No strippers, no private jets, no shiny cars/bling or million dollar studio production. A man with three dogs and a deer stand screaming a message. People are starved of authenticity and truth. That's why this song has captivated the world.
I didn't believe you guys were the elitists. A few facts on Oliver. He lives in Farmville Va. This man is standing on his own property w/ only his voice, resonator guitar and a mic. He is standing in front of his deer stand and sweating like a hog. If you listen carefully you can hear the cicadas singing. Check out his bio. He is the real deal !
Technically, we are 'represented', but so long as Corporations and Unions are allowed to donate with virtually unlimited funds, we will never have a voice in our taxation.
@@scottbradley7631I don't think people in a particular geographical location makes this any different. We are still taxed and our r voices and rights are being ignored IMO
This dude with his resonator guitar belting out an anti establishment protest anthem to his three dogs and a microphone in a field is the most punk rock thing I've ever seen.
I should have clarified more in the video what I had in mind when I said that the governent wasn't looking out for minors: They are more than okay with allowing all of the obscene sex education and gender reassignment ideals to be pushed onto kids that are too young to understand it. They're also okay with allowing pedophiles and groomers to continue to operate, more so than they are passing any legislation to ban those events / parades/ groups etc. , and helping to safeguard the kids.
He has 5 songs in the top 10 on i tunes....only 2 were recorded with a real mic and camera, the rest were recorded by him on his phone....none have any studio work , editing or special effects of any kind. He has turned down multi million dollar deals because ge wants to stay true to himself. Just him , his resonator guitar, his dogs ....outside .....making real music.
He was a regular guy 7 days ago. And 7 days later, he has about 20 million views and hes number 1 song on many diff platforms. Millions all over the world are watching his songs now. And ive watched men and woman cry. Hes gone MAJOR VIRAL. MSN is attacking him of course. He just wrote his life story on his fb page. Its public. And he turned down many record deal offers as well. He explains why. He doesnt want fame or fortune. He writes songs to help with his alcoholism and depression. Hes humble and wize and poetic. He is also very awake. He has other songs. The one called "ive gotta get sober," will haunt you. Just him sitting in the woods, on his land, with his guitar and recording himself w his phone. It is prob one of the most powerful songs ive ever heard. There are thousands of reaction videis. People are compiling clips of reactions together. He is everywhere!
"I've Gotta Get Sober" reaches to the depths of the soul I never knew existed. It's a crying out for a one last chance of hope somewhere, somehow, because the will and self control is gone. "It's a mastery of songwriting in the tradition of the masters."
@@JamesJohnson-ig6of yessss! That is the most perfect description. There's really no words to describe how raw and powerful it is. I would love to see if that song helps people and hear stories . And watch it spread accross the masses. Music. That was the way to finally reach the masses.
Anthony Oliver has an album. Rich Men North of Richmond is #1 download on ITunes and #1 country song on ITunes. In addition, he has the top 3 downloaded songs on ITunes and 4 songs in the top 10 country songs on ITunes. Yesterday he turned down an $8 Million dollar recording contract from a recording company because he doesn't want his music, or him, controlled. He is just a farmer who also works at a factory in the Appalachia who wrote a relatable song and had the guts to say the quiet parts out loud!
There is a huge difference between the good years under Trump and then the last 3 years. Wage increases are down, cost of goods is up, and the value of the dollar is down. So working people feel it - their pay won't buy what it did just a few years ago. The government always tries to fix inflation on the backs of the working class.
"young men are putting themselves six feet in the ground and all the damn country does is keep putting them down." This speaks of the suicide epidemic in our country of young men.
This song has become a global anthem. I've been binging on reaction videos for a week. I've seen hundreds of them. Even in other countries where they have had to translate this song it resonates with the masses. This is up there with the great protest songs of history. Rise up people and take your power back.
that is actually not a hubcap xD some people call it a resonator guitar but i was always used to calling it a Dobro. they were first made in 1928 and is closely associated with Appalachia and blue grass. good stuff.
I'm an old soul, 69 years old, I'm white male, I cry, seeing people from all races relating to this song, I pray, this will bring everyone together, especially at this time in our world. It's time to vote, the bad ones out, and the good ones in like Donald Trump, you know ,Trump is looking at 700 years in jail, for us, and America. We must all vote. GOD BLESS YOU ALL
It's his backyard! His guitar is a resonator acoustic. Hub cap...smh. The lyric is, "Young men putting themselves 6 feet in the ground. He has a wonderful voice and this song is extremally prescient. Here's an idea, LOOK HIM UP!!! He has quite a story.
