Justin Timberlake - Say Something ft. Chris Stapleton (REACTION!!!)

[@sorethumb78]

I love how amped they get when Chris Stapleton shows up!

[@P4PKing]

Fun fact: This whole music video was sung live and in one take.

[@leannearchambault2852]

You guys should react to Justin and Chris' performance at the CMA 2015 Awards with the songs Tennesse Wiskey and Drink You Away...one of the best Awards performance ever.

[@whipporwillssong2256]

Definitely one the best live performances I have seen in a verrrry long time, for sure.

[@acb1057]

I've become a big fan of Chris Stapleton through this channel. Thanks for the introduction.

[@leeshocklidge721]

When Chris stapleton adds his voice to this it just launches it into the stratosphere! How he pounds out meloooodyyyyyy 😍 the voice of a generation he's incredible . . .And big respect to Justin for reinventing himself . . I hope this is how his music will go now because he's so talented and hiding behind music and dancing etc although he's good at it doesn't highlight his real talent .. . .Such a breath of fresh air in the music world I seriously can't stop listening to this song it's perfect . . .That bit when it's just Chris Justin and the choir for the first time goes right to the bone it's perfect

[@JKONGnDNME]

Clicked on this fast as hell, Chris Stapleton is so absurdly talented it almost makes me sick lol. JT is also one of those disgustingly talented guys. All around great song

[@michaelvondrake7489]

JKONGnDNME Exactly.

[@agresticumbra]

The song is actually about criticism JT received about cultural appropriation in his music. His tweet in response could easily interpreted as dismissive, even defensive, and he regretted his words because he says they were not what he felt or thought. JT had asked chris to write songs for his album, and “Say Something” was one of the tunes they collaborated on (with other folks). Chris had no intention of singing with JT on it, but was asked to, which, IMO, elevated the song even more.

[@75downs]

YESssss!!

[@cherylbyrnes2826]

agresticumbra Absolutely genius.

[@sdalt001]

Music is an aggregate process. Cultural appropriation is joke in regards to music. Gospel met country. Fast forward, blues, rock n roll, funk, metal, punk, rap, hip-hop, and today. The whole story is a cultural collaboration. Those who say otherwise is ignorant of the historical narrative. The irony of alleged racism in this country, is one of America's greatest creations is the seamless fusion of black and white musical culture.

[@adityabharatee6655]

@@sdalt001American culture of seamless mix of the 2 style of music.....I agree.

[@aaronlemons9325]

Timbo and Danja made the beat

[@_pulyx]

Good that you guys picked the right version. This was recorded live for the shoot and it's much better than the studio version. Great song

[@awill296]

Paulo Brasil I was bummed when JT did not offer a deluxe album with this version on it. I guess other people agreed because they released it as a single a couple months later.

[@gunnertheboxer3006]

Watch the live version they did on the Tonight Show live on Super Bowl Sunday last Feb. This video was released the next day, so it was the world premier of the song.

[@Mssparklez85]

Okay. Y'all need to look up Justin Timberlake and Chris Stapleton on CMA 2015. Watch the 8 minute one...that is when I first heard Chris Stapleton and no one can pull off a perfect performance like that....except maybe Bruno Mars.

[@GenXer1979]

That performance of drink you away was fire! It brought down the house at the CMA's! You had country artists up on their feet singing and dancing! Death Row is another gem these guys would really like if they appreciate the blues!

[@JKONGnDNME]

Also, a few recommendations I thought y’all would dig. Chris Stapleton - I was wrong Chris Ledoux - This cowboys hat The Highwaymen - Highwayman John Anderson - Seminole Wind David Allan Coe - The ride Tried to stick with country since the album this track is from is heavily inspired by country. I think you should check them out, reaction or not!

[@biggoudagames4322]

JKONGnDNME I Was Wrong is one of Chris's best songs

[@bradrussell1015]

For Highwaymen I think their cover of The Road Goes On Forever would be a great review, good sound and a great story. A bit easier listening for the general public than the original

[@aaronsnodgrass6562]

After listening to the original 'Highwayman', it would be a good idea to check out Iced Earth's cover.

[@acarpentersson8271]

Im down for Chris Ledoux

[@Goofyrandomdude]

JKONGnDNME they've already listened to I was wrong

[@hwarner010578]

My favorite "reactions" are when the songs are out of your comfort zone , because you guys are genuine !

[@michaelvondrake7489]

WOW! If you really listen, you can hear the acoustics of the building they're in. At one point not long after Justin Timberlake went solo, I realized that his talent was undeniable as was his knowledge of bands, artists and music. I was part of a catering crew at a golf tournament in Central California and had just gotten off work. I was having my dinner and a drink wear a Hockey Jersey and listening to music on my headphones. Jeremy Roenick and Justin Timberlake walk by in they're golf get up. To my surprise that came back out and sat at my table so I took my headphones off and at first we talked about Ice Hockey and football. Then Jeremy asked me what I was listening to. When I said "Heavy Metal", Jeremy smiled at Justin and said "Told you. Most hockey fans listen to the Metal"... they asked what bands. At the time I was listening to SAVATAGE and they reacted "Oh, Yeah! Tampa guys know how to rock!". Which tells me they're familiar with the band. They asked me if I ever listen to Justin. I answered honestly that I like most of what I have heard from him and the songs on EA Sports games I played but didn't own any of his music. Jeremy asked if I listened to his band. I told them I didn't know he had one. He said, "I don't. I just wanted to see how honest you were being". The rest of the conversation is classified information 😏

[@loganellis9867]

[@gregpotter6675]

[@sulathenewfie4277]

Chris and Jt are musical golf together! When they played CMT Awards show in 2015 (go watch them sing 2 songs back to back together) they were EPIC!!! Everyone in that room was on their feet and knew they were watching an epic moment. It was what launched Chris into mainstream (look what happened to his record sales the week following that performance)... and they play together on tour a lot too... they mesh beautifully

[@patsantos5991]

[@shirleyujest7786]

Thank you for reacting to this. It's pheominal and would never have popped up on my radar had you not reacted to it. And the one take video is so dynamic, it makes for the perfect backdrop to the song.

You guys have seriously got to watch the performance Chris Stapleton and Justin Timberlake did together at the Country Music Awards. I'm not really a big country fan and it was one of the most Soulful performances I've ever seen.

[@amandaschluer8488]

As someone who grew up on many generations of “country music” and being told it’s not cool and hearing a yee haw from almost everyone I knew I’m so thankful for these kinds of videos. I listen to all kinds of music for different reasons and always thought people misrepresented the country genre. Most artists are incredibly talented. I’m so happy to see the diversity and the openness to learn about a new style. Thank you

Damn. J.T. is the truth, Chris Stapleton is the truth, and y'all are the truth. A tip, tho', I don't know if y'all are aware of this. You can press K to pause a KZbin video, press J and K to move back and forth 10 seconds. I think it makes things way easier not having to drag the mouse around. Just a personal preference, tho'.

[@davidstott2534]

Aye, good tip, you can also use spacebar to pause and the left and right arrows on the keypad to go back and forward in 5 second intervals. Great song as well, making the playlist.

[@thecidmc]

Pressing spacebar if you've clicked outside the actual video usually scrolls down the whole page, which can be annoying, whereas pressing K will pause the video regardless as long as you haven't clicked in the comment box.

[@bipolarbear9952]

This is how I interpret the song: He's talking about the public feeling like they have a right to know everything about his life. It sounds like he made mistakes in his relationship and they became public knowledge. Everyone's telling him to comment on it, but he doesn't want to be just another piece of gossip. He wants more control over what he publicly says and doesn't say. "Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing at all."
