Thank you for sharing this deeply personal meaning of the song for you, Dana. I can definitely visualize this song in that context, and am deeply touched. Shedding tears of joy that she made it through.
who says music can't heal, i've shared music with my daughter for all her 27 yrs and we still bond over it. R&R HOF ,Nashville, Carter Family fold all awesome music related holidays we've shared over the years and wouldn't trade it for anything.
Joe didn't so much sing a song as deliver it in person. He was a beautiful human being who left the world a better place for him having been in it. Great song. great reaction.
Joe put every ounce of his emotion and body into his voice. agree with those below the studio version is so clean, but it's cool to see what Joe puts into his singing. All I ask is to be moved...that'll do it. Great reaction.
This song was written by Billy Preston & Bruce Fisher & was first released in 1974 on Preston’s 9th album. Joe Cocker’s version (slower) produced by Jim Price was released later that same year peaking at #5 in the U.S. 💟 BEAUTIFUL 💟 Joe Cocker born in England 1944 and died 2014 in Colorado! R.I.P. 😇
Super pretty please with whipped cream and cherries request ❣️ Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes, "Up Where We Belong", live! 🥰 This was awesome, thank you Angela. Now please pass the Kleenex. 😂
Hi again Angela ✌️ Another Joe Cocker masterpiece that it seems NOBODY has reacted to is "When the Night Comes". Be warned, it's going to get to you, but so what, you're among friends here. 👼🌹
It was written by Billy Preston and Dennis Wilson, the Beach Boys drummer, underrated singer and songwriter, who made one of the best 70s albums called Pacific Ocean Blue... he also used to sing this song live during the Beach Boys 70s tours... Joe Cocker cover is, as usual, superlative
I have no idea why it took You Tube's algorithm so long for me to find your channel. You are one of the greatest reactors I have come across. You have genuine insight into lyrics & you tap into music in a remarkable way. I am thrilled that music hits you the way it does. Congratulations. I will be seeking out every reaction you do.
quite simply he was the most amazingly gifted singer... gives the chills and the heat thump each and every times... gives you the gift from his heart thats the beauty of Joe Cocker... every time you hear him or see him he gives that gift of love to you
Joe Cocker was a stunning performer even after I have seen him many times online. He was so emotionally raw to watch and sang with his entire soul. There was no one else like Joe.
One of the absolute most iconic love songs of all time. No one cares that he can't hit that high note, its what makes this song so incredible and powerful. Now a timeless classic.
Joe Cocker .... There is no explanation for the impact his singing has with the Lyrics.... He is, like trying to explain the Rain Drops sliding down a leaf and the sound it makes when it hits the moist grass... Nothing about it should be good, but he is so captivating.... Legend!!
That's great review. Thank you. I've never heard anyone describe Joe as singing with his whole body, but that's exactly what he does. I'll tell you one thing, if this song doesn't grab you by the heart, check your pulse.
I completely agree with you, Joe sang this one from his soul and right into mine every time. He's one of those artists that you have never heard before and will never hear again. Really enjoying the channel so far, Angela. Love your passion and natural ear for music. And if it's any consolation, YOU are so beautiful. Rock on. 🤘☮️
He wrote this for his mother Some of us don't have a good relationship with our mother's I sing this song to my son as a single father, he will always be my guiding light and gift
Seems like you love these 70's artist and songs I grew up with this kind of music from my parents listening to it One of my favorites you should react to is Carole King's So far away I promise you'll love it
Love artists that put their heart & soul into their music. Saw this one recommended before, try Jim Croce "Time in a bottle", an artist that can make you cry or laugh.
Yes you are so beautiful Angela ❤️. This was my daughters' lullaby. I began singing it to her soon after we got her home and for many years after. She was about 14/15 when she first heard Joe cocker sing it. She was horrified. She wasn't used to hearing it in his style.
It's amazing sometimes that some songs are so powerfully performed and when you actually look at the lyrics, they are quite simple and direct. It's what makes it an art. The delivery.
Just as beautiful as you love. Nicest reaction ❤ i hopy it gave you some uplifting in your life. Everyone needs that little gift of Great music. To send you to heaven..you are so beautiful to me.😘🙏🥰💯
I have always loved this song. You should do Colour My World by Chicago. The studio version, so you can hear Terry Kath's voice clearly. So much soul. They called him the white Ray Charles. This was a great reaction by the way.
It was so beautiful for me as an old guy to see you melting to Joes incredibly soulful rendition like he was singing to you. And he probably was.. Best wishes. 💕
Thank you for another brilliant reaction, Ang! A few more you might want to add to your list: "The Weight" by The Band and The Staples from The Last Waltz, "Life During Wartime" by The Talking Heads from Stop Making Sense, "Heart of Gold" from Neil Young 1971, "Vincent" from Don McLean 1972 and "Battle of Evermore" by Heart, 1995! Thank you for all the great reactions you are putting out - your channel is one of my favourite destinations on RU-vid!!!
The late Great Billy Preston is credited with co writing this tune and released his version in 1974. Joe does his usual fabulous job and made it a hit. Rest in Peace Joe and Billy.
Written by the late Billy Preston. 1 of the great ballads sung by Joe Cocker. 👨🎤 Suggested next video: Edge of a Dream live. RIP Billy Preston 🎹🇺🇲 Joe Cocker. 🇬🇧
This pure blue eye soul music, and he brought it out with all the feeling and passion. This song is also know as the Camay song for Camay soap commercials.
