My dad, stepped into my life when I was 9 months old. Ironically I stepped into my daughter’s when she was also 9 months old. I’ve always strive to be at least half the man he was. List him in 98, and not a day goes by that I don’t miss him terribly.
My son was 18 months old when I met my husband...when this song was released, it immediately became their song. Our son was in High School and came running in the house hollering...Dad, you have to hear this song! Its our story! **sitting here crying remembering the moment.
The man I call dad told me some heavy facts when I was in middle school, going in and out of depression because I didnt have my biological dad. He noticed I wasn't being myself and just staying in my room, coming out for dinner at the table. Eating quickly, asking to be excuses, and going back to my room. He said: "Son, so you know the difference between family and relatives?" "No." "Relatives are who you are related to by blood. Family is who you choose to love and be in your life." From that moment on, he has been the man I call dad. I now have a wife of my own. Our daughter, our first child, is due February 1st. I sent him this song. Both of us cried with each other. He hugged me, I told him I loved him, he said he loved me too, and that I will be an amazing dad. I told him hed be a wonderful grandad because he was a wonderful dad.
I lost the man I called dad back in 2007. I have to admit that I gave this man hell throughout my teens. I constantly disrespected him. He never faltered though and continued to treat me like I was biologically his. As we were standing in the church on my wedding day, he kissed my forehead, pulled my veil down, and told me I looked stunning. He held out his arm and said, "Are you ready?" All I said was, "Thank you for everything!" I will never forget his response. "You don't have to thank me! That's what daddies do!" ....but he didn't have to!
I lost mine in 2008 to lung cancer. Yes I did put him and my mom through alot. I was young and stupid. He never failed me. Never gave up on me. And I learned to love him.I miss him😢
The fact that you so emotionally connected to this song and allowed yourself to display what you were feeling, automatically makes you one of my favourite reactors.
I met my son when . I started dating his mom while he was 6 months old. His dad abandoned him before he was born. We have been a family since then. I never needed a piece of paper to say he was mine. My son will be 21 in August and a couple of weeks ago he surprised me with the gift that he was changing his last name because he wanted the same last name as me and my dad. And he played this song for me. The best surprise of my life. Thank you for your reaction my friend.
There's something about Brad that brings grown men to tears...I've seen it time & again...as easy as he can make you pee your pants laughing, he can break your heart( but in a good way) ... I showed my husband "waiting on a woman" and he'll never be the same.
My stepdad came into my life when I was 12. He gave up his dream of living in the country so that I could go to a better school in town. He bragged about my grades. He met my dates. He taught me how to drive. He took me fishing. He walked me down the aisle. He was the greatest grandfather to my sons. At the end of his life, he trusted me to make decisions for him. I was washing off his heated body following one of his surgeries when a nurse walked in and said she was impressed by our father-daughter bond. It brought him to tears. We lost him to cancer in 1999. I imagine your stepsons feel about you that I feel about him. Rhonda
I met my wife and my child when she was 3. She will be 17 tomorrow. I cant have children of my own but I thank God every day for putting her in my life. She said the the best. It's not blood but what's in our hearts that make us father and daughter.
This song came out about the time I adopted my oldest. (My wife's from a previous relationship) from the day we were married that 4 year old called me Dad. We have 2 sons now. The youngest is 27. Greatest complement I've ever received was when my oldest son told me "Dad I don't think I could do what you did, be a dad to someone else's kid, thank you."
Dude, you have a HUGE heart! Don't be embarrassed by your real feelings. I'm retired U.S. military, and it makes me feel good to see people like you who still have REAL feelings! And, a bonuse is that you like Home Free, my favorites!
This song always brings tears to my eyes. My biological father left me and my mother just before my third birthday. Just a little over six months later Mom re-married. He took over the fatherly duties and treated me as his own. I'm 40 years old now and there's only one man I call Dad. Thank you for everything you do ❤️
I love this song, the very first time I heard this, I was traveling down the road with my step son, he was 6 yrs old, had to pull off the road and wept, son says dad why did we stop? I told him, son?I just wanted to tell you I love you.. I also have a biological son he's a Marine and now stationed in Japan...i love them equal.
