The fact that he sometimes shows emotion when he sings is what sets him apart from other performers in my opinion. LOVE that about him.

Amy and Vince are incomparable, we just attended their Christmas show a few nights ago and it was simply amazing. I've posted nearly 1 hour of the show if you'd like to enjoy and many of the songs they performed are the very best versions we've heard. Thank God he healed this angel from her terrible accident to allow her to bring so much joy to the masses, she is full of grace and love.

"I'm an emotional guy" - Vince, that's why we love you! (Oh, and for your songwriting, singing, harmonies on just about everyone else's songs and, oh yes, your guitar playing!) 💕

We all get older...look different some more than others. What's always the same with Vince is his heart. He always has a kind word to say. He's still handsome..his spirit is Golden. ❤

Seriously. This man. What a beautiful soul and song. While plenty of people write songs about their significant other, this feels really special. This abiding love between these two….how palpable the way they adore and love and appreciate one another. Makes my heart all gooey.

Congratulations on yet another Grammy. But better still, so thankful for you two to share the love you wrote about. Nothing but love for you, Vinny.

he's so right. I met her and her kindness, warmth and her gracousness is so encouraging.

God will never give up on you keep putting Him first.

Beautiful song and I feel Vince deserved the Grammy but for the whole album not just for that one song. But I am so happy for him.

Congrats to Vince and I love his music and his wifes, God bless

Vince, your music is like a poetic love letter. You obviously love your wife and family. I remember the first time I heard you sing. It was on the radio. " The Heart won't Lie". I was ridding around with my dad, and just loved everything you sang since then. Thank you for sharing your gift. 😊

[jeaniestanley]

I love that you're paying tribute to your wife, Amy. Something my father, Carter Stanley, did with Mary, Merry Christmas.

Vince is so supremely talented musically, master guitarist, songwriter, beautiful vocalist in every band he’s ever been involved in, (Pure Prairie League) and others and that’s even before his incredible success in his Nashville career in country music and all his dozens of awards!, , He’s a super Mega star in so many ways it’s hard to count. But, mostly a fantastic human being! We love you Vince !

I am so very sad and at the same time very happy. Having discovered the music or Vince Gill has given me a real lift, I find his music so honest and real the hind of music that is timeless. What saddens me is that it has taken until now to discover his amazing talent. I am now and will be forever a fan thank you for making an old man happy.

[cabinarrow]

These Grammys are old hat but your songs are not. Your songs are timeless and I will be listening to you till the day I leave this world. God has given you and Amy a gift you share with us all.

[kimkochel]

Love both of you. You deserve everything you get. Keep up the great work you two. Bless you 🙏 ♥ from Canada 🇨🇦

One of the most powerful moments of my LIFE was when Vince spoke at the Possums funeral. Of course Patti came to save him cause he broke down like ANYONE would have. Then..like the song. Vince said.."Its my BELIEF..they don't make those shoes anymore." To me..that's the day TRUE COUNTRY MUSIC..was gone forever..

[margietripp]

Vince, you've been #1 in my book since we first saw you in Portland, Maine, in 1981 and your band was stuck in Rochester, NY broken down. It was just you and your guitar and you were fantastic!

[rosecline]

Congratulations and I have loved your singing and performances All my life since seeing you singing with Patty Loveless, Ricky Scaggs and others, you are a blessing from our God in Heaven, hallelujah. Thank you and your precious wife, Amy Grant. ❤🥰
