Horsesht. One brand believes men with penises should shower with your daughters in high school. One brand believes you have no 2A rights. One brand wants to tell you what fuel you have to use to heat your stove or drive you car. Some R's are actually D's, but no D's are actually R's. Wise up.
Resonator guitar, often referred to as a Dobro, but it's a Gretch. Two weeks ago Oliver was in the woods unknown singing out to the world, then this, 29M views in 12 days. The lyrics touch us because we know it's truth. The resonator guitar touches us because it harkens back to a simpler time. His voice touches us because it has passion and a cry in his powerful voice that we feel in our hearts. He is touching the heart of the world wherever an incompetent corrupt conflict/division creating governments and greedy corporations lie, cheat, abuse and steal from the people. That's everywhere today. Lord, it's a damn shame.
He said more in 3 minutes and has done more to unite the world than all of the corrupt global politicians in the last 60 years. Pray this message lives.
Maybe if More people exited the Globe Lies they tell and teach , they'd be able to gain Freedom --- Truth is where Freedom lives 🙌 Earth is Flat and enclosed with a Firmament. Global problems for Global Lies.
Dustin, you’re not alone. That message resonates, not just here, but around the globe. The whole world is feeling it. Maybe that’s the reason the song has tens of millions of hits in less than three weeks.
5:09 I’m not going to lie I was worried about you taking a sip during that verse. It’s not fun getting choked up with bourbon. I look forward to everyone’s reaction at that part. I am liking everyone that covers this song and I’ve watched over 100 reactions. It’s amazing to see. God helped Oliver spread this message we all needed. It’s giving me hope for humanity. Politicians and msm have divided us. We are the 99% and we all bleed red. God bless y’all from Kentucky.
Yes!! 🇺🇸💸🙌🏼 I live on an Indiana farm surrounded by popcorn and soybean fields. I’m a country music fan, always have been, but I’ll listen to anything if it grabs my attention. This isn’t a country song though- it’s a song for our country. I’ve never heard something so meaningful, anything so powerful or anyone pour their heart and soul out like this man has. This video is an actual blue collar worker who shows his real, raw emotions and he’s fed up. He’s done with the bullshit that we all see but no one has the balls to say. I’ve dealt with my fair share of depression/anxiety and other issues so I can completely relate to his emotional suffering. Turning down an initial $8M in offers from record labels, he just wants to convey his message- he is spittin facts and this… THIS is “woke” talk, an actual great awakening. He opens his small town performances (went from singing in front of 20 people to literally thousands) with verses from the Bible and everyone is listening. He’s the exact light that this dark world needs and it holds a glimmer of hope. I pray that this changes us in a positive way and helps us ALL come together as one. The man has such an amazing voice, such a damn powerful 3 minutes. Preach it brother. ❤️🩹🤝🏻
We can fight the corrupt greedy sociopaths when we know their embezzling scam and their lies! I say my mission is to tell people EVERY DAY so we expose the reality behind their curtain of lies. Here is the MINIMUM we need to know in order to end the reign of corrupt sociopathic money ADDICTS who have been embezzling government money for decades, who are totally derelict in their duty and unfit to govern: Remember Henry Ford said that there would be "revolution before tomorrow morning" if the people know how the money system actually worked? Well, the corrupt sociopaths in power know that government money can be issued IN ANY AMOUNT for anything that is physically possible, and they have arranged scams for decades to EMBEZZLE that money! The major one is "privatization", where they pretend they will run something better than the government and "like a business", but this scam is designed so they can bill the government ANY AMOUNT, providing massive exec salaries and insanely high profits. Wall Street firms fall over each other to invest - so do most Congress (or Parliament) members - when these entities are put on the stock market, because they know that profits are guaranteed via fiat government money. They all know that government money is NOT OUR TAXES, and that countries that issue their own currency do NOT have an actual "national debt" that the liars love to fearmonger us about, etc. We need to know what they want kept hidden from us. The US has been taking over countries since WW2 to do this embezzling scam and has built a corruption cartel of many lapdog countries; the liars demonize any leader who does not