Mr Rogers was a true class act, and a wonderfully generous gentleman. He gave many up and coming artists advice and phone calls that changed their careers, and he will be missed greatly.
Just heard he passed away today... so sad. Edit: he released this song in 1980, which means that he was only 41 (tops) in this video. Not so old, really.
So sad. Kenny actually just passed away last night. He was 81 years old. I grew up listening to this man. He was my mom's favorite country singer as well as being one of mine. You should really check out his songs "The Gambler" and "Islands in the Stream". The 2nd was a duet with Dolly Parton. Such an incredible voice. R.I.P Kenny.
Oh Billy why did you have to do this song, it was my mom's favorite song, she cried with it and for some reason I didn't listen to it for years... You made me cry... It is a great song... Thanks, it is a great memory and I loved to hear it once again and put it back in the memory box.
Kenny, like all the great vocalists, have the ability to make you believe every word they are singing in a beautifully written song. A true timeless classic
I have loved Kenny from way back! My adult children absolutely know every single word of his songs! Islands in the Stream He & Dolly is my all time favorite!
Just read the news, that Kenny Rogers passed away at the age of 81. He was at home in Georgia with his family. May he rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers with his family and friends. May all your memories comfort you at this time.
R.I.P. Kenny Rogers....we lost a genuine treasure last night. 😢 Thankfully we have videos such as this one to remember & enjoy his unmistakable voice & talent!
My Momma wasn't alive when Kenny was crooning these tunes, But I was! That was back in the day when men really knew how to put their feelings for their women on paper and it showed. God!, I miss those days. The way men feel toward women nowadays is just vulgar and a BIG turn off. Keep reacting to all the great music from back then, Billy and I'll keep watching.
Eloisa Pompa You’re right. What happened to the beautiful love songs men used to sing to their women back in the day instead of all this vulgar crap we have today. Even the young girls seem to have lost it.
I watched this video the other day....this morning i was listening to his songs on spotify ...and i was so shocked when he passed away this afternoon ..RIP to my all time favorite country singer....
Kenny Rogers is one of my favorites I have grown up listening to him with my mom. We finally got to see him in concert in 2018 for his farewell tour I surprised her with tickets for her birthday and it was one of the best days of our lives. My mom would joke before he passed that if he came along she would leave my dad in a heartbeat for him. And neither me or my dad would have blamed her one bit for that lol. Rest easy Kenny 💕
You Decorated My Life and She Believes In Me are the other two of his love ballads that were panty melters. Then there are his duets...*sigh* The man’s a true troubadour.
One of his best wasn't romantic at all, Kitt. Have you ever listened to Twenty Years Ago? That song, and video... Kenny Rogers really knew how to pull the emotion from you.
@@KKJ_author I don’t know if I’ve heard it, but I’ve loved almost all of his music. One of my all time faves is The Greatest which is not at all romantic.
Love your reaction to Kenny it's funny when you said that's probably someone's mom out there it made me think of how much of a fan my mom is of Kenny she played him all the time and still does.
Whoo man.. It rocks to see you keeping his songs alive... The best of the best.... He was a hottie.. Even as a 70 plus your old..... He is so missed...
I was born in 1967, so...old fart here. I wore a groove through this album when it came out. I am an old gay chick, but I listening to him in my teens almost converted me! Loved me some Kenny Rogers...thanks for the memories, Billy!
I grew up in Kenny Rogers I could watch him all day long I'm in love with his music and then love with him as a person you have to let you have to watch Dottie West Kenny Rogers when two fools collide you will see something special in that song also I am heartbroken over him passing away I've known Kenny Rogers since the day I was born and he's the best of the best and I love watching the reactions to all you guys because I grew up on him and you're just now seeing him and it amazes me night I love it that Kenny's probably enjoying this he was the best he was a country soul sensual Elvis Presley he was like Elvis but he's Elvis in his own way for how he sings he's got his own thing going on
This is the first slow song that my hubby who passed away in Oct. 2019, danced to on our first date just over 40 years ago. It takes me back like 1980 was just yesterday. Thank you for doing this song. RIP Kenny introduced me to my "Knight in shining armour"...
