    • @ocan1033
      @ocan1033 Před 6 lety +9

      He's had a 40 year career playing 'real' film roles where he actually acts, sold millions of records, appeared on the Tonight Show more than any other musical act, and still has the pipes at 60 to knock it out of the park. I think the reason he has so many dedicated fans is that he didn't go "bigger" and kind of flies below the radar (as much as any platinum-selling artist and prolific film actor can.) "Bigger" would have been Garth Brooks and Garth couldn't carry Dwight's biscuit tin.
