My mom never danced in front of us kids , one day after school I walked in on her dancing and singing this song , 1970 was the year. So she started dancing with me singing along with this one . She is 87 now , One memory I will always cherish.
My mom passed 2 yrs ago, and this song will always remind me of her. She might sing this to one of her 6 kids who were crying, or complaining about something. Basically saying, get over it, life isn’t always fair. ❤
Now this is my mama's country music! Lynn Anderson, Tammy Wynette, Jeannie C. Riley, Loretta Lynn... as a kid I didn't have the appreciation for these artists that I have today. But she had the "Country and Western" radio station on all the time, and songs like this take me back. Thanks for a very pleasant memory!
I love this song. This song was originally written for a male singer, but Lynn talked her husband and the Nashville execs to let her record it. Turned out to be a great decision.
As a preschooler, I LOVED this song. So much so that my parents bought me the 45 & a Lynne Anderson autographed record player. Several years back, visiting my Mom, we were in her 1st car which could pair with a phone. I put on a playlist &, when this song started, she said, "You've GOT to be KIDDING!" We both laughed and I sang along.
Love this song! Some other hits from that time period are Donna Fargo's "Happiest Girl in the USA", Tony Orlando and Dawn's "Knock Three Times", and Anne Murray's "Snowbird".
What a great song!!! Lynn performs this so well!! “Rose Garden,” written by Joe South, became a crossover hit, soaring to the top of both the country and pop charts and earning Ms. Anderson a Grammy in 1971.
This was one of the few country songs that I heard when I was a kid (I was 10 in 1970) because this was played a lot on the pop radio stations when it first came out.
"Hush" (Deep Purple), "Down in the Boondocks" (Billy Joe Royal), "Rose Garden" (Lynn Anderson), "Games People Play" (Joe South), "Walk a Mile in my Shoes" (Joe South), and "Don't it Make you Want to go Home" (Joe South), a list of great songs written or performed by Joe South. That guy was a real song writer.
Bro...understatement. lol. He was a true American musical treasure. I'm glad to see another big fan. Should we tell Amber the title is just "Rose Garden"? lol.
WOW . . . This song for this couple especially . . . NOW . . . The lyrics carry more weight than it ever did 3:31 . Shout out to Jordan. Listen to it Again . . . We Love You Both
This was a crossover hit as it was played not only on Country stations but Adult Contemporary stations as well. According to Wikipedia " The song became a crossover hit after it reached both the American Billboard country and pop charts. "Rose Garden" also became a major hit worldwide, reaching the number one spot in multiple countries."
This period in the 70s I think is when country music started to crossover. Fm radio was becoming mainstream and country music started to resurge with a new young generation of listeners.
Now you’ve gotta do: “THE HARPER VALLEY P.T.A. “. By Jeannie C. Riley Great story song , momma went in to their meeting and really told them off!!! I really think you’ll like it!!
A number one hit here back in the day. I loved it as a kid. Being a 10 year old danish kid i didn`t understand a word, didn`t stop me from singing along😄
This song was a mega-hit. It was on the radio ALL THE TIME. And I remember everyone singing to it no matter what they were doing, they would stop and start singing it - it was that catchy. Lynn Anderson was inducted into the Country Western Hall of Fame and she was on television with great regularity all through the 1970s.
I was 8 when this song came out in 1970. She was a featured singer on "Lawrence Welk" Show. This song even went to number one on the pop charts. What a blast from the past!
What is crazy is that my Mom took me to see her at the Grand Ole Opry house and she was in concert with Tina Turner and Neil Diamond! What a crazy mix but of the 3 i remember how much i was drawn to Tina Turner and her performance of Proud Mary! My parents loved music and made sure to introduce me to all genres. Watching you two reminds me so much of the appreciation i have of my parents and i have made sure to introduce my own 3 sons to all the genres as well.
Best part of this song is”you better look before you leap, still waters run deep and there won’t always be someone there to pull you out”. Great song, love you guys.
Years later, this song was sampled in an 80s radio hit by a band call Kon Kan. Their song is I Beg Your Pardon and it has that big 80s sound that Jay likes.
