[@kellywann3794]

It’s such a beautiful song. How can anyone not love a man that was so talented, humorous and humble?

[@bobbyecrockett1710]

This was requested by Mickey Mantle, former New York Yankee star, to be sung by Roy at his funeral. Roy sang it when Mickey Mantle died and it was beautiful.

[@ranger-1214]

Correct. People who look it up for video may find Roy singing Amazing Grace at the memorial service, but the funeral service was private. Mickey had thought that Yesterday When I Was Young might have been played on tape, but Roy made the service and sang it live.

[@MIKA3056]

You really Should if you can find an earlier live version or the Original Studio Recording. Roy Deserves to be heard singing this as Younger Man. So Glad you found This Man ..... What a Treasure he was ..... R.I.P

[@gregpickett8816]

Both have their own quirks. I definitely prefer young Roy singing, but I have to admit the older version with his weathered voice has a newer charm to it.

[@maninthewilderness3208]

Absolutely agree! Hope he checks out the early version.

[@RyanofAndor]

Couldn't agree more. This really doesn't do him justice.

[@ME-gr3le]

I agree he’s better vocally when younger, however this song is about an older person looking back on their youth, so this version is better (imo) because of its poignancy.

[@kevinmcconnell9426]

How does one find “the live version of a studio recording?” You can listen to the studio recording, or you can listen to a live version/recording, but not a live version of a studio recording.

[@Emilyhildegaard1]

It isn't about what he misses about childhood, it is about regret for the way he lived his whole life. LISTEN to the words.

[@MrGoldenthroat]

MrLboyd - If you were to listen to Roy singing this when he was a lot younger, you would truly enjoy it even more for his voice was considerably better when he was young!!

[@deanbrown4083]

I agree that studio version is " more pleasing" to the ear but this version, to me, portrays more the emotions of an older person remembering with regret his waisted youth. More feeling to it.

[@Sisallaboutthelove]

I agree. I've always loved this song, but this version is very poignant.

[@danip3270]

I agree with everyone that he has many better sung versions out there. He is a much older man here. It still rips out my heart though much like Johnny Cash singing Hurt when his voice was very old and broken. It brings a different flavor, because you can hear the older age of a man who understands the words of the song in a new way. It’s not just his childhood, of course, but of all the wasted years of our life. 💔 But even if you don’t share the older versions of this song, do yourself a favor and listen to his recorded version. There are a ton of videos of it. Thank you for listening to this man though. Musicians have loved him for generations, and deserves to be recognized by younger people.

[@tomritter493]

Absolutely almost like his death song

[@sloebone7399]

Another aspect of Roy’s guitar mastery is that he’s basically playing a clean tone. He’s not hiding behind pedals and distortion and other effects. It sounds like he’s directly plugged into his amp. There’s nothing there to cover his mistakes.... if he ever made any.

[@LloydMcCoy]

If this doesn’t bring tears to your eyes “And I Mean The Big Croc Type” You Ain’t Human

[@rubyleuty9417]

This was when he was older but his younger versions are so much better when he didn’t have so much trouble breathing.. Thank you for playing a song I suggested.

[@billstokes6740]

He has an another version when he is even older, which ,myself being old, can even really relate to.

[@Shootingstarcomics]

This version from when he was older is good, it’s a more intimate setting. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHa0mmOdfZWZasU

[@mickeydavenport4636]

Sadly. This is Roy's swan song which totally broke me nup. Sadly he's gone now. He died in 1919 at 95. There will never be another Ro yClark.

[@caseyparker6375]

I've always enjoyed a song that Roy Clark recorded that emphasises hits humorous side. It's titled, "Thank God and Greyhound She's Gone ". Try it you'll like it.

