Toby Keith was the best! There will never be another Toby. He was larger then life. He had so many talents, songwriter, musician, actor & more. He loved his family very much. God Speed Toby 💔
Several years ago my wife had a Adoption Awareness event in Oklahoma City and Toby came by the booth and struck a conversation up. He found out my daughter was a big fan and that she had the flu. Toby asked my wife to call my daughter and spent the next 45 minutes talking to a sick 12 yr old little girl and sent multiple signed pictures and cd's home for her! He actually took time out of his schedule to make a stranger's little girl feel better and i will till my last breath be grateful. RIP Toby
The day before Toby passed away, his Trailorhood song got stuck in my head randomly and I had to listen to it like 5 times. RIP Toby. You were one of the last great country artists.
The SAME thing happened to me except it was literally this song "as good as I once was"... that's actually very weird but I cried so hard after he passed and I was listening to his top hits on Pandora. Listened to this song again and it hit so different after he passed :(
I was lucky enough to meet him and his wife once in 2014 at his restaraunt in Vegas. The restaraunt was shut down cause he was there and his wife saw me peek in wearing one of his shirts. She brought me in and he popped out of no where. Sat with me for an hour and just chatted. Took pics, gave me merch and signed stuff for me. He was such a sweet down to earth man. He will truly be missed. ❤
Toby Keith, you were "Made in America" "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue". May there always be "Beer for My Horses" in "Red Solo Cups". Ya know, "I Should of Been a Cowboy" with "A Little Less Talk and a Lot More Action". But that was "Beers Ago"..."I Love This Bar" to "Get Drunk and be Somebody" like with all those "Drunk Americans" and the "Whiskey Girl". Toby Keith, you were a "True American Soldier" RIP.
RIP Toby! I’m from Oklahoma & he would just pop up at bars & do a few songs. He was a very nice guy & did so much for our troops & many charities he never even took credit for. Also, Toby was 6’3 or 6’4 so that man that punched him had to be a giant 😂
Toby wrote a song when a friend of his passed away from cancer. It communicates how I feel about Toby today. Ppl lease react to “Cryin’ for Me”. The video with pictures is the best b
Toby, on his own, can make you feel the ups and downs, laugh and cry, and it’s awesome. Between his respect for our troops with American Soldier and Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue, to his funny side like this song and I Wanna Talk About Me and How Do You Like Me Now and Red Solo Cup, then his beautiful love ballads like Crash Here Tonight and You Shouldn’t Kiss Me Like This. And his storytelling is amplified in Beer For My Horses. But if you wanna see how big his heart truly is, you should see his dedication to Wayman Tisdale, Crying For Me…which now describes how we feel about him, too. My personal fave? Whiskey Girl. I always felt like that song was written for me. ;-)
I love this song so much as well as "I should have been a cowboy" "Beer for my horses" "Courtesy of the red, white, and blue" "American soldier" "Whiskey girl" To name a few Also, he started a foundation for cancer patients to keep them and their families comfortable during their stay through chemo and stuff... amazing human being. I love you Luke, you are such an empath and I LOVE that you share that side of you with us online... it's very rare anymore for people to care so much, please never change!
#GOTGames ... Toby Kieth was the epitome of what real American Patriotism is all about. He loved this country and the men and women who serve in every branch of the military. He once told off a country group called The Dixie Chicks for saying bad things about the USA and it’s current president in England. He said “You do not slam your country in somebody else’s (basically)! He was right. I lived there when the second Iraq and Afghanistan war started in retaliation for 9/11. Britain lost 92 (please don’t slam me if that number is wrong, I have memory loss associated with an illness I have). My ex-husband was English and he was working at a place. I had never been outside the US (Hawaii is still the US). We had gotten married earlier in December but I had to wait for Visas (they were still wrong... I had to fly all the way back to the US to have a British Resident put in my passport because doing it at the embassy was just too easy and so I got to Britain in March. On my birthday, we invaded and all the countries who joined us. The hotel staff were so kind to me, warning me to not go out by myself because this area of Britain had a high population of Pakistani and Afghan Muslims. Okay, no problem for me because they did not attack my country and they were seeking refuge so why be mad at me, we where trying to free them from the Taliban. I went two blocks to some shops and I was harassed and attacked in Woolworth’s (Woolie’s to y’all... but they sold American stuff). I had to be spirited away by the police, driven around so anyone watching would not know where I was staying and they took me to the place my ex