- This is my first time diving deep into Earth, Wind and Fire's sound. I have heard them in passing, but never truly actively listened to their work. And what better month to analyze "September" than in September!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she analyzes Earth, Wind & Fire for the first time, performing "September".

Please react to Starset - Love you to death!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
If you want Philip Bailey separate you have to try The Chinese Wall
Yes, this was a very. happy fun song.... I remember this song in 8th grade, always playing when we were at the roller rink... great song to be roller skating to
"Soul Disco" fits.
Someone once asked Maurice White what "Ba dee ah" meant - and he said "who cares - never let a lyric get in the way of the groove"
Yeah! The songwriter, Allee Willis, who died just before Christmas in 2019. NPR did an interview with her about this song and included that quote from Maurice White.
@@clcortelyou She said that it was a huge lesson for her - she thought that wouldn't work at all!
In my brain, it turned out to "Partyartyarty On" 😀
Not me thinking about Homer Simpson in the Yvan Eht Nioj episode. "It doesn't mean anything, it's just words! Like rama-lama-dingdong or give peace a chance." xD
I swear, I always thought it was party on! LOL!
Real musicians playing real instruments, distributing joy and groove.
Philip Bailey’s falsetto is a gift to humanity. It makes me so happy. 😊
He can still hit those notes live. I've seen them three times in the last 5-ish years, including opening for Lionel Ritchie this summer.
lol. When PB dueted Easy Lover with PC in the 80s, as a kid, I had no clue who PB was.
5:13-yup. Got the shivers in me timbers
thanks
He was great with Phil Collins
I'm the guy who will not dance. I'm a musician, and I can move with rhythm, but I will not set FOOT on a dance floor. Earth Wind and Fire is like some voodoo groove butter though. There is no sitting still in that funky disco pop aural rapture. Please do more of them. You won't regret it.
@adammeager7114 I've never heard EW&F referred to as "some voodoo groove butter" but hey, I like it! You're so right though even though you have heard any of their tunes 100 times before you absolutely CANNOT sit still while listening to them even if you are doing something else; I DARE anyone to try to! Maurice also used to introduce Phillip Bailey as "The Voice" and he IS.
Earth, Wind & Fire ALWAYS makes me wanna dance my ass off, and just makes me smile and be happy.
Yes I should sue them for the loss of my own ass (danced off as you say) circa 1979 :)
@@adrian7132 😁😆
i find it astonishing when reactors don't move their body when they first hear September. i've heard it hundreds of times, some part of my body will move to the beat, EVERY TIME.
my head and hand start as soon as she unpauses. it's involuntary.
I always tell people that Earth Wind and Fire = good mood.
When my son chose the sax for band in elementary school, he was struggling with controlling all of the keys. I showed him this video so he can understand what the struggle was for, and why it was worth it. Once he saw what could be done with a great horn section, he was so much more excited to learn the sax. Of course, I also showed him "Baker Street" by Gerry Rafferty. Both are iconic.
Baker Street is my favourite sax solo. I never got to play it at school even though I wanted to; the peak of my alto sax playing was The Marriage of Figaro (which I also had to transcribe myself) for music elective class. That's a finger control nightmare and a half, I'm sure your son would agree 😂
One of the most talented bands from the 70s among many talented bands
You're a good Father 🫵🏼👊🏻👍🏻🙏🏻!
One of the greatest bands ever. Whatever genre you like, any age, you put this on and you just feel happy.
Just so, Frank...you cannot help being uplifted by their music; in effect, it is timeless.....only their videos belie that fact...
Perfection is a rare thing. In my 65 years of living - *_September_* - is the most perfect song I'm aware of. It is universally loved.
This and Sexual Healing (I'm 64).
So many great tracks! Shining Star, Let's Groove, Boogie Wonderland, Sing A Song, After The Love Has Gone
Adding my +! for Boogie Wonderland. Elizabeth, you haven't lived till you've heard Earth, Wind and Fire with The Emotions! Talk about feel good vibes! Heaven!
