Ms Loretta is the absolute definition of badass.
keep in mind this song was released in 1975 to COUNTRY audiences. it was very controversial at the time, but also reached number one on the charts, because a lot of women identified with it. A lot of rural, country women simply had six or eight children by the time they were 40, simply because there was no other option. The concept of controlling whether one reproduced did not exist, but suddenly there was another choice. Loretta later said that a number of physicians in rural areas told her that the song did more to inform women of birth control option than all of the literature they put out at the time.
❤❤❤Loretta❤❤❤ The best singer the world has ever seen. I love this one. It is one of my favorite of her. She spoke the truth when it was hard to tell.
I remember when this song came out. Everybody was talking about it. Watch the movie "Coal Miners Daughter". It'll help you understand Lorettas life. Her & Doolittle had 6 kids. This song got ban on a lot of radio stations. Loretta didn't cheat. She's just telling her husband she's going out with him to have fun to. Now they don't have to worry. She's got the pill & he isn't getting her pregnant again. Gotta love Loretta, she tells it like it is & then will write a song about it. Looked in my book recorded Dec. 12, 1972. 6pm-9:30pm. Went to #5 in 1975
Loretta just released another chart topping album at 89!! Still Woman Enough is the title track. She sings with Margo Price and Reba on this song. She has no plans to stop working and will work as long as she possibly can. Still telling it like it is for 60 years.
This song was banned on country radio for quite some time.
Yes, this song was very controversial when it came out. In fact, 14 of Loretta's top hits were actually banned from the radio because the male DJ's didn't like the lyrics! Why? Loretta wrote and sang about what women at that time were thinking about but were too afraid to speak up. Loretta was living these things with her husband who constantly stepped out on her so she sang about the things she was going through. Unfortunately, a lot of her songs made men look bad but she was telling the truth and they didn't like it. The banning of her songs did not, however, keep her songs from reaching number 1 on the charts as many of them did. I've seen many artists live but Loretta's voice is one of the most powerful I ever heard. She can/could blow anyone out of the water with it....lol! I would say Loretta was the most important female singer-songwriter of our time.
You are so true about loretta, she is the most important female singer.
It came out shortly after Roe Vs Wade and Radio stations banned it.
Loretta was bold. This was such a shocker.....controversy......I remember my parents going on about this song and her. And we're out in California. So you can guess how much it stirred up people in the south and midwest. Love Loretta.
LOL! I remember when this song came out in 1975. My elegant Southern mother and her friends acted scandalized in public but I also remember them listening to it while playing bridge and laughing hysterically. Definitely controversial when it debuted with many radio DJs told not to give it airtime. Thanks for the laugh and the memory.
10-04-22 R.I.P. Loretta. She was my secret girlfriend ever since I saw her perform live when the Grand Ol' Opry road show came to Seattle way back in the 60s. Hard to believe such a remarkable music icon is no longer with us. Her presence will be greatly missed.
I remember when "The Pill" was first approved by the FDA and legalized. Even so, it was only prescribed for married women and they had to have their husband's permission to get it.
alot of radio stations wouldn't play it,Real contraversal
She's giving him an ultimatum. He's been out with his hens.....she's got the pill. She's telling him she's going out too....but don't worry ...I got the Pill.
Don you need to understand her life story too totally understand her delivery of this one. She totally gets it
Hey, married 2 weeks before her 14th birthday (not a typo...married at 13), 4 kids by age 17, then had twins by 21...
Birth control was not widely accepted back when this song came out and a lot of stations wouldn't play it because they felt it was too "racy". She was not talking about going with other men. She was just telling her husband that her days of popping a baby (or two...because she had twins) out every year or so was over because she was taking the pill. According to the movie, Coal Miner's Daughter, Loretta became pregnant so easily and so often that Doolittle told her, "Loretta, we've finally found something you're good at." Besides the children she had she also became a grandmother at the age of 28.
It was banned on country radio early 70's by the uptights lol..I loved your reaction. It's sure a fun tune. GO WITH GOD LL
Not sure God approves of killing his creations.
Loved this! Came out in the early 70's. Some radio stations wouldn't play it! My mom remembers when it came out. I've researched it!
Interesting another super great one
This came out in early 70s and yes it was very risqué for the times. Some radio stations refused to play it despite the popularity. Also, keep in mind Loretta had like 5 or 6 kids by this time despite her being in her early 20s
That’s what happens when you get married at 13.
@@cupcake8867 And your husband is too much of a sack of $#!÷ to let you alone or wear condoms. Married women had no legal options as a husband couldn't be charged with a crime if he forced you to have sex, tubal ligations were not done and the Pill didn't come out until the '70's. A real dyed in the wool pig could keep you pregnant against your wishes, and if you left or tried to divorce there was NO welfare, few shelters and if your family was conservative or religious they'd say you brought shame and refuse to help you and their own grandkids to force you back to a jerk husband because God said so.
@@cobaltcanarycherry The destruction of the family seems to be working out great for American society. 🙄
@@cupcake8867 That way of "living" needed to be blown to smithereens with a nuke. There are plenty of happy families with fewer kids, and satisfied moms and dads that do fine under the new paradigm.
