Biloxi - Jimmy Buffett (by way of Jesse Winchester)

[@rochellearizonapickering4332]

Timeless beautiful and every since I have ever been on the beaches of Mississippi I have been drawn to this place now I am older and have three kids of my own on the beaches of Biloxi beautiful Mississippi ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@markharrison5321]

I love this song so much, mainly because I have pictures of my then 2-year old self playing on the white sands of Biloxi way back in 1968.

[@billoakley7915]

Not far behind you, my father was in the Air Force and he got stationed in Kessler in 1969. Just after Camille hit, so I have deep affinity for Biloxi, this song has always had a special place in my heart

[@markharrison5321]

@@billoakley7915 yep. My mom used to talk about how bad Camille was. She remembered it from our trip in 1968. At the time we lived in Tallulah Louisiana, across the Mississippi River from Vicksburg. So we were very connected to my parents' friends in New Orleans, and the Gulf Coast.

[@deltonkillen8024]

I grew up in Pascagoula area ( where JB was born by the way ). Been away for 52 yrs now and still miss it even with all the changes. I miss Jesse and Fingers, too.

[@coyata56]

I could sit and watch that water lapping up on the beach for hours and getting to listen to this song at the same time just brings such peace to the soul......... Gracias

[@coyata56]

Thank you....... I have been there and this video is such a dream come up towards New Orleans............

[@coyata56]

I just can't seem to get enough of this song at times........

[@nllleonard]

Have been a parrothead since before they had a name.... before there were crowds at his concerts. Jimmy is something very special. God bless him for being such a good friend to Jesse Winchester, and for sharing Jesse's wonderful songs.

[@franziegler4081]

I too have been a true Buffett fan for ever and always!

[@cchhaadd]

Just an old parrothead that thinks this is the greatest Jimmy Buffett song ever. The lyrics ring bells.

[@kellydurden8279]

I loved this song since I was a kid, now I'm 53 and have the opportunity to move there, so I'm planning on living out my days there.

[@merriebadham6701]

I often don't like "covers" of other people's songs. I'm a big fan of Jessie Winchester. But this sent chills down my spine. It's so beautiful. Thank you Jimmy Buffett for such a beautiful rendition of this song. I could almost feel the breeze and smell the salty air.

[@ParrotheadPoet]

I truly believe that when Jimmy makes a cover, it is better than the original. All of his covers he turns into his own.

[@NanceH11]

That footage is surreal and the ocean background makes the song perfect!

[@stevenpeters6909]

Been a Parrothead (they weren't called that then) since the 70's when I was in my early 20's, and I moved out of Wisc. I've been living by to the Pacific shore ever since; never gone back or looked back. Biloxi is one of JB's most underappreciated songs, but a favorite of mine.

[@duanevia4919]

I love to get up at sunrise at the beach and listen to this song! Simple beautiful!!!!

[@gaijinsstuff2776]

This song, and the video of the water splashing here, puts me in a better place

[@TheWvcoal]

Here on the first anniversary of Jimmy's passing... still hard to fathom. Fare thee well until we make our next landfall.

[@GS-gq5is]

I was born in Biloxi in '51. Grew up there and I remember when it was a sleepy little sea-side town, before it became casino city.

[@shannonluck8766]

❤️ grew up with two parrot head parents. Have two older sisters, and we'd always travel from Illinois down to the coast almost every summer! Favorite memories I cherish! Families all split up now and it breaks my heart. Find so much peace in listening to this song that taught me what love should be. Thank you!!

[@danfarmer6044]

Hard to listen to jimmy buffet and not feel better about life.first saw him and Jerry jeff walker in little rock in 1976.own alot of his albums and CDs.his music uplift me.dan

[@cchhaadd]

Buffett has been a big part of the background music of my life. This has always been my favorite. It takes me to the surf.

[@inganova1502]

Same here! This song takes me back to my Southern roots, the incredible music coming from there at the time, and dancing naked in the sea😂

[@coyata56]

Lets fill our pail with salty wather.......

[@poetrymanusa]

I met Jesse Winchester in Edmonton, Alberta during the 70;s while he was performing there, we both were in exile due to the Vietnam War...just feel in love with his music and his charming personality. I will miss you Jesse, Michael Lee Johnson, the Itasca, IL. poet. poetryman.mysite.com/

[@johnathanlogan1666]

Jimmy Buffett has inspired my blind ambition since I was 15. He is the reason I now live abroad in paradise on my terms. Change your geography and you might be ... Good advice Jimmy. Thank you!

[@karthurjr]

Heard it on coast to coast late night radio ...half asleep. Took some time but found this magical number by Jimmie. So restful and just plain nice!

[@flyingtgr1]

One of my all time favorite songs

[@jamesmills4788]

One of mine too, Troy

[@billoakley7915]

Mine too, it just takes me to a place I can’t verbalize

[@mikewainwright4304]

Sorry to see him go. Like most of us, I grew up with those songs.

