I want to know how staged this was. He did a great job though! But if you listen to the George Strait version, in my opinion King George does it way better.

In this day and age I cannot understand why folks are so surprised to see Jaime Fox on stage with all the rest. The man likes country music and has a beautiful voice to boot. Personally I am black and I have been listening to country since the eighties. At the same time listening to soft and hard rock, hip hop, rap, classical, and others while living in the Bay Area to top it off. People are people. Music is a HUMAN commonality. Get over it and just live. B.E.P. " Where is the love?"

Hey JF, didja here the end names???? .......Sorry for the hazing ;) But you were great and it was such an awesome version. Maybe George will let you cut it?? Ciao, baby.
Famous Country Music Singers in the audience hit their feet clapping so that tells you how great a job Jamie Foxx did with this song. The King even made a comment (I know George was joking) that he may change the way he sings it. That was a great compliment in it self. Jamie lite that song up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What makes a good cover, IMO, is when an artist makes the song theirs, not when they try to copy and sound like the original artist. I've been watching some of the videos from this tribute, Brooks and Dunn did it with their version of "The Cowboy Rides Away" and Jamie defiantly does it here. I love the soul/RB fill to it. It sounds like the song could've originally been an RB song. Great cover!
I'm really glad to see this video. I am a young black woman who absolutely loves George Strait. I have been listening to his music for years. IIt's great to see an R&B artist embracing the wonderfulness of George's music. It just goes to show that good music can be appreciated by all.
americans are very retarded.... they scream all the time... shut the f up because i want to hear his voice, not your crazyness. wait till the end of the song then scream till you f-ing die. uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
George Strait is still the man... but damn, Jamie Foxx sang the hell out of this!
If anything, Jamie's version may appeal to a more diverse audience and bring a greater awareness to Mr. Strait's music and legacy. Well done Mr. Jamie Foxx and thank you Mr. George Strait.
I've watched this 100 times and I just can't get tired of it. What a voice this Jamie has and I think George was shocked how good it sounded. Jamie stole the show and thats a fact. You can tell Jamie really loves country music alot and I think that is so cool.Wonderfull...............
Skin color shouldn't matter! Jamie KILLED this song!!! He really gave this song justice. I'm not black or white. I'm Mexican for crying out loud lol but I loved the song and the performance all in all :)
Skin color shouldn't matter! Jamie KILLED this song!!! He really gave this song justice. I'm not black or white. I'm Mexican for crying out loud lol but I loved the song and the performance all in all :)
@shobud71 Your right he is one bad ass singer. I have never heard this song sang with a soul spin like this. I would never have thought that it could happen and I've been a drummer for 28 years. It's so great because Jamie had the vision in his head to do it this way. Pure talent is right.
@krblizzard yea its close but they copie on country music and they make it there own, just like gospel they take it form country and put god name in it , same thing wit bluegrass RB copied on that still of music to, i'm not black or whte i'm native red skin that my story and i'm sticking to it lol
Wow awesome job Jamie! My late father was an avid George Strait fan in and out and I just wanna say he'd really love this cover I know I did awesome man awesome
Not very many singers can pull off a King George song and well I personally never get tired of listening to Jamies version of this song! I think he Rocked It! I still have that show recored on DVR for his performance alone! Do I think he stole the show that night? YES! I think he was the best performance over all!! No I am not black or white just a simple girl from Texas who loves her country music and gives props when and where they are needed and well Jamie deserves them hands down!!
As a Black guy and a Texan and a country fan, when I saw Jamie Foxx on this, I was thinking "Oh Lord, what is he going to do?" I gotta say, he did very well. "You better sang that song Jamie!" Long live King George!
for those talking about rascism just stop. If you like the song then enjoy jamie foxx singing it. Enough. its ppl like you. Black or white that keep it going. The world looks down on America period. You want to change that then stop arguing and come together. If you want to stay ignorant then that is your choice. But dont bring it into something like a conversation about a rendition of a beautiful song.
@BravesFan84 I know that right. i'm from GA and I like all kinds of music, just because i'm doesn't mean that I have to listen to rap..if its any good and has a nice message or beat to it i'm listening to it
Jamie Fox is muti-talented! He did an excellent job on this wonderful song! King George and the audience were lovin' it!! The reaction to this performance was phenomenal!!!
