No one seems to get this song. It’s sung from point of view of an African American slave during the civil war, he’s asking his woman if she could run to the Lincoln soldiers (Union)... You are the first reactor I’ve seen that got it! Good job!

[@marcellagregg1694]

I agree with you. I also love the song Sticks That Made Thunder. It's an amazing story.

[@johnk275]

@@marcellagregg1694 that’s the song with the point of view of a tree that was alive during the battles of the Civil War unless I understood it wrong... nonetheless, a very good song!

[@Ed70Nova427]

Yeah! She really listened to it! I have to watch more of her video reactions. To me, this was a real reaction and not at all fake. It really surprised me when she started making that "huh" sound and I watched her and could see right away she knew what they were saying.

[@marcellagregg1694]

@@johnk275 You didn't understand it wrong. And yes, it is a very good song. Chris is an amazing story teller.

Um

[@jeremyperry9021]

Love this band! Not too many know about this band!

[@stigmajosh]

So happy she picked up the lyrics on the first listen. Not everyone does. Remember, this music is for everyone. The banjo came from Africa kids.

[@mamaalaska]

@ChrisStapleton This beautiful spirit was so moved by you and the Steeldrivers… she has been on her country journey for a little while now and I truly enjoy her perspective but more importantly I love how she loves country music so much. Her channel gives me great hope for my children who are the strong ladies age and my grandchildren as they explore all genres of music but have learned to become very discerning in what they choose to feed their spirit with. I am so grateful that she found this song and knew almost immediately the depths of the bands storytelling. I don’t know if you’ll ever see this but young man I believe it would make her feel so good to know that you reached out and acknowledged her emotional connection to this great story.

[@johnhoskins2435]

Steeldrivers w/ Chris 'Where rainbows never die' Great reaction.

[@cpprcrk1833]

Blue side of the Mountain is my favorite of theirs , but they're all great .

[@micheledash7269]

“Sticks that make thunder” is about the the civil war from the perspective of a tree!!

[@TexasMagnolia]

My favorite Steeldrivers song: If it hadn’t been for love. FYI, The Steeldrivers was Chris’ bluegrass band.

[@waynemitchel212]

Very powerful ,,, great lyrics.... great song and music.. like always from Chris Stapleton and this band.... great reaction as always ,, lovely Tasha... love your soft heart.........

[@cavecookie1]

Such a powerful song. This is one of my favorites. So many people never really listen to the lyrics, because the musicianship is is so outstanding! And, that "little guitar" is a mandolin, a standard instrument in Bluegrass music.

[@ledzep570]

This song breaks my heart as a care giver and a history teacher this song is dead on accurate I can't imagine what it was like you my dear was the only one who understood the lyrics

[@d3eztrickz]

Thanks for doing Steeldrivers!!! They have an amazing collection!

[@tammydean3003]

Sticks That Made Thunder is a great one too. This group just isn't the same without Chris now.

[@pamagnolia]

This was incredible!!! The talent in that room! Great reaction too Tasha! 😌🌹

[@TheAdventuresofTNT]

Thank you 💜

[@jasoninflagstaff]

1st "reaction" Ive seen to this song where the person actually listened to, and understood the song. 😢 Thank you..

[@montymetcalfe1982]

One of my favorite Chris Stapleton songs before anyone knew who he was. Tammy on fiddle is awesome. The message of the song is so powerful especially with what has been happening in the last year.

[@ticklicker11]

The little guitar is a mandolin. Thanks for the reaction.

[@brentpnw9091]

2:39 “Come on little guitar.” lol. That was adorable.

[@andrewbennefield529]

So appreciate that you are aware enough to understand the meaning of the song. Alot of Americans and country people are 100% in support of freedom for everyone. This should be what all true Americans have in common.

[@kevinmcneeley7340]

This song is full of goodness, and clearly you are too. I wept to see your reaction. Thank you for sharing it.

[@marcellagregg1694]

I am so glad someone has done a reaction to this song..There is another song they do called Sticks That Made Thunder. It also tells a story...I would love to have you react to that one. Chris Stapleton also was in a rock band called The Jompson Brothers. Please react to their song Invisible, On The Run and Inside Your Head..They are amazing!

[@tonyeast256]

Thank you!!! & I LOVE YOU!!!

[@bigdaddyeb56]

Beautiful Song and Beautiful Reaction ! Great Job

[@davestrong6119]

The journey of the Soul, is replete with struggle, pain, joy and freedom, regardless of race, station in life or where your roots are. Music and song are just stories about life. No one group has ever had a monopoly on suffering or the escape from bondage, often times self inflicted. Brave are the Artists in our midst who dare to sing and express the truth. We are One

[@Maydoggie]

Love ya TNT. I don't know if you are familiar with Rhiannon Giddens's music or not, but she writes many songs grounded in the history of slavery. Powerful lyrics, beautiful and powerful vocals. Whether you react to her music or not, you need to hear it. Check out her solo stuff (At the Purchasers Option) and also her album with Our Native Daughters, which is beautiful, heart-wrenching, and evocative.

