Who's watching in June 2024.....
Anyone still loves Highwaymen?
Me! Rented the whole Nassau Coliseum concert not long ago.
Damn right love them
Anyone that don't love 'em is a heretik
Love them...
Me. Daily.
They are truly the Mount Rushmore of Country music
Just seeing Jonny and Waylon makes me sad to think that they are gone. George Jones once sang a song named "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" well right there on that stage are four legends that no one will.
How could you not like Willie, Waylon, Johnny, and Kris?
You probably lost your brain somewhere!!!!!!
These guys were like the Avengers of music. Individually incredible musical legends that came together and became arguably the greatest band in history.
Rest in peace, Mr. Jennings and Mr. Cash.
The original Super Band!
Respect from holland
I totally agree...there will never again be another 4 like them again
There will never again be 4 legends on 1 stage 😢
20 years ago Waylon Jennings died. He past to early❤️ Rest In Peace. From a fan in Norway
The world isn't the same without Johnny and Waylon.
Seeing those guys on stage is like looking at a country Mt.Rushmore!
Good one.
Someone should actually go make Mt. Countrymore with these four adorning it.
One of the truest and well said things ever on TH-cam. Or anywhere else! Well done!🎸
That's well said.
All of them are well known singer songwriters. It was interesting that they did not collaborate on a new piece, but covered the Guy Clark composition. That is a great tip of the hat to him.
RIP Johnny and Waylon. We'll never hear beautiful voices like these again
The best there ever whrre
Probably not they were songs from the heart.
Amen
Guy Clark has to be one of the best songwriters of all time.
Is the best
Can you imagine a song writing session with the likes of Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt and Billy Joe Shaver. Wow what crazy fun that must have been
The only"boy band" I will listen to
I think it should be Man band
@@win1837 nope. God band
Ever listened to The traveling Wilburys now that’s one of the only boy bands I’ll listen to
@@simonmeredith2934 yeah. I like them.
To me this song is like red river valley in the sense that a redone version was better than the original. The highwaymens version of this song is better than guy clarks and Michael Martin Murphys red river valley is better than all the rest. In my opinion of course
These four men do not get near the amount of recognition that they deserve. They really should have their own "Mount Rushmore". God bless you, Willie and Kris. And Rest In Peace, Waylon and Johnny - you left us way too soon.
Kayte 0207 Johnny they be back again and again and again and again
Kayte 0207 highwaymen
hind sight is 20/20 we'd all pay a crazy amount to just stop time and be in that front row.....rest in peace Waylon and Johnny
L beck their are never dead in are hearts they carry on with music
yeah, these guys will live forever through their music, sure i'd give a lot to be there but hell listening to it on a computer or phone is a whole lot better then nothing.
I would give anything to go back in time and see them in concert together.
@@PipelineWifey I with my late husband Brian and daughter Suzanne see Johnny cash in the 70s at the nac stadium b,am it were great happy memories x
I remember watching this with my dad in 1993 . Unfortunately my dad is no longer with us but these guys put me at that happy place ❤️
Willie: "I was just a kid, they called me sidekick."
Me: In tears...
My Grandfather passed away 22 years ago now, and I still cry like a baby when I hear this song. I miss you , PawPaw. I promise to wait for the train, til it's my time to go. I love you.
It's the same way with me .
I love this and I'm 32 these 4 men are incredible
I am 15 years old, and even today, 2020, I continue to listen to it.
Respect from holland
That's because their music is timeless young man. I'm almost 74 and I love their music also.
I love country music. The highwaymen are in a class of their own. The harmony between willie johnny waylon and chris is untouchable.😊
I miss my best pal ... Paul James Clayton b.1949 d.2021... I was his Sidekick... by nearly 30yrs..
Proper Desperado Outlaw Shit ! ALWAYS. R.I.P
I think there's a little desperados in all us old men
Aye
This 70 Yr old ( from Ireland) agrees
They were the best. I will listen to their music till I die!
Who still listens in 2024
I've never stopped listening these are the GOAT may 2024!!!!!!!
Man, I would've killed to be at the crowd.
Me too !!!!!!
The Mandolin in this song is just beautiful .
Robby Turner!!
👍🏻 yap 10000000%
Nothing will ever be better than The Highwaymen
I love that this exists.
