21Year Old FIRST TIME HEARING Doobie Brothers - Long Train Running REACTION!!! 

You can’t go wrong with The Doobies. Try Black Water

I adore seeing "the younger kids" in the world loving 70's music. Before computer-generated, in-tune tools. Real voices, 4 part harmony. And the honest rebellion we had.

China Grove is another great one pre-Michael McDonald era

The Doobies are one of the best supergroups of all time.

Also “Takin it To The Streets” ✌️

IMO, The Doobie Brothers is one of those rare bands that NEVER recorded a bad song. Pick any album, and just play it. Every song is great.

Hello to my high school daze!!! 😽 Gotta love The Doobie Brothers!

“Ya know I saw Miss Lucy. Down along the tracks She lost her home and her family now she won’t be coming back.”

You want to hear them do something that hits you right in the heart? Listen to "Taking It To The Street".

Awesome man! - What a Fool Believes, Listen to the Music, Black Water, China Grove ✌️

They were so soulful and they put out some great tunes. The 70"s rocked!!

Minute by Minute is my favorite Doobie Brothers song among other amazing songs!!!

I wish I had appreciated this music more when it was new. But back in the 70's there was so much great music that we just kind of expected it to all be excellent. Nothing like today where you have to sort through 300 songs to find one that has talent. Back then it was talent: no bullshit autotune and computer looping.

Lead singer then was Tom Johnston. He had to leave the band in 1975 due to health issues. Michael McDonald came in after that as lead singer.

" listen to the music " you will like that too ❤️

Nothing but the BEST from the BEST decade of music...1970s!! Doobies STILL kicking it today!! Up there with the GOAT bands..Chicago, Earth Wind and Fire, Eagles, BTO, BeeGees, etc......

With this bànd, everyone member was so talented and their voices melt into one another so beautifully. Never knew who was going to have the lead vocals. Love and appreciate their band.

"Long Train Running" by the Doobie Brothers is a pure "FIRE" Banger!!!

One of the best harmonica solos of all time too!!!

Can't go wrong playing the Doobies.

This is music for the people. ❤️

back when vocal harmony was ever present and appreciated.

This group has had three lead singers. This singer I believe if my memory serves me is named Johnson. He wrote this song and one that has become a standard LISTEN TO THE MUSIC if you never listen to another of their songs without a doubt this one must be it, When this guy left the group Michael McDonald took the lead, The songs changed to more of a blues style. Michael sings TAKIN' IT TO THE STREETS and WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES are classics.

1973, soundtrack to my Junior High years.

U MUST hear BLACK WATER by them. The BEST. U will not b disappointed. Great band Be well Be safe Be happy Fr across the waters Canada 🍁 🐥🐥🐥hugs 2 ALL

Many to suggest, so start with Jesus is Just Alright.

In the early 70s the Doobie Brothers were my cleaning the house music. Just blast it and dance and sing while working and before you know it everything's clean. Black Water is a must listen. I would also recommend Takin' It to the Streets and Rockin' Down the Highway.

The Doobie Brothers "Long Train Runnin", just genius. I've never heard another song like it. Michael McDonald wasn't with the DBs at this time. He joined later,and together they created a whole new sound.Michael was also with Steely Dan.He also did keyboard and background vocals for other artists.Like Christopher Cross and Kenny Loggins.

"Black Water" is an excellent song by the Doobies.

It Keeps You Running by Dobbie Brothers is another great song by this group from the 70's.

I love to see young people react to the true musicianship and the great singing of the Doobies. So so good. Enjoy!

You listened to the proper Doobies this time. Tommy Johnston, lead singer/songwriter and guitarist, who did this number among many, had to leave the group in the 1980's, after which Michael McDonald, who had already played with them before from time to time, too over the lead. There are... many mixed emotions about McDonald. But like him or hate him, he did keep the band together and successful through the 80's for which we should be thankful. Nowadays Tommy Johnston is back again, and they still rock the joint as never before; there's concerts on the youtubes by them up to like 2016/17/18 My all-time fave is and always will be their first huge hit Listen to the Music. Such an uplifting, upbeat song, you just can't sit still when you hear it. If you listen to it, you'll find out ^_^

I NEVER get tired of this song!

I have long loved this song - but I've gotta say, watching *you* hearing it for the first time was a trip. Man, your facial expressions are beyond entertaining.

