Walker Hayes - Craig

[@timthesheriff]

Walker, I met you years ago at a Duggar wedding (Jill and Derick). I was the Navy officer in uniform from Chattanooga. I’m so excited to see how God has been working in your life. Praise God for Craig! Praise God for Jesus Christ! I hope that someday our paths cross again here on earth, but, if they don’t, I look forward to our paths crossing in heaven so that I can hear how God worked in your life to save your soul. Bless you and your family, brother (how wonderful to be able to call you brother)! -Tim

That's cool, Sir. You're Super Cool for serving our country. Even more, you serve our Lord. I often think about the souls I'll see and have conversations with in Heaven. Moses, King David, the Disciples and Paul. "I can only imagine". I prayer I asked God to continue to Bless you. Thank you for your service.

[@RandelleSolomon]

This is true Christianity! Thank you, Craig, and all the other "Craig"s in the world, for exhibiting Christ's love.

I was in a vehicle accident a few weeks ago that should’ve take my life. It was so disastrous I thought everything was over. When you have someone looking out and basically saying “You need to be here” those words are something, spoken or not.What a way to tell a story. I’m a “Craig” (Craig Randal) myself and do the best I can with what I have.. named after my father, “Randal Craig.”

[@canadianmerlin8349]

Craig is actually the studio that signed him

[@trinitydurbin3965]

This song touches me because I have been there before. And a "Craig" came and helped me and my whole family. We finally had a place to call home. This song is beautiful. We can all be a Craig. The line: please do: somebody did this for me please let me do this for you" Lets all have that attitude. If someone has helped you, help someone every chance you get. If you agree like this comment.

[@PatriziaBella85]

This song touched my heart. My parents, siblings, and I had a family of Craigs that helped us move to the US (legally) after having survived communism in Europe. They paid for our airline tickets here, and helped get us started in our new life here. We will forever be grateful. I will never take my freedoms here for granted, and always try to pay it forward to those in need because I know what it's like to go without. God bless all the Craigs of the world!!

I just wanted to say thank you. I recently found your songs on KZbin and they really hit home for me. I struggled with a drug and alcohol addiction for 15 years starting when I was 13. I was sober 2 years without going to AA or a NA meeting and started wanting to use again then your song Craig showed up on KZbin and it stopped me in my tracks about using agian. Now I play that song atleast 3 times a day to keep me straight. Weather you realize it or not man your helping people through a difficult time even when they don't have the power to ask for help themselves. So from the bottom of my heart I want to say thank you. That song saved me my wife and 5 children from going down the road I stuggled so hard to get past on my own.

This song lead me to the story you & Craig wrote-Glad You’re Here. I told others about it. Next month on Oct. 11-our women’s group at church is doing a book review on it. When I listened to Craig- I had to get the book. It is a story of love & grace. I listen to your music while I’m doing my workout on my rowing machine. Would love to have you consider doing a concert at The State Farm Center in Champaign,Il. Thank you for your music.

[@jimfrankovich2339]

If this song doesn't hit you with a wave of emotion you are either stone cold or dead. I think we've all had a Craig in our lives. Maybe not to this extent but in some way someone has helped you out. Even if you didn't know it or see it. I believe that everyone should be a Craig. We are all I this together, like it or not, so let's make the best of it. Be kind to one another, help each other. Honestly when I do something for someone it makes me feel better. That's a double win yall, you and the person you helped. I believe that we have been blessed to have Mr. Hayes music in our lives. Especially right now at this time in our lives. With the tornado that hit us, us rebuilding, work being crazy, Covid BS , Biden BS and all of the other crap that's happening. We need the Fancy Like, Craig and other songs to keep us grounded, to keep us positive and happy. Honestly I could be having a crappy day, hear Fancy Like and I forget about the bad stuff. God bless Walker for that.

This song gives me hope and makes me cry every time I hear it. I have been bouncing from one couch to another for the last 3+ years because of the unsafe living environment around me. I am so blessed to have people that care enough about me to let me crash at their place when I need a safe place to stay. So blessed. And don’t tell me to call APS, I have and the lack of help has made me vow to do it on my own because I can’t handle the lack of concern right beside the uncertainty of each day. I know now that God has my back and always has!

Crying. He is so talented. He is an amazing vocalist and has his own style. I love it. I listened several more times, he is completely amazing. We missed out. Can he re release all of his music? Fancy Like brought most of us here, but damn he is talented. The vulnerability it took to write this song and sing it, is almost being stripped bare. He tells his story in a way that most wouldn't be brave enough to do. And Im not religious. But I live my life trying to be a Craig because I want to make the most out of my time here and that is helping people and animals. Ive certainly also been at points I would have needed a Craig, but have a wonderful sister. I think we can all make the choice to be a Craig everyday. Not always needs to be a huge gestor.

It's weird, because though this song doesn't sound country, it's one of the few non-country songs that I actually like. It sounds nice, it's laidback, and it sounds sincere. I appreciate the honesty of this song, and it's story for that matter, as well. I like other genres of music as well, like some 70s music for example, but for non-country songs branded as country songs, this is one of the few non-country songs branded as country songs, that I actually don't mind.
