@@dillonthompson5776 No one is saying George is Merle. They are saying George Sounds like Merle Haggard. Yes so many of us call George the king. He is basically the only True country music singer who has been able to survive the horrible so called rap-country kids now listen to. George’s fans, including the young ones, continue to buy his albums and go to his concerts. George has not even once sung the horrible so called country music. George has remained true to True country music and his fans.
Merle paid tributes to his heros during his life and now people he inspired are doing the same. Thank you George your are a good man and a great singer
You got that right. If you watch closely, he is playing the guitar, just for harmony though. He wants to be sure his band is heard over him, which is something Waylon even would do.
My son would've been 21 when he's daddy passed his sister's were still babies but I tried to raise them the right way ...my SON IS THE CENTER OF MY HEART ❤️ HES NOW 29
You are the King of Country music I love it so much GEORGE God Bless you ❤️ 💖 ♥️ 💗 💕 🙏 ❤️ 💖 ♥️ 💗 💕 🙏 ❤️ 💖 ♥️ 💗 💕 🙏 ❤️ 💖 ♥️ 💗 💕 🙏 ❤️ 💖 ♥️ 💗 💕 🙏 ❤️ 💖 ♥️ 💗
George music is real and truly puts your emotions in touch with the music. he's one of a kind irreplaceable. thanks for your great contribution to country music, You're a real fan
George you give me goosebumps you're the only one I've heard that can sing like Merle Haggard thank you for that beautiful voice you've done a wonderful job with Merle songs
Your family are in part of honoring haggard by giving you that awsome piece of history and ur voice only brings that material being to life ..ur amazing George 👏
He's my friend in heart ❤️ he knows a happy heart and a broken one too ..but he's always gonna be a Great friend ❤️ in my heart & soul I love this man as a person ❤️
He's a really great singer, I love his voice and melodies his lyrics are always on point, he will forever be missed, how long have you been George fan?
He is the best in his songwriting and singing every since I heard his first he’s the one I want to here is guitar is so good right along with his band the best
you better believe he's Texas Proud look what he did for us during Hurricane Harvey raised 40 million dollars for Texas relief who else could do that man is a very proud Texan he mentions it all the time
Oh I love this song from Merle haggard he was really fantastic in person at the Inglewood forum 1998, when I first Alabama was coming to Los Angeles, California, I love the way he sang all his great songs in person, I will never forget about that awesome country music concert
Thank you George for paying tribute to the best singer songwriter that country music has ever seen. I know you were a huge hag fan and it shows when you perform. You learned well and are now left to carry on and take over as the king of country
Merle should have had close to 60 #1 hits....George is good and he deserves what he got, but writing, singing and arranging the music as Merle did is exceptional. Radio didn't play Merle's songs in 80s and 90s and he had some great albums. Hell, his record companies didn't even release some of them! I love both of these guys....two of the best ever!
I think George covered Merle songs back in the 70s. They met while George was stationed in Hawaii in the Army playing in a band. George was stationed at Schofield Barracks and playing at the NCO club, when in between shows he got to meet Merle.
If only George could come to Australia. George dosent realise how much of a hit he is here in Australia. To the king of country Mr George strait, the one and only. He is in a league of hes own and no one could come close.
Brendan, I can truly understand that he is a mega hit over there. I am from South Texas, just 100 miles from where George was raised and I know that Australians are just like us Texans.... if I were to ever travel abroad it would be to Australia. We love the Aussies here in Texas!!!
George music is truly the language of the soul and heart. this musical genre is real music that touches the spirit in the real sense of the world 🌍 You're a real fan
He asked me to dance once in early 80's, he wasn't quite the star, but was on the horizon...I had no clue who he was, the reason I said "no" to his request is because he was 4 inches shorter than me(i'm over 6 foot tall).... he was very polite and tipped his hat to me. Several girls came running over to me and said I was crazy for saying no! LOL
Ur awesome my dear 😘 ❤ you make me smile ...sending love and angels to look over ❤ ur precious family..I love you 😍 your my favorite ❤ always will be .
My grandfather was a worken man ( COAL MINNER PIKESVILLE KENTUCKY).9 KIDS AND LUCILLE WAS HIS WIFE ..MY GRANDFATHER WAS A MEMBER AND VOCALIST FOR THE KENTUCKY RAMBLERS ❤
Jason Smith Rick McCrae probably. One of my guitar heroes for his professionalism and loyalty to George. He is also a great guitar player regardless of genre.
I did a tribute to George Strait and I did The Cowboy Rides Away and I felt the same way when I saw him at the Scottrade center in 2012 and when he did it at his final show during His final tour and of the same name The Cowboy Rides Away Tour
All you guys who keep towing the line and keep real country music alive deserve a memorial; I can't imagine a better tribute to Merle, and George does a great Tom Petty and even a great Brooks & Dunn.
David, have you heard the new Alan Jackson Album? It's so good and so along the lines of how Merle wrote.....Alan even closes the album with "That's the Way Love Goes" in tribute to Merle. Check it out if you can! YOu are right, those guys who are keeping it alive(like Merle did) deserve a Memorial!

