Marty Ray Project thank you so much. My dad always played guitar drums and sung with me as a kid. You remind me of him. Special request Garth Brooks thunder rolls?
Thank you for your time and pashion for music, all my friends are watching you on RUclips, keep up the good work ,from John Luhrs living in North bend Oregon
Hey Marty, I've been listening to your music for a long time now and always enjoyed it. Man... Things are really, really tough right now and this song has helped a lot. Been on repeat all week man. Thanks for what you do, and if you ever do live shows near TN, I'll be there.
I just lost my only son, Justin, to suicide 4 months ago. He was 24. We would sing this song together when he was little...it was played at his funeral service...you did a wonderful job...I am smiling through my tears
michelle martin I’m very sorry about your son may he rest in peace. I’m at his age and I understand part of the reason. Life was probably too hard for him.
@@Hai.tinh.583 It may be hard life , but suicide is never the solution in this! Life needs life! Hope this mother may find a small rest in her life and i hope you all remember your son smilling to this song! Hope you all well
Right or wrong doesn’t matter anymore, he was young and no one is perfect. It happened. I cannot speak anything for him but only wish he could happy wherever he goes. I hope sad nights will be minimal for his mom. Can’t imagine how it feels to lose a child. She will miss and love him as always..!
i just lost my mom a couple of months ago we listened to this song before she passed it gives me hope that she is still here with me . i love you mom and i will always miss you
My man you will always be in the arms of God no matter where you are or what your going through and you mamma is always watching. Much love to yah brother
I dedicate this song, to my only brother, Phil Corr. On this day , 55 years ago, God gave us, You. I will forever be Grateful. Life has been hard and I know, you have felt alone many times But there has never been a time, You weren't loved. You have endured and God will reward you. I'm so thankful, you now have a good woman, to live you and be by your side. I will always be here for you as you are for me. Keep your head up and always know; You are worthy and You are truly loved. God is with You. Happy Birthday Blessings. ❤️
Emergency First responder here. Finished a shift and sitting here thinking of a million things especially of those sick and less fortunate. Great message for times like this. Thank you for the performance and allowing me to sit still for a few. Prayers and blessings.
Dear Lou - i find it interesting that you would give thanks to the performance- which is most certainly justified... however in my humble opinion all of the thank yous belong to you❤ i think first responder jobs are the most difficult - most critical and most important jobs - period! Without you - people wouldn't even have the chance to get to hospital- bless your soul and please keep doing what you are doing - i knów its an emotional drsin - average people couldn't even comprehend what you see in a day- thank you for saving lives and putting yourself on the front line ❤❤❤
Best cover yet...today I was reviewed to return to work after 2 1/2 years down due to cancer...I am fully vaccinated and volunteer for the Cancer Society every day....just what I needed brother...thanks.
I always love it when folks come stand in front of me and are mesmerized when I sing this or just get up and dance like crazy to my rendition of Zoot Suit Riot :-)
When my uncle passed away from cancer he asked to have this song play at his funeral. This was a perfect cover and brings back memories. Rest in peace Doug
I rarely never write something on RUclips, but your voice and version of this song touched me so deep inside. I listend to it 10 times in a row and hand to cry because it is so beautiful.
To be honoured by the man himself is like being blessed 😇 and I’m not even a religious person but feel the true emotion of this song and it’s raw emotion that lifts the spirits and makes you smile even in times of wondering what it is that makes us soldier on in every day life 😊
I’ve been here listening to this song many times before. This beautiful Sunday morning I’m here again, missing my mom. She gave me the advice “don’t worry about finding the right person, worry about being the right kind of person.” She told me to keep it simple. Thank you for this video. Thank you for helping stir up the good memories and great lessons she gave me.
Brother, my mother passed in 2013 on the 8th of December. This song reminds me of the last talk we had. And as I hear it come from you like the voice of an angel, it helps me get by. I thank you sir!
Great cover man! As the only son to a single mother this song puts a tear in my eyes every time. The story of a mother sitting her only son down to impart her final wisdom on him just gets me every time.
My dads a singer as well and would sing this song all the time at single shows or with his band,I was raised with Lynyrd Skynyrd in my heart and the love for great music.my dad has been extremely sick lately and, your rendition brought me right back to the times where we would drive down the backroads from a show and he would sing this to me.thank you I I hope everyone else gets as much joy out of this as I did.
