Waylon Jennings, one of the greatest artists of all times once said "If we all sounded like we wanted, we'd sound like George Jones" That says it all
It's not that he sings imperfectly- he sings the way George sings. Always has... thats why people love him. No one else like him
everyone except Frank Sinatra sings imperfectly compared to George Jones
ole possum lived a life...and this song shares what I believe his heart and regrets he has, but he was honest.
He doesn't sing perfectly. He is perfectly sings
I had the chance to meet George one day when I drove by his house and stopped to look. He invited me to come up and just sit for a while. He was such a kind person, he spoke to me like he knew me just like his songs speak to so many people. When he sang, he had a gift that let him pull you into his life. That was Mr. Jones
As the late Charlie Daniels said in his eulogy given at George's funeral, "George is the only person that could get 5 syllables out of the word 'church'".
He stopped loving her today is a real tearjerker.
White Lightning and The Corvette Song are upbeat happy songs.
Who’s gonna fill their shoes is a beautiful nostalgic tribute to many of the greatest country artists of all time
George Jones had a unique style of singing. One of his biggest hits , “He Stopped Loving Her Today “ will have you bawling. Another singer named Lefty Frizzell had a way of singing that may have inspired George.
George Jones was a very big fan of Hank Williams. In George Jones’ early recordings in the 50’s he tried to mimic Hank Williams. Until his record label told him to stop doing that and find your own sound.
Lefty absolutely inspired George, ever hear for sale or lease or you're in my heart??
OMG.... Thanks you. lm not an OLD guy (53 and a Rocker ) but. George is The Voice of country music. The "cover thieves", never give credit. ONLY 1 man, can sing "Tennessee Whiskey". Love the channel many years. RIP "No Show Jones". (Watch HIs funeral ....... from the Opre ....Lord Lord.....)
George Jones’s voice is a once in a lifetime experience. The way his voice pulls your emotional strings is something I don’t think many people can do. The Possum will always be one of the greatest voices of country music.
This is the perfect song for George. I saw him in concert about 20 years ago and he was terrific. He struggled with alcohol most of his life and you can hear that in the way he sings this song.
George is George and we loved his imperfections. So many great songs and lived a hard life. I am still a big fan of Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes and The Grand Tour.
I always love your reactions and analyses, Beth. If you get a few minutes to research George's life, you'll see just how honest this song is. And if you want to hear what a lot of people refer to as the greatest country song ever written, may I suggest, as others have already, "He Stopped Loving Her Today". You may wish to have a box of tissues handy. Best wishes always, Coach.
this song was really about the days he was drinking and making the wrong choices. if he had not stopped, he would have died. Greatest Country Singer ever. R.I.P. George.
❤ Wow...I hadn't heard George in a (TOO) long time. You are SPOT on with your "assessment" if arguably the MOST iconic country singer of all time. Not only did I grow up LISTENING to him but, was fortunate enough to know him since I was a young girl. My family are, (were) both writers, and GREAT FRIENDS with him. They had 13 cuts with him through the years. She worked at his publishing company for 3 years of I remember correctly, then going to the GREAT TREE PUBLISHING COMPANY. His voice HAS always had a "weathered" quality. He's UNMISTAKABLE. ARTIST, STYLIST, ICON...I Sure miss him. Thank you for bringing him to a NEW generation... we ALL can use a little, "POSSUM" in our lives❤
In his prime George Jones had a entirely unique voice able to go from deep baritone to soaring tenor in a single verse but this is the voice of man almost five decades into his career. All the physical abuse and the the vagaries of age may have robbed him of his range but assuaged his gift by allowing to attain a lived-in quality. Live a favorite pair or jeans. They fit and almost no other pair will do.
Much love to you ! You understand George Jones and appreciate who he was to all of us ❤️
George was undoubtedly the BEST!!! Alcoholism almost killed him. He obtained a nickname of No Show Jones because of missed shows. This song was quite autobiographic. Saw him live and it was a great show. If you really want to hear a GREAT country music album, check out George Jones and Merle Haggard A Taste Of Yesterday's Wine album. You'll love it.
Waylon said it best if we could sound like we wanted we’d sound like George Jones. George loved every bit of this song I’m so glad people are finding this out I’ve listened to him all my life
George Jones vocal ability is really underrated. I’m not a huge country fan but he is one of my favorites. Have a listen to “Bartenders Blues” The runs he does are so smooth and effortless. Not to mention he is well into the higher middle range that many of us male singers struggle with. Listen to that song and you’ll see he had mix voice mastered and I’m assuming he probably didn’t even know that’s what he was doing.
