Anyone in 2024
Everyone 😊
Yes
Yep
Man this is such a good song and it will always be be a good song
When music was still music......
🤠
Kids today don’t understand how big this band was. These are literally the Avengers of outlaw country
❤❤❤❤
Hell, I'm a kid but love the highwaymen
The cowboys of modern
What did your grandparents say about your music style?
@@dennisjakobsen1648 Are you trying to start a debate?. Real music was around in the late 1800's and early 1900's that my grandparents listened too, not mindless beats for cavemen that people listen today. Modern music has NO skill or talent from the musicians its just people selling a message of sin to manipulate the children to support evil (in my opinion). The highwaymen is great
Cash, Nelson, Kristofferson, Jennings. What a damn group.
and Reggie Young in the background :) good days long ago
No it's Johnny Willie Kris and Waylon
@@mikes.488 his guitar.... best part for me
1985: this is a legendary song
2000: this is a legendary song
2024: this is a legendary song
2100: this is a legendary song
It’ll last forever
Legends don’t die
nope it is a myth,for the young generations who doesn't know what a legend means.
@@siebetana5898 What bullshit you’re on sir?
Legends
No matter how many times I hear this song, it's never long enough.
Came here to see these guys one more time after watching all of them on Ken Burns' most excellent "Country Music" anthology.
Willie a little off beat
I took the studio version and made an extended version of it myself. Runs about 20 minutes
Crab Mint he’s always off beat just a little bit... it’s part of his signature sound
@@almightysosa35
Willie is never off beat. It's not his fault the band can't follow his lead.🤗
It's impressive to me that a country song can be about armed banditry, sailing, large-scale construction projects, interstellar space travel and reincarnation.
It was the 70's. The age of free love (and drugs) hadn't quite faded yet, and so you had some very unique ballads coming up in that time. You couldn't even say the 70's was anything in particular musically. There were soooo many good tunes coming from everywhere back then, that whole decade was swimming in gold and this was a part of that. It often felt like it was time to toss the old rules out of what couldn't be done and just go with the flow. These Boys were among those who helped revitalize country in a way no one had thought possible, and we'll all love them for it forever.
@@michaelheath2866 The song was released in 1985.
Michael Heath I don’t think they were doing drugs bud 😝
Not originally a country song. Written and first recorded by Jimmy Webb, produced by George Martin in 1977. Much more pop and orchestral. Webb was a friend of Waylon Jennings who recorded several of his songs including “MacArthur Park.”
@@tonkaGuy888 You aren't wrong, but for me the point is that country embraced the song and made it their own by implementing a country feel and beat. The lyrics being what they are were still embraced by country, which involves the song into the canon of country music. So the original comment can still be applicable. If country stars had said, "Hey this thematic content isn't country and we don't want to do it" then it wouldn't be a country music song. But it is because Webb's inspired lyrics inspired these stars as well.
This is what country music is supposed to sound like. No egos or attitudes. Just a group of great men singing for us. They're music continues to lift us up to a better place.
I would’ve done almost anything to see these legends perform together in person. We’re gifted to see this recorded
Saw this show back at the Capitol Center here in MD. Phenomenal!!!!!!!
Very true my freind...
not uncommon. When Cash steps up: goosebump city, man.
On their worldtour the visited Denmark, and I had the luck to be there - I count that experience in with a few others - personalities all, so great.....
i like how they cheer everytime a different singer starts singing
yea cos every one of em was big enough to get his own show
I think it's pre-recorded audience. I'm not saying they're not deserving, but some producers take liberties with audience sounds. The way the roar of this video comes and goes makes me believe it's an edit audience reaction.
Yeah and cash gets the loudest
The editing in this video is pretty funny.
@@rcleme I think its the opening song and they are getting their fans greetings.. I could be entirely wrong but that's what it sound like to me
My father died to this song in a hospice in Dublin in 2015 tapping his finger to the beat.Less than 10 seconds after it finished he died.
I like to think we don't die but just pass on. Taking some of these songs with us to the beyond. Sorry for your loss.
