ERNEST - Would If I Could (feat. Lainey Wilson) (Lyric Video)

[@nathanielstephenbaue]

😢 They just recreated 90s country. Thank you so much!

[@KansasFarmer620]

I literally was thinking the same

[@BrentCantrell]

​@@KansasFarmer620😊

[@courtneygonzales8321]

Check out Zach Top he has the flare for that 90s country

[@pamelanicholson393]

She sounds like Dolly in some parts and Loretta in others. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@IWas.ThereforeIAm.111]

I say over n over that Lainey is our kids genera of Dolly ❤😢❤ I'm glad I grew up with Dolly but I'm glad this generation gets Lainey ❤❤❤

[@jaybauer7122]

Lainey Wilson is Awesome❤

[@jamiekidd6963]

When I heard Lainey sing Save Me with Jelly Roll for the first time I had no idea who she was but DOLLY PARTON came to my mind gave me chills. Lainey again sounds like a young Dolly & Ernest sounds like Daryl Singletary to me in this song.

[@kristinzastrow6910]

I totally heard Dolly too

[@IWas.ThereforeIAm.111]

Sounds so pure 90's 😢❤ Bawling 😭 All I hear is the 90's Reba & Vince Gill duets ... Anyone ?? ❤ Oh... and Reba & Brooks n Dunn, If you see him/her, duet 😮 I hear that magic here 🥲🙃🥰

[@barry6251]

I’m getting more of a George jones vibe

[@notaylorhere]

The song was written in 1996

[@IWas.ThereforeIAm.111]

​@@barry6251😮 oooooo I do too now that you say it ❤😊❤

[@IWas.ThereforeIAm.111]

​@@notaylorhereexplains the vibe of this beaut song ❤❤❤

[@carolyncollins3112]

❤❤❤

[@GrammaEllie82]

For anyone who has ever had THAT ONE that will always hold your heart, but wont ever hold your hand again. ❤❤

[@LorriePate]

Sure do

[@AtkinTheory]

Song came on the radio literally weeks after I had enough. Shit hit me like a freight train, but I know it's true. My love is unconditional, but my trust isn't.

[@CountryLinda]

S8 Beautiful ♥️

[@hazpacks8914]

😢 wow that hits home.

[@jimmyandy19]

That comment is to real hits home

[@shaylyntom4826]

Oh my gosh❤ All the 90s feels. Thank you Ernest and Lainey

[@Justbeingme971]

❤❤❤ I have always thought Ernst was highly underrated and this proves that. His vocals are great. Lainey Wilson is always spot on. She is excellent at duets.

[@julieducrest4271]

Totally agree. Another Keith Whitley and Lori Morgan duet. Absolutely love the song and the singers.

[@nikki2610]

Ernest is my favourite male Country artist right now. So talented 🤎

[@John_Lumbra]

I’m getting dolly vibes from Lainey and that’s amazing! Good song, great song , great writing. Thanks for this. Cheerss

[@KatieWilson615]

Yes yes yes! I heard Dolly in this too

[@Lilbean94]

I heard Dolly too, but I also thought Lee Ann Womack

[@kristinzastrow6910]

Me too - that one line I was like wait .. woah 😮

[@memriewaters3556]

Lainey’s voice gives me chills when she belts it out!

[@tinamurphy4123]

I heard Dolly a few times

[@patriciahoward1577]

I immediately went to see who wrote The Chair bc of the melody (I hope that’s the right word, lol) & of course Dean Dillion helped write it & this. I love this song & can see it being a hit. I hope to see y’all at one of your own shows (or together) sometime. I could listen to her sing absolutely anything I swear.

[@robertellisorrallmusic]

If this is the future of country music, then I'm all in.

[@mattduran4876]

100

[@road_king_dude]

💯💯💯

[@jeffmccoy6924]

This is a skip Ewing original. That's why this seems so unreal for this generation of country lol.

