@@foxp2483 Please tell me you're being facetious? Because nobody said a word about anyone. Only a sentiment that everyone on Earth can understand and appreciate. Ironically, the first person complaining is usually guilty of the very same thing they accuse somebody else of. Especially, someone bringing race into something it had nothing to do with.
It's an All American Song 🇺🇲. The Bots on here calling it a world song. It's there , Cover up. Look at all the videos of this song , it's the same thing "It's a World Song"
I've seen people from all over react and comment. Pakistan, several places in Africa, Vietnam, all over Europe, Canada and America. This song hits everyone. Everyone. It hits the men harder I'm seeing. They can understand him from a man's perspective. He mentions the suicide rate of young men in our country.
I am from India. I understood every word of what he is saying. As of today this is a universal issue. Your friends from Spain perhaps knew this even before the song came. Liked.
The line after "The obese milking welfare" was "If you're 5'3" and 300lbs taxes ought not pay for your bag's of Fudge Rounds". They're a cheap Little Debbie cake loaded with sugar.
@@doomguy584I'm not as much against welfare as the "body positivity" movement. I'm sorry, but if you are fat that's not a good thing. It's incredibly bad for your health. You don't have to make fun of fat people, but they should be told it's not healthy and you will be much better off losing weight.
@doomguy584 it's saying that handouts to buy fudge isn't what they need. They need mental health care or they'll be 6 feet under. Throwing money at the vulnerable isn't the end of the care they need.
I'm Italian, I'm 60, it's the first time I've cried since my mom died 30 years ago. This song is the new anthem of the western world because globalization has enslaved all workers like the Chinese were. Lord keep this boy as a symbol of asking for change
@@m2hmghb I am brother . I’m a dark green marine, regretfully I hated on light green marines, I am so very sorry. I allowed the media to sway my opinion. But I feel a overwhelming since of unity. From the hood rat to the middle class. We are unified.
He is partially speaking about how slavery never really ended … we are ALL slaves now!! “Second hand” slavery, the greatest HOAX the government played on the people … government said we will End black slavery and just incorporate it into EVERY RACE. It even has a name … CORPORATE AMERICA
I'm English working class. We are not known for showing emotion. Tears flooded down my face when I heard this - because it's true. My people and my country are being destroyed.
Indeed the sad thing is that the main opposition are the same on high cost energy, mass migration, removing cash and cars from all but the rich - leaving nowhere to turn.
The line about living in a new world with an old soul hits hard. WTF happened? Evil is trying to take over. I saw Oliver read from The Bible before singing this, and it is an amazing psalm. God bless you Oliver.
same, read my post about another video with the leftist take on this. They said He wants more social services when He clearly states taxes are high and money is loosing value.
Old soul means for me the awareness of carrying our Ancestors inside us, all the hardship they went through, all the wisdom they gathered, all the love they felt, in order to gift us this precious life. How did they disconnect us from our Ancestors? What lie did they tell, in order to make us believe that we are alone and separate?
“People in the music industry give me blank stares when I brush off 8 million dollar offers,” he wrote in a 730-word message posted to his Facebook account Thursday morning. “I don’t want 6 tour buses, 15 tractor trailers and a jet. I don’t want to play stadium shows, I don’t want to be in the spotlight.” Oliver continued, “I wrote the music I wrote because I was suffering with mental health and depression. These songs have connected with millions of people on such a deep level because they’re being sung by someone feeling the words in the very moment they were being sung. No editing, no agent, no bullshit. Just some idiot and his guitar. The style of music that we should have never gotten away from in the first place.
I’m from Scotland and I knew exactly what he was saying. This is an anthem for the 🌎 this is not just in `America where it is real bad, but it’s happening all over the world! Politicians in all Countries are in it for themselves not for the people 👍🏻😁🏴
I’ve never watched so many reactions in my life but this awesome young man has me floored with this super powerful songs. Speechless over this. Love you guys.
Same, I’ve watched so many, black, white, Asian, young, old, all of it and everyone has the same reactions. I still get choked up. This is a powerful song!
I am from the UK and this is an anthem for the world that really resonates. Just remember in the new social order you will own nothing but you will be happy. No money, no property, and finally no soul to call your own. How I cry for my grandchildren.
@@danielmorris995 since when is God an avenger, God is putting people where they need to be , why? are you one of the demons, I am spreading the word of God everywhere I can seems you are just smearing Gods work, only the demons talk more about the devil than God the father, not judging just pointing out facts !
Uh no! We've read and seen what blind faith in religion has done over the years. Brutal and barbaric. You think that if there was a God that's what he would be demanding from his followers??? Of course not! Keep your religious views out of politics.
Debuted #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with NO support of any kind. No radio play, no record label, nothing. This is a once-in-a-lifetime song that will never be repeated.
As a 67 year old Navy veteran, I have felt this way about my country for around 40 years. FINALLY, a voice has appeared which captures the pent up rage far too many of WE THE PEOPLE have felt for far too long... as you say, a boiling point is fast approaching.
shynickel’s a leftist hoping you won’t notice. He knows what’s coming for him and his consortium and wants to gaslight his way out of due punishment. It won’t work
Our World 🌎 is going through this it’s every last one of us. God is opening man’s heart. Oliver read a verse from the Bible and nearly was in tears as he reached the end of the passage. I believe the revival is upon us. 🙏🏽❤️🇺🇸
Just finished a demographics study. Wtf is going on in Korea. You guys need to demand your government promotes you guys having children. Funds and encourages and works to promote family first. Korea is the same way Europe and US are going.
