I was in that video!! I was in the C141 Starlifter military airplane that took off 47 seconds into the video. When I got back to McChord Air Force Base I did the research on my mission and that was definitely our crew!!! Go Air Force!!
My husband just sent this to me while he's at work. He's been working such long days to help us save for a house while I stay home with our one year old. 😭
I'm sure he appreciated knowing you were at home with his baby. We may not say it all the time but i love working long days knowing my wife and children are taken care of.
Underrated, under-appreciated, incredible singer and songwriter!! He's awesome in my book! His voice is so different but so cool and so are his lyrics and songs! He should be as big as ANY of the others like Kenny Chesney, if not more so because he writes his own songs!!
my husband is a marine and every deployment he sings this to me. I love how he actually sounds like Gary allen. but I feel this way a lot but then I smile bc I relive he's doing for mine and your freedom. baby I miss you and o hope you make it home safe soon.
I'm not sure what good there is to say about U.S. military operations abroad anymore, but that's only due to politics of recent years. The last probably 2 decades Congress has devolved into a bunch of squabling kindergarteners but I would Never belittle the service of our brave men and women in the military, and actually regret I wasn't one. I have only ridicule for our politicians, but for your husband ma'am, I can only say thank you, for being more than I was, and thank you for your service and sacrifice.
Ya if he wrote all his own music I’d agree. But compared to a luke brian, ya absolutely, Allen has more talent flexed in his worst song by an embarrassing land slide compared to Brians best song.
@@markwillsmusic. I absolutely Love your music. This is one of my favorites. Sing your heart out. Always have always will. God Bless and take Favor in all You do.
BananaMan u r so right after cw crossed over I went back to good out RnR. There is not a bad song on "Smoke rings in the dark. I'm so glad I kept all my cw cds I just listened to it last week .
I work construction and I'm at work 7 days a week. Most in my line of work dread the weather. But I look forward to it. When I get home at night, and I'm holding my wife And spending time with my 15 month old baby boy, I can't help but think" THIS is right where I need to be" good days or not. My wife and son make them positive
I'm in plumbing but I'm a shit pumper. Digging septic tanks. 10 yrs with my wife. I hate my job I hate the 24/7, call. But I'm still at it 6 yrs. Pays Bill's. I'll do anything to get away. Got 2 boys now. Idk wtf to do but to.do it
One of my grandma's favorites, she passed away in 2014 to stage 4 lung cancer. And Every time I hear his voice, it takes me back. Smiling through my tears.
Gary Allan is not just talented but a total " hottie". I was up close when I worked at a venue in San Antonio and he was performing at the rodeo. He walked right past me about 3 feet - he stopped and turned around and looked at me. Trust me... he's beautiful.
@Gary Allan why are you trying to present yourself as Gary Allen? Not only is the wording wrong and I'm sure that Gary Allen has much too busy to sit around and read Facebook comments. You would have to prove who you are before I give any info to you.
You came to Burlington Iowa and did concert for Burlington steamboat Days. Stayed in the hotel that me and my family were in after we seen you. You were coming up the stairway and me and my sister were walking down. We couldn't believe our eyes looking at you and you kissed us on our cheeks. Unforgettable!!!
It's not that they need to take a backseat. They need to stand their ground and not conform. Not a Kenny fan, but country music won't change if the artists keep giving in.
Writing this comment, as I am currently at a Gary Allan concert, and he is playing this at Albertville Alabama. It’s quite exuberant I must say. This isn’t my usual take of music, but he made it sound great.
@@Justine175 I can tell that you are surprised. Well, I don’t often reply to comments on RU-vid due to my busy schedules so I think it’d be great to keep In touch with you on .
@@Justine175 Oh, okay. Thank you so much for the immense love and support, I hope you don’t stop listening to my music. Well, I don’t chat often on RU-vid due to my busy schedules, we can actually talk more on Google chat. Do you have Google chat installed on your mobile phone?
My favorite song of his he is alot better than some of these so called country singer s has not been given enough credit thank God a few are left keep singing
This is one of my favorite songs by Gary. Seeing him in concert last night was amazing! I am so glad I did. An amazing performer and no doubt incredible live.
