I just lost my Dad yesterday and this song has always reminded me of him and how I try to be half the man he was. RIP Dad
I can feel your pain. I just lost my Dad on July 24th 2020. I wish I could just talk with him one more time. So much left unsaid. I love & miss ya Pop's. I hope Heavens got the greatest shooting range just for you Sir. SEMPER FI
Im sorry for your loss
My prayers to you and may he rest in peace
Oh sorry for your loss I bet he was perfect 🙏
I knows its been 8 years for you but its been 2 weeks for me. I'm sorry for your loss. I hope it gets better.
The hardest line ever," my old man is a legend he cast a shadow so great" ,I wish I could fill a tenth of my dad's shadow. I miss that old man so much. Love your dad while you can and remember him always. Stay safe and healthy everyone
Me too!!
My father passed away today. This song came on as I hopped in my rig to drive. Love you pops.
Sorry for your loss brother
Losing a Parent has to be awful, I fear losing mine to a degree I would rather go first. I cannot Imagine what it's like. I'm sorry for your loss.
My old man is 72 worked the same job for 47 years made sure we had food shelter and that my mom myself and little brother were taken care of dad you are one tough badass guy thannks for all you do
update he's now 75 and he's not stopping anytime soon
This song instantly became one of my favorite songs of all time.
Best day of my life was when my son sent this song to me.... love you son!
+odatmatt thats dope
odatmatt cool
Sa Da no
My was from my dad. Cat's in the cradle .
My song to dad. He had a song for me. Cat's in the cradle.
HEY REDLIGHT KING THANX FOR THIS.I'M THAT OLD MAN NOW 60.ROCKIN OUT TILL I DIE
Beers In Heaven 🍻 R.I.P. Dad . Far from forgotten 💙
I lost my dad Oct. 31, 2011. He was 58 years old. Retired Army.
RIP DWB
This is a grossly underrated song. I'm an enormous Neil young fan and this is just awesome.
See, that's what I was feeling too. Thanks for saying it.
This version far beats the Neil Young version.
What's cool is Neil Young approves of this song 😀
I totally agree with you!!!!
Ravenbar's Repairs Eh... lol. No. Don't need to bash the other song to say this one is good.
"Growing up at the track he had a reason for bein fast" RIP Pap We all miss you! I wish I wasn't so young I could've learned so much and life would be so much easier!!! 🙏❤️
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.
Mine dropped dead at that point hope yours goes better
I am the spitting image of my dad at the same age and the my voice sounds exactly like his I am his literal clone
@Jerad Gautier Thanks, he's nearly 76 now, and still healthy.
I had a really rocky relationship with my dad. Both songs hit me hard for good and bad reasons. But mostly make me miss him. Very powerful songs.
@@jamiecarpenter3928same
Thank you to my dad, for never letting me know what having daddy issues feels like growing up. I have never seen a harder working man in my life, you are appreciated and loved very much.
💯🤘
My nephew sent the song to me the day after my Dad passed. I cried like s baby it hit way to close to home. Great song!!!
Lost my dad 9 years ago today. Listen to this song every year on this day.
My condolences to you
My old man passed when I was 18 back in 2002. My time with him was cut short but he was the best and the only one who understood me. Now 19 yrs later I'm 37 with 3 kids, I can listen to this and smile knowing he's guiding me through. Great tune!
My father passed away in 2008. November 2nd was his birthday.

"My old man is a legend he cast a shadow so great i think of how he is watching with every move that i make"
Great verse
Lost my pops 23 years ago
I'm the same age now as when he died.
Miss 'em every day....
I got that bit tattoed in my arm :)
Just lost my dad on Thursday, I resonated with that verse to.
I nearly lost my old man. He is still on this earth with and that is the best thing I can ask for Christmas!! Keep fighting old man!
Just buried the old man. 96 years young. I hope to one day be half the man he was.
Lost my Dad 28th April 2024 just days ago hits home for sure
My condolences may rest in peace
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.
Miss my dad. Pancreatic cancer treatment took him fast. He was much as described in song. Awesome, Solid. Super Funny and Kind…. But not to be f’d with. As it should be. God bless all of you friends
Parkinson's disease took my father took my father too soon
widowmaker. day after my wife was approved to move to america. and he was out town
I know this song is about loving and respecting your father. But I'm so so glad I'm nothing like mine.
