Congrats on your recovery time ODAAT,and we're all proud of you for pushing on during your time in rehab/halfway house when you(if you're like me)felt like giving up. Keep on doing what you're doing,it's working obviously
I could hardly bear to listen to this song when I first encountered it. It pricks vulnerability in a way both painful, yet healing. Definitely one of the great songs sung by one of the greatest performers out there today.
Kind of makes you wonder what this song is actually about. Is it about his honesty to a girl.... or an honest prayer to God? "would you love anyway even though you know me through and through with all the stupid things I`ve done"?
I never thought I would follow you on a journey starting with Hootie and the Blowfish to now, but here we are. I’m in awe of the clarity of your voice. Please keep up the stellar work.
@@brandons5782 Sorry to see that brother hope things get better for you. It might be hard to stay positive but if you can, try to remember times good & happy to push out the negative or sad feelings. You don't know me & I don't know you but since it seems we like the same music & you could use an eye or an ear to talk to, I'm always OPEN. I dont like to know people are sad or hurting since now I know after dealing with myself for 20 years it's unhealthy & unfair to go through anything alone. You are NOT alone brother hit me up. Im a good listener/reader. ✌ & 🤟 brother
Darius gives me so much pride! To see a black man sing country music like this! Music, like mathematics truly is a universal language. It transcends race, language, borders, cultures. We are all one through music with the same hopes, dreams, and fears. Thank you Darius, love, love, love your music. It's therapy for me. 🥰 Many greetings from Kenya.
I wonder if your use of the word “pride” in your first sentence was intentional. As in … the late great Charley Pride, who paved the way for Darius Rucker to follow.
“If I told you the mess that I can be when there’s no one there to see. Could you look the other way? Could you love me anyway?” Hits so close to home.
It takes a special person to strip away all the trappings of fame. Stand up in complete emotional nudity and make a song like this. Just for the rest of us, hiding behind our various facades. One of the best songs I’ve ever heard
I’m asking out of genuine curiosity, but did Darius write this song or was it somebody else? Either way, it takes someone special to want to sing this song…….and it takes a whole nother level deeper of a person to actually write this song and expose those hidden places of themselves.
@loriace9841 Very true, his lyrics resonate alotbin my soul. Like his words are truly what I feel. I can barely make an album without being teary-eyed. Kudos Darius!
_Darius Rucker and his new video are pure gold, goosebumps! He's about to bless us with his fifth County album, can't wait. 😊 He once said, all he ever wanted was for people to know his voice. Well, for me it was 1994. Thank you for your beautiful music._
this man is amzing as hell he went rock band to country music and not all rock stars can pull off but he sure did and im so glad Darius Rucker did and to answer question for a person that dont know alot about country music there is a crap load of country music look it up .
Thanks so much for the comments and support you’ve showed me towards my music , I’m so grateful and happy to check on you ! You can leave me a text on my mail : (Dariusruckermusic1@outlook.com) And let me know more about you❤️🇱🇷🎶🔊
Hey beautiful! Im Valence, lost my family during covid Its been a memory flash back all day.... Sometimes I feel like I don't worth living without them, but little hobbies keep me moving. I really want someone to have a good conversations with, I just hope you don't mind?
Darius Rucker any woman would be crazy not to. Your song's are all deep, up lifting and hit the heart and soul. Keep your head up and call her. You maybe surprised to know how she feels. I'm always routing for you! 💯🤙🤙🤘
This man is the epitome of talent. Pure talent. He was good 17 years ago in Hootie and the Blowfish and he bad ass today. His voice is perfection and there's something to be said about an artist who writes relatable and genuine songs from the heart. ❤️❤️❤️
He is an amazing diverse artist with an impeccable voice. Truly unique. I admire his strength and determination. Amazing in concert. Sometimes, when people walk away, it's a blessing in disguise. Eventually, the right one will walk into your life when the time is right .
Chelsey Cadena I feel ya, I feel Luke this was written for me, at least explains me! Great song Darius, love your singing. Thanks for this one especially 😁💋💖
Tell me about it.... I've lived with one of the biggest & most painful regrets of my life since 1970. You can't go back, I tried, but I can't destroy anyone else's life because of my mistake. I'll always love him & I believed him when he said he still loved me. But choices were made & although they were the wrong ones, life goes on...u love again, just in a different way, but if you're lucky it will be rewarding in ways you never imagined. Still, the 1st ❤ love, that very 1st love... will live forever, if only in 2 hearts❤❤ that are miles apart. We'll be together one day... forever....❤❤
What a beautiful song, God bless you all. We will cry together and love with our beating hearts until we die. Blessed is the man that trusts in the lord Jeremiah 17:7-8 Proverbs 3 5 6. A woman who walks with God will always reach her destination. Amen
I love this song, the words, the feeling it emulates.....just makes me break down. I feel for anyone who hurts inside like the words of this song speak of. So beautiful.
Seems like so many people treat him like an up and coming country music star, but he was already famous in the 90's for Hootie and the Blowfish. Maybe you have to be "old" to know that? I dunno. Hootie fans, where you at?

