It's okay to show and feel anyway The song makes you feel that's sincerity and that's what real country is its why they sing and write the songs that's also why it's very hard to find these day best wishes
Really ... and honestly ... there is Willie Nelson ... and then everyone else!!! In my high school yearbook I wrote that my ultimate fantasy was for him to sing this to me, while I am sitting alone at a table at the front of the stage in a saloon somewhere. In my mind ... I am there right now ... and it's freaking amazing!!!
The embodiment of the western American spirit .............the Mozart of country music is Willie Nelson ..........seldom does a person like this come along !
Sitting here. Feeling like crap. Everything seems to go wrong lately. But I can count on Wiilie and his songs to bring me comfort and peace! I so love this song. One of the many.
Willie looks great and sounds even better in this Austin City Limits from 1976, trigger just has a small hole in it at this point lol. Love the piano over the top from the 2min mark. Such a good song, one of Willie's best.
But, it is true. Hildergard 1098-1179 Telemann 1600's Beethoven 1700's Those are only three of the great German composer's, and we still listen to them today. How can we not? "Music" is already written in our soul, and their 😮music transcends time, race, culture, language...@flockyh3549
The sentiment is beautifully stated. I remember when I first heard this song 1974 or 1975 - on my back on the floor listening and crying. I still have to stop the tears.
That hole in his guitar grew with his hair and beard. I loved it when this man would wander into Floore's Country Store just because he wanted to "air it out" musically. We would all be two-stepping or drinking beer and in he would walk, sometimes with his whole band, so he could work out some new material. Of course, it turned into a jam session with the band hired to play that night, and he would play all his classics, but back then they weren't really classic, yet. Willie Nelson is a kind person and very giving, as evidenced by his simply wanting to play for free on a regular basis. He loves his fans. He loves pretty much anyone, even if you disagree with him. He is a gentle soul, and I wish more humans were like him. I loved growing up in San Antonio and being a part of the very laid back social setting that predominates there.
#Holton345 I have seen Willie in concert on the patio at Flores at least three times. The place is small so of course it is always standing room only. Each time I saw some familiar faces standing there in front of the stage with me. I remember a young woman in particular because she had a very colorful tattoo of an owl on her chest. One time pre concert a very talkative man who said that he was a math teacher at the Nothside ISD was the first to light up a joint. Another time it rained for about an hour during the concert but Willie never skipped a beat. 😍 Love that Willie!
I was born in the Bronx and raised in the Bronx. I am a lover of the older country musicians. Willie, Johnny, Kenny!! Oh of course there are others. In fact I like ALL types of music. ❤❤❤
Ive always felt this song deeply. Willie asked my mother to marry him in the 70s. She worked at Gilleys and he went there a lot. He came to my house once with a box of band t-shirts. I was too small to fit one. My mom left when I was young, a few years later. I always missed. She took her took her life in 2019. I think of my time with her hearing this. 😢
Man.....if I had a dollar for every time my parents listened to this when I was a kid....but the funny thing is, I actually love this song now....and when I was about 15 I really got into the album he did called Stardust.... absolutely beautiful!!! Maybe the black hash helped....
Last year in Wichita I made my kids go see Willie in concert at our River fest - they were blown away at an 89 year old man on on stage and singing songs that Everyone knew and loved - I hope that helps pass this music on forever ….or at least another 100 years ….😢
I'm never get tired of Willie Nelson singing his beautifiul song. Reminds me of my maternal beautifiul Grandmother Anderson. She had the most beautiful sky blue eyes 💙💙💙. Thank you Willie Nelson.
This song is heartbreaking for me as I lost my husband just a couple of years ago after 50 years of marriage. However when Wilĺiie sings the last verse I know there is happiness waiting. ❤
Jesus that's a brutal song I know it's a love song, but my dad pass away in 2021 but every verse reminds me of him like the verse ( we will never meet again and only memories remain ) as my dad called it that's the hurt'en music.

