Okay Sebs .. 🎼🔥💛🔥🎼 .. when you say ," I think this is Country Music, someone named Reba McEntire ...." ..
the entire group that are following , almost choked on their coffee. REBA IS Country music , she is what is all about. She is a legendary story teller, she has hits for decades , she represents Country all the time with style, class, and respect for the past. Miss Reba can wail , or she can whisper the sweetest messages , but she connects with everyone. I am so glad you found Reba .. there is much more to dive into. Love it .. 🎼🔥🔥🔥🎼
Reba is the queen of country. She does so many subtle cool things with her vocals. It's a deep rabbit hole worth going down
If you can ever see her live please do so. Years ago at her concerts when this song came on she came out in a car. It was awesome
For all Ms. Reba's fame and record sales over the length of her career, she remained very community minded. There's a small town called Coalgate in Oklahoma. After a three story building in the middle of the town was transformed by an artist into "the largest rodeo mural east of the Mississippi river" Coalgate's local government celebrated the unveiling of the new mural with "The Parade of the Bulls". It was like a little country fair with cotton candy and tee-shirts for sale. Local ranchers paraded their best bulls down Main Street in their trailers accompanied by the Coalgate High School Marching Band, etc. and there was Ms. McEntire. Sitting in the back of a beautiful convertible car, waving at her cheering fans standing along both sides of the parade route. Donating her time and celebrity to increase attendance in that teeny tiny little town's celebration. :D She didn't have to do it and she did it anyway. Real Class.
There's only a few of the truly great country divas left and Reba is close the top. I hope she lives forever, to be honest.
Did you know she's on the voice as a coach this season?
“just be nice to the gentleman fancy they’ll be nice to you” Sebs “nice” 😂😂😂😂😂 he totally missed that part
He needs read the comments then re-watch it lol
@@minneyruthclearly he doesn’t care what his subs have to say.
The heartbreak of having a dying mother put their 18 year old child into prostitution because she had just aged out of the welfare system and sees no other option is both heartbreaking and true to life. At least Fancy got herself out, but many children are t so lucky and end up in trafficking situations. This song was originally written by Bobbie Gentry. The original is even more haunting and heartbreaking.
The amazing thing is how privileged society is today that the people who react to this song don't even know what "turning her out" means.
@@turnthepage1972 I have thought the same thing. Although I think for Seb personally him being an immigrant may also have played into him not knowing what the term “turning her out” meant. I had to explain that line to a woman that thought her mom sent her to marry a man with money. I think that she thought the one line was “just be nice to the gentleman Fancy, he’ll be nice to you”. Not “just be nice to the gentlemen Fancy, they’ll be nice to you”.
Btw. Love your username!
he has no clue what the song is about,
@@patwelch8187 I know, but as he has said before, he will figure it out from the comments and my comment was made after others explained it.
The writer of the song, Bobbie Gentry, is a true icon of country music. She was one of the first female artist to write and produce her own music. After building a successful career in both business, part owner of an NBA team, and music she retired in the early 80's and leads a very private life. Little is known about her now, where she lives or can confirm that she is alive.
True. Of the little that has been confirmed- They have confirmed that she was alive as of a couple years ago. It was also confirmed that she got a doctorate in Philosophy and was a professor for a period of time, but that information wasn’t made public until AFTER she had retired from teaching. She is a smart lady. Will allow just enough information to come out through trusted confidants in a way that allows her to still be incredibly private, but also keeps people that may try to investigate off her back too much.
Reba McAntire just did a live show a couple weeks ago, who are y'all talking about? She hasn't retired.
@@mamabear4life Bobbie Gentry, the writer and original singer of Fancy
@@isurvivedhaddenfield6055 oh okay. I'm sorry, I was confused. I should have read it again.
@@mamabear4life They're talking about Bobbie Gentry, the song writer. She also wrote Ode to Billy Joe.
Bobbie Gentry was the writer and first singer of this song.
Yes! And I'm sorry but I prefer Bobby's version
🤯 Off to listen to that!
@@valerieblack6445probably because you heard it first. I find what I hear a song by an artist and they were the first ones I heard it by I prefer that one. Never heard of this Bobbie girl until this list. 🤷🏻♀️
I had the 45 from Bobbie Gentry. Ode to Billie Joe and Fancy was the flip side.
@@soniac8532probably depends on what kind of music she likes. Two different styles, two excellent versions. Reba’s was country, Bobby’s was southern soul.