I am from Italy. I understood not just every single word that Oliver sings, it touched me deep down. His message is universal. Although singing about his generation, I am 65, I found my eyes watering. God bless you Chris "Oliver", y Hasta la victoria siempre (even psalm 37 says so...)
I'm in Ireland and in the EU we have EXACTLY the same. It's time to unite worldwide and end the elite bs that we are all subjected too 😢I truly belive that United we are stronger. This song is a global anthem with the same reaction from each person x
@aoifeboland8100 that is what I have been saying since I first heard the song. It is a global anthem. There are elites everywhere trying to implement a new world order that will starve most of the people to death. I am 60 and the song shook my soul.
From the very first line, he literally pulls you in by your very soul! I held my husband while he cried listening to this. All he could say was, "He's singing what I think every damn day of my life and I'm so exhausted." People are tired and FED UP with working ourselves to an early grave just to provide the bare minimum for our families and *knowing* that nothing will EVER be enough. Yet, we get a front row seat to watch the lavish lifestyles of the 1%. Oliver is uniting us and we've been desperately waiting for this kind of movement! Much love and respect to all of you who continue to get up every day and put one foot in front of the other to support your family ❤ OLIVER ANTHONY FOR PRESIDENT ❤
Don't know if this is what he meant when he sang about the "young men putting themselves six feet in the ground," but i come from a proud Military family and my beloved niece deals with PTSD from her two tours in Afghanistan. There is an epidemic of our military taking their lives at a rate of 22 a day. My Annie has struggled greatly with how we gave up the country. She lost Brothers and Sisters in Arms there, friends. The Afghans who helped them were left alone to face the Taliban. They were forced to leave their courageous Military Dogs in kennels in the hangers (some who actually had prices on their heads) to be tortured and slaughtered. The rich men north of Richmond are doing nothing but kicking Veterans down when they should be raising them up. i pray for a day when there are no more homeless Vets or Vets on food stamps and when they receive the help and the praise that they deserve. 🙏🇺🇲 🩵☘️🥀
@@citizenbobx They do it because they still believe in what the Flag stands for. They may not agree with some of the things being said, but they will fight to protect those people's Right to say it. They fight for those of us still standing beside them. Blessings.🙏🇺🇲
That was my thought too, but on listening to it many times, and how it is joined with the 5-3 obese person (a woman is more probably that hieght) I think he is talking about all young men, including civilians, because so many men have no role in society due to government paying so much welfare to women, women dont need, nor want a male presence in their household. young men are dying by thier own hand and by thier self destructive due to having no role in this new social order, where government is a womans husband and provider.
I think all of you are correct. This song speaks to so many people on so many different levels that are hurting right now. Oliver rightly points out that most of the issues faced by the common people are caused by elites who sit in positions of power over us and enrich themselves by controlling us and keeping us down. He does it so eloquently.
Just heard it for the first time today and now I can't stop listening to it and watching the reaction videos. A 42-year-old blue-collar worker from Estonia.
This song is from his soul touching our souls! What we all know, I love this young man, everything we know to be actually happening, so much suffering, others milking the welfare system etc; and what is located north of Richmond VA? We get it, clearly get it! It brought tears to my eyes!
It`s all about timing. Oliver hit it just right. Lightning has struck! Another piece of the puzzle, for the people, has just snapped into place. Almost there. This fall, and winter will be lively.
Who the hell are you? You nailed it! Lightening struck, nice way to put it. The politician/ruling class gig is up. People are waking up. The iceberg is about to flip, and it will be violent and painful…but the peace that follows…will be lovely
Im a 56 yr old Englishman over the years iv heard songs that meant something special to me, every now and then, a song comes along that touches lots of people in the same way. But this is something else though, to touch so many people, worldwide, not just the usa, and of all ages, creeds, colours.... And to make everyone go WOW!!! Incredible.
A lady wrote a comment on a different Ch and her father was a 92 yo Veteran whom was crying listening to this song…amongst a lengthy list of comments from other Veterans. Younger men 30’s to 40’s just feeling the pain. Sad. We all need to come together it’s now or never…🙏🏽❤️🇺🇸
You can turn on the words on youtube. The first time I listened to this I found myself in tears. Thinking about what has happened to our country. Not that I didn't already know but the pain in his voicing of these lyrics brought the reality to the surface.
I'm from Germany and I'm listening to this song multiple times every day for nearly two weeks now (mostly reactions). This song bears a powerful message that is heard around the world. Love the Catturd mug btw
This song hits the soul. A sobering reality check. "Wish I could just wake up and it not be true but it is " . That killed me. And the suicide rate of young men in our country. I wept when i first heard it I've never seen a song resonate with so many different people. It's authentic, raw and heartfelt. It's proven to me that we have everything in common that matters. We better come together and save our country before we lose it all. For us and our children and future generations.
Oliver is BRAND new. He got sober within thw last month or so and he put all his pain into his music. This song he knew would resonate so he sent the demo to a West Virginia radio station and the rest is history. His back catalog of music is pretty incredible.
@@cameronsnyder1246 PLEASE, agree with me in prayer that True, Spirit Filled believers will come up beside him, to teach and guide him...(without ulterior motives, Family doesn't do that.) he needs it - We all have, and we All do. I imagine his life is pretty crazy right now; the adversary will use that to his every advantage to keep Chris' life too busy. Yah bless all yall in Yeshua's name. Family needs to support and strengthen Family. This young man is our lil brother... Shalom, Shalom 🙌✝️🙏
From the UK...this song has just summed up how we all feel...In a few lines Oliver Anthony has articulated the feelings of the masses..and when I say masses I mean the good, righteous and fair people who cannot stomach the corruption of the few. Where are our liberties going, where is the justness in society, where are we encouraging the strong and helping the weak. I believe this song has hit the public consciousness because the righteous know wickedness when they see it.
