So many aspects of this song are so sad, but the main point that gets me every single time is the "two days past eighteen" part. This kid didn't sign up to go fight, he was drafted and didn't even have anyone to send a letter to.
Political madness took too many lives of young ppl.. especially ww1 and ww2...
See you over talking bout that but the thing is these men fought and died for us no matter if they were drafted or not
@@dakotalittle6760 of course, and I'm not saying anything to the contrary. It's just a shame to think of all those young, poor, drafted kids that didn't have anyone to mourn them
When she says "the letter said the soldiers coming home" she means in a casket with a flag. Super sad song.
James Chastain “Never more to be alone” no I don’t think that’s what it means but music means something different to everyone.
Listen again.
@@Lilak2002 Read the names of the Vietnam dead, crying under the stands one name read, yes he did come home In a casket
Steven Tunis I commented on the wrong comment. That’s why it didn’t make sense. I don’t even remember which one I meant to comment on.
"the letter" and "the soldiers" are the clue. You will not say "the letter" if the soldier himself send the letter, it will be "his letter". Base on movies (I'm not American, so I don't really know if it's the reality), when soldier is coming home alive, there's no letter sent to love ones unless written by the soldier itself. But if a soldier is dead, a formal letter is given to the love ones.
Her soldier is coming home in a casket, this song is a true tear jerker ☹️🥺😢😓
"Never gonna hold the hand of another guy." He came home draped in the flag.
that yodel sound is a traditional country sound. a giant pet peeve when people decide to react to country is when they don't pay attention to the story/lyrics, that's the point of a traditional country song 98% of the time.
I often wish for these reaction video folks to have a copy of the lyrics to read as they listen. There's only one take, so while most of us will go back and figure out what they were singing, the reaction doesn't take that into account. I've seen SO many get the words and meaning wrong, and miss the whole message. It doesn't peeve me--heaven knows I've messed up song lyrics many times. But it could turn like into love.
I love the Dixie Chicks. One of the best acts of the early 2000's and those vocal harmonies are beyond incredible. It's too bad they were blackballed by the Country music industry. It was not deserved.
All because Natalie said that she was ashamed that the President (Bush at the time) was from Texas. People lost their damn minds over it and it was sad that they were black listed, because they were so talented
Agreed 💯
And to think, this beautiful song was the song the Chicks were promoting when the cancel effort began. How many good patriotic military supporting people never heard this song because of their animosity toward the Chicks.
Honey, as a Veteran and my late husband a Vietnam Veteran and he spent 20 years in the Air Force, can tell our military family means a lot to you. I am sorry if others have taken offenses. If you haven't heard it before you can't tell until the last verse that he was on the list of Vietnam dead read at the football game and she is crying undear the bleachers. It's OK hun.
You need to go back and listen to it again, look up the lyrics and read through them
john Owen ok let me do that
Definitely read the lyrics. It's actually a very sad song. She is basically singing about the guy who she met before he left for Vietnam. The ending when she was under the bleachers she was crying because the one name that no one seemed to care about was the guy who she met before the war died in Vietnam.
@@TOOSUSHI I just feel like you missed some very important stuff and missed the message in the song, I could be wrong but normally I feel it would have had a different impact on you. It seems like king sushi distracts you from the music way more than is right.
I think she missed out that he was just looking for someone to send a letter to... and that he was killed and wasn't coming back...
Dont reply often but most definately have no idea what you listened to.. A young man with nobody goin off to war finds a waitress before he leaves and tells her he has no one.. they write and shes falling in love with this traveling soldier.. He dies and she seems to be the only one who loved /remembered him.. to give your life and no one remembers you. Truly brakes my heart as a veteran.. you give all and not to be remembered is tear jerking. She loves a memory and will continue to..
Undortunately she missed the whole story line of this song.
Indeed
the first time I heard this song and heard the part about the list of local Vietnam dead, I wept like a girl.
Yeah I was gonna say she must’ve missed the fact the dude dies
@@johnokamoto6762 Me too.. I cannot up to this day listen to this song without getting so emotional and cry.
Wait a minute. Someone listening to a song for the first time got something wrong about the message behind the song? No flipping way. That’s never happened with anyone ever. This is the first time in history someone has needed more then one listen to get all the lyrics to a song. Unrelated, things like this is exactly why no woman has ever, or will ever, touch your little special place.
😭😭😭 this song is about a girl meeting a soilder and waiting for him to come home and then he was named as a Vietnam dead so it's not a happy song!!!
That's the reality of war unfortunately. and its not even close to what it does to the actual soldiers.
The two ladies either side of the lead singer are sisters, love this group xxx
This song gets me every time. Tears and chills every time
The announcer at the football game says "bow your head for a list of local Vietnam dead.."