Prayers for your father, I lost mine a few years back, I love and miss that man! He used to play Simple Man all the time, I will always cherish the memories we had!
I felt really depressed and lonely today and didn’t feel like doing anything but this beautiful bearded man has made me think and be grateful and humble for everyday I am alive. Thank you ❤️
I listened this song when I was 15 in italy where not many people know lynyrd skynyrd, it became my favorite song ever, I'm 40 now and I live in usa since 2013....nothing has changed, still my number 1 ,
Hi! I have 3 Sons. The youngest just moved away last Friday. "Simple-Man" was my goal in raising them, and I can finally play the Song for them at the same time! YOU ARE MY GUITAR-HERO(WITH GREAT CHOPS)! Thanks from Canada. 🇨🇦✌️🎶🌬❤️🇺🇸🌎💫
Mama told me when I was young "Come sit beside me, my only son And listen closely to what I say And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day" "Oh, take your time, don't live too fast Troubles will come and they will pass You'll find a woman and you'll find love And don't forget, son, there is someone up above" "And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can" "Forget your lust for the rich man's gold All that you need is in your soul And you can do this, oh baby, if you try All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied" "And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can" Oh yes, I will "Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself Follow your heart and nothing else And you can do this, oh baby, if you try All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied" "And be a simple kind of man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby be a simple kind of man Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can" Baby, be a simple, really simple man Oh, be something you love and understand Baby, be a simple, kind of simple man
That's the same reaction I had to another performance of this song: "Simple Man cover - Stevie Cain" 2020-05-18 ( 4: 18 ) ruclips.net/video/lG7PSCc2dIo/видео.html Still leaves me speechless.
I lost my dad 10y ago and this was one of his favorite songs. It makes me cry all the time I listen to that song. And that’s truly an amazing cover. Thank you ♥️
Thank you Marty, thank you for bringing blues back. A lot of music today is shallow; it has no soul. But you give life to those cords and those words. Thank you
I'm 28 years old,since i was around 17, my youth was shattered,i was a big mess tilll 2 years ago,where i jump push thru and after many ups and downs,heavy stress and so,i manage to be stable,family is ok,im a banker atm,fit and really enjoying life again,facing chaos and imposing order.Somedays i just go thru heavy stress 12 hours of work,training,house work and so..i feel down but i listen to this song which is my favorite and this cover which is so incredible and amazing and it makes it see things in perspective again and center myself in life again.Thank you for making something so remarkable man.I wish you all the luck and good health thru ur life too you,your family and friends.:)
I've always said, nobody in my opinion, will ever sing it as good as Skynard. BUT Marty Ray, damn buddy if you aint the best 2nd I've ever heard man. I LOVE THIS! 👏🏻
You posted today and it got me to looking through old songs and I stumbled back across this one... I'm in a really dark and confusing place in my life. I have some friends that are like brothers to me. I told them years ago I want this song played at my funeral. I put a couple calls out to remind them of their promise. Even if they just have to do it after the funeral and by graveside. Those men who helped raise me up so many times, I want them to lay me down when it's all over. The songs almost over, and I have to go, duty calls. Big love Marty, and keep on Projectin'!!!!
You’re now my favorite artist. I am a HUGE acoustic fan. Hearing this I’m blown away. This song, the original was played at my uncles funeral. I cried then just as much as I cried now. This song is what life is for my family, well my mothers family growing up. And my uncle continued that life in that same old farm home until he died with stage 4 small cell lung cancer. I HIGHLY appreciate this song, even though it was done several years ago even way before his passing. I’m sure even his grumpy old self would have adored this also! ❤️ you’re amazing!
dude..... first verse and i was all in... simple man is one of my favourite songs, and the way you sing it just hits different, a bit more experienced, as if the song was tailor made for you. hats off to you brother
The first two bars of your voice and I knew you're the real deal my friend. You should be on records everywhere. Good luck and keep em coming.....subscribed!
Dont know how I've never heard of you. And wish I had known about you years ago. I find myself searching for all your videos. Thank you for all the music my friend.
Jesus man, I came across this video because I was looking for a cover of simple man. your voice is incredible (if the English is wrong, forgive me, I'm Brazilian, my English isn't that good)
One of my favorite songs and you man, yeah you made my day with this version! Thank you from germany! Only good men can sing this song, with heart and soul. Everyone who has you as a friend should be proud.
It hurts listening to this cover, the emotion and soul comes through the screen watching him sing. Lynyrd Skynyrd version is hard to cover - this was a great.

