Merrilee Rush version was even better

[@allendixon7700]

​@@mindib5878You're right, there's a lot of mate. It's a mate left on that bone with this country music lots of it

[@martinodendaal1703]

Back in the days when people could actually sing. Remarkable song from a remarkable vocalist.

[@Amaberean]

The song is saying that she understands that she was just a “one night stand” and she’ll understand if he just leaves and she never sees him again. If so, he can just consider her a “Angel of the morning” because that’s all they’ll have.

[@yiannis777-l9c]

that's so sad

[@annemarinelli7303]

Exactly! I always felt a little sad every time I heard it.

[@resin3100my]

"Break it to me gently" and "the sweetest thing" are amazing.She really shows her voice off on those two.

[@jjsteel43]

I like 6 of her songs but my favorite is The Sweetest Thing

[@The_Dudester]

In 1968, when the original came out (sung by Merilee Rush) I absolutely fell in love with it and I would switch the car radio from station to station to hear the song over and over. My mother lamented "What has this world come to when a six year old's favorite song is about a prostitute?"

[@brucedillinger9448]

Lol! It's not about a prostitute. But I'm sure you figured that out. ✌

[@The_Dudester]

@@brucedillinger9448 The song is about a woman, that gave intimacy, who is okay with a relationship not happening. Whether money was involved, that is debatable, however, if you have ever rented love for the night (and I'm not talking about off of some street corner) you would understand the implication. Why my mother understood that, IDK, but there is A LOT that women do that they don't tell men about.

[@robertphelps1574]

Originally released in 1967 by Evie Sands then by Billie Davis who had a hit with the song in the U.K

[@TyeDee123]

So glad you did this song, not many reactors have. Juice Newton is such a versatile singer. Definitely check out Queen of Hearts, The Sweetest Thing, and maybe Love's Been a Little Bit Hard on Me.

[@lindenarden667]

"Love's Been A Little Bit Hard On Me" was beyond my memory for a moment! She had great guitar players! "Shot Full Of Love" is an awesome solo as well!

[@rachelharrison7961]

The video for Love’s Been a Little Bit Hard on Me is very tongue in cheek.

[@chestrockwell8328]

I've noticed this as well; first time any of the three reactors I watch who've listened to Juice.

[@sometimesboy]

Gary, EVERY song you mentioned is fire! Juice Newton was huge for a few years when I was a kid. LOVE her songs. I never realized when I was a kid that this song sounds like it's being sung from the standpoint of a weary person after a series of one night stands. I guess I had to live it to see it. RSR also needs to react to BETTE DAVIE EYES by Kim Carnes from around the same time. BTW, RSR, Kim Carnes was a featured singer in the WE ARE THE WORLD video you guys have reacted to a couple of times.

[@TyeDee123]

@@sometimesboy I'm pretty sure they did Bette Davis Eyes already.

The eighties were magical and beautiful just like this song I sure wish go back then 🤗🤗🤗

[@salvatorerizzo8640]

Amen. I just said that to my Son. He lives the 80s 2😊

[@junglebyte]

To set the record straight, just over 50 years ago, the song, “Angel of the Morning,” hit the national airwaves and turned Seattle's Merrilee Rush into a household name. The song, composed in 1966 and released in 1968, rocketed up the charts and has since been recorded by dozens of other artists.

[@pattaylor21]

Evie Sands recorded it in 1967

[@debbiekousmat6101]

It's been covered a few times, but, to be honest, this is my favorite rendition. From the Wikipedia page about this song- "Angel of the Morning" is a popular song written by Chip Taylor and recorded by many artists, most notably by Merrilee Rush, P. P. Arnold, Connie Eaton, Mary Mason, Guys 'n' Dolls, Melba Montgomery, Olivia Newton-John, Bettye Swann and, most famously, Juice Newton." I never knew Olivia Newton-John covered it too. I will need to go look for that.

[@bwheeler1970VB]

Loved Merriee Rush and the Turnabouts version

[@peterdunbar5027]

@@bwheeler1970VB Chip Taylor wrote “Angel of The Morning and it was originally recorded by Evie Sands. Her record label went bankrupt and the single never got promotion or much airplay. It was then covered by Merrilee Rush without her band The Turnabouts. Chip Taylor is a prolific songwriter who also wrote “Wild Thing” and “Anyway That You Want Me”, both recorded by The Troggs. Chip is the younger brother of actor John Voight and uncle of Angelina Jolie. He still tours regularly and has released quite a few singer-songwriter albums as a soloist or duet partner. Many of his albums can be found on Apple Music and concert videos are on You Tube

[@wg7644]

Yep but JN Slayed it and made it her own - just saying.

