Very hard to get this song covered how it should be. That being said this guy did an excellent job.

I grew up to Hank and Slim Whitman, thanks dad! This is not bad, but Hank could make you cry! He was living hard but singing from his heart. 🥃 Here's to you Dad and Hank, cheer's ❣️

Nothing should surprise me anymore from Chris Thile, but I didn’t know he was such a good yodeler.

Not an easy song to cover, but he does a great job.

Needs a little more "umpf" in his verses, but the choruses are sung fantasticly. Props on a well-done job of a hard song!

Sorry to be the hater but his vocal rendition is terrible.
