I totally agree...! ..4 those who think ,they know equal to Robert Zimmerland,or is it man, lennon & the other guy,...shit I could write another 20 odd names... but ,naaa, I can't be bothered !
I agree there's been so many songwriter from Texas but I sorta knew him from one of the neighborhood s in Houston I was so proud of him but jealous too I'm a songwriter and played in some of those same honky tonks on the rough side of Houston God bless him and his music it still helps to remember those times he's a musical genius
My grandson has Dravet Syndrome and this song is the only song that calms him down. This is the song he goes to sleep to every single day. He heard this song while I was listening to it. My father passed away from pancreatic cancer and now the song has a very deep personal meaning to me on several fronts. Thank you for this gift you have given to all of us.
I remember the first time I heard this song. 20, recently laid-off, broken up with a 2 year GF and learning that my parent's 28 year marriage was ending. I was lost. This song brings that all back, but in a good, nostalgic way. We experience, suffer, learn and move on. It's a long, and sometimes lonesome highway.
It's really hard not to love this man!! His song writing is way beyond what some even know how to love. I love you, Rodney!! You are the best brother in the world. I miss you so much!!
@@ddcasey I know very well, who's daughter Roseanne Cash is, who her father was, and that she and Rodney Crowell were married. I didn't need you to tell me.
Yes. Guy was so talented just like townes and many others like blaze Foley. Miss all those folks and I don't ever see them being replaced anytime soon 😪
This video was filmed in and around Taos, New Mexico. Holy Cross hospital which appears briefly in the video is where my Grandma passed away, this song always brings tears to my eyes.
The line where his dad said there's nothing left to hold me, though I was there,he died alone gets me every time.I wonder if my Dad thought that,he fought so hard for so long.RIP Daddy
I'm sitting here listening to this song for perhaps the seventh or eighth time today. I can never listen to it just once per sitting. This, like many of RC songs, hits a spot in one's heart by recalling life's experiences and struggles. His newer songs differ only in the amount of experiences he has to draw from and the fact that he "Don't Care Anymore" and flat out puts it all out there. Thank you, Mr. Crowell, for giving us decades of your experiences and showing us that no matter what troubled times we are experiencing, we are not alone.
This mans voice is so incredible, his story telling is hypnotic. I was sitting in Mérida, Yucatán, MX listening to Rodney talk about writing songs in Texas, Galveston, I believe, it was thrilling because I was moving to Texas! ❤️🇨🇱
Galveston born and Texas raised, to me Rodney is more Texas than Willie Nelson. As a child growing up in Lufkin and to hear it in a song was so cool. Been a fan since I can remember.
Rodney Crowell's father died at San Jacinto Methodist Hospital in Baytown, Texas, near his hometown of Crosby, Texas. I worked there on the unit were the gentleman passed and met Mr. Crowell a couple times during that terrible ordeal, which he handled, I thought, quite very graciously. I liked the man, personally, and respected that he handled the matter with so much dignity.
+Lucas Black Dignity? Sort of like the suggestive avatar you have on display, showing two obviously naked people on the verge of (if not actually engaging in) copulation? Now that's true class (by Mexican or ghetto standards).
first, let me just start by saying I am a white, female, retired, democrat, liberal, whatever the fuck you want to call it. I own my own home and my car is paid for. Now, you little shit-for-brains twit... My bad because I didn't reply directly to remembering 1992. so why don't you take your little trump-like tantrum throwing ass and go play on the freeway.
