I am still listening to this song in 2024. I love Gene Watson in the business.

I am still listening to this in 2024 love it

Those that posted thumbs down don't know true Country music. Gene is one of the greatest singers I have heard!

This is real country music

My dad loved this song he wanted played at his funeral he died September 9th 2022 I had to listen to it today with tears my eyes I love you dad

If I could just give Gene Watson and this song a "Thumbs Up" every time I listen to it, the world would run out of numbers !!!!

13 years and 12 million views and still bringing people to tears. Legend.

I just totally love this song. He is just one of the best. I miss this kind of country music. Not 2024 music. What has happened to the so called country of today.

The country music GREATNESS on that stage was incomparable, todays crap country music will never be one tenth as GOOD as the TRUE artist that gathered there just having fun and singing songs , its pure GOLD in my opinion. Thanks to who ever took the time to make this video .

I have drank a many beer listening and singing along with Gene , my God what happened to music in 2024 ? Tears are welling up my eyes

Much better than 2024 country music love this song heart felt ❤❤❤❤

Absolutely no better real country singer than Gene Watson. He is outstanding with every song he sings. Makes you feel as though you are living with the song he is singing or have heartbreaking memories from the song he is singing. No one can sing a tear jerking song better than Gene Watson. If he isn't in the Country Music Hall of Fame then no one should be.

THERE WILL NEVER BE A REPLACEMENT FOR THESE SINGER'S,AND WE ALL HAVE BEEN SO BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN AROUND TO SEE AND HEAR THE HISTORY THAT HAS BEEN OUR PLEASURE.

I used to sing with Gene's brother Jessie at my Uncle's house and at church. Imagine my surprise when I got to meet Gene Watson and sing with him in his garage. Jessie and my Uncle wanted him to here me sing a song. He liked the song so much, he asked me to teach it to him. That was when he lived in Houston Texas. Years later a friend took me to see him in concert and he remembered me.😊

Gene Watson is one of the greats. We saw him , he was young and we were young at Mama's country showplace on Covington Highway near Decatur Georgia and became immediate fans. We are nearing 80 and still enjoy his music. Country music is no longer country music. Long live the 60's--70's--80's.

My daddy had this played at his funeral on December 31,2020 and his name is Joseph he went to see Jesus there is nothing better than this song and seeing our father Jesus amen❤😂😢😢🎉🎉🎉

That ladies and gentlemen, is country music.

My hubby of 43 years died Jan 7, 2024 and he requested this song ahead of time! I had it played at his service! ❤❤❤

He was inducted to hall fame this year. VERY WELL DESERVED

Absolutely timeless !! True country music !!

This is one of the greatest songs ever written

Before I have my Farewell Party , I would love to see him just one Time .❤️

Look at them all singing along with Gene. They love him and love to hear him Sing.

My husband and I danced to this until 2008. He told me this was what he wanted at his farewell party. His family chose otherwise but I still listen to it. Miss him. Love this song from my soul ❤

My dad insisted this song be played at his funeral...he passed Feb 2021 and I thank you for keeping this song up, as I come by regularly and listen with my dad. I love you dad - until we meet again!

My sister n law traveled many places to see gene Watson and loved his music she passed 9/3/22😂

Gene Watson has some of the best songs and the beautiful voice⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is just the greatest. No production just plain TALENT! Something country is lacking in anymore!

Gene doesn't get near the recognition he deserves.

One GrEAT song for the ages

He is absolutely the best this song is so beautiful ❤️

I love Gene Watson and Farewell Party.

Wow!!! That man can sing....Gene Watson....one of the all time greats... I love him and his golden voice.

This is REAL country! Look at all the legends in the room......the best!!

Gene Watson will someday be recognized as one of the greatest singers of all time, right up there with Merle, George, Willie, and Johnny, Waylon, and a few legendary others . You can play this man's songs for hours and not get tired of listening to him. He always leaves us wanting more ...... Thank you for continuing, Mr. Watson ....

That my friends is true country music from a living legend!!❤

If it ain't country, it ain't music and it doesn't get any better than this

This is one all time favorite song yes I am a fan

I ALWAYS get chills at the high note at the end. Good "country" song here. Can't get better than this

Still don't understand why Gene Watson is not in the Country Music Hall of Fame! He deserves it!

A beautiful song, well sung, by a great singer Gene Watson!!!

Whenever I listen to song I miss my brother may his soul rest in peace I love you brent goliath 😢

He has such a great vocal range it is unbelievable. He holds a note like Pavarotti. I love all his songs. I know this was 14 years ago and some here are now gone but they too, were rapt by his performance. Keep them coming Gene.