"but I will remain, and I will back again and again and again"
good sleep! RIP
R.I.P to your father
hope he's happy for this is the last song he listened to
My father, who died in 2011, Looked exactly like Willie Nelson in that video... My Papa used to always get mad When he was told that he looked like Willie and he always corrected everybody and would say:
"NO, Willie Looks like me because I'm 15 years older than he is!"
I miss him, and will see him in heaven.
May your father rest in peace,I couldn’t never picture my father in a coffin as he is as my god,the love that I have for him no other person on this world will understand,I am really sorry for your lost😢
Rest in Peace to your father friend! Im 22 and couldnt imagine losing my parents ❤️ You're a strong human! You will see him again! God bless!! 🙏
I miss my dad every day.
You made me cry, my man.
Haha that's funny.
Still watching in 2024! I’ll still be watching in ‘25, ‘26, ‘27. Because I’ll be back again, and again, and again.
and allways be around, and around, and around, and around...
😂😂😂
How did the world not implode when these 4 men hit the stage at one time?!
@@sterlingmoon1788 you dont understand what good music is.
Sterling Moon L
Sterling Moon not the smartest man, are you
I don’t know
@@sterlingmoon1788 stfu you blue bastard your one of them fuckers that listen to new age shit
When I was a boy Willie Nelson was old, and now 30 years later and he is still old, I think this dude was born old!
😆
Wille said recently: “I think that yougmen of today should thing about what kind of world they want to leave for me and Kieth Richards” 😂😂😂
I was talking about that the other day. I'm 35 and hes looked exactly the same for as long as I can remember
I'm 70 and Willie looks younger than me...boy this dude is growing younger as we get older......spooky....
Lol this is actually a quote from The Sopranos where Paulie met some old ladies and told them how they were old when he was a kid and now he's old and they're still old 😹
More talent on that stage in a single night than in all of the music industry today.
You are certainly right about that talent versus the wanna be's today!!!!
I beg to differ. Dont look at the charts if you want true talent, look at the non mainstream genres and underground stuff, just like its always been.
To stick with the country theme, here are a few examples:
Blues Saraceno (gothic country/blues/hard rock/heavy metal)
The White Buffalo (alternative country/country/roots rock)
The Brothers Bright (modern alternative rock)
The Heavy Horses (country/roots)
Brother Dege (gothic americana/lafayette indie/modern blues rock/rebel blues)
@@zizor1759 That's not the music industry. The music industry is all about charts and ratings and mainstream, radio programming, market share, demographics and advertising. That's what makes it an INDUSTRY.
@@xaenon9849 To be fair, Blues Saraceno, The White Buffalo and Brother Dege has had their music in Hollywood productions, so its not entirely underground. But i see your point.
@@zizor1759- thanks for those recommendations 😊
The wife caught me listening to this with tears in my eyes. :)
No shame in that.
God bless ya
🙏 love you mate
Wonder if Johnny Cash is still flying that starship across the universe?
You betcha
Hope so
QoPP Or perhaps a single drop of rain?
I can't believe I dropped a tear after reading that comment.
Yeah, I hope so. I hope he's among the stars somewhere.
He is a simple drop of rain probably
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is a masterpiece!
Do you like fish sticks?
What are you a gay fish?
It's like a 5 minute opiate.
This is good song
SO...........What is the difference between a Fish Fart and a Bass Turd? I'm sure you get the joke.
Call me crazy, but I listened to this song for over 250 times in just 2 weeks
Me to
😂 me too, never really a country fan from what I heard then discovered Johnny cash and steamrolled from there
i know.
So did I and I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again...
A Very Stirring Song! All of these Hero’s in fine voice!
Guys, I've just discovered this. 2024. Aged 38.
Life has been forever changed.
I know you're binge listening ❤
A chill runs down my spine when Johnny Cash starts to sing...
Same
Me too and also with Waylon
If You feel like that, the listen to the crowd in this version, as soon as Cash starts singing...ruclips.net/video/lrM_OtfESUE/видео.html
Asllan Pizzatto chills run up and down my spine with each new singer.
That last verse he sings
Willie: Robber
Kris: Sailor
Waylon: Dam builder
Johnny: SPACEMAN
Taking to into account the drugs they consumed it's quite accurate Jonny being the spaceman.
