Ronnie Milsap has always been one of my favorite country singers. He did a lot of great songs. He also had a one of a kind style of 🎵 and voice . His music never gets old in my book ! I could listen to his songs forever !😍😍😊😊😌🥰👍👍👍👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

Thats because you had to be able to actually sing then. Today, music is like the Johnny Bravo episode of the Brady Bunch. you just have to fit the suit. if you will twerk or strip naked in a video, and are attractive with a good body you're in. with all the technology, they can replace your voice or dub in one syllable at a time, and make you sound like anybody they want. you don't need talent; you just have to be up for sale.
I saw Ronnie Milsap in concert back in 1987 in Pennsylvania. It was the best concert ever. He never missed a note!!! I was sad to find out about his difficult childhood but he showed the world that dreams really do come true no matter what disability a person may have. I feel very lucky to have been at his concert. I will never forget it!!!
@heidipafford5459 I often wonder how he performs live. I believe you!!! This man's talent is remarkable. He literally brought a whole new sound to country 🎶 back then.
I lost my husband ten years ago and it still hurts just as much or more. But I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Love you and thanks for this great song Ronnie.❤️
This year is 10 years for me also... it's weird how something can feel a million years ago and yesterday at the same time. We also were supposed to celebrate 20 years of marriage this year. Super weird year. Big hugs to you ❤️
I met Ronnie, his Wife Joyce and his Son Todd many times in my years driving Entertainer Coach for Many Country Bands and Performers. Ronnie is as Down to Earth as you could imagine. It really hit me hard when Ronnie lost his Son Todd, and then his wife Joyce. I called Ronnie a few days afterwards. I dont ever want to hear a Broken man like that again. Ronnie you are Loved and admired by So many people. Thank you Ronnie.
I danced with my daughter in my arms. She laughed I laughed. We knew what was coming. I only get brave enough every 2 yrs or so. And so here we are. Fly free my 💕
You got that right today's music is just shit to me. But on the other hand when we listen to our favorites as a young person growing, our parents, guardian, or who ever raised you said the same thing that the music at that time wasn't cutting it either, and so we carry that tradition and tell our kids that their modern music sucks, and then their children will tell their kids and so on and so on. It's just what you grew up with that style of music what your use to and when they change the sound and how the beat is and how they sound singing will get us to say it's bad and not cutting it. But you right it's not. Especially country music, today's country sound so different and some singers don't even sound country but should be in pop, today's country sounds like pop. It's like country music has died and left with singers like Taylor Swift for example she's ok but doesn't sound like country but pop. To me Carrie Underwood is the same. Just like Bob Seager said in one of his songs he says today's music ain't got the same soul . And I'm paraphrasing can't remember the exact words he used but probably get the point. The old sound of country like Hank Williams sr.and jr, Patsy Cline, Alabama, Johnny Cash to name a few is the country I love and wished it could of stayed that way of music. But change is inevitable and have to grin and bare it. Sucks but that's the way it is.
Thought of this song for first time in years while writing a Eulogy for my deceased ex wife. I’m so sorry the marriage didn’t end well. But I am happy for the time we had. Wouldn’t trade 1 memory. Rest in Peace with the Lord
@@cynthiaprentice8420 I know someone who watches this video in memory of his ex-wife. They remained close after the hurt of the divorce healed, even after both remarried.
I think that Ronnie Milsap is one of the most inspiring musicians I can think of. Being blind and being able to play the piano as beautifully as he can, on top of having the wonderful voice that he has, is just nothing short of amazing. I remember the first time I heard the song Smoky Mountain Rain on the radio: I had never heard of Ronnie, but I knew as soon as I heard that song that I was hooked. Every song I have heard since of Ronnie's is sung straight from the heart, and that's not something you find commonly, especially now. He has 40 #1 songs as well, which is impressive in it's own right. Ronnie Milsap is just one of those 1 in a million performers that truly stand out, and I really hope that more people in my young generation will continue to carry on this legend's legacy and his music.
"Smokey Mountain Rain" was also what hooked me on his music in 1980, then I bought many LPs and CDs of him and and he was my first country concert (and tour program); Alabama was the opening act. I played his "There's No Gettin' Over Me" album yesterday.
I totally agree with you Joshua about Mr. Milsap - He's The Best in my book - I Love His Beautiful Music, His Voice, and Ronnie himself as a Kindhearted Loving Human Being, Husband, Father, Musician, Performer, Singer, Songwriter, and the list goes on❤❤❤
by 1994 this reba mcintye crap made it so you knew even country music was rigged and controlled by ghouls from nyc the same kind of people who promoted the hooked nosed sociopath and freak madonna.
his music was played non stop on radio from about late 1980 to late 1982 and the radio waves were full of country music artists that replaced all the disco artists seemingly overnight.
At age 8 in 1978, his was the first concert I ever went to. My parents dragged all 8 of us to the North Carolina stare fair. It mom ate an impact on me. Knowing he is blind, but puting everything into his performance. His biggest hits that year were It was almost like a song, what a difference you’ve made in my life and stand by your woman man.
My Daddy was killed a month ago. As painful as it has been, listening to Ronnie Milsap and the other bands and music I remember listening to when I was much younger bring me Peace and a smile to my face. I remember singing our hearts out to this song going down the road in his little truck:) I miss you so much Daddy💔until I see you again
I had the pleasure of seeing Ronnie open for George Strait. One of the greatest country concert ever. Real country, not this pop stuff they pass off as country.
1978 joined the U.S Army at 17, bought CD"s of Barry White, The Commodores, Art Garfunkel, all the greats, then listened to this unbelievable artist, and I was hooked, after hearing Smokey Mountain Rain, a treasure at best, just a belief in a man that can speak the heart..
It was a time when record producers sent scouts out to local fairs, clubs, bars etc looking for talented people who were gaining a following, that allowed the creative freedom that gave us artists like this. Those days are gone, now instead they just hand pick a person, create the image and political agenda they want & promote the hell out of that person everywhere you turn. That's why the music today sucks. No creative freedom.
Between this song and "It Was Almost Like A Song", I would swear Ronnie foresaw my wife and I. We shared the most beautiful, loving twenty years of my life. Lost her to cancer 15 years ago. Now I battle it. So grateful to have Ronnie Millsap and these two songs in particular, to my music library.
Just sitting here listening to some good music my grandmother Mae brought me up on good Memories I miss you grandma your the best I love you always most of all I miss you grandma 🙏❤❤🦋🦋🦋 I would do anything to hug you again mama ❤❤
I remember when I was about 15 or 16 and had to pretend this song wasn't cool. I absolutely loved it and started looking into his other music and was blown away at his talent. About five years later I found out this guy was blind... I'm like this guy is blind, plays the piano and can sing. Nobody Rocks Country like Ronnie!
ANY SONG(S) OR MUSIC(S) THAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE I WOULD NEVER PRETEND IT WASN'T COOL ! ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS ANY ONE THAT DOESN'T LIKE THE SONG(S) AND MUSIC(S) THAT I LOVE THAT'S THEIR PROBLEM NOT MINE AND I'D TELL THEM YOU GO AND LISTEN TO WHAT SONG(S) AND MUSIC(S) YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO AND I WILL LISTEN TO WHAT SONG(S) AND MUSIC(S) I WANT TO LISTEN TO.!!! I'D TELL THEM SO WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE THE SONG(S) AND MUSIC(S) THAT I LOVE DOESN'T HURT MY FEELINGS !!!!
My soul mate husband use to sing this to me after we got back together after a 10year break up he died in 2000and yet icry everything I hear it. I loved you then I love you now and I'll love you forever Joe. I wouldn't have missed it either

