- When I first came across Oliver Anthony and his music, I was blown away to say the least. He had a whole collection of songs that I could listen to for hours. Oliver resides in Farmville, VA with his 3 dogs and a plot of land he plans on turning into a small farm to raise livestock. We have a whole mess of songs set to release of Oliver for your viewing and listening pleasure, he is truly special and notes his biggest influence as Hank Williams Jr. Oliver wants to give hope to the working class and your average hard working young man who may have lost hope in the grind of trying to get by.

When you haven't seen your home in the daylight in more than a month and when you sit in your driveway for an extra ten minutes before you go in to your wife and kids, you think about the things in this song.
Yeah…this comment hits home. That extra 10 min just to process the night, put all your worries aside for a bit, and gather yourself enough to put a smile on your face before the kids see you. I get that, I really do.
God bless you man what a wonderful call the Work to say the truth of what's going on I come from a common country and I poured concrete for now quick we have to fight for freedom to work so hard with so little money and get nowhere
Wow that was a very powerful very true statement. This comment was powerful because if you know, you know exactly what you just said. For so many of us your comment we have done that so many times. Especially the part about seeing your home in the daylight. Mmm powerful
Just know that you deserve better. Everyone does.
Mate you need to learn how to love your wife and kids more. Screw the taxes and payments, keep solid with your family 1st. Rush home brother.
"young men are putting themselves 6 feet in the ground, cuz all this damn country does is keep on kicking them down!" hit like a train....
Keep on puttin one foot in front of the other and carrying the light with you
I pray for peace and strength for you, brother.
Lord it's a damn shame. I feel you brother.
Damn right!
and Biden kills yougmen of Ukraine and russia! With God on his side!
I work 60hrs a week as a diesel mechanic. Come home and run a shop at home. Constantly working so my son has everything I didn’t. Wouldn’t change it for the world though.
I don’t know where you’re at but Columbus Ohio is paying $65 hr
I admire people who can physically handle working that much. Doesnt it get depressing spending that much time at work and much less time with your child and family? Wouldn’t you like to make the same amount of money but work fewer hours and in turn have more time with you child?
I know from personal experience that a parent that works 50+ hours a week does not have the time or energy to spend quality time with their spouse and children. I was raised by a father who worked so much that the only time I saw him was at night just before bed. Children would much rather spend actual time with their parents and go on adventures than have all the toys and trendy materials any day. Gifts and staying up with the trends was nice and all, but I craved actual time with my dad. I cherish the times we went camping and when we didn’t have much far more than any of the material items he would buy me.
Life is too short. Spend time with your loved ones as much as you can. We shouldn’t have to choose between family and work.
@@T1Kat207I work a lot also but when we don’t work that much we feel like we are letting our family down and that gets depressing
@@richieorcasitas1039Balance the two.
I did the same for years. Its called being a provider and a good man.
The best thing about these comments is seeing how connected people are all over the world by this message.
So far I've clocked Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Croatia, the Czech Republic, England, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Kazakhstan, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Norway, Pakistan, Peru, Poland, Russia, Scotland, Serbia, South Africa, Sweden, and Uganda in the comments.
I’m torn on what’s better, the song or reading the comments connecting people from all over the world. Cheers to everyone who feels this song in their heart.
Cheers mate.
❤ Cheers mate
The comments add to the meaning thats for sure
Listen Champ. Even The So called Hood is Slapping this tune. He is saying how I feel
I could not agree more.
The miner / minor line is absolutely legendary.
The lyrics are "look out for 'minors' not just some 'miners' on an island somewhere" not the other way around
*These were the lyrics on Spotify when I looked up the song on there a couple of days ago and now there are none so whoever wrote those on Spotify was incorrect and now I feel like a fool
It's look out for Miners as in Coal Miners
@@LeDuck1999 sorry to say but you’re incorrect. The lyrics are miners and then minors. You can check on the official lyrics.
It’s a reference to the Jeffrey Epstein and elite pedophiles situation.
@LeDuck1999 it's look out for miners (coal miners) not just minors (kids on epsteins island)
@@LeDuck1999ah yes, those islands that are notorious for coal mining
2:30A.M. working nights in the oilfield, listening to Oliver Anthony, hating those rich men north of Richmond.
Who doesnt
You’re working for the rich guys in the song. I feel for ya.
@Slumerican307 I feel ya brother. Keep your head up. But, Love not hate. That's what Oliver Anthony's music is about. You're wasting your time and precious energy and most importantly you heart, hating those Richmond North of Richmond, rather than loving the people they're putting down that Oli is singing about here. ❤️
Oliver, when this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In the Moment” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you ❤️
God bless you!
Very cool, we do get better! We just need a reason to stay better! Much Love
I’m proud of you, and super happy for you too! I’ve been sober 5 months. I can’t believe it gets better but I’m trying to hope.
Congratulations!
❤❤❤
I'm a 52 year old medically retired woman. I was born with a severe spinal defect. I worked 18.5 years after I lost my first leg at 23. I worked until 10 years ago when I lost my other leg and became a spastic paraplegic. I worked so hard. But I never got ahead because of the extraordinary medical expenses I have. This song made me cry for everyone just trying to get by.
I pray God up above will lay his hands on you. That he will give you peace and love that you can see and feel. You are not alone in your suffering, please know this
N the name of Yeshuah, BE HEALED
I’m saddened to hear about your hardships. Praying for and your family 🙏🏻
You my friend should write an article or a book explaining the trials and tribulations you have suffered. 🙏😢
@@nathanstrickland6508AMEN 🙏
42 year old Filipino American here. This one hits hard. I’m a blue collar worker making more money than my parents ever did but found myself looking for a 2nd job just so my family can live comfortably. Most of us don’t have a voice. Thank you so much for saying what we’re all thinking. We have no choice. As much as I’ll hate working all day and night, I love my children way more.
Hello po, if you're needing an opportunity, let's talk and get your family taken care of.
God Bless you and your family. Love from a fellow American.
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true, but it is, oh it is
Ditto. Ditto.
You're a good man
I wish my Grandpa was alive to hear this, he'd love it.
My Uncle and my brother saved me. They had me.
amen to that
This man is how America feels right now
A whole generation feels *
Not only in America brother

