[@AbdeelMarketing]

It was the flag of the Culpepper Minute Men during the revolution, to be precise.

[@soggyraccoon882]

When he says "as a country boy, you know I can survive", I believe he is referencing 'A Country Boy Can Survive' by Hank Williams Jr. It's definitely one that you should check out on your country journey.

[@jenniferellison3480]

YES! Love to see them react to that song.

[@travispoole30]

That would be awesome

[@yourmom5451]

Yep

[@Gutslinger]

He also references that song with the two lines that preceded that one. "Cause Hank taught me just how to stay alive. You'll never catch me out the house without my 9 or .45."

[@wolfpuck5136]

Honestly I'm not a fan of Hank Jr. But Hank Sr. And Hank III are the shit

Yeah they are! I have loved all the songs that they have reviewed that I have seen. It's such a true look at these different songs from so many different genre's.

[@williamdrake6711]

The “Don’t Tread on Me” flag is a very important representation of American history. Nowadays, the United States is proud about its freedom - sometimes even stating that it is the freest country in the world. The Gadsden flag however, represents the time when America is in the process of fighting for its freedom. Therefore, it is a wonderful symbol of the country’s strength and willpower

[@andersonprimer]

This. The Gadsden flag and the rattlesnake are old symbols that represent the ruthless American spirit and determination to protect one's values. Comes from the Revolutionary war era.

[@YOSHI450R]

The militants who fought the British empire flew the Gadsden Flag they were known as the Continental Marines. It was one of America's Flags before the stars and stripes flags we are still using. The flag was also primarily used by the tea party and libertarians. The Gadsden Flag is the people's flag. Don't Tread on Me is meant to remind the governing body not to mess with the people because the people (snake) are timid until provoked and are bite is lethal. It's an amazing flag with an amazing meaning and history.

[@michaellyons7037]

Perfectly said….

[@whitneybutler1077]

dont tread on me is basically dont mess with me and I wont mess with you.. We live by that in the south :)

[@tristanwatkins6666]

Absolutely in the south. It is also a flag that was used back in the revolutionary war. Look it up.

Not just the south. Hell I have it tattooed on my shoulder on the Gadston flag and on the other side I have an american flag. And, I'm not the midwesterner. Though theres little difference between the two at this point. We're mostly cons and Patriots. And of course hunt, fish and have tons of guns

[@bryarmurdock6940]

I was wondering who it was... That's awesome!

[@ColinRichards1]

I know its George..... but honestly, I wish in this song it was his grandfather like they say. That would be awesome to me, if it was possible obviously.

[@stilly1364]

[@Mr.M1STER]

Guys, the flag he was talking about with the rattlesnake and the "Don't tread on me" slogan is called the Gadsden flag. "The flag is named after American general and politician Christopher Gadsden (1724-1805), who designed it in 1775 during the American Revolution. It was used by the Continental Marines as an early motto flag, along with the Moultrie flag" (Wikipedia reference)

[@jesusischrist1527]

Mr.Mister I just came across your comment after I just commented close to the same ... The coils representing 3 sixes and then refer to Luke 10:19 in the Bible for what Jesus says about it ... Then reference the motto devil dogs and their oohrah which was actually huerah which means evil light .. this is why they were called devil dogs ... This country is not what people think and it wasn't established for the reasons or time they think ... We've been here way before were taught in school and this is actually Babylon and the statue of liberty is the whore of Babylon ... Welcome to Babylon people ... Everyone has been lied to and it's coming out more and more everyday ... Christopher Gadsden was an illuminati satanist just like the rest of the sick people buying and selling slaves(the lost tribes) and no they were never lost they were covered up and forced out of a recognizeable state to hide the truth of how sick and horrible this worlds leaders are.. Keep sending your kids to public schools to be brainwashed because everything is all for a reason and the public schools are on a mission to rid the world of the truth - Jesus Christ!!!!! Welcome to the God less generation... I hope you all come to know and trust in Jesus Christ as your savior because He is your only chance to leave this slave trap world ... It's not about money or oil and it never was but really all over your soul and money and fame has been the number 1 tool they use backed by historical lies and irradicating Jesus to blind you from what is really happening in America... This is why all the empirical leaders are really protected under immunity because they know exactly what's going on and have been a part of it since day one which is the actual reason for taking over this country not discovering it .. it wasn't discovered but conquered in an attempt to have free rain from God's laws not tyranny... You can thank the LAWLESS ONE for this place were in... Welcome to the truth ... Take all the pieces and put them together and it's self explanatory after that .. all you need is the truth(Jesus Christ) and ask our Heavenly Father for the wisdom to see what is really going on and to try not to be a part of It... Have a good one guys and stay blessed ....

