There is no way you could ever find another voice than John Anderson to back this up. The Bellamy brothers are still at the top of their game and so is John Anderson.
You're so right. I learned to two-step to Bellamy's "old Hippie." Both John Anderson and The Bellamy Bros. had a bunch of hits out at the time. Wore the soles out in my boots several times dancing to all that good music. I miss it!!! This new stuff ain't made for dancing.
Been 30 years since the Belemys and Anderson were relevant. Gotta remember Merle Haggard wasn't country enough at one point that's why he was part of the Bakersfield sound.
Yeah, not only is the difference in the soul of music sad, but the different mindset of the entertainers is quite sad too. Country music today has gone way too liberal hollywood. More concerned about getting invited to the "elite" awards shows than sticking to their country roots. There is country music for old men, but it has to be retrieved from the past.
@@davidmalone3317 Whats up? Just givin a few of my thoughts on today's "country". I like some of todays music ok but most of it aint country. I call it hybrid music. Combination of a little country, little rock, little pop, little rap, an occasional sliver of bluegrass, all while drivin the tractor down the old dirt road, headed to the party in the corn field to sing with a very exaggerated country twang to the voice. If i was 20 this might sound better. Im 60 so old school is a bit more my flavor.
For sure!! Still a couple of good ole “Dinosaur’s” out there..Bocephus is still in the game, Willie and Kris Kristofferson..but they are getting rare 💔

Brian, hace como 3 años descubrí esta canción y me fascina: las voces la melodía y el ritmo- sobre tu deseo de quien leyese tu comentario, solo me hace falta salud, amor. A mi edad no necesito éxito y felicidad ya disfruto de ella pues estoy contento con mis hijos y nietos y cuando puedo mi asistencia a los conciertos de tributo a el rey ELVIS. te comento que tengo una foto con James Burton.
My pocket radio stuck on FM so I tuned in an old country station, for over a hour I thought I was listening to the same man or group, I found out every one in so called country sound the same today.No more Mel,Johnny, George, Don, or Charlie who had their on style, and back up.
I'm telling you whoever set this song up with John Anderson singing inThe back end of this was absolutely a genius. This caught me by surprise and literally tears filled my eyes when John Anderson started singing... because it reminded me of what country used to be. Great job guys. Great job

Jacob, so glad to read your comment! There is a ton of excellent traditional country music out there waiting for you.

We grew up with music playing in our home, it has stayed with me and I couldn't imagine not having it.

Again, I'd be glad to pass on some names for you to check out. Have fun on your search!
Keep digging. I am one of those old timers. There was authenticity and uniqueness back then. You could relate to the songs and you could tell who was singing without being told because they didn’t all sound alike. You have a wonderful journey of musical discovery ahead of you. Enjoy. Also, Ireland has some great traditional country singers. Try Eamon McCann's When You Come To Land. Derek Ryan's Gods Plan and Made of Gold. Daniel O'Donnell Welcome Home and Forty Shades of Green and The Last Waltz Of The Evening.
Truly spectacular....these gentlemen - all three of 'em - have not lost their magic as the decades have rolled past....what a beautiful, nostalgic walk through history.....

I'm only 17 and I would take these guys over the new country music any day. The bellamy brothers, alabama, alan jackson, george strait and the oakridge boys are my favorite.
*As a country musician, I grew up on these songs and artists. This music was from a better time in life. Not many songs today can compare. REAL COUNTRY.!!!!!!! YA GOTTA LOVE IT💖🔥💖*
I'm 38, and hate modern country. It's not even country. I grew up listening to real country. You can tell some of these new singers could play it, but obviously the producers would rather destroy country music. It reminds me of the politicians.
