    As others have said here, this is the original. Keith's voice is unforgettable and his legacy lives on. So many of today's traditional country artists will count Keith as an icon and an inspiration. Of course, he had his demons and we lost him way too soon, but that doesn't tarnish the amazing gift he left us.

    Kieth was the first to record it in 1988, Alison Krauss did it in 1995. Irish singer Frances Black did it in 1996. Irish Pop singer Ronan Keating did it in 1999. Written by Paul Overstreet & Don Schlitz, both are predominantly country songwriters.

    Keith Whitley was the original singer of this song. Others have done it after him but in my opinion his version will forever be the best one. I love how smooth and relaxing his voice is. You need to react to " Tell Lorrie I love her", "I'm over you" , "Miami , my Amy" , "Til a tear becomes a rose ft. Lorrie Morgan" , "Somebody's doin' me right" , "Brotherly love ft. Earl Thomas Conley"

    Ronan Keating and Alison Krauss both do an awesome job, but my favorite was always Keith. He is one of my all time faves…gone way too soon, and tragically, leaving another of my favorite artists a widow. Lorrie Morgan won an award for best duet with him, “Til Each Tear You Cry Becomes a Rose,” and I remember thinking how simultaneously thrilled and devastated she must have been…to win, but then to do it without him beside her to celebrate.

Lorie had a contractual obligation to do a concert and while she was gone, Keith took his own life from alcohol poisoning. He was an alcoholic and Lorie has told the story that she had to tie their feet together at night so she could keep track of him if he got up. He wrote a song for her 'Tell Lorie I love her' czcams.com/video/dMGRm4k69PU/video.html but she has never gotten over him so she wrote a song 'If you came back from heaven' and it tears your heart out. czcams.com/video/e1H2VIYOBps/video.html Also, here is Keith and Lorie singing Till a tear becomes a rose. czcams.com/video/1iAyjrOo2A0/video.html Please listen and react to these songs, please.
