Whenever Hank was born God gave a little piece of himself to Hank

"My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue. Why don't you love me like you used to do"" Great line.

I like Hank Williams's great country music songs. He is one of the best country boys in America.

I love George Strait. But Hank Sr. is the fucking Beethoven of Country. That hard-ass painful Country music that was more about your heart than your pickup truck. Strait was above all that, but can't compete with Hank Sr.

Many fans remain unaware that Hank wrote much of his material. So talented.. So tragic that he died so young. Will be loved and admired long after I am gone, and as I am now 87, won't be too long before I join Hank. England, February, 2024.

Beautifully done stereo version it's what I've been looking for in the Hank Williams I've already found Hank Williams I'm so lonesome I could cry integrate stereo version 1:31

I became a fan in an odd way. George Thorogood and Linda Ronstadt covered his songs. I just happened to come across an 8-track tape of Hank's greatest hits my Father had stored away. I played it, and that was it. The year: 1983. I was almost 20. (Was in October)

the Red Hot Chili Peppers did a crazy version of this on their very first album.. when I was getting back into their old stuff a few years ago I realised it was a Hank cover and it got me (back into) him as well !

Happy 100th birthday sir. You are missed. 😢

Many of us do declare that this song by Hank was the first rock n roll song recorded. It is my favourite of all his songs and I just love and admire this man so much.

Hank, where are you!!! There'll never be another, NEVER!!

Heard this for the first time watching The Last Picture Show. Loved it ever since!

One of the best country western singers of all time!

There will never be another like him

If Hank only knew how much staying power his music has. Just imagine if he had lived longer. So much more he had to give. We will never know.

Hank Williams had been around a long time and was my dad's musical hero. One day my mom said "yeah he was pretty good but he sang out of his nose" and my dad says "I don't care if he sings out of his b*** he's still the best country artist ever" lol R.I.P. DAD n HANK.

Was my Dad's favourite also. Ours was a musical family. My Dad played guitar & spoons, my uncle played fiddle as well as my grandfather on the violin & my grandmother the piano. Dad was the singer & would sing many of Hank Williams songs. My husband is also a big fan of Hank Williams & old time classic country. All our boys grew up listened to their Dad sing these songs & play guitar. I think it's funny that they all know the words to these old time songs.

Just saw the Hank Williams biopic "I Saw The Light", good movie but sad.

Ladies and Gentlemen,... The KING of country music; Mr Hank Williams.

Can't get enough of The Master!

It's really fun to play Hank Williams songs on the guitar with my buddy, great songs

@@ITILII they should have protected themselves and thusly their talent more. Shooting up can make one forget they just did and that's where overdoses kill. Talented brilliant but very stupid reckless people. They were just beginning to make their way in life. The young think they're indestructible. There's only so much serotonin in our nervous systems and when it's all used up, you're long gone into eternal suicidal depression. Worth the cost? The needle is for terminal cases, to help get through final days of pain. You would not want to become immune. If you need any more than a reefer or beer, something's wrong.

First time I heard this song was back in 1971 while watching the movie "The Last Picture Show." That was my intro to Hank Williams. I had not heard of him until then. I was 17 years of age and I soaked up every song of the guitar.

As kids we use to sing, "my eyes are still curly and my hair is still blue". :P

Old Hank had more talent in his little finger than THE WHOLE MUSIC INDRUSTY today have.

You got that right And I call that real blue eyed Soul 😘

Hank is King of COUNTRY MUSIC !

My Gramps died like three days ago and this song was playing and I remember hearing it from my childhood never knew this song till some one told me I always enjoyed this song

Hank was the best, Anita Carter was the best, they do the most legendary duet in our American country music history, a few months before Hanks passing. Just the best..

This is great Country Music...

The stereo version is so much better than the itunes version, you can actually hear everything and hanks voice doesn't overpower it

Excellent!

yes,,, the great hank williams

Older than his years voice with youthful energy in his music.

WHY DON'T THEY SING LIKE THEY USED TO DO,,,,,GOD THIS STUFF IS HEAD OVER TAIL,,,,

Good ole Hank!!!

Saddest song in the history of the world.

One of my All-Time Favorite songs by the Great Hank Williams. Smokey Binion, Jr.

Sometimes I can't decide which was better, Hank or his Cowboys.

I like the piano in this version. My dad was a Hank Williams fan when I grew up in the early 60's so I got to hear these neat songs. It was only lately that I came to really appreciate the great song writing ability he had and why he is such a legend. I cannot stand the talent mocking buffoonery on the radio today and it has caused me to go back and listen to these old classics with renewed appreciation. Tell you something else--we don't have catchy melodies on the radio today. All they do is spew out notes all over the place and the songs really go nowhere. I just love how he could use 3 simple chords over again but sing amazing melodies over those chords for unique and different songs.Hank is a world class songwriter and performer!
