I thought this song had a very interesting story to it and the simple groove and tempo fitted well with the theme because you could just rock to it and his voice kinda sang it in like a bit of a lullaby fashion to me which was cool.

Turtles all the way down is a reference to the old legend that the universe sits on the back of a giant turtle floating through the cosmos,while he makes that reference the song its self is about psydelic drug use.In other words he's tripping balls.

[@randyreynolds6508]

William Johnson. your turtle statement is correct. the rest of your story is wrong. the song is about all theories on life . he is saying I'm the end love is all that matters. heard it from his own mouth in the Joe rogan podcast . turtles all the way down is another life theory as others like christianianty Buddhism. etc.. no attitude in this comment ..just letting you know bro

[@hd95]

Basically meaning that no one knows what existence is all about. That an infinite stack of turtles is as good any explanation.

[@jonny2tone59]

the specific quote, " It's turtles all the way down the line." is a joke made in the book by Stephen Hawking, a brief history of time. you guys are still correct in everything you said, but Sturgill's first encounter with the saying was in Hawking's book.

[@Dallasworley333]

Turtles all the way down is a reference to a story Sturgill told once on JRE: Sturgill was attending some type of lecture about the structure of the cosmos or something along those lines, and at some pint a lady stood up and said basically that there’s no way any of this is true because as a Native American legend states, we’re all just riding around on the back of a large turtle. The lecturer, or whoever was leading the discussion, in an attempt to show what a silly idea that was then asked, “Well, what’s the turtle riding on?” The lady responded, “It’s turtles all the way down” It’s meant to point out the absurdity of fundamental religious belief and how pointless it can be to try to change the mind of someone so invested in maintaining those beliefs however absurd.

[@JRRobin]

When I was a kid I heard the description of a flat Earth on top of infinite turtles attributed to medieval Catholicism but I guess it does make more sense to be a native american image. Either way it always made me feel like, no matter how deep we go into understanding life and nature, there will always be some left to the unknown

[@acetate909]

Actually the real mythology is that the Earth rests on the back of a turtle and that turtle rests on the back of a larger turtle and so on forever. The concept is refereed to as infinite regress.

[@AnonYmous-xp1ym]

Three things: Sturgill didn't originate the saying, the World Turtle is a part of many cultures (not just Native American), and the saying doesn't actually come from the World Turtle myth directly. I think Carl Sagan told the story originally, but I could be wrong. It is an old story though. Basically it's as Michael Worley told it. As far as I know, the World Turtle myth does not say what the World Turtle is standing on, if anything.

[@chalupanotomatoes9609]

[@sumnerhayes3411]

It was Bertrand Russell who told that story about one of his lectures. Sturgell is referencing that.

Just found this channel. Love what y’all are doing, and I love the diversity of genres. DMT is specifically what Sturg is talking about when he mentions chemicals that we all make in our brain. It’s also how he saw reptile aliens made of light that cut you open and tear out all your pain.

It's reference to a philosophical discussion. Some people believe that Earth is built on the back of a turtle. A student asks his professor "well what's under the turtle?" And he tells him that it's turtles all the way down.

"Turtles all the way down" is an expression of the problem of infinite regress. The saying alludes to the mythological idea of a World Turtle that supports the earth on its back.

[@HYPERBOWLER]

He’s referencing DMT. It’s found throughout your body and in a wide varieties of plants across the world. Upon doing it, you realize that there is something more than can be explained. Also if there is not something more than can be explained, then it doesn’t make the trip worth while.

To give some perspective. My father had committed suicide 5 years ago. The aftershock almost ruined my life. I was on hard drugs and on the verge of suicide.

The line "Tell me how you make illegal Something that we all make in our brain" Is a reference to free will, not drugs. In other lines to the song Simpson elaborates that drugs can be the metaphorical key to unlocking your mind, self awareness, empathy, and self actualization. Which is why he ends his song stating "So don't waste your mind on nursery rhymes Or fairy tales of blood and wine" Because to him the real miracle lies within ourselves, in our minds, and the beauty of life all around us. Not in any particular religion, and that's how it's always been "It's turtles all the way down the line" And always will be

Great reaction guys as always, pretty sure the songs about some psychedelic trip he had in the past, which probably explains all the crazy imagery he’s singing about.

[@tgs40]

Haha, I've been listening to this song on repeat for the last 3 days.

[@BigRedSpear]

You guys are the Kings of the music reaction space. You’ve been on another level with it since the beginning. I wish I had a friend I could talk to about music like you guys do. I admit to talking “with” you when watching your videos 😂. I’ll probably be the last person to cancel my Patreon. Peace and happiness to you both.

Please react to Sturgill Simpson- it ain't all flowers

[@leeanngo24]

Jacob Meier the first time I heard it ain’t all flowers I was driving in the middle of the night alone. I just about shit myself & died. 😂 But it is an awesome song

[@jerrysalmon7875]

Sturgill Simpson is the shit! His style on this album is almost prog-country I don't really know how to describe it. Good stuff!

[@ramiehorner183]

Jerry Salmon all 3 of his albums are good and available on Amazon music

Love this song, love everything you guys do. Watching you guys struggle with the message and then realize what it was about 2/3 through was so much fun. If you watch the video for the song, you would get it 30 seconds in. “Turtles all the way down” is a reference to Steven Hawking quote from his book “brief history of time.” You came pretty close to the meaning, because it is referencing an old women’s reaction to a speakers explanation of space and time. Her response was “everything you have said today was rubbish, we all know that the universe is just the earth on top of a turtle.” The speaker responds “ok, but what is the turtle standing on” her response “very clever young man, but we all know it is turtles all the way down!” Of course the speaker is speechless, how can you respond to a belief like that.

[@robbooth7904]

Having listened to Sturgill, when he" looks into the eyes of his best friend", references to his grandfather.

Great song. "Repugnant is a Creature who would squander the ability To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here...”

[@splattmastere]

REFLECTION

[@rk2331]

I’d love to see you guys react to Avett Brothers “No Hard Feelings”

[@respawndenied]

I think you guys are learning how to country-western because you nailed it! Keep it up guys!

[@Gibson1961SG]

You guys need to do some of the classic outlaw country stars like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and the like. I personally recommend 25 minutes to go by Cash. Thanks for another hitter, fellahs!

[@jeffisraw2000]

React to Cody Jinks!!

[@mu6best]

"the lion's den" is an ooollllddd metaphor for the womb

[@jwbland8375]

mu6best it’s a metaphor for going through dangerous, hard, life changing situations and coming out “rebirthed” with a new perspective.

[@evanbrown6171]

You guys need to watch The Joe Rogan Experience with Sturgill Simpson. He explains everything you are asking about and it's a really good interview/podcast.