Thanks
Look up on YT Marty Stuart's commenting about presenting this song to Johnny Cash. Marty was thinking of the 4 guys and knew they wouldn't have to sing the verses together/harmonize which was good because of Willie's and Johnny's voices being so different. Marty said Johnny said "I want the one about the spaceship." The Stuart quote is only a couple of minutes long and easy to find.
Orrrrr..uh... idk
A fucking pilot?
He Means Fighter Jet Pilot
Clicking on this little 3 minute video out of nothing but curiosity with no context of the highwaymen, has been one of the best choices I’ve ever made. I just keep this song on repeat…again, and again, and again, and again, and again
Every song is a banger
I knew each of them separately except of Kriss, when i found out about the highwaymen i dedicated to learn almost every song.
A timeless classic performed by four timeless entertainers! Thank you Johnny, Waylon, Willie, and Kris for all the great music! God bless Country music!
I would consider this country folk-rock music before country.
God has and is and will forever bless this music born out of the necessity of goodness.
❤
Makes me sad to watch this. We'll never see talent this great again in Country or music in general for that matter. These guys were for real. RIP Waylon and Johnny.
there is some hope. Look at Colter Wall
You won’t see live music again unless you stand up to this BS
Be sad for those who are gone but not for the future. For every day that goes by I feel the shift in the air ever more and a new wind will soon start blowing.
Never will they b singers like this 4
@@mattj9197 stand up to what?
I saw Willie live last weekend. Still playing that same guitar
Trigger is his best friend
Where did you see him? My friend Patrick Ross saw him too, was it in Vermont?
He’s made it known multiple times that when trigger is done he’s done
@@FotoFinn Virginia Beach
Im about to see him next week cant wait to see trigger
I am playing in 2024 love this song I am in the UK
This live version is my favorite. Can’t find many musicians who sound even better live these days.
This is talent that cannot be replicated
yep nowdays its just mumbling into the mic and no effort at all cause everyone of em is a dumbass who doesn't know true quality from absolute shit.
Right on!
Have you tried Ashley Campbell's version?
@@jacobh2714 thanks for the pointer!
I miss so much old school😍 no more
It was truly an honor and privilege to have been the Director of Photography on this memorable night. To work with all these talented singer songwriters and to brush up against greatness.
Lucky.
Very cool 😎
You did well I’d say the camera work is excellent in my opinion. I wasn’t born yet but it wish I could have been there
@@charliestokes4520 Thanks Charlie. We had some talented camera operators on the show.
Wow that is some achievement. The camera work was fantastic, hope you’re doing well brother
No matter how many times I hear this, Waylon starts singing- and I get chills.
Fĺiiw jjoq099999990. Iijiq j q julgou
Waylon is the greatest of all time
@@hancockfamilyfarms9493 johnny, then waylon in my opinion
@@jacksonmeads1161 I'm with you man. There's a reason Johnny gets to be the Spaceman in this one, lol
Him and Johnny both give me chills
I just discovered this song. 30.09.2023. Can you imagine WHAT A DISCODERY at late night YT surfing. Such a great performance and vibe of the 90's. Pure gold.
Welcome to a place of peace and fantastic music
I also just found out about this SUPERGROUP
I like to imagine being a member of them, sharing their adventures and stories. What a group man.. what a band..
I'm a 48 year old metal head who came across this song when I was hooked on drugs and lost. I felt this song and these men's spirits. I am clean and sober now and so glad I have this song and these men in my life. That's all
God bless
❤️
God bless you!
Hang in there,it gets better.
Celebrating my 28th year of sobriety.
Life is good.
Like the line at 1:11 :) hang in there m8
Amazing!!! God Bless You Brother!
God bless you
Masterpiece. Possibly the coolest song ever written.
I enjoy and listen heaaavy metal but i come Back to this song. Perfection
There is nothing cool about guns.
@@aquafckface huh
@@aquafckface You need to listen more closely to the lyrics
@@aquafckface fkn baby
This song always brings hot tears to my eyes. Hymn to the Unknown Fallen Workmen of the world!
