im 11 and i wish i could got to these old times this song make me so emotiniol because it was my dads favroute song when he was little and its been my favroute song my whole life i sing this song in my bedroom and my dad stands outside my door and listens to me and its made him cry i love this song
Yes sir good music is great for the soul my friend, it's what ties us to the ppl we watched as we grew up, cherish every moment you can with your dad young man, one day all you will have is memories, the more you make now the more you will carry with you through the rest of your life
Even today this is one of the best songs to drink drunk with friends. I remember being at a big party in a barn and we had like 50 people just singing this song at the top of our lungs. It’s literally a moment I will never forget. We were all having a blast.
Went to John Prine at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in Hot Lanta February 25,Old Crow opened.I just wondered where the hell Ive been all my 53 years.Nobody I know has heard of John Prine and I felt fortunate to be turned on to him by a good friend 35 years ago.I have always loved blue grass.Just glad I know them now.These folks are phenominal !!!
This song puts me in the most awesome mood and I picked out the fiddle (violin) parts for it great song thank GOD for music it bridges the gap of races for me 6'4" blk bodyguard I love bluegrass and classical violin /fiddle keep the sound alive guys God bless you all
I love this song with a passion. It also doesn't help that I lived in Johnson City, Tn. and various parts of the Cumberland Gap. Brings me right back to the hills when I hear this song.
Occasionally a song comes along that has so much more than just a "good hook". This song just makes you FEEL good. Nice groove, KILLER harmonies and a story about leaving behind the bad and going to find that true love. What's not to like? I'll likely be singing this song for at least the next week.
The people that gave this a thumbs down should really be ashamed of themselves. This version is AMAZING! The harmonies are just perfect. This song has a lot of meaning to me. Lost the love of my life and this was her song. Wagon Wheel just reminds me of so many good memories and I know she is in a better place now. And being from Philly always makes me smile when they mention my city :)
I was at the bar the other night, it was one of the special nights, and it was packed, couldnt move, and I was very upset, than wagon wheel came on the jukebox, and everyone in the bar sang together, it was the most beautiful thing ever and it brought a tear to my eye
There are literally hundreds of all kinds of songs that I love for all kinds of different reasons. It is impossible to listen to Wagon Wheel and not have it put a big ol' smile on your face, stomp your foot and sing along every time I hear it. OCMS performing this song is the personification of the joy of music. Love it!
people bitching about covers always makes me smile, cause what it comes down to, as a musician starting out, you got to play covers in a bar band to get the gig, getting people there so you can slip 1 or 2 of your own originals in a night, till you make a name for yourself and get signed...and covering an old song keeps it alive
They didn’t transcend their genre. This song was co-written by the lead of this band and bob dylan and then later covered by Darius Rucker. It’s a bluegrass song first and foremost.
Helps you forget your pain for just a little while. People will be singing this a hundred years from now. Don't care what it is--country, rock, folk--doesn't make any difference. Great music.
I'm french, I've spend a semester in Boston where I heard this song for the first time, that my roomate was playing all the time. I now think there is no better song than this one, it makes me glad and depressed each time I listen to it.
First heard this on radio 4 years ago. I don't count the times i've listened to it. I am a huge Beatles fan, but this is hands down the most i have ever played one song.
Seems like every time OCMS performs "Wagon Wheel" live, their performance gets closer to perfection. Fantastic homage to and extension of Bob Dylan's original lyrics. Good God Almighty, these guys are talented.
I've sang this song to my daughter since she was five days old. She's ten months old now and this song has become her lullaby. No matter what she is doing, whenever this song come on, she starts smiling, squealing, and clapping her hands. Cool thing about this song is that I live 20 minutes from Johnson City, Tennessee. I also like the fact it is the brainchild of Dylan.
This is country. Real country, not pre-fabricated songs sung with cloned voices and produced way past its useful life like the crap they make today. Great song, great performance.
So true. There is a marvelous, underground bluegrass scene going on right now and you will never hear it on the 100s of "fake country music/pop music" stations across the country. A good example another group is Crooked Stills and their song "Half Of What We Know." Great music that sits on RUclips and has hardly any clicks. They deserve more attention.
Right now I am watching this video and the sunset is happening right now and Hearing this song right now thinking about my dad my best friend and my hero and I wish I could’ve said goodbye when we were both in the hospital at the same time he didn’t make it and I did and that’s something that I will always remember forever you saved my life🙏🏻 strength and honor Love you chief
I am so glad they made this live release. I miss this Old Crow, when Tennessee Pusher was new. Great times, great memories and the golden era for the band.
