UK REACTION to TYLER CHILDERS - FOLLOW YOU TO VIRGIE!! | The 94 Club | TYLER TUESDAYS

[@duckispve5283]

I have heard this song 100 times now. I can barely get through without crying still…

[@TheTrevorBrady]

This song always reminds me of my grandmother from West Virginia. Brings tears to my eyes every time.

[@jericcheney521]

from cross da river huh ? Well you'ns is moutain folk too !

[@garretcook2371]

My grandpa the same

[@USMCTop13]

I’m from his neck of the woods. My grandmother was born and raised in Virgie, KY. She’s buried on Island Creek in Pikeville. Miss her every day!

[@johendren8893]

My grandmother, aka Mammaw, was an old East Tennessee woman who spent a lot of time with all of her many grandchildren, and helped to raise some of them. This song brings back memories so strong I can see her, hear her, and sometimes almost smell her. First time I heard it I cried for hours. Such a simple but powerful tribute to someone he cared about.

[@jericcheney521]

AMEN JO !

[@brianj6911]

Word is Tyler wrote this song about going to his friend Cody’s grandmothers funeral. I’m not sure if you’ve seen the video or not but I highly suggest checking him out singing Shake the Frost at the Huntington Music and Arts festival in 2011, pretty sure he’s only 19 singing his heart out while people wonder about in the background not knowing they’re in the presence of a future legend.

[@brianj6911]

Ps I live in Charleston WV and anytime he’s in the area performing my wife and I go see him. If you ever get the chance, he’s even better live. Especially if you can catch a solo acoustic show. Spine chilling

[@will8939able]

Think I saw an interview by Tyler where he explained that he and friends, of which I assume Cody was one of these friends, while young/teenagers would get together play and sing at a friend's grandmother's house. Obviously, she meant a lot to him and his friends. Virgie a town in Kentucky.

[@OliWilford]

Yeah, I caught that just now :) I think it was on Red Barn - but the context adds so much to the song I kinda wished I reviewed that one!

[@mistyblue1962]

True. I live in Ky not far from Virgie. It’s in Pike County.

[@tdawg7408]

Thanks for putting this on here. It saves me having to explain😂😂

I aint cryin. Shut up. Dang allergies. Stunning song

[@OliWilford]

This comment got me brother! At least we can blame it on allergy season ;)

[@zaphodbeeblebrox3986]

Makes me cry every time I hear it.

[@johnlaffey2318]

Thank you again for Tyler Tuesdays. The song was written for his friends Grandmother. Nice reaction!

[@OliWilford]

Unreal song John, I've played it everyday since the weekend!

[@Ryannjrb]

Brits have great taste in music and very high standards.

[@MsBuggyness]

This song gets me every time and not so much the sadness about going to a funeral, but this woman really meant something to him and when she died, he suffered- you can feel that hurt when he sings it. What Tyler is brilliant with is putting into words feelings and memories and that really resonates with folks who hear him. He learned his craft singing in church, and probably a small country one where folks talk like he sings. It's pure Appalachian (pronounced APPA-LATCH-UHN here) but sort of modern too. My grandfather played this type of music - mountain songs, sort of country, sort of gospel, sort of bluegrass but it's own thing too. Probably why I love Tyler's songs so much.

[@jericcheney521]

thank ya fer tellin bout us mountian folk - coal miners up to tha hills an hollers .... and yaeh this here reminds me of mommy.

[@byrtoff]

this song always gets me. some days its like 1 tear and a smile sometimes it just wrecks me but it always gets me.

[@colerearden9772]

Love this it always gets me, Cody is one of his friends and his grandma would watch and listen to them. Virgie is a small town in Eastern Kentucky, and they called all the boys in to carry her to her final resting place. Tyler is awesome and everything comes from his heart. Keep up the good work love what you do.

[@homegardenbook4886]

Despite his references in songs to popping pills, drinking, snorting his songs are mostly beautiful homages to the best of humanity...loving an elderly lady that encouraged her grandson and his friends in this one, being faithful to a partner by self pleasure in Ever Lovin' Hand, admiration of a man and his wife piecing together an old camper so they can one day travel in Country Squire, expressing empathy without patronizing in A Long Violent History....well the list could go on and on. Tyler Childers uses Hill country English in its beautiful and eloquent state and creates poetry as touching as Robbie Burns. There just aren't many, if any, like him.