[@01sickpuppy91]

Dude you are a clueless rectum... The flag implies if you want to step on me be prepared to to get a deadly reaction. you spinning this into some kind of moral or political/ religious shit just shows you don't have any common sense.

[@injusticeserved6511]

dont tread on me is a slogan telling the govt dont trample on our constitutional and God given rights

[@anitamelon3559]

His reference to the flag with rattlesnake with the words " Don't tread on me" is a historical American flag from the American Revolution designed by General Christopher Gadsden. The snake was a symbol used in the 13 original colonies. It is now a motto flag that has been used by the Libertarian Party and the Tea Party

[@christopherhudson9383]

Anita Melon I’m pretty sure he was referencing the flag the NRA uses

[@justinshamburger2701]

Christopher Hudson he's referencing the Gadsden Flag, and he also has that phrase tattooed across his neck

Anita Melon wow I had no idea ....dude I think you overdid this comment we all new what he ment

[@Dampiel]

Nope it's the Gadsden.

[@KatoJari]

many people in the NRA use the gadsden dint tread on me flag. its the same flag and a motto for anyone who wont let any power walk all over them

[@russreeps1373]

A+ , well done as always. George Jones is the "Devil" legendary country icon. Charlie Daniels another country legend (Devil went Down to Georgia) is also in the song playing the fiddle and talking at the end, and Chris Young worked on this song's composition as well. "Dont Tread On Me" is on Gadsden's flag. Positioned below a rattlesnake are the words "DONT TREAD ON ME." The flag is named after American general and politician Christopher Gadsden (1724-1805), who designed it in 1775 during the American Revolution. It was used by the Continental Marines as an early motto flag, along with the Moultrie flag. Its exactly how he describes it in the song. Yellow flag with a coiled rattlesnake on it and the words underneath. Keep up the great work l..l,

[@Koldatt]

#lostinvegas at around 8:15 What he is referencing is the Gadsden flag, it is the yellow rattle-snake banner with the words " dont tread on me" at its base. The banner was one of the first recognized American flags during the revolt and the eventual revolution.

[@BeKindToBirds]

Older than the United States, older than the stars and stripes. Don't tread on me

[@brandonzaidi9717]

That flag is also the basis of the replacement for the jack that flies on the jackstaff of all US ships in port. Essentially the Gadsden flag over a background of red and white stripes.

speaking from a true Texan country boy: Aaron Lewis is/was welcomed just as Darius Rucker was welcomed into country. They both have amazing talent. In-fact I think they both sound better as country artists, just seems to really bring out their true talent. If you want a nice video idea react to Sam Hunt - Break Up In A Small Town. Its a strange blend of several types of music genere. But amazing.

The voice you hear as the devil is "OL POSSUM", the late great George Jones.. If you ever want to venture into a truly great legend of country, that is the man to listen to. And just about anything and everything by him is the best there is in country music...like Who's Gonna Fill Their shoes and He Stopped Loving Her Today. I recommend you check him out.

The rattlesnake flag that says “don’t tread on me” was the flag that was flown by the marines during the revolutionary war against Great Britain which was meant to say exactly what you said. Telling Great Britain “don’t f@&k with us. Keep up the good work guys. Love your vids

[@SA-5247]

Yeah it really does gets a negative condonation because of Hollywood. Also, the history of it actually goes back before that. Look up Ben Franklins letter to King George III... What you're referencing is a battle cry from a specific militia. At the time, it was basically a recruitment tool that worked! The ignorant think it means something else.

