Songs like this are why I still listen to country music sometimes. The harmonies alone and the way they bend the words around the notes. It's gorgeous. ETA: You have to do a reaction to their collaboration with Sugarland on "Life in a Northern Town." Harmony overdose and it is worth it.

When the town next to you has a population of 6 you may be in the boondocks. Loved it.

Sheesh. From rural country ass Texas and my small town was 800 people

I grew up in the boondocks 😊 please listen to their songs Pontoon and Whiskey, Beer, Wine. Those are such fun songs. Also Better man and Tornado are great and more serious songs. ☮️

Home free did an awesome mash up up “boondocks and “fishin in the dark”

🤠🤠🤠🤠🔥🔥🔥🎼🔥🔥🔥🤠🤠🤠🤠 .. oh hell yeahhhhhh ....yes yes yes Miss Britt !! This is pure talent .. pure Country Music magic .. thanks for cheering up my morning!! Luvvvvv 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This is a great anthem of rural America. I've been all over the world, and have lived in many places across the country, both urban and rural. But first and foremost I'm from the boondocks myself. I noted that you're from NY. I'm from the western end of NY State where you have to travel an hour and a half just to go to an Olive Garden. It's real country out here. I love your reactions and your eclectic openness and appreciation for so many musical genres. By the way, a great follow up to this is "Old Black Water" by the Doobie Brothers.

The blonde, Kimberly, Schlapman, is from the small town where I live in Northeast Georgia. Many people know her and her family and are HUGE fans. One Sunday, about 13 years ago, not long after this song came out, our church opened up the microphone to anybody who wanted to come up and sing their favorite song. Many people participated and sang their favorite hymns. At one point a young boy, probably about nine years old, got up to sing his favorite song. It was beyond precious when he opened his mouth and started singing Boondocks. ❤️🎵🎶😂 Also, Kimberly has a line of kitchen products called Oh Gussie. I’m not sure where all she sells them, but you can definitely pick them up at Cracker Barrel.

I agree with the comment below, Sugarland/Jake Owen/Little Big Town covering Dream Academy's Life in a Northern Town is worth checking out. So many voices.

ha! That sounds awesome

Some of the harmonies that Little Big Town puts together are just fantastic. We need more 4 person groups!

This is one of the first songs i remember really converting me to being a country music fan. Grew up with my pops listening to nothing but country. Took a while to grow on me but this... This was so good. Still is. Absolute fire

They have a lot of good songs. Their harmonies are SO good!!

Strong recommend for "Bring it on Home." One of the few Little Big Town songs where Phil Sweet (the Blond guy) sings the lead.

When my kids were small we'd drive down the road singing the last part of this song together, we had such a fun time🤣

This song was their first big hit. My wife got to know them when they first started, and still to this day they recognize her and will come up to ask how she is doing. Such wonderful people and very humble.

Love this song and it's message and the music, truly what a pleasure and delight, yes iam proud of where iam from, it truly made me who I am and I love myself and how I turned out, I can see the good and bad and ugly of where I am from and say iam proud of where I am from 🙏🙏🙏 yeah I remember captain planet, it was a cartoon, wasn't on long but it dealt with a lot of environmental problems and was basically saying if we all work together, we could clean, restore, and protect our planet like it is our home and the other home we have, that is floating in the void of space 🙏🙏🙏

I love Little Big Town, they sound so great together.

Great band and song! Their harmonies!!

Used to listen to that one on my way to work ... Leaving my peaceful rural home to get to my job in the city, and hating every second of that drive lol

Home Free does a great cover of this song in a mash up with the song Fishin' in the Dark

Their song "For the Daughters" is substantial, "better man" was written by Taylor Swift, Day Drinking,

You’re so cool. Fun to watch your excitement. This song rocks!! 🕺🏽 good times. Have you heard Day Drinking. Another fun song

Grew up exactly like this. Our grade school was in the middle of nowhere and the mascot was Polecats, The Jasper Polecats. If that's not boondock-y, nothing is. LOL The video is very much how it was in high school. We would have to wet down the dirt so it wouldn't kick up so much dust.

I absolutely love Home Free cover of boondocks! I was raised in the boondocks of the north west US, but love living in the city so this song is really fun.

I seen them when they wer first starting out they opened for someone I forget but they were awesome!!

I love your new hairdo!. LBT is great group! They have a great catalog. Great reaction Britt

If you like this, you’ll also like Home Free’s mash up “Fishin’ in the dark / Down in the Boondocks”

Kimberly is also my fav aesthetically, plus from interviews she is just the sweetest person on the planet. If you want a song that she sings lead on I’d recommend “sober” ❤

This! And I’d also recommend “save your sin” as a Kimberly led song, it’s got a bit more bite sonically but they’re both awesome songs

❤ them!

All these people can sing and sound so good together They from Ga

Your side of the bed, is one of my favorite songs by them

Little Big Town's "Tornado" is good too 👍

I knew you would love this! This was one of their first hits. ♥️

I love this song. I saw them way before they were a "thing." They sang Boondocks then and I and the crowd went wild. The end when its all about the fishing whole I lose my mind. Me and my teenage daughter would try to song the end and crack ourselves up because to women don't make 4 part harmony. Every time they sing it is a joy and this song just celebrates their beginnings. So glad you decided to review. Also, as usual, you make it fun and you are so insightful!!

not sure where to request someone, here you go...KT Oslin, amazing lady that has passed on....songs, 80's Ladies, Hold Me, Do Ya, just a few of her not to be missed songs....songwriter, musician, talent...

i used to love this song like 15 years ago

Ooooh can’t wait to see you react to this!!! ❤❤❤

I'm so happy you reacted to this song. I knew you would love it.

