It's Happening to You (John Prine Cover)

Prine on a roof in Oaxaca - a beautiful place to play music. I did have to do some dark magic to mix around the wind noise, but that was well worth it for the lovely evening. Special thanks to Amelia, Beth, Andrew, Bennett, Jeremy, and Laura for helping in a myriad of ways, from tripod steady-ing to shot-framing to wind-breaking.

I do believe John Prine would of loved your cover Carson!!

[@EarnestWilliamsGeofferic]

I'll never not love Carson McKee + John Prine.

[@brucezimmerman9451]

You've got that John Prine "it's just a bit of conversation - but in a song" approach down nicely. Well done.

[@1man1guitarletsgo]

That's a really good way to describe it!

[@brucezimmerman9451]

@@1man1guitarletsgo Lucky enough to have gone to high school with John - his way of speaking, singing and writing were all parts of a whole. We all sure liked him back in the day. And then later too of course. ;-)

[@Scottie1152]

Carson, I think one day your name will be a household word. Like Prine or Simon or Taylor. I have always thought so. Sing on my friend, sing on! ❤️

[@briankenome]

Or me 😁

[@fabrice94]

Playing/singing guitar outside...in front of home. This is a definition of paradise. As for me this is also pure science fiction. But Carson is here to share!!! so many thanks mister McKee, always so good for so many years now

[@Robutube1]

I'm usually pretty lukewarm about John Prine covers but this is lovely.

[@gantte]

It's Friday AND a Carson tune! Doesn't get much better!

[@milo8425]

I'd never not instantly click this. Still, glad I did.

[@backwashjoe7864]

The only ones luckier than us are Amelia, Beth, et. al. who got to be there in person. Keep making music Carson! :)

[@Homeinmygardenwithmydog]

Call me crazy but you could make a killing touring as a John Prine tribute. Someone needs to do that to keep his works alive and you seem like the perfect one to carry that torch.

[@Uff1234]

I'd pay for that. Just come to India.

[@karin82]

Handsome boi, golden voice, great backdrop. Doesnt get better.

[@jshaull]

I actually click Like before the song even starts because I know from experience that it will be great! And, again, I was right :) ! Thank you, Carson.

[@andystark5114]

I haven't read this comment but I know I like it. :)

[@crackmando62]

not cool🙄

[@skotski54]

Had not heard that Prine song before. Thank you for covering it. I'm still open for the interview if you are willing.

[@dlbstl]

🙏🤩🤷‍♀️

[@mediamannaman]

That mic MORE than makes up for any wind noise. The edge on your EQ was sharp as a razor. Beautiful!

[@carsonmckeemusic]

I was relieved, and that was *after* I mono’d the stereo recording by basically processing out the “side” mic of the mid-side configuration, which was the capsule receiving the brunt of the wind. Still held up!!

[@mediamannaman]

@@carsonmckeemusic Great work! Loved your performance. Enjoy Mexico, amigo.

[@robloxsgames8647]

I LIKE THIS SONG

[@scottjones6624]

What a great song and rendition.

[@gar949]

that hit me in the gut!!!! Its happing to me...

[@ChaseEaglesonOfficial]

What a view. Beautiful rendition and performance man!

[@dankingjr.2088]

Been cool watching you develop as a singer. Always a pleasure Carson.

[@harveyjones1955]

Great singing, Carson. I love all your songs. hj

[@GaryBoyd02]

Excellent Carson! John would be pleased.

[@howardn]

Please keep them coming Carson. ❤

[@debracook3629]

So many JPrine covers I skip over once they begin. Yours: I listened to twice! Great Job!

[@GhostontheMoor]

Nicely done, Carson. Thank you.

[@manriq47]

Carson, you just keep hitting them out of the park… and off the balcony! I think ol’ JP would’ve loved your cover. In fact, I know he would. You sing with soul and then some. When you coming back to Michigan? Cheers.~ Mark

[@user-gu1kx4qk8b]

What a voice! Who else has such a powerfull sound: please listen to Bob Dylan “Lay lady lay” from the lp “Nashville Skyline” and You have the ansvar! Thanks, Carson, for your wonderful music. Thanks from Denmark

[@imspartacvs]

Great cover Carson. Thanks for sharing the music Matt Hudson Valley, NY

[@williammartin2275]

Thank you Carson. Made me smile.

[@LB-xl5dq]

Good job!

[@harigeorgeson5885]

This is first rate Carson. And the backdrop is out of this world. (I was guessing the Hollywood Hills.)

[@ronaldszudy8184]

Great choice, Carson. A fine song and presentation that is touching. Best wishes.

[@yugomix717]

Nice background

[@burlingtonbill4687]

Such a great Prine moment! Love this and you do it so well unless I'm Crazy as a Loon. Burlington Bill busking across this country and on you tube.

Awesome as usual!

Beautiful!!

[@Tomc8030]

Nice job! Loving it from east Texas.

[@BeniBoyzGuitarSlamz]

What a vibe. Took me back to late nights in Los Angeles. Not sure where you filmed this but evocative nonetheless. Keep doing your thing. All good wishes from the cool side of the pond.

[@jeffm5808]

[@robynfedalen1777]

Great cover. Now, wait five minutes and there will be a thunderstorm over those hills and you can cut "Mexican Home".
