My husband died 4 days following his vax. We were married 52 years. I rescued a dog who has given me as much as I've given him. When I'm home alone, he snuggles next to me and shows unconditional love. I know where Oliver is coming from when he sings.
I can't imagine the pain and longing for your husband. James 1:27 Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
The man sings with the Lord's hand on his shoulder. There may just be a little divine intervention here and it's about damn time. The one thing we all share and lose every day is time. Some use it wisely, others squander it foolishly. Oliver has that rare gift to make us reflect with his mournful wailing cry for a time long gone. The bittersweet sentimentality in his voice will tear a hole right through your chest every single time. This kind of thing doesn't happen very often. I'm 58 years old and I've only seen something similar to this a few times. Relish this moment, it won't come again.
Sir....this is truth. We gotta put down one of our dogs tomorrow and my heart is in pieces. I suffer PTSD from the military and combined with this world being spun outta control, my God, my Wife, and my Dogs are all I got.
So sorry for your loss. The only time I've seen my husband "gut cry" was over one of our dogs. Our dogs provide unwaving loyalty and unconditional love, no questions asked. 😢
I'm so sorry for your loss. Such a difficult decision to make and one made from love as we want to end their suffering. We have three dogs, but lost our Little Bitty (Chihuahua) three years ago. My heart goes out to you.
You asked for another comment so I will reply sir. We've been married 29 years, and are a single income family. First was the military...then I was injured after 13 years. I literally had to have them downgrade my disability just so I could Still work and provide for my wife and kids cause VA pensions are crap. So now 15 years later I'm finally middle management and stuck there cause I won't lie to climb a ladder. My income would be great 20 years ago...but it ain't enough...we are about to lose our house and it's only God, my wife, and my two (soon to be one :( dog) How did this world get to this point where a guy with a nuclear degree and 35 years of work experience can't make it? I want to go home too. I won't punch my own ticket but I'm waiting desperately on the conductor while praying constantly.
Just remember that “dog” is “God” spelled backwards. I’ve had dogs my entire 70 years as well as other pets. I can’t imagine going through life without the companionship of a dog. This song by Oliver really hit hard as he was speaking my feelings. Great reaction!
I hate feeling angry everyday about what is happening in this country. I swear all the time and now I just feel so deflated for the future and my son's future. Four years ago I didn't feel this way.
His words are helping my mental health right now , I have Major Chronic Depression , i went and got help when I was a young woman , which was not a popular idea at the time , but thank God I did ,because I found out something very important ,that I was not the only one suffering ,and also I felt heard ,which is what all humans need is to feel is heard
I'm a 62 year old USAF Vet, recently forced to take retirement at the lowest scale. I sit at home with my dogs. I don't know where I'd be if it wasn't for them. I don't own a car and am pretty much trapped. The best way for me to "unwind" is to go to the woods, walk back in, sit, and take in the fresh air and nature's sounds. Public transportation doesn't get there.
A word of encouragement. King David had mighty men around him (37 in all) he gave courage to the people around him. As a youth had killed a giant. 1Sam. 22:1 David therefore departed from there and escaped to the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down there to him. 2 And everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about four hundred men with him. 2Sam. 23:8 These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-Basshebeth the Tachmonite, chief among the captains. He was called Adino the Eznite, because he had killed eight hundred men at one time. 9 And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David when they defied the Philistines who were gathered there for battle, and the men of Israel had retreated. 10 He arose and attacked the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand stuck to the sword. The LORD brought about a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to plunder. 11 And after him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. The Philistines had gathered together into a troop where there was a piece of ground full of lentils. So the people fled from the Philistines. 12 But he stationed himself in the middle of the field, defended it, and killed the Philistines. So the LORD brought about a great victory.
I'm one of your new subscribers, from Italy! 🇮🇹 The media here, as usual, has largely ignored Oliver Anthony save for a few vitriolic articles that have popped up here and there, labelling his songs as "right-wing anthems". Oliver's songs strike a chord with me and others here in Italy because his message goes beyond politics, blindly taking sides, etc. They speak at a deeper level. I appreciate your analysis and insights and your ability to delve into various topics. Personally, I don't have any issues with the length of your reaction videos: articulating meaningful thoughts requires time. Keep it up!
