Dwight is the only one who does this song almost as good as George Jones. He is a great artist who has done real country music proud. He respects the legends of country, I enjoy all of the covers he has done.
Dwight has brought me so much happiness that he will never know. I listen to him every night before I go to bed; have his cd's in my car and also listen on Pandora.
the best voice in music ever have been his fan since early eights. would donate an organ to see and hear him live. he has still got it even though decades have changed he hasnot
This song that Dwight sings of George Jones of "Step Right Up" is so soothing & his voice makes me just melt. I just luv the way Dwight sings this song..It just makes me feel so good..I can hear this song over & over again..I think I just felt in luv!!!
OMG. I heard him cover this song years ago while I was driving and tried to find it because it's so very heart-wrenching. I came upon it while listening to a mix of country songs. Very grateful for finding it.
I found this song a couple months back. I have now had about a dozen "favourite" DY songs since becoming a fan many years ago. This one is my new fave. Often listen to this on repeat. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I have seen DY three times - twice in Winnipeg and once in Grand Forks. Huge Fan - I am 31 years old. While most of my friends are listening to rap, hard rock, pop-country, I am listening to DY on repeat haha even in the GYM :)
I love the beat through out this. I love the violin, it is beautiful. I believe Dwight, you nailed it. Your song writing is incredible, I know this isn't one. But I love to listen to your great version of this one. George would be pleased.
Oh my word, I could hear this a thousand times and more. Dwight, please oh please, will you put "Grand Tour" along with "Dim Lights, Thick Smoke" one CD? You voice is a gift from God.
He is the VERY BEST! Hi voice , his Music his songs HIS BAND don't get any better then this..I have more then 10 CD'S of him and EVERY SONG on that CD is GREAT! Some artist of cd's but only a few good song's. But NOT DWIGHT YOAKAM. Every song is GREAT...So Thank you Dwight Yoakam! Many Blessings to you we just want more and more of YOUR MUSIC. You are so LOVED. Your Life time FAN. Norma MAY HUGS from CANADA.
Dwight is an ultimate classic tonker much Gary Stewart. Such a unique style. Not only a fantastic singer and stage artist but ain' t too shabby when it comes to acting either.
Wonderful, Dwight. George would be honored. Your song "Home For Sale" , is right up there with this one. I love it just as much. Great CD Love forever, from lifelong fan :)
I would give anything to see a video of his cover of ..Send me the pillow..its just incredible..no one comes close to Dwight,he is in a league of his own.I love him
i totally agree! that voice, that songwriting! he has a catalog of good to great songs that is immense. i don't get why so many of the less interesting country performers get all the accolades. he's too much of an artist for regular country radio and too country for alternative music stations that worship townes van zandt and steve earle as they rightly should but pay no attention to dwight. go figure.
come on in, ifyou want to take the grand tour,,can we all agree, hes got some awesome kissable lips, love ya dewight, always have, always will,rest in the peace of your own mind,,,
George Jones is my favorite singer, and Dwight does good on this song. This is not Jones' style, and some people *coughhaterscough* need to see that this is Dwight doing HIS thing, not Jones' thing. Also, "gawd" help the fella who is comparing apples and oranges when he obviously only sees the good in the apple. It takes a lot more guts to cover a Jones song when you are a respected artist and at risk of a bad review, than to talk shit about someone's singing. Just a thought.
hot damn! i have so much respect for george jones but holy cow i think dwight nails this better than ANYone. he writes the best songs so f----- consistently (the resume on this guy) and can take any cover into his nasal country twang and steal the it right out from under the master, whoever it may be. he wears the hat!
HEAR HEAR, AS YOU SAID HE WRITES MOST OF HIS SONGS. HIS CHOICE IN MUSIC IS GREAT. ONCE AGAIN, HE & HIS MUSICIAN 'S ARE HELPING SOOTHE MY SOUL. WHAT A GIFT HE HAS & WHAT A GIFT FOR ME TO HEAR DWIGHT & COMPANY.
pinky860 no you are not his #1 fan. I love his music, his gift has soothed my soul when really down & out. I love his humble, kind ways. I am also a huge huge #1 fan. He is often know in my house, as my boyfriend. [Haha]. If only.
dwight yoakam is my favorite sang and theres only a few thats chosen like dwight and george jones and alan jackson and becky hobbs those are true sanger and who ever dont like can kiss my ass for all i care but try and have a good!!!
@tle1960 What guts are those? Anybody can go right out and sing this song anywhere, anytime, just as gawd-awful as he does. Nobody will kill you. Nobody will arrest you. Nobody will take your house and your money. Wow, how can I get these uber-guts? (and just so you know before you post the typical idiot youtube reply, I'm an extremely happy, successful, jovial guy laughing totally out loud at the 5-year-old banter here, and I don't need "help" or "meds" (:0)
Hilarious, people who say I need "help". I'm not some weirdo, or dark, strange person -- I'm the most jovial guy you could imagine sitting here laughing hysterically about this (:0) (:0) (:0) Dwight's singing is so comical I it makes me laugh till I cry. And attempting to do a masterpiece like this? ROFLOF Sounds like somebody with a hair-lip and deformed vocal cords. The first step in raising your standards up from Mogen-David is to throw out all your Yoakam recordings.
Probably THE most underrated country singer there is.
No matter what this man sings he is absolutely awesome! Love you Dwight!
i,love,county
Dwight is the only one who does this song almost as good as George Jones. He is a great artist who has done real country music proud. He respects the legends of country, I enjoy all of the covers he has done.

Gotta give it to Dwight, he pulls this off with flying colors 👍
Dwight is unbelievable!! What a fine voice he has here. Fantastic!!
Better than the Garth Brooks version. And I like both but Dwight is my dude. Most unique voice to grace country music.

GEORGE Jones another one.

Hey, to each his own and there's no accounting for taste. Personally I think Belushi did a better Cocker than Cocker ..
