Narvel Felts - Somebody hold me

[@mtenkate]

I am 40 years old...I loved this song since I was a little girl and didn't even understand what it meant. It still makes me cry...listening to this performance...thank you and bravo!

[@DonniDeVille]

I'm a country blues singer from the UK, and we never hears of Narvel Felts! OUR LOSS!!! What a performer! Amazing and even up to this age! It is heart-breaking he is not as well known as Vince Gill, George Jones, Willy, etc.....

[@riodosa40]

Marvel did this song with a lot of feeling and emotion.

[@danielneece6404]

One night at a truckstop in Georgia a voice came on the radio and said Narvel Felts will be here tonight I said, where are you and how do I get there? He said if you’re at the truckstop I will come and assist you myself and three other drivers had the best time of our lives. Even got a picture the fan club president mailed it to me. We will miss him terribly

[@noelpope1270]

Every time I watch and listen to Narvel Felts I see the Respect and Admiration from his Peers . Sadly many of them have Passed away . Great Contributor of Country Music themselves . Miss them All . Country Music FAN Forever .

[@tatyfonseca6731]

No one his age could ever sing those high notes , Yes he is truly great .

[@sandy-mr5gj]

no one can match his voice range...love him dearly in january 2021

[@dianehayse1439]

Yes he is!!!!

[@williamgmunson3146]

I can i am 81 years old looking for this song in Kerioki now

[@KathyButner]

Just the best!!!!

[@theresedeslauriers2306]

NARVEL SINGS THIS ONE WITH TREMENDOUS FEELING ---WE CAN FEEL THE HURT ----XOXOXO

[@davidsidebottom5984]

I saw sing him where I worked 45 years ago!

[@Sandi-w9d]

This song tears me up because of that... unforgettable~

[@ZJ-ne9kn]

What pipes this guy has and why he is so under rated still stuns me to this day

[@dstorm7752]

This is real country music -- the soul, the grit.

[@msgretarmy1]

Narvel comes from my neck of the woods and I have seen him several times in concert and I have never attended a concert that wasn't great. He is one of a kind and a very humble man. Thanks Narvel for all you did for country music.

[@countryboywilliams6755]

I`VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF SEEING NARVEL PERFORM IN PERSON & HE REALLY PUT ON A GREAT SHOW...THIS IS ONE OF HIS BEST, I THINK

[@miriammaldonado7848]

Country music singers have the most beautiful voice.

[@Joefuss2]

Years ago when I was much younger I fell head over heels for someone and she wanted more from life then I was capable of offering at the time. Our divorce scarred my heart which I wasn't prepared for. I sat for hours in this one establishment alone just sitting at the bar with a longneck in my hand listening to this song at least a million times. I made that juke-box fat with my money. Years went by and one day I just "woke up" and went back to school. Picked up several degrees and today I am a millionaire with my own business - and she's "The Queen Of The Silver Dollar". Narvel is fantastic with this song!

[@touch3010]

Big mistake (Her I mean)

[@oliviadriver1362]

Good for you! It's always good to get rid of bad garbage.

[@dorarobertson3608]

Joe fuss. Good for you. Be proud because you are strong.

[@Katy-ul9bj]

Sometimes we just don't know a person, till we wise up and see the real person. God has a plan for each of us , but we don't always stay on the path he has for us to follow and it gets purdy bumpy. You are one of the lucky ones . God bless ✝ Stay Strong and have no fear. LONG LIVE OUR AMERICAN REPUBLIC LAND OF FREEDOM AND HOME OF THE BRAVE !

[@jamcrane3]

Now, I know this is from 2010, but Narvel's voice is good as it was in the 70's

[@beanie41]

brotherhamlet please don't ever take this video off here, man this is some kind of voice.thank you for uploading it. John B.

[@starr522]

In 1981 I was on the same show as Mr Felts. I was stage right watching his show. LOL I cried then as I cried now. When you have listened to perfection, it does so touch you.

[@joycegilliam5715]

Marvel is one of the greatest!!!!!! Somebody hold me is a great favorite of mine!! I wish more of our singers today would get back to the great songs we love to hear!!

[@jackieturnbow660]

i do love this man... im blessed to live in the town he resides in and see him often in all the stores.. what a genuine humble man he is and has always remained the same.. i feel honored he chose to stay in our small town .. i had the priviledge to babysit his children when they were very young.. Thank you Mr. Felts for staying true to who you are.. Pam Turnbow

[@Rasolyn1]

I have seen him sing in person many times and he is awesome...all his heart and soul in his songs....awesome

[@johnjohnson2855]

That’s what country sounds like!!!

