[@IaneHowe]

He’s one of the sweetest singer and extremely talented in a non pretentious way. Just pure talent.

[@emilywickler8871]

He's been overlooked in the spotlight of music honors. He totally deserves this one!

[@susanaustin8682]

Exactly

[@jawndough6265]

Amen sister...

[@Shamilt3]

Vince is an absolute gentleman and a true hero of music.

[@kristinhernandez8946]

In my opinion, you can’t get any better than Vince. Not only as a musician, but more importantly as a human being. ❤️🙌🏻

[@michaellockhart554]

Absolutely lives the words he wrote in The Key To Life

[@jeffreyadams207]

Your so right! Wow! To be that good! It always amazes me how someone can shine like that!

[@tatalydia3544]

I love everything about Vince, I loved all the sounds and lyrics of his songs before I got to know who sang them. The songs lead me to the singer.👍👏👏👏🤗

[@Hamigal]

An angel in a musician and mans body. Love and adore you Vince Gill.

[@victoriarachelle89]

A true legend, non other as humble as Vince, what a beautiful person inside/out.

[@joerobinson2538]

I was gonna say the same about him being humble and just an awesome person!

[@victoriarachelle89]

[@lindylindybasicoceangirl]

…this humble talented man has all my respect admiration 🤍

[@jonnyreidmusic]

One of the finest to ever do it Mr Vince Gill!

[@lindylindybasicoceangirl]

…this man makes me cry…in a good vibe/pure kind of way…he is so talented but respectful of all those around him…

[@docd-monik4380]

If anyone deserves it, it's Vince. The man is one of the greatest musicians of this lifetime. Insanely talented vocalist, with the superpower of making others sound even better just by singing backup harmony behind them. Probably the greatest harmony backup of all time, in fact. Not to mention he's a beast on any instrument he picks up, and a helluva songwriter too. This planet don't deserve him.

[@nikkienikkie4310]

Known among his peers and the Nashville community as truly one of the kindest people in the music business.

[@maryperrysmith5815]

Vince I love you thank you. Mm four your songs

[@JustenHarden]

This man changed my life and outlook on music. Forever a legend!

[@louiseasaffl7708]

Vince Gill. A most talented and humble man.

[@marysmith9361]

Vince has the most wonderful voice. Have all his albums that I listen to every day.

[@lindacurtis1872]

Vince Gill you are my Hero! Thank you for writing and singing Go Rest High on that Mountain I was a fan way before that but when that song came out I had a still born son then seven short months later I gave birth to extremely premature twins a boy and a girl sadly the boy passed away at five days old. We played Go rest high on that Mountain at both of my sweet baby boys funerals! Thank you for helping me through some very very dark days with you beautiful voice and song!❤️

[@1coopjsn]

What a well spoken, humble and talented person he is.

[@yvonnegill1382]

Vince I want to admit to you that I love your music and have often called you cousin Vince and I say that with pride and love. Sincerely Yvonne Marie Koski Gill.

[@honkytonkwoman69]

Love love love Vince and Amy! Thank you for sharing your gifts with all of us.

[@honkytonkwoman69]

And lots of love to the amazing band.

[@justme314.]

Love this man, has music and heart. He is an amazing example to so many and shares what he has learned with others. I saw him for the first time before he became a hit at a small town festival and have followed his career since that day. He is an amazing legendary, singer, songwriter and performer.

[@TomBice]

My favorite song that Vince Gill wrote and sang is "Whenever You Come Around." He is a great singer, songwriter, and plays a mean guitar. He is a great musician and person. His music has withstood the test of time. Amy Grant is a very loving, kind and caring human being, and a great musician in her own rights. I met her in Fort Worth Texas and that is when I found out she had married Vince Gill. I am happy for both of them. We are praying for her full recovery from her accident.

[@mr.b3132]

Stapletons cover of that song was amazing.....

[@barbarawengert4460]

I totally agree that vince gill is the greatest.

[@pamfrank3962]

A true Legend. Congratulations 👏

Love love love Vince Gill! His song - Go Rest High On That Mountain - helped me during one of the darkest times in my life when I lost my son. He's a wonderful person!

