When you hear his voice it’s so hard to believe that he was 29 when he died. Definitely an old soul. I hope you dive into the super old school country rabbit hole.
Yes a number of great musicians died young because of substance abuse, but if you only focus on that part of their lives you are missing out. I'm not speaking about you I'm talking about people who think that way about those musicians. I used to think like that myself.
He has almost attained the status of a mythical figure. The world will probably not see an artist like him again.
Jimmie Rodgers and Vernon dalhart if they really want real orgins
@@beaujac311he had a serious back issue and the alcohol numbed the pain so he could perform…
His grandson sounds very much like him.
Hank Williams is one of the greatest music figures most important and influential singer/songwriters of the 20th century.
His impact is felt in almost every genre of music from rock to Gospel.
His greatest hits include:
"Lovesick Blues", "Hey, Good Looking", "Your Cheating Heart", "I Saw The Light", "Honky Tonk Blues", "Jambalaya", "Move It On Over", "I'll Never Get Out Of The World Alive", "Take These Chains From My Heart".
Jambalaya is Sooo Good. and I Saw The Light is just .... Transcendent.
"Mansion On The Hill"!
Lovesick blues is not his song
"Why Don't You Love Me (Like You Used to Do)" and "Pictures From Life's Other Side" should be on that list..
Long Gone Lonesome Blues is a must R I P Hank
Hank Sr was a corner stone of country music, ironically he was fired from the Grand Old Opry. He was the epitome of heartache, drinking, women and the music reflected it all. Thanks for this review. ❤❤
The Original Country Outlaw
I don't think people today can truly realize just how big a star Hank Williams was. There hadn't been an Elvis or anyone else to compare him to.
Speaking of the Opry...,,,You absolutely have to listen to Hank Williams the 3(Hank Sr"s grandson)song 'The Grand Ole Opry Aint So Grand Anymore.' It's about trying to get Hank Sr reinstated into the Grand Ole Opry. Hank 3 is absolutely brilliant, To ignore him is to ignore country history.
and unfortunately his son turned out to be a right-wing a**hole.
@@nickface55He truly impacted rock with many of his songs that were changed somewhat and became hits again! A trailblazer!
My mom was a country music fan. I grew up listening to Patsy Cline, Jim Reeves, Wanda Jackson, and of course Hank Williams. Mom would sing out loud to this song while cleaning the house. Thanks for the visit with mom. ❤
Was my moms' favorite singer. I remember her crying when he died. I was about 9 yrs old.
Twang.

"Move It On Over" is arguably a contender for one of the roots of rock and roll .
George Thorogood does a great cover of that one!!!
One of my Hank favorites!, definitely got that rockabilly side to it.
I agree, Hanks melody was the same beat as Rock Around The Clock by Bill Haley and The Comets
@@philipdickey6460 I am not sure if Hank Williams Snr was first to use that beat, it is a form of Western Swing and he brought it out in 1948 but I have not looked at other writers etc of that time , Bill Haley was with the 4 Aces of Western Swing then and they had a very different style from what I can find audio of.
Double up on "Move It On Over," by listening to this version followed by George Thurogood's version.
“The silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky, and as I wonder where you are, I’m so lonesome I could cry.” One of the saddest verses of any song, any genre, at least to my ears. Thanks so much for this one! If you haven’t done Honky Tonkin’, I think you like it.
Yes the pace that hank sings it doesn't highlight the the song as lyrically as it can which is why I prefer Elvis' version. Elvis said it was the saddest song he ever heard. The lyrics are masterful.
Exactly! I said to myself Wow, that last verse was so beautifully heartbreaking!
That could easily be a Pink Floyd verse.
The way he is singing so simply, but he exaggerates some syllables. Man oh man. There's just never been another like Hank.
😮😅😅
This was my dads music. I was born in ‘58, grew up in the ‘60’s and spent my teen years in the ‘70’s. This is what I always considered classic country/western genre. I really enjoy your show. Watch it every night.
He was my Dad's favorite too.
