Kat Warren so is mine, I never get tired of hear him sing- and watch his movies- just to look at him. He stole my heart. MY late husband and I saw him at the Oakdale theater in Wallingford, ct back in the 1980’s what performance. Rest peacefully Ken ❤️
Kenny Rogers is a hell of a singer and a powerful man, you have given me and so many other people pleasure in their lives still listening 2019, sad to think that KENNY's no longer singing, I wish him happy retirement 💝
"Kenny"... You are the sweetest music man ever. ...You've got the most magnetic voice tone ever. ...I've never listened to a singer is singing with a better voice tone than you...you are always been outstanding & will be remembered forever in the music yard everywhere in the world..
You have been my favorite my whole life.... they made fun of me in jr high and high school But I stayed strong Thank you for such a beautiful musical career I saw u 3 times Never enough u are the best
No, not Elvis. Waylon Jennings. The story is that he had a long conversation with Jessi Colter while on a plane ride, and this song was the result. Keep in mind, at this time Waylon was still on cocaine and living a destructive lifestyle, and Jessi was getting fed up. The very beginning of the song has an intro, that seems to be rarely performed, has the lyrics "I didn't listen, and I couldn't see. And all I have left now, are words you said to me. 'Sing your song Sweet Music Man....'" With the intro, the lyrics in the song make sense, as Kenny wrote the song to be sung from Waylon's perspective, lamenting the words Jessi said to him before she left him. Fortunately, Waylon cleaned up his act and he and Jessi had many happy years together.
Whenever I am down I always come back to this tune…….what a song….watching from United Kingdom….i miss Kenny…..

He wrote this about Waylon after a long conversation he had with Jessi Colter
Kenny sings about himself from rags to riches..
But did he really write this about Elvis ?

Waylon Jennings...
By the time Kenny finished the song, he said it was about him.
No. Waylon Jennings
@@fedupwithstupid6253 Thank you so very much for that information. I liked Waylon Jennings songs also.
R.I.P. Kenny Rogers
