Jason Michael Carroll's Alyssa Lies | Metal / Rock Fan Reaction with Eagle Rare

Post-release edit: If you witness child abuse or neglect, PLEASE report it to YOUR STATE's child protective services or appropriate state agency. Abuse/neglect is largely handled at the state level. Appropriate numbers are just a simple google search away. IF YOU SEE IT, REPORT IT!! Save a life.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

To move your song (or bourbon) to the front of the list, please bribe us by sending a bottle of bourbon, preferably one we haven't had on the channel yet, to: BCR 484 E. Carmel Dr. Suite 155 Carmel, IN 46032

You guys should get a PO Box so people don't randomly show up at your house.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Randomly showing up at our houses would be an extraordinarily dangerous endeavor. - Keith

[@morrius0757]

I mean, there wasn't anything that could have been done. You can't help someone who doesn't come out and tell people they're being abused. Abuse isn't always noticeable, remember, she was covering her bruises, meaning the teachers probably didn't know. Dud's daughter was probably the only friend she told she was getting abused, but by then it was too late. When he went to report what his daughter had heard, she was already killed. Regardless of trying to save someone, not everyone can be saved.

[@melhawl3685]

The most powerful line "because there's nothing anyone WOULD do."

[@warrenburlingame1172]

This story had to be told. It took Jason Michael years to write this. Everytime he tried he would get a migraine. I think this should be played in school every year

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

It probably should be.

[@penniegwin1320]

It would have helped me and my family. But who knows?

[@jacque8735]

The true story in this video was a teacher playing that song for his class and having students leave the class in both anger and sadness. It states in the video after its over that they had a couple students step forward to report domestic abuse.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Whoa. Well, I guess I could see how that could happen. Terrible stuff.

[@QueenOfTheSea101]

and don't forget that it was Jason Michael Carroll's high school teacher who encouraged him to become a country superstar that was the teacher in the video.

[@Gutslinger]

I was skeptical about that by how close some of those camera shots were on the girl that left the classroom, before she left the classroom. And how conveniently placed they were outside where she went and sat down.

[@aragorn7968]

@@Gutslinger The story is true. The classroom and the teacher is a recreation.

[@dalefleming6427]

The other thing I noticed....watching this reaction again for and with my wife.....you cut off the video where they tell us that this song/video prompted some of the children, in that class, to come forward with domestic issues and got help, and one girl was removed from her situation.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I've reached out to some heavy-hitting assets in the child protection world looking for a national number that's "established" as a solid one. (So we can add it to the vid description.) The word I'm getting is that aside from the CMEC, all of that work is handled at the state level. So for legit numbers, there are 50 of them. All any national org could do is refer to the appropriate state.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Also, we've updated the video description.

[@VENOMS_WRAITH]

Yeah they should have let the video finish and not stop it where they did.

The ppl of country music CARE about bringing awareness to these types of abuse. If they can make more ppl FEEL things with these songs, the more that those ppl might actually help do something about it. More genres should have as much integrity

[@terryduncan31]

Country music is about bringing the truth out for the blind to see. Real life and not some Hollywood BS.

[@ellicechamberlain711]

Country music tells a story. Sometimes it is used to bring awareness to deep issues that people don't like to talk about. It can also be used to help people deal with things. A good example of that is Craig Morgan's My Father, My son, and the Holy Ghost. It is about losing his son and having to live everyday.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

That awareness thing happens in a lot of genres. The first big one I remember was Live Aid in the 80s. That was quite the show. It was all over the news for weeks.

[@ellicechamberlain711]

Oh yes. I remember Queen kind of took it over with the best concert, ever.

I was always at my kids elementary school. I was room mother, library, health room, I saw and loved so many kids. One day the principal came to me and asked “ can you take $&#@ home with you.” Yes absolutely, I scooped that child up and took him for a burger, then on to TJMaxx for clothes, he/her hid his face the whole time. Then I picked up my kids brought them home and they played the rest of the day. We had that sweet child for 8 months, the county took the child and we begged to the child stay.

[@camorken]

Most important line in the whole song "because there was nothing anyone WOULD do" if there was nothing anyone could do that would be one thing but the fact that noone WOULD do what the COULD is heart wrenching

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Agreed. One thing worth pointing out however, is that in almost every state (probably all 50) teachers are mandated reporters. She had no choice, by law, but to report. Though, when this song was released, that may not have been true yet. I don't know when it came out. - Keith

I was thinking you would want a refill before the song was over. I cry every time I hear this song. I worked for child protective services for 19 years. I saw and heard more than I ever wanted too. I would go home and cry and hug my kids.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Yeah, my wife was a social worker in Detroit. I have some idea, but it's not the same as seeing those horrors first hand.

