Don’t know if anyone cares but my Dad returned from Vietnam at 20 years old. 13 months in the jungle broke a small town young man’s spirit. He heard this song and thought “If ever have a little girl she will be Amanda.” Believing he would never have children, he put the thought out of his mind. He drank and ran for ten years until he met a woman that just loved him. He became the man he always should have been. When I was born he told everyone I was Amanda. My mother and I never knew why he chose the name, he just recently told us at 70 years old. That’s quite an honor to me.
@@Donavan37 thanks so much for your words. Actually he’s 75 years old and I’m so grateful he’s still doing ok. I’m at his house today with my old hounds. IDK why my father decided to get a German Shepard rescue a year ago but the dog is going on 2 and completely WILD. My Dad had to drop off a gift for friend in a retirement home (couldn’t go in bc Covid). He took his giant German Shepard with him and just came in cursing bc the dispensary is closed today lol. Pretty good for a 75 year old dude 😁. Have a great holiday!
@@amandanegrete1306 Same to you. Have an amazing holiday. I am actually currently in Vietnam, teaching abroad so far from my family. So a lonesome Christmas and New Year.
I don't know how it is possible, but this Texas born lifelong Waylon fan thinks this is the best version of this song I have ever heard. Excellent work.
This is the best version of Amanda ever. Demi Moore has a beautiful voice and face. Steve has a wonderful gravelly voice. I watch this several times a day, can't get enough.
Op een of andere manier kwam ik op het Zuid Afrikaanse deel van youtube. Heerlijk, al die goede nummers die ik (min of meer) kan verstaan zonder dat deze kapot gedraaid zijn op de radio. Groeten uit Nederland
The first time I heard this version of this song today, somehow the memories of my late partner came flooding back. I lost her to cancer over four years ago and today I miss our good times together. 😭 Loving this song so much!
her voice is just as pure and originally beautiful. straight vocal. I can only say she's blessed with her voice. I even ❤ her songs with Steve Hofmeyr "I will always love you" and the other called "coat of many colour" I love you guys. beautiful duet performance ❤❤❤
I am a young black woman who is deeply inlove with country music as well as Afrikaans music. Such a calming sound that no other kind of music has. 🌻 Thank you for this, sir Steve
Black Namibian man here, tho I’m studying in the States right now. Man they is nothing that hit home like this. A little home sick and these guys always make it go away. To Steve, Bobby, Bok, Jay , Ruhan and Ricus, Just to mention a few. ( God seen julle almal. ) Thank you for sharing your gifts.
Totally in love with them. First saw the video and felt their incredible voices. ive been stuck on repeat. Kudos from from the beautiful islands of fiji🇫🇯🇫🇯🇫🇯
I have listened to this song more then a dozen times. It keeps playing in my head. Demi Lee and Steve Please give us more of the hauntingly beautiful combination of your voices. Bravo. Encore. Encore.
Quick the Tv is saying run a knife under cold water then go to a plug socket turn it on and insert knife into said plug socket The TV is saying once done you can never catch fantasy covid ever! I can hear you running water already lemming! 😂
Great, that the Star himself gives hearts out! Love it! Greetings from Germany! But I love it more when you sing in your mother tongue! You and the Afrikaanse culture is amazing...
@@SteveHofmeyrTV Hi Steve, I lived 13 years in Namibia and my child is a half Afrikaaner. My heart is bleeding and I hope that I one day will be back. I love your patriotism and how much you love the land and the people. Germany has become a tyranny to me. I miss the total freedom, the culture, and the people of Namibia and South Africa so much. All the best to all of you over there!
I'm coloured but this is my people we share the same tradition, culture, language and DNA... boer and coloured ladies are by far the most beautiful ladies on this planet... brown and white ❤❤❤... a boer hard will save us all we need more steves.. Jan is our forefather
My father passed on in 2002, he liked this song a lot, every time it plays it reminds me of my old man, keep on resting well Dad, Glory to God for your life
I stumbled upon this video and immediately had to hear more. His voice is so amazing - like Waylon and Johnny Cash. And Demi is just perfection. I’m in love.
he is South Africas' best Afrikaans sing ever, u must listen to his Neil Diamond songs .still smile everytime when I realise him and me have the same Hofmeyr Forefather,
I’m watching and writing from west Africa. And you? I want to use this platform to ask for God blessings upon you and your household and I’m pleased to called you my invisible friend. Thanks!
Grown up my whole life watching this man on stage... He never disapoints... This beautiful version still brings me to tears... The life, the memories, my ripped jeans... never will I ever forget... Thank you Uncle Steve for everything you do for our Country... I will still vote for you if you choose to become our president.
Wow! That was simply goosebumps! What thought provoking Lyrics and so beautifully sung with Passion by Mr Hofmeyer. His voice has sadness and love.. Thank You for a great DUET! Lovely Music Video! Greetings from Germany, GOD BLESS!!!......👌💪💕🎤
What a BEAUTIFUL song!!! Amazing Steve & Demi-Lee... Amanda ! Will live for at least another 4 generations because of your STUNNING remake!!! You are some of the MOST remarkable South African artists!!!
Demi, I am now in the 70s, and your beautiful voice and the REMAKE are such... & so complete... "STILL LISTENING " My early country favourite song... THANK YOU & God, bless
Listening to all thees country songs makes me realised that 90s days was best, music was full of love and joy , purely talent and lyrics was full of hopes and innocent . Alas! Those days are gone now it's the only memories that lives in our hearts along with the country songs. I'm thankful to God that I belonged to 90s🙏.
Still in 2022, my child call me a "" cringe mom" but i love old classic, that speaks to ur soul. And this version is excellent. Well done. Keep going. I honestly dont need a tv, just music, its a remedy for any heart "condition". Universal language
Demi Lee Moore ek kan die hele aand sit en luister na jou stem jy sing so mooi, Steve ek bly nog altyd n groot aanhanger julle twee mag regtig maar saam sing!
This is amazing. Goosebumps. their voices match each other so perfectly. And I must say: I wish Demi Lee Moore will make more songs that show off her amazing voice.
Dit is wonderlik om n ou wat jy dink n totale doos is te sien sing, en die doos doen dit so goed dat jy vergeet hoeveel van n poephol die ou eintlik is.
In South Africa we love us some country music. Both old artist and new, God bless them all and those that listen to and enjoy them, and even copy them.
Here in 2024 . I listen to this every time and it never fails to make me cry 😢..
Who comes here to listen to this song everyday ? Well I do !!
