She had 0 education , poor as dirt, married & pregnant at 14! Self taught writer & guitar player!❤💚💜💙
Yes! The movie of the same name portrays it all soooo well- Sissy Spacek did a phenomenal job!
@@kimberlinibambini1988 Yes!! Sissy sang all those hits herself, too!! I used 2 act out a condensed version at college parties! " Dang it, DOO! I might be ignorant but I ain't STUPID!"🤣🙋
Allison Young yes she did!!! And “oh stop, you sound like a ole bear a growlin’” loved when she’d always tell him that sooo much too! 😂. Tommy Lee Jones was excellent,as always, as well- ✨✨
@@kimberlinibambini1988 😂🤣YES, GURL, YES!!
She had some education. She was poor not poor as dirt.
MAD RESPECT for the Women of Country in the 50’s and 60’s! They fought the male dominated industry and came out on Top!
Loretta Lynn
Dolly Parton
Patsy Cline
Tammy Wynette
And don't forget the lady that made it possible for them, Kitty Wells.
Wanda Jackson
Jean Shepherd
Brenda Lee
Dottie West
Patsy Montana
and all of the assorted Carter women fro Mother Maybelle on down.
Most musical genre's the men dominated and women were relegated to the occasional duets and as backup singers. Gospel music was one of the exceptions at the time. Rock and Roll was worse. Girl groups were seen as novelties and female musicians ate a lot of crap from the chauvinistic men of the days.
@@jeffandrhondaweaver477 I was just going to say that and then I saw that you had! 💗
This is her real life story. You should see the movie they made her early years. She also has a younger sister in Country music Crystal Gale you should react to her music too.
she REALLY likes bologna
Definitely Crystal Gayle 😍🧜♀️ and Eddie Rabbit 🐰🐇
Never knew Crystal was her sister.
Yes! A favorite of mine!!
Jan Lambeth yes Crystal was the baby of the family.
I'm a coal truck drivers daughter from Eastern, Ky! (Pike Co)
Loretta Lynn is my 3rd cousin! Her Daddy and my Pappaw were first cousins!
I was raised up listening to her music and hearing her story! She's definitely someone I grew up respecting and loved ❤
gpa was coal miner from pike ky too , one of my uncles still is, mom said we kin to her from webbs wake back too, used to have a pic me standing on chair with momma singing this song.
Hardin County girl here. We love our loretta
@@dortheystout5929 Live in Hardin Co also but was born in Casey Co. I absolutely adore Loretta Lynn.
@@lisawilham-pepper i was born on fort knox. All my family is around radliff and a bit further down. At keast its nit a dry county anymore lol
Kentucky girl too!
Her Movie (Coal Miners Daughter) is a must watch!
Loretta and Dolly’s story are very close yet, they are the most positive people!
You definitely need to watch the movie it is heartbreakingly beautiful!
I know the entire script!😅💔Luv it!
Yes!!! A fav of mine!
It was amazing. Classic.
Girl, NOW YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE MOVIE!!!!!! It’s one of my all time favorites!!! ❤️
Yes! Mine too!
Levon Helm and Cissie Spacek are PERFECT in those roles.
@@danpatterson6937 Tommy Lee Jones played Moony Lynn.
@@SchoeneTante Yes and he was very good in that part. Levon Helm was Loretta's dad in the movie.
@@danpatterson6937 it was a fantastic movie all around. ⁰
Wow, I forgot what a beautiful woman she was! Loretta is one of the queens of country music. Also listen to 'You Ain't Woman Enough' by Loretta.
And "Fist City".
She's still beautiful, still making music!
She is THE QUEEN
Oh! You must see the movie “Coal Miners Daughter.” Sissy Spacek played Loretta- an all time favorite movie of mine- phenomenal acting! 🧡❤️✨
What's so super about the movie is that the actresses playing Loretta and Patsy actually did the singing.
@@dgeneeknapp3168 yes! Absolutely
Loretta grew up in poverty, like many Americans. Her life story is in the song.
My dad's mother was born in the coal camp Rhodell, West Virginia in McDowell County. How it worked then in the coal mines, the coal company had monopolies on housing, transportation and all goods they could buy. So the miner would have to go to the company store to get what they needed and pay rent in the house they lived in, but because they were all company owned, the miner would have to pay the coal company back at interest.
