Okay who else wants Its a Southern Thing to do a full length movie called "Love and Cornbread'?
Someone call Hallmark!
As long as there’s no raisins in it 😉
It'll be about two families whose feud over sugar in cornbread or no sugar in cornbread has gone back generations. The leads bring everyone together when they fall in love, and defy their families by opening a store that sells *both* types of cornbread. The end will be the couple with their baby when a Yankee couple and their baby open up shop across the way to sell pimento cheese, setting up a sequel where the babies grow up to fall in love and open their own store together.
@@AB2B The last names of the first couple are Barrel. The couple in the sequel create...Cracker Barrel.
YES but WITH the sound effects IN it: cicadas, train, air con, leaf blower noise AND leaf blower man walking past the window!
I didn't even notice the Cicadas, until they mentioned it 😂😂
See, now that's funny 😄
@@ItsaSouthernThing I also had train tracks that ran behind my house, didn't notice them after living there for a while.
I didn't notice either!! Lol
Same! It's just background noise for me, as is the AC!
That's just one of those sounds you learn to drown out.
The trains aren't a joke down here. One goes by my parents' church and the preacher just stops talking until it's past. The congregation finds it amusing when a visiting preacher tries to keep going with his sermon before eventually giving up on being heard.
🤣. I used to be woken up by them at midnight by our old place
We have the “church by the railroad tracks” also. 😂
Trains here in southern Missouri are loud and annoying. It's like the engineers intentionally lean on the horn all the way through any populated area
I live not far from a UP branch line in San Jose, which is also used by Caltrain (come to think of it I see more Caltrain trains than UP!). It's far enough away that I can tune it out, but I can still hear it. Not to mention I hear a lot of train horns, as there is a grade crossing nearby.
marrieta ga is like that too (but im atheist)
The train thing is too real. I lived next to tracks for years and basically stopped noticing, but once in awhile, it'd be like "What's that weird noise outside?" before realizing it was the same train that passed by every day for 10 years.
...waking up gasping with panic in the middle of the night, saying, "What was that noise???" because the train _didn't_ come, and was 5 minutes late...
I lived in an apartment building next to tracks for 2 years in college. By the third night, you sleep right through it. Honestly, the crossing bells were more annoying, especially when the Amtrak train would sit there blocking the street next to the apartment. Fortunately, that only happened around nine am.
No sleep is more relaxing than when a train is passing through!
@@catherinegarmon3027 it is relaxing. But after 3 nights you no longer hear everything in your apartment shaking!
I like train noises. I find them comforting.
The noises are straight up a WHOLE ACCURACY 🤣🤣
Especially in Mississippi
Miss Hippy, say it right
@Bill Moyer or mis sippi 😂
@Karasu Tengu I used to hate you good in your sleep and next thing you know, this loud blaring Racket stumbles you out of slumber! 😂
They must have been filming on the first of the month around noon. That’s when they test the tornado siren in lots of small Southern towns. 😂
Our sirens tests are the first Wednesday of each month at 9am here.
I moved from IL (first Tuesday) to MI (first Saturday) in June 1990. That first test, coming during tornado season, had me raring up and looking around like “Where is it?!!” 🌪️
The train made me laugh. My grandparents lived 50 feet from a train track. When my grandma was talking on the phone she would just say “train coming” and stop talking until it went by.
Right! My grandparents lived in a house for 60 years that had a train track right behind it. Four years ago they sold that house and moved into a brand new house they had built, and guess what it has in front of it . . . a freakin train track! lol
hahaha much appreciation from Australia! we have the deafening cicadas too! one thing we get more and more these days is the helipcopters. What with police chases, sea and cliff rescues, the army base only 20 miles away, the hospital 3 miles up the road with its air ambulance, and the way choppers are used everyday to airlift heavy items in any situation with poor road access, you can't escape the choppers. Even in the wilderness (especially now that vacationers can pay to be choppered in and out of remote areas,) they are as common as crows.
I live on the flight path that the copters take to the hospital. The sound like they’re at treetop level when the fly through
I love it when Diana and Kevin act together as a couple... they have such good chemistry. :) :) :)
For the longest time I thought they actually were married.
@@Dark_Angel07 are they a couple?
@@Lopal12 Unfortunately no.
They do
Who the fuck is Diana and Kevin?
Am I the only one that finds the trains rather soothing? This needs to be a movie
Soothing when it's in the distance but.when it's at the crossing it's LOUD
I find them annoying. Nature sounds like cicadas don't register or are soothing, the A/C is okay...but the trains are too damn loud for me.
