One of the most unappreciated country artist! Gene Watson Is one of the greatest country artist ever. Farewell Party is one of my favorites, his music never gets old!
He is true country. Thank God radio still plays his music. This is my all time favorite Gene song. I have loved hi. Since 1975. I was 17 when I started listening to country music. I thank Jack Greene and statue of a fool for that. I am 73 and miss hearing all those great classics
Love Gene Watson - he has never been given the credit he deserves. He deserves more than some to be in the Country Music Hall of Fame. He deserves a lot of recognition.
I will put Gene Watson’s Country crooning up against anyone who has ever sang country. Gene should be in the country music hall of fame. He has never gotten the credit he deserves.
Yes its sad that they can not or will not recognize him in the hall of fame he's a true singer much better then this new crap that's out today it is not country its garbage
If there are any young "vocalists in training in Country Music" - this is an artist to follow, and learn from. Gene's easy approach to so very, very many gently-beautiful songs is unequaled by any other Country singer I've every heard. Play his videos again and again and again - listen to his phrasing, timing, perfect pitch, and all of those other qualities that make an unequaled Country singers....Conne in Wichita...
You have that right, MsDerbygirl. None of the current crop of so-call Country singers could hold a candle to this man's talents. And I agree with you--this is one of his best songs. My personal fav is "Love in the Hot Afternoon."
Sure am gonna miss ur singing just loved ur voice.i enjoyed singing along with you ,well trying too ne way ....R.I L O L. With your Angels in heaven, lucky them.
If you want to know what a true musician is, watch Steve Palousek's face when he plays his solo in the middle. Watch his face and listen to his hands. Every emotion on his face is coming out in and through his hands. Amazing. Gives me chills.
This was my da favorite song an he made it clear this song was to be played at his funeral. My dad pasted away January 30th 2014 an I played this song for him an he took his last breathe.
Gene, in 2000, had colon Cander. And he fought it and won that awesome battle. He also was a heavy drinker and smoker years ago, and he left all that behind. He's a wonderful guy as well as a singer...
Oh This Has Just Got To Be The Very Best Version Of This Song By Gene. I Just Cant Stop Listening To It,and Watching Gene Sing It. This Is What Makes Life Wonderfull.Luv You Gene. Also Thanks For Posting This One ! Pat
II went to one of his concerts & it was so good He came off the stage and signed my guitar with all the band his concert was one of the best ive ever seen Very friendly group of guys .. thanks Gene & band for the show and a chance to chat with you all take and hope to see ya again soon....:)
i remeber you sing this song to me a the t brid in danville va for my 18th birthday i still love you and your songs i wish i could see you one more time carolyn
wish he were singing it to me :-) love this version...I have it on VHS from Austin City Limits..one of the best performances ever & nice job on the pedal steel too..kat
This is soooooo good - just can't seem to get enough of listening to this song. Watching this video just now, I finally figured out who the younger version of Gene Watson reminds me of and I really hate putting it down on paper because I'll probably get a lot of flack from it but here goes - he reminds me of a younger Dog The Bounty Hunter. Watch the video again and see if you can see a little bit of Dog in Gene. Thanks so much for the posting of this video - just great! - Gini
I wouldl like to tell you how much your song "Farewell Party" has meant to my family. My uncle, Jack Humphrey was murdered by his wife in 1977 and it took 29 years to put her behind bars. Your song was a way to express how we felt and it really seems that you could have taken the words right out of his mouth. Thank you and God Bless you!
Great Country Music Gene Watson Fair Well Party One of Best Singers in Music needs to be in Hall of Fame Awesome County Song 🎶 ❤
WHY ISN'T THIS MAN IN THE COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME? ONE OF THE BEST VOICES IN COUNTRY MUSIC, IF NOT THE BEST!!
Top 20 voice for sure.
Prolly cause he wouldn't kiss their asses.
One of the most unappreciated country artist! Gene Watson Is one of the greatest country artist ever. Farewell Party is one of my favorites, his music never gets old!
I agree you can't find a better singer it's been around for a long time and still sounds great
FOR ONLY YOU, JOHNNY CHANEY. I LOVE YOU TILL THE END OF TIME

This is what country music is all about. One of the great sad emotional songs ever sung by one of the great legends.
you are so right i miss my country oldies best ever
He is true country. Thank God radio still plays his music. This is my all time favorite Gene song. I have loved hi. Since 1975. I was 17 when I started listening to country music. I thank Jack Greene and statue of a fool for that. I am 73 and miss hearing all those great classics
One of the most under-rated country singers.

Dern Shame!!!!
I solely agree with you
Love Gene Watson - he has never been given the credit he deserves. He deserves more than some to be in the Country Music Hall of Fame. He deserves a lot of recognition.
I will put Gene Watson’s Country crooning up against anyone who has ever sang country. Gene should be in the country music hall of fame. He has never gotten the credit he deserves.
I agree. Saw this concert on PBS for free and it was great! I think it was Austin City Limits.
Yes its sad that they can not or will not recognize him in the hall of fame he's a true singer much better then this new crap that's out today it is not country its garbage
agree
I agree he needs to be in the Hall of Fame
My father requested this played at his funeral. Every time I hear it I think of him. I know he loved his music. And he passed away in 1987.
Gene Watson is a great singer and deserves to be in The Country Music Hall of Fame. Give him this honor while he is alive so that he can enjoy it.
My brother Charles passed away Feb 1, 1919, He loved country music and this was his favorite song.
Since 1975 I have been a Gene fan and still today. Love his voice and all his music. He could sing the telephone book. He is country music
Sung with such emotion. Gene will always be one of the greatest

This is an amazing version of probably the best song ever recorded, love it, 5*
so good looking and what a singer no one can come close to him
Voices from heaven. Late praises from Hong Kong.
This is a real "soul" player and gives the song a chilling melody as he pours his heart into it.
You have that right, MsDerbygirl. None of the current crop of so-call Country singers could hold a candle to this man's talents. And I agree with you--this is one of his best songs. My personal fav is "Love in the Hot Afternoon."
I really like this song and also sing by some great performer like you gene Watsons and Allan jackson.thank you.
What a song sung by a very remarkable singer! No body sings like him!
Sure am gonna miss ur singing just loved ur voice.i enjoyed singing along with you ,well trying too ne way ....R.I L O L. With your Angels in heaven, lucky them.
Love the steel player!! Those guys are awesome!!
A very young Steve Palousek on steel, and Tony Booth on bass.
Beautiful!
It just doesn't get any better!
Awesome band, too!!
Gene can "bend" a song like nobody can!
