This song has always sounded so melancholy to me. Between the beautiful guitar, and the tone of Ronnie's voice throughout the song, it always leaves me sad, especially when you consider all the tragedies the band went through. I don't think Lynyrd Skynyrd ever produced a bad song.
It still hurts too here them after all these years. There plane crashed about 3 miles from my home at the time in Ggillsburg Mississippi in 1977 it was my sister's birthday October 20th I was at the hospital with my mom I got suspended from school for smoking something.. I was waiting on mom to finish her shift so we go have my sis birthday. When all the sudden the doors flew open and the medics started bringing all these people in very bloody I heard the sheriff tell the doctor bunch of hippies had a plane crash. I didn't even know it was Lynyrd Skynyrd didn't find out it was them until we had got home and seen it on the news. I was devastated I was about 16 years old love Lynyrd Skynyrd they were the biggest band in the world at that time. RIP Skynyrd..
@@jakesmith1942 yes Jake it seemed like it was just a few years ago.. Most my family was musicians my dad was a simi famous drummer he played with the drifters and several other bands the rest of my uncle's was guitar player's I chose the guitar because of skynyrd. Allman brothers. Of course uncle billy ZZ Top showed me dad was friends with alot old rockers I get up at 3am there no telling who be in the living room jammin I look back I'm pretty sure they was scoring some of dads Pharmaceuticals.lol he died in 1985 a few days after my daughter was born. He was 40 the rock n roll lifestyle got him like it did a lot of people. It almost got me. Its funny every always said I wouldn't see 40 if I didn't slow down.. Well I'm pass 60 a few years ago. Doin OK lost my wife to cancer. The same yr I had a pretty bad motorcycle accident mangled my cord hand so I can't even pick my ax anymore. But it was gods way of saving me took me out of that lifestyle.. No booze no Pharmaceuticals. No dive bars. Just my flower garden and green tea. By the way my beautiful late wife was from Cincinnati we met at a bar I was playing at in cinci I was looking her concert photo album not long ago she had be to over 400 concerts mostly river front in Cincinnati. She was at the who concert when all them people got killed.u
Angela, what your reaction beautifully points out is that a song can mean different things to different people. What was so great about Skynyrd was they could play a song like this, and the next minute play "Gimme Three Steps". Ronnie was such a dynamic performer and personality. The music world wasn't the same after his passing.
Lynyrd Skynyrd was a complete band, they could write a masterpiece like Free Bird, a ballot like this rock the hell out of you or kick your ass in a bar fight.
Met some people at Starwood Amphitheater in Nashville TN in 1991 at there reunion concert. If you had that last ticket stub you got in there concerts free. It was a moment I'll never forget holding that stub. Great memories!!
LISTENING TOO THAT CLASSIC 70'S ROCK IS AS ENJOYABLE AS WATCHING YOUR APPRECATION FOR FINE MUSIC . YOU ARE A SOULFUL GIRL AND NOT ' NOT SO HARD ON THE EYES'
I saw them in concert a couple months before the plane crash that killed many of the band members. My first rock concert of my life. They were with Ted Nugent and REO Speedwagon. What a day!! Fantastic.
You nailed it! This is a song I listened to on a road trip after a tough breakup I really never understood. Such an emotional song. It' s a shame I see Abe Lincoln, Apollo Creed, and crocodile every time I hear it now. Thanks Happy Gilmore.
I see the movie Dazed And Confused! I love that movie since I was 16 in 1976 when that movie took place! Such memories! The 70s were the best time of my life!
I can't tell you what this song means to me. Skynyrd's "One More from the Road" was one of the first three albums I bought, about 40 years ago, when I was 12. It was on cassette.
mine was Pronounced. I was 13. it was vinyl. later on I got an 8 track for the car when I started driving. Had all of them by then. I was "that guy" with the cases and cases full of 8 tracks in the car lol.
@@Hobodeluxe960 I was "that guy" also. Lived in Jacksonville FL at the time. Someone did me a favor and stole all of the 8 tracks out of my car. Thankfully I had all of Skynyrd on vinyl as well. Never went back to 8 track. Pronounced still holds a place in my heart.
Al Kooper's Mellotron String sounds, does it for me in this tune. Also found out original Skynyrd drummer Bob Burns, didn't play on this track. ARS drummer Robert Nix did.
