Brad Paisley - He Didn't Have to Be | Metal / Rock Fans First Time Reaction with Big House

Metal / rock fans first time reaction to Brad Paisley's "He Didn't Have to Be" while checking out some Big House

[@stacy4823]

Brad was a co-writer on this song, and it was the true-life experience of the friend who wrote it with him. I have always loved this song.

[@DSJ1967]

My husband is the dad he didn't have to be. I had a 5 yr. daughter and a 2 month old son when Martin and I started talking. After we got married, he adopted both of them . Then we had another son who is now a Sgt. In the Marines. But he never treated and of our children different. He is my hero. We are going to celebrate 25 yrs of marriage on August 2nd.

[@thecaptleefanbatman9130]

I have waited for you to get to this song. My husband who WE lost in 2017. He was an amazing dad that didn’t have to be. Ours two son’s both chose this song to be played at his service. It still gets to me every time I hear it.😢😢

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I can see why it'd get you. It's a touching song. - Keith

[@mzluna313]

I can completely relate to these lyrics! I lost the man I called dad back in 2007. I have to admit that I gave this man hell throughout my teens. I constantly disrespected him. He never faltered though and continued to treat me like I was biologically his. As we were standing in the church on my wedding day, he kissed my forehead, pulled my veil down, and told me I looked stunning. He held out his arm and said, "Are you ready?" All I said was, "Thank you for everything!" I will never forget his response. "You don't have to thank me! That's what daddies do!" ....but he didn't have to!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Wow, that is great. - Keith

[@CLynns]

😢😢😢This song has made cry from day one. I grew up with my biological dad and I'm thankful but I'm so happy for those men who love kids.😢❤

[@candiniedzielski7263]

This song made me cry because I didn't have a father for me or for my children. 😥

[@patriciatownsend]

Fun fact about this video. The baby here is Tim Mc Graw's nephew. Also, my husband is the "Dad" who didn't have to be for my son whose father was never around.

[@chelleduns8700]

I did actually watch this one all the way to the end this time and it just tells me that I should because there's these weird little golden nuggets at the end of these videos sometimes that are just worth it.

[@leslie7976]

This is one of my 24 year old sons favorite songs. He met the man he calls dad at 6 years old. One of the first things he said was, "Are you going to be my dad?" My now husband responded."I hope so." We have now been married 18 years, and he has legally adopted both my son and daughter. Who never knew their biological father. I love your reaction as always! And yes, we read the labels.

[@sandybleh2497]

I dedicated and danced with my Daddy (never called him step dad), to this song at my sister's wedding. I was married way before this song came out. He was very ill when she got married, kidney cancer. We lost him 4 years ago...he was the greatest human ever! I cry every time I hear this song. Oh and I have never read the back of any kind of liquor bottle...and I worked at my Grandpa's liquor store for 2 years

[@suemilkovich7085]

Brad Paisley guitar chops are on a David Letterman show with his performance of TIME WARP it's a Must See!!!

[@tashabutterbaugh9230]

Here's some songs that deserve a reaction Daddy's hands-holly Dunn I wouldn't be a man - josh Turner The dance-garth brooks Standing outside the fire-garth brooks Friends in low places-garth brooks (it has a 3rd verse in it, but I think he only does it in his live performances)

Added to the list. -Dustin

[@hayley_council]

*raises hand* I gotcha Dustin! And yeah, this was my first Brad song and I fell in love.

[@hayley_council]

Not sure I need to say this by the wording of the bet. I read the back of every new type of any booze I buy.

[@froggie1075]

My niece and nephew lived this song with their step daddy. He has played a major role in both their lives. He is still there for them even after their momma divorced him. To them that is their daddy no matter what. Every time I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes because they have such a wonderful man in their lives.

[@rebekahelliott5297]

This is one of the sweetest songs ever!!! Have no idea if its true for brad but its true for alot of kids. Respect to the guys who step up!!

[@JohnPaul-hm2ys]

This is one of the best songs from Brad, simple sweet storytelling. Not a lot of people react to this, so thank you both.