Grew up Homeless in Portland, Oregon. Spent 12 years doing my best not to become again. Then I took everything I cared about into a backpack and dufflebag and moved to Ohio. Working in a factory, busting my ass everyday and I'm struggling to eat. This song hit me so hard I had to take a moment.
Hang in there! Life ain’t fair. Life ain’t easy. But we don’t know what tomorrow brings. God sees your struggle and is willing to help if we accept his help.
Hell yeah man, tax the mf rich so we can finally get some real damn change in this country. Worker solidarity 🤙🏻
Even though I'm from Portland, I'm not a Socialist nor a Communist. Nice try though. You damn right life isn't fair. Life's been kicking me in the balls for as long as I can remember. I just do my best everyday.
Thanks for the kind words.
@@l4unchp4dgaming38 I had a weird childhood and joined a cult after I left home and had to burn all my bridges when I realised I had screwed up bad and needed to break with that. But I
Never want to blame God or anyone else. Even though I have been treated like crap by parents growing up. I am poor as a result of those decisions. But I manage to stay happy because I try to be satisfied with food and clothing and just being alive.
Seek God but stay away from cults. And live to see another day.
Good luck to you! I hope everything works out for you.
I’m a 38 year old man with a wife and 4 year old daughter. Did 17 years in the auto factory and quit a year ago to move to New Brunswick Canada to be with my family. I’ve listened to this song 20 times today.
Welcome home, brother.
just went to and came back from new brunswick,its gods country............now im in shithole ontario again,golden triangle that sure as shit aint golden
Those capitalist pigs stole your labor for 17 years. Absolutely disgusting. You should have owned that factory collectively with your workers and shared in the profits. It's time to stand up for workers and take what's ours.
So miserable life! How did Canada accept rubbish like you?
cool story bro
If this song doesnt touch your soul, you need to listen closer..
100 fucking percent. Unless you are one of the top one percent world elite this song should hit you hard
This song and rich men north of Richmond
Or you just don't have a soul
Dieser Mann bringt es auf den Punkt.
Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪✌
I am a 31 year old French Canadian, working a full time job while starting my own company in the forest industry. This song hits me right in the feels. I hope I could start a family.
Same brother I’m 34 and starting a family even making good money right now seems like a far away thing
add me to that boat, the problem is, I have money, i have my own things and I have been hurt by so many women in the past that I am afraid I will never let myself love and be vulnerable again. Its a damn shame
@wyattmckay9363 keep at it. I'm 55 y.o. finally started to make my worth. Unfortunately I had to join a labor union. However.
@@wyattmckay9363 its a damn shame, im your age, veteran, single and broke.basides the money, it feels doubtful to find a women that shares my values and actually wants a family. but we have to keep our heads up! for we will make it, come hell or high water.
We have the Laurentian elites here
I was a truck driver for a seafood company for 29 years worked very hard broke my back and a few hip replacements the song bring tears to my eyes he is speaking for all of us 🙏
God bless you precious Sir. I pray you have no more back trouble or pain. I’m asking Jesus to heal you if you need it.
Truck drivers are the backbone of America but everyone wants to forget about us
Sucks. Healthcare should be free.
Real men / amen
@@shovelwaremerchant It is if you’re too poor to afford it. It’s discounted if you’re not.
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
The most amazing country singer in YEARS!! Real Country... Thankyou so much bro!
💯
Feels like I’ve been in a music desert and this man just gave me a glass of water.
Wack Rhymes, blaming fat people, ok voice? DUDE ARE YOU NEW TO MUSIC?
❤
Defnetly. All these modern music but this. This is true music. Something that modern music severly lack. Sincerity and honest to God song that that speaks from the soul
😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
🎯
You perfectly captured the helplessness felt by millions of hard working Americans whose government has foresaken them and cast them away. AMAZING and moving song because it is based in total truth.
We're feeling it in Canada as well.... God bless the American people and all who desire better times 🇨🇦🇺🇲
Stolen elections have consequences!
Not just Americans, I'm from Australia and the government is fucking us here too.
Amen!
The authentic austere Scriptural God/Jesus only blesses a nation if they actually truly repent and return to Him after they have went astray. Read the Bible correctly.. so you do not become guilty of Matthew 7:1-29 [1-6, 13, 21-23], 13:14-15, 15:7-9, 19:16-19, 24:11, Luke 16:15, Acts 5:29, Revelation 3:15-16, 21:8, 22:15 etc. _[i'm from Canada also and have been an NWO indagator for many years and know full well how insane satanic nightmare bad the agenda is that the top kings/rulers of the earth have planned for us and hence why we must come back to the one and only true God/Jesus to heal our lands etc if it is His will]._ @@WexyFlex
Just listened to an amazing American singer who has managed to produce a song that resonates with ALL the working class worldwide. OLIVER YOU ARE A LEGEND...I'm embarrassed I'm so late to this man's music.
Oliver, When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In the Moment” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better.

