Just a guitar, couple of amps and one hell of a voice. 100% talent.

Said perfectly

My Step grandfather died about 20 years ago. He was a rambling old man who rarely talked about his past. We never really paid him much attention. After he died, we went through his things. 3 purple hearts, and 2 silver stars. I wish he was here now. He had stories that we tried to piece together. He was a hero. Fed the orphans. Protected his men. Loved the Lord. Bless you, Herbert Brasher. You don't know what you've got, until it's gone.

The day my grandpa died my family and I was there for him when he passed. Later that evening on the way back home, this song played on the radio and I wept. That was seven years ago and I still weep when I hear this song like it was all just yesterday. The universe has a way of giving you what you need when you need it.

Logged in just to reply & like this comment. I had a similar experience with song and my grandfather who passed away in 2017, also a WW2 vet. What an incredible song. Thank the Good Lord for our the courage of our grandfathers - can’t even imagine what it must have felt like (and what it feels like even now) to leave home to go halfway across the world to defend your country.

I cried the second I heard the first line. My 92 yo Mama is huge on photos and memories…and my would be 101 yo Dad was a heavy machine gunner in the Battle of the Bulge..WWII Purple Heart shot 2x once thru neck one side to the other. We are LUCKY to have the greatest generation EVER!!!! All in these black n white memories that are in color!!!

Without a doubt, this is one of the best songs ever written. Thanks Mr. Johnson for this amazing gem!!

This is a song that is the soul of what our country should be and used to be. I don't care what genre of music you like. If you listen to the story told in this song, this sums up what a real man and a life well lived is all about. I pray that when the good lord calls me home, I am listening to this song.

Everytime I hear this song I get teary eyed, thinking of all the men and women that have and had fought so unselfishly for our country, especially my dad a Vietnam Vet! As well as my Grandfather, WWII. Thank you to all those who have and are serving! Much love to you all and God bless you and your families!!

Absolutely! God blew our American hero’s. We have to get our country. Lots of blood shed for this place

I'm 54 ,My Daddy was in the Navy in WWII. I was the 6th of 7 kids. My Dad rarely talked about the war but I was always the one just me and him when he talked about it. He was stationed in the Philippines..He was on a ship going to Japan when they were ordered to turn sound. That's the same day they dropped the bomb on Hiroshima ..After that conversation .I said Daddy you were in the Navy you don't have any tattoos..He said I was scared of that. Lol..My Dad come from a farm family..Never been to a big city..Oh how I miss that Man..

It's not often you sit and watch a video on youtube and then realise you watched it without moving and with your mouth open. This performance makes that happen. Astonishing performance of a great song.

The most under rated musician/songwriter ever.

The morning my grandfather passed, I put this song on and it brought me comfort. As much as it hurt, I didn’t cry. That was December… That summer, out on the road trucking gravel, I let my mind wander as I often did. Suddenly a memory of him popped in and I thought to myself how great it would be if In Color came on the radio… This was before I had on demand music in the truck. As if someone was listening the DJ announced this song was up next. I fell apart right there. Came to a stop and let it all out… That was 14 years ago. And the memory of that day is still as vivid now as it was then.

THIS IS MY DAD'S LIFE.....HE WAS A TAIL GUNNER ON THE B24'S.....I PRESENTED A BOOK MY DAD WAS IN DURING THE PLOESTI RAIDS....I WAS HOPING TO MEET JAMIE BUT COVID MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE....WHAT A GREAT SONG AND THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE PANCREATIC CANCER FOUNDATION.....MY BROTHER ED JUST PASSED OF PANCREATIC CANCER.

I could listen to him all day. Beautiful

I love Jamey he has a raw unadulterated talent in his voice and acoustics. 🥰

I grew up in Tennessee on country. This is what country needs to get back to. Absolutely fantastic.

I will listen to this song every night of my life. It so reminds me of my Dad and his older brother that were trying to survive the Ozark timberland instead of a cotton farm. They helped keep their family alive through the early 40’s. Miss them and those like them.

Some people are easier to see what gifts from God they are. This man and his talent are two gifts from God thank you for sharing and God bless

Who couldn't like Jamey Johnson?

My favourite version of this song...Absolutely beautiful...Maggie&Pete

Nothing Better than an Acoustical Singer..

I get chills when I hear this version. ❤

I love it... just Jamey and his guitar. This is an awesome performance!

the first time I heard this song a tear came to my eye.

Love this song tells the story of my Daddy and Uncle to a T.Wish I could have been there with them. They were real men .God Bless America and the Veterans who put it all on the line.

I'm an old dude and know country music and this is one of my favorites hands down brother. It has all the ingredients

Will learn his music on the guitar and sing his songs! His music touches my heart!

And if it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just tryin to save each other , ya shoulda seen it in color 🤙

Hands Down one of the best written songs I've heard. I'm a musician|Writer myself and man this is top notch fire . I'm going to Add a vid card to my vid channels for sure . Thanks Jamey Johnson you've shown me that good music writing still does exist. way to speak from the heart!!!!!!!!

@@dana.4230 When I first heard this song a found myself taking a good look at my own writing and the soulful music i offer on my KZread Page- Now I'm told my music has a lot more hear, feel and soul ... I thanks this very man for showing that truth and a sweet melody can be just the thing people need at these confusing times- MUCH LOVE TO EVERYONE WORLD WIDE.

Jamey Johnson writes songs about my life!! I can relate to ALL his music.

The night my dad passed I saw his ghost standing as I rolled that semi out on my way . I'll never forget .

This comes up today..69th anniversary of my grandfather's passing..Thank you

You know music is good when it gives you goosebumps!! This song gives me goosebumps. So impressive that it's just him and his talent making this happen.❤

The voice is the best on the country music 🤠👊🏻

My mother and all my grandparents are passed. Cant listen to this song without thinking about them.

I hope someday before I leave this world that I get to see this man perform! His words words are so heartfelt and real!

LOVE this man! And this song even more. It touches my soul

I stand corrected, when I said all the great ones had all crossed over.

Great singer, great song, perfect performance!

This song reminds me of times when I’ve sat and looked at old b&w pics in the past of my parents and theirs. Hits me deep in the heart EVERY TIME! Beautiful!

God bless you Jamey! Love this man!

I was there and we had just found our seat to take a rest when Jamey started singing this. We were moved to tears

Just wow

This is the most beautiful song. Your voices beyound wonderful. I had not heard you both ever. What a peace inside me I feel. When I die I hope they this at my fureral. I would honored.

Jamie Johnson you are all that.

WOW, love this

Jamey you are the best! Please make more music.

When you can hear a pin drop in the audience, THAT'S when you knowv you're listening to someone and something special.

It doesn't get better than this..every story told can never be 100%...

I miss my Grand pop so much, I can't wait too see him again, Thank you fathet

JESUS CHRIST............. BRAVO ❤❤❤❤❤

Raw talent here... Beautiful song ❤

Glory be to God!!!

This is a truly great song. Gets me every time - and it will stand the test of time.

First time I heard this, it made an immediate impression on me.. I'm amazed that Jamey is not a superstar like Waylon and Merle.. His vocal style and tone is perfect for this style of country music. Good luck FarmAid.

One of the best songs I have ever heard! GOD Bless and GOD Protect you and yours always in Christ Our Lord!!

my pop was a pow in the 2nd ww. thanks for this j

Jamey is the man!!!!!!!
