"Try as I may I could never explain what I hear when you don't say a thing". Dernit, took the words right outta my mouth. Now I'll never be able to use that line. Between Keith Whitley, George Straights The Chair and countless others, a single guy has no good lines left.
Pamela Morgan agreed. My favorite line tho is from The King, George Strait. He sang “He must have stolen some stars from the sky; gave them to you to wear in your eyes”. RIP Keith Whitley. 😢 🙏
I love this song!!!! It was my dad's favorite song when he was alive. My grandpa played music with Keith Whitley, George Jones, Charley Pride, Merle Haggard and I was lucky enough to meet some of them. That's why I love Country music so much.
Dude's voice was so classically country. Alison Krauss released it later, which you reacted to, as well. Its the same song and both are beautiful, in their own ways.
Allison Krauss did a remake of this song, as well as one or two other Keith Whitley songs. It's one of those songs by one of those iconic singers that resonates with people.
@@narcissaclink3653 no disrespect to her, because AK can sing her ass off, but nothing touches KW's version for me. When I learned to how play the song on my saxophone, his version was the one I listened to.
Mr Whitley was one of the best country singers ever in my opinion it’s so sad he’s no longer with us so talented and seemed like a good man rip mr Whitley
I have been binging on your videos and that is so me. I remember dating someone and he started to stock his fridge with cheese pizzas. Inexpensive individualized, dollar pizzas. So simple. Another guy I dated a LONG time ago all of a sudden had a toothbrush in the bathroom for me. Those gestures that say I want you to keep coming around made me feel giddy. I just want someone who wants to spend time with me. It doesn't have to be every free second we both have. But to have adventures together and laughter and gestures that let me know you want that to continue... cannot be replaced with words.
This song reminds me of my Uncle who passed in 2013. Helped my Momma raise my brothers n I along with my Aunt. He was my best friend. Never said anything bad about anyone. Alot to p*** him off but when he was damn. Lol. His word was gold. Didn't have to say he loved you cause you already knew!! Miss You & Love You Uncle Randy!!!! August 29 1952 - July 13 2013:(
Just saw your reaction to Alyssa Lies by Jason Michael Carroll and if you want to hear another sad song check out Craig Morgan "Almost Home" and react to that
What could have been, had Keith never died. Guy was destined for greatness. He was his biggest critic, never truly believing he was good enough, and turning to alcohol. My favorite song of his is Miami Mine Amy. Keith definitely would have been spoken with the GREATS. RIP KEITH
Billy, you would love Miami, My Amy. Better yet, just pick any of his song’s...their all great. He was married to a Country artist, Lorrie Morgan. After his death, she discovered a recording in his studio called “Tell Lorrie I loved her”. Will rip your heart out.
@@bruceborneman 100 0/0 positive. She was married to Clint Blacks bus driver on the rebound after Keith's death. Troy came into the picture after that marriage ended.
@@bruceborneman 100 0/0 sure. She married Clint Black's bus driver on the rebound from Keith's death in 1991. Troy came into the picture after that marriage ended in 93.
Billy, I've been married for 13 years to the best woman in the world, and every single morning, when I first see her, it's like I'm seeing her for the first time.
I cried when Keith Passed away. He was one of the best country singers out there. He started out in bluegrass. Gone too soon. Have you ever reacted to his song;"I'm No Stranger In The Rain"?
To me though Keith Whitley is considered a country singer I always felt that he was truly a soul singer who sings country music. I would suggest songs that weren't hits "Long Black Limousine" and "Tennessee Courage."
If I was gonna make a list of Country love songs everyone, regardless of what music they like, should listen to before they die, this would probably be on the list. Glad you like it and the fact that you're even doing a genre like Country that you weren't familiar with and enjoying what you're hearing(at least you seem to be, I'm not sure what songs you didn't put up that you're not a fan of) should be commended by the fans of the music. Keep it up my good sir
Keith Whitley had he had he had the voice he was the man and Country when he was doing that he's got another song right at that time to go Don't Close Your Eyes by Keith Whitley
I love this song. When I was a young kid I use to listen to music like this on the radio in my dad's car. This was a great choice Billy you should react next to Brantley Gilbert - You don't know her like I do.
Heard this for the first time ever and it was covered when I went to a concert with my girlfriend. Most of that concert I wasn’t even watching the stage. The real show for me was watching my girl having fun and singing to all her favorite songs. Best concert ever.
