Anyone still listening to this in 2024? 🇺🇸💪🏻
I was today years old ( I'm 66years old) when I heard this, I'm British, so that's my excuse. What an amazing song, what an amazing singer!
Yes. Love this song
yes... and I like it.
Another Brit here. Fantastic song! @@annehoward140
Been in my favorites for about 5 years.
Anyone out there still love this? Come on Americans!
I love it
Damn right I do!!!
Not American,British and Proud,What a Tune.....
Found this a few years ago loved it ever since.
Nope
Born in '78 my brother in '72. My Dad had a top security clearance in the military, so I was often sent to live with my WW2 combat vet Grandfather & Depression Era Grandmother. All his friends were WW2 Vets. When 9/11 happened, for better or worse, my brother and I & many of our friends all went off to war. It was our legacy. The WW2 generation taught us much. We idolized them. We were raised by soldiers with dirty calloused hands who made honest money. We passed our youth across this nation where we grew to understand, that family, the word of God and faith was its demand and life, and death came from the flag above this land. The WW2 generation taught us much. We idolized them. They taught us, the rich man writes the books of laws the poor man is forced to defend but the highest laws are written on the hearts of honest men. So, if that cup was passed to us to do what must be done, on a chunk of stone carve these words, "We were just our nations sons." Our motto- "In Pride we serve, our duty to fight, our Very Honor to DIE!" This song reminds me of our buddies than came home in a box with a flag draped over it. Here's to them!
Amen!
I use to drink a lot of beer I don't know what it tastes like I've been so straight to a veteran
He'll yeah still listening in 2024
I still hear it on the radio most days👍
A Knoxville station.
Doesn’t matter what style of music you think this is. It’s the most brilliant storytelling you’ll ever hear.
youre spiritual being
Bob Dylan is the best story teller pal
Pure Americana Brothers and Sisters. This is an American tale! Many of us have lived this story,or one similar.
Slim Dusty with 107 Albums rates a mention!
My great grandfather was a moonshine runner from the age 8 in Kentucky, once he married my great grand mother all was put to a halt..However, in his shop sat a secret covered small still for hunting season & the boys it was tucked away in the corner as it was a top secret operation..Shhh..our secret, Lol. My great grandmother found it a few times thru the year & out it went!
One of the greatest songs ever written. An American classic.
Lol I'm kinda related he's my mom's exes cousin
Dang
I’m Swedish and I like the authentsity❤
Facts .... Here is a wee reminder from Scotland 🏴 ,. To get this back on. Blastin loud pround.😁..... Much respect to ya,
🤜🤛
Absolutely
Copperhead Road Is In My Hometown Of Paintsville KY , And Back In The 50s And 60s This Is Actually How Us Poor people Mad Our Living And Working In The Coal Mines.
I stumbled on Steve Earle..yesterday
And now for the last 24hrs it's all I can hear in my head. I'm in my 70's and at this age I'm enjoying the trip. I don't want it to disappear. Anyone out there is welcome to enjoy the trip with me. Thanks for the upload.
✌Peace!✌
So did i, I was watching top gear east coast trip and this was playing in a tyre shop where Jeremy stopped at, and one of the guys who works there was dancing to this
Much love and congrats on expanding your music library! I'm 51 with the early onset of dimintia as a complication from MS. I much like yourself, am branching my music out. It's a great release from a problematic world. Stay strong and keep on rocking bud.
@@bradheath4200 ubet. Peace ✌
His son was awesome too, God rest his soul Justin Townes Earle.
It is a catchy song love 😘❤️ it !! ❤️😘😂💕👍
I was curious so I just did the math and 100 pounds of yeast is enough to make 6500 gallons of Mash. Went to Town twice a year so 13,000. After Distilling the mash, that's about 4,000 gallons of alcohol. Moonshine season Runs about 26 weeks. That'd be running about 153 gallons a week. 3 to keep, 150 to bootleg. Sounds like He knew his stuff when he wrote this.
You lose a lot in the process.You don't get quite as much as you'd think but the price for selling makes up the difference.
Uhhhhh,so a friend in the business told me.
@@doughesson yeap it's alot of work, alotta sugar, alotta corn, alot of yeast, alot of copper, alotta risk. But a TON of FUN.
