My father worked for years as a farmer and a contractor. He was a DIYer before it was a thing. He didn't work 9 to 5 but more like 5 to 9. Parkinson's slowly robbed him of the ability to do hardly anything. It got to where he needed help just standing up. After he passed in 2022, this was one of the songs my family selected for his visitation. This was playing when we walked into the visitation room and I just lost it. I still can't listen to this song without tearing up, and I doubt I ever will. I love you Dad, and I will always miss you.
I haven’t heard this song in years….. thank you for bringing this back to my heart not just my ears I’m so incredibly sorry for the loss of your dad praying for you
This song brings back so many memories. I lost my dad in 1992. He was 41 and I was 11. I sang this song during an elementary school concert the next year. Some people couldn't understand how I could do it, but singing was our thing. It helped me process at the time. However the grieving process never stops, it just evolves. Thanks for your reaction and sharing your experience. Sending love and light 💖🦋
I lost my dad in 2007 unexpectedly and this song daddy's hands was one of his favorite he would listen too. He couldn't sing a lick but he would listen to music all day long when he could. even tho its been 16 years since i lost my dad , i still cry when i think about him, but its ok cause that means he's never forgotten. And I lost my mom in 2019 just before Christmas. They said it was of a broken heart. They said she gave up cause she didn't want to be without my dad any longer. He passed away just before their 50th wedding anniversary. My mom was lost after he passed.
God Bless you! I could tell that truly touched you! Please don’t cry, you will see your Daddy again. This has reminded me of my Daddy since it came out. I lost him, 6 years ago. And I definitely took some pictures of our hands together. My Mom passed when I was 7 so I was basically raised by him. He worked SO HARD, literally to keep us all fed. He had actually retired and went back to work about 6 years later, just because he loved it and wanted to. He passed at work with this steel toe boots on. The only way he would have wanted to. I miss him SO MUCH! But we had him way longer than my Mom did. She was only 31 when she passed. 😢
This song has been a father day song for years reminds me of my granddad and when dad died in 2020 it gives me a connection to him. Remember all the good of your dad it through those memories he lives on.
We played this at my great grandfathers funeral. We never understand why our father's aren't always at our basketball games, or cheerleading events for the ladies for example but there's always food on the table, the lights are on, clothes on our backs. That's a huge way father's show their love, they work hard to give us everything. I now do the same things for my wife and children and right now they don't see it, but some day I hope they do. Someday I hope they see I love them more then life itself and they are why I do what I do and work as hard as I do
God bless brother. Sounds like your dad was a great man and that truly makes him a father. Any one can make a child but a true man is a father. Lots of love and hugs go out to you.
Indeed, there is beauty in death; for it is a release from the burdens and pain of this worldly plain. My sister graduated from Earth 7yrs ago & I'm still not ok... I know I never will be. I have always loved singing but her not so much, THIS was one of the few songs she would sing harmony with me on. This gets me every damn time 😥😥
There's no doubt Rickk, that your dad is so proud of the man you are. Wrapping my arms and heart around you and all who love and miss their father. XOXO
My aunt's used to sing this every Father's Day at Church for my Papaw. The last time they sang it for him was at his funeral. Bittersweet memories but this song always makes me think of him.
We played this at my dad's funeral. He passed in December 2007, exactly 18 months after I got married. So sorry for your loss. The first Father's Day is always hard. Thinking of you. x
I haven't heard this song in a very long time but it's a very beautiful song that she wrote for her dad. My dad lives in ny and I haven't been able to see him in awhile cause cost so much money to fly.. but I do call him.everyday. I miss him and wish I could Spend the day with him..
Great song written by Holly Dunn to her Dad for Fathers Day. Holly is no longer with us. Both my parents are in Heaven now. So l know what you're feeling. May God Bless & keep you in his arms.
Can you maybe get to Holly Dunn's "No One Takes The Train Anymore"? There is a video for this one on RUclips. There are so many of Holly's songs I'd sure like to see you and others react too. "Strangers Again", "On the Wings of an Angel", "Lonesome Highway", "Just Across, The Rio Grande", "Sometime Today", "It's Allways Gonna Be Someday", Temporary Loss Of Memory, "I Laughed Until I Cried". The catchy "Let Go". The list goes on and on. "The Stronger The Tie" is just an incredibly beautiful song that will leave you mesmerized. "When No Place Is Home" is very beautiful, but it is so sad, almost too painful to listen too. It evokes a very vital message.
I lost my dad in 1972 this song was played at my niece wedding and my brother in law cried that was their dance i know it is hard rick on this day it was hard for me also
I was going to post this on the Conway video you did, but I see you beat me to it. God Bless you brother. I am glad you recognize the value and necessity of fathers to their children to raise them. I grew up without my dad and learned this the hard way and thanks be to God that I survived. Even though I never knew my own father's hands that well, I have become very familiar with the Hands of the Creator and the Hands of Jesus, for I wave been in theirs my whole life.
This was my song for my dad and I sang it at his funeral. I haven’t listen to this song since then and he passed in 05. So I want you to know how special it is that I’m watching this reaction. No promises that I’ll get through the whole thing though.
My Daddy passed away in March. I keep waiting for it to get easier. This song is hitting me so hard. He was my best friend. I feel like I’m walking around in a fog with half of my heart in the grave.
Oh my God I was just trying to find this song to see if you had heard it because I know that your dad passed away. I lost my dad March 4, 2020. He was the first Covid patient and I want to die but they didn’t even know we had Covid, so thank God we were allowed to be by his side before they shut down the hospital week after he died, but I rented out a room on the ICU floor and I got to spend a lot of special time with my dad while people are at home sleeping so at night I will curl up in his bed with him and I would play daddy‘s hands. This was a song that growing up my dad had three daughters, and we always had this special song for us. We would always sing it to my dad, he was a John Deere man and he really did work his hands till they bled. I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. Nobody wants to join this club and losing my dad March 4, 2020. I lost my mom three weeks later on 23 March and I lost my sister April 20, 2020 to a seizure where she hit her head and died and my baby brother and I love my heart my soul my baby brother 20 years difference. My mom had him at the same time I was pregnant with my daughter. They grew up as siblings more than they were uncle and niece he was murdered November 20, 2021 poisoned by fentanyl he had no clue that that was gonna be what was in the pill that he was taking what she thought was Xanax, and instead it was 6 mg of fentanyl which blew up his heart losing my entire family in less than 18 months the only reason why I am sitting here writing this message is because my daughter gave me my first grandbaby, and I have something to look forward to after my brother died. Otherwise, I guarantee you I would’ve joined him. I just couldn’t handle losing him. It was just too much losing my mom, my best friend losing my dad and my other best friend losing my sister and losing my baby brother was just too much for anybody, I couldn’t leave my kids but boy did I feel like it especially during the pandemic and being in the home and not going anywhere. There’s a few songs that I want you to listen to so I’m gonna put that in some of your newer messages, and a newer videos.
OK this was over a year ago already. Can you please react to something else? Holly had 4 Number 1's "Love Someone Like Me", "Only When I Love", "Are You Ever Gonna Love Me?, and "You Really Had Me Going". She should have had many more. Alas, Holly was basically Blacklisted from Country Radio before the end of 1991. Interestingly, none of her Number 1's would be my first choices for you to feature here. I'd prefer some Top 10's like "Why Wyoming", "Strangers Again", "It's Always Gonna Be Someday", "What You Love Does Too Me" There Goes My Heart Again" or her Duet's "Maybe" with Kenny Rogers, and "A Face In The Crowd" with Michael Martin Murphy which was huge Top 5 song in 1987. Or how about some lesser-known stuff like "No One Takes The Train Anymore" that should have been a Number 1 hit? Some of my personal favorite songs of Holly's are "Lonesome Highway", "On The Wings of An Angel", "Just Across The Rio Grande", "There's No Heart So Strong", "Sometime Today", "The Stronger The Tie", "Old Love In New Mexico", "When No Place Is Home", "Temporary Loss Of Memory", "Let Go", "If Your Heart Can't Do The Talking", I Laughed Until I Cried". Oh man, there are so many. I could go on and on. Her catalogue is very deep and impressive.
I can only wish I had a father like this! But the Lord never makes mistakes and I’m now 63 years old and forgive him for being a pedophile to his 6 children….
My dad died back in 1967 at age 57. He ran a steel lathe 9 hrs everyday. Never made more than $2.00 per hour. Six kids. Never missed a day sick. I was the most lost young boy ever.
If Rick finds "Daddy's Hands' to be a Tear-Jerker, just wait until he hears her song "When No Place Is Home". So intensely moving, Almost too painful to listen too, despite it's brilliance.