This song went to number 1 on both the country and pop charts and number 1 in 16 different countries back on 1970-71 and gave her her 1st Grammy. Please listen to more of her she has a powerful range and can belt out notes big time. May she rest in peace. And she's so beautiful
This is Lynn's signature song a huge hit for number one on the Billboard country and western charts in late 1970 it reached number three on Billboard pop singles chart in early 1971 RIP Lynn 🌺
That was back in the time when country stars were huge crossovers. Kids like me who grew up hating country music still knew Lynn Anderson, Dolly Parton, Conway Twitty, Lorertta Lynn, etc. Shows like Hee Haw and the Porter Wagoner show were hard to avoid when your country music loving parents controlled the TV. That was before kids had TVs in their rooms and long before cable. They were all over the radio too, even stations that just played pop and rock would slip in the occasional Charlie Rich or Johnny Cash song among the many other crossover country stars of the day.
Whoa! You just about described my own childhood perfectly!! My dad was in a country band and played on weekends a lot, so as kids there were lots of get togethers at our house filled with local musicians. Our basement was full of instruments, too. Meanwhile, I couldn't care less about country music, but I sure couldn't escape it. As a kid, I went to concerts with mom and dad, seeing Merle, Buck, Porter, Bill Anderson, and many others. Of course, looking back on it now, I realize it really was extraordinary. But as a kid, I thought nothing about it and didn't appreciate it at all. Wow!
Such great memories. 50 years later and I know every word. Can’t remember what I did yesterday but these old song I never forget. Thanks for reacting to this.
Again memories of my mom listening to the radio 📻 all the words came rushing back to me and sang right along. Thank-you for sharing the love of music and bringing memories to me. Love you guys ✌🎶🎵💜
Oh man! I remember this song when I was 8 in 1971. Country crossed into the pop chart more often in the 70s and this was a big country crossover, for sure
I remember this song from when I was a teen back in the early 70s. It was always on the radio. It was a Country Western song, but it was so big, that even the AM Pop Radio stations were playing it. Seriously, after you heard it played so much, you would start quietly singing the words to yourself along with the radio, and then you would say "What am I doing, I don't like Country music? Petty funny, and we all do it.
I remember buying this vinyl record when it was released in the U.K. Still have it too! Many years of singing along and I know it word for word. How the years have raced by!
Man you went way back!! Lol brings back early memories of my mother singing this around the house. It was a big crossover hit. Charting on both the country and pop charts. Great reaction!!
Is the lighting that sings for Lydia Lydia and the ballam question oh my she's lovely I'll Thanks Oh my❤❤ Eddie antebellum doing American honey would be a good song to do❤
Wow, what a childhood memory. My mom used to play this song and seven year-old me used to sing along throughout the House. Great melody, big hit. You really should check out Alison Krauss. Angelic voice. 'Paper Airplane' and 'When You Say Nothing At All.' She also has fabulous duets with Robert Plant --- 'Gone, Gone,Gone,' 'Can't Let Go,' and 'Killing the Blues.'
Such a classic; I remember listening to my dad's album of this blaring...that's the country seed planted in my little brain...plus she's so beautiful 🤠🥰
I was born & raised a few miles from Times Square, I was not familiar with country music, never heard of Patsy Cline, but this song got on the Pop Charts & I loved it, part of my introduction to country music
Classic song. Originally written by Joe South, and recorded by numerous artists over the years (Billy Joe Royal, Joe South, Dobie Gray, Lynn Anderson, New World, k.d. lang, and Martina McBride), this is one of those songs that everybody knows. There was also a cool 80s song called "I Beg Your Pardon" by Kon Kan that sampled Lynn's version. It's VERY 80s, I think you'd love it!
It was recorded by all the other artists, but Lynn Anderson's is the known version. The other artists had little to moderate success with it ... Lynn's was a Mega-Monster hit worldwide.
just wanted to thank you for going on this musical journey you're taking and not holding back from sampling a taste of all the dishes out there, love and prayers for you and your family always.
Lynn Anderson started out on The Lawrence Welk Show. My Dad said that she wouldn't be on there for long and sure enough she went on to be a big star. She was so classy. She was also big in the world of Quarter Horses. Showing and breeding.😊❤
OK. You guys HAVE to listen to Harper Valley PTA by Jeannie C. Riley. It was written by Hall of Fame songwriter Tom T. Hall, and was a massive hit on both the country and the pop charts. There was even a TV movie made about the events in the song in the late 70s. (It's a great story song, which I know you guys love.) Love the reaction. This is one of those songs I remember hearing all my life. Peace!
As many other commentors have already said, if you were a child of the 70s and your parents listened to country, this song was heard in your house a lot. This was one of the first songs I can remember hearing, born in 68.