I LOVE Little Big Town. Got to see them live in Australia & by far one of my fav concerts their harmonies are beyond 🔥 Check out "Sober" or "Beat Up Bible" Kimberly (the blonde) sings lead on those songs and they're 2 of my fav LBT song's.. ❤

I second the "Sober" recommendation. Kimberly has a great voice and that's a great song.

One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands, I live in the deep South, in the Boondocks ❤

My favorite song ever, I remember being a kid no older then 6 and me and my family would always blast this song while fishing

You do realize they originally did this song 18 years ago!!

They are awesome, Boondocks will always lift my mood - so catchy.

Some of the best harmonies EVER! Any genre

You may like Lady Antabellum " Need you now"

They just make me feel good. Their song Pontoon is my favorite summertime song.

Jimi Westbrook is from Sumiton, AL!

That little bit at the end is called rounding.

You have such personality ...brains ...looks ...a voice .....your husband is one lucky guy

Love this band

Prepare to dive down an excellent rabbit hole with Little Big Town. They have a great catalog of music. For more recent hits check out Rich Man or Day Drinking. From their earlier years check out the combination of their song “Lost” with Coldplay’s “Fix You”. Definite tear jerker.

Pontoon and Little White Church are great songs by Little Big Town

Saw them in concert great show they had the blond lady sing a song but the pipes she has amazing

Britt you need to watch Angels in Heaven - Chris Rodrigues & the Spoon Lady

They have awesome voices! A few other greats if you do want to check out are Lady Antebellum, The Band Perry, and then here's a band that is not as popular, Gloriana. They don't have as many hits so if you do go down this road, I recommend 'wild at heart ' and 'how far do you wanna go'. Happy listening:)

The blonde's name is Kimberly and if you want to hear her on lead vocals, check out the song Good People

Welcome aboard to the Little Big Town Ride I think you woukd like " Rich Man" by them truly a beautiful song

since you fan crush on this stuff too.... the hair, the makeup, the nails, and that shirt that electrified the color of the reaction..home run!!! ps: one of my fav little big town songs

Each member also sings lead on certain songs, they won Grammys for Pontoon, Better Man, And Girl Crush.

Love love this song I grew up in a town of about two hundred people in British Columbia Canada we had to take a bus in high school to another town all of our teachers teased us that we lived in the boondocks we did have a muddy river and the trains were constant it’s what I went to sleep with the clack clack of the trains we all had tin roof’s because we got a ton of snow in the winter I fell no shame and yes my heart and soul is in the boondocks

You would love the official video.

They have a song called "you can't have everything" and their harmonies are amazing and also the lyrics (and the blond lady has a solo)

They were so young when this came out. Where does the time go (as I brush back my silver bangs)?

great band in every way with arguably the best style in country music.

for a different take on the boondocks you might want to try 'down in the boondocks' by billy joe royal

Britt. I was born and raised in the "Boondocks" of New York. Ever heard of The Adirondack Mountains? Lake George?

Sitting here in the actual boondocks listening to this. 150-acre crawfish and rice farm down miles of gravel road a half hour from civilization. Born and raised.

Pontoon!!!!!!

Little Big Town, Tornado is my favorite by them.

A little off topic but I think you should listen to "Old Brown Shoe" by The Beatles. My favorite lyrics from it are, "I want a love that's right, but right is only half of what's wrong. I want a short haired girl who sometimes wears it twice as long....."

To get a good feel of Kimberly (the blonde) listen to Sober. The Vevo video is a live version

Love this song! :)

Saw them at a smaller amphitheater here and they were awesome. Such tight harmonies!

The Blonde curly haired singer in little big town sings a song called sober

Bring it on home was our wedding song ❤️

Girl I'm a middle aged white girl that lives on a 150 acre farm.. I love the Boondocks... lol and our 1/4 mile driveway.. that is gravel is off a dang dirt road.. And I hate it... want to get rid of that dirt road so that my car is just a dust bucket all the time.

Pontoon is a great summer song Britt you should do it next Great reaction LOVE LBT

the four of them are the face of the band, the two men both play guitar

Listen to their song Sober. Kimberly sings lead in it.

Pontoon is another good one by this group, and little white church!! Check 'em out!! ;)

Congrats on 125k 💙

Great reaction!! Your hair looks great today!

We saw them at Freedom Fest at Ft. Polk, La a few years ago. Was a good show

If you listen to their song “Sober”, you’ll hear the blonde’s voice.

Great reaction, I am so happy you found them.

First of all. I finally subscribed to you!!! Second....I think I know of a video you might like. It's a compilation of Sugarland, Jake Owen and Little Big Town covering 'Life in a Northern Town". It's a cover of the song from the 80's by Dream Academy. Keep up the good work on your content

I live in a small town in northwest Missouri and we just call it the Boonies..but we in it already..lmao!

This was a pretty hot song when it was released.

Love them! Check out Wine, Beer, Whiskey

Love the hairstyle

Point of order: Trees mean you’re “in the sticks”. The boondocks are the backwoods. Seeing trees isn’t enough, the road needs to be a two track with grass growing up in the middle.

On the pontoon is a great song

Knew you were going to love this.
