I had the privilege and honor to be in the same arena as Chris in Oklahoma. He was riding the horses and I was on the bulls. Didn’t really know him back then but I miss him today. I’m well into my 60s now and my body don’t work like it used to. But his songs and the memories will live on.
You can always tell the singers that wrote stories from their lives vs the generic tracks. Billy Joe Shaver was another singer/songwriter that lived the songs he made.
Hi everyone, I'm from Panama born and raised but being in raised in a farm with cowboys and rodeo, when I listened to Chris Ledoux became my favorite country singer, last week I went to his son's country concert and I was so moved how similar is to his dad, Chris ledoux you are still alive in the life of every real country fan. You raised a great man which is Ned ledoux, I would never get tired of his music, thank you all, thank you Chris Ledoux, good ride cowboy
15 Years now. Losin’ Chris still hurts. And I miss the Western Underground. Still proud Chris held out to get them into the studio for his first Nashville record! Think about that! I know BANDS that didn’t hold out for their own members! Of all the men, Chris was THE man!
The Good Lord took Chris to soon, but its all in His plan. However, I sure do miss Ledouxs honest and heart felt music. "Cowboy even though you took God's call It left a hole in us all".
miss the high school & college rodeo days, riding from rodeo to rodeo & jamming Chris Ledoux ALL the way!!! Best cowboy poet to ever put in song!! nobody will ever be able to hold a candle to Ledoux!!!
I still have and listen to the early music that didn't really get played a lot. However I believe that they were some of Chris's best. I listen to the old and the newer music and Absolutely LOVE everything this man sang. I believe. his son is also doing a great job. I'm sure Chris would be proud. God Bless Chris LeDoux! I miss you Chris.
Angela Houtz, the stuff that didn't get payed like Strawberry Roan and Bareback Jack? Re-Ride and Caballo Diablo? That stuff? The uncommercialized stuff that he was selling to make it from one rodeo to the next. I love all his music but, his early stuff has more feeling, in my opinion.
Thanks so much for supporting my music 🎼 I’m so greatful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being fun, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s okay by you........
Show me a radio station that plays songs like this and I will tune into it a glue the knob so it can't be moved. RIP Chris LeDoux country music needs you back. I hope to hear you sing in Heaven!
Mountain County out of Colorado Springs. Independently owned and plays Chris and dirt County all the time. They have an app so you can listen anywhere.
96.3 in Wickenburg Arizona plays a lot of Chris. I met him once when I was in high school by pure accident. I will never forget what he said. "If you fall off, Get back on and conquer it". That sticks like glue
Never enjoyed dancing so much as when that special girl danced with me to this song, it rocked my world. My heart leaps with joy every time i hear this song.
Hey all: Chris Ledoux is one of my all time favorite singer/song writers in any genre of music. Was a sad day when we lost him but his music will live on. As Garth Brooks said: God bless Chris Ledoux!!! Amen
All my own Ole pards have headed up the trail,we all used to listen to Chris you could feel and understand cause we where living it out,surely miss them and chris
Saw him in a bar/country dance hall (very interment setting) in Montana just before he got really big. Holy God he was good. What a show. Pyro technics and everything. He played for at least 2 1/2 hours and was as friendly as can be. Out back of the bar was a motorhome and a horse trailer that him and the band traveled in. I will never forget that show as it was one of the best concerts I have seen. RIP Mr. Ledoux, you are missed by an army of adoring fans.
Been a long time since you were taken from us, I still love you and your music and miss you! Ned’s keeping us in plenty of the old songs though! Proud to see him do it and I know that you are smiling too!! Miss You, Cowboy!
Thanks so much for supporting my music 🎼 I’m so grateful 🥰and I hope you never stop being fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s okay by you....
I have listened to this song since I was little, as soon as I heard the intro I knew it wasn't the original. Both the piano and violin are off, of course Chris did amazing
Every time I hear another of his songs, it is as good or better than the last. Mr. LeDoux I wish I had discovered your music while you were still around.
Miy dad took me to go see him when I was younger. I'm so grateful that I got to go and see him now then I did. His songs are inspiration and what true Country music is. RIP Chris LeDoux
Well they say songs are lived,I guess they're right,I'm aching to hold her",I'm miss you sally,wish I could saddle up and backtrack,always regret not staying
Thanks so much for supporting my music 🎼 I’m so grateful 🥰and I hope you never stop being fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s okay by you....
No one ever wishes to be older but I would wish just for one day to have met him or seen him perform on stage. But he left us with a wonderful gift in Ned. I now wish to see him.
Hey I've been there done it I watched you ride rodeos he is one hell of a Ryder he is he was one full ride son of a gun the best I ever seen good thing about it is I got to drink a beer with him he is my idol and you know I want to go out like he did but no one can feel his shoes I wish I could come close he was a cowboy and a half
Hi I just wanted to thank you again for being so supportive and following me on my journey. I love inspiring and encouraging others. People like you help me to keep showing up! Hope you are having an amazing day!!!
Thanks so much for supporting my music 🎼 I’m so grateful 🥰and I hope you never stop being fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s okay by you....
I remember the first time I ever heard of him was in a garth brooks song, it took a bit to find an album as this was before Google and such. But we'll worth the time . Rip
Ain't but one woman I'll ever have any love for. Doubt she'd ever feel the same towards me, but she's stuck by me through everything since day 1, and I'm gon' do the same for her.
I ain't no fucking broke back mountain cowboy but I love Chris ledoux ride on Chris I am sure that your in that book tex ridder talked about amen brother
When Chris died we lost a library of cowboy and rodeo stories, some never told. I wish there was a way to record all of our stories and keep them safe for future generations to learn from and to enjoy.
Mr Chris Ledoux sir I totally get and understand what your song is talking about here it’s about a guy who loved a girl and he let her go because he thought that she was too good for him but he starts to regret it because he comes to realize that the girl he let go of he ended up being in love with her and he wishes that he could get another chance to tell her how he truely feels about her folks if you listen to this song as many times as I have you will come to realize that that’s what this song is truely about
By dad died last year right before the Marine Corp birthday!! Vfw commander in Livingston Montana...he talked everyday about this man when he had a chance....my dad an this man lived lives we could only dream about!!!
One of my top 100 Chris LeDoux songs of all time. I mean, how do you even rank them? ALL #1? Ok that works for me. We only met a few times, but you were so friendly every single time. Rest easy my friend.
