What I like about this guy, quite apart from the fact that he is so informative, is the unashamed and completely natural joy he shows for all the music he features. A joy to watch and listen to.
It's been almost 6 months since John Prine passed away, and I still tear up every time I hear someone talk about him. don't know if I'm ever going to fully heal that wound
As a country music singer Kacey has got so much respect from me...she is absolutely a class act from her clear pitch perfect voice to her guitar playing to her outfits...and most of all her attitude. love her. would love to play with her some day!
A couple months ago I listened to this song on repeat probably 100 times. Her vocal talent is off the charts. I loved her track on the Frozen II soundtrack as well. Nice to see you’re a fan as well, I thought I was growing soft.
I am right there with ya on KM. I only knew her music in passing. Was watching the live stream of Coachella 2019 when her set began. Out comes this pretty girl with a sparkly dress who immediately demands the crowds' attention with a killer rendition of "Slow Burn". I guarantee alot of that crowd didn't know her music and had never seen her live but she had them eating out of her hand the whole show. She is the real deal and i have been down a KM rabbit hole ever since. Love her rebellious lyrics and don't give AF what you think ab me attitude!
You helped me understand why I love her voice SO much. I always say "her voice, it's just so clear", not really being able to describe it in any other way. Thanks, AGAIN.
I live in the town next to where she grew up. Our town has Miranda Lambert... 15 miles away was Kacey Musgraves. It's really nice seeing someone's career build and build like theirs. Lots of hard work and well deserved. Also, there's the whole group of local female artists that they have inspired.
I'm still not over losing prine. I grew up listening to so much of him with my father and knowing he will be gone too someday just makes me cry wherever I am. Hope he's got the vodka and ginger ale up in heaven.
I don't even play guitar but subscribed just because your videos are so well made and you're so masterful at what you do. Love watching any artist at the top of their craft. Bravo.
I first saw her play this song a couple years ago on one of those RU-vid rabbit holes. There's s video on there of her and John Prine on a stage together and she sings this song to him. It's badass.
I agree. I discovered Kacey through my dance teacher playing Slow Burn. Then when I was searching for her on RU-vid, found her singing with John Prine. John Prine is and has always been one of my all time -- and the world's - favorite storytelling artists - favorites. I don't think that Kacey just wanted to smoke a joint with John. But I'll leave that there. Love your playing of her song. Wonderful.
As a singer, Kasey is a complex songwriter and a beautiful vocalist! I grew up in Kentucky with John Prine playing my home since I could remember. This song hits me in the feels!!
Very cool. Awesome video sir, nice to see your talented way of showing an appreciation that I also share for both of these artists - once in a while I still seek out the John Prine tributes and this one made me smile 👏🏼 thank you for that
I absolutely love this song and the way she presents it. If you haven't seen the live version she does on stage, you definitely need to. I completely enjoy your videos. The first I saw was "Nose on the Grindstone" and your emotional reaction to such a raw song had tears in my eyes. I've been following Tyler's career well before the "Our Vinyl" sessions and to see an instant fan with that kind of appreciation of his music was amazing. I know how you enjoy story telling and the details they can put into music. You should check out "Using Again" - Benjamin Tod. Such a real, raw amazing song. Paid with soft basic chords and finger picking.
She's one of my favorites. I really enjoy her husband Ruston Kelly's songwriting too. They did a nice rendition of a Johnny Cash poem and filmed it called "To June this morning" if you haven't heard it already.
Yes! Love her sound! Thanks so much for doing this. Check out the video of her and Willie doing Rainbow Connection at the CMA awards. That video is pure.
Thanks for extending the range of the guitar music on your channel. Its great seeing good guitar styles and technique from all genres of Music. As you say not all good songs need to be chock full of solos and runs, sometimes the hardest part is making the absolute basics sound like a million dollars. Kacey does this with ease
Hey man, thanks for posting this. I'm a massive Kacey Musgraves fan, because she is, as you say, the real fucking deal!!! I found and subscribed to this channel because of Tool, yep, but I fucken love Spacey Kacey, all the way from Australia!!! Love you too bro 👍🇦🇺
My favorite female artist without a doubt, beautiful and beyond talented! Not many artists can pull off Johnny Cash's cover of "I've been everywhere" like she did.
Awesome brother, i, like you, am a guitarist, and a massive Tool fan etc... But I am equally a Kacey Musgraves fan, and agree with everything you say. If I could I would do exactly the same, support a top quality female vocalist like Kacey. Absolutely love your videos all the way from northern Australia 🇦🇺 👍
I am really surprised I haven't seen you react to Jason Isbell. Not only is he a generational song writer, he is an Ax Master. Seriously he shreds when he wants too. Some of his songwriting masterpieces for good reactions would be Elephant, Cover Me Up, If We were Vampires. I prefer his lesser know songs but those are his most popular. As far as guitar shredders, there is a live cover of whipping post that is badass or the live version of Never Gonna Change with the 400 Unit his backing band
I ran across your channel looking for blues reactions. Watching you take the time to break everything down has inspired me to pick my sg up and give guitar another try after several failed attempts. Then relized you had a teaching channel with i quickly purchased to learn from you. If you ever had a chance i ran across one of the sexyest cover of i put a spell on you by david gilmour and mica paris. I think you would enjoy it. Thank you again
I saw her a few years back at the White Water Amphitheater in Texas ( very cool outdoor venue.) She opened for Willie Nelson and I hadn't heard of her prevously. She was so good. How good do you have to be to open for Willie Nelson? Kacey Musgraves good! Willie is a legend and can play a whole concert consisting entirely of his "Hit" songs. You forget how deep his catalog is... As awe inspiring as Willie is - I think that night her set may have bested Willies. During some of the tunes like this one - the venue was as quiet as a church. It's one thing to get the crowd whooping and yelling, but it another to get them shut up and listen. Really listen! She made it seem so easy.
My wife drug me to a Kacey Musgraves Christmas show. I knew nothing about her and I'm not really a Christmas guy. The show was excellent. Her band was great, the piano player especially so. But the best moments were the quiet moments where she would just stand in front of the mic with a guitar and play. Her voice was phenomenal. She was playing in the same theater I had recently heard Gillian Welch play and I suspect the theater must be magic because there's no way human voices can be that good.
Dude you and I are in total agreement about wanting to lay down some tasty soundscapes in a female fronted outfit like hers. This song is just perfect. And the Bm back to the resolve in the chorus still gives me chills. I'm literally typing through tears. Thanks for this one. 🙌
Wow, you sound great on that acoustic! Can you react to this? Joey Landreth - Lovin' You (Johnny "Guitar" Watson). Thanks so much for your videos. They're like a music appreciation course as well as a theory lesson.
Thanks for the great analysis and theory breakdown of this song. One can learn a lot from watching her technique. For example, the way she mutes the low D string with her thumb when playing the open A chord, but lets the low D ring out when playing the D chord (6:09). She does the same thing when playing the open C chord at 11:20, because otherwise it would be easy to inadvertently hit the low D string with the picking pattern she is using. The pattern sounds simple, but it is not easy to play accurately, a testament to her guitar mastery. This song could have been written by John Prine himself, it is so close to the spirit of his songs.
Every time I hear you break something down it makes me realise that just because I can play 2000 songs and memorize 200 chords I am clueless to the instrument I am playing
Congrats on the deal dont listen to the haters i know this is your job and you gotta feed the kids showcase that prs as many times as you can it looks beautiful
