I play this song instead of drinking, taking pills, doing harm to myself, going and beating the mess out of those that have caused me pain, and thinking of worse things. Thank You, Mr. Rucker, for this life saving song.
Janice Hope. Your still hanging in there. God loves you. Speak to him he’s yr best friend not them other people. Don’t let that sun 🌞 come down on you and win. Just keep staying strong.✝️🧎♀️🧎♀️🧎♀️🧎♀️
Hey DARIUS RUCKER I hope someday to meet nor see you your the meaning of MUSIC and your MUSIC keeps me aLIVE in this LIFE time so play on with your TUNES in AMERICA HELL YA DARIUS RUCKER
In 2012 I took 33 heart pills and was forced by a doctor that tar stuff witch I threw up for weeks, my high school sweetheart for most of my life left me for someone. I was raising 3 children with him and he had become an addict and a abuser. Child custody court for eight more years, after everything I was the crazy one for no reason and lost my kids. I have made sure all these years to stay consistently in my childrens life. I know I am supporting to be a present parent but when you have to fight and prove your sanity it’s a whole different fight. Don’t give up, don’t stop fighting your kids are worth it and there are many in this world on your side! Im not a perfect or great parent but I love my children and by God they will learn that I’ve always loved them. Just keep fighting!
Right! This version has so much emotion. He sang it different times but this version is Wow! I love how his band members look at him after the piano segment ...priceless....everyone felt the energy through the vibrations he expressed.
This song is a reminder of one of my life long friend. She would lose her way time and time again, and I would go and try to find her to bring her back to us. Addiction is a terrible thing and may I remind people please don't judge, because you don't know how they got to that place in life! Bless her dear soul!
I'm sitting here singing way out of my range/tone. I get what you're saying - he bring my back to the mid 90's and I just get lost. Haters ain't stomping on our mood!
When you listen here, you hear Darius improvising left and right... that means this song is STILL near and dear to his heart for some reason.......................
Look it up, real life he was the drug addict, indifferent to her, but it made more sense as a song for him to sing it from the other side. It means so much to him because he was that guy, he had a loving, patient woman and he dismissed her time and time again. I won't forget or forgive myself for being that guy.
I played this song on one of my solo road trips from Chicago to Michigan, which is where my family lived. Had the sunroof and the music blasting. No husband, no kid's yet.. Freedom and bliss
He says this is my first country song I've ever wrote right from the start. Thus is country not pop. U guys just ant never heard country music this good before.
I quit listening to country music back in ninety-six cuz all the country singers are going this is the best country voice I've heard in years God bless you brother and live long I love you anyways with Hootie and the Blowfish😅
I heard this on the radio as a kid and never really thought much of it. I never realized this songs lyrics were so deep. When you listen to it on the radio it kinda falls through the cracks. But after reading them I can't help but cry at how sad this song is....
No love relationship with a stranger ever worked out for me. It all goes the same way. It starts out wonderful the gifts the admiration the compliments all the good stuff. Then you get married fight a little bit then you start having children and you fight a little bit more and then before you know it the love dies at least for me. I wish I could see somebody in this world today ,who has that love forever in their home. It would really regain my faith in marriage in the year 2023. As far as I see keeping that love 😘 that you had in the beginning is the hardest to keep together, so to all those lovers that are going to be getting married make sure he loves you more than you love him, 🥰💗🥰 God bless
I loved this song from Hootie and the Blowfish. But as he as aged Darius's voice has more gravel and character and now I am blown away by him singing it.
@@mitchconner4456 Yes You're Right. But They Still Overlook Him. Not Even BET, EBONY, JET NOR UNSUNG HAS INTERVIEWED HIM...I Saw In An Interview With WSJ Where As He Expressed How Hurt He Was Concerning Those Mentioned Above, Not Wven Acknowledging Him When He Was Number One In The World...WoW! Let's See What The CMA Do This Year. They (CMA), Didnt Nominate Nor Let Him Perform Last Year. As Darius Would Say, "It Won't Be Like This For Long!"
Same. I know your comment is 3 years old, and here we are, together in this difficult time. This is my first time hearing this. Stay safe. Stay sane. This too shall pass.
He's so underrated as a vocalist, he is up there with the likes of Chris Cornell. He can sing pretty much whatever he wants, any genre, his range is amazing.
Not sure I agree completely with the underrated part, but I agree with all the rest. It’s fascinating to me just how many styles of music he can sing well!
