Toby Keith pays homage to his close friend Wayman Tisdale who passed away in May last year as captured in a music video for his single "Cryin' for Me (Wayman's Song)". His performance scene is mashed up with random footage of the late NBA star and jazz bassist.
"Cryin' for Me" is taken from Keith's latest studio installment "American Ride". The country music crooner planned to perform the song at Tisdale's funeral, but delivered Willie Nelson's "Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground" instead because he was too emotional to sing the tribute track.
Toby Keith's 13th studio album, "American Ride" has arrived in U.S. stores since October 6. Led by the title track, the effort peaked at No. 3 on Billboard Hot 200 and reigned the U.S. Top Country Albums chart.
