Lorrie Morgan - If You Came Back From Heaven (10 of 10)

[evanbradow]

I remember the day Kieth Whitley died. The world lost an incredible singer/songwriter. It wasn't Lori's fault that he died though. Kieth knew She was using him for a stepping stone. He should have dumped her when he realized it instead of trying to drink away the pain.

Her reaction to his death sure seemed in bad taste in my opinion. And when She capitalized on his death by writing this song, well....people need money to survive and I guess the best thing I can say is Lori is a survivor.

I loved Keith and his music! And like some of you here, I blame Lorrie for his death! But she is a good singer in her own right! After Keith died, she married some unknown guy, then she was involved with Troy Aikman of Dallas Cowboys fame! then she went on to Sammy! lol she can't keep a good man when she finds one! something wrong with that scenerio!

[ThePurecountrygal]

Keith Whitley was definately one of the best singers of all time, love everything he ever recorded, country & bluegrass. I have always really liked Lorrie's music as well, great voice and she can sing with anybody and do a super job. As for her private life why doesn't everybody just mind their own business and not comment on what they no nothing about. The tabloids have nothing on you but they are paid to be vicious. Really what's it to you all?

[bcbackstrom]

Keith was the man... too bad Lorrie didn't recognize it before....

[sonyahiter]

No one should be judging her. May u need to walk in her shoes

[rolandrog]

Drama, drama, drama. Put the drama back in the bottle and cork it up. Drama king, drama queen, so much drama should be obscene. Driving drama down the darn drama dam. drama mama driving fast. got so much drama, drama's gonna last.

[onelazydaizy]

I think all of you, nay-sayers, are full of hate & bitterness! Lorri & Keith loved each other completely & the simple fact is, that if Keith hasn't been an chronic alcoholic & then drank himself to death, Lorri would still be with him & all those husbands that followed, would have used someone else, to further their own failing careers. Her music & voice is a gift from heaven. If YOU don't like her, don't listen to her. But stop trying to make other feel as you do. You're wasting your time, a-hs

[sonyahiter]

TO MY BABY SISTER, TONI LYNN..............9-29-2000

WE ALL MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU!!!

SEE YOU SOON

[onelazydaizy]

@sonyahiter ...I'm sorry for your loss....

[swootten]

Puh-fuckin-leeeze! I dont doubt that she loved him somewhat once. But she knew he was in trouble, was not there to save him, and used his death to further her own career (successfully, I might add). I dont think she is still crying for him today. And for those of you who want to compare her as an artist to him -- put the pipe down and get a friggin clue.

[hawaiianpunch0550]

Word is that she had an affair with Dwight Youkum and that is what did Keith in.

[mdgtrpckr]

Lorrie filed for bankruptcy 2 years ago; had to sell her 2006 Jetta and Keith's Vette to pay the bills. That bus could be damn near why. But dang, I just don't feel any compassion in her voice when she talks about Keith.

[theoxley]

@mdgtrpckr

Fifteen years ago she couldn't even talk about this....how long do you want her to greeve??

[mdgtrpckr]

@theoxley i guess we see Lorrie Morgan differently. From my experiences and perspective, I can't say that I've seen any true compassion in Lorrie from the moment Keith passed away to today. There are those close to her then and now who quietly hold her suspect, because there was way more to Keith's death than "acute alcohol poisoning". That's just a fact.

[peteykkk]

She is riding in a bad ass bus! Probably cost a couple of million! Lorrie, to me, is an incredible singer and has earned everything!

[jbrandiwine]

Lorrie has a finer voice than Keith ever had, truthfully.

[PhatFarm60]

no way.... Lorrie was a good singer, but Keith was one of the greatest of all time

[jbrandiwine]

With all due respect, that is your opinion, and thank goodness we all can find music that appeals to our own personal preferences. I enjoyed Keith also, Lorrie's voice is unique and wonderful. I would not consider K.W. one of the greats. Marty Robbins,absolutely, Merle, of course, and a few others as well. Of course, that would be MY opinion, to which I am as entitled as you would be to your own.

