I completely understand how this songs clearly makes you feel and I know just how emotional exactly how it feels to lose the person we love, I lost my wife 4yrs ago on a crossroads she was hit by a drunk truck driver, It’ would be nice to talk to you more if you don’t mind ??
No one will ever have the talent of yesterdays real musicians. They sell their souls to the devil today and for the price of their soul they get maybe 5 years of Soundstage technology to make them sound good enough to mimic talent.
@@jeanricketts6880 Couldn’t agree more Jean. these legends have given us so much through their music. I’d love to connect and share more memories and favorites if you’re up for it!
No you're not, good music is good people, roots are where we all begin! Our rock generation came from this and it is the simpler times we remember with our Grandparents!✌❤🎸
Back before the studios controlled what they wrote and sang. No one can fill their shoes because they weren't looking for fame and money. They sang from the heart.
@jonnyapples9429 unfortunately I was to young to really remember him talking about it but I'll ask my mother and get back to you. I know he was a handyman and did a lot of work for a few country stars.
Nobody can fill their shoes. I don't think we'll ever hear country like this ever again and it breaks my heart. Tag me so I'll know everyone that agrees with me.
It's very rare an artist pays tribute to other artists in such a wholesome and touching way, especially when said artist is one that so many others look up too!
The outlaw walking - I am older & was lucky enough to see most mentioned including "no show" himself. He did show. Never listen to current what ever is not country today. No One is answer to question.
@@BKKri77er um, that's not what the expression means. Basically, it means, 'Who will take their place as the legends of country music?', not who will copy them.

@@edwardcollins8102 I'm sure that somewhere right now the very next revolutionary country music artist is in the first grade and studying hard. (Fingers crossed)
What's most telling about this masterpiece is George might as well be paying tribute to himself. Easily one of the greatest country songs ever from the genius himself. RIP GJ
Easily one of the best tribute songs ever. I am far from the greatest country fan ever but when I see the faces the of giants who've passed, I feel the emptiness.
1987. My Dad died at 57. A Southern Baptist Pastor. Beloved by so many. Wonderful father; excellent Pastor; beloved friend, but my Daddy. As I rode in the backseat of that big stretch limousine that sad day, George Jones' song stayed in my mind on loop. "WHO'S Gonna Fiil their Shoes?" Daddy was one of a kind. It took years to fill his pulpit. Nobody could measure up. Still can't, after 37 years. Thank you, George Jones, for this haunting, wonderful ode to heroes...❤
I urge all of my fellow George fans to always share this music. I have an 11 year old grandson that sings these songs when hes out helping me work in my yard. This music should never ever Die
A woman can cry. She holds her emotions on her sleeve. It's the way God made her. When a full grown man breaks down like this, it's raw and it's pure. And it hurts to watch. 😢
This song means more and more the older you get. Its not until more years are behind you than in front of you that we can respect the efforts of all those who lived before us and tried to make a difference in a world that is filled with turmoil.
My grandfather starts to cry every time this song comes on and he told me that it will hit me the older I get and he is the reason I love most classics and I will have too deal with geddy lee dying and Alice cooper
I agree with you and admire your good sense of humor, I guess you're a country music lover? His song are emotional when it comes to good music, you deserve a compliment .... How are you doing today? God bless you and your family
I'm not trying to contradict anything you are saying about the great country music musicians but Conway Twitty sang "Hello Darlin" not George Jones, but all the artists from that generation were great & as the song goes..Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes 😢 unfortunately very few of today's artists can even come close to being in their league
I agree with you and admire your good sense of humor, I guess you're a country music lover? His song are emotional when it comes to good music, you deserve a compliment .... How are you doing today? God bless you and your family
No artist wants to feel another man's shoes and the greats of our time and handed down Through Time only because there's enough of people that know real country their lips move and give testimony to singers those greats of our time.. I think there is one or two @LEFTY@ Y
I’m okay until 3:56. “Old Marty, Hank and Lefty. Why I can feel em right here with me, on this Silver Eagle rolling through the night.” I burst into tears every time. Best country lyric performance of all time.