This song resonates with the hearts of the working class and hit the most sensitive nerve of those who are hating on this song, the singer and the message because they know it's true. Greetings here from the Dominican Republic!
Oliver has turned down $8 million from the corporate record companies. Said he does not want tours, jets, tour dates at big stadiums and does not want the spotlight. Very humble guy just hoping to help others cope with what he went through. Lives in an old camper he bought for $750 that has a tarp on the roof to stop the leaks. He has come back to God. My prayers are for him as he navigates this unwanted mine field.
The emotion in this song is so GD genuine. It’s like the only friends in the world that this man has left are the 3 loyal dogs lying at his feet in the woods as he pours his heart out to the whole country……indeed….to the whole world. 🥺
I have listened to this song countless times because I'm watching EVERY reaction. It is going world wide! All I can say is....God works in mysterious ways.
My husband and I are early 70s and we keep reminding ourselves how lucky we were to grow up when we did. That America no longer exists. I cry for my kids who won’t ever know that country. It’s a nightmare what’s happened to the USA🇺🇸
i used to wish to one day move to the US. Sadly i no longer do, unless i become ridiculously rich, it’s no longer the peoples country. My country is also falling to pieces, thousands of years of history in the UK, it’ll all be over soon 😢
It’s funny you should mention that. I’m older than you by a few years and just had my class reunion and I stood up and said exactly that to my classmates. We grew up in the best time ever in this country, before drugs, when you knew your neighbors, you left your doors unlocked, kids played in the streets safely until dark, times were relatively prosperous and about the only thing our parents worried about was Rock and Roll music!
I'm from Denmark. The first time I heard this song I had just been checking my salary. I was disappointed. I didn't expect much but still. And at that time I had been working 12 hour shifts for two weeks. "Wasting my life away" hit hard too and I know about Lolita island. I felt like he pretty much described me at that exact moment.
he speaks to a whole generation, even in other countries. I am French, and this song resonates more than anything in what is happening in my country, in our countries, in the West, to the point where I had tears in my eyes. he is the ONLY artist who gave me this feeling and sensation.
Just subscribed, we ALL must protect this guy. If ANYONE you know or follow, speaks out against this, THEY ARE AGAINST YOU! PERIOD! Cut your ties, unsubcribe, unfollow them. There must be hip-hop/rap remixes of this. I've spent the last 2 days watching YT reactions of this song. Most every reaction in me feed is by people of color. Every review leaves the channel's owner at some point utterly speechless.
I've noticed also that most of the reaction recommendations are black channels. Don't know if that's who's putting out most of the videos or if it's the algorithm, but interesting either way.
@StageWatcher If it were the algorithm, I can't it would be sending out just the reactions to this by people of color. I actually don't think the algorithm has a clue what to do with this. I believe it's all genuine at least to this point.
Your reaction is why this song has gone so viral and not just in the U.S. but world wide. It's a song for all free people vs those that want to take everything from us...all. This song will be legend for many years. Nice job.
I love the song, and it’s interesting how much it resonates with people on both sides of the left/right divide. It’s made me see that part of the “rich men north of Richmond” plan is to divide people from each other. A song like this, full of soul and truth, cuts right through the division and hype, straight to our human existence, no matter where we hear it around the world. Much needed! 🤘
I know what you were saying to your Spanish audience, but honestly, everyone in this world is uniting on the song because it is affecting all of us. People are being screwed all over the world and he is speaking for us all❤
This man sings to everyone. It's powerful, and everyone says the same thing, I feel the pain I feel the anger from his song. It makes me tear up in anger, and it's beautiful.
The "young men" line breaks my heart everytime I hear it 💔💔💔😭😭😭😎 You cant focus group authenticity, and Oliver has just that in spades!!! God bless him and keep him!! 💘💗🥰🥰🙏🙏✝️
You are right brother. I am sixty years old and I have not seen anything this bad. Not even the late sixties/early seventies (Vietnam era). So many people feel exactly the way you do. That is why this song has went far beyond viral. This guy is hitting a nerve in this country.
Some see the military as a way out only to put themselves 6ft in the ground fighting globalists wars. His lyrics have multiple meanings which makes it even more incredible❤😊
@@barbaran0 that's the beauty of fine art such as this poet... it means so many things to so many, touching the soul while unifying... solidarity brother
I hear it that way, too, as well as people working themselves to death just to put food on the table, and running out of money before they run out of month. I can understand how some may think crime might pay a little better.
Suicide from depression, working themselves to death, fighting and dying for our country, doing things in the streets that'll get them chased and shot, all trying to keep a roof over their family's head and the mouths fed.
We're all feeling what he is feeling, that's why this blew up. "People like me...people like you" says it right there. I have faith our country will get it together, I have to. We're American's that's just what we do!
You did this reaction justice with your honesty.. People who are saying its a conservative anthem are just plain wrong, these issues affect EVERYONE!(except rich men maybe lol) Oliver's song is a spark next to the powder keg that is the state of America for the working class right now. People can feel the real authenticity of his voice and the lyrics, which is really rare today.
I'm from Holland, it's the same here. This song is touching. Can't stop playing it, watching actual reaction video's which I usually never do. Commenting, which I also usually never do. It's a struggle for me too to make ends meet and provide for 3 kids.
35 + yrs in the profession. Now I'm disabled or major surgery and a yr out of work. My employer could care less. I've been a top performer my entire career. I feel ya.
