    LEAVING THIS COMMENT ON THIS MASTERPIECE OF A SONG SO THAT EVERYTIME ONE OF YALL LIKES IT, I WILL BE NOTIFIED AND REMINDED TO COME BACK AND LISTEN TO IT ONE MORE TIME

    From the time that this song came out all the way to Now in 2024, I have listened to this song through the ups and downs of life. Through the worst of the storms and the brightest of the sun, this song really speaks a true message about life and all of its beauty. Struggle is beauty, there is beauty in the struggle and that is exactly what this song is talking about through times of sheer hardship. Blood sweat, tears and more pain than I can ever imagine, this song helped me get through all of that, Ryan Upchurch is one of the most meaningful music artist of all time and he makes classic masterpieces day in and day out. I wish Ryan Upchurch could see how much of an impact his music has on the community around him long live the south.

    The records grow from Hank Williams Jr, to Upchurch. Country music just grows, that's his roots and the seed of his ideas? Fertilized with ambition(rose petals). Watering can may be symbolic, tears? Like blood sweat and tears? I'm not sure if 3:00 has a meaning, I'm thinking it definitely does. Planting the pocket watch, idk, upchurch himself growing with time? He's already said the lamp lights are all the ideas he's coming up with, the car is him comfortable with the road he's on.
    This all said, one thing that's very eerie, the shot with him looking out the side mirror, looks exactly like Elvis when he was very young, before his mother died. Very eerie, very cool. Awesome job

    • @Jojohallstacey
      @Jojohallstacey 7 лет назад +7

      The records are Eminem's album Relapse, Johnny Cash's At San Quentin, and Hank Jr's Five-O. I'm assuming that the records he is burying are the seeds to his music which he pulls up because Eminem, Cash and Hank are an extreme influence on his career. The pocket watch he buries after digging up the records are him wanting to "Go back in time sometimes and sit in silence doin nothin." I guess he's saying if he could go back and time and live for the moment as well as do it all again, he would.

    • @rebelmustang8096
      @rebelmustang8096 7 лет назад +3

      I commented right before bed after a long day, I DID see the Cash but didn't recognize the Eminem, thanks for clearing it up! Upchurch explained everything on his Facebook, if anyone cares to take a peek at that. I dearly hope I'm not reading too much into anything or offending him. However I'm still curious about the significance of 3:00?

    My mother had this Mercury Cougar and I remember going out in winter time with her and drifting it a little on back roads. She had that car for most of my life. At a young age I named it white lightning and listening to this song took me back to that car after hearing white lightning. Thank you brother this song is just outstanding!! Just like all of your other songs they’re fantastic and your a fantastic artist man!!!

    • @DailyDrivenProjects
      @DailyDrivenProjects Год назад +1

      This is the comment I needed to see because I'm still mourning the death of my white 2005 suburban I named White Lightning after this song because of all the hard work I went thru to own a cool piece of not just automotive history but also my childhood given that my dad still drives the one we grew up in. And in my truck I've fallen in love with my future wife, and made so many memories with some really great friends. And of course when it came to working hard like myself, there wasn't much that White Lightning couldn't do, and somehow that gave me the same confidence about myself that I've lacked all my life. So yeah it really really hurt to have to total it. He will be missed, but there are others out there to live out his legacy so I guess I'm still Chasing White Lightning ⚡

    ryan will probably never see this but im gunna put it out there...back in the early 2000's me and my 2 partners had a rap group..all underground and self made ..we travelled all throughout the midwest from state to state doing shows. built a fan base and even ended up on the cover of "go magazine" and rockford register star newspaper headlines. i was so hungry for the music. i did the recording , the mixing, the mastering ...i was all in..then life hit hard in the recession..i dropped off to take care of my kids because the music life can really take a toll on your home life ...its almost a decade later...been 8 years since i wrote or even thought about doing music...after finding upchurch i realized that tho the lane i was in at the time was still true to me... i, like him appriciate so many genres of music. and it has given me a new outlook on myself and my music and what it could be. i wont seek the stardom or any kind of local fame again , but his music has given me the push to get back in the lab and just do me....for me, because i love to make music.....wether i make a country track , a hip hop track, a rock tune...doesnt matter...he has paved the way and opened up my mind to just get back into it because music is a major part of me. and to just do whatever i feel like doing. so just here to say thank you to ryan upchurch for being real, being true , and showing people like me you dont have to create your lane in one form. you can just do you no matter the genre and be happy that your blessed enough to do it. thanks brother.

You always bring some new angle...ever changing...is the things and places you go the inspection?

    Some people go for gold, then lose sight of their shine
    And the sparkle that once was, gets tarnished in mind
    They forget what they was after they fell off the track
    And their vision that was vivid gets lost in pitch black
    Age starts to take place like a bomb that keeps tickin'
    And they regret not chasing after it after they had the ambition
    The ambition fades away like the red on a rose
    And the regret sucks the life from everybody I suppose
    But my rose ain't red, it won't die but ain't fake
    But when I die, I'll drown myself in these lyrics I speak
    White. Lightnin'. Real Church. -Thank you for Sharing.