I was born in 58 too. 😊
Me Three!@@Rocker1983
I grew up in the same era that you did, what a great time!!!
Same era hear too he was my grandads favorite still remember seeing
His album at Grandpas wish I had it now.
One of the very best lyricists of the twentieth century.
Dose un peu mec, toujours dans l'exagération ces amerloques....
@@conseilavise4855what?? 😂 Hank is one of the greatest songwriters ever buddy.
"The moon just went behind the clouds, to hide it's face and cry"......pure poetry!
The lyrics to this song are so poetic. Elevated writing.
"The silence of a falling star, lights up a purple sky"
Incredible lyric.
A fact about Hank Williams. He was born with an undiagnosed form of Spina Bifida Occulta. A spinal cord defect which has a few different forms. This lack of diagnosis caused Hank lifelong pain which lead to the morphine addiction and heart failure that killed him. Personally, I was born with another form of Spina Bifida called Myelomeningocele - I know, it's a big name lol. Just thought you both would find it interesting.
Wow! My late son had Spina Bifida...I would have thought this was a story I'd have heard! Thanks.
Oh..that's easy for me to say..followed by Shunted Hydrocephalus, Chiari Malformation, and Kyphosis .. sending green healing light energy..XooX
@@lifewuzonceezr No problem, I'm sorry to hear about your son. Another musician not many know was also born with SB is John Mellencamp
Didn’t know that about Mellancamp. Thanks!
Country Music isnt’t country anymore!
When I go home (to Montgomery) at Christmas every year, I always visit his grave just to pay my respect. He’s a music legend. He was 29 when he passed! He had such an old soul. You’d never think the man singing this song was in his 20s!
“The moon just went behind the clouds to hide his face and cry” 😢was there ever a better line? Love your reaction.
He laid the foundations of modern country music that everyone took and ran with.
It ain't country music without a steel guitar and a fiddle. I love the old country music too.
This and Tear in my beer are iconic.
Cause I'm crying for you dear...
Hank Jr.'s video for Tear In My Beer sticks with a person. At least it has with me.
@@KuscosPoison Came here to comment this exact thing!
@ he was the first one name country singer that no one ever said who?
He is THE GOAT of country music to this day
Really love “spending some time” with y’all when you do your reactions. Right now, I’m so HAPPY I could cry! Thanks for sharing your time with us. Keep on being the sweet and kind souls that you are. The world needs so many more folks like y’all.
In 47 years I had never seen my father cry, but I saw it after he buried his Mother and they played this song on "Country Gold Saturday Night!"
My favorite country song. Not only was Hank country's first super star he was the original outlaw of country music he died at 29 yrs old
Thank you for reacting to Hank Williams. My dad was a big fan of his and would sing his songs around the house. I chose one of Hank Williams' songs to be played at Dad's Celebration of Life last year.
He didn't live a very long life, but put out some great music in that short time. "Your Cheatin' Heart" is one of his really well-known songs, as well as "Your Cold Cold Heart", but if you want something more upbeat, try "Hey Good Lookin'" or "Jambalaya (On the Bayou.)" He also got into some gospel with "I Saw the Light."
(Edit - looks like you already reacted to "Your Cold Cold Heart!" I'd forgotten about that. )
Don't leave "(I Can't Help It If) I'm Still in Love with You" off the love-sick blues list!
I grew up with Hank William's songs. My mom would play guitar and sing them to me. This song is one of the first songs I remember singing along to. All of Hank William's songs are well-worth a listen.
"Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves begin to die, that means he's lost his will to live". I am so lonesome I could cry" Pure poetry.
Hank singing the blues. Hank really was a blues singer, country style, his lyrics says it all.
Great synopsis as usual Amber and Jay. These old recordings are raw and not over-produced simply because the technology was not available at the time.
Recording tape had just been invented.
Yes and country musicians like their old R & B counterparts were recording in barebones studios - not Capitol Records in NY or Hollywood.
Thank you!!! The master of country music. I learned my first vocal to Your Cheating Heart by Hank. I was a whole 3 years old. This is country music! 1962 was a long time ago for me. Again thank you!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That voice and those lyrics. This is when country wasn't homogenized crossover pop.
