If I had to choose only one vocalist I could listen to the rest of my life it would definitely be Chris Stapleton. And I bet Luke might just agree with me.
A s they said that 7 yes ago he would be the artist they could listen to forever, the most. Imagine how you feel now @mrmwest09. Now millions agree with you. For sure. I do
+Jackson R I've noticed that too.. This effin guy acts like he's a nobody when in fact he's perhaps the most talented musician living right now! Yeah I said it, all around this guy is Gold! Nothing he cant do!
And compose! He is the definition of humble indeed! He has more than earned his right to sign his own da*n songs! He signs them better than the people he wrote them for. Wow, give me some of Chris's southern rock/blues any dam* time!
The girl was a teenager with Cystic Fibrous. I was on the crew who took her there that night. She passed away a few months later. It was a moving day and I was glad I was able to be part of it. I lost my son's father only two months prior to this show. Very moving!
at least she got a good night out near the end vs sitting 24/7 in a hospital... my Mom did that for months before she passed and its simply a terrible existence.
man my dad died 6/2/2010 man after 3 years it still hurts when I heard this song I thought about my dad I cried and cried and cried im a tough Georgia boy but when I heard this I was sweatin tears like I never did in my life I know how you feel man R.I.P Greg Bryan always in memory never forgotten love you dad so long friend
My mom passed away in Sept. I've been off the radar for a bit as far as enjoying music. Heard Luke's version after my mom passed and cried and cried. My mom wasn't a drinker, we never sat on a pier and had a beer, but damn it to he*l if this song doesn't make me ache for her even more.
Chris is one of the most talented and most versatile singers in the business and is a true writing genius. His music is like no other person that I've heard. I am glad he's getting some credit for all of his hard work that he's done. When he finally hits mainstream radio, he's gonna blow up and people will see what I've been talking about for a long time. I might stir a hornets nest here, but Luke's vocals can't shine Chris a light. I agree Jason, he may not be now, but he will be for sure!
Chris did write this song specifically for Luke after Luke lost a family member. But I do want to add that if Luke would say that, half of Nashville would have to say it as well. He has composed for everyone.
So I’m gonna set right here on the edge of this pier……😔💙💛❤️💙💛😩 watch the sunset disappear and drink a beer. So long my friend💙 remember all the times…..WE used too. GOD I MISS YOU‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️💔💔💔
I heard this song when my horse Tonk , of 15 yrs Died .. as they were loading his body on the trailer to take him to the cemetery . He was my love of my life ..what a friend ❤
One of my best friends died in a car crash and they played this song at his memorial. I had never heard it before. Now every time I hear it, it brings a tear to my eye and I reflect on the great times we had. RIP Kyle.
having heard Chris sing now, we all know why Luke didn't let him sing a verse. haha Chris would have shredded this song. Such egos. Chris was behind the scenes for a long time. He's finally getting the credit he deserves. If you haven't looked up his songs, you should.
4:16 he was cool enough to give credit to him by playing along, the two of them, and giving Chris two momentos to solo. I thought that was humble from Luke.
Why does it always have to turn into a pissing contest when both are obviously very talented, they both bring something different to the table. I enjoy watching either or both of them. Relax, take a deep breath, then sit back and enjoy the video
couldn't agree more my friend. playlists and social media are the bane of our existence. I cried when we lost Merle. Not many old schoolers left on this side of the dirt anymore. Chris, Jamey and others, unknown are our only hope
I lost my son July 21st 2023. HE wrapped his truck. I'm still having denial, depression and I don't know, how to get back after this. I ended up in the Hospital 14 days later, I come out with a cardiac issue, my heart is still broken, this song he loved both of thse singers. ❤
We lost our son on March 20, 2014 at the age of 19. The whole family kinda wrapped our arms around this song for him. Luke does a great job with this song, but was surprised to see Chris wrote it, which I had just started listening too. Love yall!!
I have great respect for Mr. Stapleton ad of course Luke. I first heard this song after my son was murdered. This was his song.. Was blown away that Chris Stapleton wrote it. I think Luke could of been a little more respectful to the man who gave him a huge hit... Rock on both brothers.
I can watch this a million times and still be blown away by Chris's talent, even just that little bit at the end. I want him to as famous as he deserves.
No kidding!! (last comment) Talk about gettin shown up!! By a guy who actually writes too! Haha I'm just so glad to see that Stapleton is finally starting to get the recognition he deserves. Wish he got to sing more of it, but still good on Luke for havin the guy up there.