JHC can anyone say anything on here without sparking a fight? '92, I write erotica for a living, hence the profile photo. If you dislike it, so sad too bad. My happiness never relies on your judgment but thanks for playing. Lyn, I am an old white conservative (I hesitate to say Republican, since I really don't identify as such) and a proud lifelong Texan. My God, I try to tell a poignant tale of a decent man losing his father, and it turns into this? I weep for civility and non-judgment, which are the casualties of the last 20 and more years. What the hell did my post have to do with politics or Mexican ghettos?
I suspect this song was written as an expression of how the man felt after his father died. A beautiful and truthful comment on a lonely future. Treasure the ones you love. You wont have them forever and they wont have you forever either.
This song and video has stayed with me for over 20 years, and yet this is the first time I have seen it in almost that long, but the images were so memorable, the beauty of this song so poetic and so musically artiistic that it stayed in my mind, able to be called up at anytime. One of the few times a music video actually acheived the level of art....a great almost unknown masterpiece.
Really I feel like this song is the essence of an american spirit for me and I am dreaming sometimes to start my life again somewhere in Wyoming among great nature and lonesome highways, just as it is shown in this piece of art by Rodney Crowell...
You can't ignore /his man's talent.His songs say so much about him. It also is so much likemylife IRELATE TO CERTAIN O BECAUSE OF THE WORDS THAT ARE; BEING USE D.==RODNEYS TELL A STORY ABOUT SOMEONE'S LIFE! HE SINGS WITH HIS ❤💙
slomojoe77 That’s exactly what I thought the first time I saw this video. I’m kinda puzzled as to why others don’t see it. They only see Guy as bumming cigs. However, we could both be wrong. Lol!
slomojoe77 I’m afraid, I am a smoker. However, I’m seriously about to quit, for real, this time! It’s a terrible habit and I’ve been addicted way too long. I started at 16 and I’m 45 now so it’s high time I kick it. I have tremendous will power in every thing else so it’s just a matter of making up my mind and being done with it. Perhaps, that’s is why we see this video in the same light. A guy trying to help his buddy give them up. Best of luck to you with kicking the habit too! We can do it! 👍
well my friend, I left my family and friends for Wyoming and do not regret it. In fact, I am going to be able to see Rodney Crowell on the mountain in Casper in August!
ok. I started listening to my own music in 1991 at the age of 12. I switched over to Country in 1996 at 17 (if was very uncool to claim country but I didn't care!) anyways Rodney is before my time. I seen his name as a songwriter but didn't put much thought into it. One Month ago (Dec 2010 I decided to make a playlist of Country songs that came out in 1990, 1989 and 1988. He's got 2 or 3 on there and I love listening to RC now!! He's my newest favorite singer right now.
I remembered seeing a video back in 89'-90' where one guy keeps taking another's cigarettes, but could never remember the song, until i stumbled across the video on here. IDK why but it's a great song to listen to while on a road trip.
Hey Rodney....we met in 2006 at the Mystic Theater in Petaluma and I'm now living up in Taos at Ken Green's Lodge....he's now 87 and legally blind and says to get you're ass back up here!
THANK YOU MR. CROWELL FOR SHARING YOUR MUSIC, AND YOUR AMAZING VEDIO WITH ALL US DREAMERS. LIFE: sometimes if you can just get in an car , fill up the tank. and just go. go. and go. sure can make a world of difference, help you see life in a totaly different light. it helps. what a feeling of true freedom. like a breathe of fresh air. ------along this long and lonesome road . where it ends i don't want to know. like a ship sailing out to sea. the stars light my way. where it takes me i don't know.
I heard this song in 1990 I was a sophomore in HS. It instantly became my favorite song at the time and all thru the years it is still my all time favorite song.

