Ronnie and Kenny Rogers are my favorite country singers.Glad I grew up in that era.

Sometimes sad songs are the best. Beautiful and sad.

This is the song played when I first met my husband, still love it and listen to. We've been married for 23 years and have two kids. My dream will be to play some of Ronnie Milsap's song on our 25th.

Ronnie hit #14 in Billboard, 7-10-82. God bless you, dear Dody, for postin' it. Thanx! Hugs to you. Have a blessed weekend!

Not a great country fan, but I bow in awe to this great rendition of a BB tune so many others had already done. Gotta listen to some more Ronnie Milsap one of these days.

have loved this song since I was a little girl. My dad would turn up his stereo in the evenings and I remember this song playing all the time..

im 21 and love older music! so much soul in this song!

One of my all time favorite songs by Ronnie Millsap, so timeless this beautiful love song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ronnie Milsap, a wonderful great singer!

I am 17 and have grown up listening to his music because of my mom but I love his music

One of the very best from Burt Bacharach. First introduced in the early 1960s by Chuck Jackson, I like Milsap even better. This is a timeless number

This is the good classic country that I grew up on! This is what country music is supposed to sound like!!

I saw Ronnie Live at the Ga Mountain Fair. Got free tickets to his concert and didnt want to go. Went and it was the best concert that I ever went to and I went to them all back in the day in Atl. I still have ticket stubs, Van Halen, Aerosmith AC/DC $7.50 and $8.50 tickets!

Tears of Joy of the Memories of This day and This song..My dad (RIP) loved RM's music. Thank You!!

Who could not like this song? What a voice and what a band.

This song has been in my head all week at work

This song is off the chain... love it

heard this song the day my husband passed away....and never was a country fan........now i am.............thanks for making things easier

Billboard's #83 song of '82. Ronnie hit #1 country, and AC, #14 pop, in Billboard. God bless ya, Dody!

One of my all time favorite country songs, instantly connects with my soul!!!!!

Very sweet..and sad song.. beautiful lyrics, very much in love with this song ❣️

Rips straight to my soul like few songs in history can.

I am really into country music, but I love Ronnie Milsap!

I loved this song and all of Ronnie's hits when I was a kid in the 80's. The music is peppy and happy but at closer inspection the lyrics are so sad but I can't help but love this song.

My wild beautiful bird - oh, for the lyrics and beautiful, soulful voice !

Anyone here in June 2024? Such a bitter sweet song 😢😊❤

The strings...precious

Met Ronnie up front and personal a few years back, a friendly old blind man is how I would describe it. God bless him.

Your timing on the lyrics was dang near perfect!!

This song came into my head this morning (Thur, May 17, 2018), ANY DAY NOW. After reading the lyrics of this song I have always loved, I can see how this song could also be seen as a rapture of the church, but from the point of one left behind. He could have gone with his 'wild bird' woman, with 'love' Jesus. Love didn't let him down, it was his own choice. The original intent of the song is beautiful and sad, but still an all time favorite! Love me some Milsap!

Ronny Mislap is an extraordinary singer. He has great wood in his voice.

This country song crossed over to the Top 40 which is where I heard it. I had a girl like this and Milsap just nails my feelings

I have been always loved this song. I was up at 1:00am went to get my tablet that was charging in the kitchen and I thought about this song!!! I went to you tube and found it!!! Still listening to it, it's 2:00am now while I play a game on my tablet!!! Enjoy every one!!!❤️

❤one of my favorite song 🎵 ❤️

My wife was pregnant and I held her on my shoulder in Columbia South Carolina around 1986 or 87 at the state Fair it was great.

This song could never be sung about me and the man I love. I am his for all eternity.

Master songwriting. I've loved this tune since the first time I heard it while getting dressed to go to school in 81. How prophetic that my folks divorced the same year.

Great song and singer.

Excellent music. love the class you have shown. Very rare in 2014

ACC's #53 song of '82. God bless ya, Dody, for postin' it. Have a blessed weekend!

..not a country fan, but an RM devotee. Soul/country/rock/Gospel all in one voice.....wow!

I was a kid when this was popular and this is the country music I remember and loved! I say Artists like Ronnie Milsap and Lee Greenwood paved the way for artists like Jo Dee Messina, Tim McGraw, Garth Brooks and so on, simply because they were not traditional country, this had a pop music swing to it and it was enough to gain popularity on radio and pull those of us who loved pop music in....simply great music!