+ Fantasy
So many great tracks! Don't forget Reasons
LOTS & LOTS!!! ❤
Yes indeed she don't know yet only heard this song.🎉
Earth Wind and Fire introduced Soul music to all of us rockers back in the 70s and we loved it!
@TheCharismaticVoice Yes, you're right, Phil Bailey does the falsetto. Not only at Earth, Wind and Fire but also on solo recordings and the duet with Phil Collins "Easy Lover".
Phil also made extensive use of The Phenix Horns, which is why so many of his songs had this same horn sound.
I came here to suggest Philip Bailey’s duet with Phil Collins.
+1 for Easy Lover ♥
+ 2 for Easy Lover!!
@@melll1972 would you go "Easy lover" or "Chinese Wall" for the vocals? I am leaning to Chinese Wall. Great Idea thoug as it get's Elisabeth into some Phill Collins collaboration content too.
I'm glad you noticed it speeding up. I've always noticed that and liked how it energizes the song. They do that in a couple spots. Brilliant in its subtlety.
No matter what I'm doing, where I am or how I'm feeling, this is one of the few songs that just explodes with joy and makes me giddy ☺️
This song hits me hard. My daughter and I used to dance to this when she was a toddler. Now she is in college and I just sent her the link to this and I'm basically half in tears because I am really feeling it right now. Thanks for doing this video. I'm grateful that I can share your videos with her based on this connection.
I know, it goes fast.😊😢
I’m feeling exactly the same. My daughter and I played this song nearly every day for years while taking her to school. Just sent her off to college as well.
I would dance with my 3 daughters as toddlers to Fantasy. They all live in different cities now. Memories
How can anybody hear this and not just feel good?
Also, "September" was released in 1978 and is now almost 50 years old. Earth, Wind & Fire is considered one of the greatest musical groups of all time and have so many timeless songs.
Ironically, the album and single was released in November of 1978.
@@NecramoniumVideo I was also "released" in November of 1978, so people can quit saying it's almost 50 would be really nice....
I don't think it's particularly ironic that the song was released in November, because the verse is asking whether the listener, by now ensconced in late autumn or early winter, could remember the 21st night of September.
@@DianaBell_MG 1978 is only like 25 years ago
You've struck a very deep and rich vein of talent with Earth, Wind, & Fire. Every single one of their songs is an absolute hit. I honestly don't know a single person, no matter what genre they favor, who doesn't love them.
"September" is one of the great anthems of the 1970's.. Being a teenager in that decade, we all danced and sang along to this song no matter what genre was our favorite. Interesting note, in 2015 Earth, Wind and Fire toured with Chicago (another big pop band with lots of brass that you have analyzed) and they opened the show with both bands on stage together (~14 or so musicians) singing each other's hits. Awesome. I had hoped that you would get to this song someday and now the day is here. Thank You.
While I was watching this video, I was thinking they sound like a funky version of Chicago.
They were so so so close to Chicago.
Wow, that's awesome!
Just saw Tower of Power a few weeks ago. They still got it.
@@donnisrainesWow, those guys are still going? Guess I shouldn't be too surprised!
I work at a big boxstore and this song and Don't Stop till You Get Enough by Michael Jackson are the only two songs over the years that gets the most people singing and dancing as they work and shop. There's just that sense of joyfulness that hits you.😊
The happiest and danciest song ever. Nobody can hear this and not move and smile. What a tune. A perfect pop disco dance song, one of the best ever produced
Well, top 5 happiest, anyway. Among others, "I'm Walking on Sunshine" is up there, along with "Rock Lobster".
@@bwcbiz add Mr Blue Sky
@@bwcbiz and Love Shack😅has no right being that damn catchy
and when Phillip saw the lyrics, he frankly has his doubts that this track was going to really work! XD
Hard to choose between this or boogie wonderland as their danciest song.
We had two amazing marching band directors in high school and whenever a new E,W, & F song would come out, they would make an amazing arrangement for us with an equally amazing field routine. This band has remained one of my all-time favorites---to this day (Thank-you Mr. Hall and Mr. Brown).
