This song is about a man for whom the rodeo is life, and he will sacrifice everything to maintain that life... George has a few songs in this theme, for example, "I Can Still Make Cheyenne"

The only other minor difference is sometimes fiddles have a slightly flatter bridge (part near the bottom that holds the strings up) to aid in the chords that fiddle-style players do.

Not neccesarily, i played viola growing up and that was a fiddle as well. But for all intents and purposes a violin and fiddle are the same thing.

It's not about losing everything in San Antonio and starting over. It's about a rodeo rider who travels town to town with nothing but his freedom.

Oh man. Alan Jackson is a treat. "Livin On Love" "Gone Country" "Summertime Blues" "Chattahoochie" "Chasin' that Neon Rainbow" you're not going to go wrong checking out his material.

Alan Jackson's "Remember When" will hit you in all the "feels." It's just him sitting on a stool, playing, singing and as he does there are videos and pictures of him, his wife Denise etc playing on a screen behind him. I confess, I've never been able to listen to it without crying.

It must be love by Alan Jackson is also a good song from him

Two of country’s finest. Alan Jackson and George Strait, acknowledged by many as king of country music. This is one of the quintessential rodeo songs.

The song is about the life on the rodeo trail. George's song. This is a single time doing it together.Alan is 6'4

San Antonio here! Mr. George is one of the nicest guys you'd want to meet. I've bumped into him many times. Down here we just call him "King George" (and watch him blush still to this day). Alan Jackson is incredible. This was the first song I ever 2stepped to. So, to be clear, the difference between a violin and a fiddle is a violin has strings and a fiddle has strangs!. You wanna see awesome fiddle playin' watch Mr. Charlie with The Charlie Daniels Band perform their song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia". Yes, there is a song called "If You're Gonna Play in Texas, You Gotta Have a Fiddle in the Band" sung by Alabama.

Alan Jackson's song Remember When is one of the best songs ever written a must listen.

The only difference between a violin and a fiddle? A violin has strings, a fiddle has strangs.. Seriously, they are the same instruments, the difference is the kind of music that is played on them.

Remember When by mr Alan Jackson is amazing 🎵🎶

Alan Jackson is a amazing singer with a lot of his own songs.

Two songs by Alan Jackson that you must listen to are Where Were You When thé World Stopped Turning, a tribute to 9/11. Thé other is It’s Midnight in Montgomery, a tribute to the late Hank Williams, Sr. Once you have heard those two songs, you will be an Alan Jackson fan for life. However, please get the video versions, not the studio version or a live performance. You want the videos in these; they help tell the stories.

My dad is an old 80s rocker, but both of my parents loved the old country music. Alan Jackson's "Chasin that Neon Rainbow" is one of the first SONGS I ever listened to.

both of them are kings of country. midnight in montgomery by alan jackson and george's I can still make Cheyenne are other good emotional ones (another rodeo in Cheyenne like the one in Amarillo). Thanks for looking into country, not enough people do. The 80's and 90's country is admittedly all I was allowed to listen to, but it holds a special place. Check out She Thinks His Name Was John, or any of Reba's. you do tend to like story/character songs :)

For George Strait.. Chill of an Early Fall is one of his best, but it always seems to get overlooked.

You might remember Alan singing “I’m crazy about a Ford truck”. It was Ford’s jingle for last of the 80’s and most of the 90’s. The song was in reference to a Mercury originally. They were still putting the Mercury badge on fords in Canada. Toby Keith picked up the Ford jingle for a bit in the early 2000’s. My uncle was at a roping once with King George. Nothing like 300 cowboys paying $75 to join the round robin. Winner takes 1/2 of the money home.

These two are amongst my favorite Country artist and the difference between a fiddle and a violin is there is no difference it just depends on what kind of music you’re playing with it

Exactly! When played in a symphony orchestra, it's called a violin. When played in Country or Bluegrass music it's a fiddle.

Also, Alan Jackson is a country star with many hits on his own. I recommend “Remember When”, the video.

One of my favorites of King George. He's the real deal. A working cowboy and also rides cutting horses. He singing about a Rodeo man. Spend their lives going from rodeo to rodeo. This is one of my (and my daughter's) favorite songs. We used to commute together and our biggest pet peeve, was when the dj would cut off the fiddle part at the end. George Strait has at least 60 number on songs. If it's country music - it's a fiddle. Yes, Daddy Long Legs is quite tall and a legend in his own right. Where were you when the world stopped turning was written and performed right after 9/11. I couldn't tell you my favorite George Strait song, but am kind of partial to "Troubador".

The Kings of Country Music. The two have done many songs together. Alan Jackson is best known for his touching "Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning." Also, Alan, George and Jimmy Buffett did a concert together in Dallas and brought down the house. There's an album that recorded it live and I love playing it. Jimmy and Alan are famous for "Five O'Clock Somewhere".

