just when i"m about to give up on country along comes a guy like chris stapleton to renew my faith. he even has a steel guitar in the band. i have died and gone to heaven.
He also has the greats gravitate to him, like Mickey Raphael and Benmont Tench. In fact Mickey is in this video playing the harmonica. Benmont Tench was Tom Petty's keyboardist in the Heartbreakers.
I have watched this video at least 50 times and never get tired of playing it. Chris rocks this Waylon tune. Chris is the new country I have been waiting for, for a long time. Job well done.
Chris and Morgane are magic together. I'm so glad she encouraged Chris to share their talents with the world. Chris has an amazing voice with ability to make us feel the music.
This man has many God given talents, song writing, guitar skills, but undoubtedly his vocal skills are unmatched. Doesn't matter what he sings , he owns it, and once he has sung it, no other version measures up. Have seen him twice in concert, hope to do so this summer as well. So glad I discovered his music in 2017. Nothing's been the same in my music world since
While I agree he's great. Waylon actually lived every word in the song. There's something about someone singing the truth that's unbeatable. This is a great cover, but nobody does Waylon quite like Waylon.
@@WeekndWarriorrr Actually, it was Rodney Crowell that "lived every word in the song". He wrote it based on his experience. You can find his story and him singing the song here: ua-cam.com/video/p3C09xEwX-Q/v-deo.html
This man has over 1000 songs under his belt, But just a few for him self. It's about time that he And his wife are starting to get the credit they have worked for.
His wife, Morgane, was a regular performer at our venue, The Flying Machine, when she first started her career many years ago. She was awesome back then.
He writes a bunch of hits for others and collects the checks then records them for himself better than any of the others did and collects the checks once again. Genius move.
He's kept alive alot of songs done in the1970's, by Waylon, Willie, Jerry Jeff Walker and Gary P. Nunn, among others, like this one. He does them justice good to hear
I'm so glad this man came along just when I was starting to lose faith in country music when we lost the late great Waylon Jennings . My faith has been resurrected . Unbelievable talent . Much Respect ... Thank you for sharing ...
Playing bass guitar, Don Was .. famous record producer and part time bass player. Don Edward Fagenson, known professionally as Don Was, is an American musician, record producer and record executive. Primarily a bass player, Was co-founded the funk-rock band Was. In later years he produced songs and albums for many popular recording artists. Who has Don Was produced ??? Over the next two decades, Don worked with everyone from Jackson Browne and Bob Dylan to Willie Nelson and the Rolling Stones. The list of artists Don is credited producing includes: Bob Seger, Glenn Frey, Iggy Pop, Khaled, The B-52's, Barenaked Ladies and several albums for Bonnie Raitt. ~~ 🎶🎸🎹
Most of the artists recording today do not write songs! Martina Mcbride, for instance, has written part of 1 song on her many albums. Faith Hill has written none. Tim Mcgraw has written 4 songs!
Saw this live the other night in Knoxville Tn. ( 10/26/18). Marty Stuart was up there with him pickin the fire outta his telecaster too. Let me tell you, they did it right !!!
What are people talking about? Its is rocking! The vocals of Chris and Morgane are made for it and the band is laying down the best licks - steel guitar, drums, guitars, piano, harmonica. All together it is a treat and you cannot keep your feet from moving. Quit analyzing and/or comparing this cut. Just listen to it and move.
There is nothing like the feeling you get aka at the 3:11 again at 4:46 min. mark when Chris yells YEAH...Because you know...your band is on fire & burning down the house!
I love watching the steel guitarist face! He is great to watch and especially to listen to! But then anyone associated with Chris or Morgan’s are great, or they wouldn’t be there. Talk about class, perfectionist and performing and giving the very best you have to give at each performance. That is what you get every time you go and listen to them. They wouldn’t be themselves to give any less.
Yup! Nothin' but respect for Mr. Stapleton! That dude has all the DNA of a superstar and he's put in the work to get there. I'm not a huge country music fan but I think I've liked everything I've heard him do.
Thank u for keeping the outlaw music alive an your beautiful music is awesome you give me hope that the real music is back again thank you for sharing your awesome band and I'm still listening to your music 🎶 in Northern Canada 🍁 country in 2024
Such a humble cat, him and Luke Colmbs, exactly how I want my country stars to be, amazed to be there and thankful to the people that bought their stuff!! And props to Chris for dancin with the one that brought him!! His wife is an amazing singer and they go everywhere together!! Respect!!
