Classic southern rock, this song was so huge when it came out. A song that tells a good story is the best of all.
At the time it was recorded it was Southern Rock, later it would be considered Outlaw Country as Charlie Daniels is one of the genre founding members. I don't know why we feel the need to define music so narrowly but we do.
I don't know about every member of the band but Charlie Daniels himself became an extremely religious man and publicly described himself as a Christian. In fact, he got where he was not comfortable with the words of the song and he changed what Johnny said to the Devil to: "I done told you once, you son of a GUN, I'm the best there's ever been." And yes he was also extremely patriotic. He was very vocal about his religion and he was very vocal about how much he loved his country.
"Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough, Granny does your dog bite, no child no" were old old lines that were said by men who were calling out cadences for square dancing. I don't think the sentences were intended to mean a whole lot; it's just that the cadence was right for dancing to, so the caller used them. The Charlie Daniels band borrowed them from those old-time square dance calls.
Thanks for the insight to those lines, I always wondered!
Charlie became the kind of person he used to sing about in his song Uneasy Rider. I've always been uneasy around people who flip their beliefs later in life
The version of the song recorded for radio always said "son of a gun". It's not like he thought that up later in life.
The crowd that went to his concerts later in life were mostly older fans who were at the concerts with their kids and grandkids and "son of a bitch" was not really appropriate for that crowd.
imo the Devil won that dual. Just loved the funk and wicked.
One night the Devil whispered to me, "You are not strong enough to withstand my storm".
I whispered back, "At least I didn't lose my golden fiddle to a hillbilly in Georgia".
A MUST HEAR Classic,, The Charlie Daniels Band "Long Haired Country Boy"..R.I.P. Charlie 🙏❤️
Charlie Daniels was considered a "crossover" band who were able to accomplish that rare feat of being on the Country music charts as well as the Pop/Rock charts at the same time. Its actually the beginning (along with others of course)of the Country Rock genre.
Charlie rapping before rap was a big thing. It's a really fun song hard not to like it no matter what kind of music you like.
i guess youve never been to a hootenanny
Some of us had to suffer Square Dancing in Elementary school...
Jus'sayin some scars...
I saw Charlie Daniels and Travis Tritt in concert (for my first time) in Oklahoma in December of 2019. Charlie was so dope and could still shred on his fiddle. He expressed his love for the USA, its citizens, and especially its men and women in uniform protecting our freedom and there was not one dry eye in the theater. He also saw a young boy in the front row who was dancing to the music and Charlie walked right over to him in the middle of a song and gave his bow to the boy. Pretty awesome souvenir and memory for that youngster. Now that he has passed I’m deeply saddened but also thankful that I decided to buy that ticket and drive from Texas to Oklahoma to see him perform. As I sat there just a few rows back I was amazed at how spry he was for being in his 80s. It just goes to show you that life is precious, health is paramount, and every day is a gift. RIP Charlie!
I had the great privilege to work with him in Alabama after the 2018 JSU Tornado and again in Mt Juiliet TN after the 2020 Tornado. He was more than a great entertainer, he was a great person. I was absolutely beyond shocked when he greated me by name in 2020 two years after we had met. He did care a great deal about this country, his community and above all it's people. When he attended an event or fundraiser he would insist on being introduced to the people behind the scenes and thanking them personally for "making things happen".
the legend of wooley swamp is another good song from charlie daniels.
Charlie Daniels was so musically gifted it almost should have been illegal. Technically profitient on a multitude of instruments other than just a fiddle. Charlie was one of those rare musicians that you could have handed a washboard to and he could've plucked you out a tune on it. Saw him live in 1983 with the Marshall Tucker Band and both bands were fantastic!
This song came out in 1979 and is still played on both classic country and classic rock radio stations, huge crossover. Great reaction. Charlie Daniels is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and you can call this either country or Southern Rock.
Another great reaction!! I never much cared for country music either, but this is difficult to "not like". Charlie passed away in 2020, but he definitely epitomized everything great about our once proud nation - patriotic, ethical, religious, kind. Alas, most of those qualities are rapidly declining. 😢😢😡
Speaking as one of Charlie's originals fans who first started listening to him in 1972 with his hit uneasy Rider I quit listening to him in the 80s because of his political stance, which was the opposite of what he started out with.
