Speaker 1 (00:07):
Hey, everybody, Bobby here, we're going to do the top
ten greatest Garth Brooks songs of all time. And you
might think, are you even Bobby, are you Garth Brooks.
I'm not. It's me.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
It's not Garth Brooks. I'm just wearing the hack because
we're talking about Garth Brooks. So the top ten greatest
Garth Brooks songs of all time, from my opinion, the
greatest country music artist of all time.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Here we go at number ten, Rodeo. How hard does
that first note hit in Rodeo? The reason I put
Rodeo on the list is one, it's an awesome song,
but two, I didn't know what a laddigo was. As
a matter of fact, in the lyrics of Garth Brooks Rodeo,
it's boots and chaps, it's cowboy hats, it's spurs and laddigo.
(00:59):
I grew up its spurs and let it go. Didn't
even know ladigo was a thing until I got older.
For those wondering at home, what ladigo is, It's a long,
heavy leather strap used on a western saddle, used a
tighten and secure and cinch around the horse's belly. So
(01:22):
the next time you sing that song and someone sings
and let it go. It's like ladigo, and then explain
to them that it's actually part of what you put
on a horse in a saddle. So number ten is rodeo. Man,
what a jam that was At number nine. I want
(01:43):
to take you back to sixth grade for me at
Mountain Pine High School. Now, we had this competition and
it was basically a lip sync battle type competition. It
was called Putting on the Hits, and you get up
and you lip sync a song and there were like
ten competitors from all ages and whomever lip synced the
song the best won the competition. And me, I was
(02:05):
a big Race Stevens fan, and there was a song
by Ray Stevens called The Streak and it went like this,
Oh yes, they called him the Streak, and it was
about a streaker. It literally was about a streaker, and
to me it was hilarious. I love Ray Stevens. Ray
s Evens and Adam Sandler are two of the reasons
that I got into comedy music later in my life,
(02:27):
and so I do The Streak. And there was a
kid that I knew his family. He was in like
second grade, and he put on this this suit, like
a body suit that was tan, and so I'm singing
like Ray Stevens and he's like a news reporter. He's like, hey,
I'm in the say and it's the streak and he goes,
oh yes. And then and then the kid comes running
(02:49):
out in like a full bodysuit. Crowd went crazy. Like
I'm talking about, we were set to dominate putting on
the hits. There was only one act left to go
after us. That act was Christie and Aubrey. They were
in my class. They were probably the two most popular
(03:11):
girls in school. What song did they do? Two of
a Kind and working on a Full House? Now, one
of the girls played Garth, who was like the husband. Oh,
she's my little uber, I'm a wilhar okay, and the
other one played the wife and they had this house
set behind them kind of background. It was solid all
(03:32):
the way through. But they weren't going to beat the streak.
Like I had a kid that I knew in a
full body suit running out it. We were easily going
to be number one in that lip sync contest. Near
the end of the song two of a Kind Working
on a Full House, Aubrey, who was playing the wife smiles.
(03:59):
She had blacked out her two front teeth. It got
a bigger laugh than the kid that was wearing the
streak outfit. They won. We finished second. Garth Brooks song
Two of a Kind Working on a Full House is
one of my favorite Garth Brooks songs, but I will
only put it at nine because it ripped a victory
(04:20):
from me in the sixth grade putting on the Hits challenge.
But it is my number nine song in the Greatest
Garth Brooks Songs of All Time. At number eight. I
remember watching this video. It came on CMT and it
was one of the videos I feel that made me
feel first. The only other one that I would put
(04:43):
in front of this is Tim McGraw Don't Take the Girl.
I watched that video and I was like, I don't
even know what planet I'm living on, Like I'm emotional
watching this whole situation. Johnny and his dad's taking a
vision that's nothing. Wait till Johnny gets held at like gunpoint,
knife gets robbed, Wait till Johnny loses his Why that
video wrecked me? The other video that made me feel
(05:05):
is my number eight Garth Brooks song Standing Outside the
Fire If you have not watched that video and you
didn't feel I don't believe you have feelings standing outside
the Fire Now, this song is all about living life
to the fullest. The video was a kid with down
syndrome running and falling and training and told he couldn't
(05:28):
do it, and then it is an uplifting, inspiring video
that makes you feel only second all time to Don't
Take the Girl. When you're a kid growing up Mountain Pine,
Arkansas watching on CMT my number eight song from Garth
Brooks is Standing Outside the Fire at number seven on
my list, and I always wondered if they actually stole
(05:51):
this from a night of bad weather. Then yeah, thunder Rolls.
I would listen to that on tape and I would
think about that night when they obviously took a tape
recorder out and just recorded the sky. I was a moron.
I didn't know how music worked. I didn't know about
(06:12):
sound effects. But I remember hearing the thunder and going, man,
that song's crazy. He's dirty in the morning, not a
sould inside, and I was like, man, it's dark and
it's got thunder and it's like when I heard the
secret verse for the first time on the double live album.
After I had already sang the song ten million times
(06:32):
and I knew how the story ended with the original
Thunder I heard that secret verse, and now I was like,
I don't even know what my life has been. It's
all been a fraud until I knew the last verse
of this song. So the last verse of the thunder
Rolls by Garth Brooks. If you don't know, it's dark.
It's famously controversial. It is not on the studio album
(06:56):
spoiler alert. It features a wife grabbing a pistol. She
goes to the dresser drawer, she grabs a pistol, and
she shoots her cheating husband. It's from nineteen ninety eight's
double live album. He'll only play it live, and man,
when he does in concert, and I've seen him do it,
the place freaking erupts because you're only going to hear
that on the live album or Garth performing live. Thunder
(07:18):
rolls at number seven on the Greatest Garth Brooks Songs
of All Time at number six. The year was nineteen
ninety two. I was just a kid, but it was
my first experience in having pretty much a full time
job through the summer. It was the first year that
(07:39):
I'd ever been on a roofing team group. So now,
since I was a kid, I really wasn't able to
actually get up and do the roofing. I would do
that later in my life. But when you're twelve years old,
you're on the cleanup crew, and that is the suckiest
part of the job because what would happen is you
(08:01):
wake up to butt crack it on, you drive in,
you wait for the roofers to go up on the
roof with the shovels and tear off the old roof
and you're just sitting down there like this. They throw
the roof, the shingles, all the garbage, all the nails,
it's on the ground. It surrounds the house, and it
is up to you to actually pick up every even
(08:22):
the nails. You gotta pick up everything, and you gotta
take it to the dump and the trailer, and then
you've got to unload the trailer same thing, all of
that garbage. It was the worst job of all the
jobs that I had. Now later in life I would
actually get to roof houses, a very difficult job, but
being on the clean up crew of roofing houses every
(08:42):
morning for three months total thumbs down. That being said,
in that year of nineteen ninety two, as I was
going to roof well clean up roof houses, that summer
seemed to play on the radio every freaking morning on
the way to work and on the way home. That
(09:03):
summer is a wild song because supposedly it's kind of true.
Now that summer is about a teenage boy so far
from home. Now, there was this lonely widow woman. She
was hell bent to make it on her own. Now
she had lost her husband. All of a sudden, he's
hooking up with the widowed woman. My favorite part of
(09:23):
it is he's a teenage boy, right, and he's hooking
up with this widowed woman who had hands of leather,
and then I believe they turned to velvet all of
a sudden when they started making sweet love. So you
got this teenage boy making love to this widowed woman.
And I would always get a little chuckle when I
got older at the line she had the need to
(09:44):
feel the thunder. That's a lot of praise for thyself,
saying that you possessed the thunder, that you, as a
teenage boy, are giving this widow woman the thunder. High
praise for yourself go and your love making, and so
(10:04):
he thundered her all summer long. And it's my number
six song in the Greatest Garth Brooks Songs of All Time,
and number five there was a song that I used
to justify over and over me not getting what I
(10:27):
wanted in life. I'd pray for ice cream. I'd pray
that i'd hit a home run every baseball game. I'd
pray for a girlfriend, and rarely would any of those
things happen. Around the time this song came out, and
I would think, I'm praying for all this stuff, why
is it not happening? But then unanswered Prayers came out,
(10:48):
and then I thought to myself, maybe it's not happening
because it's not supposed to happen, and maybe some of
God's greatest gifts actually are unanswered prayers. And then you
hear the song and it's like it's a high school
football game, and like he used to like dream to
be with her, and then all of a sudden, but
(11:10):
he's got the real one now, his wife. But he
used to pray to always be with her. Now he's like,
sometimes I thank God for unanswer prayers because I used
to pray for that whole bag over there. But now
I got the good one. So that's what that song
did for me. When I didn't hit a home run
and I would pray before the game, Please Lord, let
me hit a home run. Maybe I went one for
(11:30):
four with three strikeouts. Please Lord, let me hit a
home run, and I wouldn't. Please Little let me get
a girl to like me, and they wouldn't. I'd go
to myself. Maybe God's greatest skip his unanswered prayers here,
you know what. That's how I got through life until
about twenty five or so. Anyway, good song, great song.
It's my number five song all time in Garth Brooks's
(11:53):
greatest songs.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Hang tight, the Bobby Cast will be right back, and
we're back on the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now we're getting to four, and this is where it
gets to be a bit tough because these are the
greatest of the great And I think if you just
were to ask, like normal folks who were casuals in
country music, hey, what's the greatest Garth song? I think
they would say friends in Low Places. Now I've only
(12:32):
got it at number four because you know why, I'm
not a freaking casual. That's why now. It is the
song that I think most people know. It is a
song that's played most of probably fraternity parties. It is
the song that probably most people are covering if they're
playing country bars down on Broadway, like it's that Garth
brook song. It is ubiquitous where there is country music.
Everywhere there's country music. There's friends in low places. That
(12:57):
being said, I want to tell you my favorite Garth
Brooks story about this song. It's few years ago, maybe
like eight or nine at this point, and I had
talked to Garth a few times in the week leading
up to a show that I do at the Ryman
(13:17):
Auditorium in Nashville every single year for charity, and Garth
had called into my show and he said, hey, he's
putting out some music. And he was like, Hey, any
money that I make this week on this album, I'm
going to donate it to the charity that you're working for.
And I was like, dang, that's awesome, because Saint Jude
Children's Hospital that I've worked with for a long time
and we have luckily been able to raise a lot
(13:38):
of money. And I thought, dang, Garth are going to
donate any money he makes off his new album for
a whole week, like is that even true? First of all,
and then secondly like how do I do the accounting
on that?
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Like I don't.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I don't have books, remember thinking that, like open the books,
let me see the books, Garth. And so that was
on like a Tuesday. Our show was a couple of
days later. I didn't hear from Garth at all. Garth.
I thought Garth was ghost to me. Wanted the books, Garth,
Hey just call me back, Garth. Nothing was happening. And
(14:11):
then I thought, maybe he'll show up to the show
because it was like my full band. We had other
artists like jumping in doing a couple songs here, doing
a song there, and again it was all for Saint Jude.
All the tickets went to Saint Jude. What an amazing
night it was. We're probably eight tenths of the way
through the show and someone says in my ear, Hey,
did you know Garth Brooks is here? Show me the books. Garth.
(14:35):
That's what I thought, not really, but I thought, Dang,
I wonder if he's here to like watch He's heard,
he's heard about how good the band is. And I
was like, where is he in the crowd. He goes, no,
he's backstage and he wants to come out and present
a check, and I was like, oh, he really is
doing this, And so he's got one of them big
(14:55):
checks he cannot cash. By the way, it's just a token,
it's not really so then you can take to the
bank and he walks it out and just a couple
of million dollars from Garth Brooks to Saint Jude Children's
Research Hospital. And I'm blown away because that was our
entire goal. I didn't get paid for doing the show,
(15:17):
put the whole thing together out of the goodness in
my heart and for something much greater than me, kids
with cancer. Garth did not have to donate the money
from his new music that he was putting out. I
didn't even ask him about it. He just volunteered it.
