Smashed my finger working at a sawmill and my tendon got infected. Sitting here in the hospital and just got a slam of morphine and this is pairing well with it.
Being from Wise and Dickenson County Virginia, and having grown up with the Stanley Brothers, this young man is a breath a fresh air and embodies true bluegrass music.
Billy Strings is amazing. He is well known now, but he will be in the Hall of Fame someday. He is right up there with the Louvan Brothers, the Stanley Brothers, and all the greats. Watch and see. ❤️
The authenticity of Billy and the band shines through. The Stanley Brothers are not easy to copy well, and this version is outstanding, especially when considering this is live.
Beautiful man! Brings me chills from my childhood! If you ever see this Billy, Leave this one as you found it like you done so well here man! Hat tip to you son!
Man I love this song. My grandparents used to play it along with a long list of blue grass music. It was all my grandpa listened to. I once left my cassette of the Doors in the tape player of his truck, the look on his face when that was what he heard instead of bluegrass when it started playing …. Excellent cover.
I've loved watching Billy's singing come up to match his guitar playing. He could always sing, of course, but now he's really got it down and it's a pleasure to hear.
If you haven’t seen him in concert you should. By far the absolute best show I have ever been too, and I have been to some good ones. Backdrop graphics are amazing.
Going to see him for the first time today in St.Augustine Florida with my family from st Petersburg FL can't wait till this afternoon will be a great experience
Kluci tohle je u mně skutečný Bluegrass. Tohle hrajte pořád. A v tomto duchu skládejte i nové písně a nemůžete udělat chybu !!! Zdravím vás z České republiky 🤠🪕🔥🎻🇨🇿
You have that right, sir. I'm an old man from the Eastern Kentucky Highlands and am rooted in old-time Mountain Music/Bluegrass. I've only heard some of this fellow's guitar picking and was doubtful about how he might handle a song like this. No longer! He sang it and played the guitar breaks just as the song should be sung and played. I think the Stanley Brothers would approve. I think it's wonderful that people such as yourself can relate to this music and realize it's the heart and soul lies with songs such as this. We share something in common, I think, in the folk music of our two countries. I've heard some really impressive Bluegrass from your country and always feel like it's a real compliment. Okay, sorry to go on so long. I hope all is well with you in your beautiful land.
Growing up in Appalachia Kentucky this song brings back memories of home, I see an old farmhouse and mammy and Pappy setting in the living room listening to flat and Scruggs those many years ago, I can’t wait to see them along with mom, pop, all my aunts, uncles, cousins already gone home. Bless those mountain roads hollers, and that old church house we all loved. They sing as if they know how we feel from being here and knowing the feeling of living in these old mountains, the people, the customs and the things that make this place the only place in the world you wanna be, it’s home.
Omg I freaking love this song and I went to type it in and it said Billy strings beside rank stranger. 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍 just beautiful and wonderful and amazing and ALL THE THINGS
Carter and Ralph are smiling down on these boys!!
Billy is great, one if a kind❤
Those Clinch Mountain Boys sure could harmonize.
Yes sir. Beautiful music!
Wow they blow me away when they play these old standards of Bluegrass. The hottest band on the planet right now. I Love It. Congrats Billy 👏 👏 👏
Its because they wouldnt have their music without these old songs. They appreciate that ❤
1:50 Have you ever visited Eastern Kentucky? Everyone has a guitar behind the door and they will play it at the drop of a
Those Clinch Mtn. Boys could sure harmonize
Me to I love it thanks 😊 ❤!!++
@@ByronCotton-l2o That's where my family is from. The Sun came up at 10 in the morning and set at 3 in the afternoon it seemed..
Smashed my finger working at a sawmill and my tendon got infected. Sitting here in the hospital and just got a slam of morphine and this is pairing well with it.
Oof, sheesh, heal up fast.
Hope you’re better! Lol, this song should help!
I'm jealous
Dont get addicted, opiates pair with everything.
Watch "Walk the Line" the Johnny Cash movie.

