I’m nearing the end of my life and every time I listen to this song I’m reminded of my youth. Mom and dad were alive and my brothers and sister were living at home. I feel like I was born at the right time. To the future I say this. “ Enjoy the music my generation left you”.
I am 83 and retired 20 ago after several million miles as a trucker music was my favorite , raised in Detroit by a country couple from KY I still fell in love with motown an rock & roll and country music , Glen Campbell was the best of the best he could make a great singer and one of the best musicians, he played back up for so many groups.
This is an understatement (forgive me), but Glen Campbell was an outrageously talented musician. Not only on guitar, but the tone of his voice. What a talent. Rest in peace Glen.
Good God Glenn What a song, I'm 71 years old and never get tired of listening to Glenn sing this song. God bless you Gleand God bless us all. Fred Rodriguez 2023
I'm 70 years old and my generation Knew how to make music. I'm proud of my generation. I lived the best days. I was born at the right time. The generation now they have nothing. There's nothing to remember and kids being born. Today are born into nothing but problems.
Noreason to be afraid of dying.. Just remember it's not what you leave behind. It's just everything you leave behind and your kids and everything. You know, my Grandpa always told me if you're gonna do something do, right? Don't leave a stain, leave a legacy
This is the America that I love, that I admired during my college years in the 70s. But that America has changed. Glen Campbell was the symbol of the good things that America gave to the world. I wish those days would come back one day. RIP Glen, your music is immortal.
Yes American has changed. During the mid 70s 1973-1977 I was in the United States Marine Corps. I've been around the world. But I always thought of my little hometown of Charleston, West Virginia. My late Dad was big Glenn Campbell fan. We never missed Glenn's weekly TV show Glenn.
Reminds me of my youth. Living room stereo, mom and dad, roaring fireplace, dark winters night. A happier time for me. I had some difficult days in the times of my life, we all have, yes.
Thirty years ago. I took a small jet to turn myself in at Allenwood Federal Prison Camp to do some time. I used to listen to this song because I had left without saying goodbye to anyone. We had a lake, a bocce court and gym, no fences and an old abandoned church with cemetery we could use. I became successful after I got out and now I'm retired. Songs like these make you travel back in time.
In 1964 they put a radio tower across the highway from our family's farm. I was 7. My parents gave me this little diode radio that u put together. It had a single ear phone and I started listening at nite ,laying in my bed .staring out the window at the bllinking red lite at the top of the tower .
I saw Glen in concert at a casino showroom, maybe late 70’s or early 80’s and he was tossing out a few signed frisbees; I didn’t catch one but wanted it so badly, I offered $100 to someone who caught one . To this day, my husband mocks me for it but I still have the frisbee!
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel, better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will put a smile on your face..
I was just 17 when By the Time I Get to Phoenix came out!! Of course I was a huge Beatles etc fan ...but hearing Glen Campbell for the first time, I just fell in love with his voice and songs. Listening to these brings back many memories. Now I am way older and still love listening to this amazing talent!! Glen Campbell you were just amazing and I loved you !!
I remember having my transitor radio on listening to this on my first day of Jr. High!🤩. So grateful to have grown up with the BEST MUSIC of any generation! We had it all - hard rock, folk music, pop & jazz. ✌🏽😎
I love that Jimmy Webb wrote the first two verses of "Wichita Lineman," and Glen and his band just went into the studio and recorded the incomplete song as-is. Jimmy was stunned when Glen told him, "oh, yeah, we finished that recording" while Jimmy was still working on a bridge and third verse.
@@jeffreyleohner3247when you combine his vocal and guitar ability he is one of the greatest performers and musicians of all time. You could argue that he is the greatest and you would not have a weak argument
For me, growing up listening to various rock groups, Glen Campbell was not cool. Hearing him now, I realize he was one of the best song writers ever, AND a phenomenal guitar player.
I did grow up to rock too, but I remember this was played when I was a kid, and I certainly thought back then it was beautiful and I still freaking do. And I also loved Rhinestone Cowboy by him and Southern Nights. So, yes he was no rock, but he was cool. Way cool
Have such wonderful memories of listening to Glen Campbell, one of my mom's favorites. The the end of her life, she had Alzheimer's but she could since every word of those songs we listened to so many times. Thank you, Glen Campbell, and Jimmy Webb, for this song and so many memorable songs from "back in the day"! Great memories for me of my mom and good times! Miss you, mom! 💞
Again, I have to confess that I was too stupid in the 60's and 70's to appreciate Glen Campbell. I grew up with siblings born from '48 to '53, but I was born much later. I wish that I'd had the musical maturity to know that Glen Campbell was a genius on the guitar with an exceptional voice and the man he gave to us all. God bless him , his family and all of us that love his memory and the talent that he's passed to his progeny...
God this man and his music takes me back. Such a loss to the USA and the world with his passing. Still love listening to his music legacy. Pure Americana.
A while ago I was playing golf at Arizona Country Club. We had a foursome and there was this twosome waiting behind us. It was Glen Campbell and the local pro. Glen was a total gentleman.
I went to nursing school in Galveston in the early 70's. Every juke box in town had the song. Glen did a lot for Galveston with the song. It takes me back....to some of the most wonderful tines of my life. Young love, growing up, beginning to understand life.
My favorite song by Glenn Campbell is "By The Time I Get To Phoenix". He makes my skin crawl when I hear him sing it. He has a certain cry in his voice that sends chills to every fiber of your body. You're the best Mr. Campbell, I love you...❤
"Galveston" brings back memories of when I first moved to Tallahassee. And immediately had to come back to Jacksonville twice, for draft physicals as the Viet Nam War raged. And how much my older brother was the wind beneath my wings as I attended Florida State University and worked in his music store and recording studio. Even with the bad times, those were the great times. Thank the Lord.
I was fortunate to attend a tribute concert by Jimmy Webb, before Glen passed away. Jimmy told stories of how he first met Glen, and how they became such close friends afterwards. Jimmy is a very talented singer-songwriter.
I love listening to Glen. I always smile when I hear him sing but there is always a little sadness because he is gone now. Such a bad end for a great talent. I MISS HIM.
I've just heard the most uplifting story when Glen came to my home town of Halifax, England in the 1980s Glen enjoyed his time in Halifax having the chraic with the locals before his sell out concerts. He frequented the pub the Plummet Line on a few occasions enjoying the local ales. So much so that the lass working behind the bar cooked him apple pie of which he looked forward to on his return, on his request. (Halifax Courier have an excellent article) I personally had to see Glen and did so in Manchester on his last tour of the UK. Boy, that was some emotional concert. God bless you Glen. X
Otherwordly music written by Jimmy Webb and sang by Glen. This song meant much to me when it first came out. I cried every time I heard it, it was so relatable to me. My boyfriend left me, and I was devastated..............but in time he came back. And married me. I love happy endings.
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel, better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will put a smile on your face..
I know I was an exception. When I was in the Marines, when everyone else kept pictures of family and current pictures of early '70's rock and roll stars in their rooms, I had a picture of Glen Campbell. I used to dream of being like the "Rhinestone Cowboy". Unfortunately, reality set in and the dreams were all that were left. Thank you, Glen, for my dreams. RIP.
"Time and time I tried to tell her so, she just didn't know I would really go." Such a simple phrase says so much. This song always pulls me back to a time so young, first love, arguing, making up over and over. I finally left and didn't come back, eventually hitchhiking across the country. The words really say how I felt better than I ever could.
I don’t think a lot of people realized how much of a badass Glen was at the guitar. He could shred with the best of them with ease. I love you Glen. Rip my childhood crush. ❤
Growing up in the Philippines, I first heard of Glen from his hit song Rhinestone Cowboy. From there I found out more about his other songs and great guitar talent. So sad watching the documentary about his life fighting the disease that took his life. Rest easy, Mr. Campbell!🙏
The years are rushing by in my declining years. But I remember Glen Campbell's music and particularly By The Time I Get To Phoenix. My late father always played it late at night after I left home to start my own life. RIP dad and Glen, I wish I could turn back the years and spend more time with my dad.

