What a fantastic voice I'm blown away, got to find some Ed Bruce songs for our radio show, plus Ed Bruce should of been on the list of stars appearing at the relaunch of the International Festival of Country Music here in Wembley London along with Reba McEntire and the new whippersnapper from NM Will Banister...Randy Williams

First time I ever heard Trace Adkins I thought "now there's the next Ed Bruce". I wonder if Trace has ever done a verson of this?

[jambalaya2010]

I just love this song and love to sing it.:-)

[vinylgroovs]

Love these lines: "Her talkin' blue eyes told me / the story of the love she failed to find / And without conversation I suppose / the lines on my face told her mine....." - Great song written by Ed Bruce & Ronnie Rogers.

[damedolores]

I just love this video.... I could play it over and over and over.....My all time favourite....

[ncontaclogicc]

verry good song thanks

[bobvocal]

Beautiful tone to this mans voice!!

[utgraddad56]

Thanks for uploading this - I was watching a western show on METV

, Bonaza I think, and said that guy is a singer - checked it out - and remembered this song. Thanks again for posting it.

[datsyhoehoe]

This was a song that an old love and me shared for some time. He was from south carolina and I was from texas. He was 37 and i was 20. I really loved him and we loved this song. I hadn't spoke to him in 35 years until I found his number and left this song as the message on his phone. He knew who it was and called me back and we had such a good talk! This was just last week. But my point is that these good old songs are ageless and this was a dear one to these 2 old lovers. Thank you!

[mytibone1]

MAN, I'M A SOUL BROTHER, AND THIS GENTLEMAN GOT CHOPS!! THIS SONG AND THE SINGER IS TOUCHING. BEAUTIFUL. THOSE LOVELY LADIES IN ATTENDANCE. TRULY LEGENDS. THANK YOU COUNTRY MUSIC.

[kevingodin]

Texas=Terrorist

[houlesranch]

I got to see this wonderful man in Concert back in the 1980s at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City..I still LOVE HIM!!

[OkieDokie306]

My Lord, the talent in that room, I wanna hear them all, too!

[roscoe496]

GOOD MUSIC, EXELLLENT PERFORMANCE.

[momsher1]

Love this song...love Ed!

[MrWeedpatch]

I believe Ed had everyone's attention on this one cuz he dwarfs most of them sitting there....

[LittleFeatWillin]

For any 'older' cowboy who found love with someone a bit younger, this song rings true...

Her gentle heart was broken,

In a way a tender lady shouldn't have to know.

And mine was somewhere in between.

Somethin' I should hold on to or let go.

Her talkin' blue eyes told me,

The story of the love she failed to find.

And without conversation I suppose,

The lines on my face told her mine.

So true. The lines on my face tell many stories. I've earned them. I'll share them.

[label1877]

This is amazing, so good it's studio quality.

[viniloti]

Ed Bruce tem fãs no Brasil?

[MegaAldo43]

Inimitabile.....

[CFRfan101]

[211kidrock]

[CountryQueen11]

Wonderful!

[RightProud]

I'm a 30's something Texan country music lover...since birth. Ed Bruce has one of the most amazing voices I've ever heard. He never got his due, imo. Love him and always will!

[crazywhtegrl]

[damedolores]

I could play this video, over and over and over..... Just love this artist and his music...

[211kidrock]

WOW......WOW..WHAT A VOICE..REMINDS ME OF VERN

[label1877]

This sounds so good... I had to wonder if he was lip syncing... awesome!

[hunterman1957]

What can I say? Is there any better older country music.

[MelvinWren]

@hunterman1957 guessing that you were born in 1957 i hope you know there is older country, than this song from the 80's. johnny cash, bob wills, hank sr, eddy arnold, townes van zandt, billy joe shaver, and then of course willie and waylon.

[rosemarie443]

yes this is on Country Family Reunion, which comes on, on RFD. 

[CFRfan101]

Ed Bruce is a great singer

[ManesNied69]

Great Voice from a great Men

[sidneyhamm]

Buck Trent is the one holding the microphone.

[fogologo100]

what a song. none better. this is Ed bruce . damn fine singer.

[MrDave61792]

There's not enough o's in Smooooooth to describe his voice

[56WMS]

I just singed up for You Tube so I could say this about this performance: Wow!

[hunterv41]

He's also a fine actor

[HillsBru]

great job!

[Mattea68]

@dave61792 I believe that is Banjo Master Buck Trent

[76memories]

I have watched this many times in the last few years and I'm always so happy when it's still here to enjoy. This guy is amazing -- how does he still stay so "young" at his age??? What a voice and what a personality and what a presence. This particular song reminds me of an important era in my life. Long ago, of course. But seeing all these folks assembled is heart warming.

[RobSmithJr]

Outstanding!!! This got me to find his official website and see that he's still spinning out tunes. I spotted him last year still acting as a politician in the film 'Public Enemies'. I'm off to buy a new Bruce Album!

[gussedup]

how in the world i forgot this song ,i guess blam it on old age lol

[HillsBru]

Looking at the responses, 1 no??? How is that possible. Great song by a great performer.

[CountryTonite2007]

Cool

[TheQueenOfCountry]

Wonderful song!

[jekiwe]

fantastic piece of music......!!!! his best......and gee....doesn't lane brody still look pretty awesome...i believe that's her (1:06 ???)

[Mattea68]

@jekiwe yes thats lane, doesnt she still look great, like i said b4 ed sure shows his age but his voice is still tops. Ronnie McDowell looks strung out on something and boy has T Graham Brown packed on weight

[mommenon1]

Absolutely awesome what a guy he is....and what a voice...wow...presence and personality.....

