  • That piano player had to be Pig Robbins. He played on a session of mine

    in the 60's and I it sure sounds like him as he created that style of playing.

  • who was his session piano player? he had a unique style, whoever it was.

  • Carat refers to diamonds. Title should be 14K Mind.

    (Fourteen Karat Mind). Love the song,

  • One of the purest voices ever in Country music

  • hello, first time i heard Gene sing I knew he would be a major force in the country music scene

  • This has always been one of my favorites by him. he's so great he's just as great as cash an haggard. and thy are legends I just feel he hasn't got as much recognition as he deserves and to me he's also a legend thankx for the vid yours truly .. Mr Toe ...

  • Great!  Thanks for sharing!

  • Brings a chill and ready to cut a 2 step!!!!!!!

  • George Jones said "When Gene Watson sings a song it has been sung!."

  • @norbie6 George would know,and,he's right.Gene is right up there with all of the genre of Jones,IMO.Terrific song!

  • One of the best classic country singer ever. Now ya'll this is raw grit gen u wine country music

  • Great song, by a singer with real talent!

  • Gene Watson Rocks, No Doubt. A history in my family that is too complicated to go into - still, NICE - no, we are not related, just a history of people who love good music

  • When a singer puts goose bumps on you that's when you know how good they really are, WOW!

  • He's like the "Chuck Norris" of classic country!

  • very nice upload..thank you.....

  • Comment removed

  • I guess that's why he is known as "The Singers' Singer"!

  • One of the greatest Country Singers / song writers of All-Time.....So under rated ....

  • This man is a class act, 2 summers ago he stayed for over 3 hours doing autographs and talking with people. Definitely one of the greats in country that has been pushed to the side for this new country crap.

  • this is another of genes many songs that i love. this man is awsome and i have the great pleasure to say i met him at at one of his concerts i went to three days ago.

  • this man is great!!!!!!!!!

  • Saw Gene Watson live in Ireland TWICE last weekend (31st July & 1st August) - Brilliant. I will post 2 videos from the show ( Countryfest in Letterkenny, Ireland) when I have figured out how.

  • Still TOPS in Country......His voice and songs span years of time, and go on......

    Where is he today?

  • @Bonnydel EVERY WHERE !!!!!

  • @Bonnydel Still touring and blessing us with that great voice.

  • He has a really smooth sounding voice

  • Great music... todays country needs an overhaul

  • @grabbber very true

  • this is my song allright it;s all about me and my golddigging ways..hey

    OneInsuranceDiva

  • Studio version became Gene's only #1 in Jan. '82 in Billboard. God bless!

  • One of Gene's best songs! After hearing this song for the first time many yrs. ago, I fell in love with Gene's music. Have had the true priveledge of seeing him perform twice. What an honor. He deserves the honor of being inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. So overdo! If you are a facebook member you can join the group, Elect Gene Watson to the Country Music Hall of Fame.

  • yeah... he's got a great voice.

  • Gene Watson is a TRUE legend of the traditional country which there isn't anymore except ONE artist and that would be George Strait. Not taking anything away from Mr. Watson cause he is one of the BEST EVER and I have met him twice in person and is a real down home country boy but it is extremely sad that Nashville has become THRASHVILLE over the last 20 years. GREAT POST!!!! GENE ROCKS!!!!! I give him a BILLION stars for being MR. HONKY TONK

  • It don't get no better.

  • This has to be one of the classic country songs of classic country and sang by an underrated singer...he's one of the best.

  • Purest voice in country music.

  • The world stops for a minute when singers like Watson, Haggard, Jones, Cash, and Jennings come on the radio.

  • Gene is the greatest country singer we have left!

  • @norbie6 yes Gene is one great singers ; awesome ;;

  • Youngest kid of Pat. One of my older bros. turned me on to Gene then all my rocken roll friends just had to listen to some good country when they rode with me. Pissed them off at first then I started getting request for songs.

    1/2 A PINT LEFT is STILL A PARTY IN A BOTTLE.

  • some serious piano licks here........

  • Wish I could play bass that good!

  • lesy1.....is correct. A Bridge or Walk down is what the bassman was doing. Adds a little "flavour" , that's all.

  • Actually, he did lose a note there. He picked it right back up and 99% wouldn't know it. He was walking down and just kinda slipped a note is all.