Scott county here.
Coeburn here neighbors .
My Dad grew up in Big Stone Gap ......
Franklin County VA here..
Other than being a gay-azz commie which has NOTHING to do with the BG ethos
Thank you Billy for keeping it alive. God Bless you sir.
I've heard of you young man but I've never listened to your music till now,you got my attention for sure, God Bless You Sir,keep it up,
As usual, Billy and the boys doing justice to a legendary Stanley Brothers song
I saw him back in April 2023 and they played Stone Walls and Steel Bars. Absolutely paid it justice with the cover
Billy Strings is amazing. He is well known now, but he will be in the Hall of Fame someday. He is right up there with the Louvan Brothers, the Stanley Brothers, and all the greats. Watch and see. ❤️
Kid has definitely got it
Glory To God! Soon we’ll all be going to our Eternal Home In Heaven. Thank you for this song.
The only thing I hate is not to be able to go to my own funeral
Great stuff Billy...A real song and well sung...Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 ☘️
Billy Strings is great singer U K
Wow what a voice. Being from the blue ridge mts of NC I can really appreciate this music.
Billy has been a country and bluegrass legend since day 1
I HEARD HIS VOICE AND IT WAS ALL OVER FOR ME. THE MOST ORIGINAL SINCE HANK!
One of the few who can do justice to the original bluegrass legends.
The authenticity of Billy and the band shines through.
The Stanley Brothers are not easy to copy well, and this version is outstanding, especially when considering this is live.
Billy was put on this earth to keep the old standards in blue grass alive.
Best rendition since Ralph Stanley!
Best rendition since Carter Stanley!
Billy Strings, keeping it alive.
Beautiful man! Brings me chills from my childhood! If you ever see this Billy, Leave this one as you found it like you done so well here man! Hat tip to you son!
Thanks guys a beautiful job on a beautiful song
That was amazing! I’ve never liked to hear any one else sing this song besides Ralph Stanley till now. Y’all did an awesome job!!❤
Billy Strings in my opinion is the most talented musician alive,his band members are not bad themselves..
I think so also.
One of the best renditions. The Stanley brothers would be impressed. Thank you.
One of my very, very favorite bluegrass tunes.
This genre keeps sending us angels. Welcome to the real gold Billy.

Love that song and it was never sung better. You are fabulous
Just stumbled on Billy Strings. He’s an outstanding guitar player and singer. Why is he not on country award shows?
I love this song, there's something so haunting about the music.
THIS YOUNG MAN HAS IT ALL. HE IS GIFTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When he hit that first note instant chills
So polished ! Billy, you came to save music from mediocrity and damn it if you haven't been victorious in your campaign!
Beautiful!

Billy Strings is something special I tell ya. Talent is all. 🎉
I've loved watching Billy's singing come up to match his guitar playing. He could always sing, of course, but now he's really got it down and it's a pleasure to hear.
A very fine rendition of this country classic.

Man, he can pick that guitar!
I feel this song deep in my bones
That is a great job..would love him to do a gospel album
I was at this show. Ralph Stanley smiled in heaven when he heard this! It was a perfect cover!
Very talented. Awesome rendition of this song.
I love Billy Strings❤
Great. Just great. Each and every one!
Wonderful cover. Thank you. Dr. Stanley would be so pleased.

This brought back memories of my dad and us girls singing these old songs with him through the years ! Great job !!
Well i like this song. Old country❤

My thought exactly. The Stanley Brothers are a hard act to follow, but Billy Strings and his band cover this great song beautifully.
An old timey favorite 😁
I love this song. And I love Billy. I am wondering why the notes around 1:30 sound so familiar?
Omg I freaking love this song and I went to type it in and it said Billy strings beside rank stranger. 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍 just beautiful and wonderful and amazing and ALL THE THINGS
Thank you Billy Strings & band.
He is the best there is!
My Dad in heaven is enjoying this cover of Rank Stranger. Thx Billy!

Where Noone will be a stranger to me.
He reminds me so much of The Great Tony Rice in his handling of the standards
