I love Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain. My dad would play guitar and sing it all the time when I was younger. When he taught me to play the guitar, that was one of the first songs I learned to play. As I grew older, my musical taste evolved to be more rock centered, but I still love me some Willie. It's just great genuine music.
At 90 years old, Willie is still performing and touring. He’s written hundreds and hundreds of songs and started out writing a number of number one songs for other people.
Willie recorded his version in the early eighties. Among others it had been previously recorded by Brenda Lee and Elvis Wayne Carson, Johnny Christopher and Mark James wrote it.
He performs with his family plus running the Willie's Reserve which sells saliva weed. Look it up, you can order from him too. He's been on Stephen Colbert Show but the interviews are always on his bus. Stephen always comments on the great smell in the bus.
Willie had his 91st birthday yesterday, Apr. 29. And we are all blessed to still be seeing him perform. Just for fun you need to react to Toby Keith and Scott Emerick singing to Willie on his 70th birthday. It's called "I'll Never Smoke Weed with Willie Again."
Willie told this story once: He came home drunk again and his wife at the time was fed up, so she sewed him up in a bed sheet - he said she took her time about it and he was sewed in - then she beat him with a broom. He said he woke up with these white things flying at him hitting him and he had no idea what was going on.
The piano is the late great Sister Bobbie Nelson. Willie said the two of them alone could do a show with no rehearsal, they played music with each other every day of their lives
HA - that's the first thing I said when this video started: BOBBIE!!! ....and, my 22 yr old son said: No, it's not - that's Willie Nelson.... 🙄 RIP, BOBBIE!! PLAY ON, WILLIE!!!
Oh, I love that song, my late brother used to play it for my niece when she was little, she loved it so much. I had the privilege of seeing Willie in concert, he was fantastic!
That is Willie's sister, Bobbie, on the piano. She passed away a year or so ago. This is one of Willie's best. "Blue Eyes Cryin in the Rain" is another. Also, his duet with Loretta Lynn.."Lay Me Down" is wonderful. And, his recording of "Don't Let The Old Man In" written for Clint Eastwood by Toby Keith. Willie has a totally different cadence to his singing than anyone else. He's one of our state treasures.
Willie has a couple of song videos that are pretty good. I will Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again and The World Has Gone to Pot. You should check them out. lol I loved them both. Waylon and him sing these two songs together.
See if you can find the video of Toby Kieth (live version) singing his song "I'll Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again". Willie is on stage with him as he hears the song for the first time. The grin on Willie's face as he's taking in the lyrics is priceless!
Willie is another one of those legends in music. He also is one hell of a song writer. He has wrote over 2,000 songs for everyone from Aretha Franklin to Cake. Some others that he wrote for were Al Green, Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline
Willie is currently on a twenty four date tour at the age of ninety.I'm going to drive from Denver to Lincoln, Nebraska to see him for the first time.He is truly a living legend.
The “hook” in this piece is the song itself, the words, the music and the presentation by Willie Nelson. It’s an honest confession from him to her, quietly, that gets your heart & soul. Some songs don’t need head banging noise! Know what I mean?
"Willie Nelson's range" 😂. My friend, that IS his range and thank God for it. He tells musical stories. As others have said, the man is a musical treasure.
Love Willie’s version. Another beautiful version is the one by Elvis. It brought tears because it was around the time of Elvis’ divorce and you felt the emotion in his voice. Thanks for this great reaction. 👏👏🥰
Saw Willie play two nights ago and he sang this very song, I had to go back and see if you had done a reaction and yes you did. He is 91 years old now and has to sit to play, but he still gots it!!
Willie Nelson, in his younger days, was known as, and is still referred to by the old time country artists and fans, as the Red Headed Stranger. Just a little bit of personal knowledge for you Pegasus. Your friend, the Retired Paramedic in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Willie has such an incredible past, writer, composer and singer, duh. ‘The Red headed stranger’ is an album in itself. You should treat yourself and spend 30 minutes with that masterpiece.
PEGASUS, YOU MUST CHECK HIGHWAYMEN BY THE HIGHWAYMEN! YOU WILL LOVE IT. It's a song by the band Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and Waylon Jennings created in the 80's.
Sometimes less is more. Willie makes you feel this song. He was a fan of Frank Sinatra. Norah Jones is a fan of Willie and carries the influence forward. I think they did a duet once.