Dads are so important. Thank u to all the Dads that stayed!💕🙏🏻

[@camelliaroan6341]

It keeps happening to me for some reason damn it! Sometimes I click to watch your video & it's already to the part where you are reacting to the bourbon bribe & I missed the part where you react to the song & I don't know how to start it over & see what I missed. I'm terrible at computer stuff & that sucks! Love this song & I hope to get to see the whole reaction later. The man I called Daddy adopted me & my sister when we were little & he married our Mom. He died of cancer when I was 24 & never got to meet his namesake or my other son. I went into labor on the day of his funeral with my first son. I could not have chosen a better man to be my Daddy! I miss him so much! For another great song & guitar solo please react to the official music video #RemindMe by Brad Paisley & Carrie Underwood. Y'all will love it!

[@greeneyelove2003]

I have a friend, whose parents were in the marriage where they hated one another. You could feel the tension between them. When we were about 14, she came to school one day and said her mom and dad had gotten into another shouting match the night before and her ten-year-old brother stormed into the room and shouted at them to just get a divorce already. My friend said she spoke up then and said they were all miserable and enough was enough. A week later, their parents announced they were getting a divorce. So, yeah, kids know when their parents are miserable or hating one another and it just stresses them out. Kids pick up on so much more than people realize. And, once they were divorced and some time had passed, the mom and dad managed to not just co-parent, they actually became friends and each eventually remarried other people, but the animosity was gone. They were happy for one another. When my friend got married her dad and her stepdad walked her down the aisle. A really great reaction to this one. You should check out Reba's "The Greatest Man I Never Knew".

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Yeah, setting a terrible example for kids of what a relationship should look like perpetuates more bad relationships, and frankly, misery. - Keith

[@Armyaunt73]

I love this song. I met the man I called Dad when I was 3yrs. & I was so lucky to have had the greatest dad.

[@darryldavidson4824]

If I'm buying it, and I've never had it, I read the bottle, without fail. If it's a gift, I'll probably read the bottle while I'm sipping it or maybe right after I've had a bit of it. Thanks for the reactions y'all

[@aprilmassie4352]

I lost my dad who didn't have to be back in May! I seem to catch myself thinking about him when I hear this song and other songs like this! He stayed with us for a few years before he passed away! I am so greatful my kids got to know him because he really was amazing! When my family became a real family and was still together he was a great role model on what to expect from your significant other and how to treat your significant other! I am in a happy marriage because I found the right guy and never settled for less then I deserved because of him! We are hoping that our kids learn the same lesson from us! We are not just husband and wife but each other's best friend! Not only do we show each other that we love each other but also say it all the time!

[@saraturner8657]

This the best fathers day song ever

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Particularly for all the step dads out there, no? - Keith

Uggh. Guts me every single time. My son & my husband- to a T. How blessed we have been. Brad Paisley: Letter to Me. Never steer y’all wrong😉 lol Stay safe & love much💖

[@susieh1141]

Brad co-wrote this song with his best friend. The song is based on his best friends experience with his stepson.

[@Beadingterri]

My 2 oldest daughters say that this song is their Dad's song. They were 8 and 4 when my husband and I got together and he has never made a difference between the older girls and our other 2 kids. He has been their Dad in every way and all of our kids adore their Dad. I think sometimes the 2 older girls appreciate their Dad more because they know how lucky they are to have such a great Dad

[@Bumblebeeinspring]

Lots of us have stepped up to be stepmoms and stepdads...the parents we didn't have to be. 15 years and going here.

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

I love this song, so I was happy to see yall's reaction pop up in notifications, it's a beautiful song, sorry you didn't get to hear an amazing guitar solo. My late husband was such a wonderful step dad, to this day my children call him dad when they reminisce about him.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

The song was really darned good, so, I really didn't miss the guitar wizardry. - Keith

[@60sbaby70sgirl]

I so love this song.

[@tracylamb2971]

Very nice reaction, it's my favorite Brad Paisley song. Their are two songs I will work my wonky vocals around ( due to an accident) , this is 1, the other is 'Grampa' by the The Judds. We tended to supply most of our own entertainment at family gatherings.