Then:
One name rang and nobody cared
Except a pretty little girl,
With a bow in her hair..
this about a high school girl who met a soldier who was deployed to Vietnam a real heartbreaking song
I think you missed the meaning of the song. It's the Vietnam era. The young soldier dies, he's coming home, in a casket.
My favorite part is how emotional you get and how you are touched by the lyrics. You are ABSOLUTELY my favorite RUclips personality!!! 💯💯💯
This is actually my mom and dads song. Dad was in the Army when they got together. He did a month shy of 22 years and I spent my first 15 years in the military. I wouldn't change it for the world. He's retired now, and there's nothing like six years before he got out when we got the news that he was never going to deploy again. It was the best feeling in the world. I bawled.
You got emotional girl... Same... 😭😭😭😭 Yeah, I am not a country fan but I am a fan of this band now. Their harmonies and the fact that all girls can play an instruments and not just standing on the center just to look pretty makes me appreciate them even more. The song is so beautiful and their voices are like the icing on the cake. These girls have mad talent. Consider me a fan now. 💕💕💕😍😍
If you don't know much about them try " sin wagon" most women seem to like that. It's very upbeat and fun.
I cry every time I hear this song. Every. Time.
Me too. Every. Damn. Time.
Dixie Chicks are the Bomb! Loved your reaction!!
Im sure someone has already said it but this song is quite sad...the traveling soldier died.
As a veteran myself that served with a lot of Vietnam veterans, it's really hard for me to get through this song. I could tell that some of them I served with had some underlying issues and it breaks my heart knowing how they were treated when they came back.
"One named read and no one really cared" he died in Vietnam but he "had no one to send a letter too"
The Chicks are incredible!
This song has ALOT of meaning for me. love love love this song!
45 years ago I was that lonely 18 year old kid sitting at a bus stop fixin to be joinin the Army
I love the dixe chicks they have alot of awesome music that just listening have helped me through some hard times
The song is about a young guy going off to war that doesn't have anybody to write to. He asked her if he could write her letters while hes gone. They were strangers in the beginning.
This song makes me cry every time
Travelin’ Soldier
Two days past eighteen
He was waitin' for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth, in a cafe there
He gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she give him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talkin' to me, I'm feelin' a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go
So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one, to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin' home
So the letters came from an army camp
From California then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart, it might be love
And all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's gettin' kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin' home
One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
A man said "Folks, would you bow your heads
For a list of local Vietnam dead"
Cryin' all alone in under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marchin' band
And one name read, and nobody really cared
But the pretty little girl, with a bow in her hair
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin'...
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin' home
You should’ve watched the video. He comes home in a casket. He died over seas.
You missed so much in this song! You should either listen to it when your not distracted or look up the lyrics. It's an incredibly sad song.
Even though I’m a father of two young children who’s been married to their mother for 16 years and counting The Dixie Chicks’ song You Were Mine still brings me to tears. I’d love for you to react to that one Sushi. Thank you.
Well let me just say this, as someone that has witnessed what's it like to leave like this first hand it's not the same as the Vietnam era, my mom and my dad from the same town, dad was drafted as well as 2 uncles, and 5 cousins, mom said they thought of this song almost wrecked her, 87 people she grew up with that went to Vietnam, 39 did not make it home, we have the sketches still to this day from the Vietnam wall in DC of of those she grew up with, this song my mom can still not listen too, I myself served, I have 18 people I served with through Iraq and Afghanistan that did not make it as well as 3 family members, thank you for doing this review on this song it means the absolute most to me as it is one of my favorite songs
This is 1 of my favorite songs done by them
Great Song, very sad. I had a Brother in Vietnam in the 101st Airborne, He went through Boot Camp, advanced Training and eventually to the Same Battalion with a Soldier with the Same Last Name, but my Brother was Robert J and he was Ronald J.
My Brother was a top Graduate in one of the schools he went to with him and they actually Put the Other Guys name on the Plaque and certificate ( but with my brothers Service Number) ,
A few months Later in Vietnam their Battalion took heavy Casualties, My brother and Ronald were both wounded and evacuated. Ronald died on the Medivac.
They mixed the names up AGAIN and started to send notification to my mom that my brother was Killed. Luckily they caught it, but they had my brother call home from the Hospital ( think it was something called MARS that allowed them to get calls through) so my mom would know he was OK.
My Brother got back from overseas safe but died in a Motorcycle Crash in 1977. My family still has the award and Plaque with the wrong name on it of the Soldier who died over there.
I think you need to listen to this song again. The soldier was just being deployed and asked the waitress if he could send her letters. They fell in love that day. But he came back in a coffin. Thats why she is crying under the bleachers.
