Johnny Cash - A Boy Named Sue (Live at San Quentin, 1969)
First time listening
#johnnycash #shon
He recorded this at San Quentin Prison. That’s why the audience is having such a great time ☮️💜👵🏼
That's why? It's wouldn't have been received as well any other way?
Yes, but this was at a time when no normal live recordings could have gone that way. Johnny Cash's San Quentin recordings were quite abnormal, as such! I really love that whole record, and I wasn't even born at the time, I think. But it was one of the early records I found in my family's extended record collections before I reached my mid-teens
The beloved children’s poet and cartoonist Shel Silverstein wrote this song and this performance was the first time Johnny and his band played it - in front of a bunch of prisoners. Great stuff.
I never knew Shel Silverstein wrote this!
@@bethosbornefischer3315 He wrote a bunch of songs for Dr. Hook too, including “Sylvia’s Mother” and “Cover of the Rolling Stone,” plus Waylon Jennings’ “The Taker,” Loretta Lynn’s “One’s on the Way,” lots more!
Oh wow! Thats amazing
Shel has some of the nastiest songs ever written, a legend.
Is there a video of you checking out the song ragged Old flag by Johnny Cash?
This song was written to be funny. Johnny Cash is his real name. He had so many great songs."Walk the Line", "Ring of Fire", "Folsom Prison Blues", and on and on.
Interestingly, "real" is sort of nebulous there.
His birth name was J.R. (no actual first name just initials)
When he joined the Air Force, they didn't allow initials on the form, so he used John R Cash instead. Then he started using Johnny for his music career. But he seemingly never actually went through any form of legal name change procedure, he just changed it and that was that.
This is Gangster country LOL Johnny served time- he is the real deal
Johnny Cash was not only a country artist, but a great story teller.
Johnny Cash is not a typical artist. Love your reaction to this classic.
Understand, Johnny Cash is the real deal, member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Country music usually tells stories, make you laugh, just like you are in this song. Hurt by Johnny Cash can bring you to tears or just a great story he does is the Legend of John Henry. Great reaction.
The legacy of Johnny and June Carter Cash ( His Wife ) is an amazing rabbit hole to go down . They have a lot of songs together worth checking out . There is also a Movie about Johnny and Junes Life called I Walk The Line . That will really give you some insight into his life . He started out with Sun Records ( Same as Elvis ) around same time they where friends . His last video was shot at his home just a month before his wife died and just 4 months later Johnny passed away . The song is called Hurt . Hurt was actually a Nine Inch Nail ( NIN ) song . Trent the original singer was amazed by Johnnys Version . He said it was like Johnny could have written it back in the 60’s .
Songs to listen too Man In Black ( Live Version )
Ring Of Fire
I Walk The Line
Folsom Prison Blues
I’ve Been Everywhere
Sunday Morning Coming Down
Jackson ( with his wife June )
It’s not a true story about Johnny Cash. Just a made-up story set in the Wild West. Actually, his real life was a lot harder. He’s lived through much heartache.
Yeah... if it were a true story, we would have heard a song by Sue Cash 😀
Now you’re ready for his “Cocaine Blues” live. Great and very surprising song.
Yo..thank you!! Cocaine Blues is such a badass song!
😄 They’re laughing because they already know this song.
His song "Man Comes Around" wouldn't disappoint you
This song was written by the great Shel Silverstein who wrote a number of hits, (many for the group Dr. Hook). He did cartoon work for Playboy magazine, and also wrote highly acclaimed children's books.
This song, if I recall correctly wasn't quite complete when Johnny sang it for the San Quentin Prison population, and he had to read the lyrics as he went. He later recorded it with a few more lyrics added on.
Story telling. That's what Johnny Cash did. Every song he performed could be made into a movie. I think you'd enjoy "one piece at a time".
Johnny Cash had county songs but wasn’t your typical one. He was more of a storyteller and he was great at it
I'll give this video a like for sure, and you know what? If you're cool enough to be listening to Johnny Cash *and* you're sharing that genuine moment with us, well shit. I guess I *should* subscribe.
Everyone.
It's just one more name in your subscribe bar. Just give it to the man.
You mentioned that this was not the "country" you had expected. You will eventually come to understand that country music has as many or more themes, topics, musical & vocal styles as Baskin-Robbins has ice cream flavors! Lol!
Story time with Johnny Cash - priceless!
I appreciate you coming up with one thing to say before "Tractors".
Johnny Cash Is Legendary!!!
What a legend is the man in black, Johnny Cash was one of a kind for sure.
I'm enjoying your reactions. I can see that you enjoy story telling songs. One of the greatest Canadian story teller, singer song writers name Gordon Lightfoot recently pasted away. His most unique story telling song is called 'The Wreck of The Edmund Fitzgerald'. I also love 'Sundown'.
Cheers from the Canadian Prairies!