[@chuckcorum2137]

Great song. Glad you reacted. And yes. I always read the back of any new whiskey I am trying.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Two.

[@jerricocke987]

This was a great reaction in this was an absolutely wonderful I love to

[@chuckcorum2137]

btw. Brad cowrote the song. It was inspired by the stepson of a friend and cowriter. Brad joked to the friend they should write a song about him and his stepson that would make his wife cry.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I'm betting it worked. - Keith

[@sunflowerqueen1943]

I always read the back of the bottles. So glad you guys did this song it's one of my favorite songs by him.

[@rono1506]

Ever since I started watching you guys yes I do read the bottle including any top raps that might have

[@kellyanderson7624]

I'm a single mom and the first time I heard this song on the radio, I started crying.

[@Kat._Blue]

Great reaction to a song that I love. My parents are still together and like each other. My mom says it’s because the house is big enough and they can avoid each other if necessary. 😂 my own marriage is happy and healthy as well. But my husband has the most amazing stepmom ever. His biological mom is a piece of work, but his step mom raised him and she is awesome. She loves our kids like biological grandkids and she always supports us. Kudos to your wive Keith. For doing the same for your boy and being a great stepmom. In a lot of ways I’m not a typical German, but reading stuff on the back of bottles, instructions, warning labels and so on is something I do regularly. So yes, i have to admit I read the back of whiskey and bourbon bottles. 🙈 Brad Paisley is one of my favourite country artists. My husband loves his song I’m still a guy”.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

And that's 10. Dustin wins. - Keith

[@robincridelich5179]

I LOVE Brad Paisley! He has so many awesome songs! Thanks guys!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I don't think we've heard one of his yet that we didn't like. - Keith

[@beckywiegers3315]

This was based on the life of the person Paisley co-wrote it with. Paisley is an only, and the biological, child of his parents.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

cool, thanks for the background. We were curious. - Keith

[@HurshRoad]

Pretty sure he wrote this with a good friend who had this experience.

[@beappleby]

Seconding the recommendation for the song "My Boy" by Elvie Shane (not Elvis) - another great dad who didn't have to be, and it's his own story.

[@thomasrobinson5190]

I've watched a few, liked a few, and now you have a subscriber! Would love to lift a glass with you sometime. Pretty genuine and your music tastes and how you express your thoughts is right up my alley. Looking forward to going down the rabbit hole with you.

[@Nicole_Jewell]

My older sister and her husband both took on the step parent role to each of their kids when they married in the 90s now the kids think of each other as brothers and sisters and my sister isn't his kids step mom she's mom to them now and my brother in law isn't my sister's kids step dad he's their dad now. Been that way for years cause they grew into a family just like the song says.

[@traviscummings9178]

There's a big difference between being a father and being a dad. I can only hope that I become as great a dad as mine was to me and my sister

[@greggoodman3520]

I recently (last 6-8 months) got more into whiskey, and I do read the labels on what I get. As I'm typing this, I'm about to pour a locally distilled one from Ranger Creek brewing & distilling: Rimfire, a mesquite smoked single malt whiskey. Great song, as well!

[@brianhitzone37]

Because my brother owns a taproom, I was always taught to review the bottle before buying and I still do every time.

[@stevebournite184]

Great song. And yes I read the back of the bottle. There is usually some nice history on some bottles.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Yeah, I get that history bit. I think I prefer to learn that via tours and experiences though. - Keith

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Brad has some fantastic music & is a really kind & generous human being, which tops everything else. This song is just beautiful in its simplicity. This 'wife' is an actress however, his real wife is in his video for 'I'm gonna miss her'.

[@jseneca21]

One of my favorite Brad Paisley songs. If you want more instruments y'all need to do some more Zac Brown Band. One of my favorites of theirs is the live version of the mash up "Free/Into the Mystic". It's one of my husband's favorite songs and he is not a country music fan.