You are indeed.......the only one. I had eardrum repair surgery and now I know trains are coming without the horn! I can feel the vibrations. It’s torture. Gotta love Louisiana!
When we moved into the house we live in now (it was my great grandparents house), my mother said the first night when she heard the train it was like coming home. She had grown up in a house that was less than a couple hundred feet from a crossing. This house is a little father away but the sound of the train is just part of the sounds of the area. I’m sure people moving in hate it.
To this day, a train horn makes me sleepy because my childhood home was half a block from a busy track. And like a lot of other commenters, I didn't even register the cicadas until dude pointed them out!
Years ago the Canadian contingent of relatives came down and kept trying to shout over the cicadas and asking what the noise was. I had recalibrate my brain just to hear them at all. Tuned all this stuff out (plus the local racetrack) decades ago.
This could’ve been filmed in my backyard…especially with the train, bugs, a/c, and mower 😂
I live in the middle of the city and it's always noisy with trains, sirens, locus in the trees, and don't forget the boom boom "music" from cars in the parking lot that rattle the windows and your brain...
Years ago I moved to a small town in Wyoming. My house was about 1/4 mi from the train yard. The sound of the cars ramming into each other drove me nuts for the first two weeks. After that I didn't even notice them.
At the train, I stopped the video to shout for my mom because I had to show her, too. As soon as I stopped talking, what do I hear in the background but a train! Talk about timing! 🤣🤣
Oh my goodness! Y'all are hilarious!!! I live in the south and am so accustomed to these sounds that they are a part of life! One more thing - If y'all make the "Love and Cornbread" movie don't forget to add plenty of chirping frogs you hear after a nice southern downpour!
And forget gunshots during hunting season
Cicadas and grasshoppers by day, frogs and crickets by night... North Texas...
So true y’all. I swear leaf blowers are the loudest machines in the world. My neighbors lawn is blown every Tuesday. We just can’t be outside. Impossible to hear each other talk.
I can't be the only one waiting for the tornado siren again at the end, with a "oh yeah that one was real, we all went outside to watch".
I _knew_ the first scene would have cicadas!
I only notice them when I’m stepping outside of a morning for the daily forecast. If they’re already droning, I know I have about an hour to get my chores done before it gets stupid hot.
The 3 locations in the South with the most jacked up traffic are I-10 outside Dallas Tx,I-85 around Atlanta Ga, & any Cracker Barrel on Sunday.
You wanted Love & Cornbread? You GOT it! The South is quite ALIVE lol. Between random winds, trains, occasional gunfire and cicadas, you're never alone anywhere at anytime 😆
I hear you on the random gunshots! 👍
Gun shots and hunting dogs barking! 😂
Lol, rewatched and a train is passing in my small town right at the train part.....created quite the surround sound moment 🤣
I think this is the funniest sketch you've done so far. Insanely accurate 😂
I LOVE listening to trains! I was born and raised in and around Monroe, LA. I left early for my first day at work at my first job when I was 19... yep, still 5 minutes late because of the train. Learned to take I-20 overpass and go around to get to work rather than drive the shorter distance and risk the train getting me late to work!
Funny thing is, I was just at supper with friends and we were talking about families when growing up and somehow I was telling about family get togethers at Aunt Ethel's and that since I was always the older female cousin there, I was in charge of making sure my younger cousins AND our great-grandmother stayed off the train tracks! And that it was harder for me to keep my great-grandmother off the tracks than it was the kids!
Loved this and I'd watch the movie if you did one!
First!
Edit: And also yes the cicadas just show up unannounced and it is very confusing! But I must admit in the height of summer I do find them as a kind of soothing white noise at night!
Top tier sleep sounds for sure!
The first time I heard them as a kid, I thought something was wrong with the power lines.
@@kazeryu17That's amazing! HAHA
The trick here is to give it to a French editor and make it an artsy montage intentionally replacing the words with the sounds.
Before moving to NC, I wouldn't have understood this video. But now, I was dying laughing because all these sounds are a daily thing! 🤣
100%. Yes. All the things. Great job, y'all!
That was the best skit! You totally took me by surprise with the train. Probably because it is spot on. The cicadas scenes edited with non-cicada scenes was priceless!!
I find the sounds of cicadas when I’m sitting outside on a warm summer evening very relaxing.
If this were a real Hallmark Movie, I'd watch it!
