A few months ago, it was late, and I was doing dishes while listening to random videos here on YouTube when a video of a live Nashville performance from 1995 of Emmylou Harris singing "Prayer in Open D" came on.

I grew up listening to Emmylou. I know I'd heard this song many times before. I guess it just hadn't really landed until now.

It completely stopped me in my tracks.

It's hard to explain, but it almost felt like waking up a memory inside of me that had been asleep for a very long time.
