Okay so Lionel Richie wrote the song while he was trying to become his own artist a solo act he had met Kenny Rogers and they became friends and Lionel actually lived with Kenny Rogers for a considerable amount of time and they have been lifelong friends

My husband found a way to always have this song played on our anniversary. Whether it was a song request on the radio, queued up in the car, or the time he tried to learn to play it on the saxophone to wake me up. The most memorable one was when he got my whole office to sing it. Even patients joined in. And he came out in a patient gown with a rose in a biohazard bag. I worked at the VA. People talked about it for quite awhile. For the record, none of the other patients were in gowns. I wasn't in that part of the facility then. I think he just liked showing off his hairy legs.

This is a performance that never gets old. Never. This was recorded in 1980 and it is still gaining Kenny new fans. Coward Of The County Is (as far as I am concerned) one of the greatest storytelling, country music songs of all time. I also suggest "Islands In The Stream" with Dolly. And "Daytime Friends". "You Light Up My Life." "The Gambler" "She Believes In Me" "Through The Years" But..."Coward Of The County" should really be your next Kenny song.

I know I'm one of the awesome ones, I'm one of the weird ones. Want to put me in the mood, play "Nobody" by Keith Sweat featuring Athena Cage, but I'm weird. I remember them playing this song on the radio and my siblings and I would sing it trying to be famous in a station wagon the way to a bluegrass festival...this song brought back some serious memories. Keith, sing it for her anyway. It doesn't matter if you completely suck, if she loves you, she will love that you tried even if you can't carry a tune in a bucket. And I'll behave as far as Dustin is concerned. (yeah, I think he's cute) Anyway, the bourbon... It seems to have a great color. I'll add it to my list for bourbons to try starting in January.

Kenny was a heck of an artist. I mean, I grew up staying as far away from anything country as I possibly could. But in the 80s, my parents had an Kenny 8-track. I would listen to Coward of the County and Lucille over and over. They fascinated me. - Keith
This song is pure catnip.
The Gambler is a must for Kenny.
You guys might enjoy "We've got Tonight" preformed by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

Find the performance at a CMT awards a short time before Kenny passed, where he & Lionel perform it together. The love between them & friendship is amazing. And Lionel did record this one too.
My favorite song. 😁

Back in the early eighties Kenny Rogers was inescapable. He was everywhere all over the airwaves and popped up everywhere, kinda like COVID-nobody was immune. But in a good way. I was way into metal and funk back then but he still managed to worm his way into my heart and soul.

You need to listen to the video where Kenny is going to sing the song and calls up Lionel to sing it with him. The show was actually one that promoted the album Lionel did with all country singers.

Here's a take for you Roger's SUCKS and isn't country can count his good songs on one hand.
This is a performance that never gets old. Never. This was recorded in 1980 and it is still gaining Kenny new fans. Coward Of The County Is (as far as I am concerned) one of the greatest storytelling, country music songs of all time. I also suggest "Islands In The Stream" with Dolly. And "Daytime Friends". "You Light Up My Life." "The Gambler" "She Believes In Me" "Through The Years" But..."Coward Of The County" should really be your next Kenny song.

I know I'm one of the awesome ones, I'm one of the weird ones. Want to put me in the mood, play "Nobody" by Keith Sweat featuring Athena Cage, but I'm weird. I remember them playing this song on the radio and my siblings and I would sing it trying to be famous in a station wagon the way to a bluegrass festival...this song brought back some serious memories. Keith, sing it for her anyway. It doesn't matter if you completely suck, if she loves you, she will love that you tried even if you can't carry a tune in a bucket. And I'll behave as far as Dustin is concerned. (yeah, I think he's cute) Anyway, the bourbon... It seems to have a great color. I'll add it to my list for bourbons to try starting in January.

2nd video I’m suggesting “family tradition” by Hank Jr.
There's a video where Lionel Richie is getting an award! Kenny Rogers is on stage and tells the story of how the song Lady came about! And then Lionel and Kenny sings the song together! It's a pretty funny story of how the song came about!
Guys- Y’all MUST check out the live version of this w Kenny AND Lionel. They co-wrote the lyrics & Kenny’s telling of the story (& Lionel’s affirmation of same) is hysterical!!😂 But seeing those 2 together- the only thing more beautiful than the song may be the friendship❤️ The audience is full of country artists so def BCR friendly🥰 In fact, the first face you’ll see is Carrie Underwood’s (bonus plan!!🤣) But it is NOT ‘Crossroads’. Look for the 6:38 timed video. PRICELESS.. Always enjoy your reactions; Thank You! Stay safe & love much💖
