A shiver goes up my spine everytime I hear this song - and I challenge anyone to say there isn't a song out there somewhere that doesn't throw you back to a certain time or someone.
I fell in love with this song the very 1st time I heard it- it hit me right in my feelings that I hadn't thought of in a very long time. I've now been happily married for 30yrs, but there's always, for most of us, we have a someone that was the one who got away. This song brings him back to my memory & my heart, regardless of how much I adore my hubby. I think its one of the ALL-TIME BEST written country songs- and it had to be written for Trisha to sing, bc her voice just blows these memories up even bigger. Cannot imagine ANYONE EVER singing it as well as Trisha, let alone even as well as she sang it. I don't think 90s radio ever gave it the justice it deserved. Its just one of those one in a million songs, and she's def one of those one in a million singers with the powerful emotions & vocals she adds to this song. If anyone else sang it- I don't think any of us who love it, woukd feel the same about it if it hadn't been Trisha who recorded it. Not to forget- whoever wrote it- deserves the same mad respect Trisha does. Its just one of my top five faves of the 90s. We do have great music today, with great voices singing- but in my humble opinion- NO SONG will EVER compare to this one. Even all these yrs later- it still has the same affect on us as it did the 1st time we heard, by reading the comments, I see I'm not alone in cherishing this absolute gem of a song. You're one of THE BEST of the 90s Trisha- and wish radio still played your music. especially this one....... goosebumps all over, like its the 1st time all over again. You're simply UH-MAZING!!!! #TrueYearwoodFans ❤
No artist or song nails the sentiment of a song taking you back to relive those treasured moments in time. Music is how we mark our lives. Thank you Trisha for summing it up so beautifully.
Actually, it was Hugh Prestwood who should be thanked "for summing it up" when he wrote the song. I can't think of anyone else who could have sung it any more beautifully than Trisha Yearwood did, but without songwriters, singers wouldn't even have the tune to hum, let alone the words to sing. (I am so glad H.P. got T.Y. to sing this one.)
NO ONE.... and i mean NO ONE can tell a story through a song like Trisha Yearwood... Flawless is an understatement.... No SONG.... and I mean NO SONG has ever been better written to the story of what music does to the soul.... like this one.

It's been around 20 years since I last heard this song. I couldn't tell you what the lyrics were. I couldn't tell you now what the lyrics are. Yet, as the song opened, I sang aloud with every word. So even if I'd forgotten all about it; The song remembered when.
Trisha Yearwood brought a level of class to country music that was uncommon at the time, very grown up, elegant, artistic and literate music for adults...one of the finest artists with such a body of work. Great stuff

I was married to my husband 15 years when this song came out. It made me realize that every day we had a song. If we heard one driving we would pull over and dance on the side of the road, if there was music we were dancing. we were married for forty two years, and we still danced. We went to a George Strait concert and we got up, went up stairs and we were dancing to my husbands very favorite song. I lost him to cancer but I had the music on in the house all day and night so he could still hear it. and every once in a while I could see his fingers move to the music. I didn't want hospice. We weren't perfect, but we had a lot of make-up songs to fit the bill..
Now I remember why I love listening to this song in a daily basis. The relation that you and your partner had was one of the most rarest in the world nowadays. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for sharing your story.
The song does remember when, but so does the heart. It's these memories that keep me going, even though he's left this life on earth. I know he waits for me. I fell in love with him at first sight, when I was 16. He asked me to marry him before we even went on our second date, and I told him yes. He died just a bit less than two months before our 37th wedding anniversary. He still made my heart give a little jump whenever I saw him. Yes, my heart remembers when.
Ahhh Ms. Sandra Daughtridge, now, I'm tearing up with you too.... He sounds like he was such a cool & brave Good Dude... I sincerely hope this finds you well & healthy, in April of 2020. Your guy wouldn't accept you to give up, much less quit. There's NO QUIT in your DNA. Ms, you're NOT hard wired for that. Respectfully, Santiago Murillo.
What a beautiful love story! I believe in love at first sight because I experienced it myself. So special to marry your first love. You were blessed indeed!
Sandra, God is good, and because of JESUS sacrifice ... We all have real hope. You can count on your heart to know that your Love Will. Be Waiting on you to join him someday . God Bless. 😌
Don't comment on songs very often but this is PERFECT. The voice the musicians, I have no idea who wrote this, but I think most of us have lived this. Its so good that it gives you CHILLS.
Hello👋 Shelley. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
This song is so beautiful and so very true! I have survived brain aneurysm rupture and stroke and have some memory loss but every time I hear a song, the song remembers when. This song is special to me because it reminds me of one of the best times of my life!
