    This is THE most underrated song for both Ray Charles and Willie Nelson. Their talents blended perfectly.

      Id have to give the "Most Underrated Willie Nelson Song" distinction to "The Great Divide" but this is my favorite from him. It's incredible.

      It also puts me into tears at times. Ah, Granddad Whyatt, I miss you, you damned best Grazier in Australia at your prime... well my opinion, none of them were as cool and had good access to Japanese markets in the 80's. Us grandkids loved you tonnes. You won't be chasing the devil's herd across the sky wherever you be, you'll be teaching them how to do it properly so the damned cattle don't escape in the first place.

    My father died in 2013 at the age of 91. He was an incredible man and a wonderful father. Last month (Feb, 2015) I found an old tape cassette in his house. I brought it to a transfer studio to see what was on it and when they popped it in the player, like a gift from heaven, what I hear is my father singing Seven Spanish Angels. I was stunned and started to cry. He only sang the chorus, but he did so clearly and beautifully (with no accompaniment). I had never heard the song before so when I came home I immediately googled it and found this video. Thank you so much for posting..... my father must have loved this song and after listening to it I'm not surprised. What a treasure. I believe this was a message to me that he is in heaven.

My dad never said the words White man, Black, or any race ever, our own relatives made fun of us, saying we were raised White, because we didn’t get raised in Black culture”. He raised us knowing the Bible and his verse he quoted when things got tough was Romans 8:28 And we know all things work together for good to those who love G-d, to those who are called according to His purpose.

    At 16, my grandfather fell head over heels in love with a beautiful, dark-haired girl from Mexico, and they were married. 52 years, 4 children and 12 grandkids later, once a week or so, he would still break out his guitar and sing this song to her. Not to show off but to impress the girl he had been trying to impress basically his entire life. It will be 4 years in december since he passed, and I still catch my grandma playing Seven Spanish Angels as loud as it will go with tears in her eyes. If i can be half the man he was, then I'll be doing just fine. Love you, Pepaw.

Larry, good guy, heart of gold, helpful to all he crossed paths with, was a rugged individualist who grew up in the rough and tumble world of north central California. He loved Country and Western music, his home and family. The story of this song could very well be Larry's story and therefore, it is dedicated to him and his loving wife. May peace be with you, Larry. R.I.P.

    This is one of the greatest songs of the modern era. It has everything... Spirituality, an allusion to the impermanence of life and the strength of love, the inspiration of unity, and a soulful and almost surreal musical delivery.

      seems like this music which you can feel the emotions from the very first note, has been pushed aside by the music industry. they would rather have negative, disgusting, meaningless music pushed on the people. think about if this type of music was mainstream again

    I have always believed that Elvis is pastor Bob Joyce . Let him live in peace to do the things that he has loved all his life. God bless you
