I'd like to nominate this song as the theme for the 2020s.
Yes

They will be much worse !! China 🇨🇳 is entering the Whitehouse
@@salrusso1233 You got it!!
Yep and 2021, and 2022...as long as Joe's in the WH...
No one's done it better than Crystal!
This has to be one of the prettiest versions I've heard. Makes you think the times WILL get better!
i luv this song! from Malaysia
Such a fitting song for right now.
beautiful song ,beautiful voice
classic forever
STUNNING WOMAN WHO CHOSE THE SONGS THAT FIT HER .GREAT VOICE.
We have Allen Reynolds to thank for that. He's her producer for these albums.
We sincerely need this sound and beautiful soul during this overwhelming COVID-19 era.
Was listening to an old Coast To Coast AM show with Art Bell from the mid 90s. He loved him some Crystal Gayle.
This song is timeless.
Midnight in the desert she wrote that song especially for art bell
Cody jinks brings new life to this song for sure. Thankfully there's people like Cody making real County Music .
great song, this is my favorite by crystal
gayle
Me and and my hubby fell in love listening to crystal gayle and we were only in our young 20's were now both in our 40's and it's never left us the special meaning her songs have for us....brilliant...the best...;-)
Blessed to see her at the Old Eagle Mountain casino how many years ago she was so amazing
Shes still beautiful as ever !
Art Bell used this song as the intro for his late night radio talk program. RIP Art; we all miss you!
No he didnt the song he used was midnight in the desert
@cbrouma8014 As a second bumper music song which came later when Bell developed that program.
But Waiting for the Times to Get Better came first which is how I originally noticed Art Bell's late night talk program to begin with.
Love this song and crystal is a real beauty can't imagine any man ever wanting to hurt this beautiful lady those blue eyes hypnotize me
@caliokieboi I met her family when I was a teen. When I was totally in love with her. My first time on stage I sang in a competition to a standing only crowd I was only 15 and scared to death..I sang Crystal's music........in memory of my grandpa William Keller. and well I placed 16th out of 40 bands etc...and I will never forget that I sang on the same stage as Crystal Gayle, my first time in front of an audience. It was in Johnny's in Custer, MI. God Love You Crystal.
She had such a beautifull voice and was easy on,the eyes as well.
I never actually knew her but she seemed.too Be a down to earth. Kind of a person.
one of my favorite songs ever by the very beautiful Ms Gayle
the mystique in her voice sends chills
she's just too pretty to sing this good...excellent work Miss Gayle!
One of my favorite songs while I was growing up. I still have this on cassette, hard to believe it's over 30 years old.
She had a Beutifull voice. I grew up hear her sing. On the radio,,
As a young boy,,,
I too grew up listening to her. Wow it seems it gets better I'm referring to her voice. Didn't realize how awesome her music really is. Will listen to her till I die.
Luv Crystal Gayle and this song =) thanx 4 sharing...
This is April 2020 and Covid 19 is terrible. Thousands have died and over half a million people have suffered from it. This song hits home. Thank you.
I had a cassette tape of hers when I was still at school, and played it till it stretched. I loved this song back then, and now in my forties, I have rediscovered it from an adult point of view, and think it's even more fantastic. She has an amazing, clear, sweet voice, and I also hadn't realised just how beautiful she was, and is! My goodness, what a talent. I'm going to go and look for some more of her music and rekindle my love of her music. Superb.
I had this song in my mind and just had to hear it. Crystal is one of worlds greatest voices in my thinking. She shines with beauty and grace.
THis song takes me back to the wonderful 80s..LOve her voice...A true country classic....
It's definitely the song for these times!
i have listened to CG since I was a young boy. I am now 35yo and have since branched off to other genres of music. But I always come back around to CG. She takes me back to very fond childhood memories. She is one of country musics greats and this song is one of her best.
I've been waiting for a long time and still am.
Can't get better then this!
Crystal...is the best!
Really amazing song!,from one of the most beautiful woman in the world!
I bought this LP back in the day and still have it....Its still in perfect condition and has a centerfold of Crystal that is amazing.She is still the babe and sounds as good now as she did back in the day.While their a lot of great singers in the business she is still has it and after all these years has that jaw dropping I can't believe beauty that can put woman half her age to shame....God has been good to her.
One of my favourite songs since I was very young!!!! Thanks for posting!!!
