FIRST TIME REACTING TO | Charley Pride "Is Anybody Going to San Antone"

[@Biggems9274]

This has always been my favorite CP song cause it included the greatest city ever, San Antone.

[@johnniekight1879]

"Just Between You And Me" is another big hit by him. His version of Hank Williams "Kaw-Liga" is a delight.

[@robertbeckler5058]

Yep sister won a talent show in grade school singing that song.

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

Also "Family of Man," which was the opener of the movie "Sometimes A Great Notion" based on the book by Ken Keesey.

[@debibailey2968]

Kawliga is definitely one of Charlie's to react to!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@RandyBrady2024]

Charlie Pride is beyond iconic. His music was so great. Charlie has a tremendous sense of humor. This is another artist I grew up on.

[@pamagnolia]

He is one of the greats of country music. Such a pleasant performer

[@Almcingrid3663]

"Crystal Chandelier" is an awesome song. And "Kawliga" and "Snakes Crawl At Night".

[@quintondees4501]

I grew up listening to Charlie and other true legends, there is no way you can't be a country fan, after experiencing Charlie Pride!!!

[@ChubbaWubba169]

I used to work security at a large music venue, Charlie Pride was the real deal. He was everything you think he is, kind, warm and funny just a great guy who when show was over shook hands with everyone who made things happen. Total class act probably the most down to earth gentleman going.

[@kimking6036]

Charlie is a part of the heart of country music. You couldn't help but love this man❤

[@LaptopLarry330]

Two more Charlie Pride songs that you might want to react to, are “All I Have To Offer You Is Me” and “Does My Ring Hurt Your Finger?”.

[@quintondees4501]

"roll on Mississippi" is a nice one as well

[@isg01010]

My favorite Charley Pride song is “Roll On Mississippi”. It’s a relaxing song, reminds me of my Mississippi River delta hometown

[@YBarboMike]

When I was 6 he came to a department store in town to sell and sign his records, I was already a big fan. He called me up and I sat in his lap while he signed mine. Really nice man.

[@charlesspencer1747]

Charley was one of the best country singers. Love all his music---for over 50 years.

[@edford1693]

"(You're My) Jamaica", "Mountain of Love", "Kaw-Liga", "Burgers and Fries", "Chrystal Chandelier", "Roll On Mississippi", "All I Have To Offer You (Is Me)", "Just Between You and Me" just to name a few more of Charley's hits. My mom has nearly all of Charley's records and tapes. 👍👍

[@chuckcole9449]

You should watch Loretta Lynn give him the living legend award , tells his life story. What a legend.

[@buckinjb]

I saw Charlie Pride at the Houston Rodeo in the Astrodome, geeezzz 1975-76 (me 13,14) with my neighbor, Hispanic family - mom, her sister (?), and a couple of little kids. Ray-ray was my little brown brother. I was the families little white boy. Gosh....I miss the simple and get along with everyone days. Don't you?

[@ydqpljn]

You would like Charlies rendition of Hank Williams "Kaw-Liga". Charley Frank Pride was an American singer, guitarist, and professional baseball player. Beginning his career as a Negro league baseball player in the early-1950s, he later pursued a career in country music, becoming the genre's first major black superstar. Wikipedia Born: March 18, 1934, Sledge, MS Died: December 12, 2020 (age 86 years), Dallas, TX Nationality: American Children: Tyler Pride, Dion Pride Spouse: Rozene Cohran (m. 1956-2020)

[@jamesanthony5257]

Fun fact: Charley Pride was the 1st artist who broke the 'no touring' ban in Northern Ireland during the Troubles and as a result, he won fans on both the Catholic and Protestant sides. He became emotional and began crying while singing 'Crystal Chandeliers' because of the risk the crowd took to come to watch him.

[@llschnitz]

“All I Have to Offer You is Me” is a classic by Charlie Pride. Also “Roll on Mississippi”.