I lost my dad in 1993, he was 41, I was 15. This is the song that brings me back to my short time with him. ❤
I lost my daddy 39 years ago and while it gets a little easier I still cry when I hear certain songs and this is one of them.

Sorry for your loss. The day my dad passed in 2007, I was driving home on the freeway and this song came on and I just lost it.
One of my favorites, feel my hug I'm sending it .........
I’m so sorry for your pain and loss 💔

She wrote this for her father and the recording in his father's day card, not knowing it would be Released.
Thrift shops be the best. Taxes is government theft. Your dad speaking facts.
Big facts ❤️
I feel your pain
Thanks for the reaction
Great song. Love your reactions! Best song for a lost father, in my opinion, is "My Old Man", by Zac Brown Band. Gets me every single time.
We played this song at my Pawpaw’s funeral. He passed away in 2011 and he was an amazing man. I miss him more every day.❤
I lost my dad in 1972 this song was played at my niece wedding and my brother in law cried that was their dance i know it is hard rick on this day it was hard for me also

Im sorry for your loss. We played this song @ my dad service when he died (12 years ago on jan.2. ) my mom died 3 months to the day after he did .
This song was about my step father. Soft and kind when I was crying. Pa Pete's hands. Were hard as steel when I done wrong
Your dad sounds like a kool dude. RIP Rick Sr.
I love this reaction.
You are a great man and I will bet you are a great father

You have to listen to Drive by Alen Jackson
Monsters by James Blunt….trust me
Holly Dunn passed away years ago , I believe of a heart attack
I found my daddy dead in 1985 I screamed maybe I meet him soon
I can only wish I had a father like this! But the Lord never makes mistakes and I’m now 63 years old and forgive him for being a pedophile to his 6 children….
I'm not sure why this recording sounds so odd. It doesn't sound like Holly Dunn. Love this song though.
My dad died back in 1967 at age 57. He ran a steel lathe 9 hrs everyday. Never made more than $2.00 per hour. Six kids. Never missed a day sick. I was the most lost young boy ever.
Holly Dunn left us on 11/14/16 of cancer. Gone too soon.
If Rick finds "Daddy's Hands' to be a Tear-Jerker, just wait until he hears her song "When No Place Is Home". So intensely moving, Almost too painful to listen too, despite it's brilliance.
