When you get looking for something maybe abit different,check out Patty Loveless live doing You'll never leave Harlan Alive. I consider it kind of like a memorial to the old time Coal miners. My Grandpa also dug coal. Although he dug coal in a different South East Kentucky county than Harlan.
They had such a love and respect for each other, it was always fun to watch them interact. I loved the look in Kenny’s eyes right before Dolly came out. He knew they were about to blow the roof off the building.
I was SO BLESSED to see Kenny LIVE IN CONCERT 7 times!! He was SO AMAZING!! And YES, i got to see KENNY and DOLLY together...1 of my ALL TIME favorite concerts! ❤🎉
I had the absolute pleasure to meet Kenny Rogers many years ago. He is very genuine, a complete gentleman, and a fabulous storyteller. I was honored to have had a conversation with him. Of course, it was at Dollywood.
I saw it in person, though I was a very little child at the time. I knew I loved the music but I didn't understand at the time the "status" of the people I was watching. I sure do now. But that is etched in my memory.
You MUST react to You Can't Make Old Friends! Their last recorded duet together. Kenny would always say his camera and light man up above him (in the round) had the best seat in the house when Dolly was in concert with him!! LMBO!!❤😂
...eeeehhhhhhh... were they, though? That is, I'm not saying anything here, but MR's Q is legit and KR doesn't always *perform* (my take, 1983 concert). By the same token, I think MR is right: pre-recorded. As a simple comparison, take a look at the original: Bob Seger- We've Got Tonight live - TH-cam. So far as this video goes: the camera-cutting, the off-screen mic... idk either way, but that's the way I saw it then & still see it now. No issues either way.
@@soarabove337Nope. That was live. I was there and i’d have been able to tell if it wasn’t. Besides that, if a person pays attention, the lips will ALWAYS give away a lip sync. There will always be little difference beats on certain syllables where they don’t quiiiiiiite match with a word. You just have to look for them.
Yes he sure did that a lot. Seems a lot of artists in that day did it. I have no idea how the sound people or what tech may have been involved but it was a "showy" thing IMO. I don't know how else to describe it?
@@trixiebella Back then, the mic to & fro was used same as it is now, tho to a lesser degree, I'm sure: to add or diminish the vocals, as needed. What MR is asking - I'll not make a big deal about it, but I had the same Qs at the time - is how does the sound remain constant whilst moving the mic to or fro? Completely constant. Exactly constant, even. 🤔 Take a look at the original Bob Seger live version and he's moving ~around~ the mic to lend inflection where he wants it. (This is not to disparage Kenny or his rendition; his legacy stands on its own & one has nothing to do with the other, so far as this video production goes. Even so, MR is familiar with her own profession & perhaps not so familiar with how "movie magic" got made for our 27" SUPER-low-def Zeniths back in ye olde days lol. 😂)
I love this song and their version is my favorite. I had the luck to see Kenny for my very first concert... with the same "Dolly" surprise. I am so glad I got to see that!! At the time I just enjoyed the music as I was very little and didn't know the icons that I was actually seeing! Great reaction Maggie!
You are an opera singer who sings without a mic. Some can sing with it some can’t sing without it. Seen her live at Dollywood. She was singing to about 20 of us
Maybe I'm mis-remembering, "We've Got Tonight" was written for Kenny Rogers and Sheena Easton, "Islands in the Stream" was the memorable song for Kenny and Dolly.
I had the pleasure of seeing Dolly and Kenny live in the late 90 or 91. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. You could see the love and respect they had for each other and how much they loved performing together qnd for the audience.
That was absolutely amazing 👌🤩😂👍. They look so wonderful to gether. Thank you so much for reacting to this song... Maggie. I think you are wonderful 🙏🌹❤️👍👌. What an awesome live performance by two legends. I only wish I had Kenny Rogers voice and vocal chords. R.I.P Kenny. You and your golden voice will never ever be forgotten. Once again thank you so very much for the reaction. Take care of yourself and stay safe and stay blessed Maggie 🙏🌹❤️😘🤟🤟
I saw Loretta Lynn 4 years ago, she's older and had some trouble remembering some songs, but when she started singing it was fantastic. All these acts are legendary and I wish I could've seen Kenny live.
There's got to be some sort of technique thing going on cause if you notice both Dolly and Kenny will move the mike away/drop it if they aren't actively singing. Though I do get your question with how he is still being picked up but maybe they are THAT hot and both of them are using their voices to manage. Makes me wonder how different the mikes were back then (cause this was back when transistors were just beginning to be used in amplification) interesting questions...
Music and comedy banter in one show. In the preset social era few people would feel as free to be off the cuff as this. Lets hope we can see more of this kind of spontaneity, we could all use a good laugh. 🌛
Love them both, I grew up listening to their songs, and now I have them stuck in my mind forever, amazing, and very funny performance!! Great reaction, thank you for this uploading, Maggie!!! 🌛💖
hi these are the best country singers ever.. cough cough growing up listening them playing on my mums records in the 70s... kenny Don't Take Your Love to Town.. and dolly Because I Love You... so so sad these days are over.. when they sang together the chemistry between them both worked so well.. RIP Kenny
Absolutely two of my favorite singers, they were really great friends and had great stage presents together, really enjoyed your reaction and there performance
Bob Seger drew criticism when this song first hit the airwaves because of the subject matter. Yet within a few years that pretty much no longer mattered when others covered it, in truth the banter between Dolly and Kenny is more risqué than the song. Good performance, good reaction, good edit. And how did he do that microphone trick?
I watched the mic movements after you brought it up. When his voice was softer, it was closer. When he put more energy into the words he held it further away. Perhaps this gave the impression that the volume was the same. However, watching the mechanics (chest, throat, mouth and body movement) it was obvious that he was changing the energy of his delivery for different lines and then moved the microphone. I see many singers do this, most notably rock and metal singers will move the microphone with some exceptions. This is likely more attributed to the fact that most rock/metal singers do not have classical training and often learned on the fly and find unique ways of delivering their vocals. These older recordings with the exception of the poorly designed studios that artists regularly found ways to mock. Musicians including the vocalists were frustrated with lip-syncing and pretend playing at those shows that showcased music without being set up to deliver live music and let it be known creatively. Artists like Kenny Rogers can actual sing and don't need to use tricks. This again, goes for most artists at that time.
I disagree; that is to say, I agree w/ MR. Now, my Elacs or my own ears may be deceiving me... I'll accept it either way... but the tone & pitch - to say nothing of the volume lol - did not change at all, regardless of the mic distance. To be sure, my assessment of the energy of his performance matches yours. It's just the actual output did not match what we were seeing. So I'm going to go with pre-recorded. KR didn't lip sync, but the actual audio was overlayed with the video portrayed. I'm sure of it lol.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Pentatonix video reaction I recently posted? Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
🤔🙄🤷♂️ ......ooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrr it may be bad editing (nowadays) for a video made in another era lol. Imo, one only need to watch Bob Seger's original to see his in & out from the mic to wonder if this vid was edited in post-production; and perhaps heavily so lol. 😁👍
Mics were not dynamic back then, and sometimes you had to share a mic so they would feed back, thats why you see sometimes when they duet one would hide the mic behind themselves
just something cool. My parents went to this concert. Maybe not the exact one they filmed but this was from a tour Kenny and Dolly did together and my parents got to go.
@@billsturm9225 My parents took me when I was very young. I remember it well. But had no idea at the time how lucky I was to see Kenny and Dolly in person. I'm so glad now I got the chance and remember it as little as I was!
Kenny & Dolly would neeeever lip sync. They felt a live performance called for actual singing. IDK why but some vocal coaches teach that moving the microphone close then pulling it away is a performance technique.
Can you please do a reaction video of Miley Cyrus' vocals of Nothing Else Matters (Metallica)? She sang it back in September along with James. Your perspective of her voice in a metal song as a female will be appreciated! Thanks and keep up the amazing videos!
Because it’s not that low and he refused to ever sing except live. And his mic isn’t filtered like yours. Also dolly isn’t even a recorded singer of this song

