I went through chemotherapy and radiation treatments with Lyle. He doesn't know it, but this beautiful man with compassion in his soul has brought me through many a trying time. Thank you Lyle - Heck I even named my dog Lyle and he's a sexy little guy just like the man. Love you Lyle, thank you darlin.

Lyle Lovett fits some music style of his own. He doesn't fit Folk or Country music. I went to a folk concert and he was there with cellos, violins and so forth. I figured either he was in the wrong place or I was. If his jokes and monolouge was funny, I never knew, Couldn't understand his mumbling. After suffering through a couple songs of undescribable origin and dubious clarity, I left. Whoever picked him for this show made a big mistake.