Yes I was there!- at the bottom w/ no emotion of any kind. Then a Spiritual awakening happened - not because of me , it was meeting people that had an almost unbelievable expression of love /heart/ relationship. I could not believe that a heart could do anything but pump blood! In desperation I asked God to show me what my heart is and how can it be real that HE could change it-show me. Bam!! HE lite me UP! HE audibly Spoke to me , Changed me ! I’ll never be the same!
Nate, I have watched both of your reactions to Oliver Anthony's videos. Dude, do all the talking that's on your heart because you are hitting it spot on! You now have a new subscriber.
'Home' may be his recent journey back to God/faith as he got sober. But I like the idea of it being about heaven and how he lets it be known the earthly home is gone
Hey Nate, great comments man!!! I'm a former fellow Northwest guy. Lived much of my life just south of you in Portland, OR. Currently living elsewhere and am happy to have left. It simply didn't fit who I was. I love your depth. You do you!!! Have hit the like and sub. Button. Looking forward to hearing more from you. Many blessings to you. Oliver's message is so important for what we all are living through right now. You can hear the pain and lament in his incredible voice. His focus has changed from the temporal to the eternal. He definitely is talking about a heart change. It's real and raw. That is what people are connecting with. Prayers up for Oliver (Chris) 🙏❤️
I am thinking right now....after this going global, there is i no chance for their agenda of transhumanisam..... We are all humans with old souls not robots!!! This going viral gives me a hope that humanity will live , every teardrop for his songs is part of a big soul that unites us!❤
I really hope you're right, but it's like he's just crying over the problems now and not willing to fight back. I don't think we have much of a chance unless we are willing to fight for our right to live.
The verse is a quote from Jesus. The verse he read before the concert was Psalms 37. There's a video now of him reading the last chapter of the Revelation
I had a dog for almost 15 years and she had to pass over the rainbow bridge back in February of 2021 - I also lost my mother in law and aunt that year as well let alone getting COVID for the 2nd time. I went to get another dog from the same breeder who said she would would be in the same blood line as my first dog - which was important to me and she is now a little over 2 years old. She is such a great company to my husband and I - both of us are combat veterans so she gives us alot of joy. Dogs or any pet really, love us unconditionally. When you get my age (in my 50's) you start to look back on the things you've done and ask yourself what have I done so far because I don't know how much time I have left. Its at this point that any of my older relatives will die much quicker to each other and one day I will join them. I just love being alive and being on this Earth but I know I will have a few more dark days. However, faith and family will comfort hard times. Always enjoy the ones around you before they are no longer here.
You called out the "dog lovers" so here I am. My dog is my wife and my wife is my dog. Living alone with her is a godsend. She's a small "woman", about 14 pounds. She's with me 24/7 and tells me when it's time to go to bed, when it's time to chill in the recliner, and when it's snack time, too. I'd be lost without her as I'm disabled and need her companionship to remind me to get up and do things. So, yes, they ARE mankind's best gift from the Almighty. Good job and Keep the Faith, Bro. That's one thing they can't touch...
I stopped watching TV 10 yrs ago because I noticed that BS they are feeding us was depicting how I felt that day. I allowed the opinions of another dictate my own. As a mother and a grandmother, it breaks my heart to hear the pain in his voice because we are supposed to protect our children. 😢 One song from my generation that doesn't get enough credit, recommend listening to it next. White Lion, "When the children cry". It was a warning in the 80s of where we are today. My dog, Atticus, is my life line....unconditional ❤️.
Obviously love Oliver (Chris) Anthony and his music, voice and message! I also love to hear you speak of your higher self and try to raise our vibration despite the appearance of world events currently. Thank you both for your words of wisdom and encouragement!
I love your different interpretations of this song. I never considered that perhaps he wants to go home to the way things were back in the day. I was the last generation of the 90s kids who still rode bikes until the street lights came on, no cell phones or iPads.. we had a Nintendo Entertainment System and we’d play for 1-2 hours and then back out side to the woods, which of course have all been wiped out for more housing. 8 billion people on this planet and the low intelligence people who can’t afford it have the most…statistically. I stopped watching the news for 3 years and I was happier than ever but like you I’ve had to view both sides and make my own theories but it’s definitely had a negative effect on my mental health, but like you said, you just have to keep going. Great review!
