He may be the most interesting artist ever. Country didn't want him, rock didn't either and he wasn't folk. He was his very own thing. Amazing. To me he was a tropical country rock folk kinda artist. My point is he was his own and there will never be another anything like him.
That's very valid point. John Denver was a lot like that as well. I still miss him so much. Really though it's testament to both of them that they both had their own unique and really dedicated fan bases and they were both in the game so long. Genre is getting more and more fluid. It kind of proves what I have thought all along, it was contrived by radio and recording industry who needed to lump music into categories in order to showcase and sell it. Buuuut radio is dead. And albums are sold mostly digitally. Bands broker and promote their own music and the fans decide what they like without near as much business influence. It's about time. Let the artist do their art.
@@sebastianositaliano6360 oh yeah Prine too. Good call! I think the best fit for any of these guys was that singer songwriter thing. Jackson Browne. Tom Petty. John Mellencamp, Paul Simon. Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, Delbert McClinton, Bruce Hornsby, Keb Mo. They all crossed a lot of boundaries thank goodness. It is what made them so special.
Hey man, look. Do your dive, if you don't you'll always regret it for the rest of your life when you won't be able to. Go for it, you'll be glad you did
I just can't believe you're gone Jimmy...it doesn't sound right. We need you now more than ever..your show was one of the greatest I've ever seen..and I've seen a LOT. Love you Jimmy. Thanks for your unswerving honesty, humor, and thought-provoking lyrics and music. I know you're finally resting in your "one particular harbour" 😭🌊🎙️💜
Hang in there Brother!! You ain t too far gone. I would bet you have quite a few diving trips to take before you leave this world to party with Jimmy. Stay strong and stay happy.
I don’t get upset when celebrities pass away, but I have so many memories of his songs and memories of the south Florida area and Key West where I grew up. I was really upset when I heard this legend had passed. Thanks for the memories Jimmy, I will miss you!❤❤❤❤
He was the Smugglers Poet. He did his share. In those heady times, most of who could, did. Wild and wonderful times. Rest in peace, poet. You are loved.
Never been the emotional type when a celebrity passes, but this one hits hard. Sail on brother, sail on calm, happy seas strumming your six string. RIP Jimmy
@@tonys1202 this just came on my YT feed and I started to tear up. I miss him so much already. I can't listen to his music all the time yet. Just little bits.
After I got out of the Army I slid on down to Key West. Convinced my wife and another couple to move down there too. We were going to get jobs and live down there. After all the playing we ran out money (Did too much fishing and other stuff. After that we went back to Texas and got on with our lives… However; I never stopped going down there through all the years and now keep my boat “Sacrifice” down there. We sail to the Dry Tortuga’s and over to the Bahamas. Yes, Jimmy Buffet is still 😊number one on our playlist.
Went on the outer Caribbean island cruise to granada then back to Tampa. Right after Jimmy passed. Listened to him every evening watching the sunsets. Awesome
62 here also! This song came out in 1974 when I was 13 I am a connoisseur of music all kinds of music yet not once did I ever hear this song on the radio TV or anywhere until just yesterday on Facebook someone posted this! I am blown away by this version. Such a great song and it’s taking me almost 50 years to find it. Wow so glad I found it.
The second that I heard you passed, Jimmy, I started to think of this song. From my parents playing it for me 40 years ago, to singing it myself, it still resonates in my heart and soul. Fair winds and calm seas, Jimmy. Save my mom a seat at your first concert up there.
My ex was American and I had not heard of this man until he took me to California , San Jose , I saw him in a small concert I fell in love with so many of his songs and so sad I feel as I heard San Francisco is in need of song and kind Bless all over there who were devoted fans Music song that you love The words come back pretty damn fast Like this song to me Rest in divine peace
I'm devastated, been crying all day, listening to the man who gave me my love of the sea, more than any other. This is maybe his best, but he wrote SO many great ones. He will NEVER be replaced. Gone WAY too soon. Dammit, Jimmy, we needed you for so much longer.......RIP, Pirate
Back in the 70's Jimmy was the sound track of my life. His music is part of my adult life. Over the decades so much great music. His loss was a shock. He made so many people happy. I feel like I've lost a brother.