[@ragen13]

I love this man, his voice is still so strong and great even now. God Bless him.

[@dianahayse1095]

A great singer. A great song too. Love his vocals.

[@shethang81]

@yerboyfloyd I am not that old but he melts my heart. He is a showman. He is 70years old and still can hold a note for a very long time.

[@fredericaharris817]

Narvel, you are so talented. I. Can't believe how much emotion you put in to your songs. I'm sure you remember me. I'm the youngest of the Waddle girls from Bernie. It's always a pleasure to hear you sing. Frederica Waddle Harris

[@DonniDeVille]

As for the thumbs down, that can only be from TROLLS! Everyone who has a heart, or is it.... has a SOUL, can't help but be moved by this performance!!!

[@philipdonald7092]

Hello beautiful dear

[@kc5tng]

WoW - - - You rarely ever see and hear someone singing a song that truly comes from the "heart" but right there, you did - It got to me- and I rarely get touched like that by anyone ~!

[@StayBill1992]

What a fantastic performance! Truly a treasure!

[@janetfarris3739]

I love this amazing song. I've always loved Marvel Felts. He can really reach your heart be ♥️♥️🌹🌹

[@tonyrowell9270]

That's real country music

[@jamesmoore1322]

After all these years he still sounds good

[@lynnhayse8890]

Such a great voice!!! I love this singer.

[@RonnyLillard]

I had the honor and the pleasure to play several gigs with Narvel, around '89 or '90. I got to stand right beside him and I can tell you this man can sing... Very fond memories...

[@conwayconway2177]

That's so awesome

[@sandrapeitsch6833]

It must have been great he is one of the besr

[@teresahoopsdetroit]

Now I know what to say... such feeling, such soul, such emotion, such goosebumps I have from this!!!

[@mixbrix]

Amazing. None of these new guys can come close to matching Mr Felts' talent.

[@dorarobertson3608]

No matter how many times I see this video it's like the first time! Just wow! Narvel Felts is still among greatest voices!

[@loronaconley6400]

I just love his voice!!!

[@lisasnowden1789]

Such a awesome song. He puts his soul into singing this!!! ❤❤❤

[@cruisingcory5414]

Yes he does!

[@latokatn506]

One of Best Vocalist ,That put all his Power into his Songs & it put a feeling in your Heart ,very few can duplicate

[@tatyfonseca6731]

Narvel , I met several times once at a spot where he was laying flowers , it was where his son was killed on the highway 53 just North of Campbell MO . and another time in Walmart's store in his home town of Malden Mo. I talked to him long enough to find what a gentleman he was . Great singing Narvel !

[@debbyflanagan4828]

taking this beautiful song out of context ....but that is exactly how I felt the day of my mums funeral....and every word accept for 'bride' sums up the anguish and hurt ...such a poignant song for me thank you

[@ChasFLTN]

What a performance with feeling! Great voice! I've heard this song many times and still get a chill each time I hear Narvel sing it.

[@cards1985]

Narvel Felts is a legend.

[@touch3010]

Don't know how many, many times I've played this and man I still get my hair standing on end at that last delivery. Awesome, just Totally Awesome

[@robertarnold7187]

Wow! What a performance! Thanks for the post.

[@jeanbudgell7015]

Awesome singer.👍😍

[@barrys4922]

Narvel is putting it down. I've loved this song since the 70s, but I love it even more now that I can see him performing.

[@touch3010]

Watched this a few times now. This last time I watched the audience. When you've hooked your peers as Narvel did, when they are totally engrossed in your singing, when they including the band, give you a standing ovation,....Thats something Real Special. How was this guy not a super star?????

[@wilecoyote2167]

He was. This man was a powerhouse in the 70's and every country bar band did their damn hardest to copy the man. Few pulled it off. Believe me, my band tried like everyone else. His vocal range was awesome.

[@annieaddison6292]

To me there are only two men that could pull off the vocal range to get the utter respect of their fellow artistes and that was Narvel Felts and Gene Watson. None of them got the recognition they should have.The look on Jean Shepherds face says it all.

[@touch3010]

@@wilecoyote2167 I saw somewhere that he came here to New Zealand back in the 80's. Wish I had known of him then. I certainly wouldve gone to see him. Couple of the best I've seen her, Kenny Dale and Boxcar Willie RIP both of you

[@airborneassasin]

Narvel still sounds great.. always a lot of emotion in his voice and body language

[@MrSuperchargers]

Ok... how can anyone give this a thumbs down? Im a rocker to the core and dont usually listen to much else, but man ...when a legend like this sings, and does he ever sing.... you have to bow down and give the props where the props are due. Narvel Felts is simply an amazing talent.