submit, to manipulate public opinion so we go along with the coups, invasions, assassinations, etc. The US also directs the WHO, created the WEF, and monolithic entities like Blackrock, Vanguard and others got so big by participating in the embezzling globally! We need to see the BS and FIGHT the lunatic money addicts and their inhumanity. They lie us into wars & then embezzle most of the war money through "privatized" war companies, incarcerate people to enrich themselves via "privatized" prisons. "Privatized" healthcare enriches insurance companies and related companies & investors, another corruption scam where they get torrents of government money but do NOT spend it on the healthcare people need. Vax companies and the digital ID systems to subjugate us are also privatized! So are all the entities to track and control us that the liars pretend are to "help the climate": social credit, ESG, carbon tracking, digital bank currency, 15-minute cities and more. The scheme was to get TRILLIONS from many governments FOREVER while ensuring we could not rise up to stop their corruption, tyranny and inhumanity. (Pretending there is not enough energy, oil, food is how they will try to force us to get those digital IDs - they will say it is so we can get our "rations" and UBI etc to try to survive.) This electronic prison to subjugate is being finalized, so time is running short for us to expose them and stop their plans for us. They use cloaking terms like "private" prisons, "for profit" healthcare, "public-private partnerships", etc, because they know that there is public backlash against privatization; we should always push back and use the CORRECT term when they do this. Currently, public education is being privatized by calling it "school choice" and "charter schools". The lunatic money addicts in power lie, destroy and KILL for more "money fixes". They are totally derelict in their duty and UNFIT TO GOVERN and should face charges of dereliction of duty, violating the Constitution, embezzling federal money, crimes against humanity, violating the Nuremberg code, war crimes and more.
Indiana here. Southwest corner, down on the river. I said this exact thing tonight. This is the original meaning of "woke". Realizing and pointing out all the BS that they (ruling class) use and splatter about to keep people (poor, working class) at odds with one another. This nonsense that is labeled as *WOKE* now, is not. It's grasping at straws to fulfill a void that people have in their souls. Make up anything to have a cause. This to me is like Bluegrass/Rhythm & Blues (Soul) music. After he gets done with the second verse and says "LAWWD"... That deep down pit he grabbed that from is a serious place to be able to be in tune with. Is usually nearly impossible to replicate. I sent my daughter off to college this weekend. I moved her up North in IN, in a Uhaul, took her grocery shopping and kissed her goodbye. I didn't indulge her in the truth that I would be negative in my balance after I got gas to get back home. THIS is what we're having to deal with monthly as a people. Maybe not the college move, but overall. I'm tired of hearing it's Biden's or Trump's, Republican or Democrats fault. It's all those rich, snobby, entitled pricks. They're the ruling class and have been greasing palms before or after they got out of politics. The younger ones are just dipping their toes in to see if they can take being neck deep in the filth. Coming up with nonsensical agendas to carve out niche cause, just to create a base.
@@ESmorgue it seems to be a pattern with the newer generations. I mean, they can never attain the greatness of Gen X, but to fill the void of not accomplishing anything meaningful, they resort to inventing new rules/false science/and the ridiculous notion that it is illegal to hurt people's feelings. Reality check: no legal recourse for being offended-there is however the right to say what we think short of yelling "FIRE" in a movie theater. They need to see a shrink and not deflect their insecurities on us. I couldnt care less about their feelings if it infringes on my legal rights.
In America the middle class has been destroyed, by design to create the age-old system of the have's, and the have not's! We don't have JUSTICE, we have JUST-US for the rich ruling elite!...from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸👋🤠
Awesome reaction, glad you shared your thoughts, this song has almost become an anthem for the fed up and frustrated. I saw Keith taking a drink right before the miner/minor lyrics and knew there was gonna be a choke a spew coming. The guitar is a Dobro (I think).
"I dont know whats worse, uninformed voters or informed voters." Wow its sad but so true and its nice to hear it said out loud. The world would be a lot better off if it wasnt for our leaders.
