At 73, this song still brings tears….Sorry my occupation was not around…Jimmy always made my heart sing…so glad that he had a good life…really miss his spirit.
I sobbed nonstop at this beautiful tribute. I don’t typically feel strongly about celebrities but Jimmy was an exception. Tears began to leak from my eyes the moment I recognized the first song of the medley to be ‘A Pirate Looks at Forty’. How fitting to choose such a thoughtful, introspective song as the first part of the Jimmy Buffett medley. Everything was executed beautifully, Jimmy would be proud.
really? you sobbed during Margaritaville?
right here with you in the tears
JIMMY BUFFETT IS THE EXCEPTION TO ALL!!!❤
I still have tears every time I watch this, I still can't believe he's gone
I was a Bodyguard for 25yrs. I've had the pleasure and displeasure of working with hundreds of people and celebrities over the years. I lived my 20s and 30s in a Jimmy Buffet song. Jimmy was one of the nicest most down to earth people I've ever met.This tribute also had tears in my eyes as well😊
I've been watching the Hollywood Bowl tribute and now this with a box of Kleenex. I'm so great ful to have enjoyed Jimmy's music for over 30 years.
Me Too
I'm a 70 year old Pirate myself watching this I had tears rolling down my face. God I miss that glorious man.
@bestever5511 It made me cry too! He will be missed.
I’m 67, been there since the beginning, and feel the same
Last 2 minutes gave me bumps .. R.I.P Jimmy
I still can’t really believe he’s gone.
👊🏼🙏🏼🏴☠️🫧
I loved how Zac Brown honored Jimmy singing in bare feet, shorts, and a Hawaiian shirt !!!
What an honor to THE GREATEST Pirate 🏴☠️ our generation ever knew! RIP Jimmy Buffett as this world will never be the same without you! 🍻🏴☠️🙏🏼🏴☠️🍻
❤❤❤❤😮😮😮t😮😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
A wonderful tribute to our favorite pirate 🏴☠️! RIP Jimmy and may your soul soar to that place known as musical heaven where you can perform with the best of them!
Zack brown literally messed up the best line in the song.
I love that Zac is wearing shorts and no shoes. An un spoken tribute to Jimmy. Fins up.
Omg I first thought he had on tall boots, did a double take😂😂 Alan and Jimmy always the cool dudes😊
Yep and had those legs tan sprayed,lol
Everyone should have worn Hawaiian shirts.
alan puts on Ray Ban Aviators, Jimmy's choice when he was flying. Alan also had to hid his eyes.... a sad moment.... he's getting old too.
i could never understand why people used to gimme a stare in the bars back in the 90's. used to love kickin off me flip flops and rockin barefoot. so cool zac brown and mr jimmy buffet my all time poet
Alan Jackson, Mac mcanally,Kenny Chesney and zac brown band sang the most amazing tribute to Jimmy buffet what incredible performances
I spent 30 years in the US Navy, and retired. I have spent most of my life at sea and Jimmy Buffett had always kept us company. Any sailor who has spent much time at sea can easily relate to these songs. Jimmy will be missed, thank you for the great songs!
I'm sad whenever any singer, actor, actress or sports figure dies. I never cry that much though. Jimmy has been the exception to that rule. It feels like I lost a friend. I've cried so much and I know there will be more. Wednesday night, as soon as Kenny started singing, I was crying my eyes out. Yes, even during Margaritaville. I realized that I will never get to hear him sing it in person and it took my breathe away. Thank you for a beautiful tribute. REST IN PEACE JIMMY. We will never forget you.
Me too, my friend. I have cried a bunch. I am a 61 year old parrot head and have loved Jimmy since the 70s. Saw him in concert. Went to Key West this past May with my adult children and they learned to love his music as well..RIP, Jimmy and thank you foe so many wonderful songs and memories!
I’m 61 spent years playing Jimmy's music crossing from Marina Del Rey to Catalina Island. Been to many concerts of his. The realization has yet to set in. It’s a major loss I didn’t see coming at all.
The one act I wanted to see. Jimmy was like a big brother to Kenny. So glad they recognized Jimmy.
