    I first heard Mark Wills rendition of this song a few months ago. Totally awesome; applies to women, too. His voice pierces the heart. Great singer!

    I don’t know if people who do not sing fully understand what a great flawless vocalist this man has become in the last decade or two. I wish more than anything in the world that his radio success had happened now instead of 30 years ago because he is quite possibly the best male vocalist Tied with Vince in the Opry cast and, he will never get the credit he should.

The fair didnt open til the next day and we arrived early. well apparently so did mark wills, they were getting done practicing wen we pulled up i recognized him and walked up to him , lol mike my boyfriend was freakn out cz i was just walking over unannounced😅
    mark was the nicest man in the world to me ...cz i got like 3 of his songs wrong. he was gracious and didnt fuss at me but I KNOW ALL his music now LOL
    WHAT A NICE MAN

      I met him about the same time through a friend in a very well-known Christian band. Then a couple of years ago I wanted to go to the Opry for a special show, but I couldn’t get anybody to let me in. Luke Bryan‘s piano player is a good friend of mine and he’s also a good friend of Mark so he called him and he got me the best seats in the building. The day of the show I was telling the waitress about it all and she said I have a secret. Mark is outside. So I got to go say thank you and sing with him. That video is on my channel.

    He does this perfectly. The musicians are outstanding. I never cared for RVS, he was too bland and mellow for me, no real range. Jack the Greene giant just couldn't be matched- until now. Mark gets right there on the edge. Great job!

      Ricky took an early retirement in 2006, wished to spend more time with his family. For sure still sings, but only among friends, family I guess

      Everybody has their own favorite, but RVS never reached the success others did bc he just wasn't as widely liked. Jack Greene was outstanding. I never liked RVS voice at all. Different strokes, as they say.
