damn that part from 0:00 - 3:48 goes off

That Tyler Childers be hitting different when your a couple beers in.

After 5 year battle with cancer, my precious husband passed away on June 1. He would sing this song to me often. I will forever cherish those memories and this song.

“If I’d known she was religious than I wouldn’t have came stoned, to the house of such an angel, too fucked up to get back home”. Too real for today’s country music

This is the first time I've heard this guy sing. Never had even heard of him before. This discovery was better than my actual Christmas

To Tyler Childers. Today we buried Riley Boatright in Oklahoma. He was killed playing football for Lexington Jr. High last Tuesday. His girlfriend lived in Purcell Oklahoma just across the river. This song was his favorite song the day he died. Thank you for giving him a dream he will never see.

I am an immigrant from Nepal. Very much into 90's American thrash metal. But a while ago a friend of mine from Minnesota introduced me to Tyler Childers. This shit is just awesome. I can play this on loop a 1000 times and never get tired. One more thing to love about America.

I thought I didn't like country music. Turns out I just haven't been listening to the correct country music. Edit: People keep liking and responding to this a year later, so today I had a thought related to a response someone left. If there’s a genre of music you think you don’t like, take just a couple minutes to look for uncommon examples and sources of that genre. You might find your next favorite song. If you still don’t like it, then more power to you.

Finally, proof that gingers have souls.

Sometimes I wonder if my cat realizes how extremely lucky he is to live in a home that listens to Tyler Childers every single day of his life 😊. He could have ended up in a Florida Georgia Line's fans house.

Sober 100 days and can honestly say Tyler hits even better with a clear head. #Makecountrymusicgreatagain

Sometimes I get mad when I find music that I love years later I could have been enjoying this for so long

That lap steel player is absolutely demolishing this track. Awesome performance

Keep it outlaw ole son! Don't let Nashville get to you.

I would pay $100 to see Tyler Childers walk into a venue, lean into the mic and holler "thicket."

I can't stop listening to this song! Seriously, I have probably listened to it 100 times in the last few days. It's that good.

ATTENTION record executives, this is how i want my music to sound. This mans voice is amazing, you don't have to do anything just let him sing.

You ever hear a song and immediately it touches you right to the core? That's what this song did for me 💖

My little brother took his own life in July, He loves and cherished this song not because of a woman..he relates it to his addiction. It’s wild how such a beautiful song can be interpreted so many ways. I love you Matt mays you will forever live on

Shout out to the bass player harmonizing so well with Tyler.

Tyler Childers- “Thicket!” Grady Smith- 😎

That opening line is genius.

My son turned me onto Tyler Childers with his songs and he just passed, but his memory will live on for me through these songs. Thank you for so much for this bond I could have with my son before his passing, Tyler Childers. It reminds me of him and I can listen to this song and feel him with me. Thank you so much.

As a southerner who never really liked country.. I take it back. Tyler Childers is the closest we have to a modern day country great. He’s going to be looked at as a Hank Williams, Johnny Cash type.

I never knew I liked country music until I found this guy. All I have ever heard is that bullshit that people listen to just to fit in. This is real music, Ive been listening to this guy nonstop for about a month now.

no one: literally no one: me, randomly, at work: "I'd go runnin' through the THICKET!"

Well my buckle makes impressions On the inside of her thigh There are little feathered Indians Where we tussled through the night If I'd known she was religious Then I wouldn't have came stoned To the house of such an angel Too fucked up to get back home Lookin' over West Virginia Smoking Spirits on the roof She asked ain't anybody told ya That them things are bad for you I said many folks have warned me There's been several people try But up till now, there ain't been nothing That I couldn't leave behind Hold me close my dear Sing your whispering song Softly in my ear And I will sing along Honey, tell me how your love runs true And how I can always count on you To be there when the bullets fly I'd run across a river just to hold you tonight Well my heart is sweating bullets From the circles it has raced Like a little feathered indian Callin' out the clouds for rain I'd go runnin' through the thicket I'd go careless through the thorns Just to hold her for a minute Though it'd leave me wanting more Hold me close my dear Sing your whispering song Softly in my ear And I will sing along Honey tell me how your love runs true And how I can always count on you To be there when the bullets fly I'd run across a river just to hold you tonight

I’m a puertorican Dominican 27 from Yonkers ny I heard this song in rehab in Mississippi and lady may and grindstone and I just hope Tyler keeps putting out music

This song literally filled me with such longing that I reached out to someone whom I had turned down out of fear, and I asked him out and now we’re 5 dates in 😊

Please, everyone, let’s take a minute to appreciate how honest this man’s music is. The lyrics are SO REAL.

When he sings "I go running through the thicket" goosebumps, everytime!