was working and it was, how do I say this, not a place problems like this should be put on their doorstep. (It had to do with an F1 team, but not the F1 site! I was even more humiliated! It was my birthday, newly married and I did not want him to get in any trouble. Toby Kieth came out with two songs “Next thing on my List” a little less obvious that it was about 9/11, but when he heard about how Americans abroad were coming under attack, he came out with “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue... the Angry American”! A true patriotic song about our country an our freedoms... not the government.... it was about how we were attacked. Toby went to American bases and did concerts, met people and signed autographs. Then he went into the battle zones. He trained so he would not be a burden to the forces on the ground. He went more times than the USO! Toby Kieth was just his true self and he did not change for anyone. He wrote and sang silly, crazy songs that anyone else would have been laughed at and thrown out of country music for and his slow songs were beautiful. Like Kenny Rogers, he had the raspy, gravelly type voice who made those love songs and sad songs even better. His true talent was having fun with his music and he has so many songs that are just laugh out loud and you love them. So, my requests would be for the videos “I Wanna Talk About Me”, “How Do You Like Me Now”, “Trailerhood”, “Whiskey For My Men, Beer For My Horses”, “I’ll never smoke weed with Willie Nelson again” and The Ultimate Toby Kieth Song (that only he could ever do) “Red Solo Cup”! There’s more but if you want to laugh, you can’t go wrong with Toby! He leaves a giant hole! Go Rest In Peace Toby, you earned it.... from a grateful American who is patriotic as well! We will miss you! “Don’t let the old man in” will break you down into tears! 🇺🇸 Also, Toby Kieth discovered Taylor Swift and he was in with Scott Borchetta starting Big Machine Records and helped Taylor get her first recording contract, before stabbing them both in the back!!!! You really should read about all the charity work he did. He was amazing!
A true 'one of a kind'. He wore his heart on his sleeve when he sang. He was a character and from stories I've heard cut quite a swath wherever he went. His heart was as big as his stature, and you always knew where you stood with him. He will be missed.
My father, when he was younger, was in the US army working logistics. Toby Keith was doing a tour for the troops and my dad helped him go around to different places in his area. Afterwards he had lunch with Toby Keith. My dad gained a lot of respect for him because of him doing the tour for the troops. He was hit hard by his passing.
I hope your Dad gets the joke! It's sounds like loads of fun! "I Should've Been a Cowboy" was the first Toby Keith song I ever heard and I fell in love with his sense of humor right away!
I first heard Toby Keith's "I Wanna Talk Bout Me" about 20 years ago, give or take, and that was when I fell in love with his music. Fun and heartfelt. Rest in peace, Toby.
Toby Keith was one awesome singer, songwriter, Christian and great man. He supported our military and as a Navy SEAL wife, we truly appreciated his support. Love this man and his music will live on for us. We will miss him so much. RIP Toby, Heaven got a cowboy angel!
"I wanna talk about me" was always one of my favorites songs. Has it really been 20 plus years? "Beer for my horses" with Willie Nelson also stands out.
one of my favorite bar songs back in my day in the military...and unfortunately heard "courtesy of the red white and blue" a few too many times while deployed...RIP my friend.
Beer For My Horses and How Do You Like Me Now are my two favorite Toby Keith songs, and I think you would probably enjoy those videos too. Thank you for your reactions!
Toby Keith had so many great songs so whether you need to hear something heartfelt, patriotic, romantic, sad, melancholy, inspiring, thoughtful, or just plain funny, yeah especially funny, then Toby’s got what you need. My favorite songs by Toby Keith are Who’s That Man; Wish I Didn’t Know Now; You Shouldn’t Kiss Me Like That; He Ain’t Worth Missing; We Were In Love; Upstairs Downtown; Don't Let the Old Man In; How Do You Like Me Now; Made in America; I Wanna Talk About Me; American Soldier; Trailerhood; A Little Too Late; A Little Less Talk and a Lot More Action; and of course Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue. RIP Toby, we miss you!
TK served on 12 USO (United Service Organizations) tours, including 240 concerts. Many of these performances were in hot zones and satellite bases. At least one of them was interrupted by an incoming mortar attack. Every one of the tours were at his own expense. Toby Keith is an American patriot! “Never apologize for being patriotic. Fuck em!” -Toby Keith
A long time ago, right when he was just starting his career, I was lucky to see Toby Keith in concert. It was at a country bar called In Cahoots, in San Diego. It was a small venue and we were so close to the little stage that we could have reached out and touched him. He did a meet and greet and I got a signed photo of him. Such a wonderful memory for me. Rest in Peace Toby.