I’m 24 and I grew up on the old stuff but Josh Turner is one of the few modern singers I love. Especially his album “country state of mind” but otherwise I grew up on Hank Sr and Johnny Horton
@@Barrett-tq7pq I'm glad there are some people my age group that loves real country music I too am a HUGE Luke The Drifter (Hank Williams) fan and I love Johnny Horton's music too
Love the Bellamy Brothers.. im 59 now.. retired.. i grew up in a very small town in Georgia.. one traffic light.. although it is known around the World for F.D.R. .. There is a Beautiful lady that i grew up with in town.. she is in Florida now.. married David & Howards 1st Cousin.. Her & her Husband manage Harolds cattle ranch & his herd of bout 200 head .. This is probably my most favorite Bellamy tune.. i grew up listening to Honky Tonk Country music.. it will never grow old with me.. you truly have to appreciate REAL Country music.. Pedal Steel guitars, twin fiddles.. aint nothing like it!!.. what is played on a radio today or is called "country" music.. well, it just isnt.. there are young guys out there keeping Country music true to its roots.. ya just have to find them.. yall give Jason James a listen on RUclips.. "Ive been drinking more since you've been loving me less" 😊
Randy Rogers Band, Wade Bowen, Lukas Nelson, look for them on the Texas Red Dirt Road , Texas Troubadours, Marty Stuart buy their music, support them, listen and you will know they write and play
The Bellamy Brothers and John Anderson are past due for induction in the Country Music Hall of Fame! But as long as we have them we still have country music by real men!
Ich habe die Bellamy Brothers erst mals noch zu tiefen DDR Zeiten gesehen und gehört, ich habe mich sofort in die Stimmen verliebt und daran hat sich nichts geändert. Sie sind fantastisch und dieses Lied geht mir ans Herz. Ich sage Danke den Brüdern und den vielen Country Legenden. Grüße aus Germany. Habe euch in Salzburg besucht, ein tolles Konzert habt ihr da gespielt und toll das ich euch noch mal wieder sehen durfte.
Being an old man , this beautiful song makes me cry. The words make me remember all this again & I know in my heart that my race is almost run. My songwriting is almost done & my Steel Guitar days are silent. I'll go to my grave listening to George, George, Alan, The Bellamy Bros & other's like John Anderson & Conway. This sweet music will carry me to heaven with sweet sorrow....
As another "old guy", I'm right there with you my friend. God bless the real, old country and western singers, musicians and songwriters such as yourself. Hang in there and know that talent and the contributions made to our musical heritage from these past performers and from fine folks such as yourself, will always stay in our memories and will always remain in our hearts.
Please take me back. The best era, the best times, Growing up in the 70,s and the 80's and the world seemed so idyllic and simple. What I wouldn't give to go back. I look in the rearview mirror. and smile 😁.Forever grateful for growing up when I did. Thete will never be music like this ever again! ❤🙏Thank you for sharing all these memories of old country songs. ❤❤❤
And while standing on his hands in that pool singing he would still have plenty of time to stake some greasy b.b.s from a kids red rider while still sounding better then these new want to be country talking on stage people I don't know what they call it but sure as hell ain't country singing and country music to .me
I played COUNTRY music for 30 years out there. I even opened for you guys twice here in El Paso TX. Ive been preaching this to everybody how the GREAT country music is still alive but these kids now adays are doing their damndest to ruin it. GREAT song brothers! Thanks - Herb Walker - El Paso TX.
Hello Ed, how are you doing. I hope you are safe and well. I'm Patti from California, looking for new friend and i saw your photo here. Please i hope you don't mind.
@The bella My brother Of course I love old music. I'm open for contacting though. It's late and I've had a few so my grammer ain't much but if you write music I have a couple of things I wrote if you're interested
So sad we have lost the oldtime, awesome, country music with soul, meaning, relevance to life, its truth, issues, challenges Keep up the race guys, there,s still a audience, supporters, listeners so keep producing & airing 😊😊
My top 5. #1. Dirt track stock car races at County Fairs. #2. Country bars with quarter beers, pretty girls, and juke boxes stacked with Charlie Pride, Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins ,ad infinitum. #3. Country roads with a small diary farm every half mile, now given over to corporate farms and all that entails. #4. Straight up people who looked you in the eye when talking and expected the same back. I don't care if they were parents, preachers, bankers or teachers. That's just the way it was done. #5. Climbing into vehicle and not having it critique your seat belt use, lane position, or a myriad of other distance parameters! Hello! Give me a freakin' break!! Really just gettin' warmed up here but I promised 5 and 5 only. Stand your ground America. Make Orwell fiction again!
