British Guy Reacts to DWIGHT YOAKAM - Ain’t That Lonely Yet (COUNTRY MUSIC REACTION)

[@roniboyd613]

No controversy there, he DOES have one of the best voices in country music😁 Great reaction, so glad you liked this song.

[@wg7644]

Swing ballad.

[@matthewlee6168]

You need to check out some of Dwight's older stuff: 'Guitars, Cadillacs', 'I Sang Dixie', 'Please, Please Baby', 'It Won't Hurt', and 'Streets of Bakersfield' should get you started!

[@catwhisperer9489]

ALL, excellent picks---especially, "Guitars, Cadillacs"!! 💜

[@TheLwaller09]

"Guitars, Cadillacs" is one of the seminal songs of that decade in country music.

[@pageribe2399]

I SANG DIXIE - please

[@heather6668]

Such a distinctive voice. Definitely check out his first few albums - Guiitars, Cadillacs, Hillbilly Deluxe Buenas Noches from a Lonely Room - lots of great songs on those

[@devonbell6795]

The Dwight rabbit hole is incredible. “Guitars, Cadillacs” “Streets of Bakersfield” and “I Sang Dixie” are amazing. He also did a live cover of “Sloop John B.” He’s backed by a band called The 3 Pears. His vocals are next level!

[@888strummer]

Streets of Bakersfield with Buck Owens and Turn It Up Turn It On Turn Me Loose are my favorites along with Ain't That Lonely

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Guitars and Cadillacs should be next - followed by As Fast as You. He also does a really good cover of Suspicious Minds - and Little Sister by Elvis. I love his voice but think Josh Turner has the BEST voice in country. Dwight comes close though. Love the cadence and flow of this song. Cheers from Canada :)

[@deeannaestep9375]

Total agreement with you about Dwight's voice! "You're The One" is one of my favorites by him, but there are sooo many! This one was also a favorite. Thanks for the reaction!

[@johnjsal]

Yes! He's done two of his best already, but You're the One is also amazing!

[@kathyk5319]

I like Dwight's honky-tonk songs such as Guitars, Cadillacs, Long White Cadillac, Little Ways, Honky Tonk Man, to name a few. They rock! 🎸

[@catwhisperer9489]

LOVE "Honky Tonk Man"!!

[@arnoldhancock5104]

Dwight Yoakam - "Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room (She Wore Red Dresses)" [Live from Austin, TX] I've been trying to get someone to react to this song for 2 years. It's a great live song

[@emmef7970]

Man, can I relate, going on two years on a couple songs I have requested. Gave you a like not only for the song but to get you closer to your goal of getting it played! Good luck!👍

[@sisleymichael]

Amen. I love that video!!

[@catwhisperer9489]

I only listened to this, to hear a British person, say "ain't"!!! It was worth it---it stuck in your throat, a little!! LOLOLOL j/k I wouldn't say this is a little pop; Dwight is good ol' Country!! I DO agree that he has one of the best voices, ever---I'm THRILLED that you like him!! My vote is for "Guitars, Cadillacs", next---and I agree with the person who said you should listen to some of his honky-tonk songs!!

[@amydawson8949]

Lol 😂

[@calamityjayne4164]

Dwight's cover of "Suspicious Minds" is amazing! "I Sang Dixie" makes me tear up. Love hearing that voice! 💗

[@vickiroman189]

Dwight (and his jeans) was instrumental (pardon the pun) in turning me on to country music. "Little Sister" and "Fast as You" are two of my faves - thank you!

[@usmadgirl3074]

Great reaction as always! Dwight has a beautiful, unique voice & I love it too!😍 I still wish you'd react to Chuck Wicks' "Stealing Cinderella"! It's sweet & beautiful & the video is great! He also has a new album out, "It Started In A Bar"! Hugs from southeast Tennessee!🤗

[@donnawilliams4148]

Anything Dwight does is wonderful. My personal favorite is FAST AS YOU.

[@emmef7970]

Agree with you, I love Dwight's voice, tone, style, etc. Just a cool "dude". I recommend Dwight's cover of Elvis Presley's Suspicious Minds. Nothing like watching Dwight "shake a leg" like Elvis. And, "this may be controversial" I love Dwight's cover more!

[@armywife1641]

One of the most underrated legends in the business

[@lynnglidewell7367]

I didn't know he was underrated. I thought he was a living legend. Not certain what you're on about.

[@debrashockley4106]

Must must also listen to Pocket of a Clown, This Time, Fast as You & Try Not to Look so Pretty...all from this same album...ALL STELLAR!!!!

