So.
I thought the song was just Dusty.
What's with everyone (and I mean EVERYONE..unless you're part of the everyone that doesn't) adding an 'O' before it?
Why O Dusty?
Where did this O come from and why did it place itself in front of Dusty and not any one of the other songs?
Why O? Why not another letter? Why not the letter M?
M Dusty? That would be: Mmmdusty.
Why? And, who started this? Do I need to slap a bitch?

Haha it's a part of the song which is: "Dusty O Dusty, decision night, don't be so pretty..." Also "O" in portuguese means "the"

Dusty, oh Dusty may be the line from the song, but isn't there also a website called O Dusty? I have never refered to the song as O Dusty. It's one of my favorites though, and I play it on the guitar about 4 times a week.

I believe the song's been published as either "O Dusty" or "Oh Dusty." A long time ago, Jane sent me a link where it was referred to as "O Dusty" I believe. I'll see if I can find it. It was, like, ASCAP or something; it was one of those official sites. I run o-dusty.com. I knew well the song was called "Dusty" and not "O Dusty," but I chose to call my website "O Dusty!" because it had a Stephen Foster ring to it. It was Southern- and funny-sounding. I liked it. Is there something wrong with that?

Damn, I can't find the link... But, like, back in 2005, Jane (for those of you who know Jane) sent me the link to show that it wasn't always Caleb who wrote the songs, because I believe only Nathan was credited for "Dusty." (I don't even think Angelo had a credit.) And it was some sort of index of American songwriters, he was listed as either "N. Followill" or "Ivan Followill." And I remember it was published with the title "O Dusty" and I thought that was really funny, cuz I picked that name for my website only because I thought it sounded cool.
So, yeah, I think that's why you see it called by two names. It was published earlier as "O Dusty" but showed up as "Dusty" on the album. I THINK!
If I ever find that link, I'll post it.

I seem to remember the one credited 'O Dusty' turned out to be the piano version...

Well yesterday when I was listening to "dusty (piano version)" I realized it was called O Dusty! hehe, so I uploaded the song and the informations of it were really as "O Dusty" and I quickly remembered this thread hehe. It was:
Mp3 Info: Title: O Dusty // Year: 2003 // Artist: Kings of Leon // Track Number: 1 // Album: CD Version #1 // Genre: Rock Sample
Not the most important thing but isn't it random at all hehe

Whoever wrote that review didn't give the entire CD a real listen.
Anyone who doesn't like Dusty is, in my opinion (and it is only an opinion), classless. Dusty is the purest of modern blues which is the basis of real rock and roll. I don't know anyone who doesn't love the blues or at least just one song based on the blues. The blues belong to anyone and everyone: any kind of heartbreak, the universal truth.
I'm one of those people that always skips over the slow song on the first few listens of a new CD and when I finally gave it a listen I felt like I'd had an epiphany. This was somehow my song. I think that was the moment when I really, truly started to respect the Kings' as musicians.
Everything about the song captivated me-- the recording process, the background noise, the bass, the screeching. I loved it, I loved them. The End.