It's sad this is 2013 Chris wrote this song and gave it to Luke and he killed it but if you heard Chris sing it hands down this man kills it!!!!!! Welcome to 2017 Chris is the man in country music!!
this is such a great video! i love seeing Luke Bryan and Chris Stapleton perform this song together. And finding out Chris Stapleton wrote it! had no idea
I started listening to country music because of Chris Stapleton.. but i love Luke Bryan too .. I don't know why u guys act like he sucks .. he makes amazing music ..
And that boys and girls, is how you respectfully but FIRMLY let the world know that you wrote that song, and that this is how it should sound. LoL Best male vocalist out there right now.
Right??? Well, in hindsight we all now see that Chris is 100 times the artist that Luke Bryan is. And has probably outearned in just the last few years. Luke wishes he was Chris Stapleton.
I like luke bryan but that chris an his voice is the one that makes this song an I'm glad he is being pulled up to the front instead of the background singer!! way to go chris!!!!!!
why would he need chris in his ear when he didnt even let him sing till the end my hats off to chris to be so humble with such amazing tallent and a voice second to none
+CJ Bonnette I imagine that you ( like me) got to this video because I searched Chris, not Luke. Had the reverse happened the top comment would be Luke's fans complaining that at a Luke Bryan concert luke isn't even singing.. The internet can't win
I had no idea that Chris Stapleton wrote that song for Luke, I’m like speechless about that right now! And I also know that his brother and his sister are very very very proud of that song, because it’s an honor of them. And it’s gorgeous and beautiful! I love Luke Bryan so much, I wish that I could meet him, that’s my dream to meet him and Keith urban. To be honest! I’m not really a big fan of Chris Stapleton that much, but broken halos and billionaire are the only two favorite songs that I love that’s basically it. I really hope that I don’t get any hate comments for that :-) please please please don’t do that.
People saying Chris is better than Luke: Their two voices aren’t comparable. They both have different sounds, so I don’t know how you can say one is better than the other. They may both sing country music, but they both have very different sounds.
It woulda been sweet to see Chris just start belting it out and have Luke Bryan just stop and watch. But, he knew what was coming and he's such a humble dude.
If I had to choose only one vocalist I could listen to the rest of my life it would definitely be Chris Stapleton. And I bet Luke might just agree with me.
Michael West hahahaha true
A s they said that 7 yes ago he would be the artist they could listen to forever, the most. Imagine how you feel now @mrmwest09. Now millions agree with you. For sure. I do
Chris is the man. So humble in his talents even though he has the most bragging rights cuz DAMN he can sing.
+Jackson R I've noticed that too.. This effin guy acts like he's a nobody when in fact he's perhaps the most talented musician living right now! Yeah I said it, all around this guy is Gold! Nothing he cant do!
And compose! He is the definition of humble indeed! He has more than earned his right to sign his own da*n songs! He signs them better than the people he wrote them for. Wow, give me some of Chris's southern rock/blues any dam* time!
Chris' voice could blow Luke out of the water any day of the week!
Okay and? What does that have to do with this performance
+Hannah Mikulski It was an observation. That is all. Chill the %%#@# out.
I don't know but I try
Fox331 I agree
Fox331 Could hell! It did. 20 seconds of his voice got more of a reaction than Luke did throughout this entire concert
That moment Luke says give it to them 1 time Chris = The chill bumps !!
Shit made me stand up when he hit that last one,
Chris is the only one saving country music!! THANK GOD
check out Cody Jinks...
No way Jamie Johnson hasn't lost it either
The girl was a teenager with Cystic Fibrous. I was on the crew who took her there that night. She passed away a few months later. It was a moving day and I was glad I was able to be part of it. I lost my son's father only two months prior to this show. Very moving!

I Know the Feeling when you loose your dad 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I am glad he's getting some credit for all of his hard work that he's done. When he finally hits mainstream radio, he's gonna blow up and people will see what I've been talking about for a long time. I might stir a hornets nest here, but Luke's vocals can't shine Chris a light. I agree Jason, he may not be now, but he will be for sure!
What Luke really meant to say was: "You go write an amazing song then I'll swoop in, throw my name on it and bedazzle it up".
Subconsciously he's like "Shit, this guy is far more naturally talented than I can ever hope become."
Actually no, He and Chris are good friends and Chris wrote it for Luke in 2008 shortly after Luke's sister, who was Lukes best friend died of cancer.
+Bryan O'connor ohhhh I just thought it was a song bout Luke losing another woman and crying about it
Bryan O'connor ,Bob segar
Chris did write this song specifically for Luke after Luke lost a family member. But I do want to add that if Luke would say that, half of Nashville would have to say it as well. He has composed for everyone.