Oh my gosh...best vocal ...instramental EVER. Those musicians were having the time of their life, amazing to watch amazing to listen too. Perfection. Last time I watched anything like this was when Prince was on stage. Although I like the joy and admiration in these folks, it was a party of pure country music going on.
Can you even imagine how much Waylon would've LOVED Chris and how much Morgan would've told Chris, "If you take off with that Waylon Dude, YOU ain't livin long like this, hey now Baby.." LOL
The new Johnny Cash And June Carter Cash of country. A true country icon idol and legend is born people. On a live rise to the top. This is country. This is feeling.... This is music. I have been waiting for this so long to get this feeling back. That good country music in memory of the great Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, George Strait... And many others.
Obviously he won't be Johnny Cash--but Chris Stapleton SITS in the same circle as Waylon, Johnny, Willie, Hank, and Merle--undoubtedly. He is as good as they were and are.
Waylon is the best there is. Undoubtedly. But there's no denying Chris Stapleton has that honesty and down-to-earth quality about him that, coupled with an immediately recognizable and incredible voice, brings an ethos to country music that puts him squarely with the older Greats of Country. There's no way you can place him in the same category as "musicians" such as Garth Brooks, Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, etc...
Like Stapleton says ain’t living long like this, I get it. You know our situations. You’ve been trying I’ve been denying. Always happy to hear from you. Luv the wave and drive by. Friends!
"I Ain't Living Long Like This" is a song written by Rodney Crowell for his 1978 album Ain't Living Long Like This. "I Ain't Living Long Like This" was first recorded in 1978 by Emmylou Harris as a track for her album, Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town. - I wondered because I had that song by EmmyLou back in the 70's.
Gary Stewart first recorded it for his "Your Place Or Mine" album, released in 1977. Rodney Crowell and Emmylou Harris recorded it for their albums in 1978. Waylon Jennings' cover version is the only one released as a single, and it went to number 1 early in 1980. IMHO all the versions are good. It's a shame, though, that so many people know it only as a Waylon song, when he was, in fact, the fourth to record it, not the first.
I just found this video, and so glad i did...... WOW! such a great job, Waylon would have been proud of Chris Stapleton for doing such a wonderful job on it too, and thanks to all the Great musicians for their help to bring it all together , Thank You
AWESOME TALENT and he makes you feel his lyrics, knowing they are coming from the soul and he's rock'n it to a whole new level!!PLAY ON BROTHER AND SHOW EM HOW'S IT DONE
Omgosh. Can’t believe I’ve never heard this. Only tune I’ll ever need. Tween the steel, rhythm, and had to do a little digging, but Buddy Miller has a new fan. I’m a rocker, but he plays the sweetest riff I’ve ever heard, bar none. That is awesome. All of’em. Cookin’
That steel player is a badass
Pretty sure that’s Robbie Turner.😊
Whole band is killer.
just when i"m about to give up on country along comes a guy like chris stapleton to renew my faith. he even has a steel guitar in the band. i have died and gone to heaven.
Me too.
Steele guitar rocks me
and thats not just any old steel guitar player , the legend that is robbie turner
Howdayyyyy!!!!
He also has the greats gravitate to him, like Mickey Raphael and Benmont Tench. In fact Mickey is in this video playing the harmonica. Benmont Tench was Tom Petty's keyboardist in the Heartbreakers.

Try Rodney Crowell's version with Emmylou Harris. He wrote the song.
@@rodking6819 try Wayon's his is best....
Not even CLOSE!
I'm a Waylon-for-ever fan, but DANG. These two are just the best
Waylon 4ever Will be the King,but Chris does him justice. I can just hear Waylon saying-"Excellent Job Hoss"
Chris and Morgane are magic together. I'm so glad she encouraged Chris to share their talents with the world. Chris has an amazing voice with ability to make us feel the music.
Sorry.he was the man before her and now she's trying on her own .I think no way like Sugarlands Jennifer.Just my opinion.
Chris Stapleton has saved country music. His amazing wife too..
They make history by singing some older history like Waylon Jennings !!