Started listening to Jimme in 1974. He truly provided the song lines of my life. I can't listen to any other music because I feel I'm being disloyal to the man, the myth, and the legend!
There is something so depressing when you enjoy the God given talents of someone who brings such pleasure to the world, knowing it will never happen again.
Jimmy Buffett’s quintessential song I believe. As a young songwriter, this song and many others are always meant to be played on the acoustic guitar, in a matter to tell a story through feeling and artistry. As stated in other comments, Jimmy routinely performs this song with different improvisations… always a good time, however this version may be the finest orchestration of lyric and instrument dynamically captured by modern recording methods…. Perfection. I love the purity, solemnness of this song and the picture it paints. I too identify with the story it tells, on many levels. Although I’ve heard it 1000 times never get tired of it… I cannot recall very many songs that achieve this. Jimmy Buffett’s Pirate at 40 is a gift to those us who understand and identify with the story. I don’t imagine Jimmy has all that many performing years left in him… and ultimately when Jimmy finally sets sail and leaves this planet, it will be a sad day for all of us, enjoy him while he’s still here! Well done, sir, a true artist and phenomenal songwriter.
Thank you my friend for this great song . I consider it the Anthem of My Life,how I lived. Can't wait to join you and hear you and the Bob Roberts Society Band jamming. Till then, smooth sailing .R.I.P.🏝️🕔⛵🍔
Farewell Jimmy - I played a parrot head gig last night - I didn't know Jimmy was gone - Had I known I don't know how I could have gotten through it. I closed my set with "False Echoes" ...Now Jimmy sails the endless sea with his father. ..."Now the old Chicamauga, has slipped by the ways, she lies on the bottom, of old Mobile bay, where the ghosts of his father, and his brothers are near .... And the wind went away in... September '23 ... God Bless jimmy, fair winds and following seas... 🙏⛵
I don’t think there’s many that realize the incredible talent of the man who’s closest, in this view. He’s not only a terrific “Coral Reefer”- but an excellent singer- songwriter, in his own right. (Mac McAnally wrote “It’s My Job”, which he and Jimmy have each recorded). Mac has a deep & beautiful voice and he’s a Well-above-average guitar player, also! He has numerous albums out, on his own, and his music and lyrics are really worth listening to!
I have actually been a fan of Mac's as long as I have been a fan of Jimmy's. I fell in love with Mac in 1977 with his release of his first album and that amazing song, Crazy World. I was, of course, already a huge fan of Jimmy's. Crazy how they got together. I know Mac must be really hurting right now and I pray for him. It's been a horrible weekend. :( @@danielhoskins976
I think Jimmy was a great song writer. He felt like a friend and most definitely made me as a music lover to look farther and wider at all music. For that I am grateful. Thank You Good Sir, and may you rest in peace.
I spent 6 years in the 1970s flying out of NAS Key West. When I wasn't working, I used my boat to fish and ran stone crab traps during the season. Those were some of the best years of my life. Guess I'm a parrothead at heart. RIP Jimmy B.!
OMG! Love you Jimmy, I grew up with your music & still entertain 53 yrs later. I love how comfortable you are with BARE FEET on stage! My kinda guy. Beach Bum. RIP Jimmy. All my tequila shots are for you.
Almost (probably all) his songs, I was there. Sailing the islands starting early 80s, the in and outs of life, "I've see it all," he captured the realness of life, of life of a sailor. Even "Cheese Burger In Paradise," a man can only eat so much lobster, grouper and conch (almost). Even kept me focused on "why we ride the carousel" while undergoing radiation procedure for 3 months (choice of what to listen to while lying there). Almost selfish to say he will be missed but I say it with love, appreciation, a shared knowing . . . Oh, and slather the sun screen, skin can treatment gets old.
Sitting up in Canada looking at a beautiful sunny day without a cloud in sight. The snow is beautiful, with temperatures around 0C or 32F. However, when this song comes on, I'm transported to a beautiful beach down south. RIP Jimmy, fair winds and following seas!🍹🦜
I cross stitched the lyrics of this song in 1994 for my friend. After she past it was given back to me. My favorite song. I have seen Jimmy 20 times in concert. So, I'm a true Parrotthead!
I have been so sad since I heard of Jimmy's passing. He's the guy that we all thought would live forever, always giving us great music and inspiration. I feel like I've lost a friend. Jimmy, you will be loved and forever missed! RIP sir and thank you for all that you gave me!!!
