George Jones - Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes

[ELVIS4221]

EVERY TIME HE OPENS HIS PAINED VOICE, IT'S THE GREATEST MOMENT EVER.

I SAY WITH ALL MY HEART, STANDING ON THE ROOFTOP, NO ONE WILL EVER EVEN BE ABLE TO LIFT YOUR SHOE LACES.

THIS IS JUST ANOTHER, IN A LONG LINE AND / OR CAREER FULL OF MASTERPIECES

[TheJkennard3]

Man this speaks to my soul. Thanks George

[ppr2021]

This is a perfect song to dedicate to Mr. George Jones himself. Amazing Amazing 1000x... I can't explain it, i'm sure 1000000's of you agree :)

[RaveingChaos]

no one could fill there shoes and that includes you george

[mleblanc35]

no body fill their shoes this song is so true

[Schnitzelschitzen]

It seems so appropriate that this country legend who usually sang his life in his songs, would sing this song because there are few so unique, few so country as George Jones who put the heart and soul in country music. I pray that it's still a long while before we need to fill his shoes.

[truecountrymusicfan]

The first time I heard this song it took my breath away, I was a young teenager in my mid twenties I started going to kariokey with friends I bought the disc to learn the song and when I sang it I made it my own . I got to hear george jones sing it in concert in his farewell to Canada tour . and again it took my breath away.

[MsBigfoot06]

there will never be another that could come close to comparing to George Jones

[THEFLYINGREDNECK]

next to patsy cline...BEST VOICE IN COUNTRY MUSIC!

[TheSTOCKER66]

I love this

[outlawpicker]

Country music lacks uniqeness today thats what made it so great back then everybody had there own feel about them but now its all cookie cutter music row puppets.Thank god for guys like Wayne Hancock ,Hank 3 and Shooter Jennings as long as theres folks who relate to the music there will always be real country.

[tvfd3574]

i love the possum <3

[Scooter30100]

This is real country music. Live long Mr. George Jones

[ropermrmeredith06]

george jones is the best country singer alive.my opinon.

[twins8956]

god this horrible whats all the fuss about.

[beautifulsarah100]

One person must have some pretty damn big feet. You gotta be almost inhuman to dislike this song.

[SpinningBackFists]

possum>>>>>>>>

[jjenner1951]

NO one could have said it better!! WHO IS gonna fill their shoes...when all the old GREAT music artists pass on! I don't care if it's C&W, Rock n' Roll, R&B, or any other genre of music! NO one will EVER fill their shoes!! REAL *music* will NEVER be like the day of old!

[kentucky9000]

Boy ! I like hanging out with George Jones fan's like my self.  We help each other to find songs we can't find are self's on YoutTube, and thinks that's just wonderful...! Nothing like George Jones fans, keep on the Real...!

[musicmandon1]

Nobody's even walking in their tracks, much less filling their shoes. Youtube is the only place real country lives anymore.

[wheelmanstan]

So people, who is gonna fill their shoes? I ask myself this question often now since it looks like no one ever will be able to. There is nothing in the mainstream right now worth a damn. I know there's a lot of talent in the underground but will they ever see the light of day, will they ever get a chance to be heard? It seems real country music is dead but when do we start calling it pop so we can move on with country musics rebirth?

[jjenner1951]

@wheelmanstan I TOTALLY AGREE! I don't even listen to the radio or music shows anymore, and I couldn't tell you WHO is who or WHAT they sing...but, give me the old legends of music, and I can tell you who they are just by the song that's playing, regardless of genre! I have a CD of mixed genre/artists of days gone by I play in my car when I'm driving around town..and so many times I've had young people tell me they like the song, and want to know WHO is singing, and WHERE I got the CD!

[gijoe989]

i love george jones -whos gonna fill their shoes gijoe989.

[redhead553]

well wade and brian whose gonna his shoes (Dale's)

[gjc82071]

OK, who here is a big G. Jones fan? I am looking for a song (I found it here 2yrs ago, but lost it). About 15ish years ago, there was an HBO special with Randy Travis and George Jones. I remember some of the song lyrics went "If you couldn't get the picture, maybe you can read, the writing on the wall". Please help me....anybody. Not worse for driving you crazy than not knowing the name of a song that is permanently etched into your head.

[ThePossumGeorgeJones]

@gjc82071 The song is "You Couldn't Get The Picture". There's 2 videos of this song on youtube. One is fan made and the other is a live video

[gjc82071]

@ThePossumGeorgeJones Yea, thx..went to some "Lyrics to song" website and found it. But I definitely appreciate you taking the time to help/reply. Thx again! :-)

[dbzmaddox]

@gjc82071 hey i got the name Randy Travis & George Jones - A Few Ole Country Boys

[amberniccole1]

@gjc82071 The song is actually called writing on the wall, lol I grew up listening to George, and Tammy <3 =)

[gjc82071]

@amberniccole1 Nope. Writing on the Wall is a different song. "If you couldn't get the picture" off the album "And Along Came Jones" is the song I was looking for. Thanks though.

