That's how i got to Memphis - The Newsroom cast

The song played in memory of Charlie Skinner in the last episode of The Newsroom from HBO. I don't own any rights about it, but i think it was a really great TV moment.
The video is flipped to avoid copyright problem

[@mikey1941]

I've saved the whole episode. I was crying like a baby by the time the song was over. This was what television drama should be and so often isn't. One of the best television drama series in years, and it certainly left me wanting more.

[@Matty11209]

Charlie: Oh, that's right, you play guitar on the side. Will: I'm a newsman on the side.

[@jportercomedy]

I miss the Newsroom.

[@jeremyratliff5175]

John Porter me too! Best and most intelligent show! However I think madame Secretary is almost as good!

[@almond2597]

aren't we all ?

[@wrotenwasp]

Damn, Jeff Daniels does a hell of a job on this one. Tom T would be proud.

[@mastercfromhalo3]

I damn near cried at this point in the episode. Super bummed it's over :(

[@KimboDiddy]

A shame it had to end.

[@vanityclair]

To think that there are some horrible shows that are at their 100th season and they couldn't even let this masterpiece a few more episodes to finish. Such a beautiful tv show.

[@JilBrowne]

I keep praying it's just a dream. Amazing Show!!!

[@JamesB00n]

vanityclair Aaron Sorkin, the creator of the show didn't had enough story for more episodes. He is the reason why the show ended not HBO. The network begged him to continue working on the show but he refused.

[@TreesOnTheBeach]

JamesB00n I hate to say it, but it was definitely time. Season 1 was absolutely amazing, but the entire direction of the show changed after that, and it went downhill badly.

[@bradfach]

I am going to miss this show a lot... A real, intelligent, classy show... of a caliber the world may never see again :(

[@ericblair9103]

A wonderful ending to one of the most wonderful TV shows I have ever watched. And I say that as a Brit.

[@phizekes7162]

The Newsroom covered most of the important political, monetary, and social issues of the period from 2010 - 2014, and went out the way it started; with a whole lot of class. That's How I Got To Memphis was the perfect song to bring the show around full circle, which is what the final episode did. Aaron Sorkin is brilliant at what he does as the Newsroom is the latest addition to his brilliance. I'm sorry to see the show come to an end, but we all would have been sorrier had the Newsroom not have happened at all. Thanks for the upload. Peace.

[@annesaturley3181]

Phizeke S I think I never liked a country song as much as That's how. I got to Memphis, and without this

[@annesaturley3181]

Sorry without this show I'd probably never have heard it. So simple but it really touches my heartstrings. I did know Jeff Daniels was a semipro musician.

[@andrewroberts8139]

Oh come on, you know the Newsroom fell short of greatness

[@Gromit801]

The image is reversed.

[@dancingfool512011]

I absolutely agree,,

[@JerseyStateLine]

Just so everyone knows, HBO did not cancel The Newsroom. Aaron Sorkin (the show's creator) chose to end it to focus on other endeavors. Great finale for a great series!

[@CLEEN50]

I came across this show at such a key time in my life. Probably my favorite series of all time. This scene/song was culmination of so many things, it was impossible not to get worked up about it. Will McAvoy was a man's man. Such a shame it only made it to 3 seasons. The Newsroom stays in constant rotation. Bravo to everyone who was involved in this brief but inspirational series.

[@ronaldtubbs9674]

Cool beans right there

[@Chamojku]

2020 and still listen to this video at least once every week!

[@Cristiana-15_09]

2023 and I'm still crying Charlie's death... Best show I ever seen, best ending of all times 😊 this last episode was such a love letter to fans 💖

[@LeahElisheva]

I’m still crying also 😢😢😢

[@flhrick1]

I just finished binge watching all three seasons again .. an amazing show with an amazing cast. This show should be brought back .. it's damn near prefect

[@havocproltd]

"The last time I saw Charlie, he was in his office cleaning his shotgun with a bottle of Maker's Mark muttering, "kill the wabbit, kill the wabbit!'"

