This was so good to hear again. Somehow Randy gets forgotten when I think of my all-time favorite singers, and he is one of the best I have ever heard.
This is one of my favorites from Randy Travis who has to be amongst the greats of country music. anyone who faced addiction will feel every word in this song.. cuts to the bone for me...
@@Sandra-mo8pd As for me as well...don't know your life story but I can tell you're a wise women...and that wisdom gained through fire or through contemplation comes out all the the same. :-)
@@RockN2Country This quote as written has alot of personal meaning to me...the semantics can be disputed, but my life and what I know of Randy's is not a hair splitting dilemma but rather one of revelation.
Randy is one of the best. I think he is over look a little when it comes to the greats. In my opinion he is on the shortlist of greatest. It’s a shame that he can’t perform like he did before the stroke.
Thanks for that reaction! Very cool! It didn't need a lot of instruments because that would have been a distraction to the message he was getting across and grab you as intended. That's what enthralled me to enjoy pure country music.
Huge randy fan form 1986, he was my Elvis in my teen years. But never could get into this one. Even when I heard it on his rare 1983 live album before we redid it. You could do a whole video reaction to his album storms of life. I would say it’s top 5 best country album ever
Seems like you missed the point alittle but, might get it now. This is a song about sex addiction, not just being unfaithful. Being married to a sex addict (now divorced), it was so hard to understand what and why he did the stuff that he did. This song explain how difficult it was for my ex because he wanted to stop. He promised to stop. He just couldn’t stop. And there wasn’t enough marriage counseling to keep us together. 💕 luckily I am remarried (going on 13 years now) to an amazing man. I don’t cry anymore. Sex addiction is a very difficult (and taboo) subject to talk about, so we keep everything internalized.
Being the one who walks away isn't easy either. I waited for a man to come home time after time. He was a wonderful person full of fun and and adventure and love, but he had a gypsy soul and was utterly unreliable. I so wanted to just stay there, waiting, welcoming him when he was there and missing him when he wasn't. But what was the point? Ah well. We all have scars that never really heal. I just drink a little toast to him now and then and pray he's warm and safe.
I'm new to your Channel today Don. I like what you are doing! I would love to see you react to Dottie West "Put You Back on the Rack " or "Lesson in Leaving " or Wynonna Judd.
I don't know how to go about bringing this up, but I've been scrolling by your thumbnails recently, and I can't help but wonder if your cowboy hat is in backwards. 😅
@Sandra Oh yes, I did that one two years ago. Use the search feature on the channel and type “Randy”-all the songs I’ve done by Randy will pop up for you.
Man I see a lot of regret in your reaction. I think all of us have had it to an extent. Many of the newcomers to country seem to talk about the emotion that it invokes, usually happiness or fond remembrance, but a song arranged like this, sung by a voice like that, covering what it does...it’s one of the tougher songs to get through if you’ve been in that spot, on either side, but it’s still a great song.

@David Emswiler Unless, of course, the commitment starts with a promise, and is kept.
This hits home for me.

@@davidemswiler4351 I am fine now. But it was a hard time. I am nice to everyone. And that is how I expect to be treated.

He's in the Country Music Hall of Fame on Oct. 16, 2016, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

You can’t go wrong with a Randy song
Huge randy fan form 1986, he was my Elvis in my teen years. But never could get into this one. Even when I heard it on his rare 1983 live album before we redid it.

One of the greatest break up songs ever written. Randy did a duet of this with Shelby Lynne you should check out
Amazing song 🎶 ❤you are a wonderful person love your sining always ❤
This is my favorite songs of Randy's. It is so simple.
Make it, make the list

Would like to see you react to Alan Jackson "MONDAY MORNING CHURCH"

@Andrew Merrick Thank you for the kind words and encouragement, and welcome aboard the channel!!
I had forgotten this song until he started singing. It's on one of my Randy cassettes. It's beautiful but was not a favorite.
Great song. Thanks for this one. Here’s another, not so sad, Before You Kill Us All.
Like with a lot of other musicians ; Randy has a song for just about any thing you may want to hear about.
Check out this one. " Every time You Go Outside I Hope It Rains " by the Burch Sisters. Listen to the harmonies.

@Guts No sir, I've got it on correctly. But seeing that I'm new to hats like this, it might take a while before I look adjusted to it. :-)
You should listen to On the other hand
@Sandra Oh yes, I did that one two years ago. Use the search feature on the channel and type “Randy”-all the songs I’ve done by Randy will pop up for you.
You need to do every Randy song that would be great if you could

Have you done any bluegrass reactions? A good one would be The Mountain by Steve Earle and the Del McCoury Band
Please please please check out a song called “Chiseled In Stone” by Vern Gosdin ☮️❤️👵🏼
@Sharon Pate I did that one about two years ago and it was beautiful!
