George Jones: He Stopped Loving Her Today
The golden, mournful voice of George Jones singing one of his most memorable songs, He Stopped Loving Her Today. There’s nothing like the delicious subtlety of George Jones’ singing. Simple melodies sung in such a complex way that there’s something almost uncanny about them.
This song is really very sad. I used to dislike George Jones because I’d heard he was a mean drunk, and who could be mean to Tammy Wynette? But he’s a quite good and soulful and sincere singer, and if you’re in the right mood this song will choke you up like none other.
