When she says “Kentucky” with that twang my heart skips a beat

[@Alexander-rq9he]

Right?!! ❤

[@virginiajackson9745]

Absolutely beautiful. RIP Naomi Judd.

[@jeffp6147]

As a kid my mom and older sister would blast this throughout our house. Since then I’ve lost my sister to suicide and the news of Naomi passing somehow has reopened that wound. I wish I could go back to those simpler days…

[@j.johnson5217]

I think we all wish tht, where did they go. Always loved their music...

[@kathysavala2593]

How terribly sad. I lost a family member to suicide who suffered from clinical depression. I always wished he could have seen himself as others saw him. May your sister rest in peace.

[@MustardSeedish]

I'm so sorry for your profound loss.

[@kimdespain5060]

I lost a brother to mental illness I dont

[@kimdespain5060]

I lost a brother that way too and it Does bring memories back I'm still mad I just do not understand how someone could do that and leave everyone here trying to make some kind of since out of it

[@outlawgordee]

The countriest song ever. Solid Gold.

[@frankferret1038]

Love this song reminds me of a younger me driving an 18 wheeler for a living and hearing this song on the radio absolute magic.

[@feltongailey8987]

Beautiful simplicity. This does not age.

[@mjb1403]

That is so true. : )

[@Jon_2218]

This particular performance stayed so true to the original recording, thanx for the memories. RIP Naomi Judd April 2022.

Two beautiful, talented, empathic women. A mother and her daughter. The joy and support their music brought the world. 'RIP Naomi, you are with angels now.

[@douglasb.1238]

Amen to that friend.

[@MrLittlebuddy]

My daughter who was severely handicapped would yell and scream with this song. It was her favorite and made her happy. Sadly she passed away a year ago on 05/02. Watching this brings me tears of joy.

[@lakotareddeer397]

WHY NOT ME!!!!!

[@Max-gp4wp]

Blessings to you

[@markrunyon5524]

So sorry for your loss.

[@Erix7810]

Thank you for sharing.

[@aidenfermanagh6207]

So sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter. I am glad that she found happiness in singing along with the Judds.

[@joq702]

I love Wynonna’s look at this time with much less makeup. What a naturally beautiful woman, and proud of her and Naomi. Wynonna can belt it and stays in control and on pitch.

[@kimdespain5060]

I do too

[@nickgolik3305]

Anyone that doesn’t love this song doesn’t have a soul

[@truthof7382]

Wynona, one of the greatest country voices ever.

[@banjominer9682]

the power in Wynonna's voice is amazing

[@greenbeagle13]

Almost effortlessly looking. Her voice is amazing. I loved their harmonizing together too.

[@donaldbrownlee7358]

My man on the acoustic guitar is the truth, he makes this song, and I don't give a damn what anyone say.

[@roxanne5766]

Yes.. like some great songs, you hear just a few bars and immediately know what song it is!

[@conniebahr9780]

Oh one of my favs., who am I kidding they were ALL my fav! So very sorry to hear of Naomi's passing.

[@kevinmiller6380]

RIP Naomi Judd. You definitely made your mark in country music.

[@UlloMark]

Long have i loved this song... but now i appreciate it more than ever; Rest In Peace, Naomi... Pretty Mama...!

[@edwardpate6128]

RIP Naomi! You left us far too soon, what a talented, determined and beautiful person.

[@constructioncrew8854]

Feels like her voice takes me straight to Heaven

[@thowen1988]

I remember seeing 'The Judds' with the group Alabama in November 1985 at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa. RIP Naomi Judd

[@bjyokums]

My first favorite Judd song. God bless the Judds during this difficult time.

[@stevenbuckner8864]

those voices. magic.

[@johnnydodgecountry9508]

God , her mother was on fire...and she sounded amazing , back then.

[@staceychutskoff1232]

Yess! Mama👍

[@roytallericoGunner]

I always marveled on how beautiful Naomi was. My grand daughter carries that name. She won't be forgotten

[@stevestevenson9409]

Killer debut album. Every song.

[@carolej.6067]

R I P. NAOMI. 🇨🇦❤️🎼🎶

[@kellibrewer3770]

This is my absolute favorite song by them. I think both of them are positively beautiful.

[@sparky09100]

i would blast this song driving my semi and being free out in the big ole country. love you Naomi RIP sweetie, I will continue to blast this song driving

[@sugargold4126]

This reminds me of my college days when things were easier and I had big dreams. Too bad Naomi suffered. She had fame and fortune, beautiful family and to the average person she had everything. Mental health needs to be recognized as a disease just like cancer. RIP, beautiful lady.

[@donmunro144]

mental health is a disease like you said. To us she seemed to have it all. But most people don't see the pressure if being a celebrity. She said that people saw her as the person she was on stage not as she really was. Sometimes the worst prison is in ones own mind.

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

Sorry but that would mean good mental health like most of us have most of the time is bad. If you mean mental health problems should be taken as seriously as physical health problems then I couldn't agree more.

[@donmunro144]

@@neiloflongbeck5705 What I meant is that people don't know what another is feeling inside. Everything looks good on the surface, but who knows what is going on inside. I just lost my sister in law to suicide. And nobody had a clue anything was wrong. Mental health is something that most take for granted but needs to be taken seriously.

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

@@donmunro144 so sory to hear of your loss, but please don't lump all mental health as a disease. Poor mental health is the issue we all have to deal with (ours, our family's and our friends). We need to get good mental health as the norm we all strive for and to have easy access to people who can help us to get to it.

[@sallengage6267]

This song is so great, Wynonna voice is beautiful.

[@swedejohanson7739]

She’s honestly one of the best of all time in my opinion. Def a one of kind voice. She’s right up there w Karen Carpenter.

