In these frigid months, it’s important to remember the warm things of life. Like… the sun. Remember that ol’ thing? Keeps us kinda warm on cold days and scorches us in the summer? Yeah, the sun. As a way to remind you that summer is only *Googles “when does summer start”* holy crap it’s still 5 months away!? Well, that’s a bummer. As a way to brighten your cold days for the next 5 months, here are a few fantastic versions of “You Are My Sunshine.” Which is your favorite?
One of the earliest recordings from way back in 1939 by the Pine Ridge Boys.
Relatively new country singer Zach Bryan…
Singer/songwriter band Shovels and Rope…
The Man in Black, Johnny Cash…
“Jar of Hearts” singer Christina Perri…
Alternate take by The Dead South…
Obviously there are many, many performances of this song. It’s been a classic for decades. My favorite version is Johnny Cash with his soulful, haunting version. Which is yours?