At $100 a gallon. Sounds like a good vocation to me!!! Better to make 1000 gallons a year though. Lol
@@lauraphilyaw6879 that would be one hell of a year but you would have some deep pockets.
@@doughesson I've heard sometimes you get as little or less than 1 gallon of Alcohol out of every 10 gallons of mash or as much as 1 out of 4. Purrre alll key halll.
Talk about classic music, do people still listen to classic music?
Am 84 yrs old-Love this music-Thank you-
75 here
Right on
I’m 61 & l love it
I'm with you 62 still hanging
When y'all got it still.No age limits.Im 60 been rocking for years.
found this today (December 6, 2020); going deaf fast, so glad I get to hear this song again before I hear no more --- awesome Steve Earle
I just found this like a week ago. It’s truly amazing
You poor soul, music is what keeps me alive couldn't imagine losing my power to hear it. Hope you get a miracle somehow, good luck.
try lions mane shroom please.. could help
Worse ways to go my friend.
Dec. 15 :)
Both a 60, 80s, and 90s song at the same time. Masterpiece
Rip pawpaw Jess, almost like this song was dedicated to your life, made and ran moonshine his whole life just like his deddy. Got his first job in the coal mines when he was 49 years old.
This in my honest opinion is one of the best songs ever made... 2024 and still jamming
I lived in the swamps of Florida for years lol we made a lot moon . Haha
Ya ok you sang you did 2 in nam I call BS
check out KEEP THE WOLVES AWAY UNCLE LUCIUS
check out keep the wolves away
This is an awesome song but best song ever made? Really? You sure missed out on a lot of good music in the last 36 years then 🤦🏼♂
I'm a brown guy from mauritius and i love this
No one can ever replace this song, it's one of a kind. And it will always be reminberd
106 folsk, and I'm thr first to see the joke
@@redneckroy8947fhryrtt
Miss these times. Best yrs of my life
I agree@@V0rtexM
I guess that is English somewhere. Leave your cousins alone hahaha
It took almost 40 years to get my head back on straight after 'Nam, but I'm still here, and digging great music.
Welcome Home Chief. Glad you got straight, finally. Especially glad you're still here! (Did my time at the tail end of Nam, but, being a girl, I wasn't in country. Cannot imagine it...)
buddha
thank you for your service sir both of you
Chief 762 thank you for your service to our country,working through Iraq myself
+Cobra Army working myself through the gulf God Bless
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life.
Thank you I needed this more then you know
THANKS
You have no idea 😢
Thank you. Recovering from surgery. It's touching that a stranger cares about strangers.
the dark thoughts, overthinking and doubt are reinforced by incompetent fraternally corrupted police organizations and medical unions. we live in a bad planet
Not a country music fan at all, but damn, this is a great song. Still a banger over 35 years after it was released…….
Country, soft rock,.. -Whatever.... I just know that it's a GREAT song 🎙️🎸
They play it on classic rock stations as well.
I actually grew up on copperhead road and this song is more truth than you would think! This song reminds me of those days when mountain justice was real and life was simpler.
You brah, you Ozarks too? (LOL)
Top side of Alabama to and from Tennessee.
Seems a lot more simple and effective, think we need to get back to those principles
The song is about Northeast Tennessee and the Smokeys not Arkansas and the Ozarks
@@tweetuums I realize this , and hope you realize that the majority of the earliest settlers in the Ozarks have DEEP and FOUNDATOINAL roots that began in TN & KY, therefore those spaces are ALSO SPECIAL to us.
Dude, you don't have to be American to enjoy this story. You get the whole story, in true Appalachian style and set to a haunting strong tune full of country music. Every American knows the history and romance of moonshine. Its still being made and still just as unique! First time I tried it, my lips burnt, tongue tingled and I felt it down to my toes.
I used to turn up at tamworth, early Sunday morning, to see the bluegrass championship's, back in the day..(best thing was cooling one's heels at paradise after?)😅
I tried some real Tennessee moonshine my dad brought home one day.
I burnt like fire and tasted like petrol! It was horrible!