My Mother's youngest brother.dot.uncle... use to have a Blue Volkswagen Bug with Stereo Speakers all the way in the back where I use to Hang out all cooped up listening to Music and 1 of the Country Artists was Lynn Anderson. Wonderful voice and ❤ those days..🌹🎶🎻📻🔊
Lynn had another career right alongside her country music one. She was an accomplished equestrian rider from childhood on and horse racer who bred Quarter Horses. She won 16 national championships and many other awards. She wrote songs while at events when watching her daughter ride.
Wow! Brings back lots of memories with my mom always playing music in the house. She loved this song! I have a request for a song. Wasn’t sure where to put it. Ha ha I went to a concert of one of my favorite Country singers, Collin Raye, the other night. You have to listen to She’s With Me. It is a song about his granddaughter who had special-needs and died when she was nine. Also, while you’re at it, he sings another good song called Love, Me. Actually he sings lots of good songs! Ha ha but those two are my favorite personally. He has this wonderful writing ability to have all of his songs come full circle. You really must listen to them!.
Tammy Wynette . She has collection of hits right to her last hit 'Justified & Ancient' she performed with KLF. She started in the sixties. Her main one I remember is 'Stand by your man'.
Lynn Anderson Was On The Lawtence Welk Show Try Lynn Anderson's "Listen To A Country Song" That Sound Was A Full Orchestra And Was Known As "The Nashville Sound" And Was Prevalent In Country Music In The 1970's
It's interesting that back in the day you could hear Lynn Anderson, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Led Zeppelin and everyone else on the same radio station.
I’m 70s/80s kid, I remember hearing this growing up, my mum playing on a record player. I’m now running around and helping my mum with her chemo appointments, cancer sucks. We’re reminiscing a lot nowadays, unsure what the future holds for her. She’s 70, battling cancer. Hope for the best to all out there battling cancer🙏
I remember as a kid listening to this song on the radio. My dad saw her perform live once. She was riding in a rodeo close by where the concert was. Barrel racer, maybe. Anyway, oddly enough the concert was either Dolly and Porter or George and Tammy. Lynn stopped by in her rodeo attire. They brought her out on stage and she sang this song. The band played for her. They weren’t her band, of course. My dad was amazed by that whole thing and talked about it when he got home. From that moment on I loved her cuz she was a cowgirl. (I don’t live in the Midwest. I live in the South. I just watched lots of cowboy shows as a kid. 😁) Anyway, I love this song and I love Lynn.
I love this simple song about love and life as sung by Lynn Anderson. There was another song that I remember around this same time by Donna Fargo, which also sparkled called HAPPIEST GIRL IN THE WHOLE U.S.A. It is light and carefree and just lifts the spirit for a minute in your day. But with all due respect, none of them can hold a candle to Miss Dolly Parton. Her rendition of the MULESKINNER BLUES is an example of a voice with no equal. I recently saw her blow me away with this performance of the Ken Burns documentary o Country Music. My ears are still ringing. Find the video pf her and her bright yellow dress and press play. Then, hold onto your ears and prepare to be stunned into silence. But most of all, enjoy
Mary Chapin Carpenter, "He thinks he'll keep her", the live version with backup singers Emmylou Harris, Kathy Mattea, Trisha Yearwood, Patty Loveless, Pam Tillis and Suzy Boggus.
Remember my Mother singing this 2 me when I was a child. She said it was amazing living through the 60s for all the great music. My mother would have been 18 in 1970 when this was released. Glad my mother introduced me to so much class.
I love this tune, Amber & Jay!!! Lynn Anderson’s vocals were sampled in a cool top 20 hit from 1988 by Kon Kan called I Beg Your Pardon. Jay, since you weren’t loving Rose Garden like Amber, I strongly recommend you listen to I Beg Your Pardon!
Lynn's mom Liz Anderson wrote a couple of my favorite songs. All My Friends are Gonna Be Strangers, Merle Haggard and In the Middle of Nowhere, Charley Pride.
I’ve always loved the bass line on this song. A great country bass line. And a song I really love and have loved since it came out in 1970. Since you love Mary Chapin Carpenter, I would suggest that you will love Nanci Griffith of Austin, Texas, just as much. My introduction to Nanci was a song called Ford Econoline. I could recommend so many of her songs, but will limit it to Love at the Five and Dime, Late Night Grande Hotel, Once in a Very Blue Moon, and Trouble in the Fields, which is about a farm during the Dustbowl era. She also introduced the song From a Distance, which became a hit for Bette Midler. Nanci was amazing. Once she becomes your friend, she is ever and always your friend.