Within the widest definitions of country music, now and then an iconic, unforgettable timeless song emerges that invades the senses, soothes the mind, and refreshes the spirit in all of us in an ultimate country tradition. It ticks all the boxes. It embraces sadness and elation in equal measure. (I suppose depending on where you are in your life right now!) This song is number one on my desert island discs list. Ray
A #1 hit for Crystal Gayle on the Country & Western charts. It was the 433rd #1 C&W song of the Rock Era. It also hit #3 on the Adult Contemporary charts. In Canada, it hit #1 on the C&W charts and #4 on the AC charts. I saw Crystal Gayle on May 25, 1987 (Memorial Day) at the Busch Gardens Amusement Park in Williamsburg, VA. She opened for The Charlie Daniels Band.
I had a Crystal Gayle record (vinyl) as a child and it was one of my favourites. When I Dream is the best she ever did but this comes pretty high on the list.
My favorite live song by her seen her 15 times in concert got back stage and met her once use to live next door to someone who drove her tour bus here in Gainesville Texas
This is one artist that truly makes me miss my mom. Miss you everyday mom!
Voice of an angel 👍🏼.
This is my theme song lol. I was in a very unwanted relationship. That period of my life is thankfully over. But this song conveys everything I was feeling before I got out. It really speaks to me
I love this song and Crystal Gayle 🎵🎶🎵
GREAT song, great interpretation by Ms. Gayle.
DL Weston it’s not an interpretation. It’s her song. She recorded it first. Everything else is an interpretation
@@richardblum8542 Well, thanks ... but, sorry, no thanks. From Wikipedia: '"Ready for the Times to Get Better" is a song written by Allen Reynolds, and recorded by American country music artist Crystal Gayle...' But, whatever. Love her version.
DL Weston correct on songwriter. She did record it first. That’s what I said. That’s what the “record” reveals.
@@richardblum8542 What I'd say regarding "interpretation" is that any performance of a piece of music, no matter who did it or when it was performed (for the first time or in the last 5 minutes) is an "interpretation". Again: whatever. Love her version of it.
Love her voice in minor keys she’s beautiful and brilliant
Totally agree, love her songs in minor keys like this.
Heard this on Art Bell a few times. Now that I’ve found the full song and hear the title and lyrics I’m in tears saying out loud to myself this is brilliant. The song she did for Art, Midnight in the Desert is amazing too. Dude Crystal Gayle is awesome.
@@marcusharmon8577 Just heard on Heather Wade,show The Kingdom of Nye. Also she linked to the great late Art Bell. Great song..and Midnight in the Desert.
SAME!! RIP ART❤️❤️❤️
@@manley09 Art was the best wish he was still here ❤️
I heard this song on Art Bell a lot too ... however the first time I ever heard it was probably in my mom's 1972 Impala as she drove us to school sometime around 1978ish. Lots of memories from both.
One of Art Bells theme songs. Oh ya.
Still love it! Crystal......clear!
Always LOVED this song. Never heard this version. Thanks for sharing.
This is the original version.
Crystal is awesome. I met her for a few minutes after a wonderful performance at the NC State fair. She shook hands with me and she had the tiniest hands!
I have always Loved This Woman !!!
Gat Dam that's good!
This is my life right now going through cancer and lots of depression .......I'm so ready for times to get btr
Just saw your post. How r u doing now ? Battling cancer too. Like this song. U hang in there friend
hey i hope you are better now. God bless you.
Angtels to you, Miss Jackie!
How are you doing, today, Jackie Morrison?
Hope you are still here. Love from Florida.
i love the sound and feel of this song❤
The first country mix album i bought had this song, i loved it ever since the first time i heard it
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS OF CRYSTAL GAYLE SONGS
WOW...her voice is really pretty. One things I do not like about a lot of popular singers now a days is their voice..it is not "pretty" or full of soul...it does not envoke a deeper response. This voice....it makes you want to listen, it has heart to it. Really nice.
haunting and beautiful
good God I love this, so glad the lovers of this song,
What a voice ...
What a woman !!!!
I've got to tell you I've been rackin' my brain
Hopin' to find a way out
I've had enough of this continual rain
Changes are comin', no doubt
It's been a too long time
With no peace of mind
And I'm ready for the times
To get better
You seem to want from me what I cannot give
I feel so lonesome at times
I have a dream that I wish I could live
It's burnin' holes in my mind
It's been a too…
A pretty song very much appreciated
Love this track ....