"I was standing at the counter, I was waiting for the change, when I heard that old familiar music start. It was like a lighted match had been tossed into my soul, it like a dam had broken in my heart" From the moment I heard those words, I knew that the perfect song had been written about what music does to the soul!
nathan weimer I should thank Jim? I think he's moved on..Ha! BTW, do you remember when this song came out? Back in 1993?! Time flies, eh? Back then I thought I'd stay 'Forever Young'..but that's whole `nother song. LOL
I love how this song can thrust me back to 1990 something 😊 someone below commented this is a masterpiece. I agree. 30 years later I’m still moved by Trisha’s sound.
I was in a hardware store waiting to pay for my goods and this song came over the loud speakers. From the first note I recognized it though I hadn't heard it in years. I teared up. Came home and looked for this video, and I don''t remember ever seeing it before. Trisha's eyes are the kind that you can drown in. Garth Brooks is a lucky man, to have such a soulful voice to wake up to every day.
Hugh Prestwood wrote this one, and the first time I played it on KTMO in 1993, I just leaned back in the chair and started the next song and all but lost it. Thanks to Hugh and Trisha for making it happen. Some things we bury indeed, do rise again.
You are SO wrong - I was just about to write a comment to thank RJ for mentioning Hugh Prestwood!! The song and the songwriter are especially important and respected in country music -- that's why the TV show Nashville started and kept coming back to The Bluebird Cafe, the most famous of the many venues in Nashville where songwriters >must< play only their original songs. There is something magical about hearing the song you love sung by the songwriter who wrote it! (At the BB they often tell stories about the writing of the song -- it's magical.)
I absolutely love Trisha Yearwood's voice and song choices. She obviously takes time to pick songs with deep lyrical meaning. Hugh Prestwood hit this one out of the park with his writing, and Trisha's voice made this a country classic. Wow.
In my opinion this is one of the greatest songs ever written and sung by one of the greatest voices ever. It has haunted me from the very first time I heard it and is one that evokes raw emotion in me.
Just love this song. The lyrics are so true. Every day I hear a song and it takes me back to a place in my life, somtimes good and sometimes not so good. I'm okay with that though. That was life at that time and most of the memories are good.
This song speaks directly to the intense heart gripping power of a single....song. It can cause a dam full of backed up emotions to gush out with sudden intensity. It’s true- some things we bury, are bound to rise again.💕💕
This came through in my Spotify rotation.....this is an incredibly well written and performed song that I've not heard in years. The beauty of music is being able to live with it forever.
🥀One of the most Beautiful song's I've ever heard from Trisha it's a timeless classic story teller and she done a powerful but soothing way of expressing her feelings. I can feel her lyrics! That's a true artist🥀☝️🥀
It's a beautiful "love" song and wonderfully performed. But much more than that, it's the best illustration I have encountered, over decades of listening and learning, of the great power of music to transcend barriers: even those of time itself. Kudos to all those responsible for this great performance.
Songs so define an era or a feeling...this one has taken me to so many memories of so many songs ---where I was and who I was with---decades and decades ago. This one gets to me every time. It is so beautifully written and this version with the balanced strings enhances her perfect delivery. Hearing her sing it in person is on my lifetime bucket list!
Hello👋 Charlotte. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Just had somebody else come up to me and tell me "You look so much like Trisha Yearwood". I have heard that about a dozen times through the last 20 years. As we both get older I still hear it. Such a beautiful voice.

From the very first chord, Trisha transports you back to the very moment in time when your heart was broken. The time when you last remember happienss and love. In the lyrics you find yourself walking through each experience over in your mind and if for only a second in time you catch yourself asking, "why?" For some, it could be as short a few weeks but in some cases like mine you could be 25 years hindsight and still wondering the same question. Yes, pull your boots on but "Remember when"
Lyrics: I was standing at the counter I was waitin' for the change When I heard that old familiar music start It was like a lighted match Had been tossed into my soul It was like a dam had broken in my heart After taking every detour Gettin' lost and losin' track So that even if I wanted I could not find my way back After drivin' out the memory of the way things might have been After I'd forgotten all about us The song remembers when We were rollin' through the Rockies We were up above the clouds When a station out of Jackson played that song And it seemed to fit the moment And the moment seemed to freeze When we turned the music up and sang along And there was a God in Heaven And the world made perfect sense We were young and were in love and we were easy to convince We were headed straight for Eden It was just around the bend And though I had forgotten all about it The song remembers when I guess something must've happened And we must've said goodbye And my heart must have been broken Though I can't recall just why The song remembers when Well for all the miles between us And for all the time that's passed You would think I haven't gotten very far And I hope my hasty heart Will forgive me just this once If I stop to wonder how on earth you are But that's just a lot of water Underneath the bridge, I've burned And there's no use in backtracking around corners I have turned Still, I guess some things we bury Are just bound to rise again And even if the whole world had forgotten The song remembers when Yeah, even if the whole world has forgotten The song remembers when
I'm 68 now and have saved up lots of memories about her (not Trisha BTW - - my significant other) on my playlist. Trisha hit this nail on the head. So many of those songs can take me right back to a moment, a place, the perfume or cigarette smoke, a room on the Vegas strip, . . . . . . at 68 they'll still make me laugh or even put a tear in my eye. Three chords and the truth will get you every time when it's from the heart.