THIS is why most of us like reaction videos... because along with our pets (I'm more of a cat person, though I do love dogs as well), it really helps to hear that others feel the same way we do. And this songs resonates so much with people because we're all just so dang TIRED of the struggle. We're in what so many cultures have called "The End Times," and in so many ways it's very exciting, but first we have to go through the exposure of all the bad things... and all the bad people... and UNITE as a people against them. It's songs like these that are greatly helping that happen.
Hey Nate, found you when watching Oliver Anthony react videos. We are on the same page, I so appreciate your thoughtfulness and how awake you are. I must admit, it was easier before the red pill. There is no going back. We have to come together, care for each other and realize the barriers between us are fake and pushed by an agenda to destroy us. Our gov wants us dead. I will not comply. So grateful for Oliver's music and really glad I found your channel. Keep up the great work, appreciate it
Let's tilt the scale together. Soon there will be more red pilled people than the rest and we change the future for the better. Greetings from est Europe.
I appreciate your take on this and the amount of time you put in. I wonder if, perhaps you aren't missing something important from this song. Large portions of this song are a prayer to a person he calls "The good Lord". He ends this with a verse from the Christian Bible. It should be evident that he is prayerfully pursuing the only one who can provide hope in a hopeless time. This is the heart cry of someone who feels completely unmoored from any other source of comfort. He cant return to his earthly home, and must cry out to God himself to provide that which OA has lost and has no way to find apart from divine aid.
Just turned 50. I wanna go home simply means I want to go back in time. Even just 15 or 20 years. 30 or so would be better. No body scanners at the airport, no constant apprehension of your fellow human being - wondering what offense you might perpetrate out of nothing, more music like this across genres pre-autotune, etc. People automatically accuse wanting to go home as wanting to go 'backwards'. Yet, they never lived it and don't realize they have made their own situations far worse now than they ever were before just 20 years ago. I do indeed miss 'home'. 👍
Another thoughtful take. Thank you. As we sort through the madness searching for solutions, critical thinkers and truth tellers are crucial. I do wish that staying informed wasn’t so time consuming. My goodness…. The amount of articles from independent journalists, transcripts, studies, original source materials, & books one must read in concert with the array of interviews, commentary, & podcasts one must watch or to which one must listen, is utterly ridiculous. It takes hours a day. Checking out is no longer an option if we want to be responsible humans, adults, &/or citizens. . It’s wild, for example, that Jimmy freaking Dore is a resource more accurate & broad in reporting the news than any corporate print or televised news organization. That alone says everything about this era of propagandized messaging across the board. The fact that 1-2K people died in Maui 2 weeks ago & MSM will only cover Trump’s mugshot & their fear that he will destroy democracy as we know it is insanity at the highest level. Sigh… sorry. I went all venty. The brevity of OA’s song is a better way to communicate but I’m not him:-) Thanks again! Looking forward to hearing more from you.
Hi Nate, just wanted to let you know that I have watched a ton of reaction videos and your insight and clarity of thought is well and above most youtube reactors. Like you, I am a huge Oliver Anthony fan and find his music and words to be both inspiring and thought provoking. Keep on doing the good work that you do. And thank you!
Ok you got me! New Sub! My Fur boys and my human ones too! I have help my Fur family cross over and with anguish I said never again! Especially Bub! I still hurt even though it was 7 years ago and some! 2016 sucked bc I also cared for my Mom at home until the end! Whew! Sorry 😮 your words moved me deeply! I now have 3 Fur boys and Bc Bub’s wanted me to one is a rescue and 2 from pups. One is watching me bc yea I’m 😢. He is also a JR 😂as was Bub’s! Your a great reactionist! ❤
Shout out from Olympia Washington~ like your takes so far dude👍 can't imagine why you went to LA but whatever, keep the videos coming. The study about prayer and how our intentions are all connected to each other is highlighted in a book called The Field by Lynn McTaggart. Great book
I cannot say for sure, but, when people look back many years from now, they may call this man a prophet. He speaks so simply but with a depth that eludes those who think they are educated, deep and experienced. Whatever he is, he is worth protecting and considering the messages he spreads freely to us.
I pray it everyday. This world has fell well below what we were meant for . It's a shame that we allow the country to be manipulated by the few that are in power . Revolution is our only hope for survival.
