We really appreciate that Billy!!! Thank you so much for showing us love, it really means a lot!! We pray we can hit 100K by the end of the year, that will be our New Years gift...
I know it man. He certainly belongs in the hall of fame. But hell look how long it took them to put Rush in. I don't know who makes the choices over there. But they don't seem to listen to the same rock we do .
According to Wikipedia Amos Milburn recorded it in 1953 and topped the charts with it. I've never heard it. john Lee Hooker recorded it in 1966 and that is my favorite. I don't really like this Thorogood version.
Amos Milburn never got the recognition he truly deserved. Wynonie Harris too. Check out the Milburn song, 'Chicken Shack'. Yeah this is a cover, but a respectful one. It was all about the artist's respect for his hero, John Lee Hooker- the blues King of Boogie. 😉
H&J, this is George's combination of two John Lee Hooker songs, "House Rent Boogie" and "One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer". George added alot of words to each song, and there ya go! You'll love his "Who Do You Love", "Bad To The Bone" and "Move It On Over"
Nothing about a blunt in this song. gettin' high back in the day also referred to good alcohol. Drunk, High, it's all the same when you feeling Good and Melo
Been watching several of your reaction videos this evening. Thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you. That isn't my reason for commenting, though. It's for this: I'm a marriage therapist of 25 years and just wanted to say how much I'm enjoying the relationship you two have with each other. Besides the entertainment value of your vids, it's good for people to see what a great relationship looks like :-). So, my compliments to you. Cheers!
50K and 60K coming right up I'm sure! George Thorogood is underrated IMO. I LOVED that guy and his band (The Delaware Destroyers) when I was in high school. This brought back some memories. Good ones. If you know what I mean. ;-) SOME of those memories aren't too ... clear, but the kind of memories that bring ... yep ... Good Vibes! Keep it up!
Definitely back in the day. Best tenants I ever had (huge old property) were two. The deal was cash, materials or labor. $25 a week. One worked at the local brick works and bought materials every week. The other did the installation and repairs. I would never have been able to restore that old place without them. This song was playing back then and we all loved it. Good weekend times on the porch or in the yard. Thanks for the memories.
When he is saying "Im gonna get high,Im gonna get loose" he is not talking about smoking a J, though he could, it is an old school term that means getting drunk. In my day people would say I'm gonna get stoned or high that just means drunk .
Seeing/hearing him play this live back in the late 80's and getting to touch his snakeskin suit during that "scratch my back baby" was a moment this gal will never forget....the whole place was singing along loud enough to shake the roof and yeah...."you know when you're mouth is getting dry" ;)
You got it Larry. Old school liquor/bar talk. Gettin' high references were about drinking ... the alcohol-high. Having a "dry mouth", expressed quenching the thirst with more.
Yes a classic bar song. In my bands top 5 requested over the last 30yrs. I heard you bring up afro man song I partied with him for a whole month one night in hattiesburg mississippi he was wildman.. had a blast. You too having too much fun. Enjoyed the visit. You too brighten my day.
This is one of those songs where you almost have to be drinking while listening to it. And if you are drinking and the song comes on, you tend to drink even faster and/or more!
I used to DJ a club back in the 90's... we'd play this at midnight when they put shots on sale for 10 minutes... I'd go do a line and smoke a joint. I was the DJ... I always had shots lined up for me by customer requests...
Love how George tells these simple stories with his slide guitar response to everything about all of us can relate to at one time or another in one way or another. It was fun watching the two of you react to this as well.
ok this song was made famous by the Legendary Blues Man John Lee Hooker, that's why he says "I took my John Lee Hooker record collection and out the door I went" John Lee Hooker's grooves have been used in modern day rock a lot, ZZ Top's song "LaGrange" is totally lifted from John Lee's song "Boogie Chillin". This song is why I got into the blues. I heard that name, looked it up at the record store and I've been hooked ever since. Good Work Guys.
I greatly enjoyed your reaction to this! I love Lonesome George!!! Anything you listen of his you will have a great time just like this. Hope to watch more very soon!
Eddie and The Cruisers( John McCaffrey and Beaver Brown Band) On The Dark Side. Think you two would definitely like. Great movie and music. Should check it out.
I know this video is about a year old, but it’s vaulted to one of my favorite video reactions by anyone of all time. You two have had way too much fun with this one! (admittedly it’s hard NOT to have fun listening to George Thorogood!)
Congratulations on your subscriber success. Your attitude shines thru. Love your stuff. In his later material, Thorogood took on a Sax player of EXCELLENT caliber and the resulting Saxophone solos only served to take a great thing and make it even better. If you like great bluesy Saxophone as I do, check out some great Sax playing in Thorogood's song BLUE HIGHWAY., one of my favorites both musically and thematically. Thorogood is a library of great bluesy swampy stuff.
This is two songs by the great John Lee Hooker "Rent House Blues" and One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer". George put them together and made it really great
*Guitarist ELVIN BISHOP graduated from Tulsa's Will Rogers High School in 1959 (along with my wife, who played piano-keyboard for several area bands in '60s-70s). IN SAME GRADUATING CLASS WAS DAVID GATES (1960's group 'Bread'), LEON RUSSELL, AND SHARON HANDLEY (Philharmonic Organist and Piano). ANITA BRYANT (Miss America) was from Will Roger's class of 1958......* BTW, ELVIN BISHOP HAS A BS IN PHYSICS FROM UNIV OF CHICAGO, he's a smart guitar player. My wife Sharon and Sharon Handley earned BA in music from Univ of Tulsa.
Hope you have a wonderful birthday. I met my wife on a blind date October 14th 1972, had 46 years of happiness with her, until she past in 2018. Really enjoy your reactions, thank you.
Love this song i just wish you got to see the live version of this..i think it was at The Capitol Theatre..you missed out on so much watching George live...maybe a redo?💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
I am laughing so hard right now because you're about to hear one of the best songs ever I love you guys Happy New Years God bless you guys good luck with this song it's hilarious
