  • Herroh!

  • clip clop clip clop..... love it.

  • People may think this is my great great uncle. I didnt really know him but I do know his brother Frank horton and hes about 90 years old

  • He is one of my favourites--pure country singing, no frills, straight from the heart, yet lyrical

  • Nostalgi. Janne 78 yer.

    Sweden

  • We played this song over and over on are drive to Skagway Alaska. What a great trip!

  • I'm going to have to watch the movie (again).

  • Be true...my uncle played this song when I was a kid...late seventies...I loved it and still do...couldn't wait to have my year of '93 either...proud to be an Aussie but love America...

  • @dustybackroads, I think that's a great name.

  • Wow, I've always loved this song and The Battle of New Orleans. Thanks for the history of the songs appearing on the charts and Horton's death. Bummer, but he left us something to listen to forever.

  • one of my all time farorites. i never get bored with it i listen to it over and over and over its wonderful.....

  • I love IT!!!! that's all Igot to say about that!!!! jim walker

  • I DID AS THOMAS C WHAT A HOOT

  • @duke3632

    YEAH WHAT A HOOT.

  • He is the greatest even though he is gone i will always enjoy his music

  • I have always enjoyed Johnny Horton

  • Johnny Horton was a great singer. It's to bad that he was killed in that car wreak. We sure don't have singers like him anymore.

  • Awesome song.Like the stereo!

  • Living it today in Fairbanks. North To Alaska go north the RUSH is ON!

  • Hank Williams dies in a car accident. Johnny Horton marries his widow. Johnny Horton dies in a car accident. Too weird, eh?

  • great song

  • he died way to young.. he was great!

  • Big sam and George Pratt stay at Sarah Palins house when they're up in Alaska prospectin'. Her husband sleeps on the couch or stays at the Motel 6.

  • North to Alaska, that's Sarah Palin's home.

  • great tune

  • thanks. for posting!

  • What an awesome recording!! Brilliant song.

  • This is such an awesome song---------even sounds great today!  It was used recently in the opening episode of "Big Love" season 5 (HBO). We lost a truly great talent when he left us at such an early age, in 1960. I hope his songs will continue to be used in more movies/T.V. series, etc. We miss you Johnny!

  • love it...nostalgia :)

  • That bass just gets me - what a great way to begin a song - nothing like the noise they try to foist off on us these days. Thanks Johnny & RIP.

  • This is a really good video . I like the pictures of the duke in it . Thanks for posting it .

  • I had no idea that Johnny Horton was killed by a drunk driver. Of course I've heard of Buddy Holly's airplane crash numerous times but this is the first time I've heard of Mr Horton's sad twist of fate.

  • Nice song and video... Sad that the singer died so young and at the height of his fame...