Nice one Nate!👍 Found your channel on your first O.A. reaction/breakdown video. Good stuff. And yes, dogs are the greatest treasures created. I'm not religious so to speak, but I do tend to gravitate towards the stars looking for answers to the endless questions of our existence. In an age where mathematics and science are ignored....most logical, critical thinking peeps are gonna facepalm infinitely🤦♂️ And get called racist,misogynist,transphobic menaces to society.🤣😂🤣😂 thanks for the videos👌
🙌👏 53 y/o white woman struggled with these same issues (pain meds I still need turned into addiction in my 40s) & my daughter kept me going for a long time but she's grown & gone so now my pup (& other people's too since I petsit for people who can't afford to board or pay expensive businesses who offer the service) keep me out of the psych ward! 🙏
I really appreciate your honest and thoughtful reaction/discussion Sir. I really love this song as a Christian myself. Our cultural problems are very much linked to a abandonment of God. God is using this man to try and reach out to others. The wanting to go home idea stems from CS Lewis who said that man has always longed for something that they cannot find on this Earth. CS Lewis said it is logical to assume that maybe if we don't feel at home then maybe we were made for another world. Christians believe we are just passing through this life to our ultimate home with Jesus Christ. He said a place is being prepared for us in His Father's house. So ultimately, we have a hope grounded in God's creation and the Bible that things will get better and our sinful hearts will be healed. Oliver Anthony said to Joe Rogan in a recent podcast that Proverbs 4:20 really helped him. Sorry for the long comment but just wanted to say thanks for the hard work putting this video out and God bless you.
Hi Nate! I wanted to let you know that I've been really enjoying your reaction videos. I've watched two with Oliver and one with Tom, and I appreciate how you share personal stories that relate to the music you're reacting to. It's clear that you're doing a great job, and I think you have a bright future in this field. Keep up the good work, and I'll definitely be tuning in for more!
Move out of LA!!! Dog (and cat) owner here… and indeed they give me meaning and a will to keep going. I adopt special needs animals and have to get up every day for them. Otherwise I also survived suicide attempts and addiction… too much of what has become our reality now fogs my brain. Thx for your honesty.
Home does not necessarily mean wanting to die. While the classic description in Christianity of heaven has been often referred to as home (Oliver Anthony is a "new born" Christian), he also speaks lof a time when he, "didn't always feel this way" and home can be a place of safety. Also referring to himself as, "living in a new world with an old soul", wanting to go home can mean returning to a place or time of comfort or when the world made more sense, or even reinstituting the social contract of the American dream that has been annihilated by the rich men north of Richmond. In the sixties we had the likes of Bob Dylan, Jefferson Airplane heralding the coming of the liberal new world order, Oliver Anthony appears in to be one of the first post new world order voices calling out the need to reinstate the social contract that was lost due to the inevitable corruption of those in a government that views themselves as a separate and entitled entity. I am reminded of the words of Benjamin Franklin at the close of the Constitutional Convention 1787, "I agree to this Constitution, with all its Faults, if they are such: because I think a General Government necessary for us, and there is no Form of Government but what may be a Blessing to the People if well administred; and I believe farther that this is likely to be well administred for a Course of Years, and can only end in Despotism as other Forms have done before it, when the People shall become so corrupted as to need Despotic Government, being incapable of any other."
Very very well said, Nate. I agree and can relate on many levels. One question I consider often, and was reminded of while watching your vid, what statement would you make to the “other side” if given the opportunity? Regardless of what “other side”… religion, politics, etc. Ps, Richmond was an ALL TIME classic… must have listened to it 15 times on repeat that first day… thanks for covering this follow up. 💪💪
Nate, you're really reflected in your thoughs! I was pleasantly surprised by that! You really know a LOT that is going on or happening on purpose to us.
im gonna drop this here because maybe this will help some one else feel less alone in the world, I grew up poor and got married at 18 i joined the military at 20 so that me and my wife didnt have to live at home anymore she left me a year ago and ive been lost and contemplated suicide multiple times. This is a shortened version of a very long story just know your not alone.
It's always been this way, I have CPTSD/BPD because my parents were completely consumed by all this bs and their life was never satisfying so they took it out on me. I was raised by narcissistic alcoholic coke heads and it was a nightmare. I've lived under tyranny already and I can't do it again. 😢

I'm so sorry for your loss. Such a difficult decision to make and one made from love as we want to end their suffering. We have three dogs, but lost our Little Bitty (Chihuahua) three years ago. My heart goes out to you.
