As a South Floridian and a lover of our history and unique ecology, there are few songs that touch my heart like this one. Absolute classic.
I was born in Ft. Lauderdale, but really grew up in Jupiter Farms.
Ditto!!Saw him in concert on the Seminole reservation it was amazing!
Native Floridian, Florida Keys Kid here and this song touches me like no other.
I live in North Florida now. But I did take a trip to the swamp just last February. It's a really beautiful place. So sad about them turning all the snakes loose down there and them overtaking the small animal population. I can't even imagine what it looked like before people in Industry messed it up. But what they have saved is really something to see
My family too !!
The ghost of the cry of OSCEOLA, was the cry of the greatest Chief of the Seminole Indian Tribe.
John Anderson is one of the reasons I love country music. As a teenager I heard his song "Swinging" (a huge hit with hilarious lyrics) and have been hooked ever since. You should also hear "Straight Tequila Night".
Swingin' and Money In The Bank are great tunes.
Straight Tequila Night is hands down a great song too. In fact, Neon Moon by Brooks and Dunn is another good song along the same ilk. You liked one of their songs in the Son In Law movie the other night!
Definitely, forgot about that one
O Charlotte, she's as pretty as the angels when they sing, I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch, in a swing, just a swanging. I love that song.
Swingin' was one of the few songs that would get an Alpha Gamma Rho (Ag Fraternity) up and dancing. It's such a great song. Also love Straight Tequila Night and Seminole Wind. Such a unique voice!
Anderson is an extraordinary lyricist, guitar player and singer. His songs, "Swingin'" and "Straight Tequila Night" are worth a listen as well.
Oh, no doubt about it... What about "The Black Sheep of the Family"? Another great one.
"The Long Black Veil"
Don’t forget Wild and Blue
The Seminole Tribe of Florida, a federally recognized American Indian tribe, is the only tribe in America that never signed a peace treaty. Respect!
A favorite of mine. Cherokee here! The relation of indigenous people to the land is incredibly spiritual and I love that his lyrics pull that string and honor the natural world. Thanks for listening to this one!
So right
Cherokee? You look like if Whole Foods was a person
My grandmother was a Choctaw. I have a great love for nature.
My great-grandmother was Florida Seminole. This song brings tears.
❤
My great great grandmother was. And on the other side of my family my 5x great grand father was Chief Menawa. My feelings for my Native ancestors are deep.
This song is a gem. He's referring to Osceola. A Seminole/Scottish mixed man who became a rebel warrior leader against the United States. They had firearms and they were one of the more difficult tribes along with the Comanche for the US to fight. They would hide their encampments in the swamps and live off the animals the swamp provided. Well known for hunting and eating gators. I wish a director would make a historical epic movie about Osceola and the Seminoles refusal to give up and had this song in it during the climax. They were the only tribe who never officially surrendered to the United States expansion. Powerful tribute and testament to that.
The seminole are part of the Muskogee, along with the Creek. Most of the Creek were forcefully relocated. But it's customary for Creeks and Seminoles to greet one another as "brother/sister" in a spiritual sense, akin to how the terms are used in churches.
That fiddle is mournful and it makes me cry every. single. time. Mourning for the Glades, mourning for the land and the Seminole tribe, mourning for all the loss that still is happening even today.
Well said 😢
@@RowdyRuth the fact that my grandkids won't be able to hunt, play, and enjoy the glades as I did as a child makes me cry. And it's also one of the reasons I'm a huge activist for the health and welfare of the Glades.
Being a Keys kid for the last 15 years did nothing but validate how I feel now.
@@ericsantiago5225 I am part Seminole. I’m in agreement with you. 🥲
They (government) drained Tule Lake back in north California for the westward expansion and was the place of the Modoc War in the lava beds.
John is the real deal,he is a native Floridian and has been around music for years
He's a craftsman, like George Jones ❤
Two generations, same spirit
John has such a unique voice and sense of humor, You ABSOLUTELY have to do his iconic hit "Swinging" !!
Love that song! :D
@@xzonia1 Me too!!! Sure hope they do it!!! 'Black Sheep' too!
@@bonnielambert6315 😁🥰
YES! Swingin' is the best!
Straight tequila night and Money in the bank are good too. I know there are a couple more really good ones too.
Choctaw here. Our ancestors walked the Trail of Tears together.
He had another big hit in the 90s called “Straight Tequila Night”
This is a phenomenal song too, very highly recommend it.