JAMEY JOHNSON is the KANG... Tyler Childers is awesome
Chris BUTCHERED Tennesse Whiskey...
My Lord.....Chris Stapleton singing with Morgane dancing and Everyone else playing their solos Awesomeness
💃 ⭐️🤠💫🎸❤️🎤🎧
Nothing to add !

@@LOGDOG5375 yessir
Yes he is 😇❤️
There isn’t many that can do Waylon justice. This gent is one of them. Morgan fantastic too! Real country
wendel atkins check him out
He's the greatest.but can't be waylon.no one will ever be waylon. We miss you waylon $
Guy on slide guitar is fucking sick,like really wow.
Robbie Turner
LOVE this rendition ... even Waylon is smiling ... and I love the way each musician gets his moments; especially the Steel Gitarist
Right? They're all having so much FUN!! Me too!!
Chris Stapleton just rocked the hell out of that Waylon tune, and loved every second of it.
Best you go hear the original from Rodney Crowell ..
Right?? Every single person in that band was havin nothin but FUN! Hey now Baby.
Morgane's energy during this performance is EVERYTHING. this her jam and you can tell. Yaaassssss sis
They sure blew the roof off with this performance! Soo much talent on that stage and they were all having an absolute blast! 🕺🔥❤
The coolest thing about this video is that Stapleton's playing a Jazzmaster amongst some country heavy hitters. Buddy Miller on the Dano. Yes.
This man has over 1000 songs under his belt, But just a few for him self. It's about time that he And his wife are starting to get the credit they have worked for.
His wife, Morgane, was a regular performer at our venue, The Flying Machine, when she first started her career many years ago. She was awesome back then.
Hokey Sloan shes still pretty awesome .
ABSOLUTELY!
Michael Young thou the of hits he’s written, he must be one of the richest guys in Nashville - he seems to have written everything...amazing
He writes a bunch of hits for others and collects the checks then records them for himself better than any of the others did and collects the checks once again. Genius move.
Gotta love the passion chris has for this song. Rip Waylon.
Song quality is terrible would love to this on a different level
He doesn't hold a candle to Waylon
@@ericmerritt6735 waylon is my favorite so I have no comment for that lol
@@ericmerritt6735 vocally he doesn’t hold a candle? Songwriting? He’s nails both. So it’s subjective to use that candle analogy.
Song written by Rodney Crowell
One talent overlooked,he seems to be a good husband and father,all around good people
Y'all better thank Rodney Crowell for writing this song.
you can see the whole band and are into this, its so alive, and Chris is the icing on the cake, with all the textures in his vocal chords of steel.
They made this a whole new song just saying. The vibe off of the whole band is everything.
He's kept alive alot of songs done in the1970's, by Waylon, Willie, Jerry Jeff Walker and Gary P. Nunn, among others, like this one. He does them justice good to hear

Grew Up in Houston off of wayside drive.... Good oh Waylon..... Texan Boy
Rodney Crowell lived off Wayside Drive, he wrote the song. Waylon's done it, Emmylou has done it, Vince Gill has done it, even Foghat has done it.
Just to clear something up. This song was written by the great Rodney Crowell. Waylon would eventually cover it..
Most of the artists recording today do not write songs! Martina Mcbride, for instance, has written part of 1 song on her many albums. Faith Hill has written none. Tim Mcgraw has written 4 songs!
@@flintferguson6979 Jason Aldean has written none.
Gary Stewart too.give it a listen
You are technically correct but Waylon made it come alive....
@@davelybarger5399 Crowell’s is my favorite version of this song. The guitar work here is superior.
Waylon is very proud and smiling from heaven
❤
What a band…you got a lot of greats up on that stage. Some of the best at their instruments ever.
Am I the only one who likes these two.
everything this man sings
is good..
🤓👍
😂 you’re definitely not the only one
Fabulous, fantastic, great, talented, could never run out of adjectives to describe this man's talent!!!!!
Robbie Turner on the psg and the guitar solos are awesome. Long live Waylon Jennings and his songs. Well done Chris Stapelton
Saw this live the other night in Knoxville Tn. ( 10/26/18). Marty Stuart was up there with him pickin the fire outta his telecaster too. Let me tell you, they did it right !!!
I would love to have seen that . Marty plays the shit out of a tele .
Theres a lot of talent on this stage...WOW!!!