Even here in Zimbabwe we hear you man!
Been working from the age of 15 with no respite in sight. Even now at half 2 in the morning I'm at work.
Cannot afford to have a family, my family name dies with me. Cannot bring another soul into this world to suffer unless I can guarantee their life will be better than mine.
Someone finally gave us a voice!
God Bless you brother.
God bless you mate from UK
Bitcoin fixes this .
Time for revolution
Sorry brother. It can always get worse.
I'm a 57 year old man, and this song brought tears to my eyes. I felt this in my soul. This is the story of the world we live in today, and It's a damn shame!!!
I Greed is killin this All
Same. I'm in my 30's
God sent us his son to lead us against the evil and fight the spiritual war humanity was in. 2023 years later, God sent us this man for the same reason. I truly believe Rich men north of Richmond is our battle cry. It is meant to bring us together. To give us strength to fight this war that only their side is fighting. Are you ready? It will take all of us to defeat the devil and his cabal and the committee of 300 who serve them.
Amen brother!!
It brought tears to my eyes too before I could get it under off. What a nerve racking song. That is if you can call it a song. Sounds like it was taken out of a rant at a trump rally
This is a great representation of the real heart of America crying out. Wish it wasn't so accurate, but it hits.
this song makes me glad im alive to hear it
I’m a blue collar worker from Alberta and this song hits hard keep speaking the truth brother
Rich man west of Quebec.
Your country is more gone than ours and I pray for you brother.
@@basedshepherd8858I don’t wanna be defeatist but as a Canadian living in Toronto I think it’s fair to say our country is over. My wife and I plan on leaving in a couple years. The states has some more years left for sure, but I’m afraid their ultimate fate will be the same as ours. Even if it takes 20 years
Can you guys please secede from Canada and join the United States? You would help save us in every Presidential election and we would let you guys have more mining and oil jobs and freedom. Win-Win.
Albertans would make great Americans. Y’all should give Ottawa the finger and make Alberta the 51st State. Join us Brother!
One day, you're a simple country man, and the next day, you're trending all over the US (and the world) because your song resonates with the PEOPLE.
This guys sounds like a socialist!! Let’s all abolish billionaires and anyone making over 100M!!
@@GabGotti3man your dumb 😂😂😂
👍 🇺🇸
@@GabGotti3 He's actually not doing that at all. It's directed to the politicians in Washington DC. They are the rich men north of Richmond he is referring to. He speaks out against taxation, people living off welfare and the like. That is very anti-socialist. You are thinking that the "rich men" he's speaking about are simply businessmen, and while he does speak about low pay, I think that it something that resonates today because your money does not go as far as it did just a few years ago. The companies keep raising their prices, making more money, putting more people into debt, while at the same time aren't raising wages for their employees to keep up with inflation.
That's what country does my friend
Im just listening to this again after a few months, and DAMN does this never get old! Love it!

