Looking back now being 64. I was so blessed to have grown up in the 70's!!!!! So many young reactionaries wanted to have that experience too!!!!!! You for one! Great reaction, Britt! Get well soon!🙏🙏
Love Gerry Rafferty! Have this album, it's fantastic!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. His voice is so smooth!!!!! The sax in Baker Street is outstanding!!!! Suggest doing that next!❤
Love this song. In 1972 Gerry Rafferty was in the Scottish folk rock band Stealers Wheel & had a big hit with "Stuck In The Middle With You". Later on, he went out on his own & then had the big hits "Baker's Street", "Right Down The Line" & "Night Owl".
This song always reminds me of my wife Sonia, who suddenly passed away November 10th 2021. I would always sing it to her when I played it the car. She loved it too.❤️
@@AlanRaffertySorry but you're both wrong, it's the first best song on the album lol. I've had this song as my ringtone for like the past 10 years I love it so much 🥇
❤️🔥 oh my goodness one of my all time faves, so underrated so beautiful, love how you groove to it! When those my harmonies open up and during bridge section, my heart melts. Also love the bass!
Well..after 4 days of night shift here at my Delta 4 Camp Base where I´m stationed it was a pleasant surprise to hear this song reacted by Britt, when I requested this I never thought she would play it to be honest. It reminded me back in the late 70s being a kid and burning my fingers on those numbers phones dialing the request line of Y95 Tampa Bay my hometown to request this song. Watching Britt´s reaction through many 70s song in her channel I am positive 100% she would have loved to grow up in those 70s like many of us did from kids to teens...eventhough there were no internet no cell phones...OMG...but we had the time of our lives...she recently reacts to Archie Bunker, that was a sitcom very popular and I recall coming home from school with my bike long tube socks from sears...vintage baseball raglan tees and my Dad watching ARCHIE or Three´s Company. Anyhow Britt I wnat to thank you for playing my request, and eventhough it´s not good times for us here we are proud of serving the US Marines Corp. And let me send a warm nice cheers to all folks in your channel. Thanx you Rock!
Britt, Loved your reaction! A Classic Rock singer, Gerry Rafferty a very under rated singer. I would like to suggest "Baker Street". I think you would really like. It has a very nice saxophone intro and in-between, along with a chilling vibe.
So many songs in the 70's and 80's (most of them) were about being in love, looking for love, staying in love, losing love, hoping for love, how much I love you, and more. These were positive songs or songs about hope. Compare this to the songs that have been coming out for the past 20 years or more. This is why the older generation has a more positive outlook. That was part of our culture.
Memories of my childhood and my first girlfriend. This in Baker Street or on the radio a lot and it was just so easy to listen to and feel good with. Even though people would be into harder stuff or different stuff, it was just easy to like Gerry Rafferty. Love your animated interpretation, laugh. I love doing that with friends and partners, just kind of put some music on and act it out and be funny and get down to it and all that. ❤
The 70's music was the best for my generation, I was in my PRIME! 21 - 30 years old. Blaring the radio driving to and from work, later joing the Air Force, then eventually getting married and raising a family. It only got harder, and there was way less time with radio and playing my records. It was all about the kids and eventually the grand kids. Time passes, lives change, music changes and we find new music. But the stuff from our "prime" years are what really sticks with us.
Gerry was the singer with Stealers Wheel on the song Stuck in the Middle With You. Worth a listen. Also, you really need to hear 10cc, I'm Not in Love. 70s classic!
One of my favorite recording Artist of 1978. This is one of those songs that are absolutely timeless... In another words, no matter how many times I hear this song, it sounds as good as the first time I heard it.
It’s cool seeing so many youngins reacting to these timeless classics. Being 57 I was just old enough to know I was hearing gold. This single and others like it were flooding the airwaves back then. Imagine a time in history when car stereos had 8-track players, moms drove station wagons with CB radios ,TVs only had a max of four stations and only the forth station if we had our young sister or bother wrapped in tinfoil holding the antenna. We can’t bring back the 70s but we can keep the classics alive. Groovy job! Aloha
Awesome Brit. As you know I watch many channels that support Angelina Jordan and that's how I cam across you. I must say though that you are a Channel I watch more frequently because your just you and comfortable in front of the cam. I am always engaged entertained , and excited to see where it's going to take you and where you take us. I was 15 when this puppy dropped on the scene. You are not wrong the Seveties were pretty special. Sure 😢 do miss them LOL . Keep it up and I will keep cherry 🍒 picking. I particularly like when you react to bands that I have seen. MY very first real concert was an out of town by train on my own to another city where u attended a Beach Boys concert 1974. I was 11 and my 14 year old cousin came with from a different town but close enough we stayed there. My mom was big on music and it played everyday in our house. The concert was my 11th Birthday Present 🎁 and never forgotten. I was in my own clubbing band at 20. I am 61 and still play guitar everyday.. I have seen pop to classic, country to metal.lots and lots of concerts.. All my kids adults bow play something. I am off toa concert this Saturday (Punk) Daughter is a bass player in one of the bands that does all originals . Bluesfingers1("The Music of Everything ")
High School memories... amazing that certain songs of the past can place me back places visually and a time of when I would listen to it back then, Wow!
