About the Song

Ah, folks, gather ’round for a tale of heartache that twangs truer than a steel guitar string. We’re diving into a classic country tune by the one and only Conway Twitty, a singer whose voice could soothe a thunderstorm and leave you feeling the weight of the world all at once. The song we’re about to revisit is called “It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin'”. Now, that title alone tells you a story, doesn’t it? It’s a song that doesn’t shy away from the raw pain of a love lost, a love that just won’t seem to fade away.

Twitty released “It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin'” back in 1975, but the ache it portrays is timeless. It’s a song that many of us can relate to, those moments when a breakup feels like a fresh wound, no matter how much time has passed. You might remember that feeling – nights spent tossing and turning, the echo of laughter in an empty room, the scent of perfume or aftershave that hangs in the air like a cruel reminder.

“It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin'” isn’t about anger or blame, though. It’s about that quiet, gnawing pain that settles deep in your bones. It’s the ache of missing someone, the longing for what used to be. So, if you’ve ever been there, if you’ve ever nursed a heartbreak that just wouldn’t heal, then this song is for you. Settle in, grab a tissue if you need it, and let Conway Twitty’s voice take you back to that place where the memories linger and the hurt just won’t quit.