My daughter is going to his concert in August in Texas and she is so excited I am so happy for her. It's her Mother's Day present from her wonderful husband.......
Love Love Love me some Gary Allan!!!!! Finally after many years my husband and I are right where we need to be. played it for him last night , danced in the kitchen and cried. Life is beautiful!
msfigy it ain't the whiskey gets me every time.. Even ten fold after finding out it was about his late wife... hell it put all his songs in new light for me.... And also he writes all his music.. And there's plenty to choose from...
msfigy. If you are not like Kim. LEech. She. Like all them song because. She can be with all them guy she can be with. She. Is a know. Good. (Oh) like to last with them all
I have LOVED Gary Allan's music from the first time I heard him on the radio with his first hit...."Man to Man" ❤️❤️ That song hit home for me in many ways. His voice is one of a kind. I am definitely a devoted fan that's hoping to see him this Sept in concert❤️🤞🏻❤️🤞🏻
I was 14 when this song hit the airwaves. It was my favorite new song playing on the radio at the time. Instantly recognizable by the guitar riff at the beginning. Still one of my favorites 20 some years later. Hard to believe I'm older now than Gary was in this video.....
I'm related to Gary Allen and yes he's got a great singing voice but the dude is sorta stuck up.. His mother especially. She's so evil in fact that she insulted my grandmother on her deathbed.
saw him in concert 3 times, even before the concert as he practiced, me and a friend snuk in and he was just inches away from me...wow love this man's music.....oh so handsome! be still my heart.....Gary, Blake, Keith, Tim best country men!!
Hello ma'am I'm glad you'd love♥️ my songs. I never expected much but with your kind out there, I'm great!! Thanks for your massive love and support all through this time's Where are you supporting from?
@@sherrienale9974 Am fine You’re welcome I’m here now you will be fine now😁.I’m David Taylor I live in Washington DC but currently deployed here in Aden Yemen.where are you from ?
Love this song! " Where when I here her I can see her, I can smell her sweet perfume. I can feel her skin against me when I sleep. Where I won't miss her, I can kiss her anytime that I want to. Yeah that's right where I need to be". I love the way a mans skin feels against mine where he can smell my sweet perfume ! Great sounds Gary Allan!!!

This song brings me back to when I was 17, I had the hugest crush on him. I remember seeing him at the local rodeo and how his voice made me melt in my seat!!! It's been almost 20 years since then, and Gary's voice still makes me melt!!!! Lol
@Gary Allan OMG!! No, thank you for all the wonderful songs that bring me back to a time when I was the happiest!! No matter what song you sing, you always will make this girl right here melt into the seat of the chair!! I will say this even after all these years, I still to this day have the hugest crush on you!! Lol You're the best!! :)
@@taramay782 I can tell that you are surprised. Well, I don’t often reply to comments on RU-vid due to my busy schedules so I think it’d be great to keep In touch with you on . Are you on Google chat?
@Gary Allan yes I do. Lol you can find me under pantryrator. :) I hope that the Sikeston Jaycee Bootheel Rodeo announces you as part of their line up this summer!! If not, I definitely will have to see ya concert in Chesterfield.. You're the best!!! Hope to gear from ya!
If you get a chance to see Gary, you owe it to yourself to attend 😉 his concerts are a mixture of dark chocolate and salted Carmel- it starts out great and just keeps getting better 😀
man in 2020 this song pulled me literally pulled me through Hell, they say angels can go to Hell and back on a rescue mission, this song pulled me through one of darkest, loneliest, and lowest points of my entire life, was down on bended knee
I love Gary Allan I seen him at the big spring jam one year hes a even more amazing performer and alot of his music I can feel what he felt when he wrote it ...... music like this doesnt get made anymore
I first saw Gary Allan and band in 1999.At twin towns in Australia. Met them all afterwards. So unreal pictures too. Smoke rings in the dark really big than Than I went and saw them.2003 At twin towns again. No meet and greet that time But a great live show. One of the best country music Singers we have
I know you might be surprised to get a text from me, it's unusual and I want to use this opportunity to say a very big thank you for unconditional love and support all this time's ♥️ Where are you supporting from?
