Moved to the states about 40 years ago as a young refugee from half world away. Listening to fine music my Mel McDaniel what got me started in country. I bought my first cassette in mid 80’s in downtown New York. It had this song, Good ole Brew, Real Good Feel Good Song, Stand Up, Henrietta, and bunch of other ones. But unfortunately today, country is not what it used to be. Y’all stay safe.
How come country isn't like this anymore... Come on people!!! I play some crazy ones too.. lol I grew up listening to these greats.. No wonder I wanna play like them.
I remember riding with the dad and the fam. 1973 caprice estate wagon. Paul Harvey and great country tunes just like this. That’s my heaven, I know it ❤️🛐
There’s song 🎶 with certain beat and lyrics that stays in our brains for life thank goodness . Mel McDaniel songs always brings that hard bass sound . Waylon Jennings songs have hard bass to . I love it . Real Country for Rural Americans 🇺🇸

When I was younger, I loved but didn't understand this song. Now, at 40 years old, I've lived everything in it. Some of them, more than once. This is gold!
Hey... I know you posted this comment a long time ago. But I am a new viewer of Mel McDaniel, and am seeking clarity on exactly what he is talking about. To my untrained eye, it appears he endorsing date rape. Is that really what the song is about? If you don't reply, I will just assume it is. Thanks for your help.
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. It does seem to me that this song is about that. I appreciate your confirmation of my hypothesis, and would welcome any additional textual analysis..@@travisbaxter6597
I was teaching country western dancing in a club in Davie, Florida in the 80's and got to meet Mel in person after the show. He gave me a tour of their bus and then we sat in the back of it where he lived while on the road and we talked for a couple hours. Very cool man. A true country gentleman and as I was leaving, I gave him and hug and kiss bye. Memories I treasure now so many years later. RIP my friend.
Yep I remember this one. Lee Roy Parnell. Mark Knofler and chet Atkins poor boy blues. Hell I remember the Allman brothers seven turns being played on cmt circa 93. Used to play all kinds of great music. But....like every other music channel
Been thru all of this in 25yrs. My son (15) is appreciating Clasic "country" now. he work 6 hrs a night Playin Classic country. Saw Mel mcdanielright b efore he died took my son, who was 6 and remembers this song Yet. :) priceless
I remember hearing songs from Mel McDaniel. On March 31, 2011 God wanted Mel McDaniel 2 go 2 Heaven. So God took him 2 Heaven. Mel McDaniel is pain free, sorrow free, suffering free and he's all better and all new. "Country Music uh we'll see Mel McDaniel again someday when God calls us 2 Heaven".
My t.v. went out ten days ago,I turned on my radio and heard Ole possum.like the drifter and so many C.and W. Rock,and all of them favs. Who needs TV and all that mess,oh yes,old Gospel never goes out of style,thank you kindly from TEXAS.
In my opinion Mel McDaniel is one of the if not THE most underrated Country music singer ever . I for one was completely floored at the beauty of some of his content and the fact I’d never even heard most of it before was baffling! Where were you hiding all these years, Mel?!
Never hear this one but, like Shoestring, it pure country. Just like country is supposed to be. I see below Mel has passed on....that's a shame. I really like his music.
Gailard Sartain from Tulsa. He was a regular on HeeHaw and was in 3 of the Earnest movies as well 40+ other movies and tv shows.. He's now retired from acting.
My soon to be wife at the time went to see him at a local high school don't know how they booked him but man what a night my throat was sore from singing along all night R.I.P Mel thanks for everything
He was really great. He was one of my mom's favorites. Hearing his music brought back a lot of memories. He is dearly loved and sadly missed. He left a lot of great music behind. He was so full of life and energy. He was really great
I will never forget hearing my Mom sing this at a Wedding Reception “after party”, in WV, that’s when they have the real party. She was singing, and when she said “STAND UP”, Sandy Colgrove jumped up and said I testify, I testify ! Then Stanley Perry jumped up and said, “Oh Hell Briza, we all know I did, at least twice” GOD BLESS ~MEL McCDANIEL , “After Parties”, Uncle Jerry’s Punch and Logan County, WV !!
Your so right! That statement was actually told me ( about 25 years ago) by a woman that said exactly what was on her mind! This song makes me think of her!
HAD THE HONOR OF MEETING THIS BEAUTIDUL MAN IN N.C YEARS AGO.HE BROUGHT THE HOUSE DOWN.WE SHOOK THE CONCREAT BUILDING.HE WAS SO SICK THAT NITE BUT GOD BLESS HIM.HE GAVE US A ONCE IN A LIFE TIME EXPERIENCE THAT I SHALL NEVER FORGET.GOD BLESS DEAR🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 BEAURUFUL 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇 MISTER MELVIN MCDANIEL.LOVED YOU MORE SINCE THAT NITE.MY HUSBSAND & I LEFT THAT TOWN AFTER THE SHOW IN TEARS.WE KNEW WE HAD TRULY SEEN A GOOD AND WONDERFUL MUSICIAN WHO NOT ONLY CAN DO A GREAT SHOW BUT TRULY A CHRISTIAN. LOVE YOU MEL🏹💜🏹💜🏹💜🏹💜😂💜🏹💜
Mel is gone? I found country music in my 20's, and I'm 62 now, and I loved this song! CMT was my favourite! I am disabled and couldn't afford cable in over 20+ years, and in that time a lot of good people (singers) died. And I never knew. Mel, you are sadly missed. Sob.....
This is country music. Not the stuff on the radio today.

