Cynthia Anderson I'm a 64 yr old white Scottish woman , I loved that song so I can understand why your husband likes it , hope it's a long time before you have to play it at his funeral though 😳 these young men are amazing , just stumbled across them 3days ago !! & i'm hooked , love their channel ! ❤🤍💙👍😁😍😎
One important thing that I hope the younger generation understands about Boston and much of the classic rock sound is that it was developed before the digital age. You couldn't just dial in a sound. Most bands built or modified their own equipment and manually created multi-track sounds on tape. Tom Scholz was a pioneer in the multi-layered sound of classic rock.
@@droid1963 Correct! You may already know, Les Paul was Steve Millers godfather..... encouraged his talent from a very young age. Fly Like An Eagle.......
Not sure how I found the twins' channel, but I am sitting here laughing, crying, having goosebumps as I listen to these amazing songs through the ears of the young men just experiencing them for the first time. Brings up so many memories! I was living in a dorm in college when this album was released. I remember walking down the hall and virtually every room had this album playing on individual stereos, which could be heard coming out from under the doorways. It was a universal hit! Keep it up, Williams Brothers! Can't wait to ask my grandson if he watches you. My husband will love you, too. 😄
Brother, you are providing this middle-aged man therapy during these troubled times. Music is perhaps the greatest example of our ability to express ourselves, perhaps our finest accomplishment as a species. Drink it up. Drink it all in. I envy your chance to experience so many classic tunes for the first time. It's something you can never recapture. But feeling a bit of it vicariously through you is as close as it gets. Saw the In the Air Tonight vid blow up, led me to your channel. Very happy for you. Keep it up.
Dude I'm 40, and found this LP at a record shop in my hometown, and the first time I ever listened to the whole album only a few years ago moved me to tears. Epic instrumentation and lyrics. The whole package is beyond stellar.
Him: "They got a chill vibe..." Me: Hold on to your horses friend, you're about to get blown. Him: seconds later "What?! I got to walk off! Get my mind right." So glad you're enjoying it. One of the best songs of the 80's!
Someone put it perfectly--it’s that feeling when you are giving someone a gift, watching them unwrap it... you already know what it is but they don’t. Then they love it! So I think that’s why we love the twins because it gives us that same great feeling.... and can even make us emotional. 💕
I am black and worked at a record store during high school...We had large posters for artists when new music came out...The posters would usually stay up for about a month and we would be able to take the posters home when new released albums came out...I had this giant Boston poster all the way through college through about 4 moves...I finally gave it away to a friend's son when I thought I had outgrown it (wish I still had it)...This was a great era for music...So glad I got to work at a music store...I got to hear so many artists that I would probably never have become acquainted with...I love these guys...I had many of the same reactions back in the day...Hope you guys blow up and become a national sensation...You really got something
I am a black, mixed race, male form the Caribbean. We grew up with these songs, soca, reggae, rock, soul, pretty much a little bit of everything. Music breaks down the barriers of race and culture. It is the universal language that connect us humans.

I was 15 when this came out. My best friend/next door neighbor *POUNDED* on my door one afternoon. Grabbed me, dragged me over to his house into his fathers "Man Cave" (called a "Den" then). His dad was an audiophile of the highest order. Blaupunkt (?), Bose, Pioneer components and some of the biggest dam speakers I've seen outside of a concert. He flipped this album (VINYL!!!) record on and we spent a couple hours listening to it over and over. Imagine this song at about 115 decibels... Thanks for reminding me of that and I'm glad you like it. Bang on man!
That was my big brother Larry! He musta brought you to our house, they were Pioneer speakers with crushed red velvet covering the front with a beautiful metal lace grate, had actual diamonds in the needle on the record...1977, yep yep had to our house
If you were playing on this album live it was even much better...LOL !!! You should have had my ears... 115 db is just light Rock....Try a Coliseum at 175 db and with a Strat in your hands.... The acoustic was done on a looper pedal...
WE NEED YOU BRO!! The virus isn't what I'm thinking about when I watch you. BLESS YOU!! I'm a 52 year old white woman and I am so happy to know you are in our world!!
I just discovered this young man and I thank him and his twin brother for the enthusiasm, the open heart and the joy. Oh, thank you for this - especially at this time. Much Love!
My brother and I had bedrooms across the house from each other. We'd cue up "More Than a Feeling" and then start it at the same time. The whole house was shaking. Scared my mother to death, but man - we were rocking out to Boston!