ONLY TWO LEGENDS LEFT, I'LL ALWAYS LOVE THESE FOUR GENTLEMEN, I WILL ALWAYS LOVE THEM! LOVE AND MISS YOU WAYLON AND JOHNNY, REST IN PEACE BROTHERS
Well said! Both Nelson and Kristoferson are in their late 80s. This band was magnificent!
@@Andrew_London Indeed. And yet somehow, they are still around and around and around. 🥲
This is the best-sounding version of this song, in my opinion. Great video quality too.
_I was a highwayman_
I wank myself 👍
you seen Albert Lees piano version?
MichaelTJD60 if you like it in in fast forward!!
Glen Campbell’s version is the best-sounding
Can we take a moment to appreciate the brilliant guitar playing of Reggie Young? The man was a legendary session guitarist in Memphis and Nashville. His band once toured with The Beatles as their opening act. He played guitar on some of the biggest hits of artists such as Elvis Presley and Willie Nelson. He was also a member of Jimmy Buffet's Coral Reefer Band.
Is he playing electric in the background? I love his tone
@@michaelfountain2620 Yes, he's the one doing all the little fills and flourishes between the verses and choruses.
THANK YOU for identifying him. The riffs he played in the breaks make this song truly memorable.
Thank you!!!! I have been wondering who was doing that amazing guitar work for years and years.
He was an exceptional and effortless player.
A masterpiece. We will never experience music like it again
Lyrics..
I was a highwayman
Along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of '25
But I am still alive
I was a sailor
I was born upon the tide
With the sea I did abide
I sailed a schooner 'round the Horn to Mexico
I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
But I am living still
I was a dam builder
Across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around
I'll always be around, and around and around
And around and around and around and around
I'll fly a starship
Across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll come back again, and again
And again and again and again and again
And again
Thanks
Thank you 😊
This song is to short, is amazing
Thanks
Willie Nelson’s voice is like velvet.... effortless and unique.
"Effortless and unique" - yes - "like velvet" - not so much! LOL. Love Willie but would never characterize his voice "like velvet." Sort of think of folks like Johnny Mathis and Nat King Cole when I think of "like velvet."
@@TheDonnalovesmusic not really his voice is velvety
@@skylinegamer3606 Well, to each his/her own. Velvety to you. Not velvety to me. Happy listening!
I agree.. warm and velvety and smooth and sweet like honey. It's fucking beautiful and inimitable.
Velvet. Noun. An effortless and unique fabric.
"I was born upon the tide,
And with the sea I did abide."
Pure poetry in just two lines and he sang it perfectly and hauntingly.
Typical Jimmy Webb. Dude has a way with words.
You know they did not write it, right?
It's so beautiful too because it's not even about the ocean. It's about whatever circumstances you're born into. It shapes your upbringing but not necessarily your life.
So lovely... ... ...
@R H 77
such legends, its always eerie to me that the two who sang "i am still alive" and "i am living still" are still alive and the two who sang "i am still around" and "but i will remain" have passed. rip waylon and johnny.
They always will be around, as long as we have the music
Yes mate
I am obsessing over this specifically.
I can’t get enough of this song♥️.
1:30 That line, ''A place called Boulder on the Wild Colorado!" haunts me, from just how beautifully it got sang.
Third verse was always my favorite. That exact line for some reason seems so incredible to me, the depth of his voice on the last few words of that line maybe.
I Thought I Was The Only One... He Did It So Perfect
Same lol he hits that shit so hard
This few words give really a great portrait of USA and of its people. Wonderful. (sorry for my english)
"I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow" 👌👌
Now I understand why my grandfather liked country music. R.I.P Manuel
yeah, old country music is FAR superior to the crap from the last 30 years
ME TOO😍😍
When you go more past you go forward in country music.
i'am 12 and i love it
How have I only just discovered this song (and band) in 2023!!? Absolute beautiful song by legends.
4 simple, real men, paying tribute to other, real, simple working men, who gave their lives, to build society.
Wow- great comment. You nailed it
Yea, especially the Highwayman. Robbing and killing innocent people. He's really building society man!
You missed it
I was fortunate to have seen The Highwaymen live and it was an incredible show... These 4 gentlemen were the power group of power groups... R.I.P Johnny & Waylon...
the traveling wilburys, honorable mention.
