Awh, I am a 67 yr old woman and at different times in my life, I have been deeply in love with all of these beautiful souls, they saved me through the tough times, bless them and still love them, TY!!! ❤😊
You are my age.my friend and I tried to crash a party at Johnny Cashes house once. He had a pool shaped like a guitar. My friend was barefoot with no shirt on so we didnt stand a chance of getting in.
I'm 73 yes old. I attended their concert with several friends. Now Willie and Kris are the only ones left. They were the best with Waylon and Johnny and to me the nemory of them will be forever.
ı was born in Turkiye when ı was meet johny cash and willie nelson early times now im 49 years music, art for all the worlds. I like country and blues music. I think jhony cash and Willie Nelson they are legends :).
I’ll be 86 on 06-08-24, and I Love them more than ever. I listen to this version and another, much earlier. The both bring tears of sweet memories to mind.

There will never be country legends such as these four "outlaws". Together as The Highwaymen or individually as Johnny, Waylon, Willie & Kris they are the best of the best.
A sad day for those who listened to Kris Kristofferson for decades. Going back to the college days of laying on the floor in the hot apartment and listening to Kris who dragged us into a poetic trance. He's so brilliant and yet so humble. May his family find peace in the days and years to come, and thank you for sharing your special husband and father with the world. We are a better place for his never ending genius in the world of the Arts. (He clearly respected those that helped pave the way for his never ending talents).
Kris Kris & his family to read.There is no one I know of that I could brag on more than Kris. You should hear Tina Turner doing her number loving him was easier they are both simply the best. I like all the songs that Kris wrote including the ones he wrote for his dad, spouse & children. Very "heart" felt.
The life of Kris is an example to everyone to follow your follow your dreams, to turn your back on a successful army career, give it all up to work as a janitor to try and meet Johnny Cash and hopefully get him to sing his songs. His music has been part of my life since 1970 and I feel blessed to have heard it.
My dad played Kris's(and the Highwaymen's) music since I was born, and now, after dad's departure to higher pastures, I will play the music till the bitter end, and hope to introduce the newer generations to it for a long time.
My dad was also a fan of the four greats of which Kris was a part. He used to tell me about Willie playing in a suite and tie in the beginning to try and "confirm". Now he's the only one left and I have lost my father as well. As the daughter of a country music loving Yankee from New Jersey I cherish all the memories these men have brought me and my family over the years
I'm 26 years old, and if I were told to pick just one moment to attend from the past, I would choose this one without a second thought. Without even considering other places I could go to.
I have believed for a long time that Kris Kristofferson is and will remain one of the great poets of our time. His lyrics dive deep into the heart. His music resounds and the lyrics touch the soul. Thank you sir.
Well written comment, Robert. Your words captured Mr. Kristofferson's genius. His writing touches our soul with or without the music. The music just gives the words another layer. Thank you again for the comment, sir.
I agree completely. I grew up listening to all of these great men and although I respect them all, I truly believe that Mr. Kristofferson's poetry will ring strong throughout time.
Yes, I noticed that look, too ... and, of course, Kris was hearing Willie's natural voice, unedited by the pitch correction that has been applied in this RUclips video upload. If that ain't sad, then I don't know what is.
Kris is a genius at writing songs. It’s such a pleasure to see all these legends performing together. RIP Waylon and Johnny. We’re blessed to still have Willie and Kris still with us.
I love how humble Kris is, you can see the admiration and the love in his eyes as he watches Willie sing and play his song, the same thing can be said with how he looks at all of them through the whole concert. He has the deepest respect for all of them and it shows with his actions and his expressions. Kris is a class act.
yes and at the 3 minute mark you ca see jennings say something to Kris and Kris replies, 'that's my song and willie in background smiles so proudly great guitar solo.
PRICELESS ....So very sad that they couldn't carry on into the 2022 ....sure could have used some uplifting music.... Priceless performances with some truly great singers 🎶🎼🇨🇦💘🎵😍
I was born in 1962 and turned 62 July 2024.ear buds in blasting that music and locked the world outside. I can relate to this song. Been there done.the late 70s 80'S 90's were the best. Back when things made sense. Still here August 2024!!!!
kristofferson can find a truth , give it a voice and a simple melody , and suddenly there is a vision of something brittle, ragged, and holy . this is the mark of a true poet .
Wow I always told all my children never ever bring a yank or a Vietnamese as what they put us thru in the Vietnam war and then I met a single Vietnamese girl and I then had to tell them all that I had fell in love with her and at last I found happiness I never ever thought. I would and I always did sing to my new true love loving her was easier and it changed my life for the better ,Jimmy watterson
My husband died last December. I get it. Kris Kristofferson's music and lyrics have been a part of my life since the 70s. And now he, too, is gone. This song especially is one of the most beautiful love songs I've ever heard. Bless you in your grief and pain: you aren't alone.
This was the best version of this song I've ever heard, Willie & Kris killed it on the vocals & Willie blew me away on the guitar (Trigger). Waylon clapping to Willie was cool as hell. LOVED IT!
As much as I love all of these legendary men, and this retention of the song - Anita Carter did this song the best - her vocals on this song made it sensual and awe-inspiring. Though this is Kris's song, every time I hear it in my mind it is with her voice.
