The video was a beautiful tribute. I loved it. There's really nothing more to say.

I agree, that was basically perfect. Very simple, yet elegant. I definitely hope this can do at least as much as "Until They Don't Love You" did, since it means so much to Reba.

Absolutely beautiful video. Simple, yet extremely powerful. This is exactly how it should have been.

Songs like this need to be released as first singles. Artists usually leave them to third or fourth singles, and I just don't get it. Still, love the song, love the video, and will be crossing fingers so it can make a mark in the charts <3

That was one beautiful song/video, thanks for posting it. It's about time we see some Reba high on the charts and hopefully this song will do it.

I know we all wish Reba was still more prevalent on the radio, but how lucky are we that after so many years in the industry, she is still churning out amazing songs AND amazing videos. I kind of am overwhelmed by the video and song, and instead of being bummed out that this won't be a hit, I am going to take solace in the fact that we still get to hear and see a true legend give us new music and videos after so many years.

Finally got to see the video. Easily the most powerful and personal in Reba McEntire's catalog. I am crying over it. The beginning and end are hauntingly beautiful. I would rank it up there with the Fancy and Does He Love You videos.

It's the best song on Love Somebody. I hope it ends up doing well. I noticed the video hit #1 on iTunes so it is hitting the mark with some people.

Starting to wonder if they're even going to bother with trying to get this on radio. I'd been wondering for awhile because they had a lot of stuff for the rollout of the music video but none of it really touched on a release to radio.

Oh man, I am going to be heartbroken if this album doesn't get any more singles... The squandered hit potential just might do me in...

I could see Nash Icon sending this one to radio on Cumulus stations only but I don't think this will get pushed like "Going Out Like That" was. A video with perhaps some limited airplay is it.

The music video is amazing! I really hope this song is a hit. It's selling really well on the music videos section on itunes!

This is a beautiful song and amazing video. The video is really drawing attention. The video is 2nd on the video country chart on ITunes and 5th on the all genres chart. The song has continued to slowly climb the iTunes country songs chart now at 42 and the Love Somebody album has climbed back up to 33 on the country album chart. I hope if the video continue to draw attention that radio will follow suit. If this song picks up radio support, Reba has a good chance at getting some award nominations. My opinion it's Grammy worthy.

This is such a beautiful song and what a beautiful video it has. My grandmother passed away last year and this really touched me, especially seeing my grandfather being all alone now. :'(
Here's to hoping this turns out to be a hit somehow (even if radio probably won't get behind it).

It's connecting apparently, as per the chart position, if only radio would wise up.

YES, I love seeing this video making such a positive commercial impact :) I never really think of music videos as being huge sellers, so needless to say I am surprised yet thrilled right now!

I'm hoping that Nash Icons starts the airplay push this week. It's the perfect time, with all of the positive reaction to the video.

Well, judging by the tweet up thread, I think they will. :) It makes sense to start the Cumulus airplay the week of the video being debuted. This will likely get very little airplay outside of Cumulus but at least they're still getting songs out to the listening public on the Cumulus stations.

They really should call it something different since it does sound like the dozens of television shows that have a similar name, lol.

Finally heard this one and all I can say is wow. What a song. There's no doubt in my mind that 10-15 years ago this would have been a hit of gigantic portions. At least with the video it will get some attention and Reba is a big enough name to attract some clicks for this song. The vocals are flawless, the imagery is real, and the horses metaphor couldn't be any more graceful and sincere. Wish they would have opened the era with this song when there was already pre-established radio promotion (I know there still is the Cumulus airplay for this single, but it won't be nearly as much as the first lead single).

Today Reba hosted a live video feed where she read a bunch of comments she has been receiving about "Just Like Them Horses" since the video came out. It is almost 11 minutes long, but it is so touching. Reba truly is such a down-home, classy person. Her little sayings and quips and words of advice between each of the comments is almost better than her reading the comments themselves. She is just such a humble and honest person, and you can tell how much these comments from her fans mean to her. I mean, she starts crying after basically the first one! Watching this, I feel like I have just had an experience with Reba herself, and gotten to see her personality as a friend rather than a celebrity. Thank you, Reba, for sharing this song with us, and pouring your heart and soul into everything that you do. Your passion is truly a gift for us all.
Oh, and don't mind the sideways start to the video! It gets fixed after about 1:20 :)