Sure, they got a little money, the coal company got a little more back. There was a famous riot at Matewan, West Virginia. Miners and their families were being evicted and the miners organized the coal strike and the coal company hired Baldwin-Felts agency and law enforcement to shoot miners.
So being a coal miner's daughter or son was a matter of pride for them. And just like Doolittle Lynn said in the movie "You born in the mountains you got three choices, coal mine, moonshine or move it on down the line".
Thank you for reacting to this one. Coal keeps the lights on.
There's a good movie about the Matewan strike by John Sayles. It's appropriately enough named Matewan.
sounds like "I owe my soul to the company store"
Often the coal companies paid the miners in company script.
My Daddy was born in a coal camp in Mingo Co, WV. The feds didn't just shoot miners, they dropped bombs on them, first and only time the US gvt bombed citizens. They were paid in scrip only. And when my great grandfather died, the company said the eldest boy had to take his place in the mines; my grandfather was 12 years old when he was made to go down in those mines. It's no damn wonder they went on strike.
@@HappyCats17 under what president did that happen?
You should see the movie Coal Miner’s Daughter.
I was just going to comment about the movie. It is one of my favorites.
I have seen it well over 200 times and I know the script by heart.
It is a wonderful movie.
Sissy Spacek ( Loretta Lynn) and Beverly D'Angelo (Patsy Cline) did all their own singing and were amazing .
I was going to say the same thing. India you really need to watch the movie--you will absolutely love it!
It is a story of Loretta Lynn's life and let's just say she is quite the woman and the movie does not even show it all!
This song is 100% a true story about her childhood and how they lived in the country hills far from any town or city growing up with no running water, no electricity, no bathroom, no stores and VERY little money if any.....each of life's little conveniences...(like shoes in the winter)....provided by her parents HARD work was a gift and blessing.....Loretta NEVER forgot where she came from, regardless how large and popular she became.
My momma grew up this way. I can not here this song without crying. Loretta was my mom's favorite female artist of all time. When Loretta Lynn passed away it felt like losing my mom all over again .
Loretta Lynn is the co-queen of all female singers no matter what genre you choose (Patsy Cline is the other). I saw her in concert and she has one of the most powerful voices I have ever heard. Not too many can sing the way Loretta does. You should react to some of her classics like 'You Aint Woman Enough,' 'Don't Come Home a Drinkin,' 'Love is the Foundation,' and a more recent one like her duet with Jack White from the band The White Stripes called 'Portland, Oregon,' and some not so well known ones like 'Married Ladies' from her album called Who Was that Stranger! I could go on and on...................
A lot of us can't appreciate what previous generations went through. My Mom just passed three months ago (at 93). She was raised during the Depression on a farm in Oklahoma. Similar story - my grandma washed clothes with a washboard in water she got hot on a wood stove. Same with taking baths. Mom said she had so many chores she had to do before and after school including getting water from a well for the family and bringing in firewood. They had oil lamps for light and the only entertainment was music they made themselves. When she was 13 they moved to California and worked as farm laborers. After school in the fall my Mom would be in the fields with the rest of her family picking cotton (until her fingers bled). Again, most of us just can't understand what like was like for our older generations.
My grandparents grew up on farms in Oklahoma and moved to Washington state in the early 40s. A few years before she died, I asked Grandma what was she most proud of and she said that none of her kids ever had to pick cotton.
In 1986 she performed on USO tour on Camp Hialeah, Pusan, Korea. She was filming for ''Loretta Lynn`s Christmas Card `86''. Her son Jack served in Korea and drowned on their ranch in 1984. The death prevented her from doing a USO tour but she needed to get back to Korea for the troops. I am glad she did. To me the USO tour brought a piece of home 6700 miles. Another great I got to see was Bob Hope in Saudi Arabia and that's only 7200 miles! I give thanks to all the entertainers who travel for the troops.
That line about getting a new pair of shoes in wintertime always gets me. We were lucky enough to have everything we needed. Even if we were a little crowded we got three carefully measured squares a day and the hand-me-downs did their job. But we did have to wait for Autumn to get our new pair of shoes and one good dress for the year. She'd put them on the Sears card and pay it off over the year. My mom would "help" me pick out a dress but they were almost old fashioned and I felt so embarrassed whenever I had to wear it. But I'd never mention it since she tried so hard to keep us pretty and decent and I couldn't hurt her feelings. But oh, how self-conscious all year round at church or any special occasion when I'd have to wear it. I'd hope next year's would be better. So this part of the song about the love of the dad and mom finding some way to get the kids new clothes...man I get weepy!
