    John Prine’s music video for “Summer’s End” depicts a family mourning the loss of a loved one, alluding to addiction and the opioid crisis Prine says “is tearing American families apart.”https://n.pr/2IoUDX1

        Tears flowing, beautiful song. Lost my son just 2 weeks ago and he leaves behind a 13 year old son. It takes our children, our heart, and our soul.

        Always been my favorite songwriter. Takes societal problems from coal mining to opioids to a personal level.

        Remember Sam Stone? Very relevant for the time back in the early 70's.

        Amazing song and an incredible video interpretation. @jasonisbell’s Codiene is a more literal and no less devastating meditation on the opioid crisis.

        A most moving video and John Prine's song is the key to it all.

        John Prine has been one of my favorites for more years than I want to admit.

        Is there a song for ppl like me who need pain killers to get through the day? Ppl w/my illness often commit suicide & some self amputate but it doesn't work bc of phantom pain. Now it's harder for us to get our meds, but who the hell ever talks about us? No one.
