Iris and John prine are national treasures

[@03Pisces06]

It was the perfect ending song to the series Northern Exposure. Love love love this song. Americana at its best.

[@shilohndrah]

Agree, this song was the parting gift of Northern Exposure which I love and study to this day.

[@williamjablonsky5128]

That broke me. So perfect.

[@pascalsalvatore7505]

Iris never got the recognition that she deserves...A truly lovely person and song...

[@jacklucking691]

Should have 10 million views.....how nice is this song ?

[@doctornova3015]

I wonder if she ever chokes up singing this song. It's hard for me to listen to it without tearing up. Every time I hear it I have to fight the urge to break down crying.. it just touches a weird nerve in me

[@drbombay91765]

Reminds me of my parents when they were young, We had a lot of fun! Sadly time takes its toll.

[@ronniemac2366]

Makes me smile and cry every time I hear this song

[@karenkrejci1187]

It was the last song played as the Northern Exposure series ended! It was a perfect song for it!

[@matthewreesejr595]

I love this song Iris! What an amazing tune. Played it on repeat in my head phones while framing houses all day today. So many feelings today hearing this. The best songs bring tears to my eyes and the first time I heard this I had to try not to cry! Your songs will live forever. Thank you for making a hardened man cry. Much needed release.

[@catwrangler3429]

Thanks for this Matthew. Tears stream when I hear her as well

[@antonewilliam7627]

That sweet smile to the audience says so much. Makes me smile that Iris and Greg share their lives.

[@TheBigmatt3485]

is this guitar a Furch???

[@paultaylor6053]

I really like this piece by Iris but I sense she is full of evil vengeful intent ,but then what woman is not ?,shame men have only cause to be disappointed. never the less she has a lovely voice.

[@colleenposadas8415]

How dare you!

[@randalclarke5487]

I'm sorry lol I don't get it 😕 she has a cringeworthy voice and I'm not sure what's so great about the lyrics 🤷‍♂️ are people this easily impressed????

[@fouldsie1]

Whatever or whoever floats your boat, I'm sorry for you. Iris Dement is a window on an old and beautiful singing & writing tradition, & if you can't feel that, your ears and your heart are wasted on you....

[@colleenposadas8415]

Take a long walk off a short pier

[@alansmith4729]

Excellent, well done !
