CODY JOHNSON & REBA MCENTIRE “DEAR RODEO” REACTION

[@marybaillie8907]

Cody's song "Til You Can't " just grabs at every emotion in your body. His voice is hypnotic and absolutely is drenched in country. 👢👢👢 Beautiful duet with Reba. Absolutely stunning harmonies together. Great reaction Craig. Glad your videos are coming through fine. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@aletmartins6940]

Amazing song!

[@lindabrewer3243]

"Til You Can't"....a MUST reaction!!

[@corycody6967]

Former bull rider. I “retired” after I broke my face in 2002. Cody is my favorite. I jumped down his rabbit hole after I heard Til You Can’t.

[@firequeen2194]

Love this! I believe Reba was “discovered” at the rodeo when she sang the national anthem. 😍. She was a barrel racer.

[@erintafoya9250]

This song was a love letter to rodeo for both of them 🥰 he was a bull rider and she barrel raced in their younger days. This is why he’s a favorite …he is a true cowboy !

[@daleb1279]

Cody is one of the best younger male country artists, so many of them sound alike, but his voice is very distinctive and rich. I am sure he and Reba bonded over the rodeo and horses and their voices together are great.

[@kellystogner100]

Have you watched the documentary named after this song?

[@howrued1500]

His acoustic cover of Reba’s ‘Whoever’s In New England’ is simply stunning!!❤️ A great biopic film about rodeo- ‘8 Seconds’. Love this song; feel like rodeo can be analogous to so many different things to so many of us. As always- wonderful, thoughtful reaction. Stay safe & love much💖

[@jessicasteele8115]

Til you can't is a great song by him you will love it. And yes if you ever get a chance to see a rodeo do it! I grew up in a small town and when the rodeo came to town it was like Christmas. I never competed but go every chance I get. Love your channel. Watching you react to some of the people I grew up listening to has been so much fun and brought back so many good memories Thank you for sharing this journey.

[@shawnmazyn7090]

The rodeo at the end was our Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo I have mentioned before. The Rodeo is going on now here in Houston and Cody has a night he is scheduled to perform. He wrote Dear Rodeo to perform at our event years ago and it is a very treasured memory to him. You can look up our Rodeo and find a lot of information on it. Even Elvis played at the Rodeo in the very early years. Cody is a Texas Gem and his music is exceptional. "TIL YMyou can't ", "Norhin' on you", "On my wat to you" are all great. Can't go wrong with Cody or as we call him CoJo ♡

[@vanazam3588]

Not only did he write that song for the Rodeo, he also specifically wrote "Welcome to the Show" for the start of the actual show

[@carolcliff5150]

Houston rodeos, especially with Elvis as an event - very happy memories

[@mocharmed]

Reba makes everything amazing

[@TexasMagnolia]

My Daddy was an “All Around Cowboy”, meaning he competed in all. His career ended after being gorged by a bull. I was a Barrel Racer for a long time. You never lose the passion and the love for it. Look for: The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. It is magical….It’s starts in February and runs through March. Not just a rodeo, but a live performance every night.

[@bobbienielsen6860]

This is my first time hearing this one too. I can feel this one. Soo deep and good!

[@teresahall6048]

Till you can't is a fantastic song by him.

[@Leah-cn5cu]

Best song ever!!!!

[@KittCrescendo]

I would’ve loved to see some Reba from her barrel racing days.

[@LisafromFL]

Please react to Cody Johnson "Til u can't".Amazing song, amazing artist!

[@sheilaakridge4944]

Til You Can’t and Human are a couple of Cody’s amazing songs.

[@samanthapatterson813]

Also on the rodeo theme, "July in Cheyenne" by Aaron Watson, and "One Ride in Vegas" by Deryl Dodd. I grew up in a rodeo area, and even though I only showed horses, it's a powerful adrenaline rush to go into an arena and show what you and 2,000 lbs. with a mind and heart of its own can do.

[@angiebeckner3901]

Reba was a barrel racer at rodeos in her early years. She always said she loved it. As always enjoyed your reaction. Love from West Virginia! 👏🏼👍

[@donna865]

I've heard him say in interviews that he wrote this song more or less as therapy; he started bull riding along with several friends and began to see them having more success and himself not being good enough to be top tier. He decided to focus more on music but still felt bitter about his rodeo career ending and this was a way to start to get past it and say goodbye. Considering here he is now singing with Reba, yeah, I think he did OK. :) I know you'd love Cody's song "'Til You Can't" and would recommend that for your next one by him.

[@donna865]

And I meant to add - last year Cody played opening night at the Houston Rodeo and had the 3rd highest opening night attendance after Garth Brooks and George Strait!

[@aletmartins6940]

I think Reba also participated when she was young, and was discovered there.

[@elainevigil6128]

What an amazing song and duet. I had no idea Reba was in the Rodeo when she was younger. Cool vintage to see. I do not know any songs...yet, from Cody, but am looking forward to taking this journey with you and all of your subscribers. Thank you for your reaction Craig. Wishing you a good rest of your day/night.

[@tracyjones5156]

I love this song. I rodeoed from the time I was 6 till I got married. Barrels and pole bending were the events I did the most. My dad team roped and my brothers team roped and rode bulls. Keep up the reactions your awesome.

[@HammersYT]

Thank you for reacting to this as it is one of my personal favorites. His voice is compelling and captivating. On a side note I really appreciate and enjoy your reactions, they are done the way they should be done. Simple, honest and to the point. Have followed you for a long time now.

