Three people I have seen live and know for a fact put on a hell of a show are Jamey, Justin Moore, and Randy Houser, but out of all of them, Jamey was the best. He was just so amazing.
i was there when the red red headed stranger changed the whole dam world Waylon, Wille and me! outlaw music! Jamie you bringing it back son just keep on keeping on1
Jamey...i raise my glass to you brother...there aint many people tryin to keep the old TRUE country music alive but thanks to you brother...itll be around hopefully another decade!
I won't waste anyone's time giving my opinion on how unbelievable this musician is...........I AM FAR MORE HAPPY THAT HE HAS ACHIEVED THE SUCCESS HE DESERVES in this day and time. I honestly wouldn't have believed it if i didn't see it. Gives me at least a lil hope for this country yet!
this is probably the best version of this song I've ever heard...and I thought Tim McGraw's version was ok...this sent chills down my back that was AWESOME!
I absolutely love Jamey Johnson. If there was one artist that one had to pick to listen to for the rest of their days it would be Jamey Johnson for me!!! He is so talented and I am so happy that I stumbled across his work while I was supporting the Marine Corps at Quantico, Virginia.
I just recently discovered this guy. I have not been very impressed with the watered down, commercialized crap that's been coming out of Nashville the last 20 plus years, and when I heard "In Color" for the first time, I fell in love with country music all over again. This man is everything that I remember country music to be when I was growing up in the 70's and 80's. It's a damn shame there's not more like him out there!!!
me personally i thank that jamey is the new age david alan coe and he is bringin back the older country insted of the pop that all these panzie ass punks are brangin to tha table and there really aint to many people that can pull this song off other than mr coe himself GOD BLESS JAMEY JOHNSON, DAVID ALAN COE AND TEXAS COUNTRY MUSIC
Jamey I hope you know that you are changing music in a good way. It has been a long time coming. To much POP in country music. thank you for singing about the way I live my life.
Dear Vevo, Let me start by sayin get your corporate asses off youtube! Ever since these big companies started paying off youtube so they could post their friggin videos we can't post ours. We are flagged for infringement evry time we include a song we like in our videos.
This is YOUtube, the place where we can post OUR videos. If we wanted to listen to music from you wed go to your damn website.
To people who want greedy corporates gone thumbs up and copy and paste this on Vevo shit
p.s. I never said Jamey Johnson sucks, he is actually quite good, I just do not believe he is the end all be all of real country, and there are other people out there that have been playing real country for years that people like you don't know about because you do not know about anything that is not played on the radio.
Writing songs for other people is not a problem, writing songs for Music Row is, that is the point, And if you are comparing this guy to Johnny Cash you are the asshole not me, You have no fucking clue what real country is if you think Trace Adkins has any merit whatsoever, Jamey Johnson is what Nashville is feeding you idiots, they dont want people to listen to Hank III and Wayne Hancock because they openly say how Nashville sucks
@severevoid Whoa! The authority on country music has arrived! Not that this argument is even worth the time, but I will entertain you once more. First off, stop being a keyboard warrior. Nothing tough about typing. I'm from Louisiana. West Monroe to be exact if you would like to get tough. Now that we are past that, Seeing as how Jamey Johnson had to release his own album in 2002 "They call me Country" because Nashville wanted nothing to do with him.
@severevoid Then when he was dropped from BNA in '06 he refused to write another album with ANY outside input. He subsequently went on to write "The Lonesome Song" and self release it on the internet. Only then did Mercury pick it up. He had two other inquiries prior to Mercury, but they wanted to "adjust" some things. He refused. Mercury said they liked it "as is" so he went with them. Of course I am not saying that he is Johnny Cash, I was merely referencing how long songwriting has gone
@severevoid on in country music. Have you ever stopped to consider that maybe if everyone else is actually informed about what they are speaking on and they differ from your opinion that it may just be you that is the idiot? Hank III is okay, but he's not Jamey. Just like Hank wasn't Waylon. One doesn't have to suck for the other to be good.
Jamey Johnson is new outlaw music,.You can put him in the same category as Waylon Jennings,Willie Nelson,Hank William's Jr, And David Allen Coe,and If That Ain't Country I'll Kiss Your A**
Jamey Johnson is pure old school country. You will never hear many of his songs on the radio. All the songs he wrote for people were just to get his foot in the door. He has paid his dues and he will be doing things his way from now on. As you can tell from his new album. He ain't scacrificing anything, this is pure country, real country through and through. This is what its all about. Screw all the crap on the radio, I'm sick of popcountry. He takes me back to when we were still unknown.
son, THIS is country musack!!! fuck everything that comes out of 95.5, 97.9, 103.3 and everything else out of "Nashville"... I am born and raised Nashville Tn and was raised on Waylon, Willie, Merle and the possum. this is the savior of REAL country music, the way it ought to be. SEMPER FIDELS to you my Marine Corps brother! i will see you with Kid Rock on the 18th My friend and we will do many jager shots son!!!!
there exists a problem in music today and the cause is Music Row and you are either a part of the cause or the solution. Guys who are very talented like Jamey Johnson writing songs for Nashville douche bags like Trace Adkins are contributing to the decline of the great form of art that is country music. Nashville is turning country into pure shit. Someone like Hank Williams III who is country music's genuine savior doesn't waste his talent writing songs for Music Row, he tells them to fuck off!!
@severevoid Funny, this is exactly the same thing people said about Hank Jr. when he first started. Listen to the story behind Honky Tonk Badonkadonk as Jamey tells it. That song with him singing it is as country as they come. Just cause Trace popped it up doesn't mean that Jamey Johnson is any less for it.
