True, it is supposed to be a happy song but the tempo and the wailing of the steel guitar lend itself to a sadder interpretation.

It was a very sad day when we lost Conway Twitty - Hello Darling to me was always his signature song. This version sung to Loretta Lynn will always stand out as a true classic.

my brother is in icu in lexington hospital. been there since early this past week. its not looking good for tommy. i am going to drive over in a little bit. it may be the last time i see him alive
perhaps the worlds greatest gamecock fan...led me into the path of gamecockism, among other things. i long thank the heavens my brother decided to go to usc rather than clemson...we lived on a farm & he was big snot in the future farmers of america, went to kansas city in high school on some national convention, but he had had more than enough of rural life
thus i likely became a gamecock not a tater.
i am going to think of many sad things so this thread is befitting my mood. he is 70. lived a hard life. played harder than most, his body now is about to give out on him, he has little left to fight for, not when you are in deep pain & things dont seem to be getting any better
so in the theme. 10cc a underappreciated band imho recorded this & it seems fitting to me & my bro....old wild men waiting for a miracle

10cc - Old wild men

Poignant ballad with great lyrics and guitar solo with the unique gizmo-guitar. Stereo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9E9p7i7mhEfmt=18

So sorry to hear of your brother's failing condition ... prayers are sent for him and for you and your family as well.
That we try to rationalize with cliches such as he's going to a better place does little to lessen the pain or the sadness you must be feeling. May you find solace and rejoice in all the good which he has brought and the happiness which he has shared.
May the arms of your God embrace you and your family and provide you comfort in your time of need.
Pax Domini sit semper vobiscum

Love the possum. Once heard an artist say that "if everyone could sing the way they wanted to, then they would all sound like George Jones."
Sister won't listen to Jones because of how depressing his music is.

Being that I am a man of constant sorrow, it seems only fitting that the song of the same name get tossed into the mix.
