As others have said here, this is the original. Keith's voice is unforgettable and his legacy lives on. So many of today's traditional country artists will count Keith as an icon and an inspiration. Of course, he had his demons and we lost him way too soon, but that doesn't tarnish the amazing gift he left us.

GOAT

[@chriswaltman5313]

There have been many covers of this song. But Keith Whitley will always be the best. RIP Keith.

[@patst1944]

Every Keith Whitley song is great. “Don’t Close Your Eyes” and “I’m No Stranger to the Rain”are a couple that come to mind

[@marilyn4917]

Definitely!!❤

Keith's voice was like butter

[@laylalayla-jl4ik]

His Voice was/is pure perfection!!!

[@Nicole_Jewell]

Keith Whitley was the original singer of this song. Others have done it after him but in my opinion his version will forever be the best one. I love how smooth and relaxing his voice is. You need to react to " Tell Lorrie I love her", "I'm over you" , "Miami , my Amy" , "Til a tear becomes a rose ft. Lorrie Morgan" , "Somebody's doin' me right" , "Brotherly love ft. Earl Thomas Conley"

[@christielysdale1815]

Yes! Especially Brotherly Love! ETC is my absolute favorite ❤️

[@Nicole_Jewell]

@@christielysdale1815 I made a video using the song brotherly love as the song to it with Bo and Luke Duke from the Dukes of Hazzard ( the tv show not the movie) cause even though they were cousins they fought more like brothers.

[@verapena9465]

Keith Whitley does it best💯❤️

[@LadySapphire1971]

Kieth was the first to record it in 1988, Alison Krauss did it in 1995. Irish singer Frances Black did it in 1996. Irish Pop singer Ronan Keating did it in 1999. Written by Paul Overstreet & Don Schlitz, both are predominantly country songwriters.

[@Tabby_Angela]

Paul Overstreet is also an amazing singer!

[@LadySapphire1971]

@@Tabby_Angela Yes he is!

[@rafhenlow]

Alison's version was on a tribute cd of Keith's songs. This bought her to the public's notice as a singer in her own right as well as Union Station. Keith's & Alison's versions are FAR superior to any others.

[@seanscanlon9067]

@@rafhenlow There is a version on here where someone has made it into a duet with them both singing it together. Both are great on it when they have solo parts, but it goes to another level once they start harmonising.

[@ntracefan]

Keith was an amazing singer. He passed away ( I believe in ‘89 ) of alcohol poisoning. He died way too young

[@belvagurr403]

In 1989, we were on a bike trip and passed through Nashville, all over the area were billboards with Keith’s picture and condolences on his passing.

Keith's song, Don't Close Your Eyes, meant a lot to a dear friend of mine. One year on Valentine's Day he called me and sang it to me on my voicemail. My friend passed away the following year after a battle with cancer... That voicemail has been transferred from phone to phone, I'll never delete it. ...... You still owe me that dance Stan

Keith is one of my all time favorite singers!! He passed away way to soon!! I’ve never heard a bad Keith Whitley song!! Miami my Amy, is a good one.

[@KittCrescendo]

Ronan Keating and Alison Krauss both do an awesome job, but my favorite was always Keith. He is one of my all time faves…gone way too soon, and tragically, leaving another of my favorite artists a widow. Lorrie Morgan won an award for best duet with him, “Til Each Tear You Cry Becomes a Rose,” and I remember thinking how simultaneously thrilled and devastated she must have been…to win, but then to do it without him beside her to celebrate.

[@TheBarmbrackthecat]

The world lost a genius when Keith died..

I started becoming a country fan in 1989. I was home, bored out of my mind, only got three channels on my TV (good old rabbit ears days) and started watching the CMA awards for that year. They did a tribute to Keith and that was all it took.

[@roywall8169]

Keith was called “the voice” for a reason. When you learn about his life, his music hits you like a ton of bricks. He was such a flawed, vulnerable human being (as we all are). His pain comes through with every note. RIP Kieth. 🤘🏻🤟🏻

[@beagrinton5934]

So very beautiful 🤩 I just love your commentary 🥰🇨🇦

[@sheryldalton8965]

The live version is excellent. He said this was the most beautiful song he'd ever recorded. It was released in late '88 & was his 2nd #1. Sadly he was gone months later. Allison Krause recorded it but Keith's is best.

I agree with @pats1944 comments below! Keith was so awesome back in the day. He left s way too soon!! I just love his voice! Allison Krauss sung this song also. But, you should really check out the version where they dubbed Keith and Allison singing it together. It is absolutely amazing!

He didn't write the song but was the first to record this song. It's been covered by a few artists over the years including, Clay Walker, and Alison Krauss with Union Station. This was recorded the year before he died.
