He performed this live for the first time at the grand ol Opry and could hardly contain himself walked off stage and told a friend he would never do it again, his friend encouraged him to never stop singing this because other parents needed to hear this
@@sandralybrand9425 Ricky Skaggs was off stage when Craig sang it at the Grand Ole Opry. Ricky Skaggs told Craig, "that's a beautiful song", Craig replied with "well, I'm glad you got to hear it, 'cause I'll never do it again, I'll never be able to do it again". Ricky Skaggs grabbed him by the shoulders, and said "you have to sing this song, there are people that need to hear it, you have to do it". When he'd first finished writing the song he sent it to his buddy Blake, by text, when he finally got back to him a month later (life got in the way), he encouraged Craig to continue to sing it. Yes, Blake lost his brother.
You have had the best reaction to this song I have seen out of all the reactions I have seen.. Thank you for your wonderful interpretation. You should watch the live version he did from the Grabd Oke Opi. It was the 1st time he preformed it. It is amazing.
Great reaction. My Mom has lost two children. In 09" my oldest brother (hers & my Dad's first born) passed away from an OD. He was only 39 yrs old! Yesterday was his 15 yr angelversary. In 2021 my sister passed away from Alcoholism. She was only 51. Unfortunately, our Dad was murdered in 2012. My Mom & Dad had four kids. Now, there's only me & my baby brother. My brother is an addict and refuses to talk to me. I feel so bad for my Mom because he hardly calls her. It breaks her heart for me because he won't talk to me. I call my Mom every day twice a day and talk to her. I can tell you,without a shadow of a doubt,if she didn't have her faith , she wouldn't be with us herself!
I’m so glad you got to this one. I’ve been suggesting this to everyone once I found it. I’m glad some people still have it on their list to do because it’s such an amazing and impactful song. I wanted the world to hear it. I heard it the day it came out or when he first performed it. I don’t remember which came out first. But it’s Craig’s BEST ones and he’s got a bunch. Definitely in my top 5 male singers. ❤loved it! Thanks for pushing through for us. ❤
Thank you for the very articulate words, You are an amazing content creator. I lost The oldest of my 4 kids, He passed away in 2008 it’s been tough trying to block it out I volunteered to deploy to the Middle East thinking serving our country, it was a hard decision it didn’t help much, I feel I let my son down was I a good Father-what could have done better. This song has helped my heart..sorry for babbling on. He is in my heart forever. Thank you Sir.
Lost my daughter 32 years ago and I still cry and the pain in your soul NEVER stops 😔 What keeps me going are her brother & sister and knowing I will see her again when the Lord brings me home.
I have come close to losing two of three of my sons. But by the love and grace of God he brought them through. I thank him everyday for his mercy. My heart and prayers go out to all the grieving parents. What a beautiful reaction Ray❤
It's hard I know 1st hand I was lost for a long time but I had a God moment and said what am I doing to myself he wouldn't want this for me he would want me to smile again he would want me healthy he would want me to push forward for him
My faith carries me.I believe I will see my son and daughter again in heaven . Yes Ray I truly believe my children are with the Lord and I was proud to be their mother. Ray you bring me joy everyday....thank you. Sending love always.❤
Dear Ray... my response to your reaction got removed but I just wanted to say how thoughtful and meaningful your comments were to so many parents whose children have passed away. You said you weren't sure what to say because you have not gone through such a tragedy but please know your words were comforting and beautiful. Thank you. ❤
I watched my Mom for almost 57 years live everyday but never got past the guilt and the loss of her oldest son. My brother John died at 3yrs old a year before I was born. My Mom had a 1yr old and a 3 yr old and laid down to take a nap while the boys slept. John got up before Mom and didn’t wake her. It’s still unbelievable how a 3 yr old boy pushed a chair up to the stove, climbed onto the chair and then onto the stove to get what he must of thought was Mommies Candy in a Cupboard over the stove. He took all of my Moms Medication and died from an overdose. My Mom has never gotten over the guilt of taking a nap that day and not hearing John get up. To this day she is a very light sleeper and never sleeps through the night.
Thank you for your words, this is the best reaction I’ve seen for this video. I just want to say thank you for healing and true understanding. ~from a mom who lost a daughter
Once someone said to me : Life can not die, like death can not live. And that the difference between “real” and “true “ is that reality changes and the truth never changes. GBY ALL and with the help of the Holy Spirit through our Lord JEZUS CHRIST we pull through.✝️🙏🏻
I have watched a lot of reactions to this song. Your's my brother is without a doubt the best one I have seen. God bless you, and God bless Craig Morgan and his family.
I love your reactions. I don't care if people say you talk too much during a reaction or whatever else they say you speak from the heart and judge based on what you see and I love that. And honestly I needed this reaction what you said combined with this song is exactly what I needed at this time so thank you and keep doing what you do.
Damn UNC, this is a deep one. Never lost a child, but I Lost some of the guys in my unit over in the sand. It fucked me up pretty bad for a long time. I really liked what you said about we will see each other again. There's a saying I don't know who said it first but we definitely said it a lot, too many damn times if I'm honest, which is "We don't say goodbye; we just say see you later". I know I'll see all my brothers again one day, and God I got no clue what I would do if I lost my baby girl. When j get home from work today, I'm definitely going to give her an extra special hug. Then I'll hug the old lady pretty tight too. I always appreciate your reactions, definitely the funny stuff, but the more serious stuff as well.
I lost my Son on 8/5/23 he was 28 and he left behind a 4yr old Son and a 7mo old daughter. I have not been the same since that day. This Song is so hard to hear I feel his pain. RIP ROBBIE FOREVER 28😢
I’m so sorry for the loss of your son. Your comment tugged at my heart-I lost my daughter two weeks after she turned 20 in 2019. She died suddenly by accidental overdose. I’ll never be the same either. Almost 5 years and I’m still broken.
man ive heard this song several times but this is my first time to hear it after i lost my son. He was stillborn April 16 of this year. he passed 13 days before i was supposed to be induced. 9lbs 10oz. Waylon Alexander. 💔 it’s the worst pain i have ever experienced.
I love Craig Morgan. When my son was in Basic Training in Fort Sill Oklahoma, Craig Morgan was the Man who came and performed on their base. I literally have letters from my son because he was so excited. Craig Morgan is a good man.
I appreciate what you said about doing something to farther damage the family. A friend told me his brother accidentally ran over his little child with his truck and a couple months later put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. I can’t imagine the pain, but his family needed him to be there. I truly don’t know what I would have done
My kids are still in the single digits, so every time I hear this song I bawl. I know people that have lost kids, as children and adults, and I cannot imagine.
Craig lives in a small town just outside of Nashville called Dickson Tennessee. In the first verse where he says the lights are shining bright downtown on the row and people want him to show them around. He's referring to Music Row and Broadway Street in downtown Nashville.
I’m trying to branch out and support on more reactions (other than just the MGK ones 😂). I saw an interview about this song and man…it’s so hard to listen to but so beautifully written at the same time. I love how diverse your music reactions are. You always have a positive message in every video. You’re killing it, Ray. Don’t lose sight of what you’re doing with this channel ❤️
My husband and I lost our premature son when he just over 10 hours old. In July he would have been 17. It’s a pain that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.
He performed this live for the first time at the grand ol Opry and could hardly contain himself walked off stage and told a friend he would never do it again, his friend encouraged him to never stop singing this because other parents needed to hear this
Blake Shelton told him that he really had to do it. I think he'd lost a brother or sister.

