I have the same thought, Jeff. There is almost a whisper when they harmonize together. George's harmony here is beautiful. Tammy's voice is just as beautiful. The two of them had the most unique voices. The clip showcases this. They sang another song after this one. Try to find it.
Here I am in 2023. I remember when this first hit the airwaves. I still adore this song and those two singing together. He's from Vidor and I grew up in Orange.
One of the greatest IF NOT the greatest duets in country music history . You could tell that they still loved each other , sometimes love just isn't enough . Where have all the greatest country artists gone ? Because they sure aren't in Nashville. As George asked , Who's gonna fill their shoes ?
Hopefully Hank the third, Alan Jackson’s kids, and all the rest of their kids will turn out to be just as good as them, because we all know most of the modern guys we have now are pretty bad, definitely not living up to the classics. Edit: I retract my previous statement saying that all modern artists are bad, only most of them are. Ive found Colter Wall.
@@jordangamesvlogs9892 Randy Travis was wonderful as are a few others that are around. I hope he gets his beautiful gift fully back despite the stroke. Nothing's impossible with God.
Country music really doesn't get much better than that. They lived their life an open book and that song says it all. Two amazing performers in their own right but dynamite together........forever!!!! xxx
You can see the ‘pure love’ they had for each other in their eyes. Their fighting was notorious...but Tammy & George sure could sing a tune together. We miss you both so much! 🥴
Every time I watch this, it never fails that I cry each time I see her start to get teary at the end, George puts his arm around her, and then she wipes away fallen tear drops. I'm so glad they agreed to do this, and we all get to witness the endearment that they still shared.
@@Flo-jr4fl its fake because everytime you see them perform this song on RUclips at different places she pretends he spits at her more then once exactly the same time in the song.
I know the pain firsthand of loving someone so very, very deeply that I couldnt be with because of alcohol. I know he loved me and I still love him and always will. He’s been gone 15 years and not a day goes by that I dont think of him and wish he was still here. It was so sad to see Tammy and George cry for the love they still had for each other.
One of my favorite quotes from Tammy is _"Jones is my hero and he always will be. We might not be able to be together but he can still make me smile and cry with his music."_
She was wiping his spit off of her face... Living with an alcoholic myself for many years, ((thank God he sobered up)) when they have been drinking, especially if they are a little tipsy, and George was 90 percent of the time, they have a tendency to spit when they talk.. LOL...
You know damn well Tammy loved George till her end, the way she always looked at him, it was LOVE !!!! BUT there is nothing worse than loving someone so much and still not be able to help them, I've been there and done that , BUT I still love the guy to this very day and had hoped one day Larry and I could of finally got it together, but it still hasn't happened yet !!!
The Chemistry just oozes out of these two... Anyone who has been down the divorce road probably gets this... You can feel the intensity as they wipe away the tears.
Ita amazing to see the love and chemistry they had even 2 years after the divorce. They didnt split up because they didnt love each other, it was his drinking that drive her away. I think they were soul mates.
I don't remember the year but Tammy was giving a concert close to Lou. Ky. A number of us went to see her, and her and George hadn't been divorced too long. Tammy had just recently married the piano player in her band. After she had sang about six songs when out from behind the state curtain came George Jones, you could tell Tammy's expression was like all those in the audience she was as surprised as everybody else was. George took Tammy's hand and they sang about six or seven songs together, George just bowed and left. What a great thrill it was to see and hear Tammy and George singing together. It was a wonderful night, one I'll always remember. Seeing the two Icons and Legends of Country music performing together was totally unexpected and what a super night it turned out to be. .
i don't think they ever stopped loving each other, they just realized they couldn't live together anymore without destroying each other. they were too professional to show anything other than respect for each other in front of the public.
Books could be written about what's going on emotionally here. Suffice it to say, I think they were always the love of each other's life, they just couldn't make it work. One of the greatest duets ever.
@@manichairdo6346 I think Travis Tritt said it best, when Tammy died in 1998 everyone said who would of ever thought George would outlive Tammy. If it wasn't for Nancy, George wife, he wouldn't have. Nancy saved George, but George always loved Tammy, even Nancy never disputed that.
@@christophersherrell4592 the sweetest thing about their divorce is that they never stopped talking to each other and never hated each other and they both remarried but george jones once referred to Tammy's husband and his husband in law lol he very much loved her she was the one that got away for him for sure
Both of their voices are so unique and they sound amazing together. Ugh, hit me right in the childhood. They started to cry a little, I couldn't take it! So beautiful
Thank you share this video I enjoy listen to both them . Back 1970s on radio . God bless Queen of country Music and King of country music. There music live on forever. I love show Pop goes Country I watch back old golden Days
I am not today’s country fan at all. But this stuff is the best. My folks listened to this stuff. I can barely watch them sing together without tearing up.
I used to love putting differant records on for my parents as a child me and my sister used to argue on who could change the record. Believe me this song was played so many times i think we wore the record out live them both and god bless my parents who have since passed in 2006.
You can tell Tammy was holding back, she could've really gone higher but she was trying to sing as soft as George was. Awesome duo. They complimented eachother very well. Now this was country music!
I love how you can tell that the song takes on an entirely new meaning for the both of them. They obviously still care for each other and wish things were different, check out the love in George's eyes! This vid brought me to tears, thanks for posting :)
They still loved each other it's obvious ..it's just some people can't get their sh*t together...doesn't mean that they don't love each other. Such a sad situation to be in.
Such an awesome couple with so much love still for each other. Now they are with the big guy above and sharing their music together. still today they live in our hearts and memories of what at least I believe as a couple.
Not everyone knows this kind of love and pain. I don't necessarily recommend it, yet some are fated to it. If you know it, you know it. And you know you know it; although you cannot properly describe it to others who haven't known it themselves. Therefore, it is a lonesome sorrow, hard to comfort. Regardless, it changes you forever.
This is true country music.... Today `s country is more like rock mixed with country it is not true country.. I am 24 years old and a big country music fan and I listen to old country and some 90 `s country.
golden ring , one of many songs my late mother loved , my mom passed a way way too early March 15 2015 she cryed her eyes when this man passed so George n mama RIP . . .