He didn't have to show up, he didn't have to
give me all of it, he didn't have to show
me the books. And he shows up with a check
for a couple million dollars and he's like, I forgot
(15:38):
about you, but I got this check and he brings
it out. Now I've got a really strong band, and
I also know that Garth is the ultimate performer. So
I look over at Brandon Rey, or lead guitarist at
the time, and I say, hey, just play the intro,
and he does Doom Doom, Doom, Friends in Low Places,
(16:01):
and Garth does this thing where he's like he looks
around and he's not dressed totally as Garth. He's got
on like a leather jacket. But Garth is a performer.
And also we had him like he just donated two
(16:22):
million dollars. He's on stage at the Ryman. We're playing
probably his most popular song, He's not Gonna leave his hanging.
Brandon hits it boomom, Garth looks around, walks up to
the microphone, blame it all, and the crowd melts the
walls of the Ryman. All of us in the band
(16:44):
were like, oh my god. We didn't even rehearse the
song because it was never really an idea that Garth
Brooks was just gonna do a little pop in. And
then once we had him doing the pop in, we'd
play a song. We had just played that song so
many times just doing a cover at our show is
that we knew the song. I have a really great picture.
It's one of my favorite pictures ever It is the
(17:06):
microphone in the middle, Garth standing here singing into it,
me holding my guitar standing here. We're singing into the
same microphone, and we're just kind of doing the cool
lead sing. It's really cool. But not only did Garth
Brooks donate millions of dollars that night, we sang Friends
in Low Places together. Epic and it's my number four
(17:28):
all time Garth Brooks song and number three. When I
think of great piano fade outs, November Rain comes to
mind from Guns and Roses. It was never really that
much of a g n R fan, but I really
liked that video. And that video I think was two
(17:48):
days long if I remember correctly, it literally was like
forty seven hours, and it was at a church and
Slash playing and there's a big piano and some wedding
and all this is happening and big piano lead in,
big piano out. That was a legitimate piano song with
a great piano fade. However, my number three song from
(18:11):
Garth Brooks, I feel, has an even more epic piano
fade out. Also, it might be the greatest junior high
dance song ever. It probably fights with Casey and Jojo
Baby Baby, Baby, Baby, baby, baby Baby All my Life.
Also a great piano song to Noo Dun Dune Dune.
(18:31):
When that song played Junior High Dances, you're like, ah, man,
this is like my one chance to dance with somebody,
And so you go out in the middle, you sheepishly
walk around, you want to dance. It was Casey and Jojo.
It was Garth Brooks the Dance. I thought that was
a very romantic song until later in life I thought
(18:53):
it was about really just dancing. And obviously now you
realize it's very much the sad song about you know,
last run with someone loved the song needed it in
Junior High, greatest piano fade out song of all time,
and the story of that song's pretty amazing. So there's
a place in town called the Bluebird Cafe. I've been
(19:14):
lucky to have played a bunch of times, and the
show Nashville made it really famous to people who aren't
in town and aren't part of the songwriter community here.
And it's very small. It's way smaller than you think
it is. It's also the beauty.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Of the place.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
And so you're in this room and they're serving a
little bit of food and they put like four chairs
in the middle of the room and there's four microphones
and you're playing in a circle and sitting on the
outside of you or all the people. I mean, you're
talking about sixty to seventy people, that's it, sitting all
over the room. Garth Brooks heard Tony Ratta playing that
(19:52):
song the Dance at the Bluebird Cafe. So Garth Brooks
at the time was very much a struggling newcomer guy
coming to town trying to make it, having not a
lot of success. When heard him play that song, afterword,
everybody just kind of gets up and you can just
talk and mingle with the people that were playing there.
And Garth Brooks told him that if he ever got
(20:12):
a record deal, he was going to record that song.
And Garth Brooks kept his freaking word and he recorded
that song on his self titled debut album. And that
song's awesome for junior high kids, for adults love country music,
and for people that love piano fade outs. That's a
(20:32):
right at number three, it's the dance at number two.
This is basically the ted Talk of Garth Brooks songs.
This is the song that I don't know we're all
going through something. Everybody you see is going through something.
You've heard that right. Everybody you see needs to hear
this song at some point in their day or at
least their week, because this song is about life moving forward.
(20:58):
This song's about your dreams. The song's about safety. The
point of this song is if you never start, you
never actually have a chance to live. If you never
launch your boat and you never really get on the river,
you never have a chance to get down the river.
(21:21):
The boat is your dream. The banks are safety. It's
great the bank's there, but you don't want to always
roll back to the bank. And the whole point is
put your boat in the water. You know, a dream
is like a vessel, and you will sail that vessel
till the river runs freakin dry. The number two greatest
(21:43):
Garth Brooks song of all time is again the Ted
Talk the Tony Robbins of Garth Brooks songs the River,
And now it's time for the number one greatest Garth
Brooks of all time. I had a friend when I
was in fifth grade at Lake Hamilton School. I bounced
(22:06):
around a lot whenever I was growing up, moving from
trailer park to apartment to trailer park to apartment, and
I had to go to a lot of new schools,
especially early in my life. It's tough when you're a
kid and you're bouncing in new schools, especially early, because
it's constantly being reintroduced to other new kids, and kids
(22:26):
just generally aren't that nice then all like new kids
coming to school. It did teach me a skill set
that I'm glad that I have. But when I was
bouncing around and I go to Lake Hamilton, which was
the largest school that I ever went to, I did
not have a lot of friends and I was only
there for a very limited time. There was one friend
(22:49):
that I made at Lake Hamilton School, and he lived
pretty close and it was the only kid that I
would ever go and spend the night with. Now, I
wasn't someone that also liked to leave home, and so
wasn't someone who would go and spend the night with people,
mostly because I just didn't have a lot of friends.
But this one friend I felt close enough that I
(23:10):
would go to his house and I remember his dad
was like a delivery driver for vending machines and he
always had unlimited chips, just boxes of unlimited chips you
named the chip he had the small bags in them
at his house. I thought that was the coolest thing.
He had unlimited, seemingly wrestling magazines and wrestling vhs tapes
of all the pay per views back in the day, Halloween, Havoc, Starcade,
(23:34):
all the Wrestlemannia Is. Oh, that was the greatest thing ever.
And not only that, he had a double decker at
home CD player. Now occasionally you see a CD player
in somebody's car, but CDs were still pretty new at
the time. For him to have a double decker at
home CD player with a stereo system where we could
(23:56):
read wrestling magazines and listen to music, I thought it
was a cool thing I'd ever seen in my entire life.
And he had a CD that I just wanted to
play over and over and over again. And that CD
was Garth Brooks self titled first album, Garth Brooks, and
(24:18):
I would put it on and I would play it,
and then it stopped being where I would just play
the whole album. It started to be where I would
play my favorite song over and over again, which is
my number one song here. And when I would play
this song, I would think that's so deep. What if
tomorrow doesn't come? Does my grandma know I love her?
(24:40):
That's what I would think. Obviously I didn't have a
girlfriend and really wouldn't have one for a long time.
But I thought about that, Well, my grandma know I
love her up to it, so I'd go home after
it's been like, but Grandma, I love you. But Garth Brooks,
if tomorrow never comes, will she know how much I
love her? Garth Brooks Number one song of all time.
(25:03):
Also Garth Brook's first ever number one song, There you
have It, Folks, Top ten Garth Brooks Songs of all Time,
Honorable mention much too young to fill this blank old
(25:25):
I did not put that on the list. That was
actually Garth's first single. It did not go number one
because it had the D word in it. Probably would have,
but there were some program directors at radio stations across
the country that did not want to play that song
because it had the D word in it, So that
song did not go number one. His second single, If
Tomorrow never comes, his first number one. If Tomorrow never
(25:47):
comes my number one. If tomorrow never comes, I'll leave
you with this Garth Brooks story. I've told it a
few times recently. A few years ago, April Fol's Day,
I get a call from somebody to be Garth Brooks
from a number that I don't know. At this point
in my life. I know Garth Brooks a little bit.
I have his number on my phone. No, I'm well
(26:07):
enough to text him occasionally. So this number that was
calling me was a new number. It was not Garth Brooks.
And it was April Fool's Day. And the voice comes
on and says, hey, can you open up a show
for me? And I'm like, we'll get Garth Brooks. And
I was on the air. I did not think it
was Garth Brooks. So I told Fate Garth Brooks, Hey,
I'm doing the radio show right now. Can I call
(26:28):
you back in a couple hours. I'll be done now.
Fate Garth Brooks was very nice and he was like, yeah, sure,
call me back later in the day. So I go
home and get my wife say, hey, I'm gonna put
this on speaker. Somebody's trying to prank me. Record this
because I want to have evidence of me knowing that
I'm getting pranked. And so she's recording it and I
called fake Garth Brooks up on a number that I
(26:50):
didn't know because I had real Garth Brooks's number on
my phone, so fate Garth Brooks answer is like hey Bobby,
and I'm like hey Garth. I say, hey, sorry about
that earlier. What was you like? What can I do
for you? And he said, I think it'd be awesome.
We're going to play Razorback Stadium in Arkansas. We expect
(27:11):
at least one hundred thousand people to be there, and
I want you to come out and open up the show.
That same band that he came and performed with at
the Rhyman. He wanted that same band to come and
open for him, supposedly, and I'm like, yeah, man, no problem,
love to do it. And I'm pretty short about it
(27:32):
because I'm just like, I'm not getting fooled by this.
And my wife goes, I think that's him really? And
then I say is this really Garth Brooks? And he
goes yeah. I said, you know it's April Fol's Day, right.
He goes, oh, I didn't even think about that. I said, so,
I've never thought this was really Garth Brooks. Can I
(27:52):
text your old number? And he goes yeah, sure, So
I text the old number and he goes, yeah, I
just got it, and I was like, oh my god,
it's Garth Brooks. The whole time, I never thought it
was Garth Brooks. Like I'm telling you, I was like
disregarding the things he was saying because I didn't want
to to seem like I was getting April Folds pranked.
And so I said, yes, I would love to do
that smash cut day of the show. It's a couple
(28:13):
months later, Garth is doing these football stadiums. It's at
my favorite place on Earth, Razorback Football Stadium. And I
didn't know if we were going on at first, at
like the five thirty PM slot. I know when it was,
but we were doing a sound check. And it's crazy
to do a sound check in a stadium because you're
nippy stadium and it feels weird and the sounds weird,
(28:34):
and it's massive. Like I've played in arenas, I've played
in theaters, I've never played in a football stadium. And
I'm talking the whole stadium too, not where you block
off a backside of it and you play the whole thing.