Don't forget Mac!
Brought tears to my eyes, still can't believe he's gone been a parrothead and pirate since 1978 and will be till the end of my life
Rip Jimmy. Love the emotion of Alan Jackson. Jimmy was the best, the most underrated songwriter of our generation.
To me he was the greatest
I agree Jimmy was one of the bests. Jimmy was Far from underrated. Buffett sold over 20 million certified records worldwide, placing him amongst the world's best-selling music artists. "Margaritaville" (1977), is ranked ~234th~ on the Recording Industry Association of America's list of "Songs of the Century”.
That’s not even mentioning the rest of the “big 8” and many others. His lyrics and lifestyle are what made him unique and set himself and his music apart. Isn’t it great we got to share in his time and music. Rest in peace Jimmy Buffett and Thanks for all the memories.
Got his face off of the cover of last mango in paris tattooed on my left but cheek :) Got to show it to him and his wife about 25 years ago, he just asked me how old I was when I had it done. Told him back when he had a full head of hair and my azz was still at the level it was :)
Hardly underrated but he sure will be missed.
That was Awesome!!! Especially, for the man that never really won many awards, accolades or much recognition until his later years. His long-time fans, like me, we knew!!! His songwriting was unmatched. And his concerts were glorious!He never did it for awards anyway, he really did it for music and his fans. I've started listening to Jimmy Buffett since the 70's, before the term Parrothead was coined. RIP Jimmy Buffett😢❤🦜
Couldn't have said it better myself! thanks!
Me too, remember buying our first album with Come Monday, playing it for friends, saying, “you gotta hear this!”
I got into Jimmy in 1980 and I feel like I ALMOST got in on the 'ground floor'.
This was a great tribute and I am so proud of the Cmt awards to do this tribute. I do not know of anyone who does not love Jimmy Buffet He was an 8con
Mac McAnnelly is still around and promised to keep his voice heard in the next generation ❤️
I had a friend who’s band opened for Jimmy at the Civic Coliseum in Knoxville Tennessee in the 70’s.
I got the honor of meeting him at the Hyatt before the show. He was such a gentleman and an authentic person.
That night it was around eleven o’clock. His performance was awesome.
Suddenly the lights came on to get him to end the show. He said , “Turn these lights off, I’ll tell you when I’m finished. I’ve got these musicians and these roadies who get Union wages, and they’re getting what they’re do. I don’t these folks who’ve come to hear me are ready to go home yet.”
The crowd went crazy and the lights went out .He played several more songs plus encores. It’s a night I’ll always remember. RIP Son of Sailor!
Thank You Buck and your post is AWESOME I’m 72 and retired, looking very to chat some
@@johnbutler4235 Thanks for the like. I recently put 9 videos on RUclips @BuckBarker Original Songs.
They’re imperfect and underproduced . I write, perform, and record everything my self.
Have a happy and healthy day. Cheers!!
End of an Era, we saw Jimmy every year beginning in 95, our dearest friends introduced us, they had been going to his concerts since 75. We lost our friends during covid.
Glad that Mac had other talented artists that deeply cared for Jimmy with him.Mac has said that Jimmy was like his brother.Mac is so brave and comforting!
As a late bloomer to Jimmy’s music, I regret never seeing this wonderful man in concert. Thank you for the memories! Rest in peace Jimmy Buffet.
RIP Jimmy Buffet❤ư alan.ăn kenny
My grandpa was a Parrothead and I still think of him whenever I listen to Jimmy’s music. He died less than a week before Thanksgiving 2021 and when Jimmy Buffett died last September, I felt like I lost a part of my last surviving grandparent. I always thought I’d be too young to shed a tear for Jimmy Buffett, but I couldn’t hold them back watching this video because I thought of my grandpa and how much he loved Jimmy’s music. Hope the two of them are having a blast up there
Beautifully done. I think Alan put on his sunglasses to hide his tender emotions for a good friend.
Alan Jackson sporing JB Aviator sunglasses in honor along with all in Island shirts; Zac barefoot in Bermuda shorts ❤😢
He could have shown his emotions, I don't think anyone would have cared.