[onelazydaizy]

@PhatFarm60 ...Lorrie IS a good singer!...she isn't dead & she's still performing..!.

[gabbylove1982]

I feel for her, no one knows whats it like to date an alcoholic and how hard that is unless youve been there and then to lose him to the alcohol ive been there I too lost the love of my life to alcohol and its a feeling that last forever, so if you wanna judge her for that think about what that would be like first, imagine walking in those shoes.

[tricia6190]

@gabbylove1982 I also lost the love of my life to alcoholicism, my baby Johnny is so very missed !! I wish this hurt would go away but I know it won't !! TO all those who have loved and lost God Bless You All !!!

[TheCopperhound84]

@tricia6190 it wasnt alcholism lorrie morgan is a whore she cheated on keith whitley how many dumbasses beleive he died from drinkin it was both blame lorrie for kieth to drink away his pain hint TELL LORRIE I LOVE HER , IM GONNA HURT HER ON THE RADIO,DONT CLOSE YOUR EYES, AND I WONDER DO YOU THINK OF ME why are yall so stupid and blind keith whiltey god bless lorrie dont deserve you shes a cunt and shes with sammy kershaw thats the full truth it was on TNN 1 time

[APRIL62318]

@TheCopperhound84 and you know this how his own family said he had a problem before her! Keith had a disease and it toook him away from those who love him! Lorrie has not been the same since

[TheCopperhound84]

@APRIL62318 um BS it was said on TNN a while back that she cheated on him with her manager i understand he had a drinkin problem but its still Lorries fault listen to all his songs its about her she didnt deserve him thats the fact!!!!

[bnewsom81]

@TheCopperhound84 I love Keith Whitley music. Sad to see him die. But just so we can have clarity on the issues Keith only played a role in writing one of those songs, "Tell Lorrie i Love Her". All the rest of that music was written by other people. Also you put your comment up two months ago and she and Sammy have been split since 2007 it is now 2011. The fact that a news station reported cheating is not proof although very likely true, but if true Keith had other choices. LEAVE HER

[peachfoot]

@gabbylove1982 .....I agree. We've all seen Lorrie take a little too much heat over the manner in which she responded and carried on with such strength.  But you are right in that no one but God, Keith and Lorrie knows what she really had to deal with away from public eye. Lorrie is obviously a strong woman. She exudes the kind of strength that so reminds me of my Mother.....tender-hearted, loving, caring, etc., BUT......stone-cold sober-STRONG inside.

[latrishaerwin]

@gabbylove1982 , sorry to dissapoint you but, there are plenty of people who know what it is like dating or being married to an alcholic. I am one of those people.

[gabbylove1982]

@latrishaerwin I never said there wasnt plenty of people I said that only the people who do deal with that understand it. Which would include you and everyone else in that situation.

[dia33386]

LivingLegendsMusic: Ok, thnx for this- but it doesn't do justice to Lorrie's song & voice on "If You Came Back To Me"!

Guess I'm on the wrong YouTube site.

You don't give us Lorrie Morgan's "If You Came Back From Heaven"! The *most* amazing song & version *ever* for any & everyone who's lost their Love-of-their-Life!

[jdrc02]

Lorrie I lost my partner to Aids 14 yrs ago and every time I here this song It makes me think of him. thank you for sharing your thoughts with us,

[Crowrocker71]

Beautiful song Lorrie!

[bbudacious]

Thank you for that, because this reminds me of my mom. bb

[geena6]

A lovely, beautiful song. Lorrie & keith were a great couple. RIP Keith.

[Crowrocker71]

Absolutely!

[tammyks66]

My ass, she rode his coattails to fame and has been riding on his name ever since. Poor little widow Whitley. Notice how she returns to calling Keith the love of her life when she is between men?

[mdgtrpckr]

@tammyks66 bahahah. good catch ;)