This is a prime example of why us old-timers (60 years young here) consider this era of music, The Best Music EVER. Your enthusiasm is contagious Elizabeth!
It is quite simply, musicianship, like listening to Chuck Mangione
I’m with you! Back in 82 I ordered my first EWF album from some club selling albums at school. Kids gave me grief for ordering it, until they heard it!
I really enjoy watching her reaction they seem so real and unencumbered 😂😂 she crackes me up .😂😂😂
I'm a gen X and agree 200% with you!
@@h.albertmayorga5522 it’s also just an idea of music that doesn’t prioritize the hook, and allows musical ideas to develop
This was already my favorite song, and I’ve listened to it thousands of times. But going through this reaction, I picked up so many new things to appreciate that I’d never noticed before. Fantastic work, as always!
I've seen Earth, Wind & Fire twice in concert with Chicago and it was one of the best shows ever. Also, if you aren't in a great mood after listening to them, you just aren't a happy person
I agree. ❤
Although I won't go see them now. Earth, Wind & Fire without Maurice White just isn't Earth, Wind & Fire for me.
@kevinj.oconner788 very true. R.I.P Maurice White
i remember seeing you at both shows what one did you like the most
Just saw them at PNC arts center in NJ with Chaigo still amazing if you can see them play together go .
to hear Phillip Bailey's beautiful falsetto, "Reasons" allows you hear the incredible range. So amazing! I haven't heard anyone else ever get as high as him.
I can feel the tears pricking my eyes as I’m overwhelmed by memories of first love, a teenage romance, dancing to this with the most beautiful girl in world.
Music, and smells, are incredibly evocative of memories and feelings. God’s design is incomprehensible!❤
❤😊
Absolutely! Such great memories, definitely getting misty-eyed; can't help it...
I had the pleasure of seeing EWF and Chicago as a double bill four times. Playing together, featuring each band with singers from the other band "guesting", then the finale with both bands together, always finishing with "25 or 6 to 4", with all 3 guitarists taking solos. There is a DVD of one of their shows at the Greek Theater in L.A.-Highly recommended.
Wasn't that amazing? I was there in July
One thing that makes this song feel so "free" is that it never really resolves to the root chord (A). That leaves it feeling open and free-floating. So much smart composition, great musicianship, and stellar singing in this and most EW&F. Amazing!
Used to play in a funk band that covered this. They kept resolving to the A...drove me nuts
The vibe of this song is impeccable. It's definitely happy music. If you're down, this will lift you up. I love that the internet latched onto it as a yearly anthem on the 21st of September, but it deserves to be heard far more.
Phillip Bailey teamed up with Phil Collins (another artist you’ve delved into) for a few songs. Their biggest hit was called Easy Lover.
Thank you for this dive into Earth Wind & Fire. It’s great to gain awareness of subtleties that we may miss in casually listening to songs, and helps make us more sensitive to those as we learn more. ❤️
I’ve seen dozens upon dozens of your reactions and this is one of my favorites. You’re so genuine in your reaction and enjoyment of music and it’s contagious for certain. I hope you never stop publicly sharing your expertise and adoration of music! 🙂💯
I’m happy you now know the joy that Earth, Wind & Fire brought to my life back in the day! ❤ 🌍 🌬️ 🔥
Привет Сабина Гагик Гртгорян❤❤❤❤
Elizabeth - So glad you have discovered this iconic band! You can't help but love them - please do more!
My Birthday is the 21st of September and this song is the alarm I use to wake me up. It's a certified classic, personal biases excluded.
20th here! Happy Birthday fellow Virgo!
"September" is one of the happiest songs ever recorded. I love it so much. Thanks for this deep dive. This is definitely on my happy playlist, along with Pharrell's "Happy," Allman Brothers "Jessica" and anything by Sergio Mendes and Santana.