[gjc82071]

@whiteboy3033 Alright....that's kinda nasty/freaky.....no.....make that extremely nasty........even for a fag who likes old men. Did you ever stop to think that people may have just eaten dinner before reading comments here? I just F&@%ing puked in my mouth a little (pizza). Thanks a lot.

ThePossumGeorgeJones, dude, delete, hide,etc, or whatever it is....that comment. I believe in "free speech", but that is plain nasty & also IMO, sorta disrespectful to George. LOL. thx again for song name

[lazynlovinit]

Who's gonna fill their shoes? - well it sure aint Taylor Swift!!! - One of George's best!

[SandyHunt67]

there will never be another you 

[Eireannach1958]

Yea... what they have now ain't Squat!!! They are all trying to sound like George Strait... I wouldn't give a nickels worth of horse meat for the whole bunch of them!!!

[fastfred5150]

GEORGE NO ONE WILL EVER FILL YOUR SHOES. TY FOR THE MANY YEARS OF POURING YOUR HEART OUT IN YOUR SONGS .YOUR SONGS WILL LIVE FOREVER

[1978angiepooh]

I LOVE GEORGE. MY FAVORITE IS HE STOPPED LOVING HER TODAY

[SodaWaterification]

watching commercials b4 GEORGE JONES? BLASPHEMY!!!!

[MrLoullers]

"You know this whole world is full of singers, but just one of them is chosen, to tear your heart out when he sings"

George "No Show" Jones is the man :D

[joeasmythe]

The Possum and his peers are slowly fading away, sad to see real American music going that way. MOST of what we have nowadays sucks compared to George,Tammy, Ray, Marty, Merle, Loretta, Minnie, and all the rest of the greats, too many to mention.

[168waco]

@joeasmythe RIGHT on the mark pal right on the mark

[joeasmythe]

@168waco  Thanks Waco, I meant every word.

[xXPeppyWildfireXx]

DAMN SONG, I didn't feel like crying today...

But I can't stop pushing that stupid replay button!

[OttoSwede]

100 % Confirmed

Impossible to sing as good as George Jones.

I do some covers and I always have George Jones as a font to sing from, BUT IT'S FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE TO SING AS GOOD AS THE MAN!!!

Even how hard you try, there's only one George Jones.

[Donaldson311]

Im 14, and My Dad grew up on George Jones, and i'll tell You what from the second I heard that first song George was instantlly my favorite country artist of all time, It's like it's in my blood. TOO A COUNTRY LEGEND WE LOVE YOU GEORGE!

[TheNywildfire]

this is one of the most heart felt songs i have ever heard and very true

[gurlinluv16]

here,s to the man, i raise my glass to you George, all your song's at one time or another has gotten me through a lot of tough times, thank you for the best music i have ever had the chance to listen too

[Backstreetboysfan31]

who could dislike this song?? its awazin



[speedbuggy16v]

@Backstreetboysfan31

I don't know who would dislike it, but that person is why we cant have nice things

speed

[FallenAngelKingdom]

Who's gonna fill his shoes?

[AnnihilatingAngel]

Frank Sinatra called George Jones "the second greatest singer" (after him).

He almost got it right.

[jdawg712]

George Jones looks like Adam West now.

[MiddleMadMen]

im 16 and i love you geaorge jones :) no one i mean no one can compare to you i wish singers now days could get this thru there heads... they are doing the complete opposite

[MiddleMadMen]

im 16 and i love you geaorge jones :) no one i mean no one can compare to you

[mkazcam]

I just can't stop listening to this!!! Every mention brings a flood of memories of other great artists and songs. It's like listening to my childhood all at once.

[dolfinluvr072]

NOBODY! Can fill Georges shoes! But it would sure be nice if country BECAME COUNTRY, again! RE-SHOW them George! PLEASE!!!?

[SouthernPride67]

Makes me sad to think Country anit what is usta be.... This is vcomeing from a 15 year old. Old country had heart and sole. thats what i love

[scenbello]

I get quiet  and peace!

[ArmySniper3]

Taylor Swift and Tim McGraw sure as hell aren't

[xXPeppyWildfireXx]

@ArmySniper3 If you're saying they are not country, than I agree, I do like Tim Mcgraws music though. But I freakin hate Taylor Swift.

[killabitch98]

man i love old country.........

