Exellent - listen to how rowdy the crowd is at the beginning. Then, listen how quickly they quiet down when he starts singing. The aplause at the end says he obviously won them over, most of whom probably hate country music.

I've always loved Beck for his quirkiness, but am thrilled to see him pay tribute in a traditional way.

Don't get me wrong, this is an awesome cover, but he DID fuck up some of the lyrics...

@joemcantrellakajmc Dude give credit where credit is due.  Clearly George Jones Is the man and Beck does a great job of paying TRIBUTE. Stop the hate. Such ignorance only makes you look STUPID.

[LordRockfish]

nicely done. . . he clearly shows respect. . . A+

George Jones IS THE MAN AND YOU SUCK

@kidjon Bwahah, you really don't see the blatant irony in a Beck fan telling a George Jones fan to "leave great music to the big boys"? Thanks for the laugh, fucktard - that's one for the books. It also succinctly establishes who the snot-nosed one of us really is. I'm surprised you managed to go without your mommy's titties for the time it took to complete your post. But I'll let you go right back to sucking now, douche.

[kidjon]

@AuH2O I am surprised you can read. Yes, Beck nailed this song. Now, go have your mommy wipe your snotty nose and leave great music to the big boys. Ignorance must make your life bliss you eff-tard.
