Please don't apologize,, your reaction/feelings are the same as most of us felt hearing this song.

😭it made me happy how much two people in Romania enjoyed our boys of Southern Rock who's roots are half way around the world just 45 minutes from me in Florida. Simple, polite, family, God is the laid back Southern way.

How wonderful!!

This is my favorite song by this group with a great message. Great southern rock band from the 60's-80's. It is very sad what happened to this band in losing so many members in a plane crash in 1977. They had lots of great songs such as "Sweet Home Alabama", "Free Bird", "Call Me The Breeze", "Tuesday's Gone", "That Smell", "The Ballad Of Curtis Loew", "What's Your Name", "Gimme Three Steps", "Saturday Night Special" etc.

For all the grief we throw at Rock and Roll bands for living fast and easy. This song is a great message I wish we could all embrace!! Hopefully sharing this song with your son will help him.

A message for the ages.

Congratulations! You are true hippies and live with your hearts! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Never give up on a wayward child. Keep hope alive and anything can happen. I wish you both well. I feel for you Dominika. You are not alone. Many of us go through this same issues with the ones we love the most. 🙏🙏💔

I've heard this song at least a thousand times, and it still chokes me up. I was lucky to see them perform this.

You two are the loveliest reactors out there...!

Oh that look you gave each other to "find a woman and you'll find love" was adorable

Thank you so much for this reaction! This song is one of my all time favourites and it really had an impact to my life. Many people think I'm crazy because I don't have fear to loose material things.

Skynyrd was so good. Guitarist Gary Rossington just passed in March. RIP Lynyrd Skynyrd. Let there be Free Birds in heaven.

I just saw them in Concert live on October 6th in St. Augustine, Florida. Even though none of the original band members were performing, as all have passed, Gary being the last one, it was still a very amazing and an emotional live show.

I love the two of you as one. No you are not perfect but perfect for each other. I love how he looked at you and you looked back when he said "go find a woman and you'll find love" We all see the love and it is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for the heartfelt emotions to your reactions and you both articulate your thoughts extremely well.

Thankyou Clay for articulating our thoughts to our wonderful hosts 🙂

Thanks for the reaction. Saw Skynyrd in concert last year. They started the concert by yelling " Lynyrd Skynyrd is in the house". Amazing amount of energy coming from the band. They are poetic and every song tells a story. Love them. Much love and respect from Texas.

One of the best songs of my generation in my opinion. Every mother's wish for their children. All we can do is hope they will listen and look inward and find their peace and joy. Bless you both. Peace and love.

Looking at eachother when the meeting a women line was sung, beatifull ... you are as one x

Thank you... Thank you for putting life into perspective. It's amazing what a well written song can do to a person.. great dialogue.. I love you guys and your reactions. Great talk..

In 1977 we were devastated when the band were in a plane crash with only a few survivors. I was in high school in Atlanta,Ga., south near where Lynard Skynyrd originated from. They're from the wetlands of Florida near Jacksonville, though their 1st mainstream hit is "Sweet Home Alabama", which has a lighter feeling than this masterpiece. Love the reaction and good luck for many views.

Love you guys!

That first tear you shed, I broke down crying. I just wanted to give you a big hug. Much love from us in the States. ❤❤

A great reaction to one of the wisest songs ever written. & a song that has helped me put a LOT of things in life in perspective. I have a warm place to live, food in my fridge, clean water, & my family are all doing better than I am. What more could I want? After those base needs for me, everything is a luxury. I hope everyone is having an amazing week & much love to everyone from here in the UK

Yep. Great commentary! You captured the message! Well done!

Greetings from Florida, U S.A. The State that Lynyrd Skynyrd was formed. You two are Awesome. You get it. It's the Simple things in Life that truly matter. Be Happy.

This my mom’s favorite song for the exact same reason you shedded a tear.

You 2 have such sweet souls ❤❤❤. I cry right along with you 😢😢😢. I lost my wife of only 6 years in 1981 due to complications from the birth of our son. She was 25 years old and we both loved Lynyrd Skynyrd. She passed away 3 weeks after he was born. I am so sure she would have played this song for him. I had done it for her. He is 43 years old now and he is an amazing person and son. Play this song for your son and it might touch his ❤. Hope so for you him. Bless you both. And yes in the end love is the only thing that matters. Not riches or fame. I was born in 1953 and when I came of age people were so much kinder caring than they are now. Sad situation 😢😢😢 i wjsh the best for everyone ❤❤❤.

