History of Song “It is a eulogic ballad. Gill began writing the song following the death of country music singer Keith Whitley in 1989. Gill did not finish the song until a few years later following the death of his older brother Bob of a heart attack in 1993. Ricky Skaggs and Patty Loveless both sang background vocals on the record.”
I actually have lyrics to Vince Gill's song tattooed on my back. It was mine and my dad's song. We danced to at my wedding. Vince Gill's "I still believe in you" my dad dedicated it to me when I was a teenager and then we played that as our father daughter dance when I got married.
Vince is legend. He is flanked by two legends Patti Loveless and Ricky Scaggs. Vince wrote this about the death of his brother. This video was released in honor of Keith Whitley passing.
You also need to see/hear him and Patty at George Jones' funeral. Patty carrying him through the song is beautiful. Have the tissues ready when Garth stands up,
The first time I heard this song was at the funeral for my God-Father. Since then it seems a lot of people choose this song to play at the funeral of a loved one. Rightfully so, it’s a beautiful song that fits perfectly for a funeral. The harmonies in this song are top notch! I see where some people have recommended that you check out Vince Gill and Patty loveless performing this song for George Jones funeral. Absolutely check it out!
Saved, Delivered and Healed by Carmen. I was tossed out of the back of a truck and landed on a concrete bridge. I had two broken hips and my left leg was twisted in a way that my little toe was touching my nose. This song means a lot to me because God literally Saved, Delivered and Healed me both spiritually and physically
The first verse is about Keith Whitley who died of accidental alcohol overdose in 1989. The second verse is about Vince’s brother who died of a heart attack in 1993. Vince, Patty Loveless and Ricky Skaggs recorded the song in 1995.
Backed right here by Patty Loveless and Ricky Skaggs, 2 more amazing entertainers. Another great song by Vince is Nobody answers when I call your name, also Backed by Patty Loveless
He started writing it for his brother but didn't finish it until country artist Keith whitley passed. That was patty Loveless and Ricky scaggs singing with him.
The two singing with him are Patti Loveless and Ricky Scaggs. You gotta see Vince and Patti sing this at George Jones' funeral!! ua-cam.com/video/l11oCvBxnQ0/v-deo.html
They're right! You should watch Vince Gill & Patty Lovelace do this at George Jones's funeral!! Vince wrote this for his brother when he died! He's got a beautiful voice! You should try Vince Gill Pocket full of Gold!! P.S. This has been played at least 10 of the funerals I've been to lately, Including my Grandpa's! I won't lie, I cry every time I hear it!!
This is the first time ive heard this song since losing my dad 6 months ago....... I just realized its been 6 months....... This song hits way different...........
Most reactors doesn't realize that Southern or Hillbillies call everybody "son"! What's up son? Nothing. But son you shoulda seen that girl at the store. Son, she was hot! No relation! It's just a friendly remark. Like Dude or Dog. We just say son. Even the women! But when he says love for the father & the son, he's talking about God & Jesus cuz he had just went to Heaven! Patty Lovelace & Ricky Scaggs each have great solo careers like Vince Gill!! And undeniably they can all harmonize beautifully!!
This song came out the same week my uncle was killed in a coal mine , he was 26 and it was his 2nd day at this particular mines. A rock 21 feet long 19 inches thick and 5ft wide fell from 8 feet on him.
@@Any-Okra your welcome 🙏 losing anyone close to you is hard! I'd rather go out quickly than to lay in a bed for month's until you finally pass from illness, so take some solic that it was probably over before they knew it was happening!..may you find peace...from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠
@@billallen4793 thank you. It was quick I'm sure , the coroner said it shifted all his internal organs and ripped his aorta in half. The crazy part is , he told my mamaw (his mom) that if he went back into the mines to work that he would die in there , as if he already knew , anyway, the day he got killed, inside of his dinner bucket , they found his hand written funeral plans , who he wanted to preach his service, what songs he wanted and who he wanted to sing them . It was wild to see that. He had been suffering with mental issues and had just started back to work , when he got killed they had to shut the mines down for inspectors to come in. That happened on a Wednesday, the next Monday when they went in to do the inspection they found that the entire section of mine had collapsed, if Larry hadnt been killed , that cave in would've killed about 50 men.