Never ever be sorry for your feelings and emotions that a beautiful song like this makes us feel. If a man can honestly admit or show what he feels is one of the best gift he can give his children be it his own or hers. You will see the fruit of it in your later years. God bless you for stepping up to be the dad you did not have to be ❤❤
I was adopted. This song rips my heart out and chews it up... EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Believe me mate, you're not the only one that bawls like a one year old without his binky.
One of your best reactions ever! Your raw emotion is why I love your reactions so much! Ill bet that you are one fantastic "dad"! Just remember ....any guy can be a father....but it takes a special guy to be a dad! Happy Fathers Day!
This is a sort of anthem for blended families. As a step-kid, thank you for being a step-parent. Don’t worry most of his songs (with a few exceptions) don’t pull at the heartstrings near as much. Most of the tears with other songs will be from laughing, not crying.
I have a step daughter and she was 1 when I met her mom and she is everything to me !!! And she is grown now but she always will be my little girl . Thank you !!!!!
When I started listening to country and heard this song, I dedicated it to my stepdad who's been there since I was 9. Now that hes gone I cry everytime I hear it. Please do more Brad Paisley!
Awww.....I love it when a man cries, especially when he sees himself in these music artists videos.... I would love to jump through that screen and hug you...and to let your wife know what an amazing guy she has....But of course she probably ALREADY knows this doesn't she? I've watched that song video several times....and I've cried each time I've seen it. WOW....you must be an amazing dad. ****************************** My sister married a man that adopted her two daughters and she adopted his son. This man was everything and ALL that those children of my sister needed. I have never EVER considered that those girls (my nieces) had any OTHER dad than the one that adopted them. I don't understand how people can have children and then for whatever reason just walk away. It happens. BOTH men & women do this..... Again, You're an amazing guy, and I don't know how old your step-sons are, but they apparently have an amazing "dad" Sorry....I don't like the term "step-dad" I never heard my nieces ever call the man that was their father anything but Dad. I know for sure they never referred to him as a "step-dad" to their friends either. I remember once when one of the girls came home with a paper she did for a class. You had to draw out your family tree. Now, this niece of mine KNEW she was adopted by her step-dad.....but when she showed that paper to her mom, my sister said to her " You know, this would be a great thing to have framed and give to your dad on Father's Day." My sister & her daughter did just that. My dad made a frame for the family tree paper. He & my niece made the frame together, and my niece painted the frame this icky blue color (her dad likes blue). That frame & family tree has a place of honor in the study of their home....right above the computer desk. I'd never seen a man cry so much as I did the Father's Day he was given that present......not ever!!! (My niece was 11 yrs old at the time) I will say that the girls have met their bio dad....and they just really aren't that interested. Sure, the relationship is there...but it's a few cards and a phone call or two. THAT's it. My brother-in-law.....is their dad....in every way possible. Thanks for sharing you are a Step-Dad.....
I first heard this song as I was driving to my foster father's funeral. I had to stop and cry. He took in a teenager and treated him as a son from day 1. I miss him every day. I listen to this song often and try to live up to his example with my own son. When you took off the headphones and said "nope can't do it" I also had to hit pause to clear my eyes. Thank you for doing this song.
I think from what I've seen those two boys have a great stepdad if you show feelings for them like you show in your reaction they are lucky to have you 👨👩👦👦👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I am very blessed to be with a man who loves my children as his own. I have an autistic daughter and he knew when he married me that we would never have an empty nest. We just got legal guardianship over her now that she’s 18 and my 20 year old idolizes him. I am a blessed woman.
Omg that was amazing. I'm a mess crying so much. My brother adopted 2 girls. I'm sure you are a wonderful dad to the boys. So beautiful. You're a great man. Happy Father's Day 💞💞💞💞💞
I think somebody has found a new anthem. loved your reaction. Brad Paisley songs are always either deep or hilarious. do more brad. you'll become a huge fan.
This song makes me cry anyway, but your reaction drives home why it's so special. There's so many songs about family and about dad, but this is the first song I've heard that celebrates step fathers. I can't find the right words for what I was going to say here. I'll just say that I'm happy for you to have a song that celebrates you.
