The Dead South - You Are My Sunshine (Reaction) 

Hey guys. The original song was done in major chords whereas the DS plays it in A minor. This is a Depression era song. It's also a Prison song about a guy in stir only having this memory of this woman to keep him going. He has nothing but this memory and a Dear John letter would leave him with nothing. The use of the Cello is brilliant in enveloping us with the feeling of terrible sadness and loneliness. Thanks guys. Stay safe

They used the real lyrics, but most people sing it all cheerful and happy, and skip out the VERSES, and just sing the chorus, alone. It's a heart-broken song, sang as happy-go-lucky love song, and THIS VERSION ROCKS!

These guys are so good. I stumbled on this song a couple weeks ago....then i had to go and binge a ton of their music. Also, I am pretty sure these are the original lyrics

I never thought I could hear something my mother would sing to me as a child could turn this dark. I love it though, I thought it was amazing.

1940's original lyrics from Jimmie Davis. TDS turned it into a threat and it's amazingly wonderful and dark.

You'd get a good laugh out of "banjo odyssey"

This is an amazing cover. It’s haunting.

Thanks for all the county song uploads I’m loving them.

You want messed up and sad. Try the original version of My Darling Clementine

It sounded like anguish expressed through gritted teeth. He's hurting because she's taking his sunshine away.

2 points. The song is the original lullaby, it's about a guy in prison whose wife said she'd wait for him, but didn't. And if you notice the entire video was filmed in one continuous shot.

Amazing how this version makes you listen to the words and think. We all assumed it was a fun song. It never was.

One of the worst "stalker" song is the Monkees Mary Mary. Luv to see reaction video.

It's about a man in prison who gets a "dear john" letter from his wife who had promised to wait for him!

"Men have a shitty response to heart break". Truer words have never been spoken.

Yall need to hear "In hell id be good company"

The visual was more impressive as it was a single continuous shot.

A lot of nursery rhymes are dark af at their core.

Love The Dead South

This is dark song a-f. Dunno why people sing it like it is some fun, light song.

Check out Banjo Odyssey!!!

Black Lung is an awesome song as well

Listen to “Black Lung” by these guys. Crazy talented. They will show up on SNL soon.

My Grandmother would sing this to me as a child while playing the ukulele. She would sing it soooo sadly. She did it legit.

This is johnny cash's version. I can't say if it's'nursery ryme' original but Johnny did these lyrics also

Their music always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

They are actually singing the nursery sing we thought was happy was a sad meaning behind it.

Yes it is