This ist always a fun song. :-) Yes, as other's have said ya should check out "I'm Drink Alone" und "Bad to the Bone" as well. Have a fun day und stay safe in your Haus from COVID if ya can. Auf Wiedersehen von Wiesbaden...smiles
Man, first off, y'all are a super charismatic couple and seem super fucking cool. Thank you for this one. I knew the reference from this song from the Eric Church song "Record Year" that y'all also watched. Then, funny enough, Bill Burr also references this song on his podcast when he talks about an older white lady who messed up the lyric (said something like "one whiskey, one shot, one beer)...I had never heard this song before, and really enjoyed it, and you all's commentary (especially the "because i got high" shout out). Thank you, great content as usual!
This is actually a cover of two songs, both by John Lee Hooker. The first is House Rent Boogie the second is One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer. That's why he's singing about not seeing his baby throughout the second part of the song. He's not upset over the rent because that was actually a different song.
This version is actually a medley of two songs. The first section, before he goes to the bar, is "House Rent Boogie" by John Lee Hooker. The actual "One Bourbon..." song is everything after the singer goes to the bar. John Lee Hooker also did a version of "One Bourbon..." although the original, with a switched order (One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer) was written by Rudy Toombs and recorded by Amos Milburn in 1953. George Thorogood is an interesting guy. He, like many players, learned to play by copying songs from records. Unlike a lot of players, he instinctively understood not only what the songs should sound like, but the styles of the players. John Lee Hooker, for instance is far different in style from Howlin' Wolf, who's different from Buddy Guy. The thing that makes Thorogood so unique, especially in his early albums, is that when he does a cover, it sounds a *lot* like the original because he understands that player's style. It's still a George Thorogood cover and is unmistakably his, but it feels like it could be of the era of the original.
I like y'all's videos. This song is actually two songs put together. Rent House Blues and One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Beer. Both old blues songs by the incredible John Lee Hooker
That intro is dope!!!
Cheers to ya!! Congrats on the 40k only going up!!!! 🔥🔥🔥 going be at 100k before the year over Mark it!
Yo Billy , great to see you supporting these guys, they are awesome !!
We really appreciate that Billy!!! Thank you so much for showing us love, it really means a lot!! We pray we can hit 100K by the end of the year, that will be our New Years gift...
ruclips.net/video/c3o8-bcfFvE/видео.html This is an older and original version by John Lee Hooker if you'd like to take a listen.
Y’all drinking Sky Blue?! Haven’t seen one of those in 15-20 years but bottles look the same. Congrats on the weekend plans 😂🕺🏻
@@HalfAndJai Dont even worry about it! Ima push you the same way i plug all my other favorite channels. You both deserve it!
"Everybody funny. Now you funny too"
Always loved that line, and I use it quite often in life!
centuryrox I do too! Great line.
Me and you both. With a finger pointing for emphasis
That and "but I'm tired" says g it the same way George does, of course
I use it ALL THE FREAKIN TIME!!! Too funny you do, too! Too funny? Now you funny too!
Yup good line my fav along with lawd she was lovey dovey and now you funny too lol
Its a travesty he's not in the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame
Still ? Oh my God! WTF?
Oh my God yes! He needs to be in there.
I know it man. He certainly belongs in the hall of fame. But hell look how long it took them to put Rush in. I don't know who makes the choices over there. But they don't seem to listen to the same rock we do .
Neither is Iron Maiden, Ozzy solo, Slayer, Megadeth, Judd Priest. It’s a sham organization.
@@thebeachlovers3383 Tommy James, Squeeze, and the and the Guess Who and the list goes on....
Check out "George Thorogood- I Drink Alone and Bad To The Bone"
Yes!!!
I need your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle!
If ya don't start drinking I am gonna leave
I drink alone by George is a great one as well,
Didn't he do bad to the bone also
My favorite!
The live version, cause the pet turkey added in is my favorite
cbogolo yes he did
get a haircut and get a real job lol
This song is a monster and especially George’s guitar playing. I never get tired of hearing it. Enjoyed your reaction very much.
Spotify tells me that I’ve played it 250ish times last year. Top listened song for three years straight
He means getting drunk when he says "high."
Thank you, John. Yep
It bothered me to no end lol
Yeah no he doesn't.
Let them interpret it the way they see fit. Besides I never heard anyone say they’re high and I associated that with being drunk.
They also used to refer to being drunk as being stoned
This was originally recorded by John Lee Hooker, but George made it his own 👌
The original hook was not even written by him because John Lee adapted it from other versions.
According to Wikipedia Amos Milburn recorded it in 1953 and topped the charts with it. I've never heard it. john Lee Hooker recorded it in 1966 and that is my favorite. I don't really like this Thorogood version.
Amos Milburn never got the recognition he truly deserved. Wynonie Harris too. Check out the Milburn song, 'Chicken Shack'.
Yeah this is a cover, but a respectful one. It was all about the artist's respect for his hero, John Lee Hooker- the blues King of Boogie. 😉
I always thought this was john lee hooker...I'll have to check out the true original
It was two songs. House rent blues and One bourbon one scotch and one beer. Saw him at the Fox Theater in Atlanta. Killer show
H&J, this is George's combination of two John Lee Hooker songs, "House Rent Boogie" and "One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer". George added alot of words to each song, and there ya go! You'll love his "Who Do You Love", "Bad To The Bone" and "Move It On Over"
Toby Keith and Scotty Emerick:
I'll never smoke weed with Willie again.
You took the words right out of my mouth. They'll love that one.
great song!
Awesome song..!!
Snoop Dogg also said Willie Nelson is the only person who can out smoke him.
Great song lmao
Sorry to disappoint but the old timers called being drunk.. high lol but I agree add the blunt haha
True
Shit about 3 or 4 of those Platinum you 2 have & he'd be good.
Stoned meant drunk also. As in, "Stone drunk". It has come to mean an altered state brought about by any substance.
This is so not true and I don't know why people keep telling you this
🤣🤣
Nothing about a blunt in this song. gettin' high back in the day also referred to good alcohol. Drunk, High, it's all the same when you feeling Good and Melo
They also used the term "stoned" to mean drunk as well.

