- Time for some rock and roll. What a groovy song, but unfortunate the inspiration for it is not that sweet. This is Lynyrd Skynyrd with That Smell. And this is my reaction to it. I have created a playlist for this group and aim to add more songs to it as we progress. Thank you.

Lyrics:
Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars
Oak tree you're in my way
There's too much coke and too much smoke
Look what's going on inside you
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Angel of darkness is upon you
Stuck a needle in your arm
So take another toke, have a blow for your nose
And one more drink fool, will drown you
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Now they call you Prince Charming
Can't speak a word when you're full of 'ludes
Say you'll be all right come tomorrow
But tomorrow might not be here for you
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Hey, you're a fool, you (2:30)
Go on stick them needles in your arm (2:34)
I know I been there before (2:50)
One little problem that confronts you (3:28)
Got a monkey on your back
Just one more fix, Lord might do the trick
One hell of a price for you to get your kicks
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Hey, you're a fool, you
Go on stick those needles in your arm
You're just a fool, just a fool, just a fool - บันเทิง

The guitar work in this song is out of this world. It's a shame what happened to them.
I was 14 yrs old and my oldest brother took me to the concert 1977 Superbowl of rock Chicago Illinois. That was truly sad...
Best Band Ever! Why did God take them away! I'll never understand.
That drumming is pretty crisp too!
Sweet Jesus! They were just hitting their stride in October of 1977. One of the most tragic “what if?” stories in all of music.
@@grege9019 They worked their asses off thanks to Ronnie pushing hell out of them! He made them the best thru brutal practice. Best Band ever assembled was the result of backbreaking hard tedious work.
God Bless Lynyrd skynyrd!!!
The smell of "Death" surrounds you, it was Skynyrds Anti-Drug song, as well as Saturday Night Special was Anti Gun. That smell was directed also at the band members, Whiskey bottles, brand new car, oak tree your in my way was written about Gary Rossington which had just got a brand new car and got drunk and stoned and struck an oak tree. Ronnie knew the band as well as himself had to clean up, the drinking was the worse, but then the drugs came to play as well. He had hired his best freind to travel with them, to keep them from useing so much. Van Zant said in an interview he hated guns to, because he had been shot. The anti drug message of the 70s was done by many bands, Neil Youngs The Needle and the Damage done, Eagles Hotel California, Jefferson Airplanes White Rabbit, and many more. The 60s hippies started the drug culture, they are gone, but the drug culture remained, and is the very biggest problem in America today, yet the most denied. Drugs are responsible for almost all of our violent crimes, divorce , single mothers, and has poisioned our society like a virus of addict mentality. Generations of use has genetic malfunctions on the offspring of drug and alcohol abuse, before the 1960s, you never seen kids go into highschool and blow away their classmates. The mentality of being "COOL", has become so out of control children are commiting suicide because of being bullied over not making the mark, husbands work 80 hours a week for the almighty dollar because they confuse actually loving their families with providing for them, the mother is either so bored she becomes a scotch and weed addict all day,or of on her career she feels entitled to have, the father is on speed and coke just to keep going, the kids are pampered with a big house full of anything they want, so they get stoned all day and play video games, and this type of child has now been forced into society and thinks they are owed everything. The poor people use and sell, just because thats life. I worked at a movie theatre my sister run back in the late eighties, I always had to go get kids 12 to 17 years old from off of the roof (they got dropped off then met there thinking nobody could see them). They were drunk and stoned, having sex like rabbits, and when the parents were there to pick them up, they got mad at us for calling the cops. THATS addict mentality. This country needs alot more songs like this, drugs are wayyyy to over rated, Sex Drugs and Rock and Roll should be called suicide instead. Like Van zant said, use drugs and your just a fool, just a fool, just a fool!!!!
You are delusional. You act like Boomers invented substance abuse. You’ve heard of Prohibition, right? Opium Wars. Hashish was “invented” in the 1800’s? How many drunks are in the Bible? I accuse you of pontifical bloviation.
Look up Bloviate
Methaqualone AKA Ludes don't mix well with alcohol
I agree with most of this analogy. With many of our families though addiction started must earlier than the sixties with alcoholism.
@@dianaspears571 Alcoholism has been around since man crushed grapes. I am an alcoholic, but have not drank in over 18 years. The drinking thing is very diversified. A person that`s not an actual alcoholic can be a problem drinker, and drink as much as an alcoholic, but whenever they choose, they can simply quit, or slow down to social drinking. Alcohol has always been accepted because there are actually more social responsible drinkers than there are drunks, but most people will argue the differ. Drugs on the other hand, anyone can become addicted to. My point was not until the 1960s did large amounts of our society accept addiction as cool. Drug addiction was around in the 17 and 1800s but was NOT accepted as a norm in society. By the 1970s, even though people didnt agree, they turned their heads and let it happen. It destroyed the country....
