CHRIS STAPLETON - EITHER WAY - THIS SH.. WAS HEAVY, SHEESH! - SANG'N SUNDAYS

[@shueevon]

This man (Chris) has to be protected. We need him to write and sing for the next forty years or so.

[@LadyGator1983]

Amen to that!!!!

[@tylerlamb3857]

Definitely one of the best songwriters

[@marybethmilam9848]

One of the best songwriters & master vocal artist!

[@KYDRIVER1]

Yes sir! If you ever get a chance, see him in concert. Him and Morgane are incredible live. I’ve seen him twice and was looking at some more tickets today.

[@claramckenzie6558]

Iktright!!!

[@bubweirich8052]

I’m a 6’1 220 lb man that’s been hardened and ground down over the last 40ish years ... but I cry some real tears listening to this man -Chris Stapleton- ! Cause these eyes , ears & intuition can FEEL what’s real !!! This man is something special & I know we all can FEEL IT. MUCH LOVE • LOVE YA’LL

[@txtamaman]

I'm 52 and I'm right there with you.. life has been so rough... much love and respect my brother

[@johnnytucker6709]

I’m 6’0” 220 so I guess I’m a little fatter lol But yeah CS is the truth

[@yamac488]

@@txtamamanyeah, but we still need to know how tall you are and how much you weigh

[@lindawilliams2211]

He was a song writer in Nashville for Yrs. Many have number 1 hits from him. After his father passed his girlfriend, now wife and backup singer, talked him into recording his own songs. The rest is history. They now have 5 kids and about his 4th number 1 album. He is great. His guitar is like another voice.

[@tpburke20]

A must and I mean a must for the very deep lyrics and vocals is Whiskey and You..Chris Stapleton. “I drink because I’m lonesome and I’m lonesome cause I drink” so deep.

[@brandonhogsten3352]

I appreciate the hell out of the fact that you actually care about lyrics in songs. Most reactors just fake being excited and animated, and mostly ignore what is being said. Great job.

[@anniem4026]

You can't lose with Chris, you still need to listen to "Whiskey and You" my favorite song.

[@adamw4020]

That song is is amazing. One of my favorites.

[@tonyc7831]

The live version

[@lauradehart8182]

Yes Stevie!! “Whiskey and You”!! MOST DEFINITELY!! 🔥🔥🔥👍🏻

[@nointrocrowe4130]

Broken halos

[@thedadbodangler7784]

Same

[@societaljokester8823]

FIRE AWAY!! You really need to do FIRE AWAY! He goes hard!

[@williamwalker3874]

Factss

[@richardwaters554]

Yessir!

[@jeffbarnes19fg76]

Great call. The song is incredible but the video will get you in the gut and make you not take notice to the incredible voice. He should do a reaction to the song and then the video. Great suggestion

[@BuffaloC305]

And do the VIDEO - the commercialized video FIRST. You can see his live versions later... but for once, I recommend the Commercial Video. One good reason for this recommendation: he was instrumental in 'writing' the video's plot - it was in his mind when he wrote this song, and translating his vision into our visuals 'just had to be'. So yes, what the commercial video and treat yourself to a whole new level of Stapleton's artistry.

[@spbaldwin]

Yes!

[@jimmydean7219]

I love how Chris’s real ass lyrics always get you talking about real ass shit

[@cesheph]

The fact that Chris writes and sings like this. No one can compare. The lyrics in this song are BARS I have a feeling that you will be replaying this song for a long time.

[@HottyToddy1984]

This is a cover of Lee Ann Womack’s song. Edit::: I never realized it until now, but Chris wrote the song and was actually the backup singer on the original recording by Womack.

[@cesheph]

@@HottyToddy1984 yes he wrote hundreds and hundreds of songs. He didn't think he had a good voice 🤯🤯🤯 so he only wrote them. Until his wife convinced him he could be a front man singer he was in the background. Go check out his lists of songwriting credits you will be shocked 😲

[@cyngrisham2247]

Totally relate to this song. 30 years later, called it quits.

[@keithmorgan742]

I'm with you. I spent 20 years faking happiness. We finally called it quits, and it hurt for a long time, but slowly, everything in my life became so much better.