@trp410 I'm Black, I don't love country music, b.u.t. have u ever noticed our people can take any song (country, etc.), and tear the heck out of it (i.e. I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston originally sung by Dolly Parton). Knowing this system, this music was probably created by us & stolen anyway, b.u.t. what else is new?? Oh well...
@TribeofShabazz I'm talking about yours and others moronic comments you idiot. Jamie Foxx killed that song. He knocked it out of the park. He stole the show. No one can sing it better than him. George Strait even said so. But, your goofy comments show people what you really are.........a complete raving moron.
@GoldenEyeJack U r in fact the real moron!! Go back & read my comments where I spoke well of Jamie Foxx singing well. My comments rn't goofy, b.u.t. right & exact u f@#king @ss!!
@TribeofShabazz Why is it that most black people feel the need to constantly affirm they're black. There are reasons that most of the world thinks less of your kind. You bring it on yourselves. If you would act like normal human beings then you wouldn't have to worry about the foot on the neck. Moron.
@GoldenEyeJack Its obvious ure racist based upon ure comment grouping us 2gether "Why is it that most black people feel the need..." We don't got jack courtesy of ure people who treated & continue to treat us like s@#t!! U think bc Obama's in the White House, things r going to change?? Whose in contro of our country rightnow?? U c nothing but Whites & a few people of coor in Congress, etc. If Obama doesn't bow 2 the WHiteman's wishes, he'll be out after his 1st term!!
@TribeofShabazz Once again a stupid moron accusing someone of racism where there is none. That seems to be your only defense. Let's not talk about how most of you are in jail, going to jail or died in jail because you would not be a stand up citizen. Black folks have more opportunities in this great country than anyone and you won't take advantage of it because you want whitey to pay you for nothing. You don't know how to work hard or have a good work ethic.
@GoldenEyeJack Do you even work around any black people? I know many black people who would outwork you in any job. Dude dont accuse someone of falsely accusing you of being racist and then proceed to say something racist.
@Crayolakid1 You know what my friend....I must apologize for any comments I've made that may have been racist. I'm not a racist. I just get riled up when I see racism of any form. I let myself tread down a path I don't normally take. I read all these comments I perceived to be racism toward whites and I got out of control. The bottom line is we are all Americans and we should support each other and stop the hate. I have many good friends who are black. Peace brother.
@GoldenEyeJack Man that is one of the classiest comments ive ever seen on youtube. Sorry I also get riled up from others comments too from time to time. Your are right we are all Americans and must support eachother. God bless brother.
@ItBrandonSilver You are a no good f--k. I am so mad at what you said i would love to be locked in a room with you for five minutes. This guy is a wonderfull singer and a good man. If he can sing a country song like this in a hall filled with all these white people and nail it he's a damn great man in my book. Shows alot of class,and I'm a white country boy. And this song he just sang needs to be recorded. Damn nice job. With a soul spin on it like that might be just as good as George's.
@GoldenEyeJack I had no idea that we bring ALL racism on ourselves. Clearly a man as intelligent as you knows that "all" and "none" are daggers in any theory. I'm sure you also know that most of us aren't in jail. If you've read and added the numbers, as I'm sure you have, you'd know this isn't true. I am a middle-class, college-educated black and so is everyone I grew up around and are friends with today. Maybe we ALL missed the headed-to-jail train... @TribeofShabazz: You're an embarrassment.
Such a great performance, and actually when George was making his acceptance speech later in the show, he said quote "Jamie, I'm gonna have to rethink how I do You Look So Good in Love
Jamie...you DID the DANG thang! YOU were lookin SO GOOD IN LOVE! LOL! I'm a fan of George Strait, and kudos to him for a great song, but Jamie breathed new life into it! Go ahead and record that one and any other for that matter!
Jamie Foxx represented Texas when it came to George Strait!!!!He did so good .I love this song so much.George Strait is the King of Country to me period!!!!Can't nobody touch his hits!!!!
@DeportAnchorBabies I disagree. I think that it demonstrates great versatility with respect to Jamie's talent and George's ability to create music. R&B and country are both beautiful genres that sound best when pure and not intermingled with nonsense, such as R&B songs over a hip hop track.
this just goes to show that... music is amazing an if you got heart in the lyrics then it just.. well makes since.. every one can relate... just keep an open mind an love everybody ... cause we have all loved an we have all lost.. GOD BLESS
You know when I was watching this, I was thinking " Oh God, No...he's gonna fuck i up" cause to me the only person who can do a George Strait song and not ruin it is the man himself. But I actually like this version!! A pleasant surprise.
I want to know how staged this was. He did a great job though! But if you listen to the George Strait version, in my opinion King George does it way better.

