    As another fellow Okie (from Oklahoma) Garth does it all…you want a party..
    Back When The Old Stuff was New
    Fever
    Ain’t Goin Down Til the Sun Comes Up
    And many more…
    Garth can do it all…and has the most high energy show you’ll ever see. He actually took himself out of the running for Entertainer of the Year because he’d won it so many times in a row.

    He’s a country artist who’s musical style runs the gamut…ballads, party, self impowerment…he does it all. My personal favorite is “The Red Strokes”, but I also love “Standing Outside the Fire” “Papa Loved Mama”, “Ain’t Going Down Till the Sun Comes Up” and Unanswered Prayers”. He ruled the country charts from the 90’s and the early 2000’s…a true powerhouse. :)

    • @justaguy328
      @justaguy328 Рік тому

      Dude ruled all of the charts. He's the highest selling solo artist of all time, out of any genre. He sold more records than Elvis, and is only behind the beatles in terms of overall records sold. He's just insane!.

    • @teigen13
      @teigen13 Рік тому

      @@justaguy328 in todays certified sales yes, but no one is even close to what Elvis has actually sold. They are still checking Elvis past record sales for more certifications and he still selling strong today. But Garth have done amazing with the few albums he has released and in short time, but not so great with latest albums...
      But can't compare them two, different times and different genre. Elvis was a megastar worldwide and did not even toured overseas. Garth, well, he is the biggest Country music star, but even in the states people doesn't know his music.
      I am a huge Garth Brooks fan, but Elvis was and still is bigger than Garth Brooks.

    Garth, to me, is the artist that painted the scene for the 90's country performers, and then the others followed. He's got his part in all types of country music and the way they sounded the way they did. To me, he's one of the absolutely all time greatest influences, not to mention one heck of a great artist and funny guy.

    Don’t spend any more of your time trying to pigeonhole Garth Brooks into a category! He does it all! From tender soulful songs, and tearjerking songs to songs that make you laugh so hard the tears roll down your face! He’s one of the biggest and brightest country singer stars that has ever graced this earth. His voice is simply amazing. I wish I could contribute, but I have hit rough times myself. If you want to hear a really beautiful Garth Brooks song, react to “unanswered prayers.” Thanks for what you do, I thoroughly enjoy you!

    Garth Brooks is a lively Entertainer he can be rowdy or sentimental. He was named Artist of the Decade for the 1990’s by the American Music Awards. Try listening to these songs - Much Too Young (To Feel This Damn Old) … The Dance … Unanswered Prayers … Rodeo … The River … Papa Loved Mama … We Shall Be Free … Learning to Live Again … Ain’t Goin’ Down (‘Till the Sun Comes Up) … Callin’ Baton Rouge … To Make You Feel My Love.
    That’s just a handful of 1990’s without mentioning his hits of the past 20 years.

    You want to have an entire bar singing in unison, play this song on the jukebox. Never fails! lol. Honestly Garth is in a league all his own. He's the highest selling solo artist of all time, out of all genres. He sold 12 million more records than even Elvis Presley. He's only second to the Beatles in overall records sold. A once in a century talent.

    Garth can do it all!! I've loved him since I was 10 years old. Of course at that age things don't hit like they do when you grow up, lol, but I still loved the music. As I got older(43yrs old now) I now love the lyrics as much (sometimes more) than the music.
    *The Change
    *Cold As You
    *Party Gras (the Marti Gras song)
    *Against the Grain
    *Ain't Going Down til the Sun Comes Up
    *The Storm
    And soooooo many more

  • @KevinSchmitt77
    @KevinSchmitt77 Рік тому +3

    @MrLBoyd Music, You, sir, need to watch this song again for two reasons: it is WAY better when he sings it in concert to 50,000 fans who sing along, and only then does he sing the 3 verse. He is known for writing and then removing the less "radio friendly" parts of his songs. "Friends in Low Places" and "The Thunder Rolls" are two that fall into that category.
    Keep up the great work!

  • @gigid5116

    Also, you HAVE to hear his live version with “that mysterious third verse that goes on the end of this song.” The best version, in my opinion, is the Garth Brooks live in New York for that third verse. TBH the best version is hearing him live ❤ He has always been quite the entertainer.

  • @brookerickettson4950
    @brookerickettson4950 Рік тому

    What kind of artist is GB? Yes. He is all this *gestured to everything you said* . “Friends in Low Places “ is probably his most famous song outside the country fandom: talking about a man coming to the wedding of his Ex, saying his hellos , not make a feared scene, and going straight to the venues bar, his “oasis” at such a high end party, as he is just a down to earth guy, who doesn’t want to live the high class life of Ivory Towers, to drink, after a few drinks he leaves , probably to go find a proper bar to drink blues away...it’s still his ex that’s moved on. When you’re blue, you've got friends in fellow low class bar patrons that just want to drink their troubles away .
    The Thunder Rolls is also super worth hearing: tackles an almost taboo subject at the time, and while more lesser known n niche , “Ireland”is powerful.
    You won’t be disappointed with anything he sings, but finding his songs , with him actually singing to react to is difficult, he is so popular and his brand(?) is so protected, that most of his songs get taken down from places like YT. Seems pretty counterproductive.

He gets more enjoyment hearing the fans sing his music. I got to see Garth when he was still fairly small in Stoolwater Oklahoma. Then again after he exploded in 98 in Tulsa Oklahoma where he’s from. You need to find a live version of this one that does the third verse.
