Wait In The Truck - Hardy ft. Lainey Wilson (Official Video)

[@teresahouk1544]

A judge under a seat, Taurus gun. A southern woman, we know what wait in the truck means

[@christinebuckingham2480]

This is set in the 70s when The Judge wasn't a thing. It's just talking about a regular gun as 'a judge' under a seat.

[@C5IGNITIONS]

This story isn't exclusive to the South. Waiting in the truck happens up here as well. SSS

[@jacquelineo2747]

​@christinebuckingham2480 what makes you think this is set in the 70s? And that is a literal Taurus Judge Revolver in the video.

[@markoehler2752]

@@jacquelineo2747and a 90’s model truck 🤣

[@devinlong5400]

​@@christinebuckingham2480 How is it "set in the 70s" when they're using a 90 model truck and an actual Taurus Judge revolver?

[@lylelookingbill6606]

I hear it all the time; The police are supposed to enforce the law and the courts are supposed protect the innocent. In a perfect world that might work, but we are not living in a perfect world. I worked the streets as a LEO for a few years and did many years with State DOC (retiring 8yrs ago) now that I am not restrained by a badge I see things a tad differently then the black and white right or wrong of the rule of law. What is legal isn't always right and sometimes doing what is right isn't always legal. When the system, when society fails to protect those weakest among us it is left to rough men standing outside the rule of law to do what is necessary to preserve the peace, protect the innocent, and return civility. Some call this "vigilante justice" but for some the vigilante is the only hope to obtain justice.

[@sheilasisk7550]

You got hooked now. Lol listen to Chris Stapleton . Tennessee, whiskey. Lainey Wilson wildflowers, and wild horses

[@nancysnook396]

Hardy - Give Heaven Some He'll (another great song by Hardy)

[@bShawreacts]

I reacted to that one also! Great song for sure!

[@larynanntapp6333]

The ending as she leaves has a meaning. Her pants becoming very flowing....free. As he's going back to his cell, his steps are restricted. It's a 180 from the beginning of the video. He was free...could walk where he wanted but she couldn't since she's a DV victim. They basically switched their lives with each other. The body language and facial expression after he pulls the trigger looks like "Okay. Finally. I couldn't protect mom/sister/niece but I helped her.". It looks like a weight has been lifted off his shoulders. As a DV survivor, he's an angel in my heart.

[@bikergrandma2316]

Very correct!

[@maryreynolds5723]

Restraining orders against your abuser is nothing more than a piece of paper! They will still come for you! I know! I get this video.

[@Stickywicket1keet]

Please do not ignore these girls

[@Kim-mi7yr]

I understand that it's a true story. He did 20 years.

[@thecityman1910]

Always fun seeing someone who thinks they aren't a country fan get converted right before our eyes by a work of art like this!!! Nice review

[@mikerobinson1194]

And Yes I own a Judge and love it!

[@sillytowbaby]

As a southern woman WE all know what “wait in the truck” means!

[@wesmongold8703]

This is called Outlaw Country. A sub genre in the same theme as Copperhead Road.

[@lonnakyle1911]

You need to hear give heaven some hell by hardy

[@Nizhonibearcreek]

Wait in the truck I got this and you’ll be safe there

[@mikerobinson1194]

When a man says wait in the truck then shit's about to hit the fan!!

[@bShawreacts]

Yep 👍 lol

[@deannapaul3149]

Check out Hardy “A Rock”. It’s amazing. Loved the reaction

[@ladymusic3134]

Hardy singing "Give Heaven Some Hell" is AWESOME!

[@bShawreacts]

I loved it! I’ve already reacted to it! 💙

[@carybrown3192]

Signed,sober me is a great Hardy song!

[@Dixie6716]

Your reaction was priceless! About the best one I've saw yet for this song/video. Thanks

[@bettyjones3317]

His voice is southern, and unique.

[@ayronbueker7654]

Give heaven some hell , another awesome song by hardy

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

This one makes you think. We all know abusers who get caught, get arrested, get jailed, get out & the victim gets hurt or worse as soon as that happens. Obviously, murder is not the answer either, but this song has opened the topic for frank discussion. Hardy is a rocker at heart. Before he started performing his stuff, he was writing for other artists, writing the typical 'radio ready' fare. Then he decided to write what HE wanted to write & perform it himself. He tells his story in his song 'The Mockingbird & the Crow', where at first, he is a "Mockingbird, writing typical country music like everyone else & then how he turns into the Crow & says what he wants to say. The music in the first half totally changes for the last half. It's like two songs mashed together. This guy is an amazingly talented guy. Hell of a writer. I love his song 'Give heaven some hell' too.

