I saw wapo was sobbing about Luke Combs remake of Tracy Chapmans song fast car. Somehow it’s evil for a white guy to do better with the song than a queer black woman. It’s RAYCIST donchtaknow.
I was pleasantly surprised to see their race baiting gained no traction at all.

It's not better, but it is pretty good. Chapman has endorsed Combs. And Combs is ecstatic about that because he admires her. It's not a competition.
Why am I not surprised you’d like this song. Lol.song of the summer.
It’s especially cool that the guy playing when the worst mass shooting in the US occurred is now putting out a song talking about shooting people. Yee haw, Murica!
They should do a duet, song lends itself really well to it. My favorite version is a duet.
I'd never really heard of him and not a fan but I do agree with the law and order message
He thanks you for making him famous!
Yeah I actually like Chapman's version a little better. They are both good though.

Don't we think maybe this is a bit too simplistic of a categorization between urban and small-town folk? Can you imagine if they put this video together, and in the background ran clips from the movies about Matthew Shepard and Brandon Teena?
I think too simplistic is a fair criticism of Jason Aldean’s music.
Of course the party of pedophilia and lovers of criminal behavior are appalled.
My wife likes Combs version better. I’m with you.
And Chapman is making bank on this so I totally understand why she likes it. For Combs part, he said he first heard the song with his dad and has loved it ever since. He’s been playing it live for years.
It’s a sad statement on the media in this country that they have to try and stoke hatred and resentment at every single opportunity.
And the fact that he’s just empty calories pop country. Definitely not for serious folks.
Sheryl Crow: @JasonAldean. I’m from a small town. Even people in small towns are sick of violence. There’s nothing small town or American about promoting violence. You should know better than anyone having survived a mass shooting. This is not small town or America. It’s just lame.
And people like me. Try smashing some windows in a small town and see what happens.
People seem to forget that song was nominated for a Grammy and she won best new artist for that album.
She was and still is a star.
Red meat song for wannabe tough guys and fake country dudes. And before you start, I live in a small town of 2900, have multiple guns, and hunt. But I can still think beyond trucks, guns, and girls.
The same goes for this song as when I hear teen kids here locally dropping the N word at the park. Try that crap in East St. Louis or Harvey Illinois. See where it gets you.
More bro country for a nation of pretenders.
You are a walking talking stereotype of a pretender. But glad a song from the bro country genre allows you to puff your chest out.
You are too much. Lol.
Agree. Both versions are good and a duo would be great.
I’ve admittedly only heard of the song today and watched the video once but how is it promoting violence?
Seems like it’s warning against violence.
Also, what, specifically, do you dislike about the song?
She should endorse him it has resurrected her career probably making her a ton of $$$$. For the record I like the TC version better, way better and it brings back HS memories.
Good song, I'm not the biggest JA fan but I knew it would trigger a bunch of people The song is not racist or promote violence at all it just says those who want to commit violent act would be best to not do that in a small town. Song went to number one for most downloads, it will make him millions.

I loved TC when she came on the scene. The work she did with Mellencamp was also something that I had on instant rewind (that was a thing back then).
Jason Aldean’s musical success and popularity are both highly inexplicable. His brand of formulaic pop-country crap is bad for music. But he’s one of many.
Jason Aldean is a douche. His first couple records were tolerable.
I was going to say this. Chapman was a prodigy and is a musical genius. Combs is a big fan as are most musicians. They are probably even proud to call that queer black women a friend despite what some here wish and project.
Aldean ripping off Hank Jr who probably ripped off someone else before him who probably ripped off someone and on and on
I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just "Hillbilly"
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
And I'd send him some homemade wine
But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For 43 dollars, my friend lost his life
I'd love to spit some Beech-Nut in that dude's eyes
Then shoot him with my old .45
'Cause a country boy can survive, country folks can survive

Jerks hold a violent protest, burning stuf, beating people, shooting, attacking cops
@typicaldumbassliberal tweets - yay!
Guy writes a song protesting the violence -and suggesting it would not happen in a small town, where the typicaldumbassliberal would get an #asswhopping so doesn’t have the courage to try that stupiddumbassliberal stuff
@typicaldumbassliberal tweets - “boo - we don't like your violence
I have no problem with people who dislike both sets of violence. I have big problems with people who celebrate one and condemn the other.
Not surprised you and her were both teachers.
So instead of drawing lines in the sand based on political affiliation, can we just all take a moment to recognize that the song sucks ass?