And so we're doing soundcheck and Garth Brooks and Trisha
Yearwood they come out to soundcheck and talk to them
for a few minutes, and Garth says, hey, if you
(28:56):
guys are feeling it, because they gave us twenty five
minutes to play, which is a long time. He said,
if you're feeling it, just keep playing longer, like, I
don't care, I'm going to play all night too. And
I said, wow, that's crazy. I said, we're not going
to do that because no, but if you're feeling it,
And then Garth walks off, and Tricia, who I love, goes, yeah,
I wouldn't feel it too much fout you and I
was like, yeah, I don't worry. We're not going to
(29:17):
go over. And so I still really don't know where
we are in the slot. And he says, hey, you're
going to go on right before I do. And so
there were a few acts overall in the first act played,
second act played, and then we were about to go on,
and Guard's like, don't go out yet. I want it
to be fully dark before you go out, so you
can experience it under the lights, he said, And also
(29:40):
when you go out, use the whole stage. Now, whenever
you perform in something like a football stadium, it's all
the way around, so you've got to run all the
way around to make sure that you're kind of looking
in everyone's direction. I think the thing that happens a
lot of the time, if not most of the time,
is that an opening act or a support act does
(30:01):
not get the whole stage. The whole stage is usually
just for whomever the main performer is, and the very
opening act has a very small spot. The mid act
has a slightly bigger spot, but you don't get access
to the whole stage. It's the main guys stage. Garth
was like, use the whole stage, run all around, make
sure everybody feels seen, and so that's what we did.
(30:22):
We played for exactly twenty five minutes. We did a
hog cough with over one hundred and ten thousand people,
and then we stayed and watched Garth show. And it
was really one of the cooler moments ever to get
to play my favorite place with my favorite country artist
at night, and it really beat him and not an
(30:45):
April Fools Garth. I just kept waiting though before we
went on for him to come out and go April Fools.
We got you out here, You're not performing, are you crazy?
So there you go. That's my Garth Brooks Top ten list.
Rodeo at ten, two of a kind of working on
a full house at nine, standing outside the Fire at eight,
thunder Rolls at seven, that Summer at six, Unanswered Prayers
(31:08):
at five, Friends in Low Places at four, the Dance
at three, the River at two, and if tomorrow never comes,
the number one greatest Garth Brooks song of all time.
And with that, I say let it go.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
The Bobby Cast will be right back. Welcome back to
the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Okay, So if you're listening to this, we did not
put this part on Netflix. That first part was on Netflix,
but I wanted to bring Eddie in for a second.
I did my top ten all time Garth Brooks songs.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
Wow, I know that's tough.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
I know, and then I have some thoughts about what
I left off. I still feel good about it. But
what's your number one Garth Brooks song of all time?
Speaker 5 (32:02):
Gosh, dude, I would have to say the River would
probably have to be my favorite Garth Brooks song. Gosh,
there's so many though, there's so many. But I remember
calling radio stations to play the live version of the
River and they'd be like, are you crazy, Like we
don't have live versions and we don't play that on
(32:23):
the radio. But I love the River so much.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
I'm pretty sure because I don't have my notes in
front of me, that the River was probably number two
on my list.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
Okay, that's good, or maybe four.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
It's one of those two. It's in the top, isn't
top five?
Speaker 4 (32:34):
I mean, I know you're number one if Tomorrow Never Comes?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Yeah? Yeah, how do you feel about that being my
number one?
Speaker 4 (32:41):
I love it? I mean If Tomorrow Never Comes is
so good?
Speaker 1 (32:44):
And it was on the first record. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
And when he plays that live and he kind of
lets you sing it, I mean that is it that one?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Or yeah?
Speaker 1 (32:51):
He does well. He does all of them, but the
one that we're thinking about specifically, he did If Tomorrow
Never Comes with nothing.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
We saw him in Little Rock and he like started
just him and the guitar and then just kind of
let us all sing it.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
He didn't even play guitar anymore. He just beat on
his chest for the rhythm.
Speaker 4 (33:05):
He even took his hat off. Like how beautiful is this?
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Classic? Guard? Classic? So I want to talk about Garth
music videos? Ooh great, because this is not something I
jumped into I'd mentioned a couple of songs that I
felt strongly about the music videos, But what do you
think is the best Garth Brooks video of all time?
Speaker 4 (33:22):
Thunder Rolls, Go Ahead the thunder Rolls.
Speaker 5 (33:24):
The fact that like he turned that song into a
mini movie, you know, it was really cool. The imagery
of the thunder Rolls is already so good in the song.
It was cool to see everything happening, you know, at
three thirty in the morning, when I remember the rain
drops on the windshield literally, you know, and the guy's
trying to look through the windshield while the wifers are
(33:45):
trying to wipe the water off, and then you know,
like it gets you know, the story. Then he gets
the house and everything goes down. But to me, that
was so cool. But I remember I bought a V eight. Dude,
I am number one Garth Brooks fan. I was in
the fan club. I had all this merch. I used
to buy the brush Proper shirts, you know, the stuff
(34:05):
from his album The Mobetas.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
You're saying words that I don't know, but I can
picture what Garth was wearing.
Speaker 5 (34:11):
Mobeta was the brand, and I did research when internet
wasn't even a thing. Of like, what are these shirts
that he's wearing in these album covers, you know, the
rope and the wind one with the blue and black
stripes that go down the chase, the one with the
white and the black checkered, you know, and then the
red and the black check.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
I can picture all of them. I just didn't know
that's what they're.
Speaker 5 (34:31):
Calling all those The brand was Mobeta, so anyway, but
I remember I ordered somewhere either the website or the
catalog that I got from the fan club of a
video of all of those videos in it, the dance
thunder Rolls. I feel like it had maybe a couple
more I don't remember. And there's an interview of him
(34:52):
on there talking about how he hated music videos because,
as like someone who sang these songs, he wanted the
listener to interpret, to interpret these songs however they wanted
to interpret it. And he felt like when he did
a music video, it told the listener, Hey, this is
what the song's about, and then there's no change in it,
right like, once you see the video, that's what it is.
(35:14):
And he hated that about it, but I guess the
label made him do videos.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Also. You could do a video just playing the music. Yeah,
and not really do a story, you know, because I
do understand his point.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
But that wasn't really his especially the style for all
those early videos like the Dance.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
Do you remember that video?
Speaker 5 (35:34):
No, they were all as a montage of all of
these people that have done something special in the world,
that have that died early.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
Oh so Lane Frost was in the video, Keith Whitley
was in the video. John F.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
Kennedy was in the video, like Martin Luther King was
in the video. Like it was just a huge montage
with those kind of people. So when I thought the
song was really really just about a dance, I knows
about life.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
I don't remember that video. Yeah. My favorite video and
I talked about it in the episode was standing outside
the Fire.
Speaker 5 (36:05):
Oh that was That was the the kid with down
syndrome and does he fall at the fall?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Well, but he keeps going, yes, he's got all the blood, dude.
I totally remember that one. That one hits hard. Yes, uh,
the one that I didn't only much care for the song,
but the video is kind of embedded in my brain
as the Red Strokes.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
What was the video? Oh, I was at the Red
Paint means splattered everywhere.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Yeah, it's a white room. He's wearing a white tuxedo,
and then the white piano. As the song clays, the
red paint begins to violently splatter across the Roomy.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
Dude, I do remember that.
Speaker 5 (36:38):
I also to remember standing outside, no, not staying outside
the fire, which is the the one that he didn't
sing at the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
We Shall be Free, We Shall be Free. He wanted
that video to air before the super Bowl. You know
it did happen in the super Bowl?
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Is that what happened?
Speaker 1 (36:51):
So the story is, and Mike, I'm pretty sure I'm
right about this. If I'm not, please correct me. At
the end, Garth was supposed to sing the national anthem
for the Super Bowl, and right before he's like, I
want you to show the video for we Shall be Free,
and they're like, no, we can't. It's the super Bowl.
It goes I'm not going to sing force them to
play the video if we Shall be Free before the
(37:12):
super Bowl. It got so close to them just going
screw it. They went to John bon Jovie, who was
in the crowd, and said, will you be able to
come sing the national anthem? If Garth Brooks doesn't sing
the national anthem as a backup, and in the end
they showed the video do we Shall Be Free? It
was a great video.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
What what a stalemate?
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Like?
Speaker 5 (37:31):
What like a what do you call that when you're
just kind of like taking it all the way down
to the last minute?
Speaker 1 (37:38):
I stand off, stand off balls. But that one was
like natural disasters and when you talk about because I
didn't remember the dance, but for we Shall be Free,
it was like cultural triumphs natural disasters I think were
the famous people well I remember that it was Michael
(37:58):
Jordan in that video was we Shall be Free? I'm
gonna Mike is my story right though it's correct.
Speaker 6 (38:03):
Happened in nineteen ninety three, and they refer to it
as a forty five minute standoff.
Speaker 4 (38:07):
That's what it is, a standoff. And Garth won that
versus the Super.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Bowl versus a freaking Zuper Bowl.
Speaker 4 (38:15):
I'd avoid Garth.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
What other videos can you remember? Because of my mind?
That's all they came to my mind. It was like
the great ones.
Speaker 5 (38:21):
I mean there was also I think if Tomorrow Never Comes,
but that was like a singing like the one you're
talking about.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yeah, that one to me doesn't even register.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
What the visual was because he's just kind of singing.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
How many concerts of Garth's did you go to over
the years?
Speaker 4 (38:34):
One?
Speaker 1 (38:35):
No, two?
Speaker 5 (38:38):
Correct, you're right, but yeah, the one, the first one
ever was Little Rock with you and Amy, and then
the second one was the one where we.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
We opened up for Garth and then we stayed watched. Yeah,
but not for the whole thing, No, because it was
impossible to get out. And I was told because that
football stadium they were not prepared for one hundred and
ten thousand. It holds seventy thousand, and it's to get
out on game days because Fabelle is not a large town. Yeah,
and so they said, hey, if you want to get
out in less than two hours, because there was problems
(39:08):
of everybody getting in at the beginning.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
Wow, Oh, is that why everyone didn't show for our set?
Speaker 1 (39:13):
No?
Speaker 4 (39:13):
Nah, they were all there.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
I remember Garth didn't he wait to send us out
until everyone was already in their seats, because I remember
playing to a full stadium.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
So he first of all didn't start the show at
all with the opener until later because there were problems
with people getting in because that football stadium had never
been used for a concert. That was the first time ever,
first time ever they allowed like all the first of all,
no concert ever. But then they had people on the
field right it was totally sold out, so he didn't
started it all until later. And then he said, hey,
(39:43):
you guys shouldn't go on until like it's dark because
you'll like it better dark.
Speaker 4 (39:46):
And he was right.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
That was the balling that was so baller. You never
got to go as a kid to see Garth Brook No, man.
Speaker 5 (39:52):
I watched all the specials on TV. My dream was
to go to a concert, but there was just no way.
I remember even the Ireland Con series. I thought like, gosh,
how cool would it be to go to those?
Speaker 4 (40:03):
But those never happen.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
I was gonna say, I don't remember those. I've seen
the shirts.
Speaker 5 (40:08):
There because there was a huge promotion for the because
I remember he had a a I think Fresh Horses
was the album. He had a song called Ireland, and
he was very connected to Ireland and he was a
dream of his to play in Ireland, and he did,
like these five shows, booked these five shows to play
in Ireland. But I guess there was a problem with
the country either allowing him to perform there or making
(40:32):
money there or something where. It just never happened. I
think later, later in life it did happen. Like he
eventually did play Ireland.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
Yeah, he eventually even in our place here. I think
he's played since. Yes, we've been here. But Garth Brooks
canceled his highly anticipated twenty fourteen Well that was while.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
We were here. Huh No, I feel like the Ireland.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
No no, because the Dublin City Council refused a grant
licenses for all five shows.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
Oh so we were already here.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Maybe so.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
Dang.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Due to planning caps and heavy pushback from local residents
regarding neighborhood disruption, the council only approved permits for three nights.
Brooks famously issued an ultimatum, five shows are none at all.
