My dad was a WWII VET..field medic..he only had like a 2nd grade education but his mom was a Midwife and back during those times a Midwife did more than just deliver babies..she took care of all sorts of illnesses and wounds..and she took care of people in several counties here in Kentucky not just in the county they were from and so my dad learned a lot from her because he had to quit school because his dad passed away when he was very young and he was the oldest Male in the household so that meant he had to basically step up and be the man of the house at the age of 8 or 9 and help bring in income to support their family..I have a great love and respect for my dad..and I miss him and mom

[@judithmaloney3346]

First time hearing this song... I LOVE IT♥️♥️ will be listening again and again..Thank you.

[@brandymccoyslone700]

Love this song 💞💞takes me back ☺☺

[@TheNo1BandDad]

Man do I ever love this song.

[@Trevor_Magers]

Hey brother, I'm a white guy about your same age and I never had a father in my home either. I know exaclty what you are talking about and it is a true epidemic in America. I know the anger and pain it causes not having a dad to turn to. You turned into an amazing guy, keep it up

[@Modern-Renaissance-Man]

Thank you and congrats to you as well for making it

[@greggreg385]

Any man who has experienced loss, adversity, love, and loss understands this song about nuance and raw emotion

[@brisk4u]

You are making those memories for your kids. I have never watched your video before, but what I have read from comments on this song from various videos, is that we all have different things in our past that were tough for various reasons and we can't change that. However, we can all be better people today and not live in fear, not let the powers that be tell us how to live. We are so influenced from TV and news, & politicians that have no clue. We should all start just living and loving and make new good memories of how we took the evil back out of society and started to love our neighbor. I think that is what we all earn for.

[@MRM-Red]

Always think of my Grandpa Reid when i hear this He was a child in depression and was in WW2. Recieved Purple Heart. Was shot in the head BUT LIVED. He taught me how to grow a garden..helped me learn how drive a tractor..lol He passed away 1/15/16..on my birthday. ❤

[@AngieandBoomer]

I met the man who wrote this song and Lee Miller!! He’s amazing and so is this song!! Love Jamey Johnson!!

[@arleneelvisgirl4451]

Praise God for His guidance and love that formed you into the man you have become!

You are a blessed human being. More power to your elbow my friend greetings from Bonnie Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@21April853BC]

I’m glad you reviewed this song.

[@osullivan617]

Appreciate your honesty and enjoy your take on these videos.

[@darrickjackson2047]

Jamie Was a Marine in the Iraq war. Bless him bless you and your family

[@fishordie1992]

One of my faves! I love you Brother and I mean that. We ARE Brothers in Christ. You are a good man and I love your channel. Keep the positivity coming!

[@zzeus43]

One of the greatest country songs ever!

[@carlprince2866]

one of the best pieces of writing in the last 30 years.

[@kimjarrettadkins70]

Keep doing what you are doing. You are awesome. Such a beautiful soul and heart.

[@jasonbyassee3158]

I completely understand what you are saying. I knew my grandfather was in WW2, but never heard any details growing up. Later on taking freshman English I had the option to write a paper about him and WW2. By then, he was more comfortable talking about it. My professor absolutely loved the story about the island of Attu. My grandfather was still careful with details, and I did not ask him to expand on anything that I thought would upset him. These stories are so important to me when thinking back on his life.

[@amazed66]

I think the message behind the song is because the photographs were old that they were in black and white but saying "you should've seen it in colour" was a way of saying you had to be there to really appreciate what things were like then, as colour actually existed there in the real world, if maybe not in the photographs of the time.

[@sheilacarroll7143]

God bless you! 😊🌹

[@Pat1500-g5i]

My grandfather landed on Normandy Beach (WW2) when the water was still red with blood. He shared so many stories and i wish that i could remember them all. I feel like this song was written for him. Cotton farming in The Great Depression, World War 2, and getting married in June. I played this song for him a few years ago before he passed away and he loved it. Beautiful song.

[@markgriffin9617]

So sorry you missed out on this kind of experience. i was able to talk to my grandfather about this era. Amazing that this story all happened to the main character before he turned 25. They REALLY were kids trying to save each other.

[@WNC_BUCKEYE]

Had a grandad in world War II and Korea in the Navy I loved listing to there storys.

[@chancehernandez9777]

Right on mi hermano. Agree wit u 100% keep on dawg

[@Dsmwarrior1996]

Jamey Johnson "the dollar" is a great song, and as a line goes from one of my favorite songs is "a calm sea don't make a skilled sailor, so I thank the Lord for the stormy weather" deep meaning in that

[@Cts_99]

Listen to it!

