  • Love you Misty 12/18 and 2/19

  • amazing song who hasnt felt this way at one time or another

  • The best he ever did - love, love, love this video almost as much as the song itself.

  • Me too! Love them both!

  • he still sings just gospel now,i grew up listening to him i use to be in his fan club, I love ricky v an shelton, my hubby says im not in the 80s anymore lol but i dont care i will die listening to him

  • His face reminds me a litlle of Pat Boone. I don't know why he didn't go farther in his carrer he sure has the voice. I love the sad songs he sings, I think I have everthing he has sung. Wish he hadn't left so soon. May have been a personal thing. I have never heard anything bad about him so I can't figure out why he left so early is his carrer. Maybe he didn't get along with the folks you have to get along with, what a bummer.

  • @suddenlystupid If I had read the other messages I would have gotten the reason for his leaving, old man booze got him as it has so many of our great entertainers . It is a shame for someone so talented to go down that road. You think that when their dream comes true of becoming a star they would be content. But no, maybe it is the struggle of getting there that kept them straight. Keep struggling foks don't let booze and drugs take your life away from you.

  • @suddenlystupid ten number 1 singles and seven gold albums is nothing to be sniffed at. He did very well really.

  • @FabFM

    I just wanted more of him, I hear that tear in his voice and it strikes my heart. I wish we had singers who knew what country was about. Today it sounds like POP music and doesn't make me feel anything.

  • @suddenlystupid i agree with you to a point, although that's what a lot of people were saying back in the 80s and 90s about the acts back then. Ricky has left us with a great back catalogue, which we must be grateful for and the man in a legend!

  • i hate that kind of undershirt except on him

  • Ricky, although your people took Johnny Clarke" s version and arragement of not only "Somebody Lied, and called it your own,m You also took Johnny' s version of " Statue of A Fool" Johnny didn t care. At least it was received. That was what it was about. But, as you see, the establishment turned their backs on you. Why? Between you and them. But your public, as I do, still love your music and talent. Make a comeback. PS Johnny is behind you.

  • from Kalamazoo, Mi.- Ricky, If you read this message, I am still listening to and enjoying your music. I've seen 3 of your concerts, and never heard a song of yours that I did not like. Your voice and music ballads are still being enjoyed by me. If you release any more music, I am one for sure that would buy it. God bless you.

  • i miss his singing. he had a pure vocal tone that was smooth as silk. dang, i miss him performing.

  • I miss Ricky so much. Wish he would sing again

  • I wish that he would come back to true, but he probably wont, so sad but glad he is doing better.

  • This was written by an old friend of mine name Larry Jenkins aka Marcel Twitty. yes Conways nephew

  • what ever happen to him

  • When country was country....

  • I like this song. I always have!

  • He is sooooooHot. My ex and I loved Ricky. We fought over who keep this CD. Well cassette. Love you Ricky ! <3 Val

  • second best song ever

    \

  • Unbelievably beautiful voice. Real Country!

  • Great voice. I like everything he sings.

  • Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!­!

  • I have never seen anyone look better then this in that kinda T-shirt--all I can say is ---Bettye your one lucky lady----RVS your Gorgeous---

  • I have never seen anyone look better then this in that kinda T-shirt--all I can say is ---Bettye your one lucky lady--

  • wishing they could bring him back...he had a voice that quivers the soul....plus my mother is broken hearted.... :-)

  • A wonderful singer - I just love his voice

  • oops!  correction: The devil sneaks in and makes things seem becoming.

  • Original version was Conway and Ricky blows him away with this song. When I first heard this song I said ...Wow who the heck is that what a set of vocals

  • l love this country music  where did it go

  • Ive met rick van shelton (few hours ago) to be honest ..... if you knew the truth only if you knew

  • @LonlyGirl102 What is the truth?

  • RVS did have his own thing going for a good while. It's a shame he didn't really do a whole lot of music of his own. Such a talent he is.

  • Bring this type of music back please

  • i really miss ricky van shelton...i wish he would start singin again

  • Comment removed

  • yes he is pure country he just sings so easy.we need more country music like this.

  • @dannyray6 this is great music

  • I wondered what happened to Ricky - where he went. Caswell, you just answered my thoughts. That is sad. I hope he comes back.