[@chelankaufman9705]

This song brings a “shameful “ topic right in your face. As someone who went through multiple abusive foster homes this song made me feel seen when I was young. It’s not the victims shame it’s the perpetrator’s, talking about it is the only way we can face it and hopefully make changes. Foster kids and abused kids have no voice and no rights to stand up for themselves. I live in Montana and it’s still legal to hit your kids as long as it doesn’t leave a bruise after 48 hours. Abuse is abuse. I really appreciate your reaction. These kids need more people to care enough to change the “CPS” system.

[@cassievarble8305]

Yea, country music is usually all about the heartstrings. The favorite themes are Love, Loss and Country. You wont hear a genre of music that is as parotitic as country is. The love songs are as pure as it gets too, and when they write about loss and serious matters....it will get you every time! I would recommend the songs, Tim McGraw: The Highway Don't Care. Tim McGraw: Don't Take The Girl. Lonestar: I'm Already There!!! Such a great song!

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

We'll add those to our list. But we're finding not all country is all heartstrings. There are some good-time/party tunes as well.

[@melanieallen8390]

I went to school with Jason and I love watching the reaction videos to this song, cause it is bringing this horrible issue to light and helping people to “see something, say something” my daughter has a friend that confided in her that she and her sister was being abused, by her mom (who was a substitute teacher) my daughter came to me and told me and showed me the text that she and her friend was having and in those messages the friend told my daughter that she was going to unalive herself that night and she very well tried it. It scared my daughter so bad, so she came to me about it, and I immediately called 911 and sent them the text log and the address. The cops went immediately and got her to the hospital just in time, she did live and the law took it from there. What was even worse was that my daughter was NOT the only person she had told about the abuse and what she had planned to do, and that cry for help fell by the wayside. To say I was and still am VERY VERY proud of my daughter is a understatement. “SEE SOMETHING DO SOMETHING” even if you don’t believe what is being said, cause it can and does save lives.

[@mykyhome]

It's a beautiful song very sad it should be played more on the radio cause I'm sure it's still going on

[@AuntCoke]

For feel-good songs, try "Lucky Man", "Some People Change", or " She Couldn't Change Me" - all 3 are by Montgomery Gentry.

Sometimes people can't do anything when people won't let you. Last year around Thanksgiving a little boy in my son's class on zoom used a trash bag full of clothes for a chair. I noticed his background and this day they were talking about what they did and this little boy was so excited that his grandmother was able to save enough to get him a cheeseburger from McDonald's for his Thanksgiving. Turned out this family was hit hard with covid and they were starving. I asked the teacher if we could please help this family. I could get them food within the hour I just please need the name or address something anything. The school refused to give me anything and said that family is alright and times are hard for everyone. I kept begging they moved my son from that class so I don't know how that little boy is.

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Ugh. Sadly, this is a commonly repeated story. Few pay attention.

[@MissAmazanda]

I know this was a while ago but I believe others like reactions like these because it reminds all of us that there are REAL LIVE people out there who are COMPASSIONATE and still feel and there are times we really need that reminder. All this nasty media and the craziness in the world its nice to know there are real folks with compassion and real feelings in their hearts. So songs like this and Martina's music kind of hit close to home and at the same time remind us that there are people out there who care and give a damn about others.

That's the true story. Where the teenager who is being abused left the room and the teacher followed her out where somebody him did something for the abuse teenager. And that program and it's growth in high schools and spreading throughout the country. That's the true story.

The night the light's went out in Georgia by Reba McEntire is a must

My dad abused me physically, emotionally, and sexually/raped as a kid from 4 years until I was 10 then we ran away. It continued until I was 16 due to visitation and then I found Jesus at 16 years old. I forgive him even if I will always remember.

I was even more mad about there was nothing anyone WOULD do, that's just me though.

Neither is acceptable.

@@BourbonCountryReacts agreed, but a failed attempt is better than not trying at all

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

Agreed.

Do you know when and what song your gonna react to, or do you want it to be a surprise... 😊

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

@@dalefleming6427 We have a huge list of requests we manage. Dustin keeps pretty meticulous track of it. We know the next few we're going to react, but we usually plan a few out, then re-evalute. It's 100% based on what you guys request. There's actually a considerable amount of work that goes into keeping track of it all. Regardless, we do kinda keep "upcoming" under wraps. The closest we get to telegraphing what's coming, is if someone requests one we know is upcoming, we'll give 'em a "stay tuned" reply in the comments. - Keith

It’s a beautiful song and country music does hit you in the heart because it’s speaking truth. But no, let’s have some older country! Please check out Marty Robbins song “El Paso” or “Big Iron” they have a much more western cowboy gunfighter story. ☮️🌼♥️

[@BourbonCountryReacts]

I've heard Big Iron, because it's in a soundrack to a video game I used to play a lot. We'll add El Paso, though. - Keith
