    Anybody still listening in December 2024? Whenever I hear this song, my fingers stop trying to find another song. This is a dream line up. Flaco and Pete bring it to life. Buck is one of the best performers ever. Dwight is solid gold with one of the most unique voices out there. Note to self or others that might take action - the songwriter Homer Joy needs a Wikipedia page.

    So...let us all give Yoakam credit for bringing Mr. Owens out of retirement, for this wonderful performance...and (!) for having the great Flaco Jimenez on this one.

      ​@@akalksander9184 the cycle of country music is funny. A new generation of artists comes along and the old generation of fans say it's not country while the new generation loves it, move forward and those artists are revered and the generation that loves them is now say the neglect generation of artists aren't true country.
      Happened to Waylon, Willie, and Coe. Then it was Sawyer Brown, Dwight, Alan, McGraw, and Garth. Now it's Wallen and Bryan.

    People don’t realize how close the country and norteño culture are. Banda music and country music has so much in common, and even our cultures. My family is from a small Pueblo in central Mexico in the state of Zacatecas, we have ranchers, cowboys and cowgirls, we love our cattle and horses, cowboy hats and boots, rodeos etc... I always like to find out similarities rather than differences

    Dwight Yoakam is the only artist I have in my music library that I can listen to for hours and not get tired of it within an hour. 😵‍💫 He has the most amazing voice. I’m not a die hard country fan. Don’t care for twangy music. Except for Dwight. He makes everything he does sound classical in a whole new cool way. If ya get me meaning. 😆❤️

Funny how she fucking loves me to death and calls me for advise lol. in my 46 yrs on this planet I have learned a few for sure things. People hate the truth, people hate people who are willing to tell them the truth regardless of feelings. The government is a business and we are their slaves. Most believe what they are told if they are told it enough (general media) and if the few with common sense and integrity do not shut down the liberals they will win and destroy the planet trying to "save it".
