Can’t wait to see what the official music video for this looks like. He recorded scenes on our street, 10 houses down from me. Ended up meeting him. He was super nice and signed all the items the neighbor kids brought out to him haha 😂
Hello Shannon 👋, this is Dustin Lynch mom. Thanks for the Like and comments❤️ over my son’s post, how long have you been a fan of my son, have you been careful about imposters and Intruders claiming to be mine and my son
Some of y’all with these comments “He stole that song”. “Gonna get sued” He obviously got permission. Maybe he loved the original so much he wanted to bring it back and change the lyrics to sing about the things he loves
Not so mention I'm pretty sure 99% of the people posting that crap don't know that Uncle Kracker's version was itself a cover, but he never gets criticized. Dobie Grey's version which made it famous was a cover. The original was by Mike Berry was back in 1972. The song was written by Mentor Williams, who received a songwriting credit for this song. This song has been covered many times. People are just idiots and don't seem to comprehend what a cover version is.

They aren’t hiding it was sampled from Dobie Gray’s song written by Mentour Williams, who is credited on the song. That song was also covered by Uncle Kracker. It’s a popular tune big dog.
this is not a sample. its a direct rip off. from soup to nuts. there isn't any differentiation in any stanza of the song. dobie would sue if he was alive. haha. still pretty good either way.
Maybe it's been said, but I can't read all the comments... love the reinterpretation, bet the originals, and dozens of covers will see a nice uptick in hits, I mean streams. My only critique, and it's for this version of the song only, is that I was expecting Ms. Merlo to have a slightly bigger part... it says "featuring" Madeline... but she was barely hearable for most of it, and give her a couple lines, well, words, all to herself? Love ya Mr. Lynch but, c'mon... as Supertramp said... Give A Little Bit... more to the artists who are so gracious as to join you with this fun remake.✌🏼🇨🇦
These comments are hilarious. Of course he got permission to use Drift Away. You are not a special snowflake that realized it sounded like an Uncle Kracker song (who also covered it and got permission).
She was dressed to kill, I was in my boots So I had to pay for the uptown talk, yeah But we talked for a while in a corner booth Before closing time, she caught me by surprise She said, gimme a dirt road, the windows down Wanna get lost on the edge of town In your Chevrolet She said, gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn If you want a country girl, you just found one Let's step away, yeah In your Chevrolet I think I fell in love right then and there We were at the door before the end of the song I said, where to? She said, I don't care Just don't take me home, what you waiting on? Just gimme a dirt road, the windows down Wanna get lost on the edge of town In your Chevrolet She said, gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn If you want a country girl, you just found one Let's step away, yeah In your Chevrolet That's right In your Chevrolet Lord knows I been praying for the day A girl like her would say Just gimme a dirt road, the windows down Wanna get lost on the edge of town In your Chevrolet (in your Chevrolet) She said gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn If you want a country girl, you just found one Let's step away (let's step away) In your Chevrolet She said, gimme a dirt road, the windows down Wanna get lost on the edge of town In your Chevrolet Gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn If you want a country girl, you just found one Let's step away (step away) In your Chevrolet Oh, in your Chevrolet In your Chevrolet
Agree that the tune is ripped off to different words. I thinks the words would better to a different tune...I miss singing blindly to the tune give me the beat boys that frees Mt soul wanna get lost in the rock and roll and slip away...bow I could barely remember the words I was trying to type....cause of slip away in a Chevrolet...

Yes if you did any research before commenting on this you would have know the backstory and the fact that they asked to use the same song. That was the point. They wanted to do a more country version.
Pretty sad these young guys can’t even write their own music. This guy has stolen the music from “drift away” just put different lyrics over it. Hope he gets sued.
Who writes their own music anyways…most songs are written for a singer not the other way around. The popular artist aren’t writing their own music aside from Dr. Taylor Swift.
@@iammattodonnell I wonder who collects money on that, since Mentor has "drifted away". I guess his heirs. Interesting that Mentor's older brother has written a lot of hit songs.
Wow talk about plagiarizing the music from an old song,Dustin should be ashamed of himself we got no one that's creative anymore in the music business.
One Of My Favorite Song I Love Listening To Dustin Sing His Song’s
Love all versions of this song. From the original, to Uncle Kracker, and now this gem. Thanks Dustin for adding to the legend❤
This is the only version of this song. This is Chevrolet by Dustin Lynch. No artist before has put out this song!
@@AnthonyLincoln-sg1pyDrift Away by Dobie Gray
@@AnthonyLincoln-sg1pyChevrolet is a remake of the original "Drift Away."
Same melody, just different lyrics.
Honestly, growing up on old music and this is great! It's a new take on an old classic for us kids who's parents played us these songs 👏
Dustin is great guy and great country singer
Can’t wait to see what the official music video for this looks like. He recorded scenes on our street, 10 houses down from me. Ended up meeting him. He was super nice and signed all the items the neighbor kids brought out to him haha 😂
Love you Dustin Lynch
Thanks for the love and support ❤❤

@@st.jimmy0244 I had forgotten that Doby Gray was a cover too - Fun fact
The hardest part of business is minding there own, an the haters are prolly just jealous as hell
Technically if he changes the lyrics it's his
@@st.jimmy0244 I would mind less if it was a cover and not just some shit country lyrics thrown over such a good melody.
It started and I was instantly like damn this is the same beat as Drift Away. Then chorus hit and I realized that was the point 😂
Amen and Hallelujah
Love it Dustin be safe my friend ❤️♥️
Have been addicted to the original song with Jelly
I Bless your generosity, my highest gratitude and appreciation for all the love and support you have been showing me and my music, I’m so grateful 💕🙏💕

Great song just pray no one comes back and says it reminds them of another song written many years ago!

