"She knew the gun was empty and she knew she couldn't win" she pointed the empty gun at the cowboys so they would kill her. "And her final prayer was answered when the rifles fired again " great song.

[@LadyMacbeth56]

The song is about an outlaw and his lover who are trying to outrun a posse sent to return them to Texas. When they become cornered, they decide to fight the lawmen. Before the final fight, the two embrace, speaking of their belief that God will spare them.

[@jeffdetmer4681]

Ray loved country music. In fact he did 2 or 3 albums of entirely country music. I love this version so much. There is another very cool version by Jamey Johnson and Allison Krauss. Worth a listen guys!! Oh and there are other videos of these 2 singing together doing I can't stop loving you and Georgia on my mind. There are others too. Also you can find a duet with Ray and Hank Jr. This song was written by Troy Seals and Eddie Stetser.

Mrs Aguilar’s children all own a funeral home here in town . The whole family with in laws grandchildren and great grandchildren and great great grandchildren 86 of them all together drove down to Mexico . They brought her home and played this song all the way home , during the funeral it was played . The organist even at the Catholic Church we go too played it as they where taking her out of the church to the cemetery. This is such a beautiful song and Ray and Willie together is amazing

[@leslie7976]

I was going to say that too!

[@dakin7612]

Snoop Dogg actually said Willie was the only person he had ever met who could out smoke him. I'll Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again was written and performed by Toby Keith and Scott Emerged for Willie's birthday ( I think his 79th). It is funny, Willie hadn't heard it before the performance. I have learned all this watching reaction videos, not from personal experience.

[@rhondabaker1064]

I think this is my favorite reaction of you guys. Your respect for the greats is clear and you were very receptive about Willie. I remember watching this on t.v. at the time it debuted. I always took it that out of respect, Willie waited for Ray to invite him in.

[@Laniefj]

It's my favorite by far!!!!!!!!!!

[@Donnagilbert6497]

Just came upon you two! I enjoyed your reaction very much. Their harmonies give me goosebumps as well. Have you done Willie and Merle Haggard singing “Pancho and Lefty”? Another great duet. I wish you could sneak in another Texan, Stevie Ray Vaughan. We can call it Country Blues!!! Great job!

Glad you guys finally got to this song and your right the combination of Ray and Willie is always great. Two great OG’s that can sing virtually anything. ❤️

[@WaymoresBlues]

Ray Charles was a huge country music fan as well as an influential country music artist in his own right. He first started recording albums of country music in the early 60's. This song, Seven Spanish Angel's, was on an album of his of collaborations with other country artists, and this song with Willie charted at #1 on the Country singles charts. Also, on that same album, there was the song called 'Two Old Cats Like Us' recorded with Hank Williams Jr. Hank, who early in his career was pushed by his mother to sing more like his father, actually wanted to sound like Ray Charles and if you listen to a lot of Hank's music you can hear the influence of his idol. If you happen to get a chance to watch the biographical movie 'Ray' it addresses Ray's own love of country music. In the movie Jamie Foxx plays Ray which was perfect casting, not only because of his resemblance to Ray but because Jamie Foxx, who comes from a small Texas town, is also a huge country music fan and actually got to sing for his idol, George Straight, when Straight was honored as Artist of the Decade a few years back. Ray Charles, I'm proud to say, is also among those inductees into The Country Music Hall of Fame for 2022, and rightfully so.✌

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I've met Ray, and I had no idea about his involvement in country. - Keith

[@WaymoresBlues]

@@BourbonCountryReacts Ray Charles: Modern Sounds in Country Music Vol. I & 2 we're released in the early 60's. Although they sound more like a Blues album today, what with Ray Charles singing them, but there was a time once when there was little difference between hillbilly music and the Blues. Hank Williams sang the Blues and so does his boy Bocephus. Also the first artist signed to perform at the Grand Ole Opry was Deford Bailey a black harmonica player who was very popular in the south and who could get that mouth harp of his to make those train sounds like you often mention hearing guitarists do. Even the legendary Louis Armstrong recorded the song Blue Yodel #9 with the great Jimmie Rodgers who was then known as the singing Brakeman and today widely considered the grandfather of country music. That's a melting pot going way back considering Jimmie Rogers. Has been dead 89 years ago. BTW, Willie Nelson does a fine version of Jimmie Rodgers' In The Jailhouse Now with Webb Pierce that you might give a listen to.

[@jerricocke987]

Great reaction guys. I got to see Willie in concert oh I guess it was about 10 years ago and he performed he performed seven Spanish Angels solo. And it was different because it was definitely more of a country to delivery but it was powerful in its own right. And just for grins and giggles how about I throw in another Willie collab Toby Keith whiskey for My horses featuring Willie Nelson.

One little point I think you got wrong. You said she wanted to off herself. I don’t believe that’s the case. She picked it up and knew it was empty, and she couldn’t win (finish) the fight. So it was almost a suicide by cop…as she knew she didn’t want to survive without him. Other than that, great reaction to an exceptional song.

Good morning and thank you. Some of the most beautiful traditional Country to discover is Ray Charles.

There is a longer version of this song . I have been to a Willie concert and heard this performance and it was amazing, this was many many years ago. The coincidence of this song now is Willie’s sister Bobbie Nelson which was his piano player from the start has passed away on March 10th at the age of 91. Some other great ones to react to would be - The last thing I needed the first thing this morning or Pancho and Lefty a duet with Merle Haggard is an awesome song .

My dads piano player did this song and also played sax.

Your station makes me miss my Dad so much because this older stuff brings back so many good memories. A good reaction would be to Blake Shelton and Conway Twitty doing Goodbye time.

Snoop has said Willie out smokes him, hands down. Willie even did a song with Snoop - “Buy My Medicine”. He did another one with Merle “The Hag” Haggard another OG - “It’s All Going To Pot”. Released in 2015 about 2 old men talking current events….it’s just as spot on now as it was then.
