[@BourbonCountryReacts]

To move your song (or bourbon) to the front of the list, please bribe us by sending a bottle of bourbon, preferably one we haven't had on the channel yet, to: BCR 484 E. Carmel Dr. Suite 155 Carmel, IN 46032

[@deweymotes3352]

I know it’s not a bourbon by any means. Have y’all tried Blue Flame ?

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I have not. - Keith

[@jeffdetmer4681]

Guys, this was written by the amazing satirist/writer Shel Silverstein, who also wrote a song Bobby recorded called The Winner (good for a chuckle too) and he also wrote Cash's Boy Named Sue.

[@nickiepennington3285]

Love Y'all from Louisiana. 😆 You need to hear Red Sovine "Teddy Bear." I don't drink so I still can't suggest a good one for you. I sure do enjoy watching you hear songs I grew up listening to.

[@lisaray9944]

Oh Teddy Bear is a tear jerker

[@billmikyska5990]

Try the song Numbers by him or Diet. Both are good and funny too

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Votes added for all of those requests -Dustin

[@nataliebehrnes6464]

Yes! Teddy Bear 🧸 is a classic but have a tissue nearby!

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

That's a tear jerker!

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

Marie LaVeau is STILL revered in New Orleans. People still leave small gifts at her tomb in the city.

[@slimfallslegend5225]

Just saying this for anyone that doesn't know, Marie Laveau is a real person

[@sandramoore]

Was, not is.. I think she has long been dead.

[@rhondabaker1064]

Thank you so much! I grew up listening to Bobby Bare. He can be extremely funny! I’m so glad you are touching on the classics as much as the current ones. Thank you again.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Thank you for watching! And, we love the OGs, so keep those requests coming. - Keith

[@hollypinkley7936]

Bobby Bare was great back in the day - he basically "discovered" Waylon Jennings singing in a dance hall in Texas!!!! He also recorded "500 miles" & - " Detroit" and the ever-popular "Drop Kick Me Jesus(through the Goal Post of Life) !!!! He was a 70's star!!!

[@paulaegraham]

This song was written by Shel Silverson (the one Where the Sidewalk ends) . Marie Laveu was a voodoo queen around the end of the 19th century.

[@Butterflyandhearts95]

I knew as soon as you heard “one eyed snake” and starting snickering exactly what you were thinking. Lol

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

That snake would have no depth perception… -Dustin

[@ruthsaunders9507]

Too funny! I love this song. Shel Silverstein wrote the best story songs. I was in Kuwait in 2012 during Mardi Gras and worked with a Guard unit out of New Orleans. They built a float and we had a party without alcohol. They had a female Sgt Major that belted out Marie Laveu and we all sang along. It was a hoot. I grew up with Mum's 45 but I'd never heard it sung in a group setting like that. Have you done Johnny Cash, A Boy Named Sue?

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

We haven't yet, Keith knows that one, but I don't -Dustin

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

Yes!!!!!! Lol!!

[@marycarricaburu3683]

Did I hear "Froggie Went A Courtin"? Oh My, I used to sing that song many hears ago, one of those songs you can keep adding verses.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I have video of my Great Grandpa singing that, he was a hoot -Dustin

[@TheAcrylicAvenger]

Some more Bobby Bare classics......Daddy What If.....Detroit City.....Dropkick Me, Jesus

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I'll add those to the list -Dustin

[@duanes8209]

if you ever go to New Orleans, there is a shop on Bourbon Street that is called the Marie Laveau House of Voodoo. pretty interesting to say the least

[@hollyp6395]

Before I even watch the video, I know this is going to be awesome. I saw Bobby Bare in Monterey, CA back in 83/84 at a little club. He is hilarious and I'm excited to see how you guys like him and react. Love seeing the OG's on your channel. True country/comedy right here!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

We like the OGs too. We hope you guys request more of them (or send us bribes).

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Oh how funny, this grandma giggled like a juvenile, thanks guys!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

lol, believe me, we were holding back. - Keith

[@dawnr6381]

Fishin in the Dark by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Added that to the list -Dustin

[@juliapernicka2698]

In my much younger days this was a fun country dive bar band song. Get up, dance, be stupid, and get loud. Miss those days.

