That’s awesome

bs

You are right on, jr. I had to look at the date on it before placing it in my "today's country" rather than the classics. One day...classic?

Not bs I used to live in jasper Tx. He lived in a big mansion right up behind a little country store on the outskirts of jasper!!!!

Amen to that! And, next time you chat with your cousin--- let him know a HUGE fan of his from Indiana, thinks this song is one of THE VERY BEST LOVE SONGS in the 90s, if not, maybe forever. Idk if he wrote? So whoever it was, came up with some very thoughtful AND very thought-provoking lyrics, then add Mark's deep, sexy voice, just poured in all his emotion, which he did quite well,, and you can't help but pick up thru his voice.... otherwise, song would've not climbed the charts as it did, and it wouldn't have the staying power it does if for not being such the amazing song it was, it still is, performed by the best, amazing singer it obviously meant to be sang by. I've loved this song since it was released, but never knew how much it would come to mean in my own life & my own marriage......... While my husband & I did not follow Mark's instructions, we did get divorced. And our only biological child was very upset, even at 15yrs old. Had no idea it would hurt him so deeply. But at least he got to see his parents come back together, fall back in love and at our ceremony, he was my husband's best man. He couldn't have been happier. Im SO thankful for all of it because no one could see the tragedy coming our way. 3yrs after we were remarried, our son passed away. I cannot tell you, if you've never lost a child, you can never understand. But I pray no one reading this EVER goes thru what we did. He was missing for 112 days, approx 4 n half months then found deceased. We were politely by funeral home, as polite as you can say to two grief stricken parents, "his remains are unviewable". Those were NOT REMAINS, THAT WAS MY CHILD. I wanted desperately to kiss him goodbye--- instead we had to say our goodbyes thru a body bag he was in, then the "cremation"" box. It mightve been fact but there was nothing polite about it. Guess they did the best could. No one, at all, would let us see him, as we overhead some funeral directors themselves that worked on his body were even traumatized. So I suppose we made the right decision by not demanding and left our memory of him as he was-- gorgeous blue eyes, strawberry blonde hair, and the brightest snile. Its been 8yrs this Aug, and we still have days Its pure hell and feels like your heart is being ripped out. It NEVER goes away.. whoever quoted "Time Heals All Wounds" I can guarantee has never lost a child. But I'm glad He did ... we would've ever gotten thru his loss without each other. Leaning on God, leaning on each other, and watching the biggest blessing of all, our 8month old grandson. He is the highlight & joy in our lives. He's 8yrs old now and is his Daddys twin! It's heartbreaking he didnt get the chance to know what a wonderful young man he was.... we can only share memories, show him pictures and constantly remind him how very much his daddy lovecd & adored. So even still, we are blessed. If we didn't have this guy to help hear our hearts, I'm not sure what would've happenedto us.. Anyway, Good Grief SORRY for such a long comment. Did not mean to get THIS freaking carrued away! But this love song STILL reminds me of us- because we'll NEVER use that word ever ever again. If anyone got all the way thru this, God Bless You! Bc I know it's not an interesting story at all. Sometimes a song will just take me back to simpler days and I remember my boys being young, FULL of energy, and always happy. Those were the days God Bless Y'all! Much Love & Blessings from Your Indiana fans ❤🤍💙💯

Yeah...I just heard the news..So I immediately looked up his greatest hits

The first country song when I realized I could be a country music fan in my senior year of high school.

They play this on prime country sirus xm and they talk about people saying this sounds like pop, and I was thinking to myself they should be glad that they haven't heard today's country if they think this is pop

Yes. Ine of my favorites.

This is my favorite song from Mark Chestnutt

This song is so sad.....the melody and all...yes.im a fan of his music now..beautiful voice

It wasn't nothing special about the 90s

Same 😭

Hell no they don't. I just laugh at kids these days listening to Luke Bryan and all this new shit. Its a crying shame, thank god I got to grow up in the 80's and 90's

btownmxer You know, in the 80's and 90's they were saying the same thing about the 60's and 70's?

You are probably right bud lol

I grew up in the late 90s , early 00s. I really hate how country music is going to "pop" style. It's all about the beat of the music and not the voice.

