Left my wife for another in the late 1900's ,thinking I was doing better for myself. I praise God we're back together again. I listen to this song and pray for the fool who chooses lust over love. A man can be so very stupid.
I’m crying at watching her pain. I know that feeling all too well. My marriage ended in 2009 and I dated a little bit but tired of being hurt so I said no more. I’ve been single for over 10 years now. Sometimes it’s lonely, but I’d rather not have a partner than have my heart ripped out again like that
She gets the so called best because she is his wife not his mistress! There isn’t anything powerful in another woman knowing he is married but still precedes. When will women start supporting women and leave the dirt bags alone!
I love my husband with all of mu heart and soul and I am so grateful that GOD GAVE ME YOU!!!!!!!! My baby forever and for all eternity ❤ Your beautiful wife- J. Wilkerson
Well let me start off by saying as an African-American woman a lot of people don't think we like country music but we love country music this song is so touching to see her cry tears actually brought my knees and tears because as a woman I can relate to this on both ends of the coin haven't always been a proud of my actions put this song has made me stronger still listening to the song in 2024
Not all of us stereotype. I was at the grocery store yesterday and a carload of African American dudes were blasting Metallica out of their super sub/amp stereo in their car. I took my time loading my groceries because I was enjoying the heck out of it.
Music speaks to us ALL! Anyone with a soul❤ the good music that has the power to move our souls. .doesn't matter what type of music it is❤ we're all one❤ fighting this battle together
My mom used to listen to this song over and over. She’s been gone 5 years and listening to it makes me feel close to her. What a sad song. I miss my mom.
You said your mom has been gone for the 5 years now that she used to listen to the song over and over but isn't this a new release? I'm sorry for your loss❤
This song is what I'm dealing with the same thing but I'm the girlfriend who is being cheated on and I let him come back to wake up to him being gone again back to her the pain is the worst I ever felt
Christians eyes couldn't reckon the pain from toners eyes because she is not Andrea.christian is just a product of one of echos cameras in my house watching us get it on at the stove. He's just a fixed image. Of there sickness.
Anyone who's ever been in this situation feels this song on a different level. Shame on the man or woman who awakens a love with no true intentions of nourishing it.
I’m currently going through this now. It’s heartbreaking for me honestly. Her ex always harassed her causing issues with us and she’d leave. I’ve been broken for a while
I agree and it's a powerful song and another powerful song is Sara Evans A Little Bit Stronger cuz you can't let one bad experience or 20 bad experiences break you you have to get stronger otherwise you lose out
November 2023 and this song still cuts like a knife through my heart. The tears in her eyes. The cry in her voice. Even the expression on Kristian Bush’s face as he plays the guitar. He knows the hurt she’s been through. This song will remain timeless in my book!
This is what I call real country music... it touches your soul and heart. Wish we had more of it being created today instead of all of this shallow commercial junk...
@@sethadams2460it is actually a true story about her as the side chick. The guitarist refused to do another take when the producers wanted to. He said you already put her through enough. Pretty sure it won video of the year
Wife of 19 yrs walked out on me and our 5 kids last July. We spent months homeless or in a shelter. After countless 60 hr work weeks I made us a home again. Now after all our struggle and after she's had her fun, she wants back in. It hurts, but after careful consideration I have advised her to stay.....stay gone, stay away. Sad but kind of happy at the same time. God, this song reminds so much of all the times I begged her to love me. In the end it was for the best. Great song
When I lost my husband 5 months ago I couldn't find the words to express how I felt when I heard this song tears was pouring down my face uncontrollably God always takes the good one we are the ones that are down here missing them so much my husband and I had.a great 18 years together he was still young 43 I always say " until we meet again " thank you for this song R.I.P. my love
Sandy, she was going through a divorce at the time so it was emotional to her. That's why it's a great song, the emotion she was feeling came in the song.
I was married for close to 30 years when my husband left me for a woman at work. It tore me up and almost broke me. The absolute darkest time of my life. Sometimes I was so broken I felt like I couldn’t breath. It’s been 3 years since that day and while I almost can’t stand to remember the feeling of the darkness, I am proud that I made it through a time where I almost gave up. Some people comment that maybe we will be friends in the future when the pain passes. I always reply, absolutely not. I have no desire to relive the absolute betrayal from a man who disposed of me like common trash. No thanks! I spent so many years feeling worthless and alone. I don’t need to live that way ever again.
I’ve listened to this song 100’s of times over the last 10 years. As she’s singing her eyes are telling a story. It’s as if you can see into her soul and it always brings tears to my eyes.
I don't CARE if you like or don't like country music - if THIS song doesn't move you - I question if you have a heart. Her voice, the way she emotes - and if you're watching and see her eyes - you can't NOT feel something. After all these years, this song STILL chokes me up.
Especially if you were the wife with a cheating husband waiting at home for a man to come home never knowing whose lap he's been in on the way home from work. Song hits me the same way it did the first time I heard it. I'm lucky enough to have a man now that will never do that to me.
Oh that voice! One of the best ever in country music! Just superb. Would love to hear a new song from her---- even former president Obama made a favorable comment about her voice! 💕 🌹 rosita
It's an understatement to say devastation is what one feels when a marriage ends due to infidelity. I was more than shocked since it was a close friend. I'll keep all who have experienced what I have in a general prayer.
I use to play this song over and over again when it came out. I was the wife, but felt like the other woman. My husband spent all his time and affection on other women. This song gave me the strength to say enough. And I left my husband. It was the hardest decision I ever made. He was the love of my life, my whole heart. My husband never thought I would ever leave him. He changed his life completely, and won me back. Our life our love our marriage was happy, unfortunately that was only for a short time. 5 years later he died in my arms at the age of 51. My heart forever broken He was and will always be my 1 true love. Even with all the pain he caused me. I truly loved him, and he did change 100 percent.
My husband and I have now been separated 6 years and divorced 3 yrs. He also was ( at least I thought) was the love of my life. And the 24 and a half years I never saw him doing no wrong and blamed it all on myself. But now i know things I didn't but my heart aches for him still. We were 15 years old and I was 38 when we separated. He's moved on to someone else the one I think was kinda in picture. But my heart feels like it will always be broken. I trust in God and I have to much love to give someone that deserves it as much as me. It's just in his timing and a broken 💔 will be healed. So happy you and your husband reconciled and so sorry for your loss.
It wasn't based on her own experience. The song was inspired by Reba McEntire’s “Whoever’s in New England,” which was written from the perspective of a wife whose husband is cheating on her. Nettles knew countless songs written from that viewpoint but none from the other two people involved. She says most people don’t realize that even the person who is doing the cheating gets hurt as well.
Beth Rightmeyer.. Finally someone else that know's she never lived this experience. If half these Idiot's done a quick Google search they'd know this..
“ I’ve given you my best, why does she get the best of you?” One of the greatest lyrics I’ve ever heard like I can relate to that one line sooo soo much
I have my roots in rock and roll and at 59 starting to really enjoy so much country music. In the past I've been a fan of country pop crossovers like, The Dixie Chicks, k.d.lang, etc... now I find I'm listening to bands like Sugarland, Lady Antebellum and various singer-songwriters. Any suggestions in who to listen to given that I love this song and the singer? I spent all of yesterday listening to Allison Krauss. Thank you!!! elliedeprima@gmail.com
I love performing this song, even in noisy bars, it seems to stop people in their tracks, just one of those heart wrenchingly soulful songs that can not be ignored. ❤
Mann,when I see her sing,I can feel every heart break,every tear drop,every sleepless night,every prayer asking " God,if I can just have that one person,I wont ask for anything else", all the endless pain and so much more. God,she really,really puts her heart in the song.
To all you happily married people, thank God you are, because the worst feeling next to loosing a child is to loose the love of your life because she wanted the greener grass on the side of the fence. Then they realize it’s not and comes home like nothing happened. It will tear at your soul and slowly drain everything good about you until you are empty inside. The trauma to your head and heart is like what a soldier gets on the battle field, you will never be the same again. I pray to all the people in love please don’t ever cheat on your partner, leave them first it won’t hurt as bad as cheating. Amen from an empty soul