Then go full bore southern rock Blackfoot. Wishing Well and Left Turn On A Red Light. Then try some Ozark Mountain Daredevils. Jackie Blue. If You Want To Get To Heaven.
both are great songs, but musically there is no comparison. oh, i absolutely agree all the reactioners should check it out, but it's just kind of a weird comparison imo, lol.
@Lucy Anna not if rock music is not from your music listening background. These kids are from the era of rap and have just introduced r&b and rock music into their music listening lives
My son took me for a drive in his car with my grandson in the back and said to his son, “ This is the song Grandma played for me in the car when I was a little boy.” Cannot believe you’re reacting to this today.❤️
“Make sure y’all got your seatbelts on, man.” Honey, we know! And I’m so happy that you do, too. I swear sometimes you can’t tell when Brad Delp stops and the guitars kick in. One of the greats.
I like your opinions and reactions to music you've never heard. I was introduced to Boston at an early age by my cousin. I remember being amazed when he turned that album cover upside down and showed me the spaceships were actually guitars. He took his own life a few years ago. His demons were too much, I guess. So every time I hear a Boston song, I'm instantly transported back to the 70's, when him and I were just 2 kids, sitting in his room, jamming out to a record player. Thanks for this.
Thank you for writing this. I listened to this album with my best friend, someone who was a brother to me when both of us were children living in a different country in a boarding school. It's complicated and I don't want to give too many details but we both came from families that had different kinds of challenges and the country we were living in happily took the children of families such as ours in the hopes that we would stay there. My friend introduced me to this album when we were both 13 and it became our music. He killed himself some years ago. Anytime I listen to Boston and this album in particular I think about him and I miss him very much.
@Kekkai wishing God’s love on you. i know your best friend is enjoying the music each time you play it. i love how music instantly brings back precious memories of where you were and who you were with. this music has become your touchstone. ❤️
yesssssssssssss you reacted exactly as ya should .. they had SUCH an amazing sound for a band with only FOUR members if you can believe that! This was THE jam way back in the 70's and it still rocks .. it's timeless.
Honestly I feel the exact same joy he feels with this song. It takes me back to being a kid, hot summer afternoon and the neighbor is working on his car, stereo blasting Boston. Pure emotion.
You bring me joy. I remember this from my teens in the 70’s, then around 1981 I bought the record, dubbed it to cassette, and it became one of a few albums I had going in the car over and over. And over. It defined several weeks/months of 1981 for me (album is fm ‘75/76). I love how you openly cross cultures and decades and appreciate this like the buried treasure it has become. Music was so pure and high quality in those days. And my tastes like yours, crossed the gamut of what was on the radio at that time. I was every bit as thrilled with Earth, Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang, Lionel Richie, etc as I was with groups like Boston, the Cars, etc. Thank you for bringing people together!
You have got to listen to the group Foreigner. Their song “Waiting for a Girl Like You” was the song that played for my first dance with my husband. You would definitely have a great reaction to Foreigner just like you did to Boston.
Your comment that it feels like being outside, sipping lemonade and looking at the sky is EXACTLY how it makes me feel...summer day at the park or the beach with this playing. Awesome review!
You could never do an Eagles song. Their management team has 13 full time employees scanning the internet for their music playing. The shut people down faster than Metallica.
Oh my gosh. OH MY GOSH. @Shannon, I’m 59 years old, I wore this album out, but I never noticed the space ships were guitars, either! I’m just mortified..😳
When I feel really overwhelmed with everything going on, I’ll watch y’all listen to one of the classic songs of my youth for the very first time and it just makes my heart happy. Keep on keeping on. You two are awesome!!
If I only had one song to play on a loop for the rest of my life, it would be this one. Reminds me of my childhood. I used to ride my bike back home from my best friend’s house with this going through my head because her big sister would play it on a loop. People will tell you those guitars are the same recording stacked on top of each other, but those who have seen Boston live testify that they are actually two guitars played in perfect sync.
What's truly amazing is the founder of Boston, Tom Scholz, wrote the song and played all the instruments - he did this on all but one song on Boston's debut album. And if Tom could not get the sound he wanted out of the recording equipment, he made his own equipment to get him the sounds he wanted. Having a Masters in Engineering from MIT probably helped.
He was talking about sitting out in the yard, drinking lemonade looking up at the sky right before they sang, "I closed my eyes and I slipped away." Right on, Tim!
