I,ve just lost my beloved wife of 56 years ,after 5 day illness,and I,m so comforted by Kenny Sears attutude to losing Dawn,to cancer. He thanked God for allowing him to spend 20 plus ye
This song was meant for Dawn Sears to sing. I have watched it MANY times. This is the first time I ever noticed, a poster behind John Hughey has 12 Oct on it. Today , 12 Oct 2002,my wife and I would have been married 18 years,she passed away in July.
I was privileged to sing on this very same stage with this dream group at the Station Inn. Nobody could mix the charm the feel, the musicianship, and the love like the Time Jumpers. Rest in peace, Dawn and John.
I have been in this business for a long, long time. This is my favorite live recording of anyone, anywhere. This song, this band, this singer was put on this stage at this very moment to do something magical and they did. God bless whoever captured this video and audio footage so the rest of us could be inspired by this incredible, heartfelt, selfless performance. I feel blessed to have heard it and inspired knowing that sound I've always heard in my head and in my heart really exists.
I agree Phil Vandel. This is a once in a lifetime performance. Kills me every time I watch it. What a singer and incredible gathering of players, just beyond words...
I, ve just lost my wife after 60 years as partners and best friends. This recording is helping me so much,especially as I know now just how Kenny suffered when Dawn passed away,and how well he has kept going. Wonderful,talented and inspiring people. Thank you all.
I found Willie Nelson’s recording after my wife of 30 years died. There are so few songs dealing with the death of a spouse. I fell in love with this song. A friend recommended I listen to this performance.
To reply to your question they were trying to kill country music like this to pop it up dawn is the best singer I have ever heard next to pasty cline I would love to see if Carrie underwood can sing this song and keep it going years to come
@@onealfarms9967 I would rather hear Mandy Barnett singing this instead of Carrie. She is another underappreciated singer, but she could do this Mickey Newbury song justice. So could Wendy Moten.
Every time I go back and listen to Dawn singing this it takes my breath away. And I don't mean that figuratively, it literally causes me to stop breathing momentarily and have to catch my breath. She owns this song. It will never be done better. May you rest in peace Dawn.
I already knew what I was going to post but wanted to read a few other people's feelings about this performance and after reading this post by you James Sterling, I have no reason too now. Every word you wrote was my feelings exactly. Down to the catching your breath.....It reminds me of a great song by the great Ricky VanShelton called "I meant every word he said" I meant every word you said James. If anyone doesn't recall that song, look it up and listen. I've gone back at least 30 times since Dawn passed away and have Sweet Memories on several Playlists throughout my phone. She gives me goosebumps. She took that song and made it her own. I think the Time Jumpers just nailed perfection. With a live performance at that. A lifetime award for best live performance of all time would be in order.
+Dorothy Douglas , i had came across Dawn, but in youtube videos. Not too long ago. I knew of the timejumpers and vince gill etc , and listened to a few of their tunes, but that was it. That night I came across Dawn, it was like wow, what a voice, I believe her. So I thought I have to see this singer. This a few weeks ago. Never new what happened. I was planning a trip to go see them. A friend of mine , sees them a lot , I texted him and told how she just capitvated me. He didn't answer. Later that night my phone woke me up. It was him asking me, John you know Dawn died dont you? I was in shock. I was sad, and angry , it is like I only got to experience her for a week, thru videos. I feel cheated. I come back here each time I come into my studio, and play these videos. Its weird, I didn't know her , but watching her sing , I feel like I have know her. It is frustrating. I want to see her sing live, and its gone. She is one of the most pure voices I have heard. Watching her sing, she means it. Its very very heartbreaking .. I cant imagine how her husband must feel. I feel for him. This videos are up, and it has to be hard. Dang Dawn . I hope I see you on the other side .. to hear your lovely voice again.
+John Zagmester, I know how you feel, I was the same. I found her about 2 years before she passed and feel like I lost a member of my family. And Papa John Huey has also passed on, making this a special video of the two of them. God rest their souls.
JohnZ111, I am sorry you missed Dawn. She was The Best Singer, Nicest Woman, Sweetest Person... it always blew my mind that the label idiots didn't support her. They wanted Pop Country and she wasn't that. She was simply Pure Talent.
I listen to this at least once a week. Besides it being in my top 3 best ever performances, it reminds me of some wonderful times going out dancing. What a fantastic voice and band!
What more can be said about this performance that has been said? I love it and keep coming back to hear the sweet sounds. The steel guitar solo sends shivers up and down my spine. RIP Dawn Sears, your angel voice was our great joy to had the pleasure to enjoy.
