    This tore me up! I was married to my husband for 18½ years. I was 17, he was 20 when we married. Had 2 kids. He died on Valentine's Day 2001 from heart failure. He was 39, I was 36. I've never remarried. It's been 21 years since he's been gone. Miss him every single day!!

    Kenny Rogers (when he was with The First Edition) sang together with Tony Orlando performing one of Tony's hits called CANDIDA. It's on RUclips and you just need to search "kenny rogers and tony orlando" and it will bring you to the video. It is a younger Kenny and you will see a playful side to him. You will also hear how pretty his voice is. This song doesn't require the gritty Kenny voice but the pretty Kenny voice. BOTH KENNY VOICES ARE GREAT!

    This song was written by Lionel Richie and Kenny had it on an album in 2009. Then one week after Kenny passed Capitol Nashville sent the song to country radio with a note “those closest to Kenny wanted to make this track available to all of this fans.”

I was in a panic looking for her. I woke up sad and wondered why I had such a dream My mom passed away 15 years ago last month. So this really touched my heart today.

    Lovely song! One of my favorite Kenny Rogers songs is "Sweet Music Man" which he wrote for his good friend Waylon Jennings (also a country singer) who was somewhat self-destructive and Kenny was worried about him when he seemed to be going down the wrong path. It is a beautiful song!

    Thanks for the Kenny Rogers reaction. One of the greats for sure in Country/Pop music. I would love to see your reaction the song "Remembering" by Ashley Campbell, singer Glen Campbell's daughter. She wrote it for her father because he had Alzheimer's. The live version with Carl Jackson, on Country RoadsTV channel. Carl was a band member of Glen's group and a good family friend and also Ashley's Godfather. Again, I love and appreciate your channel and reactions so much! Personal note: This song hits home for me. My husband of 40 years passed away 8 years ago this month. I would live all of those years... and more if I could, over again. Be well, be happy and be blessed!