[@bShawreacts]

Thank you for all the information 👍

[@tonidh69]

They do it live at the CMAs that is fantastic

[@jenniferbrumley2746]

Hardy statyed out as a songwriter and has tons of songs. Now hes started singing

[@bShawreacts]

Oh that’s awesome! Thanks for sharing that! Much love 💙

[@shannaguthrie7180]

I love how 'invested' you become in these songs... This is another good one!!

[@bShawreacts]

Thank you!

[@Mikyll1969]

dude fixed the situation ... AND just stayed and said, "I'll take mine " ... some things are worth it

[@travismillikan38]

I have four daughters i completely understand id gladly give my life for theirs

[@markmyers6472]

you may enjoy watching the CMA awards show of this song performed live... the dynamics between Hardy and Wilson are INSANE....

[@bShawreacts]

Ooh sounds interesting! I’ll check it out for sure! Thank you!

[@caseyb4425]

....Then she gets into his truck, and waits for him to be set free too....

[@lindas9616]

I'd love if he were to do a follow up song with exactly this.

[@NathanBlankenship-o5p]

U were the only one in reaction to notice the truck in the end

[@SandiRugless]

Give heaven some hell is s great song. Also A Rock. He's just an all-around amazing artist. A little country a little rock 100% amazing

[@tsm-draggio2319]

Best Rock and Country Mix Ever by Hardy on that album! You will Love it!

[@farrellwhittington4088]

He’s a great songwriter.. I would highly recommend Mockingbird and the Crow by hardy

[@bShawreacts]

I really enjoyed the song! I’m glad I did check it out! Hardy is super talented. Going to react to that one asap 👍

[@Alonnah-78]

I know I've commented before but your reaction is so to the point and refreshing , every other reaction I've seen their automatically guessing what the song is about.... You take the time to genuinely listen

[@ursulaturner7980]

That LORD HAVE MERCY ON ME, IS FN AMAZING!!❤

[@christelsegbars1630]

Oh I always cry when I hear this song. So beautifull.....have a great day!!!

[@RoryCoats]

Ya'll will Love The Cadillac Three " THE SOUTH" Video a must TY

[@dtmuncy]

Loved your reaction! Almost anything by Hardy is incredible. But first things first: 1. The Mockingbird and The Crow 2. Radio Song 3. He Went To Jared

[@jasonknittle6371]

First time I heard this song I was driving on the freeway and had to pull over cause I couldn't see from crying so hard. He traded his life for hers. she was in her own Prison from being abused. at the end when you see her walking away free and him in changes it show the exchange his life for hers. and she also drives away in his truck free just like he drove in a free person in the beginning.

[@TJ_in_SC]

I bet I’ve watched every reaction to this song but yours was by far the best one yet !! You didn’t just hear it, you FELT it !!!

[@sheilasisk7550]

He’s got the Southern twinge lol

[@ritacall5588]

he got a award for this song

[@wht-rabt-obj]

Hardy does heavy rock too. Listen to The Mockingbird and the Crow by Hardy. You’ll be a fan. I promise.

[@MindyImwalle]

Hardy isn’t typical country, listen to “Sold Out” you won’t be disappointed 😅

[@Melody-bourbonite4life]

HARDY is from Mississippi..he is anything but cleche you should check out his song "radio song " he is a genius

[@bShawreacts]

I was wrong to even imply that it could be cliche. Clearly it is not… my apologies

[@belindablake3384]

Lainey Wilson is very good also love her beautiful voice

[@kristymeyers2684]

Great video. Loved the story. Thanks for introducing me to some new great artists 😊

[@bShawreacts]

So glad you enjoyed it my friend! Hope all is well for you guys! 👍💙

[@rickyletner3167]

Any country girl in the world knows wait in the truck means shit bout to get REAL

[@amypowell6307]

Every southern woman knows what wait in the truck means. A judge, a gun.

[@carybrown3192]

My first time to your channel,brother, loved your reaction to this song,you've got a new subscriber here, listen to Hardys Sober me!

