Pike county woman here! This is our anthem 100%. The hollers have the hardest working people there is but Jesus the pills…There’s not a single soul here that doesn’t get it. Love you guys!
You should start a new category on the channel playlist titled glass,what glass?Those are for the ones so good you forgot to pick up the glass during the song.
I adore Tyler Childers’ music because it’s so simple, and I got into it when I started getting into Appalachian music, southern gothic music, and in the same vein as Colter Wall, Brandi Carlisle, The Civil Wars, The Crane Wives, Zach Bryan, etc. some of whom, you have listened to on the channel. He’s got such a unique voice with that cry in it, and most of his songs are either this style with just a guitar and his voice, some have a band behind him but those songs are typically the more upbeat ones so it works. My personal favorites are Feathered Indians, Lady May, Whitehouse Road, Tattoos, Coal, and Follow You To Virgie.
This song hooked me into Tyler Childers, it's the first of his songs that I had ever heard and I was instantly hooked. I'm a Florida boy born and raised and spent five years living up in West Jefferson North Carolina and working in the white top mountains of Virginia. And this song just crushed me when I heard it. That instantly led me to his music feathered Indians and purgatory and I've been a fan ever since
This was the first song I heard by him. It is amazing. It reminds me of sitting on the porch in the summer listening to relatives sing in the summer heat and runnin round in the hills. I had to go listen to more of him and check out other people reacting to it. The most recent song to give me the extreme need to hear it again is The Mocking Bird and The Crow by Hardy. Loved your reaction.
I found you guys about a week ago and have been binging your videos ever since. I am getting jealous watching you guys getting to hear these songs for the first time :-) I am a little surprised that you guys have not checked out Sturgill Simpson yet. He is right up your alley... great voice, great content, and great musician. Check out 'You Can Have the Crown' live sessions. I think you will enjoy it. He actually is good friends with Tyler Childers and produced his album 'Country Squire'. Thanks for the great content;)
I love songs that can get to the point without a lot of production and drama. One person with a guitar singing their heart. I love music that honors hard working blue collar people.💙
Great reaction. Tyler Childers has some really good stuff. Another one that has great lyrics is Jason Isbell... I really like his song "Speed Trap Town".
Just recently started listening to Tiler Childers when I watched the concert Chris Stapleton held here in Lexington, KY for the eastern KY flood relief.He keeps growing on me.This song in particularly is right down my alley.🥰
I think part of this song was featured on an episode of’Yellowstone’. I liked it so much, checked it out on RU-vid. It’s on my playlist now! I’ve discovered so many great artists & songs as part of tv soundtracks
Loved that song. Great reaction. I’ve actually watched your reaction and the song three times because I loved it so much. I have no connection to that described area in the US and still the song grabbed me. The whiskey sounds tasty as well.
Why are all the best songs so short?! I love this song, I loved your reaction. This is a freaking anthem for all of us struggling. I know this is more for the hard working man, but working in social care...I still connect. Very much.
Such an amazing song. It summarizes a way of life for so many people! The line that really hit me this time was "there's hurt you can cause time alone cannot heal." It's so true. I also confuse Tyler Childers and Colter Wall! The voices are quite different, but the style and song writing is very similar. They did an AMAZING collaboration on a song called "Fraulein" that I'd love for you to check out!
The music industry wants to call it Americana, the country music industry wants to ignore them, but Tyler says he’s 100% country. He won best new artist at the Americana awards a few years back. His speech was kinda crazy and he said “Americana ain’t no part of nothing.” He gets offended at the Americana label. The pop country sound is what pulls everyone away from wanting to call it country. I like to think of it as Neotraditional Country. New classic, if that makes sense.
Pretty much anything Tyler does is gold. This music genre is called "Americana" music. Probably why we don't hear it on Country Music Radio. Check out more from that genre.
As someone who's lived in Pike County , Ky for the majority of my life and the wife of a coal miner this song hits home... Tyler Childers is golden...Thanks for the review!
This song is very powerful. Much of my family come from Northwest Arkansas and let's just say that the Ozarks share much of the same issues as the extreme rural hill country places farther east. I think Tyler and Sturgill Simpson have become the voice of all of us hillbillies.
tyler childers is the real deal...love his music. Have you guys tried the White Buffalo? Another amazing musician. im gonna have to find some bourbon to bribe you with for some white buffalo. Whats the liquor store near you that i can buy something for you guys? Yall menti9oned it in another video and i cant find it.
Yeah, the whole time hearing this song I was thinking of eastern Kanawha, Boone, Logan, Mingo, Wayne... just, all of southern WV in particular. And I hope you're right. - Keith
I stumbled onto Tyler a year or so ago. He speaks truth with his music. Awhile back I noticed this thing called reaction videos. I love the concept but I wanted something country because that’s what I was raised up on. I really enjoy the way you review. You let the whole song play pretty much and then discuss instead stop start over and over. I just like your style and your friendship. Music has always been my go to when I have problems. My oldest daughter passed away 2 months ago. I’m not working so I’m home alone. When I get to the point that I need something else to think about I come here and watch you guys until I get my shit back together so I can go on with my day. Thank You truly.
@@BourbonCountryReacts I enjoy you and your friendship. It’s part of what makes it so fun to listen to and watch. My family was like that. My Dad was always telling jokes and making us laugh.
This is my kind of my music...a man and his guitar singing about real life stuff. This is bourbon drinking music. I really enjoy Tyler and Jamey Johnson's music. I can throw Jason Isbell in that group as well.
you're the first reactor that I've seen with this song that actually gets it like I did. Tyler is amazing and it's so awesome to see real music and a real message in country again. Life is hard in the hollers but the people are amazing. I haven't been back in over a decade but when I heard this song I was right back there. Another one he does that really shows the real of Appalachia is Hard Times
My people are from Russell Springs. The song is just hauntingly beautiful. He has a unique sound. Just awesome! Hey guys, drink a couple for me tonight, I'm still on alcohol restriction, but I turned 50 today.
That's what I call ...MOUNTAIN...62 year old former marine from south carolina..MOUNTAIN s..of south carolina..all my people from smokey mountains..border of Tennessee..MOUNTAIN folk...we got a different feel from others..thanks guys..
Lol! So Keith doesn't even care about his glass of bourbon while listening to this song! Lol! I'm a country music fan and I have never heard this song, & I loved it too! #WayToGoTylerChilders
Great reaction to an awesome (new to me song), such a heavy message and anthem is a good word for it, fits Caryville TN perfectly. The video reminds me of Jamey Johnson's In Color. If that glass is pregnant, you will be a $$$$wealthy man.
I'm from England, and I saw Tyler just before the pandemic in a packed club in Nottingham, and despite how specific most of his songs are to where he's from everyone could relate and loved it! You're right that people will be listening to him in 100 years, he's one of the best and most important songwriters around right now.
Great Reaction again... I know that most people haven't heard of Logan Halstead, in fact I'm willing to bet that I'm the only one mentioning him, but he is a great young artist from the coal belt. You need to add Dark Black Coal and Coal River from Logan to your playlist.
@@BourbonCountryReacts The other songs from the same session are great too. Follow you to Virgie and a killer version of Whitehouse Road. It hits very different on just the acoustic.
I call this genre Appalachian Folk. There are a few artists I think fit: Seth Anthony Jimmy Rose Morgan Wallen Sturgil Simpson(might be the reincarnation of Waylon Jennings) Colter Wall(who I firmly believe wss fathered by Johnny Cash) Warren Zeiders Hunter Price Larry Fleet Chayce Beckham Kolton Moore
