Your music from the past during my youth gave me hope. Today’s world and country we live, gives me no hope. Every day I see and hear a wicked old man, with his words destroying young people’s hopes and dreams. Never have I had so much hate for a fellow human being. I do love your music Carole.

Ain’t it beautiful, he has a friend. Hey, wait a second. I got an idea for a song.

I like his music, but his Penis Poem made me a fan. 🤣

Willie, Linda Ronstadt was my first choice, and until she comes knocking on my door professing eternal love, I'll stay with my wife of 35 years. Like Avis, she tried harder. (Linda, if you're listening to… just a postcard would be great) Willie & Linda, two of the best singers on earth.

Happy Birthday to Willie Nelson. He's 93 today! We're playing his duet with Orville Peck - "Cowboys are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other." So Good!

Happy Birthday, Willie! 🎶🎸🎶 What's a favorite Willie Nelson song of yours? 🎶 Born in Abbott, Texas, on April 29, 1933, Willie wrote his first song at age seven and joined his first band at ten. During high school, he toured locally with the Bohemian Polka as their lead singer and guitar player. 👇

Willie's so magnificent. In '79, I was at the right place, right time--plus I was wearing my cowgirl hat--and given an onstage pass to sit on an amplifier near Willie for the show. So many songs to luv. 🎵Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain🎵

Who doesn't love Willie. My favorite story about him is when Snoop hung out with Willie on Willie's tour bus, and Snoop said that Willie smoked him under the table. 🤘

Happy birthday to Willie Nelson, who turned 93 today and is still out on the road, performing two nights ago at the Koka Booth Amphitheater in North Carolina. He is amazing. Here's a circa 1950 photo of Willie with his grandmother, Nancy Nelson who raised him.

Where does one even begin with Willie Nelson? With a playlist of the birthday boy's work, that's how. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair! humanizingthevacuum.wordpress.com/2020/06/05/p...

Celebrate Willie Nelson's 93rd birthday by listening to last year's Workin' Man: Willie Sings Merle, surely the greatest album released by a 92-year-old musician.
