"He was raised properly". "He took care of his responsibilities as a man". You said a mouthful LFR.

Being the daddy of 2 perfect little girls, I can not fathom how any father would not give up their responsibility without a fight

One of the first things that I noticed about this song is in the first verse he says "So much for ditching this town and hanging out on the coast...." and in the last verse is says "She hugged them both and headed off to the west coast". She's picking up where he left off.

Yup there goes the life he dreamed of she is living it out.

I was 19 and pregnant when this song came out… now our daughter is 17 and we celebrate 19 years together this Saturday ♥️

In liking this song I know you will love another of his. “Don’t blink” is a song about how quickly life goes by

yes totally agreed here

I've heard this song so many times it just grabs you. Now that my son is grown now and just graduated basic training for the Army. He will be training to be an Army Ranger and has started his own journey in life. I've had custody of my son since he was 4. It's hard on old dad to to let go but he's focused on the next chapter in his life. This dad couldn't be more proud

@@franquil85conn I appreciate the kind words and encouragement for my son. He was an All Star every year in Little League and continued to do so in the Babe Ruth League as well. Every coach wanted him on their team cause he was the only switch hitter in the league and the top left handed pitcher. Those are the days I miss the most. He never gave up on he was to accomplish and strive to do better each time. I ran across my baseball glove that I had gotten when he was younger. It made me tear up cause it looks old and weathered now. Can't get that time back. Better enjoy your little ones while you can. I'm getting us both new gloves for Christmas

I played this song for my stepdad at my wedding and I've been listening to this song since it came out and it still makes me cry to hear it.

I'm not crying...you're crying Good luck to your beautiful baby girl in her new life 💖 💕

Kenny has hit after hit! Can’t remember them all!

Man country music has the best damn stories!!!! Great song!!!! U should definitely check out “The good stuff” by Kenny, u will really enjoy that one as well

“Even though I’m leaving” Luke combs!! You’ll love it❤️❤️

I forgot all about this song, I heard it before like once. It makes me a little teary eyed. beautiful. and congratulations to your daughter, and her lucky gentleman. You seem to be handling it well. My father and my stepfather both cried the entire day of my wedding. lol

I'm a reactor myself. Big fan of yours, bro. Not afraid to show emotion and very knowledgeable about the music. Keep doing what you're doing. Love it.

Van! My man, what a powerful song but even more powerful testament. I’m a long time “stalker” but the humanity you showed by relating this song to your own life convinced me to sub finally. Keep doing it man, you’re amazing my brother.

“ You Had Me From Hello” “Better As a Memory” “Boys of Fall” “She’s Got It All” “For The First Time” “Somewhere With You” “Anything But Mine” those are all really good Kenny Chesney songs to listen to

The MORE you listen to Country Music, the More you will like it. I love it after decades of hearing and listening to it. My car radio stays on my favorite COUNTRY Music station when my Daughter is not riding with me. When she is with me I will SUFFER listening to that Rap and Hip Hop stuff!

It surely is a beautiful song but that’s how most country music works it tells a story in one way or another. I loved hearing your story at the end. I’m a father of six and our youngest moved out on his 18 birthday to start his life and it was also bittersweet he’s now 22 and he’s doing well but I sure do miss the old times but always wish the best and help where I can for every single one of them little shitheads lol that song put me in my feelings this morning

There is nothing more important to me than the two little boys who changed my life. Never knew I should have dreamt of this life when I was young and dumb. Dad life for life.

You get singers then you get story tellers. Luckily for us our generation has Kenny.

Heartland - I loved her first. I think it’ll hit home for you.

LOVE! XOXO More KC to check out - Don't Blink & The Good Stuff.

The song hasn't even started and I know you re going to like it because you're such a GREAT dad! We can all see how much you love your kids!

Kenny Chesney is one of my my fav country artist. Just fantastic!

I love that song. I have a 14 year old daughter. I tear up every time I hear this song. She is my life.

Beautiful song. He couldn’t live or they couldn’t live their dreams, but work hard for their child to live hers!

Man...you hit my heart strings on this one. Especially your story about your baby girl. My only child...My baby girl just got married last December. Even though she was 24 at that time, had graduated collage and was building her life, i still saw her as MY baby girl. That week leading up to the wedding, OMG i was a complete mess. and also a mess for a couple of weeks after. But walking her down that isle, seeing her smile looking at the young man that was about to be my son in law, and seeing the smile on his face seeing her walking toward him. Thats a memory i will cherish forever. BUT she WILL ALWAYS BE MY BABY GIRL! God Bless you man and thank you for this reaction.