I could listen to your voice singing anything, anytime, anywhere. So much of your music, so many of your songs, and that voice especially, has made me sing-a-long with a mix of youthful summertime joy, with heartbroken tears, and a hopeful middle-aged mix of both. But what ever the season, situation, etc., you’ve been there for me, as I’m sure the other millions feel the same. We loved you then, we love you now, and hope to have you around for a thousand lifetimes. Don’t stop creating such works of Art, and especially don’t stop serenading us with that beautiful voice. Can’t thank you enough. ❤️❤️
This has got to be one of the most real, truly applies to life, songs of all time. "Blamed it on being young, but I was old enough to know, I know." Nailed me right between the eyes. Yes sir. Thanks again Darius, as always. Salute from Texas.
I'm Benge ,CHAMP, love this song champ, I can sing all your songs with guitar Billy In Johnson City Tennessee!, Champ were homeless across Newman's Bar in the Breezeway Champ, I'm getting a concert ticket for Cincinnati champ

Darius Rucker can sing as Hootie and the Blowfish …or he can sing country. I’m pretty sure there’s nothing he can’t sing. He’s a true legend and just amazing in my opinion. Much, much love Darius Rucker❤️💜💗
I’ll like to used this opportunity to say a very big thanks to you i really do appreciate your support how long have you been supporting my music career?
I am really hooked on this song right now, it's new to me...now I understand why so many love Darius....the lyrics are so honest & true, wow - would be nice if more guys would reveal the truth to a potential girlfriend in the beginning, before she sets her heart on him, then finds out about the stupid things he's done. I know we all learn and grow, and we all need a little grace extended our way.
Hello David, what’s going on …..ha, ha -don’t know why but this made me laugh, ok, maybe a little- I was expecting a reply by a female who may have experienced a jerk who lied in the beginning -I was wrong
This song couldn't describe my life better if it was intentional. Broken people can intend to commit and end up failing to. I am adopted. Its easier to love someone, harder to think someone loving you isn't conditional. I still struggle to open myself up and become vulnerable. Asshole dudes and dudes struggling to allow vulnerability aren't the same. The lyrics in this song aren't relating to assholes. Its relating to early abandonment and the struggle to accept love and not assume that love is conditional. JMHO 🤷♂
Amanda Ballard technically its darrius rucker from hootie and the blowfish hootie and the blowfish was just the bands name he never referred to himself as hootie
I've played this song over and over again. It's beautiful, you are beautiful Darius. Thank you for creating something special enough to get a reaction out of me every time I play it. Do you think she could love me anyway?
I'm only 36 but he has definitely become one of my all time favorites! I grew up with my mom listening to nothing but old school music which I believe allowed me the ability to know good music when I hear and feel it. I love country music the most and Darius Rucker, Luke Combs, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Toby Keith, Chris Stapleton, Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton and so many others have never let me down! Darius is truly gifted! Can feel it in my spirit when he sings! Thank you for sharing your God given gift with the world! I pray that one day I can attend one of his shows and meet him!!!
I absolutely love love love this song Darius! (whom I will forever call "Hootie" lol) I listen to it over and over and over and it moves me. I've always loved your voice. Didn't know you'd gone country until a friend sent me a couple of your tunes. Not a country music girl but I'm a fan who will listen to you sing it all...even country :) The words stir my emotions. Apart from the jealous line (not a jealous girl) well and I know who my Daddy is who game me my name...but otherwise this could so be me...and it could be my Honey. The lyrics are so relatable and reflect the human condition. Thank you for singing this song for us with such passion and heart Darius Rucker!
I’ve seen quite a handful of your comments on my posts and I just wanna appreciate those people whose wishes me good and encourages me and my team, I wouldn’t be the man I am today without people like you, God bless you.
This song reminds me how short life is and how there is so many things you can do with your life and how much I would have slowed down and lived the past slower if I could go back in time
I truly enjoy Darius when he uses his God given gift of music. Only the truly great songs can move a person, as well as their heart. So many of his songs do that. So thank you Darius, for sharing your music with us.
Beautiful Song... Those lyrics hit home in so many ways... Whether going through it or Being with someone going through all these emotions!!!! Your voice is Amazing!!! Also loved the video... Stay Strong & God Bless Mr. Darius Rucker!!!
You can definitely sense the influence of his old days with Hootie and the Blowfish in the overall sound... and the songwriters did a great job with the lyrics. A great fit for Darius.
What if I told you about my little nothing town The two room house where I came from The man that I got my name from I don't even know where he is now What if I told you sometimes I lose my faith? I wonder why someone like you would even talk to me What if I told you there's no fixing me Cause everybody's already tried Would you stay? Would you leave? I could wait, it'll all come out eventually If I told you all the stupid things I've done I'd blamed on being young But I was old enough to know, I know If I told you the mess that I can be When there's no one there to see Would you look the other way, cause you love me anyway? What if I told you I don't plan on staying here? My dreams are a million miles away And I know your family's gonna want you to stay You know what? I don't blame them So I'll say what I don't want to And I'll just pray you want what I do If I told you all the stupid things I've done I'd blamed on being young But I was old enough to know, I know If I told you the mess that I can be When there's no one there to see Could you look the other way cause you love me anyway? Cause you love me anyway So before we go any further here Better we turn into another year There's some things you probably don't want to hear But you have to If I told you sometimes I get jealous Sometimes I'm half crazy Would you say the hell with me, the hell with me? If I told you I barely know what love is But girl, if that's what this I don't want to let it slip away Could you love me anyway, please? Could you love me anyway? [x3]
Darius aka Hootie is Spectacular! I love all his genres and he has made a great contribution to Country! Keep writing and playing Mr. Darius Rucker you are a gifted musician!
Darius Rucker is such a talented guy. He also seems like a real and down to earth man. Solid all around. I have been a fan since Hootie, but I really think he found his niche as a country singer.
I'm in Australia & now that I've heard Darius Rucker I've found myself a new favourite singer. I have u constantly playing in my home & I have another CD in the car that starts as soon as I turn on the engine. I'm ur biggest fan! I would luv to be able to go to a live gig. 🇦🇺💖🎼👍

