Dwight Yoakam - Thinking About Leaving (Official Video)

[@theoldbackpacker6703]

I'm here in 2024. You can understand every word. Great music and great story. Long live Dwight

[@DeloresVandeberg]

I agree with what you said.

[@irishpodboss5339]

Who else is here in 2020? Dwight is still my all-time favorite artist, there's no one else with a voice like that, even today.

[@danieltaylor4819]

Best of the best!

[@irishpodboss5339]

@snatchmoism Well said. That's awesome.

[@irishpodboss5339]

@snatchmoism That's the truth. Time sure does fly by, but artists like this and the good memories last forever. Nice to meet you. 👍

[@martykukla7126]

I just started listening to him....can’t get enough of his music!

[@quintonwilson3127]

Yes indeed

[@StanTibbetts]

Dec. 2024...i'm 75 stil listening.....

I sure hope you and your new wife and child are richly happy and blessed.

[@carmenaparicio1498]

God bless you Dwight and your wife and child 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@carolynrobertson7075]

I am 68 and still stuck on him. Real country.

[@Kathleenskinner-n6u]

Dwight is definitely a cut above the rest. Still listening in 2024❤❤

[@JacquelynRobinson-b1x]

Me too, Sunshine State, first time I heard this song, WOW!!!❤❤❤❤

[@violetmiller9999]

Dwight is a fricking treasure! He stays true to real country, bless his heart.

[@dennisboone8882]

Yes he's feeling many of many of hard to get through nights

[@richardlusk1715]

It takes courage to not only stand out from the pack,but above it in my humble opinion

[@MsMbpayne]

You are so right . Real hilbilly

[@romysan1]

Dwight's songs are so interesting....very thoughtful.

[@cjworldnewsus]

He has a style that ‘s all his own, Dwight has a great mix of country, folk, rock, r&b, tex…a style and performance that sets him apart from anyone. Love the man the music.

[@jackdundon2261]

I THINK this is true rock-a-billy?

[@jackdundon2261]

@Dwight Yoakam🎵 Mr Yoakum, you are the king of country-rock. (Undisputed king). Another album of 1990s style country rock would be awesome. A whole new generation of fans need to know who you are! You made Suspicious Minds better! Your ballads are even some of the best! Sure would be nice to hear another Guitars and Cadillacs. Thanks (I am listening to the new stuff, looking for "it"). Thanks

[@socorrohinojosa6387]

In the songs he writes, IMHO, it's the phrasing that sets him apart from other songwriters. In his interpretations, IMHO, he is emotive and changes his "mood" to fit the song. A truly unique artist.

[@socorrohinojosa6387]

He is a poet, with his songs set to his own unique rhythms and phrasing. A veritable Poet Laureate.

[@carolhorner7895]

I don't think he even knew just how good he is. But he is one of a kind,and like Willie Nelson did he is really better with time,before so many really knew his music sound,is one of the best of all times.

[@allenscott7048]

A few days until 1/1 2023 and still listening

[@johnbell9241]

Everything song Dwight sings is pure gold.

[@marydavenport3034]

3 in the morning I'm listen to you sing I think you are a terrific guy it could be a role model for Laine Hardy and other young artists hope to see you in concert one day

[@beaniewhite6991]

I’ll love you through eternity❤❤❤❤❤

[@glendataylor5219]

All 5 of my Kids were raised on Dwight Yoakam music..Now I'm a Grandmom (12) and Great-Grandmom(4) ..the youngest Granddaughter 10 mo. old knows the sound .We dance around the house to him everyday . Dwight is the most gifted Country Singer of our time as far as I'm concerned...Love that he has stayed true to Country Music..Thanks for years of great music!

[@quinnhen2325]

great line, "I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind."

[@patriciashearouse1449]

Quinn Hen It's brilliant.

[@lonniebeavers7794]

Sometimes the best way to think things through is start at the end . And think backwards .