I threw out the "leaders" when I threw out my Tel-LIE-vision over 16 years ago!! They don't come to your door, they come through the TV 📺 They don't call it PROGRAMMING for nothing 📺🤣🤣 Throw out the Tel-LIE-vision and Live in Reality where They DON'T. Simple. TRUTH is where Freedom lives 🙌
Mark Twain had a quote similar to what you are talking about with the news: “if you don’t read the paper, you are uninformed. If you do read the paper, you are misinformed.” When I saw you take a drink right before the line about “miners/minors” I thought, “oh boy, this is going to be good!!!” Haha
People should definitely check out the 2 videos he made sitting in his truck. 1 was the night before the music video was released, and the other was when he was driving back after performing it live at that farmer's market for the first time. People should also definitely see him reading from Psalms 37 before performing. Those verses feel so apt, especially for the days we're living in now. He also has a video where Jamey Johnson was there at the market, and sang a small portion of "In Color" with Oliver playing and singing with him.
Great reaction. From what I have heard, after this blew up and went viral, he had record labels coming left and right. The word is that he turned them all down. Apparently one was an 8 million dollar offer.
I think the reason this has hit so hard besides the message is because of the authenticity of this performance. I have checked out some of his other songs and it's on those too. He has a great message and I hope people will listen and take something meaningful from it.
He says he doesn’t sing or play well. But I think his voice and that resonator guitar sound fantastic. God bless him. Politicians are after your vote, your money, and improving their lives. And the deck is stacked and the dealer is works for the house, nothing new. SNAFU
The song is good ! But why did these two idiots spend more time talking about their liquor than finding out about the song writer and his history? His history is much more interesting than these two bastards ever will be! These dumb guys don’t even know what a dobro is! They need to start drinking water , they already fried their brain
This song resonates with so many people. Us working folks are tired of working and being taxed to death because of lazy, entitled people milking welfare
And having our tax dollars go over seas especially with what happened with Maui and the way they let our fellow Americans there burn while cutting a new check for Ukraine
@@vickimurphy5183So true. Especially once the locals went to a meeting and the land developers were jumping to motion that all permits were suspended so they could get to building faster. The local elder said that they never once brought up trying to get supplies and resources in for the people.
@@ESmorgue It stinks of corruption so bad. I’ve seen so many locals talk about being corralled onto front street and road blocking them!! Then the land grab starts how are we not to think this all looks very intentional.
A lot of people have said this is about being fed up and mad but there’s something else there (my opinion) I hear a lot of anguish and despair there, helpless and hopeless. That’s the kind of feeling that fuels revolutions - again, just my opinion. (Shutting up now, over and out.)
Reaction to a very important song right now Oliver Anthony whose real name is Chris has three songs on the top 10 and standing true to his principles he just turned down 8 + 8 million dollar record deal. And from what I understand he may be working a little bit with John Rich from Big & Rich
It’s a resonator guitar, also known as a Dobro. The metal plate is part of the resonating body of the guitar, which helps give it that twangy, banjo-ish sound. That guitar is as old as I am and sounds gorgeous.
The R and The D are wings on the same damn bird. Nearly all of our problems aren't coming from the people it comes from North of Richmond (or in my case southeast of Pennsylvania). This was raw and passionate and is getting HUGE views in so many countries all over the world. Other reactors and comments from everywhere saying it hits them too because it's not just in the US. Which in it's self is just sad. Apparently he turned down a multi million dollar record deal when it was recently offered to him. Great reaction guys!
I’m informed and not by the wrong people thank goodness. I think you and I probably follow the beat of the same drummer guys. This man’s just speaking truth. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Great reaction as I knew it would be!
I watched you sip that 'bourbon' right before the line about the Island ... and I thought "oh shit this could get ugly" .... Thanks for the laugh .. Love the song and your reaction...
A Dobro Guitar is normally played with guitar leveled flat much like a steel. Very popular in country music. Allyson Krauss' band always has a Dobro Guitar.
I'm surprised you did this song so soon after it's release. Most of America left and right can relate to it. Good on you. Great reaction, awesome song.
This song is a reconning, as it resonates in ALL OUR SOULS. We KNOW these same facts and truths. We’re being spied on by our phones, tvs, iPads, computers, Alexa’s, etc., we’re pretending we DON’T know. We’re funding degeneracy. These same programs are robbing the hardworking men and women of America, of money they EARNED, and need. We’ve got some folks fighting like hell for us, sadly it’s not the majority. It’s ALWAYS going to be “WE THE PEOPLE”, we’ve just forgotten this fact. We need to rise up as ONE PEOPLE and fight back. We need to care for each other as brothers and sisters. May God bless the Peacekeepers and the Patriots.