As a diesel mechanic of 13 years working since 18. This makes me tear up knowing how hard of a world I'm raising my baby into . Hes already 11 and time is flying by
Me too buddy, I don’t think people realize how hard and dangerous the work we do is. I work for a great company and I’m transitioning into management. I don’t think I’ll ever get to a point where I’ll wear a polo and be clean all day but it’s getting there. I see lots of guys killings themselves for peanuts. Without us the world would stop. Hang tough brother.
Not a diesel mechanic but hard-working man who respects other hardworking man, thank you for doing what you do everyday and being the person you are and stop being the next generation of pussies who just want to f****** complain about everything. As somebody who's been working since 16 and I just hit 32 years old I can say it's nice to see fellow people who want to work hard and appreciate when a man speaks the truth.
Im in the same boat. Abused my body for years with blood and sweat daily. I used to be "conservative" or wha5ever u wanna call it...this country fucking sucks and is a joke...the whole world is laughing at us and our ancestors are rolling in their graves. We need to survive...its getting harder...people are getting desperate...and this whole shit show is about to come tumbling down. Stay safe
Amen brother
Hell yes brother! I'm a small business owner in a small hick town. This song says alot of what I feel!!! And you to apparently!!
I'm from Northern Ireland but this hits hard for every day people EVERYWHERE