Maybe my fav next to Going Downhill
And I love his version of Long Black Veil almost as much as the original
The Seminole who still live in the Everglades, are the only Indian nation that has never signed a treaty with the US government…..
But love that Hard Rock Casino $$
Ok good info but why did you put 5 dots at the end…………….
We are the unconquered tribe. Andrew Jackson wishes he could have that money back
@@brentshelleryou're enjoying the land though. You can fund your government but not a sovereign nation? Then don't go.
Because they're the remnants of the Muskogee who managed to resist being forcibly moved off the land.
John Anderson is from northern Florida. He's got swamp water in his veins and in his voice. He's a legend who had two distinct eras to his career. In the late 70s/early 80s he was one of the few keeping real honky tonk music alive. He had a whole string of hits you should check out eventually. But the song you MUST do first is "Swinging". His star faded for awhile, but he came back with a vengeance in the 90s and really cemented himself as an all-timer. "Seminole Wind" was from this later part of his career.
Different strokes, I guess. I love this song, but I didn't know he did "Swingin'". Every time that came on the radio, my wife and I would race to switch the station.
Not really northern Florida. Just a little north of Orlando.
He is from Apopka Florida
He's from central Florida in Apopka where I live
John is from central Florida,, Apopka is his home town. a bedroom community of Orlando
Love John Anderson!! This song always gives me chills because of the historical significance.
My mother was adopted as an infant and since the "records were sealed", she never knew who her biological parents were, except to understand that her mother was a Native American Indian, which I guess makes me approximately 1/4 Indian.
Honored to have Native American Indian blood along with you Jay. It's a proud heritage.
So difficult to find ancestors because of that. I have Native American in my family.
His voice is phenomenal!
@@DrBeckyEm Many thanks and Many Blessings to you for sharing that with me via CZcams. So pleased to hear we share the 1Luv Native Blood.
R.T.
Lake Okeechobee once drained south into the Everglades. To control flooding and provide water for Big Ag (sugar cane), the entire lake was diked. Overflow was sent east and west and has been destroying coastal estuaries ever since. The estuaries are home to (among other critters) manatees, flamingos, herons, ibis, anhinga, eagles, hawks, gar, turtles, snook, and blue crabs.
Is that what causes red tide?
So glad you found this wonderful song. He sings it with such feeling. It touches your heart to hear it.
Oceola was an old Seminole tribe chief.
So was micanopy
Oceola was half Muscogee Creek…
I saw him in concert recently, the show was completely acoustic and it was one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to.
Me too! I saw him in Tomball, TX. He is so good. I was surprised to see that there wasn’t a whole band, but he didn’t need it.
The fiddle is crying in this song. It's amazingly beautiful.
"Wish I would been there" or "swinging" totally different songs both 💯 🔥 bangers by John Anderson
Love love love wish I could've been there.john Anderson is the kind.of unique artist I really appreciate
And Straight Tequila Night.
You gotta go with Conway twitty and Loretta Lynn the song is called don't cry don't cry Johnny don't cry Johnny don't cry it's a Conway and loretta together don't cry
Try real hard not to cry because don't cry Joni Ho
I grew up in the areas John is singing about and it's very true, Florida has been ruined by what some call "progress" and it's getting worse by the day. My family and I were lucky enough to be picked out of a line at one of his concerts to go back stage and meet John. John stepped out of his bus and into a tent where the 4 of us were waiting, he introduced himself and told us to help ourselves to the food. Our 4 year old son John looked up at Anderson and proudly exclaimed his name was John too. Anderson got down on one knee the the two John's had quite the conversation. Our 10 year old daughter was starstruck and couldn't even talk, she stood there wide eyed lol. John walked us out to the stage and sat us in the front row, center stage. It was an awesome night.
That’s an awesome story. He has some good songs.
No joke. The biggest insult is West Lake in the Loxahatchee area.
I had back stage pass to his show in Ft Worth...my friend told John that i was drunk...He said "that's how I like my people"
What a beautiful tribute to Indian heritage.
Mississippi Moon !! Another great John Anderson song
Beautiful song! And John Anderson has one of the most distinctive voices in country music. I definitely recommend his "Straight Tequila Night"!
thats a great song too!!!