Toby was a very unique force in country music. He came up right around the same time that the genre had a giant shift from the classic "old" country sound to the more modern sound. He stayed relevant through that transition and wasn't afraid to change or try something new musically. He was equally brilliant at creating music that was pure comedy, as well as music that makes you reflective, thoughtful, prideful, etc. Never took himself too seriously or was boastful. He did a lot for our veterans overseas, making countless trips overseas to perform for troops. He also helped bring up other artists that he saw who had talent, always willing to help the "next one in line". He held the respect of many who came before him, and many who came after. He left his mark, a very large one.
He was such an awesome human. He’s from my home state, Oklahoma, and was such a huge Oklahoma Sooners fan. I will never forget I went to New Orleans to watch the Sooners play Alabama in the 2014 Sugar Bowl and the night before the game a lot of fans were gathered down in the lobby of the hotel the team was staying at to catch some of the players to say hi and take pictures and Toby Keith was down at the bar with all of us hanging out and visiting. I got a picture with him at the bar that night and I’ll never forget it. And he just hung out with everyone down there just like any other OU fan!
I've been a huge fan of Toby's since he came out in 1993, been to 6 concerts always never far from the stage and I know every song from every album released or not by heart. His song "Me too" is special to me and my husband cause it's our song that we first danced to as husband and wife and it's still our song to this day. I wish you would check it out it is a very sweet song. R.I.P. to a true country and American icon Toby Keith! You may be gone but will never be forgotten or replaced trust me there will never be anyone else like Toby.
I can more than relate to this song. I'm 46, I now have a heart condition, I had a minor stroke 6 months ago, and I'm a bit out of shape. I still feel like I could tear someone up in a fight. But I do believe one of the main reasons is I was a paratrooper in the US Army. There's a reason there's a meme that says something along the line of, "Don't mess with the paratroopers. That's a whole different level of crazy."
Toby was so great at writing great lyrics that told a story but his videos were so funny. He wasn't afraid to poke fun at himself to add humor into his videos. RIP Big Dog.
I still like country music now, but I listened to it a lot more in the late '90s/early '00s, and that was prime Toby Keith to me. Here's some of my favorite songs (and why): "Should've Been a Cowboy" (classic Toby) "How Do You Like Me Now?!" (a "prove the haters wrong" song) "Get Drunk and Be Somebody" (a "time to unwind" song) "I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying" (a "getting through a breakup/divorce" song) "You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This" (a solid country ballad)
As musicians and storytellers, I can't help but love Travis Tritt, Toby Keith, and Trace Atkins. Among all the greats, I always seem to go back to those three.
I'd love to have you react to "Should've Been a Cowboy" Luke. When I was a freshman in college in `93, this song hit the radio waves and was a huge hit. I was nervous being away from home (living in the dorms.) Anytime this song came on, I would relax and smile. It really warms my heart to see so many people paying homage to Toby Keith, a good one gone too soon 🤠
You need to see Beer for my horses with Willie Nelson. It’s like a small movie!!!! He had a lot of great video’s and songs. Some make you laugh, some make you cry. He sure will be missed. I seen in concert at least 4 times. Great shows. He would have been married 40 years next month. Had 1 son and 2 daughters and several grandchildren.
The first time I saw this video, I laughed for a good solid 10 minutes! He has many great song. One of my favorites is "I Want to Talk about Me!" Hilarious!
Theres a reason why of all his accolades he was most proud of being inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. For instance he took a throwaway comment from Clint Eastwood, after they played a game of golf together, and in turn wrote his most poignant songs, Don't Let The Old Man In. He sung it in one of his last televised performance, not a dry eye in the place.
To the UK, I'm tickled that u react the same way your cousin across the lake reacted. Courtesy of the red white & blue (as a Texan) has ALWAYS been a favorite of mine but tbh, Toby Keith Colver, God rest his soul, will always be, by far, 1 of my favorite singers (& i dont even get into country music)
Love all your reactions. Especially love your like of Toby Keith. If you like the light-hearted side of Toby, have you listened to/watched "I wanna talk about me", and "Red Solo cup?" The red Solo cup is an American staple at parties, BBQ's, sports events, etc. Kind of a frat party vibe. Here, the Solo cup is as common as eating on paper plates. Not classy, but announces fun.
