73 year old from Tennessee. I love Brenda Lee and have since I was a schoolgirl. I play this every time it comes up. I saw her in Pigeon Forge, TN a few years ago. She was not well and I could tell but she gave it her all. Then after the show she did not do a meet n greet because she actually was sick. It was disappointing but very understandable! She is a real star. ❤❤

I saw Brenda at the Empire Room at the Palmer House in Chicago in 1973 .After the show I handed her assistant a sketch I did of her. He came back out and told me Brenda wanted to meet me backstage in her dressing room. We talked and in kissed her on the cheek before I left ( I’d never kiss a married woman on the lips ). 2 years later , at the opening of Old Chicago amusement park, they had a show room where she was appearing. I talked to her as she arrived . She remembered me from before and asked if I was seeing the show ? I said yes. As I sat in the front row with my brother she started to sing “ You are The Sunshine on my life “ and when the lyric “ you must have known that I was coming , “ she pointed to me in the front row. Tho born in 1952, I never appreciated her music til I bought the 1970 lp “ Memphis Portrait “, my favorite lp period ! Since then I’ve purchased every lp she ever recorded . Been a fan ever since , the greatest female artist ever , second only to Elvis overall !
Thank you for the story. Brenda was the superstar who never acted like one. Somehow she remained a normal person throughout her life. She was unaffected by being famous. I saw her in 2016 on one of her last tours and she still stayed until everyone got an autograph and picture with her if they wanted one. Probably took her a couple of hours to do so.
@@MostlyBrenda after being invited backstage , she told me to leave my address at front desk. A week later I got a personal autographed picture with my name included saying thanks !
I have loved this classic forever. I think everyone in the world should hear this one. What a voice, her articulation is nearly perfect, yet she stands there with seemingly little effort and sings hauntingly beautiful music. What talent!!
She is the best and my hat is off to the writer/writers of the lyrics and melody!! A great story set to wonderful music and sung by a sensitive artist.
Learned to phrase perfectly very early. Combine that with a unique stage presence and fantastic voice projection and the result is a thoroughly dynamic performer.
A special gift to all her fans round this world. Brenda has given of her self her whole life through and has made the world a better place. Love you Brenda always, Bill.
I wish I would have been old enough to see her in concert in her prime. I still would go but being a baby back then is crazy that I would love this womens music and many others from back then. Considering I am only 51 now people think I am crazy oh well. She is truly a classy lady in my book. And her Christmas album isn't christmas with out her. I still have the 45 of Johnny one time I guess my mom or dad bought it and I have all them. I wish I had my dads album collection he has over 5,000 albums he's collected over the years.
You are not crazy.. I'm 64 and didn't really enjoy the 'country' music from the late fifties and early sixties, but now can easily see how wonderful some of these people were, especially Brenda Lee, Jim Reeves, Marty Robbins, Roy Orbison and other greats. The last 10 years have changed my mind. And I think many more will feel this way given the dearth of talent today. God bless them all.
I have insomnia tonight. (This morning) SO, I've been listening to good old music all night! (And morning.) I saw this on another song from someone else. (I don't deserve to steal this quote ) ..."She makes it look so EFFORTLESS"!! That applies HERE! THIS is talent!!!
"Effortless" - She is a giant among singers, so it is "easy/effortless" for her to be better than other performers, but sometimes, like here, she reached an intensity that even the best rarely attained. Brenda viewed this performance about 30 yrs later and even she was surprised. She said in her book that she couldn't recall what caused it (the elevated level of emotion, I am guessing). Also see the "Proud Mary" video on the channel from the same show. Tore it up on that one too.
@@MostlyBrenda I got to hear both songs on your play list/channel! I would have loved to have been in that audience, that night! If I can feel that "energy" coming from her listening to this on a video, originally shot almost 50 years ago; imagine what it would have been in that chair in front of her! What was this? I commented last night, thinking it was the good ol' 'Johnny Cash Show'. But now, I don't think so! Also, I loved a song she did called 'Big 4 Poster Bed'? And another one she did, outdoing EVERYbody that ever sang it: 'Jambalaya'!! God Bless you Ms.Lee!!!
