I laughed so hard at this when you realized what the song was about. 😂😂😂 Welcome the world of every 90's kid raised on country music. We all love this song cuz it's upbeat and sounds fun, then you hit the age where you start understanding the lyrics, like what did he just say? 😂😂😂 We pretty much all had the same reaction you just did. It's great. 😂
@@jenkinsbushae1063 I still love fancy. It's a story about overcoming the odds and hustling to make it in life. It's about not judging sex workers. It's a pretty awesome song.
@@rachel-in-the-208 Well, he seemed a little unclear on that, so I thought I'd help him out. But, for the most part, I think by the end he understood. I just posted too quickly during the reaction. LOL
The actual story behind it is funny! The songwriter had a copy of a newspaper with a truck in a hotel and Garth pretty much said that is a country song lol
No he was trying to finish one of his albums and his songwriter came in with that newspaper with the headlines of that truck slammed in the side of the motel, and when Garth asked him what he’s got, the songwriter said your new song and 10 minutes later they busted that song out at a diner
Just to give you an idea of how popular Garth Brooks is, he did a free concert in Central Park. The NYFD estimated the crowd at 980,000 people. Almost 1 million showed up for one of his shows. His current tour only does stadium shows, if you can't hold 65,000+ he's not coming there. All of his shows sell out in minutes.
Sux that Garth pulls his music from UA-cam but his music is amazing! My rockin’ favorites from Garth are That Summer; Standing Outside the Fire; Ain’t Goin’ Down (‘Til the Sun Comes Up); Callin’ Baton Rouge; Rodeo; and Two of a Kind, Workin’ on a Full House. My emotional favorites of his are If Tomorrow Never Comes; Unanswered Prayers; Wolves; What She’s Doing Now; The River; Learning to Live Again; That Ol’ Wind; Somewhere Other Than The Night; Much Too Young (To Feel This Damn Old); The Dance; She’s Every Woman; and In Lonesome Dove. But his most powerful songs are Mom; The Thunder Rolls; The Night I Called The Old Man Out; We Shall Be Free; and The Change.
Watching your reaction to that was great!!! I've always though that song needed a third verse though. What great imagery through the lyrics. It's got everything an older country song needs, love, cheating, alcohol....love it!
Garth brooks is officially the best selling solo artist in the US, beating even Elvis. Randy Travis (a country legend) that broke out about the same time as Garth Brooks once said "Well the rest of us, we are in the business of Country, he is in the business of Garth Brooks"
Only in the US. Elvis is actually the largest selling solo artist ever with over 1.2 Billion records sold worldwide. Alot of his early record sales in the US were done before the RIAA.
That song was actually done by Tanya Tucker but she never released it on radio so Garth Brooks cut it and made it a hit then a few years later Tanya Tucker released her version of it
@@stephenthomas4079 He's the songwriter. Gave it to Tanya Tucker. She didn't release it. Wrote the third verse on her manager's insistence. He *almost* let Trisha Yearwood cut it, but took it back last second, and cut it himself.
Didn't think a song about a man murdering his wife could be so upbeat... My father really did kill my mother (a month before my 11th birthday) while they were separating and she was moving on... The biggest tragedy of my life and it was definitely not upbeat. I'm 36 years old with kids on my own and it's still affects me to this day. 😔
Just stumbling in and had to cackle at that face. So happy, jamming away 'Mamas in the graveyard papas in the pen' *Almost hear the needle screech* I know this is a few years old but still...happy to see people discovering Garth even so recently.
@@whatarethose6159 Garth has some of the strictest copyright restrictions because he owns his own music rights. Very rarely does anything on UA-cam with his music last more than a few days. This is not him. Sorry bucko. Just some random cover nobody. There are several that sound very similar to his. But they are not him. Better double check your Amazon music.
Seen Garth in concert and it was absolutely amazing!! Please do a reaction to his song The Dance, Unanswered Prayers, or To Make You Feel My Love. Thanks for another great reaction!! You're Awesome!! 💜
Okay, here it is. You have earned my Sub today! I have watched a few of your reactions and found them worthy of a few likes! But your face when you understood what "mamas in the graveyard and papas in the pen" ment, wheeee doggies, Priceless! Good on ya brotha!!!
I loved this reaction video, it was my first time seeing your channel. I checked it out because I saw Garth Brooks in the title, however, if you are going to be reacting to Garth, it has to Friends in Low Places, the full version; that is the song that put him on the map. The Thunder Rolls, The Dance, Ain't Going Down and Standing Outside the Fire are some of his best songs.
I have listened to Garth since he started. The dance is a tribute favorite to one of my best friends of 34 years. Two of a kind is one of my husband of 30 years and I songs. And much too young is my best friend of 33 years song. A good Country musician, spins a yarn or just tells a good story.
Ok so I'm late to this reaction. But the first time hearing Garth? You'll never be the same. His live concerts are fckn 🔥 🔥 🔥. He is an ultimate showman.
This is country's "she fucked about and found out" song. Country doesn't discuss outright murder much. "Cocaine" by Johnny Cash, "That Georgia Sun is blood red and going down" by Tanya Tucker and "The Night the lights went out in Georgia" by Reba are the ones that readily come to mind. Also "Country Folk can survive" by Hank Williams Junior.
The Netflix doc brought me here. I was wrapped up in rap and MJ when he was at his peak. So Im catching up and mad I missed out on this good music early on. Glad Im here now.
The writer of the song, the late Kim Williams, had a funny story about this song. Originally papa was supposed to be a train engineer. But he couldn't figure out out to get a train into the motel. So he had to change daddy into a truck driver!
Fun fact. This song is based on a true story. When they went to write it one of the writers threw a newspaper down and said "here's our next love song". Was a picture of a truck plowed into a notell motel. No survivors
I laughed so hard at this when you realized what the song was about. 😂😂😂 Welcome the world of every 90's kid raised on country music. We all love this song cuz it's upbeat and sounds fun, then you hit the age where you start understanding the lyrics, like what did he just say? 😂😂😂 We pretty much all had the same reaction you just did.

Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
Almost all garth brooks songs. When I got old enough too understand all the 90s country music it ruined everything like the song fancy 😆
I knew what it was about then. Listen to music for the message.
@@jenkinsbushae1063 I still love fancy. It's a story about overcoming the odds and hustling to make it in life. It's about not judging sex workers. It's a pretty awesome song.
Yep! Same with Thunder Rolls! Lots of cheating going on lol
Everybody knows Garth's Friend in Low Places!!
Only the live versions so you get the 3rd verse
@@donmartin7728 took the words right out of my mouth lol
Yes!
Yep friends in low places or the night I called the old man out
Gotta do the live version so you hear the 3rd verse!
He drove his rig into the hotel room that she and her lover was in.
@@rachel-in-the-208 Well, he seemed a little unclear on that, so I thought I'd help him out. But, for the most part, I think by the end he understood. I just posted too quickly during the reaction. LOL
Sherri Smith LOL - I was joking on the fact that he was confused ... I didn’t mean you 😁
@@rachel-in-the-208 Oh, I knew what you were saying. I wouldn't have taken offense even if you had meant me. I visit the land of confusion often! LOL
Yo your reaction when it hit you with the graveyard was priceless hahaha you hit us with the 😮
Yep
That look when you paused it and said HE KILLED HER?!? 😂😂😂😂
The thunder rolls
Well I love thunder Rolls he would have to listen to the unreleased version because there’s a huge extra verse that clears everything up
@@mrtoad8585 Otherwise known as the "Concert Version"
Thunder Rolls Live Version
Definitely listen with 3 verse. Same with Friends in low places, must hear 3rd verse.
In the long version (spoil alert) who dies? Does she shoot him or herself?
The actual story behind it is funny! The songwriter had a copy of a newspaper with a truck in a hotel and Garth pretty much said that is a country song lol
You are correct
No he was trying to finish one of his albums and his songwriter came in with that newspaper with the headlines of that truck slammed in the side of the motel, and when Garth asked him what he’s got, the songwriter said your new song and 10 minutes later they busted that song out at a diner
I loved when garh told this story. People were shook.