[@marionsullivan5299]

Check out Suspicious Minds, You're The One, and Fast as You. All great songs!

[@magic8ball1982]

Here's a suggestion. Country music is turning 100 years old on 30 June this year. It would be kind of a cool tribute if you reacted to "Sally Gooden" by Eck Robertson, which was the first commercially produced country song recorded on 30 June 1922

[@connieleighton4375]

Great idea !

[@margaretsimmons1598]

Check out Dwight’s song Guitars, Cadillacs and Hillbilly Music

[@moogarner374]

And please use the video for the song, Dwight Yoakum and Alan Jackson are beautiful in their holey jeans lol

[@markalumbaugh2756]

Agree with Arnold Hancock and his recommendation for "She Wore Red Dresses.. But, he also sings a song in his concerts which. he has never recorded, "I Sang Dixie (while he died)." Powerful stuff

[@jadefire2817]

OMG, YES! "Buenos Nochas from a Lonely Room (She Wore Red Dresses) is one of his best. And you're absolutely right in your estimation that he has one of the best voices in country. Just pulls you in , no matter which song it is.

[@monicaminyard7502]

??? "I Sang Dixie" was definitely recorded!

[@jadefire2817]

@@monicaminyard7502 Yes. It was on "Guitars, Cadillacs, Hilbilly Music "

[@amydawson8949]

“Fast As You” has my favorite line ever in it….. Ahhhhhhh Sookie You will love the song!

[@amydawson8949]

PS- Have you ever seen the movie “SLINGBLADE”? It’s one of my favorite movies EVER and guess who plays the mean, drunk villain (perfectly)… He is great in it!!! You should watch it 😊

[@sheliaspringer7389]

Dwight has a phenomenol song called "HE SANG DIXIE AS HE DIED"! It is a song based on a true story. After he moved to L.A. his brother visited him and they ventured out for a walk down the beach where he lived. This is a song that he wrote about something that really impacted them in a major way! Dwight had moved around while growing up, however he was born in Pikeville, Kentucky. It is drastically different from L.A.! Please play "HE SANG DIXIE". I also like his version of the ELVIS songs "SUSPICIOUS MINDS" and "LITTLE SISTER". He is a huge Elvis Presley fan! These are three of my favorites of his! Thanks so much!

[@catwhisperer9489]

Yeah, I like his version of "Little Sister", too!!

[@ivansavoie3190]

I sang Dixie, pretty sure.

[@sheliaspringer7389]

@@ivansavoie3190 I should have put the title as "I SANG DIXIE"! You are correct, KAREN!!! This is one of my favorite songs and I'm definitely from DEEP in DIXIE!!!

Loved him and that album. Hate that he stopped performing.

[@pinky2245]

This whole album is great, I've had it for years and love it! And Dwight writes most of his own songs.

[@donnamoskowitz4978]

He's still performing. Just smaller venues! Going to see him Feb 28 at Choctaw Casino! Can't wait!!!

[@markraimo1283]

He's still performing. Just not big arenas from what I hear. But he's still performing.

[@kylehern5132]

"Turn it on, Turn it up, Turn Me Loose" by Dwight Yoakam is great if you're looking for a more upbeat song of his (and happens to be my favorite Dwight song)!

[@RowdyRuth]

Love this guy! Great reaction dude! 🌎✌️

[@shooter3083]

I love the channel, as well as your choices in music. I'd love to see you do Dwight's "tribute/eulogy" from the funeral of Buck Owens. Dwight and Buck were very close. You might also consider their duo of "Streets of Bakersfield". Thank you, and keep doing what you're doing.

[@catwhisperer9489]

Aww, I loved Buck Owens---I saw him, live, with Roy Clark, and Minnie Pearl; one of the best shows, ever!!!

[@pamela1977]

I love Dwight Yoakam! I grew up listening to him as my mom loved his music. Two other amazing songs of his is You're the One and The Heart That You Own. Love your reactions 😃😍

[@margaretsimmons1598]

Dwight’s my favorite

[@michellehughes4070]

Great Dwight songs are: "Mr. Johnson's Love" and "Reading, Writing, Route 23" .. For something newer and really different, but still Dwight, try "If I Had A Waterfall"

[@ntracefan]

Oh, you must listen to I sang Dixie

[@margaretsimmons1598]

Guitars, Cadillacs and Hillbilly Music. Streets of Bakersfield.

