I’m nearing the end of my life and every time I listen to this song I’m reminded of my youth. Mom and dad were alive and my brothers and sister were living at home. I feel like I was born at the right time. To the future I say this. “ Enjoy the music my generation left you”.
This is an understatement (forgive me), but Glen Campbell was an outrageously talented musician. Not only on guitar, but the tone of his voice. What a talent. Rest in peace Glen.
This is the America that I love, that I admired during my college years in the 70s. But that America has changed. Glen Campbell was the symbol of the good things that America gave to the world. I wish those days would come back one day. RIP Glen, your music is immortal.
Yes American has changed. During the mid 70s 1973-1977 I was in the United States Marine Corps. I've been around the world. But I always thought of my little hometown of Charleston, West Virginia. My late Dad was big Glenn Campbell fan. We never missed Glenn's weekly TV show Glenn.
Good God Glenn What a song, I'm 71 years old and never get tired of listening to Glenn sing this song. God bless you Gleand God bless us all. Fred Rodriguez 2023
Noreason to be afraid of dying.. Just remember it's not what you leave behind. It's just everything you leave behind and your kids and everything. You know, my Grandpa always told me if you're gonna do something do, right? Don't leave a stain, leave a legacy
Reminds me of my youth. Living room stereo, mom and dad, roaring fireplace, dark winters night. A happier time for me. I had some difficult days in the times of my life, we all have, yes.
In 1964 they put a radio tower across the highway from our family's farm. I was 7. My parents gave me this little diode radio that u put together. It had a single ear phone and I started listening at nite ,laying in my bed .staring out the window at the bllinking red lite at the top of the tower .
My dad was a black man born in Harlem and raised in southern Virginia and then Pittsburgh. He loves loved music. Glen Campbell was one of if not his favorite
Thirty years ago. I took a small jet to turn myself in at Allenwood Federal Prison Camp to do some time. I used to listen to this song because I had left without saying goodbye to anyone. We had a lake, a bocce court and gym, no fences and an old abandoned church with cemetery we could use. I became successful after I got out and now I'm retired. Songs like these make you travel back in time.
I am 83 and retired 20 ago after several million miles as a trucker music was my favorite , raised in Detroit by a country couple from KY I still fell in love with motown an rock & roll and country music , Glen Campbell was the best of the best he could make a great singer and one of the best musicians, he played back up for so many groups.
i have an uncle that drove the rigs forever and in retirement got calls to drive local and probably still does a few local. Y'all know some great music with all the hours on the road. thanks for keeping America MOVING FORWARD in all conditions and for all the times you saved a girl like me on the roads back and forth between university in Austin to visit my people in the DFW metroplex .
With the entire Orchestra required to accompany any given Glen Cambel song, let us not forget to show appreciation to the drummer/backup singer. The most difficult instrument to play and sound decent singing. Good job sir
My brother told me to listen to this and I said yes I've heard it a million times bruv he said it's the best love song ever I listen every time and think my brother is right it's so beautiful and hurting song I love it and god bless you Mr Glenn Campbell xx from my brother and me
Someone once said about Glen Campbell that he had more talent than the law allows. That is an understatement! I don't believe we will ever see the likes of someone like him come our way anytime soon.
I saw Glen in concert at a casino showroom, maybe late 70’s or early 80’s and he was tossing out a few signed frisbees; I didn’t catch one but wanted it so badly, I offered $100 to someone who caught one . To this day, my husband mocks me for it but I still have the frisbee!
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel, better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will put a smile on your face..
I love that Jimmy Webb wrote the first two verses of "Wichita Lineman," and Glen and his band just went into the studio and recorded the incomplete song as-is. Jimmy was stunned when Glen told him, "oh, yeah, we finished that recording" while Jimmy was still working on a bridge and third verse.
For me, growing up listening to various rock groups, Glen Campbell was not cool. Hearing him now, I realize he was one of the best song writers ever, AND a phenomenal guitar player.
I did grow up to rock too, but I remember this was played when I was a kid, and I certainly thought back then it was beautiful and I still freaking do. And I also loved Rhinestone Cowboy by him and Southern Nights. So, yes he was no rock, but he was cool. Way cool
I was just 17 when By the Time I Get to Phoenix came out!! Of course I was a huge Beatles etc fan ...but hearing Glen Campbell for the first time, I just fell in love with his voice and songs. Listening to these brings back many memories. Now I am way older and still love listening to this amazing talent!! Glen Campbell you were just amazing and I loved you !!
I remember having my transitor radio on listening to this on my first day of Jr. High!🤩. So grateful to have grown up with the BEST MUSIC of any generation! We had it all - hard rock, folk music, pop & jazz. ✌🏽😎
Again, I have to confess that I was too stupid in the 60's and 70's to appreciate Glen Campbell. I grew up with siblings born from '48 to '53, but I was born much later. I wish that I'd had the musical maturity to know that Glen Campbell was a genius on the guitar with an exceptional voice and the man he gave to us all. God bless him , his family and all of us that love his memory and the talent that he's passed to his progeny...
@@jeffreyleohner3247when you combine his vocal and guitar ability he is one of the greatest performers and musicians of all time. You could argue that he is the greatest and you would not have a weak argument
We lived several years in the USA. We still like his Voice and the Country Music of Glen, every week on TV in 1970 to 1980. We miss him.... very much. Helga and Klaus Ballnus Germany
My Mom loved Glen Campbell and played all his albums while us four girls were growing up. When she was 83, I bought a Bose stereo system and got all the same albums on CDs so she could listen to them easily. After she passed in 2015, it took a few years before I could listen to Glen Campbell without crying because I missed her so much. But I love his music so much - especially “These Days” - a song written by Jackson Browne when he was only 16 years old. And so many other great songs. ❤
If I only could go back to 1970 when Glen came through my small hometown in Northern California on tour. I kick myself now for not going to his concert at that time.
