The look on your face was priceless when you realized that he had passed away. Almost anything from George Jones is golden.
The first line gives it away..." He said I'll love you till I die". No matter what happens after that he kept his word. In the end it's about true love, even if it might be one sided.
1980 hit… he won a Grammy 2 years in a row for the same song… He is an iconic country legend
The best country song ever!
Yes I agree that it is one of the best country songs ever wrote and song of one of my favorites Mr Jones
Its been said that when George Jones sings, the audience cries, I cry and the house starts leaking. Waylon Jennings said "If we all could sing like we wanted, we'd all sound like George Jones". I agree. Great reaction.
George released this song in 1980 - was a monster hit for him late in his life. To everyone's surprise he released a song in 1985 called Whose gonna fill their shoes. Seeing how country music had moved almost completely out of the traditional realm - the song hit home. You still had those greats like George Strait and Alan Jackson who kept true to the traditional country sound - and as you see they have lasted many many years. Another great reaction. Thanks!
This is arguably the best song ever written.
George and Tammy were married at one time. George didn't want to record this song. He said this is the saddest damn song I ever heard. No one wants to hear this. It went to #1. George kept showing up to the recording studio drunk. So they pieced together all his sessions and it turned out great❤
There will NEVER be another George Jones. His powerful voice has influenced so many people for decades upon decades. The greatest singers acknowledge him as the best. Even Frank Sinatra gave him props. Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings both put him above all the rest. He is a legend among legends.
There was one and only Ole Possum.
Johnny Cash once famously said when asked who his favorite singer was, "You mean besides George Jones?" :)
@@IFdude yeah and Waylon Jennings said, “If we could all sound like we wanted too, we would all sound like George Jones”.
@@IFdude Merle Haggard said his favorite singer is George Jones. He once said, “Jones's voice is like a Stradivarius violin: one of the greatest instruments ever made".
This is why I love your reaction channel. Nobody seems to realize he passed away. Good job!!
We will never have another George sadly cause we don't have country music anymore! Lol it's more hip hop and pop! At least we have the music to play from the greats, and George was a legend! Great reaction
He said he would love her 'til he died...and he was true to his word.
He lived this song and every other song he ever wrote.
I love your reaction when you caught it
This is largely considered the greatest country song of all time. For more upbeat ones of his try "The Race is On" and "White Lightnin", other great story songs but heart rending are "The Grand Tour " "A Picture of Me Without You" and a duet with Tammy Wynett "Golden Ring ".
For your next George Jones song I'd recommend something from his fun side. The Corvette song. You'll like the twist on that one.
Hes been called the greatest ballad singer of all time. Watch the series George and Tammy, really well done.
George recorded the number 1 sad country music love song, in the history of music. Loved the look on your face when you understood he was no longer among the living. Great reaction.
He loved her with all his heart and she didn't feel that anymore. 😢
Music that makes your feel is the very best of rear music!
Alan Jackson sang this at George Jones' funeral, one of the most moving live performances I've ever seen.
🇺🇸🌟🇺🇸 This gentleman had the best reaction out of all the reaction videos I’ve watched ,he got it right off 👍 some that I’ve watched they didn’t have a clue.
George had a LOT of sad songs, Things Have Gone to Pieces, Window Up Above, The Grand Tour and A Picture of Me Without You come to mind immediately, but this song was even too sad for George. Initially, he did not want to record it because it said it was so sad that no one would ever want to listen to it. It turned out to be his biggest hit! Actually, everyone who is married or who was ever married has made this same vow, "He said I'll love you till I die" because isn't that what the line, "till death us do part" in the marriage vows is saying? Sadly, millions of people do not take that vow seriously. The guy in this song said, "I'll love you till I die" and that's exactly what he did, he loved her until he died.
Yea this is one of the classics from George Jones. Still love the song
Youd love all his music. His song called choices is amazing
You should do The Masters Call by Marty Robbins next!
Loved it when you realized what happened.
@MrLboydReacts
the song was George Jones's true life story with Tammy Wynette. He wrote the song in 1980 after their tumultuous relationship and divorce and were married two separate people. They still saying and did shows together occasionally. Even though both were married to other people they never lost what they had for each other. The whole story is chronicled in a Showtime special one season documentary basically of their lives together. At the time in 1980 when he wrote this song he was still struggling with alcohol and drugs addiction that tore them apart. Therefore you can see why he would always imagined himself dying for Tammy Wynette. Sadly she passed away in the early 90s at only 55 years old. She was already a good bit younger than him. But sadly, he lived until 2013 at the age of 81 he finally got to join her! The Showtime one season story titled George & Tammy explains it all. It's inspirational yet heartbreaking all at the same same time! You should definitely spend the time to watch it if you truly want to know the story behind the song. Which I think is going on that we should all learn because you never know when they're going to go for the person you love is going to go so good lesson in life that don't take anything for granted. 😢😢 I love that you're interested in the story behind it I think it's great! So much meaning behind so many songs in any genre and it only makes us better to understand the true meaning behind all genres are not familiar with. They usually have good life lessons in them we just don't know the story behind them if they're not hard music necessarily. BTW if you get the chance to check out the Showtime story that tells this chilling story, I'll warn you now! Get a big box if tissues or just bring in the big pack of Charmin TP. You'll go from laughing to cry your heart for a month! It was well worth it for me! Good luck!
