Conway Twitty started out as a rock and roll singer with his 1959 hit It's Only Make Believe. Then he changed over to a country music singer and the rest is history. Sebs if you haven't reacted to It's Only Make Believe, I think you should. I really think you won't be disappointed.

Those were the days. Conway had a way of his own. I too think this Country music stands on its own. Great to hear Conway this morning. He died way too early.
This may be Conway's biggest Country hit, but It's Only Make Believe which was released as a Rock and Roll song was his biggest hit. I love Conway, he truly is smooth.
There was a "one hit wonder" later, maybe early 90s/late 80s, named Jeff Bates who reminds me so much of Conway! Check out 🎶 Long Slow Kisses 🎶, even if you don't do a reaction video of the song, you will enjoy listening to it since you enjoy Conways voice! ❤
I'm 66, I have listened to him all my life. He was also a beginner Rock and Roll singer. He has so many beautiful songs. 😊 "Hello Darlin'!" Is a catchphrase that we KNOW is him. ❤
I grew up listening to mom's country music. I went outside to play one day and mom was laying out in the sun w/the radio on, and I saw here crying...I asked her what was wrong, and she said Conway died, and they're playing all of his songs. I consider 'Hello Darlin' the 2nd greatest country song ever of really close behind George's "He Stopped Loving Her Today".
I was fortunate enough to see Conway in concert back in the mid 80's and he very rarely interacted verbally with the audience at all. Just one song after another for 2 plus hours. Some tried to bash him for not talking to the audience more and his reasoning was this.... I have a lot of songs out there and if I take the time to talk, I would have to skip some songs. One of those songs could be someone's favorite and I never want to disappoint a fan like that! Classic Conway!
Thank you, great reaction. This one and 'Lay You Down' are my favorites from Conway. I was glad to hear they had decided to repair his old home place. My grandmother took me to "Twitty City" like 35 years ago. We went to Graceland, Loretta Lynn's place, and on several tours around Nashville. I've stood on the Ryman stage. It was a magical trip. Grandmother taught me to love country music. She got up and buck danced at a Micky Gilly concert one time. She was a very special lady, a real hoot, and Conway Twitty was one of her faves.
Conway was the consummate performer. The man could sing the dictionary and be great. And he was such a nice guy. My mom and my aunt met him at a club in the 60's. My mom liked him, but my aunt adored him. He kissed her on the cheek and all she could do for the rest of the day was say his name over and over!
The play length of older songs is fairly easy to explain. Much of pop, country, etc. played on old AM radio. AM studios were advertiser-driven, so songs were kept to between 2-3 minutes so that ads could be run between songs. On the other hand, rock (metal, progressive, etc.) was often played on FM radio which were often independent, and while they still sold advertising time, usually commercials ran in blocks. Since rock was mostly a longform art style, FM radio allowed for a much longer song to be played. This would usually be followed by a 5-ish minute block of ads, but FM listeners were typically very loyal to their stations and would stay tuned rather than switch during the commercials. Hope this helps throw some light on the subject for you.
He grew up right down the road from me. Mr and Mrs Jenkins ran a supper club on Moon Lake in Mississippi and Conway woukd stop in on occasion to sing. Befire he was Conway, he was just Harold Jenkins.
You gotta give major kudos to the country songwriters for being able to tell an entire story in 3 minutes or less. Think about it. That means there is zero room for a single "throw away" word. Every word counts. Not to mention they make all the lyrics adhere to a rhyming scheme! I've always said, the songwriter's are the unsung heroes of the songs. Hundreds, thousands of songwriters over the years have gone unrecognized because everyone assumes the artists who recorded the songs were the writers. Take, just as one example, the mega hit songs "Never Been to Spain" (Three Dog Night), "Joy to the World (a.k.a., "Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog") (Three Dog Night), "Greenback Dollar" (The Kingston Trio), "The No, No Song" (Ringo Starr), etc. etc. All written by Hoyt Axton. The average person on the street probably never heard of him.
Hoyt Axton was super talented, not just as a songwriter, but as a singer/performer as well!! And I love that Corey from "Three Dog Night" was friends with Hoyt. They used to go fishing together often. Good memories!
@@pinky2245 Not to mention he played the role of the dad in the 80s classic, "Gremlins"! I also remember he had a guest role on the TV series, Bonanza, back in the 60s. ;-)
His Grandson goes on tour with Loretta Lynn's granddaughter and have a duo called Twitty and Lynn! They talk about their history and Tre ALWAYS says no one wanted to follow Conway on the stage because he blew it out of the water. Im talking big name performers. He is known as the voice that is the best friend a song ever had.
This song is written fantastically, and it's suited so well to Conway's gravelly voice. My Conway Twitty favorites are 'Make Believe,' 'Lay You Down' and 'Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man.' In the Classic Country era (roughly 1965-1985, in my opinion), they only wrote long songs if they had a lot to say.
I've listened to Country since 1972 and am a rock convert. Songs of that era were short so they could fit a radio format. They were all 3 minutes or less unless you saw them live. 🙂
Talk about tearjerkers. If drinking don’t kill me, her memory will. Just 1, of many many hits. Please, by the way these Conway, Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, is considered CLASSIC COUNTRY.
I love Conway Twitty. He was such a amazing person says he the High Priest of Country. They say he was so honest and never owed anyone anything even if his companies went under. I want to cry when he sings a lot of his songs. He is smooth he has the Star factor and I think because he got signed to play Professional Baseball and he has that smooth physique IMO and his signature move after his song at his last note he reminds me of Hitting Grand-Slam. And this is what I see of Howard Jenkins ( Conway Twitty). Gone too soon at 59 years old
