Hello little super hottie Nelson brother!!! The twins are cute for sure, but he is just a spitting image of his daddy, they look more like their mom. This song is beautiful anyway, and the 3 of them singing it together makes it that much more meaningful, and they do a wonderful job, just a talented family.
i am a filipino seafarer on board on Royal Caribbean"s Vision of the seas last 2008 when i 1st heard the music of their father's music! ricky Nelson is an awesome performer and one of a kind..No doubt! its genetically transferred to his 3 son..a great music talent!
Well, I am 38 and I must say I just heard this song on the latest episode of "Men of a Certain Age" and it touched me. I have probably heard parts of this song a 100 times at different parts of my life and never took note until now. So, I looked it up and found this. He seemed like a great man and any man would be proud to have boys like that. God Bless the Nelson family, their fans and the way we Americans used to strive to be
Went down to Water Street the other night in Henderson and saw the Nelson Brothers do an outdoor show remembering their Father Ricky. They played most of his greatest hits.It was incredible. What a fantastic night. Check out this great studio clip of the Nelson Brothers doing " Garden Party "
He has a band called "H is Orange". I don't know much about it, I think they are an "alternative" band. You might be able to YouTube them...I haven't done it yet. He does have a good voice. Such a talented family...
These boys (men) put all young Hollywood to shame. If anyone had reason to "go crazy" or lose it, it would have been this family. From finding out about the death of their father the way they did, to their mother's issues, custody battle over Sam, etc. and they just quietly persevered. They are beautiful and an inspiration!
From what I've read the line "Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise" is a reference to George Harrison who was Rick's neighbor and sometimes used the name Hughes while traveling. Harrison and Dylan were planning to do an album together and finally came about under the Traveling Wilburys. George traveled incognito.
I love the story behind this song. It was Ricky's appearance for a retro (for 1970) rock-n-roll "party." He got booed off the stage by the audience, then got even by writing this song---which became his biggest hit! "You can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself." WTG Ricky!
What an amazing tribute to their father. They sung this song so well, especially Sam's part. Sam has all his father's gestures when singing, the head tilt, the eyes closing and his lips are like his father's too! Amazing job by three amazing men!
Too me Matthew and Gunnar look like their mother. Sam Nelson, looks like his father Rick. Sam, is my favorite in the group and I hope to meet him someday and get his autograph and give him a big hug and tell him how awesome his father is. R.I.P. In Heaven Rick Nelson.
you are correct that she has 2 kids but she has one of each... her daughter Remington and son Elijah. As far as this out on CD not yet. Matthew and Gunnar have a CD out called "Like Father Like Sons" and they have done it on there but Sam wasn't on there with them
Took my son to see The Brothers playing at Monterey Fairgrounds a few years back and we had the best time! They put on such a great show ~ reminiscing about their Dad and singing his songs. It was so awesome. Very talented young men. Will definitely go see them in concert again.
I have three sons - all of whom are musicians. Two are in Austin TX and the youngest is in Murfreesboro TN. As a father, this is such a nice tribute to theirs.
thanks anita ' first time ive seen these guys .and im with you the one in the middle looks and sounds like his dad ' im going to look for more stuff of these guys on the tube ' thanks RAKKENROLL for posting this one friend
Very nice guys. Very nice indeed. Your Dad would be proud. I saw him perform this lovely song live in North Hollywood, California.....1975 at The Palamino. Gunnar, I met you back in 1995 at my small Washburn office just off Music Row in Nashville. It was there I got to share with you my great respect for your Dad as we discussed my favorite album of his,"Legacy." Again guys, great work and a great tribute to an American treasure, your Pop....Rick Nelson.
Sam is Rickys little clone

Sam should record "Young World", I think it is a beautiful song. How much does Sam look so much like his father!!!

Ya, if Sam came make a New CD and
name it "Young World" A Tribute to

sing it in the Album and add some

would surely buy it. Did you know
he has a band called H is Orange?