This song hits harder when you realize that the red-headed stranger is the only one left. RIP Jerry Lee RIP Roy RIP Man in Black RIP Carl RIP George RIP Elvis RIP Charley RIP Waylon RIP Hank RIP Merle RIP Conway and many more. So sad we lost these legends.
There’s no one to fill those shoes. Some things only come once . George Jones was one of a kind. In reality we are all one of a kind. God must think that’s a good thing or it wouldn’t be so.
I’m an old woman now and I’ve lived long enough to see so many of these great country music artists leave us. This song really speaks volumes! George Jones, I miss you and I will until I die.
I know I'm getting older, but my roots are with all those singers. Each has pulled at my heart at least once. God rest each of you, I look forward to hearing your songs once we meet.
Warren. I miss you brother. Thank you for introducing me to this song and your music. Despite me being 30 and half your age. You showed me great times.
It's so funny, back in the day if we did'nt do things rite. We got are asses whipped, now the law's are made to protect to protect such people??? it's like I can't protect my own people my own land ??? It clearly say's NO TREASPASSING ???
Many of the Greats were mentioned in this song….but personally I think only George could have sang this story and gave it the feeling that it deserves.
He had a style and class one never sees nowadays. His music made pictures, thoughts to remember, and the goodbye's we never give. God bless you Mr. George Jones.
Just because George Strait has the most #1 country hits of all time, does not mean he's King George. George Jones is King George and will always be the King of Country Music.
@@kevinchandler179 George Strait is a legend, but George Jones was and still is King George of country. He paved the way for country music superstars!! My comment is not a crazy ass comment at all!!
l agree with you, indeed George Jones is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days.
A haunting reality. Today’s country musicians do not even come close. Glad i grew up with, Hank and Lefty; George and Willie; Meryl and Johnny. All the greats are from my generation. How fortunate for me.
This is one hell of a wonderful old song. Makes you think of the old days. Old George Jones is such a classic. What a legend. He's one of the greatest artists from back in the days. Too bad we don't have any like we did back then.
Charlie Pride just passed this weekend. He was one of the greats!! Thank God for his music. It will always be timeless. And, no one will ever be able to fill his shoes!! R.I.P. Charlie. You will be missed!
I saw Charlie several times when he visited (NZ) and I listen to his (LP) Live at Panther Hall regularly. I love u-tube but there is nothing like a well kept vynyl record to reproduce the best sound.
That is so true friend, it really has gone to hell and back since the 70s and early 80s,,, times are really changing friend just sit back and take a look around you
Patrcia.. you are right about that. . I don't think any of these girls singers coming up now can sing, IF you have to get on the stage half naked to hold they're attention, your not a good singer and the majority have to dance , Theres nothing wrong with dancing or wearing clothes that show almost everthing to get attention if that's what you like, BUT you shouldn't have to do that on the stage to keep they're attention..Also I don't understand half the words they're singing. They repeat the same line over, and over, They're not telling stories ,like George and the other guys back then.. Just a couple of them do..But most of them are fast songs so they can dance on the stage., Just miss all the old singers when I was young.. Like George said, whose gonna fill they're shoes, including George's. now . SAD ALMOST ALL ARE GONE.
Damn right!!! Also, the legends he talks about as well!!! Merle, Conway, Waylon, and he himself of course!!! Charlie Daniels and Don Williams as well!!!
I completely understand how this songs clearly makes you feel and I know just how emotional exactly how it feels to lose the person we love, I lost my wife 4yrs ago on a crossroads she was hit by a drunk truck driver, It’ would be nice to talk to you more if you don’t mind ??
Every single one of them are gone along with true wholesome country music, we can all relate to at ssome point in life.. it all told a story.. not just a bunch of truck songs..