@@PatrickMcKee1970 I agree
I'm crying just watching this. Miss you so badly, Jimmy! I live in Turkey. One of my Turkish friends who doesn't speak any english, was even sadden by Jimmy's passing. RIP dear poet
Mac sounded amazing for this, and considering what the emotional roller coaster he was on? Much respect.
Mac said a mouthFULL when he said Jimmy made a world full of friends. Couldn't help but love the eternal beach bum, bringing fun to land sharks!
The planet lost a good one when Jimmy left us!
This has me in tears. I spent my summers in my childhood at my uncle’s house in Emerald Isle listening to Buffet and enjoy my uncle’s stories. RIP to Jimmy and Scottie.
Every Jimmy Buffett show I saw had Mac MacAnally as part of the band. I don’t know how he kept it together.
Mac s first public performance after Jimmy died was heartbreaking, and he did cry.
Called to the heavens from mother, mother oceans here on earth. Thank you, gentlemen, for honoring Jimmy with this heartfelt tribute. 🙌
Kenny and Mac singing together about their brother Jimmy Buffett! We are all still in shock! And my heart breaks for the Love Mac had for Jimmy, and it is the same that Jimmy Loved Kenny Chesney so much from the Eastern Tennessee, Hills! All are tears are still crying, Let us enjoy Jimmy and his vission for his future!
It's a sad day in Margaritaville but a great tribute to the man and his music. Vaya con Dios, Jimmy. Thanks for the great music and memories.
Alan looks amazing! Thanks to Zac and Kenny, Mac and most of all to Jimmy for such an amazing adventure!!
It was only right that Alan was up there singing that. I'm born and raised in Florida and boating, island life, and his music go hand in hand. Thanks for the memories, Jimmy. Now you're eating cheeseburgers in paradise for eternity ♥️🙏🏻
Miss you Jimmy, may the wind be at your back always! RIP Jimmy Buffett, great tribute from Kenny Chesney and Mac McAnnally!
I am 14 Parrothead. Even though Jimmy has only been in my life for a couple years, the memories I had with him will be ones I never forget. RIP Jimmy Buffett.
I never thought we’d have to say goodbye to the only good guy pirate the music world has ever been blessed to have. This is a wonderful tribute and made me enjoy all the years of knowing Jimmy via the AM and FM radio; as well as record club 8 track tapes.
Fantastic! They couldn't have picked a better group of guys to do that
What a wonderful tribute to the greatest fun loving pirate that ever lived.
Thank you Jimmy for a life time of wonderful music.
And what a voice he has!
This was the best part of the CMA awards
A friend of mine introduced me to Jimmy’s music in the 70’s or early 80’s. Stuff like The Great Filling Station Holdup, Railroad Lady, etc. Been a fan ever since. R.I.P. Jimmy.
This one hit pretty hard. Perfectly done and a fantastic tribute. Adios and may you rest easy Sailor. The Heavens are a little more beautiful now you’re walking up there among them. Fins forever!!!
When I play this tribute to Jimmy Buffett, my tears run down my eyes! Just thanking all the country music stars that sang these songs!
There are some people that make a difference in life... without the golden spoon up their a55 to help them along. Jimmy started as a bar singer and kept on going... until he made it... a true american success story. Well done Jimmy... a good tribute.
Alan Jackson looks so sad... he misses Jimmy. We all miss Jimmy.
God bless if this isn't moving if you're a diehard parrot head like myself. What a mark this man left on the world of fans, friends, and family. Never seemed to have a bad bone in his body or a bad day in his life and an inspiration to many. God bless you, my friend.
Is there anything more soothing than Kenny chesney’s voice?
Could listen to Mac’s playing all day
We parrotheads thank Jimmy for making our lives better through you and your music!!
Hard to believe that 20 plus years later I'd say wow. A tribute rendition to an old friend would woo my ears so much. Thanks, larry...just a nobody who had a coach help him through a heartache on the beach very early. HOW was he( jimmy))so awake so early? Thanks Mac thanks Kenny thanks jimmy .
"I live on a big round ball..."