I found an old friend tonight. How I’ve missed Glen Campbell’s music. Haven’t listened to these songs in maybe thirty-forty years. ❤️❤️❤️
Good God Glenn
What a song, I'm 71 years old and never get tired of listening to Glenn sing this song. God bless you Gleand God bless us all. Fred Rodriguez 2023
Beautiful and touching song
@@johnmumba4085 By the time I get to Phoenix, I found out that the Jets fans outnumber the Coyotes fans when I watch a hockey game there!
I'm from England, last few years, into Glenn Campbell, what have I been missing all these years
.brilliant
I'm 70 years old and my generation Knew how to make music. I'm proud of my generation. I lived the best days. I was born at the right time. The generation now they have nothing. There's nothing to remember and kids being born. Today are born into nothing but problems.
I miss him...."I'm so afraid of dying" I hope someone misses me when I go.
Someone will miss you,,xx
There's a whole new world the other side
Noreason to be afraid of dying.. Just remember it's not what you leave behind. It's just everything you leave behind and your kids and everything. You know, my Grandpa always told me if you're gonna do something do, right? Don't leave a stain, leave a legacy
I hope your still with us Paul
Get yourself saved and watch that fear fade away
This is the America that I love, that I admired during my college years in the 70s. But that America has changed. Glen Campbell was the symbol of the good things that America gave to the world. I wish those days would come back one day. RIP Glen, your music is immortal.
God bless you my friend. I am from the UK and can totally empathise
VERY WELL SAID SIR
Yes American has changed. During the mid 70s 1973-1977 I was in the United States Marine Corps. I've been around the world. But I always thought of my little hometown of Charleston, West Virginia. My late Dad was big Glenn Campbell fan. We never missed Glenn's weekly TV show Glenn.
very well said sir. There is still greatness in the United States of America reflected in people like yourself and Glen Campbell etc. God bless!
I feel the same. I was in the U.S. in the 70's.
Timeless music. The world is missing a classic vocalist. His music takes me back to my childhood days. RIP Glen.
You can only say one thing about Glen Campbell. The Best.
Reminds me of my youth. Living room stereo, mom and dad, roaring fireplace, dark winters night. A happier time for me. I had some difficult days in the times of my life, we all have, yes.