[@paulschirf9259]

Growing up I knew a lot of my extended family was racists, but my parents always had friends of color. Late '70s, I'm a little kid in line for HOURS with my family for first-come/first-server tickets to the Grand Ole Opry, the Country Music Mecca in Nashville Tennessee. My rural Pennsylvania grandparents were with us. Havoc broke out when a kid even younger than me came out of a bar a block from our location (at the front of the line) and started shouting "Charlie Pride is in here! Charlie Pride is here!" I'd never seen my grandfather run before. The picture of him with his arm around Charlie Pride, both men smiling like they'd been best friends for years, was on his living room wall for the rest of his life. It had an impact on me and I'm sure it helped some of my family move in the right direction.

[@philipstoddard1502]

Love some Charlie Pride, especially his cover Charlie Rich's The Most Beautiful Girl in the World. Rich's performance was great and Pride's cover is just as worthy. Great reason to make some room for a few country tunes on the playlist.

[@gingermarion874]

You want to hear some Charlie Pride vocal gymnastics, check out his live version of Kawliga. It is amazing!

[@bravepa.9538]

Kaw-Liga is a must.

[@beappleby]

Someone you haven't heard is Sammy Kershaw - he has a song with a similar theme, "Anywhere but here". Also love "Ain't nothing wrong with the radio" and "National Working Woman's Holiday "!

[@hillbillydan4721]

Hey Mrs.Britt, I'm in agreement with Kaw-liga as your next reaction from Mr. Charlie Pride ! Yes Ma'am, as usual you absolutely nailed this one !! Keep on smiling !

[@martyfrazer5312]

This TV show is Country Family Reunion. They gathered together all the greats of country music past and sang their classic songs and told lots of funny "on the road" stories on each other.

[@robertbeckler5058]

Huge fan, man was born to sing western music.

[@davidcohen7146]

@Britt- One of my fav Charlie Pride songs with this one. Absolutely loved him. One of the all time great singers.

[@rod2459]

One of the greatest of all time! Not just a great singer; Charley Pride was a great man who was successful in many things. He played professionally in the Negro Leagues, had a tryout with the California Angels, and became a part owner of the Texas Rangers. Saw him concert the year before he passed front row center. What a treat.

[@williamparrish9954]

hey britt you should react too Toby Keith he passed away yesterday he was one of great county singers

[@Rareed63]

I love Charley Pride songs of his you must react to "Wonder could I live there Anymore" "I'm just Me" "Just for the Love of it" "I ain't all Bad" "Where do I put her Memory" are just a few great ones

[@halcundiff6886]

You saw him in Forever Country, you did not know who he was back then. Rewatch it you will see him.

[@robertscherer963]

Britt, love the look on your face when you listen to the Master of old. Everyone in that circle are the biggest names of yester year. All are country music legends. Many of those faces are now singing in the choir, and not on a stage anymore. RIP, and thanks for the years of great country music!

[@patbrewer4205]

Charlie was one of our greatest singers and storytellers , He was out mowing his yard in a very exclusive neighborhood in Dallas once and a man stopped and asked him how much he charged to mow a yard not realizing who he was

[@slkinia]

And Charley answered him saying he didn't charge anything, but he was sleeping with the woman of the house! The guy left.

[@Mark_MOORE_VFL]

Sing Britt sing ❤

[@williamwemken601]

Charlie Pride---the Snakes Crawl at Night

[@garygoodman4342]

I believe you would love his song You're So Good (When You're Bad)

[@tjtampa214]

The Gaither Vocal Band had a TV show and this one Country Family Reunion I guess - as you said - probably were very similar. I did not have cable TV when I was younger nor when I was older. So I missed a lot of TV shows. But I do know that they would often have incredible talent in their own show members but also have many great guests. I was so excited that you played this song. I love him, Charley Pride. Unfortunately he was a bit laxidasical here because he was allowing the family to sing along (bc they love him too and can't help but sing along on his songs!). That little ditty thing he did where people laughed is bc a certain guitar riff that is so iconic (for that time period) and is integral to the song... it was missing.. bc the house band was playing or whatever system they had going. I mean it's the little things that can make big differences. I just loved every mi'nute thing about his voice, the notes, the story, the performance and his big smile and tender ways. You know what I'm talking about! Haha. Thx B! 💜✌🎵

[@1001Hobbies]

Find some PICTURES of Charlie when he was a young guy. He was a sharp looking man with a million dollar smile.