[@sumonjamal1653]

"Angel of the morning" was first recorded by Merrilee Rush in 1968... Juice Newton covered it in 1981. She quit music for quite a while in the 90's, but eventually returned to performing.

[@DamnSkippyToo]

I like Rush's version better. It's just sounds more poignant and "real" to me. Less electronic. And Rush's voice sounds warmer IMO. I'm not saying Newton is very good, just a different timbre.

[@Wungolioth]

I think the subject matter was a lot more controversial in '68 than it was in '81, as well.

[@richh5951]

Actually, Evie Sands was the first one to record this song, in 1967

[@Wungolioth]

@@richh5951 Good catch, Merrilee was the first I was aware of, and I looked into this a little more, there were no less than 10 versions of this song, probably more, released between '67 and '81 by different artists. I mean, I know songs that have more covers, but that's pretty impressive.

[@ericthemauve]

@@richh5951 Correct! Chip Taylor produced the recording. He originally offered it to Connie Francis, but she thought it was too 'risque'.

[@BillGraper]

I absolutely LOVE her voice, especially in the chorus!!! Both the original & this version are great, but Juice Newton's version is definitely the better version. Here are some more great songs from her: Queen Of Hearts, The Sweetest Thing (I've Ever Known), Break It To Me Gently, Love's Been A Little Bit Hard On Me, Tell Her No. She's definitely worthy!!! ❤

[@michaelproulx5795]

Another awesome tune of hers people tend to forget is in the heart of the night

[@tonialoconte]

And "A Little Love."

[@kenchristie9214]

Not as good as Merriliee Rush.

[@Wungolioth]

I'd say the production on this version is better, and I like Juice Newton's vocals, but I wouldn't say better than Merrilee, or, as I have just discovered, the original version, which was recorded by Evie Sands in 1967.

[@herobreaker9011]

@@kenchristie9214 waaaay BETTER than Ms Rush

[@robertpavel2581]

Love this version! Merrilee Rush version is still my favorite. Both are very soulful with emotion!

[@davidbuck5864]

Merilee was my favorite version, too. Loved it at the sockhop in junior high. Any chance to slow dance with the girl of your choice!

[@nitwitt50]

Me too❤❤ Merrilee Rush my fav, but. Juice Newton is good.

[@efcruzado]

Juice Newton was a crossover Country artist. “The Sweetest Thing (I’ve Ever Known)” and “Break It To Me Gently” are 2 great powerful ballads.

[@Pezzonovante916]

Juice could really belt it out!

[@daniellecarr5014]

I love this song, but my favorite Juice Newton song is "The Sweetest Thing". She has such a beautiful vocal style and is one of my favorite female singers.

[@leonabarad6972]

[@Pezzonovante916]

Her very best!

[@lizmarch4000]

agree Sweetest Thing. So tender.

[@shanegrider3535]

my favorite toooooo!

[@Shrykespeare]

Judy Kay "Juice" Newton, pop/country legend. Like artists such as Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, she was part of the crowd of country singers that had wide crossover appeal. Her first big hit, which you'd love, was "It's a Heartache". "Queen of Hearts" is my personal fave, as it's a catchy as any song you'll hear. "Love's Been a Little Bit Hard On Me" is also terrific, as is "Break It To Me Gently", her cover of a Brenda Lee song. Also... you guys REALLY need to do a song by Crystal Gayle. She's a legend. Start with "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue". Sheena Easton is also another must-listen. "Morning Train" is a great opener for her.

[@elizabethmcmurray968]

Omg i forgot about Its a Heartache! I love that one too!

[@kenpaden]

YES!!!! , great suggestions!!!

[@elizabethmcmurray968]

Second Crystal Gayle next!!

[@rileyandmike]

She covered it’s a heart ache? I didn’t know that, I know the Bonnie Tyler version

[@ednanicholson8553]

Awesome songs and singers.