If you save the video to your phone you can keep it I would guess as long as you have the phone. I have done that with this song because I'm an 'old' country music fan who just turned 70 on February 6th.
@@lisaannkeith7399 ya beat me to that 70 YO Threshold Dear! May 7th for yours truly! I'm still kicking out the jambs, albeit at a slightly reduced rate.
im 73 and have only listen to real country music since I was twelve. back in the 60' seen Jonny Cash, Wallen, Statler Bros., Roy Clark, in concert and others as teenager.
Great new song from three great legendary artists! Unfortunately, there is also no country for 30 somethings like me who grew up on the good ol’ 80’s and 90’s country, unless you look past radio and the mainstream. Love me some 50’s and 60’s country, as well!
Hey, what about the 70's, Waylon, Willie, Kristofferson, Jerry Jeff Walker, and David Allan Coe. And yes i really like 60's country more than ever before. oh yes , and Hank Jr. And ol' Haggard was relevant from when I was a Kid till the day he passed.
Go listen to KHYI 95.3 The Range out of Dallas. They have an app to listen online. They play the classics but they play Texas/ Oklahoma country music. NO pop country. Some of it is more Americana but it's all real music. Lots of great artists, singer/ songwriters who aren't over produced. Look up Cody Jinks, Ward Davis, Whitey Morgan, Uncle Lucius, Zane Williams (Wilder Blue), Jason Boland, Turnpike Troubadours. That'll get you started.
@@rockinredneck57 Thanks for the recommendation and the list of artists! I'll definitely be sure to check 'em out. I have heard some of Jason Boland's music and really like what I heard from him.
That's what REAL country is all about. I'm old too and I miss the emotion and soul in a country song. Thank you Howard, David, and John for this. And that's the TRUTH.
That one hit me in the heart. Why can't the radio giants give us old timer's a oldies station in every metro area. At least we would have an option, as opposed to country rap or CRAP !!
If your ever traveling somewhere between the twin cities and St.Cloud Minnesota listen to FM 106.1. They play all the good older country music all day.
My husband and I have been fans of yours for, well, it seems like forever. Probably more like 40 years. You never disappoint and make some of the best music I've ever heard. Still love you guys!
Singers worldwide, they don't come any better than these artists... I'm grateful to have experienced true artists in my time as we are seeing now, Waylon, Willie, George, Conway, Elvis,
As much as so many Old Time Country Folks hate what Country has evolved into . Nashville will continue to cater to 16 to 24 year old girls . This song simply reminds us of what was . Sad really .
It’s the USA that’s “dead and gone”. But country music is immortal. It’s just been “canceled” by the same sociopolitical disease that has beaten the USA unconscious. If this country survives this Marxist coup country music will come back like daffodils in April. Country music is alive and well in the hearts and minds of every true blue American.... and at least we’re not “dead and gone” friend.... at least not yet. Screw em.... I’m still listening to it and I’m still writing it.... trying to anyway. Hang in there y’all and stay strong. This too will pass. The sky’s still blue, grass is still green, and ya just can’t kill “three chords and the truth”! The kids will get sick of all that crap eventually. If not screw em. Who cares? They can drown themselves for all I care. Their loss. I’d say what we really have here is just another case of the tail wagging the dog. It’s besieged our entire culture.
What a great song. Made me cry. The brothers singing the truth. Posers n wanna be outlaws. With the legend John Anderson this song should be played on today's country stations but not. The truth hurts
I'm glad I was born when country was cool .I miss the good old fashioned western music .To hear this song as well as old time memories makes me emotional. I love it .Thank you to all who keep it alive .❤
I'm a teenager and I still realize what the Bellamy Brothers are saying. New "country" music is definitely not as good as old music someone finally had the courage to say it in a REAL country song.
Your so right! Take that sinkin' feeling in your gut and do what i do with it Krista :) What i do is i go out and play these songs to keep them alive. Real country won't die if we are on the frontlines fighting for it. God Bless You
Congratulations guys...I love the respect for the greats and you couldn't have picked a better artist than John Anderson to perform this song with. John is the most underrated country singer of the past 40 yrs
John Anderson is the only one i have ever went to see that sounded in person exactly as he sounded on recording. I saw him at Billy Bobs in Ft. Worth. He was promoting his Seminole Wind Album in which every song on it is pure Country Gold. Great Job Belamy's that should be a # 1 hit on all billboards. Makes my old heart feel good.
