A song about the legendary Hank Williams Sr. who passed away at the young age of 29. He left a legacy of great music behind. Yet another great song about this man by Alan Jackson. I love how he incorporated the title of one of Hank William Sr.'s hit songs, "I'm so lonesome I could cry". Glad to hear this song again. 😊
@@PunkRockDiva1979 Shelton Williams better known as Hank III is a spitting image of his grandfather and sounds just like him when he does his grandfather's songs.
@@originalredneckgirl Not sure what you mean, Hank III does Country, then he does Punk/Grunge, and then does Sludge metal. All in one 3-4 hour show. I suspect you haven't heard the entirety of albums such as Straight to hell, Rising outlaw, Love sick, broke and driftin,Brother's of the 4x4. Check them out because III does a ton of different styles of music.
This is a tribute song to the legendary country singer Hank Williams Sr. Although he only recorded for six years, from 1947 until his untimely death in 1953, he's had one of the biggest impacts of any artist in country music. Unfortunately he was only 29 when he died in 1953. This song gives him the respect he deserves
"Where Were You When The World Stopped Turning" performed for the first time on a 2001 country music awards show not long after 9-11 (written by Alan). He has some beautiful songs and some that are really fun! Love him and his music. "Chattahoochee" is especially fun
In this song, Alan references Hank Williams Sr.'s song "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry", not only by mentioning the title, but also by the lyrics, "Just hear that whippoorwill".
I have a love/hate with reaction videos. On another channel, they were reacting to Jr’s Whiskey Bent and had absolutely not reaction to the lines referring to Sr’s songs. Again, as written before. Since they don’t know the genre’s, why not learn the background of the songs? Perfect example. I’ve seen 2 different reactions to “The Smell”. One channel actually Wiki’s the sings before reacting. It was amazing watching his reaction since he knew Ronnie wrote the song from a real incident...he also learned the all LS songs were written from real real experiences. Okay, done ranting.
You ARE SO AWESOME!!! This is a song that pays tribute, and yes, a haunting feel!! You rock!! My husband who has severe PTSD, is an Elvis freak, and I got him to watch your rreaction on "In The Ghetto!" He cried!! TY so much!!!!!
Carol Tillman I'm also an Elvis can. In the Ghetto is one of my absolute favorites. I'm not really a fan of most Gospel music, but when Elvis sings Gospel, I feel it to my bones. There's just something about his voice and the way he sings Gospel that touches me deep inside my heart. Please tell your husband I say "Thank you SOOOOOOO very much for your service to our country. It's because of you that we still have our freedom today and can rest easy knowing we are being protected by Very Special Warriors fighting for us."
See... this is country. Not that manufactured pop country crap... for real country with real emotion. A song that always gives me chills. Another great one is The Ride by David Allan Coe.
I like this song, probably one of my favorites. I like most all songs about Hank Williams. A little historical note you may or may not be interested in. Hank Williams was taught how to play, by a black man, an old blues player they called T Tot. Short for Tea totaler. There is a song on TH-cam by Hank Williams Jr. that tells a little about it.
We went to Montgomery to see Hanks grave because of this song and video....Alan's voice is so very country and his writing is like no other..he even wrote a song for Randy Travis that was a hit
N Hammock-I agree. That song sums up how so many of us felt, and where we were at on that horrific day. A heart breaking, yet so poignantly written, and sung by Alan Jackson.
I saw a comment requesting this song a while back. I knew it wasn't a good suggestion because he likely didn't know who Hank Sr. was. So many great Alan Jackson songs, and the person chose this one?? 🙄
The song is about Hank Sr, the name of the song is about the Bar called Midnight in Montgomery,Al where Hank Sr used to perform. And to most real country fans, this is one of Jackson's finest moments, sure he has a slough of good songs, but this is at the top!
You first got my attention with Elvis and Beatle reactions...but wow Alan Jackson he is my favorite country artist....I've seen him Feb 2001 at Westbury Music Fair Long Island
Amazing.. you mentioned 2 or 3 am.. Prior to hearing the end, with your comments, I was heading to the remarks, with my comment already planned: "I'm cruising down a lonely Interstate, between 2 and 3 in the morning, and when the song is over, I've driven another 5 miles, and don't remember it.."
MRM, I LOVE to watch your reaction videos. Your perpective on what you've listened too is very intuitive, refreshing and it shows us what a wonderful man you are and what a beautiful soul you have. My best to you and your family. Stay safe during this virus crisis. 👍🙋💖✌
Ty, There are numerous lines in this song that reference names of, or lines from Hank Williams, Sr songs. "see the stars light up a purple sky" and several others.