[@KylinNicole11]

Have you ever thought to react to Jessie J? Specifically her time on The Singer which is a Chinese singing competition. She sings Celine Dion, Prince, and Whitney as well as many others. I’ve always thought Jessie was an underrated singer, and her time on that show solidified how amazing she truly is.

[@Gutslinger]

Please check him out performing in his prime. His voice was golden.

[@randylantz7951]

My parents used to listen to his albums when I was a kid. My favorite song is Kawliga. It's about a wooden Indian statue.

[@jackspadeproductions6195]

Charlie pride is a legend Kiss an angel good morning Roll on Mississippi is a good one too

[@ronniecampbell4375]

A lot of legends on that set !!!!

[@scottangel6462]

My parents saw him in concert back in the early 70's. The concert they said ppl reacted to him like they did with Elvis!! They claimed the crowd went crazy over him. I remember listening to his music when I was a kid then and loved it!! Crystal Chandeliers is another good song of his.

[@kushielrm]

Kawliga by Charlie will make all your dreams come true!

[@mitchellwaters0706]

Charley was..and is..THE MAN...love charley pride..damn..great up on it ..and miss his music..cause they don't play it no more..so so much..classic...72 year old former marine from south carolina

[@curtismarsh4528]

Charlie was stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado in the Army. I spent a few days at Carson myself. He played minor-league professional baseball. He is truly an American Icon. His Mississippi cotton-picking delta town, Does My Ring Hurt Your Finger, and Crystal Chandeliers, are pure country gold.

[@rwarner06b03d]

In what could be considered a sequel to this song I highly recommend "Thank God and Greyhound" by Roy Clark

[@JackPeters-yk9wg]

I bought t this alblum when i was a kid..love charlie pride

[@llschnitz]

Glen Camp ell and Roy Clark and Willie Nelson and Ray Stevens were in that audience as wellas other Greats.

[@Tom-lc3ng]

I love this song, it takes me back to my childhood... getting ready for school and this song playing on the local country station, my Grandmother fixing breakfast...the good old days

[@jeremyfagner6808]

I love his cover of the Hank Williams song Kaw Liga. Think I spelled that right. Love your reactions

[@GenXTex]

I grew up listening to the Texas Tornados version. Flaco’s accordion playing made everything sound better. Sahm, Jimenez, and Meyers are/were are from San Antonio. Fender was from San Benito, TX.

[@codyclaeys2008]

He always got good songs does your ring hurt your hand is a good one

[@BoxerRick]

God bless ya for this Britt. This is the kind of music I listen to on my jobsite. If you think this was something great, check out " Mountain of Love " I think it's his best. I love to see that spark. Charlie was really a special guy. Justgood people and a great singer.

[@Mercenaries3]

Charlie Pride is the best. If you get time you should listen to Roll on Mississippi and Amy’s Eyes.

[@redtick79]

This is a Country Family reunion show. All of the people around him are country legends themselves.

[@66zoot]

Charley

[@BigBuffGuy1]

the song i have been trying to get you to react is called crying for me its a tribute to toby keiths good friend, toby passed away yesterday

[@62impalaconvert]

Britt, if you are not careful you will become an old time country music fan!

[@somecajunguy]

When I was little I played my Charlie Pride 8 track til the tape popped.

[@joewiley62]

Charlie c would put on a show.... What a Legend....

[@jamescumbo1928]

Britt he was the first concert I got to see. My parents took me when I was a kid. What a performance.

[@rhondadananay2106]

Charlie Pride was my sisters favorite country singer!

[@Reviresco2]

A lot of legends sitting in that crowd.

