FIRST TIME REACTING TO | "Promises" - Randy Travis

[@sandralorenz1796]

This is my favorite song of Randy's.

[@ericwilliams6915]

This is my favorite Randy Travis song just pure traditional country music

[@billlee2194]

Brett, I never thought of him as a heart throb but, of course, I'm a guy. It was his voice. His voice captivated us all. He blew us away. I loved that voice. :)

[@68wolffden]

I've seen Randy in concert 4 times, and can guarantee the women swooned and flocked to him. He is such a great singer and performer and so glad I got to see him as many times as I did

[@daleb1279]

I think Randy Travis was kind of a shy country boy. There is a very cute video of Dolly Parton at the ACM awards one year and she walked up and sat on his lap and flirted with him and then then next year, he was a presenter and came out on stage and Dolly followed him out on stage and said she was just making sure he didn't need her!

[@simonsayla6267]

George was one in a billion. He was my friend as well and I truly miss him. He was a wild man but he never lost touch with where he came from.

[@radarbrew]

Great stuff, welcome to country voice.

[@Tonidolls]

He was in an episode 0f Touch by an Angel...AT Christmas time ept. it was beautiful and he sung the song from it..Soooo beautiful..I can't remember it..

[@emeryolmstead4642]

You are beautiful and I love the way your facial expressions match mine while listening to a song. Toy must feel music like I do and this is the first time I've witnessed this. Thank you!

[@NickVinhas-rg4xx]

I love randy, he is a very cute country boy, you should react to deeper than the holler, it's just perfect

[@deploribusrex4480]

LOL, so cool to see you both control Randy and appreciate him.

[@1965Grit]

This song is about mens worst fears, while we want to fulfill these promises, we fear that it will never be enough, and she will still leave, even though, we've given all we have to give!!

[@pennyyoung3166]

Love randy

[@brittreacts]

he's great!

[@matthewdooley7855]

Smooth like butter.

Randy Travis... "Forever and Ever, Amen"... Official video will definitely live up to, and reinforce your vision of Randy... You loved the live version when you reacted to it, and you will love the video too...

[@dworstell8599]

❤’d your reaction! Another good Randy Travis song that’s a little more uptempo but still pants a beautiful picture is “Look Heart, No Hands”. Worth a listen. 🤟🏻

[@brittreacts]

Glad you enjoyed it! I will keep your suggestion in mind, thanks!

[@LALMCGatorsfan]

I've heard the lie of you can fall out of love with someone. No if you can fall out of love than you were never in love! REAL LOVE IS FOREVER. My dad has been dead since August 13th 2021 and my mom still says his name everyday and how much she misses him.

[@peterbeard9000]

I think the first part of the song was written so politely that you may have missed the meaning. Cheap perfume, pretty faces, Fallen angels (think strippers) fill the places, He is going to bars and strip clubs to talk to other women and paying for their affections while his wife is home in bed crying. He is making “token promises” (empty/unkept) that he will stop going to the strip clubs for affection and come home to her. She realizes he will never change and she leaves him.

[@NYATLChris]

OMG you are so BEAUTIFUL. Your next reaction should be James Blount You're beautiful since he wrote the song about you.

[@brittreacts]

thank you! i will keep it in mind!

[@NYATLChris]

@BrittReacts thank you for your response. Queen. I am also going to recommend. You're a god by vertical horizon. Another song written about you.

[@jamesrichardson3322]

Randy Bruce Traywick was born on May 4, 1959 in Marysville, North Carolina. He is a Gospel singer and country music, he was married to his business agent Elizabeth Hatcher 1991-2010, and second wife Mary Davis. In 2012 he was arrested for being drunk , crashing his car and passed out naked on a highway in Texas. He also had an additional charge of terrorist threats of police State Troopers. He was let on bail of $ 21,500, and he was arrested again the same night for trying to buy a pack of cigarettes in a 🐅 Tiger Mart Conventions Store, while naked, he demanded to serve him. He realized he didn't have money to pay for it. In 2013 Travis pleaded guilty to driving drunk on the August 7 incident and received two years probation and a $2,0000 💵 dollars fine. His marriage ended two years ago, and his career was on a downward spiral, he was falling apart. Caused these incidents!! It's extremely heartbreaking and sad. 2013 he was hospitalized for viral cardiomyopathy, and had a stroke, he lost his voice. He was hospitalized again for aphasia, after his stroke he relearned walk short distances without a cane play guitar 🎸 again. He remarried in 2015. Promises was released on May 29,1989 . It was written by Randy Travis and John Lindley.

