This kid is obviously a once-in-a-generation talent. I love how he respectfully honors his predecessors, and does so with a seeming lack of ego. His covers are as good or better than the originals. He restores my faith in young folks. Keep 'er goin' Mo!!
I absolutely agree. I don’t even think that Mo knows himself , how big a talent he actually is..His voice is out of this world. I am so glad that such a pure young man has chosen to play pure old beautiful country music. I think I have been watching this video a hundred times at least and I still get goosebumps every time I see it. Just outstanding.
MO PITNEY… YOUR ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE … YOUR VOICE IS AMAZING ❤️❤️I’M 71 YEARS OLD..I HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AS YOURS.. YOUR SOUND COMES FROM YOUR HEART @ SOUL… YOUR AMAZING MO… PLEASE NEVER STOP ❤️❤️
Mo has made me love this song even more!!❤ . Mo Pitney is the perfect example of class!!! His voice is perfect for the traditional country music that I grew up on.
I can honestly say it's been a long time since i have heard a voice like this. Mo you can thank the Lord for this talent he gave you. May all your path's be blessed.
I just love watching the old timers in the back ground respect youth as it is !!!!!!!!!!!and by god they themselves are due a lot of respect thats for sure they are the back bone of country music as we know it today and for ever as I see it good on ya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you might not be at the front getting all the praise but if not for you the praise would not be there !!!!!!
Mo best version of farmers daughter I have ever heard so glad you are singing the old country music love all your story telling songs and that you talk about your songs before you sing each one love that you sing some gospel also your testimony’s Mo I just want to listen to you more and more every night you stay the way you are keep singing these great old country songs and keep writing great songs for us to hear I love that you are a Christian and you tell how you are .
Simple, traditional country music doesn't sell any more and it's a real shame because really talented singers like mo deserve every break they can get but most want the new country which isn't country at all. This is country.
Wayne, mo is probably the last male singer to use the old country style. Got a good looking wife with a fantastic voice.he is one of the three I still listen too.
Beautiful rendition, I’m a single dad, my daughter is now 21, raised her alone since she was 5, I always liked this song but now it hits home so hard that it brings tears to my eyes every time.
Nothing greater than being able to raise a child to adulthood, no matter how hard it was. Have a blessed wonderful Easter week, James Tally. You are one of a kind, they are few and far between.
The good old days. I miss them so much. This world so messed up now. God I wish I could turn back the pages of time. People were real then and loved the Lord.
Tonight there'll be candlelight and roses In this little country chapel that's almost falling down There'll be tears in this old farmer's eyes this evening When I give my one possession to that city boy from town His hair is a little longer than we're use to But, I guess I should find something good to say About this man who's won the farmer's daughter And will soon become my son-in-law today Mama left eight years ago December And it was hard to be a Dad and Mama too But, somehow we made home of this old farmhouse And love was all my baby ever knew He could be the richest man in seven counties And not be good enough to take her hand But, he says he really loves the farmer's daughter And I know the farmer's daughter loves the man
I am a huge Mo fan and have been a Merle fan for over 50 years. This is such a fabulous video. Mo singing, wonderfully talented musicians, Merle’s boys there, old timers on set, etc. I can’t count the amount of times I’ve watched this video. I wish I could find the entire show somewhere.
The absolute best remake I’ve ever heard of one of Merles songs, and I have his sons in the audience, and to see the looks on their faces are priceless
For a guy this voice is so soothing and easy to listen to. Mo had perfect control of his voice and he knows how to sing and play without all of the studio gimmicks. He brings back the Country Music I am a custom to. He needs to be recording Country Music!!!!
Mo has the best Voice I have heard for decades.. I could listen to Mo the whole day. I am so glad that such a young guy sticks to real country .. What a voice and what a gift for country music fans. Mo has got that kind of innocence that makes him so pure and so real. By the way, his cheek dimples are just adorable..
Thank you Mo for doing Merle's song so beautiful. He would be so proud of you. And thank you for keeping traditional country music alive. I truly believe it will return someday. You will be a big reason it does.
Powerful version of one of my heroes song's...loved Merle and this young man does him proud with his version of the song, absolutely country, real country the way I love it, pity more young one's don't sing country like Mo does!
I was told I think after the show maybe a few days later , I would be number 1 fan personally , attitude and stage appearance second to none , so relaxed when talking are singing ,yep great performance
Absolutely incredible honestly back to the good old days real Nashville sound and bakersfield merle haggard would v been so proud take a bow mo love from Glasgow xx uk and all of merles family marvellous singers honestly each and everyone of them
Mo, you are "realer" than real! What a tremendous, stupendous performance of this beautiful Merle Haggard song. I know he would have been proud to hear you sing it, as I'm sure his sons did sitting there listening this day. Keep on singing these classic country songs and the ones that you are recording today. You have been blessed by God with a real talent, and it shows because you sing from the heart in such a way that all who listen are moved to stand up and applaud. Thanks for sharing, Willem!