That accent is PURE Okie! She is an amazing singer, entertainer and a generally awesome person. She is from Oklahoma (not far from where I have lived all of my life) and has completely brought her little tiny hometown of Atoka back to life by purchasing an OLD building and renovating it into a restaurant. If you ever get to the area, you should definitely check it out... it's called Reba's Place. She is there often to meet people and just help with things that are needed. Her father, Clark McEntire, was a 3 time World Champion steer roper and in 1988, was inducted into the National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City. Oh, and she is the new coach on The Voice... taking her close friend Blake Shelton's chair.
Oh wow I didn't know that about Atoka. I always thought she was from McAlister. I went to school with her nephew Jason. I grew up in Coalgate. You are 💯 right about that Okie accent!! I love it!
@@mamabear4life I think the media always just said McAlester because no one ever heard of Atoka LOL
She’s not from Atoka or McAlester. She’s from Chockie, which is 11 miles from Stringtown. Her family traded in McAlester and Stringtown primarily. She graduated from Kiowa HS and attended Southeastern for her bachelor’s degree.
She did open Reba’s Place in Atoka, but it hasn’t “completely brought Atoka back to life.”
100% right about the accent. Born and bred Okie from Tahlequah. I love my accent.
Put all of Reba's songs on a wall and throw a dart, you'll pick a winner. Saw her live once. For the encore she did Patsy's "Sweet Dreams" a'capella. She held the 1st 'sweet' for a few seconds then paused. 15,000 people and you could've heard an ant fart. Mind blowing.
I saw her live, I was close to the front, she looked me in the eye while she was singing and I damn near passed out!
❤️
@@thedirtygot9570 ❤️
The first time I saw her, in concert, was when "Fancy" had just been released. In those days, she opened, with "Fancy" (now, she closes every show, with it), and she was driven onstage in a yellow taxi cab (just like in the vid)!!!! The crowd went WILD!!! ❤️
@@thedirtygot9570 Don't know if I could have handled that. On "Sweet Dreams" she was in a blue sequined gown and blue spotlight. Stunning!
I absolutely know you were talking about what Reba was doing with her voice in the progression from the story part of the song to the chorus, but your, "NICE!" just as the story was explaining that Fancy's mama was turnin' her out (turning her into a prostitute) was... misplaced.... and hilarious. I think this is the only reaction to this song I've seen where the reactor said "Nice" there. :):)
The audible cackle that came outta me at that moment LOL
My late step daughter sang this song and got a standing ovation from a mostly black audience at a local talent show case.
They absolutely feel deeper.
I went to see Reba in concert a year after she lost 8 members of her band in a plane crash in ❤91. It was the best concert to this day I have ever been to. Such an emotional roller coaster. She is the Queen of Country Music!❤
Saw her on the same tour. Simply awesome!
The first time I saw her, it was right before they perished. Nothing against Linda Davis, but Paula Kay was WAAAAAY better, and I missed her, the next time.
I saw her then. Garth Brooks was opening for her.
If you want more Reba then “Consider Me Gone” and “The Night the Lights Went out in Georgia” are both great songs
"The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" is such a favorite of mine.
She also did one called “Whenever’s In New England” which is a favorite of mine.👍❤️👏
Hi, the song title is “Whoever’s in New England” just a typo. Have a great day
That one, and The Greatest Man I Never Knew.
I 👍agree 💯
Reba is a GOAT in the Country World!!!
Reba grew up as a horse woman. She had to get out to exercise the horses before school. She grew up on a ranch in Oklahoma and trained to be a rodeo barrel racer. She went to college to be a teacher. Her dad and grandfather were both in rodeos. She is the real deal.
My very first concert was a Reba McEntire show. My mom and dad were supposed to go, but he had a mild heartattack a week before. So instead of letting those tickets go to waste, he let my brother and I go with my big sister and her husband. I am a huge Reba fan, have been from when I was very little (my parents only ever listened to country, so i grew up with her) and, I tell you, 30 years later and I still remember that show like it was yesterday. Fancy was her last encore of the night. She came out wearing a full length fur coat, and threw it off the moment she mentions the red velvet dress in the lyrics and she was wearing that dress underneath. I screamed so much that night in happiness that I threw out my voice for a whole three days.
Reba is a heck of a singer and a very funny lady too. I still watch reruns from her sitcom "Reba."
BTW, I believe the video was the right choice.
You can’t go wrong with any Reba song, she has an incredibly extensive catalog
I heard Bobbie Gentry 's (songwriter, singer) version (original recording) in 1972 when I was a kid. I am 67 years old now. I have known every word and every note of Fancy's story all these many years and have always found this story to be unimaginably sad but powerful at the same time.
Yo man! I think you missed the part of the story that is her mom sending her away into prostitution. “Just be kind to the gentleman, fancy…and they’ll be nice to you.” It’s a sad somewhat uplifting song. She got turnt out, but through the process of “working” she made her way up the clientele ladder, until she got her own riches.
