I went to see Reba a few years back...I waited the whole concert for "Fancy". She did so many songs then she said goodbye and was gone....we kept clapping....kept yelling...all the sudden the stage was black and a spot light came on...there was Reba standing on the stage in her red glittery red slit up the side dancing dress....she started singing "Fancy"..it gave me chills!!
Coreen I saw Reba several years ago and she did something similar. She came on stage wearing the fur coat and started to sing Fancy. Part way through the song she pulled the coat off and she was wearing that red dress! Oh man it was amazing! Love her!
I got to see her in a huge stadium do that song, she was driven back into the arena in an old style taxi and she walked out in that dress with the fur stoal. Goosebumps and tears!
Happens every day somewhere..I can still remember the day, 67 years ago, when I and my mother were on our 4th or 5th day without food..Everyone slammed doors or just told us to leave. A woman gave us 2 slices of bread. My father died in a logging accident and we were trying to walk from the edge of, what is today, the Danial Boone National Forrest to Lexington Ky to find relatives. We laid down in an apple orchard by Nicholasville, ky I think it was. I was 6. My mother never woke up the next morning. I just sat next to her and waited. It was a long time before a car stopped and found us... I was brought to a horrible institution in Frankfort, Ky, but I have no idea what happened to my mother.I can sooooo relate to this song.. A long 12 years after that...
What a terrible thing to go through and how incredibly sad that you lost your mother the way you did. And your father was evidently killed in an accident on the job and his employers just turned you and your mother out to starve to death? That employer has a lot to answer for in the hereafter. As the widow and orphan of a man who was killed in his employ, that monster should have seen to it that you and your mother were provided for and instead he just turned you out. See, I have never been sure that there is a hell but then I see someone who clearly deserves to be there. Your story breaks my heart. I cannot stand to even think of a little girl sitting beside the body of her dead mother waiting for she knows not what.... I'm assuming the "horrible institution" you refer to was some sort of children's home and it is a serious indictment of all of us that a place designated for children who are orphans should be a "horrible institution". Why can't loving, compassionate, nurturing people work in those places? I hope your life has treated you much better since that horrible start and that you have managed to find happiness.
@@fighthypocrites7036 I'm a bit confused by this comment. I think your compliment is really intended for Pat Welch because she is the one whose mother and father both died and she survived. My name is there just because I responded to Pat's story. Go back and check this again and see if you didn't intend for this to go to Pat. I will take any compliment that is due me but I just don't think I am entitled to this one.
@@maryannanderson7517 I replied to the wrong person. No need for you to be confused. I am enough for both of us. I'm gonna delete that and repost. But you deserve good things, too. So you keep that wish.
That was the time Susan Sugarbaker threw her baton (which was on fire in the the Ms Georgia pageant) so high it hit a transformer, she caught it....That was the night that the lights went out in Georgia.
She actually got into movies because of her music first one I ever saw was tremors with Kevin Bacon. Then a movie with Kenny Rogers and I think she did a movie based on her is there life out there song. A whole 10 yrs before the Reba t.v show. But you are right she's one of the Queen's of country.
Reba is a queen. Some of my favorites are "For My Broken Heart", "If I Had Only Known," "The Heart Won't Lie", "And Still", "It's Your Call" and "Why Haven't I Heard From You." Honestly, she has SO many amazing songs that it's hard to choose!
This song always brings me to tears. A lot of us know all to well what it feels like to grow up without. I appreciate the small things in life so much more. I promised myself that my child would NEVER know the pains of hunger........ever.
I promised the same to my 3 sons. Even if I had to work 2 or 3 jobs & there was a few times I had to go to a food bank, but they were/are my everything. They’re grown now and I’m well aware I was the luckiest mom ever. They’re amazing adults. ❤
When Country Wasn't Cool . . . If you love Reba, and if you love Barbara Mandrel (When Country Wasn't Cool) you'll love this link: th-cam.com/video/tavvNiHiD44/w-d-xo.html
Great country music is always great storytelling. Reba’s got some dark, powerful stories. “Fancy” and “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia” being two great examples that have stayed in the rotation on country radio for years. She’s definitely a legend. And she’s earned it.
