There are so many great Oak Ridge Boys songs. Some I'd like you to do are: "You're the One (In a Million)" "Any Old Time You Choose" "She's Not Just Another Pretty Face" "You Made It Beautiful" "Only One I Love" "Class Reunion" "I Wish You Could Have Turned My Head (and Left My Heart Alone)" "Gonna Take a Lot of River" "No Matter How High" "When Karen Comes Around" "If I Were You" "Change My Mind". I could name many more.
Thank you for taking us down memory lane. This song is on their greatest hits album, released on 01/01/1980 I was a teenager. I have all their org. albums. . 2 of my favs are I'll Be True To You and Sail away.
Loved this song. I’m from South Louisiana, and I remembered that song from when I was a girl. Loved Motown (Black girl here) but loved old country too (watched HeeHaw with granddad), up through the 80s.
This was one of their biggest early hits that put them on the country map. I suggest you check out the well-written and affecting 'I Guess It Never Hurts to Hurt Sometimes.'
So happy you reacted to this song! It's been my favorite Oak Ridge Boys song since I was 11 years old. (It was released in 1979.) As a Louisianan, I am a sucker for a song with Louisiana in the title, but it is awesome to see a Brit enjoy this song as much as I do!
Love the Oak Ridge Boys! Thanks for another great reaction & for taking us way back! ❤ please react to I’m Settin’ Fancy Free and Trying to Love Two Women by the Oak Ridge Boys.
Other good ones would be Thank God For Kids Y'All Come Back Saloon A weird little fact is that the same time that the Oak Ridge Boys were forming in Oak Ridge Tennessee, the area around the little town was being flooded by 10,000 's of people reporting to the newly formed top secret military base. Most of them not even realizing that they working to perfect the atom bomb, otherwise known as Site #1 for the Manhattan Project.
La Dee! I bought the vinyl album in 1980, played it so many times!!! The drum beats get me going. So glad this one came up on your list! My favorite of all, tied with Ya'll Come Back Saloon from this album. Remember many of the songs non-stop on the radio, also Fancy Free...
I think you've covered all of the real fun songs from them. But, there are still great songs left. My next suggestion would be either Trying To Love Two Women or Thank God For Kids. The latter is a Christmas type song.
With deep Louisiana roots and now living here permanently (not leaving again), so much of this is relatable. When it first came out, we were already big Oak Ridge Boys fans. It's hard to pick an absolute favorite song but his right up there.
Man, I used to play this song a lot in my truck while driving around in my early 20's, during the early 2010's. It's such a fun song to sing.. I don't know how to explain it, but the way the words flow off the tongue feels fun.
Oh, I LOVE when you listen to a suggestion I've made...and I know there were a ton of other followers that suggested this one too! 😁👏. The Oaks are always awesome!! This one is my favorite though!
I love that you reacted to this. Dad as born in Louisiana and it's ;makes me smile too for a lot of reasons. Consider The Oakridge Boys the "early version of Home Free" with instruments. LOL That's why the did the collaboration with Home Free for the remake of Elvira. Love this!!!
Hey my friend in the other side of the pond with the beautiful smile…..I think what you are hearing is a little bit of some modern day blue grass influence. Love it!
I have very eclectic taste in music....in many genres...it is okay to like songs along the whole spectrum that is country music. You don't have to like every song along it....and people are going to have their favorites, but people who just love music in general should enjoy watching each other discover new stuff...I know that's the only reason I watch the awards shows...to watch musicians enjoy listening to each other perform.....
Oh, I was gona tell ya, but ended up in the hospital, Blake Shelton brought back the mullet in his new song!! He didn't grow it. They used a green screen to make it appear for the video. It's even the picture on his Instagram or Twitter homepage. I think Instagram though. The song is called... No Body. NOT Nobody But You! This one means like the Body. The video has the mullet & is made to look like an old VHS tape & it has line dancing in it!! I haven't done that in years! It just faded out. I'm gona get on TH-cam & learn it when I feel better!! Don't know if someone told you already, but when I saw it, you were the first person I thought of!! 🤠👢🎶
The Oakridge Boys!!!! Man. Country Royalty!!!! And the fact that theyre a male group singing a song from a females point of view........waaay ahead of the times!!!!!!
I LOVE this song! Thank you for this! My favorite song of theirs. I still smile every time I hear it! Next up "The Y'all Come Back Saloon" please and thank you! th-cam.com/video/sH_4dSOXj90/w-d-xo.html

I think I was born just a tad later than you, but it’s also been my favorite ORB song since I was a boy. We liked it over in west Texas, too.
One of my favorite Oak Ridge Boys songs is " Y'all Come Back Saloon"
My favorite Oak Ridge Boys song is "I Guess It Never Hurts". It's a bittersweet song for remembering people you've lost.
Love the Oak Ridge Boys! Thanks for another great reaction & for taking us way back! ❤ please react to I’m Settin’ Fancy Free and Trying to Love Two Women by the Oak Ridge Boys.
Great song about Louisiana! Can't go wrong with The Oak Ridge Boys. As always thanks for the reaction!
Great song! Thanks for reacting to it! I know it word for word!
I have to say you are the best reactor out there. Your reactions just bring a smile to my face. I look forward to it everyday.❤️
Other good ones would be
Thank God For Kids
Y'All Come Back Saloon

