They made many hits with Jimmy,they made many hits with Lew,doesnt really matter to me.What matters is that these men have been unparalleled as singers and showmen.They always gave their audiences 100%.By the way,if anyone who reads this knows any of The Statlers,please tell them that this Vietnam Vet appreciates "More Than A Name on the Wall" more than I could ever put into words.God Bless you all for that wonderful,meaningful song.

On my wife and mine 50th anniversary, our children and our grandchildren had a real nice celebration for us. My wife and I danced to many of our favorite songs, and this one was the last song we danced to on that very special day., but we didn't make it through the dance. We just stopped dancing and held each other with tears streaming down our cheeks as the song played. It's also the last song we danced to in this life, as I lost her two weeks later due to a massive stroke. This song has special meaning to me and it always brings tears to my eyes.

Many years ago a friend was in love. One night after having way too much to drink he put an old amp in his car along with a long extension cord and at about 2AM was just outside that girl's bedroom window. He was singing this song to her. I was standing maybe 200 feet away leaning against a tree laughing and crying both. The girl's father surprised me by just standing at the door until he finished. About 6 months later they got married. Still, after close to 30 years still married and bouncing their grandkids on their knees. My only regret is I could not video that event.

When my girlfriend and I get married and I don't know for sure when that will be but when we do I'd love to sing the song My only love to her while playing the guitar hopefully with three other people performing it with me.But I'd be happy if they play the Statler Brothers version. The Statler Brothers are much better.I'm sorry to hear that the Bass singer had passed away. Has any of the others passed away too or are there still three surviving members.I used to sing Bassin school choirs once my voice changed at 13 years old in 1970 or maybe it was at 11 or 12 years old in 1968 or 1969. Anyway I also sang Bass in Church choir with my mom and sisters who were also in the church choir when I was 14 back in 1971 when I was a Catholic. I'm a Christian now because of some weird Catholic freaks ( Two women and 1 man ) who treated me badly when I had been homeless. I'd already switched to the Christian faith but they treated me like I was a sinner for switching to the Christian faith. I no longer go to any church because I lost my faith because of them and since I had been homeless I'm now living with my sister so I don't have a Christian Church to go to.When I was in church choir I sang Bass but the choir director started another choir that did secular music ( Non Religious old standards and popular music too ) I sang Tenor in the Americana International Choir and wore International Costumes and just American clothes too. I was in Rock Bands and Country Bands too as a rhythm guitar player backup vocalist the highest vocal out of 3 or 4 vocalists at different times with the same friend who since passed away recently.In that band I later switched to playing the Bass. I also play a little bit of Mandolin and if I work at it I could learn to play keyboard too. I could play a basic beat on drums and I could play rhythm and lead guitar together but not real good lead because I have to play rhythm guitar with it. I'm going to bed now so later folks !

During my first marriage, this song came out, and I attributed it to our marriage & love, because I had loved him so much!! We went to see the Statler's whenever we could, and I think I still have many of their albums. We were headed to our State Fair in September 1982, where they were to perform, and we received a phone call, that my brother had died in a car wreck, so we didn't go to the Fair. A few years later on Memorial Day, I went to the Cemetery where my brother was buried, and behold, the Statler's were singing thru out the cemetery over the intercom, and I knew then that my brother knew, that I was there. Six years later, my husband cheated and wanted a divorce. He married another woman (diff from the affair), and claimed this song as "their song"!! My daughter was furious!! I will always love the Statler's regardless, and hope they sing to me & my daughter, when we get up there!! 💐✝️👍💕

Never even for one second take the love you have for granted . Never go to bed at night assuming tomorrow's just another day. In five short minutes your life can be turned completely upside down . You can go from this happy comfortable life to being more alone then you ever thought you could be. You can go from getting up every morning with a purpose and a plan to waking up and just hoping you can go back to sleep so you can put off facing another day alone. If you have someone that truly loves you and you love them hang on to it and cherish it because the next time you hear them say I love you may be the last time.

I fell in love with this song when I married in 1986. We played it and will be doing it for our renewal ceremony next year. It will be 30 years. Still have never heard any better.

One of the best songs they ever sang... But I grew up listening to the Statler Brothers. Today is my dad's Birthday, he has been gone for 4yrs now. I have his CD's and even my kids, love them!!! Their Papa taught them well... Just wish I could've fulfilled his dream of them singing at his funeral.... He was their Biggest Fan!!!!

I am a musician and this group is best there is in harmonizing and song choices. My husband's favorite group and had every record. We were married 48 years and I still think of him when I listen to them. Jimmie was a great addition.

A #1 hit for The Statler Brothers on the Country & Western charts. It was the 745th #1 C&W song of the Rock Era.

It feels like Nashville is not giving The Statlers the true respect they deserve. And I'm guessing that is because today's so-called Country Music and TRUE COUNTRY MUSIC (The Statler's and their generation) has changed so much and so dramatically that they are now almost two completely and distinctly different genre's of music.

In my humble opinion, I believe this is Jimmy's Best lead of All of the Class-act Statler Brothers songs that he was a part of. Not to take away from Any of the other "brothers", they were(are) All Great and phenomenal at harmonizing! I was blessed to have been able to see them in concert back in the 80's, and Harold was surely quite the clown and loved having a good time! Heaven has gained a Great Saint and jokester!

First saw these boys when they opened for Johnny Cash in a show in Columbia SC in the late 60's, while I was in the USAF stationed at Shaw AFB. Been singing along with them ever since. Just saw a rerun of their farewell show last Sat, night. Never be another group that will even come close!

My wife prayed after 20years that God would send her some one that would take care of her and love her. I tried not to let her down. I always had to constantly remind her,that she was my angel. That she saved me. This was her song to me..at our wedding. Don't really know what to say now.

I was lucky enough to be getting married ( 1985 ) when this song was hot. I was lucky too that the picky church singing group agreed to sing it. The rejected the other song I picked. LOL and my hubby was a groomzilla ( before there was a name for that ) I got to pick my dress one song and the match books and he picked everything else from the tux's to the cake to the venue etc. 31 years later we still doing okay ( I guess ) LOL. ty for post gb
