18.08.2006 21:27 Widderick Member	*** Durchschnittliche Country-Ballade. Die Harfe nervt etwas. Wirkt wie so oft in dieser Zeit schmalzig-schmierig.
14.11.2007 17:32 Snormobiel Beusichem Member	***** ▒ Één van zijn grootste en mooiste Countryhits in Holland scoorde "Jim Reeves" begin mei 1964 met deze mooie "I Love You Because" !!! Maarliefst 35 weken lang (# 9) stond de plaat vermeld in de Hollandse hitlijsten !!! Een zeer mooi resultaat !!! Triest is dat hij omkwam bij een vliegtuigongeluk, 31 juli 1964 !!! Vooruit 5 sterren ☺!!! Last edited: 03.07.2008 22:39
04.01.2008 10:52 LarkCGN Member	**** Gut!
06.06.2008 19:30 Homer Simpson Member	**** Nette Ballade
Sacred Member	*** 1x gehört im Leben und weg damit
DeejayDave Member	* Deze slome plaat van Jim Reeves is om ver weg in een hoekje te verstoppen.
querbeet Member	**** Aus dieser Zeit MUSS das ja schmalzig sein; recht ordentliche Stimme, der gute Jim Reeves.
remember Member	*** muss gar nicht, schließlich herschte schon die Beatle-mania. und trotzdem ein Doppelsieg für Reeves 1964, damit die #1 des jahres (!!) und auf #2 ebenfalls Jim Reeves..
Der_Nagel Member	*** langweiliges Liebesgesäusel aus den 60er - knappe 3*...damit 1964 13 Wochen auf #1 in Norwegen (38 Wochen notiert, in der ewigen Bestenliste auf #2 zu finden - toll ist es bestimmt nicht, kriegt selbstverständlich eine ungenügende Wertung)... Last edited: 16.12.2009 11:42
naamloos Member	**** Romantische song van Jim en een dikke hit in Nederland.
oldiefan1 Member	***** eine schöne Ballade
Rewer hitparade.ch	*** ...weniger...
Patrick7781 Member	** duidelijk een van de bekendere songs van "Jim" in Nederland, maar eigenlijk de B-Kant van "Waltzing On Top Of The World" welk nummer ook ver de betere van de twee is. Voor mij een ultiem voorbeeld van onervarenheid bij Nederlandse Radiomakers (promoters) waar het country-muziek betreft.
Windfee Member	**** hm, ich dachte diese wunderschöne Liebeserklärung kommt hier besser weg, am Anfang fand ich das auch langweilig, aber nach mehrmaligem Reinhören kommt das wirklich sehr einschmeichelnd und eingängig rüber - 4.5* in UK war das Stück sogar 39 Wochen in den Charts, dafür ist es in den USA nie aufgetaucht
alleyt1989 Member	****** Great song! Love it!