This song reminds me of being in 7th grade, hanging out at the pizza parlor that had a game room with arcade games, pinball games, an air hockey table and pool tables. It's from back in the day!
I'm 59 years old and grew up on this incredible music. It's truly refreshing to see someone from this younger generation immediately recognize its greatness and enjoy it the way I did when I first heard it 45 years ago.
Dude - I've got THREE WORDS for YOU! -- Blood, Sweat & Tears - "You've Made me so Very Happy" You will love it! A liitle slow, a little fast, a little rock... a MUST LISTEN!
This 66 year old sistah has always LOOOOVED this song and glad you got to appreciate it. One suggestion? Don't start and stop the music so often. It's meant to be experienced non-stop for the full 2-3 minutes. ❤️ Happy listening, young brother.
I think he has to stop and start to comment or he gets sighted for copyright infringement. Agreed, wish they could just comment at the end, but they can't.
FEEL IT Brother!! I’m 64, still rockin’ Boston from my day in 1975, and loving the way you take on these classic bands. You give me hope that young people have the HEART, the SOUL, and the STRENGTH to help take this country in the “We ALL KNOW what’s RIGHT” direction. Thank you for being YOU, and thank you for being an American. (A big shout out to your parents, they should be proud!) Give Boston “A Man I’ll Never Be” a try, it will blow your mind like this one did. -An old Army Veteran ❤️🇺🇸
Him: I like that cool vibe. You can just chill lay back and listen to this song. Me: Wait for it bro😈 Later Him: I got to walk off! I see what they doing. Let me to recuperate myself. Let me rejuvenate. Me: 😂😂😂😂😂 YEAH BABY!!!!
This is Boston's first single from their debut album which is still the second most sold debut album in US with 17 million copies (number one is Appetite for Destruction by Guns 'n' Roses with 18 million)
Great reaction. This album came out in 1976. In case no one has mentioned it yet, this first Boston album is the second best-selling debut album of all time in the United States, and it is the eighth best-selling album in US history, having sold at least 17 million albums in the USA to date! It's one of the greatest albums in rock history. In addition to "More than a Feeling", my other favorite songs from the album are "Peace of Mind", "Foreplay/Long Time", and "Hitch a Ride". Try those too, if you haven't already.
This is the ultimate " lost love " song. " When I'm tired and thinking cold I hide in my music, forget the day And dream of a girl I used to know I closed my eyes and she slipped away She slipped away "
@@pgestudio75 That's interesting. I fact checked that ( because people make wild claims all the time ) and you're correct. I'll still think of it as remembering someone that I loved, but lost them years ago ( because I was young and stupid ), and the songs that remind me of them.
@@amyfulton8323 Oh yes, it's absolutely a true fact. I have been obsessed with Boston since I was a kid...so this kind of stuff I am well versed on. In a weird sort of foreign interview, Scholz touches base a little on the topic at the 16 minute mark. Here's that link: ruclips.net/video/mrEzoa9-I8g/видео.html I'm sorry for that old lost love you've had and in a sense, Scholz does describe the song's meaning to be bittersweet in that sense of closing your eyes and drifting away to some place, time and event in one's life like that. More Than A Feeling sounds to be a touching song to you, as well as to most of us in one way or another. 🙂
My uncle is a drummer and when I was a kid, he'd play this song blasting through the house and drum to it, while I pretended to be the lead singer singing. I am so happy to see another black kid love this song as much as we do.
I still remember the first time I ever heard this song on my car radio back in the day. It was so beautiful I had to pull over because I had tears in my eyes. RIP Brad Delp. You were amazing.
Dude, this 50 year old man is loving your vids. This is my favorite song and I'm happy you listened to it. SOOO many great songs for you to catch up on. Oh, and thanks a bunch for making me sink two hours into your vids! :) BTW: If you haven't listen to Billy Thorpe Children of the Sun.
Remember when a concert was a good time. A damn good time. No heart ache.. no politics.. no agenda.. just a damn good, hand clapping time.. Boston remembers
Best part of this album, it was recorded by one guy, Tom Shultz, in his basement. He played ALL the instruments and he had his friend Brad sing on it. He had to find musicians to go on tour. Tom Shultz is a complete musical genius!