My favorite song growing up. I was born in South Louisiana then Dad ended up in the military. Loved it from the 1st time I heard it.
One of their Great Songs, I love it!
Now you're into the Great Oldies. Grew up with them. No cell phones with cameras around then.
Just put the album on replay.
Hands down their best song ever !!!
La Dee! I bought the vinyl album in 1980, played it so many times!!! The drum beats get me going. So glad this one came up on your list! My favorite of all, tied with Ya'll Come Back Saloon from this album. Remember many of the songs non-stop on the radio, also Fancy Free...
This is other tape my dad would have in his truck 😊 I've always loved quartet harmonies 💖🦋
I think you've covered all of the real fun songs from them. But, there are still great songs left. My next suggestion would be either Trying To Love Two Women or Thank God For Kids. The latter is a Christmas type song.
My 2 favorite songs of theirs are Fancy Free and Sail Away, I hope you check them out.
Dream on is my favorite Oakridge Boys song.
With deep Louisiana roots and now living here permanently (not leaving again), so much of this is relatable. When it first came out, we were already big Oak Ridge Boys fans. It's hard to pick an absolute favorite song but his right up there.
Love the storytelling in this song! You don’t get that in new country. Nice reaction!!
PLEASE do George Strait singing Amarillo By Morning
Another one I completely forgot about! Oh the memories. I love the Oaks!
Another blast from the past. Glad you enjoyed this.
Yes 1980. I had this on vinyl. Great story song.
I love these guys!
Growing up mom played it lots.. I really missed this song in particular.. This is Americana here!! God be with you. Peace
Man, I used to play this song a lot in my truck while driving around in my early 20's, during the early 2010's.
It's such a fun song to sing.. I don't know how to explain it, but the way the words flow off the tongue feels fun.
Try Thank God for Kids
Late 70's , early 80's , another one of their hits around that time is setting fancy free
I have had the pleasure and good fortune of attending several of their concerts, and all I can say is "PHENOMENAL!"
Keep the Great Country Western music Going! Highway 🛣️ Running.🇺🇸🏁🌄
Love this song! 😍
So glad you reviewed this song, because I remember listening to it a lot as a younger girl.
It's from 1979. 😉
Released in 1979
Oh, I LOVE when you listen to a suggestion I've made...and I know there were a ton of other followers that suggested this one too! 😁👏. The Oaks are always awesome!! This one is my favorite though!
Finally, I've been waiting for a reaction of this song!! It's my favorite
These guys are incredible in concert, saw them twice 😃

Hey my friend in the other side of the pond with the beautiful smile…..I think what you are hearing is a little bit of some modern day blue grass influence. Love it!
Another good song by this group is Y’ALL COME BACK SALOON.
Your next group should be Shenandoah and THE CHURCH ON THE CUMBERLAND ROAD.
This is driving down country roads with my parents in our 74 ford ranger pickup with fields and fences rolling by.
My Mama said thank you. 💃 👈 This is her right now 😁
One of my favorites
I was touched by your reaction to I Believe by Brooks and Dunn
Always loved this one!
Cajun music with a fiddle makes you want to get up and dance!
Another great artist and song you'd enjoy is Lee Greenwood "Dixie Road". Nice story song that will have you tapping your toes. 💗😁

They have a lot of great songs. "Beautiful You" was a good one that not everyone knows.
You're The One in a Million is another great song.
Great Choice!!
A song called , All the gold in California is a bank in ( I think ) Marinadell Ray
Oh, I was gona tell ya, but ended up in the hospital, Blake Shelton brought back the mullet in his new song!! He didn't grow it. They used a green screen to make it appear for the video.

Oak Ridge Boys “The Baptism of Jesse Taylor”[Live].
A Rodney Crowell song. I love his original interpretation. Both versions are bangers.
You weren’t around in the 70’s… 🤦🏻♀️ I’m old 😝
The Oakridge Boys!!!! Man. Country Royalty!!!! And the fact that theyre a male group singing a song from a females point of view........waaay ahead of the times!!!!!!
Thank y0u
Beautiful You From the oaks
Trying to Love Two Women by the Oak Ridge Boys
☮️💜
Written by Rodney Crowell. Emmylou Harris recorded a great version of it.
Gonna take a lot of river is a fun song especially the video. Please check it out, you'll love it.
I LOVE this song! Thank you for this! My favorite song of theirs. I still smile every time I hear it! Next up "The Y'all Come Back Saloon" please and thank you! th-cam.com/video/sH_4dSOXj90/w-d-xo.html
Hey smiling melt…you are hearing a little blue grass too….
Try some of the Stuff by the Gatlin Brothers
Did you do Elvira yet? So much fun in high school!
Jave you done Elvira yet? Thats my fave from them.
Hi, would you please react to....Johnny Cash...'I've Been Everywhere' I feel you would love it! Thanks, love your channel! 😊
I think the Emmylou Harris version is better. It has more of a raw country feel to it rather than the polished sound of the Oak Ridge Boys.
Make my life with you
I don't have any sound
Emmylou does it better
Brother. It's looziana! Lol
