George Strait - Amarillo By Morning - 1996 Houston Rodeo

[chicobro100]

So dats where great music came from. I wish new musicians take a look at oldies like this cus the new country music is not bad but will never compare to this

[5Silhouette6]

You can thank Terry Stafford for writin' this song.

[santinorudy1]

@5Silhouette6 Had no idea.

[amywynn217]

IMHO, this is THE most quintessential song of the 80's! Brilliant!

And DAMN can this man rock a pair of Wranglers like nobody else...whew!

From a Houston gal!

[lordofpardon]

I like the fiddle most



[silecune]

I was at this concert! Wow, this brings back memories... The Houston rodeo is awesome, and so is George!

[cruisin6401]

you were so fortunate!

[sstricklandfighter18]

makes me want to load up the truck and head on down the road.

[snattler]

I went to a George Strait in 1996 concert in Raleigh, NC and he had his original twin fiddlers playing.

[kdg192]

he is so cute and sweet and he is a good singer and i love this song

[der2035]

I listen to both kinds of music. Country and Western.

[Airomist]

@der2035 HaHaha you tell 'em Brother!

[jlphancock]

There is no one better!!!!

[EParrisHill]

Good Lord sure was smiling on George. Love him and his music-making !

[MsBjbear]

George is great and this is one of my very favorite songs.

[rashelle97]

@60smusicforever11 correct but they aren't exactly alike you could tell them apart by the way they talk

[rashelle97]

@60smusicforever11 maybe some resemblance there just maybe

[Shaded07]

I miss the Astrodome.... It's a tiny ant that sits next to Reliant Stadium... And I thought the Astrodome was big....

[rashelle97]

@60smusicforever11 Rick Perry and George Strait don't look at all alike

[christinesv4]

Oh yea I was there. I miss KING GEORGE coming to the Houston Rodeo.

[umopapisdn1977]

2 people got mad cos there isnt any lyrics in braille.

[greeneking77]

really bad version compared to the rest due to violinist using electronic effects. I'm sure George sat him down n set him Strait after the show.

[LS164]

George, I've known since the beginning of time and I'll know you till the end of time <3

[jusabartender1]

Oh I love him and he needs to be touched!

[biggootz]

Used to drive back to central Texas from Colorado. I'd leave Colorado late in the afternoon and all I wanted to do was made Amarillo by morning.

[grenadeserenade]

@60smusicforever11 And because George seems like the kind of ethical, level-headed guy we need running a large portion of the country.

[tom79g]

Saw him in raleigh north carolina a few years ago and it was probably one of the best shows ive ever seen ---- very pure

[claudiocesar10]

É UMA DAS MELHORES VOZES NO ESTILO COUNTRY QUE EU JA OUVI!!!!

HE IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!

[kittykatellis]

i loveee George Strait and i am 15 years old :)

LOVEEEE HIM!!!

[shauniegayle]

my mom used to sing this song to me when i was a baby, and now when im sick, or in the hospital having surgery, she still does.

[BlankUberAlles]

not to take anything from George and his brilliant rendition of this great song, but he should mention the late Terry Stafford who wrote and performed this tune. Terry is all but forgotten and George owes him some due

[evansco2]

@BlankUberAlles George has always given credit where credit is due. I haven't seen every interview of George of heard every convo that he has. Have you......we don't know what he says about who. But, I have heard him be very generous in mention of his band and other song writters. I really don't think George is trying to deceive anyone on this song

[BlankUberAlles]

@evansco2 I didnt say George was trying to decieve anyone on this song. I merely said George owes Terry some due.

[grhzstar]

I love  this man

[conroexlexx]

Justin Beiber can't sing like George

[johnnyphilhunt]

@conroexlexx who cares how justin beiber sings just listen to the song and shutup

[MrGeorgestrait97]

@conroexlexx

Justin Beiber can't sing at all. She needs to go back to canada and cry like the little girl we all know she is.

[amywynn217]

This to me is the best country & western song of the 80's. And that's saying a lot cause that was a great decade for C&W music.

[kboyy18]

la ke te hizo grande mi jorge estrecho

[TRUCKSANDTRAINS21]

He is what he is. Smooth and no frills. No smoke and mirrors. Just like his movie, he's 'Pure Country'.

[MsBarbiegirl09]

Hes one of the best country artists.

2 people dont know what real music is.

[kev4fun12]

...awesome talent....THE most boring concert Ive been to...

[80sVidLover]

I used to love this song, guess I still do, but now it makes me cry: lost my wife and girlfriend along the way. Yes, George, I have, too, and now I am all alone, and being alone is so depressing :(

But I still like to listen to this song, even tho I am crying myself to sleep right now.....

[18paz]

linda essa musica !

[telecasterbear]

who is that in the red shirt behind george at 2:18? great harmony.

[evansco2]

@telecasterbear there is a clip of him introducing the band...if that helps

[SUNSNARE06]

@telecasterbear

Thats David Anthony, he was George's acoustic guitar player for many years, sadly though he is no longer touring with George

[85buickV8]

2:44 I could listen to that fiddle all day and not get tired of it!

[700mxzx]

Real Country music..

[kydavis40]

george strait is the best country artist

[zohaneanu]

@kydavis40 Alan Jackson is the best  :) amazing voice.

[BulldogPlaya50]

@zohaneanu nope

[spacesean]

Strait !! Pure !!!