@@juliemanarin4127 Hi thanks I was exposed to a different genre of music and wasn't later in my teen years that I was listening to rock music in the early 80's
My dear Angela 🥰 absolutely loved your reaction to this very touching song. Great pick Rick this is my favorite Skynyrd song. “train roll on I’m many miles from my home you see I’m riding my blues away” 🚂
Lead singer n lead guitarist died in their 20s in a plane crash, but they still made some songs that changed a generation, and made hope that it could be done again.
New to me! It's a cool tune, but my favorite my them is Sweet Home Alabama! Free Bird is a close 2nd! Hearing Tuesday reminds me of the tune by The Moody Blues titled Tuesday Afternoon! Safe travels and goodbye for now!
I wish someone would react to Lynyrd Skynyrd's first song on their first album called "I Ain't The One" sometime. I have yet to hear it reacted to by any music reactor. Maybe someday...
"Your talkin jive" Most of these reacters get all their songs from viewers who request them to listen to the same old overplayed radio hits. They'll never hear the gem you're talking about. she's lucky someone requested this great song. Good for her to give it a listen.
Thank you for doing these. I don’t have any friends but I love music, and I feel like I’m listening to it with you, singing with you, chair dancing, the whole nine. You make me forget how lonely I feel sometimes.
I came here for the Elvis reactions but I've listened to four or five of them now across the board and it's always so fun. It would be so fun to be there with you and fill in some context here and there but as a musician, I just enjoy it too man I love the idea of moving to the beat and just kind of really feeling out what is actually happening. Imagine yourself playing different instruments and so forth which it seems like you do sometimes. Like seem like you were making a piano playing motion at one point. Which made total sense to me.
One of their very best!! Kind of makes me wish this vid had come out on Tuesday, but so it goes! Speaking of Tuesday, Angela, one fine day you should consider a reaction to "Ruby Tuesday" by The Rolling Stones. Very different vibe from this one, but equally cool!! Keep on doing what you are doing (fastest rising young superstar on RUclips!!!)! Peace!!
@@jefflast9489 Great point, Jeff! Angie is an automatic choice, and let's not forget "She's A Rainbow" while we are suggesting great songs for our Angela!!
@@keymack2477 I get a real kick out of watching Angela "swoon" over classics! I think "Wild Horses" would give her those dreamy, "Far Away" eyes...lol!
Tuesdays gone is about his divorce with his wife...the divorce was finalized on a Tuesday... knowing this you can actually feel his pain... fantastic song
This is definitely a road song, and a post break-up, point the car in any direction and just drive tune. The production and musicianship are apparent, and I absolutely LOVE the string arrangement- It really adds to the atmosphere.
I'm glad your interpretation and your beautiful smile. Because I get deep depression from listening to it. Not a single person from the 70s or 80 and most the 90s are here. I'm all that's left. Ironically house the one everybody kept telling me I would not live to see 30 at the rate I parted yet there all gone I'm still here. And you talking about motorcycle riding I wrecked my hog in 2018 and destroyed 2 fingers they was able to retached them but but can not bend them they it was to much tendon Loss. This is not want you want too hear when your a guitar player right before you was supposed to go on the road for 3 months. So now I'm sober sorta. Lol and I watch reaction videos
Hello Angela, I really enjoy seeing how you enjoy good music and if you like good music, here's a song I think you would like, Bob Seger's ( Main street)
To me It's a sad song Especially after watching the Lynyrd Skynyrd Documentary, after you find out the Lead Singer Ronnie Van Zant , plus 2 other members of the band, 6 people in total die in a plane crash. The credits start to roll, this song starts to play and to the side they start showing pictures of the band, during happier times, made me want to cry :(
There's a great song called " Layla" by Derrick and the Dominoes it has a member of the Allman brothers band and Eric Clapton and the guitar sounds like it's crying. Two of the best guitarist in the world.
Nice reaction. I'm still hoping you might do some Wilco. They're one of the best bands of the last 30 years and almost no reactions to them. To start, Id suggest "Jesus, etc", "Heavy Metal Drummer", "Shot in the Arm", "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart", "Impossible Germany", "You Are My Face", "One Wing", "One by One". Thank you.
