I think that the reason he is so timeless is because his writing is both personal and relatable, and the music itself is enjoyable in any mood, any where
This is the song I listen to when my soul needs soothing. Just drive on a back road with my windows down & Chris playing...all is good in my world again.
that song is amazing and makes me cry, as the anniversary of my own father's death gets closer I have a harder and harder time listening to it though it cathartic when it ends.
I truly believe that it is not just his amazing voice; he writes song that touches your soul and rips your heart out of your chest. This song is what every person that is still in love feels when thinking about the one they lost. So beautiful.
The world is "emotionally impacted" every time they listen to Chris. I am not a musician, don't know much about music, but man. This guy touches my heart somehow and you can see he does the same with everyone who listens to him, even for the first time.
My favorite female country singer is Martina McBride. Best female voice in country! Two awesome choices: Independence Day and Broken Wing. Live versions are best and really show what she can do.
"Barely Alive" the live version, video quality isn't professional, but it's amazing! It will blow you away, I would say it's probably in the top 3 of his performances, if it's even possible to rank them! They are all great! I'm a recent subscriber and enjoy the channel!
To answer your question, I am a huge 90s rap and Alternative fan that stumbled onto Chris Stapleton with JT on the CMAs doing Tennessee Whiskey several years ago. Since then, I have seen him twice in Atlanta and loved them both. I don’t like much country music, but Chris, Sturgil Simpson and Tyler Childers are all A+ in their own unique way.
Chris Stapleton is the kind of talent that makes me want to stop people on the street and ask if they've heard him. And the fact that he can sound so darned good just standing in front of a microphone with an old acoustic guitar - no backup singer, band or auto tune to mask any deficiencies. Nothing to hide behind.
I love what you guys are doing...I found myself there 6 months ago when I stumbled onto one of his songs. By the time I was done, I had spent hours searching for and listening to just about everything I could, just astounded @ his talent. I have spent my time since every few days seeking reactions to his songs and watching others feel for the first time what I felt when I first heard him. This guy can write AND perform just about any genre of music you could think of. Country, Bluegrass, R&B, Rock, Top 40 Pop. Full band or just him and a beat up acoustic guitar. He is a transcendent talent and his love for what he does shines above all when you watch his live performances. If you get a chance, check out his live tribute to Prince (Nothing Compares 2 U). And a second one, which is of a much younger (shorter hair and beard) Chris Stapleton on a songwriter cruise having a live jam session where he sings "Fool Me Again", an old school blues song where you honestly think the cat is channeling Ray Charles or BB King. Both are worth it for sure. Thanks again for what you do. I have thoroughly enjoyed your stroll through this guy's song library and I really appreciate how you guys do what you do.
I listen to Chris because he touches something inside me every time he sings. Check out his Tiny Desk Concert with his wife. They do 3 songs standing in an office at NPR in DC., it is great. Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa, I"d Rather Go Blind, live in Amsterdam if you are not fans already.
This song, is his way of asking the girl (that he has broke up with) where she’s at in her life… He don’t wanna come right out and ask are you seeing anybody… He don’t want to come out and ask are you missing me… He knows her so well that based on what song she’s she’s listening to, he knows where she’s at... He finishes by saying you know what I’m playing over and over again, that’s his way of telling her where he’s at…. The man is a storyteller, he’s not just a songwriter, he’s a writer!
Leslie Jordan, Morgane, and Chris Stapleton: Farther Along. Please, please, please. Wishing you won't let me down and you will most definitely be blessed.
HIs voice makes you want to either close your eyes and just appreciate. Or it makes you open them wide in shock with what exactly he's capable of. But please react to Amanda and You Are My Sunshine by him and Morgane.
Hey guys always enjoy your reaction... I'm still going to keep saying it until you do "Amanda live at the Grand Ole Opry" just do it! You will not regret it! It's also amazing quality video and audio as it is the Grand Ole Opry!
Zac Brown band's "Free" extended version is comparable to this for emoting an altered state of mind; taking you away better than any Calgon bubble bath and wine ever could. Chris is the King but Zac is a handsome Prince.
Chris is one in a million, love all of his music. You asked what else we love, well how about getting into some Led Zeppelin? Try "When the Levee Breaks" for starters, I have a feeling you will enjoy some Zeppelin if you don't know yet.
This song gives me a Bryan Adams summer of 69 or Bob Seagar Turn the page I guess.. Just incredible story telling. The simplicity of what he does.. Barely Alive acoustic is my favorite!
Chris has been a writer for years. He's wrote hits for everyone like, Luke Bryan, Adele, Taylor Swift, Joss Stone, Thomas Rhett, Bkake Shelton, & the list goes on & on. He did his own album in around 2013 & skyrocketed from there.
And I gotta also add that Shinedown's ENTIRE latest album, "ATTENTION ATTENTION," is fire. Best songs being "Monsters" (AMAZING video), "Black Soul," "Brilliant," and "Special." But really? Every single one of those songs hits and you guys should listen to all of them. Enjoy.