Sooooo eerily beautiful.....and no doubt Hank Sr legacy is untouchable....but I disagree one must know him to listen to Midnight in Montgomery. This song also speaks to the greatness of THIS song ..... MRM loved it apparently w/o knowledge of its deep and lengthy backstory.....as did when it was 1st released....it just draws you in and holds on! I did not kno Mr Hank Sr., George Jones, Conway Twitty, Tom T Hall or any of my daddy faves.... at that moment in life I was like no thank you. NOW....I truly love this song even more since my dad is gone .... reminds me of his love of REAL country music AND that folks are never gone as long as they are never forgotten.....
The song is about Hank Sr. He even mentions that he was wearing a Nudie Suite Nudie Cohn, was an tailor who designed decorative rhinestone-covered suits and Nudie custom designed several suites for Hank Sr.
I like the fact that u actually listen to the song then give your opinion about it.. great channel and great song.. there is a song called Knoxville girl by the luvin brothers and no one has done a reaction for this song and it's one of the classic
I lived in Montgomery for awhile in my younger years and went to that cemetary. At that time, there was a big guitar shaped tombstone. I found out a couple of years back they had changed it to what it is in this video.
I LOVE Hank, Sr and Hank, Jr. My wife and I went on a little weekend getaway last year and spent the weekend over in Montgomery. I’ve visited Hank and Audrey’s graves many times. But I’d never gone at night. So about 11:30, I told my wife I was heading out to Oakwood Cemetery and asked if she wanted to go with me. She was like, “No Way”! 😂. She told me I was crazy, but she knew I was serious. (Cemeteries don’t bother me. I’m a graduate of Mortuary College and after being an embalmer, cemeteries day or not aren’t ‘scary’. 😂). But I played this song all the way out there and I got some great pics with a full moon in the background. The sky was like a dark purple. It was amazing. I’ve got the pics on my FB page. She still don’t understand it.
Long time, no see, MRM. I have a playlist of highway/crusin' tunes. This has been on it for about 20 years or so. I don't cruise much anymore, gas costs too much to do that. But back in the 90's, you could get a gallon for around $0.75 and travel he backroads and relax. One stretch or road near my house, at the time (it's a housing development now), was a sod farm. During the summer, they would grow peppermint, and when the moon was full, and the mist covered the fields, I would have the windows down to inhale the thick scent of the peppermint and watch the moon reflecting off the mist. It gave that stretch of road an other-worldly vibe that was something else. Kinda reminds me of this song.
This song means so much to me...I'm from Montgomery but we moved when I was a baby, but my dad grew up only 2 blocks from Hank Williams house when he lived there and my Moma's grandmother is buried 3 gravesites from Hank Williams plot. I might not have lived there but all my extended family was in Montgomery and I spent nearly every summer with them...The one thing I don't like about this song (which I do love) is that the video was not made in Montgomery but in Nashville...it just takes some of the beauty of the song away for me...
Alan probably couldn't get permission to film in Montgomery. It's actually a pretty common reason for a thing not to be filmed in the city it mentions.
Ty, I'm agreeing with most folks here. You got a bad recommendation. You have to "get" Hank's place in country music to understand this song. As good as it is "own it's own", the kicker is when you know Hank's legend. A GREAT Alan Jackson song for you to do - I will NOT insert the link: "Alan Jackson - "Remember When" | Live at the Grand Ole Opry | Opry" This is another one you need to do with your wife in the room, even if off camera. I dare you!
Alan Jackson has a ton of good hits. cant think of a single song he did that I didnt like. I would HIGHLY reccomend the song " Where were you when the world stopped turning" He wrote it right after 9/11 about the terrorist attacks and its AWESOME!!! I remember thinking the first time I heard it, that I felt or thought almost everything he mentions in the song.
A few suggestions: Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley & Allison Krause, You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive by Darrell Scott, and Where Were You by Alan Jackson, and Zach Levi performing Cry Me a River.
This about Hank Williams Sr. Kind of hard to understand unless you know Hank Sr. story. My dad loved Hank Sr, so I grew up hearing his songs. There is a movie about Hank Sr. that might be on you tube somewhere. His music was classic old style and original country. Not even close to the style, his son, Hank Jr, sings.
When I lived in Montgomery many years back, I went to that cemetery and saw Hank's grave. At the time there was a giant guitar there for the tombstone. When I saw this video, I got on the phone with the Montgomery PD and asked if his tombstone had been moved. They verified that it had and the hat is there now.
I am from Montgomery Alabama and, he is singing about Hank Williams senior, and if you go to his grave at midnight and put a beer on his grave you might catch a glimpse of him and if you walk away for 15 and come back the beer will be empty.
This song was about Hank Williams Sr. A lot of country singers claim to have seen or talked to him. Which is a bit rough, sicne he's been gone for a while now. The ones who claimed to see him also had some measure of musical success.
I am from Texas and I was living in Alabama a few years ago That was my dream to go visit his Grave and see if I could see him or hear his voice on a EVP before I kick the bucket tho I will do that one day

