I am so glad to grow up with such wonderful music. At almost 18, I have always loved the oldies, classic at some of today's country, disco, and '80s-'90s metal, and today's hard rock music (like DragonForce for example). Seriously, Michael Jackson is the only pop musician I listen to. The other pop, rap, and hip hop artists all suck.
He is great and the gap is his and should be left alone. My mom had one and so do I and I think it has it's own uniqueness. Doesn't impact his beautiful singing. I just love this guy!!!
I've always loved Charley Pride's singing. You'd think that he'd have made enough money to get his front teeth crowned, however. That gap doesn't really add to his appearance!
@TheMPOEye I'm not concerned with appearences. People place far too much importance on physical beauty. We all have unique features and the gap in his teeth is his, but it sure doesn't have any effect on his talent.
@TheMPOEye@TheMPOEye Actually, I always thought it gave him character. It is pretty boring these days... in this time of cookie-cutter looks via plastic surgery and cosmetic dentistry, of which celebrity entertainers are now especially fond, and with it are setting an unrealistic standard of appearance for the majority of kids. Charley Pride is a unique individual for more than the gap in his front teeth... ( I consider it a bonus)
@TheMPOEye He was once ask about the gap in his teeth and commented that he was afraid that if he had it fix his voice would change and he would have to find a real job that he might not love as much.
He can sing. AND YES I do have a lot of His Albums. He's just one of US. Charley Pride, I'm grateful you touched us. Don't ever forget that WE LOVE YOU ok? I won't!
seen Charlie Pride in early 80's with my dad and again in 2009 without my dad. : (...one of the greatest singer song writers around...he was my dads fav...i know all his old songs...
Oh Lord, I pray that by Your Holy Hand You will release my wife of 41 years from the bondage of alcoholism. In the name of Your Son, my Savior, Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
when I was about 8 years old I remember singing this at evening service. I had a tiny little pip squeak of a voice and My knees were shaking and I had to pee the whole time. But I remember my dad saying "Thats My son!" and mam wiping her eyes with those pretty hankerchiefs women use to use. what a wonderful song and memory this brings
I love this song. I had the priviledge to sing this on the Ryman. I would love to sing a verse of this song or Chrystal Chandeliers, if I was allowed to sing to you or with you 30 October 2010. I can't wait to see you. I read your book it's good. Best Wishes LittleCountryDJ
a complete box set of all his hits and not a greatest hits cd with 10 songs but a box set of 4 or 5 cds i can name 100 songs or more now thats what im talking about now people its a long way over due i whant one now love charley.
Charlie Pride is an amazing man...as well as an awesome performer, he has a talent that surpasses most...Charlie, George Jones and Conway Twitty were the foundation of Country music...and will live forever through their wonderful music...
As a child I grew up on Charley Pride. It was through his Gospel songs that I accepted the Lord. I would love to find where i could get His Albums on CD - "Did you think to pray" & "Sunday Morning with Charley Pride". When he came to Australia years ago, my mother had asked him and sadly he said they don't produce those albums anymore. I have been searching in old records stores for over 15 years. I want my Children to experience what I did as a Child. Can anyone please help? please? :-)
@TheDonervan Try Amazon. They got a lot of old albums remastered on CD's. They have all the old rock'n roll stars and it would not surprise me if they got good ol' Charlie as well. Good luck in your search!!!
My favorite Gospel song by charley too.His first Gospel album in my opinion is his best.I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert here in Maine 5times from the 70s to early 80s.He's very popular in Canda;get his LIVE dvd and you'll understand why.THANKS for posting;and THANKS charley for the music and memories from your concerts.
The album he released the year I was born! A great and admirable man. Not only is his music outstanding (listen to him almost daily on LP, CD and MP3 - albums the best), but his story is incredible. Truly a blessing to us all.
God bless your heart for posting this song. Its a wonderful song, true gospel song. Wish all the other so called gospel songs were like this. It brings back so many wonderful memories from my childhood, and is my mothers fave. God bless you
We all have a favorite places of childhood. Mine is my church that I grew up in and was married in. thanks to mom and dad for taking care of me as a child you done well and I will be passing those values and morales down to my son as he grows also.. I love you mom dad and all of my brothers and sisters.
First I got this song as I was listening to the radio program peformed by a disjockey who is well good at country music. He made a name for himself. I run into that music. I was touched and changed again. You are so blessed!
I think young people today are missing an awfully lot. Our third grade teacher had the class sing this song, all together. My immediate family all used to sing it. Thank you for posting!
Love this version, but I remember that Andy Griffith episode I first heard this. More people have referred to that particular show than any other I can think of. Andy and Barney's version was so poignant; what a great memory.
I'm watching this episode now. I love these old songs that my grandmother sang in our Pentecostal church in Cali. This particular episode is a reminder for us to "slow down" in life. Awesome!
My favorite song, my granddaddy would always play this for me on his guitar, it was awesome, I can still see his fingers changing cords, what great memories, he taught me to play and even went with me to pick out my guitar, thanks for the posting!
I love Pride,I live in Dallas,years ago at Christmas we drove by his house,he was outside with
his family putting up decorations.
