Tenille Townes - Somebody's Daughter

[@jakecarroll3324]

I have not seen my daughter in nearly a year. I know she is running from the law, I have no idea where she is. Addiction is the worst kind of demon. It is a battle she cannot seem to win. This song.....it stopped me in my tracks. I know people thinks she just another junkie, but I remember girl scouts, the church youth choir, her best friend and her making singing videos and her first crush. This song touches me like no other song ever has. Thank you for recording it.

[@agentcalm]

I hope you find her Jake and the story will have a happy ending. She is still your little girl.

[@kaciehallock8998]

Addiction is a sad and scary thing. I pray you've found your daughter and she's on her long journey to sobriety. My brother has been clean for almost a year...it's been the longest, hardest year of his life but he's pushing through!

[@bradthorne22]

Im a recovering addict myself and my family had given up on me. But by God's grace I'm sober one day at a time. Never give up hope. I'll pray for her bc I understand her pain

[@ritaricks5183]

I'm seventeen years sober. Everyone had gave up on me. Lost everything,but by the grace an love of God I survived. I pray she is safe an defeats the demons of drugs an alcohol. There is a better life out there.

[@lacieford1030]

I am an addict...wasnt prepared for this kind of life when I let it in. It has dug me down, chocked and kicked me. It has taken more from me than I ever thought it would. I have tried to put it all down but it is stronger than me and it is smarter than me but it cant take being someones daughter from me. I have 2 little girls...ones 20 and ones 15. I posted rhis song to my facebook status and tagged both of them in it. I hope they realize I am not only their mother but I too just like them both am somebodys daughter.

[@user-mx8fm6us4g]

This song really hit me when I first heard it... I was just driving home after a traumatic shift in the hospital, where we had a young woman with a drug use problem who had just lost a baby. I felt some members of the team were very judgemental of this patient for her drug use. When I heard this song, I couldn't stop thinking of this woman and what things must have been like for her to end up in the situation she was in.

[@caityq13]

[@TheRaindancer10]

I'm also a nurse. I have found at times thinking about patients who have expired. Thier lives maybe 30 minutes prior to geriatrics and what whole lives contained. I think this builds our empathy and compassion for patients. Everyone is more than a diagnosis or room number.

[@kawrss31]

OH CMON! This is what Soyboi's and woman day dream about. Crying to some song that hits them hard over an event they can relate to. Shes a drug addict who chooses drugs over her baby and you put to value on her. She made her choice and she killed a baby over her drug addiction yet you feel bad for her. I mean grow up.

[@nooneanybodyknows1321]

@@kawrss31 What a douche bag you are to just assume and comment she KILLED a baby. The comment doesn't say the reason the baby died, only that members of her team were judgemental for the patient's drug use and the baby's death. Maybe she was raped and she used drugs to cope. None of us know. Try some compassion and remember Karma is a bitch.

[@trwent]

It is weird that Tenille Townes and Tenille Arts are both brunette Canadian country singers about the same age, with the same first name!! I saw T.A. this last weekend at the Goldensky festival in Sacramento, and I thought that she was awesome. T.T. looks and sounds just as good on this video; I can’t wait to see her live too!!

[@MitchMb14]

Mainstream country shouldn't make a grown man cry. No it definitely should. Fewer beer in my truck songs and more stuff like this, please.

[@Ceceoh]

Heard this on WCOL Columbus and was very surprised. Seems like country stations only play strings of silly novelty songs anymore. This song actually caught my attention.

[@Dark_Cafe-le3cq]

I totally agree!!

[@brandonaltman8353]

I too enjoyed this song but dont agree with what you said. Artists make songs for different people etc, I wouldnt be listening to this song driving down a dirt road on the way out to a bonfire, for that I'd listen to some beer drinking with pickups driving down backroads music

[@Gutigwolfe]

I normally despise country, cus all the songs seem to be about being an alcoholic, but this woman is one of the few country singers that dont make me want to kill myself. When you are forced to listen to country every day, it is nice to have some refreshing music come on the radio on ocassion