My dad backed John Anderson in Maine as his lead guitarist. His amp caught fire during the concert and John yelled, HEY HOSS! YOUR AMPS ON FIRE! 😆😆😆
I've been listening to John Anderson since the '70s as a kid. I never thought he'd come up with something I'd like better than Swingin' or Black Sheep of the Family. He blew my mind with this one in '92 with how hauntingly beautiful it is. Do yourself a favor and watch the official music video of this song for your own pleasure, they did a great job in bringing the visuals that fit the song. I'm glad to see him still touring. I'm tempted to make a point of getting back to KY or TN next year to see him live.
Ditto!
My first exposure was just a swinging. I was hooked. I love this style country
Yes - the video for this song - makes you like the song that much more. A few other combos of song + it's matching video that each lets you like the other even more are as follows : David Ball's - Riding with Private Malone , Clay Walkers - The Chain of Love. Oh my Goodness after I saw the videos for the songs listed earlier just blew me away. A few rock songs + videos to check out are - Billy Joel's We Didn't Star The Fire and Robert Palmer's Simply Irresistible. All of these Songs + Video combos really let you experience Music as it should be.
Maybe you should go back and listen to Conway twitty Loretta Lynn they got a song called don't cry Johnny yep you're gonna desperately be crying you listen to that you better do it by yourself if you listen to Conway and loretta
John Anderson one of my favorites. This song for older Floridians is sentimental. Florida when I was young was mainly rural. It's paradise that's being developed at an alarming rate.
You got that right. When I visited last year, some parts are unrecognizable from just several years prior.
God made the mountains , God made the sky - God made the people , God knows why - he fixed up the planet as best as he could , then in came the people and gummed it up good ; they civilize left , they civilize right , til nothing is left and nothing is right
This’s starting to happen to Georgia
That's literally everywhere
Yep,I remember growing up in the orange groves and playing in the swamps,we were poor but it didn't matter because everyone we knew was too,we had an old .22 rifle we used to hunt rabbits subsidize our meat.I remember now and realize it was the best time of my life
John Anderson has so many good songs. He needs to be rediscovered (again). Good job, guys!
John Anderson is a national treasure. He is so authentic in real life and how he sings. I have to keep reminding myself this performance is live!
This song is so hauntingly real. Gives me chills the way John sings it bc he is from there.
Many years before I moved into South Florida, this song touched me. After I moved to South Florida and became aware of the history, it hits more deeply... I know now what a Gar is. I know who Oseola is... This song is heartbreaking when one thinks of the devastation humanity and industrialization has done to the natural wonders of the River of Grass.
My son met John Anderson at his job in a stadium, he said John A is very humble and natural, just a kind and "real" person, doesn't act like a stuckup celebrity in any way. "..heard the ghost of Osceola cry...," Osceola was a former Seminole leader or chief.
First i love yalls reviews, how descriptive you are and how open minded yiu are listening to these songs for the first time. Its so genuine and unbiased.
I love this song so much as an avid outdoorsman in my home state of florida, ive lived in every corner of this state and love rhe states history. There is a special feeling when youre out in natural untouched florida. Unfortunately too much of this state has been ruined by developers. But theres still the places where we can go feel that seminole wind "blow from the okeechobee all the way up to micanopy. "
Osceola is the most famous seminole indian chief that many thinfs in our state is named after. Beautiful sounding song too.
This song is beautiful, and the official video really tells the story
Side note: The album Seminole Wind was released one week before hurricane Andrew formed, then blew across Florida.
😓
This is one of my all time favorite songs. It's a beautiful song.
John Anderson is a national treasure. His voice is sooo unique !!!...hall of fame !!!!!
Hey guys. Osceola was a leader of the seminoles. He was the son of a Native mother (she was a member of the Muscogee tribe) and I believe a Scottish father. John has had some big hits. Deserves a little deeper dive. I know you guys love the instrumentals of classic country and bluegrass, and those great songs and stories. I am going to resend 2 links for you. Two songs from a concert by Patty Loveless and her band (at the time). Guitars, banjo, mandolin, dobro and twin fiddles. The first song is a haunting tune and the 2nd is an upbeat toe tapper. Patty has one of the best voices in the genre. I really think you'll like them. Enjoy. czcams.com/video/1n57WBtvtC4/video.html czcams.com/video/Nj67hHp5GQ0/video.html
Muskogee were from the Choctaw nation. MY great great grandmother was full blooded Choctaw from the Muskogee tribe. She was fluent in the language.