The "other" woman in his relationship also got her broken. But she was the wise one broke off the relationship. She sent him back to his bed with his wife, even tho she loved him.
every time she sings this I feel itl deep in my soul. She sang it with her whole heart. Almost as if she's really experienced it. Regardless of the topic she sings it beautifully. Soulful music!!
A song that became an anthem. A song that evoked so much emotion, so much heartache, so much "real". Jennifer and Christian nailed this one and it will forever stand out as one of the strongest breakup songs. Well done.
I like the last third of this song where she's up off her knees and is moving on. so motivational for me. too many times I've had my heart broken to someone that doesn't love me
Ive been through it more tines then I cant count but my fiance I have now is not like this he loves me with everything he has and he does more for me then anyone ive ever been with it took so many years to find him it was love at first sight with us hes the best thing that has ever happened to me cant wait till the day we get married and start a family
This literally breaks my heart every time I watch it! Seeing the beautiful and talented Jennifer Nettles get so emotional touches me greatly! This is a fantastic song! And I didn't even know it was sung from the perspective it is when I first heard it several years ago! I still love this song and I love Sugarland! I hope they come out with some new material together soon!
she does get very emotional. . she can probably truly relate to the song probably touches most people we have all vee. in those shoes once.. once shame on you twice shame on me
+robert hastings She wrote this song when she found out that her husband was cheating, and when she gets emotional its because this song is a true reflection of her own situation. :) but yes a great song, and im pretty sure we all can relate to it in one way or another!
She is just downright awesome she probably wanted the most beautiful women singers around because she sings it from the heart that's what makes it so good sugar Land is awesome and she's awesome
You know you’ve healed when this song no longer breaks you. ♥️ Such a beautiful song, I will never forget the tears I cried while listening to this song over on replay.
Someone needs to know they're loved.. You'll never realize how important you are.. You're beautiful and exceptional.. The world is better with you in it..
@@September_2011this is from wiki. Not trying to attack you. I’m just an it is what it is person and this is what her song it about. "Stay" is a ballad of infidelity, taking the perspective of the mistress of a man who is cheating on his wife. It begins with the mistress's insistence that the man stay with her - even if his wife should call and ask where he is - because she (the mistress) is "so tired of being lonely". Although the man tells her that he will leave his wife for her, she refuses to believe him, telling him that "it's too much pain to have to bear / To love a man you have to share". In the third verse, the mistress then changes her mind; according to Nettles, she (the woman in the song) "has her own sense of redemption and realizes she deserves more than being with someone who will never be fully hers".[3] This change is revealed in the final chorus. In the song, Nettles' vocals are accompanied by Kristian Bush (Sugarland's other member) on acoustic guitar; unlike most other Sugarland songs, Bush does not sing harmony vocals. The only other instrumentation in the song is an organ, played by Bush's brother Brandon.[4]
@@September_2011 Mandy?! A police officer?! They go to school for criminal psychology. They know how to manipulate people. My mother kicked us out for her married police officer boyfriend. I’m happy your husband is doing good May God continue to keep him straight on a path of sobriety, happiness and May he continue to stay loyal not only to you but his children. I’m sorry for all you went through but the song isn’t meant to be interpreted differently she speak about what the song is meant as. You can’t change what the artist already said it was. It’s her music that she wrote
jeez my mom listened to this song a lot when i was a kid because my dad and her got divorced because he cheated , i loved it a lot but i didnt understand why she liked it so much. Now im a 21 year old man now about to cry everytime i hear this song play because i know now she was broken deeply. this song will forever be a healing experience for me 16 years later shes happy remarried living a life i thank god shes living today because the sacrifice she went through working almost 3 jobs to support me and my sister. i can never thank her enough for what she did
The same here my husband cheated on me and it broke my heart it was like I got stabbed a million times I don't know why he did it I gave him the world I treat him the best gave him everything he wanted and I have four kids I raised by myself two jobs taking care of the kids when I will come home we'll get three or four hours of sleep head back to the other job while he was messing around and doing his drugs I didn't know what was going on but I stand hard for my own two feet and hell my head up high for my kids I had to make it every time I hear this song it hurts like I'm getting stabbed all over again by him I don't ever forget him but it's a sin not to forgive somebody so I got forgiven I don't talk to him I don't have nothing to do with him I try to stay away from him because it just brings memories of him abusing me man to leave physically and then while he was doing what he wanted to do without me knowing and it hurts every time somebody will call he will leave and tell me what's going to the corner store you wouldn't come back to the next day so I feel you how you feel for your mother I hope you feel me because my heart is trying thousands of pieces like a jigsaw puzzle I don't know where to begin I'm still by myself making it in this world my kids are growing up I'm glad that I made it I had my head up high to keep going even though I will cry in the nights and the restroom when I was taking a shower I will cry why why did I do wrong I don't know but I gave him the best I gave him the world I will do everything for you and you turn around and stab me billions of times broke my heart into a puzzle well I don't know where to put it back together again so I feel for your mother Gloria Flores
This song helped me walk away and know that I am worth so much more!! Lies and heartache and holding on to someone you love so much, to just be an option.. never again.. my heart still aches but I know that it will heal and I will get what I deserve from someone that deserves me! Thank you for such a great and emotion filled song.. it really touched me and helped me!!
I survived and married a man who loved just me! Married young, at 16 he was 19, got drafted to Vietnam! Came home never the same! Shared him with his mistress, she had a son 6 weeks before I had our daughter! I did this for 12 years, didn't want my daughter to blame me! I married someone else! 22 years together!
This is why cheating is never the answer! It DESTROYS both women you are involved with, AND yourself too 💯 I loved that she did both perspectives in this song, beautifully written and her voice....that of an ANGEL!!! 🙏🏼❤
Yes it does. 10 years and I am still dealing with it. My heart and soul will never be the same. 33 years of faithful marriage 4 combat tour wounded and she left me and I had to recover on my own. Just a year and a half ago I started feeling a little more like the man I used to be and today I am doing good. But still hurts like hell. But I keep moving forward.
I remember vividly as a small child, sitting in the car with my stepmother as she bawled to this song on the radio. I didn't fully understand as a kid, I just knew my dad was hurting her and it was a lot for me to grasp at the time. It wasn't until I got older and realized what the song meant that I bawled at the reality of what my father put her thru. While my stepmother has left me with emotional scars, I still cry when I hear this song, for all the pain he caused her all those years...
If your stepmother "left you with emotional scars", then that's your father's fault too. It's not a step parents job to take care of a child. She didn't bring you into this world. That's the responsibility of your birth parents and it's on your father for not being around and leaving you with his wife.
@@thescourge6989 when you marry someone that already has children you "marry"them too. It's a package deal. If you cant care for thier children then you shouldn't be with them.
And she deserves to be treated a lot better can't believe she sings a song about someone who doesn't care anymore I remember that feeling everything is gonna be ok.....anyone still listening in 2020
I sometimes think it's not someone.but her own a diction. U know Mr Jones. How the monster lies betrays.uses us.only to spit out the corpse.she was spared now she's being cheeky.laughing in a place few ever fall. Tears as real as the personification of the entity that was her first love her world her forever truest form pure.had the world the decency to not force their chains.and conform.there soft death. And warp the young mind
I understand her pain ...I remember what it was an I caught her red handed ..JENNIFER MY DEAR DON'T EVER GIVE UP....LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU KNOW..I CAN IDENTIFY WITH THE HURT, ,,,