His talent is unsurpassed. He is wonderful. Not many people wouldn’t be able to find one of his songs that they could claim to be an all time favourite across the board.
Who's Still Listening 11/2021? When I first started listening to Darius Rutger, the only thing I knew was lead singer of "Hootie" & The Blow Fish. So way bk then ( Duh) I thought his real name was Hootie. Not until he went Solo, did I know his real name was "Darius Rutger" so I Believe, he made the "Right Move" in doing so and making a all comes down to is that Darius aka Hootie, has Alway's been & Alway's Will be, the Same Talented Musician/ Artist, that we have all loved!" I wish Darius/ Hootie would come play at the Brand New (2021) Amphitheater, in Wilmington N.c. I Guarentee Darius aka Hootie concert Tickets Would Sell Out Fast! a few and then after the Concert, ya could go & Chill, at one of Wilmington 's Beautiful ⛱ Beaches. ( Also,that way, us older Fans, ( Aka B- Boomers 😆) wouldn't have to drive, all the way (2-3 hrs) to Raleigh, NC, to see you play. ( Although bk in the Day, I saw quite a few amazing concerts in Raleigh, Nc). God Bless Darius/ Hootie!
A story I will tell til the day I die; Darius came out to Fort Bragg for a MWR concert. Free, no door charge, outdoors. Started pouring and shit down before he comes on stage. Two hours or so later, they reopen the field. Shortly after Darius came out and played his full set. It was amazing he stuck around at all!
Darius, I sing this song every day, because it’s what I had to do to my husband and he was a navy chief petty officer. It was so hard to do with three children. Thank you for helping me through it. Even though it still hurts and our children are grown. Thank you.❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰
God Bless you and your family for your family’s service to our country! I’m sorry, that happened, sometimes it has to happen even though we don’t want it to happen. I’m at that point 20 yrs in the Air Force with kiddos, it’s gonna be a tough road
Last Monday (June 3), the 10th annual Darius & Friends benefit concert, charity golf tournament and auction upped the total funds raised for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital by country star Darius Rucker to over $2 million. This year's event raised over $425,000 on its own, a single-year record. Now that is a Star! Thank You Mr Rucker for being a true leader. ❤️
My favorite singer of all time, Hootie and the blowfish was such a good band, Let her cry is my favorite song ever. It has so much depth and meaning and when paired with Darius Ruckers voice, it is perfect
This man's range is better live than in any studio and that's hard to come by. Live performances normally don't sound better than the studio for many artists. Sometimes they do, but nost that much... Captivated and inspired!
Great artists fill the world with incredible insperation Charlie Pride, and Darius, I can listen to Darius and his incredible music all day long. Great with hootie, even better on his own, God bless and I truly hope he continues to Bless us with more great music
I love the song because I've never cried over any guy. I was always the one that broke the guy's heart. I think? I love the song because I love learning about what happens. when One love goes south. Great song. Darius, thanks for sharintg❤
I gotta play this song every once in awhile. There was a girl that was my first love, and about 6 years ago she broke my heart. I still have nightmares about her. And I loved her so much I kept opening the door to her to entertain her when she would come knocking again. She was my best friend. I was just a toy to her. The last time she came back, I thought that was gonna be the time she stayed. I wept cause I'd never thought I'd see her again. We kissed, we laid beside a creek, and i thought she'd finally chosen me. She told me I was still the best guy she'd ever kissed. And that was the last time I ever heard from her. And so this song is one of the few things that keeps me sane, knowing I'm not alone. It's one of the only reasons I don't a go and buy a gun and blow my brains out. I'm sorry I wasn't enough Nicki
[Verse 1] She sits alone by a lamp post Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind She says Dad's the one I love the most Michael Stipe's not far behind [Verse 2] She never lets me in Only tells me where's she's been When she's had too much to drink I say that I don't care I just run my hands through her dark hair And I pray to God, help me fly away He said [Chorus] Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain Let her sing, it eases all her pain Let her go, walk right out on me now And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be, let her be [Verse 3] This morning I woke up alone Found a note standin' by the phone That said maybe, D just maybe, I'll be back some day Like a fool, I wanted to look for you You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do So I sat back down with a case of Bud and a bottle of Jim Beam and I felt sorry for me And said [Chorus] Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain Let her sing, if it eases all her pain Let her go, walk right out on me now And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be, let her be now, let her be [Solo] [Verse 4] Last night I tried to leave She cried so much I can not believe She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago Hmmmm She went in the back to get high I sat down on my couch and started to cry for my Momma I said, Mamma please won’t you come and take me outta here She said, boy [Chorus] Let her cry, her tears fall down like rain Let her sing, she can sing, she can sing, and it eases all her pain You gotta let her go I walked out on her you see And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be, yeah [Chorus] Let her cry, yes her tears fall down like rain Let her sing, if it eases all her pain Let her go, no, no I walked out on her, I left her you see And if sun comes up tomorrow Let her be, no, no, no, no, no, oh Let her be
This song popped up again and it’s always great to hear it again.🌹❤️🤙😇The lyrics are so true. Remember though that it’s not your fault someone caused you pain. It’s the person who hurt you that will carry the burden.. 😢❤Cry when you need to but remember always they lost a love of their life.
