El Paso-Marty Robbins

[MultiKellykelly123]

my mum and me used to sing this:) she passed away 2wks ago and this is our song<3 xx

[gompth1966]

An undeniable masterpiece.

[adixon65]

On this day in 1960, Marty Robbins single, "El Paso" reached #1 on the music charts. While the lyrics, melody, cadence, spanish guitar, tragic story and of course, Marty Robbins incredible voice, are each fantastic on their own, together they combine to truly become something greater than their sum. This song has proven timeless, transcending not only from country music into mainstream, but into other cultures and countries too. It is well known all over the world to this day. Thank you!

[jsilence418]

Grady Martins' guitar playing is killer !!

[greenmonsterprod]

I don't usually like tragic songs, but this is an exception. Well-performed and very touching.

[sweetpepper36]

My dad used to sing this to me at the doctors office when I was little, to calm me down...I was afraid of the shots lol. I'm in my twenties now and listen to it whenever I feel homesick.

[aperfectfailyour]

SHIT ITS A DEATHCLAW!

[sunofpeter]

[lucyredwitch]

[nomosloflo]

RIP Marty

[mgwilliams1000]

One of the best song writers in America. I understand he wrote this on a notepad in the passenger seat of the family station wagon as they drove thorugh the Texas bad-lands, while looking at the scene around him with the kids in the back seat. Am I wrong?

[victor102able]

[awsomecrazyfaces]

@MrSmoothtrooper never said i sang tht song bud

[aisutetei]

@awsomecrazyfaces "this is the song i made of el paso" It's a little misleading, for a moment I thought you meant you sang it until I heard it.

[MrSmoothtrooper]

@MrSmoothtrooper ahhhhhhh but the way you say it on your discription it sounded as if you where playing the song.

[awsomecrazyfaces]

To all viewers how even care what should the next song I do be comment and tell me any song name it..

[awsomecrazyfaces]

What's really funny is how people are somehow getting to this video through video games..... Am I correct I'm not really understanding how people r talking about fallout and a Marty Robbins epic song??

[bradzoot]

I guess this is the recording with the fabulous Glaser brothers. I remember listening to this when I was 12 or so and crying with emotion. Correct me if I'm wrong. :-)

[awsomecrazyfaces]

Hey guys if u comment on this u r helping me find out what I should do with my channel and I just want to no what the people who watch my most watched video what should I do should I just make a channel that does songs or what name it I'll be checking daily ur voice matters in this

[BadMonTrini1]

[demonkai76]

[demonkai76]

I just got finish playing Fallout Vegas and i got brainwashed with the song "Big iron" and was tryin to deny i liked it and i really love it lol Well its cool i was told theres Country and theres Western. i hate country so that makes me a fan of Western then ^_-

[grannydyess]

[elrepoman]

love this song :)



[TheBlueCream]

beautiful...thanks for the post

[kingmanted]

Catchiest song ever...in a good way!! =)

[Marjorie538]

One of the nicest songs Marty sang..A terrific guy!! MM Wrexham N Wales UK..

[adixon65]

This is the best song ever written. The lyrics, background vocals and guitar, along with Robbins unique natural voice all combine to be truly greater than the sum of their parts. My favorite song ever since I was 4 years old!

[faron592]

i remember when i was in nashville about 3 years ago and i went racing with my dad at the speedway. when they would turn on the loud speaker this was always the first song that was played. this brings back some good memories. i really hope they dont knock that place down

[hungry4TocoBell]

1 guy is a frekin' NAZI! MEXICANS. MEXICANS. epsect 4 some lol

[DuPuieproductions]

The cowboy that got shot is the one who rated this down.

[darren171066]

Reminds me of me old mate Big Al. Miss you.

[welcometoorefuge]

This song, along with Patsy's, is probably on 90% of the juke boxes in America.

[nycmuse]

Awww....this song reminds me of being a little girl and how my dad listened to this

on Sunday mornings while he made pancakes. Thank you! :)

[majingotenx8]

Haven't heard this song since I worked at the petrifried forest!!!! Couldn't believe it, your the best.

[socaldad55]

Love this song!!



[phantomoftheopera789]

:.( sob

[l87kmps]

Thanks for the excellent recording of Marty (Glendale Arizona) Robbins, my fav Marty song to play and sing, nowhere as good but I love it and.........

telling a story for people, "something is dreadfully wrong" don't U love that, over a dame too.

[swissroll40]

Why were they chasing Felina's boyfriend? Not for killing the "wild young cowboy", but for STEALING A HORSE!!!

♥♥ Marty, Marty, Marty ♥♥

Only one BIG thing to say...

AMAZING...

[bigmac97027]

my grandmother that is now 79 years of age introduced me to this wonderful song and im not much of a country person but marty robins is a spectacular artist. :)

[1995mrcole]

always loved this guy's music

[starchild691]

my man,handsome,great voice.your legend lives.

[davgard1960]

Hey Robin remember?

[emerybayblues]

I was never into country music but I always liked this song so much. I think it was the quality of the lyrics that makes this song so attractive to me.

[greeenchick66]

hahaha my bff has this song 4 her ringtone lol

[Elric33239]

A brilliant parody of the story connected to this song could be found by typing "Steve Martin - and Monkeys" in the search box. It's from the TV special "Comedy Isn't Pretty!"

[Elric33239]

From a bygone age when songs told stories that moved you! Thanks for posting this!

[F14ace]

One of Robbins's finest...