Speaker 4 (41:10):
It's it he's trying to go.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
We shall be free again.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
He was like, I beat the super Bowl, I want
to beat Ireland.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
Now, stating that choosing which nights to cancel would be
like choosing between his own children. When the city stood firm,
he pulled the plug on the entire event, forcing over
four hundred thousand ticket refunds.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
Dang, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Croke Park had a limit of hosting a maximum of
three non sporting special events per year. Because the boy
band One Direction had already played three shows there, adding
five Garth Brooks concerts violated the venue's typical threshold. Then
there was neighborhood backlash. Garth's refusal to compromise. The story
ultimately reached a happy ending. So if that was twenty fourteen,
(41:51):
that was a little after we got here, and you're right.
In twenty twenty two he returned.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
That's when he actually played the show.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
All permits were cleared. He played a five sold out
night run at Croke parked over four hundred thousand ecstatic fans.
Speaker 4 (42:05):
So Garth got his way, but he had to wait
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
Both of those happened while we were here. The cancelations
I had to go back.
Speaker 5 (42:11):
I didn't realize the first one was in twenty fourteen.
I feel like that was way earlier, but yeah, he had.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
So twenty fourteen, And look, the internet's been wrong before,
but that feels like what it is is Garth's not
your favorite artist of all time, though.
Speaker 5 (42:24):
He was until about nineteen ninety three when Pearl Jam
came around, When pro Jam came around, I kind of
put the boots away for a little bit, brought the
doc Martin's out, and then became kind of a grunge kid.
But but I dude, Garth, there was just everything, like
I think to me, watching those TV specials changed everything
(42:44):
for me about because he was such a rock star.
Speaker 4 (42:47):
He was breaking guitars.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
It's also why he wasn't like warmly welcomed into country music.
People are like it, that's not country, that's not George Strait.
His live shows are not country. They told Garth Brooks
he wasn't huntry because of how he performed.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
Yeah, I mean, he was swinging through ropes.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Central Park is where I think about that was that
at every.
Speaker 5 (43:03):
Show that was I mean, gosh, I don't remember really exactly,
but because I remember the first one ever, it was
I think in Oklahoma. The first TV special was a
show in Oklahoma, was in a smaller arena, and then
he graduated to I think like Cowboys Stadium, and then
eventually he played Central.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
Park a million people, supposedly unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (43:22):
Hang tight, the Bobby Cast will be right back, and
we're back on the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
One of the things about that show that I remember
being mind blown was that Billy Joel played and he
played a Garth song, except I later learned it wasn't
a Garth song Shameless, it was Shameless, which was a
Billy Joel song. I was totally shaken. I was like,
that's cool. The guy from What's the Matter with Them?
Jack is playing with Garth Brooks's New York. I get it. Oh,
(44:00):
he's playing a Garth's song. What Garth did a Billy
Joel song. That's a cover. That's wild.
Speaker 4 (44:07):
He also did a cool cover of I may be
wrong and I maybe right.
Speaker 5 (44:15):
Yeah, he did it in one of those live shows
Oh got it, got It, which I found out later too,
was of Billy Joel's song too, so I think they
played that one together as well.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
A Garth cover that was good was to make You
Feel My Love?
Speaker 4 (44:27):
Yeah, dude, you know who's who wrote that?
Speaker 1 (44:29):
I'm Dylan Dumb. I'm not a stupid idiot, but I
feel like that was And Garth didn't do a lot
of covers at least so we knew, but I feel
like that one was awesome. That's Hope Floats.
Speaker 4 (44:40):
Right, Hope floats the movie.
Speaker 5 (44:41):
Yeah, Sandra Bullake, I think Garth did do a lot
of covers. I think he did mister Blue on the
on the second album, so I.
Speaker 1 (44:50):
Should rephrase singles that got famous?
Speaker 4 (44:53):
Oh right, right?
Speaker 1 (44:54):
Right now? Would Friends in Low Places be considered a cover?
Speaker 5 (44:58):
I don't think so, and I know why because somebody
else had released that, right, So he wrote it. Garth
did not write Friends of the Place.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
You sure?
Speaker 5 (45:06):
No, I am not one hundred percent sure, But I
don't think Garth wrote Friends in Low Places?
Speaker 4 (45:12):
Okay, God, I hope I'm right.
Speaker 1 (45:15):
You might be right Friends in Low Places writers? Now,
you're right, yes, but it's still a cover.
Speaker 4 (45:22):
Okay, Okay, So who wrote it? And he did release it?
Speaker 1 (45:25):
Right?
Speaker 3 (45:25):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (45:26):
Oh? Nut put it out?
Speaker 4 (45:28):
Chestnut?
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (45:29):
Oh, Chestnut did put it out.
Speaker 1 (45:31):
Yeah, okay, Chestnut put it out. Garth put it out,
Garth won.
Speaker 4 (45:37):
Wow. Did we ever talk to Chestnut about that?
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Dude? I don't know who we talked to it just
at this point we've talked, so we've talked to the Nut,
but I don't know about that. Dwayne Blackwell and Earl
Lee Budd. So yeah, that's what's up.
Speaker 4 (45:50):
I mean, that's really when everything changed right for Garth.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
Friends in Low Place, I mean, that's his biggest song
wasn't my number one because it's me, but that was
my number one.
Speaker 3 (45:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (45:59):
What's a cover that I think I got confused about
was maybe boot Scooting Boogie.
Speaker 4 (46:09):
Boots Scoot and Boogie, I think so. So that wasn't
written by Brooks and Dunn.
Speaker 1 (46:15):
It was written by Ronnie Dunn and Sleep at the
Will recorded it first. No way, I'm almost positive it
to that song. Let me make sure, oh Ray Benson, Yeah,
Boots Scooting Boogie. Let's see.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
It was.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
Written and performed Ronnie Done before he ever teamed up
with Kicks. The first recording was Asleep at the Will
nineteen ninety album Keep Yeah. I got those two mixed up.
That's on me. Hey, my bad on that.
Speaker 5 (46:40):
Because it's a big It was a I mean, the
biggest song for Big Brooks and Dune.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
But Garth did it still would be a cover if
Chestnut did it first. But is he covering chest Nutter?
Is he just doing it around the same time? Yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
I feel like they released it around the same time,
but at.
Speaker 6 (46:53):
Least in nineteen ninety say again, both released in nineteen ninety,
So I guess that's not a cover.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
That's just them putting the same song out at the
same time.
Speaker 5 (47:00):
So so is it on an album for Mark Chestnut,
because that's I mean, how I heard it before, right,
I don't remember.
Speaker 6 (47:08):
But there was another artist who released it in nineteen
eighty nine awesome, So maybe Wayne Chamberlain.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
Put it out. For three people have released Garth Brooks, well,
not Garth and Chestnut, and David Lee Chamberlain. That's his name,
David Lee Chamberlain. It was, yeah, David Wayne Chamberlain.
Speaker 5 (47:27):
Wayne Chamberlain, Alvickfieza, David Lee Murphy, David Wayne Chamberlain.
Speaker 1 (47:32):
All three of them released that song.
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Well, I mean, I.
Speaker 5 (47:33):
Should tell you really how much an artist you know,
can influence a song, because you know, they all released
it had their own little touch to it. But obviously
Garth's is the one that popped, same with Brooks and Dunn.
Speaker 6 (47:46):
The other song is My Maria, was originally released by
different artists back in the seventies.
Speaker 1 (47:51):
So that was a straight cover. They didn't write that.
I knew that Ronnie had written. Luckily I was right.
Bootschoot and Bogie as a songwriter Asleep with the Will
did it, and then they redid it obviously. Mark Chestnutt
released his own cover of Friends in Low Places on
his platinum selling nineteen ninety major label debut Too Cold
at Home.
Speaker 5 (48:09):
That's what it says that he covered it. Okay, Garth
would I had to be a cover to the absolutely wow,
there we go, man, poor Nutt.
Speaker 4 (48:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:18):
He had a pretty good career.
Speaker 4 (48:19):
Man, he really did. But gosh, I mean, dude, not
a Garth career is.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
Like, it would be crazy if you put out a
song and someone else puts out the same song and
their song it freaking explodes. Yeah, but it also could
have been the labels, like we'll put this out as
a single and his didn't. Right, you know, it could
have been that. But like chessnut had brother.
Speaker 4 (48:36):
Jukebox going through the Big d Dome in Dallas.
Speaker 1 (48:40):
It's a little too late to do the riot thing
now he even did. I don't want to miss a thing.
Speaker 4 (48:45):
Oh yeah, I remember that he did cover that.
Speaker 1 (48:48):
Well, thank you for this Garth back in time.
Speaker 4 (48:50):
I love Garth. I can talk about him for hours.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
I'll look back at Garth and thank you everybody for listening.
I do have another top ten coming up next week
of I don't want to spoil it yet. It's a
good one though, one of.
Speaker 4 (49:00):
Our favorite artists.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
No, oh, okay, all right, I don't want to say
too much. All right, it's not really what you're thinking.
Speaker 4 (49:10):
Okay, I'll wait.
Speaker 1 (49:12):
But I learned a lot while researching it.
Speaker 5 (49:16):
What was your Can you tell me what your last
number ten was on Garth Brooks.
Speaker 1 (49:22):
I don't have a list. Okay, it looks like maybe Rodeo.
Rodeo is so good. Dude, I don't know. I have
a blacked out list. And I know everybody that just
heard this heard me say it. We recorded this after.
Speaker 4 (49:36):
I just don't know. What do you mean? You have
a blackout list? So like once you said it, you
blacked it out.
Speaker 1 (49:41):
No, I have Well that would be like what I do.
I have a graphic of and I only listed at
eight and three, so people would be curious about the
rest that I posted.
Speaker 4 (49:50):
Got it? Got it? So the last one looks short?
Speaker 1 (49:53):
Yeah, but I don't know if we actually did the
real length of the songs. Let me look at the
files real quick. Hold on, let me have right here,
have right here Rodeo would would number ten? Rodeo?
Speaker 4 (50:04):
Okay, all right, it fits there. It's a jam. But
I mean there are so many good ones.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
Everybody knows because they listened to this. A rodeo was
at ten. Two of a kind of working on a
full house was at nine. That's so good, dude, standing
out to the fire eight, perfect under Rolls at seven,
Little Love for You that's a little low that summer
at six, creepy song.
Speaker 4 (50:26):
It's so good. That's what I said too.
Speaker 1 (50:27):
Yeah, Unanswered Prayers at five, Yes, I love that one.
Friends of Low Places at four, okay, friends of Low Places.
But the David Lee Wilson version.
Speaker 4 (50:37):
Yeah, yeah. My regard was.
Speaker 1 (50:40):
The dance at three, the River at two, and then
number one and wow, what did you leave out? I
left out? Well, first of all, talked about I don't
know what aladigo was. Always I was letting go a laddio.
Speaker 4 (50:51):
I still don't know what it is.
Speaker 1 (50:53):
Yeah, okay, yeah, what did I leave out?
Speaker 4 (50:59):
Man? You know which one? Calling baton rouge? You left
that out?
Speaker 1 (51:03):
I still would though. Really I pulled up every Garth
song ever going through this, and there were some hard,
hard decisions.
Speaker 4 (51:10):
Speaking of I think that one's a cover as well.
Speaker 1 (51:12):
It is a cover, yeah, right, yep, sure is.
Speaker 4 (51:14):
And then what's the one, dude? The one I love
is the uh.
Speaker 1 (51:18):
I left out to make it for my love. It's
a cover, but.
Speaker 4 (51:21):
Yeah, what's the six o'clock on Mama's get sings really fast?
I love that one?
Speaker 1 (51:31):
What is that? I just to know all the words.
Speaker 4 (51:32):
I ain't going down til the sun comes up.