My Grammy had this played at her funeral. I'm really thinking abotu her today, but it's really how we all felt about her. I wouldn't trade a single memory of her for all the gold in the world.

Now this is a freaking classic!! Remembering riding in my Dad’s 71 Ford pickup listening to this on the way to go fishing.. Man I miss you Pop! Lost him 01-16-23… I will never forget the time you always spent with me… I’m 54 now and realize everything you where teaching me in life along the way…
I'm 44 year's old and Ronnie Milsap has always been my favorite artist since I was a kid...! And he will always be my favorite til the day I die....! :-)
Saw Ronnie Millsap in concert at the Tri-state fair in Amarillo, Texas in the fall of 1981 with my then future husband. This song describes how I fell about the man that became my husband. We only had 13 short years... But oh the living we did in those years.💜💜💜 Great concert and didn't let his blindness affect his performance one little bit. Loved him then, love him now

Even though Ronnie is singing about a girl. I took care of my mother in law the last 2 years of her life. The only thing I asked of my pathetic ex and his brother was to put this song in her memorial sideshow. Of course they didn't but I'm soooo glad l spent every day with her. I truly wouldn't have missed it for the WOULD

I remember watching Ronnie perform on "Austin City Limits." He loved to play with the audience just like here in this video. At rehearsal, he would count the steps to the edge of the stage, then walk forward during the show and wait for the crowd to gasp thinking he was going to fall. This man is an amazing fearless artist.

~~ Ronnie Milsap has been my all-time favorite since I was a little girl listening to him on 8 track!! Mom went on to Heaven this past March After beating Covid 2 months prior all while already hospitalized recovering from a deteriorating spine surgery at age 64. Anyway, she surprised me for my birthday 20+ years ago and took me to see Ronnie in concert, just her and I. We had so much fun!!! I'll never forget how special it was to me back then..... And even more so now that she's gone!!!! Ok, so.... Crying my eyes out again.... Missing my Mom sooooooo so much!!!!! Please.... ANYONE who happens to read this..... Take the time and share experiences with those you love!!!!! Create those special memories you and your loved one can always look back on and smile!!!! There will be a day when that's all you have of them..... Those special memories frozen in your mind!!!!! There's NOTHING I wouldn't give to have my Momma back.... even if only for a moment!!!!!! 😭💔

I've loved this song since I was a kid (know it word for word); it takes on more meaning to me as an adult for those I've lost along the way (the biggest loss being my parents). "Love was the best it's ever been" - that was my parents for me. "I wouldn't trade one memory, cause you mean too much to me " ; even though their loss still hurts a lot, and I miss them so very much still, that time with them ? " I wouldn't have missed it for the world ".

I lost the only women that I really loved. It still hurts after 3 years now. She went back and forth between her ex and me over 4 years twice and I had to say it was over. Extremely painful but I'm not a backup plan or second best. I have to stand my boundaries. She has alot of growing up to do.