They were talking about the smell of death. Band member Gary Rossington guitarist (long dark curly hair)was drunk and he crashed his new car into a tree.
Yeah I had to go to Wikipedia to find that afterwards and also obtain the lyrics. Thank you.
Ironically, Gary is the one still alive.
@Cat Cassie, Gary had taken a couple of Quaaludes when he had that wreck too.
@@GBeret83 I remember the Bass player changed his hat for every song back in '77
@@stevenmarcinkowski8577 , The late, great Leon Wilkeson. Effectionately known by his bandmates and friends as the "mad hatter."
Ah, the old qualude (ludes) one step forward, two steps back. The 70s drug scene.
Ludes were the thing back in the day. My friends told me I was at many concerts but I have no memory of them.
Rorer 714
I remember Ludes and when they stopped making them in 82.
@@stevenmarcinkowski8577 Yes sir .lol
And the Lemon 714s @@stevenmarcinkowski8577
It’s a true story
Actually your getting 3 guitar leads the magic of Skynyrd none their equal. RIP gentleman 🙏♥️
Not just a tree, Gary in his brand new Ford Torino was with his girlfriend and driving while he was wasted. He took out a telephone pole, an oak tree, AND a house. Allen Collins was also in a major crash, same circumstances. Ronnie wasn't happy, they lost a lot of tour dates.
Those days are gone when we had true musicians.
My all time favorite band.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is the granddaddy of Southern Rock.
One of many outstanding Southern Rock bands from Jacksonville, Florida. The others being The Allman Brothers Band, Blackfoot, .38 Special and Molly Hatchet.
Seen you on other reaction channels lol
You forgot the group the ' outlaws " green grass and high tides and more
If your backup singers are belting out “Hell, yeah”…
Lynyrd Skynyrd had possibly the best guitar section of any group that I can remember. It's almost like they had three lead guitars.
Great reaction!
Reaction "t for texas" live 1977 Absury Park , is amazing.
Saw them twice in 1976, they were that good.
The best group and music from my generation
My favorite Skynyrd song. That tone...
The smell of death surrounds you. I knew the singer, Ronnie Van Zant. 3 days after this album was released in 1977, he, Steve Gaines guitar, Cassie Gaines background singer and Dean Kilpatrick assistant road manager were killed in an airplane crash Oct. 20 1977. Lynyrd Skynyrd continues on today with Ronnies brother Johnny singing. I think they should have renamed the band as the previous Skynyrd WAS Ronnie's band and he did most of the songwriting. I recommend the song "I know a Little" from their last album Street Survivors.
I agree they should have tweaked the name to show respect to the Hall of Fame line-up.
Like the Jefferson Airplane became the Jefferson Starship. The Grateful Dead became just 'the Dead'.
I think I could have respected the new band more. But I cringe when I hear someone say that they just saw 'Lynyrd Skynyrd' last week!
"Can't speak a word when you're full of Ludes !!!!" Remember the 714's Skynyrd Nation???
Brother Gary
The saying” The Smell of death surrounds you” was a phrase in the 70’s. This is not a party song, it’s a warning to all, and especially his band mates
There's a lyric that I think was funny and very cleverly used . It's at the beginning. Its says ,
" Oak tree here in my way ". Lol. As if it walked right out in front of Gary Rossington.
The smell of death surrounds you. STAYING WASTED. 3 LEAD GUITARIST, BASSIST, PIANIST, DRUMMER, AND LEAD SINGER.
The Needle And The Spoon and That Smell are both 70's style interventions, courtesy of singer/songwriter Ronnie Van Zant!
GREAT SONG, DEFINITELY A TUNE THAT COULD BE PLAYED MULTI TIMES AND STICK IN THE HEAD. AWESOME REACTION. SO COOL YOU WERE GETTING INTO IT! ✌🎶👩🎤
The genius of this song was brought about by the lead guitarist Gary Rossington crashing while high into a tree and caused their tour to start late. I consider this in their top 3 of all songs. Watch this live on a dvd and you will see greatness.
Yeah I loved both your Lynyrd Skynyrd reactions a lot, i enjoy how they play all instruments and melt those sounds into the song! Amazing music 👌 I wasnt sure about the meaning of the title,but yeah enjoyed the music itself a lot! Second round listening 🙌 just like you said. 😉👍🎵
The smell of the decay of one’s soul.
NICELY DONE. ONE OF GUITARIST GOT A NEW CAR GOT HAMMERED WRECKED THIS CAR INTO A OAK TREE. THE LEAD SINGER WAS SINGING ABOUT HIM. IRONICALLY BOTH THESE TWO WERE KILLED IN A PLANE CRASH WITH A BACKUP SINGER... "THAT SMELL" GOT EVERYONE'S ATTENTION. "GIVE ME THREE STEPS", "SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL"
Try “Call me the breeze” 🎹 🔥
If you want to see a great cover of That Smell, check out the Lexington Lab Band, from Lexington, Kentucky in the US. They are probably the best cover band out there today. Their cover of this is technically perfect with fantastic musicianship. And their vocalist does a magnificent job. They have about 250+ songs in their catalogue and they are all fantastic performances.
