I.ve seen Beth live...at the sage..Newcastle....she walked on and said...this looks far too posh...or something similar....what a true artist she is....my opinion on music is that it's all about emotion...wether it's beth or the pistols...this woman is special in my opinion...someone who can portray hers and many others with life's struggles through her music and that voice...just my opinion...so don't shout..😂...forget Whitney and the likes...BTW.. not dissing them...but Beth Hart...omg..what a singer...one that really does move u...
@@alan-reacts65 You deserve it because I can tell you're motivated by a genuine love for music. I have 6 kids and they're all mad for our generation's music. I trained them right and I'll definitely suggest your channel to them.
One of the most famous mondegreens. Recaps the craziness of becoming an adult--I hear the roller coaster and calliope as an analogy for the hopes and dreams, naivety of life, and the people who make promises or take advantage. The needle you have to thread to grow up, mature. Fun song, and was as close to disco as I was going to get (although...)
@@Watchman70 A friend of mine introduced me to the word. They did an entire playlist of mondegreens. 2 of my favorites were "Hold me closer, Tony Danza" and "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)" Oh, and almost forgot "There's a bathroom on the right"
I need to say If I just said next to nothing I could get a copy right strike because I’m not doing anything to transform the content ! And genuinely if everyone or at least a significant number on the channel gave me the same feed back then I’d obviously take it on board because of that, but if you genuinely feel this way , you are free to tell me , but we will probably have to agree to disagree 👍 absolutely no offence is intended btw .
Great reaction, thanks - that really took me back. I lost count of the times I saw Earthband live, they were my favourite band for a long time. Chris Thompson was such a good vocalist and that was Manfred Mann himself singing the verses at the end while Chris repeated the "Blinded by the light .... " parts. This wasn't the only Springsteen song they covered (and dare I say improved). The Roaring Silence was such a good album, but they had several excellent albums - 'Nightingales and Bombers', 'Angel Station', 'The Good Earth', 'Watch', 'Solar Fire', 'Chance' and some more I can't remember as well as a load of greatest hit type albums ... but these ones were my favourites.
I’m so glad you listened and shared , I’ve pinned your comment , so much for those of us ( me included ) to learn , now I’ve screen shot it as well , as now I can go look to find the next from this band 😎😊👍
Remember hearing this on the radio many times growing up.. a little snyth heavy which was in the style of music at the time...., a little guitar overlay spiced up this song... but to be honest for many years the lyrics 'Revved up like a deuce" was not what I heard.... lol ....
@@alan-reacts65 lol..., what I thought I was hearing was "wrapped up like a .......", which really made no sense.. but that's what I remember and I'm sticking to it...., lol
Named after jazz/blues musician John Handy. They covered Jack McDuff on Pilgrimage ‘Vas Dis’. Wishbone had so many different influences blues and jazz as well as folk. It’s what makes their music so varied and different.
No other guitarist combined technical prowress, tone, feeling, showmanship, and physicality like Stevie did---period!! AND throw in that singing voice that fit in perfectly with the playing. Incidently, Stevie was deep in the throes of addiction at this performance. The next year he'd be set free---and become better than ever!!
I have been listening to wishbone since 1971! I am really enjoying watching your journey into the power, emotion, and outright brilliance of my all time favorite band!
@@alan-reacts65 It is so hard but I would go with either "Sometime World" ( it is beautiful) or "The King Will Come" (I think this piece demonstrates all of their talents vocally, instrumentally, and compositionally-if that is a word! LOL)
I’m not a musician and I’m not an expert at anything in music , but just like your good self I know that they are very very exceptional , could I say brilliant ? Well I couldn’t argue they are not 😊👍😎
Glad I didn't steer you wrong on this one. I didn't like a lot of 80s music but I pretty much had Chris Isaak, Alan Parsons and Steve Winwood on shuffle on the CD player. This is a bit more laid back than "Eye in the Sky," but I think they complement each other. Just a beautiful song.
Have to admit , it took me a minute of listening and thinking then it ( the connection for me ) just dropped ! The eighties is a funny time for me and many I think , some absolute bland rubbish , but as always thiers clasdics , if you dig a little 😊👍 Hi Julie and thank you , some more Teh years after coming very soon , it’s uploaded already .. looking forwarded to people’s thoughts 😎
I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction to this magnificent performance. Great art is thought-provoking, and this piece is and always has been that. :) For me, shying away from Jesus' humanity does Him a disservice and minimizes the full sacrifice He made. One thing you said that got me thinking is that it was performed like an inner dialogue. I thought that was so profound given that Jesus is also fully God. Wow.
