"Purgatory sounded alright, cause all of a sudden there was a fightin' chance where there wasn't one." Never heard theology put so eloquently, so truly
@@enriquetovar9629 Sure thing! We Catholics believe purgatory is a state the soul enters to be fully purified--through Christ--before going on to Heaven. So even the "least deserving" can get to God, as long as they wish to. You don't have to already be perfect (no one is). And so it gives Tyler hope, cause he still has a chance. That's my poor way of putting it!
@@matthewsawczyn6592 He seems to not know it, but he has a chance either way through Jesus' sacrifice. Purgatory is not our saving grace, Jesus' death and resurrection are, however. I appreciate your patience and eloquence though!
He is definitely unique. Incredible even, but he does have a Johnny Horton thing going on. That's a good thing. Maybe it's just a mountain thing. I don't know, but I friggin love it!
Sounds like Johnny Horton you say hey I think you think that because he has the ability to tell a story through music and the way he whines voice in his songs incredible
Guilty as charged, Tyler's the one who truly broke me into all of this stuff. Fast forward a few years and now I'm jamming out to straight bluegrass just as hard as I ever have to metal. It's so much more fun to be well-rounded.
Will you pray for me When the roots of the oak And my ribcage are braidin’ If I can think Lord knows that I will fondly pray for you High on the hill where the fox horns blow And down in the grave where they lay me low Catholic girl, pray for me You’re my only hope for heaven When I's a boy I’d drink and love and smoke and snort my fill But all the while I kept in mind the lord’s redeeming grace High on the hill where the fox horns blow And down in the city where the heathens go Catholic girl, pray for me You’re my only hope for heaven Do you reckon he lets Free Will Boys mope around in purgatory I know that hell Is just as real as I am surely breathin’ But I’ve heard tell Of a middle ground, I think will work for me When the time has come for changin' worlds I’ll hedge my bets with a catholic girl Catholic girl, pray for me You’re my only hope for heaven
And that folks, is what you call "talent". No snaps and claps with a drum machine, no autotuned voice. Just some good ole fashioned real singing and beating them strings like they owe him money.
I used to automatically hate any country song anyone would play. Discovering artists like Tyler Childers and Cody Jinks have opened up a whole new world of music for me. You fucking rock Tyler, please keep making music
I'm just now discovering Mr. Childers' music, and am LOVING it. Just viewed this video and noticed the Drive-By Truckers poster on the wall behind him-- one of my favorite bands, particularly their song "Late for Church". Symmetry! I love when shit comes together like that.
Right on. I remember hearing this as it aired on 100.9 The Creek in Macon Ga. I was like "Hell yeah finally a good radio station, they're playing Tyler Childers." Come to find out the station is owned and operated by a bunch of old friends that I met in Macon in my 20s. Awesome world.
As an ex-catholic, I see the humor and irony in “When the time is come for changin’ worlds, I’ll hedge my bets with a Catholic girl.” I also just love his poetry- “when the roots of the oak and my rib age are braidin’”
Being catholic i Understand a deeper meaning of this song. In Catholic belief the only way to go from purgatory to heaven is if someone who is Catholic who knows you prays for you enough to go to heaven so he’s pleading with the girl that he broke up with to save his soul which I find amazing
I agree! Except, even if someone who isn’t Catholic decides one day to pray for someone who has died, God still hears their prayer. How God responds to that prayer is up to him, of course. I’m grateful to be a cradle Catholic, and it’s lovely to see a fellow Catholic in the comments! ❤ Purgatory is God’s mercy.
Couldn't be also that since she broke up with him .. he is also pleading with he to think about that and see if she can find a way to get back to gether? A dual meaning is what I'm saying
I'm an Ozarks man.....raised on the gasconade river and I have to say that Tyler is a lot more of a brother to me now that I've listened to him. Luv ya keep it simple little brother, don't forget the little people out here in this ugly world,we relate with you.
Just heard this tonight on 93.3FM in north Texas, best pickin’ I’ve heard since I listened to music in the back woods of Fairbanks, Alaska in a log cabin, with snow all around, Northern Lights up above, a fire in the pot belly stove & people dancing and drinking beer.
Had the chance to see Tyler Childers at The Troubadour last night. Great show!! He's a very talented man. I wish him safety & joy with this musical journey.
I am a single dad. Who knows what state the boys mom is even in. He is 3 but smart enough to be sad about her. I put him to bed and Im drinking and listening to Tyler all night long but Ive gotta be up at 5am. What a life thank god for good music how else would I even do it all. I dont mine coal but I look like a miner when my day is done life is hard.
Harlan County boy, transplanted to GA after my dad passed. Mom didn’t want us to dig coal lol. Hanging out in Pikeville, going down in the mines tomorrow in Grundy. Thanks Tyler for keeping our Hillbilly Heritage alive. BTW, going to see mamaw to in Coldiron
I f****** love your music Tyler. So much heart in the voice. You've experienced everything worth singing about and have the perfect blend of southern slang and poetry in your lyrics. And you're a seriously underrated guitar player. You're a beast!
hes so raw. i have been going my whole life searching for music like his. there isnt any way to describe it but pure raw emotion and i cant get enough.
This song is timeless... a real gem. Especially this performance. Beats the ass off the studio version! I guess that's what makes music beautiful... you can listen to a thousand songs and not find even close to this... then out of the blue... purgatory by tyler childers!
My second favorite Tyler Childers song. Next to Creeker!! His newer songs Way of Triune God and Rusting in the Rain are pretty awesome also!! He is really great. 👏👏👏
He's so good, I want to see him next time he's here. I missed him in Nashville just a couple weeks ago. But I get to see Oliver Anthony June 1st at Cumberland caverns!!! At least I have that ❤
That's some mighty fine pickin'! This sounded just like it would be a classic country/bluegrass song, didn't realize until recently that Childers wrote it.
I use to pay for Spotify and Apple music. After cancelled accounts, I found out that there is way better music you can't find on paid apps. This is solid country gold!