Jesse McKay he is aids to country but is at the very top and is making the most money out of all of them... the girls love him... he knows how to make that country pop
This song got me through a very, very tough time...halfway house after 3 months rehab.
4 years sober.
Thank you.

One of the most underrated male singers to have been in country music.

I feel like he wrote this song for me.
That's my mom's ringtone
Not just country music.
Loved Darius even when he was with his band.
This song hit me pretty deep. Made me think of my past. Darius Rucker is the man. Love his music. 💪
I AGREE ALL THE WAY...THIS MAN'S VOICE IS JUST UNBELIEVEABLE. LOVE DARIUS RUCKER!! GOD BLESS!!
I feel the same 💯 agreed
Awesome song lol
This song is about me and my man. Older white woman in love with amazing black man
He is younger than me. Happier than I have ever been in my life
I could hardly bear to listen to this song when I first encountered it. It pricks vulnerability in a way both painful, yet healing. Definitely one of the great songs sung by one of the greatest performers out there today.
I agree.....it hits some some emotions and failures and sparks what you want to be if opportunity arises.
I'm right there with you, girl. God bless you.
What a good lyrics I love this song from the beginning. How are you Melanieanderson?
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️❤❤❤
Stronger each time I listen
This song talks of unconditional love. I adore the way he confesses his faults up front. A man who can do this has the sweetest heart ever.
Believe it or not the good guys get shit on ALOT
Yeah
I agree with you!! Such vulnerability but such strength, maturity and masculinity.