15 years in the gulf of Mexico to be retired by an unpreventable tragedy. I doubt I'll ever see the sun rise and set over the gulf again... but in this song, I remember.
I’m gonna miss Jimmy Buffett so much. This is a great performance! I can’t believe Mac McAnally doesn’t even get a mention here! Another fantastic singer/songwriter! He wrote Chesney’s Down The Road and Sawyer Brown’s All These Years. RIP Sailor!! Bubbles Up!!
RIP JIMMY!!! Spent some time out on those oceans, saw some of the most beautiful sunrises & sunsets I've ever seen. That was when I wasn't too tired from working the hours we worked at sea. Don't think when I ever go out on the water I won't somehow think of you and this song, as well as some others. As Bob Hope said Thanks for the memories! Fair winds & following seas Jimmy! FLY NAVY!!!
I came to Brazil in 1976 to meet my now wife. This South Georgia boy brought 1 record with him, A white sport coat and a pink crustacean. I arrived in Rio a week ago and heard that Jimmy had passed. A sad irony. We all lost a friend. Thanks my friend for the memories that I’ll cherish forever.
My all time favorite song as I have been blessed to have seen Jimmy so many times as I grew up in the panhandle of Florida born and raised in Gulf Breeze, FL. I then relocated down here to the Keys for a while then back to St Petersburg. Currently I went back to the Island of Cozumel as I have always been a wanderer, but will have Jimmy by my side thru his music!
I miss you my friend...I play and sing your music almost every single day! Hard to believe it's been over a year now since you were called home...Thanks for you still give us!...but I won't wear a frown 😎...sail on, and BUBBLES UP!
Comments on the previous , I was born and raised right here on the Gulf of Mexico , pretty much the FL/Al line , seen him at the flora/bama un announced several times , the most when I say most genuine person I have ever met in my life , you will truly be missed
Think of all the smiles he put on people’s faces through the decades. Family vacations at the beach playing JB, it’s beautiful. Forget about all your problems 👍👍
He may be the most interesting artist ever. Country didn't want him, rock didn't either and he wasn't folk. He was his very own thing. Amazing. To me he was a tropical country rock folk kinda artist. My point is he was his own and there will never be another anything like him.
And i loved him
That's very valid point. John Denver was a lot like that as well. I still miss him so much. Really though it's testament to both of them that they both had their own unique and really dedicated fan bases and they were both in the game so long. Genre is getting more and more fluid. It kind of proves what I have thought all along, it was contrived by radio and recording industry who needed to lump music into categories in order to showcase and sell it. Buuuut radio is dead. And albums are sold mostly digitally. Bands broker and promote their own music and the fans decide what they like without near as much business influence. It's about time. Let the artist do their art.
I guess that’s why Jimmy called his music “Shrimp Rock”. My 1st time ever hearing this cut & I love it!!
Very well said. Not trying to steal your comment, but I think John Prine was in the same ... *ahem* ... boat.
I'm glad to have known them both!
@@sebastianositaliano6360 oh yeah Prine too. Good call! I think the best fit for any of these guys was that singer songwriter thing. Jackson Browne. Tom Petty. John Mellencamp, Paul Simon. Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, Delbert McClinton, Bruce Hornsby, Keb Mo. They all crossed a lot of boundaries thank goodness. It is what made them so special.
Sail on into that Key West sunset. We'll have your treasure trove of music to listen to for the rest of our days. ❤ RIP Jimmy Buffett
This hits deep 😢
Jimmy was one of the reasons I started playing guitar! Playing this on the beach in Key West is quite the experience. Rip Jimmy!
I am a diver. Over 500 dives to my name. Now brain tumor. I want one last dive trip.Pain is bad but I want to dive. JB keeps me going.
Hang in there. Plan your dive and dive your plan.☮️
Mother Ocean will take you in her arms, my friend.
Hey man, look. Do your dive, if you don't you'll always regret it for the rest of your life when you won't be able to. Go for it, you'll be glad you did
Get wet, brother.
It's a great day to have a great day. Get it done. FamilyStrong.
I just can't believe you're gone Jimmy...it doesn't sound right. We need you now more than ever..your show was one of the greatest I've ever seen..and I've seen a LOT. Love you Jimmy. Thanks for your unswerving honesty, humor, and thought-provoking lyrics and music. I know you're finally resting in your "one particular harbour" 😭🌊🎙️💜

