You NEED to do Loretta's song FIST CITY!!! She's a baddie!!!❤

Check out Loretta Lynn's "FIST CITY"!!!

Lynn married Mooney at 15, was a mom by 16. 4 kids by 22. She was 1 of 8 kids living in a 1 room cabin .She entered contests for fun & prize money. Her actual life much like Dolly Parton was more amazing than the stories. The poverty in US was severe in a way that’s hard to understand now. Dirt poor, no heat ,water from a well , sew your own clothes,walk if you’re going, if you had. Radio you were lucky, make your own entertainment. That is the world that produced the Country of old . A lot of other genres too

Loretta and Conway Twitty made many duets together, one called YOU'RE THE REASON OUR KIDS ARE UGLY is hilarious. Now their grandchildren perform together as Twitty and Lynn

Lynn is the most-awarded female country recording artist of all time. 18x Grammy Award-winner. 60-year career, touring until the age of 85. 50 studio albums.

Miss Loretta passed in 2022 at 90! She was married to her husband for 48 years! He died in 1996. She was an incredible artist. Super strong woman.

Loretta Lynn is not a country woman singer. She was THE country woman singer. RIP Loretta.

Loretta wrote songs about her life. And she never backed down. Her husband was not exactly faithful. But she stuck with him any way. One women told her twins ,when they were children, she was with their Dad now. They told Loretta and she went to the woman's house! Check out Fist City and The Pill

Loretta doesn't give the man in her life an easy pass either. Check out 'Don't Come A-Drinkin (With Lovin On Your Mind)'. One tough lady.

Yall watch the movie based on the true events of her life. She was part of the producing staff and consulted with the actors to make sure it was told as it actually happened. She was a baddie when she was young and she was a baddie when she passed! The movie is Coal Miners Daughter. The actress Sissy Spacek played Ms Loretta and won an Oscar for the part. Tommy Lee Jones played her husband Doolittle Lynn. Lynn is the actual last name not Loretta's middle name as some have thought. She is fascinating and you are right.. DOES NOT PLAY.. She invented FAFO!

In 1981 Sissy Spacek won the Academy Award in the best actress category for her portrayal of Loretta in “Coal Miner’s Daughter”. Worth the watch ✌🏼

You know she is a true Southern woman she can put you down and smile while doing it

Loretta has many amazing songs You should check out FIST CITY, GOD BLESS AMERICA AGAIN, THE PILL, YOUR SQUAW IS ON THE WARPATH, DONT COME HOME A DRINKING WITH LOVING ON YOUR MIND. She was definitely an advocate for women. The Queen of country music, the GOAT.

Definitely do “Fist City” - Ms. Loretta SPELLS IT OUT, and ya better believe she was willing and able to back up her words with action too !

Fun fact: My dad, a teenager, son of a coal miner in eastern KY, was working as a DJ at the local small town radio station back in the day when a teenage Loretta Lynn stopped by to ask the local station to consider playing her new record. Both teenagers… how cute is that?!

She is the queen of country!!!

I love that she delivers that warning with that big glowing smile!

“Women like you are a dime a dozen” is a fantastic line!

Loretta didn't always play the guitar because she wasn't overly good at it; however, she played it in that show because she was pregnant and back then pregnant women were not allowed to show their bellies on television. They always stood behind a high-backed chair or were sitting down or stood with their back to the camera or had something blocking them from the waist down. Loretta had the guitar to hide the fact that she was pregnant. Things sure have changed a lot since then.

You should check out her song, The Pill. She wrote it around the time the pill came on the market.

My Mamaw Nell was one of Loretta's back up singers waaay back in the 60s/70s. I have a picture somewhere of her holding me as a small child. I don't remember back that far, I was under 2 y.o. but the stories I've heard from family were that she was a true lady, tough but genuinely loved,

Her kids always said they knew when daddy messed up. Loretta would right a hit song about it. All her songs are about her life

That guitar is called a steel guitar and you do use a slide to play it, along with floor pedals and knee pedals. It's the quintescential country sound.