I was originally planning to get some nice rolling stones songs but when I hit "the" in the search and "the Highwaymen" appeared from a previous search I decided to change my plans
Just did the same in 2020, was listening, reading through the comments thought id give you a bump if you havent listen to it in a while :)
Lucky you!
Same. I was watching Glenn Campbell..3 hours later still watching The Highwaymen 😊😍
They should be on Mount Rushmore
Don't give up hope Bro, sometimes shit happens !!!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are so right!!!!! God bless them!!!!!
This is real country.
One of the best Guy Clark songs - simply one of the best songwriters America has produced.
Don’t forget Kris
I do believe "Desperados ..." was written by Jerry Jeff Walker.
@@michaeloneill1763 written by Clark, first recorded by JJW
@@michaeloneill1763it is a standard written by Clark.
I love the way it sounds when they all sing at the same time
Those four men will always be something to look up to.
Real MEN.
Damn right my friend!
amen
All good songwriters, but they still made this Guy Clark song their own. RIP Guy, you left your mark!
RIP Guy Clark ... the writer of this amazing song.
Waylon's voice is incomparable! Just magnificent.
These 4 dominated the 70s as far as country music goes, and did very well after
I loved the studio version of this song, but watching a live performance of the four of them is even better. I'm almost moved to tears listening to older versions of Kris, Waylon, Willie and Johnny singing about their aged mentor. The lyrics are great, but it's their voices that really make it work.
They’re all great, but Willie’s verse is why this version is unparalleled
But Jesus Johnny’s too! They compliment each other so well
...and Waylon's voice is magnificent!!!!!! Together the four of them created the best version of this song, EVER! RIP Guy Clark, Waylon, John R
Page Ribe Waylon’s baritone is better than Elvis!
Waylon's gets to me the hardest but all amazing
@@pageribe9412 Guy Clarke gives it that edge!
Some of the absolute very best american music out there.
IMO, Kris never got the kudos that his partners did. He wrote so many great songs and his original version of most are the BEST.
shit the hell total sexy... where the are these guys ? the lyrics are legend, the voices, my GOD! I am done with music, THis has ruined me
Great writer, but tbh not the best singer. I saw him last year in Amsterdam.
@@Jordyw1337 well he is getting old. He's a much better singer here and in almost every video I've ever heard him in than Willie and Willie seems to have gotten way more attention.
He's a damn great song writer and he should definitely get the kudos
KK is a genius.
Today's country singers would turn out so much better if they just looked up to country singers like the highwaymen,instead they just go with the same friggin material. (Girls,drinking beer,partying,hunting,fishing,trucks,etc).
Chill Dude ya
Chill Dude rhinestone suits and new flashy cars...I don't think Hank done it that way.
I question if some of these new 'country' musicians have even listened to real country, outlaw country, and legends like these.
The day the last of the Legends we all watched as children dies will be the last of good old country music as we know it. as painful as that is, the next generation will craft their own legends.
Willie, Waylon, Chris and Jonny will go down in history along with a few others. for their hard work and dedication to country music, Just as Elvis did with rock and role, and Ray did with Jazz. there will always be legends whos sound will live for ever.
But each generation will craft their own new styles and follow their own choices.
personally I would love to head up a tribute / cover group. I can sing like the HW-men, but Unfortunately I''m no guitar player. maybe I can just get a backing group ?
I often say cover groups are never a scratch on the originals, especially legends like these guys. But soon its all we will have, Tribute acts and old MP3 copies,
or we could get up to date and listen to modern music, I dont know any. I stopped listening to new stuff when the Spice girls started.
"If you wanna be my" OFF SWITCH !!!!
Part of the problem with the new generation of country singers is its hard to pitcher them facing the same stuff as the old ones. the wild west has tamed allot. if you take the boy named sue song, That would have been delt with in court and daddy would have been paying child care. the empty open planes are now crushed by tourists. listen to the voice over in the last cowboy song. hard to feel that much feeling and depth from some young lad or lass after they tweet about the weather and put a pitcher of their cat on facebook.
their long travels of a few days by horseback are now about 3 hours in the comfort of a new car with air con.
I don't mean to put these new guys down in any way. Just point out that they lead very different lives to their fathers and grandfathers. to point out that the hardships that Willie and co saw growing up will be very different to what our next gen kids are seeing.
one last mention to Dan, I mean Elwood Blues. on one of the "Everybody" recordings he says that soon we will only be able to find good music in the CD collections of old libraries and we should just enjoy it while we still can.
one day all these songs may fade into the darkness of the past. but while I still breath, I will still be playing them.