[@Mr.Heinous]

As a 39 yr old guy who's heard a ton of music throughout every genre..he is definitely one talent that I'll always listen to. Whether he's up or down in peoples eyes.

[@laraesanford8605]

Unfortunately, this kind of country isn't played on country radio. Have loved your country reviews. George Jones, country legend, being the 2nd voice on this song...fought alcoholism and addiction. Being coined "no show Jones" back in the day for missing shows due to drunkenness. He straightened his life up long before his death but always fought that particular demon. He was the original singer of the Chris Stapleton song that you reviewed "Tennesee Whiskey", also having a famous song called "White Lightning." The one speaking at the end is another country legend Charlie Daniels, famous for Devil Went Down to Georgia. Don't forget about the ladies of country y'all . ❤ I know those reviews are coming.

It’s funny how the singers from up “north” keep the country original and the ones south have turned it into pop music, I’m from Ohio and I’ve been south plenty of times now on vacation to Florida(my mom use to live there and has family down there) and what I’ve gathered from it the people where I come from is as country as southerners or more so...

[@mikefelty2625]

I'm a born and raised Texan, and have met people from all over this country. One funny thing that I've noticed is that the further north you go, the more "southern" people tend to be. The exception to this is people that are from urban areas in and around most big cities. Talk to someone from a rural area of Michigan or Minnesota or even upstate New York, and may be surprised at how "country" they act. And don't even get me started on Montana or Wyoming. They may as well be considered southern states as well.

I love Aaron Lewis. I accept him as a country singer 💯. These days staying strictly just one genre can keep you locked in a box with no room to grow. I'm really happy he came to the country scene. Though I love him as a rock artist too. I just love him!

[@debbiesa34]

This what, I’m talking about ♥️♥️♥️♥️His voice, he can sing about anything. And sound FREAKIN AWESOME ♥️🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

[@debbiesa34]

I got two tickets to check him out! In November 2020

Don’t tread on me... Don't tread on me is a historic expression of American patriotism and freedom.

Discovering your channel was the best thing I found in KZbin in 2017 !! Godbless you guys, unbiased critique, sensational reactions, very open to the musical orientation I grew with since I was 9 (Metal, heck yeah !!) Thank you for the great positive opinions and the sweet discussions about every detail of the songs !! Wish you a great xmas vacations, and hope to see more and more of you guys in the next year !! Peace & Blessings

MY STEP DAD GOD REST HIS SOUL DID NOT LIKE COUNTRY BUT I TOLD HIM TO LISTEN TO THIS CAUSE I LOVE COUNTRY AND HE LOVED IT TO

[@hmslovesmonkeys1403]

my step dad was more into rock and roll then country music but he liked it cause of the words in the song that is why

Gadsden flag has a very significant meaning along with other flags during the American revolution. Hope y’all look it up! Yes the don’t tread on me is because of the rattlesnake. It’s eyes are always open. Meaning it is always vigilant against tyranny.

[@Southern-GenX404]

Gadsden Alabama ?? This is where I live.. Ive got to check that out. Thank you

[@Le9alkiller]

Man I’ve been following you guys for a bit. Aaron is my favorite artist, I can’t believe I’m just now seeing this 🤯

[@richarddavis2338]

He does an acoustic tour singing all his songs from his time as front man with stained . Then he does some of his country songs and even a few by Pearl jam , prince , rascal Flatts and more . I've seen him 6 times

[@tmoney80]

Richard Davis He definitely doesn't "cover" Rascal Flatts... He covers the original artist to try to do it justice because he feels Rascal Flatts ruined the song. Personally I like all 3, but honestly, Aaron puts both predecessors to shame...

[@oldedominion8782]

Great video again, thanks! You guys GOTTA do a video on "Copperhead Road" by Steve Earle

I respect what you guys do. Music has this incredible ability to bring us all together and you are very good at being open to all genres. I listen to all genres but Country is what I grew up on and it will always have my heart. I love watching people discovering the amazing stories that Country music has to offer. Keep bringing people together you guys are awesome!!!

[@Shadow73189]

Aaron Lewis ROCK!!!! It sounds like you guys are open minded. And that’s the way to be. I’m subscribing to your channel.