This was my father-daughter dance song at her wedding, lol!
George is the Man, so badass. Love his music
Nothing better than old rock n roll blues 💙
Lol! You two are great! 57 yr old white boy from Oregon. It's all about the love of music and humor. It's sustains life!
It wasn’t a house party in Canada until two songs were played .... This one , and “Wasn’t That a Party” by a group called the Irish Rovers.
As well as Steve Miller and David Wilcox
All great music. The Irish Rovers and of course, David Wilcox. I can't choose just one lol. Riverboat Fantasy is definitely a good one though.
Getting high was a drinking term back in the day
Back then getting "high" was the same as getting drunk.
Back when this song was new I was getting high and people been smoking weed for a hundred years!
50K and 60K coming right up I'm sure!
George Thorogood is underrated IMO. I LOVED that guy and his band (The Delaware Destroyers) when I was in high school. This brought back some memories. Good ones. If you know what I mean. ;-) SOME of those memories aren't too ... clear, but the kind of memories that bring ... yep ... Good Vibes! Keep it up!
‘ Bad to the Bone ‘ - unquestionably his best song
"I don't know, man. She's kind of funny"
"I said I know. Everybody funny! Now you funny too!"
Now you have to hear "I Drink Alone" by Thorogood A.K.A. Lonesome George!!
Definitely back in the day.
Best tenants I ever had (huge old property) were two. The deal was cash, materials or labor. $25 a week. One worked at the local brick works and bought materials every week. The other did the installation and repairs.
I would never have been able to restore that old place without them.

