Would love to hear him do the remake of the song " Seed Of Memory " By ...Terry Reid
Also 3 DOOR'S DOWN - "WHEN I'M GONE "
This is a cover and you guys never gave credit
Ook koi kip I 8 iui
Sorry
One of the many times I went to see Shinedown, I took my dad with me. My dad's a pretty stoic man and he was his usual stone-faced self for most of the concert. My old man is a big Lynyrd Skynyrd fan though and I knew the second they started playing this song he would get into it. Lo and behold, as soon as Shinedown began to play this song my dad got a huge smile on his face and put his cell phone flashlight on and waved it side-to-side like everyone else was doing. He proceeded to enjoy the hell out of the rest of the concert both after this song and retroactively before it. Since my dad was so stoic most of the time when I was growing up I rarely saw him genuinely smile. So having him smile because a band I love covered a song by a band he loves is a memory I will cherish forever.
Damn, that's a wholesome story man, thanks for sharing :)
I know what you mean I took my Dad to one of my kiss concerts when still in makeup he was a real trooper to I miss you Daddy
Awesome bro
That's an awesome story. I love it. It's always a memory to cherish when one or both of your parents can really get into music you like. Something you shared together. My Mother took me to my first concert when I was about 9 yrs old. Not a lot of people can say that they went to a concert with one of their parents. 💘 your story. Thanks for sharing!
awesome !!!
2024 who's here
🖐️
Me 3:07
I'm here, bro!
Eu sigo a escutar I keep listening
Through the 20s, 30s and if I'm still alive through the 40s 😅
My father never danced a day in his life. Not even with my mother. I worried in secret what would happen on my wedding day when the father daughter dance was expected by the guest. My rock, my best friend, my life teacher showed up at my door one day and say "ok little girl here's the deal. I pick the song but you gotta teach me how to dance bc I don't know how." He was the stiffest, uncoordinated, and most beautiful dance I've ever had in all my life and I can't wait to dance with him again in the heavens! Love you dad❤
Poetry.
They’ve awarded Pultizers to worse than that.
Beautiful ❤
My baby boy sent me this song one morning. He’s trying to find himself he’s going through things but listening to this I think he is on the right path. Son I believe in you. You can do it by the grace of God. Do it for yourself
I've got one in that stage. Haven't heard from him in 2.5 years 😢
❤
I wish you the best of luck to you and your son
wrong path! Put him onto Van Halens Hot for Teacher! This is depressing crap!
Best wishes some of us it takes longer to find a path on life but don't give up because a man will only have one mother in this life.
This guy's fucking voice!!! You feel that shit in your goddamn spine!!
right!
right
Dude, that is the power of his voice, and he just dominates that song! I felt my stage father Benjamin King talking to me like he is singing
I broke my back... spinal.
the best voice i've heared in years 👌👌👌👌
I lost my mother today and this is the song she had me play and sing to her.. It means so much to me. I love you mom and I'll see you in heaven
jon yocum I’m so sorry for your loss.
There will be another good soul in heaven
Sorry for your loss! I lost my mom 2 years ago, this song brings me peace every time I play it
God bless sorry to hear that keep ur head up she raised u for life and to be the best u can
Saying "I'll see you in heaven" is surely arrogant and kind of nullifies the whole point of going to heaven. Plus, for all I know your mother could've been a terrible person, regardless if you say otherwise.
There is no where to hide as a vocalist in this one. He absolutely killed it!!! Bigtime talent for real
Amen to that! ❤🙏🎤
My Daddy caught me putting in a concert in my room when I was 17 thinking no one was home. This was the song I was belting when he started listening. He started recording me in his old flip phone voice recorder. Of course I was mortified when I realized he’d been listening to me and was beyond embarrassed when I found out he recorded me. He said he’d heard their cover and liked it, but when he heard his daughter belting it out it ran a chill down his spine. He had a buddy that played guitar and they would make me sing this every time they caught me together. Daddy passed in 2019 and it broke my heart clear in two. He gave me an awesome taste in music (obviously 😂) and we had such a bond over it. He always told me he was proud of me but when he heard me sing, it was indescribable for him how proud he was. I didn’t do it much in front of people but would for him. My husband and kids tell me they like the way I sing, but I believe they’re humoring me lol. I’m not saying this to fish for compliments or too my own horn by any means as I feel more like I’m caterwauling these days 🤣🤣🤣. Every time I hear their cover of Simple Man I think about my Daddy and smile. That makes this song worth more than its weight in gold to me and will always hold a special place in my heart! 💕
Obviously your Daddy loved you very much!
