Keith Whitley's widow, singer Lorrie Morgan, said she was struggling for the right words to include during her acceptance of his Country Music Hall of Fame medallion. She knew one thing however.
"He would feel so undeserving," Morgan shares, reinforcing a notion suggested earlier that his self-doubt was part of what led him to drink. Whitley died at age 33 in 1989. His membership into the Country Music Hall of Fame is a reminder of his long influence during such a short career.
"That was the wonderful thing about Keith," Morgan continues. "He was so one of us. He loved all these Hall of Fame members. He was such fans of everybody. The musicians - he loved the musicians, the songwriters."

Don't Close Your Eyes was my favorite. Congrats to Keith and family.

@GrammysaursB Год назад

Loved Keith's voice. His death saved my brother's life. He was a big fan Keith Whitley fan. My brother is an alcoholic. Keith was the same age and when he died from alcohol poisoning it woke my brother up. He went into rehab and hasn't had a drop since.

@joannabrower9948 Год назад

Excellent. Thank God

@avalcallahan Год назад

Praise the Lord!! I wish his family knew this!!

@marquettegloves9907 Год назад

But sadly he picked up a heroin habit in rehab. So he got off the drink, but fell victim to the smack. Tragic... RIP

There will never be a voice like Keiths ❤

@MsWDWFAN1 Год назад

Keith was Lorries true soul mate. If he hadn't passed, they'd still be together. She did everything she could to try and save him from the terrible disease of alcoholism. By her emotional speech it's obvious she has never gotten over his loss. The pain is still there & it's heartbreaking.

@debroahisaacs2452 Год назад

Her name is beside Keith's on the same headstone. He was her forever here.

@MsWDWFAN1 Год назад

@@debroahisaacs2452 Yes I saw that and I hope her children will lay her to rest there. 🙏

Oh finally, I love it. He is hands down my favorite male country singer ever & so deserved this honor. And, I love Lori. She sang a song that I deciated to my late husband, a picture of me without you. I had to look up Miami, My Amy just to hear what she heard that special day.

I bought Keith Whitley's tapes back then. Truely one of a kind. As a now recovered Alcoholic when you know you know a kindred soul. It's not Good Bye ...it's we'll see you later .❤

@mikegreer-to1bk 11 месяцев назад

Keith was and still is my all time favorite country music singer and he really deserves to be in the country music hall of fame. I instantly became a big fan of his when I heard the news that he died of alcohol poisoning on May 9, 1989. Well, keith you're finally home!

@sabrinadrabing595 Год назад

Beautiful tribute!🙏🏻🇺🇸❤️

@janb748 Год назад

I still play Keith Whitley CDs in the car. I usually play them through twice. He's not forgotten by his fans. Til A Tear Becomes a Rose, the duet with Lorrie, is one of my special favorites.

@ChasityGlenn2014 Год назад

Keith had a one of a kind voice. I would have loved to have heard what he would’ve saying in the last 30 something years if he had not have passed. I bet he would’ve gone on to be as big as Garth brooks. He was already a huge huge superstar by the time he died. Glad he’s in the Hall of Fame. Also, got a congratulate Jerry Lee! Jerry Lee is one of the finest of our time, since the day that he had the chance to begin his musical career!l😊

I’m a 37 yr old white male, and I grew up in country music. And I’ve always thought if you want to love a woman how a man should then you should listen to Keith Whitley songs. When you say nothing at all Don’t close your eyes Etc.

What is so sad, Keith belonged in there many years ago.

@myotherbrotherdarrel4495 Год назад

As a guy who truly followed Keith's career, I always felt Lorry going out of town when he was at his weakest, was partially why he drank himself to death that day. That's why my skin crawls everytime I hear lorry sing "when you say nothing at all". She should feel ashamed for accepting this award.

L made him drink. They had a very rocky marriage that no one cares to mention. He loved her beyond words. How she treated him was a disgrace.

@annanutherthing4373 9 месяцев назад

Wow!! Such made up garbage!!! Listen to his own mum talk about his alcoholism starting when he was drinking as a very young teenage musical prodigy touring away from home& overseas with much older adult men in bands & overexposed to things too young!! He was using alcohol to cope very early and with death of a brother etc etc. . He said himself he grew up with everyone drinking & how he always had terrible stage fright and poor self esteem . For chrissakes get the actual facts. Misogynistic to blaming wives & women etc for a guy messing up!! Imagine living with a real alcoholic . That would never have been easy or stable or calm or restful!! . Trying to have a normal life and family with that destabilising any event or occasion & disappointments & disillusion when he relapsed ! .. it ‘d ruin the best marriages and families . He had love support and means to address his addiction. He had to own it like every other addict. She or family couldn’t have saved him any more than they all tried !!

"Keith Whitley's widow" you mean Lorrie Morgan? 🙄🙄🙄

@brianboisguilbert6985 Год назад

Morgan has milked being KW’s wife for years, too bad she wasn’t there when he needed her.

@ellenherman9543 10 месяцев назад

Whats sad is people are still dying of this disease

@lisasammons2343 Год назад

Lorrie Morgan caused his death. She was cheating on him. Keith drank himself to death because of her. This truth came from his parents. Keith told them she wasn't showing up to meet him.
