This is exactly how you keep his memory alive. Shoutout to Ned and family for allowing things like this to happen and for following in Chris' footsteps.
I lack the vocabulary to explain how seeing this makes me feel. Chris’ music and especially this song has been such an important part of my life for many years. Chris died March 9th 2005 & on March 13th 2005 I was severely injured in a bull riding accident that ended my non-illustrious rodeo career, that was a bad week to say the least. To see this song come to life in this video the way it has been done is so much better than I ever could have imagined. To see Ned in this video is such a blessing to my heart, and the man that plays the main character and the bikers did an outstanding job. Seeing this brought tears to my eyes. Thank you to everyone who had a hand in bringing my all time favorite song to life in a way that highly honors the musical hero of myself and countless others. Seeing is a tremendous blessing to me.
From growing up living and working ranches, riding bulls and broncs. To being grown and being a 1%er, I know exactly what that hat, and that cut meant. This is my all time favorite song. God bless Chris Ledoux
@@wanderinggrizzly7434 Bless your heart. Bikers are some of the most kind and generous people I know. It takes skill to ride both sides of the fence. ❤️
Grew up listening to Chris Ledoux and Marty Robbins every night with my dad. He would put it on when everyone went to sleep. I swear I fell asleep to these guys for 3 years straight. Couldn't forget the words to the songs if I tried.
Oh man. I can’t even begin to tell you how many times as a kid this song was played in the pickup. Long live Chris Ledoux, one of the best singing storytellers to do It.
This is the best rendition of this song. This video is the most accurate portrait of the story. I am a city boy, my parents were appilation country folk. I'm a veteran, construction worker, I've worked in factories, the only thing I have not been is in the food service industry. Never been a biker, what they started out as I would have loved, what they became I don't want to be. Freedom of the road, freedom of the open range, are the flip side of the same coin. It is the truest form of true American freedom.
It was awesome Garth gave him the shout-out. I remember back in 80s in high school. We could buy Chris LeDoux cassettes at the local clothes store. We'd listen to those non stop going to rodeos or any place else we would go as a group. My heart still hurts every time I hear one of his songs. Thanks Ned for picking up the guitar and carrying on.
If there's ever truly been a living legend then before this man passed away he joined that elite club way before his days we're done!! You left one hell of o mark Chris and the wisdom you had about LIFE is and was such a blessing to each and everyone of us that listen to your music! Rip you're missed more than you know
I grew up with this my dad was a bullrider and I've followed his footsteps. But, this song would always play in my head when I was in high school. I went to a big city school and I was the only true cowboy one there. The best part was when someone tried to make fun of me. I just told them to look up this song. To this day, I stand for what Chris ledoux has given us, and god bless this Legend.
I was at a concert at the Cheyenne Frontier Days and I will never forget him, he is the real deal and people like Chris don't come by very often. You should be proud of your dad and we will never forget Chris LeDoux ❤! That was one of my favorite songs of his and I have the whole set and thanks for sharing with us all and keep up the great work!
1994 I had the privilege of seeing Chris Ledoux at Ghost Riders in Butler, Pennsylvania. First concert ever. Made me a life long Chris Ledoux fan right there. Love his music. Great video.
I met Chris some years back at the state fair in Pueblo, Colorado and he was a modest, down to earth guy and an absolute joy to chat with. We saw him a couple more times through the years when he'd come through town and he never disappointed us. When he passed, it was like losing a friend. His music really speaks to the heart and helps you see things a lot more simply.
This video is almost exactly how I pictured the story in my mind as a young kid listening to this song. Makes me tear up. Great job, Ned. Your Dad would be proud.
God Bless Chris LeDoux. Your music will live on forever. A Legend of country music/story telling. Truly one of a kind. Rest in Peace Chris. We still love you.
I had the rare opportunity to sing this song with cowboy Paul R.I.P that was this song was written about, he was Chris's right hand man on all his music career and rodeo, i know Paul and Chris are the honky tonk looking down on us, long live cowboys, miss you guys
I have just barely heard this song for the first time last night. Immediately able to notice that Chris is a true Cowboy who makes true Country Music, the old honky tonk stuff my Dad rode to. Loved the song, a throwback to Waylon Jennings and the Highway Men (my Dad was best friends with Johnny Cash's 1st cousin by the way). So today this new music video drops and I click it, only to be shocked to read in the comments that Chris LeDoux is dead??! How truly sad.. I just learned about him yesterday and he was already a brother.. My Dad's dead too. We'll see them in the resurrection that the Bible talks about in Acts 24:15, if we live good enough to make there ourselves.. tip my hat to you LeBoux.. you made a classic song. Thanks bud, won't forget you.
