The stage lights up when Tammy appears! She was like a comet blazing across the cosmos,leaving a trail of light behind her,which still shines to this day.
Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette, Conway, Loretta, Johnny Cash, Grandpa Jones , Stingbean, Roy Clark , The Carter Family, I could spend all night remembering my favorites
Now I know why this was George Jones favourite song because his favourite male singer Merle and the love if his life Tammy sang it together . 3 legends of real country are up in heaven making more duets together RIP legends
@@debbieveasey4224 Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe
Tammy Wynette what a voice! Not only a very strong voice but, always in control and on her sad songs she literally has a tear in her voice, it can't be duplicated.
She was asked about that catch in her throat when she sang. She said it just happens, and she has no control over it. She could, however, control the rest of her singing. Funny that the part that really set her apart was something that just happens.
The real deal! No fancy voice enhancers or echo machines, just plain old fashioned good and pure singing from two real singing stars, showing the world how it's done. great show and great post many thanks
I would take a hundred Tammy Wynette's over a Carrie Underwood or any other so called country artist today...the molds have been broken with the passing of Loretta Lynn and Tammy, may they RIP.
Truly a classic...it just doesn't get any better than this! This is when country was really country and country artists were genuine! Not 1 hit wonders.........Merle and Tammy your are a god send!
Agreed... I've voiced similar opinions in various forums and some have agreed while others championed current 'stars' like Chesney and somewhat 'in-betweens' like Alan Jackson. I find them all to be posers and mediocre pop star wannabees that picked country as a commercial venue. Mr. Jackson for instance has a bit of twang in his voice but no discernible song writing ability and seems to capitalize on world tragedies in order to tug on people's heartstrings (and wallets). I find him to be a poser on the highest order. If you want to realize how people can fake it like him... listen to Kevin Bacon doing country on SNL (which btw, is a much more talented individual than many of these so-called country stars today).
I've lived a long hard life...and when i hear this song..all those years melt away...and i'm a kid in the kitchen singing this song with my mama..I cannot express my thanks enough to you for posting this song...thank you.
Some songs just give me goosebumps - this is one of them. It's fabulous when Merle does it alone, but here when Tammy comes in it just blows me away!!!!
When I first heard Tammy singing Apt #9 back in 65 (?), I instantly fell in love with her voice. She was/is/always will be my favorite female country singer. As for Merle, he could sing to me every day and I'd never tire of hearing his smooth voice. What a duet partner each of them made and what a gift each of them are to fans and good old country music, the way it was meant to be.
Tammy steals the show whenever she was on it. She can belt out those notes without any look of strain. She makes a duet seem so easy. This couple IS COUNTRY MUSIC. Love 'em.
Country music was so very good back in those days. What a team Tammy and Merle were great together. Not many topped these two. To have met Tammy in person was indeed a great honor for me even if it was long ago. I love you still Tammy - you were easy to love.
One of the greatest duet singers, singing Merle's hit song! First heard this through my mom's ole 8-track player! Sad to see why people dislike sound like this. Merle Haggard is still George Jones favorite singer!
What i think about country and western songs is that its a real song with Slice of life emotion. Bless all the country song, they are the TRUE AMERICAN singers.
Classic song! You can fully understand the power of Tammy voice when your watching this on your phone and it vibrates in your hand when she lets it out!👍👍👍
RJ 1999 and it was seemingly no effort to her. She could stand there not moving a muscle, and go from soft to full volume and back again, if it wasn't for the heart on her sleeve feeling she put into it, she could have been figuring out her grocery list while all that was going on. Unlike the contortions so many singers go through, to show how much power they're putting into it.
I discovered this yesterday and whilst I have heard of Merle, I've never heard any of his music but I am a country music fan. This is an absolutely haunting love song that leaves a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye every time I hear it.
Yes I’m a fan, who wouldn’t be, they are so fantastic. I have someone who I like just a bit more. Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris, if you’ve never listened to them you should.
I just love this short but great footage of Merle & the First Lady ,wow so much greatness with these two,and the great friendship is just so obvious rip you are two of the greatest. Wow did they shine,the saddest thing ever was watching them leave the stage,still loving them both April 2020 & beyond
I've listened to dozens of country singers. Merle is by far the best voice, and the best band. It's all top drawer! Very talented musicians. His arrangements are always excellent. Many songs have different arrangements.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
Still not tired of Tammy's unique voice. 45 years and counting.
Love her singing
Tammy what a powerful voice
The greatest country voice ever imo along with George Jones. So powerful.
The stage lights up when Tammy appears! She was like a comet blazing across the cosmos,leaving a trail of light behind her,which still shines to this day.
A duet from heaven. 100% pure real county that never gets old.
@Hello How are you doing dear
Agreed 🎶🎸🎼💯💯💯
I really don't think anyone epitomized country singing any more than these two. Tammy, God bless her, lived the life of her songs and so had Merle.
They sound awesome
Anita carter was the best
Merle & Tammy, two of the best voices this world has had the pleasure of listening to, miss them both!
@@gregnormal5101ciao amico! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🌅
How beautiful she says that, my hero. A real country princess. Thanks for the beautiful duet, you two.
Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette, Conway, Loretta, Johnny Cash, Grandpa Jones , Stingbean, Roy Clark , The Carter Family, I could spend all night remembering my favorites
I miss waylon jennings and tammy
Wow man, Tammy's voice is so freaking powerful. It touches the soul.
They made magic together, R.I.P. the angels are lucky listening to you both 🎶🎶
she puts Merele to shame
@@judemcmaster574 sooooo true💙
What a lady...
I agree with you.
Now I know why this was George Jones favourite song because his favourite male singer Merle and the love if his life Tammy sang it together . 3 legends of real country are up in heaven making more duets together RIP legends
And arguably the 3 greatest country voices of all time. George Jones, Merle Haggard and Tammy Wynette. Pretty hard to argue with that list.
George most favourite song was the footlights from merl haggerd he said it loads of times
@Hello Jim how are you doing
If there’s a Hall of Fame for Singers, Songwriters, AND Musicians, Merle needs to be in them!
Two of the best voices ever in Country Music...
No one had a voice like Tammy. The first queen of country x
Love Tammy and Connie S but DOLLY P Is my number 1. Nothing but beauty talent and a wonderful kind caring person

