"You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun." Every red-blooded country boy who hears that lyric gets just a little chill running down his spine, because he knows a little sister like that. Pretty song, brutal lyrics, cool reactions.

Vicki Lawrence's original gets my vote for best version, It was written by her then husband Bobby Russell, specifically for Vicki and went to #1, while Reba's version topped at #12

The is actually a cover. The original version was done 19 years earlier by Vicki Lawrence (who played the titular character in Mama's Family).

Her duet with Vince Gill "The Heart Won't Lie" is beautiful.

If you like the storytelling of Reba, then a must is “Does He Love You “ with Linda Davis

Vicky Lawrance of Ma'am's Family and Carol Burnett fame also did this song and does a great job...

This is a hit by Vicki Lawrence. My first time actually hearing it by Reba.

This and 'Fancy' are my favorite Reba songs, but she has several that still pack a punch. "Is there Life Out There" and "Does He Love You" are up there, but "His Name Was John" is a serious gut punch.

Whoever’s in New England is another great storytelling song by Reba

She is the consummate female storyteller, like a female Kenny Rogers. Reba also has some great duets. If you see him/if you see her with brooks and dunn; Because of you with Kelly Clarkson, Does He Love You with Linda Davis. Also Vicki Lawrence, an actress on a show called Mama's Family, wrote and recorded this song this is a cover.

I grew up with Vicki Lawrence version in 1973, i was 14 years old.

The original singer who sing that song was Vicki Lawrence who is from the Carol Burnett show and Mama's Family. It was written by Her husband Bobby Russell

Reba does this just fine as always but this will always be a Vicki Lawrence tune for me.

Jay & Amber, for female Friday: Jackie DeShannon - "Put a Little Love in Your Heart" or "What the World Needs Now Is Love"!! She’s one of the early singer-songwriters. She co-wrote Put a Little Love in Your Heart. She wrote the music for her original “Bette Davis Eyes”, words by Donna Weiss. Kim Carnes cover of Bette Davis Eyes was a worldwide hit/record of the year, w/a very different arrangement.

First Country concert I ever attended was Reba McEntire and Brooks and Dunn opened for her. Was an outstanding concert.

This was written by Bobby Russell, who at the time was married to Vickie Lawrence who first recorded and it became a Billboard #1 hit in 1973. Reba did a good job with this cover, but you should check out the original too!!

The Song was originally recorded by Vicki Lawrence! it was written by her (then) husband (Bobby Russel) who didn't like it. Vicki is Predominantly known as an Actress/Comedian on "The Carol Burnett show" and "Mama's Family"... This was her only Big Song hit. For an "Attitude" Song from Reba, I think you can't go wrong with "Take it Back"... SAUCY!

Vicky Lawrence took her original version of The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia to #1 on the pop charts in the early 1970's while she was a regular on The Carol Burnett Show. She was presented the gold record award on the show but nobody told her in advance! She got the song done in one take! She later went on to reprise her role as Mama on the syndicated TV show called Mama's Family!

The Heart Won't Lie, Does He Love You, I Think His Name Was John, Is There Life Out There. Reba is fantastic.

YES! Do the original by Vicki Lawrence! Reba McEntire is amazing but the original by Vicki Lawrence was always so much more haunting to me. This song wouldn't even exist if Vicki hadn't been so obsessed with it. I believe her husband at the time was the one who actually wrote it but didn't think it would get any traction and so never intended to produce it. Vicki actually only sang the vocals because they couldn't find someone to sing it. I believe they thought it would offend people in the south but it actually became a HUGE hit! Reba's cover just doesn't pack the punch for me that Vicki's original does.

Reba has a really rich catalog. You’d really like “Is There Life Out There”, “Does He Love You”, and “The Heart Won’t Lie” for similar storytelling songs. She’s got some real tearjerkers too. Her work spans the decades and is worth a deep dive. She’s also INCREDIBLE live! See her in concert if you get the chance. She puts on a killer show and sounds phenomenal, even after such a long career. She has really taken care of her voice.

Listen to Reba's "The Greatest Man I Never Knew". Not sure if it's about her real experience with her father or not but it's a tearjerker.

Vicki Lawrence crushed this song in the early 1970s along with her amazing performances on "The Carrol Burnett Show"

Reba one of the best female singers ever love her she has a ton of hits

This is a remake. Vickey Lawrence, who got her start and was still on the Carol Burnett show, when this song became a hit. My mother liked this song. The 1970s was the decade of the novelty story song. Like Herper Vally PTA, Dark Lady, One Tin Soldier, Ode To Billy Joe, and just about every Kenny Rogers song.

