It must of been a privilege to know him he never let fame go to his head.RIP Conway you are missed.
He said, "If I could walk out on stage, do my thing, and get off stage, and have nobody know who I am, that'd be great. Those guys in KISS did it right. They wear all that makeup and it hides their identity"
This is why Conway Twitty is my all time favorite singer.
His voice was the best friend a country music song ever had! R.I.P. Harold Jenkins aka Conway Twitty.
Years ago I dated ladies that had children they play his music & Brad paisley music get right at the heart??!! No matter did work out the mother & I love the children hope they know that do not hate ??!!!
Big fan of his words in the music meant all to my heart
I was Hardin before I married.
I had an acquaintance who called up Conway Twitty back in the 1980's. He was actually listed in the phone book under "Harold Jenkins'.! He answered the phone himself and she pretended to know him. She said that he was very polite. Eventually she admitted that she was just a fan that did not really know him and he chuckled and was very nice. He was a real person!!
judy ann qq,
love conway he was so cute and sexy
Conway was a kind person. He really was a great entertainer. Sad that he left us so soon. R.i.p. Conway.
A true legend ! When country was country !
Conway wasn't very tall and he didn't have a great body. But he sang to women like he absolutely loved them. He was the sexiest man that I have ever seen!!
I DONT EVEN THINK HE KNEW HOW GREAT HE REALY WAS...HE NEVER HAD THE RESPECT FROM THE INDUSTRY,,,,BUT HE REALLY DID FROM THE FANS....HE WAS THE BEST IN EVER FACET OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AND HE ALWAYS WILL BE....HE COULD WRITE, PERFORM AND THE ONLY SINGER THAT COULD EVEN COME CLOSE WAS ELVIS....HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT...
My Mom @ Dad loved Twiggy City! They went there many time especially at Christmas time when it was all decorated for the holidays. It was truly a beautiful site. They loved Conway Twitty!!!
conway will always be miss was a great talent ..
He was and still is my favorite singer. I love his voice, it’s so soothing.
My favorite episode!! RIP Robin Leach! I spent good times watching your show when I was young. 😢😥
Yeah, ME TOO!! Great stuff, Robin was!
conway seems like an everyday person his voice talking is as sexy as his singing voice strong personality so sweet.
I seen in Conways museum, he had a 1955 thunderbird convertible with only 163 actually miles on it. beautiful car
he was a down to earth guy that went too soon.
Sad see Conway and the Twitty place gone. Nice have Fans to remember him. I sure do his music and songs he sang and the voice in each song very special lots of Fans around the world. Rate 100% video tell true Conway like be close to his fans now and forever more. But he still in are hearts and music listen will live on year come. God bless Conway Twitty.
God bless conway
WOW this brings back some memories. My mother is Friends with Conways sister Norma Jean, we use to spend the summer there, i was a little kid at the time, it was so cool to see it again, i remember those buildings and music halls he had, they had a museum tour thing with all his Gold records. I remember those short shorts LOL big sock. I remember Michael singing too in the auditorium where Conway was Signing autographs.. Thanks for posting this, very nice!!!
conway is good looking and a great talent. rk
I like his simplicity and humbleness. He is very lucky to have such a beautiful place to call his own. I like t hear him speaking on his gratefulness for his fans that are the ones that suport his music. I first heard ihim in my hometown in north Italy before learning English and now that I know the language I want to finally listen to every word of his songs.
He was a true legend and he definitely was country!
Great singer love his music
Conway will always be the best. R.I.P Conway Thanks for all the great music & memories. You will never ever be forgotten. So sad & horrible that we lost Twitty City that Conway wanted so bad & made happen for his family & friends so sad greed tore it down.
God Conway was so good to his fans.....
I saw him one time in Hattiesburg, Mississippi and he was GREAT!!! Got to talk to him and he was so nice and friendly. Told him that I had just been to an ELVIS CONCERT and he said he would love to see ELVIS in concert....Never got a chance..I LOVE his music ❤Got all of his CD'S.....
I use to love going to Twittyland, some fond memories from my childhood.
I was lucky to she him twice very very good singer very nice person
Always liked him and most of his songs !!
He knew why he was wealthy and who made him that rich. The fans...
I seen conway in concert I believe 82 in cape girardeau.mo . So so great. Looked and sung amazing .
