The fiddle and accordion-driven sound of this song and album are uniquely American and incredibly good.

He was known to use a bunch of different instruments

Yup- it’s called Americana! Check out Gillian Welch!😊

John Mellencamp is a very unique musician and a lot of his songs capture the heart and soul of the American farmland and country life. The albums "Scarecrow," "The Lonesome Jubilee" and "Amercian Fool" are full of music to feed the soul! I grew up in the Australian countyside and many of his songs resonate with me!

Thank you guys so much for reacting to John, he has such great music! When you get the time would you please react to John's "Paper in Fire"? If possible, please react to the video....it just adds so much to an already fantastic song. Luv you guys and appreciate all the time and effort you put in!

@jamestate5059 2 жыл бұрын

The next song y'all have to do from John is RAIN ON THE SCARECROW and you should really watch the official video to help tell the story. The song and lyrics tell it great but then you get the visual and extra that really puts a stamp on the subject

@dagmar.6954 2 жыл бұрын

John's style of singing or genre is called heartland rock as he sang a lot about blue-collar, farmers & truckers themes. He has had so many hits especially in the 80's such as "Hurts So Good", "Jack & Diane", "Crumblin' Down", "Pink Houses", "Lonely Ol' Night", "Small Town", "R.O.C.K. In The U.S.A.", "Paper In Fire", "Wild Night" etc.

Man, the video for this is really, really good. Most of it features a teenage interracial couple slow dancing in front of a jukebox. He had to work to make sure that stayed in the video as an element, and it freaked some low IQ folks out. But it didn’t feel like virtue signaling; it was just two kids dancing like the old days, and they happened to be who they were. But the rest of it is his old home movies mixed with what may be some stock footage of growing up in the 70s. He really took care with his videos, and this is one of my favorites.

Honestly, while I think lyric videos are almost always the way to go with reaction videos, the actual music videos for Mellencamp's songs should normally be the first choice. They just always give you the vibe. Pink Houses, Small Town, Paper in Fire, Authority Song, R.O.C.K in the USA are all great choices for the next ones by him.

Hello Asia and BJ, love your choice of music. I'll say it again, you are just scratching the surface the music from the 60's to the 80's. I would have loved taking you two back to my time, it was better than you can realize. Great music was everywhere. Many concerts , tv, radio. Now I would like to recommend a great song from the 60's, ( ONLY THE LONELY ) by the FOUR TOPS. Please give this 71 year old a special memory

John Mellencamp was rebellious in his youth. Some of his other early hits from when he was going by John Cougar: "I Need A Lover (That Won't Drive Me Crazy) "Ain't Even Done With The Night" "Hand To Hold On To" "Authority Song"

“17 has turned 35. I’m surprised that we’re still living. If we’ve done any harm, I hope that we’re forgiven.” “Got a few kids of my own. Some days I still don’t know what to do. I hope that they’re not laughing too loud when they hear me talking like this to you”.

@christopherlievens8049 2 жыл бұрын

John Mellencamp absolutely hated the name cougar. That’s why he took it off his name. The record label made him add it to his name.

@brianjacob9084 2 жыл бұрын

He captures small town American life as good as anyone, one of the best songwriters in my humble opinion.

@AnthonyRodriguez-xe7cx Жыл бұрын

I am 66 years old, just yesterday I was at my high school friend's home, his name is Dave he's 65. We get together about once every 2 to 3 weeks and have lunch go back to his apartment and do nothing but talk about all the things that we did when we were young. Growing up a teenager in the 60s and 70s I think was the best time for anyone as a teenager. Of course maybe everybody says that except maybe those that grew up in the 90s and 2000s. And even though we tell the same stories over and over again to each other we still laugh like it just happened yesterday, consider that a blessing from God folks

This is probably my favorite JM song. I loved even more after I had kids and watched them grow up. I can relate to the song. He is known for writing about small town midwestern life. But I have come to realize he writes about the human experience. I grew up black in a large urban city in the south but I can personally relate to his music.

Great song very similar in context to "Night Moves" by Bob Seger. A little more country but just as impactful in taking one back to the carefree youth of days long past. One of my favorites from John Mellencamp ( don't call him Cougar, he hated it)
