Jason is one of the best songwriters alive. All of his albums are incredible, as well as those with the Drive By Truckers. I could recommend any song. Just pick one out of a hat.

He don’t have a bad song!
This is a song he wrote for his wife for sticking with him through thick and thin and helping him get sober.
MORE ISBELL PLEASE!! If we were vampires, elephant, decoration day, dress blues...you guys do a great job by the way!

"And the old lovers sing, I thought it'd be me that helped him get home, but home was a dream, one I'd never seen till you came along". That line is pure perfection in songwriting
John Mayer made the comment (and its often quoted regarding Jason Isbell's song writing prowess) - "Jason Isbell is the best lyric writer of my generation. He lives at a level where even great writers can only visit." He's 100% correct! Simply amazing musician and writer. And the slide guitar on this song is no joke. When Jason is home in Nashville and available he lends his slide guitar talents in the recording studio to friends and producers on a regular basis. He's a very well respected guitarist.

Sadler Vaden does the slide on this. Both he and Jason are incredible and under-rated guitar players. The whole damn band is under-rated. They are one of, if not the best live acts around.

Sadler isn’t with the band quite yet when this was recorded. That’s Jason doing a lion share of all the guitar work on this album. The only two members of the 400 unit on this album are Chad (drums) and Derry (keys). Even his best bud Jimbo is missing from this one.
This song and the way he sings it is like that part in the middle of a movie where the character is contemplating life choices…… I don’t care what style of music it is when the singer puts that much emotion into it. Pure gold.
This man deserves a drop down the "rabbit hole." Some of the best song writing in a decade when released.
Her wrote this song for his wife Amanda Shires, who is a great artist in her own right.
Nearly every single song on that album is a classic with lyrics that have depth and meaning. Elephant, live oak, Yvette, etc. Elephant will knock you to your knees just incredible.
Check out his song If We Were Vampires. It’s absolutely beautiful. His wife is in his band and she plays the violin. Also check out White Man’s World and Elephant. He’s an incredible songwriter. Great reaction.

I had a patient with cancer who introduced Jason Isbell to me, and the first song I heard was Elephant. She would play that song on repeat.
Jason is my favorite artist. This song is about him overcoming addiction and coming back to his partner with full commitment and longing from being away (in recovery). My wedding song was actually If We Were Vampires 10/10 recommend checking that out.
You guys have to do it we were vampires by Isbell. It won a Grammy. It will make you tear up
Just took a couple weeks vacation and followed him and the band around northern Europe. Six shows, all general admission, stand right up front for under 40 bucks. The most beautiful venues. Crowd knew every word to every song. Always applauded each time he hit the line about swearing off alcohol forever this time. Drummer came in with some haunting beats as the crescendo grew each night. So special and absolutely unforgettable.

It is! Also, Children of children - the live version - is terrific, when Jason switches from acoustic to electric slide halfway through the song. The live Front Row Boston version has great audio...
Percy Priest is a lake in Nashville. He said he ain't leaving until the dam breaks and carries the house away like a piece of driftwood...that's how much he loves her.
Love when music draws you in and takes you somewhere. Vocals, lyrics and guitar came together to create a masterpiece
Asia and BJ!!! Thank you SO MUCH more covering Jason!!!! The world needs to KNOW about Jason. I can see in both your eyes, that he's reaching you, and he has dozens and dozens of songs this good. PLEASE, keep them coming, and thank you so much again. "Subscribed" as of now!
I love watching folks get moved by Mr Isbell. He’s a sorcial talent. Hope you continue to listen to him - your soul will be rewarded. I’m pretty sure the guitar is a slide guitar ❤
My favorite song by Jason Isbell. Southeastern is a really great album!
Jason Isbell is an amazing songwriter as well as a terrific guitarist and singer. He has a TON of great songs for you to discover and I hope I get to see it when you do. Give a listen to Songs She Sang In the Shower, If We Were Vampires or Elephant just for starters.
Jason is a great lyricist. He paints a perfect picture in words.
Y’all gotta watch the live version on Austin City Limits. Have you really never listened to him before? Because you’re so lucky, I wish I could hear him again for the first time.
I’ve seen him 14 times in concert. He puts on a hell of a show. You should check out the latest album by his wife Amanda Shires. Maybe the song “Hawk for the Dove.”

