Everybody makes fun of classic country music like George Jones and Vern Gosdin, but then Jamey Johnson covers it and suddenly it's cool to those same naysayers. This is a great song no matter who sings it.
I wonder how many people picked on this fact. Not only is it just awesome in the truest sense to see one member of country music is honoring another, but the fact that they were both Marines says mulitudes also! Semper Fi Marines! Here and in heaven!
Armytankwelder, thanks for posting the Jamey Johnson videos from Kuwait. I went through there en route to Iraq and back in 2009-2010. You were lucky to see Jamey in such a small venue. He's the best thing out there for "real" country music today. Can't wait until he comes close enough to go see in concert. Thanks for your service.
That's good stuff right there. We need to really support Jamey so he doesn't fade away like other good country singers Nashville tends to shun. If not, we will have nothing but wannabes with bent up cowboy hats trying to look legit. Back in my day we called them "dime store cowboys".
In my humble opinion this man is the greatest singer in the world today, I defiy anyone to show me a man that can cover everthing from George Jones to Ronnie van zant. And by the way make em proud!
good sound ! enjoy hearing good country music. Id rather gouge my eyes out than listen to todays so called country music and guess what im 22 yrs old ----young folks do like good COUNTRY music!!!!!!!
One of the best living country singers. We need someone to go around making soundboard tapes of all his shows, especially these tiny little tribute and solo/duo shows - he saves some of his best performances for them.
Sorry, but that's a DAMN LIE!!! He's Not in NO WAY BETTER Than Ronnie Milsap, Alabama, George Jones, George Strait, Waylon Jennings, Conway Twitty, Keith Whitley, Randy Houser, Ronnie Dunn, Hank, Jr, and So Many Others that I can name. Sorry, but that is just "The Cold Hard Truth."
@@chrisaycock6963you slipped Randy houser and Ronnie Dunn in there LOL. Jamey clears them easily. The others I won’t say bc they didn’t first and are just as iconic
He's the greatest thing since Waylon Jennings... Love all the old guys like Waylon, Willie, Merle, George, Vern, Johnny and this guys is right up there with them.
because there aint no room on country radio for a man like jamey johnson gotta play rascal flatts and taylor swift every five minutes to fulfill those obligations to the country music corporate masters who wouldnt know good country if george jones hank williams and johnny cash all came back from the dead to form a country music super group
It is just so amazing so this man can do so many of the real country singers songs and do the so well ,guess that's why you never hear him on the radio
Wow, very glad someone uploaded this and I found it. I was a bit concerned when I see anyone covering a George Jones song but this did it more than justice!
Seems like Jamey can do justice to any cover. I hate the fact that radio stations don’t play his music....along with some others that never get air time.
@ADavis3025 this crowd was 7500 miles away from their family, protecting your freedom, so No this is the best crowd ever! Yaa! For the American soldiers!
ive lived in this town for all 28 years of my life, and its one of the worst sins that could be committed with what the music industry has turned into.......there are still extremely talented artist just like jayme but they never get to see the light of day due to all the spineless yuppies that have slowly infested the country music industry. unfortunately its past the point of no return, so enjoy jayme all you can because he may be all you will ever see or real country talent again
Hell yeah I hear ya brother I'm 23 and can't stand that pop shit that everbody else my age listens too..Grew up on Hank Sr. Waylon Merle Johnny Paycheck David Allen Coe Steve Earle...Yeah that real country shit
@uofmrebel I'm not sure who's making fun of the artists you mentioned, but they need to be thrown a beatin'! Anyway I think JJ is doing many of these Classics to Honor the Artists, but like you saidthey are just Great songs and I feel he has a nack for picking and writing his own great songs....
T swift was a pretty good country singer when she first came out I've got to give her credit there but then she fell to societies demand for pop country and then pop
oh hey bro check out my reverbnation page ...I been doing it since i was seven years old I grew up on cash Jennings ..hell my Daddy took me to see Eddie Rabitt .and Coe at state fair in 1977 and I decided right there on the handle bars of a Hog I was gonna write songs (im 44) my stuffs a cross of Blugrass Old country and Blues ...OUTLAW FOR SURE !- Wiley Ray Eisen reverbnation artist serach hit all songs ..you may like ! lots of blood beer killing! shine running etc.-peace
Ohhhh my!!!!!!! The ONLY man who should ever be allowed to cover THE POSSUM🥰
Amen to that
Most don't realize how difficult this song is to cover. My man, Jamey, just killed it.
Just made the hair on the back of my neck❤ Possum would be so proud 🤘
Country music is still around .
This is the best Possum-cover I've EVER heard. Tremendous version of a tremendous song.
The only man that could cover this song, and do it justice! God bless Jamey Johnson!
Amen
Daryle Singletary also does an awesome cover of this.. Toy should check it out
His voice is EXCELLENT for this song! Nobody can sing Everybody's Song, but his voice FITS this Song GREAT!
I name about 5 true country artist these days, and Jamey is on the top of that list!!!!
Everybody makes fun of classic country music like George Jones and Vern Gosdin, but then Jamey Johnson covers it and suddenly it's cool to those same naysayers. This is a great song no matter who sings it.
Jamey is about the only current artist that should cover the great George Jones.
I wonder how many people picked on this fact. Not only is it just awesome in the truest sense to see one member of country music is honoring another, but the fact that they were both Marines says mulitudes also! Semper Fi Marines! Here and in heaven!
I wish he'd do an album of the George's music! He's the best country singer out there today.
ericbowhunter I wish he’d do any album! Been far to long
James Carothers did one and it is great chech it out

