Ian Noe // Irene

[@danielmccoy9204]

The age of the songwriter seems to be coming back. We have Ian Noe, Andrew Hibbard, Colter Wall, Arlo McKinley, and Tyler Childers. They all share that strange aura about them like they are all 50% genius and 50% insane and are just magnetic. Support brilliant minds people!

[@samueljlarson]

It's an art and most people can't hack it

[@Vinylsearch]

The touch has been past. :)

[@emiliobell3246]

Don't forget about good ol zach bryan dude fits right into that list

[@vandango901]

The list continues to grow.

[@deannanewland4885]

Thank you Daniel McCoy, I’m going to check out three of those singers you mentioned…. I really like Ian Noes and Tyler Childers. Singers/song writers like Ian and Tyler don’t come around very often. So, when I catch wind of a name of a “possibly” great singer…. We’ll, I check’em out! I discovered Ian Noes on accident and my husband introduced me to Mr. Childers…Thanks again Daniel McCoy 🙂

[@gagebanning5056]

Just when I was losing hope in country music there’s a sudden rise in good ol boys like this.

[@tonyclouse4159]

You are one in a 100 billion thank you for the songs and music, don't let the buzzards hook you with a flippin contract.

[@faded_ink3545]

0:15 “Your favourite child is here.” This line always feels sarcastic; anyone who’s visited home in their 20-30s and felt like a failure in front of their parents knows what I’m getting at. Like you didn’t live up to their expectations. Really hits home.

[@lonniemanuel9570]

It is sarcastic.

[@TheWaltm]

Irene sat down for supper Pourin' Visine into her eyes To see her tremblin' hand Was to understand Some things you can't disguise Pa said, "Not for nothing "But you don't seem to be quite well" Irene reared back With a smile and cracked "How could you ever tell?" What a genius lyric! What else can you say? He elucidates the human condition almost too damn well...

[@astuart5732]

My mom never drank. But she was an addict for most of her life. When I picture Irene, I see my mom.

[@hystericheretic7678]

I bet your mom was awesome. Just bad opportunities

[@greasychoppers4708]

Ol Irene has quickly became my favorite gal.

[@edthesecond]

It passes the true test for great country music. It makes me want to yell and throw my beer bottle.

[@DirckLeidecker]

We all know an Irene. Someone you love so much but can't fix the pain

[@dalegillingham100]

Irene pulled in at midnight Lit on the smoke and beer Proudly crawled To the porch and called "Your favorite child is here" And Ma asked, "Where're ya livin'? And are ya livin' right within?" She said with fire Like a gospel choir A saint immune to sin [Chorus] Old Irene Like a ravin' bomb She's cuttin' every rug And killin' every jug She comes upon Old Irene Never lacking charm Said, "I was feeling good And in the neighborhood I mean no harm" [Verse 2] Irene sat down for supper Pourin' Visine into her eyes To see her tremblin' hand Was to understand Some things you can't disguise Pa said, "Not for nothing "But you don't seem to be quite well" Irene reared back With a smile and cracked "How could you ever tell?" [Chorus] Old Irene Like a ravin' bomb She's cuttin' every rug And killin' every jug She comes upon Old Irene Don't believe in pain She said "To live this life You need a half a pint To keep you sane" [Verse 3] Irene said, "But I ain't happy Sometimes I wake up feeling dead And if the sun should shine I close my blinds Pretend there's rain instead I took down all my mirrors I gave away all my rope and guns Drown the darkest time With some rot gut wine And my faithful M.A.S.H. reruns" [Chorus] Old Irene Like a ravin' bomb She's cuttin' every rug And killin' every jug She comes upon Old Irene Said, "It's sad but true In spite of all it brings It's the only thing That gets me through" [Outro] Know it gets me through Well, it gets me through Know it hits me good Know it gets me through

[@rustysteel8714]

Thanks Dale.

[@mikeramsey5849]

First time I've heard him was today . AWESOME !! Reminds of John Prine. GREAT SONG !!

[@mikkelkikkel6467]

It's crazy. Love to here him do Donald and Lydia

[@MrBcstranger]

I hear a heavy Prine influence as well.

[@himynameismattomlin]

Same here, friend. I first listened to Ian's music today and I'm thoroughly hooked. And you're right. He's a lot like John Prine.

[@roserecs2854]

There’s only one John Prine.

[@rolfbrunner3016]

Same to me,but 2 years later. Yes great song-and songs.

[@cur8239]

I give Outlaw Country credit for turning me on to new artists like Ian Noe and Jade Jackson. Yes, a new age of songwriters is starting to emerge. Great lyrics and a song that makes you think.

[@ajs96350]

Same here, I heard this on the way home today. I replayed it and cranked it up.