Darius Ruckers concert I attended in 2020 was a pure slice of heaven his voice is unparalleled and seeing him live may have healed a part of my soul 🙏🏽🙌🏽🤍
Cracked Rear View remains my favorite album ever! I've been a fan since the release. I'm not necessarily a country fan but Darius Rucker pulled it off. Beautiful voice!💗
I absolutely adore Darius and I’m from South Carolina and my very good childhood friend who had the band “Tootie and the Jones’s” introduced me several times to him and he is the nicest most amazing artist I’ve ever met in the music industry. Funny thing is years later here I am CEO of my own record label Platinum Door Entertainment, llc and I am executive A&R for Blank Kanvaz Records as well as executive management for Death Row Records. I can honestly tell you that most artists have a God Complex whether they are a current relevant artist in the industry or not but Darius is the exception to that rule. He’s just amazing!
I totally agree! I hope I can see him in concert someday. I actually wish I could have been at this particular concert. What a powerful rendition of this song!
This song holds so much meaning to me. The exact same situation..the same emotions..the growth..was experienced. The understanding I have for this song and it's meaning helped me to heal. I cannot listen to this song without shedding a tear. It's real.
My dad always said if he could have any singer sing in our backyard at a hangout or grill or party Darius would be his top choice, this coming from a 50year old man who wouldn’t put Darius in his top 10 favorites
Rucker, a pure voice. Effortless, with timber, vibrato, and passion. Timber doesn't just mean trees. He also is great with lyrics. I believe his best hit song. Great verses. Great chorus. Great main line: "Let Her Cry" and a great line, "If the sun comes up tomorrow." I actually have no memories of this song. I only found it recently.
Always will be my FAVORITE song And FAVORITE voice of ALL TIME. No one could make you cry like this man and his voice. Just reaches in and breaks your heart
Such a distinctive voice. My ears would just perk up when I heard HBF come over the radio waves. This song really lets you hear his voice in full fabulous mode💕
THIS MAN CAN SING… STILL, IN DECEMBER 2023!!!!
LOVE HIS MUSIC!!!
My Mom and Dad got me this cd when I was a kid. Maybe the best album I ever got.
I play this song instead of drinking, taking pills, doing harm to myself, going and beating the mess out of those that have caused me pain, and thinking of worse things. Thank You, Mr. Rucker, for this life saving song.
Get yo girl stay strong.
@@sandragates6106 Counting Crows. August and Everything After..... Class ❤️

I'm 65 Music is my Medicine
He's one great heck of a singer 🎶🎶
Was excellent when he was with Hootie and the Blowfish. Now, as a country singer, Darius Rucker just rocks. One of my favorite voices ever.
Robbiesgranny me to
Robbiesgranny He really does have a great voice. Very soulful here
Hey DARIUS RUCKER I hope someday to meet nor see you your the meaning of MUSIC and your MUSIC keeps me aLIVE in this LIFE time so play on with your TUNES in AMERICA HELL YA DARIUS RUCKER
that public reply was from APRil SWEETING
Us too
He doesn't just sings, he tells a story with so much passion and soul, what an artist ❤
There’s a huge difference between a singer and a musical artist. Darius is a musical artist.
So true! I love this comment!
This man's voice is to me like otis redding...I can feel everything he is saying...just awesome
Absolutely! Great taste in music! Love Otis Redding too!
Great comparison. Now I'm listening to Otis Redding.
Wow man... 25 years later, you killed that. Best version I've heard..
Darius can make you believe every word he sings. Very unique in that aspect
Try harder
His video I got nothing
You said it! He is truly gifted!
