ReplyWillie’s holds the honor of being the only person who can outsmoke Snoop Dogg Respect
ReplySeems Willie really loves his life😊. Well done Willie!
ReplyI got to see him for his 90th birthday concert it was fantastic(Long Live Willie!!)
ReplyMy brother loved willie nelson.
ReplyThat’s how i learned to love willie. I wasn’t a fan at first but he wouldn’t change the cassette. Yeah, it’s been a long time. Thanks for the memories.
great interview! love Willie.
ReplyKeep rockin Willie. We all need you more then ever.
ReplyWhy couldn’t he come into the studio?
ReplyWillie!!! ❤🤍💙
ReplyThe fact that he’s being inducted in the R&R just now tells you all need to know about that sham organization.
ReplyColbert is so cringe with all the really cool guests.
ReplyFunny Stephen hold up a record album cover, not a CD. So back to record players. I know records are still made and old records are valuable.
ReplyI was curious at least ten years ago to see how many songs he had written. At that time it was estimated at 2500. Ten years ago!!
Replymy favourite is one he didn’t write, jimmy webb’s highwayman which willie performed with waylon, kris & johnny, it was always on my mind till the petshop boys ruined it but i don’t suppose willie cares as it was a big hit, elvis version for me but i do prefer willie’s version of crazy as it is as he wrote it & chooses to sing it, a subtle difference from the patsy cline version, which is different than the elvis costello version which i also love.
ReplySlainte Willie ,
ReplyFrom Tir na nOg !
Willie is more coherrent than a lot of people who are likely half his age… I hope you see many more years good sir!
ReplyIt’s about darn time Willie Nelson is inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame. HAPPY BIRTHDAY WILLIE!!!! Thank you for all of your contributions to music and to American life!!! Thanks Stephen Colbert for this interview!
ReplyHappy Birthday Willie!….and many more….
ReplySomehow I’m not surprised that Colbert didn’t ask him the most important question, which of course would have been: “What do you think is the key to longevity?”
