Next up - "The Baby"

[@titansfan23]

Oh.....boy 😢

[@camelliaroan6341]

I cry every time I hear #TheBaby

[@fishinman539]

Yes very underrated song!

[@amandak2237]

Most definitely!!!

[@christielysdale1815]

@@camelliaroan6341 Me too!

[@wendywinchell5873]

I was pregnant with my son when this song come out. My son had a 5% chance of making it, everytime the part would come on ps this is Austin he would kick me... long story short my son is now 15 and his name is Austin :) love your reations sir

[@jaychilders3315]

Awesome story!

[@TristanandIsolt]

Brought tears to my eyes. Is his father around?

[@CoastalNomad]

Great Reaction...... This was Blake's first #1 and song that Got him Noticed...... Other Early Hits include: "Ole Red", "Some Beach"

[@tjpowell234]

Always got him and Joe Nichols confused. Thought Joe sang some beach.. loved his song the impossible. So good

[@CoastalNomad]

@@tjpowell234 Joe Sings "Sunny and 75" and "Tequila makes her clothes fall off"....... But, I can see the confusion......

[@aletmartins6940]

I also love She has a way with words, and it is special magic when he and Michael Buble sing Home together.

[@ShelbyFarrow]

Yes and it was Blake's very first single released. It went soaring to the top of the Billboard Hot Country chart and stayed there for 6 weeks. Great song.

[@Balockay247]

The Baby definitely needs to be next! That's another great song by Mr. Shelton.

[@KittCrescendo]

It’s funny because Blake was nervous about recording this song, afraid it might be perceived as too cheesy, but the people spoke! We LOVED his brand of Cheese…. I’ve seen that man live 3 times, he’s as good live as his recordings and he’s hilarious. There are so many awesome Blake song for you to check out…

[@kerrijohnson2303]

My absolute fav song by Blake Shelton! Never gets old!

[@ShadowyFox_86]

It's funny to learn that because I know so many people that know this song by heart that aren't country fans at all.

[@maryannsulic1174]

Geez, he was young. Yes, Blake is famous for his mullet. His voice and this song are exceptional.

[@donnysmith946]

Thanks for playing my requests. I'm 74 years Young and Have heard lots of music in my life time!! You are the best reaction site that I have heard, Keep up the outstanding work!!

[@johnthegreek5836]

This will always be my favorite Blake’s song

[@StormKing757]

Since you just listened to Austin, now you need to hear The Baby

[@sheilasisk7550]

Oh never get tired of this one

[@WooWooGirl]

This is an old song and one of the first I ever heard from Blake. This is my MOST FAVORITE Blake Shelton song. I adore this song...'cause I am a total ROMANTIC. This may have been one of his first hits...not sure. He is currently married to Gwen Stefani the Pop Singer. Previously...Blake was married to Country Singer Miranda Lambert. They have both moved on with others.

[@kellieshae]

I saw Blake Shelton in concert a few years back and when he sang this song, and Ol Red, he put a fake mullet on to sing the songs and I squealed 🤣❤️

[@KittCrescendo]

😂 Awesome! He really is too funny. At his concert in Wrigley he got us all tweeting #kissmycountryass 🤣

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

After all of these years - after ALL of the amazing songs Blake has - this is STILL my top favourite. Now that you've checked out Austin - you need to keep going down the line with Ole Red (official video is a MUST) - and The Baby.

[@paranormalcarolinas302]

You might have been a little late to the party, the country music, but we really glad you showed up.

[@carolnikitaides2904]

If you're into gospel music at all, Blake's In My Savior's Shadow is the one that always makes me cry and brought my sister great comfort when she was terminally ill. On the lighter side, one of his earliest - Old Red- always makes me smile.

[@darleneroberts9187]

This ole boy is from Oklahoma. I live 23 miles from him. Love this guy. Home Free does "Hill Billy Bone" by Blake.

[@TexasMagnolia]

Seb, we’ve seen days when your wife says “I don’t feel beautiful”…. A great message in Trace Atkins - Hot Momma

[@KPOPEOMMA7]

This is my #1 Blake song❤ 🎵

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

Beautiful love song!!😢❤❤ Sweet Love ❤

[@EdithMaxim]

Also try "Ole Red"

[@konstancemoore4883]

The Baby by Blake is my fav song that he has.. breaks my heart every time I hear it

[@chadswiney4035]

Grew up with Blake Shelton. Not literally but I grew up listening to him. Still sounds good to this day

[@whitetigerak]

This is the song that made me a country fan. I went to see a movie in the movie theater years ago, and before the previews started they had music playing in the theater. This song came on and I was captivated by it. As soon as I got home I got on my computer and googled the song to find out what it was called and who sang it. (This was before we all had smart phones in our pocket). My love for this song led me into checking out other country music and falling in love with the genre.

