This song is about Ronnie Van Zant’s experience with the record industry. Back then, everything was about charts. If your song made it to the top 100 then it got played on the radio and you made more money because more people heard your music and in turn, they bought your albums. The bullets he is referring to is the mark ( or bullet) in front of your song on the chart. If you had a “bullet” by your song it meant it was expected to move quickly up the charts . Ronnie felt he was being robbed of his bullets by the industry, hence the name, Gimmee back my bullets. Eventually this song had to be removed from their live playlist because people kept throwing bullets on the stage during their concerts. It’s a great song and they have so so many more!
Cool. Thanks for the info.
I thought I'd heard all the Skynyrd stories. Thanks for the info!
@@ronaldgines171 no prob… I’m old lol. Seen many Skynyrd concerts in my time😊
Thanks. Cool info. I never knew that. Makes total sense now. They seemed to have a lot of beefs with record companies. "Working for the MCA" is another one as well, I believe.
@@Boatzilla2 yep you are right!
When he said you ain't going to hear me crying he's simply stating "I'm not a whiner." It doesn't get any better than Lynyrd Skynyrd you could play every song from their catalog and you would love every one.
yeah he's saying 'bad crap happened but I'm not gonna cry about it"
@@Hobodeluxe960 exactly.
Yaaaassss! What you said. Right there.
Yep, from '74 to 77 was pure genius.
@@ole9421 that band was absolutely magical. My first concert ever was was Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1976 about a year before the plane crash
The Bullets Ronnie is referring to are the Bullets on the Billboard top 100 charts. Lynyrd Skynyrd was going through a rough patch as a band at this time and the song is directed at the music industry.
Great Scoop
Yeah, I never knew it was about music. Bullets were lyrics or some musical notes. Awesome
Yeah like cry for the bad man I know what you mean but Ronnie didn't need any bullets he could have beat the s*** out of all of them yeah they were trying to screw him over screw the whole goddamn band over in my opinion one of the best bands ever
When he says "I do not sing the blues", he means he does not let himself get down or depressed. He does not wallow in self pity.
RVZ not singing the blues in this instance is a metaphor for not whining like a victim but opting to be triumphant over the aggressor that stands in his way
Brad, I think when RVZ says he doesn't "sing the blues" it means that he's not feeling sorry for himself. That's how I interpret it. LS LOVED the blues, no way he's taking a shot at it.
exactly.
Southern rock is a dirivitive of blues, gospel, country, rock. I was born and raised here in Mobile, Alabama. The South has it's own feel and sound. And contrary to the lieing lefts views, we love everyone. Blues is obviously a great and well respected part of Southern rock that came from black culture. If we didn't love and respect it, Southern rock wouldn't sound the way it does.
I believe that. Many hung out with no name black musicians. Hence the confederate flag not racism to some.
@@jackiegoodspeed1849 facts
🥁🎸💣🔥The songs “Needle and the spoon” and “On the hunt”are musts by Lynyrd Skynyrd!🥁🎸💣🔥
I really dig it when young people like and appreciate great classic rock bands. Go, Brad and Lex, Go!
This was a message to their record label. The last verse is no dig at the Blues. It's a warning to record execs. Saying I'm wise and educated and I'm taking control of my business 💯%
I saw Lynyrd Skynyrd the first time my senior year high school 74 at Tampa Stadium. They were the opening act for Chicago. What a difference in music style. They blew the crowd away. Saw them again with Tampa’s own Outlaws and Molly Hatchet at a country rock festival. Those were the days…
oh gawd dude 'hurry sundown' outlaws fer ever
When he said “I do not sing the blues”, what he meant was he wasn’t going to cry about what he thought was taken from him. That’s what this song was all about. Lynyrd Skynyrd has always loved the blues. Listen to their song Curtis Low. They even played Robert Johnson’s Crossroads, on their first live album.
Bullets are songs that shoot up to the top , this song is about getting back up the charts .
Yes ma'am that is Gary Rossington playing the lead guitar parts on this song. Gary just passed away a couple of weeks ago at the age of 71. He was the last of the original members. Thank you so much for keeping their music alive. 🎸🎸🎸
The "Ride" cymbal in this song (especially from the guitar solo on) is nothing short of spectacular!!!