You are probably the first person ever to call Miss Loretta “gangsta” that made my day! Happy New Year to you both! Don love the beanie! I can appreciate this music now but I remember hating it when I was growing up 😂😂

Loretta Lynn was 1 of the ladies of country music. Several of her songs were banned from the country radio stations because of what they are about. Some of those songs are: The Pill Fist City You are not Woman enough to take my Man Loretta Lynn was friends with Kid Rock, Dolly Parton, Reba McIntyre, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, and many other artists. Loretta was a part of the outlaw country music with some of her songs. In August of 2020 Loretta and Kid Rock played a joke on their fans by making them think they got married over the weekend. On August 31 2020 Loretta set the record straight that she and Kid Rock didn't actually get married. Loretta was a coal miners daughter. She grew up poor. She was from Kentucky. Her father worked in the Banner coal mines and died from a lung condition that killed coal miners quite often. That condition was called black lung. Black Lung is from breathing in coal dust.

What I love is that she is a take no prisoners kind of girl when others like Tammy Wynette was saying stand by your man or Dolly was begging Jolene not to take her man! Loretta was like uh no! You ain’t even woman enough!!! My kinda chick!!!

She did several duets with Conway Twitty - my favorite: You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly!! 🤣🤣🤣 They also did Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man - that was a good one!! Loretta, to me, is a NATIONAL TREASURE!! I also liked her: Don't Come Home A-Drinkin'.....Early, GOOD Country with GREAT VOCALS!! Her little sister, Crystal Gayle hit it big in the late 70s / early 80s with: Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue, When I Dream, and Talkin' In Your Sleep....ENJOY, GUYS!!!

Loretta is the queen of country. A few months before she passed she challenged country trio Chapel Hill to do a retake om one of her songs (they did a retake of Jolene on AGT) and I am anxiously awaiting the results. Loretta is a lyrical ba****

Don and BP need to see Redneck Woman, by Gretchen Wilson.... and I need to see them see that. lololol

I never thought I would never see a Loretta Lynn reaction on your channel but I’m here for it

Black, watch her movie - Coal Miner’s Daughter…Then discuss it. Loretta always open and honest

Loretta was simply the best and she was a national treasure as well. This one was just a warm-up for "Fist City", which is definitely one you should check out. Another good one to look into would be "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' ". And yes, she passed last year at age 90.

One thing was for sure about Loretta she spoke her mind and that's damn sure thing. She was amazing. Never be another like her.

Loretta was the first female artist to win country music's entertainer of the year. She paved the way for future female artists.

Boys now you diving. This is an iconic oldie in country

Do not mess with Loretta. The Coal Miner's Daughter.. She made many a song about standing up for women. Her Husband was a player.. married her Loretta when she was 13 yrs old.. he was in his 20's.. this is back in the day in the Holler... Loretta made a killing off songs from her life. but she was a feisty biotch.. She was with him till the day HE died.. she didn't have to be.. she was making the money.. but she was raised to love her man and she knew Mooney loved her

Loretta Lynn (April 14, 1932 - October 4, 2022) reigned for many decades as The Queen of Country Music. RIP.

Try Fist City and PILL (she sang about birth control almost as soon as it was approved!) Loretta married at 14 and had six kids. She was married to Dew Lynn for over 50 years and recorded “I Miss Being a Mrs Tonight” after her passed. Loretta was a country Queen! Her duets with Conway Twitty are legendary. She passed in 2023.

One of the first ladies of country music.

You were pointing to a PEDAL STEEL GUITAR on that musician's lap. You should review more Loretta. Ex., "You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly". Good work.

Watch Coal miners daughter. It explains a lot about this queen of country. Listen to the pill she sang this when birth control first came out. Its a hoot! Louisiana woman Mississippi man it a fantastic one with Conway Twitty.

She did alot of duets with Conway Twitty. She died last year was in her 90s.she was in the hall of fame as 1 of the Queens of country music.

