John Prine's music was — and remains — everywhere in Nashville. His influence fueled arena stars and his wisdom rang through rock clubs.
You’d be hard-pressed to catch someone in Nashville with a guitar and not hear his name echoed from the stage or one of his songs covered with fevered appreciation.Mandated self-isolation means Nashville can’t gather for a collective hug, pour a communal “Handsome Johnny” or fit into Arnold’s for a meat-and-three.Play “In Spite of Ourselves” for the moments you feel true, inescapable love.Play “Paradise” for a real-life story from rural Kentucky that may be his most celebrated.
""And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County/ Down by the Green River where Paradise lay/ Well, I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking/ Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away""You know that old trees just grow stronger/ And old rivers grow wilder every day/ Old people just grow lonesome/ Waiting for someone to say,"Hello in there, hello.