[@troydixon2722]

I don't think like that but it's catchy

[@troydixon2722]

When u depend on no one it's easy to make those calls its when u need help from you're partner that keeps folks together and unhappy that's why I love being independent I gotta trust ur stomach I know alot of unhappy folks true story

[@teamlotus13]

Yep! Rodney Crowell is truly a brilliant songwriter

[@peterrigl6088]

When Dwight sings his whole body comes along,his a full blood country man ❤🎉

[@angussss10]

One of my favorite Dwight Tunes. Written by Rodney Crowell, but it really does feel like a Dwight tune. The transition into the Steel Guitar during the break is just perfect.

[@michaelray3200]

I agree. I went to 3 record stores arguing that it was on the new Dwight Album....

[@blairfelgar4579]

I think Dwight co-wrote this song with Rodney Crowell -- so yeah, it's a Dwight tune, sort of. One of my favorites!

[@lynrossiter4544]

All things Dwight ❤

[@danielgiklingaarseth7762]

Im here in 2022, still the best country-artist out there🤌🏾🤌🏾

[@mariaserio4055]

My #1 man yesterday, today and for always. This is one of my favorite DY songs out of the hundreds he's blessed us with. There are many days that I listen to DY literally 24 hours (with the headphones on while I sleep). Dwight (and his band) are totally gifted/talented/awesome and life is good. I first discovered him with the Thousand Miles From Nowhere video, and I IMMEDIATELY left 40 years of rock/pop behind, and have been a country fan (1985 thru 2000s) ever since. We are all so blessed in this life, and Dwight is living proof! Enjoy life.

[@rhondamcbath6279]

My (3) all-time favorite country artists are: Dwight Yocham ties with Joe Diffie, and Patty Loveless!! Just the same as you, I listened only to the 70's music, and classic rock, then absolutely nothing else was worth listening to come 1990's!! I was depressed and seriously stuck, now what was I gonna listen to 😵?? One day I heard this music playing next door, I went out into my front porch and thought wow I wonder who that artist is with that incredible voice? So, I walked myself next door, stood at the front door and knocked! When my neighbor answered, I just ask him who was the person singing just now on your radio? He looked at me kinda funny, and said, why? Was it to loud, or bothering you? I smiled and said, no not in the least, the singer has a different kinda style and sings very well, can you tell me who he is? The man said he had just picked up this new guys disc because he was told that he would really like his sound. And the man said, I do not like country music first of all, but when I heard this guy, I was more than impressed. His name is DY, and his entire album is excellent, I guess there are a lot of new artists coming out right now, so off I happily went, and down to the record shop I went, and picked up DY new album and have never regretted it!

[@Lydia-m5u]

Nobody does it better than Dwight Yoakam! Shame he was never more mainstream like some musicians with less than half his talent!!! He remains the very best music has to offer, hands down!!!! Great actor, too!!!

[@yvonneseewald6459]

Dwight Yoakam-What can I say he's one of the greatest country singer and performer of all times. He sings from the heart,truly one of a kind..

[@JohnBarrios-x7l]

Love his music!!!!!

[@ashleyrichard7757]

l was 13 when l first purchased my Dwight yoakam CD I'm proud to say I'm 31 today and I'm still loving his music more than ever !

[@monicau5043]

Ashley Richard same HERE! At 2 years old I recognized his song just by the opening instrumental BEFORE UE EVEN STARTED SINGING! told my Mpm he's waiting for boy to be old enough for him to marry me

[@raylantz5144]

But do you still have the CD?? lol

[@agosn42]

First concert I was I'm my thirties. 77 now and still going to his concerts. Never gets old.

[@briankelly5432]

Ashley Richard Yep the real deal for years and years. Last two albums. : great. And now he might go for a little. Bluegrass New line up rocks. He's a pro. He takes care of himself and he loves to write and Loves to sing Lotta gas left in the tank. And he'll be COMIN back to the Canadian prairies pretty soon. !

[@briankelly5432]

Ray Lantz I do.