Yes! September Reasons and Fantasy are my favorite songs by Earth Wind and Fire. Fantastic analyses. Thank You so much for doing this. You Rock!
their greatest hits is a banger, on top of your list, That's the Way of the World, Can't Hide Love, Get you into my Life, Sing a Song, Let's Groove, Boogie Wonderland. So much happiness listening to this album!
@@Topgunphoto Agreed!
Reasons is one of my favorites!!
This has got to be one of the happiest songs ever and it was fun watching you analyze it. For me, one of the reasons I love this song is that I actually have a friend whose name is "September" ... and every day on her birthday I send this to her.
1978, Jr High science class, my science teacher walks in with EW&F Greatest Hits, breaks out the LP and we proceeded to hear an hour's worth of that album.
Music is a science so let us study this phenomenon!
Damn wish I'd had your teacher! Awesome memory 😄
I’ve heard this song my whole life (5+ decades) and your commentary made me actually hear it for the first time. It gave me goosebumps. Thank you.
When you're feeling down, Earth, Wind, and Fire's Greatest Hits will always lift your spirits.
Thanks Elizabeth for spending time appreciating the absolute joy that is celebrated and released whenever this magnificent music is played! If I want to work through a dull spell of housework, this Earth Wind and Fire track is often the first thing I play. I cant stop myself singing and dancing every single time!
It's a great example of how and why music is the unmatched expression of human emotions.
Ohhhh, it's just so happy and full of fun, colourful, joyous, musically rich and warm. I love E,W&F
As a GenXer who adores a good dark song, I have to say that Earth Wind and Fire, and this song in particular, makes me simply HAPPY. I'm discovering that it's not simply because of nostalgia.. there's something else going on here. It's becoming a yearly ritual to listen to and acknowledge this song.
You just made me love this song even more by breaking it down.
Ba dee ya dee yaa dee ya.. YEAH!
( I can't resist suggesting Easy Lover with Phil and Phil (Collins and Bailey) next.. it would be such a fun video to analyze!)
Yes, for us it's that early childhood kind of happiness that can't be replicated, even with nostalgia for the glory days of our youth in the 80s and early 90s
Yearly? I'm so sorry. I listen to this at least once a week!
Such a talented group with so many hits. One of my favs is Shining Star. Remember traveling down the highway, going to Daytona Beach for a summer vacaton , before going back to college. I remember this song, seeing the palm trees and highrise hotels and the ocean for the first time. Funny how music makes membories more powerful and lasting.
We just had a wedding at my property yesterday for my sisters childhood friend. They chose that date because it was also the bride's mothers birthday, but the first song they played after the reception was this song! They also walked out to a harry potter song, walked back in to the star wars imperial march, and had an old swing/fallout music playlist going during most of it all. It was amazing!
That whas a great day.
Another GREAT ROLLER 🛼 SKATING SONG, they some of the best SKATING songs, and I'm old enough to remember hearing it on the radio for the first time ✌🏻😎
Me too! And I still have my roller skates from the 70’s!!
“Fantasy” is amazing, please do a deep dive into this Earth, Wind and Fire hit song.
Fantasy has been one of my favorite songs for almost 50 years!
Fantasy is one of their best! Excellent choice!
It's a difficult favorite, ewf is so wonderful
Oh, yes, that song is so intricate…
YES! And Philip Bailey’s falsetto on the out choruses gives me shivers, as does what he does in Reasons. The versions of both on the EWF/Chicago DVD are amazing!
Yes, Elizabeth you finally reviewed EWF in September! Good timing. This song is definitely a happy song
along with Mr Sunshine, Saturday in the park for the month of September.
So glad you are hearing Earth Wind and Fire. They’re such a great band. I love both singers but Philip Bailey is a special talent. His duet with Phil Collins on Easy Lover would be a very fun song to analyze in the near future.
Another vote for Easy Lover!!
You nailed the confidence insight. Your genuine enthusiasm is refreshing--it must be fun to find so much "new" music. Still amazes me--but watching you having fun is so cool.