The lyrics are about the rodeo life. Alan Jackson is 6' 4" and George Strait is about 5' 10". A fiddle and a violin are the same instrument. It's about how it's played.

George Straight: "Check Yes Or No" "The Chair" Alan Jackson: "Midnight in Montgomery" "Where were You" "Gone Country" Basically these are two great artists and I doubt you could find a bad song by either. Thanks for the reaction. Does anyone know if this is from George's retirement concert?

George is the King of Country!! One of my favorite s from the beginning!

I love when two country singers come together like this of George & Alan.

As already said George is a true Cowboy and King of Country!! Great reaction!! Need more George!!

The texture of George Strait’s voice…..pure silk.

In Country music it’s a fiddle. It’s the same instrument it’s just the way they play it.

I was born and raised near Amarillo. Lived there over 30 years. I have seen George and Alan each live over five times. They are treasures! I especially love George’s “Ace in the Hole” band. Gorgeous music! Both are getting up in years, as I am. Rodeo is a lifestyle there in Texas.

Only country song I have ever loved. Beautiful .♥️

Alan Jackson is most definitely one of the best around. Great country singer and a really good person.

They are both great country singers, love that great song, 👏👏🎶🎼🎵🤠🤠🎸🎤🎸👏👏💜💜2022

By Alan Jackson, check out "Where were you when the world stopped turning", and "Remember when."

George Strait is the king of country! No one does it better!

Two of country music’s best artists EVER. Both definitely in the top ten of all time in my opinion.

George strait is hands down the king of country👑🤴🥇🏆

2 absolute Gods in country music, the King of country himself and Alan FN Jackson

Love these guys...pure country

Two Superstars of Country!!

King George the king of country music

HOME, DRIVE AND WHERE WHERE YOU by Alan Jackson are incredible.

This is my favorite George Strait song

I love both of these guys so much! Alan Jackson’s song Remember When is absolutely amazing.

Just the life of a cowboy, my friend. George could sing a Chinese phone book and you’d be mesmerized. Best song ever!

This is a George strait song and its his absolutely favourite song he sings Amarillo by morning

I chase the rodeo circuit with my daughter who is quite the barrel racer and drill team rider, I can so relate to this song, Amarillo today and wherever tomorrow 🤠

You can’t go wrong with either one of these guys. King George and Alan are two of the only real country artists left ❤️

When someone says cowboy George Strait was and still is the first person I think of, got to see him live once in my early 20's I'm 46 now and he still brings it when he performs, I watched him just off stage between sets with a rocking chair and a huge cooler, my friends and I had the perfect angle where we could count how many beers he drank between sets, he killed 13 budweisers and we figured he was gonna fall down on his next set, nope he never missed a beat or a cord we watched him killing beer each time someone else would sing and he did this for hours still sounded amazing, Allan Jackson on the other hand worked construction with my father in Carrollton Georgia before he made the big time and my dad said he would play the guitar and sing for the workers on break and some would laugh at him and tell him to keep his day job, he's country music royalty now and nobody's laughing now 😃

One of my all time favorite songs period! These 2 together just makes it even better

Agree, they both are awesome.

Two of the top male country music vocalists of all time!!!!

You will enjoy anything by Alan Jackson. Go for it.

Love Alan Jackson. They are good friends

Not George's life but common genre for Country music in those fabulous years, cowboy life. And then - Alan Jackson, oh my heart! 2 of the greatest! And - Alan is really tall!

I get teary eyes at this song because Daddy and I used to square dance to this song

George strait puts on a great show...

Alan Jackson was quoting the Alabama (band) song "Fiddle in the Band". George Straight, Alan Jackson, Alabama all ruled country music air waves in the 90's, they are all fantastic! Please react to more of all of them. I know you love Patsy Cline, in the song "Fiddle in the Band" they reference other country songs like "Faded Love" by Patsy Cline.

these are 2 of the few country singers I actually like

Amarillo by Morning is one of the best country songs in my humble opinion. “I ain’t got a dime but what I got is mine. I ain’t rich but lord I’m free” is a brilliant line. Not to mention that fiddle in the background

It’s a classic George Strait song. Alan Jackson just joined him for this live show.

I think anything wud work they are both legends from there day 👍 and forever will be

“If you’re going to play in Texas you’ve got to ha a fiddle in the band” is a lyric from Alabama from their “Roll on” album released in 1984.

Alan one of the best.

Goddamn is he talented

I once heard an old fiddle player say, the difference between a fiddle and a violin is, a violin is carried in a case and a fiddle is carried in a sack. Fiddle is just what country people call the instrument.

Two Legends!

Two legends..

Rodeo dude. Rodeo cowboys live for 8 seconds. They give it all. It’s the biggish rush ever. 8 seconds on the back of a bucking bull is unreal. Been there

You can't go wrong with King George! Over 50 number 1 songs.

