Many years into his career, it was clear that Nelson decided that his fans deserved a treat when he asked his sons to help him sing the iconic song ‘Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain,’ a favorite song for many of his fans.

Fred Rose originally wrote the track for Roy Acuff, but it had such an emotional impact on people from around the world that many covers have been put out over the years. One of the most beloved covers was by none other than Nelson. After his cover, the song was considered legendary in the history of country music. His amazing rendition helped secure his status as an icon in musical history.

But before Nelson’s sons began singing the song with their father, they decided to reminisce on a little bit of the story about their background in music. One of his sons, Lucas, admitted that the first song his father ever taught him was ‘Blue Eyes.’ It’s clear that Nelson passed down his iconic music genes to his children! During their performance, it’s hard not to notice that his children sound exactly like him.

You can clearly tell how proud of his sons Nelson is, and it’s heartwarming to see a family so bonded over similar interests. The trio of singers has gone on tours together in the past and even put out an entire studio record together! As you can see, Nelson is as devoted to his family as he is to music.