[@TheRatsCast]

Juice Newton is amongst the few country artists if the 70s and 80s; to cross over into popular music, like Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton, Olivia Newton-John, and John Denver. Even Bonnie Tyler started as a country artist; who song, "It's a Heartache" crossed over into pop. She then embraced the pop star image, with "Total Eclipse of the Heart".

[@jamesdlogan8975]

Actually Kenny Rogers, Olivia Newton-John, and John Denver evolved into country music instead of from country music.

[@JimboInTheHouse1]

"Loves Been A Little Bit hard On Me" is a good upbeat Juice Newton song. She has an amazing, unique voice. I put her in the category with Anne Murray. You can't quite pin their genre down, but dang, they are good.

[@jimmylittle9393]

Ooo yes my parents had Anne Murray's Greatest Hits when I was a kid and I loved it... listened to it so many times.

[@PickleBoot_Arts]

Marilee Rush was the first to have a hit with this, in 1968.

[@josephmanno4514]

But Newton clearly surpassed her.

[@kimberlyfairbanks8330]

Another song that came to mind from around this time is "I love A Rainy Night" by Eddie Rabbit. I remember rstickimg some quarters in the jukebox for this tune as a kid. Lol

[@swingsloth]

Great song. My old man used to play it without break for a while when I was a kid.

[@cdemp4795]

I was thinking of Eddie Rabbit too! I think because both songs were out around the same time and both were crossover hits.

[@mike-N6S]

The basic theme is that she spent the night with a man and wants him to know she has no regrets. "If morning's echo says we've sinned, well, it was what I wanted now." Her name comes from from her childhood. Her little brother couldn't pronounce "Judy" and instead called her "Juicy"

[@stephaniegauntt6894]

“Break it to Me Gently” is my favorite by her! Also, “queen of hearts” and “the sweetest thing”.

[@cjcurtis8944]

Queen of Hearts is the bomb!

[@drewg5637]

My fav of hers is "Break It To Me Gently". It really lets you see her range and what a talented singer she really is.

[@sheilameyers152]

She knows how to spill her soul in the song…. and calls herself an angel’ Does she know something?

[@jennyjenny4501]

I was wondering when y’all would get to this song! I’m happy you love it as much as I do! ☮️ RIP Naomi Judd. I think you would appreciate “Grandpa” by the Judds. Beautiful song!

[@lifewuzonceezr]

My radio show do it yesterday I bawled!

[@guitarzan5328]

Now you must do "Queen Of Hearts". And let's not forget that the mighty *Dave Edmunds* was the first to record it and make it a moderate hit, another artist whose catalogue you guys need to _seriously_ check out. He is in my Top 10 of all-time favourite musicians. He also helped produce albums for *Foghat, Status Quo, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Stray Cats, Nick Lowe* and *Shakin' Stevens,* to name a few.

[@heidiv5488]

The tempo transitions in this song are so remarkable. The slow down is like being pulled into a vortex without escape.

[@rhannah7873]

I can't listen to this song without thinking of the opening scene of Deadpool now. LOL!😆

[@JosiahPacheco-tj1or]

Haha Right 😂

[@FeaturingRob]

I remember loving this song as a kid in the early 80s. I had all but forgotten it...until 'Deadpool' came out. Now...it is stuck in my brain as this played over the opening credit sequence. Instead of the names of those involved, the credits would say "Starring God's Perfect Idiot" instead of Ryan Reynolds, instead of the writers' names the credit read "Written by The Real Heroes Here". Now, as wonderful and beautiful as the song is I kinda giggle when I hear it.

[@gregwatson3300]

I think the use of bells in this is brilliant, as if chiming in the morning and signifying the end of night's illusion. Of course that's just my personal interpretation.

[@joelilley6603]

Juice always added "juice" to every cover she did. I love her song The Sweetest Thing, and Playing With The Queen Of Hearts. 💘

[@kimcutts6153]

I can now take an educated guess whether you're gonna like the song or not. As soon as I saw the title, I knew you'd both love it. ❤ It's a beautiful song. 😍 🎵🎙🎼

[@Head-ck4hu]

Won the Grammy in '81. I can remember hearing this song every hour for almost 2 years. Chip Taylor must have made millions.

[@richarddaugherty8583]

This whole album is terrific. There's even a song written by Elton John on it that she performs.