[@kindking8009]

"Tyler Childers uses Hill country English in its beautiful and eloquent state ".....beautifully put. I'm originally from western NC, now live in Wisconsin and people always comment on my accent. I've lost a lot of it, but it still pricks the ears of the natives, here. I still use a lot of Appalachian colloquialisms and people just look at me and scratch their heads trying to figure out what I just said. 🤣 Just saw Tyler live for the first time last night, at Summerfest in Milwaukee. Fantastic show and great turnout for a boy from Hickman Holler. Nearly sold out at an outdoor amphitheater of 23,000. The stage and half the seats were covered, but half weren't and it rained through most of the show, but even the people in the rain stayed to the very end!

[@traviswitmer7060]

Love this song, makes me think of my nan

[@timshelley8635]

Great video! Makes me bawl every time I hear it thinking about my grannys. Keep up the good work.

[@vickienorris3031]

It's for his best friend Cody's grandma. Tyler is a unique talent. I live in WV and he is a country boy and he can create a picture in his words and captures my life and my families lives. This song is about my mom and grandma. I can't listen to it without breaking down. We are all heathens here. Grandma sees past that and only sees saints.

[@brooksryan8349]

You should check out The Turnpike Troubadours “7+7”. My favorite

[@OliWilford]

And that Ryan, has been added to the list ready for next week!

[@grilledlettuce1845]

Great choice. It's honestly so hard for me to suggest songs to channels cause I would honestly recommend all Turnpike Troubadours songs, Tyler Childers songs, and Cody Jinks songs lmao. There's so many country bands and artists out there where I haven't heard a bad song from them yet!

[@OliWilford]

Yeah, I mean the intention for this channel is to start off with requests and educate me on Country. But I'm doing my own research in my own time. Then eventually hopefully give a spot once a week to shine the spotlight on some up and coming talent that wouldn't get on the radio. But we'll see where this thing goes! If I could help bring another Tyler or Colter up - that would be life complete for me haha.

[@joshuacourtney9266]

There’s another live version (i think live at red barn) of this song where he explains the story and meaning of the song. He mentions in that video that he had only performed the song once before all the way thru without breaking down. Powerful song, keep it up! Cheers! Hoping he and sturgills tour starts up again after the madness

[@OliWilford]

Yeahhh man, I caught that just now. A real powerful song for sure. I couldn't imaging having a song like that written about me... But it shows how much of a good woman she was. Cheers for checking in again though brother! I'll be getting a ticket to the states to see the two of them perform live. Do you know if they have a track together?

[@joshuacourtney9266]

The 94 Club they do not that i know of, but sturgill produced Tyler’s last album and maybe the one before. Can’t recall. Tyler and colter have a song together though called fraulein!! It’s awesome but wayyy too short. I live a mile from Where Tyler recorded purgatory, in Nashville. And have met sturgill at a burger joint in downtown. I recommend Nashville for a country fan!!

I just found your channel and it's great! I love that you love Tyler. He's my favorite. As good amas he is on video, he's even better live! I hope he gets to come your way soon. I hope I'm making sense. It's Friday night and I'm a bit drunk 🤣 I'm loving your videos. New sub here! Southern momma, artist, and music lover. Thanks for a good one!

[@jonmullins8460]

This was written when Cody's grandmother passed away. As I understand it, she was buried in Virgie Kentucky.

[@ceeph36]

You have to listen to Tylers song Hard Times. Awesome song one of my favorites of his.. This song was about his friends grandmother passing away. They all hung out at her house and played music together when they were young. Virgie is a real place in eastern Kentucky where Tyler is from.

[@dyingbreed7740]

Shout out from Alaska. Love Tyler, he’s my favorite right now as well

[@colleenblackwater4792]

Hey from Alaska also here. I really like 94clubs take on. Music. COLTER WALL IS MY favorite of country.

[@ritamead6318]

I wish I was the Grandmother he was singing about.... She truly touched his heart! Great review.. Thanks!

[@OliWilford]

I think these sort of songs really speak to me for sure. In a way that's like - if I can do as good as I possibly can through life. Then I will leave behind a similar feeling for people.

[@brianmuller2866]

From what I heard, Cody, is a friend of his when he was young. Cody's mom I believe, used to have him, Cody, and other locals out to play blue grass. And it seems obvious she made an impression on him before her passing.

