I believe Merle Haggard's music was the most popular country music of all time. Growing up in the 70's at a mountainous region in the Philippines, his music was often heard in everyone's home...more folks loved country music back then. I was young and couldn't exactly remember the title of songs being played but so certain that it was a Merle Haggard's and I loved it, and still loving all his songs until now.. I'm 49.
Thanks for sharing your story. My bf and I were having dinner in the Casino in Winnipeg, MB a few years back and it was karaoke night. There were a few Phillipeano men having a blast singing country songs. We had a few chuckles with their accent but they were so happy and having so much fun. I thought it was awesome to see that your culture loved country music.
Singers who walked through the ages of time have come and gone. But there have been just a rare few who have left us a legends song. The footprints that graced the stage of many old places. Are now a memory of yesterday's words and unforgettable faces. Merle Haggard stepped out on a cloud and said good by. But he left us enough songs that his voice will for us never die. George Jones" Johnny Cash" Buck Owens" any many more have tipped their hat and took their last bow. But we as fans of those now gone we will always remain at the stage And be in the crowd...
Janet Hunter -----Janet Hunter....every song he has wrote and sung is like a BOOK of Biography of his entire like. He never forgot his raising and he never let fame go to his head. He truly loved and felt blessed to be able to sing and know that people loved him and his music and actually paid to hear it unlike as he said that some family might claim him for what they could get out of him but his fans loved him for who he was and how humble he was writing songs and singing them about his life. He will never be replaced!
Merle Haggard is, has been, and always will be my very favorite country music singer/Muscian, OF ALL TIME! I dearly love that man and he got me through a lot of heartache since 8th grade-1969! I miss him, just knowing he is not here. But I will see him again, and I believe sooner more than later! Not one person has come close to replacing him for me, my eyes, my ears and my heart! Until I got an iPad and found TH-cam, I only had my albums ( and I have more of his than any other singer/entertainer second only to Elvis ( and that's only because I got my sister Peggy's collection to put with mine! She was married and gone when I found Merle! ). Thanks TH-cam for all you have that I don't, and to anyone Else who uploads all this! Much Love and Thanks!
He is certainly one of my favorites but there are a few that I couldn't choose just one. Just to name a few Charlie Pride, George Jones, Ray Price, Allen Jackson, and the list goes on. I love them all.

Merle was a true American. It did not matter what race or religion. He spoke of and for America. Democrat or Republican it didn't matter. His music said it all
I wonder if the Country singers of today who miraculously are making a living off their no talent have ever watched or listened to someone like Merle? If so, surely they immediately applied at Walmart.
WTF would rate this interview with a thumbs down? It's because he's white. That's the only conclusion I can reach in this woke, cancel culture. The man rose from poverty to iconic success through his art. God speed Mr Haggard!

Merle passed on his 79th birthday a day I will never forget, because I cried that day, my music hero left me 💔
I met Him as a Janitor at a TRUCK stop He let me Mop between his feet 1974

Merle Haggard is very simply the greatest singer, songwriter in country music history period.
A piece of my heart went with Merle when he died...I'm so lost without him in the country music world...
Merle will never be dead as long as his sons are around
susan ringold Merle is dead....his music isn’t.
Merle tells you how it was, then writes songs about it. Finally the interview puts the final touch on all of it.

we love country music here in Europe too! Greetings@@almabelhumeur6672
one of the greatest, for me the greatest...
A true legend and taught us so much with his songs.
Singers who walked through the ages of time have come and gone.
But there have been just a rare few who have left us a legends song.

Beautifully put.
Well said
+Adrian Miller thank you.....

Robert Wiggins well said friend
He really told the story of his life in all his songs, Just so admire him and love his singing.

wish there were more interviews of Merle. Could listen to this guy’s stories all day. My favorite singer ever.
God touched you with a beautiful blessing, a beautiful voice and a very great talent to put words to music.
I miss him! He was the best. I lost my husband in May after he past in April. They were same age.
I wish I could understand how he wrote that many great songs. I know it's God given talent! But it's unreal truly
He wasn’t trying to be someone or something, he was who he was. You won’t find that now days, every entertainer trying to be something their not.
Music was so sincere back in those days
Merle. You're a legend man.so loved.so missed.you continue on while the mucic goes on.

Merle Haggard, was the Native people;s idol , most native men and women who are singers, were inspired by Merle.
When ever I here this man's music I see a Central California Valley in my head like a Steinbeck novel
So true, Armando. Unless you've been to the Central Valley of Ca, you don't understand. Bakersfield to Lodi. Salinas, Watsonville, etc.
Amen!!
There he goes, Merle Haggard, the greatest -- from the dawn of time and for all eternity.
Merle Haggard will always be the best of the best..🥃😎👌
He jumped on that music and rode it like a fantastic surfer. Vince Gill is my second favorite.
Merle h aggard is the best over all the singers so far
I prefer Waylon

Nancy Hickman Merle has 4 son's. Marty. Noel. Benny and Scott 8:37
A true American hero!
I wonder if the Country singers of today who miraculously are making a living off their no talent have ever watched or listened to someone like Merle? If so, surely they immediately applied at Walmart.
We could only hope they would lol
Merle "don't make me sing" Haggard
Interesting that Merle didn't mention Buck Owens in the segment about the Bakersfield Sound.
Because Buck and Merle came way after the people Merle mentioned. They paved the way. Probably why Faron Young was not mentioned either.
If you don't want it.. LEAVE IT... SO TRUE MERLE
Oh Yeah. ❤
that was don rich playin' cajun fiddle 👍👍👍
Definitely an American giant, he is up there with the best.
Born into a nightmare of psychology lol 👍
Miss you Merele
Guess we can tell where Clint Black got his act from, but he is great as well, but will never fill the boots of the Master!
WTF would rate this interview with a thumbs down? It's because he's white. That's the only conclusion I can reach in this woke, cancel culture. The man rose from poverty to iconic success through his art.
God speed Mr Haggard!
that's a helluva judgement on people of color
Maria Elena >:
What you mean?
But there's a solution for that as the quote say. DON'T JUDGE BY IT'S COVER.

Innit Journey Through The Dust Tris
Hello Maria how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
For not wanting to be a singer he sang and wrote a lot of number songs
I will always admire him for speaking up about how badly Obama was treated
Tommy Haynes Barry sucked though.
Really?? how so?
WOULD YOU TELL ME ONE THING HE DID FOR THIS COUNTRY? WE HAVE A REAL PRESIDENT NOW!!
I don't wana sing he says...lol -_-
