That's why I listen to only Old country music.So sad the language in today's world.If the language comes on any of the old country I turn it.I was glad she spoke out.
@@davidtillwach5542I remember that interview, she's so right (because I know everything hehe). Same with hippydehop music. If you haven't dicated the year or haven't said the N word within a minute, it ain't hippydehop
Oh gosh when was this recorded? This is why I liked Jean so much. She really meant what she said and made no apologies for it. She was the "real deal" and boy was she talented and good at what she did. Jean said good bye with conviction, courage and honesty enough to move a person to tears. An honest classy lady. RIP Jean.
I can remember when country music was country but now it's all hollering and jumping around ! there are very few good singers left in country music today !
Jean Shepard was right. She spoke the absolute truth, Today's country music is only a reflection of a country that once was real. Rest in peace, Jean Shepard. May the Lord speak well of you in heaven above, on Earth as it is in Heaven. ❤
just learned about this, how sad we lost another one of our great true country singers Also so sad that i never saw this in any newspaper or any news program, another slap in the face to our classic country entertainers and their fans.
She is sooooo Right about the music today!! Just like she was in my brain, been saying it for years. It isnt the same now, just aint. There are a FEW, but not many who are just naturally Great and real, not like they used to be. Meant what she said , and said what she meant, honest about how she felt and certainly didnt care who knew.
She said, “Isn’t that terrible being so truthful?” (0:40) I say, no! It’s a breath of fresh air! I don’t believe in being ugly when speaking your mind. There is a right way and a wrong way to address things but the way she said her opinion wasn’t ugly at all. If more people spoke their mind, the world would be a different and better place. I say, articulate it nicely and plainly and tell the truth as best as you can. I sincerely believe in standing up for right and admonishing wrong. I believe Jean Shepard would too. That’s why I like her. She was honest and truthful in her songs and how she spoke.
Glenn Johnson I spent a whole day with Jean while she was in the UK,around 1980?Won a competition on Radio 2,"Country club",watching her rehearse and chatting,along with Boxcar Willie.We got on like a house on fire as she spoke what i already thought back in 1980 how country music was going even then.God bless her!However,thank goodness that there are a few artists and bands out there that do sing from the same hymnsheet,that perform country in the traditional way.I also perform and keep alive the music of Hank Snow,Johnny Cash,Hank Williams,Lefty Frizzell,Elton Britt.Kenny Roberts,Jimmie Rodgers,Slim Whitman to keep their music and memories alive.Never to be forgotten.RIP Jean.Thank you for all this footage
Precious Mrs. Jean I am just seeing this. Having being raised with yours and many other real country artist, has been a blessing. RIP sweet one and you already said your goodbye, one day to say hello again.
I love that lady and all that she stood for so much! She was the "rose" in the garden for sure. I thank her for all the wonderful music and entertainment she gave me during the years and I'm sure there is a hole in her family that will never be filled. God bless you Mrs Shephard and may God rest your soul!
May I respectfully say I love Ms. Jean's view points, from this here 59 yr old Kentucky man that agrees, ain't no good country music anymore, gotta go back many yrs to find any, & I always Love Jesus First !
RIP, Jean...loved you for years, from the beginning....ever since you started out in Tulare, California......got your Bear family records, and many, many lps....love how you were out there and told it how it was....country will never be the same without you....thank god I have my records of you to play so this WONT" be the last time I hear your voice
Ms Jean told it JUST LIKE IT IS about today's country stuff they call country music. This is THE GREATSEST LADY of REAL COUNTRY MUSIC. I look forward to seeing you again Ms Jean, save me a seat up there, I'll be coming one day.
Totally endorse everything Jean said about today's "country" music, don't know what it is but it's not country as I know it. Farewell to Jean my favourite lady.
She went through so much. Losing her husband Hawkshaw Hawkins in the same plane crash as Pasty Cline. They made it all about Patsy and Jean was 8 months pregnant with their second child. Hawkshaw Hawkins and Cowboy Copeus where big stars of that time. RIP Jean Shepherd. Greatly missed.
She right about country music nowadays .What there playing today is not country music. Like Jean Shepard said you have too have a. Fiddle and steel guitar in real country music.
Glenn Johnson RIP Jean.You got it right,country just ain`t like it used to be but the real stuff is out there.You just have to look harder in different places these days.
When she said the only thing she put before country music was her kids and Jesus, you know she really meant it. She wasn’t doing what county artists do today, and saying that just to patronizingly pander to her fan base.
She don't even look like Jean Shepard here!!! Very opinionated and direct but she's right about the grand ole opry....it isn't what it use to be!!! It's not as good now!!!!!
I don't know exactly how or why it changed, but she's right, it's not the same country music it once was, and that's one of the saddest thing I can think of. :*(
Those so called, country stars of today, Don't have any Talent. They use all the electronic devices today that makes them sound like they do. They couldn't carry a tune if their life depended on it. To me, they all sound alike ! Also none of them have any class today ! Went from Class to Trash ! Sorry for running my mouth. Have a nice day .
Country music today sucks. they all sound the same. It's not country music. I can't stand to listen to it. And I don't listen to it. Loretta Lynn Conway . George jones. Now that's country. You can tell who was who. Today music awful sounding. I got so tired of hearing about beer songs and tractor songs. And all that crap.