I'm not one to listen to country, and typically avoid watching music videos to avoid their marring of my interpretation of the songs... but I stumbled across this while seeking for inspiration in my own work, and I'm so glad I did - despite the heartbreak I felt for you and my now-runny nose and tear-stained cheeks. Thank you for being authentic, for being vulnerable, and for bringing the soul back into the artistry of music. The world needs more of the raw, unfiltered human experience, and less of the shallow content that's being shoved down our throats from all directions. The respect and admiration I've gained for you in less than 5 minutes is astounding.
One of if not THE most heartfelt performances of any song videos I have ever seen. That was absolutely awesome. A beautiful lady with an incredible voice.
@@rhondaboncutter5812 the passion we once felt for each other turned to complacency , that's when I found more love in a bottle . Been chasing ghosts from then on .
@@mikelcage6438 yeah man alcohol feels like the ultimate friend to kill solitary in these times but it also do one thing that is slowly destroying from inside(the organs)
If you listen carefully to the song, the first part she says "he always goes home", she's the MISTRESS, not the wife, listen carefully. I just heard it and felt so dumb...
I feel the same way Victoria. I don't know if it's the passion she puts in it or the message it relays, but I always end up in tears and yet can't stop listening to it. Glutton for punishment???
This was an amazing song when it came out and still is today. So much talent and emotion. If you don’t feel moved by this song check your heartbeat. Sugar land is an amazing group!
Wife of 12 years left me in 2011 & everytime I heard this song it hurt my soul, but years later I'm greater & through it all I stayed strong for our kids whom are grown men now 23 & 20......GOD gives us all tough battles to test our strength.
12 years later and this video still gets to me. has to be the best example of somone singing about something they are living through you cant fake that emotion
She said in an interview that it was about her friend that was living as the other woman. Kristian, the guitarist, said he couldn't be in the same room when they were recording this. Every time she would start to cry, he wanted to run to her and hold her.
@@lonnieadams7841I also heard that interview.... they had to clear the studio as it was so heartfelt... She's an amazing artist to be able to portray such hurt from a friend's perspective
It's so sad that her can do it so good there so good they can do it all right on yall I lost my mom 2 years ago I hurt so much sugar land... from cody Barrera y'all
You can see that her green eyes are cloudy Grey. You guys out there, watch your girlfriend's eye color! If it gets brilliant,... prepare to loose your virtue. If it's leaning toward Grey, get ready to loose your girl.
@@marybentley843 think about it from the other side. I'm pretty sure it wasn't her idea... and if you absolutely had to pick a time to die, ... when would be the good time? Lost mine in 08. Feelin' Y'all, Thank God we only have to do it once for each parent !
She’s better live believe it or not!!! Saw her in Valdosta Ga many years ago. Zac Brown band was new and opened for her. Omg what a voice! And she’s a tiny little thing!
One of the best videos ever made... that raw emotion just pouring out of her... my God. I can't relate to the song exactly, but it's beautiful and the look on her face in the video just makes me break down every time. I just want to hug her.
She actually didn't. Don't know where you found that information but, you probably shouldn't call people dumb if you don't know what you are talking about either..
this song breaks me every time I hear it, I was with a man 10 yrs older than me for 6 1/2 yrs he controlled me totally and the abuse I suffered mentally,physically and even sexually was meant to kill me but I survived he would leave me long enough to go to her bed then come home and beat me but being so young with no one to help I was trapped and in the 80's they didn't have the resources we have today, I got away Thank God remarried to a great man but he suffered a massive stroke then a seizure that nearly took him from me now 3 yrs later we are just friends that live under the same roof he feels less a man due to well he can no longer be a true husband but I will never leave or cheat he saved me when I had no one. He is and always will be my one true love.
Hey, hi, I'm from Russia, Moscow, you are a very, very big fellow that told such a story and were not afraid, I hope that you are a very, very beautiful girl, you very, very strong times have experienced such torment and such grief and torment in your of life, well done, you are just an amazing girl, I want everything to be fine, that you smile, and that you no longer allow male bastards to raise your hand against you, I, I don’t want you to cry more, do not cry, let everything will turn out in life for you, I’m a guy, I live in Moscow, I’m 23 years old, I don’t have parents (well, they’re like, but they’re bad, they are traitors, and father and mother), I don’t have a girlfriend, I was once, but she turned out to be much worse than my motherfuckers, the same traitor bitch, after I found out that she had betrayed me, I just picked and hit her, hit him once, packed my things and left, and nothing more connected me with her I just can’t stand the traitors, I despise them, he and they probably think that they are the smartest on earth and that everything is allowed and allowed, I don’t have anyone at all, I alone, alone, survive as I can, I sing songs with country guitar on the streets of Moscow, I don’t have anyone, not a loved one I don’t worry about a person, either friends or a girl, anyone, but I have only me and no one else, and the worst thing is that I’m afraid to be left alone and not to die alone in the hands of a guitar ... Be happy, I believe that you are a very good person, I don’t know where you live, but I’ll kiss you now, that's all, kissed, God bless you ....
Jennifer I'm having surgery about 10 hours and I'm listening to sugarland's music you guys are great the good work going to try to go to your concert in Wisconsin with Little Big Town thanks John
The first guy, I begged. I cried. I still remember the pain. But no one should should have to beg. Eventually I learned. If I am not good enough, then don't stay. I finally know my worth. Be with me for me. If it is not good enough, why don't you leave? Life has been great since.
lher6425 Ive been thru that same shit. I cried and begged him the whole time he was packing. The irony is this year he comes back wanting to work it out. It felt so good to tell him to kiss my behind. Im using my HUSBANDS youtube. So glad I let him walk.
I'm a guy Alicie & hits me deep in my heart after 20 years of marriage honey & it hurts on my side too its not just a girl thing I promise you that . Hurt does not have any conconce at all I'm afraid .
This is a great song. You've a beautiful n' powerful voice n' your performance in this video is incredible, you're a wonderful artist, thank you for this amazing song.
don't wanna shear us with another I love u to this day but u can't keep me to ur self when I share u why can't I try to find someone u alwAys go back u never stay just stay u took them words just stay
The raw emotion that you talk about is real during this time when this song was being done she was in the middle of going through a nasty divorce with her husband at the time who she had recently found out was cheating on her, hence the divorce, which also helped create this song.
It hurts when I see a wonderful woman getting hurt. In that song I can tell you got hurt. I am so sorry please stay strong and keep singing your beautiful heart out. God bless you
This perfectly illustrates how hard it is to leave someone who you care for but you know that it's bad for you. Just because it hurts and it upsets you doesn't mean you're weak minded or desperate.
my god i can relate soooooo much to what you say!!! i do miss her, but shes no good for me and all that happens is pain and suffering.....I HATE SEEING WOMEN CRY!!!!! it really does break my heart into a million pieces!!!
This song reminds me of the time back in 2018 when i got cheated on and she walked away from me with my cousin and now i am kinda glad that happened because now i know how to show someone i really love them and that i should't get so much attached to someone like i was with her cause i think that's what cause us to break up in the end
Texas Girl That is exactly why I didn’t get evolved with a married man lol we known each other for about 3-4 years an he came out of the blue an asked if I wanted to be in a sexual relationship, for 1 I had a big guess he haven’t been happy for a while in his marriage but that still doesn’t say okay I can go out an cheat on my wife !! An the kicker he has 3 beautiful children witch just pisses me off cheating on a Wife/Husband isn’t right but hell this day in age almost normal !! But to bring kids into it an YOUNG kids I’ll say oh probably under 8 ! My guess is he either doesn’t believe in divorce an he’s 1 of those believers that think they will go to hell if they get divorce lmao I NEVER got that belief it’s NOT okay to divorce but it’s Okay to cheat as long as you go to church on Sunday to say your Sorry to God !!! Such a BS belief in my honest opinion! Or well this could be on the SADDER thing the reason he won’t get divorced an holding onto til the end if he’s NOT a Real Cheater lmao, he’s a Dr an doesn’t want to get divorced cause he knows most likely wife will get HALF !! Witch granted where we live I’m sure he doesn’t make a shit load of money for a Dr cause it’s NOT a big time City an he’s just a Family Dr .. But could be wrong lol God Bless All an God Speed !!
We live... and we learn. Sometimes you have to lose something to know and appreciate what you had. It took me 3 great relationships to finallu figure that out.

