This video makes me kind of sad. Not because of the song, but realizing all the great singers are gone and no one to replace them. Todays music sucks.

Good video & song Done by one great artist,altho many who helped make the Opry popular were left out,If the management disagreed with an artist it showed & lasted a lifetime, example Hank SR. Webb Pierce Faron Young Three of the most popular artist ever not mentioned at all

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE The building that we know today as the Ryman Auditorium actually opened in 1892 as the Union Gospel Tabernacle. It was the work of a man named Captain Tom Ryman, a steamboat captain and hellraiser who was known for his hard drinking and carousing on the Cumberland, Ohio and Mississippi Rivers.

One day, however, Captain Ryman found God and after hearing an evangelist speak, decided to give up his old ways and soon banned liquor and gambling on his steamboats and closed down a tavern that he owned in Nashville. He also began a project that would be dedicated solely to religious revivals and activities.

Back on 23 April 2005, I was so priviledge to stand on this very stage and sang two songs Little Brown Church and Going Up Home To Green Pastures. Sitting on the bench looking at the stage with a volunteer there, it was such a welcoming feeling. I miss so many singers that have once walked this Stage. I am so happy for those who have or about to walk the stage of this wonderful Stage at the Ryman. Best Wishes LittleCountryDJ

God please continue to Bless Country music. We have lost so many great singers and a lot of the newer stars are borderline country/easy rock. Don't let them cross over.