As one of 8 children and coming from I suppose you could call, a poorer family, I know my mum would have done anything to protect us kids so I find this very difficult to comprehend. This is a heartbreaking story sung/ told brilliantly by Reba McEntire. I watched your face throughout this, India, and as it was my first time hearing this song too, compared our reactions as the song went on. Loved the hopeful ending, where the sign said "Home for Runaway Girls".
From the fashion of her clothes, it looks like this was maybe the 1950s. There were not many options available back then. Fancy forgave her Mama in the end.
@@westzed23 Also sounds like the mom was sick snd couldn't really do much. It's a hard decision to make but I don't think she's a horrible mom for what she did.
Yes! Excellent song! I have been in that situation and this song really gets to me. Life is not fair; when you finally meet your soulmate and he is taken! You never get over it. You try to move on with your life, with someone else but it doesn’t work because your heart cannot love anyone else. It sucks! ❤️
I love this song. I’ve sung it live onstage with my old standards band and it’s a fun one. It is almost a war cry to poor women who did what had to be done to survive. Everyone cries defiant tears. Growing up dirt poor, this song really makes me emotional. Reba is phenomenal.
GREAT reaction. Ms. Reba McIntire had many hit songs. In case you're not aware, in 1991, after a performance in San Diego, Ca, one of the two airplanes carrying Reba's band crashed, killing eight band members. Reba, her husband and hair stylist had been scheduled to leave the next day. Dolly Parton offered to lend Reba her band, since Dolly wasn't on tour at the time.
this song makes my heart ach everytime i hear it, that moms pain she has to endure as she sends her oldest daughter away to survive in a harsh reality and the thought that her baby will die (even though we know in the song welfare takes the baby) sad song but also uplifting because she does hold onto her dreams and does make it.
I used to sing this for my mom when I was a teenager (Reba is one of my music idols). When it would get to the part where she says "And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across the toe of my high heel shoe", my dad and brother would inevitably chime in as if they were the backup singers and sing "yes it crawled!"...they knew I would laugh and mess up the song 😂 The one Reba song I can't get through without tearing up is The Greatest Man I Never Knew. I can't personally relate but it's such a heartbreaking song. I would love to hear you react to it!
Her and Linda Davis were at the one I went to, dear lord they are a devastating combo. I didnt realize how beautiful Linda Davis was before that concert. They had their little lovers spat on an elevated platform right over my head, I could have reached up and grabbed Reba's feet, but that would have been wrong lol.
I’m a grown man, been around over 40 years. I remember when this song came out. Always liked the groove but didn’t understand it as a kid. Now I am grown, have a wife and kids. I’ve seen some sad things, some really sad things. I don’t cry a lot. But when I listen to this song, my eyes swell with tears and and I feel rage and anger when I see that black car coming down that road. It’s one of the most powerful music videos ever made because you know that has really happened to so many innocent young women because of the poverty we’ve had to face. Reba is a force of nature. Her story telling is raw and unadulterated. She’s the real deal.
I go as far back as what they called "The Combat Zone" in Boston in the late 1970's. ( kind of an area like Amsterdam has) where most anything goes as long as it was kept minimally decent. Started hanging out with "hookers" then and still respect them, and their work to this day.
Reba is a legend. Such a talented performer and actress. I love it when she and her idol Dolly get together and sing. That's ear candy and smoooooooth!
You should see her do this in concert. When I saw her she came out in a taxi, with a black coat and hat. Whipped off the hat, took down her hair and opened the coat under it was a sexy lace dress. The length was tucked in the hem of the coat so it flowed out. Awsome.
