When i was a kid my grandma would send me to the neighbors house to take a plate of food because they were sick. On the way out my grandpa told me to take the lawnmower with me and show them how good I was at mowing grass. They were people in our church. This was how I was raised. People took care of each other. I so much the days when life was simple. Care for your neighbors. Love each other. God bless you all.
Mr Kristofferson is so humble and respectful of Mr Cash.... what a great friendship and musical relationship those two had. I love it. I love this song.
wow this happend 9 years before i was born and today i sit here 24 years old and watching 2 masters doing this lovely song together over the internet. I can only give thanks to the world for the internet witch enables me to watch all the musical masterpieces of the time before my birth. Thank you. Rest in piece Jonny
This song always makes me well up with sadness with the poignancy of the lyrics and the beauty of the structure and music, These are two of the greatest artists in any time.
I can see the peace of sobriety in Jonny in this prefomance. I'm so glad he had such a wonderful wife, and friends that helped him pull himself together. He really lived.
What a treat for John, to get to perform this with the guy who wrote it and so many other great songs. And what a treat for Kris to get to perform this song with the country legend who made this song famous.
Kris K. is such a modest top class Artist and his legendary status never changes his decency! Johnny Cash was so genuine saying such beautiful, complimentary words to Kris K. Kris is such a pleasure to look at and listen to.....God Bless them all!! Sad song in my depression or out of it....love it!
It never ceases to amaze me how many people continue to view and comment on Johnny Cash videos, almost ten years after his death (September, 2003). It is a testament to the man's greatness and his incomparable contribution to country/folk music. And we should also appreciate the great Kris Kristofferson who is still with us and still making music.
I grew up with Johnny Cash, June Carter and The Stattler Brothers, so They are like family to me - Thanks God for letting me knowning the best of country.
The only thing that can make this song any better is seeing both these guys performing it together when you put two Icons like this together it’s just more Magic
Kris Kristofferson is such an interesting person; he's a Rhode's scholar; a brilliant songwriter..wrote "Me & Bobby McGee".. & also a top notch helicopter pilot; served during the Vietnam war. His father was a highly ranked, military officer & thought Kris would follow suit. But, instead Kris moved to Nashville & pursued a music career. Johnny Cash was his hero & Kris started out there, cleaning recording studios; one that Johnny worked at & Kris once said, that when he first met Johnny, he was doing drugs, especially speed & Kris said, that Johnny looked like a live wire, all in black, skin & bones, twitching. But, he adored Johnny & wanted him to record one of his songs & actually landed a helicopter in Johnny's backyard, to get his attention. It worked.
+AbbyNormal777 Yes my older brother taught me that when I was 16! I had seen Johnny Cash and June Carter way back in the 80' , followed by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson in the 90's and finally last year I got to see Kris !!
+Doak Turner Kris has a way with words. he can set a scene with one short sentence. Find a recording of his called "the best of all possible worlds" off the Bobby McGee album (if you don't already know it). Lyrics are brilliant.
love listening to Kris and Johnny my dad introduced my siblings and me to these great men and their sound we love the music and enjoy it today thank you dad RIP
Being the ex-wife of an alcoholic Vietnam combat veteran (who is now sober), I can attest to the authenticity of these lyrics. Whatever words I heard here I could once see in the tormented, hung-over morning eyes of my husband.
Ditto on the thanks for your husband's service, DivineSimply, and for your service, James Smith! You're so right about the authenticity of the lyrics. It was so weird when I first heard this song (over a decade and a half ago) how it took my mind right back to Sunday mornings in my own life. Though I was a Christian at the time, memories of going through a time in my life having wild Saturday nights (not just those nights, if I'm honest) then skipping church the next day while hungover, spending Sundays by myself came flooding back. Wise lyrics with a good lesson in this song Kris wrote. God bless you both and your families!
People forget were they come from, they just need to take a little time and come down to earth. I did listening to Johny and Chris just brought me back. how cool is that so simple old hero's never dies in my mind.
Not only gave us beautiful music they have beautiful hearts and love one another have you heard the song kris wrote for john called john that beautiful too thank you from ireland
I've worn may a "cleanest dirt shirt" lol. These are two of the greatest artists in the history of Americana. I thank my father for introducing me to such great artists and music at a young age. Looking back I would think that his taste was corny, boy was I way off! Thanks again POP, love you.
LOVE ... not like... but LOVE this team singing this song... so very much ... so much ... so much... so many layers... so much history... so many tales.... thank you.... wow.
that's amazing the simple fact that Johnny gave the credit where it was due. He was/ is amazing, just cause he passed doesn't mean that his spirit is it's in his music & fans hearts. If it wouldn't have been for him we probably wouldn't know who Kris Kristofferson was, & that would be a damn shame.
With all due respect--and that's a LOT of respect--to Johnny, if we had to make a choice between having only Johnny Cash or Kris Kristofferson in our culture and completely exclude the other, I'd take Kris every day of the week and twice on Sunday. It's because of the reason my son was invited to be in so many bands even though he was just a slightly above-average average drummer/vocalist. He was told by many front men: "Hell, players and singers are a dime a dozen. We need guys who can WRITE!" Everybody's glad we never had to choose.
One of my favorite songs of all time by two of my favorite musicians. Still tend to prefer Kristofferson since he wrote it, but who doesn't love Cash? All around excellent music, in any case.
One of the best country songs ever written or sang, I used to say you could smell the frying chicken and hear the church bells. At the time Kris wrote it he was a troubled man but he found his way out of it and the world is a better place because of it
It is just FANTISTIC the tallent some of us were blessed with. When you can put beautiful words on paper, then write the most perfect music to express those words, wow, then to top it off you are able to sing, and share it with milions of poeple. Music is, a beautiful teacher. Thank you to all those out there who, have and are and will , Let Your Light Shine. God's gift's to you are blessing you with tallents, your gift to God, is how well you use those tallents. thanks' forever
Love them both!! My Dad was in a country band all of his life and could always pick some Johnny Cash Tunes. He always said that Kris wrote this song and Johnny sang it.
Wish Johnny Cash was still with us.He looks really great,him and Kris.The sound coming thru is 100 percent talent,no auto tune or other junk.RIP Johnny and the best to you Kris.
Came here to say goodbye to Mr. Kristofferson.
Goodbye.
Thank you for leaving us so much fine music.
😢❤
"Up to now that was the proudest moment of my life... this might be the proudest..." Said from the heart and what a nice thing to say....
It was so genuine, just like the music and the two preformers.
Two Legends! 💕
Humility
That quote warms my heart
@@mona2242 llllllllll
RIP Kris. You and Johnny are together again singing in heaven
Kris wrote songs for people who have been through shit in their lives. He speaks to people who have felt the pain of hitting rock bottom.
😢❤

