Brenda Lee - “Little Miss Dynamite.” It’s crazy but I didn’t hear those 3 words in this interview. That’s who she was. 4’ 9”. My wife was 4 ft. 10. I was a paperboy when Brenda came on the scene. I fell in love with the very first song she recorded. I had a Matsushita 6 transistor pocket radio that used a 9 volt battery. Every time Brenda was on the radio - I put the radio to my ear. She deserved every good thing that came her way. Brenda was one of the few top names that didn’t get trashed like so many today. The reason was - her faith in the God above and a Mother who supported her and guided her. Brenda passed those traits on to her kids. I’m only 3 months older than Brenda but so fortunate to have grown-up with her. The interviewer of this video should be very proud to have had the pleasure of sitting in front of one of the Greatest females who has ever walked this earth. I thank KZbin for allowing this video to be shown. “” WOW “”

My Gramma took my sister and me to meet u when we were real young. You were staying with a relative, I think your Gramma. We lived on Superior St. In Benton Harbor, Michigan. You came out on a porch and you had on a yellow skirt with loads of creations and a white blouse with small yellow print pattern. I remember you just like it was yesterday. You were not much older than us but you were so polite and so cute! You probably thought u didn't want to go meet those kids but out you came with a big smile and you were so pleasant. I'll never forget that. I'm now 80 yrs old but I remember that like it was yesterday! My Gram knew your relative. I bet that house is still standing. Our best to you and all and thanks for being so kind. God Bless.

Great interview. I was lucky enough to had sat right next to this wonderful lady at a restaurant in Nashville Tn. We spoke for a couple hours or so about life, and some music interests. Growing up and being a singer myself and short, it was such an honor to be able to talk to her, especially on an equal Hight level. LOL!. She is a classy down to earth lady. I do believe her autobiography "Little Miss Dyno-mite" should be a major motion picture. It is long overdue.

Most of them aren't even singers, they're just manufactured products, granted success via a refined promotion machine, not because of their ability but because of their physical appearance and willingness to dress, do and say whatever they're told to. Almost none of them can sing live without trickery.

But her daddy had died and she had several siblings and no one to care for them if she had taken her on the road so my friend didn’t go. But she should have. It was the 70s. And she should have. So much talent voice wise. She got to meet allot of country music stars cause ET knew she had talent. She went to Nashville one time. ET payed for her and her mom. But her mother wouldn’t leave the other 4 children to go and she wasn’t letting her daughter go unless dge went afraid of what woujd happen to her if she went went them.

When I was a younger child, my Parents were told by many, including a couple with money to support me, that I could be another Brenda Lee. I liked that idea, but I would have been "myself" with my talent, personality, humor and all. Now, since I am old, my Parents have "admitted" that they KNEW I would make it in Nashville. They knew I would never live with them again; so they would not let me go and do the only thing in my life, that is still a passion in my life today. So Brenda, thank you for fulfilling so many of our dreams, when our Parents held us back. ❤

I remember Brenda as far back as the Red Foley show "The Ozarks Jubilee ". I met her back in Huntsville,Ala at the Grand Theater when she was singing with a band called the Casual's . She was 13 and I was 10 . Her sister was with her that night ..we sat beside her ..She invited us backstage to meet Brenda .. We talked and actually danced together back stage. A couple yrs later while at the Tennessee Theater in Nashville, Tn I heard my name called out ...I turned to see who it was and it was Miss Brenda Lee. I could not believe she had remembered my name .. After that we spoke on the ph a couple of times .. Last time we spoke was 1963 . That was the same yr she married Ronny Schaklett .. I would love to see her again ..

I danced with Barbara Mandrel to a Bobby Vinton song at the Women’s Club in Camp Pendleton, California back in 1965. Patti Page invited my wife and myself up to her dressing room when she performed in Rochester, NY. My 2nd. Wife and I talked to Johnny Lee in Nashville during his break for about 15 minutes. But - Brenda Lee. Sharon - I envy you. I grew-up with her - just like you did.

Great interview with the best rock/country/ballad/pop singer. Having seen her so many times when she came to the UK I can say that no other singer could entertain as Brenda did. The joy of the anticipation of each new album she brought out from the 60s onward was just wonderful. Her interpretation of so many old songs or even new song could take your breath away. Each album might be a different genre from the last and one would play over and over. Thank you Brenda for all the pleasure you brought me with your singing.

Grew up listening to Brenda’s music. That strength in her voice, was amazing. Such an inspiration! We are about the same age and to see her so strong, sharp and loving life is motivating. I am from Puerto Rico, moved to Illinois at the age of 15. The best way to perfection the English language was to immerse myself in the culture. To me, it was through music. Watching American Bandstand, Ed Sullivan show, comedy shows, Connie Francis, etc; listening to country music, and Christmas music helped me along the way. Brenda is part of my past and my present. “Rocking Around the Christmas tree”, and others became part of my vocabulary. Thanks for the contribution. Retired as a court interpreter/translator. Blessings and prosperity to you and your family. Aly from Arizona.

If she wrote a book detailing it, I can see a little bit how she remembers but unless it's all written down, I couldn't remember all my teachers, band and orchestra leaders' names, much less all the people I worked with, etc.! It's amazing to me how she remembers all those details. Interesting. What a career she's had. Brava, Brenda!

Oh my gosh! I remember watching Brenda Lee and standing on a mop bucket to sing. My granny loved YOU! I’m sooo happy to get to see you, I used to sing all your songs.

I saw her in Oklahoma City in either 1965 or 1966. Tiniest little thing with the huge voice. I had loved her music from the first time I head it. I look back and think, " I didn't even shake her hand, ask for an autograph, or a picture. Didn't even know I could do that. I just listened to every note and watched her. Thank you Brenda Lee.

I think the Interviewer was as original as Brenda Lee. You could see that by the way Brenda showed attention to her. We ALL stumble in our Beginnings. I give the girl credit to put herself in front of a LEGEND.

Graceful, filled with humility, kind beyond explanation, a lesson and model for those born outside of her time. I grew up listening to her way of translating lyrics to music like no other. Her songs still resonate the power of her renditions throughout the decades from long ago to today. She loved what she did and so do all of us.❤️

I'm just seeing this and I love Brenda Lee. I know moms get upset when daughters get married behind their backs. I done it and my gran I thought she was going to have a heart attack. But I was 8 months pregnant but if I could do it over I would have got married first but we have a beautiful daughter who is 13 and I've been married 13 years we have been together almost 17 years

Amazing woman. I enjoyed every minute of that. We were born about a month apart and both came from Georgia. I loved her music. She got into the business about 5 or 6 years ahead of me and tho we worked on different levels, we experienced much the same things. It was like a walk down memory lane in many ways to hear her talk of her experiences. Mine was of course somewhat different and yet very much the same. It's wonderful to see how she came thru the industry largely unscathed since so many did not. And she is so right. I am glad to have come thru that period of time. It was a time of creativity like no other and the music can never be like that again. In some ways a time of innocence and discovery. But then, I imagine every generation feels a bit the same about their time of growing up. I always loved her but after this I just so respect who she is beyond the music. And her smile has never changed! ❤❤

I see a sparkle in Brenda Lee's eye's. Ive always liked listening to her. My sister was named after her. She seems to have a lot of Spunk. And Im impressed at how she stayed true to herself, has confidence, honeaty, is straight forward, grateful and appreciative! I agree that singers today ahould learn from previous generations. If they love music, you'd think that they would want to. I'm not musical and I have learned alot of history in music. I enjoy that! I would love to have a conversation with her and listen to her stories and experiences! ❤ A Legend!