He wrote The People's Anthem that will go down in history. When it feels like all hope is lost, Christopher Oliver Anthony shows up at the perfect moment, restoring my faith in humanity while bringing ALL people together 🫂 I'm so proud of him and I hope he never has to work a nine-to-five from here on out 🙏🏼 He's speaking for all of us, he's the voice for ALL HUMANITY and I'm so grateful because nowadays people are afraid to speak up about anything out of fear of being arrested or worse just for speaking your truth and saying how they feel 🥺 Thank you Chris, For literally getting me hope again. It's so refreshing knowing there are other people out there just like me, thanks to this song. I'm so overwhelmed because I almost lost hope in humanity, I have been wondering what happened to kind, compassionate and loving people. Thanks to this song, I found my people! ☺️ now I don't feel so alone & invisible. We have to come together 🙏🏼🫂🙏🏼 as One United Family to fight this evil that continues to divide us so they can control us more easily. 💯 This is the beginning of our fight, the fight for our freedom and the fight for a country. Sending Love 💌, light🕯️and positive vibes🧘🏻to all my people! 🤍🕊️🤍
This is my region of Appalachia. The music is historic and traditional the lyrics are clever double entendres reflecting current conditions in America delivered with feeling... it's powerful
I'm a brit and what I see happening to both our countries is horrifying to me, we were both once pillars of modernity and freedom whether it be speech or otherwise. Like he said it's a damn shame that people that just put their heads down and do their bit get nothing.
There are people all over the world saying "us too." Germany, Paris, UK, the Netherlands, (actually watched a reaction video by someone from the Netherlands lol) & more
I'm with ya brother... I love the song but it infuriates me to no end. This is the pain my fellow Americans are feeling every day and it breaks my heart.
I’m an immigrant and this country gave me home. I don’t feel contempt for this country, I feel contempt for corrupt politicians that are driving this country to hell.
This song came along at the right time as the SHTF is about to hit us big time and there's too many folks unprepare abd unaware. This is the first step to waking them up.
I live in Massachusetts and my wife and I struggle over cereal, milk, eggs, bread, and we watch people with EBT cards buy crab legs , lobster, steak , and 2 overflowing carts while we struggle to pay for absolute basics in a 1/2 full cart! $300 for us free for them on my tax dime!
@forsakenjones4695 EBT is Electronic Benefits Transfer, or food stamps. It allows a person on a Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) to buy food. It SHOULD be limited to buying staple nutritional items, and each state program is different, but depending on a number of factors such as level of household income, expenses, and number of persons in household a different amount is deposited in a government account each month linked to a special card for food purchases only. Different states have different restrictions.
Sung from a heart that sees what’s going on. There’s more of us than them. Hopefully the clock is ticking for those monsters. This song fits any country. Greetings from the UK
My wife and I are in our 70’s. We didn’t get it when we heard the clip at the debate. Last night we listened to the whole song…..my wife cried. We must have listened to it 20 more times. It is all we can talk about. Everything about this song resonates with the people.
Such a great song….the words pierce the heart! Our country is a mess and this song is powerful! Thanks for sharing it! Your reaction is priceless, I hope many people watch this video!
I never would imagine that rich men north of Richmond leave America people feeling undefeated the voice for us all ! God bless America God only knows! Heart felt so surreal we're living in last days it's worse everyday in our government! Oliver Anthony amazingly beautiful song from his ❤️
I'm about to be 58 years old and the last time a tear came to my eye was when my boy was born. This song touched my soul and it will touch many others as well. This man is singing from the heart. I've never felt so emotional over music before but it speaks to me. This is the new American anthem.
LYRICS: [Verse 1] I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day Overtime hours for bullshit pay So I can sit out here and waste my life away Drag back home and drown my troubles away [Pre-Chorus] It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is [Chorus] Livin' in the new world With an old soul These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don't think you know, but I know that you do 'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end 'Cause of rich men north of Richmond [Verse 2] I wish politicians would look out for miners And not just minors on an island somewhere Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat And the obese milkin' welfare [Verse 3] Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground 'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down [Pre-Chorus] Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is [Chorus] Livin' in the new world With an old soul These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don't think you know, but I know that you do 'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end 'Cause of rich men north of Richmond [Outro] I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day Overtime hours for bullshit pay
Im sitting in my driveway right now, drinking a 6 pack after work in tears, listening to you fully understand the song. I love my country, I love America, but I hate what we have become, and more importantly, I hate what we have allowed to happen. We need to take America back. The world needs to take the world back. Ive never watched you channel before but you just earned my subscription.
This song speaks to people across all age groups and backgrounds about the frustration that is being felt. I am 64, a 20 year Navy veteran, and I miss the America that grew up in. It wasn't perfect but people at least had a hope of achieving something for their efforts.
He doesn't name or call out anyone, but you'll know your enemy because they'll be the one's complaining about this great song.
You nailed it, like he nailed it.

So true. If Richmond was changed in Den Haag. I would say its spot on for where i am.
It certainly does here in the UK.
I've seen people from all over react and comment. Pakistan, several places in Africa, Vietnam, all over Europe, Canada and America.

I've heard from quite a few over there... there's definitely a globalist agenda going on
I'm 70. I'm African but that doesn't matter. This song is for the world.
And watching this again for the umpteenth time, and crying.
The line about living in a new world with an old soul hits hard. WTF happened? Evil is trying to take over. I saw Oliver read from The Bible before singing this, and it is an amazing psalm. God bless you Oliver.
