Why Me Lord

[@Imagodfollower]

ME & BOBBY MAGEE & WHY ME LORD ( my mom's favorite. )

[@TheTruebluesue]

I loved him in A Star is born and my favorite song was Sunday Morning Coming Down. He will be missed.

[@lelamadjiah8246]

Me and Bobby McGee, Sunday morning coming down, why me lord. Thank you, sir, for the beautiful music.

RIP Kris Kristofferson, hard to believe you're gone, but will never be forgotten

[@tking2731]

RIP Kris! Definitely one of the best!

[@HelenBowers-k9b]

Kris sang from his heart and i loved it. I am deeply saddened for the music world's loss...and also mine

[@MusingMule]

RIP Kris. From far away India. Me and Bobby McGee was anthem like in our undergraduate years in the mid 80s. In a world when music listening was on spools, cassettes and records. Been a while since I listened to much of Kris, but the news of his passing has me binge listening again. Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose. Truer words were never spoken.

[@joemcmillan2089]

Kris = Rhodes Scholar, Golden Gloves boxer, colonel, helicopter pilot, University Professor, writer, singer, movie star - to name a few highlights. RIP sir !!!

[@edkiely2712]

Legend!

[@EShelton-h2q]

Vaya con Dios. Thanks for The Circle.

[@danielasmeaton7947]

Rest In Peace Kris. I became a fan of Kris Krisofferson’s music through my mom who also used to love his music. Good memories.

[@michellejackson6679]

Kris was a rebel, I guess, back in the 60's.. but he was writing great music and was always relevant.. I've been a fan of this man for 3 decades.. maybe 4 because I was raised on true country music and he wrote many a great country song. He accomplished so much in his lifetime.. I'm heartbroken.. RIP Kris.

[@Jebbie1976]

Go with God Kris. Thanks for the memories.💔

[@trishajury2959]

R.I.P Kris Kristofferson. Will miss you deeply!😘😘

[@SanFernandoValleyRose]

I don't have a favorite song and I never watched any of his movies but I liked when he did "Sunday Morning Coming Down" and "Me and Bobby McGee". For all the drinking Kris did and any drug and cheating problems he did he sure cleaned up his act and lived a long time. Now he is flying free Rest Easy Kris.

[@SusanWalk-yf3ro]

We're going to miss you, Kris. My most favorite song was and still is "Why Me Lord" and my favorite movie of all time is Convoy.

[@dorothybohlman9759]

I listened to him fifty years ago over and over

[@gracemoore1529]

Miss you Kris! He was an inspiration to all, just love all he did👍💯times. R.I.P dear brother. Condolences to all family and friends. I must add his songs was the best of all times.✅

[@Imagodfollower]

R.I.P Kris prayers 🙏 for family & friends. We are losing all the greatest entertainers on earth. A very sad moment for everyone who loves country music.

[@jeanineshiman8228]

I think what was so special about kris kristoffersons, is wasn't about being popular or all into impressing people, he just wanted all of us to love his music, an we did, an ultimately, can never be replaced, he made a good name for himself that will go on,until the end of time, I will miss you my friend , that you never knew ❤

[@Jesusexplains]

❤❤ ❤ MY ODE TO KRIS … I’d rather hear this old frog croak out his songs with soul, than to hear from some perfectionist play empty rock n roll! And I’d rather hear forgotten words from his aching, breaking heart, than to hear some latest tune that somehow made the charts. 🎶 Yes, Kristofferson’s my hero, through his crazy ups and downs. He has set the hallmark, has the right to wear the crown. Yes, Kristofferson’s my hero, through years and many miles. Whenever I hear his music, it always brings a smile. 🎶 Then in the twilight on the stage, more faded than his jeans, words fell like gilded treasures, more valued than they seem. But I’d rather this old frog croak out out his songs with soul, than to hear from some perfectionist play empty rock n roll … …

[@roselouis6646]

We'll said

[@anumitra3627]

Beautifully said. Agree 100%. I saw him with the Highwaymen in 1995, and it is a cherished memory. I remember when Kris sang Sunday Morning Coming Down, a weatherbeaten older man sitting next to me got excited and exclaimed, "that's it, that's my song!" And I realized how the words of a Rhodes scholar was touching people across many sections of society. Kris was a wonderful songwriter whose songs told stories, spoke to us and inspired us. One of my all time favorites.

[@Jesusexplains]

@@anumitra3627 By an absolute miracle, I too got to see Kris perform his songs in an intimate setting in Australia mid-2000s in Sydney. And by an even bigger miracle, that poem/song got into Kris’s hands in 2017 and I got a phone call from Lisa, his wife, to tell me Kris was very encouraged by he words of that poem/song.

[@dawnwennberg9884]

Well done. So long to another legend. I'm going to have a beer for dessert. RIP

[@ryankelly2851]

Although he passed two days ago, I only found out today. RIP Kris😔😔🙏🙏 Willie is now the last man standing

[@ladyrancher74]

I know it's sad! We are losing all our great Singers!

