Reaction to Glen Campbell song by the time i get to Phoenix.
The American guitarist and country music star,gave an amazing performance here and this could well be the greatest break up song.Its so sad.

Definitely “Galveston”! Check out “Wichita Lineman”, too.
All three of those are Jimmy Webb songs. He's something of a well kept secret, since his songs are virtually all hits for other artists. Jimmy and Glen Campbell had a particularly fruitful alliance...
For a song that will really hit you deep in the soul, check out “Wichita Lineman”, which was written by Jimmy Webb and sung by Glen Campbell. Campbell’s performance is so heart-rending, and the loneliness he conveys is so palpable. Others have recorded this song as well, but Glen Campbell’s version is the standard and he set the bar high.
I can't listen to Wichita Lineman without crying. Very wistful. Lush vocals.
@@kimmaedke2763 it has that effect on me, as well.
I am a lineman from the county, and I drive the main road
Don’t overlook this recommendation. As much as you love ‘Phoenix’, you’ll love ‘Witchita’ that much more.
Singers in the 60’s didn’t just sing the song ,they performed and inhabited the songs.There was an emotional investment.
It’s why we’re still listening to those same songs today
Glen Campbell and Jimmy Webb, one of the best singer and songwriter pairings in music history! And Glen's voice is smooth like honey!
Jimmy Webb and Glen Campbell are the greatest writer/muse relationship in all of art.
Glen is also an incredible guitarist, one of the fastest players. Wichita Lineman is great. Galveston another great choice. RIP Mr. Campbell
Jimmy Webb wrote this song and is one of the best songwriters ever
Exceptional quality of song writing....love the sadness and the magic of the imagination it leaves.,.
Glen was one of the finest guitar players ever !! He and Roy Clark were legends !!
Are*
Don't forget that voice. THAT VOICE.
Hints of a song's era. She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call. Probably from a "pay phone". She'll just hear that phone keep on ringin', off the wall...." Land lines in the home often had a phone mounted on the wall. Usually in the kitchen. These things virtually don't exist today.
In that sense, I'm reminded of Jim Croce's "Operator". Or the image in the mind's eye of that cowboy calling home in George Strait's "Amarillo By Morning".
What lovely writing. You ought to pen liner notes (of course those, too, are something of an artifact of a past age!). Yes, these songs, or at least those lyrical details, are frozen in time now...
I'm wondering if you mean George Strait's "I Can Still Make Cheyenne"? I get your point either way.
Glen Campbell was a legend. Such talent.Sadkey we lost him a couple years ago to alzheimers.His last song was heartbreaking
I got so excited when I saw that you were reacting to Glen Campbell. I have been such a huge fan since my teens and I am 65 yo now. He died of Alzheimers a few years ago but he allowed a film crew to film his final tour and the progression of the horrible disease. My mom died that way and it was heartbreaking. But his film brought so much attention to the disease and it was so brave of him. Please react to Wichita Lineman and Galveston. The songs are way too short but back then they had to be because AM radio wouldn't play them if they were longer. I loved when we moved the music to FM and put an end to time restrictions.
In 1967 when this song came out, my parents were going through a divorce. This song and another one ("Honey" by Bobby Goldsboro) both sent my mom over the edge, and into sobs and weeping, every time they came on the radio. Very sad.
Goldsboro's "With Pen in Hand"
Still cry when I hear Honey
Jimmy Webb wrote so many good songs. Check his duet with Linda Rondstat titled “All I Know” it’s among the most beautiful songs ever written 😎
Ah, I'm not the only one suggesting Harri listen to that gem...good. Glorious, and of course ineffably sad, too, as it was Linda's last recording...Art Garfunkel recorded "All I Know" beautifully too, but the Webb/Ronstadt duet is truly stunning.
Remember when we had phones on the wall?! 😂 I guess I am revealing my age! Great song. Glen Campbell is also considered to be one of the “guitar greats”! He’s amazing 🌺✌️
The magic of the 2 minute song. It makes you want to hear it over and over!
My Very Favorite of Glen's Songs! And You Are SO Right, Harri,....Way Too Short!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I LOVE Glen Campbell’s voice too! The song is beautiful. ❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glen was a member of the famous Wrecking Crew and played on over 600 songs. Sometimes he would record at 3 different studios in 1 day
Jimmy Webb, a songwriter from Oklahoma, wrote this song and many others that were hit songs for Glen Campbell. The person in the song is traveling east from California to Oklahoma down I-40. I am a native Oklahoman and have made that trip myself.
