  • The last week has been the hardest week of my life. I had a mental breakdown and tried to kill myself. But it's the few good moments like right now, listening to this song, that give me the strength to keep going. I just hope Willie knows how much good he does in the world.

  • Hello Everyone!

    It’s Music that’s keeping me alive.

    My life is so difficult and the only thing to forget my problems is the Music.

    All of you will think I’m crazy but you’re wrong

    Because singing and writing I can be who really I am.

    I’m so grateful because now I can smile, dreaming, screaming. (And I owe it all to music and to god)

    Well, I made some covers and I just upload it to my channel and I’ll be grateful if you stop by my channel and check it out.

    Thank you so much!!

  • exemplary, yet,.. truly original.

    sweet.

  • Thanks Willie... for this, that, and everything else. Much love

  • the best peice of advice came from this man,"leave off going to a festival for ten years" and juz LOOK at what the modern day festival has become,fuckn dire man.WTFG Willie Sah *tips hat*

  • I have an appreciation for people like Willie Nelson that don't bend to mainstream. He doesn't try to be something he's not just to be mainstream or sell stuff. When older artists try to sound "current" is when they end up losing their credibility. Older artists should be able to make the deepest, most honest music with how much life they lived and they deserve respect for it not the, "They need to quit making music, because I'm young and don't get it or its behind the times."

  • super

  • that is the kind of live I want to life.

    

  • ANYONE THAT DON'T LIKE WILLIE MUST BE NUT'S. HE'S A WONDERFUL SINGER SONG WRITTER & JUST LIVES LIFE THE WAY HE WANTS. I'VE LOVED HIS TUNES SINCE I WAS YOUNG & I'M 53yrs OLD SO WHEN YOU LIVE THE LIFE HE HAS PERFORMING FOR ALL THE GREAT CAUSES TO HELP OUT IF YOU KNOCK THAT THEN TALK TO GOD CAUSE WE ALL HAVE TO FACE HIM 1 DAY. WILLIE YOU STILL ROCK & YOUR VOICE HASN'T CHANGED SO YOU GOT IT STILL GOING ON. LOVE YOU & GOD BLESS YOU..

  • @MrTommyheddenstomboy rock on brother your 53 yrs young. im 35 years young ive been listening to willie since i was 4

  • God this is awful! I like Willie but, this is so lifeless and, what the hell is that Texas boy doing in Kingstown anyway? Almost as bad as that stint with Julio.

  • Willie does it all. Praise Jah..

  • so smoking weed is horrible look at this guy hes 78 years old still doing great hes a great guy

  • @LeeLeefritz93 This is 2011,It has been scientifically proven that marijuana has medical properties that improve your health. It should be legal and be accessible through a health store but at the very least should be a schedule 2 drug

    Schedule 2 = have medical properties such as Opium and are only accessible by prescription

    only .

    Schedule 1 = No medical value and harmful to your health which marijuana currently falls under.

    This should be declared unconstitutional. Some people need it

  • i meant to spell it "write" and yes i know he didnt write this song, but he does write very good music.

    thank you willie nelson!

  • last time i seen willie was at the nascar races here in texas, and he sung this , it was badass live...

    keep smokin willie, that shit is still helpin u right some dam good music :)

  • Well he has done it. Hit after hit keeps on coming. They can't keep

    "The Red Headed Stranger" down for long.

    I know, I know..... I'v seen the movie.

  • I love Willie Nelson an all but NO ONE can replicate this song and should even try... It's Jimmy's end of story!!!

  • i love willie, he and kris kristofferson are the last 2 highway men left.

    Pray every day they live 4 ever!

  • @lil6469 May they live for another houndred years!

  • definetly my latest favourite song, can't wait to see the movie

  • Wow Willie! Well done.

  • CAN YOU IMIGINE what the price will be.......for that legend guitar....from a legend that nerver will go away?

  • @zzoppsme Couple of million. There was a guitarist that Jimmy Page signed. It was worth so much that it became priceless.

  • @7drift0king2 so true...but this one guitar is probable the most regonised instrument in the WHOLE WORLD..

  • @zzoppsme ...I just wonder if Lucille would say so.

  • @zzoppsme i think he will be buried with it i dont think he would ever sell it

  • Fuck you sharmon for your add thata my mams song

    

  • Always good to see the Maestro at work. No Willie-recording without Mickey on harmonicas, too. Saw Willie LIVE many times, at one point even even 3 times the same week: Amsterdam, Groningen and in a German Truckerpark (forgot the town).

    Carlos Santana is right too: Willie IS standing at the crossroads of every musical direction. (Ofcourse this great song is written by Jimmy Cliff, credit where it's due!!) Love and peace and hope to all of you. The Doc

  • @ExpatBlues

    Haha, Dutch too I assume?

    I do have a question though, how is Willie on the "crossroads of every musical direction"? :S

    I like the guy (or at least, the 2 songs I've heard so far to be more honest...) but I don't see how that comment's true.

  • @Israelpwn YEP, Dutch too:)) about your question: He IS standing at the crossroads.. because he CAN play EVERYTHING. Or even better maybe is this statement by Emmylou Harris: "if America only had one voice, it would be Willie's "

    Carlos Santana made for Willie's 'Revolution's of Time'-CD-box: "Willie Nelson's impact on american music is indelible. He stands at the crossroads.... and colours in this country. What he reflects is true soul and sincerity. He's also a very mean guitar player."

