I can't believe a hundred seventy people would say they didn't like this this is some of the greatest country music there ever was I know Jimmy Fortune came in after the original gentleman passed away but you got to give him credit he's got a voice like no other in The Statler Brothers I'll tell you what can bring a tear to your eye when they sing because they bring their heart and soul to their music God bless Statler Brothers and may God bless him with long lives

R.I.P. Harold Reid best bass singer ever. The Statlers will always be my all time favorite group

This makes me miss my mom and dad. This is what country music is about. Their harmony is amazing!!

Rest In Peace, Harold Reid. You're now singing bass in Heaven's Choir. May the blessings & comfort of God attend the Reid family during their time of sadnesss.

song written for my wife elizabeh passed away in 2015 thanks statler brors

I love this song I could listen to it all day

Best country and true country group. They were great.

Just once in a lifetime can we enjoy such talent. Thanks guys.

The good old Statler Brothers, very healing ,,we need more groups like the Statlers To day

Their music is sunshine on the most dismal days. Rest in peace Harold Reid!

The Statlers and the Oak Ridge Boys..... the greatest voices in the history of Country and Gospel Music...... EVER!!!!

Jimmy Fortune has a terrific voice to fit into this group

We will miss Harold terribly and that wonderful bass voice and witty sense of humor

RIP Harold. The Lord missed that voice and called it back home.

The Greatest Country group of all time, their wonderful voices and exquisite harmonies send shivers all over me and the goose bumps start just thinking of their beautiful songs. I live in England and never had the opportunity to see them on stage. Have all of the UK released albums and listen tom them constantly. Miss them very much, Thank you all for the wonderful times you have given my late wife and myself.

The biggest mistake in Ken Burns documentary was the way he ignored the Statler Brotherss.

I miss you so much, my little sister, Liz.😢

The statler. Singers were the best. Love this song

Rip Harold Reid . Thanks for the great music . I remember your voice when I was a child .

best group in country music

2/13/1984 I got news my Grandmother that helped raise me passed away. Her name was Elizabeth “Lizzie”. Months later I had my car radio on and about to drive out of the parking lot when this song came on. I had to stay in the parking area for several minutes until the tears stopped.

My dad's favorite song by his favorite group. 2022 and still listening

Our Dad passed in September 2015. He was my longest life-friend. I've been missing him (and our Mom/2008) very much through this intense time of transition after being his primary care giver since 2008. On January 17, 2016 while traveling along on my way home from a friend's funeral, I was deeply missing Dad's company and conversation on our many drives together. That's when I decided to treat myself to a 'comfort' excursion and pulled off my travel to a little country store browsing and dinner. I'd never heard this song before until it played over the speakers while browsing that little store. Of course, I started crying - in gratitude. My name is Elizabeth... and I know with all my being, this was from Dad and Mom (she loved and used to play traditional country songs). Somehow, these moments just work like that and, personally, I believe in something greater than ourselves that creates these special moments for us. Dad used to email electronic greeting cards all the time with added notes of love and gratitude. I got the distinct feeling, he found a different way to get the message across. Good one, Dad, as usual. Love you both, always.

Jimmy’s voice! OMG SUCH TALENT!

Rest In Peace, Mr. Harold. God bless all of them. They were THE BEST! 😘🙏🏼💜Prayers for Harold’s family as well as the remaining brothers. 😢🙏🏼💜🌼🌷

The line "..don't know if I can ever live my life without you" gets me every time. I think of my son, gone 28 years. I live on without him, but I miss him every day of my life.

Thank you guy's so much!! Some time when I feel so bad feeling sorry for myself & my many friends that's not with us anymore, I play this song & feel better, please be good to your friends because one day they will be gone!! May God Bless All !!!!!!

Jimmy added so much to this group OF GREAT TALENT BLESS THEM ALL!!

a true classic country group of singers

100% Beautiful!!!

The melody and harmony the Statler's do with this song is just beautiful.

My youngest sister passed away in July of last year. Her name is Mary Elizabeth. I heard the Statler Brothers song "oh Elizabeth" My heart sank. It was so hard to listen to. Now a year later I think it is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever Heard. Thank you Statler Brothers.

