Jimmy Wayne - Sara Smile Lyrics

Saw him open for Trisha Yearwood, an amazing talent.

Ya happy now

How is this guy not singing anymore . When you get chills you know it good!!

The live version on Daryl's House... to die for. Hall & Oates both honored this recorded version by adding their backing vocals to this track. Great tune, great rendition.

This is an amazing performance of one of the most beautiful songs ever written. You have done some truly great work here. Your voice is so soulful and emotional. As a 59 year old man who was there when Hall and Oates first released this song (and fell completely in love with its hypnoticly smooth, enticing melody), I am in awe of you for not only doing justice to this remake, but giving it a newness that I never thought could happen. You have brought me back to a beautiful time in my life when I first fell in love with this song. Thank you for that gift, Mr Wayne.

You inspire alot of people!

He has to be the artist who sounds as close to Daryl Hall!! My favorite version hands-on!🙌

I grew up with Hall and Oates. Jimmy Wayne nails this!!!! Hand's down. I'd like to hear Vince Gill sing it also

He nailed it. Awesome.

I first heard this guy Live at Daryl's House... man he got soul. And he's a country guy?

Good one Jimmy. I like your story. Thanks

Great, but the Jimmy Wayne live version on Daryl's House sends chills through me.

the chord changes in this song are so difficult and he pulls it off perfectly !  LOVE THIS GUY's voice

wow - never heard of this guy - where has he been?  he sings the hell out of it !

So beautiful ❤️😊

Makes me cry even time.

I love that song !!👌🎤🎵💜

Great job bro!!

He has a true feel for the songs, not just “his” selfish take.

Awesome!

I saw this boy on Daryl's house,   he's got the 'groove'

Would be great to see Jimmy team up with Diane Birch and do a remake (again) of Michael McDonald and Patti Labelle's song On My Own.

Eu amo esta música pois fiz uma homenagem p minha filha Sarah, letra e música harmoniosas!!! A interpretação então, talento puro de Jimmy Wayne!

93 people with brain damage

My little brother nails it all the time!

Great Version !!

he could sing to me any day!

I'm not a big fan of pop music (I prefer twangy country music), so the only song I ever knew by Jimmy Wayne was "I love you this much." His music career started right about the time I stopped listening because country music became pop. However, I am reading his book and it made me want to look up all his music. I never heard this song by Hall and Oates (I was listening to real country during those years). It's okay.

With no doubt this song was written for your voice. Sorry Hall & Oates, but Jimmy definitely took this song as his. PS. Sarah is my daughter's name.

No puedes hacerle esto a un clasicazo de Hall & Oates.

Dennis kaufman loves sarah lane keim

Hall and otes is better

Skillful done👍

1:43 😔.....did it much better live on Daryl’s house!

Seen him at.. well on Daryl’s house! He’s KILLED IT live!!

#awesome 🤘

Man! I just read your book, Walk to Beautiful, and what a testimony! You are so courageous and an inspiration! Best of luck and much love!!!!!!!!

would like to see him do "one on one" , he would nail it , as for the 80 fools who thumb down this don't know music , period

I have fallen in love with this guy Since seeing him on Live from Daryl's House I love his voice and love the rendition of this great song Listen to it every day

what's up wt Jimmy?? miss that voice...

Uh... I thought I wouldn't like this. But, you know what, ya gotta hand it to him. He can sing. He's unfortunately missing an incredible guitarist/vocalist with a bitchin' moustache! Oh wait. John Oates has a soul patch too 🤔.

Love this guy and this song and highly and I mean highly recommend his book and what he went through to get to this point in his life. https://www.amazon.com/Walk-Beautiful-Power-Homeless-Found-ebook/dp/B00KQ2G3HG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1503854602&sr=8-1&keywords=jimmy+wayne+walk+to+beautiful

I just finished your book "Walking to Beautiful". Wow! No words... except everyone should read it.

I'm reading it right now. It's why I came to hear all these songs he talks about...

I am reading it right now. Can't put the book down. Love the book.

beautiful remake. Sorry I think it's better then original. He sings with so much feeling.

Wow! What a beautiful voice. I remember hearing him on the Bob and Sheri radio show before his recording career. I didn't realize what he could do with his voice though. He has more ability than probably any other country western singer. And, no one has a bigger heart. I wonder what he's doing these days since I noticed he hasn't released anything lately. I don't usually listen to CW music, but this cover was better than the original. Jimmy Wayne, maybe you can do what Taylor Swift did and cross over. With that voice, you could do anything. Much love!

I ve never heard this song sung better than Hall and Oates did, great job sir...

were did she go away from my life

jimmy love u man read ur book walk to beautiful im from asheville nc . You have been a inspiration to me God bless u man.

LOVE this song!!!! Love both version by Hall & Oates, and Jimmy Wayne!

Love this song....... Sara keep smiling.

It's even better when he performs it with the great Daryl Hall. Live at Daryl's House

Amazon recommendation brought me here. I'd never heard of Mr.Wayne. Excellent cover of Hall and Oates classic.

His version Live At Darryl's House....OMG he nails it. Gorgeous.

Yes!! he's Gorgeous! beautiful voice!

Account Play I watch that rendition over and over. It unbelievable. He is gorgeous for sure. Anyone know what he's doing now?

Even Daryl Hall was impressed. It was scorching!

I totally agree.

Cannot buy a CD with this track on in the U.K.

Steve Birks that's unfortunate

Impressed! Great song great cover.

I am not a Country an Western person. But... this AWESOME best remake. After7 did it in R&B but best Ever!! But Daryl Hall should be proud it's their Hit Song!! Hats off Mr Jimmy Wayne <3

this isn't very 'country' at all. :)

you know nothing about country,pop,western please Just enjoy the music no matter what you think it may be...OMG

DAMN!!!!!

