I've always understood it as Randy telling George that he looked up to him for inspiration when he (Randy) was getting started. And then George saying that he was skeptical of this new boy (Randy is from North Carolina) and the different style of music at the time. Then George was pleased to find out that Randy may be young, but he's still just a good ole country boy! Great reaction sir.
Yes I think Don kind of missed this song meaning :)
After George Jones passed away Randy Travis along with Joe Nichols record a song called "Tonight I'm Playing Possum" which is a tribute to George Jones , they reference some of his songs , its a nice tribute to George Jones .
Yes, George was talking about randy,🙂
Thanks Ed for the great request. Randy has a great country voice and mixed with George's how you can you go wrong. The song was written by Troy Seals and Mentor Williams and released in 1990 on both Randy's 'Heroes & Friends" album and George's 'Frends In High Places" album and reached #8 on the charts. As I hear it, it is a song about the connection between older and newer generation of country music. George and Randy take turns singing about the admiration they have for each others music. You asked about the line that mentions Carolina. Randy is from Marshville NC. Thanks for your reaction Don. We know you're a closet Uu of M fan.. haha
Thank you Jeff. Your sharing of your vast knowledge is always welcome. Loved your last line about Don.
@@montauked17 Glad you caught the pun. He said he found it in the closet so that makes him a closet fan?
They’re singing about each other.
Oh wow, they sure don't make them like this any more! One of my faves from the golden era of 90s Country! Thanks so much Montauk Ed for this brilliant request, so wonderful to hear these two again. They really did make a great duo. Thanks Don for the excellent reaction!
You’re welcome Terry. Other than a child’s laugh and the waves of the Atlantic Ocean crashing on my former home town shores of Montauk, the two most beautiful sounds to these old ears are a fiddle and a steel guitar. I truly do love country music.
Well done, thank you for doing this song. Yes it is a 10. Have you done Randy's song, I thought he walked on water?❤😂😊
A great tune and a 10 for sure. A later version has Jamey Johnson singing with Randy Travis. One of my favorites….
You are 100% accurate with your assessment Tom. George sings: We heard you were a fast train coming out of Caroline.(Randy was born in my adapted state of North Carolina in the town of Marshville.) George continues: We wondered what you were hauling’ when you rolled into town, it’s good to know there’s still a few country boys around. George specifically talking about Randy. To Don: Thanks for your kind comments about me in the beginning of this reaction. Thank you for your 10 rating as well. I think when any subscriber requests a song, they are hoping for a 10 rating. Realistically, we are all hoping for a 9 and above. Just a suggestion: No more 8.9’s. Round it up to a 9. It makes us feel so much better. 😊 I guess , in some way, it is a validation in our taste of country music songs.
@montauked You are spot on, yet again! As for the 8.9, maybe what I should do is stick with the 8.9 but put an ice cube down my shirt as punishment. 😂
I want to see that happen the next time you give out an 8.9 rating.😊
@@montauked17 Great song, Ed! It was a new one for me, but how could it possibly be bad with those two singing! Thank you! I didn't know Randy was from NC, but that (if possible) just makes me admire him more. So many songs by both are in my top 100 Country songs! Thanks again and have a great rest of your day!
I just figure if I think it's a 10 and Don thinks it's less, then he's JUST a reactor and obviously doesn't know anything about country music😅😅😅😅
@@PapaFixit Now that's an idea I can take hold of, Papa! 😂
Randy is singing about his he listen to Jones and Jone was singing about Randy coming from to Nashville from NC :) you took headphones off before the last line :)
@ThatJunkman I heard the final line while editing, and it was very uplifting and filled in some of the feel of the song.
George, was talking about randy coming out of Carolina he was from North Carolina, hey Don, I would like to request a song by George Jones and Alan Jackson, called "A GOOD YEAR FOR THE ROSE'S" hope you can give it a try. Thanks
They belong together.
Randy is from North Carolina
@warrenburlingame1172 The song makes more sense with that info.
I own this album and it's all pretty good. Heroes And Friends.
If you ever get around to it, play “The Gospel According To Jones”. It’s by Eric Lee Beddingfield.
always loved this album, probably my fav song on there is Randy and Vern Gosdin, The human race
You might try Jones singing with Melba Montgomery. He said she was a better duet partner than Tammy was. “I’d Jump the Mississippi” is a good bluegrass song.
Randy represents the new wave, non-traditional country that surged in the mid eightys. George of course the old guard. Its about the OG's wondering what this new noisy smoke show was really haulin and the neo traditionalist paying respect to the OGs. Its also about Randy and George...lol😅
Unfortunately George sinced passed away few years back and Randy barely plays 😢
Excellent song and duet by two of the best thanks Don for reacting very nice
