Now this is country music, what they play today make's no sense. i has no meaning, but this. This song reminds me of where i grew up in West Virginia. I might be young but i sure do know country music when i hear it. Good job John Anderson!
John Anderson is so often overlooked but as far is I'm concerned he's one of the artists that carried the 90's on his shoulders. Straight tequila night and Seminole wind are absolute classics and hold so much nostalgia with me for the way life used to be
This song has been stuck in my head for a week now. This truly makes me proud to be an American. Not our government but the simple and humble people who make this country. A small town is were I'll be found.God bless all. Sincerely drumwish2010
Grew up in this small town where video was made. My dad was in video. He has been dead for 15 years. I still love to watch video, it reminds me of my dad and growing up in Watertown tn
George Jones, Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, George Strait, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Alan Jackson, Waylon Jennings, and John Anderson all have that quintessential deep Country sound.
No ladies in your pure country sound list? Loretta Lynn? Patsy Cline? Dale Evans? June Carter? Dolly Parton? Skeeter Davis? Tanya Tucker? Emmylou Harris? Kitty Wells? Crystal Gayle? The Judds? Connie Smith? Dottie West? Barbara Mandrell? Linda Ronstadt? Juice Newton? Reba McEntire? Maybelle Carter? Donna Fargo? Connie Francis? Lacy J Dalton? Come on!!!
@Wade Hayes This is wade Hayes not John Anderson but in the beginning we thought it was John right. Well the artists uses there people for this and there people don't want they please as long ae you believe its John Anderson but its not. Man I can't believe this singers do this to there fans.
@Wade Hayes See its not John Anderson and at first it was John's picture beside the comments boy they are smart aren't they well ,I have caught on to it now. You all the artists doesn't comments to us they use there fans , I will never spend another penny on no artists again they use us . Hope you guys see this and find out for yourself. Im really disappointed in all this. But the B.B.B. told me what to look for.
A reminder of better times. Once again, good Christian country folk can't be passive. Have God and family in your heart, a gun on your side, and if you see something that doesn't jive with the 10 commandments, all stand up with your palm on your holster and say, " No Sir! Not in my town!"
I grew up in a small town. My wife grew up in an even smaller town. All of my kids are growing up in my small town, as are my grandchildren. Thanks dear Lord for small towns.
@John Anderson , seeing your response has brought much joy to my heart. Your music touches the soul like no other. The song " years" brings me to tears each time I watch it. I'm just a few years younger than you and I cannot believe that time passes us by so quickly. I know you've had some rough years recently health wise. Please know that we are praying for you and care deeply for you.
John, I just want to say THANK YOU, for keeping music clean and simple, for keeping it real, for bringing to life the sentiment and feeling of every day folks. I was born in South America, but your music makes me feel more American than apple pie. God bless you and your family. My Favorite song so far.... Those Years
Sounds like the place i grew up..americana...late 70's early eighties was still a good county...i hate the change now......hell John from swinging every dam were in background, when i was a kid..good memories..cassette tape...🤙🏻 awesome talent ...im southern too..i can relate..🇺🇸small town , bout gone..
I'm going to see John in Augusta on Oct 1st and I'm going to have me a sign that says PLAY SMALL TOWN and get right in the front of the stage where he has to see me. Went to see him in Statesboro, GA last year and he didn't play it and I was a little disappointed but not a whole lot cause everything he sang was GREAT!
Went to a country music dance hall /bar and John Anderson was performing there that night I was front row standing the whole time what a awesome talent , amazing how it seems he was always over looked , great song writer as well ,
