  • El George Strait--- one bad hombre

  • @georgeledon a chuparla cabron!

  • Good job George. You did okay-good on the spanish . I just think you should to stay in english , for the simple reason that mexican americans won't accept a English American Country Singer. But I think it is worth trying.

  • @rnatalie75 haha I think they will accept them, I played this cd at a family party and when this song came up my whole family started singing it and actually said George did a great job.

  • for all of you upset because of a simple mistake regarding who wrote the song don't be.. yes Jose Alfredo Jimenez wrote the song and sang it as well but to this day when this song is mentioned the first name mentioned is Vicente Fernandez... it's an honest mistake I'm 100% mexicana y orguillosa y no me siento ofendida. Nadie se debe sentir ofendido..

  • @mandymendouch:..yo tambien soy 100% mexicana y para mi es un honor que un cantante de la talla de George Strait cante una cansion tan popular mundialmente como es la cansion del El Rey pues no es el primero y puedo garantizar que no va a ser el ultimo que la interpretara....te felicito buenisimo comentario.

  • Binchi Gavacho no sabe que canto!

  • @mauiboyluvinmma how do u know that?i don't think a great singer like George Strait is gone a sing a random song just because, right there you are insulting is intelligence.................. oh, and by the way you should check your Spanish grammar.

  • Really cool. Mr Strait knows that Texans and Mexicans are really brothers and that's why we share similar taste in food, music, and values...Viva la Cultura Mexican y la Tejana

  • @beto841621 exactly !!

  • @beto841621 thats how it is out here in beautiful california to!but i know what you mean the texas and mexican culture are one in the same!

  • @beto841621 ere un pendejo!

  • @jarredon pero con tu hermana me emparejo, en la calle de Vallejo

  • Hope he didn't annoy the anglo bubbas with this one. Well then again, I hope ihe did.

  • George Strait is truly El Rey

  • George Strait Truely is El Rey!

  • Excellent Job!!!

  • Just like Gilberto Perez sang "Crazy Arms" paid homage 2 Ray Price in Tejano GS to Alfredo Jiminez nothing unusual in South TX its a blending of 2 cultures down here. You have 2 be from South TX 2 know most ppl are billingual, one minute you can be listenin 2 Chente & then George Jones it doesn't matter if you're White or Latino that's just the way ppl live here. Makes me love GS more 4 singing this song ツ

  • @kingmojopin0 THATS HOW IT IS OUT HERE IN BEAUTIFUL CALIFORNIA AS WELL!!

  • Of course Chente owns this song but the point is not who sings it better...The point is that GS is singing a Jose Alfredo Jimenez song, payin tribute 2 the Latino Culture. I imagine since he's from South TX, as am I, that it was inevitable that at some point in his career he would.

  • @kingmojopin0 GREAT POINT MY MAN,MUCH RESPECT FROM NOR CAL!!!VIVA GEORGE STRAIGHT AND CALIFORNIA AND TEXAS!!!!

  • I love me some George Strait but um...no.(sorry George).

  • tradition right there this never gets old in my house old whether by vicent fernandez or jose alfredo jimenez

  • I like this and feel King George does a good version of this song.

    Of coarse I don't speak Spanish but to untrained ears this sounds good.

    I think some people are too set on familiarity and won't allow for artist to push boundaries. I give George Strait big ups for stepping out and doing something like this. Of coarse it is not like any haters are going to ruin his career and if they did King George would be just fine thank you.

  • @75630KaraokeStar Spanish is not my native language, because I'm Portuguese, but it is my first and main language, and I can assure you that even to trained ears it sounds really good!

  • i love George!! what can i say English or Spanish he always sounds good

  • i luv dat he likes this kind of musiq but he should juss stick 2 what he do and stay there kuz it aint gewd! nop! nop!

  • 2 thumbs up

  • Wow ,El Rey sung by an American Country singer,he does a great j