@@poosala8821That’s not true. They’re two different nations. I happen to be half a quarter Chickasaw, a quarter Choctaw, and half Muskogee by blood. A member of the Muskogee nation. They all speak speak languages of the Muskogean language family, but they are not the same and the Chickasaw laid further north in North Alabama and West Tennessee, Choctaw laid further west in Mississippi and Louisiana, while the Muskogee- or Creek- laid further East in Alabama and Georgia. Once they were moved out west to Oklahoma territory, they began intermingling there. I speak both Choctaw and Muskogee, the Chickasaw language is pretty much dead now. They also differ in culture, so you’re information is wrong. I mean no disrespect, but I just wanted you to know.
My dad was in the Lambda Ki Alpha fraternity with Chief Joe Dan Osceola back in the 60’s at Georgetown College in Kentucky. He spoke so highly of him.
Osceola was also never defeated, instead when he was asked to come to come for a talk of peace he was instead taken prisoner,full blooded Chahta here
Born in FL in 75 John was the man when I was a child and still is he had so many songs that yall would love and I love y'alls videos keep it up
Have heard this great song many times and love it! thank you My grandfather was mixed Scottish ,Creek, Cherokee and African.. He taught me many things. He is very much missed ! .
John is the real deal. I have been listening to him almost 50 years. This is a powerful song and him and his band nail it.John hopefully will be inducted soon to the Country Music Hall of fame. He is well overdue. Another great Southern Country singer. New country will never match the real country music from my generation and I am 70. I saw George Strait when he started and doing the county fair circuits.We had some great singers come out in the 70's,80's and early 90's.Thanks for reviewing so much great music and being appreciative of talent.
I'm a native Floridian and I wanted you to know your interpretation of that song was so spot on.
John Anderson is one of the most humble and authentic Country singers out there. From "Black Sheep of the Family," to "Lower on the Hog" to "Swingin" he has at least 11 albums and its hard to pick a favorite. With his unique Joe Cocker style grit in his voice with his heave sothern drawl. My wife and Daughters have seen him at least 20 times starting back in 1983. He has been having health issues the last couple of years, so don't miss out on him like some did with Charlie Danials. Where some people only reacted to him after he died.
I grew up just outside of the everglades. My family spent a lot of time in the glades. It was part of my life. This song. Means a lot to those of us that grew up there.
John Anderson is a country legend. I love this reaction video.
One of my all time favourite songs. This performance especially.
Peace and love to all the nations of Native America 💜
Both of you are helping to make this world a better place by sharing your bright personalities & vulnerabilities. Thank you. 🙂 Another great tune for Native American month is Johnny Cash' rendition of "Ira Hayes", the true story of a Native American hero from WWII.
I'm part Cherokee too ; always loved cheering on the Washington Redskins , the Cleveland Indians , the Chicago Blackhawks and the Florida State Seminoles ... good times ... good times
I'm not from Florida, but this song to me is a mix of bluegrass style, county and a touch of rock with the electric guitar, and it's such an honor to the native American people of Florida!
❤ My favorite John Anderson song!! He’s amazing!! “I Wish I Could Have Been There” is another great song. So glad you covered him. ❤
One of my favorites!! Such a soulful song, it always makes me feel the ancestors. I'm cherokee but also Choctaw and a member of the Choctaw nation.
Same heritage as in Tim McGraw's song, "Indian Outlaw"
Same here 👍🏻
John Anderson has so many great songs. “I Wish I Could Have Been There” is one I think you’ll especially love
Such a classic & beautiful song!!!
What I love about the Seminole nation is that they embodied the true spirit of America before the foundation of the United States. They welcomed anyone into the tribe who was willing and able to contribute to the society.
Don’t sleep on John Anderson. He had a hand full of great songs.
Cherokee & Inuit here 🤗 My fav John Anderson song! That line about Osceola crying makes me get goose bumps every time.
Love John Anderson. He’s one of Florida’s treasures. I got to see him live a couple years back on Blake Shelton’s Heroes and Friends tour. He was awesome. I think my fave of his is Swingin’.
Rob I am 61yrs
And I think you are so great listening to the music I grew up on❣️❣️❣️✌🏼 Love You Man
John has some great songs including Straight Tequila Night and Swingin
That fiddle is CRYING!! Wonderful tune I'd forgotten...thanks, y'all!
This song is so beautiful the band made you feel the emotion with each instrument 💕
This song always moves me to tears. His unique voice and the instruments delivering that message is very moving.
"Swinging" is his most iconic song. Great reaction 👍.
Another good Native American song is "Witchi Tai To" by Everything Is Everything.
