Darius Rucker played this song in Djibouti Africa for us troops in 2013. Every soldier was singing at the top of their lungs. Yes, it made me miss home and my wife. It was the greatest gift we could receive. Thank you, Mr. Rucker. Thank you for supporting the troops!

[@Mark_MOORE_VFL]

I'm so glad that Darius made the choice to do country music he has such an incredible voice and was born to sing country

[@johnlake4809]

She is soo beautiful. Not just her looks but her spirit

[@Perfect_Blend]

I love Darius. He lives here in Charleston area and often gives free concerts to raise money for charities.

[@kimberlyosborne1977]

I don't think I've ever heard him be so personal. I like when they show that side. ❤❤❤ The studio version you can hear his words better. This has such a fun beat.

[@chuckw1610]

Britt, Darius certainly does this song justice. However, you need to hear Old Crow Medicine Show do it. Also the fiddle and violin are the same instrument. Country folks typically call it a fiddleand they're usually played in a different style.

[@DavidKing-ut9wr]

And Bob Dylan wrote it.

[@dscotthoward7467]

David Bromberg used to say "the difference between a violin and a fiddle is that you can spill beer on a fiddle!

Old Crow definitely the better version

Iv thought the same thing, used to live about a hr from Myrtle Beach and they live there a lot ,fun times,

[@breese42]

He was Hootie!

[@davidryan2669]

I love his voice and personality. I've listened to him for years. He mentions Johnson City, Tennessee and it just so happens I just moved there in January of this year, 2023.

[@arlo2203]

being recorded in a nashville sound stage, that's why the audience sounds so good, because most of them are probably studio session singers... just going to a concert.

[@kimzwolinski9919]

This was the first thing I heard outside of Hootie and the blowfish,. I was surprised how much I liked it. This song was a huge hit for him 😊❤

[@danmadison1244]

Just for giggles, a violin has strings. A fiddle has strangs

[@susanpeterson9947]

I hadn’t heard this version before, you sure can hear the bluegrass roots! The words are much clearer in the official video and you get a cameo appearance by Lady A(ntebellum). They dropped antebellum a few years ago because of negative connotations.

[@1lthrnk]

Song co-written by Bob Dylan and Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show. Dylan recorded the chorus in 1973; Secor added verses 25 years later.

[@P-J-W-777]

Met that man in a hotel elevator in a small little port town in Texas. I just acted like I didn’t know him however we said hi and spoke to each other on the short ride and walk down the hall on the same floor. The next morning we sat across from him and his family during breakfast the next morning and I continued to act like I didn’t know him until we left and my phone rang playing a Hootie song and then I said have a safe and great trip Mr. Rucker. He smiled when the phone rang but even bigger when he realized I knew he was. Glad he just got to be himself and have a few normal friendly conversations.

[@rik4369]

Much Respect. I lived in LA for a while a d would see celebrities all the time. I never bother them, as they deserve some peace an space. What you did was FIRST CLASS! Semper Fi

[@P-J-W-777]

@@rik4369 Thanks and likewise! It’s just their job. Yes it gains attention but they are no different than you and I. I have an uncle who’s country band made it big in the 90’s so I know first hand they love what they do and most musicians do it for that very reason. You have some of the more modern artists who do it for fame but either way they still enjoy their peace and free time just like anyone else. It was funny through, Mr Rucker was wearing and Country Music Television t-shirt the first day we met him. I’ve always loved the fact that he really enjoys all genres of music. He was a really nice guy. Always Faithful - I’m assuming you’re a Marine! My father was a Marine Vietnam Vet.

[@hlawrencepowell]

The song "Wagon Wheel" was written by Bob Dylan and Ketch Secor. The song has an interesting history: Bob Dylan originally wrote a sketch of the song in the 1970s but never completed it or officially released it. Years later, Ketch Secor of the band Old Crow Medicine Show discovered the unfinished Dylan song and wrote additional verses to complete it. The version popularized by Old Crow Medicine Show became a major hit and is the most well-known rendition of the song. "Wagon Wheel" has since been covered by various artists, further contributing to its widespread popularity.

[@David_.1987]

Not many people know he wrote this song but that's nothing new when it comes to Dylan the greatest songwriter of all time

[@youshaveice]

The sketch was performed fireside by Dylan in the film Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid.

[@412foto]

Bet Darius is one of the most chill and fun people in the world to hang out with.

[@robertamigliore8504]

Goes to show you producers and record people don’t always know what the fans like to hear. I think that sounds amazing. Should’ve been out on the album a long time ago.

[@cmiller6391]

This song lifts my spirits and makes me move every time I hear it!

[@ericburks1913]

I actually met him. He has a genuine warmth and friendliness.

I saw him sing this live in person, he's amazing!!! You're reaction is exactly how our crowd was😊👍 this one gets everyone involved!

[@BurnieThompsonShow]

8:20 - His voice sounds like a cigar room. Yes!! Perfect, you nailed it again. 👏👏

[@barnabusbucky]

Ms. Britt, I just loved your eager, curiosity to this time tested classic, and how you just got down and joyfully grooved right along to the end! ✌🏽

[@janiceschwab4321]

Love this song! Darius Rucker sing it so well!!

[@LtFrankDrebin100]

My guy Darius’s diction is impeccable. This was performance was very intentionally mumbly to fit the instrumentation. The Darius Rucker KZbin deep dive is a glorious trip. Incredible vocalist.

[@dalejestes8166]

His video version is so much better than the live version...