@severevoid Also ALL of the old Country singers wrote songs for other people (Ever here of Chris Kristoferson?) Jamey Johnson still plays the small bars and songwriters' conventions because he believes in them even though (unlike Hank III) he can sell out stadiums. Give me a break. The problem with country music exists with people like you who don't have a clue as to what they are talking about. I guess Johnny Cash was a "Douche Bag" for writing and singing other people's songs too.
this is a David Allen Coe song he is country, Jamey Johnson has some good stuff but lets not forget he wrote honkeytonk badonkadonk, I can't respect a guy as real country that is responsible for that piece of crap, songs like that are what is wrong with country today. You want real country try Hank III, Wayne Hancock, Justin Townes Earle etc
@severevoid the reason jamey johnson sold honky tonk badonkadonk is because he didnt want to be known as that guy....jamey johnson is saving country music....the problem with you narrow minded idiots is just what you said...you cant respect a guy who is (responsible) for a song like that...that song is awesome...its not traditional and instead of wasting your time complaining about someone elses music....pick up a guitar and write your own...and if you cant then keep your thoughts to your self
This is what country music is meant to be....raw and REAL! No pretty boys up on stage attempting to bond with us country folks! Jamey doesn't need all the glitz and glam.....he's truly country!!!
Jamey Johnson is gonna be the next David Allan Coe. But I'm pretty sure Jamey won't be singing them song about sex like David Allan Coe. Jamey will be around for a long time
You know, it's funny, they call this neo-traditionalist country, but we country people call it country. Guess ya gotta be country to recognize country after all.
Everyonetime I hear this song I get chills. No matter what anyone thinks or believes, that is what country music is all about. Painting a picture and making you feel what they are singing about. Anyone could cover this song up on stage. But today, besides Coe, Jamey Johnson is the only other guy that can do that successfully. This is real country music right here. May Outlaw Country (aka Real Country Music) Live On!
no one wants to accept ( this is were country music is now) the teeny bop/pop shit ant real no one likes it unless your under 20-25 years old...damn what have we let nashville do to us... i say f**k em ..and keep on jamey..you are the reason i hate country radio because they refuse to play your music in b,ham al ..only (in color ) and it pisses me off ..keep it up....i dont need a radio on my new harley anyways...ride easy..............
there is something out there for everyone. its honestly stupid to say if your in a age group you dont like this or you like this. next time keep your comments to yourself. I seen Jamey johnson play a private show a little of 2 weeks ago and im only 23.
The reason we do not allow real country singers to become big is because today's society is based around the pop sound, instead of the real country boy sound. It's ridiculous what 'country' music has surmounted to today. I am a country girl, I was raised on real country music. I've lived on a farm since the day I was born and I was taught a hard's days work ain't never done.
This man puts on a show! When I saw Jamey with Randy Houser they totally reminded me why I still give Country music a chance, and because I am from Arkansas, they also had a fellow Arkansan, Justin Moore join them to play one of his songs, and then after Jamey's set, they played for another three hours.. You can tell Jamey plays for his joy of music, not for money, like most newer Country musicians do..
@9875a I'm also from Arkansas, but after hearing Justin Moore, I can safely say Justin Moore isn't true country. He does the same boring stuff of trying to mix Black Label Society with a damn fiddle and steel guitar and call it country. His songwriting is the boring standard of modern Nashville. There's more to Jamey Johnson than his radio hits. At least Jamey Johnson has respect for the originals. It's a shame that very few do. Hank III, Unknown Hinson, Jamey Johnson, Ryan Harmon. That's it.
Hell Yes!! Between Jamey Johnson and Eric Church they have brought back the 2000's outlaw country and kick ass every show!!! Check out my chanel for plenty of upclose live music from Eric and Jamey as well. I also have live video of Chuck Berry from just last year and plenty more adding every day Thanks all
Coe didnt write this one and does it burn anyone elses ass up like it does mine that NO one can spell his name right?!? ever?!?! its David ALLAN Coe!!!!!!!
@lwc003 Sadly you won't. All you get is the standard Nashville Trashville shit of Lady Antebellum, Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, Rascall Flats, Taylor Swift, and all that crap! Warrior Rock Radio is the only station I've heard that plays real music. Country, Rock, and everything in between. Google Warrior Rock Radio. Should bring it up.
@tyman27 David Allan Coe, George Jones, Hank Jr., Hank 3, Willie Nelson, Unknown Hinson, Merle Haggard, Charley Pride, The Oak Ridge Boys, etc. They're all still kickin. They're the best out there!
Jamey Johnson needs to go to Nashville and give out COUNTRY LESSONS. Maybe he could teach all these pussies like Aldean Chesney and Rascal Flatts what it means to play some REAL COUNTRY MUSIC. LONG LIVE OUTLAW COUNTRY. Waylon and Hank Sr would be proud
If anyone associated with Jamey Johnson ever reads these comments tell him to perform The Ride in Kansas City May 8. Long time DAC fan and would be happier than an 18 year old in a titty club if he performed this song. Jamey Johnson all the way!
everytime I see Jamey in concert I am mesmerized and feel absolutely priveledged to be in attendence.... this is real, raw, country music. They can keep the watered down mess for somebody else, I got no use for it. Looking forward to the next show
@Brills87chevy from what i hear it is either waay it is a great ong even though david alllen coe does it better an d the story is when he did it at the oprey the lights went out when he said about it s a big a hard ride and can you bend them guitar strings and its a long hard ride
"The Ride" is a song written by Gary Gentry and J.B. Detterline Jr., performed by country singer-songwriter David Allan Coe and released in 1983. The ballad tells the story of an encounter with the ghost of Hank Williams, Sr.

