    Beautiful voice; so anointed by God to bring love, hope, & encouragement to so many of us, in his days here on earth. May we all see and accept that God is the author of all of our stories, and He wrote a beautiful story thru Freddie’s songs. The Holy Spirit supernaturally guided me to this song today, and it is bringing healing to me, from years ago hurts in several of my relationships , & the memories of my deceased husband saying to me: “If anyone ever harms you, or our children, I would kill them with my bare hands.” As I listen to Freddie’s words in this song, it appears they are the feelings that my husband was trying to lovingly express. May Freddie’s songs live on, to bring the healing to others that this song did to me, today. His heart was the compassion of God’s ♥️ of love. 🙌🎶✝️⚓️🙏👏👏

To this date that I know of he still hasn't been placed in The Hall Of Fame, and what about Johnny Rodriguez. He's not in The Hall Of Fame.

    Freddy entered the studio. He sings the song completely in English. Estelle Parsons, stops him, after listening to the song, "Freddie, could you do me a favor and sing part of it in Spanish." He had to be pushed into singing it in Spanish. "There are millions of Spanish music buyers...it will increase the sales triple." And, it did. Well done Freddy

    How in the world did 3,621 people (as of this writing) give this a thumbs down? Freddy Fender had one of the greatest voices of all time. Very few artists have ever been capable of putting the amount of emotion into a song as Freddy. George Jones, Marty Robbins, Hank Williams Sr., Merle Haggard, and Lefty Frizzell are the only artists that immediately come to mind. I'd say that's some pretty darn good company.

      I was engaged to a woman who had a child to a previous marriage- her little daughter's father took off (literally disappeared) when the child was 1 year old. He filed for divorce and was gone- little to no explanation. I dated this woman for 2 years before we got engaged, and we were engaged for one year- we set the wedding for one year after the date of our engagement. The child was 4 years old by this time and I was the only "Daddy" she had ever known. I loved that little girl like my own, and I sincerely loved her mother so much so that even though this happened 20 years ago it still hurts to think about it.
      Anyhow, weeks before the wedding the child's father came back into the picture. He swooped in and said he had "grown up" and finally realized how much he had loved her and the child. My fiance was so confused, she still had feelings for this man. I hated seeing her heart ache and her world turned up-side-down. I loved this woman so much, I wanted so badly to keep her and be with her forever... BUT, I was one of those men who said "it's your happiness that matters most of all". It became clear to me after many discussions that she still loved this man, but was torn and didn't want to hurt me. Her happiness was more important to me than my own feelings... I can't even describe how bad it broke my heart, but I gracefully bowed out so she could be happy. It was the hardest thing I have EVER done in my life, but her happiness was more important than anything to me.
      He took them away to Florida where he had found a good job and I never saw them again for many years. I did NOTHING but cry for a long time... not only to lose this person I loved so much, but the little girl who was like my own daughter was also gone. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat. Saying I was a mess would be an understatement. My whole world and everything that mattered to me was GONE. I would get updates from my fiance's mother who still lived near me. Her mother said it would be best that I don't write to them and further confuse the little girl that ached for the only daddy she had known. I honored that and stayed away. I was very confused also for a long time, I kept wondering how it was so easy for her to just walk away from me- what I had done wrong, all those questions that haunt someone with a broken heart.
      Around 2 years ago my ex fiance moved back here to my area. I have been married for many years now and have a wonderful family (4 kids) and love my wife very much. But, even though I ended up with this wonderful family and am happy, when I saw the woman who broke my heart so many years ago- my heart still dropped into my stomach. It took the breath from my body to see her. When I saw her for the first time after all those years she quickly took off to avoid me- pretended like she didn't see me. About a week later an old friend of mine had also ran into her and he called me and said she told him to tell me that she would like to have lunch with me that weekend. I didn't want to go. My wife said to me "I trust you, you should go and end it once and for all". So at my wife's insistence I agreed to meet with my ex fiance that Saturday. I sat and waited at the diner near my house, when she walked in the same feelings came over me- heart in my stomach and so forth. She looked so afraid... she started to cry before she even got to my booth. She walked right up to me in tears, her hands were shaking, and she put her hand on my face and softly said through tears "I AM SOOOOOO SORRY".
      I am glad I went. It ended all of those years of wondering, and gave a proper resolution to something I hadn't even realized still bothered me so much. It felt good to know that it wasn't as easy for her as it seemed to just walk away from me. We talked for a while, hugged and I left. It felt like a weight had been lifted.
      Anyway, I told you this big long story this morning just so you would know that there ARE guys out there who DO SAY "your happiness matters most of all" despite their own feelings. I'm not saying I am better than anyone else- just that sometimes when a man loves someone so much, he does prioritize her feelings above his own. It does happen. I am sorry you were hurt, nobody should ever have to go through that. I know what it's like. Thank you for letting me tell this story to you. I was thinking about it all this morning which is why I was listening to this song, then I saw your comment and thought I would share the story. Have a wonderful day :-)

