There was no country music like the country music of the 90's... They didn't even have to have last names. Toby, Tim, Kenny, brooks and Dunn..... When I think back on those times, I should have been a cowboy, brings back a lot of great memories and times!! I HATE CANCER!!!!!!
@hopebrowning6300 We don't know what happened between him and the Lord before he took his last breath. He is a forgiving God. Toby believed in him and his existence. All he had to do was ask for his forgiveness. Everything he did before that is under the Blood
@hopebrowning6300I know how you feel, I keep fighting and struggling to beat this horrible porn addiction. I slip from time to time but I keep getting up and going. I accepted Christ as my savior when I was 15, plus I was baptized I believe 5 years ago. I know I just keep getting up and going, asking Jesus to help keep me on the narrow path and also to keep my oil in my lamp. Please keep me in prayer & I will do the same for you!
As a dairy farmer, “How do you like me now?” and “How do you milk a cow?” are interchangeable songs, and I think of you both whenever I hear those songs. I grew up with you and Toby. It’s a hard day; the hardest I’ve felt in the country world since Joe Diffie died. You’re all legends to me.
He was one of a kind. Be glad we could enjoy his great music and voice, how he cared about the world. Bless OK Kids Korral we need to donate to that hospital....
My son was working in a restaurant he was the lead cook he saw Toby Keith and some friends coming to the restaurant he went over and asked him if they were enjoying their meal and asked for an autograph from Toby was so gracious and ask him to sit down with him at the table so he can sign the paper my son gave him to sign the autograph my son sat with them for a while and had a good conversation.
Yes you are in my prayers too Cledus and can sing very beautifully as well!! Keep on keeping on! Prayers and try to think happy times more when you were with him!! You were lucky to have known him dear one?
Cletus you just start saving up your best jokes for when you get to heaven because he’s gonna be one hell of a show you look back on all the icon that we’ve lost in the past 15 years God‘s building the grand Opry for his own self, and put those roundedand guess what you’re gonna be on this stage one day just like Cowboy we all be in the audience just admire everybody and listen to everything they have to say Godspeed brother😢🎼🎼🎼🎼🎤🇺🇸👏👏 and I already told Toby that the first round is on me and you’re invited🥃🥃
So sad. He was too big to die. So handsome and prolific songwriter Boy I liked the cut of his job in the best revenge video of all time, "How do u like me now"
Just tonight on my way home I heard “Who’s your daddy” on the radio and thought to myself “I wonder how Cletus is taking this one?”. By some strange coincidence, this pops up on my feed. Bless you Cletus, and may god bless, hold, and keep Toby’s soul for all time.
Many of us are grieving at the loss of Toby. He was part of so many of our lives. Many memories at his concerts and listening to his music with friends. He wasn’t afraid to being real. Cherish your time with your friend.
I am so very sorry for the loss of your dear friend. Oh how he was admired for his service to our military. His contribution to music will never be forgotten. May his family find comfort and peace knowing how he was cherished.
Cledus awesome video Toby is going to be missed by so many people. He was a hell of a performer one of my favorites along with you and many others. Rest in peace Toby Keith!!!!!!
Your tribute to Toby is just beautiful and it makes us willing and anxious to crossover when that hour comes on us to join them on the other side at Jesus feet. 🙏 🕊
we share in your pain, we share in the loss. we are more alike now, you and I. we now have something in common. the uncommon man of Toby Keith, glad to have had him in my lifetime. thanks for sharing Cledus . always enjoyed your work. we need you to lift our spirits, we have missed what you do - so much recently in this country. hope you are well and keep up you hope .

Mr. Toby Keith 🎶🎸🙏💖🙏🇺🇲 love all of your great music to Cletus
If we as Americans are mourning this hard over loosing Tody, then I can only imagine the pain and loss that those of you who were close to him are feeling. I am truly sorry for your loss. I HATE cancer...... but the one thing that cancer can never take away from any of us is memories. May you be blessed with many memories.
Toby touched many people with his voice and music. Thank goodness his music will stay with us in DVD format and UA-cam. Regardless of what variety of music you enjoy,Toby always made you think,while his music was playing in the background! Cheers to a legend, and a man with a talent to show us the joy of song!!!