@@rodnrach They're still touring, but the lineup has changed a bunch of times. Ketch Secor is still vocals and fiddle, and Morgan Jahnig on stand-up bass. Gill Landry, tall dark fella playing banjo on this one, and dobro on many others, is touring solo, and so is Willie Watson (guitar here). I can't get a good look at the other banjo player, they all look so young here, might be a young Kevin Hayes, he recently quit touring with them. My favorite lineups have Landry and Watson, it's a more raw and personal sound than later stuff.
Interesting reading through these comments. Here is my view of it. I play music with clarinet, tin whistle, banjo, wife makes vocals, plays guitar, son plays fiddle. Good music created and played comes from the soul. Some music absolutely touches the soul, and makes you feel so good. This is one of those pieces of music. You do not have to be classically perfect to capture that moment. Just live and enjoy it, and make it part of you.
I cant get enough of this. I've yet to see a fiddle player beside Ketch who can play the fiddle and sing at the same time. Even the best female fiddle player I've seen, Alison Krauss, stops playing fiddle when she sings. This is talent and has a great future ahead of him.
The song, live, gets better each time I hear it. Time to head home to North Caroline...leaving the land of the crimson tide. Hark the Sound of Tar Heel voices... Home to the land of long leaf pine.
I am a Dj on our local community radio station here in Virginia. I am the in house loud screaming guitar guy on a station that plays mostly country and bluegrass. A few weeks ago we were having our fundraiser week with live music and this local band came in one night that played a bunch of Old Crow Medicine Show music which I had never heard before. This song was one of them. I love the harmonies and will be seeking out more Old Crow Medicine Show music. I guess an old dog can learn new things.
Ketch can sure vamp on his fiddle! I love these guys! Anyone that can cover a Dylan tune like this is FAB in my book! You can feel the LOVE with this one!
Saws these guys live in Macon GA earlier this year. Been to MANY concerts, these guys put on one of the best I have ever seen. Even did a three song encore! This video does no justice to seeing them live.
Saw them for first time Saturday night at the Ryman Auditorium. My first trip to the Grand Ole Opry and I am exposed for the first time to these guys. They blew me away. Their energy was amazing. Unless I am mistaken they love the old music. Wagon wheel belongs in the same conversation with "Rose colored glasses" and "Smells like teen spirit". Simply amazing artists. God bless my Irish and Scottish ancestors for this music.
The 1st I heard this song was Darius Rucker's version, which I really liked the 1st time I heard it. A few weeks later I saw Old Crow when I was on vacation in Myrtle Beach. Their version is WAY better. If you ever get to see them live, do it. Great show. I'm gonna see them again next month in Cooperstown, NY
It should be a crime to hate this song... I can't stop listening. Replay. Replay. Replay, replay, replay! Replay again, and another replay, and another! I can't stop :D I love ittttttttt
same! I can listen to this song 100 times in a row because I just love it, but every time I hear that line I think how the geography is off... glad I'm not the only one!
Man... back in rural Maryland where I'm from, when it strikes midnight at a party, someone puts this on and we all sing along. if you turned it off, well it was your fault that you got your ass kicked. but up here in boston its all techno and dubstep and hardcore. i just want my good ol country bands back...
Man this is epic. First heard these guys a couple years ago while hiking on the Pacific Crest Trail near Echo Lake in Northern CA. It was Fall, it was cold and starting to rain, and I was by myself and had my little headphone radio tuned to Garrison Keillor. They and Garrison kept me happy for many miles. I've like them ever since.
Real authentic American culture such as this is hard to come by now its all just virtue signaling sjws destroying every vestige of the traditional Americana they can. They want a sterile barren world of conformity and to rewrite all history sorry *Herstory.
Seen these guys last night in Seattle....man they tore it up. so glad to see these young kids bringing music back to the raw talent it came from with out all the techno nonesense
Saw them in Nashville at Fontenot, an amphitheater just N of Nashville, was UnReal!! They are non-stop for 2 hrs. Playing is fantastic. Just amazing, really. By the end, 5,000 were singing this at the top. Was an epic moment. Great band.
The chords for guitar are G , D, Em, C, G, D, C. Each chord two counts and the last C four counts . Strum DD - ududu which makes it 1/8 time. Capo the second fret.
im 11 and i wish i could got to these old times this song make me so emotiniol because it was my dads favroute song when he was little and its been my favroute song my whole life i sing this song in my bedroom and my dad stands outside my door and listens to me and its made him cry i love this song
That’s pretty wonderful 🙂
Beautiful story
Awesome bro
That’s what GOOD music is suppose to do…
It’ll always be in your and your dads heart!
Yes sir good music is great for the soul my friend, it's what ties us to the ppl we watched as we grew up, cherish every moment you can with your dad young man, one day all you will have is memories, the more you make now the more you will carry with you through the rest of your life
Look at how much those people enjoy this...this is what music is all about

