This song is telling his love how important she is to his life and has NOTHING to do with missing anyone or break ups. I watched this very show on television when it first aired in 1980 with my wife.
I heard Kenny Rogers sing live in the 80s. He shocked me because it was clear when I was in his concert that I had never heard a recording that did justice to his voice. Live, his voice was simply at another level. Other artists did not seem to me so extremely different from recording to live.
He has the Lady. She's not gone. He's telling her he loves and needs her. It's one of the most beautiful love songs ever. I love how Kenny does that with his voice. Sadly Kenny passed away.
I love so many things about that video. One great example is when Kenny is trying to get Lionel to do the reverb technique. You can just tell the friendship chemistry between the 2. Lionel stayed in Kenny's like poolhouse or whatever for it is called for those "spare" small mother-in-law-type livable buildings.
Love Kenny Rogers music from when he was with the First Edition (60's-70's) to his solo career. He was a great story teller in many of his songs like "Coward Of The County" & "The Gambler". He had so many hits "Lucille", "Through the Years", "She Believes In Me" etc. He did a lot of duets such as with Kim Carnes "Don't Fall In Love With A Dreamer", with Sheena Easton "We've Got Tonight" & with Dolly Parton "Islands In The Stream". He also did quite a few duets with Dottie West.
He is singing to his "Lady". He sorta feels sorta like a fool for falling so fully in love with her. But he and his lady are totally in love and he is singing this song to her.
Saw Kenny in concert in early 2000s, he was still singing his arse off… including this song, written by the great Lionel Richie. Kenny was an amazing singer and entertainer. May he RIP!!
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Another great song by Kenny Rogers Is 🎵Sweet music man 🎵Coward of the county 🎵she believe in me You gonna love this one too Keep the good work my friend ✌️👍👏
Please react to Kenny Rodgers and Lionel Richie..sing Lady together. Lionel wrote song a young songwriter, for Kenny... This duet brings them together years later, Kenny older, Lionel Richie of course has made a mark now in music history. To see them together 35 years later. It's a emotional experience...
Hi from Australia, just here to say I love your reactions and your personality! Kenny was amazing, he’s passed on now, he was about 81 when he passed in 2020..
Lionel and Kenny are genius! I think he is just proclaiming his love to her and he says he is and always will be a fool for her love and there’s no love like our love. You got it…check out the vid with both Lionel and Kenny singing.
Kenny Rogers does that reverb with his voice. You can see it when he is in a you tube video with Lionel Ritchie. He was amazing!!! Just came across your channel today!!!
First time watching your channel. I have been listening to Kenny since I was a child, so I am a diehard fan. So glad you picked up the gist of the song at the end. Please do more Kenny he is a diverse and talented artist who has a lot of fans. It broke my heart when he passed. And don't worry about folks who complain you stop to much. This is a reaction channel. If they want to listen to with out interruptions they can go the artist directly, they have no business being on a REACTION channel. Keep uo the good work!
Kenny Roger's was a member of the panty dropping club. Lol!He has passed on if im not mistaken.He and Lionel Richie had been close friends.You see them standing beside one another in the We Are the World Video.Lots of footage of thoes two singing together ❤️!
I enjoy your reactions. I love, love, love Kenny Rogers. He had such a distinctive and wonderful voice.. His Country songs all tell good stories. His R&B songs are beautiful love songs. 2 duets you just have to listen to are: Kenny and Lionel Richie singing "Lady" together some 30 years after the song came out. (RUclips video) Lady was Kenny's cross over from Country to R&B song and was a huge success. It changed Kenny's career, brought it up to the superstar level. You must also listen to Kenny and Dolly Parton singing "Islands In The Stream" ( RUclips video). They are delightful together. More Kenny Rogers songs: Ruby, Lucille, The Coward of the County, The Gambler, So In Love With You, Through The Years,
This is a beautiful song & Kenny released this in 1980 & Lionel Richie also released it a few years later. They were friends until Kenny died in 2020. After he died Lionel did a tribute show to him, which was perfect, because in 2012 Kenny honored Lionel. It was in Las Vegas in 2012 & they sang this together & it was amazing. The friendship & love between them was such a beautiful thing to see & a must watch. Check it out. Kenny has another beautiful song called 'Through the years' which is especially wonderful for married couples & longtime partners. He also has some amazing 'story songs' like 'The Gambler', 'Coward of the county' & 'Lucille'.
