Pat Finnerty on YouTube does a great series called What Makes This Song Stink. It's definitely not for everyone, as he doesn't give a shit about YouTube algorithms and keeping videos to an ideal length. But has a recent hour long video on Jason Aldean's Try That in a Small Town. The video (Pat Finnerty's not Jason Aldean's) is phenomenal.
Beato
This video is great, thanks for sharing, subscribed.
Honestly, they're worth going back and watching all of them from episode 1. He's got a lot of jokes that he builds up across episodes.
He hooked me so hard by showing how Ohio would sound over it, I wanted to laugh but I was also flabbergasted and so just noise and head shaking and disbelief is what I mustered.
But yea, I'll go back and watch the old ones. Thanks.
Pat Finnerty is a treasure. His podcast is also pretty funny if you haven't checked it out. But every day a new video from him drops is a good day.
Another video you (and @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected]) might enjoy is Chill Goblin's take on "Oliver Anthony, Welfare, and Blair Mountain". Oliver Anthony is the artist who did "Rich Men North of Richmond" and it's a really great breakdown with historical contexts from the mining union wars to the Reagan Era of "Welfare Queens".
Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out later today.
Todd in the Shadows also did a great breakdown of this song
