John Prine, Blaze Foley and Townes Van Zandt Meet in One Song

- Post-Covid, life shifted dramatically. Though we once united, now we've drifted apart. Selfishness prevails, cities transform, and technology reigns, yet I yearn for simplicity. Amidst the allure of progress, I find solace in the small joys we've lost. That's why I penned this song, longing for the simple life amidst a complex world.

Lyrics
Want to raise my kids in the country side
Riding horses in the muddy ground
Crossing borders moving round and round
Wifey will get pregnant in
Narrow roads in the mountains
In the fields of sheep and chicken.
Finding treasures and minding gold
Finding stories we've not been told
Escaping the world that's been ruled
Let's get sick and have no medicine
Surviving without vaccines
Going back to when we were Sixteen
Chorus:
I want to go
To places I've never been before
With my kids and wife and live the life
Chasing the wind blow
I want to write songs
Country and blues about trees and roses
Simple lyrics guitar and rhythm
And sing all day long
In winter we'll have little snow
In spring the hard wind will blow
In summer all the troubles will go
Swim in rivers and go on hikes
Swim in lakes and ride our bikes
Same life my mother likes
Chorus:
I want to go
To places I've never been before
With my kids and wife and live the life
Chasing the wind blow
I want to write songs
Country and blues about trees and roses
Simple lyrics guitar and rhythm
And sing all day long.
Fraud should not be rewarded. You're no Townes, Blaze or Prine.
Following the legend, John Prine!
A beautiful song and so beautiful the voice and playing 🎴🎉
😍🙏🏼
Agree; refreshing
😍🙏🏼
Beautiful song 🎶, Love this 😊
😍🙏🏼
Very enjoyable. Thanks!
😍🙏🏼
Great writing, singing, music, setting! Loved it very much! John Prine and Townes Van Zandt influences are clearly there, so much so that I cried hearing this!! I was looking forward to seeing John Prine at his next performance but he passed away! I do much loved his music and just listening to him talk! Please continue your songs and music in that direction! Thank you for this song today!! ❤❤❤
We all miss him so much. He will always stay in our hearts. Such a legend that music lost.
Thank you so much for the nice words. I will do my best to keep making music that’s honest and resonates. ❤️🙏🏼
Who are you, my dear? Where have you been? This gem just served up by RUclips. I'm in love. Carrying on the beauty of lost loves, JP and Townes. Thank you.
That’s a lifting comment 😍🙏🏼
Your video followed one I was watching which was an Appalachian Acoustic Blues, so I found you by accident. I'm glad I did! Wonderful music. Gonna subscribe and look for more..
I am so glad you enjoyed it 😍🙏🏼 welcome to the family
You have really done a good job of combining Blaze and Townes! Music is so hard these. days I wish you the best ❤
Beautiful words 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Click bait
And this is how legends live on.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great song ❤
😍🙏🏼
I resonate with this message. With love from Florida.
Love from Ireland 😍🙏🏼
Old saying, never judge a book by it's cover.
Very cool, and u hear the birds singing along. Nice 🎉
Thank you very much 😍🙏🏼
@@SalahZhouri I'm not very tech savvy, old guy that enjoys.
Beautiful song, beautifully performed. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for the lovely comments
My friend that's beautiful. I been a fan of all three for over 40 yrs, and all I know is they are looking down and smiling, where have you been hiding. Come to Wilkes Barre Pennsylvania, the Kirby Center and you would pack the place. Play on.
ZOWWEE! Dude, that's fantastic.
😍🙏🏼
People don’t make this type of music anymore. Just want to be born around 60s or 70s . Life was much simpler and Music was serious. Hard to find artists like Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, Jim Croce anymore .
Will bring the simplicity back brother 😍🙏🏼
@@SalahZhouri Such a simple yet beautiful song with this amazing feeling of a time capsule. Much power to you for your future projects brother .Shine bright ❤
You said _"People don’t make this type of music anymore."_ This is untrue. But now, unlike in the 60s and 70s, you did not need to go looking for it. Try my pages, just for starters. You may find something of interest there.
Amazing what one can do with five chords. As John says on his live album, "I learned those four chords when I was fifteen and just decided not learn anymore; they sound good to me." Yes, very nice.

This is outstanding. You've got a new subscriber and a fan. Keep it up, young man, I'll be listening.
Thank you so much 🙏🏼😍
some sort of magic, i guess.
😍🙏🏼
Me too!❤
😍🙏🏼
Wonderful song! bEST OF LUCK TO YOU FOR LIVING IN THE COUNTRY!
It’s fun 😍🙏🏼
I love it and wish I could play like you someday.
Practice makes good. Thank you so much 😍🙏🏼
Very Cool, my friend, Very Cool song. :)
😍🙏🏼
Finbar Fury had a hit with this song in the late 70s early 80s. Only today I have found that it was steve Goodman who wrote it.
I guess you’ve mistaken it with a different song. This one is my composition and lyrics 🙏🏼
Love this!
TYVM ❤ talents making a comback!
Hope so 😍🙏🏼
Love it ❤ thank you for the countryside experience 😊
😍🙏🏼
So lovely, I love the lyrics ❤❤
❤️🙏🏼