I come from a family where actions are louder than words. One of my grandpa's very rarely says "I love you." back. It's usually just a gruff, "Yeah." But he shows it in things he does. He's an amazing craftsman and makes homemade gifts for us.
Looove this song. Actions speak louder then words. Anybody can say the pretty, flowery words you wanna hear. Not everyone can show you by actions alone.
My husband and I have that thing. I could be sitting there looking at something or thinking and he'll mention the subject seconds later and vice versa. It was that way on our first date.
Allison Krause does a remake of this song and it's fucking beautiful. Idk if you know Allison Krause but you absolutely NEED to do some of her music. I saw her live with the band UNION STATION and it was life changing. I swear she sounded like they were playing her recording from the booth and lip singing until she laughed in the middle of a track and restarted the verse and I realized it was really her singing, and not a recording... blew my mind!!!!!! Whiskey lullaby, ghost in this house, and I'll find more
I remember when he was popular, I loved him. I remember when he died, for a while,I thought i would i. Would too. Yes,,actions speak much louder than words ,my husband used give me a flower a day even if he picked it out of a neighbor yard or a weed off the road side. Sometimes it was Sweet ,Sometimes not
This was THE song of one of one of the tightest couple in my high school, then tragically the guy died in an accident, and she sang it at his memorial. To this day, I think of them when I hear this song. A pure n simple kind of love. Sad from my experiences, but still beautiful.
This was back when country was country. It stayed true to its roots. It couldn't be played on a rock station. Keith Whitley was an artist who couldn't swop from country to pop. He was 100% country. Garth Brooks, my choice for a GOAT of country music (notice I didn't say the goat. I said a goat) can't say that. Mr. Whitley didn't change and I don't think he would if he could.
Keith Whitley was a great that left us too early. you should hear his best known hit "dont close your eyes" or the song "brotherly love"with Earl Thomas Conley ( another we just lost in great music). another song you light like is "once in a blue moon" by Earl Thomas Conley
Such a beautiful song! Idk why or if anyone else as a kid thought this when it first came out but as a kid listening to this song I always use to think to myself... "Who's Mr. Webster???" Then I spent a few years in school and became well aquatinted with "Mr. Webster". 🤣🤣🤣 I didn't want to take away the beauty of the song but just thought I'd share. ☺️
Kieth witley was a country music legend in his day. Im one that prefers act of service and physical touch as the love language im most responsive to. Today pj took baby girl and let me nap since i got rained out for the day. He's at work right now and baby girl is fast asleep for the night, and i already lined up a menu for meal prep for the week. He plans on setting up my kitchen for me when i get out from my early shift so we can cook together
After being lied to by guys, words mean nothing. You love me? Show me! My fiancé says he loves me and he shows me every day. Actions are louder than words
I agree. Randy Travis had a collection of not just classic country songs, but Christian songs as well. I always thought he had a good distinct voice. I would also add He Walked on Water to the list too.
Billy: I need to digest this Me: Nooo!! When the legend Keith whitley preaches the word of love like that you listen the comprehension comes later my dude
They don’t write them like this anymore. A great song, so good even the covers are good. I enjoy your reaction. This is my first one, I will look for more!
Check out Til Each Tear Becomes A Rose. There's his version only then Lorrie Morgan with her voice over version. They were married up until his death in 1989.
"Old Mr. Webster could never define what's being said between your heart & mine" now that's a powerful statement...One of his best songs here.
I was wondering if anyone was going to acknowledge that lyric when he didn't. Such a powerful and beautiful lyric.
That's THE line that stands out to me whenever I remember this song .... 👍
"Try as I may I could never explain what I hear when you don't say a thing". Dernit, took the words right outta my mouth. Now I'll never be able to use that line. Between Keith Whitley, George Straights The Chair and countless others, a single guy has no good lines left.
Shan Htet Aung the English dictionary is made by Webster
Pamela Morgan agreed. My favorite line tho is from The King, George Strait. He sang “He must have stolen some stars from the sky; gave them to you to wear in your eyes”.
RIP Keith Whitley. 😢 🙏
When country was real country. Dude is a legend
Well said
It's a shame that such a pure voice belonged to a man with so many demons.
George Strait's only peer
And such a tragic story :(
He sure was and you know who is on top at this time when he had that and Don't Close Your Eyes
R.I.P. Love me some Keith Whitley. He would have been and even bigger star than he is if lived.
My dad knew him well. He was crushed when he died.
@@sumama4835 He died in 1989 at 34 years old, from alcohol poisoning.
