The kids today will never understand or appreciate the way the world was then. People cared about their neighbors, weren't buried in their phones, were loyal, and didn't show love just for the sake of one upping someone else on social media.
I was born in 81’ and I had a dysfunctional home life but it was still a great childhood! Stayed outside from morning til night. Played “Kick the Bottle” and drank from the water hose. Laid in the grass with the dogs and made mud pies. Rode our bikes all day long. Ate good food too at grandmas! We respected our elders and loved one another. We were also much more active back then! I feel sorry for my children because the internet is their everything. It’s my own fault but I had no clue what damage it could do when I handed them PlayStations and iPhones. I was the last person in our immediate family of five to get a smart phone or Facebook. When I did, my friends said, “Welcome to the 21st Century”. I used to spend a lot more time with my husband and children before I had an iPhone. I wish I had never picked up one of these dang things and I wish just as much I could’ve seen what effect technology would have on my kids. Do you have kids? What does a parent do when they’ve allowed their kids to have phones and social media so young but 10-13-19 years later they see the negative impact? I feel like I can’t take their stuff away now but I REALLY need to! I feel like it could cause more harm than good at this point to take their electronics. My older two kids understand my concerns and my 13 yr old would respectfully accept my decision to not let her have smartphones or social media. She’s a great child. But my 10 year old would act like a lunatic I am certain! 😩🤦🏻♀️ I recently set time limits on the phones but I cave in on days I don’t feel well or when I’m busy, which is often. I recently watched “Social Dilemma” and it made me even more eager to make some changes. I want my kids to be outside! You’re so right. Kids will never know what life was like back then. Did you know the suicide rate for junior high kids has increased 185% since the internet? I find that heartbreaking.
BS17 I was born in 1980 and I know EXACTLY what you mean EVERYTHING u just sd about growing up and our kids now is how I feel EXACTLY its crazy u sd EVERYTHING that I wanted to say!😉
@@angelabise1333 I was born in 1951. I had a very abusive childhood. It’s over. I try my best to get rid of my pain. I have been working on myself since I learned about psychology. I sank into it like ducks on water. It saved my life. My 2 younger sister and brother committed suicide. That is how bad it was. My sister 1 year older than me with me also think about ending our life but we don’t have the guts. We have severe pain from arthritis pain, fibromyalgia, chronic pain. Yet we talk about our childhood and find the funny stuff we did. No indoor bathroom. We see how the world has changed since we were kids. It’s mind blowing. Kids now days don’t have that good old childhood we had. I agree 100%. My granddaughter is soon to be 12 and my son and daughter in law try to get her outside on her bike, roller blades, trampoline, they have her in tennis, gymnastics, karate, she’s a fish in water even starting to mow grass with an easy push mower. They try to keep it limited with all the phones and technology. She’s an ‘A’ student. Friends galore. She has parents that care so much about her and family and friends around her. They live in a city. I grew up on the farm and so did my kids. You just never get bored. Always something to do, work or play. Climbing trees. A treehouse. It was limitless. And good home made balanced meals. Those days are gone forever. But I know I grew up in the best years of music ever! Music is my savior on my dark days. But singing with it makes me feel even better if not the best!!! Hang in there guys! Don’t lose sight of good morals and values. And good common sense. It will get you so much further in this life. Teach your children that! Thanks for sharing! And God I have to say my world of music is vast!
@@BS-dq1kz I know how you feel (I'm a bit older than you, but same generation) but don't kick yourself. Do your best, as that's all you can do, love. And thank you for that statistic, as I didn't know suicides had reached such heights at that age group.
It's a damn shame that Earl Thomas Conley didn't get the recognition that he deserved. He was one of the greatest singer's ever. R.I.P Earl. You will be forever missed and loved.
@crystalbarron9022 does he show you that he loves you in other ways? I would rather he buy me something I want or need rather than on expensive flowers that will die in a few days...! He bought me lilac bushes for my yard! That's enough for me! Instead he buys me cherries when they're in season, clothes that I want, he cooks for me because I can't anymore. There's all the little things that he does or says that mean so much to me. He knows never to hit me(again) because of repercussions! We've learned respect for each other! I hope you get this from your spouse! Much luck to you & prayers! ❤
This song keeps me in check ! Sometimes i feel that i don't express my gratitude as often as she deserves! I do agree that Earl and Keith are Tops! From the heart❤!