A genius taken too young. Another one of our greatest songwriters, Leonard Cohen, wrote this about Hank in his "Tower of Song": “I said to Hank Williams, how lonely does it get? Hank Williams hasn't answered yet, But I hear him coughing all night long,Oh, a hundred floors above me in the Tower of Song.” He puts Hank that far above him, a real tribute to one of his heroes.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. So simple, but so poignant. You really feel his pain.
Goodness, haven't heard that in years! That was my Daddy's favorite ❤
A masterpiece. From one of the Masters. Can't do better. Enjoy! Simple and so sincere. Thank you.
Quick background on Hank Williams. He had a bad childhood and first marriage. Most of his songs reflect that. He also had health problems and a drinking problem leading to his death at the age of 29. Before his death he had over 50 top selling songs. He was influenced by both western and blues music.
What I consider to be not only the greatest COUNTRY song but the greatest song written ever!!
Hank is the country GOAT ! There are many treasures to find when you dig into the Hank Williams catalog. He had a lot of silly fun songs, too like, "Hey, Good Lookin" and "Move it on Over"
His son Hank Junior took it to a whole new level. 😊❤
There's an element of the blues in Hank's song...back then it was all connected, whether people would admit it or not, and the lyrics are really very poetic. The style may be called country, but this is really universal, for the world.
When I was young in the 70's, my family rented a houseboat for a week on Trinity Lake in California. It came with some 8 track tapes, one of which was Hank Williams' Greatest Hits. We were never big country music fans, but we played that over and over and I got to know all those songs. They've been in my head ever since. I always liked "Hey Good Lookin', What You Got Cookin'?"
This song is more than a country song -- it's a SONGWRITER'S song. Its sentiment is so universal that it's been covered dozens and dozens of times by people who normally have no relation to country music whatsoever. Bernadette Peters, possessor of one of the greatest voices (and bodies) ever, performed this song on the Johnny Carson show a few years back and it was so good it gave me goosebumps. You should be able to find that performance online and it's definitely worth listening to.
He was a lot more than kind of a standout, he was a huge sensation and his death shocked the nation.
He is literally the Father of Country Music. He has a whole slew of hits and amazing songs, it's a great rabbit hole to go down.
Long Gone Lonesome Blues. Hey Good Lookin'. Moanin' the Blues. Ramblin' Man. Jambalaya. Lost Highway. Move It On Over. I'll Never Get Out of this World Alive.
All of those and so many more are absolutely stellar.
I also wanted to point out that when you go listen to this older Country music, you will hear a lot more waltzes than we get in today's music. There are slow waltzes and medium Tempo waltzes and fast waltzes and it's a crucial part of that experience. Believe me, I know because I played in a honky tonk band for years and road houses and honky tonks, and if you don't have a really good selection of waltzes in your set, people will complain because they want to dance to waltzes, not just swing dance the whole time.
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry is a slow waltz.
I can listen to Hank all night. I saw this popup on notification and jumped to see your reaction.
One of Hank’s earliest songs, Move It On Over, is often credited with being the very first rock n’ roll record. It was released in 1948!
My grandpa, may he rest in peace, was born in 1907, and he listened and played this kind of country. Every time we visited my dad, brother, and grandpa would break out the guitars and play. So whenever I hear these songs it takes me back to those amazing times.💙
If you're familiar with Ken Burns, he did a series on country music from the beginning to current times. If you can, you should check it out.
I agree, it's an excellent series.
My dad was a big Hank Williams fan and while he loved the early Country /Western sound, he did not like "New Country. He called it "Nashville Glitter". Another early Country singer you should react to is Johnny Horton. His big hits include "When It's Springtime in Alaska", "North To Alaska" (Written for the John Wayne movie of the same name), "Sink the Bismark", "Whispering Pines" and "The Battle Of New Orleans". He had a marvelous voice and, like Hank Williams he died very young.