Sorry to hear about your puppers. Putting dogs down is one the hardest things in life, stays with us forever.
i'm a 52 year old Englishman living in the UK and this song makes me weep every time.
i feel every word.
You asked for another comment so I will reply sir. We've been married 29 years, and are a single income family. First was the military...then I was injured after 13 years. I literally had to have them downgrade my disability just so I could Still work and provide for my wife and kids cause VA pensions are crap.

How did this world get to this point where a guy with a nuclear degree and 35 years of work experience can't make it? I want to go home too. I won't punch my own ticket but I'm waiting desperately on the conductor while praying constantly.

I'm a 62 year old USAF Vet, recently forced to take retirement at the lowest scale. I sit at home with my dogs. I don't know where I'd be if it wasn't for them.

The media here, as usual, has largely ignored Oliver Anthony save for a few vitriolic articles that have popped up here and there, labelling his songs as "right-wing anthems".
Oliver's songs strike a chord with me and others here in Italy because his message goes beyond politics, blindly taking sides, etc. They speak at a deeper level.
I appreciate your analysis and insights and your ability to delve into various topics. Personally, I don't have any issues with the length of your reaction videos: articulating meaningful thoughts requires time.
Keep it up!
This guys got it going on! I love this as a Christian in this crazy world I often think of how much I would love to go home (heaven).
People need to love and be loved...and both God and dogs give you that, unconditionally
Yes I was there!- at the bottom w/ no emotion of any kind.
Then a Spiritual awakening happened - not because of me , it was meeting people that had an almost unbelievable expression of love /heart/ relationship. I could not believe that a heart could do anything but pump blood! In desperation I asked God to show me what my heart is and how can it be real that HE could change it-show me.
Bam!! HE lite me UP! HE audibly Spoke to me , Changed me ! I’ll never be the same!

Hey Nate, great comments man!!! I'm a former fellow Northwest guy. Lived much of my life just south of you in Portland, OR. Currently living elsewhere and am happy to have left. It simply didn't fit who I was. I love your depth. You do you!!! Have hit the like and sub. Button. Looking forward to hearing more from you. Many blessings to you.

I think most zoomers are on board with this crap, it only takes two generations of indoctrination to completely erase history or certain undesirables.
The verse is a quote from Jesus. The verse he read before the concert was Psalms 37. There's a video now of him reading the last chapter of the Revelation
Oh, Hi Ren is a work of art. You gotta see it, it's amazing.
I had a dog for almost 15 years and she had to pass over the rainbow bridge back in February of 2021 - I also lost my mother in law and aunt that year as well let alone getting COVID for the 2nd time. I went to get another dog from the same breeder who said she would would be in the same blood line as my first dog - which was important to me and she is now a little over 2 years old. She is such a great company to my husband and I - both of us are combat veterans so she gives us alot of joy. Dogs or any pet really, love us unconditionally.
When you get my age (in my 50's) you start to look back on the things you've done and ask yourself what have I done so far because I don't know how much time I have left. Its at this point that any of my older relatives will die much quicker to each other and one day I will join them. I just love being alive and being on this Earth but I know I will have a few more dark days. However, faith and family will comfort hard times. Always enjoy the ones around you before they are no longer here.
God bless you
Great episode, keep up w Oliver Anthony!!! He is a game changer!
You called out the "dog lovers" so here I am.
My dog is my wife and my wife is my dog. Living alone with her is a godsend. She's a small "woman", about 14 pounds. She's with me 24/7 and tells me when it's time to go to bed, when it's time to chill in the recliner, and when it's snack time, too.
I'd be lost without her as I'm disabled and need her companionship to remind me to get up and do things.
So, yes, they ARE mankind's best gift from the Almighty.
Good job and Keep the Faith, Bro. That's one thing they can't touch...
Beautiful reaction brother. We are cut from the same cloth. AWAKE Semper Fi

My dog, Atticus, is my life line....unconditional ❤️.
Obviously love Oliver (Chris) Anthony and his music, voice and message! I also love to hear you speak of your higher self and try to raise our vibration despite the appearance of world events currently. Thank you both for your words of wisdom and encouragement!