If you liked Kenny and Dolly duets, my absolute favorite is "Islands in the Stream."
Kenny was a master of moving the mic away as he was singing louder.
They had such a love and respect for each other, it was always fun to watch them interact. I loved the look in Kenny’s eyes right before Dolly came out. He knew they were about to blow the roof off the building.
I was SO BLESSED to see Kenny LIVE IN CONCERT 7 times!! He was SO AMAZING!! And YES, i got to see KENNY and DOLLY together...1 of my ALL TIME favorite concerts! ❤🎉
RIP Kenny. You are deeply missed thanks for all of the great music you gave us over all the years.
He sure did. And a few movies along the way too!
I had the absolute pleasure to meet Kenny Rogers many years ago. He is very genuine, a complete gentleman, and a fabulous storyteller. I was honored to have had a conversation with him. Of course, it was at Dollywood.
Two icons, legends, great performers, live on tour, and what a show! 🌛
I saw it in person, though I was a very little child at the time. I knew I loved the music but I didn't understand at the time the "status" of the people I was watching. I sure do now. But that is etched in my memory.
Cant' wait to see you tonight! 🤘💖
You MUST react to You Can't Make Old Friends! Their last recorded duet together. Kenny would always say his camera and light man up above him (in the round) had the best seat in the house when Dolly was in concert with him!! LMBO!!❤😂
When he goes louder he pulls the mic away. And this is the 80s. The mics were very different...