HA HA!!! Touch a nerve did I? Hmm Yup Yup? Keep telling urself im a wanna be...now run along in ur hybrid car u are late to that sale at bed bath and beyond...
I have very rarely seen a such a great country artist like Jamey Johnson do old covers like this and literally make them sound 20 times better than the original! I can't wait to see what music he puts out in the future on top of what he already has. He's the new face & legend in country music today, hands down.
dont say that, jamey is a badass, but ur comparing a ford focus to a gt40, waylon is the tip of the sword, jamey is tryin to restore country music, just give him the title that fits,
Damn good! Jamie's version is a keeper! He needs to record & release it to radio! You are mistaken about the songwriter credits. This song was written by: Gary Gentry.
Jennings, Jones, Coe, and a dash of Kristofferson, damn shame you won't hear him on the radio other than In Color, don't get me wrong it's a great song, but he should have at least 4 singles on that album.
Do Ya have your notepads out Nashville? Are Ya takin notes? THIS is COUNTRY MUSIC. Send Taylor, Chesney, and the Flatt boys back where they come from. This is what country radio needs !!!
taylor chesney and the flatt boys need to go over to pop cause that is what the sing about and sound like. have them leave country music alone and bring in more good ole boys like jamey
OK RETARD (taccc1977) Just so you know, this ain't his first rodeo! He's been writing and singing for years. He's paid his dues and he's moaned the blues- so sit down and get you a big ol' glass of STFU. Thank you, and have a great day!
evidently you can't read either. Let me say it again. JJ is a legendary musician and it is a wonder that he got a contract since he does not cater to mainstream music big wigs. He does his own thing and sings his own songs. Get your stuff straight .....
I just cant tell you how great it is that we got a real country artist to number one again boys. This pop country shit is a joke. Lets make sure we let the world know it by keeping this man at the top of the page!!!
I'll agree DAC did noy write the song, but he sure made it. No one could have recorded The Ride and made it their song like David did. JJ seems cool and I'd love to see him. Enjoyed the video.
DAC is one of my favorite REAL counrty singers of all time but when my cousin opened for Trace Adkins a couple years ago he sang The Ride. I can't hardly even listen to anyone else singing it, even David Alan Coe. It was absolutely amazing. He spent 6 years in Nashville, cut a few albums, and got kicked to the curb. We wrote a few songs that were sold but besides that, its a shame he got out of it. Him and Jamey Johnson are a lot alike. Country music needs more like them.

