He's the greatest country legend of all time!!!

Yessir as always, when music was music and it really had something to say. Stay safe stay vigilant my friend God bless...

I gotta sing it at my nephew's wedding in two days! My nephew is doing George's part. Dolly and George are both legends. I've decided I'm gonna give it my best!

I do and all my 3 children and grandchildren

2021.. I do..

I still listen 👂🇦🇺 2021 74 years old and still love 💕 real music 🎵, not the garbage that’s played on radio today.

Me

Me also

Me so bad

Me. Miss his so much.

Me🎶🎶 There will NEVER BE ANOTHER George Jones ❤️🙏

I love him every song brings us to a special moment in our lives some happy some bring tears but never the less I wouldn't trade them for nothing from 5 years old to 54 years old every song has a special place. I cried my ass off 10 years ago when I called mom and dad to tell them George Jones died it was like losing a close relative I still miss this man.

DOLLY a legend too...awesome!!!

I cry when he sings & it grieves me that he and Tammy went thru so much sadness. But it’s that sadness that created a huge impact on all of us - the greatest love story ever. If I can still cry today, George did his job.

No One can fill his shoes

RIGHT! He could have been blasted out his mind on that old Rotgut whiskey, sang the fucking Alphabet backward and Still brought tears to the biggest man's eyes lol Simply the Best 👍 Him And Conway Twitty both

We don't have the possum around anymore I miss him

So true. Absolutely beautiful

Saw her with Porter Wagner in the early 70's, they were good. If George had a choice, you could bet he would have loved to do this duet with Tammy

Love george

Agreed if u think about it Kelly there’s really no one else ever in the world to take the place of dolly alam Garth Dwight George Reba once there gone we will only have KZfaq ☹️

@@Seeb396 I have to disagree. I don't think he would have wanted to sing a song (that sounds like he's singing about Nancy) with Tammy.

@@thatgirlthatsme this was a Hank Williams Jr original, they played it well and it fits George too, but many believe it's about Hanks life and his second wife.

I was fortunate to see him twice. Had tickets to see him 2 years ago, about 1 month before his concert and god called him in....

I went to a concert with both George Jones and Conway Twitty in November of 1992. Conway had lost his voice and he said he would come back soon to do another show. So, George sang for almost two hours! Great show. Sadly, Conway died in June of 1993 so I didn't get to see him in concert. I did get to see George about 8 times and loved every one! RIP POSSUM.

Must admit I love the old time country and hill billy music.

Conway twitty for sure but I wasnt old enough anyways. He lives through the internet.

Judy Jackson I har concert tickets when he died. It was sad returning them!

Don't I know u lol

I agree with you. I can listen to George, Dolly, & many others that I grew up with, any time. My Dad's name is also, George, coincidentally & it was him who rubbed off on me as far as who I listen to, etc... He had a lot of 8 Tracks, records of different sizes, cassettes, etc... Of everyone from Flatt & Scruggs who were Dad's bluegrass kings, Hank Williams Sr, Jr & Don who were Dad's country kings (in order they happened), The Rolling Stones who were Dad's Rock N Roll kings, etc.... He had a series of tapes that we always listened to for years called, Super Country 85, 86, 87, 88, & 89, & other tapes like them too. On those albums were Dolly, George, The Judds, Ricky Skaggs, Highway 101, Exile, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Kendalls, Steve Wariner, Mel McDaniel, T.G. Shepard, The Berlin Brothers, The Statler Brothers, Alabama, Rodney Crowell, Rosanne Cash, & tons more. He even had 8 Tracks of Kenny Rogers, Neil Diamond, James Taylor, Merle Haggard, Kitty Wells, Johnny & Jack, Charlie Rich, Charley Pride, & tons more. My Dad is now 68 & has always been a huge music buff. I've always nicknamed him, The Music King & my Mom (Dale) The Movie Queen or The TV Queen. Because if they had a choice & were only allowed 1 thing, Dad would choose a radio & Mom a tv, when I was growing up. I am both of them together but, if I could only pick 1, I find it harder to live without music or a radio than tv. Yet, I love them both & am a huge fan of so many on each, honestly. Thanks to George, Dolly, James Taylor & even Buddy Holly & The Crickets for being my earliest favourites of all, my favourites list kept growing longer & longer. Buddy has always been my Rock N Roll King, George & Dolly my country King & Queen & James Taylor my Folk Music King. So many favourites. Love them all. :)

Same.. the greatest country vocalist of all time

I do jam George my number one

Me too 😊😅!!

You've got quite a list of the people my Dad listened too. I love old Country!

Me today n I cant get enough of the song

Greg everybody should be!

I do, and will till the day I die

Can't stop listening to this. One the saddest songs ever. And so autobiographical.

Fin me.

Hello Wendy, how are you doing?

Hi Wendy hope you’re okay?

Eghh let's just say hes one of the legends, saying he's the greatest wouldn't be fair to guys like Willy Waylon cash and merl

Damn right

Never will someone top this guy ever

Jerry Batten Hank Sr did

Hank Sr is a far better singer

This was quite a long time ago!!

This was 2005 but she still does sound amazing

Age is a mental state

@@RJ1999x exactly

It’s her gift. Love her. She’s such a beautiful person.

Yes always

I love his honesty in his songs

Greatness

True

You're so right!!!!

