Hellen Reddy had this song out too..I remember - that's all I would hear. I guess i wasn't tuned into Country radio back then.. although Reddy did a nice job, Tanya's version is far better.
Monica didn't bring me here, my amazing parents had me listening to this since I could remember. this is a dang good song,thats why I will keep coming here.
I listened to this song when I was very young and I liked it. I still like it though now it is like a mirror of my life, I am almost 41 and people think I am insane because I met such a man when I was 17, believing in a dream for years. Now I understood that I was dreaming in vain but maybe it is too late. I like the sound and the words that speak the truth. I always liked such songs, they live in my heart and truthful songs will always be liked by others too.
I am 14 years old. Yes I listen to today's music. But my mum has been singing this to me since I was very little and I have always loved this song and always known the lyrics off my heart <3 See Kids these days can know what real music is. <3 Love this song so much.
I worked at Opryland Themepark when Tanya did the summer concert and got to talk to her. I was heading back to our shed that was behind the theatre and she was rehearsing. After she finnished a song she stopped long enough to ask how I was doing. I'll never forget that.
My great grandmother has one of the late stages of alihizimers, she responds to next to nothing now, but she responded to this song yesterday. its her favorite.
I always liked Tanya Tucker, but I remember the constant AirPlay this got when I was 14. I got so tired of it. Now it almost brings a tear to my eye as it takes me back... My love to you Tanya!!!
@spinner2722 even if she did sound like that shes a 14 year old girl with one of the most powerful voices of any woman. she accomplished more in 14 years than you and i will accomplish in our whole lives.
This was a favorite of mine as a little girl. I thought it was so sad that such an OLD lady was still looking for that mysterious dark-haired man. Well, today's my 41st birthday, and my stepfather still calls me "Baby" now and then. I found my man, though, and life is good. So glad to still have this gorgeous song around to share with my own little girl.
What a foolish young boy I was in the mid 70's. I loved Tanya Tucker. I dreamed so often about meeting her and even marrying her. Her music helped me through some rough patches. My Momma and Daddy were constantly yelling and fighting and then they finally broke off their marriage around the time this song came out. It was this and and the other songs of Tanya Tucker that lifted me out of a really bad place.
@kellyrmefford1 "billy-goat vibrato",......I hurt myself laughing at that, but your critique is spot on! I had no idea Ms. Tucker was so young. I found myself here to settle a bet that I lost, at least partially. Helen Reddy charted higher but Tanya performed it before Reddy, however neither wrote it.
mom my loved this song ... after her funreal i stayed at my gmas for a few weeks to help make arangements and such and me my family was sitting around sing and playing this on 4 my mom
A few years ago I saw George Jones perform at the Ryman and Tanya Tucker came out and did a few lines from this song. It's not very often in this life that you get a treat like that.
When I go out to karaoke I always start out with this song. I don't care for her angora sheep sound either when she carries her note and I thank god I don't do that.... ick. She did get better about that and is an amazing singer and artist. Everytime I sing Delta Dawn the whole place always joins in.
Tanya Tucker was a BABY when she sang this...and no one did it better. It's so sweet to watch this video - on first glance she looks mature, but then you see the awkward "tweener" there, just trying to fake it. Love this song and love Tanya singing it!
This cacophony cannot even begin to light a candle to the musically much more sophisticated Helen Reddy version. And, by the way, which artist took this song all the way to the top of the chart? Hint-it wasn't Tanya Tucker!
does it get any better? I remember as a kid hearing songs like this and feeling the warmth of good family and friends who were considered family. Something that's fading fast. Now you have to MAKE a choice to love. awesome country music era.
Monica's version is better, 'cause this chick has the voice of a goat :)
