[@Deuce68270]

He's got a hint of Johnny Cash in him 👍

UPDATE: Paul absolutely melted the Kessler to the ground!! Amazing show by an amazing artist!! GO SEE HIM LIVE AND DO YOURSELF A FAVOR!!

[@personreanimation]

Thanks for the tears man. I think about my son's endeavours. I want to pray for an easy life for him, but I know an easy life isn't a successful life. It's a double edged sword that cuts me every time I think about it. Keep making fantastic music brother.

[@knocknevis7390]

Amen. When I got home from my 3rd combat tour, my Daughter was born shortly after, shes 6 today and the materialistic, ego driven, young brute of an ass I use to be has moved on, all I can do is try to teach her how to endure the world and lifes challenges while watching her enjoy her youth, knowing its just a matter of time before her veil is lifted and the reality sets in. Take care. Cheers

Paul Cauthen, you are spreading like a wildfire. Your fans will keep lighting matches in unsuspecting hearts.Thanks for the Boise show this year. The rain fell hard from my eyes during this song. I can't wait to see you again. Six months later, I'm still tapping into the energy you put out that night.

[@witchking6787]

[@juniorthird7952]

It'd be gay

[@Camlynn0503]

@@juniorthird7952 😂

[@OKLAHOMA_47]

Vocally I get it... otherwise, I don't see the match up. I don't wanna say Colter is more hat than cattle but... I think he'd get showed up as the lesser artist on this hypothetical collab (which I don't feel he is, personally) unless it was the perfect track. Too much red dirt in Paul, not enough disco or soul in Colter. He gets plenty of airtime in my truck, but I think its gonna have to be a Tyler Childers type, or to take it another direction, Charlie Crockett. Not Charlie's normal gig but with his ability to go out and bring in obscure tracks from a generation or two ago and either turn out a cover that sounds like the song is his, or lay it down true as hell to the original - I don't know, I just think it'd work out surprisingly well for as much difference exists between em. Lot of ways either one of my examples could just be a trash fire of a failure, but - I stand by it!! Nothin wrong with a track with Wall either, just wouldn't expect dynamite from that pairing.

[@billyhawkins5092]

I went to school with ole Paul, Great Guy

[@thethree60five]

It's rare you hear an artist like Paul. When a song can transport you in your mind like this song, you just know they have true talent. He's firing on all cylinders with this one! Great work!

[@calebclanton8918]

Man, I would love to spend a week partying with this dude. Paul definitely became probably my favorite in county of this generation. There are a few other good ones but very few it seems. I would love to see a duet with him and Colter Wall as they both have voices that are deep, rich, and stand out.

[@alexanderwallroth3002]

[@RuFi0000000]

So, I'm not someone that likes country at all. I've never had the ear for it, it just never sat right with my palette, and I'm someone that listens to mostly everything. So as I was listening to Paul's interview on NPR (on the way to work), I was pretty disinterested. Then they played some clips, and I was enticed. So I loaded up his album on Bandcamp and played it all the way through at work, and now I'm a fan. Room 41 is One of the best albums I've heard this year. It's truly good from start to finish, and now I can say I like "country." The fact that he mixes soul, rock, r-n-b, and other genres in makes it a joy to listen to. Not to mention the instrumentation is so skilled and interesting, his songwriting and storytelling is really unique and well-done, and all of the genres are intertwined so well, and his voice just melts it all into one perfect package. I'm like a superfan of this guy right now and I really pray for his success, because if this is the type of stuff people think of when they say "I listen to country", I'm all for it.

[@esmeraldasoto996]

Paul Cauthen is the David Bowie of country.

[@jaytonhawkins2872]

Classic country voice and imagery with indie/folk melodies. A beautiful combination.

[@dball87]

This song gives me chills.

[@adamk9700]

Was just introduced to this guy and I’m a quick fan!! His vocal range as a baritone is really something else! And the song was a beautiful amalgam of a Mumford and sons meets colter wall but totally original at the same time! Well fucking done Paul!!!

[@chrisknight8416]

Cocaine Country Dancing was a hell of a track, but this one is amazing! I'm seriously impressed with his range and charisma. All that, and he doesn't take himself too seriously at all. BEST OF LUCK MAN!

I know this won't be cool to say on this comment section, but I don't think I've liked a single song hes ever sung the 1st time I heard it. Luckily I have a rule to always listen to new stuff 2 or 3 times, and he is quickly becoming one of my favorite new artist that I have found. Thank you for the great music, and I will keep on listening. Update: I have listed to this 27 times now. Too good to stop.
