My father passed away when I was 15, in 1979. I remember this song coming on in the car on the way to the cemetery. My mom was crying and I asked her if I should change the station and she wouldn’t let me. This song is so beautiful and it will always make me think of my mom and dad. ❤
Hey, that was so cool that you shared about me getting to go up and sing with Kenny. He smelled REALLY REALLY good too. And when he kissed my hand, his beard was sooooo soft. I’m so glad you guys are getting to enjoy his music. My hubby and I love music and we really enjoy watching you react to the music of our lives.
@@marybrown6128 I was shaking so badly, I remember feeling so stunned I was just super focused on him. Like I forgot there was a stadium of people there too. It was insane.
Kenny is awesome. My mom loved him so much. I grew up listening to all his songs. Whenever I hear a Kenny song I can still hear my mom singing along. ❤🥰
I just came home from a funeral for a former colleague of mine (a young doctor I used to work with) who passed away at only 42 from cancer. I was feeling down and decided I needed a little Jay and Amber to perk things up. This was such a nice song to be reacting to because even though it's obviously meant as a love song, I feel so much of it applied to the personality of my colleague. They were playing songs before the service started and this would have been so perfect. That she "decorated" our lives. RIP Candria Elyse Krywko, O.D.
I'm sorry for your loss. It's tough, and many people, I've found, don't understand why the bond with a colleague can be so strong. I lost a gentleman I co-taught with, and the loss rippled through my teaching for years. I never met anyone I clicked with in his department with whom to restart the program.
This is such a great song. Two of my favorites from Kenny were duets that he had with Kim Carnes (Don't fall in love with a dreamer), and Sheena Easton (We got tonight). I think you would really enjoy these.
I can’t help watching your beautiful wife and the emotions on her face , I’m a very emotional 81 year old who has seen life but I can read all the emotions on her face as the different lyrics of each song passes over her , it’s wonderful to see a person of such emotions , your a very lucky man xx
I got to see Kenny in concert and he sounds just as good live as he does on his albums. Thinking about that concert reminds me of his opening artist. Her name is Crystal Gayle and probably one of her most popular songs was "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue". Maybe you could put her on your female Friday list. :)
Greetings from sunny London, UK. That is good to hear, Kenny may not be as popular here as in USA but really appreciated by those who appreciated his lovely voice. Kenny RIP.
I love Lady, but this song gets me into my feels, paints a beautiful picture, love 💗 it! Oh and the vocal arrangement is lovely and the subtle bass line was awesome
My wife made a video to this song for me, showing pictures of myself through the years. I can honestly say that it meant more to me than anything else I have ever received or been given. Lovely lyrics just appreciating you for being you…can we ask for anything more?
Back in the late 60s Kenny Rogers played in the band The First Edition. Check out 'Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)' or 'Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town.'
Memories of skating, roller and ice, with teen girls from school. Imagining one of them might be that magic woman but being to shy to try. Eventually I found her, but tunes from this era are what guided me to her.
Great Kenny Rodgers is a performance with The First Edition : Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In). Very 60's Psychedelic feel. The best version is the video that is 3:18 long.
He has such a warm voice to me. Reading thru the comments I see that many of us grew up listening to Kenny Rogers because our mommas. Brings back so many memories. ❤
It saddens me that a lot of the artists I grew up listening to have passed away in the last 10yrs. We all have to die at some point I just never pictured them not being around in my lifetime even though some are older than me. It leaves a certain emptiness like losing a loved one.
I know how you feel with the loss of artists, as so many has passed away within the last twenty plus years for me that I'd grown up with. Most of the true legends, and greats of Country music are gone now. Modern Country music doesn't care about about long term artists, mainly catering to what appeals to the twelve to early mid twenty something crowd.
Ahh yes ... Kenny Rogers .. no one else serenades the same. Hey Amber .. you know he was an actor too. He filmed his movie "Six Pack" here in Georgia. Me, my 2 siblings & my uncle were in the movie as xtras at the racetrack. Mr. Rogers was a very nice & polite man. "Six Pack" isn't one of his best movies but still not bad. Two other movies y'all may wanna check out too are "The Gambler" and "Coward of the County". Thnx y'all .. RIP MR ROGERS .. U R MISSED🙏🏼❣️☮️🙂