This song makes me smile, laugh and cry all at the same time. Just amazing.
I love this song with a passion. It also doesn't help that I lived in Johnson City, Tn. and various parts of the Cumberland Gap. Brings me right back to the hills when I hear this song.
All y'all can thank OCMS for the grass revival. When we play this it brings the house down. God Bless OCMS.
One of the few bands who sound better live than recorded. Rock on, OCMS. Rock on...
Rock on.
Occasionally a song comes along that has so much more than just a "good hook". This song just makes you FEEL good. Nice groove, KILLER harmonies and a story about leaving behind the bad and going to find that true love.

For me this will always be the definitive version of this song

They thought this was a Darius Rucker cover

This guy plays the violin like its the easiest thing in the world! Incredible
Nobody else needs to even try to play this song. Old Crow Medicine Show is perfect!
I grew up in a house where Bob Dylan was practically a deity.....and I think my old man would love this cover. God Bless ya guys, come to Texas.
They basically finished the song that Dylan started and kinda made a demo of
people bitching about covers always makes me smile, cause what it comes down to, as a musician starting out, you got to play covers in a bar band to get the gig, getting people there so you can slip 1 or 2 of your own originals in a night, till you make a name for yourself and get signed...and covering an old song keeps it alive
We're so lucky to have the legacy of this kind of music. Just pure joy.
pure joy, even I don't know Joy! Ha! Love this.
Love it when a band transcends their genre: this is great, even if you're not a country fan (like myself). Very talented group!!
This song is not considered country, its folk/bluegrass
Grand
@@ted.the.human1 yep, but so so good
Their cuteness doesn't hurt either!!!!
They didn’t transcend their genre. This song was co-written by the lead of this band and bob dylan and then later covered by Darius Rucker. It’s a bluegrass song first and foremost.
They make me proud to be American. And I'm Canadian
Canadians are American too.
Every time I've been north of the border I barely noticed a difference.
Hold tight 51😂
Saw them, maybe 10 years ago and they were awesome.
Helps you forget your pain for just a little while. People will be singing this a hundred years from now. Don't care what it is--country, rock, folk--doesn't make any difference. Great music.
I am grateful for cats like these....flat out spiritual listening to this! HEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY Momma Rock me....indeed.
This crowd is truly happy, faces of sheer joy. Love this band!
I'm french, I've spend a semester in Boston where I heard this song for the first time, that my roomate was playing all the time. I now think there is no better song than this one, it makes me glad and depressed each time I listen to it.

There are no words that could ever EVER in a million years speak what I am seeing and feeling here.

how’s your daughter bro, she should be about ten years old now
@@darealbigsmoke1730 She is ten! She is quite a remarkable young lady. Has the most genuine heart of anyone I've ever known. I am blessed.
This is country. Real country, not pre-fabricated songs sung with cloned voices and produced way past its useful life like the crap they make today. Great song, great performance.
this song is so big in Ireland at the minute!! fair play t yir man singin and playin fiddle not many can pull that off!!!
Fiddle, banjo, catchy tune = AWESOME!

this Song makes me cry a lot, and i m an italian boy, and i ve told everything
David, Kentuckey july 2008 first time i ever heard this song at their front porch picking show one of the best nights of my life
i catch a tear in my eye at "but i aint turnin back, to live that old life no more". been there, said that
it makes me cry to its the best song
Amazing! There Is Still Hope For Music In America!
I am so glad they made this live release. I miss this Old Crow, when Tennessee Pusher was new. Great times, great memories and the golden era for the band.
Are they no longer together?

Could listen to this song forever. Gets me in my soul.
Those who say we don't have any good music today haven't heard this one.
Any song that makes that many people that happy is quite alright in my book
Showed this to my long time girlfriend. Now it's being played at our wedding.
First heard this in an Irish pub. It was awesome, it seemed like everyone knew it and was singing along at the top of their lungs.
I cant get enough of this. I've yet to see a fiddle player beside Ketch who can play the fiddle and sing at the same time. Even the best female fiddle player I've seen, Alison Krauss, stops playing fiddle when she sings. This is talent and has a great future ahead of him.
hands down the best song ever made
here... can we the love this music recognise this is a great song..... big time!!
they got one hell of a second vocal.
The song, live, gets better each time I hear it. Time to head home to North Caroline...leaving the land of the crimson tide. Hark the Sound of Tar Heel voices... Home to the land of long leaf pine.
Way better than the studio version. This band sounds better live. So m much more real and heartfelt!!! YEA!!

Appalachian music is rooted from Ireland. See Sharyn Ward "all the lies you told me".