[@Charitybalch]

This has no relation to this song. But you should definitely check out Jason Boland, Jesus and Ruger but almost every Jason Boland song is a great one he’s more of a red dirt country artist. 12 ounce curls, pearl snaps, and Tennessee whiskey are also amazing. Jason Boland’s Tennessee whiskey has absolutely nothing to do with the David Allan Coe/Chris Stapleton, Tennessee whiskey. It’s a completely different song. Y’all keep doing what you’re doing because I can tell you that it brings myself and others so much joy to see your reactions to music that country fans love. Although I am a little jealous that I don’t get a drink with you guys I think I’ll get over it someday. 😂😂

[@ladyred56]

[@kb_bm_24]

I read all my whiskey or bourbon bottles after I buy them, sometimes in the store if I'm not sure about something, but I have never had one anywhere near the bathroom. lol I would also like to put a vote for another Brad Paisley song for y'all to check out, it's called Me Neither and I think Keith will enjoy the guitar in that one.

[@lawannahelms1138]

I always read the back of the bottle because of you guys.

[@davidjennings1771]

I read the back of this 750 ml bottle of single barrel yesterday, that I tried to ship you. I couldn't do that from Maine. I had to buy another bottle of the same thing being delivered to BCR maybe Tuesday from a huge, big box store. It cost me over twice the price it's identical twin did in Maine, Plus shipping. --- You'll need nine more of us Dustin & Keith! It'll be my first bottle of "Likker", (as Popcorn Sutton called it) in 40 years. I'll pop the cork and savor it after you re-act to my bribe in a while. I hope to learn something new to me. I used to drink the inexpensive stuff then and never thought to be a taster, I was a drinker listening to your OG's and the British invasion, Kinks, Hollies, The Who, Stones ad-nauseum. I'm on a natural high now, not even weed. Three shots & three beers a year now only. I don't trust me with Likker much! The Amelas One wants to hear and see a video of "Sunday Morning Coming Down" (It keeps me straight). Kris Kristofferson wrote SMCD with Johnny Cash in mind and delivered it to that other Highwayman via helicopter for the second time to his yard. The direct approach worked. They sang a short Version of it together on Johhny's TV show long ago! I still liked Kris's version better. He wrote it and sang it in the style he studied of Hank Williams. Keith Richard actually recorded some Hank. Find it on the bar above your site window. Bob Dylan also studied Hank. They admired Hank Williams and his ways with lyrics and adding feeling or belief in the vocals. As Tee Tot told Hank, sing it like you mean it or lived it! All this aimless one did was enjoy it!

8:13 Another question to ponder: Do you think they should learn that marriage is something that you can just quit, just because you're not getting along? Or should they learn that marriage is going to be full of tribulations that you have to ride through and work out? My parents separated when I was 19.. How that unfolded bothered me beyond words, more than the very rough times we had when I was growing up. Haven't talked to my dad in years.

[@Diana-ks6sz]

Depends. There needs to be (calm) discussions about what the problems are and if they can find solutions. The parents both have to be willing to put in the work.

[@sabbyvk424]

While bartending I used to read the back of whiskey bottles all the time. After the liquor reps would come in and do their sales pitch and have you try it, I would read the bottle to see if the liquor reps just memorized what the bottle said or come up with their own sales pitch. Reading the bottles and trying them made it easier to make a sale. So, my vote goes with Dustin 🙋🏻‍♀️

Wow, what a song. What an incredible song. I don't fully relate because I was blessed with truly incredible biological parents that are getting ready to celebrate their 35 anniversary! But I do feel the respect and admiration that he has for his "Dad". I think this could also be sung by someone who was adopted by both parents. I'm not married, so it's not something I can decide on now, but I think if I do get married and want to have kids I will think long and hard about adoption. There are a number of genetic predispositions and problems that I see through both my parents family trees. I worry about bringing another life into this world with my genetics. I've seen the pain my parents have gone through watching me go through medical problems that probably at least partly have a genetic component. Deep thing to think about for sure, but I do think it's important to consider.

@@rogerledoux4741 thanks for the kind words. Yes, I definitely help expedite my Mom's gray hair!!! I know they don't regret having me and I do not blame them for ANY of my medical issues.