It is an excellent song! As truthful today as yesterday.

This is my favorite band. My brother gave me their live double album for my 12th birthday in 1976, One More From the Road. They have many songs you will really like. God bless.

I am 70 years old and the first time I heard Freebird with my brother in law I was blown away. From then on they have been my favorite band of all time. I had a chance to see them 3 months before the plane crash in Fresno California and I acted a fool and didn't go.i have kicked myself ever since.

Awww the way he looks at you, lucky lucky lady ❤

Something I lived by growing up in the 70's after hearing this song... KISS = Keep It Simple Stupid ... 🤣

That’s Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park at 2:02, just a couple of hours away from me. Pictures are amazing, it’s even more stunning in person.

awesome reaction, thank you

You guy's are such a great couple!!!

Best American Band and an absolute classic song.

"be something you love and understand" That lyric always gets me.

If I had to pick one song for my life anthem it would be this one.

So sorry.❤️❤️❤️

My heart goes out to your son and both of you. Your heart is in the right place, never doubt that. God loves good people.

Music that evokes memories and emotions and makes you smile, happy, sad,? We all have wayward children in our lives and hearts, my wife and i do as well! There are no second chances?

You two make me smile. Thank you for your reactions to the music of my era..... ❤🎉😊

That one got me to subscribe. You folks are so real and likable. I appreciate the sincerity you show. The song is great of course but you touched me with the real reaction

Also my favourite song by the group. Great riff and great lyrics.

One of the top 5 greatest songs ever written, and I do try to live by those words even though it is not always easy. You both should check out Shinedown's cover/tribute to this band with this song the best way I can describe it is Nightwish's tribute to Pink Floyds High Hopes it is that good and I cannot recommend it enough!!Great reaction.

I couldn’t agree more with your recommendation. Both versions (the original and Shinedown’s cover) are absolutely beautifully done. To me the original is focusing on a great message and emotes a down home sensibility. The Shinedown cover really expands on the emotional context of the original’s message.

The lyrics are simple but accompanied by that music it becomes a powerful song that really pulls on your heart and soul. I got to see Skynyrd right before the plane crash and they are still the best live band I’ve ever seen. Loved your reaction and how the song touched y’all.

...and, again: don't ever feel embarrassed for tearing up or crying over a beautiful experience....that's what it was made for: to touch your heart and soul!! 💛💛💛 So meaningful and not a very important quality in our times, now. I'm glad that I am old enough to remember when just being the best human you could be was important, above all, and character meant so much. Now: it's how much you own, or have, and character has fallen by the wayside.

Baby Boomers were generally told this advise from mother,grandmother ,or even father.The generations have changed so much that they don't realize all you need is yourself and the ones you love.Material things aren't so important.Great reaction and opinions!

Great timeles epic song 🤘😊👍

Southern Rock at it's finest 🤘 warm weather and a cold beverage 👍🇺🇸

LS WROTE , PLAYED MUSIC THE WAY IT SHOULD BE AND FOR THE PEOPLE THAT WORKED HARD AND HAD NO CHOICE AND DIDN'T MIND DOING IT!! I SAW THEM IN 1976 WHEN THEY THERE SOOOOOOO GOOD!!! AND IT WAS BEST SHOW EVER!!!

If you didn’t love your children, they couldn’t cause you such anguish. Your pain is a testament to your love.

Nice comments and I feel with you.

Awe! The way you two looked at each other and smiled when Ronnie was singing " find a woman and you'll find love"....y'all are the sweetest, cutest couple on the internet! Your reactions are so genuine and pure. It's a joy to come here and spend a little time with you when I have some to spare. 👌😘💕💯

You can't go wrong with SKYNYRD

I just love you two….he looks at you,Dominika, with such love ❣️

You two are awesome. Such wonderful spirits. I enjoy your reactions very much. Thank You.

Your reaction to this song is the most genuine one I've seen so far. I saw this band live in Denver Colorado from 1974 to 1977. I saw them 4 months before the plane crash. I was devastated.

A message that crosses all borders because it's truth

This is my favorite reaction. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings

❤best reaction ever ❤

The song is a relevant message that is timeless 50 years ago or today, a mother advising her sone on how to be a Simple Man to trust in GOD and you have everything you need to be Simple Man and Satisfied in Life...

Just a simple supper..in your warm small house..with your loved ones around you..is the world to me..

❤

There's a very interesting story behind this song. Check it out. Also these guys were in their late teens and early twenty's when they wrote this song.

