There's 2 kinds of people in the world. John Prine fans, and the folks who haven't heard John's music... yet.

[@billsmith2041]

So true. I started to listen to him about 5 years ago..RIP

[@ytoldblackdogs]

@Evil Rev Good god man. Someone dies a tragic death, someone else makes a tribute. You come along, and within the span of four comments on a board, you're making snide remarks about political leanings. Congratulations.

[@christineortmanortmanchris528]

I’m proud to say that l first heard this song and about its author over 30 yrs ago at Winfield KS Flatping Championship of the(U.S.)? But the festival still goes on today and.so will John and his stories and songs. I’ve listened to tons of his songs by now and i will miss him deeply as l am sure that the world will to..

Roger Waters this is an incredible take and cover of John Prine’s music. So well done.

[@thomasmccormack1183]

That's the thing, John Prine was everybodys friend even the ones he hadn't met yet. Because they had met him on a dark lonely night. He lived right next door. It was never locked, always wide open come on in, have some meatloaf. Thank you!

Mr Waters Thank You for honoring Mr Prine. Thank you for so much powerful deep lyric and music you have created and for the ultimate mind blowing live concert spectacles ever created!! We love you!

[@Paolo8772]

I don't care how basic the music is here: the lyrics made me cry like a baby. May reality bless you Roger Waters. Thank you!

[@chrisdiaz4565]

You are not alone in your tears.

Paolo in its basic simplicity it is a grand symphony

[@Wiley_Coyote]

Waters did great delivering those lyrics. But the newly late John Prine wrote them. Coronavirus took a giant.

Paolo takes a real man to admit that brother ✊🏼. I feel ya

Fantastic! To uplift John Prine's memory in song just as his words uplifted all of us for so many years... Bless you Roger and all who knew and loved such a wonderful soul!

[@barques95]

When Roger Waters covers your song, you know you're one of the greats.

[@sylvainswift3234]

And what a cover... Both Roger and John can be proud.

[@AA-sn9lz]

John Prine was a way way way bigger genius than Waters.

[@sylvainswift3234]

@@AA-sn9lz , you should add "in my view". And as far as I am concerned, I do not place them on a scale. Both bring me a lot and I don't care if one should - or shouldn't be - a bigger genius than the other.

[@barques95]

@@AA-sn9lz They do different things. No need to compare. Like saying Tom Brady is better than Wayne Gretzky.

[@therobertybobshow45]

Amazing how simple melodies and chords can carry such artistic beauty. Nobody goes to the heart of the matter like John Prine. Thanks Roger. Love to you and yours.

[@justineharper3346]

I'm so grateful that I got to see both Roger and John live. They've both been such a huge part of my life. I had no idea that Roger was a fan of John though. In my experience, John is hugely underrated. Most people that I've mentioned him to have never heard of him, which is a shame. I think he was one of the greatest songwriters of our time. Roger is another one

[@jjmateosd]

Sorry for this lost Roger😔, thanks for your tribute, you sounded a bit like him , your voice every day is most personal, love it!

[@lewiespearman]

Roger, your version hit me in the gut this morning. Can't hold back the tears

[@fern]

Just a beautiful song. Once my sons (21 years old and 16 years old) found out about Toronto getting locked down due to the Covid lockdown, first thing they asked was "Dad check to see if Roger Waters is still going to be on in the summer". Can't wait to see you in better circumstances Roger, at Scotiabank Stadium in Toronto rocking the house!

[@kiltedbill7594]

A GREAT TRIBUTE TO OUR FRIEND JOHN. THANKS ROGER...

[@jimjamsetc6763]

Decades ago we used to play this song around the campfires while camping. Beautifully done Roger and R.I.P. John :( .

[@patrickfranciscampbell8593]

Who needs the outdoors when you can listen to this amazing cover! RIP John Prine.

"There's a hole in Daddy Arm, where all the money goes....." one of the best lines ever written. RIP John Prine

DIVINE Roger! RIP dear John! 🙏🌈🤗💖 From what I've learned about Heaven through Matthew Ward in his dearest Mom's book of Matthew's Messages 👉 "Matthew, Tell Me About Heaven" ... you won't have time to rest John, you'll SOON be playing on stage with ALL THE LATE GREATS!!! 👌 WONDERFUL! 😍👼🎵

A fine tribute Roger you look clearly shaken, you and JP were my childhood musical heroes, always thought of John as Bob Dylan with a good voice, JP different in always not just his humour that was sharp and witty, he was a true gentleman and sadly missed, thanks for this tribute Roger....your music is an inspiration your honesty is a credit to you fine sir

[@charliebucket8053]

Damn Roger 🥺 Every time I feel lost, and alone there's you, and John Prine. And now you've just appeared with this beautiful blending of the 2. Thankyou for being an amazing human, and for honouring another amazing human. Honestly, thankyou. RIP mr Prine. Rock on Mr Waters. FREE JULIAN ASSANGE

You have done this great Man proud let him rest in peace. In another time and place I know I will sit and listen to the two of you singing it together I worked CBS in the Bay are when “Wish you were hear” @ “Animals” were released. Just to let you know I Sold 55,000 copies of “Wish you were here” in SF. Not a Rock City in those days. God Bless you for everything you’ve given us and continuing to keep creating and performing. You are a Class Guy. Peace

One of the amazing things to see in all these tributes is that they are coming from EVERY genre of music! Country, Alt country, rock, pop, hip hop, classical...I could go on and on! In every genre there are multiple people paying tribute to him! That speaks to John's own openness and kindness to other regardless of how they express their art. And it of course speaks to John's talent...the masters in every genre could see it!
