Yes! He's an old soul and I love that he'll listen to all kinds of music! Very well rounded and diverse in different kinds of music! I'm 53 and he is definitely a sweet young man. 🙂👍
I grew up in Detroit and everyone listened to Bob Seger. He's a Detroit man. He was fantastic in concert. One of the members of his band just recently passed away 😢.
He said "Today's music ain't got the SAME soul", which is true, but doesn't mean no soul. It's just harder to find it today, because the crap hasn't been filtered out by time yet.
You’ll be glad to know James that Bob is a real stand up guy... he took 10yrs off of music to raise his kids.. he just wanted to be a Dad and watch his kids grow!😃 I’m so lucky to have seen his last concert tour! He was so nice to the crowd! And he really Rocked the house!! Yay! Michigan!!
Military Veteran thank you sooo much for your comment. Yes, for me it was a once in a lifetime chance to see him.. and I took it!😃 btw- thank you for your service! Very much appreciated!!!😃✌️🇺🇸
This young man is on quite the musical journey. And I'm a 70 year old getting to relive my musical journey while enjoying his awakening to what he might have missed altogether without a proactive decision to investigate deeper. So, it's a Win Win situation showing the importance of music with positive moods and messages to all of us. As well as how unifying music can be versus so many attempts to keep us against each other.
Desert Storm Navy veteran here.....ty for the shout out today! Man youre jamming!!! This is one of my fave songs. It became the most popular during movie Risky Business, with Tom Cruise's shirt & underwear dance scene lolz... but overall a great song. Love ur reactions. ❤️
Your journey with Bob Seger will not be complete until you check out “Still the Same” and “Against the Wind”. Rock on dude. Thanks for appreciating the music I loved in my youth! Chris Stapleton is just at the beginning of his career and Bob has just wrapped up his last tour. Both huge singing/songwriting talents.
This song has always meant so much to me. Every time this song would come on, my Dad and I would turn it up as loud as we could. It would be simply automatic, just volume cause this song was phenomenal. He passed away 8 years ago.
Bob seger is king I saw him in concert , when he was in his sixitys and it was awesome, and I grew up with music awesome, love the awakening, God bless.
Though I've never been a big Bob Seger fan, 'Old Time Rock-n-Roll' is one of the all time great songs that was ever written. And he was born to sing it! I LOVE this song. No way you can sit still when this comes on. You're up and movin'. Love it, and your reaction! Take care.
Hey darlin just want to say thank you for mentioning Memorial Day. My father and brothers, uncles and cousins are all Navy and my son is a Marine. I will remember your family members in my prayers for our Military today.
When he was saying "today's music ain't got the same soul", he wasn't predicting future music. He recorded this about the end of the 70's disco decade and he was referring to how bad disco music was. Thankfully for many of us then, disco died shortly after he recorded this song.
James, i found your channel last night and i am glad i did..I love all the music you play...The 60's, 70's, and 80's were the best no matter what genre you play..You are such a Blessing..Your positivity is so refreshing(and i know things are so bleak right now, and i Pray that changes) and your facial expressions say it all..Thank you James..
So you have known Bob for most of your life, JB! How cool is that? So nice to see you happy and content and your face was something else when you realized you knew this song. Happy Memorial Day and bless your family for the service they are giving the country. I pray for their safe return. Thanks for the reaction..... take care and be well.
My dad always said about Tina Turner and “Proud Mary” that he had heard it so many times in his life that he couldn’t listen to it anymore. I always thought “how could that be”. But then this song came along and the next 20 years, and I soon understood. You’ve probably heard Seger in commercials. His song have been in commercials for about 30 years. Chevy commercials most prominently. Maybe people haven’t requested him until now because he’s been so ever-present in everyday life that they all assume everybody has heard of him. I’ve seen your 4 or so reactions to him so far and you definitely need to hit more. Personally, I love all the song’s you’ve done so far, but there’s probably another dozen that I like better than all of those. Seger was born to do what he does and he is still doing it, from the looks of what I see on RUclips.