Tim foist has a new double song combo. “Will you still love me tomorrow”/“Stay” by the FOUR SEASONS! Yes, he does “ Stay” in falsetto!!! 😱😱😱
The mic thing is something he did often. I think it’s a mixture of the sound guys and the way he projects his voice.
Yes he sure did that a lot. Seems a lot of artists in that day did it. I have no idea how the sound people or what tech may have been involved but it was a "showy" thing IMO. I don't know how else to describe it?
@@trixiebella Back then, the mic to & fro was used same as it is now, tho to a lesser degree, I'm sure: to add or diminish the vocals, as needed.

They both were great people by all accounts. She still is. RIP Kenny.
Always great to hear Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton singing together, and it is good to have you back. Thank you.🌙
dolly is a born star if there ever was one, it's effortless for her, she's got comedic timing too
I used to watch dolly when she was a teenager singing on a local show in the tri state area of Kentucky, Virginia, and Tennessee called cas walkers.
Kenny and Dolly are both iconic legends.
Absolutely one of the best concerts I ever went to was Kenny Rogers in the round. The man was amazing!
I love this song and their version is my favorite. I had the luck to see Kenny for my very first concert... with the same "Dolly" surprise. I am so glad I got to see that!! At the time I just enjoyed the music as I was very little and didn't know the icons that I was actually seeing! Great reaction Maggie!
Sorry, but I'm a Bob Seger version kind of guy lol. Also, the original, so there's that. 😏👍
Icons. Both. Love this fun fun fun performance. I'd give anything to see a Maggie/Dolly collab
The microphone thing is so dope....A thing is his voice had so much projection....it was insane!
My husband was a big Dolly parton Kenny Rogers fan. Oh, those were great times.
Kennys live version of Lady is another amazing song to listen to.
You are an opera singer who sings without a mic. Some can sing with it some can’t sing without it. Seen her live at Dollywood. She was singing to about 20 of us
Did you know Barry Gibbs wrote the song Islands in the stream for Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton
Cant get a better Country singer then Dolly.
❤🎶🎼
Did you already see them singing their huge hit "Islands in the Stream" already?? If not I highly recommend it. The Bee Gees wrote the song btw. 😉❤✌🏼
Maybe I'm mis-remembering, "We've Got Tonight" was written for Kenny Rogers and Sheena Easton, "Islands in the Stream" was the memorable song for Kenny and Dolly.
They have such CHEMISTRY!
I had the pleasure of seeing Dolly and Kenny live in the late 90 or 91. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. You could see the love and respect they had for each other and how much they loved performing together qnd for the audience.

Kenny Rogers singing in PLAY BACK. WoW!!!
Two of the most class acts in Country music. I loved this. Thank you !!
@7:11 Dolly is going to be Dolly & watching her do the Kenny thing put a smile on another singer's face... priceless!
I hope that Sheena Easton diss was comical! The banter between Kenny and Dolly was cute!
They were the best friends ever, they loved each other
I saw Loretta Lynn 4 years ago, she's older and had some trouble remembering some songs, but when she started singing it was fantastic. All these acts are legendary and I wish I could've seen Kenny live.