He's singing what ALL those called "Crazy Conspiracy Theorists" have been screaming about for Decades!! Time for y'all to Really Wake Up (not woke) and start Really listening to the "Crazy" side - those speaking Truth 🙌 Truth is the only Unity and it's where Freedom lives 🙌
Oh, I threw out my Tel-LIE-vision (and all media) over 17 years ago -- I live in Reality, I ain't "woke" Wide Awake and have never worn a Slave Mask 😷 nor did I "lockdown" (lockdown --that's a term used for prisons) for a Planned-demic!! Seek Truth or Persih in the LIES.
I'm in SCOTLAND 🏴 and I Drink Jack Daniel's, loved how the whisky almost came out your nose😤 😂🤣😅 p.s. I used to work in Arther Bell 🛎 and sons whisky factory 🏭 in Dunfermline, just South of Perth main office, before the big companies too over 😊
Thank you for doing this. Enjoyed it. That was funny when you almost choked. I don't get lumping any group of individuals into a single category claiming, okay, all of these people are the same. Some office holders are not politicians at all but business owners, doctors, etc. They do care and that’s why they ran. Generalizing about any group is the very essence of prejudice and bigotry. It demeans people who sacrifice to be there for the right reasons. I’m aware that some go into politics with good intentions and then flip but again, others manage to maintain integrity. One big red flag is: Some make millions while in office, others come out having lost money. We should never lump these together. They are polar opposites.
The guitar is a Dobro. Also referred to as a lap guitar. Inside is a resonator that amplifies the sound. It's normally played with finger picks and a slider bar.
I love this song and I couldn't help but laugh when (knowing what's coming) you decided to take a drink at the start of the second verse. Good recovery though 👍😂
Thank you guys for finally doing this song. I have been watching for you to react to it for 10 days now. I appreciate your political rules. I wish you would give us your feelings on the topics it covered. Thank you again and have a great night
I am able to spend $200 a week on average at the market but when I see what it gets me, I am feeling mighty low. I used to only spend $150 a week and get a little more. And this is when I get my mother groceries that she cannot afford on her own that add up to about $40 on average for just her living by herself. If I had kids, oh my. I would have to make sure that I could still eat healthy and not resort to buying cheap box meals and crap with all kinds of unhealthy ingredients. Its just getting ridiculous. At least the summer allows people to buy produce from the many farmer's markets that pop up but during the winter, its another story. The healthiest you can get is possibly getting a low sodium soup or getting the ingredients to throw everything in a crock pot to make your own stew. Oliver is hitting home with us all. He has struck a cord for sure. The minors references is this: The first word is for "miners" meaning to look out for people who work in coal mines for their living who are being made jobless because of the push on clean energy and the destruction of ever mining coal ever again. And then the second reference is for "minors" and he references the minors on an island and he's talking about Epstein island as welk as the notion of child trafficking. When he speaks of those who don't anything to eat he then references fat people who somehow have the money and choice to buy crappy food and keep getting fat while others are starving - somehow, there are still people in this country of plenty going hungry. The only thing welfare should supply those who are on it is essentials for life - not treats and crappy foods. Us tax payers are allowing this to happen. It sure has changed since when I was a kid. But why?
Its an acoustic guitar, the steel covering is called a resonator, it has a cool sound, that was the best reaction I've seen on the island issue, lol, powerful song and message and so true,
What we are experiencing is Modern Day Sl a ve ry. I thought Everyone was against sl a ve ry? Why is it tolerated? Hmmm.... 🙂 BEAUTIFUL reaction! Thanks. Appreciate it. Thanks for keeping it real. Keep up the Great Work! Peace 🙂 One of the coolest things about all this is that Oliver Anthony seems to have a HEART OF GOLD. This gleaned by the many videos he has posted about this awesome experience.🙂
In the last week I have listened to over fifty reactions of this guy - no I never do this on anyone else - but you guys get what this guy is singing about. Now take the time to watch his video made the night before this song was made and the one he made in his truck a few days later. Each is only a few minutes but this explains a lot. Most people do watch them and understand him.
This is a good song. A Resonator is a guitar with a metal resonator box. These are often used to play slide in both blues and bluegrass. I can't think of a good suggestion, but I'd love to see you react to some more songs with a resonator. Thanks for the reaction.
