I’m 87 never tire of listening Johnny cash - amazing
I am 88 I remember it too
And able to comment on UA-cam, Top Men ❤
22 and listening
79 and remember it all too. Saw Willie in 2003.
I am an old man now. Listened to these guys all my life. What an absolute joy to hear them together. I envy those who had the chance to see them live. Cheers!
I am in the middle of my Life and i have to choose which way, but i feel it. Greetings!!
What do you consider 'old'?

In the 1970s my uncle tended bar at a honky tonk in Bakersfield CA. He got to see the likes of Johnny Cash, Meryl Haggard, Buck Owens and guys like them perform live. I was just a kid but I remember his stories.
My son had a horse he loved and rode. After my son passed a few months later his horse died. This song reminds me of him. RIP my son Julian🙏❤
Ride In Peace, Julian❤
It is the saddest thing when the child goes before the parents. I feel for you. I hope you can get through the pain
Four years ago yesterday, my brother suddenly passed away. Just like that, fell like an autumn leaf in front of my parents. How in the name of everything that its holly and good and wholesome in this world is this fair and how can I ever console them? No parent deserves such an ordeal, least of them these two loving, caring, tender parents like mine … yet here we are … such is the fate of some, bile bitter ….
Amém 🙏
SORRY CHAP ALL THE BEST FOR NOW
RIP Johnny Cash
When I use to be in charge of a Homeless Kitchen we had a Homeless Man that we called Willie he was an awesome guitar player and he would play this song while 50 homeless people would eat. I called him Willie, he would come down from the Mountains of the town with a mule and wagon, I gave him 10 pairs of socks my Hub did not need and a leather jacket. One day I found out he passed so this song is very special to me.
He will live on in your memory and comment. Sounds like quite a guy.
There are many talented people around us but we just don’t know it, some people have all the lucks whilst other just got nothing right in life... life is unfair!! 💔
Hello Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️

There's not many like that anymore; and this country is poorer for it. I remember a man named Mocha, who used to ride his horse into town, when I was a teenager, in Northern California.
Very nice story b glad you knew him and you will see him again 😉
Its really wholesome to see so many different languages in the comment section, it goes to show how unifying good music can be in these turbulent times. Rock on, friends!
In the end, we are all human. Even if we don't understand or agree with eachother.
Es wird immer Menschen mit gutem Musikgeschmack geben!!! Es ist egal wo sie leben,und welche Sprache sie sprechen.👍👍👍
@@linusvanpelt5277 Ja, genau!
"On horses snorting fire"
This performance is amazing and awesome.
Betui habaq ang
One of the best Western themed songs ever made!
Linda demais ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
We will never see the likes of this talent ever again,
I don't always listen to The Highwaymen. But when I do, so do my neighbors!
Ohhhhh yeah.
I feel.you and so do my neighbors
Hahaha good one! And you go brother.
@@BeckVMH LOL
To quote someone else " my neighbors liked it so much they threw a brick through my window so that it would be louder"
All you see is languages from all around the world in this comment section. That is how amazing the Highwaymen were. R.I.P. Johnny and Waylon.
That’s not Waylon. That’s willie Nelson
@@dkssadeyes but Waylon is there too
@@dkssadeyes Waylon is dead. Like there are 4 members of the Highwaymen. are you good?
Reggie Young died too, the lead guitarist...
@@dkssadeyes Willie Nelson is not dead !! Just Johnny CASH and Waylon Jennings from the original band have gone away.
I swear and promise that I will make my child experience all this music ❤ and when I come back here with him I will see this comment.
MY 8yr old loves this song. Once he hears the intro.. hes all JHONNY CASH mode. This young generation must never forget good music.
people probably had no clue at the moment what a truly special moment in time they were witnessing
Most knew .
Yeah, they saw the four horsemen of country music
How do you know
They prob do, but their sentiment for it is mature.
No, they knew.
The mount Rushmore of country music
Best description ever
To true to true
Well said
@Thomas Allison Yeah as I recall Johnny was the only one of the group who tried the spit and polish back in the day and he did okay, but once he went his own way like a true Outlaw, the rest was history.
true
Only problem; the song is not long enough.
🤣🤣🤣….you want it to be 1 day long???
Exactamente lo que pienso, debería durar 2 o 3 minutos más
The problem is actually that not all four are singing.
AMEN!!
Back when Country Music was Real 😎🖤
😎 I love Cowboys and wild eyed horses!
As a devout metalhead, this is absolutely amazing. Love this song
I have heard metal bands cover this in the 90s and it was magical.
@@Iansco1 I’ve actually been thinking about doing a metal cover with my band I think it would be fun
There are songs that transcend all genres and tastes becoming legendary, even if you dislike the genre, you will hear them and enjoy the memories that come with it
Metahead too Bro ! And this is marvelous ! \m/
@@Wrathchild612 facts
Crazy how authentic music back then was! Real instruments and real voices, so powerful!
*YAWN* Get new material, there's plenty of authentic music today, you're just too stubborn to give it a chance.
Se nos están escapando los grandes !.
To be fair it's quite hard to do something original/new nowadays.
@@abc_0_10_11 This whole Highwaymen concept was nothing original either, it's just powerful re-interpretation mostly but done exactly right. They hardly had any original songs as a group. It just works, that's all.
@@mrand3r50n3 Surely you are right, I don't even know that much about the history of country music. I was just speaking in general.
Nobody can get as deep and soothing as "The Man in Black".
The talent on that stage is legendary.
Man, this version always gives me chills. It is so beautiful!
it is the best rendition of this song you will ever hear. bar none.
Somebody else has said so, but I have heard like 20 versions of this song and this is the best ever rendition, makes even the hair on my beard raise up.