“I’ve given you my best, why does she get the best of you?” Is so powerful.
She gets the so called best because she is his wife not his mistress! There isn’t anything powerful in another woman knowing he is married but still precedes. When will women start supporting women and leave the dirt bags alone!
Amen!!
Here, here!

Christian’s eyes look so melancholy. He can feel the pain she’s expressing. That’s a forever friend.
He actually had them stop having her sing it after a few times of recording it
He wanted to stop recording Jennifer wanted to continue to film. I know this is a fact. My twin daughters' mom is married to Jennifer's brother
This song is what I'm dealing with the same thing but I'm the girlfriend who is being cheated on and I let him come back to wake up to him being gone again back to her the pain is the worst I ever felt
Christians eyes couldn't reckon the pain from toners eyes because she is not Andrea.christian is just a product of one of echos cameras in my house watching us get it on at the stove. He's just a fixed image. Of there sickness.
@@AngelHernandez-yb4fwalmost may 24 . She is the best
Anyone who's ever been in this situation feels this song on a different level. Shame on the man or woman who awakens a love with no true intentions of nourishing it.
Wow no truer words have ever been spoken. Awesome quote.
I’m currently going through this now. It’s heartbreaking for me honestly. Her ex always harassed her causing issues with us and she’d leave. I’ve been broken for a while
I agree and it's a powerful song and another powerful song is Sara Evans A Little Bit Stronger cuz you can't let one bad experience or 20 bad experiences break you you have to get stronger otherwise you lose out
@@justinbunn3273 you will pull through brother.🙏
I it's easier to be alone, I guess those deployments finally caught up w/ me. It doesn't hurt when I was better off being by myself.
The tears in her eyes. The cry in her voice. He knows the hurt she’s been through. I could listen to her all day long.
November 2023 and this song still cuts like a knife through my heart. The tears in her eyes. The cry in her voice. Even the expression on Kristian Bush’s face as he plays the guitar. He knows the hurt she’s been through. This song will remain timeless in my book!
This is what I call real country music... it touches your soul and heart. Wish we had more of it being created today instead of all of this shallow commercial junk...
WORD'S WELL SPOKEN!!! HITS CLOSE TO HOME... I was the Guy she referring to 😢
I see I'm not the only one that loves this song
It’s from the side chicks perspective which makes it even better
@@sethadams2460it is actually a true story about her as the side chick.
The guitarist refused to do another take when the producers wanted to. He said you already put her through enough.
Pretty sure it won video of the year
Wife of 19 yrs walked out on me and our 5 kids last July. We spent months homeless or in a shelter. After countless 60 hr work weeks I made us a home again. Now after all our struggle and after she's had her fun, she wants back in. It hurts, but after careful consideration I have advised her to stay.....stay gone, stay away. Sad but kind of happy at the same time. God, this song reminds so much of all the times I begged her to love me. In the end it was for the best. Great song
Roman Gallardo Let her stay gone - she doesn't deserve you and your kids.
But it's life
I hope it works out for you all man give you all of my heart to you bub
Sending u blessings many many blessings♡♡♡
Respect. You're a strong individual and a great father.
Mar 2024 checking in. This song randomly popped in my head the other day. Been meaning to listen to it. Love this song and she put her heart into it.
Here for this amazing lady❤
Me too!!
When I lost my husband 5 months ago I couldn't find the words to express how I felt when I heard this song tears was pouring down my face uncontrollably God always takes the good one we are the ones that are down here missing them so much my husband and I had.a great 18 years together he was still young 43 I always say " until we meet again " thank you for this song R.I.P. my love
Her emotion while performing this song appears as if she's reliving a personal moment. 100% chills.
She was, research it
Just looked it up - Jennifer wrote this song. It’s as personal as it could be.
A lot of tears and sometimes a lot of pain😅
This is what real music is.
Sounds like what my life was. Brought me to tears.😢
The raw emotion in her voice and on her face adds SO much to this song. Absolutely love this song!
Hello Sandy how are you doing today
Sandy, she was going through a divorce at the time so it was emotional to her. That's why it's a great song, the emotion she was feeling came in the song.
The background story with her is so sad
You was beautiful just the way you were
I had no idea she was going through that but the raw emotion she gave to that song was enough to see something wasn't right in her life@@jamescook6564
I'm ready to cry - who hasn't felt this pain? she is an artist! She should have 20 grammy awards.
I haven't felt this pain. I've never slept with a married man.
Sandy Cant say ive ever been a homewrecker sleeping w married people no
Its her husband cheating. I know the pain. Im coming up off my knees now
🙋🏾♂️ I’ve felt it
I've never been with a married man and I hate homewrecker
Jennifer was almost in tears at the end, shows you how much she puts into a song.
I was married for close to 30 years when my husband left me for a woman at work. It tore me up and almost broke me. The absolute darkest time of my life. Sometimes I was so broken I felt like I couldn’t breath. It’s been 3 years since that day and while I almost can’t stand to remember the feeling of the darkness, I am proud that I made it through a time where I almost gave up. Some people comment that maybe we will be friends in the future when the pain passes. I always reply, absolutely not. I have no desire to relive the absolute betrayal from a man who disposed of me like common trash. No thanks! I spent so many years feeling worthless and alone. I don’t need to live that way ever again.
Hello Ann how are you doing today
God bless you I'm going through 20 years for him to cheat every chance he can it's about killed me but I will survive thank you 🙏
Terminally single here because 30 years & 5 husbands proved this song would never not be my daily life.
Hope you are well.
I'm the same way.
Sweet Ann I hope you’re well my friend ❤
I’ve listened to this song 100’s of times over the last 10 years. As she’s singing her eyes are telling a story. It’s as if you can see into her soul and it always brings tears to my eyes.
She is a great actress. Watch coat of many colors.she plays dolly partons mom.
She’s been there….period ….
i noticed that as well and it hurts
Same
I agree never personally experienced this but damn the raw emotions..the crying the lip shaking....wow
I don't CARE if you like or don't like country music - if THIS song doesn't move you - I question if you have a heart. Her voice, the way she emotes - and if you're watching and see her eyes - you can't NOT feel something. After all these years, this song STILL chokes me up.
This song is ass though
I’m heard country music but this touch my soul
Especially if you were the wife with a cheating husband waiting at home for a man to come home never knowing whose lap he's been in on the way home from work. Song hits me the same way it did the first time I heard it. I'm lucky enough to have a man now that will never do that to me.
Oh that voice! One of the best ever in country music! Just superb. Would love to hear a new song from her---- even former president Obama made a favorable comment about her voice! 💕 🌹 rosita
"emotes"?
Jennifer is so expressive. She puts her all into every song. Love her.
The passion in this video will forever be remembered. She literally poured her heart into this song.
you don't know how to use the word literally.
@@brianbytheocean and so the fuck what. Dont be RUDE. you never know what someone is going through.
♡♡♡♡
@@brianbytheocean he used
He used the word just fine stop it!
It's an understatement to say devastation is what one feels when a marriage ends due to infidelity. I was more than shocked since it was a close friend. I'll keep all who have experienced what I have in a general prayer.
I use to play this song over and over again when it came out. I was the wife, but felt like the other woman. My husband spent all his time and affection on other women. This song gave me the strength to say enough. And I left my husband. It was the hardest decision I ever made. He was the love of my life, my whole heart. My husband never thought I would ever leave him. He changed his life completely, and won me back. Our life our love our marriage was happy, unfortunately that was only for a short time. 5 years later he died in my arms at the age of 51. My heart forever broken He was and will always be my 1 true love. Even with all the pain he caused me. I truly loved him, and he did change 100 percent.
You give me hope
You’re an angel 👼 God bless you.
I’m truly sorry but I’m glad you two reconciled for a little while…bless you stay strong sweetheart ♥️
My husband and I have now been separated 6 years and divorced 3 yrs. He also was ( at least I thought) was the love of my life. And the 24 and a half years I never saw him doing no wrong and blamed it all on myself. But now i know things I didn't but my heart aches for him still. We were 15 years old and I was 38 when we separated. He's moved on to someone else the one I think was kinda in picture. But my heart feels like it will always be broken. I trust in God and I have to much love to give someone that deserves it as much as me. It's just in his timing and a broken 💔 will be healed.
So happy you and your husband reconciled and so sorry for your loss.
This here! Felt this
This lady has a very beautiful voice.. She sings this song with so much passion. I love this song.
Scott Weighill It's because her husband cheated and left her during this time. So it was very real to her.
It wasn't based on her own experience.
The song was inspired by Reba McEntire’s “Whoever’s in New England,” which was written from the perspective of a wife whose husband is cheating on her. Nettles knew countless songs written from that viewpoint but none from the other two people involved. She says most people don’t realize that even the person who is doing the cheating gets hurt as well.
Beth Rightmeyer well said and I love this song because it shows the other side of a love triangle.👊🏾😎
Beth Rightmeyer.. Finally someone else that know's she never lived this experience.
If half these Idiot's done a quick Google search they'd know this..
Way you can't stay
No one tops the emotion she sings the song with.. No not even Dolly. Not even a conversation this girl nailed it...!
She played Dolly’s mom in the movie about Dolly’s life. She’s a fantastic actress. Also, I love Jennifer Nettles.
Dolly is the queen 👸🏼
This song still hits me 13 years later. What an incredible performance by an amazing vocalist.
Indeed. It’s like a fine wine.
It’s better every time you return for another sip.
(I just wish I could stop crying every time I return)
❤️ to all.

