John Prine on Austin City Limits "Lake Marie"

[@AaronFarrington7]

I like the world better with John Prine in it

[@robertkett3754]

His body may be gone but his spirit and his legendary catalog full of gems from start to finish remain.

[@dochort21]

Heaven sounds a bit more glorious tonight. RIP John Prine.

Jason Wilber lost apart of himself when John passed, his guitar playing perfectly complimented John's songs. I saw just the two of them on a number of occasions, he was a show in himself. Great player. Here's another compliment from Jason: “I was 26 when I started playing guitar with John Prine, and I just turned 50 this year. So it’s been my entire adult life,” Wilber says. “At this point, John and his wife Fiona, their boys, the band and crew, they’re all like family to me. I love them all, and I love working with them. When I look at what happens between John and an audience, I can’t deconstruct it for you and explain exactly why it’s so brilliant. But I can tell you that something amazing is happening. There’s something about his music that touches people deeply. It’s a special thing, and it’s been a pleasure and a joy to get to be a part of it for so long.”

Great comment

[@jnagarya519]

Jason is an exquisitely tasteful player.

[@tjinnes]

That's great. (I have been wondering what Jason is doing now.)

[@billwalker9319]

"tryin to save our marriage and perhaps catch a few fish, what ever came first..." that brings a John Prine smile. He is our Mark Twain

[@jayzhou104]

That line goes hard 🔥 😂

[@samb6574]

​@@jayzhou104 goes damn hard

[@donwyates]

This song always gets to me. Come to think of it, all of John's songs always get to me. I was hoping he'd live forever.

[@frankduross2]

In our hearts, he always will.

[@jimbanda]

Me too. ❤

[@shanefx1]

We are all poorer for the loss of this beautiful man, but richer for having been blessed by his humanity.

[@mimimcguire1260]

Phenomenal great song ❤❤

[@ardelcourvelle8432]

I so LOVE this song......The smaller lake hidden from the highway turns out to be peaceful waters. RIP John

[@wpabell9225]

Thank you for making the world a little better. You will be missed John.

[@lbaker4222]

My favorite song of John Prine's! love the ending when they really get into it!

[@hkibak]

Masterpiece by the master. So sorry to see you go. Thanks for all the deep moments and the funny ones. So glad you were loved to the end.

[@celtbell]

Respect to John.. love from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@mrtv777]

Good god o mighty this song got me hooked. John you are the best

[@williamba3755]

John Prine will live with us as long as we share his music! I lived on Lake Marie next to Lake Elizabeth, Twin Lakes , Wisconsin.

[@anenthusiasticreader]

This song is like an epic novel. I love it so much.

[@lonepoorboymusic4365]

That ol' boy rocked it until the end! God bless and Godspeed, Mr. Prine.

[@michaelbrockman5742]

Dylan was right (as usual). John Prine, the Mark Twain of modern songwriters.

[@moyaas1]

God bless you John on your next journey. The world has lost such a treasure. We love you.

[@dublinbluetune]

I can't figure out why this song always brings tears to my eyes.

[@steviepan1]

Thanks for touching our hearts john. We will miss u!

[@laydros]

I'm a music person, and somehow made it well into my 20s without hearing John Prine. About 10 years ago I went to a show mostly to see the opener, Amos Lee. However it only took that one show for me to become a big John Prine fan, and this is the song that put me over. Get well John, we love you!

[@deanmary1969]

What a Beautiful Human Being ! Goodness Grace and Peace to the Prine family and to all people of the world he touched ! Angels are Singing..ol couple way down in TX

[@TenCentBluesClues]

I'm so glad to have gotten to see him twice before he left us. He was a true gentleman and just loved to make people happy with his music. I'm not sure there will be anyone like him again. Rest in peace John, and thanks for your music.

[@davidarmitage9041]

He and Steve are smoking a cigarette 9 miles long tonight. Rest In Peace friend. I remember when we met at The Earl of Old Town. God I’ll miss you.

[@johnbennettiv]

Flat out Masterpiece.

[@jonathankieranwriter]

He is NOT lost to us. His music lives and lives and lives and lives and lives ... My heart was broken like the hearts of so many fellow Prine admirers, but let us not think for a millisecond that he is “gone.” He is right here, baby.

[@PeteD1884]

This is the way I think about the death of person: It is not a loss. It is just an end of momentum. Some folk have a hell of a lot of momentum. Some folk, like me, will be be listening to Prine 'til we die. This man, this music will sail on forever.

[@mrmisterjefferson]

The sound of sweet living and traveling...the best soundtrack to many lives. Miss you already, John!

[@chriscombs6434]

Goodbye John. One of the best!

[@HeWhoFlewFromInwood]

This is Dylan's favorite Prine song. I saw John perform in CA opening for Bonnie Raitt and more recently at the Ryman in Nashville and he was beyond the top like a gift from god who he's hanging out with now, bless those lucky heavenly folk.

[@MrBobbystyles]

Praying for you and your family brother ❤️🙏🏼

The world 🌎 gained an angel & we lost a great 🎶❣️

[@adrianordonez8800]

i always come back to this one when my heart's feeling heavy and i get to thinking of love lost and nothing heals quite like it

[@edwardescobar500]

...adios amigo. Thank you for John Prine.

[@shawnduffy3380]

We lost him one year ago today. We still hear ya though, John!

[@jimbanda]

When a Saint goes back to heaven, on peaceful waters ❤ Rest gently JP.

[@UplandPiper]

What a gem!!! Truly a beautiful piece of musical history

[@richestesi5198]

Telluride is trying to Heal from J. Prine tearing it up! That place will never be the same. Love and miss you Mr. Prine.

[@kenscar]

This man is a true American poet and this right here is exhibit A. Get well John we love you. We need you

[@nomadjeff1922]

I miss John so much.

[@burrieboettcher3299]

His guitar playing makes me smile...wish I could play like that

[@KeefsCattys]

[@justinkavanagh7102]

God, I could listen to this performance of that song forever. What a song. What a band. What a beautifully judged guitar break. And what a unique talent John Prine had. Forget the decal. He has his ticket to heaven.

[@joannehack7588]
