  • WOW!How great was he here! The gray headed woman that stands at the end was his mother. She died within a year after his death.

  • CHILLS!

    

  • @Airbornbuckeye I AGREE!!!!! this modern day bullshit they try to call country will never compare to music like Conway! It's sad.. country has fallen to hell...

  • How he worked his songs shows how much of a great entertainer he was. Conway is & still the best ever! Sadly missed but not forgotten' all his music is played here.

    A Die Hard Conway Twitty Fan From NE PA.

    Thanks 4 all the memories & music posted here.

  • Conway has always been my favorite country artist. This song especially holds hurtful memories even today because of what happened with my first marrige and in loosing her I also lost my first two sons. They will never know the love I feel for them and this song always reminds me of that.

  • Nobody felt a song like Conway did.. no singer makes me feel the way he makes me feel.. Wished I could have met him...

  • @57scissors Conway was my moms fav. When I was young i saw Conway in concert at our county fair. One of the best memories i have of my mom.

  • I GREW UP LISTENING TO CONWAYS MUSIC, THIS SONG INCLUDED!!! NEVER WOULD I HAVE THOUGHT IN A MILLION YEARS THAT IT WOULD LATER APPLY TO MY OWN LIFE!!! I REMEMBER THINKING HOW SAD THIS SONG WAS AND HOW MUCH IT WOULD HURT TO EXPERIENCE SOMETHING LIKE THIS.....NOW I KNOW...

  • I WAS AT THIS CMA AWARDS SHOW!!!!!!

  • ATTENTION. ALL SO CALLED TODAY'S COUNTRY ARTIST, 99 PERCENT OF TODAY'S ARTIST ARE NOT TRUE COUNTRY,,,,,NOW THIS TRUE 100 PERCENT COUNTRY, CONWAY TWITTY, GEORGE JONES/STRAIT, RANDY TRAVIS, WAYON , MEL STREET, DON WILLIAMS, PORTER WAGNOR, TAMMY WYNETTE, LORRETA, BARBRA MANDELA, I THINK THAT THE OLD TRUE ARTIST SHOULD START THE OWN NEW OPRY HOUSE, I BET THEY WILL CLEAN OUT THE OLD ORPY HOUSE .

  • Comment removed

  • Talk about feeling your music... He made it so that when He began to sing, not only did you stop and listen, but you began wondering if he was actually talking to or about you. This is true country! This is how country should be done!

  • @LorieSawyerDavis well said

  • he had a way of getting deep in your thoughts.....huh

  • i grew up listening to conway no one did it better

  • we r only clay moddled after the one and only mold........Think and accept......that life is about choices.....and we have the knowledge......to know the correct answer....

  • all I can say.......from a true south carloina southern girl...is the coldchills I feel from this song is priceless

  • From the song to the performace, both are impecable, it makes me so proud to show this to ppl. This is who everyone else tries to measure up to. I agree with paycheck18901 about when Conway was around he was definetly in charge!

  • if the feeling's gone / Words won't stop you anyway

  • Dear young country music artists of today: You don't need to sing about gittin 'er dun on the tractor, winnin' over the farmers daughter, and grammas biscuits and gravy like you're some kind of redneckin machine in order to make good songs. Thank you.

  • Conway Twitty had the best vocal range of any country music singer ever to live.

  • I love him... Would have loved to seen him perform... xo

  • i really like anything from conway but this song says alot

  • Very sad

  • Conway : A song's best friend.

  • What a soulful singer!Past relashionships are a bitch, but man do they make a great song!The so called country singers of today could learn from the masters of the past!BE IN IT FOR THE MUSIC AND NOT FOR THE MONEY!Country music lost a great star in 1993.Sleep well Conway you have earned your rest!

  • When we all realize that life gives and takes, we can find comfort in accepting it's true meaning. We own no one. Yours may be anothers eventually. Enjoy that moment and love them today and expect you will be holding another later in life. SAD but very true!

  • my wife left me 5 months ago.this song is how it all unfolded for me.miss you babe,but you truly dont love me no more.

  • I refuse to listen to the radio anymore until they put music like this back on for us to listen to!!!! There is no COUNTRY MUSIC on the radio anymore!!! I miss you Conway!!! R.I.P.

  • @toni511000 I thought it was me but country is no where to be found on the radio these days.

  • Never really got the respect and awards that he deserved... He was truly one of the smoothest that Country Music has ever had to sing...

  • Oh Condway how I miss you! You can never be replaced!

  • This song is Conway Titties!

  • As an entertainer, I was introduced to Mr Twitty by a general manager of a radio station in Augusta, Ga. Mr Casey Jenkins of WGUS Radio. Wonderful man. Two years later, opened 6 concert shows of Mr Twitty' s. Taught me alot. Did I achieve his success? LOL, no way. But I did manage 6 number 1' s and a couple of top 10' s. Who I am doesn t matter. I 'm done. No legend. Mr Jenkins is the story. What a talent and a Gentleman. Polite to everyone.