Thank you for sharing your story! I am sorry for the loss of your Dad and pray that you find comfort in the sweet memories! I grew up on the original from LS (one of my Daddy's all time favorites). When Shinedown first released this, Daddy heard this version as a short ring tone on my Nokia cellphone (that's been a minute... lol) He asked me to let him hear the whole song of their version. He started crying and said that it felt like when he heard LS for the first time. He was super young when he lost his Mom at 21 (his Dad at 17), so that song was one of the only times I would see him tear up. Not long after Daddy heard this version, I lost him. He was 52 and I was 22. I will be 43 at the end of the month and no matter how many times I hear either version, it chokes me up. Every time I have heard them do this live ... water works! I know if he was still with us, he would be going to SD shows with me and my husband. Ahhh how I wished! 😁
I taught myself to play this song specifically for my mother, she lost me for a couple of years to drugs and the city and it broke her heart, all she ever wanted for me was to be happy and healthy, so once I got sober I dedicated this song to her, and to this day it brings her to tears when I play it for her. I love my mom. You only get one.
Hope everything turns out well for ya'll~~God Bless~~
@@vikkibrown2023 as well as it can be, she'll be home from NC in a couple weeks, and my sobriety has paid off with a clean 10 months of peace. Thank you for the blessings.
@@athangundling655 You are so very welcome and I will continue to pray for ya'll~~
fair play man, it's not easy I know first hand, much respect to you 🤝👏. your mother must be an amazing mother for her to be such a powerful inspiration for you, don't ever lose that feeling and keep paving your way forward in life to make her even more proud of you than she already is 👍✌️
@@logsburn955 thank you big dog, she is a very solid inspiration and reason to keep myself on track. She's a big reason I am the man I am today. If it wasn't for her I would have nobody to turn to. I'm glad I woke up when I did while she's still here to be proud of me. Thank y'all for the support and blessings. 🤙✌️
I don't understand why this version gets hate. I heard someone comment once that Ronnie VanZant would be spinning in his grave if he he heard this version. I just don't get that. This version is an absolute tribute to the original. I think it's great and think it conveys the message and spirit of the original perfectly.
Both are great.
William Wright I actually think this version is better than the original
*DONT THROW HATE AT ME*
@@gaydolfhitqueer835 your right
@Robert McGuire Ronnie's voice was PERFECT for the style of music he sang which was Southern Rock. I'd guess you aren't from the South tho by that comment...
William Wright I feel ya. No disrespect to any other past artist whose done this song but I think this is the best version
I lost my husband on july 30th. My grandson, age 17, played his guitar to this song to honor his grandgather. A moment I will never forget.
I love the guitar to ml
Cherish that memory forever!!!❤❤❤
Awesome. Touched
Jesus Christ I cry EVERY TIME
This song helped me while I was getting sober and getting my family back. I listened everyday for months. I am now 2 years sober have my family a house a car an amazing woman and God.
Fuck yeah
GG
Peace brother!
Good for you! Stay on the path brother
Awesome
Not a fan when newer bands try to remake a classic. But shinedown is an exception. Absolutely killed it! Such a talent!
There's a handful of songs out there that I feel no longer "belong" to the original artist
Amen
It’s different from the original, and yet just about as good as the original. It’s a copy that, at the same time, stands alone as if it were an original song..
@@ericmullen14exactly like I feel bad wolfs zombie is better than the original band’s version
@3:05 You'll see a little girl holding her grandfathers picture, That's Jasins daughter and Ronnie Van Zants granddaughter. I feel it's paying homage, instead of "remaking" .
2024. On repeat
Shinedown thank you for Speaking out for Mental Health awareness. This song goes out to my Son who died at 24 from Suicide. I wish he would have talked to me. But he never said a word about his struggle.😢
God bless him sir. So sorry for you're loss.
Sorry for your loss.😢
Sorry for your loss brother. This song resonates with me every time I hear it. I may not know much but I do know your son is looking down on you and you can still live the rest of your days with this message at hand. I too used to struggle with depression and attempted suicide multiple times. I know that sounds silly but when someone is at the end of their ropes they are battling with living or dieing. Once you make it through you realize how precious life really is. I can’t imagine your hurt but I CAN imagine your hope. Live for him brother and I promise you will see him again. God bless my dude. I’ll drink a beer in his honor.