76 years old and sing a lot of karaoke and can cover quite a few genera and have learned to judge the crowds in the venues. If an older rural crowd, George Jones is a must to include. My go to songs are "Choices" and "He stopped loving her today"
The best Country Singer Of ALL TIME. Nobody ever delivered a song better than him, and his voice was a true instrument. Thank U for choosing the Possum
Jones the greatest to ever do it and it ain’t even close love and miss u thank God we have your music rip jones
This song was written by a friend of mine from Doniphan, Missouri... Billy Yates.
Halò Beth, George & Tammy together, on “My Elusive Dreams” is a real stunner & worth a listen.
Tìoraidh an-drasta
He was just so dang good truly one of the greatest artist ever
Now look up George singing "White Lightning" in order to hear his voice when he was starting out.
Side note: "White Lightning" was written by J.P. "the Big Bopper" Richardson.
👍👍
George Jones is like now I was going to chalkboard to me. However, you really should do a reaction on the song " he stopped loving her today ". It's one of the greatest songs ever written.
Georges story is incredible. His discography reflects his own life almost to the teeth
+I relate to George. He sums up my life. Always a tear for this song.
Que bonita voz y que bonita canción me hará pensar él fin de semana en una hermosa sirena bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀
George Jones is one of the greatest country singers of all time, dive down into George’s rabbit hole.😊
Good ol' George Jones could get a lot of emotion into every phrase. Yes, "He Stopped Loving Her today" will definitely need some tissues handy! Appreciated your comments.
Listen to George Jones during his early years. He lived a hard hard life..... Best damn singer ever. Sinatra even said he was second best, of course frank thinks himself numero uno😂
He is the King of Country forever. RIP and thank you for sharing your heart with us, Mr. George Jones.
George's voice brings back memories of childhood fishing with my grandfather. Took him to one of George's last show before they both passed not to far after. It's the simpler time of music no big production just stories
You should look up Ralph Stanley. I think you'd be pleasantly surprised by his voice
Gracias desde Madrid España ...very beautiful lady Beth... gracias por reaction to Nino Bravo y Camilo Sesto...kisses to you🌺💃💋
Beth, this was shortly after a terrible auto crash that almost killed him. He suffered rib and liver injuries as well as collapsed lung and was on a ventilator. He couldn’t sing at all following the accident and at 68 years of age it took a while to recover. But he did get better again. Please check out some of his earlier performances to see the best of George Jones
Years of alcohol and drug abuse took a heavy toll on George's voice. I definitely recommend listening to some of his work from the 60s and early 70s to hear why he's regarded as the greatest country singer of them all.
Let alone the late 50's. The best I think was '59 to '64 for his voice, but age allowed for different dimensions of his voice to come through for sure.
When Johnny Cash was asked who the best country music singer was, he replied, "You mean, besides Geoge Jones?"
Hey Beth, First i would like to say love your channel. But I do love this song. But i also grew up listing to George Jones. Love your honesty with the reactions. Thank you for your honest reaction.
HELL YEAH, COUNTRY..well as long as it's real country.
I love the possum....great truthful Country song 😊❤. He recorded this album and fell off the wagon n back into drinking again and crashed his car nearly killing himself in 1999 right after finishing the album. Thank God he survived and never drank again i believe. RIP Jones

I believe this is George at his peak. Live performance warning Crowd goes wild when he starts so careful on ears ruclips.net/video/6DDhDTIYKxg/видео.html
He did like the party when he was younger.. His nickname was no show Jones way back in the 60s and in the early 70s
Indeed George struggled with alcohol for most of his life. He was a very shy guy who hated performing, and used to figure that a couple drinks before a show would calm his nerves. But he might end up drinking all night and missing the show. He could be very kind - he’d pick up a hitchhiker and drive him to wherever he was going, even in another state.
But his drinking and his irresponsible behavior drove his wife to distraction. Tammy Wynette was a great country singer in her own right, and they often sang together, but she worried his drinking would kill him, and whenever she confronted him about it he’d get pissed off, and they’d fight. Famously she once hid his car keys and the old boy just got on his riding mower and drove down the highway to the store.
