The Oak Ridge Boys 6 or 7 years ago teamed up with Home Free and sang this together a cappella. Super good!

I saw that! It was so fun to watch them react to each other as singers. It looked like a blast!

I was going to say that they collab with Home Free on their famous song.

@williamfaust5769 2 года назад

The man with the black hair, and suit, actually did the bass. His name is Richard Sterban. Great voice and fantastic group. They have a ton of hits in the country as well as Gospel genres. You should check out more of their hits.

@kevinhouse4376 2 года назад

"Dream On" really showcased Richard's smooth bass.

@mike-N6S 2 года назад

Richard Sterban - the well-dressed one in the suit and tie - is the bass, and is one of the most recognized bass singers in country. Before he joined the Oaks, he was part of the Stamps Quartet who sang backups for a guy called Elvis Presley. For Jordan's passion, Richard was also one of the original investors of the Nashville Sounds, the Triple-A affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers.

@melaniesuter7936 Год назад

I remember when they hit the charts how shocked everyone was that he was the bass and not William Golden

This brings up bittersweet memories for me. My dad would take me and my sisters to get pizza and the restaurant had a juke box. He would let us play some songs but we always played this for him. Thought it was his favorite. Years later he said it's a good song, not his favorite but he never sad anything because he was proud his 6-10 year old daughters weren't selfish and thought of him too. He passed in 2019, song still makes me tear up.

@tigerprayers2824 2 года назад

I feel the same. Went to a baseball game Atlanta Braves, special day with my Dad. Between innings they played this song and Dad started dancing acting a fool. I was horrified before turning around and seeing the whole second deck dancing and acting a fool. It was a moment to remember with Dad who passed in 2010.

This group The Oak Ridge Boys and another group The Statler Brothers were big mainstream Gospel groups for decades before moving to secular country music in the 1970s! Both groups were known for their awesome harmonies and have many more songs for you to explore!! In the future with either group the music video and live versions are what you want to react to as they are entertainers as well as awesome singers!

This song was so famous when it came out that they played it on the pop/rock stations as well.

@willow0828 2 года назад

It’s funny, because the guy you would least expect to have the deep voice, has the voice.

@jimmayors2315 2 года назад

By the time the Oak Ridge Boys covered this song and made it one of their signature songs, Elvira _Mistress of the Dark_ was growing in popularity on TV also.

@tsefcik 2 года назад

And anyone who doesn't know who that is needs to treat themselves to a Google search right now for her. God bless the 80s! 😂

@poppyreads736 2 года назад

And the song isn’t even about her. The songwriter got the idea because he saw a street sign for Elvira Avenue in Nashville.😁

@michaelmacdermott6340 2 года назад

I think I may have met your stepmom. There was this bar I used to roll into on my Harley when I was in the Navy, and there was this one woman that every time she heard this song she went to long lengths to make sure everybody in the bar knew that she just hated this song. She was a trip. A lot of us waited till she was drunk and made sure that we put the song on just to get to her, it was hilarious to hear her scream from the other side of the bar and get so upset.

@donferoce5652 2 года назад

Did she say why she hated it? I knew a Sherrie who hated "Rock the Casbah" by The Clash until she found out they were singing: "Sharif don't like it", not "Sherrie don't like it".

BTW, the lead singer on this song, Joe Bonsall (who recently passed away) was born and raised in Philadelphia and was a regular dancer on Dick Clark’s “Bandstand”.

@chriso6719 2 года назад

Written and originally performed by Dallas Frazier in 1966. This 1981 cover was one of the Oak Ridge Boys biggest songs, and it's the version that most people know. The acapella group Home Free did a version with the Oak Ridge Boys The deep voice is the second from the right, Richard Sterban.

And no the guy with the beard is not the low voice. It's the one right next to him on that pic you paused on when you said that. I always though the same but say a TV show with them back in the 80s and found out who has the low voice. The cleanest cut of the band lol.

@robertg7396 2 года назад

Woo hoo! Love me some Oak Ridge Boys. "Elvira, Bobbie Sue" "American Made" "Sail Away". "Dig a little Deeper" are my favorites

@heinleinreader 5 месяцев назад

Actually, the guy second from the right is the bass. The guy with the big ZZ Topp beard is the baritone. It's not always the biggest guy that does the bass. Look at Pentatonix. The biggest guy is Scott, the blonde, who's their baritone. The original bass, Avi, and their replacement bass, Matt, both are shorter and leaner than Scott.

This song was a monster hit indeed!!! By the way, the guy singing with the deep voice is not the guy with the white beard.

Love love love love this!!!! I remember seeing them live a a little boy in the 1980's, at the Washington County fair in Wisconsin. When they did this song.....it seemed like the entire county was there to join in!!!!! Thank you for reacting

This is one of those songs that you have to sing along with whenever you hear it!

I also love home free doing this song with the oak ridge boys!! It's amazing.

"High Ho Silver, Away" was the quote of The Lone Ranger that they used. Love watching The Lone Ranger as a kid and helped me love "Elvira" even more.

I was lucky enough to see them in concert when I was 9 or 10. My sister and I flipped out when they looked directly at us and waved!! Bobby Sue is one of my favorites by them.

Love this song. Also the version they did of this song with Home Free. The one singing bass is the dark-haired man without a beard on the right, Richard Sterban. They have been a group since 1947 and they are still touring! Ozark Mountain Jubilee, American Made, Thank God For Kids.

the original Oak Ridge Boys got together in 1947..... Before these guys could walk. Oak Ridge Tennessee was a town built to support and house the top secret nucular (atomic bomb) program. Originally a gospel group

This is one of my mother’s favorite groups! She loved this song. This is one of the first songs I remembered learning! Yes I’m that old!

I love this song! They drew a lot of inspiration from a 50s/60s R&B group called The Coasters, who you *have* to check out soon. Some of the Coasters' hits are "Charlie Brown," "Yakety Yak," "TV Fanatic," "It Ain't Sanitary," "Youngblood," "Poison Ivy," and my favorite, a song which came with its own skit (which I've never seen 😞), "T'ain't Nothin' to Me."

I remember as a child my uncle would sing along with this song. It's the only one I remember him singing, but he sounded like he should have been with them. So, this song is a pleasant memory.

JD Sumner, who toured with Elvis had the lowest register i think of anyone. He was on alot of songs like Way Down.

Back in the days when the Billboard Top 40 included different genres of music, a track like "Elvira" which was a huge #1 country record could cross-over to the Pop chart and do well. "Elvira peaked @ #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1981 and won a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Group.

A great pick for Female Friday is one of the first and biggest crossover hits of the late seventies "Don't it make my brown eyes blue" by Crystal Gayle. A month at number one on the Country chart, three weeks at number two on the Pop chart, only kept from number one by the second-most overplayed song of the Seventies, "You light up my life" by Debbie Boone. (Most overplayed was "Love will keep us together" by The Captain and Tennile.)

@maverick2242 2 года назад

Totally, actually completely forgot about this song, but it comes flooding back to the early 80s when at high school junior this one, back when..

hahah love the reaction! This is a fun song. I love The Oak Ridge Boys so much. 'Leavin' Lousiana in the Broad Daylight', and 'Y'all Come Back Saloon' are among my favorites, also 'Come on In'. Honestly they have so many great songs. ALSO - The Oak Ridge Boys Christmas album (1982) is EXCELLENT and one of my Top 3 Christmas albums of all time. I would recommend listening to the WHOLE thing, nearer that time of year. :) But I definitely recommend taking a listen to, 'Thank God for Kids'.