Campbell had his own variety show that ran from 1969 to 1972. He was also a member of the "Wrecking Crew" backup studio band in L.A. One of the main reasons that songs like this from the 60s were so short was to be able to accommodate the short time frames for song playing on the AM radio stations. There were just too many great songs to hear!
that is called the Nashville Sound in the 60s and early 70s Country was produced like rock and classical and lots of artists in country got "overproduced" so to speak and that lead to the Outlaw Country scene who rebeled against the "Nashville Sound" Btw you need to do Gentle on my mind, Galveston, Houston and Witchita Lineman
yes loved ray price for the good times
It has a cool and smooth sound like the chrome and linoleum of a late-60s ranch-style house somewhere in air-conditioned suburbia.
Glen's "Try a Little Kindness" is outstanding...
The phone (only landlines back then) kept on ringing because he left her. He’s gone.
Glen Campbell was a master at his craft and the production of this song was out of this world!
RIP dear Glen, your music is being discovered by younger generations now & totally appreciated by them!
Thanks Harri this was special 💎
PS I do love Isaac Hayes recording of the song as well ☮️
Glen Campbell was an amazing singer and guitarist. I believe Frank Sinatra said that this was probably the most beautiful song he had heard. This song evokes memories of a bygone era❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The man had a talent to deliver a song in a way that you felt like you were a part of the story.
A real storyteller, wasn't he!
Check out his final video/song. "I'm Not Gonna Miss You." a real heartbreaker from the Documentary of his last tour before Alzheimer's finally got him. It is a very touching Documentary and the song will hit your right in the Feels.
I love your respectful, thoughtful reactions. "By the time I get to Phoenix" was covered by many. Glen Campbell's version is one of my favorites. If you love this song you must listen to Isaac Hayes' cover (the studio version from the "Hot Buttered Soul" album). It's unique, all 18 minutes.
I believe at one point he was with the Beach Boys as a stand in. He was a studio player for many famous singers and was a master guitar player.
He was member of the wrecking crew. There is a doc on them on Prime fascinating
Self taught never learned to read music
I saw Glen in in person in 1964 replacing Brian Wilson playing bass and singing backup vocals with the Beach Boys. That show was at the Indian State Fair Colliseum. Imagine Glen Campbell singing backup vocals and playing bass!!!! They knew Glen from the Wreckinng Crew.
Glen Campbell's humble beginnings and his amazing connection with Jimmy Webb, became the soundtrack for a generation of music lovers who appreciated good orchestration and heartfelt lyrics. Thanks Harri, you always get it right on!
You haven't heard a sad break up song until you've heard Diary by Bread. Walk On By was written by Bacharach & David.
Jim Webb wrote many great songs for Glen and Johnny Rivers. Another great break up song written by Jim is Do What You Gotta Do.
Beautiful reaction. Beautiful voice. His guitar skills are amazing too.
Let's give credit to the songwriter, Jimmy Webb.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. Beautiful and soul wretching song from deep down 😇😇😇. 👌👌. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧. RIP 😇😇😇
Another vote for Wichita Lineman, one of the best.
Carry On!
You might want to go back and listen to the lyrcis and you'll understand why the phone is ringing off the wall. The lyrics are so touching and Glen's voice....Wow!!
Not only a great voice but one of the best guitar players ever. The first concert I ever took my kids to was Glen Campbell. He opened their eyes about talent and what it looked like.
You are probably thinking of Burt Bacharach? Thats a real orchestra. No synch-like fake strings.....Love it!
"Gentle On My Mind!" One of his best!
Written by the extraordinary John Hartford.
That was my Mom's favorite. I think of her when I hear it. She loved Glen Campbell.
Wichita Lineman is Excellent song, too😍😍😍 SAD, TOO😪😪😪
beautiful loved it then and now!
jimmy webb is a genius
Nope! EVA CASSIDY "Autumn Leaves" is the sadest breakup song..
😀🙏😭😭😭
I think you mean HE STOPPED LOVING HER TODAY BY GEORGE JONES.