@bobcorbin3294 so you were really ahead of your time with cancel culture BS, what an accomplishment!😊
Charlie Daniels himself is one that was difficult to not like they say he was just a genuinely nice person! RIP Dear Charlie
@@bobcorbin3294 I am sorry you gave up a part of your life that you enjoyed because of political views. Everyone has a right to their own effed up values. You don't have to agree, but you do have to let them have that right.
@@courtney5796 I didn't give up part of my life I still listen to his old music which was much more Rock oriented. The main reason I quit listening to him was because he went country. Speaking as a Nashvillian who has lived here all my life I dislike most country music as only a Nashville native can 😁😁 as a human being Charlie was one great person knowing that living here now in Mount Juliet where he was based. it's just he said some pretty nasty things to say about liberals and Democrats in the early 2010's
Charlie was a really good person. Also the phrase chicken in the bread pan picking out dough is a square dance pattern that a caller would call out.
The only difference between a violin and a fiddle is that the violin is strung with strings, and the fiddle is strung with strangs. Makes all the difference.
About 3 hours after this show, they were headed from Saratoga Springs NY to Montgomery Alabama. Their bus broke down and my dad was a coach bus driver at that time, and got a call in the middle of the night to drive the Charlie Daniels Band down south. The stories he told make Willie Nelson's bus seem tame.
This song is a story about going to the crossroads and selling your soul for fame and fortune. A few giants in the musical history of the 20th century were said to have sold their soul. Robert Johnson wrote Crossroad blues back in 1937 about selling his soul to have the devil tune his guitar and suddenly he (Robert) was the best at the time.
Charlie Daniel’s became a born again Christian later in life and he was a proud American and did so many charity events that a lot of people didn’t know about. RIP CD.
PLEASE trust me on this beautiful classic,, The Marshall Tucker Band "Can't You See"
I agree. I think they will like that song.
In the line where it says Fire on the mountain run boys run, The devil's in the house of the rising sun, chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough, granny does your dog bite no child no, those are all titles of Bluegrass songs. This leads you to believe that Johnny played all those songs to win the contest. Another great one by him is The Legend of Wooley Swamp.
Music is all about frequencies and when those frequencies touch your soul, you get chills. The southern accent might be hard to understand but a true southerner fears nothing.
A song like this transcends musical style, You can feel the honest emotion of the song.
Absolutely
Nothing like kickn the devil's azz at his own game and getting a golden fiddle for it!..Doggone song was everywhere--Top 40 and hard rock stations played the hell outta it, too!
The line, "Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough" has been a song lyric and used in square dancing for a very long time, like maybe forever. It's a Country song staple and used as a lighthearted lyric to bring fun and nostalgia to the music. However, as it's been said, it's true, if you put a chicken into anything, a chicken would peck at whatever it is you have there, even dough 😁😊👍. Charlie Daniels didn't just do Country music though, he was a crossover artist, often fusing Country, Jazz, Rock and Blues into his songs. Update: I forgot to mention, you should do his song, Uneasy Rider next. It's about a "long-haired hippy type" in the middle of the late 60's, when Country & Western music lovers didn't take kindly to that, which makes the song a hoot🦉(i.e. fun/funny) !!!
Andrei and Dominica great reaction and enjoyed your thoughts on this song best wishes and many thanks for sharing new friend looking forward to seeing more of your work stay safe and well 👌
A Country music challenge To see if there is a decade you like better here are a few suggestion of some of my favourites :
1950’s I walk the Line - Johnny Cash
60’s - Crazy - Patsy Cline
70’s - The Gambler - Kenny Rogers
80’s - Mountain Music - Alabama
90’s My Maria - Brooks and Dunn
2000’s Chicken Fried - Zac Brown Band
2010’s - Body like a Backroads - Sam Hunt
2020’s- Beautiful, Crazy - Luke Combs
He was self taught in the violin 🎻. Great reaction✌️
2 Country singers i love are:
Johnny Cash & Willie Nelson...
It's not a violin, it's a fiddle. As they say down South, a violin has strings, a fiddle has STRANGS. 🙂
Now you need to listen to “The Devil Comes Back to Georgia”. It continues the story of Johnny.
Those strange lyrics were what the callers said to people who were square dancing or country dancing back in the old days.
People who think they don’t like country, usually find out they actually do once they listen to some of it. Country music is a wide and vast genre.
