i agree with all these comments. he had a h---- of a voice and there was nothing he could not sing. he was and will always be the best. we love and miss u Marty!
I love country music.....this song makes me miss my mom so juch, she was not even 49 whwn she passes away.........thank you Marty for bringing so much musical pleasure to my life...
i have always loved marty robbins music, a unique voice, i remember the day he passed, was on my way to work,,, heard his music @ 5 in the morning,, figured something was wrong,,,,
He was one of the great balladers and its been said he's been forgotten in Nashville and thats sad. Ive seen the Marty Robbins museum exhibit at Opryland and though small every fan of Marty should see it.
You can't fake talent, and you certainly can't fake emotion... This is...this is the sort of music you can't 'teach' your average 'aspirant' musician who ends up on VEVOtube.. Straight from the heart.
Country music has always been sneered at for its sincerity and heartwarming emotion, but singers like Marty, Jim Reeves, Slim Whitman, Charley Pride, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard to name just a few, are loved and revered around the world. Not forgetting Kitty Wells, Dolly Parton, Melba Montgomery, Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette et al of the girl singers. To quote a blurb from a well known (now defunct) Sunday newspaper, 'All Human Life Is There.'
Bad modern country music is what is sneered at. The proper classic country music that Marty Robbins and similar singers like Moon Mullican, Hank Williams, Jerry Lee Lewis, Jim Reeves, Jimmie Rodgers and Elvis Presley sang is universally respected and always was and will be. Also it is common that people do not realise a lot of the old styles as country music!
D'you know what Carol? Marty has never (in my opinion) received the kudos his absolute brilliance deserved. He deserves to be on a par with Nat King Cole, Andy Williams, Vic Damone, Al Martino, Bobby Darin, Perry Como or whoever, but unfortunately the bias against country music (especially here in the UK) probably counts against him.
The record I have of this lovely song is by Slim Whitman, have also heard another great country singer singing it Hank snow, but as much as I love Marty (he was my late husband's favourite) singing it I prefer Slims version best but all three are great.
l think you are wrong The old time Cowboy and Hill Billy music now Country had a one hour programme every Friday at 5 pm pre 1939 playing all the hill billy tunes Henry Hall and Geraldo were the two main bands
A wonderful song, but one could say that the postman in the story would be aware that a letter edged in black would contain bad news for who he was delivering it to
My mother used to sing all the old western songs that she learned when she was young. This was one of her favorite.
Incredible voice, you are so missed Marty ❤ 😢
He is like Merle Haggard, God gave him talents and he blessed all of us with Beautiful Music! Love Merle and Marty!

Marty IS Country music.
By the way this is one of the greatest Country song
ever written along with "I´ll be all smiles to-night".
l remember those days when we used to wait for the postman to come.
great
I agree , with Jim Reeves and Merle Haggard three greats.

A great Oldie first heard it way back when sung by Frank Crummitt
I love Marty's singing, but I like Jim Reeves the best on this song.

Best tere is and never be bet number☝☝☝
very old song by bradley kincade
Hard to listen to this song and keep dry eyes.
l think you are wrong The old time Cowboy and Hill Billy music now Country had a one hour programme every Friday at 5 pm pre 1939 playing all the hill billy tunes Henry Hall and Geraldo were the two main bands
@barrygioportmorien1 They are both classic
Good but I think Hank Snows version of 'convict and the rose' is better
A wonderful song, but one could say that the postman in the story would be aware that a letter edged in black would contain bad news for who he was delivering it to
But then again Tar ´Hollywood reality´ rules, right ?