Ms. Lynn ADORED her daddy, and he adored her.
Tammy Wynette. Stand by your man. Love the country singing ladies. My Aunty was a massive country & western fan. Sadly she is gone, but these songs bring her right back here with me.
'Apartment Number Nine' and 'Your Good Girl's Gonna Go Bad'.
That is the Coal Miner's Daughter that was her life for real I'd love that song without fails it gives me the chills thank you for reacting to it
I love the way that she makes “tired” rhyme with “hard”.
That's always been my favorite part. It came so naturally too. She genuinely said the words with her accent and that's how they came out.
Me too!! And it fits with the accent. Love it!
She wrote this song about her life, in her dialect, and when it came time to record it, they didn't want to go back and make it "proper". Her song writing, her singing, her life... she's always been like that. It is now March of 2021, Loretta Lynn will be 89 next month, and she JUST RELEASED HER 3RD PROJECT THIS YEAR! A BOOK, A RE-RELEASE 50th ANNIVERSARY EDITION ALBUM, AND A BRAND NEW #1 ALBUM THIS PAST WEEKEND! YES, SHE IS STILL WRITING AND RECORDING #1 HITS AFTER 60 YEARS!
My Grandma was country... from a rural area of North Carolina. My Grandpa was from the mountains of Virginia. A lot of people in my extended family pronounce tired as "tard".
I'm from Kentucky. Tired does rhyme with hard. What are you talking about?
Reminds me of that fine old Southern saying, "All my family ever had was family ".
My Mamaw use to say this. 😍
India, you just stumbled upon country music royalty! Loretta is the best all time female performer imo. She has worked hard her whole life and deserves every bit of her accomplishments. Keep reacting to Loretta. I think you’ll appreciate a lot of her music.
She wrote this song. It IS about HER life growing up. She wrote a book about it, and there was a movie made about it, COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER. Mrs. Lynn grew up poor, married at 14, had 3 of 6 children by 21, pushed into and encouraged to continue a music career by her husband (dedpite being a womanizing, abusive, alcoholic KNEW she could make it and continuously encouraged her. She actually ended up loving that career), and is now 88 years old, still releasing albums, and has a net worth of $85million. Still VERY down to Earth, humble, country girl who refers to her fans as her friends, remembering they are the ones who made and keep her successful.
Loretta, like Dolly wrote her own songs from the heart of her life, these ladies told the stories of their life in their songs! Thanks for a great reaction! Please do more of these ladies of country, I promise you'll learn a lot from them. Thanks!
Loretta Lynn is a Queen! She is in her 90s now and still recording music. Old school country at its best.
I am happy to see people really listening to this song from Loretta Lynn. There are people in our country that come from these roots that are today struggling with the changes as coal is displaced by other sources of energy production. Roots ...
I remember the night she told David Letterman she loved squirrel meat. Loretta never changed from that little girl. Married Doo after a month at 13yrs. She said in an interview it was raining the day her and Doolittle married and her mother told her if it rains the day you get married it's all the tears drops you'll shed in your marriage. Loretta said Mommy was about right, she had cried that much over the years with him, but she loved him all those years. Fame and money never changed her and unfortunately didn't bring her happiness as one would think. But all that aside she has given us a gift with her songs, written with such raw honesty...can't think of a writer to equal. Thanks for spotlighting LL, she's one of my all time favorites.
My wife's grandfather and Loretta's father were brothers. Used to go up to eastern Kentucky for family reunions and all the Webbs would come. Loretta and her sister Brenda(Crystal Gayle) would sing gospel songs and tell stories. Great people. Takes a special person to live that life. No way I would go down into a coal mine.
Nobody can beat Loretta Lynn. The Queen of Country Music.
This song represents my mom's life story. She loved her daddy and he was a West Virginia coal miner and he was my hero as a boy. People don't know poor unless you grew up dirt poor in the Appalachian mountains. My grandmothers first husband was killed in a coal mine accident leaving her a widow with three small kids. The company he worked for evicted her out of company housing within days of his death. I got the opportunity to drive ny grandfather back home to West Virginia for a family reunion in the mid 80's. It was the trip of a lifetime and I learned to NEVER depend on the government or anyone else in this life. I got to see so many amazing, and sometimes heartbreaking things. One of his siblings who died as a child and the effort to build a homemade coffin for him because there was no money to buy one. A chance to tour a coal mine and see first-hand the horrid conditions those men endured. It was lesson I've never forgotten. I dont care who you are, we don't have things hard these days. Be profoundly grateful our elders worked so hard to give us so much.
