You Are My Sunshine - Norman Blake - O Brother, Where art Thou? Soundtrack

[OperationSigma]

-sigh- this brings back memories... my mother sang this to me every day from me being 1-12. My parents went through a divorce however and while I stayed with my mom at first, I eventually moved to my dads... and when I hear this song, I can`t help but leave the room or i`ll cry, because... I can`t help but feel like.... like I took her sunshine away...

Mom... I love you.... I call her everyday and say that but... maybe it isn`t enough...

This song was written in the early 1930s and the original writer never got any credit until a music professor from Japan who specialized in American folk music tracked down his children, who had saved the paper sack he wrote down the words on.

[JusticeNature]

@verdew8181 thats an amazing story. I hope his family received royalties.

Words cannot describe how much I love this song - especially this version. The best ever.

[winnd54]

I went in and sang this to my wife as she lay dying. I only hope that she was able to hear me. My little four year old grand daughter came and sang with me.

[Jlancaster64]

@winnd54 Sir, I can't bring myself to like that comment, but I would love to let you know that is a very meaningful statement.

[pimpnhard101]

@winnd54 thats sad man.. when i was a kid my mom would sing this song to me..

one day i'll lose her and on that day.. i'll sing this song..

[MegaBeerwolf]

@winnd54 so sorry to hear that, Winn.

[sabistar1]

[pheenix42]

@winnd54 Oh, I'm quite sure she heard you, friend.  =)

[Amberr0307]

@winnd54 That is beautiful. Im a nurse and Ive heard many medical personnel say that at that time the persons auditory sensations are still in tact...Just know she heard you both. God Bless You.

[madmamma1]
