Luke Bryan & Chris Stapleton "Drink A Beer" Morgantown, WV (3/24/13)

[@TheShootermagee]

Chris' voice could blow Luke out of the water any day of the week!

[@hannahmikulski5646]

Okay and? What does that have to do with this performance

[@SmileySmilerton]

+Hannah Mikulski It was an observation. That is all. Chill the %%#@# out.

[@bettyhinds5351]

I don't know but I try

[@shanetaylor7933]

Fox331 I agree

[@Eagle_Eye85]

Fox331 Could hell! It did. 20 seconds of his voice got more of a reaction than Luke did throughout this entire concert

[@mrmwest09]

If I had to choose only one vocalist I could listen to the rest of my life it would definitely be Chris Stapleton. And I bet Luke might just agree with me.

[@joaodemedeirosneto8703]

Michael West hahahaha true

[@ScottyRosencrance304]

A s they said that 7 yes ago he would be the artist they could listen to forever, the most. Imagine how you feel now @mrmwest09. Now millions agree with you. For sure. I do

[@jacksonr9357]

Chris is the man. So humble in his talents even though he has the most bragging rights cuz DAMN he can sing.

[@Derekalwaysdelivers207]

+Jackson R I've noticed that too.. This effin guy acts like he's a nobody when in fact he's perhaps the most talented musician living right now! Yeah I said it, all around this guy is Gold! Nothing he cant do!

[@EJones-ek4rx]

And compose! He is the definition of humble indeed! He has more than earned his right to sign his own da*n songs! He signs them better than the people he wrote them for. Wow, give me some of Chris's southern rock/blues any dam* time!

[@tylerberg6400]

That moment Luke says give it to them 1 time Chris = The chill bumps !!

[@aarongoins1251]

Shit made me stand up when he hit that last one,

[@jpartin98]

Chris is one of the most talented and most versatile singers in the business and is a true writing genius. His music is like no other person that I've heard. I am glad he's getting some credit for all of his hard work that he's done. When he finally hits mainstream radio, he's gonna blow up and people will see what I've been talking about for a long time. I might stir a hornets nest here, but Luke's vocals can't shine Chris a light. I agree Jason, he may not be now, but he will be for sure!

[@abach4406]

Chris is the only one saving country music!! THANK GOD

[@tacomamike2005]

check out Cody Jinks...

[@shanestuart4246]

chris is one of the few real country artist left

[@kimjacobs685]

So happy i went to that concert when chris sang it gave me chills, glad someone recorded it so i could get that feeling back!!

[@Kyrie061626]

The girl was a teenager with Cystic Fibrous. I was on the crew who took her there that night. She passed away a few months later. It was a moving day and I was glad I was able to be part of it. I lost my son's father only two months prior to this show. Very moving!

[@jc9561]

at least she got a good night out near the end vs sitting 24/7 in a hospital... my Mom did that for months before she passed and its simply a terrible existence.

[@MarkSmith-te9vb]

My roots are in Morgantown West Virginia where my dad was from. Now I'm a hillbilly living in Las Vegas loving life

[@crazyguys121]

man my dad died 6/2/2010 man after 3 years it still hurts when I heard this song I thought about my dad I cried and cried and cried im a tough Georgia boy but when I heard this I was sweatin tears like I never did in my life I know how you feel man R.I.P Greg Bryan always in memory never forgotten love you dad so long friend

[@EJones-ek4rx]

My mom passed away in Sept. I've been off the radar for a bit as far as enjoying music. Heard Luke's version after my mom passed and cried and cried. My mom wasn't a drinker, we never sat on a pier and had a beer, but damn it to he*l if this song doesn't make me ache for her even more.

[@jimgamble4227]

I Know the Feeling when you loose your dad 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@RobertWells-f3o]

Love this song played it at my buddies funeral he was blood but he was my brother miss him man like u wouldn't believe

[@angiegirl1604]

20 days to the day, Morgantown if all places. I love you Cody💙💛

[@charlyox]

One of my best friends died in a car crash and they played this song at his memorial. I had never heard it before. Now every time I hear it, it brings a tear to my eye and I reflect on the great times we had. RIP Kyle.

[@ghost086]

Rest in peace kyle

[@jasonbeltran4994]

having heard Chris sing now, we all know why Luke didn't let him sing a verse. haha Chris would have shredded this song. Such egos. Chris was behind the scenes for a long time. He's finally getting the credit he deserves. If you haven't looked up his songs, you should.