None of today's country singer's could tote these guy's baggage, Glad to see them paying respect to the older guys, great song, John has the best voice
I really feel sorry for the younger generation that will never know the pride we took in ourselves and our country. They have no idea what they missed.
Man they can still sing as good as ever. These Guys are some of the greatest ever. Would love to see them make a album together.. OOPs they don't call them albums anymore. I suppose I should say a CD.
Oh yes. . So many more legends in the Stars.. Roy Acuff, jim Ed Brown, Charley Pride, Boxcar Willie, Johnny Cash, waylon J, buck Owen's, George jones, charley pride, Al Green , Ed Bruce, mike Davies, k Roger's, oh so sad too knowing the list doesnt end, ,little Jimmie dickens, ...........
I`m living in germany. My very first big motorbike-trip took to to the US. It was back in 1999. Riding my rented Harley on my way to Nashville. Met a girl who was fully dressed in snake-leather clothes on her bike. She took me home (here house and garden was full of snakes!) Next morning she gifted me a CD. John Anderson, greatest hits. Hope you are doing well, Lady Harley and thanks for the great time we had.
Yeah they sound so good my friend Randy and i pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, I'm Roy from Happy camp California. Where are you from ?
The voices are perfect, gave me chills to hear everyone again. The point of the song is perfect, those were the days. Country music lost it's country a long time ago when it went to country rap "crap" and then every tune sounding the same. Country today doesn't represent real country people it represents GQ men who try to act country, I stopped listen towards the end of the 90's and only listen to 1960's - 1990's. Thanks ya'll for bringing back real country music. Same thing with everyone buying up pickups for a status symbol, I am a woman who uses mine, but the prices are through the roof because of posers who wouldn't know what physical work is.
Agreed. I've always said that good country music ended in the late 90s. There are some exceptions like Brad Paisley who have kept it going but for the most part...it is all crap.
Amen, I didn't even know John Anderson I haven't seen him in so long but then I'm not as young as I was when I saw him in a great concert in Apopka, God bless you all and keep making music for us old men
I'm 58, luckily there's Spotify so I can choose older music to play, cause I can't stand what's on the radio. The Bellamys have always been at the top of my list, they are the only ones still playing it the old way....all I can say is, Thank you. Appreciate all yall do. We may be old but we are still here.
That's funny, because I played it for a friend on Christmas morning . He texted me in the middle of the night and said he couldn't stop listening to it.

I'm gonna be 28, and I can't stand the new noise. I hope I can be found and bring the Honky Tonk sound back to today's country
Gotta find those independent artist that aren't forced to change
I’m 24 and I grew up on the old stuff but Josh Turner is one of the few modern singers I love. Especially his album “country state of mind” but otherwise I grew up on Hank Sr and Johnny Horton
@@Barrett-tq7pq I'm glad there are some people my age group that loves real country music I too am a HUGE Luke The Drifter (Hank Williams) fan and I love Johnny Horton's music too
I love this so much! When I first heard it it reminded me of a cross between "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" and "Murder On Music Row". ❤❤❤
So true
Todays culture has ruined what we all knew as COUNTRY MUSIC.
Kori williard that true, hope you don't mind telling me more about yourself.
Two of my favorites
Not just country music, best rock was 60s and 70s. Crap since then.
Love these guys. Been listening to them for yrs. No country today I like. These guys among others don’t even get radio time anymore. Sad really!
Love the Bellamy Brothers.. im 59 now.. retired.. i grew up in a very small town in Georgia.. one traffic light.. although it is known around the World for F.D.R. .. There is a Beautiful lady that i grew up with in town.. she is in Florida now.. married David & Howards 1st Cousin.. Her & her Husband manage Harolds cattle ranch & his herd of bout 200 head .. This is probably my most favorite Bellamy tune.. i grew up listening to Honky Tonk Country music.. it will never grow old with me.. you truly have to appreciate REAL Country music.. Pedal Steel guitars, twin fiddles.. aint nothing like it!!.. what is played on a radio today or is called "country" music.. well, it just isnt.. there are young guys out there keeping Country music true to its roots.. ya just have to find them.. yall give Jason James a listen on RUclips.. "Ive been drinking more since you've been loving me less" 😊
Hi scuba ❤
I'm 72 and there ain't no country music for old women either. I'm so happy these guys can sing it like it's supposed to be sung.