You will never be good enough to get to heaven buddy. The Bible says for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, but John 14:6 tells us about the Way to get there and that is through the work that Jesus did on the cross for us. Jesus said if we don’t repent we will all perish but we must believe in our hearts and confess with our mouth that He is Lord and then we will be saved. Hope this message finds its way to you.
@@justincrow9113 You are right, paradise cannot be earned- it is a gift. But we can't get there by being wicked. You're to be commended for studying the Bible man. "The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it." - Psalms 37:29. You're on the right track, keep it up.
God only made one Chris LaDoux and he is truly missed. I was blessed enough to see him at Billy Bob's. He was the REAL DEAL. His song LOOK AT YOU GIRL was played at my wedding 27 years ago. Great video and I'm sure he would be pleased
Chris Ledoux was an American Treasure and an Honest to God, Cowboy. When he left us, he left a Music Catalog that is hard to beat. Chris was Just What He was, and his music is the same way. Back 50+ years Ago, during my "Misspent Youth" I rode a whole lot of lonely roads, chasing Rodeos, and Rough Stock Riding Jobs, with only Chris and his music to keep me Company. It was Damn Good Company Now that I'm Old, and listen to Chris singing one of his songs, my minds eye travels down those lonely old roads all over again. I'll never go back there, but Chris and his music can get me right back there, any time I feel like going. Thanks for the Memories and the Music, Chris
Truly miss your dad, Saw him in concert at the Colorado State fair been a fan for 40years! My wife meet him once in Rawlins Wy. We are both huge fans and have shared him with kids, grand kids.!
This is the best song and video that shows society, the press that life is not that difficult to navigate. Respect speaks volumes without hearing a sound.
chris ledoux died a year after i was born, but i miss him and wish i could have seen him play. but this song is my favorite and sends a clear message all these years later. you want my hat? my guns? my silverado? COME AND TAKE IT rest in peace cowboy.
This song represents a peaceful man who can navigate a tough situation by being real, relating to others, and giving others chances to change their ways. Not whatever the fuck you're talking about.
I'm from the Netherlands and I love almost everything that has to do with Westerns, Spaghetti Westerns and Country music. The music is generally great, country singers generally have great voices. The storylines are good, so good in fact that you could easily turn them into a feature film. This clip is amazing. "Don't touch my hat or hell will break open." Rip from Yellowstone would love this.
Chris is hands down one the greatest of all time. This song is hands down my favorite. My grandpa Mike was the one that first introduced me to Chris music back in the 90s when I was about 5. I have always loved his music. I remember lisin to Chris while on a tractor or now while on my phone while on a horse check cattle. I wish Chris still grace this earth I could only imagine what he would be writing and singing about.
How do I go about doing that? I have proof with my assessment. A long history, it's in my genetics, and I honestly think there's only one way out of this predicament. I didn't drink the first 20 years of my life, but the past 20 have been an absolute shit show. I'm not proud of that I just would like an alternative..
Some of my fondest memories is seeing your dad in concert in Indiana a couple times but my favorite shows were at the Calffry in Stillwater at the Tumbleweed. Thank you Ned for keeping his memory alive in all of us and for honoring him and his music the way you do.
I grew up as a teenager raising horses ,and the time spent with them the hat the saddle the different ones I had gave me memories joyous memories that are still with me today at 72 Would go back there in a flash if I could I absolutely love this song God bless Chris LeDoux You truly live on
I had the pleasure of working on this music video. A great cast/great team and a fun shoot in a 114 degree heat. Ned and Lane were so cool and easy going. Great to see it published! 🎉
Thank you Ned for continuing your father’s legacy. Although I never got to meet him in person, I have spoken to him on the phone and he did take a pinch from a can of Cope I tossed up on the stage. My aunt rode with him back at CU and her best friend is Lynn Harlan. I’ve been listening to his music for 50 years and to my aunt’s stories about Peggy, Donny Mape, Gary Lohse, John Ed and the rest. More than any man (short of Jesus) your father, through his music, taught me what real manhood means. Thanks again.
I saw Chris in Concert at the Mississippi Valley Fair years ago in Davenport Iowa. He played this song 8 second Ride and a few other hits 🎯. He was one of my favorites. I unexpectedly came across this video last night o actually got emotional and Cried. Ive had bad fortune lately and this was an unexpected surprise. Thank you Ned and it was an amazing tribute to your Dad Chris Ledoux
Dang, I must have missed that. I'm from Davenport. I never knew he was at the MVF. I've been here all but a couple years of my life and usually go to the fair. Thanks for sharing.
Saw Chris perform at our county fair on a small stage in 1999, that you didn’t have to pay to see. He performed like he was at a sold out arena. Pyrotechnics, mechanical bull, jumping around like he was a kid! Fantastic performer!