You ain t too far gone.
I would bet you have quite a few diving trips to take before you leave this world to party with Jimmy. Stay strong and stay happy.

I don’t get upset when celebrities pass away, but I have so many memories of his songs and memories of the south Florida area and Key West where I grew up. I was really upset when I heard this legend had passed. Thanks for the memories Jimmy, I will miss you!❤❤❤❤
Wot a great song.....
A light just went out in this crazy world . RIP Sir you were a legend 🙏
You sir sit in that legend catagory so when you say that about Jimmy it means even more!
So true.❤
He was the Smugglers Poet.
He did his share.
In those heady times, most of who could, did.
Wild and wonderful times.
Rest in peace, poet.
You are loved.
Was, is and will be a legend forever
Never been the emotional type when a celebrity passes, but this one hits hard. Sail on brother, sail on calm, happy seas strumming your six string. RIP Jimmy
Yeah Jimmy and Chris are the only two that have hurt like this
Right there with you.

I am still in mourning, no more concerts or should I say parties, that’s what a JB concert was. We lost an amazing entertainer.
Oh Jimmy you’ll be missed… I can’t even think how many times I’ve listened to your music and found myself in your songs. Sleep well kind Sir.
RIP Jimmy Buffett. I am 62 years old. He has been the songwriter of my life.
For me as well. I’m 😞 lost and in shock still. I’m listening to all of his music 🎶.. till we meet again, my friend.🌈☀️⭐️💫🌟🌝🌴

Music song that you love
The words come back pretty damn fast
Like this song to me
Rest in divine peace
Can't watch this and not cry. I loved this man so much.
My Dad loved this
RIP Jimmy. Your music will live forever 😢

Yup, he's the reason I moved near the ocean. Legend gone too soon.
Keep playing this song. Brings me to tears.
Miss you Jimmy!!!!

One of the nicest, cleanest renditions of this Jimmy Buffett classic. Beautiful!
OMG. the three of them singing this song is so much loved! Jimmy, Zac, and MAC! My tears are filling my eyes and running down my face!
I'm crying too. When I lived in the Virgin islands, the music they played the most was JImmy Buffett and reggae.
So damn good 🍍🌺🌴🥭🦜🦩
I feel sorry for anyone who would dislike this version of the song.
What dislikes?
Or any version
Whoever mixed and recorded this, just want you to know youre a Legend.
RIP Jimmy, You and your music are a national treasure, especially in the Florida Keys.....

Wow you had a premonition whether you knew it or not … kind words Jimmy was one of a kind . Sail on sailor, see you on the other side ❤
This was sung exactly as it should have been. And, sadly, Jimmy has now set sail.
Prophetic words, my friend.
Tough to listen to this without it bringing tears to my eyes. Such incredible talent.
I totally agree. I miss Jimmy. Glad I have alot of his vinyl.
The Pirate has left Margaritaville. You made your mark on and in people's lives and that is a some legacy. Thanks for everything.
Such a great song. Love the harmonies here and the sparkle in Jimmy's eyes.
This song alone makes him a legend. A good man is gone. Let’s always remember the good ones.
this song came out when I was in my 30's, am now 68 !
Thank goodness for an audience who listened without hollering and screeching the way they do in Taylor Swift concerts.
RIP Jimmy. Thank you for the music and all the joy it spread.
One of my all time favorite songs! This is a great version with Zac Brown.
This is one of my favs. The other is Son of a Son
And don’t forget the great Mac McAnally!
Mac is always in the back ground making everyone else look good.

That's beautiful @cynthiak3376, is that a lyric? I'm about 30 minutes from chiamaugua
When I need to unwind and forget about the stresses in my life, I turn on Jimmy Buffet. What a special gift he was.
He gave us all the permission to relax, kick back and enjoy life once in a while. That was a great gift that we all needed…
This one hit really hard. Rest in Peace, Jimmy. Fair winds and following seas. 😢
Rip Jimmy.....This loss is going too stay with us but he left us his music to enjoy!!!!
My youth died with jimmy, reat in peace my inspiration
Mac is the best singer/songwriter/musician that most folks have never heard of! Guy is a genius!
Hopefully Mac will keep the band going. There will never be another Jimmy. But we still have his music and who knows maybe Mac can add to the big 12
I love you jimmy....you will always be in my thoughts...you gave me so much joy...
Well, I am in tears. Jimmy, Mac and Zac. I mean, REALLY? Absolute perfection. And Jimmy with no shoes!!!!!!!
He blew out his flip flops.

Shoes were prohibited on the beaches of SW Alabama, flip flops were acceptable, barely. Barefeet are almost mandatory.
Hard to believe Jimmy is in his 70s still sounding great!!!
12/25/1946
His concerts are as good now as they ever were! I have seen him 6-7 times since 1982 and he is still an entertainer's entertainer!

Looks great. What a life
Apparently this was back in 2010 so he was in his 60s. But your point stands, he sounds great here
What a SONG!!! it just transports me to peaceful and calm seas. 💜
Hello Betty 👋
May you always have fair winds and following seas. Rest in Peace Jimmy.
I think Jimmy was a great song writer.
He felt like a friend and most definitely made me as a music lover to look farther and wider at all music.
For that I am grateful.
Thank You Good Sir, and may you rest in peace.
Having lived my life differently than most people; I have always identified with the meaning of this song.
I didnt realize how much Jimmy influenced Zac Brown's singing style. Their voices blend really well.

