Thanks, for this video! During the 80's and early 90's I saw Gene 20-25 times. This is my all time favorite of his. There are few singers who could ever compare to him. It's not just his great voice, but also his passion for singing.
Gene is the greatest, What a voice, He deserves to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, without doubt. Come on CMA, what are you waiting for?
Let me tell the people there is no better country music to me is the oldies 50's 60's 70's 80's and 90's and you know I was born in the early 60's but I love it and i can't express myself enough abount the country music that grew up with
Gene Watson truly sings country with such passion. The new people coming along today can't even hold a candle to him. This is a great song.Thank you for sharing his music. 10**********'s and Thumbs Up!!!
This brings back such great memories from the 80's for me. My girlfriend and I would sing this to each other all the time. Gene Watson is one of the all time great ballad singers that ever was or will be.
I am upset as hell!!!!! this man's voice is 1 of the all time best..he brought us so many great songs and to think he only had 1 number 1 hit and never voted into the hall of fame... shame on you hall of fame...thanks gene for so many great memories
@46catman My favorite TV show. I look forward to seeing it every week. AND my son and I have bought all the dvds. And I think we are getting ready to order the 2011 ones. They will be out in January 2011. We have played each one over and over.
if , you like this song . then you owe it to yourself to get directv so you can watch Country Family Reunion . this and many more are on RFDTV on fridays at 7pm central .
you got that right . No singer today is heard 10 or even 20 years later . but , gene watson is . I watch country family reunion on RFDTV . all the stars we grew up with are all on one stage . sharing stories and good country music the way it was ment to be heard .
@46catman I never tire of listening to all these people on Family Reunion. We have all the dvds and watch one every few evenings. I really found Gene Watson thru these and now can't get enough of listening to him. I have bought the dvd that this is on, and really like it. I wish there were more of them.
Anyone know the date and location of this concert? I this would be my choice for my favorite concert ever to attend. Gene is one of the few singers who sounds as good live as he does on an album. At his very best here.
I also Like Gene after Conway,I love this song I use to listen to it all the time sometimes it use to be so true but a person just keep going.thank you Mark once again.
I have to boot this up. On stock message boards, when something gets buried but is too good to miss, someone "boots" it back to the top. These comments are old so I'll re-send; same thing.
I love Gene Watson he is my very Favorite singer, the one thing in my life besides my kids being born that is meaningful to me is taking my mother and motherinlaw ane wife to see Gene before they passed away........ one of the best nights of our lives Gene was opening for Randy travis right when Randy was first a huge star but Gene shined that night
@BoyPrairie I think you are right......it was a great night and i remember my mom was so excited she almost peed her pants......I miss those girls alot but we sure had a great time that night
I don't think anyone can say Gene isn't handsome, especially if they ever saw him in person. He is a very rugged good looking man and not just on the outside. He's "beautiful" if you can say that about a man, INSIDE AND OUT...Fantastic song
Are you serious, do you really think he's not good looking? I disagree, I think he's attractive from the inside which makes him look very handsome on the outside!
Thanks Mark for sending this to me, it's fab ! :-)
ramey58, what WOULD be even better than this, lol, would be sitting and watching Gene "live"... This is a great song from Gene, typical "love and lamenting" cry in your beer song, and Great steel in it too... talk about great steel guitar players... you should check out Mike Johnson from Bill Anderson's Po Folks band, had been Bill's steel player for MANY MANY years, doing other things now...
LOL, yeah I do love to watch Gene play with his mike, and also love to watch when he takes his "bow" when he goes after them high notes, is signature to him, but cute... lol. What a POWERFUL voice from such a little guy... WOW!
AGAIN, what a voice! Gene has an awesome band too... Does anyone know if he STILL has Tony Booth and Chris "Tiny" Olsen with him today? I've seen Gene many times over the years and he IS one of my Top Ten favorite of the male country singers... I love BOTH oldschool and new country, but gotta tell ya', THIS IS "country music" at its VERY BEST here, Gene is a timeless classic.
Gene just keeps on getting better and better - if that's possible. What a fabulous voice and I never tire of listening to him. I really do like this song. It's so enjoyable to see Gene doing his live shows and see how the audience loves him. His band sounds great. Thanks Mark for this link. Thank you for posting another gem GWS. - Paula
Gene's voice still keeps getting stronger & more beautiful!