@@codyburke990 nah that God given talent bro. God has blessed him. Thats years and years of practicing and playing. Think about it hes probably in his early 20s here and been playing since he was 5 or 6 probably, same as me im 27 been playing since I was 6 or 7. Think about it thats 20 years or a liitle more of dedication and hard work.
A guy introduced me to Tyler Childers. We talked but never met. He ended things. We listened to this song, I said "we are never eating ar Bob Evans." He said, "never!" He ended our friendship but I miss him. It's been only a week but I am still here listening and probably never will. 😥
As a reformed Presbyterian, I neither like free will baptist theology or Catholicism but this song is great and I cant wait to see him here in Oklahoma in October!

well that's a really fucking dangerous job, and should really be left to trained professionals, so i have no doubt it would make for a great song.

Bravo, Matthew!
Tyler's face when he nails the tricky guitar cord is amazing. Hyped he nailed it.
He smiled because he didn't nail it.
He smiled cause he didnt nail it at all, he got way out of time and missed a few notes. But thats ok
@@whiteyfisk9769sounds pretty damn good to me
@@whiteyfisk9769didn’t really seem to get out of time, just missed a few notes. Still sounded good to me
That's the thing if your not a guitar player ur not gonna realise. So u dont gotta be perfect
this man just has them mountains in him..

As somebody who grew up near the Rockies, I can vouche for this comment.
This guy don't sound like anybody ever, and that's what will save American music
He is definitely unique. Incredible even, but he does have a Johnny Horton thing going on. That's a good thing. Maybe it's just a mountain thing. I don't know, but I friggin love it!
he actually sounds like Johnny Horton :D
Sounds like Johnny Horton you say hey I think you think that because he has the ability to tell a story through music and the way he whines voice in his songs incredible
Johnny Horton...now that u said it hell yea he does! And i love it!
The man has a old soul very rare
As a dude who's spent his teenage-adult years listening to a lot of extreme styles in the heavy metal genre... This kicks ass
Ditto
same.