One of the best song ever written.
Crazy how a legend wrote it for another legend to sing. That's freaking crazy. Kenny was meant to sing this.
I'm glad Kenny sang it. Wow...what a voice!
It truly is
Straight baby-makin' music. RIP KR and thank you Lionel for writing a beautiful song.
R.I.P. Kenny Rogers...that sexy granddaddy with the gorgeous golden voice. They don't come along like that very often, and we just lost a legend.
But when they do come along, treasure the songs they give us.
I'm one of the Mumma's who was there screaming😂😂
😂😂😂
And you are still a hotty.
😁
I would have KILLED to be right there... He was hot as HELL.... I was about 12 when this show was on HBO....
Me too! He sanged the heck out of this song!
Your reaction made me smile! Kenny Rogers was the MAN back in the day.
R.I.P. Kenny. Many of us lived our childhood through you.
It's rare when somebody owns a Lionel Richie song so well. Perfection.
Preach
Kenny's music will live on forever. RIP.
Oh hell yeah.
Mr Rogers was a true class act, and a wonderfully generous gentleman. He gave many up and coming artists advice and phone calls that changed their careers, and he will be missed greatly.
One of the GREATEST performers ever, along with one of the best songs of all time
Just heard he passed away today... so sad.
Edit: he released this song in 1980, which means that he was only 41 (tops) in this video. Not so old, really.
"The sexy granddaddy voice." I'm dying. 🤣😂🤣
He wasn't that old here...was he? I think he started turning grey at a young age.
@@jessiem276 He was like 41-43 here.
Well, this was his 1980 tour. So he was 41.
He aint TRYING - he's DOING! The O.G. Silver Fox
RIP Kenny Rogers a true American legend 💜🇺🇸💜🇺🇸🎶

Kenny Rogers died today March 21, 2020 from Natural Causes. RIP Kenny, we will miss you ...
I disliked this comment because he's gone. 😭
he passed away march 20th dumbass
Oh Billy why did you have to do this song, it was my mom's favorite song, she cried with it and for some reason I didn't listen to it for years... You made me cry... It is a great song... Thanks, it is a great memory and I loved to hear it once again and put it back in the memory box.
Oh by the way I meant my memory box not that the song doesn't deserve new fans, it is just too painful still for me to hear it...
You're so right ma'am. It's an amazing song. May your mother rest in peace.
Have a nice day ma'am.
He had it going on here. Love everything he sang.
Billy you need to watch Kenny and Lionel do this together. Lionel tries to match his falsetto
I agree!!!! Lionel and Kenny had a relationship and chemistry like no other!!!!!
RIP Kenny. This is my favorite song he sings!
Kenny, like all the great vocalists, have the ability to make you believe every word they are singing in a beautifully written song. A true timeless classic
I have loved Kenny from way back! My adult children absolutely know every single word of his songs!
Islands in the Stream
He & Dolly is my all time favorite!
Billy, I was totally in love with Kenny....and I was 5!! I was sure I was going to marry him! 😉
Kenny Rogers has always had that gravelly voice. Check out when it was Kenny Rogers and The First Edition, Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town.
Just read the news, that Kenny Rogers passed away at the age of 81. He was at home in Georgia with his family. May he rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers with his family and friends. May all your memories comfort you at this time.
This performanceis 40 years old. It has truly stood the test of time.
Who’s here after the legend is gone?😥 just makes all of his songs hit a little different
This was my dads song for my mom! Boy do I miss my daddy every time I hear this song! Thank you for the memories
Great song. I remember my Mom and Dad playing Kenny Rogers all the time growing up. R. i.P Kenny Rogers you will be missed.
R.I.P. Kenny Rogers....we lost a genuine treasure last night. 😢 Thankfully we have videos such as this one to remember & enjoy his unmistakable voice & talent!
This made me cry... Rest in Peace Kenny Rogers. This song was sung at our wedding... memories
Kenny Rogers has so many beautiful songs, his voice is truly amazing.♥️
Through The Years will make you cry. He sings from the heart.
