Love "Still the One" from these guys. =)
"Still The One" is still the one!
It’s a great song, but I’m still so much in love with Dance With Me. Still The One just got played so much. Great song, but I prefer this one. But I’m splitting hairs here.
chrisbbill Both killer songs. I prefer Still The One a bit more. That song's rockin' tempo and vocal breakdown are what gets me.
@@chrisbbill I'm with you. Dance with me is such a sweet sentimental song. Always loved it since a teenager. The harmony and words are simply beautiful .
Excellent choice ! I haven't heard it since the 70's. Reminds me of The Little River Band. Another brilliant band of the 70's.
I've listened to it on Pandora 1970s Lite Rock Hits and they play it on a regular basis.
So true ❤
@markbirchette8740 Hearing this song is like walking through the park and reminiscing! 😊👍
Fil each time you feature a classic group like Orleans on a show like this , you make me miss shows like this more and more.
They may be old school now but they were new school to a 15 year old in 1975. This song was playing in the background while I was experiencing all the joys and despairs of being a teenager. It makes me remember the way I used to feel (Is that a song? I think that is a song) Anyway, thank you Professor for analyzing the playlist of my life. Love your channel!
Winter Lane Amen! Despairs of being a teenager! Then raising them!!!! I made it through both!!!
I remember this song and "Still The One" well. the folk era of the late 1950's and early 60's and folk rock of the late 60's and 70's saw excellent harmony among some of the bands. "Orleans" where one of them. excellent demo and analysis. Fil You got my vote for Teacher of the Year!
You forgot about, "Love Takes Time". I think it's the the best of the three.
Have to admit the studio version is a timeless classic..they captured something in the studio version that I've felt in other songs I can't put my finger on it
Well put!
The producer for this particular studio version was Chuck Plotkin. I have the original first pressing of this track on vinyl and the production values are so clean and crisp, with a dynamic range incredibly vast, that you get goosebumps throughout the take. Here's the studio version: ruclips.net/video/Q4ggEyx9dKc/видео.html
I miss these songs. They just seem to answer something in you.
FIL YOU ARE SUCH A HARD WORKER COMPILING ALL THESE ANALYSES PLUS LIVESTREAMING TUESDAYS AND SATURDAYS I HOPE YOU ARE TAKING TIME FOR YOURSELF 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
"Love Takes Time" is my favorite.
Yeah Randy--Great record !! Their last hit, kinda lost in the disco era....UNDERRATED !
Absolutely!!!! Love Takes Time!!!!!!
Mine too. Yet out of their major hits,
*"Love Takes Time"* got the least
amount of airplay...🎸🎙️🥁
Thanks for helping keep me sane during the mess the world has turned into Fil..
And my uncle used to sing this song to me when I was a little girl while he spun me around the living room..Orleans was his favorite band and he would play this song all the time..great memory
I love you playing and singing with your review
This great oldie reminds me of being young and in a good mood all the time🙂. I ❤️ when Fil gets the 🎸 going. 🤟
Great Harmonies. Great demo on the licks Fil.
They're so good at what they do, in fact, that every time it comes on the radio the hand turns up the volume knob and we're onstage with the boys singing at the top of our voices.
Songs like ‘Dance with me” the Bellamy Bros “Let your love flow” and Loggins and Messinas “Danny’s song” are what I love about the 70s the most. The tender side. Nothing wrong with a little love folks!!
I remember hearing *"Let Your Love Flow"* all over the radio back then...
Wow, havent heard that in ages. Great song
Oh, another great Couples Only skate. Knew I remembered the name
Your killing it. Dean Martin and now Orleans. Such good stuff. I was only ten when this came out, but remember it well. Gooey good, soft rock.
Great band and song. I fell blessed to have grown up hearing this on my little AM transistor radio and watching all of the greats on Midnight Special.
These guys were loosely based in and around Ithaca, NY, where I was attending university in the early 1970s. Loved them and their music. Brings back many memories. Thanks, Fil!
"The Haunt"!!!!!!!
Saw many a great band there.
CNY connection here and my favorite cover of the song
ruclips.net/video/XqpZL9UGyFA/видео.html
Oh my-The Haunt. I had forgotten about that place until you mentioned it!
This song constantly played in moms rusty beige Datsun.
