When I go don't cry for me
In my father's arms I'll be
The wounds this world left on my soul
Will all be healed and I'll be whole
Sun and moon will be replaced
With the light of Jesus' face
And I will not be ashamed
For my savior knows my name
It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away
Gold and silver blind the eye
Temporary riches lie
Come and eat from heaven's store
Come and drink and thirst no more
So weep not for me my friend
When my time below does end
For my life belongs to him
Who will raise the dead again
It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away
In my father's arms I'll be
The wounds this world left on my soul
Will all be healed and I'll be whole
Sun and moon will be replaced
With the light of Jesus' face
And I will not be ashamed
For my savior knows my name
It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away
Gold and silver blind the eye
Temporary riches lie
Come and eat from heaven's store
Come and drink and thirst no more
So weep not for me my friend
When my time below does end
For my life belongs to him
Who will raise the dead again
It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away

Awe another song written by Julie Miller and this time sung by her.
check out the Jars of Clay version too
I love the way Buddy Miller rocks out on this one.
Live Well, Die Well...Live Again in Valhalla.
Had to stop what I was doing to come check this out and see who it was. I'm giving it an 8

The idea that your life and soul started at conception and then lives on forever is not only illogical, it's laughable. So either start believing in reincarnation or accept that when you die, that's it.
There are far more possibilities than this binary (close-minded) conclusion.

And the earth used to be flat and the sun revolved around the earth etc.
I get your point, there is no proof, but we humans are far from knowing everything. I expect we never will.
People have striven to understand the world from the time we were able ponder such things. It used to be mainly expressed through religion and now, for many, it is through science and logic. Both have been used to justify terrible acts committed against other people and the whole world.
I suspect both are insufficient to explain the world. So what is next?

Actually no, it's another life. And doesn't exist.

If you like this, listen to 'The Lowlands of Holland', Steeleye Span. I wondered if it was a cover from the intro. This has more grunt though when it gets going...

Captain Agnosticism here. The afterlife is the carrot, hell is the stick. Neither exist except in the minds of believers. Moving on...

That voice stops me in my tracks! What a lovely song. You don't need to believe in any god to appreciate the beauty of a work of art. Plenty of atheists love marveling the ancient cathedrals of Europe. Why not love a song sung by a woman who might be a believer?
You don’t have to be a person of faith to appreciate the qualities and virtues of faith, the best of which inform the bones of this song: grace, mercy, and forgiveness. You don’t have to have a wounded soul to understand why those virtues might resonate with someone, but it helps.

I've been listening to Buddy and Julie Miller for almost two decades. I love their unique voices and country-rock vibe.
An incredible achievement in songwriting and performing.
Jesus Smile reflects in the moon and in the sun
Take already these energies
Don't wait the death to know if paradise or not
Sun is your real father
And Moon your real mother
You can decide just now to live among milk and honey

A pleasant melody, but the lyrics are frightening and represent the worst of cult thinking. There is nothing after this life, so don't squander it, and please, don't celebrate death like it's something to look forward to. It's an ending, not a beginning, and telling people that it's gonna be great is just bullshit. Instead, concentrate on making this life better if you can. Stop telling people that death is this great thing, prettied up in a nice melody like sugar to make the death more acceptable. One should strive for something better, not accept this big lie that there is something waiting after we die, because there is not.

Splitting hairs over country/western/American roots music must stem from overidentification with what passes for "Country" these days.

Awesome song/artist. Emmy Lou does it justice. Thanks RP!

A solid 9. It's not country, it's american roots music, and she wrote the song. She is, along with Buddy, at the epicenter of american roots music excellence!

To be fair, finding an invisible entity of any sort (even an Earth-bound, non-magician), is pretty challenging - believe me. I mean: they're invisible, dude. You'd have to use a spray bottle filled with glycerin or throw a bunch of talcum powder all over the place. Whether or not you locate them you still have to mop up and/or vacuum the room.

Anyone know if this is Julie Miller of Buddy & Julie Miller? I randomly caught their act in a little bar in Avalon (Santa Catalina Island), California, way back in 2001, and I was hooked, but have not heard anything from them since. Brought back a nice memory.
Cool guitar sound, and singin' too! 
This girl has an incredible story of abuse and survival. Her song is a testimony to her strength and faith. Haunting.

Yep, that sounds like a seriously crappy place to work. Wal-Mart have a deservedly bad rep for working conditions and pay. Consumers need to realise that cheap goods likely derive from screwed workers in McJobs on minimum wage. I'd no more buy from Asda (UK offshoot of Walmart) than I'd saw my knackers off with a rusty knife.