You are so sweet. Your wife and your sons are very lucky. Brad is an awesome song writer. Do song his does with Dolly Parton Called “When I Get To Where I’m Going”. Soooo good
The very last part of this video, where you’re talking about the Star Wars cup and that it says ‘Best Dad in the Galaxy’, that says it all to your fans. It tells us that you’re doing a good job at being a step dad. Enjoy your day, Pat. God bless you and your family.
I know I reacted once already but now that I have a little bit of okay a lot of liquid courage your reaction is just one of the best. My son is always known me as his dad but is he ever finds out that I'm not his I pray to God he knows that I put my blood sweat and tears and countless nights of not sleeping making sure he knows I love him with all my heart.
Omg my heart goes out to you. I'm sitting here in tears. Kudos to you for stepping up and being a wonderful step Dad. I have cried almost every single time that I have heard this song, but seeing how you could fully relate to it was so heartwarming. Huggggs Happy Father's Day!
New subscriber. I have two kids but I was raised by my step dad. He raised 3 of us and is now raising my brother’s 2 kids. I’ve told him and I’m going to say the same to you. It takes a specific and special kind of man to raise kids as if they’re his own even though you don’t share blood. Good on you bro. Loved the reaction!
What a great reaction to a Great song! Thanks for sharing your heart & your story. Happy Fathers Day!! Keep relations to Brad coming. You won’t be disappointed & he’s a great guitar picker! So many songs to listen to...Try “ Waitin on a Woman”
This is my first time turning into you reacting to music videos. I'm so touched by your response. You're a good man. In fact, in my opinion, the world is a better place knowing that you're in it. Don't ever change. Take care
Dude...I just saw your reaction to this song...I have seen a lot of reaction videos to this song...yours is the best I have ever seen...let's me know you have a pure heart...I adopted 3 teenagers from Ukraine in 2013...the love I have for those 3 and especially the love they have returned to me blows me away and humbles me...peace my friend...keep being the Dad that you didn't have to be...the blessings are out of this world...the will last for all eternity...peace.
Great reaction! This song has always hit home for me. That's how old I was when my Dad met us and married my mom. When I turned 18, I went to court to take his last name so he'd have his name carried on. Moving song for sure! Thanks👍
That was the most genuine reaction to a song that I've seen. The brilliance and joy of music is that it can make you feel so deeply and country is one of the best genres for that. Now go tell those boys of yours how much you love them!
This hits home for me too, I am American but my stepdad is Australian. Something about hearing this song, and then your accent haha (Although he has a bit more of a Welsh accent cause thats where his parents are from. Still. Appreciate the video.
My daughter has a stepdad she loves him with all her heart and he loves her he couldn't have any kids of his own. i have a step grandpa and he was wonderful. You stepped up hon i am proud of you.
Lyle, you’re such a sweetheart. I’m so glad I found your channel! This song always makes me tear up. My sister’s husband helped raise my nephew and my nephew, who is now 46, says this song is their’s. It’s a sweet one. Brad can be pretty sneaky about pulling on the ol’ heartstrings. Your stepsons are blessed to have you. Two very lucky guys, I’m thinking. God bless you, sweet boy. I hope you have a lovely day!❤😊
It is a beautiful song. I loved it and I love the way you reacted to it. You are such a very sweet and sensitive man with a warm heart and that´s why I follow you, because your reactions come from your soul. My father and me never had a Good relationship. He spent working all the day long and we never had a conversation between father and son. He died when I was 18 and sadly I can not say I miss him. I bet you are a great daddybear and you love your kids very much. They are lucky to have you like their Dad. happy Dad´s day Lyle!!! Hugs from Barcelona.
I feel you brother i have 4 adopted children.. ages 7, 7, 9,12. All girls! My wife and i adopted these kids from really bad situations. They're all happy and healthy now living here in Wyoming..♥️♥️
I watched the reaction to this cause I've now become a Step-Dad. I'm adopted by my Step-Dad, this song is timeless in that there are always men willing to put kids that's aren't theirs ahead of themselves.
