my BFFF, my lover, my partner, my husband said to me the words to this song define true love & I agree, I love you baby, completely & uncinditionally forever
please do your self a favour and listen to Nana Mouskuri and her french version of this song " Si J'etais Perdue" by the way N.M is greek and sings in 9 languagges.
very beatiful sounding song. love the lyrics and they seem so meaningful. so much maturenous for a young teen,very professional. love it one of my favorites.her voice tended to smooth out abit as she got older. sounds great
The sheer beauty of her voice has walked through the recesses of my mind for 40 years, caressing the memories hidden there. She even this day brings them to life with her voice.
i ove this son it makes me cry . my friends mom had this song sang at her wedding by one of her friends .. i love it and i think it makes every firl cry .. espically if you think thease are things youll never have in a guy
It's a great injustice that Tanya Tucker did not get the due recognition from the people in the music industry. She is a fine,fine singer and definitely deserves more respect.
@mclenptp She has had her years in the sun. Maybe not the brightest of all the country stars. Classic voice, but her own choice to be classified as an "outlaw" - and her too-public relationships hurt her in the eyes of some conservative country fans and producers.
@fiddlefeller - Pal, you are probably right about her private life and effects on her career. Another fine country singer, Gram Parsons, labelled as an 'outlaw', was also shunned by people running the country music industry.
@mclenptp Outlaws don't want respect...to do is the 'due' and our morning dew, doo dah / doo dah. But, this is great! What is unjust is the current state of country music but for a few...
This is the sweetest version of one of the best songs in history. Thanks. I'm using this song as a wedding song. When she reads her vows to me...I'm singing mine to her. This song's part of the plan. The lyrics help a lot.
David Allen Coe used to be so good but his career seems to have crashed and burned. His recordings were produced by Billy Sherrill for example. I have asked what happened?
Noone can ever sing the song with the conviction that DAC wrote it with. DAC's emotions are laid absolutely bare when he plays this song. He is one of the true geniuses. This is a great version though.
It doesn't matter who wrote or sang the song first, cause after listening to both of them, i say TANYA TUCKER IS WAY BETTER THAN COE COULD EVER BE. And I love this song.
David Allan Coe and Tanya Tucker are both great, their versions are very different. I wouldn't say one is better than the other.
Tanya is clearly a better vocalist, but DAC has a much larger variety of styles. He can do country, rock, and blues really well. And his lyrics cover almost evey subject you can think of. He'd probably be as big a Willie or Merle, if he wasn't an ex-con and a criminal. You can't really compare them. That'd be like comparing Hank Sr to Patsy. They're too different.
