      I do not know how he concocts this magic, but he does. I saw him in concert once . . . and I was totally bored, as was the rest of the audience . . . until the high profile warmup band quit and Dwight scooted in. Wow! What fun.

    Many, many moons ago, I drove to San Fran listening to AM radio (that's all the truck had) after the trade show I bought myself a cassette player and Dwight Yoakam Cassette and listened to that for 5 days driving home. I really do love his voice and Music.

    Dwight Yoakam and Faron Young are some of my favorites to listen to. But no one can hold a candle to Dwight Yoakam. The dude is phenomenal and country music has robbed him of countless number one hits. He sold millions and millions of records and had multipul back to back platinum albums but he only had two #1 hits. That's ridiculous

    My mom passed away a year ago. She had a hard time passing over - hated going new places by herself. The morning when she finally made it an aide in her seniors' home played this song for her. My mother and father always liked Willie. I sobbed through the entire song and the gentleman trying to help my Mom hasn't been able to sing it since BUT it worked and she was able to make the crossing. Can't listen to this song without remembering. I love Dwight and always will but it's Willie who makes me cry.

    A "best country songs of all time" show had Mr. Yoakam as a guest commentator. "Faron says 'Hello Walls' & the walls answer back, 'hello, hello.'" I can never hear it the same again. Thank you so much for posting this clip!

  • @sueadt9261

    I just love to WATCH Dwight singing...I know he's talented but he really shows how much he enjoys singing when he grinds his heel back & forth..& sometimes he does a backwards kick!! He's definitely different from all the rest!!! I've seen him live only once a couple yrs. ago...maybe in 2017...he was older but it still was a great show!!!

    • @terristacy1879

      You say what well if I can further explain is that Dwight Yoakam is a genuine country artist in the traditional style of the music he's not phony like today's so called country & by respect them again he's genuine in his admiration for them if any of that makes any more sense than my first comment hope so
