Thank you so much for posting this! I have been looking for this and the girl's name, but I should have just come here first. :)
That was an incredible moment in the show, at least for me. Maybe not just for me, though, because during and after this song several people were wiping their eyes, sniffing, etc. It got to people, Kentucky people.
i had never really thought about this song until i heard Almira's version. turns out, JJ wrote this song and everyone can relate to it.
and Dewayne - that song got to a lot more people than just people in Kentucky. given i wasn't there, but it speaks volumes especially coming from an 11-yr old girl.
JJ's guitar skills will make a girl cry! I think this is my favorite Mofro song (at the moment, anyway). Thanks for posting, blackwater!

Even though it costs me about $800/yr I always said I’d leave it going forever. If you’d like to make a little donation to help me offset these costs please click above or go here.
