*You can support the channel with RUclips Channel Memberships or through Buy Me a Coffee. Never expected, but always appreciated.❤Links in Description!* So INCREDIBLE!! I can't wait to hear more from Loretta Lynn!!
Loretta Lynn wrote her life in her songs. Married at 15 and started having babies right off. She wrote her songs and recorded them, with her husband and kids traveling all over plugging her song to DJs and radio stations.
You need to watch the movie. Its the story of how Loretta got started in her musical career and how her fame shaped her marriage and family life. Sissy Spacek played Loretta in the movie and did an amazing job. Tommy Lee Jones played her husband, Doolittle Lynn in the movie.
Loretta Lynn was a country legend & singer song writer who's music has spanned 6 decades. She was also friends with the great late Patsy Cline. Her younger sister Crystal Gayle also is a great singer. She grew up dirt poor & stayed humble & true to her roots. The autobiographical movie "Coal Miner's Daughter" is worth looking at. Sadly we lost Loretta Lynn in 2022.
"The work we did was hard" "At night, we'd sleep, 'cause we were tard (tired)" honest songwriting, rhyming on accent vs. pronunciation... she is a treasure... and proud of her raisin's...
Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Alison Krauss, Naomi and Wynonna Judd. All of them were the queens of country! Every song they sang was amazing and beautiful. You can't go wrong picking any song from them. Country, with it's influences from Jazz and Blues is the backbone of the classic American music. We wouldn't have rock music without those three components.
Buried mom this past week. 90+ years old. She did school work as a child by coal oil light. She told the story of coming in from the field and finally having an electric light in the home. I miss my momma.
So sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing! 🙏🏻 It’s so wild to think how much she was able to see the world change in her time here on Earth! Sounds like you all had a great relationship and some great memories! ❤️
Love these reactions to classic country. Loretta wrote this song about her actual childhood and family. There's a movie about it by the same name, starring Sissy Spacek as Loretta and Tommy Lee Jones as Loretta's husband. If you want to check out more of her songs (most of which she wrote herself) - "You Ain't Woman Enough (to take my man)" ; "One's on the Way" ; "Don't Come Home a Drinkin'"
My brother was a HUGE fan of Loretta Lynn. A few years before she died she had booked TWO concerts to be held in his town on the same day and he figured since there would be two shows he would be able to get into one of them but he wanted to make sure so he called for the tickets EARLY so they wouldn't be sold out. When he tried to get the tickets he was told that BOTH shows had sold out within a couple of hours of them going up for sale so he missed seeing her. Loretta never tried to be anything other than what she was and that's why people loved her so much. Her death was a huge loss to the world of Country Music.
Lived right around the bend from Butcher Holler. Her sister, Crystal Gayle, sings a song with a line about walking down River Road, I lived on River Road. Our parents wouldn't let us play in the front yard because of all the coal trucks slinging chunks of coal out going down the road.
So excited your doing Loretta Lynn. I knew you'd love her. Next "Fist City" "You ain't woman enough to take my man " "Don't come home drinkin' with lovin' on your mind" "The pill" "Rated X" All of these are great songs! Country Music has so many great singers & songwriters. I heard Loretta had a refrigerator full of songs that she has written & never recorded. I sure do miss Loretta Lynn & will feel the same when the Lord takes Dolly Parton home. Both Loretta & Dolly have been in my life, musically since l was born in 1960. Just like Tammy Wynette. When you finally watch the movie "Coal Miners Daughter" please let us know how you liked it. Most of the movie is true cause Loretta had approval of the script or she wouldn't let them do it. There are many clips(same for Dolly), tv shows, interviews, specials, talk shows of Loretta you can watch on yt. You will love her like we do. Loretta & Conway Twitty were recording a song called, "As soon as l hang up the phone." When it came to the(Conway was talking into the phone)ending of the song, Conway hung up the phone. Loretta came out of the booth & yelled at Conway. She felt he hung up the phone too hard. She told him to never hang up like that on her again!😂😂 They had to do it again. They were great together! If you listen to any of their duets, try to watch them sing live. THANK YOU for doing the great Loretta Lynn. She didn't take anything from anybody, even her husband. If he hit her, she hit him right back. If he cheated on her, she wrote a song about it. She truly loved him. They were married for almost 50 yrs when he passed away. She never remarried. She left us at age 90. So l'm babbling at you again. Have a BLESSED DAY.
Saw her with Conway Twitty in Greensboro SC in 74 with my mom and her friends. Not my style of music but I thoroughly enjoyed it! Some guy yelled out he loved her. She replied I love you too. lol
One night at the mine during dinner break I started singing, "I was born a coal miner's" and then I stopped, not sure I wanted to call myself a daughter. Then another miner sang out "daughter". Then it was on and every miner in the pit joined in to sing the rest of the song. 😀