God blessed this beautiful young soul to an open heart but his gift is sound. God created all sound. Our bodies vibrate through sound. When sound lifts your spirit and makes you move that resonates with the frequency of God. When sound vibrates to make you feel like being a rebel, hurting someone etc. That does not resonate with truth. This young man has a soul that vibrates in unity and the frequency of God. He probably does not realize that his path is to open our hearts to unity and appreciate all sound and tones that uplift our being. Thank you God for this precious young gentleman. His heart is wide open 💓. Now that is a beautiful soul who knows no judgment, just the beauty in all life. What an old soul this young gentleman is. Beyond beautiful and I understand his soul message through the use of music and non judgment. Amen 🙏
Omg - you just wrote what I feel tonight watching these boys. God’s love language is music - beautiful music with beats and notes. I love all music - heavy metal, country, mariachi, rap, hip hop, alternative, rock, grunge. The vibrations of music are on God’s frequency. Thank you for saying all my thoughts and thank you twins for your channel. What a blessing. I am 52 years young and enjoying this so much. You boys are beautiful souls who are spreading joy with what you do. Thank you!
My goth heart would love to see your react to THE CURE. ‘Just Like Heaven’ and ‘Pictures of You’ are the standard entry-level Cure trax but feel free to do something like ‘Lullaby’ which is super weird for most people who aren’t familiar with The Cure. I would share that for sure.
I'd love a reaction to siouxsie and the banshees, too! 'The Passenger' was, I think, more commercially successful (if that's criteria for a banger, but I loooooooooove 'Cities in Dust'
I’m a Black Woman married to a 67-year-old White man and he STILL plays this loud enough to shake the rafters 💯 he wants me to play it at his funeral.

and then they released the second album :'(
The incredible vocals of the late Brad Delp. Sadly missed.
One of the all time greats!!
My son took me for a drive in his car with my grandson in the back and said to his son, “ This is the song Grandma played for me in the car when I was a little boy.” Cannot believe you’re reacting to this today.❤️
This is probably one of the best comments.
Fact: It's universal that anyone that listens to this song ends up playing the air guitar and/or air drums. 😏
True that!
You know......
I think its a law. even we chicks do it!
Tru dat!
I still get chills when I hear this song, damn its good.
Young Brother: I loved your reaction. I'm 62 and I bought this when it came out. I still get choked up.
"Let me recuperate myself! Let me rejuvenate myself!" 🤣🤣❤❤❤ Perfect reaction to the classics!
“Make sure y’all got your seatbelts on, man.” Honey, we know! And I’m so happy that you do, too. I swear sometimes you can’t tell when Brad Delp stops and the guitars kick in. One of the greats.
I like your opinions and reactions to music you've never heard. I was introduced to Boston at an early age by my cousin. I remember being amazed when he turned that album cover upside down and showed me the spaceships were actually guitars. He took his own life a few years ago. His demons were too much, I guess. So every time I hear a Boston song, I'm instantly transported back to the 70's, when him and I were just 2 kids, sitting in his room, jamming out to a record player. Thanks for this.
Thank you for writing this. I listened to this album with my best friend, someone who was a brother to me when both of us were children living in a different country in a boarding school. It's complicated and I don't want to give too many details but we both came from families that had different kinds of challenges and the country we were living in happily took the children of families such as ours in the hopes that we would stay there.
My friend introduced me to this album when we were both 13 and it became our music. He killed himself some years ago. Anytime I listen to Boston and this album in particular I think about him and I miss him very much.
@@Kyarrix I am sorry for your loss.
I am sorry for your loss. God bless you.
@@davidpost428 Thank you for your kindness.
@Kekkai wishing God’s love on you. i know your best friend is enjoying the music each time you play it. i love how music instantly brings back precious memories of where you were and who you were with. this music has become your touchstone. ❤️
yesssssssssssss you reacted exactly as ya should .. they had SUCH an amazing sound for a band with only FOUR members if you can believe that! This was THE jam way back in the 70's and it still rocks .. it's timeless.
Honestly I feel the exact same joy he feels with this song. It takes me back to being a kid, hot summer afternoon and the neighbor is working on his car, stereo blasting Boston. Pure emotion.
"I gotta walk off' 🤣🤣🤣 i love this so much
Yep, this is what you would call a “BANGER!”