  • im the biggest Elvis Presley fan youll ever see so i dont say this lightly RVS voice is of that caliber through all ranges high to low not many have that abilty some can sing high some low to mid but he reaches all the notes with really no effort thats rare

  • RICKY RANKS UP THERE OF SOME OF THE REALY GREASTEST COUNTRY SINGERS......LIKE CONWAY,,,ALAN,,,JONNY,,,,,,,PL­EASE COME BACK RICKY WE ALL SADLY MISS UR AWESOME VOICE U TRUELY MAKE US CRY WHEN WE HEARE  SOME OF UR BALLADS,,,,,UR ONE OF THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL

  • HE IS ONE OF THE BEST...!!

  • well im glad ricky found religion,,,,,but he left me wanting more. great singer

  • love this song

  • Blake Shelton's better.

  • @1000Shelton not really-you are probably just younger

  • now this is the real deal here ,i dont know what happened to country music these days , it all sounds the same, this is music here cold beer and front porch sitting with the boys

  • I put Ricky up there with Elvis...awesome voice, I want to sing like Ricky Van Shelton when I grow up.

  • Yes this is real country I've always enjoyed thanks for sharing!!

  • Real Country music, not what is out there nowadays that they call country, Ricky is the real deal. Why can't country stuck ups and everyone else forgive and forget and lets get this amazing singer back out there. We all have done something that we would like to take back, so come people, lets Ricky Van Shelton back out there where he belongs. And lets let the wanay be's go back to learn REAL Country Music.

  • Wonder if he kinnes to Blake kinda looks like him

  • @waycephus623 Blake Shelton has said they aren't related at all, but it's so odd to me that they have same last name and look a lot alike to me.

  • @waycephus623 YES hes' Blake Shelton's dad

  • @all95621 Ummm...I don't think so. Ricky is from Virginia & Blake is from Oklahoma. Blake has said that there is no relation between them. Just because 2 people have the same last name doesn't mean they are related. (It's like all those stories a few years ago about Hank Jr being related to Kid Rock...false)

  • @dreamer1215 Have you ever read the Bio of Ricky Shelton?

    Yeah I know all about all of those stories you are talking about.

  • @dreamer1215 ----sure hope hank jr is not related in anyway to kid rock

  • @all95621 No he is not. Ricky & Bette never had children. Blake is from Ada Ok. Ricky V is from Va.

  • One of the great country singers!

  • awsome

  • You heard what? well it ain't true

  • Ricky van Shelton is badass! I seen him in concert was a great show, I like about everyone of his songs..they don't make 'em like this anymore!

  • No one I'd rather listen to than Ricky Van Shelton and Gene Watson.

  • If these singers came back, things would change fast in Country Music.

  • Put me in a room with Ricky Van Shelton and George Strait! I would never be the same again!!

  • I really like him to.

  • ricky has done a couple of gospel albums his 1st "don't overlook salvation" is truly a great album my mom seen it on tbn being advertised while taking care of my dying grandmother and she said something about wanting it 3 weeks later my grandmother lost a brave fight with cancer as her wishes she was to be buried the same day she died when we returned from the graveyard we checked the mail and the cd was in the mailbox my grandma ordered while mom wasnt looking

  • love me some ricky van shelton. used to sit and listen to him all night long. nothing like the way he makes you feel when he sings.

  • it never fails to me that theres so many people who dont know who ricky is ..... how can u not know this mans music!. what happend to music. where greats are unknown to younger people. im 23. and hell i say this is music. . now if theyd only get real country back not this pop crap today. :(

  • They said ...What...That I was crying

  • where is the real country music gone?? misssssss it soo much

  • SOOOOOO Good

  • This is back when country music was really great. Ricky Van Shelton was one of a few to make it so enjoyable. He has the look, voice and stage presence of a great country ballad artist. Not bad on the eyes at all. It's ashame that drinking overcame him that caused so many problems. The devil sneaks in and makes thinks seem becoming. I thank the Lord that He overruled and brought Ricky back. I understand why he retired, but he sure is missed.

  • Ricky has a beautiful voice and have made so many good songs.