May I suggest the bluegrass black metal band panopticon lol. But yea, this guy is dope.
@@MetalMark9 Could Varg Vikernes pull it off? Let's find out.
This man is straight Backwood/Moutain /Outlaw Country...THIS IS WHAT COUNTRY MUSIC IS. Rock On Tyler! I'll always be listening to your music \m/
Oh yes
Definitely some true county. Country, folk, bluegrass with some southern rock too. I f****** love you Tyler cinders
Childers
He smiled at his own damn self at 2:34. God bless this dude he's so good.
I thought I was the only one what would catch that.
Jesse Addis it’s hard to deny when you done good
Damn good little run he did there, I was smiling myself
you can’t deny it when you know you nail something 😂
He smiled because he made a mistake.
This is how every version he plays should be played when it comes to Purgatory.
My neighbors liked this song so much they threw a brick through my window to hear it louder.
I literally laughed out loud!
Turn it up
ROFL
EVERY DAY
Can i get my brick back?
keep going Tyler, we're listening, we got your back, go man go
That is the best comment I've ever seen right there, Damn right!!!
Will you pray for me
When the roots of the oak
And my ribcage are braidin’
If I can think
Lord knows that I will fondly pray for you
High on the hill where the fox horns blow
And down in the grave where they lay me low
Catholic girl, pray for me
You’re my only hope for heaven
When I's a boy
I’d drink and love and smoke and snort my fill
But all the while
I kept in mind the lord’s redeeming grace
High on the hill where the fox horns blow
And down in the city where the heathens go
Catholic girl, pray for me
You’re my only hope for heaven
Do you reckon he lets Free Will Boys mope around in purgatory
I know that hell
Is just as real as I am surely breathin’
But I’ve heard tell
Of a middle ground, I think will work for me
When the time has come for changin' worlds
I’ll hedge my bets with a catholic girl
Catholic girl, pray for me
You’re my only hope for heaven
I always thought he said "demon grace"
ive been thinking for years he says reckon he lets freewill boys smoke around in purgatory lol
And that folks, is what you call "talent". No snaps and claps with a drum machine, no autotuned voice. Just some good ole fashioned real singing and beating them strings like they owe him money.
Amen!
Very well said. He is one hell of a singer and a man
I see what you did there
Legendary performance. This will exist for as long as humans exist.
I used to automatically hate any country song anyone would play. Discovering artists like Tyler Childers and Cody Jinks have opened up a whole new world of music for me. You fucking rock Tyler, please keep making music
This is my new favorite song. And my neighbors too💪
“Catholic girl pray for me you’re my only hope for heaven”. Damn that’s good.
When he shreds that little tap at 2:32 he grins and it’s so damn wholesome
Damn this song sticks in my head. Tyler’s music is like narcotics for your ears man
Tyler is a once-in-a-lifetime gem and I'm so grateful to have discovered his music. And being from Kentucky makes it so much better.
I'm just now discovering Mr. Childers' music, and am LOVING it. Just viewed this video and noticed the Drive-By Truckers poster on the wall behind him-- one of my favorite bands, particularly their song "Late for Church". Symmetry! I love when shit comes together like that.

It’s amazing to watch people pick a guitar like a banjo
"You recon he let's free will boys mope around in purgatory?"
That is a great line!
This MF’er here is ONE OF A KIND!
Dude is my favorite
I'm an Ozarks man.....raised on the gasconade river and I have to say that Tyler is a lot more of a brother to me now that I've listened to him. Luv ya keep it simple little brother, don't forget the little people out here in this ugly world,we relate with you.
That guitar play is incredible, the voice and the lyrics are incredible. This is the best musician of the current time.
I am loving the pendulum swinging back to a more traditional sound in country music. Especially after what we've had to endure the last 20 years.
THIS is country gold
When he nails it at 2:32 and give that little smirk!
I love the amount of passion he pours into every song.
This is the best version of this song.

