Keith is very deserving to be in Country Music Hall Of Fame, Thanks to everyone who signed the petition.

He was absolutely the best singer to ever come outta Kentucky and my personal favorite song of his was "Miami, My Amy" (check it out on youtube.com if you are not familiar with him) I personally agree with what this petition says, and I think you might<br />agree, too. If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider signing yourself and tell everyone you know, let's get Keith in the Hall of Fame where he should have been years ago!!<br /><br />Thanks everyone!twintwo720https://www.blogger.com/profile/09727509101575556259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11442941.post-71285400993211759922009-03-26T13:23:00.000-05:002009-03-26T13:23:00.000-05:00Keith Whitley is and will always be a legend.

This humble man from Sandy Hook, KY had what Elvis had....stage presence and likeability. You wanted to "know" him and "listen" to him. Sure there are alot of country entertainers out there, and of course they are extremely talented, but no can touch him. He was Unique,Country to "the core"and True to his craft. The Voice, The Heart, The Magic. Keith Whitley. I miss him.<BR/><BR/>Chance MichaelsUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00903319505030333970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11442941.post-79456116387771932832008-11-14T17:31:00.000-06:002008-11-14T17:31:00.000-06:00I clearly remember first hearing Keith's song as I...I clearly remember first hearing Keith's song as I was riding in the car with my brother. The song "It Ain't Nothin" came on the radio. I had never heard of Keith Whitley before this. As the song was playing, I fell in love with it and said that I must get the name of this artist and go buy the album. Well, as soon as the song ended, the DJ came on and announced the name of the song and said: "the late, great, Keith Whitley." I said "Oh No! This artist is dead?" I then called the radio station as soon as I got home to confirm. The DJ told me the said truth, that Keith had died a few months previous from alcohol poisioning. I was so saddened to hear this news. <BR/><BR/>Keith had such a beautiful voice. I purchased his Greatest Hits in 1990 and Kentucky Blue Bird in 1991. My favorite from that album is "Somebody's Doing Me Right." I still listen to his songs to this very day. This was truly a loss, but his music lives on. There will never be another voice like his, one that comes from the heart. You can truly "feel" this man through his words.Lady Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15140424113166622415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11442941.post-45357039489211881902007-03-04T18:35:00.000-06:002007-03-04T18:35:00.000-06:00I do believe that Keith would be singing gospel ag...I do believe that Keith would be singing gospel again if he were here still. The man had an amazing voice that no one can forget, but if you carefully listen to him sing there is a pain inside that comes through his music, that is what made him the man he was and still is in the hearts of his true fans. God Bless You Keith Forever and Through Eternity. In your song "Who Will Sing For Me", we all still sing for YOU.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11442941.post-1147492374172816382006-05-12T22:52:00.000-05:002006-05-12T22:52:00.000-05:00Yes...Foxall.

The one time I didn't go to see the Grascals at the Station Inn last time they played, Joe brought her down.
