Not to be nitpicky, but Michael is the archangel of war, and destined to throw Lucifer into the abyss for a thousand years. Gabriel is the archangel of death, who visited Mary to tell her she'd give birth to Jesus, and the one who went door to door in Egypt and killed their first born as the tenth plague.

[@dustinwilson4815]

@@Lunzatis_Palemoon It might bear consideration that the singer's first name is Michael, and that in this song he sent that woman's "Lucifer" to the abyss as well. I mean, if we're relating such hyperbole to the song to begin with...

[@Lunzatis_Palemoon]

@@dustinwilson4815 That is definitely one way to look at it. However, the Angel of War would be related more with Destruction than Death considering that there is an Angel of Death and an Angel of War. The main male character in the video was more like a Grim Reaper than an Angel of War.

I worked as a paramedic in Texas for 15 years . One Saturday night my partner and I were called to a house on the outskirts of town (I can’t mention the town for legal reasons) where we found a young woman who had been badly beaten by her drunken boyfriend. (He had run off) She had broken bones and bleeding internally… we took her to the hospital where she had 3 hours of surgery to repair the damage he had done…Later that night another unit was called to the same address where the boyfriend was found beaten within an inch of his life and left there… no one knew how he got that way but he got patched up in time to stand trial for attempted murder, DV, and violating a protective order… my partner and I had to testify and the bastard was sent to prison for 30 plus years ( he was a repeat offender) before he even will come up for parole… that my friends is true frontier justice…

Hardy is a master song writer. He wrote a lot of Morgan Wallen songs. His song "Jack" has a metal vibe to it. It's underrated for sure but it's a good song. "Give Heaven Some Hell" is perhaps my favorite song and has deep meaning for me. "A Rock" from the same album as Give Heaven...is lyrically amazing. Hardy is a phenomenal artist.

Before i could say a word that something felt off. My date took me by the hand and made sure i got in his car safely. He said calmly. Wait in the car. As that rowdy crowd followed us.

In East Texas there is a 95% chance that girl is on meth, but I digress. She looks beat up, so instead of taking her to a police station, you ask her where he lives. Then after you decided not to "load her down with questions", you drive to his trailer pull a gun out of your truck and tell her to "wait in the truck" meaning the stranger you picked up can't even positively ID the stranger you are about to kill....hope his buddy wasn't over watching the UFC fights. Next you are gonna "knocked and knocked and no one came so I kicked in his double wide door"...so you are telling me that it is after midnight, you are beating on the door of someone that has a 12 guage shotgun and the home owner isn't gonna grab it and blow you off the porch as soon as you "kicked in his double-wide door"....come on....lastly this guy threw his life away, murdered someone, not for a sister, friend, mother...no for some stranger and he didn't even question her about what happened, that's psychopathic behavior, is it not? That said Trevor Bauer, former pitcher of the Dodgers, got released after a girl he had sex with posted pictures of her busted up face saying he beat her up. After 2 years in court, with him not being able to publicly defend himself, it came out through text messages that she did it to herself to "get a piece of [his] 51mil"...he was innocent and she was a litigious gold digger and she didn't care what happened to him as long as she could get some of that money....In this "Wait in the truck" scenario, Hardy murders Trevor Bauer without even finding out if the girl was a liar.

Lots of 'radio ready' stuff & decided to start writing for himself so he can say what he wants to say, He has a twist on all his music. His song 'The Mockingbird & the Crow' describes his journey kinda.

[@TruthIsTheNewHate84]

This is a true story. The man did 20 years and when he got out she still had his truck. They got married, had children, are living in Alabama and he works on the road with Hardy.

[@peterhaverkamp2716]

That I did not know. I learned something today

[@YourGodStalin]

Where'd you hear that? Hardy himself said the song came from him and a friend discussing what they would do if someone attacked their fiancés.

[@mvh301ify]

That is total BS. HARDY has talked about when he and his cowriters wrote the song. It was going to be about what would they do if somebody messed with one of their girls in a bar one night and it morphed into this.

[@jefferycrouch4396]

I'll take "things that never happened" for 600 alex.

[@justcallmesuzzie]

Hardy is an incredible song writer and wrote MANY hit songs for other artists. He finally decided to come out and sing his own songs and MAN did he come out and show everyone what he could do. Check out more of his songs and I am SURE you will enjoy his style.

[@HillbillyWho]

He gave up his freedom so another human being can finally live free. Priceless!

[@blakethegreatone2058]

Yup, what a dummy.

[@tinajustvig5921]

Your reaction is my favorite of all the reactions I’ve seen of all I’ve seen!!!!!!! You got everything that was going on, right down to her driving off in his truck. Great reaction!!!!!

[@kelikeys27]

I disagree. No he should not spend the rest of his life in prison. Absolutely not.

[@rosscockburn2269]

But it is all the more meaningful because he knew what was right to do even though it meant he would spend the rest of his life in prison. Another measurement of doing the right thing is what it costs you to do it.

[@kevingreen6621]

Sometimes the right thing may be viewed as wrong. No one should ever hurt another person, but if they do, they should expect some retribution.

[@galerios1]

He defended another person he didn't even know. These days he's a murderer. But that is not always the case though. A few years ago a man was found not guilty of murder after he beat his daughters rapist to death with his bare hands. There is still hope. The people who say violence is not the answer are the problem. Violence is not the answer part of the time... But there are times where it is the answer.

[@JamesGrasmick]

He didn't mean rightfully so about spending time in jail ... he meant it about killing they guy

[@ryanmartin5668]

@@galerios1violence isn’t always the answer, but when it is, it’s the ONLY answer. Stay real, king.