[@poisomivy13]

Coming from a survivor of this abuse trust me I wish others could understand my savior served 17 years to save me but I hate that he had to sacrifice so much for me but til this day that is and always will be my best friend and who I owe everything too he is the reason I'm a mom and a grandma today because I was stabbed and run-over and I'm sure I would've died if not for him

[@dissodatore]

my thoughts on this story is that the man lost someone to abuse and just couldn't stand the thought of someone else going the same way.

[@karendavis2668]

If you like Lainey's voice, check out "Heart Like A Truck." She's definitely country, but a little old school with a modern twist. ❤

[@kdavis9943]

Wow, what a story teller. I’ve not heard this before. I’m like you, I’m not a huge fan of country but I appreciate it and there are some really great country artists. I like Keith Urban and Jason Alden. Check out Keith Urban’s version of “To Love Somebody”, a Bee Gees hit song. He sang it at a Grammy’s Bee Gees Tribute show. Barry and family sitting on the front row. It was amazing. You’ll love it! ❤️

[@GreekLady188]

Get ready to absorb!

[@deb7times8]

I can see a man doing this for a stranger if he was raised in an abusive home.

[@Alonnah-78]

He speaks the words of our hearts... he's just able to say it louder on his pedestal great reaction my friend ❤

[@TexasMagnolia]

With today’s music sucking so bad….Thousands of Reactors are discovering the greatness of CountryMusic and it remains The Truth!

[@GusElliott]

Honestly, one of my favorite reactions to this song. If you ever want to check out more HARDY, A ROCK has some fantastic storytelling. Keep it up!

[@bShawreacts]

Awesome thank you my friend! Will do!

[@braxtoncurtis8488]

First time watching your channel. I always enjoy watching Hardy reaction videos. Hardy is one of the best songwriters. He’s great at blending different styles. You should definitely check out Mockingbird and the Crow, Sold Out, and Radio Song.

[@suzique6540]

Thank you for this

[@bShawreacts]

My pleasure!

[@lisaheathcock7924]

Really great song, story & vocals!!! Sucks you right in!! Great reaction, kudos for trying something different!! 🤘🔥😎🥰

[@bShawreacts]

Thank you so much!

[@jenniferbrumley2746]

❤❤

[@jenniferbrumley2746]

And us southern women know when we are told to wait in the truck, we wait.

[@pechenoir9780]

i'm willing to bet he had a momma that got hit!

[@billstidham3875]

Try the mockingbird & THE CROW...Think you'll like it

[@PromptCriticalJello]

I scrolled through the comments and didn't see this anywhere, It may be apocryphal but my understanding is that this is based on a true story. One of Hardy's roadies is the guy in the song. She did come to visit him in prison, driving his truck. They are married and have 3 beautiful daughters.

[@rudedogmat]

There is no other way. He'll just keep beating her till someone does him in.

[@Rwizard206]

If you want to go down the country story tellers, listen to Martina McBride concrete angel or Jason carrol alyssa lies. Very powerful. Deep meaning. Touchy subject matter

[@bettyjones3317]

This is a true story, not his story, but true.

[@dukeravenshadow5532]

Great reaction!

[@markmyers6472]

To add to the other comments... he was not a bad man, he was not an evil man... perhaps he grew up in a house of abuse.... as he knew what had happened to her without asking... he was a man who saw a need, saw an evil and acted on that need and evil. He was a man of faith (evidenced by the court scene bridge (Oh Lord have mercy on me was not asked to the court system... it was a plea to God) and visibly evidenced by the cross hanging on his rear view mirror... was his action legal, obviously not based on the trial, was it morally just.... that is up to each individual for you cannot legislate morality... but for every victim of DV, he would be an answered prayer... and for every man... the story forces the question... "what would I do?" I recently picked up on another aspect of the acting...you can see the transfer of 'weight' from the weight on her as a DV victim... to him, as the reality of what he did sank in looking at the body on the floor... she has her weight lifted as she no longer has to live that life... and the weight of the decision he made settles onto his shoulders, heart and mind.

[@Alonnah-78]

It ain't paradise that's true... But it's a whole lot better than the place I sent him to.... Just Savage but facts ii

[@terrybeasley5931]

She would only be safe if this guy was dead. Wife beaters get a slap on the wrist, then come back and kill the woman. Happens all the time.

[@marybreazeale3276]

It’s ok. You can say “twang” lol. One of the best country singer/songwriters is Randy Travis. And he definitely has a twang. But if you listen to some of his songs (without prejudice) you’ll enjoy them.

