when I was a boy working in the fields on the tractor I used to sing Jim reeves songs at the top of my lungs ----goood thing the tractor was noisey so I didnt scare the locals he was my favorite singer
I used to sing when I was dressing my tomato garden, the only working place I was alone. I was imagining how nice it will be to love someone the same way Jim Reeves was singing.
Ahh, the memories. I grew up in the late 50s and 60s. The duclet tones of that beautiful baritone voice often filled our home, as Jim Reeves was my mom's favorite. I taught her to appreciate the Beatles and Buddy Holly while she taught me to appreciate the great country crooners. Rest in peace, mom. I still get choked up and miss you so much every time I hear this song.
I remember all the oldies that came through my radio on a small 12 inch black and white tv..Im 83 and I still love them. Thank you You Tube for bringing these wonderful old songs to us.. God bless you❤️❤️🙏🙏
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends
After my grandmother passed away, I heard my mum listen to this song. She told me that my grandparents used to sing this to each other, because they did love each other with all their heart. The song was played at my grandmother's funeral and it's made me smile and cry ever since.
TheHighlander1960 mine too, then when momma passed, he'd sing it to me. now, they're both gone but if I ever want to hear his voice, I listen to this song, daddy sang just like him!
Hmm yeah ... childhood the best phase of life.. everyday I remember those days and get the inspiration for my future .. my fav childhood song is Sliver from Nirvana
"Gentlemen Jim" will live on through his vast recording of musical treasures! His super smooth voice is unmatched even today. Oh what a talent that was silenced way to soon! We miss you Jim...thank God, we still have your wonderful songs and recordings!!
I saw him live in Lethbridge Alberta years ago and when his band took a break he ( the star himself ) stayed on stage and played an acoustic guitar and sang his voice was just as beautiful on his own in huge building
the golden days of my life ,never forget jim Reeves the year 1960 was a very good year for jimmy everyone went mad for his songs, there will never ever be another Jimmy, his songs were allways a very big celebrazioni and of cause he was very very well know all over the world those days o yes those were the golden days iam now 68 years of age and allways playing his beautifull songs, thank you jimmy for your beautifull songs .R.i.P. amen.

My dad listened to Jim. Somehow I am still able to love the music. Somehow over all the evil my own family did to me for so many years. Music is lovely like that. In memory it has a purity to it that can heal..
What a precious soul. His music lives on. I found a treasure trove of lp's just abandoned at a thrift store. I bought them for 50 cents a piece. I hope that a country music artist can do an updated tribute. He had so many valuable songs what a true artist and living legend.
Such a wonderful man with a great voice!!!! Happy childhood memory watching and listening to "gentlemen jim" with you daddy...know this was one of your favorite songs and I remember you singing along with that "twinkle" in your eyes!! Miss you so!!!!
This beats the more modern versions of a song by the same name. I tried several, seeking what I know and love, and who better than Jim Reeves to provide exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for posting this.
wow...my grandad also loved jim reeves ;) he would always play his guitar and sing this song...his voice sounded so much like jim reeves! he recently passed away, and this is the first time i could listen to the song and be happy, without bawling.
I agree with all the nice comments below , this was also my fathers favourite singer it brings back fond and loving memories of a wonderful happy childhood. More like him please in the world
Have i told you lately is sung Awesome by Jim Reeves to me he,s a great singer with a golden voice he can just sing anything its sad he passed away so tragic God Bless Jim RIP
It may be that Jim Reeves sang it before Elvis but Elvis´ version is the most well-known. Jim Reeves had a wonderful voice, I remember him from the 60´s but another kind of singer than Elvis who was an innovator.
Awesome Jim Reeves greats singer of all times lovely golden voice sad the day you passed away in 1964 in a terrible plane accident God Bless Jim Good night x
i can remember my dad playing this song on a sunday morning forty years ago. love the version by the overtones , but jim is still the masterwithout a dout. luv you dad RIP.
I heard this song as a kid and it did not mean much until i was an adult and found myself divorced from my wife of 15 years. And that was 15 years ago and this song tells exactly how i feel to this day
This was my father's favourite singer and everytime I hear Jim sing, it brings me back to those early years when his music was played in our household. My dad passed away almost 15 years ago and I miss him to this day, but this music will always remind me of the great man who was my father.
when I was a boy working in the fields on the tractor I used to sing Jim reeves songs at the top of my lungs ----goood thing the tractor was noisey so I didnt scare the locals he was my favorite singer
I sang on tractor too.
Bad news, your voice carries better that the tractor.
You could be heard.
Jim was greatest.
I used to sing when I was dressing my tomato garden, the only working place I was alone. I was imagining how nice it will be to love someone the same way Jim Reeves was singing.
Haha..so... Are you now a great singer too? 😂😂😂
The very important thing is...just deliver your gift before you experience death
My mother would sing this to us kids.Not on a tractor 🚜 lol😊

I'm sorry for your loss. Dealing with death is hard
His music will never die...
We don’t hear easy listening songs like this now. Lovely 😊
Mom used to sing this all the time.

I have been a fan of Jim Reeves since 1960. I was in the 5th grade.
Hello friend, how're you doing today?

Gentleman Jim......my favorite country singer...
He is one of my favourite country singers. One of the Best.
I sing his songs most days.
This is so beautiful. They don't make voices like that any more.
I love this Jim Reeves version of this song. It was my dad's favorite.
I am so Happy that that just by Chance l came accross this Clip . It was one of the favourite songs of my Loving departed husband.
Mine too I don’t know if we can be friends

This song brings back memories of my school days
Hello friend, how're you doing today?
He had a beautiful voice and sang quite a number of fabulous songs, "He'll Have to Go", "Blue Side of Lonesome", "Anna Marie" and many more...
I saw him live in Lethbridge Alberta years ago and when his band took a break he ( the star himself ) stayed on stage and played an acoustic guitar and sang his voice was just as beautiful on his own in huge building

Aneta Clawson ? Hi what was it you intended to say?
my sentaments exatly
There's nothing like the real thing, baby. This is by far the very Best version of an old CW song. Jim Reeves has the best voice for it.
every one should sing this song to the ones that they love
I remember these songs from Jim Reeve when I was a young child. My father had most of his songs on a record player.
I remember listening to this song when I was a child, not on WIFI, but on my parent's HiFi.

Love the gentlemen cowboys, such a different day and feel.

Heavenly voice leading to an everlasting voice

Romantic sentiments - unsurpassed in the velvet voice of Gentleman Jim.
The melody of his voice conveys true feelings. The music to fall in love with