[@joannaaguilar4961]

Thank you Craig for reacting to the song dear rodeo by Cody Johnson and Reba mcentire

[@edithdavis2848]

Reba use to barrel race in the rodeos. He's one of the lucky ones to be able to get away in one piece . They use to afew years back but not that I know of. Go to the Cheyenne Rodeo, in Wyoming.

[@bartonbagnes4605]

A beautiful tribute to a piece of Americana. Great vocals. You can definitely watch Rodeo footage on KZbin, maybe even a livestream.

[@trishharrison3618]

Just awesome, that's all i can say is awesome. You need to listen to Cody Johnson til you can't it is also awesome 🙂

[@CCMoore1]

Hi Craig, I am a new subscriber and loving your reactions! Cody Johnson is amazing. You should definitely check out his song 'Til You Can't. You won't be disappointed.

[@lindabrewer3243]

Cody, Wyoming has a great rodeo in July of every year. I visited Cody, Wyoming for the first time last year. Great town!!

[@Nohandletoday561]

Really enjoy your reactions and love of American country music. It is the absolute best (my opinion). You are welcome here any time!

[@markalumbaugh2756]

So, Chris Ledoux was a World Champion Bronc Rider before his Singer/Song Writer Career. Garth Brooks mentioned him in the song "Damned Old Rodeo". Garth even volunteered as an organ donor for Chris Ladoux. Chris has a song, "The Ride" that was never a huge hit, but my favorite. A lifes lesson sort of. "Sit tall in the saddle and hold your head up high....and live like you ain't afraid to die. Don't be scared just enjoy the ride"

[@mattbrentlinger1078]

That echo in the beginning is exactly what it sounds like in a rodeo arena when the MC is talking…for me it was Clem McSpaden for about 40 years.

[@itswomanswork553]

I did not personally ride in the rodeo, but I grew up with it. My mom was a barrel racer, my dad was team roper, and my uncle was bull rider. So we went all the time. My Grandpa even breed horse, and trained horse for barrel, and roping. Even now I still got friends tour, and I go any chance I get.

[@stacy4823]

The Wrangler National Finals Rodeo runs for 10 days in early December every year and it is televised, perhaps you could catch that.

[@robinmentzer7974]

I hadn't heard this song before or seen this video. It was a great duet, thanks so much for sharing. I am enjoying your reactions along your country music journey. Still so many, many great ones to go. Don't know if you have John Berry on your list but he has an incredible voice with so many great songs, She's Taken a Shine; Faithfully; Change my mind; Your love Amazes Me; Livin on Love; He Doesn't Even Know Her; I Will if You Will; Standing on the Edge of Goodbye. He is definitely worth listening to and I think you would really enjoy him as well. Also don't know if you have Chris Stapleton's song Joy of My Life on your list, another great Chris song.

[@magenta6512]

The new video format is great!

[@TexasMagnolia]

A Cowboy and A Cowgirl. Yes, Reba was on the rodeo circuit as well. If she hadn’t, I don’t think this song would have been as powerful as it is. Craig, it would be great to see you react to Reba in the 80’s - One Promise Too Late.

[@redstateforever]

I grew up in a small town in Oklahoma, we had LITERALLY one stoplight. No McDonalds, no Walmart, one real grocery store. But we had a rodeo arena, and a real rodeo every year, lol. Priorities.

[@jwmson7791]

Not to take anything away from Reba, she’s truly a national treasure, but CJ’s acoustic version of this is what’s on my playlist. His voice mesmerizes me. Btw, both Reba and Cody both rodeod when they were younger. Cody’s from East Texas and Reba’s from Oklahoma. ♥️ If you ever get to the States you gotta catch one. Cheyenne Frontier Days in Wyoming, Rodeo Houston in Houston TX, and then the Calgary Stampede in BC are three of the yearly monster rodeos.

[@timwicke2836]

This is how country songs should be

[@firefighterchick]

This is new to me. Of course, adding Reba to any song is brilliant. Im.not too familiar with Cody's work as well. Rodeo bull riders are a different kind of crazy. I wish I could have seen Reba in her rodeo riding days. Im.not sure about live TV but there are quite a few KZbin videos of worst wrecks, championship rides, etc.

[@kellystogner100]

And the documentary about Cody's life called Dear Rodeo is amazing!

[@donnamoskowitz4978]

Always love your reactions but IMO this reaction is the best by far!!! PRCA (Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association) is televised in the USA so you should have access to it! Reba is a wonderful artist and she helps aspiring talented artists! Love this song being a Texas country girl. Thanks for sharing!!!💞💞💞

[@karenosborne5700]

❤❤❤

[@monicapresslee3175]

You should check out the Calgary Stampede. In Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 Takes place in July. A good time to visit this part of the world, with nice weather.

[@kellystogner100]

If possible watch the documentary about his life on streaming called Dear Rodeo. And if you haven't heard his song, Til you can't, you will love it.

[@fernlintner65]

Have you done am I the only one? It’s awesome I live in colordo springs by the way lol😊

[@kimking6036]

Do y'all have rodeos there? Reba has a song with Brooke's and Dunn called Cowgirls don't cry. This song was new for me and I loved it

[@ljjones2464]

Would love to see a reaction to Aaron Watson July in Cheyenne. It touches on the other side of the rodeo. So hope you make it to Texas and catch one of our rodeos.

[@nataliebehrnes6464]

Please listen to "Til You Can't"

[@rustycook729]

Please please please react to Never Go Home Again by Cody. Please please please.

[@Captainperfection]

I know i keep asking but can you react to Hey Cowboy by Autumn Brooke
