John Conlee sings "Common Man" on Larry’s Country Diner

[@br8hix]

His voice sounds just as good as it did when he recorded this song!

[@lucy0537]

br8hix even better now!

[@appalachiangunman9589]

Sure does.

[@kimnguyen-chance4494]

Absolutely!

[@paulskalla6845]

No kidding, sounds like the radio from 40 years ago.

[@mistercaltrain9738]

Yes sir

[@thebackyardbear]

Conlee is one of the most underrated musicians of our time.

[@davesteller6301]

Absolutely!

[@mwilliams1330]

The simplicity of this performance. The Sheriff, John, and the perfect back up singer...amazing.

[@Ripzavie]

No 😂😂😂 this is a joke of a song

[@patriciaroggy1267]

I got to meet him many years ago. He was so sweet!

[@awakeningblacksheep9610]

Hes not under rated, stop using this term people, he was highly regarded, respected , well known and awarded , far from under rated

[@joshuabrooks4907]

John may be getting older, but his voice is still the same.

[@leslieholman3121]

That backup singer has the most pleasant smile in the world. Love these clips

[@mandeemartin8620]

who is she?

[@brianhelle7064]

Jimmy Capps wife is who she is. I don’t remember her name

[@bigjohnson3742]

[@Bcroft39]

There’s nothing like a great singer singing with just an acoustic guitar backup.

[@mickdonnell7077]

Another real country music singer, true legend himself with 100% Originality. Today's country music is a joke...

[@josephcoletrain4914]

It is its ambarrasing and insulting

[@awakeningblacksheep9610]

True that 60s 70s 80s country was good and different from 2000s but not all today's country music is crap , there is alot of still great stuff, you shouldn't be so closed minded

[@bentalley7277]

yeah take away the trick voice and music machines they sound like crap .most anyway.

[@chaddesantis4191]

Jamey Johnson is country music's only hope.

[@hr6703]

@@awakeningblacksheep9610 almost all of the popular country music made today is horrible and simply made so they can make money. There is no soul or passion in most of today's country music.

It’s amazing how good the older country musicians sound live compared to today’s generation that sound nothing like their albums.

[@thomasdaniel7386]

Colin Because the new country sucks

[@daiku36]

@@thomasdaniel7386 For the most part, unfortunately, that's true.

[@Youknowwhoin2024]

It may have something to do with him being a common man

[@gordenscottfan3107]

@Matt Beeman 100% correct, that is why singers like Taylor Swift and Katy Perry should thank their lucky stars some producer felt he could make money with them. Sure they can sing and write good songs but so can thousands of other good looking women it is the backing that always makes the star....for example Sam Phillips sticking with Luther Perkins guitar sound making Johnny Cash.

[@tearemup7544]

You cannot duplicate that voice!!! What a great legend.

[@mistascott007]

He's still got it! Gets better with age.

The acoustic guitar man is really excellent ✨

This is what country music should sound like!!

No that's what country music did sound like!!

[@greenlane8846]

Still one of the most recognizable and iconic voices in country music.

[@ivorvaz4724]

It's true that John Conlee is one of most underrated country music artists. But 7 #1 hits and 14 other songs into the Top Ten are testimony to a super talent. Love you, COMMON MAN. Best wishes from faraway Bombay.

[@christianamoh6259]

Mr Conlee, I used your lyrics in my proposal for my girlfriend and it worked!!!! You're great. I wanna be a common man too. We love you!!!

[@ToddAndelin]

Every time John Conlee comes on the country station I turn it up a little bit. He's a special singer...

[@cigarr3870]

This song gets better as i get older. Such a simple but deep song. Thank you for uploading it here.

[@ninny6296]

I sure miss listening to this man. Rose Colored Glasses was such an inspiration to me in the 80’s. (I still sing it to this day on stage) I hope this man realizes how his talent touched a LOT of lives ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Ben-qb4lj]

You should catch him in concert! He sounds as good as he ever has!

[@donmartin6185]

This is a great song, I listen to it every day. He has great songs and he still has a great voice.

I grew up on a farm in Alberta. I listened to John on the radio and often had his cassette in driving down gravel roads. His voice is exceptional and so are his lyrics!

[@tommckinnon1005]

Saw John in concert last year in a 400 seat theater. I have seen a lot of arena shows by bigger stars but that is the most enjoyable one for me.

[@royalpain1403]

I remember first listening to Conlee in a record store in downtown Chicago in 1981 - "Miss Emily's Picture". He sounded like he was old and seen it all even then - and he was only 35! Good memories.

[@strider1-140]

This song hits home for me. Feeling out of place in this society and being an old soul with an old truck

[@buckofranco2298]

Considering that I was introduced to Conlee in the 80s by my dad, and appreciate him so much, I can't even begin to imagine why any of those in the video would be stuffing their faces while he sings. Seriously, re-watch the video. I would be fixated on John and appreciating him while he's still with us.
