This song is a real treasure, Dierks did an outstanding job with vocals and the band only added to it with great music. I also thank Hank for writing such a beautiful song.
WOW! EXCELLENT job Dierks! Thanks for singing in the style of old-school Country music! Hank Williams Sr would be SO proud! This song is very much in line with those who have a strong Faith and live The Gospel!
Dierks this ia a great collaboration of your earlier years. I love this sound and your singing is beautiful. Glad to hear this song for the first time tonight.
DIRKS BENTLEY REALLY DOES A GOOD VERISON OF THIS SONG HE REALLY SINGS THIS SONG W GREAT EMOTIONAL FEELINGS I WONDER IF HE SAVED IF HES NOT HE SHOULD BECAUSE HAS BLESSED THIS YOUNG MAN W. GREAT TALENT HE SHOULD SING MORE SPIRTUAL SINGING. GOD BLESS YOU DIERKS. SANDRA MILLER )
This song was played at my father's funeral at his pre-planned request, he died May 2014 he would have been 75 years old today, 12/17/2014. This song is so true. RIP dad.
The only version that compares to hank Williams SR's Version is Hank Williams JR's Version while singing it live. I actually think that JR outdid SR when it comes to that song.
So glad i finally could find this song. Heard the last half of it as i was getting in my car this morning and tried for hours to find it on youtube cause i didn't know what it was called, only that dierks sang it. Very very good song. Keep up the good work Dierks.
My dad Rev. Cecil C. Musick sang this song. He listened to Hank sing it on tapesuntil he learned the song . Not sure he ever heard Deirk's version but I am sure he would have loved it. This is beautiful!
love Dierk's version of House of Gold.. but stil prefer my daddy's version. Rev. Carl Howard and the Kentucky Gospel Trio. Hats off to both. Daddy used to say, "better mean it, if ya sing it". Amen.
isn't it great when a man got great talent a sings gospel like this version of Dierks Bentley House of gold it brings out their real talent a feelings just like it did Elvis Presley when he sung gospel songs Dierks has a great voice but nobody could match Elvis Presley gospel talent nobody
I believe. we ate all God's children but it's up to us to seek a find him a keep his commandments resist the devil pray believe on the Lord Jesus Christ a do the best you can do w what you have thank God for your blessings keep the faith
Bill Keener I meant to say we are not ate. god's children's. dirks Bentley sure a god given touching talent. singer. Elvis Presley was to I bet he was raised right to love god. it's funny tho how fame a fortune has a way of making us stray away awhile. but god chases us tests us a brings us back. a he saves our soul. like he did Elvis Presley.
People don't truly realize how incredibly difficult it is to pull off anything regarding Hank Williams Sr and to be able to do it convincingly. His music is so basic in it's outward dimensions but it's almost downright impossible to pull off Old Hank. Dierks Bentley really did Hank justice with this one.
Dierks Bentley did this??!?!?....I hear the music he performs on mainstream radio and despise it completely!!.......I appologise Dierks....You do this song justice brother!! I have never heard you perfom a cover of this before...Just the shit you perform on mainstream radio...You got talent brother...
Great song and post but one problem ending was cut off can someone post this fine song in its entirety no disrespect just being honest thanks for your attention in this matter and take care
Then when you get to heaven, if that's even possible, you're gonna be surprised that some of your closest friends and relatives didn't make it. According to Freud, your presence there is in question too.
If that is your picture you look old enough to have attained some wisdom. The Bible says to," Fear God is the beginning of Wisdom." Freud was a Pervert. I hope you' re not so foolish as to base your eternal Soul on a Pervert. I have seen many things. I have experienced some. I agree with Solomon. In Ecclesiastes the King states how he did everything and experienced all there was and that this is what is important." Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter:Fear God and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgement, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil." Ecclesiastes 12:13-14. Come to Jesus while you have time. He loves you and He died on the cross for you. I went to a Funeral this week. I know He is in Heaven. Praise God. I know one day I will be there. You can know it too. There is a God; His name is Jesus Christ. There is a Heaven and a Hell. Without Jesus you will go to Hell. You must be Saved.
Don’t they though. They get to go to hell with my money. Right Dierk’s. They are fortunate their punishment is in God’s hands and not mine. Cause I can’t tell you what this Country Girl might do lol. But I get to go to heaven. That’s all that matters. Love your grateful ❤️🎵🤠😘
Actually, if you looked at the music, harmonies, lyrics, chords, you'd see they compare quite closely. :) but in all seriousness, it's the old country sound vs. the new country sound. Can't really say either is better.