[ieatbluecrayons84]

governor? try president ;)

[countrygirl2397]

There seem to be 2 people going around disliking anything that is actually good! They should just stick with their awful rap crap and stay away from real music! This is fantastic!

[iappreciategoodmusci]

@countrygirl2397 Really!! If they don't like this kind of music they should go on to the rap-in-crap they are used to.

[JoJoBean8318]

He's amazing!! And gorgeous!! =)

[firsttry67]

he is the best

[AntipodalREX]

GS = = cock hugging pantz.

[XxPANTERA4LIFExX]

George Strait IS Country Music! well with the help of Garth Brooks and Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings

[frog442]

definitely old school country. not like most of the posers these days.

[ohhmatty]

for example jason aldean, rascal flatts, toby keith, the list goes on and on.

[nurseangel44]

They played this at my cousin Bill's & Bobby's services, they both followed the rodeo circuit & will be greatly missed. This song holds new meaning for me a dedication to two men who pretty much lived the lyrics of this song. Love George Strait

[cledus211]

he is comeing to denver co april first im going

[3rdCoastBorn84]

@Oldmlover.. man do you even know what this song is about? Its about bull riding he said he will be looking for 8 when they pull that gate.. (8 secs)

[pukindogs75]

he should run for president,he is still going strong.

[Oldgmlover]

She be lookin' for 8 when I pull that gate? Man this song should be X-rated!

Still,#1 in my book!

[csgould1234]

i am a heave metal man and i listen to hip - hop and i LOVE THIS

[TreesOfBaylor]

the old rotating stage from the astrodome.

[purefun2006]

This is one of his best songs ever.I could listen to it everyday.

[WildBluebonnet]

King George.

[1OLDWAC]

i loe this man and this song

[imztbone]

Yes George is awesome. Can he be more awesome? Absolutely. That would be if he wrote his own songs.

[buddyeagle]

Great video, got to lluv it.

[ichellemay123]

@ chcot - not the worst thing that could happen, right?? I'd vote for him!

[tempie2000]

Visited Texas in the early nineties and heard this on the car radio as we were driving to Amarillo... just as the sun was coming up... a truly surreal experience. The song stayed with me ever since.

Had the pleasure of meeting George in concert in Corpus Christi with backstage tickets (due to my friends knowing his road manager). A true gent... still play his music back in the UK. Baby Blue, You'll Be There and I Cross My Heart, being some of the best.

[guzrod1973]

Fell in love with a cowgirl yet it was a one way street . Thanks to you Yvette I listen to the 80s country music.

[gustavito1966]

one of the best country singersssssss!!!!

[fuzzydizzle]

theee best

[rater900]

This song makes me cry becuse all the rodeo i've been to and stuff I went trough.

[rjasin123]

the best country singer of the modern age

[TheTaylorBritain]

Country Music is great I love it

[lunajessica123]

my uncle used to play this song . thats where i became to be a singer.

my uncle was and is my best friend. ill never forget that man.

george straight, you rock---------

[hemitime03]

George is the last of the singing cowboys, literally.Chris Ledoux died not long ago and that leaves George. He's more than real and i grew up 40 miles from him.

[CptSmokeyTX]

hell yeah man, I have lived within 20 miles of this man my whole life!

[hemitime03]

Awesome where you from.

[CptSmokeyTX]

Boerne Tx man, 30 miles north of SA. A good buddy of mines dad, in elementary school. Is Georges roping partner also

[binka21]

you lie your ass off too

[etxbuckman19]

This was the first George Strait concert I ever attended. I remember at the time he was pretty sick with a cold or something but you'd never have known it by his performance. He sounded great. Still does. Long live REAL country music!

[pinkblu14]

He's so HOT!!!Love this song!!!

[efulmer30]

i love this song

were did all te cowboys go

the real ones

[plus2289]

i was listening to some country music the other day and some guy ask me if i wanted him to play some strait. i told him that theres no other way that i know of to listen to country music

[nerdgant]

that fiddle sounds so sharp in this song...just wonderful!

[SUNSNARE06]

@nerdgant

Thats Gene Elders, he is a classicaly trained violinist in addition to playing mandolin and fiddle with George, he has a music degree too, but its in percussion and he also is a great jazz player

[DB57018]

This is the ULTIMATE George Strait song. Nothing will ever top this song.

[jlescelius]

big 10-4 ! He has the best fiddle player I have ever heard

[EcstaticMomentz]

This is one of the

PRETTIEST SONGS in the WORLD

About Love & mistakes & Remorse & Pain

It TEARS me up EVERY TIME ~

[chcot]

He should run for governor!

[islandguy911]

@chcot George is too honest and for the little man to work with all those lying cheating dishonest Governor's!! maybe the next JFK. he would be every bit as good for the common man as John was. God bless this great superstar. there is only one George Strait

[MrHardcorecountry]

@chcot no he should run for president

[grenadeserenade]

@chcot Texas will need a new governor when Rick Perry becomes president next year.

[rockerstar1000]

even when This AWESOME man is Sick He still WOWS a crowd. I love him sooo much and i hope to get to go to his concert one day. He just get better with age He was really sick there and look at how well he performed That Is DEDICATION! BUT THATS JUST HOW GEORGE STRAIT IS .........WHAT CAN I SAY LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
