Drive-By Truckers "Play It All Night Long"

[hokiejames]

and to those that say its sucked-- anyone else covering warren with love?

[hokiejames]

anyone who says they are trashing this song are idiots.. This is a love song to Warren.. If you dont think so you dont know DBT.

[whiskeydays]

HAPPY fcukn NEW year!

[genitalsmckool]

i love this band but i'm not a fan of this cover.

[jclochridge]

wash your mouths out with buckshot, worst version ive ever heard.

[poughkeepsiejohn1]

If only Warren Zevon were alive to hear this...

[bigdaddyjayfrank]

A great tribute to Mr. Zevon. Outlaw Country plays the best music on the airwaves.

[bigdaddyjayfrank]

A great tribute to Mr. Zevon!

[WisperSoft]

Lol, brings a whole new meaning to play that dead band's song, doesn't it?

[UncleSlam81]

This show ain't no good.

[BratyBraty2by4]

Me and my dad love this band!

[theblitz8]

It's not the same without the snare rolls in the background

[badmayonaise]

these guys butchered a great song, what were they thinking?

[bigstereo]

Love the version of this on their "Fine Print" album.

[bdaleypsu]

Zevon pwns these guys.

[boristhespider72]

This is a great Warren Zevon song and now a great Drive By Truckers cover. I happen to think that Warren would love it. This has been getting a lot of air play on Outlaw Country for some reason.

[selasie777777]

brother billy had his both guns drawn he aint been right since Vietnam...

[spudz6975]

All you fuckers can lick my scrotum that are hatin this song. Imitation is the highest form of flattery, Zevon would be proud.

[guslane]

for some reason this version is getting tons of air play on sirius's outlaw country these past few weeks. given that it's not a new release, i have no idea why. i love this video, btw. thanks for posting!

[JDoe899]

brucellosis not tuberculosis, assholes.

warren rolls over when he hears this half ass shit.

[spudz6975]

if you listend to the song, you may see that the line is "mad cow" and quite appropriate for the times...you can lick my scrotum too.

[3bimp]

I can't understand a damn thing they're singing. Wtf?

God, what a mess this is. Poor Zevon.

[crimchessie]

I don't see why so many are dissin' a NYE jam. Hell, it doesn't sound too far off from Crazy Horse. IMHO.

[The76dutchman]

DBT fucking rocks bitches! The singing was sloppy but so what, that's just rock-n-roll! If you listen to the studio version of this on "the fine print" you'll see. And I agree that ther's no doubt they have the utmost respect for Zevon.

[eatbananaforlunch]

kind of not very good at all these guys are awesome with their own stuff but they shouldn't have done this

[THX10538]

They're drunk, they mess up too many lyrics, like how they don't say "The cattle's all got brucellosis, we'll get through somehow"

I like the notion of covering Zevon, but fail

[markkickmark]

where is the slide? Cooley sucks on this song.

[JonMGilbertson]

As a long-time Zevon AND DBT fan, I think this is a rollicking version of a fine song. It sure as hell beats the horrid use of "Werewolves of London" on Kid Rock's shit-rock single "All Summer Long."

[phildirt3]

goddamn i hate that kid rock ripoff this isnt real good either sorry zevon purist here linda did good on some of his tunes though

[normanplombe]

@JonMGilbertson yup ...i really did the self-deprication of dbt doing this one....those guys are so cool.

[gamjamproductions]

For those of you who don't know anything about the Truckers, they could not be any more respectfull to the muscians who came before them. The lead singers Dad was part of the original Muscle Shoals backing band. Yes...they are rough live at times. It's New Years Eve and they drink....sometimes heavily. They just released this on disc and it's much, much better. I am quite certain the band are all Warren Zevon fans.

[CofC413]

@gamjamproductions they may be rough live on youtube, but I've seen them a number of times and think their live performance is unbelievable. So much energy and talent in the room. I admit though, every show I've seen they are passing around a water bottle full of dark liquor but that adds to the appeal..

[michael41722]

C'mon,DBT did'nt mean any disrespect and it's new years eve .You know they are trashed??!!

[MrScrivener]

I don't know these guys, so this is not a blanket judgment on their other work, but I hope the Zevon estate issues a cease and desist letter. I couldn't do more disservice to Warren Zevon than this.

[Clevererogue]

Wow, I'd heard a lot about these guys, so when I saw that they were playing a song by my favourite songwriter...I had to check it out. Sorry I did, that was like a bad Tragically Hip attempt. I hope they've improved since.

Holy Bad Vocals Batman!

[Willieneis1]

You gotta be kidding me, I love zevon, and the song is great because of its lyrics, which he wrote. But DBT's version sounds as pissed off and crazy as the lyrics sound like they should be.

[birdiejoehoaks]

exactly. they made it jarring on purpose, like townes' waiting around to die

[kiko55]

zevon's version > than this crap

[1diesel1]

this version will have warren zevon rolling over in his grave

[Slapdash1]

As muc as I like them, their version of the song sucks.

[martinblank2]

Yeah. But God would I love to hear them sing it.

I love both and although the Truckers version is rough and shady I love the song to much to turn down a live performance.

[gruibingen]

Wow, I always thought this song was a vicious swipe at southern/country livin' written by one of the greatest songwriters of all time. I'm a huge fan of both Zevon and DBT, just never thought they'd cover this one.

[patchouliskye]

awesome video....DBT ROX!

[patchouliskye]

awesome!

[lukeclews]

jesus, the singing is shit,

i feel for you zevon, what a disgrace to your song

[CFCnole407]

Who let these ass clowns re-make a classic?

[cowpiev7]

This is pretty awful.

[MadtownAlec]

Yeah - its a Zevon song - the original is actually one of the videos on the right - and Patterson mentions that its a Zevon song in a live rendition I have where he talks about "slaughtering it every once in a while just to keep it alive."

[zzzepptri]

That's their own song...not Zevon's song!

[spuddwebb]

No it's not fuckhead.

[lonegunman69]

you are dumb as balls

[z8it]

Good God, you're stupid....

Way to go Bubba. Keep that southern tradition alive.

BothThe Truckers and Zevon would have a laugh over that one.

The south will rise again.

[frifawnwolf]

Thank You!

DBT doing Zevon

wonder if they covered Zappa...
