    I was little when this song was coming out. I can't believe my parents allowed me to sing this. As I grew up, I realized the meaning and love it even more than I did as a kid

      I was 9 and I knew this song word for word pretty much after the first handful of times I heard it,but I had a completely innocent perception of the song,not knowing what it was really about then. Which is probably why my mom didn't care at all that I sang along to it every time I heard it.

    Country music has changed growing up I listen to George jones, George strait, Arron tippin, and a lot more of great TRUE COUNTRY MUSIC SINGERS.but now a days it's all about how tight there jeans are and perfect bodies, ITS NOT COUNTRY ANYMORE ...... God bless America.!!!! Bring our true country music back...

    • @nickramey1141
      @nickramey1141 Год назад

      George was the only true country music singer you mentioned though. Those other guys are too new and not near same time period as great country music.. love their music
      . And when you wrote your comment you lacked the sense of common sense.. from the time George Jones and those real greats where singing guys like arron tippin and George straight came in in their verry very tight blue jeans.. cause country change.. it will continue to change. Just cause it's different don't mean it's not country . Just not the country you prefer and are used to

    This song came out when I was 12, and really starting to get into Country music. We got CMT and cable TV that year in 1991. I was so happy. And this music was not mainstream, so I felt kind of cool for listening to it. I also loved Suzy Bogguss and many of the other songs at that time.

    I forgot how great Sammy Kershaw's music was/IS! I didn't realize how much I've missed hearing this song and so many others like it of the time! This used to be a favorite of mine for sure, even before I realized it's true meaning, really liked it after I completely understood it's content lol And now it's become something that's filled with nostalgic value & holds fond memories and evokes, feelings & even longing for days of the past! At least it takes me back to the feelings and excitement of just starting to explore and experience life! Part of my the soundtrack to my life's movie, if there were a movie to my life, it'd be on the soundtrack! Lol REALLY happy I came across this song once more, it's been years since I've heard it or any of Kershaw's music and I've traveled so far from those days, farther than I meant to at times! Definitely gonna go revisit the country music greats of the 90s and the songs like this that were charting in the days of my teenaged life, this just made me realize I've been gone too long🤎

    Catchy bass line at the end of the song. Great recording, thanks Sammy, to me, one of your two best, and we all know what the other one is.

    Classic - I was born in 1989 if I could ask God I would make it earlier to go through this era
