I wasn't blessed to meet Keith in person, but through a close friend of Keith's brother Dwight (and mother Faye) was a guest to Sandy Hook in the early 90's. Keith will always be MY benchmark of Tenor vocalists in both Country and Bluegrass. I truly wish I had been able to sing a little harmony with him and pick a few tunes while he was here on this journey of life. I cherish an autographed ticket from Keith's Homecoming Concert (Thx Harley) and my pics of Billie R.w/ Dwight & the Panhead- RIP
One Of My All Time Favorite Singers. What Great Lyrics and Delivery On A True Account of Love Gone Wrong. One of the best country voices of our time. What a great loss for us. Thanks for posting.

one of the best songs of all times If Keith had lived longer maybe he could have influenced more young country singers and maybe country wouldnt be this crap we have today
Keith was unquestionably the best male singer of any genre. He has such great control of his voice, that anyone who has sung, really sung, could hear the way he could do things with his voice none of us will ever do. Keith was a symbol to us all. He showed us that being the best, sometimes still isn't enough. What he taught us with his death was simple. Love each other, love with deepness, and never take for granted the love you have. Keith, we love you too.
im 12 and from greenup, ky and ive been raised up on old country music, i wish he was still aroung the world needs his voice so people will know what real country is. R.I.P

It makes me think of my first wife, back when we were young and happy. Way before she "got stupid" and ran off. It is bitter sweet, good memories,and I will never forget.
this is beautiful and when you lose someone these things cross your mind you cant live in the past no doubt but memories are a most beautiful gift we have all been given god bless all those that have passed
I had the priviledge of jaming with Keith at a bluegrass festival, when he was with Ralph Stanley. I had never or never expect to again hear a voice like his. If you ask whats the definition of a country music singer and the answer doesn't say Keith Whitley, then you not looking at the right dictionary. If you can listen to I Never Go Around Mirrors and not have chills go all over you, then you dont like country music. Sadly we will never know the wonderful music we lost when we lost him.
Me 2 I will never 4get that day my high school boyfriend came over early that mornin when he heard and woke me up I thought he was lying I just would not believe him..
dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins
Keith was one of the nicest people I've ever had the privilege of knowing. I knew him during his days playing with Dr. Ralph Stanley & The Clinch Mountain Boys. Gosh, he was just a super individual...and talented beyond all description. I remember hearing about his death on the radio and it was truly as heartbreaking as losing one of my own family members. What a tragic loss to country and bluegrass music.
i live about 2 minutes from where most of this video was recorded...things still look the same as they did then...i really like his singing,he had an awesome voice.
Awesome tribute!! That has to be his mom and brother. I got chills watching the bikes roll into his resting place...tears followed. I know he is singing with the angels.Oh, what a reunion that will be...Heaven has some great singers waiting for us!!
jessedenny43 Kieth, I rode with you the year after you left us, and your music rides on forever in my heart. FEEL THE MUSIC, BE THE MUSIC. There is no replacement for Kieth Whitley
OMG this was so amazing to see that was such a wonderful tribute to Keith you waylon are the man for putting this up for everyone to see. Tears literally tears after watching this vid all i can say is you done Keith proud. Long live the legacy of the Legend Keith Whitley