My husband passed away, and this song hits home. He was in a veteran's home that was 2 hours away. I should've been there more for him. He had Alzheimers, PTSD, Agent Orange. Now that he's gone, i don't think i did love him enough. He was always on my mind
I think this is a song of reflection. A man realizing how important this special person is to then and how much he took them for granted. We can all relate to this and be grateful to Willie Nelson for saying it so beautifully.
Thats Willie's sister Bobbie playing piano.Willie probably has one of the most distinct guitar sounds. He always said when Trigger goes he'll go. That guitar is still going.
Willie is like someone that makes you feel like he's only singing to you. He has a warm embracing quality to his voice. He is an amazing guitar player so really listen to what he does with it. It is a classical guitar. I have seen him 3 times, not enough but he's on the top of my favorites. We have be blessed to have him this long. Keep going Willie.
Dude, It’s it so amazing how music, instruments, melodies and lyrics put you in your feels?? Willie has always been in my music rotation since the 70’s!!! I’m 59!!!
I remember back in the 80s being a teenager, and my grandma loved Willie. I never really paid attention. Now, I'm 53, and this is actually making me emotional. I totally get what you're saying, BP.
Please, please and again please…more Willie! Ray Charles and Willie collaborated on many songs but the one that really got to me was A Song for you. Ray had just told Willie backstage that he was dying and the song was for their friendship. Not many songs have affected me like that but it was very special. Willie is my spirit-person..I’ll love him always.
My real dad is a huge Willie fan and this song breaks my heart every time I hear it-he and I have a strained relationship and in the last 20 yrs, I have had to realize that, while far from perfect he loves me in his own way even if he hasn’t always been present.
Willie Nelson is the only man on earth that can wear pig tails and still be considered masculine. He wrote some gospel songs that would surprise people to know.
My oldest son is 22 and my mom's favorite talking point about him is how he used to say "meme go one the road again".... Willie was the first musical artist that my son ever kinda quoted lol.
Angel too close to the ground.....Blue Eyes crying in the Rain.... great songs.....Seven Spanish Angels with Wille and Ray Charles you will love his music. you were feeling it
Perfect illustration of when they say, 'less can be more', for sure. He accomplished the same result when a song he wrote called 'Crazy' was taken to the highest level of acceptance in country music by Patsy Cline. Again, simple.....but with penetration to the human soul of monumental proportion.
My Mom's favorite song. I think of her every time I hear this. Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground is a great one. Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys, with Waylon Jennings is another classic.
Hey Black P, you brought up Whitney Houston singing I Will Always Love You. In case you didn't know, Whitney covered that song. It was originally a Dolly Parton song. She wrote and performed that song for Porter Wagoner when she left his TV show.
Love Willie. He has a unique voice and vibe. He's so laid back and casual, but he speaks to you. I can tell by the emotion showing on your face just how deeply this song is hitting you.. Check out Willie and Snoop Dogg together singing..... "Roll Me Up and Smoke Me" Also check out group, *The Highway Men singing "The City of New Orleans". The group includes Willie Nelson (taking the lead on this song) Johnny Cash, Waylan Jennings and Kris Kristofferson there's a mean harmonica all the way through this song.
Look into his IRS Tapes. Gotta love Willie. I always thought it would be the best time to be a fly on the wall back in the day listening to Willie, Waylon, Kris and Johnny hanging out and telling stories. His 4th of July picnic was always one of my mother's favorite things to do in the 70's and 80s. I think he still does it.