Hi buddy! Thank you very much 🙏🏼

@@SalahZhouri thank you!
Ooooh perfecto 👌
😍🙏🏼
sounds more like arlo guthrie to me.
He’s a legend 😍🙏🏼
@@SalahZhouri i really enjoyed this.
The video is fine, as is the tune, but the title is intentionally misleading dropping the names of famous songwriters obviously to unfairly attract clicks. Bait and switch CLICKBAIT.
@@SalahZhouri I am pleasantly surprised you replied with courtesy, and did not delete my comment. On the other hand, it is highly disappointing you have chosen to defend your dishonesty. You are a good enough player and old enough to know better.
I am a pro player, and you cast shade on our craft with this action. None of the songwriters you mentioned are alive to admonish you for doing this, which by the way is not only immoral, but illegal as well. And it should be.
I respect your work and this action is far beneath your dignity, my misguided young brother. Check my work for my credentials. Heed what I say, Young Jedi. You insult your own work in this manner, and it is unnecessary. You are a fine player and an artist in your own right.
Again, check my own work, man. It may add credibility to my words here; offered with respect and love, from a brother-in-arms, and an elder. Ethics matter.
Unlike you, I am not in the business of marketing. And if I were, I would do it honestly. You have made a mistake here, my friend. I hope you wake up and correct your course appropriately. Your work is far better than your defense of this ruse.
Thank you for your reply, and your courtesy. I hope you take a look at my pages, comprised of mostly old-school originals and consider what I have said here. _(I began recording and performing in my teens in Hollywood in the late sixties.)_
You do not require deception to sell your work, my friend. Doing as you have speaks loudly that you think you do. I do not think you believe that, do you? I don't. Your work can easily stand upon its own merits, if you will allow it to do so. And this applies to your name-dropping hashtags as well.
Many of the people you are trying to reach with your music will find this offensive, *_ESPECIALLY_* fans of the artists you named; as well they should. Comparing your own work to that of those mentioned in this video title displays not only extreme myopic hubristic narcissism, but an unwillingness to accept their greatness which you have not achieved, making your own work look smaller than it is by comparison.
In essence, you have insulted and diminished your own work, which you are trying far too hard to promote, rather than allowing it to develop its own legs. You can try, but what you are doing here is not honest nor ethical, no matter how hard you try to pretend it is not. You not only disrespect yourself and your work, but you insult the memory and the spectacular work of those to whom you falsely claim to pay tribute. You cannot hide from this truth, my friend. This is not merely my opinion. It is reality.
The world is already filled with charlatans and does not need one more; but that does not include Prine, Foley, or Van Zandt.
It has been said that all it takes to make a true song of worth is three chords and the truth. The operative word here is TRUTH.
Namaste.

@@susangooch7087 I especially appreciate the good word. You may _(or may not)_ be aware of the AI filtering algorithm that prevents many comments from appearing on these pages; or limits their visibility to the user who posted. Above the comment section, and below the video screen there is an option labelled "Sort by" with three horizontal lines just to the left.
That is how it appears on a full computer screen. If this option does not appear on a smaller screen of a phone or mobile device, it can still be accessed, but I cannot assist in that regard. At any rate, if you click "Newest first", many hidden comments will appear on the page, INCLUDING my comment above on this thread in response to the visible brief courteous reply to my top post by *@SalahZhouri.*
I am confident you will find this of interest. If you do so but you have difficulty getting my second comment to appear, let me know, as there is another way to facilitate this. Also, you may want to check my pages as well. I have a personal vested interest in this issue.
Namaste.

@@susangooch7087 It appears my earlier, longer reply to you here on this thread is not visible. Also not visible is a comment I made in response to the first reply I got _(from _*_@SalahZhouri)._*
I just posted a comment addressing you on your video regarding this:
*Blackberry Smoke “ You Hear Georgia” ( Live )12~30,2023*
Thank you.
Cheers.
I disagree. The song clearly pays homage to those three. Are you telling me you expected to see those guys? If so, you are too simple to do well in this Life.
Jim croce
Oh man! He is so good 😍🙏🏼
Definitely not townes
Beautifully performed. MAGA 2024
trump and maga wouldn't give you the time of day. Sad.
Nicely done. Thank you. MAGA-Vet FJB
@@SalahZhouri So you support and endorse the meaning of "FJB" and support MAGA by showing your approval of those who advocate chaos, autocracy, and much worse, because they compliment your work? How disappointing.
Yes, waaaayyyy disappointing...kinda put me out of the peaceful place I was in with this song AND IT'S LYRICS. @paradisepipeco
Yes, Ma'am. I support the meaning of "FJB" and MAGA. But not like you; apparently, I disapproved of Friday's wing shot almost assassinating Donald Trump. Or would you have preferred something a little further in?
BTW: How's your Mandarin? And do you know the meaning of "projection?"
@@Billw0006
Q. _What’s the difference between a Trump Republican and a Ukrainian?_
A. _A Ukrainian defends his Capitol._
@@Billw0006 What you assume to be your clever and snarky reply isn't addressed to anyone else who posted, Junior. Are you talking to yourself, speaking of *_"projection"?_* _(My earlier comment was clearly addressed to _*_@SalahZhouri._*_ An adult can help you with the big words, Karen.)_ Run along now, and don't play with anything sharp.
You couldn't tie Prine's, Van Zandt's or Foley's shoes.
Yeah because you do it so much better😂😂😂😂😂😂 I guess haters got to hate but that kids doing a hell of a lot better than most of these assholes on screen you want to try being a helpful critic not a parasitic syphilitic😂😂 prime would have told you that to your face
He’s better than you.
He’s better than you.
@@johndeere8594 Keep repeating yourself as if it were true. I take issue when someone name drops to attract viewers, especially when the song does not past muster... "pregnant in/ chicken." C'mon. Not every song idea deserves to be shared. He is a fine finger-picker. I will give him that.
@@johndeere8594 He isn't better than me, Junior. Embwee could have perhaps been a bit more diplomatic, however the top post speaks the truth. It's a shame you're unable to accept the obvious.
pretentious pandering
Too kif..
Very enjoyable. Thanks!
😍🙏🏼
