Jeez, that is so good it hurts and it was live. What great music we had back at that time and he was one of the best. Thanx for the post. I'll be back.
Love this song 4ever! Even though it's about a bad relationship, it's upbeat and perfect as a classic song from a very classic guy! Thanks for posting!
You know, When he does the drop in his great voice, it's fantastic! In my opinion, there is not a better singer! (Mr. Marty Robbins, and Mr. Merle Haggard are rite there with HIM)!
i remember a little cutie that sang this and he sang it good- His girlfriend couldn't sing unless you count horribly- My husband can't hit a note- Sometimes I wonder if we had gotten together we'd have a good duet going- Just singing, mind you!
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 ...
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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)
i love to hear gene sing this song hes got the right tone and sound . yeaaaaaaaaa gene i can have him all to myself as long as i got my computer . sing me a lalaby
lol i know the feeling always trylor swift i just got tired of hearing her sing.... and then it was tractors ........ at least here i can listen to the best.
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.
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.
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 !!!!!!
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
Good Lord. Where is he now? I would wash his feet with my hair...