Bless you Cledus. He was truly an icon that went away too soon. Such is life. We mourn them and we drive on to make them proud. God Bless Toby and his family. He was such a great supporter of the greatest military on this planet. The United States Military!
Yes, he was larger than life....a very good man...an outstanding patriot and probably the best friend a person could ever have. God bless you, all Toby's friends, to his beautiful wife and his children.
How to listen to Toby Keith since I was two years old he helped me get over my speech impediment he's helped me through a lot of tough times in my life listen to his music just made me a better person I can't believe he's gone
So sorry for ur loss. Usually when a celebrity passes on, im sad due to loss of life but not hurt. Ur right TK is/was special. Im truly sad for this loss. But his legacy will prevail. A tru Oklahoman Patriot. May he be received by God Almighty. Blessings
Cledus,i listened to your song honoring Toby...it was beautiful & wrote with such love for your friend. You the one who has made me laugh on so many occasions,has had me crying twice tonight. I pray God wraps his big loving & comforting arms around you,he hears your words,he sees your tears & feel your heartache,he will never leave you alone.God bless you for sharing your words about your friend,the beautiful song you wrote to your friend & for not hiding your true emotions of your loss. Take care & go get you a few hugs from those people you share time with with Toby...i am sure they could use them as much as you.💔😭💝🙏
So many people from all regions and all walks of life are hurting over the loss of someone so special. You were so lucky to be a part of his life, even if not recently. And someday you can reunite up there again. Take care of yourself
Even if you never met Toby Keith, his music and lyrics made it feel like you knew him. Down to earth and relatable. May God bless the Keith family and may God bless Cledus T.! Thank you for posting this!
I Enjoyed Toby's music and the songs you did with Toby and I enjoy your catalog as well. The best tribute is to share and honor his values until you can meet again. My hope is the industry does a tribute concert this country music Icon for military only and then do a small tour with Toby's Band raising money to help active duty and military veterans with a rotating cast of artist and their bands do a couple of Toby's songs and maybe one of theirs before introducing another artist.
He was a great American patriot and one of the greatest American country singers and will be greatly missed by all. Makes me think of the George Jones song" whos gonna fill there shoes" and the answer is know one can ever fill this mans shoes. Godspeed Toby and may God be with his family and friends through these hard times.
I just heard your song that you wrote for Toby….It was absolutely beautiful and had me crying during it….There is no doubt that Toby is smiling down on you, Cledus and thank you for always being there for him…Rest in Peace, Fly High, and Keep the Beautiful Music coming down from heaven to us all, Toby!! God Sped!!!❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️💔😢
Thank You Cledus for your Memories & sharing them with us about Keith, I know he's smiling down on you! Keep those memories close to your heart until you and your friend Keith meets again...
Very heartfelt kind words Cletus. I teared up when you said you knew he fought that SOB.😢 He truly was an icon and inspiration for a generation! His patriotism, and pro American songs were like a call to arms for those of us who served anywhere and especially the Middle East. We lost an amazing American legend. RIP Toby Keith.
Toby is in Heaven now so rejoice! We can all work towards having a stronger faith in our lord Jesus. Toby left us with an unshakable faith in his lord and savior Jesus Christ. Cledus hang in there brother. 🙏
It truly sucks to grow older and lose touch of the ones of the best years of your life..life happens and you get married,have kids and just get busy just living life and then all of the sudden your parents pass,and then your family and friends one by one... sometimes you feel like your in a game of the last man standing...enjoy your family and friends while they are around....
I’ve spent the day watching all of the tributes to TK, and after 8 hours of watching tributes yours by far is the most thoughtful and visually impactful tribute of all I’ve seen today.