Great 🥰🥰 song
How're you doing
There ain't no country music for middle aged men either. They got rid of Strait, Yoakam, Jackson, ect. I'm afraid it's gone forever.
Ima young and I'm scared the music I grew up on with my grandparents its fixin to disappear
Yep!...JD is my solice,with the music of GOOD OLE COUNTRY..The World today is GOD DAMN ROOTED!
Randy Rogers Band, Wade Bowen, Lukas Nelson, look for them on the Texas Red Dirt Road , Texas Troubadours, Marty Stuart buy their music, support them, listen and you will know they write and play
Hi don't give up on him boys they're still out there
@@tonyrobb8815 you need to use better language that would help the world a whole lot but I still like it comment except for them to words
There’s no country music artist today that have the talent these guys have.
There ain't no better country music for ole men & no better to sing it & play it. Thank you !
Amen- The fact that this song could get NO radio play today says all that needs to be said about today's so called country music
Hello friend 👋🏻
The Bellamy Brothers and John Anderson are past due for induction in the Country Music Hall of Fame! But as long as we have them we still have country music by real men!
If it ain't said here - so is GENE WATSON!!! What the heck!!!
really
Hear HERE! Thats Danged right Skoal Bandit!
Ich habe die Bellamy Brothers erst mals noch zu tiefen DDR Zeiten gesehen und gehört, ich habe mich sofort in die Stimmen verliebt und daran hat sich nichts geändert. Sie sind fantastisch und dieses Lied geht mir ans Herz. Ich sage Danke den Brüdern und den vielen Country Legenden. Grüße aus Germany. Habe euch in Salzburg besucht, ein tolles Konzert habt ihr da gespielt und toll das ich euch noch mal wieder sehen durfte.
Being an old man , this beautiful song makes me cry. The words make me remember all this again & I know in my heart that my race is almost run. My songwriting is almost done & my Steel Guitar days are silent. I'll go to my grave listening to George, George, Alan, The Bellamy Bros & other's like John Anderson & Conway. This sweet music will carry me to heaven with sweet sorrow....
It sounds like you've had a wonderful life sir, best of wishes for you!
As another "old guy", I'm right there with you my friend. God bless the real, old country and western singers, musicians and songwriters such as yourself. Hang in there and know that talent and the contributions made to our musical heritage from these past performers and from fine folks such as yourself, will always stay in our memories and will always remain in our hearts.
im 78 started lisening to grandold opry wheni was 5 on a radio you had to wait for the tubes to warm up..ill see you there....
At least we were good people and truly loved good times and family whether it be religion or what that seperates from the worst people today.
@@brianblithe2271 YOU'RE RIGHT about good people on the left and what separates us from the worst people today!
Please take me back. The best era, the best times, Growing up in the 70,s and the 80's and the world seemed so idyllic and simple. What I wouldn't give to go back. I look in the rearview mirror. and smile 😁.Forever grateful for growing up when I did. Thete will never be music like this ever again! ❤🙏Thank you for sharing all these memories of old country songs. ❤❤❤
John anderson can stand on his hands upside down in swimming pool and out sing so called modern "country music" singers
And while standing on his hands in that pool singing he would still have plenty of time to stake some greasy b.b.s from a kids red rider while still sounding better then these new want to be country talking on stage people I don't know what they call it but sure as hell ain't country singing and country music to .me
Amen!
You sure have a way with words, can you sing?
@@deni00767 Yes, but I'm no John Anderson lol.
Amen to that!!!
I just turned 55 and this is the kind of music I grew up listening to ! Shit someone hand me a beer!!!!!
Me too. Really miss this kind of music
@@carendroza9794 Thats what my parents said about big band music and Sinatra.Its gone forever. And now we are the dinasaurs.
@Keith ,yes so did mine 😊
Gimme one of those beers too!
@@jasondavid6165 cold cold cold !!!!!!