I would like to request the Atlanta Rhythm Section and the song is "I'm not going to let it bother me tonight". It's an upbeat song which I think is needed nowadays. And then when you're ready I will recommend some good sexophone songs you probably haven't heard or don't remember.
you should give a listen to Yoshida Brothers - Rising. then listen to 'Storm' ;) they play Shamisens (traditional Japanese musical instrument) with a rock band.
Be sure to wear a full faced helmet, boots, gloves and the rest of the appropriate gear to be safe out there! I know if I were a father, I'd have ulcers and migraines from worrying about my kids, so I have classic vehicles instead! To each his or her own! Goodbye once again!
we Americans fought for our freedom and as a American I can not look myself in the face and watch another countries freedom being attacked that is why I have volunteered to fight with the Ukraine legion I will be leaving soon to be there and fight.
I'll say Billy Powell was the "hidden gem" in Lynyrd Skynyrd....just my favorite piano player in rock 'n roll
This song has always sounded so melancholy to me. Between the beautiful guitar, and the tone of Ronnie's voice throughout the song, it always leaves me sad, especially when you consider all the tragedies the band went through.
I don't think Lynyrd Skynyrd ever produced a bad song.
Ronnie was a brilliant song writer he had the gift
This song is just epic, every part of it.
It certainly is
Lynyrd Skynyrd is awesome! I can listen to them all day. Love Simple Man and Freebird and the greatest multi guitar solo in history.
Hotel California would beg to differ.
It still hurts too here them after all these years.

Lynyrd Skynyrd was a complete band, they could write a masterpiece like Free Bird, a ballot like this rock the hell out of you or kick your ass in a bar fight.
I first took a shine to them when I heard their old blues stuff. 4 Walls of Raiford, Mr Banker, The honky-tonk swing of "Things Goin On."
I was at their last concert before the plane crash. Still haunts me
Met some people at Starwood Amphitheater in Nashville TN in 1991 at there reunion concert. If you had that last ticket stub you got in there concerts free. It was a moment I'll never forget holding that stub. Great memories!!
I was also there in Greenville SC
I went to there Lakeland, fl show just a few days before the plane crashed.
I saw them in Portland Maine with Foreigner and 38 Special 6 months before the crash
Greenville is a great town! Hate that this was part of its history.
LISTENING TOO THAT CLASSIC 70'S ROCK IS AS ENJOYABLE AS WATCHING YOUR APPRECATION FOR FINE MUSIC . YOU ARE A SOULFUL GIRL AND NOT ' NOT SO HARD ON THE EYES'
Fabulous song!! They are a great band!! You’re right! Perfect road trip song!
This is one of my favorites from Skynyrd, as you can tell by my channel name.
I saw them in concert a couple months before the plane crash that killed many of the band members. My first rock concert of my life. They were with Ted Nugent and REO Speedwagon. What a day!! Fantastic.
I love this song! I saw them front row center back in the day!
OH YEAK....Look at you dropping one of the best songs by one of the best bands ever.
You nailed it! This is a song I listened to on a road trip after a tough breakup I really never understood. Such an emotional song. It' s a shame I see Abe Lincoln, Apollo Creed, and crocodile every time I hear it now. Thanks Happy Gilmore.

Mr Allen Collins is one of my fav guitarist. 🎸 🎸 🎸 🎸 🎸
Al Kooper's Mellotron String sounds, does it for me in this tune. Also found out original Skynyrd drummer Bob Burns, didn't play on this track. ARS drummer Robert Nix did.
This song takes me back to easier times. Remember everyone singing to this song around a big fire, keg of beer etc. It was awesome.
Best Lynyrd Skynyrd song ever, America’s greatest shit kicking foot stomping rock n roll band
Man, the piano is AWESOME in this song 🎶🎶🎶
Billy Powell's piano is my favorite part of this song 🎸🎶
My favorite band!!
Such a beautiful, beautiful song. Lynyrd Skynyrd were such a great band. Any of their material before the plane crash are well worth checking out.
I’m still binging your videos and I love them all. Please keep it up 👼.
What can I say about this band, they ROCK!
One of my all time favorite songs. I thought your interpretation of it was pretty spot on. It really is a song that helps center you
*This and Simple Man are my two favorite Skynyrd songs.*
I'm always open to songs I've never heard and I've heard a few songs from them but never this one an I liked it a lot lot thanks for posting it
You probably weren't a teen in the 70s like I was!