The Charlie Daniels Band - The Devil Went Down to Georgia
(Official Music Video). He was a Southern rock and country legend, and a fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd, he even referenced the group in one of his songs.
Guitarist extraordinaires .That should just about sum their musical abilities up . Gotta love the slamming of guitars back and forth in your ears with headphones on . Love the hell outta that .
The smell of death.
3 guitar's 🎸 and a Bass 🔊.
Their best song!!
Perfect reaction my man!
The smell of danger.
The smell of death in the drug scene. The Oak tree reference is about Gary Rossington having a wreck where he hit a tree.
Smell of death
You got to do Lynyrd Skynyrd "Call Me the Breeze".
I Agree. Also Give Me Three Steps.
I'm here🎸
This song is how alcohol and drugs have destroyed many people and when people are dope sick they don’t bath much and actually smell dead.
I'm old school and the, " Monkey on your back" , means that ( here's something else that's giving you a problem along with everything else that's already giving you shit that you're having a hard time dealing with).
Think about it for a second what a monkey on your back would be like and that's your answer for that lyric. How would an actual monkey react on your back? He would be everywhere, here there, everywhere, all over going crazy spazzing out driving you insane as an addiction would do the same.
EXCELLENT I bought this album the week they died rip
London Wainwright 111
Dead Skunk in the Middle if the Road.
Great reaction.
don't be afraid to pull up lyrics during your reaction- enjoyed your reaction anyway

Emerson Lake and Palmer Pirates Live Montreal 1977. TY.
Best anti drug and alcohol song ever should be played more written by guys that knew
If you like their groovy songs you gotta check out “ I know a little”. Good stuff
It's definitely an anti drug song. The Ballad Of Curtis Lowe is a nice listen to as well from these guys.
The smell of death surrounds you. Anti drug song
check out Call me the breeze , Freebird, gimme three steps the list goes on
🎶❤️🎶❤️
They have like 95% of there songs are top rate live video version are the. Best Ronnie Van Zant the lead singer wanted to sound just like the albums and live they are perfect
Try Saturday Night Special
3 lead guitars
Smoking drugs! They were trying to clean up trying.
Anti-drug song, talking about cocaine, marijuana, heroin, Quaaludes, and alcohol all in one song, oww that smell the smell of death that surrounds you!
That smell is Ronnie's interpretation to put the drugs and the alcohol was doing to his band. What are you saying it is the smell of death is around you.
aint no bad skynyrd , only good and great .check out the muscle shoals recordings where it all began
All the records are good I’ve got every record them and may still go to their concerts his brother Ronnie was killed in the airplane crash along with three others but his brother Johnny took over the lead singing in the group is just as good
It’s really an Anti Dug song, the have So Many songs that are Just like that, Hit after Hit
It's obvious you weren't around in the 1970s or early 80s because any time you were doing drugs or smoking something there was a smell around you and that's what they're talking about who that smell around you.
THE SMELL OF
'DEATH NOT THIS.
Drugs are bad... 🙂. Taking about a fellow band member....
Great review. Love watching you interpret lyrics too. Which gave me an idea. I would really enjoy your reaction to Puscifers song potions.. their lyrics are deep and the music has a unique flavor. Not sure if your already familiar with them.. here is a link to a cool video of it:
th-cam.com/video/gLvCVBSmdKI/w-d-xo.html
Hi Hap! Just reported another porno post in the comments. That Smell I’d think they were talking about marijuana. With all the other references to drugs. Never was a Skynyrnd fan. I did enjoy the music itself not the lyrics
You got it!!! But I didn't want to say it on the video. TH-cam could take it down... even the slightest mention.
HAP3SPEAKZ Got it! Love you 😘
Smell of mess all around you
The drugs one guitar player would light up smell is drugs needles in your arm even though their pilot on plane no drugs of any kind the car at the beginning is one of their guitar players got in a bad car accident oak tree it paralyzed him from the waist down he was behind their sound. Several of the original members they grew up together and they kept adding as Ronnie saw fit. They were a band of the late 60's until 1977 . They loved drugs and alcohol. I've read stories when their manager would try to book a room for them they were told no to. They were known for messing the rooms. Enjoy listening to your channel. I'm new to this so I'm not sure how everything works. Simple Man Ronnie's mom asked him to write for her.
Two different accidents. This was about Gary's accident, I think it was in 1976. Allen's accident was in 1986, well after the plane crash.
