“Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man” & “After The Fire Has Gone” are two of the many first with Loretta Lynn. Amber, you should show everyone a picture of Jay with hair!!
1000% I still say, they should also check out Twitty & Lynn and Ms. Lynn's sweet young granddaughter Emmy Rose Russell who is on a American Idol this season.
This is my favorite Conway Twitty song. Thank you for selecting it. Conway has a great voice. I didn't start getting into country music until I started waitressing at a truck stop and a lot of country music was played on the juke box. Conway Twitty, Kenny Rogers, The Carlie Daniels Band, Patsey Cline, Johnny Cash, Loretta lynn.and Dolly were the favorite artists that were played over and over.. I was in my 30's when I began to really appreciate Country music.
Dude I met Conway in the early 70s he was so kind & took us on his bus…great sweet guy…love that u guys r so very open to all music ❤️ y’all much! 👏👍🏼🙏🏽
You haven't heard the greatness of Conway Twitty(nee Harold Lloyd Jenkins)until you've heard his very first hit during his neo-rockabilly/country pop era, 1958's "It's Only Make Believe" and NOT his numerous re-recorded versions,but his 1958 version only.....also his Elvis sounding 1960 rock-a-ballad "Lonely Blue Boy" and 1970's country classic "Hello Darlin" and 1973's "You've Never Been This Far Before" and his country duet with Loretta Lynn entitled "Your The Reason Are Kids Are Ugly".
I use to D.J. in my dad's bar. An at the end of the night for the last song I'd play his song It's Only Make Believe an everyone with leave the floor to my parents for that one dance. They both passed away in the last couple years. I like to think they r somewhere together enjoying all the things I use to tell them they should go an live life.
Conway's "Don't Cry Joni" should be next as he sings it in a duet with his real life 16 year old daughter Joni. This reached #63 on the Overall Billboard Top 100 and #4 on the Country Charts.
Wow, you guys have no idea the smile you gave this old listener. I'm a retired tribute artist and I spent thirty years singing all over the world as Conway Twitty and Roy Orbison! For me, you guys hit it out of the park tonight. Thank you!
I suggest Conway and Sam Moore singing "Rainy Night in Georgia"... If I am not mistaken, it was the last song Conway recorded... or at least one of the last...
@@josephapplebee9111 It IS a cover of Brook's song, but I am not aware of him and Conway ever working together (Could have happened though)... Conway and Sam got together and recorded the cover shortly before Conway passed away in 1993... The video, released in 1994, is dedicated to Conway...
Have to agree with @MeIn321, "Tight Fittin' Jeans" is one of Conway's best. I had a friend who always asked the karaoke hosts if they had "Tight Fittin' Jeans" on their playlist. Finally one night one had it. I had never heard the song before. As the host sang the song my buddy looked like he was transported to another world. We couldn't help asking my friend if the lyrics were just his fantasy or if he had actually experienced the story they told. He got flustered and blushed. That song meant a lot to my old country friend.
