    I can still remember the first time I heard this song. I was about 8 years old and I was sick in bed. I lived with my grandparents at the time and my grandfather was a truck driver. He was a huge Kenny fan and he had just come in from a long haul on the road. I could hear my grandmother greeting him with a late supper in the kitchen. They were speaking quietly I suppose as not to wake me, and suddenly I heard this song come on so I tip toed outta bed and peaked into the kitchen and saw them dancing so sweetly. I just stood there watching them thinking it was probably the sweetest moment my young life had seen at that point 💗
    Now years later every time I hear this song, time stands still for me and I think back to that moment. My grandmother passed away in 2010. She was 80 years old and my grandfather passed in 2014 he was 84. They were married for 62 years and were the best of friends. Their love was what songs like this were written for 💗

    • @MrRondonmon

      This song was released in 1980 and Lionel Richie wrote AND produced it so they had to have met by that time. P.S. by the way, the Commodores had a song called Lady [you bring me up] so the name of this song was originally Baby, and when Kenny started talking to Lionel about his new Lady, Lionel, naturally reworked the song and called it Lady !!

    I saw Kenny Rogers in concert in the 1980’s. A friend of mine was the concert promoter who brought him in. I had front row seats and a backstage pass so I had the distinct pleasure of meeting the man and having a brief conversation with him. He was very personable, had a great sense of humour and was quite soft spoken. I couldn’t help but swoon just a little. It was one of many great concert memories in my life.

    In 1988 the Jamaica Jamaica resort at Runaway Bay had a musician in the Piano bar who knew the entire Kenny songbook, and assumed the guests, mostly brits and yanks, all knew it too! Several of us discovered the mutual joy of singing along, and returned each night. By night 3 we had 25 people crowded around the piano singing, and at the end of the week, we were 75 strong at least, packed into that bar crowed around the piano. Everyone knew a few lines of every song, and enough knew all the lines to carry the rest of us. In my many travels since I have never seen the likes of that experience. As busloads of new guests arrived for their week, they would line the walls to watch and listen. And they joined in.
    That last evening one of the waitresses-maybe 21 yrs old-asked him to play Amazing Grace. She sang a solo, deep, soulful, beautiful, rich, unforgettable. We all wanted to join in but there is no chorus to join in on, and we were all entranced! 32 years later whenever I sing or hear Amazing Grace, I think of her, and of that pianist in that piano bar in Jamaica, and those other guests who shared the joy of singing with us. What a week that was. I hope their lives have been blessed richly.

    Kenny played roles in a few movies. My favorite was six pack. He was a race car driver that wound up wirh 6 run away orphan kids that wanted to stay together. Just a riot. I saw him in concert years ago with Vince Gill and blind hit singer Ronnie Milsap. Amazing concert.

    Sushi, Kenny Rogers started out in '67, a band billed, "The First Edition", they had 3 chart songs ( 2 rock and roll, the third was more folk/countryish) "Ruby, don't take your love to town", written during the Vietnam conflict but was really about a WWII veteran that was wounded and impotent from that. I saw him one time-1980, at the annual "daddy of 'em all" rodeo, in Cheyenne Wyoming. he performed with a lady named Dottie West, the show was outside and delayed a few minutes only, by a rainstorm. When the storm had calmed considerably, they covered everything with plastic and performed for a couple hours. Great show, Kenny has many hits, listen to his rendition of "Mary did you know".

    My parents took me with them in 1982 instead of getting a sitter. I was 8 years old. Dolly Parton was in that concert as well. I still remember that, and loved the whole thing. They did the same thing with Neil Diamond a year later. I ended up taking them to see Neil Diamonds last tour, in the same place they took me to see him and Kenny.