[@nicoledestefano4716]

I was in a relationship just like this. This would be me singing most of this. And he would be singing the line “and I won’t love you either way!” I finally walked away and found the best man to ever happen to me! This song is legit and people live like this all the time.

[@aggiemomcarver8952]

More people than you know😕

[@lindanorris2455]

ME TOO FOR 24 YEARS.

[@Green-px4gg]

I’ve never laughed so hard at a reaction lol “with that voice she ain’t goin nowhere”

[@SchreeSR]

Chris Stapleton is the country male version of Whitney imo. Both have/had God given talent. As far as male artists, he’s up there with Luther, Teddy, and Donnie Hathaway. I am so glad he started singing instead of just writing for other artists!

[@dixiereinhardt3949]

The simplicity of the arrangement only underscrores the pain of love broken. Haunting!

[@kahla3363]

"Who can relate?" 🙋🏼‍♀️ I'm pushing 40 now. Starting completely over after 20 years with my son's father. 10 years of that was spent just like this song. I finally got to the point where I just didn't care anymore. I wasted so many years, not just of mine, but his too. I thought if I couldn't make it work, then I was a failure. That was selfish, & it took me a long time to realize that (too long). So, i can relate to this 100%.

[@adventurepassport6436]

As a father when you have children it is to hard to walk away. This song is my life.

[@williammcleod192]

exactly what I was saying to my puter screen...easy to say...hard to do sometimes.

[@sharcrum]

I understand that. I was there once. Painful place.

[@txtamaman]

I watched my ex walk out with my 2 year old son about 10 years ago..it hurt so much.. lost her and my son... she is great to our son and I didn't have the money fight in court

[@njones0100]

Hope that things have gotten better. This comment hits home for me since my parent's stayed together for the kids but they were both miserable and made everyone in their radius miserable. It would be much better to have parents that have both moved on into happier, healthier relationships. All kids learn from parents who aren't happy is what a dysfunctional relationship looks like, and the justification and coping mechanisms that you use to stay in it. If you have to stay together due to finances or whatever, only focus on giving whatever you can at every small opportunity. It's painful and it's hard not to feel resentful when it's not reciprocated, but the only love we keep is the love we give away. You can give your kids half an example of functional relationship for your kids.

[@ChrisHart78]

Stapleton is the real deal. No doubt. Check out his song, "Whiskey & You". Totally different vibe, same great vocals, and a lyrical masterpiece.

[@adamw4020]

This song hits ya right in the gut.

[@markstelle9402]

This man's voice makes me reminisce and makes me want to cry

[@ohp523]

Just bc I watch enough to know this will hit your feels. “Maggie’s song” Chris Stapleton

[@LadyGator1983]

I love his voice, but I have to listen to him sing the song I’m realizing just how talented he is vocally and writing songs. The man can write a song! His song daddy don’t pray anymore was introduced to be the week my daddy died. We ended up playing that song at my Daddy’s Funeral. Chris Stapleton is God send!!!

[@cesheph]

The lyrics in this song are gut wrenching He is an amazing writer ❤ Thank you for looking up that lyric. It was very important. And most miss that line it changes everything

[@tonyfro23]

Amen

[@claramckenzie6558]

The state of mind it took to write these lyrics....DAMMM

[@theb-show2702]

Vocals are defo for Sundays, it's just a chilled vibe.. It's effortless for Chris 🔥🔥

[@Jake21128]

Could tell from the beginning that Stevie was in the perfect mood for some Stapleton. Keep reacting to him, Ik you’ve done a lot in the past but honestly as big of a hip hop fan as I am, I think these are stevies best reactions. Even better than all his Em Reactions.

[@fk3582]

One of my favorites from him is "Amanda". Such a good song

[@thenovelme]

Dude! That line about the girl staying because of the vocals... that had me cracking up. I’ve been saying that Chris is invited to every cookout everywhere, and he don’t have to bring nothing, doesn’t have to play spades, don’t even have to eat the potato salad... just one song and he’s good.