I tell my mistakes I thought I made than they weren’t mistakes. I tell them they are blessed accidents.

Awwww Congratulations Daddy!!! I hope all is well and wish them and you the best!!!!

I'm not even gonna speak on this reaction (it speaks for itself... great job Van!!).... as far as more Kenny Chesney songs??? DUDE!! He has a HUGE catalogue of NOTHING but hits..... some are fun, funny, moving, sad but inspiring, thought provoking etc., etc., etc.... continue with him. He's a HUGE fixture in the Country world for GOOD reason!!! Check out some of these..... for serious/inspiring: "DON"T BLINK", "THE GOOD STUFF", "I GO BACK".... for fun: "SHE THINKS MY TRACTOR'S SEXY", "ALL THE PRETTY GIRLS", "AMERICAN KIDS"..... for sexy: "COME OVER" (known as the best/classiest booty call song EVER!! lol!!) "TIP OF MY TONGUE" also "YOU AND TEQILLA" and for the greatest nostalgic-type song and an ode to the American high school football experience..... "THE BOYS OF FALL"..... the video for that is real footage and tugs at the heart (in a GOOD WAY)!!! That's JUST FOR STARTERS (and JUST off the top of my head!!) for Kenny Chesney songs..... the list at this point is damn near endless!!! Great pick and reaction!!!

My daughters are my heart, and I wouldn't trade them for any dream I gave up. Now, I have three grandchildren and they are my heart too. Family is everything to me and I have a beautiful one. My youngest lives in Dublin Ireland so saying goodbye to her each time she goes home is heart wrenching but, she is happy and that gives me such joy. Thank you for this video reaction, it made me cry but tears of pride.

This is 100% one of those songs that really puts life into perspective for us old heads. Beautifully written

Give a listen to "That's My Job" by Conway Twitty. You'll love the message.

YOUR REACTION IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!!! HUGZZZ MAN!!!

Some of my favorite reaction videos are by dads who can relate to songs like this. There is a real vulnerability and love of the men for whom their children (especially daughters) mean the world to them.

His dream was to head to the west coast.... his baby went to the west coast 🙂 great reaction!

You got my allergies acting up too 🥺. Nice reaction. Blessings for your daughters upcoming wedding. I saw a whole different side of my dad the day I got married ❤️ it was bittersweet for both of us. 🙏🏼☮️🌺

Kenny has some real tear jerkers.... I love his songs.

I wish i could hold my tears back. i have to go blow my freaking nose , between your words and the song i cried that much. BEAUTIFUL

If you did not see Kenny Chesney “Don’t blink”. You need to see that one.

My Brother. You get it. Beautiful take on the song.

Heartland has a song called I loved her 1st that you should listen to with the video.Since your branching out how about starting a country and comedy section in your playlist?

This one makes me tear up every time and I have heard it at least 100 times!

This is a good old country song. Old I mean 90s old. Lol grew up on country....now. I listen to everything. Lately been a lot of Tom MacDonald and Nova Rockafeller and of course Madchild as well as Mesus! Thanks for all you do!!!!!!!!!

That girl lucky her parents even stayed together long enough to see her off! 7 year itch never happened I guess. Great song and love your reaction. And I was there too but HE did not step to the plate!

Kenny has a lot of good songs, That's why I'm here, You had me at Hello, How forever feel, Don't Blink, The good stuff and many more

Midnight in Montgomery and Summertime blues by Alan Jackson are both amazing

I have much respect for you . You a black man that raised your kids. Damn u a mythical Beast. If u ask me the black community needs more black men to stand up & be Dad's. Yes Mom's do a good job but they can't fill the roll of Dad. The black community that has took on the government to be Daddy, why? Free money is never Free.

"Some of the best things in our lives are the mistakes we've made" Thats profound. Thank you for saying it.

Loved this reaction! You're a beautiful soul!! We need more people like you!

I got 5 kids and I've always said they were all accidents. But none of them were mistakes.

Sometimes what we think are mistakes are really gifts!

Love your content more and more everyday my man. Thanks for doin what you do!

Kenny is in my top 5 of country music artists. He's got so many great hits it's hard to choose. Here's a few: "Stand", "You Had Me From Hello", "Me And You", "The Good Stuff", "When I Close My Eyes". Stand would be my favorite.

That’s why I’m here - Kenny Chesney

I think this might be my favorite reaction you've ever done. It is a beautiful song thank you for telling your story at the end of it. God bless you and your family

Congratulations on the upcoming nuptials for your daughter. I pray for their happiness. Listen to more Kenny you will like his songs.

I had the same thing happen to me going into med school. Only her father didn't stick around. She's graduated recently, & is now living & working on her own. It is bittersweet!

