Kris Kristofferson - Thank you for a life (2006)

[@2222isabella]

No better song to say good bye to a star who was born 88 years ago and left us today. He's legend and he'll live on in his music and movies, and in our hearts. R.I.P., Kris.

[@violamartini2108]

This gave me chills...thank you for posting.

[@eddymclain1291]

R.I.P. KK...Your music carried me through some of the darkest periods of my life. Thankyou sir, with all my heart. Xx

[@etiennedevignolles7538]

Me too. Might not be here today but for Kris. :(

[@nancydotson6182]

Kris is perhaps the best songwriter of all times. Thank you for your music.... I'm so grateful to have grown up with your music. God Bless you always.

[@Jen-c6u]

What a beautiful song. I feel lucky for having grown up with Kris Kristofferson. My folks had good taste.

[@patriciawarner6602]

That is what my daughter says!!! Thanks her dad and me for listening to Kris when she was growing up !! ❤❤

[@florabelleamoyen593]

The tears come unbidden. Here's to one of the artists I truly respect.

[@jameswade1940]

Kris had a wonderful way with words to say "Thank You" for this life. I'm sure God heard it. A special prayer.

[@corneliadenninger5395]

Thank You Kris for all the beautiful music you have given to this world. RIP KRIS KRISTOFFERSON. 1936 - 2024

[@JürgenHäring]

Er war mit der Größte und es ist mehr als traurig, dass er nicht mehr lebt. Solche Menschen gibt es heute nicht mehr, aber mit seinen tollen Liedern wird er für immer bei uns sein. Danke für alles, Kris

[@Don.Key.]

Ich habe es erst heute erfahren, ich hatte Tränen in den Augen, der vorletzte Highwayman ist nun leider auch gegangen - ruhe in Frieden und lieber Willie, halte du noch etwas durch.

[@garlandremingtoniii1338]

Thank you dear Jesus, for seeing to it that I was born. Thank you for seeing to it that I was not only born but I was Born during the days when country & and western music reigned supreme. I’m an elderly man now and I’m getting older by the day so fast. So many people, so many places & faces have come and gone. And they came and went so fast , Like a twinkling star on the tip, of a missile, as it screams across the The dying light of the western skies. Thank you dear God for seeing to it that I was born between 1946 and 1964.

[@lloydharris4565]

Thank You for a life worth living. Saw you with Rita, in 1973, at an outdoor all day concert. Right after seeing Kris, Rita and Bob Dylan in the 1973,movie release of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. There was a handsome guy who lived in Mendocino 45 years ago who looked just like Kris, Tomaz was a lady killer, and a nice man, like Kris Kristofferson.❤❤❤RIP gorgeous, he was beautiful inside out.

[@sandracollins6840]

Thank you Kris for sharing your beautiful songs.....I have loved your music since I first heard you sing in 1973! I feel fortunate to have seen you in concert four times over the years. Forever a fan!

[@adelaideheike3022]

This is the most beautiful song thats l I have ever heard from the world's best song writer all his songs come from the heart there will never be another

[@javiergallegos9289]

Thank you Kris for serving and all your beautiful songs and music. I refer to you as "My buddy Kris" when I talk about you to my family you are the best. Thanks for showing me to love and learn to play guitar and sing for my grandson. I'd watch you play some chords which made it easier to learn. I also want to thank you for teaching me to love my wife, sons, grandbabies and family more than life itself. I dedicate this song to my wife. I tell my wife whom I have been with since 1984 and married on 2/14/1990, "Thank you for a wonderful life", which is a life that I'd call happy. I love her unconditionally and sometimes it seems like I'm running on rock and roll time and I keep loving and hanging on to her. I'll hang on to her as long as I can and as long as she loves me enough to stay in my corner and by my side. "I do love you babes". I try to learn from your beautiful songs so in my own way "I'm a believer" that we will be together until death do us part. The thought of me leaving her never ever crossed my mind I love her for better or for worse until death do us part. Your songs help reenforce my love for her. (I love you babes, till death do us part). I have a grandson who turned 3 April 12th 2021 who I'd put to sleep when he was only months old with the help of all your beautiful music and songs I found on KZbin. He also learned to love the guitar because of you. I have a video when he was a few months old that when I moved the guitar away from him he cried pretty bad and once I brought it close to him he stopped crying right away. That just blew my mind. As he got older he chose which songs he wanted to hear which most were yours. Him and I got to see you in Denver I believe at the Paramount theater before Covid started thanks to my son Raul and daughter in law Tammy. My Son , daughter in law, wife and grandson Zach went along for the road trip and they all found stuff to do near by while my grandbaby and I watched you on stage. So my grandson Antonio was your youngest fan there at just a little over a year old. We tried to get pictures with you but that didn't work out as we wished it would have. We got some with the band and some souvenirs. I'm Amazed by your life story and journey Sir. Thank you Buddy for your beautiful songs music and for serving. Much respect and love for My buddy Kris Kristofferson. You can call me Bones. Stay and be safe buddy. Love you buddy.