[@ginger7044]

😂

[@aletheakirk2111]

I'm in this exact position. It's so incredibly hard to be the one to put an end the toxicity by leaving. I really needed to hear this tonight.

[@JustInOutDoors78]

I hope you found the strength to search for peace...and I pray that you find it. ❤

[@jld4870]

Pray you both find peace…long ways from the trauma and toxicity!

[@Kim.Miller]

Hope you're in a better place these days.

[@franksinatraiv2006]

Stevie knight, never change my man

[@northernmiteryx1193]

Knew you’d love this one. Don’t care what anyone says I think this is his best song as an entirety. Lyrics sound and vocals are top notch.

[@Xion-Rotti]

Can't even argue with you. But I'll tell you what, on the happy side I think Starting Over is up there too. I love his and Morgane's vocals together on that song.

[@nickyrivera2398]

Too many people need to hear what you preach here! #selfworth #onelove

[@garnetmatchett4244]

Dude is a BEAST.

[@indianboy72]

That man touched your soul. That’s why you sang... he is amazing.

[@bubweirich8052]

TRUTH. 🥲 Mr Stapleton has touched us all and ultimately found a way to bring US ALL together.

[@UncleRandy73]

We asked him about this and he answered us on Twitter.. “Won’t love you either way” is the lyric.

[@monicabrown6515]

Love this reaction and you actually get the lyrics. I have watched several reactions that think he is saying "I WILL love you either way"..nope WON'T changes the whole song..♥️

[@evilfantasy69]

Damn man this song set you OFF. Feels like you needed this. Great reaction.

[@evilfantasy69]

What benefit do you get from running a parody Chris Stapleton account?

[@LadyGator1983]

These lyrics are freaking DEEP!!!

[@lynndavison5805]

Love Chris Stapleton but I also love you. For a young man you have a very wise head on your shoulders. I wish I’d been as wise in my youth. Much love from England. ❤❤❤

[@TheMusicRemains]

One of my fav Chris Stapleton songs! So glad you reacted to this!

[@tbilly6201]

Yes Stevie! I need to send this to my daughter! She has her self locked into a wrong place.

[@donnaewe3692]

When it's a gloomy day & I'm feelin down, i sometimes re-watch your older music reactions like these. Then, I smile. 😊 Thank you ❤️‍🔥

[@mr.haynes965]

I've been watching for a while...I'm a big hip hop fan but also a fan of a lot of different music...this is one of my favorite Chris Stapleton songs...I listen to it atleast once or twice a week...I'm glad you did this one

[@elizabethturner8175]

I’ve been looking for a reaction to this song and you’re the only one I’ve found that has done it. My favorite Chris Stapleton song. His voice on this track is incredible.

[@TobezMcGobez]

I can't listen to this song and not tear up. I've lived this exact relationship. It was the hardest point of my life and I wish I had this song at the time so I could have gotten out sooner. But this is an amazing song. I also wish I had your motivational speech as well.

[@michaelkinney9765]

Damn Stevie knight is just dumping knowledge some wisdom on y'all. Bars.

[@kristyshortridge4968]

Song gave me chills. Hit too close to home. Just went thru this exactly. Chris is an American treasure, even when you hear a song that feels like it's being sung about you. Great reaction

[@mirtieraczo5842]

I've watched this reaction several times. It's one of my favorites because of the way you brake it down and the advice you give. Man, I wish there could've been a Luther Vandross/Chris Stapleton collaboration! It would've been FIRE! Anyway, excellent reaction.

[@gwenmarie7311]

It’s a true song 🎶 And I been there, I was done ✅ Exactly it’s a true song. I Fix it And we parted. It’s been 19 years ago. So yes I can relate to this song 🎶. Great Job Chris 💯💯💯💯👍🏾👍🏾

[@BuffaloC305]

"He's about to knock my...head off..." No truer words were ever spoken. I wish there were warnings to these videos like: "Have the lyrics in front of you."

[@luckyvet7980]

I've spent a couple years of my life trying to hold on for the kids. I realized it was worse for them, if we kept up the charade. I've been numb. In that case you truly feel nothing.