This is 100% my favorite of her songs ! And I love a lot of them . Forever list .

Love seeing you guys diving into the history of music I must say. Love the reaction to it and comparing it to your norm. Lol wish you guys a great day

I am a 64 year old subscriber to your channel (you ain't so old, my friend) and I am enjoying your dive into old school country music. I grew up with this stuff and then went on to play in New Wave and rock bands in the 80s and 90s. At the moment, I am mostly interested in BTS!!! But my late father played pedal steel at the Grand Ol Opry and backed Loretta Lynn a few times. I hated this music when I was growing up but now I see its beauty and magic. Not a fan of new country, but I absolutely revere Loretta, Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, and George Jones. BTW, you wanna hear old school country perfection, listen to George Jones' "The Race Is On" or "He Stopped Loving Her Today." Keep up the good work! (BTW, Loretta's husband was a total womanizer, but she loved him and they stayed together for fifty years til he died. Jack White of White Stripes produced and played on her last recording, "I Miss Being A Wife Tonight"...you should listen to that one, too!)

Loretta Lynn, the queen of country music the matriarch of country music meaning she was the longest living grand old Opry member with over a 60 year career

She wrote most of her songs based on her life experiences. Her husband tried to be a player,but Loretta wasn't having it! That instrument that you were questioning is a steel guitar.

Loretta was playing a show...and she spotted the woman that was the inspiration for this song....she jumped off the stage and threw punches on her before getting back on stage to finish off her set!

Back in the day .... Yes, there was no internet but there was "the neighborhood" & thing called gossip which was the human internet. LOL!! Trust me people knew who was boot scooting with someone else's significant other back then, even if they were the last to know, it eventually got around. 👍😎👍 If you get a chance watch Loretta's story in the movie "Coal Miner's Daughter", it's old but every generation should see it & be inspired. Highly recommend it!!

Loretta Lynn and Conway twitty sing a song… it’s old now.. but it’s amazing… GOD bless America again… if you don’t react just listen to it

She's pure country. She also sang Fist City.

Loretta wrote about her life. True experience

Loretta was a certified badass mammajamma. And if you’ve never seen the biopic Coal Miner’s Daughter, it is a MUST. It’s 40+ years old but still a treasure.

She was recording grammy worthy music to the end.

Her granddaughter was on this year’s American Idol. Looks just like her, amazing voice.

One of my most memorable nights was the night I met Loretta Lynn. I was in college in the late '70's in St. Louis and she was appearing at the now-defunct Keil Auditorium, a huge arena and concert hall. My friend, who the previous summer was Ms. Lynn's dresser (an intern position), during her concert tour, had an extra ticket and invited me to go with her. When we arrived, Loretta's famous purple bus was in the parking lot and we got to go on it. Conway Twitty was the opening act and did his entire set in front of the curtain, making the actual stage area part of the backstage. Next thing I know we were sitting behind the curtain playing poker with Loretta's band. After Loretta sang to I don't remember how many thousand people, keeping them all in the palm of her hand, she stood downstage center and signed everyone's autographs as they lined up and approached her. My friend and I stood at her side onstage while she talked to us. We were theater and music majors and she was giving priceless advice about the business of show buiness to us. We said goodbye and started to leave because we didn't want to infringe too much, but she grabbed my friend by the arm and said, "Where you two think you're goin'? You're not leaving me up here all by myself are ya?" I remember my friend mentioned she couldn't wait to graduate from college, and Loretta said, "You just hold tight and you'll be outa there before you know it, wishin' you was back in it." I've met a lot of celebrities in my career but that was and always will be one of my most treasured memories.

You would love "Fist City"!

Loretta Lynn last album was in 2021 and she passed away in 2022 at the age of ninety. Her most controversial song, at the time, was called “The Pill”.