100% correct. It doesn't matter if they have a R or D by their name. They care only about themselves. We are just the pawns in their games
Trump wasn't
He was for us
The hell with R and D vote USA or get the hell out, I’ve worked my whole damn life away for empty promises. ✌️🇺🇸
His song, Doggone it... "Republicans and Democrats, I swear they're all just full of crap. I've never seen a good city slickin' bureaucrat."
Horsesht. One brand believes men with penises should shower with your daughters in high school. One brand believes you have no 2A rights. One brand wants to tell you what fuel you have to use to heat your stove or drive you car. Some R's are actually D's, but no D's are actually R's. Wise up.

I'd call it a Ganjo. 🍻

He sings just fine. Not everybody has to be polished. He connects with people, and that's what art is supposed to do.

This song resonates with so many people. Us working folks are tired of working and being taxed to death because of lazy, entitled people milking welfare
And having our tax dollars go over seas especially with what happened with Maui and the way they let our fellow Americans there burn while cutting a new check for Ukraine
@@vickimurphy5183 exactly!
@@vickimurphy5183So true. Especially once the locals went to a meeting and the land developers were jumping to motion that all permits were suspended so they could get to building faster. The local elder said that they never once brought up trying to get supplies and resources in for the people.
@@ESmorgue It stinks of corruption so bad. I’ve seen so many locals talk about being corralled onto front street and road blocking them!! Then the land grab starts how are we not to think this all looks very intentional.
I was wanting to warn you about taking a drink at just that moment… woulda if I coulda.
A lot of people have said this is about being fed up and mad but there’s something else there (my opinion) I hear a lot of anguish and despair there, helpless and hopeless. That’s the kind of feeling that fuels revolutions - again, just my opinion. (Shutting up now, over and out.)
Reaction to a very important song right now Oliver Anthony whose real name is Chris has three songs on the top 10 and standing true to his principles he just turned down 8 + 8 million dollar record deal. And from what I understand he may be working a little bit with John Rich from Big & Rich
Was hoping you guys would get to this one. Hit me in my soul. ❤
It’s a resonator guitar, also known as a Dobro. The metal plate is part of the resonating body of the guitar, which helps give it that twangy, banjo-ish sound. That guitar is as old as I am and sounds gorgeous.
The R and The D are wings on the same damn bird.
Nearly all of our problems aren't coming from the people it comes from North of Richmond (or in my case southeast of Pennsylvania).
This was raw and passionate and is getting HUGE views in so many countries all over the world.
Other reactors and comments from everywhere saying it hits them too because it's not just in the US. Which in it's self is just sad.
Apparently he turned down a multi million dollar record deal when it was recently offered to him.
Great reaction guys!
I’m informed and not by the wrong people thank goodness. I think you and I probably follow the beat of the same drummer guys. This man’s just speaking truth. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Great reaction as I knew it would be!
I watched you sip that 'bourbon' right before the line about the Island ... and I thought "oh shit this could get ugly" .... Thanks for the laugh ..
Love the song and your reaction...
This was probably one of the most AWESOME reactions I have ever seen- breakin all the rules-drinkin scotch-the spit take…You two crack me up!!
A Dobro Guitar is normally played with guitar leveled flat much like a steel. Very popular in country music. Allyson Krauss' band always has a Dobro Guitar.
I loved that he 💔 pointed out the skyrocketing suicide rates. I lost a child a year after their college graduation. 💔😢
SO SORRY, can't imagine
That song has something in it that hits a nerve and shows who does what for whom.
Everything he's singin' is the TRUTH! ❤ it.
I'm surprised you did this song so soon after it's release. Most of America left and right can relate to it. Good on you. Great reaction, awesome song.
You guys were REALLY asking us for this one. - Keith
the voice of millions of people around the world ... thank you
This song is a reconning, as it resonates in ALL OUR SOULS. We KNOW these same facts and truths. We’re being spied on by our phones, tvs, iPads, computers, Alexa’s, etc., we’re pretending we DON’T know. We’re funding degeneracy. These same programs are robbing the hardworking men and women of America, of money they EARNED, and need.
We’ve got some folks fighting like hell for us, sadly it’s not the majority.