The whole album is fantastic. Heavily recommend giving it a listen, even if just on your own free time
This is a great love song about his love for his wife, Amanda Shires, and his commitment to go sober for her and with her help. The most emotional song on the album, Elephant, is not so happy, and is about caring for someone as they die.
White Mans World Live Oak Elephant Outfit Goddamn Lonely Love Dress Blues Streetlights... He has a huge catalogue to go through. Not a bad song anywhere. I drank a beer with him when he was still in Drive-By Truckers on 2005. Genuinely nice guy.

I feel like "Goddamn Lonely Love" get overlooked a lot.
Thank you for this. Best songwriter alive. This particular song is one of the best love songs ever written. Please dive down the rabbit hole. They're all incredible.
If you haven't reacted to "If We Were Vampires" by Jason, please do. But he has so many good songs. From these countryish style to more rock sounding.
Glad you did some Jason🤘🤘
"And the old lover say 'I thought it'd be me who'd help him get home.' But home was a dream, One I never seen, Until you came along." Ugh, that verse is SOOO good.
I love that you guys are reacting to Jason’s music! He is a master wordsmith and I, for one, say that he is “the greatest songwriter of our generation”
I adore Jason Isbell I always wanted to play guitar, but he made me want write music. His lyrics are so honest and vulnerable! Jason Isbell is a lyrical genius!
That true smile from Asia, just makes my heart smile. Love you girl.
The guitar sound you’re referring to is called slide guitar. The guitarist placed a slide (usually metal or glass) on their fretting hand and uses it to slide across the notes.
Beantoes thank you ❤️. It's beautiful. I have never heard this before and it's definitely going on my playlist. Amazing song.
What I love about you Asia and BJ is how much you so much appreciate great music. Love you guys so much such a blessing.
When the music alone just takes me there!!!❤️ And then the voice! and lyrics! WOW!!! Sooo beautiful... shoutout to Beantoes12 💯❤️❤️
Asia you really liked this song and it makes me smile. Jason is amazing. Listen to the Austin City Limits live version.
"Wow!" Couldn't agree more.
So glad that you guys appreciated this song. I think everything that Jason has written is incredible.
You should see this live. His wife is in that video. She is wonderful in her own right. Amanda Shires. Go down the rabbit hole. He is a beast.
He's one of the BEST modern country artists. Thank god you listened to his original song!
I absolutely love you covered this song. It's so powerful.
Just do the whole Southeastern album. Or all of his albums. He's the best thing going right now.
Cast Iron Skillet... Given how upbeat and "simple" the melody is, It's easy to miss how much emotional depth there is in every line. He references southern/rural sensibility that carries layers of subtext. It - like so much of Isbell's work - is pure genius. I've listened to it hundreds of time, and I get choked up every time.
OMG YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS FINALLY PLEASE OTHER REACTORS, FOLLOW THIS ARTIST AND REACT TO HIM LIKE THESE TWO. THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Him and his wife wrote this together after an argument😭 the vampires song everyone is referencing is both of them singing together, the live version will wreck you
Jason Isbell does one of the best covers of Born in The USA I have ever heard. If you liked this one you'll probably like that.
Great reaction! Wait till you see this one live. Even better!
I love this song and his version of it, written for his wife. Home Free does a great cover of this. Definitely will put you in your feelings.
So glad yall got to Jason!
Love Jason 💕 He has so many good songs to choose from and his live performances are amazing. If We Were Vampires, Dress Blues, Songs That She Sang In The Shower, Alabama Pines, Live Oak………the list goes on!
its a true story for him and his wife (the fiddle player). she saved him from the bottle. thats why the feeling is so strong. his life story
He, like Tyler Childers, got sober in recent years and can hear references to it in his music and can hear it through the albums
Art at it's finest.
He wrote this song to his wife that’s why it has heart and meaning and he can make you feel it. Definitely a sexy song 😊
Best songwriter around these days. Have seen JI & the 400 Unit 3 times in Oslo. Amid the best live sets I've ever attended. The band have played together for a long time - which one easy can tell...
I believe it's a slide on a gibson guitar, layered over an acoustic but I could be wrong, but... The whole Southeastern album is damn near perfect. Flying Over Water, Speed Trap Town are my particular favs.
Love Jason, just one of they best around at the moment.
He's a special artist. Nothing much more to say.