❤UM legado para a eternidade ! 🙏🥰❤💋👏👏👏🇧🇷
Я с России, Музыка огонь!!! ❤
One of the most iconic country and western songs you are ever likely to hear. Absolutely brilliant
👌
overrated 😊
This song still gives me chills! My mom used to play this on an organ complete with hoofbeats!
The last good Country
From time to time, i just need to hear it again......beautiful song! ❤🌹😊
There are more legends on this one stage than in all the Grammy Award Shows in the past 20 years combined.
1:22 Shoutout to the guitar player that had Johnny and Waylon staring at him point blank through that solo.
Ice in his veins!
No problem for Reggie Young i think
Reggie Young has played on recordings with all these guys already.....and then some.
I was just about to comment about Reggie. What a fantastic session guitarist! He knows when to shut up and when to play. He's like a living sidechain compressor: As soon as someone is singing, he stops playing, and not in an awkward way. He anticipates when the singers come in and adjusts his phrasing accordingly. And the way he's changing his tone. Just masterful. And I love how he looks like a damn truck driver who somehow just happened to be brought up on stage.
I think he looked and played very cool !
He been playing for them for so many years. He knows his job and does it well.
Time goes too fast. Thank you for the great music! Rest in peace!
Just imagine listening to this live... What a shame I wasn't even born :(
I love the vocals off Willy Nelson in this live performance, he really nailed it. What an artist, what a legend.
Amen to Willie!
Absolutely
I'm not the biggest Willy Neslon fan but this song suits his voice so good. What a collab
It’s amazing how accurate his pitches are. Not my style, either, but he’s got a great voice.
when you were asked last minute to perform and had just enough time to grab that old half broken guitar on your way out...
Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, both legends. Their voices together make it special.
Pppll
Well thanks to UA-cam, guys like us can watch some great shows, I didn’t have the money to go to these live shows and now I do and here comes covid..
@@buildindian8169 I wasn’t alive too see these shows sadly ( 17 )
Can you even for a second think if Johnny Cash, Willie and Elvis on stage
Jerry Lee Lewis. Willie would have been the young guy but the rest of them tour togather.
Hey pal what about Waylon?
I get chills listening to these legends!!!😎💪🇺🇸🙏🎸
I am from Fuckin Serbia but love to listen to these legends
Johnny cash is and forever will be a iconic legend. Rest In Peace Johnny, you’re forever loved.
@@bm6232 you replied to yourself?
Oops someone commented earlier and I said I agreed with it but I guess they deleted it
Imagine the feeling that the people attending this concert had! Just amazing performance from the LEGENDS of country music and country rock.
My father got to see them in 1991, so jealous
Born 2000, years to late ,but Im glad I born in the internet era.
One legend flying around Kiev and keeping save Ukraine sky like sky ghost raider. 😍
I remember watching as they sang City of New Orleans and the loud ruckus response when Willie shouted Good Morning America? How are you?
@@AB-fb5om Ukraine haven't used any aircraft in combat for months, most have been destroyed or have no airfield to fly from
This was played at my best friend funeral great song❤️
Could you imagine the privilege to hear these men like this! I am hearing my father saying this is the best music I would hear. I doubted. He was right.
In over 60 years and still never heard anyone who has got a guitar to sound as soulful as trigger Willie Nelson's guitar
Yeah and Reggie who is playing most of this song also has a unique thing
It's just a 12 string bro
When Johnny Cash voice starts you know this was sent from heaven.
Aggreed my dude
Gives me goosebumps
Simply the best
Yippee high hey ..
Couldn't agree more, brings a tear to a glass eye that man.
What an amazing combination of two unique and iconic voices!
The era of real music, real artist. 😊😊😊
Some of the best guitar players, songwriters and iconic singers the world has ever heard
I love this. When you hear their wonderful voices it's easy to understand why they had such long careers.
*have. Willie is still going!
Absolutely
Wow have just discovered this...what a band, every instrument played to perfection...drums, sax, bass and piano...sensational..... the best song i have heard for years...i want more..
im a black dude and boy do i love country music im in love with this real american feel
Cheers!
@jpeezyot: I've no wish to be rude my friend, but what has skin colour got to do with great music?
This looks like it could have been filmed yesterday
Alex Fusca, exceptional quality for being 30 years old
They had quality cameras in the 90s
That is film for you, literally they try and make digital today look like film
The magic of real film as compared to video (Betacam et al) from the same era.
That's the advantage of shooting on film.
Brings back good memories of my father that has now passed away 9 years ago. He would play his guitar and we would watch and listen to music together. I miss him dearly
Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson - Imagine the feeling of being one of these 4 guys and having the other three being your bandmates. Yeah... neither can I - some things just aren't for mere mortals to experience.
This is so good. I must have listened to this 1000 times. Never gets old.
My dad loved this song. Miss him more than words could express. Love him
I still love it lol
Same here.
💙🖤💙
Your Father lives on with your memories of Him, all of you. Some are not lucky enough to know their Fathers. Be Happy, Be Glad, Be Bursting with Joy for it, I am certain your Father's would want that as well.

