    My parents listened to this song every morning. The hospice nurse began singing it with them. It’s a special memory. The day my daddy died, this song was playing in the background. He took his last breath and the music just stopped. It still gives me chills when I hear this song. Don Williams was the only concert my parents ever attended. I grew up listening to daddy singing his songs.

    It was absolutely AMAZING!!! 👏 I could NOT have asked for a better concert!! He really was the *Gentle Giant." His music 🎶 was always pure and from the heart. ❤
    Truly an amazing performer singer and song 🎵 writer. The BEST of the BEST!!! We miss you Don. You were a legend in your own time!!!

    Bless you Chantel. My mom passed on 08 February 2005 from breast cancer. She was almost 72. These country musicians were the true country music artists! Don Williams is in that rank! He wrote and played his songs and they all came from life experience and from the heart.
    Your mom is in good hands. We never stop missing our moms... but take heart, it does get better with time.

      Your daddy obviously knew GREAT music when he heard it!!
      He has been mine and my daddy's favorite singer all our lives and it's because of Don that my daddy found a wonderful lady who became my stepmother. All his adult life, people everywhere would stop him and tell him he looked just like Don Williams (he did...only shorter) and one night he walked into a Denny's restaurant, was stopped by a lady and her daughter...and they asked him the question..."has anyone ever told you you look like Don Williams?" He told her the same thing he's always told people "I've heard that all my life." She eventually became my stepmother and I'm so thankful she did because with her, my daddy finally found the happiness he so deserved...and all because he looked like Don (only shorter)

  • @jamestaylor2920
    @jamestaylor2920 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I first heard Don Williams around 1974. On the radio, 45, 33 1/3, 8-track, cassette, compact disc, and now digitally. I can attest that over the past 46 years the music has gotten clearer, cleaner, and brighter, but the words and emotions are still the same. To paraphrase another of the Gentle Giant's songs, "those Williams boys still mean a lot to me ... Don, Hank, and Tennessee". The man, that voice, a chair, a guitar, a microphone, and a few backup musicians. No autotune, dancers, or choreographed steps. The only pyrotechnics or light show takes place between the ears of the listeners.
    He has gone to his resting place. I will not miss him ... he will be alive as long as his music remains in us. That will be at least until the day I die and that's good enough for me.
    Help keep Don alive ... pass him on!
