Sometimes I wonder if we're about to have a new civil war against our government, now that it is infected with corporatists, federalists, globalists, and fascists who are trying to increase control over us. I'm starting to understand what the Confederacy was really fighting for. The modern zeitgeist covers it up with anti-hick propaganda.
I'm from Minnesota-what's with this north/south crap? You hicks are idiots. Move to a 3rd world country because that's what your IQ comes off as. People up here laugh at your ignorance.
@jrcproductions101 i agree. Most of these Southern hicks have no idea what is going on in their own country. If they did , they'd be voting for Ron Paul
I don't have anything against anyone ,I don't care where your from friends we all bleed red and that makes us all the same race,the human race.Jimi Henbrix once said "when the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace".So stop all the fussing already.
It's people who fly the battle flag (which isn't the national flag of the CSA) and keep pin-ups of trailer trash wrapped in the flag and say shit like "Hell no, I ain't forgettin'" and "the South will rise again" that just make all of us look like idiots to the North and to the rest of the world in general.
@jhyfyuk i act how i want with my flag that my grandfathers died for and so can any decendent of any confederate soldier if u dont like it u move up north with*as tom petty says* blue belly devils lmao
@jhyfyuk So what ..At least its not RAP music. By your logic that makes everyone who potrays that image nothing more than baby making welfare gangst thugs..
What's w/you Rebs putting bumper stickers on your car that say "Fighting Terrorism Since 1861"? Did you NOT forget that America was Indian territory before we settled upon it? The Indians have been "fighting terorism since 1492". Come on, don't be naive people. You know who was here first & it wasn't the white settlers.
man that song is too fucking great im from quebec and were rebel too i remember running my toyota 4runner 88 playing that son smoking a cigarette .... best feeling in life
Yeah, theres a reason the north doesnt call themselves the north or fly a flag. Because all we need is the american flag. We dont fly flags marked by failure or stupidity.
This one is what got me crazy back in 84' at Live Aid, had never heard about Tom the Southern Rebel before taht. Tom Petty has been a no. 1 favorite ever since. Too bad thje southerner is not touring Norway and the rest of You(rope around your neck).
Come visit the fjords of Norway, Tom - like great southerners have done before you!
south will rise again hahahaha no we wont rise again well just let the yanks stay where they are cause as long as theyre not around the south i dont give a shit what they do
What amuses me most is the Yanks who don't read history! CSA Article 190-193 abolished slavery, but ya'll can't read that...cuz then you'd just have to admit that the Civil War wasn't even ABOUT slavery! It was ABOUT an agricultural v. industrialism as a way of life...Ya'll won. Thanks for all the pollution--oh, and Grant's wife was the last one to give up her slave, since Yankees kept them after the South gave them up!
@aerowayne1 That's how I feel about people who disgrace the flag of my native land. To me, that yankee rag of the US ain't worth a damn.That ain't my flag nor is that my country.
@waylon972 Hail to South! From Russia with REAL love (without " " :) ) . The Dixie's flag is flying on my car. And I'm not the only one with it in my country. Glad to hear from you!
@flybryguy How can you make light of such a horrible event in the United States' history? How can you treat any war with such irreverence? It's very telling of either your lack of intellect or lack of upbringing.
The North did not "kick" anyone's ass. Both sides suffered massive casualties, except the North came out on top. Then, they proceeded to rape and pillage Southern lands like drunken barbarians.
@peterzang agreed - I love this song - heck love the entire album, but this video is stupid as hell........and I am a Southerner. Crud like this video sadly perpetuates the ignorant stereotype of who and what we are down here.
Check out Drive-by Truckers version of this song and draw your own conclusion. I feel it is even better than the original version...like it was meant for them to cover it.
Im not one to incite politics or anything, But i really love this song for its precedence towards myself. I was born July 3rd, 1988 -a sunday - in south carolina, and im in direct lineage to John C Calhoun. I've always loved tom's music, and the first time i heard 'Rebels', i was floored. I'm saddened that everyone always has to break down into the whole slavery issue when thinking of the past and attributing it to racism. It's a new world - If a son of the south can rise above it, why cant you?
O and 1 more thing its just a song....a dam good song! So stop smearing its greatness in crap like racism bullshit and enjoy the music. This song was never made to bring hate only peace and love.
honestly wtf what is worng wit you people we are all the same on the inside. Black people are people as well and for your information there were white slaves too (also called niggers) so you may wanna get a new word for wut you think nigger means cuz it means nothing more than slave it has no color to it. Also you need to look past the color of someones skin and see that they are a person just like you. [And i am white fyi and I am Canadian!!] Canada accepts every1, and thats how it should be!!!
@alexmang420 thank you :) i'm white but i absolutely can not stand racists. i'm orginally from rochester NY but now live near cincinnati Ohio and people here are so racist.
read faulkner, you idiot, if you want to know about the aftermath of the civil war. the niggers, not having any masters anymore, followed the yanks to washington dc, where they are entrenched to this day.
The shame would be if it were not displayed as a confederate album. The south stood up to the libtards of the north, and almost kicked their mushbrain asses. We'll kick those asses next time. And we will send all of those ungrateful "democrats" that we fought the civil war over up north so that all of youze libs can feed and house them while they shuck and jive in harry reid fashion. No dems in the south, says I.
Exactly. It's a great song so who cares !! He's hardly glorifying slavery is he ? The song's about Johnny Reb and Dixie. And whatever you think politically the fact that the South stood up to the larger industrial north I and I'm sure a lot of others find that very romantic. "I can still see the eyes of those blue bellied devils".
Sometimes I wonder if we're about to have a new civil war against our government, now that it is infected with corporatists, federalists, globalists, and fascists who are trying to increase control over us.