I luv this, and I luv Ronie Milsap!!!!

I love this song

Great love song that crossed over from Country to the top 40. It's about a man's insecurity.

for the good times ----again and again

I can’t wait till he comes to Tulsa, he was going to do a concert at riverpsirit casino in March 2020 but then you know what happened. I used to listen to prisoner of the highway every morning after my pretrip to hype me up like eye of the tiger to rocky. I had a couple of his albums downloaded in my phone and knew every word and which song was next without looking.

Love me some Ronnie Milsap 💋

In 1992 i was in high school when my boyfriend dedicated this song for me at the time i didn't care now he is marred with 3 kids and am still single. Life ..... this song is big for me.

love this song to pieces any day now Ronnie milsap awesome

Wonderful! Just wonderful!!

I heard Peter and Gordon's version from about 1964 and it remains my favorite. But this is an excellent version by a great artist.

hm haven't heard this song in 25 years lol, just was reminded of it from the credits of Inherent Vice

Classic🤩

I remember when this song first came out. I gave a girl named Amy who I liked a lot in the 7th grade in 1982.

This sounds great on vinyl record

damn cool like this song, with soothing voice

Dody, this was also Billboard's #83 pop song of the '82 survey year. God bless you, for postin' it. Have a blessed week!

love singing along to this

One of my all-time favorites. Chuck Jackson version is also good.

Sad beautiful song😢

The best song Ronnie has ever recorded. I like singing "I know I shouldn't want to keep you..." part, Lol

One of the BEST !

pretty sound,i like it.thanks

Great song and nice job with the lyrics...

one of his best songs!

At first I thought that it was James Taylor singing this great song because Ronnie Milsap sound so much like him.

wish I had his voice and talent.

Pre-1973; his 1st country album (2nd overall, for some odd reason) was "Where My Heart is." To funkifizin: I'd recommend any CD w/ "Total Disaster," "Kentucky Woman" (no, that's not a country CD, but a batch of recordings from Scepter Records), "A Rose by Any Other Name," his self-titled debut reissue (rainbow-colored), "Just for a Thrill" (don't know your tastes; it's a jazz album), and any RM album "Inside" to "True Believer" (excep STHH, though I really like it). The icing? "Greatest Hits!"

Masterpiece

Ronnie does a great job on this song. Check out the Elvis version too. Thanks for postin'.

Yep**"****

In memory of Tabatha Steele...R.I.P Darling

Awesome song.ttue story.

Brings back memories March 04 😭😢😢😢 a very sad day 😢😢✈️✈️

❤❤❤❤

Beginning sounds like "No Gettin' Over Me." xD

i love these old country classics

In 1968 I was at a concert by the Supremes in Indianapolis, and I believe Chuck Jackson opened for them with this song. Am I imagining this? Anyway ... Ronnie Milsap is great on this, but so is Chuck Jackson.

Lots of Fairlight sounds in this song.

Love these songd

Is it wrong that I'm black and love me some Milsap?

😢👍

first heard this song in 1983 coming home from Germany,hoping I had'nt lost my wife

I'm black too and I love him cowboy boots and hat

You can thank Burt Bacharach for that, the master maestro...

Amazing how Burt Bacharach pops up in the most unexpected places!

❤💛❤💙💜💚❤

I sure do. My face is on that, too.

2:50, Sadie and Jesishlian Garcia is Live

nice versiin but i prefer the elvus versiion ..its got a nicer mood to it and of course elvis voice is amazing but i hink thus us a brilliant song and milsap was an amazing singer

This was my show

Bill Hilliard lyricist to this Burt song

My mum said when she dies she needs this played and I cont stop crying

It would be funny if this was the song the bride and groom danced to at their wedding.

this is what country music is. we have today taylor oohh whats her last name...😎 swift? yeah thats it

Paul Carrack has also done a fantastic version of this Bacharach song. Paul's voice is just as stunning as Ronnie's. Hard for me to decide which version I prefer, I don't like the original version by Chuck Johnstone,

twirls and whirls any day now

Wow! If a psychic medium could do that I cannot imagine what a psychic large could do.PEACE!

hey debell do you love country