He’s a good man. He originally wanted to be a preacher and I can see that. They don’t make them like Conway anymore! He kinda reminds me of Elvis Presley! Another great one!
i was born in 1989 , so i never got to know him when he was alive , jot really but i got to know him 5 yrs ago and didnt realize i was a fan until i rode 16 hrs in a car and listened non stop to him.i would of turned on someone else and skiped cds. lol heard all his songs and maybe skipped over 15 mostly his very early ones.i am thank ful .blake shelton singing his songs. that is very nice complaint. love that. so sad. wish he was more respected. his songs we so well written and delivered well
I Saw George Jones and Conway twitty in minneapolis mn.
@HoGraz
I love your comment soooo much. I love Conway but what you said is probably so true!
I loved Conway seen him 8 times inn concert he was REAL country
Conway passed away in 1993 and he did have more #1 than George Strait check your facts
Been there it was beautiful.
I live about an hour drive away from this place. I wanted to see it, but seeing what you said, kinda bummed me out.
I had the same reaction lol!
What a great guy he was!
Class act
does anybody know the guy that used to have a channel on here that sold me some conway twitty dvds I need to get in touch with him I think his name was R smitha
this is where MTV cribs got their idea huh? Conway was THE man! RIP dude!
Love you Conway and omg tray looks an sounds just like you
Is it still there
Conway Twitty was so damn cool
Love this, my grandmother was his cousin. My great grandmother was a Jenkins. I used to think it was cool to be kin to him..
Please tell me this is still open and if it isn't, please lie to me and say it is!
Hard to believe that after all we do and possess we end up in a cemetery or mausoleum alone eternally, no glory is big enough to grant us a reprieve. I'm just thinking about it because I was visiting the other day the mausoleum where he's laying . Rip CT.
Yup that's my Dad
I'v been there twice when it was Twitty City & now Trinity City .
I will alwsys love Conway Twitty
Twitty City has turned into some sort of Christian church complex.
Here another great country singer ever he new how to sing and with dolly Parton both vantantakes singer to geather he would not be to happy way country music is today nice to here him
AMC Pacer?? LOL
He held the record for the most number one singles of any act with 40 No. 1 Billboard country hits until George Strait broke the record in 2006. Check into it.
Conway had 55 total number one hits in his career. George Strait now has the record, but it wasn't totally organic like Conway. There was a big media blitz to get George Strait over the hump get the record. Don't get me wrong, I like George Strait, but he's no Conway Twitty.
Conways had box's of $ my mom Connie took via Manny Sr told me 94 & in 92 he said goodbye b4 he died
I wish people wouldn't comment on celebrities lives like they are privy to how it really was, how those people felt & who & why they left their money to..none of use REALLY know what went on...just speculation...& repeating rumors they've heard.
Stop the video at 40 seconds I'm the kid in the red sleeveless - the only time I ever met my Dad Conway.
I judged a talent show with Joni one time and she told me her step mom killed Conway. I just set there and didn’t know what to say.,
Dewy Cox!
to see ur fathers stuff sold letters ,gold records is sad it doesn't matter how much money he shd have married loretta lynn they had chemistry
That's me 41ssecond mark - red shirt!
He built twitty city so his family could live their and they could be close together and his fans could see him in real life so why the hell did his wife sell everything and his poor children thrown out. He will be turning in his grave. He should of been buried their because he loved the place his family and fans.
His wife should have been stopped by a judge and all his possession frozen to stop the sell of what he built.
Rip legend
I have an outfit just like his, I wear it often
Hey dad thanks for the pocket change! But mom (Loretta Lynn) left me more!! Thank you mom
Whatever happened to Twitty City?
I love you Daddy!
He hasn't had that record for the past ten years the current record is George Strait and he has more #1 hits than any artist in any genre in the history of the world.
dausherman1 I loveGeorge ,too, but Conway has been gone 25 years. Had he lived, he would have lots of number ones. Plus, he wrote most of his.
@@janiceivy6786 YOU ARE SO RIGHT....
FOX HOLE KOREAN WAR BUDDY -SAID HE WITNESSED HAND TO HAND COMBAT- HE HAD SUPER NATURAL STRENGTH! REALLY
💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲
that means i have all his gold alblums
Thanks dad for the MONEY . ( Loretta Lynn) mom thank you for your money too , I deserve it.
