At my Mom's funeral the preacher was talking about how proud Mom was of her children and she really didn't have a favorite. Me, my sister and our older brother all three said at the same time, oh yes she did as we were pointing to our baby brother. Baby brother just smiled cause he knew it was true. A light funny moment at that time. This song makes me cry big tears!
This is one of the few country songs where the loved one passes before they can say goodbye. It makes it hit so much harder that it goes against the norm like that.
Great Reaction to a Powerful Song....... It hits harder for me cause I'm the "Baby of 5 Boys" who lives 1200 miles away and mom is 88 Years Young..... Blake's "Break-Out Song" was a song called "Austin".......
I believe everyone who lost their mommy can relate to this. When you are the baby of the family . You may watch your whole siblings and parents fade away.
The first time I heard this was February 06, 2003. I remember the date because it was the day my grandfather passed away. I was his favorite grandchild (my grandma's also). He was taken off of life support and the family was around him. Doctors said he would pass in about 2 hours, he held on for 23 hours. My husband and I left to go outside to have a cigarette. This song came on and at the verse where he didn't make it in time for his mama, I went immediately up to my grandpa's room. When I got up to his room, he took his final few breaths and passed on.
This is so sad and beautiful at the same time. I been there. My mom died and I was not able to be there. I was her baby. I was the youngest of three. I had my two brothers. one was 15 years older than me. and the other 10 years older than me. She wanted a little girl so bad, and she finally got her (me) at the age of 40 years old. So, I was really her baby. This song hit me very hard. Love your reactions! ♥
As long as I have been playing music and singing I had never heard this song. It got to me as I did the same thing years ago as my dad called to tell me your grandpa is in the hospital as not doing well, get here fast. I was late as it was 50 miles from home to him. He was my rock. I lived with him and grandma, on there farm for five years through high school and after. Yep, young men do cry as well.
Now you should watch the official video of Blake's song "Some Beach," which is also one he did a few years back. No tears in that one, but definitely a smile or two. If you just let the title roll around on your tongue a couple of times, you can probably figure out where he's going with this one.
This song hits hard. I lost my mom on Christmas day 20 years ago this year and the heartbreak is as fresh as the day it happened. And yes, I am the baby boy in the family with 2 older sisters. I it's true, I did get away with a heck of a lot more than they ever did.
Blake has some great songs. Some funny songs and some serious ones. “Ol Red”, “Austin” “Boys Round Here”, “Honey Bee”, “I’ll name the dogs”, “Some Beach”, “The More I Drink”, “She Wouldn’t Be Gone” & “Kiss my Country Ass “ are some great ones. I know I’m missing some of his hits. 4:09 try having a mother that was the baby in her family and a younger sibling. My little brother got spoiled so much.
Even though my mom is still me. This is the song she picked for me and her to dance to when she and my dad renewed their vows. Edit I am the youngest of three and I did get by with more. My brother and sister use to have me go ask to do something because they knew if they asked they would get a NO but if I asked I would get a YEAH HAVE FUN lol. And I once said I’m a grown man blah blah blah and she said those exact words no matter how old you are you can be 80 you’ll always be my baby.
Phil and Sam, there is a very important Shelton song you must react to! A teenage Blake lost his big brother to a car accident. While married to country artist, Miranda Lambert, he wrote “Over You” about his brother. Powerful! Knowing it would be too difficult to perform…Miranda recorded. The song and the video is a must to witness. Please react to: Miranda Lambert - Over You.
A good one from early in his career is Ol' Red. God's Country is an excellent song and showcases his awesome voice. On another note... Those dimples. 😁😍
I saw Blake in concert last in Columbus Ohio. He played this song for the first time in a long time. He said he removed from the setlist because it was too sad.
Blakes older brother died in a car accident in blakes teens, he and Miranda Lambert wrote the song Over you to memorialize him,perhaps yall could react to that song!
"Ol' Red" is a classic. The video is like a compressed movie. Great story telling. Young Blake, looking fine. Still does, but wow. Guess around the same time period as this video.
You can also see that hair in his his song "Goodbye Time". Some people don't know that it was a Conway Twitty cover. I think that song is under-appreciated nowadays. Don't know why people don't mention it when recommending early Blake hits.
I know just how you feel, Sam. I have trouble with leaky eyes syndrome when I hear this song too. lol Blake Shelton has some real tear jerkers. But he also has some really upbeat tunes also. However, I thought I'd suggest another female artist to give a listen, if interested. "Christina Aguilera - Beautiful (Official HD Video)" (by the channel: Christina Aguilera) --This song is from her fourth studio album called "Stripped" released in 2002. It was written and produced by Linda Perry.
This is a great song. For a fun one from his early days, check out the video for 'Ol' red'. For mature Blake, check out one of his duets with his wife Gwen Stefani, from 'No Doubt'. My fav is 'Nobody but you' He also has other fun ones like 'Boy's round here' (also a fun video). He also has a great song written by Hardy, called 'God's Country'.
Not a true story, Blake's mom is still alive and well! His older brother died when Blake was 14 in a car accident. He also has 1 sister. Blake IS the Baby of the family though!!❤
Home (with Michael Buble), God’s Country (amazing, different!), Some Beach (funny), She has a way with words (funny and clever), I Ole Red (you’ll love the storytelling), and many more. His mom is still alive and apparently he has a wonderful stepdad - he said he was emulating him, taking his role of bonus dad to Geen Stefani’s boys very seriously.
It's not about his Mom, at least the death part, since his mother is still alive today and co-produces some holiday movies with him. :) Not sure how much of it is autobiographical (or if he even wrote it). Maybe someone else knows.
I always cry like a baby when I hear this too. God's Country is a good one to go next by him. He is fantastic.
I second the request for Blake Shelton’s God Country. Not a fan of country music normally but I like Blake Shelton.
It's not based on Blake's life. His mother is alive and he only had 1 brother who passed away at age 14, Blake was 24. It's just a good song.
At my Mom's funeral the preacher was talking about how proud Mom was of her children and she really didn't have a favorite.

