Sturgill has said that “You can have the crown” is one of those songs that he almost wishes he’d never written. When he wrote it he was actually just trying to see how many cliches he could fit into one song and that it ended up being a last second addition to the record. Now it is one of his most requested songs and what was supposed to be this tongue-in-cheek song of cliches is one of his most popular tunes. He’s said he doesn’t even really like playing it anymore. Turns out he’s such a phenomenal writer that even when he’s facetiously writing, it’s still a fantastic song 😂 his wit and writing style just shine through so well it’s hard not to love this song though!
Take anything Sturgill says about his music with a grain of salt. He just released a bluegrass version of this song...rhyming Bronco with Mongo. Classic.
That guitar player is actually very good. Those fillings and licks are awesome, never overplays and plays only the essencial but in a really tasty way. Top notch guitar player
My favorite thing about You Can Have The Crown is how Sturgill keeps referring back to earlier lines in the song. Like the rob a bank bit and the whatever rhymes with Bronco. That just really pulls it back together as a song and commentary. I can think of a lot of worse ways to spend a day than sitting with Chuck Diesel, watching Andy Griffith and Dukes of Hazard, while trying to find the missing line for a song. To be honest though, I am at a loss for a good lyrical rhyme or match to use with Bronco. Lol.
You should react to the cover of this song that Post Malone did, backed by Dwight Yoakam’s band. That’s right, Posty. He recorded it for a benefit concert for Texas after the ice storms. It will give you a whole new respect for Post Malone and his talent. It’s on RUclips. Look it up!
“ I’ve been spending all my money on weed and pills, trying to write a song to pay the bills but it ain’t came yet, guess I’ll have to rob the bank..” best lyrics ever in a song It literally is a man who doesn’t give a shit about anyone else’s opinion but his own.
This was the best way to kick off the live stream. Sturg is the man! And Chuck D. I knew you were the kid sitting on the couch watching Boss Hog just like me!!! LOL my brother from another! Burt GREAT show as always my man, see you next Tuesday!!!!
God it's so much to say about Strurgill‼️ "Breakers roar" "It aint all flowers" "Welcome to earth" "Jesus boogie" "All around you" "Turtles all the way" And you can forget what got me hooked "I don't mind" his music speaks for itself and can't be duplicated, best country music artist of the fcking decade in my opinion
Sturgill also has one "The Dead Don't Die" & my favorite line is " WHEN THE AFTERLIFE IS OVER THE AFTERLIFE LIVES ON" Thanks Again for Honest Reactions
Sturgill Simpson Is 1 of the Nicest People you'll ever meet, met him at Pgh. Intl. Airport & my wifw Got her Pic with him & talked to him for about 1/2 hr , if you get a chance check out his CUTTING GRASS VOl. 2 REDID HIS SONGS BLUEGRASS & he did a show of all of them on youtube at the Grand Ole Opry. You won't be disappointed.
What happened with the recording of that song? Why is there so many different versions? It’s so confusing. And I swear the original version is unavailable at this time
Still loving the vibes of this channel every day! In addition to Derek Spencer, which I suggested a couple of days ago, you should check out Brent Cobb - Black Creek. Keep it up!!

But that’s exactly why I love it

It's mostly because he's still trying figure out what the fuck rhymes with "Bronco".
@@medinadg I didn’t know about this song.. what’s the name of it ?
@@medinadg he named his kid mongo so he had something to rhyme with bronco
“I’m so broke, I can’t pay attention.” LOL love Sturgill
"But Im still tryna figure out what the fuck rhymes with bronco"... 🤣 love that song
One of the best lyrics ever!
That guitar player is actually very good. Those fillings and licks are awesome, never overplays and plays only the essencial but in a really tasty way. Top notch guitar player
The train horn sound he replicates on the song that follows is phenomenal. I'd never seen that done before.

The whatever rhymes with Bronco is probably my favorite. And a Chuck diesel hang is the best of hangs for sure!

I found his cover not long ago and honestly was kind of indifferent to post prior.. but damn impressed by him after listening that cover..
I've watched this video so many times and never noticed the guitar players face! Thanks for pointing that out.