We all go through tough things🧚♀️ but walking everyday to hold GOD closer than it is worth life for love worth it all💯🧚♀️

Amazing song, incredible lyrics. Beautiful music from this talented man continues! Thank you for the songs in my life Darius
Every once in a while you hear a very well written song by an excellent artist

This song is so beautiful. Hearing the vulnerability brought me to tears. He is such an amazing artist.
I'm into metal as im a drummer and rap...I just heard this song for the 3rd time and I came to tears! I see exactly what everyone is saying in this comment section...and it's a beautiful thing. Next girl I date I'm serious about, I'm sending this to her after the 3rd date. I will want her to understand being vulnerable I beautiful and I will want our thing to last and remain in honesty

I could listen to your voice singing anything, anytime, anywhere. So much of your music, so many of your songs, and that voice especially, has made me sing-a-long with a mix of youthful summertime joy, with heartbroken tears, and a hopeful middle-aged mix of both. But what ever the season, situation, etc., you’ve been there for me, as I’m sure the other millions feel the same. We loved you then, we love you now, and hope to have you around for a thousand lifetimes. Don’t stop creating such works of Art, and especially don’t stop serenading us with that beautiful voice. Can’t thank you enough. ❤️❤️
Absolutely!! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
This is a awesome song, it tells a deep story of so many lives, he is rocking it, I'm 49 and black, love all the songs
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
U are so good in your music I ❤ love your voice and your voice
Are you interested in white woman older than you. Send me pictures
Deep story of love. I want that. Never had it
This has got to be one of the most real, truly applies to life, songs of all time. "Blamed it on being young, but I was old enough to know, I know." Nailed me right between the eyes. Yes sir. Thanks again Darius, as always. Salute from Texas.
Loved his voice from the first time I heard him.
When he was with hootie and the blowfish. Let her cry.
@Judith Kittleson me too!😂😍
@darius rucker fake

Yeah, Darius is surely blessed with a magical voice for sure. And I'd say he's done alright with it so far eh?
Who's still listening 2024❤

This is the first song that my boyfriend, now husband, said "this was OUR song"..been madly in love ever since!.
And who better to sing it to you. A true gentleman and a wonderful performer. Was 6 feet away at the recent Hootie gig in Glasgow, amazing energy

Thanks for your lovely comment I really appreciate.
that is so wonderful and I hope and pray it is always that way for you both. God bless!!
Same with my gf. 7 years now
The hardest ones to love are the ones who need it the most as long as you feel the love that is being given to you will make you a better person
So very true! 😭💔
This is Not Your Phone
love this quote
Yeah...
Nice copy paste
His voice is rich and deep. A throaty, raspy deep sound that I love. Heard he's country. Either way, like his sound.

No one has to speak for Darius, his work speaks for itself.
Everyone can relate to this amazing song somehow! We are all perfectly imperfect.
Yeah he is a really talented singer reminds me of my late wife 😥 really miss her
@Darius Rucker .. you are fake… stop it!

Hi dear, I was on my scrolling mode when I saw your comment and was moved to send a text to you hope you don't find it pestering..?
Darius Rucker can sing as Hootie and the Blowfish …or he can sing country. I’m pretty sure there’s nothing he can’t sing. He’s a true legend and just amazing in my opinion. Much, much love Darius Rucker❤️💜💗
Thanks dear i really do appreciate I love you too ❤
I’ll like to used this opportunity to say a very big thanks to you i really do appreciate your support how long have you been supporting my music career?
@@dariusruckerprivatemail7287 OH, WOW!! Thank you for your reply and kind words. I’ve been a long time fan… since Hootie and The Blowfish❤️❤️❤️
Been following him since Hootie and the Blowfish and it's 2018 and I'm telling you his sweet voice carries me
Kristy Moffitt........ This man is musical magician..........Miss the Hootie and the blow fish days but I will take this any day of the week
I loved him then as well, love him now and will love him forever 😊💕💕
Ahhh!!!! That makes me a little more familiar of him. What a discovery for this Aussie. Such a smooth voice. AND very cute.
I love love love this song
you gonna go to the concert this year?
I am really hooked on this song right now, it's new to me...now I understand why so many love Darius....the lyrics are so honest & true, wow - would be nice if more guys would reveal the truth to a potential girlfriend in the beginning, before she sets her heart on him, then finds out about the stupid things he's done. I know we all learn and grow, and we all need a little grace extended our way.
Hello Susan
Hello David, what’s going on …..ha, ha -don’t know why but this made me laugh, ok, maybe a little- I was expecting a reply by a female who may have experienced a jerk who lied in the beginning -I was wrong
This song couldn't describe my life better if it was intentional. Broken people can intend to commit and end up failing to. I am adopted. Its easier to love someone, harder to think someone loving you isn't conditional. I still struggle to open myself up and become vulnerable. Asshole dudes and dudes struggling to allow vulnerability aren't the same. The lyrics in this song aren't relating to assholes. Its relating to early abandonment and the struggle to accept love and not assume that love is conditional. JMHO 🤷♂
There’s something so special about Darius Rucker, I always enjoy his music when it comes out. Big fan!! ❤️