[@d3eztrickz]

Hear Hear!

[@brianbrekke9500]

She has a phenomenal voice and plays that banjo claw hammer style. Check out her song Julie.

[@megankuchta9145]

You WOULD love Rhiannon Giddens. Julie is a favorite.

[@wtfesme235]

I support and endorse those statements. The music may not give you peace but it will give you beauty.

[@megarocks911]

This is so awesome, great reaction my friend ❤️☮️🔥 TaTa.

[@bhunter2408]

It’s a very powerful song! And once again Stapleton is a legend!

[@judydonaghue-staubs6890]

Love this song. I had relatives who were part of the underground railroad.

[@thomasalanjensen9375]

You should check out Tyler Childers. Especially "Nose on the Grindstone". Very moving for me. Pain is something we all feel, and I think knowing you're not alone is why sad country and bluegrass can feel good, it's like a release.

[@Van_Liberty]

The great thing about having the scales fall from your eyes is that you could spend rest of your life discovering all that you now see as new. Journey on...

[@johnparker8592]

I'm so glad that you got it.

[@slappylippy]

Loved your reaction. So rad.

[@dwain437]

Do more of the Steele drivers... you will love it ...

[@michelleedler3414]

Great band and such a powerful song

[@rogerkelly7988]

I have been a subscriber for only a short time but love your reactions to country music I have seen you cry until you ran out of tissues but that's what country music can do that it's all about the story and the music I'm old raised up in the 60s so I love classic rock but that music pretty much died around 1980 so I started started listening to country and love it but even that started to sound different in 2010 and then Chris Stapleton came along so keep up with the country journey and I'll be right there with you because there are a lot more songs and artist other than Chris who will do what country music does and that is make you cry laugh and think as they tell you a story and take you on a journey

[@karenpowell6063]

Love your reactions, always on point & intelligent

[@michaelstogsdill6989]

Superbly done reaction. Can I say how adorable it is that your interpretation of the song was astute, but confused a mandolin as a little guitar. Ya don't know what ya don't know. Nicely done Miss Tasha

[@Rocker1983]

Great song! Great Reaction!

[@martinscalf114]

What a magnificent soul she is.

[@rogerkelly7988]

Oh yeah there's always a message in a Chris Stapleton song

[@davegibson5532]

That little guitar is a mandolin young lady. :)

[@megarocks911]

I'm more of a metal head but I do like some county music, the older stuff and Chris stapleton of course.

[@nosparex]

Nice reaction! You should give Nickel Creek a shot. They're a bluegrass group that started up in the 90's. They're really a crossover band in my opinion, but they are very talented. Try "When You Come Back Down" if you're interested in giving them a try. Chris Thile even plays one of those "little guitars."

[@elihughes8330]

Chris Stapleton is was in the steelDrivers before he was famous

[@hillbillyhippie4235]

Awesome job young lady, Carolina Chocolate Drops- Leaving Eden "via liveset " is a very good

[@HardL]

Merle Haggard's "Sing Me Back Home," covered by The Flying Burrito Brothers.

[@micheledash7269]

Also the Radio Ramblers are Blue Grass and their song “some kind of War” is a great one to ponder on

[@onetruthmediacompany]

Tasha is brilliant in understanding song meaning so Is Daddy T

[@NathanThurberMusic]

Angel of the night is another good one from the SteelDrivers back when they had Stapleton.

[@MissMollyDoll311]

"The boys in gray are never far away." That's still true 😪

[@philiptaylor734]

Billy Strings - Enough to Leave.

[@kaceyteague5264]

This song is great! I had to research it and look up lyrics when I first heard it. Once I did, it became one of my fav songs. Chris has been in so many bands and groups and I’ve yet to find a bad song. Not ONE! Try out the Jepsom bros On the Run. Another damn good song. It’s more rock though.

[@scotb1520]

Letters from home, John Michael Montgomery. Talk to me, Stevie Nicks. The walk, sawyer brown. She’s everything, brad paisley.

[@robertwatson496]

Oh, I forgot a great song from the Master of Bluegrass, Bill Monroe - My Last Days on Earth. Absolutely awesome song.

[@robertwatson496]

Good pick and reaction!! Want to hear some more really good blue grass? Two of the best in my opinion are Blue Highway and The Gibson Brothers. A few starter songs for Blue Highway are Before the Cold Wind Blows, Goodbye For Awhile, Wonderous Love and Seven Sunday's in a Row. Starter songs for The Gibson Brothers are The Barn Song, The Railroad Line, One Raindrop, Whisper in My Ear and Vern's Guitar.

[@mitchellwaters0706]

Your so sweet...love you and yours...61 year old former marine from s.c..

[@wilmamills8579]

Loved your reaction. You got it. Civil war song from slaves point of view. Love it.

