I’m a big Willie Nelson fan. I screamed like an idiot when I heard his voice in the ride to valentine sequence

But he is wrestling with a giant''.

Crazy how we're all so emotionally attached to a guy who never existed.

[datboi]

As a Willie Nelson fan, I was so happy when I heard him sing in rdr2!

[Blackth]

I absolutely BAWLED my eyes out when this song came on for RDR2. Just lost a best friend recently and this hit so close to home that I simply broke down. RIP Byron!

It is weird how much I learned from a person who never existed

"we are outlaws in a world that don't want us no more" Arthur Morgan

“We can’t change what’s done, we can only move on.” -Arthur Morgan

[jadens]

Can we all just stop and appreciate how RD2 was such a good video game that we all get nostalgic about it like as if Arthur was a man we were best friends with?

[MrEnder]

Arthur Morgan when arriving at heaven's gate: *Kicks gate open*


Arthur: *HAHA! FOUND YOU, LENNY!*

The duality of this song and the John riding scene is uncanny. They both have this weird feeling of nostalgia, which is even more present if you played the first game. They both have such a subtle, yet very real feeling of a happy moment wrapped in a sad reality. John's riding into town to get a loan from the bank, but to buy a ranch to make his wife happy. The song, while seemingly happy and positive, the lyrics are surprisingly sad, which helps you understand the scene. John is hurting, but he's not complaining or crying, he's just, as the song says best, moving on.

Ain't nothing fair".

As of typing this i have just completed my first playthrough of Red dead redemption 2 and it is the greatest experiences iv ever had. Its not a game its an experience and a magnificent story.

[chadaudinet]

never heard this before. My cousin who was like a brother recently committed suicide and this was requested by him to be played at his funeral. That was the first I heard this. Part of the words to this song are also engraved on his headstone. Now I sit and listen to this over and over and I can actually hear his thoughts in the words. Very emotional and Willie's voice adds to that emotion! May you finally have peace Brian!

"Me too, sweetheart. Me too."