Heard this song September 2020 I cried and though as a father I am exceededly grieved because my children When they were young I was ultra protective of them not over bearing gently corrected and sow encouragement because I grew up in NYC without a father since 5 years of age alot of unnecessary drama I and many others didn't need I prayed often thanking God for their present and future I loved them passionately as a faithful father but in the late nineties I was about to graduate that very semester in a community college being Mr Mom cleaning the house cooking laundry ect while my faithful wife went to work then in the beginning of that year I was body building eating right running on the treadmill stretching not doing drugs would drink a six pack of beer maybe on Friday watching the Chicago Cubs which my wife got into baseball watching it on TV and also travel with the family to Wrigley field in Chicago the second time there we went by charrier bus because I never gone to Chicago before the first time driving it is amazing we found it had get off the highway many times asking for directions anyway the beginning of that year I came down with a 105 five fever near death next three months I was so delusional sleeping on the youngest mattress by the front door my children were young and my wife didn't know what was going on I understand when the mind goes haywire that year and the next I don't wish it even upon my enemy I told my wife take the kids and her leave the state not knowing where she would go but I scared her and found out when my children came back in my Life after 15 years she was miserable listening to my mother in law whom I loved dearly but those years of separation no communication I would have recurring dreams of my wife and children incomplete dreams but though my wife and children were at rest and peace before that situation with that extreme fever I prayed over and beyond speaking what God's word says great shall be the shalom of my children and many others thanking Him for their amazing destiny because God told Joshua let these words not depart from thy mouth basically saying speak His word because it says in Psalm 138 His word is magnified above His name He means and fulfill what He says I am a believing born again Christian He saw the whole picture and everyone in it my children were living dangerously but His faithful Hand and unsearchable mind kept them alive and when they started coming back in my life they doing better than I did as a young man good and responsible with money etc. Good people and prospering being elevated It says in Psalm 112 Blessed is the man who fears the Lord and greatly delighted in His commands next verse his descendants will be mighty upon the earth invest in God's way for your children and after them because He sees the now future and before we all was created in the womb.

[@rockpaperscissors82]

Yes, that's right Matt. Even though country music has always (like every genre) been dominated by males, it has never been worse than in the past 10 years. The industry is failing to cultivate the talent that can give us the next Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, Dolly Parton, Crystal Gayle, Pam Tillis, Martina McBride, etc. Instead, we are given an onslaught of generic males, hardly distinguishable one from the other: Walker Hayes, Mitchell Tenpenny, Jordan Davis, Brett Young, Russell Dickerson, Morgan Evans, and on and on. Most people can't even remember who is who. And most of these dudes will be soon irrelevant and forgotten -- remember Canaan Smith?

[@rockpaperscissors82]

She is not on every country station. Not even close. This song has not even charted in the top 60 yet on Billboard Country Airplay, and a song is not even in regular rotation until it hits the top 30. So, how has she made it big? Your definition of big must be rather small. She is getting some attention, but she is very, very far from making it big, as she should for such a talent.

[@bradferkovich3571]

Just a quick note. I love this song. Period. I never had kids but this hits me like a freight train. Had had served from '99-'02 and there was a song that came on on one of the bus rides at Ft. Benning to one of the mounts and after being yelled at but instructors for three weeks it was nice that the driver had "Roll With The Changes by REO Speedwagon playing over the radio. It was that moment that a bus of hardened troops started to sing. Most of us broke down. 23 years latter, I'm now 51 and working Walmart overnights and we had a guy who came out of the military and said his song that every Joe broke down was this song. Nothing quite like hearing a bus full of soldiers crying over a song about someones daughter I agreed.

[@krystal9729]

This song hits me so hard. My mother was an addict for most of my 21 years of life. No one cares about them. They go missing, get raped, get murdered and no one cares. People think they’re just trash but they don’t understand. That’s someone who means the world to someone else. Someone they wish they could have caught. Could have been enough and been there before they ever started. She was using way before I was born. A few years ago she went away for several years and has been clean since but I KNOW that pain. Wondering where they are, if they’re going to come home, if they’re safe because when they don’t and aren’t no one cares. You don’t know someone’s story and why they chose that path. No one chooses to be an addict, they just want to escape and it ends up holding them captive and promises them false happiness. The only spoiler is it only takes ALL of your happiness away. Those little things that got you through the rough times? Gone. Those children you love? Eh. Your morals? What are those. Drug addicts aren’t bad people and I truly believe that because my mama isn’t. They just got lost along the way trying to escape the torments of life and when we didn’t catch them the drugs did and whispered all these false promises in their ears. YOU DON’T know someone’s story. YOU DON’T know how that person got there or just how important they are to someone. Everyone is missed. Every life is valuable and everyone deserves to be saved.

This is 1 of my favorite country songs I ever heard!!! I can’t ever get it out of my head!!!

[@faithburns1579]

I drive home the same way Two left turns off the interstate And she's always standing At the stoplight on 18th Street She could be a Sarah She could be an Emily An Olivia, maybe Cassidy With the shaky hands On the cardboard sign And she's lookin' at me Bet she was somebody's best friend laughing Back when she was somebody's sister Countin' change at the lemonade stand Probably somebody's high school first kiss Dancin' in a gym where the kids all talk about someday plans Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple dollars And I'll wonder if she got lost or they forgot her She's somebody's daughter Somebody's daughter Somebody's daughter Did she give up wondering where the cars all go? And can she even tell that I don't know what to say? So I just nod my head and wave Well, no one's gonna ask what she wants to be Or why we're both stuck here at the mercy of geography And whether it shines or rains Bet she was somebody's best friend laughing Back when she was somebody's sister Countin' change at the lemonade stand Probably somebody's high school first kiss Dancin' in a gym where the kids all talk about someday plans Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple dollars Oh, and I'll wonder how she felt when no one caught her She's somebody's daughter Somebody's daughter Somebody's daughter Somebody's daughter Oh, I don't know the reasons why I'm the one who's driving by And she's the one on the corner of 18th Street Bet she was somebody's best friend Back when she was somebody's sister Bet she was somebody's first kiss Oh, Dancing in a gym where the kids all talk about someday, someday Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple dollars Oh, and I'll wonder if she got lost or they forgot her She's somebody's daughter She's somebody's daughter