Justin Dar multiple nights even. He does have a Vegas show at Bellagio? too.
Reba McEntire "The night the lights went out in Georgia" and "Fancy".
A fun one is Ain't Going Down til the sun comes up. Calling Baton Rouge.. Friends in Low Places..live version if possible!!
My favorite Garth Brooks song is "The Dance"
❤️
that is a good one one of my favorites is the storm
Yeeeeessss! So many great Garth songs but this is in the top
Thunder Rolls, Rodeo, and The Dance are my favorites in order. Shameless is great too.
@Mike Mike What do you mean?
The Dance is a must listen Garth Brooks song
He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears. Legend right there.
I love the line " he never hits the brakes and he was shifting gears lmfao.
"Standing outside the fire" official video. Great song, but the video is a must.
So true!
Live version, video! Epic
"In Lonesome Dove," is a great Garth Brooks song. Great story.
One of my favorites.
I just love his reaction once he realizes all of it
Sux that Garth pulls his music from UA-cam but his music is amazing! My rockin’ favorites from Garth are That Summer; Standing Outside the Fire; Ain’t Goin’ Down (‘Til the Sun Comes Up); Callin’ Baton Rouge; Rodeo; and Two of a Kind, Workin’ on a Full House.

But his most powerful songs are Mom; The Thunder Rolls; The Night I Called The Old Man Out; We Shall Be Free; and The Change.
Totally missed "the beaches of cheyenne"...
Great list, but What about Cowboy Bill? Let's be honest, Garth only makes hits! That man is a genius.
A fun song is B Double E Double R U N ( beer run)
Standing Outside The Fire is one of my favorite Garth songs. Wild is the Wind, The Red Strokes.
Love Garth
Yes. He drove the diesel into the motel! Lol! You gotta do "And the Thunder Rolls" next. That's a great story too!
Watching your reaction to that was great!!! I've always though that song needed a third verse though. What great imagery through the lyrics. It's got everything an older country song needs, love, cheating, alcohol....love it!

That doesn't sound like it was being said as a compliment, coming from him.
No bad Garth Brooks songs!!! No. 1 selling artist of ALL-TIME!!!!
Only in the US. Elvis is actually the largest selling solo artist ever with over 1.2 Billion records sold worldwide. Alot of his early record sales in the US were done before the RIAA.
Elvis. Also had over a 20 year head start on him.
most are good there are a few i would skip.
My interpretation of the song is that he drove his rigs straight through their motel room. But then again and I'll honestly I am a truck driver
Mama was Thotting it up at the hotel and Papa crashed his truck into her room! Lol
I’d say both live versions of “Friends in Low Places” and “The Thunder Rolls” and you should also hear “Ain’t Going Down (Til the Sun Comes Up).”
Need to do Garth Brooks to young feel this old....he actually throws a praise to another sinker
Chris Stapleton Tennessee Whiskey is smooth and sounds like country jazz, and Jason Alden Dirt Road Anthem is def. worth a listen
Blake Shelton's Ol' Red is pretty much the sequel sung from papa's point of view afterwards
I think you mean, "They're going crazy on that STEEL guitar".
You missed about 3 E's...
Thank you
Garth Brooks has an insane amount of amazing songs. THe Storm, The Thunder Rolls, Shameless, just wow.
Also listen to ‘Rodeo’ and Tomorrow never comes’.
Garth has soooo many great songs!
Edit...the above comment was before I watched the reaction... 😂 😂 you were too funny!!
Garth has strict rules with his music so be careful
Facts.
Never seen a reaction to Garth stat up long due to that.
I bet the video will be taken down in a month when Garth finds out! 😂
Because that's not the Garth Brooks version of the song. It's some nobodies cover.
Tom Grove how do people not hear this????
Definitely try to find him doing The Thunder Rolls!!
The extended version!
Yes; The Thunder Rolls...mama’s reply. But yes, be careful as Garth holds his music close to his chest - and I don’t blame him!
This is why he has 9 diamond selling albums. Hes a hell of a story teller. Listen to The Thunder Rolls
That song was actually done by Tanya Tucker but she never released it on radio so Garth Brooks cut it and made it a hit then a few years later Tanya Tucker released her version of it