There was no doubt in my mind that she was talking about the birth control pill which had come out recently. Nobody had the nerve to mention this, but Loretta did. Her lyrics compared everything to a chicken farm, and they were so clever. I couldn't sit down and write a song if you paid me. The Pill really gave women some freedom, and I still believe that Loretta was the first to mention it in polite company. Love it.
they sure got pissed when that. came out
Yes! I’ve know this song since I was a baby!! My mom loved it!! ❤️Tennessee
Loretta is such a great song writer and singer.
Only Loretta
She's probably the only one who could have gotten away with writing and singing all those controversial songs of the time. She opened a lot of doors for the ladies of today, not just in country music, but in life in general. She will still tell it like it is today, like it or not.
That's how she is. Always laughing and singing about this. So hard for her not to smile or laugh on recordings.
It came out in the 60s and Loretta had 4 kids in the first few years they were married while her husband was notorious for running around with other women. He drank a lot while she was at home all the time with the babies. I can relate since I'm not a lot younger than her and I had 3 kids bathe time I was 21. When the pill became available it felt like a miracle to some of us. Loretta went on to have twins a few years later, I did stop with the 3 daughters. But yes this song was quite controversial in the 60s. I loved it.
Sorry, I was wrong, it came out in 75, it just took her awhile to get it written and recorded.
I love your reactions to Loretta's songs 🤣😂
- HANKY PANKY WOMAN by LORETTA LYNN
I was rocking to this in the crib. Lol.
They banned several of her songs on country radio but they all still went to no 1 regardless . Radio had to cave onto her. She was a force to reckon with.
Don she has a duet with Jack White called Portland Oregon. Its worth a listen.
She's saying "I ain't gonna be birthing no more babies"
check out the Hollywood movie, Matewan. The entire area is unique. I know, was born outside Pikeville.
In the song I just mentioned this lady is after her man again and Loretta gives her the ultimate warning
This song is an lp track from the album Coal miners Daughter
Love Loretta 💘, was very controversial and at the time lots of radio stations wouldn't play it 😉thanks for sharing and as always you know "Howdy from Texas "!!
I never heard this one in New England so I guess it was banned on the local radio stations. I've heard plenty of her other songs but never this one. Cheers, Steve
Her song one on the way is a good one to react to
Written by Shel Silverstein. Really good song.
Yes react to ones on the way
This was released in 1975. Loretta has 6 children, 2 boys, 4 girls.
This song is impactful for this time.... but it's also pretty damn funny.
it's one of only a handful of songs in country music where women realize that they are getting the short end of the deal, along with Kitty Wells' 'It Wasn't God Who made Honky Tonk Angels', Dolly Parton's '"Just Because I'm a Woman'", Mary Chapin Carpenter's "He Thinks He'll Keep Her, and maybe one or two others.
@@mthivier Certainly. I like the honesty of the old music. Before it became good times and pickup trucks.
My lady again. Thank you. Also, check out Tayla Lynn's Coal Dust. Such a great song. I would like you to a reaction on that one.
She was always pregnant while he ran around so now she got the pill no more babies doo
😂😂😂😂
Loretta - The OG Hillbilly Feminist!
It's one of her great hits. But now on the subject of instrumentation... the bass line. I think it's awesome. don't you?
I love your channel I'm tellin ya buddy listen to Loretta sing it'll be open season on you I promise you that you won't be disappointed I know you'll love it
You should react to her song titled RATED X
If you want another song with a woman who takes control of her life listen to She Let Herself Go by George Strait.
Check out Kenny Rogers “Scarlet Fever”
Four kids in six years, Catholic lady goes to a priest for permission to take the pill. He is younger than she is. She is like "We have no money and our marriage is stressed." He is like "Every child is a gift from God." She is like, "Duh. And thanks for nothing that you know anything about." Straight to the doctor for a prescription. :-)
This came out in 67
Hey! So did I!
I would guess that after reacting to several of her songs, you are now a Loretta Lynn Friend (she calls us fans her Friends because we've stuck by her for 60 years). You know, she's 89 and still working. She just released another hit album. Sadly, her ranch foreman Wayne was recently killed by the flood that came through the area. I can't help thinking she will write a song about that. I don't know that she will record and release it; but, I feel she will write about it.
Try Kenny Rogers “Scarlet Fever”
yes was banned on many radio stations
Cry pretty- Jason Eady and his wife Courtney Patton!
It is funny as the dickens now but I will tell you from personal experience it wasn't funny at the time. Loretta sure could think em up!!! Thanks for playing Don Take care
Came out in 1975... Please react to "One's on the Way"
Check our One's on the Way
I see you did this a year ago. This was early on when birth control gave women control over their own bodies. It was controversial for that reason. She was telling women in a lot of her songs that they were people too. She played a lot with the rooster/hen analogy in the song. Another song of Loretta's that got banned by country radio was Rated X (because of the title) that talked about the double standards between men and women and how divorced women were promiscuous. Happy Days did an episode about this as well where Richie, Potsy, and Ralph did some work for a divorced woman thinking that they were going to get some action. Check out Loretta's song: ua-cam.com/video/U3kZcmxuD8M/v-deo.html
Can you react to George Jones our bed of roses
When you please play Gary Stewart out of hand