I lost my dad too 6months after my mom and my dad helped so many people in life... He picked my mom up in a Volkswagen beattle with no floor. And saved his money ...and worked his way up..teaching the lesson never give up.❤
As a father sometimes we only think about what we want our sons to be. Its easy to not notice what we give them without even knowing. My old man gave me what I needed. My son turned me on to this video..I thank him for that.
Now this is how you make a respectful remake of a classic song!
This one's for you Dad, thanks for everything. Love you always, faults and all. I still have your back just like you did mine RIP
Redlight had to get permission to use the Neil Young tracks in this, which Young NEVER gives. Once he saw this video, he gave it in a heartbeat.
Wow Noone gives a fuck
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
U
Rudyard Kipling...a line in his famous poem is in this song
"Start at your beginnings, never breathe a word of your loss..
I lost my father 15 years ago.but I walk and do as he would....never give up no surrender..ya don't get to live twice so live for what you stand
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
One does not simply not think about their father and grandfather while listening to this song
Reminds me of my dad. Gone 24 years ago. I'm a lot like you dad & I know you're watching. 😘
Dads been gone nearly 4 yrs now and my sister sent me this song. A mirror of me and him. He had to win sat night or we didnt have the gas to go home. Now i can grieve. Didnt till i heard this
I lost my Dad yesterday and he had always been the most hard worker man I had the pleasure of knowing and who raised his daughter to get back up and fight, and live your not being some sheep, instead be a Wolf if needed and make your matter, cause in the end it's all about living by example, no matter how many times we got it wrong, all that matters is the one time we got it right and should the Grandchildren that Faith is real, may need help with getting the right words out sometimes, but if a person looks for them, most of what we want or should say can be find in a song or two, just have follow the signs. I will miss dad until we meet up in Heaven, but you shall never be forgotten, your legacy will on through your Grandchildren and myself, please give Caleb a hug and kiss from his mama bear for me. I love you forever xx
My condolences for your loss my good man
Huge respect to Neil and Kaz. Serious generation hand-off for the song, the message and the vibe. Message is solid, end to end and year to year, some to remember and something to fear. Well done - PNW US Salutes The NorBorders. Well Done.
Man, my dad introduced me to Redlight King when I was eight, ever since then, this has always been our song.
My dad passed away December 4 he was a great builder he actually built Neil Young‘s recording studio this song was recorded in and remodeled his house back in 74 I was seven years old then looked up to him just the way I do now and always well amen
Only song that makes me cry as a son, and a dad.
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.
+oldsarge101 Tell him now.
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.
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.
+oldsarge101 ........great little story !! thanks for sharing
unfortunately nobody gives a fuck
Hard to believe 10yrs has passed since this song was released! I remember the first time I heard it on the radio.
I heard it about a year ago and felll in love and haven’t ever gotten sick of it
Same!!
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.
Sept 8th 2022, I lost my dad. Life won’t ever be the same. I always called him old man. Loved Neil young’s version then I heard this and fell in love all over again. Imma do your memory proud old man. Only true parent I ever had. RIP Ricky Bradshaw Jr.
They knocked this song out of the park, great job RLKs! Like so many we all have our Dad's in us that seems to come out in us the older we get like it or not. I turn into my Dad more everyday. On behalf of all the kids that had great Dad's or step Dad's I want to say Thanks we love and miss you. You wasn't just teaching us about life , you was making great memories for us and you knew this as your Dad did for you. ❤ And I do for mine. Thanks Dad's of the world!!
Man, songs like these bring tears to my eyes. Born to Rise, Bullet in My Hand, and this be Redlight King all do.
My old man was who made me who I am. We didn’t always see eye to eye, but he was always the one I looked up to and he’s the role model who always pushed me to be all I could be.
I’m not sure I could ever tell him that, but I hope he knows it.
My son told me, this is what he wants his son to think of him. Because that's how felt about me. I lost my son 4 years ago and I still cry when I hear this song. He was an amazing man and a true dad
I feel the same for my old man, he may have put me through hell, but he did the best he could and I'm ecstatic to still have at my side as of this comment
RIP Pop 5/5/62 - 3/14/22 I’ll always hear this song and think about you. 💐
I lost my dad 2 years ago at the age of 22 and this song was his favorite
My father may he rest in peace had a pair of hard working hands
This band just has a unique sound I can't get enough of
lost my father a year ago on the 31st Aug. this is my song to him! He was an awesome father and led a wonderful life! I'm very proud when someone says you look like your father!! I miss him something awful!!!
Hope you are doing well after your loss!