DARIUS is the real deal
In 2012 I took 33 heart pills and was forced by a doctor that tar stuff witch I threw up for weeks, my high school sweetheart for most of my life left me for someone. I was raising 3 children with him and he had become an addict and a abuser. Child custody court for eight more years, after everything I was the crazy one for no reason and lost my kids. I have made sure all these years to stay consistently in my childrens life. I know I am supporting to be a present parent but when you have to fight and prove your sanity it’s a whole different fight. Don’t give up, don’t stop fighting your kids are worth it and there are many in this world on your side! Im not a perfect or great parent but I love my children and by God they will learn that I’ve always loved them. Just keep fighting!
As of now 283 haters our there. Why the thumbs down . This man is a true American country music singer. He can't be beat.
It's a pisser for sure
Eh, why focus on them. There's over twenty thousand reasonable people with a heart for good music.
This guy has the voice and the ability to sing what ever. He rocks
This is just the best version of this song. Can't get better than this.
Right! This version has so much emotion. He sang it different times but this version is Wow! I love how his band members look at him after the piano segment ...priceless....everyone felt the energy through the vibrations he expressed.
Well its his song that he wrote himself so he sings it better than anyone else.
It's become the version I hear in my head when I think of this awesome song 🎵
This song is a reminder of one of my life long friend. She would lose her way time and time again, and I would go and try to find her to bring her back to us. Addiction is a terrible thing and may I remind people please don't judge, because you don't know how they got to that place in life! Bless her dear soul!
Amen!
Can happen to anyone of us❤
There but by the grace of God I
Damn Darius puts that soul into country. He makes me swoon like a midwestern white girl...and I'm an asian dude outta LA haha
Wtf lmao
Daris it the best
Check out Chris Stapleton. I love Darius but Chris will make you drop your man panties
Lmaooooooooooo
I'm sitting here singing way out of my range/tone. I get what you're saying - he bring my back to the mid 90's and I just get lost. Haters ain't stomping on our mood!
Not just a singer, but a SINGER. Crafting the notes as he goes along. Mesmerizing.
So true 🎶👍👏🏻
Outstanding voice no one like him can't stop listening to him amazing
Your so right, he molds those notes at a seconds notice, and perfectly every time!
Yes- nailed it!!
When you listen here, you hear Darius improvising left and right... that means this song is STILL near and dear to his heart for some reason.......................
It's the first country song he ever wrote, while he was still part of Hootie and the Blowfish. This song is very special to him.
He's awesome I love his voice He's definitely one of the best!
I'm going through that right now and this song has helped me tremendously to finally make up my mind enough is enough good riddance
Look it up, real life he was the drug addict, indifferent to her, but it made more sense as a song for him to sing it from the other side. It means so much to him because he was that guy, he had a loving, patient woman and he dismissed her time and time again. I won't forget or forgive myself for being that guy.
Ok
I played this song on one of my solo road trips from Chicago to Michigan, which is where my family lived. Had the sunroof and the music blasting. No husband, no kid's yet.. Freedom and bliss
Sounds wonderful
Country, pop, call what you want, that is an awesome voice. Rucker is THE man
He says this is my first country song I've ever wrote right from the start. Thus is country not pop. U guys just ant never heard country music this good before.
Kinda national guard but yeah.
I don't find it pop at all. It is real.
thank you.
When we as a culture stop giving props when it's due... We fail..
Why am I crying I miss the 90s
Here i am again
I quit listening to country music back in ninety-six cuz all the country singers are going this is the best country voice I've heard in years God bless you brother and live long I love you anyways with Hootie and the Blowfish😅
Darius Rucker should be at #1!!!!!!
Darius has such a soothing voice.I love his music.I wamt to see him win awards
He deserves the recognition i
I heard this on the radio as a kid and never really thought much of it. I never realized this songs lyrics were so deep. When you listen to it on the radio it kinda falls through the cracks. But after reading them I can't help but cry at how sad this song is....
Yes, and this particular version is so powerful!
No love relationship with a stranger ever worked out for me. It all goes the same way. It starts out wonderful the gifts the admiration the compliments all the good stuff. Then you get married fight a little bit then you start having children and you fight a little bit more and then before you know it the love dies at least for me. I wish I could see somebody in this world today ,who has that love forever in their home. It would really regain my faith in marriage in the year 2023. As far as I see keeping that love 😘 that you had in the beginning is the hardest to keep together, so to all those lovers that are going to be getting married make sure he loves you more than you love him, 🥰💗🥰 God bless
I will keep you in my prayers, and I hope someone will one day come along who will love you unconditionally and make you the happiest person on earth.

