Hank Williams III: "Family Tradition"

[steve4643100]

He might have taken his father and grandfather's names, but as big of a Hank fan I am, he didn't inherit their talent and singing ability. Almost painful to watch, and extremely painful to hear.

[XJT1972X]

Nope, No good, Tried to listen to it again, I JUST CANT FINISH IT, He kinda sounds like FROGGIE off of the little rascals. I want to like it but just dont.

[AUDR3Y001]

if you like country music, you have to know this song

[XJT1972X]

Sorry.......Love Hank Jr.........but the Son will NEVER be anygood........cant even finish the song{and I love this song}

[THEFLYINGREDNECK]

@XJT1972X Hank Jr. is a freaking sellout. Have you heard his recent work? It sounds like Toby Keith. It's complete radio bull-crap. Hank III is one of the few carrying on a real country name on this day in country.

[XJT1972X]

@THEFLYINGREDNECK So what,.hank the 3rd will NEVER I repeat NEVER come close to the LEGEND STATUS OF Hank Jr,dont care what his new stuff sounds like,I am Into all his OLD STUFF that still is good to this day. Hank the 3rd sounds like he should be singing in a karaoke bar at best.

[roydon7720]

@usmc2083 when this guy has any kind of success let me know i mean the fans make stars I guess his fan base must not be that big yet of course he's only been playing for 18 yrs...Billy Ray Cyrus was more famous than this guy will ever be lol jarhead....watch for uxo and that damn sniper

[Slatrelle]

Anyone know what type of guitar Hanks strummin?

[fatboy78977]

:38 hahaha

[fatboy78977]

@fatboy78977 38

[Snowman374th]

Now here's the the best way to sing.. Your way. Good Job.. lol

[EntropicMisanthropic]

I like all the people who hate the guy because he doesn't write predictable, inoffensive bullshit and wear the Nashville Whites with the faggoty rhinestones like he's Loretta fucking Lynn on the Grand Ole Opry.

You people are from the wrong century and probably have fucked up kids.

[roydon7720]

38 secs into this video hilarious i wish the guy wouldnt have missed i love hank jr and sr but this kid is horrible no talent at least none that he can perform on stage unless he goes back to tijuana and his donkey side show

[usmc2083]

@roydon7720 shut the hell up. obviously you know nothing about true country music, go back listing to rascal flatts and taylor swift

[Apple13P]

His voice is rough like his dad's. He's just from a different time

[rockchic30]

I agree he looks just like Hank Sr. I thought he sounded pretty good! Keep up the family tradition Hank!!

[LT1HILLINGHOE]

The family tradition stopped with Bocephus. III is starting a new tradition....major suck.

[josh6343]

i like this country-ass motherfucker, he is just like me!

[CntrySingr]

Hank Sr would roll over in his grave if He heard this crap.

[pho20jo]

@CntrySingr shows what you know.

[thejagerbomb1234]

he needs to stick to his day job... there is no way thats hanks son! i wanna see a paternity test LOL

[pho20jo]

@thejagerbomb1234 hell, he looks just like his grand pappy! wtf is wrong with your brain?

[thejagerbomb1234]

@pho20jo i said nothing about him not looking like his daddy or grand daddy, I was mearly saying his talent was not quite up to par as theirs. thats what imeant by wanting to see a paternity test...

[MajestaBuck]

@thejagerbomb1234 Have you seen pics of his granddaddy? He is his spitting image! Have you ever seen Hank3 live? If you haven't, then shut the fuck up. He's the saving grace of REAL country music right now..and his metal band, A.D.D, is the shit..check out "punch, fight, fuck" "smoke and wine" "straight to hell" "alone and dying" and you tell me that he's not talented. He has more talent in his pinkie than every single popular Nashville artist combined..

[thejagerbomb1234]

@MajestaBuck Okay im pretty sure i said nothing about hhim not lookin like him but alright. I was saying he aint as good has his daddy or grand daddy. And actually i have seen him live so before you go around telling people to shut the fuck up learn your facts. I dont understand why your freaking out over a little comment, get over yourself please :)

[4aceshigh1957]

@thejagerbomb1234 ..hey boy prolly need to see your birth certificate..you're prolly Hanks son...hahhahahaha

[4aceshigh1957]

HOLEY THIS GYS NOT AS GUD AS HANK JR WHOS NOT AS GUD AS HANK SR WHOS NOT AS GUD AS HIS DADDY...I SAWM ALL IN TENASEE AND KAINTUCKEE..