[@bradleymcconnell470]

Juice Newton, one of my favorite artists. My dad was “pen pals” with her in school. He said she was super nice. Also for the Deadpool fans. Maximum effort, i don’t care what anyone says it’s a romantic movie. Also if you’ve not done Crystal Gayle (who’s Loretta Lynn’s sister) Queen of hearts. It’s a great song too.

[@kman007111]

[@waltw4537]

Bold song for the times. Self-directed self confident woman in charge of her life. Nice version! Goodness! I'm even singing along on the chorus. Have not heard this tune in awhile. Great reaction, Guys! Thanks.

[@btgiv6009]

There was nothing "bold" about this song, and it has nothing to do with a "self-confident woman in charge of her life." It's just one more song about a woman dealing with the emotional fallout from a one-night stand.

[@Xcris_crosX]

Exactly! It was a perfect song during the Women’s Liberation Movement. The Sexual Revolution was a liberating realization that it wasn’t meant “Just For Men”😉

[@waltw4537]

[@fkd1963]

Yes! Juice Newton needs to be heard; beautiful voice! More Juice Newton is “Queen Of Hearts”, The Sweetest Thing” and many more!!!!

[@supasoulproductions]

They use a common studio trick in this record. They have doubled her voice (overdubbed her singing with herself) on the chorus to increase it's impact. Great song, great production. Great record all the way around. Reminds me quite a bit of Linda Ronstadt.

[@steveullrich7737]

Linda probably would have done a great rendition of this song too.

[@TexasRivermedic]

Woot, finally some Juice Newton. She is awesome! My favorite is “The Sweetest Thing”

[@Mr54nomore]

It was 1968 and Merrilee Rush had a number one hit song titled "Angel of The Morning." And 13 years later juice Newton cover her song "Angel of The Morning" and made it number one in 1981. Brilliant!

[@patrickmiller1834]

[@melissag.3325]

Wow, you guys brought me back with that one! I haven't heard that song since I was a kid and I loved it then!!! Thanks for yet another great memory!!!

[@stephengilbert8746]

I love how many movies are introducing another generation to great older classics like this song. hearing this song on Deadpool was great!!

[@danrebeiz4598]

This rock-n-roller pauses for Juice Newton. Never been a country fan, but something about her voice and music gives me the feels

[@nates9029]

I LOVE Juice Newton. You should have started off with "Queen of Hearts" but this is a great song!

[@nikoknightpuppetproduction369]

I love your videos. Keep up the amazing work and stay positive!

[@lauriebarrett6789]

I love her voice.

[@korimiller379]

Along a similar vein of Juice Newton, I'd recommend Coven's "One Tin Soldier (The Legend of Billy Jack)" for Female Friday. 1971 song that I've loved since I heard it as a kid.

[@no2all]

Went to a concert where Juice opened for Alabama in 1984 in Biloxi, Mississippi. It was a great, high-energy concert and I really wasn't a big fan of either before I went to see them live. Good show and a good crowd.

[@lindenarden667]

I think I saw that tour in Georgia! Alabama was huge! I had similar reaction to Earl Thomas Conley who I didn't know until the show. He had 2 guitarists competing for the spot all nite!

[@jdeang3531]

I was there too!

[@beckyhudson7798]

I saw that tour too, in Cleveland, OH.

[@peggynichols1400]

This song was so perfect in the ending of the movie Promising Young Woman. A movie I think every teen boy should see. Just my opinion.

[@AManIsNoOne67]

Yay Juice! If you want to hear a more bluesy tune try "Break It To Me Gently" It's my favorite of hers.

[@mkmstillstackin]

Oh yeah, Juice is no doubt the real deal and yeah, she's got country alright. I had the privilege of seeing her in concert in the mid 90's. Boy, could she still belt it out, like there's no tomorrow, in a stadium setting, no less. She, did this song, "Love's been a little bit hard on me", "The Sweetest Thing", and brought the house down with "Queen of Hearts", my favorite of hers.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

This hit the country and pop charts

[@cathyortiz1280]

So did the original that was a million times better!

[@curtgilbert285]

Written by the great Chip Taylor who also wrote "Wild Thing" among many more.

[@happymethehappyone8300]

Good Cover,, But I Prefer The Original,, Merrilee Rush & The Turnabouts "Angel Of The Morning"

[@andyfletcher3561]

I agree, whatever that's worth...