OK. Tell me this about this song. 'He was in a bind 'cause He was way behind'? Behind WHAT? Always wondered that. That's why THIS lyric is high on my 'Weak-ass Lyric' list! LAZY writers like this Piss Me Off!
@@lancewilliams4847 Many businesses set a quota for a certain time frame. If they do not meet the quota , they are usually considered behind. And if you are way behind you might be willing to make a deal. Lyric makes perfect sense.
@@beegee1960 HAHA...... So the Devil runs a business. Sorry, that don't fly. WHO are his customers and what CONSEQUENCES will he suffer if he doesn't meet this assumed 'quota'? Who's the Devil's 'BOSS'?
Yes, I know what CHARLIE was tryin to say/imply. I'd be more convinced if maybe he was HUNGRY and FED on souls.
Anyway, it's IMPLYING too much for the reader. Very weak writing. OVERALL, it's still a cute little story.
Your enthusiastic enjoyment is a pleasure to watch. Thank you.
Not often we get commentary so much wisdom! Thx
hahahaha you two are beautiful!! God bless you!
I am so glad to see that John Wicks dog is alive and well behind you guys...cute beagle
Love watching you guys. Being close to Halloween maybe you can check out his song " The Legend of Wooley Swamp".
❤it!
i think you would really enjoy Charlies song...Legend of Wooly Swamp
Hi again and thanks - You ask about if these guys are religious and you have a sense of them being honorable and such. I think you are right to feel these guys abide by a basic honorable code a large majority of the USA did at this time. Strictly speaking, a boastful kid outperforming and beating the devil is not something the "church" would get behind, but you already see the different metaphor uses and how this entertains different thoughts.
❤ you guys. ❤ this song.😁
That little chorus is an old time call-out that they used to use for square dancing/barn dances.
Glad you did this one. My favorite by Charlie is "Still in Saigon," which is the most realistic song about the Vietnam War that I know. "My younger brother calls me a killer, and my daddy calls me a vet." I enjoyed your reactions. You just got a new subscriber.
Truly enjoyed your reaction. I hope you continue checkin out Charlie Daniels.
Johnny said, not today Devil 👿🤘🤘
Another great band, glad you've reacted to them. I've seen them twice, once in college in around 1976, and after college at this same venue (SPAC - Saratoga Performing Arts Center in NY)....I might even have been at this one. Charlie was a true American patriot, and loved his country. RIP, Charlie.
I love your reactions and comments ❤
Great reaction to Charlie, another band you have to check out are the Mavericks with " Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down", (live from Austin TX)
Another good spooky scary story telling song is The legend of wooly swamp by him
Great reaction to a great song.
The part of the lyrics you found confusing:
"Fire on the Mountain
Run, Boys, Run
Devil's in the House of the Rising Sun
Chicken in the bread pan, pecking out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? No, chile, no."
Are all titles to or lyrics of traditional folk songs.
The devil played modern music, and Johnny beat him with traditional folk music.
Hi Guy's that was great & fast paced , here's another one that's fast paced Leroy Van Dyke (The Auctioneer) American very fast, ATB Wayne UK..........
the difference between a violin ad a fiddle is the strings. Violins have traditional gut strings and fiddles have steel strings.
THE DEW DROP INN IS MY FAV LOL!!!!
Wild wood flowers also one of mine
Those odd lyrics are lines from old Bluegrass songs. Songs that I have heard all my life.
Charlie was also an excellent guitarist. Though he had many great songs, my personal favorite is "My Beautiful America - The Charlie Daniels Band (Official Video)" where he recites "My Beautiful America" to images and an acoustic guitar serenade. You can feel the great love he had for America. Love your reactions. Don't be afraid of country it is a great story telling music. It's nationalistic, but I feel everyone should love their country, it's beauty, culture and all those countries eventually find a home in American culture. The world has made America.
This is my first time on your channel. I enjoyed it. You need to listen and see Roy Clark in Dueling Banjos. Very funny and amazing talent playing the banjo. He is also amazing on the guitar and violin
Yes, Charlie Daniels and prior generations were guided by the Golden Rule. Sorry to say that rules are no longer applied and understood why they exist in the first place. Peace ✌🏽
Great reaction!
A masterpiece of Southern rock. But I have heard the vocals described as Southern rap before.
