Reba McEntire’s haunting cover of “So Far Away” by Carole King on her early 2000s sitcom Reba is an emotional powerhouse that brings millions to tears.
The Voice Season 26 Coach Reba McEntire knows how to connect with audiences and channel deep emotions with her musical performances, and a special moment during her 2000s sitcom Reba is a prime example of this.
In Season 2, Episode 15 of Reba, McEntire’s character, Reba Hart, was in the process of mourning her friend Terry’s unexpected death. Since “So Far Away” by Carole King was a personal favorite of Terry’s, Hart decided to do an impromptu performance of the song as a tribute to him.
Given the high emotional stakes, she sang the introspective lyrics with a heavy heart and her own unique tone. Her signature country twang shined through while she crooned gently, working through tears and reflecting on memories of her late friend. After her performance, the live in-studio audience cheered loudly.
About “So Far Away” by Carole King
Written by King, “So Far Away” is a song off her legendary 1971 album, Tapestry. The moving lyrics tell the story of someone who is lonely and missing their lover, both physically and emotionally, in a fast-paced world. James Taylor played guitar on the track, which is considered by music critics to be one of King’s best songs.