[@pamb.2191]

It was so interesting watching the both of you react exactly the same way at the same time. Great reaction video.

[@tommcknight7878]

Few people notice she's driving his truck at the end. It's beautiful

[@JuicyDrJonah]

as a southern man i love seeing people listening and liking country

[@nickeckert8292]

3:54 that moment is priceless

[@hollylewis6631]

I loved your reaction to the line about a judge under the seat. I kinda thought that you know exactly what a Judge is.

[@MommaRichey]

That line "smokin one of HIS cigarettes.." made the song...

[@Beccaleigh1082]

Absolutely love this song! It’s so powerful and hits hard! Big Hardy fan, especially his harder sounding music and love love Lainey’s voice!

[@nurseshrek]

I have thought a lot about this song since it came out. I came to the conclusion that Hardy’s character must have been raised by a victim of domestic violence, and seen it for himself, and most likely seen the system fail to protect his mother. That is the reason I see being feasible for him to IMMEDIATELY turn the violence up to that level for a woman he had never met. He was likely too young to protect his mother, but not this woman….

[@wendyanzaldua2293]

I did not think I would see this video on this channel!!! F*cking love you guys!!!!! Awesome

[@erikduggins228]

And remember if you don't like Southern justice, you might be the one who was judged by the judge under the seat.

[@blakethegreatone2058]

Lmao. Enjoy prison.

[@jonelmer3518]

wow! I haven't heard this before, and I will have to hear it at least once more to hear everything..

[@marysmith1922]

She’s still waiting in the truck!

[@jasonyoung9248]

I love 99% of what you guys react to and Hardy is one of the few country artists I really enjoy! The song "Jack" got me started and "Mockingbird and the Crow" is one of my favorites! You would be blown away by most of his newest album. He integrates lots of hard rock and some harsh vocals in many of his songs. Also, great content as always! Keep doing what you're doing! I've went down the Sleep Token rabbit hole with you guys and I can't stop 😅

[@bevalexander5897]

I was a victim of DV for several years. I enlisted in the Army to get away and be safe. Then I became a police officer, and helped women who were victims. It felt really good to put cuffs on the abusers.

[@teamrealtree0073]

We country boy's love our wemon starting with our mother and sister's and it keeps going .

[@maryreynolds5723]

I went through what she went through for 17 years. I didn’t have a Romeo, I just had me. I had had enough! I couldn’t feel the pain of his fists anymore, actually I couldn’t feel anything. But God told me, it’s time to go or you’re going to die. So, with no plan and nowhere to go, I left. It took me several years to realize I am a person just like anybody else. Yes, I made it on my own and got a job making pretty good money. I made it. But, I forgave him. We run into each other now and then, and we get along just fine. He knows he has no more power over me. I couldn’t have done this without God telling me to go, and with him helping me find my way. Thanks guys for your reaction and emotions.

[@Cizzel1407]

Never seen you guys before but this has to be the best reaction to this video I have seen! Love it!

Hi Chris 👋 Thanks for hanging with us! 🤗

Lainey Wilson got her huge start on Yellowstone, she's amazing! She does tons of duets!

[@eleganceincrafting5625]

still rewatching, yalls reaction are so strong!!! She was a prisoner for so long while he was free before he found her, he gave up his freedom willingly for her to be free now while he's a prisoner. I got mixed feelings personally about this but daaannnnngggggg as someone trying to heal I wish someone saved me this way. 35 and STILL terrified of my abuser from 11 years old. so much so that I can't leave my apartment (He lives mere BLOCKS from me right now, I just can't talk about it legally rn since video evidence from then came to light a couple of years ago, which revictimizes me even more so) (ooofffff not a good look to trauma dump but sometimes you bottle it up so long you HAVE to tell someone or you might do something stupid or something you'll regret.) God Bless, thank you for being sensitive to the issues sung about in this song, it means more to the world than you realize, especially for those who aren't ready to even utter a word or even type it out.

[@vapatsfan6174]

Any woman who is married to a good man knows what it means when he tells her to wait in the truck. These men are complete protectors.

[@Tigerflix20]

I’m not a country fan but this song got me. Fan of Hardy for sure.. looking forward to more reactions from yall on his music

[@megk4636]

Hardy is carving his own path, little bit of metal, little bit of rap and a whole lot of country. I love the uniqueness of his music ("Jack" a song about alcoholism in young men, that gets played on a rock radio station here, "Quit" a short rap about people being nasty when artists are starting out). The best one that says exactly what Hardy is all about, is "Mockingbird and the Crow" which is an F U statement about the mass production of the music industry, and about him following his own path. I'd recommend giving this one a listen if you want to do another Hardy song!

[@Chronically_Kimberly]

Last time, it was Eric and now Kyle. Again, I dont know where y'all been, but your tears touch me. Clearly, y'all have good hearts. Sending so much love ❤️ ❤

[@teresacartwright5406]

This is such a powerful song with a powerful message. I don't know if you've ever heard Hank Williams Jr. "A Country Boy Can Survive" but it has a strong message of its own. Like Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" - it's as relevant today as when it was recorded.

[@AuntieKim1970]

So this video popped up in my feed today. The first thing I thought was how awesome! A metal head and a hip-hop head reviewing a country music video. So awesome! I am one of those people that loves all music. There are so many amazing songs in so many different genres. This is one of my absolute favorite songs and I listen to it over and over and over again. And I’m so glad the video told the story as well. I hate it when the video doesn’t match up to the song. You guys did an awesome job! Can’t wait to see more!
