He has chnaged so much over the years, but not his BEAUTIFUL voice ! I can hear his Father there with him ! Amazing ! and OMG He had such sexy lips ! :)
We attended one of Hank Jr.'s shows in the late 70's and he played four different instruments and along with his singing.and the great band with him it was one heck of a wonderful performance.
Hank's style is really close to his dad's, which makes it really special, but he's still his own man for sure. I really love his romantic ballads and he does a terrific job with this song here. Thank you for posting. - Paula
I've seen the movie twice in which Hank sung this wonderful ballad. He's a pretty good actor and I liked the story line itself. Thanks once more for posting this treasure. - Paula(PaulinaRena).
@PaulinaRena its interesting that hank jr is always compared to his father. in many ways hank jr has had a much longer lasting, more meaningful career than his father. yet he still feels inadequate to his dad. but that's most boys. no matter how much they accomplish, they always feel they're falling short of their daddy's expectations.
If I had a dime for every beer I drank listening to this song on eight-track, I could have retired a long time ago. We used to call it the National Anthem.
My Dad used to say something like that about Jerry Lee's "What Made Milwaukee Famous." He said he bought that record while he was serving overseas and pretty much wore it out.
I like all three of them and there music. But I personally think Hank Jr has got them all beat.. Everyone gives Hank a bad rep because he plays with new talent and ppl like kid rock, kracker, aerosmith, etc.... But what they dont realize is that when he was singing all his fathers songs and switched to his own style. The only people that gave him a chance were people like Marshall Tucker band, Chalie Daniels and the outlaws of the 70s.. So i think its cool that he's giving others a chance aswell
that's right, man. hank was on top of the world doing sr's songs, and chose to reinvent his whole style and start all over, then built an empire in his own right. this cat is a living legend, and we're lucky to have him. by the way, he plays with other people because they BEG him to let them play with him. you bow before the king and show respect, then maybe he'll sit on stage with you...
educated or not on the history of country comparing or not, This family is legend in country music and to compare them to one another is just natural cause they are the great rockers of country if anything you can see how the music evolved over time in the same family... they are history and they will always be....Lovin that country and Hank jr Rocks his like in the middle of the rockin country but he also has that lonesome blues touch he rock forever and for always....
1. since hank sr INVENTED country music, you only get to compare hank sr to himself--BUT--
2.hank jr was a headlining act when he was 8!! he had greatest hits at 11! he plays guitar, lead, piano, banjo, violin, and plays then WELL. they BOTH write their own music, but jr can also play every instrument on the song. comparing the two is like saying "what's worse, dying by great white or hammerhead?" they'd both be pretty unreal, way way out of the norm...
I wouldn't necessarily say he invented country music. Go back and listen to some Jimmie Rodgers. There is a reason he's dubbed the "Father of Country Music." But, I see where you're coming from. I would say Hank was probably the earliest "honky tonk" singer, at best.
i agree about hank lll being overlooked--as long as he does the death metal nonsense he'll be overlooked--and well said, dook--hank brought to the world the subset of original country on the jimmy rogers stripe of honky tonk.
1. hank sr. did not invent country music, thats pretty widely attributed to jimmie rodgers and the carter family. in fact, country music had been around for decades before hank became a major contributor to it.
2. hank jr. cant play any of those instruments well. the only thing he could do well was sing and write. and he hasnt been worth a shit since he fell off the mountain.
did you say "not worth a shit???" what a fucking idiot you are, hortonfanatic! and NO ONE was doing what hank sr did BEFORE hank sr did it! i'm not taking away from rodgers, but sr stood on his own. i have no patience for someone who would say jr can't play well--i seen him live, and i know instruments. by the way, horton can only play fast, but fast isn't the same thing as great. learn something about music. and it's my pleasure to school you, moron....
Great video...I have the Album and it's really good. Does anyone remember the name of the group that was in this movie. They were entered into the talent contest with Hank. I think they're name was "The XL'S" ?...but I really would like to find the song they sang in the movie.
i like this movie man some scens are heart touching man he and his mama are talking in the huge house he don't want to sing his daddy's music anymore his mama told him she don't want him to be dead like his daddy
just found this, its great man pure hank. i wonder what hank sr and the cowboys version might of sounded like? you can hear his daddy in this song, thanx for posting...
i agree with you bro he aint his dad. he is better. he has taken everything his daddy left and he is improving it. he will never be as influential to the genre as his dad but he is simply the best
na Hank Sr. was the best at his style, Hank Jr was best at his style. But they were both even. Hank 3 could be big if hed stop cussin' drinkin' smoking pot and being everything that southern gentelmen shouldnt be.
I agree with crazycuntryboy2 hank sr is the bes, hank jr is good, plus this video shows how songs where recorded when this song came out in the 60's they where recorded live now days it done multitrack.
You're a fucking abortion of a human being. No one will ever come close to Hank Sr. Especially none of his offspring. Whatever generation they may be. And I can guarantee they'd agree with that.
let me restate what i meant, i like hank jr's style better then his dads, the songs he re-did are def not as good as his fathers but i bet if senior could re do some of juniors songs then they wouldnt be as good either
My oh my that is way better than any other songs of his that I've ever heard! Awesome...looks like I have some investigating to do into some old Hank Jr music.
that song was done before his acident