I am a stepson. This song hits me the same way. Your reaction is why I subscribed. You are a good human being if you can react honestly to this song. Anyone who shows no emotion either doesn't share the experience from either side, or may lack empathy. Brad Paisley is one of my favorite country artists, check out more of his material. It's not all like this. Most of it has a nice comedic twist that you can appreciate.
The reaction tells us that you are a wonderful stepdad.
I'm very sorry to correct you, but seeing the reaction, he is a DAD, not a stepdad.
I agree on the rest of your comment, though.
Lucrezia Quoti he literally says he’s a stepdad to two boys @ 3:07.
@@qrams I know, but for how he talks about them, he is just like their dad.
That's what I meant.
Lucrezia Quoti ahhh, internet makes it hard to understand tone. but very true.
Your not a Step Dad your the Dad that stepped up!!!!! Great job!
My dad, stepped into my life when I was 9 months old. Ironically I stepped into my daughter’s when she was also 9 months old. I’ve always strive to be at least half the man he was. List him in 98, and not a day goes by that I don’t miss him terribly.
My son was 18 months old when I met my husband...when this song was released, it immediately became their song. Our son was in High School and came running in the house hollering...Dad, you have to hear this song! Its our story! **sitting here crying remembering the moment.
Why'd I read this comment after I stopped crying? Now I'm crying again.
What a sweet story! The damn Ninjas came through chopping onions while I read your comment!😭 (Good years)💕
Amazing
I’m adopted. I first heard this song while driving and I started crying so hard that I had to pull off the road and stop.
we can pick who our family is sometime.
The man I call dad told me some heavy facts when I was in middle school, going in and out of depression because I didnt have my biological dad. He noticed I wasn't being myself and just staying in my room, coming out for dinner at the table. Eating quickly, asking to be excuses, and going back to my room. He said:
"Son, so you know the difference between family and relatives?"
"No."
"Relatives are who you are related to by blood. Family is who you choose to love and be in your life."
From that moment on, he has been the man I call dad. I now have a wife of my own. Our daughter, our first child, is due February 1st. I sent him this song. Both of us cried with each other. He hugged me, I told him I loved him, he said he loved me too, and that I will be an amazing dad. I told him hed be a wonderful grandad because he was a wonderful dad.
I know how that is, man. That's how it was the first time I heard it......and every other time after that.
me, too
I lost the man I called dad back in 2007. I have to admit that I gave this man hell throughout my teens. I constantly disrespected him. He never faltered though and continued to treat me like I was biologically his. As we were standing in the church on my wedding day, he kissed my forehead, pulled my veil down, and told me I looked stunning. He held out his arm and said, "Are you ready?" All I said was, "Thank you for everything!" I will never forget his response. "You don't have to thank me! That's what daddies do!" ....but he didn't have to!
You gave me a breathing problem for a second. That got to me.
I’m not crying you are
I know you ill never be the same after watching this video.
I lost mine in 2008 to lung cancer. Yes I did put him and my mom through alot. I was young and stupid. He never failed me. Never gave up on me. And I learned to love him.I miss him😢
The fact that you so emotionally connected to this song and allowed yourself to display what you were feeling, automatically makes you one of my favourite reactors.
Alright, who's cutting the onions? Go give your boys a big hug!
This is the most beautiful heartfelt reaction - I have ever seen-- You sir are an Awesome Dad -- and Man -- Thank you for showing us your heart!!
God Bless You for showing your emotion!! NEVER EVER feel ashamed!!
I am a step father too, and when he called me DAD for the first time it meant the world to me
I met my son when . I started dating his mom while he was 6 months old. His dad abandoned him before he was born. We have been a family since then. I never needed a piece of paper to say he was mine. My son will be 21 in August and a couple of weeks ago he surprised me with the gift that he was changing his last name because he wanted the same last name as me and my dad. And he played this song for me. The best surprise of my life. Thank you for your reaction my friend.