This man sounds so darn good! Saw him in concert at the Martinsville Speedway a few years ago and he sounded like the first time he recorded a single. Thank you John for this memory for me and my hubby. Enjoyed this concert at the Martinsville Speed way in Martinsville, VA
This song is amazing.. i love this album so much. There are such great songs like this, South Moon Under, Who's Who What's What, Somebody Slap Me and so on.... i will never forget seeing John for the first time as a teen back in 1998..amazing!
I grew up in the country between towns of 300 and 500. Now I live in the city, which is ok, but it is not the same. I really miss living in a rural area. I felt like I had more freedom.
At times because of the current times, I wish I could stay forever in my small town moment when I'd wake up in Greeley, Colorado, and see the sun shining in through the window and at the same time, I could hear eggs frying. My grandma who raised me would be up early cooking. God I miss her so!
Much credit must go to the people in this mini movie and the director . Well put together , it's making memories come alive for all the listeners . 🇨🇦🇺🇸🏁✨
I was playing this in the truck one day and a buddy said he'd heard the voice before and when I told him who it was he remembered. He had been at a hay ride near Apopka Fl and a guy with a guitar hopped on and started playing for them. No pay, no big announcement. He just played, and it was John Anderson.
rp9876 p Thats because folks like John Anderson dont care 'bout money but they would give you the shirt off of their back if you needed it because they genuinely care about you.
Aaaah, I used to sit back and listen to the train roll by, used to go three times a day, but they shut down the line a couple years ago, miss the sound of those ancient Diesel engines chuggin along.
John Anderson is a national treasure !!!!
This video really captures the America that I miss so much..i'm only 44 but things have changed so much in my lifetime...
I think I must be a lucky man,i was raised in a place just like this,kind of like a modern day Mayberry.
Now this is country music, what they play today make's no sense. i has no meaning, but this. This song reminds me of where i grew up in West Virginia. I might be young but i sure do know country music when i hear it. Good job John Anderson!
Listen to average old country music from the 60’s, it was pretty bad too, but we remember the good stuff.
Awesome 😎
John Anderson is so often overlooked but as far is I'm concerned he's one of the artists that carried the 90's on his shoulders. Straight tequila night and Seminole wind are absolute classics and hold so much nostalgia with me for the way life used to be
BurningRelic28❤❤❤...
11 years later and new country is trashy RAP & Hiphop trailer trash music...
Beautiful song.
To the South: I love you forever.
Thank you, John Anderson.
You are so right my friend John Anderson is a National Treasure he is an icon of America without him we would be in trouble
My "Small Town" was Rosine, Kentucky where Maw, Papa & Mom Dad were from. Miss it so much. Miss Friends. Miss Family.
Proudly made in the small towns of Fiddlers Grove, TN and Watertown, TN.
This song has been stuck in my head for a week now. This truly makes me proud to be an American. Not our government but the simple and humble people who make this country. A small town is were I'll be found.God bless all. Sincerely drumwish2010
This song makes me yearn for a simpler time. 😢
Been years since I’ve heard this great song. Thank you again John Anderson. 🇺🇸
Wish people still had morals & values. ..
Common sense would help too!!
I love country music
Thank you ,always
Loving his new album, “Years.” There will never be another John!!!
Where did great country singers like John go????? This is a real country song, not that pop crap that masquerades as country music today.
im away in the military.. this song really makes me miss home..
I hope you made it home, brother.
Grew up in this small town where video was made. My dad was in video. He has been dead for 15 years. I still love to watch video, it reminds me of my dad and growing up in Watertown tn
Absolutely a beautiful song and a great video. Americana at it's best. God Bless Our Country.
One of the greatest, There will never be another like him. He is an icon for real country.