This was a time when southern rock was huge everywhere in the US and even dudes here in NY had confederate flags hanging because they liked the music. Not some dumb-ass political crap. Rock, in all its forms, united our generation. I miss those days
The confederate flag has always been political
@@Peopleofthesun386 well it wasn’t to a bunch of teenagers who didn’t know the history behind it and just thought it was cool because we liked the music. Different times
@@Peopleofthesun386 It originally had nothing to do with slavery.
@@neilny7797 Ignorance is not an excuse
@@jeffbenjamin6480 And the swastika was not about fascism either at first. But here we are
They are from north Florida, the panhandle, which is country, southern lol. Borders Alabama and Georgia. This is blues rock, southern rock. Not taking a shot a blues. Blues isn't always sad BTW. This was a great band. Many great songs from them. Southern rock was huge during the '70s and '80s.
They are from Jacksonville, not in the panhandle.
Jacksonville
He's singing about the music company taking their songs/ bullets. This album like all of them is great.
I love Lynyrd Skynyrd. Rock on Brad & Lex
I'm sure Gary Rossington (guitar) has his licks contributing to this track., The bass really stands out for me on this song too.
That was Leon on base right I'm not sure though
@@clodge5196 Thats definitely Leon . Leon played bass on Second Helping though Street Survivors.
To me, Leon is what made Skynyrd. That “lead bass” style of his
Leon’s bass line on this sounds like Entwistle rubbed off on him while Skynyrd was touring with The Who
Those are all Allen collins, his Squanky firebird tone is all over this one
From the opening note, the guitar work is so wicked on this song! The guitarists in Skynyrd had a way of each jamming on their own while blending perfectly with the others, each style complimenting the others, creating a sound that no other band got.
I love how Lex has listened to enough Lynyrd Skynryd to recognize Gary Rossington and his unique style of guitar playing!😍🎸
American by birth, SOUTHERN BY THE GRACE OF GOD!
Lynyrd Skynyrd banger
He did sing the blues in several songs. He meant it figuratively. The band is from Jacksonville and in Florida, the farther north you go the more southern it is with a few exceptions.
Taking his power back... love it.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is an American rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida. The group originally formed as My Backyard in 1964 and comprised Ronnie Van Zant, Gary Rossington, Allen Collins, Larry Junstrom and Bob Burns. The band spent five years touring small venues under various names and with several lineup changes before deciding on "Lynyrd Skynyrd" in 1969.
We all sing the blues 💙 at one time or another...
Keep it up y'all...
My best budy; his dad had a quote from this song under his senior picture. He(the dad) was a Marine scout sniper who took his own life.
What he meant when he said I don't sing the blues was those people weren't gonna make him sad and they had no more power over him. They weren't gonna make him sing the blues, he's done
I drank enough whiskey to float a battleship around! Ronnie Van Zant the Goat!!!!!
Lynyrd Skynyrd is from Florida
When I was introduced to Skynyrd I didn't realize I was going to be musically affected by every song this band made. Every one is Gold in this man's book!
No such thing as a bad tune by these guys. My favorite is Railroad Song.
One of the best. Gone too soon.
Story goes that when they sang this song live in the early days, when the sang Give Me Back My Bullets.....the fans threw bullets on to the stage😄
Also, ironically, Ronnie Van Zant was very anti-gun, and said so himself in an interview before his death. He said Saturday Night Special represented how he felt about guns. He only kept an antique musket, I believe it was, hanging up that came down through his family.
Except for the photo of him holding a gun to someone’s head at a party.
@@waynethera2712
And that photo is where?
Jackie Goodspeed, it was on the Lynyrd Skynyrd documentary on Netflix. Don’t get me wrong I love Ronnie and the boys.
@@waynethera2712 in that photo someone is holding the gun to Ronnie's head. Ronnie was the "Simple Man" but there was nothing simple about him. His take on guns was broader than Saturday Night Special or the interview Tanya is referencing, as were a lot of his views. As Ed King said, Ronnie was a raw genius with a photographic memory. He will always be my favorite.