Always loved this one. Music is a trigger. And this tune reminds me of my 1st love.. 54 now ..I was 20 then ..he is married and lives in a different country. I am married too and have been for over 20 years..but we shared a lot of music...and a tune can bring me right back there...Thank you, Trisha...Kelly
I'm 20 years old and just heard this song for the first time - it gave me the chills. Wow. Somebody said "the song remembers when" was a good song from under the comments section of a TH-cam video of of L.A Freeway by Guy Clarke, and boy am I glad I listened to it in the end. I feel like I could lie in a hammock under the summer sun and hum this tune for hours...
This will always take me back to a lost relationship. The emotional lyrical content is already great, but add Trisha's vocals and it's just a heartbreaking killer of a song.

"...We were rollin' through the Rockies We were up above the clouds When a station out of Jackson played that song And it seemed to fit the moment And the moment seemed to freeze When we turned the music up and sang along And there was a God in Heaven And the world made perfect sense We were young and were in love and we were easy to convince We were headed straight for Eden It was just around the bend And though I had forgotten all about it The song remembers when..." Those lyrics go right to my soul.
I'm not usually a country music fan but i heard this song on The Voice tonight, liked it immediately and wanted to hear the original. This was worth looking for! Musically it's very ry good but those lyrics! As others have mentioned music has amazing time-traveling power. Some songs really do open up a fresh/new old memory. One for the playlist!
The first time I heard this song, I had to pull off the road and listen. I think my heart broke all over again for a love lost years before. To this day, I can't hear this song without mourning that lost love. Thank you for a song that always stirs my heart. 😢
Oh the memories this song holds in my heart. Thank you for coming Houston. It was a 25+ year dream that I never thought would materialize. Thank you both for sharing your gifts with the world. We cannot thank you enough. God bless you all.
Can't believe it was this far back. Songs like this define my first love in high school. It carried into the early 2000's until it died, but songs like this put me right back in it. Heartbreaking but at the same time, I've never felt so much since. Music just doesn't have this kind of power anymore, mostly because artists just aren't as good. It's not really their fault; the best have already happened.
I was standing at the counter I was waitin' for the change When I heard that old familiar music start It was like a lighted match Had been tossed into my soul It was like a dam had broken in my heart After taking every detour Gettin' lost and losin' track So that even if I wanted I could not find my way back After drivin' out the memory of the way things might have been After I'd forgotten all about us The song remembers when We were rollin' through the Rockies We were up above the clouds When a station out of Jackson played that song And it seemed to fit the moment And the moment seemed to freeze When we turned the music up and sang along And there was a God in Heaven And the world made perfect sense We were young and were in love and we were easy to convince We were headed straight for Eden It was just around the bend And though I had forgotten all about it The song remembers when I guess something must've happened And we must've said goodbye And my heart must have been broken Though I can't recall just why The song remembers when Well for all the miles between us And for all the time that's passed You would think I haven't gotten very far And I hope my hasty heart Will forgive me just this once If I stop to wonder how on earth you are But that's just a lot of water Underneath the bridge I've burned And there's no use in back tracking around corners I have turned Still I guess some things we bury Are just bound to rise again And even if the whole world had forgotten The song remembers when Yeah, even if the whole world has forgotten The song remembers when Love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪
I wonder where you are, but listen to the Words of this Song because they are dedicated to you and the WONDERFUL LIFE WE SHARED. YOU WERE TAKEN MANY YEARS AGO. BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER ALL THE LOVE ❤ WE SHARED .I WILL NEVER STOP WANTING TO BE WITH YOU REMEMBER ME KEITH ALWAYS. KNOW I STILL LOVE YO❤❤❤❤U
A week ago I was at an event and the song Can't help falling in love came on by Elvis. It was my wedding song just over 6 years ago. My husband and I are having a very difficult time in our marriage. That song came on and it took everything I had to not cry. Remembering all the good times, and us dancing to that song at our reception. Songs do hold a memory in our hearts and minds.

