The elderly gentleman acting as the bus driver also plays "Old Man Wrigley" in another terrific music/story video; Brooks and Dunn's "Believe", which includes a powerful vocal by Ronnie Dunn.
My favorite brooks and dun song of all time. I believe i had an old lady I used to visit all the time when I was a kid. That song reminds me of her so much. The sweetest old lady ever.
She put him out, snuffed his spirit. Hard to conceive of the pain of coming back from possibly years of fighting during WWII supported by the memory of the woman you love and want to spend you life with to find that. However the reality is so common for soldiers that we used to sing about "Jody", a fictional character back in the civilian world who was taking our girlfriends and wives while we were serving (sometimes resulting in a "Dear John" letter), to keep cadence as we marched. The songs, which had differing and often comical themes, were often called "jodies". One of my favorite jodies addressed how crazy we'd have to be to "re-up" (reinlist). We routinely sang it as we marched, although jodies are most common during initial training, not so much when serving in your regular unit. Important to note, most soldiers who suffer such an experience don't drink themselves to death, nor do they suffer from PTSD, they work through it and eventually happily get on with life. Incidentally, Alison Krauss may have the most beautiful voice I've ever heard.
The actor in the video is Rick Schroder who also directed the video. The little girl at the end is Rick's actual daughter. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiskey_Lullaby
@@tylerjcalvin it’s an error in judgement, ergo a mistake. I get that you must have been cheated on and it’s colouring your opinion, it’s understandable.
My dad never truly came back from war. He was gone most of my life and when he was back he wasnt here. He left us when he couldnt handle life anymore. The hardest part was making sure my younger siblings didnt carry any guilt or responsibility. And making sure my mum knew she did everything she could and she was enough. Nobody could have been enough to change where his mind was. I still love him miss him and am mad at him EVERY SINGLE DAY
All war is, is grown men arguing and young men dying. I wish people would just show each other more love in this world. I'm sorry for the loss of your father and I wish you nothing but happiness and love. Stay strong and God bless.
I didn't come back the same either. So sorry for your loss. I'm a two time widower but the things we saw really effected us. I'm still an alcoholic but it takes a lot to deal with what no one should have to see
@@reneepeacock176 Not only children my wife saw my Grandmother a day after we cremated her she said i was deep asleep and she saw her next to our bed all burned and dark grey smoke around her and she was calling my name then my 5 year old daughter started seeing things on the celing and in corners she was scared and cried alot during that time we asked her what she saw and she said someone was floting in our house. I don't know what to believe anymore.
"She put him out. Like the burning end of a midnight cigarette." *bars* Song is an excellent example of you never really know how your actions effect other people.
Paisley has another great music video which is both comical and heartfelt "Waiting On A Woman". Fans of the late beloved actor Andy Griffith will also enjoy the video. BTW, while not evident in this video Brad Paisley is a guitar master as you will see if you watch more of his videos. Keith Urban is another guitar master in the country genre who has many great music videos. On the military theme check out his "For You"...terrific production. When you watch Urban's creations you'll see the amazing variety of styles within the country genre.
This hits hard even for people who have never experienced that stuff. It hits even harder and deeper for people who have. This will bring me to weeping tears every time.
Great Reaction Video...... This Song is a Rollercoaster...... As other have mentioned, the Actor playing the Soldier is Rick Schroder (Child Star from a show called "Silver Spoons" and as an adult on "NYPD Blue"...... He was Also the Director and the Girl at the End that watches their spirits walk away is Rick's Daughter....... Allison is a Legend..... I believe she still holds record for most Grammy's...... 36, I think..... Brad is a phonenominal Song Writer........ He has both Touching and Funny Songs in his library....... To get an understnding of his outlook listen to a song called "This is Country Music".........
Your reaction was amazing.First time I heard this song with the video it made me so mad because I served in the U.S Army and witness a couple of situations like the one in the video and it was so sad.I enjoy watching you and Samantha together doing reactions.I think you"ll like "Don't take the girl" by Tim McGraw.Keep up the great content my brother and happy new year to you both.Respect from P.R.
my great grandpa fought in ww2 and my uncle fought in vietnam, i have no idea how hard it is personally but i know its hard. thank you for your service sir i hope your life is good now!
She madeeee this video so good, she knew, didn’t spoil it and was jus like just waitttt boyyyy, her lil lip singing and vibing and letting you take it in.
This is the first time I've seen the video but have listened to the song many times and it get's me very time. The sad thing about the video is just how true it was. So many men would come home from war to find their wife or sweetheart with another man, it happened to my step-granddad in the WWII, he went home home one day to find the door locked so he knocked. His wife opened their bedroom window and told him to clear off as she had another man now. So sad and after everything he'd been through. But her lose was our gain 😁
I love this OG version, Allison Krause’s voice is phenomenal, but Drew Jacob’s and Caitlin Curtis did a cover and it is also phenomenal, I like the little twists that Caitlin puts on her parts.
You gotta be the person you watch a movie with that asks you questions like the person you're asking the questions of has seen the movie before lol like youve seen as much as i have
“She put him out like a burning end of a midnight cigarette” still one of the most heartbreaking but beautiful openers to a song I’ve ever heard But regarding to the end, It’s popular belief kids can see spirits, so it was basically him forgiving her in the after life, then they “live” peacefully
As I understand it, the little girl at the end is Ricky Schroeder's daughter and the names on the graves are his parents along with their birth/death dates.
