    Jeff Daniels is a better singer and picker than half the people who make a living at it. Did not know he had this talent until I saw the Kelly Clarkson clip. Great job!!

    A Tom T. Hall classic for sure. His wife Dixie passed away. Same as my wife Shannon Burns pictured here on the left. I cry, I visit her grave everyday. Have for two years now. I set upon the prayer bench there at her gravesite. I tell her I miss the U in Us. If you love somebody enough, your heart breaks each day when they are gone, you know. That is why where my heart was there is now just a hole. And you do not know what lonely is, until their name is chisled in stone.

    This is one series that is always worth revisiting and it doesn’t age. It’s always relevant. This was such a fitting end. Through all of the struggles and angst, it showed us in the end exactly the way the show began… that if we come together we can be the best again. As we should.

    If you love somebody enough
    You'll follow wherever they go
    That's how I got to Memphis
    That's how I got to Memphis
    If you love somebody enough
    You'll go where your heart wants to go
    That's how I got to Memphis
    That's how I got to Memphis
    I know if you'd seen her you'd tell me 'cause you are my friend
    I've got to find her and find out the trouble she's in
    If you tell me that she's not here
    I'll follow the trail of her tears
    That's how I got to Memphis
    That's how I got to Memphis
    She would get mad and she used to say
    That she'd come back to Memphis someday
    That's how I got to Memphis
    That's how I got to Memphis
    I haven't eaten a bite
    Or slept for three days and nights
    That's how I got to Memphis
    That's how I got to Memphis
    I've got to find her and tell her that I love her so
    I'll never rest 'til I find out why she had to go
    Thank you for your precious time
    Forgive me if I start to cryin'
    That's how I got to Memphis
    That's how I got to Memphis

    I'll say this, Daniels has a pretty decent voice, but this scene is a great example of why I hated this series. So... we just gonna believe that this news guy and the rest of the team are also expert musicians? I usually expect crap like this in high fantasy epics; where my imagination is stretched to the point where it almost breaks. I once heard someone describe Sorkin's stuff as liberal masturbatory fantasy, where the characters are pretty much perfect human beings that seem to be genius experts in everything. LMAO
    At any rate Tom T Hall died today and I was searching for some Hall videos for this song and this popped up. I'd forgotten this scene and like I mentioned above, Daniels actually seems to have a pretty decent voice. I wonder if or how much he's into music but I find it a little ironic that these left-wing characters end the show on one of Tom's iconic tunes. I'd say it's a testament to his writing ability. Ah anyway, rest in peace Tom.

    • @drowninggeese
      @drowninggeese Год назад +1

      Hot take: a decent amount of middle age men know a bit of guitar. I’m not surprised that Will does, as it’s covered in plot but also because we know that he’s been going through an identity crisis.
      The percussion in this scene wouldn’t be hard to anyone who had done band as a kid (even if they were a woodwind or something)
      The grandson is literally described as a savant so we don’t need to worry about him
      The only other character doing anything impressive musically speaking here is Jim, who fits the adult man knowing basic guitar thing from earlier. He is also playing backup from a well known song, so it’s not too much of a reach to assume he picked it up on the road
      Sorkin’s work is definitely liberal masturbation, but not because the liberals don’t have flaws. It’s because the republicans are typically shown as sane
