First Time Hearing The Charlie Daniels Band - The Devil Went Down to Georgia (REACTION)

[@ememnicholas565]

We lost Charlie Daniels a few years back. He was a storyteller, a fiddle player, a patriot and a national treasure.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Sorry to hear that. Definitely will explore more of his music.

[@chrisholland6052]

Charlie didn't simply play the fiddle, he would make it stand up and dance.

[@SaeedReacts.]

This was awesome! Definitely checking out more!

[@vladyvhv9579]

Check out the Geico commercial where he takes the violin from the guy at the fancy restaurant and plays it as a fiddle.

[@coryg7051]

That's the most metal song in country history!

[@SaeedReacts.]

😄😄 Like that description!

[@GrannyMetalheadTV]

True story!

[@Laurael626]

I love this description!!! So true.

[@crazyfingers19]

Legend of Wooly(sic) Swamp is another CDB storytelling song. My favorite story song along these lines is Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Ballad of Curtis Lowe.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Will add those to my list. Thanks!

[@karenwalsh1143]

@@crazyfingers19 oh yes!

[@karenwalsh1143]

Please add "THE BALLARD OF CURTIS LOWE" By lynard skynard BUT please do the studio album version cuz those are the original band members.. don't do any live version cuz it's not the "real" lynard skynard. ​@SaeedReacts.

[@starlawilson9011]

Oh yeah, I love Curtis Lowe

[@bjspeck4337]

This is probably my favorite Southern song and nobody does that better than Charlie Daniels. He did this one in 1979 when I was 28. When Charlie Daniels died, Vince Gill sang "Go Rest High on that Mountain" for him. I was tickled when I saw you doing this one and knew you'd love it. Look up some of Jim Croce's work - Photographs and Memories, Operator, my favorite of his, Time in a Bottle, I'll Have to Say I Love You In a Song.

[@SaeedReacts.]

I loved this! So good. Thanks for the recommendations!

[@ashleydixon4613]

Who else remembers gymnast Dominique Moceanu doing her floor routine to this song in 1996 at the Olympics in Atlanta? Perfect idea-as soon as they heard the first few notes, the crowd erupted! Of course she nailed it, and was part of the Magnificent Seven, the first US gymnastics team to win team gold. ❤

[@jeffreyburley4033]

Charlie Daniels, my God rest his soul, was one unique and talented performer. He fans adored him, his music sold millions, and he was one of the best. I'm glad you enjoyed this one.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Loved this one. Will explore more of his music. Thanks for watching.

[@user-ie2hp9sl2o]

Rip Charlie we love and miss you he is a true legend and true patriot one my favorite singers

[@Acoustic_strings]

They did make him record a version with Son of a Gun because some radio stations wouldnt play it

[@vladyvhv9579]

We saw the band live in concert. He paused a moment to gague the crowd before saying the "sonnova bitch" version, and the whole place cheered.

[@michellejackson6679]

Country rap from the 70''s.. don't mess with Charlie Daniels Band.. This is iconic.. Charlie could play a fiddle.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Awesome stuff! Looking forward to more.

[@Rob-eo5ql]

The last verse is so great. It’s like, Yeah! LET’S GO!!!

[@SaeedReacts.]

100% ! So good!

[@staciemoisa4884]

I grew up listening to The Charlie Daniels Band. I was lucky enough to see him live, shredding his bow, many times.He was a great story teller, and one of my favorites was The Legend of Woolly Swamp. As a writer, I think you'll love that one.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Awesome you saw him live! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@thewindle]

Welcome to 1979. Charlie Daniels is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, this tells you why. Still played on both classic country and classic rock radio stations today. Great reaction. Charlie Daniels passed away in 2020.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Amazing song! Looking forward to explore more.

[@vladyvhv9579]

Still played on regular Country stations as well.

[@blindeyedog01]

Ole Charlie made most his living doing gospel music. I met the keyboard player one cold night in Wisconsin, he was a really nice guy. ❤❤

[@heidifruchtl354]

If you don't know the difference between a violin and a fiddle, a violin has strings, and a fiddle has strangs. Rip Charlie. He is a true genius. This was released before the first official rap song. Charlie wasn't truly country, he was able to cross into several different genres. Same as Dolly. Check out her collaboration with PTX on Jolene.

[@SaeedReacts.]

I knew the name fiddle, but never really knew what it was and how it sounded. Thanks so much for sharing this info! I checked out that collaboration. Should be in the Pentatonix reactions playlist.

