It amazes me, the sometimes lightening swift, sometimes draggy passage of time . . But what Jerry Lee speaks of here is timeless and wonderful to hear!! I'm Thankful I got to hear it, Praise God!
Beautiful and sincere. He's been to hell and back - he's had a hard, hard life that would've completey broken a weaker person. He's a survivor. God bless him for all the joy he has brought to so many people.
I met Jerry Lee at a small kentucky county airport in 1969. We talked for a while that evening as he waited for a cab to drive him over to Williamson, WV. where he was to preform that night. He talked straight, was just himself. A man just like you and me. Told me that he had been very broke after the DJ' s banned his music, but was coming back. I never forgot him.
Such a beautiful melody... And such a beautiful message. It's a message that we can all relate to somehow... I know I can... It brings a tear to my eye. Golly. God bless ya Jerry Lee. And God Bless everyone of us in this old world of ours... The Preacherman.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....WOW! Well, at least we know the psych ward has internet, lol. BearStar1, you are in desperate need of a psychiatric evaluation, followed by extensive psychiatric therapy!
He lived it as it came -- and though it all, he won. And thanks to all the gods and angels that he did. Jerry Lee Lewis' talent is not one that can be shuffled to the side. He's genius in numerous ways. And I thank those gods and angels that let me live long enough for his music to be part of my life.
This came from Jerrys heart, just speaking his life out , to his audience, my favourite rock n roller of them all , thank you for posting on here, bob from England
Happy Bitrhday ! My dream is to shake your hand !I have listen to you ,when my Daddy played you on the piano and ever since, as a kid,right now,always, this song means the world to me,' Killer" You are "it".I thank God for giving me the abitity to here , and all the blessing that have come my way! God Bless ,B Watson Max Meadows
Has Jerry Lee finally gave his life over to the Lord! If so Praise the Lord! Jimmy'a prayers are finally answered! Now it would be great if Jerry Lee and Jimmy Lee would come together again and play and sing together songs of our Dear Lord and Savior at Family Wiorship Center and be recorded live and released on DVD and CD!
For the lunkhead who who could not appreciate this song and declared that God is a myth: Only God Himself could make someone so blind and stupid that they cannot believe He exists. You are one of His creations, breathing His air and eating His food; He designed your heart and keeps it ticking so you can keep rail- ing against Him, using miserable, lower-level beings like you for his own purpose, which is to use you for a prop, a backdrop, as contrast, so we may better dis- tinguish the truth and the light against blatant idiocy and in- effable darkness. I am not the ultimate judge. If you are not too far gone, there is a way out for you, if God Almighty wills it. Otherwise you shall one day perish physically like the rest of mortal men have, through the still lapse of the ages, only your soul will be eternally lost. I do not wish this for you. It is out of my hands. Peace.
This made me tear up a little bit . He was a master of sentiment and emotion . A true entertainer all round , of the ragtime order, just a bit of boogie woogie mix in . He was up there with Scott Joplin.
YRS AGO, SAT DOWN FOR A SUN. AM BREAKFAST, IN A RESTAURANT IN DALLAS, LOOKED NEXT TO ME, WAS JERRY LEE ALSO. I GREETED HIM & SAID GOD HAS GIVEN YOU GREAT TALENT! I ASKED; " WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GIVE UP R& R AND START DOING GOSPEL?" (I KNEW HE HAD GONE TO BIBLE SCHOOL) HE REPLIED; " WHEN THEY START PAYING ME $26,000 A NIGHT, TO SING! " I SAID; " JERRY, YOU CAN'T TAKE IT TO HEAVEN WITH YOU.. ONLY SOULS! -B.D.
one of my cable customers was a friend of Jerry Lee and still had Piano in Jam Room They Hung out his entire career High pt. N.C. He almost sold me one of his many many Guitars
Take all of todays so called performers, combine their talent and compare that to Jerry Lee Lewis's talent........no comparison, the Killer rules and todays talent is as talented as a one armed paper hanger.
Wish our World and Country would give God the Glory like the Old Day men did,back when God Blessed this nation,before we started murdering babies,our human kind,for the worthless dollarsof this fallen world,and condemned our souls. Miss Jerry lee,Elvis,My adoptive parents.As a Vietnan Veteran, I'm ashamed,Hurt,and saddened at tge World,Mostly at my Country,my fellow man. " For ALL shall stand before the Judgement seat of God and give account if their doings in this world ". " Firvtgecwages of sin is death " and I for one deserve it and as a man of Truth and Integrity,I welcome it. How sad must Jesus be at us.
JLL was the most charismatic performer in the 20th century; those foolish people who called JFK charismatic are syncopants. JFK, Elvis, et al were tepid shadows compared to JLL. Be thankful JLL was a rock n" roller instead of a politician!!! That man was the KILLER!
Ironic in this appearance he mentions "If I had $5 Million" in that song, and he immediately introduces his daughter Phoebe Lewis to the crowd. As it turns out, $5 million is exactly the amount he is now suing her for allegedly giving him a cocktail of drugs to control him and keeping him in a moldy house where he had to wear a mask all the time.
Jerry Lee was walking down the street in Ferriday when he was about 14. His buddy Cecil Harrelson was sweeping out the local store and joking yelled at him: 'there's the killer'... Women dived for cover, and they started laughing....the women came out and saw it was just Jerry Lee Lewis...the nickname stuck with him for life.....
I have always liked Jerry's music especially his piano playing. His private life has been a turmoil to say the least, his drunken performances and the people he has hurt and insulted on the way. But spare me the finding of the Lord and then the Maudling speeches about loving everyone bla bla bla.,That doesn't exonerate him or any of the people who lead such lives and then nearly die but live to tell the tale. God didn't bring them back from the brink of death, the Doctors et al did, be grateful to them not this invisible God who apparently very "cleverly created this earth in 6 days " and all the billions of small creatures and of course us humans, I guess he really did have to rest on the 7th day. I wonder if he created all the other planets in the universe and the numerous galaxies Hmmmmmmm !!!!!
WELL Well Patrick..I Guess YOU will find out 4 real one day soon..ID say Best Wishes but that wont keep You... Oh never mind..The doctors DO NOT always bring us back ..Keep That Positive Attitude........YES
This was after his surgery. After all the pills and booze put a hole in his stomach. That doctor fixed him up good then. After his mother and son had died so close, how could you blame him?
good comment, ive lost 2 brothers and my dear son. and dear old mum and dad. don't judge any one unless you know their story. cause some of us just have to blow out now and then. then we come back trying to be ok. but every now and then the pain just creeps up on you, out of nowhere
