she accidentally stepped on his foot and said "excuse me Kenny" they were so amazing. Always wanted to see them in concert. That was a bucket list for me. Sadly, it never happened :( Rest in Peace Kenny.
I saw him at one of his last concerts. Didn't even fill a 5000 seat arena. He could barely walk and had trouble remembering the words but there were still flashes of his brilliance.
@@beckybirdsell2290 that happened when my husband and I saw Loretta a few years ago. It was incredibly sad but I’m so thankful to have gotten to see her!
That is sad. I saw Kenny in the 80s and he mastered that audience. I’ve seen Dolly three times and she’s just amazing. Never saw them together, though. 🙁
This song should definitely be on your wedding party playlist. Play Islands In The Stream for the older generations and then Ghetto Superstar for the younger generations. You'll all have a blast!
Barry Gibb & the Bee Gees wrote a complete album for Kenny Rogers called "Eyes That See In the Dark." The songs are all awesome. Islands In The Stream was a song from that album.
www.smoothradio.com/features/the-story-of/islands-in-the-stream-dolly-kenny-lyrics-meaning/ With disco on the way out by the early 1980s, the Bee Gees found their style going out of fashion. Instead, they turned to writing for other genres and particularly other artists. Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb decided to write this song as an R&B tune for Marvin Gaye, but it later transformed into a country-pop crossover. "The story is the producer and the writer on the song was one of the Bee Gees, Barry Gibb," Kenny told People magazine. "And we had been singing this song in my studio in L.A. for four days. And I finally said, 'Barry, I don't even like this song anymore.' "And he said, 'We need Dolly Parton.' "I said, 'Well, why not, you know?'. And Ken Kragen, my manager said, 'I saw her downstairs.' I said, 'Well, go get her.' "And Dolly, in her inimitable fashion, marched into the room and the song was never the same." Amazing.
@@DeborahLeighParkCityUtah Yes you are right. Living in the Smokies I had always thought her brother Randy wrote it. I see it's named after the Ernest Hemingway novel. Also was written originally in an R&B format for Marvin Gaye. Thanks
The Bee Gees wrote this song. Dolly herself is a prolific songwriter. You probably know one of her songs she wrote... "I Will Always Love You" which she wrote and released in the 1970s and was later covered by Whitney Houston.
You should listen to them singing "We Got Tonight" at a concert. They had best onstage chemistry. He originally sung that with Sheena Easton. Oh, and if you haven't reacted to Kenny Rogers "Lady," that would definitely make your wedding playlist. Lionel Ritchie wrote it for Kenny.
Yes that video of them in the Memorial Coliseum in Portland OR. That is pure chemistry. And he needs to do the Lionel Ritchie and Kenny live version of Lady. Where Kenny explains how the song was created.
It’s still hard to listen to Kenny Rogers without tearing up a little. He was such a special man and always had a special place in my heart, as he was the first artist I ever saw in concert when I was 5 years old. I was particularly lucky to see him again not long after touring with none other than Dolly Parton herself. Not only were their voices so beautifully compatible, but you could see the genuine friendship and affection between them. I loved whenever they would team up together, like the Christmas special they did in the 80s called A Christmas To Remember. The accompanying album, Once Upon A Christmas is a must play every year in my house for the holidays. Another artist he sounded great with was Dottie West. Every Time Two Fools Collide is a great example.
Made my night absolutely love this song so beautiful they are definitely perfect together ..those voices incredible love your reaction thanku so much love an god bless x
I love them both and that song came out in 83. I beleive that video came from one of their concerts together or award show don't quite remember now. Im 62... RIP Kenny!
You should watch more of their lives. The chemistry they had was awesome. He's got a beautiful voice as well. Not an awards song. THEY TOURED TOGETHER. They are magic together✨💜✨
Okay, you totally gotta listen to these.... 1. Dolly and Kenny - "We Got Tonight" (Originally, Kenny sang this with Sheena Easton. This is live, from one of the many times Dolly and Kenny went on tour, together, and they do alotta kibbitzing; it's so cute - so much love!!) ua-cam.com/video/kjejCIYVGAw/v-deo.html 2. Dolly and Kenny - This looks like a fan-made montage, but it's not---I got it right off Dolly's channel; it's an official vid!! Lots of footage and stills of them working/singing together!! "Real Love" ua-cam.com/video/sRI-1WzLFNA/v-deo.html 3. Reba and Kenny - This is your girl, Reba, with Kenny, when they were on tour in Australia, together!! (You can stop it at 4: 10, when they step-up to the podium, because they present an award to someone no one's ever heard-of, in the states.) "Don't Fall in Love with a Dreamer" ua-cam.com/video/4wiHxdYPVHk/v-deo.html
Growing up my mom played kenny rodgers all the time. He has so many great songs. Lady would definitely make your wedding play list. If you listen to it check out the version he did alone and then he did a performance of it with Lionel Richie. Other songs by kenny are coward of the county, the last 10 years, the gambler, through the years, and buy me a rose. Just to name a few.
I love this song! I just came from your reaction video of the bee gees and Barry Gibb fr the bee gees did this song. He did a lot of songs for other artists.
You should add her version of I Will Always Love You to the wedding playlist. Also, she starred in the movie 'Nine to Five' & had a hit with the title song.
The silver fox RIP you are missed. Can't wait to hear you sing in the angel choir. And sweet dolly shes amazing, and if you've never been to dollywood I would suggest it. I do have to say the recorded version sounds way better. Also a good song to play for you lady is the song lady by Kenny actually written by lienoil richie.
if you love Dolly ..you need to see the movie "Best Little Whore House In Texas" ...starring Dolly Parton, Burt Reynolds, Dom Delouis. it's an AWESOME flick...and yes, Dolly wears some skimpy attire lol ...oh, and its a musical comedy lol
You can find Dolly Parton in Tennessee at Dollywood her pioneer theme park. Great reaction. Please react to Toby Keith's Who's Your Daddy and I Wanna Talk About Me. Original videos. You will Love them!!!
If you're looking for a wedding song...try listening to You're The Inspiration by Chicago... I'll be shocked if you don't make it your wedding anthem. It's that good.
Kenny and Dolly . They were great friends for years. RIP Kenny
Rest In Peace Kenny Rogers August 21,1938 - March 20,2020 great legend .
I was born August 21st 1972!RIP!Kenny Rogers
The way they switch roles as the lead and backing vocals is flawless.

