They both have killer guitar 🎸 skills, and wonderful vocals on top of it. A song by Keith Urban you all should check out (it's a slow one but beautiful) is "Blue Ain't your Color". I have always considered Keith a country artist, but he can be placed within many genre's (bluegrass, pop, southern rock). Spot on reaction!
The think with Kieth urban is every song sounds the same. If ya heard one the rest are the same rifs, beats no tempo. I know he got more in him but he sticks to the known rather than venturing out.
The guitar pic falling in wasn't scripted, Keith said he thought it was funny so they left it in. Great reaction guys! you guys are great! This is one of my favorite accounts! Always happy when I see a new reaction
@@BourbonCountryReacts Keith, don't give up! My boyfriend practices like 3 to 5 times a week, and he's getting better. He uses an app that is kinda like the guitar hero game. I'd love to see a video of you playing some time..
This was awesome and so glad you finally reacted to it. Brad and Keith are best friends and spent a lot of time just jamming on their guitars, and generally have a good time. This song was just a good time and showcasing their guitar skills. And Brad Paisley could be a stand up comedian if he ever decided he didn't want to sing anymore, which God hopes he doesn't. Great reaction.
Right On! Love ya caught to Keith’s love of doing tributes! You would totally “nerd out” with how technical Keith is, for example, he goes from plucking to picking so fast, you almost miss it.
There’s a video of a bunch of rock guitarists (and Brad Paisley) playing the Game of Thrones theme. When it was Brad’s turn to solo, the guy next to him looks over like “holy crap, didn’t expect that.” Worth a look.
They did this song live on an awards program and you can see them playing their parts. It’s worth a watch for sure. Both the guys can rip up the neck of the guitar. It is impressive to watch.
One guitarist to add to the AMAZING players in Country is Vince Gill. During one of his concerts, many years ago, my dad (a keyboard/Hammond B organ player) and I spent more time watching Vince's guitar tuner prep his next guitar from his box of 20.
If you guys wanna see one of the coolest things thats ever happened during a live show, find the video of Keith Urban calling an 18yr old kid out of the crowd stage because of the sign he and his girlfriend were holding.....crazy good guitar!!! The video is all over RU-vid
Being from WV, you GOTTA check out his two new videos, The Medicine Will and Son of the Mountains. Both were shot in my home county (Fayette). Killer songs and videography.
Omg yes! The employees at guitar center watch you like a hawk when you pick up a guitar. LOL I don't know how to play, but I bought my ex one for his birthday many moons ago, but in the 6 years we were together I feel like I lived at guitar center. They knew me by name. LOL I can't remember if I've already requested this, but another really fun song is Chris Young and Kane Brown - Famous Friends.
Ticks and a few others of Paisley’s like The World have that Money for Nothing sound and it sounds badass mixed in a country song. Also, gotta love the nod to Stairway in the intro…this song is a guitar player’s wet dream. Pure style, skill, harmonies, etc. Incredible.
As a guy who re-started his 50 year guitar lessons after 30 years off, I really appreciate the line “learning the guitar for 30 years.” At 73, it’s a hell of fun. :)
Keith grew up playing in the clubs and pubs in Australia, cover bands playing top 40 radio songs and heavily influenced by the big rock bands going around Australia at the time. Also a upbringing on American country music and he is also a sponge for anything music and can turn his hand to most genres. He is very versitile. Mark Knopfler was also one of his influences.
If you want to hear some Keith, who really is a country artist, find the award show version (it's actually the first time it was introduced) of "Highway Don't Care". It's Tim McGraw/Taylor Swift/Keith Urban. I am not a Taylor Swift fan, but definitely Keith and Tim! (and Home Free!!)
It would be great to see y’all react to a great collaboration! Tim McGraw - Highway Don’t Care (Live from CMA or ACM) It features Taylor Swift and…Tim asked Keith to not only play on the song, but to create the guitar melody. Keith is a must see live!
If you want to see some of Keith Urbana’s best guitar work check out the Stupid Boy live video. He literally shreds the guitar afterward in an impressive solo
You guys would enjoy Keith's 'You'll think of me' also. Lots of guitar work. It's 20 years old, back before he married Nicole Kidman. One of his biggest hits.
I have to watch this video every time it pops up on my feed. Partly because of the song, but mostly to watch Keith’s reaction. Each time I catch something different. I just realized the difference in their styles is like Phil Collen and Steve Clark (RIP) of Def Leppard. They’re not there to match, they’re there to contrast but come together. And have fun doing so. Cheers!
