- Country singer and actor Mickey Gilley, known for launching the Urban Cowboy movement in Country music and hit songs including "Stand By Me," "Room Full of Roses" and "Lonely Nights," died Saturday in Branson, Missouri.
Gilley was 86 and had just come off of the road, his favorite place, having played ten shows in April. He passed peacefully with his family and close friends by his side.
Gilley, a native of Natchez, Mississippi, influenced generations of country singers for decades with his signature, haunting combination of Louisiana rhythm and blues and country-pop crossover melodies. He grew up with his two famous cousins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Jimmy Swaggart, surrounded by the influence of music and earned 39 Top 10 hits and 17 No. 1 songs throughout his career.
In 1971, Gilley opened his world-famous honky-tonk Gilley's in Pasadena, Texas, which sparked a chain of the famous nightclubs.
The son of Arthur Fillmore Gilley and Irene (Lewis) Gilley, Gilley learned how to play piano from Lewis and dabbled in boogie-woogie and gospel music early in his career before finding his professional footing in the '70s with "Room Full of Roses." Hits "Chains of Love," "Honky Tonk Memories," "She's Pulling Me Back Again," and "Here Comes the Hurt Again" followed as his honky-tonk gave way to the more progressive countrypolitan.
In 1980, Gilley splashed into pop culture when he appeared in the smash hit movie "Urban Cowboy" alongside John Travolta, Debra Winger and Johnny Lee. Gilley's served as the backdrop for the film, which helped launch his acting career and put his music career on a whole new level. Gilley went on to star in popular television series including "Murder She Wrote," "The Fall Guy," "Fantasy Island" and "Dukes of Hazzard."
Gilley was widely recognized for his work in music and movies, earning numerous accolades, including six Academy of Country Music Awards, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was inducted into the Texas Country Music Hall of Fame in 2011. He was one of only a handful of artists to receive the Academy of Country Music's Triple Crown Awards.
Gilley was preceded in death by his wife, Vivian. He is survived by his wife Cindy Loeb Gilley, his children Kathy, Michael, Gregory and Keith Ray, four grandchildren and nine great grandchildren and his cousins Jerry Lee Lewis and Jimmy Swaggart.

Glad to know, he'll be playing piano in Heaven.
Really. Thanks so much. ❤😊
My dad introduced me to Jerry and Mickeys music when I was a kid. Still listening to their music today.
Fantastic this video is. Love these old songs and lyrics. ❤😊
I went to Gilley's once for a George Jones concert. I got there quite early and ordered lunch. It was a huge place. Later the ticket crews came to set up tables. I tried three times to buy a ticket and was turned down. I was in the building already so I saw the show for free!
Love mickeys music.❤
Love listening to his singing & piano playing & will continue to do so. R.I.P. Mickey Gilley.
What a loss,his music will continue to be played till the end of time. Heaven will be sounding sweeter since Mickey has arrived, well done RIP
Country Legend . Texas Proud !!
I like to watch him play the piano.....incredibly talented!
Mickey was terrific playing the piano and great singer!
I loved Jerry Lee. I was in love with Mikey and Jimmy well… he goes without saying. God bless them all.❤️🙏
RIP Mickey Gilley.
I'm so sorry! 😢🙏💔
Love You're music! Thank you so much! ⚘️
Thank God he was saved! That’s all that matters and the most important decision anybody will ever make ! Glad I made it to!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👍👍👍
Pamela Ruth Lee. I'm a fan. Love the song I overlooked an orchid. Rip.❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
Yeah, if he just chose to be a good person and follow Jesus and His teachings, but not be "saved" according to what Man told some what God was about, God would be happy to allow the devil to torture him for all eternity. Damn, what a great guy God is! (Except God isn't really like what you think he is, God would never allow a good person to be tortured for all eternity) I'm so sorry you are so bound by man's lies that you allow yourself to be tortured by Man's version of God instead of living with and for Him. But I'm sure you do follow Jesus and live for God, despite your beliefs that man has put into you about some craziness about Him.
Thank God for except the almighty

