"How The Hell Can A Person Go To Work In The Mornin, Come Home In The Evenin and have Nothin To Say" maybe the finest words ever written. RIP John Prine
I would say the part that hits me is ain't much to look at just a free rambling man this whole song is sweet sound to the soul
Absolutely riveting performance..
I am crying and I agree
“ I Ain’t done nothin since I woke up today” …
❤
RIP John Prine, one of the most underrated singer song writers of my generation.
Not on Canada's east coast he's up there with Dylan & neil.young RIP JOHN.
I miss Steve more. He spread sunshine. John is rather somber
Montgomery Alabama; Montgomery is the capital city of Alabama. The Black Granite Civil Rights Memorial and adjacent exhibition center commemorate the Civil Rights Movement. Martin Luther King, Jr. preached at the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, a hub for the Montgomery bus boycott. Close by is the domed, 1850s Alabama State Capitol. East of downtown, the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts displays porcelain and American and African art.
Much respect.
People that dont rate him... dont matter.
It's a damned shame COVID got John Prine, along with so many others.
R.I.P. cowboy.
Quite true-
Man her voice is like a fine wine. Every year adds something special and unique to it.
Saw her last night in Boise. Amazing voice and range.
John was a big part of my life since 71' YOU REST EASY JOHN PRIME!
All I ever wanted to be in this life was Bonnie Raitt
"I love you Bonnie"
"I love you John"
Every single time I listen to this I end up crying. I love when John says "I love you Bonnie" at the end. They were such good buddies for decades.
Same, I cry every single time.
Every damn time
Me too
I know I felt the same way. He was a very sweet man and they had a gorgeous relationship for 50 years. And I liked that you noticed that that was especially sweet
Well, where do I start my relationship with John prime from the 70s? But the main thing is John prime prime. I keep saying prime. Well, that's voice text. I aint gonna correct it old job. John Prine got your feelings and you knew he had them. He grabbed up on your feelings hair and he pulled up on him a little bit. And he didn't like it at first. And then you was like d*** what happened to me. That's what he used to say.
Anyway, anyway, John pr. I. N. E! Figured out, not from Kentucky. From Chicago. Love you, John prime PRI NE.
Love the way Bonnie pulls back, vocally, when John is singing. She has such a strong, clear voice that could easily overshadow his .... but the graceful and respectful person she is, kept it soft. How beautiful, both of these people. Love her, and miss him terribly.
She harmonizes so beautifully. What a talent.
It's his fuckin song guey
It's his fuckin song guey
He’s one of the best ones that Covid took from us.
Congratulations to Bonnie Raitt on her win of the 2023 Grammys .
Thank You John and Bonnie …..a treasured duet …now and forever !!!
Tears in my eyes, we miss you John.
Back in 1971 I went to see and hear John Prine in a small club on Congress Ave, Austin, Texas. John did several songs before saying of someone he wants us to see, "Welcome Bonnie Raitt". The first song they sang together that evening was "Angle From Montgomery"
John was only 24 when he wrote this song, amazing. Wonderful how sensitively Bonnie balances her voice when John leads. Look up and listen to his original version of this tune, then find these two singing it together when they were young. Beautiful, thank you both, John Prine and Bonnie Raitt.
This fact blows my mind every time I see it! 24? Gtfo… from a woman’s perspective? Beyond all of us all the time. Rest up, John.
It's crazy, isn't it? Kris Kristofferson said “He’s twenty-four years old and he writes like he’s 220.”
Rest In Peace John Prine. You left a trail of stars in your wake.
That's not supposed to happen. God trump,pope anybody but John Prime. Hell no nooo
So well said
Such a sin. Brillant songwriter. I have loved John's music since the early 70's. Met him and Bonnie Raitt one summer in the 70's at the Phila Folk Festival. One of my more memorable experiences.
❤️
Yes Kathleen-you are kind!
John was certainly a child that grew old, gracefully and gratefully. He hung around long enough to teach a generation, even two to sing songs of the soul. As loved as he was, and still is, he conveyed a spirit of loneliness so deep you've got nothing to say. But John had plenty to say and these things will be said for generations to come.
That's exactly why I love him. He captures the feeling of loneliness and loss just profoundly. I feel like Patty Griffin has continued that tradition with an eerily similar energy and feel. They know my internal landscape, both of them.
@@IlaughedIcried so true, so true...so achingly true.
Yeah, I can appreciate that.
Well, said. The other artist who was like him and before him was Hank Williams, Sr. He even exceeded him in how he sadly lived his life.
Tony, you expressed and articulated that so well.