@@beckybirdsell2290 aww, bless his heart. Sad to hear that it wasn't that great of a turn out. I would've gone to see him if he had ever come here :(

She has a sweet pure but strong voice. She's also naturally friendly and bubbly. Very attractive.
OMG!!! I'm so happy you did this song!!! One of my top 5 songs of all time!!!! Thank you thank you thank you.
Kenny Rogers “Lady” or “Cowards of the County” are awesome
The Bee Gees wrote this song for them. The Bee Gees also performed the song. Please react to the Bee Gees version as well.
Dolly's brother Randy Parton wrote this song. The Bee Gees performed it, but didn't write it.

I've loved this song since 1983. For years I didn't know the song was written by the Bee Gees for Kenny.
Don't forget to give Berry Gibb of the Bee Gee's props for writing the song.
Yes yes yes! 2 legends. I love them!

best country duet of all times 😎👍
when she said excuse me Kenny,she stepped on his foot
You should check out another duet they did call "We've got tonight", its a really lovely one.
Dolly stepped on his foot so she said pardon me kenny
You should add her version of I Will Always Love You to the wedding playlist. Also, she starred in the movie 'Nine to Five' & had a hit with the title song.
The Bee Gees wrote this song.
She accidentally stepped on his foot and said excuse me kenny. Please react to them singing we've got tonight live. Incredible
Please try the bee gees version of this song. Bee gees wrote this song for Kenny & dolly.
You can play this at the wedding reception. The bride and groom can get out on the floor and dance with the guests,
“Excuse me Kenny”. She stepped on his foot and apologized - she is so classy
"Lady" is one if not the best song he ever did. Check out the live version.
The silver fox RIP you are missed. Can't wait to hear you sing in the angel choir. And sweet dolly shes amazing, and if you've never been to dollywood I would suggest it. I do have to say the recorded version sounds way better. Also a good song to play for you lady is the song lady by Kenny actually written by lienoil richie.
This should go on your wedding list.
Play it during your wedding reception!
Wedding/ anniversary dolly and Kenny through the years
Im not into countryusic much at all but ive always been into dolly she is a goddess and can sing with anyone
"Love the world away" by Kenny Rogers
if you love Dolly ..you need to see the movie "Best Little Whore House In Texas" ...starring Dolly Parton, Burt Reynolds, Dom Delouis. it's an AWESOME flick...and yes, Dolly wears some skimpy attire lol ...oh, and its a musical comedy lol
She stepped on his foot.

It’s a song you could play on a Saturday morning in the kitchen making breakfast with your woman 🌞
Listen to his live performance of Lady. That’s a great love song.
Try 'Lady' It's even better! Dolly is terrific 'I will always love you' she wrote it!
i think she stepped on his foot
she stepped on the side of his shoe
If you're looking for a wedding song...try listening to You're The Inspiration by Chicago... I'll be shocked if you don't make it your wedding anthem. It's that good.
Wish you would listen to the two of them singing old friends there last song together
Kenny never lost a beat when she stepped on his foot or whatever
Seems like younger people are like the older generation songs😊