Am I the only one that thinks he could completely crush genres other than country?

Lets take a moment to appreciate the steel guitarist... hot damn

"If I known she was religious then i wouldn't have came stoned to a house of such an angel to fucked up to get back home." That gets me everytime..

He did it. He got a 55 year old grammar stickler to sing ‘wouldn’t have CAME sto ne d’

Times getting short for me glad I heard this dudes music before I'm gone

The pure, genuine Appalachian Hillfolk feel of this man’s music keeps drawing me right on in. Don’t get no more real, as far as I’m concerned.

Drake fans - “Runnin through the 6” Childers fans - “THICKET”

"Be there when the bullets fly, I’d run across the river just to hold you tonight" Has got to be one of my favorite lines in any song.

As a feathered Indian, I approve of this message

This is my favorite Tyler Childers song. As a long time fan of Chris Knight, Tyler gives me hope for the future of our chosen music.

Discovered this song today 😭 06.14.2024 ♥️ this is a masterpiece

Best opening verse in the history of country music

As a native im listening to this song like👀 but I ended up loving it... also who's watching in 2024

Great song. Here are some lyrics for those that like to sing along. Well my buckle makes impressions On the inside of her thigh There are little feathered Indians Where we tussled through the night If I'd known she was religious Then I wouldn't have came stoned To the house of such an angel Too fucked up to get back home Lookin' over West Virginia Smoking Spirits on the roof She asked ain't anybody told ya That them things are bad for you I said many folks have warned me There's been several people try But up till now, there ain't been nothing That I couldn't leave behind Hold me close my dear Sing your whispering song Softly in my ear And I will sing along Honey tell me how your love runs true And how I can always count on you To be there when the bullets fly I'd run across a river just to hold you tonight Well my heart is sweating bullets From the circles it has raced Like a little feathered indian Callin' out the clouds for rain I'd go runnin' through the thicket I'd go careless through the thorns Just to hold her for a minute Though it'd leave me wanting more Hold me close my dear Sing your whispering song Softly in my ear And I will sing along Honey tell me how your love runs true And how I can always count on you To be there when the bullets fly I'd run across a river just to hold you tonight

Is it just me, or when you hear this mans voice it brings tears to your eyes every friggin time???!!!

“I’d go running through the THICKET”

Playing this for my grandson Aden as he is in UC Hospital in Cincinnati fighting for his life after having a horrific motorcycle accident. He knows every word to this song and would always sing along.

I have been listening to this song on an average of 15 times a day for the past week, or so. No idea why it still feels like my first listen.

Everything about this song is PERFECTION! Tyler’s fabulous voice, best songwriting ever, terrific steel guitarist, awesome bass player, great drummer! It’s simply the ENTIRE package! THICKET gets me every time!!! 🥰

I'm not a huge country music fan, but, this is going to be my wife and I's first dance song when we get married this Halloween. Shit is powerful.

no flashy jewelry, no naked girls, no wild music video, just a man his band and great lyrics, why country is the last bit of music that is true

It takes a Tyler Childers to make you believe in country music again.

This Verse really hit me personally. "Lookin' over West Virginia Smoking Spirits on the roof She asked ain't anybody told ya That them things are bad for you I said many folks have warned me There's been several people try But up till now, there ain't been nothing That I couldn't leave behind"

Man, that bass player harmonizes w/ Tyler great! And, that steel guitar...holy hell! Love this whole session.

I’m a Iron worker/welder fabricator and I just recently broke my back and this is now only my favorite Tyler Childers song, it’s now the one I can most relate to, I’ll tell y’all something if it weren’t for our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, my wife and this song I couldn’t tell where I’d be in this much needed recovery. Praise the Lord for Tyler Childers! He’s hands down my favorite “six string plucker” singer/songwriter out there.

"Looking over West Virginia smoking spirits on the roof." This has been my favorite TC song for several years.

2:29 one man one word one thousand rewinds, worth it everytime

KY boy is killing this tune. He's such a rare talent!

To tyler, in 2018 i dropped my daughters ukulele at hardley strictly in sanfransisco and well, i heard you playing, i thought you were going o take it but i said "thats my daughters ukulele i just dropped it" you gave it back, signed it, and my daughter still plays it, she looks at you signature every time she plays, thank you tyler

Good to see modern musicians using the steel guitar. Not something you see much anymore

Just goes to show, you don’t have to water down your lyrics and sell your soul in order to garner attention. Artists like this are a breath of much needed fresh air compared to the mainstream “country” they play on the radio

Nobody: Tyler Childers: THICKET!