This was a great reaction. I'm superuser you actually found Garth. He doesn't key his Music on you tube much. Yes a great artist.
The Dance, Two of a Kind, Unanswered Prayers, Shameless
The best part of country music are the stories behind the lyrics and what it all means. Something I miss from the 90s rap.
And that was just 1 of the reasons why Garth was so popular. He took his songs places nobody thought he would go.
He has great songs but listen to his ultimate drinking song. “Friends in low places”
The Dance, If tomorrow never comes, Long neck bottle
Didn't think a song about a man murdering his wife could be so upbeat... My father really did kill my mother (a month before my 11th birthday) while they were separating and she was moving on... The biggest tragedy of my life and it was definitely not upbeat. I'm 36 years old with kids on my own and it's still affects me to this day. 😔
Thunder rolls is a great one by Garth Brooks
You are a ball of sunshine! Love your energy and sense of humor.
That "old diesel engine" was probably a screaming Jimmie aka Detroit Diesel turboed
Just stumbling in and had to cackle at that face. So happy, jamming away 'Mamas in the graveyard papas in the pen' *Almost hear the needle screech* I know this is a few years old but still...happy to see people discovering Garth even so recently.
I've known this song since the late 90's. A remix about the kids never even entered my mind. Genius!
It's country music no remix needed. Lots of family they are raising the kids. They just take a punch and move on. 🙂
"Some of you got them ,so dont even look at me like that" hahah lol
I got one...she's a free spirit. Haha
He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears
😂😂 OMG- the look in your face when you realized 😂😂
Your reaction was funny, especially when you said maybe she is actually being faithful.
Standing Outside the Fire! Favorite Garth jam
I'm impressed that you actually found Garth on YT, most of the time its impersonators outright claiming to be him.
That ain't Garth.
@@tomgrove6638 yea it is
@@whatarethose6159 no. It's not. Stop lying.
@@tomgrove6638 that’s clearly Garth bro hate to break it to you... go listen to the song on Amazon music and it sounds the same

Friends in Low Places!
Garth puts on the BEST libe shows!
Now one of my favorite messages from Garth is his video we shall be free it's amazing I doubt you'll ever find it
One EVERY kid can relate to....The Night I Called the Old Man Out
The lyric video are great. But, you really need to see the videos of his live performances. He's amazing on stage.
Garth " Thank God for unanswered prayers!
( p.s. you're adorable😁❤)
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
"HE NEVER HIT THE BREAKS AND HE WAS SHIFTING GEARS"....imagine an 18 wheeler cab coming straight at you in a hotel room....yeah....he killed her!!
4:30; the moment when you realize what he's talking about..
Mama's in the graveyard; Papa's in the pen.. (As in the penitentiary)

Thank God for unanswered Prayers is my favorite. It reminds me of a time in my life

“He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears!”😂😂😂
"The Thunder Rolls" ..... the version pulled off the radio at the time 😉
😂 the last verse “ he killed her “
😂 shit was funny
I love that you're lovin this ... I'm pretty sure it wasn't what you were expecting... lol
lol i needed this reaction. You are hilarious 🤣
Loved the reaction, and seeing you broaden your horizons.
Listen to The night I called the old man out by Garth.

Rodeo and Dancing Inside the fire is great
He’s got a bunch of really well written and interesting songs. I didn’t know he was not picking it up till the end. LMFAO.
An overlooked line, "he never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears" there was no hesitation he was going in at full speed and leaving no doubt
I love every song this man has sings
The kids are fine. Grandpa took them in. They grew up and had a smashing career singing country music all over the globe.
But have you heard "That's the Night the Lights went out in Georgia" by Reba McEntire?
This is a true story. Happened in Hawkins Co TN. Songwriter was Kim Williams.
The Chicks - Goodbye Earl 😁
Fun fact. This song is based on a true story. When they went to write it one of the writers threw a newspaper down and said "here's our next love song". Was a picture of a truck plowed into a notell motel. No survivors
The moment he realized the lyrics was a great moment
The end was a fiddle and his fiddle player is phenomenal
The Red Strokes, More Than A Memory, Learning To Live Again great songs
