  • Wonderful. Song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • they made country music like hollywood and they ruin it screw all u ass holes in nashville,hope u choke long live the real country music the mountain music

  • great tune,but those of us who still listen to todays country stations are guilty.if you buy one of these pop country cds you are guilty

  • Awesome video. Thank you for sharing !

  • The best one from George Strait & Alan Jackson .

  • Hey y'all! I love this song, but I have one small comment about it. There is more to country music than drinkin' an' cheatin' songs! Thumbs up if you agree. This should be a top comment!

  • 18 People knew the murderer.

  • Two of my TOP FAVE Country singers!!!

  • Zac Brown isn't country

  • Zac Brown isn't country. Sorry!!!!

  • Zac Brown Band is an exception for rather new country artists who actually play country music and can ACTUALLY SING!

  • Zac Brown Band is an exception!

  • george straight and allan jackson  the best there is

  • 18 people want to murder country music's ghost. That is, what's left of it.

  • @mountainkittycat Who were  those 18 people, I'd like to know who they are.

    They sure messed up Country music, I'd like to tell them so. Why can't they have both and leave country alone?

  • @augustasongs1 I know. I'm not one of them! I LOVE country music. LIVE FOREVER COUNTRY MUSIC! I'm glad to know there's still some people out there who agree with me and like REAL country music. Thanks for the support. Country music needs it. Let's work to keep it alive!!!

  • @mountainkittycat Merl Kilgore said several years ago there was one man who started getting away from country, I'd like to know who it was and kick his BUTT.

    Thanks for the reply, how can I help keep it alive? I buy and listen to all the good Country music. This years American Idol winner should tell everyone something (THAT AMERICA STILL LIKE COUNTRY.) I've heard that radio stations said they were NOT going to play Scotty's songs,everyone stop listening those stations.

  • @augustasongs1 First off, let's support the REAL country artists by buying their stuff. I'm not a super big fan of the new country folks, though a couple of them I do like. Here is some artists who, in my opinion, sing true country: George Strait, Alan Jackson, George Jones, umm.... Nobody new.... there's more. My mind is going blank right now. I don't listen to George Jones cause' I cry enough with other music. If you ever get a chance, stand up for REAL country music!

  • @mountainkittycat I thought thats what I said I was doing buying and lisrening to the

    REAL country music. I tell everyone theres nothing like Country Music.

    Country music songs writers, write a story and the singers is suppose to sing it with feeling and most if not all do. These new singers just yell and if there is a story there one never knows what it is, so much crap is going on around them you cant tell if they can sing or not.( Alan, Grorge J, G Strait, True Country

  • @augustasongs1 That's good. I just bought some George Strait albums. I'll listen to that song and let you know. Thanks. I like Randy and Josh too. Especially Josh even though he's new. I am not to big of a fan of Scotty, but some of his songs I like. Josh is country. Thanks again!

  • @mountainkittycat I also like Randy Travis, and a newer singer Josh Turner.

    Listen to him sing "Your Man" if thats not Country I don't know what is.

    Scotty who won the American Idol this year can sing true country too.

    I write COUNTRY songs. Go to youtube and type in "Heavens So Far Away"

    it's the one about 911, 4:11 min. long see if thats country enough for you.

    It's not George S. or George J. singing it, but this guy sings COUNTRY.

  • @mountainkittycat If you will send me your e-mail address I will send you the song

    I'm talking about. I thought I saw on your site where you tried to listen to "Today Reality Came Home To Me" but couldn't get it, I wrote that song too the same artist is singing

    it thats singing my other song on youtube.

  • @augustasongs1 I couldn't find either. What artist is it?

  • @mountainkittycat - go to youtube.com ,then Type in Heavens so far away

    (it's the one thats 4.17 minutes about 911)

  • @augustasongs1 That's a really nice song. It's sad too. You wrote that? It's pretty awesome and good music too!

