Dean Dillon is a criminally underrated artist, not just as a songwriter but also a singer. He sings with more emotion in one song than every artist on the radio today, combined. Hats off to you, sir.
I only wish I could meet him! I actually like the song writers version better than the singers!! Dean and Gary Stewart and Hank Cochran are my favorite!!
Many a night, I performed this on stage in smoky barrooms all over Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana and Alabama watching the dance floor fill up in seconds. I don't believe I ever sang this once where the dance floor was not full. Was always a great feeling. We need more writers like ole Dean!

I saw Dean back in the late 80's at Poor Davids Pub in Dallas. He opened for Guy Clark. I doubt that many there that night knew who he was until he told of the songs he had written for George Strait. I became a fan that night. If you've never seen Guy Clark I urge you. He's God among Texas songwriters.

He just oozes with talent. Such a prolific writer of beautiful music and he makes it seem so effortless.
I get spoiled every year when Uncle Dean plays in front of our family. True legend

The Chair I 25 years old . Remember my pasion for this song mister George Strait. MCA nashville

Always admired his talent. I always looked at the credits on who wrote songs. And he was the one guy that I seen kept writing hits
Admiration in George Straits face.....ours too! 👏
Somethings wrong with my eyes at the moment! Legend!
Stuart Duncan at Fidlle .Tkanks mister Dean an hero your George
He sounds like Gary Stewart
That’s the best version I’ve heard.
He kind of got that Keith Whitley voice a little bit.
Dean Dillon is one of the great song writers, but his singing sucks.
Dorian McCloud really...really sad. You just don't get it.
He's not at his best in this video, but he really can sing. Check out one of his recordings.
Look at the most recent one he did with George