Love how Reba tells the stories in her songs ..... right from her heart...so much feeling in her singing. 💕 India, love your hair style, looking good. 🇨🇦 Nancy
Hey India! Great video! Yes, I agree... Reba McIntyre is so awesome! A talented actress, singer, and storyteller. So glad you appreciate this profound song!!
my 14 year old daughter Shelby watches your reactions with me and she loves butterflies. ever since we watched this reactions she has been looking for a necklace like the ones you are wearing in this video. it's absolutely beautiful. he dad always bought her butterfly stuff when he ran across them. we lost him in January so I am trying to keep that tradition going. beautiful necklace and amazing reactions. Lots of love.
Thanks for your reaction! Since you already knew her as an actress on the show 'Reba' (which I still watch in reruns on a regular basis, great sitcom!) it only makes sense for her to flesh out the Bobbie Gentry song with a movie-like video. It explains much for those who might not have understood the lyrics from the video of Gentry singing it on stage wearing a fancy red jumpsuit. A red jumpsuit which, BTW, Reba also winds up wearing when she performs this live. She starts out in a fur coat, then a red dress, then releases some tabs on the dress, takes it off and shakes her legs and she's wearing a red sparkly jumpsuit. Homage to Bobbie Gentry's version, no doubt. Reba is a class act with a fantastic voice. :)
That’s the truth. We are humans. We are all in this world together. Be kind, be thoughtful, you never know what someone is going through! In all neighborhoods, cities, countries. We have to survive ✌️❤️🌈🦋
Yes, definitely! "Independence Day" is a mighty powerful song! I grew up in domestic violence and it gets to me every time I hear it. So does her song "Broken Wing".
I love Reba, she is amazing. "The night the lights went out in Georgia" is a great song. The video is a lot like this one in that it's like a mini movie. The content is very different though.
great reaction. I had heard this song, but never listened to the lyrics or saw the video. It felt good at the end. Reba McIntire is one of the few country western singers I like. She's a cool lady. :)
Reba always seemed to keep her music real and relevant. She has had so many great hits over the years. One I haven't noticed mentioned is 'Is there life out there?' And 'I'm a survivor'. You really can't go wrong with Reba. Also she is Mother in law to Kelly Clarkson. Thank you.
I don’t think any music can tell a story quite like old school country music. They transport you to a new world and submerse you quickly. Reba, Dolly, Shania, Garth, Toby. All amazing musicians /story tellers
Reba has a live version of this from the 2019 CMAs and it's amazing! You should definitely watch it! The outfit changes in the middle of the song are awesome, not to mention her stage presence.
Love your channel!!!! You take all types of music and actually listen to the lyrics and cut each lyric down to where people understand its meaning. Not many people can do that with different genres. Well done my lady!
Reba is my Favorite! Fancy is my favorite! YOU are my favorite. Everything by Reba is great. Check out " For My Broken Heart" In 1991 Reba's plane crashed, she was not on the plane because she was sick, and was taking another flight, her entire band was on the plane, they all died. this song, the Album is for her Band.
LOOOOOVE Reba!!! Reba's music always tells a story, and boy does she deliver. In my mind she has knocked down doors, and shattered glass ceilings to help the women of country music. She has a song called She thinks his name was John. It tells a story about aids during a time when people were scared to talk about it, so she decided lets sing about it.
