Mac Davis was a humble, down to earth guy who never really let fame go to his head. He stayed true to who he was. Just a good ole' boy from Texas. Such a talented songwriter and singer. RIP Mac.

To lose Mac Davis and Helen Reddy within a day is crushing. I grew up listening to both of them.😢😢😢😢

Mac Davis was greatly loved among his fans. Talented writer, great singer in his own right with his hit songs that anyone in the 70s recognized immediately. Mac was also a tv and movie star. He seemed to have it all and did because his fame never took away from being a good husband and Dad. God bless Mac, we thank God for putting his talents on this earth for all to enjoy. His song Memories says it all. Its what we hold with Mac Davis. Great memories of Mac forever.

I have sweet .
memories of when I first heard Mac Davis sing "Baby, Don't Get Hooked On Me " but it was too late...I already was. :) Don't think I've ever played any song as much as I played that. Love you, Mac... RIP🙏❤💚🧡💛💜💚💛

When it comes to movies, there is nothing better than the director's cut. When it comes to songs, there is often nothing better than the songwriter's original version. I suspected for 50 years there must be more to this song than the single verse of Elvis' version ( which I first heard on the live "Comeback Special" in 1968). The two darker verses make it a much more interesting song.

Let's not forget Mac as the greatest movie QB of all time Seth Maxwell in North Dallas Forty.
For football players of that era that was OUR movie. RIP Mr. Davis. You led a great life and you are missed.