To watch this woman suffer from terminal cancer before our eyes was horrible. For a brief time a tape she cut in her hospital room was shown. She wept and lamented of how she just wanted to return home and out of hospital. I knew this had to be a nightmare. I've been there. It hurts. What a VOICE ! Mr. Hughey was a rare magician !
I will never forget watching this performance live. The look on Kenny's face as he listens to his wife preach the song is priceless. The pedal steel has just as much emotion as the song itself. This is why these folks are the best of the best.
I have watched this performance many times and I'm still drawn to it. It is just perfect and that is something I rarely say about music. I wish I could describe it. Such an angelic voice backed by world class musicians...each adding their own tasteful and subtle additions. This is is powerful and just good stuff!
A Mickey Newbury 'masterpiece' composition. Not only did Dawn Sears does the the most moving and emotionally evocative version of this beautiful ballad but she dedicated it to the 'memory' and musical beauty of John Hughey,my favorite pedal steel player. Thanks Dawn !
I watch this, oh so many times, it is just pure country. I would have loved to have been be able to jump up from the audience and hold Dawn in my arms and thank her for, well, the pure emotion she was able to instil into this, and all of the songs she performed. Just magic. As for John, perfection. Just exactly what a steel player should be. RIP both of you, I miss you.
Every single person you see here is a gifted musician or singer. Those three fiddles playing in perfect harmony, pedal steel is magnificent, and of course the vocals. I saw Dawn in one of her final performances with the Time Jumpers. Gordon Motes was playing piano that night. She sang "Crazy', and I literally wept. I still can't think about the power of that performance and not shed a tear.
One of the best performances I have ever seen by some of the most talented people on the planet. If you don't comprehend Country music then you will never be able to appreciate how good all of the musicians are on this stage. When I was a young musician playing Rock music I didn't get it. I had to mature as a person and musician to understand the melodies and appreciate the style. AWESOME!
What they are doing musically is way harder than most rockers will get, until like you (and me, another former rocker) finally figure it out. Amazing playing and musicianship right there. Oh, I still like to rock out, but THIS music is where my heart is.
so very well said.....1973 bought my first steel in UK and yes I was in a semi well known rock band back then....Mickey Newberry and Weldon was my inspiration then. and, yes the the time Jumpers rule!
I had the opportunity to see Dawn and this group play about a month after Papa's passing, JOHNS widow in the front row as Dawn sang this to her, OMG.... NOT A DRY EYE, Dawn had a difficult time finishing the remainder, How sad, JUST WOW ...WOW...THE BEST THERE CAN BE!!!!!!!
Why Dawn isn't in the Country Music Hall of Fame will always be a mystery to me. She has by far a better voice than Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton and even Patsy Cline. I just don't understand it. God bless you, Dawn. RIP
Dawn Sears will never ever die in my heart. She was the real deal and her singing lives on forever. She was a teacher of country music and many of us got taught for free. Legend. Hall of Fame material. Wife. Singer. Mother.
Well put sir! She may not have received the right songs when she was trying to make it as a solo artist but if I were one of those song writers who passed on giving Dawn a chance to record their song or the label companies looking for clones of Faith Hill and Shania Twain, shame shame shame. See and listen to this performance then tuck your tail between your legs look down at the floor and GO ON AND GET! Get outside with the rest of the PIGS!🐷
As a steel player I'm always awed by John's intricate playing and the delicate touches he always placed in the songs he played. Aside from that, Dawn Sears and the entire rest of the group are the best I've ever heard. Country music, as it is today, needs to take a long, hard look at the talents and popularity of this group and get back to its ROOTS. There are very few country artists around today who can produce this kind of material and it's at the very heart of REAL country music.
Chillingly beautiful, classic country perfection, and in a LIVE performance! Nothing better ever came out of the most expensive studio in Nashville. The "labels" should be ashamed.
Reminds me very much of the duet of Dottie West and Don Gibson. I just about wore out the grooves on their album, and this song was my favorite track. This is just as good.
Sitting here with tears flowing down my face..again. Dawn sings this song better than anyone i've ever heard! She makes the lyrics come alive. This song is especially meaningful to me because the love of my life passed away a few years ago after fighting valiantly for 35 years,the war wounds he received in Vietnam. This song brings comfort to me , but it also reminds me he's not with me anymore except in my "Sweet Memories"
I’m sad that I’m just now finding this masterpiece. Dawn puts on a master class with this one right here, and man that steel guitar hits you right there in the gut too! Wow this is amazing!