Johnny Horton was actually married to Billie Jean Horton (Jones) who was married to Hank Williams Snr. Before he passed.
Yes I agree , some Johnny Horton would be great I feel they would really enjoy him Also
The lyric, “The silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky, and as I wonder where you are, I’m so lonesome I could cry,” just empties my soul and makes me feel homesick.😩😩😩
I've always been a hard rocker with my interests in the mid 60's, 70's and up to the late 80's. However, growing up my father was a country music guy. So my early years were filled with this kind of music. My ex went through a country music phase and she was totally and completely amazed that I knew every word to this song and many others of Hank Sr's music.
I was born in the 50s and my parents didn't always have the newest television but we always had a good record player. This is one of the songs I remember my appearance playing when I was a child. Good to hear it again thank you
My parents not appearance
It is strange to think that this song is nearly 100 years old, and yet still holds a special place in the modern industry AND appeals to new generations that have never heard Hank Sr's work.
You might want to listen to his song "I saw the light" it has a very powerful message. I grew up listening to him and the older artists before him. It is wonderful to see youngsters like yourselves enjoying the simpler music from the past. People had to have a different level of talent to make it, because they didn't have to studious they have now.
Not much of a country person, but I absolutely love Don Williams. Tulsa Time, I Believe in You and Lord, I hope This Day is Good.
My bf had to make a sudden move several states away. For reasons too complicated to get into, it's likely we'll never see each other again. So how funny is it that this reaction popped up in my feed. Hank has always been my standby during heartbreaking moments. Thanks for putting this up! I agree with Rob - old school country sounds superior to modern country. I'll be sure to count my blessings despite my troubles. Thanks y'all ❤
This song breaks my heart every time I listen to it. Don’t get me wrong I love it , he died way to young ❤🥹
Hank Williams was the GOAT country. He had the smooth voice. He had the band. "Your Cheating Heart", "Cold Cold Heart", and "Hey Good Looking" are must listens.
Hank Williams was awarded a citation by the Pulitzer Prize Committee for his songwriting and his contributions to moving Country music into the mainstream of American culture. Yes, THAT Pulitzer Prize Committee.
Hank was known as the Hillbilly Shakespeare because of his brilliant songwriting, which was essentially poetry put to music.
My Dad played Hank all the time when I was little. My favorite 2 songs by him is Jambalaya and Kowliga.
You really had to be able to sing in these times loved it yall😊
Hank was a poet. "Silence of a falling star, lights up a purple sky." So beautiful.
Hank Williams Sr. is my favorite country music. None better. ❤️. My favorite song is Lovesick Blues.
It's very fun to hear again what I suppose is the original version by Hank Williams! I always remember the version from my Generation by B.J. Thomas in 1966. Definitely worth a Reaction, You Guys. Or at least a listen when you'd like. :) Great Choice, You Guys!! :)
I agree! I heard the '66 version first so this is new for me!
BJ Thomas was no slacker...loved his version as much as Hank's
Don't forget to listen to his son too. Hank Williams Junior Song "Family Tradition". Talks about him and his family History about his Dad's Drinking. So sad that Hank Sr left this world way to soon.
He not only sang, but one of the greatest if not the greatest country song writers of all time!!!
Such beautiful, poetic lyrics. Now you need to see & hear Elvis sing it. The song always gave him chills when he sang it. You can see his little shudder in a couple of live performance videos. He loved it.💙💫💫
Elvis sang this best in his Aloha from Hawaii concert ❤️
Bj Thomas did an incredible version of it, too.
Great masterpiece , no matter what style it’s labeled as.
The duet of Senior and Junior doing 'There's a tear in my beer' would make you so happy!
Hank Williams Sr. could turn a phase he used words to make you feel things you didn't know you could feel. He was known as the hillbilly Shakespeare.
They call him the Hillbilly Shakespear, he influenced so many artists.