I heard this song in 1995 and for some reason it brought tears to my eyes...
Great songs have a tendency to do that...
Absolutely! And this version is even better! It made me want to tear my heart out!
This is not an easy song to sing...my man makes it look effortless
I loved this song from Hootie and the Blowfish. But as he as aged Darius's voice has more gravel and character and now I am blown away by him singing it.

Flippintickled, Inc exactly. I saw him years ago in Chapel Hill NC. Heard this song then. Still love it and Darius.
Hootie and the Blowfish sang it--different tempo. This version is indescribable.

Still one of the best voices in any genre of music. Please keep singing to us Darius❤️😊
Awesome performance, 90's music was bar none the greatest era of music, honestly the last great era of music, IMHO.
I've been watching the grand ole opry, and came across this man. What a legend, one of the best country singers I've heard. Brilliant.

Last Monday (June 3), the 10th annual Darius & Friends benefit concert, charity golf tournament and auction upped the total funds raised for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital by country star Darius Rucker to over $2 million. This year's event raised over $425,000 on its own, a single-year record. Now that is a Star! Thank You Mr Rucker for being a true leader. ❤️
My favorite singer of all time, Hootie and the blowfish was such a good band, Let her cry is my favorite song ever. It has so much depth and meaning and when paired with Darius Ruckers voice, it is perfect
i remember my mom playing this when i was 16 in high school on a saturday afternoon. This hits deep for me that i will never get this back in my life.
This song brings back memories. Wish I knew those were the good old days before they left.
I completely felt this comment.. wow time is flying right
This man soothes your sole .
Amen
Great person too.
And that smile.
Oh yes the soles of my foot are so relaxed. Lol jk. He really does.
This man's range is better live than in any studio and that's hard to come by. Live performances normally don't sound better than the studio for many artists. Sometimes they do, but nost that much... Captivated and inspired!
Having heard him live, I would agree.
Eggcellent
Totally agree
Preachhhh

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. Please 🙏 keep helping me to get through it. I left him 25 years ago and still hurts.
Great artists fill the world with incredible insperation Charlie Pride, and Darius, I can listen to Darius and his incredible music all day long.
Great with hootie, even better on his own, God bless and I truly hope he continues to Bless us with more great music

I'm sorry I wasn't enough Nicki
[Verse 1]
She sits alone by a lamp post
Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the most
Michael Stipe's not far behind
[Verse 2]
She never lets me in
Only tells me where's she's been
When she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care
I just run my hands through her dark hair
And I pray to God, help me fly away
He said
[Chorus]
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, it eases all her pain
Let her go, walk right out on me now
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, let her be
[Verse 3]
This morning I woke up alone
Found a note standin' by the phone
That said maybe, D just maybe, I'll be back some day
Like a fool, I wanted to look for you
You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do
So I sat back down with a case of Bud and a bottle of Jim Beam and I felt sorry for me
And said
[Chorus]
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain
Let her go, walk right out on me now
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, let her be now, let her be
[Solo]
[Verse 4]
Last night I tried to leave
She cried so much I can not believe
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
Hmmmm
She went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and started to cry for my Momma
I said, Mamma please won’t you come and take me outta here
She said, boy
[Chorus]
Let her cry, her tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, she can sing, she can sing, and it eases all her pain
You gotta let her go
I walked out on her you see
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, yeah
[Chorus]
Let her cry, yes her tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain
Let her go, no, no
I walked out on her, I left her you see
And if sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, no, no, no, no, no, oh
Let her be
This song popped up again and it’s always great to hear it again.🌹❤️🤙😇The lyrics are so true. Remember though that it’s not your fault someone caused you pain. It’s the person who hurt you that will carry the burden.. 😢❤Cry when you need to but remember always they lost a love of their life.
Darius Ruckers concert I attended in 2020 was a pure slice of heaven his voice is unparalleled and seeing him live may have healed a part of my soul 🙏🏽🙌🏽🤍
I will never tire from listening to this song
Hes a beautiful voice an a very handsome man.
Cracked Rear View remains my favorite album ever! I've been a fan since the release. I'm not necessarily a country fan but Darius Rucker pulled it off. Beautiful voice!💗
Mine too, such an amazing album
I had this cassette tape in 8th grade. One of my favorites. Class of 1999
One of the best artists in the world.