[@llschnitz]

“All I Have To Offer You is Me” and “Roll on Mississippi”.

[@isebmazo2140]

Charlie is the Australian way, but it's actually, Charley.. Charley has some great music, which sounds even better when he sang it in his younger days.. Hopefully u will soon hear some of those great tunes..😂

[@michaelhart2539]

With the passing of Toby Keith, it seems an appropriate time to react to his song “Cryin for Me.” It’s a tribute to a friend of his who died from…..cancer.

[@llschnitz]

This clip is from the Exact same show as the one with “Gentle on My Mind”played by Glen Campbell with the extended guitar break. It was on RFD Network, and was called “Country Family Reunion”. The audience is full of huge Country stars.

[@sandralorenz1796]

This is Country Family Reunion. You need to watch them. A lot of singers you will see are no longer with us. It's an education.

[@tammyhicks1450]

I heard this song a lot when I was a child and loved the beat and his voice but did not know the lyrics until today!Priceless!

[@mikejenkins1972]

Again a very sweet reaction. :) One of the first songs, I ever heard by Charley was "Roll on Mississippi", and it's still one of my favorites. :)

[@Stormfront94]

Billy Joel just released his first single since 1993 called "Turn the lights back on" can you do a reaction to that one? You will love it!!

[@colinpon5260]

Love your reactions and love that you're reacting to one of the all time greats- Charley Pride! Please react to a young Charley performing "Just Between You and Me" on the Lawrence Welk show- Charley is such a gentleman and it's a magical performance!

[@edolson2004]

If you can find the time you should do a deep dive into Charlie Pride the man. There's a whole lot more to him than just ther music.

[@greg7129]

Maybe my favorite Charlie Pride song. Meant to tell you before, he could have been a major league baseball player. I cannot remember the details but I believe it was with the Twins. I am glad he chose to be a singer lol.

[@iancremmins4727]

i wish you could some when he is young, his voice is much stronger and distinct, the pace of this song is faster too

[@kevindunn5650]

Charlie was pure country

[@jimcrawford3221]

The show looks like one my mom watches on RFD-TV that showcases older performers, Larry's Country Diner. She also watches the Marty Stewart Show on that channel.

[@skygazer858]

Back from when Country and Western was real. Now it's just twang pop.

[@randytorres8211]

Charlie's song great but my favorite is the Texas Tornados cover of ths song

[@Tr1hawaii]

The sound of my youth…❤

[@thomaspare9538]

Listen to the snakes crawl at night and Chrystal chandeliers

[@marklavor6618]

Great song Britt

[@JDHall-b1r]

Britt we all lost a legend today with the passing of Toby Keith in his memory could you react to his song Can't go Back I think you will enjoy it

[@TheBeatenPaths]

That room is full of music legends!!

[@ArlynMeylan-jo7hq]

Oh thank you Britt i remembered this from i was a youngen😊

[@mrcurtis73]

lol.. this reaction reminded me of a couple of songs I heard John Schneider (Bo Duke from the Dukes of Hazzard) sing. One was called Angels Like Her. The other song is called Wherever She Is. 😊

[@richardkelley9224]

Check out Charlie Pride doing Kaw-Liga

[@SomeRandomOldFatGuy]

Thank you for doing more of this man!

[@brittreacts]

Sure thing!

[@Birdog62]

Does my ring hurt your finger, is another great one

[@62impalaconvert]

I watched Kiss An Angel Good Mornin" with you.

[@Hemi12go]

Loved it! Can't wait to see some Roger Miller reactions!

[@mikerobertson4041]

That Mississippi Man could sing!

[@calebmorrow96]

You've gotta check out Roll on Mississippi by him.

[@angieday5183]

u should find one where he is younger. some videos of him on the Johnny Cash show are out there

[@dsusan17]

Kaw-liga is great! Great reaction Britt

[@brittreacts]

Thank you!

[@TheotheHusky]

Hey Britt you should do another Toby Keith song in dedication, he passed away last night at 62 of cancer