[@stevenjenks9336]

Hello my friend... I live in Knoxville TN.... I am so glad that I found your reaction videos and am more thankful that you are A Man of God and your witness for our Lord.... I'm pretty much illiterate on here but know I am praying for you and your family and I love your videos... God's Blessings on you and your family 🙏❤️

[@dannynix6816]

My grandfather was a soldier in WW1 and I got most of my values from him.

[@thefreeman8791]

I never thought about the fact that when people grow up without their parents or without their grandparents it’s like you don’t truly ever know who you are. My family was never wealthy but we at least knew our family’s history. I mean I can ask my grandma about her older brother that was at D-Day as one of Rudder’s Rangers. We even still have stories about an ancestor of mine that was a soldier in George Washington’s Army that fought at the Battle of Yorktown. But if I didn’t know who my parents were then I wouldn’t have any of that. It truly is tragic. I’m glad to see that you have risen above the challenges and don’t use it as a crutch in life. God bless.

[@vallidavis6914]

It's a sad thing to not grow up with your rightful knowledge of your family. I was lucky enough to live next to my great grandmother and loved her stories. She was born on 1886, so a lot was passed on that she lived through.

[@colegautreau4760]

Ty, you missed out on a lot without grandparents and a single parent home. I'm just glad you are being a father to your own kids in order to break that cycle. Keep on keeping on!!!!

[@elethaduffy976]

beautiful and candid review. I'm sorry you didn't know your closest family. Thank you for giving me a new perspective on a song I've loved for a good while.

[@criticwatcher]

Jamey Johnson is so underrated in country music that he doesn't get the credit that he does as a singer.

[@timd9784]

Keep up the great work, spreading the good music

[@christinewortman425]

Wow.... i was adopted... I have no connection to my past. Unfortunately i wasn't adopted into the ideal family. But my grandama (adopted) told me all her stories. We'd sit at the dining table and she would tell me how when she was a child her brothers job was to light the streetlamps. And how my grandpa helped raise the antenna on the empire state building and worked on building the brooklyn bridge. How he would always sho2 up with a stranger for dinner, and his nickname for her was "pots and pans". She was my connection to "family" She wasn't my blood but she was my heart...this song brings me back

[@albrolake7787]

Yup...all the vets are on file...you can look it all up and see that they were heros too..enjoy..

[@JohnDoe-fv3vs]

Kinda song to send your throat dry and make you wish you could shake your grandpa's hand and tell him about your life now.... mine's been gone over decade. When he was alive he taught me alot told me alot of great life stories.

[@joshmccloud6789]

God bless you

[@hemjl4]

My take is the song is telling you that you had to be there----a picture alone can't convey the situation. That 'you shoulda seen it in color " is his way of saying you can't understand the fear of hard times, the worry of being shot down, taking on the responsibility of starting a married life the full range of emotions just from a snapshot.

[@tonycopeland881]

I cant see how anybody wouldn't like you bro..I love your character and what you stand for, and that my friend is TRUTH..God bless you and your family and i wish good things your way.

[@robertshulenberger]

I love this song

[@blippacg]

Pretty profound stuff Ty, the absence of family history. It helps to know who we are as individuals.

[@dragon-eye75]

Let's all remember what Martin Luther King said: It's the content of your character.

[@chuckhunter6098]

Hey young man. You are a good man. Be proud and be strong. Much love from a old retired welder from Texas.

[@oldscool1965]

Sorry you missed out on the family bonds but you turned out great and any man white or black would be proud to call you son.

[@rogeroday9408]

I would be.

[@johnnyalvidrezjr1790]

I'm glad you like country music.

[@obits3]

If you haven’t already, check out the song “this ain’t nothing.” I can’t remember the artist, but it’s amazing.

[@xandrkhan2777]

thanx brother! the real stuggle was in 1968

[@positivelypenny1392]

My Grandpa was a tail gunner in WW2.

[@dancrafton89]

Jamey Johnson have a song call Lead Me Home that I like. God bless you.

[@darrelldodd3965]

Enjoy watching your authentic reactions and responses. God Bless You!