I love and forgot about this old jam! Thank you, Fil!😍❤
Wonderful memories of a beautiful song from the 70's.. Thanks for covering this one Fil.
I spent every summer at the beach 👙 ( Yes lucky me 😆 ) till I started High school ) This song came out while I was still in Jr. High School and that summer it was on the radio every 5 minutes and I should know because working on my tan and watching the beach babes was very tough work 😉
What a life swimming & girls in the day & hit the casino (arcades) Pinball & the girl's at night ✌😎 Life was great ! ! Thanx Fil... it's amazing how music is such a big part of our life and it helps us remember certain good,bad,great or even sad times !
Keep healthy and safe everyone.....
💜 💛 💚 💙 💖 🌏 💖 💙 💚 💛 💜
Adore this song...
Oh My gosh Fil...your vocals were fabulous on that!! The roller rink played this every Saturday in 1975 :) Great song to skate to when you are 12. :)
I love how your guitar "magically" appears from time to time! lol I loved Orleans...still have the vinyl album in my collection! The 60s and 70s were such a wonderful era for harmonies and intricate arrangements...all played/sung by accomplished musicians of the time...miss those days! 🧡
thanks you took back too my younger days made my day
Fil. You HAVE to admit that the 70's music was the best! 😉
Ethel Palmer It was great but where it was born was the sixties I think ?
Indeed the 70s were the best in all regards
Pulling out the pic stick .. Hold on...
I prefer the double stop way you did it...
Rock 🎸 ole' school 🏫
OMG Fil, cut to 2000-2004 my daughter attended All Souls Catholic Church private school in Sanford, Fla with the lead singer’s twin daughters. He was during at this time the antithesis of a rock singer according to his wife. Anyway he sang in the church choir. Lodie
Lol. Love this song and video. Excellent choice and breakdown as always! 🎸😎
Fil! You probably know this but these were guys from the "Southern Fried Rock" genre and era! Good timey instrumental Rock and or Soft Rock bands from the South! Orleans was loved by all! Was a High Schooler in this time! I do love your analyses especially doin music from my youth! Brings back good times! Thanks and super job! "Rock!"
Too bad the band was from New York State...
I was blessed to grow up in the 70's. The music was so well written and sung.
I always wondered what the tube was for. Thanks for explaining that. It does sound just like a harmonica. Great video and analysis of the song. Thank you.
I was 17 years old, when this song came out. This was one of my favourites groups from the era. Still the One, was another good one from these guys.
Great video Fil. I really appreciate, that your interest in music, transcends different Genres.
Cheers!! Rock!!!!
Good memories...
This was a great tight performance! Great harmonies! Loved these guys! Dance With Me, Still The One & Love Takes Time were all Top Ten singles here in Canada. Great melodic 'stay in your head ' kinda tunes. Wished they could have kept those catchy melodic tunes coming forever . As always your knowledgeable analysis was stellar Fil! Thanks for looking at Orleans..one of those great super talented often forgotten groups from back then. 😎🎼🎵🎶🇨🇦
John Hall of Orleans was in Congress for a few years from New York. Very intelligent and versatile guy. I think John and the guys backed a lot of 60’s and 70’s bands during the summer package tour shows of recent summers.
I highly recommend you also review Little River Bands songs. Glen Frey of the Eagles actually said they were the best vocal band in the world. Like these guys - hours and hours of practice.
...Ohhh my gawd....how in the world did you figure out those notes ???...That is talent in a different stratosphere....
Love, Orleans, they're songs were so happy, up beat, and meaningful... Just listening to them, put a smile on my face.., they were great live... What an era, the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's were for music, never to be duplicated.... Great Demo again, Filip!
I didn't know that Larry Hoppen (Lead vocalist) committed suicide in 2012. Wow. Irony.
Awesome choice and analysis Fil and thanks for the memories of a bygone era.
Beautiful music , and I must say I love when you pull out the old gat . Your skills never fail to amaze.
Thanks!
Isn’t it just such a lovely song? I was quite young when that came out and it reminds me of a time of innocence. I had forgotten about them. Thanks for the reminder🙂
Fil, you deliver another great analysis showcasing the beautiful music of Orleans. Their harmony is perfect and they do not miss a beat.
