@DaveWollenberg Chuck played w/ Lari White at the Fla Folk Fest in 2002. He did this for us and it hit me like a ton o' bricks. Was so pleased a couple of yrs later when I heard the Judds cover it. Their take is so good, Wynonna gives it a real clean, simple and sensitive treatment; don't think this fine song will ever be done any better....
this song is absolutley fabulous. my childhood in south texas. simple life. american life. i love this country and all the beautiful people who live here. we are all really the same. we were all pretty much raised like this
I can't help but get misty eyed as I listen to this song. It takes me back to my childhood home in rural southeast MO. Isn't it funny how the older you get, the more you miss the little things you took for granted when you were younger?
Absolutely beautifully done. Thank you so much for posting. The Judds... One of the greatest harmonies ever. I can't listen to this song without crying. Beautiful Just beautiful
@plowgirl70 What a wonderful reply. I think many of us can carry the memories even longer, but oh what a wonderful 4 1/2 minutes of introduction to past memories that can still be recalled.
I miss you nanna! God I miss you. When the crickets come back every summer you live again. I live with you everyday. I miss you! You weren't perfect, no of us are. I hope we meet again soon. I LOVE YOU.
Beautiful song, truly one that touches the heart. Reminds me of my grandparents and all the wonderful times of my childhood, brings smiles and tears, but many more smiles!!
Thank you for sharing this video, it's a perfect fit to this amazing song. ♥
i love this song first time i heard it in english class we were doing vivid words that paint a story and this song does it so well brings back wonderful memories of my great grandparents and she has such a lovely voice im not that much of a country music lover but her and alan jackson has my vote
I am so glad to see so many people feel the same way I do about this song. First time I heard it I was at work and I cried listening closely because it touched me so deeply. I'm amazed to see so many of us have such a longing for our childhood days past and for the old times.. I can't wait to see these ladies perform in December!!
@ginarenee2000 i am going to see them in December too!! do you live somewhere in the Los Angeles area? i'm going on 12/15....i'm so excited cause it's THE JUDDS and i've never seen them live before so my first Judds concert will be one of their last as a duo :*o( i totally forgot about this song.....i wonder if they'll sing it at the show.....
Love this video, I am happy they are getting together again (per Oprah show 09-14-10) and have worked through their differences. It's sad to think some thought they shouldn't air their dirty laundry in public, I admire them for doing it. Shows they are just a normal family (famous but normal) with the same problems as many others. Love hearing their voices together again! Thanks for putting this up for all to see!
@agw505 THIS IS A SONG THAT MY WIFE IS USEING TO MAKE A PICTUR SLIDE FOR HER MOM AND SISTER... MAYBE SOME OTHERS WOULD DO THIS FOR THERE MOM OR GRAMA.. I KNOW MOM WOULD HAVE LOVED TO SEE THIS,I MISS YOU MOM SO MUCH,I PRAY YOU SEE ME AND YOU SEE THE GOOD MAN THAT I AM BECOMING THROUGH JESUS CHRIST .. YOUR SON REV.T.L
@agw505 i also saw that oprah show and it was the first time i heard them sing id heard of wynonna but not her mum,anyway i love them they gel so well there voices its simply beautiful,and the fact they were on oprah why not hey they worked it out not like my family, aw well
I had never heard this song either until my good friend (the gentleman sitting on the bench in the video) sent it to me...I fell in love with it! I'm so glad you liked it...sorry you cried though...Connie :)
I love this song too...tried to find the Allen Shamblin one on YouTube so I could give it a listen...didn't have any luck though! Thanks for the comment!
I've heard that it's possible to grow up - I've just never met anyone who's actually done it. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don't go our way, we whisper secrets with our best friends in the dark, we look for comfort where we can find it, and we hope - against all logic, against all experience. Like children, we never give up hope...
What does she mean "You can't go home again?" Is it because her grandparents have died? My grandmother used to be my best friend but then she could not accept a certain thing about me and now we have not spoken in more than 15 yrs.
@illbegawddamd I have no idea what the problem is, but hope you can get the problem(s) worked out. My brother died two years ago, I tried to work ours out, but on his deathbed he wouldn't say the two words I wanted to hear. So, I go on and try to live as I should. If you don't try to reconcile you will never know....God Bless!
If I could stop crying I'd be able to write more. I so miss childhood. why is childhood now days full of video games and such? will our kids grow up and have such memories so when they hear such songs it brings back good times and tears to their own eyes.
The first time I heard this song I had so many memories flood back to me too...still do. We have a hand in creating memories for our children and grandchildren...so if we do our job I believe they too will have beautiful memories when they hear songs like this...Connie :)
love this song..what made me a man, and a good one, is i watched my grandparents rock on the front porch in their rocking chairs..they hardly said a word but i could tell they were happy..that is true love.. and i got to see it first hand
I grew up much the same way...maybe not the rocking chairs but there were many times spent with grandparents...thank you for sharing a memory...Connie :)
Welcome back! I had never heard this song until a friend sent it to me...I fell in love with it...so when I made this video I put a picture of my friend in it...he is the guy on the bench...anyway...thanks for stopping back! Connie :)
@ceekay1952 lol I hadnt heard of it either until a friend told me he heard it on the radio....so I searched....yeh! absolute magic....absolute magic...mmm

This song reminds me of my childhood. One thing we never think of these days...how precious time is. You can't go rewind. Appreciate the times you DO get with the ones you love...there may be no other times to have with them.
Should've been promoted as a Judds single. They hit #33 in Billboard, 4-24-04.God bless ya, Naomi and Wy. Have a blessed week. Thanx for postin' it.