Speaker 1 (51:34):
Yeah, that's a good one, too uh so much too young?
Speaker 4 (51:39):
I love that one.
Speaker 1 (51:39):
I didn't do that one. I didn't do shameless.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
Shameless is good.
Speaker 1 (51:42):
I didn't do what.
Speaker 4 (51:44):
Chese doing, dude, trying to put that one in.
Speaker 1 (51:47):
I didn't do stuff like two pina kiladas it's okay,
or Papa Mama, Papa love Mama, Gosh, dude. And then
songs that didn't make it but are good, like it's
the American.
Speaker 4 (52:00):
Tong Bar Association. Did you know what? It's so tough,
like you just can't go back? And I mean, where
are those songs?
Speaker 1 (52:07):
Yeah, they're on Amazon. I mean the only place do.
Speaker 4 (52:11):
I have Amazon? I don't know. I don't think I
have music.
Speaker 1 (52:14):
I can't hear it. N I got Prime. If you
have Prime, maybe you do, Okay, I'm an ihet radio.
It's the same, all right, Thank you everybody for listening.
Thanks for listening to the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 3 (52:24):
Share this episode with a friend because they don't pay
to advertise us.
Hey, everybody, Bobby here, we're going to do the top
ten greatest Garth Brooks songs of all time. And you
might think, are you even Bobby, are you Garth Brooks.
I'm not. It's me.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
It's not Garth Brooks. I'm just wearing the hack because
we're talking about Garth Brooks. So the top ten greatest
Garth Brooks songs of all time, from my opinion, the
greatest country music artist of all time.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Here we go at number ten, Rodeo. How hard does
that first note hit in Rodeo? The reason I put
Rodeo on the list is one, it's an awesome song,
but two, I didn't know what a laddigo was. As
a matter of fact, in the lyrics of Garth Brooks Rodeo,
it's boots and chaps, it's cowboy hats, it's spurs and laddigo.
(00:59):
I grew up its spurs and let it go. Didn't
even know ladigo was a thing until I got older.
For those wondering at home, what ladigo is, It's a long,
heavy leather strap used on a western saddle, used a
tighten and secure and cinch around the horse's belly. So
(01:22):
the next time you sing that song and someone sings
and let it go. It's like ladigo, and then explain
to them that it's actually part of what you put
on a horse in a saddle. So number ten is rodeo. Man,
what a jam that was At number nine. I want
(01:43):
to take you back to sixth grade for me at
Mountain Pine High School. Now, we had this competition and
it was basically a lip sync battle type competition. It
was called Putting on the Hits, and you get up
and you lip sync a song and there were like
ten competitors from all ages and whomever lip synced the
song the best won the competition. And me, I was
(02:05):
a big Race Stevens fan, and there was a song
by Ray Stevens called The Streak and it went like this,
Oh yes, they called him the Streak, and it was
about a streaker. It literally was about a streaker, and
to me it was hilarious. I love Ray Stevens. Ray
s Evens and Adam Sandler are two of the reasons
that I got into comedy music later in my life,
(02:27):
and so I do The Streak. And there was a
kid that I knew his family. He was in like
second grade, and he put on this this suit, like
a body suit that was tan, and so I'm singing
like Ray Stevens and he's like a news reporter. He's like, hey,
I'm in the say and it's the streak and he goes,
oh yes. And then and then the kid comes running
(02:49):
out in like a full bodysuit. Crowd went crazy. Like
I'm talking about, we were set to dominate putting on
the hits. There was only one act left to go
after us. That act was Christie and Aubrey. They were
in my class. They were probably the two most popular
(03:11):
girls in school. What song did they do? Two of
a Kind and working on a Full House? Now, one
of the girls played Garth, who was like the husband. Oh,
she's my little uber, I'm a wilhar okay, and the
other one played the wife and they had this house
set behind them kind of background. It was solid all
(03:32):
the way through. But they weren't going to beat the streak.
Like I had a kid that I knew in a
full body suit running out it. We were easily going
to be number one in that lip sync contest. Near
the end of the song two of a Kind Working
on a Full House, Aubrey, who was playing the wife smiles.
(03:59):
She had blacked out her two front teeth. It got
a bigger laugh than the kid that was wearing the
streak outfit. They won. We finished second. Garth Brooks song
Two of a Kind Working on a Full House is
one of my favorite Garth Brooks songs, but I will
only put it at nine because it ripped a victory
(04:20):
from me in the sixth grade putting on the Hits challenge.
But it is my number nine song in the Greatest
Garth Brooks Songs of All Time. At number eight. I
remember watching this video. It came on CMT and it
was one of the videos I feel that made me
feel first. The only other one that I would put
(04:43):
in front of this is Tim McGraw Don't Take the Girl.
I watched that video and I was like, I don't
even know what planet I'm living on, Like I'm emotional
watching this whole situation. Johnny and his dad's taking a
vision that's nothing. Wait till Johnny gets held at like gunpoint,
knife gets robbed, Wait till Johnny loses his Why that
video wrecked me? The other video that made me feel
(05:05):
is my number eight Garth Brooks song Standing Outside the
Fire If you have not watched that video and you
didn't feel I don't believe you have feelings standing outside
the Fire Now, this song is all about living life
to the fullest. The video was a kid with down
syndrome running and falling and training and told he couldn't
(05:28):
do it, and then it is an uplifting, inspiring video
that makes you feel only second all time to Don't
Take the Girl. When you're a kid growing up Mountain Pine,
Arkansas watching on CMT my number eight song from Garth
Brooks is Standing Outside the Fire at number seven on
my list, and I always wondered if they actually stole
(05:51):
this from a night of bad weather. Then yeah, thunder Rolls.
I would listen to that on tape and I would
think about that night when they obviously took a tape
recorder out and just recorded the sky. I was a moron.
I didn't know how music worked. I didn't know about
(06:12):
sound effects. But I remember hearing the thunder and going, man,
that song's crazy. He's dirty in the morning, not a
sould inside, and I was like, man, it's dark and
it's got thunder and it's like when I heard the
secret verse for the first time on the double live album.
After I had already sang the song ten million times
(06:32):
and I knew how the story ended with the original
Thunder I heard that secret verse, and now I was like,
I don't even know what my life has been. It's
all been a fraud until I knew the last verse
of this song. So the last verse of the thunder
Rolls by Garth Brooks. If you don't know, it's dark.
It's famously controversial. It is not on the studio album
(06:56):
spoiler alert. It features a wife grabbing a pistol. She
goes to the dresser drawer, she grabs a pistol, and
she shoots her cheating husband. It's from nineteen ninety eight's
double live album. He'll only play it live, and man,
when he does in concert, and I've seen him do it,
the place freaking erupts because you're only going to hear
that on the live album or Garth performing live. Thunder
(07:18):
rolls at number seven on the Greatest Garth Brooks Songs
of All Time at number six. The year was nineteen
ninety two. I was just a kid, but it was
my first experience in having pretty much a full time
job through the summer. It was the first year that
(07:39):
I'd ever been on a roofing team group. So now,
since I was a kid, I really wasn't able to
actually get up and do the roofing. I would do
that later in my life. But when you're twelve years old,
you're on the cleanup crew, and that is the suckiest
part of the job because what would happen is you
(08:01):
wake up to butt crack it on, you drive in,
you wait for the roofers to go up on the
roof with the shovels and tear off the old roof
and you're just sitting down there like this. They throw
the roof, the shingles, all the garbage, all the nails,
it's on the ground. It surrounds the house, and it
is up to you to actually pick up every even
(08:22):
the nails. You gotta pick up everything, and you gotta
take it to the dump and the trailer, and then
you've got to unload the trailer same thing, all of
that garbage. It was the worst job of all the
jobs that I had. Now later in life I would
actually get to roof houses, a very difficult job, but
being on the clean up crew of roofing houses every
(08:42):
morning for three months total thumbs down. That being said,
in that year of nineteen ninety two, as I was
going to roof well clean up roof houses, that summer
seemed to play on the radio every freaking morning on
the way to work and on the way home. That
(09:03):
summer is a wild song because supposedly it's kind of true.
Now that summer is about a teenage boy so far
from home. Now, there was this lonely widow woman. She
was hell bent to make it on her own. Now
she had lost her husband. All of a sudden, he's
hooking up with the widowed woman. My favorite part of
(09:23):
it is he's a teenage boy, right, and he's hooking
up with this widowed woman who had hands of leather,
and then I believe they turned to velvet all of
a sudden when they started making sweet love. So you
got this teenage boy making love to this widowed woman.
And I would always get a little chuckle when I
got older at the line she had the need to
(09:44):
feel the thunder. That's a lot of praise for thyself,
saying that you possessed the thunder, that you, as a
teenage boy, are giving this widow woman the thunder. High
praise for yourself go and your love making, and so
(10:04):
he thundered her all summer long. And it's my number
six song in the Greatest Garth Brooks Songs of All Time,
and number five there was a song that I used
to justify over and over me not getting what I
(10:27):
wanted in life. I'd pray for ice cream. I'd pray
that i'd hit a home run every baseball game. I'd
pray for a girlfriend, and rarely would any of those
things happen. Around the time this song came out, and
I would think, I'm praying for all this stuff, why
is it not happening? But then unanswered Prayers came out,
(10:48):
and then I thought to myself, maybe it's not happening
because it's not supposed to happen, and maybe some of
God's greatest gifts actually are unanswered prayers. And then you
hear the song and it's like it's a high school
football game, and like he used to like dream to
be with her, and then all of a sudden, but
(11:10):
he's got the real one now, his wife. But he
used to pray to always be with her. Now he's like,
sometimes I thank God for unanswer prayers because I used
to pray for that whole bag over there. But now
I got the good one. So that's what that song
did for me. When I didn't hit a home run
and I would pray before the game, Please Lord, let
me hit a home run. Maybe I went one for
(11:30):
four with three strikeouts. Please Lord, let me hit a
home run, and I wouldn't. Please Little let me get
a girl to like me, and they wouldn't. I'd go
to myself. Maybe God's greatest skip his unanswered prayers here,
you know what. That's how I got through life until
about twenty five or so. Anyway, good song, great song.
It's my number five song all time in Garth Brooks's
(11:53):
greatest songs.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Hang tight, the Bobby Cast will be right back, and
we're back on the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now we're getting to four, and this is where it
gets to be a bit tough because these are the
greatest of the great And I think if you just
were to ask, like normal folks who were casuals in
country music, hey, what's the greatest Garth song? I think
they would say friends in Low Places. Now I've only
(12:32):
got it at number four because you know why, I'm
not a freaking casual. That's why now. It is the
song that I think most people know. It is a
song that's played most of probably fraternity parties. It is
the song that probably most people are covering if they're
playing country bars down on Broadway, like it's that Garth
brook song. It is ubiquitous where there is country music.
Everywhere there's country music. There's friends in low places. That
(12:57):
being said, I want to tell you my favorite Garth
Brooks story about this song. It's few years ago, maybe
like eight or nine at this point, and I had
talked to Garth a few times in the week leading
up to a show that I do at the Ryman
(13:17):
Auditorium in Nashville every single year for charity, and Garth
had called into my show and he said, hey, he's
putting out some music. And he was like, Hey, any
money that I make this week on this album, I'm
going to donate it to the charity that you're working for.
And I was like, dang, that's awesome, because Saint Jude
Children's Hospital that I've worked with for a long time
and we have luckily been able to raise a lot
(13:38):
of money. And I thought, dang, Garth are going to
donate any money he makes off his new album for
a whole week, like is that even true? First of all,
and then secondly like how do I do the accounting
on that?