Just a great song performed with excellent vocals, wonderful band including one of the finest pedal steel guitarists the world has witnessed. Thank you all - especially John hughey
I had the genuine pleasure of seeing the Time Jumpers just last night, what a great joy. If in Nashville make a special effort to go to The Station Inn on a Monday night and see this group. Carolyn Martin has left the group but this Dawn Sears is special.
Only Dawn can sing this with her heart, she was friends with Papa John, n his wife, rest in peace John!!! I saw time jumpers in Nashville soon after Papa passing, John widow in the front row and DAWN sang this for her... everyone he'd tears!!! Dawn had a tough time singing it, wow just wonderful!!! Lyle Miller
I've studied country music my entire life, I saw Hank Williams Sr live on stage at the Ryman in the early 1950s, and I've pitched my songs in Nashville since 1961. I also played in nearly all of the clubs, honky tonks, and skull orchards on the KY/Middle TN state line for many years. I think the time jumpers are very close to the best I've ever personally heard, and I also think Dawn Sears was (and is) the best singer, male or female, that's ever been in Nashville.
I am happy Dawn is no longer suffering, that she is face to face with Jesus and rejoicing in the greatest freedom that ever was and is to come. But, I am sad for us, her voice was one of the finest that I have ever heard in my lifetime. My condolences to Kenny and their family and their friends.
I could write a ten-page review on the excellence of this song and video. Having spent nearly twenty years on stage working with a vocalist of this caliber, I can tell you, I feel their love of song. I've been there. And as to Papa John (God rest his soul), He appears to be a humble man and truly spoke the voice of God with those ten-strings. This is probably the BEST live perfomance I've ever heard!
Dawn's voice is amazing. John Hughey, just so wonderful. You'll never hear this on the stupid radio. There, i said it. Thanks to my departed friend, Bill Rehrig, for turning me on to this group a few years back. I miss you, brother.
I may have posted about Dawn and the Time Jumpers before but I can't see it here. I must return to this video a couple times a month just t hear the angelic voice of one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. Knew of Miss Dawn while see was singing backup (not really) to Vince Gill and knew instantly Dawn was something special. Had the great opportunity when I met Vince and his band many years ago. Many words can describe perfection, but you only need, Dawn Sears. And the band is pretty damn good too. Lord how I miss Mrs. Sears
No one will ever Find , anywhere, such Sweet Harmony ..As this Group gives us.. Their Music Contributions Will Never Fade Away....{ Not long as WE Want To Keep OUR Memories. AND Who Doesn`t ? } The Time Will Come to us All...if we Live long enough...That Our Memories ARE What we turn to In our Lonely Hours...While Everything and Everyone else is ASLEEP.
Had great fortune to meeting Papa John and the Jumpers for first time in 2007. What a wonderful man he was. The music world lost one of its greatest treasures.
I can't just listen to this one time......at least 3 times.it almost makes my heart explode!!!!!!! Anyone who has ever loved and lost (passed) knows what I am saying here........memories..memories....love, after 30 years,and this song brings you back every time I hear it!!!!!!!! Pearl
The incomparable gift of the Angelic voice of Dawn Sears touched my heart and soul so deeply. Gone much too soon 😓 So thankful for Videos and Records like this that lives on forever. "Sweet Memories" is my favorite as I reminisce of my beloved husband of 42 yrs. Rest In Peace sweet lady and thank you for sharing your God given gift with us 🕊🌹🕊♥️🕊🌹🕊♥️
I have been a die hard, from the "hillbilly" days, early 1950's , and this is the best female country music voice in the business. A great loss to the music business when she passed. Also some of the finest steel work I have ever heard.
I,ve just lost my beloved wife of 56 years ,after 5 day illness,and I,m so comforted by Kenny Sears attutude to losing Dawn,to cancer. He thanked God for allowing him to spend 20 plus ye
My husband passed away in 2012. He played Steel Pedal guitar most of his adult life. He idolize John Hughey. Thanks for keeping his talent available.
This is the standard that all female singers should be judged by for any of the so-called country and western award shows
This song was meant for Dawn Sears to sing. I have watched it MANY times. This is the first time I ever noticed, a poster behind John Hughey has 12 Oct on it. Today , 12 Oct 2002,my wife and I would have been married 18 years,she passed away in July.
Sometimes the angels stop to listen; and sometimes they call their friends and everyone listens.