  • @mountainkittycat Thanks, glad you liked it. I was happy to see more than 63,000

    had watched it. Did you think it was COUNTRY?

  • @augustasongs1 Sure thing! I will put that song on my favorites play list!

  • @mountainkittycat you can go to youtube.com then type in  Charley Kyles

    and find the song "Heavens so far away"

  • Comment removed

  • Yes indeed .... this song has a message that goes beyond music performances today...lots of other good things in this world have been under assault and the murder weapons are changing almost daily

  • Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood just to name 2 of the killers. Give me Allen Jackson, George Strait, George Jones etc. American Idol should be put on trial for their part in the murder of music. All music...

  • Some of us know who the killers are. It isn't the performers. Who owns the media? They own CMT and most of the record companies. They hate the America that was our heart. The truth is that most of them hate America, eespecially the America that was the heart of country. They never create anything; they just buy and sell it. Yew know who they are.

  • jason aldean, taylor swift and their types have ruined country music, this is coming from a 16 yr old

  • Looks like 15 people may have been accessories to murder on music row.

  • Thank God for Larry Cordle for writing this

  • Such a good song and so true! It is a shame that the older great country singers are a thing of the past.

  • @riv4life618 go listen to Jason boland Aaron Watson and Roger creager. Tell me what you think.

  • Man, I thought things were bad when this came out a decade ago, if I only knew how much worse it would get. Everyone that buys a Taylor Swift cd or Rascal Flatts ticket or (insert 9 out of 10 of the top "Country" acts of today here) cd should also have to watch this along with some Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, or any other Country legend. Maybe then they'd realize what they're missing. So so sad. Then we wonder why true greats like Faron Young end up the way they do. Whole thing is heartbreaking.

  • George is a timeless treasure! Great collab!

  • lay of george he is the king of country no one has done it like him and no one ever will theres a handful of true country singers left..... king george, alan jackson, eric church, jamey johnson, and rhett atkins...... period if u disagree with them being true country your clueless to what country really is and dont know a damn about the roots of country.... listen to eric church lotta boot left to feel.... thats all that haves to be said...

  • hes not gay. bunch of u butt pirates only wish. go have fun with a melting hot 4 ft rod...george is the king and always will be, scotty wont touch

  • excelente musica y musicos, me encanta el la musica country

  • GRANDIOSOS CANTANTES , LOS ADORO.

  • To bad the people who post information don't get their facts sraight before they spew garbage. Geoge Strait has been married to the same woman for many, many years AND he, along with Alan J are two of the last country musicians out there. Hats off to them for giving us this oh so true song.

  • This is the truest song ever! It is a shame what they now call country music has become.

  • This song right here tells it like it is Country music is no longer country it has turned to either pop or rock it doesn't have any heart or soul left in it I don't even watch the award shows anymore they are rewarding artists for murdering country music and it's going to keep getting worse

  • @Meljays1055 so true. Its a damn shame that real country artists dont get played anymore. Their out there we have to find them.

  • @Meljays1055 amen

  • @Meljays1055 thats my point why even can it country if you aint going to play country if you want to play pop or rock well go play that kind of music but im with you there is no heart and soul left in country music no more i wish we could have good country music and singers back

  • Have some of y'all been smoking crack??? GS is NOT gay! Y'all are smoking something to be spewing such crap!!

  • The Gospel according George.

  • I love George, I dont even care that he is gay. His music is so good it dont even matter.

  • @DrnEtn ummm....he's not.

  • @DrnEtn Yes he is just like Caseys a dyke.

  • @DrnEtn gay? George Strait? lol what a moron........... 

  • @saddletramp69 Yeah I know hes a gay moron.

  • @DrnEtn No Way is George Strit Gay

  • A great tribute to true country music. I could listen to this song for hours nd never get tired of it. Thank you so much for sharing it.

  • Where was this, is this in the oprey?

  • Country music at its best with these classics. This new shit doesn't have the heart or soul.