[@fatguypa]

the people paid to hear Luke sing. get over it

[@renegarza3169]

there is a video from another concert where they are both singing it like this one but Chris sings the second verse....so Luke does let him sing on it

[@jeremylilly1054]

His recorded version is so good

[@joekidd6432]

Absolutely! Chris is the man! He wrote it, nobody sings it better, especially a twinkle toes!

[@matiasgoinheix366]

4:16 he was cool enough to give credit to him by playing along, the two of them, and giving Chris two momentos to solo. I thought that was humble from Luke.

[@angiehoskins2959]

This song came out when I was grieving from my best friend passing away

[@dannymayfield2501]

Why does it always have to turn into a pissing contest when both are obviously very talented, they both bring something different to the table. I enjoy watching either or both of them. Relax, take a deep breath, then sit back and enjoy the video

[@jeffhamilton1595]

couldn't agree more my friend. playlists and social media are the bane of our existence. I cried when we lost Merle. Not many old schoolers left on this side of the dirt anymore. Chris, Jamey and others, unknown are our only hope

[@pipemasteruaw]

I have great respect for Mr. Stapleton ad of course Luke. I first heard this song after my son was murdered. This was his song.. Was blown away that Chris Stapleton wrote it. I think Luke could of been a little more respectful to the man who gave him a huge hit... Rock on both brothers.

[@keriharneck2574]

I heard this song when my horse Tonk , of 15 yrs Died .. as they were loading his body on the trailer to take him to the cemetery . He was my love of my life ..what a friend ❤

[@DeidraDianeWallace]

OMG...Luke is such a good person! Going to the children's hospital and then giving that little girl a shout out! Makes my heart smile!

[@sueev100]

Amazing guys. .. better than a studio recording... no retaking needed

[@Classic792]

I can watch this a million times and still be blown away by Chris's talent, even just that little bit at the end. I want him to as famous as he deserves.

[@K3mbusm]

Your wish came true!

[@jc9561]

Well... he did...

[@CoopsterJr]

We lost our son on March 20, 2014 at the age of 19. The whole family kinda wrapped our arms around this song for him. Luke does a great job with this song, but was surprised to see Chris wrote it, which I had just started listening too. Love yall!!

[@kdaly1]

+Jim C. So sorry to hear. I was surprised too and blown away by the performance

[@CoopsterJr]

Kevin Daly Thank you

[@djmixer136]

What Luke really meant to say was: "You go write an amazing song then I'll swoop in, throw my name on it and bedazzle it up".

[@arcmay4]

Subconsciously he's like "Shit, this guy is far more naturally talented than I can ever hope become."

[@retiredarmy2011]

Actually no, He and Chris are good friends and Chris wrote it for Luke in 2008 shortly after Luke's sister, who was Lukes best friend died of cancer.

[@kaylynchadwell1537]

+Bryan O'connor ohhhh I just thought it was a song bout Luke losing another woman and crying about it

[@garyquarles6457]

Bryan O'connor ,Bob segar

[@EJones-ek4rx]

Chris did write this song specifically for Luke after Luke lost a family member. But I do want to add that if Luke would say that, half of Nashville would have to say it as well. He has composed for everyone.

[@marilynscroggin980]

Chris Stapleton ROCKS!☆

[@angiegirl1604]

22 days to the day my brother died in the town he was born in....💔

[@angiegirl1604]

So I’m gonna set right here on the edge of this pier……😔💙💛❤️💙💛😩 watch the sunset disappear and drink a beer. So long my friend💙 remember all the times…..WE used too. GOD I MISS YOU‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️💔💔💔

[@LiberTBo]

They're playing it all to the right crowd down there in Morgantown.....GOoooo Mountaineers....

[@myexit98]

Beautiful song, Chris. Thank you!

[@barbhankel1571]

ever yr on nov 7th we play that song for my late husband who will be gone 6 yrs coming up! love and miss him

[@shlawson]

Needed this song tonight. RIP my sweet husband. #Forever50

[@jeffreyeverhart5513]

Chris Stapleton brought me here, a true artist & one hell of a voice..

[@terryshaffer09]

although maybe not as country as some us would like i still think Luke is one bright spot we have in Country music.

[@hannahmikulski5646]

And Carrie Underwood!

[@dianemitchell4387]

No luck is the magic of country music

[@dianemitchell4387]

Don’t get wrong 😑 I love Chris stepelton just as much 💕💕💕👍👍👍

[@doserdiesel]

It's sad this is 2013 Chris wrote this song and gave it to Luke and he killed it but if you heard Chris sing it hands down this man kills it!!!!!! Welcome to 2017 Chris is the man in country music!!