In the 90's Reba made a lot of controversial song. She really really made you think about thing that most people looked down on. This song, The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia and She Thinks His Name Was John are just a few. She broke down so many barriers and to this day is the best country music vocalist of all time in my opinion
I’ve heard this song many times through the years, mostly Reba’s version. Listened to the original yesterday, loved it! Not sure if I had heard it previously. Stumbled upon your reactions, watched both of them, loved them! Just a quick note, i don’t think you caught the lyric “your pa’s runned off, and I’m real sick, and the baby’s gonna starve to death“. Thank you so much for both your reactions. It was an interesting way to immerse myself in the story. Reba’s video had me crying throughout. 😭
... ok, you know you're an emotional wreck when the tears start @1:25 and full bawling by @4:33 I have always loved this song... and I'm not even fancy. I did see Reba preform in person, and it felt like when she looked out at the crowd, she was looking right at me. Good Stuff---
Aloha India, I just love YOU and your reactions! So pure and real. This is one of my favorite songs and even though haven’t watched the video yet I know you’re gonna be stunned by the story telling on this one. Keep doin what you do girl! Enjoy! Mahalo, Hawaiian Jess
I absolutely love Reba, and most all her music, and especially the older stuff. She always does a great job at telling stories. I could go on for days telling you how great her music is, and she has so many great ones you should check out, but the one I would like for you to react to the most is The Christmas Guest done by her. So powerful, and lovely, but have tissues on hand, cuz it's a crying song, but in a good way. The older ones of hers are way to plentiful for me to just pick a couple of them, so check out all of them please.
Alex Bennett Calling other people greedy for protecting THIER art and property shows how lazy and ignorant you are . It is THIER music and no one else should profit from it . If you want a piece of the pie put in the work !
Hi there. I’ve been watching reaction videos during this pandemic and I stumbled onto your videos. I like your reactions. It’s easy to see it in your eyes that you are experiencing the emotions through the music. Thanks for sharing with us.
Not a fan of Reba's, but use to go to her shows because Linda Davis was on the road with her. I only cared to hear to songs, Does He Love You and Fancy. Both give you goose bumps hearing them live.
Reba has so many great songs, so many that it’s hard for me to even make a list. I think her best stuff comes from the 80s & 90s though. Please more Reba. Love your reactions btw. You always appreciate good music.
Reba's videos are mostly all mini movies - and they're all spectacular. I *highly* recommend "Does He Love You", The Heart Won't Lie", and "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia".
India, Just viewed the Bobby Gentry video of Fancy. This Reba video versus the Bobby one as far as your delivery, reaction/remarks and editing has gone up in quality in such a short time. Keep up the great work!
Everyone loves Chad Mac with Afroman Party in the woods Everyone loves the unity and message. I'm camping now and would love to see your reaction to this video. It's a great uplifting summer song. PS... I just returned to my beloved hometown after 35 years and this song really hit HOME
Did you know when Reba first started out as a singer traveling in a school bus, she went to stores and bought clothing for homeless people where ever she was performing
I recommend doing a reaction to Reba McEntire's very first number 1 hit that was released in 1983, "I Can't Even Get The Blues No More". I also recommend doing a reaction to my all time favorite Reba McEntire song, "You Lift Me Up To Heaven". Which was released in 1980.
I saw Reba in 94. Man she puts on a show. She has always been one of my favorite artists, and her library of music is near endless! Thanks for the reaction. I always felt the video really gave life to Fancy, and it’s nice to see her finally forgive her mother at the end.
I went to see Reba a few years back...I waited the whole concert for "Fancy". She did so many songs then she said goodbye and was gone....we kept clapping....kept yelling...all the sudden the stage was black and a spot light came on...there was Reba standing on the stage in her red glittery red slit up the side dancing dress....she started singing "Fancy"..it gave me chills!!
Coreen I saw Reba several years ago and she did something similar. She came on stage wearing the fur coat and started to sing Fancy. Part way through the song she pulled the coat off and she was wearing that red dress! Oh man it was amazing! Love her!
@@judithshorey2137 Thats great...I love her too!!
I saw Reba when I was a kid in 99 and again as a teen in 05 and both times she did the same thing. ICONIC.
That sounds amazing!
I got to see her in a huge stadium do that song, she was driven back into the arena in an old style taxi and she walked out in that dress with the fur stoal. Goosebumps and tears!
