  • My sister, a pianist and writer in her own rite, rewrote this song for mine and my wife's wedding song in 1981 and the sentiment and my love for my wife is still strong today. A few years ago, I took my daughter to see Randy in Miami. He played this song and my daughter looked at me and asked if I was crying. I told her why.

  • If this song doesn't break your heart, I wonder if you have one.

  • This man is a genius. He makes this look very deceptively easy. Just try to deliver a song with such honesty, and you'll find it's not easy at all

  • This is a very complicated song. The melody is beautiful, and some of the words are romantic words anyone would long to hear: "You're a flower, a river, a rainbow." However, as the song progresses, Newman engages in verbal irony. "I never listen to a word you say, and whenever you have a problem, I just turn away." The song can be looked at in many ways: self-delusion, the realistically flawed love of a man for a woman, or not really love at all. Beautiful song with a biting edge.

  • I named my daughter Angela Marie ... i was so imperfect and she was and is so perfect. This song reflects my regret and my deep love for her.

  • This song always makes me cry .. Marie was my mom's name ...

  • Damn, so great.

  • Heartbreakingly beautiful

  • Planes, Train and Automobiles kicks me in the teeth every time i watch it. Imagine the ending with Del sitting in the station bottle in hand singing this.

  • My name is Marie. :)

  • whoever disliked this is very sad
