My only issues wuth this version is it is to slow and seems to have less eeling than Bob 's version I do not hate this I just prefer The rock 'N" Roll version best. Rest im Piece Waylon.
It's not an insult to the great Waylon Jennings to say the Bob Segers version is still better. Hoss didn't record it to try and one up Bob. It's ok to like both versions. Seger poured his heart and soul into his version. It was first and will always be my favorite.
metallica took a song about road musicians and made a video about a transvestite hooker . That deserves a kick in the junk. DISLIKE METALLICA. like they don't have long hair and get flak. WTF?
In my honest opinion: Metallica's is the best out of all 3. This is probably the least favorite of mine, but I'm not really a country kinda guy, so my opinion is bias
Although I can respect other's opinions about which versions they prefer, I still believe Bob's version stands alone as the best, definitive version. Waylon's is pretty good though. Never much cared for the Metallica cover.
Thank you teddie488. Waylon was my dads favorite singer and I have loved his music since childhood. Never knew he covered this one though. Thanks again!
Everything Waylon did kicked it up a notch! He did what he always did- his own thing and made it more beautiful than anyone else! Always missed, but never forgotten!!!!
Waylon sure knew as much about the lyrics in this songs as Seger or anyone else. This song could have been about him just as easily as Bob. The steel guitar and keyboard in this one matches the beautiful sax in the original. Sweet, how did I miss this all these years?
would have been a classic for seager to do this song togeather all three versions are on my favorites. first time to ever hear his version waylons version right up there with the other two
don't know that there is a "bad" version of this song. Which shows just how awesome this song actually is. Bob Seger's version is extremely soulful. Metallica's will rock your face off and this one has got that country boy feel to it. Don't like the sage francis one though. I think he might have done that as a joke though.
As good as the original is, I've always hated the sound of the saxophone(no matter who plays it, I just cannot get into the sax at all), so this version not having it is a definite win in my book.
@Kittycatsong120 Thats a fair comment if you looked at my channel, the you can guess why i say Waylons is my favourite version of a great tune which of was a big hit for Bob Seger
Waylon will always have my respect, the man could do no wrong when it came to music. Bob or waylon? Doesn't matter Bob wrote it, performed it and made it famous. Waylon covered it and covered it perfectly, Bob should be proud.
Heard an interview Waylon did and he said when Segar wrote the song he flew to Nashville and pitched it to Waylon. Segar told Waylon the song was about Waylon.
Holy sh"t ! First I find Bob Segar came out with this before metallica now I find out one of the best country singers has sung this too? lol wonder who metallica listened to Waylon or Segar? lol Still love metallica 's cover though.
@MissWWE20 It is just agreat song..does it really matter ..i think you , like me just enjoyed it so much, although i am a massive fan of Waylon..thank you
i am a firm beleiver that certain songs are "untouchabel" and should NEVER be covered. waylon did it left and right and i love every one of them. why? because his versions had the same thing the originals had. heart, emotion and feeling in bucketloads. hes not up there "singing" a song. hes feeling it as it pours out of him. there is and always will be only one waylon. who is he? waylon GD jennings....thats who
One of my all time favorite songs-never knew Waylon recorded it. He nails it! Only one thing I kinda find funny-"is it a woman or a man"-yeah Waylon by then had grown his hair long-but I doubt he would ever be confused as a woman-and I can't see Waylon not making a stand-because he was outnumbered-Waylon was one sexy hunk of a man-may he R.I.P.Thanks for the post.
Holy ..... I cat think of what to say..... First time i heard this version and its still sending chills up and down my spine. This is exactly why, of all the gees of music I listen to, Waylon will always top my favorites
Sun Records released Cash's Folsom Prison Blues on December 15, 1955. Waylon's first album was done in 1964, first single release in 1965. Willie Nelson started the "Outlaw" movement. Read the history.
@boothl232 Now i aint bothered but you sound like you are trying to correct me on who did what and to read it up. Well let me direct to Waylon ...An Autbiography pages 228/229it tells you how it all happened you also seem to be ging off dates of certain releases..JC was never an Outlaw althought he would not be dictated too..Willie Yea sure he was a leader and dfeserves as much credit as Waylon ..Now are really worried how it all started ...tc my friend
@teddie488 I didn't say Cash was even involved in the Outlaw movement. I'm just saying that he was around a LOT longer than Waylon. Saying you're an expert doesn't make you one. You can have your opinion, I can have mine. "Read the history" is a statement not an instruction, my friend. And just so YOU know, I think Waylon is the BEST country artist to ever sing a song.
@boothl232 No That is true, saying i am an expert does not make me one,.. i did not say that and would never make such a claim, but you have not read the book i mentioned or you may not have made your statement ''Willie started the outlaw movement'' but we do agree on one thing Waylon was the best country singer ever ... tc and have a good holiday

