Chorus:
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free, no no
And, feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues
You know, feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

Thats for sure!
❤
A Rhode Scholar that gave it up ...
A fokkin Rhode Scholar.

4 friends making beautiful music together 6/2024 we love it
hell ya
They were the very best EVER 👍👍👍❤️
Amen
What makes them shine the most is they are real.
So true..real blood
This performance brings tears. Rest peacefully, Kris. Now Willie's the last one standing.
He was a humble man he wrote so many songs that a lot of his peers recorded he will be missed by all who loved him, my condolences to the family rest in pease KRIS YOU WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN ❤️🩹✝️
Same
I know sad...and who would have ever thought that Willie would be the last man standing??
😢
My wife and I were there, and it was one of best concerts that we ever attended. Thank you, Highway Men! I know that some of you have passed, but I will remember you all until my final day! God bless you all.
I wish I could have been there😭😭
Lucky sob's what a night you must've had watching these legends
I’m not jealous. I’m not jealous. I’m happy for you really. 😂😂
Congratulations on being able to see these legends perform together! I’m grateful we live in an age I can watch 40 years later.
Am so jealous you were there, what a concert!
@davidmarsh7432 nice one 👍
What a life Kris has had! We should all be so lucky!
Wait you wrote this 5 months ago? How?
It wasn't just luck. The biggest ingredient in Kris's success was TALENT! In spades.
I am South African. It is nice to see the best of the best all together. Period, I do not think we will ever see this again. Save this one.
Fellow South African here! Totally agree with you. Star is born movie with Streisand…. Amazing
I wonder.... it took a while for these four amazing souls to mellow into their music.... and then learn how to blend it into this magic. But I will never, ever stop listening to the Highwaymen .
Yes Guys, your'right. Rockabilly, Rock and Roll, Blues and Country Music will never died. Hi from France.
J’ai 76 ans et fan de toujours
И из России привет
Is anyone listening on September 29, 2024, the day Kris passed on? R.I.P.
You bet!
Canada listening...drove tractor trailer across USA listening to Kris,Waylon,Johnny and Willie.
Right here with you my friend!
@@SuperTinman2009Nice...you took them with you!!
@RonnieBaby2112
And many times before; and there'll be many more times since. 10/10/24
We will never see anything with as much class as these 4 legends ever again❤
Every decade gives us great people. We just miss it sometimes bc its not our jam.
The best of the best.
for sure
@🎉rapier1954
😅
These guys don’t even have to work to sing harmony together. It’s so natural for them to do it.
Just think what today's kids and adults are going to miss today never be a greater group or guys they didn't have to try just hang out together And it was amazing.
Mark my words folks. There will never be another era in country music with the talent gathered on one stage than that of the American Outlaws!
My mom in law had never been 2 a concert and Itiok her k. Roger's was there too and she came just as they were escorting him 2 the stage
@@roxanedavis957 great country music love it
The musicians of today would not lace the shoes of that gang they were perfection at its best 👌👌🇨🇮🇨🇮
Is the best of the free life behind us now, and are the good times really over for good? Stop rolling downhill with the democrats heading for hell, let's all reelect President Trump and ring the Liberty bell, let's make a ford and a Chevy run on Affordable American oil like they should
❤️❤️🏴🏴
From the U.k...I thought I knew my music . I know this song but never herd it performed this way . Just brilliant ! This is 2023 and I'm now seventy six and don't really listen to this modern stuff... but what I do know they don't write and performs song like this anymore . Pure perfection . This song will never die ,..... know matter what !
Got a year on u. I think these 4 are the best country musicians there ever were.
This was the first song, Kris K., wrote preformed by Janis Joplin.
This is the guy who wrote it. Kris kristophersen. One of the few to actually deserve the title "Legend" and of course, Willy, Waylon and Johnny C. What more can be said!
I am old very old, been bombed,shot at, poor surroundings but always loved music. Big bands,rock n roll Beatles, me. Modern, Country. But these four are something else. Never tire of listening, watching,(thanks tomofrrn technology)They are the best in my lifetime. Thank you Highwaymen.God bless you all.
Kris K is one of the best song writers and story tellers that this world will ever know
Along with Robert Hunter and Bob Dylan
Paul Simon, John Prine, Joni Mitchell…
Jerry Reed
Carol King, please...
He led a remarkable life.
"Freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose" is the greatest lyric ever written
RIP Kris Kristofferson. Thank you so much for the great music you created ❤
Just read of Kris's passing. Sitting outside watching this video on my phone, the sun broke through the clouds on shined down on the screen whilst Kris was singing the chorus. Very fitting I thought. RIP Kris.
Fuckin' A
❤❤❤🇨🇱🥲🥲🥺🥺🥲🥲
If Mount Rushmore had country legends engraved instead of presidents.These 4 would be inscribed on that mountain.God bless them all for their contribution to humanity.
Absolutely
The guy on harmonica is pretty special. Could listen to him all day long.
Mickey Rafael was Willie's brother-in-law at one rime.
He is so very very good ❤ 4:12

Real folks, real music, ton of talent. Just enjoyable music, don't over think it.
Rest in peace Chris, just got the sad news last night, Sept. 29th of 2024... Thanks for such a great lot of songs you wrote and performed, the movies you were in and for the Highway Men. You all get together in heaven now and say hello to Johnny and Waylon for us.
RIP Kris Kristofferson. Thank you for the great music, hope you're jamming with Johnny and making the angels smile. ♥️
"From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California Sun"
What a line. And delivered with perfection!
From one side of the country to the other as well as from dark to light. Truly brilliant writing saying so much so simply
Waymore = ❤😂🎉😅😊
This is what happens when the teacher puts the best students together in one group
This ancient grandma says, " Hell Yes ! " And ......I am still an active teacher at 76 !
The best of the best !
"Our dead are never dead to us until we have forgotten them" x
Mr. Kris Kristoffersen, ich habe Dir gerne zugehört. Aber irgendwann ist alles zu Ende. So ist der Lauf der Welt. Ruhe in Frieden und Gottes Segen für Dich und Deine Liebsten 💕💕
FIVE legends to me...Mickey Raphael on harmonica was every bit as crucial to this wonderful collaboration of musicians. Music will never be as good as this again.
Six :) please, do count Reggie Young
Lisa Miller you got that spot on he is amazing talent
You are sure right with this comment.
You have not heard Neil Diamond's Hot August Night.
I believe this Mickey showed up playing tunes with Neil Young and Willie Nelson at a Farm Aid concert.
Enjoy people, don’t think we will ever have another talent on stage as the highwaymen again !
They are just blowing my mind.. soooo goooood for my eares and the joy they are having on stage... What a fantastic gig !!!!!! Love from Norway....T...
So true 👍
The Traveling Wilbury's? It's a tough call.
You got that right!....
Absolutely never can be duplicated! The Highwaymen were special!!!❤️
The four Giants.. I wish I could turn back time and sit in the first row. There will never be 4 giants like them anymore. They are not just playing country music like no one else, they are country music. I, m so glad that we still have Kris and Willie. RIP Waylon and Johnny..
Amen to that, who would be today's Highwaymen ? Will never be matched I think 🙂
They were brilliant!!
tal cual, pienso igual, son y serán únicos!!!!
I wish I could belly up to a bar, and buy them all a beer, then, I could die happy and content...!
Amen ,,,
This was the Greatest Country / Outlaw Country music ever made. They're never be a duplicate , you can't re- create Greatness
SO VERY TRUE ❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶
Very true. I miss them so much ❤
Look at Kris, the smile on his face as his song is being sung by some of the best musicians ever!!!
I agree, Apsco---Kris has always appreciated that his efforts were appreciated by his talented friends.
Kris is so handsome even today at his age
@@annettespencer8154gotta admit you’re right. Good looking old dude. Talented beyond belief too I personally think his voice has gotten better with age
Including himself. He’s got a great voice
@@nobodyspecial6513 ciao amico! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🍀
Been a listener for 50 years. RIP Kris
They don't get much better than this.Men who could sing without Screaming and shouting.What a group of unbelievable men.
This ancient grandma says, " Hell Yes ! "
Old fashioned word. Talent.
Without autotune too! The romanticism of these songs and singers is dead.
Well screaming can be great, but that is a whole different genre altogether.
Legends one and all
So sad to hear about Kris' passing, he IS the definition of Country Music. The genre will never be the same without this legend. Willie still here holding the candle for them all. 💕
O my the guy on the harmonica is killing it, true legend
Micky Rapheal a brilliant player, always with Willie Nelson
He is. Any idea which key harmonica he's using?
That is just what I was thinking. And the piano, fabulous, which has a touch of jazz in it.
@@eileenroberts5478 - Yes, the harmonica and the keyboard revved up, took flight, and went to visit Tony Joe White!
