Mr. Kristofferson was truly inspirational for me through my teens and into my 20s. He's one of the greats. I am so grateful that I was old enough to hear this incredible singer/song writer. RIP.
That performance moved me. I'm in that relationship right now.
"" you see the future that could be,,, instead of the frieght train that you thought was coming at you "" now Michael that's a good line ????????????
When you say IT'S SSUCH A GREAT SONG… OH YEH IT REALLY IS,,, ????
I'm 72 now and 1972 I played his albums all the time.. Gosh we're has the time gone.. How did we get this old,,,, loosing people right left and centre now…. Well heaven waits for us and what a pop concert that will be one day ❤️????❤️
Most of the classics that live beyond time are 3 chord charlies.
I saw him live in Sweden a couple of years back and you could tell he was’nt in shape to play, he even excused himself beforehand. He did the songs the best he could but the people I were with left in disappointment and said some bad things. This lives with me because to me he is a genius and a legend and I just wish we could have seen him in his prime. I love you Kris and A Sunday Morning Coming Down surely is one of the greatest songs ever written, along with many others you wrote and performed. ❤️
May he rest easy and let us thank for his music! It hits me really hard.????????????
My favourite line of Kris is:
Freedom is just another word for nothing left to loose.
But there are so many more. I love his writing and his music much! He'll be missed!
Willie is now the last leaf on the tree.????
Line after linen after line.
He was a Rhodes Scholar! Mind blown.
He seemed like the perfect man, great songwriter, Oxford scholar, award winning actor, deep voice and brutally handsome.
Master of the simple design
Thanks, Michael, for bringing this forward! I do not remember the intricate harmonies that this song had until I heard this version! Kris was truly a blessing to the musical industry…
A great loss to us all.????
Thanks Michael, great song always played it , you can play it as an absolute beginner guitarist or vocalist. Getting it rigth and bringing across the emotion comes with more skill and mostly more life experience…just like any Kristofferson song. The man is a legend.
Simple music with profound poetry woven in. Kristofferson and Dylan. Nobody else comes close.
Kris's songs have been with me from his beginning when I was a teenager. Thanks m'dear. Happy Trails.
Kris's song writing ability was so natural and real! Will we have any more like him?? I'm not sure we will!!????
RIP to a legend. ❤ You will be missed friend. Thank you, Michael.
There will never be another Kris Kristofferson in my lifetime. Can’t believe he’s gone.
Kristofferson was gifted in so many ways. We were lucky to have him.
????
Darby's Castle, Casey's Last Ride, and of course Bobby McGee
One of my all time favs. fantastic
Is his guitar tuned to D Michael or is just using D shapes on the neck?
Kris is a Rhodes Scholar. Not something that easily earned. One of his many pluses.
Genius.
Hi You R the best. Greatings from Poland.
What kind of Taylor is that?
I'm watching this with my missus and I just told her if she goes before me, I'm playing this at her funeral.
Kris – great songwriter and lyrcists.
RIP Kris.
Speaking of Kris Kristofferson, love to hear your take on The Lonely Night. Moby, Mark Lanegan, Kris Kristofferson. I couldn't find a live version. The official https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcLB3vp5TCI
I could never really get on board with Kris Kristofferson‘s music, I never cared for the way he sang. He always sounded a little out of key to me, but he certainly wrote some good songs for other people to sing. I actually liked him as an actor better than asinger songwriter. Rest in peace brother.
Can someone educate me on how this sort of review/react videos/channels dont face copyright issues? Or flagging issues?
i never could have imagined that i would feel as sad as i do for a man that i never even met. i first remember seeing kris as the rubber duck in the movie convoy. i come from a family of truck drivers and i remember watching the movie with my dad when i was a child back in the 90s i must have seen that movie well over 100 times in my 31 years of life. but i discovered kris as a singer and songwriter about the time i turned 14 when i discovered the highwaymen. i mean i already knew who they all were as solo artists but it was only then when i really started to realize just what a special talent kris was and i was hooked ever since. since that time i probably listened to every song and every variation of anything that kris ever wrote and sung. i finally got to see him perform in person back in 2018. he performed with merle's band at the FM Kirby Center in Wilkes Barre Pennsylvania. i was so captivated by him and his performance that night. that concert will go down as one of the top 3 best concerts that i ever saw. he was an amazing person.. i have been dabbling a little bit over the past few years learning to play guitar and i figured what better way to honor a great man and a true legend than learning one of his songs.. RIP Kris
I suppose there are thousands of great songs, but Kris Kristofferson gave us some of the very best.
The body of work , the legacy, and the interviews this man left to the world are incredibly priceless. I wish peace for his family, bless you all ❤ as for the song, few if any have got that one note just right !
One of my favourites. Xx
He will be greatly missed. I don't want to "blanket statement" and ALL the music these days is horrible, but you really have to go out of your way and find this kind of talent. Just great lyrics, singing, harmonies, and instrumentation that's not overpowering everything. Keep them coming Michael! ✌️