A stage full of stars. Doesn't get any better!
First heard this song on the BBC in the UK in the late 1940's. Still my all time favourite and still sends shivers up my spine
This is the true America we all love! Greetings from Greece
true america = love is just so wrong. thats like saying u love nazi germany

Good ol country
Great musicians . The Beatles of Country Music. I envy those who got to see those guys at a concert. R i P..Johnny and Waylon
@MrBBaron. They make the Beatles sound like local amateurs.
This is legit the best version of this song
More than 20 years ago and all throughout my childhood my dad Jerry Miller used to sing and play this on his guitar. I still remember the picture the words painted and I felt there were really Ghost Riders in the Sky 🖤 RIP daddy 😢 Mr. Cash and Waylon
Legends Never Die
Great sounding guitar sound
An absolute magical classic that transcends all music genres, ethnic groups , langauages, and ages.
Because it is simply great. Nothing less.
I see all languages here, spanish, French, ( and what I presume to be) Mandarin, Japanese, Russian, and Italian
Завораживает и притягивает слушать снова и снова ..... Браво.
thank you to the great musicians who played in this live: reggie young on guitar, mickey raphael on harmonica, and the others
When I first listened to this song I was on a very dark moment of my life. I was going through depression and anxiety and I remember how well this song made be few. I'm glad I came across it again, 2 years after that low point my life, to say I'm doing extremely well now. Thanks The Highwaymen for such a perfect version of this legendary moment.
Music always enlightens the soul...
hey pal u ok ?
@@michaelwhittaker5432 yep
I lost my daughter few yrs ago to brain cancer, I too n still struggling, music can file your heart with joy, brother your not alone, just reach out there lot good caring people out there, world full love it’s just sad sometimes we don’t see it, especially what happening around world. Stay strong n remember we always here all for each other
@@johnsukkar6462 I'm so sorry about your loss. I can't even start thinking of the pain it must have brought for you. Stay strong my friend.
Anyone else get chills when Johnny says ghost riders in the sky the first time
I get it the last time
I'd get chills if he were reading the phone book.
I do. Phenomenal song
Dankeschön für diesen einzigartigen Song! Leider habe ich Dich erst jetzt gefunden, aber nun gehören Du und deine Songs zu meinem Leben! Dankeschön dafür!!!
Peace, Love and the truest spirit of Country Rock ☮️
Two country music giants singing together a legendary song !!! Fabulous performance !!! Love them both !!!🥰🎵🌟👑🌟👑🌟
Which one. ? Johnny ? Waylon? Kris? Willie? All were legendary. 🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪🔥🔥
with Reggie Young giving the guitar solo!
☺
2?
Not to mention some the best "back-up" / "studio" musicians in the business at that time.
but thats only half of the front men???? cmon
There will never be the likes of these fellows again. Love them.
How right you are, This planet will neve see the likes of them again.
I have no words to describe what this song means to me !!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello 👋 I totally agree with you 💯 You're a real fan
Hello maria, how are you?
I grew up in the 80s and 90s and heard a few songs of Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, enough to realize they were legends but it wasn’t until recently that I am watching these videos that I truly understand why they are so beloved. All of these songs are fantastic, the lyrics, the instruments, everything.