That was my last taste of moonshine. None for me, thanks 🥵🤮
@@beatlesrgear Unfortunately that was actual 'bootlegger moonshine', not the artisinal refined recipes by people who actually take the care and time to perform proper fractional distillation, get out all the nasty stuff, and keep only the good tasting liquor, proof it to 50%abv so it doesn't rot your stomach lining, and you can have a taste of heaven better than anything you can buy at a liquor store when done right.
@@beatlesrgear,Aww that, s really to bad. I'm so sorry to hear that. It happens to a lot of ppl actually. Who ever made that should be ashamed to ever let anyone get that swill. As a descendant of a shiner from Copperhead Rd. I can assure you that if you ever get to taste any made there, you will never want anything else. At 140 to 190 proof depending on what part of the run ya get, it's all so 😅 smooth you don't even feel it go down but then it hits nice and warm on its way back up. Flavor depending on what it's made from, I prefer corn because It gives a nice corn flavor and it's delicious if made right. But you never realize you are drinking some licker that's twice the proof of regular licker untill you get a couple in ya. Suddenly out nowhere you are quite buzzed. That's real moonshine.
@@albertmueller6616 Gotta be sour mash corn. Leave the "sugar liquor" (aka white rum) to the tourists.
Same as my daddy and my daddy before😊
March 2024- Revisiting a time-tested Earle classic after a good friend and wife went to see him last night at the Grand Ole Opry. I shared that I too saw him in his youth right after he released the Copperhead Road album (late 1980s). If you like this album, check out his previous album, EXIT O. Steve Earle is a genuine American treasure.
th-cam.com/video/WHE1dM4hYCw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bo-lUcoelo39yTGz if you haven’t seen Heartworn Highways you should definitely check this clip out of a young steve earle
And he's coming to my hometown to perform in June. Really looking forward to the show.
A real treaure
Ok
Счастливый человек!
Yes. An absolute classic. A masterpiece. Written and performed.. This song will never get old.
💫
Back when Charlie never put sugar in anyone's gas tank.
Dad used to love this, heard it so many times as a teenager. Now listening 25 years later it sounds even better. Miss ya Dad.
Den E rip bro
Den E i used to listen to this with my father on road trips when I spent my summers with him. I listen to this song whenever I miss him. It’s magic. Still makes me close to him. Few people will ever have that connection.
Den E amen me too bro
again thanks keep sending your favorite song
Den E here's to Dads everywhere
listening right now. great song.
Who couldn't love Steve Earl?!❤
He not only is cute but kicks butt as a rocker
I know right!❤ BTW it's "Earle"
Phenomenal song! Ive had the honor of working as a gas/oil pipeline inspector till I retired a few years ago. Seeing the embodiment of "Copperhead Road" in a few locals always made me smile. Country folks making a living the best they can. Thats grass roots America. I wish I could load up and do it again.
Did he pass away
Yes. An absolute classic. A masterpiece. Written and performed.
I agree totally
Can’t go to a bar and not hear this😃😃. More popular than ever
Una grande performance,per una canzone molto bella!😊😍😘🎶🎸🎸🎸🎶💘💓💋💯🌅
If this video was black and white it would hit 100 times harder.
Steve WROTE more great songs than you would believe!!!
I am absolutely sure you are correct.
Love a song that has a story with a haunting melody. This band rocks!
Check out "The Guitar" by Guy Clark
Same same
Yes ofcourse 👍🏻
My five times great grandfather, born in Scotland, moved to America in early 1770s. Lived in Philadelphia til after the War of Independence. He was in the Militiamen who fought the British. After America was free, he moved to Ross's Landing, now known as Chattanooga, TN. He died in 1831 and is buried in Blount County, TN. Of him it was said, even in his published obit, that he made the finest whiskey known to man. There were no laws at that time prohibiting folks from making their own. I imagine that this would have been some of the early beginnings of whiskey making in Tennessee. So the Moonshine heritage in Tennessee dates WAY back
History makes us
Interesting
That's awesome that your family knows their history that good. 🤙
@jacobrobinson175 There has been a tremendous amount of research done by a huge number of people. I have a copy of a photo of my 6th great grandfather's grave in Scotland. Emailed to me by his descendants (my relatives) who still live there.
