It's not only america. I have a 1967 Rambler Rebel in FINLAND. Doing midnight runs in that thing on a cool summer night is something few will understand. By my friends, that car is known as "Night Prowler"
@@superturboawesome1 For Slim it was pretty much what was in the video, mixed with an old love. Can’t really say the rest. He was an honorable outlaw in his past.
Just saw Charley live in Austin and he is even better live. Such a unique talent and showman. Just when I thought Country music was dead. Thank you Charley.
So refreshing to hear Charlie’s style of country music. It goes back to Hank Williams, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and all the greats of country music! We need more of him!
No one else can sing 'em like Charley. Voice like butter, restrained and effortless at the same time. Simply incredible. Another solid tune for the soundtrack of life.
I love everything Charley does however, I vacillate between thinking he's a time traveler from the early 70s here to remind us how far modern music has sunk and believing this is an elaborate piece of performance art. It's almost like he's too authentic. But it keeps me coming back for more.
very true, u can tell how he tries to capture as much vintage things as he can in his videos. for example when he was on that black cord telephone, he was puzzled on how it worked lol. hes an old school outlaw living in modern times.
I live in Memphis, he has a show here May 19th. I tried to get tickets but everywhere says sold out probably due to it being a small venue. But I was able to get tickets 6 hours away in Lexington, KY. Hope to see you there!
I sit here in Bavaria in my garden around the campfire and enjoy Charley's music after work is done. Life can be so good when you appreciate the little things. thanks to charley
Charley, Everything I’ve heard from you is fantastic, and this song pushes fantastic over the edge. My dad and I Iove drinking beer and watching your videos. This song is special because you incorporate your sound into what a classic ford truck looks like. Thank you for all that you do.
Damn mr Crockett ! Please keep doing this ! We can’t loose this music …they always said “who’s gonna fill their shoes “ I have to say your doing it very well.
I’m not a country fan by any stretch. However at work my friend from Georgia played this. I INSTANTLY was hooked. What a voice, and the band compliments him so well!
Lyrics: What makes a man think that he can forget about what used to be Be happy with the way life is, not think about what once was his Whiskey drunk and under the gun I'm taking me a midnight run I'm taking me a midnight run I'm making another one A thousand miles or more I'll drive to where I lived when I thought I was alive They'll never know I was ever around Just my shadow on the ground I turn east to face the sun After making me a midnight run I tell you all 'cause you need to know They don't call for me to go I hear that voice coming 'cross the miles I got no choice but to be gone a while I say get in you better lock and load Don't let the wind block the road I'll be gone but when it's done I'm all alone on my midnight run I'm taking me a midnight run I'm making another one A thousand miles or more I'll drive to where I lived when I thought I was alive They'll never know I was ever around Just my shadow on the ground I turn east to face the sun After making me a midnight run
Crockett is the man! Loving the sound, and the music videos are always icing on the cake! Keep waiting for his official releases of "Oh Jeremiah" and "When Will My Troubles End?"!
Old James ‘Slim’ Hand from Tokio is smiling down on Charlie for cutting such a great rendition of a song that Slim absolutely killed. If you haven’t listened to James Hand, you really should .. he was that damn good !
I heard this on the radio today, and I honestly thought it was an obscure song from the 70s. Let me just say, I was shocked when I found out it's only a couple years old. This is what all country should sound like. A sound so genuine you can't fake it.
One of the best club concerts I’ve ever been to Charley is magical and the real deal we saw him open and then watched him stay and enjoy the other bands gig. Then he came out and took pictures with us. His live performances are not to be missed
Only Charley can release a new banger on a Tuesday night
No doubt!
he did not write this james hand did and james hand is a million times better than this poser
@@Vaz_DeFerenz I know he didn't write it, but it's still good. Sounds real good
@@Vaz_DeFerenzI didn't think he meant anything by it. Chill out 😂 They are both great artist's!