💖 Thank you SO much! Can't think of a better tribute to our Big Dawg Daddy than to be sharing laughter (or tears) with his music. Gosh is he special, eh? When my daughter was five, her favorite song was "Beer for my Horses" and she sang the chorus ALL THE TIME but with her own little twist. Carolina Dawn had the best little gray Shetland pony named Stoney Mac and she changed the words to, "whiskey for my men, root beer for my Stoney!" Carrie is 26 now but i can still hear it 🥹 "Beer For My Horses" would be a good one for you to react to. Talk about a mini movie! Again, thank you. This one hurts. But it has been so comforting to see all of these hundreds of reactions videos and watch so many others discover what we Toby Keith fans have always known. Rest gentle, cowboy. We'll keep your music playing... 🙏🕯️ ~🩵☘️🥀
As a young British guy, I don’t think you could have paid a higher tribute to Toby. Thank you! I’ve been a country music gal since the early 90’s. Toby was always in my country music vocabulary. But, I believe, where he became cross genre/cross political/cross international boundaries was with “Angry American” song and the “negative” media from that. It’s the perfect Streisand effect . He put in words the things so many people felt. We had Johnny, Bocephus and Toby…who’s gonna fill those big ol’ shoes?
Great reaction!!!! I love Toby Keith and his support for the military being a retired military member. He can give us good laughs, and be serious as well.
Please react to Toby singing “Don’t Let the Old Man In” live only 5 months before his death…..awesome performance. And “Crying For Me”. Great songs!! ❤
Toby & I are about the same age & from the same neck of the woods, I’ve been a fan since he started out but never got the chance to see him live. Ten years ago I was at Oaklawn Race track in Hot Springs Arkansas walking inside & saw him coming in the opposite direction right towards me. I didn’t want to draw any attention to him, so I just waited until we were about 5ft away from each other & gave him a nod & a big smile & didn’t slow down. He tipped his hat to me & gave me a wink & a big grin 😀 He was there running a horse of his that day, if I would have known which one, I would have bet on it! RIP brother, your work here was done.❤
Toby was a Patriot, comedian, authentic country singer, and he loved his family. I saw him in concert (Coors Field, Denver), and Montgomery Gentry opened for him. It was a bit rowdy, and lot of fun. My favorites of his were You Shouldn't Kiss me Like that, I Wanna Talk about Me, and Red Solo Cup. Sad that of the 3 men I went to see that night, now 2 of them have passed, too young. Toby also starred in 2 movies, one which he wrote. One final Hell Yeah to Toby Keith! R.I.P.
Loved the reaction! A couple Toby songs I'd love to see you react to are "How Do You Like Me Now" you'll love it if you ever had that certain person when you were younger not really thinking you'd become anything when you got older. The video is funny too! and "Beer for My Horses" It features another huge name in Country, Willie Nelson. This one is basically talks about laying down the law....like in the olden days. (like hanging in the streets for crimes) again, the video is funny! I really hope you will react to them! ^,^
His collection is awesome, especially being that he was a prolific song writer. I have to say two of my top favs are, How do you like me now?, and American Soldier. Check them out!
I’m super happy and grateful this was the music I grew up on. Losing Toby felt like a part of my childhood is lost. Used to blast him on CMT every night dancing at my grandparents house; having my pawpaw singing… just the absolute best times. He has so many hits. Such a loss ❤️
my top Toby songs are "Don't let the old man in" was one of his last singles we released "american Soldier" "beer for my horses" are probably my favorites, defiantly 100% worth checking out
So this is how I find this out, huh? Such sad news... Great reaction, Luke! I love this song, but I have never seen the MV. That was SO Toby and such a fun watch. RIP Toby Keith
You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This is another Toby Keith song with great reversal writing similar to this one (good as I once was / good once as I ever was type thing), but in a love ballad. I think you'd like it a lot!
As rumor has it, back in the day, whenever Toby was on stage singing and a fight breaks out in the audience, he would get off the stage to break up the fight or challenge the guy that started the shit! LOL
❤️ Rest in Peace Toby ❤️
React to his hit 90s-00s song I SHOULD HAVE BEEN A COWBOY
"I wanna talk about me" is my personal favorite keith song other than "american soldier"
Both worth reacting to imo
please react to indonesian band call

Toby Keith was the best! There will never be another Toby. He was larger then life. He had so many talents, songwriter, musician, actor & more. He loved his family very much. God Speed Toby 💔
Several years ago my wife had a Adoption Awareness event in Oklahoma City and Toby came by the booth and struck a conversation up. He found out my daughter was a big fan and that she had the flu.

Wow. Thanks for sharing. This story gave me chills.