RIP,
Best male country voice that I can think of.
His death was a tragic loss to country
Keith and Ricky Van Shelton are 2 of the best country singers
I would throw vince gill and randy travis into that category. All great
George Jones imo
Vern Gosdin is up there
Aaron Todd Randy Travis no doubt
Oh how I have missed his music over the years I was so crushed when he passed away we lost one of the best country music artists ever lived.
Beautiful song! Another one is " Don't Close Your Eyes" You should definitely give it a listen! Keith was such a beautiful talent!✌❤
The golden voice of country.
His tone and riffs were amazing. RIP ❤
Keith Whitley was one of the greats. This song is like auditory magic...it pulls you in makes you feel what a perfect love could be. 💕💕💕💕
Thank you for including. A fantastic voice lost too soon!
A man who left this world too soon. R.I.P.
One of the greatest ever!!!!!
Actions always speak louder than words, but that's why I love this song so much, you just know with their presence that you are loved.
I love this song!!!! It was my dad's favorite song when he was alive. My grandpa played music with Keith Whitley, George Jones, Charley Pride, Merle Haggard and I was lucky enough to meet some of them. That's why I love Country music so much.
"Old Mister Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine"
To this day I miss Keith Whitley...one of country's best vocals!
Dude's voice was so classically country. Alison Krauss released it later, which you reacted to, as well. Its the same song and both are beautiful, in their own ways.
His voice gives me chills
I never noticed the motorcycle before. Plot twist!! He is singing to the bike. Deep.
Oh yeah... If you like this one, "I'm No Stranger To The Rain"...
Miami, My Amy is another great one by Keith
Love some Keith Whitley!!
Allison Krauss did a remake of this song, as well as one or two other Keith Whitley songs. It's one of those songs by one of those iconic singers that resonates with people.
I like her version better.
@@narcissaclink3653 no disrespect to her, because AK can sing her ass off, but nothing touches KW's version for me. When I learned to how play the song on my saxophone, his version was the one I listened to.
Life lasts but a little time , in both the heart and in the mind - a fleeting gift from up above , the only thing worth the while is Love 💕
Keith Whitley was so good and was just starting to take off when he tragically died in 1989. Thanks for doing this reaction.
RIP Keith Whitley the greatest voice of country music ever
Mr Whitley was one of the best country singers ever in my opinion it’s so sad he’s no longer with us so talented and seemed like a good man rip mr Whitley
You should check out Travis Tritt's Foolish Pride. Great song, good story!
Dealie Colburn Yes, please Billy do this one!!
I love this song
Its not fair to have this good vocals...the best country voice of all time by miles
I have been binging on your videos and that is so me.
I remember dating someone and he started to stock his fridge with cheese pizzas. Inexpensive individualized, dollar pizzas. So simple.
Another guy I dated a LONG time ago all of a sudden had a toothbrush in the bathroom for me.
Those gestures that say I want you to keep coming around made me feel giddy.
I just want someone who wants to spend time with me. It doesn't have to be every free second we both have. But to have adventures together and laughter and gestures that let me know you want that to continue... cannot be replaced with words.
Keith was from the next town over from me. My family knew him from the time he was little
Yesssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!
It take a second to say I love you but it take a life time to show it
I love the song. The song 22 years ago was played and mine and my husband's wedding And it still holds true to day as it did back then
He was a special one. There is a version done after he passed away done as a duet with him and Alison Krause. He had a few hits back in the 80's.
That is such a beautiful song
Love you to check out Earl Thomas Conley “Once In A Blue Moon” sometime. He just passed away a couple weeks ago and it would be a nice tribute.
You should do tell lorrie i love her. i love him one of the very best songs in country
Love me some keith whitley I love all he did when u can check out tell lori I love her and til a tear becomes a rose
This song reminds me of my Uncle who passed in 2013. Helped my Momma raise my brothers n I along with my Aunt. He was my best friend. Never said anything bad about anyone. Alot to p*** him off but when he was damn. Lol. His word was gold. Didn't have to say he loved you cause you already knew!! Miss You & Love You Uncle Randy!!!! August 29 1952 - July 13 2013:(
I love his voice. Its tragic he died so young. Rip keith
Just saw your reaction to Alyssa Lies by Jason Michael Carroll and if you want to hear another sad song check out Craig Morgan "Almost Home" and react to that
*Carrie Underwood " Temporary Home" 🖤*
What could have been, had Keith never died. Guy was destined for greatness. He was his biggest critic, never truly believing he was good enough, and turning to alcohol. My favorite song of his is Miami Mine Amy. Keith definitely would have been spoken with the GREATS. RIP KEITH
Love me some Keith Whitley...... a once in a lifetime voice! RIP 5/9/89 (alcohol)
I sang this version of this song in the Nashville Talent search competition
r.i.p.keith gone way to young
Gone too soon.
