Back here watching this again, for who knows how many times, and wow, it's already 4:30 in the morning. Time flys when I get stuck on great music on RUclips!
Brilliant!!! I love the original but this is really something special. I also liked the original CMA video better because you could really see the audience reaction at the end. They were coming out of their skin. Zac and the boys blew the roof off that place!
Great song by Zac Brown Band & i would like to see them do this in person cause it is awesome & i don't think that no other band could do this song better than Zac Brown Band
Coming from a metalhead who really dislikes country music I can safely say they killed it and I absolutely loved their version. Their performance was among as well, I wish I was there to see them in person
Devil went down to Georgia He was lookin' for a soul to steal He was in a bind 'Cause he was way behind And he was willin' to make a deal When he came upon this young man Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot And the devil jumped Up on a hickory stump And said, "boy, let me tell you what I guess you didn't know it But I'm a fiddle player too And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy But give the devil his due I'll bet a fiddle of gold Against your soul 'Cause I think I'm better than you" The boy said, "my name's Johnny And it might be a sin But I'll take your bet And you're gonna regret 'Cause I'm the best there's ever been" Johnny, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard 'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia, and the devil deals the cards And if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold But if you lose, the devil gets your soul The devil opened up his case And he said, "I'll start this show" And fire flew from his fingertips As he rosined up his bow Then he pulled the bow across the strings And it made an evil hiss And a band of demons joined in And it sounded something like this When the devil finished Johnny said, "well, you're pretty good, old son But sit down in that chair right there And let me show you how it's done" He played Fire on the Mountain run boys, run The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun Chicken in a bread pan pickin' out dough Granny, does your dog bite? No child, no The devil bowed his head Because he knew that he'd been beat And he laid that golden fiddle On the ground at Johnny's feet Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back If you ever want to try again I done told you once you son of a bitch I'm the best that's ever been" He played Fire on the Mountain run boys, run The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun Chicken in a bread pan pickin' out dough Granny, does your dog bite? No child, no
Now this is Music! Not a lot of crap music of today. And where some ppl can't sing good but still have millions of fans, and go on tour. *Jacob Sartorious* for example. I've only watched videos of ppl reacting to his music/ music video. And his real voice..: no auto tune (which doesn't help). 😬👎🏻🙉🙉
best all-around band in country today. It's not even fucking close. This pop horseshit is getting out of fucking control. I damn near never listen to it anymore the radio is fucking shit. But there is something different about this band. Every single one of them is amazing and they can also sing. don't believe me that the other band members can sing? Look up Zac Brown Band cover of Enter Sandman by Metallica. He doesn't even sing and its amazing
this version is very good, very well executed, and they have a very nice technical and instrumental skills, but it's too much ! they can do it very well but the original have more taste, more flavour. It's soo speed here that you can"t taste the music, the riddle, the sound, the funny part and the "magical" trick in the thing. This song has a soul, and a special atmosphere that is not so present here, even if the technic and the instrumental part is waw ! sorry
I always prefer the version to the original bc I never understood why the devil would challenge someone who's good at fiddle playing when his part in the original sounds like shit. Like of course you're going to lose if you can't even play. The "evil hiss" part was superior in the original though. The "duel" at the end between zac and the fiddler was a lovely touch. I keep coming back to watch again
![Zac Brown Band - Day For The Dead [feat. Dave Grohl] [Live at the 2013 CMA Awards]](/img/1.gif)
They should get an award just for this it's unbelievable
Oh my stars they are very good

This to awesome & i really do want to watch this & Zac Brown Band is awesome country band ever !!!!!!!!
Zac Brown Band is awesome country band
I do agree with you & Zac Brown Band is awesome country band & i would like to see them do this
Back here watching this again, for who knows how many times, and wow, it's already 4:30 in the morning. Time flys when I get stuck on great music on RUclips!
The guy playing the fiddle killed it, even though he looks like Steve Burns from blues clues with that shirt.
Jimmy d matini
That's jimmy De Martini. He's one of the best fiddle players around right now.
You're absolutely right about the shirt though lol
I've seen them play this live and they are sooo amazing ! They are other worldly talented... Love this band...