@@paulm8908you know I was thinking it sounded like another song.... Duh
I'm Ford girl. But I absolutely love this song.❤😊
Drift away
It’s so hard not to sing the real words despite loving this new version. My brain can’t undo the uncle kracker lyrics. They’re so ingrained 😂
What's the name of the original???
Sweet
Very nice
“Drift away” by Dobie Gray
Has Dustin Lynch credited Dobie Gray for the tune? It's exactly the same tune
@@geoffreymilke5176 It was actually written by Mentor Williams.
Großartig 👍 🤝
❤❤❤
It’s so hard not to sing the uncle kracker lyrics despite loving this new version.
I still like the old version ! But this one is catchy but it’s heavily produced !?
Take a shot every time he says Chevrolet

I'm sure they have to have permission from the original..DOBIE GRAY.THEY DID AN AMAZING JOB
It was actually written by Mentor Williams.
❤❤😊😊😮😮#Amen#. I drive One 🕐🕜. I'm in #Love# 💕 💕 with this song ❣️😍❣️😍#Amen#.
Would have loved to hear more of Madeline’s voice.
I hear ya
What is her last name?
@@debbieelert3118 Merlo. Look up Madeline Merlo
@@debbieelert3118Merlo. She is Canadian and has a hit in their current Country chart.
What did Ice say," just sampling"😅

Tell 'em...people are so mean though!
She was dressed to kill, I was in my boots
So I had to pay for the uptown talk, yeah
But we talked for a while in a corner booth
Before closing time, she caught me by surprise
She said, gimme a dirt road, the windows down
Wanna get lost on the edge of town
In your Chevrolet
She said, gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn
If you want a country girl, you just found one
Let's step away, yeah
In your Chevrolet
I think I fell in love right then and there
We were at the door before the end of the song
I said, where to? She said, I don't care
Just don't take me home, what you waiting on?
Just gimme a dirt road, the windows down
Wanna get lost on the edge of town
In your Chevrolet
She said, gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn
If you want a country girl, you just found one
Let's step away, yeah
In your Chevrolet
That's right
In your Chevrolet
Lord knows I been praying for the day
A girl like her would say
Just gimme a dirt road, the windows down
Wanna get lost on the edge of town
In your Chevrolet (in your Chevrolet)
She said gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn
If you want a country girl, you just found one
Let's step away (let's step away)
In your Chevrolet
She said, gimme a dirt road, the windows down
Wanna get lost on the edge of town
In your Chevrolet
Gimme a six pack, some Brooks and Dunn

Let's step away (step away)
In your Chevrolet
Oh, in your Chevrolet
In your Chevrolet
Drift away Dobie Gray
does Madeline Merlo sing the radio edit too background, and you can really hear her lovely voice in the song, why is the female uncredited
Jell roll Wief love to county music jell
this is drift away isn't it?
Yes!
dobey gray would sue for rights if he was still living. haha.
Someone surrounding him might. Others have sued for way less familiarity
John Henry Kurtz
Oh 👀 Maddie 🫶🏼
He kinda favors Billy ironically 😂
He should have had her sing the chorus as the chorus is the female speaking.
Agree that the tune is ripped off to different words. I thinks the words would better to a different tune...I miss singing blindly to the tune give me the beat boys that frees Mt soul wanna get lost in the rock and roll and slip away...bow I could barely remember the words I was trying to type....cause of slip away in a Chevrolet...

its like a cover or something.
🕵️🕵️🤔🥢
This old remake is pretty good! I just don’t really like the woman’s voice in this…
It’s literally a copy from drift away by uncle kracker🤦🏻♂️
Yes if you did any research before commenting on this you would have know the backstory and the fact that they asked to use the same song. That was the point. They wanted to do a more country version.
Lmao, Uncle Kracker's version is a cover!! But you are right about the melody. Which makes these lyrics so much more amazing!!
Drift away is not by uncle kracker so 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ to you 😂
@@ryanwojciechowski9815 It was actually written by Mentor Williams.
Long time country fan. But........no.
Pretty sad these young guys can’t even write their own music. This guy has stolen the music from “drift away” just put different lyrics over it. Hope he gets sued.
Ah. Well. Mentor Williams (the writer of Drift Away) has publishing credit on the song, so it’s all legal and clean.
ur mentlaly ill

Not authentic, something Beyonce would do. I said it.