Beautiful song
I love this song so much. Keith is sorely missed, gone too soon. RIP.
Why can't I see what Billy said about the other Keith Whitley video, "Don't Close Your Eyes?" One of my all time favorite songs!
Billy, you would love Miami, My Amy. Better yet, just pick any of his song’s...their all great. He was married to a Country artist, Lorrie Morgan. After his death, she discovered a recording in his studio called “Tell Lorrie I loved her”. Will rip your heart out.
He has always been my favorite artist. Alcohol took his life.
@@bruceborneman NOt true, she met Troy long AFTER Keith's death.
@@bruceborneman 100 0/0 positive. She was married to Clint Blacks bus driver on the rebound after Keith's death. Troy came into the picture after that marriage ended.
@@bruceborneman 100 0/0 sure. She married Clint Black's bus driver on the rebound from Keith's death in 1991. Troy came into the picture after that marriage ended in 93.
Its nice to see you did both versions. Both are amazing
Billy, I've been married for 13 years to the best woman in the world, and every single morning, when I first see her, it's like I'm seeing her for the first time.
I cried when Keith Passed away.
He was one of the best country singers out there.
He started out in bluegrass.
Gone too soon.
Have you ever reacted to his song;"I'm No Stranger In The Rain"?
Good ole song. Used to be married in that family
Gary Stewart. Whiskey Trip. There is a sad story behind him and you can hear it in his voice. It's pure country.
Voice of an ANGEL. Simply put.
He's a GOAT, RIP Mr. Whitley.
To me though Keith Whitley is considered a country singer I always felt that he was truly a soul singer who sings country music. I would suggest songs that weren't hits "Long Black Limousine" and "Tennessee Courage."

just watched you for first time, this song is one of my faves ever hear Heartlands I Loved Her First?
Keith Whitley had he had he had the voice he was the man and Country when he was doing that he's got another song right at that time to go Don't Close Your Eyes by Keith Whitley

I love that you talked about your love language!!! Great book!
What a great song. His voice is so unique. I definitely recommend checking out Allison Krause’s version. It’s also fantastic.
She is awesome.
Awesome song!! Do Travis Tritt love of a woman and best of intentions, Bucky Covington a different world
If I remember right he only had 2 albums realsed before his death my favorite song by him is I'm over you
Same here!
Looove this song. Actions speak louder then words. Anybody can say the pretty, flowery words you wanna hear. Not everyone can show you by actions alone.
My husband and I have that thing. I could be sitting there looking at something or thinking and he'll mention the subject seconds later and vice versa. It was that way on our first date.
I havent heard this song in so long.. There always used to be Country playing on the radio at my grandparents. I got chills hearing this again ha
The greatest song of all time by the greatest voice ever.
Miami, My Amy is another good one
I love this song is one of my favorites
I do like a woman that isn't scared to come after what she wants.
Allison Krause does a remake of this song and it's fucking beautiful. Idk if you know Allison Krause but you absolutely NEED to do some of her music.

R.I.P Keith Whitley
He was taken from us way too soon.
In my opinion a person's words need to match their actions. A balance of both is the ultimate expression of a person's feelings.
I remember when he was popular, I loved him. I remember when he died, for a while,I thought i would i. Would too. Yes,,actions speak much louder than words ,my husband used give me a flower a day even if he picked it out of a neighbor yard or a weed off the road side. Sometimes it was
Sweet ,Sometimes not
That same bike is at the country music hall of fame

Try some Randy Travis if you are a country fan. On the other hand or forever and ever amen.
Three Wooden Crosses is one Billy might be "ah man..." about, but the RT has a huge collection of greats
I agree. Randy Travis had a collection of not just classic country songs, but Christian songs as well. I always thought he had a good distinct voice. I would also add He Walked on Water to the list too.
This is my and my husband’s song
You should check out
People are crazy by Billy Currington
Copperhead Road - Steve Earle. Please and thank you
This is an amazing song , and it's really great to see that you really get it Billy .
Do a reaction to "don't close your eyes" by Keith Whitley.
