There’s no doubt that John Michael Montgomery’s “Love The Way You Love Me” is a staple of ’90s country. The tender ballad became his first career chart-topper before winning Song of the Year at the 29th ACM Awards. 31 years after its release, none other than Montgomery’s son, Walker, released a cover of his father’s classic, and it’s a damn good one.