I was a fan from the time I was a young teen, when Should have been a cowboy came out. My family's always rocked out to Toby, seen him in concert a few times, he was always singing for the troops, very patriotic like our family. Like a Cousin. Yes this hit hard. I was just bawling watching him sing that "Dont let the old man in"...almost like he knew.. Sending love but knowing he's With Jesus today. thank you for the video
You're an Awesome Friend to Speak of Your really Great friend Toby Keith🤠...He knew you Loved him and as He loved you... Friendship is Very Special especially when you care and love a friend..Trust is a valuable part of a friendship and I can tell by your stories You two had a special Bond.. Doesn't matter if you lose touch in-between,The Bond, Trust and Relationship is Always There... You'll see Toby again as we ( FAN'S) will as well...I keep telling myself Toby is up in Heaven and joe Diffie was at the gate waiting for Him...He Is Sadly Missed, NEVER Forgotten..He Adored Our Men and Women In Service and America was a place HE STOOD UP For,No matter who's toes He stepped on...My Thoughts and Prayers Are With His Beautiful Wife, Children and Grandchildren ❤️🙏... MareeKirbyFromSouthCarolina 😀🌼🌞🌻☀️😊🤠🎻🎤🎸🎤🎼🎤🎶🎤🎵🎤💙
We lost a good one 🥹. It does sting . For an artist of his stature, he stayed grounded and humble , he was a True Patriot , of coarse a wonderful talented person . Thank You for the beautiful Tribute ❤fromTX
Toby was indeed an icon. What a song writer. This is a very special tribute to him. But you know in your heart of hearts, he is probably saying right now, he was the lucky one. He would be proud of you and the other friends and fans he had like you. I am sorry for your loss. Find comfort in the good times you had. And yes, he fought hard, to the end.
We'll see him again soon up in heaven , god bless you brother , gonna miss Toby , but his songs will still be played , he want be forgotten, prayers for you and your family and Toby's family , RIP TOBY , FLY HIGH WITH THE ANGELS ... CRYIN FOR ME IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS FROM TOBY , AND I DEDICATE THAT ONE AND SISSY'S SONG FROM ALAN JACKSON 😢😢😢😢
God bless you. You were good friends to each other. What a treasure for both of you. May your precious memories fill the emptiness and you know God's comfort and peace.
Cletus, I used to listen to you on cassette tapes on the assembly line night shift, in the 90's. People would ask me why I was laughing... I still have those cassettes. Toby was my favorite country singer of all time. "How Do You Like Me Now" was my theme song. I pray for your heart, mind and soul Cletus. Let that same Perfect Peace which passes all understanding guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus our Only Hope for the ever after. 🙌🙏❤️ ~ Shalom
🥺💔thank you for sharing your memories of Toby. It's tribute like this that show us what a greay man he was on and off the stage by your warm and loving words and pure genuine emotion. ❤
G. Brooks could go today and it wouldn’t hurt like losing Toby. I’m a veteran and felt like I had an ally, a spokesman with a big voice that said it’s ok to love your country.
Here I am crying again. Treasure your memories with TK. We have his music forever. When I lose someone, i like to read a poem by Henry Van Dyke called Gone From My Sight. It helps. 😢
A void.... A hollow.... A vacuum... A heavy empty feel in thee abscense of an essence that's been lost... Grief the new normal.... been down this road to many times. Gotta love friends like Cledus though.. rare breed these days. Prayers to you 👃🇺🇸
I grew up on his music and was fortunate to see him in concert a couple times as well.Heartbroken as we all are this one hurts Truly a great patriot and wonderful man His music and legacy will live on forever Rest In Peace Tony Keith
I’m so heartbroken that Toby is gone but not forgotten like your said he was iconic a powerhouse in country music such a big heart too we will see him again at those pearly gates but he has no more cancer and no pain it’s okay to cry & mourn your friend but I bet he’s up there in heaven raising that flag and singing his songs with all the others ❤🙏🫶
Great speech Toby Keith was and is an Icon and no bs but the morning of the 6th while at work I was thinkin about Toby Keith than an hour later my Ole lady sent me a message about his passing and it blew my mind I just couldn't believe it and I still can't RIP Toby Keith up there while down here u live on forever brother
😢this is any evening of evening's. I came cross your song for Toby and now this. It hit hard! I and friends went VIP every year to the Country Stampede in Manhattan, Kansas and I took my oldest son started him at age 5. Toby was there a few year's and one of those he landed in time from overseas to get here. We had a great time right next to the runway. He was super nice and my son now is 28 and those conversations have been flowing since we heard the news. You are correct! Toby was so talented, caring and appreciative and we fan's loved him so too. Just like you!
