Gary Morris belongs in the Hall of Fame!! Without question!! God given voice he has it ALL!! Beautiful voice!! Well done , amazing song!! ............🙏♾️♾️♾️🙏

this is the first version of this song i ever heard. morris knocks all the others out of the park. beautiful.

GARY, you can make a grown cry and that takes more than ppl truly know!! Kudos to your beautiful voice!!!

He’s simply the best . Completely irresistible.

I learned Gary's version so many years ago... it's always been the best, and in my humble opinion ... the most heartfelt

I had heard this song when I was a young person, and listening to it again now for the first time since then, I never realized how truly good Gary Morris could sing. Wow...

What a powerful voice, he shouldn't be forgotten!

At a stop sign in a woodsy area of Florida in the late 90's, Gary Morris was singing this song. My husband of 41 years said, "This is the way I've always felt about you, Baby." I started crying and said, "Dale, that is exactly the way I've always felt about you." It was 5 minutes before I could drive again; I had to wait out the emotions. This became "Our Song" that day. RIP, my dear husband, and know that you still are and always will be The Wind Beneath My Wings. Thank you, Gary Morris!

Gary does the most soulful rendition here. This song has been covered by lots of great singers but Gary owns it.

Gary Morris's version gets me to my core. This is my statement to my inner child, My child, within. Who ever sings it....the message is true to my inner child.

I knew Gary back during his Denver days. I traveled to see him sing in Forth Worth at Billy Bob's and to NYC to see him perform at the Lone Star Café. He is so amazing! And a really great guy. Glad to catch up with his career!

This song is so amazingly beautiful.. makes me cry with it's deep meaning, such a dedicated and divine love.

One of my favorite songs Wind Beneath My Wings.

I first heard this on the Young and the Restless back in the Luke and Laura days .... in other words, I have loved this song for many years! So beautiful .....

I met Gary in Los Angeles early 80's. Hi Gary.What a great voice. Trained in Opera no question. I first saw him opening up for a young upcoming George Strait at the Lakeside Rodeo Arena in Lakeside Ca (San Diego). Gary I believe is from San Antonio. George is from my home town, Pearsall Texas. Anyway, in Los Angeles, at that 3 day concert, it was, well. something to remember. Gary Morris, Exile, Forester Sister, Freddy Fender, Gaitan Brothers, Dwight Yokam, Randy Travis, many more. Alabama, who refused the invite, saw, the 100 thousand people, flew in and tried to purchase, well this is where leave. Anyway. Wherever you are, God bless you. I'll take you vocally you Gary. Your good. God Bless You.

i received an email from KZfaq just now on my post I made 9 months ago with responses. Thank you, KZfaq for bringing this back to me. This song by Gary Morris is so special to me.

Love his voice. He can sing anything and there are not may out there that can.

Of all the many times on youtube where Gary Morris performs this, it is this performance which tops every performer and even himself. Mr. Morris, "You nailed it." LoL. Thank you. My heart is sitting on a shelf. :) ~ L

Never heard this version really like it

beautiful..I have always loved this song and Gary is the one who does it best....thank u for posting.

I'm so used to Bette Midler's version...and i'm simply stunned! This is my new favorite rendition of this song!! :-)

I love this version. It is more heartfelt.

I just came trying to see if this was the guy from my les mis cast album and it is lol

To All My Friends in the World...You are the ( Wind Beneath My Wings!

Beautiful........

Yhis man was fantastic

i love Gary morris song: second hand heart

Best "Jean Valjean" thus far in my opinion. Amazing.

I was on an USA Trip from Switzerland when I heard that Gary is playing in New York in the Les Miserables. So we changed out plans and flew from LA to NYC to see him. Great. I have seen him perform in Nashville a few times before that - and I always liked him. Does anyone know what he is doing NOW?

Heard this version on the radio. I didn't know who sang it. This doesn't even sound like a country song. It's a pop ballad.

I love bette midler but this is the best version, i don't even know this guy but he should have all the credit.

you're the absolute best. see you in arlington soon

When singers with great voices sing one of their most popular songs live too many sing in a style that only vaguely resembles the recorded version it makes me wonder what goes through their head. Dragging out some words and even speaking instead of singing in places.

Gary sings this song with so much soul and heartfelt emotion!! This has always been my favorite version! Bette Midler ruined this song!

I liked the Gary Morris version better than bette midler.

He actually hates Bette's version.

Gary's version is way better he could sing the dictionary and make it a top 5 hit

Roger Whittaker recorded it first.

The Gary Morris version is better than the Bette Midler version.....

Midler's version is overrated. This one is best.

Okay. So he has a lovely voice, there’s no denying that. But incredible vocal range? No. Average really, at best. Truthfully Bette Midler’s rendition of this song is effortlessly emotive. She keeps it simple and yet still kills it with emotional delivery, while not becoming overly vocally stylistic. This was over-sung and did nothing for me, unfortunately. Original or not. This is not the superior version.