Love the Vicki Lawrence original, grew up on that, but wow, beautiful vocals by Reba! Stunning!!!! Thanks!

Vicky Lawrence did it just a little bit better but they are both very, very good! Always loved this song. ✌🇨🇦♥️

Reba had so many good solo songs that it is hard to choose. She had a couple of great duets that come to mind. Vince Gill, "The Heart Won't Lie" and with Kelly Clarkson on her song " Because Of You".

Whoever's in New England is a good one by Reba.

Actually Vicki Lawrence sang this song first. Yes the same Vicki Lawrence from The Carol Burnett Show and Mama’s Family

Full credit to Vicki Lawrence and her husband for the original which we all loved, but vocally, Reba blows this one away.

I LOVE storytelling songs. This is one of the best. Goosebumps every time.

I remember as a kid watching the Carol Burnett show waiting for Vicki to sing this song. She would do it a few times a year.

Vicki Lawrence of The Carol Burnett Show hits a Grand Slam with this song.

Whoever's in New England and Does He Love You are two excellent ones from Miss Reba...a must

The current queen of Country! My favorite all time female country artist! One of my favorites!

Her song You Lie is great

This is Vicki Lawrence's song. Always will be.

Okay. Here is the thing. I love Reba. I loved her way back when she was a singer. Now even her music videos are all about her acting in the videos. This was a cover of a song originally sung by Vicki Lawrence and was written by Vickie's husband. Fancy was also a cover, originally by Bobbi Gentry who also wrote it. I think you guys watched her Ode to Billy Joe video. I would love to see Reba shed the actor mask and the Vegas nightclub show stuff and do a concert of real country music again. She can do that, if only she would. Still love ya Reba!!!! Love the Rob Squad Fam too.

"Tremors" would make a great movie reaction. Reba McEntire's first acting role and she killed it in her role.

The Vicky Lawrence version guys, the original interpreter.

Always loved this song...the twist in the story just gives you goosebumps. I think Vicky and Reba both did a great job. Perfect beat

One thing about Reba is her videos are always on the next level. It's on level with her story telling voice. Her concerts are amazing as well. She has an amazing catalog but her duets are amazing!!

"The heart won't lie" Reba with Vince Gill the song and video is an epic cinematic drama that could be a movie

My personal favorite Reba song is "You Lie," but I think you will also like "The Greatest Man I Never Knew" as well. There are so many great Reba songs!

You'll absolutely love "HE GETS THAT FROM ME" and my favorite of hers (at least one of them!) has always been "WHOEVER'S IN NEW ENGLAND"

"Little sister don't miss when she aims her gun." Classic, under-appreciated line.

You gotta love Reba! Love all her music.✌❤🎶

still prefer the Vicki Lawrence original

Reba is a great vocal talent, a savvy businesswoman, and a warm heart who nonetheless tolerates no stable gravy. Plus, she's never been hard on the eyes.

Reba owns this cover! Thanks for another great reaction!

"Does He Love You?" With Linda Davis.

Reba may be from Oklahoma... but she's singing a song with Georgia in the title! 😁one of the great country singers in the genre!

Really recommend the original version sung by Vicki Lawrence. That's the one to do!

I love both versions. Rebas voice is stunning.❤

I love her song “consider me gone”

I'm not the biggest fan of modern country music, but I love the older country music best. Reba McEntire is definitely one of my favorite ladies! I've always loved her voice. Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Patsy Kline, Barbara Mandrell, Reba McEntire. This is my country music!

Reba is the BEST storyteller - and this is one of her very BEST songs. Glad you've discovered it. I think you've already done this one - but Is There Life Out There is also one of my fave videos and songs - and even has a cameo by Huey Lewis. She alos does a FANTASTIC duet with Vince Gill called The Heart Won't Lie. You'll both love it.

Another wonderful story-telling song and great video by Reba is "Is There Life Out There?"

"Does He love you" and "She thinks his name was John" are two more great stories by Reba.

Great song! I love both versions of it. Her songs Whoever's In New England, You Lie, and her duet with Kelly Clarkson Because Of You, are all great!

Its great that ya'll did this song but too bad you didnt react to the original first by Vicki Lawrence 😢 same with "Fancy" the original was by Bobby Gentry 😢 I love this channel but they always do the wrong versions first. Research first would do wonders ☺

Man finally controlled his jerky head dances😂

I love, love, love Reba.

