DramaSydETV: Shinedown - Simple Man (Official Video) REACTION VIDEO

[@karenvalasek145]

I always like the originals too but this is way better than the original to me. Brent Smith's amazing

[@jeremyward2027]

The lead singer is married to Ronnie Van Zant's youngest daughter Melody. They heard this song on the radio he sang along and she said that he should cover it

[@tnytka]

You have to check out shinedowns acoustic version of this

[@Blue-rl5dp]

That boy's got some pipes on him. I think they heard him all the way to India.

[@epiphany519]

I've always loved Shinedown. Brent Smith has such range and texture to his voice. Through the Ghost, I'll Follow You, State of My Head and Dangerous are "newer" tracks they've done with a new look. They are a pretty complete band to me.

[@Terri6868]

This is a tribute to LS & The singer that died & his widow. The’ re from the same town. The little girl at the end is holding his pic Van-daze (Not sure of name) It’s his granddaughter , & his daughter married the guitarist of Shinedown. Brent had trouble singing this cover for a long. My daughter told me about it. Would you do Monsters & Devil & I’ll follow you. I’m seeing them live for the first time in April. Thanks♥️

[@tiffymcconkey]

Shinedown is Epic live. Enjoy and prepare to be blown away

[@kylesexton6067]

I didn’t know that connection. Makes this cover even better.

[@bethcoussou]

I loved watching your reaction to Shinedown’s cover. I’ve actually heard it prior to seeing the video here for the first time. What I also like is how you explained and elaborated about your logo (which is kind of what I thought it was how you explained it) and your new channel logo and name. You are not apologetic for who you are as an individual, and no one should have to apologize for that, ever. I thoroughly enjoy your reactions and philosophy! Keep on doing you!

[@DramaSydETV]

Thank you Beth!!!

[@ktwebbdevil]

NOTHING tops Skynyrd's version but this is a GREAT cover! I think Ronnie Van Zant would love it! That's his granddaughter holding his picture in video.

[@JFord1234]

This is done well...My guy can belt...Both versions can be respected....Without the original we wouldn't have heard this one.....

[@rebeccaburgraff263]

Great reaction!!! Shinedown is a great band who sings alot about mental illness and addiction. They are amazing as are you. Thank you for doing this video.

[@jeannielewis5366]

I usually don't like remakes of songs either but shined down really outdid theirselves with this song you can feel the passion when he sings it you know it means something to him and it gives me chills sometimes when I listen to it.

[@anitamorgan366]

Grew up with skynyrd but this version calls to me not better but gets me

[@hellcat4127]

Love you 😘 Thanks for doing this! He's a beast, listen to his own song Monster for a great original

[@christopherjames7939]

You are the man!!!!! Thank you!!!! Don’t forget to look at I can’t outrun you by home free. You’re a king!!

[@lisliaer7999]

On the "hits you different" another one where the original and cover are just amazingly great but they hit you different is "Hurt" originally by Nine Inch Nails just a wonderfully deep and dark song. But in the early 00's Johnny Cash got the ok the Cover it and he just made that song his own deep and dark. But even the original singer/songwriter said that he was apprehensive because of how personal the song was to him about his own addiction problems, but you can't really say no to Johnny Cash when he asks to sing your song. But after he heard Johnny's version he said something to the effect "Hurt" no longer is my song, it's Johnny's.

[@rowenanunn590]

Loved this version. Great reaction!!❣✌

[@shaunriley483]

Amazing vocals!! Good lord!

[@kathys6402]

They did one hell of a lot of justice to the original by Lynyrd Skynrd. Really love this, thank you for doing this one!

[@kylesexton6067]

There’s also a version where he’s just sitting in the living room completely unplugged, it’s pretty damn good too

[@jerrygoodman6011]

I love this song and you are good man rock on

[@stacyhill9535]

This version, Shinedown's acoustic version, and the live Chris Stapleton gives me chills. All amazing in their own right. Thank you for what you do, good man.

[@maxwellmax9586]

Very cool reaction to a great song

[@jamescosner3376]

I love your reactions!!!

[@ethangospodareck4716]

Morissette does alot of covers as well. I think you'd like her 2017 Asia song Festival performance, Banal Na Aso, The Reason, Stone cold, and I wanna know what love is. She has a very strong, powerful and bright voice. And be prepared for some of her signatures..along with just her voice, they will blow you away. Thanks

[@Illawen]

OK wow, I just discovered your second channel and I'd never heard of Shinedown before. Thanks for the introduction. Very cool performance and not to take anything away from any other aspect of it, but dang he's got a cool vibrato.