I think that might be the worst pain. When you love each other so much, but you just can’t be together.
You are so right.
Nothing is sadder than deeply loving someone you just can’t live with. Their love is palpable. I’m glad they reconciled before their deaths.
It really hurt to see the love they still had for each other, and knowing that it wasnt enough. Im glad they became friends again too.
Tammy wiping a tear said it all. I cry every time I see it.
I can relate so much to their story.
You are so right. My mom said the same about them.
We just need to, purge!!! Pew, pew! I got your back.
Who is listening to the classics in 2022?
I am 72 and I'm still listening to Tammy and George ❤😢🎉🧚🏽♀️💌💕💞💚💦🔥💯😭
Ya know what I love about these two. They never tried to sing over one another. The best in country music
thats confidence , and respect .

Hello Susie how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
RIP George and Tammy
One of the greatest IF NOT the greatest duets in country music history .
You could tell that they still loved each other , sometimes love just isn't enough .
Where have all the greatest country artists gone ? Because they sure aren't in Nashville.
As George asked , Who's gonna fill their shoes ?
You need to look at Margo Price and Ashley Monroe
Hopefully Hank the third, Alan Jackson’s kids, and all the rest of their kids will turn out to be just as good as them, because we all know most of the modern guys we have now are pretty bad, definitely not living up to the classics.
Edit: I retract my previous statement saying that all modern artists are bad, only most of them are. Ive found Colter Wall.
Too many electronics these days why it's not as good as the oldies

Amen
Probably the greatest country duet ever. Two REAL stars of country.