[@tennesseebrigadeanv1523]

We've lost Jimmy. RIP😢

[@proud098]

Jesse winchester in cold canada thinkin' and dreamin' of louisiana far far away with the warm waters of biloxi.....whatta song it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@keepsmilin5766]

love this song....peace,,,from punta gorda fl

[@chrisbernhardt3570]

Mississippi Gulf Coast is one of this country's best kept secrets. Pass Christian, Long Beach, Biloxi, Gulfport. My future home.

[@2009jpp]

As a resident, I applaud the video combined with this song about my beautiful city.

[@ParrotheadPoet]

thank you! I work really hard to find the perfect scene for Jimmy's songs.

[@randallcarter6913]

Saw Jimmy at Judge Roy Beans , a little bitty bar in Daphne 20 years ago. What a treat!

[@randallcarter6913]

Such a beautiful song

[@thomaskluz727]

Eternal "Mother Mother Ocean!" Was here before all else and will be long after.

[@coyata56]

I love this......thank you so much, I love that you put the beach with the water only, I wouldn't know or care if it isn't Biloxi........it works........

[@jasongroat9809]

My favorite JB song. The waves in the back ground are a Plus. I am 6 hours from the gulf and haven't been there in 2 years, 11 months and 22 days. Thanks for the video. I may sneak off next week-end!

[@chrisbernhardt3570]

Get there! Life is too short my friend. Enjoy 😉

[@radarbrew]

Spent a time there. Spent some beach time, drunk and sober. That salt air gets to ya. Shrimp boils, Coronas, bikini women and no real names. Man, that was a good time. I miss you, Jimmy. RIP.

[@coyata56]

I love this and never will stop listening

[@Polliwog221]

My favorite Buffett song

[@coyata56]

even if this not the shore of Oleans........ I LOVE this

[@inganova1502]

One of my very favorites... Parrotheads Unite

[@mikec.9130]

You have to have spent time in Biloxi -- before the casinos.... to appreciate this 1......

[@deltonkillen8024]

I grew up on Mississippi coast and you are correct about the video, but it is a very nice touch. Happier, more peaceful days back then.

[@luckyconquerortv5748]

been there at least once a year ever since I was first born and lived there consecutively six years. some of the best memories of my life. used to play this on the jukeboxes there.

[@deltonkillen8024]

Mike C. Yes, sir! Grew up just East in Jackso County. Large difference from what's there now.

[@radarbrew]

Nearly a year there. Didn't have a clue what I was missing.

[@geraldoswald9467]

Thanks for the waves and Jimmy.

[@goxethee]

RIP Jimmy 😢

[@hughhayden6865]

Sometimes I pull this up just to watch the video. When I was 20, my brother went to biloxi and caught crabs and flew home to Buckeye with all the crabs in an Igloo ice chest and we had a boil. I don't even know if it was legal. They may have been poached crabs, but we drank beer and he showed us how to eat crabs off the shell. He died later on.... And I went to biloxi bay and got bad drunk and got naked and swam more than a quarter mild out into the gulf in the middle of the night and let myself float and thought of the crabs that my brother brought back to Arizona as his carry on luggage and I missed him with all my heart and I hoped that maybe a current or a shark would take me and finally when it didn't, I swam back in and got dressed and walked across the road to my hotel room and went home the next day. And I think of him often and what it must have been like for him to be 17 and catching crabs while I was at home on the cotton farm and and how none of it really equated 20 years later, yet somehow did nonetheless. ..... I miss that feller. I hope this video never gets taken down.

[@dilbertdoe601]

Love this song. Video is definitely not of Biloxi beach though. Only time the water looks like that is when a hurricane is moving in.

[@ParrotheadPoet]

Dilbert Doe well, find me a video of Biloxi beach and I'll change it for you! FINS UP

[@scottdixon469]

+Dilbert Doe True looks more like Pensacola Beach or Navarre beach. I was born and raised on Pensacola Beach and spent 25 years there until I moved on. I still Love this song though!

[@bawanderr]

I'm sure you could tell by the coastline, right? Sheesh. What if it Was before a hurricane? Would that make you happy? Could you point out the particular wave that makes it Pensacola? Or Daytona? Or could it be Lake Michigan? You need to just watch it and relax, man. You're overthinking the joyous things in life. They're just like you. Simple.

[@shelbyvision]

Well, Hurricane Nate hit last night!!

[@luckyconquerortv5748]

[@coyata56]

I know that it is not Biloxi

[@ednasmemories6884]

I realy like teddy hawkins version

[@Machell]

Hey dirty Masons what's up buttercup 💋😁

[@randallcarter6913]

Biloxi beaches do not look like this. That are pretty ugly now, covered with casinos

[@randallcarter6913]

No doubt. Ugly pipes flowing into the bay. That’s the issue. Biloxi doesn’t have any pretty beaches. It’s mostly mud on the ‘beach’. It’s not a beach it’s a bay

[@fertiledirt7708]

RIP jimmy
