#Brooksanddunn #reaction Rapper FIRST time EVER hearing Brooks & Dunn - Boot Scootin' Boogie! Join this channel to get access to perks: / @blackpegasusraps
Okay you guys. I know a Honky Tonk is a small country bar but my question is. Where did the word Honky and Honky Tonk come from. Like what was its inception and why hahaha. HBO, Help a brotha out!! 😆
Idk any origins but in my head... honkey was a bad word and honky tonk was a bar. I never really equated the two. But maybe that's just me and my white niave self.
I won't pretend to know anything. But Stephen King writes it as some kind of equivalent to 'cracker'. Like ... a black person calls white guys 'honky mofas' constantly. Won't pretend he's using it 'right' either
Yep, it’s a line dance and a honky tonk is a country bar with a live country band and a wooden dance floor!!!!! This was such a HUGE song when it came out!!!! Brooks & Dunn were just great and Ronnie’s vocals!!!!!!!!!
A lot of people line dance to that but it's actually the Cotton-Eyed Joe doing in a circle with a group a bunch of couples in a circle doing the cotton eyed Joe's what it really is... Or the same thing somewhat of a circle moving around the dance floor doing the Texas two-step
@@JenniferLott-i4u YES...BUT IT'S REALLY A DANCE CALLED THE COTTON EYED JOE...WHERE COUPLE WOULD GET IN A CIRCLE AND DANCE HEEL, TOE, DOSEY DOE... IT'S CALLED SQUARE DANCING WHICH WAS THE ONLY DANCING BACK YEARS AGO....BUT IT WAS LOTS OF FUN.. THEY ALSO WORE COSTUMES AND COMPETED AFTER A WHILE...THE LINE DANCE CAME SEVERAL YEARS LATER....😊
@@karenking5357 When I was in high school, we learned Square Dancing in PE. Imagine what me, the skinny guy who was so scared to talk to girls went thru, I would almost have panic attacks. Then I grew up, fell in love with a woman who loved square dancing, and up until the Muscular Dystrophy crippled me, I loved to go to the Honky Tonks to dance and meet women
Yep that’s the origins of the phrase. Since the mid 1900s it’s generally used to describe a country dive bar, usually including live music and a dance floor.
Wow! Thank you! Some of my best times were spent at TAMU during my residencies line dancing and two stepping! Total nostalgia! I wish we could go there!
My Maria is also one of my favorites. Recorded by BW (Buckwheat) Stevenson in 1973, Brooks & Dunn did a great cover, but if you are not familiar with BW Stevenson, go listen to the original.
@janebarnett865 I see I am not the only one old enough to remember the original. I always liked it when I was a young girl, and was pleasantly surprised the first time I heard B & D cover.
@@reneeeiier4818 @janebarnett865 I just listened to the original and liked it as well. B&D's version is a lot like the original. I think they did it justice. ✌️&❤️
I usually don’t listen to country, but I have a special place in my heart for 90’s country. This was awesome!! Brought back a lot of great memories. 🖤 Garth Brooks, Reba, George Strait, Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, Toby Keith, Trisha Yearwood… the list just goes on. 🖤🎧
90's & early 2000's country is the best. Don't forget Faith Hill, Pam Tillis, Martina McBride, Kenny Chesney, Dixie Chicks, Travis Tritt, The Judds, Trisha Yearwood, Collin Ray. Oh the memories!! ✌️&❤️
When you walked in & this was playing, you knew it was going to be a rocking good time. According to my husband there's nothing like a good pair of cowboy boots for dancing.
90s country is the best! Neon moon, She's not the cheatin kind, My Maria, & Brand new man are just a few of my favs by them! I have a whole list of country songs for u! 😁
Honky Tonk is a country bar, usually with a wood dance floor & sawdust. Yes, it's a line dance! You could find me down here in Houston at Wild West or Texas Tumbleweed on Fiday & Saturday nights for line dancing, 2-steppin, waltzes, polkas, jitterbugs & shake yo thang dancing. All walkes of life came in & had a blast! Check out Neon Moon by Brooks & Dunn!😊
100% Japanese blooded dude here, yes this was a line dance hit! Honky-Tonks are a country bar, usually a wooden dance floor for you guessed it, line dancing! This was THE PARTY song when it was blaring all over the country radio! IT was a GREAT time!
