Dirk, so true...though this reminded me of some old (1972) Gram Parsons/Emmylou Harris duets, from the album, "Return of the Grievous Angel" - if you haven't heard that, I'm quite sure you will love it.
Elvis was Elvis in '56, but his version can't hold a candle to this one. Different times/different arrangements/different talent. What no one mentions is this was part of a tribute album to the Louin Brothers, who, along with dozens, also recorded this song. All the compliments herein are dead on.
I grew up so long ago with this is the kind of music I first listened to and it's not the religious aspect in my case but the memories of the people that raised me that always get me teary-eyed.....
This song is on a CD titled Living, Loving Losin. It is people commemorating the Louvin brothers songs. If you can find the album/CD/Download, the whole thing is amazing.
Man what a pairing of two great voices ive been in love with Alison ever since I first heard this lady beautiful and talented and james Taylor what else can be said about this young man perfection in voice and musicianship such a beautiful song and pairing of voices
In 24 days it will be 2 years. I miss the man he showed me for 4 year's or I thought it was. I wish him all the best. Our memories will always be special so will the songs we shared. I don't really believe he's forgotten me.
Almost 2 years later now. 21 months now. September 29 will be 24 month's of being strangers with someone I used to have conversation with and share hugs and I love you with. I thought that we were friends. I can honestly say I never hurt him. I never would have. I still have compassion. I still pray for him..I can sleep at night knowing this..I could get a apology from him then I could move on. I just miss him. He was my music buddy.
Me to when iv got my ear phones on I repeat and repeat only thing is I sing along to it can't hear myself my hubby said is that the only song you know your shouting it 😂😂😂
@@diannedineen153 Karafun (online karaoke provider) has this version and Elvis' 1956 version. A friend who I sing duets with sometimes sent me the link to it, and we might try it someday. 🎤😎
This is one of the best country duets ever, hands down. Two pros perfectly complementing each other. Art you can listen to. I didn't know that Elvis recorded it (1956) Apparently it was written by Chet Atkins and the amazing Bordleaux Bryant.
This just blows me away , Perfect writing and the best two voices in my long lifetime . Alison is perfect in every way and James is no doubt the best male vocalist I ever heard . I love them both .
Oh, but you can't go back, ... while they're singing, the past seems real. Memories, sweet to bitter, make your heart feel the joys and the pain all over again. Alison & James you make us hold back the tears we thought we had shed completely. Conflicting emotions boarded up years ago, torn open. I'll blink my eyes, maybe no one will see. I hope the world treats you better.
BRAVO!! I’ve been a James Taylor fan from day 1. Many years ago! And Allyson, well who could not love that angelic voice. She just meshes with anyone and everyone she sings with
WOW HEAVENLY MATCHED 🫶🏽🫶🏽👏👏🙏🙏🌺🌺🌺THIS SONG ALWAYS TAKES ME BACK TO MY MOST DIFFICULT TIMES WHEN MY WIFE AND I DECIDED TO SEPARATE BECAUSE SHE COULD NOT DEAL WITH MY MILITARY LIFE.💔💔WATCHING HER AND MY 4yr OLD SON AS I DROVE AWAY TEARS AT MY HEART 🥰🥰😭😭
Man! From the first time I heard this several years ago, I instantly fell in love with the song. The harmonies are outstanding and they sound amazing together. Haven't heard this song in a while, but still love it!!
Is it ok to cry every time I listen to this song? I'm 67 years old and alone.
It's ok I'm 76 and crying.
I can relate with you and I am 80.
I am 70 and the same. But it is OK.
It sure is
I will be your friend and I love your spirit
The stars aligned in order for this to happen. The song writer, the musician, the producer, and those two voices. Thank you Universe.
Those who know, freaking awesome
How can such a sad song make you feel so happy, that’s the magic of Alison Krauss.
Absolutely what an amazing voice
Not to mention thee magic of James Taylor!
I love it!
Just beautiful! If there is anyone who doesn't love this song, they don't have a pulse!
Two singers but ONE VOICE. Beguiling. Perfect sound.
Hello Amy..
WERE THEY NOT BLESSED TRULY WITH THE MOST PERFECTLY HARMONOUS VOICES TOGETHER ,THEIR VOICES ARE TRULY HEAVEN SENT
Thanks very much you 2 beautiful people very much.
This is what you call a true classic.
I just love this song. Great singers .🙏🙏
Stumbled upon this, and ahh my gosh its so beautiful!
Oh my God! I just realized that he was James Taylor! I guess it's cause before this video I only heard it on Spotify.
If there are two voices singing more beautifully, I've not heard it.
Spot on Dirk
Dirk, so true...though this reminded me of some old (1972) Gram Parsons/Emmylou Harris duets, from the album, "Return of the Grievous Angel" - if you haven't heard that, I'm quite sure you will love it.
@@skyshotsflorida950 Yes, love all that stuff. And so I'll share my favorite duet of all time on RUclips.

