    Jones is the greatest country western singer the world has ever know.
    I was addicted and dependent on alcohol by the time I was 18.
    I drank everyday up until about 10 years ago.
    The only reason I quit is because heroin and bnboose got too expensive together, and I had to pick one.
    Quitting booze was easy compared to that shit.
    Clean and sober for 7 years now, at 37 years old.
    George, you got me through a lot, and this track gets me everytime.
    I love you old friend.

    Been an Alcoholic most of my life, plenty of times I’ve cried to George’s voice. When you can relate to the music it speaks to the soul. If I had any twin who was a damn singer and song writer, it was George Jones. I was a train headed downhill with no brakes, and I still struggle with the pain of regret and addiction. RIP George, your voice still lives on.

    Now that I’m closer to the end of my life, than the beginning , this song really speaks to me on a personal level. We don’t realize when we’re young , how the choices we made then, will weigh so heavily on our minds when we’re older. Whether they were good or bad, we will live and surely die with the choices we’ve made. Thank you Mr. Jones for all the music. RIP.

    My grandfather passed away about five years ago, and George Jones was his favorite country artist. It's hard to explain, but every time I listen to him, I get so emotional and it takes me back to great times with my grandfather. Man I would do anything to have him back and for us to be able to listen to Jones one more time together.

    I was literally weeping at his funeral. Such a big part of my childhood and my grandma's favorite singer. She still has several records of his from years ago. Man, thankfully we'll always have his music to remember him. The sad part is that I was never able to take my grandma to a concert, I was looking to do it during his farewell tour but that never happened. RIP George.

    To me, this is the best country song ever written cause it represents the life I chose with drugs and drinking and now I am paying for those mistakes. I used to listen to this song in my darkest hour and now I stand in the Light. Things are much better now thanks to God, Jesus, and the Spirit. All glory be to the Trinity but thank you George for the piece of your heart you left with us.

    The greatest showman and singer. The epitome of country music. I think everyone can rested to this song no matter what they have done or not in their life. Unlike some, George Jones acknowledged the demons that he had endured all of his life, and tried to fight the wrongs. We all have vices. Whether it's drinking, smoking, cussing, gambling, gluttony, etc. No one is perfect on this Earth. George Jones sang a lot of songs that touched peoples lives over the years, but this one is a masterpiece.

    I heard of this song shortly before typing this, when I learned that Alan Jackson sang his own hit "Pop a Top" then abruptly switched to singing this song. Once he finished, rather than bask in the applause, he got off the stage & into his bus as fast as he could. George & Nancy Jones, watching the show from their home, were delighted to see Alan stand up for him that way.

    Oh his voice got better with age and it was always great. I love this song He just got better and better. Love you George. He made some tough choices like most everybody does but man he put it out in his music and made it big. Him and Tammy were top of their game and so glad we have their music to enjoy. Miss them.