![Rodney Crowell - "It Ain't Over Yet (feat. Rosanne Cash & John Paul White)" [Official Video]](/img/n.gif)
Rodney is the most underated singer/song writer I've ever known
I totally agree...! ..4 those who think ,they know equal to Robert Zimmerland,or is it man, lennon & the other guy,...shit I could write another 20 odd names... but ,naaa, I can't be bothered !
Agreed, and Warren Zevon and Townes Van Zandt fall into that category as well.
The other fellow in this video, Guy Clark, was Rodney's songwriting mentor.
Guy Clark is one of the best songwriters ever.✌️
You have that right!
I agree there's been so many songwriter from Texas but I sorta knew him from one of the neighborhood s in Houston I was so proud of him but jealous too I'm a songwriter and played in some of those same honky tonks on the rough side of Houston God bless him and his music it still helps to remember those times he's a musical genius

That's an incredibly amazing story! I'm gonna say some prayers for your family right now.
I hope this song still helps. We all wish the best for you and your family!
What a wonderful story. Best of luck to you.

I love this song. He is an awesome songwriter.
Rodney Crowell isn't dead.😒
@@ddcasey I know very well, who's daughter Roseanne Cash is, who her father was, and that she and Rodney Crowell were married. I didn't need you to tell me.
@@ddcasey , NC Donna Casey ?
It's much easier to not even try to not love him. Sorry things didn't work out with Roseanne
I love this song, I always thought Rodney Crowell never got enough radio time or awards, this is real music, in my opinion.
Two of music industries greatest artist in one video and a song that just makes this nasty ole world go away.
Thank You Mr Crowell.
Yes. Guy was so talented just like townes and many others like blaze Foley. Miss all those folks and I don't ever see them being replaced anytime soon 😪
This song pulls on my emotions. I miss my family and those who've passed away. Love the lyrics and music.
This video was filmed in and around Taos, New Mexico. Holy Cross hospital which appears briefly in the video is where my Grandma passed away, this song always brings tears to my eyes.
The line where his dad said there's nothing left to hold me, though I was there,he died alone gets me every time.I wonder if my Dad thought that,he fought so hard for so long.RIP Daddy
One of the best voices in country music ever
and one of the best word men also!
Yes this guy is amazing, such a great voice.
Damn this is a gem. Living legend rodney

This man is an amazing musician. Love all of his songs but this was always one of my favorites! Imo never got the popularity it deserved
This mans voice is so incredible, his story telling is hypnotic. I was sitting in Mérida, Yucatán, MX listening to Rodney talk about writing songs in Texas, Galveston, I believe, it was thrilling because I was moving to Texas! ❤️🇨🇱

@copperdiablo2717 I lived close to those small townes in east Texas. Such a cool place.
One of my most favorite songs of all time.Rodney is great
I don’t understand why anyone would give a thumbs down
I've been a fan for many years and have yet to find anyone better.
The most underrated singer and songwriter... love his music
Probably Rodney's best song ever.and the video with Guy Clark is a heartbreaker ,great.
It crushes me sometimes to hear and see guy. God I miss him
Guy Clark didn't quit smoking. He just quit buying :)
Peace sells but who's buying.
@@jeffforden3586 How in the Hell did you find that after 10 years? Hahaha 😄
@forrestry my dad used to listen to that and it just popped up in my brain! Lolol
He helped Rodney quit….
What a beautiful song, sung by a very talented man. That must have been quite a trip--nice car!😊💒
One of the greatest song of all time.......perhaps those so called country stars nowadays should take notes....great job Rodney and Guy...
"my father on his deathbed----tho i was there he died alone" hits hard, happened to me. this song is awesome, and i feel every word.
Rodney Crowell's father died at San Jacinto Methodist Hospital in Baytown, Texas, near his hometown of Crosby, Texas. I worked there on the unit were the gentleman passed and met Mr. Crowell a couple times during that terrible ordeal, which he handled, I thought, quite very graciously.

+Lucas Black Dignity? Sort of like the suggestive avatar you have on display, showing two obviously naked people on the verge of (if not actually engaging in) copulation? Now that's true class (by Mexican or ghetto standards).
get your mind out of the fucking gutter. let me guess - you are an old white republican.

Beautiful song, and the guitar solo at the end is absolutely perfect.
Quintessential Rodney, great intro's and superb outro's bookend his wonderful songs excellently!
Met Rodney in a restaurant in New Orleans back in the 90's. I fell in love with his music, and am still in love today!
January. 20. 2024 This. Is. One. Of. The. Best. Songs. Of. All. Time. Rodney. Crowel. Long. And. Lonesome. Highway. And. Should. Have. Won. A. Grammy. For. Song. Of. The. Year😊
Love Steuart Smith's guitar playing on this track
Still a great song in 2019
And always will be for eternity
Guy Clark, I met him in Castle Creek Salloon, Jerry Jeff popped in, what a night. God Speed
This song and the video have been worldshaping in my life in its own way for over 30 years. None better than this.
This is the song i want played at my funeral,
Is it just my imagination or does radio save all the best music for youtube?
I suspect this song was written as an expression of how the man felt after his father died. A beautiful and truthful comment on a lonely future. Treasure the ones you love. You wont have them forever and they wont have you forever either.
It gives me chills that tune. 👍
The love of my life passed away when a forklift driver bumped the crane he was on and i can't carry on without you my handsome 💖 Patricia
Hope you're carrying on 😢
Simply a great song. 🙏
This song and video has stayed with me for over 20 years, and yet this is the first time I have seen it in almost that long, but the images were so memorable, the beauty of this song so poetic and so musically artiistic that it stayed in my mind, able to be called up at anytime.