I cry everytime I hear this song and was so honored to sing this for my older brother, at his funeral Mass, who died one month after our Dear Mother passed away. It's the only song I can sing well because I have been singing it for over 45 years, to myself at home, and in the car. I love and miss my Brother Johnny so much. He was a true Simple Man.

SO GLAD YOU ENJOYED LYNARD SKYNARD.... I GREW UP TO THEM...✌❤💙

Hey you guys,,nice to see you feel it

I absolutely love your reaction. It's always heartwarming to hear honest & different perspectives from different parts of the world. Your both beautiful souls Great reaction to a beautiful song that always pulls at your heartstrings. ❤ Stay safe

One of the most beautiful voices of all time. So soothing and angelic. Many hits from them and each just as powerful. Everything I Own Is another emotional journey.

Skynyrd's best 😊👍

He got emotional feelings. That's an awesome reaction from you both.

Words to live by!

I sent this song to my son after the first time hearing it. Such profound insight in a simply beautiful song.

My heart is with you ! I shower you with love and peace and I send your son lots of light and peace.

They are the God Fathers of real Southern Rock! They like to call the Allmen Brother Southern Rock...not so Much, they are the blues! Oh yeah, they are Goats!

I have been watching you two for quite a while now and just want to say how much I feel your hearts and enjoy your conversations - Thank you

This group is a wonderful adventure

The reason that messages like this song, written many years ago sounds to be so current is because the truth has no expiration date. I was 1 year old when this song was released.

Beautiful......

Wiser words I haven't heard in a long time...thank you...62 year old former marine from south carolina

I just love love love your reactions. I totally agree, live and love are the most important things we can do. From Cajun country I bid you peace my friends!

loved your reaction to a brilliant song

The story of this band is amazing. They truly were just coming into a phase where they were going to be writing their best stuff with guitarist Steve Gaines new in band and singer/ song writer Ronnie Van Zant about to stop the extreme alcohol abuse in band and so on. They were just trying to get to end of tour they were on and plane crash took Ronnie, Steve Gaines, Steve's sister Cassie , who was back up singer. Their deaths along with others on the crash was tragedy that still shakes the fan base to this day. The album released a week prior to crash had new tunes that were just steeping it up a notch. Steve's first album with the band. React to anything by this band and enjoy that it was made.

A very poignant song....so beautifully sung and so meaningful! Hello to YOU, BOTH!!! Another GREAT REACTION!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Good job!

Thanks for covering music from my little region in America, the deep south ,I so enjoy you two wonderful people and I hope you find our music magical because we want to share it with the world. ✌ and ❤

My Favorite Band!!

This is truly an epic song🙏. Thanks for this reaction. Shinedown do a fantastic cover of this👍👍👍

I've watched this video at least 10 times, your reaction is so honest and genuine, hope you guys are having a great day, be safe my friends 😊 😀 ❤️

The original lineup lasted for 4 years and yes I know all about their plane crash in Columbia, MS in 1977. I went to HS right down the road. The Beatles were the first "pop" band and Led Zeppelin, as great as they were, stole a lot of stuff from delta blues artists. I do love Zeppelin but Skynyrd's music is just more timeless. Maybe because it's %100 original.

Wonderful reaction to a great song.

Super, ihr beiden seid so gut!!!!!!!!

*One of the best song that's timeless*

love this song and it has a "kindred spirit" called Soulshine by The Allman Brothers Band

Wow, thanks. You two are lovely, real, empathetic, and open. Ronnie's Mama would be proud of you! Life is life - choose well Cheers rl 🤘👹🤘

Yall are great..love yalls reactions 62 year old former marine from south carolina

Humanity is the who US people were, it's now becoming a "goodtime Charlie" society. I was a highschool kid when this came out. We loved the message, my friends and I still wanted to emulate his mothers advice. The song is more important for young people to hear today then all those years ago..

When you do a good job, the world recognizes you! Great song, a direct message, straight to our hearts. Hugs from Brazil!

You two are great!

great to hear this song get much deserved attention. This whole album was like the soundtrack to highshcol back in the 70's. Can you believe it? I am now 65 and from Texas but was never a "country" fan. My generation had SO many options .. but this Souther Rock helped bridge the gap. Wore this album out. Great memories. Some things are timeless. You mentioned Charlie Daniels. Maybe he wrote it but I have no recollection of anyone else ever preforming this than Lynard Skynard. Never too late to learn something new. I have to go back and finish. So excited to hear this I just had to check in.