  • Comment removed

  • THE HONEST TO GOD`S TRUTH,HANDS DOWN OR UP HOWEVER YOU PREFER IT...

  • is it frowned upon to masterbate to this video? just need to know guys........

  • @DBMunplugged You can do just whatever you please but the fact remains that it is a true and honest song for todays Nashville scene, and yes it is a sad day for country music or lack of it.

  • this song says some very true words, but there are a few new artists who still play country like it should sound. Why can't I ever hear this on the radio?

  • Thank you Lary Cordol for the gospal truth and the two true counry legands for singing it

  • I love that George and Alan are such good friends... However, I also love how tall Alan Jackson is. It makes poor King George seem so SMALL!! It's hilarious! Either way, as a duo, they rival Brooks & Dunn.

  • KUDOS!!

  • This is as honest as it can be. I miss the group of country singers before 1995. This group that has come along in the last decade leans toward rock 'n roll. Now the 2 singing now are truly what country music should sound like. My favorite, Ricky Van Shelton, I know is retired. I sure miss him and his singing.

  • 75% of the word crap is "rap"...

  • I have never seen so many people that doesn't know what real country music is. The trash they listen to now can't be classified as music. And the worst they look on stage , the better they like it..Pure disgraceful

  • 14 dislikes. Hmmm! Must be taylor swift , Carrie Underwood and Rascal flat fans.

  • @rockytopfarm LOL i couldn't agree more!!

  • A true song if I ever heard one......thanks for sharing

  • Guud song ! :) REAL MUSIC !!!

  • Ya wanna hear the true death of country music check out a cat named Colt Ford.

    My son put his cd in yesterday in my truck...i almost threw up after about a minute! Country rap...dint a comedian have line about that a while back? Mixin country and rap what do ya get? CRAP! LOL

    I've never been a big country guy but listenin to this type of stuff Strait and Alan and the Possum tells me that i have missed alot and have some catchin up to do for sure!!!

  • @bribos99 your telling me im 15 but hell most of the modern singers suck balls. People like justin moore jamie johnson are keeping modern country alive

  • @TheShane209 You're right I'm 45 but every generation seems to have those few that hang onto the roots. That is why country music will never truly die.

  • a rare occasion to see this ...as we are subject to mainstream country music of today...where the fiddles and steel guitars are a thing of the past

  • George Strait and Allan Jackson,they"re both my favorite

  • When George is walkin to the mike he reminds me of another country music artist but i jst can't remember who....Anyways, this is an awesome clip and one of my fave songs. TY for uploading :)

  • If today's country music is "progress", then I will gladly live in the past. They couldn't have found two more true country artists to do this song!

  • 14 people are accomplices to murder.

  • Nothing could be truer than this song.

  • So true .I.v given up listening to those so called ' New Country Or Americano.Sheer rubbish.Bring back the real sound of country!

  • its true

  • Ladies, how we can stand it with those two great-looking, talented guys on stage at the same time? MMMMMM

  • Sometimes at 11:20 pm you just want to hear a real country song.

  • now this is true country music .

  • I listen to many types of music. I like to hear the difference in each Genre, country music should sound country. Oh, and when the hell did "rap" come into the picture...PLEASE!

  • AJ>GS

  • To all people that play this song, the lyrics behind this song are true not fictional.

    A Murder did happen on Music Row, one young artist was shoot to dead and the other was shot and the bullet is still in his shoulder today.

    One of the Music Industry People involved in it turned State Evidence and was given immunity for his part and the guy that did the shooting was from the Flamingo Casino in Las Vegas and is serving life in prison

  • My mom loved Waylan and Hank - she passed away long before George and Allan were in the business - she would have loved them too! This song was and is a 'statement of fact.' Most entertainers haven't a clue of what 'Real Country Music' is. Not sure what the new music should be called. I enjoy some of it - but it isn't true 'Country Music.'

  • Fourteen reasons why stupid people should'nt breed !!!!!!!!!!

