Alison Krauss - When You Say Nothing At All - YouTube

I believe that this song was written by Paul Overstreet and sung first by the late Keith Whitley because Alison sang the song for his tribute album.

God bless you and her and Paul always!!!

Holly (a fan of Alison since 1994, the year that she sang the song)

P.S. May Keith rest in peace too.

[Sgt_Gath]

Most people most don't realize it (simply because Cash so completely owns this song), but it is actually a cover of a song by Nine Inch Nails.

Here's another of the more obvious examples as well.

Here's a good one from the grunge era. It's actually quite a beautiful song.

And here is the cover by Lauren Hill with the Fugees. I really like Lauren's version better, she has such a strong voice, and her version is so funky! Lol!