Today, I woke up and the snow was falling. I made my way downstairs and put on this song and just listened. As I went through the motions of the morning--washing dirty dishes, grinding coffee beans, and getting my desk ready for a stressful day--I realized that I was free, albeit just for a moment. It feels a full day later and I'm worn out and ready to hit the sack, but I can't help myself and look back and be grateful for that morning moment. Thank you, sir for the music!

True artist!!! Tyler Childers saved us from Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton and all the other shitty pop country garbage.

Genuine dude, stays after his shows to help clean up with the grounds crew. Salt of the earth.

Just discovered this guy - praise be to the mighty algorithm This is the good shit

Heard this song at random and loved it immediately. Now checking out all his songs and telling friends. Please keep it up Mr. Childers :)

This is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard.

If I’d knows she was religious then I wouldn’t have came stoned.. to the house of such an angel , too fucked up to get back home. Lol. Good line

When I visited USA I loved how they had this type in music and they played so effortlessly. I’m rediscovering this type of blissful music with deep poetic words because of Yellowstone ( Thankyou you Sheridan).

Discovering artists like Tyler Childers has given me hope that real Country music is still out there. I've stopped listening to mainstream shit. Love this song.

Tyler has a Johnny Cash intensity in his eyes in this video. This guy is simply amazing.

I love this. Radio country sucks.

My son who is 30 turned me on to Tyler’s music, thank you Evan. I will definitely be buying the albums from Tyler’s collection 😎👍

Only heard Zach Bryan awhile back and heard him sing this song, so I searched feathered Indians and this came up and wow now I'm a Tyler fan now :)

WOW--the delivery is so genuine, the lyrics so simple, the voice so pure--it's straight from a poet's soul!

Can y’all imagine if the radio played only musicians as talented as tyler Childers? My god what a difference it would be. Rock on brother🤙🏻

The wide shot is ALMOST framed perfectly for the drummer to have antlers...damn...

R.I.P. Dusty I know your singing the hell out of this song up there listening to this group will never sound the same.

Thicket!

"Well my buckle makes impressions on the inside of her thigh" is the best opening line of all time. So vivid, so raw, but still sensual. That's song writing on Jason Isbell level right there

22 and just getting into Tyler Childers, i feel privileged to listen to this his voice is immaculate. Coal is is good too

There was a a girl when I was younger as a man, she was be beautiful Her name was Jeanie and there wasn't anything I wouldn't do for her, but her mamma didn't care for me. She influenced her to another guy with a lot more prospects, an electrician I Believe. From College I guess I saw them walking one time together and It broke my heart. I want to think we saw Pulp Fiction the first time together, but we didn't you saw it with him.

this takes me to a place i’ve never even been

Finally, a modern male country singer other than Chris Stapleton who's smug face I don't want to punch for making the genre look awful in the past ten years. Good work Mr. Childers. Good work.

This song is fabulous. Full stop. Hoping one day to see Tyler Childers over here in the UK.

Brazilian bron with a north American heart. Country music is life and Tyler is amazing in every line !

Everything he writes, and plays absolutely blows me away.

This is country! Don’t change don’t let them Nashville sounds influence you.! Keep doing what you’re doing 🙌🏻🙏🏻

If you ever see this you know who you are and this song reminds me of you and me at 17 on your dads farm riding four wheelers and sneaking off to the woods or drinking whiskey by a fire or eating grandma’s cooking on Sundays. I know 2020 has sucked and we have went down different paths but I sure hope you stay that same girl in my dreams forever

i love the fact that tyler is turning people into country fans, cause he’s just that good.

I am so knocked out by the power and intent in which Tyler "delivers" a tune. The attention to the phrasing, the emphasis, the mountain sound! Brings to mind some of the old greats like Jimmie Rodgers, Hank Williams, and Bill Monroe.

"If I'd known she was religious" Brilliant.

Fell in love with Tyler recently, he pierced my soul in a time of weakness. When I listen to Tyler my bones shake. I probably listen to 30 songs of Tyler a day at this point. I wish I was there when he was coming up but I’ll be a lifelong fan, cheers bud

This song gives me the chills, makes my heart swell, and puts a tear in my eye.

My boyfriend sang this song to me when we were just hugging each other. I recorded that moment and still gives me butterflies everytime I recall/rewatch the moment 😊 He is such a big country boy and I am a big city girl who just moved here in a small city in Nebraska. I never knew I will have my first relationship here and honestly I am so grateful to have him as my first. This song really reminds me of our early relationship ❤️ I wish and hope to God we will end up together and get married in the future, as I wanted this song to be played in our wedding or the after-wedding party 😆

My neighbors liked this song so much they threw a brick through my window to listen to it louder 😵

Chris Stapleton and this guy would kill it

I recently discovered Tyler and his cool ass band. Absolutely love this guy. He sings his fuckin heart out!! Go head son.