The song remembers yes how long do we remember?some remember the good times and some remember the bad . But as we live life , I think it’s best if we recalled a life of happiness and love with disappointment ,to rise us back to happiness peacefully with kindness and love
Hello👋 Sandy. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
❤....wow.... what a moment.... to stop and think.... and i have never forgotten.... and i never will.... even if the whole world does.... thiis being a beautiful song.... and one of the best singers of all time.... love....❤
Anyone who feels music as their foundation to recall memories understands why I have a special love for Trisha. As I listened to her sing about life it always takes me to the times of my life. The song remembers when. I've always been a little bit jealous of Garth.
this song is absolutely true, ive been married to my wife for 25 years, and as we were riding in the car, a song came on, and omg, memories of past love came back, then i looked at my Annette and realized just how lucky i am to have her.the song did remember when.
this song always spoke to me, since i heard it for the first time at 8 years old. Now that i listen to it again i realize the depth and truth of the lyrics. there are so many songs that bring back memories both good and painful.
I know this may sound corny, but it is true. I am not a country music fan but my girlfriend at the time was. I am not a fan of dancing either. I had just parked the car and we were going into the store as a big pickup truck parked near us and this song was playing. I grabbed my girlfriend and started to dance with her in the parking lot. The couple noticed us and cranked it up for us. She loved it and this song will always mean a lot to me. Thanks Trisha
For all of us have been there, that is a very powerful song. I must admit that knocked me on my ass for all. It's worth. I love you my baby and always will
Can music possibly be any better? Through the mercy of Almighty and Good God, it was all recorded and a kind TH-camr posted it for us to relive, savor, wonder at, over and over. Simply amazing
Tonight is the first time I've heard this song as far as I recall. I kind of lost it for a bit. The song remembers when and it reminded me who. An off-and-on relationship they could just never seem to work its way out. I guess our song hasn't finished writing itself.
This is a song for the ages! God’s words flowed through Hugh Presswood’s hands. I still get chills,when l hear this. After all these years, you can’t get better than this.
Dislikes are stupid. Trisha is one of the best female country singers out there. She's got a little bit of a twang, and she definitely knows how to turn a note.
Hello👋 Cecilia. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Music starts from the time before you were even a thought. Meaning the night you are conceived. And progresses from their into your adulthood. Going through stages in our lives that's all. Music will also most likely be there at your funeral service as people feel the need to hear a gospel song. It's just there depending on the occassion. And every occassion deserves a song!
What a beautiful song, the words break your heart and Tricia's voice singing is so poignant. She has one of the loveliest voices I have ever heard, in my opinion, she is the best.
I love her music, the tone of her voice, she has such great insight into the songs she chooses. On a bus to St Cloud reminds me how even though that person isn't in your life everyday, they are still in your heart. And the mind plays tricks on you so you see them everywhere, even on a bus.
Such a pure voice! This is what a vocalist sounds like, not a bunch of remixing and filtering to make them sound better. Simply Beautiful with amazing lyrics.

+Kelly Mondor Hell yeah. There are three or four songs that are like a punch to the gut when I hear them on the radio.
this song does
That is exactly what a good song should do. Its effect on you should last a lifetime. That is the magic of music.
@@karenh4012 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
💘
This has to be one of my all time favourite songs - it tells a story that most of us have lived through - it's pure, real and timeless.
In my personal opinion one of the most magnificent voices in all of country music and music alike. ❤❤❤ Trisha Yearwood
Except when she screeches like most other female country singer
She's even better live.
Sometimes we never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory
Truer words have never been spoken
Oh so beautifully put. From Ireland 🇮🇪 2022
That comment is poetry
So profound!

#TrueYearwoodFans ❤
I totally get this 💯
The song was written by Hugh Prestwood, who also wrote “Asking us to Dance”, for Kathy Mattea
Favorite line: "and even if the whole world has forgotten - the song remembers when." Simply beautiful! 💖 😢
No artist or song nails the sentiment of a song taking you back to relive those treasured moments in time. Music is how we mark our lives. Thank you Trisha for summing it up so beautifully.

Omg yess no one can tell a story like Trisha she sings so effortlessly and sounds so beautiful doing it she's very sweet too met her in January
You must not have been around as long as I have been. There have been a number of truly great story tellers....Jim Croce, Harry Chapin, Patsy Cline...

@@trishayearwood2704 Thank you for your music. One of my favorites songs-- from an old Air Force vet.
I am a songwriter. but I think this is one of the greatest country songs ever written. and Tricia does it beautifully.
I agree though it is very hard to get through.. Don't try this one even I can't through it most times
I'm a song writer, too.
I am not a song writer but I can relate to the meaning of the song
I'm a songwriter too. Where's the food tent?