Only a loser cries a winner finds a way.
If you thin k welfare recipients are the problem you arent too bright and you think just what they want you to. Read a book. Poor Oliver just isn't smart enough to know he is the fool.
Its not often a single person can raise his voice and find millions of folks across the world join the chorus for more than his words.
Very well said!
Nailed it!💯
We saw him in a concert! He is awesome 😊
It’s a prayer. I say it every night.
Crazy thing happened to me today. I was in my car listening to this song for like the 100th time and I pull up to a red light and the guy next to me is also listening to it. It's crazy how this song has connected to everyone
Amen! xxx
I am 24 years old working 3 jobs everyday, yet can't afford to leave my parents household. I call everyday for better jobs, I pray to God for strength, and just when I am about to get ahead the government comes to punish me for being poor.
I am too rich for section 8, yet too poor to get a studio apartment. This country is the best in the world but it hates like no other.
best thing to do is just keep going. It took me 42 years to be able to afford a home of my own. Nothing worth doing is easy. God bless you.
@@nothuman3083yea not the best country 😂😂
Synchronicity, means your personal harmony is in sync with universal harmony.
Here from the UK. I’ve worked homeless and disabled people for 20 years and it’s getting worse and worse. This song struck a chord on so many levels.
This guy is a right-winger. You think right-wingers care about the homeless and disabled? Open a history book. Deluded.
the homeless are farmed, they don't want it to end
@@dr.mantistoboggan4746 Ignorant and untrue.
Iclei eu
Something has got to be done with homelessness and taxes have got to be lowered and leveled out because we are taxed to death and the government don't give a shit if they did they would have already done something about it already screw the DAMN RICH YEP YES SIR OR MAAM.
I remember when this was recommended to me at 5000 views. I didn't share it because I'm anti -social.... I'm Glad it Found Its Audience Anyway.😔😔😔🤗
Greetings from Poland Oliver, I love this song.
This guy perfectly expresses how so many of us feel.
1000%
We should all remember what our forefathers said our forefathers said give me liberty or give me death they also said we are many they are few they also said they can't hang us all
BELIEVE IT BROTHER !@@georgeetter7558
@@georgeetter7558 I re-read this today. And was recently reminded by a Romanian friend of mine who lived in a communist country for the first 24 years of her life. She lost her parents to communism and moved to the US to get away. She said people would regularly disappear never to be heard from again. But it does make me worry - if it can happen there, it can happen here. Hopefully we muster the courage and wisdom to overcome this threat. I believe our nation is at risk of falling apart, just like Soviet Union did in 1989. These are dark days, and hopefully we emerge victorious, but it is far from guaranteed and unless people actually DO something, we will lose.
I (as in we the people) dictate to this government, this government does Not dictate to us.
And that's where the first and second act in chorus... I say whatever to whomever I please so long as I don't yell fire in a library.
No 2nd, and you better watch that mouth.
Sometimes you feel so alone in your exhaustion fears and unpaid bills. Your religion is stomped upon your family is scattered and afraid to speak up about things. You think you’re all alone with your fears and then a song comes out like this that shows you that you’re not alone that millions feel the same way and it gives you hope. Thank you kind sir for this song
I'm a poor Whyte Chriistiian from a small town too ... we are spirit on, cast out, and blamed for everything ... we just want to be left alone and care for our families ... it gets harder every day :(
If this isn’t the truth idk what is. It’s like this for a lot of us in this country
Hi there... Mexican here... This song is for all of us.
💕💜💕💜💕💜
Great comment.
I’m 30 and this hurts the gut of truth and feels amazing that so many people in comments feel the same way as me so no need to speak. Hope it gets better 🫡
This describes every proud country American's feelings towards our society 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I raised 5 kids, single mom with no help. Held 3 jobs sometimes, sold Avon on the side, I worked my a** off to keep a roof and food. I had not medical insurance but made sure they had. I'm 67 and they're all grown and 3 months ago I went into a deep depression. All that work. All that stress. What do I have to show for it? Thank you for this song. It's an outlet for all the anger and stress of so many people all over who are tired of being tired of being tired.Thank you.
I'm 52. Married my childhood sweetheart! We sacrificed for our kids. I worked. She stayed home. We home schooled. She passed away in 2018. So now I am alone, raising our last 3.... Those kids, and a small home, are all I have to show for a damn lifetime of blood sweat and tears. Those kids though??? They are doing BETTER that I was doing at their age! I cried when I first heard this song, but for THEM...not me.
@@brileygabriel4949I married my childhood sweetheart. We worked our way out of the welfare trap. He passed away in October.
I pray that your children remember to help take care of their mother🙏
You're a Star, bright and beautiful. You gave yourself up and all dreams you had to get them kids on a straight path. No amount of praise from gov would suffice to reward you for what you have done for the kids...bless your soul, High up the sky He sees your effort ❤️ bless your soul 💞
"What I have to show for it" - Dear friend - you don't have to show anything to anyone. The only One that saw it from the day one, from the Cross, sees it. He is the only One to sweat and work hard for, not for us. God bless you!
I was born and raised in a small village in China, but the lyrics of this song powerfully resonate with me. My parents are almost into their 80s now, and they have never had good days in their whole lives - they have endured much pain and struggle even unimaginable to me. Nowadays, the so-called 'elite' (whether in the USA or China) is busy developing big and fancy ideas, leaving the working poor stuck in devastation. Politicians always talk about human rights, but in the meanwhile, they deliberately ignore our basic needs: the right to survive. Our meager earnings are even not enough for the rent and the utility bills.
this song resonates with all the people who are sick and tired of how things are so screwed up in our modern world. the people of China will be put through hell again if the fat emperor decided to invade Taiwan.
Are you still in China? I was under the impression that you cannot see things like this on your internet connection. Regardless, after reading through comments it is phenomenal to see this man's music touch every corner of the 🌎.
@-KIMISAFOX it's called a VPN
Great song. Love it
Oliver inspires me.. My parents said if i get 50K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
This song just resonates with every person in this country . Blue collar, white collar ... We are all struggling to stay afloat and find purpose. I listen to this every morning at 430 am after looking at my wife and my kids and asking myself how can I get up and work my ass off for 10-12 hours straight. This song helps me find the strength and will to get up and do it all over again for my family
A working class boy pouring his heart out, alone with his guitar. Doesn't get more real than this.
There's more truth in this 3 minute song than the last 3 years of mainstream media
Amen
over 50 years of drive by media brainwashed by communist worshipping journalism schools.
It's amazing how some people can talk forever and say nothing while this man sings for 3 minutes and it encapsulates an entire generation
Got that shit right brother....
The last 40 years of MSM
This song is perfection… I’m a welder/fabricator and I feel like my body is wearing down faster then it should.. feels like I’m selling my health to keep my head above water. I don’t need to be rich, I just want to be comfortable.. hard to get where I want to be when my own lungs are getting taxed for breathing
Wear proper protection for your job.
@@Shyguy71588 I do, but thank you for your concern 🙏🏼
@DanielKirk-qc2tg spoken like a true uneducated, sn0t n0sed, "video game expert" y0uth who knows NOTHING whatsoever of the mystery of W0RK. Id¡0t.
It’s amazing to me that multi billion dollar conservative think tanks succeeded in making people like you think that the movement they have fabricated is dedicated to helping the working class and not making the rich richer.
Stop complaining. You sound pathetic. Get it together brother. You will not get sympathy. You are not a Victim. Take Responsibility of your Life.
Steel mill millwright of 24 years and this song slams home hard ..slaving away in blood and sweat 84 hrs a week for 7.5 years straight for those absolute treasures at home known as the kids , missing out on so many great moments trying to do the right thing and give them the things you never had , all while the rich men who work 5 days steady shift sleep peacefully... who'd cry if they'd chip a nail..whose main purpose it just wanna wring you beyond dry in bs taxes ..bravo from the oil industry sir ...fantastic song for what goes through the minds of every underappreciated blue collar brother in arms 👏 👏
Tell ya what... this young brother is a breath of fresh air. My new favorite song!
First song in history to debut at #1 without the artist having ever charted before.
Just appeared on Joe Rogan today also cuz of this song. He's definitely got a future a head of him especially if he keeps the soul he has in his music and speaks from the heart and speaks the truth
Lil nas X. Old town country road. #1 for over 16 weeks. Was his 1st song
@@phil1353 did the industry back him to get him there?
That is in no way unique or the first time that happened. Even one hit wonders have done that over and over again.