As a 43 year old I can say I’ve felt this way for over 30 years.
I played COUNTRY music for 30 years out there. I even opened for you guys twice here in El Paso TX. Ive been preaching this to everybody how the GREAT country music is still alive but these kids now adays are doing their damndest to ruin it. GREAT song brothers! Thanks
- Herb Walker - El Paso TX.
I hope the right people are reading and listening to our comments,bring back old country music please🙏
Hello Ed, how are you doing. I hope you are safe and well. I'm Patti from California, looking for new friend and i saw your photo here. Please i hope you don't mind.
Hello mckimmy , Sorry for intruding your privacy hope you don’t mind ?
I'm not even old but it sucks that most of my favorite country singers are dead or retired and Nashville won't let nobody fill their shoes.
@The bella My brother Of course I love old music. I'm open for contacting though. It's late and I've had a few so my grammer ain't much but if you write music I have a couple of things I wrote if you're interested
2023 still listening to real country 👍
Hello how are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
I am still here and always will be.
So sad we have lost the oldtime, awesome, country music with soul, meaning, relevance to life, its truth, issues, challenges
Keep up the race guys, there,s still a audience, supporters, listeners so keep producing & airing 😊😊
❤
Available only as a download. My friends are into downloads and I'm just to freakin' old!! I identify with the Old Hippie even more these days!
Rather than bore y'all with a doctoral thesis on how much I feel our culture has lost in the time I 've been alive. Ill hit
My top 5. #1. Dirt track stock car races at County Fairs.
#2. Country bars with quarter beers, pretty girls, and juke boxes stacked with Charlie Pride, Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins ,ad infinitum.
#3. Country roads with a small diary farm every half mile, now given over to corporate farms and all that entails.
#4. Straight up people who looked you in the eye when talking and expected the same back. I don't care if they were parents, preachers, bankers or teachers. That's just the way it was done.
#5. Climbing into vehicle and not having it critique your seat belt use, lane position, or a myriad of other distance parameters! Hello! Give me a freakin' break!!
Really just gettin' warmed up here but I promised 5 and 5 only.
Stand your ground America. Make Orwell fiction again!
Me too never got a chance (joined Air Force at 18) to be one so I'm reliving it now at 67
If you save the video to your phone you can keep it I would guess as long as you have the phone. I have done that with this song because I'm an 'old' country music fan who just turned 70 on February 6th.
@@lisaannkeith7399 ya beat me to that 70 YO Threshold Dear! May 7th for yours truly! I'm still kicking out the jambs, albeit at a slightly reduced rate.
We old guys have had sixty years of the best of Country music and thanks to technology we will always have them.
im 73 and have only listen to real country music since I was twelve. back in the 60' seen Jonny Cash, Wallen, Statler Bros., Roy Clark, in concert and others as teenager.
I cannot express how much I love this song
Better then anything on the radio today
I heard it for the first time 2 days ago on Sirius/XM's "Willie's Roadhouse". Best I've heard in years!
Who thumbs down this?
You’re right.!
Hello friend 👋🏻
Great new song from three great legendary artists! Unfortunately, there is also no country for 30 somethings like me who grew up on the good ol’ 80’s and 90’s country, unless you look past radio and the mainstream. Love me some 50’s and 60’s country, as well!
Hey, what about the 70's, Waylon, Willie, Kristofferson, Jerry Jeff Walker, and David Allan Coe. And yes i really like 60's country more than ever before. oh yes , and Hank Jr. And ol' Haggard was relevant from when I was a Kid till the day he passed.
Go listen to KHYI 95.3 The Range out of Dallas. They have an app to listen online. They play the classics but they play Texas/ Oklahoma country music. NO pop country. Some of it is more Americana but it's all real music. Lots of great artists, singer/ songwriters who aren't over produced. Look up Cody Jinks, Ward Davis, Whitey Morgan, Uncle Lucius, Zane Williams (Wilder Blue), Jason Boland, Turnpike Troubadours. That'll get you started.
@@rockinredneck57 Thanks for the recommendation and the list of artists! I'll definitely be sure to check 'em out. I have heard some of Jason Boland's music and really like what I heard from him.
