Craig is an Afgan War Veteran, a Songwriter, A Vocalist, a Christian. What I Love About Sunday’s Almost Home This Ain’t Nothing

[@robinmcintyre3472]

"Almost Home" really touches my heart.. always been one of my favorites of Craig's!

[@gears101]

Did not serve in Afghanistan. Stationed in South Korea and then in a battle in Panama but not Afghanistan

[@JenniferH5155]

That was the first time he sang the song in public. He wasn't going to record and release it. But Bluegrass and Country legend Ricky Scaggs told him that he absolutely had to, that people needed to hear it. Few weeks later, he released it as a single, and with the help of fellow artists like Blake Shelton, it went to #1. It's helped countless people struggling with grief and loss.

[@DelaLee-os8yr]

The first time he sang it in public was on the Kelly Clarkson Show...

[@JenniferH5155]

@@DelaLee-os8yr No, that performance was after it was released on ITunes. A lot of his fellow artists were promoting the song for it to hit #1. Craig tells the story in the interview with Kelly Clarkson about how he was encouraged to release the song.

[@eileenbaran7040]

Absolutely true

[@erinhopkins5956]

The Kelly Clarkson show version gave more emotion at the end of the song. Mr. Morgan is an amazing singer, a veteran, an actor...just a talented man!

[@christienegrete7616]

Beautiful reaction. Thank you. Craig's son was 19 yrs old when he passed away in a boating accident. This was his 1st time singing the song Live. When he walked backstage he said he would never do that again. Blake Shelton helped him to get through and he sang it for the 2nd time on Kelly Clarkson Show. He's been signing it since.

[@rosemariediamond5948]

I understand how he feels because I lost my son when was 21. The meaning of your life disappears. It is devastating. This song touches my soul. He has a lot of courage to write and sing this song

Does it ever get any easier?

Blake was at #1 on I-tunes at the time. He went on a mission to get people to not buy his song and move Craig to #1. That's a true friend ❤

[@Almaintx]

His pain really shows when he sings this song he wrote.

[@Almaintx]

Yes, he lost his son 3-4 years ago in a drowning accident. He has had a hard time finding his way out of his darkness and depression and pain of losing his son.

[@amberburris5674]

Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. I always loved Craig Morgan growing up and when this happened it broke my heart!

[@stevepoitras2802]

You nailed it, he is going through the stages of grief, ambition is low, he is mourning the lose but his faith reassures him that he will be with his son again this is the hope he clings to in order to get through the day.

[@cnicole5065]

When Craig walked off stage he told Blake Shelton he'd never sing it again because it was too hard. Blake told him he had to because people needed it. So, he made a video for it and still performs it. Rest In Peace Jerry Greer Craig Morgan (Greer) and Karen's son. Craig uses his 1st and middle name professionally.

[@soniac8532]

Actually it was Ricky Skaggs who told Craig he had to record it. Blake did help Craig as their great friends too

[@cnicole5065]

@Sonia C I know Ricky told him to record it I was referring to Blake telling him he had to perform it and Blake campaigned on Twitter saying he'd gladly give up his place on the charts for Craig and this song because people needed to hear it. The Kelly Clarkson Show was only the 2nd time he performed it live. I could have worded my first comment differently.

[@katmit69]

Thank you for reacting to this, I've watched Craig for 20 years or more, I can remember the "Redneck Yacht Club" video where his son was happily jumping off his boat swimming, and the "Paradise" video where his son was maybe 4 or 5 years old....this man has suffered great loss and lived through to the other side. Great reaction. ❤

[@TexasPicklz]

Few artists in any genre are as full and rich, on key and on point, live as they are on a record. Great reaction.

How he was able to sing that is amazing. I read that he said after he sang it at the Opry that he’d never sing it again. He wrote it about his son that passed away.

[@teamrealtree0073]

Me and my lost our son in 2004 by a drunk driver. It still hurts today something you'll never forget just got to keep pushing and living. That's what they would want but dam is it hard beautiful song.

Such a Deeply Powerful Moving Song and Performed With So Much Emotion and Pain. Great reaction. Spot on. Takes a Man's Man to perform this like Mr. Morgan. Bless his family!

