A Remake of a Classic for Charity!

Wille Nelson and Steve Perry “Faithfully”

This was unexpected…

Willie Nelson teamed up with iconic former Journey frontman Steve Perry for a re-imagining of Journey’s massive 80’s hit ballad “Faithfully”, and it’s pretty dang cool.

First off, Willie is 92 and Steve Perry is 76, so naturally you’re not going to get the same vocal performance as you did decades ago, so let’s just clear that up, ok?

That being said, it’s a pretty neat version with these two legends:


The best part? All proceeds to Farm Aid, to support family farmers and the good food movement.

Can’t hate on that!

Cody Johnson and Lainey Wilson “Mama Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys”

The Natonal Finals Rodeo just wrapped up in Las Vegas (it’s on my bucket list to go one day) and Cody Johnson was one of the featured performers, which makes sense, as he’s a legitimate cowboy. And he brought up a pretty legit cowgirl -fellow Country superstar Lainey Wilson- to perform the classic “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys”.

And, of course, it’s great:

Here’s another look:

@gypsycowboy1 C2C 2025 we need this duo lets make it happen guys @Lainey Wilson @Cody Johnson @C2CFestival #countymusic #fyp #gypsycowboy1 #laineywilson #codyjohnson #duo#c2c #london ♬ original sound – country music Uk

Cody has mentioned that he and Lainey want to remake Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn’s “Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man”, but they haven’t gotten around to it just yet.

Yep- that needs to happen in 2025.

Get on it, you two!

I’m honestly just really happy about the direction that Country music is going these days- getting away from the “Bro Country” and moving to more of a traiditonal sound.

More of that in 2025, please!

Chris Stapleton “Always On My Mind”

Yesterday, Willie Nelson released a live album called “Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90 Live At The Hollywood Bowl”- which is from his star-studded 90th Birthday Bash back in April, and it’s full of great live performances, including this gem from Chris Stapleton on his classic “Always On My Mind”:

I mean, chills, right?

Chris Stapleton could sing my utility bill, and I’d buy it.

If you’re looking for some great music to jam out to this weekend, this album has you covered.
More info here:  https://willienelson.com/

Also, the Willie Nelson and Friends docuseries will be available December 21st on Paramount +

I still can’t get over the fact that Wille Nelson is 90.

Freaking 90.

Proof that you just have to live your damn life.