I love this song... Conway and Loretta were singing partners... They have a lot of songs together. You're the reason our kids are ugly I still believe in waltzes Louisiana woman Mississippi Man Spiders and snakes Feelings It's true love From 7 to 10 You know just what I do The letter.... Are just a few of their songs. Y'all should definitely check them out. ❤❤❤
I saw him in concert in the 80’s and man he really put on a show and his voice was so smooth enjoyed every song he sang . Here is one you should check out it is don’t cry Joni it is so beautiful
Needless to say, my mom and every other country-music-loving female loved Conway in the 70s. She played his records all the time. I actually resented Conway until I got older because I heard him so much as a kid. 😂
Joany Joany is quite a good song by him. My sister and I sang it together when we kids and recorded it in our grandpas studio. To this day it’s one of my favorite songs.
I grew up in the 70/80s and my mom loved country...so as a kid I got to hear some true Country music nothing like today's stuff. Very lucky decades for music. So blessed.
Try Conway & Loretta “As Soon As I Hang Up The Phone. They have many goodins. Loretta also has some fine duets with Ernest Tubb, but they are not as widely remembered. They never had any direct-to-consumer television ads, I guess.
Mr. Harold Jenkins changed his name to Conway Twitty. He said he picked the name after Conway Arkansas and Twitty Texas. I had the honor of meeting him in person. He was as nice in person as he seemed on stage. He had so many wonderful songs. Two of my favorites were "Play Guitar Play" and "Touch the Hand of the Man that Made You a Woman."
My best friend moved away to Conway Arkansas in 7th grade. I hated that place. Until my patents moved to Bentonville Arkansas and I joined the Navy and got stationed in New Orleans for 4 years. Conway is right on the road between my folks and NOLA. So I dtove through several times. But it only took once for me to want to move there. Never been to Twitty. But I HATED DFW. People in DFW are the worst drivers anywhere except maybe Denver.
This is a beautiful love song. A lot of people think it's about sex/scoring. Glad you guys understood the song. You definitely need to hear Conway & Loretta duets. They did cheating & love songs. They are so good together. Listen to their version of "Spiders and snakes" or "Pickin' Wild Mountain Berries." They were having so much fun singing these songs. Other songs "Lead me on" "7 til 10" "Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man" "After the fire is gone" "I still believe in waltzes" Any song you pick is 💥❤️🔥. Love Conway & Loretta! I sure do miss them!!!
Something interesting for Jay to know..The Bee-Gees (esp Barry) were big fans of Conway. In fact you should try to react to Conway’s version of The Bee-Gees song “Rest Your Love”…it is fabulous! Conways voice in this song is amazing! 😊
Oh, I've been doing. It's CO UN TRY country music everywhere. I say I've went developed h. I. L. A spell BI LLYI gotta help bell on her high question mark here and my remember brother Blake Bal IKA question mark Black Bal a.k.a.