I used to work for Wal-Marx many years ago. They constantly screwed me out of hours by shorting my check 15 minutes here and 30 minutes there, clocking me out without my knowledge, and requiring that I get about 50 hours work done in about 40, and I'm in HUGE trouble if I go into overtime. I got paid 90 cents more as a department manager than the cashiers did. Also, that whole "needs to be 8 hours between shifts" thing? Nope. There were many days where I worked 7am to 4pm, and had to come back in at 8pm and work until midnight or 1am, go home to sleep, and come back in at 7am. Oh, and I still had to get the same 50 hours worth of work done.
This was more the rule than exception. I have talked to many former employees over the years from all over this part of the US and what I went through was pretty much par for the course.
Eff that effing place.
I bought from Walmart recently but your post reminded me why I shouldn't and won't again. The low prices are amazing, but many times if the product's quality can be lowered—say, socks or shirts—Walmart will do it. And the horror stories I hear about working at that place are unending.
As for the song, I really prefer Emmylou Harris's version...
I used to work for Wal-Marx many years ago. They constantly screwed me out of hours by shorting my check 15 minutes here and 30 minutes there, clocking me out without my knowledge, and requiring that I get about 50 hours work done in about 40, and I'm in HUGE trouble if I go into overtime. I got paid 90 cents more as a department manager than the cashiers did. Also, that whole "needs to be 8 hours between shifts" thing? Nope. There were many days where I worked 7am to 4pm, and had to come back in at 8pm and work until midnight or 1am, go home to sleep, and come back in at 7am. Oh, and I still had to get the same 50 hours worth of work done.

Hey, I'd never heard of her, or Buddy Miller, before a few days ago when RP played "Strange Lover" by her. Now I've got new good music to listen to. Thanks.
Nice

Yep, that sounds like a seriously crappy place to work. Wal-Mart have a deservedly bad rep for working conditions and pay. Consumers need to realise that cheap goods likely derive from screwed workers in McJobs on minimum wage. I'd no more buy from Asda (UK offshoot of Walmart) than I'd saw my knackers off with a rusty knife.

Good song, ghastly album cover.

I like this - without Ms. Miller twang, the arrangement and instrumentation could easily be mistaken for a Fairport Convention track.
It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away
Steve Earle influence? I like this.
This song is purt' near horrible, y'all.
I'd love to like this song more, as it is a great SONG, but Julie Miller has the singing voice of an 8-year-old girl, and I just can't abide.
Another awesome artist I would not have discovered without RP!
VERY-VERY GOOD!

Caught Buddy Miller backing Robert Plant (with vocals help from Patti Griffin) at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Buddy was great, couldn't really hear Patty, Robert was having a very off day, but enjoying himself immensely.
Buddy and Julie's work is among the best of the Americana genre. Depths there not immediately apparent, making it an art form that will endure.

You are correct..I cannot understand this theory..I'm not putting it down either..but celebrating it.. marvel at it..? naaah bam23 wrote:

I suggest that we carry within ourselves carbon and some other elements that were once in the form of dinosaur poop, but why is this not something to celebrate and marvel at, instead of another weak effort to put down a theory that you do not appear to actually understand?

"All My Tears" ........Julie Miller with Emmylou Harris........
Also decidedly not a C&W fan, but this one had a good feel to it. Voice and guitars went together perfectly.
Don't much like C & W but this is nice...almost as nice as the Chris Isaak that followed it!
As per the "law of gravity doesn't work" comment below, it actually does, as long as you're on planet earth!

Compelling snare so hard it makes you sit up and take notice, classic vocals, and gurgling low register country guitar.
Classic American music.

Well I was checking the comments to see if it was Buddy Miller singing with her. Great song, by the way. Saw her and Buddy many years ago when they opened for Steve Earle and they were awesome.
Not sure how this got so far off topic, but thought I'd mention that Newton's Law of Gravity disagrees with Einstein's Theory of Relativity in some cases. They've been able to test some of these disagreements, and guess which what - the Theory was right and the Law was wrong (one case is the details of Mercury's orbit)

Is that the guy from Union Station that she is singing with?
My first thought when I heard her voice was Casey Chambers.
She is amazing solo but I love her collaborations w/Buddy too.

Sounds like she swallowed a Wiffle ball halfway down but is still trying to sing through it.

Racial/Geographic stereotypes born from rank ignorance and provincial tunnelvision, a classic malady. Please buy a few plane tickets and read some books, you'll be amazed at the depths you've not explored. and what's with the bleached out album cover photograph? has she got a massive nose or something?
