Hey, buddy. New to your channel. I absolutely love your content. I'd love for you to do ruclips.net/video/PBDdLgBO0Nw/видео.html Sam Cooke's "Blowin' In The Wind" if you haven't already. It was written and sang by Bob Dylan first I believe. And Dylan's singing of it is really good. But Sam's version just takes it to another level in my opinion. Sam had maybe had the best voice ever. There will never be another Sam Cooke. Anyway, hope you check it out. take care and keep on keepin; on.
You should check out wabash cannonball performed live by Charlie Daniels, boxcar Willie, and the king of country music Roy Acuff. An all time live performance of any song. ruclips.net/video/QIWI8qeEI8s/видео.html
I seen Hootie and The Blowfish in concert around the time Darius released this song and they played this song at the concert. That show was so much fun.
If I may, the girl in the video who is playing Darius's GF & getting Jase to let him in isn't Missy Robertson. Missy is blonde & not in this video. Just setting this straight. ;o)
What a lot of people don't know about Darius Rucker is that he has always loved country music and can tell you all about it all the way back to all of the artist and their music in the 50s
I met Darius Rucker leaving the hotel bar after a show in Omaha. He was a short little asshole to everyone he spoke to. After that I was glad Smashmouth opened for Hootie and the Blowfish & blew them off the stage.
It would be cool to react to the Old Crow Medicine Show version back to back. Both versions are great, comes down to personal taste. The video for the OCMS is fun. Crazy that this song stemmed from a bootleg version of an unfinished Bob Dylan song called Rock Me Mama. When Ketch Secor from OCMS was is high school he added the verses and the song was born. They share song writing credit with Bob Dylan.
Wagon Wheel (song) " Wagon Wheel " is a song co-written by Bob Dylan and Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show. Dylan recorded the chorus in 1973; Secor added verses 25 years later. Old Crow Medicine Show's final version was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in April 2013.
Darius Rucker is an amazing country artist! I love that he collaborated with Lady Antebellum (or Lady A, as they’ve changed their name). You should check out his song “Come Back Song,” it’s so good! Lady Antebellum is definitely worth checking out as well, you can see their growth as a group from the start til now. Edit: I JUST REALIZED THATS SI ROBERTSON DRIVING!! And all the Robertson crew is in here too, wow, it’s been a minute lol
Cant believe it took you this long to get to it but glad you did been a sub since your first couple of months gotta say its been a fun ride with ya as always keep up the great work my wife and I love your channel
I love this song. The first time I heard it was from Old Crow Medicine Show. It's one of those songs I go back to again and again to lift my spirits. This version is great too, but he will always be Hootie & The Blowfish to me. That was my very first concert. I was 11 years old. Summer of 1996 at SPAC.
Darius was immediately welcomed into the country music world. So much so he was invited to be a member of the Gran Ole Opry, something many country artists want but never achieve.
I've loved Darius' Ruckers' voice since buying the first Hootie & The Blowfish album. Lost track of him when he went in the direction of Country. It's only in the past year I've heard this song, but it was love at first listen; glad you got to this one, J ✌
One of my favorite Country songs, I don't remember ever hearing it from anyone before but DR. I call it my 'North Carolina song' as my cousin and I heard it fairly often on the radio when we were on Va-k around Asheville about 8 yrs ago. It makes me smile anytime I hear it. I so much want to move to Western NC. 😌
Personally like the Old Crow version more, but it may be my bias to that band, I have know former member Willie Watson since he was a kid, his dad was my high school track coach.
I've seen Hootie & the Blowfish twice...Oktober 1998 in Cologne,Germany and in November 1998 in Dublin,Irland...had the Honour to talk to Darius before the Show in Cologne...caught him and the Band as they arrived at the Venue....told him i was going to see the Show in Dublin at the Olympia Theatre...and He recognized me in the Audience...i was standing in third row...He pointed at me as if to say..."there u are...I see u...thanx for coming"...i wonder if He remembers this.....what a nice and humble man...so down to earth...love his voice,melodies and lyrics since the first Album with Hootie...love his solo stuff...he's brilliant...love to see him again...his music helped me through tough Times...thank u Darius....today i'm just HIGH ON LIFE
@@richeaton7436 tons of great songs, but I would go with Medicine, Muddy Bottom Blues, Night Train, or Bayou Boogie as an introduction for a new listener. My take. Like with Rush, I suggest Tom Sawyer before YYZ.
@@pacificcoastpiper3949 Dylan only wrote the chorus "So rock me mama like a wagon wheel Rock me mama any way you feel Hey mama rock me Rock me mama like the wind and the rain Rock me mama like a south-bound train Hey mama rock me" Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show wrote the versus, so the full song we just listened to was first done by OCMS.
Hoottie be as cool & smooth as Brother Samuel L. He lives in Charleston SC & Daryl Hall came to Darius’s home for Live From Daryl’s House. That’s how cool he is. 😊
I was listening to a radio program on CBC (Canada) and the presenter started talking about this song. He said he was at a wedding dance in his hometown and this song started. He said he rolled his eyes, thinking " this song, AGAIN?!" because every band was playing it. Then he said an amazing thing happened, EVERYONE started dancing: kids, adults, young and old. He has appreciated this song ever since...
Loved Hootie and the blowfish , love him doing country. Hes so talented ! The other people are from a show called "Duck Dynasty", havent seen that show in a while but its worth a watch :) . keep posting vids ..
Darius Rucker and I both went to the University of South Carolina at the same time in the 80s. I saw Hootie and the Blowfish a couple times at local joints. I found out many years later that he and I both had sung in the S.C. All-State Chorus, which was a gathering of hundreds of chorus students. I still have the recording from that, with both our names on the album sleeve (among hundreds of others).
The limo was part of the intro to Duck Dynasty TV show. First ride was with Uncle Cy. Second was with Willie, his wife and daughter. The convertible was Lady A singers. And the doorman was another Robinson brother Jase.
I first heard this song around 2004 at The Station Inn in Nashville where Old Crow Medicine Show performed it...Wow! Their version and the video is my favorite. Watching the band members play the song in the video with the carnival atmosphere (and sideshow) adds such a raw element that I think completes the song the way it was intended.
He does have a great voice! The people in the video were the family from the TV show, "Duck Dynasty " & the country band, Lady A". It was fun seeing them in the video as well.
that guy that picked him up is "Uncle Sy" from the show Duck Dynasty,, some of the rest of the family shows up later. . The video features several guest appearances including Jase, Korie, Sadie, Si and Willie Robertson, the burly guys from A&E's Duck Dynasty, as well as Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum. Kelley joined the crew as a participant in the video, and his band members Dave and Hillary join him in crooning the background vocals for the new single.
This is a cover of the Old Crow Medicine Show. "Rock Me Mama" was a sketch song written by Bob Dylan for the movie Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. But Dylan could never complete the song. Ketch Secor of Old Crow resurrected it, completed the verses and the chorus and Dylan approved it. Old Crow's recordings of "Wagon Wheel" are worth a listen also.
Bob Dylan wrote the chorus in 1973. It was titled Rock Me Mama but he never finished the song. Keith Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show wrote the versus in 2003 an Wagon Wheel was born.
I was touched by "Brad Paisley invites Darius Rucker to join Grand Ole Opry". Being asked is the highlight of many artists career (equivalent to being coronated into Country Music Royalty) and I was touched by Darius Rucker's disbelief that he wasn't being put on. Not sure if.enough there for a reaction. I've watched it several times and am touched every time.
Got to see Hootie & the Blowfish live back around 1995-96. Saw Darius live again just a few years ago. I'll never forget that first performance... She sits alone by a lamp post... The man is a truly gifted musician and performer.
This version is really good, but the Old Crow Medicine Show version is just about perfect! You should really listen to their version, too. Love how both of these songs are equally good! Thanks for reacting to "Wagon Wheel"! Peace!
If you’d live in Texas like I do, and if you go for a road trip, this song is a vibe to the road, it’s played more than once each drive which is amazing
This song was technically co-written by Bob Dylan and Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show. The chorus and melody came from a demo recorded by by Dylan in 1973. Secor wrote the verses around Dylan's original chorus and melody. Look up the song for a more detailed account on Wikipedia. It's pretty interesting.
Love Darius, he's a huge talent. But also you MUST hear some Hootie and the Blowfish! Hold My Hand, Old Man and Me, Only Wanna Be With You--so many great songs!!
Now you gotta check out the key and peele skit where Darius Rucker is performing solo and everyone keeps calling him “Hootie” in the crowd lol. Hootie/Darius is awesome. The sketch of this song was made by Bob Dylan by the way. It was very rough and he only had an idea of the song. Darius took that idea and made it happen. Everyone in the south loves this song. Can’t go to many southern campfires without someone busting an acoustic out and playing this one.
All the bearded fellows in the video are the family from the reality show "Duck Dynasty" that was very popular a few years back. Love this song...and Love Darius !!!!!
LOVE Darius!! Loved him with Hootie And The Blowifish back in the 90's and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE him now as a Country artist!! He has SO many Country hits!! PLEASE check out another Darius hit Country song.... "IT WON'T BE LIKE THIS FOR LONG".... it really hits the nail on the head!! GREAT reaction and BTW..... the group Lady Antebellum, who are in this video w/Darius (driving the car and in the bar), is another phenomenal Country group you should consider checking out sometime!! From Lady Antebellum try: "NEED YOU NOW" or "I RUN TO YOU"!! Both were HUGE cross-over hits on Country and Pop charts.... :)
I wanna call cap. He’s heard this song before. He smiled when it was the best / my favorite part. Last chorus “so rock me round a like wagon wheels” the slow part. Everyone knows to sing along at that part lol