I saw them, too. What a fantastic concert that was !!!
but they'll be back again and again and again...☺😃😁
@@suecollins1991 I’m probably not the 😊😊😊
I wish I had gone and attended. I saw Waylon and his steel guitarist, the incomparable Ralph Mooney, many times in many places, and Willie and a collection of other country artists from that era too...but I wish I had attended a Highwayman concert. Thankfully we have several recorded concerts from these legendary musical artists to enjoy.
I've told my friends that if I ever had a time machine, I would go to this concert. I wouldn't want to mess up time, or start a war, but put me at Nassau Coliseum on March 14, 1990, and I'd be a happy man.
@Vlad Semko well, I suppose you could go back in back but instead you create like a sort of "observer mode" or a bubble of some sort so you don't interact anything that will affect the future.
Hell, I’d go up and sing with em
How u no it won't mess up time butterfly effect
Funny. I was there too.
The majority of my time travel fantasies involve going to concerts 😁
Amongst thousands of country musics of the entire world I heard, this one has an extremely place. Like no one, this touches one's soul
My dad drove bus for this tour the California leg, he was with Kris and his 17yr old son. It was some good stories, my dad always had stories he drove for greyhound for 35 yrs. But he came home with so much stuff from this tour, including a backstage pass signed by all of them, priceless. My dad died in 2012 from cancer at 78, but he had a life full of stories. FYI there were some Kris and smoking stories and how his son was a wild child, i think his name was Casey, not sure.
And the backing band......simply flawless delivery, what an outfit!
After listening to both this and the studio version , I can truly say that this is so much better on every level. Delivery is top notch and the backing instruments are soooo much better.
The biggest difference is in delivery. So much more soul on this stage than in any studio recording.
Especially Regio. He blends so well with the tune.
This song walks Cash on our sword!
Guess the tickets sold out a year in advance
@@dudekfox7685 Yes...he was quite a telaent also.
The shear joy and happiness in Kristofferson’s face gets me every time. Watching Jan 2021
Same! :)
Yep
I was just thinking the same thing
Same
Exactly.
Came here after watching the Netflix movie Our souls at Night.
Brilliant song 🎵 👌
Great combinations of musicians!!
I was a soldier- I stormed the beach in 44', but I didn't reach the shore...
I watched the water change from blue to crimson red;
I heard the medic tell the Chaplain I was dead.
I gave my life so other people could live free- for Eternity.
I like this it's nice and fits the song perfectly I always wanted the song to just have a bit more lyrics because I really love it
@@therdrfanboi1899 Glad you liked it! I penned it because I felt the same as you and wished this song had more lyrics. If you're a musician I hope you use it! God bless.
@@Peace2U-ec6es god bless you too!
I couldn't imagine being lucky enough to see this live!!!
The Highwaymen was a brilliant concept, putting 4 legends together, not just electronically, but as a performing entity, brilliant!
Entièrement d'accord avec vous,,, inoubliable
So true...I just wish Willie didn’t mail it in but that’s about all he ever did so
Thank you.
Quel dommage que Merle Haggard n'ait pas été le cinquième!
@@60BloodyChamp60 rude. If you're not a Willie fan, just say that
this is one of the best song ever written/composed/performed.... all of these guys are legends... but every time Cash sings his part...goosebumps galore!!!
Johnny Cash's voice was one-of-a-kind, a gift.
@Nes Ally I have one very close..you need to have suffered a lot and have natural deep voice..and get the notes right of course
True American hero. Flaws and all just like all of us👍💪
Goosebumps from Australia
Same here
This is the best crowd I’ve ever seen for a singular song and I feel like there isn’t another song that deserves this much love
This video is just unbelievable. The peak of the peak of the best side of America. Four unbelievable artists, an amazing public cheering them on, Reggie Young, a great great song about life and death. A guitar with a hole, a starship to top it all! Oh how I wished I was there. So good that this has been recorded in good quality, to be preserved forever!
Thank you and God bless you, this is real art
The electric guitar fills during and in between verses is literally tone goals
Johnny isn't playing and there is very faint rhythm from maybe Kris.
@@doug5853 I’m talking about Reggie Youngs bud.
