This is indeed the best version i've ever heard. Willie sings it with so much soul in this one. And Ray as always is great!! I just don't know how anybody could not like this.
I must really bit you love the song so very much dear I was searching profile when I came across you and stop to say hello hope everything is going smoothly for you would want us to know more about ourselves better
My uncle sung this song on guitar as a tribute to my father at his tangi ( funeral) or wake for those in the northern hemisphere. This is the first time I've shared this this with anyone. This and Marty Robbins were part of his generation which I keep close. I'm thirty one now.
Absolutely a beautiful song. We lost a great one when Ray died. When Willie goes I hope they can sing this together in Heaven...Thanks for the music...Cheers.. Wayne..
this song is an all time great, done well by willie and ray. I am not a fan of wille, but his voice compliments ray perfectly, couldn't have been better.
Can't listen to this without crying. Momma used to sing this to me as a kid. It's such a terrible shame we are starting to see these great song writers leaving this world to go spread joy in the next life.
A good friend passed away this morning. For as long as I've know her, this had been her favorite song. Sang if for her @ karaoke many times. R.I.P. Sandra.
Thanks rody9170 for this post! These two guys are just over and above outstanding. Willie being himself, just so wild, mad, great. Ray, every hair and every bone the epitome of rythme and soul. Just have to thank God for folks like 'em.
Ray Charles and Willie Nelson are icons on there own but to have such a powerful duet really makes good music for any ears. The song and the vocal war outstanding.
Oh my God! I can only weep at the beauty of such a love. If you've even known such a love only once in your lifetime, you will never need another... so I go on... alone.
my god what a song this is for all the truckies that are no longer with us....it is our theme song for those we have lost.may god be with you all we miss ya all.
oh yes brother. these angels will be singing in heaven together; they already are; i'm sure willie goes to visit with john, and ray, and sing their songs in love
I loved this song the moment i heard it on willies roadhouse and went home and watched it over and over on youtube and this video is on of the best versions of this song. i memorized the whole damn thing 2
Ray Charles ! The greatest singer's singer this world has ever known and when other singers sang with him, they always stepped up their own performance, just like Willie did here. Magical.
+MrRttan88 Try the song Lefty and Pancho by Willie and Merle. Beautiful Spanish guitar work and their voices blend together even better than Ray/Willie combo.
one of my dad favorite songs a good friend of him made him a cd with all the old country songs this one so beautiful. they would sing and play growing up music is always part of my life. truly speaks to my heart. thank you for sharing
SORRY GUYS THIS IS THE BEST WILLIE AND RAY " BUT HER FINAL PRAYER WAS ANSWERED WHEN RIFLES FIRED AGAIN " WILLIE is perfect and on PIANO RAY PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember hearing it on a local country station in the Catskills. I thought, “What a combination, a country legend and the King of blues (my opinion) doing a duet”. 😳❤️🤫☘️
Everytime my best friend would hear this song he would always have to blast it, he died 4 years back and we played it at his funeral. There isnt a day that goes by that I don't think of him, I can always listen to this song and it always makes me smile, just remembering the good times. :) RIP Kevin...We love and miss you!
Willie is a legend on his own, but his duets are the songs that get stuck in my heart and mind. I absolutely love "Seven Spanish Angels" with Ray Charles, but I can also listen to "Faded Love" with Ray Price, over and over again.
This is the best version better than the studio version "AND 7 SPANISH ANGLES TOOK ANOTHER ANGEL HOME" " YES IT WAS " I can't thank you enough It is the best version by far
Beautiful post, beautiful song and on and on. And again the email I sent you about 10 minutes ago or so which speaks about my beautiful loving cat Angel!!! I saw this post after I sent the email. Anyway this is a beautiful song.
Oh yeah Seven Spanish Angels, it has to be true!!! After worrying about you from 3/19/15 till this afternoon 3/21/15, I finally got my computer working and emailed your mom (I could not remember her last name to try to get a phone no. through 411) I emailed her and I swear it was like 20 seconds and my phone rings and it was your mom calling me from your phone!!! Obviously it was not the email she saw at that point, she was looking through your phone to find my phone no. to let me know what was going with you. All I can say is GOD BLESS HER, SHE IS A SWEETHEART!!! I am not happy about what happened to you, but at least she let me know what is going on so I can not be soooo sooo worried by not knowing what is going on!!! She even called me later on tonight and we spoke for maybe another hour!! Oh oh you're in trouble now Dude, I really LIKE your mom. She is very open and outspoken just like ME!!! Hey hey hey my my my, now I will hear the complete TRUTH from a different member of your family beside YOU!!! Ahhh that's OK, I still love you my friend. PLEASE JUST GET BETTER AND HOPE TO SPEAK TO YOU SOOOON. GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU AND MOMMY JANE ALSO. SHE IS REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT YOU AND LOVES YOU!!! CONSIDER YOURSELF BLESSED!!!