I'm fine.I've only been doing say.I love you and Taylor wife, country music.Animal, I have developed.I aren't AHI, L.L.Are l l y I gotta heal bill right now
I don't think you've reacted to Lyle Lovett. I'd check out his songs like, that’s right (you’re not from Texas), here I am, you’ve been so good up to now, you can’t resist it, penguin, my baby don’t tolerate, funny how time slips away w/al green
I don't know if you have heard of Charlie Rich but he had some great songs back in the day. He is perhaps best remembered for a pair of 1973 hits, "Behind Closed Doors" and "The Most Beautiful Girl," (borrowed from wiki)
Ole Conway is one of the all time classics. I've always called him the him, "The Grand Ole pimp of country music" b/c you know this smooth talking man-permed baritone was pulling the ladies in his day
Absolutely. I have recommended Ricky Van Shelton before. He has so many great songs. Keep it between the lines, Backroads, Somebody Lied, Simple Man, Rocking Years with Dolly Parton and so many more.
Fun fact, i got the night shirt with this song on it at a Twitty and Lynn show who are the grandchildren of Mr. Twitty and Ms. Lynn. Tayla is in the pic with me. They go all over the country, share their songs and stories to keep the magic alive. You all should really check them out. Tayla is just as silly as Ms. Lynn and Tre is as calm as Mr. Twitty. There is something about the twitty and lynn families.
I played football with his son Jimmy in a Moore, OK league. Conway was at practices and games, but none of us knew he was a famous singer. He owned a burger joint called Twittyburger. Jimmy was a great guy and good player.
Never heard this song before, but the thing that really stood out to me was was key change, which went lower, whereas most songs go higher. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this!
Some Kenny Rogers suggestions, Kenny Rogers and Dottie West - What Are We Doing In Love, I Feel Sorry For Anyone Who Isn’t Me Tonight. Kenny Rogers, Kim Carnes and James Ingram - What About Me.
There are so many great duets you two should hear-Kenny and Dottie, Conway and Loretta, George and Tammy, Garth and Tricia, Tim and Faith, Andy and Olivia, Marie Osmond and Dan Seals. It would be fun to do a Duet Tuesday once in awhile.
You might enjoy his earlier rock hit It's Only Make Believe or another country classic You've Never Been This Far Before. I was not a big country fan growing up but for a few years I was with a woman that loved country music, so I had to listen to a lot. I saw Conway Twitty in a concert near Ottawa not very long before he died.
Conway & Loretta released 10 albums, so, there is a lot of music out there from them. 12 singles made the Top 10 on the country charts, including 5 #1's.
If you're going down a Conway rabbit hole, you definitely need to check out his incredible duets with Loretta Lynn (and of course Loretta's incredible and influential works). And, then maybe follow that up with some of the great country duos of that era (incl. George & Tammy and Porter & Dolly).
... I love "julia" ... I love all of his songs and it's easy to pick the big hits, the best known songs... but for me, the song, "julia" is one that just embodies what I love most about conway's voice and songs - love... sweet song from his later years....I'd love to see your reaction to it 😊
Personal fave of his banned from radio play for obvious reasons when it was released. His version of It’s Only Make Believe is brilliant with his gorgeous voice
My mom loved her some Conway Twitty lol I didn't give it much thought until I listened to some of his music and then I thought damn I see why she likes him he is truly gifted with words.
This channel is an education for me sometimes as never heard of him b4 so thanks I love all sorts of music 🎶, if you haven't notice in my previous posts i love Barbra Streisand so please can we have some more.😊❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I probably haven't heard that song in 40 years. The restaurant I worked at played this song on the jukebox Many times. The ladies there reacted to this song pretty much the same way Miss Amber reacted. Happy Easter!!
As my Aunt would say, “Conway can put his shoes under my bed anytime.” ❤ This was always such a sweet song! He and Loretta did Mississippi Woman Louisiana Man and I love that song! They also did Picking Wild Mountain Berries which is great too!
Haven't heard that one in a long time :) While it's sweet, he had some cheeky songs too, like "Don't Call Him A Cowboy Until You've Seen Him Ride", LOL! And that one reminds me of Mel Tillis' song, "I Got The Horse And She Got The Saddle" and his "Coca-Cola Cowboy". Some day I know you'll get to David Frizzel & Shelly West's song "You're The Reason God Made Oklahoma". Another song I think y'all would like is Hoyt Axton's "Boney Fingers" :)
Conway Twitty given name Harold Jenkins had 41 number one records. He was a unique talent who started out in Rock and Roll before coming to Country Music. He had a way of saying things in his music other men only thought. He’s been gone since 1994 and he’s definitely missed.
The look on Rob's face when Conway said he'd love when he sees her in the kitchen or her favorite cotton down with Harold up and curls and still love to lay her down and Rob was looking straight at her and just grinning ear-to-ear like yeah I know the feeling
Conway was one of my favorites. I think y'all would love "Rainy Night in Georgia" it was his last song before he passed. Honestly my favorite by him. Much love from Virginia 💙🙏💙🙏 PS as the Great Stewart Scott used to say. "Don't hate the playa hate the game". lol.
Oh Wow! Reminds me of standing by the freight elevator and an old electrician singing the refrain to me… I had just started in my Pipefitting career the fall before.. all 6’1” of my gorgeous feminine shape! It melted me instantly! I wish I knew then what I know now!!
For some reason my mind always amalgamates this song with “Take Me Down” by Alabama, so I keep waiting for the chorus of the latter to kick in. 😆 If you haven’t heard it already, check out his and Loretta Lynn’s song “Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man.”
![[UNCUT] The Loyal Pin ปิ่นภักดิ์ EP.6 (1/4)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/m05kZ2GDKXg/mqdefault.jpg)