John ain't never coming back but he never left
Listening while in hospital with Covid. Thank you John Prine! RIP
Ironic. Feel better, and enjoy the music. Cheers
Rip Gina Spalding. 1968 - 2024 🙏
There's everything to love about this song and this performance. A perfect example of the best of Americana. But two things impressed me most. One was how unabashedly John sings the female gender-specific lyrics without so much as batting an eye. The other is the harmony Bonnie chooses to sing with John. So respectful and complimentary. Years of experience singing this classic gives her the ability to do so. Simply wonderful!
Her respect and ability to sing complimentary to him like that was so amazing. Agreed!
Oh yes- also agree so much!! RIP John, you were always a giant slice of wonderful American humor in music! Miss you SO MUCH - still love you too, Bonnie, as ever! ❤
I may be wrong, but I thought John basically gave this song to Bonnie as a gift, at any rate it doesn't matter great harmony, and Bonnie made it work with him, with respect. One of my favorites!
RIP John Prine - John Prine was living proof that nice guys do sometimes exist in the world. He was musician, but he was also a great poet.
how the hell can a man wake up in the morning write such great songs do the same in the evening and do the same the very next day. top man john prine
I have never seen Bonnie Raitt do the same arrangement twice on this song (at least on YT). I like how she went understated doing the lower harmony, which gave more prominence to John Prine's voice. The respect they have for each other is so evident, and the talent they give us is unmatched!
She is a killer open tuning slide guitarist and I think one of the best most versatile female interpretive singers ever. No one has that timbre. No one has as rich a vibrato. She does glissando as well ad Streisand
@@robertlee8042 And doesn't the news of John Prine's death just suck? I'm getting really pissed at this virus. Thank God for John Prine. The music world lost one of the deepest souls in the universe.
So True, RIP John ..
She is a class act.
And it seemed like she made the adjustment on the fly when they got to the chorus the second time around! That’s awesome musicianship and respect for old John. Rest In Peace, old man. See you there, soon.
"I love you, Bonnie" tears me up when she answers. Everytime.
E V E R Y time. I don't really believe/think this, 'cuz I know human beings are individuals, but part of me feels that if this doesn't make you cry, or at least a bit 'emotional,' you're either 1) Too young to know better, or 2) Some kinda cyborg. At this level, it ain't even about music anymore. It's meta. Prine & Raitt forever...
If this doesn't put a lump in your throat...you'd better check your pulse. RIP John. What a legacy you have left - both personally and musically. One of the greatest singer/songwriters of a generation. That little, impish grin that you would share with other artists and your audience, that was so full of respect and admiration and an awesome sense of humour. Condolences to Fiona and your boys. "Well it took me years to get those Souvenirs, and I don't know how they slipped away from me." 🎶❤️✌️❤️🎶🇨🇦
John Prine was a blessing. His music and soul stay with me. Gratitude.
Prine true legend bless up🙏❤️‼️
We were lucky to live during the best music ever produced. 65- 74'
U got that right awesome song
❤
I might be old, but I saw most of the best bands!
Pray for John. He is an American treasure.
A-men. Have been doing so since I heard the news.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏽
Heard he’s now in Stable condition...
He will make it! The world needs him. We love you so much john!
He is in all truth and likelihood a world treasure.transcending even the likes of Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash.I first saw John in 1969.He absolutely transformed my outlook on every thing in life.He has inspired me to be better for all mankind and I think of him everyday especially now.Indeed I pray for him.
John Prine is one of those very special artists whose fame and popularity will continue to grow through the eons.
Bonnie and John . . . . two legends who never forgot where they came from
He's been one of my best friends since I was 17. I'm 65 now. He has comforted me for 47 years. Feel like I lost my brother. I love you, pal.
Just give me something I can hold on to to believe in this living is just a hard way to go
"Don't bury me down in the cold cold ground..." Don't worry John, you are always buried in our hearts, where it's always warm.
Love how you said this. My sentiments exactly.
nicely put...
What a lovely thing to say. Don't know you but I like you.
On June 22, 2020 there are 74 lost souls who didn't like this classic John Prine classic.
Im so sorry to hear that
How dare anyone thumb down this....you wouldn't know talent if it was sitting on your face...R.I.P. John...angel on earth, now in heaven...
im a fan of bonnie.and heard her talk of john prine many times im so glad she did started to listen to john and cant get enough of his music . thanks bonnie and thanks to jhon prine for some wonderful songs.
Amazing. Rest in Peace John. You showed the world your music
Didn't he though
no pretense, no show off just great music...rest in peace John Prine
Rest In Peace John.... We love you and we miss you Brother.... 💖
Just four months ago. This is magical. Hard to imagine he is gone. God bless, John. You left us your music and it is so sweet.