They are music, they have made people's lives much better with their music
The way Waylon booms "From the coalmines of Kentucky to the California Sun" is just phenomenal
Idem for Cash
You might want to give a listen to Waylon live, from 1975, it is my favorite version and Waylon is at his peak. It’s my favorite version of me and Bobby McGee.
Amazing isn't it
Thanks so much for the love ❤️ I really appreciate, I hope you will never stop listen to my music 🎶.. If you don’t mind kindly drop me your google chat just to get in touch with you
Legends. I’ll trade all my tomorrow’s for one single yesterday.
RIP Kris....im 67...been a fan forever.... saddens me to lose another great one....thanks for making life more bearable...
I never realized that Kris Kristofferson wrote "Me and Bobby McGee!"
Not only that, but Kris is also a United States Army Captain, having served as a helicopter pilot and a qualified U.S. Army Ranger. A true American badass outlaw!
He wrote that about Janis Joplin. He was quite a interesting character. A Rhodes scholar, could’ve taught at West Point, and the list goes on
He was a great songwriter
@@brunojaysutterHe didn’t wrote it about Janis J. Think Barbara McKee. Look for it.😊
@@jamesmartins7130 yes Barbara McKee was his record company secretary and you're right he wrote the song about her altho Janis Joplin recorded the definitive version of Bobby McGee
i never liked the janis joplin version.
I'm still here 73yrs old listening to all there music the greatest icons ever love betsy amen 🙏❤🙏❤️
All of 70 + s need to get together. We’re the end of the baby boomers
Wow, ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER, SINGING A GREAT SONG! John P.
Kris, each week i listen to your music.... but you left. Rest in peace cowboy.... your music will live forever.
The harmonica player needs LOTS more recognition for his excellent work!!!!!!
👌👌👌
Mickey Raphael on harp!! Always the best. /CD
AGREE..Mickey sure gets it done!! Best I have ever heard!!!
ursel doran - he sure does, I am surprised he doesn’t get more attention he is in all the best Videos
Mickey Raphael has been playing the harp with Willie Nelson’s band since 1973 (7,000 shows).
If I could go back in time to any concert ever, it would be this one. A stage full of legends having fun with their friends, singing some of the greatest songs ever penned. Blissful ❤
The greatest!
If only we could back to these times. Godbless you
Totally agree, from a Scotsman
Great.song..❤
Amen
This is the most talent ever amassed on the same stage. Could you imagine the price of concert tickets for this concert if it were today? These guys are just. naturally laid back doing what they were meant to do entertain. They are all in tune no fancy jewelry or clothes just a normal people. These want to be singers today could never keep up this is real country.
Yes yes and yes
sooooooooooooo true!
I agree
True
True!
RIP Kris. Willie is the last one standing. What a collection of talent.
Is it fair to say that this Highwaymen concert in 1990 was one of the greatest live shows of the entire 20th century?
i just can't get enough of it. Truly as someone said, the Mount Rushmore of country.
Yes I agree and I am English. Always playing it.
Aye has to be one of the greats of all time what would we give to see them live tomorrow? Just 2 left now Willie never got the credit he deserved
Absolutely concur , he swept floors and helicopters
Kris and Willie, hang in for us.
Those who were lucky enough to be part of this concert have undoubtedly got their money's worth! What a magnificent performance! And what a legacy to the fans.
R.I.P. dear Johnny, R.I.P. dear Waylon! ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
Fantastic!
Yep
Oo
R.I.P drahý Kris.
He lived a legendary life, he achieved many dreams and went through a lot. He’s gone but his legacy, memories and art will forever remain with us all.
Highwaymen never die. RIP Kris
Kris Kristofferson delivered greatness wherever he went; and through the darkness there will always be a light found from within his words and stories that spread truth in its simplest form, which is through honest and heartfelt music writing. Any artist who has the privilege of adaptating his music for their own deserves the feeling of belonging and the journey to greatness that is given through his preserving lines that stay great, relevant and true to this day and many more days to come.
Man what a show. We will never see its like again.
Never
Very good
I wanted to reply with something, but you already said it.👍
Can’t beat that
Watching legends
Rest in Peace Kris Kristofferson. Thanks for the decades of entertainment.
When God said…”let me put four great musicians together and make everybody happy”….❤️😀👍
Yep ....I said it alright.
I call them legends of country music. They always make me happy.
