A Picture of Me (Without You) is an album by American country music singer George Jones. It was released in 1972 on the Epic Records label.
A Picture of Me (Without You)" is a country music song written by Norro Wilson and George Richey.According to Rich Kienzle's liner notes for the 1994 Sony retrospective The Essential George Jones: The Spirit of Country, the song was written specifically for Jones with co-writer Norro Wilson singing the song for George "imitating the Jones style to show how he wanted it sung. Even with the string arrangement, the country feel remained undiminished". The song is similar to an older Webb Pierce song called "That's Me Without You". It was originally recorded by George Jones, whose version peaked at #5 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart in 1972. In his 1995 autobiography I Lived to Tell It All, Jones quoted lines from the song to describe his own sadness at the passing of his brother-in-law W.T. "Dub" Scroggins in 1993.

Lyrics:
Imagine a world where no music was playing
Then think of a church with nobody praying
If you ever looked up at a sky with no blue
Then you've seen a picture of me without you
Have you walked in a garden where nothing was growing
Or stood by a river where nothing was flowing
If you've seen a red rose unkissed by the dew
Then you've seen a picture of me without you
Can you picture Heaven with no angels singing
Or a quiet Sunday morning with no church bells ringing
If you've watched as the heart of a child breaks in two
Then you've seen a picture of me without you
Love
The first thing comes to mind is our wves with this song
A lot better John Lennon’s “Imagine”. GJ the greatest singer of all time. Loved him since
Thers is allways loveimg you
Best in the west

Hello friend, how're you doing today ??
Hi Billy hope you're okay?
No one can sing a country song, with so much feeling, like Ole George Jones can.
It’s 4/22/21 and I’m missing Mr. Jones! America isn’t what it once was after you passed!
Now sadly our lives are a picture without you dear George miss you so very very much......
This is a wonderful song. George was the best. He was my dad's favorite and they were born on the same day. God was sending blessings to earth on that day.
Hello friend, how're you doing today??
Was lucky enough to see him twice in concert. What a one in a million voice! RIP George.
Hi Kristine hope you're okay?
R.I.P. George, you will be greatly missed. Heaven has gained another Angelic voice to it's choir!
Hello how are you doing?
Too lazy to put Rest In Peace.
@@briandevillier9850 Who cares?
I can't believe George has been gone ten years.
His passing didn't affect me as much as it should have, since he passed two days after my only son was killed in an auto accident at 24 years old.
I still miss them both terribly!
Oh my goodness so so sorry!!
Now this country. When country wasn't cool. Yes, yes, his album was the first album I got for Christmas when I was in the 2nd grade now I'm 65 still got it. Love him miss him . ❤️ R.I.P
@@jamesmarc6844
You must be a George Jones fan too your replying to my comment here.
@@jamesmarc6844
I hope you have a great day, I usually don't make comments on here to the others on here that make comments, I thought George Jones was worth doing ghat. No sorry we can't do that ,I'm a married woman and my husband probably wouldn't like me doing that he would be right in me doing it. Hope you stay safe. And can find you a friend or partner if that's what your looking for. But it can't be in me. Blessings!!!!!
Just can't seem to shake my sadness over George's death. But, I still have his music to keep me going. Long live REAL country music!
I never get tired of listening to him I would’ve done anything to see him in concert he is truly the king of country
Rip see you in heaven George
I'm not a big country fan but this is one of the best vocals I've ever heard!
Him and Tammy.. those crying voices😢😢😢😢💕💕💕💕
Imagine a world without George Jones country music just isn’t the same’ without” him.
I was George at the King City fair when I was young. I grew up listening and relating to his music. That kind of music is borne out of real headache and experiences. There will never be another George Jones. Who gonna fill his shoes..............
Love you George, you are so right, been there lived thru this. God Bless
Hey Renee how are you doing ?
George is just one singer in a million that made Country Music his own because of his unique style and his never ending devotion to traditional Country Music. If traditionalist don't keep it alive, this new music that goes under the skirt tail of Country Music is just like the wind that blows when a storm comes through. "Its only here for a little while."
George had the best voice in the history. God bless you George and I hope you sing for god in heaven
Au contrere he n vern gosdin were th BEST
Amen!
Wickan Wickis the deck of cards
No one was even close to the Possum. The absolute greatest of them all.
He died the same day my dad did. April 26th 2013. If I know my dad and George they stopped for a drink before reaching the pearly gates.
Me and my sons favorite 💯
This song is my favorite country song what a unique voice RIP George. How are you Sandra ?
Rest in Peace my old friend,,,I praise and lift GOD s name up in your memory now, Thank you dear LORD for George's music, gifts and time with us here... We praise you FATHER for all your good and perfect gifts as only YOU can give..your unworthy and faithful servant, rickey downtown Brown
It's difficult to get the wonderful range that George had in his fabulous voice. The angels will be under pressure. Gerry Farry.
Merle Haggard always said he could copy any voice except George Jones.
Hi Rina hope you're okay?
One of the greatest (if not the greatest) singers and songwriters ever born. Love....love George Jones! ♥
Linda Bruner @ Hi ! , hope you’re having a beautiful day,How is the weather condition over there with you and your households,I like the song keep doing great Job stay bless hope to hear from you soon.
Hi Linda hope you're okay?
No auto tune. Only natural angelic voice 😍 I'm 27 and love these classics. I'm sure my future kinds will love them too.
In 1968 I was 12 and rock is all I was listening to. I was messing around with the radio and came across George singing and I said to my friend who the hell is this .
There have been better musicians in better songwriters but no one has ever had a better voice than Mr Jones
@ZackWilliam-fg6cs Great how about you?
Such a pure, unique sound that cannot be replicated..
I first saw Mr. Jones at Opryland in 1993... Alabama was playing the same night. Saw him again a few years ago in Bossier City with my grandparents... one of my favorite memories is sitting there with them as he sang A Picture of Me Without You. A very poignant moment... this song means a lot to my family. They're both gone now but I'm looking forward to seeing Mr. Jones on his Grand Tour in Arlington, Texas on October 5th with my aunts and uncles... should be great show!
My song for my Daddy,,Love and Miss y so much Daddy. I know your playing your guitar and singing with George xoxoxoxox
Exactly. He was best ever and my son still loves his music till this day. He’s been writing songs for many years now. Hopefully one when he gets out of prison he can have them copy written

What a song! Perfectly performed! 🙂 💛
I can't imagine living in this world at this time without the steel guitar and George. Both of you have died and you're not coming back and we have to live without you both. Country music has died and was buried with both of you.😢
why is it that all the great country singers go way before their time and no one left to fill the empty shoes.
williamthegreat73 -Same reason all the beautiful cars are gone from the scene. We go thru eras where things begin to change, then one day they're gone.
Beautiful,he sings from the heart.One of the best voices ever.RIP George.This is the way I feel about my husband May he RIP.I love you my. Darling.See you soon 🙏💝🙏💝💙
