I'm No Stranger to the Rain - Keith Whitley. + Informações

If I were alone in the desert Without a drink of water around With my knees and hands in that white scorching sand With the hot Sahara, sun beating down If I could be granted my wishes Anything I want would come true I know that it might sound funny But here's what I want you to do (Chorus) Tell Lorie I love her Tell Lorie I need her Tell her everything would be ok if I could just see her Tell Lorie I love her Tell Lorie I need her And If I leave this old world tell her she's the only girl for me If I were a drift on the ocean A vessel with no sails or steam Floating aimlessly on the endless sea Hopelessly lost it would seem If all of the fish in the water Could echo my last dying plea I know you might not understand it But here's what I want it to be Tell Lorie I love her Tell Lorie I need her Tell her everything would be ok if I could just see her Tell Lorie I love her Tell Lorie I need her And if I leave this old world tell her she's the only girl for me And if I leave this old world tell her she's the only girl for me. + Informações

Those of you who have, thank you so much for the heartfelt comments and sharing with us what Keith meant to you. I really feel that 2009 is going to be Keith's year. I just know he's going to find his home either in Nashville or in Renfro Valley (not necessarily in that order). Keith Whitley is not dead, he lives on in us, and we are his voice now. He left the legacy, and we created the legend. Keith debuts "Don't Close Your Eyes" on stage at the Opry. He is introduced to the audience by the legendary Grandpa Jones. My eternal gratitude to Troy (waylonhoss), one of my all-time favorite people, for setting me up with the clip... almost 17 years ago. To those of you who got here from the link on wsmonline.com, wsmonline.com , welcome! It's an honor to have you!. + Informações

Lyrics: I know you loved him A long time ago Even now in my arms You still want him I know But darling this time Let your memories die When you hold me tonight Don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Let it be me Don't pretend it's him In some fantasy Darling just once Let yesterday go You'll find more love Than you've ever known Just hold me tight When you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Maybe I've been a fool Holding on all this time Lyin' here in your arms Knowing he's in your mind But I keep hoping some day That you'll see the light Let it be me tonight Don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Let it be me Don't pretend it's him In some fantasy Darling just once Let yesterday go You'll find more love Than you've ever known Just hold me tight When you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Let it be me Don't pretend it's him In some fantasy Darling just once Let yesterday go You'll find more love Than you've ever known Just hold me tight When you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Just hold me tight When you love me tonight And don't close your eyes. + Informações

"'Til A Tear Becomes A Rose" first made its digital debut on Keith's "Greatest Hits" CD. The song was a 1987 demo written by the husband/wife team of Bill & Sharon Rice, and originally featured harmony vocals by Keith's childhood friend Ricky Skaggs. Lorrie Morgan, with creative control on this project and license to Whitley's namesake, recorded her voice alongside Keith's, and released it as a single, which rose to #13 and won them 1991's CMA award for Best Vocal Collaboration. This is the version which does not feature Lorrie's voice and also features a spoken interlude by Keith on the second verse. I originally posted this video on my original account (jkwfaninwv70), but this time I posted it with improved audio.. + Informações

**CLICK ON "MORE INFO" FOR LINK FOR MP3 DOWNLOAD!!!** If you use profanity in your comments, your comment will be removed. Don't show your stupidity by using it. In light of a recent comment left by a viewer on May 3, 2009, viewers should be aware that there is a lot of erroneous information about Keith's bio, most notably the bio on CMT.com, which is chock full of glaring errors. Keith's given name at birth was JACKIE Keith Whitley, not Jesse Keith Whitley. Jesse Keith Whitley is the biological son of Jackie Keith Whitley and Loretta Lynn "Lorrie" Morgan, born in 1987. Jackie Keith Whitley was born in Kings Daughters Hospital in Ashland, KY on July 1, 1954, the son of the late Elmer Jackson Whitley and Nannie Faye Ferguson Whitley. Back when Keith was lead singer for JD Crowe and the New South in the late 1970's and early 1980's, he found he had lost his birth certificate, and he needed one for his passport. So when he received his new one from Frankfort, it came back with the wrong birth date, July 1, 1955. All this information was given to me by his mother during a phone conversation I had with her in 1991. I'm sure Lorrie knew his real birthdate, but why she insisted on putting the wrong one on his tombstone no one seems to know. If you need more proof, I have a digital copy of his original birth announcement provided to me by the Whitley family with his birth date, place of birth, and birth weight. If you need a copy of this, send me a message. This Paul Overstreet .... + Informações

