I can't listen to this song anymore, it rips me apart. I was a high school teacher in a poor area of Oregon. This is the story of so many of my students. When she says she was able to save a little bit of money working at a convenience store, I break down. That's all many of my students could aspire to do, just work at a convenience store. They came from horribly dysfunctional families, so poor that $200-$300 was a fortune. All they wanted to do was be someone, be someone, just hoped for better. Oh, man, and there hundreds of them in this town..

Wow, what a great comment. Nice to meet you @ripperduck, my partner is a teacher too. You are all appreciated more than you'll ever know!!

[@vincentsalvador6295]

This is one of the greatest modern songs ever written. It's cool you dig this. I remember growing up in the 90s hearing this...hearing it as an adult is a completely different experience. Nice reaction! 😀

[@user-dw2bz2mp1j]

Thank you! I don’t do this kind of thing , like respond to a video but when I watched Tracy perform fast car a few weeks ago at the Grammys My heart melted! I watched several videos of people trying to understand this song Most people don’t get it The lyrics are more important than need anything else in the song And I appreciate that you listened to the story

[@Gregory11811]

A song like this is worth a thousand and one “Call Me, Maybe”s, “Love Story”s, or “Red Solo Cup”s.

[@indigoeyes100]

One of the greatest songs ever written. They don't make them like this anymore

[@alanshepherd4304]

Heard this on the radio going in to work, dashed out and bought in my lunch break. Stunning album, not a weak song on it!!😁😁🇬🇧

[@BigBeatReactions]

I will have to check out some more of the album.. any recommendations? Thanks for the comment Alan!

[@alanshepherd4304]

@@BigBeatReactions any off that album is worth listening to!! One of those rare albums that is stunning from start to finish!!😁😁🇬🇧

[@christinemoore4478]

Just came across this reaction. Man you did an amazing review

[@mikeklahr1484]

Judging by all the Boston gear behind you , you might like to know that she was a busker, while I think she was going to Tufts. She played in downtown crossing and on the MTA in the 80’s. I saw her while I worked there in 85 86 I think ..

[@vanessaramstack]

thank you for reacting - i enjoyed listening along with you. also appreciated how you took time to reflect on the lyrics as well. biggest hugs from chicago ~

[@breannaburney4178]

Just found your channel and what a perfect 1st song!

[@briandunn6157]

[@wslingsby9411]

wow! what a beautiful song!

[@Dee-vc5jv]

Great song with deep meaning.

[@jonathanwhite5640]

Tracy an UNDERATED MUSICIAN. Period show her some Love. ❤❤❤❤🎉😊

[@duncansonoryan]

Criminally underrated.

[@catherinebass6234]

She is not underrated by anyone who knows her music. She's highly acclaimed and respected. She stopped performing for many years, so lots of people are unfamiliar with her work. Since "Fast Car" was re-introduced by Luke Combs, the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, almost reverent. See Wikipedia, Career and Nominations/Awards.

[@ellerootz6702]

Tha cut!

[@SwampCityRadio1974]

I appreciate your thoughtful reaction to a song that means so much to so many.

[@sergioafonsotsemba2996]

Gostei muito

[@terminallumbago6465]

Here are some suggestions for songs “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” by Gordon Lightfoot “Cat’s in the Cradle” by Harry Chapin “The Living Years” by Mike + The Mechanics “Monsters” by James Blunt “No Bravery” by James Blunt

[@BigBeatReactions]

Watch out for some of these soon!

[@bobbyb2725]

Beliebit or not the Justin Bieber does a nice cover of this song

[@bocciasandro5821]

subtitle please for the next videos you are good ... greetings

[@mikeklahr1484]

Judging by all the Boston stuff behind you, you might like to know she used to be a busker in downtown crossing and the MTA, in the 80’s. I saw her when I was working in Boston in like 85 or 86

[@BigBeatReactions]

Nice

[@vegasbaby3669]

Our music from the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s was just so much better. I feel sorry for you young people who didn’t get to grow up to this wonderful music. Our generation wasn’t perfect, but our music was happy, had passion, and LOVE. That in turn made people happier, made people wanna love each other more. Was it perfect? No it wasn’t, but back then we loved each other more, because the music that flooded the our airwaves made us want to.

[@BigBeatReactions]

Great music is not dead!! I agree, music was full of love back then.. welcome to the channel and thanks for being a part of the Big Beat Family!

[@loreleivalentine1233]

I hate when people say this shit. I'm 41 and there are brilliant songs put out every day if you bothered to listen. Fuck off with the back in my day shit.

[@davec4700]

Best song ever. Luckily, you found it. It is her "lesbian anthem." It's about mom left, because of her sexuality and her trying to escape from having to take care of drunken Pop. ALL of us have lived parts of this story. I learned to play it on acoustic, but it starts the water-works immediately...

[@impishsongster333]

The song was written about people she saw growing up around her. Its NOT about HER family. In the song, her mom left because her dad was a drunk, and her mom didn't want that life. "She wanted more from life than he could give". There's nothing about lesbians in the song. Wtf? There was no reason to bring it up. Get over it. Do better.

[@stanhin]

Dude, quit stopping in the middle of verses. Pause between verses.