That's the power of music,it can take you back in time. Also brings out emotions and feelings. Awesome keep up the Bob Seger trip lot's more out there ☮️
JB, thanks for this. I'm a classical musician but I'm also a huge Everly Brothers fan. At their concerts they used to play this song at the beginning right before they came on stage. And since the Everlys were right there at the beginning of the rock age, it was appropriate and got the audience ready for a great time!
And here you were wondering why you were so captivated by that voice. Turns out you've heard it a thousand times! I kinda figured. You need to check out "Against The Wind" next.
Bless your heart, honey, for your Memorial Day tribute. Thanks. Don’t tell me some of those boys in uniform can’t party to this song! It’s cool you like this old stuff.
Tom Cruise singing to this in Risky Business just after his parents left on vacation leaving him home alone... and was, well... was risky business. [smile]
I LOVE that you are reacting to Bob. I grew up on this music! Next rabbit hole you should venture down is Bad Company. Shooting Star and Feel like making love, are 2 of my favorites.
I so appreciate you playing Bob. I saw him many many times live. I highly suggest you listen to some of the songs on his Live Bullet double album. It is live and no bad song on it. I recommend Ramblin Gamblin Man, or the first song Nutbush City limits. You don’t know Bob until you hear him live!
And this was a last minute recording. Bob was recording some songs with Alabama session musicians called the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section. They wanted Bob to record this song that had been written by 2 other songwriters. Bob said that he rewrote all the verses but kept the chorus and they recorded it, but he didn't ask for any writing credit because he thought the song would never be a big hit. And it was just a minor hit in 1978 but it became huge after it was used in the 1983 Tom Cruise movie Risky Business.
NO .... He said today's music ain't got the same soul .........NOT ...... TODAY'S MUSIC JUST DON'T HAVE NO SOUL ... 1978 "Old Time Rock and Roll" is a song written by George Jackson and Thomas E. Jones III, with un-credited lyrics by Bob Seger. It was recorded by Seger for his 1978 album Stranger in Town. It was also released as a single in 1979. I was 23 and the music was FANTASTIC as the women and the cars rolled right along with the sound of the wind and the music back then .... What the hell happened to the world from the mid- 80 on
See, and a couple of videos back you were talking about you was SUPER surprised that there was Super great artist that you STILL hadn't reacted to or heard of!! You may not have known who he was when your Auntie was listening to then, NOW!! YOU!! KNOW!!!! Bob Segar was and will ALWAYS BE always one of the greatest ❤
Memorial day is a day of reflection for those who gave their lives while serving their country. It's a day to take the kids to the cemetery with a bouquet of flowers and tell the kids about their grandfather who served in WW2 or Vietnam. Show them the places where the veterans who have died have flags flying in their honor. Show them those who died in Iraq and other far off lands. Tell them stories if you were told of great grandfathers in WW1. And this year we are also taking this day to remember the almost 99,000 Americans who have fallen to this year's plague. And if you can't get to the cemetery, at least raise a glass at your cookouts to those heroes we honor today. Love the song.
Liking this so much you would thoroughly enjoy music by Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. Here are those jammin ’ songs, We’re Having a Party, Talk to Me, This Time it’s For Real and more!
This played constantly in the small town seedy dark bars. The smell of stale beer and cigarettes while shooting pool. Skimming the bar to see who your gonna hook up with◉‿◉. My goodness. Bob
Trust us honey, it's SEE-ger. Don't let yourself get in the habit of saying "Say-ger". That's not it! Love the background, you're out in the cosmos. Dr. Brian May would approve!💙
Lol! I played this CD everyday taking my kids to school and I always hit this song and Hollywood Nights! Drove my kids nuts! Lol. I always said, this was good music girls, music today sucks! 😂😂😂. You need to do HOLLYWOOD NIGHTS.... awesome song! 😊

I'm 72 years old. I get a kick out of this young man responding to my generations music. He's so soft spoken
TheSarahbeach100 I’m 54 and I think of Bob Seger as my generation.isn’t great how music can bring generations together?😃✌️
I'm 55 and I feel the same way. Just watching him discover the awesome music we know makes my day!
im 58 1/2 lol and i feel the exact same way!