Usually don't like people covering simple man, because they don't do it justice. You however, just blew me away. Mad props man . You're the real deal.
Thank you!

Mama told me when I was young
"Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day"
"Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman and you'll find love
And don't forget, son, there is someone up above"
"And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can"
"Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
"And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can"
Oh yes, I will
"Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
"And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can"
Baby, be a simple, really simple man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple, kind of simple man
Just listening is like an intense meditation session cant belive how great this is 10 out of 10
Few people can make you feel what there feeling in a song But you just did it

Thanks so much! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Great voice! Great workmanship! ... one of my favorite songs. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
You did Ronnie and Skynard proud brother. Damn that shit was done right.
Such raw and powerful emotion. Sent shivers through my body.
You posted today and it got me to looking through old songs and I stumbled back across this one... I'm in a really dark and confusing place in my life. I have some friends that are like brothers to me. I told them years ago I want this song played at my funeral. I put a couple calls out to remind them of their promise. Even if they just have to do it after the funeral and by graveside. Those men who helped raise me up so many times, I want them to lay me down when it's all over.

Brother I prayed for you just now. Please don’t ever give up on life. God says when it’s over. 🙏🏻 Love ya brother! Jesus bless ya!

This song was dedicated to me by my mom while I was in a alcohol recovery program. My brother thank you for bringing me back to reality!
Your voice and ALSO your beard.......it.....it soothes my soul.....bless you my brother
The best love letter to your son, and the best way to present it. Thank you for making simple, beautiful.
Please do a cover of Have You Seen The Rain by Creedence Clearwater Revival 😭
That would be excellent!!!!
Omg yes.
I bet he could do a killer version of "The Sound of Silence".
:)
Or long as I can see the light both excellent songs tbh.
Dude, you gave me chills hearing this, the only song that reminds me of my dad. You are pulling on my heart strings bro.
The man sings from the soul!! Simple man!! Best cover I have heard..
You should hear Shinedown's version. This guy's voice reminds me of it.
Always said that being a simple man and leading a simple life is not a bad ambition. I also love this version of the song.
OH MY GOD your voice, you my friend are AWESOME!!!
Thank you!

Chills!! Voice of an angel. A burly, bearded angel!
Wow, didn’t expect that voice to come belting out. Amazing stuff.
Lynyrd Skynyrd shared your video on their Facebook page.
Simple chords, simple man, not so simple if you try singing it though.
The envy I feel when I listen to this man. Simply great!
Can you please tell me the chords?🙌🙏
It hurts listening to this cover, the emotion and soul comes through the screen watching him sing. Lynyrd Skynyrd version is hard to cover - this was a great.
Marty ray is the man love listening when I'm working hell when ever I can
Words cant explain the emotions this gives me...
guess we need more words huh?
what a strong voice, man , i can swear that even the life had stooped once you started singing.
If this man called for Angeles they'd listen.
What a voice Beautiful
I love that song and seriously dude, that was the best cover of Simple Man I've every heard. You have an awesome set of pipes. Thanks for sharing.
