I played this song for my wife as she was dying from Alizheimers thru my phone..i put it by her ear..we were married 61yrs..she died 2days after our anniversery..i miss her
This is a wonderful song to remember your spouse! I’m sorry for your loneliness~ we were made to be a pair~ not alone.My husband passed in his sleep beside me~ we had 14.5yrs together~ I still miss him
My son passed away suddenly in his sleep three months ago, just two months before his 17th birthday. He was and always will be on my mind. This song has me in tatters remembering the two of us singing this song together while driving him to school when he was a little younger. Beautiful song, beautiful memories. I love you Andrew, wish we had more time...❤
My Mom unexpectedly passed in 2023. It was well before her time. My Dad wasn't a real romantic man and I think he regrets that, but Mom knew he loved her and she never doubted that. At my Mom's funeral, before they closed her casket for the final time, my Dad asked me and my brother to stay behind with him for a minute. Dad had the funeral home play this song overhead. My Daddy sung this entire song to my Momma. The pain and tears in his eyes were palpable and something I will never forget. Thanks Willie for this song 🎶 . Your song was my Dad's last gift to my Mom and it meant so much to him to be able to express every regret and painful emotion he felt wrapped up in one song. That entire day was a blur for me; however, standing over my mom's casket, seeing her for the last time, me holding my dad's hand while listening to him sing this final song to the love of his life, of 49 years, is one moment that'll be etched in my heart and soul until my last breath..... That horrible and gut wrenching day, my Dad showed me the true meaning of unconditional love in life and in death ❤ I miss you Momma and I hope you are flying high with the angels 🌌. Rest easy for your work on earth is done 💜
My wife and I went to Hawaii years ago and happened to notice a flyer tacked to the wall at the Concierge's desk about Willie Nelson. When I asked, he told me it to was support local talent, and was a last minute notice. It cost about 10 dollars, and featured several groups, some with and some wirthout much talent. BUT, then Willie came on with his crew and blew the the place apart. Folding chairs on the grass, maybe fifty feet from the man himself, for 10 bucks in Hawaii!!!!!!! Beat that!!!
My dad died just over a year ago. This song, and Willie Nelson, were two of his faves. I've been hearing repeated reminders recently, to play this song. I know it's him, still loving me from the other side. As someone else here said, love never dies.
oh my goodness 😢😢❤❤❤ this is my most favorite song. Ummmm yes I have Loved this song since I was in high school.I think it is so beautiful and loving words. Touches my heart each time..
My husband sent me this video 2 weeks before he passed unexpectedly. We were married for 54 years. This song is him to a tee he was not openly affectionate but I loved him dearly. I cry uncontrollably when I hear this it is so beautiful.
Thank you so very very much❣️❣️This is what this awfully messed up world needs more of that’s for sure💝 I wish you all the best in life also and nothing but immensely high vibrations💞💗💞
There are only a handful of songs in history that you never get tired of. This is one of them. Happy birthday Willie in 2024 still rocking 😎 I loved Elvis' version also !
oh my goodness 😢😢❤❤❤ this is my most favorite song. Ummmm yes I have Loved this song since I was in high school.I think it is so beautiful and loving words. Touches my heart each time...
My mom dedicated this song to me after I left for the service in 2004. We had our struggles as we found our way through my childhood. She is in heaven now watching over me, and it’s my turn to dedicate this song to her.
My husband and I had some very rough times in our marriage. About 20 years ago he said this song is for me from him. He said he was sorry for all the hard times. He passed away 3 years ago and we had always loved one another. We were married 3 weeks shy of 50 years. I listen to this now and weep. I miss him so much and I am thankful that he used this song to help heal my heart and to show his love for me.
Hello Carol , Good afternoon. His songs are amazing and heart touching for real. Love it❤. So Sorry about your husband, I believe he’s resting peacefully in heaven.
Hello Carol sorry about your loss I love this song and lost my love of 50 years I was never into country music being a old rock and roller but I love this song as it was one of her favorites ❤God bless you and keep on keeping on
@@barbaracurtis4506 Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can makes you feel better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello makes you smile
I play this for my wife of 64 years who passed away in February, the love of my life, I will love her forever. it gets stronger all the time. xxx on my own each evening, thoughts are only of you. Xxxx
My brother died today, a Harley accident. Out of the blue I was guided to this song. I will share it with his first wife. He was the first love of her life. I miss him
I'm sorry about your brother. I know how it feels but at least you were there and for me, my brother passed away in the States some years ago. I couldn't attend his funeral cause I didn't have the visa and it would take too long. I miss him even more than now when I hear this song!
I lost my husband from a 3 year stroke and that was his song to me and we were married in 1982. He looked and could sing like Willie and the day hospice took him away, ask him to sing this one last time. He could barely speak but he sang, YOU WERE ALWAYS ON MY MIND. I am constantly playing this song and I feel him with me! Thank you WILLIE NELSON
