Lyrics: He said "I'll love you till I die", she told him "You'll forget in time" As the years went slowly by, she still preyed upon his mind He kept her picture on his wall, went half-crazy now and then He still loved her through it all, hoping she'd come back again Kept some letters by his bed dated nineteen sixty-two He had underlined in red every single "I love you" I went to see him just today, oh but I didn't see no tears All dressed up to go away, first time I'd seen him smile in years He stopped loving her today They placed a wreath upon his door And soon they'll carry him away He stopped loving her today You know, she came to see him one last time Aww, 'n' we all wondered if she would And it kept runnin' through my mind "this time he's over her for good" He stopped loving her today They placed a wreath upon his door And soon they'll carry him away He stopped loving her today
@Luis Dennis I'm here because a friend sent me this song, and it made me F*cry💔 i don't know that much about country music, but after i liked ur comment, i decided to listen to all his songs, and there are more beautiful songs, but this one touched my h❤️rt and s💫ul deeply✨💫✨ much l💞ve
My brothers couldn’t understand why l loved this song so much. They thought a young black man couldn’t possibly love this type of music. I love all genres of music - especially pop and country! “He Stopped Loving Her Today” is perhaps one of the greatest country songs of all time. I can now understand why it was ‘Country Music’s Song Of The Year’ two years running: 1980 and 1981! It’s a classic!!!! Rest in Peace 🕊️ Possum - George Jones…
I vividly remember when I was about 16 years old my late father suddenly yelling for me to come into the living room. He said son come quick and listen. This, he said is probably the greatest country song of all time. I stood and listened to George Jones sing He Stopped Loving her Today on TV. (before the internet and when TV only had 12 or so channels) And as a ACDC, Motley Crue loving teen I was taken aback and absolutely floored. Thank you Dad and thank you George for forever turning me onto REAL country music.
I’m GenX, and I grew up, listening to this old country because my Dad loved it. I always loved the newer country when I was in college, but now that I’m in midlife, I revert back to all of the “old country“ because it reminds me of my Dad. This is a great song, and it has always made me cry. No matter how many times I’ve heard it in my lifetime, I feel the heartache to my core.❤
I met Mr Jones in New Orleans in the 80's this man was a true gentleman. He walking by me in a bar he was leaving I said I love your music Mr Jones he stopped and spoke with me for almost 30 minutes. Pure class I felt like I had ran into a old friend i hadn't seen in years.
There are So many that There Will Never Be Another One of .. . George Jones is Likely My All Time Favorite C&W Singer .. . And This is My Song I Shall One Day Stop Loving Her .. . My Avatar which I Have been Married to for 45+ Years !! ! Connie My Love !! !
And why being hispanic have anything to do with liking or not liking country music? I have music sung in different languages and don't give them any thought about their original language; music is music and a good song is a good song, regardless.
Me and 3 friends played this song everytime we would drink some beer at a mom and pop joint at least 3 times a week , we would sing along and would get a standing ovation everytime from everyone there , good times in the early 80s
This was truly my Dad's song...when my Mother left him I was 5... when I was grown he told me he thought he would lose his mind when she left...he didn't but he never married again and lived alone until he passed away at 70. . Makes me cry every time.
@@CelesteAtkins-i6c Hello!!! How are you doing? Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you are a fan? Have a great day… Stay Safe!
Hello beautiful 👋🌹, how are you doing?....I’m sorry for Invading your privacy, i was passing through some profile then I saw you and stop to say hi…I hope you don’t mind.
My late dad introduced me to good country music back in the early 80s when I was a child. This was the first George Jones song he let me listen to. Even at 5 years old, it hooked me and i've been a fan of The Possum ever since. I was fortunate enough to see him perform at the Oil Palace in Tyler,Texas here before he passed. His music always reminds me of much better times, those good times with my family and my late best friend watching Hee Haw on TV, and especially singing along with my dad in that old white 1971 Chevrolet truck. I wouldn't trade those times for anything.
He was an alcoholic. Probably depressed most of his life but some of the best art in all its forms are made by people who've experienced pain and hardships in their lives.
When my Grandfather passed away from black lung working in the Labrador mines this casset tape was left in his car tape player. Last thing he listened to I guess. Its been decades now. He was a hard man. An nforgiving man. Worked till the end. Cant believe how much I'm like him. RIP
no one in the world , and each time George did it live it was always slightly different, but always Amazing , i gave up doin it because George has it to a level no one will ever reach
Lyrics:
He said "I'll love you till I die", she told him "You'll forget in time"
As the years went slowly by, she still preyed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wall, went half-crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all, hoping she'd come back again
Kept some letters by his bed dated nineteen sixty-two
He had underlined in red every single "I love you"
I went to see him just today, oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away, first time I'd seen him smile in years
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
You know, she came to see him one last time
Aww, 'n' we all wondered if she would
And it kept runnin' through my mind "this time he's over her for good"
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
This song... makes me FuckinG CrY every time when i listen...😭💔🌹It's so beautiful...🌹❤️🌹

