    I just discovered this song yesterday. It had 500,000 listens on Spotify (WTF?! Why so few??!!! I've listened to it about 25,000 times since then, so hopefully it gets as many as some of the songs he has written for Taylor Swift or Panic. Butch, you're amazing. Thank you!!!

    Butch is one of the best songwriters I've ever heard. What a great song. He can come up with some hooks. I can't believe he's not more popular. Mind boggling.
    I'm still mad that M3 had to break up.

    Someday Butch will return to Connecticut..... he's got a lot of fans here that miss him.

    From Southgang to Marvelous 3 to solo and beyond, Butch is pure gold.

    marriage+child(ren)+love+hope+faith+lots of H2O=more time with those you love and no regrets! He has it going on and all of the above! His light bulb is screwed in right and his light is shining ever so bright. Unlike so many musicians today, left or right either way you look at him he is NOT self centered and totally in alignment with that divine spark within side of himself. AwEsOmE role model for the youngins !!! Love you much, Moon

    His songs are good, but the choruses are just monstrous. I've heard about 5 or 6 of his tunes and they all have amazing choruses.

    Butch always has been and will forever be my favorite singer/songwriter. Had the pleasure of hanging out with him 2010/2011 another show in South FL is needed!! Been too long BW

  • @bap172
    @bap172 12 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    i love how this guy can do anything and it sounds good... he's one of the few singers that doesn't need a synth or heavy vocal effects to sound good/sell a song!

  • @whiskymylove
    @whiskymylove 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This makes it clear. I've spent too much time tracking down old rare songs and let new good music pass right by. I'VE BEEN SO BLIND LOL

  • @decristo1021
    @decristo1021 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    This song is ridiculously good. Catchy chorus, smart lyrics, and it's so genre crossing that it could be pop metal from the 80s, early new wave or even a modern country song.
    Sure wish this sort of music was still what the masses craved.

  • @Daniellesautumn
    @Daniellesautumn 13 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This song just may be the end to my car stereo! I heard this on a promo for "The Middle"!! Don't watch the show but freaked when I heard it! LOVE LOVE the new album- congrats guys. Butch- your voice is as amazing as ever!

    Saw Butch and the black widows support pink in Swansea- god knows what year but fell in love with butch and the music. Listened to this song and sweethearts continuously for the last week. Don’t understand how I’ve never heard of them before. ❤️

  • @brianjamesthomas

    Been a fan since Math and Other Problems. Moved to Seattle and haven't gotten to seem him live except a trip home to Atlanta for Christmas 4-5 years ago where I got too damn drunk to make any sense when I met him at a bar after the show. What a waste. He was such a nice guy when I got to meet him behind the Georgia Theater before a show in '95 or sometime around there and was just as gracious that second time, despite my drunkenness.
    Hope you come out to WA sometime, ol' buddy. Miss ya.

    This is a great song. My band does Summer of 69, now I can't stop thinking that Brian Amams was only cool because MTV told us he was...LOL.

    • @screwyootube1
      @screwyootube1 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      ppsayl123 I was there. Bryan Adams wasn't necessarily "cool", but his music was fun. And MTV USED to be "cool", but decided to go with this generation's superficial nonsense, and dropped music - the height of "uncool".
      Today's pop stars think ALL of their fans' parents' music is/was "uncool". I guess the few rock stars still coming out like to put forth the same thought. Maybe that's one of the reasons Butch Walker will probably remain relatively unknown. Sad.

    • @tominrochester
      @tominrochester 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      screwyootube1 newsflash- Butch Walker was there too! The guy was actually getting played on MTV while you were busy idealizing Bryan Adams. You first need to realize this guy is Gen-X just like you and me and then go read the songs lyrics- maybe the main difference here isn’t anything about hating (or liking) “their parents music” but the fact that some people have a different perspective of their youth, when they look back now, and some people are in the exact same mental spot

    Has no one pointed out this is GOODBYE EARL by the Dixie Chicks, EXACTLY. Check out the verses. Aint calling Butch a stealer (Im a Rome boy too), but things get stuck in your head. SURELY someone along the way hear d Goodbye Earl in this one.

      +arronisaac Nah...For one thing, the Dixie Chicks Goodbye Earl was a cover (it was originally written by Sons of the Desert) and beyond that, though the two songs are similar I don't think they're close enough to warrant any kind of royalties...