Where did your dad die from? it's so sad that you missed your father so much
@@suckmyvenom Been years and thank you very much for your kindness!
My dad passed away when I was 21 back in 2010. Was young and stupid didn’t appreciate what was in front of me. Appreciate every day you have with yours pops. There are things till this day I can’t say or take back. This songs make me tear up every time but In a good way. Thank you for making this song.
In memory of my step dad James E. Jeremay 3-8-45 till 5-19-96 you were such an awesome person in my life and I wanna thank you for all the good times we had, love ya dad
And by the way, I'm alot like you
I lost my dad yesterday and this is the song that fits us I love you old ur my hero in alot of way thank you for being everything to me rest in peace dad(old man) ur son Jack Jr
My condolences for your loss
Sorry
my old man is a recovering drug addict and this song paints a perfect picture of my life...
Dalton Croaker you know that you both can do better. just remember that :)
R.I.P. to my Pops and all of those fathers that not only raised a kid right but busted their a** on the daily for the benefit of their family thanklessly, miss you sooo much Pop…Thank You RLK for this song, it means so much to me
Well said brother
Sample & Hold. Great use of a classic NY tune
Today is my dad's birthday. He passed away a year ago and every time I hear this song it reminds me so much of him...
May God be with you and ur family . so sorry that people pass but spirit is still with us to help us through our days
First time I heard this song was a couple years with my old man. Now several years after he’s passed I regularly listen to this.
I lmow the feeling.
My Dad was only 60 when he passed back in the 1980s. When this song came out, it was like he stepped back into time to say hello.
I know the same feeling. Something like this hits you hard and brings you back. My dad was farmer he always had greese on his hands
@@maxhalsted5381 thank you.
@@helenmcmichael2122 I remember when I was a kid he will come in covered in grease and like the song says way he commanded
My dad passed Nov.9 2020, this song is for you. Love you dad
I listen to this when I miss my dad. It reminds he once was truly a good person. He just got lost.
A song like this sure reminds me of just how much I miss my old man. Taken too soon due to cancer. Just glad he was able to teach me as much as he did. Money cant buy what he was able to do. Everyday I try to follow his footsteps and be even half the man he was.

“And the pain that you feel could be the fuel that you used.”
Every day Oldman, Been a little over a year since I lost you, but I’ve been stuffing it down and handling my business like you want me to. I love you pops.

My condolences my brother
this song is awesome,,its really hit home my husband died 10 months ago we raised our grandson he is 14 ,buy hearing this song might make him cope a lil better with his the loss off his grandfather..hes having a hard time time with it. all hits home
His lyrics coupled with Neil Young's chorus of Old Man is simply incredible, both are very experienced people with life and it shows through in this song
Thanks for being there for me and Mom and everyone else we will miss you rip Dad
This song is an AWESOME and very meaningful song. It reminds me of my daddy from head to toe, he use to race motorcycles and he didn't/ don't take shit off of anyone ( I'm a fighter also, I don't think twice before I start throwing punches ) I'm a huge daddy's girl still at the age of 47. PLEASE don't get me wrong I love my momma just like I love my daddy. I told my momma that when it's daddy's time to go that I want this song played at his funeral, IF I'm still around ( I'm battling colon and pancreas cancer ) Even thou I've been married for 14 years, my daddy is my number one man. I can't and don't want to imagine life without him, momma, or my daughter.
Saw you in Wilkes Barre, PA, oldest couple there but we new all the words, you actually let us in the back for meet and greet after the bar closed. Guy friend got a signed drumstick for his grandson and I got 2 signatures on my tiny 54 year old bra, thanx we loved it.
This song makes me think back at my childhood and notice how much I'm like my dad.
Wish my old man was still here 😐😓
I feel you on that brother I lost my father June 18 2016 may he rest in peace
+Dillon Redwine July 8th 2012 I'm 14 btw
dam bro that's a young age just keep your head up and stay strong for him.
+Dillon Redwine ii u too
I feel you brother
Reconnected with my dad after almost 2 years not speaking. We bonded over Neil Young my whole life and when he sent me this it all came full circle. Music heals people.
This song and a little bit of whiskey makes more sense than a lot of therapy
The steel guitar in the original song took it from great to amazing.
It's done it's job well here too.
If you like this song get the album. You won't be disappointed. GREAT all the way through. I have to say when I hear an album this damn good almost two years after it was released. It makes me understand why the music industry is in trouble.