Dude that's awesome. Just in case no one has said it, welcome 🤙
This is the country music i grew up listening to! Great memories
Me too
I still listen to it on UA-cam, daily.
Only one of my relatives had satellite TV so they would record CMT on vhs and everyone else would borrow it and pass it around
Same here
@@BrothaAustin good old VHS 📼 tapes! Thank you for sharing that, #standup
Mel McDaniel is perhaps one of the most underrated Country artists of all time. So many great songs... 2021 and its still not old.
Yep!
I found his music some days ago and I'm addicted to them now... amazing man
I second that
I 💘 Stand Up and Baby's Got Her Blue Jeans 👖 On! Should I add his greatest hits to my collection? I'm a "old school"🏫 Country fan!
2022 and still strong

Best karoke song lol and it’s easy to change words to suit whose in the bar
@@sisterrose6830 Haha, that's awesome. What words do you change and for whom??
WD do the right thing. Use the plat form
Get ur DoffUrMind
Back when country music was real country music. Not the junk of today.
Amen that is very true
You said it!
Agree 💯
Funny, that's what Mom and Dad said back then, when they'd hear Johnny Cash or Loretta
Agree
May Mel McDaniel RIP. He was a really great singer and one that will be truly missed for years to come.

THIS IS SOME OF BEST COUNTRY MUSIC AROUND. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤🥁🎸👍👍👍👍
Hello Pamela, how are you doing??
One of the Greatest
I grew up listening to these Awesome Musicians. Theirs not to many left those new Country Singers can never fill these Classics!!

Hi Jeff - “I agree!” Jonny Weiss “Burning Man.” 🔥 🎶
That's exactly what I'm doing right now 🤠

Great song. Smiling Mona Lisa, loaded up your Visa, and took a bartender home is one of the all time great lyrics.
That guitar solo was fantastic!Some of todays country musicians could not even try to do that!
really?
My dad had this on 8 track. We listened to it on our way to dad favorite fishing spot!
Station wagon with wood paneling on the side😂
this is what country music is all about... TRUE REAL country
His music and music videos can make you feel like you were there. He was really great
I was raised listening to Hank Sr and Hank Jr
I grew up on this kind of music, guess I'm going to grow old still listening to it
This deserves a replay.
I start singing this anytime I hear someone say...stand up
Always
Loved Gailard Sartain (39 yrs old in video) in this and on Hee-haw. Always loved the singing of Mel McDaniels 🤠
R.I.P. Mel, you'll be missed. Your music will live on. Stand up...Testify! :)

I love listening to this song. No matter how my day is going. It takes me back. RIP Mel McDaniels
I stood up hallelujah praise God

I remember seeing this guy in the Ryman as a kid when he sang a patriotic version after 9/11...powerful memory, the crowd was super into it.
I love utube it brings back memories and songs I never heard but end up loving them thank you
I played with Mel's steel player one afternoon in southern MN. What a treat...

This brings back memories of the 80s, the early days of CMT, when every so often they'd play "Let It Roll" and "Stand Up" together
I know right.
Stand up testify.
Had a decent run on TNN as well.
Yep I remember this one. Lee Roy Parnell. Mark Knofler and chet Atkins poor boy blues. Hell I remember the Allman brothers seven turns being played on cmt circa 93. Used to play all kinds of great music. But....like every other music channel