He had a playoff game against the lakers on Saturday so Tuesday it had to be.
It’s such an authentic, nostalgic, “I’ve been here a 100 times, I’ll be here a 100 more” feeling. Killing it dude
I absolutely love every song he comes out with...
Me too! I just found him recently because of this TH-camr named Grady Smith I believe. I’m so thankful because this guys music is incredible.
Did he write this one friend? I got conflicting info...
@@MJ-ix7wm this is his cover of a James Hand song
He puts thought and effort into every song. I haven't heard anything from him that sounded like it was mailed in.
He makes it easy to love
Whoever does his music videos deserves a raise.
One of the great voices in Americana music, hell in ANY kind of music. Charley's the real deal.
Hell yeah I agree!
Most of the stuff you hear on the radio since 2000 is crap. There is only a few originals that have their own sound and Charley is one of them.
Aaaa😂
Finally some more good driving music
I love seeing Charlie riding around in an old 7.3.
Ikr, showing that OBS love!
@cdogg21 Yep, I got a two tone 97’ CCLB 7.3
Glad I’m not the only one who appreciates that
92 F350 flatbed dump, 7.3 idi, Charlie Crockett fan
Because it has that 7.3, it’s still around.
one for all us boys on the Midnight Run
10-4 good buddy, I got my ears on
That's a good copy
14 gears to get her back in your arms brother
Either too many or not enough men understand a true 'Midnight Run'. Hats off to ya, Charley.
Maybe Ill go on a midnight run after I get these legal issues cleared.
It's not only america. I have a 1967 Rambler Rebel in FINLAND. Doing midnight runs in that thing on a cool summer night is something few will understand. By my friends, that car is known as "Night Prowler"
I’m just hoping my town is small enough that Charlie would play here!
Where’s your location Brandon?
@@stephenjones8074 you the feds?
Im from Chicago and he’s only playing Tennessee and Texas:(
He's played Tyler
I’m glad Texas is open, got to see him in concert recently....
luckenbach?
A Modern legend capturing the time
Written by the one and only, James Hand. One hell of a good Pal.
You are soooo RIGHT RIP JAMES HAND
Charlie's whole surprise album of James Hand covers is just phenomenal, end to end.
What exactly is this midnight run?
When respect is deeper then the music
@@superturboawesome1 For Slim it was pretty much what was in the video, mixed with an old love. Can’t really say the rest. He was an honorable outlaw in his past.
This guy is a genius, and is making some of the only music worth listening to these days. God Bless you, Charley.
Just saw Charley live in Austin and he is even better live. Such a unique talent and showman. Just when I thought Country music was dead. Thank you Charley.
It's a good thing Charlie and Colter are out there making this music. It's just enough to keep the Florida Georgia Line garbage from being unbearable.
Don't forget about Sturgill Simpson or Tyler Childers lol
@@dungeoncrawlerharl Don't forget Cody Jinks and Billy Strings!
@@BoiseG brother, won't lie, they were actually the next two on my list. You just blew my mind hahaha
And zach bryan
And let's not forget about WAP on the other side of the fence lol... pure, utter trash.
So refreshing to hear Charlie’s style of country music. It goes back to Hank Williams, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and all the greats of country music! We need more of him!
Boy was it missed.
Makes me cry. We had it all with James Hand and now we lost him. Go find his music and make him the star he deserved to be.
I'm sure Slim's proud! Ten for Slims' Intro gave me goosebumps. You're a good man, with fantastic talents!
Riding home right now 10PM. I won't be home till 12, and I got this on. Thank you Charley.
Thats what i put too man
I'm not much of a country person, but the way Charley sings and performs these songs really vibes with me.
@@garrettharvey3785 when did they say anything abt being familiar w any kind of country music doof reread it
@@Qomicbook point taken, and I stand corrected.
This song is sooo smooth!
They always find the best filming locations for these videos
Great Cinematography 👍
No one else can sing 'em like Charley. Voice like butter, restrained and effortless at the same time. Simply incredible. Another solid tune for the soundtrack of life.