Psalm 37:12-20 - he read it at the beginning of his show last weekend in NC. The entire show is on his Rumble channel.
same, read my post about another video with the leftist take on this. They said He wants more social services when He clearly states taxes are high and money is loosing value.
Old soul means for me the awareness of carrying our Ancestors inside us, all the hardship they went through, all the wisdom they gathered, all the love they felt, in order to gift us this precious life. How did they disconnect us from our Ancestors? What lie did they tell, in order to make us believe that we are alone and separate?
Evil took over long time ago. but you didn't recognize, because the masters of deception fooled you or shall they be called the synagogue of Satan.
His name is actually Christopher.
“People in the music industry give me blank stares when I brush off 8 million dollar offers,” he wrote in a 730-word message posted to his Facebook account Thursday morning. “I don’t want 6 tour buses, 15 tractor trailers and a jet. I don’t want to play stadium shows, I don’t want to be in the spotlight.” Oliver continued, “I wrote the music I wrote because I was suffering with mental health and depression. These songs have connected with millions of people on such a deep level because they’re being sung by someone feeling the words in the very moment they were being sung. No editing, no agent, no bullshit. Just some idiot and his guitar. The style of music that we should have never gotten away from in the first place.
I’m from Scotland and I knew exactly what he was saying. This is an anthem for the 🌎 this is not just in `America where it is real bad, but it’s happening all over the world! Politicians in all Countries are in it for themselves not for the people 👍🏻😁🏴

With my last name being sutherland I'd love to visit Scotland but instead I work two jobs to just get by.
Best song in the last 60 years
On a par with Ren, Hi Ren
Listen to his song called 'i want to go home' I like it even more.
I’ve never watched so many reactions in my life but this awesome young man has me floored with this super powerful songs. Speechless over this. Love you guys.
Same, I’ve watched so many, black, white, Asian, young, old, all of it and everyone has the same reactions. I still get choked up. This is a powerful song!
same bro
Same here!! ❤
@@stacychapman1374so true, it crossed all the color barriers
I never watched reaction videos and ive watched like 50 on this guy. He makes me proud to be a Virginian
I am from the UK and this is an anthem for the world that really resonates. Just remember in the new social order you will own nothing but you will be happy. No money, no property, and finally no soul to call your own. How I cry for my grandchildren.
It’s heart breaking, we have to trust in God to save the world from these demons trying to destroy all of us world wide
@@leedavis3704the devil has people here doing his work, why don't you be a fighter of God instead of waiting for the avengers.
@@danielmorris995 since when is God an avenger, God is putting people where they need to be , why? are you one of the demons, I am spreading the word of God everywhere I can seems you are just smearing Gods work, only the demons talk more about the devil than God the father, not judging just pointing out facts !
Uh no! We've read and seen what blind faith in religion has done over the years. Brutal and barbaric. You think that if there was a God that's what he would be demanding from his followers??? Of course not! Keep your religious views out of politics.
Debuted #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with NO support of any kind. No radio play, no record label, nothing. This is a once-in-a-lifetime song that will never be repeated.
As a 67 year old Navy veteran, I have felt this way about my country for around 40 years. FINALLY, a voice has appeared which captures the pent up rage far too many of WE THE PEOPLE have felt for far too long... as you say, a boiling point is fast approaching.
But remember brother, this song ain't about red vs blue, is us against them.
@@shynickel8239 ... huh? I believe that is what I conveyed without using your choice of words, "brother."

A civil war is inevitable
Thank you for your service ❤
I think all of us in the world feel what Oliver is feeling as well. Hell, I'm Korean and this song still moves me to the core.
Our World 🌎 is going through this it’s every last one of us. God is opening man’s heart. Oliver read a verse from the Bible and nearly was in tears as he reached the end of the passage. I believe the revival is upon us. 🙏🏽❤️🇺🇸
Just finished a demographics study. Wtf is going on in Korea. You guys need to demand your government promotes you guys having children. Funds and encourages and works to promote family first. Korea is the same way Europe and US are going.
I listen to this song on repeat for hours in a row- it is medicine to my soul- it screams out for the muffled, tired, beaten down broken spirit
The man is simply singing what we all are thinking. ❤
I am from Italy. I understood not just every single word that Oliver sings, it touched me deep down. His message is universal. Although singing about his generation, I am 65, I found my eyes watering. God bless you Chris "Oliver", y Hasta la victoria siempre (even psalm 37 says so...)
I'm in Ireland and in the EU we have EXACTLY the same. It's time to unite worldwide and end the elite bs that we are all subjected too 😢I truly belive that United we are stronger. This song is a global anthem with the same reaction from each person x
Bless u spread this around the world we need this
@@aoifeboland8100 There is a difference. For us europeans the taxes are higher xD
@aoifeboland8100 that is what I have been saying since I first heard the song. It is a global anthem. There are elites everywhere trying to implement a new world order that will starve most of the people to death. I am 60 and the song shook my soul.
This song is the cry of the innocent...we live it here in Brazil, it's incredible, it reached the world.
From the very first line, he literally pulls you in by your very soul! I held my husband while he cried listening to this. All he could say was, "He's singing what I think every damn day of my life and I'm so exhausted." People are tired and FED UP with working ourselves to an early grave just to provide the bare minimum for our families and *knowing* that nothing will EVER be enough. Yet, we get a front row seat to watch the lavish lifestyles of the 1%. Oliver is uniting us and we've been desperately waiting for this kind of movement! Much love and respect to all of you who continue to get up every day and put one foot in front of the other to support your family ❤ OLIVER ANTHONY FOR PRESIDENT ❤
Amen
@@TemplarsWildFire Amen!
Well said 100%!!