I am a songwriter too, and this is one of the best songs ever done in any category. Only those who have lived this totally get it. Of which I am one.
It's been around 20 years since I last heard this song.
I couldn't tell you what the lyrics were. I couldn't tell you now what the lyrics are.
Yet, as the song opened, I sang aloud with every word.
So even if I'd forgotten all about it;
The song remembered when.
If I could love your comment I would.. Spot on what happens to me!
I went to music school with Trisha...and I've never heard her sing a wrong note...she has a cry in her voice and is a flawless singer.
You are so lucky to have known her!! I love her she's absolutely amazing!
Can I ask what school it was?? How lucky you are!
Trisha Yearwood brought a level of class to country music that was uncommon at the time, very grown up, elegant, artistic and literate music for adults...one of the finest artists with such a body of work. Great stuff

I've never been able to get through this song without crying.
What I love about this song is that evokes that sense of yesterday and blends it to now. Such a voice and a lovely sentiment indeed!
"Even if the whole world has forgotten, the song remembers when."
I was married to my husband 15 years when this song came out. It made me realize that every day we had a song. If we heard one driving we would pull over and dance on the side of the road, if there was music we were dancing. we were married for forty two years, and we still danced. We went to a George Strait concert and we got up, went up stairs and we were dancing to my husbands very favorite song. I lost him to cancer but I had the music on in the house all day and night so he could still hear it. and every once in a while I could see his fingers move to the music. I didn't want hospice. We weren't perfect, but we had a lot of make-up songs to fit the bill..
😢😔😊
im so sorry for your loss
Now I remember why I love listening to this song in a daily basis. The relation that you and your partner had was one of the most rarest in the world nowadays. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for sharing your story.
It was and is something very different...that is what made us great
Looks like you and your husband wrote a song of your very own and it was beautiful. Thank you for that imagery. What a love you had x
The song does remember when, but so does the heart. It's these memories that keep me going, even though he's left this life on earth. I know he waits for me. I fell in love with him at first sight, when I was 16. He asked me to marry him before we even went on our second date, and I told him yes. He died just a bit less than two months before our 37th wedding anniversary. He still made my heart give a little jump whenever I saw him. Yes, my heart remembers when.
Sandra Daughtridge what a beautiful comment.
Ahhh Ms. Sandra Daughtridge, now, I'm tearing up with you too.... He sounds like he was such a cool & brave Good Dude... I sincerely hope this finds you well & healthy, in April of 2020. Your guy wouldn't accept you to give up, much less quit. There's NO QUIT in your DNA. Ms, you're NOT hard wired for that. Respectfully, Santiago Murillo.
What a beautiful love story! I believe in love at first sight because I experienced it myself. So special to marry your first love. You were blessed indeed!
Sandra, God is good, and because of JESUS sacrifice ...
We all have real hope.
You can count on your heart to know that your Love
Will. Be Waiting on you to join him someday . God Bless. 😌
Hello Sandra
Don't comment on songs very often but this is PERFECT. The voice the musicians, I have no idea who wrote this, but I think most of us have lived this. Its so good that it gives you CHILLS.
She's has one one the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. This is one of my all time favorite Trisha yearwood songs. Along with Georgia rain.
Hands down my favorite song by Trisha. That strong voice gives me chills
Hello👋 Shelley. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
This song gets me every time! Trisha’s voice is amazing and she is a one of a kind story teller. The lyrics touch my ♥️ heart
One of the most beautiful songs Trisha ever sang.
The perfect singer singing one of the best songs ever written. A perfect combination.
Hello there Mary nice meeting you here
Absolutely 💯
I lost my wife at a early age of 33 tears old. God came and took her home. I'm 61 now and my Song stills Remembers When.
I so very sorry in my heart for you Charles...God bless you.
Jay Sutphin thank you. I knew her my whole life and was my best friend too.She is alive and well in my heart till mine stops.
*****
thank you John. felt as the air I breath was take from me. I can say I thought and wished I would have died with her.
I also lost my first wife when she was only 33. I am now 59 and I agree with you. The song remembers when as do I.
charles hayes
This song is so beautiful and so very true! I have survived brain aneurysm rupture and stroke and have some memory loss but every time I hear a song, the song remembers when. This song is special to me because it reminds me of one of the best times of my life!
"I was standing at the counter, I was waiting for the change, when I heard that old familiar music start. It was like a lighted match had been tossed into my soul, it like a dam had broken in my heart"
From the moment I heard those words, I knew that the perfect song had been written about what music does to the soul!
you named it. you own it. great way to put it.
Kinda neat I was too
@nathan weimer
Thanks very much. Three yrs later..LOL. Still a very powerful song!