Me too. Grew up in NYC & NJ in the 60s & 70s, but always liked country music. I guess I got it from my mom, the daughter of Italian immigrants. who grew up in NYC in the 30s, 40s & 50s.
I am from east texas and 66 years old. I was always told that right before ww2 the many sawmills in the area provided housing for the young workers. it was common to have a weekend party for the guys and women would show up, do to the young men booze and music. the music was provided many times by an in house upright piano or guys with guitars and fiddles [ violin]. also in this same time many places played boogie woogie music. all the music was for dancing. the partys were called a honky tonk.
Brother, I admire how you are exploring many genres of music. I was raised by parents who loved all types of music. That's why with the steady decline of talent and originality in music today, I have a treasure chest of decades of great music. Rock, Motown, blues, country, opera, classic, etc have me entertained with enough music that I don't need anything today. Keep exploring and listening! 👍👍
I can so identify with this. The greatest gift I got from my parents now passed is an appreciation of music of all types and in times of grief or just in the kitchen everyday I keep on loving and learning from music. Food for the soul and country music in particular hits those emotions be it heartbreak or a good story or a good night out on the town boot scooting. CC
It was a blessing to also inherit a love of all varieties of music from my folks, as well! And being a GenXer, I got to attend some of the greatest concerts ever;
Another very popular country line dance form the early 90's was "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Ray Cyrus. Yes im talking about Miley's father and the artist who was featured on Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road", which was also a popular line dance.
this so takes me back to my "boot scootin - honky tonk days" before I broke my neck & had to give it all up!!!! I am 74 now & my toe was tappin' when I heard this!!!!! Brought a smile to my face!!! Boot scootin is just going out dancing to the Honky-tonk which is a CW bar/club that plays LIVE music!!! !!! boot scootin' is just another word for dancing!!!
11:34 Dives along the Barbary Coast were first called honky-tonks. The country swing bands of the 30s brought it over to their genre and the places that played Hank the Texas swing groups were called honky-tonks.
It just proves we are all the same, we all like music, food, family, God, we all have a fashion style and places we go to spend time winding down from a long week…..humans are more alike than they are different from each other and it’s all beautiful
Brooks and Dunn are phenomonal have a large catalog. This was the opening song at my wedding reception! You cant sit during this, no matter what genre you like!
This was a jam when I was in highschool in 1998, not at the highschool , I was one of 3 white guys on the football team, but popular in rotc , sea scouts, prelim to military , it’s a jam !
I like your outlook on all the different styles of music that you do... I am a 68 year old white baby boomer woman who grew up in a small rural town with parents that liked classic piano and Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton... I grew up loving everything from Motown to Three dog night to CCR The Beatles Huge Elvis Presley fan... My music taste is so widespread and versatile if it makes me tap my fingers on the table or tap my toes on the floor it's good music 🎵🎶 it don't matter who makes it or who is singing it❤
When this song came out is was a huge deal. So BIG that it was one that ACTUALLY started country line dancing. The dance to it is sooo much fun!! Done that!!!😂
Love Brooks and Dunn. I got to see them in an outdoor concert, third row from the stage on one side. There were many acts that night, including Sugarland and the legend himself Mr. Alan Jackson, but Brooks and Dunn were the final act on stage. Not long after they took the stage, it started to pour. The way the stage was, they could have stayed back and been sheltered from the rain, but they didn't. They addressed us, the audience and acknowledged the rain. "We could easily stand back and bit and be dry, but y'all paid your hard earned money to come out here and see us perform and if we did that, those of you down here, close to the stage wouldn't be able to see us, and we just don't think that's fair. That's not the way we want to perform. We want all of you to be able to enjoy this and see us." At some point towards the end of their performance, their last song or their encore is when it started to Thunder. Thankfully they were able to finish their performance but they were soaking wet by the time they were done. They sound the same live as they do in their videos. If you ever get a chance to see them in concert, I highly recommend. You won't regret it!