My mom had a 3 year old and was pregnant when her husband was killed underground in Mountain Park collieries in western Alberta Canada in the thirties. She was evicted from the small company house right after his death. So many men killed underground in those mines. Heartbreaking for the families.
Gotta say, I got burnt out of "reaction videos." Same formula, folks listen to songs some of us grew up listening to, get orgasmic look, and fawn over it. Now & again you can see folks truly impressed. Never saw this channel before. I LOVE that you can tell she is really listening to and processing the words! Think I'll check out more videos. Glad I listened to my suggested videos.
BTW for history, Loretta was IMHO the true Queen of Country Music. She was the 1st female CMA Entertainer of the Year!! Her dear friend Patsy Cline had started opening those doors, but Loretta kicked em down for good!!
My KY girl here. Levon Helm from The Band played her dad in the movie.
That was Levon Helm?? I LOVE The Band. He was also in The Right Stuff.
Of all the classic country music ladies, she has been and always will be my favorite! Luv' Loretta Lynn! Sad truth, we STILL have coal miners and their poor little kids; many dirt poor people up in the hills still. She had a famous mentor that took her under her wing, Patsy Cline was her best friend and really helped her break into country music. Thanks for taking me back to my childhood!
Watch the MOVIE! Sissy Spacek did a great job portraying Loretta Lynn!! She spent a year with Loretta on tour learning her songs and mannerisms. They can't even hold a conversation in the same room now because Sissy automatically jumps into character...even to the point of finishing Loretta's sentences!😂
She didn't hit the stage until 1961, about 2 years AFTER her Daddy died, so he never got to see his COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER on stage.😭
My wife's grandfather was her dad's brother. We would go to family reunions at Jenny Wiley park near Prestonburg Ky and she and her sister Brenda would be there. They are salt of the earth. Never got above their raising.
Thank you....this is the queen of country music.....great singer, songwriter....prolific. This is true country and real life.
I relate to this song so much. Life is hard in those mountains, people just got by but rarely complained. Women worked their fingers to the bone, hard physical labor, tough as nails women. Most had one baby after another, one on the hip one on the way. My granny's cash crop was tobacco. We all worked the fields or we didn't eat the following winter. We got one day a week off and that was Sunday for church. Just a diff kind of Harlem honey. I just can't understand what is going on today, these kids need to see what they got and find their opportunities and love and understand one another. People are the worlds greatest commodities.
one of the greatest songs ever. reaches everyone who ever was poor. grew up 7 of us in a 2 bedroom in the projects, and, this song hits right home. I thought i was the richest kid growing up, and, you know what? I was.
I have always loved that song and movie. Sissy Spacek did a wonderful job playing her.
obdiane I agree
Loretta is still recording. She released a new album last year or the year before. During recording she had a stroke and had to stop work to rehab. I have the finished album. You absolutely cannot tell she ever had a stroke.
Mama & Daddy Loved Loretta Lynn. I grew up on a tobacco farm with a one speaker transistor radio in our farmhouse kitchen playing this song in the summer's heat breezes thru our windows and the cold winters thru the maple and oak leaf-bare trees wind whistling outside. We worked hard for our family but love was there always. :)
Always adored and respected Lorretta. She became the Queen of country music for a reason, but she never forgot her beginnings and stayed very humble as a result. You should check out the movie about her early life Coal Miners Daughter. Sissy Spacek gave an amazing performance. Lorretta's younger sister Crystal Gail also made quite a name for herself in the country music business. I Still remember her trademark insanely long hair, just like Cher's in the old days. Thank you for doing this.
I'm a real live coal miners daughter.. From Wear Virginia, he was a coal miner until 1984 when I graduated high school, of course by that time they made better money & I was an only child, since my daddy passed I tear up every time I hear this song.. Lots of love from Florida ❤
I’ve heard this song my entire life but just tonight watched the movie. I thought I’d seen it but I was remembering a different Sissy Spacek movie I guess (I’ll have to ask my Mom) because I can’t believe I’ve gone this long without realizing just how much Loretta accomplished.