It’s ALWAYS going to be “WE THE PEOPLE”, we’ve just forgotten this fact.
We need to rise up as ONE PEOPLE and fight back. We need to care for each other as brothers and sisters.
May God bless the Peacekeepers and the Patriots.
He's singing what ALL those called "Crazy Conspiracy Theorists" have been screaming about for Decades!!
Time for y'all to Really Wake Up (not woke) and start Really listening to the "Crazy" side - those speaking Truth 🙌
Truth is the only Unity and it's where Freedom lives 🙌
Oh, I threw out my Tel-LIE-vision (and all media) over 17 years ago -- I live in Reality, I ain't "woke" Wide Awake and have never worn a Slave Mask 😷 nor did I "lockdown" (lockdown --that's a term used for prisons) for a Planned-demic!!
Seek Truth or Persih in the LIES.
Great reaction. It is a resonator guitar like a lap steel guitar just a different shape that is played like a standard acoustic guitar.
I watched you take that drink and thought…bad timing lol
I'm in SCOTLAND 🏴 and I Drink Jack Daniel's, loved how the whisky almost came out your nose😤 😂🤣😅 p.s. I used to work in Arther Bell 🛎 and sons whisky factory 🏭 in Dunfermline, just South of Perth main office, before the big companies too over 😊
The guitar is a Gretsch Resonator. Often called a Dobro but that’s a brand name.
That Instrument is called a Dobro Lynyrd Skynyrd sung about the Dobro in the song The Ballad Of Curtis Loew. Curtis Loew had one that he played
👏👏👏👏👏 This has been my favorite reaction video to Chris' song by far!!! 👏👏👏 Good job gentlemen!
You guys are so cool!!!!!!! Thanks!
His songs "I've Got to get Sober" and "Virginia" are really good.
Excellent!! “Chris” Oliver has balls!!!
This is what a MAN looks like.
The guitar is a resonator guitar...give it that banjo sound from a acoustic. love you guys
You don't edit... whatever DA shyt happens.. yo, love it
"people who are well suited for politics wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.". amen. and thanks.
BUY Oliver's music & the world's message will top ALL of the charts. 🥰 Then we do our part... Action. 🎬
I've been watching so many of these reviews waiting for someone to take a drink right at that exact moment. You sir are the first LOL
That's a dobro my friends ☺️
Wondering when you guys would do this one. Knew you had to bc it's so huge right now.
It’s all theater in Politics. Regardless if it’s local or national level. We’re not voting our way out of this mess folks. God Bless.
Peace, Love!!
It's a Gretsch resonator guitar. Popular with Appalachian folk music.
Thank you... Because of this we connected... Keep it up. From The Netherlands 🙏
Thanks for watching. We love the international nature of this channel. - Keith
Thank you for doing this. Enjoyed it. That was funny when you almost choked. I don't get lumping any group of individuals into a single category claiming, okay, all of these people are the same. Some office holders are not politicians at all but business owners, doctors, etc. They do care and that’s why they ran. Generalizing about any group is the very essence of prejudice and bigotry. It demeans people who sacrifice to be there for the right reasons. I’m aware that some go into politics with good intentions and then flip but again, others manage to maintain integrity. One big red flag is: Some make millions while in office, others come out having lost money. We should never lump these together. They are polar opposites.
Ol country boy brought the world together in three minutes.
The guitar is a Dobro. Also referred to as a lap guitar. Inside is a resonator that amplifies the sound. It's normally played with finger picks and a slider bar.
You should watch the back story for this song
Definitely.
American folk and bluegrass came out of Scotland and the Scot Irish peoples so drinking Scotch seems appropriated to me, though I do not drink.
Washington/Adams '89 was the last ticket I could get behind. Now I just vote for the person I hate the least.
Outstanding you two
I love this song and I couldn't help but laugh when (knowing what's coming) you decided to take a drink at the start of the second verse. Good recovery though 👍😂
Love this channel
Bad time to take a drink dude....lmao. Love this song.
Preach brothers!
Love you boys, god feared and god blessed ❤
The guitar is a Resonator. The sound is produced through metal cones. I hope I am explaining that correctly.
Oooo, I was thinking, "Don't take a sip right now!" I was afraid you were going to strangle!! Good save!