@teddie488 I disagree that Waylon was a Godfather of Country. It's like a family tree
major artists in order were Jimmie Rodgers, The Carter Family, Hank Sr., Johnny Cash,
George Jones, Willie & Waylon (among others). To be a Godfather you have to be an originator or leading exponent. Waylon might qualify for Outlaw but not Country as you stated.

@mommenon1 Sorry I didn't know that he was such an expert, as his credentials aren't posted here. But I wasn't trying to be rude. Just trying to give credit where credit is due.
Waylon was playing rock with Buddy Holly well after Cash had been established as a Country artist. Just stating the facts. If Waylon started in the '60's he's no Godfather,
except to Hank Williams III. Just because you're a fan doesn't make you an expert.

@boothl232 Hell I am so glad we came to some kind of an agreement and i thank you both for your contribution, it made you tube just a little more intersting i hope you both have a real happy christmas.
Waylon is in many ways the godfather of Country Music. Before Waylon music was written by corporations and nobody made money on touring. Waylon had the first Country Music Rock Star Contract. Then he brings his old roommate Johnnny Cash in and meets Willie Nelson and brings him in. Country music was never the same after that.
@Yoshidoce2006... Yea he did change the image of the country singer, but there are very few of his type left now. Nashville i clawing its way back to the fore and the rhinestone is creeping back in just a few days ago Taylor Swift who is either here or due here on tour, i saw her billed as the new Queen of country. And that just about says it all for me ...tc
@teddie488 Haus was a rebel and he had a cause. Nobody else is in his position, (A declining product and him being the biggest rising star) or has the grape fruits to do what he did. Waylon gave these young kids the freedom they have, yet they never mention him. Alabama is going to honor him with an album of Waylon hits though. Thankfully the old guys still have respect.
Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Hank Williams Jr may be more popular than Waylon Jennings (and I don't know how) but Waylon just had that voice. I can listen to him all day long. I'd rather listen to him than most of the modern country stars. Some of them ain't worth the charmin Waylon wiped his ass with.
Love Ole Waylon. The only reason Waylon became a big star was because he strong armed the Nashville Sound to get Country Music's first Rock Star Contract. He was a true pioneer. Everyone in Country Music today should be on their knees praying to Waylon Jennings and using their off time to visit and kiss his tomb stone for what they have.
@teddie488 I dont even listen to todays music. It is basically pop music with a fiddle. No originality. At least when the Outlaw Movement began it still resembled Country Music, it was just harder, more masculine. This stuff today doesnt even resemble country music. Waylon and Johnny would be rolling over in their graves.
@teddie488 - wow-did they EVER make a CD of that album? i missed THAT somewhere down the collecting-all-i-could road!! Waylon & John Prine have BOTH been THA MAN for me, musically, for right at 4 decades....
RIP to one of the brightest stars country music has ever seen. It's too bad Nashville won't allow real country to come back. There's still plenty of folks out there doing real country, some of whome (such as Heather Myles) are incredibly talented. But they're a threat to the pop country and country rock market that Nashville is now thriving on. So very few get signed.
great performance great 'sad' voice... just great. I just love Waylon's version, it puts tears in my eyes. and makes my heart rush. I have a shrine in my room for the Highwaymen...they are my gods in country music.
One of my favorite waylon songs the pictures go so well with this video. waylon could take any song and make it his own. Country music needs you waylon
Ya Teddie i agree with you and i really like this song a lot the way Waylon does it it just seems like it would be more of his classic style if he had what i said before you know. But thanks for commenting back
@55centerstage i understand youre point friend. but there is only one waylon like there was only one elvis and so on. thats why they are legends. even his son cannot replace him. its going to take some young man with a lot heart and history of days gone by to bring a old sound in his own style to help us old timers out here that miss the old days. take care and godbless.
Love Waylon but wish they used the classic reverb and phaser effect on guitar like he always does other than the distortion stuff. And the orchestra sound cheap and synthesized and should be real, deep, and full to match his vojce
Waylon musta liked it or you wouldn't of got to hear it ...i loved it, but hey ain't it a good job we aren't all the same life would be so boring ...thanks for the comment
Great song. Waylon really put his heart and soul into it--very autobiographical when you listen to the lyrics. "here I am on the road again, here I am up on the stage again, here I go, playin star again, there I go, turn the page."
A band called Alligator Stew covers this song really good,also.They are on youtube,.

