I would like to start off by saying Happy Canada Day! Today our country turns 144 years old.....or something like that. So anyways, today I found this really awesome song. Ok well I already knew that it existed but I found a really awesome video of it. Now before I give you the link, I'm gonna warn you that it's country....very old country. The video was taken in 1981, and the song became a hit way before that, if I'm right. So the reason that I love this video so much better than all the other videos that were taken to this song is because, it's just so much more special. The singer (the late and great Conway Twitty) is singing this song to the amazing Loretta Lynn. These people are country music ICONS! They basically made country music. They're sooo cute together, I love them. They're voices compliment each other so nicely and although no one's said anything, I'm sure there was something a little more than friendship going on there, even though both of them were married. Before I give you the link I just wanna tell you that the man sitting behind or beside Loretta is NOT her husband, it's Ernest Tubb, not too long before his unfortunate death (he was another country music great.). And you have to watch Conway and Loretta's facial expressions from 1:16 to 1:38 and listen to the lyrics too. It's obvious that they're both remembering something that happened. Also if you listen closely at the end you hear Conway say "I love you Loretta." then they hug and if you listen it sounds as if she says "I love you too baby.". Ok so now you've waited long enough, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ej9Dqhe5p4 . I hope you enjoy this song the way I did. Now if you really really liked it (the way I do) you can go check out Loretta's version, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOQmbBLOs4c&feature=related / . Alright so if you didn't go check out the videos, then your probably like ok well there's nothing for me here. Well probably not because quite honestly, I'm very tired and have to get up at 6:15 tomorrow morning since I have to babysit, which I really don't want to....but anyways, hope you enjoyed the videos and keep checking back here for some new stuff.
