First Time Hearing Oliver Anthony - "Rich Men North of Richmond"

[@MelloReacts]

The most touching song I've heard in a while!❤

[@kimberlyallen4591]

Anyone that has a soul, cried... It hits home for us all... I did lose everything a few years ago at almost 50... How can one hospital bill be over $8 million dollars... There was more than one... We will never give up but will continue to stand up to overcome... The government can kizz my butt... Much love to you and everyone inside this rat race...

I'm 52 and I work 365 days a year. Never been on a vacation. All I own is my $700 car. I don't mind. I have food and a roof over my head and I like my job. I never had a chance to have a family of my own but I accept that too. It is what it is. What really bothers me is when I need gas or reparations for my car. A couple of years ago I had to go to the dentist. The bill was $4000 and I had to ask my dad for the money and he ain't got much either. I've never felt so ashamed in my life. I wish I could keep a bit more of the money I earn so I could pay my dentist myself. And I love watching you laugh. This video was tough.

[@richardredhawk6438]

I actually spent several hours watching dozens of different influence rs reviewing this song. Crossed political lines, ideological lines, all races too. I've never seen so many people tear up over a song before.

I’m a 55 year old black USMC veteran and high voltage lineman of 28 years, this song has changed my whole outlook. I believe it is God inspired. It changes so much, it changed how I think of my white co-workers. I always thought they had it easier. Now I know we’re in the same boat. This young man is not singing to white people , he’s talking to us all. “ for people like me, and people like you.” That is Gods love.

BS Are you people insane! This song is totally right-wing propaganda. The song is complaining about you as a woman! 5 ft 3. Average height of a woman. 300 pounds, what every white supremacist thinks of poor minorities. Poor, fat, lazy and too stupid to know what's good for them. I work all day long busting my ass and can't get ahead because the government is taking my money in the form of taxes to give to those lazy, fat, moronic minorities and women living off the tit of my effort. This is right-wing propaganda.

Two weeks ago Oliver (Chris) was unknown in the woods, then this, 24M views in 10 days. The lyrics touch us because we know it's truth. The guitar touches us because it harkens back to a simpler time. His voice touches us because it has passion and a cry in his voice that we feel in our hearts. He is touching the heart of the world wherever an incompetent corrupt conflict creating government and greedy corporations abuse and steal from the people. That's everywhere today. Lord, it's a damn shame.

[@JensRandolff]

Thank you for your genuine, heartfelt reaction. Christopher "Oliver" Anthony and his three dogs live in Farmville, VA, on a 90 acres plot of land that he plans to turn into a small farm to raise livestock. Oliver’s goal is to give hope to and lift up working-class folks who are struggling daily to make ends meet in this upside-down world. This young man has character and integrity and just turned down an $8M record deal, as major labels are vying to sign him. He has a collection of songs on his YT channel (@oliveranthonymusic) and more on various streaming platforms, but “Rich Men North of Richmond” is the song that put him on the map literally overnight around the world. The fact that this song got over 19M views since its debut a little over a week ago tells you that the message transcends age, color/race/ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, and even nationality, and resonates with ordinary working folk the world over. This should be mandatory listening for everyone in government, whether elected, appointed, or just employed. Even though "the rich men north of Richmond" is a reference to politicians and “power players” in Washington DC., and probably to the financiers on Wall Street, it equally applies to politicians and the “elites” anywhere. The fact that the usual suspects are already calling this the new “right-wing anthem,” means the song has struck a nerve and is right on target. "I wish politicians would look out for miners and not just minors on an island (Eppstein Island) somewhere" is certainly an indictment of the elites who seem to get away with their crimes too often. Not wanting your taxes, which fund food stamps to be used by recipients to buy junk food (fudge rounds) does not imply that one is against food assistance programs for the truly needy; it just means that benefits should be restricted to essential, and relatively nutritious food items. I hope this anthem will wake up more people and get us ordinary folks to unite and take a stand before it's too late. May God bless you and yours.

[@gwenthompson3247]

Well said...we the People should stand together. This song resonates all over the world.

[@ellencox8415]

It's hilarious how many people are like, "HE LIVES ON 90 ACRES! HE'S THE ELITE!" 🤦🏻‍♀️ It's 90 acres of unlivable land that he paid something like $90,000 for and put a used mobile home on... and he owes on everything. It just amazes me how clueless people are about the Appalachian people. They're also all not "Trump Supporters", but even if they were, I don't want anyone being this depressed about our country and their own future. But he's right, this IS how the working poor feel right now and they're not wrong. Our politicians care more about foreign lands than the people they are supposed to represent.

[@pneeb419]

​@ellencox8415 one additional item about how he lives....the trailer he lives in costs him $750 off Craig's list and the roof leaks so he has a tarp over it to keep the rain out. I hope with the money he makes off this song, he can atleast upgrade his trailer to one with a roof that doesn't leak.