[@yaimavol]

The generiational knowledge passed down to children is so important, because they're not just learning it from a history book. My uncle fought in the Korean War and tells stories about driving his Jeep under sniper fire and just trying to survive. iI asked some young teens I met recently why we have a North and South Korea and they didn't even know. This is sad and it is really pathetic. We've lost so many good young men to try and keep South Korea free and today's kids have no idea why

[@rebeccathomas6613]

I love a song that tells a story. This song reminds me of my Grandpa that lost his eye and the whole side of his face in that war. He was always a hero in my eyes. I miss him very much.

[@benjeminecarpenter2894]

This video made me subscribe. God bless you sir

[@Modern-Renaissance-Man]

Thank you!

[@davidholtsclaw9489]

Thanks for sharing

[@kippytx]

I am a grandma of 6. And I live with 4 of my grandkids. Growing up I was very close to my grandparents. They helped shape who I am. And I feel blessed

[@wadepenley8234]

Thank you sir for bringing up the grace of God. I Christians can only say two things it would be the saving grace of God and the blessing grace of God!

[@janetneal4466]

He was referring to old photographs. Photos used to be in black and white before color photo technology existed. You’re so young you might not have seen boxes of old black and white photo, especially in the absence of a dad and grandparents. Beautiful, honest reaction. There is a line in a different song that says “if you never knew your daddy, like I never knew mine, it seems like everybody knows you’re fatherless.” It pulls at my heart every time. My father wasn’t around much either. Consider reacting to Rock in Rio version of Iron Maiden’s Sign of the Cross sometime.

[@bubbapacha7672]

Dont laugh at me by mark wills. Very powerful message

[@Justin_Williams1025]

Just recommended this on another video... this is a great song!!

[@dawncrawford7183]

I love this song. Jamie’s voice is smooth. I understand how it must be growing up without a dad in the home but there is some of us that had a dad in the home but that was unfortunately just that! Hope that makes sense without being ugly. I will say this your mother must have been a Queen to raise a King. You are one nice, kind hearted person, intelligent person.. Love watching you! Thank you for sharing. Thank you for all you do. I was one that requested this song!👍😘 Thank you!

[@StalkerMomRosie]

It was World War 2 in the 1940s, and we fought the Japanese. I didn't know my grandparents either. I only met an aunt, uncle, and cousin on my Dad's side, one time. My mother's parents died before I was born. So I can relate. My father wasn't around because he was an abusive alcoholic so my mom left him. I do have my mom's stories about her childhood though, and I knew her sister. She had brothers but we never met.

[@aliciawillis0465]

Real Country

[@donnaharlow3060]

You turned out perfectly! It says everything about your courageous eternal spirit. ❤ The song was very touching.

[@johnqualls6913]

You are a good strong person so glad you have a good life

[@marielaveau5321]

My brother plays and sings this song, it tears me up every time. ♥️

[@richardgould1625]

Keep it up man. You 100 % correct

[@royrodgers567]

I was hoping you reacted to this. I'm just gonna go ahead and like before I watch lol.

[@shirleyallen5178]

Very cool song. I had my dad til mom took me away at 10. They were both older when they had me so I lost em both young. So I was still to young to ask the important questions. I plan on leaving my kids and grandchildren better! That's all we can do baby

[@EarthWalker2023]

Great song

[@freddie1991d]

Omg this song gets me emotional every time I hear it.

[@adamdawson4425]

Thanks for the comments if it wasn’t for the grace of God we would all be screwed

[@andeemac8152]

This song makes me cry like a baby every time. I am not a fan of country but it hits home.

[@caretaker158]

This song is as moving as always. My aunt and I work on genealogy and both of us sooooo regret that we never asked anyone to tell us "stories of the good old days"... and now there's no one left to ask. All we have left are a few black and white photos... and a family who never wrote when, where, or who on the backs of them!

[@GlueGunsRoses]

I love how you relate the videos to you. I just found you and I'm binge-watching when I should be in bed because I got to wake up early when the kids wake up tomorrow. You are such an amazing person ❤❤❤

[@Modern-Renaissance-Man]

NO! GO to sleep please. These videos aren't going anywhere, but one thing you'll never get back is time, so please sleep

[@devnieorozco4155]

Brooks and Dunn- Believe!!! Love your videos!

[@Modern-Renaissance-Man]

Done it already. Thx though

[@breannaspence2480]

I LOVE this song tears come to my eyes every time I hear it.. it has a GREAT message like u need to live life u can take all the pictures u want to but stay in the moment, so u can really remember it.. I LOVE ur reactions...