This has to be one of the saddest songs ever, but so elegant in its simplicity and I get misty eyed every time I hear it. I especially loved seeing your reaction when the penny dropped. Love your work, mate.
I love this song but it always makes me cry😂
Saying a lot....best reaction moment I've seen from you. First concert I attended was the Possum George Jones!!!
"The Corvette Song" is an upbeat, fun song, sung by George Jones. I'm sure you would enjoy it.
Its been a good year for the roses is a great George Jones song as well
The clue to the song is in the very first line.
I enjoyed your reaction. thank you!
the steal guitar in this was magnificent
Harmonica
The man's 2nd most well known nickname is No Show Jones. He's a top 10 alcoholic of all time and still did all that and had that voice....him riding his John Deere to the beer store when they took away all his keys isn't a joke
That steel guitar and harmonica should have questions you in on this wasn’t going to end well. Classic country music right here! The ol Possum could tell a story!
The letters dated 1962 we’re probably when he was in Vietnam. We wrote letters back then because no computers. Pen and ✍️ ink.
Hang a black wreath on the door was a custom when some died, especially in the south.
Your expression when you got it was priceless.
this song played over and over in my mind when my father passed. my stepmother had divorced him one day before his death from cancer.
He said I'll love you 'til I die
I just love your reviews. Spot on.
NOT OBSESSED WITH HER!! LOVE LOVE LOVE
‘He said I’ll love you til I die’ is the opening lyric and says it all. Then, “They hung a wreath upon his door’ is another clue that he had died. Hanging a black wreath on someone’s door was a sign to all who saw it that this household was in mourning. This was tradition for hundreds of years and brought to the New World by immigrants. This is still practiced in the south and small towns across America. I used to own a flower shop and we had one we gave the family if they used us for their funeral florals. I come from a Central California town. I grew up on old school country. There’s so much truth in the lyrics!💞
Where I live, it's usually a white wreath. I've lived in North Carolina all of my long life and I've never seen a black one. But we all know when we see that wreath what has happened.
I've watched a lot of reactions to this song, and you definitely do the best double-take when you connect the dots, of any reviewer.
Genuine Reaction
I love watching these reactions to this song. You can see the moment it dawns on the reactor that he has died.
George Jones was my father's favorite song. We played that at the end of his funeral 🙏♥️ thanks for doing this
There WILL NEVER EVER BE a song such as "He Stopped LOVING Her Today!!"" And, there WILL NEVER EVER BE another Country and Western Performer like THE POSSUM!!! He is THE GOAT 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐!!! PERIOD!!!
One of the greatest songs of all time and sung by one of the greatest legends in country music of all time!! Matter of fact my favorite!!! Appreciate if u would react to George Jones " Window up Above".. Its a good one!
Opening line. "He said I'll love you til I did. She said you get over me in time.". Someone kept their word.
Watching your face fall as you realized what the song was actually about... Yeah. That's where we are.
Good music is good music. And this was a good reaction video.
I was a radio DJ and just finishing high School when this song came out. It's hard to describe how big a hit this song was. It was a great time in country music. Alabama was at their height, Willie and Merle were releasing Pancho and Lefty, the Outlaw scene was flourishing in the underground, and George Jones was releasing the greatest country song of all time.
The interesting thing is that many people - now days - do not have that kind of love in their hearts.
If you remember, the first line to the song was, he said I’ll love her till I die
BRO, My friends and I saw George Jones right after 9 - 11. Minnesota has a Native American Casino on our western border. Mr Jones performed to an overflow crowd that night, singing many of his epic songs. Because it was so close to the Twin Tower tragedy in New York city, he incorporated more patriotic songs into his program. And a year or so later, by popular demand he come back to our same Casino for another date. We also were privileged enough to attend that concert. His voice has so much soul, people were literally crying. I'll never forget George or his music!
I always felt that
I hope someday you get a chance to listen to an artist by the name of Big AL Downing. He is an African American country music singer/songwriter. He never got the recognition he deserved. His two favorite songs of mine are "Mr Jones" and "The story behind the story." You will not be disappointed, especially since you like story telling songs.
