    I buried my Dad today.
    Tonight I play this, for a long time Willie Nelson fan.
    He would sing Always on my mind for his Dad's memory.
    Thank You Willie, for a heartfelt song I can remember my Daddy too. xx

    My husband passed away July of 2019 I was having a really hard time. He was only 57 I was sitting on the porch listening to some music my husband love country music. So of course I was listening to a lot of his songs that he used to listen to. And underneath one of the songs I was listening to popped up Just Breathe. I listen to this song and it really made me realize that you just don't tell people how much you love them or you don't realize how much you love them until they're gone. So I sit on the porch and I listen to this song all the time. And most of the time I'll start crying . I love Willie Nelson. Keep up the good work Willie

      I am sorry. I reckon he wouldn't want you sitting on the porch crying for too long now.
      People know we love them, does everyone need to hear it? I am not for certain. It's nice to hear.
      People do the best with what they know, and that's all any of us can do.
      He knows you love him. He's with you in spirit. Right by your side.
      Take the time you need to find peace with your lose. As best you can.
      He knows.

    I found my love dead from a heart attack on May 1st. This song has been on repeat since... I cant thank you enough. He loved Willie, one of my many fondest memories with him was listening to Willie Nelson, smoking one up, and just enjoying eachothers company and forgetting the world together. He was a beautiful soul. And this song reminds me of going home to him after a hard day and him making me dinner and saying come sit on the couch with me, forget everything, and just breathe. Thank you.

      I often think of how painful all love inevitably ends up. And only a handful of people get that deep mutually connected timeless love and apreciation for each other till there twilight years. I can't imagine haveing that. And losing that person when your in the later years in life.. That would be horrible, and that's the best case scenario.. That's what we all search for in the quest for love. And we think we've had our hearts torn in half over betrayal, or neglect, or not having our love returned by the ones we loved. But all that painful heart ach really pales in comparison to getting and sharing a deep mutual love, then losing it.. I can't imagine it.. And I've loved and lost, and thought I was so broken but I now think about how that was still getting off so much easier then getting what we all hope for and losing it..

    My grandfather Bill Holford worked with Willie Nelson at the start of his recording career. He was a recording engineer who had started his own studio (ACA) in Houston in 1949. Willie made his very first recordings there in 1954 as a guitarist for Dave Isbell. Willie also assembled and led Isbell’s backing band for that session. Later, in 1960, Willie needed someone to make masters of his songs Nite Life and Rainy Day Blues, because Pappy Daily (owner of Willie’s label D Records) had rejected these songs, which Willie had recorded at Gold Star. Pappy didn’t think those songs were real country music! Willie took the recordings to Grandpa, and he made the masters for him. I’m so proud of my grandfather for a million reasons, but nothing makes me more proud than his involvement with Willie Nelson’s beginnings! Willie is the greatest! 💕

It wasn't perfect and I wasn't perfect, but I loved her and I continue to love her. I think she tried to tell me how much she loved me when she told me to watch to watch this video and listen to this song. I played this for her when she lay dying. I hope she knew how much I did love her. Guilt is an overwhelming thing and it's hard to see past it. You always feel like like you could have done more or could have done things differently.

One day my mom found my dad just staring out the window of their living room. She asked if he was alright. He responded, with a smile on his face, by explaining how grateful he is was for having a head full of these amazing memories. He fell into coma a few hours later and passed.

      That us so very cool. That Eddie Vedder did feel so honored . I heard Willie Nelson's version first, then was curious about who wrote it ( music & lyrics) and then only discovered it was written by Eddie Vedder. I love both versions and I'll go back & forth between the two. So much feeling there, & I can't imagine Eddie not being pleased and honored by Willie's beautiful, almost haunting take on his composition. I think of my Mom mostly, when I listen to it. She's gone a year and a half now. Some of those lyrics overtake me. "Nothing you would take, and everything you gave." Yes Mom. I'll "meet you on the other side" some day..

He was so much more than a single father, mentor, guide, protector, provider, Grandpa... He was my best friend. The pain is raw... Its still so raw. The only thing that seems to help is music.

    OK...haven't left a comment in awhile but I feel compelled to here...first of all when your making reference to folks like Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson your talking about LEGENDS.....These ARE the men everybody else cut their teeth on and they actually lived the lives they wrote and sang about and they were both around loooong before N.I.N. and Pearl Jam came along...but just as iron sharpens iron these icons have the talent to recognize the work of other artists in other genres as well....you speak of pay'in respect to the writers...when Trent Rezner learned that a country artist had obtained permission to cover "Hurt" he got upset...when Johnny found out he refused to record it until he talked to Trent and got his blessing...THAT'S PAYING RESPECT! LIVE in the music ya'll...and don't limit your horizons...and always recognize those who's back it was built on....one love ya'll!

    • @TheMarkcu24
      @TheMarkcu24 9 років тому +7

      Big Mike You are uniformed my man. Trent didn't dislike it because a country musician was covering it, he hated it because anyone was covering it. He said "hearing it was like someone kissing your girlfriend. It felt invasive." This was AFTER the recoding was already made. It was because it was his most personal song. As far as this one goes, to say that Mr. Vedder hasn't lived it and isn't an icon in his own right is just way off base. The guys has been doing it for almost 30 year now, for the love of god, please show some respect as we all show Johnny and Willie theirs as well. Peace.

    Love this song and its a treasure to find after being a Willie Nelson fan for so long. 3:35 "Love you til I die, meet you on the other side" so felt. I've seen Willie Nelso I've seen Willie live 3 times. I remember seeing with my Mom at the Colorado State Fair in Pueblo in the 90's for the first time. I bought a red Willie Neslon bandana at some point that I would carrie my harmonicas around on my travels and camping. I would unwrap my harmonica and play "Red River Valley" "Will the Circle Be Unbroken", "Amazing Grace", "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" or a Blues Rift...or just make something up. THANK YOU Willie for being one of the most important musical influences in my life! As with most things words don't do justice to all the memories and feelings felt while with music.

    I feel cheated because I was only 12 years old when he passed. Oh what I would give to have more day riding in the woods listening to Willie, Waylon and Skynyrd in his old Toyota- that I now drive- looking for a creek to fish in on a warm day in Georgia.
    I've wrote so many songs about him and my mom. But none of them are ever satisfactory for me I hope I make them proud.
    But it's okay- I'll just breathe and keep on living for the moment in this short life we live.

It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our heart..

    Heard this and cried. My precious dad absolutely loved listening to Willie Nelson. The lyrics- phrasing - his beautiful nature were all a part of the appeal for Dad. Thanks for the music Willie x you are adored.

    i remember my Aunt saying he would always stop in Franklin TX on his way home, say hey and eat at the diner and gas up. I can just see that happening. Lovely soul.

      Helen N Except this song isn’t an Original.😂😂😂 Your pal Willie borrowed this hit from Grunge Band Powerhouse Pearl Jam. The Original writer and performers of the song you enjoy as an original. 😂

      @@thaymadethis1646 , I saw him once on stage in Hobart Tasmania. It was on his last world tour. I never knew what a brilliant soloist he is on the guitar. I was totally smitten by his humbleness, guitar work and voice.
      Sadly some morons left the concert because he sang not enough of the old songs for them. I was ashamed for them.
      I love Willie for all he stands for and always will. I wished I could have shaken his hand and thanked him personally for all the happinesd he has given me all through my adult live and he still does.
