In actuality, Kristofferson failed to make the top ten on the singles charts, and it took a huge dive down the charts once it started losing spins. It doesn't seem to be selling boatloads of Tim McGraw albums, either.

So, douchebags who have never played or sang a note, listen up: this is stuff that will sell a record, and overall, it's a very good song. You guys can write/sing one better? Well, by all means, let's hear it. Please. No one? Okay, then shut the HELL up.

I normally don't like country, but I think this song is great. Kristofferson, in his younger days, wrote a lot of great songs and drank a lot. As new country song lyrics go, c'mon, it is eloquent when compared with others. I love the piano and steel guitar. This is the best song out on the radio right now in my opinion.

Tim McGraw is a well enough established artist to not need to evoke a fellow great musician's name in order to sell albums. the first time i heard this song, i loved it, because its a song that most people can relate to, especially if they go through the the same situation. Tim McGraw is, and will be for a while at least, a well established, great singer of songs, and thus does not need to use other singers names to sell records, so if thats what yall think, yall are wrong yall can say whatever you want about this song, but it is awesome. it defenitely dont tdeserve a thumbs down.

Mike W. I believe you need to do a little research into Kristoffersons song writing.... He has written hundreds of songs recorded by many artists,in nearly all genre. Many of them are famous ballads about love and loss. ;) I can’t help thinking that I have heard this song before…..does anyone know if it is a remake? and if so who recorded it first?

That's one of the things I admired about Garth Brooks. He made a ton of money for Chris LeDoux and he tried to do the same for New Grass Revival (using them to record their song, Calling Baton Rouge.) I figure that's what McGraw was trying to do with this little throwaway. One could argue that a really great artist could figure out a better way to bring attention to another writer, but McGraw isn't really known as full of ideas.
