Singing with incredible power and emotion, this young girl easily moved everyone to tears when she performed one of the most iconic country songs ever written.
Originally recorded in 1980 by George Jones, “He Stopped Loving Her Today” is a country ballad unlike any other. The song single-handedly brought back Jones’ faltering career and went on to not only top the country charts, but become his signature song – leaving behind a legacy that would never be forgotten.

Nowhere is this legacy more clear than when nine-year-old Anna Faith Howell picks up the microphone on what looks like the stage at a school’s auditorium.
She effortlessly moves through each verse, touching on each note with emphasis, emotion, and conviction as if she’d been professionally singing for decades.
Howell gives George Jones one of the best tributes we have ever seen and we’re sure you’ll love it too!