Doesn't get much better than Willie and Ray!
Dear me, is this as close to perfection as possible?
Greg Shepherd it's definitely close bro but we're watching it fade away right in front of our eyes sad but true friend !!!!!
Ray Charles voice is smooth like butter. Willie sounds awesome too.
I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes listening to this song. Just so beautiful and haunting.
I could play this song a million times and still not have enough of it. wow!!! two legends.
I already have.
This is indeed the best version i've ever heard. Willie sings it with so much soul in this one. And Ray as always is great!! I just don't know how anybody could not like this.
Only the ignorant and self centered could not like this.but honey,We know,huh?
It is iconic.in one song we feel the fear of being caught,the pure love of the woman and rrhw hope from the mandolin
Makes Me Cry Every Time I Listen To Them. Music 🎵🎶🎶 Made For Heaven, Sung Heavenly. Love You Both, Ray & Willie 💖🙏😇✌️
Well said Darla! 💚 from Ireland! 🇮🇪
I must really bit you love the song so very much dear I was searching profile when I came across you and stop to say hello hope everything is going smoothly for you would want us to know more about ourselves better
Ray Charles arguably the greatest vocalist of all time.
He's for sure in the finalists.
One of the greatest. God Bless Ray!
Don't get much better than that 👍
My uncle sung this song on guitar as a tribute to my father at his tangi ( funeral) or wake for those in the northern hemisphere. This is the first time I've shared this this with anyone. This and Marty Robbins were part of his generation which I keep close. I'm thirty one now.
Absolutely a beautiful song. We lost a great one when Ray died. When Willie goes I hope they can sing this together in Heaven...Thanks for the music...Cheers..
Wayne..
Breathtaking, I dedicated this song to my Son Michael Wills.Ray and Willie you’re the greatest.
Most people today don’t know anything about music but this guy made some stunning music
Bullshit. Turn off the pop radio and listen to real music from all the other talented artists making music.
What an iconic voice Charles had. I could listen all day
Two great Americans! Good job guys!
Certainly one of the best songs ever written. Performed by two of the best country singers in history.
Michael Colloton love this song
Numa Dumont larryfullet
this song is an all time great, done well by willie and ray. I am not a fan of wille, but his voice compliments ray perfectly, couldn't have been better.
Very much appreciate this version. Thank you for posting this gem.
Can't listen to this without crying. Momma used to sing this to me as a kid. It's such a terrible shame we are starting to see these great song writers leaving this world to go spread joy in the next life.
My Grandpa!! His fav song. ❤️❤️ Don't cry over them, cry for us!!!!
Crying like a baby rn. It's insane how a song can bring back so much
This song has been an ear worm for the last few weeks with me. It's brilliant
Best singer even love you Elvis 💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
I can't even imagine how anyone could give this rendition a thumbs down!
WHAT???
Haters are everywere madam.
Won't ever be another great duo like these!
The days of these ballads from the musical icons will always be remember thanks to those of us who remember what great music really sounded like!

sherri jones to true ime only in my 30 grew up listening to all great country music 🎶
sherri jones “
sherri jones so true

First time I've seen this video. Could hardly swallow for the beauty of it. Just blown away. God bless Ray. God bless Willie.
who could dislike this song? i mean I'm a die hard metal head, and i love this song
Straight up \m/
Willie is levitating as he should, and Ray is accommodating in his genius way, and the effect is absolutely unique.
The very best of the best,God Bless both Willie and Ray for this Awesome Song.Brings Tears to my Eyes.
A good friend passed away this morning. For as long as I've know her, this had been her favorite song. Sang if for her @ karaoke many times.
R.I.P. Sandra.
Ray is a musical genius, huis music timeless.
I love willie and ray singing 7 spanish angels beautiful song
Dorothy Zentgraf w
I was telling my wife that Mr Willie and. Mr Ray are the only ones can sing that song and make sound right
..... ME .... ME .... TOO!
Thanks rody9170 for this post! These two guys are just over and above outstanding. Willie being himself, just so wild, mad, great. Ray, every hair and every bone the epitome of rythme and soul. Just have to thank God for folks like 'em.
This Is One Of Willies & Rays Best
Perhaps a better studio version. But the heart. The connection. The respect to deliver this song. 2 of the greatest story tellers. ❤️
Was wäre die Musik,-musikwelt ohne diese fantastischen zwei Künstler?
ARM,nothing ,nichts
Ray Charles and Willie Nelson are icons on there own but to have such a powerful duet really makes good music for any ears. The song and the vocal war outstanding.
well said gordon we will never see the likes of these geniuses again there is always a fool with no talent but a big mouth
Thank you so very much Mr. Ray Charles
Congratulations you two put a newborn asleep 🙂
Oh my God! I can only weep at the beauty of such a love. If you've even known such a love only once in your lifetime, you will never need another... so I go on... alone.