I just lost the only good woman that I've ever had or ever have, If she only knew how much I truly love her, 18.5 years together, she left me like I meant nothing to her
He may not have made it into the Hall of Fame (shame on them), but his voice & soul stirring songs made it into our hearts. It would be so nice to turn on the radio & hear voices & songs like his!
He was my dad's close friend and worked together before starting big! And drank a lot together lol. I never forget him hanging out with us and just being Earl Thomas! RIP buddy!
This song reminds me of my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost battling cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, life could be so unfair most times, but sometimes I wonder why bad things always happen to good people
I am only 38. But would rather hear the oldies because they actually have meaning to the songs. And there is a song that hits you just right depending on situation.
Back in the 80's things were so simple, no cell phones, no computers, people cared and the songs were off the chart!!! Miss hearing you Earl Thomas Conley, you will always be in my heart!!!I will always come here to hear and remember you, gone too young, but never forgotten!!!!❤❤❤
@@HighSpeedNoDrag You’re right! I feel these smart phones and other internet m/electronic devices are ruining families altogether. Not just our children but our marriage ma as well!
I miss the old world so bad. If I told these youngins that most everybody was real people, they would listen, but they wouldn't believe me. You woulda had to have been there.
Broke my heart, l loved his music. Have his double album greatest hits. Holdin Her and Loving You, Heavenly Bodies, What She is is a Woman in Love. He had more number ones than any other male country singer in 80s and 90s.
Yeah true Timmy 😊 I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
Yes I agree, not very crazy about the newer version of Country Music. 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, were the Best, especially the 1980s, so very many Wonderful Country Artist came on the scene, got got very popular in that Decade, and On. Oh Wow what a very wonderful song, , liked the Video of this. I remember this song. 🎶🎵🎶🙏😇🙏🤗🥰
@@douglasgeiger7591 I'm 76 now. My husband passed 11 years ago, after 46 1/2 years of marriage. This was identical to our marriage in the 60s. We were in our teens. Every word is so accurate. Things improved and we had many good years. During his last years, every night, when I put him to bed, he went to sleep listening to "I Want to Stroll Over Heaven With You " by Alan Jackson, on replay. Looking forward to joining him when the Lord chooses. Just reminiscing. Hoping Jesus brings someone for you. God bless. ❤️
This song reminds me of my great uncle. He was an alcoholic, mean, downright ornery but he treated my aunt so well. Eventually he quit drinking for her.
“Fire and Smoke” album, it’s a must. He had one of those amazingly unique and beautiful voices. He didn’t get the recognition he surely deserved. RIP Earl, You have always been and will continue to be part of the soundtrack of my life.
I can say I’m blessed with a loving wife I have done her wrong in so many ways she never complains about anything she has been there when I had nothing to offer her but our love she always tells me as long as we have each other nothing else matters we have been together since 3-13-1998 a lot of things has changed since then we’re happy than ever love you baby face
You two sound a lot like my parents. They're both in their upper 80s now and been married for 67 years. My dad put her through hell in the early years. She dealt with so much more than anyone should ever have to. Nine children, many corrections, and many years later, they act like 2 teenagers in love. Fortunately, he has spent the last 40 years doing all he could to make it up to her. That kind of commitment is so very rare these days. Your wife sounds like that caliber of a woman. RARE in todays world. God bless you both and good luck.
Your wife sounds like me. I love my husband but like Earl says she hates how she loves me sometimes. I do at times but I wouldn't trade my husband for nothing. Just wish he would quit getting so mad at every little thing. I know I thought of leaving but I'm not that type I just keep hanging on when anyone else would have. I just now learn how to go along when he doesn't give in.
I think that this man was definitely one of a kind. His music is really great. I think that even though he is gone his music and his memories will live on forever
So weird? Was listening to some old songs n I see this comment ...my son was dj Williams too. He passed at the age of 39 July 30, 2020 from covid, awesome, handsome, loving musician, son. I miss him so much. 🎶 music memories.
