What an amazing singer/songwriter. I can't listen to "Even Though I'm Leaving" without tearing up every single time.

[@mustaine1981]

TheMatFratRealityTV EVERY single time. 👍🏼

[@joeski1073]

My dad recently passed away and I listen to that shit everyday now

[@jeffbecker4488]

Compared to who?

[@georgekershaw2828]

Same here

[@brettd.burlon7086]

I'm not a big fan of country, but this song is one of my new favorites! The first verse hits me because my 5 year old has issues with me leaving for work, especially if I would have to spend the night, the second verse hit home because I'm a veteran and dealt with that when I deployed to Iraq, and the third verse hits me because it makes me think of my dad, who hasn't past away, but I'd he did! I'm 47 and have yet to be able to get through the song, whether listening or singing, without crying!!! It's a new favorite

[@joeschmo9838]

First time I hear this on the radio was shortly after my Dad passed away, had to pull over it hit hard. Still listen to it daily as a reminder he's always gonna be with me and have come to find happiness in this song :)

[@floursandroses]

Luke is one of my favorite country singers. He seems like he is such a down to earth guy. If I am listening to any one of his songs, my radio is all the way up. Talent is talent, you have it or you don't. Luke has it.

[@michaelrodgers6592]

Luke is so fake he'll run and tuck tail as soon as the woke mob comes at him again just like last time

[@cin_x5579]

This interviewer kept a smile on my face the entire time! Haha super chill interview I love it! Great job!

[@rogerjosephholder1320]

My Son left for the Army last year after giving up on college. I felt guilty because I thought he was doing it just because I served. He has always been my Hero and I miss him last crazy. This song makes me cry my eyes out but makes me proud of him.

[@nicholousrogers2774]

Luke is so down to earth and genuine hell of a nice guy keep rolling bro

[@michaelrodgers6592]

Luke is so fake he'll run and tuck tail as soon as the woke mob comes at him again just like last time

[@danawilliams6231]

After losing dad, in 2003...that last verse gets me too. I lost them 4 months apart to cancer, 49 and 63 then

[@jessw6296]

'Even though I'm leaving' makes me cry every friggin time

[@dawnhartwell8117]

Luke Combs, it’s the first step in the rest of your lives together, as a couple. You should be involved and I’m so happy for you both.

[@teresadendy2776]

Thank you Jon for being kind and understanding

[@brandonnodine6934]

Just found this show, love it, love his music too! Great job!

[@jennifersandoval2977]

He is so humble and down to earth

[@MichaelLloyd]

Good show man. This is the first time I've watched the channel. Anything with Luke Combs and Eric Church is going to grab all of my attention.

[@TraciBGood]

Great interview !! Love Luke !! Got my Crocs today too !!

[@jeffrey.a.hanson]

What a talent. Would love to see Him and Church collaborate on songwriting. He’s got that pop sensibility with huge vocals and Eric’s got more of that Fogerty style rock sound.

[@bubbaluvv]

they did and he betrayed Upchurch

[@navajoshine2353]

Upchurch is a legend doing it all without major record labels. #RHEC

Love, Love, Love Luke Combs! 🎶♥️🎶

[@timgreen2426]

Never heard any of his music, where do you suggest I start?

[@Brandon5161]

Tim Green Start with Hurricane and One number away. Then start listening to his beer never broke your heart album and then you’re on your way homie. This is exactly what I did.

[@johndoegeheimfuhrer91]

Thank you for better together. Its playing at my wedding

[@timicus2]

I had a very similar reaction to “Even Though I’m Leaving”. It came out just under a year after my dad passed away. I was in my car the first time I heard it and had to pull over for a few minutes.

[@courtneyhogan790]

Thank you for that song Luke it really helped me out my dad

[@roosteroriginal6458]

Eric and Luke are some of the best ever!

[@mattshutta]

I don't think he does a bad one! I saw him on his birthday this year in Worcester, MA and the show was incredible; loudest crowd I've heard at a show! I'd have to say his performance of "This One's For You" at that show was out of this world. Obviously it was his birthday, and I believe he just got a few more number 1's that week as well so he seemed genuinely emotional. I just saw him at Mohegan in Uncasville, CT last week, and the same song stands out to me too. He just got 2 wins at the CMA awards and again, seemed to pour his emotions out in the song.

[@yuanittal9609]

Love all his songs... Love to see him in concert especially cause would be my first concert!!!!

[@fatashreviews5670]

And last

[@silverdollar7594]

Eric Church use to work at Kellogg's in Rome, Georgia. He would tell co workers in the break room that one day he'd make it to Nashville as a country star. Everyone would laugh at what he was sayin, but he told us right! He's an Outstanding Country Musician

[@silverdollar7594]

@countrygirl countrymusiclover1127 Hold your breath until I fix it

One of the best new artists out there. The same...

[@marlahuber9284]

Thank God Luke is a REAL MAN, He is being Himself and So Is his Wife! So thankful for REAL people Still being Our Country People!!! :-)

[@joshmercado2738]

Ya even though I'm leaving hits me too

[@BlazeGuitarLessons]

Song almost makes me tear up every time!

[@kimmerrill2870]

The first time I heard it and he started the course I had to pull over cause I was balling !! And as a side note my embarrassing celeb moment would have been meeting Luke at CMA fest . I was so excited that when we took our picture I squeezed his love handles 😬 I was so embarrassed I left and didn’t get him to sign my CD 😢

[@calasmackcalahan9046]

What an absolute stud! That 12 minutes flew by way too fast! One guy I would love to sit down and have a cold one with and listen to some tunes!