@@tedpittsinger9688 It is the JRC show. I do have 4 poster on the channel th-cam.com/video/GCfSCmLtmTk/w-d-xo.html Brenda had to convince Owen to do such a long song which radio usually doesn't play. I have Jambalaya in a medley see th-cam.com/video/E26o3xZO4qs/w-d-xo.html
The ending is amazing. The original is a woman's solemn lament over being conned by a one-timer, but here she flips the song on it's head and pines for the man to comeback! "Johnny, johnny, johnny...." A brilliant reinterpretation of the lyric that only the greats can pull off. The original was already nominated for a Grammy when this aired.
Thanks for all your comments! If I remember right, Brenda didn't even see this performance of hers until thirty years later. The show taped Thursday night and was broadcast on Saturday. Probably she was performing somewhere that weekend and in an era before VCRs, just never got around to seeing it.
I heard a short teenager sing in my Junior High Cafeteria on a horrible sound system during a visit to a relative in 1961. It was Brenda & she was wonderful!
Brenda made a live performance of two songs for free at San Jacinto Junior High in Pasadena, Texas for free. I was told that she was visiting a cousin in the School. I was there as a student & the information came from my girlfriend who knew the cousin. There wasn't much learning at school that day.
@@transitionministries2072 Ah, okay cool 😎. I interpreted your 1rst comment as if you were the one visiting a friend, so it didn't make sense to me. Brenda did tour in Texas in early June 1961. Just in time, I guess, as the schools were about ready for the summer recess.
Pure class, talent and grace............Miley Cyrus and Beyonce, THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. No need to prance around half naked when you have REAL talent like Miss Lee.
This been playing alot on oldies station lately KISD 98.7 ( FORMERLY THE ROCK OF DAKOTA WITH DIFFERENT DIAL NUMBER, NOW THE OLDIES STATION IN THE AREA).
07 Oct 1999 , AP in Nashville, TN: The death of lyricist A.L. "Doodle" Owens is announced. He wrote dozens of country music hits for stars like Charley Pride, George Jones and Mo Bandy, died Monday. He was 68, Mr. Owens suffered a massive heart attack Sept. 16 and was hospitalized at Select Specialty Hospital Nashville, He had survived a series of heart and kidney ailments in the early 1990s, Mr. Owens' hits include "Wine Colored Roses ' for Jones, "Johnny One Time" for Brenda Lee and "Hank and Lefty Raised My Country Soul" for Stoney Edwards. "Doodle could paint pictures with his songwriting" said Dallas Frazier, a songwriter, Mr. Owens got the nickname "Doodle" as a child because he crawled backward. "There's a bug called the doodle bug that does everything backward," said Mary Ann Owens, his widow. "So his uncle named him Doodle Bug. He's been Doodle ever since."
I want to stay with Brenda Lee we were from Conyers and Lithonia Georgia I didn't particularly care for her she was not my kind of people but she had a fantastic voice she really did I did run around with her for first cousins but her I didn't like at all we just didn't connect but she's was just a little girl but I know that she and I didn't connect in any way and that's okay but I will not say that she was not fantastic when it comes to singing Because she was one of the best
Thanks for the comment. I understand about "school", not "stay". Were the cousins Yarbroughs or Tarpleys? I have a group family picture and not sure if it is her mother's or father's side.
Tom Forsythe Unfortunately every 1970’s hairstyle and clothing style absolutely sucked green ditch water! No matter what we wore, hair or clothes, we always looked like crap. The whole decade was basically crap - economy, style, you name it. I think here poor Brenda was just a victim of the times!
You might want to click on the "I Think I Love You Again" link at the end of the video which was taped about the same time as this one. Brenda never dressed "sexy" and her manager didn't market her that way either. Additionally, she is so small that the whole wardrobe had to go to a seamstress first.
To Pam Heart .. her albums came down early with early hits. Johnny one time grown up times. I was 10. My step dad I'm her lap at some Venue in Toronto. Years later in my 20's at the Royal York, Toronto with my Bio parents, dad has pix with her, I get an autograph, i am so drunk Dad has to help me to my suite lol lol