[@mrsignguy1000]

I know the original, younger versions were more polished, but...my goodness, you can feel EVERY lifelong emotion in this more mature, much more raw version. 😔

[@KevinRCarr]

So, this would be a good time to take a sideways step in country style music, and discover a fellow named Tom T. Hall. A song that can be found under the title Watermelon Wine, or the title Old Dogs, Children, and Watermelon Wine, is world class, as is a song called The Year that Clayton Delaney Died. Tom T. was also a first class storyteller, with a troubadour's sense for engaging his audience in musical conversation. Roy Clark's portfolio of interesting performances is deep enough and wide enough to let you keep coming back to it for years, so how about discovering this other branch off of that trunk of the music tree?

[@treywest268]

Tom T. was amazing!!! Great songwriter and singer!!!

[@solitarybee3714]

Yes, wonderful suggestion! Tom T Hall was a favorite of mine as well.

[@darkomtobia]

Tom T Hall wrote almost all of his songs from actual encounters in his life or someone he knew/met. "Old Dogs, Children And Watermelon Wine" was a meeting he had, iirc.

[@ojstinson]

I think it's very cool that you are taking this Roy Clark trip, he is a tremendously underrated talent in so many ways.

[@nozecone]

Underrated?? Okay, he wasn't as big as Elvis - but who was? There have been thousands of great talents out there who could never get a foot in the music industry - Clark had a successful career in music; what more do you want?

[@robertshadbolt3056]

Only think he's underrated as people have no idea who he is, once you enlighten them, then he is no longer underated by 1 person.

[@PresMonroe]

Wonderful song written back in the 1960’s by the absolutely brilliant artist Charles Aznavour. If not familiar with Aznavour you are in for a treat !!! He just passed away recently. But he left an incredible legacy….

[@patrickpapineau2119]

Yesterday when i was young is actually a french song "hier encore" writen buy french singer and composer Charles Anavour. Adapted in English.

[@RabbitReturn]

Original is in French by Charles Aznavour. The English lyrics (by Herbert Kretzmer) are amazing. The English version has been covered dozens of times by many great artists.

[@sandrasofiahsexton3917]

This is my favorite Roy Clark performance...his cover of Charles Aznavour's Yesterday When I Was Young, of his misspent youth, missing the significant lessons of life. Also covered by Willie Nelson. The original by Aznavour is also available on KZbin. Love, love, love this song.

[@Johnnycdrums]

Great tune, moves me deeply. I don’t think this is Roy’s best version, however.

[@lbfuller5013]

Ya, I think the studio version is so much better. This is almost unbearable.

[@nephetula]

@@lbfuller5013 Yes, really TERRIBLE mixing of the vocal. It's almost like no one in the control room was listening to the live feed.

[@user-rn5ii2dh6c]

It was great seeing your reaction to this song. It reminded me of when I was a small child and heard it on the radio for the first time. The gravity of the lyrics combined with the wistful guitar just draws you in. It helped me make my mind up, even back then, to try and be authentic in my life and to treat others with consideration and value their gifts as well. Thanks again!

[@Dana-fy8bg]

One of my favorite songs going back to my childhood. Was written and released by Charles Aznavour in French as Heir Encore 1964. It has recently been recorded by Willie Nelson who does an amazing heartfelt rendition LISTEN TO IT.

[@beegee1960]

Roy was a very accomplished singer. He has a bunch of hits. One of his most fun songs is THANK GOD AND GREYHOUND YOU’RE GONE.

[@dbrock1553]

I would say the song isn't so much about a man singing about his youth but rather a regret for not having lived the way he should have and now knowing that he has destroyed what could have been in his life.

[@reneewarren6986]

This song and L Armstrong’s Wonderful World are my all time favorites.

