Kid Rock met Hank Williams Jr. on the set of a show called Crossroads, where they picked two artists from different genres and they sang each others songs. Kid Rock told Hank Jr. that he knew every word to every Hank Williams Sr. song. Hank Jr. didn't believe him, but he proved he did. And Hank Jr. said you know more than I do. Best friends since.
Kid Rock writes most of his songs and was also a single father and raised his son. His songs have so much meaning if you listen to the lyrics. Hope to see more Kid Rock reactions.
@@jeancoughlin5490 this an L comment. He is the only artist to go Platinum in 3 different genres of music (Hip Hop, Rock, and Country). Writes his own lyrics and even writes the actual music for alot of his music. He is the last of generation of true artists. Not like today where someone with a half decent voice shows up to a studio, sings someone else's words into a mic, and then gets their voice edited
Miss Amber, if you like Sheryl Crow you must do a Female Friday featuring Alison Krause - When you say nothing at all". You will not regret it. She is considered 'The Singer's Singer".
Never really got into Kid Rock, but the dude has talent running out of his ears...Rap, Country, Rock, etc, etc. Whew, and Ms Cheryl has got it goin on...beautiful lady.
Kid Rock was married briefly to actress Pamela Anderson. Please listen to his song All Summer Long, super fun! For more Sheryl Crow, I would go with My Favorite Mistake.
Amber, Sheryl Crow would be great for a “Female Friday” feature. Sheryl is from Kinnet, Mo, just a few miles from the eastern Missouri/Arkansas border. Her breakout song was “All I Want to do is Have Some Fun”. Some of her other songs are “Everyday is a Winding Road”, “Strong Enough”, “Tomorrow Never Dies”, and “If It Makes You Happy”. Hope I can hear you do a reaction on a Sheryl Crow song soon. She’s great and you’ll love her.
Another Sheryl Crow's favorite of mine is "the first cut is the deepest" Rod Stewart sang this version of the first cut is the deepest but prefer Sheryl Crow's version
“Cowboy “ is a MUST of Kid Rocks- And an underrated song of Sheryls that I think y’all will enjoy is called “Redemption Day.” Kid Rock is a rapper first, and also Southern rock artist- 💙💞👍✌️
Bawitdaba, Cowboy, Only God Knows Why, Lonely Road of Faith and American Bad Ass from 1999 - 2001 are all peak Kid Rock. This was 2002 and might have been the point where he started drifting more towards country.
This was Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow’s foray into country music. While they are both known for different genres, they both grew up loving country and collaborated on this song on Kid Rock’s country album.
It wasn't a "country" album. It was a single from his album "Cocky" which consisted of every genre he is known for. His country oriented album is called Born Free.
What a beautiful duet featuring 2 great artists !! I absolutely love this song. Such a display of their vocal control. So difficult to sing the quiet parts correctly !! Their harmonizing brings a tear to my eyes every time !!
Kid Rock married (and quickly divorced) Pamela Anderson. Sheryl Crow is a rocker. Kid Rock is from Detroit and started his career in rap. He's gotten into country after collaborating with Hank Williams, Jr. "Cowboy" is a great Kid Rock song to give a listen to.
"Bawitdaba" was his first huge hit. I like "Cowboy" from the same album. But I'd be surprised if you haven't heard anything from his first three albums since they were all hip hop. Sheryl Crow's "All I Wanna Do"
He's on the road, sleeping with a different woman every night in a hotel. She's at home (or wherever) has a side guy (maybe a new guy) to fill the emptiness in her soul. The look Crow gives him in the studio is intense, in a good way.
For some reason I always interpreted her comment as being in reference to their (the two characters) son. I have no idea why I got that vibe, but I think there was a video out there once where it showed a kid.
Sheryl played saxophone, I believe in high school. She went to Missouri university where she got her degree in music (vocal music and has a beautifully trained operatic voice). After she graduated from MIZZOU she taught 1yr in a St. Louis suburb school before heading for LA when she got that gig with MJ as one of his backup singers…helluva start to a music career (says a nowhere but local musician).