Everytime I listen to George Jones, always remember my grandpa, listening to these songs in his computer room and the smell of his cigarette. I always thought that you were gonna live forever. Miss you grandpa
Damn felt that wasn't cigarettes for me it was that smell only grandpas house had staying up late with him watching old westerns what I would do for that one more time or to see his evil grin he'd get when he did something he knew he shouldn't
I read that his wife said that the day he died he had not been talking at all for a while and they knew he’s time was almost up. He suddenly opened his eyes and smiled and and said “ Hi, I’ve been waiting for you. I’m George Jones..”. Then he closed his eyes and went to Heaven. I hope I get to meet him when I get there.
He Stopped Loving Her Today!! And This Who's Gonna Find Their Shoes!! Are Two Songs That Will Live On, And Still Be Played Long After We're Gone!! 🤔 Thanks Possum ❣️RIP 🙏😇 My Brother ❣️
I miss hearing your voice Mr.Jones coming from my Grandpa’s radio, standing beside him as we drove home down the dirt road. I miss those days and I miss my Grandpa and Mr.Jones.What an era that was! I am 44 years old now and the past 40 years have flown by! It is a strange reality when you realize that you have lived over half your life already. Embrace each day and I’ll be ready for a big family reunion when the time comes.❤️🙏
Agree. Singer, songwriter, nutter, performer and all round legend. As one of his biggest fans (my Dad) often said, "George could bring a tear to a glass eye!" The world is that little bit darker without them both!
Something about George Jones voice always gets me a little sentimental, not just that my dad played guitar and sang so many of his songs but his voice is so classic. Hard to fill those shoes
Yeah he had something special. You can play any George Jones song I never heard and it would be easy to tell that it's him. He was definitely something special .
One of Georges last and best songs. This video keeps Possum alive to me, and leaves me with a tear in my eye because of how true it is....... Who's gonna' fill their shoes......... nobody................. nobody could!
This song brings on a different type of hurt when you realize that most of these greats have already passed on. It brings on happiness to remember the sweet memories and relish in the music, though.
@@prestonmiller7326 I grew in Ky. My whole life was live music, banjos, guitars, fiddles! The front porch of my Grandparents house ! Sang and danced , I grew up that way,! We will never have those greats again! I am so so glad I grew up when I did!
Well, I'm 47 Russian. And I do know, remember (well - have some rememberance of, at least) all these songs and singers mentioned. And I do know that my daughter knows the music, singers and melodies too. Thus - music will never die, I hope so, at least. BTW - thanks to hpr.org for broadcasting not limited to counttry borders.
Country isn't my favorite genre. BUT some of the greatest singers and songs of all time are Country. This song actually brought tears to my eyes. Brought back many great childhood memories. The gas station, memorabilia and friendliness. Wonderful tribute, great artist and now Jerry. R.I.P. 😢 😭
😢 I'm not the only one feeling that way 😔 that generation is gone for ever. That's when people really cared about each other 💖 praying for the healing of the country 🙏
You're absolutely right......Good evening Ruth how are you doing over there hope you're having a wonderful day it's a lovely day that the lord has made
No matter how many times I hear this song,I get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. I don’t think anybody could “ tear your heart out” like George Jones.
This video is PURE old school right from the start when the ole timer hollers for George then backs away from the door to show respect and not intimidate at someone's front door. Pure magic
My Mom & Dad played all these wonderful Very Talented Artist, classic musicians.Love them very much & willl allways listen to these Great Musician's / Artist.just dont make them like this anymore..So Blessed to have been introduced to all the Gteat songs as i was growing up...
He was right! This song is so true! No country singer will ever compare or get this message! They just don't know what real country music is supposed to sound like anymore! This is real country music! Love you George and miss you big time!!!!
No one will come close to filling. George Jones. Shoes
Truth! This new era of country music if that’s what you wanna call it is terrible!
Amen!
