For This Duet, "Staying Together" Is Worth It

31 Oct 09

Gene Watson and Rhonda Vincent’s duet, “Staying Together,” lets you eavesdrop on a tender moment between these two loveless lovers. Their reasons for staying together are not for their own hearts but rather for the family. Consequently they’re left to wrestle heavy hearts weighed down by the baggage, sorrow and pain of a love that’s long expired. You can see the sadness in Watson’s eyes and hear it in his seamless vocals. Vincent, too, thrills with her powerful voice as she proves mighty convincing with each evocative note. Even the steel guitar weeps for these two unfortunate souls. I suppose when it comes to a true heartbreaker of a country song, in their own words, “There ain’t nothin’ sadder, there ain’t nothin’ colder.”