The day before Toby passed away, his Trailorhood song got stuck in my head randomly and I had to listen to it like 5 times. RIP Toby. You were one of the last great country artists.
The SAME thing happened to me except it was literally this song "as good as I once was"... that's actually very weird but I cried so hard after he passed and I was listening to his top hits on Pandora. Listened to this song again and it hit so different after he passed :(
This is the 1st I've heard of this. *calls up the folks to pass the info*
One of the saddest things is we won't have anymore. We talk about OGs. Toby Keith ranks right up there. He was and always will be the best.
I was lucky enough to meet him and his wife once in 2014 at his restaraunt in Vegas. The restaraunt was shut down cause he was there and his wife saw me peek in wearing one of his shirts. She brought me in and he popped out of no where. Sat with me for an hour and just chatted. Took pics, gave me merch and signed stuff for me. He was such a sweet down to earth man. He will truly be missed. ❤
Toby Keith, you were "Made in America" "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue". May there always be "Beer for My Horses" in "Red Solo Cups". Ya know, "I Should of Been a Cowboy" with "A Little Less Talk and a Lot More Action". But that was "Beers Ago"..."I Love This Bar" to "Get Drunk and be Somebody" like with all those "Drunk Americans" and the "Whiskey Girl". Toby Keith, you were a "True American Soldier" RIP.
RIP Toby! I’m from Oklahoma & he would just pop up at bars & do a few songs. He was a very nice guy & did so much for our troops & many charities he never even took credit for. Also, Toby was 6’3 or 6’4 so that man that punched him had to be a giant 😂
Toby wrote a song when a friend of his passed away from cancer. It communicates how I feel about Toby today. Ppl lease react to “Cryin’ for Me”. The video with pictures is the best b
Yes that one is a tear-jerker.
That song. 😢
Toby, on his own, can make you feel the ups and downs, laugh and cry, and it’s awesome. Between his respect for our troops with American Soldier and Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue, to his funny side like this song and I Wanna Talk About Me and How Do You Like Me Now and Red Solo Cup, then his beautiful love ballads like Crash Here Tonight and You Shouldn’t Kiss Me Like This. And his storytelling is amplified in Beer For My Horses. But if you wanna see how big his heart truly is, you should see his dedication to Wayman Tisdale, Crying For Me…which now describes how we feel about him, too. My personal fave? Whiskey Girl. I always felt like that song was written for me. ;-)
I love this song so much as well as
"I should have been a cowboy"
"Beer for my horses"
"Courtesy of the red, white, and blue"
"American soldier"
"Whiskey girl"
To name a few
Also, he started a foundation for cancer patients to keep them and their families comfortable during their stay through chemo and stuff... amazing human being.
I love you Luke, you are such an empath and I LOVE that you share that side of you with us online... it's very rare anymore for people to care so much, please never change!
he did angry american(courtesy or red white and blue) already
@@ChadsFat nice :)
In the Trailerhood is my favorite. It always makes me laugh since it reminds me of my family.

If you want a music video that feels like a mini movie;
I recommend "Beer for My Horses" if you haven't already reacted to it.
A true 'one of a kind'. He wore his heart on his sleeve when he sang. He was a character and from stories I've heard cut quite a swath wherever he went. His heart was as big as his stature, and you always knew where you stood with him. He will be missed.
My father, when he was younger, was in the US army working logistics. Toby Keith was doing a tour for the troops and my dad helped him go around to different places in his area. Afterwards he had lunch with Toby Keith. My dad gained a lot of respect for him because of him doing the tour for the troops. He was hit hard by his passing.
What a beautiful reaction! Yes, he would want to be remembered with a smile. Absolutely! RIP
R.I.P Toby. Loved his faith in the Lord, his patriotism and his music and videos
I hope your Dad gets the joke! It's sounds like loads of fun! "I Should've Been a Cowboy" was the first Toby Keith song I ever heard and I fell in love with his sense of humor right away!
I first heard Toby Keith's "I Wanna Talk Bout Me" about 20 years ago, give or take, and that was when I fell in love with his music. Fun and heartfelt. Rest in peace, Toby.
Toby Keith was one awesome singer, songwriter, Christian and great man. He supported our military and as a Navy SEAL wife, we truly appreciated his support. Love this man and his music will live on for us. We will miss him so much. RIP Toby, Heaven got a cowboy angel!
This song and "I wanna talk about me" are my 2 favorite Toby Keith songs ❤ he will definitely be missed!
