My 21 year old brother passed away last night and hidden deep in his notes he had requested if something were to happen to him to play this song. I wish we’d of found you together but he loved your music, I’m a listener for life
Grew up listening to old ass blue grass and country. Didn't like it at the time, now it's the measure that I stack all music against. This, this is more worthy than 99.99% of "country" I'm unlucky enough to hear. 10/10 and that's not enough praise.
Disney board meeting: sir Star wars isn't going as well as we hoped turns out it can be ruined. No worries you blathering idiot we'll make the best Disney princess of all, mullets and mustaches that's our secret. Sir... I said a Disney princess with a mullet in a mustache, now do it damn it.
Once in a while TH-cam throws something like this up, and suddenly I become aware of a huge world out there, treasures like this that I’m still yet to discover.
Brent Moore Couldn’t agree more! I don’t think they’ll do an entire album, but I’d love to see some more collabs between Colter and Tyler. Fraulein is one of my favorite songs haha
John Jacob Jingle Heimer Schmitt not all culture. Take folk music for example. Each country has its own distinct style of folk music. Neighbouring countries may have similar styles and instruments but one of them had to be the first to do it. It can’t have just materialised from thin air.
Me the alt centrist diverse but not richer. A lot of white people don’t know what type of European they are, black people in america have a separate culture from their ancestors, only immigrants or 1-2nd gens keep their culture. America has a weak ass culture, but at the same time a strong culture for a country less than 250 years old.
@John Jacob Jingle Heimer Schmitt european culture is american culture. Cowboy, western culture is american culture. I wouldn't say that is stolen, if they are white
Nick has a legendary talent that is all but almost gone. This music is something that Americans will long for when it is gone. The American music that has died will leave a MASSIVE void in many crying souls.
My infant daughter gets a big pouty lip and Precious Moments eyes when I sing along to this song. You are striking chords in the heart of a baby raised far from her hillbilly mother's homeland 💜
I've always said, there is no way I will ever like country. Not that it's bad music, it's just never been my flavor.... Then this dude with a mullet and a shady stash comes along and completely opens up a whole new world of music. Thanks!
Coming back a couple years later to say that this song and this recording in particular changed my life, no exaggeration. Pure magic here, im incredibly grateful
Aye I’m with you there pal, I’m a few thousand miles away from where he’s singing of yet the fondness for home I hear reminds me of my own. Belter stuff
Song brings me back to last summer, riding my motorcycle in the middle of no where. Pulling up to random spots and hanging out in the grass until I feel like leaving, talking ti random locals and riding where ever. Thank you Nick for music like this
I can tell this man truly understands music he sings through the pain and loneliness and brings himself to happiness as well as others I hope to meet him someday
I have this downloaded on my phone, and whenever I used to go up to work, the road was next to a ravine with a creek running down the mountain through it, I would always put this on and sing it to my fullest. During the summertime, when the leaves are just the right amount of green, I think of that and this song and smile till my face can't take it anymore. Thanks Nick!
Some friends in New Orleans took me to a gig where Nick was playing. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. Such charm, charisma, talent, and feeling. A true American hero.
Nick I've been whistling for many years now just as a hobby but you have inspired me to learn and practice just that much more! Thank you brother! I love you music! I'll listen forever
Oh man if you don't know Colter Wall yet you gotta look into him. Bob Fudge, Ballad of a Law Abiding Sophisticate, and Transcendent Ramblin Railroad Blues are some pretty good starting points, gives you a good feel for his music. Lots of honky tonk and darker stuff like Johnny Cash and Marty Robins
I can remember my Uncle Neal calling up the hogs. He had a whole long holler he'd do. The sows would come running. He and my Grandpa used to get drunk and yodel. This singer got me all misty eyed. I'd love to hear him yodel.
Porch lights, on distant ridges dark Rock lined valleys singing with every bark From flat water bottom to wind blown timber tall It's my land Of snakes and waterfalls 16 score and 7 years my blood's called home To all the crimson clay and the old roads that I roam This place might be curse'd after all But its my land, of snakes and waterfalls And I know That when a distant shore's before me Oh how my poor heart aches For every hollow that I forsake I've been trying to run since I could crawl But I'm bound To snakes and waterfalls And I know That when a distant shore's before me Oh how my poor heart aches For every hollow that I forsake Blue cave water and canebrakes forever call Me on home to snakes and waterfalls
When I was a young'n I used to listen to people like Hank Snow, Marvin Rainwater, Eddy Arnold, Bob Wills, Kitty Wells, Patsy Cline and many others. It's refreshing to hear new artists bring a new twist to the old, traditional sounds. Wonderful stuff!
I lived in NE Arkansas for 6 months about 5 years ago. I wasn't making much money, but I found some good people, and we spent most of our time hiking and swimming. It was some good times.
Oh my goodness I just found you on the Western AF channel. I LOVE your music and style. I tried to click the like button halfway through and then realized I had already clicked it when I heard the first few notes! Subscribed ✅ Keep singing!❤
Bigfooting music! Had this tune stuck in my head the entire trip in the middle of nowhere camping in humbolt. Everytime I hear it, it takes me to being there. My land, of snakes and waterfalls.
This song becomes more relevant as the world becomes more consumed by conflict. All land is stolen and everyone is a victim but we must not harden our hearts. Unconditional forgiveness is what we must give.
In Kentucky fishing at the creek drinking when came across this . Hell yeah , always will belong next to snakes and waterfalls .. maybe a weed field or two also
I'm crying watching this. I'm physically/ mentally exhausted from the grind of work + school. I live alone and sometimes I feel like I don't have the energy to keep going. But it's music like this that gives me life again. Thank you for this, the peace and stillness. I'ma o glad I found your music sir 🤍
I listen to this song on spotify, almost every day, and I love it, but I wish THIS version was on spotify. Just his voice and a guitar. Such a great song, and musician.
He looks just like my dad, he passed away almost 4 years ago, I watch this and see my dad's face, almost brings a year to my eye. Thank you for helping me never forget his face.
When he whistles better than you can .. sing ..... Panty dropper fursure . We need more of your kind . Fellow musician saying Keep it up and live it up before you get old . ✝️🙏🤠
When he went oooooOOOOoooOOoOOOOoooooo I felt that
Shit you ain't kiddin!
🥰🥰🥰
Sounded liked a fiddle fr
Actually brought a tear to my eye