@TribeofShabazz I'm talking about yours and others moronic comments you idiot. Jamie Foxx killed that song. He knocked it out of the park. He stole the show. No one can sing it better than him. George Strait even said so. But, your goofy comments show people what you really are.........a complete raving moron.

@TribeofShabazz Why is it that most black people feel the need to constantly affirm they're black. There are reasons that most of the world thinks less of your kind. You bring it on yourselves. If you would act like normal human beings then you wouldn't have to worry about the foot on the neck. Moron.

@GoldenEyeJack Its obvious ure racist based upon ure comment grouping us 2gether "Why is it that most black people feel the need..." We don't got jack courtesy of ure people who treated & continue to treat us like s@#t!! U think bc Obama's in the White House, things r going to change?? Whose in contro of our country rightnow?? U c nothing but Whites & a few people of coor in Congress, etc. If Obama doesn't bow 2 the WHiteman's wishes, he'll be out after his 1st term!!

@TribeofShabazz Once again a stupid moron accusing someone of racism where there is none. That seems to be your only defense. Let's not talk about how most of you are in jail, going to jail or died in jail because you would not be a stand up citizen. Black folks have more opportunities in this great country than anyone and you won't take advantage of it because you want whitey to pay you for nothing. You don't know how to work hard or have a good work ethic.

@GoldenEyeJack Do you even work around any black people? I know many black people who would outwork you in any job. Dude dont accuse someone of falsely accusing you of being racist and then proceed to say something racist.

@Crayolakid1 You know what my friend....I must apologize for any comments I've made that may have been racist. I'm not a racist. I just get riled up when I see racism of any form. I let myself tread down a path I don't normally take. I read all these comments I perceived to be racism toward whites and I got out of control. The bottom line is we are all Americans and we should support each other and stop the hate. I have many good friends who are black. Peace brother.

@GoldenEyeJack Man that is one of the classiest comments ive ever seen on youtube. Sorry I also get riled up from others comments too from time to time. Your are right we are all Americans and must support eachother. God bless brother.

@ItBrandonSilver You are a no good f--k. I am so mad at what you said i would love to be locked in a room with you for five minutes. This guy is a wonderfull singer and a good man. If he can sing a country song like this in a hall filled with all these white people and nail it he's a damn great man in my book. Shows alot of class,and I'm a white country boy. And this song he just sang needs to be recorded. Damn nice job. With a soul spin on it like that might be just as good as George's.

@GoldenEyeJack I had no idea that we bring ALL racism on ourselves. Clearly a man as intelligent as you knows that "all" and "none" are daggers in any theory. I'm sure you also know that most of us aren't in jail. If you've read and added the numbers, as I'm sure you have, you'd know this isn't true. I am a middle-class, college-educated black and so is everyone I grew up around and are friends with today. Maybe we ALL missed the headed-to-jail train... @TribeofShabazz: You're an embarrassment.

this just demonstrates that r&b is superior to country music
DeportAnchorBabies 1 year ago
@DeportAnchorBabies I disagree. I think that it demonstrates great versatility with respect to Jamie's talent and George's ability to create music. R&B and country are both beautiful genres that sound best when pure and not intermingled with nonsense, such as R&B songs over a hip hop track.
luvmydimplez 1 year ago
@DeportAnchorBabies No, this just proves that R&B and country music share a common ancestor - SOUL. Not soul music, rather, it's music from the soul.