Enjoyed this so much! I love seeing how Amber shows that Kenny Rogers will keep making new generations of women swoon for years to come, If you want to hear a love song, it is hard to find anyone better than Kenny Rogers. His catalog is rich and deep, just like his voice. You two are a blessing and a source of hope for all us old folks. Keep discovering great music from every era and genre: it is out there.
I want to thank you two. I’m in my sixties and I loved a lot of music. I lost a lot in my life. I lost love and passion. By seeing you two together listening to music that made my love when I was younger makes a fire for life come back. Thank you for your videos.
Amber! Your expression and body language at 1:13 - 1:16 spoke VOLUMES! This romantic song describes how the singer's life was bland, empty and bereft of color or flavor and we are to think of him pitifully. He thanks her because she changed his life to being full of color, flovor and life in the fullest. We should all be so fortunate.
As a change of pace, Rogers teamed up with a few artist you wouldn't expect him to create a gem such as "You're My Love". Musicians were Robbie Buchanan (piano & keys), Abraham Laboriel (bass), Carlos Vega (drums) Michael Landau (guitars) and on harmony vocals, El DeBarge. The song is pop smoothness and uplifting! GREAT REACTION!
my suggestions ..... 1.Alannah Myles - Black Velvet , 2. Trooper - Raise A Little Hell, 3. HARDY - wait in the truck (feat. Lainey Wilson) (CMA Awards 2022 Live Performance) , 4.Nickelback - Rockstar , 5. April Wine - Sign Of The Gypsy Queen 6. Nickelback - How You Remind Me , 7. Chilliwack - My Girl , 8. Trooper - We're Here For A Good Time (Not A Long Time) , 9 Hozier - Take Me To Church
Kenny Rogers has one of those voices that you just never get tired of and he has so many great songs, I need to go back and see what ones you've played and what ones you all need to play
The 70's had some great love songs. I was in elementary school then but all the popular acts made the rounds of the numerous variety shows that were on TV back then so I got to see them perform.
OK I will try this again. People we have to get these two to react to Red Sovine. One of the greatest story tellers in country music. With songs like "Teddy Bear" , "Phantom 309" , "Daddy's Girl". If any of you don't know this artist you owe it to yourself to give him a listen. Start with Teddy Bear. You will understand why I am actually desperate for them to react to this song.
My kindergarten teacher would only play Kenny Rogers songs during nap time. So we memorized all his songs of the era. Finally got to see him live on his final tour across the US before he passed on.
Hope you both decide to go down the Kenny Rogers and the First Edition rabbit hole. Alot of heavy rocking tunes that will surprise you like : "Love Woman" his heaviest rock song . "Somethings Burning" "Just dropped In." ( To see what condition my condition was in) 💪
You guys really need to check out some 1960' Kenny Rogers and the First Edition!! Just Dropped In, Reuben James, Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town. To hear and see beautiful flute music, check out Elvis's American Trilogy from his Aloha from Hawaii concert! It's quite an epic Elvis performance!!
Kenny was king, a legend, there are so many country singers I am sure you would enjoy. Don Gibson, Boxcar Willie, Blake Shelton and Don Williams. then we have the women, Billy Jo Spears, Miranda Lamber and Carrie Underwood....the list goes on, old and new country. But, definitely a couple you should listen to, The Grand Tour by George Jones and 20 Miles to Juarez by Bob Wayne. Saying all that, there is so much music out there I am sure you could never repeat anyone and never be unimpressed. Thank y'all for everything, the two of you are an absolute pleasure to listen to and bring into my home. ❤
Hi, Jason and Amber! Thank you guys for reacting to this beautiful song, one of my favorites of Kenny Rogers. The next one I suggest by KR is the song "You and I", with Barry Gibb on backing vocals, simply amazing.
I just heard the best song for y'all to ever cover and I think it would be a song both of y'all would just love. It's a bluegrass song by one of the best bluegrass singers ever, Ricky Skaggs and to make even more awesome, he's singing it with Barry Gibb at the Grand Ole Opry!! The video is titled When the Roses Bloom Again - Barry Gibb & Ricky Skaggs. It's got over 2 mil views I could rewatch it over and over.
My father passed away when I was 15, in 1979. I remember this song coming on in the car on the way to the cemetery. My mom was crying and I asked her if I should change the station and she wouldn’t let me. This song is so beautiful and it will always make me think of my mom and dad. ❤
Oh myyyyy gosh. Girl I am so sorry. I can feel your pain that day. I send " a healing hug."
OOXX,. Warm hug your way from PA
😢
So the fun part is seeing Amber speak from the heart, and Jay buying into styles of music of all types. The best reaction show on youtube.
Don’t fall in love with a dreamer. Another great by Kenny!
Hey, that was so cool that you shared about me getting to go up and sing with Kenny. He smelled REALLY REALLY good too. And when he kissed my hand, his beard was sooooo soft. I’m so glad you guys are getting to enjoy his music.