[@ilovebrandnewcarpets]

Three seasons of amazing television I come back to this song a couple times a year. I think we can all relate to it in one way or another

[@tahcria]

I've never heard of this show,but they did a great version of this song!Thank you so much for sharing!

[@utubeDaveutube]

the show is incredible --- right from the 1st episode. :)

[@bobbybob2573]

Lyrics: If you love somebody enough, you'll follow wherever they go That's how I got to Memphis, that's how I got to Memphis If you love somebody enough, you'll go where your heart wants to go That's how I got to Memphis, that's how I got to Memphis I know if you'd seen her, you'd tell me 'cause you are my friend I've got to find her and find out the trouble she's in If you tell me that she's not here, I'll follow the trail of her tears That's how I got to Memphis, that's how I got to Memphis She would get mad and she used to say, that she'd come back to Memphis someday That's how I got to Memphis, that's how I got to Memphis I haven't eaten a bite or slept for three days and nights That's how I got to Memphis, that's how I got to Memphis I've got to find her and tell her that I love her so I'll never rest till I find out why she had to go Thank you for your precious time, forgive me if I start to cryin' That's how I got to Memphis, That's how I got to Memphis...

[@Toddness87]

Thanks for putting this up; I loved this version!

[@Zardo]

After the episode finished i was looking for it... i couldn't find it so i decided to upload it!

[@bobcunningham9951]

Matteo Zardini Thanks !

[@ladylistera774]

Yes, thanks so much. It's really a great song, and I hadn't heard it before I watched the episode.

[@sherman538]

Bought tth's greatest hits when I was 16 or 17...on cassette... 20 years later I am glad to hear this song again, on my favorite show, no less.

[@harryeisenberg]

With West Wing and The Newsroom Sorkin has created some of the absolutely greatest moments in television drama. His writing is educational, emotional and riveting. What a loss to all of us if he stands by his statement that TV maybe has seen the last of him.

[@johnkeith2450]

Memphis is a metaphor, it is anywhere you are. You are where you are because you followed your heart.

[@golde212]

This is a great cover of this song. Id buy this cover on itunes.

[@alexconway7213]

One of the things that Sorking can do is concede soul to a particular scene. It could be seen as inspire, precious moments, but they have a meaning of its own. The song itself says, in a way, "who I am now and how I've got here (and why)", and so does the episode. Daniells plays it beautifly, Gallagher Jr. too, and yet its not focus on their characters but on the boy, Bo, so the song can relieve his pain and doubts.

[@wokeabovedirt2day]

They need to reconsider ending this show, it's a great show.

[@TheSoxygirl]

Jeff's playing his Custom Martin OM Jeff Daniels Guitar. He's quite accomplished and is going to be touring in beginning in Jan. If he's coming to your town, highly recommend his show. He's legit.

[@TheLastCol]

Would love it if he toured with John Gallagher Jr.

[@QueerAndUnplugged]

I LOVE Martin guitars. I've got 2 D-35s...one is almost 50 years old and the other is a 2010. Late at night when no one's around and it's quiet they sing with harmonics to die for...I'll check out Jeff if he comes to San Francisco.

[@pamm5287]

I Just Found Out Tonight What A Talented Musician He Really Is. I Looked Him Up On Twitter & That's How I Found This Wonderful Gem. ❤

[@dancingfool512011]

It brought tears to my eyes watching this

[@dancingfool512011]

I would def go see him

[@briangardner6281]

What a great show this was

[@hambonejonesgb]

Jeff Daniels sings Tom T. Hall. Awesome, way too cool!

[@FlowerChild65]

Lovely scene. I will miss this show so much.

[@Casablanca530]

this was such a great scene. this and his speech after really tied the show up nicely

[@dg8998]

cancelling the show is wrong in so many ways. will dearly miss it, had become one of my all time favorite shows, this particular episode happens to be one of the best I have encountered

[@The1709Gaming]

The creator of this show decided to not to proceed with it because he went to work on other endeavor

[@AverageCarGuy]

Amazing show. I can't believe the show has ended.