Omg!!!!! THIS WAS MY LIFE... Thank you!!! Country is my Jam!!!!! Honky Tonk is a Bar with Live Music. Yes Boot Scootin Boogie is the Redneck Version of the Cha Cha Slide. Lol You need any country music I got you. Ultimate Happy place message. Carrie Underwood Something in the Water. Good Happy Feel good... Kane Brown, Good As You or Thank God. Important/Deep: Clay Walker, Questions or Hardy Wait in The Truck.
God bless your uncles. My grandparents had a 40 acre plot of land and 20 of that was a strawberry farm, and the other, woods I could walk through and go sit down by the creek and listen to the breeze through the trees. There’s a certain kind of peace in the country. I’ve come full circle and am living next to a creek again. Peaceful. I wish you that peace, too.
I just love hearing your comments. Man, you are really growing up, asking questions, and seeing so much that life has to offer, both current and in the "good ole days. ". I enjoy watching you young people grow up and seeing life with a new vision. I'm a grandmother, so have a special place in my heart for people your age. My granddaughter is beginning to appreciate my view on life, experiences she is now facing, and how to make good, sound decisions. Congratulations on your new baby !
Brooks and Dunn are truly blue collar performers. Before becoming performers, they worked on the pipelines in Alaska. They used to entertain the guys in the work camps up there after work. The other guys kept saying that they needed to go pro. Now if you know those kind of guys (i am one of them) it's easier to get him to give you his classic car then a compliment. So when these types of guys are saying it, you really know you got something. They went and gave it a shot, and became hugely popular. You can respect it when they talk about hard working men, because that's where they came from and they have experienced it first hand.
A great band has variety in their music. (Ballads, boot-scootin', fun, heartbreak, etc). On the topic of commonality in culture, Home Free: Everybody Walkin' This Land. Be sure to listen to the important outro.
Line dancing was everything in the early to mid 90's. There was a whole subgenre of country that was the same tempo, same structure, and easily extended to a 5-minute dance cut. A honky is a white person, like me. A honky tonk is a country bar where there might be a live band, definitely is lots of beer, and back when we could smoke indoors, was full of cigarette smoke.
🎶 "Country fried, baptized in gravy, Can't wash off what The Good Lord made me. No matter how far that highway goes, An old dirt road'll getcha home..." 🎶 -Bubba Sparx ft Colt Ford & Danny Boone
Brooks and Dunn are definitely one of the biggest duos in Country, and their style was so eclectic. Ranging from slow to super high energy. Neon Moon, my Maria, if you see her/see him, hard working man are my Favs.
I know you love a good story in a song. Check out 3 Steps by Lynard Skynard. Don’t think you will be disappointed with this Southern Rock classic. Hello from Kentucky. Keep up the good work. Enjoying your journey.
A Honkey Tonk is a nightclub & originated from the time of Hank Williams Sr. And the older singers when it was called Country and Western music 🎶 🎶 🎶 Yes there is a line dance for this song.
Everytime I hear this song, I want to throw on my black felt cowboy had and black suede, pointed toe cowboy boots and dance! I can't tell you how many times I've been busted early in the morning, in my socks, on that old wooden floor (our house was built in 1920), putting the coffee on, and dancing to this!
I worked as head of security in a dance club. This song was played all the time and the dancers did the "shadish", pronounced that way but spelled differently. Schottistche. All of the best and hottest dancers hit the floor for this one. The wannabes just moved off the floor to watch. If you never react to this please watch it for yourself. Look up Mark Kroos playing "Dueling Banjos".
Lived in TX for about 40 years and yes, they did do a line dance to this song but boot scootin boogie is basically a kicker dance, county and western dancing. A honkey tonk and a dimly lit bar with a big dance floor where you dance a two step or polka around and around. Tons of fun and great exercise
BP, you need to check out Dunn & Brooks huge hit, "Only in America." Not only is it a great song, but a bit patriotic, as well. LOVE your channel, especially since you are branching out to some country icons, etc.
