    Keith has a song called “ Don’t Close Your Eyes” that is a must listen. I hope you can listen to it. His voice is one of the most unforgettable in country. He passed way too young, and the industry was devastated.

    Keith was a Prodigy. Started touring as a musician too young for his youthful mind to handle what he was exposed to. Painfully shy, Keith turned to alcohol. Keith was The Voice of country music in only 3 albums! Beyond amazing musician, Singer and Songwriter. Gone too soon. “No Stranger to the Rain”….a song of his life. Love and miss you Keith.

    Both are good and deserve a listen. There’s a tragic story concerning Keith Whitley, he was married to country singer Lori Morgan he suffered from alcoholism finally dying from alcohol poisoning in May of 89. Upon hearing of his friend’s death country singer Vince Gill began writing some lyrics then put them away.A few years later after his brother died he came back to finish the song Go Rest High on that Mountain

    Keith was a wonderful talent in the country music in the 80's. He was the husband of country singer Lori Morgan. But he had demons and died at age 34 of acute alcohol poisoning. His death left a void that was hard to fill. I loved his gorgeous baritone. At the time he died, I was an alcoholic myself and his death should have been a cautionary tale for me, but it wasn't. Vince Gill, who was Keith's friend, penned "Go Rest High On That Mountain" after his death. The first verse was about Keith and the second was about his brother when he died. The song is super emotional and has probably been played at as many funerals as "Amazing Grace." Glad you took the time to appreciate a talent that left us far too soon.

    Alison did the song for a tribute album for Keith. It is very different than Keith's but still stunning. I could never say which i like best because I love them both. Be forewarned. Once you hear Alison's voice you may become addicted. It is the voice of an angel.

    Keith was such an amazing artist. He only recorded 3 studio albums while he was alive. One of which was released a few months after his death. Then 2 more albums were released with outtakes and recordings that were never released years after his death. Still with only 5 albums of original content, he made into the Country Music Hall of Fame. I believe there is only one artist to have made such an impact is such a short period of time. And that would be what many consider the greatest singer/songwriter ever Hank Williams. Who's single was in 1946 and he died January 1st, 1953.

    I was a little kid in McDonalds in Tyler Texas and a tour bus was outside. We went in and I was standing there at the counter beside Lorrie Morgan. It was 2 or 3 weeks after Keith died. You could tell she was having a tough time. I still said hi and she could tell that I knew who she was. This was early days of CMT and they were super famous for that era. Keith was one of my heroes when I was a kid.

      Funny, I forgot about the Boyzone version. discovered that fact a number of years after watching Ronan as a judge on X-Factor Australia. Since I loved Keith Whitley's song, I had to check out Boyzone's version. While Ronan sang the song beautifully and is certainly easy on the eyes especially to young girls/women back then, I preferred Keith Whitley's version simply because the song was ''believable''. I have seen more recent videos of Ronan performing the song that are really good though because he's a man singing this song and not a boy. Believable. That may be weird to some people, just my opinion. :)

May 9th, 1989 - Keith overdosed on alcohol and left this earthly life.

      They're nowhere near equal! Keith's version is the penultimate version, the epitome of a great song. If Allison had done it first, it would have been "meh..." at best, dislike it at worst, whereas Keith's version, I loved from the very first time I heard it.

      @@josiahrobinson6135 🙄 Whatever dude. Music, art and most things in life are subjective. You are entitled to feel how you feel and so am I. One question though... who is "they're"??? I only mentioned Allison's TRIBUTE to Keith cover.🙅‍♀
      Seems to me you are a troll looking to spread negativity. I will have absolutely no part in that.
      Peace and light...💞

      LOL! Obviously, the "they're" refers to the two versions of the song. 😂😂😂
      "You're free to feel however you want", but if you have a different opinion than me, you're " a troll looking to spread negativity. " LMAO! The 1⃣9⃣9⃣🐍 CobraCrew roasts each other better than that, but thanks for playing. Without Keith's version, there's never have been an Allison version. No puns intended, but for the record, I do like Allison's version. I just think that Keith's version is way, way, way better. You have yourself an EPIC night and an EPIC Independence Day!🤘🤘🤘

    You want to surprise your wife with a song especially right before you’re leaving out?
    Check out Forever by Dennis Wilson if The Beach Boys off their sunflower album
    If either of you watched full house growing up you’ll remember the song when you hear it from a particular episode
    Great reaction as usual
    RIP Keith and thanks for sharing your talent

    What a loss, what a voice. I loved his music, please listen to Allison krauss cover this song. They actually took his voice after he died and put it in the video with her as a duet, absolutely breath taking.

  • @conniekarr4403

    Keith was married to Lorrie Morgan, a beautiful singer in her own right. After he died, she recorded “a picture of me without you” sooooo gorgeous!!!

    Allison is a VERY AMAZING singer. Voice of an angel. Keith is also the same but died way to early. He would've been so much bigger than he is. But Definitely should check out Allison krauss to. Amazing musician and singer

  • @melissacaddell2604
    @melissacaddell2604 ปีที่แล้ว

    Allison sings like an angel but no one touches Keith Whitley. His voice is like home. Please do Don't Close Your Eyes. Beautiful. His voice is like Randy Travis to me. Both voices r like butter.

    Keith's surname is (was) Whitley. A successful songwriter and singer, married to music artist Lorrie Morgan, Keith was cursed with addiction and died in 1989 at only 34 years of age. RIP.