There's more to Jamey Johnson than his radio hits. At least Jamey Johnson has respect for the originals. It's a shame that very few do. Hank III, Unknown Hinson, Jamey Johnson, Ryan Harmon. That's it.

@lwc003 Sadly you won't. All you get is the standard Nashville Trashville shit of Lady Antebellum, Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, Rascall Flats, Taylor Swift, and all that crap! Warrior Rock Radio is the only station I've heard that plays real music. Country, Rock, and everything in between. Google Warrior Rock Radio. Should bring it up.

Jamey Johnson needs to go to Nashville and give out COUNTRY LESSONS. Maybe he could teach all these pussies like Aldean Chesney and Rascal Flatts what it means to play some REAL COUNTRY MUSIC. LONG LIVE OUTLAW COUNTRY. Waylon and Hank Sr would be proud

If anyone associated with Jamey Johnson ever reads these comments tell him to perform The Ride in Kansas City May 8. Long time DAC fan and would be happier than an 18 year old in a titty club if he performed this song. Jamey Johnson all the way!

I have very rarely seen a such a great country artist like Jamey Johnson do old covers like this and literally make them sound 20 times better than the original! I can't wait to see what music he puts out in the future on top of what he already has. He's the new face & legend in country music today, hands down.

I'll agree DAC did noy write the song, but he sure made it. No one could have recorded The Ride and made it their song like David did. JJ seems cool and I'd love to see him. Enjoyed the video.
bwg052063 2 years ago
DAC is one of my favorite REAL counrty singers of all time but when my cousin opened for Trace Adkins a couple years ago he sang The Ride. I can't hardly even listen to anyone else singing it, even David Alan Coe. It was absolutely amazing. He spent 6 years in Nashville, cut a few albums, and got kicked to the curb. We wrote a few songs that were sold but besides that, its a shame he got out of it. Him and Jamey Johnson are a lot alike. Country music needs more like them.