We just lost Kenny yesterday :(
RIP old man
Another country icon gone
Many babies came from that song! Alan Jackson Remember When
Kenny's voice is soft and smooth just like butter ❤
Two great artists have created something epic and beautiful
Rest in Heavenly peace 🙏🙏🙏. Thanks Kenny for all the beautiful music 🎶🎤💙
This song makes current R&B sound like Hip hip / Rap.
Classic, and wish slow songs can go back to this!!!!
Agree
Loved you...that reaction is priceless...loved THAT SONG....Kenny did it BEST..hi from Carmen in NORTH CAROLINA 🇺🇸👍🎻🎵🎺🎹
Kenny one of the greatest!!
Lol, wasnt my momma screaming ...it was me!!
Goosebumps always with this song
You can definitely hear Lionel Richie when he's singing this.
Exactly. It has the spirit, the rhyme and meter of Lionel RIchie and the persona and raspy voice of Kenny Rogers. Truly a great collaboration.
Lol him on this song is some “panty-droppin” vocals according to my mom
Kinda like Tom Jones in 60's-70's......LOL
Great reaction! I grew up listening to Kenny. Mom used to play his music on records. He’s amazing! 😉
His song Through The Years....is beautiful.
My Momma wasn't alive when Kenny was crooning these tunes, But I was! That was back in the day when men really knew how to put their feelings for their women on paper and it showed. God!, I miss those days. The way men feel toward women nowadays is just vulgar and a BIG turn off. Keep reacting to all the great music from back then, Billy and I'll keep watching.
Eloisa Pompa You’re right. What happened to the beautiful love songs men used to sing to their women back in the day instead of all this vulgar crap we have today. Even the young girls seem to have lost it.
This song can not be done better by anyone - PERIOD!
He had a great voice. So sad to hear of his passing.
I watched this video the other day....this morning i was listening to his songs on spotify ...and i was so shocked when he passed away this afternoon ..RIP to my all time favorite country singer....

You should react to Kenny Rogers “Coward of the County”
Pretty positive he has-
Yes!
He has.. th-cam.com/video/7iOApHaQeBY/w-d-xo.html
@@Gutslinger thanks for the link.
Billy I appreciate your ability to love not a good performance but a great performance.
Two LEGENDS made this powerful song happen;
Legendary songwriter; Lionel Richie
Legendary singer; Kenny Rogers.
The stunning singer, just beautiful. RIP Brother x
He died today the 20th. RIP Kenny Rogers. Legend. 💔😭😭😭
RIP Kenny Rogers!!!!
Fly High Sir!!!
This is one of my favorite songs from Kenny
I was lucky enough to see him in concert. I just love this song! Makes me cry everytime!
Men do not sing love songs like that any more. Now its all about hit it and leave. Sad. Bring back the love songs of the 70;s and 80;s.
Facts
And a little of the early 90s. Once the 2000s started, pop and the wanting of partying songs toxically influenced all of music.
Agreed. Need to bring this shit back as the hect big thing!
Tim Mcgraw... got lots of love songs
You Decorated My Life and She Believes In Me are the other two of his love ballads that were panty melters. Then there are his duets...*sigh* The man’s a true troubadour.

I just tagged you on FB with the song. He had a way of telling a story in a song, whether he wrote them or not. :)
I had just watched this reaction last night. And this morning woke up and saw that he had passed away.
I danced to this in my living room as a little kid. We had it on 8-track. Look it up.
One of the greatest singers!
It’s one of my fave of all time 😂😂🙏🙏😂🙏😂🙏😂🙏😂🙏😂
Love your reaction to Kenny it's funny when you said that's probably someone's mom out there it made me think of how much of a fan my mom is of Kenny she played him all the time and still does.
Kenny Rogers = one of the greatest EVER
Rest in heaven Mr. Kenny Rogers.
One of my absolute favorites!! I love all of his songs! That Voice!! 😻

i saw him sing this in concert in the 80s. He reminds me of my dad so I never has "those" feelings about his love songs but I love his other classics.
You hear the appreciation in his voice! 🎶💕
This was my parents wedding song back in 1985
Beautiful song from a time when music meant something.