Waylon is in many ways the godfather of Country Music. Before Waylon music was written by corporations and nobody made money on touring. Waylon had the first Country Music Rock Star Contract. Then he brings his old roommate Johnnny Cash in and meets Willie Nelson and brings him in. Country music was never the same after that.

@Yoshidoce2006... Yea he did change the image of the country singer, but there are very few of his type left now. Nashville i clawing its way back to the fore and the rhinestone is creeping back in just a few days ago Taylor Swift who is either here or due here on tour, i saw her billed as the new Queen of country. And that just about says it all for me ...tc

@teddie488 Haus was a rebel and he had a cause. Nobody else is in his position, (A declining product and him being the biggest rising star) or has the grape fruits to do what he did. Waylon gave these young kids the freedom they have, yet they never mention him. Alabama is going to honor him with an album of Waylon hits though. Thankfully the old guys still have respect.

Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Hank Williams Jr may be more popular than Waylon Jennings (and I don't know how) but Waylon just had that voice. I can listen to him all day long. I'd rather listen to him than most of the modern country stars. Some of them ain't worth the charmin Waylon wiped his ass with.

Love Ole Waylon. The only reason Waylon became a big star was because he strong armed the Nashville Sound to get Country Music's first Rock Star Contract. He was a true pioneer. Everyone in Country Music today should be on their knees praying to Waylon Jennings and using their off time to visit and kiss his tomb stone for what they have.

@Yoshidoce2006. Well now his like are a bit thin on the ground now have you
noticed how it is slipping back to the way it was, thank god for at least one budding star in Jamey Johnson.

@teddie488 I dont even listen to todays music. It is basically pop music with a fiddle. No originality. At least when the Outlaw Movement began it still resembled Country Music, it was just harder, more masculine. This stuff today doesnt even resemble country music. Waylon and Johnny would be rolling over in their graves.

RIP to one of the brightest stars country music has ever seen. It's too bad Nashville won't allow real country to come back. There's still plenty of folks out there doing real country, some of whome (such as Heather Myles) are incredibly talented. But they're a threat to the pop country and country rock market that Nashville is now thriving on. So very few get signed.

Ya Teddie i agree with you and i really like this song a lot the way Waylon does it it just seems like it would be more of his classic style if he had what i said before you know. But thanks for commenting back

@55centerstage i understand youre point friend. but there is only one waylon like there was only one elvis and so on. thats why they are legends. even his son cannot replace him. its going to take some young man with a lot heart and history of days gone by to bring a old sound in his own style to help us old timers out here that miss the old days. take care and godbless.

Love Waylon but wish they used the classic reverb and phaser effect on guitar like he always does other than the distortion stuff. And the orchestra sound cheap and synthesized and should be real, deep, and full to match his vojce

Waylon musta liked it or you wouldn't of got to hear it ...i loved it, but hey ain't it a good job we aren't all the same life would be so boring ...thanks for the comment

Great song. Waylon really put his heart and soul into it--very autobiographical when you listen to the lyrics. "here I am on the road again, here I am up on the stage again, here I go, playin star again, there I go, turn the page."