I'm sorry Alice for your loss.😢 I can't imagine the pain. I pray you find peace someday 🕊️💜🕊️
Remind me of mu brother who committed suicide at 30 years old
I havent seen my mother in more than 10 years. We have our differences, separated by oceans and years of no communication. This song has always seemed very personal to me, like a book on how to live. Listened to it today, and decided to sit down and write my mom a letter. Hopefully it reaches her. In todays crazy world, everyone needs to get back to the basics. Be a simple man.
God Bless You 🙏 I pray she reaches back in a positive way. I’m dancing to this song with my son at his wedding. If you see her again, dance with her to this song 😘♥️♥️♥️
I have been to hell and back several times with myself in my life.
So when I hold by niece:
I sing to her to be a simple kind of sweet niece. Something she loves and understands.
I mean it from the bottom of my heart.
I hope you and your mom got closer. Life is too short. Let's live, let's love.
Call your f**king mother....put your pride away and reach the fuck out to her...just to say hey, or check in. You only get one mother and when shes gone you will hate yourself. Be a man and do the right thing...CALL YOUR FKING MOM!!!
❤️❤️
Don't see anyone commenting about the little girl holding the portrait of Ronnie Van Zant. Awesome tribute.
The little girl is Ronnie's granddaughter.
Never noticed it. Thanks. Awesome!!
@@MG-si8fw wow!!
Long Iive RVZ!!
You did god bless
I never really had a father to give me any kind words or words to live by….it’s hard to be your own man sometimes. I need this song . Thank you Shinedown. Thank you, Lynyrd Skynyrd.
I was homeless, doing substances and very suicidal but this amazing song helped me get through it all and got me to where I am today.
Running a kitchen, have a partner and having a much better view of life everyday.
Such a masterpiece.
Keep the good work, man! 👍👍👍
You got it all! ❤❤❤
So glad you are still here with us ♥️
Proud of u buddy
The original was great, but shinedown killed it. Love this version. That man can sing
I love this version Shinedown doesn't get the credit they deserve
Yes this!!
I love the original but I love this one more now 🥰
Totally agree
Awesome cover, definite tribute to Ronnie & crew
I think this version has way more power and emotion behind it.
I'm a old die hard lynard skynard fan but this guy truly did the song justice an amazing voice
you no it bro
Sounds exactly like his albums, live. Shine down and three days grace are awesome in concert seen then several times
You ain't kidding. I have a buddy who covered this song and to me he done pretty damn good. With a studio I think he'd be great! Please give him a listen, like and share. I think he has potential. Thanks in advance.. ruclips.net/video/onPLDV06rA0/видео.html
This is the one remake that I think might sound better than the original
Still requires a II in the front seat.
Every time I listen to this, tears, tears of joy, languidness. I think, "pure soul". Grew up in Appalachia. Had the standard "hard knocks" Appalachian upbringing. I was born in FL, raised in VA, and live in WV currently. This is one of those songs which tells a story that many a young man lives. It really hits "all the feels" as is said in trendy pop culture. My grandfather and uncle were both army infantry. Both fought in wars that never ought to have been. Both came home and were Simple Men, working in a poultry hatchery for thirty to forty years each. Left huge shoes to fill my Pap, did. Uncle is still a Simple Man for now. He, too, will leave huge shoes. So, yeah this song "gets me" and as I think, is pure soul. I love Skynard's original but damn, Shinedown blew it the fuck away, in a very good way. :) :D
Lost my mom 😢on April 2nd. “Don’t forget that’s there’s a someone up above” I think my mom would wish for me to be a simple kind of woman. Love this and shine down absolutely kills it. 💯
I lost my father Friday it hurts so bad.
Wishing you peace and love ❤️🔥
@jamesmcdonald9415 Wishing you peace my friend 🙏
Sorry for your loss, I hope you may power through and continue knowing that she will always be with you 🙏🏻
Make your mom proud, she's got a whole crew up there to brag to.
As a 38 year old man. There's something about the emotions behind this song. This rendition in particular is amazing. I cry. Like not just a little wet eyes but cry every time. In a good way
You're not alone.. something happened this year that makes this song hit me different.