This was one of my Dad's favorite songs. We had this on a 45 & my Dad wore out so many record player needles playing this one over & over. I can't ever hear this without thinking about him. He was a fabulous father & I miss him so, so much.
These are the songs I grew up too I remembered all the words I heard it so much, it brings back so many memories good and bad lots of heartbreak and love in these times
My dad was a Hank Williams, George Jones, Merle Haggard, fan. We had a Curtis Mathis stereo. He isolated the bass trak on this once, and ive been a fan ever since. This was the Nashville sound, the very sound that Willie and Waylon rebelled against. Its all good. Its all music. Oh btw,that bas track kicks ass.
My mom never danced in front of us kids , one day after school I walked in on her dancing and singing this song , 1970 was the year. So she started dancing with me singing along with this one . She is 87 now , One memory I will always cherish.
Same here. ❤️
2 great tunes.
As a 70’s child everybody’s mum loved this song
So true.....
I miss it so bad.
I heard this so much growing up it turned into one of my karaoke classics
This and Crystal Gayle “Don’t it Make Your Brown Eyes Blue.”
true
My mom passed away years ago. She used to sing this song all the time. I love hear it it makes me think of her. She also love Marty Robbins. Elpaso
My mom passed 2 yrs ago, and this song will always remind me of her. She might sing this to one of her 6 kids who were crying, or complaining about something. Basically saying, get over it, life isn’t always fair. ❤
Same here, specially when she was cleaning the house, I miss my mom and grandma every second of the day,,love from Virginia
Don’t for get his two heart breaking songs you gave me a mountain and my woman my woman my wife
@@douglasg.9271 I am sorry for your loss maybe this song made you feel o little better
My mom loved this also❤️
Now this is my mama's country music! Lynn Anderson, Tammy Wynette, Jeannie C. Riley, Loretta Lynn... as a kid I didn't have the appreciation for these artists that I have today. But she had the "Country and Western" radio station on all the time, and songs like this take me back. Thanks for a very pleasant memory!
I grew up at a time in the 70s when country music was played on the radio mixed with pop and soul. I knew this song with many others during this time.
The Kendalls were great too.
Same here.
Jeannie C Riley sings my favorite song "Harper Valley PTA" I would love to see them react to that.
THIS IS REAL COUNTRY MUSIC.
I love this song. This song was originally written for a male singer, but Lynn talked her husband and the Nashville execs to let her record it. Turned out to be a great decision.
Lynn Anderson was Country Music Royalty. RIP Lynn 1947 - 2015
This was a monster hit back in 70s. Country/crossover hit.
As a preschooler, I LOVED this song. So much so that my parents bought me the 45 & a Lynne Anderson autographed record player. Several years back, visiting my Mom, we were in her 1st car which could pair with a phone. I put on a playlist &, when this song started, she said, "You've GOT to be KIDDING!" We both laughed and I sang along.
Love this song! Some other hits from that time period are Donna Fargo's "Happiest Girl in the USA", Tony Orlando and Dawn's "Knock Three Times", and Anne Murray's "Snowbird".
“Snowbird” ah!! Another of my old favourites. Agree with you 100%.
@@geoff2504 Danny's song too
And one of my favorites.... King of the Road
Snowbird is a MUST!
What a great song!!! Lynn performs this so well!! “Rose Garden,” written by Joe South, became a crossover hit, soaring to the top of both the country and pop charts and earning Ms. Anderson a Grammy in 1971.
I always loved Joe South's "Don't It Make You Want to Go Home."
I know a lot about pop music but you taught me something today. I didn't know this was penned by the rest Joe South. Thanks.
Walk a Mile in My Shoes and Games People Play were two other great Joe South songs
I think he recorded Rose Garden. I think he recorded YoYo (Osmonds hit) and Down In The Boondocks
This was one of the few country songs that I heard when I was a kid (I was 10 in 1970) because this was played a lot on the pop radio stations when it first came out.
"Hush" (Deep Purple), "Down in the Boondocks" (Billy Joe Royal), "Rose Garden" (Lynn Anderson), "Games People Play" (Joe South), "Walk a Mile in my Shoes" (Joe South), and "Don't it Make you Want to go Home" (Joe South), a list of great songs written or performed by Joe South. That guy was a real song writer.