Thank you SOOOOOOOO much. This really made my day :-)
I would like to see them do that cause it would be awesome
Every other performer in that audience should bow their heads because they knew they'd been beat.
I held my breath during those solos. Amazing!!!
ZBB is the most talented band on the planet right now. The amount of talent here it's mind blowing 🤯
Great song ever by Zac Brown Band & it is amazing to heard by them & I say great job & I would hear them sing that song again :)
My fingers hurt just watching this. 😳 🎸 wow!
I like really do like Zac Brown & the guy playing & walking around
Still the best cover version ever.
One of the best songs ever... This version is Incredible!
What the hell did I just watch?
That was insanely awesome!
Charlie in heaven is proud of this
I remember seeing this on tv as they did it. Still gives me shivers
Great song by Zac Brown Band & i would like to see them do this in person cause it is awesome & i don't think that no other band could do this song better than Zac Brown Band
Its actually not there song its a cover of it. The original artist is by The Charlie Daniels band and its really good by them as well
Excellent cover! That violinist played just as good as Xharlie if not even better! Wow!!!
I love at 2:16 that Keith Urban is SO into it :D
thanks for sharing this video & Zac Brown Band dose better & i don't think that nobody else could do this better
Great song from Zac Brown Band
Alexis Kinsey this isn’t there song
Zac Brown Band is good singing this song & nobody else could do this song better than the Zac Brown Band cause they are great with the song 🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
The Zac Brown Band is really the only band I’ve seen do this at the original’s full speed. Hell this may be faster
This is hella faster
holy crime! that was the best! speechless!
Pretty dang good
that's good music right ther boys.
I RARELY think a cover is good, let alone better than the original, but this is one example.
Its definitely good, but it isn't the original
@@XJonAye Not even close to the original. CDB just played and didn't get into theatrics.
I remember watching ZBB covering this, I was shocked to say the least the fiddle player is simply amazing
Zac Brown Band makes the song sound better
Definitely thought that was Zach Galifianakis at 1:30 for about half a second...haha
That wild look in his eye after that first couple lines😂
Coming from a metalhead who really dislikes country music I can safely say they killed it and I absolutely loved their version. Their performance was among as well, I wish I was there to see them in person
The sound is really low... if there's any way in making it louder, this would be perfect.
Scopeze I tried to turn my volume up just before I read this comment. the volume is very low on recording 😢
Well damn.
great quality upload!!
So proud of you guys ! Used to watch yall in milledgeville ! I even kissed Zac on the chick and hugged him! I knew yall woukd make it ! So Proud!
🤩😈🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Devil went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a soul to steal
He was in a bind
'Cause he was way behind
And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came upon this young man
Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot
And the devil jumped
Up on a hickory stump
And said, "boy, let me tell you what
I guess you didn't know it
But I'm a fiddle player too
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold
Against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you"
The boy said, "my name's Johnny
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet
And you're gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best there's ever been"
Johnny, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia, and the devil deals the cards
And if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul
The devil opened up his case
And he said, "I'll start this show"
And fire flew from his fingertips
As he rosined up his bow
Then he pulled the bow across the strings
And it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this
When the devil finished
Johnny said, "well, you're pretty good, old son
But sit down in that chair right there
And let me show you how it's done"
He played Fire on the Mountain run boys, run
The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun
Chicken in a bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? No child, no
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat
And he laid that golden fiddle
On the ground at Johnny's feet
Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back
If you ever want to try again
I done told you once you son of a bitch
I'm the best that's ever been"
He played Fire on the Mountain run boys, run
The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun
Chicken in a bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? No child, no
1:20 TENACIOUS D!!!!
wish it would be louder 🙄

Florida Georgia Line: “What the heck was that?”
Derek Messimer 😂
"That, son, is what is known as talent."
Amazing cover. That’s the way to kick the cowboy sparks out of a song ! Charlie would of stood up and tipped his hat . 😎
Upload a louder version please.....It sounds like a feckin mouse
turn up your volume...
Zack Galifinakis on the tamborine was great.
That tambourine player is fighting for his life.
Wish my audio was clearer
Its quiet for everyone
There's epic music like this out there and somehow, some people actually go crazy for Justin Bieber. 🤣 What is wrong with people?
music
thanks
What happened to the originial video?
One day, I watched it, came back a few hours later and it had been removed--by CMA, I think.
Placebo_Jones thats what i was wondering.
www.dailymotion.com/video/x3v8fyo
i don't know & i could care less about it & Zac Brown Band dose it better than the other country band
I really do like when Zac Brown Band does this version of Devil went down to Georgia cause it better
this version is very good, very well executed, and they have a very nice technical and instrumental skills, but it's too much ! they can do it very well but the original have more taste, more flavour. It's soo speed here that you can"t taste the music, the riddle, the sound, the funny part and the "magical" trick in the thing.

I agree, people on here saying this is better than the original don't have a clue.
Lot better than charlie
This cover destroyed the original this is fire

I don't think this is that good at all. The original is far better. This seems rushed and with less soul.
These guys ruined a great classic. Straight butchered it. Sad.
Most people disagree
