As a buddy Holly fan from the Dinosaur age, I have to hand it to Raul for singing a song composed by Buddy, dedicated to his wife Maria. I think he 'hit it out of the box' with his singing. He sings it like Buddy wrote it. Good job , Raul
This is a difficult song to sing and keep it as sweet and pure as the original. This is the best version I’ve heard since Buddy Holly’s - really great job
I love this song and Raul sings it so beautifully... the same way it was originally done. A great honour for Buddy Holly's wife, Maria Elena, the lady whom he sings to. (Claudette Raymond)
@Tom Lee Nashville has missed the mark...Raul is heavier but very good looking, a little shorter and a little heavier doesn't change that he is a fantastic talent !
Raul does a great job singing this with the cream of LA session musicians backing him. Special poignancy in singing it to Buddy's widow, Maria Elena, the inspiration for the song. Maria obvoiusly approves.
Always one of my favorite songs. Raul is such a wonderful singer...probably better than Roy Orbison that he covers so well. I want to give a shout out to Waddie Watchel, Leland Sklar, Russ Kunkle, and the other musicians on this recording. It was the first recording by a " Rock and Roll" artist to use strings, and Buddy wrote every part. The three named artists are part of the second generation of the " Wrecking Crew" studio musicians. Leland currently tours with Lyle Lovett, Waddie played with Linda Ronstat for many tours ( I saw them), Russ and Leland toured with Jackson Browne around the world. These are expert musicians using their talent for a great voice.
Beautiful rendition of this massive talent gone way too soon. 😢❤️🎶🎻💖 One of the saddest days ever in the history of music. Such extremely talented young men gone way before their time. My late father introduced me to Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens 🙏🙏❤️
Beautiful song & a very beautiful voice, just amazing Raul & his beautiful voice. Band is beautiful to. God Bless you Raul & the Mavericks 11-19-21 , yep it me Lol
Didn't even know who he was until the Buddy Holly anniversary TV show. Looked him up, found the Mavericks too. All great stuff. Super performer in any genre.
Raul has the sweetest voice and can sing anything,great talented man,Buddy Holly would be so proud of him ❤xx.
A spectacular voice singing this tender love ballad. SUPERB. Thank you Raul !
Beautiful memories of Corpus Christi...Raul and his Mavericks are an excellent band of musicians.

Den Conn well said
He really has a way of making a song his own. Never seen anything like it.
Buddy would be proud.
Anyone know who the lady is that they show several times?
@@gregw7278 She's Buddy's widow Maria Elena
This man is gorgeous, that smile, his voice, wow. I could watch him sing all day and all night.
Ann Smith Yup. Amen
i have to agree with you, fabulous voice......& such a good looking man 4-25-20
So good looking ! And the dimple ! He has such a big voice....I just love listening to Raul !!!
only Raul could pull this off. Sings the words with the same passion Buddy wrote them. I think Buddy would have approved
Tony Farmer , , A,,!!
I think Buddy would love it, esp. w his wife, Maria Elena, singing along...so moving...thank you
Yes. And his voice could melt the heart of any woman alive, no doubt.
Such a natural voice
Roy Orbison and Raul Malo the two most beautiful men’s voices.
Yes 100%
Nothing but the best, FABULOUS VOICE, 🤗♥️♥️♥️ From Frances uk 👍
Probably the best rendition of this song I ever heard and a loving tribute to both Buddy and María Elena.
Raul sings with such ease......you can tell Buddy Holly's wife was struck by the way he sang it.
This is a difficult song to sing and keep it as sweet and pure as the original. This is the best version I’ve heard since Buddy Holly’s - really great job
Agree buddy was the greatest innovator in rock and roll. His music will. Last as. Long as music exists
the greatest singer of generation, period.
One of very few who can do covers as good or better than the original version.
RONNY ALLEN I agree his covers are fantastic I could listen to his voice all day
Me too
Sara Niemietz can as well.
Raul has a beautiful voice, just gorgegeous 6-2-24
he is beautiful
There is nothing he can’t sing wow what talent
This man can sing has the voice of an angel
True
One of the best renditions of this beautiful song
This should have more views and likes. It's beautiful.
Ever since Roy Orbison passed, Raul has been my favorite male vocalist. Incredible!
I love this song and Raul sings it so beautifully... the same way it was originally done. A great honour for Buddy Holly's wife, Maria Elena, the lady whom he sings to. (Claudette Raymond)
That was Buddy's wife Raul was singing to ?
Why isn't he more famous??? GREAT VOICE!
I think it's song choice. The greatest singer of the past 25 years yet the average music listener couldn't tell you who Raul Malo is.
Tom Lee you can blame the female fans
I'm surprised not many know of Raul Malo and I live here in Texas.
Not all women 🥰. He has a voice made for seduction, his size is insignificant.
@Tom Lee Nashville has missed the mark...Raul is heavier but very good looking, a little shorter and a little heavier doesn't change that he is a fantastic talent !
What a voice…….
Raul Malo is without a doubt one of Nashville's finest singers. He is way underrated! My favorite though. He inspired me to grow a goatee myself!
Raul does a great job singing this with the cream of LA session musicians backing him. Special poignancy in singing it to Buddy's widow, Maria Elena, the inspiration for the song. Maria obvoiusly approves.
What a singer I could listen to him all day and night. he is so relaxing 😌
Omg ! Can’t get enough,my hearts bleeds when I hear his love songs.
Incredible singer! Buddy would have been proud!!
Beautiful tribute to Buddy Holly ❤️
wow. this guy can sing anything.
The voice. Raul Malo can sing anything!!!!
Wonderful and a super incredibly talented singer 🥰😎🤠
Just Love Raul
This dude makes people's lives better wherever he sings
Even guys Loves you man.
All the best from Sweden
Truly does Buddys song justice!!
O Raul tem o toque de Midas, musical... tudo que ele canta vira ouro.
Is there anything this man cannot sing!? Found him a few months ago accidently on RUclips. He has blown my life away, STUNNING
What a voice!! Raul Malo is such a wonderful singer - listen to his songs every day..........Thank you Raul! :)
How I love this man and his magical voice. I met him in Sydney in 2014. This video shows Buddy Holly widow in the audience. Beautifully done. Bravo.
Oh wonderful song…… how many memories……Raul’s voice is incredible
omg this song & Raul's gorgeous voice is the most beautiful love song....just love it 4-22-20 what an amazing voice Raul has been blessed with.
What an excellent rendition of this song. All that was missing was the haunting saxophone in the original.
I see those commenting "why isn't he more famous"....haven't you heard of the Mavericks? Come on people...please. Don't
Best ever rendition! A true work of artl
Truly one of the most talented singer ever pure magic
Have several of his cds. Talented artist. Thanks for sharing.🎶❤️

He is so good and knows just how to sing these love songs. I just love Raul MALO. He is the best.
Love it when an artist covers a song in the same manner of the original artist. I think Buddy would approve.