[lakebay972]

Marty Robbins (1925-1982)

[THEk1nslayer]

i heard this song for the first time today. It really made me sad that music is no longer made this way. I haven't heard a modern day song this good since i listened to immortal techniques - Dance with Devil or Raconteurs - Carolina Drama. Songs like this just leave you in awe as you listen to each word being said in harmony with the music. its just good music, and thats hard to find these days.

[ScreamingTc]

They don't write songs like this today, do they? I mean songs with a narrative and not just some obscure way of saying your screwing the girl next door. It's a shame really because this song is an utter joy to follow to it's bitter-sweet end.

[fanmusiclover123]

i would like you to leave song on your youtube awsomecrazyfaces this song is a classic by a legend thanks for doing this!!!!!!

[Rodysniper]

Bravo.. It makes me sad, but in the best possible way. Thank you for the upload.

[hipoldlady57]

I miss you my friend

[BobK1001]

"Now we're gonna play El Paso baby, featuring the "red hot Marty Robbins baby!" "This is the old Wolf Man Jack beamin' 150,000 watts of power at you baby, from X E R F in Ciudad Acuna, Coahila, Mexico".... I miss the old days with Wolf Man.

[bdbd1955]

[KopytoGroma]

I've always thought it funny that when I was in the Army, the 2 stations I was at had songs about them: Town Without Pity for Bamberg, Germany and this one for Fort Bliss (El Paso). Thanks!

[worseto]

@KopytoGroma Hey i used to deliever frieght there.You guys there are some real badasses i felt like i was in the military every time i dropped a trailer there.Hell i think i might have even gave a couple of salutes.They knew who i was and where i was supposed to be. Good ole days

[keeer741]

FORD MUSTANG?

[Noremorse10]

This one song, from an era of other great talents, is better than anything I hear on mainstream radio. It contains a wonderful voice, instrumental skill and a tragic story.

[SpotterOz]

Thanks for sharing this tragic love song.

One of my all time favorites that you can't help but sing along with. ;-D

[Jackspadeproductions]

Taylor swift if youre watching take notes on what real country is

[bdbd1955]

@Jackspadeproductions Who the fuck is Taylor Swift?

[Jackspadeproductions]

@bdbd1955 No One

[BobK1001]

Marty was an excellent singer with his own original unique style. His brand of C&W cannot be topped. El Paso has always been one of my favorites.

[SpotterOz]

@BobK1001 Singer and balladeer. ;-D

[Hummr2000]

Thanks for this song.... near and dear to my heart. One of the best voices... so pure and lyrical. Actually got to kiss him at a fair in Monroe, La, in the 70s. He was very kind and friendly.

[Hummr2000]

I got to actually kiss him at a fair in Monroe, La, in the 70s. This song is near and dear to my heart! Thanks for posting it.

[robinkane1]

good song, thanks for posting, love from Northern Ireland

[jetfueller]

Back in 1968 I went back to Scotland for a couple of years and I played the Gunfighter Ballads album till it nearly wore through. Marty made me so homesick for this side I just had to come back. I never got to see him live and I really missed out.

He was a real class country singer who loved the music and the cowboy life and legends, like I said before I really miss that old cowboy. I hope I get to meet him in the next life.

[BobK1001]

Ah! I don't blame him for coming back to El Paso!! Those leetle Mexican Senoritas are very preety!! I would have done the same theeng! Hola to the preety Senoritas!! Kudos to Marty for recording this great song!

[JujyHalloween]

@BobK1001 >_> really man? Really? No quiedo!

[BobK1001]

@JujyHalloween ... "really man?" , jes ... "really"? jes... No instickitino!

... Hola to the lovely Senoritas!!

[beatlesfan398]

[oostenrijkopa]

i do not like this song. but i respect the people who like this. but i don't

[TexanJD]

This has always been onna my favorite gunfighter ballads of all time. I remember hearing someone say one time "no woman is worth dyin for, killin for, but not dyin for"

[greendodobean]

As a child many years ago needed this song played before I went to sleep.

[fanmusiclover123]

awsomecrazyfaces tyhanks for doing this! this song is a classic and marty robbins is a legend!

[witchwilllena]

[TheHazardman131]

[Hypnociss]

I love this song, I was passing through El Paso about two years ago and stopped at a bar and ended up falling in love with a mexican girl there haha. I am a white dude from SoCaL and I thought we had some hot latinas but wow! Texas has some beautiful latinas!

[awsomecrazyfaces]

[Wavecurve]

Just enjoy the stirring, enchanting music!

[LOLMardia]

Def. one of the best songs in country music history.

[BigOrangeTitan]

absolutely

[bobctx]

GO UTEP!

[BigOrangeTitan]

[bearsight67]

Actually the lesson here is control your white boy temper and not resort to violence as a first option.

[sickwititty]

thats funny on so many levels

[awsomecrazyfaces]

so true

[Smirker88]

A great classic song! It has an important lesson as well; don't fall in love with mexican bar whores.

[awsomecrazyfaces]

so true dude

[raynelycan]

So... We would stay away from your mom?

[Smirker88]

Yes, you should stay away from my mom. Your mom on the other hand is fair game and always has been.

[zmok15]

Haha nice one that was funny

[Jemone4u]

i love this it has a sound that needs to live forever

[awsomecrazyfaces]

[wmbrown6]

This is the original mono version, with an extra verse that was missing from the stereo version. This I infinitely prefer to the stereo.
