Cher got started in a duet with her then-husband, & Sonny & Cher had many great hits (I've Got You Babe was their first), plus a very popular TV variety show. On her own, Cher built another great catalogue of songs, along with an award-winning acting career.

Cher was actually very, very shy, but she fell for Sonny, and Sonny said, get out there and sing. She was like 17 and he was much older.
And that was a real live performance as well. Not lip sync. Cher is amazing.

I love "Jesse James" and sing it to my dog(Jesse lol) and was very shocked to learn that Cher actually hates that song! Go figure😳
I love how sweet and innocent you two are with your interpretations. Yes, Amber, there is definitely some dark humor in this song that you are picking up on, because this song (like a lot of Cher's music) is very easy to read as a glimpse into the life of a social outsider. "Gypsies, tramps and thieves" is more than likely what the townsfolk would shout while letting her family know they weren't welcome, and better keep on moving; and the bridge of the song is about how the girl was seduced and abandoned by a 21 year old hitch-hiker when she was just 16. The last verse implies that she went on to have his daughter who is now growing up just like she did, living in the wagon of a travelling show. It's a lot sadder than it is funny actually. But I did appreciate that you both seemed to recognize the double standard of the respectable people of the town shouting slurs at them by the light of day, and coming around at night to watch (and pay) the "dancing girls"

Yes the song implies the day with taunted and Jared it gypsies tramps thieves insult slurs shouting and hollering the finger-pointing but by the same token the people that did this were Hypocrites because they added fuel to the Fire by paying for you-know-what! Also she wasn't so much seduced as she picked up the boy the song States picked up a boy the father knew he was in the Caravan, so hit you ride with them and probably said let me off here not knowing that he was in Memphis or knowing he was just going to Memphis but he knew she was pregnant he didn't want any parts, that had to be sneaky the cabin so small I wonder how they got away with it had to be real quiet I guess when Dad was sleeping??🤔🤫 but in essence things were not much different then than they are now! Get the girl locked up( pregnant)-- and take off like a bandit,( pardon the pun)- reality is a said *shame*!!🥺
I’m not sure if you noticed that in the first verse she talks about Papa selling Doctor good. In the last verse she says Grandpa. Her baby has been born. Now she’s the one dancing for the money they throw.

Talking about her confidence. She's known to put on the most amazing stage shows. Probably one of the best! And at her final tour her farewell concert at the end she's like "BEAT THAT B*tches" 🤣 love her lol
In 1971 when this song came out I was 9. There was this older girl, about 13, down the street I had a crush on. I never had the courage to ask her out but I did ask to go over her house and listen to records with her a few times. This song and "Half breed" are the two songs I remember her playing a lot. She ended up meeting an older guy. Her little bother became my best friend and remained so for 40 years, until he passed away in 2013. She's married to the same guy she met way back then and we are still all friends. That's what I think of when I hear these songs. Me, I married my high school sweetheart 41 years ago.
I had to chuckle when J said, it looked like Cher owned that stage. SHE DID, literally. That video is from her TV show which aired for 2 seasons - 1974 and 1975. Prior to that, starting in 1971, she had a TV variety show with her husband at the time, Sonny Bono. That show ended when they divorced. Truer words were never spoken.

A rare song with truly original subject matter. “Papa would have shot him if he knew what he had done” may be one of the coolest musical verses ever.

Probably my favorite of Cher's many hits. Cher has the somewhat dubious honor of introducing "autotune" to mainstream music in her 1997 song, "Believe" (GREAT song). Since you've heard Cher from 1989 and 1971, you know that Cher most definitely doesn't NEED autotune, but it provides and interesting (and obvious) effect in "Believe" that enhances the production. Sadly, it is not always used for creating effect, but to "improve" the imperfections in performer's voices. I applaud perfection, but imperfection is gloriously interesting and adds a touch of humanity to any performance. Autotune doesn't also sound better, but often sounds "sanitized." Glad you are hitting so many of the great tunes of the past, when artists (vocal and otherwise) relied more consistently on talent and passion than digital magic. Keep up the great work! And congrats on your son!
My mom would blast this song when I was a little kid. Still gives me goosebumps…
Cher was always in her own lane. She was over the top before over the top was popular. Iconic voice. Awesome reaction 👏👏