[@HottyToddy1984]

I know what you mean. It’s just hard to pull that trigger knowing she will get custody. Love waking up to my babies every day.

[@gregkleinfall1901]

I love all of Chris' music, but this is my favorite song of his. I know that the message is rough, but it just hits the heart so hard that it moves me. As soon as I hear this song, it stops me in my tracks. It is that powerful. I have been in love and married to the most beautiful woman imaginable for going on 40 years and the thought of somehow losing that love is beyond heartbreaking. The lyrics, along with his vocals, tear at the heart and punch you right in the gut. I don't want to think of what may have inspired him to write it.

[@Onetigerl]

What is it about this man's voice. The tone, the breaks, those little inflections, the emotion? Damn, but the combination of all those qualities gets me. I've got all his solo albums and have listened to every song and it's always the same, I'm transported. His voice goes straight to my soul, and takes me on a journey..

[@tracyallshouse2730]

I absolutely love the fact you don't hold back, you say it what it is. You are amazing!

[@NOIRAAG]

yo on the real, I heard this track for the first time in the car driving to meet up with a homie. I had a little cry alone before I went inside their house. THIS HIT HARD! I just got out of a 5 year relationship where I felt the same. Damn. Damn. Damn. This is gnarly as hell. Glad you got to peep it.

[@lindanorris2455]

CHRIS STAPLETON TEARS YOUR HEAT .......OUT WITH HIS SONGS. AND WITH VOICE.

[@matthewross4482]

Love your hip hop reactions, but I also love it when you do Chris Stapleton!

[@SuperFlowback]

Years after listening to Chris Stapleton for the first time and he still gives me chills. He’s hands down the best singer around nowadays and definitely top 10 of all time

[@jimcarriesa1911]

Truth is spoken on Sundays.

[@charlesroberts8838]

Favorite song by him. Thanks for doing this reaction

[@NathanLucas-l5i]

Imagine watching and reacting to Chris Stapleton 2017. And realizing that is better than anything Rap you have reacted to for 7 years

[@macbonelli2609]

You lay it out there… you speak your truth. That is why I admire your reactions. Thank you and keep the reactions coming.

[@lindapowers8592]

I can relate to everything Chris sings. He touches your spot and takes you there where’s that is🔥 GOAT 🐐 Have you reacted to his song Cold? It gives me emotional chills 🥶

[@cesheph]

Yes! Thank you 😊 💓 been asking for this song for a year! And its here! Thank you Stevie

[@kellyleath1124]

Dudes voice is other worldly. I love watching your reactions to him. Keep em coming!

[@erasus0307]

You know a song speaks to your soul when you know the word. Having never heard the song before.

[@karentaylor1923]

COLD. Every time I hear it I get chills and a little tear in the eye.

[@ajdavis6661]

Got my sub. I've been exactly where this song is talking about. Just left back in June. Had no idea how far gone I was emotionally. Thank you for doing this.

[@amariea03]

Stevie, I stumbled across you channel a week or so ago. The first video of yours I saw was a reaction to Eminem's Goodzilla, and this Chris Stapleton reaction is the latest. I just want to say I love your enthusiasm for music period. It doesn't matter what genre or style, the joy you get out of listening to and then breaking down hasn't gotten old. You bring a genuine smile to my face every time.

[@marcellagregg1694]

You really need to check out a song he did when he was with The Jompson Brothers. It's called On The Run and another one of my favorites is called Invisible. It's his old rock band. He is fantastic in everything he does.

[@d.r.eisenbarth1032]

Finally someone really got the point of this song - totally appreciated your comments and speaking to the reality of what Chris is singing vs just being impressed by his ability to sing something so f**ked up in such an excellent way

[@margiemcpeak9304]

💯 I've lived thru it, too. I'd rather be miserable alone than stay with someone who MAKES my life that way. Some shit just isn't worth it! Thanks Stevie & Chris Stapleton!

[@sportsbythewoodssportsbyth7648]

The song is fire. Chris Stapleton is another level. Stevie Knight's reaction hits different. Best reaction ever

[@shueevon]

Sang Stevie! Let it out!!