When I was a kid, I had all Toby's CD's. He and Alan Jackson were my favorite artists of all time. I can't even count the memories I have of Toby singing on the radio while I went about my life. I didn't know the guy, and I knew I'd probably never know him, but it sure felt like I did. He was with me every time I mowed the lawn, every time I went somewhere in the car, and every time I hung out with friends because his songs were must-plays on my playlist. He was a big, big part of my life and there's not a Toby song out there I couldn't recite word for word. When I saw the news, it was the first time a Celebrity's passing hit me every bit as hard as a close loved one's passing. It's been a few weeks, and it still doesn't feel right. When I see "RIP Toby", I feel like I"m in some alternate universe. And on your side, Cledus, "I love nascar" is a staple for me as a racing fan. I listened to that just as much as I listened to the original song. I remember my dad showing me that parody for the first time on our old dial-up internet connection and us laughing our asses off. So you're a part of the fan's lives as well, and I wanna thank you for that. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.
Toby is definitely one of my favorite Singers of all time, and song writer.. man goes into my first love days, listening to his music! He will truly be missed, but he definitely left one HELL of a LEGACY!!!💯 GO REST HIGH ON THAT MOUNTAIN TOBY KEITH....
I can't see the comments Cledus because you had me crying. Doesn't matter if you hadn't been in touch, he still meant the world to you and you know that and a piece of Toby is in everyone who got to experience him personally or as a fan. Hugs to you Cledus!😢
I'm sure he is looking down on you and LOL ! He was a good man and friend to all. Thank You for bringing up all these stores. We love you and miss him. ♥️😇🙏🏻😞
There was no country music like the country music of the 90's... They didn't even have to have last names. Toby, Tim, Kenny, brooks and Dunn..... When I think back on those times, I should have been a cowboy, brings back a lot of great memories and times!! I HATE CANCER!!!!!!
You do know Brooks and Dunn were their last names right? lol
@@LARRYCAL😂
I'm with you . The 90s country music was the best.
Just like the 80s long hair bands where the best.
@@UtubinAmen
Garth reba trisha
Toby may be gone, but his music will live forever!!!!!
You're a wonderful friend and to speak of Toby's character in this way, also.shows yours. Bless you. All of us in Oklahoma are cryin
A lot of us across the country are crying right along with you. I'm heartbroken, especially for his family.
crying in ca. and I thought losing merle was tough...
Am so sad, what a beautiful testimony Toby gave to us🙏❤️
Okie boy crying in Kansas.
Toby belonged to us Okies! ❤ We were blessed
I believe Toby is in heaven with Jesus and he's no longer suffering.he will be missed on earth.rest in peace Toby Keith.♥️🇺🇸
Prayers to his mom and family. Keep strong Trisha and kids, we love you all!!!
I believe that to! Singing praises to his name
@hopebrowning6300 Toby Keith loved JESUS❤
@hopebrowning6300 We don't know what happened between him and the Lord before he took his last breath. He is a forgiving God. Toby believed in him and his existence. All he had to do was ask for his forgiveness. Everything he did before that is under the Blood
@hopebrowning6300I know how you feel, I keep fighting and struggling to beat this horrible porn addiction. I slip from time to time but I keep getting up and going. I accepted Christ as my savior when I was 15, plus I was baptized I believe 5 years ago. I know I just keep getting up and going, asking Jesus to help keep me on the narrow path and also to keep my oil in my lamp. Please keep me in prayer & I will do the same for you!
As a dairy farmer, “How do you like me now?” and “How do you milk a cow?” are interchangeable songs, and I think of you both whenever I hear those songs. I grew up with you and Toby.
It’s a hard day; the hardest I’ve felt in the country world since Joe Diffie died. You’re all legends to me.
He was one of a kind. Be glad we could enjoy his great music and voice, how he cared about the world. Bless OK Kids Korral we need to donate to that hospital....
Yes!!!
My son was working in a restaurant he was the lead cook he saw Toby Keith and some friends coming to the restaurant he went over and asked him if they were enjoying their meal and asked for an autograph from Toby was so gracious and ask him to sit down with him at the table so he can sign the paper my son gave him to sign the autograph my son sat with them for a while and had a good conversation.
Toby was an ICON. RIP Toby we love and will miss you. Prayers of healing for you Cletus. Love you Cletus.
Beautiful tribute!
