I thought I knew all his songs. I hear a new one all the time. I'm 67 and started listening at an early age. My daddy was 100% disabled during WW-2. He could sure play and sing. I started around 8. All I wanted to do was sing and play Hank's songs. I 😢never got his voice down. Pat, many people hated his songs. I hated the 70s and 80s, and I stayed country I wasn't trying to be big. Lol. Thank you, Hank.
its not about what he did or did not do, its about the man and his music..and his legacy...he brought us one of the greatest country music singers to live,with his son....Hank Jr is carying on what his dad started
My Uncle Harvey who serve with the Canadian Army during ww2 in France would break up when he heard this song. The U.S. were not the only country who lost people....Sad, but truthful, we lost a lot of good people. This comment was directed at SEARCHING FOR SOLDIER GRAVE
Boys no one beats the Hag Waylon Hank jr and sr Johnny cash Ronnie milsap Keith Whitley and so on but yes George is a nice mention and ol Willie Kris Kristofferson
This song in later years was special to my Dad. His brother Robert E.(Elvis) was in the first wave at Normandy, June 6th 1944. Uncle Robert survived the landing and went on to fight in St. Lo, and was KIA August 2nd, 1944. May God bless all of our military brothers and sisters serving today. Please pray for my grandson Aaron, M1A2 tanker leaving in February for the middle east, Thank You....and may " God Bless America ".
I listened to Hank on the radio when I was just a teenager. Loved his music then & still love it today. Love the Luke the Drifter songs too. There is always a message in his songs.
For a man who was only on the professional scenic for some 8 years, his song production was on par with his lonesome wail on the stage, prodigious. He had the heart of a lonesome drifter and he could connect with anyone through his music. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_songs_written_by_Hank_Williams
may you rest in eternal love and peace Mr. Williams. Your candle light was extinguished much to soon. You will forever be the best. No one else even comes close
Hank was as good or better than anything that came out of nashville. hank wrote and sang from his heart. no one in this day of 2011 will ever take his place. turn on the radio today and they all sound alike. hank, webb, lefty, carl, the louvins, and so many more were fantastic true country stars. Piss on the grand old opry if they don't recognize this great man, and piss on branson, you will never be nashville.
He may have died at the chronological age of 29? but a soul that was a thousand years old. Eyes that had seen, ears that heard, words of wisdom spoken and sang.
Hank was a REAL man with an unbelieveable talent...a man with problems like everyone else and to be in the public eye and not be afraid that people know you do have problems makes him stand out...look at the "stars" nowdays...they're told by agents to do this and that for your image.....fuck that...Hank was real....
my uncle who's deceased now used to sing this song, and I will carry on the tradition and keep this beautiful song alive, I didn't know until today who originally sang it .
thomas white -The Bailes Brothers sung this in 1945-46. Backside was As long as I Live. Roy Acuff wrote the song. This was a tribute to WWII. I had the record when it came out, still have the song on cassette. Was 15 year old at the time.
What a beautiful voice & great song, i was going to say what a waste with him dying so young but i should instead celebrate the amazing volume of songs he left us with. I don't get this carry on about him & the opry on the comments on here. . So many non-country singers sung his songs but they never sang at the opry. You can NOT compare a person to a place but we should talk of both as GREAT parts of the history of country music. thank you for posting this
Granny used to say " hear that ol lonesome train whistle blow " and a tear would come to her eye, thinkin about papa in the cold cold ground........ I love Sr. love Jr. to.
may you rest in eternal love and peace Mr. Williams. Your candle light was extinguished much to soon. You will forever be the best. No one else even comes close to the talent in your little toe
Not even close Mr Williams are singers today!I only wish I could have talked to you but now knowing your words like I do Sir ,I have Mr.Williams got to know you!
It pissed me off to see his picture hanging in the new Opry House, big as hell. Exploiting Hank now when they didn't want him back then is unforgiveable.
he was just a drunk and was drunk when he died. but nobody will ever be better a signing I have heard him sing since I was 3 and have never stopped loving his song
as kids our uncle we lost, gave us a love of hank sr and his music nd gave it to his kids also I can sing most of I am so lonesome to this ay and I am 53 and a rock music fan
HANK WILLIAMS JAN.4TH 1953 R.I.P. NEVER LEFT US AND WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN, A SIGING POET,ARTIST ,FATHER, HUSBAND AND GRAND FATHER ......AND HERO WHO WILL ALWAYS LIVE FOR EVER IN OUR HEARTS ,SOULS AND MINDS.......
mac Inlou Your Grandson will and I promise I will pray for his safe return. My uncle served under Patton and marched into Bastone, Germany. And a friend of our family was in Normandy to on the firsGod Bless you and all the miltary men and women. George in Alaska t wave, wonder if they new each other. Small world.
if the good lord is willing, and the creeks don't rise - well there is flooding down in Tx and Nebraska and all across this great land - but until the end.. Get 'mothers best' corn mill washed with water and air for that good ol country cookin' ... and the best pickin' n grinnin' music this side of the Mississippi
The tune to "Little Annie" is very similar to an old song my mother used to sing about a girl whose sweetheart was a sailor that was "drownded in the deep blue sea".
I thought I knew all his songs. I hear a new one all the time. I'm 67 and started listening at an early age. My daddy was 100% disabled during WW-2. He could sure play and sing. I started around 8.