Yesssss
Song brings a tear to my eye everytime it plays
A lot of us FEEL this song in our core. His powerful voice expressing many of OUR feelings is what made this viral.
Don't know if this is what he meant when he sang about the "young men putting themselves six feet in the ground," but i come from a proud Military family and my beloved niece deals with PTSD from her two tours in Afghanistan. There is an epidemic of our military taking their lives at a rate of 22 a day. My Annie has struggled greatly with how we gave up the country. She lost Brothers and Sisters in Arms there, friends. The Afghans who helped them were left alone to face the Taliban. They were forced to leave their courageous Military Dogs in kennels in the hangers (some who actually had prices on their heads) to be tortured and slaughtered. The rich men north of Richmond are doing nothing but kicking Veterans down when they should be raising them up. i pray for a day when there are no more homeless Vets or Vets on food stamps and when they receive the help and the praise that they deserve. 🙏🇺🇲
🩵☘️🥀
You have it exactly. Why is your group of people suffering and dying to protect THAT group of people?
FACTS
@@citizenbobx They do it because they still believe in what the Flag stands for. They may not agree with some of the things being said, but they will fight to protect those people's Right to say it. They fight for those of us still standing beside them. Blessings.🙏🇺🇲
That was my thought too, but on listening to it many times, and how it is joined with the 5-3 obese person (a woman is more probably that hieght) I think he is talking about all young men, including civilians, because so many men have no role in society due to government paying so much welfare to women, women dont need, nor want a male presence in their household. young men are dying by thier own hand and by thier self destructive due to having no role in this new social order, where government is a womans husband and provider.
I think all of you are correct. This song speaks to so many people on so many different levels that are hurting right now. Oliver rightly points out that most of the issues faced by the common people are caused by elites who sit in positions of power over us and enrich themselves by controlling us and keeping us down. He does it so eloquently.
It's not just USA....Canadians here this and feel it to the core
This is an anthem for people all over the world. I've seen comments from Nigeria, Belgium, India, the UK. It's quite extraordinary.
Just heard it for the first time today and now I can't stop listening to it and watching the reaction videos. A 42-year-old blue-collar worker from Estonia.
All hard working people around the world feel that song. Greetings from Germany and stay strong
This song is from his soul touching our souls! What we all know, I love this young man, everything we know to be actually happening, so much suffering, others milking the welfare system etc; and what is located north of Richmond VA? We get it, clearly get it! It brought tears to my eyes!
Exactly. I guess some people have to understand that he's talking about Richmond, Virginia and realize DC is just north of there of I-95.
Yes, completely agree!@@victorialopez9717
Washington DC.....The Federal Government of the USA is North of Richmond Virginia.
DC
Yes, I know it is DC, it was a bit of sarcasm on my part@@astralartist4
It`s all about timing. Oliver hit it just right. Lightning has struck! Another piece of the puzzle, for the people, has just snapped into place. Almost there. This fall, and winter will be lively.
there is a bit of tension about
Night is darkest before dawn😊
Who the hell are you? You nailed it! Lightening struck, nice way to put it. The politician/ruling class gig is up. People are waking up. The iceberg is about to flip, and it will be violent and painful…but the peace that follows…will be lovely
Please God, I hope you're right. It's about time.
One can only hope. I’m so tired of all the craziness and disorder.
i am from austria. same shit here .... SIR OLIVER ANTONY, you are our voice!!!! let's stay together an change the world in peace !!!
Im a 56 yr old Englishman over the years iv heard songs that meant something special to me, every now and then, a song comes along that touches lots of people in the same way. But this is something else though, to touch so many people, worldwide, not just the usa, and of
all ages, creeds, colours.... And to make everyone go WOW!!! Incredible.
It's not just you feeling it buddy, older men are being brought to tears, because the song is telling their life story. 😔
I'm 73 years old and a patriotic American, The truth of this song hurts deep inside me. I fear for my grandchildren. God save our country.
This is hitting so many people.
A lady wrote a comment on a different Ch and her father was a 92 yo Veteran whom was crying listening to this song…amongst a lengthy list of comments from other Veterans. Younger men 30’s to 40’s just feeling the pain. Sad. We all need to come together it’s now or never…🙏🏽❤️🇺🇸
Yup, 47 yr old man. I cried driving my work truck blasting this for all to hear
You can turn on the words on youtube. The first time I listened to this I found myself in tears.
Thinking about what has happened to our country. Not that I didn't already know but the pain in his voicing of these lyrics brought the reality to the surface.
same
Well said
I'm an grownup men and i could'nt hold my tears.
48 years old, I don't shed tears very often, but this song did it to me. What has happened to this once amazing country has shattered my heart.
@@TemplarsWildFiremine as well.
100% agree with you. I'm a patriot, a vet, and I love my country. I cannot believe this is how I feel about my country right now. But it is. Oh it is.
❤
I'm from Germany and I'm listening to this song multiple times every day for nearly two weeks now (mostly reactions). This song bears a powerful message that is heard around the world.
Love the Catturd mug btw
The 99% of us need to guard this man . He's a global treasure ❤
This Song will be "Timeless ".. it speaks to the majority of All People because We Live It ❤
This song hits the soul. A sobering reality check. "Wish I could just wake up and it not be true but it is " . That killed me. And the suicide rate of young men in our country. I wept when i first heard it
I've never seen a song resonate with so many different people. It's authentic, raw and heartfelt.
It's proven to me that we have everything in common that matters. We better come together and save our country before we lose it all. For us and our children and future generations.
"We Didn't Start the Fire" and a lot of other songs that have been out for years have a very similar message, people just aren't listening to them.