    • @patmelton43
      @patmelton43 10 років тому +2

      KLUNKET WOW!!! Thank you for sharing that. I am sorry you went through such pain but it sounds like you have a wonderful family now. I was asking God just last night why some people seem to suffer so much in this area while others appear to just sail through life. My conclusion is that suffering makes us better people, maybe a little gentler.
      My ex-husband betrayed me almost immediately by sharing with his mother every thing I told him in confidence. He ruined a relationship with my sister and me by blabbing something I had shared with him out of my pain. It was a terrible experience and I had no better sense than to share it with him. I needed to talk about it with someone who would understand and yes, sympathesize and maybe offer a little comfort, but he TOLD her. To me that was a major betrayal. I am so glad he later left me for another woman -- now! But for so many years I felt rejected. I am way too sensitive. While time has not exactly healed, only God does that, it has clarified that his leaving was the best thing that could have happened to me.
      We have children so I still have contact with him and I really like his wife. His current wife is not the one for whom he initially left me. She still tells me, "why didn't you warn me about him?" Now, he complains that SHE tells everything he shares with her!! I told him, "God really has a sense of humor, doesn't he? Remember, how you blabbed every thing I ever told you? Remember the extreme embarrassment you caused me? It's payback time." Actually, we are all friends now. It was so long ago that now my ex feels like someone I grew up with and it's peculiar how God worked it out that we could be friends after so much heartache.
      I just want him and his family to be okay now. God has so blessed me and I am pretty happy.
      It's good to know there is someone like you out there! God bless you. Pat

      Pat Melton You are most welcome- I am not sure what prompted me to share that story, its just that after reading what you wrote it just seemed appropriate.
      Again, I am so sorry you went through what you went through- nobody deserves to feel that kind of pain. I have to agree with what you said, through that suffering we become better people.
      Because of this woman I loved just taking off like she did without making any attempt to even let me know they were OK or anything- I had a distrust of women for a while after that. When I met my wife (of many years now) I was very hesitant to commit for fear I would just be hurt again. I also became very jealous thinking that every man she came in contact with would be the one to take her away from me. Because of this I was way harder on her than I should have been back then. BUT, that has also turned out to be a good thing. Our relationship survived those hard times and eventually restored my faith in love. That has created a bond that is seemingly unbreakable today. We have been married for the better part of two decades now and to us it still seems new! I guess happy endings do happen sometimes!!
      Take care, If you ever need someone to talk to, just send me a note!! God Bless...

    My Spanish sucks, and this song still tears me up. Must be the way he sings. RIP, Senor Huerta.

    Man, it had to be a real treat to see Freddy Fender perform in person. Just look at his expressions and mannerisms he puts into his singing. Can you imagine doing The Same Songs so many times and putting out so much emotion for your audience repeatedly for years? True Talent!