It's never too late to tell your wife how soecial she is to you.Women crave words of verbal affirmation,it lights us up! There is a great book called The Five Love Languages,check it out! Love this song so much! So tender...💞🎙🎶
I am so glad you reacted to this song by this totally genuine icon. I cannot imagine another person in the WORLD, who could have such a huge following as a singer, when he sings with such a nasal sound. That is normally not considered to be desirable but somehow Willie became super famous singing like that for decades. There is no pretension in him. He is always himself, no frills, no fuss, just a man with a guitar or harmonica standing on a stage and sharing his music, his heart, and his soul. He is beloved and a national treasure. If you ever get the chance, watch the very last part of his 90th Birthday Tribute that was televised. He got up on stage and performed with a wide variety of artists. You would have especially enjoyed his duet with Snoop Dogg when they sang the classic " Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die" !! How perfect is that !!?? It astonished me how sharp Willie still is. He was just Willie, doing his thing, as if he was in his living room and he knew the words to every song he sang and did not miss a note vocally or on guitar !! I was super-impressed by that. I was fortunate to have seen him live in the 1980's with Waylon Jennings, and it was AN EXPERIENCE AND A HALF !!! He is someone to be remembered. Thank you. This made my day! 😊 🎸🎙🎶🌞❣
I was invited to Laughlin Nevada, Free Tickets to an outdoor small venue concert Saturday night 4/20… Willie Nelson concert got center stage seats about 18 rolls back👍, I’m so glad to have seen him…. There is a FREE RUclips movie called HONEYSUCKLE ROSE 🌹, a 1980 movie starring Willie👍🤗 I also love Elvis singing this song to his wife Priscilla on the music video, love it👍🤗♥️
even though this is a love song it hits home for me tonight. this morning I lost my very first and best friend - we've been friends for 56 years. we lived 5 blocks away and didn't get to get together as much as when we were young, but she was always on my mind. this song means so much now
Willie singing Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain, is my all time favourite ❤️
I love Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain. My dad would play guitar and sing it all the time when I was younger. When he taught me to play the guitar, that was one of the first songs I learned to play. As I grew older, my musical taste evolved to be more rock centered, but I still love me some Willie. It's just great genuine music.
This is the one
Love that song! You got great taste!😊
ANOTHER one of the best songs ever. A little more of a country sound, too. "Always on my Mind" kind of transcends genre.
That and Angel Flying too Close to the Ground
At 90 years old, Willie is still performing and touring. He’s written hundreds and hundreds of songs and started out writing a number of number one songs for other people.
Willy, at 90 just recently got promoted to 5th degree master of one of several martial arts he is also a master of. He really is an amazing human.
Willie recorded his version in the early eighties. Among others it had been previously recorded by Brenda Lee and Elvis
Wayne Carson, Johnny Christopher and Mark James wrote it.
Praying that I can at least just meet him before he goes 🙏 ❤️
He performs with his family plus running the Willie's Reserve which sells saliva weed. Look it up, you can order from him too. He's been on Stephen Colbert Show but the interviews are always on his bus. Stephen always comments on the great smell in the bus.
Willie's phrasing is unique, and wonderful, it's like he's having a conversation with a friend. He's a treasure.
Willie had his 91st birthday yesterday, Apr. 29. And we are all blessed to still be seeing him perform. Just for fun you need to react to Toby Keith and Scott Emerick singing to Willie on his 70th birthday. It's called "I'll Never Smoke Weed with Willie Again."
Yes, good one! Also "Whiskey For My Men, Beer For My Horses" a duet with Toby Keith.
Willie told this story once: He came home drunk again and his wife at the time was fed up, so she sewed him up in a bed sheet - he said she took her time about it and he was sewed in - then she beat him with a broom. He said he woke up with these white things flying at him hitting him and he had no idea what was going on.
The piano is the late great Sister Bobbie Nelson. Willie said the two of them alone could do a show with no rehearsal, they played music with each other every day of their lives
How he must miss her.
HA - that's the first thing I said when this video started: BOBBIE!!! ....and, my 22 yr old son said: No, it's not - that's Willie Nelson.... 🙄 RIP, BOBBIE!! PLAY ON, WILLIE!!!
Elvis definitely sung it
Angel flying to close to the ground by Willie is absolutely beautiful….his version of this is soooo beautiful and brings me to tears everytime
My favorite Willie song.
"Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys" Willie Nelson with Waylon Jennings. Gotta check out that classic!
Oh, I love that song, my late brother used to play it for my niece when she was little, she loved it so much. I had the privilege of seeing Willie in concert, he was fantastic!
Willie's song 'Angel flying to close to the ground' is such a loved song
Willie's as famous for the songs he's written for others as he is for his own performances.
And for his guitar work , not a shredder ,more like BB King
Willie Nelson...simple and honest, that's all it takes and what he delivers! No flowery, bombastic-contrived emotionalism, just truth!