Grew up in Nashville. Listened to country whether I wanted to or not. Mom was a major fan( she still is at almost 86!). So I love classic country and classic rock.Mom was a big Waylon Jennings fan, his road manager moved in across the street and she was given his Cedartown Georgia album before it was released. It played for weeks on her stereo. If you haven't checked out Waylon before his outlaw days you should.
looks like that was the 20th CMA awards show.. and we are now in the 40s of CMA... the song was already many years old when he appeared on that show. He's a legend and is sorely missed in our genre. Thanks for always being willing to give ALL country music a listen. Top 40 in 2024 is boring!!
Conway was a force of nature. I always loved this song. It's the only song I recall that has no chorus, no verses in the real sense of the word -- just a straight-line recitation of love and heartbreak.
Conway Twitty is referenced in many songs. One I think you'll enjoy, especially with the official music video, is Blake Shelton's "Honey Bee." A very sappy, upbeat, and feel good song.
I saw him perform this song on stage. He is exactly the same! I grew up listening to Conway and Loretta. In 1992 I took my mother to a concert so she could see them in person. Conway didn't miss a beat, he said Hello Darlin just as he walked on stage and the crowd went nuts! Loretta was also wonderful. Sadly about 3 months later my mother passed away, but We had talked about those great moments a lot before she passed. I cried my eyes out when I heard that Conway died. I sat in front of the stereo and bawled. One of the best parts of my childhood had died.
In the early days of radio, only AM was available so most “Hits” were 2:30-2:45 minutes long and played in mono. Not until FM did album length tracks “playable” to the masses in a stereo technology that did not exist for AM. So many of these “Short” songs place them 0:300:300:300:300:30 selves in the “AM date and timeframe.” Now with streaming services time is no longer a factor in recording and production. The first song to break the mold was “American Pie.” Radio was not prepared to air a song of that length but it set a record for the longest AM song!
The radio stations back then wouldn't play songs they said went over a certain time. You should hear Conway with his duet partner Loretta Lynn. A good one would be, When I hang up the phone. Then if you want something funny you want their song You're the reason our kids are ugly.
conway twitty was my mother's favorite singer. i remember being a little kid and her weeping at the kitchen table when she heard he passed. we had all his music on cassette tapes and when we'd make trips back home to oklahoma to visit my grandparents that's what she put on and we both sang the whole way there. My "conway twitty" is the country music artist Gary Allan. I noticed you havent reacted to him yet so i HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving him a listen. Love your channel, Thanks for diving into country and giving it the love it deserves.
Songs were shorter then because the singers depended on plays on the radio, and the stations would no longer records back then. It was hard for Queen to get Bohemian Rapsody played. Watch the movie Bohemian Rapsody.
I, grew up listening to him also with the other greats, and saw him live twice. Once when he came to town, I was about 13? Or so, then after I got married years later and my Mom and Dad wanted to go to the “GRAND OLE OPRY, so I took time off work, we went to Nashville and did see him perform and my Mom and Dad and I thoroughly enjoyed the show. However, he didn’t interact with the audience at all. I, was very disappointed with that, and, he also was that way when I 1st saw him when I was younger.
He was my favorite country singer. My number 2 is King George.❤There is old country music which is authentic country. Then there is the new country music which is country pop .
For someone with a smooth voice, try listening to Jim Reeves or Eddy Arnold. They were the start of the Nashville sound, with strings and orchestras, moving away from the twangy nasal sounds of Ernest Tubb, Jimmy Rodgers, and other originals from The Grand Ole Opry. My family and I used to turn on our AM radio and tune in to WSM Radio out of Nashville and listen to those early greats of country music
in MY opinion, this is what was called "Country/Western" music! then it became "Country" music and now its ??? who knows! but duets with Queen Loretta Lynn are the best!! lots of love Sebs!!
My favorite thing about the old stars. They didn’t have to be supermodels. They just sang. I miss that. Seems like now, they pick the most beautiful then figure out if the can sing
![SAFEPLANET - ดาวเคราะห์ [ THE PLANET ]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/4X1XL3I_k3c/mqdefault.jpg)
Modern country is not Country, it is pop music.
I love watching reactors discover the music and the legends. Its a beautiful thing
Conway Twitty started out as a rock and roll singer with his 1959 hit It's Only Make Believe. Then he changed over to a country music singer and the rest is history. Sebs if you haven't reacted to It's Only Make Believe, I think you should. I really think you won't be disappointed.
One of my favorite songs for almost 50 years now... geez lol
Lonely Blue Boy shows his Elvis side. And hair.
Fifteen Years Ago is another great
I'm 61yrs old and Conway Twittie he was one of the GOAT'S back when I was young, I'm pure old school music, My Father was Inducted into the Atlanta Country Music Hall of Fame back in the late 80's, He's my Hero and always will be, Thank You Daddy R.I.P
Thank you Sebs loved your reaction reaction hope you have a blessed day 🙏 sending you love from Lafayette Georgia 🍑 Please give Ali and your girls a hug 🫂
My brother is in tunnel hill... love it down there... and love some Conway... thanks Sebs... great reaction ❤❤❤
Sure do like this one from Conway. A really great one! 😊Thanks, Michael!!
Good Bye Time Conway Twitty is another tear jerking song he sang when he got the Living Legend Award
Those were the days. Conway had a way of his own. I too think this Country music stands on its own. Great to hear Conway this morning. He died way too early.
"Linda on my mind" is another good one.
lol one of my favorites!! i wonder why!?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
"Lead Me On", a duet with Conway and Loretta Lynn, is a must hear! One of my all time favorites...
This may be Conway's biggest Country hit, but It's Only Make Believe which was released as a Rock and Roll song was his biggest hit. I love Conway, he truly is smooth.