I absolutely adore Darius and I’m from South Carolina and my very good childhood friend who had the band “Tootie and the Jones’s” introduced me several times to him and he is the nicest most amazing artist I’ve ever met in the music industry. Funny thing is years later here I am CEO of my own record label Platinum Door Entertainment, llc and I am executive A&R for Blank Kanvaz Records as well as executive management for Death Row Records. I can honestly tell you that most artists have a God Complex whether they are a current relevant artist in the industry or not but Darius is the exception to that rule. He’s just amazing!
can i please get an intern job at Death Row? :D
the emotion in this version is so incredible. he is one of, if not the, best singers out there
I totally agree! I hope I can see him in concert someday. I actually wish I could have been at this particular concert. What a powerful rendition of this song!
Hands down amount the top 5 male vocalist. World wide! #1 in my book. Sounds as good live as studio production
Man, the memories this song brings, it would take forever to write. One of my all time favorites. Darius was and is still awesome.
My fave of his. Have met him and he's the nicest and funniest guy, very down to earth and WICKED talented. He sounds better live than recorded!!
Mannnn I’d love to hear this dude in person 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿😎😎😎✊🏿🎯🎯🎯🎯💣💣💣🔊🔊🎧🎤🎬
Facts 💪🏼💪🏼
Some artists sing with their voice, some with their heart....This man is all heart.
Him and his band is magic.

This song holds so much meaning to me. The exact same situation..the same emotions..the growth..was experienced. The understanding I have for this song and it's meaning helped me to heal. I cannot listen to this song without shedding a tear. It's real.
This dude rocks no matter what genre.
Darius is the best country singer.. there's no one better.. thank you for allowing us to hear your voice God bless you...
I adore this angel.
After 2 years still my favourite video on RUclips
This voice, tension, and emotion is Everything!
I love that he calls this a country song. Now that he's full country everything he sings sounds country.
True talent never fades away! It doesn’t matter what category he sings in, it comes from his soul and resonates to everyone who listens!
He has one of the best voices I've ever heard. Hootie is great!
if i hit the lottery and throw a party he is a must at any price
agreed
Timothy Obrien I hadn't thought of that, but now it's on my list. Thanks!!! I'll remember you and make sure you're there too...
Timothy Obrien I agree with you
My dad always said if he could have any singer sing in our backyard at a hangout or grill or party Darius would be his top choice, this coming from a 50year old man who wouldn’t put Darius in his top 10 favorites
Blake Sheldon every time I hear that song
Love this guy-so much emotion and life in his voice. This was the song that made me a fan of his.
That voice that runs through your veins... 💙
One of the best ballads ever
Well that just broke me. One of my all time favourite songs sung the way it was meant to be sung. Darius is so underrated. He is in my eyes a genius.
First time I have seen Darius live..brilliant, absolutely brilliant..such emotion..
This is a great song this man is really talented I love all of his music
Hadn't heard this in years. Such a great song
Rucker, a pure voice. Effortless, with timber, vibrato, and passion. Timber doesn't just mean trees. He also is great with lyrics. I believe his best hit song. Great verses. Great chorus. Great main line: "Let Her Cry" and a great line, "If the sun comes up tomorrow." I actually have no memories of this song. I only found it recently.
It’s spelled timbre. Pronounced like tamber.
Darius Ruker is underrated. Great voice.
The soul!!! Man his soul shines so bright. Top three or four live voices. Beautiful.
Who else would you put on that list?
Yes Yes Yes!!! D's voice is mezmorizing to the soul, I never tire listening to him sing. 💃
You and me both! And I love that name! Are you from Hawaii?
One of the best musicians ever. His voice is amazing
How does this only have 3 million views ? Poured his heart and soul into this song
Always will be my FAVORITE song And FAVORITE voice of ALL TIME. No one could make you cry like this man and his voice. Just reaches in and breaks your heart
Yes very talented voice
Such a distinctive voice. My ears would just perk up when I heard HBF come over the radio waves. This song really lets you hear his voice in full fabulous mode💕
This song really brings back the bitter sweet high school years.
Please tell me that Darius is both a kind and generous man. I want to believe that humanity occasionally approaches some kind of perfection.
He undoubtedly is.
This is my little, Kathrine, whenever I hear this. She's the reason I idealized that love can't save them all....