[THEFLYINGREDNECK]

@4aceshigh1957 IDIOT!

iii>>>>>>>jr all of the way. but i agree that sr is better than both

[deebodeez30]

@4aceshigh1957 that makes little sense at all...you've seen 4 generations of hanks?

[4aceshigh1957]

@deebodeez30 wull yeah iffen thur was a Hank sr..he had a daddy too whut ust to sing in the tonks..hell a'hm 91 yeers olt..seen Hanks pa way back than.

[scott1467]

Saw Hank 3 in Fort Worth and New Orleans. Great shows. Can't wait to see him again.

[krissyandcodyxox]

hes talented but not as much as his grandfather

[markuss4453]

Hey Hank III, If You're having fun,have fun.Excellent Volcals.Cool!Just Great!

[jefferybrownphoto]

it drags... too slowww... and i dont care for his voice as much as hank & hank jr. still dig his stuff tho.

[dvaughn2071]

this man has more talent than his father or his grandfather. Gotta respect him for being true to hisself and never selling out

[jefferybrownphoto]

@dvaughn2071 are you serious??

[peoman2]

Why are people arguing about the Hanks? All three are freaking GODS

[TheAltCountryKid]

kid rock is not Hanks son, adoted or not, listen to the Hank 3 song " Not everybody likes us", its says so

[acesandeights65]

didnt even skip a beat mother fucker

[bboronda]

from what I know about hank Williams Jr is that kid rock is his adoptive son

[ConfederateGold]

@bboronda obviously you dont know much then

[BigMoe1965]

What's with all the hater's? Come on, really? You morons are just jealous that you have no talent or is it because your not a Hank family member?

I like all the Hank's and if you don't like any of the Hank's you can kiss my ass!!!!!!!

At least they don't sell out to the Nashville cookie cutter chump club!!!!

Oh yeah and i like Waylon and Shooter Jenning's too!

[wikkid86]

@BigMoe1965 he is garbage are you serious, he even messed up the lyrics to one of the greatest country songs ever. its at 1:00-1:10, he says he sawbones when he is suppose to say "leave me alone im singing all night long". what a douche listen to hank jrs version

[countryman4444444444]

@BigMoe1965 i agree with ya

[angelfukedmisfit1]

@BigMoe1965 thats what im talkin about

[filmways1]

Carrying on the family name

[325aliceI]

Hank Sr ' is rolling over in his grave

[SchwackPA]

@325aliceI shut the hell up.

[hellbillykyboy]

fuckin a right. all i gotta say is whats up with pop cunt tree. that shit sux a big fat cock



[Onlymusical]

Hank III also has a half-sister who performs and reminds everyone of their grandfather.

[toarmsindixie1861]

i like 3 and Jr. but your a dumbass, cause the original Hank Williams is THE BEST.

[SteveSbc406]

Defenitely living off of his father's name.

[DeadTime34]

@SteveSbc406

yep, well he got some fame from there no doubt but you can't take away what he's done for himself. he's made some kick ass country/punk/metal tunes. and he's honest as fuck which i like. not willing to take bullshit from today's overproduced, overpayed music industry

[ThePurecountrygal]

Ouch, my ears are hurting big time. Just because of his name sure doesn't mean he sounds like his grandfather????? as so many of the comments I have read states. Yes family can sound similar and have the same accent but there will never be another Hank Williams friends as stated by Hank Jr. who also by the way sounds similar to his dad when he wants to.

[danthman114]

@ThePurecountrygal its better than kid rock singing it. 

[SteveSbc406]

@ThePurecountrygal Hank Williams Jr. is a far better singer than his dad, as has been said by many other top country vocalists.

[SteveSbc406]

@ThePurecountrygal Hank Williams Jr. is a far better singer than his dad, as has been stated by many top country singers.

[ThePurecountrygal]

@SteveSbc406 I wouldn't care if every country artist that ever stood on a stage made this comment I would still be horrified and I just can't believe what I am reading. Don't mind Hank Jr. but he sure isn't his father. I doubt there will ever be anyone who can claim fame to being a better singer or song writer than Hank Williams. There is a reason why even today he is still the greatest legend of them all.