Another fun fact : Sheryl Crow worked as the producer of the Stevie Nicks cd Trouble In Shang Gris La and the two of them turned "Sorcerer" (a Buckingham Nicks tune) into a duet where they are both singing and playing acoustic guitar.
@@descendantoffools9767 Fun story.... My company was short on cameramen and grip-boys. So we put out a massive effort for interviews. I wound up, driving from LA to Minneapolis, with a wanna be gangster idiot in my backseat who, during the first 5 minutes of the trip, started singing "Soak Up the Sun"when it came on the radio. Then he called his female friend cursing her out for his facebook page being hacked, smashed his window, and then told me I was the most beautiful woman he ever saw. I am not only a Witch, but I am a Republican. Never saw a gang-banger run so fast.. Was the it the .45, or was it.......? Crazy boy singing "Soak Up The Sun" in the back seat of a Republican Witch. How can this beautiful couple not react to this song?
Kid Rock is friends with Hank Williams Jr. Kid Rock has written a lot of country songs that he said that he will record once his Rock days are behind him.
Alison Krause to my ears is best for mountain music. If you want to the best version of ‘When you say Nothing at all’ listen to Keith Whitley. All of Mr. Whitley’s music is good. He passed way too young. ✌🏽
I had never listened to Kidd Rock or Cheryl Crow before this song came out. Let me just say Kidd Rock can sing. He proves it in this song where he changes yes to sing in Cheryl Crow’s key and absolutely nails. This song is Kidd Rocks biggest hit. It topped the country charts. They did another duet called “Collide”. It also is this same southern rock/country genre
When Kid Rock started out, he was a rapper. Then he evolved into southern rock and country. If you want to see a good rap song by him, check out Devil Without A Cause.
When this song first came out, it was a very memorable time in my life. And everytime i hear it my mind goes back to revisit those moments in time. RIP Sam.
From the time this song came out until at least the end of the 2000's it was in VERY heavy rotation on Karaoke night at bars, during the 00's I would occasionally take my staff to one bar or another to celebrate an exceptional night at work (I'm a retired exec chef) and sometimes those nights landed on karaoke night. I haven't heard the song in several years now (I don't drink or go to bars anymore) but my reaction to hearing it again in this video is a combination of good song and cringing from the memories of sheer repetition by couples that varied wildly in ability
Sheryl Crowe is a very talented musician. Was a long time backup singer in the industry before she got her big break. Along with being a great singer she can play multiple instruments. My Favorite Mistake is a great song by her.
I feel like when this song came out the “80’s” hair band rocker fans were growing up and moving into country music. Country music in the 90s felt more like bluesy rock. Like it’s audience was growing up, they still liked guitars and drums they just wanted more substance. While grunge was good and we still liked it, country music had more soul. I was a 80s hair band and pop music girl. I personally stayed with enjoying grunge longer than many of my friends who were transitioning to country music. Then I met my husband… at a bar. He was wearing a cowboy hat and boots. I was still dating my “grunge boyfriend” at the time although it was a very rocky relationship. As soon as I met that cowboy I knew he was my life partner. My husband LOVES 70s and 80s rock but as the 90s approached much like a lot of us he transitioned to 90s country. This particular song was a crossover and played on both country, pop and rock stations. As grunge took over rock you would see several hair band artist dabbing into country.
I've seen Kid Rock in concert 3 times and each time was the best shows I've ever been to. He was doing shows for $25 seats anywhere in the stadium, because he knows how hard it is for people to afford concert tickets these days.
@@MsJenny813 my daughter wanted to go with us when she was 12 then again when she was 14. He only comes around our area every 2 years or so. He came back when she was 16 but it was on a Thursday night and my husband and I had to work. So we didn't get to go. Now she's 19, so hopefully the next time he comes around we'll be able to make it.
