WHY did I never hear THIS on the radio?? Girl On The Billboard and I'm The Girl On The Billboard back-to-back would be SO AWESOME! SHAME on the radio for not doing so!
You know the song “Wolverton Mountain” right? Another Female Country Artist recorded “l am the Girl on Wolverton Mountain” in the early sixties. I heard it on the radio and came home and looked it up.
I never knew this existed until just now I had posted Girl on the billboard on my channel this week and when playing it back I saw this pop up in suggestions had to check it out this is very cool now added to my want list
The ultimate "answer" song, IMHO, was Lesley Gore's "Judy's Turn to Cry," which was a follow-up to her 1963 #1 titled "It's my Party." In "Party," Judy stole Johnny, but in the "sequel," it was Judy's turn to cry, because johnny came back to Ms. Gore.
Time was, there were many "answer' songs. Jeanne Black did "He'll Have to Stay," and Loretta Lynn's brother did "I Come Home a'Drinkin to a Worn-Out Wife." The latter was by Jay Lee Webb (Loretta Lynn's brother). He was credited as Jack Webb, and for years I thought it was the Jack Webb who played Sgt. Friday on "Dragnet."
The classic answer songs,alas a thing of the past. Can I add Lois Williams to the list with a girl named Sam , Joanne Campbell with I'm the girl from Wolverton mountain and Kitty Wells it wasn't God who made honky-tonk angels. I wonder was the first Kitty Wells answering the wild side of life?

When Del Reeves came out with this song, I was on route 66 in my 1960 Cadillac eldorado convertable lovin it..I'd love to go back and live it all over again.
@@stevemiller1203 um… no. I’m just a fan of the girl on the billboard… and I never knew that she actually existed, and recorded a response until tonight.
how have i never heard this before?
Awesome!
Great song they should play it on radio. She sounds better than 99.9% of the garbage referred to as so called country music in 2024.
I agree…100%
I think you just insulted garbage👍
@@stevemiller1203this is an old del Reeves hit
AMEN!
@@RoyPage1970 It's an answer song to Del Reeves.
Holy shit... I love the old Del Reeves song. I listen to nothing but country and more than my fair share of trucker songs. I've never heard this.
Me to, I was raised on it
Me either!😮
Don’t feel bad I’m sittin right beside you 😮
I NEVER HEARD THIS ,,I LOVE IT❤❤ SO THE GIRL WAS REAL LOL LOVE IT

Girl On The Billboard and I'm The Girl On The Billboard back-to-back would be SO AWESOME! SHAME on the radio for not doing so!
Good question 👍
I remember them in the summer of 1965. Back then, old 66 was still pretty much the main road from Chicago to St Louis and L A
@@robertbrouillette6767 Wow! You've lived some history there! That was slightly before my time!

I blared out this on route 66 in my 1957 Chevrolet everything on the car is original
The proper way to listen
Literally
Btw Loretta Lynn is my great grandma
I too love the Del Reeves song ❤
Joyce Paul, born in 1937, died 2-15-16.
First time hearing this. Love 😍 it.
A "REAL" 'Tit for Tat song! When Country music told stories to the audiences! "🤠" ...✌
Ahh yes. The long forgotten reply song!
It’s better than most I think🕶️

After 50 years of hearing Dell reeves sing that song Now I know who he wrecked his truck over .
If you're going to wreck your truck at least she's worth it
@@stevemiller1203 right
I wish I had been grown when she was around! Love her voice!
Super !
I love her voice and this song!
To all those billboard beauty’s
She's got that...you're such a snake in the grass boy but tonight you're mine.. look going on. JCM's words
LOL. Back to back smash hits!
I like all those "answer" records they used to make. I think hers stands up to the original.
This is fantastic.
Didn't know they had a second song like this
None of us did,I never heard it until little over a year ago. This is a rare find.
Time was, there were many "answer' songs. Jeanne Black did "He'll Have to Stay," and Loretta Lynn's brother did "I Come Home a'Drinkin to a Worn-Out Wife."

Yes, lots of answer songs in the earl ‘60s, also tragedy songs

@@stevemiller1203 One was "Tell Tommy I Miss Him." I forget who did it, but it was an answer to Ray Petersen's "Tell Laura I Love Her."
I have the record by Marilyn Michael's the exact same melody as tell Laura I love her
@@FenderTele OK, thanks for the info.
This is so cool. Just listened to the response to the song " long black veil" too. Love these response songs!
@@stephannielewis8253 me too

What happend to Joyce Paul ??? ❤Johnny From Alabama
She died in 2016 in Roseville, Minnesota, at the age of 78.
@@stevemiller1203 very sorry to hear that she had a Beautiful voice
Joyce Paul died in 2016. RIP one of the forgotten female vocalists of country Pioneer music like Loretta Lynn and Tammy Whinette.
Everybody stopped and stared at me
If time travel was possible id be blasting down route 66 in a dodge charger with this playing on the 8 track just after del reeves
