[mrdoolin]

I'm SO GLAD THAT SO MANY OF YOU APPRECIATED MY POST! You all have rekindled my faith in music lovers! David

I've always loved this song, but I never hear it on the radio anymore. Even the country music station on TV doesn't play it. I wish they would. Maybe this wasn't a "big hit" for them, but it's such a beautiful song and the Gatlin Brothers voices blend perfectly. Thank you for posting this song. LOVE IT!!!!

[4horsemen96]

Man, in my opinion, it just don't ant better...

[texas9ish]

scratch that its rudy's daughter



[texas9ish]

wow just heard this song and i go to school with larry's daughter

[sumrica]

Nice song. Harmony at a level only siblings can approach. Requests? The Gatlin's "In Like With Each Other" from the "Not Guilty" album.

[focusperson]

One of he best songs of all time... I wish some live versions were available here

[catscrazy660]

I'm 55 years old and I heard this song for the first time in 1979. It touched me then, and it still touches me today. I consider this to be the best ballad ever written and sung. Yet this song has a new meaning today. I am one of many hundreds of thousands of people in our country that have been laid off from work due to corporate greed and poor management. I would love for Larry to dedicate this song to all individuals and families that struggle in our country's current employment nightmare.

A beautiful group passed

[lemonpeg1]

I just heard this for the first time a few minutes ago on the Nashville radio station. I can't believe what I'm hearing! It is so beautifully done.Larry, what a voice!! The harmony you have with your brothers is just out of this world! I will be listening to this a lot!

Thanks for posting. What a treat!

[thehoney0425]

This level of talent is indescribable! Back when this first came out, I listened, almost in a trance-like state, over and over again. Familial harmony cannot be beat and the Gatlins are the best of the best! Thank you guys for hours of enjoyment!

[hunterman1957]

Thank you Gatlin Brothers for the best music, bar none.

[willc854]

how can anyone not like this beautiful song?...i'm not a big country music fan, but i know great music when i hear it

[shortroundify]

Texas sure grows some good ones: The Gatlins, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Hank Thompson, etc. Hard to beat this music.

[dh1928july]

LIFE AND LOVE IS OFTEN DIFFICULT AND ONLY SUCH BEAUTIFUL SONGS CAN EASE THE PAIN, THANK GOD FOR THE GATLINS. MUSIC THRILLS MY SOUL.

[XEJack]

Man this song is so incredibly beautiful, I agree with ya BloozeDaddy, Larry has not been given anywhere near the recognition he and his brothers deserve. They are legends.

[WILDBILL458]

@ssteele1972 very beautiful song.

[morapat]

My favorite of all Larry Gatlin's songs!

[gail53]

Heartbreakingly  Haunting!!!!! The harmonies are so perfect it hurts

[ELLJAY001]

I've loved him for over 30 years... such a beautiful voice and so many memories!

[hawkeyedave]

@ssteele1972 I feel the same way. I love these guys! My favorite trio growing up and I still love them today. Larry Gatlin is a class act!

[BloozeDaddy76]

One of the greatest voices of all time. This fabulous song only proves that Larry Gatlin remains the most criminally underrated singing and songwriting talent in country music history. Show me any male vocalist anywhere on the charts today who can sing even half this good.

This song should've been his biggest hit ever, but it is really a pop ballad more than a country song. Larry's talent is so far ahead of his competition that he is simply "too good" for most music fans to understand.

[hunterman1957]

@BloozeDaddy76 Thank you for the Gatlins best music either pop or country. No matter. Still the best bar none.

[sheeerheaven63]

We just seen The Gatlin Brothers last night at The Shooting Star Casino last night. Larry said this was his favorite song of all time that he ever wrote and recorded. I was bawling and remembering the first time I had ever heard it in 1979 while dusting the living room. I remember clicking the 8 track 4 times to make it go back to this song. THANK YOU FOR THE SONGS LARRY AND BROTHERS! This is my song forever.

[fwsinned]

Does anyone have Take Me To Your Lovin Place that they could put on here?

[ChimaeraKitty]

I love Larry Gatlin's voice and this song especially. It's so sad it hurts to hear it. And I have felt the pain the song expresses.

[kdlaten]

I love this song. Does anyone know where I could find the lyrics to this song?

[mrdoolin]

@kdlaten I can write down the lyrics & send them, if you'd like...or find a place where you can get them yourself. Please do me a favor & write to my email address to remind me. (I don't log into YouTube that often). I'm at mrdoolin1@yahoo.com

[scotty1045]

@kdlaten Do a search for Gatlin Brothers song lyrics. I have found a lot of song lyrics that way.