This is a rare demo of a song that Keith co-wrote that never made it on to any of his RCA-era albums. Suzy Bogguss had a hit with her version of the song which was a duet with Lee Greenwood. That version appears here on YouTube with video from the soap "General Hospital." Many thanks to my YouTube friend Brian (BengalsRedsfan4life) for lighting a fire under me and for his continued support.. + Informações

Keith Whitley - Homecoming `63 (WITH LYRICS), From The Album LA To Miami 1985 Homecoming '63 I was so proud you went with me Everyone turned their head when we walked in They said look at that perfect pair as you blushed from all their stares and my chest swelled up with pride grinning from ear to ear inside an hour full of dance and fun an hour later and I gunned my '57 off to heaven back seat lovin' girl you were somethin' CHORUS Home coming '63 You went home with the love you gave to me You turned me on to extasy Homecoming '63 What a night that was for us I remember plain as day the touch I felt when I felt your love melt in my arms and that old and pleated back seat bed I pleaded with you and instead of the usual no you said yes you let go repeat chorus. + Informações

I spent weeks looking for this song. I could not find it on any website, no lyrics or anything, I found it acknowledged only once. It took me 8 tries on limewire to finally find a copy of it. I have no idea why but this is by far the rarest song I have ever found. I hope putting it up here will cause a comeback for keith whitleys greatest and most unrecognized hit. If anyone can figure out the chord prog in this song let me know. Thanks EDIT: Okay, apparently it was easy for everyone else to find, just not me. And yes, Charlotte is a town in NC, but not just any town, it is the biggest city in North Carolina and the biggest between Atlanta and Texas. TRIVIA: All of these pictures of North Carolina are of a beach resort called "Emerald Isle," and at 0:51, that bench where the guy is standing is the exact location I first heard this song.. + Informações

The first edition of "Keith Whitley 101" that I posted to my original jkwfaninwv70 account was so popular, with over 30K views, that I decided to pull every resource that I had to make an all-new version of "Keith Whitley 101." The original version was just over 6 minutes long. Part 1 of this version is already much longer. Part 1 starts with Keith's childhood and spans his entire bluegrass career with Ralph Stanley, Ricky Skaggs, and JD Crowe, and explores his first few years as a mainstream country artist with RCA, the record company that one of his idols, Elvis Presley, was signed to. The clip ends in early 1988, just before the release of the album that catapulted him to the ranks of superstardom, "Don't Close Your Eyes.". + Informações

Keith never used this Skip Ewing-penned tune on any of his records, and he seldom performed it live, but he used this song on this 1987 appearance on TNN's "Nashville Now" to deliver the good news. The "good news" that was eventually delivered later on that summer is now 21 years old and is the front man for The Black Saddles, a new up-and-coming country rock band who describe themselves as "Guns n' Roses on horseback." Jesse reports that the CD has just been completed, and there are some surprises amongst the collection. Can't wait to hear it! No one is allowed even a teaser until Grandma Faye has heard it. Darn! By request, here are the lyrics. Hope I got these right, as they aren't anywhere else on the Internet-- (written by Donald R. "Skip" Ewing for Acuff-Rose-Opryland Music [reg. 7/17/1986]) She aint wearing tight blue jeans anymore Shes gone out and bought some fancy new things at the store I dont think Ive ever seen her look like this before I know shes got something on her mind She called up all the friends she has and told them on the phone She was crying for no reason yesterday when I came home I cant say its her fault cause Im just as much to blame But I dont think well ever be the same Shes making plans for someone new And I cant understand what shes going through But Im doing the best I can; Ill be there to hold her hand While shes making plans I really shouldnt worry cause Im sure shell be all right Still I know how itll scare me when she finally says its .... + Informações