Oliver is BRAND new. He got sober within thw last month or so and he put all his pain into his music. This song he knew would resonate so he sent the demo to a West Virginia radio station and the rest is history. His back catalog of music is pretty incredible.
Preach!! In Virginia myself. All his song are amazing!
And gave his life to Jesus
America, and the whole world needs to do the same thing, before it's too late.
Shalom ✝️
@angeltriumphant1664 You are absolutely right. I wasn't aware of that at the time, which only makes his story better.
@@cameronsnyder1246 PLEASE, agree with me in prayer that True, Spirit Filled believers will come up beside him, to teach and guide him...(without ulterior motives, Family doesn't do that.) he needs it - We all have, and we All do.
I imagine his life is pretty crazy right now; the adversary will use that to his every advantage to keep Chris' life too busy. Yah bless all yall in Yeshua's name. Family needs to support and strengthen Family. This young man is our lil brother... Shalom, Shalom 🙌✝️🙏
@angeltriumphant1664 absolutely!
From the UK...this song has just summed up how we all feel...In a few lines Oliver Anthony has articulated the feelings of the masses..and when I say masses I mean the good, righteous and fair people who cannot stomach the corruption of the few. Where are our liberties going, where is the justness in society, where are we encouraging the strong and helping the weak. I believe this song has hit the public consciousness because the righteous know wickedness when they see it.
This song resonates with the hearts of the working class and hit the most sensitive nerve of those who are hating on this song, the singer and the message because they know it's true.
Greetings here from the Dominican Republic!
Oliver has turned down $8 million from the corporate record companies. Said he does not want tours, jets, tour dates at big stadiums and does not want the spotlight. Very humble guy just hoping to help others cope with what he went through. Lives in an old camper he bought for $750 that has a tarp on the roof to stop the leaks. He has come back to God. My prayers are for him as he navigates this unwanted mine field.
Dude is amazing. What we should all celebrate. Integrity and honesty over control.
Rich men north of Richmond, VA is Washington DC
This is the new working mans anthem
Understood. I did absolutely no research before reacting so I came into this song fresh.
I lived in Newport News, Virginia when I was in the Navy, so I knew exactly where he was referring to the first time I heard the song.
Could Oliver be our new Thomas Paine and his little pamphlet of Common Sense?
It could be!
Oliver has tapped into that.
I was thinking that exact same thing.
Excellent analysis!!
Hope so.
This young man is singing what we are all feeling.
Im 67 and its been a struggle all my life. Our government has been getting worse every damn year. He speaks nothing but the truth.....
The emotion in this song is so GD genuine. It’s like the only friends in the world that this man has left are the 3 loyal dogs lying at his feet in the woods as he pours his heart out to the whole country……indeed….to the whole world. 🥺
I have listened to this song countless times because I'm watching EVERY reaction.
It is going world wide! All I can say is....God works in mysterious ways.
Facts! And I've subb'ed to each one I've come across!!! :) 💗💗🥰🥰🙏
Yes!!! YES!!!! AMEN!
I do the same from France.
I’m the same. I can’t get enough of watching reactions from all walks of life.
My husband and I are early 70s and we keep reminding ourselves how lucky we were to grow up when we did. That America no longer exists. I cry for my kids who won’t ever know that country. It’s a nightmare what’s happened to the USA🇺🇸
😢 Right !
i used to wish to one day move to the US. Sadly i no longer do, unless i become ridiculously rich, it’s no longer the peoples country. My country is also falling to pieces, thousands of years of history in the UK, it’ll all be over soon 😢
In France we have the same feelings. All people around 70 years old tell us how it was easy and peacefully before.
It's happening all over the world...
It’s funny you should mention that. I’m older than you by a few years and just had my class reunion and I stood up and said exactly that to my classmates.
We grew up in the best time ever in this country, before drugs, when you knew your neighbors, you left your doors unlocked, kids played in the streets safely until dark, times were relatively prosperous and about the only thing our parents worried about was Rock and Roll music!
I'm from Denmark. The first time I heard this song I had just been checking my salary. I was disappointed. I didn't expect much but still. And at that time I had been working 12 hour shifts for two weeks. "Wasting my life away" hit hard too and I know about Lolita island.
I felt like he pretty much described me at that exact moment.
he speaks to a whole generation, even in other countries. I am French, and this song resonates more than anything in what is happening in my country, in our countries, in the West, to the point where I had tears in my eyes. he is the ONLY artist who gave me this feeling and sensation.
Just subscribed, we ALL must protect this guy. If ANYONE you know or follow, speaks out against this, THEY ARE AGAINST YOU! PERIOD! Cut your ties, unsubcribe, unfollow them. There must be hip-hop/rap remixes of this. I've spent the last 2 days watching YT reactions of this song. Most every reaction in me feed is by people of color. Every review leaves the channel's owner at some point utterly speechless.
Yup the reaction vids are awesome it's so cool to see this going all over the place so everyone can feel it.
That's how the "Lord" works in mysteries ways.
Yes. He needs to be protected as he now has a massive target on his back.
I've noticed also that most of the reaction recommendations are black channels. Don't know if that's who's putting out most of the videos or if it's the algorithm, but interesting either way.
@StageWatcher If it were the algorithm, I can't it would be sending out just the reactions to this by people of color. I actually don't think the algorithm has a clue what to do with this. I believe it's all genuine at least to this point.
Your reaction is why this song has gone so viral and not just in the U.S. but world wide. It's a song for all free people vs those that want to take everything from us...all. This song will be legend for many years. Nice job.
Thanks brother.
Truth!