Beautiful voice, strong and emotional. One of the best female country singers ever
I have my roots in rock and roll and at 59 starting to really enjoy so much country music. In the past I've been a fan of country pop crossovers like, The Dixie Chicks, k.d.lang, etc... now I find I'm listening to bands like Sugarland, Lady Antebellum and various singer-songwriters.
Any suggestions in who to listen to given that I love this song and the singer? I spent all of yesterday listening to Allison Krauss.
Thank you!!! elliedeprima@gmail.com

You must be a good singer to make people listen 😊
@@dawnv4225 I try.
Mann,when I see her sing,I can feel every heart break,every tear drop,every sleepless night,every prayer asking " God,if I can just have that one person,I wont ask for anything else", all the endless pain and so much more.
God,she really,really puts her heart in the song.
I know,because I have been thru it, DAMN IT HURTS.
Yes indeed!
To all you happily married people, thank God you are, because the worst feeling next to loosing a child is to loose the love of your life because she wanted the greener grass on the side of the fence. Then they realize it’s not and comes home like nothing happened. It will tear at your soul and slowly drain everything good about you until you are empty inside. The trauma to your head and heart is like what a soldier gets on the battle field, you will never be the same again. I pray to all the people in love please don’t ever cheat on your partner, leave them first it won’t hurt as bad as cheating. Amen from an empty soul
dear empty soul … fill it up with garden and dogs and fishing… works for me ..
The "other" woman in his relationship also got her broken. But she was the wise one broke off the relationship. She sent him back to his bed with his wife, even tho she loved him.