Lol he actually says “nice” wooosh right over his head
He seemed focused on the music - he should listen again and focus on lyrics
Dude, I’m glad you liked the song, but methinks you missed the point. Fancy’s mom sent her away to prostitute herself to escape the cycle of poverty her mother was trapped in. Maybe watch it again and pay more attention to the lyrics instead of Reba’s voice.
He’s taking the sunging.
@heathpars210 I know right? I was waiting for his reaction and was like "WTF"?
Love Reba. Her song “he gets that from me” truly helped me in my grief journey after losing my husband when our kids were young. “Just like them horses” is another one in a similar vein.
Love this channel !!
The night the lights went out in Georgia is a great song & video too!
Although I prefer Vicki Lawrence's version
Hey Sebs... love the channel... Fancy is a story of a mom who pushed her kid to be a prostitute to save her from living the life her mom had... it's a story of regardless of the circumstances you can always rise above.
@@kerrycronin256 should really read about how the writer interpreted the lyrics
@@kerrycronin256 Bobby Gentry and Reba have both spoken on the prostitution in the song. The lyric “criticizing mama for turning me out” confirms it if nothing else. “Turning her out” is slang for turning an innocent girl into prostitution.
@@kerrycronin256 I hope I didn’t come off rude. I just figured I would let you know, because this is a song that has been misinterpreted by a lot of others as well. Bobby Gentry is a philosopher at heart so she liked to approach uncomfortable subjects in order to spark important conversation.
Music is subjective though so I can understand you preferring your interpretation better. One good thing is that this song did some of the good it intended to do. It was meant to spark conversation about kids that age out of the system and are forced into things like prostitution because it is their only option. Some charities were created in the country to help kids like Fancy because of this song shinning a light on it. I like to point out the meaning of the song to further that conversation.
@kerrycronin256 why exactly does a rich man take care of a young woman 🤔 hint....it's sex
@@kerrycronin256 Most do, The Truth has no preferences. Truth hurts but It does not care about your opinions ♥
Night the lights went out in Georgia
The country music awards live version was epic. The dress that had all of country music talking for weeks!!
Reba is great. A wonderful singer and storyteller. This is the story of Fancy, who was sold into prostitution but made a name for herself. She survived, struggled, but made it!!
Reba is so multi talented.. actress and singer. She can be funny, and serious. Her role in Tremors os one of my favorite acting roles, but Reba TV show was so funny. I dont think she has a bad song. As others have pointed out she didnt write sone, but she definitely did right by it.. the video, as videos often do, made the song connect emotionally with many. Life is shades of gray..
You need to watch Kelly Clarkson’s version when the Kennedy Center honored Reba… incredible I even think Reba was blown away by it.
LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT REBA. A OKLAHOMA GIRL. SHES NOW A JUDGE ON THE SHOW , VOICE ,
Bro!!!! You just got introduced to THE QUEEN OF COUNTRY MUSIC!!!!!! Ive been waiting for you to do this forever!!!! Great reaction. Definitely check out more Reba...you wont be disappointed.
One of my favorites by Reba! Just recently watched the original Bobbie Gentry 1969 version. Women’s lib was in full swing and seeing her sing the song she wrote; it was very impactful.
I was a kid and I saw reba sing in a bbq/dance hall of she was only 17. I had no idea who she was unytil i was in ymy 20s and my sister reminded me of the night. I was always with her when she worked there. Kids could be in a bar then and big daddy didnt care that she brought me . I was a free drink refiller and bus boy lol. She was awesome then and now. I recommend getting an autograph from every bar band you see. You never know where they might be heading
That's an Oklahoma accent. Blake Shelton, Garth Brooks, and Toby Keith are also from Oklahoma.
And Merle Haggard, Ronnie Dunn, Vince Gill, Carrie Underwood, Woody Guthrie, Joe Diffie, Roy Clark, Roger Miller, Gene Autry, Bob Wills, Mel McDaniel, Hoyt Axton, Wade Hayes, Stoney LaRue, and Joe Don Rooney (Rascal Flatts). Those are just off of the top of my head. I am sure there are a lot I missed. I love being from such an amazing state and I was blessed with that Oklahoma accent!
Ray Charles said he loved Country music because of the story-telling aspect of it. Reba is a true story teller. I love a lot of her songs. I think the most loved is "Is There Life Out There" but my most recent love is "Somehow You Do".
Reba is a powerhouse of talent. From her acting to singing to her live performance, she is the Queen.