Those 4 Wonderful men of
Country music, wonderful singer's
An performances, shall never see ,
Same again.
I still love them all,still play their music,and song.
Was real Country Music.
Were lucky to see all the video 's of them.
Even though some of them ,have pass'ed away,sadly.
Alway's be in my heart and memories.
God Bless them.
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🕊🕊🕊
All great friends to-gether.
Saw Chris do tribute to Johnny, could see it hurt him.
Thank you.x x 🕊🕊🕊🕊🎸🎸🎸🎸
Woke this morning to the news that Kris had passed. Have loved him and his music since early 70s and saw him live 4 times ad once with the Highwayment - brilliant songwriter who will be missed.
Don't forget the backup players. The keyboards, Reggie's guitar etc, are no❤the ❤headliners but make the headliners job easier.
So true! No one can be taken for granted! The guys in the back to the roadies and sound-light guys! 💘
My son in law once worked lighting for Dave Matthew's Band
I am in the hospital just coming out of major invasive foot surgery . Very painful and listening to your rendition helps me endure the pain. I am 73 yoa and things like this not as easy to endure. Ian would be proud.
Ich hoffe dass es Ihnen wieder gut geht. Es ist ja schon ein Jahr her.Liebe Grüße aus Thüringen von einen Country Fan.❤❤❤❤
Without a doubt my favorite boyband.
These are MEN😉 with more talent than most.I would call them my favorite super group.
R.I.P. Kris, you'll be missed forever and may God keep Willie for years to come. Yes, he's the only one left but the Highwaymen and their music is pretty much alive🖤🖤🖤❤️
You are listening to a stage full of quality singers that have inspired millions worldwide.
Kris Kristofferson can't carry a tune.
@@johns363 he can write it down with the best of them though.
@@CeCefka You're absolutely right.
This ancient grandma says, " Hell Yes ! " And ......I am still an active teacher at 76 !
This is the America the world loved, why we have lost it?.
One word: COMMIES
I'm not American but yes I agree
New time, new generation but thanks for TH-cam, we can still watch the greats..
Boromir Smith The only influence that has changed the culture of America for the worse in the last three decades is fascism.
because we let wrong people take over our country.
Thank you for being among us.❤
This ancient grandma says, " Hell Yes ! "
"I would trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday" ~ that's some poetry right there
There will never be this many superstars of country music in their own rights assembled on the same stage! Damn I wish I was a teenager in this era so I could go to all these concerts! 🙌🏾🤩
Some us weren't teenagers
Me too
That guitar playing is something else, singing is fantastic too
If your feet are not tapping you must be dead, Greatest live concert in the history of music, will never be bettered, 4 legends together, 77 years old and priveleged to be able to listen to this concert as often as i like, thank you for this post.
This music is more than just country, it is classic, and will last for generations.
The talent on that single stage is unreal. All icons and they'll never grow old - the music is timeless!
So very true
More talant on that stage than in today's top 40
@@alastairclunie7232 More talent there than the entire music world can muster today
I Wish i could turn back time, just to hear them live one time.
Same here.
@Oscar Hester look at it this way Oscar, what you are seeing and listening to will forever live in TH-cam and can be listened to again and again.
Anita Veka I wasn’t even born 😭
I got to see them all in concert.
I'd have give both my right and left 🤔.. nut (😲your what !?..lol ) to have seen them live ... but was in the Navy in Japan when they toured 😞
“Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose,
nothing ain’t worth nothing but it’s free,
(and it cost nothing). WHAT BRILLIANT WORDS!
Imortais!
RIP KRIS ❤
Say hi to my dad,
THE HIGHWAYMEN was his favourite ❤
Four giants, no egos, amazing songs, world class band. It can't be bettered.
Well said. Love their songs. Love country music. Couldn’t be better.
Voices heaven
Four people enjoying playing, entertaining and each others company, no egos getting in the way, good times and great music. Where did these times go?
amen
Probably buried under a pile of bad music
These times are gone forever, except on replay. It’s snowflakes from here on out, ha ha! Get used to canned country music, or better yet, flip back to the past.
I couldn’t of said it any better.
These guys would be Patriots singing for President Trump if they were alive together.
From a Retired old Pastor from Australia
To heaven and they will stay there😁
I keep coming back to their music and song because it is the best
Hey how are you doing…?😊
1990 - the year when great music was still blooming: older country boys like this, melodic rock, blues, hard rock, pop - and all of it of great quality.