[@timlerminiaux2346]

Keep playing these songs Take me back a long time

[@gregcobb4066]

Thank you for these Roy Clark reactions....what you see is real....this IS who he was...no difference on stage,at home or shopping....great man. Interesting things...1 a boxer until he was 15 or so.2 fired from Jimmy Dean Show for always being late....l wish l had gotten to know him more yesterday when I was young..RIP MY cousin...Roy

[@gloriaasbury-covington588]

As a Black woman, now age 60, l remember hearing this beautiful song as a child playing on the floor with my toys, while Roy Clark sang this song on his Country music show, "Hee Haw". He's NOT singing about missing his childhood. He's singing about regrets and missed opportunities during his life while running after what would NEVER make him happy. Now, it's too late, as he can't turn back the clock, no more than any of us. Go back and find one KZbin vid of the original. Really LISTEN to those lyrics. Everyone has tried to copy Roy's original, but no cigar! Please check out Mr. Charlie Pride and Mr. Charlie Rich, as singers and writers of classic Country. I love all types of music! I look forward to checking out your upcoming videos. Take care.

[@haroldmcdonald9254]

I may be wrong, however, looks like replays both left and right hand on the guitar. He is one of the most talented players that i have heard!!

[@bwilliams463]

My next Roy Clark suggestion has to be 'I Never Picked Cotton.' Much grittier than a lot of songs, building to the end in intensity.

[@pamelapasechnick6899]

Roy Clark is an amazing entertainer!! His guitar playing was impeccable, his singing was like having a conversation with a friend, and he had a great sense of humor and comedic timing! You should listen to his song "Thank God and Greyhound You're Gone". I look forward to seeing more of your reaction videos!

[@randybrewer2019]

Brilliance. Thanks.

[@lindaaumiller7592]

Roy Clark is great. Your reactions are wonderful.

[@pennyyoung3166]

Saw him in concert at fair and stayed at his hotel in Branson excellent. He was host on hee haw with buck owens

[@michaellebeau4482]

Roy Clark was like an uncle to me during my childhood. He and my mother Patty Rainwater and my uncle Marvin and Rainwater all sang together on the Jimmy Dean show in the 50s. He and my uncle Marvin started a band together in Georgetown in 1955. He was a wonderful man and I had the opportunity to visit with him one last time when he played in a town close to me about 10 years ago. Just for shits and giggles you should check out my uncle Marvin Rainwater on KZbin. His biggest hits was “gonna find me a bluebird“. Oh, Roy Clark also had a another original song. Thank God and greyhound you’re gone“.

[@kenb2018]

It's all grown old to some people getting old is cruel. It was one of my favorite songs from Roy Clark

[@llschnitz]

Younger Roy Clark sang this song with a mellow and hauntingly beautiful voice which always makes me tear up. This one not so much at all. Listen to an earlier version and you will be completely blown away. One of the saddest and sweetest songs that has ever been written.

[@dianefiske-foy4717]

I just realized something while watching Roy Clark’s videos. He plays guitar left-handed and right-handed! Amazing 👏🏻🤔❤️‍🔥🥰‼️

[@trudyjoejenkins9357]

Amazing way he has to bring you in to what he’s singing about. I have to say my very favorite as a song goes is TIPS of MY FINGERS. Totally amazing

[@Peter-od7op]

Its great seeing you enjoying roy. I remember smiling like you are when i first heard roy

[@mrbeaverstate]

Miss you Roy...

[@brucebannerman6848]

Glenn Campbell and Roy Clark playing Ghost Riders in the Sky is good beyond words,you can almost hear the words of the song,and at the end the big smiles are simply great!

[@jerry5867]

Mickey Mantle requested that he sing this song at his memorial. He promised him he would. In front of a packed Yankee Stadium he sang this for Mickey.

[@susannezezon1962]

Roy is a rare and special talent.

[@debbiefulton1001]

This song, at this point in time in Roy's life. And My Momma's life hits me in the feels!

[@martinm3474]

Right now, I am imagine what this song sounds like with head phones. Wow. God Bless. and some sweet jazz licks.

[@noraseibert4037]

He has always been a singer and my favorite is Thank God and Greyhound she's gone.

[@MichaelJones-tk4xt]

Roy Clark is a talent in his own class !!! A true master of his art !!

