Rodney Atkins - If You're Going Through Hell (Reaction!)

[@susieq1565]

This happened to me TODAY. I am an over 50yr old woman, 5ft tall and I have been in every aspect of construction. I was working in the heat all day, no money, drinking warm water at our lunch break and thinking I might be having a heat stroke. A woman walked up to me and asked if I had ice in my thermos of water. After telling her no, she went in the store and bought me ice for my drink and gave me her own lunch. She is a city bus driver and had just gotten off work, tired and stressed no doubt. Such a simple act of kindness brought tears to my eyes. I came home after work to this reaction video. Thank you

If you like Rodney Atkins you might like his song Watching You. Especially as a father.

[@tquiring212]

Or Cleaning This Gun. Either/or is a great song about fatherhood....

[@reneelee8870]

I was just thinking about Watching You!

[@jpoe8915]

and He's Mine

[@manger4000]

Watching you is a MUST as a father

[@spectrelead]

@@manger4000And "Cleaning This Gun" is a must if you have daughters

[@Trampus002]

This was my daughter’s favorite song when she was young. She was bullied in school for quite a while. She is 31 now. Seemed to me like bullying didn’t seem to matter much to adults in charge. That type of abuse is hard on children. This song helped her. Shame on any school that turns their head. She is good though. A very good and honest woman. So proud of her.

[@jonigarciajg]

Im a therapist and i het teary everytime i her thisbsong, it reminds me of so many of my clients and i visualize them pushing through their challenges.

[@seanwilliams7865]

From a father of a daughter to another father of daughters, Rodney atkins cleaning this gun is a must.

[@GlynisSakowicz]

this song got me thru hell.... my daughter was murdered, and I was sitting in my car, just trying to figure out how to even take that next breath, when that song came on, and it was like he was singing right to me. For my 4 other daughters, for the chance to see justice for my missing daughter... for the strength to raise my now orphaned grandson... I sometimes go from one breath to the next, but I keep going...

[@shellymarquez9320]

I think his best song is, “Watching You”!🎉❤

[@Jackie76305]

Or Cleaning My Gun.... Sebs does have daughters!

[@JustMe-gn6yf]

​@@Jackie76305"Farmers daughter"

[@rebeccawright5987]

Same. I love that song

[@williamtauriello1581]

If you’re going through hell, walk through it like you own it!🔥👍👍

[@drucillacollins9431]

I lost my brother almost 2 years ago. When this song came out, I'd laugh my ass off with him and say," You know this song is about you right?!". He give me a big cheesy grin and giggle like a girl. He was a 6 foot 5 body builder... It still makes me smile through tears. He battled mental illness and alcoholism. It led to some bad choices that led to his death. He did not feel like he could just call and get a ride for some reason....he was caught in a flash flood and drowned. I can still see his big cheezy smile and his long legs pumping as he runs from a sticky situation. We all agreed that there was a party in heaven the day he died. A retirement party ...for his guardian angel. Love you Bubs!!!

[@tysonalms1938]

I’ve been deep down in that darkness, I’ve been down to my last match. I’ve felt a hundred different demons breathing fire down my back. That’s the season I’m in in my life and Ive come back to this song so much

[@vickismith9049]

I just love your heart…your candidness and humility…your love of our Lord and family

[@lynlarson6698]

I just hsve to tell you, I live in a town of 700 people and our Legion burned down. We had a fundraiser and raised over 200,000.00. I'm so proud of the generosity in my home town. I just want you to know that you seem to have the same mentality. Thank you for what you do.

[@PaintingandExercise]

There is another song that is done by Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, and Tracy Lawrence called "You Find Out Who Your Friends Are". It is a great song about going through bad times and who are your real friends. Sensitivity and hard times creates empathy and compassion for what others are struggling through.

[@terrimobley6067]

I'd never heard this. It's in my playlist now. Thank you and I Pray God turn His face to you

[@mattbrentlinger1078]

Buddy, please don’t take that encouragement for granted, it’s as priceless as those little ones.

[@loriturney9212]

I really do enjoy you and your wife. Your reaction is always so real.

[@brandymccoyslone700]

One my favs by Rodney ❤❤try watching you my 6 year olds favorite song❤

[@joshuas3109]

I have always been a more sensitive person, it sucks sometimes. But on the flip side, when someone else is having a hard time, I am sensitive enough to pick up on it and help them out. Being sensitive is nothing to be ashamed of, and don't think that your viewers get annoyed when you get emotional. Honestly, seeing how the songs get to you is one of the reasons I come and watch.

[@pinky2245]

I agree 100%!

[@HeatherShaw-q9b]

I'm an empath, so I know how you feel. It hurts so much when other people are in pain.

[@nspd2]

Brother your a human, if your emotional so what. It shows your humanity. Stay strong you have a great cheerleading section st home and is here. It will all work out somehow trust in Gods plan. We got you here as well.

[@Jo_Jo_Cat]

I have always love this song and listen to it whenever im.having a really hard time im so glad u liked it

[@sarahdee374]

I agree, gratitude for big and little things, wonderful people and beauty truly transforms any situation!