[@jennlee7929]

It’s easier to understand his words in the official music video that he did for this song but it’s great to know the story behind the song now too I actually have the album that the song is on and it is one of our favorites

[@DewayneGore]

You should really do the official music video :)

[@EmilyWilsonkrkrjrrj]

Darius is a true southerner from Charleston, his accent especially when singing is so strong it’s amazing

[@soupsoup1031]

He is country and he knows the backroads.

[@katherandefy]

Oh I love Darius. A Bob Dylan song. No wonder it’s so good.

[@GranpaMike]

Watch the official video, top shelf stuff. I've been a huge fan of Old Crow Medicine Show's version of this song since it first released, couldn't imagine anyone else doing it justice. Now there are two versions to love!

[@jimschwalbe8618]

I just have to say I love your reactions. Your heart felt reactions, warm personality and loveliness combined together is just the best. I am a fan.

Same instrument. It's all in the style. Can you play the violin? No, I just like to fiddle around with it. And round and around and around.

He says Lady A, The group was Lady Antebellum. Apparently the word Antebellum is offensive now, so they had to drop it. Much like the Dixie Chick's, now they're just The Chick's.

[@davedammitt7691]

They CHOSE to drop it.

[@Mad_Oph]

Darius Rucker is the man, and Hootie was an awesome band with a great catalogue that was overshadowed by a radio hit; I'll die on that hill. You definitely need to check out Old Crow Medicine Show, the guys that originally created this song from an unused Bob Dylan piece, they play some real fine bluegrass.

[@HollerMa71]

Yes, this is absolutely a knee-slapping, hand-clapping, toe- tapping song 🎶 The official video is honestly a clearer version of the lyrics. Plus, some of the Robertson family from "Duck Dynasty" are in it! ❤

[@halah34]

Oh man, I remember Hootie from my college days. I went to Clemson, Darius was in USC. The band found him when he was singing in the shower one day. It’s weird to see him now, because we are getting old and grey 😂

[@glennvanzandt2394]

I agree Britt. I love knowing the background to songs.

[@normanwright6466]

Great reaction, you are a gorgeous young lady, so full of energy!

[@civlwrbuf]

If you watch the music video, you get cameos from the Robinson family of Duck Dynasty fame. Also this was an unfinished Bob Dylan song, that 17 year old Ketch Secor picked up and finished with Dylan's blessing. A real treat is seeing Secor and Rutger doing the song together on the Grand Old Opry

[@quintondees4501]

This song is actually pretty old, it's been redone several times, but he rocks it!!!

[@kevinmarshall854]

You need to watch him singing in his first band "Hootie and the Blowfish.

2 members of Lady A also appeared in the official music video - they were the last of several folks he hitched a ride with. Amusing how all the redneck truck drivers he hitched with all sang along. 🙂

[@mikefetterman6782]

Originally, unused parts of the song were written by BOB DYLAN. THe OLD CROW MEDICINE SHOW famous recorded it a few years before Darius found it.

[@David_.1987]

Man bob Dylan is one of the greatest songwriter ever he First wrote the song in 1973 when he was doing the music for the movie Pat Garrett and Billy the kid and was later cover by old crow medicine show in 2006 and the Darius Rucker 2013

[@quiltie1774]

I never noticed how beautiful your hands are! They look great for piano playing!

[@randyhaynes832]

I met Darius back in the late 80's early 90's he was with Hootie and the Blowfish they were a young band at the time, they performed at a local small college I knew the promoter and got to hang consume some adult beverages and just chat super cool and genuine dude.

[@ricksmith780]

Darius will always be Hootie to us in SC and represents USC you go girl

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

If Darius is remembered for no other contribution to country music, this is enough.

[@KendallWare-ut4xu]

You should do old grow medicine shows version of the song

[@BelleDede01]

In his official video, (which is more interesting than this one), you would see The Duck Family was in Darius' dream at the beginning. Uncle Si was the driver in the antique pick-up truck and the family was in his bus when Darius 'woke up' from his sleep. Also, the bouncer was a member of the Duck Dynasty family. In case you didn't know, the Duck Dynasty 1) are the owners of the wooden duck calls for duck hunting and 2) had a TV show by the same name (funny too). BTW, this song at concerts or events, will rise up the crowd like a few other songs (like Red Solo Cup and Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue both by Toby Keith). Seems everybody knows the words to it too. ;) BTW, the couple drinking and dancing is the country singers Lady Antebellum kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZXTZXqCopymndE

[@michellejackson6679]

Love me some Darius Rucker.. Took me awhile to realize he's also Hootie from the Blow Fish..

[@kinjiru731]

Love that song and the irony of the story, for me, is that I've never heard any version of it than his. Also, so weird to think this is the same dude as in Hootie and the Blowfish!

[@graysoncarter85]

if you get a chance check out Darius Rucker "Let Her Cry" live he explains that its technically the first country song he ever wrote.. He has always had once of my favorite voices in music and growing up Hootie And the Blowfish was one of my favorite bands

[@matthewdooley7855]

My home town gets a shoutout in this song, though most people miss it because of the "nice long tolk" (puff puff) 😂 Also, I mean, almost all songs are about love of some sort, right? This one is just more cheeky about it! These lyrics started with BOB DYLAN - Old Crow Medicine Show carried them for a few years, and then Darius rolled it forward.

[@annettemorgan9707]

He use to sing in a group called HOOTIE AND THE BLOWFISH. They were awesome.

[@smalltowntexian6239]

You might give some of his old songs a listen back when he was with Hootie and the Blowfish. "She talks to angels" is a great one to check out!!