He is the only one with guts enough to say what we all think
Thank you guys for finally doing this song. I have been watching for you to react to it for 10 days now. I appreciate your political rules. I wish you would give us your feelings on the topics it covered. Thank you again and have a great night
❤ Love you guys reactions!!!
I am able to spend $200 a week on average at the market but when I see what it gets me, I am feeling mighty low. I used to only spend $150 a week and get a little more. And this is when I get my mother groceries that she cannot afford on her own that add up to about $40 on average for just her living by herself. If I had kids, oh my. I would have to make sure that I could still eat healthy and not resort to buying cheap box meals and crap with all kinds of unhealthy ingredients. Its just getting ridiculous. At least the summer allows people to buy produce from the many farmer's markets that pop up but during the winter, its another story. The healthiest you can get is possibly getting a low sodium soup or getting the ingredients to throw everything in a crock pot to make your own stew. Oliver is hitting home with us all. He has struck a cord for sure.
The minors references is this: The first word is for "miners" meaning to look out for people who work in coal mines for their living who are being made jobless because of the push on clean energy and the destruction of ever mining coal ever again. And then the second reference is for "minors" and he references the minors on an island and he's talking about Epstein island as welk as the notion of child trafficking. When he speaks of those who don't anything to eat he then references fat people who somehow have the money and choice to buy crappy food and keep getting fat while others are starving - somehow, there are still people in this country of plenty going hungry. The only thing welfare should supply those who are on it is essentials for life - not treats and crappy foods. Us tax payers are allowing this to happen. It sure has changed since when I was a kid. But why?
Its an acoustic guitar, the steel covering is called a resonator, it has a cool sound, that was the best reaction I've seen on the island issue, lol, powerful song and message and so true,
The hook
LIVING IN THE NEW WORLD WITH AN OLD SOUL
I loved that line. - Keith
Period.
Lebanon, Nigeria, Chile, Brazil, Zimbabwe, S. Africa, Germany, Sweden, UK, Australia, NZ... Its everywhere. ❤
Mate, Oliver’s actually playing a resonator guitar…they were popular in Bluegrass and early Country music back in the day…
When you took that drink, I was thinking it's about to come out. Lol
love this song he sings the truth
Hello from Greenup Co. KY
That's called a Resonator" guitar. It used to be common in Bluegrass and Folk genres.
What we are experiencing is Modern Day Sl a ve ry. I thought Everyone was against sl a ve ry? Why is it tolerated? Hmmm.... 🙂
BEAUTIFUL reaction! Thanks. Appreciate it. Thanks for keeping it real. Keep up the Great Work! Peace 🙂
One of the coolest things about all this is that Oliver Anthony seems to have a HEART OF GOLD. This gleaned by the many videos he has posted about this awesome experience.🙂
Bourbon and Oliver Anthony!!! YES!!! Keep it real, y'all!!!
Paris, Ky. here!
In the last week I have listened to over fifty reactions of this guy - no I never do this on anyone else - but you guys get what this guy is singing about. Now take the time to watch his video made the night before this song was made and the one he made in his truck a few days later. Each is only a few minutes but this explains a lot. Most people do watch them and understand him.
Not really necessary for me to dig. He's pretty much every appalachian right now. And I grew up in that, surrounded by dudes exactly like him. - Keith
Powerful
It is a resonator guitar
For some reason, he reminds me of Stonewall Jackson. Maybe it is the beard. This song is powerfull like Stonewall.
Rules? Nope. Right. What we feel to be true. What we KNOW. Do and fight for that. You KNOW what is right. Cheerful courage. 💜🌿🌷
Two things.
1. It's a Gretsch resonator guitar.
2. It's hard to laugh down boubron.
3. :)
True leadership - True leaders wouldn't touch politics with a 10 foot pole. That is so true.
This is a good song. A Resonator is a guitar with a metal resonator box. These are often used to play slide in both blues and bluegrass. I can't think of a good suggestion, but I'd love to see you react to some more songs with a resonator. Thanks for the reaction.
That Gretsch Resonator guitar has a beautiful sound to it also…
This guy speaks the truth! He's speaking for everyone!
As Keith took a swig leading into miners/minors I wanted to yell out a warning.
