just think of all the talented singers that may not have been discovered simply because they are the best looking or coolest. thanks to george i know that god has a way to hide his best treasure.

I have to agree with some that Randy does this better but in no way does the possum hurt this at all. George is great and will always be at the top of country music!!!!
Wow, George sings this with so much passion. It's better then Randy Travis hands down. Elvis did a lot of songs better then the original artist, so can Possum.

George Jones is the all time, ultimate, perfect, amazing country music singer. Saw him in 1985, will never forget it. What we need today in country music is MORE COUNTRY. MORE GEORGE JONES. Country music is being RUINED by fakes.
@ricardofolive randy made it famous though. he first gave the song its real soul. when a great song is written the writer cant always make it come alive. randy made it come alive. georges version is also good and to me he is the greatest, though i personally think randy's take does it the most justice
George's voice has gotten kinda weak in the last year or so. I worry about him. My Mama's favorite singer is the Possum. "On the Other Hand," my favorite is Bocephus. Mama and I have fun discussions on who is the best. They are the top 2 ever. Conway comes in a very close 3rd.
I read somewhere that this song was written for George, and he passed on it and Randy did it later. They're bot great singers, the newer stuff just doesn't compare to this in my opinion.
This man is a one of a kind.Think about it...he's been recording hits for 55 years.And as far as "Who's gonna fill his shoes"?? Nobody filled Conway's shoes,nobody filled Vern's shoes,and sure as hell nobody gonna fill George's.He's a national treasure!!
He is pushin 80 guys sheesh! We will all be lucky if we can still talk by then. I hope George sings until he leaves this world. As long as he is singing I will be listening.
@blueovaltrucker Amen to that brother He sings who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes but I want to know who is gonna fill his shoes. I don't know of any body out there singin "country music" today that even comes close.
@crack7head I have to agree I love George Jones I mean after all he is the king of Country but I truly think Randy Travis did this song much more justice
both are awesome singers. They shouldn't cover each other's songs. I wouldn't want to hear Randy sing " He stopped loving her today". He'd do a fine job, but it wouldn;t be the same. I'll bet Randy was flattered that George would cover Randy's song.
lol bottom line George is the Possum for a reason that means he's better than any country singer EVER other than Hank check your album sales before you comment on who is vocally better at a song besides Randy did not write this song so it is not his
This is such an excellent song and I love hearing George's take on it. His voice is just so soothing. But of course it's Randy's song and in my eyes no one will be able to do it quite as well as him.
George always puts so much emotion into all of his songs and this winning song is a great example. I don't think any singer will ever compare with him altho the other greats are almost neck and neck with him - Gene Watson, Ray Price and Alan Jackson. I always put Hank Williams on a pedestal all by himself. Thank you for posting. -Paula
we Allways said we would be together and you ,You was reminded and now we cant be so maybe youll see my angre my pain my deseption you chose the other hand when you told me it would be us
As much as I love George,,I must agree with Rufless,,to me this is Randy's song,, Just as the almighty Johnny Cash's version of He Stopped Loving Her,,, doesnt cast a shadow on George's version. Maybe its just what you get used to hearing,,,
George Jones is one of the best singers

First of George is not in his prime here and at an older age should stick to new material.
When he was younger, had this song been out, he could have done WAY better than he does here.
Randy Nails tis song, it's one of his signatures.
I'm sure George Die AHrds wouldn't want to hear Randy singing The Grand Tour.
Take a listen to a song Randy wrote and sang called Reason I Cheat.