I was a fan of Paisley for years before I saw him live and I had no idea the caliber of guitarist that he is but when he played some Hendrix riffs it blew me away. As far as country guitarist go there are few better then the legendary Guitar Man Jerry Reed. Watch his 'Guitar Medley' to see perfection. Roy Clark and Glenn Campbell are two other great Country guitarists. Watch them do an instrumental of 'Ghost Riders In The Sky' for another excellent performance.
Love the song, I'm glad you got to see and hear 2 of countries great guitarist. They are both incredible musicians. Brad also has a song with Carrie remind me, another great song. Chris Stapleton is also incredible on the guitarist.
Junior Brown is a country guitarist with amazing talent. He is the co-inventor of the 'Guit-Steel' double neck guitar which has an electric guitar on the upper neck and a lap steel guitar on the bottom neck. Check out his 'Surf Medley' to see his picking skills in action.
I’m enjoying your travels through country music, but to get the full effect you need to react to David Allen Coe and the song You Never Even Called Me By My Name. It has some subtle impersonations, real country twang, and a killer last verse. Give it a shot and you’ll like it!
When Paisley was 12, he caught the attention of the program director of a radio station in nearby Wheeling, who invited him to perform on Jamboree USA, the station’s long-running live country music program. For the next eight years he polished his act as a regular on the show. In 1991 Paisley enrolled at West Liberty State College in West Liberty, West Virginia; he later transferred to Belmont University in Nashville, where he earned (1995) a bachelor’s degree in music business.
The first Keith Urban song I ever heard was "You'll Think Of Me" and I still think it's his best. I'd put him a little more toward pop than country, from what I've heard from him.
You picked up on the Money For Nothing reference in the first verse. Not sure if you noticed the guitar riff references in the second verse that Brad does. If you listen close in between Keith's vocals, Brad makes reference to Smoke on the Water, Layla and Sweet Child of Mine.
I definitely heard the Layla riff, but didn't want to interrupt the song to call it out. I also heard the Deep Purple reference, but may have missed the Sweet Child of Mine one. But yeah, I heard the Clapton and Knopfler tributes in the guitars. - Keith
This is a link to Keith's Living Right Now concert that he did in LA. One of the very best concert videos - I have ever seen. His guitar playing skills are just a master class. Hope you enjoy Keith Urban - Livin' Right Now - Live in L.A. December 14th/15th 2004 - RU-vid
LOVED WARCHIN KEITH'S REACTION FYI MR. URBAN IS AUSTRALIAN AN CREDITS Mark Knopfler AND LINDSEY STER LING AS HKS GREATEST INFLUENCES [I WAS CURIOUS SO GOOGLED IT]
For amazing playing from Brad and his whole band, listen to The Nervous Breakdown, an instrumental song from his first album. Also, on RU-vid, Time Warp from Live on Letterman.
If you have any doubts as to Brad's guitar skills (spoiler alert: he can Play), Time Warp will remove them. As a bonus, the rest of the band all get a chance to shine as well. The steel guitar in particular is amazing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tHlmYlwUKHU.html
This was on a Brad Paisley album where all the rest of the songs were instrumental only. This was the only song with singing on the album from what I have heard. I don't actually buy albums.
I disagree. I'm an old school pure country fan, but I recognize that country music isn't the sound but the singer. I think that's why country has so much diversity in the sound. I have no problem with those that add the sub genre tag and no problem with those that don't. I know I sound like I'm trying to placate everybody, but I really believe that country is so much more than 3 cords and the truth.
Been with y’all since the beginning and visit this video often. As a guitar lover it does bother me that KU has not gotten more listens. The absolute beauty of his playing would be so appreciated! His influences are all OG’s of Country. Unfortunately, The Fighter is off an album the was produced by Niles Roger thus, the pop. Keith never stays in a box, never pressured by labels.
I would love to see you guys react to some Dan and Shay, "Speechless" or "I should have stayed in bed" or Bret Young "I don't want to write this song" or "Mercy" or "Lady" or "Catch". They're both awesome country singers/duos.