Happens every day somewhere..I can still remember the day, 67 years ago, when I and my mother were on our 4th or 5th day without food..Everyone slammed doors or just told us to leave. A woman gave us 2 slices of bread. My father died in a logging accident and we were trying to walk from the edge of, what is today, the Danial Boone National Forrest to Lexington Ky to find relatives. We laid down in an apple orchard by Nicholasville, ky I think it was. I was 6. My mother never woke up the next morning. I just sat next to her and waited. It was a long time before a car stopped and found us... I was brought to a horrible institution in Frankfort, Ky, but I have no idea what happened to my mother.I can sooooo relate to this song.. A long 12 years after that...
What a terrible thing to go through and how incredibly sad that you lost your mother the way you did. And your father was evidently killed in an accident on the job and his employers just turned you and your mother out to starve to death? That employer has a lot to answer for in the hereafter.

See, I have never been sure that there is a hell but then I see someone who clearly deserves to be there. Your story breaks my heart.

The untold, unknown story of millions of girls who came from nothing, and most died with nothing. This is what people sometimes feel they have to do.
-The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia
-Does He Love You
That was the time Susan Sugarbaker threw her baton (which was on fire in the the Ms Georgia pageant) so high it hit a transformer, she caught it....That was the night that the lights went out in Georgia.
I love those two also she thinks his name was John is good as well
@@calme-dx2dp Yes Ma'am (snap snap)
Does he love you for sure!
Why Haven't I Heard From You
Reba got a TV show because of her music. If she made it in the CnW scene, She's A HARD Lady, like Dolly. RIP Tammy, and Kitty and Connie and Patsy.
Connie? if you mean Connie Smith, she is not dead.
She actually got into movies because of her music first one I ever saw was tremors with Kevin Bacon. Then a movie with Kenny Rogers and I think she did a movie based on her is there life out there song. A whole 10 yrs before the Reba t.v show. But you are right she's one of the Queen's of country.
And lorretta💖
You can now add Lainey to that list.
The reason I like Reba so much is she can take a song which was previously recorded by someone else and make it her own.
Anything 90's Reba was amazing. "The night the lights went out in Georgia" "Does he love you"
Some of her early 00s stuff was good, too. I don't think "Somebody" and "He Gets That From Me" get enough play time.
Back in the day woman didn't have any opportunities, respect for Mom's only option, painful but true!
Reba is a queen. Some of my favorites are "For My Broken Heart", "If I Had Only Known," "The Heart Won't Lie", "And Still", "It's Your Call" and "Why Haven't I Heard From You." Honestly, she has SO many amazing songs that it's hard to choose!
Greatest Man I Never Knew was powerful as hell too.
This song always brings me to tears. A lot of us know all to well what it feels like to grow up without. I appreciate the small things in life so much more. I promised myself that my child would NEVER know the pains of hunger........ever.

The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia is another good one by Reba. She has a lot of good ones though
😉I had the original Vickie Lawrence version as a kid. It was pitched 2 Cher but Sonny thought it would offend her Southern fans~ proved untrue~
Yes Reba's was great!
Yes pleas do this song its one of her best
Reba is a storyteller!!!!
Great country music is always great storytelling. Reba’s got some dark, powerful stories. “Fancy” and “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia” being two great examples that have stayed in the rotation on country radio for years. She’s definitely a legend. And she’s earned it.

Yes! Excellent song! I have been in that situation and this song really gets to me. Life is not fair; when you finally meet your soulmate and he is taken! You never get over it. You try to move on with your life, with someone else but it doesn’t work because your heart cannot love anyone else. It sucks! ❤️

Reba has great tunes. You should definitely explore more of her music.
A testament to parents that have had to make heartbreaking decisions to save their babies.
Ive said it before. When you cry, i cry. You convey your emotions so genuinely, it's impossible not to relate.
God Bless you❤❤❤
GREAT reaction.
Ms. Reba McIntire had many hit songs.