That is Willie's sister, Bobbie, on the piano. She passed away a year or so ago. This is one of Willie's best. "Blue Eyes Cryin in the Rain" is another. Also, his duet with Loretta Lynn.."Lay Me Down" is wonderful. And, his recording of "Don't Let The Old Man In" written for Clint Eastwood by Toby Keith. Willie has a totally different cadence to his singing than anyone else. He's one of our state treasures.
Willie has written over 2,500 songs, looks like smoking copious amounts of weed has worked out alright for him and Keith, they just keep going.
His Red Headed Stranger album is a masterpiece and a must.
Fun Fact: Dolly Parton wrote and recorded I will always love you
I think Snoop said Willie was probably the only person that could out smoke him. Love them both for their music. Great react. Keep it up
Willie has a couple of song videos that are pretty good. I will Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again and The World Has Gone to Pot. You should check them out. lol I loved them both. Waylon and him sing these two songs together.
See if you can find the video of Toby Kieth (live version) singing his song "I'll Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again". Willie is on stage with him as he hears the song for the first time. The grin on Willie's face as he's taking in the lyrics is priceless!
@Code9 Willie heard the song for the first time at his 70th birthday concert.
Willie is another one of those legends in music. He also is one hell of a song writer. He has wrote over 2,000 songs for everyone from Aretha Franklin to Cake. Some others that he wrote for were Al Green, Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline
“I Will Always Love You,” was written by Dolly Parton. She won Grammy’s for her rendition then years later for Whitney’s version.
Have you heard Dolly sing "I Will Always Love You?" If you haven't do it now!
Willie is currently on a twenty four date tour at the age of ninety.I'm going to drive from Denver to Lincoln, Nebraska to see him for the first time.He is truly a living legend.
The “hook” in this piece is the song itself, the words, the music and the presentation by Willie Nelson. It’s an honest confession from him to her, quietly, that gets your heart & soul. Some songs don’t need head banging noise! Know what I mean?
You're not alone. So many of us should be singing or playing this for our wives. It's never too late.
This song is why I am a wife.
"Willie Nelson's range" 😂. My friend, that IS his range and thank God for it. He tells musical stories. As others have said, the man is a musical treasure.
He's been in movies too, hes my favorite male country singer
Love Willie’s version. Another beautiful version is the one by Elvis. It brought tears because it was around the time of Elvis’ divorce and you felt the emotion in his voice. Thanks for this great reaction. 👏👏🥰
Saw Willie play two nights ago and he sang this very song, I had to go back and see if you had done a reaction and yes you did. He is 91 years old now and has to sit to play, but he still gots it!!
Willie was a songwriter for the biggest names in the music industry through the 50's and 60's before becoming a performer.
Another one of our Texas Treasures. The man lives life his way
Willie Nelson, in his younger days, was known as, and is still referred to by the old time country artists and fans, as the Red Headed Stranger. Just a little bit of personal knowledge for you Pegasus. Your friend, the Retired Paramedic in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Willie has such an incredible past, writer, composer and singer, duh. ‘The Red headed stranger’ is an album in itself. You should treat yourself and spend 30 minutes with that masterpiece.
Willie's sister on the piano. Willie isn't a belter. He's mellow by design, and that's the way his fans like it.
I highly recommend Angel Flying to Close to the Ground. One of the most beautiful songs ever written!
PEGASUS, YOU MUST CHECK HIGHWAYMEN BY THE HIGHWAYMEN! YOU WILL LOVE IT. It's a song by the band Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and Waylon Jennings created in the 80's.
And please do the video… it gives you the whole story @BlackPegas 👍👍👍 .. you’ll love it!!
Sometimes less is more. Willie makes you feel this song. He was a fan of Frank Sinatra. Norah Jones is a fan of Willie and carries the influence forward. I think they did a duet once.
They did. Wurlitzer Prize. Absolutely fantastic duet.
My husband passed away, and this song hits home. He was in a veteran's home that was 2 hours away. I should've been there more for him. He had Alzheimers, PTSD, Agent Orange. Now that he's gone, i don't think i did love him enough. He was always on my mind
You won't forget this Willie song. He wrote hundreds of songs and sang most of them too.
Willie wrote that song, along with many other greats. CRAZY, that was sung by Patsy Cline was another of Willies hits.
