WTF?!? These guys have tons of talent and people are bashing them??? Why? They are just writing about everyday struggles. Maybe they went through it...maybe they didn't. Maybe they are talking about a friend, uncle, aunt, cousin....etc. Enjoy how music is played and sounds. Sit back and chill....music is a very fine sound. Appreciate that you can listen and tap to a note.
I saw these guys at the Roxy theater on Sunset Strip back in about 2018, at the time, this was the only song of theirs I knew. $15 the tickets were and it was one of the best live shows I have been to. I went on a 12 month Glorious Sons binge after that!
I cannot get enough of this song! It sounds incredible--new and fresh, yet classic at the same time. And honestly its relatable AF right now (except I'm perfectly willing to take my meds to keep from completely going over the edge!) Also, when I first heard this song, I thought they were probably fellow Southerners (I'm from Arkansas). What a surprise to find out they're Canadian! Haven't heard anything else from them, but this definitely sounds like Southern Rock. Ironic that some of the most classic, iconic Southern Rock artists aren't from the South. Credence Clearwater Revival being the perfect example. (From CA).
Dude I had the same experience tonight. I turned on the radio in my car for the first time in a while and sure enough this was playing. The chorus made my jaw drop. This song is too damn good to ever see airtime on the radio lol
I put up a poster\sign in my cube saying 'I''d rather be crazy than to take these pills I'm sick of being okay against my will' I have to go to HR now wish me luck
Been a while since I could say it...but this piece still makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck after having heard it 20 times. Well done, Gentlemen.
Mental illness and drugs are an ever present factor through out history. Food has had issues as well. It starts with cooping skills, community, parents acting as parents, and self worth. Let one falter and many crumble. It is a messed up society with no one wanting to be accountable for ones choices, blaming others or drugs/alcohol for their problems. Not everyone gets a trophy or wins, life is what you make of it.
Just heard this song for the first time here in Phoenix,Az and wanted to hear it again. Like the lyrics and sound of this group. Will be watching out for these guys.
Lol Rock needed this song in particular? I know it's been on a downslope esp alternative but this is not the hail Mary we need. It's a good song but it's not mindblowing or culture-shocking enough to be anything more than catchy, radio-friendly modern-rock. Being broke and angry and addicted to drugs is relatable for many of us and they're talented musicians but there's nothing innovative going on here. Awolnation has been doing it, Imagine Dragons, Cage The Elephant, Tame Impala, Mac DeMarco, MGMT all have been doing it long before these folks.
Yeah, I heard this on KISW Seattle while I was just doing other shit and it froze me in place. It might be 'catchy', it might be 'hooky' but it rocks balls on when there's so little great stuff coming out. It hits a nerve.
Kingston, Ontario must have something in the water. That city gave us the Tragically Hip, The Headstones, maybe Greg Ball. Canada is good for at least 2 things....Music and good beer. Ballet dancers too
My genuine apologies. I had thought that I was replying to another post. Please just keep it 'one week away' at a time: there are resources and supportive friends will come out of the woodwork (or internet) to help you through. I've had a lot of bad weeks in a row and I'm not ready to throw in the towel or drop the gauntlet.
♪♫ Yeah, they sent the taxman! I lost my job, and You got hooked on Oxycontin! They shut the lights off! They took the car, and I bought a sawed-off shotgun! ♪♫
I love this song when i'm driving, almost drove off the friggin' road a few times. Luv watching the drummer, I thought he was Jason Bonham for a minute! if the drummer ain't "there", band is shit. Thanks for a great song guys!
It's like nirvana had an incestuous child with foo fighters and papa roach had a child with rage against the machine and then those 2 children had another child named The Glorious Son's. Lol. Fucking Love it.
Who's blaming here? Tell me that. Were in the sentence I posted did I ever blame anyone for anything? Point it out to me. Guarantee you can't. Because you don't know what you're talking about. You sound like one of these bitches out here talkin mad shit without gathering facts. So until you've done this, keep your uninformed opinion to yourself. Because you have no clue what I've been through.
No one goes into using drugs wanting to be an addict. And before you know it they are someone they never wanted to be. While it is their choice to start using drugs, it is sometimes so hard to stop especially when addicted. Even the most strong willed people can fall into this trap