[@mp-xe7ky]

Oh boy. The memories. The first time I ever heard him on the jukebox (20+ ago) I was hooked. I didn't need to see him on MTV but, well, I was glad I did. He created the "sexy" look. That hat tipped just right, showing only them beautiful blue eyes and oh those tight jeans with that original worn/torn look . MMMMM. Many followed his sex appeal look but not many pulled it off quite the way this man did. His ability to stay true to his bluegrass roots, old style country (George, Johnny, Ricky etc...) is just another example of a true blue country artist....He will always remain in my top 5 (newest artists of my generation).

[@guzelcicekler]

+Michele Post Yup! You just said it all :) Beautifully put Michele!

[@mp-xe7ky]

thank you.

[@jakeboz101]

my father idolized still does today way to underated in my opinion when Dwight came out during the 80s,90, will always love Dwight! KING of Country lots of great memories

[@twenonah]

none u business she wore red dresses

[@aditiban002]

I just found him.in a random search.... And that's my exact feeling... Hooked since the very strain I heared that came from his voice... And I know I,m addicted to his music for life... There no saving me....

[@kelli2842]

Hats off to the main man of country music! He's a living legend!

Love this man's country voice his guitar playing. Loved him from the very start he will always be in my heart. Listen to him day and night. Makes me feel so good inside and just heals this old heart. An American treasure of the greatest country music ever recorded. I love him with my whole entire heart. Never get tired of his music. Sing to me Baby always.

Listen every day. A day without this amazing voice makes me long for it. I need his music for my mental health. Keep them coming, Dwight! Love you.

[@mariaserio4055]

SH: Totally agree with you here. No prescription drugs, no doctors, just DY playing all day long on some device. When life is a bit less-than-wonderful, as it sometimes is, I definitely put on some Dwight videos and life is good again. He is living proof of the existence of God as he is a perfect expression of God.

[@patriciaarnold484]

Allways love.GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS.. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR MUSIC YOUR DANCE .

A true country genius

[@llhudson49]

This is a great song and Dwight sings it so good,love this man

[@nancy4texas]

I used to think love was The soft rope meant to tie me down And all that could ever own me Was a guitar and another town Ten years can disappear real fast When every morning just leaves somewhere else behind But I've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind Lyin' here beside you I can feel it start to pull me away The thought I'll have again tomorrow That just came back from yesterday But your embrace makes any reason For those memories hard to find And I've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights Sometimes I miss the crowds Sometimes I miss the women I wrapped each song around Sometimes I miss that world out there So empty, hard and unkind But I've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights Sometimes I miss the noise Sometimes I miss the fading sounds Of every cheering voice Sometimes I miss that world out there So empty, hard and unkind But I've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind I've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind

[@jblcva]

The Master, and the BEST Cover artist in the business...

How Great is this Song? I Love everything Dwight!!! he just makes me Happy!!! ty youtube for all the fun!!! xox

[@magellanican]

I took very little notice of country music until, about 1989, I happened to see a British documentary on the subject. Of the many singers in it, the two that impressed me the most were Dwight Yoakam and Randy Travis - particularly Yoakam. He has a unique voice and style. I was immediately hooked, and remained so ever since.

[@KathySmibert]

2023 Absolutely nobody can compare to Dwight. I believe he has the best voice ever. I have been a fan since I first heard his music .

[@MarcosBryant-lj8zi]

What do you admire most about Dwight

[@KathySmibert]

@@MarcosBryant-lj8zi what I admire most is his music never gets old. He continues to come out with new hits. His concerts are still high energy. The man is unstoppable.

[@MarcosBryant-lj8zi]

@@KathySmibert that’s nice,so what’s your favorite song from Dwight

[@altabear6]

I could never tire of hearing your voice.

[@lauramiller43]

[@mairendee4572]

Just coming back to one of my favourite Dwight songs. This song just makes me hurt for Dwight and his youth and his fans. I'm pretty sure he produced this video - shows what he was thinking about. Saw him last month - still the man!!

[@jameslooney997]

I remember hearing him as a kid

[@warrentaylor8370]

It's 2023 and I still listen to Dwight
