    I also said I thought the song was whiny and yelly, but said I like folk music in general. Jolly claimed I was born wealthy, which isn't true. I guess my dad could’ve recorded a song in the woods, in front of a deer stand, what a coincidence, complaining about taxes and fatties on welfare. Heck, the content isn’t untrue… but I guess he found a way to make money. The American dream!

      Wait, did @89th really just try to claim he’s a southerner because he lived in Fairfax, VA?

      Half the buildings and most of the streets in Fairfax are named for southern heroes.

      General Lee marched his troops through Leesburg before crossing the Potomac to invade the north. Those guys certainly claimed to be southerners.

        There are regions of Boston that are more southerner than Northern VA from 1980-2020…

            Well hey come on that's not true. Look at this recent photograph of a Fairfax Virginia farmers and ranchers association meeting:

                          I guess conservatives first liked him, now he is getting bad feedback from them because he said this on a Fox News interview:

                          “We are the melting pot of the world and that’s what makes us strong, is our diversity. We need to harness that and appreciate it and not use it as a political tool to keep everyone separate from each other.”

                          He just can't win. LOL

                                      Modern music is all milquetoast hooks in 2 minutes or under, within a very narrow band of beats per minute, and vocal affectations employed to hide a shameless amount of autotune. Oh and don't forget the TikTok theatrics.

                                      This guy's doing none of that shit. I'll take his imperfect voice, simplistic guitar playing and okay lyrics because it isn't contrived. Good for him. I hope he dominates the YouTube discover for months because something like this should.

                                      Please love yourself.

                                          I wasn't expecting to hear "zen koan" in those lyrics. Nice song.

                                          Education is extremely important.