That's what REAL country is all about. I'm old too and I miss the emotion and soul in a country song. Thank you Howard, David, and John for this. And that's the TRUTH.
Got goosebumps when john anderson rolled in on that 2nd verse
That one hit me in the heart. Why can't the radio giants give us old timer's a oldies station in every metro area. At least we would have an option, as opposed to country rap or CRAP !!
If your ever traveling somewhere between the twin cities and St.Cloud Minnesota listen to FM 106.1. They play all the good older country music all day.
@@johndeeretractorguy.9855 good to know a family friend lives in St Cloud.
We do need a good
Classic country station. Gainesville, Fl.
@@johndeeretractorguy.9855 I feel spoiled they live just 45 minutes from me 💕
@@dmlkcs8620 bet every-time they play you can hear it for miles around.
Love Bellamy Brothers and John Anderson's songs. Their songs are real country music.
My husband and I have been fans of yours for, well, it seems like forever. Probably more like 40 years. You never disappoint and make some of the best music I've ever heard. Still love you guys!
สนใจ
Singers worldwide, they don't come any better than these artists... I'm grateful to have experienced true artists in my time as we are seeing now, Waylon, Willie, George, Conway, Elvis,
It doesn't get anymore honest than this. Country music is dead and gone.
As much as so many Old Time Country Folks hate what Country has evolved into . Nashville will continue to cater to 16 to 24 year old girls . This song simply reminds us of what was . Sad really .
I've been more into the underground traditional and bluegrass these young guys are bringing back the last fee years they filled the void
It's not gone. You just won't find it on country radio. Guys like Cody Jinks and Ward Davis are KILLING it. Go check them out and tell me I'm wrong.
It’s the USA that’s “dead and gone”. But country music is immortal. It’s just been “canceled” by the same sociopolitical disease that has beaten the USA unconscious. If this country survives this Marxist coup country music will come back like daffodils in April. Country music is alive and well in the hearts and minds of every true blue American.... and at least we’re not “dead and gone” friend.... at least not yet. Screw em.... I’m still listening to it and I’m still writing it.... trying to anyway. Hang in there y’all and stay strong. This too will pass. The sky’s still blue, grass is still green, and ya just can’t kill “three chords and the truth”! The kids will get sick of all that crap eventually. If not screw em. Who cares? They can drown themselves for all I care. Their loss. I’d say what we really have here is just another case of the tail wagging the dog. It’s besieged our entire culture.
I also still listen to it but not on the radio because they don't play it anymore
The comforting sound of the Bellamy Brothers voices! An john anderson.nice to hear them all
Great 🥰🥰 song
How're you doing
What a great song. Made me cry. The brothers singing the truth. Posers n wanna be outlaws. With the legend John Anderson this song should be played on today's country stations but not. The truth hurts
I'm glad I was born when country was cool .I miss the good old fashioned western music .To hear this song as well as old time memories makes me emotional. I love it .Thank you to all who keep it alive .❤
I'm a teenager and I still realize what the Bellamy Brothers are saying. New "country" music is definitely not as good as old music someone finally had the courage to say it in a REAL country song.
You're damn right Krista !
I’m 17 okay? But heres the thing man, there’s a lot of new guys making shit like this, you just gotta look for em, bc they aren’t on radio
And you got Michael Ray and Luke Bryan in a playlist💀. I’m dead
Your so right! Take that sinkin' feeling in your gut and do what i do with it Krista :) What i do is i go out and play these songs to keep them alive. Real country won't die if we are on the frontlines fighting for it. God Bless You
Hello friend 👋🏻 how are you doing?
Congratulations guys...I love the respect for the greats and you couldn't have picked a better artist than John Anderson to perform this song with. John is the most underrated country singer of the past 40 yrs
John Anderson is the only one i have ever went to see that sounded in person exactly as he sounded on recording. I saw him at Billy Bobs in Ft. Worth. He was promoting his Seminole Wind Album in which every song on it is pure Country Gold. Great Job Belamy's that should be a # 1 hit on all billboards. Makes my old heart feel good.
None of today's country singer's could tote these guy's baggage, Glad to see them paying respect to the older guys, great song, John has the best voice
2022.Respect.