I agree every comment you people have said it is a beautiful song plus a sad song sung by two great singers
words are not enough to describe the feeling of emotion that ray and willie have as they sing this song from their hearts .!!!
lol whittingham Just remembering a tearful Willie Nelson at the funeral of Ray Charles.
lol whittingham dlues
Now that's Feels like music from the soul
Awesome!!
My father (RIP) loved this song. Ergo, I'm crying.
Great version. Kitschy maybe I know, but this song and Shenandoah never fail to bring a tear to my eye...
how could you not like this song?
my god what a song this is for all the truckies that are no longer with us....it is our theme song for those we have lost.may god be with you all we miss ya all.
2 Legit legends that not only challenged and changed their respective genres- but, influenced other genres as well.
I saw this live on PBS. It was a PBS special. Never will forget.
oh yes brother. these angels will be singing in heaven together; they already are; i'm sure willie goes to visit with john, and ray, and sing their songs in love
Nice music with class. A great song by two greatest Legend artist in time. Love this song. Thanks for posting this unique video by two Legends.
Die beiden singen und spielen mit dem Herzen. Ich war von der ersten Sekunde an verzaubert. Wundervoll!

Rip all of the men and women who fought and died for this country!
Two giants...Just awesome, the pathos in Ray's voice....Just Brilliant...
I loved this song the moment i heard it on willies roadhouse and went home and watched it over and over on youtube and this video is on of the best versions of this song. i memorized the whole damn thing 2
Much thanks to Ray and Willie I saw you live I will never forget that day. Awesome you always touch my soul.
Ray Charles ! The greatest singer's singer this world has ever known and when other singers sang with him, they always stepped up their own performance, just like Willie did here. Magical.
I heard this song just yesterday and fell in love with it! What a duet!
+MrRttan88 Try the song Lefty and Pancho by Willie and Merle. Beautiful Spanish guitar work and their voices blend together even better than Ray/Willie combo.
This song is bigger than country, western or balladry; this is life as we see it at its most extreme
God bless Ray and Willie.
The Lonestar State is very proud.
love them
yes wt im a texas native
WT Hendrix a
Yep, gotta love TEXAS, but Ray is from GEORGIA. Both these states must be said and written with all capitals.
The Peach State is v. proud, too :)
Simply beautiful. Two American original classics.
What a "finale" by Willie, just amazing
one of my dad favorite songs a good friend of him made him a cd with all the old country songs this one so beautiful. they would sing and play growing up music is always part of my life. truly speaks to my heart. thank you for sharing

this song was played at my cousin funeral who died sudden at only 26
R.I,P Martin
7 Spanish Angels???
It's such a beautiful song
God bless you and your family in 2024
I love this song. Wish I was able to sing along with this version. I like the studio version best I think.
This has got to be the best one out there.
Two legendary musicians I wish I would have met before they met their maker. Although Willie is still alive, he rarely performs anymore.
This is a great song. She must of had great taste. IMO Ray Charles is one of the greatest singers ever.
too beautiful to articulate in words
Well said!
Two Great Musicians!!!!
Thank you for nice music Willie Nelson Beautiful songs
How can there be 544 people who dislike this song?
I remember hearing it on a local country station in the Catskills. I thought, “What a combination, a country legend and the King of blues (my opinion) doing a duet”. 😳❤️🤫☘️
Connie was one of those angels and when she died a light left this planet for those of us who loved her.
A very beautiful song and so well done
One of my favorite songs of all time. This is simply beautiful.
These two artists are simply AMAZING.
Everytime my best friend would hear this song he would always have to blast it, he died 4 years back and we played it at his funeral. There isnt a day that goes by that I don't think of him, I can always listen to this song and it always makes me smile, just remembering the good times. :) RIP Kevin...We love and miss you!
Another great Song done by two great artists a song that will live on and on unlike the one hit wonders ,this is lengendary music..
Every time I hear it I feel better, wonderful song
Wow, this gave me goose bumps. Awesome
me too
Really love this song,their voices compliment each other.Both brilliant singers.
absolutely MAGNIFICENT!
thanks for sharing
Willie is a legend on his own, but his duets are the songs that get stuck in my heart and mind. I absolutely love "Seven Spanish Angels" with Ray Charles, but I can also listen to "Faded Love" with Ray Price, over and over again.
Bogu božije o bože hvala ti za ovaj divni glas,,,,, nek te slave djeca tvoja,,,,
This is the best version better than the studio version
"AND 7 SPANISH ANGLES TOOK ANOTHER ANGEL HOME" " YES IT WAS "
