My wife, the absolute best thing that ever happened to me, passed away on Jan 13th 2021 of ovarian cancer. Due to Covid we had to delay her funeral to a celebration of life on Jan 30th. Well I had never heard the song until the week after she died in my arms. But I was blown away and Ray's song was the exit song for my sweet precious wife's celebration of life event.
❤️we are so privileged to have such a love-sometimes more than once in our lives. So sorry for your loss. I know it is devastating as I’ve experienced it myself. Ps 73:26.
My husband passed away on Wednesday, this was the song we danced to on our wedding day. I keep hearing it everywhere..I know that's him letting me know he has been with me all week 💔
You can hear the passion in his voice while singing this gem of a song!! It's so moving and gives me chills because it depicts what my wife is to me and our family!! I love you my rib!!
#RAYLAMONTAGNE #GOSSIPINTHEGRAIN The horns are blaring, the bass is thumping and cousin Ray is singing. What could be better than that? Raymond Charles, you write the best music. You are a true artist. Listening to your music is like watching a painter create a masterpiece. Beautiful 😀👍👍👍🎹🎸🥁🎸🎷🎺💜💖❤️🧡💚💛💙
I love you, Ivonne!! This was our first dance as husband and wife. I will never forget this moment! You are the best thing in my life. Now and forever!
Baby It's been a long day, baby Things ain't been going my way You know I need you here To clear my mind All the time And baby The way you move me, it's crazy It's like you see right through me And make it easier You please me, you don't even have to try Oh, because You are the best thing (You're the best thing) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, baby) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, ooh) Ever happened to me Baby We've come a long way, baby You know, I hope and I pray that you believe me When I say this love will never fade away Oh, because You are the best thing (You're the best thing) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, baby) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, ooh) Ever happened to me Both of us have known love before To come on up promising like the spring To walk on out the door Hearts are strong, and our hearts are kind Well, let me tell you just exactly what's on my mind You are the best thing (You're the best thing) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, baby) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, ooh) Ever happened to me You are the best thing (You're the best thing) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, baby) You are the best thing (You're the best thing, ooh) Ever happened to me You are the best thing (Yeah, yeah) You are the best thing (Yeah, yeah, yeah) You are the best thing (Now, now, now, now, now) That ever happened to me
I just love the way he sings this.....the way he accentuates the word YOU....emphasizing the word ARE!!!!! ♡ ❤♡ He's singing it so plain && simple ♡❤♡ ......omg!!! I ♡ THIS...🎉
I met a person during the toughest time of my life that accepted my extra baggage and wanted to be my friend. They're easily the reason I'm still here. And they're all I think about when I hear this song.
This song resonates so much with me. I am absolutely madly in love with my husband. And more and more in love every single day. He is the one I talk to and turn to, but our journey hasn’t been perfect. Either way, he is the best thing to ever happen to me, and I need him to trust my love is real. Thank you for writing this. It’s as close to my love experience as any song could get.
This was my wife and I's song we did our first dance to at our wedding in 2019. It is now one of our son's favorite songs at 2.5months of age. This song absolutely instantly stops his tears.
A few weeks ago, my dog that I grew up with passed. I will always remember his patient nature that earned him the name Best Dog Ever. You will be missed Oberon, you truly were the best thing that ever happened to me.
It's funny now how you can hear a song that catches you and brings you to tears 😢 This song is first time ever hearing it and it's at a Car dealership and it's my night job and this month is my first year without my wife of 18 years, she passed last May 15, 💔 and I would hear songs and I would send them to her and this is definitely one I would have sent to her even now I still listen to her song by Charlie Wilson, 'You Are " and this song will be on my play list, she will always be 🌹🙏🏽❤
I never knew this was Ray La Montagne until now. Always assumed this song was like 60 years old but it came out in 2008. Feels like I've known it my whole life.
Ray Lamontagne showed up at the right time in my life many years ago, to this day he’s still got it like no other. I was hung up fr, like no other artist ever existed, Jolene being my favorite, but he could sing anything and I’d listen. What a beautiful soul this man has pure, raw, authentic, and vulnerable. You’ll never grow old to me. ❤
My wife and I danced to this for our wedding... 4 years and many more to come. We always come back a few times a year to listen together... Always will be the greatest love song......
My first day of college Jazz Band was yesterday, and we played this song. I don't remember where I've heard this song before but I love this class already.
“And baby The way you move me, it's crazy It's like you see right through me And make it easier You please me, you don't even have to try”Ray set the bar!🤪😂His tunes raise my vibes, my spirits, soul and relationship goals!🙌🏼🌸
I love this guy's voice. The honesty, the vulnerability of it is reminiscent of 70s and 80s soul. Has a simply red, Van Morrison vibe. Loved him since I first saw the trouble commercial.
The melody touches my soul everytime and with that special person that always comes to mind. One thing with music, even when it hits you you feel no pain.
I heard of this artist on The Voice, Sawyer Fredericks mentioned this was his favorite artist. Oh wow, I was blown away! I am a fan forever, love his voice ❤
THXs mom and ada m for listening him when he just born in hospital and welltk care him and build him as he is now...may Allah BleSSING mom and dad and meet again here in Dunya and akhirah ammin 🌟

I don’t know what I’d do without my husband/best friend.
May peace and harmony carry you through this difficult journey☘️
Are you ok? How are you doing?

