[thebellabellas]

this is horrible

[islandkeeper]

She played in AuSable woods, dad let me, 16, go alone to see her- 4-hour bus, 30-minute hitchhike, climb in cabin thru woodshed door--never locked. Stayed alone 2 weeks miles from all humans,mom furious, guns there,ammo; I came from 4-day coma, overdose cuz no one loved me.Later found dad's grandpa grew up in MI. woods with no stores, partridge squirrel and pigeon pot pies; didn't tell kids what to do . I'll never forget Buffy's role in my coming to see that Dad loved & trusted me.

@islandkeeper Buffy (and her music) would be a great person to work through your issues with friend - she's a legend! - hope you're keeping strong :)

[islandkeeper]

She must be--she's so young still here in the 2009 video; I saw her in Canada and northern Michigan, in 1973. every song of hers was branded in me by age 15. She says so much in so few words. I wanna go home to the piney wood hills

[marystrand]

Anybody knows if this great lady is still around? I met her once here in Sweden when we were having a refeendum as to whether to build out the nuclear plants or not. Unfortunately the govt. didn´t follow the resulat of the people´s votes. Great democracy. Mary of Sweden

what a song! - always a smile for Buffy

[ScentedNectar]

Wow, does this song ever give me nostalgia. My eyes are even watery, it's that good. :)

[orinvee]

Yes, thank you so much for all the Buffy songs, NativeAmerican4Life. Not everyone in my family likes Buffy but I LOVE her! I guess it must be the Native American blood that runs in my vens (only 1/8 but enough to make me want to whoop and holler and do rain dances around a campfire). Now, if I can just find Groundhog...YeeDoggy!

[MrTops2100]

A good ole Saskatchewan girl,who made it big.Godbless.

[TheHonda550]

This song will resonate in the hearts of all those who've had to leave their land to start a new life elsewhere. A beautiful and truly Canadian song.

Classic Buffy! Thanks for posting!

[bulbheadmyass]

This has always been my favorite BSM song, Thank you so much for the lyrics also.

[JasmineMcEgan]

I love this song! But of course I love everything Buffy sings! Ever since I could remember. Love that voice. So different, passionate, unique and haunting. No one else like her on earth. Thanks! Love ya Buffy!

[EcstaticMomentz2]

Another of my favorites! I got my first Buffy Sainte-Marie album when I was not more than 12 :)

[denismcdougall]

@EcstaticMomentz2

i was about 8 or 9 when i first heard her...her work helped me get in touch with my algonquin heritage...she helped take away the shame for being first nation i felt growing up.

[NativeAmerican4Life]

@denismcdougall - :)

[EcstaticMomentz2]

@denismcdougall I am Native in spirit only but I would be so proud of my family for their artistry, athletics, and circle of life wisdom. Never be ashamed of that!!

[islandkeeper]

@denismcdougall Hi, I'm Algonquin too, probably not much, as Buffy says, your great great grandfather, "and you feel you're a part of these ones". It was my father's grandfather's wife, we don't know if she was half or quarter, saskatchewan was her home too, or tiny Thompkins in it, 50 people strong in 1920, she was living in 1870, I just published a book with them in it.

[fayedunawayfan]

Such a great song. Such spirit.

[LadyxSorrows]

I've been looking for this stuff forever!

I grew up on Buffy's amazing music. And it makes a proud Anishnabek Kwe today.

Thank you!

[hubbellgardner]