[wws50player]

nice song like this

[frances264]

really good singer, i am a country girl b, c.

[MrPfav]

Love you, George !

[JAKEHARRIS281]

Its funny how I'm 21 and know about and listen to George Jones!! AAAhaahahahah!! My grandpa liked to listen to GJ but I never got to know him because he died of "liquorism" in his 60s.

[jimidee33]

Damn, I love this song. The heartache in George's voice and yet the hope that is there as well.  A great tribute song by the very best of country singers. George could not mention himself in his own song, but he belongs there as well. No one will ever fill his shoes nor of course the people he sings of!

[SONJA19713]

I'm having problems too - February 2011

[indylivi610]

i love george from kimmie

[mgmtrace1]

So very very country !! Love George's voice.

[daviswhitetrash]

[Yoshiki570]

[brcklyr1111]

nobody is filling thier shoes these days with the ezception of alan jackson and george strait

[b1mfua33]

no one can fill your shoes mr.george jones!!!!!

[crazytblue]

@b1mfua33 his or the of the good old real country singers

[KillswitchJohn]

i don't even like country but george jones is beast!

[gjc82071]

I often get tears when hearing this song. I was raised not by my parents (& never met my real father) by my grandparents. My grandma, who is practically a "saint", is still here, but my grandfather, who loved G. Jones, & especially THIS song, has been gone for some 10 years. When I hear this song, I think not only of him, but I wonder, who's gonna fill HIS shoes? *Sniff*, God bless ya Grampa. You were not only loved, but also sorely missed, more than you could possibly ever imagine. RIP.

[brcklyr1111]

@gjc82071 hr definetly puts alot into a song

this is a song that has alot of truth to it ,as sad as it is there arent many artists these days that really can stir emotions like the older "real" country singers

[Shasans]

@gjc82071 wow just reading this after hearing this song again made the tears fall--they were brimming but I was fine til I read this my hubby was raised by his grandparents for the later part of his school years and he had a really hard time a few years ago when his granny passed so I was just seeing him in your shoes and he was very close to his grandparents-HUGS!!

[gjc82071]

@Shasans Sorry if the comment made you feel sad. I know how your hubby feels. My Nonna lives with me, & as I see her getting older each year (she's 79), I can't imagine how I would survive her passing. As for my parents, I'm fairly close with my mom, my step-dad passed last summer & I'm 39yo/never meet my real father (who lives not 10 miles from me) or a single 1 of my 6 siblings. But it bothers me not. Thx for the Hugs &

[junglebabe21]

nobody....nobody...

[sexybeastcory13]

@junglebabe21 what r u talking about

[swmpmn85]

George, you are wearing one pair of shoes that will never be filled.

[loverer45]

Ironic you came up with this song. George Jones, noone will be able to fill YOUR shoes.

[Fordiesel250]

One of best country songs ever wrote!

[nascar1111]

I think George Jones and Hank Williams woulda made a great duet song together.

[FreshScrubbyMobstah6]

im ftb from minnesota, i gotta tell you this song means a lot to me, this song helps me to remember ; i had a mom and dad, they mean the world to me even now after they've been gone almost 30 years!! well i miss em so much !!!!! including the ones who left before me!! like my bro doug!! miss you all! bill king gramma gunny billy, and mom and dad

[VonLincoln1]

OK! I'll do it.

[1482cj]

This man songs are an axis and inspiration to so many artists that I can only sit back with no doubt a cool one, hot one too,LOL and let Georgie's boy do what he does best ,just don't cry for Tammy .God knows I love her too , in her own catagory.I was tune in by the folks and continue to admire his vocals ,stage presence and his money, there, I'm also a fan of Hugh Hefner.

[kress1986]

country music is dead now adays there no real singer like him and waylon,wille

merle but jamey johnson might bring it back we can hope

[rubybarton]

no one will ever fill the freat george jones shoes in my eyes or the other great ones like merle haggard or hank williams or the others great ones that have done went on..

[rubybarton]

@rubybarton the great ones

[y2joct7]

Is it me or does George bear a striking resemblence to Jim Carrey when he was younger?

[wlfrnfdjf]

@y2joct7 My 16 year old Son just said that exact same thing the other day!! Especially the flat top pictures looks like Hank in "Me, Myself & Irene"!!

[y2joct7]

@wlfrnfdjf yeah...just something I thought kinda funny. But ironic too. George is singing bout how these country greats will never have someone like them again. No one will be like Jim.

[bead1986]

George always with us

[hppyadam]

now this is country.

[tyusga]

Sang "Walk thru this world with me" to my wife when we got married....nobody beats George.

