"And I remember every town / And every hotel room / And every song I ever sang / On a guitar out of tune / I remember everything / Things I can't forget / The way you turned and smiled on me / On the night that we first met / And I remember every night / Your ocean eyes of blue / How I miss you in the morning light / Like roses miss the dew," Prine croons as a string of postcards flutter by, showing everything from personal photographs, to elaborate sketches of the singer, and fans sharing some of their favorite song lyrics of his.
Penned by Prine and his longtime collaborator Pat McLaughlin, the new lyric music video deepens the poignancy of the song's words, setting them to postcards mailed to the singer from his devoted fanbase. Though we tragically lost the artist this spring due to complications from the coronavirus, "I Remember Everything" is a haunting, beautiful tribute to his cutting power as a songwriter-the lyrics both morose and uplifting, timeworn and delivered with breath anew.
What's that we hear? The echo of your hearty "yes, please?" Well then, join us an the late, great John Prine, as the celebrated singer and songwriter leads us on a journey with his final recorded song, "I Remember Everything."
