Interesting facts and trivia about Past The Point Of Rescue. By Songfacts®.

In this song, a lovelorn Hal Ketchum wonders if he's past the point of rescue, meaning it's truly over with his girl. In the video, we see her burning a picture of Hal, so that's not a good sign.

A #1 hit in Canada and #2 on the US Country chart, this title track is the highest-charting single from Hal Ketchum's Gold-certified album Past the Point of Rescue. It was his first major-label album and the song was his breakout hit. The album also produced three other charting singles: "Small Town Saturday Night," "I Know Where Love Lives," and "Five O'Clock World," which is a cover of The Vogues' song.

This song was also covered by the Dixie Chicks on their 1992 album Little Ol' Cowgirl.