I work a factory job. Supporting my wife, my child, and sick parents. This song resonates with more people than just me.
Also in a factory stay strong brother keep up the hard work
I took on the school, the years out of work, and the loans to get that big city, high income job. Taxes. I lose half in taxes, and the rest is just chewed up in food, gas, cars, and the kids. Everyone who works for a living is going backwards.
@@markpitchford7375 Should have never become a wage slave. The current form of public education just cucks people into it. Your body is not built to sit or stand in one place all day. Your ancestors were probably more free than you ever where. Think about it. They just contribute to the village farm and just rest during the winter for 3 months.
Just wanted to let you know that I preach for you and your family brother
But only you can change the outcome
You know I'm not a huge fan of country music but man I love this song it really hits home. God bless this man and God bless America.
I understand what you mean. This is real country. Not the overproduced pop they pass off as "country" in the last 20 years. Real country has heart and soul. It's not about the sound, it's all about the meaning behind it.

This is one of the best country songs I've ever heard since Meryle Haggard , Hank Jr. and Johnny Cash. I love old school country the most, but this guy is really good !
Speaking from Ireland, this song is an emotional masterpiece. It genuinely moves me multiple times every single time I play it. You speak for the majority of the 🌎 Fuck the rich men north of Richmond.
The area this singer comes from is one of the last great strongholds of Scots-Irish (Ulster) immigration into the US. It was a place nobody else wanted to live because of the poor soil and rugged mountainous terrain. It ended up being a coal mining area, and since coal has gone out of fashion, the people here are really struggling. It means a lot to us over here whose ancestors were driven out of Ireland and Scotland to read your comments. :)
@@LadyIarConnacht We have a blood debt to those same ancestors to stand together in these moments. Because Ireland is a tax haven in Europe, a lot of your companies are headquartered here too. To say they've influenced out society and government is an understatement. We've lost most of our manufacturing and are completely reliant on other countries for everything. Ireland understand the plight of rural America and stands with you. We won't forget out American brothers and sisters, if you do the same for us! ❤
We gotta stop voting for socialists ☹
Economics certainly needs to be revamped... start with plundering those who side with thieves, murderers and destroyers. Then put the resulting infusion of cash into the hands of those who know how to (and are willing to) make countries prosper.
Preach on brother. We need all the voices from everywhere and anywhere. Eat the rich.
39 years old. Spent 12 1/2 years as a plumber until the small company I worked for went under as the pandemic began. Working for a big chain home store for the last 3 years getting beaten into the ground, treated like a disposable asset, and watching my earnings equal less and less as the prices of basic necessities goes up. Ive fought addiction and won. Ive found love and lost it. This song resonates on a level that I havent felt in a long time. Thank you and god bless. 🙏
Keep pushing homie and come out clean on the other side. You got this
You didn't see this shit coming? How much gold and Bitcoin did you buy in 2016? It wasn't that hard to foresee.
register an LLC and start plumbing again. the are only a few ways to maintain your wealth and working for a big chain is not one of them.

Usually I don't really comment on RUclips videos but for this one I'm more than willing to make an exception. This is just brilliant whether you like the genre or not. It hits hard and is so pure and real. Music with a soul for sure. We need more people on planet earth like you. Wishing you the best.
Im a Honduran American who's been here all 40 years of my life. I have two jobs. I work as a cook, then i go to UPS to load boxes. I barely see my 2 boys and I hate that more than anything . This song had me tearing up. We are the true disenfranchised.
May your efforts and deeds not go unnoticed. May it get easier, with you also still being able to provide.
You are a great father and your boys are very lucky to have you.
At the beginning of last year, it was estimated that 10 billionaire men possessed six times as much wealth as the poorest three billion people on Earth. In the United States, the richest 10 percent of households own more than 70 percent of the country’s assets.
@@blogleftbankerwow. And by now it's probably 5 men with 12 times the poorest 4 billion.
This was my hubby 25 years ago, down to UPS and cooking. He became a firefighter and we still struggle some, but can live on one income with old cars and used clothes.
I'm working overnights, my husband works days. Making the most we've ever made in our lives. Still struggling, still living pay check to pay check just to feed the kids, pay the bills, and forget child care. Nothing is getting better around us. This song rings in my soul.
May the lord bless you and your family.
Same with my wife and I. Glad our son started school this year. Bills will go down a bit, start saving again. Eat better and catch up on some bills. It's hectic 🤦🏾♂️
Also still trying to adjust back to civilian life after a year deployment. GOD got us though. We will continue to push and make sure we live a good life.
I work nights and my wife works days, we say the same, and that if it were just 4 years ago we’d be making enough to live like kings! As I’m on the way home to catch her before she leaves at 6am for two minutes I just wish I could work day and spend more time with her and my kids.
I hope things get better for you. Just remember you are doing what's right and best for your children. God Bless you
Amazing song brother. You've touched touch the heart of America love the song man
Im 24 and this song brings me to tears never thought I'd be here
Hello dear friend💖💖 Everyone who reads this, we don't know each other and probably never will but I wish you all the best in life and all the luck in the world

Brother, the feeling is mutual. God bless.

