you know what urban dictionary say about Kathleen's? It says The most beautiful girl in the world. She is perfect in everyway, and is liked by all. She is loving and caring and will always be there for you. She is gorgeous and sexy. If you happen to come across one, dont ever let her go. I know i wont. and it also says A name for girls which means "Pure". (: GO KATHLEENS<3
I miss you so much Kathy. Thanks to coming to me in my dreams. I love you so much. Wish I could have been there in your final moments. You were my Best Friend ever.
I know some people grow up disliking their name. Even though I was called Kathi, Katie, Kate, Kitty and Kandy, I go by Kathleen and I love my name. My name was pulled out of a hat when my parents couldn't decide. True story!
i'm called Kathleen and i LOVE this song SO much! as well as bright smile :D i love love love love Josh Ritter. he should be so like, well known!! he's amazing. i have all his CDs and i would Love to see him perform some day! thumbs up if you think Josh Ritter should be in the charts these days :) xxx
One of the best lines ever!!!! All the other girls are stars; you're the Northern Lights (well, maybe I didn't get it exactly).....never a better line....ever!!!!! I stole this line and substituted the word "men" when talking to my love. I couldn't think of anything to top it....thanks, Josh!!!!
This song is such a bittersweet comfort, that I cannot help revisiting it often. Kathleen died of a horrible cancer but was a soldier for all of us even at the end. Please listen to his song, "Girl in the War". Dedicated to all those that battle this horrible disease.
Josh, If you knew my friend Kathleen, you would know why you wrote this song. I miss her so much. She passed at 47 and we met each other when we were 3. Thanks for this song.
To My BEST FRIEND EVER. Kathy, I'll miss you forever. Celia and I will NEVER forget you. Your dying wish will never forget you. We will ALWAYS be a trio. We love you!
I'll take you back home Kathleen used to be my favorite song. But nothing sound so beautiful as the sound of one's name sung so sweetly and with such heat and passion.
i adore this song but i think the music video could be better. its like his best song and theres just a bunch of clips of him singing. uh yah..we get it ur a singer..i was hopeing to see a little acting or something cute
I first saw him on OTV, awesome writer and performer. A breath of fresh air in todays "music" market saturated with b.s., sexism, racism, and violence. Thank you Mr. Ritter.
I think you people complaining about his voice are maybe only doing so because it is a non-mono compatible recording collapsed to mono, thus making anything mono from the original recording (such as his voice) sound a bit dodgy.
Beautiful song, great video; I think everyone talking about how bad is voice is just referring to the audio quality of the montage, it just sounds streamed but otherwise great video!
My name is Kathleen and so far there is only one other song with my name, which is the one I was named for (I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen)...but this is just beautiful...