I lost my Dad 3 weeks ago. I hold it together most of the time but sometimes it just hurts to much and I lose it. Dang it I wasn't ready for you to go Dad. Your grand babies weren't ready.
This song made me think of him before but now that he's gone it hits the nail on the head.
Saw Neil Young Jan 28 1973,the day I got out of the service. Great show, tripping my brains out, ha ha The King does justice to this song, 2 thumbs up.
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!
this song hits home real hard , got me thinking . this is by far my favorite song can't believe I'm just hearing about this band also . great music hope they keep it up ,new fan for life
I got a 2006 Ford Powerstroke diesel (my dad loved Fords) and I am still looking for a 71' Mach 1 like he bought fresh out of Vietnam. Sgt Dawson I miss you so much.
This goes out to all those men, women and children who have actually lost their father. I love ya all........
I'm 32. I'm working on making the money for my own house. This song keeps me going.... I talk to my father almost every week. He's a good guy, if a little too polite. I want to make this man proud while he's still alive. I'll never ask anyone for money; ill make my own.
My old man is 63 years old. I'm 20. My real old man passed when I was 3 but the man my mom left for my dad took a step up and raised me. Even when my mom passed when I was 16. He's always helped me. This song reminds me of me and him alot. Appreciate y'alls father's. Or step father's. They do try their best to help. My old man still helps me and he's struggling really bad. Good people do exist. Just very rare
I remember when I first heard
this song. I caught the sampling
of Neil Young's song "Old Man"
in the lyrics. This should be a
dedication to all those Father's
out there.
This was my dad. Miss that old man every damn day. Almost 5 years but it never stops. Thanks for a great song
Love the original, love the cover. I can't get enough of this band.
This is the direction rap music needs to be going in. This is a freakin awesome cover but its kind of an original too. I like it a lot
Check out Adam Calhoun and Tom Macdonald. Look at that obvious brother.
My father was a hardcore alcoholic and didn't know him until I was ten, I played this song for him, at 21, but he never got it.
R.I.P. DAD ❤
Do not ever judge. You havent walked in thier shoes I lost my son, and his little boy lost his daddy, this version and the original have meaning for me. Listen to lyrics. If you need it they may comfort you, in the one individual that needs it.
I've accepted that everyone and everything I know will eventually come to an end but the day I lose my father I may not be able to live with it.
Thank you for the respect.
Not trying to be deep, just speaking my mind. I'm confused though, you attempt to insult me when I've done nothing to offend you. What is your reasoning behind that?
Did that make you feel big? Huh tough guy? How you feel? Like a champ? I bet you do! You can swear and insult people for no reason! You must be so mature!
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.
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.
I'm usually not a fan of these rap remixes with classic rock but GODDAMN this is fucking phenomenal!!
I'm an old man(51), and you done good, son. Thumbs up, and respect, youngster.
this song hits, even years later
I look at my sons and hope I do them justice. Work hard and make things worth every breath. Even as I go for my rare bike rides, they are always on my mind.
My old man put his MC life behind him for me. He risks his life to be my friend. Mama lives by the Bible Daddy lived by the gun. I live by both. Thanks pops. Love you.
This reminds me of my Pops. Been gone 33 years and I think about him every day. One love Norman Steine
My grandfather was my father figure growing up because my real father is a party hard drug addicted biker. But back in the day my grandfather was a greaser who always built and raced cars, we owned a small farm that shut down in 2008. He passed two years ago and taught me almost everything I know, I just hope I can do him proud.
This song is fire. I can not believe I have not heard this before
It pulls at your heart
@@maxhalsted5381 it does
@@chopper1168 a real father son sentiment.
MY SON TURNED ME ON TO YOU GUYS BEFORE HE KILLED HIMSELF THANK GOD CAUSE OF YALL I MAKE THROUG MY DAY THANKS SON
I'm her sorry for your loss, sir.
So sorry for your loss Daron. My heart goes out to you
;(
I'm so sorry for your loss of your child. My condolences, hope you're doing well.
I'm sorry to hear that sir
I was raised by my grandparents. My grandfather was a Korean War, US Marine Veteran......he was most definitely that "old man". We didn't always see eye to eye growing up but when I needed him the most, he would drop everything for me. I lost him in 2005 and laid him to rest on my 29th birthday. Not a day goes by that I don't miss him. Love ya Pops
I just lost my dad. I needed to hear this song. R.I.P DAD 06/04/2019. GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN
