![[New] Staind - The Making of Staind Documentary](/img/1.gif)
Are you more of a Staind fan or more of an Aaron Lewis fan?
Yes
I respect Aaron as an artist, but I'm personally more of a staind fan. I've seen them twice live and both times were awesome!
Btw, rock feed brought me here!
Actually I’m both into American Hard Rock/Heavy Metal & Country music so I frankly enjoy & Respect Aaron’s amazing talents for giving both respective genres a necessary shot in the arms within the industry; speaking of which, my favorite songs of his are “Country Boy” , “Party in Hell” & the self explanatory “That Ain’t Country”👦 🤩 😻🥲 ✊ 😉 😊 ☺️ 🎶 🎼 🎵 🤘 🇺🇸
On a side note, I actually remember that after many unfruitful tries, when Staind was ready to release their self titled last album, guitarist Mike Mushok was finally given the long awaited opportunity to come alive & bust loose as the amazing Lead Guitarist that he definitely is, and it PAYED OFF 🎸 📝
What draws me to Aaron Lewis is his sing writing abilities. He writes most of his music that resonates to millions of people. Since his crossover to country, I grew to appreciate his talent both rock and country. And we have been to 4-5 concerts of his and never been disappointed. I will always be fan of Aaron Lewis!
@@carlosjtorotorres5451 Thank you for mentioning Mike. He is easily one of the most underrated guitar players of the last 30 years. That Nu Metal crunch sound he has is absolutely one of a kind: Even though most of their songs don’t feature long solos or anything. The few chances he gets to shred, he absolutely kills it! Mike is the man!
I’m a metal guy but I love Aaron’s solo country albums. He can’t write a bad song. I’ve seen him twice on his last two tours and he’s amazing. Plus I love his Patriotism and his support for us veterans.
You ever put a gun on your back?!?!?
"War will cease when men refuse to fight"
Same here and I totally agree with you.
Right on ! 😁👍🏻🤟🏻
$$$$
This is why I really love Aaron. He's a patriot, old school, Father of 3 daughters, conservative, keeps country alive and is really true to himself.
I don’t think anyone feels the pain in their lyrics while they sing like Aaron does. He often looks like he’s going to burst into tears. His range is amazing. He can go straight from a harsh high pitch scream into soft quiet singing and back and forth. I was lucky to see him live in a bar in 2010.
Aaron Lewis blew me away when he covered “what hurts the most”
That was absolutely amazing
Gives me chills.
I'm pretty sure he wrote it too but I agree it was awesome
Absolutely amazing performance.
@@TylerDaMan62 his buddy wrote it Jeffery Steele a county music songwriting king. Jeffery wrote a lot on this new album too
A real American patriot. He just continues to do what he was born to do. I'm now a bigger fan.
One of the greatest ever. Not afraid to tell the truth , a rare quality today.
Lol
💯still #1 on my Playlist 💜
Yep
As he sees it lol
Nahhh, not even close.
Aaron is one of the best artists out there. My husband (a metalhead) and I (a country girl) have now seen him 5 times in concert. He’s a true patriot, and SO MUCH BETTER than what the “industry” puts out there! 🇺🇸❤️
I'm jealous! I haven't gotten the chance yet!
A true patriot with a 25,000,000 house built on your back and no military service . Yay patriotism !!
The true patriots don’t wear shirts that say “f the sittint president”
Aaron Lewis is such a huge breath of fresh air. He plays and writes what he wants, his own way, and people love him for it.
I have found memories with BJ (that’s what we called Aaron growing up) on Hampton beach, hanging out at midnight playing acoustic under the moon. It was 92 and he was crushing Pearl Jam songs. Great days! Thx Aaron for following your dreams, I miss playing Adams family pinball with you! Love Tim & Jackie Power
My sons and I, just absolutely love Aaron.
Hampton Beach Casino was visited by many a great musician in that area. I grew up in Concord and remember the days of Aerosmith playing small local venues. Good times!
I was working a Staind show as a stagehand sometime around 2008 here in Virginia Beach. I remember sitting during a lunchbreak on the loading dock backstage between some road cases and saw/heard Mike Mushok working on a new riff just a few feet from me. Aaron Lewis walked over and Mushok asked him to sit down. The two of them jammed for a few minutes on guitars before they went off somewhere. I have no idea what song it turned into, whether or not it was ever recorded, and probably wouldn't recognize it if I heard it again, but it was cool to see and hear the creative process in action. I kept my mouth shut, not speaking a word, and laid low between the road cases. I doubt they even knew I was there and, if they did, they couldn't care less. That was a good day at work.
Aye my great grandma lives in VA Beach. I’m in Texas lol
they knew you were there. performers love an audience (preferrably a quiet, attentive audience vs. the loud-mouth drunks they have to play to in concert)
It’s 2024 and he’s still putting out bangers. If you have the chance to see him perform you won’t be disappointed. He loves America and doesn’t give a damn if you get offended by the truth or not. God bless Aaron Lewis.
Just love his love of our country! He is real ! What we need as an intertainer. No shame of his right to say and believe what he thinks. I also love his music. I am 74 and proud to say he deserves all the fame he is getting.May God bless his success continuously!
Judy I’m right behind you at 68 and he is a favorite of mine. He is a great writer and singer and his Attitude is great too!
@@lmarks54 There is NOTHING that I would love to see more than my grandma ROCKIN' OUT to Aaron Lewis....You ladies are proof that I will still be a country rocker when I grow up🤣😎🤣😎🤣
I'm 77 and I love Am I the only one!!!!
God , or quanin
I love Aaron Lewis and his music...it sometimes touches my soul, sometimes punches it, but always touches me. His voice is amazing. You can hear the emotion.
Exactly✊🏻
If someone punches your soul you can sue
@@scottgarvey3253 🤣
He is absolutely my favorite his 0 fks attitude his lyrics hit home and bore right to your soul. Whether rocking or his country that is country how it should be. Keep cranking out hits Aaron!!
We saw him last summer in Louisiana. He was amazing!!
@@mollygrahamsmith2449 Just saw him in Baton Rouge. Great show
@Lee. I'm sorry you felt pain. I'm glad you doing better now. And, Dana. I remembered how good Aaron rocked out well. How sometimes did bitched about his life at one point. It's cool that Aaron like country too now.
Aaron is the man.. I'll listen to him sing anything and he doesn't give a shit what you think.. epiphany is one of my all time favorite songs, those lyrics hit home personally
Loved him in Staind now he’s killing it in country
Aaron Lewis got me to listening to Texas and Red dirt country and I discovered that I had been missing out on some great music. I grew up listening to the greats with my Dad. With Bob Wills and Earnest Tubb being my first live concert. I was very young. As I became a teenager in the 80's I rebelled and got into Rock and Roll Saw many great bands including Stevie Ray Vaughn, Van Halen, the Scorpions, Kiss, and Def Leppard just to name a few. Having a family and working on the road i didn't get to make very many concerts later on, but constantly listened to music. Couldn't stand rap, or hip hop country, and one night I came across Aaron doing some country songs. After that the rest is history, I live in Texas and we have a great live music scene, especially in the summer. I will be seeing him in Amarillo in August.
Aaron Lewis' music helped me through my darkest times. Favorite Staind song is tough to think of. I love their whole catalog. As for the solo country career, Lost and Lonely is just too beautiful
I still live right in Rutland county. He proves that our little state isn't as "blue" as everyone thinks. Fucking love this man and what he represents.