How antisemitic..... 😂
Right on 👍🏼
to me it's like a country Rise Against song.
Can't be more truer . I bloody cried 😢what a musician xxxxxx❤❤❤❤❤
Good Lord. The tears are flowing and the hairs are on end!
Dont feel poorly your not the only one.
“Young men are putting themselves 6 feet in the ground, because all this damn country does is just keep kicking them down” that one hit hard
How an alcoholic or drug addict shifts the blame for their situation to things beyond their control.
@@brianlongmire2217i assume youre democrat.... how are all the democrat run cities doing???.... actually Oliver is neither democrat or republican, and the song isnt tied to a political party.... its an athem because NO political party is helping ANYone
This song hit's right in the feels. The "man" let my uncle down 😢. I miss him so much 😔. He was a very talented songwriter, singer, and guitarist like Oliver. He could have made it. My cousin did! And he made it out the Southland spreading the gospel. You might recognize the band. He was the guitarist in P.O.D, Marcos Curiel 😎. If i could find the videos of him and my tio Danny Salazar playing together I'd upload to my channel in a HEARTBEAT! Such a talented man, may god bless his soul 🕊. Here's the last song he co-wrote 😢 ruclips.net/video/f05N7e5bOuU/видео.htmlfeature=shared please listen and pray for our dear friend Louie's family and health 👏🏽

With probably 30 million more views on his reaction videos, which are all positive. Awesome
Oh yes !
Let's Gooo keep it going folks!!!!
Amen
I’m sure it’s getting throttled too. Once the Left found out what it did.
Disco baby here. I can remember winters in southwestern Montana with huge bonfires and a couple feet of snow. My parents would throw party's and my Dad would set up bose speakers on the back deck. There would literally be 50 people in our backyard dancing. I can close my eyes and see my parents dancing to this song. Such amazing chdhood memories ❤️
My volume doesn't go loud enough for this song! I can only say Damn brothers keep on going!
God bless Oliver Anthony I’m a father of 6 and happily married to my wife, I own a construction business and it’s going under, Oliver’s lyrics and voice is perfect I can’t get enough of this song
God bless you and your business may he turn things around 🙏🙏
I am also a father of 6 with a failing business. Hang in there you are not alone out there.
May God bless you with everything you need to revive your business and to be more successful than you've ever been. In Jesus name. Amen
Hang in there brother… God Bless
I hope your business finds a solution to overcome
I’m a young blue collar guy and this song describes a lot of how I feel. I’m a wildfire fighter, we regularly work 100+ hour weeks, and it’s still a struggle to provide for my family. Glad to hear someone talking about this in an honest heartfelt way!
Thank you for what you do to keep the rest of us safe! I’m sure you don’t hear it enough but your life is very important and appreciated! May God bless and protect you!
Thank you for being there and your life at risk for us....can't Thank you enough..keep pushing forward "In the New World"...per Anthony Oliver. Prayers for you and family.
I totally get it. I worked with 1000 hrs a week and I can’t afford my family if 32 kids. Seriously it’s your own fault you wanted it all and can’t afford it. Don’t have kids. Don’t buy a house. Live like most of us do. Renting and childless.
God bless you and your brethren out there protecting families. We appreciate you. ❤
Keep working for the government, complaining about pay, and thinking your protecting everyone. You are who the song is about. I'll protect myself thank you.
don't stop playing man that was the most trust ive heard in 30 years
What a wonderful voice. And the lyrics are so true. Keep singing. God Bless
Ill put it this way.
There's a very good reason why this song has been trending for the past 2 weeks straight. We the working American public have had enough of whats going on in our country.
Not just America bro, its the same everywhere
It speaks to me 😢
@@Scyllah 💯 it’s a world problem.
Governments are one big team fucking us over

Greed only knows one color...the color of money
Speak truth brother. Stay up guy. 🤙
@@robertmccusker4480This is it right here. The rich divide having us all fight each other so no one watches them steal the world - a world that COULD be good for everyone, if it weren't for the greedy parasites.
@@steventipton954 AMEN!
Im just silently crying over here, this is what the world is right now and he sees it. He's not afraid to tell the truth, I think that's why this became so viral, he's one of us working people. He and his audience can relate to the harsh reality of today. So powerfully done!
I've heard this song like 10 times, I don't know why but it makes me cry every time. It's not that I listen to it 10 times in a row, I just keep coming back to it whenever I hear something wrong. Insane how touching it is LOL
42, wife, 2 kids, working since 96’, blue collar through and through.
This song gives voice to the quietly desperate, a synthesis of our blood sweat and tears, it’s a composition of our dirty hands, depleted accounts and the disconnect of the overlords.
Wow. Your comment is that of a master. Seriously, this is the most eloquent comment I have read. Very well said, my friend
40, wife , 2 kids , working since 98, blue collar also and your comment sums up perfectly how i feel and have felt my entire working life
Well said
You had 42 wives?
We're not much different than the feudal serfs of the 12th century. That's how they want it and view us.
I’m a center pivot irrigation service tech. 112 hours a day working in corn ten feet tall and 100 + degree heat in Kansas. Struggling constantly with 3 kids. This song really hit home. Amen brother!!!
My dad farms in Kansas. Thanks for all you do. Without people like you, it would’ve been much harder for my dad to put food on the table for us. I know it’s hot out there but I’m truly grateful for all the people like you.
That's a lot of hours in a day😮🎉😂
Thank you for your hard work.