  • bass was not lost walk down

  • nice video bass man was a little lost at times right at 1:15 was a pretty bad one lol

  • now thats country

  • I seen him at Fayetteville Wv yrs ago,, man that guy could sing, wow

  • Chuck Norris xDD

  • Great song by Gene, He has a voice as do many of the classic country singers. You don't have to guess who it is. Todays country singers don't have that. They all sound alike.

  • Ricky Skaggs said the same thing. He said he couldn't tell who was singing these days but when a Gene Watson starts there is no doubt.

  • You got that right! Generic is what today's singers are.

  • @rockinredneck57 Amen,its all about image today.Plus the songs sound like a 5th grader wrote em.

  • Gene is fabulous always. What a voice. I have different versions of him singing this super hit and I love them all.

    We saw him in person at Renfro Valley Entertainment Center here in Kentucky back in August and he was as great as everyone who had met him said he was. He put on a really great show and we're so thankful he comes back each year to entertain his fans. Thanks again for posting this. - Paula (PaulinaRena)

  • Thanks for posting love this true country sound

  • Down to all damn gold diggers !

  • It doesn't get any better than this.

    5*

  • Yes, In deed!!! They don't breed like this anymore do they?? Love ole Gene!!

  • Gene Watson is a great talent and is indicative of the many great talents from that time period. They were so much better than the current rubbish country of today, that somehow is passing for country music.

  • I'm afraid to turn on the radio anymore, I might be subjected to "Taylor Swift" or others of her ilk who can't "sing" without electronic doubling and pitch correction. It's pop, not country.

  • Gene is opening for Merl... Both are still alive

    Love

  • Ralph Emory says that Watson is his favorite singer.

  • Thanks for putting this song on!!!

  • I can confirm Gene is not dead dosy777. His guitar player Randy Prince died as a result of a RTA. He was on the way to meet the bus for depature to play in Nashville.

  • R.i.p. Gene............the angels are the luckey ones on this date!

  • He ain't dead.

  • I just read your comment!!!

    Good minds think alike!!! LOL

  • Another great!!! I love his voice!!!

    Don't he look like Chuck Norris, here?

  • Hi - I have been thinking the same thing. Gene does look like Chuck Norris here - and that's two great artists for sure ! I do so love this version by Gene even tho he sounds fabulous no matter which one he does.  It was sad to hear of musician Randy Prince's death in an auto accident. He was a terrific musician. Thank you again for posting this winner. - Paula

  • one of my fav country songs. I saw Gene at Countryfest in Dungannon in August 2008. The headline act was George Jones other acts included Ricky Skaggs and Nancy Griffiths as well as a lot of Irish country artists. Gene was by far the best of the Americans. He performed in shorts and t-shirt as the flight company had lost their luggage but it didnt make a difference. Himself and his band were terrific. His voice hasnt changed a bit.

  • I first discovered Gene in the late 70's, he left me speechless then & still does after all these years, I agree "Farewell Party" was & still is his very best........way to go Gene !!!!!!

  • cantry akurat lubię, a to jest fajna nutka...

    super...****

  • Gene Watson has always been a great artist & I think all of his songs should have been # 1 hits!! He's awesome!!

  • Comment removed

  • The best.

  • Amazing song, amazing voice, amazing man. He sings with true feeling and he just gets better with age!

  • This man can flat sing. Wonder what he is doing in 2009. I love his voice, we need more good ole country songs

  • This was his one & only #1 song hit-In my opinion all of his recordings should be #1-

    He is just the greatest singer ever- Mitzi

  • Now that is good music, thanks to ramey58 for sending me here. will be back and check out some more.

  • I think I like this better than the medley.

  • I like this one better too Mark. It's good to see and hear Tracy, Ricky and James sing with Gene in the medley but Gene is just wonderful here alone. His voice always shines above all others. - Paula

  • Gene is the greatest. This is the first time I've seen this particular video of him doing this song. It doesn't look like his regular band and I'm wondering when and where this was done. I love this song by Gene. Just like everything else he sings he does a great job here. I love everything he sings, especially the ballads such as "Where Love Begins". He's the singer's singer for sure. Thank you for posting. - Paula

  • This is a awesome song thanks for posting it