This song is a tribute to Hank Williams Sr. He was the original king of country music.
he's the grandfather of country no one can sing like him. His Son comes close but not as good as Hank Sr
@@PunkRockDiva1979 Shelton Williams better known as Hank III is a spitting image of his grandfather and sounds just like him when he does his grandfather's songs.
Justin McCain in my opinion he is the founder of country music
@@robertbradley6946 He does and I really wish he hadnt went the grunge country way but .. everyone has to be their own person right

@@janetgiddings5538 oh yes! forgot about those! And Here In the Real World!!!
Forgot to say that you HAVE to see the video for Alan Jackson's song "Chattahoochee". It is one of the coolest, most fun videos!
Another good one about hank is The Ride by David Allen Coe.
Awesome song
I agree this is not a good one about Hank you should try
Penny Tumey one of my favorites 💙
Yes! One of DAC's best songs I think.
One of my top 5 all time songs.
In country Hank Williams Sr. Was one of the biggest. He died at 29 yr. This song is about his legacy
I love Alan Jackson. This song is very wistful like haunting. Thanx Tye.
I have always used hauntingly beautiful.
In this song, Alan references Hank Williams Sr.'s song "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry", not only by mentioning the title, but also by the lyrics, "Just hear that whippoorwill".
Yes
Midnight was the name of a bar Hank Sr performed at in Montgomery!

Man this song always gives me goosebumps. Hank will forever be a legend.
You ARE SO AWESOME!!! This is a song that pays tribute, and yes, a haunting feel!! You rock!! My husband who has severe PTSD, is an Elvis freak, and I got him to watch your rreaction on "In The Ghetto!" He cried!! TY so much!!!!!
Wow! Glad to be of help. Tell him I said stay strong
Will do, and again, thank you!! He watched several videos tonight.