[@marthacrowley1644]

Dwight is also a good actor. I loved this song. Thanks for reviewing it. I recently saw a performance he did with Chris and Morgan Stapleton..forget what awards show it was on but you can find it on KZbin. I want to request a review, if that's ok. I think you would enjoy Mac Davis song It's Hard To Be Humble

[@pageribe2399]

Glad I checked in because I was going to suggest this song. It's one of my all time favorites. Love the lyrics. Bought Dwight's first record, an EP, and everything since. And, yes, one of the best voices in country music, or anywhere.

[@connieleighton4375]

Totally agree, love me some Dwight and I'm not a big country fan( unless it's classic 50s-70s) this whole album is amazing, but I agree you gotta hear some of his earlier stuff Guitars and Cadillacs is the song that hooked me on his music...♡

[@naomiwarner7117]

Dwight, is a Kentucky native, he was born and raised not to far from where I was born and, raised. I'm a Kentucky native also, born and raised! He is a very great singer/songwriter/Actor. I love all his songs and, movies! We are very proud of him here in Kentucky! A great rabbit hole for you to start on, that's my opinion!

[@Kentuckyfatwhiteboy]

Another amazing singer from eastern Kentucky!!!!

[@planojag595]

"Once there was this spider in my bed, got caught up in her web, of love and lies. She spun her chains around my heart and soul, never to let go, oh but I survived. 'Cause I ain't that lonely yet, no I ain't that lonely yet. After what you put me through oh I ain't that lonely yet. Nothin' left you can do to try and bring me around. 'Cause everything you do just brings me down." God, I love songs like this with lyrics that cut straight through the BS!!

[@craftsbeautyandlife5163]

You can't go wrong with anything he sings but you have to listen to him and Buck Owens doing Streets of Bakersfield.....fun and a great duo.

[@nicoleduke7883]

Guitars Cadillacs, Fast as You, and Streets of Bakersfield!!!

[@carolinasbeauty]

A few months ago, I was going to request "Please Don't Look So Pretty" by Dwight, but I thought that might be a little too country for you. Personally, I love his voice and so I thank you for reacting to this one!

[@jjkcharlie]

This Time is a great album, but you need to check out the old honky tonk stuff. Guitars, Cadillacs, and hillbilly music; and the like.

[@BigJohnLXV]

Dwight definitely had a unique voice

[@miked2445]

Killer track. I welcome myself to your community...

[@larrywilliams5014]

He does have a great country voice. If you haven't yet, you should try "Fast as You." It is off the same album, but more up tempo.

[@trentbobo4171]

There's those that think Dwight has one of the best voices in country music and there's.....that's it. There's just those that think Dwight has one of the best voices in country music

One song you need to react to of Carrie Underwood is a collaboration she did with David Bisbal called Tears of Gold. It is not a country song, just another side of Carrie.

[@cindyphifer970]

So glad you listened to Dwight. I have a lot of cd's by him and they are all great

[@kelleyblanks1231]

Dwight is a musical genius and doesn't get the recognition he deserves. The lyrics are fabulous, but try to just listen to the music. Genius.

[@Judy0910]

I love " I sang Dixie. "

He’s also pretty good actor. My favorite is the mean step dad in Sling Blade.

[@Mostopinionatedmanofalltime]

Dwight is an outstanding actor as well. Check him out in Sling Blade.

[@kelleebowers8525]

Suspicious minds by Dwight is great

[@judydavis7993]

Anything you pick by Dwight is a wonderful choice. Yes he has one of thee very best voices out there. He came to my town 2 years ago and I was able to see him in an outdoor concert and yes he is just as good as he always was. Still has the greatest sound and moves . Always loved his dancing too. A pretty good actor as well.. Loved him in The Panic Room. I agree with the choice of "I Sang Dixie". 🦋🎶💞🦋

[@tomblancett3041]

" I Sang Dixie" one of my favorites from Dwight.

[@gmpet260]

He is fantastic but has been overlooked by many. He lived in LosAngeles and dated a bunch of starlets back when country was still more traditional. He also sang cow punk so gets kind of looked down on. You should react to It only hurts when I cry. The official video is fantastic.

[@shannonlowe3362]

She wore red dress is another I believe is so underrated ❤❤

That sound is called the " Bakersfield sound" also the Buck Owen's sound. Bakersfield is in California high desert.