What a lucky lady!! ❤️
@@marybrown6128 I was shaking so badly, I remember feeling so stunned I was just super focused on him. Like I forgot there was a stadium of people there too. It was insane.
@@Jenn-il2bj I probably would have passed out! Lol
@@marybrown6128 I just kept thinking “is this really happening?”
Hey Jen! All I can say is, wow!
Kenny is awesome. My mom loved him so much. I grew up listening to all his songs. Whenever I hear a Kenny song I can still hear my mom singing along. ❤🥰
SUCH AN AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL SONG
Saw him in Chattanooga!! Awesome performance! “Ruby don’t take your love to Town” is my favorite!🤘🔥
at that time.. Reuban James

@@bjdefilippo447 Thank you 🙏🏻 I’m sorry for your loss as well. Sounded like a great teacher!

Another great Kenny Rogers song is Love Will Turn You Around.
So I know you guys are Kenny fans, so I am going to recommend a couple of great Kenny songs: "She Believes in Me" and "Buy Me a Rose"
I've seen this song recommended so much, but have not heard it till now! And OMG, its beautiful. 🎼🎶❤
I got to see Kenny in concert and he sounds just as good live as he does on his albums. Thinking about that concert reminds me of his opening artist. Her name is Crystal Gayle and probably one of her most popular songs was "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue". Maybe you could put her on your female Friday list. :)
I love Crystal Gayle. She did a wonderful duet with Eddie Rabbitt, "Just You and I."
Crystal is Loretta Lynn's sister
You have to check out the duet he did with Sheena Easton, "We've Got Tonight".
Kenny sings from the heart.
You just can't go wrong with Kenny Rogers. I love all his music ✌❤🎶
You guys are ready for “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town!” Kenny Rogers and the First Edition.
In this song his voice is like a warm crackling fire on a cold rainy night.
Brings back a lot of memories as a kid in the backseat in the 70's. What great artists and memories👍🍻
me too
FACTS!!!
Kenny, Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond for sure in the backseat! Didn’t appreciate it at the time.☺️
# backseat crew!
Kenny Rogers just has one of those voices that makes you fall in love with a song.
This is my song for my daughter. Thru the years was my father daughter dance at my wedding.
Would love to see you react to one of his later hits, “The Greatest”
Such a wonderful message and a great way to look at life.
She Believes In Me is another of his many great songs!
Kenny is actually my 4th cousin. I've just turned 50 so I really never knew him but some of my other older cousins did. He was a true talent.
Greetings from sunny London, UK. That is good to hear, Kenny may not be as popular here as in USA but really appreciated by those who appreciated his lovely voice. Kenny RIP.
I love how you kept it eyes closed and just took it in
Brother now u get it ❤
Go back to the beginning "Kenny Rogers and The First Edition - Ruby Don't take Your Love to Town" His first hit .before he went solo.
Makes me think of my father, we always listened to Kenny Rogers! Kenny’s song ,Lucille, really brings back the memories!
I love Lady, but this song gets me into my feels, paints a beautiful picture, love 💗 it! Oh and the vocal arrangement is lovely and the subtle bass line was awesome
My wife made a video to this song for me, showing pictures of myself through the years. I can honestly say that it meant more to me than anything else I have ever received or been given. Lovely lyrics just appreciating you for being you…can we ask for anything more?
I actually nearly picked this song for my wedding dance 31 years ago. Beautiful song by Kenny ❤
Back in the late 60s Kenny Rogers played in the band The First Edition. Check out 'Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)' or 'Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town.'
Yes! I love his old ones.
Memories of skating, roller and ice, with teen girls from school. Imagining one of them might be that magic woman but being to shy to try. Eventually I found her, but tunes from this era are what guided me to her.
You guys are having a banner day for picking amazing songs today!! This one is top 3 Kenny for me.
A slightly upbeat Kenny Rogers song is Buried Treasures and Blaze of Glory
Great Kenny Rodgers is a performance with The First Edition : Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In). Very 60's Psychedelic feel. The best version is the video that is 3:18 long.
Oh this is a beautiful song! Kenny never disappoints! Great reaction!
Kenny Rogers is my absolute favorite artist ever!!! Fell in love with him when I was in 4th grade! Saw him in concert twice. Ahh…he was amazing!
"Love Bubble" I like that term Amber
Oooh, she was grooving to it so much, and then he paused it as it was building! The body language! Loved it!
Guys if you haven’t yet, you need to hear Kenny Rogers’ “Love Will Turn You Around”
He has such a warm voice to me. Reading thru the comments I see that many of us grew up listening to Kenny Rogers because our mommas. Brings back so many memories. ❤
I always loved “Through the years”
My favorite Kenny Rogers song❤
Love Kenny, he's just amazing. RIP Kenny.
It saddens me that a lot of the artists I grew up listening to have passed away in the last 10yrs. We all have to die at some point I just never pictured them not being around in my lifetime even though some are older than me. It leaves a certain emptiness like losing a loved one.