***** I grew up on 80s and 90s country. But I was also exposed to country from the 60s and 70s. I listen to Alan Jackson and Mark Chesnutt as much as I listen to George Jones and Waylon Jennings. Country has constantly evolved, but it always had a good story to tell. Happy or sad, it was music for all occasions. Now it's all about girls in short shorts, tailgates, and dirt roads. That had been the stereotype of country music for years, even though it was much more than that. However, it's become so cliched today that it's practically a parody of itself. And then there's Taylor Swift, who only sang about haters and ex-boyfriends before going pop and singing about the same things. Ugh. So yeah, I totally get why so many people think country sucks today. It started going downhill as the 90s came to a close, and it continues to get progressively worse.

One of the best lines in a country music song. I remember hearing this song when I was a kid and that line has always stuck with me. It wasn't until my nieces were born, and my fiancé came into my life that I understood just how true those words are. I make sure to let them know everyday just how much I love them.

So very true

Amen. Please tell someone how much you love them every day, before it's too late. As Adam Sandler says in "Click", family comes first...

The greatest line in a country song.

So very true.

+Jessica Harvell Definitely straight from the heart.

+Jessica Harvell i know im 15 and i only like the old country that all i listen to!

+Jessica Harvell Today's country sounds like rock. If I wanted to listen to rock I would. Love the old stuff. You could actually hear the lyrics to the songs. Now days you can't hear the words for the loud music.

+Jessica Harvell Same here!

+Jessica Harvell I miss 90s country too!

yes it was then!

Hats off

With the country rap we have today. Why is this song never played on the radio? Now this is country.

@@jaysmith179I just came here after hearing it on the radio! Classic Country 106.7 WNKR

Hey, James. I really liked reading your comment toward Mark. I had just heard Blame It On Texas while shopping in Tractor Supply telling myself how familiar that voice is when it dawned on me, "OMGosh, that's my cousin". I have always admired his voice since childhood before he started a career in music. I miss hearing Mark sing.

My sentiments, exactly. I had taken a girl on a date, and she was killed on her way home the next morning.

@@BittersweetDuality that station used to be so good! 2000’s country is now classic country. 😢

It’s been 6 years sense you said this

Amen

🎉🎉

I refuse to watch and listen to today's country music because it sounds like heavy metal pop-like country music.

You got that right j.j.

That’s why I do not watch the CMA’s anymore

All country music awards have been a bad joke for about the last 15 -20 years.

So true 😢

So sorry for your loss

I still miss him so much.😥😥😥😥😥😥😥.

Jessica Luna very sad you lost your husband

He’s from Beaumont Tx 😊

He's not from Oklahoma.

Don't matter where he's from, this is real country, not like the pop with a twang like today

Mark is one of the many Texas country singers that hit the airwaves in the 90's.

the problem is artists are basically afraid to come out with real country sounding music, because they know nashville wont have their back

real country not like today

+Brittany B not on the country station I listen to WVSB 104.5 Romney, WV. Nothing but beautiful classic country music!

Yup and water under the bridge.

Hello Michele 👋 Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will make you smile.

so True

Very correct.

to prove this one has to hear Dan Seals country version of ' I'd Really Love To See You Tonight'

Chucky

70's had some great music but a lot of the songs get tossed around and have been around since the 50's. I'd would almost prefer they're hanging me tonight by Marty Robbins or Eddie Rabbits someone could lose a heart tonight, then 80's and 90's country but I was born in 80 so thats all old and the really old is new.. but in the end its all of a matter of opinion and it dont matter when the song comes out there is good music no matter where you look and also music that is no good.

It's a beautiful song and the music gives memories.

Hello ✋ Jessica

Peggy Bagley so true !!

Sure can

It hurts and that no lie about love

hurts so good

A-men!!!

Love this song

I know your comment is from 6 years ago, but I agree with you. It is hauntingly beautiful. I can't listen to it without crying. Just 22 days ago I almost lost the best thing I ever had. We are still together thank God. But this song says it all. Neither of us would say it was over. We talked it out and we realized just how much we truly loved each other.

Hello Teresa

How are you doing?

How are you doing today

You 100% right Baby Girl We can't we wont and for sure as the sky is blue there will never be another for me and you
