I know... he's a goof! He likes to poke fun all the way a round! Some further down are offended, but if they really paid attention, the appparent real natives on the grounds look natural and unaffected by the skit. He just blows silliness out of proportion, that is his gift. If people wanted to see how, when he is serious, he feels about all people, they should watch the video: "Everything is Beautiful"... where he honors and respects people of all colors and nations. It is really from his heart. Everyone in the world should watch it and come back to thier senses.....
I was born and lived in Calcutta till I was eight as were so many famous pop and films stars were born in India. This is hilarious. The social clubs there have some of the most amazing singers and musicians. I live in England now.
@Debbie Reeves It's on DVD at Ray's website in his store. You'll find that DVD plus DVD's of his PBS television show, "CabaRay Nashville" and other things. shop.raystevens.com/dvds
I remember this as a kid...it was like smoking a big fatty; kind of wish I had seen it at this age so I could smoke and laugh my ass off. When i hear this towns name I get the song stuck in my head for days...thanks ray for sharing your soul with us...music/singing/dancing is the universal language
mybluebelly Yep. He's actually mostly known for his music though. This was a direct-to-video release he did in the mid-90s and isn't all that well-known.
First time hearing this....classic Ray Stevens satirical attitude. He's a pistol. And the thought police allowed this-gasp! Sometimes,you just have to have a little fun by poking some fun. He& George Carlin were more "woke" than the little snowflakes today. RIP George. Keep it up Ray!
As a native I wanna be angry with him. But I can't. Its like being angry with a child for being short. He can't help himself. Bless his heart, he's just built that way. LOL
@Redrum Ray poked fun at all types of people at times, even & especially himself. If you've ever seen his video: "Everything is Beautiful", you would see how he really feels from his heart about all people when serious. Watch it and listen carefully to the words, he honors and respects all colors and nations of people.....
If I remember correctly he's the executive that Ray has to sign a contract with in the movie. He falls asleep trying to make a decision of what to do and this is his dream
2019 Rules forever I'm Ray Steven s and all the singers they play on Kbek forever promise to god. Steve Fikes Jim nabors and all the singers they play on Kool 108 forever promise to god. On gomer pyle Steve fikes gomer pyle I'm Sargent Carter. Gomer pyle sucks 👎 forever. Ray Steven s better actor and singer than Jim nabors I would reather watch the jejfferson s on the Jefferson s I'm Paul Benadict Bentley Jen's Mrs Bentley Wade's George Jefferson Stephanie s Mrs Jefferson Charlie woods Lionel Eve's Mrs lioneil Jerry's tom Missy's Helen.
Timoteo Saldana Honesto This is just the tip of the iceberg. Just look at Hollywood's portrayal of Native America since they produced their first movie. Native Peoples were always put in such a savage light. Soon Hollywood directors could find no Native to fill the roles and began using Whites and Hispanics to fill the "Tribes". I like Ray Stevens (a little) but I am disgusted by this. To me, it is more offensive than and football team mascot.
Timoteo Saldana Honesto I so loathe this google setup. Just lost my huge exhortation on my personal discovery that what public schools teach about Native America is well beyond lacking and only preaches about wars between the Native Peoples and the Americans. It was the Boy Scouts of America that opened my eyes to the reality that American children are being taught nothing about the Native Peoples of this land. There is more emphasis on Slavery and Black History than there is Native America. Now, they are altering it again to reflect mostly Spanish narrative which furthers the derision of Native America. I later find out that my maternal Grandmother's Grandmother was full blooded Native, most likely Choctaw. Family research only has her as Native but no Tribe. This furthered my need to discover more about Native Peoples and the thin connection that I have with them. We have to stand up to these School Boards and demand that they address the grievances of the lack of Native American history, culture, and heritage. There is more to the Native Peoples than just Army Scouts and Indian Wars.

Me to
'I might be the only real Indian here'
'When I would jump out of the plane I would yell, "Me!"' 😆
How old is this song today was my first time hearing it and I absolutely love it.
Ray recorded it in 1989 but this music video is from Ray's movie, "Get Serious!", released on VHS in 1995. It's on DVD also.
@Debbie Reeves It's on DVD at Ray's website in his store. You'll find that DVD plus DVD's of his PBS television show, "CabaRay Nashville" and other things. shop.raystevens.com/dvds

Yes, that's our Ray! 😻
Is this guy some sort of american comedy icon or what? He seems a good family laugh.
mybluebelly Yep. He's actually mostly known for his music though. This was a direct-to-video release he did in the mid-90s and isn't all that well-known.

Racism is in your heart and mind. You have to overlook your personal thoughts, bred by the media you listen too.

Is this the equivalent of Red Face? Seems a might bit on the offensive side.
I am wondering that myself. I never recalled seeing this. But this part might be.

I agree and I used to enjoy his comedy. I asked some friends on Twitter and they are in agreement.

Totally Agree!