You should check out Linda Martell. Color Him Father and Bad Case Of The Blues. She was the first commercially successful black female country singer. Her career was short but she had some hits. And her voice amazing.
Widely regarded as the best country song of ALL TIME.
George does some great and unique things with his voice. If you go down The Possum's rabbit hole (interesting, no?), you will hear what we mean.
Absolutely the best country singer and at my age he’s topped all others in any genre. Some sing songs whereas he lived them and it comes through so sadly.
Love your reactions to this song. I grew up listening to George Jones, and he is one of my favorites.
Thanks, MrBoyd! George (Possum) Jones.. was amazing.. and you should definitely hear some of the others - he totally deserved her leaving... listen to some more... you'll get it... lol
Originally he hated the song and refused to record it. He said it was too sad and that no one would buy it.
"If My Heart had Windows" My favorite George Jones song.
At first George Jones didn’t want to do this song, he said it was morbid. It became one of his biggest hits and is considered by some to be the greatest country song of all time.
Yes… Yes, he is the greatest country music singer of all time. This is one the saddest, most beautiful songs of all time as well. Thank you for the reaction! It was wonderful.
That "WHA?!?!?!?" moment you had... THAT'S the power of the song. But the entire story is in the first and last lines "He said 'I'll love you, till I die.' ... He stopped loving her today." It still boggles my mind how many people miss the point of the story though.
George and Tammy were married at one time and have a daughter together. He adopted her first two children. When they started back singing together on tour she had remarried. “I have a new husband in law”
I recommend when momma sang by George
Opening he said I'll love you 'til I die...
Greatest love song ever written .
This is the best of country,... and most of us thought long ago. he was singing it to Tammy.. but apparently that was not the case.... George supposedly didn't even want to sing this because of the conotations to Tammy
He was married to Tammy Wynette. He effed it up. She left. He never quite got over it. The song is about a fictionalized him not being able to get over her.
Pure amazing country that my Pop-Pop raised me on... I love it .. The Possum was one of the best... listening to your comments.. Tammy and George married 2 x and he was a drunk from hell.. He started singing this song when he finally got sober.
It's one of the top 3 country songs ever written!
I believe George didn't want to record it at first. He said it was to sad and knowbody would like it because of that . He said, "I was wrong"!
Tammy Wynette and George Jones were married at one point (hence the reference to her), George absolutely loved her and this song was written because of his love for her.
Like me some George Jones… but I don’t have him as the Greatest country singer… keep up the great content:)
my all time favorite singer is between george or hank williams , i can't choose between them. they both sing from their heart to yours. george would no doubt have one of the greatest voices ever , while hank's voice is so distinctive and unique . the two absolute gods of hillbilly music.
The first line says I'll love you till I die
None other than Frank Sinatra said that George Jones was the second best singer in America. I love that quote: it tells you a lot about George Jones and a lot about Frank Sinatra.
You should hear Alan Jackson sing this at George jones funeral.
The greatest country song ever. There'll never be another Possum.
You need to listen to his 'Choices'. It's an autobiographical song.
When the writers presented him with the lyrics George said that thing'll never sell, it's too damn sad. Years later when it became the monster hit of his career he said "boy was I wrong."
The key is the first line "he said he'd love her till he died..."
It depends on who is doing the ranking, but many consider George Jones the best country singer ever, and this the best country song ever.
The original recording of this song is much better than his live recording. George had so many hits that it's hard to pick one to suggest. Golden ring is a good one. The race is on. Window above. The grand tour is very good also. Another artist you may want to look at would be Randy Travis. 3 wooden crosses. Holly Dunn Daddy's hands.
"Golden Ring" a duet with Tammy Wynette. And if you're looking for a more cheerful, fun song, "The Corvette song"
You need to check out Chris Melanson from Canada the song is Room's For Rent it is the best REAL country Song I have heard in a long time.
Golden rings is a duet between George Jones and Tammy Wynette it should be your next one
If you want another emotionally charged story telling song from George Jones, I recommend "Radio Lover"
I have been dealing with this for like 50 years ,Now startng to log my dreams of her , she could end it at any time , thats the sick part
4:23 "Did he just die?" "He said, 'I'll love you til I die'...He stopped loving her today." There's your answer.
This was their marriage! Tammy Wynette love him so much & he just wouldn't get sober. I won't type a ton! She had to get away from him! But she loved him too! She ended up dying before George!! She tried everything to say. He was the sweetest man on earth when he was sober!! I happen to know him & I miss him sooo much! He finally got sober In the end with his last wife Nancy. She was a sweetheart!!
Reactors miss it because most don’t understand the reference “Wreath Upon His Door”.
A more fun song is "White Lightning" live version. The Corvette song is good also
He said, "I'll love you, 'til I die".
Saddest song in the world 🌎