This is probably one of the saddest most beautiful songs I've ever heard there another song that is equally if not more powerful and emotional it's a song called The lighthouse song by a band named nickel Creek I think both of these songs are real tearjerkers but they're very powerful and beautiful songs
"She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette." How do you put out a cigarette? You crush it in an ashtray or throw it on the ground and step on it.
That all played out over several years of his drinking, and her drinking after he passed. The husband was played by Rick Schroeder, and the two kids in the video was Rick's actual son and daughter and played their kids in the video. In the end, he reaches out with forgiveness and they come back together in the afterlife; hence the daughter smiling as they embrace, that mom and dad are back together.
That is the part that feels wrong in this video. She told him to come back and they will start their family. He comes back to her with a man in their bed. They didn't have a family.
They never insinuated in the video they had a family. They never got back together after he found her with the other man!! Neither one of them could get over each other and both of them drank theirselves to death. They used the little girl at the burial to be able to see the couple re-unite in the afterlife. Usually kids and animals are rumored to see things adults can’t see. They aren’t saying the little girl is their kid 🤦🏻♂️!!
@@stinky60096they didn’t have a family. The lady posting this is WRONG. They used the little girl in the end as a way to show him forgiving her and they get back together in the afterlife. They say little kids and animals can see ghosts. The little girl isn’t their daughter. That would mess the whole video up. That doesn’t make sense. They never got back together after he discovered her with another man.
This sort of stuff did happen, and I wouldn't even say it was all that uncommon. My dad served as a Navy pilot in WW2 and was married just before he deployed. His honeymoon was them driving from the Ozarks out to San Diego for him to ship out. She wrote loving letters all through his time abroad. He saved them and I found them in the attic after he passed, and there were no signs of any trouble. Then when he returned he was first sent to a base in New Jersey and shortly after she walked into the mess hall, found him, said she wanted a divorce and immediately left. He was so stunned that she was gone before he realized how far she was from her home in the Missouri Ozarks. There were various rumors including a number about infidelity, but I won't claim to know the whole story. I do know he helped her occasionally, in spite of his pain, to get back on her feet again after they split. And they maintained some level of contact because I found a letter from around 1990. I know it wasn't a secret from my mother and she also married before her first husband deployed. That husband was KIA and my parents met at a university after the war. Before my father passed in 2012 I showed him this video. He was silent until the end, then just nodded. It hit too close to home.
Great reaction, guys! I can recommend you react to Keith Whitleys song "Don't close your eyes" as well. Amazing song by one of the best country artists ever.
When he says she put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette is figurative to the way you crush the cigarette down into the bottom of an ashtray. Meaning that she crushed him, crushed his heart.
I know the feeling in this song. I came home from deployment, standing there in my dress whites with a dozen long stem roses. She never showed. She left me for someone else saying we grew into 2 different people and not as a couple. This was back in 2011 and I still haven't recovered. It's a hard reality these days. the marriage rate in the military is very low.
Other country songs that you should listen to… Stay by Sugarland (official video) 7 Minutes in Heaven by Reba McEntire (also Does He Love You official video We Shall Be Free by Garth Brooks I Believe by Brooks and Dunn Wait in the Truck by Hardy Little Girl by John Michael Montgomery Girl Going Nowhere by Ashley McBryde live performance from her Grand Ol Opry Debut.
I saw Brad Paisley at jazz fest so it wasn't one of his concerts. He finished all the songs there though. This was a while back when he was still recording his fifth gear album. Me personally I have never seen anybody that can play the guitar the way he can. His hands move so fast you literally can't see them.
This song hits me pretty hard. I served in the Army for 8 years. When I came off deployment, I didn't know what was wrong yet but found out later I was suffering from PTSD, depression, and high anxiety. When I first came home, all I could do to halfway stop the nightmares and night terrors was drink and drink alot. So that's what I did. To the point I was coughing up blood and didn't care about anything or anyone. You see clips where people come home and there are parties at their battalion HQ and families are there? Yeah, I came home to an empty airport at 2am with half the lights turned off. But coming home from deployment, realizing you really don't have what you thought you did then drinking yourself to death! I was about as close as a person could get!
I hope you're doing better. The lack of community and support when returning home kills more service members than just about anything else. We need better systems set up for our vets.
It's taken a while but I feel like I am at least heading in the right direction! You have to figure my unit was one of the earlier waves going over. I came home in early 2003. They really had nothing in place. I have personally seen half a dozen suicides due to letters saying the significant other had moved on and wasn't waiting any longer. I didn't get that letter over there. I came home and found out she was with my best friend at my brothers house. Everyone knew, my family, her family, all of my friends et. and nobody said anything. That started my diet of Jack Daniels breakfast lunch and dinner. Eventually adding other narcotics to try and self medicate while sitting alone in a house full of firearms. I was definitely not in a good place. Most of my days I would sit at my kitchen table with my JD and whatever else I had usually in powder form and a pistol and waited. @@SilverFlame819
