One of the best songs ever, from anyone. Gary is the most under rated artist if the last 20 years.

Gary Allen is the most underrated artist of our time. I really do wish this man would get more credit I own every album he's made I've never heard a bad song

Love watching him get into that guitar riff See him many times a year. Love him!!

I think the church is some kind of AA/NA type meeting. The msg is insane deep

The real motivation for this song wasnt that his wife left him but she actually committed suicide but his management and record label didn't want him to put something that dark out there so it got rewritten. As dark as this song is the truth is even worse.

@Steven Cryar Ouch, that's brutal every which way, especially the watering down by the label. I understand why they would do it, but as an artist it would hurt to not be able to tell the story as you lived it. Thanks for the skinny on that, and welcome aboard the channel!

Gary Allan puts so much emotion in his songs. To me it reminds me of him being in an AA meeting. But yeah great song.

Gary Allan Watching Airplanes is badass you should do it

Gary,is got this most amazing talent. You can hear his deep passion within his soul. Everything this man sings it reaches into my soul. I feel as if he pours every ounce of his self into his songs. I'm gonna give him not a 9.0. He deserves 10+.

Glad you go to listen to this. I'd say this is one of, if not, the best Country single this decade. The writing, the instrumentation, the arrangement and his delivery are a thing of beauty.

Glad you liked it, Luke! So much talent Gary has.

It would be you and Songs about Rain by Gary are a must….Gary has one hell of a story so his songs come from real life heartache, his wife sent him downstairs one evening to get her a coke from the fridge and before he made it back upstairs to their bedroom she sh*t herself in the head, their children were asleep just down the hall 😢

noticed someone below said his wife had died - what a tribute to her - you can hear the heartbreak in his voice and even the instruments are sadly sounding for loss - great band and love Gary Allan - love his gritty voice x defo a great rating and reaction - and agree with all you say pal xx

Country owns the Steel Guitar... I don't think there is an instrument that can produce a deeper representation of sorrow. This is one of my all time favourite songs. Wish you watched the official video. At the end he stands up in objection to his girl getting married. The video imagery is art in itself.

Gary Allan first debuted in the mid 90's. He has a string of several hits including Smoke Rings, and a few others. Then he disappeared for awhile. Then he came out strong again in the mid 2000's with several more big time songs. He is very talented.

Wasn't really gone. Just took some time to heal. Maybe want whole heartedly into it all after his wife took her life. But once he got through that, he did it his way from there on out. Threw the cowboy hat away got some tatts and became a much better singer. Also had a throat surgery in there as well

So many great songs by this country singer from California. In my viewpoint he never got the recognition that he deserves. Please give "Smoke Rings in the Dark" or "Tough Little Boys" a try.

Gary Allan is just awesome, period!

Was lucky enough to catch him in concert and what a great performer. Caused me to look up more of his music & I haven’t found a song I didn’t like.

I love this song. I don’t smoke or have any drinking problems but dam me I do love me some jack daniels tennesse honey whiskey and coke. Maybe I do who knows..😄 we’ll see when I’ve emptied this bottle

Gary Allan " No Judgement Day " ! you might just say WOW.

You may like Gary allen's version of (A showman's life . Not many people have every heard of it but it's always been a favorite of mine

If you want to hear a Gary Allen song that will rip your heart out, listen to “Don’t tell Mama , I was drinking “!

Agree. This is a badass song! Check out Jamey Johnson - My way to you. Steel guitar that kills.

There is a fun one from him its called Alright Guy or another one called Im doing my best

Hey Benjamin, I've got two other songs of Tyler's in cue, and will eventually get to Nose On The Grindstone.

Love Gary Allan! Should listen to Do You Wish It Was Me and Life Ain't Always Beautiful

Had you have seen the video you would have known that his heart is hurting because the love of his life died. And that is why he is in such pain. Hence the organ at the beginning of the song.

I'm a big fan of Gary Allan. Please give "Smoke Rings in the Dark" and "Bourbon Borderline" a try. Those are the two that started my love for his music. And I just subscribed, so help me out with a review of more of his music.

If I recall right this entire album was written after his wife committed suicide, leaving him to raise their 3 daughter's. I highly recommend Every Storm ( runs outs rain)

Damn, man, sorry for that situation in your life, as it never quite leaves your soul. You move on, but it changes how you relate to people after that. I did a lot of crying myself, but then told myself after a few months, "Enough, no more crying." And I didn't, I shut it down just so I could get on with my life and function again. Still fvcks with me sometimes.

I forced myself to get out of the house once a week. A group of friends who I honestly didn't think I had much in common with. I'm just country boy and they were a bunch of hippies. But they played decent music and the fire twirling and stuff was interesting. After a few months I wasn't whole again, but I was good.

I also requested this, but awesome nonetheless. I'd also request "No Regrets" and "Best I Ever Had", which relate to the loss of his wife, who died of suicide, leaving him and his daughter behind. I also like "Life Ain't Always Beautiful", "Watching Airplanes" (his wife was a airline stewardess), "The One", "Learning How To Bend", "Loving You Against My Will", "Get Off On The Pain", "Every Storm (Runs Out Of Rain)" (I think you did this before), "Today", "Smoke Rings In The Dark", "Half Of My Mistakes", and then you can compare his version which came out before George Strait with "A Showman's Life" and tell me who you think done it better. You do all of Gary's songs really, but the ones I listed are most, not all, of the best.

Best I've Ever Had by Gary Allan is one of the saddest stories in country music in my opinion. It's a tribute to his late wife, who committed suicide due in part to a rare form of migraines that cause unbearable pain. Would absolutely LOVE to see a reaction to that. Thanks for the great content!

@RockN2Country

Migraines are absolutely brutal. I used to get them, and would have been happy if someone put me out of my misery when I had one. I can't imagine the agony Gary lived with seeing his wife going through that, and then being alone after she ended her own life. Some things are just too hard to understand.

I like zgary Allen. A little like that song pieces by him