22 days to the day my brother died in the town he was born in....💔
So I’m gonna set right here on the edge of this pier……😔💙💛❤️💙💛😩 watch the sunset disappear and drink a beer. So long my friend💙 remember all the times…..WE used too. GOD I MISS YOU‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️💔💔💔
chris is one of the few real country artist left
20 days to the day, Morgantown if all places. I love you Cody💙💛
So happy i went to that concert when chris sang it gave me chills, glad someone recorded it so i could get that feeling back!!
I heard this song when my horse Tonk , of 15 yrs Died .. as they were loading his body on the trailer to take him to the cemetery . He was my love of my life ..what a friend ❤
My roots are in Morgantown West Virginia where my dad was from. Now I'm a hillbilly living in Las Vegas loving life
One of my best friends died in a car crash and they played this song at his memorial. I had never heard it before. Now every time I hear it, it brings a tear to my eye and I reflect on the great times we had. RIP Kyle.
Rest in peace kyle
having heard Chris sing now, we all know why Luke didn't let him sing a verse. haha Chris would have shredded this song. Such egos. Chris was behind the scenes for a long time. He's finally getting the credit he deserves. If you haven't looked up his songs, you should.
the people paid to hear Luke sing. get over it
there is a video from another concert where they are both singing it like this one but Chris sings the second verse....so Luke does let him sing on it
His recorded version is so good
Absolutely! Chris is the man! He wrote it, nobody sings it better, especially a twinkle toes!
4:16 he was cool enough to give credit to him by playing along, the two of them, and giving Chris two momentos to solo. I thought that was humble from Luke.
Why does it always have to turn into a pissing contest when both are obviously very talented, they both bring something different to the table. I enjoy watching either or both of them. Relax, take a deep breath, then sit back and enjoy the video
Love this song played it at my buddies funeral he was blood but he was my brother miss him man like u wouldn't believe
couldn't agree more my friend. playlists and social media are the bane of our existence. I cried when we lost Merle. Not many old schoolers left on this side of the dirt anymore. Chris, Jamey and others, unknown are our only hope
Chris Stapleton ROCKS!☆
I lost my son July 21st 2023. HE wrapped his truck.
I'm still having denial, depression and I don't know, how to get back after this. I ended up in the Hospital 14 days later, I come out with a cardiac issue, my heart is still broken, this song he loved both of thse singers. ❤
OMG...Luke is such a good person! Going to the children's hospital and then giving that little girl a shout out! Makes my heart smile!
Chris is a badass
This song came out when I was grieving from my best friend passing away
To my beautiful sister Jane. It’s been 24 years. I’ll never forget that call. Love you DeeDee Girl
We lost our son on March 20, 2014 at the age of 19. The whole family kinda wrapped our arms around this song for him. Luke does a great job with this song, but was surprised to see Chris wrote it, which I had just started listening too. Love yall!!
+Jim C. So sorry to hear. I was surprised too and blown away by the performance
Kevin Daly
Thank you
No luck is the magic of country music
Don’t get wrong 😑 I love Chris stepelton just as much 💕💕💕👍👍👍
ever yr on nov 7th we play that song for my late husband who will be gone 6 yrs coming up! love and miss him
I have great respect for Mr. Stapleton ad of course Luke. I first heard this song after my son was murdered. This was his song.. Was blown away that Chris Stapleton wrote it. I think Luke could of been a little more respectful to the man who gave him a huge hit... Rock on both brothers.
I can watch this a million times and still be blown away by Chris's talent, even just that little bit at the end. I want him to as famous as he deserves.
Your wish came true!
Well... he did...
It's too bad people find the need to tear other people down. If you don't like an artist just keep it to yourself!!
Amazing guys. .. better than a studio recording... no retaking needed
They're playing it all to the right crowd down there in Morgantown.....GOoooo Mountaineers....
Beautiful song, Chris. Thank you!
although maybe not as country as some us would like i still think Luke is one bright spot we have in Country music.
And Carrie Underwood!
A beautiful song, brings back memories
Love you both found you two cause of your music an then a friendship
Happy Birthday Dale. I miss you always and I hope you're smiling somewhere
Might sound crazy but the moment I found out my dad died of cancer... this song played in my head.
Needed this song tonight. RIP my sweet husband. #Forever50
Tears miss you Cody's Momma's Simple Kinda Man 💙
Love you music Luke
No kidding!! (last comment)
Talk about gettin shown up!! By a guy who actually writes too! Haha
I'm just so glad to see that Stapleton is finally starting to get the recognition he deserves.
Wish he got to sing more of it, but still good on Luke for havin the guy up there.

LUKE IS THE ONE SAVING COUNTRY music . Phenomenal voice . ❤❤❤ Luke spreading smiles for miles . ❤❤❤❤❤❤

+Ross Baker Thanks for saving my time. Exactly what I came here for.