I remember when I was living in Alabama me and my Aunt Mot would go to lady's night and they would play this she has passed away now but Earl keeps her close to my heart 💜❤️💜❤️
This song reminds me of my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost battling cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, life could be so unfair most times, but sometimes I wonder why bad things always happen to good people
I really appreciate ppl who make statements like this is real country. It really lets me know who u are deep down inside. ! Don’t get me wrong I love this song!! But I like lots of songs. By a variety of artists. And a variety of genres. I like a lot of songs that u wouldn’t consider country. Glad to know how u feel b4 I wasted my time getting to know u!
Seems like when i LOVE someone I loose him. I am letting Jesus take the wheel because I know I can't do anything without him leading me thru this life. In a world where true love and care and empathy and real friends and family are so hard to find.
I always thought Keith Whitley sang this... I learned something new! Love the song and miss Earl Thomas Conley. I recognized a lot of his songs but didn't realize that he was the singer until now.
I went to Laughlin Nevada and he was playing at the casino when this was #1. He saw me in the Casino and gave me and my friend front row tickets. After the show we took a walk along the river walkway and he sang it to me again. Pretty awesome. RIP
Rip Thomas is a Legend Kim and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
In today's heavy handed recording industry, "inspiration" isn't the option it once was. Unlike the "outlaw" days when rebels like Roger Miller, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Tompall Glaser and David Allen Coe would stand up to the "suits of Nashville," today's performers no longer enjoy such leverage. They play what they're told to play, in some cases even at live concerts. One explanation for such artistic servitude-- their own talent agents have a nasty habit of climbing in the sack with the industry's corporate executives, engaging in quid-pro-quo arrangements of benefit to everyone except the baby-faced singer. Artists like Charlie and Bruce Robison Brothers, Nancy Griffith and other great South Texas talents all seem to flourish independently, but "independence" comes at a price. Not that it matters to me; I could listen to them all day on TH-cam. But none of them ever seem to ascend to the status of household names as "performers." An exception would be Ms. Griffith, but only as a composer. Her collaborations on "From A Distance" and "Love At The Five & Dime" helped to put her on the map as a song writer. Otherwise their notoriety is pretty much limited to a regional market, a not so appetizing prospect for today's starry eyed up and comers who would rather sell their souls for super-stardom.
If you pay attention to today's lyrics, they are very much the same...only thing is, recording labels want to reach the younger generation. Which we all know that they are NOT into old songs...therefore they add background "junk" and hip hop beats
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
This is for my Sarah,,, the love of my life. Beside me in everything that I do. Constant support, unwaivering love. My heart, my world, I still don't understand why she stays. Just thankful for her..... I love u baby.
Earl Thomas Conley & Keith Whitley should absolutely BOTH be in the Country Music Hall of Fame.
I agree 💯 percent they are the best singers
Never a truer statement.
Couldn’t agree more!

@Willie. Rolls I'm good thank you, how are you
Hi 👋, how are you doing
One of the greatest singers of all time.
Agreed
Never could understand why he didn’t become more famous has a great sound and feeling
He had more hits than anyone..he lost his voice
I remember when I was living in Alabama me and my Aunt Mot would go to lady's night and they would play this she has passed away now but Earl keeps her close to my heart 💜❤️💜❤️
one of the best videos of all time. I knew ETC and he was as genuine as its gets
We lost a legend today. Love your music Earl.
R.I.P old friend your talent was a blessing of a lifetime
I listen to him today and saw this tonight. He was a legend.
This song reminds me of my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost battling cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, life could be so unfair most times, but sometimes I wonder why bad things always happen to good people
I really appreciate ppl who make statements like this is real country. It really lets me know who u are deep down inside. ! Don’t get me wrong I love this song!! But I like lots of songs. By a variety of artists. And a variety of genres. I like a lot of songs that u wouldn’t consider country. Glad to know how u feel b4 I wasted my time getting to know u!
This one is for my MOMMA. yall are together💅💅💅💅💅💅and at peace 🙏🙏
One of the very best country singers ever!