@@jennief7114 that's what I always think when I hear this song, like its emotional & beautifully composed but its ultimately about cheating 😅
@@skullgirrl757 well it is country music
every time she sings this I feel itl deep in my soul. She sang it with her whole heart. Almost as if she's really experienced it. Regardless of the topic she sings it beautifully. Soulful music!!
A song that became an anthem. A song that evoked so much emotion, so much heartache, so much "real". Jennifer and Christian nailed this one and it will forever stand out as one of the strongest breakup songs. Well done.
He wanted to stop recording, and she was the one that wanted to keep going.
It’s actually not a break up song as such. Do you know what & who this song is rumoured to be about?
When you put this song out, did you know how many people’s hearts you will touch with your words?
No matter how many times I see this it always makes me cry. She just squeezes it right out of my eyes, and I’m a big, ‘ol tough man for heck’s sake!
Lmfao me too and a biker and a hard rock fan. Don't tell my friends.
You guys are awesome for admitting that but how can anyone not love it, I love hard rock but I'll listen to whatever lmao
I like the last third of this song where she's up off her knees and is moving on. so motivational for me. too many times I've had my heart broken to someone that doesn't love me
Ive been through it more tines then I cant count but my fiance I have now is not like this he loves me with everything he has and he does more for me then anyone ive ever been with it took so many years to find him it was love at first sight with us hes the best thing that has ever happened to me cant wait till the day we get married and start a family
This literally breaks my heart every time I watch it! Seeing the beautiful and talented Jennifer Nettles get so emotional touches me greatly! This is a fantastic song! And I didn't even know it was sung from the perspective it is when I first heard it several years ago! I still love this song and I love Sugarland! I hope they come out with some new material together soon!

+Matthew Lemay It's almost like this is personal to her. It's that or either she's a great actress.
+Matthew Lemay she sang it when she was going through a divorce
she does get very emotional. . she can probably truly relate to the song probably touches most people we have all vee. in those shoes once.. once shame on you twice shame on me
+robert hastings She wrote this song when she found out that her husband was cheating, and when she gets emotional its because this song is a true reflection of her own situation. :) but yes a great song, and im pretty sure we all can relate to it in one way or another!
Jen I met you in Sarasota about 5yrs before you hit it, I told you then you were special.. I am glad nothing stopped you.
Most incredible video performance ever on a song. The look and feel of pain in her eyes is so palpable!!!
She puts her whole heart and soul in that song.... Awesome
I still get chills in 2020 everytime I watch how much emotion she let loose for the world to see. That's that real hurt.
After listening to this, I finely watched the video how powerful she is putting her heart into it.
Remember being a kid and my mom listening to this song and her wiping tears while knowing all the lyrics.. 24 now eyes wide open

I couldn't say it any better
It appears I have not yet healed
What if it still breaks you? Your the wife.... years of being together, but in his th heart you are the side peace!

it hurts to see her cry, god i hate it!!!
she cried real tears and they kept filming. makes me cry every time I watch it
feel this with my soul. But i'm grown. I make bad decisions everyday. Still have no regrets. It is what it is. And it was what it was.

"I've given you my best why does she get the best of you" THAT part hits so deep
You could see the angry emotion. She wanted to hit something so bad but she kept her composure.
Perfect example of a truly narcissistic man! All the best from all involved FOR HIM only! You better be happy with the dregs he offers!
@@marymargaretblumhorst5359 wtf are you even talking about 🤣 I'm looking at this from a man's point of view with her lyrics
@@September_2011this is from wiki. Not trying to attack you. I’m just an it is what it is person and this is what her song it about. "Stay" is a ballad of infidelity, taking the perspective of the mistress of a man who is cheating on his wife. It begins with the mistress's insistence that the man stay with her - even if his wife should call and ask where he is - because she (the mistress) is "so tired of being lonely". Although the man tells her that he will leave his wife for her, she refuses to believe him, telling him that "it's too much pain to have to bear / To love a man you have to share".
In the third verse, the mistress then changes her mind; according to Nettles, she (the woman in the song) "has her own sense of redemption and realizes she deserves more than being with someone who will never be fully hers".[3] This change is revealed in the final chorus.
In the song, Nettles' vocals are accompanied by Kristian Bush (Sugarland's other member) on acoustic guitar; unlike most other Sugarland songs, Bush does not sing harmony vocals. The only other instrumentation in the song is an organ, played by Bush's brother Brandon.[4]
@@September_2011 Mandy?! A police officer?! They go to school for criminal psychology. They know how to manipulate people. My mother kicked us out for her married police officer boyfriend. I’m happy your husband is doing good May God continue to keep him straight on a path of sobriety, happiness and May he continue to stay loyal not only to you but his children. I’m sorry for all you went through but the song isn’t meant to be interpreted differently she speak about what the song is meant as. You can’t change what the artist already said it was. It’s her music that she wrote

I survived and married a man who loved just me! Married young, at 16 he was 19, got drafted to Vietnam! Came home never the same! Shared him with his mistress, she had a son 6 weeks before I had our daughter! I did this for 12 years, didn't want my daughter to blame me! I married someone else! 22 years together!
This is why cheating is never the answer! It DESTROYS both women you are involved with, AND yourself too 💯 I loved that she did both perspectives in this song, beautifully written and her voice....that of an ANGEL!!! 🙏🏼❤
Yes it does. 10 years and I am still dealing with it. My heart and soul will never be the same. 33 years of faithful marriage 4 combat tour wounded and she left me and I had to recover on my own. Just a year and a half ago I started feeling a little more like the man I used to be and today I am doing good. But still hurts like hell. But I keep moving forward.
Or both men not just men cheat you know
I remember vividly as a small child, sitting in the car with my stepmother as she bawled to this song on the radio. I didn't fully understand as a kid, I just knew my dad was hurting her and it was a lot for me to grasp at the time. It wasn't until I got older and realized what the song meant that I bawled at the reality of what my father put her thru. While my stepmother has left me with emotional scars, I still cry when I hear this song, for all the pain he caused her all those years...
sorry, sometimes we are so cold to one another
If your stepmother "left you with emotional scars", then that's your father's fault too. It's not a step parents job to take care of a child. She didn't bring you into this world. That's the responsibility of your birth parents and it's on your father for not being around and leaving you with his wife.

She wrote this song literally as a reply to a Reba song. It's not a true story.