As we say ADIOS to the great Kris Kristofferson, I tear up, and love seeing these 2 together!!! RIP Amigo KRIS ... September 2024 .
RIP to both these legends. Kris being flattered by Johnny here is awesome.
"And there's nothing short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
Of a sleeping' city sidewalk
Sunday mornin' comin down"
That is pure and perfect.
Where can we hear such wonderful melodies.....NOWHERE!!!!!
Hearing Kris call that the proudest moment of his life just touched my heart how sweet and honest! I love both of these talented guys.

Why
This song always makes me well up with sadness with the poignancy of the lyrics and the beauty of the structure and music,
These are two of the greatest artists in any time.
Two legends, humble in each others company.
Music will never, ever be this good again.
+juanita ashmore You are soooo right!!!
+juanita ashmore Sure QQ
My opinion is, this music will be revived.
+CashPresley32 I sincerely hope you're right while I'm still around to see it.
juanita ashmore I will be one of the ones to do it, and I am only 26 years old.
Such poetry. Such story-telling. "My cleanest dirty shirt." That I could write such a phrase.
Kris K. You are missed. We will hold your songs always.
One of the best songs ever written, sung by two of the best.
These songs are so brings me back home
Hello friend, how are you doing today???
Excellent song !!! Nice performance by two of the best in the business !!!
WTF people it doesn't get any better than this. A classic.
I can see the peace of sobriety in Jonny in this prefomance. I'm so glad he had such a wonderful wife, and friends that helped him pull himself together. He really lived.

No one even CLOSE to legends like this today!
Legendary
Rip 🙏❤️😢
Reminds me of so many sunday mornings. Beautifully written and so true to what sunday mornings can feel like.
they both see the song in two different ways, amazing
Kris is 1 of Thee best song writers ever! Had a lot of famous people sing his songs. I also loved him singing Why Me Lord. Thanks for sharing this!
Rest in peace, both of you.
The joy and proudness of Kris to be singing with his idol , has to be life changing , beyond music .
It never ceases to amaze me how many people continue to view and comment on Johnny Cash videos, almost ten years after his death (September, 2003). It is a testament to the man's greatness and his incomparable contribution to country/folk music. And we should also appreciate the great Kris Kristofferson who is still with us and still making music.
And now another 9 years on. Love all these videos and songs still and it is now 2022.
Už to bude 20let a stále ho milujeme❤
И вот уже 21год прошёл, и мы очень давно любим и слушаем до сих пор Джонни. Их дуэт с Джун, бессмертен ❤
21 years!
I grew up with Johnny Cash, June Carter and The Stattler Brothers, so They are like family to me - Thanks God for letting me knowning the best of country.
The depth and beauty of this song and the two legends singing it is almost beyond measure.
Thank you!
A great song with Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson, this is just awesome, two American Heroes, thank you so much Johnny Cash and Kris!!