[@erincowell8939]

This song brings my soul to my brother's every single time. Until I see you again Sean Edward Riley! I love you so much

[@andyhughes2058]

thats what music is all about thanks for that reminder of the true purpose of music it humbles the mind

[@kennethlawson3635]

This is the most best song in the world I once had a family woke up one day an they where all gone an this song just hit me right n the heart

[@daraclayton8296]

I lost my son July 21st 2023. HE wrapped his truck. I'm still having denial, depression and I don't know, how to get back after this. I ended up in the Hospital 14 days later, I come out with a cardiac issue, my heart is still broken, this song he loved both of thse singers. ❤

[@vanessa-pu3vs]

this is such a great video! i love seeing Luke Bryan and Chris Stapleton perform this song together. And finding out Chris Stapleton wrote it! had no idea

[@sixbix6]

It's too bad people find the need to tear other people down. If you don't like an artist just keep it to yourself!!

[@vanessa-pu3vs]

OMMGGGG that ADLIB that Chris Stapleton at the end oh my goooooodness gracious is he amazingly talented

[@bctopper]

Chris is a badass

[@Jdickiemedia]

Might sound crazy but the moment I found out my dad died of cancer... this song played in my head.

[@curryridge]

WOW...I am gettin' cold chills just listening to this song!!!! AWESOME!!!!

[@derekboehmer9112]

Happy Birthday Dale. I miss you always and I hope you're smiling somewhere

[@GailSteinborn]

To my beautiful sister Jane. It’s been 24 years. I’ll never forget that call. Love you DeeDee Girl

[@SusiePearce-bt2vp]

A beautiful song, brings back memories

[@DarleneMclemore-no8zo]

Love you both found you two cause of your music an then a friendship

[@jerriebixler2687]

Tears miss you Cody's Momma's Simple Kinda Man 💙

[@vanessa-pu3vs]

Chris FUCKING Stapleton man. I cannot his voice is a freakin gift he gives me chills every time

[@kaymaness2364]

I like luke bryan but that chris an his voice is the one that makes this song an I'm glad he is being pulled up to the front instead of the background singer!! way to go chris!!!!!!

[@arcmay4]

Kay, Chris wrote that song.....

[@crazyguys121]

Luke Bryan revealed a legend amen brother amen

[@bonnette1215]

When you have the guy who wrote the song sit in with you for that song, don't you let him sing a verse?

[@PenaltyKillah]

Like what Justin Timberlake did for a song that Chris didn't even write, last CMAs

[@maitden]

+CJ Bonnette Chris has the better voice he would dominate.

[@dakota6]

+CJ Bonnette I imagine that you ( like me) got to this video because I searched Chris, not Luke. Had the reverse happened the top comment would be Luke's fans complaining that at a Luke Bryan concert luke isn't even singing.. The internet can't win

[@MrMomendoza22]

+CJ Bonnette Drink a BEER!!!

[@joyfulcleveland7077]

Chris is singing. Back up harmony, which is more difficult to do than sing lead. talented man!!

[@aubreedunn9576]

I had no idea that Chris Stapleton wrote that song for Luke, I’m like speechless about that right now! And I also know that his brother and his sister are very very very proud of that song, because it’s an honor of them. And it’s gorgeous and beautiful! I love Luke Bryan so much, I wish that I could meet him, that’s my dream to meet him and Keith urban. To be honest! I’m not really a big fan of Chris Stapleton that much, but broken halos and billionaire are the only two favorite songs that I love that’s basically it. I really hope that I don’t get any hate comments for that :-) please please please don’t do that.

[@stevenreese4036]

why would he need chris in his ear when he didnt even let him sing till the end my hats off to chris to be so humble with such amazing tallent and a voice second to none

[@joshfleurent924]

And that boys and girls, is how you respectfully but FIRMLY let the world know that you wrote that song, and that this is how it should sound. LoL Best male vocalist out there right now.

[@fishingwithnoah3323]

How could you dislike this

[@imblond2ify]

Simply amazing and SO talented!!! :-)

[@stephen7991]

Chris is just sitting there listening to Luke sing thinking "I out sing the shit out of you"

[@AnitaH-r3f]

Right??? Well, in hindsight we all now see that Chris is 100 times the artist that Luke Bryan is. And has probably outearned in just the last few years. Luke wishes he was Chris Stapleton.

[@yaboydeath2427]

more chris damn it !

[@tammieharper55]

Love you music Luke

[@mlitc001]

man i wish i could thumb this up more... chris stapleton is who church was singing about, that country music jesus

[@rossbourne809]

all respect to luke but do yourself a favor and skip to 4:15 which is why we all came to this video anyways

[@wulan41269]

+Ross Baker Thanks for saving my time. Exactly what I came here for.

