OK
Ah... My country prince...
Great... But it's rather like Willie Nelson version than Elvis Presley's...
@gregf509 So in your world, Willie Nelson wrote and recorded the song " Always on My Mind" in 1983. That's only twelve years AFTER Brenda Lee and Elvis recorded it. Interesting :-)
@joyce10311987 absolutely!
i lovee you babe
beautiful...but I still love Willie Nelson singing his own song
How do you like the sniffing scotty? lol
Five people aren't on Scotty's mind.
As the highest viewing Scottie performance in the Repad videos, presumably this is him at his boring immature best.
@gregf509 wille nelson can;t sing
i prefer taylor swift.