Now where former Arkansas Governor and Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee hosts his television show.
I hate the fact that I was never able to go. Thanks to the hubs.
Too bad his greedy wife forced the sale and auction of everything this man worked for.
So damn sad what happened to him and what that greedy woman did to his family. I think it was planned from the beginning by her, to take all he had from his family.
A legal battle ensued between his Twittys widow and his children which lasted yrs, costing tens and tens of thousands of dollars. Ultimately, all of Twitty's assets were auctioned, including the famous “Twitty City” in Hendersonville, where his and his children's residences were located. Greed and more Greed!
does twitty city sell conway twitty wigs? i want one his hair in this video is sexy
Alset
@TheDoomfarmer get a grip on yourself damn
Anyone want to know the truth about my dad and his war buddy / " Lodge friends 🙄 aka mafia
Even the rock psychobilly/horrorpunk band, The Misfits have covered his song; It's only make believe. RUclips it...
George Straight actually passed Conway but who cares. Elvis for goodness sakes, is the standard.
@Christopher Tyler, In my opinion Conway had the voice, George had the charm and Elvis had it all !!
@@janetbrowntlc YOU ARE SO RIGHT....I LOVED THEM ALL...BUT ELVIS DID HAVE IT ALL....I HAVE BEEN TO SEE CONWAY AND GEORGE, BUT SEVEN TIMES TO SEE ELVIS.
@@suelott9612 You are so very lucky. I never got to see any of them but had I had the opportunity, Lord knows I would've chose Elvis .He left a light on this world that no one will ever surpass.
Con-way seek gold or God
Love the hot pants!
It's sad that Trinity Broadcasting Network bought his house. Now it a "Christian" T.V. Channel.
Most country singers, sang stories of the hard drinking country men, Conway sang to their woman and Nashville didn't like that much.
This guy makes me laugh when he pops up on Family Guy, such a funny looking head haha. I never actually heard of this guy until i saw him on there, is he actually still popular?
I hope you're fucking joking. You're either pretending to be this daft or you are honestly that clueless. Conway Twitty is a LEGENDARY COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME MEMBER. 55 #1 hits! More hits than Elvis even.
Family guy XD
dee would have had another graceland if she wasn't so greedy , and if she wasn't in such a conflict with his kids,seems like that is what he wanted another fan place to go to
I wondered why Family Guy always cuts to lengthy takes from his stage performances, so I looked him up. I thought he looked like your typical drunken Klansmen on quaaludes, but I was pleasently surprised to find out he was a real gentleman!
Actually George Strait does now.
conways 3 wife was the one sold everting and didnt have kids married 6 yrs needed whippy.
she was not his life partner his wives with which he had children with were dee was just a young quick marriage seeing he did not include her in the will that shd have said he wanted his kids to have his legacy
when he died...his wife threw out every single person he had on his estate. all of his family members were evicted from the property. including his own MOTHER. she took all the money and everything else he worked for and kept it all for herself.
That is what I call a real bitch.
how do you know that about when is he died that happined
+cat number 5 and because they did a documentary on him. it was here on youtube.
+wattamutt oh thats how you found out that is awfule
wattamutt Twitty City is not there now enough said if she had loved him she would have kept it there for him and we would be able to still go for him. She destroyed it. She was a money grubbing witch and when she sees Conway on the other side I hope he hits her in the mouth and waits for me .
He chose her for his wife...Lifetime partner.....Does Anyone think HE LOVED HER!!!! Duh......
Laurie Salmen. She was nothing but a gold digger, he may have loved her but did she love him, from what I have read and interviews I have seen it doesn't seem so.752-0439
divorce wasnt in will.
Please LORD, let Donald Trump get re-elected. We so need him.
OMG fans and Dee did not steal anything. Conway's children will never want for anything. They had life by the butt because of their daddy. But get a clue- Conway chose Dee for his wife and he loved her!
Because she was his wife and life partner and she should NOT have had the BS she got after he died. I would have done the same as she did just to her the nightmare over. Don't judge till you are in HER shoes!
Laurie Kirk .ca
was dirty 2 sale everthing conway had didnt have her in the will was a gold digger invited herself in needed whipping
I wonder who ended up with his old pacer wagon...lol