[MovieTributeArtist]

Yeah i agree this is true country you look at people who have been in the grand ol opry now they just hand out invitations for that place years ago you had to actually have talent and be able to sing now you got idiots like taylor swift and them getting free rides and passes

[oblivionitejay]

@MovieTributeArtist this is so tru

[gatorprincess8]

My great Aunt dated George.

[TheTractorguy140]

@gatorprincess8 wow did she really id love to you send me a massage of you telling me about that i love George jones thanks brendan from N.C

[gatorprincess8]

@TheTractorguy140 Well she was married and he was married to Tammy so ...oops

[vickeyk]

no man can sing liek ole George can. Sure will miss his songs when he is gone. nobody will fill his shoes

[Seazer009]

Number one of all time,,thanks George ! You don't have to worry about your shoes ever being filled ! Thank you for your great music !!!

[Musicmaker68]

the new ones don't have the stuff. a dime a dozen and they all sound the same. Get 1 hit and gone the next day. Not like these ol boys...this was the true country music. The ones today are horrible

[RealGoneGuy]

Nobody will fill those shoes...not because there are no good musicians, but because good country like this doesn't sell anymore. Somehow, those shoes have been thrown away, and now good, heartfelt country is just running around barefoot while the popstars in rhinestone cowboy boots soak up all the glory they can.

[Beepy69]

George jones i like his music reminds me of my Gma i miss her so much

[msuber]

This is ONE of the Best in George"s later career, all time!!!!

[nevaseenamancry]

It's too bad the music video was deleted. I want to see the old gas station attendant ask him to sign his guitar and tell George to "come in".

[braveslife]

you can still see it its under George Jones - Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes? i just watched it

[crazytblue]

@msuber this one of the best country songs ever wrote and sing. if you listen to the words dam george is right where in the hell did real courtry go ??????????????????

[wildnewf66]

@msuber George jones is and always will be the king of country music!!!!

[39tommyboy]

elvis---------much to soon he left this world in tears. how true is that ???? i guess thinking they all did. but elvis was the biggest shock of them all. if only people taking care of hm could have helped him with his health problems. gobless.

[Wrestlemainia25]

god bless you george. btw, i love how he does his hari:D

[blutobelushi]

George.......you are the BEST....

[Crevan1986]

Chris Young has an old style and a good twang, he's young but does well.

Can't say that for a lot though.

[ThePossumGeorgeJones]

The videos are working fine for me. But with the recent changes in youtube i've had a few problems (uploading videos being one of the problems)

[freddieseal]

@ThePossumGeorgeJones

Let the faint red line load up to the end of the song first, then you will get no breaks. regards Fred.

[mosquewatcher]

jiwbink  that happens to me every now and then . It's a pain.

[carlman1987]

yes i have been having the same trouble as well. i do the same pause it and it works. sometimes it does it sometimes it dont. im not sure it could be our computer or it could be youtube

[39tommyboy]

that new volvo crap or what ever its called is like the old volvo cars we used to throw away. lol a lot of my friends are having trouble with it to. but my computer is a oldy but a goody type computer. hope this helps a little godbless.

[rebeldipman94]

@jiwbink It is your internet. Your internet isn't fast enough to just stream it as soon as you click on the video yu have to pause it and wait for it to buffer.

[FatPopCorn]

@jiwbink Sometimes I do. Not with this video or at all today. But it does happen.

[randonian1]

@jiwbink your connection is booty nigga!!! lol

[Countrygirl4923]

@jiwbink I have the same problem; however, I don't think anything is wrong with your PC. I think it has to do with the speed of your internet. Like, when I'm on my laptop at home, I have to pause videos anywhere from 5 seconds to 2 minutes before I can watch it without having to pause in the middle. But when I'm at my sister's house on my laptop, I almost never have to wait. She obviously has a better internet than I do. It spoils me, lol. =P

Hope I helped at all. =]

[jgwar000]

@jiwbink jamey johnson,jamey joshnson and oh uh jamey johnson!!!

[Snowman374th]

@jiwbink Lower to 240 on the video settings.. I do too. Lower right on panel under video.

THANK YOU ALL 4 THE ADVICE, ONLY HAD TBL FOR A FEW VIDS, EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE IN ORDER NOW!! THANKS AGAIN!!!

[crazygood96ify]

man this man is amazing

[splintert92]

Popc country sucks! George is a legend, and Hank III is keeping the real stuff alive

[magz52]

just saw a news clip where George says country pop aint country ...I agree country is country and there aint nothing can replace it Pop is Pop ...Country is Country George is one of the true country singers left that isnt saying there arent some good old boys & girls out there but it seems to be an era that is disappearing just like the golden greats of Hollywood...

[234ultraquiet]

And there will never be another possum. Who's gonna fill his shoes. Nobody for sure from what they call country today.