You guys gotta review Kenny Rogers' song Reuben James sometime.
A beautifully written song. Kenny could emote a feeling that just hits the heart. RIP Kenny!
Sir Jay and Lady Amber this is a great selection, and I as always enjoy your reactions 🎶👊🏾👍🏾
Omg this was my wedding song in 1981!!!!¡😊
Kenny started his career in the 60s with a group called The First Edition. Most famous song is "Just dropped in".
You should listen this!
Ahh yes ... Kenny Rogers .. no one else serenades the same. Hey Amber .. you know he was an actor too. He filmed his movie "Six Pack" here in Georgia. Me, my 2 siblings & my uncle were in the movie as xtras at the racetrack. Mr. Rogers was a very nice & polite man. "Six Pack" isn't one of his best movies but still not bad.

Remember this song as if it was yesterday, best music of our era!!
Kenny Rogers was a legend, and I can't think of any song from him that I don't like.
Y'all responded to a Kenny Rogers song a while back called She Believes in Me. Try one similar in message to that. BETH by KISS! Awesome song!
One of my favs by Kenny w/ "She Believes in Me."
My mom loved Kenny Rodgers and The Bee Gees. My mom passed away 2005. When i hear him i think about my mom. Kinda get teary eyed.
This song was one of my mother's favorites. Kenny Rogers made some truly wonderful music beyond his brilliant country ballads.
RIP Kenny Rogers! This was one of my favorite songs recorded by him.
Enjoyed this so much! I love seeing how Amber shows that Kenny Rogers will keep making new generations of women swoon for years to come, If you want to hear a love song, it is hard to find anyone better than Kenny Rogers.

He has amazing songs. Bye me a rose. I can't unlove you. And the last ten years are awesome song
I'm watching this with tears in my eyes wishing I had someone in my life to decorate it!!
I’m so glad you guys got around to this song. It reminds me of my dad, growing up, Kenny got played a lot!
Kenny is wonderful I grow up loving his music I’m 50 and miss his music
Love Kenny. These songs create a space where the world is left behind for a minute.
Oh this is one of his best!!! Thanks guys!! ❤
If you love this song from Kenny, listen to Charlie Rich - The Most Beautiful Girl circa 1973.
I want to thank you two. I’m in my sixties and I loved a lot of music. I lost a lot in my life. I lost love and passion. By seeing you two together listening to music that made my love when I was younger makes a fire for life come back. Thank you for your videos.
Sooo glad you finally did this one!!! Amazing song!!!!
He was a true superstar. Love his voice.
I’ve always loved his music. I had the pleasure of meeting Kenny on two occasions. He was so kind!
Amber! Your expression and body language at 1:13 - 1:16 spoke VOLUMES! This romantic song describes how the singer's life was bland, empty and bereft of color or flavor and we are to think of him pitifully. He thanks her because she changed his life to being full of color, flovor and life in the fullest. We should all be so fortunate.
This song reminds me of my mom and dad they loved this song. Hopefully they have a front seat to his heavenly show. 😔
I been searching this song for months and now I find it in you great channel guys...!!!
One of my top favourite Kenny ballads. Could you please do Love Will Turn You Around next please?
This is maybe my 23rd favourite Kenny song. I'd recommend She Believes In Me, 20 Years Ago and The Greatest.
Kenny's so dreamy. Thank you for the lovely serenade today! 😊❤
“Love Bubbles” 😂 That is a great phrase! Gonna use that one !🎉🎉🎉
Yall should check out some early Kenny when he was in The 1st Edition songs like Ruby, What Condition My Condition is in
Ruby! ❤
ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS OF ALL TIME
Loved Kenny Rogers, beautiful song, one of so many…RIP ♥️🌹Thank you for playing this song! 👍💙💖🌸🌸

You should do some old school Kenny... "Just Dropped In(to what condition my condition was in)"
Hope you both decide to go down the Kenny Rogers and the First Edition rabbit hole. Alot of heavy rocking tunes that will surprise you like : "Love Woman" his heaviest rock song . "Somethings Burning" "Just dropped In." ( To see what condition my condition was in) 💪

I wouldn't put Blake, Miranda or Carrie on the same level of Kenny Rogers or Don Williams. Those two (Kenny and Don) are definitely legends.
Hi, Jason and Amber! Thank you guys for reacting to this beautiful song, one of my favorites of Kenny Rogers. The next one I suggest by KR is the song "You and I", with Barry Gibb on backing vocals, simply amazing.
Absolutely beautiful!
One of my favorite country songs.... My husband passed away about 20 months ago and this so reminds me of him.
Kenny Rodgers a legend fo sho
I saw Kenny at our New York State fair in concert. He used to throw frisbees out into the audience. He was awesome.
My Dad was a big #KR fan (RIP)... So I enjoy these songs, in honor of my father. Thanks guys...