[@allendixon1466]

Oh yes yes yes yes you need to hear the Forum 8 version Jamey Johnson at Farm Aid just Jamie his guitar and his voice and it is stunning I mean this up blow you away I'm serious

[@kathywoodside3402]

Great song !! From some of your comments on this one , I think you would really like Kelly Clarkson’s “Piece By Piece “. She wrote that song about her father who was not around. Her performance on the last of American idol was very emotional and my favorite, but the official video is good too.

[@haroldsockey6987]

If you like that one check out " the high cost of living" by Jamie johnson.

[@Modern-Renaissance-Man]

done it already but thanks

[@Rita-yw2tn]

You're such a beautiful soul & I'm so blessed to have found this channel ! Thank you for just being you & for sharing your thoughts with all of us . May God bless you & yours always !!!!

[@1bayless]

Amen brother

[@inkoinfinity2]

I also never knew either of my grandfathers (they died before I was born) and I was raised in single parent home but I knew my father. He had a few kids biological and about five step kids so he did his best and I'm thankful for that.Both my grandmothers also passed away within last ten years. So I have to hold on to what I have.

[@blainekristin6290]

I love, love, love this song! I'm sorry you didn't have the opportunity to form a relationship with your extended family. I know that I'm beyond lucky to have known not only all of my grandparents, but I also new all of my great grandparents. Both my mom and dad's parents were all alive until I was 26. My paternal grandfather was the first to pass, followed by my paternal grandmother two years later. I'm extremely close to my maternal grandparents, and thank God above they are both still here. My maternal grandmother was in occupied Poland during WWII. Her father lived to be 104 and his sister 106. My paternal grandmother was an Iroquois from the Seneca tribe. I remember being very young, and her mother, my great grandmother would visit from the reservation. She had the darkest eyes I've ever seen, I'd go as far as to say black. She passed down so much about our history to my Dad, who in turn passed it down to my siblings and I. I am so grateful to have first hand knowledge of both sides of my heritage, even moreso knowing that a vast majority of people never have that opportunity.

[@jimroe1081]

You sure do seem like a good & decent fellar. God bless you for being a good family man. Thanks for playing Jamey Johnson. Glad it meant something to ya.

[@williamadams6084]

[@OffRoad-jh1do]

He always knocks it out of the park! Such a powerful voice and great substance in each song!

[@allendixon1466]

Yes for sure for sure correct on all that but I really am and he's one of my favorites but really look up Jamey Johnson at Farm Aid doing in, it's just Jay Me by self him and his guitar and it's voice

[@maxinemcclurd1288]

My parents were in WWII,I'm a late in life baby ,Mom was 36 and dad 47 when I was born.My grandmothers were great but one grandfather was indifferent and the other was mean.I guess we take what fate hands us,you can't choose your family only the friends/family you make for yourself. You're doing good Ty.You know you have a bunch of "online" surrogate Mom's right?

[@davidryba1379]

I hate my family but I love my grandfather for this This is my family only learned from him

[@kesleycottrell1416]

That is one hell of a song. Gets me everytime.

[@maxinefreeman8858]

You may have grandchildren one day that you can tell stories to. Time goes by fast. I'm telling stories to my grandchildren about the sixties & seventies when I was young.

[@Jimbo922L]

Hey Tye, I love what you say. You are straight up bud. It don’t matter how or where you were raised. What matters is who you are. And you seem like a great guy. I’ve got one that I think you will like. Try Jamey Johnson, She’s all Lady. That is an awesome song.

[@Tasty_Waves_1]

Dude, I saw Jamey Johnson perform Lead Me Home.... I’m not religious at all but that man took me straight to church! It was powerful. He’s an amazing storyteller

[@patrickbouley9232]

This song is deep, definitely one of my favorites.

[@allendixon1466]

check out the Farm Aid version It's just Jamie both self him and his guitar Jamey Johnson at Farm Aid in color

[@benb4343]

I actually had both sets of grandparents & I never got told any of these kinds of stories. They always kept private but who knows, next time I see them I should try & get something out of them before it's too late

[@dal65]

God bless you brother

[@williamstonich7541]

Your awesome I enjoy watching your reactions to Classic Country music. It is a shame that many Black don’t like it without hearing it. Just remember Country music comes from the Blues and many Country artist idalize ten BB Kings and the Buddy Guys

[@williamadams6084]

Oral History is a part of southern life. I've told the stories I heard to my son. I hope he tells them. But you can start it in your family right now! tell your children the stories of your life