Doris day
How true, it will also be the day I draw my last breath.
I adore Guy Clark but this is one of the rare versions of one of his songs that I enjoy more than his own.
Vi capita mai che la nostalgia Vi assale e, la dolce calda mano della malinconia, vi accarezza dolcemente le spalle, e un brivido corre per tutta la pelle???? Certi giorni non torneranno mai, mai!!!
This is what you call a SUPERGROUP.
Kris's little fist pump at the end. He knows how well they absolutely nailed this.
In the realm of American popular music, this is holy. Guy Clark wrote it.
They have so much respect for each other.. so nice! Love all of them xxxx ⭐⭐⭐⭐🏴
Sure do miss this group
kristoffer and Johnny truly some of the greatest musicians ever
Waylon too m8
And Willie isn't bad either !!!
All great. Four legends. Glad to see some Kris fans, though. He doesn't get as much credit as the others for some reason.
So sad to see these country music legends pass away
The writer, Guy Clark, just died.
Texas has had a lot of top men.
Yes indeed. Kris, Waylon and Willie are all from Texas. /CD
Cant believe Guy is gone
How can you not like this song by legends?
this song never fails to bring a tear outta me
Love them all but Waylon to me was the coolest country star ever he was just the man.
Derrick Murphy, I totally agree with you!!
Outlaw Shit....
Waylon was and always will be the greatest.
I always knew of them. Now at 35, I'm appreciating it. I'm sorry it took me this long. If nothing else, I'm now a kristofferson fan...it will all live on. It's too good not to be appreciated by anyone who loves well written music with legendary voices.
Kris is highly under rated. An amazing singer and song writer. Check out his version of perhaps the most famous song he's ever written... Me and Bobby McGee (made famous by his friend Janis Joplin )
Country music will survive
Still Lovin and BLASTING the Highwaymen here in 2021. Rest In Peace Waylon Jennings! Rest In Peace Johnny Cash!! KEEPITFUCKINOUTLAWYALL
you don't see this any more four men on stage singing about stuff like this
I think thay are my heroes for ever my. Dad loved listening my son too. They. Were real . Thanks guys
Really wish I could’ve been alive to have gone to this concert 🙃
This should have way more views than it does.. Put this in the recommended section youtube so more people can experience this masterpiece.
Thinking of my dad, pushing 80.
Love you Dad.
Music At the best. Legends of music never die and I'm glad to hear them sing Sheryl Ann Reagan
Thanks gtav for introducing me to these guys
"LORD HAS EVERY WELL I DRILLED RUN DRY"
There was this old man who I used to help on his ranch. He was a teacher for 36 years and did labor in the summers. He was even an actor. I started working with him after my brother committed suicide. I would go over every day and help him with whatever he needed. If he to go somewhere, he took me with him. We went through many of the southern states buying and selling horses and cows. Our lives were like some old western movie. Over the years we became best friends. He was always there to listen and give advice for all my problems. I looked up to him. He passed away in July of this year of leukemia. I got to see him for the last time the day before he died. He was 73. Everytime I hear this song I think of my best friend.
The greatest musical group of all time there’s a lot of talent on this stage
Kris is great love his singing
Wish I could see all of them singing together.....but.! Rest In Peace Jonny and Waylon. .
what a group
what a line up ....
Reminds me of my dad and uncle. Tears😢
great song
Heard this as a boy years ago, and still use this. Great song. Young people need a listen.
Best version of this Guy Clark song by far.
those guys did made america great
They are forever the best.
25 years, and i'm thankful everyday i grew up with real music🙌
26, hopefully you figure out babylon aswell as did i.
Groupe de légende merci pour toute ces belle années
4 legends and 1 stages
Guy Clark, such a gifted soul, his mark left with us... indelible.
RIP Guy Clark, you will be with us when we sing your songs xo
Always, It's all the music for my funeral and one "God is Love" by Marvin Gaye
Good music never dies 😂
Waylon so sweet his voice!...
Yes.
chalice3571, I agree! Isn't it as though Waylon's voice just kept getting better and better as he aged?
Gets better ever time I hear it. All their song by all of them do. Lol even “ cake in the rain”
Respect from Finland.
This song makes me think of my grandpa
I LOOVE the Highwaymen!
This song is special. I never tire of hearing these lyrics. Thanks guys always.
