Ricky Skaggs - Honey (Open That Door) (Video)

[@johnd8714]

No one today can even begin to understand the genius of this video. Bringing Bill Monroe to the NYC subway and dancing with the locals is a genre bending monument to country music. Ricky Skaggs is an underrated legend.

This song remained dormant in my subconscious for 30 years. Today it decided to pop in. 🎼🎵 🍯🎶🎵

[@dustinwilliams7542]

Strange how that happens

[@Waynesodumb]

RAMDON AS EFF RIGHT? I was in the bathroom and it popped in my head.

I remember driving home from a job up North and first heard 'Don't get above your raising" on the radio. I told all my work buddy's this guy is going to be a star. Love me some Ricky Skaggs. He is even from near where i was born and half raised in a place called Cordell, Kentucky named after my Cordell ancestors..

[@e-spy]

He has true bluegrass roots. Talent off the charts, especially with a guitar.

[@trappernash5670]

When my grandpa was drunk my grandma wouldn't let him in the house so he started singing this song

At age 5, hearing Ricky for the first time playing the bango,I absolutely fell in love bluegrass/country. Real music and real talent. Thank you Ricky. You speak to my soul.

Omg, yes. He has rare talent, and what he writes? gold. Check out "Somebody's Praying". He feels this so much he cries.

[@ianbds6436]

Takes me back to my childhood. I used to square dance to this song at Ogden Elementary School in San Antonio Tx

Late E-Street Band sax player Clarence Clemons makes a cameo appearance in the video. See him at the 0:40 mark among other places. The interior shots were filmed at the long since torn down Peninsula House Hotel on the ocean in Sea Bright, NJ.

[@mkl62]

A #1 hit for Ricky Skaggs on the Country & Western charts. It was the 705th #1 C&W song of the Rock Era.

[@RobertW-to7yg]

When i was young way young i could sing this whole song to my grandmother mom dad they give me .50 back then i was rich

[@stellacarrier8341]

Honey Open That Door by Ricky Skaggs seems like a simultaneously heartbreak yet also a music amusement type of song at the same time

Not funny when you've been the one on the inside of the door, cowering in terror, desperately trying to shield yourself from that mean, violent drunk out there pounding, kicking, and screaming obscenities.

This is the most '70s country music video ever, and seeing as it was 1983 that's saying something

[@yvettemartinez6417]

It's sounds like my Mexican mom not letting into MY OWN HOME.

[@codym8897]

In the music video for the Ricky Skaggs song "Honey (Open That Door)" (1984), Skaggs portrays a neighbor, who is trying to let someone open the door by throwing things, and is apprehended by his friends and police officers, such as playing cards, talking on the phone in a telephone booth, dining in a restaurant, telling the landlord in an upstairs room, taking the chair from a bedroom and rocking when she talks on the telephone, and climbing up on the ladder causing Skaggs to fall, in which a bald man woke up. In the end, Skaggs and his friends are trying to let them open the door with the police officer, who keeps throwing things.👍

My drunk auntie use to sing this to me lol