I'm also an Elvis can. In the Ghetto is one of my absolute favorites. I'm not really a fan of most Gospel music, but when Elvis sings Gospel, I feel it to my bones. There's just something about his voice and the way he sings Gospel that touches me deep inside my heart.
Please tell your husband I say "Thank you SOOOOOOO very much for your service to our country. It's because of you that we still have our freedom today and can rest easy knowing we are being protected by Very Special Warriors fighting for us."
Hadn't heard this in quite a while....loved hearing it again! RIP Hank!
"The Ride" by David Allen Coe, it's another tribute type song to Hank Williams and it's one of my favorites.
That gave me chills..love Alan Jackson
I love Alan Jackson. Amazing man and singer! Cool song, especially when you get the subject!
This song always gave me chills
Exactly
See... this is country. Not that manufactured pop country crap... for real country with real emotion. A song that always gives me chills. Another great one is The Ride by David Allan Coe.

Drive (for daddy Gene) about Alan's dad...you would enjoy it
Drive makes me tear up Everytime I hear it...great song!
Love, love, love Alan Jackson! He's been entertaining for 30 years now! Saw his Omaha concert this year, September 13th!!! Still FANTASTIC at 60!!!
We went to Montgomery to see Hanks grave because of this song and video....Alan's voice is so very country and his writing is like no other..he even wrote a song for Randy Travis that was a hit
This is my favorite Alan Jackson song. I get chills every time I hear it.
My favorite country singer paying homage to a legend. Been listening to this since I was a kid
Still say listen Alan Jackson “Where were you when the world stop turning” it’s about 9/11
That one rips my heart out but I still watch the video...always will.
That song was inducted into congress on my birthday 2001 - will always be special to me.
I cry everytime.. I lost so many loved ones.
He has played it
N Hammock-I agree. That song sums up how so many of us felt, and where we were at on that horrific day. A heart breaking, yet so poignantly written, and sung by Alan Jackson.
How long before Ty gets it that this song is about Hank Sr.?
Not until he knows who Hank William is. After all he didn't know Nat King Cole either
I saw a comment requesting this song a while back. I knew it wasn't a good suggestion because he likely didn't know who Hank Sr. was. So many great Alan Jackson songs, and the person chose this one?? 🙄
I was wondering the same!
The song is about Hank Sr, the name of the song is about the Bar called Midnight in Montgomery,Al where Hank Sr used to perform. And to most real country fans, this is one of Jackson's finest moments, sure he has a slough of good songs, but this is at the top!
Wow, give Ty a chance! He's a kid. Can't know everything at once. At least he's open minded and is learning!!! 😉
RIP Hank Sr. He passed away in his car on the way to a show. Alcohol took 2 greats too early, Hank Sr and Keith Whitley.
RIP Hank Williams, with such a great tribute to a great country king.
This is a great one! Alan Jackson has a whole lot of great songs! Great reaction by you too! 👍🏻❤️🌟

I just discovered this song someone just asked me to sing this with them on Smule I started listening to the song and done fell in love with it
The references to Hank's songs & lyrics in the lyrics of "Midnight in Montgomery" is a technique which adds so much to this song.
Your reaction was the exact same as my first reaction sooo many years ago! This has become one of my all time favorite songs.
OMG my all time favorite singer ... thank you so much for playing an Alan Jackson song .. xoxo
One of my personal favorite songs Alan did. It's about one of his idols the Late Great Hank Williams Sr.
Alan never sang a bad song
Agree 110%
Truth 100!!!
That www. one wasn't the best song. Lol. But still love me some AJ.
Facts
Well except for Chatahoochie
One of my favorite songs by Alan Jackson!
MRM, I LOVE to watch your reaction videos. Your perpective on what you've listened too is very intuitive, refreshing and it shows us what a wonderful man you are and what a beautiful soul you have. My best to you and your family. Stay safe during this virus crisis. 👍🙋💖✌
Thx sis!
This song with the steel guitar it's so eerie....Amazing song!!! R.I.P Hank
Ty, There are numerous lines in this song that reference names of, or lines from Hank Williams, Sr songs. "see the stars light up a purple sky" and several others.
Great song! Alan Jackson always delivers great music!
Hanks always waiting there 🎶🎶
*Singing*
One of my top ten favorite songs EVER! I grew up listening to this. Love it!
This song is one of those songs thats plays on the radio when you are driving on the interstate at night for a long time.
Yes
This song gives me chills and one of my favorites ❤️
Hank Williams Sr.

