Vince Gill, 'Threaten Me With Heaven' (Exclusive Live Video)

Gino DePinto, The Boot

After Vince Gill performed his Grammy-nominated song, 'Threaten Me With Heaven,' in our studios, there was a bit of a delay before he could get to the next tune on the set-list. That's because our crew members were so blown away by the spine-tingling performance and poignant lyrics, that we couldn't resist stopping to talk to him about the song.

"The original phrase came from my step-kids' grandfather," the Country Music Hall of Famer explained. "He had received bad news about his health, and that was his response: 'What are they going to do? Threaten me with heaven?' How very profound ... I think this song honors him in a really great way."

Watch our exclusive live video of Vince singing 'Threaten Me With Heaven' below, and check out the rest of his AOL Sessions +1 performance here.