James MONTGOMERY, you may be right. Sorry to ya all.
I don't think they would take a shot at the blues, I think he was saying he won't feel sorry for himself.
Shot at the record industry. That industry would steal from the artists. Ronnie would tellem like it is.
Live recording from the Album One More from the Road is probably my favorite version of this song.
I saw them not long before the crash. They were in Germany, drinking German beer on stage in between songs. Called them back twice on stage. Queen came on after, and we booed them off with one set. They should never have been put together in same concert. Plaid shirts everywhere in the audience.
Lex, you are correct, Gary Rossington is the only original member of Lynyrd Skynyrd the only one left. Ironically, the lead singer who died in the plane crash Ronnie Van Zant has two brothers Ronnie was the oldest , next is Donnie who plays in a band, called, 38 Special , and the youngest brother Johnny is Lynyrd Skynyrd’s current lead singer. This particular recording, Alan Collins is also playing guitar. they always had a good size band singer, they had one to two drummers before, they’ve had up to three guitarists, one bass player, and and they had background singers at one time, and piano player
Comin’Home is another great song to check out from Skynyrd
In Florida, the further north you go the more southern you get.
Yes you are correct sir, my sister lives in North Florida..
Good call, Lex....that IS Gary playing that distinctive guitar throughout the intro and verses.
Yep, that's Gary Rossington on lead guitar, this a classic example of his guitar tone, playing his Gibson Les Paul "Bernice"
Had the chance to catch the new Skynyrd about 20 years ago. Not the classic lineup, but still a great show.
Literally listen to this song once a day. skynyrd are the peoples champs!
Another one of my top five Lynyrd Skynyrd songs I love the song
These are my roots~ as a child my father used to listen to this, and I still jam to it...
Keep digging much more to explore with Skynyrd,
Gary Rossinton is the guitarist with the heavy more bassy sound. He also plays slide on free bird. Damn Lex, you should be playing guitar. You sure have a feel for it. Skynyrd is from Jacksonville Fla.
Lately you have been reacting to many of my favorite songs from great artists. This is one of Skynard's very best!
Billy Powell - it's hard to describe how much he adds. Subtle texturing, like the 'church organ' sound during specific sections. Other times peckin' the piano keys to drive the beat.....
Yall are cool!
Been lovin skynyrd since a kid
Glad yall feelin it
Yep pretty sure that's Gary doing those guitar lead fills. He was great at getting those squeal sounding false harmonics. There are only two guitarists on this album. Allen Collins and Gary Rossington. Ed King had left the band before they recorded it. Although I love all of Skynyrd's music, this album is probably my favorite. It has a rawer simpler sound. The tune Cry for the Bad Man is a goodie from it.
The first band I ever saw in concert. 1974. In New Orleans.
The truck rockin' on down road....there goes Brad
Wife here..Hey Brad..That's the feeling I've always gotten from this particular song..A "don't mess with me vibe"..!!
YES! Finally one of my favorite Skynrd songs. "I drank enough Whiskey to float a Battleship around" is such a great line.
"Gimme Back My Bullets", such a great album, but then you can't go wrong with Skynyrd!
Lex you're talking about a " call and return " method used in many songs, including blues. B.B. King mastered this
Yep. That's Gary ... Rossington playin the funky vibe
Lynyrd Skynyrd loves the blues. If you really want to hear them get down on some serious Mississippi Delta style blues? React to (Four Walls of Raiford) Raiford is a Florida State Prison. (Its an amazing song)
It is Gary adding those accents between lines in the verses , good call
Hey yall. Dude , FYI, Skynrd is from
Florida! Also,I I never saw THE BALLAD OF CURTIS LOWE as a true
blues cut because there was a fine line
between all genres and the Southern Rock genre they were striving to put on the map at this particular time and juncture.
“ Florida” the only state where the farther north you drive, the more southern you get! If y’all ever want to come to Jax I could arrange a Skynyrd tour with Gene Odom ( Band manager and Ronnie’s best friend ! )
I think he's sayin', "i'm a badass, i won't let you hurt me." kinda thing. You two RULE!!!