[@finamir]

The collaboration I never knew I needed. ❤🎉

[@annabellepartnerincrime5348]

GOD'S GIFTED WITH PURPOSE AND VOICE. THANK YOU BOTH FOR YOUR BLESSINGS AND BLESSING ALL OF US CITIZENS EVERYDAY 😊💯😇👆

[@katemonahan61]

Oh my Gaaawd! Lump in the throat, chill bumps, tears in my eyes! Grabbed my heart. Cant stop playing this one. Get ready Lainey and Ernest for awards, chart topping, duet performances and next level success with this beautiful old school -real country vibe gem! Love it. We've Needed it!

[@LuckyGirl271]

I literally heard this for the 1st time today n bawled my eyes, I miss him soo much and the connection that we had but I don't know what to do...

[@jaybauer7122]

LAINEY WILSON NEVER DISAPPOINTS ❤❤❤

[@paulamckinney7941]

[@thatguynick9455]

[@Louthemailman]

[@donnahatfield3779]

WOW. I love this. Best one yet, Lainey, and I love all you do.

[@Cloud-sl1zk]

Lainey's voice is so sweet... it is like she is Dolly's baby girl... And Ern is super sweet too! Great songwriting. Love this duo..

[@larrygauld8208]

Should be all over the charts... preferably #1!

[@caycesmithson3026]

90s country!!! Yes! bring it back!!! So good! ❤️❤️ That steel guitar sound 🫠❤️

[@leslies4]

Such a great ending and loving the 90’s vibe. Let’s get it back

[@elizabethanderson6501]

Country Gold! Thank you ERN!! Lainey, oh my goodnes! Absoloutley fabulous. She's got that Tammy Wynette's vibrato. Love, love it! This should ERN you song of the year!!

[@reginagalvan-fb3yi]

Beautiful ✨️ thank you Ernest and Lainey ❤

[@joanfraser6500]

Great performance of this amazing song that was written in 1996 by two of my favourite singer/songwriters, Skip Ewing and Dean Dillon. I absolutely miss hearing them on radio. Nice to hear their music again.

[@TidesThatVibe]

WASNT MY CHAIR AFTERALLL IS ALL I HEAR ON THIS JAM. ❤

[@shawnmcmillan1457]

Folks don’t realize this song is from 70-80’s and Ernest put his touch on it to where you believe it’s an original. Sign of true artist

[@floridian4072]

Exactly. 90s never popped up in my head. Literally Captain and Tennille popped up in my head. This is very much late 70s and early 80s tune

[@ClayinSWVA]

@@floridian4072it sounded like a new George Strait song coming over the radio.

[@naulavaka9152]

What's the original song?

[@vandergod]

I heard Ernest talking about this. This was written way back when but was never released because it sounded similar to another song by the same writer, “The Chair” from George Strait. So no one recorded it and it sat unsung until Ernest and Lainey both found it and sang it as a duet. I’m so glad they found and released it!

[@larrywright6214]

That was Dean Dillon,along with Skip Ewing

[@garypjh]

Thanks. I wondered why I didn't remember hearing it before.

[@debiporch]

Sounds like some ‘Real’, good, ole’ school country music again!! FINALLY! Country music fans from all over thank you!!❤

[@thehopetyler]

And THAT is how you make a #1 song!❤🎶🎤🎧🎛❤️‍🔥🙌🎊

[@KatieWilson615]

This song reminds me of “ The Chair” by George Strait. Love some 90’s country, I’m here for it. Lainey is amazing!

[@dc-ve7bh]

Me too sweetheart

[@corir1045]

Both written by dean dillon

[@krislismar4812]

How is this not on the radio right now??

[@nightowl1890]

It is where I live. That’s where I first heard it.

[@drillsgtdad9371]

Right… wtf

[@Carter29027]

It’s on the highway

[@conniesumrall9454]

Such a beautiful song 🎧 and voices! Classic my new favorite song 🦅

[@Mrsdode]

I can not get this song out of my head I'm shadow dancing all of the time again .wonderful song it will be on repeat for a long long time. Thank you two you did this perfect...........

[@CowGoMoo23]

Finally a taste of country in all the pop. This reminds me of a Kenny and Dolly.