  • 14 people would rather listen to Rascal Flats and other crap wannabe country in a gay bar than listen to real country music

  • how could 14 people not like this whats there prob.

  • Also my two favorite artists and my favorite music, but her in Holland they don't play it on te radio and it''s very hard to by cd's and dvd's

  • Also my two favorite artists and my favorite music,

  • very few even know what this sog was even designed for

  • george and allan are great! going to see ricky skaggs on aug 26 at the watseka theatre watseka illinois,

  • my two favorite artists of all time. .. no one better 

  • THIS SONG SAYS IT ALL..AND AINT IT THE THRUTH.

  • I love these two guys what music.. If you love old classic country try ordering the country family reunion DVD's. They are wonderful and well worth the money.

  • It's a shame that good country is gone and new stuff took over no bad feeling but don't kill classic country it started it all!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Awesome!!! I really like George strait, and other country artist. But i also like rascal Flatts and other artist.....the "pop&country" artists. Why can't you guys just be a little bit open minded? I'm 15, and i listen to all kinds of music, oldies, classics, country, rap, pop, r&b. Enjoy music! Its universal! I know its hard to see things that u love change, but its okay to learn to accept it too!

  • @1996ken cause pop is pop and country is country

  • @migalvarez91 Hmmm....i see your point. Your point is that you guys are mad because ppl are getting the genre of pure country and a mixture of country and pop mixed up?

  • @1996ken Yes sir, I'm only 20 but I grew up with my parents, uncles, dad's friends and so on listening to Hank Williams, Randy Travis, George Jones, etc... I grew up knowing that as Country Music and now I see the younger kids listening to Taylor Swift, Keith Urban and many other artist you have never once worked a tractor played at a honkey tonk or that have just sold out to main stream... it sure is sad.

  • @migalvarez91 aw now, don't call me sir, im only 15! I had friends who started with taylor swift, but then as they start hearing more and more, they started to listen to George Strait, Allan Jackson etc. So you never know,

  • @migalvarez91 let me tell ya buddy me and you seem to be the only ones who see that, i have sirius radio to listen to country and what they call the highway new country is pop and i cant listen to it george and alan are my favorite

  • i would of love to see george jones surprise both of them and start singing along

  • if you want really quality, country. check out hank williams iii. his song trashville and dick in dixie sum it all up

  • RIP OLE COUNTRY MUSIC! i hate the new stuff, taylor, jason, i love carrie when she sings ole country, etc. i'm in my 6-'s and remember george jones, tammy, waylon, willie, and the rest/1 PLEASE BRING IT BACK, FOR OUR YOUNGER PEOPLE. THAT IS THE REAL COUNTRY ! I GREW UP ON THIS! I WAS COUNTRY BEFORE IT WAS COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is REAL country music by true country artists - PureCountryGal, I thought the same thing after I watched that show - wondered when the country music was going to start!!!! It's a crying shame what passes for country music today - can't stand it.

  • Oh yeah, and everyone who buys and listens to it all blow too.

  • The crap that passes as country music today is garbage by a bunch of no talent hacks and wannabes. There hasn't been any real country music since the early 1990s with Garth Brooks and Alan Jackson. The rest of it all blows.  All of it.

  • feat iwan fals ...Indonesia ,please..hiiiikhiiiiikkkk

  • Taylor Swift should listen to this

  • @MrButterchop I SECOND THAT!

  • @tazzz174 I third it .

  • @pedalman hell yeagh!

  • Two of country music's best!!!!!

  • Two of country's best singers!!! Love them!!

  • That song sent chills down my spine!

  • Watseka Theatre Watseka Illinois Summer 2011 Country Music Concert Series;

    July 2 Marty Stuart; July 15 The Bellamy Brothers; August 5 Josh Thompson; August 26 Ricky Skaggs; September 3 Jerrod Niemann.

