Slim Whitman – Favourite Love Songs

Slim Whitman sings many of my favourite love songs. I love the way he has a yodel in his voice, and I also love that very high steel guitar sound.

1. White silver sands

2. Harbor lights

This song has a special meaning to me, and I love the beautiful video.

3. Blue bayou

I have often thought of this song, and longed to be by the sea. It is so tough to be “working till the sun don’t shine.” Slim Whitman sings all these songs so well.

4. Remember me, I’m the one who loves you

5. Red river valley

When I was a teenager, I loved this song so much, and longed to be in America.

6. Something beautiful to remember

7. Red sails in the sunset

8. Love letters in the sand

Another favourite love song that brings back so many memories.

9. I’m walking behind

I heard this one on the radio by Eddie Fisher.

10. I love you because

11. Anytime

I love the yodel in Slim Whitman’s voice.

12. In the misty moonlight

I used to love singing this favourite love song.

13. Blue eyes crying in the rain – One of my favourite love songs by Slim Whitman

One night we were driving in the rain on the Queen Elizabeth Way, between Burlington and Toronto (Canada), when I heard Slim Whitman on the radio singing, “In the twilight glow I see her, blue eyes crying in the rain.” I know Willie Nelson also sang that song, but I loved the Slim’s version. There is hope for the future in the song, “When we meet again up yonder, we’ll stroll hand in hand again.” I always associate that song with the Berlin wall, where families were separated.

14. Careless hands

15. Home on the range

16. Tumbling tumbleweeds

17. Paper roses

18. From a jack to a king

This was a hit when I was dating my first girl friend.

19. Rocking alone in an old rocking chair

Tears at my heart.

20. Weary and blue

I love all the old photos.

21. These are my mountains

22. Letter edged in black

Takes me back to my teenage years.

23. Down in the valley

I heard this song on a TV movie. An old western with Kirk Douglas. It had a haunting feel to it. Then he sings words I heard on the radio before that sounded so nice: “Roses love sunshine, violets love dew, angels in heaven know I love you.”

24. Galway bay

I lay in bed last night with this song on my heart.

25. Faded love

It is so sad too see love fade. Some people who used to love me, don’t want to know me anymore.

26. Think I’ll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep

27. Have I told you lately

I heard my mother sing this favourite love song when I was a little boy.

28. Hi Lili hi lo

I played in a band that used to do this song.

29. Mocking bird hill

Every song that Slim Whitman sings is beautiful.

30. Send me the pillow

31. Gonna find me a blue bird

32. Stranger on the shore

33. River of no return

34. South of the border

35. Just out of reach

36. I’ll hold you in my heart

37. It keeps right on a hurting

38. Top of the world

39. Nobody’s darling but mine

40. Una Paloma blanca

41. You are my sunshine

42. Tennessee yodel polka

He is singing with Virginia Lee. She was very popular in Africa. She did a lot of country type records. Heart wrenching stuff.

43. Danny Boy

A few years ago I heard the second verse of this song for the first time. I think it was Elvis singing it. It really wrenched my heart, because I love my son so much.

44. Sunrise

One day as I was watching the sunrise, I thought of this song as I praised the Lord for another day.

45. Who at my door is standing

46. He

47. Beyond the sunset

He does this gospel song so nicely.

48. What’s this world coming to

49. Today is mine

50. I’ll never pass this way again

51. Under his wings

52. How great thou art

53. It is no secret