Look how happy Kris is. And you can see the respect from the boys. The man is an Icon, some of his songs made them icons as well as others. Willy is awesome on this, we won't ever see talent like this again folks, enjoy the hell out of it while you can.
@Jeff Brewer : you can say that again ! Individually & Collectively , they are " an era unto themselves " & you're right, we won't see talent like this again😉 . Hoping their health holds out so that they can continue to do what they do best. A hearty "Thank You " to them for sharing their talents & spreading ❤️ throughout the world !! From NYC .
Ah, aren’t hey just so great. Such talent on that stage. Never tire of listening and watching the love they have for each other. Their music will last forevermore.
I am so thankful that all of these country music men were in my time. Willie, Johnny, Kris & Waylon - what more would you want. The absolute greatest of the great.
I'm grateful that my Dad who lived to be 96 years of age and both of my brothers lived long enough to hear and enjoy hearing and watching them and so many others that sang real country music. It brought them real enjoyment before they passed.
@@anelladambrosio2513 sono così felice di rivederti , sono stato in grado di inviarti un messaggio Anella , puoi aggiungermi su whatsapp ora per favore , sono stanco di cercarti ovunque .
Never be another bunch like these guys. The way those boys watched Willie kill that solo was so reverent, so joyful. Country the way it was, and always should be.
Does anyone notice the admiration, the fellow playing piano has when he looks at Willie when he takes off on his own with Trigger? Nothing but love of a talented musician.
The mutual respect, admiration and friendship they shared between them all is incredible to see. No egos, all outstanding country musicians in their own right. There will never ever be another Willie, Waylon, Johnny nor Kris again, individually or together as a group! Long live the original country outlaws, I’m so glad & thankful I got to live thru this era ❤️🙏
To Diane Lindberg, Thankyou for putting in words exactly how I feel , all these Guys are so special, but of course we all I guess, have the one that is first in our hearts, mine is my Johnny Cash, and 2nd is Chris, Our world is richer for them. Thankyou Diane Dee
In the pbs documentary about country music, multiple people remark that the opening 4 lines of the song were so perfect they could only be written by God himself. How else do you explain such perfection? God bless Kris.
That awestruck look of "Damn, Wille! Sing it, brother!" from Kris is just priceless. This is country music that just can't be matched by music nowadays.
OK. I like the Eagles and lots of other groups, for that matter. But these guys never fought with each other. They all respect each other's talent. When Waylon claps for Willie, it is a class act. I come back to this over and over; wish I had seen them altogether live; I've been fortunate enough to see Waylon twice and Willie four times, and I am grateful for that. Kris is such a great song writer, and I've always loved Johnny. Together, they are incredible. Thank you for posting this.
I kind of like to think it's because the highwaymen, for the most part, started out as friends and respected each other vs the eagles where Frey and Henley were friends but the whole idea of the eagles was commercial, which is why they went through a few members
How can there be 446 people capable of finding this yet not capable of recognizing the greatness. The writing, singing, joy of playing together, such a special group performing a great song.
Stephen, they don't know what they don't know. The rest of us sit in awe of the music, the talent, and the absolute awesomeness of what will never be again. And try not to be too sad.
I just came across this by accident, so beautiful four legends I have always loved Willi Nelson, the four of together outstanding music, I'm really happy I came across them, XXXX
4 of the Greatest country singers each bringing their own special feel to each song they sing but blending together so well !!!!!! Wonderful !!! Long live country 💙!!!!!!
The more I watch this clip, the more I love these guys. I must’ve watched this 30 times thru the years and it never gets old. Man I wish I could’ve seen all of them in that tour.
I love how, even as big stars, they are each willing to share the limelight. That demonstrates true and deep friendship and devotion to their music. How did they get so old so fast?
@ yes he did I love that video because they were all trying to work out his style and timing and then it all clicked in and slowly I saw awe in there faces as they each admired what he was doing as he took the solo, my goodness I loved it
What an awesome combination of great guys. This is Majestic at it's best. Maybe never happen again. R.I.P. Waylon and John. Gone but will never be forgotten.
Unfortunately because of reuploaded autotuned and pitch corrected old live performances like this by the anti-human record companies, their real live performances and how they really sounded live will soon be forgotten as all original material is being replaced as we speak. This is unfortunately an altered dehumanized version.
These guys are all legends in their own right, all capable of packing a venue solo, yet their love for music and mutual respect and love for one another was more important that solo accolades. Thank you, guys.
If there was one gig I wish was at.
Can hear this every day!!!
Willies guitar. No words ❤
Voces, canciones, estilos, pero la guitarra de Willie sin palabras, coincido.-
❤
❤
Trigger is the guitar's name. It is a Martin N 20 and Willie has been playing it since 1969. It goes with him everywhere.
historic guitar ! think it´s 500 years old ;-)
No wonder his son Lukas is becoming an accomplished guitar player when you have instruction from one of the best.
And to think Kris doubted his singing ability and his equal stature within the group. He belongs on the Country Mount Rushmore as much as his heroes.
yeah that dude brought a heavy weight to his writing
Kris was amazingly talented, way underappreciated by many! My Momma loved him & those blue eyes! We've lost one of the best of all time! 😢