I must say thank you too cause it took each of us...I just get More credit then I sometime deserve....
nathan weimer
I should thank Jim?
I think he's moved on..Ha!
BTW, do you remember when this song came out? Back in 1993?! Time flies, eh? Back then I thought I'd stay 'Forever Young'..but that's whole `nother song. LOL
I love how this song can thrust me back to 1990 something 😊 someone below commented this is a masterpiece. I agree. 30 years later I’m still moved by Trisha’s sound.
I was in a hardware store waiting to pay for my goods and this song came over the loud speakers. From the first note I recognized it though I hadn't heard it in years. I teared up. Came home and looked for this video, and I don''t remember ever seeing it before. Trisha's eyes are the kind that you can drown in. Garth Brooks is a lucky man, to have such a soulful voice to wake up to every day.
Absolutely stunning! This song breaks my heart every single time I hear it! It reminds me of my ex-husband and I. Thank you, Trisha!
Hello Carol
Hugh Prestwood wrote this one, and the first time I played it on KTMO in 1993, I just leaned back in the chair and started the next song and all but lost it. Thanks to Hugh and Trisha for making it happen. Some things we bury indeed, do rise again.
You are SO wrong - I was just about to write a comment to thank RJ for mentioning Hugh Prestwood!! The song and the songwriter are especially important and respected in country music -- that's why the TV show Nashville started and kept coming back to The Bluebird Cafe, the most famous of the many venues in Nashville where songwriters >must< play only their original songs. There is something magical about hearing the song you love sung by the songwriter who wrote it! (At the BB they often tell stories about the writing of the song -- it's magical.)
I absolutely love Trisha Yearwood's voice and song choices. She obviously takes time to pick songs with deep lyrical meaning. Hugh Prestwood hit this one out of the park with his writing, and Trisha's voice made this a country classic. Wow.
In my opinion this is one of the greatest songs ever written and sung by one of the greatest voices ever. It has haunted me from the very first time I heard it and is one that evokes raw emotion in me.
Absolutely 💯
Me too Haunting
Me tooooo!
one of the most amazing voices of our time. i wish she were doing more music like this.
Just love this song. The lyrics are so true. Every day I hear a song and it takes me back to a place in my life, somtimes good and sometimes not so good. I'm okay with that though. That was life at that time and most of the memories are good.
This song speaks directly to the intense heart gripping power of a single....song. It can cause a dam full of backed up emotions to gush out with sudden intensity. It’s true- some things we bury, are bound to rise again.💕💕
Hello👋 dear. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
This came through in my Spotify rotation.....this is an incredibly well written and performed song that I've not heard in years. The beauty of music is being able to live with it forever.
Amazing how one song can bring back a ton of memories
🥀One of the most Beautiful song's I've ever heard from Trisha it's a timeless classic story teller and she done a powerful but soothing way of expressing her feelings. I can feel her lyrics! That's a true artist🥀☝️🥀
Thank goodness! Now I know I’m not the only one who feels the meaning of this lovely song at the deepest level, especially when it’s sung this well!
It's a beautiful "love" song and wonderfully performed. But much more than that, it's the best illustration I have encountered, over decades of listening and learning, of the great power of music to transcend barriers: even those of time itself. Kudos to all those responsible for this great performance.
Songs so define an era or a feeling...this one has taken me to so many memories of so many songs ---where I was and who I was with---decades and decades ago. This one gets to me every time. It is so beautifully written and this version with the balanced strings enhances her perfect delivery. Hearing her sing it in person is on my lifetime bucket list!
Hello👋 Charlotte. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Just had somebody else come up to me and tell me "You look so much like Trisha Yearwood". I have heard that about a dozen times through the last 20 years. As we both get older I still hear it. Such a beautiful voice.
I used to get that too . I never saw it .
Lucky girl!
Hi there
Thanks for your love and support that has brought me this far, it has been a hard time for me going through this but your love and support keeps me going and standing strong in this difficult times. I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all you’ve done for me throughout the years.
It’s a season of love for me and so I decided to put a smile on the faces of my fans by going through my TH-cam channel and checking out on my fans, so I can get to communicate with my fans better through discussion of depth and humor listening to compliments and criticism of my career.🌺🌺🌺🌺
i sang this song with a feeling just the other day. I cried while I was singing. It took me back to my high school days 1991, when i was happy.
It's so touching. A lot of us have been there....