Willie Nelson and his life’s journey is right up there with Johnny Cash! Willie is my favorite
I think this is a song of reflection. A man realizing how important this special person is to then and how much he took them for granted. We can all relate to this and be grateful to Willie Nelson for saying it so beautifully.
Yes, Elvis sang this first!! Love both versions!
Love his version too🔥❤️
Love both versions ❤
Thats Willie's sister Bobbie playing piano.Willie probably has one of the most distinct guitar sounds. He always said when Trigger goes he'll go. That guitar is still going.
My Dad took us to see Willie Nelson when I was a kid. He was so good in concert; back then Willie had short hair and wore a suit and tie!
Legend Willie, true words spoken.
Willie is a unique dude.
Willie is like someone that makes you feel like he's only singing to you. He has a warm embracing quality to his voice. He is an amazing guitar player so really listen to what he does with it. It is a classical guitar. I have seen him 3 times, not enough but he's on the top of my favorites. We have be blessed to have him this long. Keep going Willie.
There is still time to show her how much you truly love her . I have been married 47 years and we still tell each other every day 😢
Absolutely adorable! God Bless you both!
Thank you And God Bless you
Dude, It’s it so amazing how music, instruments, melodies and lyrics put you in your feels?? Willie has always been in my music rotation since the 70’s!!! I’m 59!!!
Angel flying to close to the ground is a must listen.
One of the most lyrical songs expressing love and regret. Masterpiece!
Great reaction and analysis man.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
His timing, pauses are conversational. He has a lovely tone of voice. He also has a unique way of playing tbe guitar
Willie opens his shows with "Whiskey River Take My Mind."
It’s never too late to tell someone you love them. My husband and I have been together for 38 years and we still hold hands.
I remember back in the 80s being a teenager, and my grandma loved Willie. I never really paid attention. Now, I'm 53, and this is actually making me emotional. I totally get what you're saying, BP.
Me too! I’m tearing up!
This is one of my favorite covers of all time.
Yeah one of his biggest hits he didn’t write
Please, please and again please…more Willie! Ray Charles
and Willie collaborated on many songs but the one that
really got to me was A Song for you. Ray had just told Willie
backstage that he was dying and the song was for their
friendship. Not many songs have affected me like that but
it was very special. Willie is my spirit-person..I’ll love him
always.
Angel Flying Too Close Too The Ground is a beautiful song by Willie
His entire "Stardust" album blew me away.
My real dad is a huge Willie fan and this song breaks my heart every time I hear it-he and I have a strained relationship and in the last 20 yrs, I have had to realize that, while far from perfect he loves me in his own way even if he hasn’t always been present.
Willie Nelson is the only man on earth that can wear pig tails and still be considered masculine. He wrote some gospel songs that would surprise people to know.
You need to hear Willie sing “Blue eyes Crying in the Rain!!”
Willie is a story teller singer. He always sings like that. It is what makes him so liked.
My oldest son is 22 and my mom's favorite talking point about him is how he used to say "meme go one the road again".... Willie was the first musical artist that my son ever kinda quoted lol.
Angel too close to the ground.....Blue Eyes crying in the Rain.... great songs.....Seven Spanish Angels with Wille and Ray Charles you will love his music. you were feeling it
Perfect illustration of when they say, 'less can be more', for sure. He accomplished
the same result when a song he wrote called 'Crazy' was taken to the highest level
of acceptance in country music by Patsy Cline. Again, simple.....but with penetration
to the human soul of monumental proportion.
This is my favorite song EVER! I love me some Willie Nelson and his son sounds just like him!
His son, Lucas Nelson, covers some of his songs and sounds a lot like him. He has his own band. Promise of the Real, with his own music.
A treasure in the music industry ❤🎉
Saw Willie back in the day . His songs make ya think. Go give them both a hug.
blue eyes crying in the rain is a gem as well
I love Willie Nelson and Ray Charles singing ( Seven Spanish Angels)❤❤❤❤
Nelson wrote "Crazy" recorded by Patsy Cline in 1961. !!
But you were always on my mind. And I'm so happy that you're mine. Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died. That is the truth. Good reaction.
I like all music. But old country hits my soul like nothing else.
Willie is a MAJOR song writer google his list of songs. He wrote this song along with many others that were recorded by top singers of the day.
