[BluegillGreg]

Great song, great singer, great band.

[TheWilliamjsmith]

This song explains my life so much.

[helenlars]

the man has much music in his voice and you can under stand every word .. like that man..

[NECKINMEDIA]

such a pity that the sound quality is sooo bad! anyway, it's a great song!

[jimincairns]

George Strait IS Texas!

[mrbobevans]

@jimincairns Dwight Yoakam is way better than George Strait. George Strait is too preppy for me.

[mrbobevans]

@jimincairns Dwight Yoakam is way better than George Strait. My Highwaymen 2 is Dwight, Garth, Alan and Randy.

[jimincairns]

@mrbobevans ...Yoakam is from Pikeville, Kentucky; Garth Brooks comes from Tulsa, Oklahoma: Alan Jackson comes from Newnan, Georgia....and Randy Travis comes from Marshville, North Carolina. As I said....George Strait is TEXAS.

[skatahkickflip]

@mrbobevans I love George Strait, Dwight Yoakam, Randy Travis, Daryle Singletary, Garth Brooks, But i couldn't Live without my John Michael Montgomery!

[HerbWalker]

Well Ive played ABM with Terry Bullard before in El paso Tx & I think his version is just as good! :)

[starkey97]

i worked bass with Kelly Schoppa for a number of years and he ALWAYS gave terry stafford credit for writing ABM.

[mrpowerstroke4life]

@starkey97 kelly schoppa is a relative! by marriage tho. why didnt he ever go big? he is such an awesome singer!!!!!

[lolantui]

kinda hard for stafford to give any credit, or money. he's been dead for 14 years.

[8bitprice]

Apparently my friend thinks this is a better song than U2's "I still haven't found what I'm looking for", he obviously does not know good music.

[baucojm]

@8bitprice Because it is you numfuck

[tjhornet56]

@obamaislessthanbush and @lolantui

i looked into it and kelly schopa was signed to the same record company and did in fact write this song and terry stafford stole it...this is in no way insulting george straight he is the king and him and schopa are now friends, but it is insulting staford he is a theif and needs to give his credit and money from this song to schopa

[Obamaislessthanbush]

kelly schoopa wrote this song he is my uncle terry stafford is a bastard amen

[lolantui]

what do you mean? amarillo is my fav song & am curious about its origins

[Materene]

@Obamaislessthanbush

I was a regular at the Houston Wells Fargo while Kelly was the House Band, these were some of the best times I have ever spent. His music couldn't be matched by any singer or band in the greater Houston area, and all of us frequented most of them from Gilleys to the Yellow Rose and the Winchester, and not forgetting the Randy Conor club the Western Swing. I just wish I could tell him how much all of us enjoyed his music. ABM was his and will always be his.

[mrpowerstroke4life]

@Materene are you talking about kelly schoppa as the house band??

[rodeostar34]

I Love This Song!! I know it by heart!!!

[senjoski]

I like the version by Chris Ledoux.

[diggin4oil]

The best fiddles in the world!!!

[SavageArmsMan]

What year is this from?

[stallionvogel]

probably the best song george does. I saw him live 3 times, and everytime he did this, it sent chills down my spine. with the double fiddles palying in unison. hes a great performer. no thrills or frills.

[abst14]

always will be a beautiful melody and performance by George and the Ace in the Hole Band. I think he sings even better now.

[paintballchampion15]

song make me feel good about texas

[iosefcaro]

lovelyyyy!!!!!

[barrelracin4life]

i love this song george strait is so hott and he has a beautiful voice i love all of his music even the new stuff well most of it

[SummerRkl]

Those fiddle intros, fills, and backup in this song are as perfect for instrumental accompaniment possible.