Ur reaction was so raw n hard 2 watch...u must be a awesome dad 2 those kids....god bless u! ♥️
This heartfelt reaction made me a subscriber. From Georgia, USA - you are a great man indeed for being the man you didn't have to be. 🥰
There's something about Brad that brings grown men to tears...I've seen it time & again...as easy as he can make you pee your pants laughing, he can break your heart( but in a good way) ... I showed my husband "waiting on a woman" and he'll never be the same.
Every day is Father's day if you're a dad. Blessed, aren't we!
My stepdad came into my life when I was 12. He gave up his dream of living in the country so that I could go to a better school in town. He bragged about my grades. He met my dates. He taught me how to drive. He took me fishing. He walked me down the aisle. He was the greatest grandfather to my sons. At the end of his life, he trusted me to make decisions for him. I was washing off his heated body following one of his surgeries when a nurse walked in and said she was impressed by our father-daughter bond. It brought him to tears. We lost him to cancer in 1999. I imagine your stepsons feel about you that I feel about him. Rhonda
God Bless you, and the boys.
I met my wife and my child when she was 3. She will be 17 tomorrow. I cant have children of my own but I thank God every day for putting her in my life. She said the the best. It's not blood but what's in our hearts that make us father and daughter.
Thankful you take your role in their life seriously. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼

Your a big man with a big heart!!! You said you are step dad to two boys. All I can say is lucky boys. God's Blessings
I love this song, the very first time I heard this, I was traveling down the road with my step son, he was 6 yrs old, had to pull off the road and wept, son says dad why did we stop? I told him, son?I just wanted to tell you I love you..
I also have a biological son he's a Marine and now stationed in Japan...i love them equal.
You kid is happy to have you. My biggest wish in this world is to be a father
Crying along with you. My stepdad was my world.
Awww hugs to you for stepping up for your boys. Let your feelings go. We`'ll cry with you.
Never ever be sorry for your feelings and emotions that a beautiful song like this makes us feel. If a man can honestly admit or show what he feels is one of the best gift he can give his children be it his own or hers. You will see the fruit of it in your later years. God bless you for stepping up to be the dad you did not have to be ❤❤
Country music gives us amazing stories. Thank you
Thank you for being willing to be a father-by-heart.
You’re a good man, never be afraid to cry
I was adopted. This song rips my heart out and chews it up... EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Believe me mate, you're not the only one that bawls like a one year old without his binky.
Every time.....I'm in the same boat as you. I I'm past the half century line but it hit me like wrecking ball all the same.
From the States. "Good on you mate!" I hope they treasure the dad they have... that didn't have to be.
One of your best reactions ever! Your raw emotion is why I love your reactions so much! Ill bet that you are one fantastic "dad"! Just remember ....any guy can be a father....but it takes a special guy to be a dad! Happy Fathers Day!
i agree any guy can be a father but it takes a MAN to be a dad
Damn dude, your reaction made me cry.
This is a sort of anthem for blended families. As a step-kid, thank you for being a step-parent. Don’t worry most of his songs (with a few exceptions) don’t pull at the heartstrings near as much. Most of the tears with other songs will be from laughing, not crying.
I met the man I call my dad when I was 8. He was the one who taught me how to be the man I am today! In my eyes, there is no step, he is just my Dad.
What a wonderful and beautiful reaction from you. From the heart....from the soul. You are an incredible man !!
I have a step daughter and she was 1 when I met her mom and she is everything to me !!! And she is grown now but she always will be my little girl . Thank you !!!!!
Our Pops married our mom with 6 kids. 5 were teenagers! We were blessed and all of the siblings took care of him until he passed. We miss him so much.
I love how emotional you get. Don't change, you're perfect.
Let those emotions go my friend. It HELPS EVERYONE! Thank you... for being you, and helping raise those boys. *HUGS*
When I started listening to country and heard this song, I dedicated it to my stepdad who's been there since I was 9. Now that hes gone I cry everytime I hear it. Please do more Brad Paisley!
I love the guy. He touches us where it really moves us in his songs. Yes, I wish he'd do more.
Awww.....I love it when a man cries, especially when he sees himself in these music artists videos....
I would love to jump through that screen and hug you...and to let your wife know what an amazing guy she has....But of course she probably ALREADY knows this doesn't she?
