Music: "Stardust" by Hoagy Carmichael & Mitchell Parish, from Willie's 1978 album of the same name.
I edited about 1:40 from the middle of the song. Buy the CD or download the album from your favorite online retailer to get this & the other wonderful tunes in their entirety & high fidelity.

  • Beautiful! But why so short - no guitar solo?

  • @cartoonhepcat - I was just voting for an artist to draw Willie's portrait, so i kept it brief, but with the STRONG recommendation that anyone who likes this should visit their friendly neighborhood or online music seller and get the whole album. It's really a great collection of songs.

    Thanks for watching & commenting!

  • please check the difference between the definitive willie belson version and the more recent sweet crooner side of merle haggard that i just sent

  • Very nice! I think both versions are quite good!

    Thanks for dropping by!

  • This one goes out to my Mom. I remember practicing all the chords and then going out to Mom's stage under the stars on Chocolate bayou.The beer joint was just a shack like place with about 1 million knick knacks and souveiners inside, with a porch out front that was our stage. It was nothing fancy at all. I then told her I learned this song for you. I played and she liked it. I bet she can see the stars great now that she is in heaven. Love ya mom, always will. PG (You're favorite son)

  • This is a very great version - Willie just lets the words drift so gently.

  • Love this song and love this album.

  • This is by far, the definative version of Stardust..

  • this is my grandfather's favorite song. i used to remember when i was a little girl, grandpa would sit at the piano everyday & play this song while granny would sit beside & sing. it's sad because grandpa died 20 years ago. & that song was never again played in our house the way it was when he was alive.

  • his version is my favorite of this song.......and I have heard many versions as far back as the 1940s

  • Gotta love the old master!

  • 深夜音楽~♪~渋い声~ウイリー・ネルソン♪~

  • Thanks for posting the composer and lyricist. I wig everyone would do that. ( seems like people think that the singers are responsible for the songs.) thanks.

  • My favourite version of this timeless song. The entire album, no exceptions, is outstanding. Just heard the original Hoagy piano version on pianoplaylist here. Recommend it as well. Thank you so much, poster.
