James William (Bill) Anderson III (born November 1, 1937 in Columbia, South Carolina) is an American country music singer, songwriter, and television personality. In his career, he has released more than forty studio albums, and has reached Number One on the country charts seven times: "Mama Sang a Song" (1962), "Still" (1963), "I Get the Fever" (1966), "For Loving You" (with Jan Howard, 1967), "My Life (Throw It Away If I Want To)" (1969), "World of Make Believe" (1974), and "Sometimes" (with Mary Lou Turner, 1974). Besides these, twenty-nine more of his singles have reached Top Ten.

One of the most successful songwriters in country music history, Bill Anderson was also a hugely popular singer in his own right, earning the nickname "Whispering Bill" for his soft vocal style and occasional spoken narrations.[1] Artists who have recorded his material include Ray Price, Connie Smith, Kenny Chesney, and George Strait.

Besides his career in country music, Anderson made several television appearances, including two stints as a game show host: The Better Sex (with co-host Sarah Purcell) in 1977, and the country music-themed quiz show Fandango (1983-1989). He has also hosted an interview show called Opry Backstage and a talent show called You Can Be a Star, and has made guest appearances on several other television series.

  • This is from the 1967 movie "Road to Nashville". Johnny Cash sang two songs in it. It also featured Waylon Jennings, Porter Wagoner, Marty Robbins among others I can't remember. I think the plot was Doodles Weaver trying to put together a Country show, but it was only memorable for all of the great Country legends that appeared in it.

  • Beautiful old country song.....when country was still country :-)

    Greetings,

    Waldo

  • "Whispering Bill". Damn what an inspiration an inspiration to all who love country music.

  • You just can't help but love Whisperin' Bill.

  • shitty video....keeps breaking up......

  • Sonny Garrish is one of the best stell guitar player in the world.  Just listen how made the teardop sounds on this song. Bill has always got reat musicians in his band.

  • What a brilliant country song. This is how country should be sang

  • I have no idea how I got here. But I'm so glad I did. Thank you for posting this. Bill Anderson rocks!

  • thanks for the upload. Bill sometimes performs this song on the Opry. In your video description there's a minor error. Bill never hosted "You Can Be a Star". That talent show was hosted by Jim Ed Brown. I think Bill may have been a producer of that show but he wasn't the host.

  • An utterly stupendous single that was also covered beautifully by Vic Dana. This was a hit for Bill in 1966. The vocal harmonies are provided by the late, great Jimmy Gateley, who sadly passed away in the 1980s. One of country music's all time masterpieces.

  • This is the first time that I have seen Jimmy Gately, Bill Anderson's right hand man and leader of his Po' Boys (Now the Po' Folks), play the bass guitar.  In the clips that I have seen of him, he usually plays guitar or fiddle.

    Rest In Peace Jimmy Gately, you left us all too soon.

  • Beautiful voice.Awesome video.