I've watched that song video several times....and I've cried each time I've seen it.
WOW....you must be an amazing dad.

Man, you had me tearing up! I LOVE this song! For something lighter from Brad Paisley, try I'm Gonna Miss Her. Happy Father's Day! :)
Yes! This will make you laugh!
I'm gonna miss her is a really fun song. Alcohol is another one. I think his funniest song is "still a guy"
@@mikegagnon4007 I agree with all three!
Mud on the tires has become a trademark of his as well.
Happy Father's Day!!! (I'm not crying, You're crying!!) Go Love on them boys!!! And, Yeah, do more Brad Paisley!
A man who gets that emotional is a real man and father.
I first heard this song as I was driving to my foster father's funeral. I had to stop and cry. He took in a teenager and treated him as a son from day 1. I miss him every day. I listen to this song often and try to live up to his example with my own son. When you took off the headphones and said "nope can't do it" I also had to hit pause to clear my eyes. Thank you for doing this song.
Country music always tells a story. Sometimes it's yours.
I think from what I've seen those two boys have a great stepdad if you show feelings for them like you show in your reaction they are lucky to have you 👨👩👦👦👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Country music sure can get you right in the feels, can't it?
I am very blessed to be with a man who loves my children as his own. I have an autistic daughter and he knew when he married me that we would never have an empty nest. We just got legal guardianship over her now that she’s 18 and my 20 year old idolizes him. I am a blessed woman.
Good Dad's don't have to be blood! Love fits anywhere. I cried too.
I'm a 78 year old, 6'4'' 230 old time trucker and this always makes me tear up. Just go with it
Omg that was amazing. I'm a mess crying so much. My brother adopted 2 girls. I'm sure you are a wonderful dad to the boys. So beautiful. You're a great man. Happy Father's Day 💞💞💞💞💞
I love you Pat! Seriously! I know I’m late, but Happy Father’s Day! I’m sure your two kids will remember your love forever! ❤️
I think somebody has found a new anthem. loved your reaction. Brad Paisley songs are always either deep or hilarious. do more brad. you'll become a huge fan.
Oh you sweet man! ❤😭❤ You had me crying along with you! 🥰 Precious reaction! Your sons are very fortunate. 😉
You have a great heart.Do not think you cannot be the Dad you do not have to be.
Such a sweet song.
This song makes me cry anyway, but your reaction drives home why it's so special. There's so many songs about family and about dad, but this is the first song I've heard that celebrates step fathers.

You are so sweet. Your wife and your sons are very lucky.
Brad is an awesome song writer.
Do song his does with Dolly Parton
Called “When I Get To Where I’m Going”. Soooo good
From one step-dad to another.... thank you, brother. I know your boys will realize how much you've loved them.
Seeing the tears in your eyes says everything...
Such a heartfelt reaction. Being a stepparent takes a special kind of person. 💕
The very last part of this video, where you’re talking about the Star Wars cup and that it says ‘Best Dad in the Galaxy’, that says it all to your fans. It tells us that you’re doing a good job at being a step dad. Enjoy your day, Pat. God bless you and your family.

this hits me hard because I'm with a girl of 4yrs that has a boy from a previous relationship and he is my whole world 😢😢😭😭

You can't go wrong with Brad Paisley , He has a lot of funny songs as well as tear jerkers, Happy Fathers Day to you!
watching your reaction ... NO DOUBT you are every bit the father that the step dad was in the song ... well done mate!
God bless you for taking the tough job. We need more men like you. Happy Father Day. Brad Paisley is great.
Omg my heart goes out to you. I'm sitting here in tears. Kudos to you for stepping up and being a wonderful step Dad. I have cried almost every single time that I have heard this song, but seeing how you could fully relate to it was so heartwarming. Huggggs Happy Father's Day!
New subscriber. I have two kids but I was raised by my step dad. He raised 3 of us and is now raising my brother’s 2 kids. I’ve told him and I’m going to say the same to you. It takes a specific and special kind of man to raise kids as if they’re his own even though you don’t share blood. Good on you bro. Loved the reaction!