"I wanna talk about me" was always one of my favorites songs. Has it really been 20 plus years? "Beer for my horses" with Willie Nelson also stands out.
As a 41 year old, this song rings truer and truer with each passing year, lol.
Toby is playing in honky tonk heaven now. R.I.P TOBY ❤
If you pick another of his songs, another good one is "I wanna talk about me"
one of my favorite bar songs back in my day in the military...and unfortunately heard "courtesy of the red white and blue" a few too many times while deployed...RIP my friend.
RIP Toby Keith, Great American 🇺🇸 and a Country Legend.
Beer For My Horses and How Do You Like Me Now are my two favorite Toby Keith songs, and I think you would probably enjoy those videos too. Thank you for your reactions!
Toby Keith had so many great songs so whether you need to hear something heartfelt, patriotic, romantic, sad, melancholy, inspiring, thoughtful, or just plain funny, yeah especially funny, then Toby’s got what you need. My favorite songs by Toby Keith are Who’s That Man; Wish I Didn’t Know Now; You Shouldn’t Kiss Me Like That; He Ain’t Worth Missing; We Were In Love; Upstairs Downtown; Don't Let the Old Man In; How Do You Like Me Now; Made in America; I Wanna Talk About Me; American Soldier; Trailerhood; A Little Too Late; A Little Less Talk and a Lot More Action; and of course Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue. RIP Toby, we miss you!
He was not only a good musician and singer, but a good actor too........and a good man. You won't be forgotten, Toby.
TK served on 12 USO (United Service Organizations) tours, including 240 concerts. Many of these performances were in hot zones and satellite bases. At least one of them was interrupted by an incoming mortar attack. Every one of the tours were at his own expense. Toby Keith is an American patriot!
“Never apologize for being patriotic. Fuck em!”
-Toby Keith
A long time ago, right when he was just starting his career, I was lucky to see Toby Keith in concert. It was at a country bar called In Cahoots, in San Diego. It was a small venue and we were so close to the little stage that we could have reached out and touched him. He did a meet and greet and I got a signed photo of him. Such a wonderful memory for me. Rest in Peace Toby.
Toby was a very unique force in country music. He came up right around the same time that the genre had a giant shift from the classic "old" country sound to the more modern sound. He stayed relevant through that transition and wasn't afraid to change or try something new musically. He was equally brilliant at creating music that was pure comedy, as well as music that makes you reflective, thoughtful, prideful, etc. Never took himself too seriously or was boastful. He did a lot for our veterans overseas, making countless trips overseas to perform for troops. He also helped bring up other artists that he saw who had talent, always willing to help the "next one in line". He held the respect of many who came before him, and many who came after. He left his mark, a very large one.
He was such an awesome human. He’s from my home state, Oklahoma, and was such a huge Oklahoma Sooners fan. I will never forget I went to New Orleans to watch the Sooners play Alabama in the 2014 Sugar Bowl and the night before the game a lot of fans were gathered down in the lobby of the hotel the team was staying at to catch some of the players to say hi and take pictures and Toby Keith was down at the bar with all of us hanging out and visiting. I got a picture with him at the bar that night and I’ll never forget it. And he just hung out with everyone down there just like any other OU fan!
I've been a huge fan of Toby's since he came out in 1993, been to 6 concerts always never far from the stage and I know every song from every album released or not by heart. His song "Me too" is special to me and my husband cause it's our song that we first danced to as husband and wife and it's still our song to this day. I wish you would check it out it is a very sweet song. R.I.P. to a true country and American icon Toby Keith! You may be gone but will never be forgotten or replaced trust me there will never be anyone else like Toby.
I can more than relate to this song. I'm 46, I now have a heart condition, I had a minor stroke 6 months ago, and I'm a bit out of shape. I still feel like I could tear someone up in a fight. But I do believe one of the main reasons is I was a paratrooper in the US Army. There's a reason there's a meme that says something along the line of, "Don't mess with the paratroopers. That's a whole different level of crazy."
Toby was so great at writing great lyrics that told a story but his videos were so funny. He wasn't afraid to poke fun at himself to add humor into his videos. RIP Big Dog.
Me and my husband have always loved Toby's "I Love This Bar"... it's another one that will make you smile.
I still like country music now, but I listened to it a lot more in the late '90s/early '00s, and that was prime Toby Keith to me.