Band-Maid and BABYMATAL is the best thing that has happned to Rock/Metal in decades!!!!!

Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Best onstage chemistry ever.
Omni directional mic
Dolly was savage
Dolly Parton is an amazing person. She is an awesome singer, songwriter, business woman and humanitarian. Kenny was also a great singer.
Actually reminds me of the chemistry between Floor Jansen and Henk Poort.
But this joking around with each other was truely priceless.
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you at the Premiere of my new reaction video to NIGHTWISH tomorrow?
This is live!
Another nice one!
In Jan 2022, this song is on my Apple Music playlist. 😉
Bob Seger drew criticism when this song first hit the airwaves because of the subject matter. Yet within a few years that pretty much no longer mattered when others covered it, in truth the banter between Dolly and Kenny is more risqué than the song. Good performance, good reaction, good edit. And how did he do that microphone trick?
The criticism mainly came from the common misconception that this song is about “a one night stand”…that’s really not what it’s about.
I watched the mic movements after you brought it up. When his voice was softer, it was closer. When he put more energy into the words he held it further away.

Kenny Rogers ... LADY ... The live version
Kenny Rogers is my guilty pleasure.
Renee don’t worry about the tech stuff! You have KENNY ROGERS singing in front of you! Just enjoy!
This is a Bob Segar song... its a great song
Kenny is controlling his volume with the mic distances!
It would be lovely you reacted to a more vocally demanding Dolly song like late versions of I Will Always Love You or He's Alive
80's moon dynamic mic.
No Autotune in 80's, all Live...
No pre recording. His voice was that strong. Try watching Don Dokken. Same thing. He will hold mic to one side and then far away.
You need to check out the song from the Gibbs group
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You know she wrote Jolene and I Will Always Love You in the same day. Or so the story goes.
I'd love to hear your reaction to"Thank You" A Pentatonix original.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Pentatonix video reaction I recently posted? Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Maybe Kenny is using a clip-on microphone and is just using the hand microphone as a prop.
You want to be blown away do Kenny Rodgers and Lionel Richie lady the night has spoken lights out
It may be a different pickup pattern for stage performance.
🤔🙄🤷♂️
......ooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrr it may be bad editing (nowadays) for a video made in another era lol. Imo, one only need to watch Bob Seger's original to see his in & out from the mic to wonder if this vid was edited in post-production; and perhaps heavily so lol. 😁👍
What would you do to stand on stage and sing a duet with Dolly. In my opinion she is one of if not the best singer ever.
I'd love for you to sing Steve Winwoods CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME.!😃
Listen to the Sheena Easton version
The mics were very different 40 yes ago
His convert duet with Sheena Easton is much better quality.
Mics were not dynamic back then, and sometimes you had to share a mic so they would feed back, thats why you see sometimes when they duet one would hide the mic behind themselves
Do you.know how microphones worked in the 1980's???? I hate that the immediate reaction of those who are currently trained want to go negative.
You're going to like this video because they joke around a lot
Bob Seger - “We’ve Got Tonight” is better…check out a record version.
We had better mikes 30 years ago than you can get today
Good version though i preferred the bob seger and silver bullet band version.
Love their version, but I prefer Bob Seger's orginal.
In the mid 80s wireless mics did not work that well so yes their lip syncing
As lovely as Kenny’s duets of this were…you really have to do Bob Seger’s version…it’s his song…use the Record version if you do.
Yes. This. (Not that I'm actually recommending it for MR's review - it's not all that - but for awareness only.)
Love the reaction check out the singing island the stream live at Grammys cool channel thanks
YAY, first comment

People just want to see them 2
They don't care if it is Luis sync
People did not sing live too much
The video is not in sink. Read their lips.
Are you attempting to assassinate his reputation?
Because it’s not that low and he refused to ever sing except live. And his mic isn’t filtered like yours. Also dolly isn’t even a recorded singer of this song
Typo lips sync. Part 2
His intro seems lip synced, and switched once Dolly entered.
He's lip synching.
your mic and his mic doesnt look or sound anything alike, what gives.. heheh
i think he is lip syncing and dollys live. might be off a track.