In case you're not aware, in 1991, after a performance in San Diego, Ca, one of the two airplanes carrying Reba's band crashed, killing eight band members. Reba, her husband and hair stylist had been scheduled to leave the next day. Dolly Parton offered to lend Reba her band, since Dolly wasn't on tour at the time.
Her song "The Greatest Man I Never Knew" wrecks my day every time I hear it. Too close to home I guess
this song makes my heart ach everytime i hear it, that moms pain she has to endure as she sends her oldest daughter away to survive in a harsh reality and the thought that her baby will die (even though we know in the song welfare takes the baby) sad song but also uplifting because she does hold onto her dreams and does make it.
Reba- The greatest man I never knew. Tear factory.
I refuse to listen to both this one and Patty Lovless's How Can I Help You Say Goodbye, my heart can't handle it
@@Angiepremo Yes, and Kathy Mattea Where have you been too,
I used to sing this for my mom when I was a teenager (Reba is one of my music idols).

They had their little lovers spat on an elevated platform right over my head, I could have reached up and grabbed Reba's feet, but that would have been wrong lol.
Reba is one of those rare singers that every song she sings you love
And there's no question who's voice it is when you hear her.
I’m a grown man, been around over 40 years. I remember when this song came out. Always liked the groove but didn’t understand it as a kid. Now I am grown, have a wife and kids.

Ok you gotta see the live performance of this song by Reba in the red dress ♥️
With the blue lighting behind her making her look surrounded by blue lightning
Hookers are some of the nicest folks I know. I leave judgement to those that like to do that kind of thing.
I go as far back as what they called "The Combat Zone" in Boston in the late 1970's. ( kind of an area like Amsterdam has) where most anything goes as long as it was kept minimally decent. Started hanging out with "hookers" then and still respect them, and their work to this day.
I have nothing but respect for them.
I don’t judge these women but I definitely judge the men who make this job a thing.
Joygernaut M Agreed.
Reba has dominated country music for 40 years. You have got to check out "You Lie" and "The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia" Two of Reba's best.
Reba is a legend. Such a talented performer and actress. I love it when she and her idol Dolly get together and sing. That's ear candy and smoooooooth!

i honestly didn’t know this wasn’t her song originally, i love this song and i love Reba. i will check out the original though now.
Her performance of this live is unbelievable. I've been fortunate to see her about 6 times.
That’s the truth. We are humans. We are all in this world together. Be kind, be thoughtful, you never know what someone is going through! In all neighborhoods, cities, countries. We have to survive ✌️❤️🌈🦋
God bless!! 🙏
No we not. Some are DEMONS called Narcissist look it up
The B!TCH That HIKES truth! I know I was married to one ruthless narc. Divorced now and #iamfree
Fie a similar type of song, you might want to listen to "Independence Day" by Martina McBride.
That song brings me to tears every time.
Yes, definitely! "Independence Day" is a mighty powerful song! I grew up in domestic violence and it gets to me every time I hear it. So does her song "Broken Wing".
Classic Reba !!! She's amazing. I've seen her twice in concert and her voice is even better live !!! Awesome reaction. Thanks so much ❤️
Check out Reba the night the lights went out in Georgia
Reba is a storyteller...
I respect Rebas take on “Night...”. But I prefer Vicki Lawrence’s original.
@@jtpencils agreed!
Love, love, love this song! Every time I hear it, I want to cry!
I love Reba, she is amazing. "The night the lights went out in Georgia" is a great song. The video is a lot like this one in that it's like a mini movie. The content is very different though.
This song has always spoke to me. I cry almost everytime but it always speaks to my heart and soul. Cant explain it.
My momma was put out when she was pregnant with me 45 years ago. She made as best she could for me and I made better and her life's good now.