You don't need a echo machine ' that place echo's on its own.
Great singers. Never gets old. Merles guitar an old friend . Sure played it well

Right on!
Mighty Merle, what a voice, and true artist. No one will fill his shoes, that you can chalk down in the history books!
Two of the GREATEST country singers that ever walked on this earth.
Thanks for posting this.
I would take a hundred Tammy Wynette's over a Carrie Underwood or any other so called country artist today...the molds have been broken with the passing of Loretta Lynn and Tammy, may they RIP.
Agreed!
Including that brain dead phony Taylor swift
I agree 💯
Only one Tammy Wynette that ever sung. I. Have listen & watched her for many years 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
You named two of the best female country singers ever. Merle was one of the greats true talent.
Tammy and Merle oh lord together again and again. Love it 😍
A true treasure captured for all time. Tammy and Merle both survived the hardest beginning to reach super stardom!
My God what a voice. Tammy is country music. The Queen an King of Country music. Leaves everyone in her wake.
Mick Killeen, Mick I always thought Tammy was a whole genre all by herself.
Tammy is my favorite female country singer of all time, no one today can touch her.
Connie Smith is also awesome!
Reba too
Probably the most iconic of all performances of Merle's song. Tammy brought heart to one fantastic song!
Truly a classic...it just doesn't get any better than this! This is when country was really country and country artists were genuine! Not 1 hit wonders.........Merle and Tammy your are a god send!
Never heard Tammy's voice quite like this....they are both amazing
Hello how are you doing today?
Tammy's voice just goes through your soul!
+dorothysue1 - In this particular song it went through my eardrums.
Well, just thank your lucky ol' ears.
dorothysue1 together unstoppable
Saw her in concert and yes her voice was the strongest most beautiful that I've ever heard!!

*_great reminder of what a gorgeous & gifted lady, Tammy is was & always will be..._*
Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson, my all time favorite singers, none of the "now" singers can come even close.
True

You got that right!
I've lived a long hard life...and when i hear this song..all those years melt away...and i'm a kid in the kitchen singing this song with my mama..I cannot express my thanks enough to you for posting this song...thank you.
Such a simple song but an absolute classic, maybe my Haggard favourite. Plus Tammy and Telecaster, no one will ever surpass this.
Some songs just give me goosebumps - this is one of them. It's fabulous when Merle does it alone, but here when Tammy comes in it just blows me away!!!!
Absolutely!!
same here
Goosebumps, yes. Discovered this a year or so ago, and still getting them right now. Merle's best song, best ever singing partner bar none.
i hear yah brother ..amen !!!
Merle is as a great songwriter as he is a singer. His songs are not recorded often enough. He has a wonderful way with a lyric.
When I first heard Tammy singing Apt #9 back in 65 (?), I instantly fell in love with her voice. She was/is/always will be my favorite female country singer. As for Merle, he could sing to me every day and I'd never tire of hearing his smooth voice. What a duet partner each of them made and what a gift each of them are to fans and good old country music, the way it was meant to be.
What a superb version this is. Merle"s best, plus his guitar solo bit and Tammy"s beautiful addition, And this is live.
Wow ... Tammy knocks it out of the park!
she forgot the words
Two of the BEST in country music. May they RIP together again
Guess I don't need to put my comment up there! That was exactly what I was going to say!!
Kris kristoferson
Jen duncan
Lin Lou いいね
I never knew she was dead., Now I'm fkn sad!
Damn! Tammy started singing at the hairs on my arms stood up. What a voice!
Pure Country Gold... Merle and Tammy my goodness ❤️
That was so cool. Bonnie coached Tammy a little and told her to get out there and sing with Merle. Worked out great!
Perfectly 👍🏿👍🏿🎶🎶🎶
Merle was one in a million. RIP

Tammy steals the show whenever she was on it. She can belt out those notes without any look of strain. She makes a duet seem so easy. This couple IS COUNTRY MUSIC. Love 'em.
So is Johnny and June, Waylon and Jessi, and George and Tammy
Yep, ol' June and Johnny "Jackson" still a good one I never tire of hearing.
Rex TexasAggie Yep and "If I Were A Carpenter". Waylon and Jessi did "Suspicious Minds" and of course George and Tammy did "Golden Ring".
+Rex TexasAggie and Loretta & Conway
Rex, man she could just stand there not moving a muscle and this great sound would knock you flat. Just effortless.
Those great Merle guitar licks, priceless...:-) And as a bonus you get those great sincere country voices! Love it....
Good grief. Two of the best country voices ever on the same stage. That was sweet.
Tammy's voice 1 of the greatest ever in country music.
Reminds me of all the good memories, 82 years old and I am fell myself young again. When i hear young songs. God bless him and may he rest in peace.
What a voice Tammy
He never changed who he was or his music. Poet of the common man.
One of my all time favourite Merle Haggard songs
Love both of them, powerful voices !!!
Their chemistry is perfect. They made magic on this track
@@vince2056 ciao Vince!🙋😍😘💘💓