  • @ExpatBlues

    Though he's definitely very capable of playing different styles of music, I wouldn't say he encompasses (almost) all directions. I've yet to see anything electronic, heavy (think metal), classical. Though I haven't heard enough to judge thoroughly...

    All that being said, Willie has a very odd charm about him and his music.

  • awesome video!

  • awwwwww that was so nice of Willie at the end. XD paying off those poor street kids for stealing from that lady. lol see now that is a person with a true heart. ^_^

  • mmm i love mangos :)

  • Comment removed

  • Willie Nelson is the only white man in the video lol, they sure know how to make him feel welcome :-)

  • @moh1612

    He's not white, he's Willie.

  • @moh1612 look how welcoming he was being to them XD

  • Wooow! I love it!

  • The biggest compliment you can pay to any artist is doing a cover of their song so big up Willie Nelson for bigging up the Great Jimmy Cliff

  • Praise the Lord and pass that eh???Sing til you can't Brother Willy

  • Jimmy Cliff's will always be the best but this is a good interpretation.

  • This if fcuking amazing. I never listen to Willie Nelson. But I love Joe Strummer, Jimmy Cliff and Rancid. But wow, this is great. Amazing film clip too. Beautiful.

  • my wife tells me i'm addicted to willie. I just can't get enough of his music. Constantly and effortlessly reinventing himself. loved your concert last year in Killarney, Ireland. I hope there is a lot more milage left in you.

    John. Dingle. Ireland

  • Hear me out. Do many young people start listening to Willie because he's a pot aficionado?

    Of course, Willie's musical talent makes people keep listening to him.

    Thank you Willie!

  • @mohinderbauer

    I'm young and I love Willie Nelson. I love Merle Haggard and Loretta Lynn, don't forget Carole King and the legendary JOHN PRINE. But I also love Ice Cube, Offspring, Sublime, Blondie, Ray Charles, Akon, Wierd Al, Marley, Zepplein, Buck 65, Seatbelts, White Stripes, Utada Hikaru, Alison Krauss, Bob Dylan, Beethoven... I could go on... Old Country, Rap, Hip Hop, Blues, Classical, Pop, Ska, Jazz, Rock... Anything but New Country and Techno... 4 me, it has nothin to do with drugs

  • @loneamaruq WE have similar tastes. It's good to know people recognize Weird Al as both a comedian AND a musician.

  • @mohinderbauer im young, i like some of his music

  • "I'd rather be a free man in my grave,then living as a puppet or a slave" One of my favorite lines.

  • delightful video!

    i love loving both of these versions

  • Hi Willie Love U you are the best you have a great head for business I love your truckstop also my wheres Willie shirt

  • I had my guitar in Jamaica and all anyone wanted to hear was Willie and Bob. Shoulda moved there when I had the chance.

  • The lyrics and video have a great message.

  • Willie you are a bad ass :)

  • keep fighting for the things you want, Willie! the officers are trying to keep you down!

  • I love when music breaks into different genres, epecially when it is Willie Nelson...

  • Brilliant version, Willie!

  • The coolest old dude on the planet! They sure as hell broke the mould when they made him. Never will be another Willie Nelson...

  • proof by a wise guy: black + white creates colours

  • Comment removed

  • jerry band rocks this one too

  • i dont know why exactly why, but it brings tears to my eyes,, maybe cuz im from Texas and listen to Rasta Music, and Willie Just Kills it on this video, and alot of everything else he is doing these days, Rebel Music! & he took it RASTA! Get it WILLIE! I will see u at the Puyallop Fair this year! it would make my WORLD if u sang this particular song! Mad RESEPC Jimmy!

  • @350zr2 wow, that was deep

  • @TheDesertsItalian

    I agree

  • i likie like this song it's nice:D or lovely :D:D pure greatness:D:D:D

  • Trigger is Willie's auto-biography

  • @ofmenandpigg If that guitar could talk

  • @TheDesertsItalian Just look at it man, all the damage from years of Willie using a pick on him, all the people who have met Willie and signed his guitar, all the places its been

  • @ofmenandpigg Exactly. I hear it's going into the smithsonian museum or somthing like that

  • @TheDesertsItalian IT BETTER BE

  • @ofmenandpigg I would want it personally, i'd take good care of trigger, haha

  • Amazing cover!!! Now I just have to find the MP3 of this song :)

  • "jah live" on the cart at the beginning =)

  • Fuck off asshole

  • Willie is and always will be the biggest badass ever!

    i don't like country music much at all but iv loved Willie since i was born

  • bravo. i now have a new favorite Willy Nelson song. Tip of the hat to Jimmy Cliff and Happy Birthday Willy.

  • I think Jimmy Cliff would support this version.

  • roots and Willie.

  • I dig the effort and general vibe. Like, I dig Willie and how he just plays what he wants to, even if a lot of times it's a little weird.. but I don't like this version anywhere neeear as much as Jimmy's.

  • beautiful!

  • isnt he in half baked

  • ya'll shold watch the movie, jimmy cliff, "The harder they come" . its the shizl