I knew she was “dirt poor” growing up but I had no idea how controversial some of her music was in the 60’s & 70’s. As if she wasn’t already respected, knowing her story growing up & what she did w her life & her platform at a time when women simply didn’t have an opinion, much less one that wasn’t popular w men, is even more extraordinary.
I hope you watched the movie because the song will hit even closer to home than it already does. Like I said, I’ve heard the song my whole life (born in the 70’s) & I just now fully understand how much she accomplished. It’s pretty damn amazing.
I love this lady and her music
She is THE QUEEN OF COUNTRY MUSIC!
Loretta Lynn's little sister, Crystal Gayle, was also a fantastic country singer. River Road, Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue.
The absolute queen of country music!.
This is the type of song/ life style that many people today don’t understand. You work hard so your kids don’t have to. You go hungry so your family can eat. You may not have what you want but you have what you need.
This girl loves me Some Ms. Lynn. The movie is amazing and she is still kicking it with music at 89.
People from our generation and younger have NO IDEA what it's like to be poor and struggle. This was really how Loretta grew up.
RIP First Lady Of Country Mrs. Loretta Lynn.
You GOTTA watch the movie!!! BTW, Sissy Spacek And Beverly D’Angelo really sang all of Loretta and Patsy’s songs! AMAZING! One of my all time favorite movies!!!
My Mommy and Daddy worked hard and gave us so much and so much love. They are both gone now and I wish I could say I love you just one more time. Let go of all but love and you will be happy in life.
Loretta is country royalty . She also teamed up with Conway Twitty for a few duets . If you haven’t checked him out yet you should .
Louisiana woman Mississippi man was a big hit for them .
If you want check him out
Slow hand
That’s my job
Linda on my mind
It only make believe *****
We’re all good tunes .
Buggy Muggawhump
I forgot about that one 😂
The movie Coal Miners Daughter won the oscar for best picture and Sissy Spaceck won best actress for her portrayal of Loretta. Loretta pick Sissy out personally as she said her freckles reminded her of herself. You should also try listening to her sister singer Crystal Gale. She has as an incredible voice too. Her songs Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue, Cry, He's Beautiful To Me
I am glad you are so open to listening to every type of music. So many people put down other genres simply because they don't like the style or singer.
I Love Loretta Lynn She Is #1 In My Eyes
Greatest country singer...love her so much
I haven`t heard this song in years. Thanks for posting. I love it.
Rest in peace Loretta Lynn. You're a legend
The brilliance of her writing... 'The work we done was hard, at night we'd sleep cause we were tard' (tired).....
That was Loretta's life growing up they were dirt poor but they definitely had love. Her dad died a young man with coal miner's lungs back in the day. We all know what she became but she never forgot where she came from.
This song is all about her life they made a movie about it called Coal Miners Daughter I have been to Loretta Lynn's ranch in Tennessee and there is a creek that runs in front of her home and there is a bridge across to a replica of her home and the small settlement where she grew up called Butchers Hollow or as she pronounces it Holler and you deserve the 200 k
Her sister is the legendary Ms Crystal Gayle....don't get envious of her amazing hair 😍 it's incredible...
One of the old school Queens of country. The song doesn't say, but the audience would have known just how dangerous her dad's work was, too-there was always the threat he'd be killed in the mine. This song reminds me of Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors. You have to listen to the older country singers who grew up poor but with strong ties to family & community, and knew real struggle to get country-many of the reasons people traditionally look down on it now are because of that background, imo.
One of my favorite gals of country music. This song has been my go to first song karaoke choice to warm my voice up to.
Thank you for presenting the music of this incredible ion: Loretta Lynn. She certainly set the path for many artists, including men. There's a reason why she's the first female to win Entertainer Of The Year in 1971; the first female country artist to be certified a Gold LP from RIAA; the first to have a successful biographical movie...the list goes on. I had the incredible opportunity to meet this lady twice...loved her then and to this day.
I love this song.
LORETTA IS A GODDESS!!!
This is actually a true story about Loretta Lynn. There is also a movie that came out in 1980 based on Lorreta Lynn's life called "The Coal Miner's Daughter". Sissy Spaceck plays Loretta Lynn and Tommy Lee Jones plays Loretta Lynn's husband, Doolittle Lynn.