Honkey Tonk is a country bar with a dance floor with live music. Most people wear cowboy boots! Everyone just lets loose and has fun! Should be more of them so people can forget the stress of the week and just has fun which we all need these days!
Saw them second headline with Kid rock closing at an outdoor festival. What a show. Honky tonk is a country and western bar. I vote for neon moon also.
I remember seeing an old western movie with an upright piano in a bar...it was a honky tonk bar because it had live music with a piano and sometimes banjos for entertainment. We did exercise line moves to this song by Bill Ray Cyrus in Silver Sneakers class in gym.
Okay you guys. I know a Honky Tonk is a small country bar but my question is. Where did the word Honky and Honky Tonk come from. Like what was its inception and why hahaha. HBO, Help a brotha out!! 😆

Traditionally , mostly white patrons in honky tonk bars… hence the honky… 😁
I won't pretend to know anything. But Stephen King writes it as some kind of equivalent to 'cracker'. Like ... a black person calls white guys 'honky mofas' constantly. Won't pretend he's using it 'right' either
I googled honky tonk and according to Dr google it originates as African American owned establishments.
Honky Tonk is a bar usually with a piano….like what you pointed out. Usually the piano sounds clinky or out of tune. Ragtime, country, hillbilly.
brooks and dunn "neon moon" has to be on the list next
Yes sir. 2 steppin. Many nights drinking Tequila Sunrises to that 1.
Neon moon is the best
YES!!!! Neon Moon!!!! ❤
Yes! Most definitely do Neon Moon next!! Then My Maria!!
@@carolinagothic7243 oh my maria is sooooo good.
Every time I hear this song I then have to go listen to Tracy Byrd's - Watermelon Crawl
Great mention
That's not Tracy Byrd'd song though Tom t Hall wrote that song and also made a hit out of it
But it's a great song by either person
Great song! Love Watermelon Crawl by Tracy Byrd!
Yep got to agree.
@@karenking5357 Tracy Byrd sings Watermelon Crawl...Tom T Hall's song is Old Dogs Children and Watermelon Wine.

West Texas oilfields in the 30s. Honky tonks were rough bars with live music.
Nothing like the sound of boots on a wooden floor
@@makkimontoya7330 right!!
My Maria from Brooks and Dunn is my favorite
They did a great version of that song !!!
Great vocal range in that one.
“Play Something Country” will rock your world, brother!
Honky Tonk is a country bar with dance floor and live music. Gotta have boots on to go Boot Scootin'
And that song had its own line dance back in the 90s

"Honky-tonk" comes from the sound the old bar/ saloon pianos used to make. They were said to go "honka-tonk".
Yep that’s the origins of the phrase. Since the mid 1900s it’s generally used to describe a country dive bar, usually including live music and a dance floor.

Oh the memories!!
✌️&❤️
Same!!
If you react to Garth Brooks you have to find a live video. Shameless is one of my favorites from him.
Brooks and Dunn is a rabbit hole you should definitely explore! The most successful duo in the history of country music!
A rough and rowdy bar for working folk to blow off steam.
Both still alive and boot scootin. Still doing concerts together.
Honky Tonk Badonkadonk by Trace Adkins
Oh Lord, I don't know if he's ready for the giant that is Trace Adkins 😂😂😂
Great suggestion! Trace Adkins Honky Tonk Badonkadink! Another hilarious one from Trace Adkins is Hot Momma and/or Ladies love Country Boys!
I thought the same thing every time he said Honky Tonk
A man of culture I see 👍
Trace Adkins has so many other songs that are WAYYY better.
Why do people keep suggesting the corny gimmicky one instead of the good ones?
When you walked in & this was playing, you knew it was going to be a rocking good time. According to my husband there's nothing like a good pair of cowboy boots for dancing.