Hank Williams Sr - " JAMBALAYA " another Country Classic this song is Fantastic in its sound and Hank Williams awsome voice. Also available in Spanish version also called JAMBALAYA sung in Mix of Spanish and English together sounds Amazing too Country Rock Mix released in the early 1970s
In nearly every poll that is the greatest country song and performance ever written
The amount of hit songs he did and the influence he had over music is mind blowing and only in a short period of time. He passed so long ago and there still ahs never been another like Hank, never will be.
Hank Williams Sr. is part of the second generation of country music that really cemented it as a part of our culture. If you want to see the genres origins the big 3 to check out are the Carter Family, Jimmie Rodgers, & Woody Guthrie
My father passed away last March. We played this at his funeral because it was his favorite. And it makes my heart so sad but it also makes me remember my Dad’s amazing taste in music. I’ve been playing the piano since I was 6, my brother plays the guitar, my parents both played the guitar and piano and we sang together a lot. All kinds of music. My parents are first gen Italian but we all just loved music. On farher’s day this year my brother and I went up to the cemetery and he played the guitar and we sang a few songs to our Daddy.
As far as recording, they usually played live in the studio and picked the best take. The Library of congress sent out a car and two men with a reel to reel recorder and a single unidirectional microphone to travel the south in maybe in the 30's they would literally drive to the fields an record bluesmen because the LOC believed that this music and its players were a dying art and wanted to record them for documentation's sake. I know A LOT about real blues and country so trust me on this stuff ya'll. Thank you both for reminding us we are truly blessed. As an aside, I really do try every day to take time and listen to people and I love when I can make them smile and hear their stories.
Hank Williams recorded virtually all of his songs at radio stations in Cincinnati, Ohio and Nashville, Tennessee. They had good facilities to make pre-recorded commercials on audiotape. Also, in the years before television became the dominant form of media, radio stations would have music programs, where music artists and bands would perform live in the radio studio, so the radio stations had to have good microphone systems so the music artists and bands could be heard by radio listeners.
Hank Williams, Sr. had a couple of local radio shows of his own, with his best one being “Mother’s Best Flour” radio show, which was pre-recorded with his recording studio band weeks in advance, and broadcast on 650 WSM Nashville, Tennessee at around 5:30 AM on weekday mornings.
Those recorded broadcasts were tied up in courts for years, but in the 2010s, the Williams Estate won the rights to the broadcasts, and CDs and CD box sets of the “Mother’s Best Flour” broadcasts were finally available for sale. Some of the music performances were released as “Hank Williams: The Unreleased Recordings”, as most of the music performances were never recorded during recording sessions during Hank Williams, Sr.’s lifetime.
This was one of my favourite songs back when I could barely remember. This was a staple on our AM radio back in the day, almost 2 decades after it was released.
I was born in 1958 and remember hearing so many Hank Williams songs as a small boy on the local country station. This was one of them, along with "Your Cheatin' Heart," "I Saw The Light" and a horde of others. He died back around 1952 or so but people loved his songs and country music in general on the Canadian prairies. My dad hated Elvis Presley and rock and roll in general, (and you did not want to get him going on The Beatles!), but my mom liked Elvis though she was afraid to let my dad know. She told me that about the year 2000 and you could have pushed me over with a feather, I was so astonished. She never let on, though my sisters bought a few Elvis LPs like "Girls, Girls, Girls!" as early as 1962. I remember "Return To Sender" like it was yesterday. Anyway, a trip down memory lane for me and many others I have no doubt. Thank you Rob and Amber! 👌😉💖
Hank is in my blood. Always will be. My father had old 78 lps we used to play of ole Hank. Then my Dad got with his brothers and formed a country band that frequented the area venues back in the late 60's and early 70's. All they played were the classics...Hank, Merle, Conway, Porter, and I could go on. I'm 65 now and still feel those times every time I hear any of those songs today. But, may I add, I also love classic rock, heavy metal, grunge, alternative, 80's, and more!
One plus of the recording equipment of that time was that the electronics were tube based which offered a warmer sound than modern digital recordings. That's also why a lot of folks build or buy tube amplifiers for their modern stereo systems. Hank Sr. was a musical genius. He once wrote a hit song given the subject and parameters of the song by Acuff & Rose of the Grand Ole Opry as they went to lunch. When they got back from lunch, Hank had written his hit "I Can't Help It If I'm Still In Love With You."