Karen; yalls family sounds like mine, except my youngest is a daughter 😂( spoiled too)❤
@@deborahlewis656, sounds like you have a wonderful family also!! Very Blessed!!!

Dammit! Even watching a reaction video, I can't hear this song without bawling like a baby, myself. Great video, as usual. Do more country, please.
i am a huge blake fan and never heard this amazing beautiful song. Thank you...
THIS is my FAVORITE song of Blake's ever!!❤

He was on the Voice,but he left last year. He now has a show called "Barmageddon" I think you would get a kick out of his song "Boys 'round here"

Im the baby of three girls. I lost my middle sister in 2011 at age 51, my Mom in 2012, and my oldest sister in 2013 at age 55. I am 62 this year.
Very sorry for your losses.... 🙏🙏🙏
My first time hearing this. WOW!
I've not listened to Blake's music before, other than his last song. I enjoyed his voice and the song very much. Great reaction
BARS & BARBELLS, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!
such a heartfelt song! Great reaction!

That song was done way more than a "few years back". 😆
@@Gutslinger Yes, "a few years back" just like the one they just reacted to was "a few years back." That's all I meant.
This song is hard to hear. I did not get to say goodbye. 😢
"Ol' Red" is another great one from earlier in his career. And "God's Country" is one of his more current bangers
Blake did not write this song, but he performs it as if he did.
Wonderful lyrics. New for me. Thanks!
This song hits hard. I lost my mom on Christmas day 20 years ago this year and the heartbreak is as fresh as the day it happened. And yes, I am the baby boy in the family with 2 older sisters. I it's true, I did get away with a heck of a lot more than they ever did.

Please react to: Miranda Lambert - Over You.
BARS & BARBELLS, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!
You must react to “Some Beach” and “Ol’ Red”, be careful to react only to the original videos to each. You’ll love these songs!
written by others, but authentically performed.
Fire reaction guys 🔥
Sad.
All the best.
Cheers.
Check out Ol’ Red, Some Beach, or Doing What She Likes. I’d also highly recommend Turnin’ Me On, live at Henson Studios.
This song always hits me hard, I'm the baby and even though my mom has passed away, I'll always be her baby.😢

This makes me cry because my husband is in hospital for 9th time within 6 months

I believe Blake's mother is still alive because they wrote some Christmas movies for Hallmark the last few years.
I thought I could watch it without squalling, I can't...
He was 27 when he made this. He's 47 now, so he looks different.
Need to do Austin.
Austin is his best song
Home (with Michael Buble), God’s Country (amazing, different!), Some Beach (funny), She has a way with words (funny and clever), I Ole Red (you’ll love the storytelling), and many more.
His mom is still alive and apparently he has a wonderful stepdad - he said he was emulating him, taking his role of bonus dad to Geen Stefani’s boys very seriously.
Please react to his songs Some Beach and Ol' Red. Bangers
It's not about his Mom, at least the death part, since his mother is still alive today and co-produces some holiday movies with him. :) Not sure how much of it is autobiographical (or if he even wrote it). Maybe someone else knows.
Lost my Mom two weeks ago. Wow 😢
🥰
I love this song. Thank you. He has one from his early years called Some Beach , it’s funny.
So sorry to hear this!
Austin
check out Austin by blake
Blake lost his brother when he was young.
Love this. But Blake in real life only had one brother and he lost him in a car accident