She finally left him, and I think that shock might’ve helped him. Having destroyed his marriage and his career, he did finally get cleaned up. He and Tammy remained close. I think he always loved her. Finally in the 1990’s he had a career renaissance that really began with “Choices” and the rest of the “Cold Hard Truth” album. This song, and the title track, really felt like Jones coming clean about his flaws and his frailty, and owning his bs, and it’s truly heart wrenching in its honesty - but he always had that gift as a singer, and at this stage in his career, to see this lovable train wreck of a man finally find stability and maturity, and to sing about that… well it was perfect. My dad has always been a Jones fan, but I became one when I heard “Choices.”
George and Otis Redding are the 2 voices I believe outta the box.
Direct connection to the core in both.
The Possum was brilliant. You need to try Merle Haggard singing Sing Me Home. I think he's the best country singer ever. Or Maybe Vince Gil doing Whenever You Come Around. Please.
Please please check out his song, “Wild Irish Rose”. It’s a meaningful and heartbreaking song. It was George at his best.
He's on my Mount Rushmore of favorite artists.
Please react to 'Wayfaring Stranger - Epic Version' by Simon Khorolskiy Feat. Chis Rupp. (formally of Home Free) Also, did you know that in the old Disney movie 'The Jungle Book', Louis Armstrong was originally supposed to voice Baloo the bear? He ended up not being able to, but he DID do a cover of 'Bare Necessities.' Yes...there is a Louis Armstrong version, and its awesome.
There's a terrific album called "Rhythm, Country and Blues" that had duets between country and blues artists, reimagining in alternation classic country and blues songs. George Jones did a great duet on there with B.B. King of "Patches". I'm also very partial to Al Green and Lyle Lovett's cover of "Funny How Time Slips Away", and the Alan Touissant/Chet Atkins cover of "Southern Nights".
I'd also recommend checking out the very moving "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes", by George Jones in 1985.
On some songs you can hear George Jones reproducing the sound of the pedal steel guitar with his voice. His style influenced a generation of singers (George Strait, Randy Travis, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks, etc.).
GJ is 68 here and had a terrible car crash where he almost died not long before this performance. He was intubated and it affected his voice.
Love this man.
George was the best that ever done it❤❤❤
The cocaine and whiskey had already done a job on his voice when he was singing this so beautifully. Waylon freaking Jennings had an eight hundred dollar a day coke habit in the Seventies, and he told Jones, Jones was out of control. His being alive at this point would have been a big enough accomplishment let alone in good voice.
Gal, listen to some of his early 60's stuff. One of the best singers in history. Frank Sinatra once said during that time he was the 2nd best white male singer in the USA. He was an old man here, but when you least expect it, his voice, aged as it is would come through.
Have you ever heard the cold hard truth by George Jones for the cover that Drew Barrymore did. And yes she can sing she's the only one that I would trust with that cover other than him. Because she gets the gut-wrenching change that she would give you❤🎉😢. Either or but you should listen to it it's so beautiful. And maybe you might like this but if you ever heard that song Wild Irish Rose.. Worse than Atticus. Punch it's like someone literally rip your heart out and stomped on it but you're going to thank them for it because it's just so beautiful❤🎉.
As someone from appalachia kentucky i was raised with a great respect for George Jones and it's also been referred to as good "drinking alone" music lmao
If you want to hear some classic old school country, give a listen to Lovestruck Duo. They have a channel here on RUclips and they live in Italy. Totally amazing!
One of his nicknames was The Voice of Heartbreak
He was Country music
The studio cut of this song hits a little harder, live performances were always up and down with George and that's not a negative on his ability you can definitely tell when he was fatigued or having a little trouble because of the bad audio in the venue. But this song is one of his signatures for a lot of people because it is autobiographical and I would recommend listening to the studio cut for sure. 10/10 for George.
The idiosyncratic nature of old country is fascinating...before contemporary country became a thing, unique voices were encouraged...try Johnny Paycheck "Old Violin", Vern Gosdin "Chiseled in Stone, Johnny Horton "Whispering Pines" or for sure dive into Waylon Jennings, one of the coolest voices to ever sing outlaw country!
Listen to George sing "take me" from A poem is a naked person
The 'authenticity' of his performance as country music certainly rests to some degree on his southern accent...think of how much would be missing if the Proclaimers sang "Sunshine on Leith" without their trademark Scottish accents...
Hard to hear someone criticize George Jones voice. One of the top singers of all time. Watch the Country Music Documentary by Ken Burns. Waylon Jennings once said if us singers sounded like we wanted to then everyone would sound like George Jones. Garth Brooks said George Jones might be the best soulful singer the world has ever known.
His battle with alcoholism is legendary. His drinking (and drug use) actually earned him the nickname 'No Show Jones' because he'd be too messed up to perform.