Yes you are in my prayers too Cledus and can sing very beautifully as well!! Keep on keeping on! Prayers and try to think happy times more when you were with him!! You were lucky to have known him dear one?
That question mark at the end shouldn't have been there I was going for the exclamation point and hit the wrong key!! SORRY
Cletus you just start saving up your best jokes for when you get to heaven because he’s gonna be one hell of a show you look back on all the icon that we’ve lost in the past 15 years God‘s building the grand Opry for his own self, and put those roundedand guess what you’re gonna be on this stage one day just like Cowboy we all be in the audience just admire everybody and listen to everything they have to say Godspeed brother😢🎼🎼🎼🎼🎤🇺🇸👏👏 and I already told Toby that the first round is on me and you’re invited🥃🥃
That is the most impactful tribute to a dear friend .
😢beautiful tribute to a beautiful man 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
So sad. He was too big to die. So handsome and prolific songwriter

He was a role model for country stars he should be king of country..
Toby Keith was better than Elvis.
@@michelehernandez4217 Elvis was rock an roll not country
You're a good man and a great friend, Cledus. Sorry for your loss, brother.
My sympathy to all who loved him. I am just a fan, and I am heartbroken. I can't imagine how his loved ones feel.
AMEN ,Cletus great words to show the true meaning of friendship , well said sir 🙏
The song you wrote for him brought tears to my eyes
Many of us are grieving at the loss of Toby. He was part of so many of our lives. Many memories at his concerts and listening to his music with friends. He wasn’t afraid to being real. Cherish your time with your friend.

I HATE cancer...... but the one thing that cancer can never take away from any of us is memories. May you be blessed with many memories.
Toby touched many people with his voice and music. Thank goodness his music will stay with us in DVD format and UA-cam. Regardless of what variety of music you enjoy,Toby always made you think,while his music was playing in the background! Cheers to a legend, and a man with a talent to show us the joy of song!!!
Your pain is shared by many people who may not have known Toby , but felt like we knew him!
Bless you Cledus. He was truly an icon that went away too soon. Such is life. We mourn them and we drive on to make them proud. God Bless Toby and his family. He was such a great supporter of the greatest military on this planet. The United States Military!
Yes, he was larger than life....a very good man...an outstanding patriot and probably the best friend a person could ever have. God bless you, all Toby's friends, to his beautiful wife and his children.
How to listen to Toby Keith since I was two years old he helped me get over my speech impediment he's helped me through a lot of tough times in my life listen to his music just made me a better person I can't believe he's gone

Cledus,i listened to your song honoring Toby...it was beautiful & wrote with such love for your friend.

He was a great American patriot and one of the greatest American country singers and will be greatly missed by all. Makes me think of the George Jones song" whos gonna fill there shoes" and the answer is know one can ever fill this mans shoes. Godspeed Toby and may God be with his family and friends through these hard times.
Lost a an honorable family, American patriot and country legend. So sorry for your loss. 🙏🏻

Waking up Tuesday morning hearing Toby Keith passed. Made for a sad day for me.
God bless you. You were good friends to each other. What a treasure for both of you. May your precious memories fill the emptiness and you know God's comfort and peace.
Cletus, I used to listen to you on cassette tapes on the assembly line night shift, in the 90's. People would ask me why I was laughing... I still have those cassettes.
Toby was my favorite country singer of all time. "How Do You Like Me Now" was my theme song.
I pray for your heart, mind and soul Cletus. Let that same Perfect Peace which passes all understanding guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus our Only Hope for the ever after. 🙌🙏❤️
~ Shalom
God bless you always. You are wonderful friend to Toby. Sending prayers to you and family.
🥺💔thank you for sharing your memories of Toby. It's tribute like this that show us what a greay man he was on and off the stage by your warm and loving words and pure genuine emotion. ❤
Thank you for your beautiful words, Dear Heart! God bless you for a loving and heartfelt tribute for Toby. We love you, too.
G. Brooks could go today and it wouldn’t hurt like losing Toby. I’m a veteran and felt like I had an ally, a spokesman with a big voice that said it’s ok to love your country.
Here I am crying again.
Treasure your memories with TK. We have his music forever.
