      I remember my dad sitting on our screen porch. He’d play electric Gibson guitar and sing Jim Reeves
      Songs. I would sit with him and play rhythm on my hollow body Epiphone. We played all the songs of the country artist. Mama played the violin. My sister played the piano. We had hoot nannies with friends every Friday night at someone’s house.
      One of those friends died this week. She was a beautiful woman with a fantastic voice and such talent on the piano. Mary Ann was her name.
      Today I rode around the farm playing one of her favorite songs fräulein.
      Rest in peace, Mary Ann.
      I’m 75. The last alive of that group. Such wonderful memories of those times and those people and those songs.
      I still look forward to every new day. Life just gets better. Never looked back. Look forward. Live life to its top. You get no redo. No makeover. This is it. Live.
      Thanks

    Jim Reeves brings back childhood memories of listening to my Dads tapes. Dad passed away this weekend and listening to this again is emotional but consoling.

    I wish today's country singers would learn proper singing by listening to Jim Reeves. His voice is natural and not contrived like so many of today's country singers.

    Jim Reeves must have been a favorite of Elvis Presley because many of Jim's signature songs were later covered by Elvis himself. After listening to Jim sing I can see why Elvis had him in his collection. Reeves had one of the smoothest, silkiest voices I ever heard. His material was always chosen wisely and his quality remains to this day. I wish more people were aware of Reeves today. He was not outlaw but he was not corny or hokey either. A class act.

      You know Jim and Elvis had a good relationship ever since their time together at the Louisiana Hayride. At one occation in 1960, when Elvis was to have a recording session in Nashville's RCA Studio B, the musicians were told they were to back up Jim Reeves, while it really was Elvis, to avoid a stampede of people coming to see Elvis at the top of his popularity. Of course Jim didn't mind.

    My mother and father both loved this man. I've listened to him so many times. I actually thought I would be sick. Funny thing is when my boys were infants and my wife couldn't get them to sleep I would walk the floors with them and sing all Jim Reeves songs to them. They would fall asleep in my arms. All his songs came back to me. All I can say is Thanks Jim.

    Frankly, a tone of voice like Jim Reeves's at this age, so beautiful and soft, is a gift of God, not given to everybody though in 2023. The more so, this song can be meant for all our dears, be they our spouse, children, etc, and even the Almighty God. Blessed be everyone here.

      Yes, I have a question for you, you're facing eternal danger of hell in front of you! Only way to avoid falling in that pit of hell is only by receiving Jesus Christ as your Saviour & Lord!
      Never prostrate before a man made idol; but only before Holy spirit tells you in Bible.

    Lyrics: I love you because you understand, dear
    Every single thing I try to do
    You're always there to lend a helping hand, dear
    I love you most of all because you're you
    No matter what the world may say about me
    I know your love will always see me through
    I love you for the way you never doubt me
    But most of all I love you 'cause you're you
    I love you because my heart is lighter
    Every time I'm walking by your side
    I love you because the future's brighter
    The door to happiness, you open wide
    No matter what the world may say about me
    I know your love will always see me through
    I love you for a hundred thousand reasons
    But most of all I love you 'cause you're you

    I am originally from Barbados a little island in the Caribbean. I grew up listening to Jim Reeves songs in the 1960's. Every Sunday morning we will hear is gospel recordings on the radio. His golden voice was truly a blessing to the ears. There are times when tears would come to my eyes listening to his songs, because is music brings back many, many wonderful childhood memories. I think of my friends, school,the old neighborhood. I can still the voices of my neighbors resonating in my ears.