His music may be sweet, but it is also smart.
Uh. Gone? Ain't "gone".
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever made I watched Bonnie perform it many times and never get tired of hearing it Thank you 🙏
I hate country music but this song just hits man. It's glorious.
Two American treasures. It should be illegal for that much talent to be on stage together. 🙂
Two treasures. I’m a huge fan of both. This songs been in my set list for decades, never gets old! Miss you, John. You made my life so much better.
I was so lucky to see them in concert together once a couple of decades ago. So special.
Brings tears...we love and miss you John🍻
I'm crying like a baby. Just sayin good by to too many of these type people. If God made John Prime to write this song, He made Bonnie to sing it. Thank God for both of them!!! Gods speed John. Thank you Miss. Bonnie.
We lost an icon of a songwriter ,RIP John gone but never forgotten
The reverance that Bonnie holds for John is in such evidence here !
They met in rehab and toured together I had the pleasure of seeing them in Charlotte, NC at Valentine's Poladium.
@@robertharrison8286 Two legends, one gig. Lucky you Robert!
John is with the Angels now. May he Rest In Peace. He was truly one of the greats. Bob Dylan doesn’t look up to many people but he looked up to John.
I hope so
Kind words from the great Bob Dylan:
"Prine's stuff is pure Proustian existentialism. Midwestern mindtrips to the nth degree. And he writes beautiful songs. I remember when Kris Kristofferson first brought him on the scene. All that stuff about Sam Stone the soldier junky daddy and Donald and Lydia, where people make love from ten miles away. Nobody but Prine could write like that. If I had to pick one song of his, it might be Lake Marie. I don't remember what album that's on," Dylan told MTV producer Bill Flanagan.
Rest easy to the best song writer to ever lift up a pen and pick a guitar....
Bonnie at 70 has not lost any of the richness in her voice. John seems like he’s finally tired. RIP
Just loved him n such beautiful music he created...always a story!
every time I listen to this the water flows from my eyes
RIP JP - To believe in this living, is just a hard way to go... =(
Bonnie's gotta be hurtin
Truth.
Gosh I miss John! Love ya Bonnie! 🤗
I have to say I Love how this Angel from Burbank looks at the man behind this Beautiful Masterpiece. I swear she wants to cry at what Father Time has taken from him. You are a Beautiful Soul Bonnie Raitt !!!
I could watch this 100 times in a row without getting tired of it.
Levon Helm summed up the perfect description of the essence of music when he said ' music is not a fad , or a style , you can make music do lots of things 'cos music don't care ! '
I come back and watch this at least every couple months. Just some magic being being made by two kindred souls.
John Prine. Bonnie Rait. Together. At the Ryman. Doesn't get much better than this.
Can't wait to see her this coming summer. John Prine was a class act. Spreading love through music.
I don't have the words to thank you, Brother. Thanks for walking me home.
As of today, 1.28.2020... there are seven people that don't have a soul... Who in God's name would down vote this?
Because some people are just dicks.
LISTEN. THOSE ARE NOT REAL RUclips VIEWERS. THEY ARE RUSSIAN BOTS AND TROLLS, JUST HERE TO SOW DISCORD AND MISERY. Don't even acknowledge them.
@@GooglePlusPages Please, stop giving them credibility.
To suggest that there are no dicks in the world is to advocate that there is no evil. Calling out dickishness is therefore doing the Lord's work.
Relax, people watching this are predominantly over 50 and their eyes are swollen from crying anyway, so it's easy to push the wrong thumb.
John Prine was something special in this world.
The BEST of America. Absolutely proud to share the planet with these people. ❤
Smoke one if you got one , we lost a giant with a true sense of humor and an amazing talent.
Such an amazing example of two incredible people complimenting each other with such respect for their talents. A pure joy to behold.
just heard John has passed away. this one really hurts, so sad
Devastated 😥
Pres. Trump There's blood on your hands!!
No you are wrong. Trump has the unnecessary blood of thousands on his incompetent hands.
@@stevecohen4209 yeah, blame him, ur a .......
Hilary would have said "what does it matter...John who ?
Take the time to listen to the lyrics of any john prine song. Pure genius
Among my most favorite lyrics of all time: "there's flies in the kitchen, I can hear em a buzzin." I think of them every summer. RIP, dear Mr. Prine. 🙏🏻
My wife and I sang this song at my 50th birthday - it was part of a personal fantasy of mine - we played his first record nearly in its entirety. Prine wrote this song, which, like many of his songs, features vivid lyricism, but Bonnie Raitt really made it her own, and when they sing it together it is really special. As I turned 50, I really felt the line .."the years they just flow by like a broken down dam." Thanks John Prine and Bonnie Raitt - you are two of the really good ones.