Two words. That's all it takes. Just "Hello, Darlin'."
I'm 66, I have listened to him all my life. He was also a beginner Rock and Roll singer.
He has so many beautiful songs. 😊 "Hello Darlin'!" Is a catchphrase that we KNOW is him. ❤
My favorite "Twitty " song is " Only Make Believe "

We call this “Old School” Country ❤ Grew up listening to this kind of music. I am now 63. My parents played it on the radio all the time.
You hear those two words and you know right away who it is

Conway's voice has been called "a songwriters best friend". I have to agree
in the start of Conway's career he sang rock and roll. So did Kenny Roger .( Kenny's band was called ' the First Edition"
"Rainy Night in Georgia" by Conway Twitty and Sam Moore is still one of my favorite duet songs.
Seriously...over George Benson? I respect your opinion. God bless you.
Sorry, meant Brook Benton
He grew up right down the road from me. Mr and Mrs Jenkins ran a supper club on Moon Lake in Mississippi and Conway woukd stop in on occasion to sing. Befire he was Conway, he was just Harold Jenkins.
Always listen to their best versions!
I cried when he passed away. Also George Jones. And omg Toby.
I grew up listening to country music with my parents. I am 52 years old. The country music today is just not the same as it was back then.
You got that right!!
Neither is rock or pop or R&B!
I enjoy you're reactions . I would love to see you react to murder on music row. It's a live performance by George Strait and Alan Jackson.
Totally agree, old country is the best
So true. I’m 66 and clearly remember my parents listening to the “The Grand Ole Opry

You HAVE to check out Jason Aldean’s Burning it down. Soooo sexy…..n❤
When he dropped the first line in concerts the panties and bras were flying on stage!
Conway Twitty was one of the most romantic singers ever.
Conway feels his music great singer

Goodbye Time is my favorite Conway song. It’s just so true.
This is my favorite Conway Twitty song. I can remember listening to lots of his songs driving. 😊

Conway was great. R.I.P His first hit, I think, was It's Only Make Believe which is great
He opened his concert with this song! Love me some Conway Twitty he closes with It’s Only Make Believe, saw him in Dallas ❤
As a child of the 80s, we all knew to hush when Mama cranked up the radio on a Conway Twitty song!
Lol that would be my kids too
Love some Conway. He has alot of great songs including those with Loretta
My absolutely favorite Conway song is "Only Make Believe"
One of the greatest country songs ever
Thank you. His nickname was NO SHOW JONES, because he was always drinking and would start his shows when he was good and ready. I luv them all.
Hello from Utah. Conway's songs made many babies lol. I think you're my favorite reactor
I have such a crush for Conway, not the best looking man but his voice and words, gets me.
This song was huge in my teen years ❤!
I really wish you would Hear:
“Goodbye Time”
The original - Conway….then
Cover by - Blake Shelton
I have been a Conway fan for 30+ years. Still a big fan...just love his music❤
Another smooth singer Freddy Hart easy lovin

check out Goodbye Time, it was recorded just a couple of years before he passed. Love Conway, was fortunate enough to see him a few times in concert.
I could listen to his opening two words all day long❣️
There are a multitude of reasons Conway Twitty was known as "The Best Friend A Song Ever Had." This song is one of those reasons! ❤
Conway, my favorite of all time.
Took my mom to a Conway Twitty concert once, then went out and bought two of his cd's because he was sooo good,
Have no idea how many babies were made to Conway but I'm betting a lot. My parents were huge Conway (country music) fans so grew up listening to him.
In the early days of radio, only AM was available so most “Hits” were 2:30-2:45 minutes long and played in mono.