I sometimes think it's not someone.but her own a diction. U know Mr Jones.

Tears as real as the personification of the entity that was her first love her world her forever truest form pure.had the world the decency to not force their chains.and conform.there soft death. And warp the young mind

Still loved this song
I'm not one to listen to country, and typically avoid watching music videos to avoid their marring of my interpretation of the songs... but I stumbled across this while seeking for inspiration in my own work, and I'm so glad I did - despite the heartbreak I felt for you and my now-runny nose and tear-stained cheeks. Thank you for being authentic, for being vulnerable, and for bringing the soul back into the artistry of music. The world needs more of the raw, unfiltered human experience, and less of the shallow content that's being shoved down our throats from all directions. The respect and admiration I've gained for you in less than 5 minutes is astounding.

Hi Kat 👋
She's a homewrecker crying about a man who won't leave his wife? This should not be inspiring? ha ha ha ha
Perfectly put!
Beautiful voice, beautiful song, beautiful girl.
One of if not THE most heartfelt performances of any song videos I have ever seen. That was absolutely awesome. A beautiful lady with an incredible voice.
She did this in one take I believe so it was an authentic reaction. So raw and heartfelt.

@@mikelcage6438 yeah man alcohol feels like the ultimate friend to kill solitary in these times but it also do one thing that is slowly destroying from inside(the organs)
"Ive given you my best... why does she get the best of you???" - very powerful
Miki Nunya because she promised herself to him, and him to her, when they married. I love this song, but it's also sad
Miki Nunya indeed
You get to legitimately tell people "Nunya Business" all the time! Sweet.
If you listen carefully to the song, the first part she says "he always goes home", she's the MISTRESS, not the wife, listen carefully. I just heard it and felt so dumb...
yes it is suglarland rocks
This song has always been very touching to me, it's beautiful yet makes me tear up and think about old times. .

This Lady makes me wanna stay
I feel the same way Victoria. I don't know if it's the passion she puts in it or the message it relays, but I always end up in tears and yet can't stop listening to it. Glutton for punishment???
Victory Jackson I do to I'm only 12 but my grandpa just died and my mom is on drugs and I don't live with her ether this song jacks me cry to
It’s a very rough pain loving someone when you know there heart belongs to someone else....
This is so true
Exactly
Yeah
It sure is
This is a very true touching song! 😉😘😘
This was an amazing song when it came out and still is today. So much talent and emotion. If you don’t feel moved by this song check your heartbeat. Sugar land is an amazing group!
Wife of 12 years left me in 2011 & everytime I heard this song it hurt my soul, but years later I'm greater & through it all I stayed strong for our kids whom are grown men now 23 & 20......GOD gives us all tough battles to test our strength.
Yes he does and right now mine are through the roof!
12 years later and this video still gets to me. has to be the best example of somone singing about something they are living through you cant fake that emotion
She said in an interview that it was about her friend that was living as the other woman. Kristian, the guitarist, said he couldn't be in the same room when they were recording this. Every time she would start to cry, he wanted to run to her and hold her.
@@lonnieadams7841I also heard that interview.... they had to clear the studio as it was so heartfelt...
She's an amazing artist to be able to portray such hurt from a friend's perspective
If you have never felt the feelings she is singing about you are lucky, you have won in life.
Right. It's the worst feeling ever
Hello
@@kiwiskinner6731
Dumy
The worst
ain't about feeling it. its about understanding it.
The Tears in her eyes are just heartbreaking. She's so beautiful.
It's so sad that her can do it so good there so good they can do it all right on yall I lost my mom 2 years ago I hurt so much sugar land... from cody Barrera y'all
You can see that her green eyes are cloudy Grey. You guys out there, watch your girlfriend's eye color! If it gets brilliant,... prepare to loose your virtue. If it's leaning toward Grey, get ready to loose your girl.
@@marybentley843 think about it from the other side. I'm pretty sure it wasn't her idea... and if you absolutely had to pick a time to die, ... when would be the good time?
Lost mine in 08. Feelin' Y'all,
Thank God we only have to do it once for each parent !
They had to stop the video so many times because she broke out in tears
@@marybentley843 .
She’s better live believe it or not!!! Saw her in Valdosta Ga many years ago. Zac Brown band was new and opened for her. Omg what a voice! And she’s a tiny little thing!
One of the best videos ever made... that raw emotion just pouring out of her... my God. I can't relate to the song exactly, but it's beautiful and the look on her face in the video just makes me break down every time. I just want to hug her.
ya and i love how the song starts with her begging for him to stay with her then near the end she is telling him to stay with the other woman
tears rolling down my eyes listening, btdt, but them I wonder if she is married, oh my she is sexy.
If she didn't really live this, she should have won an Oscar for best actress, cause the pain looked real.
Haley Rowell That’s the point, genius.
She did live it, and I hate all the dumb ass people that don’t know the fact about this song.
She actually didn't. Don't know where you found that information but, you probably shouldn't call people dumb if you don't know what you are talking about either..
Lucious White I agree...
There's always one smartass I don't care where you go
this song breaks me every time I hear it, I was with a man 10 yrs older than me for 6 1/2 yrs he controlled me totally and the abuse I suffered mentally,physically and even sexually was meant to kill me but I survived he would leave me long enough to go to her bed then come home and beat me but being so young with no one to help I was trapped and in the 80's they didn't have the resources we have today, I got away Thank God remarried to a great man but he suffered a massive stroke then a seizure that nearly took him from me now 3 yrs later we are just friends that live under the same roof he feels less a man due to well he can no longer be a true husband but I will never leave or cheat he saved me when I had no one. He is and always will be my one true love.
Your heart is beautiful...
Love is way more than sex. You are lucky to have eachother.
Hey, hi, I'm from Russia, Moscow, you are a very, very big fellow that told such a story and were not afraid, I hope that you are a very, very beautiful girl, you very, very strong times have experienced such torment and such grief and torment in your of life, well done, you are just an amazing girl, I want everything to be fine, that you smile, and that you no longer allow male bastards to raise your hand against you, I, I don’t want you to cry more, do not cry, let everything will turn out in life for you, I’m a guy, I live in Moscow, I’m 23 years old, I don’t have parents (well, they’re like, but they’re bad, they are traitors, and father and mother), I don’t have a girlfriend, I was once, but she turned out to be much worse than my motherfuckers, the same traitor bitch, after I found out that she had betrayed me, I just picked and hit her, hit him once, packed my things and left, and nothing more connected me with her I just can’t stand the traitors, I despise them, he and they probably think that they are the smartest on earth and that everything is allowed and allowed, I don’t have anyone at all, I alone, alone, survive as I can, I sing songs with country guitar on the streets of Moscow, I don’t have anyone, not a loved one I don’t worry about a person, either friends or a girl, anyone, but I have only me and no one else, and the worst thing is that I’m afraid to be left alone and not to die alone in the hands of a guitar ...
Be happy, I believe that you are a very good person, I don’t know where you live, but I’ll kiss you now, that's all, kissed, God bless you ....
You are a great woman. If you do leave him please be honest. Men can take honestly not games.
Your stronger than you think...
Jennifer I'm having surgery about 10 hours and I'm listening to sugarland's music you guys are great the good work going to try to go to your concert in Wisconsin with Little Big Town thanks John
She is so beautiful and I am still listening too. I'm 61 yrs old, and I will never stop listening. 2024.
Hi
Im in my 20s and still enjoy this song
i’m 18 and i relate to it so much the power music has is forever
From a 65 yr old back at ya 😂
Rite on, 57 here, beautiful woman and song
The first guy, I begged. I cried. I still remember the pain. But no one should should have to beg. Eventually I learned. If I am not good enough, then don't stay. I finally know my worth. Be with me for me. If it is not good enough, why don't you leave? Life has been great since.
her husband went out on her.. that's why she gets so emotional
lher6425 Ive been thru that same shit. I cried and begged him the whole time he was packing. The irony is this year he comes back wanting to work it out. It felt so good to tell him to kiss my behind. Im using my HUSBANDS youtube. So glad I let him walk.
actually no.
Yeah....don't steal other's husbands! Mine was.
Vickie Lane ummm...no...
Other way around.
She really poured her heart into this song until it brought tears to her eyes,he also shed a few
I’m gonna bawl my eyes out when my mom passes because she loves this song. I remember being a kid and my mom and dad would sing together.
I love Sugarland. The voice, the emotions and the way the message is sent from her sad songs, her happy and fun songs. A genius.
Hello Codey how are you doing today
This song hits hard man not gonna lie I cried watching this....anyone else or was it just me?
I'm a guy Alicie & hits me deep in my heart after 20 years of marriage honey & it hurts on my side too its not just a girl thing I promise you that . Hurt does not have any conconce at all I'm afraid .
APARTMENT
I definitely cried cuz I been thru it
I agree with Larry I teared up then smile
Alicia Quillen I was crying. I really feel her pain
I'm not a fan of Sugarland but this girl can sing her ass off. Freakin amazing voice. love her.
I don't know many of there songs but I love this song , so touching , and seeing how emotional she gets when singing this makes me love it even more
+Kim Pate If you have not seen her perform "His Hands" with Brandy Clark you are missing another really GREAT song by her.
+Kim Pate Yes! I love when they put emotions with their words. Singing with blank expressions isn't right.
+Adrian Miller From what I understand, Jennifer is only the second female to write and perform a winning SINGLE OF THE YEAR. She is just amazing.
i wouldn't have left her
This is a great song.
You've a beautiful n' powerful voice n' your performance in this video is incredible, you're a wonderful artist, thank you for this amazing song.
God do not ever watch this when your heartbroken. The pain in her eyes..
I can't believe she still sings through it all.......
Too late I did
Doing it now
that never leave
don't wanna shear us with another I love u to this day but u can't keep me to ur self when I share u why can't I try to find someone u alwAys go back u never stay just stay u took them words just stay
I never ever thought that I would see a singer put as much emotion and a song like Reba McEntire does, this woman has got it!
Hello how are you doing today
This is not Reba. Its Sugarland
@@josiefun56comprehension….
So much respect for raw emotion, she really put her all into this song. I only discovered Sugarland in the last 12 months and so glad I did.
The raw emotion that you talk about is real during this time when this song was being done she was in the middle of going through a nasty divorce with her husband at the time who she had recently found out was cheating on her, hence the divorce, which also helped create this song.
In the last 12 months ?? How big was that rock you were living under..?
@@jeffkubik5452 I knew she had to have experienced it because I've walked in those shoes and totally connected to her emotional performance...💔
'
Because was with a man who was cheating his wife it's real for her she wrote it for him
It hurts when I see a wonderful woman getting hurt. In that song I can tell you got hurt. I am so sorry please stay strong and keep singing your beautiful heart out. God bless you
This perfectly illustrates how hard it is to leave someone who you care for but you know that it's bad for you. Just because it hurts and it upsets you doesn't mean you're weak minded or desperate.
very true well said
my god i can relate soooooo much to what you say!!! i do miss her, but shes no good for me and all that happens is pain and suffering.....I HATE SEEING WOMEN CRY!!!!! it really does break my heart into a million pieces!!!
I wish I left earlier... I'm so much happier now
good call
I Love You Bo
how does the guitarist not cry...I'd be cryin' like baby
I love this song.
william york same , like a baby
I love this woman, A true artist in every since of the word...

