OMG the cute factor here is off the scale. But hearing a child sing this song, there's something magical about the innocence of that questioning of life we all have. Amazing.
Another amazing family doing precious things together that'll live on for generations to come. I hope and pray that you'll be an inspiration and role model for others... Growing up in eastern Kentucky especially during my time of which I'm now 64, this is how our lives used to be and hopefully some of you can chime in with atleast an amen... Thank you for sharing your amazing talents with the world... Please stay safe, happy and healthy...
First time I’ve ever heard this song and I don’t think I want to hear anyone else do it. I love the young ladies voice and the guitars, bass, drum, and accompanying voices were so perfect. For me this is a melancholy mystery. But the mystery is made a bit brighter by such sweet music.
Such a perfect rendition of a beautiful Iris DeMent song, sung by the most angelic voice I've ever heard. Fabulous job, sweet Manaia. Your whole family is the most talented and pleasant listening experience there is, bar none. I love you guys.
Watching your family gives me hope that love and music are alive in this world....you are the family that I would have loved to grow up in...may God bless you all...
The whole family is very talented but she is my favorite. Her voice is so sweet and beautiful. She touches my heart. Her voice is a good "prescription" for loneliness and depression. THANK YOU YOUNG LADY!
Menaia is becoming a great singer!. I loved this one featuring her singing. She might be tiny but she is a giant when it come's to singing. I love her voice and she tries so hard to hide her stage fright.I love watching the French family band but Menaia's participation is what I look for. Thanks for giving her a hug Camille, she needs a lot of that to build her confidence.
It is hard to believe that such a perfect job of singing is coming from such a young lady as this. Also, when I think back--every song she has ever done has been simply divine. I am totally anticipating anything she may bless us with in the future. P.S.--The back-up accompaniment was perfect too. Mum and Dad know exactly how to display Manaia’s talent.
Manaia this little sweetheart can sing pure graceful and heavenly I just love when she hits the high notes. I love to see and hear the whole band's performance. Thanks for sharing Jesus loves you all and so do I.
Hard to find the right words for this young lady but I think PRECIOUS is just right. She makes my heart smile and think of my daughter when she was young and sang. Wow I love those high notes and inflection in her voice. Very Best to you all !
What a precious family. So humble and so sincere in their enjoyment of music and the parents have transmitted this to their talented children. Great job Manaia. Listening from Italy.
O yea she’s definitely a rising star ⭐️!!!!! The whole French family r so talented!!!!! Many blessings from MaryEster n Johnny Perez from San Antonio Texas!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💯💯💯💯💯🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼💯💯💯💯⭐️⭐️⭐️
I met a friend of Stewie the other day and he freaked that I was a great fan of these cats. I cant believe you guys chose one of my all time favorite songs!!!
Very nice. I grew up in a family band just like this. I sang, played guitar, and eventually learned to competently play 16 instruments. It is so nice to watch your family growing up and taking up the mantle of music. It will help them go far!
She did a really really nice rendition of this song in the same spirit as Iris Dement does. That was great, and everyone played fantastically. Thank-you so so much. Dan Berendt (aka Greywolf Rednight).
Good morning to you child of God. Please child of God i am pleading to you in the name of GOD to HELP me. I am an Orphan ,i need HELP from kind hearted person...
Wow Manaia also got a great Voice to can't wait to she her growup a little more she going to be to a Country Singer like her Brother Sony Fresh. My Warm Hello to you From South Florida area love you guys
Good morning to you child of God. Please child of God i am pleading to you in the name of GOD to HELP me. I am an Orphan ,i need HELP from kind hearted person...
She has an excellent voice. Keep up the good work! Also - there is nothing that sounds as beautiful as family harmony! Brian wilson was right about harmony: 'Sounds like angels'.
Greetings on a cool night in Cambodia's northern border. Manaia is getting so big! And Sonny is taller than Mom and almost as tall as Dad! This was a great song. She is getting so good!
there are 4 people out there that doesnt appreciate what they are hearing here. You guys are my number one favorite entertainers now surpassing all the great past country singers. I just cant get enough of your music.
Good morning to you child of God. Please child of God i am pleading to you in the name of GOD to HELP me. I am an Orphan ,i need HELP from kind hearted person...

Great job as always , love this family ! I feel sorry for the thumbs down... apparently they have nothing to be proud of. Thank you for the post 👏 👏👍🤠 May God continue to bless all of you !
Anyone that gave this performance a thumbs down doesn't have any taste for music at all. I learned from my daughter to appreciate all music regardless of whether you like it or not. If you don't like something find something you do like because no one forces you to listen to something you don't like.
We here, are truly pleased this performance has been transformed to Manias’ own VIDEO...was so troublesome to locate and bring up previously. You’ve made my life easier and daughter the happiest person I know. Love you guys
Oh man I'm really a French Family fan. If you haven't read how they ended up in Nashville you should. I also noticed what a masterful job of songwriting this song is. I don't If this was Iris's intent but this is such a perfect song for a child to sing. Children can't be bothered with dogma they are just going to live and love. Just beautiful.
This young lady nailed this Iris DeMent song. You're really talented, and you're going to be very well known. Keep singing, and you're going to go far in the music business!
OH MY WORD... WE WERE SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE BEEN IN NASHVILLE TO HAVE SEEN YOU ALL IN PERSON...❤️❤️🎼🎼... CAROLYN AND I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED IRIS DEMENT... WE SAW HER IN PERSON ABOUT 26 YEARS AGO, AND THEN ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO SHE SANG AT A VENUE FIFTEEN MILES FROM OUR HOME.. SHE HAD WRITTEN THAT SONG YEARS AGO...❤️❤️🎼🎼.. AND MANIA (SP?).... WHAT A SWEET JOB YOU DID... CAROLYN'S HEART WAS MELTED... SEE YOU IN APRIL...E & C ..❤️❤️
OMG the cute factor here is off the scale. But hearing a child sing this song, there's something magical about the innocence of that questioning of life we all have. Amazing.
Pure incredible beauty... This is why we wake up 'in the morning hoping we will hear something like this. God Bless.
she is a growing star--- and i can see mom and dad are real proud....
Yes, Dad is bursting if you look closely.
Wondering how old she is now . She has a great voice.
You Just Made An Old Man Cry . In A Good Way That Is
Another amazing family doing precious things together that'll live on for generations to come. I hope and pray that you'll be an inspiration and role model for others...

Amen brother.
Some of my favorite parts of these videos is Mom’s smile!
Manaia’s stage presence gets stronger every performance. She is delightful!

Τι ομορφη μελωδική οικογένεια και η μικρή χαριτωμένη μπράβο σε όλους σας, και γω ειμαι από οικογένεια μουσικών !καλά Χριστούγεννα ❤
Her voice has grown significantly since her last recording! And she already had phrasing beyond her years.
Wonderful. Keep on going.

Kudos to Mom and Dad for such beautiful bringing up and perfecting their kids talents.
The whole family is very talented but she is my favorite. Her voice is so sweet and beautiful. She touches my heart. Her voice is a good "prescription" for loneliness and depression. THANK YOU YOUNG LADY!

It would be awesome to sing with them. I sing and play guitar. I have cerebral palsy but I don't let it stop me from doing what I love.
Oh man I'm really a French Family fan. If you haven't read how they ended up in Nashville you should. I also noticed what a masterful job of songwriting this song is.