I was privileged to sing on this very same stage with this dream group at the Station Inn.
Nobody could mix the charm the feel, the musicianship, and the love like the Time Jumpers.
Rest in peace, Dawn and John.

Well said Phil, well said indeed.
This is what Country Music will sound like when we get to heaven!
You are so right. This was a moment of perfection, and it’s preserved forever. Rest in Heaven, sweet lady.

The best voice that Country Music ever missed making a HUGE STAR , was DAWN SEARS
What were the labels thinking in those days...
To reply to your question they were trying to kill country music like this to pop it up dawn is the best singer I have ever heard next to pasty cline I would love to see if Carrie underwood can sing this song and keep it going years to come
@@onealfarms9967
I would rather hear Mandy Barnett singing this instead of Carrie.
She is another underappreciated singer, but she could do this Mickey Newbury song justice.
So could Wendy Moten.
This song will NEVER be played EVER the same with Dawn and John gone........ May they rest in perfect Harmony !!!!!
AMEN !!
skip coughlan. i agree but just for the hell of it listen to dawn sears daughter Tess singing this song for her mom. bring tears to your eyes.
@@denisjl100 Or Mickey's (the composer) 1973 version'.
Skip Coughlan you are 1000% correct. I met dawn years ago at a fair when her first album came I t and have loved her since and always will
I heard Dawn sing this after John had passed. Sublime.
Every time I go back and listen to Dawn singing this it takes my breath away. And I don't mean that figuratively, it literally causes me to stop breathing momentarily and have to catch my breath. She owns this song. It will never be done better. May you rest in peace Dawn.

She had her own voice, but could sing so much like Patty Loveless. Two of my favorites .Look at Nashville Now!
Not an ounce of ego between them, just fantastic musicians doing what they do and enjoying it. Dawn's voice is perfection.
I have to come here every once in a while to listen to the awesome voice of Dawn Sears. She is gone but not forgotten!

Brings me to tears EVERY time! Dawn Sears was such a powerful vocalist and John's steel playing evokes such emotion. A classic!
AMEN!
Incredible performance..., to say the least! 💔
Perfection
Amen glory to God amen

Paint pictures with your words and let others feel what you're feeling. That's how you create great music or tell a wonderful story.
Just absolutely stunning. Reminds me of my friends when I was in Vietnam 70-71. Thank you Lord.
Wonderful combination of the late Dawn Sears and John Hughey!!! Both were total PERFECTION!!!
To watch this woman suffer from terminal cancer before our eyes was horrible. For a brief time a tape she cut in her hospital room was shown. She wept and lamented of how she just wanted to return home and out of hospital. I knew this had to be a nightmare. I've been there. It hurts. What a VOICE ! Mr. Hughey was a rare magician !
I heard of this song by dawn sears, since then I've heard it by numerous artist, but DAWN SEARS OWNS THE SONG!!!!!!
P
I will never forget watching this performance live. The look on Kenny's face as he listens to his wife preach the song is priceless. The pedal steel has just as much emotion as the song itself. This is why these folks are the best of the best.
When music's this good it makes a mockery of genres.
Chilling Steel..!!.. 💕
Sweet Triple Fiddles…..

There are "Steel" players, Professional steel players and Great Steel players.......... THEN..... there is Mr. John Hughey.... May you rest in peace!
Skip Coughlan Thank You for Agreeing!
My favorite steel player. Many great ones, but he gives me the 'feels.'
He did things with a Steel that can't be done with a Steel. Amazing.
And he ain't whiney.
This music is like a religious experience!
Dawn Sears is a completely gorgeous singer...& woman!
What a voice.Just wonderful.Love these people. thanks . Ken . NW .England.

Me too Fuk Hue.
now this real country music not that stuff what they call country music today i wish was played on the radio
I had the opportunity to see Dawn and this group play about a month after Papa's passing, JOHNS widow in the front row as Dawn sang this to her, OMG.... NOT A DRY EYE, Dawn had a difficult time finishing the remainder, How sad, JUST WOW ...WOW...THE BEST THERE CAN BE!!!!!!!
i've watched this vidieo a 100 times and every time it gives this ole west texas cowpoke chills just love it
Why Dawn isn't in the Country Music Hall of Fame will always be a mystery to me. She has by far a better voice than Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton and even Patsy Cline. I just don't understand it. God bless you, Dawn. RIP
No one sings like this lady … NO ONE>
RIP Dawn Sears. Another beautiful voice has been added to the angel band.
what soul, what a heart, and a voice that's nothing short of legendary! RIP!
