It's not even on Amazon music

Country music needs more Lionel Cartwrights

It's a shame this song didn't make it to #1 on the US country chart. It topped out at #3.

Thankyou Lionel , for this song. I have found a man that truly loves me. It has pushed me for better. God bless you.

One of my favorite songs of the early 90's, Thank you Mr cartwright ..

Now THAT'S country music!

A great song .

we did too, and he was great!!

Apple Music- please add this song!

A Great song! And makes me recall a memory from years ago! It as a painful sight to see! 😢

I remember hearing the song "Give Me His Last Chance" in 90.

I don't remember him. Heard What Kind of Fool on Sirius XM Prime Country. He should have made it much bigger!! Talented unlike some who did make it big.

Can't find this song on Spotify. It's one of the best dance songs out there

What ever happened to him? Such a great singer, I remember seeing him at a local fair, years ago.....

Cartwright's self-titled debut album was released in 1989 under the production of Tony Brown. Lead-off single "You're Gonna Make Her Mine" charted at No. 45 on the country charts, followed by three straight Top 20 hits: "Like Father, Like Son" at No. 14, "Give Me His Last Chance" at No. 3 and "In My Eyes" at No. 12.[3] Cartwright wrote nine of the album's ten songs, and played guitar, fiddle, piano and mandolin on it.[5] His next album, I Watched It on the Radio, followed in 1990. It was led off by the No. 8 "I Watched It All (On My Radio)", which he co-wrote with Don Schlitz. After it came the No. 7 "My Heart Is Set on You" and No. 31 "Say It's Not True". The album was also his highest peak on Top Country Albums, at No. 21. Brown produced this album as well. Chasin' the Sun was the title of his third and final MCA release, which was issued in 1991. Unlike with his first two albums, Cartwright worked with several producers and studio musicians. Although the album produced his only No. 1 country hit in its lead-off single "Leap of Faith", the other two singles were not as successful: "What Kind of Fool" reached No. 24 and "Family Tree" missed the Top 40, with a No. 62 peak. After the latter, he charted two more singles ("Be My Angel" and "Standing on the Promises") which were never included on an album, and left MCA in 1992. He wrote "If That's What You Call Love" on Kathy Mattea's 1997 album Love Travels,[6] a song which also featured him on piano and background vocals.[7] Since exiting MCA, Cartwright has composed themes for television series, including 30 Minute Meals. He currently serves as the Worship Pastor at HopePark Church in Nashville. All credit to Wikipedia.

Lionel is a worship pastor at a church in Nashville

This song my late husband played 2 me the night we started dating... I was waiting on my ex boyfriend 2 come over we was supposed to get back together but he never showed up and he came over and cooked dinner 4 us and played this song 2 me

I feel this on two levels. I have given too many chances and I know someone that has given too many chances to their’s and I would only need one for her to make her happy

Wish they’d put this on @itunes

He started out at the same time Billy Ray Cyrus did. Billy Ray had Dollys backing. Lionel was on his own. And we see how that all turned out.

Whatever happened to him? I really liked this song,and I still have the cassette.

According to Wikipedia Biography Cartwright was born in Gallipolis, Ohio, but was raised in Glen Dale, West Virginia. Cartwright was interested in music from an early age. He first took piano lessons as a child, before going on to master guitar and eight other instruments.[2] Lionel first performed publicly at age ten in community gatherings.[3] He also went on to serve as performer, arranger and musical director on The Nashville Network's musical sitcoms I 40 Paradise and Pickin' at the Paradise.[3] Later on, Cartwright moved to Nashville, Tennessee and worked as a demo singer.[4] He was eventually spotted by Tony Brown, a producer at MCA Records, while performing in Knoxville, Tennessee. Brown thought that Cartwright needed more experience before being signed to a record deal, and by 1986, Cartwright was signed to MCA.[3] Cartwright's self-titled debut album was released in 1989 under the production of Tony Brown. Lead-off single "You're Gonna Make Her Mine" charted at No. 45 on the country charts, followed by three straight Top 20 hits: "Like Father, Like Son" at No. 14, "Give Me His Last Chance" at No. 3 and "In My Eyes" at No. 12.[3] Cartwright wrote nine of the album's ten songs, and played guitar, fiddle, piano and mandolin on it.[5] His next album, I Watched It on the Radio, followed in 1990.