Hello young lady 👋, how are you doing?
@LuisDennis432 Yes I'm here Dennis...in youtube..
George is timeless. I met him in a very trying time in both our lives. Hillcrest . GOD IS REAL.
No country singer past, present or future will ever sound better than George. No auto tune, no lip syncing. Real artist. The 🐐!
Country music died with Garth Brookes... what they have called country ever since the early 1990s ain't been worth a shit.
You are right. Country music is not what it use to be

I love all genres of music - especially pop and country! “He Stopped Loving Her Today” is perhaps one of the greatest country songs of all time.

💯 brother
You’ve got great taste in music and life! 💔
That's what's up! To have such a musical palette is a blessing!
love we are all connected...no color...........we all have the spark of god...yes. we do.
we are children from shem noah son..yess...
He had underlined in red every single I love you.
Like JESUS 🕊️🔥
I’m 67 and Sad to say I’ve Only Listened to This Man for Only 10 Years….So Much Lost Time…George was The KING..!!!

This is pretty awesome, because I am your age and my Dad did the same thing.
George was the greatest of all time.Your Dad told you the truth.
I didn't know your Dad but I feel like I did because.he knew real talent
I like Tom T. Hall alot too. He was the peot Laurent of country music. He wrote a lot of hits like Harper PTA.
It's not even that great of a song, but the way George Jones did it made it one for the ages.

A Gentleman
I wish I could have met him. One of the best singers in his era.
Surprised to hear he was leaving
@@unncommonsenseOne of the best singers, of any era. Legend.
There will never be another George Jones ......... ever.
There are So many that There Will Never Be Another One of .. .
George Jones is Likely My All Time Favorite C&W Singer .. .
And This is My Song I Shall One Day Stop Loving Her .. .
My Avatar which I Have been Married to for 45+ Years !! !

Thank God I saw him in person with my husband at Detroit's State Fair, all those years ago
Exactly never another one
Got to see him at a Vince Gill concert in Boise about thirty years ago, wasn't even expecting to see him there, he was the highlight of the show!
Check out his song, "Who's Gonna Fill their Shoes?"
Can’t listen without crying, even at the age of 78 still gets me every time!💔
Me too ❗️😢
One of the best songs ever. George was one of a kind. Never will be another. RIP
I may be Hispanic but let me tell you something nothing on this god's given earth touches your SOUL deeper than GOSPEL and COUNTRY music PERIOD. ❤
Amen man
❤ ❤🎉🎉
And why being hispanic have anything to do with liking or not liking country music? I have music sung in different languages and don't give them any thought about their original language; music is music and a good song is a good song, regardless.
I am black Caribbean and I grew up on many types of music but African American old school gospel and old school country were always it…
ok but nothing can make you cry in your beer like a Vicente Fernandez ranchero
Me and 3 friends played this song everytime we would drink some beer at a mom and pop joint at least 3 times a week , we would sing along and would get a standing ovation everytime from everyone there , good times in the early 80s
Who ever thumbs down George Jones has no heart or soul and do not know what great music is.

Hello, how are you doing today, I hope you’re having a wonderful day?
He was an alcoholic. Probably depressed most of his life but some of the best art in all its forms are made by people who've experienced pain and hardships in their lives.
There are a lot of great versions to this song by some greats but this one to me is the best to me 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Always brings a tear..classic..truly a classic...
He never stopped loving her because true love is eternal.
I remember my Mom was in love with George Jones. I now know why ❤
Beautiful song. He will be missed ❤❤
Hello how are you doing today
Beautiful Song. I play his songs often❤❤❤
Is it me or does he look like he could break down and cry? Love this song.
Dang, real country music
This is why they called him the rolls Royce of country singers !
One of the best songs ever, George was perfect for it.
He's the biggest country singer in all time! Nobody on his side, and nobody over.And I have listen to the most of them.
The Possum. The GOAT. No? The Possum lived across the street on Greenbriar in Dallas Tx late 70's. Awesome Possum.
My mom would've been 79 today. I'm listening to this for her. Her favorite song from her favorite country singer.
I remember the first time I actually listened to this. I cried like a little kid.
such a beautiful song and he.s the only one that does it justice. RIP George thank you for the wonderful music
Hello, how are you doing now I really enjoyed oldies with Grandma and I enjoyed life concert