I have to say I'm eternally grateful for RadioWV. Their discovery both brought him from obscurity to us AND saved his old soul from ruination the corporate recording-industrial complex where this song would've been Epsteined
This is the great hope for the people to wake up and make big changes with our government and the rich that have taken control of the people in stead of doing the peoples work
It is evident that this has not sunk in to You guys , yet. And that is not a hubcap on His guitar, it is a resonator guitar. Keep listening, You’ll get it. He is the real deal.
In this performance of Rich Men North of Richmond, (as well as many other performances) Oliver is playing a Gretsch G9220 Bobtail Round-neck Mahogany Body Resonator - 2-color Sunburst, Padauk Fingerboard. This appears to be his primary guitar as every performance so far he's seen playing one. $649.00
Miners/ minors Miners as in coal miners/ working class Minors .. epstein island / child atrocities/ trafficking He ecmxplaindms all the lyrics in a poat he did the day befire this song was released....while sitting in his truck ....recorded with his phone...hes the real deal...must watch!!
Right now he has 4 songs in tge too 10 on ITunes. He has already turnrd doen a $8 million record deal He is going to dedicate his life to writing songs to reach out and help people mow. This one was amazing.
Well well well….. it’s been a while. More will be coming again in the near future. Just need to start recording off our livestream. We go live just about every weekend FYI and do live requests. And for everyone telling us it’s a deer stand, yep we got it and knew it, just having some fun, also just making bad jokes about hub caps. That’s to keep it light and not so darn cookie cutter like most other reactions. That’s our dumb sense of humor take it for what it’s worth.
Yeah I was actually surprised when you said it had been a year since you posted anything, I didn't realize you weren't posting stuff from the livestreams which I'm glad you plan to do more often!
Hes just a regular guy / he has 90 acres of mostly wooded land he wants to turn into a livestock farm....he lives in a camper with a tarp for a roof. The day before this released he had only about 200 followers. He was a nobody less than 2 weeks ago. Now he has changed the world....
Great reaction U 2! This an amazing song, he's got an amazing voice (lived emotions), and a message that rings universally. Honestly, if your a person with a pulse, it’s gonna resonate. It did for me, felt this to the bone. His backstory is unbelievable too. He's saying no to the mainstream music industry. This is an expose on him with a letter he wrote to explain who/what/when (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h3tQ5Pz0fUI.html) Thanks! #OliverAnthonyMusic "Dear stand" and "Taxation is Theft" for real 🙄
"...I wish politicians would look out for miners (the working class) instead of minors on an island somewhere (protecting their own self interests)..."
The “hubcap guitar” is a Dobro, resonator guitar depending where your from and who you talk to. Blues musicians use a glass or steel slider. He is picking it.
It's a Gretsch G9220 Bobtail Resonator guitar. The metal front plate gives it that guitar/banjo sound. He's talking about coal "miners" and the "minors" on Epstein Island. The line about Fudge Rounds (which are made by Little Debbie company and are very good but 300 calories for something that will fit in the palm of your hand) is a different issue than the young men putting themselves in the ground. I think he's talking about these veterans who are struggling with lifelong injuries and PTSD and committing suicide because the Veterans Administration is totally failing them. Just look at how many of them are homeless. I'm an old lady who remembers Vietnam. Those guys were treated horribly when they got back. We're still not taking care of our vets. They have more than earn the absolute very best care there is.
I had interpreted it as looking out for the minors by banning and prohibiting the further activities of groomers and pedos etc. and actually safeguarding the kids, rather than participating in it themselves and protecting the regulars who frequent the island instead.
Your Channel looked to me intriguing, to say the least. Altho I don't usually listen to 'metal', I love many artists who set the trends in hard rock; and other genres besides. I will Subscribe to your Channel with the hope I may ask for a couple requests that, at first may not be to your liking. THANK YOU, from a half-baked singer and musician from the Northwoods of Minnesota.
Cat doesn't sound like either these guys are ever been in the woods, I grew up in the Appalachians these guys are talking about ticks and don't know what a deer stand is definitely City Boys LOL that's okay we all got to be from somewhere
