Chris shared during a post-Grammy Q &A, he wrote the song with his bassist, guitarist, and drummer while they were “backstage jamming” during a tour. A backstage throw together song.. just incredible...
I’m not a country fan either, but Chris is something else (seems more of a country/blues mix to me, too) and it’s well worth a dive down his rabbit hole! I’d highly recommend Sometimes I Cry (Bing Lounge) and Tennessee Whiskey/Drink You Away at the CMA Awards 2015 with Justin Timberlake. You won’t be sorry!
I was never a country fan, but listening to Chris Stapleton sent me down a country music rabbit hole that I am loving. Listen to Tyler Childers and Zach Bryan. Both are amazing lyricists and vocalists.
He's so much more than a typical Country artist. Blues, Folk, R&B/Soul, Rock, it's all strongly in there, too (Country sometimes is what you hear least). So that along with his incredible voice and songs, it just brings a wide spectrum of people together, all being touched by his music. Just a uniquely awesome artist and an American treasure.
60 Minutes did an awesome piece about him and his wife a few years ago. It's worth a lookup. And when you see a blond woman on stage singing backup. That's his wife and the mother of their 5 kids.
he old school twang country..means what he says and says what he means..its gritty and grabs you suddenly then holds you to help you thru your emotional rollercoaster
New sub here cuz of chris Stapleton ❤ SO glad you reacted to this cuz now you get to experience a living legend! He was in a couple bands before while he said he has written over 200 songs for other great artists, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, Sheryl Crow, Adele... to name a couple. He said he was going to take a break and raise his kids, then with some help of his wife he put out his first album "Traveler" in 2015 won a bunch of CMA Awards, including - Best New Artist.. performed that night with Justin Timberlake AND Chris's wife "TENNESSEE WHISKEY & DRINK YOU AWAY" now we get to experience someone so special in CHRIS STAPLETON!!! He is Not considered "Country" He does it all.. Blues, Rock, southern rock, bluegrass, country, etc..My request would be a rocking out song of his "ARKANSAS" LIVE AT CMT AWARDS 2021 (remember to pause twice or put a filter on screen so CMT won't block it)
Chris Stapleton writes all his own music but he does have covers also- like Tennessee Whiskey. I haven't heard a bad song from him yet. Seen him live twice. Please react to anything and it'll be great lol Want to really jump down the rabbit hole? Check out when he was with the bluegrass band The Steeldrivers (Can you Run makes me cry) & jompson brothers (Barely alive will leave you barely alive lol)
I love watching people discover Chris' awesomeness for the first time! It's almost as good as discovering it again myself. Lol. I've seen him in concert and the man sounds better live in absolutely everything, with the exception of his song, "Fire Away," which has an amazing fully produced video with a mental health focus. (His vocals are just as good live, but the video really adds something for this one. He donates the proceeds of that song to a mental health organization.) Can't wait to watch you on this journey! Btw, Chris has been in two previous bands ... The Jompson Brothers, which is rock and The Steeldrivers, which is fully bluegrass. He has collaborations with P!nk, Ed Sheeran/Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Taylor Swift (I don't love that one since he's really just background), H.E.R., Jennifer Hudson and on and on. He also did a cover of, "Nothing Else Matters," for Metallica's album, "Blacklist." That one has kind of an outlaw country sound with a 3 minute guitar solo at the end. Southern rock ala Lynyrd Skynyrd, blues, gospel ... just ... all the things. Chris absolutely his own genre! A couple of fun, upbeat ones are, "Devil Always Made Me Think Twice," and "Arkansas." Honestly, just pick one of his songs and go. 😉
Glad to see someone starting the Chris Stapleton journey! I'm not a country fan in general, but his bluesy vocals and guitar just get me! Recommend live versions of Sometimes I Cry, Either Way, I Was Wrong (Austin City LImits) -- would love to see more of your reactions!
Suggestions,,,,, I Was Wrong,,,,, Sometimes I Cry,,,,, Tennessee Whiskey,,,,, Millionaire,,,,, Traveler,,,,,, always do the 'live' performances when possible. For guitar work, check out 'Keith Urban, Chris Stapleton, Vince Gill Shredding Guitars'. Chris has a whole room to hold his guitars, I watched a concert where he changed guitars for every single song. Just to highlight how good he is, he was in the audience at a show was called up on stage to do a song and did "It's A Mans World" unrehearsed, strange band, borrowed guitar and he killed it. The best reaction was from the band when he sang the opening words.
Chris is one of those genre spanning artists it's very hard not to like regardless. He has a lot of colabs with artists from other genre as well. He was on the Metallica Blacklist Album, "Nothing Else Matters". You might enjoy his take on it. I particularly enjoyed his performance of "Whipping Post" at the Gregg Allman Tribute. It's a must hear in my opinion.
He was a songwriter for a ton of people before he went on his own. His wife Morgane (who has a FABULOUS voice too, and is his backup singer), talked him into it.
