[ArctiikStorm]

Sons of Anarchy, I actually cried at this song, so powerful.



[robertr000]

cried like a baby

[hawthornroot]

I first heard this moving song on "the ground truth", a documentary on the iraq war!

[shortyhl22]

Wow I just heard this on Sons of Anarchy too. This song gives me chills I love it!!!!

[MrTushface]

same here, saw it on sons of a what a great song dropped a few tears

[barrywilliamsmb]

Shore do love this tune and you bighead404 for uploading it.

[ILuvCaroline]

One of the greatest songs ever!

[ILuvCaroline]

Best song she ever wrote. Now she said she wrote this about her Grandmother on a recent webchat with the Courtyard Hounds. Was her grandmother's name Mary? Because she stated that she didnt consider herself religious. So I'm wondering what made her write this song?

[lere97]

Same here I saw it on Sons. I was in tears, what a beautiful song.

[robyngarnier]

Same, watched it on SOA. Beautiful song

[rachjessee]

this video and song are both incredible.

[SIRSMITH08]

[firewallx]

@SIRSMITH08 perhaps it's because you have a closed mind.

^^

[SIRSMITH08]

@firewallx I wished i,d closed my eyes .

[firewallx]

@SIRSMITH08 lol

[SIRSMITH08]

beautiful song ,ive just heard it for the first time ,it was playing while the credits were on for a film called Ground Truth about returning troops from iraq ,very sad film and song ,i thought it was the dixie chicks ,its now on my ipod .

[bigdrewbowski]

@SIRSMITH08 That's where I heard it too. That was a really moving place for this song

[MichaelDio]

i love this song. it is beautiful. i see only one album Patty has. Not on the 2010 album. is this on another album of hers? Please help.

[BipolarForJesus]

Emotional video & photos!! My own mother is 82 & losing her mind. She can be colder than ice & sweeter than honey in the same minute.  May God bless you.

[laurieheartsdcx]

Patty Griffin is a genius. 

[HALcharity]

My mommy sings this song :))) I had to look it up.

[ILuvCaroline]

where can i find the Dixie Chick version of this song?

[laurieheartsdcx]

@ILuvCaroline I don't believe they've recorded it. There is a live version on YouTube, but it's recorded on a camcorder so the sound quality isn't that great. I hope they record it and release it soon, because they do a beautiful cover of this beautiful song. I love all their music, and they do great versions of Patty's songs.

[xkaitxrocksxdudex]

i had to do an essay comparing this song to the book A Thousand Splendid suns. probably the best essay i've ever written. love this song.

[lcoppola82]

so beautiful and soa is how i first heard it too. that whole scene made me cry!!!

[hollycromwell]

the ultimate mothers day song

[barrywilliamsmb]

Man oh man, yes.

Thank you, bighead404.

[lisadawnlong]

I've got to tell you that I've played and replayed 'Mary' in your many variations with you singing with others, alone and now of this one. You are solo, as Mary was and this one has really etched my heart. Thank you, Patty...

[57babyboomer]

Lovely song along with a lovely video!

[carriejoy724]

Beautiful!

[jeffroyo]

Looking for my birth-mom named Patricia Griffin. Sons of Anarchy was paused on my DVR as I was writing a poem from the heart about my longing for my birth mother, just as I thought wow that's the deepest poem I've ever written, the DVR ran out of space and started playing on its own. Guess who was singing, Patty Griffin! Coincidence or law of attraction? Regardless I'm on a mission to find her thanks to your songs! If by any chance these blue diamonds are yours 3/22/81 jeffroyo@hotmail.com

[harrylampton]

"...Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ruin

you're covered in secrets

Your'e covered in treetops, you're covered in birds..."

It just really doesn't get any better than this; superb lyrics and a beautifully moving song.

[kingsindiandefence]

Women bear the burden of the world from the time they carry us in their womb, clean the crap from our nappies, wipe the tears when we skin our knees and stand by helpless as their sons organise the world to hurt some other woman's son. If we had the love for each other that a mother has for her child we would be living in far better world.

[psetto727]

If Jesus loves his Mother too the fullest.. why wouldnt he want us to love her too!?! Hail Full of Grace the Lord is with You! Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb!

[gurhlygirl]

I liken this songwriting to be in the same high esteem as Peter Gabriel. Ever here "Washing of the Water"?

I feel somehow connected to every word that comes from you. Please keep singing.

[Mikeyo335]

Beautifully done !!!

[rosebud8028]

I cannot help crying my eyes out...it is so so moving...touches my soul deeply xxx

[lorraineutube]

Thanks for this lovely video. It does the song justice. Her lyrics are so heartbreakingly beautiful, they take my breath away every time I hear the song. I think it touches me especially deeply because I am the mother of two boys.

[macsvo2]

Wow

[sweetlikez]

great job on the video!!!

[Cinders29]

Thank you for reposting this. I missed it terribly while it was gone. It is the very best version of Patty's singing, her song, and the spirit of mother-love.

[barrywilliamsmb]

Pain and suffering aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

These sounds grease the draggin' line.

Thank you so much Patty Griffin and bighead404.

[reliablebow]

Thank God for Our Mothers...

My favorite and best part of the Passion of the Christ was when Jesus and Mary shared the laugh together...My other favorite part, though heartbreaking, was when MotherMary was searching for HerChild throught the streets....a Mother'sHeart

[nllleonard]

Thank you so much. I really missed this.

I very much appreciate you posting and hope it will remain. Blessings. ~NAncy

[reliablebow]

Thanks Friend for sharing this Beauty...bet You have Quite a Garden;)

[juandisimo100]

[sukeymellslikedukey1]

touching...gives you a true feeling of a mothers love...

[beary2056]

I first heard this moving song on "Sons of Anarchy". Wow!!!! The video is great, try to not shed a tear or two, you will in spite of yourself.

[iaintfazzed]

@beary2056 yea me too i live in nz and we're only just started the 2nd season here

[Amelia073]

Beautiful video, incredible song. Made me cry and call my mom.

[Thorie16]

[tjonessc]

Being featured on "Son's of Anarachy" will help...

[Thorie16]

it did

[Redz136]

Exactly why I came looking for it.

[Zally23]

Fantastic song. You'd get more views if you put "Patty Griffin" in the title. This song deserves to be heard.