She’s not wiping a tear. His enunciation caused spittle to land on her face.
@@Flo-jr4fl its fake because everytime you see them perform this song on RUclips at different places she pretends he spits at her more then once exactly the same time in the song.
@@pattihouston9050 you seem to have a point that she does exact word on this song have to agree something doesn’t seem right
@@Flo-jr4flyes, you see the same thing in many performances. George soon learned when she wipes away, he should too, to cover his tracks
Reminds me of Sonny & cher getting together to sing "I got u babe" on Letterman one last time before sonny died...
Who is still watching this in 2021? One of my Favorite Song. How this brings back old Memories. WOW!
Two of the best vocalists, singing a song with such tremendous harmony's, pure country gold
This perfomance is the most heartwarming and heartbreaking things to ever happen on planet earth
I love how George always changed the songs around Everytime he'd sing one, he never sing a song the same way twice.
This song gives chills almost every time I hear it.
❤❤. Rest In Peace 🕊️🕊️ Beautiful. Tammy Wynette ❤❤
❤ wow great memories of my people playing this growing up!
Never be another due like this. Pure magic
wow those were the good old days,they dont make them like that anymore
I'm 24 years old to sutherngirl. I love country music
Wow still gives me cold chills the greatest talent ever combined in the history of country music
I love this. I could listen to this over and over.
Wow! How I have memorues of those days.
Effortless. Tears and joy.
You can tell they are still in love with each other, she crys and he gives her a comforting hug!
She couldn't look at him until he began to sing. you see her melt. Master Duo, indeed
@Wagner PD sad part was his dig at her
Maybe she could get nervous and couldn't sing😊
None of George Jones ex wives ever said anything bad about him
@@pamelagonzalvez5801 who wouldn't be nervous singing next to George?
LOVE that they try to deny hide but just could not....
A timeless classic that will live forever. A piece of history that should never be forgotten. Beautiful.
MAN, this breaks me in half every time i watch it
The greatest song ever written
Such a touching song sang by the king and queen of country. They are timeless !
Tammy ain't the queen but George was the king.
Love these 2 Tammy and George both. Can t get enough hard to put down their music and turn off.
I know the pain firsthand of loving someone so very, very deeply that I couldnt be with because of alcohol. I know he loved me and I still love him and always will. He’s been gone 15 years and not a day goes by that I dont think of him and wish he was still here. It was so sad to see Tammy and George cry for the love they still had for each other.
Love this song, especially the ending as she sheds a tear.💦
Pure Class. Pure Country.
Still in love
It wasn’t a tear, she was wiping a bit of spital from her face
One of my favorite quotes from Tammy is _"Jones is my hero and he always will be. We might not be able to be together but he can still make me smile and cry with his music."_
She was wiping his spit off of her face... Living with an alcoholic myself for many years, ((thank God he sobered up)) when they have been drinking, especially if they are a little tipsy, and George was 90 percent of the time, they have a tendency to spit when they talk.. LOL...
@@K.Swift1968 hmmmm.
This right here is pure country gold, don't get much better than this
Notice how George holds the mic a little further away from his mouth, so as not to dominate Tammy's voice. Well done.
Tammy got 1 of the best voices in the music industry period. She's got like a loud,deep grunge voice.
Good observation. I didn't even come close to even think about looking at that.
Or the fact ol possum is hammered
Any time George does a duet he really tries not to be the dominant voice.
They both left this world loving each other!! Now they are again ONE
From Texas. Nothing better than them.
❤. Rest in Peace 🕊️🕊️ George Jones ❤
You know damn well Tammy loved George till her end, the way she always looked at him, it was LOVE !!!! BUT there is nothing worse than loving someone so much and still not be able to help them, I've been there and done that , BUT I still love the guy to this very day and had hoped one day Larry and I could of finally got it together, but it still hasn't happened yet !!!

When he said “ Tammy said one things for certain I don’t love you anymore “ hit hard. Rest easy possum!
This type of country reminds me so much of my Granny. She loves this music so much. Inspired my love of country.