Yes, yes! Some Reba. She don’t need no lass name!!! 😊lol! Seriously. Legendary!! 😊NEXT-The night the Lights Went Out in Georgia!!
My favorite song by Reba is She Thinks His Name Was John. Awesome song wonderful message. It's a story you've got to hear.
Reba is amazing in a live concert. She was born here in Oklahoma,
along with Vince Gill, Garth Books, Carrie Underwood, Tobi Keith
and more. A great group of extremely talented Oklahomans.
I have the original 45 record that Bobbie Gentry put out, I was a preteen then. It was considered Pop not country till Reba recorded it years later. Reba did it justice as she always, she is the queen of country and I adore her. TV show was really funny too!
How have you not heard this before? I love your reactions
This song is iconic. It was a hit outside country. Reba delivers it fabulously.
I grew up listening to Reba and my favorite song by her is The night the lights went out in Georgia
Night that the lights went out in Georgia is quite the story telling too by Reba! You would love it I believe.
You need to check out Reba's, "The Greatest Man I Never Knew"! It will pierce your soul, I promise.
One of my all time favorite Reba songs is, “Somebody Should Leave”. Another amazing one is “Whoever’s In New England”. But, I don’t think you can go wrong with any of Reba’s music.
You should react to Reba and Carrie singing one of her best songs it is called Does He Love You Or Does He Love Me
One of my favorite songs by her. Good choice watching the video instead of live, it makes the story real
Talk about rabbit holes and squirrels! Reba, Tanya, Loretta, Dolly, Kitty Wells, and so many more. You will love them all.
i love it when reactors hear this song and it's impactful storytelling...but I don't think Sebs got the big picture....was more focused on her voice and amazing talent. This is a classic....amazing song!
The only additional thing I can say is the biggest difference between production music videos and Live performance is Reba's Attitude that shows More in Live shows....
Sebs , you will love her song and the video of " Does He Love You". She features her backup singer Linda Davis. Linda sang so long with Reba that they almost sound alike. The story has a big surprise fou you at the end. The song is a blast.
Can't believe you reviewed this. This is such a keystone in my musical history.
Many of Reba's music videos are like mini-films. If you like this one, you should check out her videos for THE NIGHT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT IN GEORGIA and DOES HE LOVE YOU.
I don’t know if I could forgive my mom for turning me into a prostitute!! I think you might have missed the meaning of the song!!
On March 16th 1991 she lost seven of her band mates & her tour manager in a plane crash while promoting her Rumor has it album. She has a song called ( If I had only known) from her : For my Broken Heart Album, that she dedicated to them.
😁💭
Reba.. Just be nice to the gentleman Fancy, they'll be nice to you.
Sebs.. Nice😊
🤣🤣🤣 I'm not gonna lie. It does hurt a little bit whenever I hear someone say they don't know who Reba is 😅
Thanks Dotty! Great one
Have you heard her sing "Thats the night the lights went out in Georgia"? That's a good one too
When she does The Nights went out in Georgia.. she does it justice...
As others have said, her mom “…turning her out…” means she was sending her out to work the streets (“…just be nice to the gentleman, Fancy, and they’ll be nice to you.”) But she overcame the ugly start to her adult life and finally understood why her mother did it.
Reba's one of the best and Bobbie Gentry's lyrics are a masterclass in storytelling. I HIGHLY recommend watching Bobbie Gentry perform "Ode to Billie Joe". It's otherworldly.
Reba is the GOAT for female country in my opinion
Reba has soooooooooooooo many songs that are just so good.
ooh god I love Reba!! I grew up listening to her and watching the TV show I have it on DVD
This is an amazing song! Reba's voice is unlike any other. The story is heartbreaking, but how she turned her life around and is helping others in similar situations! This song will make me turn up the radio and sing my heart out to this song every time I hear this song. So powerful!!
Reba has the absolute best female voice in country music. There is NO wrong song with Reba. I'm so glad u have had a chance to discover her.
Got to do the night the lights went out!! Classic!
Good Morning to all Hope you have a great day
Ditto Friend!!
No body can sing vowels like Reba. She rules.
Yay! I upvoted this video! The version that Kelly clarkson sings at the Kennedy center honors is also amazing,you should check it out. I am loving your country conversion! Edit: it’s so hard to pick a favorite Reba song, almost impossible
I love her voice, and all her music, she’s awesome
I listened to this song many times, before I realized exactly what it was about. Based on your reaction, I'm not sure you caught it, or not. For many years, the lyrics were just part of the equation for me. I always sang along, without putting the meaning of the words together, to form information. I just listened for how the words and the melody sounded together. That determined if I liked it or not.