I think Willie Nelson has earned the right to be call the greatest country music star of all time . He been great 4 so damn long
And that's coming from the biggest George Jones fan in history
RIP Kris Kristofferson. Thanks for all the poetry you gave us.
Who - of all of singer songwriters who ever lived - wrote better poetry and soul-moving lyrics than Kris Kristofferson??
He's a poet, he's a picker, he's prophet, he's a pusher, a pilgrim and preacher and a problem when he's stoned.
He’s a walking contradiction partly truth and partly fiction.
@@maryharris8050 takin every wrong direction on that lonely way back home

I have only started to listen to him in the last year or so, and learning to play his songs. I totally agree. The best lyricist ever in my opinion x
Very well put and I couldn't agree with you more
Watching Waylon clapping for Willie's playing is beyond belief. Miss him and John.
For me this is the greatest country concert. They killed every song, not one wrong note. Thanks for blessing the world.
Killed every song obviously means something different to you and me.
Brings tears to my eyes. Great entertainers, the likes of which will never be seen again. A truly wonderful era.
Came here as soon as I heard the news… Rest in Peace Kris. This song is one of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you for blessing us with it sir ❤
There will never be another group like this.
Agree
For sure!!!!!!!❤
The look on Kris's face as he watches Willie bring his masterpiece to life is unreal 🙂

And now it's just Willie.
1950 - 2000 what a glorious time to be alive! Thank you Jesus!
One of the finest performances ever by Willie Nelson. His guitar playing simply cannot be described with words alone. What a great performance!
RIP Kris. Thank you. ... Willie is all that's left, to sing this like it should be sang.

Hello how are you doing my friend
@@christiandonaldson31 z,
You Just Have to Keep Coming Back, Because this is Pure Class. Alan
I kind of like to think it's because the highwaymen, for the most part, started out as friends and respected each other vs the eagles where Frey and Henley were friends but the whole idea of the eagles was commercial, which is why they went through a few members
Oh Chris was whistling with Waylon was singing are you sure Hank done it this Way a lot of respect between these gentlemen
How can there be 446 people capable of finding this yet not capable of recognizing the greatness. The writing, singing, joy of playing together, such a special group performing a great song.
Jealousy
446 people with poor taste! Beautiful song! RIP Mom❤💯🙏
Who cares about them!
Don't worry about them. Just leave them behind.
Stephen, they don't know what they don't know. The rest of us sit in awe of the music, the talent, and the absolute awesomeness of what will never be again. And try not to be too sad.
Hard to believe he made it to 88 with all the things that went on in his life. RIP
Willie and Kris still with us. Thank God
Sure thing, legends all. I had one chance to see this stellar ensemble The Highwaymen, I blew it.....
Greetings from Ireland .
Kris has announced his retirement from touring, got to see him the last few times- the great songwriter of our time!
They all live in our hearts and memories!!!
Just thank Willie and Kris. That's enough.

