@@RickyRegal. it's def up there with my favorites....that's the problem with this album, I would understand an argument that any song off the album is someone's favorite🤣
Facts, it has radio appeal and isn’t watered down for big music fans and even people who study music. Does so many amazing things throughout the duration
SOTY, Put On A Smile is just so incredible. The vocals are so emotional, the harmonies amazing as always, the lyrics work really well, and I just can’t get enough of this song. Amazing
There are 2 kind of people in the world: 1 - The ones who believe that "After Last Night" is the best song on the album 2 - The ones who believe that "Put on a Smile" is the best song on the album We know exactly what differs one from another lol.
Bruno called in Babyface to help nail down the heart in this song. Can you beat Bruno and Babyface?! Also Bruno has (early 2020) signed with Disney to do a musical film. He'll be writing, directing, acting, singing etc.
I love how people are praising Bruno’s vocals but Anderson’s are fucking so great, I love how unique his voice sounds, fucking mind blowing how great they sound together.
Sliding out of the chair with you. The song's words and vocals between Anderson and Bruno are out of this world. The background singers and the musical arrangement are off the hook! My whole inside with wild. Silk Sonic should smile all the way to the Grammys and don't look back! BEST SONG EVER!
The crazy part is that Blast Off isn’t even in my top 5, and it’s still a 9.5/10. What an insane album. Idk if it competes with After Hours for me simply due to emotional attachment, but wow this album is incredible
This album is so great that I won’t argue with anyone on their favorite track cause they’re all so perfect. Personally, I can’t stop listening to After Last Night, Leave The Door Open, Put On A Smile and Blast Off
@@aesthetic4829 After Last Night and Put On A Smile are so crazy, along with Smokin Out The Window! I mean all the tracks are crazy, but ESPECIALLY those 3
You do not want to be listening to this on a rainy night staring out the window ., and thinking about that person you may have just lost forever And I can actually see that image in my mind.... it's that hard of a drop ... only this time it feels like it's right off the edge of a cliff because of the way it makes you feel inside. This song has all the feels and then some. Any person who can listen to this without any kind of emotional response no longer has a soul.... they're already empty
If someone told me that this was a cover from a song in the mid 70s, I would believe them. They captured the sound perfectly from that era in this song. Can’t wait for them to perform this live
@@sallycriss353 yessss someone recapped it it was something like 1st song: introduction 2: laying your eyes on a girl 3: when you are going out trying to seal the deal 4: the morning after 5: hurtfull talking smack about the girl 6: trying to get back on your feet, put on a smile 7: now we in Vegas spending money baby 8: falling again, now somewhat wiser
This is my favorite track on the whole album..brings me back to Bobby Womack and Donny Hathaway songs...just beautiful old soul and R&B! This has to be the collaboration of the decade~ Anderson is a beast on the drums. The paradiddles where Andy goes from 12 strokes to triplets is what this piece needed and the drum rolls were otherworldly. Enjoyed your reaction immensely! Keep on pluggin' away to 300,00 Subs man!
Keep coming back to your reaction, Can’t get over this song. Bruno’s voice is not to be matched. His Sydney concert is unbelievable. His voice live is spectacular.
Such a well done piece of artistry. The lead vocals are truly masterful. Anderson .Paak's voice is so intense and just perfect here. Bruno Mars vocals don't fail to keep me enthralled. And those harmonies! Damn, yeah to me, this song is worthy of SOTY. But then I could see it actually running against another song on this album. Beautiful vocals and Anderson just killing it on drums! Perfection!
"Put On a Smile" songwriters: Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, D'Mile, and Babyface Producers: Bruno Mars & D'Mile Vocals, guitar, percussion: Bruno Mars Vocals, drums: Anderson .Paak Bass, piano, percussion, backing vocals: D'Mile Backing vocals: Babyface Bruno's vocals on this were insane!!!
I agree, but also, I would probably need extra therapy after that. The emotions after just hearing it are sometimes too much to handle, not sure I could make it through the video. It's just surreal how flawless this track is.
@@peanutforever2191 It would have to be very well done as emotionally charged love and the loss of it, so that I would want to cry each time watching it. Bruno is excellent at that kind of thing. But with Anderson, it would be double the talent.
the thing i love about put on a smile is at the end when bruno hits those notes it feels like there's a break in it intentionally so it sounds like a cry, a cry for help, a wail, it's so jarring and beautiful to listen to.
Gives me Tower of Power; So Very Hard To Go vibes for sure. Like others here, I was blessed to grow up in the 70s/80s. This album is like home; house parties parents hosted, weekend BBQs, car club cruising, moms putting on false lashes getting ready for dance, platforms, wide wing collars and Old Spice. Thank you Silk Sonic 💕
Thanks for your great reaction. This song is the best, so unique. Your Oh my God... is just like what am sayin' when I listened this song on repeat, can't get over this. Love love it...
This song is awesome. My 4 favorite off the album is Smokin out the Window, After Last Night, Put on a Smile, and Leave the Door Open. (Honorable mention is Fly as Me). They're all tied cause I can't pick just one. 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
This was the first song on my YT feed after the release, have been listening to this song only. I have not heard the other new ones, that is how epic this song is!
This album was made during the pandemic.. they were not pressured to produce hits because the last time they released their last album was x years ago or anything like that… bruno mars and .paak just jammed. This was organically created outta luv know what im sayin??? That’s why its so flawless... its a celebration of two men of the music that they grew up on / influenced them as human beings references: Ebro and Elvis Duran Silk sonic interviews :)
.Paak is bringing this song JUST like he's Eddie Levert from The O'Jays; this is the BEST SONG on an album with nothing but bangers. Unbelievable but true.
im in love with this song since the first time i listened to it. plus, their vocals are just.. idk it brings so much feels. and the ways bruno sang the chorus is just, i feel desperate along with the lyrics
Omg!😂On Sat mornings, when Mama said 'time to play the music', I knew my day was gonna be filled with cleaning!🤣Everything from windows to base boards! Kids today just don't know! 😂
Silk Sonic giving bringing back that timeless old school R&B/Soul vibe and as a 80's baby whose parents brought me up on this type of music I am totally here for it!
Bruh this album is such an amazing throwback to Motown and oldies... As someone who's grown up with family listening to this, this album is easily one of the greatest of this generation... I mean it's so Bruno and paak yet the style is so old school... Love it...🔥🔥
Yeah man, your love for music is amazing. I think I can speak for others here, we are feeling what you feel. Love your reactions. Genuine, and comes from a large heart and an artistic mind. You are a great person and I love what you do
Do you know the more I listen to soak Sonic the more I love Anderson paak on my list to do is go down the rabbit hole of his work because so far all I've heard is his performances with silk Sonic❤❤❤❤ he is a by ball himself and I want to see more❤❤❤❤
I think everyone here has missed something huge.....If you've seen the show live in Vegas ( I amazingly and gratefully have had the honor of seeing them twice at the Park Mgm) you would know that how when our boy here, 3rdErnest, talked about his "Vision" for a Video for this song, he totally nailed it. When they perform this 15 minute extendo jam live it's got the rain, 3 of them sitting in a dark theatre, sad as shit, with a rainy background singing their asses off. I'm a 777 guy but when they performed this live it became my top 1 or 2 song.....But then you have that amazing intro/jam live, Blast Off, Fly as Me, Smokin & Skatin &.....................& I'm just trying to "Put on a Smile" that Silk Sonic plays live again cause please!!! Buy a Ticket, Seriously! You need to see them live!
I’m thinkin’ that rather than this album being comical it’s more of a homage to great music! I know they worked hard on this collaborative! I just love it!