I think you missed the first verse where it says how the travelin' soldier met the piccolo player with a bow in her hair.. It's a great song and tells a great story.
I teach in an urban school district in New Jersey. Let’s just say that my students are not big country music fans. I used this song as part of my sixth grade language arts class, and when it started playing, their first reaction was “what the hell is this”, but by the time it ended all the girls were crying and begging me to play it again.
The drum is used to call "cadence" it sets the rhythm of the march.
You missed it. I really wish you would have listened to the lyrics in the beginning. Then you missed the local declared deal. And the letter saying the he’s coming home wasn’t from him.
I mean, why can't she react the way you want her to, amirite? Are you under the impression that she owes you anything?
Song is meaning by the soldier died in Vietnam, “he’s coming home” as in a casket. If u listen to the lyrics it basically says went to the football game, had moment of silence for the fallen soldiers and the goes on to say a name and no one reacted except for a girl wearing a bow tie in her hair
You should do "Goodbye Earl" by the Dixie Chicks.
Wish I could like this 100 times
About 8 reactions in I thought this song would be perfect, since I cry every time I listen to it. I was super excited when I saw this in the suggestions after Remember When ❤
Funny fact: Emily is 8th month pregnant in this and playing dobro... amazing! Also... Dixie Chicks are the most succesful female groups in music, 14 Grammy awards winners (+ huge group of country music awards), producers, songwriters, fighters for free speach and they have just 4 studio and 2 live albums. New album is coming in 2020 after 14 years... Please reac to their song Top Of The World with wonderful video :)
I am a new subscriber and we really do appreciate the reaction of you have for country music Keep up the good work you make me cry
More of The Chicks(formally The Dixie Chicks). All of there music is amazing
From a Afghanistan vet please react to trace adkins till the last shots fired
I second that, please listen to that song. I am also a vet and would enjoy you reacting to an artist that actually supports our troops.
Nicole Jessica thank you
Nicole Jessica thank him for his service for me and I always describe to ppl as the best worst time of my life. Yeah there was horrible things happening but that bond you create with your brothers is unlike anything anywhere. I had only knew the guys in my unit about 3 months when we got boots on ground in country and the fact that I was willing to risk my life for theirs and they were willing to do the same for me it’s incredible those guys are closer to me than some family
Another of my favorite Dixie Chicks is Long Time Gone
I seriously love this woman
You REALLY listen. That’s why i subscribed ❤️
I think you missed the part where the soldier died. It was a story about a kid going off to war and met this girl and fell in love with her and wrote to her. He was killed in the war and the line "when the letter said a soldier coming home" it was a condolence letter sent to her because she was his only point of contact and thus his next of kin. Beautiful but a painful song about loss.
I have never been able to listen to this song without crying my eyes out.
Dixie Chicks are amazing. Actually live is better than the record. They have so many great songs to check out.
He"s coming home in a casket he was killed in action
You said "sure" like a Canadian! I love you Sushi
Sushi , no one do reaction video as good as you are. Please dont ever stop doing this. Ur honest reaction are priceless, God bless u miss
Their version of 'Landslide' was awesome.
That drum sound is the cadence.
Here’s a religious tear jerker. John Michael Montgomery “The Little Girl”.
Don Martin. That people still believe in children’s stories, and live their lives based on the morals of a 3,500 yr old book, make me want to cry....do we consider that a religious tear jerker? 😂😂🤣. ATHEIST EXPERIENCE!!
Think Freely being snarky here but: yes because woke religion and Scientology has worked out so well. Yep so much better than collected wisdom and knowledge of millennia, that sums up to be be kind, and leave each other alone.
The ceremony is called a Change of Command and the part you referred to was or is called Pass and Review. This is done for the incoming Commander can review His or Her Soldiers.
You should react to Not Ready To Make Nice which was their response to people who wanted them to just apologize for what they said and make nice. I loved the Dixie Chicks and I still do and I really wonder how many hits we didn't get because they were blackballed from country radio in 2003 because the lead singer said "We don't want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States (George W. Bush) is from Texas." It was ridiculous.
I think the song came out in the early days of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. It really tugs at your heart strings about the plight of the average soldier. Dixie had gigantic talent on instrumentals. The lead singer with her anti Iraq war comments in 2003 took the group out of favor in country. They were chart toppers before that. ps After this comment I looked up the lyrics and they broke me up.
I would love to see your reaction to Jolene, by Dolly Parton.
Sin Wagon, by Dixie Chick's, too!