This is a cover.
Charley Crockett is a national treasure! 🤠👍🏼🇺🇸
I love to twirl my Charley Crockett cds while truck'n the long lonely southwest deserts,....Thanks C.C.
Me too, AZ life!
I love everything Charley does however, I vacillate between thinking he's a time traveler from the early 70s here to remind us how far modern music has sunk and believing this is an elaborate piece of performance art. It's almost like he's too authentic.
But it keeps me coming back for more.
That is EXACTLY right!!
tbh, "performance art" is cool. If you believe in what you do, it's authentic.
Old soul brother. It’s a real thing. Same as the only ones who can enjoy this at a young age. Last of a dying breeed
Right guy in the wrong time
very true, u can tell how he tries to capture as much vintage things as he can in his videos. for example when he was on that black cord telephone, he was puzzled on how it worked lol. hes an old school outlaw living in modern times.
I can't explain in words how this song and most of Charley's songs make me feel.
hey man, I'm old school country... this dude's got it.
Soon as the music starts I feel like I've been sent back in a time machine. Memories of 8 tracks and the feel of Bobby Bare are in the air.
Bringing old classics back to light. Dusting off the old, nice polish to this track Charley. Keep it up!
Charley makes the kind of songs The Dead would cover if Jerry was still here.
Aint nobody else like Charley Crockett. Would be blessed if he comes to Kentucky I’d drive anywhere to see a show.
I done did seen him bout 25 minutes from my house one time purtneer a year ago it was
I live in Memphis, he has a show here May 19th. I tried to get tickets but everywhere says sold out probably due to it being a small venue. But I was able to get tickets 6 hours away in Lexington, KY. Hope to see you there!
I sit here in Bavaria in my garden around the campfire and enjoy Charley's music after work is done. Life can be so good when you appreciate the little things. thanks to charley
Saw James Hand do this in 2005 and bought all his stuff..Glad Charley Crocket is keeping his music alive
Good times Charley’s got the blues 🌵
Matt. You got that right. I said you got that right....... They can't shine Crockett's boots.. premium sound...gdsht
total package, look, voice, vibe, style, back story … 💯💯💯💯
Slim would be proud! Hope you can tour Wyoming sometime this year.
I'm taking me a midnight run.. 🍁🍂
I'll say it again... F****ing Awsome! Love Charlie's style to the fullest.
Pure class. A Troubadour through and through.
Real country will never die!! Carry that torch CC
God bless James Hand and god bless Charley Crockett
Anybody can pray for rain, you best keep busy diggin’ a well boy.
Very glad we have a man like this at the forefront of folk music, his songs always hit a soft spot that takes me back to many memories.
Charley,
Everything I’ve heard from you is fantastic, and this song pushes fantastic over the edge. My dad and I Iove drinking beer and watching your videos. This song is special because you incorporate your sound into what a classic ford truck looks like. Thank you for all that you do.
Charley boy your the man keep em coming brother we support your music and you
Now this is some great Country music. Absolutely fantastic!
Damn mr Crockett ! Please keep doing this ! We can’t loose this music …they always said “who’s gonna fill their shoes “ I have to say your doing it very well.
You're the man Charley, and that's Charley with a Y and Crockett with two T's.
I’m not a country fan by any stretch. However at work my friend from Georgia played this. I INSTANTLY was hooked. What a voice, and the band compliments him so well!