I love when people react to this...I've never seen anyone not love this song, but your facial expressions are making this a great reaction. I still do similar ones every time I hear this song.

Always invited to my picnic The Dooooobs!!!!!

Wore out the Doobie Brothers 8 Track a few times in high school in the 1970's. Google 8 track tapes...lol

Love the Doobies.

The guitar licks are amazing & the bass line is nasty good!!!

When Music was Real and made you feel good and want to get out and have fun.

Michael McDonald was in the band, he sang What A Fool Believes, but this was before he joined the band.

Child, this reaction gives me some hope for future generations. ♡Your face when the harmonica started up ... ♡

I think this was before Michael McDonald joined, there sound change some once he was there! My favorite pre-McDonald song is LISTEN TO THE MUSIC!

The Doobies cannot be denied".Long Train Running" is my favorite Doobie Bros.song.They have so much to offer,and they never fail to give it.

This song and China Grove by the Doobies and Stairway to Heaven were played at every dance when I was in high school, absolutely necessary.

Saw them in concert. Super awesome! What a Fool Believes is actually Michael McDonald during his solo career. “Black Water” and “Jesus is Alright” is great!

The Doobs rock AND groove. " What A Fool Believes" was a ginormous hit for a reason. Big recommendations here. I know you'll love it. A different, soulful sound to this stellar, diverse band.

They did a quarantine version of Black Water you must hear. They still sound great after all these years!

This song reminds me of freedom, serious partying, hallucinogenic drugs. Now I'm a great granny!

The SOUL in ur young life kiddo is AMAZING ..... my God ur lucky to feel it like this being able to present to other with no filter .... magical .. thank u for this ;)))) There are still people out there i guess .....

Doobies were one of the best at rhythm sounds that kept you in a groove.

70s rock, not repeatable. It hit us from every angle and side, one after the other, cheap,concerts, no theatrics, justAMAZING music❤ thanks for your review

So much soul. I love this band.

I see how you reacted to the harmonica. Have you ever seen a live performance of Little Stevie Wonder song Fingertips? There’s nothing else like it.

The Doobie Bros appeared on the 70’s TV show based in Watts LA “What’s Happening” Roger asks one of them “which Doobie you be?” Classic 😆

One of my favorite bands of the 70's. Makes you wanna dance!!!!🕺🕺

Pure country too . SOUTH CITY MIDNIGHT LADY is gorgeous.

It's hard to sit still with this record It's awesome!!

The Doobs ruled the 70s.

Without love, where would you be now? Thank you sir!

"" (or "") is a song recorded by The Doobie Brothers and written by band member Tom Johnston. It was included on the band's 1973 album and released as a single, becoming a top 10 hit on the US Hot 100, peaking at No. 8

My personal favorite by the Doobie Brothers is listen to the music great classic

I think you will also like The Eagles, Hotel California.

There ya go! Soul moving music! Makes you feel uplifted!

Doobie Brothers, pre Michael McDonald, Rock! Jesus is Just Alright, Black Water and China Grove!

You cannot go wrong with anything by the Doobies.

Yes BLACKWATER!!

Not since the Righteous Brothers have we heard 'WHITE SOUL' with a black twist.. til now. The Doobie Brothers have earned respect from all genres and crossed over to R&B.

So funky !!! Gotta boogie on down !! 🤗

It's hard to beat the 70's for music.

Doobie Brothers had so many hits but this one is my favorite

DOOBIE BROTHERS, "LISTEN TO THE MUSIC".. "JESUS IS JUST ALRIGHT"... WAY BEFORE MICHAEL MCDONALD. WHEN THEY WERE NEW...

Man, I just love how you are enjoying that old-school stuff. It touched my heart, it really did. It’s good stuff. There’s a couple things I, as a musician Born during that time, feel I have to spell out for anyone who was born after about 1990. It’s a little thing but, it’s really easy to overlook if somebody doesn’t point it out sometimes. Here it is: this music is all made up of people making it from scratch with real musical instruments played by real people. It’s very different from a lot of what you get nowadays where everything is electronic and mixed up. For instance, that’s a real drummer there and not a beat machine with pre-programmed rhythms. That’s a real bass player there instead of a keyboard or electronic base groove. Same goes for the guitar player and that out of this world harmonica. And it’s just beautiful the way it all blends together. You felt it because it got you moving. That’s all that heart that goes into it from all the people making it. The other thing I want to point out is that it’s all original. There’s nothing being sampled here from something somebody else made back in the day. This really is music from back in that day! I wish we could get back to that a little bit because I think we’re missing something by not having it anymore. Peace, love and music.