[@thesingleequestrian413]

This is one of my favorite songs to play for Halloween 🎃 your reaction popped up so here I am

[@lisaray9944]

You can actually visit Marie Laveau’s grave in New Orleans only on the tour of the cemetery.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

A friend of mine may have been there. I'm going to be asking him. - Keith

[@CLynns]

Bobby Bare knows how to tell a story. I like this song. But if y'all go down to New Orleans and run into Marie Laveau, RUN she died in the 1880s. 😂 Her tomb is the most visited in any cemetery. She was a scarey voodoo preistess. Damn that bourbon is a beautiful amber color and that cinnamon means a nice smooth flavor to me. And it's Friday, y'all are allowed to be 12.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Not kidding even a little bit about how much cinnamon flavor is in this. And, apparently, really comes out with small sips. - Keith

[@CLynns]

@@BourbonCountryReacts Hot cinnamon or sweet? We talking apple pie or big red gum?

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

@@CLynns Yes. lol, so, the initial and mid is "apple pie" cinnamon, and the finish is "big red."

[@CLynns]

@@BourbonCountryReacts might have to give it a try.

[@wgj4everlong426]

Bare is awesome.He told Chet Atkins he needed to sign Waylon for starters.For more Bare start with The Winner

[@sueg3650]

Oh, that's an old favorite for me! Thanks so much for playing it. If you get a chance, search for a fan-made video of this song. It's title is "Music Video by CC Productions"...it's hilarious!

[@greeneyelove2003]

Oh man, I haven't heard this in years. LOL. Great reaction.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Thanks!

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

I'm watching this again; knowing my family plays this at reunions.... we have a blast with it! 🤣

[@leslie7976]

There are so many OGs with funny songs really hard to pick. Another OG with funny songs you should check out Jerry Reed. Two of my favorites are, She got the gold mine I got the shaft and Mr. Ford. Johnny Cash Flushed from the Bathroom of your heart. For more of Bobby Bare I would suggest I never went to bed with an ugly woman. If you want the king of OG I suggest Hank Williams Sr. Move it on over.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Votes added! -Dustin

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

OMG, Jerry could flat shred, too!!! Guy could rip up a guitar. 'She got the Goldmine' is hilarious!

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

OMG, Bobby Bare: 'Tequila, Sheila'!!!!!

[@sandie9382]

The winner is a great song my father was born in 1922 so went through the great depression in his childhood and served in the south pacific as a udt diver doing salvage and diffusing underwater mines and boobytraps he had a tremendous grin but you didn't seeit often but this song would always pull it out

[@mattstewart7818]

Y'all do great videos

[@Laniefj]

Yay from Georgia, more oldies. The best!! Dustin, LOVE your Hoodia. I'm a nurse. Lol.

[@donovanmesser6905]

I love that song. Idk if yall have done Big Iron by Marty Robbins, country western song thats a classic in my opinion. Love these story telling songs and country does them so well

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I've heard Big Iron. Dustin hasn't. So, it'll go on our list. - Keith

[@Beadingterri]

Loved your reaction to Bobby Bare! You should listen to his songs Praise the Lord and send me the money and The Jogger. I think you would enjoy both of them

[@shooter3083]

Bobby Bare "The Winner". You'll love it.

[@suzannepatterson307]

The screams by Marie is actually Bobbie bares kid doing

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

That's funny! - Keith

[@CassandraElaine1985]

She was the highest voodoo priestest of her time and shrines and offerings are still left for today

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I have a buddy that may know some things about that. I'll hit him up. - Keith

[@rhondabaker1064]

I had to add another comment. You two are so funny in this reaction. Another great one!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Thanks!

[@paysonbenefield7967]

A Shel Silverstein song. The man was a genius. Drew pen and ink sketches for Playboy, wrote several books for kids, including The Giving Tree and wrote a ton of country songs.

[@WizardPandora]

I listen to this song often, you two had me laughing so hard I needed my inhaler

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

hahah, glad you enjoyed it! - Keith

[@carolrutledge6076]

Glad y'all played this song your response was awesome

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Thanks!

[@davidjennings1771]

This is a deep rabbit hole and he's certainly an OG in my limited exposure to his music. The first time I heard Bobby Bare he was singing "Detroit City" in 1963 I believe. He has a huge amount of music and I and most is good I hear. Great choice Debra if he was your choice. Honestly the Who and the rest of the British Invasion got in the way of my roots! Hank brought me back and I'm jumping into this Bare hole with both feet. This BCR channel is a hoot and I like the reactions of people finding America's music again! I'll likely stay current with this channel and I'm watching all of the reviews I've missed now. Your Music & Bourbon choice has got Dustin & Keith in an entertaining mood to say the least. Thanks! The Amelas One

[@roncypert8255]

If you like this one you should listen to The Winner, another of Bobby Bare’s songs written by Shel Silverstein. Funny as hell as a young buck challenges the local badass to a fight in a bar one night.

