This song has given me goosebumps for 40 years. Back in the day this song appealed to people of all colors and musical tastes. Everyone likes a good "devil beating" song.

Charlie was adept on fiddle, mandolin, electric bass, guitar and I think banjo. He played on all kinds of peoples recordings going back to the late 50s. I know he played guitar and bass on I believe 3 of Bob Dylan's albums, and also on a Leonard Cohen album to name a couple. Charlie was an outstanding guitar player. Back around I think 1980 he had an accident. He was using a power post hole digger to put some new fence on his place. His shirt sleeve got caught up in the auger and nearly tore his arm off. Broke his right arm in several places and busted up 2 or 3 fingers on the right hand. He was unable to play for about 4 or 5 months. When he rehabbed and was ready to play again, he still didn't have full dexterity in the right hand to play guitar, but he could hold a bow, so he played a lot more fiddle for a while and I guess it became his trademark. RIP Mr. Daniels. Like the devil found out, you were the best there's ever been. Love your reactions Kristin. Always a treat for the ears and the eyes. Stay safe y'all!!

Bless him.He cleaned it up.He usually says"I done told you once you son of a bitch,I'm the best that's ever been"

R.I.P. american legend charlie daniels....this live version, in his 70s, as good as he ever performed it.

Most epic song in country music history. Second to none

Not a huge country fan, but another good country song is Seminole Wind by John Anderson. Charlie Daniels is a living legend for how great of a story teller and fiddle player he is.

Charlie daniels version is by far my favorite. Thanks for all your reactions u r really helping us deal with all the stuff thats going on u rock

Cap forward yeehaw! 😎💕 Awesome song.... And he play like he possessed by the devil 👿... I loooove it! 💕

The first battle wasn't about rap..it was a fiddle battle lol Rip Charlie,real good guy. I seen them live years back at aarowhead stadium in kansas city at some religious thing my grandparents took me to lol. I hated it but I was rocking to Charlie Daniels

RIP Charlie Daniels. I watched his whole funeral. I am still grieving. He was pretty wild in his young years when he came out with this song. He became a Christian later and was a strong man of Faith for the rest of his life. He was very outspoken about it 😘

Charlie Daniels is a straight up legend. There are few songs that are really cross-genre but this is one. This is real country but even people who barely recognize country know Charlie and this song. When Charlie did this with Mark O'Connor, that was awesome.

Rest in peace Charlie Daniels

It makes me happy to listen to this song but also to see another generation smile at its beauty. Thanks for the great reaction.

Thanks for reacting to Charlie. there are very few country artists I listen to. He Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash is it

You should never stop in the middle of a solo.

Marty Stuart now he's got some good music too. Who don't enjoy listening to this fiddler in the band though. This's such a kick ass song. 🎻😈 Enjoyed this 💯💯

I preferred his first performance of the song. RIP Charlie Daniels :-(

R.I.P.- Charlie glad THAT You-'were- 'SAVED', later in life. See Ya in HEAVEN, Son ...

Made those beautiful eyes sparkle even more! 😎

Charlie always puts on a great show.

I grew up listening to Charlie n Lynard Skynard n hank n Johnny cash

Back in my school daze (lol), we listened to our Zeppelin, Sabbath, etc, but not many 'playlists' was complete without this song. B^)

Gotta love Charlie Daniels :)

Masterpiece!

OMG! This brings back memories! I used to clog to this song!

Reminds me of the Navy 1979. It never gets old.

He's an awesome guitar player also

Amazing indeed!

Hell yeah!

You should react to The Devil Comes Back To Georgia, the sequel to this song.

MY goodness she is beautiful. Oh I am a rap fan but I love this one

if you want a story check out Charlie Daniels "Uneasy Rider" 1973

Breaks strings and keeps on going.

Can't beat the original

The best way to appreciate his music is to simply let his song play all the way through, NON STOP, START TO FINISH, PLEASE, AND THANK YOU !!!!! STOP INTERRUPTING THE MUSIC JUST TO TALK... YOU GET A THUMBS DOWN FOR INTERRUPTING THE LATE GREAT CHARLIE DANIELS, DOING HIS ABSOLUTELY BEST LIVE VERSION EVER, ON THE NIGHT HE WAS MADE A MEMBER OF THE GRAND OLE OPRY !!!!! IF CHARLIE KNEW THAT YOU INTERRUPTED HIM JUST TO TALK, HE WOULD BE FURIOUS WITH YOU !!!!!

charlie Daniels loved music and said go for it with no lawyers

Rip Charlie

Love!!! That's all I can say

R.I.P.

He is the man on fiddle. Took up maddilin first. Same fret pattern. He can play anything though

When you know, you know. 😉😎♥️

classic

Charlie died today, 7/6/20, of a stroke at age 83. Would you mind playing this again?

Love this song. get er done 😂

I loved your reaction. For your own amusement not neccesarily for a reaction look up “the devil went down to jamaica” its hillarious spoof

Kristin - The Levellers do a great version of this.

charlie daniels is a certified preacher, little known fact

Would you do In America with Charlie Daniels Band

Le recomiendo la versión de 1979 en Saratoga.

Did you EVER see the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou"? Dan Tyminski is a member of "Union Station", known for being Allison Krauss's backup band. Dan was also chosen as the "singing voice" for George Clooney in the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ppN0mdaFtLjThIE.html

Van Halen eruption 🌋 another great solo performance of all time please do it for me pretty eyes

Hey sorry I haven’t got the chance to like yo videos or comment

The remake with No Life Shaq was great but nothing seldom compares to the origanal.

Is funny

Please react to Charlie Daniels . Wooley Swamp, awesome song

Can you react to "3 in the morn" by Dbangz? Good vid btw

Dirty Harry has his gun and Charlie has his bow ...proud sponser of the slay your demons show

Originally he called the Devil a Son of a B****, instead...

Listen to some Hawaiian 🌺 music Kalapana and C&K

React to Australian Adam brand party down under

React to Teddy Swims mercy mercy me.

I love old school country like Waylon and David Allan Coe, but I feel like you might like Atmosphere, kinda local twin cities rappers Atmosphere. Look up the waitress official video or the loser wins again

By the way I’m back toots. so get ready. here I come again 😂

Like a cartoon

Please react to Orion by Metallica. your favorite band 😂

This is the worst version--live or recorded-- I've ever heard. If you want the real deal find the Farmer's Aid or Saratoga versions with Taz on the keys. At Saratoga Taz was playing with his left arm in a cast and it didn't slow him down one bit.

This is not a very good version. I would have gone with either the studio or one where he was younger.
