BEAUTIFUL!| FIRST TIME HEARING Marie Osmond & Dan Seals - Meet Me In Montana REACTION

[@Pauba1946]

Marie Osmond is “a liitle bit country” Donnie is “a little bit rock n roll”. That was their theme quote.

[@sherribrock2726]

A good song as well!!💜💜

[@robertrichardson2617]

And there theme song for their variety show

[@MetFan37]

Just to clarify....Donny Osmond was NEVER even "a little bit rock & roll".

[@michaelasay8587]

​@MetFan37 well I know one rock song they did was great🎉🎉🎉

[@aharon59]

@@MetFan37 Soldier Of Love was just a little bit Rock & Roll , in my opinion. Some of The Osmonds' stuff was more in the area than a lot of his early solo stuff but he has covered a lot of musical ground in his career.

You now need to hear "Your the reason God made Oklahoma". By David Frizzle and Shelly West.

David Frizzell is the younger brother of country legend Lefty Frizzell. Shelly West’s mother was Country Star Dottie West.

[@beedeegee9374]

Everything That Glitters is one of the best songs ever written.

[@thecasper911]

Don't forget Addicted, Bordertown, They Rage On, Love On Arrival, and Big Wheels In The Moonlight!

[@laurogarza4953]

Dan Seals later career is a great introduction to Western music. Seals, from Texas and raised on Western music, was told to "Lose the hat," and became a "Pop music" artist. After achieving success, he went out on his own, so to speak, and lent his great vocal talents to country and western music.

[@kathylivedinthe80s14]

[@MosaicRose99]

Guys, you should react to Marie Osmond and Andy Gibb singing "Suddenly". Andy and Marie were once involved in a romantic relationship and you can see the love in their eyes during this duet.

[@PaHeadhunter]

Dan Seals was in the duo England Dan and John Ford Coley. His brother Jim was in Seals and Croft. Dan had a bunch of country hits in the 80s. You should check out ‘Everything That Glitters Is Not Gold.’

[@elizabethfranco1284]

This came out in 1985. Cool fact, in 1993 Marie and actor John Scheinder founded The Children’s Miracle Network. Which was a continuation and expansion of the Osmond Family Foundation for the Deaf and speech impaired,which her mother Olive started because of the two eldest brothers,Virl and Tom being deaf. You should check out some of the documentaries about them!

[@mtpugh]

Dan Seals was in England Dan and John Ford Coley. His brother Jimmy Seals was in Seals and Crofts. I got to interview Dan at a Country Radio Seminar in Nashville in the late 1980s. I asked him how he came to be called England Dan. In a soft southern drawl he said, “My brother Jimmy gave me that name.”

[@lauriebarrett6789]

Crystal Gayle - "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue".

[@KylieRenae11]

They need to do the duet of Crystal Gayle and Eddie Rabbit “ Just you and I “ ..

[@douglasstrayer-ng5ql]

Crystal is the sister of Loretta Lynn

[@sandyhafenbrack141]

One of my all time favorite songs. When my husband first heard it he stopped and said "She has the voice of an angel". Then he learned that it was none other than the underrated Marie.

[@TristanandIsolt]

She did have the voice of an Angel. Dan Seals is the level above angel.

[@TheDazymae2]

This is Marie singing opera in tribute to her son Michael. She lost him a few years ago, due to overdose/ suicide and bullying. She writes about it in her book. She sings country, opera, broadway, rock and roll. She's a mother and grandmother. A great businesswoman with a great spiritual faith. I admire her so much!

[@laurelleathers2541]

"There's no stopping your heart" is another good Marie Osmond song

[@fscottgray9784]

So glad you got to this one. I sponsored Dan for a couple of local concerts and he is just a great guy. Dan is not from Seal and Crofts but rather is a brother. Dan was originally part of England Dan and John FOrd Coley.

[@bethfurlow7449]

I think you should hear their brother Merrill do a solo song. He's got a beautiful voice.

[@BroadwayBabyyy744]

Yassss finally!! So happy you picked this underrated classic. Love beyond words

[@dmbrew54]

Donny & Marie have entertained a lot over the years together. Their own TV shows, Las Vegas acts, and more. They have a duet called "'A Little Bit Country...A Little Bit Rock' n Roll" which has been a signature song of theirs forever. Can't remember if it was at the beginning or end, but they sang part of it every week on their TV show. Marie is the country one.

[@susanliltz3875]

Donny &Marie duets: 1. It Takes Two 2. The Morning Side Of The Mountain 3. Deep Purple 4. Little Bit Country/ Little Bit Rock and Roll

[@jealousjelly1]

When they had their tv show, Marie used to sing that she's "a little bit country" while Donnie would sing that he's "a little bit rock and roll." It was sort of their theme song.

[@jamesanthony5257]

This song was written by Paul Davis. "I go crazy"

[@jeffreyk5734]

Paul Davis has an awesome duet with Marie called "Your Still New To Me". Great songwriter and singer.

[@BroadwayBabyyy744]

Another Marie duet banger is, "Your Still New to Me" sung with the great Paul Davis

[@birdy1964-s2n]

A couple of Donny & Marie classics are "A Little Bit Country, "A Little Bit Rock n Roll" and "Morning Side Of The Mountain". You'll love em. ❤ 🎵🎼

[@sherrimaurer-i3z]

Knowing that Amber is an Andy Gibb fan, she should check out 3 duets that Andy did with Marie Osmond . " Sometimes When We Touch ", " Suddenly ", " Just Once ". I think all were from the early 1980's.

Dan Seals from England Dan & John Ford Coley ...