Paul Revere was jamming this on his horse during the first documented “Midnight Run” ever made
Lol
Unbelievable!! Charley can’t make a bad song 🔥
Lyrics:
What makes a man think that he can forget about what used to be
Be happy with the way life is, not think about what once was his
Whiskey drunk and under the gun
I'm taking me a midnight run
I'm taking me a midnight run
I'm making another one
A thousand miles or more I'll drive to where I lived when I thought I was alive
They'll never know I was ever around
Just my shadow on the ground
I turn east to face the sun
After making me a midnight run
I tell you all 'cause you need to know
They don't call for me to go
I hear that voice coming 'cross the miles
I got no choice but to be gone a while
I say get in you better lock and load
Don't let the wind block the road
I'll be gone but when it's done
I'm all alone on my midnight run
I'm taking me a midnight run
I'm making another one
A thousand miles or more I'll drive to where I lived when I thought I was alive
They'll never know I was ever around
Just my shadow on the ground
I turn east to face the sun
After making me a midnight run
Good Country is back! Hank3 is back, too!! This is what the world needs.
This whole album is good... Lesson in depression 🍻🥃
I'm old ..... this is good stuff ! Has a 60’s sound like a cross between Nashville and Bakersfield.
My favorite song while I’m on the road 🔥
Found him just 6 months ago and I can't get enough.
Crockett is the man! Loving the sound, and the music videos are always icing on the cake!
Keep waiting for his official releases of "Oh Jeremiah" and "When Will My Troubles End?"!
Dude! Charley Crockett is the real deal OutLaw Country BluesMan Rock N Roll Rebel. Hell yeah !
I love you and your music Charley Crockett! Best way to start and end my day!🇺🇸🖤💙🐎
Mr. Crockett Sir this song is freakin amazing, and I listen to it on repeat at work! Keep pumping the timeless tune out! Our society needs it!
Nothing Like Real Country Music! This Man Is The Real Deal!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Keep it going Charley Crockett , man what a sound !
The Best song on 10 for Slim hands down, Charley thanks for all you do! I know Slim appreciates it.
Another one!
The man has the golden touch.
Another great song for Chally Crockett
The man, the myth, the legend
Love his voice & his style ❤
I love your voice . Keep doing what you're doing. Its amazing. ♥️
More than music this is art
One of my new all time favorite artists!!!! God bless Texas!!!
Old James ‘Slim’ Hand from Tokio is smiling down on Charlie for cutting such a great rendition of a song that Slim absolutely killed. If you haven’t listened to James Hand, you really should .. he was that damn good !
This is my absolute favorite song. God bless this man
Reminds me of driving up and down on I-95 to and from the Northeast to Jacksonville.
Counting them South of the Border signs.
wake up babe new charley crockett video
I finally heard one of Charley's songs on my local station and I dang near shed a tear!
Posts right on midnight❤️
Love this mans music, I keep it on repeat constantly
I have accounted for at least 3000 of the views on this song.....
I wish Charley would come to England !
This is great. Charley is one of my favorite artists today.
I listen to this song about 5 times a day. 🙏
Great tribute to the late great songwriter/ singer James Hand. Nice job Charley!
Lord have mercy sounds so classic. I loooove it
This is a good one
I heard this on the radio today, and I honestly thought it was an obscure song from the 70s. Let me just say, I was shocked when I found out it's only a couple years old. This is what all country should sound like. A sound so genuine you can't fake it.
THE GOAT
BTW FREE YOUNGBOY
Only Charley can cover James Hand and do it justice
Love how you released this damn near midnight, nice touch.
Love this Cover of a beautiful old song! Well done CC & Band. ❤️
Thank god for real county music! Good stuff can’t stop listening
Man... the hits keep coming, thank you Charley!
Girlfriend up and left, charley throws this at us “tip your hat and drink alone” type dudes, it’ll be fine brother.
Quite an essence for the lonesome whiskey drinker. God bless brother.
I'm right there with you. Your girlfriend up and left me, too.
How's the wife and my kids hehe jk
Charlie! Your the best!!!!!!
hope you've been well friend, keep truckin' we're with you. we feel your pain...
One of the best club concerts I’ve ever been to
Charley is magical and the real deal we saw him open and then watched him stay and enjoy the other bands gig. Then he came out and took pictures with us. His live performances are not to be missed
Absolutely a Charley Crockett classic song!