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Like I don't.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I don't have books, remember thinking that, like open the books,
let me see the books, Garth. And so that was
on like a Tuesday. Our show was a couple of
days later. I didn't hear from Garth at all. Garth.
I thought Garth was ghost to me. Wanted the books, Garth,
Hey just call me back, Garth. Nothing was happening. And
(14:11):
then I thought, maybe he'll show up to the show
because it was like my full band. We had other
artists like jumping in doing a couple songs here, doing
a song there, and again it was all for Saint Jude.
All the tickets went to Saint Jude. What an amazing
night it was. We're probably eight tenths of the way
through the show and someone says in my ear, Hey,
did you know Garth Brooks is here? Show me the books. Garth.
(14:35):
That's what I thought, not really, but I thought, Dang,
I wonder if he's here to like watch He's heard,
he's heard about how good the band is. And I
was like, where is he in the crowd. He goes, no,
he's backstage and he wants to come out and present
a check, and I was like, oh, he really is
doing this, And so he's got one of them big
(14:55):
checks he cannot cash. By the way, it's just a token,
it's not really so then you can take to the
bank and he walks it out and just a couple
of million dollars from Garth Brooks to Saint Jude Children's
Research Hospital. And I'm blown away because that was our
entire goal. I didn't get paid for doing the show,
(15:17):
put the whole thing together out of the goodness in
my heart and for something much greater than me, kids
with cancer. Garth did not have to donate the money
from his new music that he was putting out. I
didn't even ask him about it. He just volunteered it.
He didn't have to show up, he didn't have to
give me all of it, he didn't have to show
me the books. And he shows up with a check
for a couple million dollars and he's like, I forgot
(15:38):
about you, but I got this check and he brings
it out. Now I've got a really strong band, and
I also know that Garth is the ultimate performer. So
I look over at Brandon Rey, or lead guitarist at
the time, and I say, hey, just play the intro,
and he does Doom Doom, Doom, Friends in Low Places,
(16:01):
and Garth does this thing where he's like he looks
around and he's not dressed totally as Garth. He's got
on like a leather jacket. But Garth is a performer.
And also we had him like he just donated two
(16:22):
million dollars. He's on stage at the Ryman. We're playing
probably his most popular song, He's not Gonna leave his hanging.
Brandon hits it boomom, Garth looks around, walks up to
the microphone, blame it all, and the crowd melts the
walls of the Ryman. All of us in the band
(16:44):
were like, oh my god. We didn't even rehearse the
song because it was never really an idea that Garth
Brooks was just gonna do a little pop in. And
then once we had him doing the pop in, we'd
play a song. We had just played that song so
many times just doing a cover at our show is
that we knew the song. I have a really great picture.
It's one of my favorite pictures ever It is the
(17:06):
microphone in the middle, Garth standing here singing into it,
me holding my guitar standing here. We're singing into the
same microphone, and we're just kind of doing the cool
lead sing. It's really cool. But not only did Garth
Brooks donate millions of dollars that night, we sang Friends
in Low Places together. Epic and it's my number four
(17:28):
all time Garth Brooks song and number three. When I
think of great piano fade outs, November Rain comes to
mind from Guns and Roses. It was never really that
much of a g n R fan, but I really
liked that video. And that video I think was two
(17:48):
days long if I remember correctly, it literally was like
forty seven hours, and it was at a church and
Slash playing and there's a big piano and some wedding
and all this is happening and big piano lead in,
big piano out. That was a legitimate piano song with
a great piano fade. However, my number three song from
(18:11):
Garth Brooks, I feel, has an even more epic piano
fade out. Also, it might be the greatest junior high
dance song ever. It probably fights with Casey and Jojo
Baby Baby, Baby, Baby, baby, baby Baby All my Life.
Also a great piano song to Noo Dun Dune Dune.
(18:31):
When that song played Junior High Dances, you're like, ah, man,
this is like my one chance to dance with somebody,
And so you go out in the middle, you sheepishly
walk around, you want to dance. It was Casey and Jojo.
It was Garth Brooks the Dance. I thought that was
a very romantic song until later in life I thought
(18:53):
it was about really just dancing. And obviously now you
realize it's very much the sad song about you know,
last run with someone loved the song needed it in
Junior High, greatest piano fade out song of all time,
and the story of that song's pretty amazing. So there's
a place in town called the Bluebird Cafe. I've been
(19:14):
lucky to have played a bunch of times, and the
show Nashville made it really famous to people who aren't
in town and aren't part of the songwriter community here.
And it's very small. It's way smaller than you think
it is. It's also the beauty.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Of the place.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
And so you're in this room and they're serving a
little bit of food and they put like four chairs
in the middle of the room and there's four microphones
and you're playing in a circle and sitting on the
outside of you or all the people. I mean, you're
talking about sixty to seventy people, that's it, sitting all
over the room. Garth Brooks heard Tony Ratta playing that
(19:52):
song the Dance at the Bluebird Cafe. So Garth Brooks
at the time was very much a struggling newcomer guy
coming to town trying to make it, having not a
lot of success. When heard him play that song, afterword,
everybody just kind of gets up and you can just
talk and mingle with the people that were playing there.
And Garth Brooks told him that if he ever got
(20:12):
a record deal, he was going to record that song.
And Garth Brooks kept his freaking word and he recorded
that song on his self titled debut album. And that
song's awesome for junior high kids, for adults love country music,
and for people that love piano fade outs. That's a
(20:32):
right at number three, it's the dance at number two.
This is basically the ted Talk of Garth Brooks songs.
This is the song that I don't know we're all
going through something. Everybody you see is going through something.
You've heard that right. Everybody you see needs to hear
this song at some point in their day or at
least their week, because this song is about life moving forward.
(20:58):
This song's about your dreams. The song's about safety. The
point of this song is if you never start, you
never actually have a chance to live. If you never
launch your boat and you never really get on the river,
you never have a chance to get down the river.
(21:21):
The boat is your dream. The banks are safety. It's
great the bank's there, but you don't want to always
roll back to the bank. And the whole point is
put your boat in the water. You know, a dream
is like a vessel, and you will sail that vessel
till the river runs freakin dry. The number two greatest
(21:43):
Garth Brooks song of all time is again the Ted
Talk the Tony Robbins of Garth Brooks songs the River,
And now it's time for the number one greatest Garth
Brooks of all time. I had a friend when I
was in fifth grade at Lake Hamilton School. I bounced
(22:06):
around a lot whenever I was growing up, moving from
trailer park to apartment to trailer park to apartment, and
I had to go to a lot of new schools,
especially early in my life. It's tough when you're a
kid and you're bouncing in new schools, especially early, because
it's constantly being reintroduced to other new kids, and kids
(22:26):
just generally aren't that nice then all like new kids
coming to school. It did teach me a skill set
that I'm glad that I have. But when I was
bouncing around and I go to Lake Hamilton, which was
the largest school that I ever went to, I did
not have a lot of friends and I was only
there for a very limited time. There was one friend
(22:49):
that I made at Lake Hamilton School, and he lived
pretty close and it was the only kid that I
would ever go and spend the night with. Now, I
wasn't someone that also liked to leave home, and so
wasn't someone who would go and spend the night with people,
mostly because I just didn't have a lot of friends.
But this one friend I felt close enough that I
(23:10):
would go to his house and I remember his dad
was like a delivery driver for vending machines and he
always had unlimited chips, just boxes of unlimited chips you
named the chip he had the small bags in them
at his house. I thought that was the coolest thing.
He had unlimited, seemingly wrestling magazines and wrestling vhs tapes
of all the pay per views back in the day, Halloween, Havoc, Starcade,
(23:34):
all the Wrestlemannia Is. Oh, that was the greatest thing ever.
And not only that, he had a double decker at
home CD player. Now occasionally you see a CD player
in somebody's car, but CDs were still pretty new at
the time. For him to have a double decker at
home CD player with a stereo system where we could
(23:56):
read wrestling magazines and listen to music, I thought it
was a cool thing I'd ever seen in my entire life.
And he had a CD that I just wanted to
play over and over and over again. And that CD
was Garth Brooks self titled first album, Garth Brooks, and
(24:18):
I would put it on and I would play it,
and then it stopped being where I would just play
the whole album. It started to be where I would
play my favorite song over and over again, which is
my number one song here. And when I would play
this song, I would think that's so deep. What if
tomorrow doesn't come? Does my grandma know I love her?
(24:40):
That's what I would think. Obviously I didn't have a
girlfriend and really wouldn't have one for a long time.
But I thought about that, Well, my grandma know I
love her up to it, so I'd go home after
it's been like, but Grandma, I love you. But Garth Brooks,
if tomorrow never comes, will she know how much I
love her? Garth Brooks Number one song of all time.
(25:03):
Also Garth Brook's first ever number one song, There you
have It, Folks, Top ten Garth Brooks Songs of all Time,
Honorable mention much too young to fill this blank old
(25:25):
I did not put that on the list. That was
actually Garth's first single. It did not go number one
because it had the D word in it. Probably would have,
but there were some program directors at radio stations across
the country that did not want to play that song
because it had the D word in it, So that
song did not go number one. His second single, If
Tomorrow never comes, his first number one. If Tomorrow never
(25:47):
comes my number one. If tomorrow never comes, I'll leave
you with this Garth Brooks story. I've told it a
few times recently. A few years ago, April Fol's Day,
I get a call from somebody to be Garth Brooks
from a number that I don't know. At this point
in my life. I know Garth Brooks a little bit.
I have his number on my phone. No, I'm well
(26:07):
enough to text him occasionally. So this number that was
calling me was a new number. It was not Garth Brooks.
And it was April Fool's Day. And the voice comes
on and says, hey, can you open up a show
for me? And I'm like, we'll get Garth Brooks. And
I was on the air. I did not think it
was Garth Brooks. So I told Fate Garth Brooks, Hey,
I'm doing the radio show right now. Can I call
(26:28):
you back in a couple hours. I'll be done now.
Fate Garth Brooks was very nice and he was like, yeah, sure,
call me back later in the day. So I go
home and get my wife say, hey, I'm gonna put
this on speaker. Somebody's trying to prank me. Record this
because I want to have evidence of me knowing that
I'm getting pranked. And so she's recording it and I
called fake Garth Brooks up on a number that I
(26:50):
didn't know because I had real Garth Brooks's number on
my phone, so fate Garth Brooks answer is like hey Bobby,
and I'm like hey Garth. I say, hey, sorry about
that earlier. What was you like? What can I do
for you? And he said, I think it'd be awesome.
We're going to play Razorback Stadium in Arkansas. We expect
(27:11):
at least one hundred thousand people to be there, and
I want you to come out and open up the show.
That same band that he came and performed with at
the Rhyman. He wanted that same band to come and
open for him, supposedly, and I'm like, yeah, man, no problem,
love to do it. And I'm pretty short about it
(27:32):
because I'm just like, I'm not getting fooled by this.
And my wife goes, I think that's him really? And
then I say is this really Garth Brooks? And he
goes yeah. I said, you know it's April Fol's Day, right.
He goes, oh, I didn't even think about that. I said, so,
I've never thought this was really Garth Brooks. Can I
(27:52):
text your old number? And he goes yeah, sure, So
I text the old number and he goes, yeah, I
just got it, and I was like, oh my god,
it's Garth Brooks. The whole time, I never thought it
was Garth Brooks. Like I'm telling you, I was like
disregarding the things he was saying because I didn't want
to to seem like I was getting April Folds pranked.