I love Chris too, I'd been litening to him before he "broke out" when he performed with Justin Timberlake. If you want to hear another amazing songwriter in the country genre, you should listen to Turnpike Troubadours - 7&7, Good Lord Lorie, Every Girl
By the way Chris used to play with the Steeldrivers, listen to Blue Side of the Mountain... he also played, for a short while, in a band called the Johnmpson Brothers listen to their song Barely Alive. You guys will dig it.
Glad to see you guys catching up with Chris Stapleton I told ya so a while back I knew you would love him .. the guy is amazing , I think the words he shares in his songs are so relevant to every adult who has sojourned through life.. the guy writes songs for life and its like life is so much better and so much more real … this is about him wondering about his ex girl friend wondering what she is listening to … listen to what he is saying .. its a break up song and its something anyone who has ever loved and lost always wonders .. what is she doing now .. or whats she listening to .. killer song .. you guys are doing a great job tc men.
New sub....You guys are great. Do yourselves and all of us a favor and PLEASE react to "Barely Alive by Chris and " More of You" with Chris and Morgan. Keep up the great work guys.
I LOVE CHRIS STAPLETON!!!!! But I think y'all should check out The Black Keys, anything Metallica, Imagine Dragons, Ed Sheeran collaborating w/Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars "Blow." Also check out Yebba.She has a voice that will set your hair on fire and melt your soul. Her songs "My Mind" and "Evergreen" are my favs ,but have also fallen in love with her collaboration with Ed Sheerean. Amy Winehouse, Stevie Ray.
Yet again another beautiful Chris Stapleton track. 🥰👍So I'm gonna keep asking guys, please react to any RORY GALLAGHER track, my faves... As the crow flies, cradle rock, hoodoo man, what in the world. Irish blues/rock multi-instrumentalist. He was my dads guitar hero, when he listened to rory, so did the nieghbourhood. Drove my mum crazy. Lol. 🤣🎶🔊 Unfortunately Rory is no longer with us, as he died at the age of 47😥. R.I.P. RORY 🇮🇪🎸🔥⚡🥰
Chris Stapleton's music makes you feel. That's what great music does. I'm a huge fan of his and I'm so happy y'all found him! P.S. I like a little bit of every genre of music. I grew up in the 70s so love classic rock, but, I also like a tiny bit of hip hop, lots of country, classical music and R & B. And Blues.
This song is up there at the top of my list for Chris! I’ve got it as my ringtone for my messages on my phone. And I agree with you I could listen to him all day long!
Great reaction guys. 2 suggestions The White Buffalo At: Guitar Center "The Whistler" (about a guy coming back from war) And Uncle Lucius - Keep The Wolves Away
❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥 CS but I also enjoy Prince, Eva Cassedy, Phil lynnot, Buddy guy, B B King, Tony Joe White, Robert Cray Band, Spyro Guro, Kenny G, The Shipdogs, The Creatures, The Rival sons, Pink Phloyd, Luther Vandross, Alicia Keys, Opera by Buccini, Roberta Flag, Aretha Franklyn, Erica Badu, Elvis, Eagler, Queen, CCR and many many more 🇩🇰🌷😀 you know guys, - it always depend on the mood I'm in and which ourcasion. 🚴😂
Along with Chris, I listen to lots of music. Country, rock, and being from Louisiana even a little Zydeco! With that being said I’d say try Horace Trahan “Butt Thang!” Is a nice, funny, kinda short Zydeco song.
Y'all need to listen to some Blackberry Smoke! They are a southern rock band from Atlanta and do not have a bad song. " one horse town" is a good one to start with. In my opinion, the best band in the land.
Have you reacted to I Was Wrong at Austin City Limits? I first understood Chris as a great song writer, then singer. But that performance of I Was Wrong made me appreciate more, his guitar playing. He ended the song with guitar solo that I really liked.
Hey guys I'm new to your Channel I think you guys would be really enjoy Vice by Miranda Lambert the lyrics are pretty spot-on it's just a very well written song that she poured her heart into. By the way thanks for jumping on the Chris Stapleton bandwagon he is f****** amazing!! I love watching people listen to him for the first time!!😁 you have to hear nobody to blame, that's actually pretty funny... when the stars come out, millionaire, was it 26 ,I was wrong, Daddy doesn't pray anymore ,might as well get stoned, Traveller so many others what I'm trying to say is you guys basically need to do a marathon of Chris Stapleton
Have you checked out Chris Stapleton when he was with the Steeldrivers from 2008 to 2010. The Steeldrivers are amazing. Bluesy bluegrass is what I would call them if you aren't familiar. Try their opry live debut on 05/08/2008 I believe. Chris sings Drinkin Dark Whisky and Midnight Train to Memphis.
I am a big fan of your reaction videos..I love Chris Stapleton, but also recommend Sia..I love to run to the song Titanium..makes me feel like Joan Benoit running even when I am slow as molasses :)
I like it all, but Chris is one of my favorites. If you like him, I believe you guys will like Marc Broussard or Look up Tab Benoit both very good and both have a blues vibe. I listen to everything from Tupac to Willie Nelson and everything in between.