Mo while you sung just right and with the best feeling in your terrific voice, the band is outstanding as well. I have heard them in backup to other singers. What a group!
I wish we could have more music like this in our lives today. Mo would’ve been a big star 20 or 30 years ago. Nashville needs to wake up and embrace its roots. Tired of cookie cutter country of today. Real musicians and heart. None of these turds who just put a southern accent over rock licks .
I don't know how anyone could give this a thumbs down Mo did a wonderful rendition of this song I think Merle would of loved this Mo that was awesome !!
So glad to see this section of the original tribute video again. Mo Pitney is the best. I would love to see the entire tribute to Merle Haggard again. It was a wonderful show with so many great Artists. Would anyone out there that reads this know of any channel that is showing the complete show. I think it’s been about 4 years ago when it came out. Thanks to anyone who might could give me the information. Lou
The lyrics of this beautiful song are so true.. I think that every Dad has just a little bit of these thoughts when he realize that his daughter is going to be married. Even a prince on a white horse would not be quit good enough. Mo sings this song so beautiful..Bless you Mo, you are the biggest Talent that we have had for decades. Thank you for keeping pure country music alive.. I hope you will go straight to the top.
Mo my grandson and i saw you in Bellville Texas at County Fair. It was a pleasure to meet You and Holly... You even invited us on Your Bus after the Show... That was Awesome... and TY and Holly for signing my Grandsos guitar
The first time I heard this, I'd never heard of Mo Pitney and I also didn't know this song. I just happen upon the song and the minute Mo started sitting, my jaw dropped and stayed like that the rest of the song. I sat still unable to move a muscle. I was stunned by Mo's voice. I've since listened to it hundreds of times and never tire of it.
Thank You for your beautiful voice and sharing it with us. What an honor and memorial to Merle Haggard, and now starts Your journey. Don't forget bluegrass🤗
It's been a long time since I've heard someone sing and get goosebumps but this guy is amazing. Just got my tickets for the Walhalla Sc show on April 24th. I can't wait to see my daughter's face that night because she is only 11 and likes Mo Pitney.
This group knows where to put their part in to keep this song going and support the singer, don’t think I’ve seen anything else so well coordinated.... Leave it to the professionals, this is amazing!!!!
Fantastic voice; Sounds as if he has been singing for 40yrs. She was home from Panama City She was all tanned-up and my kind of pretty When her eyes met mine I was thinkin' that I sure love my job ---
I just have to say Mo is the best singer of the young generation singing now, some just are hollering and sound more like metal heads. Mo is true country and what he sings is COUNTRY the way it should be sung.
I love Merle Haggard but when people keep saying there will never be a voice like his I keep thinking how all his singing children and I'm guessing this young man is his grandchild have his wonderful voice hopefully we can hear them on the radio someday too amazing amazing voice
No wonder he isn't mainstream. This is pure country, to the roots
This kid is obviously a once-in-a-generation talent. I love how he respectfully honors his predecessors, and does so with a seeming lack of ego. His covers are as good or better than the originals. He restores my faith in young folks. Keep 'er goin' Mo!!
Cannot add to that but simply support everything you say. Do these guys realise what they do for us ordinary folk?
Can't agree more... We need more real country. Mo Pitney delivers!
I absolutely agree. I don’t even think that Mo knows himself , how big a talent he actually is..His voice is out of this world. I am so glad that such a pure young man has chosen to play pure old beautiful country music. I think I have been watching this video a hundred times at least and I still get goosebumps every time I see it. Just outstanding.
Well Said.
@@connieg343 couldn't agree with you more. Hope he never changes.
What a performance. Mo, when it comes to singing this song, you are the best.
MO PITNEY… YOUR ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE … YOUR VOICE IS AMAZING ❤️❤️I’M 71 YEARS OLD..I HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AS YOURS.. YOUR SOUND COMES FROM YOUR HEART @ SOUL… YOUR AMAZING MO… PLEASE NEVER STOP ❤️❤️
Hello Betty hope you’re having a great weekend??
That young man is a great Country singer. Thank you for posting this.
No doubt Merle would have appreciated this rendition. Good performance, Mo. Just the right touch…
Amen. And you can tell Marty Haggard is really enjoying listening to this.
It’s incredible
very nice sad song and excellent backing group.
Bless this wonderful young man with the old soul. Keeping things the same for this old gal.
Wow, young man has an amazing and authentic country music voice. Love it❤😊
Mo has made me love this song even more!!❤ . Mo Pitney is the perfect example of class!!! His voice is perfect for the traditional country music that I grew up on.

YOU ARE A. SUPER SINGER U.VOICE IS B. You are going to a great singer and soon God is good his with you h.t.
