This show was the first time I ever heard this great song. Still my favorite version. From 1986.

My wife died today. This song is the perfect expression of how I feel right now. It's so perfect I even have mobility issues and can't stand for very long ("I can hardly stand"). I MISS YOU PAULA!!! IF I COULD ONLY FLY!!!

My husband passed away 2 weeks ago. We went to several Merle concerts. I heart aches. We sent balloons up in the air after the funeral. I asked the kids to put on Merle’s silver wings. I wish I had asked for this one. Sorry for your loss.

Blaze Foley sang this song at my dad's memorial in 1984 . He loved and thought that my dad walked on water. He barely made it through the song. Rest in peace Blaze. And rest in peace to my father Clyde Buchanan. Writer of Austin Pickers.

Things got so bad that for the past few years all my music comes from KZfaq channels, mostly people in living rooms, bedrooms, and on porches. Even dropped my Serius/XM subscription.

Dear everyone- Merle didn’t give a direct shout out to Blaze, but by making a perfect version of this song, he made some folks like me look it up. Now I , Sinatra fan, am also a fan of Merle and Blaze. When you have talent like these three gentlemen, a brick wall can’t keep you from busting trough.

I heard Merle sing this song at the Bonnaroo music festival a couple of years ago. EVERYBODY cried, cynical, ironic young people, women, children, old men. This is the greatest vocalist of our generation singing a great, great song.