At the end of every show they would sing that song... no wonder people got so sick of it -- and that it would eventually become iconic in the 'Groundhog Day' movie! I remember at the time of their variety show (when I was pre-teen) the ongoing gag was always how Cher was taller than Sonny and she had the deeper voice! Sonny Bono became mayor of Palm Springs and then a congressman just before his death in 1998. Cherilyn Sarkisian became, well, Cher... Apparently even though they divorced they still had a mutual love for each other -- but I don't think Sonny's broken heart ever fully recovered.
Cher has always had a stunning voice. This is a performance from her and her husband's tv show Sonny & Cher. Her outfits had older folks flipping out.

Cher started out as a duo - Sonny & Cher, with her then-husband Sonny Bono (who ended up in politics out in California) they had a prime-time variety show "The Sonny & Cher Show" back in the 70s (I think lol) had a daughter together (Chastity) they had a huge hit - I've Got You Babe to catapult them into the spotlight.

When they had their TV show, Sonny and Cher always closed the show by singing I Got You Babe. Cher's clothes were all done by the famous designer, Bob Mackie, she was his muse. In fact, Cher started the famous bell bottom jeans trend in the late 60s. I hope you'll dive into some Sonny and Cher soon, and I hope you enjoy the ride!

Cher’s also quite an actress and an Oscar winner. One of my favorites is “Silkwood”, a true story staring Meryl Streep as Karen Silkwood. She and Cher’s character worked in a plutonium fuel rod factory near Crescent, Oklahoma. Karen Silkwood became a nuclear whistle-blower and a labor union activist and died in a mysterious car crash while investigating alleged wrongdoing at the Kerr-McGee plutonium plant. It’s a really good movie if you ever get the chance to see it.

No comedy there. “A gal in trouble” means she was pregnant and she hadn’t seen him for a while. She was 16 he was 21 and poppa would have “shot him if he knew what he done.” I think we can figure that out.

Yeah, "in trouble" is a euphemism that hasn't been used for a long time, so I'm not surprised it didn't register. But yes, after she got pregnant, the song turns from "I was born" to "she was born" -- meaning life turned out the same for her daughter as it was for her.

I was surprised too that the whole plot of the story just went over their heads. The guy they picked up got her pregnant and then took off. Now her daughter was born in the same traveling show she was born in.

Amber had it figured out. She listens.
Check out “Half Breed”. One of my favorites. Cher has a catalog.
Cher’s confidence on stage is a very interesting characteristic of her performance because, when she first started her music career it was at the (strong) urging of her husband Sonny Bono. He wrote her songs, often sang counter to her though his singing voice was nasally and not the best, and marketed them until they achieved fame. Cher had to be urged along by Sonny because despite him knowing and believing in her talent, Cher herself was very shy and unsure of herself. Cher’s lack of confidence in herself eventually subsided over the years abd she has also had a small career in acting and used her popularity to create a public platform from which she has spoken out on a number of topics (many of which I personally do not agree with her on) that she held near and dear to her heart. She has always exuded immense humility and confidence even when young and not believing in her talents the way others did. She’s certainly an amazing woman.
There's a whole conversation to be had about the term being used, by anyone,even back when she made this song, but the song is still beautiful all the same. Have absolutely loved Cher from the day I was born, thanks to my mother. Love her to death. #LoveAndPeace #AndCher
Oh Cher is an original One of a kind . Gotta love her so much and her movies are great too .

Another talented lady that has stood the test of time. You almost need to go back to the days of Sonny and Cher ... "I got you babe" is a classic. In this song, note the transition to her being the mama and "grandpa" did whatever he could.
Such a unique voice and way ahead of her time as a performer!
Cher is amazing. You must check out her duet with Meatloaf (Dead Ringer for Love)
Cher was also a great actress. I think she won an oscar for her performance in the movie Moonstruck in 1987.
Love Cher! She has so many great songs ( I found someone) another one ( Believe) she is a great artist!
This song is generational. It starts out with her as the child, Mother is dancing for the coins they would throw, dad preaching gospel out loud while selling booze and gambling with the men at night. The boy they picked up in Memphis got the main character preg. The baby girl was born in the caravan just like the main character at thr beginning, and now SHE (main character) is the mother dancing for the coins and dad is now GRANDPA doing what he can...as before.