I don't think any of the blue states or as blue as the media wants you to believe and the reason why I say that is I never really questioned elections until the last one let me also add I live in Florida and the area I live in is made of people mainly from Blue States California Wisconsin Michigan New York New Jersey and Massachusetts plus I live right by the second largest cruise ship port in the world I meet people from all over the US I don't care where they're from if I talk to 100 people maybe one of them Voted for This illegitimate repulsively disgusting pandering babbling piece of s*** that's in the White House now
@@craigherbert6640 LET'S GO BRANDON!!!
"Am I the only one" is my favorite!!!
That's really close to #1 for me too but "It's been awhile" is still my fave!! ❤
His music meant a lot to me when I was in my early 20's. Now at 42, I listen to songs like Zoe Jane and think of my little girl. I love his songs about his faith. Shows he is not afaird to speak his mind no matter what.
True.
Nailed it right here bro, I feel the same Zoe Jane is an song who if any father who has a daughter listens to will think of there daughter too.
What is his faith?
My daughter’s mom and myself use our daughter’s name when we sing that song.
Aaron Lewis is a real man and a great musician who deserves more than he's getting. Compare him to somebody like Taylor Swift and there's no comparison he is so much better!
@@entransify opinions are like assholes everybody's got one they all stink!
he likes to tell his audience what he likes to hear. the only thing he ever did for this country was whine about his dad behind an electric guitar and now he whines about liberals behind an acoustic guitar.
@@johnrife7134 you sound very jealous
@@johnrife7134spoken like a true Biden fanboy
He has been my favorite artist since I was about 11….. I always listened to country and rock so I feel like his transition into country was so natural!! I still think he sounds better in person than recorded!! Just amazing vocals
@Jedimaster420 hahaha, I was 11 about 17 years ago but thanks 😂
He brought me back to county music after I stopped listening to it in the late 90’s
Aaron speaks for a lot of us, and puts to shame a lot of country artists who you know feel the same way but are afraid to rock the boat. He ain't the only one.
My son tried to introduce me to him early on, but I never really listened to him until "country boy", loved it, then went back and listened to more of stained, loved " it's been awhile", I had to apologize to my son.
Honestly never really heared of him since "Am I The Only One" and just want to say: No, Aaron, you're not the only one.
You must live under a fucking rock.
Hell yeah he's not. FJB
My wife and I see him every time he comes to town, which is at least once a year... Just a phenomenal live show, whether he's with Stand or by himself...
He is a true patriot 💪
I was at that show when he had the crowd yelling ef Chairman kiddy sniffer. Best show I've seen and I've been to a lot of concerts. Been a big fan since Staind and honestly he's definitely contributed to me getting back into new country music before him I thought all the great country artists where dead or retired.
Awesome name bro, but your not the last. Much love from the bay state:)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE AARON LEWIS. I LOVED HIM WITH STAINED BUT I LOVE HIM MORE WITH COUNTRY!! VERY TALENTED
I went to see Korn and Staind last year. Of all the concerts I’ve been, have never had an out of body experience until I seen Staind. Mudshovel talks to my spirit.
My first real concert I ever went to was Staind headlining their tour for Dysfuncinal at a rat hole bar in Knoxville TN. I was so blown away. they even covered Sober by TOOL. I went to walmart at 2AM and bought the album.
Dysfunctional * learn how to spell.
@@tma4137 Chill! Maybe it was a typo. Or not. Nobody cares!
Love Aaron......I love his truth!..my son and I grew up w this guy! Country..rock..grunge...Aaron Lewis all the way! 🌹 stained forever! 🌹
Best singer-songwriter alive! In my favorite since 1999! Aaron's music has saved me many times has inspired me to write my own songs and pursue this dream! I had the chance to meet him once and thanked him. Very humble guy from my home state
I've seen Aaron Lewis MANY times, with Staind,Solo,Solo Acoustic, With a band,and even a country gig. And my country music stays w Willie,Hank Jr,Waylon Jennings Johnny Cash etc. THAT IS COUNTRY.....I hated that Aaron went country but he is absolutely INCREDIBLE live and I've left every show blown tf away by how insanely talented he is and his ability to cover songs so well they bring tears to your eyes. Aaron Lewis is an amazing artist and an American Patriot
The guy can write and has an amazing voice. I think the success of Staind allowed him to transition to Country and do it his way cause he doesn't need the money. Regardless, I am a huge fan of everything he does. Very talented man.
"Country Boy (Acoustic Version)", "Party In Hell", "Sunday Every Saturday Night" and his cover of "Whiskey & You" are my all-time favorite songs from him so far. I've been a huge fan of Staind since 2000, but once I heard "Country Boy" in 2012, he officially turned me on to country music. Aaron Lewis--whether you like him or not--is one of the most important, one-of-a-kind voices in music today. But hey, that's just, like, my opinion, man. 😎
mudshovel was the first stained song I Heard. fell in love with the band at that song.
One of the greatest voices of the last 30 years
Love staind and Aaron lewis solo work
Has been my favorite voice for about 20 years!! I’m going to see him in 12 days & I am so excited!!!
Just discovered Aaron Lewis as a country singer! His lyrics and voice are extraordinary! He's a truth teller and there are very few left in country music!! He and Buddy Brown are two of the best!
I was born and raised in the forest park neighborhood of Springfield mass, right next to the border of east longmeadow and subsequently, longmeadow… town line came out when I was 11, and being a country fan and a blue collar boy from western mass it and all his other albums were a staple in my childhood growing up, I went to as many of his concerts as I could whenever he would come to the mass mutual center in downtown Springfield… still to this day it’s a bit of a stamp of pride for a lot of people like me that Aaron’s stomping grounds (at least partially) are the same ones we had
I've been to a ton of Concerts in Springfield but it wasn't called that back in the 70s. It was the Springfield Civic Center and a GREAT place to see a concert. I saw a lot at The Boston Garden too!
"Am I the only one" is badass, And my favorite!!
It is how I came to know AL.
I’m from Sweden and I love Stain ever since they came out I was a little bit suspicious when Aaron came out with a country EP but of course I bought it and got hooked straight away funny tho because country really wasn’t my thing but Aaron turned me around.
He is not only a real superstar he is also the rebellion we all seek you know a strong independent man who speak up and questions thing
Aaron is awesome and thanks for all the good music you make and share to us
He’s always been my favorite ever, I love his voice and music..♥️
Saw him last night in Gardnerville NV. He seems very much down to earth. A regular man who makes a living playing guitar and singing. Very humble experience.
I am an AAron Lewis fan, Staind or Solo. He is incredibly talented. There are not many artists you can see live the sound just like a recording. he is the Bomb!
I am a big fan of country music but I enjoy taking a break from country with a little rock on occasion. Either way I think Aaron Lewis has a great voice.
The concert that "Outside live" was recorded at is where he wrote the final version if outside and he wrote it on stage.
Yes, he had the chorus done but freestyled everything else. Fred pushed him to do so that night.
We need more Aaron Lewis and Kid Rock's
Yesssss!!!! Let’s Goooo!!
Tom Macdonald is a true story teller too. Only rap but it's great!
Aaron has two of my all time favorite versus, in a song. As I love to many songs to list.
1.) I can not blame this on my father, he did the best he could for me. (Starts to well up)
2.)But I can still remember just the way you taste. (Mouth starts to water)
14 shades of grey was so underrated. My favorite album by them …
Aaron Lewis is an amazing and talented artist! Absolutely love his music!
I am hoping he will do another album with Staind. They have been one of my favorite bands for years. I am not a fan of country music, but I have more respect for him than ever for speaking out against the Democrats.
Bro your name is amazing! Love it dude! I agree with your comment and your name. I would love to see them go at it
He’s just an old school country boy, his country music hits different than the rest
Totally agree,but 75.And a couple more that I can’t think of are pretty damn good.
@@coreyl9251 dang right man
To my knowledge they are touring and they will be doing another album actually Aaron lives in Worthington Massachusetts which is maybe a half hour away from me I knew him since 1992 he was good friends with my brother when he lived in Forest Park actually Kimberly Street so don't listen to this more Ronnie has no clue what he's talking about when it comes to Aaron he's probably reading it off of Wikipedia which is wrong Aaron has three kids I know a lot about Aaron I actually got his phone number go figure oh and he's a huge golfer too they didn't tell you that he loves hunting and he loves golf and he loves to fish oh that guy left this out
Aaron Lewis was what brought me back to country music that my dad listene to as I grew up. Aaron Lewis opened the doors for many real country performers that are in the business to not be told by corparate execs what to play.
This is a message that the American people need to understand. Stand up and follow your heart and think for yourself!
"Someone" is one of my new, favorite songs. It touched my soul. Aaron has a way of doing that like no one else.
He is a damn real one . Im glad he showed real country can still be played . Hope it sparks some future outlaws
I love and respect Aaron Lewis. It was not until I heard Am I the Only One that I discovered him. I’m sorry I missed his journey but I am definitely following him now. I not only think he has one of the best vocals I’ve ever heard but respect his courage and his values. I am in love with Aaron Lewis as a man and musician. God Bless You Aaron and Thank You!
Aaron's music is one of my favorite songwriters on earth. I'll always support him
He is one of the most underrated musicians/vocalist of this century.
Favorite Aaron Lewis song?…..every single one
Answer of the day right here!
Exactly! Saw him live in Florida a few times now. Dudes the realist. And I’m surprised how good he sings considering he smoked the entire show everytime I’ve seen him
I’m a metal head to the core but Aaron Lewis country songs give me down back home vibes and I can’t help but blare them through my stereo in my truck while driving down the road.
When I first heard Aaron was starting a solo country career I didn’t know much about him. Other than a few staind songs I’ve heard. I rolled my eyes. I thought it was gonna be another Steven Tyler deal. Cashing in on the country hype. God I’m sure glad I was wrong. He’s now one of my favorite country artists.
Been a fan since staind started and a fan still today. Laid back no fucks given true to his roots.
Same age ,same upbringing ,same political beliefs , gotta love this guy.
lol...HE WAS A RICH KID....
Frayed at both ends is an awesome album. I believe it is the best work of any artist and I feel most of the songs on there should cover at least the top five on the billboards. I wasn't much of a country music fan until I heard Aaron Lewis
I agree.. from start to finish it's in my top 5 albums. Not 1 song that id skip
I've been a LONG time fan of Aaron Lewis. Doesn't matter if it's him being in Staind or his solo country stuff, I love it all. The guy is talented as all get out. I will always love what he does for as long as I live.
Been with Aaron since Break the Cycle and I gotta say he is one of the best. He writes from the heart and he has a superb sound. The simplicity of his playing is not be looked down upon either, it's solid and clean and without a doubt a great crossover artist. I would go see him under any genre.
yes. the voice is electrifying. on acoustic guitar he has no peers
same here!
I’m a fan of country rock metal and pop and Arron Lewis is one of my favorite artist period
I just played the "history lesson" recording for my husband! I judge it heartfelt and mostly accurate 😀!
"So far Away" is my favorite, but there are so many. I feel blessed by his music.. thank you Aaron Lewis!
This man is a master song writer. The best in the game hands down
You must be high 🤠
When Im gone is one of the best songs ever penned
I'm a HUGE fan of Staind. I hadn't realized that he launched a career in country until I heard "Am I the only one?" He has a phenomenal voice and a great mover with his lyrics. There's been a lot of Rock Stars that crossed over to Country and vice versa. Some made it a long career, some just an album. Jerry Lee Lewis, Kenny Rogers was with The First Edition, Darius Rucker from Hootie, Kid Rock, Bon Jovi, Bret Michaels from Poison. I think country has come a long way from the old days and is more like rock than not. I never cared for the old Country but LOVE the new stuff! ❤️
Wether you like his music solo or with staind you need to respect his love for this country. And yes I like both his solo stuff and with staind
No matter what he sings he kills it. Amazing love him and his music.. so I feel safe to say aaron lewis is the BEST of the BEST❤❤
Aaron is one of the few who did it his way from day one. he is more than a rock star or country star. in my opinion he is the lone wolf of modern music.
