Keith was a very handsome young man, deep voice, who put so much heart and soul into his singing, he shines. SO Hot is what he is. His song to Lori just amazes me. Can you imagine ? husband in Nashville singing to you on the airwaves. HOT, I tell ya, HOT. Still love his v o i c e .
I think a thank you is in order for his band Miami, you guys are often forget about but the music that u guys played nite in and nite out for Keith was truly amazing and only my best for u guys where ever u may be. You guys ROCK!!!!!! Back then and till this day you guys are my favorite band hands down. God Bless you always.. The baddest band in all the land.......MIAMI
@lno71 Thanks for recognizing the other musicians, but even beyond them was an arranger, the 'architect' of the entire package. My top music hero is a man who arranged top hits in the late 1950s for Johnny Mathis, Don Cherry, Guy Mitchell, & Marty Robbins. That arranger was Ray Conniff, who would record over 1200 songs of his own, combining swing & jazz and human voices sounding like instruments. Hope you might check out my 550 playlists of the best music on earth. There's one for Keith. Chuck
Keith died two years before I was born but don't think that I don't know him. If anybody listens to Keith then they know exactly who he is. He showed himself through his music. He is a legend in my eyes and there is no country music singer in my opinion that can hold a candle next to him. His music can always get me through the bad times. It's so true when they say only the good die young. R.I.P Jesse Keith Whitley
Keith Whitley what a pure and geniune voice. a talent that this world will never see again.... he was a gift sent to us for a short while but what a gift he was. his music will forever live on. Keith THANK YOU for the music and memories but most of all just for being you.....country music royalty!!!! You fucking ROCK!!!! .... Keith miss you brother and keep singing....again.... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!!!!!!
Keith Whitley would have been the biggest country star of all times, if his life had not ended so tragically. He had such a soft soothing country voice. He was and still is the BEST!
Keith, I got over being mad at you for leaving. I know you had your demons just like I had and still have mine. We both took ourselves out of the business, You by dying, me by just walking away. Keith, I miss you. I miss the country that you made. Hell, you wouldn' t know country today. Lorrie didn' t sell out. She' s still a country Queen. Neither did Willie, Jones, Straight and Haggard. The Ladies? Only one left is Connie Smith. Country misses you. You are remembered. Peace and love.
i was a senior in high school when he died and the pain is still felt till this day. there will never be another talent like this one. his voice and talent could never be replaced or duplicated and to his family god speed.. He was my HERO and i am eternally grateful that i got to enjoy his music and see him in concert . KEITH WHITLEY YOU ROCK AND KEEP SINGING IN HEAVEN
A Letter To Keith. Please indulge. You had one of the purist voices that I knew. Much better than mine. But we managed to raise a little hell together. You were my friend. We both suffered from the same addition. The last time I saw you was when Lorrie picked you up from Broadway. lol We had hit every club. She called me an asshole. lol Damn Bro I didn' t drag you. Anyway. I' m out of the business. 35 years was enough. Married 45 years to the same women . miss you
a friend of mine loves to tell the story of keith whitley and ricky skaggs digging a ditch for her grandmother... RIP keith.. awesome music is forever. :)
i loved keiths music but home comming 63 because he looked so happy.although he passed on a long time ago i can still remember that day so clearly,and how i felt.god bless you and hold you in his heart always.I know I will.your friend and fan Clarence
I was 13 when Keith died. I listened to him then and loved it. Now I'm 33 and I am enjoying Sing his songs in my band. I plan on doing his song for a long time. If I ever made big I would be looking at remaking " I'm Over You".
This is one of my favorite songs! I never used to like him, but my mom listened to him all the time, and when she played his cd " Greatest Hits", i loved it right away. Keith was one of the best singers of all time. In all my 16 years, ive never heard anybody who can beat out keiths vocal abilities. He's amazing. Sure other country singers are great too! But keith just has that voice that everyone wants to listen to again and again
I was only 5 when he died but I remember when I was little I carried a cassette tape of his around with me everywhere I went. My name is Amy and I always would pretend that Miami, My Amy was about me.
i love this song...this is the one artist me and my grandmother can listen to...we listened to the greatest hits tape over and over for a 14 hour trip lol..we we're both singing along...i must say its one of my favorite memories with her :) thank you so much for posting it
This is one of my favorite, most beautiful album covers. Keith is beautiful, both in voice and to look at. I love the picture on this cover. I miss phone booths, and especially phone booths by the ocean. You don't see them any more. Like Keith, they are a part of the past, but the memory of both will live on. Keith was so beautiful and I will miss him forever.
I run into people very often that have met Keith Whitley at points in their lives. Our conversations always are about his influential style, thoughts of what might have been, and the legacy that he left. However, never do I walk away from the conversation and have not learned something new about the man Keith was.... That, my friends, is his legacy. From Biloxi, MS
I grew up listening to Keith Whitley with my ole Man and my Bro. We have been out fishing in the middle of a lake and all three started harmony on this very song. Keith Whitley is one of a kind and a legend in my opinion.
4 dislikes? hes like the best ever,4 people didnt have a homecoming date like keith