RIP Guy Clark!! man this is sad
RIP Guy Clark
That must be the best song I have ever listened to
Now this is THE quintessential Rodney Crowell and I learning to long for even more of.
Extra points for the alter ego character in the video.
The great songwriter Guy Clark plays Rodney's cigarette-bumming buddy in the video.
I remember havin this recorded on CountryClips hosted by Shotgun Red on VHS back in the 90s as a kid. One of my favorite country music videos ever
Nice video, so true that you can drive across the open lands of New Mexico and still find A Sonic Drive Inn
Simply one of the great artists who never gets his full recognition.
Neither did guy clark. 2 legends in the same video
You can't ignore /his man's talent.His songs say so much about him. It also is so much likemylife IRELATE TO CERTAIN O BECAUSE OF THE WORDS THAT ARE; BEING USE D.==RODNEYS TELL A STORY ABOUT SOMEONE'S LIFE! HE SINGS WITH HIS ❤💙
Never heard this. It’s awesome.
Rodney is the best at what he does, beautiful songs!!!
We all had that friend that was always bumming a cigarette.

Best of luck to you with kicking the habit too! We can do it! 👍
I never smoked--I think it's a filthy habit. It's killed way too many people--Eddie Van Halen and Patrick Swayze, for example.😢
A beautiful beautiful song. Love you Rodney. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸. I lived in Taos, NM. A town of its own
a top fave video and song, Guy Clark in this video is great, he will be missed.
Can not think of a song that better describes me. Thank you Rodney
And Guy Clark. Sorry
My favorite singer songwriter. Even now I listen to his new work which is great.
Great song
I sees lots a people sayin they hear "Buddy Holly" infuenzes in Rodney.... but I hear more Roy Orbison.... maybe I'm nutz, maybe I'm nutz.
I feel Roy orbison.
I feel Roy Orbison myself
I grew up on calypso and soca, but lived for the hour or two they played country music each day-Rodney Crowell keeps me LOVING country!
well my friend, I left my family and friends for Wyoming and do not regret it. In fact, I am going to be able to see Rodney Crowell on the mountain in Casper in August!
This guy is amazing !!
Great to see Guy, im so glad ive got to see him Live!
Rodney Crowell sure is a cutie-pie.😊
One of the best
❤❤❤❤❤
I love the video
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your music Mr. Crowell. Beautiful!
As sad as it is I know this is how it will be with me and my father. My wife Tonya Harding and I Love this song. Keep it going Rodney!
The ice skater?
Why would you have to make a point of saying who your wife is who cares
Rodney's voice is so awesome
Amazing...just so real.
songs come and go but this one is forever
best first line of a song ever
I love this song.. as it fades off into lonesome highway
What a great voice. In his 70's and he can still sing today. Thanks for all you've given us! I'll see you at the Birchmere tomorrow night. can't wait.
this guy should have been a crossover hit, he was too good for country music radio
One of the nicer country voices and some of the better lyrics.
I had a friend who loved this song sadly this song was playing when passed away
I've been there - where the four winds blow down that long highway - I had fun.
ok. I started listening to my own music in 1991 at the age of 12. I switched over to Country in 1996 at 17 (if was very uncool to claim country but I didn't care!) anyways Rodney is before my time.

Wow, this song is so awesome. I never had the chance to see the video before. Beautiful. I love this song. Wore it out in the 90’s...
His voice is so I don't know the word.
What do you admire most about Rodney
Thanks Rodney, I needed this.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sublime, cette chanson , l'un de mes chanteurs de country music préféré, la grande classe !
Super great all of it. The voice the video the lyrics the music!
Hey Rodney....we met in 2006 at the Mystic Theater in Petaluma and I'm now living up in Taos at Ken Green's Lodge....he's now 87 and legally blind and says to get you're ass back up here!
Beautiful tune one of my fav. I still remember when it first came out.
great singer,great music

Beautiful song! New favorite old artist!
My favorite Rodney Crowell song/video. Guy Clark was a hoot in this video stealing Rodney's cigs.
Very amazing song once you've come to allow someone to pass from your life onto something better.
He's the best
I still love this song. It's the story of my life...
I love sthis song since 1989, as I was riding a long and lonesome highway in Arizona. Great performance! Thank you for this amazing song!
I heard this song in 1990 I was a sophomore in HS. It instantly became my favorite song at the time and all thru the years it is still my all time favorite song.
Wrangler Jacket. Good Song my friend.
Classic!
This is precious to me. I hope that Rodney doesn't try to disown or revise it the way he did Shame On The Moon. (Hi, Rod.)
Great video and any video with Guy playfully messing around with Rodney is absolutely priceless.
Love you rodney,,,,been following your music for years now,and would love to see you live again,,,hope you come to ohio again.
Just Lovely!!!!
WOW!!!!
His look, writing style, even his voice reminds me so much of Mickey Newbury.