Earth, Wind and Fire are my go-to for those down days. . . . just so full of life in their sound
Aaahhh! I requested this song a while back and I’m sooo incredibly happy that you chose to cover it!! It’s always been one of my favorite dance songs and never fails to make me happy and get me moving. The falsettos are gorgeous, the brass is so bright and happy, and the lead vocals are smooth as butter and so natural. Pure fun and freedom to me!
As a child of the 1970's, I heard this band growing up. Wonderful! This was real dance music.
I'm glad you did this song. My family is part of the Phoenix Horns playing the saxophone Don Myrick the secret weapon of Earth, Wind and Fire.
A couple of years ago I started playing this song every friday afternoon on my commute home from work. Always puts me in the best mood. Seeing Elizabeth analyse it and just smiling away throughout the entire song totally made my Monday as well.
Saw "The Elements", as we called them back then, in Chapel Hill, NC in the 70s. I dated a DJ at the time and tickets were free. Probably THE MOST fun concert ever! They were in fine fettle, which made us happy, which fed them and made us even happier...the flow of energy was palpable all night.
Funny aside...I went on to marry another radio man (the voice) and saw everybody I ever wanted to see except Ray Charles. VIP parking, star club passes, backstage...I did it all. Glad I did. Priorities change as we age.
Yes! So happy to see you doing Earth, Wind and Fire. I hope you do more songs from them like the live version of Reasons, Yearnin' Learnin', and Sing A Song. And more soul R&B music in general for that matter.
I'm a rock/new wave guy, but damn I love this. Earth Wind and Fire, KC and the Sunshine Band, The Dazz Band, etc. - who can resist a dozen musicians on stage just having a great time. And the horns! I wished they still used them in popular music.
I loved this one for personal reasons. My dad was a huge funk fan, especially earth wind and fire, and tower of power. You brought back so many warm memories of listening to this with him
Love love love how genuine your excitement is when you do these. It carries over to us!
❤🎉
Oooh, I feel thrown back in time, listening to my portable radio when I was a kid. I always felt good, hearing such beautiful music, back in that days. ❤❤ 🎶
Your passion for music is infectious. I grew up with a song from them, "After the love is gone", that for some reason just stops me in my tracks every time it plays. This started when I was about 8 years old. Far before I understood the lyrics. I can't think of any other song that has ever affected me as much as it does. Hope you listen to it at some point.
This has been on my happy play list for a very, very long time.
I am so happy listening to Earth, Wind and Fire singing September. It is such a happy song sung with enthusiasm and joy. Your reaction in priceless!
Appreciate you reacting to and breaking down beloved classics.
Earth, Wind & Fire The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1 has been my Sunday morning breakfast-cooking jam since 1978. It's a wonderful way to start a Sunday morning!
Philip and Phil (Collins) “easy lover” great song and video!
👆💯💯💯
Yes!
Thanks!
I'm happy that you posted this. My mother passsed away last year and this song is her birthday!
Can confirm, I am always happy when listening to this, your enthusiasm for music is a big part of why I follow your channel.
I love learning about the music I have loved my whole life from someone of your expertise.
Do your thing Sister!
Back in 2005 “The Today Show” had a concert series. One of the shows, which you can find on RUclips, was Earth Wind and Fire with the band Chicago. What a horn section! Definitely worth a listen.
Your verve and enthusiasm for this classic is wonderful to see. Thanks.
As a brass player that grew up in the 70s, this was one of the bands we strove to play like.
Same. What a perfect sound.
Elizabeth's mention of "soul disco" makes me thing that is a good description of 70's funk.
My Earth, Wind and Fire memory is from about a little over a decade ago. Our municipality had a music festival, and the brass band I play in were the opener for Earth Wind and Fire. The horn section stood offstage during our performance, then we had a great conversation after our set. Great guys
There's a rejoicing in this song that is so uplifting and infectious. You made that 25 minutes blaze by. Thank you!
You got it correct Elizabeth about who is low and high voices. Philip Bailey had released solo albums, including one song that featured Phil Collins - "Easy Lover".