Your perspective on every song is appreciated. You are the best.
great reaction. I had heard this song, but never listened to the lyrics or saw the video. It felt good at the end. Reba McIntire is one of the few country western singers I like. She's a cool lady. :)
My older sisters used to be obsessed with country music in the 80s and 90s. I think I know all the words to the old stuff lol. Great song.
Reba always seemed to keep her music real and relevant. She has had so many great hits over the years. One I haven't noticed mentioned is 'Is there life out there?' And 'I'm a survivor'. You really can't go wrong with Reba. Also she is Mother in law to Kelly Clarkson. Thank you.
I don’t think any music can tell a story quite like old school country music. They transport you to a new world and submerse you quickly. Reba, Dolly, Shania, Garth, Toby. All amazing musicians /story tellers
My all time favorite song and i'm a huge fan of hers. me and my cousin would sit and watch Reba show. You look beautiful sweetheart.
Reba has a live version of this from the 2019 CMAs and it's amazing! You should definitely watch it! The outfit changes in the middle of the song are awesome, not to mention her stage presence.
"You Lie" is a good song of hers.
Love your channel!!!! You take all types of music and actually listen to the lyrics and cut each lyric down to where people understand its meaning. Not many people can do that with different genres. Well done my lady!
Reba is my Favorite! Fancy is my favorite! YOU are my favorite. Everything by Reba is great. Check out " For My Broken Heart" In 1991 Reba's plane crashed, she was not on the plane because she was sick, and was taking another flight, her entire band was on the plane, they all died. this song, the Album is for her Band.
Someone FINALLY did Reba! Nice. She's 🔥
LOOOOOVE Reba!!! Reba's music always tells a story, and boy does she deliver. In my mind she has knocked down doors, and shattered glass ceilings to help the women of country music. She has a song called She thinks his name was John. It tells a story about aids during a time when people were scared to talk about it, so she decided lets sing about it.
Reba's voice gives me chills. I saw her in concert and she is awesome.
Every time 😭😭😭
As a mom with a beautiful daughter... I can't imagine. ❤️ 🙏
In the 90's Reba made a lot of controversial song. She really really made you think about thing that most people looked down on. This song, The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia and She Thinks His Name Was John are just a few. She broke down so many barriers and to this day is the best country music vocalist of all time in my opinion
If this song doesn’t give you chills you have no soul. Nobody could draw you into a song like Reba
I’ve heard this song many times through the years, mostly Reba’s version. Listened to the original yesterday, loved it! Not sure if I had heard it previously. Stumbled upon your reactions, watched both of them, loved them! Just a quick note, i don’t think you caught the lyric “your pa’s runned off, and I’m real sick, and the baby’s gonna starve to death“. Thank you so much for both your reactions. It was an interesting way to immerse myself in the story. Reba’s video had me crying throughout. 😭
... ok, you know you're an emotional wreck when the tears start @1:25 and full bawling by @4:33 I have always loved this song... and I'm not even fancy. I did see Reba preform in person, and it felt like when she looked out at the crowd, she was looking right at me. Good Stuff---
Aloha India,
I just love YOU and your reactions! So pure and real. This is one of my favorite songs and even though haven’t watched the video yet I know you’re gonna be stunned by the story telling on this one. Keep doin what you do girl! Enjoy!
Mahalo,
Hawaiian Jess
I absolutely love Reba, and most all her music, and especially the older stuff. She always does a great job at telling stories. I could go on for days telling you how great her music is, and she has so many great ones you should check out, but the one I would like for you to react to the most is The Christmas Guest done by her. So powerful, and lovely, but have tissues on hand, cuz it's a crying song, but in a good way. The older ones of hers are way to plentiful for me to just pick a couple of them, so check out all of them please.
One of my wife’s favorite Reba songs. I would live to see your reaction to “Life in the Fast Lane” by the Eagles.
The Eagles always get blocked on you tube . Henley is very protective of their music .
@@tbone5112 Protective, nice way of saying greedy😁
Alex Bennett
Calling other people greedy for protecting THIER art and property shows how lazy and ignorant you are . It is THIER music and no one else should profit from it . If you want a piece of the pie put in the work !