I love the song, and it’s interesting how much it resonates with people on both sides of the left/right divide. It’s made me see that part of the “rich men north of Richmond” plan is to divide people from each other. A song like this, full of soul and truth, cuts right through the division and hype, straight to our human existence, no matter where we hear it around the world. Much needed! 🤘
I know what you were saying to your Spanish audience, but honestly, everyone in this world is uniting on the song because it is affecting all of us. People are being screwed all over the world and he is speaking for us all❤
I've seen rappers choking up during this song. He is uniting us! ❤
This man sings to everyone. It's powerful, and everyone says the same thing, I feel the pain I feel the anger from his song.
It makes me tear up in anger, and it's beautiful.
I am german and 60 years old. And I also cannot remember anytime that was politically so bad. We are controlled, we are cancelled we are lyed to!
Soon they will kill us and enslave our children.
We have to stay United…blessings from 🇺🇸🙏🏽❤️
yep parents were from germany canada is ridiculous taxed to death and politicians all have the same agenda break the working man
Spitting out facts 💯 got the guts to tell it how it is!
The "young men" line breaks my heart everytime I hear it 💔💔💔😭😭😭😎
You cant focus group authenticity, and Oliver has just that in spades!!! God bless him and keep him!! 💘💗🥰🥰🙏🙏✝️
You are right brother. I am sixty years old and I have not seen anything this bad. Not even the late sixties/early seventies (Vietnam era). So many people feel exactly the way you do. That is why this song has went far beyond viral. This guy is hitting a nerve in this country.
The line about male suicide kills me... 'men putting themselves 6 ft in the ground'... hits hard
Some see the military as a way out only to put themselves 6ft in the ground fighting globalists wars. His lyrics have multiple meanings which makes it even more incredible❤😊
@@barbaran0 that's the beauty of fine art such as this poet... it means so many things to so many, touching the soul while unifying... solidarity brother
I hear it that way, too, as well as people working themselves to death just to put food on the table, and running out of money before they run out of month. I can understand how some may think crime might pay a little better.
Suicide from depression, working themselves to death, fighting and dying for our country, doing things in the streets that'll get them chased and shot, all trying to keep a roof over their family's head and the mouths fed.
No lie... Every. Single. Time.
a song we've never heard but a story we've all told.
We're all feeling what he is feeling, that's why this blew up. "People like me...people like you" says it right there. I have faith our country will get it together, I have to. We're American's that's just what we do!
You did this reaction justice with your honesty.. People who are saying its a conservative anthem are just plain wrong, these issues affect EVERYONE!(except rich men maybe lol) Oliver's song is a spark next to the powder keg that is the state of America for the working class right now. People can feel the real authenticity of his voice and the lyrics, which is really rare today.
I'm from Holland, it's the same here. This song is touching. Can't stop playing it, watching actual reaction video's which I usually never do. Commenting, which I also usually never do. It's a struggle for me too to make ends meet and provide for 3 kids.
This song hit me hard! I am a nurse working 16 hour days. 20 plus patients. I’m tired

I'm so proud of him and I hope he never has to work a nine-to-five from here on out 🙏🏼
He's speaking for all of us, he's the voice for ALL HUMANITY and I'm so grateful because nowadays people are afraid to speak up about anything out of fear of being arrested or worse just for speaking your truth and saying how they feel 🥺
Thank you Chris,
For literally getting me hope again.
It's so refreshing knowing there are other people out there just like me, thanks to this song. I'm so overwhelmed because I almost lost hope in humanity, I have been wondering what happened to kind, compassionate and loving people.

This is my region of Appalachia. The music is historic and traditional the lyrics are clever double entendres reflecting current conditions in America delivered with feeling... it's powerful

@forsakenjones4695 EBT is Electronic Benefits Transfer, or food stamps. It allows a person on a Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) to buy food. It SHOULD be limited to buying staple nutritional items, and each state program is different, but depending on a number of factors such as level of household income, expenses, and number of persons in household a different amount is deposited in a government account each month linked to a special card for food purchases only. Different states have different restrictions.

Such a great song….the words pierce the heart! Our country is a mess and this song is powerful! Thanks for sharing it! Your reaction is priceless, I hope many people watch this video!
This song is a snippet of the kind of conversations we have with our friends and families around a bonfire or at the dinner table.

LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for bullshit pay
So I can sit out here and waste my life away
Drag back home and drown my troubles away
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
[Chorus]
Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
[Verse 2]
I wish politicians would look out for miners
And not just minors on an island somewhere
Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
And the obese milkin' welfare
[Verse 3]
Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds
Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds
Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down
[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
[Chorus]
Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
[Outro]
I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for bullshit pay
I knew it!
I knew this guy was BS!
Hitting the LOW HANGING FRUIT, instead of the GYPSY MOTH CATERPILLARS destroying the tree!
Thankyou!
I'm with you my man it's a world wide problem great song I feel it 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thank you for not blurring the lyrics. This man is dropping the hammer.
Im sitting in my driveway right now, drinking a 6 pack after work in tears, listening to you fully understand the song. I love my country, I love America, but I hate what we have become, and more importantly, I hate what we have allowed to happen. We need to take America back. The world needs to take the world back. Ive never watched you channel before but you just earned my subscription.
This song speaks to people across all age groups and backgrounds about the frustration that is being felt. I am 64, a 20 year Navy veteran, and I miss the America that grew up in. It wasn't perfect but people at least had a hope of achieving something for their efforts.
You've expressed my feelings exactly. It's a daily battle not to fall into hopelessness.
Oliver made a promise to God💕. All the glory to God🙏
