Jason Boland sings "Hard Times are Relative" live at MusicFest 2016

[@swampchickenfxr779]

I love how he paints such a perfect picture with his lyrics. Feels like the old story tellers of country music

[@terrysgamingzone1390]

Amen! This guy is real country music.

[@jonathanp50p85]

This is what singer songwriter looks like. Boland is the undisputed champion.

[@samadams5907]

How does this only have 150k views.... this is the peak of storytelling.

[@cliffhooper3558]

One of the best country folk voices I've heard to this day..

[@berndwenserski694]

The crown of storytelling...a JB masterpiece

[@ryant2576]

Stoneys reactions in the background ! This song makes grown men cry. Maybe one of the best story song ever written. Amazing.

[@mattydaddy7743]

MY GOD THATS SONGWRITING AT ITS BEST PEOPLE!!!! JASON YOUR ONE OF MY HEROS AND HAVE BEEN FOR YEARS! TRUE INSPIRATION FOR A SINGER AND SONGWRITER LIKE ME!

[@Tex1947]

Been a Jason Boland fan since 99 when Pearl Snaps came out him and the Stragglers just keep getting better every year.

[@n1c0l3fromcanada]

Amazing song, amazing voice. This is country music at its best

[@charliejenkerson0388]

Jason is an absolute genius to come up with lyrics like that copying the song down trying to play it. Thanks again Jason for giving us something worth listening to . Because there's very little of it

[@jeremychavez497]

In my opinion I think boland is definitely undoubtedly one of the best Texas country artist. Saw him once would like to change that see him some more. Great tunes

[@terrycooper2837]

[@stevebrennan7326]

Amazing voice and songwriter

[@tedbartley1358]

Someone asked me once what was my favorite song. At first I laughed and said that was impossible to answer. Then after thinking a minute I answered it would be a tie. Jason Boland's Comal County Blues,and REK's Feeling Good Again.

[@deanwilson2607]

First time I heard him was the Live at Billy Bob's CD. I was instantly hooked. Had a chance to see him and Shooter Jennings in NYC 2016. Actually had tickets. A slight problem with local law enforcement changed my plans.

[@mattdaily1519]

Wonderful story. Brought tears to my eyes. Highly anticipating the new album. The music from Mr. Boland just keeps getting better and better.

[@keenankelley187]

Yes it brings tears to my eyes.. Sure glad Jason's on the right path in life like I've said before he's finally satisfied in his life and feels the best in years just my two cents. God Bless Jason..

[@Ionestarpatriot]

God bless this storyteller.

[@donniehunter309]

Our generations Kristoferson. Thinking man's music that all can enjoy. Great stuff, been a fan since Pearl Snaps.

[@RobertAtBuffalo]

The song means to me to be thankful for what you have. Too many live here and are ungrateful for all the gifts we have in our life.

[@shaneb.3982]

One of my favorite Texas country singers. I would say him, Mark David Manders, Chris Wall, Dale Watson, and Charlie Robinson.

[@TheHoncho254]

Still here 2024 . Btw this song is so good nobody realizes who is in the background of this video

[@DonnaGiambalvo]

Lyrics beautiful and the story so meaningful.❤

[@gingermalone701]

[@billypayne6674]

What's so special about this guy rascal flatts are better and don't look like they live in a trash can

[@billypayne1136]

Billy Payne rascal flats actually can sing this guy seems like he has a drug problem

[@billypayne6674]

2redneck ok what about bolands meth problem

[@mattdaily1519]

Billy Payne you must drink heavily fluoridated water. This will leave you in a state of mind incapable of comprehending the few intelligent artist left in our society. You are a victim and I will pray for your recovery.

[@billypayne6674]

Matt Daily I love jason boland he rocks but Stoney larue is better

[@czforester]

Matt Daily My water is pretty deliciously fluorinated and I still think this is better than Rascal Flatts... Like by a lot. I'm a Yankee though. What do I know?

[@md-uf8kq]

F-king genius Mr. Boland!