[@tommilaaksonen3632]

Great reaction! Original composer is Charles Aznavour, and his version is even more touching. To me that original version is one and only. Pure emotions.

[@dianefiske-foy4717]

What a voice you have MrLBoyd 👍🏻👏🏻❤️‍🔥🥰‼️

[@donaldkersey9416]

This man has won more instrumentalists of the year many many time with all different instruments he plays the piano also.

[@wordswritteninred7171]

I grew up on Roy Rogers. My aunt, who helped raise me, had a huge crush on him. Mari idea man who looked just like him.lol this took me back to good memories! TY

[@mariapricola781]

So glad you're enjoying him! Loved him growing up

[@michaelgarrigan3706]

I love the way you watch these videos. To see the talent that was rich in those days and acknowledge the purity is great. I have been a fan of Roy since I was 14 and listening to this song on a 45. Now I am a fan of you as you discover one of my childhood heros. P.s. Johny Cash sang the original Folsom Prison.

[@ironeagle8234]

I've been a fan of Roy Clark for over 35 years. I grew up listening to Roy as he was my dad's hero so to speak. They looked a lot alike to boot. Lol. He was a fantastic musician but in my opinion he added even more to his performances with his own unique showmanship. Yesterday when I was young always makes me remember my dad, I'm 60 years old in a couple months and it still brings a tear to my eyes.

[@kobuswinterbach8423]

He was fantastic! I never knew that he mastered his Quitar so well! Ongelooflike mooi lied!

[@mickeymayfield4192]

He did " I'm on top of the world looking down on creation" it was marvelous

[@tammierandall864]

I've listened to a video of him singing this when he was younger.

[@stephenulmer3781]

Such a beautiful sad song. The studio version is even more touching

[@marthaz]

Wow! Quick response prize goes to you. 🤣 Glad you could experience this. I can tell he is older on this version - he used to hit those high notes - truly - "yesterday, when he was young." (Maybe you can Find a different version for your playlist to highlight his voice in his younger years) Love him, love the song, love your sensitivity and genuine reactions 💕

[@gary17509]

He is singing about his life, not just childhood. There are so many things we just can't see when we are young.

[@eddiemason7118]

Roy is a true treasure from Oklahoma there is another treasure you should hear. His name is JJ Cale check out Cocaine, Call me the breeze, After midnight, all written by him. I’m positive you will be blown away.

[@laurabeckman82]

I'm glad you did this song. It is not the best version, though. Listen to the recorded version sometime for your own personal enjoyment.

[@philbarras5833]

Oh the wasted years of our youth, thinking that we can get away with nearly anything with no consequences. Then as we look back with regret from our later years, we can see so clearly how much better we could have lived out our youth. This is both a beautiful and tragic song. Let’s take a cue from Roy make better choices for ourselves and for those we know starting now. Today is an empty page in the story of your life. You get to choose what to write on it. Make your story part of His story. Thank you for sharing this video. One negative comment… We, your viewers can’t really see the video that well and enjoy it with you.

[@RebelFishermanReferrals]

Thanks so much dear friend! Most Awesome, @MrLboyd Reacts #MrLboydReacts

[@bethhutto3138]

Per Wikipedia Roy Clark performed the song at Mickey Mantle's funeral in 1995, at Mantle's personal request. I didn't know this even though I have been a fan of his all my life. Such a beautiful song! Such a wonderful performer!

[@smagda]

Many years ago I watched the Odd Couple TV show and Roy was featured in an episode. He played this song and it stuck in my mind and became one of my favorites. You can watch this clip on KZbin that shows how versatile he was because he gets to play different musical pieces throughout the episode.

[@nonnastorytime1365]

I love his singing this as an older man, it has more depth than when he sang it as a younger man....just because his voice has age in it....Thank you ...sniff sniff

[@rubyleuty9417]

Another of Roy Clark’s great recordings is Tips of my fingers and a fun song of his is Thank God and Grey Hound you’re Gone.

