    Some of the realest and honest lyrics from a male's perspective- and Johnny's voice shows humility and strength. He brought it home. Classic

    Country music these days really doesn’t even sound like country so when I listen to this is actual country

    • @ricardo_valadez
      @ricardo_valadez 3 года назад

      I mean music evolves, modern folk and hip hop doesn't sound the same as it did in 70's, 80's and the 90's. Nothing Is permanent. But I agree today's country music sadly did not evolve to be good.

    I still remember my mom and Dad took me down Spencer Highway where they were filming Urban Cowboy and my mom was soooooooooooooo happy. The restaurant they are at was on shaver and Spencer and Uncle Bob's house is still in Deer Park where I live today. The gilleys warehouse was still up in the early 2000's. Not the bar but the big white warehouse behind it until they finally tore it down. Breaks my heart ❤️. I love and miss you Mommy

    3-4-12 I just saw Johnny Lee last night and WOW what a fantastic show not only does he sound wonderful he is a fantastic entertainer!!!, We laughed at his jokes, sang with him on songs and I cried at the end when we all sang god bless America. It was just an amazing experience he makes you feel like you are his friend and he is glad to have you there. I would go again tomorrow if I could. if you get the opportunity to see him don't miss it.

    Great song. Falling in love is not like being in love. The brain just works different, and knows the difference. It's always one-sided, very few are loved as much as they love. Sad facts are true sometimes. Very rarely do people love equally, but it does happen. Lucky you!

We had a great time. I even got to sit on his lap. To take a pic with him. I told him I wouldn't ...that I'd squish him. But he told me to SIT. So I did. He still looks pretty darn good ... *wink*. I never thought at 30 years ago...that I'd be doing that 30 years later. *wink wink*. I got goosebumps hearing him