I am deeply drunk and this truly speaks to me

My 21 year old brother passed away last night and hidden deep in his notes he had requested if something were to happen to him to play this song. I wish we’d of found you together but he loved your music, I’m a listener for life
Love and peace brother ❤️
Hope you’re doing ok ❤️

Love brother
Oh God bless any music that doesn’t sound like modern country
Hahaha! Amen!!!!
Or rap
Amen Brother. Charley Crockett, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, and Nick and real deal!
Ur just thinkin of radio country. Folk is the past, present and future.
@@Eagle9567 right? People need to broaden their selections and stop listening to the Top Billboard Bullshit.

He whistles like a Disney princess. And he's the best Disney princess of all times
LMFAO 😂😹
Bhahahahahahaha!!!! Lovely, but hella manly and attractive all at the same time.
ha ha ha ha
Disney board meeting: sir Star wars isn't going as well as we hoped turns out it can be ruined.
No worries you blathering idiot we'll make the best Disney princess of all, mullets and mustaches that's our secret.
Sir...
I said a Disney princess with a mullet in a mustache, now do it damn it.
Not what I was expecting! What a talent!
The dog is like “Yeah......I take him along on hikes for the entertainment....he’s a pretty good boy”.
🥰
I wanna be that dog. Just chillin and then hearing toons
Legit thought it was a bear at first haha
Meaningless milk, That dog is living the dream
Jeremy Lavender same lmao
Once in a while TH-cam throws something like this up, and suddenly I become aware of a huge world out there, treasures like this that I’m still yet to discover.
I agree
Y'all come on down to Arkansas, ya hear?
An t mad at it
I feel the same way but then I think... but they would probably not like me being gay , so I calm down
@@latenightcake5881 nobody cares if you're gay bruh.
Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, he started whistling
“When he whistled, I felt that.” -A Good Boy
Only thing missing is that vinyl crackle.
Casey camodown no lies here
Casey camodown
You are spectacularly correct.
However, this right here sounded great anyhow.
Lol this comment literally gave me chills. No bullshit.
Came down here to make that exact comment.. I was late but thanks tho!
Straight up
Mullet, moustache, badass dog, shit kicker boots with the mudflaps. This dude rocks
Mud flaps, my dude, yes! Lmao
what boots is he wearing?
@@ethanlowe1845 look like walmart brahmas. Could be wrong
It’s actually a brush guard so sticks don’t get caught up in the laces and they look like Carolina boots
❤
Nick and Colter Wall have like complete opposite voices, but I just can’t help thinking that they’d make something special together
They need a duet album, just like colter and Tyler's needs one!
Tyler childers.. sorry auto correct
Brent Moore Couldn’t agree more! I don’t think they’ll do an entire album, but I’d love to see some more collabs between Colter and Tyler. Fraulein is one of my favorite songs haha
xNYRmike my exact thoughts!
Nick and Colter, pay heed. The people have spoken, you can’t deny our wishes... All uh, 72 of us 😂
I’m the Music Director for a small radio station in Texas. We’ll be playing this regularly for a little while ❤️
From Texas much love and respect
What’s the station? Texan here.
his song Rather Low slaps, son
Texas♡ Station pls
Good call!
Appalachian opera!!! I completely love everything about this