[@champdog76]

I'll second that, Brian. Well said.

[@UTMOSTPLEASURES]

IT'S SO SAD THAT MOST OF HIS POPULARITY WENT TO EUROPE AFTER THE MID-70'S. NARVEL IS A FRIEND OF MINE. AT LEAST HE WAS. WE KINDA LOST TOUCH OVER THE YEARS. HE ONLY COMMUNICATES WITH THE U.S. MAIL OR CORDED TELEPHONE. HE IS NOT A FAN OF TECHNOLOGY. NOBODY CAN SING LIKE NARVEL! I'VE TRIED. CAN'T HIT THOSE NOTES HIGH ENOUGH OR RICH ENOUGH! GLAD YOU LOVE HIM TOO!

[@peggystephens6069]

+UTMOST where can I wrote him?

[@fredericaharris817]

Narvel came home from his tour to be a pall bearer at my Aunts funeral. He is one of the nicest men you could ever meet.

[@bernicebraun7187]

He hi amawwww

[@jimmywilliams9258]

I'll be playing piano on this song with Narvel this Saturday in Pocohantas Arkansas. He's puts everything into every song. Such a pleasure to play behind this great artist.

[@davidsniff3209]

I started wanting to see Narvel live at the Acme Brickfest over in Malvern back in the early 70's. Dry County, Drunk Me never made it. Life has it's Regrets.

[@deanrysewyk3021]

Now this is country!!! Love this song, one of the best ever!!!

[@guylainelauzon7011]

that man has a voice that can't be compared with every word that comes out he had everyone in the audience right in the palm of his hand and that is saying a lot when you take into consideration that everyone else is a super star in their own rights love that song always will

[@next2u2nite]

What a great entertainer,there's nothing better to say,Wow!!!!

[@sandrapeitsch6833]

The best could listen to him all night

[@gene7902]

this is the best,best,best,best,best song iv ever herd in my 79 years ov my life.

[@sandy-mr5gj]

i agree

[@sherrihansard9305]

I met him several years ago when he did a concert in the bar where I worked. I will give him credit. He can really sing.

[@rogergibson9704]

I saw narvel a few years back,,,A great talent..

[@schaffersoutdooradventures4071]

I did a sign dedication cermony for Narvel today in Malden,Mo. I met both him and his wife. They are very, very nice people. Have fun in Florida Norvel till we meet again !

[@gsmphonereview7635]

Everyone here calling him a legend etc etc He def is, but i live righ by him, and to me and the neighbors hes just Narvel. A good guy and neighbor.

[@avenelgrace1603]

I just can't stop watching narvel in this video. He sang the song many times, but he bent his whole body and soul into it this time. What a great performance. I love it.

[@pjdorris6329]

What a super talent, Narvel sings this with every ounce of his body and soul. I truly love it and watch this video over and over. WOW

[@dagfinnolsen5779]

[@debbyflanagan4828]

[@MissKitty-qf7jp]

Old. Naevel. Felts.. great singer they didn't give him enought credit 2019 May thanks

[@BobSmith-gx6vg]

i watched it at least 4 times i saw it, and a thousand more.. my wife cringes when i go to you tube, and that was not a rude woman, she was very polite.

[@greghostetler8090]

amazing talent. this man should be a nationally known icon. he is still performing, I encourage everyone to go see him.

[@benniesweat9848]

Narvel Felts Don't ever give up friend, it took me 20 years to land my wife, we should have been together those years, but we did have 44 years of Happy Bliss marriage.

[@selbymesher9550]

Oh man! I have listened to this several times. I am just amazed at this guy. Talented legend! 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏

[@barbaramanning8856]

they don't have songs like this anymore

[@belleray2]

Back for the hundredth time. Too good!!! Just love this so much.

[@next2u2nite]

I cut my music molars in the Bootleg bars of Pennsylvania dutch country and you've gotta believe that a man like this with this talent and ability to touch that part of you that no-one even knows about is a once maybe twice in a lifetime great benchmark. Vern Gosdin would be another. WoW!!!! Really great!! Like another entry said,look at his peers,just overcome by this performance!!!!

[@bushmaster7893]

What a great voice! He pours out his heart and soul when he sings this one.

[@williamdenny6024]

I have never heard this man before, HE IS AWESOME....I can see that I've missed a lot...he tugs at the heart...