HI FIL YOU DO A GOOD JOB. YOU CAN PLAY ANY SONG THAT YOU WANT. THATS AMAZING. WHAT A TALENT. GOOD SONG STAY SAFE OUT THERE .PEACE AND LOVE
Dance With Me was on Orleans II. Their record label didn't release the album in the US because they believed none of the songs were strong enough to be a hit. They changed labels, and fortunately included this song on their third album as well, and released it as a single.
I'm back to being 12 years old, on holiday at Myrtle Beach with my family, walking down the shore in the evening. I can't believe I'd forgotten about that song. Thanks so much for bringing back the memories!
I have seen Orleans many times... First time was 1976, when they opened for Jackson Browne. Master Class is a perfect description... they always had some of the most amazing vocal harmonies life and in the studio. As well as being two killer Strat players... Nice choice of Dance With Me..... Excellent video
I love the easy listening stuff from the 70's. So good!!!! Pegasus cannot stop smiling thru this and neither can I. Just good fun music.
A huge hit in its day and one of my favorites at the time. Orleans had two huge hits, the other being Still The One. Kenny Loggins was another singer in that style solo, or Loggins and Messina. Anne Murray another great pop singer with songs like Snowbird.
Saw Orleans back in the mid 70's, opening for Bonnie Raitt. Amazing concert! Thanks for the memories Fil.
My favorite song. And I didn’t even request it. Back from college.. Scott and I expecting. Such a beautiful time in our lives. I have this one on my I pod when I walk. Turn it in to a teaching video, Fil
Saw Orleans back in '76 and again last year in Park City.
Your analysis of "old school band" is why I have become a major fan of "Band-Maid," a group that you have reviewed previously. You always impress me with your musical ability and the wealth of knowledge you possess. Thanks, maestro 🙏
Great 70s song. My favorite from this group is “Love Takes Time”.
This was a great hit, like so many from the 70’s! Very much enjoyed this Reaction. The best decade of all music genres. We were so blessed and didn’t know it.
Oh boy! This is such a cool catchy song and Midnight Special live, too! I never saw what they looked like, and the melodica is super interesting...wow! Thanks for the guitar demo, it 'doubles the pleasure, doubles the fun'!
Great tune. 👍
Such a great classic song! That little strumming acoustic intro is such a memorable hook.
Havent heard this song in ages, but its just such a great journey. Like you said, top musicians and singers at the top level.
I vote for an acoustic album. Who's with me?
This is a wonderful example of how excellent bands were in the 70's! Please check out England Dan and John Ford Coley doing "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight" live on Midnight Special, it is soooo awesome :)
Always loved these harmonies, and the song has a sad and sweet memory for me as it was one of my brother Rob's favorite songs. When I hear this one come on the radio, I need to listen all the way through.
Oh wow, thanks Fil, I haven't heard that for years. Brilliant!
I was four years old and grew up with this song and Orleans’ “Still the One”. It continues to make my heart sing. Truly romantic and beautiful musicianship.
Orleans was an awesome group. Just hanging out and listening to these guys and a few similar, was what we did before this internet thing. Now this song will be in my head all week😜
Their harmonies were great! Still The One and Love Takes Time all demonstrated super vocals. Orleans came out of Woodstock, NY in 1972. As a lifelong New Yorker if I tell you the talent that emerged from that neck of the woods over the years, it would astound you. After drummer Wells left, Jerry Marotta went i. Yep, Rick';s brother and great drummer of post-Genesis Peter Gabriel.
Hi Fil! This is another great band from the 70's. Wow...so many talented musicians. Take care :)
Walk Off the Earth had a melodica played in their video version of Happy. Great song. I saw Orleans in 1974 when they were touring for their first album. Great stuff.
This is one of those songs that was all over the radio growing up. It's endlessly catchy. I vaguely remember the band's name but didn't know anything about them. Thanks for explaining the melodica. I've never even heard of this instrument. I had no clue what I was even looking at!
love all the variety of the 70s bands. Loved Midnight Special.
Ah, the ole slow dancing songs of the mid-70s that were played in Junior High gyms all over America. Those dances on Friday nights, kept me in trouble. ;-)
ive loved this song since it came out !!!!!
Love this song , a little bit sad and happy at the same time . Thanks for explaining what a melodica is . Seems very early 70's but it adds to the song just right . I remember when it came out and was played a lot on AM radio .