    I took my wife to his concert in Tulsa Ok in the early 80's. At the time The Gambler was his latest hit. I listen to him in the 60's (Kenny Rogers and the 1st edition) He has some great songs that seem to be forgotten "Lucille" and "Ruby"

    I went to one of his last concerts ever, in the last year of his life, in Biloxi, Mississippi. It was outdoors in the evening in a field next to the beach along the ocean. You could tell he knew his end was coming up fast.
    It seemed like he was attending a concert by us rather than the other way around. What I mean is you could tell how wonderful it was for him to see and listen to several thousand fans cheering and singing along to his music. Most songs he had to sit because he couldn’t stand for very long and for the really high parts he wisely just let us hear them in our minds and memories rather than him screeching and ruining them.
    Between songs he expressed how grateful he was to have had such an awesome life, and the emotional high he was privileged to have experienced thousands of times in concerts over many decades all around the world. You could see him looking down at us spread across that field and tell he was also seeing in his mind the thousands of crowds just like ours that he had sung to for more than sixty years.

    Yeah I got to see him when he was the top country music singer. The stage was in the middle of the arena so he could play to four sides. Great show.

    Kenny takes me back to some good old days. Time went by slowly. Life wasn't easy but people handled it much better than they do now. My family was intact back then. Now grand parents are gone. Their kids = my parents are getting up there. I'll be the next wave. Crazy how your people fade away. People grow apart. But we have these songs. It helps us relive the times when we were all close and everyone was still alive. People are not gone if you keep their memories with you. Their legacy will love on. Pass their legacy down so these people never fade away.

    Joe Diffie - Home. It was his first radio hit...it gives me chills, makes me so homesick. His voice in this song is unbelievable. Another great loss. RIP.

    The first concert I ever went to was Kenny Rogers at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta. I was 10 or 11 years old and a band called Exhile opened for him. We were about 20 rows back from the stage.

    One of my wife and I's first concerts.we've been married for 36 years. 2 1/2 years ago she had a seizure that left her brain damaged and in a coma and now, a wheel chair. She went to the hospital and then straight into an assisted living facility. Our life changed forever in one night. I played this song for her the other day and she lit up. Since march 10th I have had to visit her outside her window and call her room phone. Music is something that makes her happy. Another live song was John Denver "Perhaps Love" ( another person that we saw live) I have a lot of time alone now and love your reaction videos. Stay positive and as far as your student loans go. Every Doctor has started off the same way. You will overcome and make a difference in someones life..I know this from personal experence. You are an amazing person :)

    Kenny Rogers was one of a kind. You saw how many women were melting listening to that song in the audience. I first listened to this song when I was about 6 years old, my Mom was a huge Kenny Rogers fan.

    I had followed Kenny's career starting in the late 1960's with Kenny Rogers and the First Edition. Followed him for decades and saw him in concert many times. Great singer and I think "Lady" is my favorite song. Always moves me. I collected dozens of his albums and CDs also. He's ONE OF A KIND ...for sure. Gonna miss him.

  • @Sunshinegal317
    @Sunshinegal317 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Omg! I can listen to Kenny Rogers sing Lady 100 times. The lyrics and his voice touch my heart so deeply each and every time I listen to it that I can’t help but cry. I love your reaction to this song. 💕

  • @georgephillips3625

    Lady was written by Lionel Richie. Kenny and Lionel sung it together and had fun with it. Kenny explains how he called Lionel and told him he needed a song for his new CD or album. They've been friends for decades.

    This song came out when I was dating the woman who became my wife. I used to sing it for her. She died from COVID last year and truly was the love of my life. She was my lady.

  • @robertbeckler5058

    Great story for you here. Yes I did see him in concert. Got stood up by a pretty young lady a few hours before concert so... I called my cousin and she went with me. So instead of sitting by a pretty lady and listening to him serenade her for me he got to serenaded my cousin for me damnit. Sometimes life just is not fair.

    When in kindergarten my teacher would only play Kenny Rogers songs during naptime. We memorized his songs of the era. I finally got to see him in person on his final farewell tour a couple years ago before he died. I was surprised what a good sense of humor he had. Clean, hilarious jokes in between his songs. He cracking jokes about his hobbling around up there after a double knee replacement operation. A true talent and a gentleman.

  • @randotastic

    if i'm not mistaken, he and Lionel co-wrote/produced this song together, but Kenny being Kenny...just told the world about this brilliant young man Lionel Richie of the Commodores and gave him full writing and production credit, to one of the greatest songs ever written and produced.class frickin' act, passing it on to the future. then came the decades and decades of hit songs by Lionel.
