Keith Whitley’s legacy loomed large over the country music
landscape of the '90s. A talented new country singer and
songwriter, Whitley was just beginning to emerge as a
superstar at the time of his death in 1989.

child, winning a talent contest at the age of four. When he
was eight years old he learned how to play guitar and
within a year he was singing on a Charleston, WV based
radio station. Whitley formed his first band at the age of
13, playing nothing but straight bluegrass.

A few years later, he formed The Lonesome Mountain Boys

    Review about Keith Whitley

    An amazing song! | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song When You Say Nothing at All performed by Keith Whitley

    I absolutely love this song. This is my boyfriend's and my song. It totally fits us and how much we understand each other without even saying a word. When I first heard it I was in the car with my boyfriend, and we just listened to it quietly. When it was finally finished we decided that we both loved it so much that it would become our song! Whenever I hear it playing on the radio it instantly reminds me how much I love him!

    Keith was the best singer in the 80's. If he were still alive he would be the best now. I loved all of his songs. I wish he were still alive.

    this song makes me cry! | Reviewer: sheena
        ------ About the song When You Say Nothing at All performed by Keith Whitley

    everytime i hear this song i cry...it is such a touching song...i remember the day my boyfriend told me he loved me for the 1st time...we were in the car just him and me, we were talking and he told me he was falling for me, ironically enough right after he said that the song when you say nothing at all by Keith Whitley came on. I started crying. We were so "IN LOVE" at that very moment. The weird thing was that he DOES NOT listen to country music AT ALL and we heard this song! So this is our song...oh and later that night we stoped to eat at a nice resturant and he told me he loved me over dinner it was so romantic and he so isn't romantic but that day everything happend the right way for a reason! I LOVE YOU JERRY =D AND IF AND WHEN WE GET MARRIED THIS SONG WILL BE PLAYED AT OUR WEDDING!!


    Love is a feeling. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song When You Say Nothing at All performed by Keith Whitley

    Love is a feeling; it can't be proven with spoken words. Sight is not reliable to find love, sight does not work in the dark. Words too often lead to argument and beauty is only skin deep; good deeds, a soft touch and a smile are all that are needed to convey love.


    what he was? | Reviewer: Tamra
        ------ About artist/band Keith Whitley

    I feel that Keith Whitley was a instrumental part in 80's and 90's country...He was a great mix of the Bluegrass, and the Twangy Country, Which made a great mix for the new 90's country... That was great drinkin music! Yeah he was an alcholic but that did not interfer in his abilities as a musician/song writer... He was TRUE Honkey Tonk... a lot of NEW country music has forgoten what that is all about.

    I think its the best song ever and i think you sould play it on 600am cuz ill e leasoning to that all the time anyways ur the best lmoa


    A small change to the lyrics | Reviewer: Dan Maher
        ------ About the song 'Til a Tear Becomes a Rose performed by Keith Whitley

    Instead of "no dream can put as under" change to "no dream can put asunder" which is probably what the lyric writer intended, asunder which means to put under something, generally an emotion or even a physical thing. Just my opinion.


    About Keith Whitley... | Reviewer: Daniel
        ------ About the song Don't Close Your Eyes performed by Keith Whitley

    Bob McDill wrote this song 'Don't Close Your Eyes.'
    Keith Whitley made the song his.
    He is a legend and will never die.
    If you want something that he wrote and a song that sums up his music, his life, and his passion, listen to 'Wherever You Are Tonight.'
    Keith Whitley could have been the best ever, and was in my opinion for the time that he was here...thanx Keith for your love of music.

        ------ About the song Don't Close Your Eyes performed by Keith Whitley

    last night at a local karaoke show I was introduced to the author of this song. He
    wrote it when he was just 16 years old
    His first name is Eric and he still enjoys writing and performing this tune on a regular basis

    Don't close your eyes | Reviewer: Helen A
        ------ About the song Don't Close Your Eyes performed by Keith Whitley

    Keith Whitley had a voice that simply does not come along very often, maybe ever 50 years. George Jones had a song out called There's nothing better once you've had the best. Well Keith Whitley was the best in the 1980's & no one has even come close to his voice & it is now 2007, what a tribute & legend this sweet souls voice really was. Iam so fortunate to have lived in this time to hear him. He is truly missed by me.