Jay & Amber try "Whoever's In New England" by Reba McEntire

Reba is excellent, but you two really should have listened to the original first. BTW; Hollywood did make a movies based on this song. It stars Dennis Quaid, Kristy McNichol, and Mark Hamill. It was released in 1981; with Tanya Tucker recorded a different version for the film's soundtrack and new lyrics related to the plot of the film were written. The movie made $14 million; on a $7.5 million budget, but wasn't considered a blockbuster movie.

"What do you say" "I'll Be'' and "Is there life out there": Reba at her best with super videos!

So good... Reba... Wow... You can't beat reba

Y'all have to doThe Heart Don't Lie with Reba and Vince Gill. His angels voice and hers are amazing together.

Gotta give Vickie her creds

Reba is such a story teller! Love her! "Does He Love You" & "He Gets That From Me" are great songs with deep stories!!

This song was written by Bobby Russell, another HIT song he wrote was "HONEY" sung by Bobby Goldsboro *** great song of love and devotion ( have tissues ready! ) 📌

My favorite country artist and song.. Reba 🥰 Definitely get you some more reba, you should react to Does he love you, I'd there life out there, he lied, tell me why have I heard from you, whoever is new England, the greats man I never new, he gets it from me, take it back to God, ALL REBA..

Been waiting on this one!!

A few Reba songs I love (I love them all!): "Does He Love You ...?: "Is There Life Out there?" "His Name was John" "Till You Love Me"' "You Lie" "I'm a Survivor"

And now I just want to cuddle up on the couch with a nice cup of coffee and work my way through my Mama's Family, The Complete Series DVDs. 🤗 If you know, you know. 😉

Another great story and video is ‘Is There Life Out There’ with Hutu Lewis in the video, and also ‘Does He Love You’, a duet with Linda Davis. Both are fantastic

Vicki Lawrence’s husband, Bobby Russell, wrote this for Vicky & it was a #1 hit. I much prefer Vicky’s version.

Always enjoyed listening to Reba she always has some good stories to tell in her songs...great reaction

Reba's song "Just Like Them Horses" is a song she wrote to commemorate her dad.

There is a Reba/Dolly duet you would love "Does He Love You"

Never heard Reba's version before but no surprise she does it justice. BTW, who makes a music video and decides it's a good idea to put spoken lines on top of the lyrics being sung??

Reba and Linda Davis- Does He Love You is another great song.

written in 1972 by songwriter Bobby Russell and first recorded by his then wife, singer, comedian, and actress Vicki Lawrence.

This is a cover... You really need to do some real Reba songs... "Whoever's In New England", "The Great Divide", "Only In My Mind", just to name a few

She, dolly, and Loretta are absolutely the 3 queens of country. Prove me wrong

A brother's love is a brother's love. When I 1st heard this song in the 90s, I liked it and thought Reba originally sang it. Till my Mom told me it came out in 1973 and was a song by Vicki Lawrence from Mama's Family. I was very surprised. I didn't know she could sing as well. I could see a movie being made out of this song as well.

"Is there life out there" is a great female power balled story song, perfect for female fridays. It became an anthem for women.

Need to do the original version by Vicki Lawrence.

You guys should try Vicki Lawrence's version of this song.

This song I've loved since as long as I can remember, and when Reba done this version, I still get chills to this day.... thanks guys ❤️

Reba is a great country singer has alot of great songs

Vicki Lawrence does it best

I love Rebas version she has class and is the queen of country

Saw Reba in Little Rock on her last tour. AMAZING is an understatement!! She can put up a show! If you ever get a chance to see her, GO!

This song was written by Bobby Russell husband to Vicki Lawrence. Lawrence was on the Carol Burnett show. The Song was written in 1972 and released in 1973.Tthe backing musicians were the Wrecking Crew. The song was offered to Cher And Sonny Bono turned it down. Great song but could you do the original? Please

Vicki Lawrence had this as a smash hit in the 70's, don't be giving Reba too much credit for a cover.

Listen to the original by Vicki Lawrence.

Next you should do "Whoever's in New England" and "Rumor Has It" She has so many Hits.

Reba I sooo good and I can’t wait for you to do more. My favorite and go to Karaoke was “Why haven’t I heard from you?” It’s all about how with so many ways to communicate there’s no reason why he should just stop reaching out. And the forms of communication are definitely pre cell phone but the concept still holds up.
