  • Luv vvvvv ittt

  • just the best. thanks for posting

  • This is simply great.

    Why can't we have more, much more like this?

    Thanks for posting.

  • this is music thank's willberscott

  • It just doesn't get any better than this. Vern was a gift from God! He is singing with the Angels in Heaven now and I can't wait to join them all!

  • Why has this kind of music disappeared?

  • great voice, outstanding harmony, what a tribute to real music, it sounds so simple, but takes great talent to produce such a feel good song

  • what a voice

  • This is a treasure!

  • No one sounds like the "Voice" . God has Vern singing lead and the "Voice" is warming up now for that big concert in the sky!

  • I ecall Vern going on stage when No Show Jones was MIA. George finally showed up and thought they were playing a tape of himself when In fact Vern was signing in his place and sounded just like him..

  • love and respect ...

    never forget -

  • Vern was very overlooked in his talents and never truly got the fame he truly deserved, if anyone should have been considered A LEGEND it should have been Vern, Vern had the kind of voice he could harmonize with the worst singer and make them sound good. RIP VERN you are missed

  • Thank you father God in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

  • alan jackson, is definitly coming close

  • Thanks to all the great fans for showing your appreciation.

    Vern dearly loved his fans. Hail to The Voice of Country Music.

  • i made the 100th like on this song

  • saw him at gilleys in pasadena, tx.----people all loved him

  • Gotta love it- one of the best voices ever created by the Master- You will so be missed but live forever in your Music!

  • vern,this is the first time iv'e heard you sing. i sure do love it,,rest in peace my friend.

  • vern,this is the first time iv'e heard you sing. i sure do love it

  • Vern was NOT 4 Sale and IF you wont sell your soul to the Parasites who run Nashville you will likely end up like Vern or Billy Joe Shaver or many of The Greats who have just settled for a LIVING instead of a "fortune" you cant take w/you when you go.. Randy Travis summed it up best w/ "I'm Goin Back to a Better Class of Looser" Randys gettin old and so are the few who still wont sell out...Willies no kid and when there gone "Whos Gona Fill Their Shoes"? Hard Times Produce Better men and music

  • DROVE ACROSS THE COUNTRY SEVERAL TIMES W HIS SONGS...FURTHER AWAY I GIT BETTER HE SOUNDED

  • I dont think the country music industry wants anyone that sings like Vern anymore. Its a shame too. He didnt have todays "look" that they want, and he actually sang country music. Not like todays so called country thats more like southern rock. And a lot of todays hits are what I call novelty songs. They are meant to have humor in them. Years ago, a few songs were that way but most were just country songs that told a story. Now there is junk like Hillbilly Bone and I Want to Check You for Tics.

  • we will never here great music like this no more on radio because of the all mighty dollar of nashville. or others like this like haggard,jones,jennings,or any of the great's and it's a shame when they sang a song it was with felling and not screaming guitar's in one word today's music is SHIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thanks to all the Fans for keeping the memory alive.

    Let's hear it for The Voice !!!

  • Will always be "The Voice."

  • Awesome what a talent and voice todays country is CRAP.

  • To be official, Wilbur, it hit #5 in Billboard, 8-27-83. God bless! RIP, brother Vern!

  • he sounds like randy travis

  • @youngcountrybariton1 Don't you mean that Randy Travis sounds a little like him? They both were blessed with beautiful voices that they honed to perfection, but Vern came along about twenty-five years ahead of Randy. I'd like to ask Randy if Vern was a conscious influence on his sound and style. Bet he was. I sure wish somebody would master it. I miss him. RIP Vern. You've left big empty boots to fill.

  • @Beauxciephais You should check out Ken Mellons on utube . He sounds a lot like Vern. better than anyone else, Rixhard

  • one of the best

    the voice

    love all his stuff

    he is dearly missed

  • Thanks so much for posting this so that The Voice lives on,

  • The harmony just gives me chills.

  • Great old tune! I had no idea Vern has passed.

    God bless you Vern. Rest in peace.

  • You simply don't hear this kind of music anymore the ones out there trying sing country music has no idea what it takes to sing this kind of music. "I miss it"!!!!

  • I had the pleasure of seeing this great singer in Roanoke, Va. - I believe in the 1980's - he was truly "The Voice" - Vern Gosdin - greatly missed.

  • Sweet good country music!!!!

  • You want country music? Just listen to this :)

  • the man of true voice

  • Best damn harnonizing I ever heard!

  • @mzoneida2u I HAVE EXPENDED ALL MY RESOURCES, & CAN'T FIND A VIDEO OF " YOU'RE HEADING RIGHT IN THE WRONG DIRECTION " IF ANY ONE HAS 1 OR FINDS 1 PLEASE SEND IT TO ME.

  • Vern Gosdin is truly 'The Voice' in every sense. He is missed by his legion of fans since he passed on. RIP, Sir.

  • Wilbur- Thanks so much for the gosdin songs. Between him and the Bobby Bare ones you put on you are the best poster on youtube. I think guys like Vern and Bobby and Ricky Van Shelton are head and shoulders above anything you can hear on these modern country stations. Thanks again pal

  • What a great song. It makes me get up and dance with such a good feeling. Vern is wonderful as always and the musicians backing him up are terrific. The tempo reminds me a little of some of our church gospel songs, which is a good thing. Thank you again Wilbur for posting this winner. - Paula (PaulinaRena).

  • Saw him in Richmond va. at the old Mosque theater...of course he was alot older than this pic. sat on a barstool and just sang..that voice... gives me a chill just recalling. thanks for the post

  • true song really wonderfull !

    Vern Gosdin way down deep say my s...............

  • None Better. "THE VOICE".

  • We still do Verns songs when we play. We play mostly old country because its real country.

  • Great Song, and I love Chip Young's thumbicking on this recording.

  • This song is great and Vern had some amazing voice.....RIP, brother....we will meet again...

  • Happy 75th B-Day to The Voice of Country Music.

    R.I.P. Vern Gosdin 8/5/1934  - 4/28/2009

  • I could be wrong, but I read (or heard) that it was Vern's brother. Love this song, thanks for posting!

  • Wow - what a great song and Vern does it so well. I love his voice and he makes any song sound better. He sure is good looking in his picture here. This song is great to do karaoke and I will always remember Vern each time I sing it. It's also fun to dance to. We will never forget this wonderful artist. R.I.P. Vern. Thanks so much for sharing this. - Paula

  • Howdy,

    Thanks for posting this song. It's on the new Box Set I just released titled 40 Years of The Voice.

    Be sure and check it out when you stop by and say Hi !

    Happy Christmas country music fans everywhere.

    The Voice

  • wilburscott, I wholeheartedly agree with you; country music will NEVER find another singer like Vern "the voice" Gosdin. The ones who call themselves "country" nowadays haven't got a clue as to what real country is. It is a terrific shame and I just pray that someday REAL COUNTRY MUSIC will make a comeback.

    Thanks for posting and keeping classic country alive.

    Have a blessed week,

    Jeff

  • Vern Gosdin has such a beautiful voice

  • Great Stuff. I love the hearing his music. I own just about everything he sings. I just feel good when I hear his stuff.

  • WOW! I've been lookin for this song for a LONG time. Thanks for posting.