@@tammygoins3018 It would be Awesome!!

This is when Jamey is at his best. He gets so deep in the vocals. Great country singer.
God bless the possum and Merle. Thank God Jamey is here.
HEAR HEAR. AWESOME ALL OF THEM.
Park Yoo: No doubt man! he will be one of those guys that they talk about like George Jones years from now
That's good stuff right there. We need to really support Jamey so he doesn't fade away like other good country singers Nashville tends to shun. If not, we will have nothing but wannabes with bent up cowboy hats trying to look legit. Back in my day we called them "dime store cowboys".

Wow! I love this man. First time I have heard him do one of my fav Jones songs.
This man is gifted and blessed beyond words.

RIP GEORGE JONES!!! THE OLE POSSUM WOULD BE PROUD!!! DAMN GOOD JOB JAMEY!!!
One of the best living country singers. We need someone to go around making soundboard tapes of all his shows, especially these tiny little tribute and solo/duo shows - he saves some of his best performances for them.
These guys all did a Great job for us. They really seemed to appreciated what we left at home and risked to do our service. Thanks Jamey!!
We’ve had willie,Waylon,George,and hank....now we have Jamey!!....🇺🇸👍🏼
my mouth is hanging on the floor, this is amazing
Damn son. I feel every word coming out of this man.
Armytankwelder thank you for posting this video and a big thank you for setting the record straight on the crowd. I agree that is the best crowd ever.
Thanks armytankwelder for posting, this is the first time I have listened to J.Johnson. This calls for more!
Only man that can fill those shoes Possum would agree
Jamey Johnson is the best they ever was or will be
Sorry, but that's a DAMN LIE!!! He's Not in NO WAY BETTER Than Ronnie Milsap, Alabama, George Jones, George Strait, Waylon Jennings, Conway Twitty, Keith Whitley, Randy Houser, Ronnie Dunn, Hank, Jr, and So Many Others that I can name. Sorry, but that is just "The Cold Hard Truth."
@@chrisaycock6963you slipped Randy houser and Ronnie Dunn in there LOL. Jamey clears them easily. The others I won’t say bc they didn’t first and are just as iconic
speechless,eyes watering
He's the greatest thing since Waylon Jennings... Love all the old guys like Waylon, Willie, Merle, George, Vern, Johnny and this guys is right up there with them.
He's great, but there's Alabama, George Strait, and Keith Whitley,and A He'll of a lot of artist since Waylon that's as good or better than him.
because there aint no room on country radio for a man like jamey johnson gotta play rascal flatts and taylor swift every five minutes to fulfill those obligations to the country music corporate masters who wouldnt know good country if george jones hank williams and johnny cash all came back from the dead to form a country music super group
Never had the chance to see him... But doing shows for the USO is pretty bad ass!
Fecking great!
Great, great cover if the George Jones classic.
Very well done.
It is just so amazing so this man can do so many of the real country singers songs and do the so well ,guess that's why you never hear him on the radio

i get goosebumps when i hear great country like this screw that pop stuff coming out of nashville
I love the way Jamie sounds
Waylon always said his favorite new singer was Travis Tritt and I think Travis has some outlaw in him. But I think Waymore would love Jamey!
Son if this don't move you there's just no help for you.
Haha true dat
Thomas Sharp right on

This is the perfect crowd, you can hear the man sing. I'm sure Jamey would much rather play for this crowd, even if he's not getting pay.
All vocal with a bit guitar. The best.

He's so hot singing this
Damn, son!
🔥
Wow
The real deal here...
i can smell the horseshit..

This isn't on the radio, but Shake it Off by Taylor Swift is. What a fucking travesty!
true statement right there
true statement right there
Taylor who?
Taylor swift is an embarresment to country and pop country sucks
T swift was a pretty good country singer when she first came out I've got to give her credit there but then she fell to societies demand for pop country and then pop
Even the possum would say DAM if he saw this performance
@JCJohnson9899 ummmm....pretty sure that is old maple...before all the signatures.......
boe that sounds and looks like Randy Houser on the far right.
Jamey Johnson is badass and has an epic beard but still doesn't compare to george jones
he can sing and did a great job with this song. most of his music i find boring though.
Excellent. Not close to the Possum. But very good