[@georgefisher1995]

As far as the voice, a beautiful mid range, with a full resonance and underlying gravel, perfect story telling and emotion grabber. As far as the song and message, ….. Wow, chills!

I lost my oldest daughter 9 years ago and every time I hear this it brings me to tears. Nothing worse than losing a child.

[@shellyjackson3887]

More Craig Morgan to check out "This Ain't Nothing", "I Was Almost Home" and a really feel good song "What I Love About Sundays!" Seeing Craig in concert is on my bucket list!! Powerful reaction to a powerful song!!

[@angelabennett-engele1977]

One if the best reactions to this song. I watch every single reaction I see on this one. It hits so deep for people. That particular performance is one that he did not want to do, and afterwards he said he wouldn't do it live again. I think he has since then, but man...how difficult that must be. I also read that the lyrics came to him one night and he got up and wrote them down. With the exception of a few minor words, the lyslrics sung today are the same ones he wrote down in one sitting, right after his son drowned. So terribly sad.

[@sarahcontento9516]

When he was younger he sang a song called " almost home." I love his songs.

[@cherylreel5826]

He wrote this song after he lost his son. It's so moving and it gets me in the heart 💔 every time I hear this.

[@mpec9405]

the line, "I cried and cried and cried and cried 'til I passed out on the floor," killed me!

[@gertexan]

Even the strongest man will fall to his knees in grief when losing a child. The pain is indescribable. I tear up every time I see this video.

[@GingerGuy93]

Craig Morgan is one of the most underrated musicians there is. He is one of the most talented and just incredible artists out there. He isn’t just a country music artist either he was a US Army Combat Medic 8 years, a firefighter for a moment and a deputy sheriff and a few other jobs as well. Craig Morgan is one of my favorite artists of all time. Go listen to his other songs and get ready to grab a few tissues for the water works! He is the epitome of an American Patriot and country music artist.

[@skygaming7266]

Coming from a father who lost his son. I cry everytime I hear this song. Your reaction hit the nail on the head!

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Love your reaction to this one. I saw him interviewed, he said performing this song takes all his energy and sometimes he can't do it.

He couldn't of done it without his faith, God help all those who have lost a kid, losing any loved one is tough enough but a kid is another level

Craig was in the army for about 10 years I think. That’s what he was talking about with Uncle Sam. Now that you’ve found him you should check out Almost Home.

[@moms2398]

He was going to perform this song once for the Opry and never again. Ricky Skaggs told him he had to release it because it would help so many people. Then Blake Shelton told Twitter to ignore his new release and download this song. This is part of Craig's healing from losing his 19 year old son in a boating accident. It hits hard for any of us who have lost a close family member.

[@mellissagolemon7310]

We lost my brother in April of the same year that he lost his son. It will be 7yrs on the 11th of this month. My daddy is doing good but my momma’s health has declined since my brother died. It’s like she gave up. She has good days and I will say she tries for me and daddy but she misses my brother so much.

[@lisaray9944]

We had this song played at our sons funeral 3 months after he sang this at the Opry . At the time I first heard this yes I was so very sad that he lost his son but didn’t know his pain . 3 months later we lost our son , I knew that pain you hear in his voice 3 years later I still feel this pain . Pray for all us parents that have lost our child or children . That pain never goes away …. We are lost souls roaming the earth trying to find a new normal that will never be .

I remember that feeling, when I lost my daughter, back in the mid-80s. It took me over 5 years to get out of that slump, and I can't tell you how much whiskey I drank in that time. I can't tell you how many relationships I lost due to that. It cost me my Naval career. It's not 30 plus years later, I found myself a good woman, who has blessed me with three more children. I heard it tell you the hardest thing to do is bury a child.

For 30 years after the loss of my only child..my 16 year old son..I was drifting hoping tomorrow would never come again...then one day God had me draw a picture..of my son...I couldn't look at his face though..so I drew him from the back looking at the pass between huge clouds in the distance... A couple of days later I felt different..then started looking forward to the coming days...and I realized what God was saying... "He's not there..at the moment of pain..he's here !...waiting for you..waiting to greet you"... God saved my sanity that day 8 years ago...🙏... 🌿🌿🌿