I'm 64, and still love this ageless music
Yes! He's an old soul and I love that he'll listen to all kinds of music! Very well rounded and diverse in different kinds of music! I'm 53 and he is definitely a sweet young man. 🙂👍
I grew up in Detroit and everyone listened to Bob Seger. He's a Detroit man. He was fantastic in concert. One of the members of his band just recently passed away 😢.
I’m 69 years old. I grew up on this music. It makes me very happy to see a young generation discovering real music.
He said "Today's music ain't got the SAME soul", which is true, but doesn't mean no soul. It's just harder to find it today, because the crap hasn't been filtered out by time yet.
Your family has great taste in music
You’ll be glad to know James that Bob is a real stand up guy... he took 10yrs off of music to raise his kids.. he just wanted to be a Dad and watch his kids grow!😃 I’m so lucky to have seen his last concert tour! He was so nice to the crowd! And he really Rocked the house!! Yay! Michigan!!
HOW COOL is THAT! 😎 👍
I'm SO Jealous (SURE WISH i could've seen BOB SEGER Live)! 🎵 🎸
Military Veteran thank you sooo much for your comment. Yes, for me it was a once in a lifetime chance to see him.. and I took it!😃 btw- thank you for your service! Very much appreciated!!!😃✌️🇺🇸
Who could not like this song? It’s makes you want to dance and have fun.
Me. (Reminds me of my brother's awful AC/DC records he had in the early 1980s.)
This young man is on quite the musical journey. And I'm a 70 year old getting to relive my musical journey while enjoying his awakening to what he might have missed altogether without a proactive decision to investigate deeper. So, it's a Win Win situation showing the importance of music with positive moods and messages to all of us. As well as how unifying music can be versus so many attempts to keep us against each other.
Love how you react to to this talented guy. I am 75 and he still makes me want to dance and enjoy.
Desert Storm Navy veteran here.....ty for the shout out today! Man youre jamming!!! This is one of my fave songs. It became the most popular during movie Risky Business, with Tom Cruise's shirt & underwear dance scene lolz... but overall a great song. Love ur reactions. ❤️
He sang: "I reminisce about the days of old" and that's exactly what you were doing looking back at when your aunt would play this song !
Your journey with Bob Seger will not be complete until you check out “Still the Same” and “Against the Wind”. Rock on dude. Thanks for appreciating the music I loved in my youth! Chris Stapleton is just at the beginning of his career and Bob has just wrapped up his last tour. Both huge singing/songwriting talents.
This song could be your Personal Anthem! It's as if your reactions to Classic Rock inspired Seger to write this.
This song has always meant so much to me. Every time this song would come on, my Dad and I would turn it up as loud as we could. It would be simply automatic, just volume cause this song was phenomenal. He passed away 8 years ago.
Bob Seger is one of the greats!!! Love your reactions.
Bob Seger is G.O.A.T
!Michigan proud!
This song was released in 1978 so old time rock 'n' roll refers to 50s and 60s music but the message is still current.
Thanks for cheering up my heart. I don’t have a lot to cheer about these days but watching you react to these songs really cheers me up
"I didn't know this was Bob!" My children grew up on "Uncle Bob" 🎧👏
I forgot how much I enjoy his music. Thanks for the reminder.
Every time I hear this song, I visualize Tom Cruise sliding across the floor in his underwear in the movie Risky Business..
Bob seger is king I saw him in concert , when he was in his sixitys and it was awesome, and I grew up with music awesome, love the awakening, God bless.
I WAS 35 YEARS AIR FORCE JB :) R.I.P TO THOSE WHO GAVE THE ULTIMATE :( , AND THANKS FOR DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING
Though I've never been a big Bob Seger fan, 'Old Time Rock-n-Roll' is one of the all time great songs that was ever written. And he was born to sing it! I LOVE this song. No way you can sit still when this comes on. You're up and movin'. Love it, and your reaction! Take care.
play anything by seger and you won't be disappointed.
Boldly claiming the title of "relic" and that I am "over the hill." Nothing today can hold a candle to old time rock and roll. Seger is a God!