[@2nicnag2]

90’s and early 2000’s country music is when I fell in love with the genre

[@katiewross]

Me too!

[@bluedogok]

Another "Austin song" is Amy's Back In Austin by Little Texas, released in 1994. It mentions a place that closed when I lived there, La Zona Rosa.

[@ZacJenkins-fg3ex]

Theres an old saying i first heard from my granddad "County music always finds you Happy, Sad, Lonely or Mourning a Loss it finds you"

[@kathyjaissle6791]

This song made me fall in love with Blake Shelton!!!!

[@brand-EE]

I named my son Austin because of this song back in 2001! ❤❤😊😊

[@mcbranson]

Hey thank you very much for that song. It’s fantastic because I clicked onto your site because I was looking for Blake and sure enough when you said you cry every time you hear that song so totally my experience and it blew me away. I appreciate you, brother you’re real. I love you, Austin hello Texas.😊

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

Love your reaction. This was one of his earlier hits. I have always liked him.

[@kerrycronin3581]

I have never heard this song before. I haven't listened to country music since the 80's . I got chills. Literally.

[@MCMNasty2]

It’s a great tune.

[@brianmorin7197]

Sebs what made him Voice worthy, he now has 21 straight #1 hits. Over his storied career

[@courtneyalvord2640]

The baby next please. That song makes me cry every single time

[@lynnwood84]

Ol' Red for the laughs, The Baby for the feels.

[@jeremywetsig4044]

THE CALL. BY MATT KENNON. A MUST. stick with me and I’ll show you the path. So much good music but because your on a country journey please take my advice on this one. I’ll help guide you 😂❤ love the reactions. Keep them coming

[@nancyd9195]

The mullet from the past!

[@aprilphillips3404]

More Blake Shelton!! Love him and his songs. Mostly him :) 1. Ol Red 2. I lived it 3. I'll name the dogs 4. Come back as a country boy 5. Honey Bee 6. Boys round here 7. Nobody but you featuring wife Gwen Stefani 8. You make it feel like Christmas with wife Gwen Stefani 9. Go ahead and break my heart featuring Gwen Stefani

[@sharonpate5481]

A very young good looking singer! 👵🏼☮️💜

[@melindamitchell-ph8jy]

I’m from Austin so I love this song

[@sheilagarrison1446]

YES!!! THE BABY ❣

[@TobiasCrabtree-y8v]

All time favorite love songs...

[@marianna-n5w]

WHO are you when I'm not looking from Blake is beautiful song,worth checking out

[@rosemariediamond5948]

My favorite of his songs. Country can reach you on so many levels

[@OKIE_KBCS]

Blake is the man

[@ChunkyLemonMilk]

This song makes me cry every damn time… makes me think of my wife. She is no longer with us, but my love for her hasn’t died.

[@dylanedmonds32]

Dang, I'm sorry to hear that brother. May she RIP

[@erinmontgomery4983]

90s country just hits different. It is all amazing.

[@elizabethstanford6826]

I really do love Blake Shelton and he has some of the greatest songs out there but one night when I met him at a concert he was just one of the most down-to-earth people I have ever met. Blake Shelton actually loves his fans and appreciates them and doesn't act all high and mighty.

[@thedentalbusiness4411]

This song still gives me chills

[@ivanalaff5346]

I have seen him but this is the first time Ihave head him! Thank you!

[@smalltownblackouts]

"That was good" Nailed it

[@TexasMagnolia]

“Some Beach” is a must…hilarious!

[@jackie_jrml]

Those locks!! 😍😍 I saw him when he opened for Rascal Flatts way back in 2006 or so. Oh good times!! Love this song. Always been my favorite of his.

[@Me-wk3ix]

Blake was such a baby in this video, so young!

[@shakedown6220]

Now you gotta hear Blake Shelton goodbye time. Best vocals

[@Christian-DH]

Sebbs... Angelina Jordan just dropped a track on 5 May from her soon to be released all-original album under Republic Records. Stunning!

[@tammyduffy6554]

This is one of my favorite Blake Shelton 's songs.

[@johoney5458]

good reaction. Thank you for your reviews and y'all have a blessed day.

[@starlaminde8436]

Blake …you can’t touch this! Love him any song every song.

[@ameliagodfrey3136]

17 years apart and now we are back together.

[@lindseyrinehart9021]

You did do Austin! Classic.