When I was 16-17 I felt like that everyday I would walk and talk to God. He saved me, and this young man is telling the truth
I love your different interpretations of this song. I never considered that perhaps he wants to go home to the way things were back in the day. I was the last generation of the 90s kids who still rode bikes until the street lights came on, no cell phones or iPads.. we had a Nintendo Entertainment System and we’d play for 1-2 hours and then back out side to the woods, which of course have all been wiped out for more housing. 8 billion people on this planet and the low intelligence people who can’t afford it have the most…statistically. I stopped watching the news for 3 years and I was happier than ever but like you I’ve had to view both sides and make my own theories but it’s definitely had a negative effect on my mental health, but like you said, you just have to keep going. Great review!
Thank you for sharing , Oliver is bringing out the best in all of us !
This is the most amazing artist to come along in a long time.
Matthew 16/26. My favorite verse.
I'm homesick for a place that doesn't exist anymore.
THIS is why most of us like reaction videos... because along with our pets (I'm more of a cat person, though I do love dogs as well), it really helps to hear that others feel the same way we do. And this songs resonates so much with people because we're all just so dang TIRED of the struggle. We're in what so many cultures have called "The End Times," and in so many ways it's very exciting, but first we have to go through the exposure of all the bad things... and all the bad people... and UNITE as a people against them. It's songs like these that are greatly helping that happen.
Hey Nate, found you when watching Oliver Anthony react videos. We are on the same page, I so appreciate your thoughtfulness and how awake you are. I must admit, it was easier before the red pill. There is no going back. We have to come together, care for each other and realize the barriers between us are fake and pushed by an agenda to destroy us. Our gov wants us dead. I will not comply. So grateful for Oliver's music and really glad I found your channel. Keep up the great work, appreciate it
WAY easier before the red pill. haha. Thank you for the kind words and support.
Let's tilt the scale together.
Soon there will be more red pilled people than the rest and we change the future for the better.
Greetings from est Europe.
I appreciate your take on this and the amount of time you put in. I wonder if, perhaps you aren't missing something important from this song. Large portions of this song are a prayer to a person he calls "The good Lord". He ends this with a verse from the Christian Bible. It should be evident that he is prayerfully pursuing the only one who can provide hope in a hopeless time. This is the heart cry of someone who feels completely unmoored from any other source of comfort. He cant return to his earthly home, and must cry out to God himself to provide that which OA has lost and has no way to find apart from divine aid.
I appreciate your analysis, humility, compassion, and vulnerability. It really does help.
Just turned 50. I wanna go home simply means I want to go back in time. Even just 15 or 20 years. 30 or so would be better. No body scanners at the airport, no constant apprehension of your fellow human being - wondering what offense you might perpetrate out of nothing, more music like this across genres pre-autotune, etc. People automatically accuse wanting to go home as wanting to go 'backwards'. Yet, they never lived it and don't realize they have made their own situations far worse now than they ever were before just 20 years ago. I do indeed miss 'home'. 👍
Stay true Oliver Anthony
Really enjoyed your commentary, you peeled many layers off the lyrics. Great job.
With the voice of the archangel
Agree 💯
I love this. Thanks Nate
He speaks the truth. Love his music.
Another thoughtful take. Thank you. As we sort through the madness searching for solutions, critical thinkers and truth tellers are crucial. I do wish that staying informed wasn’t so time consuming. My goodness…. The amount of articles from independent journalists, transcripts, studies, original source materials, & books one must read in concert with the array of interviews, commentary, & podcasts one must watch or to which one must listen, is utterly ridiculous. It takes hours a day. Checking out is no longer an option if we want to be responsible humans, adults, &/or citizens. . It’s wild, for example, that Jimmy freaking Dore is a resource more accurate & broad in reporting the news than any corporate print or televised news organization. That alone says everything about this era of propagandized messaging across the board. The fact that 1-2K people died in Maui 2 weeks ago & MSM will only cover Trump’s mugshot & their fear that he will destroy democracy as we know it is insanity at the highest level. Sigh… sorry. I went all venty. The brevity of OA’s song is a better way to communicate but I’m not him:-) Thanks again! Looking forward to hearing more from you.