I can’t imagine the chills you’d get in the crowd if u were lucky enough to see this live
This is always how I felt with my Daddy. He used to take me to this bar because they had the best chili in town and he would say with a wink, "Don't tell your Mama". I am so glad I had him in my life. Even taught me how to play forty two.
God Bless Waylon Jennings where ever you are!!!
Had to come here and listen to this one. Keep the tears aside almost. These guys always sound good singing this great song, like it was always meant to be.
It goes with the territory of this song. By the time Cash finishes it out you feel you have lived that tale well.
WOW! This is special! I'm so glad I found it. These 4 guys have given us hundreds of years of great music. It's so sad that we no longer have the entire group with us. Kris & Willie, carry on this legend.
+LaQuita Haynes I still remember the review of this album in Playboy when it came out, it contained the greatest line from an album review ever: "if Mount Rushmore could sing, this is what it would sound like."
Major Frost
Thanks. I'd almost forgotten that review. I remember it now tho.
LaQuita Haynes amen these guys are amazing God bless willow and kris rip Johnny and Waylon
115 years together being on the road. When they first got together '85
How the hell does this have dislikes
It's not Cardi B's "WAP" played on a phone through bluetooth earbuds. Nah, seriously, no clue why.
Why would anyone stop listening to them? There is no reason to stop listening to them, I will listen to them forever and ever, the most beautiful songs ever sung by the most beautiful voices, and the most beautiful person ❤️🦅 Waylon Jennings ❤️🦅
Story time, sorry for the long text but I want to get this off my chest somewhere so here. I never really got to know my granddad. From all that I've heard and the little I did get to meet him, he was a wonderful man but between the fact that he suffered from Alzheimer's, the fact that him and my grandmother were divorced (I've been lucky enough for her to visit with some consistency throughout my life so far), and the fact he lived on a different continent from me, it made getting to know him hard. I still regret not making more steps to get to know him but unfortunately a few years ago he passed away. Although I never grew up knowing my true granddad, I never felt like I was missing one. My dad had a friend who moved to the USA around the same time and by the time I was born, this man was a uncle of mine. He lived about 45 minutes from my house and we would visit him 5-6 times a year, and he would do the same to us. Going into the end of my 6th grade year, I found out that he was suffering from skin cancer and as the school year got closer to finishing, it got worse and worse. Finally, about 3 days before the end of the year, we found out that he had passed away in his sleep. About a year and a half later, my grandfather passed away as well. For the rest of my time in middle school, I felt like I had lost something that could never be brought back. During this time I continued through band and at band camp my freshman year of high school, I had a dream. Normally, I am not one who places much stock in dreams, but the night that I had was the night after what I can confidently say was my worst night of band. I was ready to quit and just go home and pretend like nothing had ever happened. That night though, I had a dream of my uncle and my grandfather and although I cannot remember much from that dream, I woke up knowing that I could not quit. Two nights later, we had a parent performance to show what we had learned and I was terrified I was going to screw something up. Just before preforming, I saw a star in the sky, sitting a little to the right of where I found out later my parents were sitting. At the time I didn't think much of it, but at every competition we had outside that year, there was a star in the same spot. Now, most of me knows that that's just because of how stars work but there is a small part of me that feels that it is my uncle and my granddad, watching down on me. Even at the indoor competitions, there would always be an empty seat or row behind my parents that I would use the same way, that the seats weren't quite empty, just not filled with living folk. Even though they have passed, years ago now, the marks that they have left on me will never quite go away and they will always have a special place in my heart and have inspired me to be the man that I know they saw in me. Again, sorry for the long text, but I needed to get this all out. If you have someone that you are close to, tell them how much they mean and how much you truly care about them because you never know when you won't get that chance again. All love, WeeG
Little extra thing I thought of just now. Earlier this year my father turned 60, the age my uncle was when he passed. At my dads birthday, me, my brother, my dad and some of his friends were sitting around on our porch, just shooting the shit. At some point, one of them made a joke about how old my dad was getting and after a short laugh, my dad says "I just think that I'm the same age as Jim". I can't say I've heard more grown men get completely silent in such a short time. A few seconds later, there's a toast to my uncle and they all start telling stories and laughing about what my uncle would be saying if he was still here. I didn't look to closely, but if I had to bet, I don't think there was a dry eye at the table, myself included. Memories will last far longer then our bodies ever will
if theres a country-heaven,then this song will play there..I hope....
