I had the same remark about an immature person who made a similar remark about the song Whiskey Lullaby. Both this song and WL were written by Bill Anderson.
I cry every time. My heart breaks for him. He was young and foolish (as we all were) and didn't listen to our hearts. Instead I listened and observed my mother scrutinizing every move my "friend" made and so did he. It was too much. And now I'm crying again.
Jessica, I am that old man, just not THAT old man. I sit alone in the in the park where she and I used to go almost every day with the same regret, sadness and despair. A small piece of my heart dies every time my mind rewinds the clock that was once "us".
Happens a lot more than most men realize! So bittersweet! One that I had to move away from, I lost track of her and cannot find her, when the realization that someone you loved comes to you may never see her again in your lifetime! That just never occurred to me, but just think of some of the friends you went to school with, how many of them if you wanted to call them or visit them could you get in touch with? Most of mine I would not have the first clue of where to look!
I had one slip thru my fingers I was 18 she moved away never herd from her again. Im 67 now. I still think about her and what mite have been. I can't listen to this song without tears.
Many versions but this one by far has the most emotion of any of them. I saw Steve Wariner in Edmonton in March 1992 with the girl I loved more than life itself so every time I hear this it makes me think of that time. Her name was Carrie Ann Russell and she was my first true love. It was not meant to be and now I have the greatest wife in the world and would not change anything. If not for Carrie though my life would have taken a different direction and would have never met Heather. Love Steve and he is an amazing song writer also.
@Chef Mime "The Tip of My Fingers," also titled "The Tips of My Fingers," is a song written and originally recorded by American country music singer Bill Anderson. First included on his 1962 album Bill Anderson Sings Country Heart Songs, the song was a Top Ten country single for him in 1960.
@@billeverett429 That is correct ,Bill Anderson wrote it and I am sure that he was happy that so many other people recorded it because he made money off of everyone of their recordings also !!!

Back in these days if you were listening to Steve Wariner,Vince Gill, Ricky Skaggs,Patty loveless, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Etc you can hear them backing each other on several songs. Great era in country music 80's and early 90's were awesome
You slipped right through my hands, Carey. Somebody took you when I wasn't looking. I'm healthy, happy and successful, but regret I missed the Grand Prize, you. Love You.
This is the song that converted me to country music. On a family trip when I was about 15 years old (probably around 1991) going to see some relatives in Overton Nevada we stayed the night in Mesquite. The clock radio in the hotel room would only pull in country stations. This song was playing that morning and it clued me in that country music was not all about getting drunk and honkey tonking, or getting drunk and driving through a corn field, or something about beer or whiskey (a lot of stupid songs played on country stations these days). There was some good emotion involved in some of it. I've been a country music fan ever since
28 year old still listening to them . Since I was 12 ❤️. Country music was pure pure . Country music told like stories !! Beautiful I have an ol ol soul . The country gospel is so beautiful as well continue to praise the Lord !
Every time I hear this song it reminds me of a girl that I knew back in the 80s that I went to school with, and she was crazy over me and I was young and stupid I kept letting her go so many times until she gave up on me and got married and every time I hear this song and watch the video of that old man it reminds me of me.
I love Steve Warner and I had a privelage to see him in person in Tombstone Junction ,Whitley county Ky in the 80 s I kissed him on the cheek .He's an awesome entertainer ! Played The hand that rocks the cradle ,at my Mothers funeral !😍
Geez that was painful to watch and listen to. I’ve lived it as I’m sure many of us have. Leaving this earth without the one you’re supposed to be with is the scariest and most painful thing I can think of. 😪😪😪
The first time I ever heard this song was your concert Edmonton Alberta in 1992. There may be older versions but yours is absolutely the best! I heard this song with my girlfriend Carrie Ann Russell so it always brings back good memories of times past.
nemesisgenius yes, I remember very well. That’s when my mama used to tour with Ronnie Milsap. I got to meet many of the great country singers, back when country music sounded country.
nemesisgenius Ronnie and his wife Joyce are both two of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Ronnie’s best friend Billy Coren was my mama’s manager. Her album back then was being played nationwide. One of her songs even made it on the charts and David Allan Coe wanted them to record a song together. But singing isn’t all peaches and cream like people think so mama backed out. But it was fun to get to always be back stage at places like the grand ole opry and meet all the great singers, especially the ones who are no longer with us.
The late great, "Whispering Bill" Anderson wrote and originally recorded this song. Bill didn't get a push for "Tips of my fingers", Joe Allison brought the song to Roy Clark and told Roy this is a hit song, Roy recorded it and had great success and so did Eddy Arnold, Jean Sheppard and Steve Warner. This isn't only a 5 time hit, it's pure country gold.
When that I had your love " kicks in , oh my goodness, what a voice Steve Wariner is one of God's gifts to the world ❤️ when country music was Country music ❤️ One of my Favorite Song❤️. I love that song so much I love Steve Wariner so much ♥️💞💝❤️🩹🧡💜💙💚💓💛🔥💯🎶🎤🎵💋💋🎸🥰🦊💘🤩💖💕🌹😍😘❤️
Wow Steve what an awesome song...... If I wrote this I would be so amazed with the passion that I had harnessed into this song..... I have always been a fan and will be forever, the whole world has enjoyed your talent , and I for one do truly enjoy your music! Hopefully I will learn this song in the future and do a cover on it..... I could never do it justice, my greatest hope is ......I hope they can recognized it LOL! Be wishes to you and yours.... Be safe ! Oh I almost forgot..... most of the Country music songs these days say the same ol thing..... "lets drive my truck thru this one horse town and go down to the river and drink beer with the tail gate down" they really suck these days !
US Aviano base in the northern region of Italy were I was born and raised heard this song and Steve Warner beautiful voice singing this song. Beautiful voice, of a human being would like to know. :)
I've always loved Steve Wariner .His voice and singing style reminds me of Vince Gill.I Once heard Roy Clark sing this same song,however Steve brings it completely to a whole new level.
@Chef Mime Hi There welcome to the Southern hemisphere of Auckland New Zealand,, You are right mate about "Roy Clark" (Who could play just about anything), but this was a great version by SW.
i think god took my love away in 2006 we were married only 12 yrs before she passed away i went to work got called home she was gone she was only 60 yrs old rip my beautiful retired marine wife