Love Crystal Gayle :)
Ok
Ive hadenuff of this continualrain...
I remember bein a little boy and Mama would have a cassette of Crystal Gale and on the cover she was standing on a ship and all that beautiful hair was hanging over the side of the ship. I thought it was so beautiful and her blue eyes. But the tape got left in the middle of the seat and we went in Price-Lo to buy grocery's and it got melted by the sun. That was back in the 80s. I wish I could find them CDs or the cassetes or even an 8track will do, I've got all 3 players and they work.
Aye
So Beautiful song! 🎧
Thanks for uploading!
I Always loved this song, Thank You!
Johnny Lonewolf
Me too! (´▽｀)ノ♪
heard this on old C2CAM shows from the mid-90s.... boy, that was 12 years ago. Good tune
12 years ago? Try 25!
yeaaaaah... my math has passed....
@@michaeldombrowski7828 Shhh ... I won't tell anyone ... it seems like just a few months ago to me to be honest.
Late nights with Art Bell brought me here...he often played this as his show ended! Good memories!
Me too!
Me three!
Red Spaniard Me four!
Yep. Art Bell played it in the late 1990's. I love this song.
I still listen to his old shows on TuneIn and hear this song regularly.
Happy new year 2023🍾🎉🎊🎉🍾
Cool song, lovely voice.
No one songs em like Crystal!
Beautiful song and certainly THE title for the times: it’s been a too long time with no peace of mind and I’m ready for the times to get better. Maybe beginning November 3.
Most favorite song ever!
Pure class and totally awesome.
and i am sooooo ready for the times to get better!!!
Absolutely super !
merories!! my sister brought me here last night!!
If I could take a time machine back to Jan 6, 2007 when this was published the times would indeed be better for me.
Music like this should be re-awaken on radio. So much feeling and emotions. We so need to get honest with ourselves. bilbo2shire
I Used to Hear Art Bell use this Song For Bumper Music, Its very Haunting to hear in the middle of the night.
She Is another Angel of Music.
I really need to have a time machine 😢
I remember when this charted ... was in 5th grade at the time.
I love this.
soundtrack from the 1982 Canada concert video DVD, the best!
this version is not from that DVD
haunting...
I know, right? Was especially haunting driving alone at night, down a dusty road back then.
Bought Marshall Chapman's album in the 70s....the writer ....still holds up
I been dealing with alcoholism and loneliss for years and I am ready for the times to get better, Im tired.
Sending you strength and positive vibes.
You never have be alone again.
I hope you are in a better place. Hugs from Kentucky 💜
I am with you friend. Im tired, Im tired of this damned world, that has lost its way. Im tired of the GOD DAMNED alcohol and cigarettes. I am weary , very.. I have 6 kids, 14 grandkids, 1 daughter in the grave, 1 ex wife in the grave. BOTH of my parents are deceased, as are my grand parents. I just pray for Christ to return, and either send me to Heaven or Hell, tis HIS decision. Take me home, country roads, to the place, I belong!

Beautiful Song ...
Beautiful Singer ....
Beautiful Woman .... :)
what a talent!
I have this on vinyl ....
love it love it ...
Great song. Now I remember where I got the strumming idea from for one of my songs called " I''LL Find A New Love" I would play this song alot. Everysong on this Album of heres is good. Back in those days, usually only one or two of the songs on an album were any good.
So Beautiful.
I'm up here talking to my friend, 1:00 in the morning and just flicking through the channels, when all of a sudden they flash this beautiful woman, across the screen. And an old familiarity finally came back to me. One i had forgotten since 1982. I said to myself, Its Crystal Gayle! Wow wat a beatidul woman I immediately searrched for her on yt. I must say that she is devistatingly beautiful. Hauntingly rather. And can som1 tell me, Did she sing the closing song for c2c AM/ArtBell "Midnight in
wonderful.
this is great
She is great!
Deadly!
love this song reminds me of movie hateful eight
Great voice. I couldn't believe it when they replaced her with Annette. But I'm glad that they've got Floor Jensen on board now, she blows them both out of the water. I hope they play this song live when I see them in concert.
My favs!
TRUE ❤