Mo Pitney, what an absolute ‘young’ legend, and much respect to Merle, May He Rest In Peace. RIP an sleep well Merle ❤️❤️❤️🇮🇪
Country with plenty of soul. Fantastic!
Mo best version of farmers daughter I have ever heard so glad you are singing the old country music love all your story telling songs and that you talk about your songs before you sing each one love that you sing some gospel also your testimony’s Mo I just want to listen to you more and more every night you stay the way you are keep singing these great old country songs and keep writing great songs for us to hear I love that you are a Christian and you tell how you are .
What a beautiful voice.....why do we not hear of him on the award shows. Amazing!!
Simple, traditional country music doesn't sell any more and it's a real shame because really talented singers like mo deserve every break they can get but most want the new country which isn't country at all. This is country.
@@steviepdoyle1717 I agree. However there has got to be a big market for traditional country music as many as there are on you tube begging for it!!
makes me cry ,,,, so good reminds me of Merle so much ,,,miss Him so much
♥️
What a great voice! So great to see a young talented singer like Mo Pitney singing real country music!
Wayne, mo is probably the last male singer to use the old country style. Got a good looking wife with a fantastic voice.he is one of the three I still listen too.
Mo is the best 👌
MAGIC, thank you 🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️
Beautiful rendition, I’m a single dad, my daughter is now 21, raised her alone since she was 5, I always liked this song but now it hits home so hard that it brings tears to my eyes every time.
You're doing a great job, good man :)
God blessed you sir
I can relate. God Bless!
You have done your job fair play to you, but it’s part of life, she needs to make a family of her own, but I’m sure you will always be a part of it….
Nothing greater than being able to raise a child to adulthood, no matter how hard it was. Have a blessed wonderful Easter week, James Tally. You are one of a kind, they are few and far between.
Mo and Ben should be leading the charge in modern country. They’re both fantastic
How are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song.
YOU A WONDERFUL SINGER & BEAUTIFUL SONGS THANKS
Hello Judith 👋
Just plain good country real good country the way it supposed to be thanks Mo
Absolutely love Mo singing this song with this band ... THANKYOU! ❤️❤️❤️
Bravo Mo, from Texas, Thanks for a real country music experience.
Wow great job Mo Pitney and that fiddle playing just melts my heart!
It's quite rare at this day to see young boy in the real country music. Proud of him. Keep up with your talent young boy. God bless you!
Wow i was thinking the same thing..great voice and good tast in music..hes keeping the tunes alive
Exceedingly rare indeed. However, people like Moe have a long shelf life.
I stand corrected, it's Mo, not Moe.
The good old days. I miss them so much. This world so messed up now. God I wish I could turn back the pages of time. People were real then and loved the Lord.
Tonight there'll be candlelight and roses
In this little country chapel that's almost falling down
There'll be tears in this old farmer's eyes this evening
When I give my one possession to that city boy from town
His hair is a little longer than we're use to
But, I guess I should find something good to say
About this man who's won the farmer's daughter
And will soon become my son-in-law today
Mama left eight years ago December
And it was hard to be a Dad and Mama too
But, somehow we made home of this old farmhouse
And love was all my baby ever knew
He could be the richest man in seven counties
And not be good enough to take her hand
But, he says he really loves the farmer's daughter
And I know the farmer's daughter loves the man
I love this guy!
How have I only just discovered Mo Pitney..??? What a wonderful voice and combination of musicians..

FANTASTIC JOB MO~~~THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE "HAG" SONGS...LOVE IT
Mo u r one of the greatest country singers and a rising star. All the very best.

This kid flat out owns this song!!!
Great job mo merle love his kids merle was the best on my book RIP
I just have to say Mo is the best singer of the young generation singing now, some just are hollering and sound more like metal heads. Mo is true country and what he sings is COUNTRY the way it should be sung.

Good, REAL country music!
Love ❤ this artist, found him on the John Berry show on UK 🇬🇧 t.v. He's so laid back and & easy listening 🎶 music 🎶 🎵 on the 👂ear.
Nice that Merle’s sons are in the audience listening to their Dad’s song -written and recorded by him.
And he did such a great job wit the three of them sitting there
yeah an they can't cash mo's checks neither one. not sorry.
I have LITERALLY listened to / watched this performance here 100 times. Just amazing. Wish I could be part of this setting..... well done Mo.
Makes me cry! Between Mo's soulful voice and that old violin, brings on a heartache.
Omg! This is an amazing tribute song. Good job Mo. Respect n blesses to you and the band. Amazing!
I love Merle Haggard but when people keep saying there will never be a voice like his I keep thinking how all his singing children and I'm guessing this young man is his grandchild have his wonderful voice hopefully we can hear them on the radio someday too amazing amazing voice