[@ryankelly2851]

And yet, today's "country" (Luke Combs, Zac Bryan, Morgan Wallen, etc) think that they sing traditional country. What they sing is pure horse 💩

[@117Pinkyflower]

So sad. 😢 RIP. Kris Kristofferson 😢

[@milospetelin4012]

All my heroes are leaving and now left the greatest of all. Greatest songwriter, greatest poet... Heartbroken 💔 R.I.P

[@roselouis6646]

Those years of great, and heartfelt music is disappearing. Your music was some of my favourite. Go with God and rest in peace❤🙏🙏🙏

[@1Hughjarse]

The greatest lyricist in music history. RIP

[@Me20241]

Great video....thanks for sharing

[@branko4033]

Takes me back to the late 70's and early 80's, to summer night beach parties here in the Adriatic coast, in Croatia. Guys would be feeling up chicks while I was groping a guitar. They had beer bottles where I had a mouth harp and sang stuff like Sunday Morning, Bobby Mc Gee and To Beat The Devil. Thanks for nothing, Kris 😂😎👍 May you forever rest in peace, bro. Thanks for being there for me and for so many of us. 🙏⚘️🇺🇸

[@defendfreedom777]

Kris I think had a foreboding feeling that he was reaching the end and the last year before he passed he began putting his house in order so to speak,I will miss him and I hope his song so help me Jesus I know what I am is an indication that he is in a happy place on the other side singing his heart out with the angels.

[@lorettagallegos2558]

Safe journey kris 🙏

[@FeatheredLife]

He went to sing with his friends Johnny and Waylon. Sing loud so we can hear the ones we miss.

[@patriciaprice9533]

Kris was Great! I grew up with him. Not literally but as a fan. This is very very sad😢 only one of the “Outlaws” left now

[@henrilouisecarter2777]

Thanks for the 💋, Kris!

[@tammyleal4092]

RIP kris Kristofferson. Great singer ,sonwriter, you will be missed

[@beckyc5930]

Remembering first song I recall him doing...Why Mr Lord

[@jamarmiller]

I came to knew him from the BLADE movies and instantly loved him in those movies and wanted to see more of him

[@BettyZelindki]

I loved everything about him.He was the series man alive. He will be missed severely.

[@beckyc5930]

❤

[@f1release]

R.I.P he was very good in his work The Outlaw

[@grumpyowl3515]

R.I.P. Kris. Whistler was your best movie role. Now I'm off to watch Christmas in Connecticut.

[@margaretleinster5129]

When it comes down to it Chris was just a very special person ❤rip

[@sandrakenney567]

Rest in peace kris Godbless you Amen 🙏🕊🦋🌹🐬🦉🌹🦋🕊🙏

[@Leslie-es5ij]

Epitaph black and blue 💙 really reminds me of J. J. So heart felt 😢

[@0123454272]

Firstly, always loved Kris Kristofferson… But no spoiler alert needed just because movie is old. If a movie is good, doesn’t matter the age of it. Sadly, those who gage life as so, miss out on so much of the human experience…

[@briantilke]

Janice Joplin didn't record Me and Bobby McGee she murdered it , there are far better versions of the song out there, including Kris version, Kriss Kristofferson was one of the greatest song writers we ever had, so much respect and thank you for it all, bless you and RIP dear friend, love from the UK 🇬🇧🇺🇲

[@Evillt1]

Kris was just one cool guy 😎 a good Ole boy! Larger than life kinda guy!

[@mikeb3986]

A man’s man. Lived life his way, right or wrong. A mistake he had a few but his way.

[@DiannaLeiby-vw6se]

😢He will be missed

[@georgesasi]

He was a cool guy. His best movie was 'Dreamer' not mentioned. Nice to leave a legacy. RIP

[@TasteofCountryMusic]

YES! Good one.

[@BettyZelindki]

I loved that movie

[@ianfeuerhake1859]

RIP to the Duck

[@kennethb.drinkard2010]

"I liked his voice,Will,he was real"

[@maryt.cooley5732]

I could listen to Me and Bobbie MGGree everyday or more. Most if his songs were very enjoyable to listen to even though Willie thought his singing stunk.

[@branko4033]

May you find eternal peace, silver tongued devil 🙏⚘️

[@edkiely2712]

Only Willie's left now!

[@rhettcorbett3346]

So sad.😪😪😪. RIP Rubber Duck. Quack Quack.

Hi

[@sandraelder1101]

You keep saying Cooleridge. She’s Rita Coolidge.

[@TasteofCountryMusic]

Your right. We threw in an extra "R"😫

[@bonnierohr9544]

@@TasteofCountryMusic “You’re” right, as long as we’re making corrections 🤭

Coolidge Not CoolERidge!

Never thought Kris was a great singer.. come on. he wasn't... but songwriting.. don't mess with him. I feel that you're not being respectful to Kris.. don't like this at all .. You're making fun of this man.

[@RTfan2010]

Coolidge.

[@ruthhodgson3635]

👍 I was hoping someone would correct that😊

[@nitalay5317]

To Beat The Devil ((sing) and Trouble in Mind (film). Willie was mistaken about Kris's voice. His own versions are more soulful. Some people just don't get it. Fools!!

[@colleenllanos1026]

Not subscribing to your channel. Just not interested in how you deliver the news. Was gonna subscribe but your words delivered didn’t impress me.

[@BflyMom_212]

@Taste of Country You did no justice for a man who fought hard for what he accomplished in his lifetime. One of the worst reviews I've seen. He deserved better from You! IMO

[@JasonHalversonjaydog]

great songwriter but was never a fan of his singing voice

[@rickuyeda4818]

He could write but to me, he couldn't sing.

[@edkiely2712]

Nothing wrong with that. Many feel Jim Morrison, Axl Rose, Curt Cobain, Bob Dylan, or Taylor Swift can sing that well either!

[@Bikesandbowties]

He couldn't act or sing

[@gracemoore1529]

Miss you Kris! He was an inspiration to all, just love all he did👍💯times. R.I.P dear brother. Condolences to all family and friends.