[@SmileySmilerton]

+Ross Baker Haha, you nailed it on the head brother!

[@amymaclean7586]

[@diebem510]

[@EJones-ek4rx]

[@kathygudmundson7664]

jason- agreed Chris could blow him clear out of the Water!!& Luke knows it!He gets all shook in the end!🙌

[@keatonpower9043]

No kidding!! (last comment) Talk about gettin shown up!! By a guy who actually writes too! Haha I'm just so glad to see that Stapleton is finally starting to get the recognition he deserves. Wish he got to sing more of it, but still good on Luke for havin the guy up there.

[@lizdwyer3294]

I love both of these guys!!!!!!!

[@obiwanshanobi2662]

I just plain love me some Chris Stapleton

[@edwardnsandrarodgers3043]

sit down luke and let the legend show ya how to feel a song

[@EJones-ek4rx]

Chris has written almost every recent country hit! WTH is wrong with Nashville and WTH are we just finally getting to enjoy his vocal talent????

[@kaymaness2364]

thank you for letting me know that chris wrote this song, I didn't know.

[@dantebooker5645]

I started listening to country music because of Chris Stapleton.. but i love Luke Bryan too .. I don't know why u guys act like he sucks .. he makes amazing music ..

[@monicacervantes2231]

wish they had a 💖❤💗 button on here. ALL his songs...W.O.W!!!💞 I'm in love... hmmm😍

[@amberpedraza1457]

So long my friend until we meet again.

[@kevinpoland6139]

Baseball cap on backwards. That shows what he's like. Probably stands in when the sun shines and puts his hand up to keep the sun out of his eyes.

[@countrylyricist]

And shades upside down on the brim of the cap. 😄😄😄

[@bodhi1462]

Thank you so much for posting this ❤

[@medenajones250]

Makes. Me. Think of the old times with all three of my children before my youngest died without the beer of course

[@aarongoins1251]

Till we meet again Charles T! Love and miss you!

[@christinevendetti541]

Luke ur a good singer I love all ur music.

[@dwbxfactor3]

concert was awesome last night!

[@donnagotsch3519]

LUKE IS THE ONE SAVING COUNTRY music . Phenomenal voice . ❤❤❤ Luke spreading smiles for miles . ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dianerobinson8999]

Beautiful song Chris!

[@7empesTim]

Excellent songwriting....

[@josephmann9569]

All the talent on that stage was on the right

[@hogboyventura]

You got that right, "That's a singer right there" and a writer...... go figure Nashville.

[@stevenhodges3343]

Chris is fantastic. I'm not normally a fan of Luke Bryan but the two of them together are immaculate

[@dandaley661]

Both are great, but Chris is such a humble dude!

[@BassPlayer9000]

I liked this video the second I heard "drink a beer"🍺

[@23sadangel]

luke s one of the best out there

[@musicliver606]

People saying Chris is better than Luke: Their two voices aren’t comparable. They both have different sounds, so I don’t know how you can say one is better than the other. They may both sing country music, but they both have very different sounds.

[@frankprice2775]

Was there by stage where his instruments was in front row.

[@stacyeastland7138]

Chris Stapleton knows he can sing

[@JoeMarshall412]

4:00 mark is just amazing. And I love that Luke pays the respect Chris deserves.

[@sgtskins]

It woulda been sweet to see Chris just start belting it out and have Luke Bryan just stop and watch. But, he knew what was coming and he's such a humble dude.

[@jenniferhowell9996]

touching song to me anyways but to hear Chris Stapleton on it love it

[@jojenemasten7836]

This song I know exactly what is talking about.Because I lost my son 15 Years ago. From an accidental overdose. He has been real back with a need to too much cough medication. And it took his life. He died in 2009 In his bed. Ad and I and I was unaware makes you because he always slept late And I didn't want to wake him up. Then Ight before at 10:43 p.m. I turned off his TV and he was snoring., I shook him and woke him up, Told him mommy love you. When he was looked at 1:00 p.m. He was stone cold And hard. He was 26 At the time of his death.Mr.Bryan, I understand how bad it heand you hurt when you're lost someone you love so much. You never forget, But you have to remember WE WILL see them again!❤

[@NoelG314]

awesome writing skills..

[@tinal.hennessey8105]

April 21, 2022 Have a great night and sweet dreams. 💯

[@marcee200067]

Freakn Amazing!!!

[@jasonkishpaugh5304]

I hope Luke Bryan realizes that he shared the stage with a LEGEND!

[@freshbeanne]

He does now no doubt LMAO

[@scsusej09]

I love it !!!