All great songs. My wife hates Don't It Make You Want To Go Home but I love it LOL. I didn't know he wrote Hush.
Bro...understatement. lol. He was a true American musical treasure. I'm glad to see another big fan. Should we tell Amber the title is just "Rose Garden"? lol.
Long time radio smash hit. By the third time you hear it, you know all the words, and everybody would sing along
WOW . . . This song for this couple especially . . . NOW . . . The lyrics carry more weight than it ever did 3:31 . Shout out to Jordan. Listen to it Again . . . We Love You Both
This was a crossover hit as it was played not only on Country stations but Adult Contemporary stations as well. According to Wikipedia " The song became a crossover hit after it reached both the American Billboard country and pop charts. "Rose Garden" also became a major hit worldwide, reaching the number one spot in multiple countries."
This period in the 70s I think is when country music started to crossover. Fm radio was becoming mainstream and country music started to resurge with a new young generation of listeners.
It was played on country, pop, and adult contemporary stations ... it was such a monster hit, it was everywhere. Went No.1 in 16 countries.
Now you’ve gotta do:
“THE HARPER VALLEY P.T.A. “. By Jeannie C. Riley
Great story song , momma went in to their meeting and really told them off!!!
I really think you’ll like it!!
I was thinking the same thing halfway through this song. Jeannie C. Riley should be next!
A number one hit here back in the day. I loved it as a kid. Being a 10 year old danish kid i didn`t understand a word, didn`t stop me from singing along😄
A dance group called Kon Kan sampled this in 1988 in "I Beg Your Pardon" - and it's incredibly catchy and dance-worthy! 🙂❤
😵💫
❤
Lynn’s face just glowed when she sang!
This song was a mega-hit. It was on the radio ALL THE TIME. And I remember everyone singing to it no matter what they were doing, they would stop and start singing it - it was that catchy. Lynn Anderson was inducted into the Country Western Hall of Fame and she was on television with great regularity all through the 1970s.
I was 8 when this song came out in 1970. She was a featured singer on "Lawrence Welk" Show. This song even went to number one on the pop charts. What a blast from the past!
Yes I remember as a kid , our family was into Lawrence Welk
I was 9 and love this song.
OMG. I was born in 1962, and my Mon bought the 45 record of this song. I played it a lot, and I think the B side was "I've Been Everywhere Man".
She was actually on the Welk Show from 67-68. Then she left to start on her on.
What is crazy is that my Mom took me to see her at the Grand Ole Opry house and she was in concert with Tina Turner and Neil Diamond! What a crazy mix but of the 3 i remember how much i was drawn to Tina Turner and her performance of Proud Mary! My parents loved music and made sure to introduce me to all genres. Watching you two reminds me so much of the appreciation i have of my parents and i have made sure to introduce my own 3 sons to all the genres as well.
You must have been there to see her CBS special that was being taped. Around 1977 Tina was one of her guests.
Best part of this song is”you better look before you leap, still waters run deep and there won’t always be someone there to pull you out”. Great song, love you guys.
My first celebrity crush -- when I was 5 years old! Biggest hit for several years I think.
Years later, this song was sampled in an 80s radio hit by a band call Kon Kan. Their song is I Beg Your Pardon and it has that big 80s sound that Jay likes.
Ta I remember the smile for a while but being sampled cause I can hear it in my head but couldn't remember anything else.
YESSS! Just suggested Kon Kan to them on another video, searched it and found your comment.
We were married in 1972, when this song was still new. It was SO popular. Everyone was singing this song. Who couldn't like this. Every word !!!!!!!!
Songs from the past had meaning and was like poetry.
My all time favourite Country song by a female. GREAT! ❤
This song went to number 1 on both the country and pop charts and number 1 in 16 different countries back on 1970-71 and gave her her 1st Grammy. Please listen to more of her she has a powerful range and can belt out notes big time. May she rest in peace. And she's so beautiful
This is Lynn's signature song a huge hit for number one on the Billboard country and western charts in late 1970 it reached number three on Billboard pop singles chart in early 1971 RIP Lynn 🌺
Awww, the sounds of my childhood. Makes me miss my mom. I can picture her singing along with the radio.
… and that dress!!!
One of the most popular songs of all time.