That Harmonica compliments their guitars so well!!! What a great song, I’ve never seen Willie play like this
Loving her was easier than anything I'll ever do again, the man who experiences this is a rich and blessed man
These men, legends that they are, have given us so very much. I am humble and thankful.
Me to.
@@stefanmalm3617 me to they can not be replace .this is the last of the great breed.
You damn right...what talent...what legend's!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the best show by them
I just came across this by accident, so beautiful four legends I have always loved Willi Nelson, the four of together outstanding music, I'm really happy I came across them, XXXX
4 of the Greatest country singers each bringing their own special feel to each song they sing but blending together so well !!!!!! Wonderful !!! Long live country 💙!!!!!!
Hello dear,how are you doing,how is life over there?
@@davidmoore1517 it's cold here but xmassy though
@@pamelastephens4213 LOL,where are you from?
UK 🇬🇧 but a very cold UK at moment but my music keeping me going !!!!!
Stunning.
The unmistakable voice of Willie together with Kris is legendary!
Hi ,how are you doing,how is the weather treating you today,can we be friends if you don't mind?
Four top musicians and a support band. That's all it takes for absolute top music. No laser no flash no idiocy. Just music as music should be.
The words, the voices - all of them, the music: the older I get, the more I am moved.
that guitar solo by willie nelson on loving her was easier than anything I'll ever do again - brilliant! knocks it out of the park.
Michael , not much is said about Willie’s guitar abilities . I always wondered why . A Texan
Ole trigger works pretty well .. lol
I never realised he was that good ..... wow !
Waylon could not take his eyes off willies picking
Waylon had eyes only for willies picking
kris can write one hell of a song.
but cant sing
@@ricardocaldera5024Sorry!....He can!
@@ricardocaldera5024 huh

@@ricardocaldera5024 do your ears work?
The more I watch this clip, the more I love these guys. I must’ve watched this 30 times thru the years and it never gets old. Man I wish I could’ve seen all of them in that tour.
This was a huge hit in them 70s
I love how, even as big stars, they are each willing to share the limelight. That demonstrates true and deep friendship and devotion to their music. How did they get so old so fast?
Hello 👋 Sandra.
@@jimrobert7239ciao Jim!🙋😊😍😘🌅
All great performers, but Kris is the greatest all-rounder. Superb musician, songwriter, singer and actor. There is nobody else in his class.
Definitely a genius
I have never seen nor heard Willie be any better than this. ...He must have been feeling at his best on this night to perform this way.
Effortless, isn't it?
@gobigorange that is quite a lengthy time. I'm just thankful that this was recorded.
Really? As great as he sounded hes struggling a lot on this set.....
Amen I agree with you
Willie at his best
I just can’t stop listening to Willie’s guitar solo, I must be listened to it about fifty times tonight ❤I just love the four of them
Even Waylon gave his approval.
@ yes he did I love that video because they were all trying to work out his style and timing and then it all clicked in and slowly I saw awe in there faces as they each admired what he was doing as he took the solo, my goodness I loved it
Fantastic song done by true country performers.I cannot get enough of the ghiraar solo as done by Willie.
Who watching this video in 2024
I love you, you are not alone
❤
UK here. ❤

sept 22 2024...look at this great video in the Netherlands
1st of October 2024. One Highwayman left. Odin, protect Willie forever.
What an awesome combination of great guys.
This is Majestic at it's best. Maybe never happen again.
R.I.P. Waylon and John.
Gone but will never be forgotten.
Unfortunately because of reuploaded autotuned and pitch corrected old live performances like this by the anti-human record companies, their real live performances and how they really sounded live will soon be forgotten as all original material is being replaced as we speak. This is unfortunately an altered dehumanized version.
Such respect and admiration for each other is admirable,, 4 of the best singers and songwriters of our time!!!
only one treasure left now, it was a hell of a ride. r i p kris we'll miss you. glad we have your music to remember you by.
A lovely piece of guitar Playing ( good old trigger)👍🏻these guys are superb x
Yes, even Waylon was impressed 😊
These guys are all legends in their own right, all capable of packing a venue solo, yet their love for music and mutual respect and love for one another was more important that solo accolades. Thank you, guys.
I surely miss John and Waylon..
Sorely missed ! Great days, thank god fr u tube !