... and thats just damn cool, GO GREAT GRAMPA THE 5th!..this one reason why I love the U.S.A.!! THANK YOU!!
This song is still as good as the day they released it. 🤟🤘👊✌️
Dislike country music but growing up in Wisconsin Illinois heard this song so many times partying and can sing every single word. Great respect
This got a lot of airplay on our Classic Album Rock station.
This is another song that has stood the test of time, and will continue to do so!! Love Steve Earle.
Hello

This what made money for immigrant Americans for years and still to this day! Survival! I miss these stories.
Copperhead Road is a real road here in Johnson County, TN. People keep stealing the road signs though.
Any young teens here? I was raised on this music.❤
Springsteen could NEVER touch this!! Best country rock tune ever!!
Springsteen ain't the Earle, but I love both of them!
This is a classic that will never die.
Never heard it in my life.
Excellent song.

SPECIAL ED EDUCATION
One of the greatest songs ever written. I'm lucky enough to have seen him play it live.
I’d like to see him live …. Unfortunately he doesn’t come around where I’m from too often that i know of…. Been a fan of his since the early 80s
lucky bastard
Now that definitely makes me jealous. I love the 2 step beat. I'd be 2 steppin away! Woo!
Me too, 3 x
That would have been awesome
Still Loving it..Nothing Better than riding Dirt Roads and Playing Loud Steve Earle..
This song is a legend. It will never die.
I’m 15 this was my dad’s favourite song he passed away recently and hearing this song again brings back so many memories miss you dad
♥️
My Dad died a few years back, he loved this song too, he'd strum this song on his old Gibson guitar, and he sang this song and many others with all his heart. Cherish the memory of your dad bro, we are only here for a short time.
Sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss Buddy. You hang in there.
I'm so sorry for your loss. This song reminds me of all the stories I heard about my great grandfather, who I never met. These songs are timeless and unforgettable, hold on to them! ❤❤❤
Ain't no other song that connects three generations the way that this song does
Pure genius 👏
That's the power of music 🎶 for you ,a timeless masterpiece that will go on for an eternity. 👍😎👍❤️🇬🇧 Sept twenty two
It's a family tradition....
@@doughesson Hank why do you drink? Why do you roll smoke? Why must you live out the songs that you wrote?
True.
I've never heard this song in my life.
Yep still listening to it after 30 years
First time I’ve heard it. It’s really good. I’m waiting for a bluegrass band to record it!
Yes I’m 👂 listening too this day & Every day I am ❤
One of the best songs ever written imo. Always loved this song.
I never understood why my mom loved this song so much.
I'm an adult now (ugh) and totally get it. Fuck yes
This is one of the most AMERICAN songs ever.... And I LOVE it! Just sayin....
Murican!
and east coast canadian. I grew up with this playing in the house and can still hear it when i go back.
@@shanna6169 didn't think Canadian listen to country music
And yet somehow it has 60K downvotes. I don't understand why. I think if you want to dislike a video you must list a reason why.
false, listen to true american by hulk hogan
Mr. Steve Earle is an American Treasure. He speakes truth to power until the skies fall and the seas boil.
I'm listening in the UK hell yeah ❤❤
Hell Yeah !!
From Aotearoa .
Steve Earle ..
Done the hard yards .
A legend.
as a vietnam combat soldier and from the country, i feel at home when i listen to it!! What a story, what a voice and what a kick ass band! Music as it should be 😎👍🙏
Welcome home.
.
How does it feel to know that you were just a vile puppet of the government? They only fought for the interests of the powerful in turn.
Thank you for your service.
My dad was from rural Tennessee and got drafted at age 19. Ended up in the 1st Cav in the middle of the jungle. They did like to draft poor guys from the country.
@@JohnSmith-ys4nl I was infantry with the Cav!! 1969-70
I remember headed off camping with my step-dad, he had a whole bunch of burnt CDs; and when I picked the one that said "Sandstorm" on it, the 5th track was Copperhead Road. I'll never forget driving through the mountains listening to this legendary tune. The strums to me, are like a melody of freedom. Idk why. But it is.
This song just brings out the drunk outlaw
That's a savage ass memory. Hell yeah. Your step dad has good taste
Good song
That feeling in our chest when this song plays? That's your Scots-Irish ancestors calling us
Hell yeah I feel the same way
This song does and will always kick ass!!