Tears and margaritas and smiles all day man
Gonna miss you Jimmy god bless you for all you gave us❤
One of my favorite Jimmy Buffett songs. Love this rendition so much. ❤️

Became a fan 40 years ago and will remain a ParrotHead til I die. Pirates & Parrots
Thank You and I AGREE With You 🎶🌅💦🌴🦜
I love this song so much. Brings me to tears every single time.
Jimmy always seems to improvise his live songs, but seems to be serious on this one. I appreciate that.
I love this comment. Sometimes he improvises too much, but this song seems to hold a little extra meaning for him
@@a.j.495When in the presence of Zac Brown (a phenomenal musician) perhaps one is best served to step up their game.
He does not have to step up his game 🥰
Zac made Jimmy proud with that verse!!
I cross stitched the lyrics of this song in 1994 for my friend. After she past it was given back to me. My favorite song. I have seen Jimmy 20 times in concert. So, I'm a true Parrotthead!

Dang........... you listen to the song, get in the zone, reflect on life. and WAM that cmt commercial blasts you at the end..........
15 years in the gulf of Mexico to be retired by an unpreventable tragedy. I doubt I'll ever see the sun rise and set over the gulf again... but in this song, I remember.
Story of my life. Thank you.
I’m gonna miss Jimmy Buffett so much. This is a great performance! I can’t believe Mac McAnally doesn’t even get a mention here! Another fantastic singer/songwriter! He wrote Chesney’s Down The Road and Sawyer Brown’s All These Years.
RIP Sailor!! Bubbles Up!!
BUBBLES UP , JIMMY .
THANK YOU ! ! !
what a combo!!
I turned 40 21 years ago. My most favorite Buffet song to play on acoustic.
Anyone catch jimmy at 2:13 looking around to Mac McAnally like wow ? Great wee moment , rip jimmy ❤
My favorite buffet song. Plus I turned 40 this last year. 20 years ago forty seemed old...
To some Parrotheads 40 seems young since that was thirty years ago ;))
Just keep sailin brother 🦜
Have that same feeling.......
Never thought I'd make it to 40 and here I am at 42 😎🤙
I know the feeling about to turn41. Lol
Still listening at 64
RIP JIMMY!!! Spent some time out on those oceans, saw some of the most beautiful sunrises & sunsets I've ever seen. That was when I wasn't too tired from working the hours we worked at sea. Don't think when I ever go out on the water I won't somehow think of you and this song, as well as some others. As Bob Hope said Thanks for the memories! Fair winds & following seas Jimmy! FLY NAVY!!!
Not only can Jimmy sing, he is an incredible author. Love his music and his books !
Very true
His books are really good.
I did not know he wrote books, have to check it out
I've read all of them, a Salty Piece of Land is my favorite.
Wonderful performance, love the song. Love the harmonizing. Jimmy had such pretty blue, expressive eyes.
Hello Joan
How are you?
How did I never know of this version? Three great musicians. Awesome!
Such a beautiful song. We’ll all really miss him. A true American Icon. Successful in many ways. Just such fun. 😢
Hey there
How are you?
I came to Brazil in 1976 to meet my now wife. This South Georgia boy brought 1 record with him, A white sport coat and a pink crustacean. I arrived in Rio a week ago and heard that Jimmy had passed. A sad irony. We all lost a friend. Thanks my friend for the memories that I’ll cherish forever.
That might be the best thing I've ever heard.
Wow. Goosebumps....That was awesome...We lost a great soul and person....May his music live on forever....Love you Jimmy....
First country song I ever learned . Thanks Jimmy, you will always be played and loved
Thank you, Jimmy.. you made life so much fun…
My all time favorite song as I have been blessed to have seen Jimmy so many times as I grew up in the panhandle of Florida born and raised in Gulf Breeze, FL.
I then relocated down here to the Keys for a while then back to St Petersburg.
Currently I went back to the Island of Cozumel as I have always been a wanderer, but will have Jimmy by my side thru his music!
I miss you my friend...I play and sing your music almost every single day! Hard to believe it's been over a year now since you were called home...Thanks for you still give us!...but I won't wear a frown 😎...sail on, and BUBBLES UP!
Legend…he will be missed❤ RIP Pirate!
The World is truly a little sadder today
RIP Jimmy
You were LEGEND

Comments on the previous , I was born and raised right here on the Gulf of Mexico , pretty much the FL/Al line , seen him at the flora/bama un announced several times , the most when I say most genuine person I have ever met in my life , you will truly be missed