Plus Double Respect to Mr George Strait. God Bless him. 6/19/21. DDD
Can't beat King George and the Hag. Great tribute to Merle Haggard. R.I.P. Hag
You got that right. If you watch closely, he is playing the guitar, just for harmony though. He wants to be sure his band is heard over him, which is something Waylon even would do.
Damn--close your eyes and you can almost hear Haggard in his voice.
60+. No longer have anything to prove. Still he gives 110% every time he takes the stage. How can you not respect an artist like this.
EVERYONE LOVES GEORGE STRAIT, NO MATTER WHAT HE SINGS IT IS A HIT TO ME... AND EVERYONE ELSE.... LOVE THAT MAN..
A living legend!
Well he gets millions from it too
Sonia Currie I like George Jones better
I mean he's just standing there playing simple chords.
My son would've been 21 when he's daddy passed his sister's were still babies but I tried to raise them the right way ...my SON IS THE CENTER OF MY HEART ❤️ HES NOW 29
He just killed it!!!!! Merle would have been so proud. I smiled from ear-to-ear listening to him perform these two songs. ❤ Bless you George Strait.
I hope I can got to a concert of your and see they amazing couple singing together on stage that would be. A blessing
Happy Valentine lovesong🤠🥰😍🤩😘

George is the greatest man of king country music 🎶 🎵
Hello 👋 I totally agree with you 💯
Proud of my son gave him morals and values..hes awsome and loves his full house 🏠 😍 ❤
It’s crazy to think that someone like King George, who is a hero to so many, has heroes of his own. I think that gets forgotten. RIP Merle!
George you give me goosebumps you're the only one I've heard that can sing like Merle Haggard thank you for that beautiful voice you've done a wonderful job with Merle songs
Check out Joe Nichols…he did ‘Merle Mondays’ during the shutdown in 2020. His father was a huge Haggard fan. George looks to be trying a bit too hard.
He can sing anything and it is great! He just nailed this song! Love everything he sings!❤❤❤
Your family are in part of honoring haggard by giving you that awsome piece of history and ur voice only brings that material being to life ..ur amazing George 👏

*Strait

Love you George Strait ❤❤❤
What an amazing rendition. I love that he just sang the song the way we all know it...not trying to make it his own. You go George!

A great tribute to the Hag!!!!!
Alessia La Franca ,
What a fantastic tribute to Merle by George🎶💯
I was at this concert with floor sitting. Man he was hot as ever. I am his biggest fan 28 concerts in total!!
The older he gets the hotter he gets!
@@suewalsh1883 Sue Walsh: I agree about his hotness. That's my name for him--His Hotness! I sure am jealous of you, but glad for your opportunities!
Been listening to George Strait since early 80’s.....and everyone in between......awesome........Cowboys for life....! 👍🤠
He asked me to dance once in early 80's, he wasn't quite the star, but was on the horizon...I had no clue who he was, the reason I said "no" to his request is because he was 4 inches shorter than me(i'm over 6 foot tall).... he was very polite and tipped his hat to me.

You make me smile 😃 keep up reeling me into you ..ur #1

Wow He Ain't Merle But He's GOOD. MISS& LOVE
Mr Merle Haggard.
Seeing George Strait with a Fender Telecaster is a good look
Lee Darin Jr but it is strange because all I've ever seen him with is an acoustic
Not sure if it’s even plugged in. Someone’s off to the side rippin lol
Jason Smith Rick McCrae probably. One of my guitar heroes for his professionalism and loyalty to George. He is also a great guitar player regardless of genre.
Love this song good work george
King of Country. No one has topped him since. No one ever will.
Dang this man can sing anything and make it sound awesome.
tkanks you George for tribute a my Hero Merle
No

I did a tribute to George Strait and I did The Cowboy Rides Away and I felt the same way when I saw him at the Scottrade center in 2012 and when he did it at his final show during His final tour and of the same name The Cowboy Rides Away Tour
Very few legends left what a heart break.
Sweet. Great job george. Merle is smiling down on you. Ty george .