Hi
Eight years later, and this still gets to me. Thank you, Jennifer, for making me feel human again.
Odee Dillon THIS SONG GOES OUT TO MY HUSBAND THAT LEFT ME AFTER 18 years that I spent with that sorry sob
+Lona Phillips sorry I'm in the same boat butt it gives us the truth very late its hard to except better for you long run
Odee Dillon thanks
2020 ,❤️❤️
Who still with me with this song !!!!!
This song reminds me of the time back in 2018 when i got cheated on and she walked away from me with my cousin and now i am kinda glad that happened because now i know how to show someone i really love them and that i should't get so much attached to someone like i was with her cause i think that's what cause us to break up in the end
Tugs at everyone's heart strings. For anyone who actually loved anyone fully in your life. I think we all have that "somebody"
I’ve known this song since I was little now I’m 17 years old watching the music video for the first time Nd I never seen so much hurt before

Cheaters dont give a f*** how much you love them, they will always be unfaithful.
Texas Girl That is exactly why I didn’t get evolved with a married man lol we known each other for about 3-4 years an he came out of the blue an asked if I wanted to be in a sexual relationship, for 1 I had a big guess he haven’t been happy for a while in his marriage but that still doesn’t say okay I can go out an cheat on my wife !! An the kicker he has 3 beautiful children witch just pisses me off cheating on a Wife/Husband isn’t right but hell this day in age almost normal !! But to bring kids into it an YOUNG kids I’ll say oh probably under 8 ! My guess is he either doesn’t believe in divorce an he’s 1 of those believers that think they will go to hell if they get divorce lmao I NEVER got that belief it’s NOT okay to divorce but it’s Okay to cheat as long as you go to church on Sunday to say your Sorry to God !!! Such a BS belief in my honest opinion! Or well this could be on the SADDER thing the reason he won’t get divorced an holding onto til the end if he’s NOT a Real Cheater lmao, he’s a Dr an doesn’t want to get divorced cause he knows most likely wife will get HALF !! Witch granted where we live I’m sure he doesn’t make a shit load of money for a Dr cause it’s NOT a big time City an he’s just a Family Dr .. But could be wrong lol God Bless All an God Speed !!
We live... and we learn. Sometimes you have to lose something to know and appreciate what you had. It took me 3 great relationships to finallu figure that out.
Sorry for people like that can someone hit me back