Yes. Keith Whitley did a song called I'M NO STRANGER TO THE RAIN. Keith, Ricky Skaggs and Vince Gill sang bluegrass together as youths.
This song was written for Vince Gills brother who died
@@Any-Okra @LadyGator1983 literally said that....
Vince is great singer songwriter musician. He wrote this song for his brother. Sang it at George Jones funeral and cried my eyes out
Me too. I saw George on his last tour. The passing of an era. The Greats.
The song was actually written for his Brother
I didn’t know that

My grandpa just died. They played this at his funeral and my grandma was singing along as she cried. Not a dry eye there.
This song has comforted me many, many times after losing someone huge in my life. Thanks for treating it with respect. 💙
All three are Country Music Award winners. This has been played at many funerals. It is not technically a Church song.

we played it for my aunt
This was written singer Keith Whiteley. The the part you liked about facing the devil is from Whitley's song "I'm no stranger to the rain."
“I’m No Stranger to the Rain” was a Keith Whitley song who the song is written for along with Vince’s brother.
Loved your reaction…you seemed to be in your own thoughts/memories. Me too…beautiful song ❤️❤️

hey holla, meant a lot that you did this for me in memory of my mom,
Played this song for one of my fellow soldiers who committed suicide after Iraq. Very touching song
My late husband picked this song to be played at his funeral before he died of alcoholism at age 50, much like Keith Whitley and Vince Gill's brother.
This song was wrote for Keith Whitley who passed away... He sang the song I'm no Stranger to the Rain. You should check that out. Great song...
They played this at my daddy’s funeral. ❤

It means his race was run and heaven is his reward , he no longer labors on earth , but now can rejoice in Glory for evermore

Home Free does this song SO beautifully too🥰Chills on both!
This was played at my brothers funeral, beautiful song
Best ever song! Still cry when I hear it
Vince wrote this about his brother. He passed away from drug addiction...😔
Love for the Father and the Son is God and Jesus. Part of this was written for Keith Whitley then it was finished after Vince's brother died.
I cry every time I hear this.
His brother ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
How beautiful had me in tears ...great reaction thanku so much love and God bless always x
He wrote this song for his brother who passed away
I lost my aunt this past week. This is really hitting me today.
He wrote this for his brother who passed away.
Vince Gill dedicated this song because of his brother that had passed away.

He wrote it for his brother. And. Vince gill is touring with the Eagles
The first verse was written about Keith Whitley and then finished writing song after his brother died. That's if I remember that correctly
Popular funeral song. Stranger to the pain.
We had this played this at my brother’s funeral, in 1998.
We play this at my mother's funeral. To me it's more of a funeral song
It’s about Vince losing his brother 🙏🏻🦅🙏🏻

It was a tribute to his brother
It was to his brother that passed away.
👑
George Jones. He sang it for him at his funeral
Beautiful song
This was for his brother’s passing.
Vince originally wrote this song for the death of his brother
He sang the song with Patty Loveless at George Jones’s funeral and I highly recommend watching that video
No... for Keith Whitley. The last part is for his brother. He didn't have it finished when his brother died.
Not a church song. Originally started in tribute to his passed brother and finished for when his dad died
Written for his brother.
Thx! You might like to check out Ricky Skaggs “A vision of mother” if you like this!
It was wrote when his brother died
Rip mom 😔💔🙏🏽
My sincere condolences and prayers.
Check out patty loveless and Chris stapleton recent duet a
Yes its a church and a funeral song 😢😢
He's brother
This was writtenfor his brother but you need to go see the version at George Jones' funeral. You can see how it affects Vince Gill in that one.
No, it’s not a church standard. He wrote this after losing his brother. Yes, it’s Christian-based. Look for the Father (God), and the Son, (Jesus).
NONE OF YOU ARE FROM THE SOUTH!! LET THE MUSIC PLAY!
It was a tribute to his brother