[@rhondamcbath6279]

Randy had it so hard, he met up with an older woman that heard and discovered him, I guess some type of music agent, and she did everything, set up the studio and band and had him cut some demos. This is the short version and I'm not sure of every detail, but I do know this, she knew when she first discovered him singing, that a gold mine was standing there before her eyes, (I mean come-on, it's Randy Travis, and although very young and definitely inexperienced his voice was always Golden!!) After cutting these demos, this gal pounded the streets and radio stations as well as sent every record label to hear this amazing young artist that was clearly was mega star material..after all the work out in by this woman finally a label did call them and the rest is history right? Not so fast 😐. From the beginning, Randy and this woman were intimate, I truly believe that Randy's intentions were always upfront they both agreed and that his main objective was to become a music artist, and hers was to help and promote him, and when all was said and done they'd both be wealthy. After a couple years and Randy established he wanted to cut ties with this woman and was offered a better record label contract and he was never in love with this woman wanted to move forward on his own and with his life. All hell broke loose when he talked to her about them going their separate ways and this woman had more than enough 💰 to get her in a great life style forever if she wanted. She said to him, NOT SO FAST BUSTER, We are a sealed deal!! He said no, we helped each other, you don't love me & visa versa! She said and meant every word, that she'd not only sue his ass for every cent he had, but would destroy his career, and she knew exactly how to do it! Scared the crap outta Randy believing that she could and would do just that! It was settled right then and there, and she told him they were getting married right away! They were married, for many many years over 10+ more. Talk about miserable, they didn't sleep together but out in public she made sure to make them look really in love, and all Randy could do was grin and bare it. Finally after a show he went to have coffee not exactly sure, so I'm only assuming here, but his current wife today was introduced to Randy, he ask her to sit and visit for a bit. He told her everything, she told him that the woman was breaking the law by blackmail, threat of ruining him, she told him that she had a lawyer friend and if he'd like to talk with him? Sure did, although still afraid of what would ultimately happen to his career. This lawyer was so damn good that he told Randy to just keep their meeting to himself, and he'd take care of the rest...By the time Randy's lawyer got through with this greedy no good woman, she was gladly willing to finally walk away or spend a good length of time behind bars and completely broke!! You can go on utube Britt and check out the story yourself, really good stuff lol...

[@Gutslinger]

He also did a beautiful performance of "Amazing Grace" at George Jones' funeral. That was sadly just 2 months before he suffered the stroke that rendered him unable to sing.

[@brittreacts]

that is so sad, I'm sorry to hear that

[@dsusan17]

What a wonderful song. Great reaction Brit!

[@brittreacts]

thank you!

[@TerryDunbar-i7s]

Britt you have to listen to Randy Travis do 1982.

[@justabaker5609]

Kind suggestion: "Humble and Kind" Tim McGraw "This Ain't Nothin". Craig Morgan

[@brittreacts]

I will keep those in mind, thanks!

[@bobblynes3926]

Please react to "1984" by Randy. Sadly, he suffered a stroke @5 years ago and cannot sing anymore. Great legacy lives on! Bobb(Old Time Radio) Lynes

[@brittreacts]

I will keep it in mind, thanks!

[@Gutslinger]

I love the creative writing of the opening lyric "Sweet perfume and painted faces, fallen angels fill the places, where I go when my troubles pull me down." In my mind, I interpret it as being a strip joint. But it could simply just be a bar of some kind.. To those who aren't familiar with the Bible, "fallen angels" aren't a good thing. And it's ironic that some people use that as a pickup line, when they ask someone if they fell from heaven.

[@davidhale4647]

Songs for you to hear by the Malpass Brothers ( just suppose )(ole whats her name ) and ( second time around ).

[@you2449]

This one was sad enough already, but he Reeeally slowed this one down from the original. If you like the "speaking voice" you should check out It's Just A Matter Of Time. Then you'll completely belive he's a Heartthrob! (although, to be fair - - he's more of a beloved icon and legend, than heartthrob )

[@Gutslinger]

I remember you saying young George Jones looks like Woody. Lol Ironically, my grandpa who recently passed sounded and looked like Randy in the face, and my grandpa's son (my dad) kinda has some facial similarities to George Jones. They even wear the same style shirts, which makes them look even more reminiscent.

[@quintondees4501]

Only one Randy Travis

[@musik102]

It's funny that you should mention Randy's "country twang" because it took him quite a while to get a record deal back in the 1980s because record companies said that he was too country with the "twang". However, when he did get a deal and then released his first hit album he was embraced by the whole country community who saw him as the saviour of "real" country music. BTW, don't forget to check out Brad Paisley. He's great...and, if you like deep voices, listen to Josh Turner.

[@JJ_LovesMusic]

Britt, I have a special song I think you will love. It's called racing the dark by Alan Jackson. Alan Jacksons daughter who is in her late 20s wrote this song after her husband died and song was released last year and it's a very beautiful song.

[@stefanpolichetti2277]

Brit, if your digging the country a must rabbit hole is Kris Kristofferson, one of the greatest songwriters; up there with Dillon, Prine, etc. start with duets with Rita Coolidge live, will not disappoint!

Hi, I'm a little out of topic, but I follow you for a few days now, and was wondering if you react to instrumental only too ? To precise my though I am thingink to a young french virtuoso guitarist called "Tina S", but maybe you already know her

I will keep it in mind, thanks!

​@@brittreacts oh cool thank you. Tina has quit KZbin a few years ago but she has left online some of her videos. As today they have a total of more than 200 millions of views all combined 😉🤘

[@jomamackdaddy]

How bout listening to the entire song before you make stupid comments. The answer is in the lyrics.

[@rhondamcbath6279]

You've already reacted to Randy's song forever and ever amen. If you want to hear another great song it's: ((This is Me, Your not talking to!!)) He's got loads of commercial songs, as I call them, way over played!! We've all heard them over a 100 times, well us when he first came out....which is in the 100's of Thousands or more. His real talent is his B side songs....just saying 🤗🤗🤗