Loretta, had a great voice, sang song's of life in her time you should listen to her sing a song called "LOVE IS THE FOUNDATION" a absolutely great song, she also has a sister who also sang her name is Crystal Gayle, she also made it Big in country music. Thanks
Loretta a very famous fellow Kentuckian. You mentioned it on your "Never Leave Harlan Alive" Patty Loveless reaction. She's also from Eastern Kentucky.
She sang about real life. My dad’s from where she was and my grandfather was coal miner. He worked the coal mine and tended to his garden too. Coal mining was hard work to provide for your family and then you suffer from black lung until your death. 💗
Try Portland, Oregon from Loretta Lynn and Jack White. A short song about my place of birth. Thank you. I myself am a granddaughter of a coal miner from Arkansas.
I love your Country journey. My favorite is Kenny Rogers. Also love Hank Williams Jr. May I suggest a song by Trace Adkins called, YOU'RE GONNA MISS THIS. I'm new to your channel but I think I know you well enough to know you'll love it! Great voice coupled with great lyrics. Do the official video.
You should see the movie called Coal Miner's Daughter! It's her life story, and you can see just how genuine she was. It's a classic that our whole family loves!
Loretta was a legend. Still is. That’s why her life story was made into a movie called The Coal Miner’s Daughter. She made it through the pressures of life to become a country legend. If you apply pressure to coal you get a diamond. But a black diamond only comes from KISS. Hey! How about more KISS music? No disrespect to Ms. LL. She’s gone but not forgotten. 🎻
Loretta Lynn is one of about 3-4 true authentic original country singers who are women. Authentic, true and realistic. Older country musicians “lived it”. It’s hard to take seriously a supposedly ‘country’ artist who has never even been to the country! You should listen to her song: “You Ain’t Woman Enough, To Take My Man”. It reached No. 2 on the charts and is considered another classic.
I did a quick scan through the existing comments, and couldn't find anyone who even made a guess at where you are from! I THINK you said Kentucky, some months back, but I don't remember for sure. The accent makes me "go there," or possibly to Tennessee. Am I close? My only other guess is that you perhaps live in Pennsylvania, because there is the Seton Hill University there. ??? As for this song, and Loretta Lynn...I LOVE THEM BOTH! You are absolutely right about making the right choices in our lives, no matter about the underlying circumstances. YES!!! Great reaction. 😀
Her sister is singer Crystal Gayle. Loretta had 6 kids. Listen to her sister sing Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue here ruclips.net/video/C9lz_yzrGZw/видео.htmlsi=A0zEJ5qUAjtMJgkz
Great reaction! My guess is that you're from Kentucky. Most Kentuckians will say "App-uh-lay-sha", while most everyone from Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama will say " Appa-latch-uh". You sound more KY or WV. Definitely distinct from a Georgia or Alabama dialect. Just my two cents. I grew up in KY, and currently live in TN, by the way.
One of the best vocalists in Rock doesn’t get the recognition that he deserves. Jimi Jamison has an incredible and instantly recognizable voice. This song from his band at the time Cobra is awesome. The guitarist is amazing also. This song is EXACTLY the story of my life and when I met the lady that I married. Sadly she passed away on August 9, 2024. Shortly after this album came out in 1983, Jimi was hired to replace Dave Bickler in Survivor. They went on to make many huge hits with Jimi. Many consider Jimi Jamison and Steve Perry as the best. Jimi doesn’t get his due. We lost Jimi on September 1, 2014. 😔 “Looking At You” by Cobra with Jimi Jamison ruclips.net/video/OkhbUVUI-LY/видео.htmlsi=TKcrmBXkUfOgBDKG
I would guess you are probably from somewhere in Tennessee maybe. You definitely speak correctly. That’s what I tell. Everybody who thinks that I have a thick country accent. I said no, I’m the one speaking correctly, you are the one who has it wrong. Lol! we end every word that ends with the letters OW with an ER, holler, Winder, feller, pillar, that’s the way you say it dies. And I am proud to be a coal miners daughter as well.
You're in Louisville KY or there about. I think you might have mentioned it a time or two. However, I googled your studio back when I first started following you here because I liked your content and wanted to see what else you might have going on. All your social media that I've found said that was your location as well. So I guess I cheated. 🤣
Patty Loveless was a second cousin to Loretta her father was coal miner in Kentucky, Patty wrote this song 'You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive' After years of mining coal in eastern Kentucky, Patty's father, John Ramey, died from black lung disease in Kentucky just like Loretta's father did! ruclips.net/video/IPhR4c3jwl8/видео.html
Nothing lives here anymore that's the way it is for a lot of places since the 80s and Reagan cause when you are born in the mts its coal mines moonshine or move on down the line
me thinks your from Georgia but pehaps your parents were from the Carolinas or Tennessee or possibly Kentucky? but who knows? certainly not meself. accents are like personalities..... everyone has one.