Hi Nate, just wanted to let you know that I have watched a ton of reaction videos and your insight and clarity of thought is well and above most youtube reactors. Like you, I am a huge Oliver Anthony fan and find his music and words to be both inspiring and thought provoking. Keep on doing the good work that you do. And thank you!
I really enjoy listening to you and your comments on Oliver Anthony’s song. You’re very wise and the right person for this. Thank you.
So much truth in what you say! Greetings from Poland 🥰
I just saw your first reaction to Oliver Anthony. Your reaction was great. Keep it up. You're awesome.
I watched both reactions and thank you for your kind words and opinions
Great channel, so glad I stumbled into it, keep up the good work
Love my dogs! God and my dogs are absolutely the best things in my life. ❤
Ok you got me! New Sub! My Fur boys and my human ones too! I have help my Fur family cross over and with anguish I said never again! Especially Bub! I still hurt even though it was 7 years ago and some! 2016 sucked bc I also cared for my Mom at home until the end! Whew! Sorry 😮 your words moved me deeply! I now have 3 Fur boys and Bc Bub’s wanted me to one is a rescue and 2 from pups. One is watching me bc yea I’m 😢. He is also a JR 😂as was Bub’s! Your a great reactionist! ❤
Love your reactions you actually understand what he is talking about not just running by words
Great job with your commentary 💙
Thank you for doing this. Everyone needs more of this. Calm , Rational Waking. Thank you
I’m petting my two dogs watching your video. Bama and Biscuit 😊
Yep dogs, change our lives,good work young man.
Dogs only hurt you one time, when they cross the bridge. Home, when eveybody was still alive.
Shout out from Olympia Washington~ like your takes so far dude👍 can't imagine why you went to LA but whatever, keep the videos coming. The study about prayer and how our intentions are all connected to each other is highlighted in a book called The Field by Lynn McTaggart. Great book
"That's real BLUEGRASS"!!! Apalachion Folk Music!!
Nate, when he says he wants to go home he’s talking about the way it was. First time watching you and I really enjoyed your commentary. Honest
God bless Oliver and i love you reaction ❤️❤️💕😘
I cannot say for sure, but, when people look back many years from now, they may call this man a prophet. He speaks so simply but with a depth that eludes those who think they are educated, deep and experienced. Whatever he is, he is worth protecting and considering the messages he spreads freely to us.
I have two dogs who own me. If not for them, I wouldn't have a reason for waking.
Dog is God spelled backwards 👀🤯😎 unconditional ❤️
Agree with your statement on dogs. We are so lucky to have them.
❤❤❤
I pray it everyday. This world has fell well below what we were meant for . It's a shame that we allow the country to be manipulated by the few that are in power . Revolution is our only hope for survival.
Nice one Nate!👍 Found your channel on your first O.A. reaction/breakdown video. Good stuff. And yes, dogs are the greatest treasures created. I'm not religious so to speak, but I do tend to gravitate towards the stars looking for answers to the endless questions of our existence. In an age where mathematics and science are ignored....most logical, critical thinking peeps are gonna facepalm infinitely🤦♂️
And get called racist,misogynist,transphobic menaces to society.🤣😂🤣😂 thanks for the videos👌
🙌👏 53 y/o white woman struggled with these same issues (pain meds I still need turned into addiction in my 40s) & my daughter kept me going for a long time but she's grown & gone so now my pup (& other people's too since I petsit for people who can't afford to board or pay expensive businesses who offer the service) keep me out of the psych ward! 🙏
I see the line about the land with the man from out of town being a metaphor for the tragedy in Maui HI.
I really appreciate your honest and thoughtful reaction/discussion Sir. I really love this song as a Christian myself. Our cultural problems are very much linked to a abandonment of God. God is using this man to try and reach out to others. The wanting to go home idea stems from CS Lewis who said that man has always longed for something that they cannot find on this Earth. CS Lewis said it is logical to assume that maybe if we don't feel at home then maybe we were made for another world. Christians believe we are just passing through this life to our ultimate home with Jesus Christ. He said a place is being prepared for us in His Father's house. So ultimately, we have a hope grounded in God's creation and the Bible that things will get better and our sinful hearts will be healed. Oliver Anthony said to Joe Rogan in a recent podcast that Proverbs 4:20 really helped him. Sorry for the long comment but just wanted to say thanks for the hard work putting this video out and God bless you.