Have always been a Hootie /Blowfish fan, love him doing Country. Great singer/entertainer!!
Loved Hootie and the Blow Fish
The cast of Duck Dynasty and Lady A. were cameos. Jase was the bouncer. His wife was the one who told Jase to let him in.
If I may, the girl in the video who is playing Darius's GF & getting Jase to let him in isn't Missy Robertson. Missy is blonde & not in this video. Just setting this straight. ;o)
Thank you
Always loved this song but never saw the video. Didn't know the Duck Dynasty(Robertson) family were in it-love them too!💕
What a lot of people don't know about Darius Rucker is that he has always loved country music and can tell you all about it all the way back to all of the artist and their music in the 50s
yeah he knows the shiz shame he went with racists for part of his stent he is much better off now
yup, he grew up in Charleston, SC and was a huge country fan
Finally! Darius went to Daryl’s House,too, J! Fantastic version of You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling by them!
I love Darius Rucker, everything he's does. Great song
I was about the say the exact same thing. 😁
This shit is just silly.🤦🏻♂️
I met Darius Rucker leaving the hotel bar after a show in Omaha.
He was a short little asshole to everyone he spoke to.
After that I was glad Smashmouth opened for Hootie and the Blowfish & blew them off the stage.
@@jimpage7141 what’s silly
@@xavier1k__631 Dummy Rucker is a silly drunken fool. And his music is ultra silly. And his politics are preposterously stupid.
Find the keys to Darryl's House and watch their Wagon Wheel rendition. Darius sings it with them.
You HAVE to!

