I can't believe I am just hearing this song for the 1st time...my new favorite song during when I have a PTSD flare-up 🤷🏽♂️
Song never gets old much love from Scotland
Immensely underrated singers!
Love this song! On my list of things to learn for the campfire.
KICK ASS song. Love Hayes Carll.
I first heard this song one year ago played on a local radio station in Brenham, Texas. There was no mention of who the artist was or what the title of the song was. I have searched for it for a while but gave up thinking it was just some unknown local in a bar and something and thought I would never hear it again. Then last week I hear his song "You get it all" and recognize his voice. I'm scrolling through his songs looking for "Taliban song" since I didn't know what it was really called. I am incredibly pleased to find this finally. And to think that this was written over a decade ago just boggles my mind. How was this not played everywhere? What is a KMAG?
The album title is a military acronym for "Kiss My Ass Guys, You're on Your Own".
wow, this guy is insane....what a story...
I don’t care what them cry babies say, I say Rock On MR Carll 🎼🎼🎼
What a great song. Great story, and will take a while to memorize. Sure as hell ain't no Nashville pop. I like a songsmith that doesn't cave to the pop crap. In the same category as Jamey Johnson, John Prine, John Hiatt, Ray wylie Hubbard, Robert Earl Keen, Paul Thorn, just to name a few of the greats.
Dude is to talented! How do you even write shit like this 😮❤️
Hi ! i must say "thanks" to Dohertykaky, cause she sent me this video. I've enjoyed, and had saw thatyou both had a L.R. Baggs pick-up (don't remember the real name of those pick-ups) on your two acoustics guitars, that are really sounding well, particularly for the solo.I suppose that the guitarist that's singing got a Gibson J45 : very good guitar.... Well done to you 2 ! BYE !
Whattya know pvt. Carll, you passed guitar inspection. Now lemme see that mouth harp you maggot!!
Awesome
Subterranean Homesick Carll
Its almost like new artists these days make it or break it on the "Illusion" of originality and talent, destined by whether their audience has or has not yet heard of the ripped off origins from which songs like these were copied and pasted upon, this case, Bob Dylan decades ago with Subterranean Homesick Blues, farrrrrr for appealing and talented than noted for!
@@KevinTatum88 ..ummm...uh, what? Hard time following, but I can volley by mentioning that Hayes, not a new artist BTW, probably wasn't counting on his potential audience somehow not having heard of Dylan and his cannon. Fair to assume.
Hayes has worked REAL hard (at times too hard) for the notoriety and credit he is now enjoying. Constant touring and honing of his songwriting craft. There isn't a mediocre song on KMAG (the album). That is why it won a lot of shit.
And then your last sentence was just fatuousness.
Johnny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
God knows when
But you're doing it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
A man in the coonskin cap, in the pig pen
Wants eleven dollar bills, you only got ten
I had no idea what I was missing
Where can I find the tabs or learn how to play it?
THE END OF THE FUCKING WORLD!!!!!!
Bob Dylan meets Steve Earle
I'm convinced!!! Headed for the recruiter and enlisting tomorrow!!! Grandpa was proud of being able to kill a Commie for mommy in the 'Nam and I wanna' be like him.
You didn't see Bob Dylan on stage with another guitarists playing Subterranean Homesick Blues did you?!?
No, always with a full band backing him. You?
What does your question have to do with this video? Such a weird thing to ask. Were you high or drunk at the time? Anyway, Dylan often played with other musicians, so I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

got to love TRUE Texas Country, not that hyped up Bull-Shite from Nashville.
you do know this is Truly a rip off of a Bob Dylan song....same beat,rhythm,tempo...basically the same chords to Subterranean Homesick Blues, with similiar paced lyrics as Dylan had done, decades before already! No such thing as TRUE country music these days Joe, just rip offs of songs artists hope their audiences havent already heard,about the only "truth" to music in present day america!
Uh yuh. Mm-hmmm. That's so.
get high
Lol
what ? i mean really whats that mean ? it makes no sense what your saying. i don't think there is a musical term " derivative " granted its a repetitive standard blues progression buts its well done and suits the overall tone of the song. also on a song with a complicated story and lyrical structure you want the music to be sort of a backdrop so not to kill the gimmick. the gimmick of this type of song is how well the singer can get the lyrics out and of course its kinda a funny story.
'Derivative' is a fine word to describe art work that is perhaps overly reminiscent of past styles and works. Simply a re-hash for lack of originality of one's own...and to be fair its probably true here to some extent. Even the wayward narrative hearkens back to Dylan's 'Talkin' WW III 'talking-blues Rather than being a lazy re-hash however, the song kicks ass, giving Sub. Homesick a run for it's iconic money.
Derivative' is usually a pejorative, suggesting disapproval by the critic or commentator and even hinting at plagiarism. Think Lenny Kravitz, maybe Green Day or The Black Keys. I know Hayes work well enough to know he is not a derivative artist (inasmuch as folky-bluesy-country crooners can help but be anyway). Borrowing in a respectful, straightforward way is pretty much a blues and folk tradition and exactly what Carll is doing here with his similarly chorus-less, yet arguably more fluid salvo. Don't want to get my man in any copyright trouble.
Hayes probably has a big fondness for Dylan and so wrote the tune somewhat intentionally derivative of the master, I would argue. An homage.
you do know this is undoubtbly a copied and pasted rip off of a Bob Dylan song....of the same beat,rhythm,tempo(etc)...and basically the same chords to Subterranean Homesick Blues, with similiar paced lyrics as Dylan had done, decades before already! No such thing as TRUE originality in music these days, merely just rip offs of songs these new artists hope their audiences havent already heard! Try DYLANS song first before hearing this "average" rockabillish song

Blah blah blah......It is a fine nod to SHB with an insanely original, hilarious, and caustic critisism that I bet ol' Mr. Zimmerman would love.
I suppose this is the same case? th-cam.com/video/AWEJPqJtZsk/w-d-xo.html
Either way it's music, it sounds good, and oh well it sounds similar to someone else. However the artist makes it is how they did it. Instead of picking it apart just appreciate the clear influence derived from the "original" and move forward. Enjoy it don't destroy it!
Wow, why such hate.
I'm a huge dylan fan, but he's been guilty of the same thing. Like another commenter already said, SHB was a takeoff on Chuck Berry, some of the lyrics from Woody Guthrie. Hell, you can go through Bob's lyrics on any album & find stuff he's "borrowed".
But that's cool & doesn't make him any less great. The important thing is doing something cool & original with it. I think Bob did & this guy too.......the lyrics are great and hilarious. If anything, I think dylan would appreciate the nod.
Shouldn't you be harassing Bruno Mars or The Lumineers, really?
KMAG is a break neck 175 BPM's appx. SHB is more leisurely, so wrong about the tempo. SHB is a 2 chord experimental dirge, more hip hop than rock really' KMAG throws in an A7 and a D7 for variety and a grand total of 4 chords. Wrong again prosecutor.
You do know that more people than you and your immediate family HAVE heard Bringing It All Back Home right? But... I betcha you've never heard 'Good As I been To You' though. THAT one's kind of 'derivative' so you wouldn't like it. I know it note for note though, a bit of a Dylan freak, so save your lecture.
C'mon Tatum, you don't want to be a bum, lay off the spiced rum, kick off your sandals and tend to your love handles.
I like the lyrics but the music is so derivative that I can't enjoy it.
waah! me no likey similar. Not enjoy!