Why'd you say that? now I have false hope
But this is real, Hallmark isn't. Lol
The leaf blower during that serious moment 🤣 so accurate, or weed eater
I love the Loud South, especially at night. Best sleep I would get.
Here in The Old Dominion we don't do tornado warnings so much but cicadas, locusts, periodic locusts and trains trains trains yep... songs in the night rock us to sleep...
There's nothing like trying to sleep through the sound of idaling coal trains.
Lol even in Florida we can relate to all of this ... Other than the tornado siren
So true and I love every freaking second of it
So excited to watch! Can you guys do more of the church ladies soon? Loved them 😂
Stay tuned!
@@ItsaSouthernThing yay!
This was one of my fave skits they did.
Loved this, so true!
Where I’m from it’s a two lane road, across the mountain, behind a coal truck.
Mine is a dirt road behind a combine
The awesome shag on Liz is so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was hilarious and I agree, there needs to be more of Love and Cornbread. I'm already hooked!
The patio window was the icing on the cake!
I think -you guys- y'all have as much fun doing these vids as we do watching them!
This looks better than any movie I’ve seen on tv 📺 in awhile
I really did laugh out loud.
Hysterical! As a midwesterner I can relate to each and every one of these sounds.
This was great! I lost it when the tornado siren went off.
Don't forget outdoor weddings. Trains, planes, automobiles, dogs, bird, sirens....
1:33 with the tornado sirens kickin off absolutely killed me! 🤣
This was probably one of the funniest skits y’all have done 😂
We once had people visiting from D.C. We warned them it was noisy, but they said they were used to city noises, so it'd be fine. The tree frogs and cicadas still kept them up. We were near Duke, so in addition to the tornado sirens we also had the nuclear plant sirens, and trains. We didn't have yard noises except when we went out to mow the field ourselves. We would also haul out the chainsaw to take down any trees struck by lightning pretty frequently. Although not near our house, there were also the muddin' trucks that had loud exhaust, or the other trucks that were flat out missing their mufflers, plus the custom horns that played the local fight song (Tiger Rag).
I feel it, but mine were police, fire, paramedics, and gun shots at my off campus apartment while in college. Eventually it was all just static.
my mom knew she was running late for work if the train caught her ear 😂
Y’all are always killin’ it! You had me at cicadas.
🤣 "So True Y'all"... Never has a truer statement been made 🤣
We run our fans all night because it's hot as blazes, and to drown out the sounds of the cicadas, trains, opposums crunching through the leaves in the yard... If you know, you know... 😉
Those are all the sounds that put me to sleep! LOL
Talk about hits that nail on the head 🤣
@@MaryGatdula true for a lot of people, but the cicadas are so loud at my house it's almost impossible to sleep 😉. Rain on the other hand will put me right out 😊
@@TheOldPCTech 😁
I lived in Alabama for a few years and I grew used to the noises pretty quickly. Been living in Argentina for a few years now and I have to wear earplugs around the house 24/7. As it turns out, the South of the whole continent of America is even worse than the South of just the US. 😂
I couldn’t stop laughing 😂😂😂
When I first moVed the trains and their horns kept me up but oVer time I slept like a baby. Then my guests would ask how so you sleep through that?😂
This is hilarious and so creative 🤣 😆 I'm dying 😅😅😅
The train whistle!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I had a train right next to one of my college buildings. We had to stop the class for like 5 minutes every day. The professor was so mad.
Haw. Right on. Leafblower was on point. For 4 hrs at a stretch sometimes. Trains too. Add in the buttwipe with incessantly crowing roosters two doors down, the neighbor with the open exhaust Harley and/or truck, the occasional random backyard target practice session, and the barking dogs in every other yard yapping day and night, outside summer and winter. I've lived in major city downtowns that were quieter than the Sleepy South. Its like living in a frat house.
Omg! I could SO relate to ALL of those sounds!!!!!!!
Alright this needs to be an actual full length movie
This is hilarious
Absolutely ! Impossible to hold a conversation outside! Near a highway when a Tractor Trailer goes by and hits the Jake Brake sounding those butt cheek snappers my grandpaw would let off and he strolled down the hall!
When the Sirens went off for testing. I LOST IT!!!!
The lawn guy casually wandering past the back door while drama was going down in the house there was for some reason hysterical. 🤣
I’m used to sirens, insects, kids, dogs, and music playing outside. I’m used to it now! I swear my street in Queens was quieter than my street in Florida.
lol... the whole time my niece was visiting from France. "What is THAT noise? How do you live like this?" I think it's quiet. No city sounds. lol
OK, I finally lost it when the leaf blower started up! 🤣
That was very East Tx!! LOL Right down to the tornado sirens!
