Ray Price "I Wish I Was 18 Again"

[@callfeestayns2167]

As a 20 year old unfortunate enough to be in gen Z, I wish we had more people like this. Genuine old school folks are a dying breed. Life is good and I thank the Lord every day for another chance to be a light in this dying world.

[@CookieMookie-l7w]

Yes I feel bad for new generations they are not seeing true talent these people had to struggle go through all kinds trials tribulations to make it in a competitive field ray is and will remain a hero and icon rip

[@Joetrout]

Yup and once they are all gone you will never see another generation like them again NEVER! What they went thru work, taking care of their kids and such a young age , again work and work and never once complain about this or that makes them the strongest there will ever be! Those generations were it!

[@garytodd5605]

Exactly right. I am 66 and would give anything to turn back the hands of time.

[@lannyfoster4875]

Gary I take my hat off to you. You are so right about the age you reflected on this song. I am almost 74 and started listening to Ray in 1950 and GOD I have had a wonderful life. Best of luck to you

[@curtiskea876]

Ray Price is one of the absolute best. He is a reflection of what true country music is. Of all the great Ray Price songs my favorite is "I Wish I Was 18 Again". I will be 79 in a couple of months so I certainly feel the emotion of this song. I can only speak for myself, but I believe most of us wish we could be 18 again.

[@smerchly]

You speak for me too . I'm 79 and still love to listen to the 'old' crooners sing those sweet ballads . George Burns did a nice job on this song as well , and my father sang it while playing his piano about 20 years ago and he taped it for me . Cheers !

[@joebarriga-9945]

oh yes, i hear you, i am 75 and also feel the emotions of yesteryear. so let us be grateful for what we have. we have great company on this song.

Dying of Pancreatic cancer he did an album Beauty Is and dedicated to his wife Janie. He would stay in the music venue and sign or shake any hand his whole career. By the time (Being last) in line, he signed everything for me. He did not make me feel rushed but appreciated. He never took a dime from songwriters for songs he sang. His songs are timeless. They say his Voice in the final album when he was in extreme pain from end stage pancreatitis cancer Did not require any musical enhancements. The older I get the how soo many old greats gear forgotten. Recall as a kid listening to 78 real thick records and because of the bad recordings I just trashed all those records. Now most don’t know what a 78 record was.

I am 72. I get it. My niece called me old not long ago. I said yeah you are right, but I saw things live you only read about in history books, heard groups, and singers at their prime, and saw entertainers on Ed Sullivan of my parents and grandparents time, before the curtain fell for them forever. I saw America go from the peaceful sleepy 50's, to the mess it is today, and it all took about 37 seconds, which you will not begin to understand till you are old too.

[@rubymcclain5078]

Amazing how many "old" people are actually on youtube. Just a few years ago i was in my teens and thinking it was exclusively teenagers and people in their 20s.

That was the last conversation I ever had with my Frein, he passed shortly thereafter. Makes me wish he could've been 18 again. Isorely miss Ray!

I am 71 and reasonably healthy. I have lots to be thankful for, although we loss our 37 year old mentally challenge daughter to a car accident almost 6 years ago. My wife only had a few cuts and bruises on that sad occasion. Can't turn back the years there's not much I would change. I met every challenge over the years and still facing a few. We All have challenges. Merry Christmas from cold and snowy Newfoundland.

This is so compelling, and true. Nobody really understands being old and full of regrets until it happens to them. I have a lot of regrets in my life, and things that could have gone very differently had I made better decisions. Perhaps I have more regrets than most because of the way my life has gone (which I would never wish upon anyone). There is a sorrow here. What I am looking for is hope.

im 56 came upon your post. did any thing improve?

[@MichaelHopcroft]

@@mickeypastor5130 Well, I got a "menial" job usually held by younger people. Even the socialization is helping me. Plus I have self-published two novels on Amazon...

So glad I got to see Ray perform on stage in Branson. He is one of the greatest singers. We miss you Ray.