  • I love this song, have for a very long time, Here is to you Jimmy and Angie, don't worry i want call you ever again

    Take care

  • @rsuzie1313 I don't know Jimmy and Angie. This is a great song, though.

  • @caswell1000 , thanks for letting me know, Jimmy and Angie are my children and i am sorry to say have totally lost touch with what is real and what is not, who to love and trust and who not to love and trust. thanks again,gismo1313 P.S. Love the picture of your dog, i have 2 i call them my babies

  • @rsuzie1313 Actually, I have one dog, a Schnauzer, who is one of my babies. I'm not sure where I found this picture, but I love it, too. I can surely relate to your situation. God Bless You!

  • @rsuzie1313 yeah you've lost touch thats for sure. considering a dog like a baby... You probably believe in abortion too.

  • @cedong77 You are not in touch with god or the world today and No i am not for or against abortion, if i were you i would run and get some help and fast. Have a great day

  • @rsuzie1313 Well I was right about you.. you're whats called a reprobate.

  • @caswell1000 No matter about what he did , you can tell by looking at his eyes (the windows of the soul) he truly is a Christian and has now gone back to Jesus. Thankfully .

  • Simple straight forward country no bells & whistels,love it the music I grew up & got drunk to when times where a little hard.

  • One of the best songs ever

  • What happen to country music????? I seen this man live, he was beautiful! I cannot remember the last time I bought a country cd! Carrie underwood is not country:)

  • Great, great song by one the best voices ever. Love Ricky Van Shelton. Wish he was still touring. I have all his recordings that I can find and the music videos on VHS. 

  • great song

  • By far one of the most beautiful voices I have had the previlege of hearing. I am so glad that he is still singing, just now he sings for the Lord and I am sure that brings him peace. We sure lost a lot when he quite touring though. Is there any where that he performs in person anymore? I would love to see him on stage again. Ricky, your talent will never be forgotten. It will be up there along with Elvis and Jim Reeves. God Bless you. You will not be forgotten.

  • this song fits me to the tee

  • simply one of best voices in C&W...thx for podting it

  • This is REAL country music not the pop- rock crap the pump out today and try to pass it off as country...

  • @Carballoca very ture. George Strait sang a song called " some one commited murder on music road" and hit the nail right on the head with that song.

  • 6 dislikes. Apparently, in their eyes, nobody has lied. "-)

  • This was a part of real country and I'm 24

  • i miss you gary much,xenia

  • i miss country like this

  • RICKY DID STOP PERFORMING WAY TO EARLY! I LOVE YOUR MUSIC. YOU HAVE THE BEST VOICE I HAVE HEARD IN YEARS..I LOVE YOU GOD BLESS YOU !

  • @MrMessoblues I TOTALLY AGREE!

  • lov'n it

  • my dad a country singer and he sings dis song so well

  • What happen to this Music? This is the real Country we all love so much.

  • he is way better the blake

  • He has such a beautiful voice.

  • Dang it Ricky get back out there boy!!!! Don't let the devil run ya off..

  • We all complain about this type of music no longer being played but it's our fault, because we stop supporting the radio stations that play it or buy the music from these type of artist. Support real country music and request real country songs!

  • @straitpirate that's half true. we did let down the artist(s) doing this...while radio when global and likes "purty" over substance. call ins to stations are a thing of the past. RVS cd...2.99 on a shelf..lord i bet i almost cried!

  • Scary how much that guy at the bar looks like Dale Sr.

  • Great song, great voice..what happened to all these guys who could sing like this?

  • NOW. THAT'S GOOD COUNTRY MUSIC!!!!!!!1

  • a beautiful song, sung by a first class country singer, what a great powerful voice.

  • Had to listen to this one...your voice is beautiful and you do this song a lot justice. This is wonderful.

  • Ricky lives down the road from me.

  • @greivisangel where?

  • @greivisangel

    Well tell him to come to Lemoore,Ca. at the casino!!!

  • I have loved Ricky since i was 14 years old,STILL DO.......