I literally didn't notice half the sounds until y'all pointed them out 🤣
My dogs howling at children getting off the bus and the pack of motorcycles on the first warm and sunny day.
I love it! It's all true!! 🤣🤣👏🏽🤪🥰👌🏿🤣🤣
I died!! So funny, so true 😅
That there was the sounds of my youth! 🤣
It gets so loud at times, especially Spring and Summer, that it is like Wild Kingdom.
Ya just wanna holler "Shut up!"
I was on the phone one time with my mom and had to step outside and she asked "What on Earth is all that noise? "
Spring time in the South Mom!
funny, she said she didn't recall it being that noisy and I had to remind her we live near a creek. Mating season, every-dang-thing was getting busy!
This is so true. My backyard is this loud constantly 😂
So true. So funny. I love the south.
Oh Lordy yes! Sorry you missed the police/ambulance/chain saw/hunting-sighting gun in sounds but loved the tornado and train!! And the log truck!!😂😂😂Oh so true !!❤❤
Oh my god, ya'll got me cracking up. LOL.
Loved this ... All the sounds are so true! That tornado siren though ... 😂😂😂 Every Wednesday at noon where I live 😂😂😂
Our tornado siren is the same one they play at noon around here 😂Truth be told, when visiting a city I thought two things: 1) it is WAY quieter than the countryside (especially in the evening/night), and 2) light pollution is a thing - there is no such thing as nighttime in a city, 'cause all the artificial lights make it as bright as daylight.
(edited for spelling)
Could have added dogs barking too. That would definitely be my neighborhood! 😁
🤣🤣🗣FACTS!!🤣🤣
Blessings From Texas 🤠
Love & Cornbread is going to be a great movie.
"Love and Cornbread." I am both intrigued and hungry...
In Minnesota, it's the snow blower in the winter, train all year round, tornado sirens March to November, leaf blowers and mowers in the summer. And if you're next to one of our 10,000 lakes, add water craft motors or ice augers to the list.
Y'all, I'm so used to noise that when I was still teaching (retired) I could read a book while sitting in the middle of a cafeteria full of kindergarteners and second graders. And who else has to have some kind of noise to fall asleep?😂
That so funny! You forgot the gun popping sounds during deer hunting season and random fire crackers, and motorcycles and trucks with big mufflers, the rooster crowing in the morning (and throughout the day).
And the squeaking of the wood floors and a screen door spring, the slam of that screen door when it's let go, baying hounds after a squirrel or a coon, liquored-up good ol' boys whooping it up, some front porch bluegrass picking and clogging, kids running around screaming and jumping through the stream of a water hose, etc. The South IS loud!
Bahaaa the cicadas and the trains 😂😂😂sooo accurate
Ha! When my daughter was in college they were doing their drill team introductions individually on the football field for the Texas State University Strutters. "Hi, my name is Maddie Gray BRRRRRAAMMMMMMMM"; train horn. (couldn't hear the rest of it) We laugh about it to this day. If you want to check her out, she's an NFL cheerleader for the Houston Texans. (among her other jobs) "Maddie"
Add to that was the train coming through on Friday nights during the Rattlers football home games. The train was so close to the stadium that you could be in the bleachers closest to the train track and throw a rock and probably hit the train. Our home football games were a lot of fun back in the 1960's - 1970's. Go Rattlers! (San Marcos High School)
I clicked on your face, Liz, and there's no link! Lol y'all are too funny 🤣
Instantly thought of decades upon decades with my grandparents. Trains too. :)
LOL these sounds are the TRUTH
I’ve been to South Carolina, and between the trains and noise of my own extended family, I wanted nothing more than to go back to Ohio
Ha...I moved to SC from OH. Cleveland is a hella lot louder than SC. 😂
NE Ohio here right in Cleveland! Less than a mile from train tracks that had traffic all night long! And of course the gates at the crossings were dinging those warning bells. But even worse was the abundance of Catholic churches that rang their bells at 6 and 9am for services as well as the hour and half hour all day! Thirteen churches! I live in the country now. No church bells.
That was HILARIOUS!
I feel like crud today and this just made me feel much better
😂😂😂 the lawn guy!!!
This one had me rolling!
gonna have to ADR an entire film 😅
LMAO!!!!!!!!!! (I lived in southwestern Tennessee for 17 years.)
