Willie Nelson and Orville Peck are fond of each other

by · Boing Boing

I grew up listening to Willie Nelson, and I still love him today. He's never been quiet about his support for the gay community or any other social cause where minorities need to be lifted and recognized as equals. And Orville Peck is… well, he's Orville Peck. That voice could melt butter from a mile away. I was familiar with  Ned Sublette's Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly Fond of Each Other. And Willie's 2006 cover of the song often turns up on my Bluetooth speaker. Loving the tune, Willie Nelson and Orville Peck, how the heck did I not know about this duet?

I've been listening to it for the past couple of days. It's fun, subversive, and so, so good. It brings a smile to my face just thinking about it.