I think I gave my boys good names.. they are 12 years apart.. but I have a Chirstopher and a Shane... they are 35 and 23 now... and my boys are doing great.. I'm blessed.
Old country is a lot more gangster than what country is now. Bar fights, gun shots and drinking, country back then was dope!
😂 Welcome to Outlaw Country! This is classic outlaw country gold. This man is a legend.
Great reaction, Shon! It was fun that you couldn't figure out whether this was a sad or a funny song. To see both ends of the spectrum with Johnny Cash check these out:
Johnny Cash sings "The Junkie's Prayer" (4:45)
Roy Clark And Johnny Cash - Orange Blossom Special 1978 (3:56)
I love your reactions. The story isn’t true and the reason they are laughing is it was recorded in San Quentin Prison, those are hard core criminals he’s singing to
He is the one and only GOAT
It Starts with: Why are they laughing? ...............& then: Shon ends the reaction laughing his a$$ off, lol
They used to play this on the radio all the time and I saw Cash perform this on TV back then. This would not fly today. It would be something phobic.
Ray Stevens used to do some funny shit too.
My parents felt the same way as you. So they named me James Richard Wilson and have had several people say my name is a name of power. Which is King King President by names. Although, I started deaf I managed to struggle my way through life. Currently creating my own comic book, but I do love a good story.
Yeah, its live at san quentin prison in1969...someone already said it , but , yeah, those dudes will laugh at anything
Johnny Cash was the first country singer I remember dying (in 2003). It was just before school when they made the announcement on the radio. They played a lot of his music that day:
Cash,. The Man..
Jhon Henry is another great story
This is a fun song when men were men and women were women. It's tragic watching society regress. Love and respect, brother, hog fam Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
Meanwhile he's playing a song about violence and murder to an audience of convicts who cheer the hardest for the references to violence and murder, probably because half of them are psychopaths, lol. It's a joke I get it, but if this is when men were men, you can keep it. Maybe save that speech for another song.
You mean back when men were socially acceptable chauvinist pigs, and women went along with it.
Incredible storytelling
This is old country there were loads of dark stories and it’s just a story,the prisoners are loving it
Love your reaction at the end!!!
Cash is a legend. ⚡
i dont care what anyone says. Cash was the first rapper. he is rapping to the beat in this song and even more in the song "Get rhythm"
You need to now listen to Johnny Cash really singing. Folsom Prison Blues or Ring of Fire will be the most popular suggestions, my personal favorite is If I Were a Carpenter which he sang as a duet with his wife.
Loved your commentary on this old song. Remember it from when I was a kid long ago. Thanks for your reactions and willingness to listen to country and realizing some music is not what you expect. Had a good laugh, thanks
Johnny cash is a legend. To know him more watch the movie walk the line. You won’t be disappointed
Great story, clever words, wonderfl delivery.
Awesome reaction bro I love Jonny Cash he was one of the great’s, icon and legends in in music, He actually new and recorded with ELVIS back in the 50s called “ Million Dollar Quartet “ 👍
Music genres are like languages. You can speak country, you can speak metal, you can speak rap, and you can say the same thing in every language.
If you wanna hear some more funny country songs (with great videos!) I highly recommend Toby Keith. My favorite from him is "As Good As I Once Was".
love reacting to people reacting to things I listened to 30 years ago You are the man, keep it up bruddah
Hi..i first heard this song I the radio with my brother when i was 10 & though I'm a rock&roller been a fan of J. Cash for 50 years my favorites are
Cocaine Blues
25 minutes to go
The blizzard
All his songs are great plus his acting. But i like those two the most cause they aren't conventional and they're awesome.❤ mainstrem
:) :) I don’t think anyone saw that coming! Lol
Some of us were ready to name our boys Sue! haha. Great reaction! :)
Some had bumper sticker that read "Life Ain't Easy for a Boy named Sioux"!
This is live at San Quentin prison.
His producers said not to do the shows in prisons but he went in and did free shows in San Quentin
His name is pretty much JR Cash.. this is just a song that he sang
Story tellers Marty Robbins: El Paso, it's part of a trilogy
You made this so much fun. 😅 Another great reaction, Shon!