Let's put it like this: There are people from the deep south that play country, but then you got Keith Urban that is so deep-deep-deep south, he's from a different hemisphere (since he's Australian). 🤣
I still say that if you want a Master class and guitar players look at Roy Clark Buck Owens and Glen Campbell they are all they were all virtuosos on guitar it was amazing
I keep waiting for you guys to get into some good stuff. That's an overstatement, perhaps, but a good 75% of the things you guys are reacting to are super fluffy, formulaic commercial songs they play on shitty modern mainstream radio for casual music fans who want easily digestible "music" with no substance. There are many legitimately incredible artists out there. I like your Tyler Childers, Chris Stapleton, Jamey Johnson, and Colter Wall videos (and a few older artists, too). I wish you would go down those roads more often. Here are a few suggestions: Sturgill Simpson "You Can Have the Crown / Some Days" (Live at Sun King Brewery), Cody Jinks "Mercy" (A new song he wrote to Nashville and the "country" music industry for blackballing artists with substantive music), Ward Davis "Good and Drunk" (The most three-chord-and-the-truth country song you'll ever hear), Josh Morningstar "Jerry Lee" (A song about crazy-ass Jerry Lee Lewis. Pure perfection), Jason Isbell "Elephant" (He's probably the greatest songwriter of this generation), John Moreland "You Don't Care Enough for Me to Cry" (The only songwriter that can challenge Isbell to that title). There are many more, but this is off the top of my head. I challenge you guys to pick any one of these at random. If your jaws don't hit the floor, then it's just not your cup of tea. However, if you're going on a country music/country adjacent journey, at least mix in some of these wildly popular independent/non-mainstream artists and songwriters and give them a chance. It's crazy how I can go see these guys in a packed 20K seat theater, but I can't ever find them on the radio. Sad, I know, but that's probably why you don't know about them. I know you guys are just beginning to go down this country rabbit hole, so I thought this may help. Anyway, it's just a thought.
Added two votes for Jason's tune you suggested. Remember we know nothing about Country and react to the songs our views request. I track every request meticulously and the highest votes go to the top when we record, unless we are sent bourbon. -Dustin
Got an Isbell coming your way. It's not Elephant, although that would be most people's first reccomendation. But it not their bribe 😆. I chose one of my favorites. He is one of the best lyricists I've ever heard in my life. The other one I sent is because I know you like strong female vocals and I thought you would appreciate the harmonies. Hope you enjoy. ☺
They're both married to actresses. Brad Paisley to Kimberly Williams Paisley (Father of the Bride) and Keith Urban to Nicole Kidman. Watch the video of Brad and Carrie performing Remind Me. Also check out Chet Atkins, Roy Clark, Vince Gill and Ricky Skaggs.
Keith wants to do that one very badly, unfortunately we've both heard it and we try to stick to first time reactions, unless we get bribed with Bourbon. -Dustin
Where are you in Indiana? I’m in southeastern Indiana and we have MGP distillery the old Seagrams distillery here In lawrenceburg. They make a lot of specialty and private label stuff.
They won an award for this song and when they went up to accept they told everybody that they should learn to play the guitar because "nobody ever got laid playing Guitar Hero."
Willie played center field short and always made those catches at the wall Keith (425 feet). The Giants were in NYC then and I watched the world series in 1954. I was six years old and was lucky enough to see Willie make the catch, and more importantly he spun around and threw the ball to second base to stop the leading run from scoring because he had to tag up. The arm is all important in your game Keith. Willie was second only to Babe Ruth on most records. Babe was a good pitcher when he played for the Red Sox. Another reason for a good arm. He could hold two hotdogs in each hand too. I stop watching and following baseball when they went on strike. I still think Willie Mays was one the greatest ball players ever & no corruption!@@BourbonCountryReacts
@@davidjennings1771 I quit watching at the strike too. But a couple of years ago, something dawned on me. No player today was on a roster back then. So, besides auto/moto racing, baseball is the only sport I'll watch. - Keith
Very true about all new players, so I went all in on following football. I had always liked motor sports including cycles. Moonshine running had cost me an uncle. I had come out of the Lynchburg VA area where rte.'s 460, 501, & 29 join. Nascar was in my blood so to speak. Living in the shadow of Mount Katahdin I'm a hillbilly again. I just don't live the lifestyle anymore. I still miss beer and whisky. Asbestos & chemical defoliant's cost me part of a lung, beer & bourbon. It gave this army engineer 100% military comp. Uncle Sam could have given it up when I was younger. I'm rambling again....@@BourbonCountryReacts
Hope you enjoyed it but for your own enjoyment watch the live version...his guitar work is impeccably good ( a great solo). You don't have to react but listen to it sometime. You should also listen to the 2015 CMA mash up of Tennessee Whiskey & Drink Me Away by Chris Stapleton & Justin Timberlake.
Rewatch this clip and you could write a country song out of your review called I don't want a wang in my nose.Heads up when you do Blues not your color is a tribute to the ladies.It played on cross over radio.Sometimes distilleries have country concerts
You should check out the song Blow by Chris Stapleton, Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars. The vocals have an effect I'm not the fondest of, but it's a good, extremely rockin' tune. Not country by any stretch, though.
Keith’s influence was full on traditional Country! He started playing at the age if 3, heavily inspired by Don Williams and Glen Campbell. Keith, unfortunately, let’s the music take him, instead of focusing on a genre. “The Fighter” is a more current album that was Co-Produced with legendary Niles Rogers so, yea, a different sound. Treat yourselves to “When Summer Comes Around” then sit back and watch him do his thing.
