My heart aches in a way it has not for many years. The loss of John Prine is the loss of years of love and holding onto a memory. Memories of someone who knew the words to every song, memories of a war fought for all the wrong reasons, memories of a time when we were young and the music brought us together. John Prine is the reason that I write songs, he is my true songwriting hero, without him, Bob Dylan, Kris Kristofferson, and Hank Williams to emulate and embrace my words may not exist. John is a legend and has inspired so many to say whatever it is that they have to say. I send love and condolences to the Prine family for your loss. We who listened and loved share your grief.