Thats exactly right and Craig lost his boy in a boating accident

I lost a daughter and you never get over the pain. I still have breakdowns and it’s been 10 years.
I still cry to this day when I hear this song. Me and my wife lost our son 6 years ago.😢

Craig Morgan can write a damn song like no other. "This Ain't Nothin" is another beautiful one by him but he doesn't miss.
Life is FULL of struggles. Faith and family get us through
man ive heard this song several times but this is my first time to hear it after i lost my son. He was stillborn April 16 of this year. he passed 13 days before i was supposed to be induced. 9lbs 10oz. Waylon Alexander. 💔 it’s the worst pain i have ever experienced.
Another great one by Craig is “Almost Home”
I love Craig Morgan. When my son was in Basic Training in Fort Sill Oklahoma, Craig Morgan was the Man who came and performed on their base. I literally have letters from my son because he was so excited. Craig Morgan is a good man.
The only way we can function is with Jesus. My husband and I have lost 2 sons since 2021.

I can do all things thru Christ that strengthens me
Big army guy.salute!
And im not sure if you know this or not but craig lost his 17 year old son in a drowning accident thats why he wrote this song
My husband and I lost our premature son when he just over 10 hours old. In July he would have been 17. It’s a pain that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.
indiana loves ya ray❤
Ray, with the loss your son and family has suffered. A song may bring some comfort:
Brad Paisley (ft. Dolly Parton) - When I Get Where I’m Going
He lost his son Jerry from a drowning accident.
you would probably like toby keith cry for me
