Red Sovine Teddy Bear | Metal / Rock Fans First Time Reaction with 18th St. Rye

Metal / rock fans first time reaction to Red Sovine's "Teddy Bear" while checking out some 18th St. Rye

[@thecaptleefanbatman9130]

I never make through listening to Teddy Bear without tears.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I can certainly see why. - Keith

[@richardpierce7819]

Yeah me also.

[@BreakfastOmelet]

Nobody does. My dad was a trucker and anything by Mr Sovine played at a truck stop reduced hardened truckers and scary bikers to tears.... even sobs.

[@cclapew]

Yep... me too... you're in good company

[@bryanberg8132]

Makes a grown man turn to soup every time.

[@MrNiccholas]

You just opened the door to what I call Trucker songs! I'll tell you truckers are some of the biggest saps around! If you liked this there are a few more you need to check out! Roses for Moma Is another punch you in the feels and Wolf Creek Pass will get you sending Burbon through your nose laughing! Really hope you check out more trucker songs! I was an OTR driver for about a year before the stress got to me and started affecting my health and forced me out. But I have a LOAD of respect for my fellow CDL friends! 10/4 over and out!

[@shawnpilgrim2355]

My grandpa was a truck driver and he used to play a lot of Red Sovine. Now as an adult, and him not here anymore, it brings back so many memories.

[@missfire1291]

My dad could not listen to this song without sobbing his heart out. We lost him to Cancer 4 years ago and he never actually told us the story behind why it always affected him so much.

[@cyndib511]

In the mid 70"s we were driving by a little gas station on Rt 50, in the middle of WV, and saw Red Sovine's tour bus. Of course we had to stop and see if he would sign autograph's. He climbed off that bus as soon as he heard there were kids wanting to meet him. He was the sweetest man, and spent nearly an hour visiting with us. He made a big impression and a fan for life.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

That's cool. I'm assuming somewhere near Clarksburg. - Keith

[@LadyMacbeth56]

Y'all need to do Giddy up go by Red Sovine. There are two parts and the second involves Mini Pearl. It's also a tear jerker. But oh the story it tells.

[@warrenburlingame1172]

Red had several songs like this. I don't care how many times I hear this it still gets to me

[@fluxcapacitor007]

I had the honor of getting to see Red perform this live on two different occasions. It's a special one indeed.

[@stevebournite184]

In all of Red Sovine songs you can always hear the tears in his voice during his songs.

“Giddy up go” is another great song by Red Sovine

[@greeneyelove2003]

I haven't listened to this in a while because I cry. Every time. It's storytelling at its best. Another one that hits in the feels is "Country Bumpkin" which was first sung by Cal Smith BUT the version I like best is by Loretta Lynn.

[@slooking6871]

That’s always a tough one to get through. If you get the chance check out part 2 to this song.

[@kennethabebdroth8513]

Isn't that teddy bears last ride by Diana Willam's

[@carolpesterfield1844]

There is 3 part to this song

[@MrNiccholas]

Would you be referring to Giddy Up Go by Red Sovine?

[@CindyMoore-te2yj]

Teddy bears last ride might be by another person but #1, fits right in.

[@SeaAbout]

This man ruled the tear jerkers😢 should catch pt 2 to this. This is one of the more calm ones ❤

[@bobbiperkins1009]

Absolutely love this song! My dad drove truck all his life. When he couldn't drive long distance anymore, he worked for small business around the state or just day drives.

[@ednafenton7558]

GREAT STORY SONG. I remember when this came out. Played a lot on the radio. It was very, very popular. Red Sovine is a great story teller. Has many songs like Teddy Bear.

[@joelmabrey2569]

I am a 6ft 3in 260lb country man from Alabama, and Teddy Bear gets my eyes to watering everytime I hear it !!!

[@1971tallica]

another couple of great Red Sovine songs are Giddy Up Go and Phantom 309.

[@evelynsmith7076]

My great uncle was in a wheelchair from age 18. He talked all day every day on the cb. Truck drivers sent him post cards from all over and he put them in plastic hangers on each wall. When there wad no more space, he'd take one row down and start a new one. When he passed, the convoy to his grave was quite a sight. His name was Stovepipe and this song always reminds me of him.