[@lisliaer7999]

With this song I think most people feel is "better" because 1970's production vs 2010 production quality. But tbf Brett's voice fits this song amazingly. And the story about why they did this song is pretty fascinating.

[@mimiberghahn5527]

I absolutely agree with you when you said each group puts their "seasonings" into a song and it doesn't make it wrong unless they lose the meaning in the song. I personally prefer Lynard Skynyrd's version but it doesn't make this version wrong.

[@brendaguthrie3470]

This is one of my all time favorite songs, it was one of the first songs my husband ever played for me, so it makes me think of my husband everytime i hear it, and i love this take of it.

[@Dave-jo1hf]

Thanks for the reaction Mike. I've always liked this version. An acoustic guitar with Brent Smith's intensity and style it's keeping this great song alive. I put this rendition of Simple Man up there with Disturbed The Sound of Silence.

[@wayneould3819]

what a great song. telling a story that gives you a good feeling inside. such a feeling song. thanks for the reaction

[@kbchef9205]

Sawyer Fredericks does a great version of Simple Man.

[@judgildea]

Yup..

[@timmertwotone1]

With your background, you should really check out Best Rapper Ever by Tom McDonald. He is 100% independent and his girl does all his videos. It falls right into your wheelhouse.

[@avagyhas]

I've never heard of this band, but they're fantastic

[@karenvalasek145]

Listen to the sound of madness CD and you'll be a fan forever

Szilárd Szabó Going to see them in April for the first time ♥️

[@luciferluci4570]

@@karenvalasek145 yes!

[@kelltic100]

Brent Smith has an amazing voice! Everything I have heard from him, was pure perfection. Not sure if you heard his collab with Apocalyptica "Not Strong Enough" and if not would love to hear your reaction to this man's amazing voice on that song. Thanks so much for such a great channel, you are so appreciated hon....

[@ethangospodareck4716]

For a different style of music, I love to listen to Morissette Amon. Some of her most known originals are Naririnig Mo Ba, Akin Ka Na Lang, Mahal Naman Kita,

[@aryansigrid]

I can see you Felt the Lyric's dude, Cool!

[@kylesexton6067]

This is the only cover of this song that I find worthy. Just my opinion.

[@ExotiicButter]

Accurate.

[@Chualland]

I like how Lost In Vegas out it. Some of these covers they already have the BluePrint created. They just have to decide how they will change the blueprint to make it more their sound. I still have to say this is a DAMN GOOD cover though.

[@kylesexton6067]

You should also check out 45. My personal favorite song from them.

[@jamescosner3376]

The Discovery Channel need you bro

[@michaeldirtywater4516]

Just every about golden rules here Love this song the Lyrics are spot on ! cool version

[@jesseduke694]

Hey man, you like originals? I do to. Im not sure if you have dun Lynard Skynard "T for texas" ? But the original was dun by Jimmie Roger's in like? 1929? There is a video of him doing it. I believe its called blue yodel no 6? Its somthing like that? If you type that in it will come up. I love it! Dont get me wrong, I love me some Skynard! But Jimmie dous it pretty cool to.

[@tazmom0]

I love both versions.

[@Prozak63]

Of course the origional by the great LS will always be a classic. To me Shinedown spiced it up as you said some do on cover songs. I think this cover added more emotion and passion.

[@phyllisb4634]

That was powerful and I appreciate your take on it and your insights. What is the name of your other channel? I know you mentioned it in a video I was watching and I couldn't check it out at the time.

[@1GoldenBreeze]

I like covers, but it's usually because the cover is my first introduction to the song, and I don't know the original artists. So far I rather enjoy the ones you do of the original artists also, but it's just a little old school and I'm not used to it. LoL

[@davejones2836]

Nice reaction dude! I know you aren't about covers, but if you get bored, check out Leo Morachiolli's version of Hello by Adele. Amazing cover

[@basskickinredneck]

I dont like alot of remakes of songs but this is one of the best.

No one can beat this cover that Shinedown did. He sings with so much conviction and soul and passion. He did Lynyrd Skynyrd justice.

[@BillnYou1]

yeah im not much on covers either .. especially classic songs like this and I like Shinedown .. I don't know why anyone would suggest you do this one .. if your doing Shinedown .. this is the best kick ass ffffing song called … Second Chance … here is the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZPWdYOYp52kpa8

[@jamescosner3376]

Your voice sounds like Morgan Freeman

[@drew65sep]

I agree with you on the "covers." The prevalence of them nowadays is not unlike "rock ballads" were in the eighties... every rock band had to do em because the recording industry required them. They wanted the "air time" on radio to ensure that money would be coming in to offset the cost of production... plus, it gets the artists/bands exposure.