One of my favorite duets by them is called "You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly", LOL!
@Rebel9668 yes. They had ALOT.
@@Rebel9668I love that one. No one under 60 probably knows it
Hello Darlin’ is a song that became THE pickup line of the 70’s, and it was all in the Conway delivery of the line 🤠🎼🎶
He sang this in concert and the ladies went wild
You really should check out the wonderful duets Conway sings with Loretta Lynn. Louisiana Women, Mississippi Man is one you would enjoy!
My ex mother in law loved conway. Her name was Kitty. She always said she was going to marry him someday and be Kitty Twitty!
hahahaha thats funny
He didn't start in country; neither did Kenny Rogers, but they were embraced by their talent.

I went to several Conway concerts and the women would just melt in his hands.
I was raised on this music! Makes me miss my daddy. He loved Conway! Thank you for reacting to this! Happy Easter!

You should react to his duets with Loretta Lynn like Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man and After the Fire Is Gone.
Don't forget " Your The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly ". It's so funny by the two of them.
It's Only Make Believe is another really good one by him!
THIS was so great boot-scootin' music, back in the day!! RIP, CONWAY!! YOU are MISSED, SIR!!! THANKS, YA'LL!!!
BJ Thomas suggestion - "Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song".
Took my boyfriend 40 years ago to his concert. It was a surprise birthday gift for David. Fabius loved Conway I loved this song
Country music is known for its double entendres. 😊

DON'T CRY JONI is a duet with his daughter that tells of lost love. A great counterpoint to this song yet is one of his biggest hits
Conway Twitty was the man! My mom absolutely loved him. This is the music I was raised on. I'm so glad y'all appreciate it so much. Keep em coming
I love this song... Conway and Loretta were singing partners... They have a lot of songs together.

One of my favorite Conway songs is Don't take it away
i love this song
Mr. Twitty is called, the best friend a song ever had.
One of his that i like is, "I Don't Know a Thing About Love" (The Moon Song)
Mr. Harold Jenkins changed his name to Conway Twitty. He said he picked the name after Conway Arkansas and Twitty Texas. I had the honor of meeting him in person. He was as nice in person as he seemed on stage. He had so many wonderful songs. Two of my favorites were "Play Guitar Play" and "Touch the Hand of the Man that Made You a Woman."
His name came from "Conway Arkansas" and "Twitty, TX"

Conways song Goodbye Time
for me is his very very best
That's the song he was in the middle of performing when he collapsed on stage in Branson the night before he died. Kinda spooky with that title, no?
Amber's face at 1:14 😊 Good choice, you two! My man has a voice like Conway Twitty and I love it when he sings this song to me. Happy Easter! ✝🌄
Something interesting for Jay to know..The Bee-Gees (esp Barry) were big fans of Conway. In fact you should try to react to Conway’s version of The Bee-Gees song “Rest Your Love”…it is fabulous! Conways voice in this song is amazing! 😊
Grew up in the 60s and 70s with this music. This is probably one of my Twitty faves. Thanks for sharing.
Conway's Happy Birthday Darlin' plays at Least once a year in my house every year. A classic for a classic!✌️❤️
Mac Davis "It's Hard to Be Humble" (1980)
Also Lubbock Texas in your rearview mirror. Since I live in Lubbock it's a favorite.
My favorite Mac song was Hooked on Music. Got a real rockabilly beat.

Goodbye Time one of his greatest vocals ever!!!
What a voice , pure deep honey to the ears

I can hear J singing this to Amber wen he's in the mood. Lol

The look on Rob's face when Conway said he'd love when he sees her in the kitchen or her favorite cotton down with Harold up and curls and still love to lay her down and Rob was looking straight at her and just grinning ear-to-ear like yeah I know the feeling
Theres a reason he was called the best friend a song ever had 😎
Conway was one of my favorites.
I think y'all would love "Rainy Night in Georgia" it was his last song before he passed.

PS as the Great Stewart Scott used to say. "Don't hate the playa hate the game". lol.
My cousin Becky (Uselton) Sellers was a backup singer for Twitty for a while 😊
Oh Wow! Reminds me of standing by the freight elevator and an old electrician singing the refrain to me… I had just started in my Pipefitting career the fall before.. all 6’1” of my gorgeous feminine shape! It melted me instantly! I wish I knew then what I know now!!
For some reason my mind always amalgamates this song with “Take Me Down” by Alabama, so I keep waiting for the chorus of the latter to kick in. 😆 If you haven’t heard it already, check out his and Loretta Lynn’s song “Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man.”
MY FAVORITE CONWAY SONG!!! THANK YALL SO MUCH