@BC.. me, too. I just wasn’t exposed to LS at the time. Maybe I lived too far North… lol. But finally loving this, now!
@@juliemanarin4127 Hi thanks I was exposed to a different genre of music and wasn't later in my teen years that I was listening to rock music in the early 80's
@@tedcole9936 Yes me too I can appreciate it more today than before
Another great Skynyrd song that can get you emotional is "Coming Home".
Yes a beloved song of there's.
That's a great choice, and, my favourite Skynyrd song.
Mr Billy powell was amazing on those keys. 🎹 🎹 🎹 🎹
Just started trying to learn to play this on guitar. Greatly hampered by the fact that I am not very good......but I keep plugging away at it
Love it, keep plugging!!!
My dear Angela 🥰 absolutely loved your reaction to this very touching song. Great pick Rick this is my favorite Skynyrd song. “train roll on I’m many miles from my home you see I’m riding my blues away” 🚂
Do " Can't you see " Marshall Tucker Band.... It is a all time classic
Also Fire on the mountain
And my favorite Heard It In A Love Song.
Lead singer n lead guitarist died in their 20s in a plane crash, but they still made some songs that changed a generation, and made hope that it could be done again.
Dobie Gray and "Drift Away" has the same feeling of melancholy. Both great tunes
Do a Simple Man from Lynyrd Skynyrd, a beautiful touching song.
Damn beautiful song. Perfection that touches me every time I hear it. I too have to carry on...
Love the way you listened to the whole thing before commenting. You really enjoyed the symphony and harmony.
Love Skynyrd! Used to listen to them in my wilder days over a decade ago!
“There's too much coke and too much smoke
Look what's going on inside you!”
Man-o-man this music takes me back to my youth.
That song is definitely been on a lot of road trips from a lot of cars and a lot of motorcycles.
Here's a song for the trip home AFTER your road trip with a similar vibe. LYNYRD SKYNYRD: "Comin' Home"
Now you got to do freebird live from Oakland in 1977
New to me! It's a cool tune, but my favorite my them is Sweet Home Alabama! Free Bird is a close 2nd! Hearing Tuesday reminds me of the tune by The Moody Blues titled Tuesday Afternoon! Safe travels and goodbye for now!
Simple Man is my favorite.

One of my favorites from Skynard.
If you want the most touching Lynyrd Skynyrd song check out Simple Man. One of the members wrote it about his mom after she passed away.
Epic song. Epic band. Skynyrd elevated southern rock to timeless, monumental classics.
One of their very best!! Kind of makes me wish this vid had come out on Tuesday, but so it goes!

Good choice, but I think Angela would enjoy "Angie" and most definitely "Wild Horses" by the Stones.
Agreed. I'd also suggest Melanie's version of Ruby Tuesday.

Tuesdays gone is about his divorce with his wife...the divorce was finalized on a Tuesday... knowing this you can actually feel his pain... fantastic song
the piano solo gives the impression of a train accelerating
We played this on one of our missions to "nowhere" we all came back alive but he got his head straight
I always thought this to be a mourning song about leaving his girl (Tuesday) who died (ashes gone with the wind). Trying to move forward.
They are my favorite band. Simple Man is a great song of there's you need to definitely play it soon.
Nice selection!
This is definitely a road song, and a post break-up, point the car in any direction and just drive tune. The production and musicianship are apparent, and I absolutely LOVE the string arrangement- It really adds to the atmosphere.
Excellent tune!!! Can you play freebird live? Oakland California I'm your number one fan!!!!!

Guitars can cry.
I would like to request the
Atlanta Rhythm Section
and the song is
"I'm not going to let it bother me tonight".
It's an upbeat song which I think is needed nowadays.
And then when you're ready I will recommend some good sexophone songs you probably haven't heard or don't remember.
you should give a listen to Yoshida Brothers - Rising. then listen to 'Storm' ;) they play Shamisens (traditional Japanese musical instrument) with a rock band.
Be sure to wear a full faced helmet, boots, gloves and the rest of the appropriate gear to be safe out there! I know if I were a father, I'd have ulcers and migraines from worrying about my kids, so I have classic vehicles instead! To each his or her own! Goodbye once again!
