Chris Stapleton and Wife Morgane Deliver Angelic Willie Nelson Cover

With a music career spanning decades, Willie Nelson has created many songs for other artists to cover. But one fan favorite has to be the rendition of “Seven Spanish Angels” involving Chris Stapleton, Morgane Stapleton, and Dwight Yoakam. Although this iconic performance took place back in 2016, fans of these artists still talk about it to this day.

Once you watch their rendition for yourself, you’ll understand why. This performance, which took place at the CMA Awards, is the epitome of country music. Chris, Morgane, and Yoakam’s voices pair together so perfectly, adding to the raw emotion of this song.

As the trio perform, we’re given a view of the audience’s reactions. Here, many celebrities are watching, and they can’t hide how moved they are by the performance. And they aren’t the only ones!

“Anybody who says they don’t like country music has never heard country music. This is fantastic,” one fan shares in the comment section of the performance, with another adding, “Who else watched this twice in a row?”

“Dwight is one of the most amazing storytellers in modern music, a genius who takes away my breath,” a third person shares. “And Chris Stapleton brings country music to its KNEES, makes it RAW EMOTION. He must pair with every musician alive, he makes every melody beautiful.”

This wasn’t the first, or the last time, Stapleton has put his own twist on a Nelson classic. More recently, he took the stage with George Strait to sing “Pancho and Lefty.” Truly, iconic artists covering the music of other legendary stars never gets old!
