Sir your Grandpa was a smart man.. I so agree with grandpa.. Aint noone else that can belt out a better country tune in my book. George is the all time #1 in my book brother👍
This rich sultry soulful voice that got sweeter with age can never be duplicated! A song's bestfriend. He threw in everything effortlessly! The VERY BEST!😎🌎❤️💥
Jacqueline Ramphal I’m 15 and can’t get enough of George, I’ve listened to just about every song of his, love them all! I even made a couple playlists of just George! Maybe one day I could continue real country music, none of today’s country music!
Imagine growing up in this time period and hearing about all of George Jones struggles with alcoholism and drugs an your in that crowd an he shows up and performs this song! I mean listening to this on my phone makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up! I can’t imagine being there live in person
There is many great singers george mel street j cash merle hag Hank W Jimmy Rodgers list go s on they are great and better when singing they no one is better.....
George jones will never die!! As long as his music is out there he will live for ever!! My grandfather used to love him I never understood it but now that hes passed on to greater pastures I'm able to realize how great geroge really was!! George is the king PERIOD
How have I missed this song by George all these years? He is my favorite of all time. This sounds eerily like the story of his life. Thanks for sharing.
Edna Carelock Prolly cause you didn't own any of his work?You only know what the radio wanted you ta know!I've been singing this one ever since it came out & still got it on two albums I have of his!
You're right, Kenny, I was single most of my adult life and bills had to be paid. Mostly listened to the radio. If I had it to do over, I would probably build a George Jones collection and cut back on other things. It just felt like we would have him around forever. I did see him in concert three times. That first time was when I fell in love with him. He kept singing song after song that I didn't even know were his, and I thought wow, I have to pay more attention to this guy! I did and he is in my opinion the greatest of all time. Thanks to youtube I can watch his videos all the time.
Every time I see Jones perform a song, the same ole' thought comes to mind... "Damn... That man could SING" ...There are none better than George Jones. The man made it look easy... yet every country singer for the last 60 years wishes they could reproduce that sound... and they all fall short.
just recently heard what WAYLON said;" I f WE ALL could sound like we wanted to, We would ALL sound like .................GEORGE JONES" ! Well said Waylon. hahahaha
They say I'm somebody so I try to live up to the name But I'm just not that good at dealin' with fortune and fame I've made mistakes, more than I care to recall But one way or another I always get over the fall. I'm a survivor, I've paid my dues I wrote the book on hard knocks and I've bathed in the blues I've been the feature on the six o'clock news Well, I'm a survivor, dancin' the blues. Sometimes I'd wonder how I've managed to live through it all Yes, I've spent a lifetime of living with my back to the wall The records will show that I've had my share of regrets But as long as I'm breathing you ain't heard the last of me yet. I'm a survivor, I've paid my dues Doing my best with the hand that I drew Just playing the part Lord, I couldn't refuse Yeah, I'm a survivor win, draw or lose. Yeah, I'm a survivor win, draw or lose
I am listening to a podcast called “Cocaine and Rhinestones”. If you want to learn more about what George was singing about in this song, you should check it out. What that man went through is unbelievable. CR 029/PH15 “Hell Stays Open All Night Long”. You can skip over the long introduction about the history of cocaine use and go right the the section on George. It is completely heartbreaking.
So very nice guy love to hear about your life and not hers. You have been trying to us me again to help her with her things but she can pay for her self. And I really mean it . Because I am not going to do anything that I am not allowing her to at all
William Nimbach This is actually past his downward spiral in the late 70’s early 80’s, past addiction but still drinking for sure a bit here in 1988 haha. Very cool video though for sure! George is the absolute best!
My Grandpa used to tell me when I was a kid if George Jones ain't singing it then it ain't country nobody could sing it like him.RIP
Sir your Grandpa was a smart man.. I so agree with grandpa..
Aint noone else that can belt out a better country tune in my book.
George is the all time #1 in my book brother👍

That ol' golden voice! And to be honest with you, I think he sounded even better when he started to show a little age. Jones!
It got deeper, and way better, the older he got, jones live performances are worth their weight in gold...
Much love...
That's right.i saw him at the wv state fair when he sang I don't need no rocking chair
His hair sure was a change ! Very nice! ❤❤❤
I thought I had heard everything
George had recorded, so this is a surprise! He is my all time favorite! I listen frequently, he is the “BEST”.
This ties in so beautifully with " Choices " .
I love how he wore leisure suits up till the end of the 80s.
Simply the best never be another

Country music begins and ends with George Jones.
My favorite era for his voice is the 80s. It was perfection. I'm sure the hard living helped somehow.
My God, what a pure, clear voice! He sang straight from his heart.
Nobody better.
There is no one better then George Jones!
Tom Page the man could sing and I could listen to him all night
Love the possum

Edna Carelock I've been researching and learning his songs and singing them for about a little over 15 years I can't get enough

Love George and Tammy together and apart I’ll miss them till I’m gone
Just when you think you have seen it all. You tube never ceases to amaze.
What a voice and he sure could phase those words that held your heart.

The absolute best country singer ever.

They say I'm somebody so I try to live up to the name
But I'm just not that good at dealin' with fortune and fame
I've made mistakes, more than I care to recall
But one way or another I always get over the fall.
I'm a survivor, I've paid my dues
I wrote the book on hard knocks and I've bathed in the blues
I've been the feature on the six o'clock news
Well, I'm a survivor, dancin' the blues.
Sometimes I'd wonder how I've managed to live through it all
Yes, I've spent a lifetime of living with my back to the wall
The records will show that I've had my share of regrets
But as long as I'm breathing you ain't heard the last of me yet.
I'm a survivor, I've paid my dues
Doing my best with the hand that I drew
Just playing the part Lord, I couldn't refuse
Yeah, I'm a survivor win, draw or lose.
Yeah, I'm a survivor win, draw or lose
The man with the plan
Great song🎤
Still the greatest
God can sing!

Sad todays so called country is far from this. No talent hacks are on the radio today

Beautiful song

Sweet. Who wrote this?
According to the songwriter credits on 1987's 'Too Wild Too Long' album the writers of this song are Keith Stegall and Jim McBride.
Man does he look bad here! Sounds great! But you can tell he’s fighting addiction
William Nimbach This is actually past his downward spiral in the late 70’s early 80’s, past addiction but still drinking for sure a bit here in 1988 haha. Very cool video though for sure! George is the absolute best!