That must have been awesome to see

WoW...that would be a memory for sure!
68 or so
The harmony is heavenly.
I love old country music.
The BEST couple in Country Music history

What a Country Music pair. Tammy Wynette from Red Bay Alabama and George "Possum" Jones from Saratoga Texas. Miss them terribly
very great song back in the days 45 or 60 years ago. the good old days. Davis, Tennesse, 🤠😎🌍🌎🌏🌐
If there was a Mt. Rushmore of country, George Jones would be on it
AND TAMMY MERLE CONWAY JIM R.
He is forever the king
He is On It now, Bless.
Both of their voices are so unique and they sound amazing together. Ugh, hit me right in the childhood. They started to cry a little, I couldn't take it! So beautiful
BEAUTIFUL COMBINATION. Milwaukee here I come is another perfect example
I've watched this so so so many times for a man of 38. And I've only just realised they are weeping! Heart!!!
Thank you share this video I enjoy listen to both them . Back 1970s on radio . God bless Queen of country Music and King of country music. There music live on forever. I love show Pop goes Country I watch back old golden Days
I am not today’s country fan at all. But this stuff is the best. My folks listened to this stuff. I can barely watch them sing together without tearing up.
There'll never be anyone like you, George--thank you and rest in peace!
You don't ever see people like this in today's world. You sound much like a devout fan like me, are you?
This is true country.
Such a beautiful couple
When they cry at the end it always makes my cry too. They were a sweet and talented couple... Divorce is so harsh!
I used to love putting differant records on for my parents as a child me and my sister used to argue on who could change the record. Believe me this song was played so many times i think we wore the record out live them both and god bless my parents who have since passed in 2006.
I can't imagine how complicated their relationship must have been.
But out of that came some legendary music. I'm forever grateful 💞
The President and the First Lady of Country music !! It doesn't get much better than this. Back when Country Music was COUNTRY MUSIC !!!
You can tell Tammy was holding back, she could've really gone higher but she was trying to sing as soft as George was. Awesome duo. They complimented eachother very well. Now this was country music!
Hello Stephanie, how are you doing?
One of my Favorites that they sang together. How precious! 🎉❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Reminds me of the tunes the old guys listened to when I was a kid in Alabama.
This is old good country!!! Like Conway and Loretta!!! 2020 still great!!
beautiful
I love how you can tell that the song takes on an entirely new meaning for the both of them. They obviously still care for each other and wish things were different, check out the love in George's eyes! This vid brought me to tears, thanks for posting :)
pure class both of them
Genuine country music no longer exists. Thanks to RUclips, fans of real country music can spend hours listening to past country classics.
Through all the bad times and sadness they had whilst married , this video shows just how much love was still there .
How I miss these two. God rest their souls.
They still loved each other it's obvious ..it's just some people can't get their sh*t together...doesn't mean that they don't love each other. Such a sad situation to be in.
I grew up with these songs
Such an awesome couple with so much love still for each other.
Now they are with the big guy above and sharing their music together.
still today they live in our hearts and memories of what at least I believe as a couple.
Well , They're back together , again . This time forever . I've loved them , since day one .
God I love Tammy, and George singing is just lovely.
George and Tammy -- the best male and the best female singers in country music history.

This is true country music.... Today `s country is more like rock mixed with country it is not true country.. I am 24 years old and a big country music fan and I listen to old country and some 90 `s country.
So true, now they are adding in Hip Hop!!!

My thing is that is you are going to sing country then sing country don `t try and mix other music with country music.
agree 100 %

Pure Country Gold.
I've never seen a performance that was so awkward and amazing at the same time.

Sorry for your loss. And it was sad when he passed as well. May they all RIP
all i can saw is i think Tammy and George still loved each other RIP
What a women, what a man..
Country the best sound everrrr!
We will NEVER be replaced.
I love George and Tammy - I go to bed every night listening to GJ on my IPOD
The greatest duet of all time. If this classic was performed today the music would be secondary. The obvious would be the only thing talked about.