[@davidfarinella129]

Its America is another great song of Rodney Atkins.

[@hannahhester8376]

Can't ever get that intro out of your head, freaking awesome song.

[@reneelee8870]

Rodney Atkins song Watching You. As a parent, everyone needs to listen to it! Hope you get a chance to listen to it.

[@michellemacgillivray3776]

I've listened to this song so many times in my life. it's so true

[@montanagal17]

I love this song and I love your honesty. Country music expresses feelings, troubles and joy…among many other parts of life. Don’t ever apologize for tears and feeling deep emotions…that’s what makes us grow. Once when I was going through a tough, scary time, someone reminded me of this…Never give up; never surrender and know that this time will soon be gone and life will be good again, at least for awhile!😇

[@rogerrandolph9685]

My son's favorite song several yrs ago. He is 24 and on his adult journey now. Thanks for the vid.

[@jasonsilva1943]

One of my favorite artists please do more

[@timcaldwell5241]

Rodney is one of the most UNDER rated singers out there!!! As far as the emotional part…there’s no rhyme nor reason for why certain songs strike that chord in us as individuals. I always saw that song as funny upbeat “piece of advice song”’…I never got emotional over it, until you did…damn it…lol! All I can say is, hang in there buddy…I’ve got way too much, emotionally, invested in you and your beautiful family…so anytime “we” as a community can be of help…just remember We got your back!!! I feel America is the big winner here, that you decided to live here and raise your family here…. HAPPY FOURTH🎉

[@jakecharbonneau6417]

Thank you for doing a reaction to this song. It's so true about Life today.

[@DonnaTerry-p8s]

Your so right!! Everything's going to be alright 👍 God is with you!! You are blessed

[@becksullivan4796]

This old woman just wants to give you a hug. Keep moving forward!

[@teresamerkel7161]

Hang in there Sebs. You got this. Dan Vasc (whom you've covered in the past) doesn't know country so he doesn't know this song but he's fond of saying if you're going thru hell don't stop or you'll live there. Bad times don't last forever. Faith does. And those angels in your life; glad they're there for you. Glad you find giving to others helpful; you give a lot thru this channel; to me at least. I don't mind sensitive. When its real its real. Makes me feel I know you. Ah. the internet. :)

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

You beat me to it! I was going to mention that about Dan. Love the rest of your comment, and agree with that, as well. 😀

[@lunchboxradio5890]

It's not annoying bro, it's beautiful. Therapy is therapy, it may not be for you, but this is literally my therapy. Watching folks like you. Thank you.

[@natecloe8535]

"These Are My People" and "Watching You" are both songs from Rodney that are right up your alley. The first is about community and family. The second about fatherhood. Both are absolutely incredible.

[@pdimler]

It's a quote from Winston Churchill during WWII, if you're going through hell keep on going. The rest is Rodney.

[@lynhaynie6102]

You are an amazing human being. You have helped me much more than you know ❤

[@jeremyruth9096]

Long time viewer, first time commenter. This is among the top three country songs of mine. It’s got me through a lot of tough times in my life.

[@SuperDave71176k]

Another great example of 3 chords and the truth.Remember land of opportunity and the pursuit of happiness.

[@tonyaprewitt9438]

One of my favorite gets me through alot of stuff.

[@lynnsteward6712]

There is nothing wrong with being sensitive!! It's one of things that made me subscribe to your channel. God Bless You & Yours❤

[@mikeadams2677]

Don't measure a man by how many times he's fallen, but how many times he's willing to get back up when he falls and keeps moving forward. That's including yourself. The roads to success is paved with failures and misfortunes. Also don't hold any grudge against those who have wronged you or you feel have wronged you along the way, fore grudges are just anchors that hold you back from moving forward.

[@carion2116]

This is one of my favorite song. I have tons of time where I have just wished the devil would find me an get it over, but then I see a little day light. My genie is in bottle of Southern Comfort. Yeah she lies to.

[@cog4life]

We forget how much we have; how blessed we are with faith and family. Don’t give up…keep on going. Praying for y’all 🙏🏼👆🏼😊

[@traciemack6168]

Love your reactions sweetie. You and your wife are a very lovely young couple. Hope y'all make it to a Garth concert!

[@pamelaglassburn7802]

One of my favorites...

[@TonyaPalmer-i4l]

I wasn't a wild child, scared of the fears implanted in my mind..... I'm 58 in October, buried 2 husbands and my third husband tried to commit suicide.... During these triles I faced, I feel so blessed....raised 6 children, his, mine and someone else's..... Enjoy your family.... don't wait to spend time and show and say I love you to the love.... DON'T BLINK.... WONDERFUL SONG ❤️😘

[@jlaw0520]

I have been a fan of reaction channels for a few years now, but I only recently stumbled across yours and I gotta say, you became my favorite very quickly! I love seeing your reactions with your lovely, Beautiful wife too. Hope things at work get less stressful for you. Things will get better! ❤

[@letitiawatson3969]

Sebs always speak positive thoughts into the universe what goes out will come back to you 10 fold...God bless

[@hollymiser5503]

Inspiration can come from anywhere and you my friend were inspired by this song. This was kinda my "anthem" for a long while. Play this song every time you need to. It worked for me.

