Zach Top - Kentucky Bluebird (Cover)

Keith Whitley's "Kentucky Bluebird" performed by Zach Top.
Lyrics:
Blown down the highway by two different winds
Lord only knows when I'll see you again
You're 'bout as close as the stars up above
You're my long distance love
Kentucky bluebird
I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you
You fly away
Blue is a feeling I'm learning so well
Turn on the TV in another hotel
Turn down the volume and stare at the wall
God I wish you would call
Kentucky bluebird
I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you
You fly away
How I hate the miles between us
They get longer each day
I had this dream and you should have seen us
Holding each other and drifting away
Kentucky bluebird
I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you
You fly away
Kentucky bluebird
I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you
You fly away
You fly away

Been playing music all my life. How absolutely refreshing to hear a young man like this, singing country from his soul. Let's me know that there is hope for real "Country Music" yet. Great job brother. Stay the coarse.

[@rossvinzant9902]

Keith Whitley would be proud

[@dustinvanfossen806]

Best Whitley cover I’ve heard in a long time. Keep it up man.

[@stephenbrowning2710]

Keith Whitley is my favorite singer. I never thought I’d hear anyone cover that song that I would like as much as Keith’s version but you nailed it.

[@ricksoete3973]

Keith would be really proud of Zach! This blew me away! Keep it Country! 🔥

[@truelight.parsoncharlie]

Zach, God has gifted you with an amazing voice, it is so expressive. Great guitar pickin' too. I think it's awesome a young man like yourself is playing real traditional country music. Keep up the great work and play something from Alan Jackson if you don't mind. Thank you for sharing your God given talents.

[@Cowboyninja70]

Agree!

[@StatisticallyScrewed]

Keep bringin Keith back young man. What a classy and well presented rendition of a classic. You have a future son.

Been a Keith Whitley fan for a long time. Son, you got it covered. Anybody can hear this and go back home. Keep it up. Real,no studio All heart. Take care young man,keep it up.

[@garyshivers]

Great job friend. When I found out Keith died, I was headed to work, said a prayer and went into work. I remember the time,date and where I was. Great job on that song. Thank you.

[@anthonyperkins389]

[@williamstanton4422]

The only thing missing here is a thundering applause at the end.

[@kristenstone1721]

You’re a breath of fresh air. I’ve missed someone that could sing with just the right twang and the right voice. Maybe a little Tracy Lawerence next?

[@dilly84]

I've been listening to this for a year and I've came to a conclusion on this song. It's not only better than Keith's, you blow him clean out the arena. Now, keith is still king but on this one, it's not close. You're better bud

[@dakotaraines5451]

[@gracielovemusic]

You have me in tears. I had just listened to Keith sing it and then I hear your stripped down version. I got chills.

[@forrestmanueljr9196]

[@cody5548]

This is absolutely wonderful. Very, very good job my friend. Love this song

[@curtisadams6114]

Don't know how I'm just finding this, but damn it son! My favorite Keith Whitley song, I ve heard a lot folks do it, but never heard it covered that good, I mean with the perfect lil breath details Whitley done, plus put yourself in at as well! Seriously the best Whitley cover I ever heard, along with Josh Ward covering " Between an Old memory and me"! The next superstar for sure, best of luck to you, hell I'm fan as of right freaking now.

[@CodyJacobCamacho]

Zach, I just want to thank you for inspiring me to work harder at becoming a better singer. I’ve always thought volume was everything and I lacked control and dynamics. I never did vocal warm ups / exercises before but now I do them every morning on my commute to work and on my way home. I want to sing as elegantly as you do it’s truly inspiring brother! I’m also proud that you’re from Eastern Washington as well I’m from Moses Lake haha! My favorite song off the new record is definitely “I Never Lie” gonna try my hardest to see you at watershed this year at the gorge!

[@timmullins4441]

Keep on my friend. I look forward to everything you do. Gives me the chills and that's hard to find for me!

[@logancassell731]

Dude, you heal my soul.

[@michaeltabors2193]

[@tomeweum]

Wow! Nice pickin, & what a voice!! :-) I`m blown away

[@user-ls9nm9uy5s]

Son you have all the Country swagger and passion in you guitar picking and singing that a lucky man needs. You got a little Randy Travis vibe and others going, but it is still you singing and playing. Thanks for sharing your Music ! Well done. Keep Twanging ! Best wishes from America's Dairyland Wi. !