Thank you, Hank.
YOu will never have another singer like Hank.........God bless him
I think the haters ought to get there hearing checked. This is awesome!!!
A MEN
its not about what he did or did not do, its about the man and his music..and his legacy...he brought us one of the greatest country music singers to live,with his son....Hank Jr is carying on what his dad started
He sure packed a lot of livin in 29 years. Always sounded so much older than he actually was. Raw emotion in every song.
My Uncle Harvey who serve with the Canadian Army during ww2 in France would break up when he heard this song. The U.S. were not the only country who lost people....Sad, but truthful, we lost a lot of good people. This comment was directed at SEARCHING FOR SOLDIER GRAVE
so true so did the anzac
My Highest Respect for your uncle. Canada sacrificed a lot of good men. Generations!
This song is about confederate soldiers from american civil war
@@Southernjuggalo63 the lyrics say "Across the ocean" was the civil war fought across an ocean 🤣
@@rodneymasters2002uh
This song could speak for all the wars anywhere in the world.

Hank Williams Sr a awesome singer and song writer,my Dad John Parsons liked,he passed away May 19 2002,was66
He is the best country singer to ever live

Boys no one beats the Hag Waylon Hank jr and sr Johnny cash Ronnie milsap Keith Whitley and so on but yes George is a nice mention and ol Willie Kris Kristofferson

HANK WILLIAMS WAS AN ALWAYS WILL BE THE GREATEAT SINGER THAT EVER LIVED,UNTIL HE RETURNS TO FINISH HIS JOURNEY.
Hank has more talent being dead than any so called "country music" artist today.

You are correct.
Patsy Cline too.

Never heard this song before. Been a fan for decades. But never heard this one. The great one.
Me neither I'm thinking it's his voice and bunch of computer stuff to make it but it's a awesome song
I listened to Hank on the radio when I was just a teenager. Loved his music then & still love it today. Love the Luke the Drifter songs too. There is always a message in his songs.
Amen, the greatest singer of all times , it’s sad what his wife put him through. All because he was the lead singer of all time
Good Lord, he could sing.
wilma Lee Cooper does it well too,

There is just nobody can sing like Hank Sr. He put his heart and soul into it. He is missed so much.

I don't care who you are.. his voice pierces your heart..

Lucife.

Hank Williams is my absolute favorite musician is this song is my favorite by him. We all miss you hank.
Far too many have forgotten WWII. Were it not for the sacrifice of so many you youngster would be working for bread and water for the Nazi's.

Care of a amaryllis
He may have died at the chronological age of 29? but a soul that was a thousand years old. Eyes that had seen, ears that heard, words of wisdom spoken and sang.
I thought I heard them all, if this is Hank, bless my soul.
Thanks great music and photos. I appreciate very much!! I need a dose of Hank everyday to remind me of my love of classic country.
god bless our veterans
Wow, searching for a soldier’s grave! only Hank can do!!👍
The Master puts his all in every song!

Wish we had singers be and writers like Hank today
Wish Mr. Williams was here!!.Think he would be a Great judge!!
Hank Williams drank due to cronic back pain from being thrown from a horse. He passed away a couple of towns over from where I live.
Hank is head & shoulders above the Opry
Hank does not need abuse to say how great he was
