  • Keith Whitley's "Kentucky Bluebird" performed by Zach Top.
    Lyrics:
    Blown down the highway by two different winds
    Lord only knows when I'll see you again
    You're 'bout as close as the stars up above
    You're my long distance love
    Kentucky bluebird
    I heard your song today
    But when I try to touch you
    You fly away
    Blue is a feeling I'm learning so well
    Turn on the TV in another hotel
    Turn down the volume and stare at the wall
    God I wish you would call
    Kentucky bluebird
    I heard your song today
    But when I try to touch you
    You fly away
    How I hate the miles between us
    They get longer each day
    I had this dream and you should have seen us
    Holding each other and drifting away
    Kentucky bluebird
    I heard your song today
    But when I try to touch you
    You fly away
    Kentucky bluebird
    I heard your song today
    But when I try to touch you
    You fly away
    You fly away
    Written by Don Cook & Wally Wilson

    Been playing music all my life. How absolutely refreshing to hear a young man like this, singing country from his soul. Let's me know that there is hope for real "Country Music" yet. Great job brother. Stay the coarse.

    Mr. Zach Top traditional country music needs you to save what was once cherished by all the legends.
    When i hear ya sing my idol Keith Whitley it makes me feel 8 & 9 all over again not 44 & body broken from surviving Cancer in 2021.
    Keith Whitley is the voice of "HEAVEN" & to quote Bret Hart
    🥇The best there was.
    🥈The best there is..
    🥉The best there ever will be...
    The greatest country singer to ever live, nobody can hold a candle🕯to Keith Whitley!
    Notable mentions below him in my opinion are Randy Travis, Alan Jackson, & George Strait, to name a few but they aren't on the same level as Keith Whitley.
    Keith began singing Bluegrass he could sing low Baritone & instantly without missing a note switch to a smooth falsetto all with perfect pitch.
    Keith Whitley is the Elvis Presley of country music.
    I was 9 when Keith died & apart of my broken 💔 heart went with him.
    🥹🕯🥺

    Zach, God has gifted you with an amazing voice, it is so expressive. Great guitar pickin' too. I think it's awesome a young man like yourself is playing real traditional country music. Keep up the great work and play something from Alan Jackson if you don't mind. Thank you for sharing your God given talents.

    Keith Whitley is my favorite singer. I never thought I’d hear anyone cover that song that I would like as much as Keith’s version but you nailed it.

    You are on my “rewind” continuous play. ❤️ Initially blown away by your voice and connection with the lyrics & message- such a country soul in your voice. Lately- I have come to focus on the acoustical purity and guitar talents- your picking of the strings is identifiable, uniquely your finger print. So rare to have the full range of musical talents… God Blessed You Son… Thank you for sharing your special gifts with the world. ❤️ Keith is smiling… I just know he is…

    Don't know how I'm just finding this, but damn it son! My favorite Keith Whitley song, I ve heard a lot folks do it, but never heard it covered that good, I mean with the perfect lil breath details Whitley done, plus put yourself in at as well! Seriously the best Whitley cover I ever heard, along with Josh Ward covering " Between an Old memory and me"! The next superstar for sure, best of luck to you, hell I'm fan as of right freaking now.

    Zach, I just want to thank you for inspiring me to work harder at becoming a better singer. I’ve always thought volume was everything and I lacked control and dynamics. I never did vocal warm ups / exercises before but now I do them every morning on my commute to work and on my way home. I want to sing as elegantly as you do it’s truly inspiring brother! I’m also proud that you’re from Eastern Washington as well I’m from Moses Lake haha! My favorite song off the new record is definitely “I Never Lie” gonna try my hardest to see you at watershed this year at the gorge!