I hope everybody, including this guy, knows that when people say “America has no culture” you can point them here
Who on earth says that shit there is no place richer or diverse in culture

Give this man a NPR Tiny Desk concert!! Nick you certainly gained a fan in me! LOVE this track!
If I ever hop a train I hope this dude is singing in the boxcar
HAhahahahahha
Ahahhahaha! Dude!!!!
hahaha fuck ya man i'm with u homie!
He's off trains and making money now.
You cant hear shit in a boxcar
This dude so good even the birds and crickets are singin' with him
I absolutely CANNOT stop listening to this
Same, man. It's crazy good.
Seriously...
I can't either it's so addictive!!!!!
I work 14 hr days. Just heard it for the first time today. Had it on repeat for literal hrs. Long enough to learn the words and sing along in my 740B
He reminds me of Snow White, I totally expect small woodland creatures to come out of the bushes, sit on the rock, and start singing along with him.
Snow hwhwhwhwhite was a lady
My daughter said the same thing. Said his whistling reminds her of the birds in Disney cartoons.
this is impeccably accurate and the bro's can't handle it lol
You can't see them but with the Magic of the Herb
Nick can see them !! Tennessee May "Shine"
but Arkansas Hollers are prime for Herbal Remedies ! 🤪
Heard the howl and immediately hit the like lol
nick dash right. Same.
Yup.. great minds
nick dash same lol
Immediately sent it to my Dad
And smashed the like button of course
Nick has a legendary talent that is all but almost gone. This music is something that Americans will long for when it is gone. The American music that has died will leave a MASSIVE void in many crying souls.
After working hard all morning, I sip my espresso and listen to this song and really appreciate life. ✌stay beautiful yall
My infant daughter gets a big pouty lip and Precious Moments eyes when I sing along to this song. You are striking chords in the heart of a baby raised far from her hillbilly mother's homeland 💜
I love this
wish i came across this in the woods
I really want to pet the good boy perched up on that boulder just watching.
His name is Moose!
I've been watching for 2 minutes and didnt even notice the dog sitting up there until o read yiur comment lol
vlad impalay THE GOODEST BOY
I wasn't sure if it was a dog or a bear. Would have been cool as fuck if it was the latter.
Moose died a few weeks ago. He was Nick's best friend for ten years.
When I hit the lotto I will hire this guy to follow 10-20' behind me wherever I go.
Great thought 👍🏻
😂🤣🤣🤣
Yeah! Love it!
Who says he'd want to?
I hope that one day I’ll be hiking through the forest, and find him singing this song.
yepppp
!
I all of a sudden feel like hiking all of Arkansas lol
I've always said, there is no way I will ever like country. Not that it's bad music, it's just never been my flavor.... Then this dude with a mullet and a shady stash comes along and completely opens up a whole new world of music. Thanks!
This western Af is starting to fill the shoes george jones speaks of
This is my 3yr old son’s favorite song. One of my favorites as well.
My 11 month old grandson is mesmerised by this video. He even tries to whistle!
Coming back a couple years later to say that this song and this recording in particular changed my life, no exaggeration. Pure magic here, im incredibly grateful
Yeah Robbie boy!! we love to hear it 💯
Aye I’m with you there pal, I’m a few thousand miles away from where he’s singing of yet the fondness for home I hear reminds me of my own. Belter stuff