God bless you with your family....you seem like a good family man...not enough of you in the black communities...you are rare...make sure your baby girl is in good hands.

This song is very touching. Nice reaction. Great insights. Looking forward to more from CCR and Bob Seger. Still waiting for your first Linda Ronstadt experience. 🌺✌️

Kenny Chesney - everybody wants to go to heaven! I know you'll love it having been a minister.

Just found your channel tonight. I teared up listening to your story about your wife, daughter, and her boyfriend. You and your wife did a wonderful job raising your little girl. I can tell you're so proud of her. You gained another subscriber tonight.

When you gave respect for men raising their kids, you got be brother, I was a very young teen Dad, and I never once thought of leaving because I was raised better than that! Now, I have been married for 25 years, have three girls 27, 20, and 8. I also have an 8 year old grand baby. I would never have this beauty in my life if I ran like a coward! My girls are my heart! I include my beautiful wife when I say my girls! She gets even more beautiful with age! I am a blessed man! Thanks brother for your awesome reaction!

“Don’t Blink” and “The Good Stuff” are a couple of other really sweet Kenny songs!

One of the best songs ever written. Great reaction

This was unexpectedly my situation too. I don't regret my kiddos but I definitely did it the hard way. So this song has always resonated with me. Congrats to your daughter.

Ya know that’s what is so good about Country music Sometimes the songs they sing It’s like they write these songs about your life Because really that’s all country music is Just stories about peoples life that you can relate to

Love this Kenny song. Love your family story and hang in there as you get used to your babygirl getting married and starting a wonderful life!

The good stuff is a great meaningful song. Kenny is meaningful.

When this song came out son 17 yrs old got his girl friend pregnant, I played this song for hom then. My son and his wife now jave ... Drum roll, 6 children! Love them all, of course :)

Thank you for doing this review, sir. An incredible song, delivered perfectly by Mr. Chesney. Love your videos, comments and wisdom. Hope ur good. 👊🏻🎶👊🏻

That was my life. Lasted 55 years, after his death, I will continue with his loving memory.

This is what country music is all about LIFE

She is living his dream.

The Good Stuff is one of my favs by him.

CONGRATULATIONS on your daughter's engagement 💍👏❤ Be strong Sir. Thank you for sharing.

Precious. My heart.

It is always a conundrum. We are proud of our children, want them to thrive, do well and be independent. But at the same time we secretly want to hold them close, hold the world at bay, and never let them go!

My "mistake" is a wonderful man with two wonderful daughters. 39 years later and we are still going strong.

So very true, this song puts me in my feels cause I have 2 daughters and they are my everything

No shoes, no shirt, no problem and When The Sun Goes Down are great one to check out by Kenny. They kind of have an island vibe, great tunes.

You are truly a blessed man to have such love and respect in your life ! 😍😍

Back where I come from........one of his first hits.

Love country! Still keepin God and good life #1

Love this song! Kenny is awesome! So many great songs. Great reaction!

My best friend in high school got pregnant when she was 15. It was crazy. Now, over 20 later, my friend and the baby's father are married with 5 kids. He's actually a preacher now. It's amazing. I'm crying like a baby as type this. Lol

The last verse hits me hard. I have 3 daughters. They are all grown and living their lives. As proud as I am of each of them it hurts and scares me as a father to see them leave my protection.

Thank you for sharing this with me

Another adorable father/daughter song is butterfly kisses, tough little boys, I loved her first.. grab some tissues though

My daughter is a teen mom. I wish my granddaughters daddy wanted to be in her life. He’s really missing out. They took off out of state after we found out. That baby is loved so much by so many. I pray one day he comes around. ❤

I knew you'd be thinking about your girl and the walk down the aisle to come. Such a beautiful story. 😊

I'm really glad that you're still on this country journey, waiting for you to very soon drop all of your preconceived notions about country music 😁 Every 'country' reaction you do I see them coming down a bit more so great job! 'When the sun goes down' and 'No shoes, no shirt, no problem' by Kenny Chesney are pretty cool songs as well! 😇💜

You're a beautiful soul Sir. I have just found you for your reactions and I will be with you for many to come. God bless!

those dreams and everything reformed with her. I feel the same with my baby

Country music at its best! Always a story. As others have said, please listen to "Don't Blink" or "I Go Back". My favorite songs by him and he has many

I think your reaction got me more than the song! Congratulations to your daughter how exciting!!

Heartland doing I Loved Her First!

The best reaction to a song I’ve ever heard..

Try 🎵 Lots of things different 🎵 By Kenny Chesney You will ADORE this one too Keep the good work VAN ✌