The great Gerry Rafferty. My favourite singer / songwriter. He has a huge catalogue of wonderful songs. Most always reference Baker Street, and whilst it is certainly a masterpiece & the one he’s known best for, songs such as Whatever’s written in your Heart, Don’t Speak of My Heart, The Royal Mile, Light of Love, A Dangerous Age, Winters Come, Family Tree & the utterly fantastic Shipyard Town are just a few other masterpieces of which many are based on Gerry’s own life experiences. A true musical genius. RIP Sir. I salute you.
This song is really beautiful! I've loved it since I first heard it on the radio way back in the 70s! But to me his hit, Baker Street is dyn-o-mite!!! 🧨🧨🧨
God bless you, girl!! I've been getting depressed, watching younger people react to my childhood SOUNDTRACK. You gave it some hope again, after tonight's reaction to this video. TRULY!! ❤ I am now a new subscriber & hopefully stay that way, as I continue down your journey of old music turned GREAT AGAIN! Thank you, love... here's hoping for more great music on your PLATE. Hugs, from Mesa, AZ 🌵
Really enjoyed watching your reactions to the same parts of the song that blew me away. At 61, it’s great watching someone the same age as my children enjoy this timeless classic. Artist recommendation: Burton Cummings. Song: “I Will Play a Rhapsody”.

One of the best thing about the mid to late 70's was that you had choices for so much good music to fit your mood. You had this that was Adult Oriented/Middle Of The Road/Contemporary Rock and then you had the rock/hard rock/progressive stations and a lot of us bounced back and forth between them and a lot of us were fans of most all of the rock music. In my collection in the late 70's you would dind Zeppelin/The Cars/Gerry Rafferty/Al Stewart/Pink Floyd/Foreigner/Pablo Cruise/Ambrosia/Yes/ELP/The Police//Allman Brothers/Alan Parsons Project/Kanasa and too many more to list.
Should check out Glasgows musicians Gerry Rafferty paolo nutini fratellis Travis Amy macdonald primal scream Decon blue Gerry cinnamon lulu franz ferdinand ultravox chvrches videos many more 🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
BAKER STREET! Instrumental. 💜 Will do something for you. Great song. Just puts me in a good place, driving in my car on a gorgeous day. Stuck in the middle with you is another good one. Of course, love Right Down the Line - I think I was right out of high school, yes 1978 - for this song and also Baker Street.
Heya Britt, new subscriber here. Been going through your catalog. I gotta say, you'd have fit in well with us in the 70's. I was a musician that played a lot of these songs you cover in nightclubs. Just something about you that is infectious, I'd expand an elaborate but it would be inappropriate considering your married with kids. But DAMN girl. I'm sure we'd have the wild child in you goin' crazy. It was such a fun time. I noticed you covered Don McLean, do yourself a favor and listen to Roberta Flack's cover a song written about Don McLean by Lori Lieberman. Imagine Don McLean playing "Vincent" while Roberta sings "Killing Me Softly". Roberta won her 2nd grammy performing it, you won't be disappointed. I feel i can get a sense of what you like having watched a few of your videos so I'll also drop another for you "In the Summer Time" by Mungo Jerry. That song encapsulates what free wheelin' 70's vibes were all about. Peace!
Awe, my favorite of his songs. It’s a banger 😉 Whatever’s Written in Your Heart is sweet one. Most people like Bakers Street the best but I’m not big on the gratuitous sax 🥸
This album (City to City, 1978) was fire. The first three tracks were a beautiful ballad titled "The Ark" followed by his biggest hit, "Baker Street", then this song (his second biggest hit). I think you would love these other two songs also. Someone .mentioned that he was in a band called Stealers Wheel in the early '70s who had a big hit with "Stuck in the Middle With You." Sadly, Rafferty suffered from major depression which he attempted to wash away with copious amounts of alcohol, a habit that ultimately led him to an early death of multi-system organ failure at the age of 63 in 2011. A sad end to a talented guy.
Then has ever body telling you he did baker Street great song great saxophone & his first group steelers wheel with stuck in the middle with you great song & get better soon britt🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, your reaction made me so happy. Lovely song from one of the most consistently great albums l know; almost all the songs are worth reacting to. For me it is chugging around south east England in my first car in the late 70s with City To City a fixture in the cassette player. Please react to more of his songs
For a real man having a woman by his side who believes in him and supports him is like winning the lotery these day's. Luckely for me i've found such woman eventhough it took me nearly 50 years to find her so this song was my song to her and i love her everyday more and more.
You can't imagine how glad I am the young people like you can hear and appreciate the music people my age enjoyed back when we were young when the dinosaurs roamed the clubs and discos.lol