Song brings me back to last summer, riding my motorcycle in the middle of no where. Pulling up to random spots and hanging out in the grass until I feel like leaving, talking ti random locals and riding where ever. Thank you Nick for music like this
Man, his howl at the beginning always catches me off guard - too good!
the amount of joy it brings me that people are still making timeless music. this is amazing
I can tell this man truly understands music he sings through the pain and loneliness and brings himself to happiness as well as others I hope to meet him someday

You always get my son to stop crying. So thankyou for that.
I've listened to this song 100 times today. It gets better eveytime.
Nick I've been whistling for many years now just as a hobby but you have inspired me to learn and practice just that much more! Thank you brother! I love you music! I'll listen forever
Never knew why I didn't like modern country til Nick and Billy brought me back. Brings a tear to my eye.

I was born and raised in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas. Currently reside on land that’s been in the family 5 generations. This song speaks to me.
A song that makes life feel like everything could be okay. Its beautiful!
Tunes like this are SO healing. Bless you sir.
Porch lights, on distant ridges dark
Rock lined valleys singing with every bark
From flat water bottom to wind blown timber tall
It's my land
Of snakes and waterfalls
16 score and 7 years my blood's called home
To all the crimson clay and the old roads that I roam
This place might be curse'd after all
But its my land, of snakes and waterfalls
And I know
That when a distant shore's before me
Oh how my poor heart aches
For every hollow that I forsake
I've been trying to run since I could crawl
But I'm bound
To snakes and waterfalls
And I know
That when a distant shore's before me
Oh how my poor heart aches
For every hollow that I forsake
Blue cave water and canebrakes forever call
Me on home to snakes and waterfalls
Beautiful
Thank you
Thanks dawg
His mullet was the clickbait for me , but goddam this mans voice.
100% one bad ass mullet, a bunch of bad ass singing lol
I'm from Arkansas too. It's a special place.
Sometimes I wake up with this song in my mind, and I know it's gonna be a good day.
Dang, Nick is goooooood! STELLAR setting. Give me more sweet, sweetness
Everything about this makes me happy. This is absolute gold.
His voice reminds me of those old country songs. Im so in love😍
god bless ur soul Nick Shoulders
Country music is coming back
The kind of music I miss during this day and age. Beautiful, no question.
I don't think it matters where you come from, we all have this place deep in our hearts

The ghosts of the greats like Jimmie Rodgers and Slim Whitman are smiling down from heaven in joy at this beautiful masterpiece
Holy crap i didn't even know that was his voice til like 10 seconds in
Seriously

I’m good brother. Thx for asking.
I love an artist with a unique voice, it really makes them special and that much better to me
Love that high lonesome sound you get, both singing and whistling!
This is my 28th time watching this today and I'm planning on 28 more before the days out. Be safe out there everyone.
When he whistles better than you can .. sing ..... Panty dropper fursure . We need more of your kind . Fellow musician saying Keep it up and live it up before you get old . ✝️🙏🤠
Every time I hear this song, I am absolutely transported to a distant time and space. You pull me toward you with your voice.
This is so amazing. Such a great voice. I watch this video over and over.
How am I just seeing this now everyone needs to hear this! So talented such an amazing voice and player😁
Nick voice reminds me of old timey music, from way back , before my day even, I like it
Hell yea, we need more voices like this in country/ music. 👍🏻🔥💪🎸
People that dislike true original tunes are exactly what’s wrong with this country. I’m immediately a fan!