LOL Chris can hardly contain himself being surrounded with all these musicians hitting the spot with their solos.
😊
I know I'm two years late but I was just thinking the same thing. Ripping solos. Great band.
Amazing. Super talent surrounding you. You can’t sit still listening to this. Such unison. One if the tightest performances I’ve seen. Bravo….
What are people talking about? Its is rocking! The vocals of Chris and Morgane are made for it and the band is laying down the best licks - steel guitar, drums, guitars, piano, harmonica. All together it is a treat and you cannot keep your feet from moving. Quit analyzing and/or comparing this cut. Just listen to it and move.
Two years and more Stapleton's added to their Family (Damn call u Bunnies!) Best friggin version of RC s Song
The incomparable Buddy Miller on guitar!
I’m 40. By the time I’m gone, CS will be in the pantheon of the greats. May already be.🤷♂️
There is nothing like the feeling you get aka at the 3:11 again at 4:46 min. mark when Chris yells YEAH...Because you know...your band is on fire & burning down the house!

Thats Robbie Turner, he played in Waylons last band.
More proof that UA-cam is the greatest invention of all time
Never gets old!! What a tribute!! Waylon is a happy man above!!
Yup! Nothin' but respect for Mr. Stapleton! That dude has all the DNA of a superstar and he's put in the work to get there. I'm not a huge country music fan but I think I've liked everything I've heard him do.
Absolutely great! Killer performance from both Stapleton and wife AND the band! That brunette back-up singer was the cherry on top :-)
The blond back up singer is a knock out. HOT
I love Stapleton. He’s like a southern version of Zakk Wylde. And what a great band!
That's exactly it right on man's got talent .
Always looked for the perfect words to describe Chris to my metal head friends. Thank you
Lucky he has an AWESOME band behind him ! He is still a good singer , but he is still a strummer , Great video .
Country music's newest Outlaw. Give 'em hell Chris, keep bringing it to us!!!
I don't know who the guy is playing the steel guitar but I've been playing music 30 years and he's the best I've ever heard on the steel
John Baisden What about Waylon’s guy Moonie?
He’s good but not Moonie!!
My favorite Waylon song covered by the master. This is wonderful. The whole band is having a blast.
Micky Raphael always bringing his spirit with his Harp.
Thank u for keeping the outlaw music alive an your beautiful music is awesome you give me hope that the real music is back again thank you for sharing your awesome band and I'm still listening to your music 🎶 in Northern Canada 🍁 country in 2024
My dude at 1:27 kills it. Such a fun performance
Robbie Turner on pedal steel
Hats off !! to All the people That make Chris sound beautiful... it take a village!!!
Waylon would be proud son, top class!
Can't be performed ANY BETTER!
Every single person in this video is having the time of their lives! Pure Joy! Pure FUN!!
This guy might just save country music!!! It’s hard to cover the hoss but Chris nailed it
Wow, this one kills me. I saw Waylon in the mid 80's, I'm sure he would approve. That steel player I remember well too.
Blows my mind how good this couple is. Nobody can top them
This is awesome! One of my favorite Waylon songs written by Rodney Crowell and covered by Chris Stapleton!
This is a really GREAT version of this tune--love it!
I believe the song was actually written by Rodney Crowell.
Sumbitch, this was refreshingly damn good.
Whole band vibing tf out 😎👍
Thank you God for this man. Amen 🙏
Woohoo! Love this song!!! Steel guitar...awesome!!!
He needs to put this song on one of his albums!
YESSSSS. i found this video by accident, and wondered why it wasn't on any of the Chris Stapleton CD's i own.
Sharon Mitchell This not his song. The original is by Waylon Jennings
And he does Waylon proud.
Evan Hester negative. Rodney Crowell is the original.
CHRIS STAPLETON does everyone proud! Just saying........
That's the amazing Buddies Miller on guitar. He played for Emmylou and also Patty Griffin. One of the greats.
Oh yes, Buddy Miller. Great solo on his Danelectro baritone guitar. Man, I love that guy!
Such a humble cat, him and Luke Colmbs, exactly how I want my country stars to be, amazed to be there and thankful to the people that bought their stuff!! And props to Chris for dancin with the one that brought him!! His wife is an amazing singer and they go everywhere together!! Respect!!