It seems like the verses are played in a minor key, with the chorus giving us the payoff as it's resolved into a major chord. Thankfully I was able to see him perform a few years before he passed in 2020. He still sounded great 💖🦋
There is nothing cliche about a love song like this. We felt this song deep in our hearts in a time when men could express their feelings in a song for a woman they love. These were REAL FEELINGS, not FAKE like today. There is something that has disconnected younger people to their emotions and feelings in today's world. It is sad. The song is purely about him proclaiming his love in words and song to his woman. People all over the world said their wedding vows to this song. Where is the heart of music today??? Gone forever???
You missed the very begining. He said the song was written and produced by Lionel Richie. There is a live version of them singing it together. They ended up being life long friends. That version is my favorite just because of their friendship. Check it out, by the way Kenny just died in 2020
I think the part where Kenny says that she made him such a fool meaning that she's turned him into such a childish kind of guy and he's still say and do anything because he's just head over heels in love with her
Try a singer called Teddy Swims. He's on RUclips. A great song he does is called I Can't Make You Love Me If You Don't. Get ready. He'll blow your mind!
Kenny Rogers did not write the song and he had no intentions about what the song means because Lionel Richie wrote it and Kenny said so in the beginning. Did you not listen?
He didn't mean she had made him a fool in a vindictive way. That's something else wrong with things today. He's celebrating her being in his life and every message you're getting is that he lost her.
It was a strange time to be a young man. It wasn't cool to say stuff like this to your lady, even though you really wanted to. So you'd call in to the radio station and dedicate it to her.
Okay…Lady is in his life. He’s not feigning for her. He is paying homage to his woman. He’s singing a tribute to his lady. Where in any of the lyrics has his lady left him? She hasn’t gone anywhere. Basically he just is telling her how much she means to him. What her love means to him and how her love has affected his life (something your generation is not used to). Also when he says “you have gone and made me such s fool. I’m so lost in your love” merely means he’s so in love with his Lady….a fool in love. She’s not gone anywhere. This is a true true love song. This man would never throw his woman on a grill.(words taken from today’s so called love songs). Most women would rather their man hold up a boom box at her window “80’s” style than throw them on a grill, basically being violent. Just saying. U missed the mark on this one. Play this song for your “Lady” and see how she reacts. Better yet sing it to her with or without auto tune.
Honey, you’ve got to give enough time between your comments for your fans to react. This is a beautiful son but even you are missing the whole song. We understand the lyrics you don’t need to repeat them. I’m going to listen til the end but I’m so disappointed this time. You are usually great.
Connie, I learn as a listener to let it rock! But my iMPULSE to breakdown Lyrics is sometimes uncontrollable. So I appreciate you listening to the end!
No Lionel Richie wrote this song for Kenny Rogers about the love he has for his wife she hasn't left she's still there he's just professing all that she means to him
This song is telling his love how important she is to his life and has NOTHING to do with missing anyone or break ups. I watched this very show on television when it first aired in 1980 with my wife.
Agree§!! Beautiful love sing… watched when this was aired
I heard Kenny Rogers sing live in the 80s. He shocked me because it was clear when I was in his concert that I had never heard a recording that did justice to his voice. Live, his voice was simply at another level. Other artists did not seem to me so extremely different from recording to live.
I was very young, and went with my parents. It was a family show anyways, but yeah, I have to say he sounded much better live.
He has the Lady. She's not gone. He's telling her he loves and needs her. It's one of the most beautiful love songs ever. I love how Kenny does that with his voice. Sadly Kenny passed away.
You got it at the end! This is an anthem love song as you described! Kenny died a few years ago at 81. Love your reactions!
Lionel Ritchie wrote this song and there is a video on RUclips of them both performing it together. Kenny died at the age of 81 in 2020.
I love that video!!!!
I loved that performance with Lionel Ritchie and Kenny you could just see the love and respect they had for each other.
I love so many things about that video. One great example is when Kenny is trying to get Lionel to do the reverb technique. You can just tell the friendship chemistry between the 2. Lionel stayed in Kenny's like poolhouse or whatever for it is called for those "spare" small mother-in-law-type livable buildings.