I was on my scrolling mode when I saw your comment and was moved to send a text, hope you are having a good day?
I've NEVER heard ANYTHING that Darius Rucker, from the beginning of his career, has done that wasn't FABULOUS.
Scott Powers Exactly!!!!
Scott Powers that is Hootie from Hootie and the blow fish! He just went solo a few years ago
Scott Powers the man is magical!
Scott Powers he’s perfect!!
Amanda Ballard technically its darrius rucker from hootie and the blowfish hootie and the blowfish was just the bands name he never referred to himself as hootie
I've played this song over and over again. It's beautiful, you are beautiful Darius. Thank you for creating something special enough to get a reaction out of me every time I play it. Do you think she could love me anyway?
Jamie JDJ
ofcourse she could.
Jamie JDJ 👏
Stacy Robey f jii
I'm only 36 but he has definitely become one of my all time favorites! I grew up with my mom listening to nothing but old school music which I believe allowed me the ability to know good music when I hear and feel it. I love country music the most and Darius Rucker, Luke Combs, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Toby Keith, Chris Stapleton, Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton and so many others have never let me down! Darius is truly gifted! Can feel it in my spirit when he sings! Thank you for sharing your God given gift with the world! I pray that one day I can attend one of his shows and meet him!!!
Lose the Luke's and u gotta playlist
Did you know that he was also the lead singer of a rock band in the 90s called Hootie and the blowfish?
Check out @Jackson Dean "if I don't come back, don't come lookin'" you won't be disappointed ❣
This song twists around my heart and gives me chills. I love Darius Rucker his voice and passion I relate at a gut level.
Toney
You and me both

Thanks for your lovely comment I really appreciate.
Hello Gwyn Haller how are you doing today ?
I absolutely love love love this song Darius! (whom I will forever call "Hootie" lol) I listen to it over and over and over and it moves me. I've always loved your voice. Didn't know you'd gone country until a friend sent me a couple of your tunes. Not a country music girl but I'm a fan who will listen to you sing it all...even country :) The words stir my emotions. Apart from the jealous line (not a jealous girl) well and I know who my Daddy is who game me my name...but otherwise this could so be me...and it could be my Honey. The lyrics are so relatable and reflect the human condition. Thank you for singing this song for us with such passion and heart Darius Rucker!
Beautiful song🎶 really reminds me of my late wife 😥
I’ve seen quite a handful of your comments on my posts and I just wanna appreciate those people whose wishes me good and encourages me and my team, I wouldn’t be the man I am today without people like you, God bless you.
Absolutely
I love this song what a perfect voice. How are you Aprille ?
This song reminds me how short life is and how there is so many things you can do with your life and how much I would have slowed down and lived the past slower if I could go back in time
Yes