I don't think I ever told either of my parents, but both my mom and dad said this song reminded them of the other. They separated when I was 5, but even 15 years later, my mom told me she should have changed for Dad. She went to her grave loving him. He followed her, cancer, some years later, and he told me it was always special to have me close, a part of mama who was with him to the very end. He wasn't my biological father, but was there from day 1. It still guts me to hear this song and think that their love never really went away. They never healed from losing the other. I'm 10 years married to my husband and strive every day to make whatever positive changes I need to in order to avoid that pain they felt. Not to put it off, because even one day too long and I could lose him. That would devastate me.
For the fun side of Kid Rock..... "ALL SUMMER LONG".... it was a HUGE cross-over hit like this one!!! It's REALLY fun and a perfect tribute to many of our teen years!! ;) ;)
You guys are my absolute FAVORITE reaction channel. And trust me, since Covid hit I’ve been watching a lot of them lol. Every single reaction is on point. Y’all are both very intelligent, musically rounded, and obvi love what you’re doing. Y’all are amazing together, love how you interact with one another! You guys remind me of myself and my husband:). I also love that y’all are still doing music too. Too many reaction channels seem to start w/ music and then before you know it they turn political and leave the music behind. I’m so glad you haven’t done that w/ your channel. We all need more music in our lives. Please keep doing what you’re doing. You guys are awesome!!!!
Kid Rock is one of my all-time favorites when I was a kid I used to listen to Only God Knows Why and as I got older he came out with Born Free. Also his All Summer Long is a huge hit so yeah highly recommend all his songs and great reaction video guys. Keep it up 👍❤️👍
The kid was married to Pamela Anderson... Short fling and he doesn't even want to talk about it. I don't blame him. He's a great guy and entertainer. He has been to the White House several times.
Kid Rock started as a dj and rapper in Detroit. He was hardcore! Check him out at Woodstock 99. This is a total 180 for him. He wrote this. His record company and mananagement told him thatbtjis would bury his career. It went to number one on country and pop charts.
What is this revisionist history? This song peaked at 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and 21 on the Hot Country Charts. It was popular and it's definitely his best song, but it was nowhere near a number 1 hit.
First time seeing your reaction to this song. But one thing I can tell you from having listened to Kid Rock is I'm pretty sure he's capable of singing anything. He does have a good voice.
Kid Rock is amazing! I have never seen another artist since Elvis be able to cross genres and make it work. If you ever get a chance to see Kid Rock live go see him. He puts on an amazing show. My boyfriend and I have seen him twice now in concert. And he doesn't charge out the rear end for his tickets they're $20 a person. He believes in letting people have cheap tickets so they still have money in their pockets to be able to live on and pay their bills. And each city that he plays in that has a children's hospital he donates the proceeds from his show to the children's hospitals. Not many artists would do that.
@@michaelb.3982 It is a nod to Skynyrd but he wrote it about his youth/"coming of age" and growing up in Michigan. Hence the line: "It was Summertime in Northern Michigan".... I grew up during the same time period as Kid Rock and had a very similar existence/experience in my teen years.... So much so that I could've written every single word of every line in that song. And Lynyrd Skynyrd's music was a part of it, so Kid was simply giving a "nod" to them!! :)
I don't know if he had permission but it's also ripped off of an earlier song "Warewolves of London" same exact music behind it. It's a classic rock song. I know it has special meaning for a lot of y'all so not gonna rain on your parade it's just not for me. I was in love with that man early in his career. Saw him at music midtown perform right before his career took off. He was standing on the side stage watching Ben Harper before he went on. Bawitdaba video had just hit. Once he flipped to country he got sloppy looking to me and can't stand the attitude with it. Still look back fondly on who I thought he was. Well I damn sure never expected what I've seen since. I do love this song with these two though for sure but it also represents a really bad time in my life when my about to be ex husband at the time came over "because it came on the radio" I had moved out because it got so bad. He was the only one that had a her he was lying next to tho.
I get emotional and cry every time I hear this song. my brother and I used to go to karaoke and he and a mutual friend used to sing this song. in 2014 he took his own life and I will never hear his beautiful voice again so that's why it gets to me when I hear it. its a beautiful song with a personal connection.