I can agree
Real men cry brother
This song floored me just the same
Makes me think of my dad. song makes me choke up every time
Sure it's been said many times, but I think even Skynyrd would say... "wow, that's the best version of our track we ever heard!"
The original is 10x better in my opinion
ok
I agree …. some of those notes are just unattainable to most male singers, who try this song !
Darlene, I'm a trained singer AND a woman, and some of the notes are a struggle for me!
defotnes cover tops this one by far. Chino's voice is like christ
This should be every mother's song to their son
Or father to son I mean it’s all we want as parents . Is for them to be a kind and simple man . To live slow and not to fast . I want my boy to be happy And not unsatisfied. I want him to have a time of his life but not fuck it up . I just want him to be a SIMPLE MAN
Im 5 years sober and sometimes i feel as if i might lose myself again and this song is what calms the storm ❤
Congrats brother. Keep fighting the good fight
Hang on. You can do it, but it's up to you. Turn to God when you are weak. Admitting you need a hand is the first step to success. Praying for you. 🙏🏻
Hope you never give up on your sobriety. When you fall off that damn wagon, just forgive yourself for the setback and get your arse back on up there. Remember, even though you might not feel it- you are loved by some people even though you may not realize it. Also, good, modern and badass sexy women love us a real SIMPLE man. This means we accept them with their flaws as they have accepted ours. 🍒✌🏼😎
@andrewbrummitt ⬆️⬆️⬆️
Junkie
2020. Still the greatest cover song ever recorded. Keep it up boys
Damn straight damn fine young man
Damn right brother. It is
I love this cover! Just like I love disturbs : Sou d of silence cover!
Johnny Cash's 'hurt' cover is up there too
Totally agree way you, da words in da way its sung Brillant song! Bro keep it up n going great tune ,x 2020 x
Don't get me wrong I love Lynyrd Skynyrd but this remake by Shinedown actually brings a tear to my eyes because I can hear him putting his soul in it and it makes me feel the song even more. Dude sung the shit out of this song honestly lol
And it's hard for music to bring a tears to my eyes
Dude you said it this is absolutely unbelievable!! The power and soul is unsurpassed
Music is like the only thing thatll make me tear up.
I hear ya~~Have a nice day~~
Meh.
Even now in December 2023 Brent's vocals continue to blow my mind! Such an awesome rendition of Simple Man!!!
I came here to write this?! Sp0.oky co.0l!
Freaking inspiring even after the 100th time hearing it!
They did a respectful cover of this song
the rasp in his voice bring this song to a whole other level!!!!
Nah man this ain't better than lynyrd skynyrds version
Basic Hits it's damn close
Trevor Gary is is damn close. Thought the same.
its better
@@clorauxbleach6239f
My Son just told me that this version of the song is what we will be dancing ( Mother and Son dance) to at his 2022 Wedding. I can't wait.
Brought a tear to my eye
Lame
❤️❤️❤️ Amazing! Wish you and your son all the love!
Woah, marrying your son
Jk
Cool
My Goodness. His voice is absolutely amazing. Everything about his voice brings tears to me
I wish more people would live by the lyrics of this song, we'd all be better off.
techguy I agree
So true
My first son..after two girls..is being born this spring! I've dedicated this to him years before I even knew he would come to exsitance. I got You! 😊😉
This is a tough song for me for reasons but yeah
Word
The vocals on this song literally give me chills. I'm usually more about the music than the lyrics, but this dud's just amazing.
It gives me chills too
I can relate to that but i have been listening for 9 yrs😅
My oldest son and I song at his wedding 😁
Bruh, listen to simple man by lynard skynard and then youll get more than chills
I'm more for lyrics cuz I want to start singing 😂
Reacher last episode got me banging this Banger !!!!!!
That's why I'm here, again 😁
Sept 2023, Heres to all the simple men that dont know they are appreciated and loved. The world has enough complicated people in it.... be a simple man, woman and keep your head on straight.
Skynyrd would shake your hand and say thank you for keeping it alive
97 Explorer Brent knows their family members he lived with them that's how he got the permission to do it
My opinion it better then oringal
agree
The Deftones version is way better lmao
After listening to The Deftones' version I think it's the worst one. Nothing beats Brent's vocal.
I danced to this version by Shinedown with my only son on his wedding day. Needless to say, I cry happy tears every time I hear it. They are phenomenal. My son & daughter-in-law will celebrate their 10-year anniversary this month.