Try out the Mavericks& the fabulous thunderbirds

[@michaelbeasley5783]

I'm a fan; seen him 3 times live--Incredible. I recommend that whole album, actually--King of Fools is truly catchy and, well, achy at the same time. Fast as you, These Arms, Suspicious Minds (Elvis cover), Things Change--can't go wrong, really

[@jewls9697]

You should also Try the Movie Slingblade! Fantastic movie & Dwight Yokum is in it!!

[@music4music823]

Dwight Yokam... Guitars and Cadillacs, Two Doors Down, Wild Ride, Pocket of a Clown, King of Fools. You are missing some great stuff. Dwight Yokam was popular when Country Dancing was popular. His songs were great dancing songs. Just forget about reacting to him and Enjoy him.

[@ZMtnShadows]

Dwight Yoakam, a great. You should do Buenas Noches From a Lonely Room and Streets of Bakersfield together. Their a great pair. Check out DY Live at Austin City Limits.

[@lynnglidewell7367]

Dwight Yoakam is to Country Music what Honey is to a Bee!

[@heather6668]

Dwight did an album called Dwight Sings Buck - all songs by Buck Owens. Every song is worth checking out on that one. His voice is uinique.

On all my playlists I always set Blink 182 I Miss You right after Ain’t That Lonely Yet.

All this country and you dont have the legend VERN GOSDIN! Two songs by him you must listen to, "chiseled in stone" and "do you believe me now" I promise you 100% u will not regret, chiseled in stone was played at my grandfather's funeral, it's really sad

Since you really love Dwight's vocals and both of his songs so far, please listen to That's Where I Draw the Line (lyric video) by Randy Travis. It's another empowering song like this one but Randy's vocals, you'll love his too!!!

You have to listen to You’re The One, my favorite song by Dwight. He is definitely my favorite Country singer…

[@sisleymichael]

Dwight spent a lot of time with Buck Owens. For the old guys here, Buck was new type of country when he came out in the 60s. Bakersfield Country. If you ever went through or to Bakersfield, it is a rough town, agriculture, oil fields, hard working blue collar folks. Buck developed a style at the time la bit more upbeat from traditional country. Dwight 100% understands Bakersfield country music and really makes it speak to the listener. The voice, the arrangements, all of it.

[@markraimo1283]

I totally agree. Hes got one of the best voices in country music. I could listen to his songs all day honestly. Check out Fast as you, guitars and cadalacs, and Suspicious Minds by Dwight Yoakam also. Great songs.

[@margaretk.302]

I was working relief in a remote town on the Canada/US border. Closest supermarket was 90 miles away, no phone or TV in the motel room. But in the little truck stop, I found this tape "This Time" by DY. Every day after work, I popped the tape in the rental car tape deck and drove around in the middle of nowhere listening. By the time I left the area, I knew every word of every song by heart. Love DY and his music and keeping me sane in the middle of nowhere.

[@TexasMagnolia]

Finally, a Reactor with the good taste to react to Dwight! So much greatness! This Album is in my extensive collection. It’s in my top 5. Highly recommend - every song it top notch!

[@Dpixtion]

Dwight Yoakam and Sharon Stone Had a Short-Lived '90s relationship, she broke it off telling him, “you’ll never make it”.. he wrote this song about her after she came to him wanted to start over once he got his first hit….

[@johndavidson5228]

Thanks for just about anything from Dwight. He's a great actor too. I suggest you check out the Billy Bob Thornton movie "Sling Blade" on your own, if you get the chance; Dwight is the antagonist in it.

[@ginarichards6307]

Thank you. This was fun to watch. This has been one of my favorite songs since it came out. I never get tired of it. The song is just built differently. Something refreshing about it. And the spiderweb lyric is brilliant. Did you know he also acted in a couple of movies? ❤

[@brendaisajiw3417]

He had at least 20 years of Country hits. He's 63 years old, got married a few years ago (first time) and had his first child. Goodness he has such a list of songs to pick from. It's difficult to choose just one. "Fast As You" is a good one, fast paced and "Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room", "I'm A Honkey Tonk Man", "Little Sister", and many more. You can't go wrong with any of them. Thank you for the reaction.

[@markraimo1283]

Also, not only is Dwight Yoakam a really good singer. But hes also a really good actor as well. He plays a really good bad guy. Check out Panic Room if hou havent seen it. Hes in that. The man is talented.

[@micheled6111]

I believe he won an award for this song. The video is not distracting on this one. I would say crazy little thing called love”should be next along with streets of Bakersfield with buck. Don’t forget the “miners prayer” he does as a duet with an old timer bluegrass guy Ralph Stanley.
