    One of my favorite singers. A very distinct Voice. Unkown to most so called country listeners of today. Thanks for sharing

    Now, I've been listening to this song by several artists tonight. I must say this is my favorite thus far and doubt it will be surpassed! And wow to have the answer included is great also! Thank you!!!

      Agree I've listened to several versions, including Faron Young & Sonny James, all ok however none come close to Skeets. he had the hit back in the early 50s.

      My favorite is Faron Young, but this is real down home country, feel like I am at a real barn dance.

      I think this version is absolutely brilliant. But Faron Young's is a winner by a nose. Have you heard it?

      Virtually Real yes I have; I love Faron Young ‘s also, but it’s the really old time sound in this one that gets to me! I’m old and I guess it strikes an old memory. 😊🎶🎶

    that answer song was also a no.1 hit in 1953. Goldie Hill (the golden hillbilly) later married Carl Smith

    first heard this great song in late 52 ,many have tried to cover it but like all attempts at covers they don't seem to have the impact that the original does great song

    To truly enjoy this song, and many more country songs, I suggest you try howling like a wolf when the singer hits a long vowel.

    Though Perry Comp is good, this original version is far better. Unfortunately in the UK at that time we had no access,to country music.