Sissy Spacek did a wonderful portrayal of Loretta Lynn in the movie Coal Miner's Daughter which is the story of Loretta's life. It is a must watch for you at this point. One interesting note about the movie, the singing in the movie is done by Sissy Spacek. She spent days with Loretta at her home studio to "get it right." I heard an awesome story about how Sissy was downstairs in the studio practicing and Loretta's manager came in the house calling out for Loretta and saying how good she was sounding that day when it was Sissy that was singing. Her own manager couldn't tell that it wasn't Loretta!

Honestly, there is No one who hasn’t heard of Loretta….seriously? Coal Miners Daughter is one of the best movies in history, and so is Loretta!

Doubly gangster sung with Loretta's sweet smile and southern accent. This isn't a biker chick in jeans and leather, it's somebody's mama, she and her man may go out on the town every now and then, but don't get in their personal space. She was a daughter of the working class, got rich the hard way, and never for one minute forgot her roots.

Coal Miner's Daughter is the true story of her childhood. The movie is well worth watching. Tommy Lee Jones plays her husband Mooney Lynn and Levon Helm, drumner for The Band, plays her father.

Lorretta wrote all of her own songs based on personal experiences, so we know what this one was about. 😅 She passed away in Oct 2022...she was 90 yrs old. Yes, she sang with Jonny Cash, and others. In case you're interested, there's an excellent movie (1980) of the story of her (hard) life called, "Coal Miner's Daughter". Sissy Specek played Loretta and did all of the singing. (who knew she could sing?) and won the Academy Award for best actress. The movie was also nominated for best picture, best cinematography, best screeplay and best production design. Lorretta was always a colourful woman in the country music world. I didn't like country music, but I enjoyed this movie very much. Thank you for your reaction.

Loretta, was from Butcher Holler Tennesee, and Coal Miners Daughter was the story of her growing up dirt poor. That is a double necked steel guitar.

Unfortunately Loretta Lynn passed away at the age of 90 October 4th 2022 in her sleep at home. She had some of the most incredible songs that any singer has ever sung and I would encourage you just to go through many of her songs. The song Coal Miner's Daughter is about her father and some of her upbringing as a little girl if my memory serves me correctly. One of her sisters that is still living is called Crystal Gayle who was also an incredible country music singer for many years. Check out some of her songs because she has a beautiful voice too. They were using a slide guitar in this song in case you were wondering if that is what it's called. That is one of my favorite all-time Musical instruments.

Loretta started the whole "Angry Country Girl" genre that now features Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, and The (Dixie) Chicks.

There was a movie based on her life called Coal Miner's Daughter starring Sissy Spacek. She WAS a coal miner's daughter. She also had a much younger sister who was a country sister as well, Crystal Gayle

Loretta was the queen of country. There is a movie called Coal Miner's Daughter. It is a biographical film about loretta's life. Big time movie Sissy Spacek played Loretta, Tommy Lee Jones played her husband and the great Levon Helms (drummer, lead singer and played several other instruments as well as being a songwriter) from the band known as The Band played her father. She has another song with a similiar message to this one called Fist City. Oh by the way guys that instrument is a steel or peddle steel guitar.

Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton were queens when I was growing up.

She was so talented. Love Loretta Lynn.

And she meant it. She was a Coal Miners Daughter. There is a movie about her life, it is a few years old but I love it still. She was an amazing lady. Thank you.

Man there are so many great classic country songs. Some of the best writing.

I love her she was my hero I can relate everything she ever went through

Mad respect for one of the queens of country.

All sang with a sweet smile on her face. I was raised by a true Southern Belle. We got venom in our smiles.

Allot of her songs were based on her life experiences. If you want to know more about her, I recommend the bio-pic "Coal Miner's Daughter" with Sissy Spacek. Sissy won the Oscar that year for Best Actress for her portrayal of Loretta Lynn. Tommy Lee Jones play Loretta's husband.

I enjoy that she is singing this with a smile.

I Love This Woman And This Song ! She wrote her music RIP

My dad once worked for Lorretta on her ranch outside of Murphysboro Tenn. She was one cool woman. A great singer as well, most of her music was based on true events that happened during her life. Such as Fist City was about her catching her husband ( Moony ) with another women making out in a car.Moony was known as a womenizer , he got his knickname from running moonshine in Tenn.

