[LindaJ551]

[MichellePelus3]

@Daddygeezee It more like 1:30am for me...close enough right?

[TheKingOfKings1215]

makes my beer taste better

[barto11000]

Good to see Dwight patched up his jeans for the album cover photo.

[SamayelIam]

captures the feeling of pulling a trailer at night to some faroff town for next-day delivery ... you can almost feel the cold clear desert air whispering past the cab as the headlights illuminate a seemingly endless dusty highway ...

[Wrongway1965]

@SamayelIam .. Nice! I know that feeling very well .. be it N.D. or N.M., @ this time of year, it all kinda looks the same..

[greenfeatherful]

i trucked 4 over 11yrs ...brain injury from a fall . stopped that and no life what so ever.....! just quit in aug..2011.... was n a very bad place when this song came out.....!

[antalamo]

I still can't believe this is "Doyle" from Slingblade. Yoakam played the part too well. I still can't put that character with this voice...

[yurriah]

3 people were only 999 miles away from home!

[antalamo]

@yurriah Those 3 people will always be a mile short what ever they do in life......

[yurriah]

@antalamo haha

[raspberriesandar]

1:25 am counts too ;-)

[antalamo]

Great song for an OTR trucker......especially when you're 6 weeks on the road without home time.

[TheWestbrooke]

@antalamo Been there brother. I had to come off the road. It made me a drunk and a dope head. It's a very lonely place, the road. I will never go back God willing!!!!!!!!

[Derekflowins]

sometimes nowhere is the best place to be.

[Murfinias]

got this on my mp3 player, helps work fly by. Except they caught me on video "bee-boping" to it..Was kinda embarrassed but hey.. its a good song..lolz

[sameoldcc]

I'm not a huge Dwight fan but I love this song .

[simbasun1965]

@lissakr11 , This is some of the greatest country music ever. love listening to Dwight.

[TheBossanchor]

I've compiled this on an album with George Strait and Patsy Cline.......all good company don't you think?........Classic!

[TheWestbrooke]

@TheBossanchor Great company brother.

[bigegan88]

I grew up listening to Dwight Yoakam and still enjoy his music. I also love any country music from the 80's and 90's, it's the best music that has ever been released. Today's country can't hold a candle to this music. What ever happened to country music?

[TheBrynlen]

got to be the best song for driving home

[simbasun1965]

i still love his music

[lissakr11]

@simbasun1965 Same here!

[tstoneking185]

i loved listening 2 dwight yoakam growing up.he was my favorite singer

[coreyval0801]

too bad he dosent make anymore songs...i grew up listening to himin my mommas car

[BEYONDEXSISTINGSTAGN]

he's my my fave country artist male of course like she said missed ya on the cma's miss you. he's the tom petty of country.

[jerdeb4evr]

A good song for driving alone at night a thousand miles from nowhere. Nevada, the only place you can be a thousand miles from nowhere.

[mamacasteel]

Really like to hear this one anytime of the day!

[briant420]

If you want to play country music that doesn't suck, this is a good start.

[TheSpicy63]

Bruises on my memories..... that line gets me... ***sigh****

[Coleen1960]

where the "L" did u go dwight..haven"heard from you in awhile...miss you.

[jerdeb4evr]

@Coleen1960 The pretty boy New Country singers have crowded out the real Country Western singers.

[deweywestdeerpa]

A thousand miles from nowhere isn't that wear every one wants to be. I no I do.

[kramerfarms1]

pickles in my head



[bigduck187]

@kramerfarms1 echos in my head.........not pickles hahahaha

[NFLPICKS2010]

@kramerfarms1 Echoes

[wisegirl247]

Dwight Yoakam is one of the best!

[Daddygeezee]

THE song to play around 2 am, alone.

[jerdeb4evr]

@Daddygeezee On the road with the windows down, your world as big as the headlights see. pushing back the darkness til light gets the upper hand and reveals to you the land. You've been thru the dark, A thousand miles from nowhere.

[madtexan89]

@Daddygeezee Does 1:34 a.m. count? LOL

[BollingerCoHunters]

@Daddygeezee haha its 2:05am here in missouri, not a sole here but me and my american honey and coke. taking abreak from finals week

[chockiemoo]

[nutbagbrew102]

[TheCoastalKid]

@Daddygeezee

[Daddygeezee]

@TheCoastalKid

He's made some crappy badass movies roles, except for Slingblade.

[shawn8254]

@Daddygeezee sound like my ol man!! haha

[justkadiejo]

oh Dwight where did you go. I am still waiting on you so please walk that beautiful butt in those tight jeans to me! your wife, Kadie Jo =)

[SROpriest]

I can listen to Dwight fer sure and some of John Michael Montgomery and thats about it for CW

[TrinityMThomas]

I hate country music with a PASSION!!! This is not that "pop" excuse for country they sell now days. This is just great music by a great guitarist with an oddly angelic voice.

[jjhawksjj]

My 16 year old daughter has a wide variety of music taste. Lately she's been listening to some country (which made me very happy) and I told her, if you're gonna listen to country music you had better add Dwight to your catalog because he is THE MAN.

[htims7]

THE BEST COUNTRY VOICE SINCE GEORGE JONES

[hammeron39]

Im hurting . . Linda, 

[BIGE1312]

@hammeron39 Why are you hurting Linda? You better stop. That's not nice.

[nigbot1]

the only guy i would let my wife cheat on me with

[henshy01]

one of my most favourit country musicians...

[XXXBILLSwIFe76]

Got to see this concert and I was so star-struck that everyone at work the next day asked if I was in love with someone! I told em "hell yeah - Dwight Yoakam!"

[XXXBILLSwIFe76]

My brother passed away 8 years ago in May, 2011. He always had me play this cd when he came over with this song being first!!

[alkhall123]

Bakersfield Sound was born in Sherman, TX

[mobius1aic]
