I was riding on my mother's hip...she was shorter than the corn. And all the years I took from her...just from being born. One of the greatest lyrics of all time.

I grew up hating country. Now that I'm older, stuff like this, which yes i know isn't "country country", is what I mostly listen to. But really, anything with good songwriting. He's such a great writer.

If his guitar solo at the end doesn't ROCK you to your core and make your insides tremble, then you need to see a doctor. Absolutlely brilliant.

My wife and I saw Jason and the unit in Peoria a couple months ago and ladies at work said, "we haven't heard of him, what kind of music does he play?" My wife said, I guess it is country. At the show as Sadler and Jason were scorch the guitar on this song and many others I repeatedly said to her, "do you still think this is country music?" He is an excellent slide and regular guitar player and I love the axe work in this song.

I always thought Isbell was an incredible singer /songwriter but it was at 4:19 in this live version that he went from being a singer/songwriter to a rock star to me.. I just love it when he walks away at 4:19 puts down the acoustic and walks back real slowly to the mic with the electric guitar and then goes fucking bannanas. He sealed the deal for me when he looks over to Amada Shires and Derry Deborja at 8:29 and signals to close the song then lifts the guitar up and brings it down real slow to close the song.

Hey, thanks for the shout out to the lighting guy. I always say lighting should be felt, not seen. It shouldn't upstage the talent on stage but work in conjunction. I thought the lighting on this song was a good example of that.

This is my favorite song. My Mama was 18 when I was born. Jason is an amazing songwriter and singer, and the mournful slide solo pulls on every heart string. This is brilliance on every level.
@heatherprichard6564 3 жыл бұрын
For me, this song has always been an answer to the misogyny buried in FreeBird and the idea that women are disposable; that a musician could have one in every town. I know I'm seeing too much in it, probably much more than he intended this song to mean. My grandmother was 14 when my 25, at the time, grandfather got her pregnant the first time in 1933. With no education and no prospects, she stayed pregnant or nursing a baby for 33 of her 50 years. And him? All I can say is, Thank God for the TVA or they would've starved. I have no memory of her, but I think about her when this song plays. It is beautiful and amazing and Jason is an amazing writer.

Jason Isbell is such a poetic, incredible lyricist and songwriter that I sometimes forget what a MUSICAL MONSTER he is. And then I hear that guitar solo and it's like, oh, yeah, right, he's an absolute god among men.

This song has added meaning lately, given the repeal of Roe. "I was riding on my mother's hip, she was shorter than the corn. All the years I took from her, just by being born." Children of Children, indeed.

Once upon a long, long time ago there was something called "Country Music". It was sung by men called Jonny, Wille, Hank and women like Loretta, Dolly and Crystal. Their words spoke into your life and tugged at you soul...it sounded alot like this.

So there's the songs. Arguably the best living songwriter around. But the BAND. When I first saw them live a couple years ago, I knew it would be good. What I wasn't expecting was the unbelievable level of musicianship from every one of them. Two lead guitarists. Ridiculous rhythm section. Derry adding so much to the feel of every song. Amanda ofc--who I miss. But holy shit. Jason is legendary but The 400 Unit is fucking 🔥! If you're a fan but haven't been able to see them live--do it!