[@singingmizv1173]

Kendall Marvell ( Southern Illinois native ) wrote this years ago. Lee Ann Womack sang it. Great remake. Cheers 🎶

[@CrashCourseFarm]

SK ... I keep posting it and one day you will find it (❤) ... Chris had an older song (before he went main stream) called FOOL ME AGAIN ... THE VOCALS ... insane ... and he doesn't even break a sweat .... would love to see you react... it's the one song I have on loop !!

[@nadiagardencounty9371]

Oooh, my skin hurts from goosebumps! Absolutely perfect reaction. Thank you!

[@ericharrower207]

Stevie is a genuinely good dude. Appreciate your videos man.

[@karenwalsh1143]

we all should take a advantage of seeing him live while we get the chance to!

[@shanehenderson630]

With Chris Stapleton! You could literally throw a dart at a list of his songs and not once be disappointed

[@brendancurtis2478]

This song is 🔥🔥🔥 Simple yet powerful as hell. Both emotionally and vocally. Chris is that dude!

[@YouTubeBinging]

By far my favorite reaction of yours by a lightyear. You hit every reaction note possible. You picked up on stuff I didn't think about. I'm gonna stop talking. This reaction is Emmy worthy 🤣.

[@jacqueline1099]

Steve.. I love the way you break down the lyrics and explain how you would handle these situations and maybe how we should too

[@chuckybeastly3600]

I heard "Tennessee Whiskey" and been sleeping on my man since. Thanks for putting me back up on a hell of an artist! Gonna go download some albums...

[@adolpholiverbush2]

This song hits hard if you've ever been here. Sometimes, shit goes sideways. Sometimes, feelings change. Sometimes, it isn't anything huge, it just dissolves. I feel this song right now, and have for some time.

[@bryanmyers3896]

Great reaction. Chris is a 🐐 for sure.

[@joesmith3098]

As much as any reason I like Chris vocals obviously etc. I really think his writing stands out. This is as real as shit gets. I would bet most ppl have experienced this first hand or possibly with their own damn parents. Stevie us right, don't do it but it's not always that easy!

[@conniecorson]

Great reaction thank you and thank you Chris for your amazing soulful singing!❤

[@LeePayne2310]

I listen to this song, then when I think about leaving...I listen to "I was wrong" and then I happily stay put...the grass isn't always greener.

[@selenachronister9642]

This is one of my favorite songs of all time and I've watched tons of reaction videos but this has got to be the best.

[@kerrymize6188]

I’m 2 years late to your channel and this reaction, but man, you FEEL this. Will and Won’t does change this song so much and I’ve seen channels that thought it was Will and ruined it. Great reaction brother. Go shine!

[@hannah3250]

My ex husband basically said this to me, I decided to let him go. I loved him so much but he was a mess, confused and wreck inside. It hurt so bad but there was nothing I could do. We tried everything. It’s strange because he would call me when he was struggling afterwards, I don’t know why. I’ve moved on since then and never thought I could feel so loved and wanted because of the hurt, I thought I was unlovable but now I know he just didn’t love himself so he couldn’t love me, he had nothing to give. I want my ex to be whole and have peace... I pray for him all the time. This song brought back some 13 years ago feelings. Nobody wants to feel like that. Ugh. 😢💔

[@jld4870]

Prayers for both of you to be whole..❤️❤️❤️

[@Ms2cents]

Girl, that’s deep! I felt your pain when I read your piece. It’s like you can’t love anyone until you learn to love yourself first. Sometimes things happen for a reason. It may hurt so much that you ask yourself is it my fault? Glad you saw that it’s not your fault and you realized that you can love again and deserved to be loved. I hope also that he gets counseling and feel better so he can move on too and love again.

[@MDG_TX]

From NF to Chris, always 🔥! Happy Sunday!

[@DanielSanchez-nl3th]

Dame Man!!!!! That man can sing

[@biggs8021]

Steel drivers - where rainbows never die. One of my favorites, Chris's message is amazing. Great song by them

Very true this song hit me hard, great reaction and your thoughts are on point too

Saddest song I ever heard,and I'm living it...Thanks for the pep talk Stevie.😣💔