Jesus,where did this come from? Absolutely the best I've heard in a long time..
Go see him live with his band the food stamps
God given gift!
You got to love this guy he keeps it real and he keeps joyfully flow with positive musical energy ...you all have a nice day
These mountains are just in this man
Fight me. Hes the greatest live performer of the generation
My word, he is insanely good.. that voice is gold.
I love this!!!! I'm a Tyler Childers fan for life! I'm from Kentucky! Nothing like it! Amazing music and God's country!!!!!
Katlyn Wiseman me too I'm from Southwest Virginia.
He said "courtin" that's Kentucky shot rite there!! Love it
That sounds you're hearing is PURE Americana. I dont know what Tyler would say, but it sounds like he listened to a lot of Levon Helm and The Band.
His singing and his style of music is the best I think I've ever heard
Just found him. Now I'm hooked
@@coltenreese9718 damn dude is good - same!
Yup me too
God damn son.... I recognize every single bottle in the background. Good bourbon and good music. Thank you!
Had the chance to see Tyler Childers at The Troubadour last night. Great show!! He's a very talented man. I wish him safety & joy with this musical journey.
I love everything about this!. the story, the guitar picking, the vocals. Real music!

Hope you’re hanging in there, man. Things will get better and if you do right by your kids then one day they’ll take good care of you and their own.
This was my first introduction to mister Childers, it’s been amazing seeing what he has done and this is still so awesome!
This man is an Honorary Canadian. We claim him now.
His music is true and has a power behind it..
He sings from the from the heart ❤️🎶
Harlan County boy, transplanted to GA after my dad passed. Mom didn’t want us to dig coal lol. Hanging out in Pikeville, going down in the mines tomorrow in Grundy. Thanks Tyler for keeping our Hillbilly Heritage alive. BTW, going to see mamaw to in Coldiron

God's love on ya, boy...you are both a joy to listen to and watch. Hope you never bite the mainstream hook
This is what raw talent sound like!! 💯💯
No smoke no mirrors. This is real

As a musician you don't know how much I appreciate this
I just discovered this guy today, and I am in love. American music is ALIVE!!!!
His picking amazes me!!
Damn, that man can throw it down. Gotta respect that passion and talent!
I love him more every day. Everything he does is brilliant!
His Pugatory Album just came out a few weeks ago. My first time hearing it live. Fuckin awesome. Love this man

And my ribcage are braidin’
Amazing!
Love Ya Tyler! I'm in Texas, and I always brag about your music. I'm a Caldwell with roots in Cherry Orchard Kentucky!
❤❤ from North Carolina
shew that sounds awfully good
My second favorite Tyler Childers song. Next to Creeker!! His newer songs Way of Triune God and Rusting in the Rain are pretty awesome also!! He is really great. 👏👏👏
I'm not bitter about it and I don't care,is my favorite part
He's so good, I want to see him next time he's here. I missed him in Nashville just a couple weeks ago. But I get to see Oliver Anthony June 1st at Cumberland caverns!!! At least I have that ❤
That's some mighty fine pickin'! This sounded just like it would be a classic country/bluegrass song, didn't realize until recently that Childers wrote it.
I f*****g dig this tune! I play it often at work, in my truck, at home, an at the bar in the jukebox!
I use to pay for Spotify and Apple music. After cancelled accounts, I found out that there is way better music you can't find on paid apps. This is solid country gold!
Your soul is a story teller country ..thank you
My grandson is only 18 months old he loves. Watching you sing we love your music
How does he sound so good live? Amazing!
Love you Tyler Childers! And sweet Lady May! Please come back and play at Mountain Music Festival! We miss you!!!

Always loving this song... should've known it would come into play in my real life just like every song he does has.
If you hard this song without seeing it, you'd never think he was picking that way.
Off the chain brother. Wonderful....
Pride of Kentucky right here
It Breaks my heart that i wont be able to see Tyler when he (was suppose to) come to Los Angeles next month.
Doesnt get any greater than this man!
This is one of the Sickest chord progressions ever!
So damn real and raw. Love love love it.
It just does not get any better than this! Love you Tyler!!!
