Great singer… I just drove by Marty’s childhood home at 5804 West Myrtle, Glendale Az. After 60 years I realized we I went to the same elementary school years later that Marty went to.
Glenn Johnson Great country music.The real deal from the master,Marty Robbins.They just dont write these type of songs now.Thankyou for this upload of Marty.Brilliant!
I first heard this song when I was a kid, it was sang by the Norman Lubuff group, I purchased the record. It is nearly 60 years ago, now I listen to it nearly every night sang by Marty Robins on U tube. Sadly you are gone, but your songs is eternal.
Wow ! Unbelievable heart and soul. Marty never fails to amaze me with the wonderful gift to sing that the Lord has given to him. I hope to meet him again on the other side.
I was fortunate to see a late show at the Opry in 1965 where Marty shows up and stays on stage for like 2 hours. It was Midnight when he left. The best show I ever seen, not to say the Best singing I ever Heard, Bar None. I went on stage and I was dressed up and I guess people thought I was part of the show. Ha. I would not think you could get away with that today because of security. The best show ever in my life and I was 18 years old at the time. I went back stage and even sang with a group. I could not tell you who they were. And I never realized what a great time I had that night. I returned in 1967, but, it wasn't the same. I was expecting a show like the summer of 65, but although, a good show, the '65 show, could not be topped.
Thank you for sharing the post and it's true words can't decide what this Great Man Voice and Music Talent has been able to do for this sick ol world...need it now more than ever before. .ol man way down in ...jd
Harold Wilson, I was prepared to make the correction about Floyd Tillman being the writer of this song but you beat me to it. For what it's worth, Floyd sold the rights to the song to Jimmy Davis but bought them back some years later.
A Floyd Tillman classic. First released in 1938 by Cliff Brunner and his Texas Wanderers. Floyd would have enjoyed Marty Robbin's versipn though. God bless and keep you. My Angel Bear, Shannon Burns left us to be with Jesus Christ. From her notes. My Bear I love you for eternity. Your Denny.
Thanks for that Harold. I'm beginning to wonder if Jimmy Davis actually wrote any of the songs that have long been attributed to him! Guess we'll never know.
Do you like this song better than the Band's "It Makes No Difference?" Rick Danko's (RIP) vocals are amazing on that song. Without a doubt, it is one Robbie's best songs (oh, that is a touchy subject with Levon RIP)
Hi Tarquin45, Yes Floyd told me years ago who did write You Are My Sunshine..don't quote me but seems like it was tompson.. or something with a son at the end of his name.I would have written it down but I was driving Floyd back from receiving the Lone Star State HOF award.. it was in 2002.. if I can find out I will pass it on to you.. Actually Faron was correct as Jimmy Davis made the song popular but he didn't write it..thanks for your reply..hillbilly
@hillbilly2bill Jimmy Davis is also known as the writer of 'You Are My Sunshine', but apparently that's not true either. Marty also sang 'It Makes No Difference Now' on one of his 'Spotlight' shows and special guest Faron Young actually says 'That's an old Jimmy Davis number' so you see hillbilly2bill he was wrong too.
Love your songs..But I must tell you, Jimmy Davis did NOT write this song. Floyd Tillman did..Floyd also told me who wrote other songs that Gov.Jim said he wrote.. Floyd was like a father to me. I was with him and holding his hand when we lost him early morning 8/22/03..I am sure you would like to research and amend your posting.. Later years Jimmy shared with Floyd as co-writers.. I am sure this was an oversite.thanks for all your songs..

Fabulous. Always loved Marty Robbins. NILANI.

This man is undoubtedly the greatest singer of our time ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Marty Robbins was one of a kind. A legend in the truest sense of the word.
Watching this makes you realize how good he was, and the weakness of some of today's "stars"
Words are inadequate to explain Marty Robins' songs and the feelings that go with them.
Still loving his beautiful songs always

Marty the best of the best, wonderful voice full of emotion great diction and tone , what more can one say.
This man can sing anything
Marty was and still is the master of expressing deep sadness in song. He made things better by facing life as it is and sharing his talents with us!
never heard it done any better.
Thanks tarquin45. Another great Marty song I haven't heard before.

Prachtige song
Mooi gezongen
I know Marty sang this song on his 'Spotlight' show a few years which he sang a bit faster and that was just great as well.
Marty doing an old Eddy Arnold song & doing it right,
A Floyd Tillman classic. First released in 1938 by Cliff Brunner and his Texas Wanderers. Floyd would have enjoyed Marty Robbin's versipn though. God bless and keep you. My Angel Bear, Shannon Burns left us to be with Jesus Christ. From her notes. My Bear I love you for eternity. Your Denny.

Hi Tarquin45,
Yes Floyd told me years ago who did
write You Are My Sunshine..don't quote
me but seems like it was tompson..
or something with a son at the end
of his name.I would have written it down
but I was driving Floyd back from
receiving the Lone Star State HOF
award.. it was in 2002.. if I can find
out I will pass it on to you.. Actually
Faron was correct as Jimmy Davis
made the song popular but he didn't
write it..thanks for your reply..hillbilly
Just wonderful can listen to all these old songs for hours not like a lot of the rubbish that is played now
I love the Band's "It makes no Difference." IMHO, it was the best song on the Last Waltz.
Agree, it was the best song on the last waltz. Scorcese and Robertson should have put Marty in the movie. He would have been in his early fifties.
@hillbilly2bill
Jimmy Davis is also known as the writer of 'You Are My Sunshine', but apparently that's not true either. Marty also sang 'It Makes No Difference Now' on one of his 'Spotlight' shows and special guest Faron Young actually says 'That's an old Jimmy Davis number' so you see hillbilly2bill he was wrong too.
Correction who wrote the song! Floyd Tillman(Country MMusic Hall of Fame )wrote this song in 1938.
Cliff Bruner's record of this song went 20 weeks at #1 in charts printed during 1939 and 1940.
The Bands' "It Makes No Difference" is really good as well. Somewhat similar to this song.
Mr. Davis was governor TWICE!
Lonesome.
Oh, yes
If any of y'all are still here after a decade, you should listen to my version of this good ole song
My information tells me that Floyd Tillman wrote this song.
Love your songs..But I must tell you,
Jimmy Davis did NOT write this song.
Floyd Tillman did..Floyd also told me
who wrote other songs that Gov.Jim
said he wrote.. Floyd was like a father
to me. I was with him and holding his
hand when we lost him early morning
8/22/03..I am sure you would like to
research and amend your posting..
Later years Jimmy shared with Floyd
as co-writers.. I am sure this was an
oversite.thanks for all your songs..