[@judyhausler7057]

He knew what the cost of doing what he did. If he calls the police, yes the guy gets picked up and bonds out and maybe he kills her that time. He went to prison to get her out of the prison of violence and fear that she was in. We dont know what happened in his past, mother,sister who knows but he was going to stop it for her.

[@wendellbabin6457]

Probably only brought pistol "just in case" things went South. Which it did. I am assuming dude was passed out drunk which is why he broke down the door. Could have been just going to draw down on him, if needed, while she got whatever meager belongings she had that she couldn't bring when she escaped. I don't know if true song, or not, but like others wonder if he is an abuse experience-er or possibly even a survivor themselves.

[@poisomivy13]

Yeah he has a few rock/ metal/ country songs out listen to psycho and jack

[@TheAnasmiti]

The first part of this song reminds me of an other song, but can’t remember which

[@TexasMagnolia]

Highly recommend you check out the songwriters in Red Dirt Country - Artists from Texas. Whiskey Myers - Broken Window Serenade (live) Not only a true story but, the musicianship will blow you away.

[@johnaguiar8813]

Judge under his seat is a reference to the "vigilante" justice of handling it himself. Not a reference to the type of handgun, besides he pulls a .357 snub nose from under the seat not a Taurus Judge.

[@wendellbabin6457]

I caught that too, but wasn't sure in the half second cut. Probably some "Woke" legal BS if I had to guess.

[@johnmiller9120]

Hardy is from Mississippi.

[@bShawreacts]

That’s awesome! I’m in Louisiana about 30 minutes away from New Orleans.

[@Im-sure]

Yeah angels do everything so…and you’ve never been in combat so…

[@joeymosteller6787]

You need to react to Mockingbird and The Crow by Hardy. It’ll appease your rock side

[@davidbaker2847]

Try Hardy “Give Heaven Some Hell”.

[@tiggsrevenge9998]

Maybe you should listen to more of newer country music

[@cathyholcombe4674]

Please correct me if I'm wrong but from everything I have heard about domestic abuse outcomes is the abuser always gets off and the woman either ends up dead or she kills him and ends up in prison eventhough it is self-defense. There is no justice for victims through the courts.

[@tiggsrevenge9998]

Try Carrie Underwood- Two Black Cadillacs, or Church Bells or Chawktaw County Affair

[@tsm-draggio2319]

You MUST DO Hardy MOCKINGBIRD AND THE CROW!!!!

[@katherineyoung4320]

Try Chris Stapleton 🎉

[@ursulaturner7980]

I hate to say it but so many times there really isn't sweetheart. I wish that there was.❤

[@suzique6540]

He is from Mississippi she from Tennessee

[@galerios1]

If you have a problem with this... You might as well hand over your man card right now.

[@charlenemetcalf4246]

Someone beat my husband up for beating me. My husband kicked in my door and that time I ended up in the hospital and almost didn't make it. Sometimes that isn't a help.

[@tommycrist1856]

you have to decide if what you are about to do is worth the price. back in the day, the abuser would have "just disappeared".

[@scrappy8ball]

HARDY does it all. You would probably like "Sold Out" and "The Mockingbird and The Crow" those are both Rock, not Country.

[@bikergrandma2316]

Until you have walked in her shoes, plz to not judge. I was that woman at one point in my life.NEVER AGAIN.

[@derkisdonenow6472]

This is something i could see a man who watched his mom get beat would do my mom got hit one time i was 17 and i put him through a wall I’ve been 6’2” sine i was 15 weighed 250 was a tackle on the football team we went into the bedroom and im not joking from the living room to the bedroom broke a wall stud we only stoped because of bunk beds if my brother hadn’t been there i would be in jail because i had him by the throat as we went through the wall and after we hit the beds he was dangling my brother tacked me he was 16 i still had him on the ground by his throat my brother jumped on me and got his face right in front of mine and yelled stop please i broke out of my rage the guy stumbled up wheezing he left all his stuff and never came back for it then 15 years later he was in the hospital fighting for his life because he hit a woman and she took a box cutter to him he had small man syndrome he was 5’5” he was the most insecure person I’ve ever met and what drove me to action when i was 5 my grandmother was killed by a man who she dumped and the police did nothing i seen what that done to my dad i wasn’t letting that happen to my brother but yeah this song hits a little close to home

[@bShawreacts]

Geez sorry to hear about all that!

[@chrispenders-ub8lf]

Thats what we do in Texas. You must be a yankee. You dont get it.