When she said country music today is not like country music yesterday I fully totally agree with her 100%.
Yes she right and also in a interview with ken burns she said you need steel guitar and fiddle or you dont have country .
@@davidtillwach5542I remember that interview, she's so right (because I know everything hehe).

Spot on Gary. Jean was an absolute gem. Remembered forever.
The greatest singer and lady that ever lived in my opinion, love you Jean Shephard
She was a class act. I get a little teary. RIP Jean.
Just like the song said "murder was committed down on music row." She was a class act.
My Aunt (Ima) Jean. This brought tears to my eyes, and I'm a 40 year old man...
I can remember when country music was country but now it's all hollering and jumping around ! there are very few good singers left in country music today !
You are my number one lady. I saw you in 1954 when you were on the road in Potlatch, Idaho.
Jean Shepard was right. She spoke the absolute truth, Today's country music is only a reflection of a country that once was real. Rest in peace, Jean Shepard. May the Lord speak well of you in heaven above, on Earth as it is in Heaven. ❤
She is Soo right!!! I'm 69 coming June 16,2024 ,,grew up with good ole country music,,, the music is Not the same these days!!!
just learned about this, how sad we lost another one of our great true country singers Also so sad that i never saw this in any newspaper or any news program, another slap in the face to our classic country entertainers and their fans.
Jean you are going to be missed. Old timey country is the best. I hope you are in paradise!

Loved Jean Shepard released alot. of great songs.She slso doesnt mix words C&W all the way..
Shes so right... believe it or not.... She's still right

"Candy-coated country don't make it." Very true. Same goes for blues.

I met her several times....and she was an amazing performer and person. LOVE MISS JEAN SHEPARD!!!!!!!
There's no such thing as country music anymore. It left us for good in the mid to late 90s.
I consider myself lucky to have seen Jean Shepard "live" in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia many years ago. She was wonderful.
Precious Mrs. Jean I am just seeing this. Having being raised with yours and many other real country artist, has been a blessing. RIP sweet one and you already said your goodbye, one day to say hello again.
As far as i am concerned ever since Jean passed away there is NO MORE Grand Ole Opry
I love that lady and all that she stood for so much! She was the "rose" in the garden for sure. I thank her for all the wonderful music and entertainment she gave me during the years and I'm sure there is a hole in her family that will never be filled.

