The audiobook for 11/22/63 brought me here. Wasson has a great voice.
My dad was a marine in 1965 interduced this move to me at 5 year's old...still holds up to this day...I love this song and movie
When I saw The Boys in Company C in 1979, I got a tape recorder and recorded this during the movie. I actually still have the cassette.
Really miss Craig on the big screen. Such a fine actor who brings honesty and vulnerability to his characters.
couldn't agree more. always wanted more movies like Ghosy Story and Body Double. he's awesome in both!!!
@@Freakaboogie the mens club 1986 his in there with harvey keitel and roy
Watching him now in the movie strapped...classic actor...legend in my household
I do, as well. Loved him in Body Double 1984 and Nightmare on Elm Street 3:Dream Warriors 1987.
This song moved me when I saw the movie 30 years ago, and it still does today after watching it at least 20 times over. This performance is a great tribute to the poor guys that were sent out and died in Vietnam. Damn shitty war the US should never have fought. There is no version of the song with the couplet of 'Betsy-Ann - tell me once again - you will be there when it's over' that I know of. It's only in the movie. Thank you Craig for this wonderful song.
Not fruitless losses Vietnam was the last country to fall to Communism. It showed our resolve for Democracy.
Love this song
Ever since i watched the film,
The Boys in Company C, when i was younger,
Way to go Mr A! Not only did you knock 11.22.63 out of the park, you're a talented musician!
Wow I didn't realize Craig Wasson sang and played the guitar! I always remembered him from "Ghost Story". Such a great actor I miss seeing him on screen.
Damn. I served from 1978 through 1982 in the Army Reserves. A large number of people I served with were Viet Nam Veterans. They had a recording of this song and played it a lot. Thanks for singing this song Craig. I know a lot of guys really got some form of comfort from it.
This is a great song from a little known, but powerful film. God bless all the men and women who fought (and died) in Vietnam.
I am so glad to see and hear this song.. I, my brother, cousins and kate father loved this song and “the boys in company c” was our favorite movie growing up in Nigeria in the early eighties.
God bless you for this song and making us have great memories
I always come back to this song, after all these years, memories, some good, most bad, anger, guilt, coming home, expecting more, still there everyday, one day there will be peace for us!
Craig is great musician, writer and actor
Great job Craig. I love your work!!
Holy shit! Great rendition of your tune. Aged like a fine wine brother. God Bless you good sir
I first saw Craig Wasson in the movie Rollercoaster released in 1977. I have been a fan of his acting ever since.
This music moves me, beautiful
Id love to see Body Double 2!!
Just saw Craig in Go Tell the Spartans. Would love to see him in some new military TV and film stuff. Garryowen!
ich mochte den Song sofort, als ich ihn als junger Kerl in dem Film hörte... Zeitlos schön... !!!!!
Well done Craig
I had no idea about Craig Wasson playing acoustic like that!!! That is very nice to know cause I´m really big fan since Boby Double. So kool!!!
Be sure to check out the entire interview we did with Craig Wasson about this song and his entire career - including of course talking about Body Double. barrenspace.com/112263/interviews/craig-wasson/
Thanks for the feedback Martin. I go further in this for sure!!!!!
....Being British I am grateful my country stayed out of Vietnam. I have seen that wall in Washington and in 1998 I went to Vietnam. I cannot imagine the hardships that those poor American boys went through, the constant terror, never knowing when danger could come, the heat and the hostility of their own people when returning home.I recall passing through the old DMZ and seeing cemetery after cemetery, all with Communist symbols over the gates, hundreds of young men, many little more than boys buried in each one, and I saw scours of such cemeteries. As I said I saw the wall in Washington, the names etched onto it, like the Vietnamese in the cemeteries I saw in Vietnam, the men behind the names on the wall were mostly young men, with all their lives ahead of them, back during the war these men and the ones buried in the old DMZ cemeteries were enemies, but no longer, now they are united, united in death and I hope in peace. . I remember a woman I met in Vietnam, I complimented her on her excellent English, she told me she had been married to a GI who promised to take her to America but he was killed in the Mekong Delta, so much misery and grief all around, civilians and soldiers from both sides, only time will heal the scars. Though my country stayed out of Vietnam and I know no one who fought in that war I give our American cousins my respect. My own father is dead now,(He died in 1998) he fought in Normandy in WW2, I remember he never talked about the war, most vets don't , they just want to forget, not wanting to be reminded of that terrible times in their lives. Yet I can still see my father with tears in his eyes when he watched on TV as the queen placed a wreath of poppies on the Cenotaph (Memorial) in London. 50 years on and the sight of the Queen laying the wreath still brought tears to his eyes, somethings a person never forgets, no matter how hard he tries. I believe all veterans are deserving of respect, whether they fought in WW2, Vietnam or the Gulf, for people like me who has never been to war we cannot even begin to imagine what the vets went through and with many of them are still going though, the dreams and nightmares that will torment them for the rest of their lives....
likesmilitaryhistory Alan Moore Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings. Sincerity has it's own language and what you said hit me straight in the heart. Your American cousin, Jonathan
yea our country stayed out of Vietnam yet interfered in Iraq and Afghanistan to name a few, which was basically a modern day Vietnam and who will and did come back with the same trauma.......War is futile.......
I live in troy ny where unc sam is buried. Mr wasson yr my fav unspoken voice

Boys in Company C
thank you super
It is Beautiful
powerful
Semper Fi especially for my dad who was in Vietnam Cu Chi 25th Infantry Division.
Do you still like to watch?
Is this his official UA-cam? I've been trying to track Craig Wasson down for years on social media, but seems he has none. He's such a talent and needs a come back if he's not trying to stay out of the spotlight anymore. We come from beautiful Oregon.
Anthony Cardiali (2nd Channel) he is an old friend of mine..I'm a producer..ill give him a msg..rolandreelpix@Gmail.com
Renee Roland Hey Renee, any news? Haha. I’m also from Oregon as well. He’s aged gracefully too. Let me know if he has any site or something. I’m friends with Belushi and would love to set up something music wise or something.
@@ACARDtvMusic I am his daughter. Contact me thru my website and I'll put you in touch. He loves Belushi. I'm at faithfulheartproductions.com
Does anyone know if he published the song before getting the Boys in Company C roll or if he wrote it for the movie after being cast?
But with the greatest hope possible
I love u brother Craig..call u soon
Im 36 seen thus movie in 92 this song is the saddest song ive ever heard.
The stage play was even sadder.....
please I went to the interview page I cant see the link for interview with craig
Oh wow, i just came across this the day after I learned of R Lee Ermy's passing. How can I get a music sheet for this? I've been looking for it since I saw the movie a year after it came out.
same here I have hunted for years and and still cant find it .
Doc James, I'll ask my Dad if he's open to sharing the chord chart. :)
@@kurdt6794 I'll ask my Dad if he's open to sharing the chord chart for you
@@sararosewasson5642 oh my god thank you that would be fantastic.
@@kurdt6794 Ok, so here's the scoop. He said he never wrote sheet music for it! Most of his songs just come through his head into the guitar and he memorizes them by playing them. Yesterday on the phone he said "I don't have sheet music for that song - I never wrote any. Just tell 'em it's in A minor.. they'll figure it out" :) Good luck!
Full version available?
Spotify and UA-cam, Lots of Craig's music.
