Ok, I see now. This is an account of quotes from Allion Russell. I've never heard of her, but always pumped finding new artists. Country? Folk?
So, if you are some big singer or not, thank you for being as pumped about Julie as I am since 30+ years.
And Annie, of course, my goodness, what a GODDESS!
And I LOVE how she wears her wrinkles with beauty and not get plastic surgery!
Well done, whoever you are
Also, great song and genre! ๐

Day 14 ๐ชฉ
Panic At The Disco "Don't Threaten me with a Good Time"
www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5Nq...
And the humble Emmylou Harris NOT intruding, just listening.
This is a Supergroup of Americana, Country, Folk. A true family!
I'd pay Bruno Mars ticket prices to see them live, just once.
When I hear Patty's music, having lived in the States for few years & visited many times (I'm from and in Europe), Patty is the only artist where I am catapulted back to the American continent. I still don't know why!!!
"Florida" and "Rain" are some of my faves
www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx1l...
P.P.S. I haven't watched this video in years, forgot that Patty Griffin actually sang with Julie here.
I just took a picture of the "Meet Julie Miller" 1st album inside sleeve where she asked a friend to contact her. It's not on the vinyl cover, but the CD inner art cover. There is no FREE SPIRITED artist like her.
In those days we still devoured album text & art. I hope her friend reached out to her
Yeah, I know that video since at least 15 years. I saw Emmylou live once. Saw Julie 3 times and even though I don't believe in god anymore, I "pray" she does one more trip to Europe!
P.S. another great artist is sitting there, Patty Griffin, who is amazing in her own right. But she collborated and was in a relationship with Robert Plant for a while.
Another video with Emmylou etc.
I DREAD the day to hear sould she pass! I really dread the day!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGVj...
she wanted to use that song already on her 1st album but was hindered by the stupid record company as they said it would be too bold for a debut solo album. She had to fight a lot w/ecord labels. Amy Grant sang backing vocals on 1. album
Emmylou w/Julie & Buddy ๐

3/3
there was no Internet at the time,or at least not for the masses, she used her albul cover to look for her friend! I have tolook it up,might take a photo of the message & post later. She's one of a kind!
The other thing is that on the Orphansalbum, the song "SOS" (sick of sex being abused etc)
2/3
Oh yeah, "All My Tears" is beautiful. A classic. Her 1st solo album "Meet Julie Miller" & her 3rd album "Orphants & Angels" my faves.
I have the 1. album on VINYL!! it sells for $80 or more now. The fun bit, on the back or inside the album, Julie wrote a message to a lost friend to call her, as

Day 14 โ A song that feels like advice
My fave music-couple Julie & Buddy Miller did this song after trump in his 1st term said that bleach will heal people of Covid. It'sad, this has to even be written! ๐คฆ
Don't Drink Bleach!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=H57R...
Ikr? ๐
If you check the comments under that song, someone wrote "HAHAHAH get woke and write some real music like you used to."
That person doesn't have humour and doesn't seem to understand that this song is on purpose done in such a simple, dumb way that the people in the back can understand it.
Ok, I just blocked that Caroline person who reposted your post. These "women" or AI bot s3x accounts are rampant on Twitter, always liking or reposting a post to draw attention. I hope Bluesky doesn't get as bad as X.

Bright Eyes / Conor Oberst "When the President talks to God"

Correction. I saw her 3 times, twice in London and once in Germany. I hope my wish comes true and I see them again before we all close our eyes.
Oh boy. For real? People really drink bleach??
Yeah, Julie is one of a kind. Love her & her hubby to bits. The most realest peoole and musicians there are.
Last thing then I shut up. During the first year of the pandemic when trump suggested that bleach might help, Buddy & Julie did a satire song:

#MeetJulieMiller
My all time favourite artist Julie Miller, interview w/husband Buddy Miller around mid-late 1990s.
She makes rare appearances now, but still writing some of the best songs.
youtube.com/watch?v=czWt...
An older interview, als from the 1990s or early 2000s. With Buddy.
They know each other from a previous band before Julie went solo. Julie didn't like Buddy @ first. ๐
He was in the background supporting her during her solo career. Now Julie is supporting Buddy's work.
youtube.com/watch?v=czWt...
Julie's story was streamed in 1990s. Surviving abuse as a child, she was one of the, if not THE first artist/public person to speak about child abuse when no-one spoke about it.
Saw her twice in concert. My all time fave artist. Have all her ๐ฟ
Her hubby Buddy's a gem too
youtube.com/watch?v=cb2C...
Yes, Julie is a gem. There's none like her. Know her since early 90s when I was a baby ๐
She writes for/with her husband Buddy Miller who played w/Robert Plant, Allison Krauss, Emmylou Harris etc.
Julie had a hard childhood & is withdrawn now most of the time. She's older now. The above is from 1994