2024 still going strong ☘️👊☘️👊☘️👊
Probably the best country rock song ever...
Exactly this was my thought a minute ago.
Greg Shea this ain't country
+Trever G why not?
Greg Shea Yea this is way more country than what they call country today
In Australia we have a genuine old school and very popular country singer...Lee Kernaghan...He does a very good cover..It doesn't quite have the angst of the original..
It got a fair bit of airplay here back in the day.
Listening in 2024 🎉 holler if you hear me!!!
*_Holla--_*
Holla!@@moragmacgregor6792
Love it!
Yeeehaaaa!
Holler! And shout out to Lloyd my BFF who is resting in peace!
Love me some Steve Earle, he's great live
Moonshine is still real in alot of places . especially in Kentucky
This is just one of those songs that come around very rarely and can never be forgotten
"Come around very rarely" bro! This is heart
😉
Best thing Steve Earl ever did.
Best thing the Pogues (who are his backing band on this) ever did too.
Both have done other good stuff for sure. But.........
Sometimes you do something so good you can't better it. Hell of a thing.
Stevies my hero i freaking love this guy
Such a terrific song.
This was my grandpa’s favorite song no matter what he was doing if it came on the radio he had it up as loud as it would go. They played it at his funeral back in September of 21 and I play this song everyday. The only video I have with his voice in it is him dancing and singing to this song
Great memories! Thanks for sharing! Makes me smile.
Sorry for your loss. It’s good you keep your Grandfather’s memory alive.
I would love to hear it. miss my grandpa. much love. 👍
God bless both of You!,.✨
That's a beautiful memory.
My Dad had a
V8 318 Dodge Phoenix.
What a car
Rip...Brent Booher. 3yrs today missus my friend. Here's your song
Still one of the greatest country rock songs ever
I need more country rock. Recommendations?
@@glaxko2 Glad you asked! I'm 64, have a lot but I'll start with Old97's who we are going to see soon. Try songs, Murder(or a heart attack), Nineteen, Time bomb for starters. Also Poco, You better think twice and Grand Junction and Ozark Mountain Daredevils, If you want to get to Heaven. Enjoy and give me your opinion!
@@peteshallcross787 hey Pete thanks for the suggestions. A good friend of mines last name from college was Shallcross. He was from PA.
Yeah, it’s straight Outlaw Rock! I love to watch all the reactions from this amazing tune. People from every walks of life love it. Moonshine is just another part of our history, and the real stuff would only take a small bit and knock you down. I use to always keep some in my fridge with some fruit in it so it wouldn’t burn so bad going down. The real stuff will catch on fire, that’s how you know it’s real. Great tune. Will love it forever!
@@glaxko2 KOE WETZEL
This song will never get old
Not all listening to this are Americans, or are unfamiliar with home brew! Hello from CANADA
What an epic story all condensed into 4.29 minutes
my grandfather and I used to blast this everywhere we went, he passed away july 14, 2019 and i’m listening to it everyday in memory of him💔
My condolences to you and your family.
I'm so sorry for your loss! It sounds like you two were super close ❤ I'm sure whenever you're driving somewhere listening to this, he's right there riding with you ❤❤❤
My deepest condolences to you and you family may he rest forever in peace
I just listened to it in memory of him also
So sorry...How cool was Gramps tho!
Steve Earl singing this song makes me feel alive. Paints a picture better than paint. Thanks for putting this on
Love country music when it’s real and Steve Earl is REAL !!
Earle.... it's got a "E" at the end of his name
86 still live 😂😂😂😂🌏🌎🌍
I had a Pap like the man in the video. He taught me to weld at about 5 and to ride horses at about 1. He was from Salt Lick Kentucky. He fought for this country and lived for his family. He left this earthly plane this year. I hope he made it back down to Copperhead Road. RIP RBP.
My Pop left this year too. When he was young he spent some time in SE Asia, Airborne, Army Special Forces. I wouldn't be surprised if they made small talk while they were waiting in line at The Gate. Merry Christmas-
Rip your dad.
I lost mine too bro.
I'm in Oz.