From the very first chord, Trisha transports you back to the very moment in time when your heart was broken. The time when you last remember happienss and love. In the lyrics you find yourself walking through each experience over in your mind and if for only a second in time you catch yourself asking, "why?" For some, it could be as short a few weeks but in some cases like mine you could be 25 years hindsight and still wondering the same question. Yes, pull your boots on but "Remember when"
Lyrics:
I was standing at the counter
I was waitin' for the change
When I heard that old familiar music start
It was like a lighted match
Had been tossed into my soul
It was like a dam had broken in my heart
After taking every detour
Gettin' lost and losin' track
So that even if I wanted I could not find my way back
After drivin' out the memory of the way things might have been
After I'd forgotten all about us
The song remembers when
We were rollin' through the Rockies
We were up above the clouds
When a station out of Jackson played that song
And it seemed to fit the moment
And the moment seemed to freeze
When we turned the music up and sang along
And there was a God in Heaven
And the world made perfect sense
We were young and were in love and we were easy to convince
We were headed straight for Eden
It was just around the bend
And though I had forgotten all about it
The song remembers when
I guess something must've happened
And we must've said goodbye
And my heart must have been broken
Though I can't recall just why
The song remembers when
Well for all the miles between us
And for all the time that's passed
You would think I haven't gotten very far
And I hope my hasty heart
Will forgive me just this once
If I stop to wonder how on earth you are
But that's just a lot of water
Underneath the bridge, I've burned
And there's no use in backtracking around corners I have turned
Still, I guess some things we bury
Are just bound to rise again
And even if the whole world had forgotten
The song remembers when
Yeah, even if the whole world has forgotten
The song remembers when
I'm 68 now and have saved up lots of memories about her (not Trisha BTW - - my significant other) on my playlist. Trisha hit this nail on the head. So many of those songs can take me right back to a moment, a place, the perfume or cigarette smoke, a room on the Vegas strip, . . . . . . at 68 they'll still make me laugh or even put a tear in my eye. Three chords and the truth will get you every time when it's from the heart.
Very nostalgic...everyone has moments like those described in this song.
Always loved this one. Music is a trigger. And this tune reminds me of my 1st love.. 54 now ..I was 20 then ..he is married and lives in a different country. I am married too and have been for over 20 years..but we shared a lot of music...and a tune can bring me right back there...Thank you, Trisha...Kelly
... this beautiful song makes me cry every time, and I don't miss an opportunity to stop and listen!
I've loved this song for years, Trisha is a country music icon.
Omg I haven’t heard this song in years 😭
Beautiful lyrics ..it seems you always remember the song that was popular when you were with someone that meant something to you..love this song.
One of the best songs ever written and what a wonderful artist to sing it!!!
Yes I still listen to this song in 2021 absolutely love it one of my favorite songs
I'm 20 years old and just heard this song for the first time - it gave me the chills. Wow. Somebody said "the song remembers when" was a good song from under the comments section of a TH-cam video of of L.A Freeway by Guy Clarke, and boy am I glad I listened to it in the end. I feel like I could lie in a hammock under the summer sun and hum this tune for hours...
This will always take me back to a lost relationship. The emotional lyrical content is already great, but add Trisha's vocals and it's just a heartbreaking killer of a song.
I am a song writer as well and yes this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written to me I love her voice with it 💜
25年後再聽時
就像我25年前買了Trisha Yearwood的專輯時一樣的好聽感觸內心
Definitely one of my all time Top 10 songs of all time.
That time...when the world made perfect sense....The song remembers when. Like postcards of my life. The song remembers....

Those lyrics go right to my soul.
Hello there Nancy nice meeting you here
May the Lord be with you and your family if you believe say Amen 🙏🙌
Nobody does a broken hearted song about a lost love better than Trisha. This one, Georgia Rain, Walk away Joe... just perfect.
I'm not usually a country music fan but i heard this song on The Voice tonight, liked it immediately and wanted to hear the original.
This was worth looking for!
Musically it's very ry good but those lyrics! As others have mentioned music has amazing time-traveling power. Some songs really do open up a fresh/new old memory.
One for the playlist!
The first time I heard this song, I had to pull off the road and listen. I think my heart broke all over again for a love lost years before. To this day, I can't hear this song without mourning that lost love. Thank you for a song that always stirs my heart. 😢
Me as well.
May the Lord be with you and your family if you believe say Amen 🙏🙌
Trisha is one of the best singers ever to grace Nashville .
I love this song so much. Trisha's voice is so gorgeous and warm.
Oh the memories this song holds in my heart. Thank you for coming Houston. It was a 25+ year dream that I never thought would materialize. Thank you both for sharing your gifts with the world. We cannot thank you enough. God bless you all.
Just beautiful!
This lady has an amazing voice and the song was a gift to compliment her voice!