This song came out when I was going through a breakup. Still gives me bittersweet memories. 😢❤️
Thank you for reacting to Glen Campbell… he was one of my favorite singers of all time! I remember my dad bringing home Glen’s Gentle On My Mind album when I was a little girl and playing it for the family… I became a fan for life! One of my favorite songs Glen Campbell sang was a song called “I’ll Paint You a Song” released in 1970. It was for a movie called “Norwood” that he starred in. The movie wasn’t great, but the song was and is beautiful! I love your channel! 😊
One of my biggest regrets is that I never got to see mr Campbell sing live
I love these days and his acting and theme song for true grit
When he passed it was the ending of an era 😥
That's so cool that you 'got' this song! It's one song that is bound to get your emotions to arise! It's always had such a deep, penetrating effect on me. It brings out the heartbreaking sorrow of a relationship, as well as the highs of intimacy.
She screwed Him over. That's why he's leaving Her.
Your thinking of Burt Bacharach, he and Dionne Warwick made some of the most beautiful music ever, it melts my soul
Glen Campbell was a superb guitarist, as well. He was a session guitarist, part of the "Wrecking Crew," and played guitar on songs by the Beach Boys, Bobby Darin, Frank Sinatra, Ricky Nelson, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, the Monkees...the list goes on. Jimmy Webb wrote lots of hit songs, my favorite being "Wichita Lineman," also sung by Glen Campbell. You should listen to that...it's such a sad, haunting song.
Since you’re in country mode, please check out a VIDEO of Charley Pride, “kiss an angel good morning” is a good one. If you don’t know him, you will be very surprised!!! 😃
I couldn't find another reaction to Glen Campbell. But I am wondering if the song you were remembering was "He Stopped Loving Her Today." If so, that was actually by George Jones. ;-)
Glen was very talented. Love his stuff. Wichita Lineman is my favorite.
The composer you’re trying to think of is Burt Bacharach, who often wrote with Hal David. But this song was written by the amazing Jimmy Webb. (Google his list of compositions.). There’s a ton of Glen Campbell music you could do. Before going solo, he was often an LA session musician, playing with the Wrecking Crew. For a while, after Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys wanted to stop traveling with the group, Glen Campbell toured as a “member” of the Beach Boys. One of the truly great pop music musicians of the 20th century.
You might want to listen to him do 'Dreams of the Everyday Housewife' and Johnny Rivers do 'Poor Side of Town' 👍👍
That voice is like velveti listen to his concert version when he was much older.. Regularly
Great song sung by a Great Talent. I have to admit that I like the way Eddy Arnold sings this song. It seems every song Eddy Arnold sings is better than the person who first sang it first - I'm sure it made other people a little upset. Eddy Arnold just had an incredible tone - rich and pure! Love GC thought!
Diamonds in my ears. Love that expression!!!!!
CAMPBELL THE BEST THATS BEEN, THERES A GUY WHO SOUNDS JUST LIKE HIM ADRIAN PARIS IS HIS NAME, FROM THE UK.
No less an authority than FRANK SINATRA HIMSELF once called this "the greatest torch song ever" and he was not far wrong, imo.
Glen was one of the busiest session guitarists in Los Angeles in the ‘60s. Played with The Wrecking Crew and led to playing with The Beach Boys on tour. Jimmy Webb wrote this and some other hits for him and other artists for Johnny Rivers record label.
Jimmy Webb wrote McArthur Park for Richard Harris (Waylon Jennings & Donna Summer did hit covers later on). Check out The 5th Dimension for more Webb hits.
i sent this to my girl friend a few years ago. i said it's not a hint. she called me in tears shortly after......
Wichita Lineman has one of the most wonderful lines of all songs..."I need you more than want you and I want you for all time"
I so agree with you Harri this song is way to short but thats probably one of the things that makes it so great as they always say in show business, "Always Leave The Wanting More". 🤠 Please check out Witchita Lineman so good also.
I usually don't listen to country music, but Glen Campbell was an exception. Loved his songs.
a little bit of willie nelson funny how time slips away is nice
You're right, the song is way too short.
Hi Harri, I have listened to this song many many times over the years but I never really listen to what it is about. I mean all the lyrics are there to tell me but when he said she call him at lunch but the phone just keeps on ringinh, I burst into tears! I could feel her confusion and anxiety and the knowledge that something is gone (to me anyway)!
You can thank Jimmy Webb for those lyrics.
Was lucky enough to meet him at his house several times in the 90's. His wife was a very kind person too.
Alice Cooper said Glen Campbell was the best guitar player he ever knew and he cried when he learned of Glens Alzheimer's diagnosis...they were neighbors and the best of friends...RIP Glen
Campbell told the story many times how he changed the ending to change keys, didn't like how it was written. Composer admitted Campbell was right. won two Grammys
I agree, try listening to Galveston.