My dad was same also.
We are all now hard core.
Peace bro.

thanks for that. he was an amazing story teller, so i am sure he had em laughing.
Salt lick ? Not to far from Lexington
Copperhead road is an absolute timeless classic. It ranks right up there with any song that was ever recorded. Freaking awesome! Steve Earle, God bless!
Agree!!!
Les - and freaking honest!
Everytime I hear it makes me want to have drink of Moonshine.
AWESOME!!!!!
True. Cmon to the contry, the real country. If ya know ya are there.
I learned a thing or two from Charlie don't you know , you better stay. Away from copperhead road!
Always been a huge fan of Steve Earle. I saw him live in Birmingham UK about 15 years ago, he played unsupported for about 2-3 hours. One of the finest musicians I've ever had the privilege of seeing.
Wow that is cool
This song should be added to America history
Alongside Brandon's aviators
It sure is my family's history. Family comes from Caryville/Knoxville/clinchmore and that's how we made our living for a loooooong time.
I’m Canadian and this song is American history to me lmao
@@thomasroquemore9011 some will never know. They'll never know the feeling of a big a** tomato worm down their back either.🤣
@@stevenrobbins7402 holding down maggie valley over here.
I once lived at a place in N.C. exactly like this, and I called it Copperhead Road because of this song.
Scotland here!
Once in awhile there comes a song that will stand alone forever! This will be one of those!
This is one of my go to songs
I love this song. I feel it in my bones. I was in Basic training, two days after my 18th birthday in 1985.. I volunteered because I knew I wasn’t going to graduate and had no idea what to do with my life. I became a Cobra Crew Chief and it changed my life.
Great song. Great music and story. Also my favorite line dance number to Thunderfoot.
@@N21X great story! I hope you're doing well 🙂
Damn straight son.
Always one of my favorites. I'm 56, old man but I have 9 and 5 year old daughters. They've got such a range of taste in music and old fashioned values. I hope there are more like them keeping this alive.
59 HERE AND MUSIC AND STRINGED INSTRUMENTS ARE MY PASSION.MY KIDS 40,38,32 WOULD NEVER HEAR THIS UNLESS I CRANK IT FOR THEM.RUSH IS ACTUALLY MY FAVORITE BAND EVER BUT I LOVE ALL GENRES EXCEPT RAP AND HIPHOP,THEY GOT NOTHING ON STEVE EARLE
i just turned 60 my son's 17 he grew up with my vinyl collection and boy can he swing a guitar..so proud 😭
18 here. Still have a love for cassettes from days gone and dentside Fords. When I get one I’ll have to name it Copperhead… can swing a hammer, weld a bead, skin a coon and love to read. I’ll keep them old times alive mister. Don’t you worry.
I am 73 and have been listening to this for over many years and it just gets better with time.
51 here and My 19& 27 year old daughter's know the song and it's meaning in the history of East Tennessee
This was my first favourite song. I was 4 when I first heard it. My grandfather was in Nam 67-69
I am going to write a script to make this a movie.
Daughters wedding is next week. This is one of the songs she picked for her dance. Rather proud
Stay together Forever!
Awesome to hear:)
Best wishes Charlie
God you raised her right congrats friend!
I hope you folks had a fantastic time.
I just love the opening of this song, that Scot-Irish style with the pipe sounds. The whole song is great but that opening gives me chills everytime I hear it.
Yeah
agreed. i feel the same way in part because the scot-irish moved across the atlantic and settled in hillbilly mountain country (W Virginia, Kentucky) like they came from. nice to be able to appreciate your heritage and not be attacked for it as being not politically correct
@@texasrebelsoul1102 There's never anything wrong with celebrating your heritage. There had never been anything wrong with it.
But what is wrong is insisting that yours is the best, your are or should be more superior than others because of that heritage, and others are subhuman, don't add or have anything of value, and shouldn't celebrate theirs.
@@julieporter7805 well said
Appalachian music
Awesome tune/video 2024
Yea buddy we are ! Great song and true story !
I am an almost 63 year old female and I still get excited when I hear this song play, hey hey hey, I volunteered for the army on my birthday.
Thank you for your service
Yes ma’am, thank you for your service, I served from 93-96, US Army
“ wake up screaming like I’m back over there” shakes me to the core every time.