What a great story. You made my evening. Thank you 🌈🙏🏼 I was very down but that helped
For what
Absolutely awesome, Glen Campbell great voice , great guitar playing . Fantastic artist 🎉👌🌟

Glad you got your life straightened out. God bless you
God given talent, anybody agree?
You are missed Glenn. Your music touches my heart and soul...
Never get old
I remember laying on the living room floor of my grandmas house listening to this on the record player
What a Super Talented Beautiful Human Being Glen Campbell
The Orchestra is Absolutely Magical
Very privileged, with both 1960s to now.
God bless ❤
Glen Campbell... One of the most underrated musicians of all time. Talent supreme.
There will never be another glen Campbell he was a genius who died to soon rip ❤
Gives you Goosebumps. !
I give Glen a lot of credit,..he sounds better than he ever has..some people are just timeless. Michael.
Aww i love this so much and reminds me of family happiness in my home Dundee, Scotland ❤❤❤
I feel part of my dad listening 🎶 remember him singing .all Glen Campbell. He had great voice .I miss my dad every day ❤
God's peace to you.

Such sadness and loneliness in a few lines. Jimmy Webb is an amazing storyteller
agree, spot on
mr. webb was a genius
I love that Jimmy Webb wrote the first two verses of "Wichita Lineman," and Glen and his band just went into the studio and recorded the incomplete song as-is. Jimmy was stunned when Glen told him, "oh, yeah, we finished that recording" while Jimmy was still working on a bridge and third verse.
I’m pretty sure Glen Campbell is the reason I’m a hopeless romantic today.
one of the very best guitar players of all time
Absolutely! No doubt about it! Sung well, but one of the top guitarists of all time!
@@jeffreyleohner3247 Eddie Van Halen would have absolutely agreed with that.
@@jeffreyleohner3247when you combine his vocal and guitar ability he is one of the greatest performers and musicians of all time. You could argue that he is the greatest and you would not have a weak argument
Back when life was so easy……I was about 12-13…such a happy time to be alive
Me too
❤ can relate 😊
This is how country music should be. Thank you G. Campbell
For me, growing up listening to various rock groups, Glen Campbell was not cool. Hearing him now, I realize he was one of the best song writers ever, AND a phenomenal guitar player.
Along with some many other classic Campbell songs like Wichita lineman.
@@davidkopel5841 Right. Glen just had a way of making these songs his own. Quite a talent.
I did grow up to rock too, but I remember this was played when I was a kid, and I certainly thought back then it was beautiful and I still freaking do. And I also loved Rhinestone Cowboy by him and Southern Nights. So, yes he was no rock, but he was cool. Way cool
He was good friends with Alice Cooper. They golfed together.
@@Uns_Maps_8 he was a total rocker when young.

There is no music like this as anymore 😢
Hey how are you doing today?
God broke the mold with this incredible man.
Back in the day I was so in love with Glen Campbell. He touched my soul with his music. Rest in peace Glen.
How are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
He was my only crush too.
The most amazing man ever. His music touched my soul.
Absolutely!
2023 i am still listening...one of the best version....
Good music made by a talented musician. But not the most amazing ever. Jesus Christ already has that title.
😂😅😅😅😅. ❤
He was an amazing storyteller, and a legendary player! His music indeed touched a lot of souls, including mine.
I cry when I hear these songs. I get very emotional when I listen to Glen Campbell.
What do you admire most about Glen
Affects me the same way
I'm 62 and I feel the same
Glen and Jimmy Webb , what a combination !
A Sad Song beautifully sung by the Master. 😢😅
Have such wonderful memories of listening to Glen Campbell, one of my mom's favorites. The the end of her life, she had Alzheimer's but she could since every word of those songs we listened to so many times.

