City of New Orleans - Willie Nelson and Sheryl Crow

Willie Nelson and Sheryl Crow - City of New Orleans

[@richardbeard6100]

It does not matter where you may be from , and what your tastes may be , when you listen to a country western like this one , with these peformers , you just have to love it .

[@robertcudlipp3426]

A great version of an American anthem. Steve Goodman who wrote this, and many other standout songs, deserves far greater recognition, despite dying so young.

[@rebeccawagner4167]

Sheryl Crow and Willie Nelson are truly amazing 🎉🎉. They both are putting on a fantastic performance 🎉🎉. They both have very unique vocals and it blends together nicely🎉🎉

[@hugebartlett1884]

They complement each other so well! Their voices carry a distinctive pitch and resonance. Lovely to listen to!

No matter what Willie sings, or with who he sings with, it is priceless

[@raybin6873]

I love Willie's version of this great song....I play it often on my mandolin. I wish I could meet Willie just one time!

[@lindaowens4326]

Sheryl & Willie awe!! Both great artists!! Love them!! ❤️

[@sandywright6257]

These two are so great together ! THEY share the same joy and happiness of eachother and the love and friendship together ! Great choice for them ! Love them both so much !

[@stewartwhite5062]

Everytime I hear this song my mood lifts. Love it !!

[@grahamfunnell2942]

As the son of a proud railwayman who did his job with pride every day, this song really resonates with me. Those of us who remember the fading years of steam will always love this.

[@Dambuskers]

What a great song ......................willie Nelson is the best

[@larryashworth9003]

i wish they bring back the engine.. trains and ships.. be good waybyi travel again.

My grandfather was a railway man, L & N but was retired by time I came along.

[@samgiacca8408]

God Bless

[@allen_steel1236]

I wish I could say that I could join you in fond memories of the railroad, as I would love to have been working for one of the major or even minor railroads, in the days of Passenger service. Unfortunately the closest I ever got was working on the two-way radios and Communications equipment they had in california. For southern pacific. But there is a Certain Romance in Mystique that the railroad will always have and I have a great respect for the men and women that were able to do the jobs and what could be some of the worst environments, and worst weather possible.

[@walthermartinez9516]

What a great country we have!I did it backwards,from StAntonio Tx to Baltimore,MD beautiful exactly like this song describe it

Willie Nelson is ONE with his music. So beautiful !

[@indyracingnut]

My grandfather was a engineer for the Santa Fe on the Super Chief (later the Southwest Chief), Sunset Limited and City of New Orleans. Seems I spent half my childhood on the rails....This song is such a national treasure.

[@Skipperj]

+indyracingnut What a privilege man! I hung out at the D&H R.R. roundhouse in Rouses Point,N.Y.,back in the early 60's during summer break.I was 14yrs. old.,and got to check oil and prechecks on the old RS series ALCO'S.And some GP EMD's.I entered a 47 year career/romance with diesel powered equipment as a mechanic/operator.I retired 2 years ago,and still love diesel powered anything,and miss being around them.

Willie Nelson is a national treasure!

[@mihaimihai9254]

No offence, but you' re wrong! He's an INternational treasure for sure! -:)))

[@Clearanceman2]

Here's the thing with Willie. He's an absolute legend just for the songs he's written. His singing and playing is fine, but he's absolute legend of a song writer. If he had just written the song Crazy and that's it, he'd be a great song writer IMO.

[@peterdallman4550]

@@Clearanceman2 His playing is more than fine.. he’s recognized as being in the elite company of guitarist such as Glenn Campbell.

[@Clearanceman2]

@@peterdallman4550 I don't know, when he's played a decent guitar maybe. But trigger is so worn out I can't tell. I saw that VH1 special in 1999 with him and Johnny Cash (another absolute legend song writer) and Willy broke a string. And while it was being replaced he borrowed Johnny Cash's guitar and it sounded so sweet when Willy played it. So probably.

[@theodorerooseveltiii4199]

Anything Sheryl sings makes me cry...damn she's so beautiful. My girl Sheryl, whiskey rivers of tears of a love never known...

[@martinmcdonald4207]

She always had the same effect on me too, she is a class act, that`s why she is on stage with Willie Nelson.

[@dennisesplin3285]

A true gent. Lucky to see the great Willie Nelson in Liverpool. Accessable. Friendly. Signed autographs for all his fans. What a back catelogue. Willie has forgotten more about music than most pop stars know today. Love X.

[@marekklonowski862]

Perfectly matched harmonics and voices. A wonderful listen!

[@jhandle4196]

Such a wonderful story to tell by a couple of wonderful voices; of a way of life now lost, but preserved in this treasure of American music Rest in Peace Steve Goodman.

Good Voices represent a "Guthrie Folk song."

[@vilmarpereira1552]

Willie and Sheryl are stars fantastics!

[@tudorbevan173]

Have heard this while doing the trip and I get emotional whenever. I hear it so lucky to have done it

[@mosheweinstein5642]

This song was composed by Steve Goodman ע"ה May God bless his soul.

[@chrishassett8750]

I was 13 and rode the SP from Houston to San Jose in 1970. Steve Goodmans song is prophetic because he was on the City of New Orleans when he wrote that song. My experience was similar in as much as the train was trashed because the train companies were trying to get out of passenger service. I listen to Arlo Guthrie's version of that song often and think about that trip.

[@russellmakar579]

First song i ever played and sang to my grandson, thank you Steve Goodman

[@MrSticks9999]

This is great . . . . and don't forget the bass player. He's everywhere!!

[@miketrafford1306]

Willie did a free concert for the troops at MacDill AFB in 2003, just before Gulf War 2. Afterwards, the boys lined up for memorabilia and I was last. I think he was a bit bemused by the Australian uniform and all he had left was a guitar pick, so he autographed my slouch hat, which I still use. No-one believes it's Willie's signature, but it is.

[@rosemarygranat4541]

[@patriciawilson1836]

Have seen this icon in two venues..one in Anchorage , Alaska, and one in an iconic ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa, called The Surf....a place where so many icons have performed from Duke Ellington to Peter, Paul and Mary to Willie and it was the place where "the music died" after the last concert of Buddy Holly, the Big Bopper and Richie Valens. I grew up there. The ballroom has the energy of all those who've walked the halls and the dance floor. If you love music, don't miss it if you are in the area. It was a great venue. Willie was personable and connected with the audience. You could almost reach out...he hasn't lost it....💜
