    Don't typically send these comments! But some of y'all have pointed out that I technically condoned violence. You know what, good call out. But we're leaving this up to show what my natural reaction was. But to everyone reaching out on that, thanks actually! Keep standing up for what you believe in. Much love.

      @tmariesmith Před rokem +36

      I agree with you 100%...Many people think that condoning violence is morally wrong but so is being a violent person!!! Therefore, it is usually a normal human's reaction to say exactly what you said...It was my reaction to this song and still is every time I listen to it!!! It usually ends up the exact opposite...nobody steps in to help and the woman ends up dead! Better him than her....I wish someone would have done that for me and my Mom when I was a kid!!! Love your reaction!!!!

But never again i can still remember the sound of his crying and begging. No man should ever let that type of behavior go unpunished. It happened over and over cops could do nothing to stop him.

    My mother stopped her car for a woman getting beat at a bus stop outside of ATL. She was 100 yards from my dad's work and lit into that guy. She was 66 years old and had her 3 granddaughters, ages 12,11 & 9, in the car. The 12 year old being my daughter. She's yelling at the girls to go get Papa who was at the Harley Davidson shop. He was gone by the time my dad got there, but the young woman did need an ambulance. Mama's 81 now and would still do it. She's not as spry now and my dad is gone. She and my grandmother taught us to stand up for others.

    HARDY released this song and video and also released it as a single to radio all within a couple days apart. He gave fans only a day or two notice, but on the day he announced a new song, he said it was probably the best song he's written. Now understand that HARDY had already dominated all the songwriting awards in Nashville the last couple years before this song dropped. I think even HARDY fans who know his talent were surprised with how good and powerful this song and message was; and not only that but the credits reveal that HARDY was behind the concept of the video as well. It's directed by the regular Wallen-HARDY-ERNEST video director. But what fans of HARDY do know is that if a modern country song and video could come out this good and powerful, HARDY would be the one to do it!

    This is a modern-day Western and a great story! It really draws you in and you can't turn away. Amazing. Reminds me of Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven which is an actual Western that has a similar plot line of a lady who is seriously disfigured by a cowboy and protected by a bad Sheriff that get's Justice Served the Old Fashioned Way.

    When I was 19, I got married to someone I barely knew. He moved me off to another state, away from my family & friends. New Year’s Eve, he beat me up inside a nice club while everyone watched. (I just wanted to go home.) Someone called the cops, he was arrested & a friend took me home. I called my sister & begged her not to tell our parents. The next day, my dad & brother showed up, (they had to drive 22 hours straight). They called the cops when they got to town to meet me so I could get my things. I had no idea what was going on. My ex dropped me off & was going to get out with me but the cops stopped him & said he better just leave because her (me) dad had a loaded gun with him! Lol! Never saw him again. I thank my sister everyday for telling my parents that night & for my dad & brother who cared enough to come & get me! I’m old now & have a wonderful man & even though my dad is 90, he’d probably get his gun out again if anyone tried to hurt me! 😂❤

    I love this song and video. Country does some amazing storytelling, and this video makes me miss the 90's era when almost every song had a video that told the story. And not just country then. Music videos use to be so cool. And aging myself, but back in the day when MTV and CMT actually played music videos, I miss that. This is one of the best music videos I have seen in years. It reminds me of Reba's video for "The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia" and Garth Brook's video for "Standing Outside The Fire". You get pulled into the story and like you said, in under five minutes, this song/video gives us a better story than many two-hour long movies.

I to this day have not dated and I will never know what loves is because that was taken from me...But songs like this people can relate to I no I do and I thank him so much for it...I'm sorry for them who think your condoning this cause I think your not doing that at all...THIS SONG JUST SHOWS THAT SOMEONE CARED ENOUGH TO STAND UP FOR HER...YES IN THE WRONG WAY BUT HE SAVED HER LIFE AND SHE NEW IT AND SO DID HE.

Actually found out after the fact that my daughter had been beaten to the point of spending time in the hospital, didn't know it till a couple years later, as I was not in my daughters life as much as I'd have liked to been, divorce, circumstances, etc. Once I did find out, he paid a price!!! I didn't kill him, but he spent more than 3 weeks in a hospital recovering from the beating I gave him, and the warning I gave him, he NEVER told the police who had assualted him, even though I told him exactly who I was, before I beat him down within an inch of his pathetic and miserable, drug fueled life.

    • @54raceman
      @54raceman Před 4 měsíci

      My dad abused my mom and the law enforcement in that county always took his side because his grand parents were major donors to them she finally had enough and left with me while he was a work and moved back home the judge at the time here and the prosecutor both was family friends unknown to him so when he started making threats about coming here it didn’t take long for my family and might as well be family to be informed that anything they did to him in this county short of putting him in the ground would be thrown out as self defense before they even spent the night in jail
      (They both knew that it was gonna happen anyway if he came around so wasn’t point in telling them not to lol)

Many years ago I had to run with my 3 babies to save our lives, we started over with only the clothes we were wearing, I had tried to get help, but the cops were useless ( they looked at my bloody busted up face and told me if I did as I was told he wouldn't hit me) and after years of getting away with it, he just got worse and worse. Every situation is different, but the constant is that no one has the right to abuse another person.

It's the sort of song that makes you fist-pump when he sings "wait in the car". At the end of it, I wonder if the intention of the video was to make you think she intended to just keep waiting for him in his truck.