I visited Dollywood in 2008 and the lead singer here was there and sang this song and I sang it to my wife. A awesome song.

I saw the Statler Brothers in Denver shortly after this song came out. It always brings a tear. I think it’s one of their all time best songs!

That Jimmy sure could sing! Great song. Very very nice.

RIP Harold Reid.This group was unequaled in sound and talent.

One of the best songs they recorded and videoed.

Man oh man I wish these guys were still around.

The Statler Brothers are from my home town. We're so proud of all of their accomplishments. They're all so very friendly with all of us. For 25 yrs. they performed at our July 4th celebration. Big attendence from around the world.

AT 84 I ADMIRE & STILL LISTEN & SING ALONG WITH ALL FIVE OF THE BROS....RIP LEW & HAROLD

First time I've ever heard my full name Elizabeth in a song. Beautiful.

Fun Fact: the song was written about Elizabeth Taylor by Jimmy Fortune and when Elizabeth Taylor learned the song was written about her, she was so moved by it that she actually had the guys perform the song for her at her 52nd birthday in 1984.

This song makes my heart cry as it reminds me of my dear dead husband very sad lovely song TOUCHES my heart thanks Linda😢😂😊

I listen to The Statler Brothers everyday I remember listen to them in my big rig. Elizabeth was one of my favorite songs.. but one of many

Just "down the road" in our Shenandoah Valley in Staunton was arguably the best 4 part harmony ever......The Statler's. Sure miss them!

I grew up listening to the Statler Brothers. This song makes me think of my Mommy. This was one song she really liked.❤

My Mother was the Statler Brothers "biggest" fan. Even though Harold once told her "We have fans lots bigger than you!" Now my 3 year old granddaughter, Elizabeth, thinks this song is just for her. She will also be a Statler fan.

My daughter’s middle name is Elizabeth because of this song. I was 5 months pregnant. Oh Elizabeth I long to see your pretty face. . .That-was 36 yrs ago! I was on a long road trip & this was the #1 song - played over& over & over & ....!

Lucky enough to have seen them 30 years ago. Harold was the best, the silliest and just the nicest person. RIP big guy.

My mother's favorite song. Sure do miss these guys.

My dear wife Elizabeth died at the age of 44. She was the mother ochf my 2 kids. I miss her so much.

Listening to them sing one song is like eating one Lays Potato chip!!! You can't listen to just one!!!!!

I saw the Statler's in concert four times and I have to say they were the best. I love everything they sang and Elizabeth is one of my favorites.

My dad loved this song so I'm playing it for him rip dad

Coming from an Elizabeth, these fine gentlemen display the upmost class and timeless beauty of music.

RIP, Harold, thanks for the songs ♡♡♡

One of the best groups ever!

I can listen to them over and over. And I do.

I have loved these boys since first time I ever heard them!...

Harold Reid, who sang bass for the Grammy-winning country group the Statler Brothers, died on Friday, April 24th, 2002 after a long battle with kidney failure. He was 80 years old... Between 1965 and 1990 the Staunton, Virginia group had sixty six records on the Billboard Country charts, thirty three made the Top 10 with four reaching #1, "Do You Know You Are My Sunshine" for two weeks in May 1978, "Elizabeth" for one week in March for 1984, "My Only Love" for one week in March of 1984, and "Too Much On My Heart" for one week in November of 1985... Founding member Lewis Calvin DeWitt passed away at the young age of 52 on August 15th, 1990 {Crohn's disease}... May both Mr. Reid and Mr. DeWitt R.I.P. * They just missing having three more #1 records when their "Flowers On The Wall" for four weeks in 1966, "Do You Remember These" for four weeks in 1972, and "Oh Baby Mine (I Get So Lonely)" for one week in 1983, all peaked at #2...

I've always felt that Jimmy Fortune is the best tenor in country music. Perfect vocals here.

I attended a concert they did in Waco, Texas. When they sang More Than A Name On a Wall I cried for all of my brothers and sisters who's names carved on the wall. US Navy 1966-70.

We need more music like this. It makes you feel good, like singing along. I’m sure that the lack of music that required talent and that make you tap you feet, along with a belief in God, love of country and a solid 2 parent family is the cause of our decline.

