    I have never seen a more gentle and sensitive couple. Beautiful to watch.
    I will be seeing Willie in July. You will be with me in my heart!

    This song was written by Paul Williams, and is much more than a children's song. You must never give up hope. There was also an incredible version of this song done by Kenny Loggins. Willie Nelson is a very unique singer and puts his own emotions and style in everything that he perorms. I love your reaction as always ❤️.

    WOW!!! Profound!!! I have heard Willie for decades. I have heard this song for decades….I believe I have even seen Willie perform on the Muppet Show. I have never seen this video until today. I was teared up within the first 30 seconds. The profound emotions that this sweetly and simply done video so softly swept over me was as great as such special life events like holding your new baby or grandbaby for the first time, holding the hand of someone you love as they gently pass on, remembering the first time joys as a child or falling in love with the person who understands you so well no words are needed.
    Thank you both. The love of my life and I….a pair of 64 year olds LOVE your reactions. Thank you both for your transparency, genuine responses and sharing your love for each other with us.

    To me this song is a gentle reminder that although we are all different, we all have dreams. The sweet simplicity of the song has always made me teary-eyed! Thank you for this and how did I never hear Willie do this in all of my years!

    The combination of the lyrics, Willie's magnificent voice and phrasing, and the mellow ring of the guitar named Trigger, brings what I can only call a melancholy joy, as contradictory as that may sound.

    I needed this song right now. I'm grieving the loss of someone very near to me and struggling with that loss every day wondering how to go on in the face of my new life reality. "Rainbow Connection" reminds me that life is still beautiful and that the magic may be in the laughter of the children playing, or the many friends and family who gather near. They are my rainbow connection right now. Of course I sobbed through Willie Nelson's singing this song, it brought up memories of the past; but rainbows are also a symbol of beauty and hope for the future.

    I sang this for my brother's wedding, per his bride's kids' request. I didn't know Willie had sung this. I apologized to the guitar accompaniest because I felt my voice was getting 'mature' as I age, and said I felt like I was starting to sound like (then already old) Willie Nelson. He said, "John, always be yourself. But if you can't be yourself, be like Willie Nelson." :)

    I absolutely love this song. It's so simple and beautiful, yet makes you feel nostalgic and bittersweet. I've only heard it sung by Kermit the Frog and even that made me cry. Hearing this version...oh my...Willie Nelson is amazing and he makes this song even better. 💔❤️

    I love the introduction of this video, particularly the two guys on the bench who stop playing and look at one another with a stunned look on their faces. I think I would react the same way if a music icon like Willie Nelson walked past me in the park one day.
    Check out the interview with Paul Williams with The Tennessean about the making of this song.

    I enjoyed watching this one with you! If you look into his album “Red Headed Stranger “ you won’t be disappointed. Released in 1975, the whole album tells a story set in the old Western era of US history. His voice is pretty much the same as it was back then but I can really hear the age in his voice in this video. Hands on the Wheel, was my favorite song when I was young! From “Red Headed Stranger “