I lost my husband 8 years ago and this song means everything to my husband was very sick and in his last days he said i will always be on his mind and as well he to this day is on my mind i love and miss you robert
Lorelei, I always thought I had lost my mind because I have precognitions, or some such foresight things. I see things before they happen. The most odd of these images I have seen, and that always come to be, was not dissimilar to a reincarnation type of thing. I want you to understand. What has occurred will occur again and again to infinity. The so called "big bang" theory is just that, a theory. A misunderstood way of explaining our existence. It is pure bunk. It is hard to understand the time that is involved in these cycles because our minds cannot conceive such spans of time. You will repeat the sad situation of eight years ago. I am sorry to tell you that, but you are going to do what you have done again and again. It just takes time. You cannot change any of it. Look at the face of a clock. Round and round. Do not believe me if it seems crazy to you but you are going to see him exactly as you did before. In the same place and yes, the same time. It is okay. It is the reality of this thing we call existence. Big Wigs think they can monkey with numbers and explain how and why things occur or come to exist. They are wrong. If it is, it was, and will be. Yes, you will always be on his mind. It is as though he went to the restroom during intermission. I want to comfort you. I have lost many loved ones. I do not want to repeat that pain but there is no alternative. So I will do it again gladly and sadly as I have over and over. The comforting part is that we cannot remember these "Intermissions". I have no idea whatsoever why this is. Can I add a 13 or a zero to that clock face. Probably not. Willy wrote a beautiful song I wonder if he would believe that he has written it many times before as he will many times again and again. The future is ours to be.
My son turns 14 this year. Tears rolling my eyes, this song resonates with me in a level like no other song. I only have him every 1st / 3rd / 5th weekend and it’s like he’s growing quicker by the minute. Man, Isaiah you’re always on my mind buddy. I love you
Prayers brother my son hasnt saw his daughters in eight years but must pay that child support government does not know what their doing to the cildren and the fathers my heart goes out to you
As a father I've been through something similar in my son's earlier years. It's heartbreaking that there is an active participating father who's willing and able to be a part of a child's life and yet there are restrictions. I would never put those types of things on my child. The court system weaponizes children and that really sucks. I hope you don't give up or lose sight of the important things. Will pray for you.
Lost my wife of 20 years on 1/5/24 to a mild flu of all things, she was 52. She loved country music and I was rock and roll. Any time this song came on she'd want to dance to it. Can't count the number of times we danced around the kitchen to this. The song hits so much deeper now. Miss ya Grumps.
I lost my husband this year on September 1st and today is our wedding anniversary. It's a really tender day for me, but I wouldn't be the person I am without him. Rest in peace honey ❤️💜 I'll never forget you
I pray that the good Lord brings comfort, peace and joy to your heart so that you will be able to get through the difficult times by recalling the love you shared with your husband over the years. You sound like an incredible person so I know your soul longs to feel that closeness. You are very strong and fortunate to have found/ experienced a love like this. Some people search the world and never find a love like this in their lifetime 🤗
You are my wife, and even now, I wonder what I ever did to deserve you! You gave me the love I never knew I would find. You understood me when no one else did. You took care of me on my vulnerable days. You are everything I could ever ask for, baby; and I love you with my whole heart.
I never really listened to this song until my wife passed away. No matter where I was, what I was doing, she really was on my mind. I miss her so much.
Sorry for your loss man. 😢 I couldn't imagine losing my wife. I hope I go first. Stay strong and surround yourself with loved ones. Remember the good times and be thankful for the moments you had with her. ✌
My beloved wife died recently after 64 years of happy marriage. God Bless you Willie Nelson for being there with us on the day of her funeral and the words "Tell me that your sweet love never dies" will stay with me forever.
Played at my dad's funeral, can't listen to this without crying my eyes out. Miss you pop's. You grand babies now have babies, there all doing good. Rest in peace Thurston Lee People's.
Leaves me speechless and in tears every time. Such a beautiful song with the lyrics reflecting a man being honest and vulnerable. This is my favorite Willie song. Thanks Willie!
I'm not happy, I'm not sad. Yes, I enjoy the music as an art form. Not all of us got a response to get those feelings. Oh well back to listening to all versions of this good sounding song.
He's unbelievable. He's 91 and still performing and recording, as if it was 1970. He managed to avoid any jail time for income tax charge probably because of his demeanor. He loves anybody and everybody.
Avoided jail time for the same if not worse things that many politicians do🤣😂he was just able to get a better lawyer 🤭🦋✌️great performer though 💗Willie songs 4 ever!
I'm so excited. I FINALLY get to take my 77 year old dad to see Willie play in concert in a few weeks. My pops and I have seen soo many concerts together but we never had been able to see Willie. He is 89 now and I am blown away that we even get this opportunity.