[@cindy290]

What a precious tribute. I love us old timers who share our life long music loves with our Grandbabies. I too have a Grandson who knows who Kris is as a singer, songwriter and actor. My Grand'baby' is 16 yrs old now andKris is gone, but I love that Kris legacy will live on. Thanks for sharing. You have a great son and daughter in law, willing to indulge you and your Grandsons bonding interest.❤

[@davidshulman768]

My wife of 54 years, and myself have lived under the influences of mountain faces in the Rocky Mountains lit by harvest moons for 24 years now. This song is about our life together since we were 14 years old…..

[@MrGatecrasher1]

We went to see Kris and supporting artists at Kenwood House in North London in 2018. He was celebrating his 82nd Birthday. What a man, probably one of the best singer songwriters of our time, and not forgetting actor of course. RIP Kris, hope you're enjoying being back with your old mates Jonh Cash & Waylon Jennings

It is wonderful to know that you found your soulmate in Lisa, your wife of over 36 years - and that you have had five children together, in addition to helping raise the three children from your prior two marriages. In my opinion, you are the best songwriter who has ever graced our lives.

[@Jesusexplains]

❤❤ ❤ MY ODE TO KRIS … I’d rather hear this old frog croak out his songs with soul, than to hear from some perfectionist play empty rock n roll! And I’d rather hear forgotten words from his aching, breaking heart, than to hear some latest tune that somehow made the charts. 🎶 Yes, Kristofferson’s my hero, through his crazy ups and downs. He has set the hallmark, has the right to wear the crown. Yes, Kristofferson’s my hero, through years and many miles. Whenever I hear his music, it always brings a smile. 🎶 Then in the twilight on the stage, more faded than his jeans, words fell like gilded treasures, more valued than they seem. But I’d rather this old frog croak out out his songs with soul, than to hear from some perfectionist play empty rock n roll … …

[@leiferikbagge9851]

I sincerely doubt that anyone who knows anything about songwriting would underrate Kris. Doing that would only expose their lack of knowledge. I am an amateur singer/songwriter. I'm below average as a songwriter. Kris makes legends like Lennon/McCartney, John Fogerty, Bob Dylan, and Woody Guthrie seem rather simple, and yet they are everything but that.

[@RedHairFire]

Only underrated by you maybe. You have no idea how many of his songs have been covered by every kind of singer.

[@leiferikbagge9851]

@@RedHairFire I'm afraid you have misunderstood me. I'm the last person on this planet to underestimate Kris Kristofferson, Lennon/McCartney and John Fogerty! I am very well aware of the vast amount of artists that have sung Kris' songs. When I'm on stage, I mostly sing Kristofferson's songs. As a lyric writer Kris i is in his own league.

[@robertchannings1163]

Discovered Kris and his music late, into my sixties I think but he became my favourite singer and I only heard “Thank you for a life” for the first time on the Tuesday before he went home. I didn’t even know he’d gone but I played it in church Sunday morning before the sermon because it touched me so much I wanted everyone to hear it. Monday morning I heard the sad news. But it’s not so sad. I know I’ll get to meet him where he is now.