+Gerhard Perotti
Yes, thank you, thats what it is, my great respect to these great men, may god bless them!
Two more giants of Country music are Waylon and Willie.
Two iconic monuments of Country Music’s legacy.
Those lyrics always brought tears to my eyes.
thank you for sharing this, unique beautiful clip
The only thing that can make this song any better is seeing both these guys performing it together when you put two Icons like this together it’s just more Magic
Damn right
RIP to two of the finest who ever did it.

One thing wrong..Kris didn't serve in Vietnam although he did volunteer....he served 5 years in Germany mostly.

+AbbyNormal777 To bad he can't sing!!!
Really? Kris is a fantastic singer! and I finally got a chance last year to hear him live! He was the last of the 4 that I had not seen.
The best version I know about..Just love it so much..This is also my favourite from 1970..Love them both Johnny and Kris..Thanks a lot ..
Hello friend, how are you doing today??
How is everything with you Marie I hope you're doing good God bless you
Una grande performance! 😊😊😍😍🎶🎸🎶💘💘💘💘
Absolutely love how humble and respectful these two men are for each other what talent form each of them amazing men!!!
Possibly the greatest song ever written,Sunday Morning feeling,we've all been there,Well done Kris for telling it like it really was.
What? The greatest song is not about being hungover. Listen to I Can Only Imagine sometime.
The song is deeper than a person suffering a hangover.It is about being on a downward spiral and looking back up.
Two great great artists, musicians and poets
this song is one of the greats, and the artists will always be around in their music.
This is really one of the saddest songs you'll hear. It illustrates in words what loneliness truly is.
The best Johnny and Kris, greetings from Italy 2024
"My Cleanest Dirty Shirt" of of my all time favorite lines and one that inspired me to start writing songs!
+Doak Turner Kris has a way with words. he can set a scene with one short sentence. Find a recording of his called "the best of all possible worlds" off the Bobby McGee album (if you don't already know it). Lyrics are brilliant.
Doak Turner C
whole song is genuis, i always though cash wrote it
inspired me to do laundry...
Doak Turner thought he was talking about a woman..
RIP KK
Legends never die!!!!
This is magic with two of the best country singers
Two great men, Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson. Love their ways of singing.
I saw Johnny in an old beer hall after his first release on American records. The greatest show I've ever seen. Pure and sincere to the last drop.
JOhnny e Kris? Isso sim é música..
Ohh Country lindo
love listening to Kris and Johnny my dad introduced my siblings and me to these great men and their sound we love the music and enjoy it today thank you dad RIP
K.K. Has a way with words. Only a few are blessed with such a talent.
40 years later... still a great song.
Fabulous 👌 love it
Divinos ustedes, descansen en PAZ Y nosotros, agradecidos por haberlos tenido!!!!
He gave us so much the poet laureate of music Kris Kristofferson
Great!! I think Kris K. Is the most brilliant songwriter of all time.
Pray you never have to live that song, I did over 50 years ago, I'll never get over it.
Being the ex-wife of an alcoholic Vietnam combat veteran (who is now sober), I can attest to the authenticity of these lyrics. Whatever words I heard here I could once see in the tormented, hung-over morning eyes of my husband.
I too lived this life for many years after returning from Vietnam.
sober 10 + years now. Thank you for your service.
James Smith Thank you for yours, James. And stay sober - with the grace of God, your own willingness, one day at a time.

Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson , a perfect b;ending of voices of a most beautiful song, Awesome!

Great song melody duet. Well done kris and the eternal JC🙂
Without Johnny Cash in our world, there is a space that cant be filled by any person..Good by old friend..
Real country ! And that’s all I’ll say about that!
It’s folk/country. I’d call it pop, though tbh.
LOVE ... not like... but LOVE this team singing this song... so very much ... so much ... so much... so many layers... so much history... so many tales.... thank you.... wow.

These two greats survived many a Saturday Night! The music will live on
Two of the Greatest got together and made it up and that is so wonderful and sure made it my day! Just great, it,s the best!
Two legends. One stage. Perfection !
Thank you Kris for writing this wonderful song its just wonderful
I love this song, and this performance. These guys were the best. John Cash is alive and well in heaven.

two of the deepest voices in music, what a duo
When Kris said this could be the proudest moment, made me tear up man fully grown man nearly weeping. God Bless Humanity.
You sense the adulation Kris has for John, and you can tell the appreciation John had for Kris. It was a perfect friendship.
He’s like a “Kid” when he’s playing with The Highway Men!! Thank you Lord..For All Those OutLaws! And Sweet Kris Kristofferson. 🇺🇸💫❤️🇺🇸🕊🌟🎄 ❤️
Well it's Sunday so this song has a stronger meaning today. Always loved this song thanks for the video.
Looking back to all those nights, watching The Johnny Cash Show,with my family as a kid.Great memories!
The great ones are like this, humble and simple people.
If you've been read my pasts you know how Kris changed my life. The love and humility of the he shows here should prove the man is all about LOVE
This beautiful and soulful song brings back memories of my childhood and a few sprinkling of tears as the lyrics resonate. thank you.
love your truth