[@bjewing723]

You said you should get to know more old people. The older I get (I'm67) the more I realize just how impactful our music was in the 60's & 70's. The absolute best thing that has happened to me in a while (and no, I'm not blowing smoke up your backside) has been watching you discover that. It has been a sheer pleasure to see you get your mind bent listening to the incredible music of my "Boomer" generation. I wanted to steer you toward a couple of the singer/songwriters who had an incredible impact on me personally. Jim Croce (keep the tissues handy), Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor, Carole King...the list is long (look up singer/songwriters). Even further back to the Greatest Generations music, check out Jerry Vale, Tony Bennett,. Then there's Crosby, Stills & Nash, Simon and Garfunkle...again, there were hundreds. Keep doing what you do. I'm a couch bound disabled vet, a widower with no kids (don't tell my cats) and you have given me hours of some much needed nostalgic joy. Thank you.

[@alisonrobinson3253]

This was his first song and it was a hit. I loved it, along with his dimples and curls.

[@dennislloyd4018]

mullets, answering machine, dialed up lol

[@neighbourlady]

Good Blake story song - Ole Red. and its funny!

[@terryduncan31]

Blake was awesome live! Great entertainer.

[@smalltownblackouts]

I love reaction videos because we get to experience the same emotional connection with people. It's like showing a friend a song you love and getting to see them love it too. Thanks for what you do

[@ChicagoDB]

Yes indeed…I remember this when it first came out…his first #1 and it’s a great song.

[@michellejackson6679]

I love some Blake Shelton... get down into him

[@jillbrewer6722]

I wanna see his reaction to Bottles and bibles. one of my all time fav songs

[@sueg3650]

I'd love for you to react to his song "Ol' Red", from roughly the same time period. Beautiful voice.

[@cliffordchang4612]

Now you have to listen to his song Ol' Red!

[@seth9382]

I love this song

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Nice reaction, thank you.

[@JADPrice]

I can relate to your “friend zone” comment. When my wife and I first started dating I told her up front, “I like you, I don’t want to be “friends”. I’ve been friend zoned before. Not this time!” We will be married 20 years in Nov 2023. Keep up with the reactions!

[@Godlygirl38]

This is my favorite Blake song

[@chriswaltman5313]

Good choice, this song put Blake on the map. Back when he was a country singer.

[@kathrynlovejoy2463]

I ❤ this song

[@jerseygirllori9837]

Favorite Blake Shelton song! Another great reaction!!

[@jamesfish2177]

Such an amazing song!! Thanks for the reaction!!

[@hdew5525]

This song always hits me in my heart.

[@jackieisamay403]

Thanks! 😃

[@davidphillips4476]

GREAT story!! She had to drive all the way back across the country. Nice.

[@pamelafisher4178]

Love this song

[@EdithMaxim]

I love Blake but his newer songs he sounds like everyone else. You want another sad song of his try "The Baby"

[@larynanntapp6333]

All time favorite song of his!

[@p.j.morris]

She was Austin it was a code word for Austin Texas. that is where she went back to.

[@lancemcdonald1317]

Another song is every light in the house is on by trace Atkins

[@nanayoung3932]

Please listen to The baby by Blake also!

[@afordhere75126]

This was one of the songs I used to sing in karaoke back many years ago. Love it

[@tarheelforlife4008]

Ole red song is legendary

[@5wrights1]

With how you talk about your wife, I'd highly recommend Lee Brice "A Woman Like You". One of my favorites.

[@timbit8670]

You remind me of my dad. He told us he knew on their first date that he would marry her. They met in October was married in January and were together 49 years before he passed away.

[@2nicnag2]

The era of message machines

[@randitucker8641]

Ol red is an amazing song too

[@april6058]

Enjoyed your reaction! Next check out some more young Blake: Ol’ Red, Some Beach, and Sangria (fun songs).

[@EricBrantleyGA]

It is so funny you have to read the lyrics to understand the song. Like looking at the cheat codes on a game! 🤣

[@michellejackson6679]

Appently when he married Miranda she said get rid of the mullet.. lol this is young Blake.. now he's with Gwen

[@CuzKatieSaysSo]

Sweet song.

[@ShadowyFox_86]

I'll start by saying that I'm not a country fan. It's not my genre. But this song holds a special place in my heart. My first love was named Austin. We broke up on bad terms, but we've remained in touch. This song makes me cry every time I hear it; it will always be what I feel.

[@GoodOldGamer]

Blake's just gotten better with age. Now he's a silver fox and has so many great songs! 🤭

[@jimmeyer9106]

he's definitely not gotten better with age. His oldest music is good, his new music is horrible just like 95% of other so called country songs.
