  • 1 hit wonder

  • This is probably the only country song I'll ever listen to, great song =]

  • p.s i always cry wen i here it

  • this song reminds me and my cousins :* ) we always are mean to each other lol :) im always there for him though soemthing happened on christmas and i cant talk to them no more :(

  • My sister, Karla passed away in the hospital while this video was playing. October 2009. Everytime I hear the song or see the video, I think of her. Thank you Jamey for giving my family and my sister In Color at that moment in time.

  • Everybody whos goin to hip hop, rap and all that other bull shit is losin touch with there roots

  • yea jamey comes closest to real country

  • My favorite song ever :)

  • what happened to this? why is it all lil wayne and eminem? thats not music, thats a guy talking (mainly cussing) to a beat put together by a machine

  • When Jamey sang the song he wrote for George Strait (Give it Away),i'll be the first one to admit i felt Jamey sang it better.In Color has to be one of the greatest songs,if not the best i've heard in a long time. 90 people don't understand the lyrics or they just don't belong here in the USA!

  • (so)

  • Im in 8th grade now but about two years ago or both my grandpa's passwd away one of em I know for sure was in WWII the other, dont have a clue

  • favorite song<3

  • "like a couple of kids just trying to save each other" is my favorite line; it's so powerful<3

  • no..... they can see , just afraid to admit that this song touches them. Maybe worried someone will think that they care about something.

  • Such a beautiful song.

  • 90 people are deaf..... and color blind

  • 90 people dont know that black and white pics exist

  • 90 people dont see color

  • randpa just passed :( RIP

  • Jamey sounds a lot like Anthony Smith to me. I really like them both. :-)

  • Goodbye Grampa, I miss you

  • love this song!!!!!

    

  • This is my favorite song.

  • @andrewashby78 same

  • this is my favorite song

  • My Best friend just died last night, I used to listen to this song with him everyday and we sang it word for word. Damn how much i miss him already.

    February 10, 1993 - January 21, 2012. Rest in Peace Danny

    I love you kid

  • @RhymeEEZii hey i am very sorry for yo loss i have loss won too in 2011 i know it sucks

  • @RhymeEEZii I know thats is so tough on you, I hope you know he is in a better place where he will always be safe. God bless you my friend.

  • Decade ago? Carbon leaf released that song in late 2006. Johnsons song came out about a year later. In color is about a whole life not just about the war like carbon leafs is. To suggest johnson had even heard of this other group much less new their material is idiotic. Who has even heard of carbon leaf? I'm a huge music fan and I had to look them up.never heard of them. Their stuff is totally forgettable elevator music.

  • Best song ive ever heard!

  • you see the dislike button?

    yeah me either.

  • This is the best song anyone has wrote in the last 20 years maybe more.

  • @seymourbbest even though it is exactly like "the war was in color" by carbon leaf that came out like a decade ago?

  • @joegibbskins Are you a reh-tard or just plain stupid? No one even knows who carbon leaf is. I had to know who you were talking about. In 5 seconds found the song wasn't even out until 2007. Can you count? Do you know a decade is 10 years? Carbon Leaf's lyrics say a blue star is traded for gold. That's The Medal of Honor & it is gold & wouldn't be pawned away like trash. Them saying a soldier would do that makes me disgust them more. Go smoke some more dope & get stupider.Tally ho!

  • That must suck trying to explain to someone that was born after color photos were made what it was like in black in white.

  • I love it how the when the majority of us talk about our Grand-Pa's we add in that they were in WWII. This song puts me in their perspective, Perfect example how music can get you. Thank you Jamey :-)

  • @BaSSbrEAd1983 Sorry for the grammer error on my comment. I was a little buzzed when I wrote this. I'm sure yall understand.

  • I'm a huge fan of rap, metal, rock, and dubstep but this song is just magic.

  • country music at its best and as it was intended

  • <3

    

  • The best country song of the '00s.

  • You know, coming from a rapper...This is one of my favorite country songs

  • country music the way it was intended....Love it....

    

  • im about to cry!!!!!!

  • love this song!!

    

  • real country music

  • this song is the best one tht he has

    

  • Comment removed

  • @dmcubfan I think they co-wrote it. Absolutelt KILLER song, either way! BTW, Otto KILLS live!

  • @thescoundrel1 *absolutely*

  • oops! song writer.

  • in my opion jamey is the most talented singer sing wtiter country music has had in a long time. thumbs up if you agree.