Our mam bought this in the 70s and as a child I always would play it and I still listen to it today and also love singing it! R.I.P Lynn Anderson ❤
That was back in the time when country stars were huge crossovers. Kids like me who grew up hating country music still knew Lynn Anderson, Dolly Parton, Conway Twitty, Lorertta Lynn, etc. Shows like Hee Haw and the Porter Wagoner show were hard to avoid when your country music loving parents controlled the TV. That was before kids had TVs in their rooms and long before cable. They were all over the radio too, even stations that just played pop and rock would slip in the occasional Charlie Rich or Johnny Cash song among the many other crossover country stars of the day.
You have explained it perfectly. What a trip back in time.
Whoa! You just about described my own childhood perfectly!! My dad was in a country band and played on weekends a lot, so as kids there were lots of get togethers at our house filled with local musicians. Our basement was full of instruments, too. Meanwhile, I couldn't care less about country music, but I sure couldn't escape it. As a kid, I went to concerts with mom and dad, seeing Merle, Buck, Porter, Bill Anderson, and many others. Of course, looking back on it now, I realize it really was extraordinary. But as a kid, I thought nothing about it and didn't appreciate it at all. Wow!
I wish they would react to some Conway Twitty.
Absolutely.
I listened to mom singing this song when I was a child. Mom had 4 kids in 5 years, in the 60s
This was one of my mom’s favorite songs! She would sing it a lot, and I think I have the words burned permanently into my memory!
Such great memories. 50 years later and I know every word. Can’t remember what I did yesterday but these old song I never forget. Thanks for reacting to this.
Wow, that brought back childhood memories. I remember it playing on the radio all the time when I was a little kid 🙂
Again memories of my mom listening to the radio 📻 all the words came rushing back to me and sang right along. Thank-you for sharing the love of music and bringing memories to me. Love you guys ✌🎶🎵💜
I remember singing along to the record and trying to play this on the piano. Love this song.
I love hearing Lynn Anderson i love this song and her other song was top of the world
I saw her and Johnny Cash in concert back when I was a kid in the 70's she was great I never forgot how good they sounded live in concert.
I so remember this song from childhood!
I grew up on this stuff as a kid. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
Oh man! I remember this song when I was 8 in 1971. Country crossed into the pop chart more often in the 70s and this was a big country crossover, for sure
My mother owned this album and it was so good.
I remember this song from when I was a teen back in the early 70s. It was always on the radio. It was a Country Western song, but it was so big, that even the AM Pop Radio stations were playing it. Seriously, after you heard it played so much, you would start quietly singing the words to yourself along with the radio, and then you would say "What am I doing, I don't like Country music? Petty funny, and we all do it.
This was played as much on mainstream top 40 stations as much as country stations. A great song and a great performance by Ms. Anderson.
I am 58 years old and my mom use to sing this song all the time. I love the song as well.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG!!!!! I also believe this was a crossover hit on pop charts.
As a kid, I didn't listen to country stations, only pop. This song was played on pop radio all the time back then. It was a monster hit.
I remember buying this vinyl record when it was released in the U.K. Still have it too! Many years of singing along and I know it word for word. How the years have raced by!
I was a young boy when this song came out! Loved it! So many childhood memories with this song!!!!
I remember seeing Ms. Anderson on TV singing this song. Another great country song is "Harper Valley PTA" by Jeannie C. Riley. It tells a great story.
🥰🥰🥰 My Dad loved old country and this was one song I liked listening to.
Man you went way back!! Lol brings back early memories of my mother singing this around the house. It was a big crossover hit. Charting on both the country and pop charts. Great reaction!!
What comes to mind when all these people start talking about them Is a Merle Haggard's own code mama tried😅😅
Mama Mickey Mickey Gilly who didn't want no room Room Mickey
Is the lighting that sings for Lydia Lydia and the ballam question oh my she's lovely I'll Thanks Oh my❤❤ Eddie antebellum doing American honey would be a good song to do❤
Do you remember the The Is that a Glen Campbell ever dead question
Tanya Tucker it would be tanya's tucker Oh she was lovely I could sing too though❤❤
Tune. Simple, sweet, beautifully sang. Sometimes less is more ❤
Wow, what a childhood memory. My mom used to play this song and seven year-old me used to sing along throughout the House. Great melody, big hit.
You really should check out Alison Krauss. Angelic voice. 'Paper Airplane' and 'When You Say Nothing At All.' She also has fabulous duets with Robert Plant --- 'Gone, Gone,Gone,' 'Can't Let Go,' and 'Killing the Blues.'
I love this song. Still plays on classic country radio today.