  • One of the greatest!! So many of his songs still bring tears to my eyes. He had such a unique voice.

  • I sing this song alot in kareoke, usually after Im done people will tell me I do the song justice. To that I always reply, "Thankyou, but I will never be able to do that song the justice that it and him both deserve."

    Haha, also I usually get chill bumps every time I sing it too.

    This man was truly a legend, one of the best I know I'll ever see. I will be dead and gone LONG before his name and music is ever forgotten.

  • I love how he acknowledges the crowd at 1:11 while singing by simply raising his fingers from the mic. Such a classy guy and an incredible voice. No auto tune needed for this guy.

  • @pudman33 I noticed that,too.

  • I seen Conway in one of the last public performances he made, just 2 months before he went to be with our Lord....it's so hard to decide which of his songs was my fave, because everyone of his songs were Epic, and there is not just one!! I miss that man!!

  • Conway was real country, this stuff now is bullshit. Him an Keith Whitley, Randy Travis, Vern, ect......that was the time, this stuff now is shit. 

  • @airbornbuckeye Brad Paisley is good country.

  • @airbornbuckeye yeah and this guy at my school said all country is gay or anything thats not jazz rock etc

  • @airbornbuckeye I sure miss Conway, country misic is all about money now.

  • One of the GREATEST Country songs EVER!!!!!

  • @gramcracker0413. Its not that easy when you've been through a lot..

  • OMG my sister was right my 1st ex-husband does look like CONWAY

  • Man I wish woman only new a mans heart and intentions..

  • @gunmanbryan243 dont know it if yall dont tell it!

  • OK now time to cry when it's over it;s over but it hurts the same i give all but not enough you said i do and i did till the end of time now i hurt more than you will ever fell and i hope you never do why i love you for all time you have my heart

  • I love Conway Twitty--nobody sings a song with such heart! RIP you are dearly missed!

  • There's no more Music like that anymore. We lost a Great Man in Conway Elvis and Johnny. I just wish we would have one more Day. With them!!!

  • Wannabees, you just received a lesson. Figure it out.

  • Will never fail to make me cry Terry...ever..G,M.

  • "thanks to everyone who took this stage tonight, but now, please be seated so i can remind everybody who's in charge..."

  • @paycheck18901 You ain't the boss of me!! - LOL

  • my dad loved conway when I hear him it makes me think of my dad RIP dad

    

  • @antone35 Cool story, bro.

  • I don't like country music, but Conway Twitty is ACTUAL country. You hear all of these country songs today pretty much explaining what they did that day. "I get my woman, go drink some beer have a good time." Ok, that is just not real country music.

  • damn he can belt out the tunes, ups if you love conway after the family guy "madness" lol, cuz ill give ups to that, hey at least I can say theres someone in country music I can say i like

  • Conway rules

  • conway is the most romantic singer alive.... the growl in his voice has got to be the sexiest ever........

  • @partydoll714 ....Although I appreciate your comment...but...Conway left us a long time ago....Yes...he was one of the best....:)

  • this could be the best live vocal performance ever

  • Great song -- one of his best, imo. Thank you for posting.

  • damn straight

  • 3 dislikes? id like to beat 3 peoples ass

  • @way2easy2love I got your back

  • GREAT man and great song. We visited Twitty City in the 80s. It was a beautiful and happy place. Too bad Dee, his third wife, did not realize it was "CONWAY'S Graceland"..........what a shame and great loss for his fans! At least TBN has kept Conway's memory alive and his fans can visit his home. Cathy T.

  • @outbackredd Yes, mine as well. Rent 22in dubs at $ 200 a week and put them on a $1000 hoop de. Sad. Not to get political but, these same people then take their hard earned EBT cards, (food stamps, rent subsidies, power and water payment subsidies, free 100 minute government cell phones and medi care. and then they go about their daily lives. At our expense. Then think that they are entitled to more. Just plain pitiful. Sorry for the rant. But truth is truth.

  • Mr Jenkins, your were and or the man. Your legacy will never be eclipsed. George Straight is a close second, but, you re the man. Now let s talk about Blake Shelton" s version. I know you re in Heaven smiling. He did you proud. He gives you the credit. just thankful to sing your song. LOL I stop at Red lights and turn the volume up to drown out the Hip Hop BS. Makes them mad. Mines in the stereo. Their money is in the WHEELS . Sorry, bad remark. But True.

  • For grandma :'( rip

  • Saddest song I've ever heard,

  • A great song..a guy called Terry Harris did a cover of this and it was brilliant..but it's vanished off youtube. G.M. London

  • 3 people are still waiting for love to change their mind.