Just unbelievable, one of the greatest talents and guitar player of all time. No doubt !!!

Classic Glen Campbell 😊 great entertainer rip 🩷💕
Thank you Glenn Campbell.
I originally left a nice comment about this artist....
This comment belongs to the special people.....
You need a different planet all to yourselves ❤
King of melancholy. Takes me back to my childhood hearing his songs on a car AM radio. Always remembered every lyric so I could sing it to myself.
A while ago I was playing golf at Arizona Country Club. We had a foursome and there was this twosome waiting behind us. It was Glen Campbell and the local pro. Glen was a total gentleman.
Hey how are you doing?
RIP Glen Campbell....such a great performer🎸🎶🌟
Glenn was the gift to music and people , thank you .
Yes he was and you're very welcome, i'm glad you enjoyed.

Overdose on talent. One of a kind. Loved his music
This man was genius
Great work Mr.Campbell,you left a mark.
he was one of a kind. RIP
He was so honnest and maybe one of the best guitar players ever !
Such a sad song . But sang to perfection
My favorite song by Glenn Campbell is "By The Time I Get To Phoenix". He makes my skin crawl when I hear him sing it. He has a certain cry in his voice that sends chills to every fiber of your body. You're the best Mr. Campbell, I love you...❤
That’s a beautiful song. Wichita lineman is a favorite of mine
Grew up with this talent. Oh how he enriched so many lives!! Love you Glenn!! 👍👍❤️
What an unbelievable talent. Music flow from him effortlessly. All I can say is wow. RIP Glenn
"Galveston" brings back memories of when I first moved to Tallahassee. And immediately had to come back to Jacksonville twice, for draft physicals as the Viet Nam War raged. And how much my older brother was the wind beneath my wings as I attended Florida State University and worked in his music store and recording studio. Even with the bad times, those were the great times. Thank the Lord.
Thank you Glen Campbell for your musics . R.I.P. .
I would sit in the living room in the middle of the night when everybody's already asleep and listen to glen on the stereo... So relaxing and calm
I can totally relate to that. I used to do the same except for me it was Jim Croche.
Please forgive me for spelling his name wrong.
Doing that now .. nobody to touch him ❤️😊
Me too. But I'm embracing it. My life sucks. Music kept me going. God bless everyone
Count your blessings, name them one by one.
So many emotions when I listen to this Song and what memories thank you Glen .
Never tire of listening to his singing . Brings back memories of my youth . He sang so many good songs .
We have lost a lot of great entertainers but we are so lucky to still have their music which they left for the World to still enjoy. RIP❤
This was.my mothers favorite singer, many years ago, ❤ I love this song too
I still love this song Love Glen Campbell.
I was fortunate to attend a tribute concert by Jimmy Webb, before Glen passed away. Jimmy told stories of how he first met Glen, and how they became such close friends afterwards. Jimmy is a very talented singer-songwriter.

I've just heard the most uplifting story when Glen came to my home town of Halifax, England in the 1980s
Glen enjoyed his time in Halifax having the chraic with the locals before his sell out concerts.
He frequented the pub the Plummet Line on a few occasions enjoying the local ales.
So much so that the lass working behind the bar cooked him apple pie of which he looked forward to on his return, on his request. (Halifax Courier have an excellent article)
I personally had to see Glen and did so in Manchester on his last tour of the UK.
Boy, that was some emotional concert.
God bless you Glen. X
What an amazing story, I am from Meltham and worked in Halifax in the late 70's early 80's that is one hell of a memory you have.
simply one of the best records of all time - glen nails it
Grew up listening to Glen's fab music and it is still brilliant today. RIP Glen.
Yet another Glen Campbell classic. Thanks so much, Glen.
Jimmy Webb is a song writing genius. He could write a song covering the whole of a Shakespeare play and fit the lyrics on the back of a postcard.
Otherwordly music written by Jimmy Webb and sang by Glen. This song meant much to me when it first came out. I cried every time I heard it, it was so relatable to me. My boyfriend left me, and I was devastated..............but in time he came back. And married me. I love happy endings.
And he's been miserable ever since.Am i right? I'm teasing you. :)
@@dr.phantom5147 Of course! It's a woman's role to make men miserable.

The years are rushing by in my declining years.
But I remember Glen Campbell's music and particularly By The Time I Get To Phoenix.
My late father always played it late at night after I left home to start my own life.
