Tim McGraw Don't Take the Girl (Reaction!)

[@kalielder1083]

This song hits me hard. Hours After i delivered my last child by C-section, I started hemorrhaging, blood pressure dropped 60/30 and ended having to have 3 bags of blood. My mom who’s a nurse could only hold my hand and cry as I screamed mommy make them as they tried to stop the bleeding. My poor husband set just on the other side of the curtain holding our newborn son crying and praying. The lord answered bc 3 yrs later I am still here. Your reaction videos are amazing keep making them and good luck on your country journey. Country music is about a way of life

No, the guy's wife died in childbirth....the girl at the end is his daughter!

[@SecondsOfAnOrdinaryLife]

@@markfoor4137 Not sure if you're j/k, but, the little boy holding Johnny's hand is the child she gave birth to, she's running with the picnic basket, Johnny looks up and sees her running to him which is why he's smiling.

[@larynanntapp6333]

@Mark Foor At the end, he takes the boy fishing...his son. They never said in the song if the baby was a girl or boy. In an interview many years ago, Tim said they did it that way so it would be obvious that his wife lived!

I've loved this song since it first came out & NEVER saw the video until today! Made me so happy to see her running with the picnic basket at the end! All these years I thought she probably died.

[@dennismcroberts6272]

Had 3 sons. The middle son named after me. Was my carbon copy. He played minor league baseball. Great kid. Funny. Full of life. He came in with that Tim McGraw CD. Ask my wife to listen to this song. Don't take girl. My wife started crying. He yelled Dad ma s crying as he laughed. Well at 23yrs old he died in a rollover car accident in St.Louis. 1 week from going to pitch with Reds winter ball. Google Dennis McRoberts. October 8th 2004. Still cry every time this song comes on. Thanks brother

That last verse applied to me in April, 2021. My girlfriend of 23 years, suffered a cardiac arrest, was revived and passed 6 days later. I begged and bartered with God for a different outcome. My heart broke when she passed. The only good thing was that I was glad that I hadn't left her alone.

I'm in tears! I have been ever since Lisa Marie Presley died & knowing she lost her son to suicide & thinking about all the Presley family is going through. Now after watching your reaction to this video by Tim McGraw #DontTakeTheGirl has got me all emotional again. I can see how lucky your wife & girls are to have a good husband & father like you & what a good person you truly are. I have enjoyed watching you & your beautiful wife react to some of my favorite country music videos. God bless you & your family!

[@CGholl]

I was in a military museum years ago and Tims song Remember Me played. I sobbed through the entire song

[@tanjadouglass6834]

These song lyrics can give you goosebumps, make you cry like a baby, reminisce about the good Ole days, and hug your loved ones tighter. So let the tears roll, there's only a few thousand people watching 😢😊

[@MatthewvMayo]

The way you reacted to the song is how we all reacted to it on the radio back when it was new. The video was the first time we had any clue that she survived.

[@Michelle_Crn]

She didn't die. She was running to them with the picnic basket at the end.

[@judygudeman8017]

I love your reactions to the songs you've never heard. It's so honest and true. You and your wife are terrific!

[@roguemerlin1969]

At the end, you missed that it was Johnny Jr and the woman running with the picnic basket was his mother, she lived.

[@jeffjeff-j6t]

Hi Sebs I seen Tim Mcgraw live in concert Long ago. We were sitting kinda far away from the front. They turned all the lights out and it was pitch black, We couldnt see more than two feet in front of us. Then we heard Tim starting to sing and they flipped the spot light to the stage and Tim was sitting on a tall stool with a guitar . like 8 feet away , We were near the end of a long stage on the side . He must have wanted to folks in the cheap seats to be stunned. Well it worked, We said to ourselves, Is that Tim there. It was the best concert Ive been to. he played this song there, It didnt hit me at all. The video makes a big difference I think . But I seen that reaction of yours to garth brooks friends in low places. That looked like a off the charts concert for sure. So I put that on my bucket list , Angelina Jordan is my next concert I want to see, Then garth . Great reaction Buddy, God Bless .

[@travisrowland3303]

I've listened to this song for decades and it still gets me every time. Truly amazing writing and something a man can relate to.