There are several shots of Hank's grave site, which is in Montgomery. But yeah, they didn't show his statue.
Been a fan for a couple years but never knew you were from panama city! Panama City native here. ONE LOVE
I feel you bub!!!!i get goosebumps evertime i hear it!! Love it when ur on that long drive
I still love this song. Its amazing!!
That song always gives me chills.
Whenever I need a recharge after listening to today's country pop, this is my go-to song...
A haunting melody.
Dude, so glad i found this vid in my feed. I followed you but didnt see the old stuff. Great song
God bless you too, Sir!
The Hank William's Sr. museum in Montgomery is awesome! Love visiting that city!
My all time favorite country song.
Know this song by heart. First on my playlist For The Road
This song is so pretty. I love it, so happy you reacted to it.
Ty, I'm agreeing with most folks here.
You got a bad recommendation.
You have to "get" Hank's place in country music to understand this song.
As good as it is "own it's own", the kicker is when you know Hank's legend.
A GREAT Alan Jackson song for you to do - I will NOT insert the link:
"Alan Jackson - "Remember When" | Live at the Grand Ole Opry | Opry"
This is another one you need to do with your wife in the room, even if off camera.
I dare you!
This was my grandfather's favorite song by Alan Jackson.
You are 100% right this song is best at night while driving!
Awwww! This song! Epic and haunting.
Glad you checked this out. Hope it inspires you to give Hank Sr songs a listen.
Alan Jackson has a ton of good hits. cant think of a single song he did that I didnt like. I would HIGHLY reccomend the song " Where were you when the world stopped turning" He wrote it right after 9/11 about the terrorist attacks and its AWESOME!!! I remember thinking the first time I heard it, that I felt or thought almost everything he mentions in the song.
Alan Jackson...."Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning"
❤❤❤ This song!!! Hank Sr.

Tribute to Hank Williams Sr. Who died on his way, close to midnight, to a New Year’s Eve show. He died at 29 in the back of a Cadillac
Those lines in the chorus, "Hear that whippoorwill" and "Stars light up the purple sky" ought to be a clue for what song you should review next.
I always loved this song
I have listened to "Midnight in Montgomery"...at midnight...in Montgomery...at Hank Sr's grave.
Alan is a very Good loving man. Check out his gospel album called Precious Memories. We played it at Mom's funeral. Old country gospel.
Forgot about this song. Good one.
Hank and his wife's gravesite is incredibly beautiful. Give you chills when you visit there.
Hey man, thanks for releasing so many videos here lately. I've really enjoyed watching.
A few suggestions: Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley & Allison Krause, You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive by Darrell Scott, and Where Were You by Alan Jackson, and Zach Levi performing Cry Me a River.
I understand about traveling music...mine was always Credence or Allman Brothers. ;-)
This about Hank Williams Sr. Kind of hard to understand unless you know Hank Sr. story. My dad loved Hank Sr, so I grew up hearing his songs.

Dude it's not night driving music. It's a tribute to a Legend
He referenced several of Hank's songs. Hank passed on New Years Eve on his way to a show. I believe he was 29

It’s always night time when I listen to this song.Just another person that
“Get’s it.”
This song was about Hank Williams Sr. A lot of country singers claim to have seen or talked to him. Which is a bit rough, sicne he's been gone for a while now.
The ones who claimed to see him also had some measure of musical success.
Fun fact: I was born in Montgomery Alabama and have visited Hank Williams Sr's. Grave site many times, but never at midnight.
Love Alan
I am from Texas and I was living in Alabama a few years ago That was my dream to go visit his Grave and see if I could see him or hear his voice on a EVP before I kick the bucket tho I will do that one day
