  • what year did hank williams version come out?

  • @lazercannoncheck According to research I did, Hank Williams recorded Your Cheartin' Heart in 1952, but it was released after his death in 1953.

  • Don't think this a remake!

  • i wish i have met frankie,but my uncle did. he was close school friend and lived in the same neighood in chicago.

  • this was my dad's favourite song

  • Since I was younger just one of my most  favorites songs to be around dancing 'nd go romantics !!!

    I just know those beautiful times they will be not forgotten... even when the tears come down like fallin' rain... and really most of times I'll be blue...

  • Beautiful song, Reminds me of good old days. Very memorable

  • A glorious voice and great song!

  • Nothing can ever replace song like this

  • Love it!

  • faine melodiile astea...sunt relax...

  • This is a great remake. Frankie always said the biggest regret in his recording career was not having the top version of "Your Cheatin'Heart". That's quiet a statement since he flip side was "I Believe" a huge U.S. hit and one of he biggest hits of all time in Britain.

  • one of the better voices! wonderful song he is brilliant

  • Although Frankie Laine sings it great

    I still like Hank Williams. I just could

    sense the sadness on most of Hanks songs.

  • I like this version even more than that of the great Hank Williams. Frankie sure had a way with a song. He even did a couple of semi-classical songs such as Granada & Jalousie & did them well...J

  • Frankie did it his way as nobody could imitate. One of the most recognisable and distinctive voices of all time. Great.

  • Great record.

    I don't know why Tony Bennett's original version of Hank's "Cold Cold Heart" (which I find unlistenable) is always cited but Frankie's "Cheatin' Heart" is never mentioned.

  • Hello, highrising. In re the year-ago comment bout Bennett and Laine. Bennett has become a pop music icon whereas Frankie never had the revival of public interest in his music that he deserved. Also Frankie did all sorts of stuff that was broadly "country-western"; more "western" than "country", of course, but none of it was a "stretch" for him as it was for Bennett.

  • LarryD,

    In revisiting this, I learned that Tony's "Cold, Cold Heart" was actually a No.1 pop hit in 1951. So I suppose it's still remembered because it was a socially significant record, and a significant record in the development of Hank Williams' career and establishing him as a nationally renowned artist --more so than Laine's "Cheatin' Heart.," which came afterward and was not as big.