[@richardthompson3153]

Absolutely "BRILLIANT". That describes Roy in a nutshell.

[@AndICanTalk2]

So touching. Glad to hear it for the first 5ime.

[@armywife1641]

I’m 37 years old and this is by far my favorite of Rory’s. He does a fantastic version of it when he was much older than this.

[@kimseckel4875]

I love Roy Clark. He was probably around 70 in this one.

[@nankilday7029]

Think you would love " Thank God and Greyhound." He was truly amazing.

[@johnpegues5701]

Thanks....it was beautiful.

[@stacymoore9836]

You should see the video of Roy Clark singing Yesterday When I was young as an a Elvis tribute.

[@rogerajohnson6495]

I agree with everyone else, you should listen to this song when he was younger. I remember it was an amazing song.

[@willgaines5651]

Total classic. Beautiful lyrics. Great share

[@lindam.9282]

It seemed as though you were near tears, at one point, listening to this one, MrLboyd!🤗

[@ksoltar]

very few artists are left and we really have no new ones. the song writing now is nothing like they did. you just watched a true entertainer that knew how to make the audience feel they had that show put on for just them and everyone else was watching. his skill, his lyrics, his comedy he threw in while he played. all hallmarks of a great showman. check out him doing malaguena on a 12 string to dee a master of the stringed instruments. very few had that skill. totally amazing

[@supasoulproductions]

This is my favorite song by Roy Clark. So full of emotion and regret. Most of his stuff is light and fun, but as you said this one has more of a Sinatra vibe...sort of the flip side of "I Did It My Way'.

[@josephcoon9914]

Another good Roy Clatvk song is Thank God and Greyhound

[@zevgoldman6769]

I commend you for your analysis and its delivery. It is clear and concise delivered with unfeigned emotion.

[@1956fordss]

Adele has a song, "Million Years Ago" that kind of echos this Roy Clark song. I really like both. I used to watch Hee Haw back in the day solely to see Roy singing and picking. Incredible talent. Later in the early 80s, we used to bicycle through his old neighborhood in Tulsa.

[@davidleatherneck]

Another song he did that was close to my heart is "Thank god and Greyhound she's gone."

[@rodneynoble1147]

Roy Clark playing with Glen Campbell is an absolute genius and arrangement. If you get a chance and can find it, you really need to take a listen.

[@markcain9312]

Glad someone is finally exploring his music. He was a friend of the family for many years my uncle played with his band in the 70s and 80s

[@juliamangan9475]

One of his originals. Thank God and Greyhound She's Gone

[@kylesummers1565]

Back in "the day" I didn't like Roy that much...then I grew up and realized how talented he was.

[@darrenblockersr]

That message is sad when you get old.

[@raymondmoore5476]

A cute song, least to me, is "Thank God & Greyhound". I think you would like it.

[@MySherry10]

the song is great and says the person only thought about themselves and life was all about them and now they are alone ,

[@sherrysaffle6847]

January, April and me is an awesome song he wrote also! My Mom used to play his albums often

[@johnoconnor9343]

Yankee great Mickey Mantle requested that Roy Clark perform this song at his funeral, which Clark graciously agreed to do and it was very moving to see.

[@quentinjones539]

Such a beautiful song, takes me back to my childhood when I first heard it. Thank you for giving it a listen.

[@jerricocke987]

This was wonderful but I really have to suggest that you find an earlier recorded version because that was so much richer and Fuller. As far as other songs the one I remember best is thank God and Greyhound she's gone which is funny.

[@edithdavis2848]

With everyone else find an older version, you can tell the difference.

[@melissapeters2834]

If you haven't yet heard Roy Clark singing "Thank God and Greyhound You're Gone", take a listen! You'll love it!

[@lindanicholson950]

Thank God and Greyhound is a great song by him.

[@kentjohnson3071]