@@weirsy4562 sorry, I know, it is amazing. Just commenting on the redundant guitars on stage!
Especially after Waylon sings the best line in the whole song, “A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado”.
Yesss Reggie Young's riffs are like ecstasy for the ears!!!
How can this masterpiece not send chills down your spine????!!!!! I'm not a huge country fan, but even this song had me shivering
Because it’s the Mount Rushmore of country singers
Well...it actually DID send chills, so I don't really have an answer to your question. LOL
@@BEASTMODEJR-xf5ky The song is beautiful - written by Jimmy Webb. He also wrote Up, Up and Away, done by the 5th Dimension. Super song writer. As beautiful as the song is - I think the magic of this performace is this performance. The four powerhouse stars. The dancing other-worldly nature of the guitars. Everything about this video/recording is ethereal and a work of art.
Well, it isn't a "country" song, per se. Written by Jimmy Webb, it just happened to be a hit by these super legends. He wrote other hit songs for other artists. One example of a totally not country sound, was Up Up and Away by the Fifth Dimension from the late 60's.
@RD H Remember, it's Jimmy Webb's lyrics. And Johnny's interpretation of them.
1992, Sydney Australia. I was 5 row from center stage. Willie, Waylon, Johnny, Kris.
This is the best Live performance. I will never forget. Legends.
just unbelievable in every direction. the songwriting, playing, and singing voices. Immaculate and perfect. I love this song so FUCKING much
Best super group of all time and I would give the world to be able to see them play live R.I.P. gentlemen you are sorely missed
At least Willie ain't dead
Phoenix Flores Kris Kristofferson isn’t dead
........Yet
MARS MABILIS DREW BILLI QUICK QuICK True, he’s like 83, but he still sounds amazing, all of them will and have performed until the very end
The Dirty Mac is a good super group. (John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Mitch Mitchell.)

@@tommyacuna6384 clearly not.

What a fabulous and artistic tribute to the concept of reincarnation, I'm sure whoever wrote this song is one really deep thinker. The way the time-line is laid out in the form of the characters and the time they each lived based on what they did in life is simply genius. Not to mention that having each part done by a different person definitely brings a whole new dimension to it😊
That would be Jimmy Webb.
@@GoatOfTheWoods Thanks, yeah, he has written some of the greatest and my favorite songs. He definitely is a genius, thats for sure.

어브콜스~~
I found this song eight days ago, haven't stopped listening since. Such storytelling, poetry. This is pure magic.
I do the same thing. Find a new song that moves me, then play it nonstop for a few weeks.
check out the video
I found this song in Gta 5 online. I was changing my clothes in a store in the country part of the map and this music was playing. I searched for it and found it on youtube and never realised that this band even exists. It blew my mind and since I found this song I also never stopped playing it. Also this live performance give me goose bumps. Its like you say. Pure magic!
Alexa played this song when I asked her to play Johnny Cash last month, and I haven't stop listening to it every night by my firepit. It blows me away.
Check out Pancho and Lefty, if you haven't already.
The power in the voice of Jonny Cash is unreachable forever
Hello how are you
@@alicesteve5205 still going strong
JOHNNY'S entry gave goosebumps because he had such a Buddhist perspective of life,it just resonates with my beliefs and when he sang that,it gave such a thrill. Really love that man and all these men
The WHOLE thing is this perspective and its great. The Highwayman's soul improves with each incarnation. He moves from being one who takes value, to one who adds value, to one who builds, to one who explores. It tells more in 3 minutes than most movies do in an hour.
crazy these legends performed together... never again will there be something like this.
The most manliest song ever!!
@@nagi9990 how the fuck is saying something is manly sexist you uneducated potato

The energy this song gives off is unbelievable. I've listened to this 1000's of times over the years & it's gives me goosebumps everytime!
amigo, es la primera vez que la escucho. Alto flash.
Same here especially when Johnny cash sings
been there. Know this...:))
Me too i keep singing it in my sleep... Help me please.
Same!
Willie's timing is beauty to behold. Decades earned confidence. Comes in whenever he wants - exactly when he wants. Never when boring dictates.