My grandfather just passed away this morning. 💔 He loved Willie, I'll never forget my grandpa taking his guitar out. He kept a red bandana around it and he'd play some of Willie's licks. He cried one time and told me how much he loved my grandma and this was the song he sang. 🖤❤️💙💛
My husband of 53 years was a true Willy fan. He ran a karaoke gig for years and he could sing Willy to a tee❤ Think of this song often when I think of you dear!!
Dedicated to my parents, this was their lullaby whenever they want us to go on afternoon nap when my siblings and I were young. We were on a huge rattan hammock that can accommodate 5 kids with Dad or with Mom. I love you dear beloved parents in heaven, we miss you even if am now 60 yrs old. Thank you for rearing us so well.
My brother-in-law died one week ago today. His devoted wife, my sister, spent the last 3 years caring for him. They lived in Austin, loved Willie. Because of Covid-19 we can't even have a funeral for him. Next year when we can celebrate his life, I will have this song played for my sister.
I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS AND PRAYER'S FOR THE FAMILY'S THIS HITS HOME I LOST MY OLDER SISTER 5 MONTHS AGO THE LAST OF THREE SIBLINGS AND MY PARENTS BEFORE THAT THE PAIN AND GRIEF WILL NEVER GO AWAY TO KNOW I AM ALL ALONE NOW THANKS FOR LETTING ME VENT ...!!!
Everytime I here this song I stop whatever I'm doing. This is a masterly sung song. Willie Nelson owns this piece. I'm a black jazz singer and I'm determined to come as close to the emotional delivery Mr. Nelson has set. This borders on brilliance!!!
Lost my husband, Steve, two years ago. He looked so much like Willie, he was often approached and ask if he was Willie. He is always on my mind and I love this song!
This could possibly be the greatest song ever written. No song makes me feel so sad and so happy at the same time. It's it possible to smile and cry at the same time. It just reminds me of all those loved ones that I've lost and loved but never said the right things to them at the time. Endless beauty
Everyone has that one song that just rips them to pieces when they hear it. I can make it through the first verse without tears. One of the most beautiful songs ever written!
If you've ever truly loved, truly truly loved someone and lost them or let the love slip away, this song will resonate forever inside you once you've heard
Extraordinary how this particular song strikes so deeply in listeners! I doubt if anyone who hears it does not feel moved and personally involved. No matter how it is covered,every version seems to strike a vulnerable chord somewhere. Every way it is sung it has its emotional effect somewhere.
My husband passed away January 14, 2021 he will be buried 2/12 and I picked this to play at his funeral because it explains what my emotions are. Tells just what I feel. Love you babe forever.
My husband died 8 years ago on Feb 12th. He would always play this song. I'm very sorry for your loss. You never get over their loss, it just gets a little easier to cope.
My husband JK passed away on May 21, 2021 and I played this song at his funeral becos this is exactly how I felt after we hv been together for 53 years. Miss him always.
Willie is not only a musical legend. He also has that intangible, soothing quality of connecting with his audience, without being showy and flamboyant. This man is one of a kind.
Hello Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️ Please send me a mail via.willienelsonmusic23@gmail.com
The perfect voice. No operatic inflection. No elaborate tricks, just the perfect notes everytime. I think Willie was one of the top vocalist of the last 70 years.
This is the song for my mom from my dad! They both are in heaven now and I know they are together and they love each other and me. Thank you Mr. Nelson for being apart of their lives together and mine growing up! So much love
Willie Nelson still reckons that Always on My Mind was the best song Elvis ever crooned. 'People are always telling me how well I sing Always on My Mind', declared Willie. 'But the plain truth is, it was always meant for Elvis. I only sang it myself as an afterthought and now I'm not allowed off a stage without performing it.
His phrasing is absolutely masterful, all the inflections in his singing, the little elaborations. He’s an absolute master at singing and he brings his voice right out of his heart.
I had a daughter who died at 4 months old, having never made it home from the hospital and I didn't get to spend nearly as much time with her as I wish I had during her short life. These lyrics don't really make a lot of sense in that context but this song always makes me think of her and never fails to get the tears flowing. Love you Sam. xo
+ChooseReason It doesn't matter if it makes much sense in that particular context. What really matters is that you found something that touches that feeling deep down inside and helps to soothe your heart and soul.
16 years USMC . I lost one marine to a car accident . He’s always on my mind. I never talked to his parents . Been 34 years . To scared to say sorry for their loss. Always on my mind … I’ve a lot to answer to St Peter . He’s always on my mind .
Your dad ask me to tell you “hey kiddo, I miss you to. Don’t be hard on yourself, I’m proud of the man you’ve turned out to be. I still check in on you all the time. We will see one another someday. Enjoy your life,son, I love you”
It's fascinating how his voice seems to be the dominant instrument - perfectly capturing the subtleties of the lyrics. The rest of the band providing a soothing backdrop.
Yes, it's pretty amazing he captures one's soul with his voice, it makes you feel as if he's singing about your life. I'm very young but still, I feel it.