  • I love Conway... Im 45, and I have been a fan for probably 30 years. It just dont get no better than this voice. The suggestive nature of his songs has made women love him for decades. And I will continue to love his music.

  • one of the best songs ever

  • Two Thumbs Up!!

  • I have to agree with most posts on here. Blake Shelton did a good job remaking this song but the simplest way to put it is that there's only one Conway Twitty.

  • I have a huge man crush on blake shelton, but nobody does Conway Twitty better than Conway

  • d`amn!!!!!!

  • Now , Then , Away's Conway You Are So Loved And Missed

  • He gives me chills.

  • Miss ya Conway!!

  • This is a true man of country. Amazing artist, when Conway past away country was never the same. A great legend lost, but he still lives on. I grew up on Conway, and I am 39 now and I still listen to him. When my daughter was born 19 yrs. ago I played Conway everyday for her, and still today she listens to his songs, and remembers me playing them to her.

  • Used to sit on this man's knee every sunday while they practiced to play!

  • I agree with Leftlegged1.This stuff we get now is no more than pop with a fake twang

  • Conway was the best!

  • country music done right.........

  • conway is a legend never to be topped

  • Harold Llyod Jenkins (aka. Conway Twitty, The Gowler, The Highpriest of Country Music) When he left us, country music was never the same, nor will it be again. I cried when he died, just as I did when Elvis died. Sometimes I still do. Their music was and is a part of me! There must be an awesome show in heaven tonight!!!

    God Bless you both!

  • Blake does this song well,but there isnt anyone out there today that could even hold Conway's coat as far as real country..This crap we have today is nothing but 'pop'

  • @outbackredd Hell yeah

  • What are all these Family Guy references? Conway was featured on FG? I need to see that. It better have been in a positive way.

    

  • @silverowlsoaring He's been on there about 4 times. Don't worry...Seth MacFarlane is apparently a big Conway fan so I don't find his use of him on the show offensive to Conway fans.

  • god i wanna kill this son of a bi*ch

  • @godoflustandenvy Is it because he's a better singer than you are?

  • Will i see there three need a BELLTONE!!!!

  • why does it seem conway twitty has never gotten the respect he deserves? hes gotta be in the top 5 best country music artists ever. right next to george jones. all you hear is johnny cash this and johnny cash that. what really sucks is this is what we used to have on the radio but now all we get are metro sexual posers. thanks a lot nashville, you sold your soul for pop. oh yeah folks check out adam hood, stoney larue, randy rogers, wade bowen, townes van zandt, real music

  • @wheelmanstan The real fans know, to hell with the radio! Now he is a star among the stars, and you can't go any higher than that!

  • good ol' Conway : )

  • he puts soooo much more passion and emotion in this song, no one can do it better, even tho i like Blake.....

  • Was able to see his live peformance in Tupelo Ms 92 or 94, One of The greatest , Brings a tear too the eyes.

  • Conway passed away 18 years ago today .... makes me feel like an old man at 35 ... RIP Conway

  • I love him and miss him terribly! Today marks the day he left this world 18 years ago! A day I will never forget!

    I MISS YOU CONWAY!!

  • Sent chills down my spine. 

  • I love and miss Conway and his great voice.

  • Ups if you loved conway before the madness of family guy

  • @SlumberCloud Oh hell yeah

  • @SlumberCloud y did they put him on there it just seem to be off from what they would hav

  • @SlumberCloud He's Daddy was a big fan of Conway. He watch Hee Haw with he's Father. I thank him for doing that My kid's Love Conway because of Family Guy. Conway will live on for the young people to here.

  • @SlumberCloud shut up!

  • This man can fucking sing... so emotional and powerful

  • and thats how its done!!!!!!...Trickie

  • Ein eher schwaches Lied!

  • A larger than life super star at his best.

  • excellent... now i love blake shelton singing this one, but c'mon ya'll no-one does it like Conway Twitty. it doesn't get any better than this. Lord I miss him...

  • @missy67678 you know it

  • @missy67678  very true!

  • @missy67678

    I didn't realize that Blakes was a cover...I like 'em both!

  • class act

  • There aint much better than Conway.

  • Conway Twitty was and stilll is the best there is. After all these years, he's my favorite. He sang about love, sex and heartache with class and style. Not a bunch of filth.

  • conway and hank sr., jr., an III are the all time country gods!!!!

  • The King of romance...Mr. Conway Twitty...if I ever wanted to get my date in the mood, I'd simply put a cassette tape of him in... Nature took it from there...even today, it still works on my date, which is now, my wife....thanks Conway...this ole boy will never forget you...

