WILLIE NELSON - "Bird on a Wire"

[@margitkattner5220]

You hear the version from Willie...and you're lost...thank you for this Willie, i love you

[@ValDworzak]

I just love Willie. You can understand every wonderful word he sings - and he does so with feeling. Not the greatest voice, but he works for me.

[@andrewmyatt4450]

Didn't think anyone could add more to this song then along comes Willie

[@kennydobbins9644]

Did you ever hear Johnny Cash's version?

[@jamesmalcolm8041]

Oh Willie. Such soul. Willies take on Leonard's Hallelujah is haunting and unlike any version I've ever heard. Willie is silent listening music. one should listen as well as feel his music. So so sich wonderful man and his music. Everest.

[@nwk38]

Willie, a national treasure. The definition of country music. The cornerstone,the foundation if you will. That,s it,nothing more to say.

[@gerardlooram5365]

Golden voice. Deserves a place on Mount Rushmore. An American icon.

[@timsugg2173]

I don't care what song it is Willie Nelson makes it his.

[@kenmackie]

Once again Willie OWNS every song HE sings

[@liloldlady1]

Willie spins pure gold on this one. Perfection.

[@ginabutler1886]

[@davidboskett5581]

Willie is a singer who can make any song as good or better than the original version

[@Gorzon567]

My heart skips a beat when you sing

[@alliecat1941]

I have never before heard Willie Nelson sing so tenderly. Hans Rosenthal (A.H.H.D.)

[@terryallen2495]

Willie owns this one...best rendition.

[@kennewicksheri]

Love this.. how WIllie sings this classic of Leonard Cohen.. His way of coming in a beat before or after the note... the jazz quality of his voice.. Thank you for sharing this... Thank you .......

[@sschmidt1170]

I just remember of every day with you ! Thanks for all.....

[@andreapearl6314]

It breaks my heart, but grateful to get to hear it. My son, Wesley Lish, had his daughter, Jade, to play this at his funeral on April 27th, 2011. Thanks.

[@zlatko55istra]

Andrea Pearl wish I could hug you now andrea

[@andreapearl6314]

[@andreapearl6314]

Joe Stock Thanks Joe. I'm so sad.I miss my son so much.

[@720080027]

+Andrea Pearl I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your son! I also lost my son, Lars Mickelson, in a motorcycle accident May 29th, 2011. I miss him all the time. He left us a 5 week old baby girl, Hailey!

[@karla3033]

In my opinion, sung the Willie Nelson way, shows both the greatness of the song and the singer. A perfect sample why I spend way too much time here at YT (in my wifes opinion)

[@hildaalvarez-strang9023]

I love this cover.

[@sandradewet-vandenberg3396]

[@kennydobbins9644]

Did you ever hear Johnny Cash's version?

[@sandradewet-vandenberg3396]

And here I am again to listen ... Leonard Cohen, Danielle Pascal and Willie Nelson... the one just as good as the other. A Song that will ever live in my heart!

A Leonard Cohen piece of work, Willie knocks it out of the park....

[@Chefwylde]

This is by Leonard Cohen, but Willie does an amazing job with it ;)

[@lovemygazebo]

[@kennydobbins1345]

Check out Johnny Cash's version.

[@framar4653]

E' la versione che preferisco piu' di quella del suo autore il grandissimo leonard cohen vero poeta.

[@TheAudinator]

Great version for sure, also try fairport convention sandy denny version for a different experience, she sounds like she’s from another planet or the ethereal plane.

[@manuelaleal8054]

❤️

[@altereddogma]

A song peformed beautifully by Willy Nelson, but written by Leonard Cohen.

[@nealniederman3682]

I love Willie's version of this song. Can anyone tell me which album it's on?

[@chrisfinney5229]

It's from an incredible - but mostly unavailable tribute record to Leonard Cohen, called "Tower of Song"

[@octopod992]

National Treasure. That's all.

[@reginabillotti]

At first I thought the intro to this video was part of the song and got confused.

[@MultiChaga]

Farewell Leonard...

[@paulmartin2586]

That intro is a real buzzkill ... I couldn't listen to the tune after. It totally blew my mood.

[@Bluesrainbluesrainbow]

[@rufuspain33]

[@idicula1979]

Everyone tries in there way, but it turns out we are flies to a spider web, in death that is where life's immensity and times infinate is conquered.

[@germanquintero10121946]

EXQUISITO

[@beybarys]

Johnny Cash's sounds better in this case...
