  • A classic...both the track and Willie. And finally a song with "blue eyes." God bless ya, Willie !

  • 2:09 slickest lead guitar ending statement ever?

  • Willie played that same guitar so much he's wore a hole in it.

  • No other voice like his! Peace

  • my blue eyes are crying in the rain....

  • @rtbabydoll9 amen to that willie sings it the best out of anyone

  • I'm not even much of a country music fan. I listen to R&B mostly, but Willie is AWESOME.

  • oh my sweet son, i miss you

  • I love you, Willie.

  • @ftryew Well don't listen.. nothing more simple.

  • Lovely! As a jazzman, I love Willie's solos: simple but full of meaning and feeling. And what about his false modulation at about 2:09: he appears to change key but ends up in the same key he started in (E natural.)!

  • @lesterwyoung

    Great call about the 2:09 "change" ! He is a master of the understated guitar solo in my book.

  • My Grandpa just passed away. When we wheeled him to his hospital bed... he didn't want to get put in bed yet... because the knew it would be the last time... so we put on his own accordion music. The song "blue eyes cryin' in the rain came on. He smiled when he hadn't in so long... and but his arms out like he was playing the accordion to it. I had never known the lyrics to this song. i just knew the melody because he played it so many times. But... the lyrics are so fitting. beautiful.

  • @ohhyea09 that's so sweet

  • Sorry,Hank, Willie is the best!

    

  • wouldn't you think that the man, or one of his friends, would buy him a new guitar, one without a hole worn through the top? Still, it's a great rendition of Rose's 'Blue Eyes..'

  • @kanakaken ............. you gotta be kidding??? right?? there aint another guitar in the world that has had as much whiskey near it as Trigger........... first time I ever saw Willie in concert.... there was only a wear mark there....... that was most of 40 years ago........... get some coffee... or whatever

  • No, Fred Rose wrote this but Willie didn't write You were always on my mind, either but he does both of them as well as they can be done...Willie is great...

  • He didn't write this but it's one of my favorites he sings

  • When I was stationed in Iraq, the locals would try and talk to use but most of us don't speak English, but they would say "WIllie Nelson" With a big smile on there face.

  • Damn. I'm not even a country fan but you can't help but like Willie.

  • I had a huge crush on Willie Nelson when I was like 16. There was always his voice, that harmonica, and his voice that drew me to him..He had such a lovely guitar sound. Unlike I'd ever heard. I was always mezmerized by him.

  • Hes still a sexy old man. xD