Interesting fact John Wayne starred in the original film True Grit
Co starring Kim Darby and Glen Campbell as le Beouf the Texan.
Glen wasn't the best at acting but because he wasn't renouned for acting the role of the texan suited him.
Glen also sung the theme song True Grit.
More Glenn Campbell pleeeeeze - "Gentle on my Mind" (LIVE version) and "Wichita Lineman."
If you like this break-up song, try “A Thousand Miles From Nowhere” by Dwight Yokam.
OMG YES!!!!
Everybody talks about Glenn’s prowess on guitar but damn what a voice !!!
About the phone thing, it wouldn't be like today. His phone is ringing "off the wall" but at the house he left from. Also, it's a wall phone, which you don't see today. It's timing his drive from Phoenix. She's getting up, then eating breakfast, going to work and at each one, he's getting to another city. Great song, great voice, this man was talented to no end. Couldn't read music, but his ability let him play by ear. Amazing huh?
This is a beautiful "crossover" song. The beautiful backgrounds are original.
True Grit, Galveston, Wichita Lineman, Everyday Housewife, Country Boy
Glen is one of the greatest session guitarists of all time! You probably heard his playing and didn't even know it, lol!
Bobby Goldsboro.......Honey: Michael Murphy .......Wildfire
The strings, orchestral arrangement and production on this song is just stunning. This is also one of very few songs without a chorus.
You might like Meryl Haggard. He had a unique voice and did spend time in prison. My favorite is “mamma tried”. His song about death row is called “sing me back home”
Great classics! I'm enjoying your reactions. Glen Campbell was part of a group, The Wrecking Crew, studio musicians that backed the Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra and an entire catalog of popular artists. He had a super hit with "Gentle on My Mind", a great tune. See if yuh ou can find him doing a video with John Hartford, an incredible banjo, fiddle, mandolin player. Hartford was also a Mississippi River pilot. Glen was often not given the credit he deserves for his guitar playing! He became good friends with of all people Alice Cooper, a make up clad rocker. The two of them played golf all the time, and Alice noticed Glen's memory fading. Long story short, Glen developed Alzheimer's, and died a few years back...I'm sure someone will have told you by now.
Yes----Wichita Lineman and Dreams of the Everyday Housewife!!
One of dad's favorites, and oddly enough one of his best friends could have passed as Glen's twin
I absolutely LOVE "Galveston"! That 60s feel, beautiful!
Glen was sessions musician...part of the wreckin crew...a consumate artist...Ty brotha
Love to hear Glen Campbell, love his guitaring and voice, so many good songs to choose from.
Harri Please check Glens song Rhine stone Cowboy From from 1975. Its one of the best FEEL GOOD SONGS EVEEEEER Enjoy Love the 70s ,,
Rhinestone Cowboy .. Glen Campbell is a national treasure. You should of heard him on am radio...
also check out GENTLE ON MY MIND and RHINESTONE COWBOY
Oh my I haven't heard this in forever. Love. So glad your listening to Glenn Campbell
We really don't know the whole story.. but I have always loved this song.. and Glen Campbell. We don't know the kind of person she was.. maybe she was a cheater.. who knows.. But his voice sounds like he really didn't want to go.. but he had reached the end .. nothing else to do.
Burt Baccarah....funny you mentioned "icing on the cake"....see Jimmy Webb written song by Richard Harris - "MacArthur's Park" - coincidence?
Check out the Isaac Hayes version.....17 or 18 minutes of pure heartbreak
Great reaction song. Thanks. You might like Issac Hayes' version from Hot Buttered Soul.
Listening to you is like diamonds in my ears!!
Glen Campbell was also one of the best guitar players ever !!
Not my genre but love this man's voice Harri, and of course a fine musician. In the same genre my recommendation for this time is a little known band called LONESTAR with "AMAZED " I know you will dig it, keep safe kid.
Lonestar, "little known"? Not to fans of "new country" they aren't! Another band in that vein that's very much worth a listen is Diamond Rio. New-country harmony sound. Wonderful stuff.
You were thinking of George Jones's He Stopped Loving Her Today. Really, messes with your credibility.
once sang this song around the world. By the time i make NYC.....
The "band" was The Wrecking Crew"--Studio musicians in L.A. who performed on virtually EVERY hit record in the 60's.