You bring me joy. I remember this from my teens in the 70’s, then around 1981 I bought the record, dubbed it to cassette, and it became one of a few albums I had going in the car over and over. And over. It defined several weeks/months of 1981 for me (album is fm ‘75/76). I love how you openly cross cultures and decades and appreciate this like the buried treasure it has become. Music was so pure and high quality in those days. And my tastes like yours, crossed the gamut of what was on the radio at that time. I was every bit as thrilled with Earth, Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang, Lionel Richie, etc as I was with groups like Boston, the Cars, etc. Thank you for bringing people together!
The 70s put out alot of good rock.
All day....every day
High school ROCKED in the 70s.
henree simp Tom Sholtz didn’t get his guitar sound without electronics 😂😂😂
The late 60's and the entire 70's was totally amazing, with so many styles and all GREAT!
Love my Zeppelin and Pink Floyd!
Damn...listening to this kid playing these songs let's me go back in time to Boston concert in mid 70's. Feels like a time machine! 😍
"I'm in love with this song!"
Yaaasssss!
More Than a Feeling is absolutely in my top 15 rock songs ever.
You have got to listen to the group Foreigner. Their song “Waiting for a Girl Like You” was the song that played for my first dance with my husband. You would definitely have a great reaction to Foreigner just like you did to Boston.
Classic for Sure💯💯
yes!! Foreigner!!!
I’m a 68 year old woman and I love your reaction. You are so cute and cool! ❤️🌹❤️
I get goosebumps and I’ve heard this song thousands of times 🥰🥰🥰
Your comment that it feels like being outside, sipping lemonade and looking at the sky is EXACTLY how it makes me feel...summer day at the park or the beach with this playing. Awesome review!
Suggestions:
*Eagles- "Hotel California"
Blue Oyster Cult-"don't fear the reaper"
Styx- "come sail away"
Don't forget Golden Earring Radar Love
You could never do an Eagles song. Their management team has 13 full time employees scanning the internet for their music playing. The shut people down faster than Metallica.
YESS!!!
Styx ...anything
@@legalass17 ...its a shame isnt it....bastids
How am I 49 years old and just now realizing the UFOs are guitars?!??!
Me, too! I'm embarrassed!
Yikes bro. Lol.
LOL!
I have the album and never noticed it. My fiance had bought this album for me in 1978.
Same lol!
Oh my gosh. OH MY GOSH. @Shannon, I’m 59 years old, I wore this album out, but I never noticed the space ships were guitars, either! I’m just mortified..😳
I love how his grin gets bigger and bigger knowing the drop is about to hit.
When I feel really overwhelmed with everything going on, I’ll watch y’all listen to one of the classic songs of my youth for the very first time and it just makes my heart happy. Keep on keeping on. You two are awesome!!
I love seeing young people learning about old songs & different genres.
If I only had one song to play on a loop for the rest of my life, it would be this one. Reminds me of my childhood. I used to ride my bike back home from my best friend’s house with this going through my head because her big sister would play it on a loop. People will tell you those guitars are the same recording stacked on top of each other, but those who have seen Boston live testify that they are actually two guitars played in perfect sync.
What's truly amazing is the founder of Boston, Tom Scholz, wrote the song and played all the instruments - he did this on all but one song on Boston's debut album.
And if Tom could not get the sound he wanted out of the recording equipment, he made his own equipment to get him the sounds he wanted. Having a Masters in Engineering from MIT probably helped.
He was talking about sitting out in the yard, drinking lemonade looking up at the sky right before they sang, "I closed my eyes and I slipped away." Right on, Tim!
This song reminds me of being in 7th grade, hanging out at the pizza parlor that had a game room with arcade games, pinball games, an air hockey table and pool tables. It's from back in the day!
Hell, yeah!
I'm 59 years old and grew up on this incredible music. It's truly refreshing to see someone from this younger generation immediately recognize its greatness and enjoy it the way I did when I first heard it 45 years ago.
I’m right there with you
Dude - I've got THREE WORDS for YOU! -- Blood, Sweat & Tears - "You've Made me so Very Happy" You will love it! A liitle slow, a little fast, a little rock... a MUST LISTEN!
NOBODY reacts to BS&T! That man can sang.
This 66 year old sistah has always LOOOOVED this song and glad you got to appreciate it. One suggestion? Don't start and stop the music so often. It's meant to be experienced non-stop for the full 2-3 minutes. ❤️ Happy listening, young brother.
I think he has to stop and start to comment or he gets sighted for copyright infringement. Agreed, wish they could just comment at the end, but they can't.
FEEL IT Brother!! I’m 64, still rockin’ Boston from my day in 1975, and loving the way you take on these classic bands.
