@CSM100MK2 Will you find a song that sounds like The Midnight on the top 40s hits? Probably not, but pop in any random VHS tape, especially a sci-fi adventure or about teenagers, and there this sound is in soundtrack. This dreamy synthwave sound was UBIQUITOUS in movies and television shows. What The Midnight is doing is center-staging a sound that, if it were an actor, it was the one that never got its big break as the star but it was in supporting cast or background of everything. As an actual 80s kid, their sound hits very true to me.
💗I wanna live in a never-ending 80s synth-wave Miami where the beach, the buildings, the roads, the palm trees are lit by neon light under an eternal setting neon sun. It’s always midnight and the sound of arcade machines are filling the air.💗
"Sunset" is my fav song of The Midnight and Whitney is my fav female singer of all time. I keep coming back for her voice and that synth guitar solo and snares!
Love this. I was a DJ in the eighties and this song was requested all the time. I've become a big The Midnight fan in the last few years and this is such a fantastic mix of the two. As we said back then, this is "totally awesome."
@@WhittakerEntertainment Came across this one again while browsing my history. Thank you for the wonderful mix. Still love it! RIP Whitney. Thank you for all the memories
You kept the magic of the original and framed her iconic voice while adding your own distinctive sound. Best remix I have heard. Massive fan of The Midnight.
Never in a million years would I have considered putting these two together...but you did it, and it's magical. Combining the artists of the past and present to create a blissful future, what could be more Synthwave than that? Cheers to you, bro.
I have been listening to this almost daily for a year and have had it saved in my music playlist and it's still one of the best mashups I've EVER heard in my life.
Just discovered this mashup. It’s like these two songs were made for each other. And just when I thought I was full of ecstasy, you made that key change happen and I screamed in my car and my jaw dropped for 30 seconds straight
It's like seeing a family of several generations together in 1 photo :) And everyone's happy. So am I :) Wish you all lots of Love and lots of dancing in the Sunset! See you later in the 80's, my dear people!
The marriage of these two songs is outstanding work by you, I really reeeeeallly dig it because I'm a huge fan of the original two songs. With these combined, you really showcase your talent and highlight the brilliance of Whitney and The Midnight. It's like the fusion of the classic and the modern tribute to an era.
This is absolutely brilliant! I am intimately familiar with The Midnight song that this is based on since I absolutely love his work. So when the song started I was waiting for the opening vocals of the original song but then when Whitney Houston started singing I realized, man, this is going to be great, and it was.
8 Years later, Whitney Houston, the World Certainly feels vastly empty without your presence, indeed your everlasting legacy will continue to live on in the Hearts & Souls of those who Cherished your Life and Music from such a missed decade of the 80s onwards. Your Light will Forever Remain Shining for many Years to come and will never Blow Out. See you at the Crossroads including your Beloved Daughter (Bobbi Kristina 1993 - 2015). 1963 - 2012 - We Will Always Dance with You 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
If you going to mess with two great songs for a mashup it must this good!!!!!.....welcome mate!!! Weldone....the blend just works, Whitney and The Midnight will be very proud of you!!!!
@jakewhittaker What you've done is very special - you're literally enabling people to relate across generations. This is one of my parents favorite songs, but I never "got" it... until now. Don't know if I should hate you or love you 😂 I've shared this with them, they're gonna love it.
great work,the sunset instrumental is really good for mashups, but this is outstanding! the pitch shift harmonize at the end is really funny.....love this...subscribed!
