Marty Robbins - Feleena (from El Paso)

[oldermusiclover]

am still trying to find a copy of this song.

[robert80224]

Thinking about when Marty Robbins died, I was somewhere between Dickinson, North Dakota and Billings, Montana was a sad night but the Music was AWESOME for a country Music LOVERS!

[Peppysioux]

Legend.........

[RaySingh87]

I heard "El Paso" yesterday when I was working out at the gym I go to (they play music there while you work out). I instantly fell in love with the song! I thought it was sad--how could I have known that "Feleena" would be so much sadder! Now I have a new favorite song. I was born in the wrong decade, I swear. That guy is a genius!

Now I'm crying.

[wildoutrudeboy]

Marty Robins & Louis L'amor are the greatest Western story tellers of all time.

[TheEodguy1970]

There will never be an artest like Marty Robins. It is sad that he died. Think of the songs that he would be able to doing now. I miss his music very much. God Bless You Marty.

[Keyyization]

Marty Robbins is still the Greatest music story teller there will ever be ...and ive had the honor of meeting his grand-daughter!

[riocan87]

Dedicated to L J Donovan.

[cpnstav]

Thanks for posting. There is no way we can replace this talented versatile Artiste with a vocal range second to NONE. What a brilliant entertainer the world has lost.

[TheDarthCassius]

I am going to name my next child Feleena. Fact.

[AnoziraNoscut]

@TheDarthCassius STOP! Re-consider the possibilities.

[TheDarthCassius]

@AnoziraNoscut Haha. But it's such a nice name. Ok. Next Sims baby it'll be called Feleena. Just to test it out.

[rewt127]

Thanks to my late father, who left me the twin cassette pack, including this great song, love, and miss you, dad!!!

[aircraftbuilder]

Marty had trouble getting this song played . It was so long that most radio stations of the day wouldn't or couldn't play it.

[wilmaohman]

@aircraftbuilder I talked one DJ into playing it,years ago,by flirting with him. He really didn't want to because it was 8+ min long. The only version I know of this was on his "The Drifter" album.

[MrJaravo]

Krásné, přímo super.

[immortaldan]

pretty sure i just stumbled onto something amazing... just blew my mind. Youtube never seizes to amaze me.

[TheRifcha]

Amazing poetry. Marty was truly the greatest. Still is

[cmccance2]

Saskabush2006 is right! Someone should make a western movie around this.

[G2008W]

trainbum, you want El Paso City (The song that followed up El Paso)

[trainbum]

[horses3334]

@trainbum the song is probably el paso city

[saskabush2006]

El Paso, Faleena and El Paso City constitute the best western movie that was never made.

[IantheWoodcraftsman]

Thanks for posting this track!! I have been a Marty Robbins fan for 50 years and I don't recall this track. I'll have to check my vinyl stock. Cheers.

[deejaybrick]

Awesome tune I never knew existed until I found it here. Has all the lilting quality and beautiful melody of El Paso. Thanks for posting!

[dorisdayinohio]

Excellent.

[csa357magnum]

great song i love marty robbins he will never be replaced

[bikerDude466]

a long song but good

[DoRite0207]

Reminds me of my Dad, he enjoyed listening to ol' Marty Robbins and his band, the guitars are so classiC!

[Odinsboy87]

@DoRite0207 My adopted dad likes Marty Robbins to, we used to listen to him when I was a kid.

[oldermusiclover]

@DoRite0207  do you know what kind?

[ernlay]

This is not a song. its an epic.

[oldermusiclover]

does anyone know about Marys backup singers?

[reneewidenor]

My life in New Mexico had many lighting storms. I grew up on this music - to the point of nobody understanding. It is real to truth.

[TheMarfinew]

it is on Marty Robbins gon fighter album

[utubegman1]

Thanx 4 putting this on.Even though El Paso is favorite Country Western song I had never heard this b4. Probably too long to get much airplay.

[QWZXM]

Had this one years ago on a LOng PLaying Record, but can't seem to find it. Really a sensational song. My next door neighbour use to sing El Paso and then follow up with this one round the campfire Saturday nights.

[treyboy1991]

@utubegman1 this is the song about maleena right... the same maleena from "El Paso"?

[Blaze4307]

@treyboy1991 its feleena and yes its the same. He did another one that told of the background as well.

[Blaze4307]

@Blaze4307 El Paso City

[brahmgyan]

This song has an outstanding melody...

[ken2corfu]

Really atmospheric,all three related songs ,this one, El Paso and El Paso City , make a great trilogy, Love It !

[PD1981]

The lyrics to this song are just so picteresque and haunting. Marty Robbins must be the most expressive and talented storyteller/lyricist around

[1973slimshady1973]

IV seen a movie about this song i think it was called Feleena.

[melvynthecat]

yes its here on you tube martys singing alone in a bar room

[sumpsvamp]

♥ Love the story in this song ♥

[Ironbudokan]

Beautiful song.

[singhtoo]

This man can tell a story so meaningful and putting it to lyrics and singing it so masterfully only proves GENIUS.

Marty you are the best storyteller.

[romad49]

Yes. His poetry, his singing, his passion and his overall make him truly a genius.

[rowhide]

Sorry but is there any movie called "El Paso"?. I love this song, El Paso, and many others. Sorry but I'm from Cordoba City, Argentina and love country music.-

[GeneRoberts61]

There is an old movie called El Paso. It starred John Payne and Sterling Hayden. Unfortunately, this movie does not tell the story of Feleena.

[mroodclandestino]

Beautiful song... I knew only the version which sang Michal Tučný, but the original is the original... Sorry for my english :-)

[AnyaRamonesFreak]

I love this song and El Paso. As he sings I can picture it all in my mind.  He is a wonderful story teller. Thanks for posting this song.

[Tempo35]

Love this song! Marty was great!

[fredbands]

first time i actually heard this one but i know alot of marty's other songs. I like Mr. Shorty and El Paso alot.

[wilmaohman]

this was recorded on his album "the drifter" it didn't get any airplay because it was over 8 minutes long.i think the album was recorded in the 60's.

[wilmaohman]

@oldermusiclover, El paso was over 4 min,they told Marty it would never get any air play,since most records were 3 1/2 min or less.Marty made them eat their words.He was a great guy, on or off stage.