When I lose someone, i like to read a poem by Henry Van Dyke called Gone From My Sight. It helps. 😢
im not a country fan but im a toby fan and always will be my son saw him while he was overseas fighting for us
Bless you❤❤❤❤
A void.... A hollow.... A vacuum... A heavy empty feel in thee abscense of an essence that's been lost...
Grief the new normal.... been down this road to many times.
Gotta love friends like Cledus though.. rare breed these days. Prayers to you 👃🇺🇸
Love you Cletus!!! I’m saddened too!!! I watched him from day one!!!❤️❤️
We love you Toby ! Go easy Brother......
I grew up on his music and was fortunate to see him in concert a couple times as well.Heartbroken as we all are this one hurts
Truly a great patriot and wonderful man
His music and legacy will live on forever
Rest In Peace Tony Keith
I’m so heartbroken that Toby is gone but not forgotten like your said he was iconic a powerhouse in country music such a big heart too we will see him again at those pearly gates but he has no more cancer and no pain it’s okay to cry & mourn your friend but I bet he’s up there in heaven raising that flag and singing his songs with all the others ❤🙏🫶
Great speech Toby Keith was and is an Icon and no bs but the morning of the 6th while at work I was thinkin about Toby Keith than an hour later my Ole lady sent me a message about his passing and it blew my mind I just couldn't believe it and I still can't RIP Toby Keith up there while down here u live on forever brother
I would have loved to have you as my friend. You are very special in many ways. God bless you.
😢this is any evening of evening's. I came cross your song for Toby and now this. It hit hard! I and friends went VIP every year to the Country Stampede in Manhattan, Kansas and I took my oldest son started him at age 5. Toby was there a few year's and one of those he landed in time from overseas to get here. We had a great time right next to the runway. He was super nice and my son now is 28 and those conversations have been flowing since we heard the news. You are correct! Toby was so talented, caring and appreciative and we fan's loved him so too.
Just like you!
When I was a kid, I had all Toby's CD's. He and Alan Jackson were my favorite artists of all time. I can't even count the memories I have of Toby singing on the radio while I went about my life. I didn't know the guy, and I knew I'd probably never know him, but it sure felt like I did. He was with me every time I mowed the lawn, every time I went somewhere in the car, and every time I hung out with friends because his songs were must-plays on my playlist. He was a big, big part of my life and there's not a Toby song out there I couldn't recite word for word. When I saw the news, it was the first time a Celebrity's passing hit me every bit as hard as a close loved one's passing. It's been a few weeks, and it still doesn't feel right. When I see "RIP Toby", I feel like I"m in some alternate universe.
And on your side, Cledus, "I love nascar" is a staple for me as a racing fan. I listened to that just as much as I listened to the original song. I remember my dad showing me that parody for the first time on our old dial-up internet connection and us laughing our asses off. So you're a part of the fan's lives as well, and I wanna thank you for that. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.
God bless you Cletus. We all will miss him. Thank you for sharing your video.
I understand you, sir. My hearts still broken . Rest easy, Toby.
I am a sad fan of Toby and so sorry for your loss ..love and condolences from Ireland
God bless you Cledus you are also a treasure
Toby is definitely one of my favorite Singers of all time, and song writer.. man goes into my first love days, listening to his music! He will truly be missed, but he definitely left one HELL of a LEGACY!!!💯 GO REST HIGH ON THAT MOUNTAIN TOBY KEITH....
This one hurt. 💔😢
I feel your heart. Thank you, Cledus. I see how much you love Toby. We do too. 💔 This one hurts😭😭😭
I can't see the comments Cledus because you had me crying. Doesn't matter if you hadn't been in touch, he still meant the world to you and you know that and a piece of Toby is in everyone who got to experience him personally or as a fan. Hugs to you Cledus!😢
So very sorry! He was a beautiful soul! 😢
I'm sure he is looking down on you and LOL ! He was a good man and friend to all. Thank You for bringing up all these stores. We love you and miss him. ♥️😇🙏🏻😞
Thank you for this video Cledus, what a good friend you were. All love 🤙
I 100% agree Toby was a wonderful and extremely talented man and a huge part of my childhood
You're a good man Cledus. Toby was blessed to have you as his friend. So very sorry for your loss. May peace be upon you through this sorrowful time.