Here's some of my favorite songs (and why):
"Should've Been a Cowboy" (classic Toby)
"How Do You Like Me Now?!" (a "prove the haters wrong" song)
"Get Drunk and Be Somebody" (a "time to unwind" song)
"I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying" (a "getting through a breakup/divorce" song)
"You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This" (a solid country ballad)
Oh I am a huge fan of Toby’s he will always be my favorite country music singer. RIP Toby ❤️
As musicians and storytellers, I can't help but love Travis Tritt, Toby Keith, and Trace Atkins. Among all the greats, I always seem to go back to those three.
I love his humor in his music/videos. He will be sorely missed.
I'd love to have you react to "Should've Been a Cowboy" Luke. When I was a freshman in college in `93, this song hit the radio waves and was a huge hit. I was nervous being away from home (living in the dorms.) Anytime this song came on, I would relax and smile. It really warms my heart to see so many people paying homage to Toby Keith, a good one gone too soon 🤠
Beer For my Horses us also a good song with a hilarious vid also features country legend Willie Nelson
RIP Toby Keith! Thanks ❤️ Much Love!
You need to see Beer for my horses with Willie Nelson. It’s like a small movie!!!! He had a lot of great video’s and songs. Some make you laugh, some make you cry. He sure will be missed. I seen in concert at least 4 times. Great shows. He would have been married 40 years next month. Had 1 son and 2 daughters and several grandchildren.
Not a C & W fan. But I liked me some TK. When my wife told me he passed, I had tears in my eyes. RIP, Toby and thanks for all you've left us.
The first time I saw this video, I laughed for a good solid 10 minutes! He has many great song. One of my favorites is "I Want to Talk about Me!" Hilarious!
Theres a reason why of all his accolades he was most proud of being inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. For instance he took a throwaway comment from Clint Eastwood, after they played a game of golf together, and in turn wrote his most poignant songs, Don't Let The Old Man In. He sung it in one of his last televised performance, not a dry eye in the place.
To the UK, I'm tickled that u react the same way your cousin across the lake reacted. Courtesy of the red white & blue (as a Texan) has ALWAYS been a favorite of mine but tbh, Toby Keith Colver, God rest his soul, will always be, by far, 1 of my favorite singers (& i dont even get into country music)
He was so good, and I’m gonna miss him so much. Fun song. 😂
Love all your reactions. Especially love your like of Toby Keith. If you like the light-hearted side of Toby, have you listened to/watched "I wanna talk about me", and "Red Solo cup?" The red Solo cup is an American staple at parties, BBQ's, sports events, etc. Kind of a frat party vibe. Here, the Solo cup is as common as eating on paper plates. Not classy, but announces fun.
I’m crying for me. He wrote for his best friend (Wayman Tisdale). There’s so many of Toby. RIP TK
friggen hilarious music video!
💖 Thank you SO much! Can't think of a better tribute to our Big Dawg Daddy than to be sharing laughter (or tears) with his music. Gosh is he special, eh?
When my daughter was five, her favorite song was "Beer for my Horses" and she sang the chorus ALL THE TIME but with her own little twist. Carolina Dawn had the best little gray Shetland pony named Stoney Mac and she changed the words to, "whiskey for my men, root beer for my Stoney!" Carrie is 26 now but i can still hear it 🥹
"Beer For My Horses" would be a good one for you to react to. Talk about a mini movie!
Again, thank you. This one hurts. But it has been so comforting to see all of these hundreds of reactions videos and watch so many others discover what we Toby Keith fans have always known. Rest gentle, cowboy. We'll keep your music playing... 🙏🕯️
~🩵☘️🥀
As a young British guy, I don’t think you could have paid a higher tribute to Toby. Thank you!
I’ve been a country music gal since the early 90’s. Toby was always in my country music vocabulary. But, I believe, where he became cross genre/cross political/cross international boundaries was with “Angry American” song and the “negative” media from that. It’s the perfect Streisand effect . He put in words the things so many people felt.
We had Johnny, Bocephus and Toby…who’s gonna fill those big ol’ shoes?
Great reaction!!!! I love Toby Keith and his support for the military being a retired military member. He can give us good laughs, and be serious as well.
Met him in a restaurant he was very down to earth sweet man… he’s definitely missed
Great reaction to this great song/video!! RIP Toby...
One song from Toby that you really must hear is, (I Love This Bar). Trust me it is simply a wonderful song.
Have you seen Red Solo Cup? See it.
"Courtesy of the Red, White and blue, (the angry American)" - written after 911 or "An American Solider" are two of my favorites by Toby
This one made us laugh but the newest one Don't Let The Old Man In will make you cry...such talent!