"I'm sick of being ok against my will" what a great line.
Good funny doing love it
Tell that to everyone in prison
My favorite line as well!
Are’nt we all 😉 I know I am
Especially, if your are taking the pills
Never get tired of this song. ♥️ Side note: anyone old enough to remember Blind Melon? Brett reminds me so much of their lead singer Shannon Hoon.
Lm Curtis well, lets hope it’s just because of the looks
@@maxwellcatlett3653 absolutely. The way Shannon met his end still makes me sad. Such a waste.
Ive seen these guys live...he's alot like shannon hoon
@@mattcasteel84 Good call..
I see more Soul Asylum's Dave Pirner
This is the most wonderfully raw new song I have heard in years.
@Joey DoWork Douchebag.
Good tune
Love the song
Listen to the sos an open letter
Yes much agree
Best rock song in over a decade! Goose bumps every time, cranked, singing along in the car!!
This song is about being addicted too opiods
@@momentum1236 which most of America can relate lol beside all that it's just a good song cause it's real
finally a new band that tells me rOCK and ROLL will NEVER die!!! GO SOS
How did a group of canadians absolutely nail the American anthem?
Because its our to.
Its Spreading, Sort of like Covid, But we dont get vaccines
Great "fuck it" song, makes me feel better about life stress. Awesome song!
A fuck u moment lol...
Agreed
😂 I've got this song in a playlist I named "FUCK IT"! 😂
Yup
can't even begin to describe how much this song has helped me through some of the hardest times of my life. Thank you ten fold!
Same
Me 2...😁
Such a great tune ❤ talented band too
This might be the greatest live version of a song of all time. So different yet still hits every emotion of the album version.
i think this is actually way better than the studio version!!!
song of the year for me. i havent had a song get stuck in my head like this since "smells like teen spirit".
Just ran across this song last night.
I have a new fave song!
It took me forever to find out who sang it . Maybe you will find yourself singing it , like me
Why is this version soo much better than the version on the radio!!!??? Better guitar hooks, keyboard is so true, and the vocals are just kick azz!!
I love the organy sound. It's like worshipping at the Church of ROCK!
I think they just sound better live .
I agree its much better. The sound is crisp and organic. I really like this band. They are awesome. 👍🎸🎤
Heard that.
Check out the Church of Cosmic Skulls
This song isn't my life but it's the life happening all around me everyday
Yuuuup
I was there for about 4 years but I was able to move on. That addiction was complete hell.

This song is my newest anthem!!! Been jamming it steady for about 4 months. Loving this!
Sounds like my life
I've heard them all and this is by far the best version. The tone and effect of the guitar and the energy is off the charts
Why aren't these guys more famous?
John S O'Neill Because main stream music sucks. It’s all mumble rap and over produced pop music.
Cuz they they dont say yuh yuh yuh ayyye
They play them on the radio in Ohio
Missed shows and short sets. Went to see them twice now and only seen them do 5 songs love the music tho!
Cuz they're good lol
I just drove home in a blizzard from work and this song came on, makes me feel better lol
Last time I drove home in a blizzard Highway to Hell came on the radio. Damn near s#!$ myself! Lol

This was my life, however got my life back with my own control. Thank God. All the best to all of you's suffering. You can beat it too!!
The more I listen to these guys, the more i love them.
The radio actually played a song that was worth listening too! Hell must have frozen over 😂
I heard this on an extradition run on the job and it made my day. Good music is hard to find.
Dude I had the same experience tonight. I turned on the radio in my car for the first time in a while and sure enough this was playing. The chorus made my jaw drop. This song is too damn good to ever see airtime on the radio lol

😂 😂 😂 😂
Lmao
well?
Lagon78 yeah, I’m waiting for the follow up
I'm thinking about getting it tattooed.
The Sons came along just before Gordie was diagnosed... I think the Rock Gods knew what was coming, and helped us Canadians out a bit, eh?
Your definitely canadian because they always finish there sentences with eh
john simon best comment from another post. You Canadians kept these guys and sent us The Beebs. Smh
Helped us Kingstonians out for sure!
Just heard this song for the first time. LOVE it. Perfect anthem for my life.
Been a while since I could say it...but this piece still makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck after having heard it 20 times. Well done, Gentlemen.
OMG what a catchy tune....Awesome...
Just saw these guy live in Kingston on NYE. Great show, got to meet the band pre-show on stage as well. Cool dudes.
That's good stuff right there kids...ROCK N ROLL 😎
flat out at that ..
Yup!! That's social commentary through good old-fashioned, who gives a flying f#%k rock'n'roll!!
One of the best Canadian bands since the hip love you guys
This song makes me so happy! I love you guys!💜🌷
I know I should be grateful as to where I’m at, and I am.... but dam... I’m 55, struggling, pill-ed up, fed up and tired... this song speaks to me....
Love a good garage band that strikes home with taking meds for bipolar. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
This is one of my fav bands. I get to see them again in Feb. and I can't wait!!!
I fucking love this song! I wish it just had made just one more verse!! I don't want the song to end!!!!
There is no way to let the way this song gets you..... Except, go for it DUDES! It's perfect for everything that is today. Thanks
Today's youth is faced with depression, drugs, pressures of today's society. The food we eat is poison too. I pray every day for some.
I agree that it's misleading because these problems have been around for ages, but I don't see the explanation regarding the internet.
It's because snowflakes can't deal with adversity.