[@katonnaloibl1004]

This is the same melody as John Michael Montgomery I love the way you love me. Great song. Both of you

[@gloriachandler8783]

Such a beautiful song. The lyrics are so heart-touching. They make me cry, "because I want to". Awesome job❣❣

[@noidea1962]

This is just plain FIRE. Love it. How is it not in the #1 on the charts....smdh

[@bethtisdalestaton7250]

THANK YOU LORD ❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️ There is still HOPE FOR TRADITIONAL COUNTRY MUSIC ❤❤❤❤❤

[@JenniferD-v5t]

Damn, Ern….I’ve had this on repeat all night. This is REAL! 💯 hot!

[@TamiLee-j3x]

Reminds me of early George Strait and I absolutely love it!!!

[@ClayinSWVA]

I figured it out, Dean Dillon one of the original songwriters on this song wrote this along with The Chair by George Strait around the same time. That is why it sounds like a Strait song.

[@MatthewDeWeese-m5k]

This is the realist song ever. Literally explains everything that I can’t. ❤

[@terrihowser9546]

Omg this is absolutely beautiful & a tearjerker. I love these twov they are true & as genuine as you get. Ernest, Morgan & Hardy are great buddies & awesome singer/songwriters. This song is what country used to sound like. Bravo Ernest & Lainey. Cried through most if it & that's what makes a song great if it touches your heart & soul.

[@threedogslong]

Welcome back to the 90's!! Love, love, love this song!!!

[@sandyheflin5199]

OMG this is beautiful! I woulda sworn it was Dolly singing instead of Lainey!! Soooo good ❤️

[@robynmundy993]

This is going to be a big award winner!

[@teresamay6981]

Omg just hearing this it's a definite number 1 hit .❤❤

[@fordtruckman80]

It'll be a miracle if this ends up on the mainstream radio.

[@olgadiaz6745]

Cool take on the old Todd Rash song lyric “I would if I could (but I can’t so I won’t) love it!

[@sallystingray9927]

I come back and listen to this song several times a day. Such an early 90's, good county feel and I absolutely love it! It's beautiful.

[@BigHunny61]

This song reminds me of John Michael Montgomery's "I Swear". Thank you, Ernest & Lainey. ❤

[@garypjh]

Heard this on car radio recently. Thought it was new, but read it was written in '96. Either way, best song I've heard in quite a while.

[@angelamaezgurich3674]

Wow, that was absolutely beautiful You guys...thank you so much. It was such a beautiful song.❤❤❤

[@daltonwhite8370]

Some times it takes a while for me to warm up to a song before i come to love it.this song was playing in the middle of the night on my radio as i was drifting in and out of sleep and i loved instantly!!!!!!!

[@CarrieWilson-w1r]

I agree. Dolly and Loretta. So good!

[@SherylVillneurve]

This is remarkable. It needs to be out now ! ❤

[@zeke957]

BEST "COUNTRY" SONG I'VE HEARD IN A LONG LONG TIME

[@vicki6771]

Makes you wonder if Ernest and Hardys talents would have ever been noticed if MW didnt take them on tour 2 times in a row. Thats makes me sad because they both are so talented. But watch them go now. Happy for you Ernest. ❤

[@NANAOF252]

I love this song and I love these two together.

[@MrKingkyle1]

The Lainey verse is giving definitive Dolly vibes

[@floridian4072]

Uh huh! Crazy how everyone saying 90s lol and I’m like what?! If anything, the 90s stayed sampling music from the 70s and 80s! What are y’all on!! 😂😂😂

[@MrYorkieScot]

I was gonna say i get so many Dolly vibes listening to Lainey Wilson, even more on this song. Beautiful and Ernest is a song writing genius.

[@mykyhome]

They sound so good with each other just wish they did it more

[@AReaux2000]

The lyrics to this song explain her and I so perfectly. Safe to say this song has been on repeat in my head, my truck, at work, and just about everywhere else. Every single day. Thank you Ernest and Lainey, sincerely.