Yep, it's about the life of a traveling rodeo cowboy. There was little money in it, but the writer describes the freedom of living the life that he wants to live. He lost his wife and girlfriend 'cause they weren't going to stick with him living the lifestyle that he wants to live. He chose his traveling lifestyle over domestic bliss!

You will LOVE Alan Jackson the older I get!

Anything by George Strait or Alan Jackson is gonna be good. I recommend George’s “carrying your love with me” “I can still make Cheyenne” “baby blue” and Alan’s “small town southern man” “chasin that neon rainbow”

George actually worked the rodeo circuit and clips in the official video are clops of him riding, roping etc. I think his son is also working the rodeo circuit too.

When it comes to country music, George is known as the King (not to take away from Elvis)...he arrived in the early 80s and built a strong following, with dozens of classic hits. His songs create everlasting memories. His mellow and consistent tone is adored by many millions...and he still tours to this day. The only thing that bothered me is that he doesn't move on stage...he is a statue. The women fell over themselves to hear him sing.

Shalom brother and family. Now you know how to choose the most beautiful choices of songs.

George Strait is my ideal man

This song was originally written and performed by Chris Ledoux. He was a professional bull rider and country artist who wrote a lot of his songs about being on the road. Check out his song " The Hat".

My absolute favorite by Alan Jackson is "midnight in Montgomery" I can sing it Acapella love it. Anything by George straight is amazing

The difference between a Violin and a Fiddle is the way you fiddle with them. Okay, that’s the joke. Years ago, Itzhak Perlman was part of a show and after playing a classical violin piece he said that he was going to do a magic trick and turn his violin into a fiddle. He passed it behind his back and and brought it out to play a lively country music piece. They are the same instrument, just different techniques. Especially when you refer to it as a fiddle.

Alan Jackson is one of country musics greatest singers. Check out "The Older I Get"

When Alan Jackson said " if your gonna play in Texas ya gotta have a fiddle in the band" he was giving a Nod to the group Alabama... they have a song "If Your Gonna Play In Texas Ya Gotta Have A Fiddle In The Band."

True king George and a real cowboy! im a Texas girl.

George sung this song in the early 80s. I was in Mesquite then, and I knew some bull riders. They were not big, and they were bow legged, but they were tough as nails.

George Strait competed in the calf roping event at the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo for many years.

Alan Jackson is an amazing singer also!

Two living legends. Real. Classic. Country music. Perfection! And that fiddle ❤

The difference between a violin and a fiddle is genre. If it's country or bluegrass it's a fiddle. And the song is filled with rodeo references. He's following the circuit.

I just moved to Santa Fe, TX and was VERY amused that he mentioned it lol! I'm not a country listener

Two legends man

Another George & Alan song that's very strong "Murder on Music Row."

Ah, George! Still the best!

Such a classic!!!!!! Alan is amazing in all he does, writes, music, writes notes, and sings! Not many can do all 3!!!!!!

George Strait He's a member of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. George Strait doesn't just sing about being a cowboy, he lives the life. ... Strait and his brother Buddy started the George Strait Team Roping Classic competition. George recorded this song. George and Allen one of the few singers who sing the old country songs not the new style. As George Jones sang whose gonna sing these songs when they're gone. Hope Allen is doing ok after announcing his muscular disease. Gonna have to give up tour. A violin has strings and fiddle has strangs.

Two of Country's best singing about the life of a rodeo rider. Drifting from one rodeo to another looking for the buckle of the Champion Bronc rider. BTW: the towns mentioned are all in Texas.

He's from San Marcos, TX. Where he started out in San Marcos was across the street from where I worked. He's still happily married to wife Norma. He lost his daughter at 13 by car accident. He also has a son. One of my sorority sisters was best friends with his daughter. He danced Maddie around their kitchen one time. He's a great guy.

Troubadour is actually a song where he reflects on his musical career

My Mom is 1 year older than George Strait and for as long as I've lived she has been basically Gaga over him. From Independence KS. Medium small city in SE of state. We had a yearly festival and George played the live show the same year this song put him on the national radar for the first time. Since that night shes been hooked lol. She met and married my Dad not long after. My dad is genius. He quickly realized she was a fan girl for a celebrity, and the chances of her ever leaving him for George were fairly slim. So every few years, no matter where George was touring. In town or across the country. He would take her on a suprise vacation to something fun (national parks, the bigger bullriding competitions, a cruise) and a George Strait concert to top it off. Happily married for 48 years. I asked Dad once if he liked George Strait. He said "Well, he's got a good voice, and he's an AMAZING get out of jail free card with your Mom so.........."

King George

I wish George Straights voice could be made into fabric, because I'd love a bathrobe made of it.
