Loved the way Buck kept patting Ray on the back. Such genuine caring. Those two greats sure found their groove on this song. Outstanding!!!

[@arnassimaitis2105]

@Steve Stevens ohh the music gets me down to my tears, but man believe there was racism in this time. You can read Ray Charles’ autobiography Brother Ray (wonderful book) and you’ll see. But whatever bad times there are just keep on singing and the world’ll soon become a better place

[@boblozaintherealworld3577]

​@@arnassimaitis2105 I'm sitting here right now with tearing eyes. Bad times for almost everybody throughout the years and ages, including my Mexican 'abuelos' from way back right here in el ciudad de Los Angeles. But this video, damnit....music produced and loved right here in the USA. It's a tear-jerker for sure.

[@fourmilier.]

Buck Owens and Ray Charles singing together. I can die happy now.

[@danielteomusic5851]

This is one of the most important footage of the human history...

[@greatbyrondo]

A lot of times when two solo artist sing together their voices don't always blend very well.... But, Wow....Buck and Ray sound great together on the choruses..! They should have done a duets album....that would have been very cool....

[@Imperialist440]

Both these guys are the best in my book. Thank you Buck Owens for writing this classic! Thank you Ray for having the most soulful voice I've ever heard!

[@johnparker8588]

Country music today sucks. This is real country.

[@VidarLund-k5q]

Today's Country Music is just CMINO, Country Music In Name Only.

[@reggieshawmusic9449]

We miss you both. You were both Amazing. This song was my Grandpa's favorite song.

[@kristenlewis4103]

This was MY grandpa's favorite song,too! When he sang it,I would cry..It was just so sad! ( was little, and I didn't know it was just a song, lol!)

Country and Blues created Rock & Roll! This combination is perfection. Wow!

[@boblozaintherealworld3577]

I've been looking for this for years. The performance says it all.

[@garygreer3746]

I believe Ray Charles shoulda been declared a National Treasure. He enhances all singers he accompanies.

[@jumaineadams9152]

In my book, he is an national treasure. He was one of the early voices for Black people rights. RIP to Buck Owens and Ray Charles.

[@regandevereaux5079]

Love this version best because Ray & Buck...are BUCK & RAY!! But Ray loved Buck's music especially as well as Country, he recorded 3(?) of his songs. However much I adore Ray's genius and I do, this duet with the Buckaroos backing them retains that sweet, sorrowful lamentation from Buck which I think highlights the soulfull, broken heartedness and "everyman" quality that Ray wanted to, and I believe did successfully, convey to squares & hipsters (aka lilly- white northern city folks) who were getting down man 😎 to the most God awful Folk, watered down Jazz-lite, and pretentious poetry readings!! The film "RAY" w Jamie Foxx is so well done and it doesn't sugar-coat how much of a a*"#@/e Ray Charles was & boy was he! Although most geniuses, revolutionaries, world-changers, etc are "difficult" "a hand full"🙄😣 especially if they're artists. The ones who are not are still equally gifted as they are cursed, Donny Hathaway, Vincent Van Gogh, Lord William Wilberforce. Oh well enough of my blather, check out Buck when Don Rich was still alive, may he rest in peace, and the Buckaroos on the Jimmie/Jimmy Dean show, they were on fire! Peace, Regan

[@itsjay9169]

Regan Devereaux Buck And Don on "Loves gonna live here again" is fucking beautiful

[@tinaviolanti7835]

I can't believe I got too hear that song again. When I was a little girl I always remember my mom n dad some times would have dance n the house n my dad he loved too dance n once n a while would have a couple drinks n they would put records on the player n before you knew it their would be the Song It's Crying Time Again. It was one of my parents favorite records. I'm 61 now an it's one of my best memories of my parents dancing to that beautiful song. Thanks for the memory. Tina Violanti

[@sarahthornburg894]

WELL I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU OLD FRIEND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnparker8588]

No prejudice just two great performers showing us how to entertain.

[@MoSco5000]

Why do you people always default to this whenever you see a white and black person do anything together? Can’t it simply just be: “just two great performers showing us how to entertain”? Because not EVERYBODY is/was prejudice.

[@needsaride15126]

@@MoSco5000 Thank you. Just two performers singing together. Those who default to race and prejudice stating there wasn't any. Are just whitewashing history once again. There has always been racism, there will always be racism. A white person and black person singing together doesn't change that.

[@tomkat5626]

Classic , classic performance from two music giants

[@catherinebenjamin9550]

Two classy guys just doin what they do! Thanks Buck and Ray!. Bless ya.

[@bencraft4733]

2018 two great singers the real country !

[@donaldwatson3176]

Wow. So good. Nothing today compares to this kind of talent and music.

[@billybadboy69]

Beautiful. If Ray and Buck can get along [beautifully] maybe the rest of us can too.

[@LarryMan51]

I agree with that, I pray I live to see that day.

[@2refinish]

Buck *loved* Ray Charles and his music. He was a big fan--as was Don Rich.

[@brendacoulter5753]

Buck Owens was a great singer. And so was Ray Charles. ❤😂🎉😢😮😮😅

From Macedonia: Nothing is better than this!

[@robertotorino8862]

“Absence makes the heart grow fonder” but “out of sight out of mind” has helped me get over a few headaches, it works, don’t chase after a failed relationship as the girl will hate you. I have heard so many stories which end in disaster, I am glad I never chased a girl no matter how much I wanted to and after watching one too many guys getting locked up after they did chase makes me glad I was too broke to chase as I can still smile and nod at an ex without seeing fear in her eyes which is the result of stalking an ex

[@moniquesanders8797]

What a pair

[@voodoo49]

Buck sounding a lot more soulful than he did on his original recording... I like it!

[@Jigaboo123456]

I saw this in a sidebar and thinking that it would be great, I clicked on it. I was right!

[@grassbuff905]

I like so sing along. I think I'll make this a trio, so:- Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me I can see that far away look in your eyes I can tell by the way you hold me darlin', ooh That it won't be long before it's cryin' time Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder ( And that tears are only rain to make love grow Well, my love for you could never grow no stronger If I lived to be a hundred years old Oh, it's cryin' time again, etc Now you say you've found someone that you love better] That's the way it's happened every time before And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow Cryin' time will start when you walk out the door

Ole Buck is hearing up close what what a musical legend Ray C. truly is. Years later Ray & Willie teamed up to cut a record, If you see the video. Notice how Willie is in awe of Ray also!

I'm an old white man and I have always loved traditional country music and Ray Charles is probably my all time favorite singing. I have 20 to 25 favorite singers and at least 100 or more favorite songs.

I don’t know the views of either of these guys and right here it doesn’t matter but damn this is not only beautiful music but a good statement. Plus love of music and each other overcomes a heck of a lot.

Just seeing BUCK Owens my mind took me back to Bakersfield just like that ,yet seeing both Buck Owens and Ray Charles they told me There are more things that Unite us than what divides us. Amen Thank You Legends for all ya did for The Music industry

[@glasscockpits]

One of the all-time greatest tearjerkers. Man, I miss these two entertainers. If you get a chance, listen to UB40's version of this classic country song. A little island vibe added makes it unforgettable.

[@louisfarkas1497]

This is gold. So many songs by so many great performers, keeping us company. These guys are two of the best. Thx guys. You taught me how to have fun, and love music, and for that I will be forever grateful.