John Anderson, age 69, born in Apopka, Fla. in 1954, wrote "Seminole Wind." Many country artists don't write their own material.
The 1980s was one of the great eras to be a country music fan because so many talented young singers who loved traditional country music got started at that time. John Anderson was one of them. Others included George Straight, Ricky Skaggs, Dwight Yoakam, Lyle Lovett and Randy Travis. They all produced wonderful music. For fans of traditional roots-based country music it was the last era where there was an abundance of that kind of country music on the radio.
"Wish I could've been there." Is an great song trucking song. A life that was chosen, had trade offs. But fruitful in the end.
John has that pure country voice. I knew him in high school.....graduated in the same class in '72. Though he's had a few big hits (Check out Swingin) I think John never desired to be a huge country star. He was able to do what he loved, and kept the lifestyle he wanted.
I am Cherokee-Seminole and a Florida native!!! Love this song!! So many memories and thank you ❤
John Anderson is a legend. True southern country.
"Straight Tequila Night" is another good one from him.
Great reaction! He has one of the most unique and distinctive voices ever! He has that same effect on all his songs! Thank you so much for sharing!
I grew up listening to John Anderson this by far my favorite song of his
Good ol John Anderson,he is from Apopka Florida, and he knows we take a lot of pride in our Seminole down here , the only native American tribe that never surrendered to the U.S,and he's talking real issues down here with the damage done to our wetlands
Heard John Anderson perform “Seminole Wind” in an open air concert and it was incredible and moving…almost like you could feel and see the souls of our native ancestors!
I have every album John has done. He's real country. Swingin, Country Til I Die, Mississippi Moon, I WishI Could Have been there, and Countrified. John is from Florida and no one else has a voice like his.
When played like that, the fiddle emotes feelings of melancholy and loss. It was played perfectly for this song!
While I'm more familiar with the studio version of this but the live version is very nice. John Anderson was a pretty big name in 90's country when I was in high school in California. Another song by him are "Straight Tequila Night" which is what I know him slightly more for.
His old songs it's just my childhood.
It's freaking awesome.
I always think of "The Trail of Tears" with this song, one of the greatest of American tragedies.
Try “I wish I could have been there” by John Anderson too…such a FANTASTIC Song! It will touch your soul.
That song always gives me goosebumps. Hauntingly beautiful!
By the way, his song "Swingin'" is wonderful!!! ♥
CLASSIC COUNTRY VOICE!!!!!!!!!!
John Anderson is an underrated country star ⭐️! He has a ton of great songs , From Straight Tequila Night , to Swingin , To Black Sheep Of The Family, to many more give him a listen !
100% agree!
Excellent reaction. Please do more of John Anderson. He has many great songs.
I love my beautiful state of Florida. This song makes me teary eyed every time I hear it. ❤❤
John Anderson is from Central Florida, like myself. One of my favorite artists!
I LOVE this hauntingly, beautiful song!! John Anderson's finest!!!
The ending of this song the fiddle is so haunting but beautiful at the same time
What an emotional rush! I heard this song many times over the years but never thought about what I was hearing. Until your reaction. Thank you.
I love this song!! It always makes me cry because It makes me think about my Grandma & Granddaddy!! I loved them so much!!❤❤
John Anderson has such a unique voice. He has a great catalog. He did a duet with The Bellamy Brothers. It was called "No Country For Old Men". It is worth a listen.
This song NEVER ceases to make me cry like a baby, for all the Genocide suffered by our precious Indigenous tribes! 🥺😭
I first heard this song on the radio at 12 years old and i did something that i had done maybe once in a year up to that point, i cried. My first experience with y'alls channel was 25 or 6 to 4, a song that made fall in love with chicago in my early teenage years. Getting the opportunity to partake in the experience of hearing these things for the first time has brought me infinite joy and has brought back countless memories that I'd completely forgotten to that point. I can't thank y'all enough for that.
That's 😎.
John Anderson has a vast library of songs... but this is BY FAR my favorite... I have no indigenous blood in my line, but it stirs my soul just the same....
As a Texan, an American, I have long loved the sentiment of Seminole Wind. The heart of our nation was built on the same freedoms and battles brought to light in this song. Thank you for letting it play with minimal interruptions. A few songs deserve that respect.
Great song!! The next John Anderson to hear is “Straight Tequila Night”
Keep doing what your doing! ❤
JOHN ANDERSON is not a new artist, he is actually a very famous country music legend , thank you 😊😊😊 ❤❤❤