I'm 20 soon to be 21 I prefer tube equipment
If you want to see how they did things ing the studio back in the day, go tour Sun Studios in Memphis. Elvis, Johnny Cash, and many others, including U2 in later years, recorded there. The tour is really great.
I love Hank preforming I saw the light
He gets to the heart of it at the end. "And as I wonder where you are." Devastating close.
Brings back memories of my childhood in the 1950's here in West Virginia listening to the WWVA Jambpree on Saturday nights in Wheeling WV .
I need to go buy a guitar in case of an emp.
Can you imagine life without interruption?
No tv, no internet, no sounds except the lonesome sound of the whippoorwill coming to tell me we're once again back home.
Some of the greatest lyrics ever written! Dozens of his songs have been re recordered/covered hundreds of times. Really could have discussed the lyrics some more.
Such a haunting voice and tragic story 💔
What made him so great was the talent to paint the listener a picture with his lyrics like no one else then and very few since then.
Classic country song! Covered by many artists and charted by Johnny Tillotson, B.J. Thomas and even Terry Bradshaw! (yes, the NFL quarterback)
Awesome! Probably first heard this when I was in a baby crib. Really nice to hear it today.
There was a great triple LP record made in the 1970s that brought old school country to the ears of millions of young folks who’d missed out on most of it. It’s called “Will the Circle Be. Unbroken” It featured many old timers playing country and bluegrass classics along with a young country/rock band that really admired and honored them-The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Check it out someday -some day when you’re on vacation, preferably in a cabin in the woods and it’s raining all day so you’re stuck inside by a fireplace. You will fall in love with it, and all the musicians it featured. An American Classic.
In the 60s, my dad would wander around the house singing this..makes me happy...dad's been gone for 32 years
It's poetry. Then you got that lonesome sounding voice. Then that beautiful, mysterious steel guitar. Just...mmmm....what a song.
My dad had an album of his and he played it all the time. Dad’s gone now but it brings back memories of him going in his room and playing the guitar and singing this. Thank you.😢
Love you guys, love it that you are willing to listen to such old songs with an open mind. On a funny side note, there were 534 likes when i started to watch this now there are 688! You are making a difference!!
And now there are 994 😊
@@KimNevelzer They deserve it!!!

This is probably my favorite classic country heartbreak songs. Hank Williams Sr is considered the Godfather of Country music for good reason, and his mournful voice was a big part of that. I've got that iconic pedal steel solo way down deep in my soul.
The man playing the steel guitar was Don Helms, He played the same steel guitar on ten of the eleven hits hank had.. Watch Charley Pride and Don helms Your Cheating heart. Charlie made the 54th member of the Country Hall of Fame he play with , on stage , record and on the Grand Olde Opry. You have to watch Hank Jr and Hank Sr in Hank Williams Jr Tear in my Beer Official Music Video.
Ahhh - I knew you'd hit this one eventually. Such a classic!
Hi Amber and J. After listening to this song "There is a Tear in My Beer". Hank has so many Great Songs. Here are a couple of my favourite songs to add to your list "I Saw the Light" and "Lost Highway". A couple songs by Hank Jr. are "Hand Me Down" and "Old School ". A favourite song by Holly (daughter of Jr.) is "The Highway".
I actually found a version of " There is a Tear in My Beer" the other day on Spotify that was a duet with Hank Snr and Hank Jnr. Fabulous version.
@@racheltrezise1132If you can find the video with Sr and Jr, that is also amazing.
His career was about 6 years and 70 years later we're still listening to his music
You guys would be surprised at how many covers of this song there have been over the decades both in pop music and country, by some really big named artists including Elvis.
For a newer country song with an older sound, check out Patty Loveless with "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive". One of the best country songs of the last 20 years.
If you guys are going all the way back to the 40's, you have to check out Leadbelly-where'd you sleep lastnight ♡♡
Yes, and then the Nirvana unplugged version!