[@kurt666morris]

Thanks for posting this clip. God I miss this show. :)

[@Sammy-qq8hq]

Love this show so much, I actually want to cry

[@Naila.360]

Seriously I am so sad that I just watched the series and I fall in love with this song, it's the song of my life.

[@rentahippie]

Sure wish this show was still on I always looked forward to watching it each week. That is a great song never heard it before this show

[@MarcCostaMusic]

What a great serie! One of my favorites...

[@karenholden7526]

I wish Jeff would have recorded this on his latest album. His version is my favorite. Roseanne Carter does a good version as well.

[@gregautryphoto]

One of my ALL TIME Top 10 TV shows. Needs to come back for a special season, NOW

[@stevewisniewski5860]

Music heals, thank you again.

[@perryward1951]

I LOVE THIS SONG. I DISCOVERED IT ON NEWSROOM THIS WEEK, THIS EPISODE OF NEWSWEEK WAS ONE OF THE BEST TELEVISION SHOWS EVER MADE! THIS IS A RARE HAPPENING. IT WAS TRUELY THE BEST NEWSROOM AND IT IS ONE OF THE ALL TIME BEST TELEVISION SHOWS EVER MADE. NEWSROOM WILL BE MISSED.

[@quirtdrozario856]

Love this. Always turn to it on the youtube. Beautiful.

[@eyarbroughzone]

This was a nice segment. What a great song.

[@bondjam8]

I wathecd this show this week for the forst time. It was INCREDIBLE. The cast, the story, the characters. Just wonderful. I dont know if I ever gave 10/10 for a series on IMDB before

[@danaid.jdenga527]

Aaron Sorkin is so talented, annoyed the show is over, it was so good, this moment was so great.

[@bobbydimes8167]

It truly was... one of the best moments in TV viewing.

[@debbieschwartz5287]

thanks, one of the best shows/episodes in the history ot tv. i miss it!

[@stevewisniewski5860]

Thank you for such a wonderful show.

[@oyyour]

I hope this turns a whole bunch of new people on to the great Tom T. Hall

[@jessicawalker8564]

We've all been to Memphis and back...love this rendention!

[@bigal25938]

They picked a great song.

[@roberttomanek5353]

Najlepsze wykonanie tego utworu.

[@manoelamachado3014]

I just looooved that moment! This is perfect.

[@whitneydevlin4136]

Today, I was privileged enough to be in close proximity with this incredibly talented man! I will never forget this moment…

[@MayankVishalLabh]

It's a great show Loved it

[@mksrex]

When I saw this I could stop rewinding it playing over again--To me one of tv's highest point ever! Heart throb !

[@Ken4Pyro]

Non so perché sto piangendo, ma questo è così bello le lacrime appena flusso ...

[@The60s4ever]

Talent, Genius, and Passion is demonstrated by the writers and actors. The finale was totally awesome. It would be a tough act to follow.

[@karolus522]

Thanks for this great clip !Dont forget to hear too the french version 'sur la Route de Memphis' by Eddy Mitchell

[@margieerwin5798]

Awesome performance.

[@tornedo623]

Best tv series hands down. Love from Bangladesh.

[@brianjoyce9040]

So great so darn great. Gives just a hint of mist to the corner of the eye

[@ahmedalmrwani5455]

thanks for the fancy post!!

[@chrism.4600]

What a great way to end a great series, :-)

[@wydawake]

It would have been great to see how the storyline of the show developed with Mackenzie as head of ACN & the dynamics between her with new owner Pruitt & with Will becoming a father… Still a lot of life left for the show to continue…Shame on #HBO for ending a great show so soon.

[@kernalkunt]

HBO didn't end the show. Sorkin did. HBO wanted multiple seasons.

[@wydawake]

Then shame on Sorkin for not following through with extra seasons.

[@jevgenkova]

Didn't he said that he'd do just 3 seasons and that's it ?

[@szymanskidesign5641]

Sorkin wasn't happy with the series. Said he never felt there was an episode he got completely right. He left it to write the Steve Jobs movie. In my opinion, The Newsroom is his best work to date.

