Kenny Rogers "Lady" REACTION Video | first time hearing this song

[@patswanson2870]

I went to a Kenny Rogers concert in the 80's and the opening act was the Righteous Brothers. What a great concert!

[@generationgapreacts]

Wow, that must have been amazing to see both of them in one night!!! 😊❤️😃

[@Raymond-d8w]

God this incredible song and voice definitely made lots of babies

[@757optim]

Kenny started as a rocker with The First Edition.

[@johnraygun9868]

My favorite version is him and Lionel singing it together at Lionel’s ceremony ❤

Kenny Rogers started out in rock, with Kenny Rogers & The First Edition

[@Tommy1977777]

This song is responsible for a TON of people being here today.

[@glennallen239]

Lionel Richie said he had suggested the song title to the Commodores, but they were not interested in singing it. he then contacted Kenny Rogers to see if he would be interested. Kenny said yes and Lionel Richie finished writing the Song. He said he knew Kenny Rogers had a big fan base and thought country music fans would buy the record as well as Commodore fans. He said it was great to give the Commodores and Kenny Rogers exposure to other Genres. In the 70's and 80's artists would cross genres and perform and write for each other, It was all about the music.

[@generationgapreacts]

Love that!

[@wayne_twentyfive]

Kenny had a great voice, and could really tell a story with his vocal style .. One of his early classics was "Ruby ( Don't Take Your Love To Town )", which he sang when he fronted The First Edition band .. It's about a crippled war veteran whose wife goes out to seek the physical love he can no longer give her .. It's heart-breaking, but melodically it's such a wonderful song .. Highly recommend it ! .. Wayne

[@js3599]

"Ruby" is a great song, I also love the Mel Tillis version, especially since he wrote the song. If I am not mistaken, Waylon Jennings was the first to release it

[@wayne_twentyfive]

@@js3599 Thanks for that info .. Although I've always loved this song and the way Kenny sings it, I've never thought to check who actually wrote it or who else has recorded it .. I will look up and listen to those versions you mentioned .. Cheers, Wayne

Kenny Rogers started out with the group The New Christy Minstrels in 1966. In 1967, he joined The First Edition and then went on to a solo career.

Kenny Rogers was a cross over artist. He was played on Country & Main stream radio. He did a string of songs like this in the early 80's.

This song became Kenny Rogers' biggest hit song ever!!! Not only that this song went all the way to hit #1 on the Billboard Country chart, but it also went to hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Billboard AC charts in the fall of 1980. A beautiful song indeed!!!

[@ianjackson8310]

i sung this song twice in public to my wife the first time was when we got married 33 years ago and last year when i lost her to illness i sung it at her funeral this song meant so much to me and my wife lost my lover best friend and sole companion just hard times now

[@stephenhanft1226]

I'm glad you both got to react to Kenny Rogers' "Lady". Mama Gap is correct. It is a beautiful,/romantic love song. Baby Gap, Kenny Rogers recorded and sang two types of songs. It was either country story songs or romantic love song ballads. "Lady" is obviously the latter. If you would like to react to more of Kenny Rogers beautiful.romantic love songs, I would suggest "Through The years", "She Believes In Me", "You Decorated My Life", and "Love The World Away". If you would like to react to some of Kenny Rogers country story songs, I would suggest "The Gambler", "Coward Of The county", and "Lucille". I'm sure you will love and enjoy all the songs I mentioned. Kenny Rogers is one of the all-time greats.

[@GrumpyOldGuy534]

One rock song he did, "Just Dropped in to See what Condition My Condition was In " but my favorite was "Ruby", remake of a Mel Tillis tune. Both worth a listen

[@chrisinidaho4569]

I second watching the video with both Kenny and Lionel together...amazing friendship and emotion displayed.

[@Titus-as-the-Roman]

For people like myself, powerful songs such as this has great meaning and truth, I'm far from a Prude (ask my poor wife on some weeks), but I have my scruples and sense of right and wrong, I almost can guarantee this songs ink wasn't 5 minutes dry Mr. Rogers was already out "Fly Fishing" *- Me (this was the best looking part), March 1977, a group of 5 young Adults crams inside a Ford Pinto, the smallest of the fellows gets to sit atop the Differential Hump, a place with no seat-belts, this was the time the driver decided to see if Both the car and the passengers would survive a direct, center of hood, Massive tree impact, 70 MPH. Well, we survived, car not so much. 1 1/4 years later I got to walk under my own power. Oh, P.S.- forgot, The 1971 Ford Pinto Did Not Explode, so we were in one sense very valuable test subjects !

[@philipdickey6460]

A must reaction by Kenny Rogers, is. called “Tell It All Brother “ because the lyrics are still relevant for our time, love this song as well….

[@zapataattack5843]

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Look up Lionel & Kenny singing it together shortly before Kenny passed away. He tells the story of the song & their friendship & witnessing them together is just beautiful. You can see the love between them. after a 30 year friendship. Even if you don't react to it, you must watch it. And for the record, this is still country. LOL The genre has evolved immensely. He has another beautiful song that is perfect for long relationships & anniversaries, called 'Through the years'. Stunningly beautiful as well.

I have another request for a Kenny Rogers song. Could you please react to "Crazy". This song Kenny Rogers co-wrote with singer-songwriter Richard Marx. If you loved "Lady" then you'll love "Crazy". It is every bit as beautiful and is one of Kenny Rogers hidden gems from his great music song catalog. I don't think mama gap knows this one so it would be the first time for the both of you hearing it. I guarantee you'll love it. I'm sure baby gap would have a good cry because it's so beautiful.

Lionel is a very prolific writer of love songs. He and Kenny Rogers were good friends. Kenny was making an album at the time and needed one more song to fill out the record. He called Lionel who offered him Lady. Lionel wanted The Commodores to record it, but they felt that it wasn't quite their style. Many years later Kenny and Lionel sang Lady together on stage. It was pure gold. You could tell the love the two had for each other. They were like brothers.

[@krazyj1957]

Kenny asked Lionel to write him a song for his new album, and this led to a 40-year friendship between the two.

[@keymack2477]