You give me hope that young people have the HEART, the SOUL, and the STRENGTH to help take this country in the “We ALL KNOW what’s RIGHT” direction. Thank you for being YOU, and thank you for being an American.
(A big shout out to your parents, they should be proud!)
Give Boston “A Man I’ll Never Be” a try,
it will blow your mind like this one did.
-An old Army Veteran ❤️🇺🇸
Him: I like that cool vibe. You can just chill lay back and listen to this song.
Me: Wait for it bro😈
Later
Him: I got to walk off! I see what they doing. Let me to recuperate myself. Let me rejuvenate.
Me: 😂😂😂😂😂 YEAH BABY!!!!
☝🏼
lol
Same - I was like yeahhhhh lemonade bro, buckle in again
hahaha... i said the exact same thing!
So glad I wasn't the only one talkin to him.
Love watching this guy.
Love that 60 and 70 rock
This is Boston's first single from their debut album which is still the second most sold debut album in US with 17 million copies (number one is Appetite for Destruction by Guns 'n' Roses with 18 million)
Actually, Boston is at nr 6 and G´n´r is split first place with Linkin Park - Hybrid theory. (as of July 2018)
My info came from US list history, not worldwide. I corrected the original comment.
@@mikaelpeltonen96 Ok. I was thinking that´s what you meant. I hope i didnt sound rude.
Not at all, my mistake.
@@mikaelpeltonen96 Good. Dont worry. Easy mistake to make. :)
Great reaction. This album came out in 1976. In case no one has mentioned it yet, this first Boston album is the second best-selling debut album of all time in the United States, and it is the eighth best-selling album in US history, having sold at least 17 million albums in the USA to date! It's one of the greatest albums in rock history. In addition to "More than a Feeling", my other favorite songs from the album are "Peace of Mind", "Foreplay/Long Time", and "Hitch a Ride". Try those too, if you haven't already.
Love Peace of Mind!
Boston "Smokin'" if you want a straight up banger ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I second this. Timeless track.
I third this!
Oml. The only other Best Song!!
The second you said that the guitar riffs slammed into my brain. I don't know about it being the best but it is intense.
This is the ultimate " lost love " song. " When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped away "
The lyrics were actually written about a crush he had on an older cousin, believe it or not.
@@pgestudio75 That's interesting. I fact checked that ( because people make wild claims all the time ) and you're correct. I'll still think of it as remembering someone that I loved, but lost them years ago ( because I was young and stupid ), and the songs that remind me of them.
@@amyfulton8323 Oh yes, it's absolutely a true fact. I have been obsessed with Boston since I was a kid...so this kind of stuff I am well versed on. In a weird sort of foreign interview, Scholz touches base a little on the topic at the 16 minute mark. Here's that link: ruclips.net/video/mrEzoa9-I8g/видео.html
I'm sorry for that old lost love you've had and in a sense, Scholz does describe the song's meaning to be bittersweet in that sense of closing your eyes and drifting away to some place, time and event in one's life like that. More Than A Feeling sounds to be a touching song to you, as well as to most of us in one way or another. 🙂
This video made me so happy I got tears in my eyes.
A good classic rock band like boston is called Kansas carry on my wayward son good song.
That one is outstanding. Also People of the south Wind. Love me some Kansas.
He did a reaction to that song
Yes!!
@@midtownkitten483 um no no he didn't look at the date he did that song a day after he did this song.
jonathan .s He has done reaction, and thats the important thing
My uncle is a drummer and when I was a kid, he'd play this song blasting through the house and drum to it, while I pretended to be the lead singer singing. I am so happy to see another black kid love this song as much as we do.
I still remember the first time I ever heard this song on my car radio back in the day. It was so beautiful I had to pull over because I had tears in my eyes. RIP Brad Delp. You were amazing.
Have you guys ever heard "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie? I'd love to see your reaction to it!
Dawn Schoemann awesome song! I heard it the other day & hummed it for hours!
They just did! 😄
Dawn Schoemann good one!!!
Dude, this 50 year old man is loving your vids. This is my favorite song and I'm happy you listened to it. SOOO many great songs for you to catch up on. Oh, and thanks a bunch for making me sink two hours into your vids! :) BTW: If you haven't listen to Billy Thorpe Children of the Sun.
Anyone want to scream, " NNNNNOOOOO!!!!" when he stops the song right before a high? You miss the full impact.