[@JasonUmbrellabird]

Jim Harper comes in and the left handed guitar has a capo placed on the 4th fret so he can play the song transposed perfectly.

[@Kevin-tz2lv]

He's righty, the video is flipped

[@dhd951]

I wish there was a few more season's of that show... But, thank you HBO for putting that on the air.

[@robjustaguy]

Heartbreaking..... so moving... wish they’d bring it back

[@robertrockwell7581]

why is this video backwards.?. love this version and Tom T. Hall's too.

[@scottwpilgrim]

To avoid getting taken down for copywrite.

[@SquiggyLives]

I paused the video at 0:43 and went back to work. Pulled the video up again like 4 hours later and had no idea what the hell I had been watching.

[@chang-kp9sp]

This newsroom is well written , and casted that we don't see often.

[@TheSecretpinky]

I wish they had recorded this in a studio at some point.

[@DarleneChanYTChannel]

Nice. LOL. Image is flipped here though.

[@jcclark7003]

I love this song he's good 💙💚😍😎❤️

[@alanmoore4437]

I didn't notice the flip until the fist bump at the end, then re-watched it. I was going to comment on the flip but then noticed it already mentioned in the comments.

[@chenchen0613]

I love this show

[@fuzzpow]

how comes the video is mirrowed left-right?? all the musician here are left handed. I've seen another version in which they play right handed...

[@Kevin-tz2lv]

So they don't get booted for copywrite infringement

[@LyricPhil]

I hope they throw in an actual recording of this with the season 3 release :D

[@GetThePun]

it ended?!?! i haven't been this sad for a long time

[@derblae52]

Television at it's best.Sorry to see it go.Aaron Sorkin is one of the best writers in entertainmet.

[@administratorgsc5121]

beautiful

[@novosibirisktuku]

charlie was there somewhere swaying his head to the tune.

[@camper88]

Everyone's a lefty. I love it.

[@Denis-qn1jg]

God I miss this show...

[@mel-wv6lw]

lovely moment

[@Hopebaker52]

J'ai tellement aimé cette série! Ce serait chouette d'avoir une suite...

[@multicaruana]

Is this is a country group? Who are these people? Who is Charlie Skinner? He passed away? And the "Newsroom Cast"? Is this a group or an act of some sort? Do they have other songs. The whole things is done so naturally, some kind of rehearsed spontanaity. Whatever it is I love it.

[@ZacMetal99]

"Go to the five"*has no frets*

[@hemavanbelleghem1958]

This is a lot better than the original

[@melanieanderson8140]

Hema Van Belleghem , lets not get carried away now.

[@multicaruana]

This is pretty great- totally!

[@ashleighelizabeth5916]

I'd love to see these three play a set together, I mean an honest to goodness MTV Unplugged style hour long set!

[@USEditor]

***** Why did you flip the video?

[@TunedIn1]

great version but none of them are left handed... the clip has been flipped :)

[@Zardo]

Of course, if i want that this video wont be canceled anytime soon!

[@SushantRawale]

One of the awesome series.... But why the video is mirrored?

[@MrPeterpiper1969]

It avoids a copywright 'takedown'.

[@DanCohoon]

my mom died in Memphis. Thank You

[@DanCohoon]

this is so fucking beautiful

[@StevenSpolar]

Excellent song choice written by legend Tom T. Hall - The Hemingway of Country Music. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3Wrh2eGir-pnbs

[@FlatlandMando]

Isn't it odd to have 2 left- handed guitarists in the same song? Or am I just seeing things.

[@samueldixon9028]

Bass player is playing left-handed as well. I think that this might be flipped.

[@wsimons888]

TV is a far less interesting place since we no longer have The Newsroom. Best series I've ever watched.

[@kiwigo0000]

Best show ever

[@VolcyThoughts]

I wish they continued. I would've loved to see how they covered Trayvon Martin & Furgeson

[@bladactania]

A show gone way before it should have.