This song has always made me feel like I'm flying. It's a very magical song.
Great pick I grew up listening to that
So many great 70’s and 80’s bands with super talented people! Enjoy your analyses vids very much. Clearly you have great talent and knowledge with the ability to allows us who don’t to understand what we are hearing. Thanks so much.
Fil, that was an excellent analysis! I grew up in the 70s and have heard this song my whole life, but I didn't understand the craftsmanship that went along with it. You should record a cover with yourself on overdubs. That would be great!
One of my favorite songs. Chet Atkins, Earl Klugh, Nokie Edwards, and Jose Feliciano have done excellent instrumental versions.
I just discovered this analysis today. Where have i been? I am so glad you are analyzing this great song. I loved the three part, harmonies of Orleans -- always in tune -- , and their tasty musical arrangements (that guitar/melodica lick at the end is so good!). You don't hear many melodica solos in pop music, but it gives a very unique flavor. I loved the softer side of Orleans as well as their rockier side with John and Larry's dueling electric guitars.. Their lyrics were always uplifting. So many great songs, not just the hits.. One of my favorite bands of all time. Was so sorry to hear that Larry Hoppen is no longer with us...Thanks, Fil. You have such impeccable taste in music and a great way of explaining why a song is as good as it is. Much gratitude to you.
Tommy Shaw (Styx) and Jack Blades (Night Ranger) covered this song on their CD, *Influence.*
Hope you are doing well Fil.
Stay safe, healthy, & have a wonderful weekend...🎸🌞🎶
God this song brings back so many great memories Fil! Fabulous harmonies and musically brilliant! Awesomely talented! Cheers Mario! 😀🤘👌
I love that song
Like Seals & Croft, another great song and band to chill with at anytime. 👍👍
Thank You Fil for taking my request!! This is a timeless classic! The harmonies are on another plane!!
I had such great music to do homework to and daydream about love.
Excellent review. I might add that keeping all those wheels turning at the same time, accurately, was a large part of the fun of playing and singing music, as i did during the late 60's, 70's, and 80's.
Fil’s appreciation for music that he wasn’t alive to experience is pretty sweet, there’s just nowhere else you can find this sort of analysis for music of the past decades. Personally this song captures the romantic longing I felt when I was a teenager for the girls I fancied. The beating pulse, the feeling of your heart falling into your stomach, the overpowering sense of euphoria that floods your head. Definitely one of the best songs ever of its genre.
And Fil’s voice hitting those highs is glorious.
Haha thanks!
My 16-year-old daughter loves this song! We watched your analysis together and enjoyed it so much. Especially your singing part of it for us! 😊💜 Thanks, Fil!
So good. I love the guitar explanations. Thank you.
Love them! I saw them in LA with Ambrosia back in....... whew......1983
I ❤️❤️❤️ Ambrosia... Biggest Part of Me..Packs vocals..the whole song..😍😍😍
As soon as the guitar played I knew what song would be sung. I love that you analyze all types of music but especially the music from the 50’s - 90’s. Todays music is so different from My generation. Also I love The Cure, Morrissey, Pet Shop Boys, Bryan Ferry, and the 80’s music. I listened to your Seals & Crofts analysis and remember seeing them in concert. Wow! Their voices blended beautifully. I’m still waiting for your analysis of Phil Ochs and his song Changes. Love Orleans harmony. This is awesome. Fil, I appreciate what you do so much. ❤️
Thanks Fil, this takes me back to my youth as an awkward 15 year old in high school. So many memories of such a bitter sweet era in my life. Love your commentary. You are a true English gentleman.
Diminished chords are like spices in food.
Great analysis Fil.
LOVE THIS SONG 😍😍😍😍😍
Orleans was a great band! Thanks Fil!
John Hall went to Congress for a district in Ulster County, NY, which includes Woodstock in 2007 and served a second term, leaving in 2011. He also did a tremendous amount for the environment, organizing a group to fight a nuclear plant that was planned to be put on the Hudson River, among other efforts. He's a great musician, but also a terrific citizen.
"Time Passes On" was played in the memorial video for Larry.
When I saw the tube beside Larrys mic I thought it was going to be for a "talk-box", but NO. I can relate to these guys cause I played in several multi-vocal/player bands, and still hear things from that perspective. As always, an insightful review.
