Psychedelic country... Finally

Can't thank Yellowstone enough for bringing me here. Can't believe it's new to me, but I've experienced it now

Holy Shit! How have I not heard this version yet? 2014-2024! 10 years of Turtles!

What does the turtles mean he's asked? "It doesnt matter what you believe, they are all just theories. We don't know shit, so just be nice to each other." This guy is my hero.

I just want you to know that I hear you and I’m glad you’re alive.

"Loves the only thing that ever saved my life " Amen Sturgell! Love is the answer

I dont know why, but that first line always hits me differently. Love it

He is Bro country's worst enemy !

Am I the only one who prefers his acoustic version of this song WAAAAAY more than the album version?!?!

Mind altering country music! Love it!

I don’t know if words can even begin to capture how magnificent this song truly is

My heart swells with love and joy every time I hear this song.

Res Dogs brought me here. Beautiful show and amazing story

Original is, of course amazing, but I think this acoustic version is my favorite. The guitar licks on this version are beautiful.

This dude is legit.

thank god for youtube! i would never have found this genius!

Awesome song. Wish he would have told the whole story though... A well-known scientist (some say it was Bertrand Russell) once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the center of a vast collection of stars called our galaxy. At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: "What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise." The scientist gave a superior smile before replying, "What is the tortoise standing on?" "You're very clever, young man, very clever," said the old lady. "But it's turtles all the way down!" - Hawking, 1988

When you get chill bumps from music, its real music, Fuk'n A Strugill

Don't get much better than this dude

One of the coolest mother fuckers in country music IMO. One of the best country artists I've ever heard also.

3 years on sturgill, still mad it took me this long to find him. 🍻

Sturgil, Chris, Jason= that true-old-real-authentic as hell outlaw country music we so desperately need.

This guy's songs are cool, I'd never heard of him until I watched the Kevin Costner cowboy series ,then I listened to his other stuff, bloody excellent

Every now and again someone comes along and saves country music and most people don't even know who the fuck they are. Sturgill Simpson breathed that fresh old school sound back into country but he doesn't sing about what radio deems worthy so we're stuck with these little gems in KZfaq to remind us of what country music is and always will be. A man and his guitar singing honest songs. Peace, Love and Angel dust brother.

I adore when he goes into the "says my son" line

Thanks sturgil, you are a huge talent and have brought me back to country music.

Been a fan since my boy showed me them. Can't believe I've never seen this video. Strugill is the hero country music needs

Thank You Yellowstone, what a beautiful artist and song! I'm a new fan!

Truth resonates, no matter what the medium. May Sturgill continue to grace us with his truth for many, many years to come.

Amazing!!! Such Talent, great guitar skills and a great voice!

I've got a lot of playlists but this one gets a tight spot right next to top 8 still get goosebumps everytime I hear it 💥

brazilian rosewood sounds fantastic! You cant beat vintage Martin guitars

Standard tuning. E, A and B7. Three chords and the truth!

Again thank you Yellowstone My new favorite

Love sturgil Simpson ❤

Wonderful song, wonderful message.

The guitar playing in this cut is out of control good.

Thank you for making life bearable

I love this song. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

tell everyone you meet about sturgill

Love it , thank you Sturgill

Absolutely love this song! Obsessed

Me & Bobby McGhee, much? But seriously... I love love love Sturgill. Not talking shit. ❤️🤘🏻

Why am I here Cause I WAS bored shitless.... haha SMILE

Good man .good shit

Great version of a wonderful song!

This song is great, I love it

Thank you for singing the words I feel..I just didn't know how to process it.

I had never heard of Sturgill, a friend of mine tells me there is this new, "old school" Guy singing AND WRITING his own music and singing it even better in Myrle Haggard monotones.... and Better yet, he only uses like 3 chords to do so!! I absolutely listen to this song once a day, it takes me to a happy place, back to my childhood, where we didn't know what we didn't know. The old saying is how "Boy I sure would like to go back in time with the knowledge I have now" I would not want to do that for many reasons... but most, why would I want to go back, Is there Diet Mt. Dew back then? Just one of my many questions lol

Good lord, this is absolutely my favorite country song! It's funny being Latin and just loving that country draw in his voice. My Latin aunt married a Vietnam Special Forces guy from Virginia, Love you Sarah and David, just in case you see this, the clash of cultures is so beautiful and weird at the same time. The Confederate flag on my kins trucks are really not cool to me. But they're my kin and we make do. The ATV's and drinking definitely don't think that is smart. Stitches by family members at a party are definitely not funny in my book! To them it's a family gathering. To me I ask the question, country people have more fun than us in the cities? You don't have to ask me twice, I'm addicted to Hay Rides, and Pumpkin Patches, Picking apples from the trees, that is a simple life we never knew existed. I'm spoiled, bring on the Country for me! I love my extended Virginia family! Wish I could ride a horse like you guys do.