Wow, auper insightful analysis. Well done!
Dog spelled backwards is GOD… great reaction
This is a great song!!!
Upton Sinclair - 'It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.'
Hi Nate! I wanted to let you know that I've been really enjoying your reaction videos. I've watched two with Oliver and one with Tom, and I appreciate how you share personal stories that relate to the music you're reacting to. It's clear that you're doing a great job, and I think you have a bright future in this field. Keep up the good work, and I'll definitely be tuning in for more!
ADI certified (assistance dog international) thru the VA and K9's for warriors...are great org.
Mark and Matthew are the verses.
Good, bad, or indifferent we are the sum total of our life's experiences. Change one you alter the whole.
Oliver spits the truth, so do you my friend.
Move out of LA!!! Dog (and cat) owner here… and indeed they give me meaning and a will to keep going. I adopt special needs animals and have to get up every day for them. Otherwise I also survived suicide attempts and addiction… too much of what has become our reality now fogs my brain. Thx for your honesty.
Home does not necessarily mean wanting to die. While the classic description in Christianity of heaven has been often referred to as home (Oliver Anthony is a "new born" Christian), he also speaks lof a time when he, "didn't always feel this way" and home can be a place of safety. Also referring to himself as, "living in a new world with an old soul", wanting to go home can mean returning to a place or time of comfort or when the world made more sense, or even reinstituting the social contract of the American dream that has been annihilated by the rich men north of Richmond. In the sixties we had the likes of Bob Dylan, Jefferson Airplane heralding the coming of the liberal new world order, Oliver Anthony appears in to be one of the first post new world order voices calling out the need to reinstate the social contract that was lost due to the inevitable corruption of those in a government that views themselves as a separate and entitled entity.
I am reminded of the words of Benjamin Franklin at the close of the Constitutional Convention 1787, "I agree to this Constitution, with all its Faults, if they are such: because I think a General Government necessary for us, and there is no Form of Government but what may be a Blessing to the People if well administred; and I believe farther that this is likely to be well administred for a Course of Years, and can only end in Despotism as other Forms have done before it, when the People shall become so corrupted as to need Despotic Government, being incapable of any other."
You right God bless you
The only one more faithful than dogs is God!
Very very well said, Nate. I agree and can relate on many levels. One question I consider often, and was reminded of while watching your vid, what statement would you make to the “other side” if given the opportunity? Regardless of what “other side”… religion, politics, etc. Ps, Richmond was an ALL TIME classic… must have listened to it 15 times on repeat that first day… thanks for covering this follow up. 💪💪
Thanks brotha! Appreciate you checking it out and showing the love. And what I would say might get me banned again haha.
Nice one Nate, happy to incident on another awake, articulate and honest brother. Greetings from South Africa.
Nate, you're really reflected in your thoughs! I was pleasantly surprised by that! You really know a LOT that is going on or happening on purpose to us.
Hi, Nate. NorCal here. Single, childless cat lady x 5 here. Now that I’m out of the fire, I’m back watching.
Hey Nate 👋 We have 7 and all are Rescues 🥰
im gonna drop this here because maybe this will help some one else feel less alone in the world, I grew up poor and got married at 18 i joined the military at 20 so that me and my wife didnt have to live at home anymore she left me a year ago and ive been lost and contemplated suicide multiple times. This is a shortened version of a very long story just know your not alone.
I don't think longing to go home always means that you want death.
It's always been this way, I have CPTSD/BPD because my parents were completely consumed by all this bs and their life was never satisfying so they took it out on me. I was raised by narcissistic alcoholic coke heads and it was a nightmare. I've lived under tyranny already and I can't do it again. 😢
It might be tough to hear but listen to Nolan Taylor's "68".
Please heed the warning but it might be helpful. It's a great but gut-wrenching song.
@@Uphold-your-Rights it's giving me chills. another great artist coming from radiowv. Thank you for sharing this ❤
@josoffat7649 Nolan is really good. He has a pretty good list of songs to hear. Glad I could share.
To be clear he’s talking about heaven
I think you're spot-on with your perspective😊
Mark 8:36 👍
I’ve just subscribed to your TH-cam channel, to your podcast and Rumble. You are amazing. So… will you do more music reactions on TH-cam???
With what you were talking about, you should check out his old song "VCR Kid"
