Aaaw man! Thank you for doing this tribute to the great man "JOHN PRINE"...his memory will live on forever from those like us that keep people knowing his name and great story songs he wrote and preformed . #JOHN PRINE..WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU!! ~♡~☆~♡~
It broke my heart when John Prine died, and it pissed me off that he died from a fucking disease that they called "just the flu." When the Lieutenant Governor of Texas said to just let it all happen, and that he would be happy to die to let his grandchildren not have to bear the burden, he should have volunteered to take John Prine's place.
You do understand that John Prine had severe underlying health issues, right?? BTW, if Wuhan didn't cure the flu, what do you suppose did? How many people do you know who caught the flu in the last few years?
Way to go put your dumb political bullshyte into a page honoring John Prines memory. I saw him live with the Colorado symphony just before he died. It was more than just kovid but why does that matter here pull your head out and listen to the genius of prine
Don't forget Peolsi urging people to come on down to Chinatown " everything is fine here," or Mayor Bill de Blasio urged people to go out and catch a movie just three weeks before his city became the U.S. epicenter for the coronavirus outbreak.
I've loved John Prine's music for most of my life. What a beautiful tribute to that quiet gentle spirit that we know as John Prine. You've put my feelings of loss into song. Thank you.
Good angry folk music, and an excellent example of why song titles belong in quotes...so people don’t mistakenly think that you killed John Prine, for instance...🙂
Mr. Swope, Thank you for creating this song! Such a great tribute to the philosophy and ideas/ideals of Mr. Prine. My only regret is that I did not see this when you first wrote or presented it back in 2020. I plan to look deeper into your music. Thank You, and Good Luck.
Traveling in Europe while international flights from china were still happening may have killed him. He insisted on doing a non profitable concert in Paris. After the concert he canceled his tour hung out in Paris a few days and then returned home for emergency hip surgery. a few days later he develops a cough and the doc says they should test him for covid since he was traveling overseas recently. Fiona was positive he was indeterminate. the rest is history. A European tour and a few fun days in Paris likely cost him his life. We'll never know for sure, but i'd love to see someone actually connect the dots in a way that show how trump killed him.
Absolutely no way to connect the dots. Trump shut down travel from China while Pelosi and Biden called him xenophobic. The progressive left is destroying this country. Sad. And their music and comedy sucks too.
He was executed. Trump is a hero go cry about it. You sound fucking.nuts out of soul blaming trumps for some guys death. Youre a retard. Trump has nothing to do with starting or spreading covid
AND THE SONG says it for itself too obviously a lot the guy knows whats up. "The man that killed him"?? OHHH youre really some deranged weasel liberal and think its liberal weasel song about Orange man probably. Your buddy got killed by Trump but it wasnt a bs made up virus it was point blank range style
It was a great song indeed. And well written and performed. But I want to remind everyone about the truth. John and Fiona both contracted Covid while in Ireland, not the U.S,. I'm not saying Trump did everything correct, but he isn't responsible.
@Martin Riley Or...you can blame the actual source of the problem which is the Wuhan lab funded by the U.S. government under Fauci's approval. But then again, you'd have to get rid of your TDS to do that. Oh and what are your thoughts on Whitmer and Cuomo?
@@jimmyb2030 Like What? All I hear from people like you is Biden better than the next Guy but you never say what good he is going. I'll tell you. Food up 120% the highest inflation since Cater. over 17 million Illegals costing us 173 billion by next year it will cost us 200 billion. It cost the average American house whole $8,000 more to live since Biden been in office. Our schools are now teaching sexuality and have phonographic books in our school libraries. the national debt at record highs over $31 trillion. shut down the largest baby formula plant . shipping pallets of baby formula to illegal immigrants at the southern border as American families struggle with empty shelves. Biden's reply was He didn't understand how big an effect Abbott plant shutdown would have on baby formula. Gas is up $2 more a lot of place I saw on the west coast more than $3. Biden’s administration sold off more than 40 percent of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, More than half is gone. WOW, Biden going some great things
John Prine did so much more good for our country than tRump ever did. I play the ukulele and wonder if you would be willing to share the chart for this song? I have written several tRump songs which are posted on my youtube channel Mary Wilde and Crazy Ukester.