AGREE

Let's start a petition to get Dolly to go in and lay down some vocal for George Jones songs so they can use technology to create a Duet album of them

Hon,on,titith,k, Guih,,

exactly! Great song, and when Dolly comes in at 1:44, man, she power nails the lyrics with her voice, sounding stronger than I've heard her sound in awhile.

dolly pardon can puts so much feeling and love in the words of a song it gives me the chills and I love it

Colby Betancourt country was good back in the day now country is not good anymore

Colby Betancourt my favorite song by George Jones and dolly parton

Hello Tina, how are you doing?

Alan Dorcas That's no lie. Everything now is Pop crap.

NO ONE has the lungs that George Jones has! one of a kind!! Only one voice like his!!RIP Mr.Jones!

Alan Dorcas George Jones will always b no. 1 without a doubt

Jamey Johnson is good

I agree country sucks right now

Lol.. Vicki you are correct I think about it also,, were you texting from?

I was in Okinawa Japan in 1980 as a Marine on active duty. I bought the new Hank Williams jr record, and this song was on that album. Hank wrote it about himself, long before Alan Jackson covered it. I learned to play and sing it myself, but I can't do it justice like Hank, Alan, George & Dolly!

Hank Jr. Did it first because he wrote it!

Hello how are you doing?

The best for sure!!

George was really good, especially mixing his voice to another person's voice

@@TheStrelko1 Thank you 🙏 on my youtube music video on George Jones and Dolly Parton thank you 🙏 😍

Hi dear how are you doing over there ?

I always enjoy what you share here on KZfaq but we're not friends yet, I will love to be friends with you.. how are you feeling today..?😊🥰

Like music

yeah I agree with u

Maybe so however the part in the lyrics about not showing up for shows is what Jones did he carried the nickname of No Show Jones.

For the record, GEORGE JONES was the first artist offered the song MURDER ON MUSIC ROW, but George Strait and Alan Jackson got wind of it and recorded it before George got a chance to!

Seems almost autobiographical to me.

@@me4untn1 Hank Jr had his fair share of not showing up for shows as well

Asian Jackson wrote it

For the record it was written for, and BY, Hank Jr. I'd bet he would be the FIRST to tell you it's Jr, not Hank Williams(which will always be Sr to some of us). Although that is why it fits Hank Jr better, how is George Jones' name a reminder of a blues man that's already gone(I mean I like this version I just wish he would have changed the line or something as it never made sense to me).

@@thegoldfly1 good point. As good as he sings this song nobody does it like or as full of feeling like Hank Williams jr. Brings a damn tear to my eye every time I hear it

“Fitted?”

Hank Jr wrote this song.

So sweet

Being a lifelong fan of both George & Dolly, I've always found it hard to pick only 1 from their list of contributions in their musical libraries. I've always said it you like Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes, He Stopped Loving Her Today, A Picture of Me Without You, Bartender's Blues (solo or with James Taylor who wrote it), etc.. I'm sure you'll love his songs: I Can Live Forever, which is a great Country Gospel song. I've always found it to be very uplifting & a song of great faith too. It makes people look at death one day in a calm, relaxed, positive kind of way. It's as though the song is saying, hey, don't fear death. You can talk to Jesus, you can see the lord. He describes in a very positive way now curious he is, how looking forward he is, & how sure he is about what's in the next life even though he's still here living this one. It's a really great song. Another Jones classic. As for his song, Choices, it will remind anyone of the song we listen to & are talking about on here, The Blues Man. This too, really blends well in the same category of subjects, as She Loved A Lot In Her Time, He Stopped Loving Her Today, & many others of his that we all know & can feel him saying while singing that this is a biographical song for him. Such great Jones classics for sure.

he loves you !!!

Hello Betty, how are you doing?

Michael Hatfield aand a

Russ South Beloit George the best 👍

But should of worked it out with your true love Tammy!

one of the finest country songs ever "penned" ❤😊

She just belts it out like no one else can

Great to see another broaden their horizons music-wise. If you love George you'll love Boxcar Willie, Ernest Tubb, Roy Acuff who was 1 of George's heroes, Merle Haggard who was George's favourite male singer & as far as I'm concerned was his best male duet partner too. Heading them sing Yesterdays Wine for instance that my Dad played too many times to count, was 1 of George & Merle's best songs, period. It should be in the hall of fame as 1 of the best duets, ever. It's a classic. When Alan Jackson did A Good Year For The Roses with George, that too, was another great Jones duet. So many to choose from & all of these & many others are on my lifelong list of favourite songs. If you love Dolly, you'll love the Honky Tonk Angels album. That was the album that I nicknamed, The 3 Queens of Country Music Album. Dolly was my queen, & my Mom loved Tammy & Dad really liked Loretta a lot & listened to all 3 of them & many others too. I used to say growing up, it would be amazing to hear the 3 of them get together like that, & when I was in my 20s & they did, I was blown away just as I knew I would be if I ever heard them together. They were legendary together. just as Dolly also was with Linda Ronstadt, & Emmylou Harris for their TRIO 1 & 2 albums. All for the hall of fame in my book. They should have all been inducted as the trio groups, just as they were solo because both of these trio groups are as country as you'll ever get for all women groups. As we all said & know too. Dolly can blend her voice with pretty much anyone of any style. One of the best singers, songwriters, entertainers, actresses, comedians, hosts, etc.. of all time. I've always loved all of her work. A lifelong fan of here always.

Hey dear how are you doing over there ?

Margie Knight i l love ir.

How are you doing today

How are you doing today

No one can take the place of George Jones. He was a legend sent down from heaven to give us what no one else could do. He is now back in heaven with his mom and daddy and Tammy and the real country artist singing down on us. RIP legends

My dad never told me of George but I knew of Dolly. She was his favorite........

Hi Joyce hope you’re okay?