Sturgill and stapleton are the best

Love this!

Bill Hicks would fuckin love this song! 😂😂😂. Rest In Peace you brilliant bastard!

Love this song

WOW!!! Just awesome.

Turtle is my best friend

Loves' the only thing that ever saved my life

Lyrically one of the best songs ever written.

truly gifted

This guy gets it.

Good shit

Love us some Sturgill

Unusual (but excellent) lyrics for a country song. First heard of the turtles all the way down concept in the work of Ken Wilber.

And the moral of the story is, "Don't be a dick."

Closed caption is hilarious on this lol

Yellowstone🎬🎶

Very Good!..

Deadly!

I know a lot of people think he SOUNDS like Waylon...which he does, some...but this song sounds like something Waylon would have WRITTEN himself, especially from the "Dreaming My Dreams" era.

Turtles all the way down- The story actually is that, when the lady stated that the Earth was on the back of a turtle, she was asked what the turtle stood on. She replied another turtle. When asked what that turtle stood on, she said another turtle. When pressed further, she replied that it’s, “Turtles all the way down.”

Trying to find a better word than refreshing.. Millennials say woke and that’s good when said but, this kind of song is so overdue in modern popular western music it’s as much a breath of fresh air as it is unknown and not felt or heard right. As relieved as blessed to’ve heard and felt this brothers work. There is hope

A Real One.

Waylon Jennings vibes in the best possible way...

john green wrote a book with this song's title as the title of the book. hopefully it holds the same virtue of this song.

holy fuck

cinemassacre

Who The F*$k Is Sturgill Simpson. AWESOMENESS!!!!

They can play this at my funeral....

Amor Vincit Omnia

Is that a D28?

love how the mic stand blocks the view of his left hand fingerwork...thanks, mister camera dude - really, nice job :/

🌴😎💯

Funny my brothers never liked country and I do. But not lately lol. So..my brother ACTUALLY told ME about Sturgis. Lmao

JRE!!!

It's from the very beginning of the first chapter of 'A Brief History of Time' by Stephen Hawking. There's an anecdote about Bertrand Russell giving a lecture on astronomy. An old woman says that his talk is all rubbish.. the world is really on the back of a tortoise. And Russell asks, "What is the tortoise standing on?" to which she replies, "It's turtles all the way down."

🍀🏹😇🐺

Anyone know if this is standard tuning or open? Looks like an open tuning to me. Love this guy's music, so glad to see he can really play guitar!

Does anybody else feel the weight that he shared with his last glance?

amen me too bored shitless

Sturgill told us best life lesson.... don't be a dick

Like ants on a log by randy

I was bored shitless, I don’t live in that place anymore? So, is he saying he sank into ignorance? Because these lyrics are amazing!

dancing with a stranger sam smith

The earth is flat.

I learned that Discworld is based on an old Hindu myth today.

Yeah you was bored shitless AND you had plenty of time to Blast off a hundred times. I did the Farmawashca and I went to a reptilian spaceship and when it was over 3hours my life totally changed for the better. I feel like they cut me open and pulled out all my pain because the pain that I was having was the pain of addiction. I stopped dipping Copenhagen wintergreen that day I stopped drinking Coca-Cola and sodas that day I stopped eating red meat that day (I started back 2years after i did) It did all kinds of stuff to me man I can’t bite my fingernails no more I have to use clippers. Just to name a few. DMT is defragging software for the human brain. It sits you back to your nine years old when you got good sense about things But you have to do the ayeswaska or the FarmaWaska. When you blastoff you not in there long enough You gotta be in there for 3-4 hours

Sturgill Simpson and this song provide a perfect example of looking up to someone for their musical talent while, at the same time, feeling sorry for them in their personal life. How tragic! Can you imagine trading drugs for God in your life?

Sounds good but that's bull shit Jesus is your only way

Sorry Sturgill, but God is more than real. And he ain't no "nursery rhyme". You'll feel him some day
