Seems like so many people treat him like an up and coming country music star, but he was already famous in the 90's for Hootie and the Blowfish. Maybe you have to be "old" to know that? I dunno. Hootie fans, where you at?
My husband is that one person who knows my secrets, my darkest places, and he loves me anyway. I am truly blessed!
I could hardly bear to listen to this song when I first encountered it. It pricks vulnerability in a way both painful, yet healing. Definitely one of the great songs sung by one of the greatest performers out there today.
This song hit me pretty deep. Made me think of my past. Darius Rucker is the man. Love his music. 💪
Darius gives me so much pride! To see a black man sing country music like this! Music, like mathematics truly is a universal language. It transcends race, language, borders, cultures. We are all one through music with the same hopes, dreams, and fears. Thank you Darius, love, love, love your music. It's therapy for me. 🥰 Many greetings from Kenya.
I never thought I would follow you on a journey starting with Hootie and the Blowfish to now, but here we are. I’m in awe of the clarity of your voice. Please keep up the stellar work.
This song got me through a very, very tough time...halfway house after 3 months rehab. 4 years sober. Thank you.
This is one of the most Beautiful songs Darius sings! What a voice! The words are so meaningful, he puts himself into every song he sings.
This song is so beautiful, I absolutely feel every lyric. His voice is phenomenal
NEVER HAVE I EVER HAD A SONG tell a story about me in whole !!! GREAT LYRICS !!!
“If I told you the mess that I can be when there’s no one there to see. Could you look the other way? Could you love me anyway?” Hits so close to home.
This song digs deep into your soul. Talks about the baggage we all carry
One of the most underrated male singers to have been in country music.
I cried on this one !!!! Isn't that what we all want? Love unconditionally ❤
He is so amazing in every way...his voice is phenomenal! Could listen to him all day!
This is the MOST honest song I have ever heard, in my 57 years of walking this planet! BRAVO!!!
Love, love his voice!!! Great performer!! So glad I found him since Hootie and the Bluefish. 😊❤😊
He is an amazing diverse artist with an impeccable voice. Truly unique. I admire his strength and determination. Amazing in concert. Sometimes, when people walk away, it's a blessing in disguise. Eventually, the right one will walk into your life when the time is right .
Why why whyyyy is he so under rated???? His voice is AMAZING I am happy he was in the forever country video
This has become one of my all-time favorite songs. Absolutely beautiful.