  • @ndcarter01 The comment would be great if you weren't asking for likes.

  • hows there only 5 million views oh yeah cause all the kids in 8th grade and most teens a have there head up lil waynes ass

  • @kayakfishin4life thats right. can't stand that rap fucking trash. its worthless if you cant even understand what they are saying. he did you know someone people want country music banned? because all we sing about is drinking and fat wifes. what is rap about?: smoking weed, shooting, 40 oz alchol drinks and sex. so does anyone else agree with this guy?

  • @sniperNghillie97 -1st----yea there is a lot of rap out there that is complete trash. I rly don't get y people like to listen to it considering they're talking abt what would b to most a fantasy life. They just talk about how they can get just about any girl they want, do any drug they want(if you do any), buy w/e they want, they talk abt how lavishly they're living, abt how they're better than u etc. The funny thing is the people that listen to this garbage are usually poor. or rich kids--cont-

  • @sniperNghillie97-2nd---y poor people listen to it I'll nvr know, y ne1 would want to listen to a retard "rap" abt constantly having so much $ and ur broke just doesn't make sense. Then the rich kids that get their $ from their parents. Wow isn't that kid "cool"! Egotistical bc he's got more $ money than others, and acting like he's "ballin" when he doesn't do a fkn thing for it. What a douche! Tbh it's kinda obvious most people that listen to this shit r not the sharpest knife n the drawer-cont

  • @sniperNghillie97-3rd---I believe that most people listen 2 this trash 2 look "cool" as well, n 2 fit n. I rly don't get y some people look at the image of the "musician" and how trendy they r instead of actually just listening 2 the music they put out. It's quite sad mainstream rap has taken the direction it has It rly makes me lose hope n humanity. I guess people just care 2 much abt what others think of them. Nobody is independent anymore, they let others do their thinking 4 them.--cont--

  • @sniperNghillie97-4th---If my generation doesn't change soon this country is going to shit. People are blank mindless fools.The same goes for country music as well, usually mainstream country, but there's mainstream country that addresses real problems and has real meaning to the songs. Every genre has their norms, but rap has gone way too far. Idk if u like rap/hip-hop, but don't let this shit like gucci mane turn u away from it. There's some rap out there that is rly innovative---cont---

  • See the dislike bar? Neither do I. Brilliant, brilliant country song, maybe the best written song in the last decade.

  • im a metalhead, but i just love this song!

  • Im a niggaa and this is my fav song

  • We are ALL without color, we are american's first and foremost, leave everything else out and we the people of America will rise above ALL ..... Color was NOT an issue on 9/11 ... and NEVER should be!

  • Remember that September morn, everyone was GRAY from the dust of someone trying to hurt us!

  • i know im stating the obvious but the only reason this song has so many views is because it was on the radio... for all the people who dont really know who this guy is listen to more of his songs this guy has so much talent. 

  • epic!!!

    

  • my heart pours out for this song!!! so much meaning!!!!

  • 88 people dont understand GREAT music

  • This song is so meaningful! <3

    

  • 88 people can go F**K themselves!!!!!

  • my favorite song of all time.

  • Somewhere to someone this song is there story to the people that disliked this. Its not about who's singing it or the tempo of the song its about the words an what it meens to you.

  • I guess the people that disliked it are deaf!!

  • 87 people have never seen a color photograph.

  • 86 people are pathetic

  • Should of seen that shit in color !!!

  • Most excellent. Our musical heritage is being slowly lost. This is awesome, thanks Mr. Johnson!

  • @ErikWyx I've seen this man twice in concert, both times in Nashville. He is everything that his albums and his videos seem to make him out to be. This song means the world to me. Me and my boys listent to it when we are driving out to the lake to go fishing. We sing it to the top of our lungs. Me and their mom divorced almost two years ago now and they stay with her most of the time now. This song brings me to my knees most times.

  • Jamey, this is the story of my Grandpa's life too, thank you for putting it into words as nobody else could. He was raised through the depression as poor as dirt, fought in the European theater in WW2, and was married for half a century before dying at 78 in 2001. The story of his life was recorded in black and white.

  • sorry, that would be whole picture. couldn't figure out how to edit through the tears :)

  • I close my eyes and see this song play out in the lives of my grandparents and my father and mother. No song has ever been this visual for me. I have felt deep emotion from other artists but this song is the how "picture". Memories, good and bad, tears, good and bad. Life is black and white until you explain it and then you see the color.
