FIRST Reaction to Van Morrison - Tupelo Honey 

Tupelo honey is one of the rarest honeys in the world, and for centuries, it was an under-the-radar delicacy found in some regions of swamps and waters in Georgia and Florida, where the white Ogeechee tupelo tree blooms for just a tiny period. Real Tubelo has a slight golden-greenish color and has a touch of a cinnamon, sweet flower taste.

Van was the Man!😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

The Astral Weeks record is one of the most influential albums in history

Van Morrison's recording career spans nearly seven decades. He is is a Northern Irish singer-songwriter & can play guitar, harmonica, keyboards & saxophone. In the mid 60's he was in the band "THEM" & their biggest hits were "Gloria", "Baby Please Don't Go", "Here Comes The Night" & "Mystic Eyes". Van Morrison later went solo & has had tons of hits such as "Brown Eyed Girl", "It Stoned Me", "Into The Mystic", "Moondance", "Crazy Love", "Jackie Wilson Said", "Days Like This" etc.

You can never go wrong with Van Morrison... and early Van Morrison (like this song, from 1971) is some of the best music... well, ever! 👍😎

Tupelo honey is from a place in the south where the honey is famously sweet and of the best quality.

"Into The Mystic", and "Moondance" are two of my absolute favorites from Van!

I'm sure that take was done all at once. The band and the singer in the same room at the same time just doing the song.

Van Morrison has been one of my favorite singers from the first time I heard him.

Van Morrison's Moondance is a must-hear, Sabina. Great reaction!

Veedon Fleece and Astral Weeks his best creative output

Love your facial reactions to this. You get it. Delve deeper into Mr. morrison, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Two other songs from this same album that are true standouts (like Tupelo Honey) are the songs *Wild Night* and "You're My Woman" 👍

In the nine songs on "Tupelo Honey", Van Morrison sings almost exclusively the hymn of love to his then wife Janet Planet in 1971. In the process, he created some of his most beautiful compositions: In addition to the sweet title song and the ballads "You're My Woman" and "Old Old Woodstock", the rhythm & bluesy songs "Starting A New Life" and "(Straight To Your Heart) Like A Cannonball". Another highlight is the storming "Wild Night", one of Morrison's few US single successes.

Van Morrison is the master in a class by himself.

My absolute favorite song of his. When this tune played on the radio you couldn't help but get enveloped by it no matter what mood you were in, kinda like honey.

You nailed it. Van is (for many decades now of his music) always authentic. And that is its power.

Love the written comments vs pausing and talking them. Refreshing. New sub.

Tupelo honey, the LP, is by far my favorite album of his! Uplifting and powerful.

when I first experienced Van Morrison it was with Tupelo Honey...best experience and introduction to an artist...just saying:)

I saw Van perform in a night club in 1981. The Inn of the Beginning in Cotati, California. Maybe a 150 of us crammed into the room on a hot summer night. Charged. Intense. Perfect. By the way, I could watch you all day. Thank you.

The great Irish singer/songwriter Van Morrison. I remember when he and his first Band "Them," had their first hit song (Gloria) back in 1965. I was 9 yrs. old The rest is History, with "Brown Eyed Girl," "Moondance," "Wild Night" and so many more. So much soul in this man.

60's early 70's music. Listening to the radio, records, everything was whatever you wanted.

Por cierto, felicidades... tía.

Wow very smooth n swaying Loves it...😎❣️

78 still fabulous still touring still grumpy. . Had one hell of a go at the Government for not allowing audiences the chance to see him in lockdown.. he even wrote songs about it 😆 🤣 😂 😅

I loved your reaction, Van Morrison is great too from time to time. I think the first time I heard that was in 1974. I always thought the honey came from Tupelo Mississippi. As I got older, I started wondering if he was talking about the sensual sense of the word.

Thank you my beautiful danish princess. Your beautiful on the outside and inside. Wintersun Alex USA 🌹❤️🫶❄️

Your soul shows through young lady. There is a lot behind your eyes.

Oh me, oh my, what another classic.👍😃

Toda una leyenda. ¿Quien no ha escuchado Days Like This? Tiene un recopilatorio de éxitos del 2022 altamente recomendable. Este hombre ha cantado una variedad ámplia de estilos entre los que predomina el blues. Un personaje muy polifacético musicalmente hablando y con una voz inimitable. Nunca fue un favorito de mis gustos musicales aunque no dejo de reconocer que es uno de los grandes de antaño.

Definitely a legend

❤

Tupelo, Mississippi

Energetic melancholy indeed.

Thanks!

yup, great tune.. Appreciate the notes on screen, instead of the interruption and talking. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

I feel like it's a song about freedom in the American south. tupelo honey = sweet freedom :)

U can only hope that turn into Tupelo honey

Thank you so much!!!

I think vanMorrison was singing about you. He is Great. Thank you ❤🎉

Hey look at that T-shirt. You’re awesome 🤘🏻💥🔥🙏🏻💯

Beautiful voice

The Belfast, cowboy, as he was known then

Van was notoriously moody. I went to see him in concert ( it was brilliant ) but he came on in a long black coat and big black hat, never took them off and never spoke a word all night. He didn’t introduce any of his songs so if you didn’t know his catalogue you were stuffed!!!!

Tupelo is close to where Elvis was born.. I'm British and never tasted Tupelo Honey.. but its supposed to be one of the best in the world, like Manuka honey is

Sabina another great reaction once again. Your new subscriber wintersun Alex usa. 🫶❄️
