  • Lex L. just disagrees with everyone, and that earned him a permaban.

  • Good cover to a 70's song, despite the cheesy video and "mullet". But he covers this song as good as anybody, in fact I think I like his version better.... just my humble opinion.

  • Is he going to have a conversation and reminisce with every person in that line? I would have given up and left if I were in the back.

  • Is he going to stop and have a conversation and reminisce with every person in that line? I would have probably left if I were in the back of the line.

  • this is a song you can dedicate to SO MANY PEOPLE and in SO MANY SITUATIONS!!

  • NIIIIIIICE!

  • great song

  • Wow, he is a succesful Country singer and artist but @3:05 he sees the life he could have had, this is very profound

  • So I like the sound in the Dave Mason version, but I prefer Billy Dean's voice...

  • The original Dave Mason recording of this song had a country panache in the guitar, so it was only natural for a county artist to record a toothless hillbilly version. However to say that Billy Dean out did Dave Mason is as nuts as saying Tony Bennett did better versions of Beatles' music!

  • I like this version the best i mean how can't you not like Billy Dean Trying To Hide A Fire In The Dark Is Still My Favorite Billy Dean Album.

  • It's pretty good, BUT check out the origional version by Dave Mason- I guess it just depends on when you were born.

  • 90's country- Greatest era of music of all time.

  • This is a great cover. I definitely remember hearing this song on the country stations when I was a young boy in the 90s. In my opinion, that is my favorite era in Country music.

  • Way to ruin a classic. This song was written by Dave Mason's guitar player: Jim Krueger from Manitowoc, WI...and this is the tune that put Mason on the map. Jim later became a member of a novelty group called the Happy Schnapps Combo out of his hometown. Most famous for "The Bears Still Suck". Jim passed away in '93...hopefully before this wretched song was released.

    Some songs just shouldn't be covered. This is one of them.

  • Best country song? I guess I Just Disagree! No comparison to Dave Mason!

  • watch?v=Hpy-psuDz6U

  • This man is a pure genius!

  • Lex L. just disagrees with everyone.

  • Good version, but Dave Mason's is still the best

  • aw yeah back when country was country, great voice and about dead on lyrics

  • she dumped him because of ending of said movie

  • Good song

  • DAMN i love 90's country!

  • @bleedforme1981 90's country?? this song is from the 70's

  • @zac030101

    As a pop rock song, it's from the 70s, but it's a 90's country song.

  • @zac030101 I know, i like that version too. This is a cover of that from around 93 or so.

  • Billy and Tim McGraw RULE!!!!!!

  • WWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love this song. Billy dean too!

  • I agree with spfldfalcons - if this is Country, I see i've ignored a whole genre of music... this is one of my favorites of all time!

  • He's hot...

  • I think you missed the point, The Cady05. "There ain't no good guy. There ain't no bad guy." However, I just disagree with you, fellow "not so good, not so bad guy".

  • This guy has been to quiet for to long..I remember his music like it was yesterday-magic..I love lookin' up the greats from early 90's late 80's on youtube. what fun..Shenandoah, Neil Mccoy, Alabama love it. How fortunate was I to grow up in a time where their music blessed us all..music from the soul,not all the nigger bs..too much of that as it is..One of the greatest of all times-rock-on...

  • @TheCady05  You coulda left the N word out

  • I saw him in concert shortly after this song was at its peak. He was amazing. Someone brought him up today and I just had to look him up and give him another listen. Still great.

  • Billy Dean has never been my favorite artist, but I do like his music.

  • Prefer the Dave Mason version, but this is a great song regardless of who does it.

  • I haven't heard this in so long it's great to hear it again.

  • If only more people could subscribe to this way of thinking.

  • In my openion this is the best version of this song

  • ummmm good vid

  • Far and away one of the best country remakes of a pop song and vastly superior to the original in my opinion.

  • "SO let's just leave it alone.cuz we can't see eye to eye.There ain't no good guy,there aint no bad guy.Theres only you and me and we just disagree." This is exactly the message i wanted to get across to the principals back when I was in junior and senior high XD LOL

  • I always thought the girl in this video reminded me of a young Joan Van Ark, maybe because of the long, straight blonde hair.

  • More songs like this need to be made.

  • ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVES!!!!

  • What has happened to him? Where did he go?

  • Billy Boy! You are very talented!

  • Quite possibly one of the best country songs ever and definatly the best remake of a song all time!!!

  • I love this video, Hope to hear you sing again soon

  • I miss Billy Dean. I was lil when he was big. Now it's just a memory. I wish he would come back. I love His songs, especially "Billy The Kid", & "Trying To Hide A Fire In The Dark".

  • you're all kidding me right? mason's version is 1,000 times better than this.

  • when the boys turn to music, the girls just turn away, to some other guitar picker in some other late night place.

    who here knows what i'm talking about

  • title of song is " The Fans " by Alabama

  • its actually "My Home's in Alabama." i'm just saying that line fits this song very well.

  • sorry about that I actually got confused either great song around my way you don't hear alabama much

  • I have looked for this song forever. Thanks so much for posting it.

  • i like this song. Its a good song.

  • I like this version alot better. It's true, i did hear this one first, but after hearing David Mason's version, I didn't really like it. It has too much of a hippie sound in it.

  • 15 Years went by quick, Wow!!!

  • This is the beat remake of a song ever!!!

  • glad someone posted this ive been looking gor it for years!!!!!!

  • I actually heard this version first and thought it was pretty good - but heard Dave Mason's version later and it blew this one away. I don't know why anyone would the remake is better.

  • I like this version better than the older version by Dave Mason. Billy Dean's version has more country and rock mixed into it!!

  • this is great

  • I was listening to SIRIUS radio today, DJ for Prime Country led this song by saying, "There are very few really good song remakes...either they do it just like the original or try to make it too different...this is one of the best remakes ever made". He was right.

  • I LOVE Sirius Prime Country. It's my favorite stations.

  • Good tune and video