[@jeffandrhondaweaver477]

I have always loved Red Sovine. My Uncle used to play his stuff for me when I was a little girl, many moons ago. My favorite was Little Rosa. Play it for your wife when she needs a good cry.

[@truckermike1997]

Can never go wrong with a Red Sovine song. If you want the puppy in the truck you need to listen to Reds song Little Joe. It’s the sequel to Teddybear.

[@MrNiccholas]

That and Giddy Up Go!

[@JohnMiller-zn9pf]

Thank you, I couldn't remember which song was part 2 to teddy bear

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

OMG, my dad had Red on albums & then 8 track tapes & he played them all the time, when I was just a little girl. He was also a trucker & listened to these old trucker songs a lot. I had not heard this in many, many years. Thanks for the memories.

[@lindabrewer3243]

Welcome to the world of Red Sovine. Awesome story teller.

[@GaOutlawVinyl]

There’s a couple of other Red Sovine songs you should check out. Roses For Mama, Little Rosa, Lay Down Sally & Phantom 309 are all great.

[@tonfa2]

+1 for Phantom 309

[@chriscagle3013]

+2 for phantom 309

All of red solvines songs are very sad but also very good. You should do his song" little Rosa " another great reaction. I cried again like always.

This song always makes me cry. Everytime I listen to it tears fall each time.

[@kyleb5169]

I cannot listen to this song without crying. It's such an emotional song.

[@jerricocke987]

I love this video. It was a great reaction and I grew up listening to Red sovine and Steven here's a shout out for you on wbap 820 the bill Mac show when I can get away with staying up that late. Red sovine was the king of trucker songs. And he is an OG no question about it. Great reaction guys.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Thanks! And if this is an example, we can see why he'd be the king of trucker songs. - Keith

[@jerricocke987]

@@BourbonCountryReacts Keith the three that come to mind there is an answer song for this by the way and it's worth the effort.

Other songs by Red Sovine: Little Joe (sequel to this song) Giddy Up Go Phantom 309 Also one of the other commenters mentioned a C.W. McCall Song. I'd second reacting to him: Convoy Wolf Creek Pass. Great reaction.

[@lisaray9944]

Oh goodness this song makes me cry every time I hear this …. My daddy was a trucker for 50 years he played this on 8track when I was little and I cried … scared to death every time he left the house he wouldn’t come home .

Part 2 of this is "Little Joe" with the same Trucker. For me it's just a bit better.

[@paulaweaver6508]

You could never go wrong with Red Sovine. He has a lot of great spoken word songs. One of them is about his son and Vietnam

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Agreed. - Keith

[@HarperHalcomb]

When I was a kid, I would bawl everytime I heard this song.

[@StephJournals]

when I was a little girl my mother listened to Red Sovine. Apparently I loved it and told my grandmother (dad's mom) that I wanted to listen to it. so she bought the CD and when we were in the car she played it and I sung all the songs while she sobbed the entire time without me noticing. She got home and promptly called my mother and told her that she was evil for for subjecting her to that ha. I still cry at many of his songs and think of my grandmother. Its not a popular reaction song so I'm glad you guys did.

[@sassbrat]

Red Sovine was what my dad called The Trucker country singer since most of his songs were linked to trucks

[@merlinathrawes746]

Giddy-up go and Little Joe are just a couple more of the many tales Red recorded! All well worth listening to.

[@sharonburcham66]

Dude … your cold! This is a bad ass song! And I do crank it up whenever I hear it!! It has meaning behind it!!!

This doesn't really seem like a "blast it" song for me, but that's just me. - Keith

Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra -- YES! They’re so awesome!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I *love* their stuff. Just incredible. - Keith

[@Kat._Blue]

Hayde Bluegrass orchestra is great. I’ve seen them in Oslo live a couple years ago. Great reaction again. I can never make it through this song without some tears. But you guys said that you are rock and metal fans right? I’m not really familiar with rock bands, but my kids love the Swedish metal band Sabarton. Have you heard of them? They have a special song about the USA Marines (just for Keith 😉 )Actually they tell war stories (some well known, some unknown) in their songs from all perspectives and sides. I know you react to country music on the channel, but because you gave a shoutout to this amazing Norwegian group, I thought of this metal Swedish band. We love your reactions and your channel.