Hey darlin just want to say thank you for mentioning Memorial Day. My father and brothers, uncles and cousins are all Navy and my son is a Marine. I will remember your family members in my prayers for our Military today.
One of my favorites!! I love to roll the windows down and blast this on my car radio! ❤️☺️

This is one of my top 10 songs of all time. One that can never be played loud enough.
I, too, am 72 and I love this young man.
love your reaction when it's one you heard before and you loved it then...
Certain songs take you back to a time and place. You can even remember what you wearing.
Tom Cruise in "Risky Business" Niles in The Nanny, and I think Kevin in home alone. they've all danced to this in their undies.
Don't Forget Alf

You do seem so much happier! Love it!
Plenty of soul out there in today’s music, just search for it you will find it. Usually not on mainstream.
That's the power of music,it can take you back in time. Also brings out emotions and feelings. Awesome keep up the Bob Seger trip lot's more out there ☮️
JB, thanks for this. I'm a classical musician but I'm also a huge Everly Brothers fan. At their concerts they used to play this song at the beginning right before they came on stage. And since the Everlys were right there at the beginning of the rock age, it was appropriate and got the audience ready for a great time!
He can do any type of song....and tell a story,too.Keep this good world up for yourself.
i love your reactions!!! youre so sweet!!! i just love you!!!
Love Bob Seger!!! You should watch him live on "Roll me away"....or pretty much any song he sings:) He is so good
Great song that just makes you want to move! And who doesn’t smile seeing you enjoy this stuff and that big grin on your face 😊
This is my ring tone. Everytime it rings, people want to jam. My favorite song.
He said "today's music don't have the same soul."
Like a Rock
I just love your reactions. I feel the same way and I’m 57. I loved the 80’s music so much. Keep your great love of music. It will save your life ♥️
You're missing "Hollywood Nights" and "Against the Wind."
You’re a great reactor and person. God bless you and those you love.
Oddly enough, I've listened to this song most of my life and loved it but didn't have a clue it was Seger. Wow!!!
And here you were wondering why you were so captivated by that voice. Turns out you've heard it a thousand times! I kinda figured. You need to check out "Against The Wind" next.
I'd love to see a Bob Seger / Chris Stapleton Project !!
WOOOO !! That'd be some serious JAMS !!
He’s still touring (well he was)... see him if you can - he can still rock it! Great reaction!
Love to see you jammin out on memorial day❤️😇👏😚
This got me up and dancing. Thank you.
Bless your heart, honey, for your Memorial Day tribute. Thanks. Don’t tell me some of those boys in uniform can’t party to this song! It’s cool you like this old stuff.
I have an eargasm every time I hear Bob Seger ...
Love this song! I love it when you are so surprised!
One of my favorite tunes fro Bob!
I'm so happy to hear your memories. That's what music can do. Bring everyone together.
Be happy James. Love your background ⭐️☺️🤩
Bob Seager Like A Rock! Another great one.
Tom Cruise singing to this in Risky Business just after his parents left on vacation leaving him home alone... and was, well... was risky business. [smile]

When my sons inherited my vinyl collection I hope they say Damn Mom was cool!
I don't know how old you are, but you're a very mature young man and I find that so refreshing!
I so appreciate you playing Bob. I saw him many many times live. I highly suggest you listen to some of the songs on his Live Bullet double album. It is live and no bad song on it. I recommend Ramblin Gamblin Man, or the first song Nutbush City limits. You don’t know Bob until you hear him live!

I was pretty sure you would like this song !!!1
My favorite part is where it's just the percussion and his voice....
I'm so happy you are taking this journey!!! God bless you.and yours.
Danced to this all the time!
This played constantly in the small town seedy dark bars. The smell of stale beer and cigarettes while shooting pool. Skimming the bar to see who your gonna hook up with◉‿◉. My goodness. Bob
So much meaning in his music
A fabulous volume of work.
God bless you jb.
Trust us honey, it's SEE-ger. Don't let yourself get in the habit of saying "Say-ger". That's not it!