Me and my brother have been listening to these boys since the early 70ties such a great duo❤
Love this. I’ve said for years, I miss old country music. Not modern pop country
As a a 78 year old and a fan of country music i absolutely love the song. lyrics music, and steel guitar . Thank you Bellamy brothers.
Obviously, not all have died, or packed it in, you guys sang this. Made me cry. I thank the Lord for classic country radio stations and RUclips.
I really feel sorry for the younger generation that will never know the pride we took in ourselves and our country. They have no idea what they missed.
Man they can still sing as good as ever. These Guys are some of the greatest ever. Would love to see them make a album together.. OOPs they don't call them albums anymore. I suppose I should say a CD.
Yes they do, these guys are old school, album.
I am 81 yrs old and with out country music we might as well not have any music I can’t get enough god bless those who are still singing country😊
Hello brianbell thanks for all the love
Great song gentleman, you speak the truth. Love this and John Anderson.

I`m living in germany. My very first big motorbike-trip took to to the US. It was back in 1999. Riding my rented Harley on my way to Nashville. Met a girl who was fully dressed in snake-leather clothes on her bike. She took me home (here house and garden was full of snakes!) Next morning she gifted me a CD. John Anderson, greatest hits. Hope you are doing well, Lady Harley and thanks for the great time we had.
Bellamy Brothers still have it together Go Boy's....
So good to see some real country music and country singers actually singing real old school country music.
Ok folks.. let's give these guys all the respect they deserve. Who listened to this song, time was turned back for a moment and they told our story.
Me
Awesome song!! So true!! The Bellamy Brothers are just gonna have to keep singing!!!
Hello ginger how are you doing and how do you feel when listen to this beautiful song?
Hello gingerporter we appreciate your love ❤
Amazing

Plenty thanks
For all country music❤❤❤❤
Hey guys..I'm from Fiji, a small country in the Pacific. Now this is real music..#hugefan
Bula bras!!
The brothers are the best concert I’ve ever attended. They sound as good as ever
Yeah they sound so good my friend Randy and i pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, I'm Roy from Happy camp California. Where are you from ?
Hope you don't mind me asking 😊?
Wake up younger generation this is what America grew up on beautiful music
Hi Gary Smith ❤
Damn, these ol boys still got it! Handsome as ever. John Anderson!! I could listen to them all day ever day!
The voices are perfect, gave me chills to hear everyone again. The point of the song is perfect, those were the days. Country music lost it's country a long time ago when it went to country rap "crap" and then every tune sounding the same. Country today doesn't represent real country people it represents GQ men who try to act country, I stopped listen towards the end of the 90's and only listen to 1960's - 1990's. Thanks ya'll for bringing back real country music. Same thing with everyone buying up pickups for a status symbol, I am a woman who uses mine, but the prices are through the roof because of posers who wouldn't know what physical work is.
Agreed. I've always said that good country music ended in the late 90s. There are some exceptions like Brad Paisley who have kept it going but for the most part...it is all crap.
I'm not old. Just old school. Glad these boys are still making music
Amen, I didn't even know John Anderson I haven't seen him in so long but then I'm not as young as I was when I saw him in a great concert in Apopka, God bless you all and keep making music for us old men
I'm 58, luckily there's Spotify so I can choose older music to play, cause I can't stand what's on the radio. The Bellamys have always been at the top of my list, they are the only ones still playing it the old way....all I can say is, Thank you. Appreciate all yall do. We may be old but we are still here.
Sad truth this song. Few true country music singers/band remain even for us younger generations to enjoy:(
Wow! That was great! John Anderson's voice took center stage.
Yh ,I love it
THESE GUYS HAVENT LOST A BEAT..
IVE ALWAYS LOVED THE BELLAMY BROTHERS..
It's christmas morning and that song still sends chills up my spine. Great song
That's funny, because I played it for a friend on Christmas morning . He texted me in the middle of the night and said he couldn't stop listening to it.
I think I’m just an old soul. I’m only 27 but love this song
God bless our old and true country music. Let's us not ever forget our first pioneers who first started tru country music. Thank you all
God do I ever hate the "new country music" that passes for country music now. These men really know how to make music. Love this song.
John Anderson is still a monster. His voice hasnt lost anything.