This is a lazy weak take if he's blaming President Trump for John Prine's death. Prine was a cancer survivor, elderly, and a long-time smoker. He checked all the boxes as a high mortality risk for COVID. I'm a huge John Prine fan and his legacy lives on. This song? Not so much.
I agree 100% (and see my comment above) I would have added "lazy" as well to my comment if I had thought of it at the time. Anyone can write a song taking the path this songwriter did, but not too many can write a song using irony, subtleness and humor to point out human foilables the way Prine did.
Good intentions but terribly misguided. I loved John Prine like everyone who loves great song writing but to blame anyone for his death is a gross injustice. Prine was on death's door for years and still travelled overseas and got sick in Europe. There are plenty of others to blame for covid.
So, ... Riddle me this, Ted..... If someone IS sick, and gets hit by a drunk driver, you are saying, in effect, the drunk driver is NOT responsible???? Are you from Planet GOP????
No I'm from planet earth. You must be from the planet called 'Everything That's Wrong With My Pathetic Life is the Fault of Donald Trump ' . Please seek professional help there's still hope for you to live a normal life.
Exactly but people with TDS will say anything to push the narrative that Trump is responsible for all the troubles of the world, and they wonder why sane people laugh at them
John McCutcheon wrote "The Night that John Prine Died", a beautiful tribute to our favorite songwriter. Check it out. It's a lot less political and far more poetical that this thing by Jimmy Swope.
I checked out the song that you mentioned by John McCutcheon. I have to agree with you is a beautiful tribute. And I like it even better than this ballad by Jimmy Swope‘s. But Mr. McCutchen is not afraid to get political. Check out ruclips.net/video/phY6Jqi0mrU/видео.html.
I've listened to John Prine for years, but just to be contrarian here, I think, as much as I am no fan of Donald Trump, the truth is that he had traveled throughout Europe before getting back home, and he was circling around in a hotbed of covid all over the place. Blaming this on Trump is a bit of a cheap shot or at the very least very lazy thinking. I'd be interested in what JP has to say about it, but given his last album, I think he'd say it's time to rest. I hope he's smoking that 9 mile long cigarette.
Fiona, his widow had a few things to say about Trump: "Can someone get that fucking idiot off the stage. My husband died on his watch" and "you have not truly listened to his body of work if you think that John had anything but distain for the modern Republican Party and all they represent.Trump is the ultimate manifestation of their self-serving hypocrisy."
M cubed.... You have no awareness of what is known as "artistic license"? I do NOT feel it is a "cheap shot" when Trumpski stated few few people would die, and it would be over in a few weeks, that MILLIONS died due to his neglect and inaction.
Your reply is the cheap shot. TFG is a POS, responsible for 100's of thousands of preventable deaths. And that's just one of his many crimes. May he rot in prison, where he belongs.
It's been just short of a year since we've lost our Singing Mailman. Since his passing, two moments proved cathartic: first, casting my ballot last November and second, listening to Mr. Swopes' tale spun of true heartbreak caused by the emptiness of an evil, narsacisttic excuse of a man. Thank you for your words, sir! #istillmissjohnprine
No mention of China where the virus actually originated...ODD..I love John Prine and has music but I believe blame needs to put on the place who started this whole mess..Not deflect to political adverseries.
Yup cigs,coke,booze ......he was rode hard and put away wet for 50 years.....Phillip Morris was the man who killed john prine no Trump......but libtards never the truth get in the way of a good story
What a ratty song. So ignorant and really sad you made a song about the great John Prine in such am awful context. I really hope this video isn't monetized. The man that killed John Prine wasn't an American, unless you're referring to Dr. Fau....
Well, if you actually care about the truth, read 'The Real Anthony Fauci,' by RFK, Jr., no lover of President Trump. But a lover of the truth, unlike this fella in the video.
Im so glad to see this,someone speaking the truth,From day one ive been saying trump killed J.P. and have not heard anyone else say that.He also killed a fine man i worked with before we both retired ,with whom i would call my Rudy.I miss them both terribly.Thank you Jimmy.You have a new fan.