God it's so much to say about Strurgill‼️ "Breakers roar"
"It aint all flowers"
"Welcome to earth"
"Jesus boogie"
"All around you"
"Turtles all the way"
And you can forget what got me hooked "I don't mind" his music speaks for itself and can't be duplicated, best country music artist of the fcking decade in my opinion
I’ve shown a ton of people this video, and the entire time I was looking for the same response you guys did. This song has it all
This song has so much to talk about for sure!
Another king from my home Kentucky!!!
Y’all Kentucky folks ain’t playing no games with nobody!
Kentucky Proud TM
Has the best opening lyrics in a long time for country music
Thanks for sharing! I just can’t get this on the radio.
I saw Tyler open for Sturgill in Atlanta.
3rd time I d seen Sturgill!
Both rocked it. Some people didn’t get it but, that’s okay
Sturgill is a badass he didn't get a cma a year or 2 ago so he was busking outside the venue with his guitar
Wow, 1:20 am, couldn't sleep got up and landed here - lucky night. Great stuff
Thanks for watching Frank!
@@SongwriterReacts You should do an online open mic night.
Dude, you got scary red at 9:32 when you started laughing 😂
I edited the video poorly on this and we look really red. Coloring videos is a mystery to me ha!
Sturgill also has one "The Dead Don't Die" & my favorite line is " WHEN THE AFTERLIFE IS OVER THE AFTERLIFE LIVES ON" Thanks Again for Honest Reactions
Thank you for watching Rory!
Yes yes 🙌, it was worth the wait for a Sturgil video!
My man Bill!
I tear up when I listen when to Sturgill.

I've seen this video a gazillion times and never noticed the guitar player before
That Dewey decimal licks comment didn't get the respect it deserves = at least a "nice one Chucky d" followed by fist bump 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Haha you’re probably right!
THANK YOU, J Wallace (time to get some fracking respect around here for a change)
😄😄
Lord won’t throw a damn dog a bone cause if the devil shows up with a better deal this ‘ol souls going down.. my favorite lyric!
What a lyric!
What happened with the recording of that song? Why is there so many different versions? It’s so confusing. And I swear the original version is unavailable at this time
Can we get a Sturgill Simpson XM station? I stopped listening to radio when I finally bought a used Jeep with satellite radio!
Sturgill Simpson is an indescribable, Grammy winner, Nashville outlaw (King Turd of Shit Mountain) phenomenon.
Sturgill has never played around.
Some days you blast off and some days you just smoke. Is a DMT and Mary Jane reference! Lol!
Best line... Could be worse it aint that bad. least I sittin in ole Baghdad

Thanks Joel and I love me some Brent Cobb!
Awesome man! You ever heard Sierra Ferrell? Girl is crazy good. Check out Elk river blues if you can I think you’d be a fan!
Love Sierra Ferrell!
"Well, they call me King Turd up here on Sh1t Mountain"
u gotta check out "I don't mind" by sturgill
Will do Henry!
Also "Water in a Well" same brewery session 🤘
@@Chingas33 right on Tyler
This song reminds me that John prine took him under his wing for a while and it shows. Good stuff.
Voice is so reminiscent of the greatest,.. Waylon.
Wooooh!
Something Waylon Jennings would sing!😂😂🥰🥰
I really feel like you should react to Kolby Coopers 2 words
react to Jack Ingram "LOVE YOU" video The Catallac Three "THE SOUTH" video TY
Review Sturgill "Never Go to Town Again" Sunday Valley Live
please watch post malones cover of this song its amazing
hes in the hip hop/rap scene and my god he covered this song like ive never heard before
Please review his new disco song. Maybe you can explain to me what the Hells going on
I think it’s the opening line
he doesn't play the song anymore because it was just covering all the bases of the prototypical country music song
My guess is "What the $%&* rhymes with Bronco?!"
try and listen to so john Moreland
He’s in my top 5 favorites. I’m a massive fan!
Im so broke i cant pay attention, come oonnn🤘🤘
Love that!
What f'ing rhymes with Bronco.