Rip Kris Kristofferson
Four legends, One left. I'm not a religious man, but I pray to all the gods out there to grant long life to Willie.
@@mrflappie6553Grandevtristesse pour moi en apprenant

At 67, I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday. Thanks, Kris! Love to all!
It just doesn't get much better than this - what a great bunch of music-makers.
Janus would have loved to been on the stage with them.
the highway men need more be said. never talent like that again i had the priveldge to see them live
There Will Never Be Another One Of These Four There Are The Greatest of All Time
Best country group by far, I'm 22 and love these guys, Wish i could have been there to see them perform
Massive love for the band and all the crew that put this together. The truck drivers, the riggers , the carpenters, sound engineers etc. A lot of people work really hard and spend basically all their time making an excellent show just for us.
Thanks so much for the love ❤️ I really appreciate, I hope you will never stop listen to my music 🎶.. If you don’t mind kindly drop me your google chat just to get in touch with you❤️❤️❤️
I agree
@@kriskristofferson6204 lol
I have never gotten tired of loving

Dont forget the impresarios without whom none of the previously mentioned workers would be doin didly squat
I'd trade all my tomorrow's for one single yesterday, one of the best lines I've ever heard, so magical!!
Amen
Feeling bout as faded as my jeans.
Used to play and sing this with my Dad Oh what funHe played so well Hes gone now but what memories of endless hours of playing and annoying the neighbours 💖😘
It sure is!
Very magical, yet very tragic
Rip Kris. One awesome preformer and songwriter. Thanks for everything.
If ever a song told a story, this is it.
RIP Waylon and Johnny.
🇺🇸🏴
Waylon and Johnny were both of Irish heritage too 🇮🇪❤️🇺🇸❤️🏴 rip
Hard to believe this band really ever came together...a musical miracle
Super super
Country music at its best.great sound thanks band .u/k x😊😊
"Freedom just another word for nothin left to lose" is one of the best lines i heard in a song
Amen to that!
Thank you janis...
"I'd trade all my tomorrows for one single yesterday"
I bet.
Chris Kristofferson wrote this song in 1969.
That sweet voice will live forever. Thanks Kris.
Best artists on one stage-Waylon, Willie, Johnny, Kris & Mickey!! Thank you for the memories!!
That's why Trump can't sing just talks bullshit, bone spurs is his sorry song.
Thanks for adding Mickey to your cudos!
For those of us who grew up in the golden era of music, this provides chills and memories beyond belief. 😍😍
george jones sang "whose gonna take their place" looks like NOBODY, so sad.
they just don"T MAKE THEM LIKE THAT ANYMORE. why?
These men were stars in their own right, and elected to perform together, leaving egos at home. We're better for it.
You're right
Yes, and aren’t we the lucky ones, they are magic 🎶🎶
It doesn't! and sadly won't ever, be done better than this folks!!!!! They were the GOAT plain and simple! And so miss the manly men, where have they all gone????
Kris , Waylon , Johnny and Willie ! Four giants ! So good to see them smile, they're so happy to sing together and this song is wonderful.
Marty needs to be on that stage. Too bad he died in 1982. He was the most talented out of all those incredible musicians. Johnny and Marty were real close friends.
Doesn't Waylon have a lovely voice. I don't think I ever noticed that before.
@tomtolbert32 l
Don't forget Reggie Young in the back playing all those beautiful fills on a guitar.
Thanks for your wonderful comments, I really do appreciate you as a super fan and this is my own way of saying I love you guys, this is my chat mail. Send me a message via: privatekriskristoffesoncomm@gmail.com
Imagine actually being there..we will never see again in our lifetime, such an amazingly talented group creating such synergy...wow !!
The fucking best brother...
Wow this rendition of Kris’s song is just the best. I’ve rewound it five times on this go-round as it’s so great. I visit this concert often as these guys are so my favorite band. They all have respect for each other and it shows, how many times do you see this in a group that’s been around for years. Lovely to watch. Makes my heart soar listening to them. Ahhhh.
Hello how are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
I am from Sweden but I look at this every day and love it
Me too…..every day this lifts my spirit and assures me of a great attitude for the rest of the day no matter what comes!
What I love about this video is its life, joy, and energy. You can just feel it, as if you were right there in the middle of the concert, two inches from the stage. Those guys all lived hard, tough lives, but at this very moment, they are as happy as they've ever been!
This is a legend in country music with four big country musicians!! Love this forever! Love you Kris!!