With all of the tributes continuing, I think it's Jimmy.
"I'll jump up and smile back at you"
Always smiling.❤
Interesting that you chose to quote Jesse Winchester lyrics instead of something written by Jimmy.
@@NetCerpher I love this song SUNG by Jimmy Buffet. It's my favorite version regardless of who wrote it. I'm quoting the LYRICS to the song.
As a diehard parrot head since 1989 this was such a beautiful tribute to The GOAT. Jimmy’s music has gotten me through so many hard times. RIP legend
Brotherly love…❤😢 Fins up!
How is it possible Jimmy has moved us all for over 50 years and no commercial acknowledgment?
I normally don't watch the CMAs, but when I heard they were gonna do a tribute to Jimmy Buffett, I knew I couldn't miss out. Not only did I record it on my DVR, but I sat through it, waiting for the moment it would come on. Trying to guess what songs they'd perform for him. When it finally came on over an hour in, I called my parents and sister to come and watch, but only my mom did. I kept the recording saved for weeks until I managed to get my Dad to watch the whole performance (he's a Jimmy Buffett fan).
Jimmy sailed off into the sunset, margarita and cheeseburger in hand. Here's to you, Mr. Buffett
Damn it... They got me crying. Thank you Jimmy, from the 14 year old I was, following in your wake to the melting pot existence that's the sunshine state. From A1A, to my first scar on the Bourbon Street bar, to Captain Tony's to get out of the heat ,and to that last Labor Day weekend show and a Monday that will never come.
I loved everything about Jimmy buffet. Especially his music and the legacy it left behind. Farewell sailor! May god grant you eternal rest!
What a lovely tribute to a man who gave the world so much to smile about!! I was smiling through my tears as I watch the love pour forth from the performers as well as the audience. One hell of a fine pirate. Fins up Jimmy, and sail on.
What a beautiful way to honor the ol pirate himself.
RIP Jimmy.🍹
What a wonderful tribute. It made me feel very sad though. Jimmy Buffet was such a kind giving person. Very positive. He donated a lot of his fortune to charities. He was always very kind to fans and really appreciated them like no other singer or actor I have known. It’s gonna really be difficult to know I’ll never see him again up on stage laughing and smiling telling funny stories singing those wonderful songs.I won’t hear his voice singing songs from the new album up on stage. He would’ve had a blast singing them. If I could bring back any three singers who passed away. The first choice of mine would be Jimmy Buffett. Second Elvis Presley. Third meatloaf
A LENGEN THAT WILL LIVE WITH ALL THE GOOD PARTYING PEOPLE FOR. AS A SON OF A SAILOR AND NAVY SAILOR TOO, GOD BLESS THIS THIS MAN, MUSIC, AND ALOT OF FOND MEMORIES.
well...that just killed me. So much joy, such great music...enjoying the memories I have, but missing the memories that were yet to come....
That was a awesome and BEAUTIFUL tribute. Thank you!
Thank you Jimmy for all your great songs. I miss you and love you still. I won’t stop listening to your songs on Margaritaville XM radio. Rest in Peace my friend at your One Particular Harbour
Thank you CMA Awards for recognizing Jimmy with a great tribute. Jimmy was my solice, my happy place, my inspiration. I was lucky enough to witness one of the world's best songwriters in 1975 and then again 18 more times. I regret not making an even 20 with Jimmy but I have a feeling we may meet again at that beach house in the sky, sooner or later!
So happy I got to go yo a couple of Jimmy’s concerts over the years. It’s strange how it felt like seeing a friend. Felt like losing one too. R.I.P. Jimmy 💔🍍🍹⛵️
The world hasn’t been the same since Jimmy passed. We miss you Jimmy you live on in all your wonderful songs that we still listen today. Thanks for a life time of memories.
A Pirate Looks at Forty was the very first Jimmy Buffett song I ever heard so many years ago, was a Parrot Head from that day on. Rest easy, Mr. Buffett. Thank you for all the music.
❤️🦜
Stared singing and crying at the same time when margaritaville came on
I bet that was hard for Mac. Great job, everyone.