Omg Tommy has had his own band Majestica for 25 years, he was lead guitarist for Sabaton, he has done God knows how many covers hear on utube. He has the most humble heart, sense of humor❤❤❤ he is the king, the goat!!! Tommy plays 15 instruments, and produces his own music videos. Excellent guitar videos are Loner cover, and the Rocky 4 Montague. He just released his first song on his new album of Majestica called a new beginning, it's awesome. You will fall in love with him as true Tommy fans have. Thank you for your reaction!!❤❤❤
Love to watch new people discover Tommy! Great reaction! My favorites are his original..."The Light" and his cover of his idol, Gary Moore's "Over the Hills and Far Away", close third, Queen's "Who wants to Live Forever", "Ave Maria", and "O Helga Natt for a three way tie! ❤
Great reaction! Please check out SRV's Mary Had a Little Lamb at Austin. By the way, when in Austin, call in early to Austin City Limits. Same place Stevie and others have rocked the world. 😊
By the way, I agree with about how you experience listening to Stevie. For me, I get emotional because of his artistry but it is also the quality of his humanness.
Unique? Genius? So much more? Yes, to all. SRV is the GOAT. There isn't any question. He was simply perfect. There are certain people that are so exceptional, part of me wonders if they were actually of this planet. SRV is at the top of that list. And his band-I know they rarely get the attention they deserve because of SRV but they were absolutely superb.
You want to see some of his talent? I would reccomend any of his Queen/Freddie Mercury covers. He nails them and I guarentee Freddie would be smiling down on him.
Great musicians, and their music, last through time. It doesn’t matter if an individual does not likes the music but as long as there is a large group of people listen, enjoy, and try to understand - the music (and its’ musician) we endure and find hearts to reside in.
🙌👏🎸🎶💙Hey Alan👋🌹. Couldn't click fast enough when this notification turned up. I always enjoy your reactions but especially Stevie Ray. The look in your eyes mirror my own showing awe, amazement, respect, and love. Somehow I never tire of his music or his genuine passion. Each and every time I watch him play, it's as if it is the first time. But the more I watch/listen the more respect and appreciation I have. How pleasantly surprised I was to hear you mention me probably suggesting this. I appreciate your dedication to details👌. Before I go to buy some coffees I would love you to keep this next request in mind. Riveria Paradise is considered by many, myself included, to be Stevie's masterpiece. He was working on it for a number of years but perfected it after his own rehab and recovery. It acknowledges the pain of being trapped in addiction, gives a musical healing balm for a weary spirit, and infuses the spirit of recovery and regained power and strength, unfolding peace and freedom. He dedicates it to all those still suffering in any way. It is very much on the slow jazzy side. It really expresses so much of his own personal path and the triumph over his life. He spent the last years of his life helping people find their way out and it meant everything to him to do that. He felt strongly that music has a strong healing force and I agree🎶 The performance is from Austin City Limits 1989. You are looking great Alan! Life must be agreeing with you🦋
Hi Harriet , I have put aside Riviera Paradise for a while , I’ve asked myself why ? Uncomplicated answer , not ready not aware enough of who he was musically , so yes I’m approaching it with a more educated mind set now .. I absolutely take conversation ( digital or not ) as a good thing and value them , I do genuinely screen shot and make notes , perhaps I’d do a behind the making of a reaction one time , but it’s simple , I’m just curious about what I don’t know and curious about what I think I know in exactly the same measure .. If that makes sense 😊 In case I wasn’t explicit “ Riviera Paradise “ is next .. for 2 reasons , you asked and secondly I’m ready 😊 oh and your email on my buy me a coffee page just pinged .. headed thier in a minute 😎👍
@@alan-reacts65 - IMHO - Riveria Paradise is his masterpiece and a prayer of sorts for those who have fought and continue to fight drugs and alcoholism. Than you Harriet for recommending it! ❤🙏
@@alan-reacts65 well for whatever reason you have yet to react to Riveria Paradise, I pronounce you ready to absorb, appreciate, and be in awe of this man’s mastery and how he is able to pray through his guitar. Have to share a story from the recording session of this song. He had the lights turned down in his room, turned his back so he couldn’t see anyone and started playing. He had been told they only had a certain amount of minutes left on the tape. He said no problem. But he was still playing and the tape was running out. They frantically tried to get his attention to wrap it up but he didn’t see them. Then with seconds to spare he finished🎶. Everyone was astonished. When asked why no lights and back turned he said it was as close to praying with his guitar as he could get. You will hear his prayers 🙏🙏🙏🎶🎶
Hi there, you know you have a bit more talent here in Tommy. He is not only singing and playing the guitar, but also keyboard/piano, drums , bass , flute, accordion, keytar, and what not....he is such a musical talent Absolutely brilliant. He does so much in music . Just listen to his channel. If you want to find out what he is vocally capable of, listen to his rendition of the phantom of the opera. He sings both parts. If you want to see a lot of instruments, you need to go to one of his swedish songs. " nu grönskar det." It is a metal version of a swedish folk song. Enjoy😊😊😊
@@kaelynshea5533 so you are the 1st to direct me up a Swedish song and a folk song 😊 metal style .. well I can absolutely guarantee that’s getting the attention I feel it will deserve 😎👍 thank you ☺️
I’m really very happy and a little embarrassed because like I say , I’m just saying what you know and feel but I just love to try to find meaning and the words 😊😎👍
New sub from Team Tommy checking out your great reaction to our guy, Tommy! He never disappoints and you will soon discover he always shows the utmost respect to the original artists and songs! You should also check out his band Majestica, a whole band full of special talent!