I think the best music is a blend of cultures and styles. Great music talks to you with nothing more than the music itself.

Great song....great band saw them in concert in 1975...my first concert....was amazing!!!!✌🦋

Doobie Brothers were my parents and I started liking them in the 70s

That harmonica!!!

I'm 49 and I grew up on this. These dude jam. And yes doobie means what you think it means😂.

Priceless reaction.

Just love love love the Doobie Brothers & it’s great to see a young person enjoying it! 💕👍

Joy. U gave joy. Man did the Doobies MOVE my soul...in the seventies and still. To see u groove to it likewise was splendid😄

Bass player Tiran Porter is a HUGE part of their sound. He just lays it down!

Listen to BLACK WATER

Well, that was fun to watch. 👍🏻 I am 61 and saw Doobie Brothers 7-8 times in the 70s and early 80s. They always put on a great show. Having a percussionist and a drummer, 3 guys singing, so many guitars, and keyboards made for very entertaining shows. I prefer the pre-Michael McDonald years, but I think it’s mostly a function of my age and at what point I began listening to them. If I am the tie-breaker, my vote is for China Grove. I enjoyed seeing the authentic you enjoy this song so much, your reaction was much like my friends and me when we first heard the Doobies. This one is going in my folder of Exceptional Reaction Videos. Thank you!

I was in High School so brings back memories. Great reaction. Try Black Water. Man, they are all good. I loved that you liked the harmonica. ❤️

China Grove and Blackwater......gotta check them out next. Love the Doobie Brothers

This is prime early Doobies. Also Black Water and Listen To The Music. 👍

Its message stays the same for those who lived it ❤✌️

Well more years than I hate to admit it go when I was a young man of 18 I was in San Antonio Texas in the Air Force and to Doobie Brothers gave a free outdoor open-air concert for the military guys so I went ahead and went to that concert and you think this song is good listening to it like you are now an open-air concert when you can be staying in like a foot in front of those badass amplifiers here in that music smack you full on ooh best thing in the world is an open-air concert where you get ride up close to the performers it was really great stuff.

I have a strange memory of this song. I was in England at a party given by Boy George. The DJ was playing a re-mix of this. We were all jamming and dancing. A guy dressed like a genie kept jumping on stage. The DJ finally pushed him off stage. At the time this was recorded they were the Bay Area's own. I love both Tom Johnston and Michael McDonald versions.

Possibly my favorite Doobie song...it’s got that whole 70’s vibe goin on♥️#DoobieBrosDoinIt

One of my favorite Doobie songs! Thanks for checking it out!

lol Your reaction made me so happy. Anyone that can sit and listen to this music without moving, doesn't get it. YOU GOT IT! woohoo!

LED ZEPPELIN loved this song so much, they took it and created their own arrangement, changing the lyrics as well. Please do a reaction to TRAMPLED UNDER FOOT, by Led Zeppelin! You'll DIG IT!! Long Train Runnin' is talking about trains, while Trampled Under Foot is talking about cars. The title refers to the accelerator pedal being "trampled under foot". Long Train Runnin' has the hook "Without Love", while Trampled Under Foot has the hook "Talkin' 'bout Love". Looking forward to your reaction on that one! Peace!

The Doobie Brothers are GREAT! You should do I Keep Forgetting. They’re great live too.

Please try "Can't You See" by- The Marshall Tucker Band. If you like the Doobie Brothers, you will probably like this band, especially this song.

Yes... Michael McDonald(who's phenomenal and had a great solo career too) was the lead singer for a while (they've had 3 leads I believe), but not on this song. Tom Johnston did this one. Your reactions are fantastic!!!!!! MUST check out some of their other BIG hits: "Black Water", "China Grove" , "Listen to the Music", "Jesus is Just Alright"....If you liked this, than those will be right up your alley! Can't go wrong with the Doobie Brothers! Great reactions from a great human..... keep' em coming!

#NoLimitNation Twon ✊. Great Tune Great Band!

- *Twon Pulled out Cell on Jackson 5* 🙌😂😂❤️

Just when you think the song is about to end, they start to jammin'