Honky Tonk is a country bar, usually with a wood dance floor & sawdust. Yes, it's a line dance! You could find me down here in Houston at Wild West or Texas Tumbleweed on Fiday & Saturday nights for line dancing, 2-steppin, waltzes, polkas, jitterbugs & shake yo thang dancing. All walkes of life came in & had a blast! Check out Neon Moon by Brooks & Dunn!😊
Hell yeah
100% Japanese blooded dude here, yes this was a line dance hit! Honky-Tonks are a country bar, usually a wooden dance floor for you guessed it, line dancing! This was THE PARTY song when it was blaring all over the country radio! IT was a GREAT time!
I’m a New Yorker and always loved country music, even in the 70’s. My friends not so much, but I did.
Me too. Grew up in NYC & NJ in the 60s & 70s, but always liked country music. I guess I got it from my mom, the daughter of Italian immigrants. who grew up in NYC in the 30s, 40s & 50s.
I'm so glad you are continuing to check out Brooks & Dunn! 😊
I am from east texas and 66 years old. I was always told that right before ww2 the many sawmills in the area provided housing for the young workers. it was common to have a weekend party for the guys and women would show up, do to the young men booze and music. the music was provided many times by an in house upright piano or guys with guitars and fiddles [ violin]. also in this same time many places played boogie woogie music. all the music was for dancing. the partys were called a honky tonk.

Give Montgomery Gentry "Something to be Proud of" a listen.
I second this!! 🙌
I third this!! R.I.P Troy Gentry!!
Brand New Man was their first hit. One of my many favorites of theirs.
There’s a line dance that goes with this song.

Brooks and Dunn are very much alive and still touring. Just an FYI.
No, they do not. At least not together. They disbanded in 2010 according to Google, which sounds about right. if they still do it, solo not together.
"Neon Moon" - "Brand New Man" - "My Maria" are all great songs from their massive string of hits! 🤠 Ronnie Dunns vocals are impressive!
Brooks and Dunn “ Hard Workin Man” is outstanding too
Most definitely!
the mans got 1 hell of a voice
It just proves we are all the same, we all like music, food, family, God, we all have a fashion style and places we go to spend time winding down from a long week…..humans are more alike than they are different from each other and it’s all beautiful
Amen!
True you can be any color and like all kinds of music I like Motown and country along with R&B too
@@christarpley6861 yes, exactly….music is the universal language

Saw the live in Charlotte NC with a lady deeply loving Country music. What a concert they gave
Love Brooks and Dunn. I got to see them in an outdoor concert, third row from the stage on one side. There were many acts that night, including Sugarland and the legend himself Mr. Alan Jackson, but Brooks and Dunn were the final act on stage. Not long after they took the stage, it started to pour. The way the stage was, they could have stayed back and been sheltered from the rain, but they didn't.
They addressed us, the audience and acknowledged the rain. "We could easily stand back and bit and be dry, but y'all paid your hard earned money to come out here and see us perform and if we did that, those of you down here, close to the stage wouldn't be able to see us, and we just don't think that's fair. That's not the way we want to perform. We want all of you to be able to enjoy this and see us."
At some point towards the end of their performance, their last song or their encore is when it started to Thunder. Thankfully they were able to finish their performance but they were soaking wet by the time they were done. They sound the same live as they do in their videos. If you ever get a chance to see them in concert, I highly recommend. You won't regret it!
Fun song, great energy. Huge, huge hit. ❤
This song is fire 🔥 During the 90s I went through a major country music binge. This music was rocking. Peace out ✌️ ☮️
Thank you for more Country and the Magic of B&D!
This dance is very close to the electric slide.
There’s nothing better than going to a rodeo during the July 4th holiday, watching the fireworks, and then going to the dance afterward. 🐴 🤠
Neon Moon is fire!!
Yes!! Neon moon next?
Omg!!!!! THIS WAS MY LIFE... Thank you!!! Country is my Jam!!!!!

My granddaughter is beginning to appreciate my view on life, experiences she is now facing, and how to make good, sound decisions. Congratulations on your new baby !
Still an absolute staple in so many Honky Tonks around the world for line dancin 😀
This song brought line dancing back.
Best 2 stepping song ever, and a great duo with a deep well to dive into.