[teeger66]

He still sounds good....what an artist. "Age makes no difference" not to him anyways!

[Rocketfing3r]

We love you, sir.

[stonerace19]

This is greatness! A true artist!

[oaklandfla2]

Soooo good, thanks for posting.

Oak

[jaykayses]

this man is culture

[CountryQueen11]

I love this one with Ed Bruce!

Genial video! xoxo

Thanks:)

[SUSIANDERSON]

such a cute old man with so much music in his heart . .i love that...thx :o)

[BoInFlorida]

If anything he sounds BETTER! Thanks for this great post!

[castnbash]

Ed Bruce sounds as good in this vid as he did when he was 30 , honestly hear no difference , what a blessed voice !!

[skydogz1]

Still sounds great!

[GuriMalla2010]

Wow this is really great :)

Thanks :)

[robtjaws]

good stuff from the past. close your eyes and remember

[Sunburst64]

Is that Buck Trent holding the mic.? I aked him for his autograph in Branson, he said "Mayby Later". I told him "if you don't have time for me now,I won't have time for you later", and left. If it wasn't for Porter Wagoner, he would be sweeping floors at a restaurant somewhere. Jerk

[headredbone]

@Sunburst64 some of them are jerks. my two sons at the age of 4and 6, asked george jones for an autograph and he completely ignored them. it was at his show in Lake Charles, Louisiana. they were fan club members at that time. there was one other kid there besides mine and he ignored him too. i could understand if 500 people were beating down his door for an autograph. just three little boys that idolized GJ. we still love and listen to his music. i guess you could say that was acting like a jerk

[sistermoon999]

what year is this?

[kennyIsaacs]

Ed Bruce is also one of country music's Greatest Song Writers. he definatly is one of my favorite vocalist. Roy Clark just sat there with his mouth open. What he was hearing was stiring his soul

[highnrising]

He was a good songwriter but a pretty bad singer.

[mikeys316]

@highnrising A bad singer? Youre saying ed bruce is a bad singer? Buddy wtf are you smoking?

[graylyns]

Look through out the audience, you will never see the likes of these folks again. Masters each one of them.

[krokis54]

Ed has a great voice and he have writen so many beutiful songs. He sure is one of my fauvourites.

[DustyNTTown]

I liked this song when I was a kid. I'm 33 now and didn't think I could like it anymore than I did then. I was wrong. This is one of the best ever. The voice!

[ttjones1965]

Just an awesome upload! Thanks.

[MrBlodsven]

Pretty tune with pretty lyrics.....

[ohhellnoyoudidnt]

ed bruce was also on a episode of walker texas ranger titled "sons of thunder"

[tennesseelvr]

how could anyone NOT love this song!

[chkjns]

Ed hit #6 with this in 1982. Thanks for the beautiful music! I've been creating a channel to archive as much music as I can from around the world for the past century.Over 500 playlists so far covering specific artists and genres & every year since 1900.

I added this to Ed's playlist and the 1982 list!

[tennesseelvr]

only country can produce such love songs. hell i m an old geezer and its hard for me to keep a dry eye! thank you brotherhamlet for hours of heart break and smiles!

[tennesseelvr]

[AlaskAnna22]

Yo brotherhamlet - what happened to the other postings of all these great singers..they disappeared off U tube by the looks..?? Lacy, Larry, Janie, Lynn, etc...duh were they pulled off?

[AlaskAnna22]

Ed can STILL soooo sing great music - he just rocks... love it - thanks for sharing these wonderfully talented folks ... what a treat they are to see.... love them all... God Bless you brohamlet - and all of them..

[stirlingacre]

Ed still has a voice of velvet. One of the most talented all round human beings put on this earth. Wish we had more these days.

[magbrown1]

I love this one.. Nice to see all the Country Artists listening to this great singer

[MrAussierocker]

I cannot help but think of my g/f when I hear this song. She has green eyes but also the biggest mop of beautiful golden blonde hair. She used to be a shampoo model on national TV and she still has that beauty.

[justmusicandme]

He's so cute!! Really good singer,too!

[bchiles0123]

There is such a high degree of honesty in the way Mr bruce sings.

[DERedhead65]

~~ Becky

[zaaritha]

Absolutely great! Thank you!

[allnightpancakes]

Takes me back. I was so young when I first heard this I didn't understand half of what it was about. Great voice! Now I'm old enough to relate...

[magbrown1]

This is a great video. He sure can still sing country music, better then ever.

Thanks for this one. Mark

[norbie6]

One of the best!

[zhvoto]

Thanks Mark- Great- And I see Gene Watson in there-

Mitzi-

[srybishop]

What is this show? I have seen so many true classics posted from this show, and I want to find more! By golly, this is such a wonderful song.

[Mattea68]

Ed sure shows his age on here, however his voice is just as good as it was when he first cut this song in the late 70s-early 80s

[GeorgiaBoii32]

yeah hes amazing.

[tennesseelvr]

none better than this man his voice and his feelings

[Arcticfox36]

He can still hit the high and low notes.

[dagny1207]

Great song:-)

[supahip]

Just saw Ed in "Public Enemies" with Johnny Depp!

[randysus]

Ed, I've loved all your work for years. Don't stop singing.  The magic is still there! Randy

[wthjrtx1]

Its funny...the women wanna do him and the boys wanna be him...

The days of being a mans man are almost over. sad times

[wthjrtx1]

Ed bruce!!

What else is there to say?

Thank you posting from the great state of TEXAS!!!!

[bulbheadmyass]

Awesome performance. You don't get to see Ed Bruce live very much, and this is a great song.

[dagny1207]