  • i...i love ittttttttttttttttttttttt so gooood i wish he would still be alive

  • i...i love ittttttttttttttttttttttt so gooood

  • I saw this man on many occasions and there has Never been another entertainer that cared so much about getting it right- incredible is what I think and miss his music so much- what a great person he was and so loyal to the fans- young artists should learn from him!!!

  • I miss Conway

    

  • This is my favorite song.

    . I need to learn this song on guitar

  • this was my moms hero. she cried so much when he passed. rip conway ur the best

  • What a great song, and he sang the heck out of it! It would be such an honor to go to his show if he was still alive.

  • He was the greatest. there will never ever be another great man like him.Imet him. He was very nice. down too earth.

  • only the devil and his anti christ could have clicked the two dislikes to this masters vocal performance of a perfect song.

  • My friend just told me that Justin bieber got his hairstyle from this man...I didn't know who he was so I looked him up...WTF?!?

  • Conway was one of a kind. I grew up in the 60's and 70's and had to listen to my dad's country music. I preferred rock n roll bands like the Eagles, ZZ Top and Doobie Brothers. Now in my 50's I find myself listening to Conway, George, Tammy and Loretta. You can't beat classic country music for songs from the heart.......

  • Fuggin A Conway Twitty!!!! I rule the trailer court with a battle ax! On you're fucking knees, fuck face! Praise be to Conway Twitty!!!! Woot woot!@!! Own my own mobile home!!!

  • All the greats are either getting up in years or passing on. And there's no one currently that can replace them. Rest in piece Conway.

  • I was there! I will always love Conway's Music..always

  • Conway is the only singer that could rival Elvis on pure emotion in a song.

  • Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Conway Twitty!

  • wow! beuatiful and sad song...thnks for sharing his songs./

  • This man here is the GREATEST singer of music.. period. it doesnt matter if its country or not.. No one is as good as Conway..

  • un fn believable, the Lord must be having an amazing time listening to Conway

  • Pure emotion, awesome voice!

  • I grew up in a working class town in Maine, did grunt work with my friends fathers and remember sitting in pick-ups in the early morning, or coffee breaks with powdered donuts in the haze of marlboros or camels, and country music playing on the AM radio. Years go by, then I see a clip of Twitty from the early 70s on Family Guy and it brought back that time so clearly I downloaded as much Conway as I could find and he's one of my favorites now. I am thankful for having him in my memories.

  • ladies and gentlemen... Mr. Conway Twitty

  • 1 person must have gotten told goodbye!

  • Wonderful song but i like Blake's version a lot better

  • @MrWes1988 Well sir I must say that you are not a true fan of country music....let me guess, you also think Garth Brooks is better than George Jones?? Blake is fine, nothing wrong with him but he will never amount to a pimple on Conway's left a$s cheek. No offense meant.....you stated your opinion and I stated mine!!!

  • What a master of the song...

  • One of the things I like about Conway is how his songs speak to real life situations and complex issues and emotions, but yet are so simple, in a good way. :)

    God Bless ~Amy

  • I was the stupid one who destroyed the one true love i had. thats why this song speaks to me cause i would rather die then see her hurt. if i ever got the chance for one last chance i'd take it. but it would never happen

  • This is a real 'AMERICAN IDOL'

  • hell yeah i like IT 

  • Love this song! He's got such a strong, beautiful voice and sings it with so much passion! We lost a great one when he passed.

  • Conway is 1 of my favorites of all times

  • I like Blake Shelton, But nobody, NOBODY beats Conway..Conway's version gets my thumbs up

  • Yes! is the best performance ever. But we don't can reclaim of Blake Shelton's version. He's a great artist and made a beautiful work with this music. It's fact, right?

  • @calvinc1975 Sad thing is that won't happen... Everything mainstream is junk rock sounding music, Maybe one day though.

  • @justinge999 True, but there are a few artist who are a little more traditional on mainstream radio lately, like Sunny Sweeney. :) But yeah, Nashville just churns out crap, country sounds more rock than rock these days! lol

    God Bless ~Amy

  • CONWAY AND LORETTA BABY, ALL TIME BEST EVER!

  • blake shelton has nothing on him with this song

  • nothin like some CONWAY...so blessed to have seen him 3 times...love you conway R.I.P.

  • If there ever was a person that could make you actully feel the raw emotion in a song.................Harold Jenkins aka Conway Twitty Miss you

  • This song above all others gives me instant chills.. There is no other song that he sings that is this powerful! obviously singing from a personal experience and that to me is the best of the best in all music! He is deeply missed!!

  • There's always that one son-of-a-bitch that dislikes a video just because...

  • @Aircraftkiller guess thats just the nature of youtube. I bet somebody could make a video just saying hey hows everybody doin and it would get dis liked

  • I CAN HEAR PERSONAL PAIN IN THIS PERFORMANCE.

    GREAT JOB