+Ross Baker Haha, you nailed it on the head brother!
LMAO Just because you said that I stared and WAITED for that moment. I LOVE Christ Stapleton!
Amy MacLean of y I Blake
HELL YES!
Luke Bryan revealed a legend amen brother amen
And that boys and girls, is how you respectfully but FIRMLY let the world know that you wrote that song, and that this is how it should sound. LoL
Best male vocalist out there right now.
Chris is just sitting there listening to Luke sing thinking "I out sing the shit out of you"
Right??? Well, in hindsight we all now see that Chris is 100 times the artist that Luke Bryan is. And has probably outearned in just the last few years. Luke wishes he was Chris Stapleton.
Simply amazing and SO talented!!! :-)
I like luke bryan but that chris an his voice is the one that makes this song an I'm glad he is being pulled up to the front instead of the background singer!! way to go chris!!!!!!
Kay, Chris wrote that song.....
man i wish i could thumb this up more... chris stapleton is who church was singing about, that country music jesus
WOW...I am gettin' cold chills just listening to this song!!!! AWESOME!!!!
why would he need chris in his ear when he didnt even let him sing till the end my hats off to chris to be so humble with such amazing tallent and a voice second to none
How could you dislike this
wish they had a 💖❤💗 button on here. ALL his songs...W.O.W!!!💞 I'm in love... hmmm😍
more chris damn it !
Thank you so much for posting this ❤
sit down luke and let the legend show ya how to feel a song
Baseball cap on backwards. That shows what he's like. Probably stands in when the sun shines and puts his hand up to keep the sun out of his eyes.
And shades upside down on the brim of the cap. 😄😄😄
I just plain love me some Chris Stapleton
When you have the guy who wrote the song sit in with you for that song, don't you let him sing a verse?
Like what Justin Timberlake did for a song that Chris didn't even write, last CMAs
+CJ Bonnette Chris has the better voice he would dominate.
+CJ Bonnette I imagine that you ( like me) got to this video because I searched Chris, not Luke. Had the reverse happened the top comment would be Luke's fans complaining that at a Luke Bryan concert luke isn't even singing.. The internet can't win
+CJ Bonnette Drink a BEER!!!
Chris is singing. Back up harmony, which is more difficult to do than sing lead. talented man!!
I love both of these guys!!!!!!!
So long my friend until we meet again.
I had no idea that Chris Stapleton wrote that song for Luke, I’m like speechless about that right now! And I also know that his brother and his sister are very very very proud of that song, because it’s an honor of them. And it’s gorgeous and beautiful!
I love Luke Bryan so much, I wish that I could meet him, that’s my dream to meet him and Keith urban.
To be honest! I’m not really a big fan of Chris Stapleton that much, but broken halos and billionaire are the only two favorite songs that I love that’s basically it.
I really hope that I don’t get any hate comments for that :-) please please please don’t do that.
Makes. Me. Think of the old times with all three of my children before my youngest died without the beer of course
All the talent on that stage was on the right
Chris FUCKING Stapleton man. I cannot his voice is a freakin gift he gives me chills every time
Till we meet again Charles T! Love and miss you!
Chris has written almost every recent country hit! WTH is wrong with Nashville and WTH are we just finally getting to enjoy his vocal talent????
jason- agreed Chris could blow him clear out of the Water!!& Luke knows it!He gets all shook in the end!🙌
Luke ur a good singer I love all ur music.
Beautiful song Chris!
I liked this video the second I heard "drink a beer"🍺
concert was awesome last night!
I verry like this song and like him hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Excellent songwriting....
Both are great, but Chris is such a humble dude!
luke s one of the best out there
People saying Chris is better than Luke: Their two voices aren’t comparable. They both have different sounds, so I don’t know how you can say one is better than the other. They may both sing country music, but they both have very different sounds.
You got that right, "That's a singer right there" and a writer...... go figure Nashville.
April 21, 2022
Have a great night and sweet dreams.
💯
best lyrics in 25 yrs easy. I think of my boy who does not talk to me as I age fast
4:00 mark is just amazing. And I love that Luke pays the respect Chris deserves.
Freakn Amazing!!!
Swing it and sway it all night. October 1-2024❤❤
touching song to me anyways but to hear Chris Stapleton on it love it
Chris Stapleton knows he can sing
Chris is fantastic. I'm not normally a fan of Luke Bryan but the two of them together are immaculate
It woulda been sweet to see Chris just start belting it out and have Luke Bryan just stop and watch. But, he knew what was coming and he's such a humble dude.
awesome writing skills..
I love it !!!
thank you for letting me know that chris wrote this song, I didn't know.