Love your reaction to this song .I love country music because it's always so about real life situations.we need to wake up to what is really going on around us so beautiful done I have been listening to country music for over 30 yrs I love it

[@stevenrogers9123]

This was a pretty early Tim McGraw song. I think it came out somewhere around 1993. Tim was one of the greats that came out somewhere around 1990. My favorite song by him has always been "Live like you were dying". Which is about his dad Tug McGraw who happened to be a MLB pitcher.

[@darrinlindsey]

Tim's first hit record was Indian Outlaw. At the end of the song, he used the chorus of a hit Pop song, from the 70s, about the plight of the American Indian (Specifically the Cherokee Indian). Tim's mother was a Cherokee. The song from the 70s was called Indian Reservation by The Raiders. Also, Tim's Dad was Tug McGraw, a former MLB pitcher that was on 2 World Series Championship teams. He had a very long, and successful career.

[@vickiewiseman7112]

Another great reaction! So glad I came across your channel last night! Love your ♥️ my friend!

[@sda6691]

The thing that people don't get about the ending of that video and the song is that she actually does live. That's his wife running toward them while he's taking his son fishing. But it is a beautiful song and it makes me tear up every single time

[@seandobson6221]

I was a teenager in the 90s when Tim hit the scene and this song broke me every time. There is so much of his music that will break your heart but lift you up.

Why do people think this is a sad song?? The wife lives at the end.. You see her running with a picnic basket. Why does everyone think she dies?

Great Reaction !! Always a joy to watch someone begin to explore Country. For me, it's been a 50 year ride, I'm 59 ! You have made the connection, Country is pen to paper, mixed with notes and melody, expressed in voice to tell about Life ! It's honest, holds integrity, expressing joy and pain, failures and victories ! The artist and listener understand each other almost instantaneously at times. You understand this connection now. Welcome !!

[@lizabeth4453]

A love song for the ages. - The video shows us she lived and they have another one (she's carrying the little one in the car seat), but the song itself leaves it to the imagination. I'll always love this song.

A lovely song by tim and his wife faith hill is “speak to a girl”. A true lesson on how a true lady likes to be spoken to and treated🌹

[@tammyderson6547]

Yes how a lady and 3 daughters deserve to be talked to,,respect or to hear their dad talk to their mother! They will want to seek a boyfriend or husband that treats them like dad does mom

[@lunarose698]

This is one of Time McGraw's best songs that has a heartwarming story to go with it.

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Tim is great. This is an oldie but a goodie. For another great song by him, which I know you will love, is 'Humble & Kind'. It has the best video, which you as an immigrant, would much appreciate. And don't worry, Mom was in the last scene, carrying the picnic basket. God is good. Also his wife Faith HIll has an amazing voice & played his wife on that show, too. They have some great duets together too. My favs are 'I need you' & 'It's your love'.

I'm 54 and it's not just "don't blink" but full your life with joy, good memories for yourself and family I wish I had more memories of joyous events with laughter and fun, unfortunately I'm stuck with all the horrible events, pain, loss, you do not know what tomorrow holds I had a stroke one day unexpectedly and have some memory loss

I think alot of people really miss the ending when Johnny's dad takes him fishing in the first verse it's Johnny, little and his dad but at the end of the video when Johnny Sr takes Johnny Jr fishing Johnny Jr's mom is running with a picnic basket to join them so she survived. The first reaction I watched from you was my all time favorite Stevie Ray Vaughan Texas Flood, I loved your reaction and when you told me about your family it is like mine. Every 4th of July we get together the Moreno's and Rodriguez eat lots of for, sing and my son plays guitar who is 14 and loves Stevie Ray Vaughan too and plays behind his head and back, his teeth and one hand, cousins 1plays drums, the other bass and a couple of us sing. It's the best time and my children and grandchildren will treasure it forever.

So, just a little more for you. 3 songs to cover quite a bit of the country genre. You need to seen Chime Bells by Elton Britt, Statue of a Fool by Brian Collins (it have been done by others, but I think his is the best) and then Toes by the Zac Brown Band.