Some say Kris can’t sing but he delivers from the writer’s perspective so you get the pace, feeling & emotion. He’s written so many songs for so many artists. He’s a master & a maestro.
Love it I used to listen to this growing up with my dad going to his rodeos and Chris ledoux is my all time favorite country artist to this day. Thanks for the visual. Good job Ned
I can't really find the words to describe what Chris LeDoux and his songs mean to me. Coming from Wyoming, I of course grew up to his music. He's such a huge part of our state culture. But it's so much more than that to me. My grandfather loved Chris LeDoux. And I didn't get the opportunity to really connect with my grandfather due to choices he made. But one of the few things we could connect through was Chris LeDoux's music. His cover of "God must be a cowboy" was played at my grandfather's memorial in February. Whenever I hear Chris LeDoux, I think of my grandfather, and am so thankful that I can at least have that memory with my grandfathers. My dad also met Chris LeDoux twice. Once in the mid 70s when he was a kid, and then again when he was an adult in the mid 90s. Both times, Chris LeDoux said the same thing to him. My dad figures that LeDoux must have recognized him all those years later.
Years ago, Chris came to the Black Hills of South Dakota, I was living there at the time and I got to see his show when he stopped in Keystone. It was a great display of Western Cowboy music! Glad I was able to be there! Chris LeDoux was the real deal....Kaycee's finest! Great man....Great song!
This is exactly how you keep his memory alive. Shoutout to Ned and family for allowing things like this to happen and for following in Chris' footsteps.

Garth Brooks said he stole Chris Ledoux’s act and owes everything to him. Chris Ledoux was the real deal and is a Western legend.
Brooks did steal elements of Ledoux's stage act, but when Garth made it big the Ledoux name drop is what catapulted Ledoux into mainstream
To bad Garth is not even close to that anymore.
@@brettraglin8939Garth Brooks supports Biden!
@@jimmycline4778 what does Biden have to do with Garth Brooks bringing Chris Ledoux to mainstream radio
It has nothing to do to do wit it. I just think him and Chris wouldn’t see eye to eye anymore. They may not have then. But the show went on.
Was serving in the Navy in 1991, listening to Chris Ledoux.
We really needed this today, a sad day in America.
thanks boss
I was in the corps in 93. Listening to Chris .
Thank you for defending me and mines freedoms.
Don't ever forget there are millions like me who appreciate you more than you will ever know.
Thank you guys for your service and may God bless y'all
Absolutely perfect!!❤❤ The absolute best tribute to Chris Ledux ❤ Ned Ledux u r an Awesome Son!! God Bless!! RIP Cris Ledux ❤
If you don’t get chills while listening to this song then you ain’t really listening
Can’t remember when i first heard this song but it was a long time ago yes I still get chills sometimes a little emotional rip Chris ❤

Chris Ledoux is a Country Music Legend!!❤❤Wonderful Video & Song!😊
So glad this song got the platinum title it deserved!!! It’s ashame he can’t be here to celebrate it.
Got me cutting onions over here! Miss Chris's music and his stage presence! Great job to Ned and his team!!!
Oh man. I can’t even begin to tell you how many times as a kid this song was played in the pickup. Long live Chris Ledoux, one of the best singing storytellers to do
It.

Love it I used to listen to this growing up with my dad going to his rodeos and Chris ledoux is my all time favorite country artist to this day. Thanks for the visual. Good job Ned
I can't really find the words to describe what Chris LeDoux and his songs mean to me. Coming from Wyoming, I of course grew up to his music. He's such a huge part of our state culture. But it's so much more than that to me. My grandfather loved Chris LeDoux. And I didn't get the opportunity to really connect with my grandfather due to choices he made. But one of the few things we could connect through was Chris LeDoux's music. His cover of "God must be a cowboy" was played at my grandfather's memorial in February. Whenever I hear Chris LeDoux, I think of my grandfather, and am so thankful that I can at least have that memory with my grandfathers.
My dad also met Chris LeDoux twice. Once in the mid 70s when he was a kid, and then again when he was an adult in the mid 90s. Both times, Chris LeDoux said the same thing to him. My dad figures that LeDoux must have recognized him all those years later.
Years ago, Chris came to the Black Hills of South Dakota, I was living there at the time and I got to see his show when he stopped in Keystone. It was a great display of Western Cowboy music! Glad I was able to be there! Chris LeDoux was the real deal....Kaycee's finest! Great man....Great song!
Cowboy hat is a great reminder of simple values and honor and strength and not taking no guff ❤❤❤❤ miss you Chris
The "you'll have to fight us all" part...still got chills.
Love it!! I was blessed to get to see Chris 2x. Wow, what an awesome entertainer...and even more awesome person. Sure do miss you Chris. 😢💔❤️🙏🤠🏞
