People have probably already mentioned: this was the #1 Country Song of the Year 1971. Folks, this song is a massive triumph of songwriting. Lyrics like these, with this melody, don't exactly grow on trees. Hats off to Freddie. He sang it, AND wrote it:)

I love this song so much. My brother, Jimmy Don, danced with me to this not long before he passed away with brain tumor. He was only 39. Thanks for sharing this on youtube makeminecountry2. :)

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever made. Freddie not only sang it so beautifully, but composed the music & wrote the lyrics. It was declared Song of the Year in 1971 & 1972 by The CMA. Freddie was named Top Male Vocalist & Entertainer of the Year at the 1972 Academy of Country Music Awards. He quickly had 5 more #1 hits. The Nashville music tycoons, who are legitimately cussed at for the county music of today, finally noticed that this Alabama man was a great singer & songwriter.Amen.

Wow, this brings back wonderful memories to a 69 yr old grandma. I wasn't allowed to dance as a teenager, after marriage my husband would only slow dance, and when that 6'5" Okie in his Sgt.'s uniform took me around the floor to this I melted. Agent Orange finally took him from me in 2011, and do I ever miss him and songs like this.

We had Freddie Hart at our Texas Opry Theater back in 2004 in Weatherford, Tx. He is truly one of the finest gentlemen in the music business period. A delight to work with and to be around. When I picked him up at DFW airport there was mistaking him when he walked out of the door. The first thing he said to me was "Bless Your Heart, Darlin'". That is a memory I will always treasure.

Freddie toured West Germany in 1979 ... my Dad's band backed him ... after Freddie sang, my Dad did his normal set, including "Easy Loving" ... people were amazed when Haskell Foster and Country Cooking did just as good a rendition as Freddie! Dad said Freddie couldn't have been any more generous to a bunch of unknown Army musicians.

The original recording of this fantastic Freddie Hart song crossed over to the pop chart and reached #17 on Billboard.

Hank Sr, Webb Pierce, Faron Young, Edy Arnold, Ray price, Ernie Tubb, Hank Snow, Carl Smith, Kitty Wells, Jim Reeves, Jean Shepard and all of the others who made the 40's, 50's and 60's the golden years of Country Music.

If there were a definitive ," ALL-TIME" greatest singles list-irrespective of the length or longevity of the artist's career,..for whatever the reason...Hart's Easy Loving has to rank as one of the finest songs in the entire history of Country music.