[@othos4385]

As you have done Colter Wall and Tyler Childers, I think you should have a look at them 2 coming together with there cover of Fraulein, think you would love how both artists have come together!!!! 😁😁😁

[@jojojimmyjoe]

Fraulein is a very nice song. Love them both together on it.

[@OliWilford]

All over this. However, it'll likely drop at the end of the month when I cross over to Colter Wall Wednesdays!!

[@blakerhodes459]

Man frauline is just beautifully written and sang by those 2 amazing artists.

[@taylorhara]

Harvest by Tyler is great as well. That and banded Clovis are my two favorites! Used to dig arrowheads and pick blackberries in the woods behind my grandmas house. Never thought a hillbilly might come shoot me down 😂

[@derekhoover5304]

I'm curious. Why would one of us hillbillies shoot you if you were just picking blackberries/digging arrowheads? We only shoot thieves.

[@sambooher7480]

MORE TYLER CHILDERS! Just Tyler in general lol

[@biggs8021]

He even name drops his friend Cody which his grandmother was Virgie.

[@chucknorris1948]

I'm not cryin, you're cryin.

[@tobyerickson6344]

So, I’ve got two things for ya. A. To your earlier comment about why we like Tyler so much, and he inspires us to work hard goes hand in hand with what we call “blue collar” work. I’m sure you guys across the pond have a very similar term, but Blue Collar is for the folks who are labor intensive. And Tyler’s music really resonates with myself and folks that work hard to make/earn a living. His stories about mining, building, and the problems/successes along with that just resonates really well. B. As other folks have said, the song was written about Cody’s grandma, who was like the groups grandma and Virgie is almost like heaven (from what I have concluded). A place where they can absolutely feel her presence even though she has passed on. Beautiful song, and I’m glad you chose this one! If you want another story, chose Banded Clovis! For hilarity, go with Ever Loving Hand. Keep up the good work man!

[@OliWilford]

This week, I've done 'Hard Times' and that drops on the channel today. That song kinda hit me in the face and I really dove into the lyrics on that track so please feel free to drop by and listen. I'll do Ever Loving Hand next week because I need something light hearted from him I think. But I'm glad you're enjoying it brother and appreciate the comments. I can completely empathize with your first point, I know it's primarily created to speak to those that work in blue collar work (especially like 'Hard Times' is) but it still fires me up to get my head down and work hard which is the beauty of pulling the context out of the track. There's also kind of an education for people like me that aren't always familiar to the struggles of others. A lot of layers for sure, but an incredible musician with some important stories to tell. Cheers brother and feel free to drop by anytime!

[@jessieseay3878]

Lady may and deadman’s curve. Two great songs by him.

who´s cutting onions again?? btw this song is about his friends grandmother that loved to sit down and listen to the boys (tyler and his friends playing music and talking about their dreams) and supporting them alot if i may do a request : the steeldrivers if it hadn't been for love

[@JT.Thompson]

Just found your channel because of Tyler Tuesdays. I really enjoy your thought process and explanations. Recommendation for Tyler - hard times or Banded Clovis (I’d like to see if you could figure that one out, took me awhile) also the Turnpike Troubadours - Good Lord Lorie!

[@OliWilford]

Ayy Jonathan, you're a real one! Thanks for letting me know what you think :) Turnpike Troubadours are coming next week. Haven't heard them at all yet, so it'll be cool to get that first listen on camera. And I think Banded Clovis will be next week. Any advice you can share with me before I listen? Anything I may need to know?

[@JT.Thompson]

The 94 Club - Tyler’s story telling will get you 95% there. The only think I didn’t know before is what a Banded Clovis was. You can do some reading on it if you want, but it’s pretty much a perfectly intact Native American tribal arrowhead. Finding one of these in the region that Tyler’s from/writes about is significant because they are worth a good amount of money and the Smokey Mountain area is historically poor.

[@OliWilford]

That gives me enough to go on brother. I’ll hand over to Tyler for the rest ;) Feel free to check back in anytime... these conversations really help educate me bro so I fully appreciate it

[@maxdefender2439]

Yo man loved this reaction, i suggest you to check out Chris Stampleton - Outlaw state of mind or "Sometimes i cry" or even Tennesse Whiskey, which ever you find more interesting!

[@OliWilford]

I did Tennessee Whiskey, but it was one of my first videos and the sound quality wasn't great and I was a little less comfortable in front of camera. So Outlaw State of Mind will happen for sure next week!