I just got back from seeing these guys live . Awesome show

Ketch can sure vamp on his fiddle! I love these guys! Anyone that can cover a Dylan tune like this is FAB in my book! You can feel the LOVE with this one!
wow. this song just makes me feel alive! I dearly hope that there is a folk revival in the united states that lasts. God bless OCMS!
They are amazing in concert. Saw these guys live along with Mumford and Sons on the 23rd. Such a wonderful experience.
I love this live version. Great band.
Saws these guys live in Macon GA earlier this year. Been to MANY concerts, these guys put on one of the best I have ever seen. Even did a three song encore! This video does no justice to seeing them live.
when it comes to harmony vocals this is about as good as it gets. These folks can sing!

I've never had the pleasure of seeing this band live , but I do love their music!
I was on my scrolling mode when I saw your comment and was moved to send a text, hope you are having a good day?
Why am I only discovering this great band now? Because commercial radio does not know what people really like.
It should be a crime to hate this song... I can't stop listening. Replay. Replay. Replay, replay, replay! Replay again, and another replay, and another! I can't stop :D I love ittttttttt
WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE SONG EVER
Mine to
Hi dear, I was on my scrolling mode when I saw your comment and was moved to send a text to you hope you don't find it pestering..?
It doesn't matter who does a cover this song--OCMS & Mr. Bob Dylan will smile all the way to the bank--Great song, great song-writer's and musician's
Love these guys! You can tell that they love to play. ❤️
Well said Jacqueline! Their shows are always incredible.
this song is what got me throgh the past year of college, hope it can get me through this last one...
That was the most epic "Tennessee!" Ever!
same! I can listen to this song 100 times in a row because I just love it, but every time I hear that line I think how the geography is off... glad I'm not the only one!
My home town is mentioned born and raised in Johnson City Tennessee we also invented Mountain Dew now I'm living in Pennsylvania
Mountain dew, the perfect mixer for moonshine
Man... back in rural Maryland where I'm from, when it strikes midnight at a party, someone puts this on and we all sing along. if you turned it off, well it was your fault that you got your ass kicked. but up here in boston its all techno and dubstep and hardcore. i just want my good ol country bands back...
When you grow up listening to a fiddle instead of some trunk rattling bass it makes me so glad i was born and raised in Tennessee
Comment of the year!! Congratulations!! 🎆🎁🎇🎀🎊🎈🎉
I am 73 and this is what I grew up on. Boy can he fiddle, can't get enough of this. Look at the age of people in the crowd, they sure know good music.
Lucky
My wife and I's first dance was to this song. I'll never get tired of hearing it.
America will always be better at some things. These boys are a true example of that
Yeah I think most countries are pretty good at their own music!
Idk but whenever I listen to this song, it makes me proud of the south!
This is the best band ever made don't you agree
they are a great band but avertt brothers are the best ever
+lewis adams
I saw the Avett Brothers in Kansas City, and OCMS opened for them. Best show ever.
*One* of the best!
The Dead South is one of the best too!
one of the best songs ever.
nuf said.
Looks like their shows are a hell of a lot of fun!
I want to see them live so bad!
Words cannot describe how much I love this fucking song!
Man this is epic. First heard these guys a couple years ago while hiking on the Pacific Crest Trail near Echo Lake in Northern CA. It was Fall, it was cold and starting to rain, and I was by myself and had my little headphone radio tuned to Garrison Keillor. They and Garrison kept me happy for many miles. I've like them ever since.
This is the most epic performance evurrrrrrr!
Blue grass rock and roll , ocms carved their own place in music
this song wants me like to live in the USA :)
Its been a while...still wanna live here?
Real authentic American culture such as this is hard to come by now its all just virtue signaling sjws destroying every vestige of the traditional Americana they can. They want a sterile barren world of conformity and to rewrite all history sorry *Herstory.
Seen these guys last night in Seattle....man they tore it up. so glad to see these young kids bringing music back to the raw talent it came from with out all the techno nonesense
Excelente agrupación, la canción es muy bonita....saludos desde Lima Perú...
Just can't stop listening to this.
Saw them in Nashville at Fontenot, an amphitheater just N of Nashville, was UnReal!! They are non-stop for 2 hrs. Playing is fantastic. Just amazing, really. By the end, 5,000 were singing this at the top. Was an epic moment. Great band.
No matter how far I am from home, this song always brings me back.
Hey girl at 3:16 singing Tennessee, your energy is intoxicating. Marry me.
+Quirk Essence ok, but i get her at 1.55.
Guarantee she banged at least one member of the band that night. At least once.
White boys......we can't jump, we can't dance, marginal in athletics, but we OWN it when it comes to good music!
The chords for guitar are G , D, Em, C, G, D, C. Each chord two counts and the last C four counts . Strum DD - ududu which makes it 1/8 time. Capo the second fret.
Fun song to play
Awesome Mr Strong. Thank you!!

This is the tune that sold me on OCMS!!