Extremely underrated singer!
Yes tjustin... IMHO also... !!! And always has been.. has never, EVER gotten half the recognition he deserves as a singer, OR as a musician... again, in MHO...thank you..😊😊
Absolutely! One of my all time favorites.
Was just saying this very thing today!
This man is multi talented and yes, very underrated.
He's never gotten the recognition that he deserved nor has he asked for it.
He's won numerous awards.
Who's listening and chillin out with some great tunes. 2024!!!!
If Country music was a talent contest... Steve would take it hands down.
Steve Wariner is one of God's gifts to the world. ❤️
Being a musician myself I realize just how great , Steve really is.
❤OHHHHH yassssshe is❤
Gods precious gift of music and great looking
Certainly is
Every song He ever performed and sang is so wonderful
Any 2024 still listening to this music. Great song
2025 now. ❤️
The people who dislikes this video is not a real person.....
I had the same remark about an immature person who made a similar remark about the song Whiskey Lullaby. Both this song and WL were written by Bill Anderson.
They are losers
They’re brothers Osborn fans 😂😂 and bud light drinkers.
Humanity still exists
It’s very good ,but you need to listen to WEST SA , no comparison.
This is my favorite version of this song. Steve Wariner did a hell of a job on it. It always plays in my head because it's such a great classic.
yes, imo even better than bill andersens.. sorry bill!
I love his songs and voice!
I like the Roy Clark version too.
I love this song. This was back when country music was great. This ''music'' today aint country, its crap!
That's why I stick to old country music. Love Jim Reeves, Alan Jackson, Vince Gill, Randy Travis, Keith Whitley... The sadder the song the better
@@KittyKat-ym4hz Do you like Dwight Yoakam??
@Chef Mime I'm sure that Steve Wariner got the rights to record it and the video.
@Chef Mime It's not stealing to cover a song and anyway, it was written by 'Wispering' Bill Anderson
Truth
When Country music was Country music...
The part at the end when the old Man sits there with regret and sadness kills me everytime.
I cry every time. My heart breaks for him. He was young and foolish (as we all were) and didn't listen to our hearts. Instead I listened and observed my mother scrutinizing every move my "friend" made and so did he. It was too much. And now I'm crying again.
Jessica, I am that old man, just not THAT old man. I sit alone in the in the park where she and I used to go almost every day with the same regret, sadness and despair. A small piece of my heart dies every time my mind rewinds the clock that was once "us".

When that "I had your love" kicks in, oh my goodness, what a voice.
One of my immediate recognizable voices in all music,
I could listen to him all day!!!
RIP my beautiful San...Aug.15th would of been 31 years...that cruel Alz. disease is the worst....I love you sweetheart...
I could listen to this man sing a phone book
I had one slip thru my fingers I was 18 she moved away never herd from her again. Im 67 now. I still think about her and what mite have been. I can't listen to this song without tears.
Right there with you...
Did you follow your head at 18 instead of your heart? Thats what i did and regret.
@@finalvoyage35 Me, too. I listened to the static and noise instead of the music.
Reading and crying while reading this .
I'm right there with you, Steve.
"Regret" is hard to swallow sometimes.
Very well said
Awesome song by an awesome singer with another awesome singer singing backup Vince Gill. Love this version. Thank you Bill Anderson for writing this.
Love the older country songs
He is wonderful❤❤❤
Love it. He don't get recognition he deserves
absolutely beautiful voice! One of the greatest!
I've listened to just about every cover of this classic ever done. And no body doesn't better than Steve
A fantastic 🎵 I ❤️ song I love it
This has to be the saddest Steve Wariner song ever and it was one of the first I ever heard. Now as a 30 something I can relate to it .
It doesn't get any easier at 44. Be the best you can and love comes and goes.
It doent get any better at 60 either :(
First one I heard was lonely women make good lovers sadly never met any tho :(
Bill Anderson wrote this song. He sang it and Jean Shepard also sang it. I enjoyed everyone. Such a powerful song.

Hello Shirley how are you doing today?
I love this song by him its one of my favorites.
FANTASTIC!!!! Miss hearing you on the radio. You are truly one of the best artists ever!

And be honest with you the right singers like that anymore because country music is just died off
Shenandoah the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band George Jones Merle Haggard Keith Whitley of course George Strait and Vern Gosdin they were all good one
How about we pray for traditional country music to come back to the U.S.A. 🇺🇲

I’m 23 right now & that line up is amazing , still listening to that generation music keeping it alive forever !

Agreed!
Steve Warner is a a great singer. This is one of my songs from him.
You mean Bill Anderson.
Beautiful song and voice!!
