Earl Thomas Conley (born October 17, 1941, in Washington, Ohio) is an American country music singer and composer. Between 1980 and 2003, he recorded ten studio albums, including seven for the RCA Records label. In the 1980s and into the 1990s, Conley also charted more than thirty singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, of which eighteen reached Number One.

When Conley was 14, his father lost his job, forcing the young boy to move in with his older sister. He was offered a scholarship to an art school, but rejected it in favor of joining the U.S. Army. After being honorably discharged from the military, he began playing in clubs in Nashville, Tennessee, at night, supporting himself working blue-collar jobs during the day.

Feeling that he wasn't making any progress in Nashville, Conley moved to Huntsville, Alabama to work in a steel mill. There, he met record producer Nelson Larkin, who helped him sign with independent record label GRT in 1974. Conley released four singles on that label, none of which became large hits. At the same time, he was selling songs that he had written to other artists, including Conway Twitty and Mel Street, who were having much success with them.

Conley returned to Nashville, now writing for Nelson Larkin's publishing house. In 1979, he signed a recording contract with Warner Bros. Records. Two years later, he had his first Top 40 hit, "Dreamin's All I Do". He left the label in 1979 and joined Sunbird Records, where he again worked with Nelson Larkin. This time, Conley found success, with a Top Ten and a Number One single within the next two years. He continued to have success over the next few years, and in 1983, he was nominated for multiple Grammy Awards for his song "Holdin' Her and Lovin' You". He set a record the following year as the first artist in any genre to have four Number One singles from the same album. Conley also appeared on Soul Train in 1986, the first and only country artist to do so.

By the end of the 1980s, Conley began collaborating with Randy Scruggs (son of legendary country singer Earl Scruggs), in the hopes that he could bring his music back to his country roots. His record sales began to drop in the 1990s, as country music took a more pop turn, and Conley was dropped from his record label in 1991. He continued to tour throughout the 1990s, but was without a recording contract for most of that time. He began recording again in 1998.

I know the feeling and man, is it a tough thing to do. Thank God I'm not there now and I feel sorry for anyone that is.

God Bless,

Jeff

[Bobaganush26]

Theres nothing wrong with being in love with two peple at once, I know its hard, but some people just don't understand. I wish I could tell the one I'm holding at night, that I want to hold someone else, but I don't want to hurt her

THIS SONG SUITES ME AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE

[rosskarvonen]

this is a very nice song

[fabalishous]

A dream I had last night made me think of this one. The words kind of hit home. Also made me think of another song by 98 degrees that now that I think of it, the idea was ripped off of this one.