Just one ole Willie...so many greats have come and gone, but with many never to be forgotten! My late husband loved Willie, before I did, I use to kid him about it, but he was wiser than I was, Guess it took more living for me to learn to truly listen, still learning
My Sydney band opened for The Highwaymen across Australia in 1991. Willie was as cool as they come, as were the rest of them. A very memorable two weeks.
🌷Wow ! A young Willie!💖So HANDSOME💥😊Thzts the only time I saw him young.80 now&still HANDSOME with that special Willie charcharer he turned him self intoI love it!You can pic him out of a crowd !🎸💖😇🙏🌷
😢 I watched The RedHeaded Stranger with my Father in Law recently before he passed we both Love Westerns and Willie Nelson now I’ll never think of either without thinking of Him.
Ive been partial to this song since i was a little boy, as my parents would sing this as a duet. Daddy would play the Autoharp, momma sang alto, dad baritone and their voices harmonized so well together. Now their both in their 80's and cant sing anymore for Momma has Spasmodic Dysphonia (voice tremors) so only the memories remain yet through the ages i will always remember.
I use to sing this to my mom wen I was 2 years old loud and on the road again somewere over the rainbow 🌈 I thought willy Nelson was the guy that made all the music for everyone turned out after I grew up to be true think of how music would be without willy Nelson patsy cline jimi hendrix James brown prince stevey wonder Aretha Franklin bb king and hank Williams gorge Jones the Beatles rush garth brooks slayer satriani Metallica red hot chili peppers think how empty it would be they made a print 🖨 on the world but willy he's like my hole Damm family I love that man I wish him and his family Nothing but the best of God's blessings over flowing 🌎
We’ve seen him three times, twice in small East Texas venues. He is so much fun, and he interacts with his audience. My son and I were so tickled to get an acknowledgement from him, waving at him from the audience. I love how he sings his hits, Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die, then at the end, we all “have church” with lively gospel sing-a-long. You can’t help but love this man, and I’m sad that he’s nearing the end of his life, but a life well-lived. God willing, we can keep him just a while longer. Love you, Willie Nelson.

This song was a regular in our band's sets. My stepfather sang this to my mother shortly after they met. And when I apply it to the moments in my life, that have come up more than my fair share of times, I change it to "Green Eyes Crying in the Rain."

