- This song took me to a place I wasn't expecting to go, as I'd never heard a song quite like it. And that's an understatement.

"They say I ran down the road calling out your name..." this song is a mental beat down start to last note.. John Conlee was such a master of delivery.. Heartbreaking... Masterful delivery
He drank himself out of being able to remember the love he once knew. That’s how I always took this song. John Conlee is from Kentucky. Amazing how many amazing artists come from Kentucky and people never notice.
Love this song, pass me my crayons.
A great song. I remember John Conlee for this song and Miss Emily's Picture. I think they came out about the same time. Thanks for the reaction.
This song is funny and sad at the same time
The ultimate rendition of a completely broken heart written by Harlan Howard.
You can feel the pain……
Betrayed to the max!!
Happy Sunday all.
Great reaction Don and I agree with the rating…
I like John Conlee, The song is sad. 😢 Written by Harlan Howard and Bobby Braddock, and recorded by American country music artist John Conlee.
Love the line “if you’ll hand me my crayons I’ll be glad to take your name”
What a sad song..But could be true for someone
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!
I just saw him in concert for the second time this year, the first time was in 1989.
Loved it first time I heard,John sang it like no one else could
Love. love this! John is such a storyteller and such an awesome voice!!
John Conlee is an OG of the first order….👍👍👍👍👍
John Conlee has an amazing voice and a huge number of hits all with deep meanings. If you haven't reacted to "Rose Colored Glasses" please do so. Amazing song with so many layers.
You’ve got to do Dolly Parton’s daddy come and get me and take me home with you. I don’t know if that’s the whole title but it’s not just the daddy song. I grew up with that song and it got me through a lot of crap even though daddy never came and got me.
My all time favorite John Conlee song….
George Jones “ the old man no one loves”
Sang this to a girl I once knew kinda flipped her out
@Joseph B Oh there's definitely more to that story, I have no doubt!
Hey Don can you react to Mountain Right by Hoyt Axton please I think you might like it
Good song. Been awhile since I’ve heard it. Not quite the same but I have had to deal with dementia from my mother and mother in law. Lot of truth could be in this!
Great reaction! I'd like to ask you to do Friday night blues and Miss Emily's picture both by John Conlee also. Thank you
If you liked this, You will also like "Old School" from John Conlee, or "I'm Only In It For The Love"
Try some Doug Kershaw.
Is he kin to Sammy Kershaw?
@@ozarkhillibilly9584 Cover of Third Rate Romance?
@@Caperhere that's Sammy.
@@ozarkhillibilly9584 yes like 2nd cousin
Happy Sunday Don, John and this song are absolute classics. As stated by Clifford if from legendary songwriters Harlan Howard and Bobby Braddock. Harlan has written/co-written over 3000 songs and has had oner 900 #1's, and this one is one of my faves. Another favorite Harlan penned tune is "Never Mind" by Nanci Griffith and another favorite John Conlee is "Friday Night Blues". John had an absolute fabulous country voice and for awhile in the late 70's and early 80's was about as big a star as there was in country music. Great song, and great reaction/rating Son. I hope everyone has a lovely Sunday.
Nice info. Back in the day there were certain unique voices, instantly recognizable when one of their songs came on the radio. Conway Twitty, Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, Charley Pride, George Jones, Patsy Cline, Kris, so many. I wonder how many distinct voices we’ll never hear because contracts seem to be given to people who mostly sound the same these days.
Can you imagine Kris Kristofferson being signed today? Yet it’s that voice and those lyrics belonging to Kris that are probably , to me, the best songs I’ve ever heard. Even without hearing a Kris song in awhile, I think of him fondly, and wonder how he’s doing. Same with Neil Diamond. I actually really care about these people who have retired, yet have been a crutch for me from the age of ten. Fifty years of them weaving through all the stages of life have become a part of me, and I wonder how many other people feel the same about those singers who have been part of the soundtrack of our lives.
Darn, here I go down a Kris rabbit hole.😊
He's in a room with rubber wallpaper....get it? Crayons because he wasn't allowed sharp pointy things like pencils or pens.
Bobby Braddock and Harlan Howard wrote this song.
Should try the song Old School by John Conlee
he has altzheimers
he has dementia
Rose Colored Glasses by John Conlee also Great
Doug Stone “I never knew love”
yeah she literaly drove him insane
I always have loved this one. I second the suggestions Friday Night Blues and Now She Can't Say That Any More.
All his songs are great. When you hear his voice you know who it is. Now adays they all sound the same.
I think it was supposed to be a light-hearted take on someone going crazy from a lost love. Nowadays, they string you up for poking fun at absolutely anything.
John Conlee - She Can't Say That Anymore or The Fridaynight Blues
Don --- great reaction to a fabulous song I hadn't heard in ages. Always loved John's voice. You're right that's it's a unique perspective, but it's a real heart wrencher. I never had a problem with the line about the crayons, I thought it clinched the situation for radio listeners who might not have been paying close attention. Also I want to second Mike's suggestion of Never Mind by Nanci Griffiths --- it's a great one!
I'm so pleased you reacted so well to my suggestion, Don. It's a tremendous song. I didn't realise it was written by Harlan Howard. I can imagine Tom T. Hall could have written it, the story being "between the lines" which he did so well.
Thank you for this suggestion. Great song by a great singer and you're obviously a Tom T. fan so that seals the deal you have great taste in music!
Please listen to Rose-colored glasses by John Conlee.
Songwriters: Bobby Braddock / Harlan Howard
Play Miss Emily's Picture.
This is the ultimate in break up songs in my opinion, been a favorite of mine since I first heard it. I dust it off and play it every now and then when I get morose thinking of my ex, and I can always say 'at least I'm not as bad off as that guy!", and smile again.
9.9
I always liked this song. Really nice song. How about 9.6?
I always thought of "Counting Flowers On The Wall" by the Statlers as being along the same vein.
ROSE COLORED GLASSES NO.1 HIT FOR JOHN
If you like this try “somebody lied” Ricky Van Shelton….
I was never in an institution, but I was in a bad situation and my dad was a Vietnam vet and he had his own problems
You spoke of Dementia. You should checkout Ashley Campbell's song "Remembering". This was done for her Father Glenn Campbell when he was sinking into the froths of Dementia.
I've known this song forever, but I guess that I have never really listened to the story; WOW
1st time l heard this on the radio, it cracked me up. I should say the part about the crayons cracked me up. Such a clever song.
My old man played guitar for for Dr. Hook at one time and shel Silverstein wrote a song they called “carry me Carrie” try it also
Glad to see some John Conley. Although I don’t understand what you mean from the line in the song “ if you hand me my crayons I’ll write down your name “ being oversold. To me it just gives your whole picture of where this person is at in the song. Have good day and I’ll wait for your next posting.
This is ine of the saddest songs I know: she walked out and he went insane, now to be interrned in a mental care facility, possibly for the rest of his life.
One of my favourite old country classics. Glad you got to hear it.
💘 it great voice
All these years later... at 74.. I am in tears. I still miss your songs, John Conlee,
I don't think that I've ever heard another song quite like this one. Give a listen to "Rose-Colored Glasses" which made John famous. "Busted" is another great one, either by John or Ray Charles. The list is long and filled with great songs. John started out working in a funeral parlor, and kept his license just in case.
Hello there Don hey this is a good one, I like it totally 👍 ,🤠 it's hard to believe that you have not heard it but this is a perfect 💯 if you ask me,hard core country music and u have a great reaction to it 👏2️⃣ u and have a wonderful day today Don, thanks to all who request and love the old ones and new ones,
You got it 😉 if you see him live, it looks like he's making it look so easy.