I'm from the same era. Country was bumfuck Appalachia. It was all Metal in my day.
Johnny Cash cover of Nine inch nails "hurt" is truly amazing. I am not prone to tears normally.
I am so jealous of all those who managed to see these artists live. The joy they bring through a video is unreal live must take you to a different plane. RIP JC.
Entièrement d'accord
you can still see Willie now performing at age 90.
I had the great privilege to see them in Charlotte doing the Road Goes on Forever tour ... Circa June, 1995 ... Most memorable concert I've seen by a mile...
You are so lucky
Talented outlaws right there. Back when country music had real men and women behind it. It was an amazing time to grow up in.
Once upon a time when there was real music, I really miss good old times.
If this is not a legend, i dont know what is....
This is simply brilliant sheer talent
Legendary!! Thank you so much for posting this! God bless you.
There's a reason this crowd was quiet throught this song. What a moment 👏🏼 🙌🏽
Respect shall be given where it's due
Reggie Young deserves a MASSIVE accolade & recognition, He was the back track to the Outlaws. A man that stood in the shadows but shone through the music.
1:12 at least cash recognize him and gave him spotlight
Is he the one doing the "noodling" single-string backing? It added a lot. I thought maybe it was Kris Kristofferson, but he was looking for coffee the last time I heard that line.
Anyone know?
Kudos to the pedal-steel player, too.
R.I.P Johhny cash ..The best..
@@KutWrite i believe he is, this song wouldn't be half of what it is without him in the back
@@KutWrite yes thats him b

@@bibistaufi2653 na klar, The Highwayman
The writing of this song is beautiful, the picture I can create with my mind is endless every time I hear this masterpiece, I can just picture being on a steed iron on my hip, open field and beautiful winds flowing thru my hair, such a cool and awesome song rest in peace to this kinda music.
An old cowboy went riding out
One dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested
As he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd
Of red eyed cows he saw
Plowin' through the ragged skies
And up the cloudy draw
Their brands were still on fire
And their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny
And their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him
As they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders coming hard
And he heard their mournful cry
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
Ghost riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt
Their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
He's riding hard to catch that herd
But he ain't caught 'em yet
'Cause they've got to ride forever
On that range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire
As they ride on, hear their cry
As the riders loped on by him
He heard one call his name
'If you wanna save your soul
From hell a-riding on our range
Then, cowboy, change your ways today
Or with us you will ride
Trying to catch the devil's herd
Across these endless skies
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
one of the very best cowboy songs ever written.
Thanks to post the lyrics. I'm Brazilian and I'd like to follow word by word. ❤
Seeing Willie and Johnny sing together that classic,was not just a sound for sour ears...it was an epiphany.RIP Johnny,you were the REAL american outlaw!
何度聞いても とても心地のいい曲。
This song gave me chills the first time I heard it and if done right, still does. They did it right.