[@wheelmanstan]

Gettin' buzzed on free alcohol while listening to legendary country music? That's what you call livin'. This song is a bit like Eddy Raven and Jerry Reed songs. They told a lot of fun stories that always had fun endings.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Yeah, it's definitely hard to complain. - Keith

[@taerdrop]

The humor in the song is an awesome plus the audience just laughing as well.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

It was sure cracking us up. - Keith

Those chicken feet made her squawk like that. Joking. Marie Laveau was a real person by the way born in 1801

He’s got a song called The Winner, y’all would love it.

Yet another great story from country music. To keep that going, have a listen to "I Watched it All on My Radio" by Lionel Cartwright. It takes me back to my childhood. Keep up the great videos, guys!

I've added a vote for that one, and we're glad you enjoyed it! -Dustin

[@jami9130]

Some OG Female songs you should listen to: Patsy Cline Crazy; Loretta Lynn Coal Miner's Daughter, Louisiana Woman Mississippi Man, or Country Bumpkin both with Conway Twitty; and Dolly Parton Coat of Many Colors, 9-5, or Why'd ya come in here looking like that?; The Judds Turn It Loose, Grampa, or Love can Build a Bridge

Votes added for all of these -Dustin

[@rodneyaccount6293]

Bobby Bare song The Winner is Great 👍

[@sandramoore]

I recommend another song sung by Bobbie Bare, and I think it was also written by the great Shel Silverstein: "Rosalie's Good Eats Cafe."

[@darrinlindsey]

Another fun story song by Bobby Bare is called Ten. It's about an egotistical man trying to rate women. He ends up getting rated and burned.

[@bandit252-]

Recommend his song called "the winner"

[@matthurley7936]

A lot of these songs were written by Shel Silverstein. One of the most brilliant and funny songwriters.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I've heard the name, but don't know any of his music. Apart from this, apparently. - Keith

[@TheLightSideReactions]

Check out "Daddy, What If?" by Bobby Bare. It's a heartwarmer. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6qtYWaobJKNaLs

[@darkomtobia]

Bobby Bare recorded a version of the Tom T Hall song "Homecoming". Either version is great. To my ear, it speaks subtly about how we try to present out best face to out folks when we go about our own way and do our own thing but don't want to rock the boat with the people who maintain expectations of us. Sorry for rambling.

[@RaincloudmusicTFS6]

Y'all need to cue up 'El Paso' or 'Old Red' by Marty Robbins. Master storyteller.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Stay tuned! -Dustin

Yes he is an O G, member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, check out, Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the Goal Post of Life, Numbers or Winner

Always loved this song

[@bwilliams463]

Handsome Jack's plan was NOT well-thought-out.I love the Bare; his songs often contained humorous elements, and he recorded several songs written by Shel Silverstein. Some of his best are 'The Winner,' 'Greasy Grit Gravy' and 'Streets of Baltimore.' I like his version of 'Sylvia's Mother' more than Dr Hook's, and his version of 'Me And Bobby McGee is one of the best.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Added those tunes to the list -Dustin

My face hurt from laughing at y’all

[@lisacaringello2138]

You should really react to Johnny Cash cover of Nine inch Nails "Hurt" His wife June Carter the love of his life, shown in the video died 3 months after the release of the album. He died 4 months after her.. Amazing Amazing video.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

We're both super familiar with that, and we try to keep our reactions "first time." So, likely the only way that one gets on the channel is via a bourbon bribe. - Keith

[@shaunculp4221]

Bobby bare is amazing The Winner is my favorite check it out

I'll add it to the list -Dustin

Immature warning: I don't think I have ever seen a video of anyone talking about the taste of .... I have this on vinyl. Bobby has a lot of humor in his music.

[@jerricocke987]

I nearly hurt myself laughing at you fools. Dustin it was a nice try to stay and be mature but the flat out back to the matter is Keith's 12-year-old was more appropriate under the circumstances. I grew up here in Bobby bare sing Marie laveau and I always thought it was so interesting cuz he had such a smooth Rich voice and then somebody go and I'd cringe. This was a great review KZbin well done.