Major irony here that Jimmy has to rely on blatant vitriol and hate to make a point about a person: those are tools his hero John Prine never needed, nor felt, when making his observations about people.
Clearly no one is as good a writer as Prine, his dis tracks were a bit more subtle of course like I shared with you on the Facebook page. Fiona is a bit more direct, however, and would probably love this song. At Trump: "Can someone get that fucking idiot off the stage. My husband died on his watch", and she also said: "you have not truly listened to his body of work if you think that John had anything but distain for the modern Republican Party and all they represent.Trump is the ultimate manifestation of their self-serving hypocrisy."
Mr. Swope speaks the Truth, whether it fits YOUR liking or not..... You obviously have never listened to much of JP's music..... Sam Stone; Your Flag Decals Won't Get You into Heaven Anymore, Some Humans Ain't Human.... to name only a very few. And Trumpski, who stated it would be over in weeks and no one would die from it.... Yes, I believe in my heart that Trumpski DID kill John Prine and MILLIONS of others by his neglect.
@@dennischef2155 The Chinese government are the ones who killed millions of people by its deceit and neglect. Not anyone in America, Trump or otherwise. Sorry bud.
Political hahaha😂 if you got to blame then blame yourself for not speaking the truth in the beginning of your song! Btw blame solves nothing! What a disgrace to John
I don't know. John introduced his song Your Flag Decal Won’t Get You Into Heaven Anymore song with, “Here’s an old song with a new recipient. This one goes out to our new fuhrer, Adolph Benito Trumpitini.” I think he would have had a chuckle with this one.
I'm 70 years old now, and the first JP song I heard was Sam Stone - The Viet Nam war was still raging and my lottery number was 32 - It was eerie - Been a huge fan every since and own pretty much the full Handsome Johnny collection - I've been off grid in Alaska and no tv for most of 40 years - TV is your enemy - It's a modern version of a scrying mirror (look it up) - These lyrics typify Handsome Johnny's vibe to me, not angry belligerent ones - "Blow up your TV, throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
Try and find Jesus on your own"
Gotta go now and work on my potato patch - Have a safe summer everyone
Thank you for saying it in a song. People will understand what went on much better.
Love this. John is now singing with the Angel's at The tree of forgiveness having a beautiful cocktail and a 9 mile long cigarette. RIP JOHN PRINE.
HMMM "forgiveness tree crap you say.........Know about something the rest of us don't?

It broke my heart when John Prine died, and it pissed me off that he died from a fucking disease that they called "just the flu." When the Lieutenant Governor of Texas said to just let it all happen, and that he would be happy to die to let his grandchildren not have to bear the burden, he should have volunteered to take John Prine's place.
I have to wonder what side of the fence John would've been on about co-vid. I bet it was the irony in dying of nothing - that finally got him....
You do understand that John Prine had severe underlying health issues, right??
BTW, if Wuhan didn't cure the flu, what do you suppose did? How many people do you know who caught the flu in the last few years?
Way to go put your dumb political bullshyte into a page honoring John Prines memory. I saw him live with the Colorado symphony just before he died. It was more than just kovid but why does that matter here pull your head out and listen to the genius of prine
Don't forget Peolsi urging people to come on down to Chinatown " everything is fine here," or Mayor Bill de Blasio urged people to go out and catch a movie just three weeks before his city became the U.S. epicenter for the coronavirus outbreak.
This was also my immediate reaction when John died. He survived bouts with cancer and record companies only to be stopped by tfg's incompetence.
Such a great tribute to such a great man John was. I wish he does well with his band.....in heaven.
Very well done! I won't forget April 7, 2020.
Repeating what I said on the official Prine page - thank you, sir. He would indeed have been proud. Sweet revenge without fail
Everything I feel is articulated so beautifully here.
Kendall C Agree so much!
SO agree!
That's because you have TDS. Seek help for your illness.
John Prine tried to really break the syllables up to the melody too. Right in his style!
The most honest and admirable emotion with which to respond to this USian “leader” is ANGER. Good song, a worthy tribute to J Prine.