I reccomend doing a reaction to Loretta Lynn's baby sister, Crystal Gayle singing her signature song, "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue".
Loretta Lynn is one of my favorites
This woman is a treasure.
Watch the movie and you will see a different perspective of a world we today can't understand, which in reality isn't so long ago. This lady is tough as nails and grew up in a time where you either became hardened and survived or you were taken advantage of and left to the chance's life brings, which were usually not that great. Can't recommend the movie Coal Miners Daughter to everyone enough, it's a fantastic look at hard working America and the struggles and consequences of that life.
One of her 7 siblings was her sister Krystal Gale. She had many hits as well. My favorite is "Just You and I" with Eddie Rabbit. One of the greatest duets ever in my opinion.
Oh this is my girl love Loretta and her sister
Loretta has always been one of my favorite singers!! No matter how famous she became she’s always stayed close to her roots. I took my girls to see her in concert not long after she broke her hip & she came out in one of her beautiful dresses. She sat in a chair & took requests from the audience & visited with different people. After the show I’m sure she was tired but her granddaughter took a few people on her bus to meet her. She was the sweetest to my girls!! Gave them a memory to last a lifetime.
I have been by Van Lear and went up Butcher Hollow and her brother gave tours of the house before he died. It is just outside Paintsville, Kentucky.
Almost forgot to add that she inspired almost every female country artist that came after her, including Miss Reba McEntire
The Queen of Country.
Love Ms. Loretta seen her in concert a few times, amazing.. My mom is a coal miners granddaughter and daughter and was born in a coal miners town. Her grandfather ran it the mine and her dad was supervisor.
Loretta Lynn is country music royalty. This is her story. India, if you haven't seen the movie (starring Sissy Spacek), it's worth checking out.
Darling India she was a millionaire twice over by the time she wrote this song. She NEVER forgot where she came from.
I'm ashamed to say it but I didn't know who Loretta Lynn was until I saw the movie Coal Miner's Daughter, I was a teenager and was bored, nothing else was on so I watched it that was my introduction to her. After seeing it, I wanted to learn more about her and hear more of her music so I looked her up and listened to more. Now she's my favorite female Country singer.
This and the 70's was the best era of true country music. Stuff today is just country-pop music. Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard and the boys.
I agree with a lot of the commenters' comments: you must watch the movie. Cissy spacek played loretta Lynn, did her own singing, and sounds just like Lynn. It's an academy award winning movie. Her sister is Crystal Gail, another wonderful singer. Loretta lynn is a character, tough country through and through.
Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gayle are first cousins of Patty Loveless! Through Patty’s dad and Loretta and Crystal’s mother. Patty’s dad was also a coal miner and died of Black Lung. Patty’s song “You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive” talks about her dad! I’m a long time fan of all three of these ladies!
Love Loretta! Thank You for sharing this and Your thoughts! GOD Bless You!
I’m proud to be a Coal Miners Daughter ❤
This is her true story..They even still have the cabin they were raised on.A museum
She had a replica of the cabin she grew up in in kentucky bilt on her estate in tennessee and said she spends more time in that cabin than she does the mansion.
You are looking absolutely beautiful. Love your hair sis. 💜😊
I think most of us growing up in Southeastern Kentucky lived that way.
I remember this song from the movie back in the day with the same title based on her real life's story. The role of Loretta Lynn was acted by Sissy Spacek, and the role of her husband Oliver "Mooney" Lynn was acted by Tommy Lee Jones.
"The work we done was hard, at night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired". Gotta have that accent for that rhyme to work.
No complaining it's just the way life was for her and a lot of others. But those type of folk were raised on love. And just like
her, Love is enough.
She was the queen of country music. Her Duets with Conway Twitty were pretty good... check After The Fire Is Gone. Some of Conway’s best sings are I See the Want To In Your Eyes, Hello, Darlin’, You’ve Never Been This Far Before.
The present day youth think that we were/are 'privilaged', but we worked hard to make things better for them and everybody. Change takes time to better things.
I remember having to make my own toys and entertainment when I was young. The tech was not there then for what we have now. People just dot on with life/things. Everything is all laid on for them [youth] now and they still complain thinking they are hard done by! Of course 99% don't know the meaning of the words! Dolly Parton wrote about her 'Coat of many colours' [made from donated rags] and Elivis grew up in a dirt poor area too but they never complained nor forgot where they came from.