And so I said, yes, I would love to do
that smash cut day of the show. It's a couple
(28:13):
months later, Garth is doing these football stadiums. It's at
my favorite place on Earth, Razorback Football Stadium. And I
didn't know if we were going on at first, at
like the five thirty PM slot. I know when it was,
but we were doing a sound check. And it's crazy
to do a sound check in a stadium because you're
nippy stadium and it feels weird and the sounds weird,
(28:34):
and it's massive. Like I've played in arenas, I've played
in theaters, I've never played in a football stadium. And
I'm talking the whole stadium too, not where you block
off a backside of it and you play the whole thing.
And so we're doing soundcheck and Garth Brooks and Trisha
Yearwood they come out to soundcheck and talk to them
for a few minutes, and Garth says, hey, if you
(28:56):
guys are feeling it, because they gave us twenty five
minutes to play, which is a long time. He said,
if you're feeling it, just keep playing longer, like, I
don't care, I'm going to play all night too. And
I said, wow, that's crazy. I said, we're not going
to do that because no, but if you're feeling it,
And then Garth walks off, and Tricia, who I love, goes, yeah,
I wouldn't feel it too much fout you and I
was like, yeah, I don't worry. We're not going to
(29:17):
go over. And so I still really don't know where
we are in the slot. And he says, hey, you're
going to go on right before I do. And so
there were a few acts overall in the first act played,
second act played, and then we were about to go on,
and Guard's like, don't go out yet. I want it
to be fully dark before you go out, so you
can experience it under the lights, he said, And also
(29:40):
when you go out, use the whole stage. Now, whenever
you perform in something like a football stadium, it's all
the way around, so you've got to run all the
way around to make sure that you're kind of looking
in everyone's direction. I think the thing that happens a
lot of the time, if not most of the time,
is that an opening act or a support act does
(30:01):
not get the whole stage. The whole stage is usually
just for whomever the main performer is, and the very
opening act has a very small spot. The mid act
has a slightly bigger spot, but you don't get access
to the whole stage. It's the main guys stage. Garth
was like, use the whole stage, run all around, make
sure everybody feels seen, and so that's what we did.
(30:22):
We played for exactly twenty five minutes. We did a
hog cough with over one hundred and ten thousand people,
and then we stayed and watched Garth show. And it
was really one of the cooler moments ever to get
to play my favorite place with my favorite country artist
at night, and it really beat him and not an
(30:45):
April Fools Garth. I just kept waiting though before we
went on for him to come out and go April Fools.
We got you out here, You're not performing, are you crazy?
So there you go. That's my Garth Brooks Top ten list.
Rodeo at ten, two of a kind of working on
a full house at nine, standing outside the Fire at eight,
thunder Rolls at seven, that Summer at six, Unanswered Prayers
(31:08):
at five, Friends in Low Places at four, the Dance
at three, the River at two, and if tomorrow never comes,
the number one greatest Garth Brooks song of all time.
And with that, I say let it go.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
The Bobby Cast will be right back. Welcome back to
the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Okay, So if you're listening to this, we did not
put this part on Netflix. That first part was on Netflix,
but I wanted to bring Eddie in for a second.
I did my top ten all time Garth Brooks songs.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
Wow, I know that's tough.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
I know, and then I have some thoughts about what
I left off. I still feel good about it. But
what's your number one Garth Brooks song of all time?
Speaker 5 (32:02):
Gosh, dude, I would have to say the River would
probably have to be my favorite Garth Brooks song. Gosh,
there's so many though, there's so many. But I remember
calling radio stations to play the live version of the
River and they'd be like, are you crazy, Like we
don't have live versions and we don't play that on
(32:23):
the radio. But I love the River so much.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
I'm pretty sure because I don't have my notes in
front of me, that the River was probably number two
on my list.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
Okay, that's good, or maybe four.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
It's one of those two. It's in the top, isn't
top five?
Speaker 4 (32:34):
I mean, I know you're number one if Tomorrow Never Comes?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Yeah? Yeah, how do you feel about that being my
number one?
Speaker 4 (32:41):
I love it? I mean If Tomorrow Never Comes is
so good?
Speaker 1 (32:44):
And it was on the first record. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
And when he plays that live and he kind of
lets you sing it, I mean that is it that one?
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Or yeah?
Speaker 1 (32:51):
He does well. He does all of them, but the
one that we're thinking about specifically, he did If Tomorrow
Never Comes with nothing.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
We saw him in Little Rock and he like started
just him and the guitar and then just kind of
let us all sing it.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
He didn't even play guitar anymore. He just beat on
his chest for the rhythm.
Speaker 4 (33:05):
He even took his hat off. Like how beautiful is this?
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Classic? Guard? Classic? So I want to talk about Garth
music videos? Ooh great, because this is not something I
jumped into I'd mentioned a couple of songs that I
felt strongly about the music videos, But what do you
think is the best Garth Brooks video of all time?
Speaker 4 (33:22):
Thunder Rolls, Go Ahead the thunder Rolls.
Speaker 5 (33:24):
The fact that like he turned that song into a
mini movie, you know, it was really cool. The imagery
of the thunder Rolls is already so good in the song.
It was cool to see everything happening, you know, at
three thirty in the morning, when I remember the rain
drops on the windshield literally, you know, and the guy's
trying to look through the windshield while the wifers are
(33:45):
trying to wipe the water off, and then you know,
like it gets you know, the story. Then he gets
the house and everything goes down. But to me, that
was so cool. But I remember I bought a V eight. Dude,
I am number one Garth Brooks fan. I was in
the fan club. I had all this merch. I used
to buy the brush Proper shirts, you know, the stuff
(34:05):
from his album The Mobetas.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
You're saying words that I don't know, but I can
picture what Garth was wearing.
Speaker 5 (34:11):
Mobeta was the brand, and I did research when internet
wasn't even a thing. Of like, what are these shirts
that he's wearing in these album covers, you know, the
rope and the wind one with the blue and black
stripes that go down the chase, the one with the
white and the black checkered, you know, and then the
red and the black check.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
I can picture all of them. I just didn't know
that's what they're.
Speaker 5 (34:31):
Calling all those The brand was Mobeta, so anyway, but
I remember I ordered somewhere either the website or the
catalog that I got from the fan club of a
video of all of those videos in it, the dance
thunder Rolls. I feel like it had maybe a couple
more I don't remember. And there's an interview of him
(34:52):
on there talking about how he hated music videos because,
as like someone who sang these songs, he wanted the
listener to interpret, to interpret these songs however they wanted
to interpret it. And he felt like when he did
a music video, it told the listener, Hey, this is
what the song's about, and then there's no change in it,
right like, once you see the video, that's what it is.
(35:14):
And he hated that about it, but I guess the
label made him do videos.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Also. You could do a video just playing the music. Yeah,
and not really do a story, you know, because I
do understand his point.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
But that wasn't really his especially the style for all
those early videos like the Dance.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
Do you remember that video?
Speaker 5 (35:34):
No, they were all as a montage of all of
these people that have done something special in the world,
that have that died early.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
Oh so Lane Frost was in the video, Keith Whitley
was in the video. John F.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
Kennedy was in the video, like Martin Luther King was
in the video. Like it was just a huge montage
with those kind of people. So when I thought the
song was really really just about a dance, I knows
about life.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
I don't remember that video. Yeah. My favorite video and
I talked about it in the episode was standing outside
the Fire.
Speaker 5 (36:05):
Oh that was That was the the kid with down
syndrome and does he fall at the fall?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Well, but he keeps going, yes, he's got all the blood, dude.
I totally remember that one. That one hits hard. Yes, uh,
the one that I didn't only much care for the song,
but the video is kind of embedded in my brain
as the Red Strokes.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
What was the video? Oh, I was at the Red
Paint means splattered everywhere.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Yeah, it's a white room. He's wearing a white tuxedo,
and then the white piano. As the song clays, the
red paint begins to violently splatter across the Roomy.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
Dude, I do remember that.
Speaker 5 (36:38):
I also to remember standing outside, no, not staying outside
the fire, which is the the one that he didn't
sing at the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
We Shall be Free, We Shall be Free. He wanted
that video to air before the super Bowl. You know
it did happen in the super Bowl?
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Is that what happened?
Speaker 1 (36:51):
So the story is, and Mike, I'm pretty sure I'm
right about this. If I'm not, please correct me. At
the end, Garth was supposed to sing the national anthem
for the Super Bowl, and right before he's like, I
want you to show the video for we Shall be Free,
and they're like, no, we can't. It's the super Bowl.
It goes I'm not going to sing force them to
play the video if we Shall be Free before the
(37:12):
super Bowl. It got so close to them just going
screw it. They went to John bon Jovie, who was
in the crowd, and said, will you be able to
come sing the national anthem? If Garth Brooks doesn't sing
the national anthem as a backup, and in the end
they showed the video do we Shall Be Free? It
was a great video.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
What what a stalemate?
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Like?
Speaker 5 (37:31):
What like a what do you call that when you're
just kind of like taking it all the way down
to the last minute?
Speaker 1 (37:38):
I stand off, stand off balls. But that one was
like natural disasters and when you talk about because I
didn't remember the dance, but for we Shall be Free,
it was like cultural triumphs natural disasters I think were
the famous people well I remember that it was Michael
(37:58):
Jordan in that video was we Shall be Free? I'm
gonna Mike is my story right though it's correct.
Speaker 6 (38:03):
Happened in nineteen ninety three, and they refer to it
as a forty five minute standoff.
Speaker 4 (38:07):
That's what it is, a standoff. And Garth won that
versus the Super.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Bowl versus a freaking Zuper Bowl.
Speaker 4 (38:15):
I'd avoid Garth.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
What other videos can you remember? Because of my mind?
That's all they came to my mind. It was like
the great ones.
Speaker 5 (38:21):
I mean there was also I think if Tomorrow Never Comes,
but that was like a singing like the one you're
talking about.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yeah, that one to me doesn't even register.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
What the visual was because he's just kind of singing.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
How many concerts of Garth's did you go to over
the years?
Speaker 4 (38:34):
One?
Speaker 1 (38:35):
No, two?
Speaker 5 (38:38):
Correct, you're right, but yeah, the one, the first one
ever was Little Rock with you and Amy, and then
the second one was the one where we.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
We opened up for Garth and then we stayed watched. Yeah,
but not for the whole thing, No, because it was
impossible to get out. And I was told because that
football stadium they were not prepared for one hundred and
ten thousand. It holds seventy thousand, and it's to get
out on game days because Fabelle is not a large town. Yeah,
and so they said, hey, if you want to get
out in less than two hours, because there was problems
(39:08):
of everybody getting in at the beginning.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
Wow, Oh, is that why everyone didn't show for our set?
Speaker 1 (39:13):
No?
Speaker 4 (39:13):
Nah, they were all there.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
I remember Garth didn't he wait to send us out
until everyone was already in their seats, because I remember
playing to a full stadium.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
So he first of all didn't start the show at
all with the opener until later because there were problems
with people getting in because that football stadium had never
been used for a concert. That was the first time ever,
first time ever they allowed like all the first of all,
no concert ever. But then they had people on the
field right it was totally sold out, so he didn't
started it all until later. And then he said, hey,
(39:43):
you guys shouldn't go on until like it's dark because
you'll like it better dark.
Speaker 4 (39:46):
And he was right.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
That was the balling that was so baller. You never
got to go as a kid to see Garth Brook No, man.
Speaker 5 (39:52):
I watched all the specials on TV. My dream was
to go to a concert, but there was just no way.
I remember even the Ireland Con series. I thought like, gosh,
how cool would it be to go to those?
Speaker 4 (40:03):
But those never happen.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
I was gonna say, I don't remember those. I've seen
the shirts.
