The Rose: Still an amazing song

The moment I heard Bette Midler's hit song The Rose, I loved it. I cannot read the words without applying them to my own life. They are powerful words that stand reach down to the depths of my soul. It's a song that stands the test of time. I have loved other versions of this song as well, including, but not limited to, Conway Twitty's version. Still great after all these years, and quite possibly in my top ten all time. Enjoy!

Here's the Conway Twitty version.

And then this wonderful performance, a duet with Bette Midler and Wynona Judd.
