This is a great song! How happy I am that I am able to listen to Vern Gosdin's music even after his death! I hope that such music will be there for the younger generation.
If the grief in this song doesn't rip your heart apart, check to see if it's beating. Can't remember the first time I heard this - could it be 15 years ago? - and I still feel the pain of these words every time I give it another listen. Great song, great singer. Thanks for sharing.
Vern Gosden IS true country music and always will be...he had a simple heartfelt and to the point delivery that made his music so distinguishable from anybody else...he is a country legend and deserves the spot he obtained as a country music pioneer..."agreed" @ syphon19731...Im only 33 but I listened to this music and others like him all my life...I listen to rock, country even rap and alot more, Im a very musically diverse person and this is STILL always welcome in my playlists...
class act this guy..we saw him Richmond virginia at the mosque..sat right of front of the man and guitar on a bar stool..felt like he sang every song to us like we were the only ones there..we seen a lot of performer before and a lot since nothings ever came close to the raw emotion and sincerity in his performance..also i think he preferred being a little under the radar of popularity..i think maybe he enjoyed being able to play smaller venues..
i loved Vern Gosdin and didnt even know he had died til months afterwards, never saw anything in paper on on tv about his death....but he never got the attention he so deserved in the music world, he had one of the greatest voices in country music and he was overlooked...i did get to see him once in concert...i loved you Vern and will never forget you.
Nobody sang a "crying in your beer" song better than Vern. His nickname, "The Voice," is accurate because he has a very distinct sounding voice that is instantly recognizable. I miss him, but at least we have his old recordings.
omg ... i didn't know vern gosdin had passed away , i was in mexico on vacation , i really loved all his songs , and threw his songs i learned alot about living , R.I.P vern , the country music beginners and old musicians will miss u alot , and all your fans ,,,, i'll give my heart to you for all your songs you gave us in life ,,, i'll miss you alot , may god have you in heaven , there you can sing those songs ,,,,,, my respects i will never ,,,ever forget you
Most of us will die and leave nothing behind except a few dollars and some memories. A picture or two and maybe a citation for picking up trash on the road or not missing church. What ever.. I wish I could leave something like this man left. What a gift he has left us and as long as people play and sing his music he will never die. The "Voice". Rest in Peace, sir.
Now,because you addressed me by by 'internet name'...caught my attention... I am going to be totally honest with you and say that I had never heard of Vern until a year or so ago. I am an 'Aussie' (Downunder). I am a Musician,playing clubs etc................and not what you would class as a 'Country Fan'.However, I am fast changing my taste.
Vern was a great singer.He sure could sing them good ole tearjerker songs.All the good singers are leaving us,and they can never be replaced.We sure will miss you,Vern.
Vern is one of the Greats in Country music, I went see him , Conway Twitty and George Jones in one concert all together, dat had to be the best concert Ive been to.Well Conway and Vern are gone, and in the words of George Jones who gonna fill their shoes? RIP
So sad to hear 'bout losin this awesome artist & person. This song is a classic..so easy to listen to. Godspeed Vern. Now the heavens are filled with beautiful music from such a talented singer.
Vern always had a special way of putting out words on his songs. A great one of many of his. I could listen to this one many times over. Real country not heard enough today.