He makes you bleed don't he? We all needed this. We been holding in a lot so that's way we feel this all over the world.

Been working overtime in a dangerous steel mill and similar jobs for 30 years and still have a hard time paying bills. Taxes eat me to death. This song represents people like me.

[@robinhatcher8021]

@@wesurvivedcastledunboy9571 I know! It's so wonderful that he is doing that. He said friends knew him as Oliver and family called him Chris but either name was fine with him.

[@BenT_bbx]

[@paulhitchen874]

I'm from the UK and this has touched my heart and yep I cry too as a 42yr old builder, I find this song to speak to my soul, it's a good way to see God. it's time to stand up as a people as a human race ❤ sending my love from Salford England

[@ElainetheGARugrat8815]

The only word I had listening to this is WOW! This hits really deep and we all feel it deep within. I cried too, Mello. 🤯🤯

[@umabell3964]

First time watching you. I have watched many Reaction Videos on this particular song and I would like to say that you were absolutely brilliant. There really are MORE people who think like you than you know. Around the World. We are the Silent majority. Thank You. Just subscribed from London, England. Keep on doing what you’re doing. Chin Up, Shoulders Back, Deep Breath and Move Forward.

[@gregandblakeharris6691]

Same!

Oliver tells us about the forgotten men and women.

[@Seeker386]

It's got that raw, old timey country feel to it.

[@scottjames1401]

Sister, you are a treasure. Thank you for being awake and standing on principle. This is not any old shooting star artist. This song is a generational event, an event horizon. It isn't just America and blue collar workers. This is global and involves anyone who is awake. The truth has been spoken by a few artists who have faithfully stood on principle, and now this. Lord have mercy, is this not a certain moment defined thus "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision."

[@sheeitcuhhh6301]

Bless your heart stand your ground and we will all stand behind you and with you alongside you and even in front of you. We are with you and here for you 100%

It is true if you work overtime taxes take out most of our pay. It is a damn shame. Prayers to you my friend!

[@jcrank1236]

I well up every time he says ‘all this damn country does is keep on kickin them down’ and I’ve probably heard it 500 times

[@ashleyhayden7054]

So glad you're back girl!! ❤️🤍💙

[@MelloReacts]

Thank you❤

[@kaydog2008]

I'm a Gen X U.S. Navy vet I feel and see everything he's singing about for the whole world not just here. The BIG 7 industries control the world not our governments or us. You should hear his cover song from Jemey Johnson ( In Color ) another from the heart. It's Appalachain Mountain folk not country music. Oliver Anothony aka Chris Anthony's from small town Farmville VA playing a resonator guitar. Oliver was his grandfathers name a tridute to him for his channel name Oliver Anthony Music.

[@jeremyrhoades2535]

They wanted to buy the song so that they could keep it off the airwaves

[@GenuineAMERICAN333]

Refinery operator over here. I got this job thinking it’d be my last cause it was high paying. Come to find out I was happier making 40k a yr tossing trash all day. Now making 150-160k a yr it shoots out the back door in taxes. We are lucky to see 50% of paychecks. I’m sick of division, then pinning one side vs another. We must see we are all in the same boat and it’s these elite people living it up while we grind for nothing. People of America we need to come together this is the greatest country to ever exist and if we stay divided they win and our country will be lost to the next mega power. We can’t be starring in our rear view when our future is in front of us, yes we can not forget the past but what’s done is done and all we can do is move forward

[@middleriverdwd]

Same reaction I had the first time I heard this. I haven't wept with so many total strangers in my life.

[@willard526]

Yes Oliver is his grandfather's name. His name is Chris his grandfather had a great influence in his life. GOD BLESS THIS MAN

[@terrycooper4285]

God bless you lady love you and everything you do

[@boardmeetingsofficial]

You can hear the pain and struggle in his voice come out and it just gets to me hard. I don’t cry ever and boy am I glad the first time I heard this I was by myself bc the tear’s started to well up and I couldn’t help it. Never had that happen before and I’ve never heard a song like this ever.

[@MistyMorningMangoes]

I hear ya. I lost my job for refusing the mandated vaccine. But I THANK THE LORD I listened to my heart instead of people in power!

[@leeevans7504]

The most Authentic reaction I've seen yet. God bless you and Anthony Oliver. This song is a world anthem. From patriotic Englishman.❤

[@kimfreeman852]

I think with that voice he could have been singing the ingredients to fudge rounds and I would have still cried. I bawled like a baby. Liked and subscribed!

[@troyhodgkins2286]

Baby girl he is speaking for all of us. United we stand, divided we fall!! Who's keeping us divided???