Loretta is the Queen of country music, her best friend was Patsy Cline who is also a legend and died was too soon. Loretta died sadly but she will never be dethroned IMO.

Icon. That’s what Loretta Lynn was and is.

"Fist City" is another one from her that I think you would be able to appreciate. She did SO many great ones solo and with Conway Twitty.

Thank you for your reaction. I hope you react to Loretta Lynn Fist City too. 🙂

So glad you found Loretta!!! The Queen and original bad ass!!! She's had the most banned songs by anyone artist! All her songs are based on her own life experiences. Check out Ones on the way, Rated x, and the Pill!

Man does that bring back the memories. She was a favorite of my Mom.

Miss Loretta Lynn was.... unhappily... and infamously... married to the same man for 50 years. Oliver Lynn. Many of her songs are based around this marriage. This is just one of them.

Watch Coal Miner's Daughter... you will get Loretta. You'll love her and the movie. Sissy Space portrayed her to perfection!

Loretta wrote all her own songs! She was awesome!

Country people back in these days were REAL ! They did not know what PRETENTION was. They lived in the moment and called it like it was. They said whatever popped into their head! Dolly Parton has a lot of that in her still ! If you want to see one of the best movies EVER produced, watch "Coal Mine's Daughter" . It is her life story and is SO well written and acted and really shows you life back in those days in the hills and how her life was completely changed through her songwriting and singing. Amazing! Your wife will love it too. Loretta had 8 children I believe. Fun reaction to the original "gangster lady", Loretta Lynn !!!!! 😆👍🤼‍♀️💪💖

I heard that Loretta had more songs that anyone else blocked from radio play back then. Something like 15 songs. She was a straight talking rebel.

Loretta Lynn has passed on after years of failing health. She did music with Conway Twitty (not Johnny Cash). She sang about life and social issues at the time such as women rights and such. She was outspoken and a woman in a time when women were supposed to be quiet and stay at home. She went against the grain and did very well in a male dominated industry.

This is a woman’s anthem for sure. She is amazing- thanks for reacting to this!

Yeah, Loretta! you think of "Coal Miner's Daughter".. where she is all meek and giving it to her family background.. and then you get THIS.. she was awesome!

Pedal steel guitar. My old friend/bf played this instrument for The Bellamy Brothers, it is truly a talent and to me, so vital in country songs.

I grew up on Loretta. My Momma loved her. Loretta stood up and sang the truth of what so many women wanted to say. Please watch the movie, preferably with a reaction, promise u won’t regret it. Another song I love is called “Fist City” yep u heard right. Straight Gangsta lol

She was a very amazing woman. Grew up dirt poor and overcome every obstacle in her path.

Loretta Lynn is one of the best Country singers ever. If you think this song is great, then you should listen to her "Fist City". Jeanette, New Zealand.

You should watch the movie Coal Miners Daughter, it's Loretta Lynn's auto biography. You can see when and why she got the inspiration for this song

This was one of my Da's favorite of Loretta's songs. He used to laugh and tease my mom about being Loretta's soul sister. She was a lady, but had a spine of steel. He teased, but he worshiped the ground she walked on. Whoa be the person who disrespected her in any way 'cause Da would take a strip off them (so Mom wouldn't get arrested). The woman wheeled one mean long handled wooden spoon! LOL! But the way he looked at her . . . when he thought no one was paying attention, it was that look I hunted for when considering who I would marry. It totally worked! The first things I brought into our marriage was the heirloom iron skillet and a long handle wooden spoon. ☺

Coal Miner's Daughter is biographical to Loretta. She wrote many. Another good one is Fist City. She wrote and sang about The Pill when it first came out. She was the Queen of country music. She passed last year. Her sister is Crystal Gayle. I believe that's what I grew up calling a steel guitar, but is properly called slide guitar.