It's never too late to live the life you want. It's out there ~ Go get it! Best wishes
Dude. that blew me away what you said. I may just steal that as my new life motto if you don't mind.
Still watching 2024🥰
he touched my heart with his humbliness when he was talking about the loss of his mom.. i believe it was on cbs.
Absolutely he's possibly one of the greatest singers too bad he's not as popular as Jason Aldean or Luke Bryan
And when you get down there's only one way to go up also sorry about your mom I'm sure she was a great lady
Dariuscruckerofficial@gmail.com
I truly enjoy Darius when he uses his God given gift of music. Only the truly great songs can move a person, as well as their heart. So many of his songs do that. So thank you Darius, for sharing your music with us.
Well said.... I couldn't agree more.
Not god given, he worked his butt to get where he is. He gets the credit for that, not some imaginary made up story.
Beautiful Song... Those lyrics hit home in so many ways... Whether going through it or Being with someone going through all these emotions!!!! Your voice is Amazing!!! Also loved the video... Stay Strong & God Bless Mr. Darius Rucker!!!
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
Love rises above the bad. It covers a multitude of sins. Love iss spiritual. Not in the flesh. We have two body's. The earthy and inward spiritual
I absolutely LOVE Darius Rucker..whether it is country music or Hootie and the Blowfish, he is undeniably talented and humble!
He has dabbled in other music too. He can sing any style!
I can't stop hitting replay
Wow, I just love the way he sings about his faults and The love it takes for someone to love you for who you are.
Dariuscruckerofficial@gmail.com
This is when music still sounds good. How are you Kathy ?
OMgosh this song saved my life. Your beautiful soothing voice was in my head and heart for two weeks straight. Still is.... Thank you Darius
The most real song I've heard in years.
You can definitely sense the influence of his old days with Hootie and the Blowfish in the overall sound... and the songwriters did a great job with the lyrics. A great fit for Darius.
His voice and these lyrics are amazing.
We all have that “ONE” person we would Love to send this to…. 😢
LOVE YOU HOOTIE!!!!! ❤
What if I told you about my little nothing town
The two room house where I came from
The man that I got my name from
I don't even know where he is now
What if I told you sometimes I lose my faith?
I wonder why someone like you would even talk to me
What if I told you there's no fixing me
Cause everybody's already tried
Would you stay? Would you leave?
I could wait, it'll all come out eventually
If I told you all the stupid things I've done
I'd blamed on being young
But I was old enough to know, I know
If I told you the mess that I can be
When there's no one there to see
Would you look the other way, cause you love me anyway?
What if I told you I don't plan on staying here?
My dreams are a million miles away
And I know your family's gonna want you to stay
You know what? I don't blame them
So I'll say what I don't want to
And I'll just pray you want what I do
If I told you all the stupid things I've done
I'd blamed on being young
But I was old enough to know, I know
If I told you the mess that I can be
When there's no one there to see
Could you look the other way cause you love me anyway?
Cause you love me anyway
So before we go any further here
Better we turn into another year
There's some things you probably don't want to hear
But you have to
If I told you sometimes I get jealous
Sometimes I'm half crazy
Would you say the hell with me, the hell with me?
If I told you I barely know what love is
But girl, if that's what this I don't want to let it slip away
Could you love me anyway, please?
Could you love me anyway? [x3]
Gary Connelly you the real MVP
Thank you for the textsong. :)

Darius Rucker is an amazing artist who can do any kind of music! One of my favorite country music artists.❤️
June, 2021 and I'm hearing this song for the first time...so so so beautiful!!
Thanks so much for your kind and lovely words ❣️
I love this song, this man is just pouring his heart out, wishing this woman would love him anyways, with all his imperfections.. ❤❤❤
this is just wooow this has to be one his best. This song really needs to part of country's top 20 or top 10 at least
Kyle Reed or just number 1
Darius aka Hootie is Spectacular! I love all his genres and he has made a great contribution to Country! Keep writing and playing Mr. Darius Rucker you are a gifted musician!
Darius Rucker is such a talented guy. He also seems like a real and down to earth man. Solid all around. I have been a fan since Hootie, but I really think he found his niche as a country singer.
I'm in Australia & now that I've heard Darius Rucker I've found myself a new favourite singer.
I have u constantly playing in my home & I have another CD in the car that starts as soon as I turn on the engine.
I'm ur biggest fan!
I would luv to be able to go to a live gig.
🇦🇺💖🎼👍
Thanks so much for the comments and support you’ve showed me towards my music , I’m so grateful and happy to check on you ! You can leave me a text on my mail :
(Dariusruckermusic1@outlook.com) And let me know more about you❤️🇱🇷🎶🔊
just simple music and a soothing voice full of truth, need more of that in this world.
I'm from Birmingham England and I love American country. I came across darius rucker about 2 years ago his voice it's brilliant.
Graham Francis Do you like Luke Bryan?
Jesse McKay he's OK yeah. I'm a big fan of brooks and Dunn as well. 1 of the first country bands I remember when I was a kid
Jesse McKay he is aids to country but is at the very top and is making the most money out of all of them... the girls love him... he knows how to make that country pop
Graham Francis ayyye brummie too
Good choice in music and hopefully soccer. UTV!?!
We all make mistakes in our life but you love no matter what or what stupid things we do we love and that’s what makes life worth living ❤❤
This is literally my favorite song ❤❤ I love him!!!
Briane Brecht can
I agree with you 100% Briane. It's just beautiful!!!!!
Briane Brecht yes its an amazing song
