Chris Staplelton does the best version of this song by far, and that's saying a lot, since I loved the original version very much. What a great voice he has, and it's a pleasure seeing his wife sing along with him. Of course, Dwight is always good. I've loved that guy since he was a young punk. Saw him twice when he performed at the University of Minnesota auditorium - best shows I ever saw, and I've seen so many over the years. A great performer, Dwight, and cute too.
He looked down into her brown eyes And said "Say a prayer for me" She threw her arms around him Whispered "God will keep us free" They could hear the riders comin' He said "This is my last fight If they take me back to Texas They won't take me back alive" There were seven Spanish Angels At the Altar of the Sun They were prayin' for the lovers In the Valley of the Gun When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared There was thunder from the throne And seven Spanish Angels Took another angel home She reached down and picked the gun up That lay smokin' in his hand She said, "Father please forgive me I can't make it without my man" And she knew the gun was empty And she knew she couldn't win But her final prayer was answered When the rifles fired again There were seven Spanish Angels At the Altar of the Sun They were prayin' for the lovers In the Valley of the Gun When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared There was thunder from the throne And seven Spanish Angels Took another angel home There were seven Spanish Angels At the Altar of the Sun They were prayin' for the lovers In the Valley of the Gun When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared There was thunder from the throne And seven Spanish Angels Took another angel home Alright ya'all help me now There were seven Spanish Angels At the Altar of the Sun (Oh I believe) They were prayin' for the lovers (Yeah they was) In the Valley of the Gun (Well, well, well) When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared There was thunder from the throne (Oh, yeah) And seven Spanish Angels Took another angel home
I've heard a few Chris Stapleton songs and I like them, but I haven't dove in yet. The fact that he plays a jazz master and he performed with Dwight Yoakam are the things that are making me want to.
Seven Spanish Angels indeed. Nice country version by these noted performers. Great words & touching, eh? A Joyous Noel to You & Yours! From Leo in the town of Alamosa in the beautiful San Luis Valley of Southern Colorado USA. Check out Leo's Christmas on RUclips (Garyskiman L) 🎅🤶🦌❄☃🎵🎄🎁✨🖖🙏
I guess Chris Stapleton has to "grow on you". He was OK with The Steeldriver's, but I'm not a fan with him on his own....just not my "cup of tea". Too much screaming and yelling for my taste. Sorry C.S. fans...that's just me. I know you all wanted to know.....
YOU'RE GONNA HATE YOURSELF IF YOU DON'T CHECK OUT HIS FULL BODY OF WORK. HE'S SO BIG NOW WE DON'T REALLY CARE THAT YOU ARE THAT SHORTSIGHTED. YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVEN'T HEARD. PLENTY OF SONGS THAT HAVE NO HOLLERIN'. ANOTHER TRY A HEART LETTING GO YOU SHOULD PROBABLY LEAVE AMANDA THE RIGHT ONES IT TAKES A WOMAN WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO? IF. IT HADN'T BEEN FOR LOVE THERE AIN'T NO EASY WAY I DON'T NEED.A REASON DRAGGIN THE RIVER MORE OF YOU WHEN THE STARS COME OUT DADDY DOESN'T PRAY ANYMORE WITHOUT YOUR LOVE A SIMPLE SONG DRUNKARD'S PRAYER FRIENDSHIP DEATH ROW THEM STEMS THE DEVIL NAMED MUSIC. UP TO NO GOOD LIVIN' NOBODY'S LONELY TONIGHT TRAVELLER & MANY MORE WELL YOU GET THE IDEA! HAVE A GREAT LIFE & MAKE SURE TO ENJOY THE MUSIC.
Two people that are not fans of Chris. The first two I have ever seen post that. I cannot agree with you and I thought he and Dwight were surprisingly great together. I really like both so I guess I shouldn't be surprised
Yeah, and the Mona Lisa was just paint slung on a canvas. He may not be your "cup of tea", but his voice is undeniably amazing. No other artist I know could pull off a Ray Charles classic, a tribute to Aretha Franklin, James Brown and Prince and do it phenomenally like he has done! Adding Dwight Yoakum to this duet was genius! Like Chris, he arrived by way of his own path, and they did a fantastic job! Who else in the biz could do a Ray Charles/Willie Nelson tribute and do this good? I'll be over here waiting.... Just all in fun but I can't criticize them!

Good gospel country music. Seven Spanish angels gives me hope. I hope I see the ark angels myself.

Do yourself a favor and lookup Sierra Ferrels live rendition of this song. It's really really amazing 👏
Hall of fame worthy!
As a 53 year old country music lover, I love Chris's voice, and he did an amazing job, but there's only one Ray Charles.
Amazing performance!!
Why do folk have to compare singers, just sit back listen to the words and enjoy. I Chris Stapleton is amazing and can sing his ass off!!
Wow ! What’s not to love about that performance, absolute perfection 👏👏👏👏👏
Great performance by 2 great artists!
Uhm, there are 3 up there lol
@@phillipstroll7385 apologies. You are absolutely correct!
Great performance by two great singers 💗

Che meraviglia! Una grande performance! 👩❤️💋👨😍😍🤩🤩😘😘🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶💘♥️💔💯💯💯
Deep voices, strong story. Strong voices, deep story. And what a brass!😮😅
That gave me chills.
He looked down into her brown eyes
And said "Say a prayer for me"
She threw her arms around him
Whispered "God will keep us free"
They could hear the riders comin'
He said "This is my last fight
If they take me back to Texas
They won't take me back alive"
There were seven Spanish Angels
At the Altar of the Sun
They were prayin' for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish Angels
Took another angel home
She reached down and picked the gun up
That lay smokin' in his hand
She said, "Father please forgive me
I can't make it without my man"
And she knew the gun was empty
And she knew she couldn't win
But her final prayer was answered
When the rifles fired again
There were seven Spanish Angels
At the Altar of the Sun
They were prayin' for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish Angels
Took another angel home
There were seven Spanish Angels
At the Altar of the Sun
They were prayin' for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish Angels
Took another angel home
Alright ya'all help me now
There were seven Spanish Angels
At the Altar of the Sun (Oh I believe)
They were prayin' for the lovers (Yeah they was)
In the Valley of the Gun (Well, well, well)
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne (Oh, yeah)
And seven Spanish Angels
Took another angel home
Wowwwww

I JUST LOVE THIS❤❤❤❤❤
this is just the best!
WOW
Wonderful
Just as good a rendition as the one by Ray Charles and Willie Nelson in 1984
❤❤❤❤
Tenéis razón
❤️❤️❤️
Dwight Yoakam is the greatest of all time-Chris Stapleton is terrific, but even he can’t hold a candle to Dwight.
Amen. Dwight is in a league of his own, God how I love him. ❤
Yeah...the retired league.

What's that blurred frame for?
for curious people
I like Chris Stapleton but he doesn't have a voice close to Dwight Yoakams.
Agreed 100%-Dwight is the greatest of all time.
Que se fastidien no haber faltado el respeto
I thought it only average.
Not bad but I still like the originals Ray Charles and Willie Nelson. 👍
As great as Ray was and as great as Willie is, Dwight and Stapleton (but especially Dwight) blew the original out of the water.
Ray and willie version is better

Not much of a fan myself, he did a couple good things when he played with the Jompson Brothers.

Garbage can't beat ray and willie! Leave the classics alone
Incorrect. Dwight blows anybody and everybody out of the water.