He was definitely the chosen 1 for this song. As a kid growing up, I always loved all of his songs. But, nobody will ever match or better Willie's version of this one. I've always believed that the best person to sing this on a tribute album would be his son. Lukas Nelson. He's the one who has the closest voice to his Dad's. I'd love to hear Lukas record his version of this song.
That's what I've always thought loved so much about Willie's music. His band/recording artists, no matter what song or era are always superb, but they never take away from Willie's unique voice and interpretation, yet he never seems to try to be the "star". Forget autotunes and screaming amplifiers and synthesizers, they don't need it, and we get to enjoy the results.
This song is such an incredible fit for Willie. His phrasing and voice is art in its purest form. He plays guitar like he sings. So unique. I adore him and his musical talent.
@@margaretmolloy257 Ok nice place that's good to know. Me am from Dallas Texas. So how is your day going with you over there now and how's the weather over there now if i may ask..?
You have classics and then there's golden classics . Willy Nelson is one of the Golden Classics . These are the ones that will still be here to the end of time .
This is Willie Nelson at one of his finest moments. Which one of our wives or girlfriends would not want to have these beautiful words sung to her. I’m a musician and I’m going to play this song for my fiancée on our wedding day.
@@AA-op3kjHe's admitting that their future life might get busy and even if he forgets to tell her, he still loves her. That's a nice sentiment. We all forget to say and do the right thing at some point.
Thank you for your comments and love towards me❤️ this is my personal TH-cam page and my official page is managed by my manager and i open this page to do my fans survey and it really funny when people think I can’t chat with my fans and normal people in the society they got it wrong because they haven’t know my humble life style, thank you for your support and for being a great fan of me ❤️.... How long have you been my fan?
This song is like a knife into my heart. The words say exactly what happened to me, I was blind and could not see or say how much I loved her. She is gone for quite some time, but the pain is still here.
We all do dumb things that will always haunt us..but when we come to the place where we forgive ourselves..that’s the best gift we can give ourselves..yes the hurt may very well always be there..but dealing after forgiveness becomes easier..🇨🇦
Such a truly beautiful and timeless song. Willie's version has always been my favorite. Rest in Peace, Mark James. And thank you for all your beautiful songwriting, you made the world a better place.
My grampa just passed away this morning and all I can remember is how he would whistle this whole song like a song bird. Makes me remember you and how much I loved you.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I pray that you will be at peace and that all the wonderful memories you have of him will always comfort you. God bless you, and may your grandpa Rest In Peace.
Thanks fans for your likes and comment and thanks for always liking my music and the grate work have been doing so far. I really appreciate your love and support. I LOVE 🌹😘❤️ YOU ALL. You can message my email if you don't mind. here is my email : willienelson692@gmail.com
Tomorrow I lay my father to rest, this was a favorite of his he will forever always be on my mind and in my heart. Love you daddy so much miss you already.
@Donna is right.... talk to your ex. Even if not to get back together but tell her what you wrote here. I was thinking about a former BF and then Googled him only to find his obituary. We'd both moved on years ago but i wanted to tell him that all these years later i think of him. My thoughts weren't romantic but they were love.... the kind of love that wants only the best for someone.
Spot on. Willie Nelson has a voice that entwines lyrics and grasps the story of the song. He's unique in so many ways. Another American vocal treasure.
Cherish your loved ones while they are here- and dont feel bad for longing for the day to reunite with them- its in our DNA to love deeply. Just remember, its always better to have loved and "lost", than to have never loved at all.
This man is one of the coolest people I was lucky enough to meet him so many years ago. He was just as humble and pleasant as they come. I think it was in 81 my mom had tickets and her date stood her up and I went with her and really enjoyed myself. I was 15 or 16 at the time it's one of my favorite moments with my mom.
I"ve lost my only child, Dec. 10, 2014, of kidney failure, she"s on dialysis for almost nine years, she's always on my mind , the pain of losing her, I carry in my heart.
My partner of 46 years died 4 months ago yesterday at 7.45pm listening to this song which had been our favourite for a long time, I can't listen to it without crying, so don't you go and die on my too Willie because I couldn't stand it.
Dude - I am so sorry for your loss Your story has tears in my eyes too - be strong, God is obviously not done with you yet... For me, it's thoughts of my dad (who passed in 2008) that usually get me like this....
They played this at my grandfather’s funeral. It was the first time I heard the song. It’s been 12 years now and this song still makes me feel like it was then. I really can’t handle death well but I know there will be lots of it as I get older. It just hurts seeing the world slip away
That was a moving comment. Here is a link to an Italian song I like, sung by Enrico Ruggeri which you might like. He is singing of the people he remembers from Christmases past, the priest, the aunt who never married-the people he loved and whom he will never see again. I hope you like it th-cam.com/video/5ouqhlh1c7w/w-d-xo.html Best wishes.