[@cc-hk5ih]

Hello Vince from Ireland. You are an absolute unique giant of country music. Have loved your music since the late 80s. Saw you in killarney 9 years ago. I cried. No one can sing a love song like you in my opinion. Your songs have been the soundtracks to many milestones in my life. Say hello gave me the courage to ask a guy out. When I call your name I played over and over when I lost my sister too soon to cancer. Look at us summed up my parents glorious marriage and was listed in their 50th anniversary booklet I did for them. They were married tge year you were born. In times of joy and sadness you were listened to. And now having lost those beautiful parents dad 2 years ago mum this year. Look at us was mentioned at Dad's funeral by my brother. I had to watch at home with my heartbroken mum. I'm listening to you again . love changes everything... And wondering which brigde to cross and which bridge to burn as I carry on with life alone. Thank you for the music and the words that say everything that this heart would love to be able to say. God rest high on that mountain to all those who passed during covid and their families who survive them. Music is indeed balm for the sou.l Vinces music is sublime. Thank you Vince.

[@tombeyer375]

Here's Vince, being honored for his efforts, giving credit to everyone else, humility at its finest. Just love this guy and his love for mankind!

[@user-ox7lx6yi7i]

A class act. He is a true gentlemen and a true talent in everyway. He gives of himself to so many others. Especially new and upcoming musicians. You are the greatest in my book Vince. And I will always be greatful to have met you and the time you took with my son Tony and others in a little talent contest that many would have just blown off. You and Amy are the best in my book. Congrats on the tribute. It is well deserved.

[@gunsgeargodandcountry6609]

Amazing artist but even more amazing human being that is just genuine and pure to the heart and that connects and resonates with all people from all walks of life. You can tell he is not a very smart man just the way he speaks and his actual connection with everyone in that room. Much love and respect to you sir.

Vince gill I thank you sir ! I was born in 1989 in London and raised on country music you have been a big part of my life ! I turned 33 today and am desperate to sing country music and you Garth Brooks Alan Jackson George strait etc have inspired me ! Embrace the recognition because you deserve it and thank you x

[@Gratefulman1965]

Been a fan of Vince Since the Pure prairie league days. I still remember your early solo tracks like Oklahoma borderline and Everybody’s sweetheart. I think the ladder of the two is what really broke you on country radio. When George Jones gives you a nickname like “Sweet pea” you know you’re on. The right track. Congratulations Vince, You deserve it!

[@rstats2127]

A true gentleman and musician

[@terricunningham6810]

he has had an amazing career..started out with pure prairie league.. from what I remember...and now being an eagle

[@carisbrookefinefurniturean5653]

I saw him back in the 90's. MAN can that guy play and sing.

[@joebowers3636]

I was in Rudy's guitar shop in New York City in 2018, and Vince Gill walked in. I figured I'd never get the chance to meet him again, so I introduced myself and told him I loved his music. He immediately asked me how I was doing and asked what I was up to, like he was settling into a conversation. I told him I was going to see Tedeschi Trucks Band that night, and we talked about how great Derek Trucks is. I felt bad for taking up his time, so I thanked him again and left. The whole interaction was probably about 90 seconds. But you could tell that he made a decision that, if someone wants to meet him and thank him, he gives them his attention and treats them with respect. That was a great lesson for me, and a fun memory I'll always have.

[@victorb6293]

Great story Joe - shows what a humble and genuine person Vince is. Thanks for sharing.

[@Linda-fe7jo]

I love me some Vince. True giants don't mind stepping back and letting others shine. Vince, Whitney, Reba, and Patti just to name a few.

In my opinion, Vince gill is the most talented, artist that i have ever heard. I'm 65 years old so i have listened to a few. Lol. I worked for jimmy leake for few years. You know, channel 8 tulsa jimmy leake. I was so blessed to have had known him. For that short time. One of his best sayings was "your the best thing since sliced bread." That really said it all. I'm so proud to be an okie, its talent like yours, and really all the okie artists that shows outsiders, bein cornbread fed and sittin on the front porch with family makin memories and sometimes music, is a good thing. Remember "deliverance" was just a movie. Ha. 13:05
