Her song "The Pill" was so empowering commentary for women that many radio stations banned it. RIP to the OG Country Queen.

Two absolutely amazing women. Loretta, with that sweet smile on her face, was a complete badass who sang the realities of her life. Many of her songs, like "The Pill", were banned by country radio stations because of that. And Dolly, whip-smart businesswoman & incredibly talented singer/songwriter. It's a joy to see them together.

Lorettie, as her parents called her wrote many of her songs from her life experiences. Married to Doolittle Lynn and a mother multi times over she grew up hard and quick. She was the oldest child. Dolly grew up poor in Tennessee while Loretta grew up in Kentucky in coal town. After making it big in Nashville, she became friends with Patsy Cline and was pregnant with twin girls when Patsy was killed in the plane crash and named one of those twins after Patsy. She is also the older half sister of Crystal Gayle, a country star (Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue).

I don't see any reactors react to Barbara Mandrell. She had a tv show with her sisters when I was a child and I loved her so much. I wish that someone would react to her. My favorite song by her was "If loving you is wrong" and then there is also "I was country when country wasn't cool". So if you want to react to another great female country artist from the past, she would be a good one. She gets overlooked even though she was one of the biggest country music stars in the 70s and early 80s. She had a tragic car accident in 1984 and that is when her career suffered. I love your channel. Thank you for the great reactions.

RATED X was one of many Loretta Lynn songs that were banned from radio play, but still hit the top of the charts based on sales. It's about how divorced women were seen in the late 60s/early 70s. Loretta never stopped writing and recording, and toured until she was in her late 80s. When she died, she still had 3,000 songs written that she hadn't recorded, and was in the middle of a 5 album deal. Coal Miner's Daughter was the first movie to be made about a female country music artist's life, and was based off her autobiography Coal Miner's Daughter. She had a 60 year career, with many firsts for women, and was the most awarded female country music artist. Her motto was "Don't quit. Keep working. Never retire."...and she didn't. You can get a better understanding of her by watching 60 Minutes Uncut Loretta Lynn. Mike Wallace spends time with Loretta on tour.