Worked for Jimmy and Kenny
Both wonderful people
Still can’t get over Jimmy being gone
No way to get through this without getting misty-eyed. Beautifully done.
Beautiful music to honor the absent friend 🙏👏🎶🎵🎼🇺🇲🤠
From the caribbean Jimmy was one of us now and forever my late dad was a sea captain happy salting
Great tribute!! Good to see Kenny out of the Caribbean closet! It's been a while.
Rest up in heaven Jimmy, no doubt there is a huge party going on up there! We’ll keep your legacy alive down here! Sail on Sailor!!!
What an amazing tribute to an amazing man. Makes me cry every time I watch it! I saw Jimmy in concert many times and have so many happy memories from those concerts. What a loss! Fins up Jimmy, thanks for the happy memories!♥️😥♥️🧉🍹🏄♂️🏝️
I miss Jimmy. What a life he had.
Don't know if I will ever be able to listen to margaritaville again without tears coming to my eyes!
He will be so beyond missed. My heart😞🧡 we will keep the party going, Buffett!🧡🥹
I can't hear jimmy without thinking of my father. he was a HUGE fan and parrot head. Jimmy was the last loss my father ever felt. and he felt that loss deeply. my dad went into a coma around two weeks later and never came back from that. just a couple days before dad died I was in his hospital room, saying goodbye to him for the last time, and from my phone, across the room, I hear music spontaneously... "mother mother ocean.." A pirate looks at Forty started on its own.
gave me chills. he passed a couple days later.
Jimmy played the sound track of my life. He was playing at my wedding. He played while both my sons were born. Thank you my friend for everything.
Thumbs Up to every joyful/gratitude comment that finds it's way here. God Bless, Jimmy Buffett. Thank you God, for Jimmy Buffett. 👍
Awesome tribute to The Man-Jimmy Buffett. Too bad country music snubbed him for so long. Long live the ParrotHead Nation!!!!!
Only time I've ever cried singing margaritaville
We listen to Jimmy Buffett once a week in my house. A pirate looks at forty is a staple. My 8 year old daughter loves it
And that’s how you hold it together
They chose the perfect performers for this tribute. ❤
HE chose them. Especially MacMacanally
So many memories of drives down the coast (West Coast for me) to warmer climates listening to hours of Jimmy Buffett songs. Loved them all but my favorites are "We Are the People our Parents Warned us About" and "Cheeseburger in Paradise".
What a beautiful tribute to there friend,you could see and feel the connection that they had to Jimmie,"rest in peace" Sir,you brought alot of joy into this world,you will be missed
My husband and I took our kids to one of his last concerts on our 23rd anniversary (3/11/23) in Vegas. I kept telling him, “JB’s not a spring chicken! Who knows how many more chances we’ll have?!”
Thank God we did. I’m eternally grateful that my children had the opportunity to see this absolute legend while he was still alive. Total bucket list item, check.
I just got back into listening to Jimmy since he pioneered Radio Margaritaville on SiriusXM, I wish I had the chance to see him live. Excellent tribute.
They sounded great
Gratitude to all for the love and music you sent to Jimmy Buffett during the CMA’s and throughout his lustrous career! So sad!
I love this tribute. I just realized that I've seen all of these artists live, as well as the beloved Jimmy. I will miss watching the live JB concerts on RUclips. Wonderful memories of your music from way back. RIP, Jimmy
Still processing it. I'm fortunate enough to live at the beach and don't think I'll ever look at the ocean without thinking of him.
Make me cry why don't ya. Missing Mr. Jimmy.
Great tribute guys! Loved it!
Jimmy is part of the sunset now. Cheers Jimmy 🍻
I just found this never knew it existed and I can't even see it I'm tearing up The world just doesn't seem as bright without him here
A beautiful way to say we will always love you Jimmy ❤
Heard Jimmy for the 1st time in Naples florida on the beach 1975 I was hooked .
I was 12 years old.
He is a treasure for that laid back vibe
What a beautiful tribute R.I.P. Jimmy
Kenny you are so handsome
I was fortunate to see Jimmy at least 4 times in my life ! Always a surprisingly diverse crowd !