Amen no one
I agree with you completely
Country music is not the same anymore
I'm a grown strong man but every time I here him sing this song and with this video I get tears in my eyes. So many are gone, so many.
George Jones had a way of making you feel what he was singing
So TRUE
Same here
I'm with you
Me too
No one will ever fill their shoes

Don’t need to compare them. Both are real country singers. The real fight is against the shit that’s passed off as country now
Roy Acuff was the first king of country music.
No point in the comments, they were all legends!!@ This song should show you, Merle, Willie, Waylon, and Jonny Cash!!! All have been amazing 👏
George Strait is amazing as well, so let's not forget that and make crazy 😜 ass comments!!! The possum is a legend, but so is George Strait!!!
@@kevinchandler179 George Strait is a legend, but George Jones was and still is King George of country. He paved the way for country music superstars!! My comment is not a crazy ass comment at all!!
Still listening to George Jones in November 17th 2024 rest in peace George Jones
No there'll never be another one like him, his voice will always echo through the years.
I love George Jones and no one can fill his shoes.❤
George Jones was my dads favorite musician
l agree with you, indeed George Jones is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days.
George Jones is one of the best rest easy George
A haunting reality. Today’s country musicians do not even come close. Glad i grew up with, Hank and Lefty; George and Willie; Meryl and Johnny. All the greats are from my generation. How fortunate for me.
My Papa was born in 1932 he said his favorite singer was George Jones. I have to agree with him. I was born in 1974.
This is one hell of a wonderful old song. Makes you think of the old days. Old George Jones is such a classic. What a legend. He's one of the greatest artists from back in the days. Too bad we don't have any like we did back then.
Charlie Pride just passed this weekend. He was one of the greats!! Thank God for his music. It will always be timeless. And, no one will ever be able to fill his shoes!! R.I.P. Charlie. You will be missed!
Loved Charlie
Charlie was one of my mother-in-law s favorite singers ,that Lady had good taste.
I saw Charlie several times when he visited (NZ) and I listen to his (LP) Live at Panther Hall regularly. I love u-tube but there is nothing like a well kept vynyl record to reproduce the best sound.
Charlie died of covic 19 pandemic of the world.
America in 2023 is not the same country I grew up in. George summed it up best in this timeless song. How things have gone to hell in this world.
Immigration has destroyed The US. That's what happened. Zionists and our politicians are to blame.
I can't believe I got so lucky I am truly blessed
That is so true friend, it really has gone to hell and back since the 70s and early 80s,,, times are really changing friend just sit back and take a look around you
@@ShirleyGreerhopcuspierceglad to say I glad you blessed , need to pass it along to others who ain't so well off
I'm here boss ❤ minding gold for Jesus George ❤😊
NO ONE Can Fill George Jones Shoe’s🙂🎶♥️
Patrcia.. you are right about that. . I don't think any of these girls singers coming up now can sing, IF you have to get on the stage half naked to hold they're attention, your not a good singer and the majority have to dance , Theres nothing wrong with dancing or wearing clothes that show almost everthing to get attention if that's what you like, BUT you shouldn't have to do that on the stage to keep they're attention..Also I don't understand half the words they're singing. They repeat the same line over, and over, They're not telling stories ,like George and the other guys back then.. Just a couple of them do..But most of them are fast songs so they can dance on the stage., Just miss all the old singers when I was young.. Like George said, whose gonna fill they're shoes, including George's. now . SAD ALMOST ALL ARE GONE.
After goerge jones was born they broken the mold
@@norma4363 I agree
Damn right!!! Also, the legends he talks about as well!!! Merle, Conway, Waylon, and he himself of course!!! Charlie Daniels and Don Williams as well!!!
I completely understand how this songs clearly makes you feel and I know just how emotional exactly how it feels to lose the person we love, I lost my wife 4yrs ago on a crossroads she was hit by a drunk truck driver, It’ would be nice to talk to you more if you don’t mind ??