My favorite Reba song is, The Man I Never Knew. I never had a dad.
You should also check out the nights the lights went out in Georgia. That video really highlights the lyrics so well:) glad you found Reba she is awesome
I love this song, many folks talk about Reba's amazing voice or the content of the story both are great. I seldom hear anyone mention just how funky the groove of the music is though which is the main reason I love this song. That guitar slaps.
Love listening to Reba she is an Icon
We went to a concert of Reba's in the spring, fantasic show
One of my top 3 Reba songs. You should check out Does He Love you? A duet she does with the mother of Hilary Scott, the female Lead of Lady A.... you should also watch Need You Now by Lady A but with your wife for sure. Biggest country song of the decade
Reba rocks! I LOVE REBA!!! Reba IS country!!
Growing up, my mother had a friend that named her daughter Fancy after this song.
My favorite Reba McEntire song: One Promise Too Late.
She's from OK did Rodeo & sang the National Anthem was how She was discovered. Best Political bumper sticker DOLLY & REBA FOR PRESIDENT!! Who's going to tell Them what to do!!!!
Love this! She has so many great songs! "The Night the Lights Went out in Georgia" is good - you need to do the video to catch it all the first time.. but also "If You see Him" is great.. "The Greatest Man I Never Knew" can make me cry - "Whoever's In New England" is also really good.. She has an incredible catalogue.
Can't wait to see your reaction to The Nights Went Out in Georgia 😂😂😂
The Queen of country was Tammy Wynette,,, the First Lady of country .. Lorretta Lynn... Reba.. is just REBA!!!!! and she's so awesome.
I love your facial expressions Seb! I see by the comments someone has answered all the questions you asked. You will also like "When Whoever in New Englands Through With You" ♥️ your channel!
Her video THE NIGHT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT IN GEORGIA is literally a mini movie
Reba is the queen of Country. Yes, she had a TV show, but she is not a "TV person." She had a huge singing career for 30 years before the tv show ever came out.
It's hard to pick a favorite song since she has so many that I've grown up with and have nostalgia atta jed to for different reasons.
She has been dating an actor since before the country shutdown, he was on the show CSI MIAMI, he was the detective they worked with.. I think thats the CSI he was on. I’m 90% sure its that one. They seem very happy
@bobbiejohnson3354 Yes, she is dating Rex Linn, and they seem quite happy together. He even co-starred on her most recent tv movie. Although I will always wonder what happened between her and Narvel. They were married my entire childhood, and I always thought of them as a power couple.
Love the stories also,just kind of takes you away from your own troubles for awhile💞 Please keeping us entertained💖👍🏻
I like the part when Mama told her be nice to the Johns and you said "NICE" lol
The CMA performance of this song is amazballs. "The Women of Country" was an AMAZING collection of female country music talent that opened the Country Music Awards a few years back. And it was a long-overdue recognition of the female contribution to country music that's overly-dominated by men.
I love Miss Reba!!!❤ she is my favorite
Reba is one of the best!!!! Love her!!! Her songs from the 80s and 90s are some of the best there is!!!
So happy you finally found Reba. She is one of the queens of country. Please continue the journey
Reba is near my age and grew up not far from me. I didn't know her personally but she definitely did Oklahoma proud. So if you're keeping track that's at least 5 Okies you've reacted to, i believe. Blake, Reba, Carrie, Garth and Toby. Oh and Vince Gill, so 6!
You've finally gotten to the most badass woman on the planet.
Reba is and will always be one of my favourite female country singers! I was really young when this came out and even though I liked it, I didn’t quite understand the context of the song. It’s a song that has an amazing sound but the lyrics are incredibly powerful.you definitely have to listen to the lights went out in Georgia by Reba. It’s amazing! The reba show is awesome too!
Lol I crushed my husband's spirit unknowingly one day making a comment. He had never realized it either as he was young enough to not really get it also. Oooopsies lol
Country goes back further than you realize. It's the soul of our country. It was songs that told the story of their lives. Listen to hank Williams, the Carter family , it's not rap, it's music !
That’s a southeastern Oklahoma accent. Reba grew up about 25 miles from my house. She’s a big deal here.
Reba was born and raised in eastern Oklahoma! Great accent!!
There are so many great country songs and I'm afraid you'd be in your 90's for you to listen to them all even if you did it all day long. Here are a few Reba songs from the 80's which was a great decade for Country Music as it gave us the greatest Country Song of All time...George Jones' He Stopped Loving Her Today. So here are a few Reba songs from the 80's in the order of how I like them 1. One Promise Too Late 2. Red Roses 3. Only In My Mind 4. The Great Divide 5. Somebody Should Leave.
