I met this guy 2 days ago, hes a really nice person! He shook hands with me and we talked a while before i helped him unload his equipment. This guy is not as famous as he should be.

My opinion is it’s racism… I think his wife is a black woman. He explained in one of his interviews… Also he’s not willing to spend the time away from his family that’s required to become rich and famous… That is a GOOD thing in my opinion…

This is the most relatable song that I've ever heard.
He always sings about things we all can relate to. Hell of a voice

This song hits the nail on the head. It's especially true when you have a very sick loved one and extended family may or may not show up for support.

he doesn't need fame... but people need to hear him, he really puts so much story into his songwriting and is a really talented musician that can help change a great many hearts and minds, he undoubtedly deserves more recognition
Can't believe I just heard him for the first time today. He's got a new fan
Paul Thorn is an amazing musical gift to the world!
How did I miss this gem for 10 years? And it shows up in my feed today as I'm blowing off a family reunion.
This is one of the most honest songs I've ever heard!

True that!
Not only is this man a great performer he also writes some fine and interesting songs, and dares to go into subjects matter far from the norm, no 'moon and June' for this writer, and as a song writer myself I understand the road he is traveling, and it's a hard road!! To anyone who thinks that they would like to start writing songs this video is a 'Master class' on songwriting.
Someone warned on another post to be careful, that Paul Thorn is addictive. And, he was right. Damn!

I was gonna listen to one song....Iv'e been here for 3 hours! This dude is pretty awesome.
I really, really do like this and most every one of his songs I've heard as well....
i loved this dude for years. he is my fav
Thank you, John Boy & Billy, for turnin me onto Paul!!! !st with the Christmas song!
This guy is pure song writing genus,I usually don't do the country/folk stuff he is pretty darn good.
The titles alone are hysterical, & the music is great-love it.
What a fun tune. I love this song!!
First time hearing this song and LOVE it...can totally relate! LOL
Yes, Paul is a kick ass songwriter.
Words couldn't be any truer
I LOVE Paul Thorn's music!!!!! TY, TY, TY!!!
I love this song & realize that most people feel the same way! I like this Man, he speaks from the Heart & Soul...
I think this is gonna be my new theme song.
My family reunion is going on today. My relatives have all flow in From places far away. As we sit here eatin' chicken It hits me like a truck. I don't like half the folks I love. My and my former best friend Had a big fallin' out. I caught him with my wife So I punched him in the mouth. We just can't hang out anymore But I still wish them luck. I don't like half the folks I love. God knows they're all dear to me But if the truth be told, I like it when they come, But I love it when they go. I'm sure they've got good qualities But the bad ones cover them up. I don't like half the folks I love. My alcoholic buddies are fun to hang around When we drink together, peace and joy are bound But sometimes they bring me one more shot When they know I've had enough I don't like half the folks I love. God knows they're all dear to me But if the truth be told, I like it when they come, But I love it when they go. I'm sure they've got good qualities But the bad ones cover them up. I don't like half the folks I love. In this world we live in This I guarantee We all need more tolerance To get along peacefully. But I'm not as nice as Jesus, And I really am fed up. I don't like half the folks I love. God knows they're all dear to me But if the truth be told, I like it when they come, But I love it when they go. I'm sure they've got good qualities But the bad ones cover them up. I don't like half the folks I love. I don't like half the folks I love.
I don't know how I found this, but it sure made my night! good stuff!
which is why i'm grateful all my family lives over 1200 miles away. AWESOME SONG!
paul you are really down to earth. Bless you for you truth in song!
I love it when they go 👍 Thanks Paul great song

Oh, how I love you and resonate with most of your songs! This one especially...
I love this fantastic song of Paul’s. So much so that I regularly cover it, especially at family gatherings. With tremendous respect to the original I wrote, or rewrote, an additional final section. Hate it or disregard it...I know it’s like putting legs on a snake but here it is anyway: I know they all love me in their own little ways But when they see me coming they all run away We all got good qualities but the bad ones cover them up We don’t like half the folks we love We don’t like half the folks we love
Just found this guy DAMN HE'S SO GOOD
Love this song.
So much truth in this song.
I first heard Paul on a Mountain AM radio while camping. I was hooked ever since.

Great writer and performer
I don't like anyone I love. So strange, but my family has taught me what love is. Love is committing to a person, no matter what. Even if you hate someone, you could still love them.

BANG! That one Hit me right between the horns! It is something I am aware of on some level, but don't often acknowledge. The other side of that, is the realization that some of the people I love, probably feel the same way about me. :) Thanks for posting this great song!
His accent and personality is awesome Paul Thorn come to Maine please
i so adore this man 22 may hotlanta, I will pay for 2 tickets and enjoy the hell outta a it!
I'm with you on that bro...
Love that song
When you hint at it with some one but it goes over there head 😝❤️❤️
great song writer !
love him and his music,, wooo-whooooo he is awesome
Instead of peddling all these clowns, Paul Thorn should be the big ticket on some of the TV shows recicling the same artists with some commercially polished names over and over again. This guy is great.
Perfect song for the holidays!
Just Because They're Family Doesn't Mean You Have to Love Them....And if you do love em you sure in the he!! don't have to like em. Love his songs, he reminds me of Jason Statham...THAT'S A GOOD THING!!
Love this one!!!!!
keep listening & hear more. Honest. Favorite on playlist!
YEAH!! LOVIN' ME SOME PAUL THORN!!!
Soo much truth, it would be nice if people had empathy and we're kind and considerate, unfortunately there's not many out there
This guy is the real deal.And i know how he feels lol
I adore this man!
Paul Thorn you are a legend!
A masterpiece.
He’s our modern Elvis. Tupelo always producing the best musicians.

Just got back from his concert at THE HOUSE OF BLUES in Orlando & had seats four rows from the stage seats, while the TIGHTEST BAND I HAVE HEARD IN TEN YEARS, BLEW THE TIN ROOF OFF OFF OF THE PLACE! His guitarist is close to being early Hendrix, he's that GOOOOOOOOOOOD!!! The best show & audience response you have EVER HEARD!!!
I love this and its so darn true!
that voice !
Another great perfomance
great song and so true!
Love your music
Like his honesty in his songs
How true is this!!!I guess we ALL have those relatives.
OMG 🐾🐾 I love your music 🐾🐾 plz keep makin me laugh🐾🐾😁😁
What a great song...I can attest to the truth of it!
Hmm.. I wonder if he's related to the same people I am....
