You will love the original from 1973 by Vicki Lawerence whose husband at the time wrote the song for Cher but was turned down by Sony Bono. Vicki a member of the legendary cast of The Carol Burnett Show,recorded it this has become one of the greatest one. hit wonders

The original version was done by Vicki Laurence and was better. No video with schmaltzy voice over. It left it to your imagination to fill in the blanks.

I don't usually like remake song, but both are really good, Reba never destroyed it like I feel most remakes are. I give Vickie and Reba thumbs up. This was a one hit wonder for her and Reba did her and this song good.

Vickie Lawrence was on the Carol Burnett Show for the whole time that the show was aired on TV ... they loved her and she looked so much like Carol Burnett that she could have passed for her sister. Here is Vickie singing it in 1973. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a5h6dM2kuqetfoU.html

A lot of reba's videos, especially early on, were mini movies set to music. Some people like it, some don't. She's very theatrical even in her live shows.

They did the video this way... with dialog over the lyrics... because this wasn't a new song at the time. Every country music fan was very familiar with the Vicky Lawrence version. Plus, by the time this video was released the Reba version had been on the radio for quite a while.

Fantastic song. I totally get the debate over live vs official video. I think it is good that you saw the video first, as it does fill in a few gaps, though maybe too directly. That said, you will really appreciate the song on it's own.

@TEDodd 9 ай бұрын

No gaps to fill. It's all in the lyrics. The video is fine if you know the song, but it's out of sync with the story in the lyrics.

@@TEDodd I never caught on that the judge cheated with the wife too until I saw the video. I thought he was just one of those ones that wanted to shut the case, give the punishment, and didn't care if they had the right person as long as it worked on paper. The video changed my understanding of the story greatly.

@TEDodd 9 ай бұрын

@@chlupl that's not in the song. That was extra added to make the Judge look worse. It was about corrupt small towns. The judge and sheriff being buddies, not investing and a shame trial. Many miss that the brother was accused of killing his friend Andy, not Seth who was the guy Andy said his wife was cheating with. And the video plot of Andy and the wife being killed together doesn't match the lyrics. And said she was with Seth. No implication that when he went home she was there. Always bugged me that we don't hear what happened to Seth. Did the sister kill him too? Maybe when she killed the wife?

The Reba version is a cover. Vicki Lawrence did the original version. The 2 verrsions have very different " Feels ". For me the Vicki Lawrence version feels more Blues / Jazz and Reba's more Rockish.

You should Google Vicki Lawrence. She played Mama on "Mama's Family. A spinoff from the Carol Burnett show. She was also a huge part of Carol Burnett's show. I head that Cher was offered this song but Sonny didn't think it was up to her standards. IDK.

Off subject, but it's something I randomly remember when listening to Reba. In 1991, 7 members of her band and her manager were killed when the plane they were on crashed. Reba was supposed to be on the flight, but she wasn't feeling well, so she decided to stay overnight and join them the next day. As expected, it devastated her.

@cynthiajamison4006 10 ай бұрын

I agree with what you're saying about the video, because that's the one thing that bothers me...if you don't know the song well and you're watching a video that is playing out like a scene from a movie, It almost overpowers the vocals of the song and so you're struggling to try to understand what's going on because you're hearing somebody talking and you're also hearing somebody singing the song. For someone that is doing a reaction, it's almost better to hear the song first alone and then watch the video to it. When the song first came out it was super popular... everybody listened to it on the radio... heard the song and then later when the video came out it was easy to follow along and understand. I also agree that Reba is one of the best!! I've seen her in concert...I love her❤ that's the one thing about country music is the storyline is always so good and it paints a picture immediately in your head of what is happening... that's what draws you in❤