I equally like the whole Aaron Lewis experience. Great in concert, cant wait to see him in St Louis again TRUE PATRIOT!
Like both, but more an Aaron Lewis fan. His acoustic tour was amazing. His songs speaks to your soul.
Aaron Lewis is the reason why I love country music now, I never was a fan I usually listen to rock or metal and of course Staind being one of the many, and when I discovered he did a country song I was blown away. He's such an amazing lyricist and singer and his latest album Frayed at Both Ends I must say is the Country album of the year.
Hi Bailey, I very much like how Aaron is himself. He likes what he likes.
I grew up on the other side of Spfld Mass from Aaron and am a HUGE fan!! I knew Chris, he came over to my house one day an jammed for us....Best Time of my life! Love Everything Aaron does!! He's a TRUE AMERICAN!! 🇺🇲💯👍💖🎸😁 Maybe one day I'll get one of my bucket list things erased by meeting Aaron!! 👍🎸💯🇺🇲😁👍
As a berkshire native, his song Massachusetts is one I hold dear to my heart. I moved down south for a number of years and Aaron Lewis music got me through being away from home. A fellow Masshole. FjB
Aaron has been an inspiration to me. From the beginning to today, I still listen to all of his music and will for a long time from now.
It's been a while absolutely my favorite Staind, and Am I the Only One is my absolute favorite of any songs right now.
I’m very proud of you and you’ve done a lot of things you can years ago but at least you never let anything stand in your way
I have seen Staind over 20 times and Aaron Lewis solo at least 10 times. (Staind w/ Korn and Aaron twice in 2021). My favorite song is Am I the only one and Spleen for Staind. My wife and I had our 1st dance at our wedding to Tangled up in you. My best story is was I was asked by a friend to meet him @ a local casino for drinks and to my surprise, there was a stool and a guitar sitting next to the bar and about 20 min later Aaron walked it... He played for about an hour or so. It was PHENOMENAL!!!!
I love country music. And Aaron Lewis is the best of all in country music. I'm grateful to know how he got where he is now. He's a hatdworker 🎉❤. Definitely you have my attention and how impressive you are. Thank you for being you.
I never knew of stained, and whst i heard, it isn't for me. As a country singer, Aaron crushes it. Am i the only one is heartfelt and spot on.
Staind songs were therapy for me in my teenage years, and gave me something to relate. I still listen to all those old songs and feel every word, every drum hit, every bass slap.
Timeless
Am I the only one makes me tear up ❤🙏🇺🇸 Thank you Aaron Lewis you’re right up there.👏
I love you Lauren i ailways said everyone needs a someone glad your mine.loving u always
I loved this video. Thank you . I knew this guy back early 2000’s great guy. True American
I love this man! Aaron Lewis is a legend in my book! I love what he stands for and I love his music!
Granddaddies Gun is a great song and watching the video can bring me to tears thinking about my pop and grandpa
in the mid 90's, friends and I would go to the small bars in Springfield and watch them play cover tunes, absolutely awesome shows. so glad they made it big
Something To Remind Youis my all time fav by Aaron Lewis. I love the version from Live from Mohegan Sun. Truly has an outstanding and one a kind voice.
Great summary of Aaron Lewis’ career and evolution. I was a big Staind fan but am a bigger Aaron Lewis solo fan. “Tangled Up In You” was my first dance with my wife at our wedding. “Am I The Only One” literally brought me to tears about what’s happening to my country and is a wake up call to America.
Thank you! 🙏
One of my favorite artists from day one.