Yeah I like that about this song. Seems they kind of missed that. But "Dr. Good" is not booze. It's "medicine". A concoction of something they're pushing as a "cure all", though it probably did contain some alcohol.

I don't think it mentions gambling with the men at night. I think the reference to 'late at night the men would come around, and lay their money down' refers to her mother (and later her) being a prostitute.

@@mortisrat I believe it is poker or craps (dice) where they "lay your money down" when placing a bet. It's pretty much in every western. The only two females in the story are the mom/wife (I presume) of Dad and the daughter, and considering how dad would have reacted to what the boy did to his daughter (if he had known) I don't think they were into that sort of "laying."

@@trinkab As the men would be more than able to gamble without them there, I don't think they'd show up just to play with a stranger they don't trust, or that the ominous tone of the music and singing would be warranted if that was just about a few guys slinging some dice. What would be missing from a small town is hookers, or at the least some new ones - even in a larger place. Her daddy would probably have killed the guy because he got it for free, and did it when she was still a virgin and without any birth control. I did look it up to check, and it is about prostitution.
iconic singer I've heard my whole life, good choice, thx
I saw Cher live in the early 80s. What a spectacular all round entertainer she was. Musically and comedically. She was a riot
I remember as a kid just screaming, "Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves!!!" at the top of my lungs around the house at the time this song came out. Great reaction !!!
There will never be another Cher, she is one of a kind. This song came out on September 1, 1971 50 yrs to the day and peaked at number 1 in November of 1971. Two other Cher songs worth a listen are THE WAY OF LOVE and LIVING IN A HOUSE DIVIDED.

I know I was going to say the same thing 50 years this week . I remember as a little kid singing this song and seeing her on the Sonny and Cher show.. absolutely love it iconic in every way and think of all of the stars who have come and gone in those 50 years and Cher is still here..
The best female voice that ever breathed coupled with stunning beauty and a fabulous performer (oh, and an Oscar winning actress) - Cher is the X factor.
Y'all are ON FIRE with the song choices today! Again, immediate mashing of the LIKE button! When I was a little girl, I'd run around my house with pajama bottoms on my head, pretending I had waist length hair like Cher, singing this song (with NO idea what it was about). I would also suggest "Dark Lady", "Half Breed", "I Found Someone" and her duets with Sonny Bono, "I Got You Babe" & "The Beat Goes On".
Sarah MacLachlan with "Angel", Carly Simon with "That's The Way I Always Heard It Should Be", Annie Lennox with "Why", Alannis Morissette with "Hand In My Pocket", T'Pau with "Heart and Soul", Emmylou Harris with "If I Could Only Win Your Love" and Joni Mitchell with "Carey"! Hopefully you two can add these to your list for some future Friday!!!!
Cher is a legend!!!! Her singing!!! Her Fashion!!!! Her style!!!!! Just legendary!!!! So popular...She had her own TV Show and that was popular!!!!

Cher is simply a STAR. She exudes such confidence and sexiness. I love to see someone like that perform. So great. Awesome reaction. She's a good actress too. You should check out a couple of her movies .
I saw her in person at one of her farewell tours....she really did have a hard time moving around on the stage BUT that was like 20 years ago so I don't know what's happened in the meantime! Fabulous performer!
SULTRY and CONFIDENT are the words I think of when I think of Cher....
Cher had the number one show on TV for years. Every star at the time wanted in the show. You ca see her with the likes of The Jackson Five (and introduced a 4/5 yo Janet to the world), Tina Turner and Elton John were two others.
Cher is a Goddess. I loved this song back in the day.
Heys guys when it comes to Cher you have to hear her song believe and her duet with Peter Cetera. Congrats on your award and once again on your new baby boy. some suggestions for reactions Vince Gill I still believe in you also will to power I’m not in love and Chris Rea fool if you think it’s over thank you guys keep up the great work.
Listen to “Gypsy” by Fleetwood Mac! Stevie Nicks is one of a kind! ❤️
One thing about Cher, besides the music, is that she is so comical as well… I use to watch their show and loved how she got after Sonny! So funny!
STRONG ENOUGH...Another great Cher tune!!