I can say that in 2021 'Country & Western' music has died, it will never be the same .. none of the new country singers can sing like this
Agree. My disillusionment with “modern” country music started around 20 years ago. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had the same experience with rock music. Most music today has been melted down and poured into the same boring mold, very much with an unenlightened formula. That’s just my opinion. I am old, yes, but I got to see many of the great bands.
country music was replaced with stadium country, bunch of synthetic overproduced crap about trucks
110% agreed
Erm What about Marty Stuart!!!
@@davidross1576 RickBeato has put up a video about why boomers (and GenXers like me) can not relate to millenials' music. His theory is that after the mid90ies digital sound processing eliminated improvisation and the human element as well as the occasional void spaces in rhythm and track spaces. I like this theory very much it keeps me from admitting that I'm getting old ;) That said there is plenty of human made music out there, just not in western music industry any more.
Willie Nelson's voice is the lightning of life.
Yeahhh
Cash, Willie, Reggie Young and the band produce maybe the best live rendition of the best cowboy song. Mega!
What song ! What singers !
This just killed me. Tears flowing down my face. My late dad died five years ago and while I was listening a thought struck me: "My dad would have loved this. I would have loved to just send it to him."
I can't and will never be able to. Damn, he absolutely passed way too early.
Sven Döring damn man. I hope you’re doing good. Stay strong.
I absolutely understand mate. I lost my mum in 2011 and I still think about her many times every day, I still talk to her all the time. The loss of a parent is something you never really get over. I hope you find the strength to keep going, your dad would have wanted you to. 🙏🏻
Play it for him. Pour his favourite drink too. He will hear you
Straight Goosebumps hearing Johnny Cash's voice!!!!! Never fails!!!!!
me too!

@@fransvoogt5145 einfach fantastisch. Insbesondere auch Reggae Young 👍
I am a lifelong metal fan and this song is one of most metal things I've ever heard. \m/
the last of the real outlaws bless all of them
Nelson's voice is one of a kind. No other human being has a voice like his.
Yea that’s why it’s his voice… Johnny’s is better in my opinion
Sounds like a little of auto tune for Willie no ?
Sounds strange...
@GAGE MATULA some bands use auto tune not during live but it's added for the live DVD version in studio
That was just a question
nelson aint got shit on johnny kasjdkljas
Ted Grunzt, from Wallace, North Dakota sounds exactly like Willie Nelson. Google him.
So amazing. It’s been more than 30 years ago that this great performance was presented. Still vibrant and vital as if it’s played just now
These guys are making the most of their twilight years... and we should all do the same!
Makes real Men who have done wrong look over their shoulders and understand that the Lord is the only one who can forgive those who cannot forgive themselves.
Regie young's guitar play in this is absolutely brilliant
Absolut.... Reggie Young (RIP)
Gone too soon😔
I vote for American Outlaws as one of the best concerts ever performed in the whole world music history...
Makes me feel like a kid agian I mis the good old days
This stage is beyond legendary 😎
I enjoy a lot and do not get bored as I re-listen the song over and over again. I am from Saudi Arabia

Thanks, UA-cam algorithms, for bringing me this gem.
Highwaymen are a national treasure. There will never be another outlaw country band like them again. Also, the Corries did a comedy song to this tune that's pretty hilarious if you're at all familiar with Scottish culture.
What I would’ve given to be at this concert of legends
When i was a young lass in the 60’s, this song scared me to death; as an old woman i now love it! Ain’t nothin’ but loving the man in black….