My mom always said that treat everyone with respect and dignity. You have not walked in there shoes. God bless.
Hi there. I’ve been watching reaction videos during this pandemic and I stumbled onto your videos. I like your reactions. It’s easy to see it in your eyes that you are experiencing the emotions through the music. Thanks for sharing with us.
Man I'm on a India rabbit hole tonight lol. Classic. This was one of my mom's favorite songs ever.
Bobby Gentry wrote this and also "Ode to Billy Joe". Classic country.
Watch Reba and Linda Davis "Does He Love You?".
D Taylor Totally agree
Think Reba also remade that one with Kelly Clarkson - great song!
@@StillJustDreaming The music video with Linda Davis is what I want her to watch.. it's got a surprise ending.
LOVE this song. So powerful, so empowering. This always makes me bawl ugly tears.
Reba is for sure a legend and has an amazing voice
Not a fan of Reba's, but use to go to her shows because Linda Davis was on the road with her. I only cared to hear to songs, Does He Love You and Fancy. Both give you goose bumps hearing them live.
This is one of my favorites. Another Reba did that doesn't get much mention anymore is "Somebody Should Leave".
This brought me to tears....
What people go through...
How her Mom felt...
Reba can do ANYTHING she sets her mind to.
Reba has so many great songs, so many that it’s hard for me to even make a list. I think her best stuff comes from the 80s & 90s though. Please more Reba. Love your reactions btw. You always appreciate good music.
🤘❤🤘😁✌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Such an Iconic classic hit for Reba!!!!!!
The greatest man I never knew is so good. 😭😭😭
The heart will never forget what the heart went through....you are a beautiful empath...love you!!
Reba's videos are mostly all mini movies - and they're all spectacular. I *highly* recommend "Does He Love You", The Heart Won't Lie", and "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia".
India, Just viewed the Bobby Gentry video of Fancy. This Reba video versus the Bobby one as far as your delivery, reaction/remarks and editing has gone up in quality in such a short time. Keep up the great work!
Everyone loves Chad Mac with Afroman
Party in the woods
Everyone loves the unity and message.
I'm camping now and would love to see your reaction to this video.
It's a great uplifting summer song.
PS... I just returned to my beloved hometown after 35 years and this song really hit HOME
I cried as a kid because I couldn’t go to a Reba concert, still haven’t but I know the show would be incredible
Did you know when Reba first started out as a singer traveling in a school bus, she went to stores and bought clothing for homeless people where ever she was performing
I had mother and daughter neighbors that were the poor man's version of the Fancy story, minus the siblings 😱
One word to describe Reba and her musis: GOAT - greatest of all times!
I remember when this song came out. In my opinion, this is Reba’s best song and video!
I recommend doing a reaction to Reba McEntire's very first number 1 hit that was released in 1983, "I Can't Even Get The Blues No More".
I also recommend doing a reaction to my all time favorite Reba McEntire song, "You Lift Me Up To Heaven". Which was released in 1980.
Yes, love the early 80s hits. Whoever's in New England & Somebody Should leave. Her MCA Albums were great.
I have never heard this song before or new it even existed but it gave me chills!
Reba's "is there life out there" - about a woman who spent her life taking care of everyone else and now wants to find a path for herself.
I saw Reba in 94. Man she puts on a show. She has always been one of my favorite artists, and her library of music is near endless! Thanks for the reaction. I always felt the video really gave life to Fancy, and it’s nice to see her finally forgive her mother at the end.
You should also listen to the Kelly clarkson version that honors Reba at an event.
Great reaction on this. I was lucky enough to see Reba in the early 2000s. Amazing show. ✌❤
''Be True To Yourself'' words I learned young from Fancy. they saved me, every time.
I love country for the stories they tell. This is a great story and an even better story teller.