I love kid rock, both versions, his rap music is cool but I love this version the most. Strongly suggest "All Summer Long", "Born Free: and "First Kiss" Awesome!!
She did an amazing benefit concert in Springfield Mo that I got to see. Her cousin was dying of cancer and he and his wife wanted to start an non profit as his legacy. She was so classy, helping them kick it off!
Funny Sheryl Crow story.... There uesd to be a venue in San Diego called "4th & B". Started out as a downtown "upscale" bank back when they made swanky banks. It's was converted to an intimate single stage venue with some balcony seating. Worst seats in the house were only about 25 yards from the stage. My buddy Bret (name not changed for maximum ribbage) was crazy about Sheryl Crow and ends up seeing one of her shows at 4th & B. Bret's dancing and singing along and suddenly throws his head back like he's going to howl at the lights. At the very second, the band stops playing and Bret yells out at the top of his lungs "I LOVE YOU, SHERYL!!". To his ever lasting enjoyment, she laughingly calls back "I LOVE YOU TOO!!". Not my buddies most embarrassing moment by any stretch, but probably his finest.
This is very different from the 'normal' Kid Rock. Never was a huge fan until this song. SMILE my friends ! 😊❤🎵 Definitely check out Sheryl Crow for female Friday - "The First Cut is the Deepest" - there are SO many !
Kid Rock is one of those artists that people either love or hate - there's no in between. And yeah - he is a bit of an asshat, but he is so underrated as an artist. He plays many different instruments. He can spit some bars, sing rock, sing country, and southern rock! I live in the Detroit area and I go to every live show I can. They're just a huge party!
yup just like Cilantro 🌿 some love it but to me it tastes like dish soap. I don’t hate Kid Rock I just don’t like him,but I recognize he had talent. I’m not really into country music except for Willie,Waylon,Hank,Merl,and I have to admit David Alan Coe
Even better I think is Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow singing "Collide " which I think shows off their chemistry together, not to mention that its a really good song. Definitely check it out.
Kid Rock ROCKS!!!!!!, There is so much to hear from him. Over so many genres. He started in Rap, then he did Rock and after that tackled Country and even has songs with Hank Williams Jr.
Kid Rock head banging The Patriot we the people he goes all out love Sheryl Crow love kid Rock doing this quiet sit down performance been my favorite for several years I should reaction guys later
"Picture" is a duet written by American music artists Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow, released on November 12, 2002..... This is a great Sheryl song to check out...
Kid Rock had a long-ish relationship with Pamela Anderson. Tommy Lee’s ex-wife and baby momma. Kid Rock is from Detroit btw. I have recommended Sheryl before for Female Friday so please do her now.
Have family that hung with him on the lake. He grew up in Detroit, Michigan...He visits a lot. That's why he sang the very popular...All summer long! If I remember right it was filmed on the lake in Michigan. Another slow but awesome songs is Only God Knows Why!!! For grittier ones you'll never be able to put on station is...So Hott, You Never Met a Motherfu**er Like Me & Lowlife. I think Amber would like...Blue Jeans and a Rosary & Roll On. He has an amazing catalog of songs!!
I can't say Kid Rock is southern rock considering he'sfrom the Detroit area and a large majority of his songs are rap...if you want Southern rock, go with 38 Special or Lynyrd Skynrd or Molly Hatchet!
Kid Rock transitioned from doing rap to doing Bob Seger styled rock with southern influence Some popular Kid Rock songs that people are counting as southern rock is "All Summer Long" "First Kiss" "Johnny Cash" "Born Free" "Only God Knows Why".
@RobSquad I absolutely LOVE watching your reaction videos!! I’ve been an inner Cory high school teacher on the west coast for 20 years and just moved to the Midwest to teach in a small town and I’ve used music to connect with ALL of my high school kids!! It warms my heart that you two are young teachers and so into exploring music! You both have a bright future ahead of you!!