Me too!
that's nice that you went to your son's wedding I'm sure he loved that
My son chose this song for the mother son dance at his wedding yesterday. It was a moment I will always cherish! Now I cry every time I hear it. Happy tears! Can’t wait to see them in the fall.
@@stacyebert4529 congratulations. My son and his wife went to see Shinedown in concert last Sunday…they had so much fun and said the band was fantastic!
@@kimberpas2907 thank you! They are so good, We have seen them a few times.
I love this song. My son is getting married on 9/16 and this is the song we are using for the mother son dance. Thank you for sharing your bright light in the world. My daughter and I are coming to the KC show tonight sooo excited 😊❤️
I am to wed on the 16th as well. Congratulations!
CONGRATULATIONS
Where did they go on Honeymoon? Does it involve a beach or mountain or maybe both(if you are in Europe). Just wondering where to go when I get married
Be something you love and understand...
Lynyrd Skynyrd would be proud. Great Job! :)
totally agree, this is a really good cover that stays true to the original
very good
honestly I think they did a better job
***** I agree.
+Nick Groves I have to agree...Brent Smith has the absolute perfect voice for this song. And I am glad that they didn't try to do more with it than was necessary. This is one of the best covers of any song I've heard on youtube. And I'm not even a fan of this band!!!
The heart he puts into his voice for this song is so awesome. Shinedown will be legends for ever.
CANT GET ENPOUGH
é bonito de maize
I've listened to Shinedown on and off since I was in high school, and I never listened to this song before until now. This gave me the chills because Brent's voice is so powerful. You can actually hear the emotion in his voice and I really love it.
This was definitely an awesome cover.
If you want to see a real in close person take on this song take a look at the video "Shinedown in My house"
It's just the guitarist and Brent in a living room with some people around drinking beer, insane.
ruclips.net/video/Q_yBTIkwXoA/видео.htmlsi=ILKnGfaTqkY5EcoG
Sounds better on two wheels through the mountains by yourself!
I grew up with Lynyrd Skynyrd and though I still prefer their version these guys did it Justice
THIS SONG IS MEDICINE .
all music.... ;)
Especially high with good friends and good fire
@@john-fw6ze Totally Agree 👍
The kind of medicine that has everyone overdosing, LoL. Check my Friend out ruclips.net/video/onPLDV06rA0/видео.html he covered this song and pretty good too. Give him a like and share the video. Let's give him a shot😉
Cap's bro ham.
I'm in my 60s and have been a Lynyrd Skynyrd fan since they made their first record. This rendition of Simple Man is like! WOW!
Finally someone my age remembers Skynyrd. Wow what a cancel culture, all Republicans are Evil culture. Nancy is Lady Natas. Vodka Soaked House speaker..... Husband Flaming Homosexual!!!!
agree
better than og
@@jamie42172 wtf did you just say
@@cloudnurdz6331better than og...
This is my favorite version of simple man. Shinedown turned a rock and roll song into a southern blue gospel rock R&B song🎵. He ripped this song🎵 apart with his emotions😭😫. He poured out his heart♥️ into this song. He sung😫 his lungs out on this song. You can feel the southern gospel blue in his voice😫. He has a strong powerful anointed voice😫. 😫😫😫😘😘😍😍♥️♥️😢😢😭😭♥️♥️😫😫😍😍😘😘😫😫♥️♥️
I passed out. And this song woke me up. Shinedown nailed it! Going to bed now good night thank you
He wretches every note from his soul. Hauntingly beautiful.
I like the lyrics.
@@brandonlebeau5306
Ronnie Van Zant was a prolific lyricist.
Well said
De Patterson--I thought I was the only one who ever described a song as being 'Hauntingly beautiful'. I am glad to see you use that phrase as well. The first song I ever referred to as Hauntingly Beautiful was Since i've Been loving You--led zeppelin..They were the first words that came to mind.. You are so very right about this one!
This is my favorite version
this song is proof of the power of music. This song just hits your soul on a deeper level than most.
YES IT DOES
Mr. 0PT1C just like the song watching you
Mr. 0PT1C y'all I swear to God my cover is pretty damn good! Show some love ..maybe ruclips.net/video/dXrS47oOGfo/видео.html
damn straight!!!!
Ronnie Van Zant was an amazing song writer..
anyone 2024?
Right here!!!