Elvis introduced June Carter to Johnny Cash and they were married for the rest of their lives
Not a true story 😂 A funny story. Johnny is a country music legend. And he was a good man who cared about people and the world. If you want to know more about him listen to The man in black. He recorded 2 albums in prisons while giving free concerts to prisoners . Folsom prison blues and Hurt are great songs too
You really need to see the video of him singing in Folsom Prison Blues,He wrote the song and he done time in that Prison, you won't be disappointed, Thank You Sir for your reaction hope you have a blessed evening 🙏 sending love from Lafayette Georgia 🍑
LOL!!! I assure you this is not a true story! Haha! You see, songwriters in those days had what was commonly referred to as "imagination," thereby creating colorful, interesting stories in song -- sometimes sad, sometimes funny, sometimes thought provoking. That's what Johnny Cash could do, unlike many of the dull-witted nitwits of today who pass themselves off as (heh-heh-heh) "musical artists." This "talking song" is hilarious! It is the use of absurdity at its artistic best! It amazes me how today's generation take songs of the past so literally and with such overblown seriousness. Lol! It's true that the 50's, 60's, and 70's had its share of problems & dark days. But the songs, the music, the folk ballad stories, etc., for the most part, kept us lighthearted, carefree, upbeat, and hopeful in what could sometimes be a maelstrom of societal/cultural turmoil. By the way, I enjoyed your reaction, and I'm not picking on you. I believe you finally "got it" near the end. I've seen this interesting response from dozens of Millennial and GenZ reactors!
Johnny also does a song called "The Ballad of Ira Hayes". You might want to check it out.
A great artist! Lol great song 😂 great reaction
He was singing this song In a Men's Prison!!!!!!!!!!!!
You need to check out Johnny cash Chattanooga city limit sign. I haven't seen no one react to this song yet you will get a good laugh.
Great reaction. I with you on the name thing.
They do call him The Man in Black. ☺❤
Man in black, Hurt and for more humor, One piece at a time.
Cash...the original outlaw country.
I've loved this song since it first came out and I hear it at least once a day, it is on my playlist! FABULOUS reaction Shon! You can't go wrong with Johnny Cash, Try "One Piece at a Time" now! Awesome song and story!
My name is Loren. Which is male spelling. I love this song since I was called a girl name. I fought my whole childhood. Masterpiece
The song the man in black. Johnny cash. Would love to hear your take on it. Ty😊
Jay-Z loves johnny cash...johnny is hardcore, lol, he always was since the 1950’s.
THEIRS A VERSE BEEN OMMITED FROM THIS WHICH IS THE BEST VERSE
I love your reaction and country music is dope
you gotta do johnny cash man in black!
Country music has a real skill of telling a story. I'm going to suggest some that you might enjoy:
"One Piece At A Time" --Johnny Cash. He has several great ones but I saw this already in the comments and wanted to echo the suggestion.
"Coward of the County" -- Kenny Rogers
"That's My Story" -- Collin Raye
"Copperhead Road" -- Steve Earle
Keep up the fun reactions.
Folsom Prison Blues is required listening for any Johnny Cash listener, if there's only one Cash song to know, it's Folsom Prison Blues
Wish you had a Rumble channel!
I had to rewind this to watch your reaction over again on "Bill or George anything but Sue"
They left out the part "some gal would giggle and I'd turn red. Some guy would laugh and I'd bust his head".
He hard part if not all control on the song writing. Man in black song will give you an insight to Johnny Cash real quick.
You mentioned you thought country was about love etc. listen to George Jones"Grand Tour " and"He stopped loving her today "
Check out anything from Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison (1968). It is a live show from the prison that is the epitome of his style back then.
This is more like older country: storytelling is paramount.
Jerry Reed was a great story teller... she got the goldmine i got the shaft...
Kind of like how everyone named Dmitri is really smart
Check out Blachberry Smoke and if you listen to gospel look at Mercy Crossing church Martinsville VA. I played the bass about 10 years and my wife still sings. These are some of the best I’ve ever been around. If you can play live you can play. It’s a very professional group.
Hello from Cody Wyoming. You're awesome keep it up...he actually was in prison
I've got the album Live at San Quentin prison.
They’re laughing because it’s funny.
Roy Buchanan COUNTRY BOY.
Its just a comedy song , which you can appreciate
Yeah, a person’s name is something. I’m named after my father. His father was a first generation American. I have a 8:32 German ethnic name.
The band jay and the American and with the song come a little bit closer. Another older story based song. Funny as heck.
Cocaine Blues would be another one of his songs definitely worth a reaction video.
Check it out man, Amos Moses for example. But good Lord Mr. Ford for sure.
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
May I suggest another great country song by Trace Atdkin ,
Song is.
🎶You're gonna miss this 🎵 🎶
"The official video"
You gonna love this one too
Keep the good work my friend
✌️ 👏 🙌 💪🏻 👍🏻
For Johnny Cash's biography check out the movie Walk The Line (2005).
in my family -- for many generations -- we have had a long string of rules about how to name your children.
This story is the definition of "tough love" lol
that video was recorded in a penitentiary.. the audience you see there are all inmates.. lol
tough love xD
Try out Johnny Cash "Hurt". The last song he recorded before he passed away. WARNING! Have tissues ready. Very few people can listen to and watch the video without weeping. "A Boy Named Sue" is one of many funny country songs. Not all country is crying in your beer music. Also try out Ray Stevens "Mississippi Squirrel Revival" and "The Streak". He is a comedian/singer with some of the funniest songs you'll ever hear.