[@heidifruchtl354]

@SaeedReacts. Dolly is an absolute gem. My dad, who played violin as a child, and his 2 younger grandchildren also played. He told me about a late night show where the host had Charlie and some famous violisnist who made some comment that Charlie couldn't play "real" music, so Charlie picked up his fiddle and played a famous classic piece, no music sheets around. I have spent hours trying to find it. Dad couldn't remember which show, and he passed away, so I can't ask. Charlie doesn't really fit into any specific genre. But his storytelling ability. He passed away in 2020. He was a great entertainmer. There is a sequel to this song, with several other artists. It's called the devil went back to Georgia. Enjoy!

[@vladyvhv9579]

Fiddle and violin are the same instrument, physically. It's just tuned differently and fiddle music tends to be much more energetic and fast-paced, while violin is more slow and somber. My grandpa played fiddle and gave his to my uncle's wife when they married. For many years, she played it as violin in her church's orchestra.

[@AnjeannetteMarie]

This was the first rap I ever heard 🤘

[@SaeedReacts.]

So good!

[@vladyvhv9579]

Rap wishes it could be as cool as Charlie Daniels.

[@pjb3583]

I learned the lyrics to this when it first came out - and I can still sing along! You’ll find some of the best storytellers in country music, and also some absolutely fabulous musicians. What comes to mind is Harper Valley PTA, Sunday Morning Coming Down and He Stopped Loving Her Today as far as story songs. I’m sure others, who know country music much better than I do, will have other examples. Love this song and loved your reaction to it. Peace …

[@SaeedReacts.]

Its amazing how lyrics stay with us throughout the years. Thanks for watching and the recommendations!

[@legionaireb]

One I've always loved is 'She's In Love with the Boy.' The last verse always gets to me. Then on the other end of the emotional scale there's 'Third Rock from the Sun.'

[@lornehulett7702]

Many years later, Charlie Daniels did a follow up to this song with Travis Tritt, Johnny Cash, Marty Stuart and Mark O'Connor. O'Connor plays the fiddle for "Johnny". Excellent song.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks for letting me know about that!

[@terryconnelly484]

Thank you very much.I put that on every reaction

[@debbie9021]

The name of the song is The Devil went back to Georgia

[@vladyvhv9579]

It took me a couple of decades to track down a copy of Mark's "Heroes" album, but it was worth it for that song.

[@ericgaudet5488]

There will never be anyone that can back a viddle sound like metal and country like Mr Charlie Daniels he was one of a kind and his type of music will never die & never be copy .

[@Dandee268]

I've always loved this song growing up. I miss having fiddles and steel guitars in a lot of today's country music.

[@vladyvhv9579]

Check and see if the local stations have means of weighing in on what they play. Cause there's still a lot of country that's got that. Particularly in the Red Dirt sub-genera, which is getting back more to the 70s-early 90s feel.

[@trevalarose8155]

There is a classical violin piece called " Devil's Trill" and I wonder if it influenced this masterpiece. Still in Saigon" is a great Charlie Daniels song as well. More of a rocker.

[@angelaolson2025]

[@deborahvernarelli6394]

Hello, Saeed. I don't know how I missed this reaction. It didn't show up on my notifications. I just ran across it today on my home page of KZbin, lol. I'm so glad I did. Charley Daniel's was a great storyteller, and this song will get you shaking your head and dancing in your chair. Charley once said "The difference between a Fiddle and a Violin is a Violin has strings..a Fiddle has strangs" just a different accent for the same instrument that he could play the heck out of. So glad you reacted to it and enjoyed a legend. May he rest in peace. Thank you and enjoy your day. ❤😊

[@SaeedReacts.]

Its an amazing song. I just checked out the sequel to this one. The Devil Came Back to Georgia. Amazing storytelling. Thanks so much for watching!

[@user-br3sb9mo8i]

This was such an amazing reaction! This was also my first time watching your channel and you’re wonderful. As a writer myself, I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it at 6 years old, sitting in the backseat of an old car on my way to grandmas house. I hung on every word, I was wrapt within the story like I was right there watching it - but I was super worried for Johnny because I kinda thought the Devil wiped the floor with him at the time 😂 it’s a moment I’ll never forget - and watching you have a very similar experience not only made my day, but it made me feel all warm and nice inside. Thank you so so much for sharing this with all of us and for making my day way better. Absolutely subscribing, of course 😊

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks so much for this comment. It brought a smile to my face 😃 I can relate to the feeling of falling in love with a great story and being inspired by it. This song is a masterclass in storytelling. Great concept and amazing execution. Thanks so much for subscribing!

[@brendasorenson6186]

I remember when this was first played on the radio. We always listened closely, just in case the DJ played the "real" instead of the sanitized version. (SOB instead of son of a gun. It was the late 1970s, when bad words were a rarity on the radio.)