He sounds great but even GREATER IN HIS YOUNGER VERSIONS
Check out George Jones singing this song in a tribute to Conway when he died. His voice broke. SO sad, but touching.
The radio stations back then wouldn't play songs they said went over a certain time. You should hear Conway with his duet partner Loretta Lynn. A good one would be, When I hang up the phone. Then if you want something funny you want their song You're the reason our kids are ugly.
Love country music..
I’m 52, still get goosebumps listening to this man ❤
They used to say when George Jones sang there wasn't a dry eye in the house... when Conway sang? There wasn't a dry seat in the place.
LOVE seeing ur reaction to these songs. Takes me back to my youth and heating this for the first time.❤
The 2 words, Hello Darlin sounds so much better from his younger days
Somebody please add Conway’s song, Slow Hand to the list. I can’t find it. I know Seb’s will like it.
Yes, and The Rose!
conway twitty was my mother's favorite singer. i remember being a little kid and her weeping at the kitchen table when she heard he passed. we had all his music on cassette tapes and when we'd make trips back home to oklahoma to visit my grandparents that's what she put on and we both sang the whole way there. My "conway twitty" is the country music artist Gary Allan. I noticed you havent reacted to him yet so i HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving him a listen. Love your channel, Thanks for diving into country and giving it the love it deserves.
Songs were shorter then because the singers depended on plays on the radio, and the stations would no longer records back then. It was hard for Queen to get Bohemian Rapsody played. Watch the movie Bohemian Rapsody.
You are so right back then the songs were very short, and I agree listening to them know I wish they were longer too
I, grew up listening to him also with the other greats, and saw him live twice. Once when he came to town, I was about 13?

However, he didn’t interact with the audience at all. I, was very disappointed with that, and, he also was that way when I 1st saw him when I was younger.
My poor dad when he was young, he looked like Conway, dark curly hair, blue eyes, polyester leisure suits, now at 80, he looks like Mr. Magoo 🤣🤣
Sometimes it’s not only the looks. Being witty, serious, fun, smart, that counts too.
Kiss an Angel Good Mornin' my fave Conway song
He was my favorite country singer. My number 2 is King George.❤There is old country music which is authentic country. Then there is the new country music which is country pop .
“Leave some chicks for the rest of us!”
Love that reaction🥰
that was cute!
That’s about the coolest thing I’ve heard you say Sebs!!! 😁
This is real country and to see you admire it is amazing
Older country is sooooo much better!!!
Had to like this before you ever started the video! Welcome to the country my friend!
This song came out when it was called Country Western music. And when the music changed it then called Country
When I was a kid, I went to our neighborhood convenience store, Twitty's Itty-Bitty Store. 😊 Not sure if he owned it, but he did live in my city.
Conway Twitty and Loretta lynn, made several ABLUMS today
There's a genre of country music labeled western music.
I think you would like Eddy Arnold singing Cattle Call.
Eddy was a smooth singer.
Back in the day, the songs had to fit radio. So they kept them under 3 minutes. 2-2:30 was the goal to get your song on the radio.
For someone with a smooth voice, try listening to Jim Reeves or Eddy Arnold. They were the start of the Nashville sound, with strings and orchestras, moving away from the twangy nasal sounds of Ernest Tubb, Jimmy Rodgers, and other originals from The Grand Ole Opry. My family and I used to turn on our AM radio and tune in to WSM Radio out of Nashville and listen to those early greats of country music
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ .. this is soooooooo good Sebs !!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
George Jones song He stopped loving her today is a must hear.Conway is one of the best love him.
in MY opinion, this is what was called "Country/Western" music!
then it became "Country" music and now its ??? who knows!
but duets with Queen Loretta Lynn are the best!!
lots of love Sebs!!
Iconic country music from a simple time in American history.
Went to Marble falls,TX. Several years ago and we seen Conway's Grandson perform at the opera house and let me tell you he is an awesome singer🥰🥰
My favorite thing about the old stars. They didn’t have to be supermodels. They just sang. I miss that. Seems like now, they pick the most beautiful then figure out if the can sing
They were just folks. Folks with talent and incredible decency.
