I'm getting tired if the pedal steel but otherwise it's ok.

Funk 50. You have to remember. This is country music. They are known for using steel pedal. There's going to be a lot of that on Don's cd. I'm glad he's using it because to me. It will just be another country pop or country rock or whatever the country sound is today. This will probably be phase with the direction country going right now and they will go back to tradition.

I get more and more excited with each song!

I listen to the song while I headed to work. I love it. Its a great song. I love the lyrics. You can tell he's talking about Texas.

I was listening to one part and I thought Don was sounding like Bob Dylan. LOL Looking at who sings harmony on the song, its like 5 people singing harmony and I can really heard Alison's voice, but they blend very well together. I can't hear Vince's voice because you can tell when he's on a record.

Great song. Like I said earlier. I wonder how many songs Don is going to put out before the CD comes out next month. I'm loving hearing these songs.

Like I said earlier to Funk 50. This is country music. They're suppose to have steel pedal in their songs and Don will probably have a lot of songs that you will a lot of steel pedal. I'm glad he has the steel pedal because it definitely makes it feel like a country song. The country sound I grew up listening to before country music decided to go country pop/country rock again.

It's beautiful! Love it! You go Don!

Thanks F50!

Hmmm...I have to be honest and admit I like it the least of those I've heard so far. The lyrics are amazing as usual and Don sounds great. It's a pleasant song but maybe it just needs time to grow on me

[AlreadyGone95]

Praying for Rain is probably my favorite song that he's released so far. There's an emotional connection that draws me in lyrically, even though he's singing about Texas. I love the steel pedal!

[Tori]

Really diggin' this tune. I love the steel pedal as well. Very country, which I love.

It's all relative, I guess? We've had our worst summer here for years - it's rained almost every day - so I'm 'praying for sun!'

[L101]

I have to say, it's my least favourite of the songs released so far. Its nice and the lyrics are pure Don, but its missing something....it just doesn't have the "essence of Don", that is, no oomph, for want of a better word.

My favourite so far, is 'That Old Flame' but I love how Don sounds in 'When I Stop Dreaming' - kinda wish he had sung that one on his own though.....

It's all relative, I guess? We've had our worst summer here for years - it's rained almost every day - so I'm 'praying for sun!'

If we go 50 minutes without rain here, its a good day