15 years
Yes no one will ever fill his shoes.And yes every song tears my heart out.He was and will always be a blessing
No k kn k in I h bag get by glnom k you know jibtn CChfjcyjfff
Every single one of them are gone along with true wholesome country music, we can all relate to at ssome point in life.. it all told a story.. not just a bunch of truck songs..
Look up Charley Crockett. I recommend hard times as a person favorite
@@hammerface1682 Yes I do like him.
Hello Donna how are you doing over there?
Everytime I listen to George Jones, always remember my grandpa, listening to these songs in his computer room and the smell of his cigarette. I always thought that you were gonna live forever. Miss you grandpa
❤😭
Damn felt that wasn't cigarettes for me it was that smell only grandpas house had staying up late with him watching old westerns what I would do for that one more time or to see his evil grin he'd get when he did something he knew he shouldn't
Man lived his own way. Respect.
@@hunterc4561 Gun smoke and Wagon Train! I remember watching those
Same here thanks for the memories.
❤❤. Nobody can ever fill your shoes. George Jones ❤❤❤❤
Rest in paradise Mr. Jones. We miss you sir. 😪
🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭
Hero’s get remembered but legends never die
I read that his wife said that the day he died he had not been talking at all for a while and they knew he’s time was almost up. He suddenly opened his eyes and smiled and and said “ Hi, I’ve been waiting for you. I’m George Jones..”. Then he closed his eyes and went to Heaven. I hope I get to meet him when I get there.
He Stopped Loving Her Today!! And This Who's Gonna Find Their Shoes!! Are Two Songs That Will Live On, And Still Be Played Long After We're Gone!! 🤔 Thanks Possum ❣️RIP 🙏😇 My Brother ❣️
Fill Their Shoes!! Lol💆💝
Hello Deborah! How are you doing?
I miss hearing your voice Mr.Jones coming from my Grandpa’s radio, standing beside him as we drove home down the dirt road. I miss those days and I miss my Grandpa and Mr.Jones.What an era that was! I am 44 years old now and the past 40 years have flown by! It is a strange reality when you realize that you have lived over half your life already. Embrace each day and I’ll be ready for a big family reunion when the time comes.❤️🙏
Me2 god. Bless
@@paddyjanvier3036 Love and prayers to you. ♥️🙏
Amen
@RidgeRunner me too. Life is always changing. All love to you and your family.♥️
The Ron Paul Liberty Report.
❤. Rest in Peace 🕊️🕊️. George Jones ❤❤
I can't even listen to this song without my eyes filling with tears!
Hello Dawn how are you doing over there?
I agree. Because in this day and age no one's going to fill their shoes.
I'm listening & crying now, Dawn!!
I feel you.
👍
I don't think we will ever see anyone like George Jones.
May He RIP
Not in this lifetime
Amen he was a number one country singer
Agree. Singer, songwriter, nutter, performer and all round legend. As one of his biggest fans (my Dad) often said, "George could bring a tear to a glass eye!" The world is that little bit darker without them both!
There will never be any to fill his shoes!
Agreed
Something about George Jones voice always gets me a little sentimental, not just that my dad played guitar and sang so many of his songs but his voice is so classic. Hard to fill those shoes
Yep!
Yeah he had something special. You can play any George Jones song I never heard and it would be easy to tell that it's him. He was definitely something special .
Seeing George Jones singing on this video is so special! All the collectibles were wonderful to see in 1 spot 🎶❤️
Hello how are you doing 😊
One of Georges last and best songs. This video keeps Possum alive to me, and leaves me with a tear in my eye because of how true it is....... Who's gonna' fill their shoes......... nobody................. nobody could!
This song brings on a different type of hurt when you realize that most of these greats have already passed on. It brings on happiness to remember the sweet memories and relish in the music, though.
I like you post and your picture
Anna are you single
@@davidskaggs6051 no i’m married
Hello Anna....