[@tinternabbess]

Dan Seals was not in Seals and Crofts. He's "England Dan" from England Dan and John Ford Coley. So interesting as I've always thought the 2 groups had a similar sound. Love all their songs. The music of yesterday was so eclectic and wonderful. We'd listen to the radio and there would be something like this, then Led Zeppelin would follow. Miss that!

[@susanliltz3875]

And Marie sounds different also because she’s older she was only 14 when she did Paper Roses !

[@darcyferrier775]

Marie Osmand is definitely country! That was driven home in her and Donny's TV show in the 70's. At the end of each show they would sing the same song; with courus being "I'm a little bit country"(Marie), "I'm a little bit Rock and roll" Donny. Lots of great memories...

[@thomastimlin1724]

They often sang it at the beginning of the show as well.

[@beedeegee9374]

Donny and Marie had their TV variety show when they were just teenagers. Bob Mackie designed the wardrobes and they had every big star alive on the show.

[@RMDole19]

Everything that Glitters is one of the best songs ever written. You need to check that one out.

[@61butlerpj]

Everything That Glitters is Not Gold by Dan Seals is a great song. The video for it is awesome!

[@cindyerick2968]

You need to check out the duet with Marie and Andy Gibb. The song is “Suddenly”. You will hear Andy without his brothers.

[@laurelleathers2541]

This is on my Playlist. Dan Seals is the brother of Jim Seals of Seals and Crofts. Dan is also England Dan who sang with John Ford Coley. I'd really love to see you tonight - great song too.

[@AntCranky]

She sings all sorts of songs but if you want to hear classical, her Pie Jesu is amazing.

[@GregoryEslick]

Marie was a little bit country and Donny was a little bit rock-n-roll. Loved Them on their variety show, almost as much as y'all. Happy to be part of the family.

[@cog4life]

Donny & Marie sang a song called “I’m a Little Bit Country..& I’m a Little Bit of Rock & Roll” 😊

[@feudist]

Dan Seals hit the 70s scene as England Dan in the group England Dan and John Ford Coley. They had a series of big pop/rock hits. "I'd Really Love To see You Tonight", "Love is the Answer", "It's Sad To Belong" "Nights Are Forever Without You"

[@beedeegee9374]

In 1995, Marie toured with The Sound of Music playing Maria Von Trapp. I was fortunate to see her in New Orleans and have a Meet and Greet with her, get her autograph and have her sign a couple of my Marie Osmond porcelain dolls. They were filming a a piece for E! and I was in it! ☺ I’ve been an Osmond fan since the early 70s.

[@bradparnell614]

Sooner or later you've got to check out some of the hits she had with brother Donny. Once Donny's voice changed they brought Marie in to hit some of the higher notes and a superstar duo was born. They not only had several hits as a duet, they had a hit variety TV show (while Marie was still a teenager), a talk show together, and an 11 year run in Vegas together. Donny does a tribute to their time together in the show he is touring right now where he sings the Beatles' In My Life while showing scenes of the two of them together through time.

[@keithritter4518]

Now you got to do Shelly West and David Frizzell's " Your The Reason God Made Oklahoma", Shelly's mother Dottie had some great duets with Kenny Rogers including " Anyone Who Isn't Me Tonight" and "Every Time Two Fools Collide" Try those on for size.

[@richwelling3409]

James (Jim) Seals was in Seals and Crofts. Dan Seals was previously known as England Dan, from England Dan and John Ford Coley. Dan is Jim's younger brother.

[@p.j.d.8199]

Next you'll have to do "Soldier of love" by Donny when he was older. He was considered music poison in the rock world because of the family being good and God fearing, so he released his song to radio without telling anyone who was singing it and it became a HUGE hit.

[@Pushindazees]

I don't think it had much to do with their religion, it was more that he was so known for bubble gum, teeny bopper, teen idol, virginal image. They didn't believe he could sing harder hitting rock.

[@w.l.6005]

Yes, music industry could not let a child grow up just like Shirley Temple

[@nancylambert9341]

So love Marie Osmond. Saw her in concert a number of times. She was so awesome in country. There's No Stopping Your Heart is awesome. Gotta love the video of her coming home to her son. She is one of the nicest people. After one of her shows she signed autographs for hours and signed whatever you had. Even gave pictures to people who didn't have something to sign. And never stopped smiling that amazing smile.

Three years ago she was in Norfolk for a holiday concert. She came by to say hello to some of the crew from 1990. Such a great person!

Beautiful song...always loved it since it was about my beautiful home

[@aharon59]

Marie definitely went more towards country than pop in her solo career and the reason for the difference in her voice is that she was 13 when she sang Paper Roses. I don`t know how old she was here but definitely she has a more mature voice in this one.

[@mateomelendez3733]

Marie is definitely a Country artist. Her first hit was "Paper Roses" as a teenager. In the seventies, during the weekly Donny&Marie television show, there was a segment in which Donny& Marie sang a duet about music genres She sang "I'm a little bit Country" which was contrasted with Donny singing "I'm a little bit rock'n roll". Check out "No stopping your heart" Jay, I believe you'll highly enjoy Marie's forays into opera. Checkout "Pie Jesu" and "Nessun Dorma" ( I am also a singer and this one continues to please me!) She is extremely talented! I love her range!!

[@Calvin15634]

I love the songs she did with Donny on their Winning Combination album (like Baby I’m Sold on You, I Want to Give You My Everything, You’re My Soul & Inspiration), and Goin’ Coconuts album (On the Shelf, Don’t Play With the One Who Loves You, Baby, Now That I’ve Found You).

Try a duet with Donny & Marie ... "I'm a lil bit country, I'm a lil bit rock n roll" OR "I'm leaving it (ALL) up to you" .. Used to watch their show together ... Always picking at each other. Marie was the only girl out 8 or 9 kids I believe. I think Donny & Marie both still perform in Vegas.