From the Petersens
I'm a 21 year service member and this song never gets old
I love this song 💕💕
They were amazing in concert
my dad was in the army for over 40 years and he recently retired but i remember when i was younger i would always wait at the door for him to come home and it would be months and sometimes a year until the door opened
I love the Dixie Chicks and have seen them live a few times, they are incredibly talented! It would be interesting to see your reaction to their song "Not ready to make nice". They wrote it after the incident that happened in (I think?) 2004 when they made an off-handed comment in a concert in the UK that they were embarrassed to be from Texas where George W Bush was from- the comment made it back to the states and created a blow up where they were being boycotted by fans and radio stations, and even receiving death threats. I personally love the song and think it is the perfect reaction to it all- to not be able to make one comment and have your whole career ruined, is insane. Most people think they did it to themselves but I think it was really one incident that sparked this outrage culture we live in today where things get blown completely out of proportion. Anyway, great reaction and hope you check that song out, reaction or not!
Awesome reaction, thanks!
The girl in the song is crying over her dead soldier then this girl goes "Awww :)" lol
oohhh you gonna love this
Next you should listen and react to Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss
I love that song.
you want her to cry? well..songs worth it, I ship that
She's already done a video on this song
Dixie Chicks... Good Bye Earl
They sing what I have heard it called country Ballads. You missed the fact that this is the girl and soldier's first and only meeting
They have many AMAZING songs...please do more!!!
Been watching Sushi listen to songs I know and love.....her emotional reactions are becoming familiar and triggering the emotional response I first felt with each song. I'm loving watching her hear Chris Cornell and the Chicks for the first time. Shedding tears.
Dance with the devil-immortal technique. You'll be mind blown fr
Oml we had some local pro forms from my town do this song and it fr almost made me cry😂
I can't wait until I listen Dixie and I am loving the content very much because you worked extremely well and you are 100% amazing and you are sweet person with your good Heart God Bless you and God bless your family as well and jesus loves all of you and you guys are amazing 💖💖💖💖💖💖❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🤩🤩🤩🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🖐👍🏼
I love the way you react.
The lead singer is Natalie Maines. She voiced her opinion on President Bush & just about ended their careers. Radio wouldn't play their songs. I wonder what happened to free speech.
Free speech doesn't mean there would be no consequences to what you say. You can say whatever you want but don't think it may not come at a price. I always try to go by the saying "Think before you speak".
I highly recommend ABBA who are one of my favorite bands our late father got us hooked on them when we were kids my dad would play their vinyl records and I would sing and dance along in the living room I highly recommend Dancing Queen, Fernando, Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A Man after Midnight, The Winner Takes it All, Voulez Vous, and I’ll Be Waiting for You to name a few of my faves!! God Bless!!!
You should check out "The Chain of Love" by Clay Walker
Their musical style is called Blue Grass which originates from the Appalachians and was created by Irish and Scottish settlers
This was the first song that i ever heard my daughter sing
Seriously, stop stopping this beautiful song
A good friend of my wife's detail, her job, in the Army was making sure all pertinent paperwork and effects that were sent to her matched with the toe tag on the bodies of my fallen brothers in uniform when they were being offloaded in San Diego....I can't recall the specific MOS, but in the almost two years she worked that detail, she lost over 40lbs, and she lost her marriage cuz her husband was a stateside Air Force reservist who was also an accomplished a*shole....in this song, they talk about the soldier comin home in a flag draped coffin, not a good thing....
here's a song by Clay Walker "Chain of Love"
The letter was to a soldier who was never coming home
They sing so well together and it was sad because they made a statement about President Bush and because they wouldn't apologize it destroyed them as a band for quite a while but it's good to see they're starting to come back now. They were done so wrong just because they had an opinion.
Only this girl with the bow in her hair knew the name of particular soldier. He might be coming home, but in a pine box.😢
Do more from the Dixie chicks!
Alot of country music tells stories and alot of those stories are real experiences. They got into some political trouble and broke up. They have come back as "The Chicks". Great voices!
We never broke up. Just raised 9 kids;)
The Dixie Chicks has many really good songs
Sushi this is a very sad song about a solder not making it home to his lover
I remember back when their lead singer had a pixie cut
Please listen to the person who actually wrote and sang it, Bruce Robison, his brother Charlie was/is married to one of them, hence why they covered it.
Question... did the 7 days of shady stop? Cuz I feel like we miss 3-4 days lol just asking... keep up the good work!
The end of the song. The lyrics talk about reading a list of local Vietnam dead at the foot ball game that the girl was at. The soldier she was writing to was in the list. Nobody really cared besides her. Sad song.
Written by the great Bruce Robison. His version is the best!
The letter is the one thats hand delivered when a soldier dies in combat.. Not a love letter.. The song at the end is "taps" played at funerals for our fallen soldiers its a final salute and farewell.