Such a classic; I remember listening to my dad's album of this blaring...that's the country seed planted in my little brain...plus she's so beautiful 🤠🥰
I was born & raised a few miles from Times Square, I was not familiar with country music, never heard of Patsy Cline, but this song got on the Pop Charts & I loved it, part of my introduction to country music
Classic song. Originally written by Joe South, and recorded by numerous artists over the years (Billy Joe Royal, Joe South, Dobie Gray, Lynn Anderson, New World, k.d. lang, and Martina McBride), this is one of those songs that everybody knows. There was also a cool 80s song called "I Beg Your Pardon" by Kon Kan that sampled Lynn's version. It's VERY 80s, I think you'd love it!
You should react to the extended version by Kon Kan.
Loooved is still on my drive playlist.
It was recorded by all the other artists, but Lynn Anderson's is the known version. The other artists had little to moderate success with it ... Lynn's was a Mega-Monster hit worldwide.
just wanted to thank you for going on this musical journey you're taking and not holding back from sampling a taste of all the dishes out there, love and prayers for you and your family always.
Lynn Anderson started out on The Lawrence Welk Show. My Dad said that she wouldn't be on there for long and sure enough she went on to be a big star. She was so classy. She was also big in the world of Quarter Horses. Showing and breeding.😊❤
OK. You guys HAVE to listen to Harper Valley PTA by Jeannie C. Riley. It was written by Hall of Fame songwriter Tom T. Hall, and was a massive hit on both the country and the pop charts. There was even a TV movie made about the events in the song in the late 70s. (It's a great story song, which I know you guys love.) Love the reaction. This is one of those songs I remember hearing all my life. Peace!
Yes! Harper Valley PTA
And they need to React to some of Tom's songs... Old Dog, Children, and Watermelon wine
As many other commentors have already said, if you were a child of the 70s and your parents listened to country, this song was heard in your house a lot. This was one of the first songs I can remember hearing, born in 68.
"Wrap Your Love Around Your Man" was another good one from Lynn.Was used in an episode of Starsky and Hutch back in the day.
My Mother's youngest brother.dot.uncle... use to have a Blue Volkswagen Bug with Stereo Speakers all the way in the back where I use to Hang out all cooped up listening to Music and 1 of the Country Artists was Lynn Anderson. Wonderful voice and ❤ those days..🌹🎶🎻📻🔊
This song is like comfort food for the soul for my generation.
Lynn had another career right alongside her country music one. She was an accomplished equestrian rider from childhood on and horse racer who bred Quarter Horses. She won 16 national championships and many other awards. She wrote songs while at events when watching her daughter ride.
A feel good country 😊 always makes me smile and lets me remember those good old times with my family in the province.
OMG I haven't heard this in a very long gig time. THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💙💙💙
Lynn Anderson was first spotted as the country singer on the Lawrence Welk show before this song became a huge hit.
Wow! Brings back lots of memories with my mom always playing music in the house. She loved this song! I have a request for a song. Wasn’t sure where to put it. Ha ha I went to a concert of one of my favorite Country singers, Collin Raye, the other night. You have to listen to She’s With Me. It is a song about his granddaughter who had special-needs and died when she was nine. Also, while you’re at it, he sings another good song called Love, Me. Actually he sings lots of good songs! Ha ha but those two are my favorite personally. He has this wonderful writing ability to have all of his songs come full circle. You really must listen to them!.
Tammy Wynette . She has collection of hits right to her last hit 'Justified & Ancient' she performed with KLF. She started in the sixties. Her main one I remember is 'Stand by your man'.
Brings back memories, my mum had her album. Sunday morning coming down was my favorite from that album
Lynn Anderson Was On The Lawtence Welk Show
Try Lynn Anderson's "Listen To A Country Song"
That Sound Was A Full Orchestra And Was Known As "The Nashville Sound" And Was Prevalent In Country Music In The 1970's
It's interesting that back in the day you could hear Lynn Anderson, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Led Zeppelin and everyone else on the same radio station.
Listen to Donna Fargo, the Happiest Girl in the Whole USA
Probably one of my all time favorite country songs.
I’m SOO old! This was on the radio when I was in my early teens! Loved this! Thanks! Love your channel! Peace and Blessings from Australia.
I have always loved this song, and I still know all the words! Fabulous 👌 ❤ 🎼
This song was released when i was nine im 63 this year and i still love it as much as the first time i heard it.
