Reba McEntire

Have you heard of Reba McEntire?

She is one of America’s great female country music performers.

Yes, Reba McEntire (born March 28, 1955) is a Grammy award-winning American country music artiste who’s singing career and breakthrough success came in the late 1980’s.

She produced and released a series of successful albums and number one singles in the 1980s and 1990s.

Sometimes she has been referred to as "The Queen of Country," having sold forty one million records in the United States and fifty million worldwide. She ranks as the seventh best-selling female artist in all genres and is the second best-selling female country artist of all time.

She had originally planned to follow her mother’s footsteps to become a school teacher but fate had it, she pursued a singing career instead, a career that spanned more than 20 years and that made her one of country music's most influential female vocalists and one of the most well-loved entertainers.

Indeed, she credited her success to her mother who had taught her and her siblings how to sing at a very young age.

Her singing style is unique and I particularly enjoy the following 2 hits.

1. The Greatest Man I Never knew, a beautiful duet with Kelly Clarkson, the music-video courtesy of "mido 1975".

2. Cathy’s Clown, the music-video brought to us courtesy of "beingme84". Thank you for sharing.

Turn up the volume, listen and enjoy.
