Randy Travis

rdfs:comment

Randy Travis (b. 1959) is a country singer who has appeared a couple of times on Sesame Street. He sang "How Should I Tell You I Love You" with Telly (EKA: Episode 2926), and "You Gotta Ask Some Questions" (EKA: Episode 2782). Influential Country Music singer of the 1980s and 1990s. Born Randy Bruce Traywick, he didn't break into the scene instantly: a deal with Paula Records in 1978 produced only two dud singles. Three years later, he released a live album as Randy Ray, but it wasn't until 1985 that he signed a contract with Warner Bros. Records, this time as Randy Travis. Even this wasn't an instant success, as his first Warner single, "On the Other Hand," stalled at #67 on the country charts. However, he had a Top 10 hit with "1982" only a year later, and then persuaded the label to re-release "On the Other Hand." Despite this unorthodox move, that song went on to become his first #1 hit. Of his next twelve singles, all but two went to #1 on the country charts. Randy Bruce Travis Randall Traywick (born May 4, 1959), known professionally as Randy Travis, is an American singer-songwriter, musician, guitarist, actor, gangster rapper, and repeat felon. Since 1985, his career has been circling the proverbial drain with the modest reception and ultimate failure of nearly two dozen studio albums, in addition to more than 50 singles, from which only 3 managed to sporadically graze the bottom of the Billboard Hot 200. Considered a joke in the music industry, all things considered, Travis struggled throughout his career to make a name for himself, much like he struggled throughout his life to be loved and accepted. A resolve he could never achieve, and a pain that was well documented on his debut album, which stood as a testament to all of the things that Randy Travis was supposed to appear in MYCUN: The Movie as one of Carrie Underwood's henchmen, but he was cut due to development problems. Randy Travis is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist, and actor. Since 1985, he has recorded 20 studio albums and charted more than 50 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, and 16 of these were number-one hits. He only once appeared in Peggy's Fan Fair. Travis guest starred on the Nickelodeon animated series Hey Arnold! in the episode "Mr. Hyunh Goes Country" not only providing Mr. Hyunh's singing voice for the song "The Simple Things" but also as the character Travis Randall.

Of his next twelve singles, all but two went to #1 on the country charts. Although Randy was a little more sporadic on the charts come the mid-1990s, he was still a consistent seller of albums. Even a switch from Warner Bros. to DreamWorks Records in 1997 kept him going for a couple more years until 2000, when he switched from his traditional, hardcore, honky-tonk sound to country-gospel. Randy Bruce Travis Randall Traywick (born May 4, 1959), known professionally as Randy Travis, is an American singer-songwriter, musician, guitarist, actor, gangster rapper, and repeat felon. Since 1985, his career has been circling the proverbial drain with the modest reception and ultimate failure of nearly two dozen studio albums, in addition to more than 50 singles, from which only 3 managed to sporadically graze the bottom of the Billboard Hot 200. Considered a joke in the music industry, all things considered, Travis struggled throughout his career to make a name for himself, much like he struggled throughout his life to be loved and accepted. A resolve he could never achieve, and a pain that was well documented on his debut album, which stood as a testament to all of the things that would never come. Storms Of Randy's Life sold forty copies upon its 1986 release (most of which were purchased by the late Mrs. Traywick as a consolation to her troubled son), and tanked within hours of hitting the market. He followed up with a stellar replica of failures that somehow just managed to sell throughout the 1980s, including 1987's This Ol' Heart Is Forever, 1988's Old 8x10 of Mama & Me, and 1989's No Holdin' This Ol' Boy Back. By the mid-1990's, Mrs. Traywick had passed away, leaving an even bigger hole in Randy's record sales and paving the way for many more problems professionally, and personally. Having lost his trailer, alienated his remaining family through his erratic behaviors, and ultimately resorted to giving out free copies of his music from the back of his pickup truck in the more impoverished areas of the transcontinental United States, he soon took up an alcohol and cocaine habit, which proved to be his undoing and led to many guest spots on the hit TV show COPS (which served to publicly scrutinize him, as well as his overall career in ways he had never even imagined). His misgivings have grown increasingly worse over the years, continuing well into the 2000's and the 2010's with his music becoming even more unilateral and narcissistic, his arrest record at fever pitch, and his addictions so far out of control that in 2013, he finally suffered a near-fatal stroke. Despite all of the adversity against him, however, Hollywood took pity and awarded him a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2014.