thanks for what you do for us brother. your family must appreciate your hard work.
I'm surprised a song like this is trending. It gives me hope.
Sing it loud and proud brother!!!! For the whole world to hear 👂🏻 LISTEN UP
As a welder and a veteran of the Iraq war , I love watching this song keep gaining millions of views !!! And it will keep growing god willing :)
Thank you for your service sir.
Thank you for your service.
I'm Iraqi, and despite what the US government did to my country, brave men like you did end Saddam's socialist nightmare, things are exactly good in Iraq, but the nightmare is merely a feverish dream now, so I too thank you for your service.
Wherever you go most common people just want to put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads, and are generally good people, we're all the same.
brother , I keep the Iraqi children in my eyes and heart everyday , cause I think what if someone invaded my country !!! God bless the Iraqi people
@@HQ4575 Assuming you're actually Iraqi, Saddam was not a socialist. And he was our (US) guy when he slaughtered the entire left wing of his party. It wasn't until he started selling oil in currencies other than US dollars that he became evil here. US corporate interests who own the US govt concocted an entirely fake story to justify stealing your country's resources. You should be ashamed if you are actually an Iraqi.
I’m a commercial tire retreader , 3 kids and a wife & just had to file for Foodstamps because it’s hard to make ends meet . This song brought me to tears hearing someone speak on my life . Much respect for this 🫶🏽 this hit millions of us
Going to buy any fudge rounds with your food stamps?
Love you, brother ❤❤❤
I feel your pain this is all by design. I've battled with mental illness all my life. People like me don't get good jobs. My American dream is to work and come home to my house and have something good to eat. But now I can only have what I can afford not what I would like to eat. It's funny that the illegals come and get free everything and never paid a dime in Taxes. Keep trying my friend please don't give up
This guy literally calls out welfare. In his eyes you're part of the "problem". He wants to see welfare diminish. He doesn't understand you have to be in a pretty tight situation to even be considered for welfare, and even then it's questionable. This guy is literally a rich spoiled white kid bitching about first world problems. Don't buy into this crap. I hope you have a great day, and I hope things turn around for you.
I'm with you brother. 2 daughters and a wife, single income, and I'm a carpenter. 35 years ago, our parents could make it work, but now, it's week to week with foodshare. We just want to hold to our convictions and serve the Lord with our lives, but it seems to be nearly impossible these days
Just saw him in concert, you gotta see this man perform live! He is taking names and kicking arse.
This song is so powerful that it almost made me hate a job that I love, I guess I'm blessed right now but this song still speaks to the last 15 years of my life
I’m a working class Aussie bloke and this man’s words of truth needs to be shared across globe
I won’t lie I’ve been struggling with so much shit as of late it’s just a blessing to hear this
You truly are speaking for an entire generation of men can’t thank you enough brother

We are the majority, brother.
Canadians can relate, stay strong my commonwealth brother! 💪
There's more truth in this song than a thousand hours of legacy media.
The "Truth" of the song is "Taxes bad. People Poor."
Tax Rich people. Their power is money. take away their power.
What part would you consider truth? Life can be hard for sure but it doesn't have to be.
Victimhood 101
His Voice is amazing no bullshit. Hope he made a fortune from this song. ❤
This song says it all. Thank you, Mr. Anthony!
33 construction worker from Tennessee. I've herd this song more this week than any other from different crews. We stand behind this message
Amen, time for workers to stand up and unionize. The rich have walked on us and distributed wealth from our pockets for too long. Time to take our country back like our grandparents did, staring down the barrel of corporate guns. Standardizing the 40 hour work week and livable wages. We need to fight again!
He didn’t even name the Jew. Good tune, but semi-based at best. You have to say their name
Tennessean here too. Hang in there brotha

Seen that wild and wonderful whites doc and buddy went to West Virginia for school… don’t know which one. I’d say hope things get better or at least ya get out! God bless
I think this song brought a lot of people to tears who know that this isn’t our way, and this isn’t how humans should treat eachother or be treated. Song epitomizes “we are all equal” when it brings that deep emotion out of numerous people

Exact same here brother