RIP Mickey. We will miss you.
I wish we could have met Mickey Gilley. We love to hear him play the Piano and sing.
My father and I owned the Shell station close to Gilly's club. He and his family traded with us.
A little history, he began working construction. On one occasion, Jerry Lee was performing in Houston and with Mickey being his cousin, he picked him up when he arrived. Mickey said he saw a was of cash Jerry Lee had and asked where he got that much cash. "Making music" Jerry replies. It was then Mickey decided to try making music. He was playing nights and weekends while still doing construction. Pushing the limits, he showed up at work late one morning and the foreman fired him. Mickey just said, "Good, now I can just make music."
While Mickey's name was on the club, it did not belong to him. The man that recognized Mickey's talent was named Sherwood Cryer. Seeing the potential in Mickey, he signed him under a long-term contract. Mickey realized later that Sherwood had taken advantage of his youth and inexperience and began to resent it. As soon as the contract ended Mickey left Sherwood and the club was closed.
Funniest thing that happened occured when Urban Cowboy was being filmed. One day, a limo pulled into our station and Mickey got out. He saw my dad and I standing there and he called out to my dad. " Hey Glenn, I have someone for you to meet." As my dad was walking his way, the back window on the limo was rolling down. When my dad asked who, Mickey said, "John Travolta," to which my dad replied, " I couldn't care less about John Travolta!" Immediately the window started back up.
Mickey was just an ordinary guy and a great entertainer
You know why too. Tru.
Mickey is a nice musician with charm. ⭐🇺🇲🎹🎤⭐

The first time I listened to Mickey was when Clifton, my brother, gave me one of his albums.
Wherever you are, Clifton, I am thinking of you. Missing you.
So handsome. I saw him in Branson about 13 years go. Room Full of Roses was his first #1 song back in 1974.

Mickey was too long seen as "low key". I'm so glad he is getting the attention he deserves!!!
Love Mickey’s music. 🎶 he gives a fantastic show 👍
Jimmy, Jerry, and Micky could all tickle the ivories like no one else. Mickey was my favorite, I prefered his style music although they all were very talented with different music types rock, country, and religious.
One of the best of all time

He will be greatly missed I always thought it was really neat the way Mickey Gilley Jimmy Swaggart and Jerry Lee Lewis all play the piano and were great at it and all went into different genres of music. Now he can join the other country musicians and singers in heaven and sing and play unceasingly for our Lord
The three of them were cousins... 😊😊

Great singer. His cousins seemed to be more about showmanship and ego but Mickey was a gifted entertainer and that spoke for itself.
Wish I had seen him perform. He sure could make that piano rock!!!!
This is a great video. ❤😊
My favvv Bring it on home to me whuaww !!!!
I miss u so much Mickey
Have you folks noticed that all 3 cousins pedal with the left foot instead of the right!;-)? Maybe it's because back in the day when singing and playing you had a microphone on a stand on the inside of your right leg? Can't think of any other reason why they would do it this way. Thoughts?
Love this one always. Thanks m to

Man wish I could find his old song “gods country” but I can’t find it anywhere !
Mickey Gilley is way better than his two cousins, without a doubt. He has touched my life in a very good way.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I guess they would after enough Alcholic Beverage. Tru. Thanks so cute
Ok, just come over to talk. So do I too. Oh, sounds wonderful. You are such a gentleman you are to me. I understand this too
tv
Martha you’re joking right? MG and JLL are legends and true innovators. Swaggart was a grifter and con artist and should not be mentioned in the same breath as those two underrated musicians.
Amazing that Jimmy Has made more albums than the 2 cousins. Called of God no matter if you love him or hate him. The talents of the 3 will live on forever. Now Jimmy is the last man standing. God is not finished with him yet. God luv his heart.
When did he pass away. Anyone please let me know.
One of the best . Never got enough credit . His songs will never die.
I agree, he is so talented, these three cousins were sure.y gifted from God
Mickey GILLEY,JERRY LEE LEWIS ,JIMMY Swaggert,WERE ALL FIRST COUSINS ! EVERYONE OF THEM WERE FANTASTIC PIANO PLAYERS!!! ❤❤❤
Each had similiar left hand style..........
Mickey sure owned those keys! He was so super good.
