Willie Nelson Second time that I see you in your suit.The first time you were young in the sixtyes.And then you convert yourself and different character change 💯 charming ❤ But you is still Willie Nelson the man with the voice. The man who writes beautiful music. Thank you, Willie for singing that song.Remind me so many memori love you❤
So many of the greatest singers have recorded this beautiful song, but somehow, this direct and simple interpretation is my favorite. Thank you for posting this.
Not a trick to be found here. The man stands there and honors the tune. Solid musicianship, straightforward rendition of a beautifully crafted tune. This one makes a tear fall, because it is so true and right. The crowd goes wild, too.
(Going by Leno's hair, this must have been in the mid-late '90's.) Knockout. Being a great songwriter himself, Willie knows what goes into a great song, and knows how to handle one by someone else, in this case Jerome Kern's compositional masterpiece. His declamatory style, with its conversational phrasing, is absolutely perfect for Oscar Hammerstein's lyrics, and the tune itself, modulating, as it does, through three different, distant keys? With Willie Nelson's ears... No problem.
WILLIE NELSON - All the Things You Are My Mom and Dad's favorite song (mine too) is Kern & Hammerstein's masterpiece ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE - new versions of which (meaning ones I've never seen) keep reaching my appreciative ears in RU-vid postings by 'artists various' including, just a month ago, Willie Nelson's performance (with a full orchestra yet!) on Jay Leno's Tonight Show, circa “mid-to-late 90's” according to the informed comments below from kindred spirits.