  • yea ! how the hell does some one like JUSTIN BEBER GET ON CMT ANYWAY ! THERE STILL STICKIN THE KNIFE IN AND TWISTEN IT !

  • Just watched the CMT Music Awards tonight. All I can say is that a whole lot of people should hang for that aweful shit that they call country on CMT.

  • my dad sang this song for me wen i was younger

  • theres never been a more true song ever made

  • Was this song "borrowed" from Gene Watson????

  • I'm mid-twenties and LOVE this REAL country music.

  • I whole-heartely agree !! They don't know what country music is now a days. It sure isn't Taylor Swift or Lady gaga or whatever, They have ruined our music.

  • Very true song.I noticed Alan's voice trembling just a little....shows how much he was feeling, everything he was saying/singing.Both these guys do a great job! ...now this is ''real'' country music!

  • Only these two could get away with this song. That tells you what kind of power they wield on the country scene. God bless them for speaking up.

  • i say all the legends like strait,jackson,haggard,jones, nelson,travis and the few other remaining that sing REAL country music do a tour together and show the world what REAL country music is and not the "country" music they play on the radio

  • Both are very handsome and very talented. Can we get anything like this now?

  • A friend of mine is a fan of hard metal and screamo music. He gives me a lot of crap for listening to country music. I don't give him crap; I just ask him what the song that he is listening to is about and he always replies, "I don't know". Whether you like the new or the old, country music is still has meaning and still relates to life.

  • These 2 Handsome Men could not have said it better when it's come to asking...what happened to my/our Classic Country..OR just plain Country music..Music you could understand the words to..or just one color of hair..or Cowboy hats..not binnies, or scarfs..oh well,..it was just plain "Homicide"!!!

  • alan jackson and george strait is the hank and haggard of our generation

  • and the fiddles barely plays(8)

  • Aaahhh you tell him Alan lol absolutely love this song :)

  • in my opinion as long as the singing isnt to high pitched and whiny and the lyrics are written mostly be the guy or girl whos recording them then its country.

  • Two of my all time favorite singers!!!! The talent is amazing!!!!......Trickie

  • Garth Brooks didn't murder music row. Nor did Shania Twain, Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn, Reba, Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Kenny Chesney or Taylor Swift. I like George Strait's music, but this song is a bunch of BS. Whoever passed this song to George must have been on illegal drugs. You don't have to have twin fiddles and steel guitars to be country. It worked for Johnny Cash, Eddy Arnold, Jim Reeves and Alabama. Nobody killed country music. It changes, just like life.

  • @HTownCountryFan You listen to your Shania Twain, Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn, Reba, Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Kenny Chesney, and Taylor Swift and i'll take my Hank, Waylon, Whitley, Vern, GJ, Merle, and Jamey Johnson....and YES, your Shania Twain, Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn, Reba, Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Kenny Chesney, and Taylor Swift, and Garth Brooks DID KILL COUNTRY MUSIC!!!!! No need to waste anymore time on you. U don't know what country music is!

  • @wta21080 Right there with you man! People these days would rather listen to happy-go-lucky pop country rather than the man with a PhD in Pain

  • damn the lyrics are good

  • SMASHING! I LOVE IT! TRUE COUNTRY AT ITS VERY BEST!

  • 12 people commited Murder On Music Row by disliking this!

  • This song is so true! Where are the new Georges, Hanks, Williams, Loretta, Johnnys of the 60's and 70's that George speaks of?

  • The death of Country music started looong time ago, in 1957 when the Nashville Sound was invented. Thats when steel guitars, fiddles and Hillbilly vocals was replaced with drums, rock n roll guitars and pop vocals.

  • The only hope left is Jamey Johnson. I haven't watched an award show in years. This song tells the world what all the legends and fans of REAL country music are thinking. Play your Kenny Chesney , Keith Urban, Tim, and Toby on your shitty radio station and i'll play my Hank, Waylon, Whitley, Vern, GJ, and Merle etc. It's a shame!!