Have such wonderful memories of listening to Glen Campbell, one of my mom's favorites. The the end of her life, she had Alzheimer's but she could since every word of those songs we listened to so many times. Thank you, Glen Campbell, and Jimmy Webb, for this song and so many memorable songs from "back in the day"! Great memories for me of my mom and good times! Miss you, mom! 💞
I know I was an exception. When I was in the Marines, when everyone else kept pictures of family and current pictures of early '70's rock and roll stars in their rooms, I had a picture of Glen Campbell. I used to dream of being like the "Rhinestone Cowboy". Unfortunately, reality set in and the dreams were all that were left. Thank you, Glen, for my dreams. RIP.
A while ago I was playing golf at Arizona Country Club. We had a foursome and there was this twosome waiting behind us. It was Glen Campbell and the local pro. Glen was a total gentleman.
I went to nursing school in Galveston in the early 70's. Every juke box in town had the song. Glen did a lot for Galveston with the song. It takes me back....to some of the most wonderful tines of my life. Young love, growing up, beginning to understand life.
Always love Glen Campbell reminds me of listening to the music with my parents.They are both gone now ,it brings me to tears happy and sad at the same time . I don’t have a family anymore,they tried to destroy me ,but they can’t take my heart and appreciation for great music !
Hi , same here ....hate from unhinged family ongoing , lost the two good ones , 'died'.........Saw Glen 7 daughter in 1987 ??? in australia, just loved them , still do.....good luck to you wherever U R.......Art, Aust.
Without one of the all time greats in whatever music genre you want him to be in.They dont and never will ever make music like this,that is full of emotion and transports us back in time when the world we live in was very different
When this was popular, I was so busy raising children and working full time that I didn’t appreciate the lyrics. Now that I’m 80, I realize what I missed all those years ago.
My 1st concert I ever seen. Glen was my start into country music. Concert was early 70's, and was amazing back then. Each song over the years has a special memory for me. As I have aged, his voice takes me back through the years. May GOD bless him.
I was fortunate to attend a tribute concert by Jimmy Webb, before Glen passed away. Jimmy told stories of how he first met Glen, and how they became such close friends afterwards. Jimmy is a very talented singer-songwriter.
I'm 59 years old and lost my mother recently. She live with me and my family foe a long time and she loved country music. I wished I had watched some of these videos with her. She would have loved them. I love reading the comments of all the people on here and the stories of their lives. I grew up in upstate NY and this music takes me back to the hot summer days and nights in the 70's at my grandparents and watching Hee-Haw, or any number of the variety of shows on at the time (Donny and Marie, Sonny and Cher, etc.) and seeing all the music acts. Who knew we had it so good? Keep the stories coming. I love reading them.
Otherwordly music written by Jimmy Webb and sang by Glen. This song meant much to me when it first came out. I cried every time I heard it, it was so relatable to me. My boyfriend left me, and I was devastated..............but in time he came back. And married me. I love happy endings.
I've just heard the most uplifting story when Glen came to my home town of Halifax, England in the 1980s Glen enjoyed his time in Halifax having the chraic with the locals before his sell out concerts. He frequented the pub the Plummet Line on a few occasions enjoying the local ales. So much so that the lass working behind the bar cooked him apple pie of which he looked forward to on his return, on his request. (Halifax Courier have an excellent article) I personally had to see Glen and did so in Manchester on his last tour of the UK. Boy, that was some emotional concert. God bless you Glen. X
I'm 70 years old and my generation Knew how to make music. I'm proud of my generation. I lived the best days. I was born at the right time. The generation now they have nothing. There's nothing to remember and kids being born. Today are born into nothing but problems.
Dewi, there are also a lot of kids with great resilience and skills who are seriously kicking goals and contributing to the world. ty 4 ur gr8 music Glen
Galveston and Jimmy Webb perfectly capture a moment in time back in 1968 when so many young men were in Vietnam wondering if their girl back home was still waiting for them. I was 18 in 1968 and that poor GI sitting on a hilltop firebase in Vietnam could have been me.

I'm 70 years old and my generation Knew how to make music. I'm proud of my generation. I lived the best days. I was born at the right time. The generation now they have nothing. There's nothing to remember and kids being born. Today are born into nothing but problems.
Dewi, there are also a lot of kids with great resilience and skills who are seriously kicking goals and contributing to the world. ty 4 ur gr8 music Glen
My favorite decade was the '70s.
Not true. There's some beautiful music being made.

This man brought color, the story of love’s struggles, and beautiful music to our lives. He was top drawer, one of the very best.
Aww i love this so much and reminds me of family happiness in my home Dundee, Scotland ❤❤❤
I still love this song Love Glen Campbell.
Takes me back to my youth…
Galveston and Jimmy Webb perfectly capture a moment in time back in 1968 when so many young men were in Vietnam wondering if their girl back home was still waiting for them. I was 18 in 1968 and that poor GI sitting on a hilltop firebase in Vietnam could have been me.
Yet another Glen Campbell classic. Thanks so much, Glen.
Southern Nights was my favorite
