[@marianlincoln9008]

Ray has earned a seat in heaven, for all the joy and mirth his songs have engendered over the years... How could anyone not want him in the Country music hall of fame...

[@paulmietty7643]

Ray keeps finding humor in everyday life. What a talented songwriter.

[@michaelhendrickson5287]

There is absolutely no one like Ray Stevens. Not every thing he did was funny. "Everything Is Beautiful" is a great song.

[@JustinNichols79]

if you can sit thru Ray Stevens stuff and not get at least a grin, your not human, that's all I can say, cause the man is by far the funniest songwriter ever!

[@mollybamburg7439]

The best part is some songs have happened you can still find the news articles for them in the states

[@Connie1Fan]

You are so right. I ride around with his CDs on my truck, and keeps me smiling even when traffic gets horrible. Ray Stevens is a treasure!!

I've always loved Ray Steven's music. So much fun. I remember when The Streak came out, 2 guys streaked down the street in front of the local radio station in Auburn, Maine.

[@maryanncampbell3422]

I just heard this one this year. As always, Ray Stevens manages to make even simple pleasures like eating chili a event you'll never forget. Thanks Ray, for the funny memories. Love you, man.

[@mollybamburg7439]

This song is based on a true event in a way a judge was sent to the hospital after trying a few spicy chili dishes i remember reading the news article do not remember when just that it was after 2011 for i had my dog when I read it

Squirrel not squirell! You might want to learn how to spell it! There’s no reference to the song because, he’s singing a completely different song so, why would he have to do that to please you? Duh, learn to use your common sense!

Ray Stevens is the epitome of patriocity, comedy, and is a genius. He had his first hit when I was in high school, and I've loved him ever since. But the patriotic songs really grab me by the heart. Thanks, Ray! I'm on Broadjam but I will never be able to compare to Ray.

My dad says a good Texas chili will make a Texan cry and a yank feint

[@marhawkman303]

@@bethanysmith5856 I love the ending. The nurse lady eats the chili makes a face like "enh tastes fine to me" and walks off. :D But that's how it goes. People who like hot peppers just devour things flavored with them, and people who don't like them scream in pain at a single taste.

[@kellyrayburn4093]

If I ever judged one of these, they'd probably look at me like I had lost my mind. "Sure I'll judge your chili cook off. Just make sure there's a gallon of milk and something to drink it out of." That stuff has some serious heat and (for me, at least) the only thing that kills the fire is milk.

Love you Ray....PS: A spoonful of sugar will cool it down.

[@sonyafox3271]

No, it doesn’t, drinking a glass of water or milk, which is what we’re taught early on, duh! Sugar only makes things with heat taste sweet and, does nothing to cool down your throat, duh!

[@sonyafox3271]

No, again it only makes the food taste sweet, it doesn’t do nothing to cool down your throat like water or milk, it helps cools down the burn of those chilies or peppers, we learn this as child early on, something the Mexicans have taught us!

[@montanaboy3777]

My friend Ray....been decades since I first heard you when I was a teen and you were putting out "the streak" and from then on...we were best friends as you just continued to crank out one funny after another. I enjoy all your music and your wonderful sense of humor that come out during your songs. Never have you lowered yourself too obscene vocals...or dirty lines..just pure family entertainment!! I have nothing but the highest respect for you and the family that supports you though out the years!! God bless you and thank you for doing the song "Stand up" - our nation needed that song and hope people will wake up in time to turn us around!! God bless you & your family & the friends that are all behind the scenes making it all come together. God has used you too get through too us......been a pleasure!! Thank you!!

[@kennyhall2928]

Ray is such an entertainer there is no way you won't laugh when listening to his songs.

[@carolbridges6484]

I grew up in Texas. Several decades ago I went to the Czech festival in a little town called West. West is located south of Dallas-Fort Worth, in central Texas. They were having a chili cookoff, and each team entry had a snappy name for their concoction. I took a few samples but passed on the one called Goat's Head Chili because I was full. Not ten minutes later as I stood at another booth I turned around to see the GHC team lifting something out of their cooking pot. It was a goat's head. That NEARLY put me off chili altogether.

[@Vonrak]

Thank you sir for all the great times with your wit and musical genius 😎

LOVE IT. Nailed it, too LOL. I learned from my dad (C.V. Wood bought from him) who learned from his uncle, who learned from his dad who served it first in 1911. Still being made today. Dad judged cook-offs since early 80's and I went to a lot of fun ones. The worse thing is to come upon a cook-off and everyone is just doing their thing and being quiet with no decorated booths at all. Your spirt warms my soul.