Not real big on country but I like George Jones I'm a new subscriber I had one all the way through your reactions but I have not noticed one from Courtney hadwin Shiba Inu artists who is now an independent after being released from her contract finally we're trying to change you into a popstar which is definitely not this year she's released two songs breakable in that girl don't live here would love to see you do one of these I think you really enjoy her music thank you
Another great video! thank you. Could you please do one about Alexandre Pires. I am very curious about your take on that type of voice. XO
Country Music, according to Harlan Howard, "ain't nothin' nut three chords and the truth." That's what brought be from Punk Rock to County Music. When looked at from certain angles they seem pretty alike.
Also, Beth, have you listened to Tyler Childers or Sierra Ferrell? Those two are on heavy rotation in my house.
Greatest country singer on your screen there.. you gotta hear some of his other up tempo stuff, this one is slow for his liking
Lefty and Merle are up there, too.
Really need to review him singing He Stopped Loving Her Today.
You should do Blues Man with George and Dolly Parton
He made some doozies as far as choices. They called him no show Jones for a reason.
Jones's Cold Hard Truth was a superior song and album which included Choices.
Beth Roars?🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍🤪🤪🤪
please watch "george and tammy", the mini series about george jones and tammy wynette. it will show you much of the history of george jones in an enjoyable way, as it was well cast and well acted.
George and Tammy Wynette had country voices because they sang the way they talked with their southern accent. Even the Beatles sounded American.
He had a huge cocaine problem for a long time. You're hearing the wreak of what he once was, and it's still great.
I was 10 when I was there
Its just that he was the best. Acuff. Hank Sr. Alan Jackson. Lots of great country singers. George Jones was the best.
George became nothing short of an institution. He just had this way about him
Good voices = tone, tone and tone. And did I say tone?
It's a whiskey tenor.

Ol’ Possum, he was/is the real deal.
Country and Bluegrass are straight from the British Isles.
I'm curious out of all Georges work you picked this one. Ask any country singer who they wish they could sound like and who the best overall country singer is, its George. i like Keith Whitley its far more emotional for me. but in terms of what captures everything you wanna capture the best. It's George. get the consensus, everybody knows George. not everyone likes Hank but everybody can find a George song they find meshes with their personal jigsaw puzzle.
Also aint the peak of his career and what he sounds like.
Possum aka Dupree 💯
Great analysis, Beth. George was definitely not at the top of his game vocally during this performance, but thank you for pointing out that, sometimes, that's ok. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't check out a George Jones performance when he was in his prime. As many have stated, the song He Stopped Loving Her Today is required George listening. But also check out his cover of a James Taylor song called Bartenders Blues. There's a great live version from Knoxville, Tennessee that can be found online. George Jones truly was one of the best, most unique vocalists of any genre.
Yes! This performance was shortly after he crashed into a cement pillar of a bridge just after recording this song. It is an injustice to judge George vocally on this one appearance. This is probably the worst video she could have chosen
I'm always excited to hear country music from one of my favorite reactors!!! 🤠
That being said, I've been trying to get someone to check out Sugarland. (more pop-country that 'true' country) Jennifer Nettles is one of my favorite voices!!
Sugarland - "Want To"
ruclips.net/video/UJ5cyZtJrko/видео.html
Please, check out "triste canción de amor", by el tri... The best raspy voice
Beth, can you please react to Shane Smith and the Saints cover of Pancho & Lefty. Some amazing four part harmony's to be heard !!
Thank you for sharing George Jones' singing this special tune. I found the link to hear Billy Yates sing it as well... Billy wrote the song Choices and was very close friends to George. ruclips.net/video/D-hlyWN9A-c/видео.html This is one of the times the songwriter sings it as well as the one who made it a hit.
Most older country singers say George had the best voice ever , me I prefer Charley Pride and Don Williams voice but still love george
Whitney Houston is not in the class of George Jones. In this clip he is 70 years old and still recovering from a car wreck when he was drunk driving and crash through a bridge. It took rescuers 2 hours to free him and he was on life support for a week
The possum ✌️
If i live to be 200, ill never see a better singer than George Jones
On my Twitter and Loretta Lynn's. I got a phone call. Don't cry jonie
DONT cry, it's. Don't cry Try not to grab
Good that you’re checking out Jones. Try something older like a good year for the roses (not the duet with Alan Jackson) or this one ruclips.net/video/M6j2YBD--1U/видео.html
George jones of the 60s and 70s no one could touch him