What a great reaction to a Great song! Thanks for sharing your heart & your story. Happy Fathers Day!! Keep relations to Brad coming. You won’t be disappointed & he’s a great guitar picker! So many songs to listen to...Try “ Waitin on a Woman”
Thats reactions not relations. My “spell check” changed my comment
This is my first time turning into you reacting to music videos. I'm so touched by your response. You're a good man. In fact, in my opinion, the world is a better place knowing that you're in it. Don't ever change. Take care
Dude...I just saw your reaction to this song...I have seen a lot of reaction videos to this song...yours is the best I have ever seen...let's me know you have a pure heart...I adopted 3 teenagers from Ukraine in 2013...the love I have for those 3 and especially the love they have returned to me blows me away and humbles me...peace my friend...keep being the Dad that you didn't have to be...the blessings are out of this world...the will last for all eternity...peace.
Great reaction! This song has always hit home for me. That's how old I was when my Dad met us and married my mom. When I turned 18, I went to court to take his last name so he'd have his name carried on. Moving song for sure! Thanks👍
That was the most genuine reaction to a song that I've seen. The brilliance and joy of music is that it can make you feel so deeply and country is one of the best genres for that. Now go tell those boys of yours how much you love them!
Your a special man, hug your family. This is my first ever comment.
This hits home for me too, I am American but my stepdad is Australian. Something about hearing this song, and then your accent haha (Although he has a bit more of a Welsh accent cause thats where his parents are from. Still. Appreciate the video.
I lost the man I call Dad 10yrs ago, and if my other half is even half the dad he was when we have kids he will be wonderful
Brad Paisley... 'Waitin' On a Woman.' PLEASE
Absolutely love Brad Paisley!
I've watched your reaction to this song, about three times now. All I can say, is God bless you, my friend.
My daughter has a stepdad she loves him with all her heart and he loves her he couldn't have any kids of his own. i have a step grandpa and he was wonderful. You stepped up hon i am proud of you.
Brad Paisley is a great singer/songwriter, it amazes me when someone can write those songs that touch us so deeply, so emotionally.
Lyle, you’re such a sweetheart. I’m so glad I found your channel! This song always makes me tear up. My sister’s husband helped raise my nephew and my nephew, who is now 46, says this song is their’s. It’s a sweet one. Brad can be pretty sneaky about pulling on the ol’ heartstrings. Your stepsons are blessed to have you. Two very lucky guys, I’m thinking. God bless you, sweet boy. I hope you have a lovely day!❤😊
It is a beautiful song. I loved it and I love the way you reacted to it. You are such a very sweet and sensitive man with a warm heart and that´s why I follow you, because your reactions come from your soul.
My father and me never had a Good relationship. He spent working all the day long and we never had a conversation between father and son. He died when I was 18 and sadly I can not say I miss him.
I bet you are a great daddybear and you love your kids very much. They are lucky to have you like their Dad.
happy Dad´s day Lyle!!! Hugs from Barcelona.
Many hugs and Happy Father's Day I was raised by a stepfather till I was like 11 or 12 I have recently found my real father in like the last year
I feel you brother i have 4 adopted children.. ages 7, 7, 9,12. All girls! My wife and i adopted these kids from really bad situations. They're all happy and healthy now living here in Wyoming..♥️♥️
Brother this is what country music is...real life and songs that make you feel
I watched the reaction to this cause I've now become a Step-Dad. I'm adopted by my Step-Dad, this song is timeless in that there are always men willing to put kids that's aren't theirs ahead of themselves.
Tribute to all those wonderful step dads out there. Thank you to all of you.
Terrific song
You know a song is good when it touches your soul!! Great job Dsddy!!
I am a stepson. This song hits me the same way. Your reaction is why I subscribed. You are a good human being if you can react honestly to this song. Anyone who shows no emotion either doesn't share the experience from either side, or may lack empathy. Brad Paisley is one of my favorite country artists, check out more of his material. It's not all like this. Most of it has a nice comedic twist that you can appreciate.
Your reaction here is now one of my favorite reactions I have Ever seen . Much appreciation to your channel .
