Jimmy was just too cool for words.
Jimmy gave my family and I so many memories of concerts and his music is literally our family soundtrack. I find myself silently crying and mourning the memories that won’t be made. I hope it’s pretty up there Jimmy 🦜⛵️😢
Right, the party is OVER
Jimmy was so authentic.....that's what really drew us in.
Smooth sailing w/beautiful sunsets Jimmy. Thanks for all the memories, good times, good times.
Such a huge loss for the music industry. He always seemed to be just a great human being. Seeing him live several times I can say he was one of the best concerts out there. A fun fun time everyone has from teenagers on up to 80’s. It’s like everyone loved jimmy! Rest in Paradise Jimmy!!
You couldn't have Said it better. I'm so glad I got to see him several times
And have been a big fan. For many years. So hard to accept.
We need more cats like Jimmy.
Find them and raise them up.🤘
You will be missed prayers for your family and friends❤️🙏🏻☮️✝️🎈
Likeable music and, by all accounts to those who knew him, a decent fellow. He may have left this earth but he just may be hanging with Capt. Tony and Jerry Jeff to name two. RIP
The world is a darker place now without Jimmy in it!
cool
58 yrs old.
The tune helps to take responsibility.
... It's own damn fault...
See you in the other side Jimmy.
WoW!
PUT A SONG OF HIM SINGING WHILE EATING BUFFET IN A BUFFET LINE !!!
This man had it all figured out! Fantastic work life balance. Thanks for all the fun, your music will live on forever my friend.
Amazes me this was him 41 years ago and that smile and twinkle in his eye never changed. Love ya Jimmy! Rest in paradise 🌴
He made people happy. RIP Buddy.
From the beginning….just Jimmy being himself. As the saying goes, you never work a day in your life when you love what you do, he clearly never worked a day in his life ❣️

Well done Captain ⚓️
His charisma comes through here, there was just something about him, there will never be another.
So ironic. I love how he is just him.
Absolutely Beautiful l!!!💚💜💜💛💛❤️💛
Nice interview and conversation that's a true man he sure loved life. Bless him he was blessed by the sea. No where better to be.
Like Dale Earnhardt - Jimmy is unreplaceable - They're will never be another one !!! RIP JB
What a great guy! Love this
He had a hit with Come Monday but learned quickly the music business was not in his best interest. Made money and toured on his own terms! Smart man
When I see these 80s clips I realize how much Jimmy lost his Southern drawl over the years. Rip legend
Love you Jimmy! Thanks for all of the great times!!!
Although his music is not my cup of tea, I enjoyed a few of his songs. But God bless you Jimmy Buffett for all the joy and good times you brought to your loyal fans over all those years. R.I.P. Jimmy
Rest in Peace! 🌸
I hope Jimmy Buffet Rest In Peace. 😢 ❤ 😊 He was a Hugh legend. Loved his songs.
My family, including my adult children, went to Key West in May, 2023, and we introduced them to Jimmy and went to Margaritaville! We are all mourning his passing. I saw him in concert in the 80s and will ever be a Parrot Head! Rest in Peace, Jimmy! And War Eagle! (He did attend Auburn)
My mother is 80....she's never heard of him
@@Former_Pastor my mom is 82. She knows all about him and loves his music
Jimmy left a great legacy! Margaritaville I've concluded isn't always a place but a state of mind.
,,,,,best hippie i grew up listening too..............❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How I know Jimmy Buffet, is due to my Dad, a Parrothead, always plays his music out by the pool at our house every summer, at an outdoor bar next to it. My siblings and I have so many memories of just floating out there relaxing, every summer. Just warm bliss and a cold drink. He and my Mom would always go to a Buffet concert very other year too. Unfortunately, I was either too young, or just never got the chance. But I love his music nonetheless. Cheeseburger in Paradise always has me craving a meaty cheeseburger.
What a guy.
I'm just a few years younger than Jimmy but I always thought he'd be round like forever. The morning I heard the news I was surprised that I felt so sad. I felt like I was gonna cry but I didn't. He was a sweetheart of a guy and we'll all miss him
I shed some tears over the weekend as I went back and listened to my favorite songs of his, as well as a few that I had forgotten about.
I’ve never ever shed a tear for a public figure before, but losing Jimmy was like losing an old friend.
I fell in love with his music in 1975 when “Come Monday” came out. I was 14yo then. I’m 62 now.
Jimmy’s music was like the soundtrack to my life. My late husband and I met in college and we actually bonded through our mutual love of JB’s music and lifestyle.
We went to many of his concerts through the 80’s and 90’s (until my husband died).
We learned how to sail together. My hubs got his pilot’s license. We were researching the “live aboard” lifestyle, even how to homeschool any future children we might have while sailing around the world (this was PRE-INTERNET days in the 80’s).
Anyway, Jimmy’s music was an inspiration for how we wanted to live our lives, as well as his “joi de vie.”
I, too, felt somewhat surprised at the depth of the grief that I felt this past weekend when I heard the news of his passing. It felt like a “gut-punch.”
And it truly felt like I’d lost an old friend.
I’m just so thankful that he left us so much music to enjoy… recorded shows that we can watch.
We were lucky, indeed, that this man shared his many talents with us for 5+ decades.
Rest in paradise, Jimmy. And thank you for the many wonderful memories and experiences. Life was better, easier and a LOT more FUN because you shared your talents with us.
God bless and Godspeed JB. I hope you’ve found “that one particular harbor,” and that they have great cheeseburgers and Margaritas in paradise. We Parrot Heads will always love you and carry your music and your poetry with us in our hearts. 💔
Rest in peace Jimmy Buffett. You will be in our hearts forever.❤
Jimmy Your Music is My escape from stress and bs God Bless You R.I.P

Rip James William Buffett, you will be missed
My late husband was a huge fan of vacations and enjoying warm tropical water. Most of our vacays were for scuba diving. He loved the blue water around the Keys.
What a terrific interview!
How he doing!? In my Wendy Williams voice
Sail on Captain : "HOIST THE COLORS !!!"
Jimmy was great 🙏❤⛱!
He was a good one.
Such a nice guy❤
RIP 🙏
It’s amazing that he created the Margaritaville retirement communities do people can experience that world.
I had never seen this before. Thanks so much for sharing. Jimmy’s been going a little over a year and it’s still hurts. It is such a blessing to have all of these performances and interviews available on UA-cam.
I had no idea Huell Howser worked with Entertainment Tonight. Huell and JB. Two legends that will forever be missed.

Thanks Jimmy,
Sail on sailor
He fleeced his fans for every single dollar. His legacy is mass consumerism. He always ripped off the fans. Not a great kegacy
He never forced me to buy his albums or T-shirts, I did it by choice because I love the music and his show.
@@pqtus4557 he preyed on your gullibility stupidity and drunkenness
Trump does the same to all of his followers and he NEVER came close to giving anything in return, like JB did. What is your point again?
You’re welcome to go back to Milli-Vanilli,….
Yours is the only negative thing I’ve read since September 1. And I’ve read everything I could find. We loved Jimmy Buffett and he loved us back with his shows, concerts, even the merchandise. He gave us what we wanted and often what we needed.