So glad y'all reacted to this original version, since he wrote it for his wife and performs it with her. I think there's a cover by Morgan Wallen that some people listen to, and sometimes react to, but I think the original is best.
Dress Blues is a must listen.
When you have time On your own time. Watch him sing this live at Austin City Limits. His wife is playing with him she plays the violin 🎻 ❤
What you guys are talking about is a slide guitar. It is basically just an electric guitar played with a slide (cylinder) over one finger/ The sound is a lot like a steel guitar, since you get the entire range of sound, with the slide acting like a fret.
Yeah, you’re listening to one of three of the best songwriters in the world. Some have written songs for decades and will will never sniff this guys level, he’s a bit eccentric but truly is in a masterclass.
More Isbell! Here's some of his must-hear songs -Last of my kind 💯 -If we were vampires 💯 -If it takes a lifetime -If you insist -Something more than free -White beretta
"Cover me up cause I know you're enough to use me for good." I always told my wife that I think of her when I hear that because I don't know if anyone else can find the good to use. I love this record and Jason.
Jason Isbell is fantastic. Please, more of him!
Beautiful song and a great voice.
If you want lyrics to make you cry "Elephant"
Check out his song 24 Frames. Excellent.
The folks here saying that Morgan Wallen's cover is better are absolutely insane.

FACTs
You have to listen to If we were Vampires next
Other songs from Jason that I love are Alabama Pines, If It Takes a Lifetime, Something to Love, Letting You Go, and for higher energy - Hope The High Road.
Oh, I have always said “Jason has an amazing ability to find the pain in your soul that you didn’t even know, existed, and make you feel every bit of it. “ Whatever you do, don’t listen to “If We Were Vampires”, “Cover Me Up”, “Dress Blues”, and “Elephant” all in a row… You will be at stopping pile on the floor by the time he had the last quote, somehow” in Elephant PS… discard people from your life who like the Morgan Wallen version of this song better, lol
Maybe the best songwriter of this generation.
His song “if we were vampires”.. one of the best songs of love written
one of the best songs ever written
As many others have said, if we were vampires. The best love song ever written
I think the guitar part you were trying to figure out was slide guitar. It's just a regular guitar that someone plays with a glass cylinder on their finger, kinda like the guitar player in Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Brings me to tears. Jesus
Isbell!! Hell yes! You obviously need to do “Elephant”!
Monster songwriter, guitarist (ridiculously good - especially slide!) and performer. IMHO there's not many performers of this generation that can touch him or Chris Stapleton. His live shows are killer. Other standout tracks to check out include Live Oak, Speed Trap Town, 24 Frames, Children of Children, Cumberland Gap, Chaos & Clothes, White Man's World, If We Were Vampires.
Excellent reaction!! May not get the hits y’all want, but thanks for doing it!! Love y’all!❤️🤘🏻

It was slide guitar, not pedal steel. Usually a glass tube run o er the strings of an electric guitar.
If you listen to your local N.P.R. (NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO STATION) you will find more music like this
❤ Thank you 😊
its an electric guitar played with a glass slide on one finger
The best song writer of our time
Glad to see that the whole "You need to check out Morgan Wallen's version" BS seems to be dying out. Jason wrote and performed perfection with such minimalism that there isn't even compression on those vocals. The other version turns it into generic Nashville.
As a man that’s lived the lowest lows and the highest highs and had a woman keep her faith in me through both this song tears me up every time lol
Your eyes will water on Elephant.
