I did not appreciate or understand Country music when I was a child, I love all of it now . there is a sincerity , precision and just pure talent in it.. but this man Wow!! what a voice .. Yoda ling is a talent , his range is no less than phenomenal and he probably inspired many in music ..Like Roy Orbison , think of it ..Slim was no less than incredible now that I watch him , and I believe that Kaufman really saw the talent there , he seemed to be enamored with him ..after all , who couldn't .. I saw Slim on Johnny Carson and saw the human he was there , Carson had a great respect for him ans Slim talked about how he knew to some he was joke and that must have hurt I cannot imagine , he should not had to feel that pain of mockery.. Slim Whitman , You are awesome to me ..sing in heaven with that Heavenly voice we love you !!!!

I have often cried when I hear this song. It always gets to me. It is, for me, the ultimate song for a man to sing to his greatest love. Like the funeral scene in "Out of Africa." Or some poetry, like this one by Jim Morrison: "Astonishing vision. A gray film melts off the eyes and runs down the cheeks. Farewell." (Haiku further compressed, he would say)