Wow, she put everything she had in to this song, Rest In Peace dear lady.
Dawn Sears will never ever die in my heart. She was the real deal and her singing lives on forever. She was a teacher of country music and many of us got taught for free. Legend. Hall of Fame material. Wife. Singer. Mother.
Well put sir! She may not have received the right songs when she was trying to make it as a solo artist but if I were one of those song writers who passed on giving Dawn a chance to record their song or the label companies looking for clones of Faith Hill and Shania Twain, shame shame shame. See and listen to this performance then tuck your tail between your legs look down at the floor and GO ON AND GET! Get outside with the rest of the PIGS!🐷

Country music, as it is today, needs to take a long, hard look at the talents and popularity of this group and get back to its ROOTS. There are very few country artists around today who can produce this kind of material and it's at the very heart of REAL country music.
As Dawn slowly wove her golden thread into night's dark tapestry of blue , We remember every word she said , in the silence that's now me and you .
Chillingly beautiful, classic country perfection, and in a LIVE performance! Nothing better ever came out of the most expensive studio in Nashville.
The "labels" should be ashamed.
Reminds me very much of the duet of Dottie West and Don Gibson. I just about wore out the grooves on their album, and this song was my favorite track. This is just as good.
great song good singer and my long lost friend papa john
Not enough adjectives to describe what I just heard! ... Truly “Talent on loan from God”!
Sitting here with tears flowing down my face..again. Dawn sings this song better than anyone i've ever heard! She makes the lyrics come alive. This song is especially meaningful to me because the love of my life passed away a few years ago after fighting valiantly for 35 years,the war wounds he received in Vietnam. This song brings comfort to me , but it also reminds me he's not with me anymore except in my "Sweet Memories"
Dawn sang this so beautifully-so sad that she is no longer with us! I loved seeing her sing with the Time Jumpers!
I’m sad that I’m just now finding this masterpiece. Dawn puts on a master class with this one right here, and man that steel guitar hits you right there in the gut too! Wow this is amazing!
No one can duplicate Patsy Cline and no one can duplicate Dawn Sears Memories💕
So heartbroken with Dawn's passing. She truly had the voice of an angel. A rare and beautiful gift.
I come back often to listen to Dawn's beautiful voice. I miss her. );
Me too. Almost daily
Such feeling in her voice! And Papa Huey's artistic abilities! What a combination!
Me too!
Me too
Just a great song performed with excellent vocals, wonderful band including one of the finest pedal steel guitarists the world has witnessed. Thank you all - especially John hughey
I had the genuine pleasure of seeing the Time Jumpers just last night, what a great joy. If in Nashville make a special effort to go to The Station Inn on a Monday night and see this group. Carolyn Martin has left the group but this Dawn Sears is special.
I keep coming back to this.
It's transcendental.
Everyone on the stage felt the power of Dawn Sears voice.
Her husband's expression says it all
Whenever I get a yerning for some real country music guess where I go. Gone but never forgotten Ms Dawn
Ah , shucks. I keep coming back to this one every couple months, trying to build up my 'life shield', but it still makes me cry.
An amazing, talented artist gone too soon. RIP Ms. Sears.
This rendition of "Sweet Memories" by those wonderful musicians is a masterpiece to say the least!
THE BEST 6 mins. ON THE INTERNET!
Chanter en souvenir de son doux et tendre Amour...💕❤💕 j'ai le coeur lourd .
Words are not enough to describe how beautiful this performance is! I weep every time I hear it and can never just play it once!
You can't get no better than that!
Only Dawn can sing this with her heart, she was friends with Papa John, n his wife, rest in peace John!!! I saw time jumpers in Nashville soon after Papa passing, John widow in the front row and DAWN sang this for her... everyone he'd tears!!! Dawn had a tough time singing it, wow just wonderful!!! Lyle Miller
Perhaps the most soulful song ever recorded! Missing Dawn and John...
I've studied country music my entire life, I saw Hank Williams Sr live on stage at the Ryman in the early 1950s, and I've pitched my songs in Nashville since 1961. I also played in nearly all of the clubs, honky tonks, and skull orchards on the KY/Middle TN state line for many years. I think the time jumpers are very close to the best I've ever personally heard, and I also think Dawn Sears was (and is) the best singer, male or female, that's ever been in Nashville.