Lol, terrible place to stop, missed one of the high lights of the song!
I yelled at the screen about that very thing and just saw this comment right afterward, haha.
YES!!! I did!
God damn yes
SAME!
Remember when a concert was a good time. A damn good time. No heart ache.. no politics.. no agenda.. just a damn good, hand clapping time.. Boston remembers
Best part of this album, it was recorded by one guy, Tom Shultz, in his basement. He played ALL the instruments and he had his friend Brad sing on it. He had to find musicians to go on tour. Tom Shultz is a complete musical genius!
*Scholz
@@pgestudio75 thank you for the correction! 😁👍
@@kennethparker1347 My pleasure.
"I gotta walk off" Ha! True true! Yes it is that good! I love this kid. He's so cute.
I would love to see some Bachman Turner Overdrive on here! Maybe “Let It Ride”?
Dan Hunt so much good music! I’d forgotten Bachman Turner, Let It Ride is such a good song. Guys you would love this one! 👍👍
An underrated BTO song is ‘Don’t Get Yourself in Trouble’
I was in high school when this came out - LOVED Boston, but there was so many great bands from the 60's and 70's - hard not to get sucked in.
Such a great reaction!! Trust me, every one of us who heard this the first time did the same thing!!!
"I gotta walk off" LOL
God blessed this beautiful young soul to an open heart but his gift is sound. God created all sound. Our bodies vibrate through sound. When sound lifts your spirit and makes you move that resonates with the frequency of God. When sound vibrates to make you feel like being a rebel, hurting someone etc. That does not resonate with truth. This young man has a soul that vibrates in unity and the frequency of God. He probably does not realize that his path is to open our hearts to unity and appreciate all sound and tones that uplift our being. Thank you God for this precious young gentleman. His heart is wide open 💓. Now that is a beautiful soul who knows no judgment, just the beauty in all life. What an old soul this young gentleman is. Beyond beautiful and I understand his soul message through the use of music and non judgment. Amen 🙏
Omg - you just wrote what I feel tonight watching these boys. God’s love language is music - beautiful music with beats and notes. I love all music - heavy metal, country, mariachi, rap, hip hop, alternative, rock, grunge. The vibrations of music are on God’s frequency. Thank you for saying all my thoughts and thank you twins for your channel. What a blessing. I am 52 years young and enjoying this so much. You boys are beautiful souls who are spreading joy with what you do. Thank you!
Amen 💯
Amen yes.
You can feel it in your soul
My goth heart would love to see your react to THE CURE. ‘Just Like Heaven’ and ‘Pictures of You’ are the standard entry-level Cure trax but feel free to do something like ‘Lullaby’ which is super weird for most people who aren’t familiar with The Cure. I would share that for sure.
Me too....or even Depeche Mode
The Cure is one of my favorite bands ever....so many amazing songs
Jimmy Bean The Call
Pictures of You for sure.
I'd love a reaction to siouxsie and the banshees, too! 'The Passenger' was, I think, more commercially successful (if that's criteria for a banger, but I loooooooooove 'Cities in Dust'
“Let me recuperate myself!” Lolol. Love u guys.
Perfectly mastered, this is a timeless song and one of greatest of all time. I never get tired of hearing it.
Brad Delp had one hell of a voice. There are no singers like him today.
There will probably never be another rock singer with that range in our lifetime
Thank you, he was the greatest and yet no rocker mentions him, it's unbelievable.
And one of the nicest guys ever! So humble!
Poor guy. Such a beautiful voice.
You guys should listen to something by Styx. I recommend either "Come Sail Away" or "Fooling Yourself".
Yes, Come Sail Away!
Mr. Roboto 😂😂
@@shantillydrake283 - DOMO domo DOMO domo.
Suite; Madame Blue
I've been requesting Styx too!!!
Sure hope he plays FOOLING YOURSELF🤗😎
Such a great song, and I agree 1000% with the chorus: "When I hear them old songs play, it's more than a feeling."
Kansas: carry on my wayward son, bob segar: old time rock and roll, so many good hits out there for you to experience
Maybe the closest thing to this would be Kansas. Their big hit was "Carry on my wayward son"
AND dust in the wind.
He has a reaction video to that song
I want to them at Red Rocks a long time ago with foreigner and Styx. ❤️
That song still gives me chills- it’s intense.
Lawrence Eason “Carry On My Wayward Son” was the Bomb back in the day! I mean a banger. Lol