[@LR-mn9mm]

I also love outlaw country, but try streaming wncw.org The best radio station in the U.S.

[@cur8239]

@@LR-mn9mm I am going to try that station, Outlaw country has gotten to be a joke. bruce springsteen on outlaw country? They have gooten so bad if I like this station, dropping my subscription. Thanks

[@lilit8934]

Beautifully sung. And yeah, I was Irene

[@vincarcin]

"I mean no harm". A masterpiece in story telling

[@tylermcswain9760]

What an incredible song!

[@cw6621]

This song is as if it was written about my mother. It's amazing to me, really. Word for word.

[@redskull2382]

It's amazing that this relates to so many of our moms. Thank satan for feminism

[@dirtydoglips]

My sister for me.

[@ts-wo6pp]

​@@redskull2382you are retarded in a big way

[@robertgibbs8953]

He is amazing. Love this song. Great story teller

[@fritzbarnett308]

where in the heck have i been, he's good

[@kaseysmith9715]

Listening to from HARRISON COUNTY MISSISSIPPI

[@mzuniga_74]

CRIMINAL this doesn’t have more views. Amazing story telling and composition. This song has quickly become a favorite of mine that I can’t seem to never not enjoy listening to it. Superb work!

[@Jpyoutube9913]

Great song.

[@hastyhillfarmand4x480]

My great grandmas name was Irene, she was hillbilly af, her daugher, Virginia, birthed my mother Tammy, who gave life to me and by now in time, life is more of a curse than a gift

[@ireneclaire7947]

My name is Irene. It’s crazy when I see like souvenirs or tags with my name on it. Only bc it’s so unique. But I love it 🥰

[@faded_ink3545]

That’s the way of it, more a curse than a gift. As the great quote goes: “you can’t stop what’s coming, it ain’t all waitin on you… that’s vanity”.

[@organjoe]

I heard this on the radio this morning. Looked it up here and think it's Great!!

[@jeffhunter69]

95.9?

[@kaseysmith9715]

VERY WELL LIKED by the people Ive introduced to his music

[@kaseysmith9715]

This is what I Love to hear and its True to the bone and for all im thinking is the kid has had to live through some of things that he is singing about for him to tell it as Good as he does he is Super Natural Talented and I wish him the BEST WITH HIS CARREER dont think he will have any problems being Successful in life with his music

[@warrenshortess3078]

First time I’ve heard him, Wow! Prine and Guy would be proud. Keep it going kid.

[@BobM195]

Good Tune..Ian. "Ol Irene" she gets me through.👍🐾🎸✝️☮️🇺🇸

[@macdreezy]

Irene (Ravin’ Bomb) Irene pulled in at midnight Lit on smoke and beer, Proudly crawled To the porch and called, “Your favorite child is here.” Ma asked, “Where ya’ livin, And are ya’ livin’ right within?” She said, “With FIre Like a gospel choir A saint immune to sin.” Old Irene, Like a ravin’ bomb, She’s cutting every rug And killing every jug That she comes upon. Old Irene, Never lacking charm, Said, “I was feeling good And in the neighborhood, I mean no harm.” Irene sat down for supper Pouring Visine into her eyes, To see her trembling hand Was to understand Some things you can’t disguise. Pa said, “Not for nothing, But you don’t seem to be quite well.” Irene reared back, With a smile and cracked, “How could you ever tell?” Old Irene, Like a ravin’ bomb, She’s cutting every rug And killing every jug That she comes upon. Old Irene, Don’t believe in pain, She said, “To live this life You need a half a pint To keep you sane.” Irene said, “But I ain’t happy, Sometimes I wake up feeling dead. And if the sun should shine I close my blinds, Pretend theres rain instead. I took down all my mirrors. I gave away all my rope and guns. Drown the darkest time With some rock gut wine And my faithful M.A.S.H reruns. Old Irene, Like a ravin’ bomb, She’s cutting every rug And killing every jug That she comes upon. Old Irene, Said, “It’s sad but true, In spite of all it brings It’s the only thing That gets me through."

Connie Collingsworth rot*gut wine

One of my favorites. He's got other songs that are just as great, all of them paint a vivid picture.

Psalm 118:24

[@christiand1247]

It might be just me, but I think I hear a Mickey Newbury influence on this song. Not a damn thing wrong with that...🥃

[@MidniteBaloney]

your saint immune from sin.

[@MaruchanLunchDate]

This is crazy.,.this is Krisstoferson, before us. Lol, its Prine,its Dylan, and some oĺd school austin writer cool shit. Feels dirty and real like VanZandt...makes me feel like nobody and everbody loves me all at now. God looks after "Drunks And Fools." Somedays, i have risen from the "dead", as both. Sorry, for the faint of heart, i laughed, with the rest of yall.

[@NeilAngus-we2gh]
