  • isn't anyone smart enough to GOOGLE Sweet home Alabama before they start to bitch and moan.. wiki/Sweet_Home_Alabama you'll find lots of info about the song in Wikipedia..

    Fun fact..

    Nov 1990:

    Kid Rock released his first LP, Grits Sandwiches For Breakfast and opened for Ice Cube and Too Short on tour. His track "Yodeling In The Valley" resulted in college radio station receiving the largest FCC fine for playing the song.

  • what year was this?

  • Makes me proud to hear Kid Rock singing our song.  Alabama loves Kid Rock!

  • Kid Rock this is awesome singing with sknyrd!!

  • ihr seid die besten

  • and thats the fact

  • watch AMANDA OVERMYER, American Idol Finalist, sing a duet with JIMMIE VAN ZANT singing this cover song SWEET HOME ALABAMA at all her concerts while on Summer Tour promoting her new Album SOLIDIFY (itunes). You can see Overmyer's version also posted over YOUTUBE ...

  • You done Ronnie proud, Kid!

  • Where was Johnny Van Zant during this?

  • Kid Rock and Lynyrd SKynyrd you can not beet that. The only way that could be topped is if the Skynayrd plain crash had never happened and Ronnis, Johnny, and Kid Rock all took turns on vocals on this song with all the other orgional band members and Mr. Powel on Piano of course. Kid and kynyrd should do a custom song together wiht ll 4 back up singers. that should sound great. thanks for posting this video.

  • @ahnbra i didnt realize this till a few days ago, but they kinda did. on their album "vicious cycle" a few years back, they did a remake of gimme back my bullets with johnny and the kid doing about equal parts singing. it doesnt sound very much like the original, its actually the closest to a hard rock song i know of from skynyrd

  • the backround singers sound like there dying and giving birth at the same time lol

  • Comment removed

  • i love this song!!!it rocks

    

  • Kid Rock can just flat sing the songs that everyone else is to shitless to do. Love his music

  • What do you want? Rap? haaa!!! Kid Rock / Country is GREAT!!! :)

  • @SuperAnon2012 You should that realize he's a major asset to country/southern rock music. He's great at it ... he also born too late, he would have fit right in with it when it was going strong (mid-70s or so). But I do HATE that rap shit he does .. if he'd only drop that.

  • KID ROCK is a major Boil On THe @SS of this music he is an absolute embarrassment Hopefuly he remembers his "WHITE" roots , Fuck the NAACP OH yeah we can only accept negro's LMAO

  • GREAT RENDITION!! As for the ignorant ppl making statement like "he aint even from alabama' well neither was Lynyrd Skynyrd (correct spelling) ...they were all from florida..they named their band after the teacher that kicked them out of school.."Sweet Home Alabama" was written as an answer to two songs, "Southern Man" and "Alabama" by Neil Young, which dealt with themes of racism and slavery in the South. Before u bitch about a subject atleast know ur facts..Great song Great artist

  • @RDADAMS68 who the fuck cares just shut up and listen to the beautiful cooperation of the instruments and the voices of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Kid Rock

  • @RDADAMS68 thanx for tecahing me something new

  • @RDADAMS68 I agree. Who fuckin cares where Kid Rock is from? He is one of a less of musicians who does great southern music as a northern guy. Just listen his last album. Great stuff. Kid rock rocks. He is good in everything he does. Cause he does it with heart and emotion. Not like a Jared Leto who is acting on stage like he does in movies....

  • @RDADAMS68 there's a street in Jacksonville named Lynyrd Skynyrd....lemme see, that's pronounced.....reckon it was their Phys Ed coach did the kickin..Great Band and a great era for music....., let Neil Young cry in his beer, and Lynyrd Skynyrd tear down the house!!!!!

  • rickey medlocke sings this song better than kid rock does

  • @XXXbigdaddy101XXX i gotta say i think rickey sings it better than anyone except ronnie

  • @ThisIsS000Sad yeah rickey does sing it better than all but ronnie!...imagine where skynyrd would be now if ronnie and steve wouldnt have died in the plane crash...and if billy, allen and leon were all 3 still alive and artimus was still witht hem all...talk about kick ass rock!!!

  • it's absolutely fantastic - WOW!!! I liove that kind of dirty southern rock soooo much!

    FUCK that is so a murder music

  • it's absolutely so fantatstic WOW!!!!!!

  • It's time to rally together. Triumph over the Alabama twister.

  • this song makes me wish i was from alabama....n i'm a malaysian -.- damn reality

  • Everything Kid does is alright in my book......Chas., S.C

  • Awesome....Kid Rock did Ronny proud....

  • does not matte who sings it it still rock

  • Kid Rock did fine, but what impressed me was Rickey Medlocke 's solo on the Gibson Hummingbird. For those who don't know a lot about guitar soloing, that solo is hard enough to do on an electric guitar (speaking from experience), let alone on an acoustic. Gary Rossington usually gets most of the recognition, but this is an impressive performance that needs mentioning. Nice effort Rickey!

  • @rjworks13 My friend, this is not a Gibson Hummingbird..

  • @DanskeSange i dont even think rickeys playin a gibson is he?

  • @XXXbigdaddy101XXX well, he's play gibson here, but not hummingbird. Think its a jumbo.

    Have a great day

  • @DanskeSange - Your right, video's a bit distorted. I stand corrected... Actually, it looks like a Gibson J-250 Monarch.

  • great job kid rock!

  • They all do a great job. Way to go! Kid Rock you're the best.

  • I absolutely love this song! He has an awesome voice when he uses it properly and doesn't scream or belt it out. Glad he isn't rapping anymre. LOL!

  • See AMANDA OVERMYER sing this same cover song with JIMMIE VAN ZANT at Sturgis Bike Rally 2009, while OVERMYER was on summer tour promoting her new Album SOLIDIFY (itunes). You can see both OVERMYER and VAN ZANT'S duet also posted over the YOUTUBE ...

  • Bod Dylan,Aretha Franklin,Paul Simon,Lynyrd Skynyrd,Rolling Stones,Bob Seger,Rod Stewart,Allman Bros.,Otis Redding,Percy Sledge,Dire Straits,and many others recorded in Muscel Shoals,Alabama!Also Bands from Alabama The Commadores,The Temptations,Alabama,Blackland,­The drive by truckers!!

  • Im from Muscel Shoals,Alabama!And do you kno more #1 hits were produced here than LA or NY??

  • @met1bama

    Man I just had to tell you that I took a road trip to Muscle Shoals just to see the FAME studio...man that trip was so mint. People were like "why are you going to Muscle Shoals?" and i was like "Because Muscle Shoals' got the SWAMPERS!!!"

  • Great performance if it wasn't for all the posts running through the video...I couldn't even enjoy the cool video. Government mind control, they try to brainwash you.
