    When I was a teenager, I swore that I would never be like my father. Now that I'm 30, and my Dad is 70, I see that I've turned out a lot like him in every respect. This song, but this version and the classic have a deep impact on me.

      I never heard this song ever played (in Houston) I was listening to a vinnie paz/ Prozak station on pandora, and this played. It hooked me. Hits hard, hits home, it's got a "tactile" sense to it, it grooves, and you feel the weight and texture of the music, and lyrics. Like a fucking blanket, draped and heavy, full of old scars, and stains, but it's beautiful, and has memory.

    He didn’t have much
    A pair of hard working hands
    Everything that I needed
    I got it from the old man
    With a nine second dream
    He drove the Redlight Bandit
    And the grease on his hands
    Was the way he commanded
    And the life he demanded
    It kept us all in a struggle
    When he ruled with his fist
    It kept us all out of trouble
    Even though he would leave
    He wore his heart on his sleeve
    And by the way that he walked
    He taught me how to believe
    Old man look at my life
    Take a look, take a look
    Old man look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    Take a look, take a look
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Growin’ up at the track
    He had a reason for being fast
    His heart felt like breaking
    He’d look right up at the ceiling and
    Start again, never breathe a word of his loss
    Cause it’s not about winning
    It’s the rivers you cross
    And the pain that you feel
    Could be the fuel that you use
    And if you’re in need of direction
    Be it the path that you choose
    My old man is a legend
    He cast a shadow so great
    I think of how he is watchin’
    With every move that I make
    Old man look at my life
    Take a look, take a look
    Old man look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    Take a look, take a look
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Now there’s no slowin’ down
    There’s only settin’ the pace
    No more dreams to be stolen
    Just the right ones to chase
    You’ve been through the worst
    Now you know who to trust
    Leave them something behind
    Before the ashes and dust
    Old man look at my life
    Old man look at my life
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    Take a look, take a look
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    Take a look, take a look
    Old man, old man take a look at my life
    cause I’m a lot like you

    My old man is 79 years old. I'm a few weeks away from 57. When I was 17, I hated that he'd come home from work and fall asleep reading the local paper. Now, I wish I could do the same. What goes around comes around. He was certainly a hard working man. And me and my brother deserved what we got from him. We never lost a red light race. None of us. Dad's garage was filled with trophies we never spoke about. Bragging was for pussies. I love you pops. I wish I could be just like you.

      Leslie, he's become my fourth child. I tell him everyday. Just wish I could have said it to him when it mattered most- around his friends, brothers, and family. The old f*cker floors every new care I drive, makes me rewire and paint every old car he picks up, and talks shop about things we've discussed repeatedly over the years. His glory days.

    • @lj2850
      @lj2850 9 лет назад +6

      Oh, I'm so sorry. That must be so tough. It's nice you are there for him now. He knows how you feel even if he can't show it; he's hearing the words and may understand more than we realize. Good luck.

    Thank you Dad for teaching me, the importance of making your word matter and try best to always keep your word as real as possible with the amount of knowledge you have at the time, and man enough to admit your wrongs, and brave enough to see through the BS, call it out if necessary, and in the end let God take care of fools, because you have children who love you, just as you loved me growing up. And Dad I found your journals so you would forget about me, and along with the help of your Grandchildren, even a ex son in law, who still needed a Dad to look up too, and a talk from someone who you must have respected there words, because before you went home to Heaven this last year, they brought you back to me, so I could tell I'm proud to have you as my Dad, and we should them that with forgiveness and trying to do the things, Love and Faith will always find its way back to you, with faith as little as mustard seed, God knows our hearts, and he knew he had a son he could be of in you, Dad. RIP please take care of your Grandson for me up in Heaven until we meet Again. Thank you for being my BFF and my Dad. You shall missed but never forgotten. Love always your Daughter

    My dad died in 2014. I had just lost my daughter. The day before he passed, we took our bikes and had a cruise to get the wind blow through us. When things went bad he always found ways to show that he related to me and my issue, but knew he would always be there for me. Now that he has passed, I don't know if I could ever be a fraction of the man he was, but know that I still do my best to make him.proud of me.

    Innovative concept. I'm a big Neil Young fan and not into rap, but somehow he makes it work. Well done.

      Ed A. You're still talking? You're lame, why do you think you'll never have any hot girls be head over heels for you? Is this the part where you tell me you have a beautiful girlfriend? Ok, even if that IS true, she's going to dump you eventually. Because you're a pathetic sap.

    • @eda.1700
      @eda.1700 10 лет назад +7

      Neal Cox Really? Where'd that even come from haha. Why am I a pathetic sap? I talked down to someone who deserved it. So what? I'm finished with it now so I don't see any problems. Really though... What the Hell did girls have to do with any of that? And you really are in no place to judge me because you don't actually know me. In reality I am probably more respectful to women than a majority of the guys my age and I'm also loyal to anyone who is decent enough to earn my respect. Try getting to know someone first. You might just have a different opinion of them. G'night man.

    Now this is how ya do a remake!! You keep the original feel and sound but completely make it your own and change it enough that it's not just a straight up copy! Amazing job! This is on par with what the band Cake did with war pigs when it remade that black sabbath classic! Ya should do yourself a favor and check it out if you've never heard it! You'll be blown away for sure!! Both are outstanding remakes, 2 of the absolute best I've ever heard!

      I like it. But don't think its better or original. Just a good remix. There are a few songs that the sequel was better. Pressure has been done by a few. This songs good but doesn't add to the original.

    I was real skeptical at first when my friend told me about the "new' version of "Old Man"...to be honest, I'm not into "new" music because alot of it is garbage, (no offense intended)...but I like the song. It may be quite different from the original, but I think it carries the same message...I like it.