Agreed.
Without a doubt.
He's always been my favorite singer. His songs hit home
You are absolutely correct.
Agreed
The only song that makes my grandfather cry!
Had one of your songs in my mind all day and then heard you passed. Your music was truly a gift to the world. Rest peacefully.
Hi Jodi, how are you doing today
Totally agree 👍 both belong in the hall of fame
❤ gone but not forgotten ❤
Damn I love it when I come across these great timeless tunes.
Seems like when i LOVE someone I loose him. I am letting Jesus take the wheel because I know I can't do anything without him leading me thru this life. In a world where true love and care and empathy and real friends and family are so hard to find.
Cristy u r so right saddletramp
Loved your music growing up in the 80's.. Rip
Still love your music
I am blessed. Don't know why my wife loves me. I hardly ever do the right thing or say the right thing. But the one time it just feels right!
I'm right with ya. Keep plugging on Will.
I always thought Keith Whitley sang this... I learned something new! Love the song and miss Earl Thomas Conley. I recognized a lot of his songs but didn't realize that he was the singer until now.
Rest in peace Earl. Your music will live on forever and we'll always love you.
Rest in Peace, Sir and thanks for all the beautiful music

Beautiful song! "Rest in Peace Mr.Earl Thomas Conley"
If there ever were a time capsule for music, this would for sure be a submission for the ages, I have fond memories of this.
Loved your music, could listen to you all day. Loved you too!
There's more then that even the ones think they have authority over someone only God has that power and he will prevail
I went to Laughlin Nevada and he was playing at the casino when this was #1. He saw me in the Casino and gave me and my friend front row tickets. After the show we took a walk along the river walkway and he sang it to me again. Pretty awesome. RIP
Rip Thomas is a Legend Kim and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺

timeless.....
ETC is one of the Great Ones ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
the best all time.hands down.
why can't the country artist of today, find inspiration from artist like this.
In today's heavy handed recording industry, "inspiration" isn't the option it once was. Unlike the "outlaw" days when rebels like Roger Miller, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Tompall Glaser and David Allen Coe would stand up to the "suits of Nashville," today's performers no longer enjoy such leverage. They play what they're told to play, in some cases even at live concerts.
One explanation for such artistic servitude-- their own talent agents have a nasty habit of climbing in the sack with the industry's corporate executives, engaging in quid-pro-quo arrangements of benefit to everyone except the baby-faced singer. Artists like Charlie and Bruce Robison Brothers, Nancy Griffith and other great South Texas talents all seem to flourish independently, but "independence" comes at a price. Not that it matters to me; I could listen to them all day on TH-cam. But none of them ever seem to ascend to the status of household names as "performers." An exception would be Ms. Griffith, but only as a composer. Her collaborations on "From A Distance" and "Love At The Five & Dime" helped to put her on the map as a song writer. Otherwise their notoriety is pretty much limited to a regional market, a not so appetizing prospect for today's starry eyed up and comers who would rather sell their souls for super-stardom.
Yes ronnie, georgejones and straight, the good old legends
they are told to make hick hop country to help brainwash the masses for the media
These artist were honest storytellers..
If you pay attention to today's lyrics, they are very much the same...only thing is, recording labels want to reach the younger generation. Which we all know that they are NOT into old songs...therefore they add background "junk" and hip hop beats
R I P Earl Thomas Connelly you may be gone but definitely not forgotten your music will live on for ever :(
I still do all his songs on karaoke once in a blue moon
I'll always miss him! Love his music and loved his videos RIP my dear Sir! Thanks for the memorys!/
This song does fit my man.Bless his heart.
Poor thang 😂😂😂
YES my husband ! He is in heaven! What a good man he was, I feel like I never gave him a break, and he was the best man I ever knew! OMG
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
this is a song that touches you no matter what year or era you are from , blue moons can bring miracles !!!
RIP Brother.Thank you for all the good music.
This is real country!
This is for my Sarah,,, the love of my life. Beside me in everything that I do. Constant support, unwaivering love. My heart, my world, I still don't understand why she stays. Just thankful for her..... I love u baby.