Don't get me wrong. I still love Lynyrd Skynyrd's song both Ronnie and Johnny. This cover is just so emotional.
Dad I miss you so much!
January 1947 - March 2015
Rest in Peace!!!
I haven’t heard anyone mention this yet, but Jasin Todd, the guitarist for Shinedown, is married to Melody VanZant, the daughter of Ronnie. Shinedown is also from Jacksonville, where Skynyrd is from. Shinedown pretty much had direct permission from the VanZants to do this song, lol.
Never knew that. Thanks for your share. I love this version
Karl Nodland I live a few blocks away from Ronnie’s widow and Ronnie’s daughter. You wouldn’t know they were VanZants because of how humble and cool they are, except for all the awesome memorabilia scattered around the house.
Thats so cool
little Melody tagged along . those were the best days now there gone . Brickyard road is great !
Isn't the guitarist rocking van zantz hat?
Always makes me think of momma
I remember this from my dad listening to it with me. I sometimes feel I don't have much direction. He passed when I was young, I've had to constantly fight. Sometimes I wonder if he'd be proud of me, or disgusted by my actions and mistakes through my trials. It's hard to remind yourself. I remember though, somebody told me, if I make a 1% change every day on what I wanted to change before, after 100 days I will have changed 100%
whos still listening to this in 2016,2017 and so on
Today is a Shinedown day for me. Working and watching videos can be productive.
No one since the Original is 100 times better

My son passed n simple man was our song u can't understand the emotions I have when I hear u sing it. FREAKING a life saver LITERALLY. Thank u so much. Come to Jersey so I can cry on your time. LOL
I'm so very sorry for the loss of your son. No parent should ever have to suffer through that kind of agony. Few people understand what you're going through. It's the most agonizing grief their is when a parent out lives their child.
You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Bless you and all who cared for him.
🙏✝️🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss prayers 🙏 to you and your family!!!!
We also lost a son when he was only 2 days old. I am so sorry for your lose. Hold your memories close.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Man this song was my daddy's favorite song I grew up hearing this at many parties as a child and later in life dedicated it to my boy, it says all the things a momma wants for her son
Wow, this brought tears. Beautiful.
His voice is unbelievable
I played this for my son at his wake 2 months ago..age 28...RIP Zeb! I LOVE YOU ❤
I am very sorry for your loss.
As a mother of four, only one son, I can’t imagine your pain. I hope that you can remember that children love their parents as much as we love them and would never want us to live a life of agony or regret as much as we wouldn’t want them to. Peace to you and your family.
I'm so sorry for your loss, there's always light to guide you in even the darkest of time. Something I know all too well
So sorry to hear that
I lost my two older brothers.. reminds me of them .. missing them emensley. Rip
2024 still listening. Favorite band for 20 years nearly
His voices is so amazing and it feels like its his song
Anyone else listening in 2019?
Shadow Cree no
Shadow Cree absolutely
Absolutely
Da
sometimes I sing along with it two or three times until my voice burns out the song is so f****** moving
This song will put you to tears.
For my late Father... I'm tryin dad! I'm still tryin....
Im a 17 year old fan of shinedown i love this song
My mother/son wedding dance!!! THIS version.
This song is curing my depression each and every time i listen to it. I love it
10 years ago my son was born. This song came on while she was in labor. Shinedown/Simple Man is one of his favorite songs. We always love listening to this song together.
They play cover on the radio idiot so rude
You can dance with him to this song st his wedding for the Mother/Son dance.
They do play covers on the radio in Missouri thank you five finger death punch do a ton of covers
Absolutely give me shivers.... Very VERY well done!!!!
Shinedown has given me strength that I didn’t even know I had. Their music and their messages reach down deep into my soul. I love you all. Thank you so much for giving us all your artistic viewpoints.

My mom passed away last year and she absolutely loved Shinedown. So glad she gave me her taste of music. I know she’s with me and guiding me thru getting over my drug addiction the last couple months. RIP Mom I love you.
I wish you the best as well brother you can do whatever you put your mind to ❤️
Your mom sounds like an awesome lady with awesome taste in music. I’m glad she’s guiding you through man, you can do it. I’ve got 14 years sober - it’s hard but if I can do it, anyone can. Sending you love and strength from a stranger.