Him singing this song with Lionel is awesome to see as well. ❤it is his song after all!

He is singing to his "Lady". He sorta feels sorta like a fool for falling so fully in love with her. But he and his lady are totally in love and he is singing this song to her.
She has not left, he is telling her how much he loves her and how she makes him complete
You are so right; from 75-95, love songs were phenomenal. Men sang to women about love with respect; and most women were worthy of that respect.
No reverb just pure singing, pure talent, unlike todays singers. Kenny is amazing
No reverb, it's called talent. Something todays singers don't have without their autotune and tricks of the trade.
One Of The Most Beautiful Songs Ever Written 💝
There was no reverb or auto-tune back then. They relied on their pure talent.
Kenny was 42 in this video... it was 1980. Unfortunately, he isn't with us anymore. He passed in March of 2020 at the age of 81.
This is a timeless love song by one of the greats.
Unrequited love lurks !
Saw Kenny in concert in early 2000s, he was still singing his arse off… including this song, written by the great Lionel Richie. Kenny was an amazing singer and entertainer. May he RIP!!
Kenny was in his fourties’ when this was done and the ladies loved his silver hair.
That reverb is his voice. He does that. In many songs.
Perfection!!! Thanks for sharing.
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Another great song by

I did love your reactions and your comments ❤❤
He's not heartbroken...he's in love
1980. This song gave Lionel Richie and R & B artist the Country & Western Songwriter of The Year Award.

Every woman would love to hear these words from her man.

Kenny was among many beloved that we lost in 2021.
must follow-up with Kenny and Lionel sing this together live. Their friendship is beautiful.
Lady can be substituted for anyone's name.
Dear heart, kenny knew how to treat a lady,
A fool FOR love, not made a fool of BECAUSE of love
I saw him sing this in the 80's at the country music awards.
This song was played at many a wedding and anniversary parties.
❤❤❤❤❤
A love song for his "lady". …......
National anthem for me right there. 🤣😂
He's singing a love song to his love
RIP Kenny Rogers This was written by Lionel Richey sang by Rogers in 1980 and later by Richey in 1998.
😊he died three years ago he was 81 he is one of my all time favorite singers.

This song as released in September of 1980.

Kenny was 42 years old when this song was released in 1980. Sadly, he is no longer with us.
You should check out Kenny Rogers and Home Free performing Children Go Where I Send Thee. 🔥
I think the part where Kenny says that she made him such a fool meaning that she's turned him into such a childish kind of guy and he's still say and do anything because he's just head over heels in love with her
Try a singer called Teddy Swims. He's on RUclips. A great song he does is called I Can't Make You Love Me If You Don't. Get ready. He'll blow your mind!
Old geezer sings well !
Sigh…this is how a gentleman tells a woman how he feels. My mother loved Kenny, and now I totally get it.
You might like Kenny Rogers and Lionel Richie singing"Lady" together ❤❤
That's not reverb honey that's his voice
Somewhere there is a video of Kenny Rogers and Lionel Richie singing this together. It is really good.
Pls check out the video of Kenny doing this song with Lionel Ritchie. Epic!
Kenny rogers “Coward of the County” very country but listen to the meaning.
Just flooding the basement, if you know what I mean!
Lionel Richie write this for him. Look up these 2 together Las Vegas
you should find andreact to kenny lionel singing this song together. he calls up lionel from the audience and gives him credit.
Sorry..no reverb back then..lol. just voice!
This is a song that you play for your wife driving to a resort on your honeymoon or at the wedding
You were definitely off base in your take on this song. It’s a love song to the love of his life.
No. This is a classic love story between a man and a woman. No break up here.
He passed away in 2020
This was done in 1980 I’m not wrong I think he died in late 22 or early 23.😢
Kenny Rogers did not write the song and he had no intentions about what the song means because Lionel Richie wrote it and Kenny said so in the beginning. Did you not listen?
🔥🔥🚒👩🚒👩🚒🔥🧯🧯
He didn't mean she had made him a fool in a vindictive way. That's something else wrong with things today. He's celebrating her being in his life and every message you're getting is that he lost her.
I CAME to that conclusion near the end
@@MugnifyRTS Sorry. I was being a grumpy old guy.

Catnip pure catnip.
I have been pregnant 11 times in my life. Pretty sure 8 are a direct result of this song. 😉
Just a man professing his love for his lady. It’s been said the release of this song corresponds with a large increase in birth rates 🤣
Love your reactions but this one was difficult with not being able to get into the flow of the song in 10 sections
I been trying to get out of the habit but sometimes I can control my impulse to breakdown.
Much love man……but I understand it is a reaction channel and I enjoy your insight
Okay…Lady is in his life. He’s not feigning for her. He is paying homage to his woman. He’s singing a tribute to his lady. Where in any of the lyrics has his lady left him? She hasn’t gone anywhere.

This WAS a panty dropper😂
Nope it's live, it's all Kenny. No faking. Nope it's a love song to his woman. Duh!

Ummm. No.
You talk and interrupt way too much.