Ola Fortner I second that DAMN!

perfection

I'm literally obsessed with this song!!!!! 😍🙌🙏👍👍👏

Me too!

Back again for my fix!!

Seriously the only cover of this song I've ever liked. He has no idea how much 2 of his songs helped change my life. Very underappreciated songwriter/singer. Him and Mindy Smith

Terry swims thank me later

Dear Jimmy,
your story is so inspiring. You actually reminded me of how God really works, even though you could have gone down any number of paths....you listened to your inner voice and it lead you. Thank-you for your story, you are beautiful!

he came to my school last year

he came to my school last year

I had to once again come and get my Jimmy Wayne fix singing Sarah Smile! One huge fan of his! :)

👌🏽🙌🏽

Please come sing at the restaurant I work at❤️

Oh my....

I just finished reading Jimmy's life story in his book Walk to Beautiful, and I had to hear him sing this song. It's no wonder that DreamWorks signed him after performing this song. Simply beautiful!

Rebecca Gallivan I found the book at a thrift store two days ago. I'd heard him on a Christian radio. can't put it down. had to hear him sing. that's why I'm here.

Wow Wow Wow !!! What an absolute magical cover of one of the most romantic songs ever written.BIG fan of Jimmy`s !!!

I totally agree with you, Shayne

Wow… it's been one of those nights that i just wanted to ball up and cry… to get lost in depression, and then i come across this song… and hearing my name being sung in it i couldn't help but smile. It felt like something was trying to use this song to tell me to just smile, that it would be ok….
Thank you Jimmy Wayne, for singing such beautiful music.

LOVE Jimmy Wayne SINGING THIS SONG! He has & puts so much soul & feelings into this song! You SING It Boy! I don't know if I want to cry or dance. LoL

AWESOME TRACK

Peace and Love

I was named after this song❤️ the cover is excellent

@sara brooks thats awesome !!!

+sara brooks And you are just as beautiful as this song sweetheart. And of course, you have EXCELLENT taste in music!!

my mom named me after this song too :)

He is an amazing person! He was in foster care in Gaston county and had my favorite social worker... I have listened to his story and it breaks my heart I have went through the same things he has and so I look up to him I had the opportunity to see him perform at my school and I loved it. He made me cry... He said a lot of things that I felt like he was directing towards me. I Love You Jimmy Wayne!!!

I hope things are going well for you now. I had a rotten childhood, which is why "I love you this much" spoke to me so deeply. However, compared to Jimmy's life--mine was not that bad. I will keep you in my prayers.

I know his brother from kings mtn NC. That's where. He's from and I love his voice

I just meet this guy cause he came by my school Ashbrook High School, and he was freaking amazing

he is a person i like to look up too i just aged out of foster care on october 25,2014

Some of Jimmy's songs are also on iTunes but if this clip was available, I would definitely buy it.

I CAN'T GET OVER THE FACT THAT JIMMY DIDN'T GET AS MUCH ATTENTION AND ACCOLADES THAT HE DESERVES.HE IS BEYOND COUNTRY MUSIC.THE "COUNTRY-SOUL-MOTOWN" TYPE OF GENRE FUSION....

I like your depiction of his musical style. You pegged it!

he is Amazing!  song and soul.......i am so impressed with this young man

All I have to say is :  BADASS  ;)

Seriously you're an old soul with a voice to match!! Amazing gift!!

I Came Here BECAUSE I Seen Him On Daryl's HOUSE!!!!! I thought... NO WAY!!!! No One Can Do Daryl's Songs Without Screwing  them Up. Im A Life Long Daryl Fan , Born In 1970 & Have been A Fan Of His ( Daryl Hall).. Since I was A Babe. So I Can Say THIS  Blew Me Away

Daryl and John did the back-up vocals for him on this. 

I was also born in 1970, and also am a huge Daryl fan, but I almost like this version better!

Star Wanderer same here...mind blown.

me too ~ xx

Oh, oh and oh my..........Isn't he just so cute?  This song suits him....beautiful! Terrific video but way too short. I saw the video at Daryl's house it also was terrific. Want to see Jimmy in person.

This guy has a remarkable personal story. He was homeless at one time.  Amazing how God can open all the doors so that a man like this can use his talents to get ahead.  He is really blessed in so many ways.

Where was God when he was homeless? Fuck that shit; it was luck, talent, and the American Way....

His mom and step dad also kicked him out of a car in Pensacola Florida when he was like 10 I think and he is from gastonia north Carolina!! He has been through hell and that is why his voice is so beautiful!!!

Don't say that Jimmy survived a horrific childhood one that a lot of kids don't and you ask where was God? He was right next to him quietly guiding him. You may not think he did but Jimmy is the first one to tell you that and every show my friend and I went to he said that. He's here and he's alive and he's helping other foster kids that were just like him.He's an advocate out there for all those kids out there that are growing up in the same conditions that he did only he is giving them a voice something that he himself didn't have growing up because too many adults looked at him and automatically dismissed him as being a trouble maker when all he ever wanted was someone to be there for him and love him. Jimmy is a very special young man.

For the 33 people who did not like this go to "Live at Daryl's House" and see him do this! There was not hate on the show!!

TheJwp1957 Agree!

Absolutely! I have spent time with Jimmy and he is the real deal. Need more like this on the radio.

Too true! His duet with Darryl is THE BEST version of this song ever!!!!

Daryl’s video brought me here. This guy has a gorgeous voice. Beautiful rendition

I agree... he got soul. I tried to sing this song last night and realized I'm woefully inept. I need more soul!