One of the greatest female artist of all time
RIP, Jean...loved you for years, from the beginning....ever since you started out in Tulare, California......got your Bear family records, and many, many lps....love how you were out there and told it how it was....country will never be the same without you....thank god I have my records of you to play so this WONT" be the last time I hear your voice
Superb! The truth told by a beautiful COUNTRY lady ♥️
Rest In Peace ❤️ I've always loved you and always will. You will be greatly missed
bless her she knew she was going that's why she was saying good bye. O.M.G I'm so sad of that.
Thank you Mrs Sheppard for songs and your voice God bless you Monica from Houston Texas
She is sharp as a tack. I love the way she talks.
She had awesome voice and I loved her
I agree a hundred percent ! Rip jean!
Miss Shepard is right...’Candy Coated’ Country Music just doesn’t cut it. R.I.P. Jean.
Great interview love Jeans records,keith
Country Stars
She made this video just before her death bless her. Rest in peace Jean, it sounds like a good bye to her wonderful friends
She said just what she meant and to hell with anyone who didn't like it. She was a true country gal!
Her voice got better with age. She was awesome. She didn’t put on “airs”. She was what she sang. Country!!!
Love you Jean Shepard.
Great lady! - Thanks for the music!
She was a great singer. I will never forget her.
Ms Jean told it JUST LIKE IT IS about today's country stuff they call country music. This is THE GREATSEST LADY of REAL COUNTRY MUSIC. I look forward to seeing you again Ms Jean, save me a seat up there, I'll be coming one day.
We love you too Jean!! A Class ACT
Mis Jean, while on a break, invited me and Bonnie to sit with her and have a drink. That was a high point in my life.
Totally endorse everything Jean said about today's "country" music, don't know what it is but it's not country as I know it. Farewell to Jean my favourite lady.
Pure Class… And Truth…!!!! The Grand Lady of Country Music..!!!!
We love you and miss you Jean........RIP
country music today is more like rapping
Robert Taylor. Or more like crapping. I can't stand it.
She went through so much. Losing her husband Hawkshaw Hawkins in the same plane crash as Pasty Cline. They made it all about Patsy and Jean was 8 months pregnant with their second child. Hawkshaw Hawkins and Cowboy Copeus where big stars of that time. RIP Jean Shepherd. Greatly missed.
I miss her so much 😭😭😭
TRULY ONE OF THE GRAND LADIES ❤
true class act rip
She's right!!!!!
I agree with you Jean regarding your comment on country music of the past. Not sure what they call it today but it is definitely not country music.
Took me years to discover her but so enjoy her music, she right country music isn,'t the same
What a great lady (R.l.P
In honour of jean I'll leave my half of a peace sign
Agreed...country music is dead...R.I.P....its a damn shame
Love ya Jean. I agree. RIP!
I love Jean Shepard she always speaks her mind
I miss this grand lady
YOU ARE SO MISSED DEAR JEAN..🎸❤
She right about country music nowadays .What there playing today is not country music.
Like Jean Shepard said you have too have a. Fiddle and steel guitar in real country music.
When real Country music is played you will recognize the sound. Today it's watered down R AND R.
100% truth.
RIP GRAND LADY...
I miss jean shepard
Glenn Johnson RIP Jean.You got it right,country just ain`t like it used to be but the real stuff is out there.You just have to look harder in different places these days.
Such a sweet lady. Legend.
When she said the only thing she put before country music was her kids and Jesus, you know she really meant it. She wasn’t doing what county artists do today, and saying that just to patronizingly pander to her fan base.
True country 😮
this lady always spoke from the hip
Agree 100%
God bless american hero❤
I Totally Agree 100% Jean Shepard
Today's Country Is Not Real And True Country Music Just Like The Good Ole Days And In The 80's And 90's
Loved her...
She don't even look like Jean Shepard here!!! Very opinionated and direct but she's right about the grand ole opry....it isn't what it use to be!!! It's not as good now!!!!!
It is like the Geezinslaw Brother's , "You call it country, I call it bad rock 'n' roll !" It started going down hill with Barth I Garth Brooks .
I don't know exactly how or why it changed, but she's right, it's not the same country music it once was, and that's one of the saddest thing I can think of. :*(
Those so called, country stars of today, Don't have any Talent. They use all the electronic devices today that makes them sound like they do. They couldn't carry a tune if their life depended on it.
To me, they all sound alike ! Also none of them have any class today ! Went from Class to Trash !
Sorry for running my mouth.
Have a nice day .
I gave up on country music. Today it's just rock music.
ms. jean was the best
Wow I did not recognize her at all. Last time I seen her was in 70’s.
I Love You,,,,,,,,,,,,,, See You Soon...............
Anyone with blue jeans and a cowboy hat can call themselves a country singer today. They all sound alike. No thank you. I'll stick to old country.
I Agree 100 % !
Weird is not long after this video she croaked. Makes ya wonder if industry helped. IDK.
But she will always be one of my favorite lady artists
I gree, real country music is going to die little by little, Rip Jean.
Things like Garth brooks and these new candy coated groups ruined real country music ... Jean new she was about to die... Getting real old sucks
Country music today sucks. they all sound the same. It's not country music. I can't stand to listen to it. And I don't listen to it. Loretta Lynn Conway . George jones. Now that's country. You can tell who was who. Today music awful sounding. I got so tired of hearing about beer songs and tractor songs. And all that crap.
she looked like she had a stroke !
It was the Parkinsons taking its toll on her. I believe this was a year before her death.
@@gmathisen643 this was a couple of days before she died.
Country music today is like the new rock, pure trash 🗑
The country music these days Is crap
Was she having financial issues?
Jean Shepard's records really show off the songs with a clear voice and timing.