I love this song and it’s a karaoke fave too. What a voice she has and this is one of her finest.
This crossed over to the pop charts back in the day...
I’m 70s/80s kid, I remember hearing this growing up, my mum playing on a record player.
I’m now running around and helping my mum with her chemo appointments, cancer sucks. We’re reminiscing a lot nowadays, unsure what the future holds for her. She’s 70, battling cancer.
Hope for the best to all out there battling cancer🙏
I remember as a kid listening to this song on the radio. My dad saw her perform live once. She was riding in a rodeo close by where the concert was. Barrel racer, maybe. Anyway, oddly enough the concert was either Dolly and Porter or George and Tammy. Lynn stopped by in her rodeo attire. They brought her out on stage and she sang this song. The band played for her. They weren’t her band, of course. My dad was amazed by that whole thing and talked about it when he got home. From that moment on I loved her cuz she was a cowgirl. (I don’t live in the Midwest. I live in the South. I just watched lots of cowboy shows as a kid. 😁) Anyway, I love this song and I love Lynn.
I love this simple song about love and life as sung by Lynn Anderson. There was another song that I remember around this same time by Donna Fargo, which also sparkled called HAPPIEST GIRL IN THE WHOLE U.S.A. It is light and carefree and just lifts the spirit for a minute in your day.
But with all due respect, none of them can hold a candle to Miss Dolly Parton. Her rendition of the MULESKINNER BLUES is an example of a voice with no equal. I recently saw her blow me away with this performance of the Ken Burns documentary o Country Music. My ears are still ringing. Find the video pf her and her bright yellow dress and press play. Then, hold onto your ears and prepare to be stunned into silence. But most of all, enjoy
Mary Chapin Carpenter, "He thinks he'll keep her", the live version with backup singers Emmylou Harris, Kathy Mattea, Trisha Yearwood, Patty Loveless, Pam Tillis and Suzy Boggus.
Remember my Mother singing this 2 me when I was a child. She said it was amazing living through the 60s for all the great music. My mother would have been 18 in 1970 when this was released. Glad my mother introduced me to so much class.
I love this tune, Amber & Jay!!! Lynn Anderson’s vocals were sampled in a cool top 20 hit from 1988 by Kon Kan called I Beg Your Pardon. Jay, since you weren’t loving Rose Garden like Amber, I strongly recommend you listen to I Beg Your Pardon!
“Look before you leap, still waters run deep… and there won’t always be someone there to pull you out…”. Awesome advice… 👍🏻
Lynn's mom Liz Anderson wrote a couple of my favorite songs. All My Friends are Gonna Be Strangers, Merle Haggard and In the Middle of Nowhere, Charley Pride.
I’ve always loved the bass line on this song. A great country bass line. And a song I really love and have loved since it came out in 1970.
Since you love Mary Chapin Carpenter, I would suggest that you will love Nanci Griffith of Austin, Texas, just as much. My introduction to Nanci was a song called Ford Econoline. I could recommend so many of her songs, but will limit it to Love at the Five and Dime, Late Night Grande Hotel, Once in a Very Blue Moon, and Trouble in the Fields, which is about a farm during the Dustbowl era. She also introduced the song From a Distance, which became a hit for Bette Midler. Nanci was amazing. Once she becomes your friend, she is ever and always your friend.
Ha! That’s my grandfather on bass. 😊
This was one of my Dad's favorite songs. We had this on a 45 & my Dad wore out so many record player needles playing this one over & over. I can't ever hear this without thinking about him. He was a fabulous father & I miss him so, so much.
Hey RS, Love this song herded it a million times but it never gets old big radio hit when I was a little kid once you hear it you’ll never forget it👍
These are the songs I grew up too I remembered all the words I heard it so much, it brings back so many memories good and bad lots of heartbreak and love in these times
This goes back forever. Good song.
Wonderful reactions. I have always liked this song.
My dad was a Hank Williams, George Jones, Merle Haggard, fan. We had a Curtis Mathis stereo. He isolated the bass trak on this once, and ive been a fan ever since. This was the Nashville sound, the very sound that Willie and Waylon rebelled against. Its all good. Its all music. Oh btw,that bas track kicks ass.
An excellent song to sing along to. One of my favorites to crank up in my car.
Canadian synth-pop duo Kon Kan sampled this in 1988 and called it I Beg Your Pardon and even won a Juno award.
When a kid learns a song and their parents make them sing it to everyone they know. I'm that kid. And this was the song.