Hugs
My goal was always to go listen to John live. Never made it. I can truthfully say that on half a dozen occasions as someone who suffers from suicidal depression I got in the car fully intending to kill myself and then I turned on John's music and got so interested in listening to it and singing along with him and his songs which touched my soul, and his songs brought me back from the brink. I just wish I could have done the same for him. Vanderbilt saved me from AMML and I thought they would save John from Covid as well but it wasn't meant to be. I owe him a great debt. What's left of my life. Bonnie Raitt said that he was the closest thing we had to Mark Twain living today (a year before he died) and now I know that the representative of 60,000 folks on the Hillbilly Highway in Chicago produced a great writer, not of books, but of stories set to music. RIP John.
Hey Professor, I just saw your comment apparently from a year ago. Are you still with us? I'm even more disappointed to see not a single person was compelled to reach out than I am with the GOP. Maybe not my business pard but I'd appreciate if you'd let me know. Thanks
Does not get any better than this
This song is like a tattoo: it stays with you forever. Thanks, Mr. Prine.
Not quite. John's songs will never embarrass you as you age.
@@4orrcountry You've got that right!
Aw man, so sweet thank you both, he's always with me bonny like you, happy paddy's day ☘️🎶🎼🎶💚♥️ Billy x
I'm old now. This is beautiful.
Her father John was a great musical performer. He had an operatic voice and was the star of the musical "Oklahoma"
This was angels protecting angels and outlaw dreamers.
The passing of a legend. Rest In Peace, John Prine.
Absolutely nothing better than these two singing this song. Nothing. Peace, John. You done good.
I’ve seen both of MY favourite musicians and I swear, even on my death bed, they’ll be two of my favourite memories. My Mama used to play Bonnie’s “Love Has No Pride” every Sunday…just non stop brilliant music on her stereo; John Prine, Tim Buckley, Linda Ronstadt, Melissa Manchester, Fleetwood Mac, Phoebe Snow…the 70s were THEE BEST.
Thanks for sharing your life with us John. R.I.P.
Can't imagine how Bonnie feels right now, what a loss.
His wife problebly misses him more
Such an amazing song!! But every song he wrote was my favorite. 💔
Real music from the heart and soul.
I believe that's the best recording I've ever heard this song done. Previously I preferred his solo version from his first album, but the duet really worked this time. God do I miss him!
Mann some drunken gentleman told me to listen to this and I had to open a beer after hearing it. Great vibes
Reat in peace, beautiful deep soul, Mr. John Prine.
Rest in Peace, John. Heaven just got a little brighter today. We will always play your music, hear your voice and your words. You will always be with us.
My god I love this song. Bonnie is fantastic, and Prine well he is Prine, what else can you say.
I cry every time I hear this song. As signature tune to the times of our lives. Strong memories of happier times when life was clear and simple.
R.I.P. John Prine - The memory and the love lives forever. Into the universe it will fly..and be a wave into the ocean of forever.
Rest in Peace, John Prine. I'm glad Bonnie Raitt got to acknowledge you and your brilliance at the 2020 Grammy Awards.
I can't stop listening to these two and crying. And I am not a Weeper!
I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that he’s no longer with us.
Another year has passed since his died.
I'm grateful on the Eve of my Birthday that I've had his music in my life all these years!
Hopefully you are Resting in Peace and playing in Gods bar band!
I love you John!

He was that polite singing mailman. One of the good guys. He'd already endured so much pain, even had a chunk removed from his neck. No one deserves to die from coronavirus, but damn it all, did we have to lose John? Angel From Montgomery has been a song I've always loved, but now it's become some kind of anthem and reminder of these Covid-19 days. RIP John Prine, the world is a little less sunny without you. Bonnie, you're a treasure. .
That’s what you call perfection! No one out there today has this magic!
One of the best duets ever.
Does it seem as if Bonnie Raitt knew it was the last time they would sing this together? May his memory be for a blessing
We miss John today. He has such a great songwriting legacy.
We had the opportunity, no gift, to see/hear Bonnie Raitt and Mavis staple last night. When Bonnie did this song even she was moved to tears. What a masterful gift.
Mavis Staples was something special in this world,too.
Thank you, John. Rest easy in God's arms.
Rip buddy. Sorry can’t see too well through my tears.
no shame in that....me too
Yep, don't think I can ever hear this song again without the waterworks
