BlackHawk - Postmarked Birmingham (Official Video)

[@kevinbrewer2141]

I miss music like this. The stuff on the radio will never compare to this.

[@nathanmuckala2265]

This was the best song to come out at the time at least in my mind.

[@stormcrow7698]

That's a matter of perspective. But I agree blackhawk in general was top notch.

[@kennethmontalvo789]

Amen

[@zoeziaya2969]

very true

[@nancyfaircloth3224]

I do also. Blackhawks was s great group. I worked for BMG music and this is one of the groups that was on our lable. I miss that job.

[@tiorafa3234]

Make country music great again

[@frankngai9736]

Frank from East Africa the 1990s and 1980s were the golden age of country music.I hope i will start a radio station nd Tv that would just pray thsse low tempo to mid tempo country music ballads all night long. ❤❤

"She never mentioned Alabama, so I don't understand " ...Right in the feels.

[@melvinsmiley5295]

Yeah…this was so well done. The lead singer’s voice is like no other I have ever heard and their harmonies are Amazing. Such an underrated group…fantastic.

[@michaelsoost6493]

In my opinion, this masterpiece seems to be massivly underrated.

[@Nathan-xj4bm]

it sure is I was 17 when this song came out. in my opinion top 5 of Blackhawks best songs

[@steines70]

Still my favorite country band of all time.

[@pammydunham293]

Great music. The best group by far. Such great harmony ❤️❤️❤️

[@yallainrite3658]

This video guts me every time. Remarkable in every way. The lyrics, the singing and the story of the video. How many men and women have lived this story?

[@Albertjonte]

i lived it from the childs point of view

[@donh106]

I was forced to sign papers because a father doesn't stand a chance with Catholic Charities

[@truthseeker1181]

A country classic from really a group of Yankee guys that carried the country torch as good as anyone! This band has never gotten the praise it should get, great voices and great lyrics!

[@joe800096]

Absolutely, they never reached the highest of success that they truly deserved

[@stormcrow7698]

I bet if they played it on modern country radio it would be an instant hit.

[@pallmall5495]

@@stormcrow7698 Sadly this is too country for modern country radio.But I remember a time when this was considered too pop to be country.But damn fine band in my opinion.

[@DarkKnight-q2d]

Can’t wait to go see this band live in March. My favorite Country band and in my top 10 favorite bands of all time. My dad got me hooked into them as a young kid and he would always play their albums he has of them and we’d always sing to the songs together. One of the biggest nostalgic bands of my life. Been listening to them a lot recently since my family got our tickets for a Christmas present. One of the best presents I’ve ever gotten because it’s something my whole family will get to go to together and will be a memory I’ll never forget.

[@raulrallos9882]

The blending of voices is soTouching

I love there harmony.

I sure do miss these voices. Blackhawk had it all. Saw them in 1997, still do remember that show. They sound the same or better live, no monkey business on the recordings. These guys could sing , nothing like this in today's music

[@SheerMayhem]

They're still doing shows at county fairs. I'm gonna see them for the 3rd time in July!

[@muleyboy559]

One of my all time favorite groups. Got to see them here at our zoo one night with a girl I was dating. Such a fun outdoor concert.

[@j.bullelk1603]

Saw Blackhawk play live in the early 90's, ironically they played in the Blackhawk arena in Salina, Utah. There was a dance following the concert..good times... great music!

[@danrollins5228]

If there was ever a golden flower in a field of weeds...Wow! The lyrics, rhythm wow! Where the usual musician takes that shortcut with a simple splattered painting... BlackHawk, you made a work with such detail and beauty that hits a personal note with a piece of history. Awesome work!

[@MobileCrimeFighter]

First Band ever to meet and go to hear them play at the fairgrounds in Indiana. That was so many years ago. Still one of my favorite bands of all time. I love most of their songs! Fan from Indiana 💕

Long ago in San Antonio I had the opportunity to see this great group. I was wanting them to do this song. Concert was over 😢. So I thought 😮. An lo an behold they came back out I didn't know they had heard me say "post marked Birmingham " Van looked over at me said this ones for you cowboy. 😢😢. They did it that was one great night.

This is an example of a group of guys that are actually very talented singers not like the stars of today that they slap together , auto-tune and tell you this is who you are 'Supposed to like'

Very strange. I noticed this was posted a day ago. Once in a long while I look this song up for obvious reasons (not totally the same, no letter, it was through people and it was Michigan not Alabama). Strange it's dated one day ago... lol, rest is pretty much the same

A two page letter written on Ramada stationery, dated April22. She asked me not to hate her, said she's sorry, but leaving's what she felt she had to do. I really don't think songwriting can get any better than that.

This video makes no sense. What does adopting a kid have to do with going to Birmingham

[@ffsteelvol]

I take it she gave up the baby at birth and after several years wanted to see what she looked like and how she’s living.

[@La_Ru-yg8es]

This video is very triggering for adoptees and natural mothers. More adoption propaganda. Super, super disappointed in a band I've admired since the nineties. Read into it more. Look at the statistics, before you go spreading feel good, happy sappy propaganda. I refuse to assign this meaning to an otherwise beautiful song. The video comes close to ruining. Now let the adopters, the "birth mothers" still drinking the Kool-Aid, and the adoptees who've not yet begun the deconstruction/decolonization process chime in to scold me and "school" me. With the same talking points, platitudes, and outright falsehoods I've heard all my life. There's an entire army of us determined to end adoption as we know it, aka legalized lies, in the US. Adoption won't cure your infertility. You are not entitled to a child because you want one. Look up what the Bible says about coveting!! And go to therapy.
