"Make You Feel My Love" Covers

When I think of this love song I usually think of Garth Brooks' version. But today I listened to a few different covers that give Mr. Brooks a run for his money. Which cover is your favorite? Does this song make you think of anyone special?

Mick McAuley & Winifred Horan- I listened to this cover for the first time today and really enjoyed their voices together.


Adele- She is one of my favorite female artists. I love this cover!


Kris Allen- I'm not too familiar with this guy but I gather he is from American Idol. Regardless I liked his cover.


James David Carter- I found this guy's cover on Youtube. He's pretty good! I think he is trying to make a name for himself. He is pretty talented. I wish him the best.


"I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling
Down the avenue
No, there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love"

Ronnie Dunn- We All Bleed Red

I turn up the volume every time I hear this song playing on the radio. When you listen to this song take the time to let all the lyrics wash over you. This song is really powerful!


"We're all the same
We all bleed red"

Remember this song when you meet someone that is a little bit different than yourself. What did this song make you think about?

Randy Rogers Band-One More Goodbye



"How 'bout one more goodbye
Play with fire just one more time
let it burn til morning light
and let it fade away
girl, we dont even have to pretend
we ain't going back to where we've been
We both know it's not worth another try
But how 'bout one more goodbye"

Have you ever had to say goodbye to someone you were intimate with? How did you handle saying goodbye?

Brett Dennen- Ain't No Reason

I've seen this video online a few times. The part that really gets to me is the little boy sitting holding his knees at the table while the family eats. Gives me goosebumps!



‎"There Ain't no reason things are this way.
It's how they always been and they intend to stay
...Love will come set me free"

What did this song make you think about? Do you think things will change? Do you believe that love will set us free?

Fleetwood Mac- Dreams

One of my all-time favorite female vocalists is Stevie Nicks. Who are some of your favorite female singers?



"Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
They say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You'll know"

What are you hopes and dreams?

Jason Aldean & Kelly Clarkson- Don't You Wanna Stay

Turn off the ringer; turn off the TV; get off the computer; and hold your lover tonight!



"Don't you wanna stay here a little while,
Don't you wanna hold each other tight,
Don't you wanna fall asleep with me tonight,
Don't you wanna stay here a little while,
We can make forever feel this way,
Don't you wanna stay"

Bob Seger-Travelin Man/Beautiful Loser

I've had Travelin Man stuck in my head all day. The music gods must of known I needed a Bob Seger fix!



"Travelin' man, love when I can
Turn in my hand 'cause I'm goin' on
Oh, travelin' man, love when I can
But sooner or later I'm goin' on, yea
Travelin man"

What song do you have stuck in your head?

Rascal Flatts- I Won't Let Go

Isn't this what we all want? Someone who will be there for us no matter what. Is there someone you would be there for?



"Cause I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you’ve done all you can do
And you can’t cope
And I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I wont let go
Oh I’m gonna hold you
And I wont let go
Wont let you go
No I wont"

Rolling Stones- Wild Horses

I've really developed an appreciation for The Rolling Stones over the last year. This is one of my favorites.



"Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady, you know HOW I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you've decided to show me the same
But no sweet, vain exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom, but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living after love dies
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day"

Sometimes we need to be there unconditionally.  Do you feel unconditionally loved?  Are you there for someone unconditionally?

Eli Young Band- Crazy Girl

Heard this song last night and instantly fell in love with the lyrics. Have you told your special someone lately how much they mean to you?

Crazy Girl


"Baby why you wanna cry?
You really oughta know that I
Just have to walk away sometimes
We’re gonna do what lovers do
We’re gonna have a fight or two
But I ain’t ever changin’ my mind

Crazy girl, don’t you know that I love you?
And I wouldn’t dream of goin’ nowhere
Silly woman, come here, let me hold you
Have I told you lately?
I love you like crazy, girl"