@@dirkbag22 Yessir, this is a classic!
@@dirkbag22 What is your favorite duet ? The link is no longer working. You have my ears curious to hear it. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful... love it
This is the best duet I ever heard. They really touched my heart !!!

Hello Dorothy..
Allison is great, but not the KIng.
The Elvis version has a slightly different melody but projects desolation far better than this version, nice though it is.
Jim Reeves sang this song beautifully. I go back and forth between his recording and this one. 🔥💗
Disagree. This version doesn't hold a candle to Elvis, a truly great ballad singer.
One of the most simple, honest songs ever written..
Preformed with absolute perfection. 👏
I grew up so long ago with this is the kind of music I first listened to and it's not the religious aspect in my case but the memories of the people that raised me that always get me teary-eyed.....
Absolutely beautiful,makes me tearful. James Taylor has always been above many in the music industry, and to pair him with Alison pure genius.❤️
Yes, aren't they magical together x
❤
Still loving them both!
Two amazing voices together! Such a wonderful performance!
Two of the best ❤❤❤❤
The best but the best
Floored me... 💙🎶💙👍

Allison's voice must be how an angel's truly sounds like.
I love hearing James and Allison sing together. Beautiful!!

It's 2021 and I'm still here
Produced and directed by the great Carl Jackson!
I sometimes play this song over and over and over again. I will never get tired of listening to it. It certainly pulls at my Heart Strings!
Hello beautiful lady

Yes,
I listen to it at least twice every time !
😢😢😢
Me to when iv got my ear phones on I repeat and repeat only thing is I sing along to it can't hear myself my hubby said is that the only song you know your shouting it 😂😂😂
This song couldn't be any more right 😢
WOW...just WOW!!!!!
To be loved like that and missed like that.........
This is the best duet I have ever heard! Two of the most beautiful voices, complimenting one another on every note.
Wish I had someone to sing this with me!
Ja, dem kann ich nur zustimmen....Ich liebe die 2 Sekunden, wo James lächelt.
Ein Duett, was mehr als unter die Haut geht...

Hi Janet💐💐
Wow, the lady on the sax is so talented. She plays it fantastically 🎉🎉❤❤
I think this every Sunday. I just don't believe he could forget 4 year's
😮 life has blocks, floods, ditches & potholes and there are many flowers & gardens too, keep going, life is short. Live it. 😊🎉
That put a tear in my beer.
Beautiful duet Not often 2 voices blend so well. I play this over and. over. I would love an entire album of beautiful love songs with this pair.
Hello Ladeane..
@@fredjensen5477 I totally AGREE!
This is one of the best country duets ever, hands down.
Two pros perfectly complementing each other.
Art you can listen to.
I didn't know that Elvis recorded it (1956) Apparently it was written by Chet Atkins
and the amazing Bordleaux Bryant.
Also recorded by Eddie Arnold and by Jim Reeves.
Thanks, so interesting ☺
Thanks for sharing the info!
Elvis, Jim Reeves, beautiful! This song was meant to be a duet!! Allison and James nailed it!!!
What beautiful music. Thank you for sharing! Two beautiful voices! Thanks Gordon for piano playing!👏👍💯🎼👋🏻
If the angel's in the choir don't sound like this I'll be disappointed. Beautiful harmonies.
Wow! So glad to find this. The great James Taylor paired with the most wonderful Alison Krauss. It couldn't get better. Just beautiful! ❤🌟🤗
This song was originally done by The Louvin Brothers; but Allison and James are killing it!
This song was recorded by Jim Reeves in 1958.
Sweet Baby James and AK! Union Station! And to make it even better, the beautiful piano by the great Gordon Mote!
Elvis sang this song. A different rythme, but also so beautiful. Elvis, with his powerful and caressing voice. Elvis! Ah!
the King
Alison & James nailed thus classic & make the world of music a better place to be in...❤
Everything she does is absolutely gold. James Taylor and Alison doesn't get any better.
James held his own with Allison, just beautiful.

This just kills me, so sad and beautiful. Really hits close to home...
OH I CAN CRY LISTENING TO THIS SONG. SO SO BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU. SO MUCH. LOVE IT. NILANI.
Such memories listening to this. Beautiful ❤
This song sounds as beautiful on this cold November 25th 2022 as it did ten years ago
Hi Connie 💐💐
Love Allison so Lovely. Sweet .. so Sensitive .... James was a fave back in the folk song Era.
Hello Anne..
I love to hear Allison sing, what a beautiful voice, beautiful woman.
Man! From the first time I heard this several years ago, I instantly fell in love with the song. The harmonies are outstanding and they sound amazing together. Haven't heard this song in a while, but still love it!!
Beautiful !!!! Beyond beautiful !!!!
Alison, one of the most beautiful ladies i the world!!!
Gordon Mote on piano. Such a gift.
Beautiful song. A year and half later I miss the old him. He's a stranger now and I doubt he misses me at all or remembers me
Applause!
Maybe I've made a comment already but good golly this woman can sing. Together they were stunning. Out of Africa
More please from Alison and James together, more duos :) Gorgeous.
Wow! Over the top!