I appreciate your service.
Not for nothing, your fellow countrymen ,such as myself, are here for you
Know the feeling.
It affects many of us exactly the same way! 💯
Such an underrated line of this iconic song.
I hate the sound of choppers
2024🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦my grandpa brought me up on this 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💯💯💯 ouuuue 2024 let’s goo ❤️ RIP DALE 🇨🇦💯❤️
Yeah Im still listening to it April 20 2024...still drinking it and smoking it too
This song defined clearly how the Vietnam war ended one way of thought and way of life and ushered in another.
Tim Cross the end of moonshine where I grew up was 1973 when the sugar price freeze was lifted. and it go expensive. then it was made for tradition sake and not extra money
We've been growing in the Santa Cruz mountains since i've been alive. Now in Nevada it's recently been voted legal. Those of us that have been up and running for years are way ahead of everyone else on this Nevada gold mine. Recreational sales start in 2018 and we are already set up. American bidness
Tim Cross
you are correct..

Take this beautiful song. Listen to "I was only 19" by Redgum, it is the classic Australian rock version. Those 2 songs define the Vietnam experience, totally different songs but equally powerful if you just listen to the lyrics.
"And can you tell me, Doctor, why I still can't get to sleep? And why the Channel Seven chopper chills me to my feet? And what's this rash that comes and goes? Can you tell me what it means? God help me...I was only 19..."
I am not kidding when I say this is the best song of all time
1 of
I agree it is easily one of the best songs ever written.
Probably.
It's not the best song of all time but it's pretty good. Tom Cochrane life is a highway is the greatest song of all time
First time I heard this with with my pops when I was about 12 I'm 43, it puts me back with him
RIP Dad. love ya
I'm listening on APRIL 14th on a Sunday night 2024
One of my brother's favorite tunes. Played it at his funeral for him/us. RIP Freddy boy!

I'm so sorry for your loss ♥♥
I am a lover of many kinds of music from classical to metal to trance, but this stuff hits differently. This is pure gold!
great tune having bud
@@bobprescott I never smoked it, but I bet it would be :D
@@an0ana i don't understand
I thought you meant pot, not the beer. Sorry for the confusion ♥
I went to raves in the 90's my buddy who promoted several,I backed a few with cash (insurance was needed along many things,hall rental,warehouse rentals)..I love Country Western,Rock of all era and you got it Trance(love a lot of remixes)...I even like Jazz and the Blues,rarely listen to those but still like them,usually Christmas time I get the feel for them..
Oddly as a car guy I just stick with classic Chrysler products(Mopar) 60's Dodge Charger's,70's Cuda's,Super Bee's etc...I love all types of music but one type of car.I love cruising in them with my music blasting,I have a modern hidden system in a few of them..Nothing better than driving and listening to the radio and hearing the big block Dodge V8 rumble!
We have music somewhat in common and I bet I am way older than you lol..early 50's but look young & fit..Happily married and 4 kids...
Have a Great Summer&Life! Remember when you feel down blast some uplifting music!! It helps!
literally drinking moonshine right now as I listen to this..LOL..no joke......a peach shine...sooo good..sooooo smooth....no bite..no heat.
Sweet!! Would love a bit!! How 'bout some Cap'n Applejack your way? That's some good stuff too!!
Literally smokin a blunt while listening to this awesome song! 💛from Alaska~
How smooth? Like really smooth? Or really really smooth?
I used to get peach moonshine from an old boy that lived by me in central Florida. Had a peach floating in the mason jar. He got it from Georgia.
@@DonHorvathIII Muskogee Mash, smoothest moonshine Ive eve tasted!
Love this song.....it NEVER gets old....I was shocked to see it came out in 1988! Wow...what a classic...thank you Steve Earle!
He was so sexy.
😮😮😮, where the fuck was I in 88 🤣🤣
1988? I thought it came out before that.
@@mmasque2052 Yes, that’s when the album was released. But I used to catch him at the clubs, quite often, in the early 80s, & I’m positive I had heard it by ‘83.
I was a 15yn yrold scaffollder best yr of my life then life realy begun oh 2 go back and change some things
