Love the song, not a fan of country but this slaps. Anyone notice that Rhett is in the house office that they pained the walls to look like their skin, eyes and hair lol.
Well. I didn't expect to be tearing up right now but here I am listening to Rhett singing about a topic that's also very personal to me while wearing a shirt of my late brother's favorite artist.
I grew up Pentecostal Christian until I was 11. I get angry sometimes feeling like a huge part of my.childhood was taken by the church and this song hits really really close to home. I think we all deal with deconstructing our faith differently and music was a huge one for me.
I haven't liked a country song since the 90s. But this song sounds like an L.A. sunset, vibing at a backyard garden party having cocktails with your closest friends. Your pain has made a beautiful piece of art. I'm so proud of you Rhett. 🧡
Yeah this is my type of country music. After the mid 2000s where everything kinda turned to country pop I stopped listening. It’s safe to say for me that George Strait and Rhett may be my favorite country artists lol
I hope Rhetts great music helps put more people onto country. People who have to declare preemptively they “aren’t into country” I think would appreciate a lot of the good country that’s out there in the form of Waylon Jennings, Songs: Ohia and Jason Molina, Bill Callahan, Jason Isbell, and so much more. There truly is some beautiful, beautiful country out there. It isn’t just people singing about cold beers and tractors!
@@ItsJustJessOkay It isn't written as a convo with god, but a convo with people about leaving the church. I think. And him saying they don't have to agree, but asking for their love and support because he is doing this for himself because he has questions that aren't being answered.
I really resonate with Rhett's deconstruction story. I feel it deep in my bones and I just feel so seen and comforted by this whole album. I get it. He gets it. The hurt of leaving knowing the judgement you'll have to face is really difficult- especially when it's friends and family that are judging you. I am so proud of him. This album is healing.
This entire album hit me in the pit of my soul. Every song brought me to tears. I just turned 35, and have been deconstructing since 8, though didn’t realize it until 13, and fought it until I was about 27-28. The trauma from the repeated mental and emotional abuse and brainwashing, has been a nightmare at the best of times. I have appreciated every second of this album from someone I look up to and admire. Thank you so much, Rhett. I’ve been sitting in this dark room for a long time. I thought I was alone, truth is, so many of us are in this room, and we’re not alone. This album has brought me peace and rest.
Man I've been waiting on Rhett to do something like this. He'll post little shorts like this on his Instagram of him singing old country songs, and it always sounds fantastic. I'm glad I can get ready to listen to a whole album's worth soon, because this is great! Also, I think Link is a damn good singer too, he just hasn't been putting stuff out there as much as Rhett has, so my mind usually goes to him. Other than the comedy songs they do together of course, I'm just talking about these country songs that are on the serious side.
Rhett is always so busy with all his work projects for mythical that it doesn’t seem possible that he could pull this off in his spare time, but he has something special here, amazing talent!
I always say acoustic versions are the best. Nothing to hide behind nothing but the words and the melody. This is really good Rhett, keep it up buddy!!
So many comments like “I’m not even a country fan”…..I can hear the twang in R’s voice but I wouldn’t even classify this as a country song imo. Such a great ballad I love it…..and I’m also not a country fan
I don't want to sound sappy or like my opinion matters, but man something about seeing Rhett continuing to follow his dreams makes my heart swell with joy for him. Seeing him on GMM as a fan to making music, idk it's just so nice and I love seeing the guys happy. And his voice, man such a good voice too! I really hope this goes great for Rhett!