@bShawReacts great reaction! Just sub’d. Please react to his performance “Tennessee Whiskey (Austin City Limits)” his wife Morgane sings harmonies w/him. He’s his own genre! Chris is a living Legend. And he’s so good LIVE! Thank
Chris Stapleton is a song writer, singer, performer, artist, all the above. He did write this song. Chris has also wrote songs for many famous artists in all different genres. Literally every song of Chris Stapleton is amazing. And he is also one of the rare artists who sound better live. Chris Stapleton’s wife is also a singer, and performs with him on many of his songs.
Yes!! Thank you, Ben! I knew you would appreciate this artist. Like I said I'm not a country fan even though Tennessee, my home state has the country music holy grail in it but to me, this isn't country. This was my first request ever. I see and feel the same "thing" in you that I feel towards music and have since I was 4 and it goes beyond loving music and it's rare. I think that's what I felt an immediate connection to you plus you're a good guy. I got so pumped watching you watch this. He takes you to a place around the middle where you think it could be the peak. I was talking to the screen saying, "buckle up Ben, you ain't seen nothing yet." Now, I'm going to check my TH-cam settings because this has been out for 2 days and I'm just seeing it. Thanks again my friend!
Chris Stapleton is it!! I can't say anything negative about him or Morgane .Both fit like a glove!! I hope they sing for a long time and continue to make super great hits .
I see you have on a Metallica T-shirt. Chris did "Nothing Else Matters" from the Metallica Blacklist album. Watch him doing 'I Was Wrong" (his) & Tennessee Whiskey (cover) Live at Austin City Limits. Check out "Barely Alive" & "Sometimes I Cry" (his) Live at The Bing Lounge. See him at 26 on Sandy Beaches Cruise 12 singing "Fool Me Again." (his). You'll hear blues, soul, gospel, R & B, rock & straight up country from Chris - but always that killer voice.
Really there is nothing traditional about Chris. He was heavily influenced by blues, soul and sang in church when he was young. He started in a bluegrass band, The SteelDrivers. Some real magic with that group. Can you Run, if it hadn’t ‘t been for love and many more! Then was in an outlaw country band before going solo. Check it all out, not a bad record by him 💙🎸👍🏼
Chris Stapleton had written over Five Thousand songs, when his wife convinced him to get on stage and sing with her, he had always been audience Shy ❤ he keeps his anxiety down.
Ahhh... blue-eyed soul.. that's Chris's genre..😁... I was grinning at your first break.. goosebumps huh ?..just wait till until his guitar starts weeping 👍... Chris Stapleton and Toby Keith are American treasures..if you're just now learnng how cool new 'country' is..keep looking into it...yes yes..some folks loose their truck..their house..and their dog..but don't let that detere you...from Keith Urban to Home Free (a'capella) there's more to country than whining...and just in case you live under a rock..😲..have you listened to 💥...Oliver Anthony...Rich Men North Of Richmond...WVRADIO on YT His first professionally recorded song hit 100M views in under 4 months and he just received a plaque from YT for 1M subscribers since this past spring... Ill be checkng out your playlist to see how far you've come since this video 4 months ago... May your New Year be prosperous and healthy... 🌿🌿🌿
Hey mate, nice reaction. You should check out an Australian band. Cold Chisel. The song is Bow River live from 2003. It’s so much fun. Also Cold Chisel Wild Thing cover live.
Wait what?!?! He covered a Metallica song! How have I not heard of this wizardry? 🤣 I’ll definitely be checking it out soon! Thank you for the sub and the info about the song! Hope all is well my friend 👍
Sorry man, I call BS on you just now hearing Chris Stapleton lol. He "owns" more genres than any one has ever been able to. Rock, blues, country, soul, R&B, bluegrass, pop. His writing, vocals and his ability to drive a 3 minute song deep into your guts is nearly unmatched. If your telling the truth, you have a lot of catching up to do LOL.
I haven’t heard anything by Jelly Roll. I know who he is but never listened to him. Tom is the first hip hop that I’ve heard in years! I’ll check it out for sure though!
@@bShawreacts He isn't hip hop for sure! He has made it big on the country charts but he's also definitely not twangy. I think you'll be hooked. I prefer the vid titled "previously unreleased"
Stapleton wrote it... he is an amazing songwriter and artist, great to see live as well.
Chris shared during a post-Grammy Q &A, he wrote the song with his bassist, guitarist, and drummer while they were “backstage jamming” during a tour. A backstage throw together song.. just incredible...
He wrote this with his band 15 minutes before a warm up. Thats the kind of artist he is. They were just f'ing around!!
I love your reactions and comments to Chris Stapleton "Cold"❤
He has written tons of songs even a song for Adelle. Chris is so awesome. This one is so full of anguish and we feel it all.
✨🎵✨😎👍✨🎵✨
He sure can bend it!
Chris Is One Of The Greatest Singers, Song writers, Guitar Players, OUT THERE THIS DAY AND TIME, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING❤ LOVE HIS MUSIC 🥰❤♥️🥰
Yes. He wrote this song, this man is awesome, he can do it all❤
I Love Chris Stapleton ❤️🤣