Sorry for your loss.....
Sorry for your lost
Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss, Robert. But I'm certain that you wife knew (deep down) how much you loved her.
This is a wonderful song to remember your spouse! I’m sorry for your loneliness~ we were made to be a pair~ not alone.My husband passed in his sleep beside me~ we had 14.5yrs together~ I still miss him

As a 70 yr old Black Native Austinite, I have always enjoyed Willie's ''uniquely cool and comforting voice''....he's a Texas Treasure!
Willie has the quintessiantial central Texas accent.
Absolutely American classic 💗Willie
He is a great man with a unique voice.
Ele é um tesouro,internacional.
Good onya!

Beautiful.

My husband died on last Friday. This was our song. From the time we met until forever
😢 Stay strong 🙏❤
Oh, dear... Don't you worry, I know that he'd knew how much you loved him. Stay strong and never give up, please.
🌺❤️
May he rest in peace... =( STAY STRONG

My wife and I went to Hawaii years ago and happened to notice a flyer tacked to the wall at the Concierge's desk about Willie Nelson. When I asked, he told me it to was support local talent, and was a last minute notice. It cost about 10 dollars, and featured several groups, some with and some wirthout much talent. BUT, then Willie came on with his crew and blew the the place apart. Folding chairs on the grass, maybe fifty feet from the man himself, for 10 bucks in Hawaii!!!!!!! Beat that!!!
What was the date, if you don't mind me asking?
I had to ask my wife because I couldn't remember. It was in 2004 in Maui.@@dizrh4632
Uau! Momentos inesquecíveis.
2004@@dizrh4632
what year was it?
My dad died just over a year ago. This song, and Willie Nelson, were two of his faves. I've been hearing repeated reminders recently, to play this song. I know it's him, still loving me from the other side. As someone else here said, love never dies.
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can makes you feel better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello makes you smile
Hi
Hello @findingjoy4725,
How're you doing?
Thanks for being a fan.
It's nice meeting you here..
oh my goodness 😢😢❤❤❤ this is my most favorite song. Ummmm yes I have Loved this song since I was in high school.I think it is so beautiful and loving words.
Touches my heart each time..
I played this for my wife 15 minutes before she passed. Now I can not listen to the song without crying. It is the best version of the song.
Stay strong buddy. Cherish her memories and keep on keeping on.
She knows. It's a happy song because you shared. My condolences 🙏 😢
No shame in crying my friend: it's catharsis and will help you. Not to cry in such circumstances would not be normal.
Rest in peace to her I am sorry for your loss
May her memory be a blessing
My husband sent me this video 2 weeks before he passed unexpectedly. We were married for 54 years. This song is him to a tee he was not openly affectionate but I loved him dearly. I cry uncontrollably when I hear this it is so beautiful.
YOU HAVE DESCRIBE MY HUSBAND WHO ALSO PASS
Sorry for your loss.
Well thx push me show more
Ich kann Dich verstehen, mein herzliches Beileid. Ich bin kein Dichter, deshalb nur diese spröden Worte.
God bless, God bless...I'm sorry my lady!!! 1:11
Everyone who reads this, we don't know each other and probably never will but I wish you all the best in life and all the luck in the world 💖
Thank you so very very much❣️❣️This is what this awfully messed up world needs more of that’s for sure💝 I wish you all the best in life also and nothing but immensely high vibrations💞💗💞
Wishing you the same.......
Thank you so much really need that right now
Just got here ☺so sending you much love & light right back! 💃
And the same for you ! Cheers ❤
There are only a handful of songs in history that you never get tired of. This is one of them. Happy birthday Willie in 2024 still rocking 😎 I loved Elvis' version also !
Elvis did the full 'Power Ballad with Orchestra' version and he shades Willies! 👍
oh my goodness 😢😢❤❤❤ this is my most favorite song. Ummmm yes I have Loved this song since I was in high school.I think it is so beautiful and loving words.
Touches my heart each time...
And there is a very different version from the Pet Shop Boys. I love that too.
@ oh good to hear that from you
@ so where are you from?
Doesn't matter who covers this song, there will never be a version with more heart, genuineness & sincerity than Willies version.
So, so true...the incomparable Willie...long may he reign....Love him.
Wushu Willie
Agreed. Nobody conveys a lyric with as much meaning and sincerity as Willie. He makes it sound so easy and effortless. Genius.
Gerogina Chipperfield.. wushu?
Beautiful version but no one sings it better than The King, Elvis - in my opinion! ;)
My mom dedicated this song to me after I left for the service in 2004. We had our struggles as we found our way through my childhood. She is in heaven now watching over me, and it’s my turn to dedicate this song to her.
She loved you :)
❤️
Wow.. You have me chills!! May she REST IN PEACE!! AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AND MY FREEDOM!!✌️💪
Beautiful memories of your Mom. Very sorry for your loss. Thank you for your service ☝🏻🙏🏻
So very sorry for your loss! Thank you for your service!
My husband and I had some very rough times in our marriage. About 20 years ago he said this song is for me from him. He said he was sorry for all the hard times. He passed away 3 years ago and we had always loved one another. We were married 3 weeks shy of 50 years. I listen to this now and weep. I miss him so much and I am thankful that he used this song to help heal my heart and to show his love for me.
Hello Carol , Good afternoon. His songs are amazing and heart touching for real. Love it❤. So Sorry about your husband, I believe he’s resting peacefully in heaven.

