Who the fuck knew this was Rogers? I was watching BIG LEBOWSKI and wondered who did this song. As it kicks ass. Lo in behold. KENNY FREAKING ROGERS. I got his 42 greatest hits cd. It is good.

I love this song. Jeff Walker from Carcass covered it on Welcome To Carcass Cuntry. Sounds better than the original.

I had no Idea that was him either.

who is it that does that other song in the Big Lebowski that goes something like "ooooh what a wonderful feeling.... just to know that you are near"
It plays during the opening credits.