Sorry but no weed in the song. Getting high on booze. Even the old country singers talked about getting 'stoned' on booze. Fun reaction and on to 60k
YES! Thank you 😊
True but I still have this image in my mind of him going outside and lighting one up before returning to the bar haha
You got it Larry. Old school liquor/bar talk. Gettin' high references were about drinking ... the alcohol-high. Having a "dry mouth", expressed quenching the thirst with more.
@@chaost4544 fair enough lol
Unless your talking Hank Jr.
Yes a classic bar song. In my bands top 5 requested over the last 30yrs. I heard you bring up afro man song I partied with him for a whole month one night in hattiesburg mississippi he was wildman.. had a blast. You too having too much fun. Enjoyed the visit. You too brighten my day.

This is actually 2 John Lee Hooker songs. The first half is "House Rent Blues."
Love how George tells these simple stories with his slide guitar response to everything about all of us can relate to at one time or another in one way or another.
It was fun watching the two of you react to this as well.
What a great blues song
Round about 11:20, when Thorogood sings "Scratch my back baby," that guitar riff is called Chicken Pickin. It's a classic blues riff.
Toby Keith "Ill never smoke weed with Willie again"
ok this song was made famous by the Legendary Blues Man John Lee Hooker, that's why he says "I took my John Lee Hooker record collection and out the door I went" John Lee Hooker's grooves have been used in modern day rock a lot, ZZ Top's song "LaGrange" is totally lifted from John Lee's song "Boogie Chillin". This song is why I got into the blues. I heard that name, looked it up at the record store and I've been hooked ever since. Good Work Guys.
Thorogood was really fun and great live, saw him in 1990.
He's got a great one called 'if you don't start drinking, I'm gonna leave' I think you'll get a kick out of it.
I greatly enjoyed your reaction to this! I love Lonesome George!!!
Anything you listen of his you will have a great time just like this.
Hope to watch more very soon!
This song was originally done by the blues artist John Lee Hooker. You should check out that version too!
Wow. I didn't know or forgot that it's a cover.
Nick Jackson
I never knew this wasn't the original song.. 🤘🤘
I saw George Thorogood in Madison Square Garden back in the 90's. It was a badass show!
Oh my gosh. Her intro on her bicycle was adorable.
Greetings from Arizona, USA
Oh hell yeah !!
THAT was Awesome !

Best wishes and better days.

No, there are no illicit drugs in George's loving tribute to the greatest bluesman ever: John Lee MF'n Hooker.
You both are beautiful. 💚💚💚💚 sending positive vibes your way💚
Seen him in concert in Riverside Casino in Riverside Iowa about 2 years ago, great concert
Jai is to lit. Lmao I love her.
Ah man, you guys should have listened to his live version. His facial expression and delivery are great.
He was higher than a kite!! Lol ✌🏼

High is an old term before smoke.
George puts the term “faded” to shame with this song! 🍻
First off I love that song. Guitar playing is amazing. But you two are are a blast to watch and listen too!
One of my favorite songs! Thanks guys!
I always come away smiling watching you two.

That was a fun song. Thanks for that!
Man, first off, y'all are a super charismatic couple and seem super fucking cool. Thank you for this one.

Thorogood’s ‘Bad to the Bone’ is a Classic that will get stuck in your head!
STRAIGHT UP ROCK BLUES CLASSIC. MUCH RESPECT FOR THIS ONE GUYS
Back in 1980 i seen Gorge in a little bar in Delaware where he ripped the roof off this place one of the best show I have seen
I clicked like for you hitting 40k. By the time I'm watching this in early December, you're pushing 80k. Good job‼️
I met him... did sound for him... I used to do sound at all sorts of clubs. He would go on stage with a bottle...
OMG, you are bring back these classics yes yes
Awesome jam, seen live awesome concert 👍😎🤘🎸🎸🎤🔥🔥🔥
You two crack me up!!! I love y'all!!
Glad to be back with good company
"LOVE your reaction to GEORGE THOROGOOD!!"
Ya>ll are great and very entertaning much love from a blind man
And smoke a fatty (with cottonmouth and the munchies) lol. George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers! George kills it on the slide guitar.
Back then, we had "cotton mouth", because of alcohol, not weed.
Y’all made me so happy with your reaction. Cheers!
You need agua
George thorogood & the destroyers: One way ticket live is hella fire...
Good times, you guys are completely awesome, best of luck with your channel!
The first place I ever heard this song was by John Lee Hooker. I think the album was titled Pots on Gas on High.
That Platinum goes down like water but will f you up.
This song is a ton of fun. Love it.
This is an old favorite of mine. I made me happy to see y'all enjoy it so much.