I play this for my wife of 64 years who passed away in February, the love of my life, I will love her forever. it gets stronger all the time. xxx on my own each evening, thoughts are only of you. Xxxx
Sorry for your lost Mr.Michael..

My brother died today, a Harley accident. Out of the blue I was guided to this song. I will share it with his first wife. He was the first love of her life. I miss him
I'm so sorry
I'm sorry for your loss, Rest in Peace to your brother
Always remember the good times. he will always be on your mind.
Im so sorry for your loss....ill be praying for u and your family....God bless you all...
I'm sorry about your brother. I know how it feels but at least you were there and for me, my brother passed away in the States some years ago. I couldn't attend his funeral cause I didn't have the visa and it would take too long. I miss him even more than now when I hear this song!
The older I get the more meaning these songs have.
Indeed!

yup, when you're a kid it's just some sappy cliche but when you have enough life experience you learn that every silly love song is true!
Same with me
Les Andrews i like to meet Willie i lifted in Hubbard Texas i am 84 years old i seen him in West in 1950.
I lost my husband from a 3 year stroke and that was his song to me and we were married in 1982. He looked and could sing like Willie and the day hospice took him away, ask him to sing this one last time. He could barely speak but he sang, YOU WERE ALWAYS ON MY MIND. I am constantly playing this song and I feel him with me! Thank you WILLIE NELSON
Beautifully said.
One of the most moving songs I ever heard.
It certainly is!!😮
Ich wünsche Dir viel Kraft und Trost in dem Gedanken an deinen Mann. Irgendwann sehen wir uns alle wieder. ❤
Beautiful ❤️
I lost my husband 8 years ago and this song means everything to my husband was very sick and in his last days he said i will always be on his mind and as well he to this day is on my mind i love and miss you robert
Lorelei,
I always thought I had lost my mind because I have precognitions, or some such foresight things. I see things before they happen. The most odd of these images I have seen, and that always come to be, was not dissimilar to a reincarnation type of thing. I want you to understand. What has occurred will occur again and again to infinity. The so called "big bang" theory is just that, a theory. A misunderstood way of explaining our existence. It is pure bunk. It is hard to understand the time that is involved in these cycles because our minds cannot conceive such spans of time. You will repeat the sad situation of eight years ago. I am sorry to tell you that, but you are going to do what you have done again and again. It just takes time. You cannot change any of it. Look at the face of a clock. Round and round. Do not believe me if it seems crazy to you but you are going to see him exactly as you did before. In the same place and yes, the same time. It is okay. It is the reality of this thing we call existence. Big Wigs think they can monkey with numbers and explain how and why things occur or come to exist. They are wrong. If it is, it was, and will be. Yes, you will always be on his mind. It is as though he went to the restroom during intermission. I want to comfort you. I have lost many loved ones. I do not want to repeat that pain but there is no alternative. So I will do it again gladly and sadly as I have over and over. The comforting part is that we cannot remember
these "Intermissions". I have no idea whatsoever why this is. Can I add a 13 or a zero to that clock face. Probably not. Willy wrote a beautiful song I wonder if he would believe that he has written it many times before as he will many times again and again. The future is ours to be.
Lorelei Foster so sweet.

Are u a woman?
My son turns 14 this year. Tears rolling my eyes, this song resonates with me in a level like no other song. I only have him every 1st / 3rd / 5th weekend and it’s like he’s growing quicker by the minute. Man, Isaiah you’re always on my mind buddy. I love you
Prayers brother my son hasnt saw his daughters in eight years but must pay that child support government does not know what their doing to the cildren and the fathers my heart goes out to you
As a father I've been through something similar in my son's earlier years. It's heartbreaking that there is an active participating father who's willing and able to be a part of a child's life and yet there are restrictions. I would never put those types of things on my child. The court system weaponizes children and that really sucks. I hope you don't give up or lose sight of the important things. Will pray for you.
Love this song. It is heart felt and really hits you deep in your ❤ heart
I’ll pray for you that you see more of him buddy
You are a loving father
Lost my wife of 20 years on 1/5/24 to a mild flu of all things, she was 52. She loved country music and I was rock and roll. Any time this song came on she'd want to dance to it. Can't count the number of times we danced around the kitchen to this. The song hits so much deeper now. Miss ya Grumps.
I have to say it does get better… however you never really cope, just accept what’s left of you….
I lost my husband this year on September 1st and today is our wedding anniversary. It's a really tender day for me, but I wouldn't be the person I am without him. Rest in peace honey ❤️💜 I'll never forget you
♥️♥️♥️
💛💛
🤗
I pray that the good Lord brings comfort, peace and joy to your heart so that you will be able to get through the difficult times by recalling the love you shared with your husband over the years. You sound like an incredible person so I know your soul longs to feel that closeness. You are very strong and fortunate to have found/ experienced a love like this. Some people search the world and never find a love like this in their lifetime 🤗
Hugs ❤❤😢
For that someone who doesn’t know how much they are treasured!😢
You are my wife, and even now, I wonder what I ever did to deserve you! You gave me the love I never knew I would find. You understood me when no one else did. You took care of me on my vulnerable days. You are everything I could ever ask for, baby; and I love you with my whole heart.
Hello Marilyn, that’s so sweet and beautiful to hear from you
Is this your favorite song ??

Makes me cry every time I hear it. Was featured on American idol tonight by a contestant . Made Katie Perry cry.

When you’re happy you enjoy the music; when you’re heartbroken you understand the lyrics.
Yep
Truer words were never spoken.
I'm not happy, I'm not sad. Yes, I enjoy the music as an art form. Not all of us got a response to get those feelings. Oh well back to listening to all versions of this good sounding song.
I liked that u listen to the lyrics when you're heart broken the music when your happy could have not said it better md
Wow best way ever to sum up this classic 👌 👏
He's unbelievable. He's 91 and still performing and recording, as if it was 1970.
He managed to avoid any jail time for income tax charge probably because of his demeanor. He loves anybody and everybody.

Elvis was a child predator so nah
I'm so excited. I FINALLY get to take my 77 year old dad to see Willie play in concert in a few weeks. My pops and I have seen soo many concerts together but we never had been able to see Willie. He is 89 now and I am blown away that we even get this opportunity.
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can makes you feel better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello makes you smile
My grandfather just passed away this morning. 💔 He loved Willie, I'll never forget my grandpa taking his guitar out. He kept a red bandana around it and he'd play some of Willie's licks. He cried one time and told me how much he loved my grandma and this was the song he sang. 🖤❤️💙💛

My husband of 53 years was a true Willy fan.
He ran a karaoke gig for years and he could sing Willy to a tee❤ Think of this song often when I think of you dear!!
I love that Willie's voice isn't auto-tuned and what-not. His voice is so honest, simple, it almost bothers me.
yes, it is honest and simple,,,
gives me peace,,,,,

Hi Sue
Listening to my client who’s dying at the moment from dementia with his dear wife of 57 years!!!!
Listening to this cherishing song. Everyone be well.
My wife died 8 years ago after 58 years of marriage and this was “our” song, I still tear up when listening to it.
My dad died around 15 years ago and my mom is always showing me “their songs” so I get it ❤ Hope you’re doing okay
Meus sentimentos…
My brother-in-law died one week ago today. His devoted wife, my sister, spent the last 3 years caring for him. They lived in Austin, loved Willie. Because of Covid-19 we can't even have a funeral for him. Next year when we can celebrate his life, I will have this song played for my sister.

Extraordinary how this particular song strikes so deeply in listeners! I doubt if anyone who hears it does not feel moved and personally involved. No matter how it is covered,every version seems to strike a vulnerable chord somewhere. Every way it is sung it has its emotional effect somewhere.
Always love ❤ Willie's rendition.

You are so lucky. Willie Nelson is my favourite singer. His songs are so meaningful.

I don't think I have heard any artist sing live as perfectly on key as Willie Nelson does.
My husband passed away January 14, 2021 he will be buried 2/12 and I picked this to play at his funeral because it explains what my emotions are. Tells just what I feel. Love you babe forever.

Willie Nelson still reckons that Always on My Mind was the best song Elvis ever crooned. 'People are always telling me how well I sing Always on My Mind', declared Willie. 'But the plain truth is, it was always meant for Elvis. I only sang it myself as an afterthought and now I'm not allowed off a stage without performing it.

It's fascinating how his voice seems to be the dominant instrument - perfectly capturing the subtleties of the lyrics. The rest of the band providing a soothing backdrop.
Yes, it's pretty amazing he captures one's soul with his voice, it makes you feel as if he's singing about your life. I'm very young but still, I feel it.
He was definitely the chosen 1 for this song. As a kid growing up, I always loved all of his songs. But, nobody will ever match or better Willie's version of this one. I've always believed that the best person to sing this on a tribute album would be his son. Lukas Nelson. He's the one who has the closest voice to his Dad's. I'd love to hear Lukas record his version of this song.
That's what I've always thought loved so much about Willie's music. His band/recording artists, no matter what song or era are always superb, but they never take away from Willie's unique voice and interpretation, yet he never seems to try to be the "star". Forget autotunes and screaming amplifiers and synthesizers, they don't need it, and we get to enjoy the results.
Nobody are more good unforgettable singer and mélodie of country ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song is such an incredible fit for Willie. His phrasing and voice is art in its purest form. He plays guitar like he sings. So unique. I adore him and his musical talent.