No autotune here, she's the real deal.

Brenda has had some illnesses over the years, but she generally keeps things quiet. Side note: She has a half-sister who lives in Pigeon Forge.
I'm 63 year old from Somerset England and I just adore this woman's voice, out standing!!!
I am a 76 year old black from Georgia. I've loved Brenda Lee's music all of my life.
Georgia is Brenda's home state. At 6 or 7 years old, she already could be heard on Atlanta radio and later in Augusta, GA.
me too. she was my first love when i was a young man
Mack, So have I. I am your age and live in Oz.
👍🏼 she had feel!
music is color-blind. and she's one of the very best.
I am a 56 year old woman from Illinois and I love Brenda Lee and her music ❤
Johnny 2 timer❤

I just LOVE the gal's music and talent

Love it. No miming, no autotune, just get up and do it. Talent in abundance, a very rare commodity in these days of instant "stardom".
It's my favorite video of her on our channel. She does so many things in this performance that it would take a blog entry to describe them all.
@@MostlyBrenda It's such a great song too. I also like the version by the Four King Cousins.
Fantastic singer
Cant stop listening to Brenda Lee. Im totally addicted to her voice .lv from Marie in Ireland
I am a 70 year old human being from God's world and Brenda is a great singer and this song brings back so many memories from my childhood.
She is the best and my hat is off to the writer/writers of the lyrics and melody!!
A great story set to wonderful music and sung by a sensitive artist.
I like that word "artist". That word is a rarity in music, these days.
Of of the top five ballads of all-time. Sung "perfectly" by Brenda. I could listen to this song every day for the rest of my life.
Yes, but the other four are also by Brenda: "All Alone Am I", "I Want to be Wanted", "Break It to Me Gently" and "Losing You" 😀
Perfectly is CORRECT, Like Andy Williams song Lonely Street.
Such power, perfect tone ....will never be another Brenda, or Patsy.
Heard this song as a kid. Loved it. Im62 now and it still cuts me deeply
Que canción tan hermosísima como su intérprete y que recuerdo tan divino de esa época tan maravillosa
Tres belle chanson
I love this song by Brenda Lee. The best of the best.
Fantastsic performer. Such a unique beautiful angelic voice. I could listen to her all day, just like I can listen to Dolly Parton.
❤ i love her , saw her in Grove, Ok.
Don't know Grove, but looking in my digital scrapbook of Brenda articles, I find an ad for her appearance at the "Grand Grove Opry" on Oct 24, 1998.
SUCH A SWEETHEART ❤
No Words cannot describe this lovely unique talent too powerful than words can express Love her older songs big hit "I am Sorry" is just amazing.
Learned to phrase perfectly very early. Combine that with a unique stage presence and fantastic voice projection and the result is a thoroughly dynamic performer.
And she developed all those things by herself.
Thanks for the time at the Palms with Kilgore and Tony Brown.
Brenda Lee has a awesome voice I love it
Had the blessing of meeting Brenda in 1998. Sweet woman and was proud to meet her.
A special gift to all her fans round this world.
Brenda has given of her self her whole life through and has made the world a better place.
Love you Brenda always,
Bill.
As her beauty steals my breath away, and welcome to it Bren!
This is one of my great songs sings by Brenda Lee. I love har sens I was a young man. Right know, I´am a 79 years old man
Love this song also a huge shout out to this very classy lady , ty for this great music u sang so beautifully

Wow, I never thought I would get chills watching a Brenda Lee video. What a great performance!
She has a God given gift to sing. Just Beautiful

No pude dejar de emocionarme. Gracias por publicar esta canción.
had the privilege to hear ''brenda in concert'' many years back, she will always remain a ''superstar'' to me. ''ever lasting memories'' wayne..

Thank you!
This is a great song.
Brenda Lee was one of the best with great songs, thank you for your comment, Kay.
Special Lady, so many things have to come together to make someone like Brenda, more than there are stars in the sky.
Think about johnny one time, one of Brendas best
Good Brenda lee knows All about love and hurt
I'm 69 and I'll never stop country music 🎶
Thanks ☺️
excelente interprete y sobre todo de esta canción que me trae hermosos recuerdos, gracias Brenda.
I love her so much. Just don't know what else to say.
Vc é a excelência, é a pessoinha mais linda, e a cantora inssuperável, tudo na sua voz é maravilhoso

My microphone was supposed to have said I went to school with her and I did I can't get my phone fixed because all the stores are closed
Thanks for the comment. I understand about "school", not "stay". Were the cousins Yarbroughs or Tarpleys? I have a group family picture and not sure if it is her mother's or father's side.

No disrespect, but she looks a lot older than her 26 years here.
I believe Willie Nelson wrote this song for Brenda.
No, Willie didn't write it. Full information about the song is in the description.