[brainards1]

I get goose bumps every time I hear this song. WOW...what a voice!

[KarlDaggerfield]

@ssteele1972 One of the great voices in the history of popular music.

[MadiaMarie]

@dsloveswva I know how you feel, I lost my Daddy 7years ago, believe me when I say, when I heard this again it made me cry all over again. It doesn't matter how old you are (46) here, pain knows no age. My Daddy, my Mom and I went to one of their concerts in filer Idaho fair. When I hear Gatlin Brothers they take me back to a better time. I just wish we could freeze time, once in awhile. I am sorry for your loss, but only time heals. take care and bless you all

[Mijischwa]

Judy Collins covered this...didn't think anyone could do it more hantingly, but she did! Beautiful song all the way around!

[hunterman1957]

What can I say? I can't say anything bad about the guys. Beautifull music, have "goose bumps" listening.

[bobmartin3]

What a great song, what a great singer. This is song is his, I don't think there is another person that can sing it.

[BillieJean42]

Larry and Steve and Rudy knock me out with this. As I posted earlier, it's my favorite by them....hands down! If I could suggest another artist that would do justice to it, it would be k.d. Lang. With that velvety smooth voice of hers and the breath control she has...plus the feelings she can convey to the listener, I feel she could make a statue cry if she sang it.

[BillieJean42]

My favorite song by Larry and his brothers. The lyrics are hauntingly beautiful as are the harmonies the fit so perfectly with them.

[mrdoolin]

When I first heard the Gatlin Brothers do "I've Done Enough Dyin' Today", I knew that pop music had entered a different league. Both myself & the woman I loved back in the '90's -well it brought us both to tears. It's been 30 years since her totally unexpected passing & I've never gotten over it, nor will I ever

forget the song. As painful as it is, it really is only one of the connections we've got, unless we're blessed to meet again in Heaven. David L

[brainards1]

@mrdoolin Im sure both of you will meet again one day. :)

[mrdoolin]

@dsloveswva, Yes, sdsloveswva, it's a killer & I rarely listen to it wihout crying. I'd probably give up my remaining 30 years, in order to have my first 30 years back. The music then was timeless & today's music is pretty awful....that is if you don't like Melinda Doolittle, Katherine McPhee-with Bocelli, no less, & of course, our American Treasure...Barbra Streisand.

[mrdoolin]

@dsloveswva Yesdsloveswva, it's a killer & I rarely listen to it wihout crying. I'd probably give up my remaining 30 years, in order to have my first 30 back.

[brainards1]

What a beautiful song!!!

[brainards1]

Damn...I love this song...what a voice!

[llsouthaven]

Just simply beautiful!

[mdahlin75]

This is my all time favorite song by Larry and his brothers. The man can sing. I heard him do this at the Houston Livestock show back in the early 80's.

[SusanDrOh]

Larry's best song.....ever! There's a lot of truth in his music.

[dxmania95]

this is my favorite song that larry sings i love this song!

[BowlingLabRat]

Saw Larry in concert with Crystal Gale tonight.  He introduced this song as "not a big hit but still his personal favorite of all he's written." He was good even though his voice is much older than this recording...and his brothers weren't with him...it did make we want to hear this recording. Perhaps this will motivate me to go buy a needle for the turntable in order to bring out the oldies...definitely a goodie!

[headedsomewhere]

from the first time I heard this song years ago, I still in love with it and the Gatlins...Larry's voice....melts me like butter, and you should hear him sing gospels.....anyway this song is my fave also.........Lady L.

[foxxee54]

@headedsomewhere Even though I am a male their voices/harmonies is pure classic country/pop.

[ExisteDiosInc]

NOW THESE GUYS A FREAKING CLASSY VOICES.... SMOOTH ALMOST SOOTHING MAN this is good stuff..

[thegrizbear]

Awesome....I had this album and used to play the hell out of it. I haven't heard this either in over 20 years. Just heard "Happy Endings" by Johnny Rodrigeuz...WOW....

LG was an under-rated performer...truly a great voice...beautiful really.

[Angeladestefano]

I'm so sorry for your loss. This is a beautiful song and I hope that it helps you to heal.

[Angeladestefano]

What a beautiful song! I haven't heard this in years!

[lothartheterrible]

This was one of my favorite songs when I was a child. I haven't heard it in 25 years, and it brought a tear to my eye. Thank you for posting this.

[godquest52]

The incredible range of the haunting and beautiful voice of Larry Gatlin is so unique indeed. God given talent that has touched all of us who has loved and lost. "Sight".

[fls53151]

NO HARMONIES LIKE THE GATLINS

[Nhlvrnfla]