One of the most beautiful songs of all time. No one sings it like Willie. Speaks to straight to the soul.
sending love, true honesty is hard, did you watch this at live?
Only Elvis sounds way better
@@sandwhich395agreed with you! 🙏👍💯❤️🕊️💜💙
34 years ago when I first heard Willis sing this classic.
It spoke volumes for me and it seems like yesterday
Oh to undo the past.
Thanks fans for your likes and comment and thanks for always liking my music and the grate work have been doing so far. I really appreciate your love and support. I LOVE 🌹😘❤️ YOU ALL. You can message my email if you don't mind. here is my email : willienelson692@gmail.com
Thank you, Willie. Always tears in my eyes. Something for all of us to remember, always❤️.
Elvis's rendition is great, but the rawness of Willie's will never be bettered. Pure emotion
yes he never lies
Agreed .
I have heard this over 1,000 times , but it still gets me , I have to listen to every word , and I am always touched by the emotion of this tune !!!
I couldnt have said this any better
Only one thousand ? Wow oh to be as young again, anyhow i know exactly what you mean.
@@ianbaillie6868 no I'm
It’s amazing this song means more when you going through some heavy stuff makes me cry every time ❤️
Tomorrow I lay my father to rest, this was a favorite of his he will forever always be on my mind and in my heart. Love you daddy so much miss you already.
I played the song as she was passing on. I brought a red rose. I read the 23 Psalm and she passed. Saddest moment in my life.
I lost my wife being stubborn and foolish. this song always makes me think how I could have treated her better.
Talk to her!!!
@Donna is right.... talk to your ex. Even if not to get back together but tell her what you wrote here. I was thinking about a former BF and then Googled him only to find his obituary. We'd both moved on years ago but i wanted to tell him that all these years later i think of him. My thoughts weren't romantic but they were love.... the kind of love that wants only the best for someone.
@@kellyb3540 hi there you’re message resonates with me& romantic love is this love, wanting the best for that person even if they’re not with You
Some people just sing a song, others carry it to you, they are the ones who touch your heart, thoughts and feelings.
Yes, I agree witt you. It's true... rally true.

Well said..
The first song my beloved man sent to me...❤
I love that song - thank you for it, Willi Nelson ❣
Dozens of people have covered this... but Willie just owns this song.
Spot on. Willie Nelson has a voice that entwines lyrics and grasps the story of the song. He's unique in so many ways. Another American vocal treasure.
Karl Krogmann I totally agree......
@Imight Realperson He also wrote Crazy, which Patsy Cline sang better.
@Imight Realperson No, he did not.

Cherish your loved ones while they are here- and dont feel bad for longing for the day to reunite with them- its in our DNA to love deeply. Just remember, its always better to have loved and "lost", than to have never loved at all.
This man is one of the coolest people I was lucky enough to meet him so many years ago. He was just as humble and pleasant as they come. I think it was in 81 my mom had tickets and her date stood her up and I went with her and really enjoyed myself. I was 15 or 16 at the time it's one of my favorite moments with my mom.
Thank you so much for the unwavering love and support. Indeed you are a true fan. You can write me on willienelson426@gmail.com
I"ve lost my only child, Dec. 10, 2014, of kidney failure, she"s on dialysis for almost nine years, she's always on my mind , the pain of losing her, I carry in my heart.
Vanda Robin, I am so sorry.
Yeah me too
So sorry for your loss Vanda
that is really sad Vanda,i lost my daughter's twin
Sorry for your loss .. very sad .
Nobody does this song as good as Willie. You can feel the sincerity in his singing while everyone else just dings the song!!!
of course of course
Close him and Elvis both do this song very well you’re right
Name a song Willie has done that someone else has done better.

I agree Its the same with Dolly Parton.. NO one can sing "I will always love you" like her.. They are two of a kind.
I played this as my wife was passing on. I cannot listen to it without. RIP
There are more than 10,000 known covers of this song and still, nobody sings it better than Willie Nelson
True 👌
True. Have listened to most of them and yes this is the best.
Amen. 💀🔥🎻
Even Elvis Presley?
I´m sure he lived it.
My partner of 46 years died 4 months ago yesterday at 7.45pm listening to this song which had been our favourite for a long time, I can't listen to it without crying, so don't you go and die on my too Willie because I couldn't stand it.
Dude - I am so sorry for your loss
Your story has tears in my eyes too - be strong, God is obviously not done with you yet...
For me, it's thoughts of my dad (who passed in 2008) that usually get me like this....
They played this at my grandfather’s funeral. It was the first time I heard the song. It’s been 12 years now and this song still makes me feel like it was then. I really can’t handle death well but I know there will be lots of it as I get older. It just hurts seeing the world slip away
Wonderful post. I feel you
Rassurez vous, je réagis très mal à la mort moi aussi ! Surtout lorsque l on voit "s en aller" des amis d enfance.....
That was a moving comment. Here is a link to an Italian song I like, sung by Enrico Ruggeri which you might like. He is singing of the people he remembers from Christmases past, the priest, the aunt who never married-the people he loved and whom he will never see again. I hope you like it th-cam.com/video/5ouqhlh1c7w/w-d-xo.html Best wishes.