Hi from Davenport, England Willie. Thanks for the music. The songs that make us dance, make up sad, make us happy, but mostly for the ones that bring our memories. Bless you, mate.
"Live on The Midnight Special 1980" war Willie Nelson mit dieser Version am Zenith seines Schaffens angelangt! Einzigartig die live Darbietung mit dem excellenten Gittaresolo! 👍👍👍
Is it ok to cry every time I hear this song? I'm 67 years old. Brings back memories of the only girl I ever loved back in 1977. Miss you Debbie.
And people ACTUALLY say men aren't emotional! I have known many to carry a torch until it burns their hand to a charred, unrecognizable stump.
Of course it's ok to cry, especially if the song touches the heart
It's okay to show and feel anyway The song makes you feel that's sincerity and that's what real country is its why they sing and write the songs that's also why it's very hard to find these day best wishes
It’s OK to cry ANY TIME……. But I’m pretty sure it’s a natural thing with Willie
🥹🥹🥹🥹
Dad and I sang this every weekend, dads gone now but I still sing it every Sunday in his memory. Miss you dad.
Sometimes you forget what has really affected you and then something like this comes up and hits you right between the eyes...
I've been getting really into Willie lately and wow, I was not expecting to cry today.
Your so right
Really ... and honestly ... there is Willie Nelson ... and then everyone else!!! In my high school yearbook I wrote that my ultimate fantasy was for him to sing this to me, while I am sitting alone at a table at the front of the stage in a saloon somewhere. In my mind ... I am there right now ... and it's freaking amazing!!!
The embodiment of the western American spirit .............the Mozart of country music is Willie Nelson ..........seldom does a person like this come along !
So he adopted the style fm cornila3
I can’t believe Willie is still alive in his 90s.
It’s going to be a very sad time when he goes. ❤
Sitting here. Feeling like crap. Everything seems to go wrong lately. But I can count on Wiilie and his songs to bring me comfort and peace! I so love this song. One of the many.
I feel ya. I haved loved this tune for all 46 years of my life. It could be worse. I wish you the best, Debbie.
@@georgeadams350 thank you! Sincerely
It's better. There is a beautiful sunshine after the rain! Just have to hang on and keep believing in the good.
I do hope things have turned around for you. Always know Jesus loves you and Willie’s songs for backup🤭Praise Our Lord Jesus for both 🙏
@@kendrawilton6914 Amen!!! Faith sees us through all. God's grace is abundant.
Still listening to this classic in 2022. My Dad's favorite song of all time!! Happy 88th angel birthday to my Dad Robert O'Connell 💙💙💙
Hello 👋
how’re you doing? I bring a warm greetings from Atlanta
It was my dad's favorite song we played it at his funeral he be 79 June 10 2023
You had a smart dad who knows he had a beautiful and proud daughter..
This is one of the best country songs ever written and sang. Thank you Mr Nelson for your contribution to country music..
IS the best country song imo.
Thanks to Fred Rose for writing this song in the 40's
Willie looks great and sounds even better in this Austin City Limits from 1976, trigger just has a small hole in it at this point lol. Love the piano over the top from the 2min mark. Such a good song, one of Willie's best.
I guess its alright,im 77,still cry everytime I hear it too!
Hello how are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
God bless you. I hope your doing ok.
Damn I’m 21 years old, total city boy but I would’ve loved to see Willie Nelson in 1976 at Austin City Limits. Such a great voice
That's one of the things that are great about UA-cam.
Music knows no boundaries ❤
@@dreamcatcher7939 schön wäre es ❤
But, it is true.
Hildergard 1098-1179
Telemann 1600's
Beethoven 1700's
Those are only three of the great German composer's, and we still listen to them today. How can we not? "Music" is already written in our soul, and their 😮music transcends time, race, culture, language...@flockyh3549
I think it's one of the most beautiful country songs ever written.
I agree.
45 years later....still brings a tear to my eye.
Seeing this, Willie was younger here than I am now. WTH???
The sentiment is beautifully stated. I remember when I first heard this song 1974 or 1975 - on my back on the floor listening and crying. I still have to stop the tears.
now 47
I remember when I fell in love with this song and it still brings tears in my eyes.
That was today for me.
Man. The descending chord line he plays at the end of the solo is genius.
def gets ur attention
I'm 72 and still have my blue eyed beauty after 45 yrs.
RIP "Little Sister" Bobbie Nelson. Absolute Legend
TY a great sorrow :(
It raining here and my Blue eyes ARE crying in the rain... memories, memories, memories...1976. What a Year that was.

Remarkable performance, subtle, understated, perfection.
My Grandma’s favorite song. Hard to believe it will be 15 years since we lost her this September. This song always reminds me of her.
Born 75 & this is pure bliss
So grateful
Hello how are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
Makes my blue eyes cry each time I listen to Willie sing it
My ex wife recently passed from cancer, every time I perform this song, I’ll think of her
To all of the fans of WILLIE NELSON, Good Evening!
You have a good evening also Dear Fan👍☮️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😇.
Good evening buddy

As I listen to this again tonight, I fight back tears of possibly living in this world without Willie on tour. I adore this man.
Wunderschöner Song, Willie Nelson für immer. ❤❤❤❤❤

2023 and Willies still going strong. This is anthem of my childhood
Watched and listened to this video dozens of times before yet never liked never subscribed. What a shame. Forever lasting music legends.
His bass lines on that acoustic is killer. The solo tone is remarkable.
Love Willie Nelson. Beautiful song.❤️🥰🤠🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️
Artistic perfection. Happy 90th, Willie!
He is in a class of his own he is so special
First album I listened to back in early 80’s caught my heart forever. I love you and all your music Willie Nelson.

We are so lucky to have him and sharing the same land.
Thank you Mr. NELSON
Willie Nelson does the grandest version of this song!
1976. 1979. 2023. God, I love every live performance of this. And "Angel Flying Too Close...". And "Ain't It Funny". And...
Gosh. He was clean cut
In 1975-76 I was sitting in Les Amis Cafe in Austin, Texas listening to this song.
Wunderschönes Lied.Super.
Love this song, I saw him in Albany NY, yrs ago, and also in Poughkeepsie NY, he is just great , God Bless..
Esse homem tem uma voz de ouro
