I was 17 when this song came out. Daddy was in prison until I was 11. He always pushed me to enlist or go to college. The day this song came out I sent it to him. That man bought me my first guitar. Five minutes after sending him this, he told me "Son, maybe we're pushing you in the wrong direction". I played this for the school talent show. "hey there weird kid in you high top shoes, sittin' in the back of the class; I was just like you" was my senior quote. This is the song that defines my life. This is me. This is my life in five minutes and twenty-four seconds. This was the first time I was understood by own parents. and that's damn rock and roll.

[@tj4pirates]

Wow... God bless you.

[@ldleach3492]

Well SAID .... I'm kinda like you. I live my life through music... I'll tell everybody double things. I'm gonna miss in life. The dirt my face. I don't give a f*** My kids hot women bourbon & music... Is the fuel I need to make me live

[@tgippp]

Hell yeah my friend. I’m a “country boy” born and raised in the ATL. I’ll be 33 this month but I’ve been self taught on my guitar since I was 12 😆 Mr Misunderstood is usually the coolest, most soft spoken, kind person once you get to know them. If you can make music, then you can have a voice to help others! Keep playing! You have a powerful story to share! It definitely helped this “old man” today 🤜🏻🤛🏻

[@MichaelDavis-dy9ly]

That's damn country music.

[@shanekilleen9022]

[@iamgraysonrogers]

Definitely is! Great song!

[@sirbilliamxiv5531]

+Michael Davis that's damn rock and roll

[@bopendleton4920]

Our youngest so was placed in our arms when he was 5 days old. He was born addicted to meth and heroin and had Asthma and RSV. He struggled so hard to overcome his addictions and to breathe. Night time was much harder on him. So many nights I walked the floor with him holding him and praying for a miracle. The only time at night that he didn't cry was if this song was on a constant repeat. It soothed him. Almost like it gave him hope. As a full grown man this song makes me cry knowing that it soothed my son helped him find peace and allowed him to rest. He is now an amazing 5 year old and this is still his favorite song.

[@vernaandrus7314]

♥️🥰🙏✨✌️🥰🎶🎶🎶♥️

[@evanceman4954]

I nearly cried when I first heard this song and the line "think Jeff Tweedy is one bad mother" that fact that Eric Church got everyone of my favorite singers in that whole verse. Go Wilco and Eric Church!!

[@A2kingsfull]

I've been playing for 25 years plus and can tell you his timing is impeccable!

[@Tom-ym7bm]

Interesting how he uses the tempo in this tune to support the vibe he is bringing! Mr Misunderstood

[@hillbillyhippieweirdo4285]

I love all of your songs, however, Carolina is the one that hits closest to home for me.

[@Moonless6491]

Eric Church is the best country/rock artist alive right now. I really like how he doesn't wear a cliche cowboy hat like every other fake "country artist". don't know why people have to dislike a meaningful song with thoughtful lyrics. at least he isn't singing about boobs, clubs, and living like its the last night of your life. Hey look! real instruments.

[@adamg1180]

bud thedog I agree 100%, I enjoy his music, it’s just so real..

[@why_fight]

My grandfather died at 60 a little after midnight. . .I was 19 and in my senior year of HS. Months after he passed, my grandmother brought up this song and it made me cry bad. Me and my grandfather never quite understood eachother. After listening to this though I know this was his way of saying its ok we werent super close, and now I feel spiritually close to him like the father I never had.

[@allensmart470]

How a Caldwell County boy ever found Jeff Tweety or Ray Wiley Hubbard in high school--God Knows?! But Thank You.

[@toddbacon6738]

What a beautiful song. People listen to things but don't hear it, and i am one of them. I have heard this song but yeald and mumbled when i sang it but never listened.

To Mr. Understood, and to ALL of the Understood individuals that can relate to this song. I received this copy of this song from a friend, a dear friend from a long time ago. This song seems to sum up the way I feel, and the way I have always felt. I'm very grateful that Eric has put this feeling into a song to express the way he feels. Because God knows that I have felt this way a long time and did not know how to express it. There are many more feelings and emotions that can erupt just as if they were just like a volcano. And maybe this is a good start for me to look at more of my feelings and emotions to try to bring them out and work through them. And I would like to express my gratitude to my friend Jeff, for sending this to me. I love you my brother and now we might be able to start to understand and maybe, just maybe, start to be "THE UNDERSTOOD"! Thanks Again for your understanding! 🙂😉😊

love this song. truly my favorite singer in todays country. todays country is all garbage. u don't mix pop with country. just don't work. glad he hasn't sold out like everyone else. him and Chris Stapleton both. love Jason Alden but here lately he's been putting out crap. absolutely hate luke Bryan and FGL guys like them is what's taken country music to hell. chris janson too. keep up the good work church and please don't sell out like everyone else. be a leader not a follower.

[@nicolekachermeyer9700]

+Cory Baker your are writ luke bryan and fgl guys is what is butting country music to hell and back

[@corybaker7814]

Glad someone agrees. I put something about it on Facebook a month ago and this girl who was obviously obsessed with luke Bryan got all upset about it and pissed. She went off for two days about it. Never met this girl in my life. She was calling me f-ing dumb and a special kinda stupid all over my opinion. These other women got fed up with it and went off on her for me. Then she went off on all of us so finally I got tired of it, I kept my cool long enough and I'm not the type to blow up all over social media but this girl went to far especially when she started trash talking my babies. So I chewed her ass out. Then she called me a red neck and told me to listen to my outlaw country. Long story short. She got all butt hurt over me speaking my mind and expressing my opinion about Luke Bryan. But thanks again... glad someone else understands my point of view without getting all upset and offended.