The Elizabeth in my life was my Grandmother too, a feisty Scot born in Motherwell, near Glasgow. She was small but mighty and took me through life as if I were her own. I miss her every day, and she has been gone these 28 years. They were true pioneers, my Nan and Gramps, never spent a nickle on themselves but lived for their only son, my Dad who died in 2009. Needless to say, this was one of his all time favorites as well as mine!

There will never be a group that sings quite like the Statler Brothers, Miss their music on country radio

Oh I remember when this song came out, I had to go to the hospital for surgery, so I brought along my Sony tape player and played the heck out of this song!!

Rest in Peace Mr Harold Reid.

Love the Statlers, and Jimmy Fortunes voice just send shivers down my spine!! Could listen to him for hours!

RIP, Harold. Thank you for the wonderful music and comedy over the years. We'll never forget you.

mom's favorite group. I cut my teeth on the Statler's music. Since tomorrow is Mother's Day and her birthday is Tuesday, this is gonna be rough. Rest is peace, mom. May I see you again in Heaven

Now that was Great Music!! Really Sung from Thy Hearts 💕🔥♥️❤️as only The Statler Brothers could!!

My dad was on the road a lot when I was little. When he would get home I'd tell him to play my song( its my name) and he would play it and let me stand on his feet and dance with me. I love u daddy

The Statlers will forever be one of my favorite groups.

These were the days when music was still good, musicians still had talent and men were still gentlemen.

Jimmy and that perfect tone.......

I gave my daughter this name as her middle name because of this song!

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE VOICE JIMMY FORTUNE HAS,....I WISH THAT THE STATLER BROTHERS WERE STILL PERFORMING,....I NEVER GOT TO SEE THEM PERFORM, BUT, I SURE ENJOY THEIR MUSIC, AND, THEIR BEAUTIFUL HARMONIZING.

For my sister "Elizabeth", RIP. Also to Harold RIP I have known you since day one.

Inspired by, and sung for the late, great Elizabeth Taylor. I understand this song had her in tears. We miss you, Miss Taylor!

Just awesome. Runs wonderful chills on me. just a beautiful song and sung to perfection. Thank you.

Sure miss Harold. One of the purest bass voices in country music. I know it was time for the Statlers to retire but I love their music.

I named my youngest after this song . Rip Harold Reid prayers for the family. God bless

We were lucky enough to see the Statlers over the years . We were saddened when Lew left due to health. Jimmy proved a wonderful replacement. I cried through their final show in Roanoke. They were just so genuine , they are missed. Harold's passing this year was so sad in a year that was bleak.

The guys make every song sound beautiful. Love the Statlers!!! RIP Harold Reid

My Mom loves the Statler Brothers. 💞

This truly is a great song but most of their best stuff never got on the radio.

All I can say is amazing harmony

When Country Music was really Country Music.

The story goes that The Statlers were watching a movie on their bus. Elizabeth Taylor happened to be one of the stars of the movie. Jimmy got the idea for the song from this and quickly wrote it. They later got to sing the song to Ms. Taylor while she was on a movie set..

I grew up next door to my Grandmother, named Elizabeth. We were very close. This song first came out a couple of months after she passed. Thirty-five years later, I still cry when I hear this song!

One of my favorite songs by the Statler Brothers! Jimmy Fortune is great!!!!

There is not a better group of singers anywhere!!! To say that the Statler Brothers is the best is truly an understatement!! LOVE THEM and always will. Their songs bring comfort, joy and happiness to my soul. God bless them forever and so thankful to be able to hear their wonderful music.

This is one of the great groups I grew up listening to unfortunately they're not together anymore they've retired but Jimmy Fortune had a voice that no other had and all their music whether it would be country or gospel they put their hearts and souls into it God Bless The Statler Brothers and Long Live their music like I said great Country Legends

What a voice JIMMY adds to the group they have a fantastic blend with them all

I sure miss them on TV. :-)

Love these guys since the first time I heard them sing together. They are the best singers I have ever heard.

This song is so beautiful I almost wish my name was Elizabeth.!

If I could sing like this people would have to put a sock in my mouth to get me to be quiet ....beautiful voices

One of the best songs from the 1980s

one of my all time favorite song, beautiful voice of Jimmy Fortune...