DAWN SEARS WAS A LOVELY VOICE SENT TO US FROM HEAVEN!!!🙏🙏💚
I am happy Dawn is no longer suffering, that she is face to face with Jesus and rejoicing in the greatest freedom that ever was and is to come. But, I am sad for us, her voice was one of the finest that I have ever heard in my lifetime. My condolences to Kenny and their family and their friends.
I could write a ten-page review on the excellence of this song and video. Having spent nearly twenty years on stage working with a vocalist of this caliber, I can tell you, I feel their love of song. I've been there. And as to Papa John (God rest his soul), He appears to be a humble man and truly spoke the voice of God with those ten-strings. This is probably the BEST live perfomance I've ever heard!
Dawn was the best. She made you feel it. RIP Dawn!
Pure country talent and I've never heard a steel guitar talk like it does in this one !!!
Thanks to the memory of Mickey Newberry and his great stories as well .
Dawn OWNS this song!!
I only have one thing to say ! -- WOW. It don't get no better than that.
I am crieng for my husband, to hear this song
What a voice,,, she was terrific,, this is my favorite, too,
I don't know this band but I sure am glad I got to listen to them
Dawn's voice is amazing. John Hughey, just so wonderful. You'll never hear this on the stupid radio. There, i said it. Thanks to my departed friend, Bill Rehrig, for turning me on to this group a few years back. I miss you, brother.
I may have posted about Dawn and the Time Jumpers before but I can't see it here. I must return to this video a couple times a month just t hear the angelic voice of one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. Knew of Miss Dawn while see was singing backup (not really) to Vince Gill and knew instantly Dawn was something special. Had the great opportunity when I met Vince and his band many years ago. Many words can describe perfection, but you only need, Dawn Sears. And the band is pretty damn good too. Lord how I miss Mrs. Sears
Such a beautiful song, sang by a beautiful woman. Thank God for youtube! RIP Dawn
Hi there, how are you doing?
WOW!! This is how it's supposed to be! A perfect lesson on true country music. I am still reeling in my jaw off the floor....
No one will ever Find , anywhere, such Sweet Harmony ..As this Group gives us.. Their Music Contributions Will Never Fade Away....{ Not long as WE Want To Keep OUR Memories. AND Who Doesn`t ? } The Time Will Come to us All...if we Live long enough...That Our Memories ARE What we turn to In our Lonely Hours...While Everything and Everyone else is ASLEEP.
Had great fortune to meeting Papa John and the Jumpers for first time in 2007. What a wonderful man he was. The music world lost one of its greatest treasures.
Why God would take this beautiful woman with such a goddess like voice from us I just can't comprehend.
EVERY single time I hear Dawn Sears voice I get tingles that up and down my spine. She was so marvelous. She will live forever in her recordings.
There has NEVER been Anyone who could do this song JUSTICE ..........other than the Great Dawn & John!!
This is the best version of sweet memories i have ever heard. Love it so
I can't just listen to this one time......at least 3 times.it almost makes my heart explode!!!!!!! Anyone who has ever loved and lost (passed) knows what I am saying here........memories..memories....love, after 30 years,and this song brings you back every time I hear it!!!!!!!! Pearl
Tom Jones for you.😢 Wish you good health and much love.
I just lost my brother, and I thought of this song. Dawn Sears, I know you are singing with the Angels!
Oh my goodness that is very emotional . BULKYELBOWS I agree with 100% no loud playing and no overplaying , kept simple and beautiful.
Almost heaven. Angels assisting!
Dawn Sears, Wow, and John Hughey on Steel, "Sweet Memories" Magical Singing Voice, and The Music Never Comes No Better!
Hi there, how are you doing??
How this woman never had a bigger career than did is beyond me. She is on par , or better than some of the other country singers of her time.
The incomparable gift of the Angelic voice of Dawn Sears touched my heart and soul so deeply. Gone much too soon 😓 So thankful for Videos and Records like this that lives on forever. "Sweet Memories" is my favorite as I reminisce of my beloved husband of 42 yrs. Rest In Peace sweet lady and thank you for sharing your God given gift with us 🕊🌹🕊♥️🕊🌹🕊♥️
Hi there, how are you doing?
Unforgetable Dawn Sears... This song moves me every time ... R.I.P my beautiful Lady 💜 Love from France 💙Blessings to all Time Jumpers 🙏
I have been a die hard, from the "hillbilly" days, early 1950's , and this is the best female country music voice in the business. A great loss to the music business when she passed. Also some of the finest steel work I have ever heard.