[TexianPride]

@SteveSbc406 Alll of whom suck as singers themselves.

Hank Sr is the only Hank Williams who could sing

[cw092085]

@TexianPride you fuckin moron!!!!

[turbothis2]

i like this song but damn did he not do any good for it. this hank is bogus where his daddy is the bocephus. just a total loser and wanna be

[acesandeights65]

imagne if he has a son . look out mother fuckers

[greasertom]

@acesandeights65 he does have a son, i think he's more into writing or something. i saw a video where he talked about him

[kkkkkkkgggggrrrrrrr]

@acesandeights65

i can only hope he has a girl that acts like him with a rachel brook singing voice

[TheHellcat01]

I SANG THIS SONG ON COPS SO I TRULY FEEL IT FOR REAL

[MrGraphis]

It's hard enough growing up with a famous dad, never mind a famous grandad too! Hank III has done really well to carve out his own original niche. Who wants to see just a copy of his grandad? Not me!

[XJT1972X]

@MrGraphis I dont either, but I want to hear something worth listening too, I couldnt even listen to 30 seconds of this song, Had to turn it off, If this is how Hank the 3rd sounds, I dont want to hear NO more.

[LT1HILLINGHOE]

III is a shame to the William's name. No talent and looks like Howdy Doody.

[Kimona76]

OMG!!! he is a disgrace to his family, he needs some "SHUT THE HELL UP...YOU SUCK"!!!

[blueridger28]

This were i seen Hank 3 killer show

[LKRich13]

damn he looks like his papa but uhhhh he is a little bit goofy eh? shooter is definitely the GOOD outlaw youngin

[irocwoman]

He is grandpa reincarnated! Love it!

[peterbiltearl]

this song fits hank 3 better than jr

[rockinredneck57]

@peterbiltearl You obviously haven't watched Hank Jr very long have you? Why do you think he wrote this? Everything 3 is doing now, his daddy has already done! Drinking, smoking, partying, whatever Hank 3 thinks he thought up, it's been done. Hank wasn't the first either. He learned from Johnny Cash and Waylon back in their wild days. Nashville ain't the answer for a true country singer these days. Only if you want to sell your soul to the devil. Austin is much more agreeable these days.

[peterbiltearl]

@rockinredneck57 listen --i alreddy know jrs just as wild im just stating that it fits 3 better so dont b commenting a Novel on my comment about stuf i knew long long ago that i already know

[straight2helll]

@rockinredneck57 Hey asshole you could say the same to Jr. his daddy did all that before him, III never said he was original,but he is one of only a few true Country rebels that still exist today.

[THEFLYINGREDNECK]

hank sr>hank iii.

hank iii>hank jr

[kwinny09]

reckon all heart and sole for all family traditions thanks to to hanks all of them

[RebungLbeLAU]

hillbillies tradition !!

[poppy3211000]

Ye Ha, aint this good.

[jaywind9]

no heart and soul in his music is why i never liked his shit. it dont matter what you play if your up their actin bored and like a clown then you suck plain and simple

[OutdoorsMan1775]

Hank Jr. is more public than his pa and his son but i still like him. I dont know why yall despise him. He aint singin no nigger shit.

[SuperDave915]

i will take hank sr and hank the 3rd before i will listen to hank jr.

[matthewhanhauser]

he looks like hank but he sings like shit

[RHMETAL]

He's the coolest! He does what nobody else has the guts to do!

[THEMRJAK9584]

@RHMETAL UR RITE N THATS WHAT MAKE HANK III AWSOME!

[bigelwood9]

A little more to the left next time mother fucker~!

[acesandeights65]

@bigelwood9 can you say bad ass

[acesandeights65]

@bigelwood9 not even a flinch. hes a bad ass mother fucker

[roblaw26]

"Little more to the left next time Mother Fucker!"

HAHHAHAHAHa Hank3, is the family tradition :)

[EvilLurker121]

I don't know if I should say this.. but He better name his kid Hank Williams IV to keep the Family Tradition

[dac4eva]

@EvilLurker121 well really none of their names are Hank. Hiram, Randall, Shelton

[DeathCoreyKillKill]

[Trailrash]