[@timothylove9705]

And to think - she was still a teenager here! Phenomenal!!! Naomi recognized her daughters talent. And she sang harmony with her to give her the confidence to perform.

[@shirleyCG585]

Rest in peace, Ms. Naomi Judd. You and your daughter made beautiful music. So sad to see you leave but I know you are in heaven with Jesus dancing in that peaceful sky.

[@johncraftenworth7847]

interestingly, Wynonna Judd was actually the mother and Naomi was the daughter. Most people get it confused, and it is one of the "mandela effect" quirks

[@Erix7810]

She commit suicide. I wouldn’t assume she’s in heaven. I don’t know myself, but I wouldn’t make the leap of judgement.

[@jimthomas777]

@@Erix7810 , that's first degree murder isn't it ? When you plan a murder , Even if it's your own ? Thou shalt not kill ! Doesn't that include yourself ?

[@cassconner6023]

My Brother went to High School with Naomi, he said she was so beautiful that he could never muster the courage to talk to her....and he was one of guys all the girls chased after.

[@evensout]

love this song, one of my absolute favorites... besides Wynonna's great voice and Naomi's beautiful harmonizing, there is that great guitar work... just a great song...

[@eflint1]

An eerily haunting song, in a good way.

[@GolfHack44]

If an alien asked me to give them one example of country music so they can try and learn what it is, I'd give them this brilliant sample.

[@zacharydoser8536]

Hells to the ya.

[@markamarkawaaawaa]

Lol! That's awesome!

[@brianneeley6366]

A true timeless classic

[@createallow3126]

Wow, great song! I think many will be discovering and rediscovering their music in the coming days. I've always seen Wynona as one of great powerhouse singers of any genre since a friend introduced me to them in the early nineties. She has that Elvis-like snarl, but so much depth and substance, too.

[@JayWest14]

I absolutely loved these two ladies when I was a kid. Wynonna always gave me Elvis vibes. Their stage presence was amazing. The lip thing, I was so in love and I was just a kid.

[@stevenpollard5171]

I don’t have the ability to go to concerts, but I am still sad that I never got to see them.

[@ethanfairweather8736]

Naomi, we miss you so very much. Wherever you are; I hope it is a better place. Goodbye Naomi Judd. Please rest in peace.

[@christinecousins6620]

The Judds were the best ever. Brilliant Harmonys and Melodies. I will always play their music. They made my Heart and Soul dance. Naomi will never be forgotten. Wynonna is the best. Thank you for your music.🧡

[@theargus2340]

RIP Naomi. Such a great talent.

Love it. Rip Naomi greatest country songs ❤️

[@emsparamedic5183]

I have been following the Judds since 1984, been to many concerts and have most of their albums and CDs and can't figure out how I ever missed this song. I'm sure glad it came up on my feed on YT! Great song!!

[@juliejohnson7390]

The memories from my mom playing the judds when i was a kid.. 😢😢😢 I love the judds.. So sad

[@jamesklapetzky8633]

Such a beautiful lady. RIP

[@toniajenkins921]

It is so hard to imagine how Naomi Judd could have taken her own life.It goes to show us all no-one knows the hell someone is going through.Fame or money no matter. Everyone has pain that no one else can see.

[@luciaterrizzi1881]

Actually I read that anyone on Psychiatric Drugs as she was on, its likely it happens...it happened to actor Robin Williams who hung himself. Its not the person its the Psychiatric Drugs to blame. Plenty of people are depressed but dont commit suicide, but once they get caught onto those heavyduty drugs lookout! Dell Shannon the singer was also on Prosac as I was for depression but died because of the drug. I trashed mine when I saw what it was doing to me real fast!!!

[@geerterri]

@@luciaterrizzi1881 Actually, you are quite wrong and uneducated about this. Some people that are bi-polar, or have been diagnosed with severe depression, need these meds badly. After you READ about what the cause of Del Shannon's death was, did you get back to your Doctor and request a different med. In fact, did the med that you were on cause any of the negative symptoms. If you didn't, you are, IMO, a fool. About Prozac, many, many people cannot take the med. But then, it was intended ONLY when other meds don't help. If you go into a Doctor's office and the first thing that he wants to do is prescribe Prozac, leave the office and find another Doctor. Go to a psychologist, not a Family Doctor or Internal Medicine. They are not trained in anti-psych meds. Myself, I would never take Prozac. For three extremely good reasons. 1) My meds are working very well. 2) My Mom, while taking Prozac, had major hallucinations. 3) My older son, while taking Prozac, also had major hallucinations. That means that genetics precludes the use of Prozac.

[@julesdwill]

I read Wynonna’s story about growing up, what an incredible story they had, should make a movie about it.

We all have a big empty hole inside our hearts that only Jesus can fill, do NOT leave this world without Him.

[@toniajenkins921]

He has wrapped his loving arms around her.

[@johnkustra7978]

Yes God is love but also consider Jesus' mother - Mother Mary loves us as much and if you listen to the lyrics of Beyonce's song Ave Maria you will catch my drift- My answer to the heartache of this song is Why not me to love your cares away , or Why not me when your growing old Sometimes the consolation you will not get here but spiritually. Beyonce's song says it way better than me. Yes I am Catholic but what we do share with other Christians is the love of the Nativity scene so think of what I said next time at Christmas which is coming up fast

Such a tragedy. I myself struggle with mental illness and I can relate to the anguish you feel it can be so mentally and physically painful you search for any relief you can find. Naomi’s book river of time has been such a comfort to me . When I first read it , it made me feel validated in what I was feeling and told me you are not alone wish I had the chance to tell her thank you. RIP Naomi gone but will never be forgotten