They're still making good rocknroll1 Nice. It's not dead yet.
Check out Greta van fleet. Classic style new rock
This can speak on so many levels to people. During an interview, they said interperate the song as you want to.
This song's going to blow up soon....
Damn straight..the lyrics speak for themselves amongst others....
About time. Rock needed this.
Lol Rock needed this song in particular? I know it's been on a downslope esp alternative but this is not the hail Mary we need. It's a good song but it's not mindblowing or culture-shocking enough to be anything more than catchy, radio-friendly modern-rock. Being broke and angry and addicted to drugs is relatable for many of us and they're talented musicians but there's nothing innovative going on here. Awolnation has been doing it, Imagine Dragons, Cage The Elephant, Tame Impala, Mac DeMarco, MGMT all have been doing it long before these folks.
Yeah, I heard this on KISW Seattle while I was just doing other shit and it froze me in place. It might be 'catchy', it might be 'hooky' but it rocks balls on when there's so little great stuff coming out.
It hits a nerve.
One song can’t save a genre xD that means all you’d listen to would be the one song.
@@christopherbrooks9478 go see them live they put on an amazing show!
@@christopherbrooks9478 Fuckin exactly
I’ve listened to this at least 20 times in 24 hrs!!! Soooooo good and right on point…especially in Canada…
I cant believe someone made a song about my life.
Nailed it. Same pain and angst. We ever meet, I owe you a beer and a shot.
Bro it's been forever since I felt so good about feeling like shit. Y'all Rock n Roll for sure!!!!!
Awesome song .
Can not get enough of this song. It just seems to hit the nail straight on the head, genius!!
Lovin this tune!! Heard it on KBPI out of Denver!! Dig it...
Same with me love it this is my life right now
Same love KBPI
@@WildClover931 I'm losing it
I need an oxy
Never lose that blues rythm and hard rock and roll sound. You guys you rock!
I can’t imagine life without this song now..you are actual glorious sons
Got to see these guys play just yesterday as they opened up for the Struts. I wasn't expecting them but I'm surely glad I saw them.
I'm sick of being okay against my will . . .
powerful words. I'm sure there are alot of people that can relate.
favorite lyric of the song
This is so my song
... they did it again.
GOLD SONG!

Thats awesome lol

So awesome to see Chris Koster make it with the sons. The man put his time in and around the Kingston music scene for over 20 years. Keep rockin man
Eastern Ontario is a Rock Factory. Rock on Friends of the Scene.

Love this song, about time someone put the world to music and lyrics that represents todays youth!!
Yeah I'm sitting here watching xfiles reruns listening to this bad ass song life is super encore encore
Just now hearing this on the radio....finally a good rock song!!
Saw them in Cleveland in November and heard this song but it wasn't on the disc i bought . Now i know why !!!
This was my life for 10 years....this blew me away
♪♫ Yeah, they sent the taxman!

I am sorry to hear that. Hang in there. Hopefully things will change for the better soon.
Love love love this damn song. These dudes can jam. Rock isn’t lost.
These guys are amazing!
Shane Mutter not really
Been there... gone thru THAT! What a Totally Awesome Song!!
This song as my theme: when I knew my marriage was over
Yeah, I've been there. It's gets better.
How in the world did I just now hear this song Amazing
I love this song when i'm driving, almost drove off the friggin' road a few times. Luv watching the drummer, I thought he was Jason Bonham for a minute! if the drummer ain't "there", band is shit. Thanks for a great song guys!
I've also almost driven off the road listening to this. My kid hates when I yell/sing with the song. Adult feels, kid, adult feels.
This song should be number one best song ever I have ever heard
Nirvana if they ran head-on into Blind Melon and came out on the other side
Good call
YES! Totally...
I dont see the Blind Melon comparison at all, would love to hear why you think TGS is like them.
Sean R cool story bruh. Just havin a little fun. Everything doesn’t have to be a debate
Not so much a story, but would love to hear why? Not being rude.
This was Canada’s comeback after they poisoned us with Bieber
Best youtube comment i ever read, you had me fall out of my chair i laughed so much. And as a Canadian i totally agree with you
Lucas Fertile ayyy good comeback lol
to be honest though, America welcomed beiber with open arms. which we thank you for.
Bieber came up on his own through TH-cam and social media. And he didn’t have to flash his teats about to do it. Just sayin.
lolololol
This is my son's theme song! Haven't heard a song that speaks so directly to me in a long time. I LOVE these boys.
It's like nirvana had an incestuous child with foo fighters and papa roach had a child with rage against the machine and then those 2 children had another child named The Glorious Son's. Lol. Fucking Love it.
LOVE THIS SONG!!! Great lyrics, great music, great beat... LOVE IT!
I wonder if they were mad at the other guitarist at the time of this being recorded. They didn’t put the camera on him one time. Poor guy
He didn't want to be on camera. My dad use to hide behind his mic. lol
This song needed to be written. Well said, good job.
I remember the last alt rock musician to by a shotgun
please bring them back as soon as possible .,. stay sfae, everybody
Hell yeah I hate my life too.
Same brother :highfive:
This song is the shit, trying to blow the windows out or the roof off. Got it blasting & singing my ass off LOVE IT!!!!
THE GLORIOUS SONS ARE " THE GREATEST ROCK & ROLL BAND ON THE PLANET "
Glorious sons .
i agree
currently i would agree
natureboy1469 or Greta Van Fleet
1 catchy song does not make greatness.
Just stumbled on this.....Ya!!!! These Dudes rock!!
Damn I feel old but this gets it.. I think James Hetfield will agree!!! Im taggin his ass!

At least I'm not the only one.