I Love This Song. Shirley Clark North Carolina. God Bless

This is the best rendition of this song. He did this sitting down and not in a studio. Superb!!

I met Mr Watson in 1988 he was a great friend thank you Mr Watson all's the music

This song was played at a friend's funeral and everyone was crying.. it's the most touching song ever song What a voice Love it

Love Gene ❤️ This one makes my eyes run.😥

Gene simply is one of the best voices ever in country music. Even the greats today cannot match this quality of voice.

I love you songs. Keep going. I love your videos. God Bless you. Betty

He nailed it!

One of my all time favorites, too !!! I lost my husband September 5, 2021 - 56 years together- so I cry every time I hear it!!!

Definitely should have this man in the country music hall of fame as a great singer

I seen Gene Watson in Springfield Missouri back in time with my late Husband. Love to hear Gene swinging 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤Hope he is still living 🙏

This man needs to be in the Country Music Hall of Fame

He is definitely a winner in my book. None other like him!!! A style all his own! Love all of his songs!!!

I LOVE LISTENING TO GENE WESTON MUSIC.

We saw him about a month ago in East Texas and as always, he puts on a superb show. He'll be 80 on October 11th and he sounds exactly the same as this video. He has an absolutely amazing voice! It's such a crying shame that he's been SO underrated by Nashville! Nothing fancy, just honesty and integrity with style and class. One thing that Nashville is definitely lacking today . He should have been in the CM Hall of Fame YEARS ago. Such a fantastic singer! It's proven that his music has transcended the test of time!

Beautiful song, farewell party, to gene❤

An absolute master of his craft.

As good a voice as there has ever been in country music.

I love the old country music!! I'm 76 but I know what good music sounds like.

Great singer.Thank you 💕

Gene Watson is the best country Artist that exists today. He remains true to country music. I love to listen to him 24/7. Never get tired of hearing him. Yes I'm starting struck but I'm never gonna change. Love this man And his Music.

Older he gets the better he gets!!!

My father in this law played this song all the time. Id give the world to set and have one more beer with him. Love and miss you herb

Love his music. I saw him in concert a few years ago. He had a great show

I went to a club in Houston called The Golden Stallion with my mother to see him in person. Reminds me of my mom now. She,s gone to heaven now.

I realize now why my older brother liked this song, he passed in January at 69 in Georgia , he still loved his wife and wanted her back more than I ever thought but it didn't happen, he passed alone in a rehabilitation facility, he thought he'd make it home but his heart and lungs were too far gone. Hope to have a memorial for him and play this song soon. Rip Brother I think of you every day and regret not coming to Georgia to be with you, you were my hero and I was yours. See you soon, Little Brother

I am amazed at how much Genes live performance sounds exactly like his original recording!

I dearly love Gene. He's still one if the best looking men alive. I hopeing to make his show in Branson More. On Nov.8 2021. It's on my bucket list . I'm pray I can see him one last time and enjoy his Beautiful voice.

Holy Cow, an All Star lineup on that video. Gene Watson hits a home run every time he sings that song!

My Mommie wanted this played at her funeral i love you momma im playing this for you your favorite song Fronie Collins 2 28 _2021 ,, today is Aug 13 th 2023 i love you my beautiful angel ✝️🌹🌟🙏❤️

I remember this song from my cousin Dusty's black Ford pick up he played farewell party on his 8 track I'm so glad you are still here !;

I have a 2 year old Great Grandson that I have sang this song to since he was a newborn. He Loves it and now he turns 3 in January and he sings it to me only he sings I'll be sad when you're gone. Melts my heart but that's Our song. What beautiful Memories this song has for both of us.

NAILED IT!! It doesn't get any better than this..Thanks Gene for some great country music, could listen to you sing all day long....

How in the Hell can there be a Hall of Fame without him.

One of my absolute favorites!!!! This man has such an incredible voice.

LOVE u so much Mr Watson ur my Farite Singer U made this. Song40 Yrs ago love u then NM ppl love Betty now

We played this at my fans burial it was so neat. I miss him dearly he passed on May 11 2023. I play this song very often and year up God I miss him

He did it sitting down. He never flinched. ( No special effects needed ) Pure vocal talent. I so miss real country radio like this !!!!

I love the way they reacted when he sang the "big note" at the end. And he held it all the way to the end - after all these years, he held that note. That's hard to do, and keep it on pitch, and he did it sitting down!!

My husband passed 30years ago that night after everyone left the house l turned on the radio an this song on l had cried tell them but still love the son

Gene Watson is one of the greatest Country singers of all time...

One of the best singers of all time!