Small town folk are the best! Especially when you win HS football state championship! Small town pride, southern comfort
I grew up in a small town. My wife grew up in an even smaller town. All of my kids are growing up in my small town, as are my grandchildren. Thanks dear Lord for small towns.
Amen and amen
That's awesome... Everyone came bought my entire little town up. I can't even show my kids anything

I Love John Anderson...........He was on the tail-end of of real country. He makes really good music...!!!
He was in 1984 with Swing'n.....👍🏻🥰
John, I just want to say THANK YOU, for keeping music clean and simple, for keeping it real, for bringing to life the sentiment and feeling of every day folks.

He is definitely one of the BEST !!
Agreed 100%
Wish country was still like this
Amen! I wish too
you and me both
you couldnt be more right!!
It does in the hearts and memories of us who have lived in small towns.
Between 2 corn fields 2 stoplights growing up on Hank Williams. This is real COUNTRY music.
They just don't sing em' like that anymore. Such a voice.
If this doesn't make you teary eyed nothing will!
I always enjoy listening to John singing. The songs hit home in the heart.
We love you Mr president take use home
you can't get any better!!!!!
John Anderson is so great!
Everybody loves John ..the likes with thumbs up have been messed up thru out youtube..no..truth what-so-ever...
John is best country in my ear, I love him
Pure gold!
I believe John is the greatest artist in the world today. Everything he did was fantastic.
I couldn’t agree more David. My favorite by John Anderson is “Seminole Wind “.
He is one of the greatest, no question about that. Not to me, anyway. Sincerely, a Georgia native.
Sounds like the place i grew up..americana...late 70's early eighties was still a good county...i hate the change now......hell John from swinging every dam were in background, when i was a kid..good memories..cassette tape...🤙🏻 awesome talent ...im southern too..i can relate..🇺🇸small town , bout gone..
everything went to crap in the 90's. I agree 100%
I'm going to see John in Augusta on Oct 1st and I'm going to have me a sign that says PLAY SMALL TOWN and get right in the front of the stage where he has to see me. Went to see him in Statesboro, GA last year and he didn't play it and I was a little disappointed but not a whole lot cause everything he sang was GREAT!
I just love that little guitar riff in this song
John Anderson is true Country!
Real music comes from the heart from love of pain story telling music
I love small towns you can still saddle up your pony and ride to the market. There may even be a hitching post there too.
one of the greatest singers of all times, we need you here today,10/22. we need you john.
Howdy all y'all brothers and sisters.....listen a Country song like this....makes me wonder how much i may thank GOD, To be from South.
Carlos Vieira amen brother
Amen!! Proud of where I come from and Proud of my ancestors that fought in every war this nation has ever seen.
My home,Woodfin NC,,I love you.
My hometown ( pop. 616 ) ...small town but great memories...still listening to John in 2019..…
Went to a country music dance hall /bar and John Anderson was performing there that night I was front row standing the whole time what a awesome talent , amazing how it seems he was always over looked , great song writer as well ,
Yes they are.. Grew up in a town of 300 and would love nothing more than to live out my life there
Amazzzzzing song !!
I can recall when Apopka was a small town. I miss that.
I think the only reason people leaves small towns...is for work. But, they always want to go back. I came back home 5 years ago...I am very happy..!!!
This man sounds so darn good! Saw him in concert at the Martinsville Speedway a few years ago and he sounded like the first time he recorded a single. Thank you John for this memory for me and my hubby. Enjoyed this concert at the Martinsville Speed way in Martinsville, VA
Love his music & definitely his voice
Great song.
Living strong in a small town in Tennessee for about 30 years now.
This man is a legend!! Love him, his voice. No other voice like him. The 39 who disliked it probably like luke bryan.
accurate
Your probably right........Luke who..??......the older stuff is ALOT better...!!
some of his music is very good, some is too sappy, people should be able to say what they think, yes? J. Anderson, good entertainer.. not 100% who is?
Who the hell is Luke Bryan
dollarbill108 I would have liked your comment but I like where it's at
This song is amazing.. i love this album so much. There are such great songs like this, South Moon Under, Who's Who What's What, Somebody Slap Me and so on.... i will never forget seeing John for the first time as a teen back in 1998..amazing!
SOLID GOLD!!
Solid ground!
OMG! That hits hard!
That's what she said.
Old school he's good your in our hearts
We love you John keep it up I want too see you come to Alabama

I love how his voice seems to do volume swells.
He's gonna be in Florida May 8th I can't wait to see him and Colt Ford!!
Lucky man. I lived in a town of 300+. Smalltowns are where life is.
Much credit must go to the people in this mini movie and the director . Well put together , it's making memories come alive for all the listeners . 🇨🇦🇺🇸🏁✨
📢He is a legend...ppl don't know shit bout real country if they don't realize that💪🤠
@John Anderson thanks.man..your fucking awesome
I wish everyone could grow up in a small town. I actually mean everyone, not just the fortunate!
John Anderson is Legend, folks.
This song inspired KoL to name their 5th Studio Album "come around sundown"
I didn’t know that, are you related to KOL I saw your last name?
Great great song! I'm a metal head but I love good country too!
MAGA is all about this song...everyone enjoying life and getting along...living simple
What a great country sound....!
Love the old songs bring back remember s
There's still places like this song. We need to keep our eyes open to see the beauty around us and this is a reminder.
amen
my old lady actually believed they rolled up the side walks at dark when she was a little girl. I love you girl.
Good jam. Will repeat.

Just "REAL Folks"
Aaaah, I used to sit back and listen to the train roll by, used to go three times a day, but they shut down the line a couple years ago, miss the sound of those ancient Diesel engines chuggin along.