One of the greatest… amongst many others gone! My first concert was George Jones at 12yrs old! ❤️
Just like Elvis, There will never be another, missed so much
Hello how are you doing today
I can see George doing this. Some people are just down to earth
This song makes me tear up every time because no one will every fill their shoes and this world has gone to hell.
Listen to Sturgill and Isbell and stop listening to country radio (unless it's a country oldies station).
I'm with you. No one can hold a candle to any of them.
@@prestonmiller7326 I grew in Ky. My whole life was live music, banjos, guitars, fiddles! The front porch of my Grandparents house ! Sang and danced , I grew up that way,! We will never have those greats again! I am so so glad I grew up when I did!
We all just have to keep on hitting the repeat button till its wore out cause today's country don't have a chance to be as good
Well, I'm 47 Russian. And I do know, remember (well - have some rememberance of, at least) all these songs and singers mentioned. And I do know that my daughter knows the music, singers and melodies too. Thus - music will never die, I hope so, at least.
BTW - thanks to hpr.org for broadcasting not limited to counttry borders.
Country isn't my favorite genre. BUT some of the greatest singers and songs of all time are Country. This song actually brought tears to my eyes. Brought back many great childhood memories. The gas station, memorabilia and friendliness. Wonderful tribute, great artist and now Jerry. R.I.P. 😢 😭
Hello Cynthia how are you doing over there?
@willockrudger191gmail7 ciao Willo! Buon anno! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🎉
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!

George Jones has always been a legend! RIP Mr. Jones and God bless.
I agree. No one can fill his shoes. He will always be a part of us his music will live on forever. Thank you
There will never be another George Jones. My grandma loved his music.
Hey 👋
How are you doing ❤❤❤
😢 I'm not the only one feeling that way 😔 that generation is gone for ever. That's when people really cared about each other 💖 praying for the healing of the country 🙏
You're absolutely right......Good evening Ruth how are you doing over there hope you're having a wonderful day it's a lovely day that the lord has made
amyme❤❤😊😊
As Waylon once said "if we all sang the way we wanted to we'd all sound like George Jones" 💚🇺🇸🇮🇪🍀
❤️
No matter how many times I hear this song,I get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. I don’t think anybody could “ tear your heart out” like George Jones.
ABSOLUTELY
Vince Gill at his funeral- No one is ever gonna fill his shoes
Amen He has been my favorite since I was 13, I'm 36 and I still believe no voice can compare!
I was raised listening to Country Music . ❤❤❤❤❤❤.
There will never be another George Jones. He lives on through his music and kindness. Rip 🙏
This video is PURE old school right from the start when the ole timer hollers for George then backs away from the door to show respect and not intimidate at someone's front door. Pure magic
Hey Paul
@@caroline5275 how are you doing
George is really cool
Best quote about George Jones was by Brenda Lee when she said, " George Jones doesn't sing country songs, George Jones is a country song."
end quote.
Bill Matrisch VERY TRUE
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Bout made me choke 😓 it's sad
No doubt about it
@@diannenaworensky6698 some of the best county Music there is ever
Makes me cry every time I hear it. Makes me think of my daddy he used to play this all the time. Bittersweet memories now. 😢
Thank u mom and grandpa for playing music like this when i was young. This is country. Not what we have today.
Hello
the new stuff is country rap, pat it together and it makes crap. self explanatory.
Absolutely, the today's sounds like hit music from the 90's
It is NOT country to-day...but garbage !!
My Mom & Dad played all these wonderful Very Talented Artist, classic musicians.Love them very much & willl allways listen to these Great Musician's / Artist.just dont make them like this anymore..So Blessed to have been introduced to all the Gteat songs as i was growing up...
He was right! This song is so true! No country singer will ever compare or get this message! They just don't know what real country music is supposed to sound like anymore! This is real country music! Love you George and miss you big time!!!!
So Do I
George was one of a kind no one can take his place . No one can fill his shoes
Nobody will ever fill the boots of the LEGENDS EVER😢❤