I am honored to be your wife
And I love you♥️♾️♥️
I’m with my fiancé who’s going through the roughest time but want him to know he’s the best thing that ever happened to me ❤
I have played this song on the morning of my son’s birthday to wake him up for years!! What a wonderful tribute to those we love.
You can hear the passion in his voice while singing this gem of a song!! It's so moving and gives me chills because it depicts what my wife is to me and our family!! I love you my rib!!
God bless you guys for so many years

This song is soulful as hell! I love it!
🔥 🎶 🌞
Everything Ray does is soulful as hell. 😌
Absolutely
Hello beautiful
Yaaaasss! Amen!😊
This is my song to my dog. Instead of being the best thing, he's the best "bean". It's not a romantic love, but I wouldn't be here without him :)
OH SO NICE!
#ForeverGratefulForAngelsOnEarth 🐾😽🐞🦄🪶🦋
I love this dude's voice!!! So soulful
For sure
Its manly!!! Its a manly voice... singing like a man...
Yes! 🥰
I love you, Ivonne!! This was our first dance as husband and wife. I will never forget this moment! You are the best thing in my life. Now and forever!
Baby
It's been a long day, baby
Things ain't been going my way
You know I need you here
To clear my mind
All the time
And baby
The way you move me, it's crazy
It's like you see right through me
And make it easier
You please me, you don't even have to try
Oh, because
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, ooh)
Ever happened to me
Baby
We've come a long way, baby
You know, I hope and I pray that you believe me
When I say this love will never fade away
Oh, because
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, ooh)
Ever happened to me
Both of us have known love before
To come on up promising like the spring
To walk on out the door
Hearts are strong, and our hearts are kind
Well, let me tell you just exactly what's on my mind
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, ooh)
Ever happened to me
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(You're the best thing, ooh)
Ever happened to me
You are the best thing
(Yeah, yeah)
You are the best thing
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
You are the best thing
(Now, now, now, now, now)
That ever happened to me
Thank you so so much!!
My wedding song 🤍💍🤍
I just love the way he sings this.....the way he accentuates the word YOU....emphasizing the word ARE!!!!! ♡ ❤♡ He's singing it so plain && simple ♡❤♡ ......omg!!! I ♡ THIS...🎉
I just heard this song for the very first time. I pray that one day, I will experience its true meaning. ❤
My husband and I used to dance with our son to this song when he was a baby. Son's 13 now and this song still gets me right in the feels. ❤
Awww 😭😭😭😭🥰
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
@@raylamontagnemusic8200nice meeting you too! Love your music!!
@@sharonzona4346 thanks I’m honored have you ever been to our concerts
@@raylamontagnemusic8200 no, we haven't, but I want to so badly! Are you touring? If yes, when will you be in the Atlanta area?
Everytime I hear this song I tell my husband, "here's your song".......he truly is the best thing that ever happened to me!
Do you have ANY advice? This life is hard
Becoming a father made me love and appreciate this song with all my heart
This song was definitely written out of passion, love and clarity... THIS SONG IS “THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME”! 🙌🏾♥️
You a cornball and lame just like this song
Mmmm, “baby, it’s been a long day baby.” Ray, ray, ray, your voice is dope. I thank you for this gem. Smiles to myself. Thanks 🙏
I met a person during the toughest time of my life that accepted my extra baggage and wanted to be my friend. They're easily the reason I'm still here. And they're all I think about when I hear this song.

This old soul. What a masterpiece
I've heard other singers do this song but Ray LaMontagne does it the BEST.
His voice is outstanding.
This song resonates so much with me. I am absolutely madly in love with my husband. And more and more in love every single day. He is the one I talk to and turn to, but our journey hasn’t been perfect. Either way, he is the best thing to ever happen to me, and I need him to trust my love is real. Thank you for writing this.

Best songs to listen and sing on a rainey day
This was my wife and I's song we did our first dance to at our wedding in 2019. It is now one of our son's favorite songs at 2.5months of age. This song absolutely instantly stops his tears.
My soon to be wife (November 17, 2024) introduced me to Ray and she did not disappoint! Pure soul in his voice!
I've felt this way about a couple of people in my life before, but it never worked out. I still love this song so much ❤️
Been singing this song to my baby boy since he was in my belly. He is 2 1/2 months now and smiles huge when it’s time for our song🥲❤️
This is more than just a song, it's a memory, a dajavu, a first kiss, a first love, a marriage, a reassurance. ❤ THIS is B.K.A OUR SONG😘🥰🥰🥰🥰
A few weeks ago, my dog that I grew up with passed. I will always remember his patient nature that earned him the name Best Dog Ever. You will be missed Oberon, you truly were the best thing that ever happened to me.
keep your head up my guy
this just made me cry so hard I'm so sorry. 🤍🤍🤍
named after the Beer from Bells?!

This song just started running through my mind so I had to look for it. ❤️👍
Everytime I hit my bowl after work, I HAVE to play this song🥰😅🤞🏾

The biggest one my good sir. Bless you .
*Sings* "Weeeed is the best thing...." XD

Every time this song comes on I turn to my children and sing the chorus to them...they roll their eyes stinky teens and smile 😅
First time hearing this artist! Blown away! Holy cow!!!
This is beautiful
The Lord is with you both Robert!
I love this guy's voice. The honesty, the vulnerability of it is reminiscent of 70s and 80s soul. Has a simply red, Van Morrison vibe. Loved him since I first saw the trouble commercial.
You know jealously envy obsession gossip isn't my thing folks Kindness and Love is what I enjoy 😊❤❤
This is my wedding song! My wife is the absolute best thing to happen to me…well, equal to when we rescued our dog, Buddy.
I was shopping for food and this song played. I thought this was from 1967 from some unknown soul singer. Thank god for Shazam. This song is great.
Hell yeah man. It does sound from the 1960s.
I’d love to have this song sung to me…wow
One of the best songs ever!!!
❤️❤️Josh...another year...you are the best...Tara
The melody touches my soul everytime and with that special person that always comes to mind. One thing with music, even when it hits you you feel no pain.

Thank you to my best friend for showing me some of the BEST music... love you Frances 😉