[@waynenolan5243]

Merrilee Rush had a more angelic voice that seems to be made for this song.

[@soultrampamplification8425]

Agreed, Merrilee owns this song. Nicer voice.

[@dbthree3892]

I don’t like when they react to a cover of a song that was someone else’s hit, but I have to admit that this is an exception to my rule. I prefer Juices version even though I grew up on the Rush version.

[@cathyortiz1280]

100%!

[@pattiaustin1808]

“Break It To Me Gently”, too. You guys are taking me back.

[@BerlinFan82]

You gotta hear Juice sing "The Sweetest Thing" really highlights her beautiful voice.

[@boosuedon]

This version is a re-do. I was a teenager on the original and as such I prefer that version to this one. The original is much simpler, toned down from this one and her voice goes into her lower range which was beautiful. This one has some electronic trickery going on that the original 45rpm did not. I guess what I am trying to say is that this version is a bit over produced. It is definitely worth your time to seek out and listen to the original! Love you guys! Ya'll are one of the very few channels that I have subscribed to!

[@jdeang3531]

Olivia Newton John’s version is better to me but this is good too.

[@carolc4272]

I have to agree. The one by Merrihew Rush is better.

[@donnastory9701]

Rita Wilson also covered this song.

[@SolnaSean]

Since you are in the early stages of reacting to country (especially female singers), you really should react to Patty Lovelace, especially "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive (Live version)". It is more bluegrass, but Patty is the most underrated female country singer of our generation. You won't be disappointed.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Great observations all the way around about her voice and the band and the musical arrangement for sure. She has a wonderful range from contralto down low to almost soprano. This song was actually from the late sixties and so many people have covered it over the decades, including Olivia Newton-John, whom I don't believe you have reacted to yet but was an iconic pop singer in the 1970s from Australia. She was in movies, and then she was the female lead in the movie Grease, based on the musical, and she played opposite John Travolta. But Juice Newton had far and away the most success with it in 1981. I was a senior in high school and this was on the radio all the time. It's the kind of song I normally would have considered too pop for my tastes at the time, but for some reason, it's so catchy and the way her voice soars on the chorus and then of course the ending, I really loved it and I still do to this day. I'm glad you reacted to it. Do some Olivia Newton-John!

[@geoffreymarston5948]

I had a crush on her growing up ! She has great range and her songs are some of the best of her time !

[@justmoose6534]

She did a great version of Break It To Me Gently. Must listen IMO.

[@shawnpilgrim2355]

Listen to “Angel” by Shaggy and listen to the similarities.

[@deannealbrecht774]

This is a "singing in the car" song. It's about a one night stand if you listen closely. I love her.

[@michaellynch5254]

Oh man juice Newton has such an amazing voice.

[@randallholliday7214]

This is a great rabbit hole to go down. "Queen of Hearts" or "The Sweetest Thing" are 2 more great songs you will enjoy. Well really she don't have a bad song. Also y'all need to check out Patty Loveless " A Thousand Times a Day". Another great powerful voice of country music greatest ladies. Enjoyed this, keep it coming.

[@dagmar.6954]

"Juice" Newton is an American pop & country singer, songwriter & musician. Merrilee Rush had a hit in 1968 with the song "Angel Of The Morning". Juice Newton recorded it in 1981. She had a lot of great hits in the 80's such as "Queen Of Hearts", "The Sweetest Thing (I've Ever Known)", "Ride 'Em Cowboy", "Love's Been A Little Bit Hard On Me", "Break It To Me Gently", "Heart Of The Night", "Stranger At My Door", A Little Love", "Restless Heart", "You Make Me Want To Make You Mine", "Hurt," "Both To Each Other (Friends & Lovers)" (with Eddie Rabbitt) etc.

[@ffieditor]

yea IT IS A remake from the early 80'S

[@oldstudent2587]

Merrilee Rush's version of the song was sung when the lyrics made sense as revolutionary. It was still a half a decade before Roe, in some states women weren't even allowed to be told about contraceptives. The idea that a woman would be okay with a one night stand was totally hard for many to comprehend.

[@pattiaustin1808]

Saw Juice Newton on a riverboat concert in New Orleans back in 1982. “The Sweetest Thing” is another great song by her. Thanks for checking her out 👍🏻