  • not only best song ever, but Ricky in his wb? can't beat that with a stick!!! lol

  • Comment removed

  • @caswell1000 I guess it's a TEXAS thang. My hubby wore the undershirts like Ricky has on, but it seems that so did every wife abuser that the cops arrested on the hit show here Cops. I have a lot of officers in my fam, hence the nickname for the undershirt, WB =wife beater. As for Ricky, I was just saying that he looked really good in it! I am a life fan, have seen him in concert back in the day, will always love his work! And I know all the young ones call the wb's out too. My story,stickin2it

  • Comment removed

  • @caswell1000 And should have clarified that my husband wasn't an abuser either! lol It is just slang picked up from the cops show, but never the less, Ricky looks darn good in his UNDERSHIRT!!! LOL Statue of a Fool is just about my fav.

  • Comment removed

  • @caswell1000 You know, I was blessed also, but my first husband beat the tar out of me and he wasn't EVEN wearing a WB,!! Ricky has the GREATEST ARMS, have you seen him in the round singing Statue? It is awesome and even Willie is there!!

  • Comment removed

  • @caswell1000 here it is girl, it is so awesome, I saw Ricky with Reba the concert before the band was killed in 92, and you will see Willie at 2:28-32. I love him so much too, and gonna see him the 27 Nov., Saw him 7 years ago, these concerts are Christmas presents! lol hope you can get this, copy and paste, if not it is under NotGeneWatsonSongs

  • I love Ricky Van Shelton and other of the older CM singers , so many of the good ones have gone on and it is true todays country music stinks it has nothing to it they should shut Nashville down except for a very few.

    angeleyes990

  • Love his songs!! It is sad that he is not still in the spot light of country music. There is alot that the younger generation of country music artists could learn from him. I would love to go see him in person. Love his voice.

  • Love this Song!!! an All time Favorite

  • Love his voice he can make you laugh or cry with his songs

  • rebjack

    Totally agree im struglin to enjoy C M just now.

  • Yes it is great to sit & watch a great concert with our favourite singers. I have been to Gene Watson concerts 4 times in Ireland twice in London & Three times in America. I have lost count of all the great Country Artists we have been lucky enough to see. Ricky van Sheldon is just tops too. There are so many brilliant country artist in the USA that we don,t know about & when we went to Austin & Fort Worth Texas. The music was just pure traditional country. It was magic.

    Margaret

  • I love this man I wish he would come out a new song also

  • Luvs it. :P

  • God, PLEASE let Ricky come back through Florida on tour - and let me know up front when it is going to happen !!! ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARTISTS !!!

  • Ricky Van Shelton..there'll never be another with a look and voice like yours......................Gwe­n Weaver.

  • Most under rated singer of all.

  • @dirislr ..Ricky Van Shelton was not under rated. He just would not go along with just any thing. He had a certain key that he sang in and if they would not play it, then that was it with him. He's too nice a guy to be in all stuff, with a nice wife. I wish he would record another gospel album. Still your fan, Gwen Weaver

  • Great singer & brilliant sing. We were lucky enough to see this great singer in Glasgow Scotland, many years ago.

    Margaret

  • @magbrown1 - I was at the same concert in Glasgow in 1994. I have been to over 100 concerts by many different singers, and Ricky's was the best. He was the most relaxed singer I have seen, and of course had a brilliant voice.

  • Very good!

  • FANTASTIC song and of course with Ricky singing it made it that much better !! Love his soft emotional voice and when he sings these love ballads he certainly can touch your heart... Thanks to my sweet friend ramey58 for sharing this awesome video and song with me and to joneangel for posting it..!

    Have a great weekend and God Bless.

    Hugs from Georgia, Joyce xXx

  • THIS IS REAL LIFE

    DLGLOHIO

  • I agree with asher1112 and I have 7 and 8 little girls and this is the country music the know and love we all gather and play good ole country music so our kids know what it is !

  • awesome song thank ya

  • Comment removed

  • @caswell1000 So true. I saw Ricky 5 times in concert and he was by far the best. Hated to see him retire.

  • wow i love this song, this im favouring, brilliant, my best wishes ann: ))

  • just love thismans voice!! bob

  • My favourite RVS song!

  • RVS has a great voice - lots of emotion in this, and in his other songs!

    Starliner

  • damn good en'