The term honky-tonk has been used since the 1800s in Oklahoma and Texas. Originally referring to variety shows in saloons.
My mom actually danced competition with her dance crew to this song. This always reminds me of her. 😁
I know you love a good story in a song. Check out 3 Steps by Lynard Skynard. Don’t think you will be disappointed with this Southern Rock classic. Hello from Kentucky. Keep up the good work. Enjoying your journey.
I remember this song coming out and then came the line dancing!
The video was filmed at a nightclub called Tulsa City Limits
Love their song "Red Dirt Road" Both are still alive and going strong!
That's where i drank my first beer.....
Your next assignment, Neon Moon from these guys
A Honkey Tonk is a nightclub & originated from the time of Hank Williams Sr. And the older singers when it was called Country and Western music 🎶 🎶 🎶
Yes there is a line dance for this song.
Neon Moon :)
Everytime I hear this song, I want to throw on my black felt cowboy had and black suede, pointed toe cowboy boots and dance! I can't tell you how many times I've been busted early in the morning, in my socks, on that old wooden floor (our house was built in 1920), putting the coffee on, and dancing to this!
OK since you are asking about a Honky Tonk, it is time you watch Trace Adkins do his song, Honky Tonk Badonkadonk!
I love Brooks and Dunn!! They have a ton of great songs! This was very popular at country bars dance floors!!
This is on my playlist ❤
Neon moon needs to be another reaction for you brotha.
I worked as head of security in a dance club. This song was played all the time and the dancers did the "shadish", pronounced that way but spelled differently. Schottistche.
All of the best and hottest dancers hit the floor for this one. The wannabes just moved off the floor to watch.
If you never react to this please watch it for yourself. Look up Mark Kroos playing "Dueling Banjos".
The first line dance I learned I’m the 90’s was the original Boot Scootin’ Boogie. It has changed over the years.
Heal toe , do si do .
It’s like the electric slide , you got it !
A honky Tonk. Is a bar that plays music and has a dance floor
Hillybilly Deluxe, Play Something Country, so many great songs by Brooks & Dunn
Brooks and Dunn are awesome! Love this song so much. Love your reaction! ♥
This song put them on the map. It was a huge hit. A honky tonk is a Country Dance Bar with alcohol everywhere and music like this playing by the band.
Lived in TX for about 40 years and yes, they did do a line dance to this song but boot scootin boogie is basically a kicker dance, county and western dancing. A honkey tonk and a dimly lit bar with a big dance floor where you dance a two step or polka around and around. Tons of fun and great exercise
BP, you need to check out Dunn & Brooks huge hit, "Only in America." Not only is it a great song, but a bit patriotic, as well. LOVE your channel, especially since you are branching out to some country icons, etc.
They were so popular, won so many awards they'd be like "Brooks & Dunn...again." hahaha
It was a huge line dance back in the day, you should listen to "play something country" even if its not on the channel
My favorite Brooks And Dunn song is Ain't Nothin About You.
Neon moon, and an absolute must, Play something country, your gonna flip
Honkey Tonk is a country bar with a dance floor with live music. Most people wear cowboy boots! Everyone just lets loose and has fun! Should be more of them so people can forget the stress of the week and just has fun which we all need these days!
And they are both kind and humble!
Love anything frome Brooks and Dunn
Saw them second headline with Kid rock closing at an outdoor festival. What a show. Honky tonk is a country and western bar. I vote for neon moon also.
There's a line dance for this song. This one put them on the billboard. They have great albums.
Ronnie Dunn's newer and BEST is Cowgirls and Rock n Roll! It Rocks! You won't regret it!! Much love ❤️ Sue
One of my favorites is their song Play something country. And yes this was a line dance craze
Fire. Love them. Play Something Country is great as well.
I remember seeing an old western movie with an upright piano in a bar...it was a honky tonk bar because it had live music with a piano and sometimes banjos for entertainment. We did exercise line moves to this song by Bill Ray Cyrus in Silver Sneakers class in gym.
Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus (Miley's daddy)