God Bless you Joe. I'm a mom and this version is my song to my son. I love Shinedown and he knows this song is from me to him. I'm sure this is your mom's song to you too. God bless.
good luck on that recovery! all the best

Our son loves Shinedowns version of ""Simple Man." You think this would be ok for a son/mom wedding dance song.
A great country vibe
1:17 the way he sings that two words "up above" always give me goosebumps
My favorite part ❤️
They played this at my best friend's memorial at the high school baseball field, brings back so many memories. RIP TC
well that is great fuckin taste in music. May he rest with the gods of rock.
sorry for your loss... rip

Fantastic remake
You'll killed it
He is one of the best singers I've seen
when I was a kid growing up without my mother around, when I did see her, she taught me to be this way without actually saying these words. just though her spirit and making trees from seeds. god I wish my father didn't ban her from me and make me resent him my whole life. being smart and over observing can really hurt u in the real world. don't u worry, ul find urself, follow ur heart, and nothing else.
Tommy Guglielmo very beautifully put homie, find your peace!
Mike Narvaez thanks man

HIS VOICE 😍
Man cannot miss a note...
just be a simple man
I gave my son the lyrics on a canvas to this for Christmas. My advice to him in life, our song. I got to see LS sing this back in the day. This song is so special to me and I hope will be to him long after I'm gone.
takes me back to better time in this world
Tammy Turner ya it kinda does I know I'm young but me and my dad used to listen to this music and me and him created a bond that I haven't created with anyone else
BAD ASS REMAKE OF A BAD ASS BAND OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!! YOU FIND A WOMAN AND YOU WILL FIND LOVE AND DON'T FORGET THERE IS SOMEONE ABOVE!!!!!

😊 yes
And Be A Simple……… Kind of Man!!!!!!!! ❤. Be something!!! You Love and Understand!!! ❤
This song hits different when you're a single mom of a boy. 😢
I agree!!
In a world full of hate it's good to take time out with some Shinedown. I hope my son grows up to be a simple man.
Shinedown does justice with there music
He will if you teach him how.
Daniel T especially with all the new music and rock we don’t have many good sounding songs any more
Amen!
sitting here on the verge of tears, full of emotion due to this song & the comments, how it makes people feel...couldnt agree more.
Tears come easy if you are human🤫
Our son just got married this weekend. And it was this very song that my wife requested be played for the mother son dance. I had nothing but tears and a big lump in my throat the whole entire time. 🥺 Thank you so much Shinedown for doing this! Because of that mother-son dance at our sons wedding…this version of this very song will forever hold a very special place in my heart! ❤️
I can’t be the only one trying to forget this new world by listening to my childhood songs
Boy, this comment makes me feel old.
Definitely not alone on that one brother
Your NOT alone Mason !!!
This
Not alone. This cover was one of my childhood songs because my dad always played it in the car. Definitely not alone; this new world sucks and I'd give anything to go back but continue to age.
My dad's very close cousin passed away on May 1, 2018. This was his favorite song, and because my dad was a singer, they asked him to sing it at his rosary. On May 4, my dad got up and sang through his grief. He sat down, fist bumped my aunt, and slumped over. My beautiful, wonderful dad had a heart attack and passed away in front of most of his family, including his own mom, aunt, my mom, and my sister. I was not there because I had strep throat, but I am thankful that my kids did not have to watch their grandpa die.
You can actually look up Simple Man cover Alfred Contreras and see him sing. He had the heart attack within minutes of the performance, and was pronounced dead less than an hour later. This song absolutely devastates me, it will be 3 years next week and I can barely stand to listen to it.
damn that's rough I feel your pain and I'm sorry for your loss
@@exploringwithadam297 thank you so much
Damn that is terrible. That hurt my heart. Im so sorry. He had a GREAT voice. I enjoyed it. Rip
I'm sorry for your pain.
Your dad was feeling pretty great when he was taken, but the grief and the extra emotion [anxiety,etc from performing] from the singing was too much for the heart... Honesty, I cannot think of a better way to go, surrounded by friends and family and just sang your heart out. I can understand how hard that would have been for those present, going thru that... He is just sleeping, and you will see him again make your dad proud do as he taught you and use your head and morals -GB
Its 2023 and still get chills from this song
One of the Best covers of Any Song by Any Band EVER....you feel his voice take your soul removing any thoughts of "I hate covers" as they are never heard from again because THIS COVER is an Absolute, Extraordinary, Brilliant Case of Pure Perfection😍😎