[@boomeister2]

Definitely listen to Rodney Atkins "Watching You"

[@tjw1780]

Yes we need it, ty. Love back at you. 57. That hit real.

[@tallestmountain]

His song Honesty is a great song about what it s needed in a marriage.

[@wizelbee]

I'll bet you would enjoy the Highwaymen. Waylon, Willie, Johnny & Kris Live in Las Vegas.

[@aliciazantow5786]

Every storm runs out of rain!! Again cant remeber the artist, but this is sigmaler to this one! Both songs have gotten me through alot of shit

[@randykillman6475]

The person you are, just as you are is the person that is loved by so many. Keep being genuine and putting one foot in front of another. Take help when you need it. We are not created to be independent but rather interdependent. You are right, take the experience and wisdom you have learned and help someone else who is going through a rough time.

[@amybauldree2624]

The Farmer's Daughter is another great song of his.

[@timothycluey4505]

My stepson is a marine that trained out at MCRD. He told me that during church they would sing this song every week during basic teaining.

[@shadsullivan7817]

This song has actually gotten me through a lot of rough times.

[@kennethwhitaker6816]

I listened to this song over and over when I was in the hospital for 6 months recovering from a 2 month coma after a car accident. It got me through a rough time

[@janewestpoldskrvseth]

Seb we loves and will support you as much as we can, thanks for sharing and take care hugs from Norway 🫂🫂💞💞

[@kshaas22]

You’re doing a great job with this channel! Just hang in there with your day job! Life sometimes really stinks. Just remember the good times. Positives always outweigh the negatives. There were days my husband‘s career wasn’t going well and he would be worried about taking care of the family. I always reassured him. I would eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the rest of our lives and live in a cardboard box if we could be together. Family matters and jobs come and go.

[@rosemariediamond5948]

Praying everything picks up for you in your job. You are a good man

[@candiceniemyjski2569]

It's been awhile since I have heard this song. I needed this song today. Thank you for choosing this one today.

[@andreathomas8091]

Sounds like a God wink…for him and you…. :)

[@tonyabomia7217]

Sounds like you're going through something yourself. Hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

[@pinky2245]

I'm getting Tim McGraw vibes from Rodney and from this song, very similar voice and style. Never apologize for getting emotional. You are obviously a caring and loving man, your wife and daughters are very blessed to have you in their lives! And concerning the work situation, remember the old saying "this too shall pass". All the best!

[@dracarys2015]

You got this Sebs... cause God the Father's got YOU. One of my favorite mantras is... "When God closes one door, He opens another... but it can be hell in the hallway." Like Rodney said... keep on moving! Have faith, brother. Nothing worth having comes easy. Remember whose son you are. May God bless your whole beautiful family. ❤

[@KristineT4525]

Never be sorry for sharing emotions! We all have our turns going through tough times. Coming out the other side gives a new perspective and lets us be those angels for others. Give yourself the grace you would give someone else. You got this!

[@jaqathome]

It’s going to be fine, Sebs. In this life there will be troubles, not might be, not could be… will be. This is just one of those times in life you’ll look back on and remember that you got out before the devil even knew you were there.

[@chrisphillips6249]

I really like the last couple lines of the angels verse. Angels... pull you back up on your feet - the one's that you've been dragging for so long you're on your knees you might as well be praying Here's what I'm saying

[@dianekerr4685]

You are always so uplifting and I love listening to your reactions because because they always make me smile. And sometimes, it only take a smile to brighten someones day and imporove how their whole day is going.

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

I love Rodney's music, and this is one of my favorites! 😀 The natural light looks great. I'll be standing with you in prayer. Papa God is really stressing how much He loves us in this day and time. Things are difficult, but keep looking into His eyes, and focus on His love. We will make it through and be able to look back and see just how much God blessed us...through it all. Grandma HUGS!

[@KevinDurning-u3q]

My daughter was in Marine Corps bootcamp in 2006 and her mom and I sent the lyrics of this song to her to help her through.

Listen to Watching You. He said his son's preschool teacher called him and said his son was serenading the class with Going Through Hell and it wasn't appropriate. He then wrote Watching You about kids learning from adults and his son is in the video.

[@katherinemcdaniel8446]

Hey there. Don't ever feel bad about yourself for feeling things. Its what makes life worth living. And no, it's not annoying when you feel the song. That's what songs are for!

[@dlbeal]

Hey Sebs, I am really enjoying your channel and the journey you are on. I have a special request, one that has special meaning to some of us. Chris Ladoux's song This Cowboys Hat. The story telling and his guitar and voice take me to a special place filled with a special memory. Please consider reacting to it, I really think you will love it. It is not really a Country song, it is an Old school Texas country song. TY!!

[@sherrimeyers9027]

All we can do in any situation is to keep our heads up and remember things always get better