Can't believe it was this far back. Songs like this define my first love in high school. It carried into the early 2000's until it died, but songs like this put me right back in it. Heartbreaking but at the same time, I've never felt so much since. Music just doesn't have this kind of power anymore, mostly because artists just aren't as good. It's not really their fault; the best have already happened.
how right you are.

Love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪
I wonder where you are, but listen to the Words of this Song because they are dedicated to you and the WONDERFUL LIFE WE SHARED. YOU WERE TAKEN MANY YEARS AGO. BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER ALL THE LOVE ❤ WE SHARED .I WILL NEVER STOP WANTING TO BE WITH YOU REMEMBER ME KEITH ALWAYS. KNOW I STILL LOVE YO❤❤❤❤U
A week ago I was at an event and the song Can't help falling in love came on by Elvis. It was my wedding song just over 6 years ago. My husband and I are having a very difficult time in our marriage. That song came on and it took everything I had to not cry. Remembering all the good times, and us dancing to that song at our reception. Songs do hold a memory in our hearts and minds.

The song remembers yes how long do we remember?some remember the good times and some remember the bad . But as we live life , I think it’s best if we recalled a life of happiness and love with disappointment ,to rise us back to happiness peacefully with kindness and love
Hello👋 Sandy. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Love this song.She sings it so tenderly.
❤....wow.... what a moment.... to stop and think.... and i have never forgotten.... and i never will.... even if the whole world does.... thiis being a beautiful song.... and one of the best singers of all time.... love....❤
I always hold this as an example of the perfectly crafted song.
Anyone who feels music as their foundation to recall memories understands why I have a special love for Trisha. As I listened to her sing about life it always takes me to the times of my life. The song remembers when. I've always been a little bit jealous of Garth.
One of the most melodious song of any genre!
this song is absolutely true, ive been married to my wife for 25 years, and as we were riding in the car, a song came on, and omg, memories of past love came back, then i looked at my Annette and realized just how lucky i am to have her.the song did remember when.
this song always spoke to me, since i heard it for the first time at 8 years old. Now that i listen to it again i realize the depth and truth of the lyrics. there are so many songs that bring back memories both good and painful.
I know this may sound corny, but it is true. I am not a country music fan but my girlfriend at the time was. I am not a fan of dancing either.
I had just parked the car and we were going into the store as a big pickup truck parked near us and this song was playing. I grabbed my girlfriend and started to dance with her in the parking lot. The couple noticed us and cranked it up for us. She loved it and this song will always mean a lot to me.
Thanks Trisha
Well why the hell not...... here we go!
something like that lol
For all of us have been there, that is a very powerful song. I must admit that knocked me on my ass for all. It's worth. I love you my baby and always will
Even if you have forgotten I will always remember your song smp
Can music possibly be any better? Through the mercy of Almighty and Good God, it was all recorded and a kind TH-camr posted it for us to relive, savor, wonder at, over and over. Simply amazing
Tonight is the first time I've heard this song as far as I recall. I kind of lost it for a bit. The song remembers when and it reminded me who. An off-and-on relationship they could just never seem to work its way out. I guess our song hasn't finished writing itself.
This is a song for the ages! God’s words flowed through Hugh Presswood’s hands. I still get chills,when l hear this. After all these years, you can’t get better than this.
An interpretation so sensitive!I love this song!
My heart aches when I hear this song, but I can't remember who it aches for what may have happened to cause that ache.. Beautiful song
OMG what a wonderful song. And she is so beautiful. I love her so much.
Dislikes are stupid. Trisha is one of the best female country singers out there. She's got a little bit of a twang, and she definitely knows how to turn a note.
Hello👋 Cecilia. How are you doing? Hope you’re fine. I’m Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Such a Beautiful Song 🎵 and I Have Always Loved Trisha Yearwoods Songs 🎶❤️
Music starts from the time before you were even a thought. Meaning the night you are conceived. And progresses from their into your adulthood. Going through stages in our lives that's all. Music will also most likely be there at your funeral service as people feel the need to hear a gospel song. It's just there depending on the occassion. And every occassion deserves a song!
It makes chills go down my spine Beautiful voice
What a beautiful song, the words break your heart and Tricia's voice singing is so poignant. She has one of the loveliest voices I have ever heard, in my opinion, she is the best.
I remember when this song was first released on the radio. I loved listening to Trisha. Where did she and the good old country music go!?
I love her music, the tone of her voice, she has such great insight into the songs she chooses. On a bus to St Cloud reminds me how even though that person isn't in your life everyday, they are still in your heart. And the mind plays tricks on you so you see them everywhere, even on a bus.
Hello Judy
Such a pure voice! This is what a vocalist sounds like, not a bunch of remixing and filtering to make them sound better.
Simply Beautiful with amazing lyrics.