Great reaction / tribute to Toby Keith.
i love this bar is my favorite by toby keith. 😄
Please react to Toby singing “Don’t Let the Old Man In” live only 5 months before his death…..awesome performance. And “Crying For Me”. Great songs!! ❤
American Soldier is one of my favorite songs by him, Rest In Peace Toby.
We all walk tall after a few wobble pops lol. Great reaction.
Toby & I are about the same age & from the same neck of the woods, I’ve been a fan since he started out but never got the chance to see him live. Ten years ago I was at Oaklawn Race track in Hot Springs Arkansas walking inside & saw him coming in the opposite direction right towards me. I didn’t want to draw any attention to him, so I just waited until we were about 5ft away from each other & gave him a nod & a big smile & didn’t slow down. He tipped his hat to me & gave me a wink & a big grin 😀 He was there running a horse of his that day, if I would have known which one, I would have bet on it! RIP brother, your work here was done.❤
Toby was a Patriot, comedian, authentic country singer, and he loved his family.
I saw him in concert (Coors Field, Denver), and Montgomery Gentry opened for him. It was a bit rowdy, and lot of fun. My favorites of his were You Shouldn't Kiss me Like that, I Wanna Talk about Me, and Red Solo Cup.
Sad that of the 3 men I went to see that night, now 2 of them have passed, too young.
Toby also starred in 2 movies, one which he wrote.
One final Hell Yeah to Toby Keith! R.I.P.
Loved the reaction! A couple Toby songs I'd love to see you react to are "How Do You Like Me Now" you'll love it if you ever had that certain person when you were younger not really thinking you'd become anything when you got older. The video is funny too! and "Beer for My Horses" It features another huge name in Country, Willie Nelson. This one is basically talks about laying down the law....like in the olden days. (like hanging in the streets for crimes) again, the video is funny! I really hope you will react to them! ^,^
Who’s your Daddy by Toby is awesome!❤️🇺🇸
great video. had the pleasure to see Toby Keith several years ago on his USO tour. Definitely will be missed
You should def check out "Should've Been a Cowboy', "I Wanna Talk about Me' , 'Beer for My Horses-with Willie Nelson' and "I Love this Bar'.
Great reaction. R.I.P Toby ❤❤
RIP Toby! 🕊️🙏🏻
Red solo cup is one of my favorite song.
ive always said if i make it in the music industry and can play my home town im playing his song "how do you like me now"
i love this bar and this one is my fav
He was a great artist who will be greatly missed. He is the one who originally signed Taylor Swift to his record label btw.
"Nevermind, Toby".....😂
I love this bar is the best country song ever
His collection is awesome, especially being that he was a prolific song writer. I have to say two of my top favs are, How do you like me now?, and American Soldier. Check them out!
I’m super happy and grateful this was the music I grew up on. Losing Toby felt like a part of my childhood is lost. Used to blast him on CMT every night dancing at my grandparents house; having my pawpaw singing… just the absolute best times. He has so many hits. Such a loss ❤️
❤one of the best
Toby has so many funny songs. He was very talented ❤ have you heard - I wanna talk about me?
My hometown boy ❤
my top Toby songs are
"Don't let the old man in" was one of his last singles we released
"american Soldier"
"beer for my horses" are probably my favorites, defiantly 100% worth checking out
Toby remade Mockingbird with his daughter. She is amazing in her own right. The song is great!
Whiskey Girl is my favorite by him, but this one is a close second.
❤Country Boys!!! Will survive. See you on the other side brother Toby.
I think you would enjoy Toby Keith "Gotta Get You Some." So funny and also like a short movie that tells a story.
So this is how I find this out, huh? Such sad news... Great reaction, Luke! I love this song, but I have never seen the MV. That was SO Toby and such a fun watch. RIP Toby Keith
Courtesy of the red white and blue. Great song regarding our military around the world everyday ❤.
He will be missed, he was great. Thank you for doing this. From Barbara in USA
"Beer for my Horses" is probably my favorite of his. Fantastic video, too.
This is my husband's favorite song, he sings it at the top of his lungs every time he hears it. Horribly of course. #RIP
Rest is Peace Toby. You will be missed.
You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This is another Toby Keith song with great reversal writing similar to this one (good as I once was / good once as I ever was type thing), but in a love ballad. I think you'd like it a lot!
As rumor has it, back in the day, whenever Toby was on stage singing and a fight breaks out in the audience, he would get off the stage to break up the fight or challenge the guy that started the shit! LOL
RIP Toby one of the greats. Please check out love this bar by Toby Keith