It's so refreshing to see young people who enjoy LS as much as I do! I saw them live 6 times in the 70's in Denver. You two are too cute. Glad I found you.
Yes Lex that is Gary Rossington playing that guitar solo. I can usually tell which guitarist is playing what. Easy on this album cause they were down to 2 lead guitarists for this one album only but thats another story.
The best thing about the old rock music as far as groups go. Nothing ever sounded or vibes the same way on any given album. The albums were like roller coasters.
I don’t think he’s taking a shot at the Blues genre. He means, he’s not going to whine or complain, “sing the blues.” Yes, that is primarily Gary on this one. Lex, you’re right. His guitar, named Bernice, after his mother, has a very distinct sound to me.
As others have said not a reference to ammunition, however on this tour people were actually throwing bullets onstage.
Have y'all checked out Lynyrd Skynyrd That Smell?
This album, Street Survivors, is a CLASSIC> I saw them in Greenville SC October 20, 1977, the night that they were in the plane crash that killed lead singer, Ronnie Van Zandt, lead guitarist, Steve Gaines, and his sister Cassie Gaines, backup singer. Such a loss..I look forward to you doing more reactions by Lynyrd Skynyrd,,,
The screech Rex is referring to is called a pinch. Actually it's a bend with a pinch included. Gotta get the string between the pick and your thumb.
Classic Skynyrd
Call and response is the term for an instrument echoing a voice or other instrument.
Coming Home, Tuesday's Gone, Working for MCA are some others to check out from Skynard. And from one of their newer albums, check out "Jake" and "Dead Man Walking" or for a softer song, "Lucky Man", which my husband and I actually used as our wedding song. Hope you enjoy them all!
A Bullet is given to songs that are showing upward momentum on an airplay chart. In Music Tracking, Bullets are denoted with a black circle next to the song's Rank on the Overview report. Songs that are debuting with a bullet are shown with a "D" inside a black circle.
Back in the day ( I'm 57 ) if you had someone complaining constantly, we would jokingly say "Cry me the Blues". Because most blues songs were about REAL hard times where as some people would complain that their coffee spilled and now they're in a bad mood, or something as mundane as that.
Never got to see the original lineup as my parents were well aware what went on at Rock concerts and I was 11 or 12 when they last came into Philadelphia.
I love this song.
Love you both. Thank You for this
When he's talking about, "will not sing the blues." means he will not complain. "sing the blues" is a metaphor crying, complaining, etc.
The lead guitar is amazing. I also think the organ makes this song.
Bullets, in the day mint a song going straight up the Billboard charts. As in who are you with a bullet. Put them back where they belong, and the top 25 on the Billboard Chart
My favorite band!!!
Yes Lex. You are right. That is Gary that your hearing on guitar there. (Gary Rossington)
Hey what's up guys! Greetings from South Florida! Skynyrd rocks! You guys rock! God bless you! Peace!
Yeah it's Gary Rossington on this lead riff,he was a fantastic guitarist,and don't get enough credit
Another one that speaks to this topic is called, working for MCA. It's all about the contracts and how they treat you and everything
They had gone from 3 guitar players down to 2 and and didn't do as well on that album. They blamed it on not having the 3rd guitar player. So they went back to having 3 when they added Steve Gaines, who was the background singer Cassie Gaines Brother. A bullet straight up the record charts is his reference. Gimme back my bullets.
You nailed it Lex! That's what he meant about the blues comment. He's feeling better everyday and he's loaded for bear.
Great reaction!
As usual Lex is on point. Bravo.
The best southern rock band ever 🤟✌️😎
Having the blues means being depressed. That's the emotion originally behind blues music. No rocker would insult the blues.
Cranberries - Promises. Banging
Just Allen and Gary playing guitar on this album. And that’s Gary playing lead on this track.
Can't beat "Aint No Good Life"!
Regarding Blues. In the song "need all my friends "
He sang "my throat is raw from singing the blues"
That's an amazing song BTW.