[@brianbrekke9500]

That 'little guitar' is a mandolin. Bill Monroe led the way in using this particular instrument. Ricky Skaggs played Bill Monroes when it went into the bludgrass hall of fame. An up and coming star mandolin player is Sierra Hull. Check out all these people.. Love Bluegrass... its America's music.

[@squirehobbs6754]

Tammy Rogers is the best the baddest sounds so sweet my favorite part of Blue Grass and country...

[@isg01010]

Bluegrass is a great rabbit hole to go down, especially progressive bluegrass or Newgrass. Sam Bush, The Travelin' McCourys, and Michael Cleveland are great places to start.

[@JTChanceA1]

Seeing that you like blue grass, you may like the Carolina Chocolate Drops.

[@Schwimzilla1122]

I really enjoy these videos. I have a lot of recommendations... first though, if you want to hear real traditional bluegrass listen to the Carolina chocolate chips. Please please check out as well: trampled by turtles, devil makes three, and greensky bluegrass. They have so many good songs but I'll make initial recommendations. For tbt, check out empire. For dmt, try North Carolina. For greensky I'll say windshield. Interesting thing about Chris Stapleton. He wrote a lot of hits performed by other artists. Kenny Chesney never wanted nothing more, Adele if it hadn't been for love. Luke Bryant drink a beer. The list goes on.

[@TexasMagnolia]

Please react: Patty Loveless - You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive.

[@ronnywestberry9503]

I am older retired . the one thing older music, from most genres, were good at was telling stories and having a message. there are some artist today that could be very good at it if they tried. the genre is not important. I think in my humble opinion the stories and message makes all the difference. it helps people to connect with the song and think about the message. that can change lives.

[@MrGWoodle]

That "little guitar" is a mandolin. Try Bobby Osborne, the Osborne Brothers, "Ruby (are you mad at your man)" or "Rocky Top"

[@lonesomeknoteye]

Your Hair is Beautifully parted🙃 I laughed hard when your right eyebrow stopped your tempo clap.🤔 Definitely a powerful song. I would recommend you check out the more independent/radical side of bluegrass they call "Folk" music. Bands like, the devil makes three, poor mans poison, Shovel and rope, all are the Jam. If you are diving deeper into blugrass id suggest, the del mccoury band,ironhorse, skaggs and 4 more of a blu..contemporary vibe the dappled grey's.

[@MizCriz46]

Yes, you are one of the few who seemed to understand. My personal interpretation is that this might specifically refer to the time between when Lincoln freed the slaves & before the war was over. When slaves ran & were caught while they were still property, they would be returned & whipped. If they ran after they were freed, they were simply hunted down & murdered. Their only chance was to reach that 'freedom line of Lincoln soldiers". Many, many died trying.

[@regs_loftus]

Love these! You should do Concrete Angel by Martina McBride (sad warning) but an amazing song and video!

[@xbecc444x]

If you're still on a country music kick, check out Carolina Chocolate Drops!!

[@mitchellwaters0706]

Think it's the best song him and them ever did...

[@scottstravelstories4981]

There is a group called Our Native Daughters. It features four Black women who all play banjo (and other instruments). They believe (I think rightfully) that country/roots/Americana, whatever you want to call it, originated with Black people. They are worth checking out. Only 1 album so far, but they all have other projects. They are - Lelya McCalla, Allison Russell, Amythyst Kiah, & the uber talented Rhiannon Giddens. I understand what you are saying as never thinking this music is for you, but I think all distinctly American music originated with Black people. For instance, the banjo is derived from the West African instrument known as the akonting and was introduced to America by enslaved people. Enjoy your journey.

[@chrisfloyd9224]

Little guitar also known as a Mandolin

[@atuuschaaw]

♥♥♥

[@chadwolf1473]

Theres not a bad song on that whole album!

[@nicholasteague9207]

That was his blue grass before he got big in country

[@jewls9697]

Please do Forgive by Rebecca Howard!!

[@carolinakeeper]

Check out Nickel Creek - a lighthouse tale. Really any song by them.

[@SueGreen-qy5bx]

Check out Rhiannon Giddens.

[@kyle-409]

I start out clapping but after a few lines I just sit thinking about the lyrics

[@brandonpresley5336]

Try Queen of the Silver Dollar by Emmylou Harris.

[@andrewbennefield529]

Yeah I watched someone else react and they thought it was a square dancing song. Missed the whole point of the song .

[@chazmiller3754]

Please please please do Dolly Parton's.( God won't get you.)

[@michaelcoffman4923]

Look into Marty Robin's, the gunfights ballads have some deep songs. For something fun look up Jonny Bush and leave my mama out of this

[@blakewestwood8096]

Please react to Dwight Yokum, I sang Dixie as he died

[@wendel5520]

Its a mandolin not a little guitar. Lo!

[@flogrownboss8051]

Can you do a reaction to Daryl Worley " I miss my friend" gotta see your reaction

[@MrDavid3571]

I love your reactions, but please stop clapping with the song.

[@blakewestwood8096]

It's her REACTION. I prefer her natural reaction however it happens