[@janelem6218]

Country boy can survive could be a shout out to Hank William Jr’s “A Country Boy Can Survive” from around 1980-ish. Huge hit for Hank Jr. You guys should react.

[@cody1001]

The "devil" was George Jones, another great country singer.

[@markcarpenter4520]

CHOOZ GOOZ Ralph Stanley was the devil

[@markcarpenter4520]

Ralph Stanley was the devil in the song and was a renown blue grass singer. He was brought to the attention of the mass culture for his Death song in Brother where Art Thou the movie.

[@fire1937]

Mark Carpenter what you said about Ralph Stanley is spot on, however George Jones is who sings with Aaron here. Google Images of Ralph and George then check the main video out and see for yourself.

[@TheJustJoe]

Charlie Daniels at the end of course and yes George Jones singing

[@MARC11B]

www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=20161 "The video features Jones, Daniels and Young in the studio and draws from Lewis' family archives. "The video really is me. This is probably the most I've ever participated in any video that I've been involved with. I added a lot to the mix to tell the story."

[@delilahcagle6384]

I’m proud of him for going back to his roots! You will always come back home!

[@saraspicer628]

Hey I'm a southern girl, about as country as they come,lol so hell yes this is one many blare on the radio in my small town, when your raised listing to Hank Williams jr, Charly Daniel's, (to name a couple) it's hard not to respect his voice, and he's lyrically genius, it's so easy to relate to what he's saying, dirt roads, that was really just your long ass drive way you had to walk every day after school, lol no really it's nice to just take the back roads home just to clear your mind, family that keeps you stronge and going, the smell of a wood stove in the morning, when you live the simple life you get to saver the little things that make life amazing, so I don't blame him for wanting to go back to his roots,

[@LostInVegas]

Thanks for sharing Sara! You painted a nice picture!

[@garrettbollig761]

that extra voice in the song was GEORGE JONES, commonly acknowledged as the greatest to ever do it. name a chart topping country artist and their favorite country singer is likely to be george jones. also this song references several country tropes including "devil wne down to georgia" by Charlie Daniels Band when playing strings while he says the part about signing up with the devil, "country boy can survive" by hank williams jr, and finally a libertarian/conservative flag that says "dont tread on me"

[@macastillo2683]

Garrett Bollig Garrett Bollig Charlie Daniels was in the song too, he was the voice and fiddle player at the end.

[@rockchic733]

This is definitely one of those songs that show up anytime my family is over and gets a hold of the sound system. I’ve heard it a million times but have never paid attention to the lyrics so I was excited to see that you did a video on it. Great work and can’t wait for the next one. Still holding out for some Alice In Chains! My vote still goes to I Know Something (Bout You) (it’s just so groovy!) or Hate to Feel (those guitar riffs!), but Love Hate Love has great lyrics and amazing vocals. Honestly I’m excited for anything

[@lgd1974]

I love how you guys take time to pay attention to the lyrics. You've done a lot of react videos for bands I love. Mostly hard rock and heavy metal. Would love for you guys to switch gears into some classic alternative/ early 80s New Wave / first wave gothic rock.

[@portishphonic]

[@thomassims207]

it was david coe

[@Slamson2]

Thomas, That wasn't David Allan Coe. It was in fact George Jones.

[@Slamson2]

Thomas, I think you were thinking that Charlie Daniels at the end was David Allan Coe.

[@blakegodwin3507]

It’s George Jones...

[@Cloudedreign]

I've been a Country all my life and I really enjoy listening to your impression of my favorite genre. I am checking out your other videos now. Never really been willing to give Rap a chance but I really like Lecrae, Fear. Found out about him from your vids Thank you for branching out to Country. If you would like a recommendation for someone Country that can appeal to your audience I would suggest Willie Nelson fantastic voice old school feel. Keep it up. Thanks for doing Country too.

Guys, if you're wondering what the "Don't Tread On Me" is referencing, read up on the Gadsden Flag. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadsden_flag Love your videos.

I'm a guy from NW Indiana but grew up on country music. Aaron Lewis and everyone else are the main reasons I left and moved out west to live the good life as a ranch hand. I owe country my all. Thanks for appreciating it!