One of the all time greatest bands. Glad you took the time to review this
The greatest show band of all time! I was fortunate to see them 4 times during the 70’s. Tremendous talent.
I really love the way you Elizabeth analyze the videos. You're going in to it with every sense of the music and vocals in combine with each other. You're listening to it not only with your head. Yor're listening and analyze it with every sense and with your whole body...and i like that a lot. I have seen people, vocal coaches, bandleaders, singers and other professional people analyze music and vocals on youtube....but you are the real deal Elizabeth. You also feel the music and voclaparts with each and every sense. I put more into your reactions direct when you hear something extra and when you are giving big smiles, close your eyes and emotions to it. Thank you for doing this cause it makes it more than just an analyst listening to it and brake it down in parts. I thinsk you are number onein doing this on youtube
So many of the great 70s bands were just pure vibes. Being born in the early 60s, I was old enough to really appreciate the vibe. So much happiness.
Bravo! This was one of my absolute favorite R&B bands back in the day. Great job!
You have to listen to Fantasy a killer piece and Philip Bailey's range is unreal His falseto head/voice is like a trumpet at the e in d when he improvises on the out take ... song structure amazing a must listen a song to hear for a life time ...this group was awesome live as well Fantasy is a masterpiece 👍👍👍👍♥️☮️
i don't think i will ever get tired of your music reactions! thank you!
Need a bingo game for all the different reactions (60 in total, 5 categories: I am still working on the game).
wow thanks
Keep up the great work!! Your choices are a delight!!! So much fun enjoying these songs together, it truly is amazing!
Great choice Elizabeth. Earth, Wind, & Fire... Funk-a-Disco. I was 8, 9, 10 yrs. old and my mom would have their music in heavy rotation in the house. It was about the same time that this genre of music became more popularized with a wider demographic of people in the USA. In the late 70's the films Saturday Night Fever, and reboot of Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band led by The Bee Gees, Frampton, & E, W, & F and heavy radio play on Top 40 radio led to the disco-funk explosion. I was already digging into AC/DC, Kiss, and Rush at the time. I am grateful for the wide variety of music my parents listened to when I was young. I have the same "open" ear they had. Thank you for your effort, excellence, & enthusiasm. Side Note: it would be fun to watch a musical film such as Spinal Tap, Sgt. Peppers, Rock of Ages with you and the Charismatics. Like an extended play - drinks, snacks, laughs.
When I saw that you were analyzing September I knew it would be going on your happy playlist.
EW&F have been on my "happy music" playlist for decades!! Make cocktails, invite friends & have a summer dance party on the patio. The horns, the harmonies...EW&F are all killer, no filler.
An insane amount of talent. The EWF horns were tight as .... but everyone is working so hard. Such an incredible vocal performance from everyone.
LOVE Earth, Wind & Fire! Thank you!!
This was the first 45 I ever bought with my own money. HAPPY MEMORIES!!!! Thanks for doing this song!!!
Elizabeth, thanks for making me smile and feel better after a very stressful weekend 🤗 I always enjoy your educational, insightful and always entertaining content!
We were fortunate enough to see them in concert in a free concert in our hometown. Just fantastic. Maurice introduced Philip as simply "The Voice," and Philip just raised the roof with his awesome highs.
Happy you decided to analyze this one. For me, I intend to have EW&F's "Fantasy" played at my funeral. Obviously, I can't guarantee it, but that's my intent.
I've been working at sunset sound since 1987 Earth wind & fire has done a few albums there. Verdine is a good friend of mine. And a sweetheart of a man. Enjoy
One of the greatest wedding reception songs ever!, yes, it's exudes a couple's happiness and love now and moving forward
Funny this popped up... just watched a video of a parakeet whistling 'September' on the toob, it was awesome.
I was so happy when I saw that this song is today’s deep dive. My first thought was, “Oh, Elizabeth is going to _love_ this.”
I can’t tell you how pleased I am that you are diving into EWF! You’ll love it.
thanks
Saw them in 1976. Best memory of a live show I have. Absolutely epic and inspiring!
remember seeing there what a Night