Ding, ding, ding!! 🛎️
I agree. Watch the movie.
And the great Levon Helm played her dad.

Sadly we lost Loretta Lynn in 2022.
She was and is the REAL DEAL!! The Queen 👑!
Gotta hear Fist City 👊 you will love it!!
This is so country it hurts! No mistaking it for pop music. It's hard to imagine today's world producing women like her, Dolly Parton, or Reba.
She was one tough lady.
"The work we did was hard"
"At night, we'd sleep, 'cause we were tard (tired)"
honest songwriting, rhyming on accent vs. pronunciation... she is a treasure... and proud of her raisin's...

What a movie based on her life!
If you ever watch the movie, the music is actually done by the actresses and they nail it.
Sissy Spacek was Loretta and she won an Academy Award.
You are from Kentucky! You gotta do Fist City!
😂🤣 How did you pin me so fast! Did I say it somewhere?! I’ll have to check that one out! Thanks for hanging!
I think you may have said it once before, I grew up between Lexington & Cincinnati (on I-75). I recginized your dialect, I have it too!
@@l.l4456 Yep we all kind of sound the same! 😂 Have a great day!
One's on the Way describes her life as a young mother before her career started.

I LOVE YOU for seeing the hardworking mama!!!! (Loretta was a kentucky girl ;)
Let’s gooooo! Thanks for watching! 😁

😂🤣 That’s hilarious! Shewee! I always heard mining was an incredibly tough job! Good on you for doing it! Not sure I could handle the tight spaces!
Her movie, Cole Miner's daughter is a great movie if you want to understand Loretta Lynn's life. Some embellishments but for the most part true.
Loretta is certainly a top 10 voice for me! "Fist City" is good, but I love her duet with Conway Twitty "After The Fire is Gone."
Loretta, had a great voice, sang song's of life in her time you should listen to her sing a song called "LOVE IS THE FOUNDATION" a absolutely great song, she also has a sister who also sang her name is Crystal Gayle, she also made it Big in country music. Thanks
One of my mom's favorite singers. Her and Conway Twitty.
Conway ❤
Yep, this is the way many of us grew up. Some had even less.
You have to do the live version of Loretta singing Fist City. She wrote most of her songs like Dolly.
Check out her granddaughter, Emmy Russell singing this in tribute on american idol.
Yes Loretta Lynn sang the song it was written by two of the writers but it does explain her life story!!.,
Your accent sounds *very* familiar! 😉 I'm in Lexington 🐎 now, but grew up about an hour from the WV border.
😁
I'm in Kentucky and it sounds like we may be neighbors! LOL
🤣😂 Let’s gooooo!!
Loretta a very famous fellow Kentuckian. You mentioned it on your "Never Leave Harlan Alive" Patty Loveless reaction. She's also from Eastern Kentucky.

I'm guessing KY or TN, being from KY i can relate to your accent haha.
A true legend Steve. She was fantastic live. A sweetheart of a lady. ❤❤❤❤

I love your Country journey. My favorite is Kenny Rogers. Also love Hank Williams Jr. May I suggest a song by Trace Adkins called, YOU'RE GONNA MISS THIS. I'm new to your channel but I think I know you well enough to know you'll love it! Great voice coupled with great lyrics. Do the official video.
"Fist City", "You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My man", and "The Pill"
The pill got her in trouble with TPTB
Kentucky
☮️💙💙💙🔥🔥😎she was fire!
You should play her sing fist city
I think Mississippi!!! Near to New Orleans ,La..Across the line...
Honky Tonk Girl, One's on the Way and You're lookin' at Country are three more you should check out.
She's from Kentucky.

Crazy good love you
1:20-Will guess Kentucky since it’s one of the largest coal mining states. ❤ your accent!
Her sister is singer Crystal Gayle. Loretta had 6 kids. Listen to her sister sing Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue here ruclips.net/video/C9lz_yzrGZw/видео.htmlsi=A0zEJ5qUAjtMJgkz

North Carolina or Arkansas

A good half of Americans sound like Canadians, but with that accent, you're surely from the US. More specifically, West Virginia?

Well, you pronounce 'coffee' differently, so I would guess a more 'northern' southern state. 😊