The worst thing about this song is that it ends after 2 minutes and 54 seconds :(
The worst thing about Tony stark is that he ends in 2023
@@yauyau6468 Tony Stark never dies, he'll be back :D
@@9833000 lol
But you can replay it again and again and again.
USE LOOP and play this as long as you LIKE!
"I was a burger flipper, back in the summer 20. When the Rona hit, they said I shit my pants and died, but I am still alive."
I'll always be alive....
I will always be around.
Lmao!!!
Simon que si' brother!
Dam
Best of the best. This would be my funeral -song.
Mine too :)
This is a brilliant song that never gets old. What fabulous entertainers. I never saw The Highwaymen live but saw Willie and Waylon in Milwaukee so many years ago and they were fabulous.
Lyrics
I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of '25
But I am still alive
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
And with the sea I did abide
I sailed a schooner 'round the horn to Mexico
I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed
But I am living still
I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that gray tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around
I'll always be around and around and around
And around and around and around
I'll fly a star ship across the universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll be back again and again and again
And again and again and again
Thank you for these lyrics. I had never seen them line by line like this. Brought a whole new meaning to this song for me.
Like they are hard to hear?
@@user-zc5ft9nw9b When you are hard of hearing, the answer is yes. Thank you.
I wrote another verse to this song. For 911 I sing it when I can. I was a businessman, on the towers I reside... A flash of light came flying by, they said I died. LOL I'm not telling the rest. Saving it for the stage
@@m2lazy4u k cool
Kris Kristofferson looks like he’s having the time of his life
Kris said in an interview that he had a hard time feeling he deserved to be up there with the other three, because they, Cash especially, were the men he himself idolized when he came to Nashville. So, when you think about it. He got the best of both worlds. He got to be in the show and also had the best seat in the house for the show.
As a man who once emptied these other 3 ash trays... im sure he was!
Hell, who WOULDN'T be? LOL Playing in a packed venue, on a stage with 3 freaking legends?
They all were!!!
@@brandonmuir8944 you emptied their ash trays? That’s pretty cool ngl
These four were giants of their own accord, yet chose to perform together for the love of the music. Thank you,
I'd really like to be an american, just to feel the patriotic of listening this four titans singing together, let alone being 20 years younger and actually being in this concert
I was in that crowd at this show.
Lucky bastard! I would've loved to be there but they never played in my country :(
Damn, i wish i could travel 30 years ago to a time before i was even born
@Lord Bolton same
I wish i was. But i'm Swedish, and to young :D
Your so lucky
„Or I may simply be a single drop of rain…“ - what a beautiful and poetic line full of humility and hope, what a great song!
I love that part of the song
it feels like : Thre´s no other Song like this on Earth : It makes something with your MIND !... and it feels so good ! WE ARE HUMAN FAMALY !
Definitely no other song like it. No way.
@@WandaPizzazzThanks! Greetings from Germany WE ARE ONE FAMALY ONE HUMEN MIND
What is would give to see these men live
Doctor: "I'm sorry sir, you have two minutes left to live. Is there anything we can do to make you more comfortable?"
Patient: "Play "Highwayman" by the Highwaymen. The live version..."
Doctor: "Sir...I'm sorry...that song is two minutes and fifty four seconds...you won't get to finish the song..."
Death, smoking a cigar in the corner: "I'll wait. You play that man his song."
Have a puff sir.
Damn straight!!!
Best comment I’ve seen in a lonnnng time 👌🏻
**LOVE IT AND ALL OF THESE ICONS!!!**
**GOD BLESS THEM!!!**
fuck yeah!!
A three minute masterpiece. Credit is overdue to Reggie Young, the guy playing the electric guitar; his harmonies I hear again and again and again.
Exactly
Shoutout to him from cash in "ghost riders in the sky"
Thank you for the comment because I never could figure out who was playing so brilliantly.
Brutal!!
Thanks for mentioning his name, I was wondering about it
The admiration they had for each other is a amazing, you can see it when they look at each other! LEGENDS!! ❤️
I don't listen to this genre much. But I play this one video probably 50 times a month, with just my headphones.
Isn't that odd?
I don't think is odd, it is right, I do the same
Johnny's verse always brings a tear to my eye.