He is also called the Red headed stranger, Biue eyes crying in the rain
willie has a ton of hits plus wrote songs for a ton of people
My Mom's favorite song. I think of her every time I hear this. Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground is a great one. Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys, with Waylon Jennings is another classic.
Hey Black P, you brought up Whitney Houston singing I Will Always Love You. In case you didn't know, Whitney covered that song. It was originally a Dolly Parton song. She wrote and performed that song for Porter Wagoner when she left his TV show.
Also Tim McGraw's ( Always Stay Humble and Kind)❤❤❤❤
It’s called SOUL !
Lost my wife a year ago now, this song is making me think of her.
I honestly believe that any man in a relationship for more than a few years can relate to the words of this song.
Love Willie. He has a unique voice and vibe. He's so laid back and casual, but he speaks to you. I can tell by the emotion showing on your face just how deeply this song is hitting you..
Check out Willie and Snoop Dogg together singing..... "Roll Me Up and Smoke Me"
Also check out group, *The Highway Men singing "The City of New Orleans". The group includes Willie Nelson (taking the lead on this song) Johnny Cash, Waylan Jennings and Kris Kristofferson there's a mean harmonica all the way through this song.
If you Google, Songs written by Willie Nelson, it will blow your mind. He was a songwriter before he was a singer.
Playing and writing since the 1950's. Have met people who have played with him.
Look into his IRS Tapes. Gotta love Willie. I always thought it would be the best time to be a fly on the wall back in the day listening to Willie, Waylon, Kris and Johnny hanging out and telling stories. His 4th of July picnic was always one of my mother's favorite things to do in the 70's and 80s. I think he still does it.
Willie is a way underrated vocalist.
Agree 100%.
It's never too late to tell your wife how soecial she is to you.Women crave words of verbal affirmation,it lights us up! There is a great book called The Five Love Languages,check it out! Love this song so much! So tender...💞🎙🎶
An amazing songwriter. A 70-year career.
Blue Eyes Crying in the rain. Dolly Parton - I Will Always Love You
I am so glad you reacted to this song by this totally genuine icon. I cannot imagine another person in the WORLD, who could have such a huge following as a singer, when he sings with such a nasal sound. That is normally not considered to be desirable but somehow Willie became super famous singing like that for decades. There is no pretension in him. He is always himself, no frills, no fuss, just a man with a guitar or harmonica standing on a stage and sharing his music, his heart, and his soul. He is beloved and a national treasure. If you ever get the chance, watch the very last part of his 90th Birthday Tribute that was televised. He got up on stage and performed with a wide variety of artists. You would have especially enjoyed his duet with Snoop Dogg when they sang the classic " Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die" !! How perfect is that !!?? It astonished me how sharp Willie still is. He was just Willie, doing his thing, as if he was in his living room and he knew the words to every song he sang and did not miss a note vocally or on guitar !! I was super-impressed by that. I was fortunate to have seen him live in the 1980's with Waylon Jennings, and it was AN EXPERIENCE AND A HALF !!! He is someone to be remembered. Thank you. This made my day! 😊 🎸🎙🎶🌞❣
The song was written by Mark James who also wrote and performed Suspicious Minds.
Just sing it to her .she wont notice you can not sing .But she will hear and feel the words and meanings .Trust me .
I was invited to Laughlin Nevada, Free Tickets to an outdoor small venue concert Saturday night 4/20… Willie Nelson concert got center stage seats about 18 rolls back👍, I’m so glad to have seen him…. There is a FREE RUclips movie called HONEYSUCKLE ROSE 🌹, a 1980 movie starring Willie👍🤗
I also love Elvis singing this song to his wife Priscilla on the music video, love it👍🤗♥️
Love him. I was raised on Willie Nelson. Good stuff.
Yes, Elvis sang it in 1972 and Wille in 82. I love both versions.
even though this is a love song it hits home for me tonight. this morning I lost my very first and best friend - we've been friends for 56 years. we lived 5 blocks away and didn't get to get together as much as when we were young, but she was always on my mind. this song means so much now
Willie will be 91 in April!! You Must Hear:
Angel Flying to Close to the Ground (audio - no video to it)
When you have a great song vocal acrobatics are really necessary.
My husband heard this song one day driving home from work and when he walked in he told me this is the way he felt when he was listening to it.
My favorite of his is either “ride me back home” or “7 Spanish angels”