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks for sharing! Love that! I probably would have done the same 😄

[@karenwalsh1143]

@willieboy3011 Yeah, I don't think your "left" comments were necessary. My son in law is in the Air Force and my daughter is a veteran. Both are left and have signed on that dotted line to give everything for this country.

[@willieboy3011]

@@kanditraxel I am stating facts. Vietnam veterans were treated badly by the left. Many veterans were spit upon and called baby killers by leftists. Journalist Bob Greene documented many Vietnam Veteran's experiences about this in his book "Homecoming." Jane Fonda flew over to socialize with the very enemy NVA who was fighting our soldiers. This is documented. Look it up. Many of the leftist students wore Communist dictator's t shirts in support of the enemy: Mao, Ho Chi Ming, Che, etc. I was around then and saw this. Check it out for yourself. I too signed on that dotted line to support America, not her enemies.

Way back when there was a black man named Robert Johnson who wanted to be a great blues musician but was just no good at all. He disappeared for 2 years and when he reappeared he turned out to be the best blues musician there ever was. He died at 27 and was the first member of the infamous 27 club. Legend says he made a deal with the devil at a crossroads. There is a movie called Crossroads that is based on this story. Check it out

[@sandyleewhite]

Outlaw Country at it's best!!! For me, it's hard to put the Charlie Daniels Band in a genre, but what comes to mind is, Blue Grass, country, Appalachia folk, etc. A blend of mountain music, which takes its inspirations from Irish, Scottish, and American folk and blends them all to make this amazing music 😊.(((Luv your reactions)))

I was raised in North Florida and Southern Georgia at different times and a short stay in Louisiana..so fiddles were used in a lot of music..in fact in 5th grade my teacher asked if I could join the music group after hearing me tickle the ivories during a reccess break...well pianos were out of our financial budget so dad got me a violin 😮...as we were in a home with multiple family relatives..my learning violin wasn't their cup of tea..the next year dad let music class slip 😄...then the following year he got me a second (or third) hand piano after we moved to our own private home... Since my short stint with a stringed instrument.. I can well appreciate Charlie's gift with the bow...good on you for adding this legend to your catalog... If you're looking for stories try this fella..Sir Tom Jones..yes knighted by Queen Elizabeth..and if you do listen I would recommend them in this order to hear the trifecta unfold... 💥... I'll Never Fall In Love Again 💥...I Who Have Nothing 💥... Delilah Basically I would call him a crooner in his most powerful songs but the number of writers that brought their works to him created a large and complex catalog so beyond these 3 you'll hear a wide variety..and he even had a Variety Show in his name..This Is Tom Jones... So please consider adding him to your list if you haven't heard him..the first live from the Ed Sullivan Show and the next 2 from his show if I remember correctly...I didn't see him in your playlist..and DO these 3 in order 🙏..lol...

For something very different that falls into the story telling world I recommend Home Free's Man of Constant Sorrow.

[@SaeedReacts.]

I reacted to that one! It was pretty early in my journey on this channel. Should be in the Home Free reactions playlist.

Ha, ha...Beat the Devil at his own game and he had to pay up..I'll bet he'll be sore about it for eternity. I like how the "Devil solo ended with sounding like a body being dragged down to hell...But Johnny's was pure-S*&%-Kicking, Foot Stompin, Good Time Fiddle playing, and the Red Face SOB knew it, too.

Awesome story!

If you like story telling songs, check out Believe-Brooks And Dunn. My Father My Son The Holy Ghost-Crieg Morgan, Arlington-Trace Adkins just to name a few.

Thanks for the recommendations

Check out Chris Stapleton the song "Cold". Great song.

[@SaeedReacts.]

I did! This was super early in my channel. I started my Chris Stapleton journey with Tennessee Whiskey. And now the chorus of Cold has been in my head ever since 😄. There is a playlist of Chris Stapleton reactions on the channel. Most of them were recorded before I upgraded my equipment and i probably wasnt very good at reacting (not that i am now 😅)

If you like the story, you should do "Uneasy Rider".

[@SaeedReacts.]

Will check it out!

I’m new here but if no one has mentioned Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers…allow me to suggest well anything by them! Tom was one of the best story tellers ever! 😊❤🎩🎸

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks for the recommendation!

@@SaeedReacts. you should try the video for Into the Great Wide Open Johnny Depp is in it great video and song!

[@mikem8157]

Loved your reaction to how you took the story and went from there. I don't think Johnny cared about the gold, he just wanted to be the best. I saw them at the university I went to in Southern Illinois in the early 80's. It was awesome

[@SaeedReacts.]

So cool you saw them live. This song is so good!