Speaker 5 (40:08):
There because there was a huge promotion for the because
I remember he had a a I think Fresh Horses
was the album. He had a song called Ireland, and
he was very connected to Ireland and he was a
dream of his to play in Ireland, and he did,
like these five shows, booked these five shows to play
in Ireland. But I guess there was a problem with
the country either allowing him to perform there or making
(40:32):
money there or something where. It just never happened. I
think later, later in life it did happen. Like he
eventually did play Ireland.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
Yeah, he eventually even in our place here. I think
he's played since. Yes, we've been here. But Garth Brooks
canceled his highly anticipated twenty fourteen Well that was while.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
We were here. Huh No, I feel like the Ireland.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
No no, because the Dublin City Council refused a grant
licenses for all five shows.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
Oh so we were already here.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Maybe so.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
Dang.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Due to planning caps and heavy pushback from local residents
regarding neighborhood disruption, the council only approved permits for three nights.
Brooks famously issued an ultimatum, five shows are none at all.
Speaker 4 (41:10):
It's it he's trying to go.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
We shall be free again.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
He was like, I beat the super Bowl, I want
to beat Ireland.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
Now, stating that choosing which nights to cancel would be
like choosing between his own children. When the city stood firm,
he pulled the plug on the entire event, forcing over
four hundred thousand ticket refunds.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
Dang, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Croke Park had a limit of hosting a maximum of
three non sporting special events per year. Because the boy
band One Direction had already played three shows there, adding
five Garth Brooks concerts violated the venue's typical threshold. Then
there was neighborhood backlash. Garth's refusal to compromise. The story
ultimately reached a happy ending. So if that was twenty fourteen,
(41:51):
that was a little after we got here, and you're right.
In twenty twenty two he returned.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
That's when he actually played the show.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
All permits were cleared. He played a five sold out
night run at Croke parked over four hundred thousand ecstatic fans.
Speaker 4 (42:05):
So Garth got his way, but he had to wait
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
Both of those happened while we were here. The cancelations
I had to go back.
Speaker 5 (42:11):
I didn't realize the first one was in twenty fourteen.
I feel like that was way earlier, but yeah, he had.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
So twenty fourteen, And look, the internet's been wrong before,
but that feels like what it is is Garth's not
your favorite artist of all time, though.
Speaker 5 (42:24):
He was until about nineteen ninety three when Pearl Jam
came around, When pro Jam came around, I kind of
put the boots away for a little bit, brought the
doc Martin's out, and then became kind of a grunge kid.
But but I dude, Garth, there was just everything, like
I think to me, watching those TV specials changed everything
(42:44):
for me about because he was such a rock star.
Speaker 4 (42:47):
He was breaking guitars.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
It's also why he wasn't like warmly welcomed into country music.
People are like it, that's not country, that's not George Strait.
His live shows are not country. They told Garth Brooks
he wasn't huntry because of how he performed.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
Yeah, I mean, he was swinging through ropes.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Central Park is where I think about that was that
at every.
Speaker 5 (43:03):
Show that was I mean, gosh, I don't remember really exactly,
but because I remember the first one ever, it was
I think in Oklahoma. The first TV special was a
show in Oklahoma, was in a smaller arena, and then
he graduated to I think like Cowboys Stadium, and then
eventually he played Central.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
Park a million people, supposedly unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (43:22):
Hang tight, the Bobby Cast will be right back, and
we're back on the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
One of the things about that show that I remember
being mind blown was that Billy Joel played and he
played a Garth song, except I later learned it wasn't
a Garth song Shameless, it was Shameless, which was a
Billy Joel song. I was totally shaken. I was like,
that's cool. The guy from What's the Matter with Them?
Jack is playing with Garth Brooks's New York. I get it. Oh,
(44:00):
he's playing a Garth's song. What Garth did a Billy
Joel song. That's a cover. That's wild.
Speaker 4 (44:07):
He also did a cool cover of I may be
wrong and I maybe right.
Speaker 5 (44:15):
Yeah, he did it in one of those live shows
Oh got it, got It, which I found out later too,
was of Billy Joel's song too, so I think they
played that one together as well.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
A Garth cover that was good was to make You
Feel My Love?
Speaker 4 (44:27):
Yeah, dude, you know who's who wrote that?
Speaker 1 (44:29):
I'm Dylan Dumb. I'm not a stupid idiot, but I
feel like that was And Garth didn't do a lot
of covers at least so we knew, but I feel
like that one was awesome. That's Hope Floats.
Speaker 4 (44:40):
Right, Hope floats the movie.
Speaker 5 (44:41):
Yeah, Sandra Bullake, I think Garth did do a lot
of covers. I think he did mister Blue on the
on the second album, so I.
Speaker 1 (44:50):
Should rephrase singles that got famous?
Speaker 4 (44:53):
Oh right, right?
Speaker 1 (44:54):
Right now? Would Friends in Low Places be considered a cover?
Speaker 5 (44:58):
I don't think so, and I know why because somebody
else had released that, right, So he wrote it. Garth
did not write Friends of the Place.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
You sure?
Speaker 5 (45:06):
No, I am not one hundred percent sure, But I
don't think Garth wrote Friends in Low Places?
Speaker 4 (45:12):
Okay, God, I hope I'm right.
Speaker 1 (45:15):
You might be right Friends in Low Places writers? Now,
you're right, yes, but it's still a cover.
Speaker 4 (45:22):
Okay, Okay, So who wrote it? And he did release it?
Speaker 1 (45:25):
Right?
Speaker 3 (45:25):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (45:26):
Oh? Nut put it out?
Speaker 4 (45:28):
Chestnut?
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (45:29):
Oh, Chestnut did put it out.
Speaker 1 (45:31):
Yeah, okay, Chestnut put it out. Garth put it out,
Garth won.
Speaker 4 (45:37):
Wow. Did we ever talk to Chestnut about that?
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Dude? I don't know who we talked to it just
at this point we've talked, so we've talked to the Nut,
but I don't know about that. Dwayne Blackwell and Earl
Lee Budd. So yeah, that's what's up.
Speaker 4 (45:50):
I mean, that's really when everything changed right for Garth.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
Friends in Low Place, I mean, that's his biggest song
wasn't my number one because it's me, but that was
my number one.
Speaker 3 (45:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (45:59):
What's a cover that I think I got confused about
was maybe boot Scooting Boogie.
Speaker 4 (46:09):
Boots Scoot and Boogie, I think so. So that wasn't
written by Brooks and Dunn.
Speaker 1 (46:15):
It was written by Ronnie Dunn and Sleep at the
Will recorded it first. No way, I'm almost positive it
to that song. Let me make sure, oh Ray Benson, Yeah,
Boots Scooting Boogie. Let's see.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
It was.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
Written and performed Ronnie Done before he ever teamed up
with Kicks. The first recording was Asleep at the Will
nineteen ninety album Keep Yeah. I got those two mixed up.
That's on me. Hey, my bad on that.
Speaker 5 (46:40):
Because it's a big It was a I mean, the
biggest song for Big Brooks and Dune.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
But Garth did it still would be a cover if
Chestnut did it first. But is he covering chest Nutter?
Is he just doing it around the same time? Yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
I feel like they released it around the same time,
but at.
Speaker 6 (46:53):
Least in nineteen ninety say again, both released in nineteen ninety,
So I guess that's not a cover.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
That's just them putting the same song out at the
same time.
Speaker 5 (47:00):
So so is it on an album for Mark Chestnut,
because that's I mean, how I heard it before, right,
I don't remember.
Speaker 6 (47:08):
But there was another artist who released it in nineteen
eighty nine awesome, So maybe Wayne Chamberlain.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
Put it out. For three people have released Garth Brooks, well,
not Garth and Chestnut, and David Lee Chamberlain. That's his name,
David Lee Chamberlain. It was, yeah, David Wayne Chamberlain.
Speaker 5 (47:27):
Wayne Chamberlain, Alvickfieza, David Lee Murphy, David Wayne Chamberlain.
Speaker 1 (47:32):
All three of them released that song.
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Well, I mean, I.
Speaker 5 (47:33):
Should tell you really how much an artist you know,
can influence a song, because you know, they all released
it had their own little touch to it. But obviously
Garth's is the one that popped, same with Brooks and Dunn.
Speaker 6 (47:46):
The other song is My Maria, was originally released by
different artists back in the seventies.
Speaker 1 (47:51):
So that was a straight cover. They didn't write that.
I knew that Ronnie had written. Luckily I was right.
Bootschoot and Bogie as a songwriter Asleep with the Will
did it, and then they redid it obviously. Mark Chestnutt
released his own cover of Friends in Low Places on
his platinum selling nineteen ninety major label debut Too Cold
at Home.
Speaker 5 (48:09):
That's what it says that he covered it. Okay, Garth
would I had to be a cover to the absolutely wow,
there we go, man, poor Nutt.
Speaker 4 (48:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:18):
He had a pretty good career.
Speaker 4 (48:19):
Man, he really did. But gosh, I mean, dude, not
a Garth career is.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
Like, it would be crazy if you put out a
song and someone else puts out the same song and
their song it freaking explodes. Yeah, but it also could
have been the labels, like we'll put this out as
a single and his didn't. Right, you know, it could
have been that. But like chessnut had brother.
Speaker 4 (48:36):
Jukebox going through the Big d Dome in Dallas.
Speaker 1 (48:40):
It's a little too late to do the riot thing
now he even did. I don't want to miss a thing.
Speaker 4 (48:45):
Oh yeah, I remember that he did cover that.
Speaker 1 (48:48):
Well, thank you for this Garth back in time.
Speaker 4 (48:50):
I love Garth. I can talk about him for hours.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
I'll look back at Garth and thank you everybody for listening.
I do have another top ten coming up next week
of I don't want to spoil it yet. It's a
good one though, one of.
Speaker 4 (49:00):
Our favorite artists.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
No, oh, okay, all right, I don't want to say
too much. All right, it's not really what you're thinking.
Speaker 4 (49:10):
Okay, I'll wait.
Speaker 1 (49:12):
But I learned a lot while researching it.
Speaker 5 (49:16):
What was your Can you tell me what your last
number ten was on Garth Brooks.
Speaker 1 (49:22):
I don't have a list. Okay, it looks like maybe Rodeo.
Rodeo is so good. Dude, I don't know. I have
a blacked out list. And I know everybody that just
heard this heard me say it. We recorded this after.
Speaker 4 (49:36):
I just don't know. What do you mean? You have
a blackout list? So like once you said it, you
blacked it out.
Speaker 1 (49:41):
No, I have Well that would be like what I do.
I have a graphic of and I only listed at
eight and three, so people would be curious about the
rest that I posted.
Speaker 4 (49:50):
Got it? Got it? So the last one looks short?
Speaker 1 (49:53):
Yeah, but I don't know if we actually did the
real length of the songs. Let me look at the
files real quick. Hold on, let me have right here,
have right here Rodeo would would number ten? Rodeo?
Speaker 4 (50:04):
Okay, all right, it fits there. It's a jam. But
I mean there are so many good ones.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
Everybody knows because they listened to this. A rodeo was
at ten. Two of a kind of working on a
full house was at nine. That's so good, dude, standing
out to the fire eight, perfect under Rolls at seven,

Speaker 4 (50:59):
Man? You know which one? Calling baton rouge? You left
that out?
Speaker 1 (51:03):
I still would though. Really I pulled up every Garth
song ever going through this, and there were some hard,
hard decisions.
Speaker 4 (51:10):
Speaking of I think that one's a cover as well.
Speaker 1 (51:12):
It is a cover, yeah, right, yep, sure is.
Speaker 4 (51:14):
