This style is called Southern Gothic, and a feature of the songs is that they are stories and they are usually dealing with dark subjects. Some other examples would be The Night the Lights Went out in Georgia and The Thunder Rolls. [edit] Another great one you should definitely listen to is Bobbie Gentry's Ode to Billie Joe (also Southern Gothic style).
@MessianicMermaid2 жыл бұрын
The Thunder Rolls has an epic third verse that Garth only does live. The video for it was banned from CMT for being too dark. I LOVED when he did it in concert back in the 90s because the rigging the lights were hanging from would rain. He'd walk through the wall of water and it would bounce perfectly off of his hat while he gave the camera this super intense stare. It was rad as heck.

Another is Two Black Cadillacs by Carrie Underwood. It's a dark story of two women who both realize they have the same cheating man in their lives, and what they do about it is never detailed. They are both portrayed paying respects to him at his grave, not long after, before going off and never speaking to each other again. But you are left confidently assuming that they killed him somehow.

We left my father in 81. My mom finally finished her BS in 93, only for the economy to turn in her field so she couldn't get a job for what she studied. There were a number of hard years, times we were on church welfare. Mom said in the early years she would remind herself that the current situation was better than living with him. After some years, she could no longer viscerally remember how it had been sharing a roof with him, but then she realized all of the things she had pulled through between leaving him and the latest situation being dealt with. She rallied, telling herself she made it through all of that, she could make it through this as well. Not sure where you are in your own timeline, as you refer to past tense, but I felt compelled to add this. Perhaps it's meant for others that wander through the comments, perhaps it is meant for you specifically. Regardless, may it be a blessing for whomever needs it.

This song was originally done by Bobbie Gentry, and Reba was actually hesitant to cover the song because it had been so iconic in its own right.

Reba was a music legend long before she did her sitcom and had starred in several movies. This was a cover for sure, Reba grew up on a ranch in Oklahoma, can rope and ride, and her mother was a school teacher. Her whole family is musical and she's sing the national anthem and then ride in the rodeo. Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, and Kitty Wells were the early female pioneers of country music, and then came Dolly who showed that besides country music, pop music, movies and TV acting were all doors that could open and Reba followed Dolly right on through that door. You saw Dolly in the audience and she guested on Reba's sitcom and that shows those two women respect and care about each other. Gotta love Reba.

“She can sing sing“. What an amazing statement. Your statement suggests that there are some professional singers who can’t sing. What a sad statement on our autotune times, and the people who allow themselves to be entertained by singers who cannot sing.

It's so crazy to think that I've been listening to reba my whole life and grew up on Reba mcentire. She's literally a country legend. It is so cool to see that people of different genres can definitely still love the same music no matter what time frame they were introduced. Loved the video!

"Your daddy's run off, I'm real sick and the baby's gonna starve to death. . ." This was her mother's one chance to do right by her daughter.

No. Handing your daughter over to men to make money as your one chance to get out of poverty (don’t let ME down), which is exactly what her mom did in the song, is not doing right by her. And she died without a penny because her daughter was trying to become a lady and not live with her head held down in shame for prostituting to make it out from where she came. Yes, in the end she forgave what her mother did and became rich and famous for her own talents, but that doesn’t excuse her mother for turning her out.

@@lawrenceofarabiaarabia9177 in the age of sex trafficking awareness, you really do have a valid point. But your side isn’t the only side. When you live that deep in poverty sometimes you will do anything you can to escape. I believe Fancy wanted to enter the sex work industry. Mom didn’t turn out on on the street to a pimp. She was in with the elite. Fancy was never depicted as not having power. She became a mistress ffs. She’s proud of her work. She’s probably keeping her workers safe. Sex is the most natural thing about all of existence, it shouldn’t be shamed, stigmatized, weaponized, or political fodder. 🤷🏻♀️

@@lawrenceofarabiaarabia9177 Funny you forget the part where her father ran away and abandoned them. Then someone faked the will and stole her house away. Her mom knew what was coming and that she would be helpless. She knew her daughter would have to survive doing something terrible. So she gave her the best chance she would have. Don't blame a dying mother. Blame that low life SOB who abandoned his kids to die. The father deserves 100% of the shame. No one else.

Reba is an Amazing singer and in 1991 she lost 8 members of her band, her manager, pilot and copilot in a plane crash. She stopped touring and that's why you saw her as an actor on the show "Reba". Yes Sir, she can flat out sing and she has her own very distinct sound. Love Her

This is Rebas favorite song to perform she said in an interview . I do love the original by Bobbie Gentry too and is worth a listen and Ode to Billy Joe too. Also listen to Rebas the night the lights went out in Georgia. Great story telling the way Reba sings.

I went to a Reba concert in Santa Fe Spings ca. It was an outside garden setting beautiful day. As the sun started to set Reba sang Fancy. As she stood there in her long dark forest green dress all that flowing red hair; my little 5 year old Sarah jumped off my lap and ran to the stage. Reba just looked at my daughter bent towards her and kept on singing. I will never forget that day. Sarah was so excited. My boyfriend and I took her to the county western store to buy her a pair of light pink roper boots. She had the cutest jean skirt with a matching jean top the one that ties in a knot with puffy sleeves white and little pink bows. Sarah just loved Reba and knew every word to fancy. It was a sight that warmed even Reba’s heart!

Survivor is one my favorites by her. But also Does He Love You is an excellent song by her and it shows not just her talent but that of Linda Davis if you choose the original recording. She's also performed it with Kelly Clarkson and recently re-released it with Dolly Parton. As she has released a new box set. I have been obsessed with Reba since I was 3
