This song was written after band member Gary Rossington wrapped his car around an oak tree while wasted (first verse) and survived. Ronnie Van Zant nicknamed Rossington "Prince Charming". Three days after the album's release the plane crash that killed members of the band happened. Gary Rossington was one of the members that survived.

And not socially, alone, at home, which is really sad. Becoming too poor to buy it anymore is what finally got me to stop. No rehab, just knew if I wanted to keep my home I had to pull it together.

Aerosmith walked out onto the tarmac to fly to their next stop on their tour, heard the engines and saw the double propeller airplane they were ready to board and said no way are we getting on that old sick sounding plane, they booked another plane to fly on, sadly about a month later that was the same plane Lynard Scynard got on, a couple of the band members declined boarding and Ronnie ( the singer) said oh c’mon man it’s fine, if it’s your time it’s your time. As mentioned in another comment the original cover of the album was pulled immediately, guitarist Steve Gains is the one in the middle on fire, he was killed along with his sister who was called just a day or two before to fill in for a few gigs to sing backup vocals ( she had done this before when one of the three female backup singers were sick or any other reason they had to miss a show ). I can’t imagine having to be the one who had to call their Mother to let her know both of your children were killed tonight in a plane crash. Both pilots and Ronnie Van Zant lost their lives that night as well. The “ Bad” engine they heard before boarding ( same thing Aerosmith heard too ) it failed about 2 hrs into their flight, the pilot and co pilot couldn’t get it started again so they transferred the fuel from the bad engine over to the good one, because with fuel now pouring all over the bad engine a possible fire was more than possible it would still fly with one engine but it would need more fuel to get to a safe place to land, however probably because of panic the pilot accidentally transferred the fuel from the good engine to the blown out one and the other engine obviously stopped, dead silence in the plane, no engine sound as they were losing altitude at an alarming rate, the pilots did their best to keep control of the plane and fly it like a glider towards an open field they could see in the distance, the forward momentum was of course getting slower and slower they were about half a mile away ( not far at all when flying ) from landing safely on the field but they all heard tree branches breaking and the plane started shaking as the sound of the branches breaking got louder and louder and more violent until it sadly smashed into the bottom of a giant tree splitting the aircraft apart. Mr. Pile the drummer, injured limped in pitch dark through this forest swamp area to get help, the survivors that were trapped in the plane were just waiting for alligators and snakes to come get them, but thankfully they didn’t and help soon arrived. Theres actual news footage here on KZbin of Keyboardist Billy Powell answering questions from a reporter with blood and gashes on his face, I think at the crash site if I remember correctly, he became the unofficial spokesperson from the local hospital they were all taken to, everyday he would be on the news giving updates on his band mates conditions. I can’t remember what his name is but here on KZbin I saw a mini documentary about the crash from a passenger who survived he was the main lightning guy for the shows, details of the flight to horrible details from going down and crashing. On his channel he had a bag and would blindly reach in and grab an old all access pass of his from all the different bands he toured with who hired him and his lighting company during the 1970’s. He would talk about that band and that particular tour and all the funny stuff band members did on the road. There was nothing funny about his last tour. When he pulled the Lynard Skynard pass. I got the chills.. The video was titled something like “ Think you know about the Lynard Scynard plane crash, I was there “ He’s had something like 19 different surgeries on his leg over the years and still has trouble walking, from the crash. He does something he said he would never ever do in the video, he revisits the crash site for the first time ever many years later and a camera crew goes with him. I’ll start searching for it and post the link if I can find it. Fascinating but sad for obvious reasons.

Nice reaction congratulations on your sobriety. I can see your interpretation of the smell. As an old drug addict clean since 89 have a little different interpretation. The smell of death and the smell of powder drug use was the same. It was a nasty smell combination of vomit, cigarettes, alcohol, dirty people, stress, despair ect. Sometimes back then you go to a party, somewhere in the house people will be doing powder drugs and it would smell differently in that part of the house. The smell of death, doom and regret. Just like alcohol but different.

#That Smell #LynyrdSkynyrd #SaeedReacts Yes musically this song "slaps"..has the "hooks" as today's vernacular goes...yet the truth goes way beyond the music..the lyrics can be about drink, smoke, jabs, snorts, sex, shopping or money..whatever gives you the rush... Sadly our cultures have devolved to base fulfilment from the influence of movies and pop-star lives...to have it all you have to allow it all..smh..vice became a way of life...morals, homes, family were and even today still are the victims of our hedonistic lifestyles... Even though the song was prophetic in its writing..it was celebrated by the very ones it was singing to in abandon on dance floors, apartment floors, car seats..wherever they were or ended up... I'm not without history..anyone over the age of consent has at least a knowledge of going too far or leaving something too late...in my old age I pray nightly for the souls of humanity...you my friend have been blessed to have opened your eyes..may you always see... 🌿🌿🌿