I came here to say that😃 OCMS was just here Friday . Unfortunately due to a prior commitment I couldn’t go 😕
I prefer Darius's version
Johnson City is EAST of the Cumberland Gap, Ketch...
@@chantaloblander9039 Were they supported by Molly Tuttle?
A word of caution: Don't listen to this song first thing in the morning unless you're prepared to listen to it in your head all day long. That is all.
Lol. So true, had it stuck in my head for a week…
I can think of worse earworms.
I love His voice and he’s a down to earth guy!!!! And Jamel aka Jamal love your channel,,,
My cousin Quentin plays guitar for Darius. Darius is also part of the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville

It’s the whole Robertson family from the show Duck Dynasty!
I met all those guys at a strip club I used to work at here in Louisiana. Bunch of cool cats all of them.
Ohhh yea.... I absolutely adore Darius Rucker!!! 😊💖 Anything he does is awesome. This is one of my favorite songs!
Darius Rucker is an amazing country artist! I love that he collaborated with Lady Antebellum (or Lady A, as they’ve changed their name). You should check out his song “Come Back Song,” it’s so good!

Edit: I JUST REALIZED THATS SI ROBERTSON DRIVING!! And all the Robertson crew is in here too, wow, it’s been a minute lol
Most of the cast of Duck Dynasty is in this video.
My beef w Lady A. is when the tornado ripped through their concert they showed hardly any compassion nor sympathy for the people.
Lady Antebellum should’ve never changed their name. They need to change it back. Their fans will be waiting. I’ve abandoned them for that pc bs
I’ve loved his voice ever since Hootie days, love him even more singing country. And I hadn’t seen this video, so thanks very much for reacting to it!
Being from TN, right outside of Nashville, and living in NC, right outside Raleigh, this quickly became one of my favorites
As someone who lives in Raleigh, I got REALLY tired of hearing this song. First time I have heard this in awhile. Glad you liked it brother.

Saw Hootie & The Blowfish in a bar in VA about 8 months before they blew up nationally on the radio.
This has been a favorite of mine for years. The Hook in this song is from Bob Dylan.
Darius nails it. Go hootie. Hootie hoo!
Great song choice J-man. It's a Dylan cover by the way.
You Rock Jamal! Thank you so much! Truly love your reactions!!
Here in NC, no matter who sings it, this song always brings the crowd singing and clapping.
“And if I die in Raleigh, at least I will die free!”
I really appreciate your efforts ❤️ towards me thanks for been a supportive and understanding fan that cares
I knew Darius Rucker was going to go far! I love him! He makes me happy!
Darius was immediately welcomed into the country music world. So much so he was invited to be a member of the Gran Ole Opry, something many country artists want but never achieve.
Song written by Bob Dylan and Old Crow Medicine Show.
One of my favorite "feel good" songs. Just makes me want to go somewhere.