I was never a country fan, but listening to Chris Stapleton sent me down a country music rabbit hole that I am loving. Listen to Tyler Childers and Zach Bryan. Both are amazing lyricists and vocalists.
Loving watching your Country discovery…There is so much goodness for your soul!
Every genre has blues. They all sing about tragedy and happiness.
He's so much more than a typical Country artist. Blues, Folk, R&B/Soul, Rock, it's all strongly in there, too (Country sometimes is what you hear least). So that along with his incredible voice and songs, it just brings a wide spectrum of people together, all being touched by his music. Just a uniquely awesome artist and an American treasure.
I couldn't have said it better myself❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

yes he writes all his music
he old school twang country..means what he says and says what he means..its gritty and grabs you suddenly then holds you to help you thru your emotional rollercoaster
YES
He writes his Own Music. The Greatest Country Singer of All Time.

So agree, the reaction videos are so much fun!
Chris and his band wrote this song and music in 15 minutes
Glad to see someone starting the Chris Stapleton journey! I'm not a country fan in general, but his bluesy vocals and guitar just get me! Recommend live versions of Sometimes I Cry, Either Way, I Was Wrong (Austin City LImits) -- would love to see more of your reactions!

Me too . I ❤ it too
Great reaction to a great song!
He wrote, "Cold". It's a Gibson, Les Paul guitar. Sunrise paint.

Chris is unbelievable im a old beatle zep. Pink Floyd fan I heard him once bought everything he’s done and not disappointed in one song he’s the truth
"I was wrong" Austin City Limits performance. You will not be disappointed. It's got everything!

LOVE IT! Very cool wow! Great reaction. Keep em coming Ben. 😊
Thanks!
Seeing as you look like a fan of guitars, check out “I was wrong” live at Austin city limits, by him. Really shows his ability as a guitarist
Great reaction! Thanks, Ben! ❤. Congratulations on passing 2k subscribers!
I was wrong chris stapleton amazing live performance
It’s a country blues mix but he has more country sounding songs that are incredible.
He started by writing songs. So it's his song.
@bShawReacts great reaction! Just sub’d. Please react to his performance “Tennessee Whiskey (Austin City Limits)” his wife Morgane sings harmonies w/him. He’s his own genre! Chris is a living Legend. And he’s so good LIVE! Thank

❄❄❄
He writes his songs with his wife who sings with him.
He started as a traditional country singer and morphed into the blues.
Really there is nothing traditional about Chris. He was heavily influenced by blues, soul and sang in church when he was young. He started in a bluegrass band, The SteelDrivers. Some real magic with that group. Can you Run, if it hadn’t ‘t been for love and many more! Then was in an outlaw country band before going solo. Check it all out, not a bad record by him 💙🎸👍🏼
Yes, he wrote this song he's a great songwriter, singer, husband and father of five kids.
He wrote this song.
Chris Stapleton had written over Five Thousand songs, when his wife convinced him to get on stage and sing with her, he had always been audience Shy ❤ he keeps his anxiety down.
Recommend his "I was wrong" live. Especially if u liking that guitar solo. Half the song is solo guitar
Tennessee Whiskey, Sometimes I cry, I was wrong, Man's world. Honestly pretty much everything.
Ahhh... blue-eyed soul.. that's Chris's genre..😁...
I was grinning at your first break.. goosebumps huh ?..just wait till until his guitar starts weeping 👍...
Chris Stapleton and Toby Keith are American treasures..if you're just now learnng how cool new 'country' is..keep looking into it...yes yes..some folks loose their truck..their house..and their dog..but don't let that detere you...from Keith Urban to Home Free (a'capella) there's more to country than whining...and just in case you live under a rock..😲..have you listened to
💥...Oliver Anthony...Rich Men North Of Richmond...WVRADIO on YT
His first professionally recorded song hit 100M views in under 4 months and he just received a plaque from YT for 1M subscribers since this past spring...

County music is a mixture of Gospel, Jazz blues , bluegrass and pop❤
You listen to the live cover of "Whipping Post" by the Allman Brothers. Knock your socks off.
Hey mate, nice reaction. You should check out an Australian band. Cold Chisel. The song is Bow River live from 2003. It’s so much fun. Also Cold Chisel Wild Thing cover live.
Added it to the list! Please have patience with me as I have over 200 requests! 🤟👍
Only thing country about Chris is his hat…everything else is blues🤷♀️😎🥰
Agreed!
Hes been wrighting songs for all the singers his wife told him 2 do his own shit
He writes or collaborates on most of his songs
He’s incredible!
I love watching grown men fall in love

New subscriber here! Lovin' your reaction style. Please react to Jelly Roll "Save Me" if you haven't heard it
I haven’t heard anything by Jelly Roll. I know who he is but never listened to him. Tom is the first hip hop that I’ve heard in years! I’ll check it out for sure though!
@@bShawreacts He isn't hip hop for sure! He has made it big on the country charts but he's also definitely not twangy. I think you'll be hooked. I prefer the vid titled "previously unreleased"
Sorry he is country
I wish you would just let the man sing and comment on him after. You just ruin it for the listener.