I think Charlie was a spiritual man that was raised in the Church, so he knew what was bad in his heart but went his own way most of his life. But in his later years became religious, and then lived by its tenants.
"Fire on the Mountain" run boys, run
The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun
Chicken in a bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? No, child, no
This is more Bluegrass than country. Bluegrass music originated in the Appalachian mountains. Irish& Scottish settlers brought their music traditions to Appalachia. Features lots of fiddle ( violin ) & guitar , bass
Trudy is another really good song by them thatll get you rockin
You guys are a cute couple. Love y’all
You guys are awesome ! Fire 🔥
Charlie Daniel's, Hank Williams jr,the Allman Brothers, credence Clearwater revival, the Bellamy Brothers ,Lynyrd Skynyrd are all southern rock bands or "outlaw country ".
Long Haired Country Boy
🎻🎻🔥🎻🎻
Clicked so fast
Congrats.. you win a cookie! lol
Obviously you can tell this is an older video, but I saw him play this song at the age of 81, just 2 years before he passed on and it was just as good as it was in this video
I saw Charlie Daniel's in 1979
It’s instrumental only, but if you want to see him showing off then check out “orange blossom special”
❤
So glad you reacted to this song. Another song I grew up loving.I love to see you enjoy a song that so many of us know. Nice reaction. Have a great day and God Bless!🐢🇺🇸
Fire on the mountain run boys run....The Devils in the house of the rising sun...those lines etc are ways beginning fiddle players learn the rudiments. They are fairly ancient folk mountain sayings. In other words instead of counting, a fiddle player uses these phrases to keep the rhythm.
Ren - Uninvited of Sick Boi album you guys will love that one. It's alot of fun.
Nightwish Symphony of Destruction Live by Marko Hietala in Romania.
Goodnight Saratoga!!
Charlie was a good man and a true American.
People that don't like country music don't spend enough time listening to it. Not the new tractor rap crap. Real country music 😊
saw em in the 70s, one of the tightest bands i've seen, they did not miss a note all night
CHRISTIANS; We love GOD, Family, and country. And we will fight to the end to defend these values!
Charlie was a committed Christian! 🙏✝️❤️
✌✌
Charlie was a very religious man. He just loved music and wanted people to shout at the devil saying Gods got my back.
Please check out Still in Saigon, next please. Such a talented crew.
❤❤❤❤! Killer reaction!
I loved your reaction! Great country band.
This isn't considered "old country music" it's "Southern Rock" which is a dying breed now... some of today's country music might come close BUT you can't go wrong with Charlie Daniel's band.. Lynard skynard.. Creedance Clearwater Revival.. Janis Joplin.. just to name a couple, anything from the 70's is GOLD
Great song and group, wonderful reaction. I hope ya'll can get to the all lady band from Japan - Band-Maid for a reaction. Given how much you seem to like 80''s and 90's music, I think you might find their fusion of hard/punk/metal with both English & Japanese lyrics very interesting.
You guys need to listen to the song werewolves of London sung by Warren Zevon. I think you’ll enjoy it!
If ya like simple man check out Long hair country boy by Charlie Daniels band. Lol it goes like this God Guns and Family . Blessings
I think the piano player is actually the bass guitarist, but had to play his part on the piano so he could do it one handed. If you listen to the studio track, that part is the bass guitar.
I have truly enjoyed another reaction from y'all (in honor of the Charlie Daniels Band). Please check out Anastacia's "I'm Outta Love " from the Live at Last concert.
Some of the lyrics are lyrics from other songs. Chicken in the bread pan,,,
You should listen to the original version of simple man by lynyrd skynyrd. They also did free bird. Both songs are amazing 😊
Watch to kill the child by roger Watter’s sooooooo good!
He was rapping before rap.
the parts that confused you are traditional call outs from hoedowns or hootin-annies. for square dancing. "hoedown" as in put your hoes down and stop working it is time to dance instead. Country folks and farmers typically worked from before dawn to after it got dark except after the harvest and during winter so when it was time to take some recreation time they went at it hard too.
"Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough. Granny does your dog bite? No child, no." Not lyrics you hear often, eh?
Check out the song Trudy its good live also
Hi, I wanted to ask you if you can react to any of the songs by the Mexican band Porter, I recommend the song Huitzil, I love your videos guys.
Don’t have to block him! 🤨