Thx for this

[@sandracarstairs7232]

Yes Thanks 💖

[@dannytee2701]

If my workplace radio is ever on it's Kix FM reaching us here in Darwin. I caught the tail end of this song and was immediately drawn to it, the lyrics and her voice like wow, who is this! Quick jump onto utube and discover Tenille Townes rockin it and then i heard White Horse too in the background last few weeks, now i know who is responsible!! Onya Tenille, you're doing it for me then i passed on the rec. to my daughter and now she's lovin' you too! Thank you, for you.

[@sjcross8]

Just heard this song on the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade. I’m usually not into mainstream country but this song really hit me. Great song!

[@callmelittled]

This song makes me bawl every single time I hear it. I have a young son and haven't lost anyone to addiction, but my mama heart can't help but break thinking of how sad this is.

[@ChelleSmithArtNMusicChick]

Keep this kind of country music going, please.

[@jamesanderson8078]

Tennielle,I heard that song this morning on the radio. My Mom just came to Buffalo from South Carolina . She was here for three weeks. My stepfather was here for eight days only. I wasn't too thrilled about that. The good news is that my mom said that she might come back again in August if I don't go to North Carolina.

[@t-yoonit]

You have a very unique voice. I hope I get to hear it more often on the radio! Keep it up miss! Love it!

[@carriebrown7133]

as some of your previous posts touch on, no doubt, this line makes the song.... "I wonder how she fell and no one caught her" - Great video Tenille

[@db63131]

A better song escapes me. Can’t think of one. This is it! Thank you!

[@jenniferdijames1671]

Well Tennielle, Good news. My mom just came to Buffalo for two weeks. And she left yesterday. 😪

[@littlehicktown7633]

🎼This song touches my 💗 deeply. My Ma disappeared. Later she was found murdered in most unbearable way. She'd been homeless at the time. She was everything in this song an do much more. In this world of immediate gratification, people are just objects to be use at will. We need to be reminded of just how precious life is. Too many forget just how human we all are. And how fast your life can turn upside down an you could just as easily be the one standing on the corner. A tough all to real reality for too many. I too have spent time homeless. So i cannot just look past someone on the streets living without so much of which most take for granted. 💗Beautiful done ladies! 💗🎼

[@helenpetersen7174]

There are way too many corners of 18th street and not enough coping, overcoming addiction & recovery, forgiveness, understanding, compromise, staying true to the vows, and willingness to fight for someone. I am sure I missed a human condition or a few, but that's where we are today. Powerful song...made me cry and I don't even have a daughter. But I know & know of those whose lives & families that have been destroyed by their addiction to alcohol/drugs/gambling/you name it. The insidious part is THEY have to change it up and all those who love them are powerless to change that. It's like living a train wreck you can't stop but know it's coming.

[@anthonylaw691]

The best album I’ve heard in such a long time ❤️👌

[@LittleMack07]

I LOVE this song.

[@layceelay5382]

It's so crazy.. I used to be homeless and flying signs on offramps all over the west coast just a few years back. And my name is Cassidy!! I feel called out.

[@teresateresa3487]

Your called out girl Let you and everyone you know that your special,and allowed to ;÷ who you want to be!!!...

[@beautifuldisaster56]

This song reminds me of my best friend Keisha smith she fought through cancer and now she's in heaven looking down ! I miss her so much every day!

[@sarahn.8017]

We need more meaningful songs like this one ❤

[@TenilleTownes]

Thank you! That means a lot!

[@proverbialride]

One of the best songs on modern country radio these days. She’s got a great voice!

Had a cousin who disappeared for a year & 1/2 because of addiction. Got rescued by her Aunt. This song hits a very soft spot in me. Hope they release a karaoke version. Would love to belt this out.

[@MsCupcake0920]

First time I heard it, I cried. It made me think of my friend who passed away from a drug overdose. This song is absolutely amazing. 💙 Don't judge people, you never know what they're going through.

[@MonkeylessJohn]

Wow!! Such wisdom in this beautiful song.

[@jjfbond]

Her voice reminds me of Stevie Nicks, love her voice it shouldn't be limited to country, she can do sooo much more.

[@JABarns]

I love everything about this song! Just because they’ve fallen on hard times doesn’t make them worth lesser than you.

[@WHYtheband]

This is a powerful song and video. Dignity is a free gift we can afford. Thank you for this beautiful song. Respect from a little rock band in Winnipeg.
