His voice is mesmerizing. I hope you’ve had a chance to hear him sing with his wife, Morgane, who is also his background singer. They are brilliant together. I just saw them in LA on 6/10 and my mind was blown. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Classifying him as just a Country singer does not do him justice - he’s a blues-country-soul-rock singer, and possibly the only one I’ve seen, ever. I love seeing people hear him for the 1st time, and the reaction is always the same - sheer amazement. Thanks for posting this. ✌🏼

Brides G, Talking about dope. Didn't she O.D. on D O P E ? ...

[@carolejameson9261]

Love your appreciation for music from my younger years! Willie Nelson is fabulous and has so so many songs. You might appreciate his ‘Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground’. It will make you weep.

Chris is a breath of fresh air to Country Music, love to listen to him and I have seen him sing with his wife .😍

[@angb6561]

Chris is the only person I can think of (right off hand) that is legitimately BETTER LIVE than recorded. Always opt for live performances when you do a reaction video.

[@TNT66762]

David Draiman (Disturbed) is vocally better live also.

[@LibbyONeal09]

Gary Clark, Jr and John Mayer are also 1000x better live than on record. I feel like the record companies over produce their work to make it more commercially viable.

If you are American, you probably won’t know this guy, however I’m going to mention him, because he is great! His name is John Farnham! He’s an Aussie like me! Please check him out! Like me he is not young anymore, however he is awesome!

[@nicksurfs1]

He sings “you should probably leave” with his wife Morgane Stapleton live at I think the Grammys a couple years ago. It’s one of the most soulful things I’ve ever heard. Like there’s no way they didn’t make a baby immediately afterwards. It’s a must listen!

[@IFIXATVS]

He sings a lot of his songs with his wife and really it just makes him all the more amazing!

[@loriesteves2701]

A lot of people don't realize how great of a singer Morgaine is.

[@Cindee-Schnitman]

THAT’S ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHRIS SONGS. You should probably leave 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷

[@sherrihatcher6144]

That is the blues baby!

[@1tbounty]

This dudes vocal chords been touched by an angel. 🎶

[@sirsimonthesentry4787]

You really need to hear it when Morgane, his wife, is providing harmonies. Her voice is beautiful (she wasn’t with him because she was about to give birth!) Also, you need to watch this with Justin Timberlake at the 2015 CMAs. They also played JT’s Drink You Away and it has to be the best male live duet EVER! And I am not only one who says it. It was that performance that launched Chris into the stratosphere and he is staying there!

When I say I LOVE Chris Stapleton!! Omg. Im so glad more people are giving him a chance.

[@loredanadodson1602]

Chris Stapleton voice is amazing ,blues blues ❤❤

[@lauriebutler4115]

Watch his performance of this song at the CMA award show when he won for this song. His buddy Justin Timberlake joined him for a show stopping performance. It’s a must see and is on KZbin.

[@nikkibanning176]

Yes!!!

[@jamesjohnston1935]

Gotta watch the whole performance. The Mix of JT and CS is just magical when they do a song by each performer.

[@5280BIG]

Thats no lie!!! That performance was outta this world!!

[@liljoey71]

The song “say something “ with him and jt

[@lindalou5213]

One of my favorite performances - get over there and watch it ! Run, don’t walk !

[@barbarawalsh4936]

Did you watch the Super Bowl? Best National Anthem -bar none. Chris Stapleton is the man.

[@rachelmorales3870]

Chris Stapleton is magic. His music is wonderful, emotional and amazing.

[@babsdrumm4205]

Brother, Chris Stapleton is one of the best of the best.. KUDOS TO HIM😊😊 ❤❤❤❤

[@nancydavid6854]

Glad you enjoyed hearing him. His wife is also one hell of a singer. When they sing together, it is truly magic

[@sherrygoldman8938]

This is the song for traveling at night with only the dashboard lights and the love of your life driving. This cat can sing and he definitely have a soulful voice, you feel the song.

[@michellemhughes]

I am not a country music fan, but I absolutely love this song. Heard it at my daughter’s house last year in Tennessee. Bluesy sounding to me. I am with you on live performances.

[@MichaelReese-i3n]

Go listen to him singing the national Anthem ❤❤❤❤❤

[@carolinatxan]

Yes!

[@sherryherrick6567]

He was outstanding!
