The older I get, the more I realize that the two best Ray Stevens songs are not “Guitarzan” or “The Streak” or even “it’s Me Again Margaret”, it’s actually these two. Both of these songs are masterpieces and extremely underrated.
The Ballad of the Blue Cyclone, part 1&2, are my favorites, and I never liked wrestling until Ray done this song.
@@robertshawiv1513 I've mad the "Blue Cyclone" on several wrestling games
Shriners Convention, another big hit, is underrated as well.
Ray Stevens is very talented and underrated, most of his songs are comedy but he has serious songs as well, all his songs are great no matter what they are.

Bravo!! Ray is a master singer song writer, comedian and pianist.
There’s no performer better than Ray Stevens. That’s my opinion and it should be yours too. 🤣
Really miss Johnny Carson. Still watching on TV 😃. Love this.
I remember Ray Stevens being funny when I was a kid back in the 80s and 90s but I ever appreciated how well he sings and plays the piano until seeing this performance. Very talanted arfist
I love this song. He can sure play that piano .
I love Ray Stevens ♥! He has great talent and a great sense of humor!
I never, ever thought this performance would ever surface online but there it is!! I'd read about Ray having appeared on "The Tonight Show" several times but this is the first time I've seen video of an appearance...and Johnny Carson holding the 1987 vinyl album in front of the camera. I had mistakenly assumed that Johnny told the audience before a commercial break that Ray Stevens was coming up and then, after the commercial break, the camera would already be on Ray. I had no idea that Johnny actually provided an introduction and promoted Ray's album before the performance...so that was something of a revelation to me.
"Rolex" is my absolute FAVOURITE of Ray's!
Okay, fine, we like Taylor Swift is stalking me and Jesus, loves the little children, we were there when the streaks came through, they were wearing jock straps. We think RAY STAGED THAT, to make fun of the CELTICS 😳🤠☺🌾🐄🌲🙄🎼🐄🐂📬☎️📞🦧❤💛™️🏰❓AFTER ALL THEY DO HAVE GREEN UNIFORMS AS WELL, OR USED TO for Saint Patrick's day.🤠🎄🙄🌲🎼🐄🐂📬to go with circus music 🎶❤💛❓googies and Facebook censors favorites?

Things are so different now, and not in a good way. 😟
@@Nan-59 Sadly this is very true.
RAY'S VERY HIGHEST HONOR, was two things, SO Far ☺. He has always ❤sang for the King:
Jesus loves me this I know 🎵 little kids know sometimes MORE. Because good parents teach them the scores, of lots of things, and 🎵🎶songs they sing,
Tell us all kinds of MOOSIC are nice, but AMERICAN MUSIC, can be chopsticks as well.
And. WHEN
RALPH EMORY, OF American Country,[which included rock and roll, and still does the Blues the oldtime Ryman, Opry, was a Church..... UTUBE Music has Ralph EMORY, interviewing RAY STEVENS,
hmmm, when had to be John R. Cash❓ passed On?
Please correct me, Maybe it was Roy Acuff, but anyway, Taylor Swift is still stalking me, or Everyone should watch THE GEORGE, MEMORIAL, WAS two years or more b4 we lost George. Emmylou CONFESSED STEALING TOGETHER AGAIN, AND NAOMI, The original Cougar, we Love SO VERY MUCH, REALLY Lay's it On George...... letting George know, just who the boss, really iz.☺☺☺☺❤🎎🤠😳find it, Watch it. Utube is really pretty good.
I wasn't even 5 when this aired...I love Ray Stevens though thanks to my grandmother! These videos don't have near enough views.
Thats a hard hitting song for all the rich televangelists!
Good songs, then and now. Appreciate you
Ray is still going. His venue in Nashville is called ‘Cabaray’. Ray also produced records for Monument back in the day of 45 RPM vinyl singles. A good one I remember is Jim Glaser’s “Thanks A Lot For Trying Anyway”.
Ray is a really good singer and songwriter.
There would be no Weird Al without Ray Stevens..THE GOAT!!!
Awesome!!!! Hallelujah!!!
We don't think of Ray as a pianist. Well he's an excellent one, a very talented man!
He played Piano at His Church as a teenager. His Pastor influenced Him to try His best to have His work recorded at age 17(I think)in Nadhville And He did & They did the recording !! 😊❤
Nashville!!
🙌
Absolutely awesome! As always, Thank you Mr. Stevens.
Thank you.
I own that album
❤❤❤❤❤
This is great!
Love this
The Rolex song was written by Chet Atkins and Margaret Archer. You can find Chet's version here on youtube.
This was a time in tv and radio when 4 letter words were not allowed
I think Butch Hartman should listen to “Would Jesus Wear a Rolex” tbh…
Still writing songs at 80..got into songs about politics
Oh, we don't need politics, our SCAMMERFONES will tell the pollsters. Thank ❤GOD For your Good COMMENT, Betty Echols, our Nation needs more people like you. We just found the HOOCHEE COOCHEE, Okeechobee girl song.... but the RALPH EMORY INTERVIEW, shows, RESPECT For all music, as long as it's Decent. Thankyou, so very much 💖💛💛💛💛❤🎄🌲💐💐💐📬☎️📞🐿☺🤠🏕go camping, it's peaceful. Ray sings about that as well, Folks. WRITE your SENATORS, many of them DO really care. They OFTEN DO listen 🎶and have many helping. It does cost money. But we can make a difference. ☺🤠🏕❤💛you made a difference for us.
One time, one phone call changed a LAW that would make My Wife lose, a whole summer to go back to Nursing School, when We had just got her through her State Board exams after near 5 years of school. ❤💛🏕📞🐿🏰⛳☺🤠golf is good for many people but we wish they would stock the ponds..... so often right near the clubhouse. ☺🤠⛳🛖🏝☺🤠
Nonono Jesus said to sell everything you have and follow him.
Age 49 here
Thanks for doing the math.
Ray seems to be a humble person. A child of God, a true believer.
Same here.
'In a nut shell' that is all of the points of conflict, shall we say.
Jim and his bimbo Tammy.
The 'Reverand' Al Sharpton.
12 out of 13 Church TV 'shows' on Sunday.
Concise, accurate and stings like 'hell' will.
Well, it's okay, RICH PEOPLE LIKE PHAROAH AND PILATE, sometimes DO LEARN. but how would we Truly Know. Life issa stage, but Jesus DIDN'T Have to act. Some can and some can't. NEBECHANEZER, it says did repent...... and did Jesus scare Judas enough by what he said 😳. Establish Your Word to thy Servant, as that which :
PRODUCES REVERENCE

SOME Say it all started with Trailers for Sale or Rent, Tommy Dorsey, lost his Wife but never quit. John Wayne walked with
It is NO SECRET, What God Can Do, Stewart Hamblin, would maybe have not written that.... it could be you, .... to write a word or two anyone, LEE ANN WOMACK put a disc in a purple envelope and mailed it to ALAN JACKSON, Tommy Dorsey, wrote a few Hymns after that. But thanks, yes, yet A lot of people looked pretty bad, like us all, many times.
So relevent once again.
Honestly Kanye and Butch Hartman should listen to the lyrics Ray is singing lol
