'Wish I didn't know now what I didn't Know then.' Seger is a fantastic singer and songwriter. And it never hurts to have members of The Eagles on backing vocals.
One of the best lyrics ever written, it's timeless, as we all end up knowing exactly what that means.
Was just gonna say. That's one of several great lines of Bob's that resonates with me so much.
The REAL Deal! Truly Legendary! Detroit Grit 🇺🇸👍🌅
Not the Eagles, it was Glenn Frey.
@@stephaniegauntt6894 OK, an Eagle then. 😎
When I was a young man listening to this kind of music, I wondered if I would ever sit back and remember my life like this. Everything was new, I liked the music but couldn't relate. Now that I am older, my body and mind broken with the best years way behind me, it feels different. I hear Seger's voice and lyrics, but I feel the sentiment and look back at my own experiences. I hope young people learn to cherish what they have. Life is fragile and really, really short. Don't waste it.
Well said! I agree, there are so many songs I have a different perspective of now that I’m older. I just found these music reaction videos, and having such a kick watching the young ones enjoy a song I’ve loved for decades. Makes me love it all over again.
I'm sorry to hear that your body and mind are broken. My body is betraying me in my old age, but I'll never feel broken. I love the life I led with few regrets and some songs make me nostalgic for the past.....happy that I lived it
Life IS short. Now matter how long you get to live, the time goes quicker than you realize. Make it count.
@@rubroken Thanks, but don't be sorry for me. I had a good run. Shorter than I wanted, but more than some get. I can't complain.
@@dog4mike Pretty much, my feelings. I was hoping your post wasn't as bleak as it sounded
I think that Bob Seger is the most underrated songwriter in history. His catalog stands up with anyones.
The Bob Seger Odyssey: A 17 Year Overnight Success Story
The last great American storyteller.
He is as good as anybody, his lyrics are timeless.
I agree. I've heard Bob Seger songs so many times over many decades, but never really dug deep into the lyrics until a couple years ago. Bob Seger's lyrics paint a picture in my minds eye clearer than almost any other songwriter I can think of. Another criminally underrated songwriter is Neil Peart, the drummer of Rush. Neal Peart also wrote many songs with lyrics that paint a picture in my minds eye. Unless you are a fan of Rush, nobody knows how amazing Neil Peart's lyrics are.
I don't think he underrated at all. He's considered one of the finest singer writers ever, a legend, RnR HoF ... what else is there. Probably the best "heartland" performer out there and one of the finest musicians out of Michigan ever and that's saying something
The older you get, the more this song means. "Deadlines and commitments. What to leave out, what to leave in." When I was young, those lyrics were a yawner, describing something I didn't understand (adulthood was freedom!). Now, they still hit me hard every time I hear them.
I really get it when I listen to "Like a Rock".
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
Thematically a companion to Turn the Page
You're not alone, where the hell does time go?
Best line of any song "Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then"
truer words were never spoken. . .
@@teresajarrell452 It resonates--not the same as if you did know now what you didn't know then. It makes such a difference. Makes me appreciate what I "didn't" know.
No shit
“Deadlines and commitments… what to leave in, what to leave out”. Seger is one of the best at painting a picture. A couple you should hit which aren’t played a lot are “Roll me away” and Even now”! Yes, don’t sleep on Seger! More please! 🎸
Love those lines too!
I remember reading a story about how Seger played "Like a Rock" to Don Henley to see what he thought. When he was done, Henley said something to the effect of, "What the hell, man... you can't use a four-syllable word ('unencumbered') in a rock song!" 😄
When I was much younger I used to listen to Bob Seger when I was traveling by motorcycle. Roll me Away was a great song for long rides that deserves more attention IMHO. (Along with "Turn the Page" and "Get out of Denver")
@@elzy01 Not sure why so many “Reactors” ignore Roll me away. I think it’s one of his best 10.
@@elzy01,
I have this and "Roll Me Away" on my biker playlists on RUclips and Spotify.
Two amazing lines in this that we can all pretty much relate to. “Wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then” and “surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends”
Heavy stuff. Bob was an amazing songwriter.
@kylek1742 Absolutely right! Such good lines and so relatable to those who have lived long enough
SO true..............melancholy ...........💔💔
I'm 73 and I hear Bob's words and definitely understand them and can relate
Started following Bob around 1969. Used to see him every time he booked a gig in Cleveland at the small bars. In the 70s my band covered this song and I got to sing it. Now, at the ripe young age of 70, the line, "Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then", really hits home with me. Truer words were never spoken! J and Amber, you two always make my day. I wish you and everyone else on this channel much love and peace. ❤✌
I love that you followed Bob since the beginning so I thought you’d like this story. A friend of mine who is right around 70/72 or so lived in Waukegan illinois. His highschool had a battle of the bands one night at the local roller rink- two unknowns at the time, but Seger was one of the bands. Well, his highschool picked the other band and booed Bob and the silver bullet band off. My friend to this day just kicks himself for being a “dumb teenager” back then. Of course the other band that won never did a thing!! Anyway I love hearing him tell us that story after a couple of beers and a Seger or two song on the jukebox! Too crazy!
Ok, story time, but mine is pretty weak. I grew up in a northern suburb of Detroit in the 60’s. My sister was 2years older and into rock and roll at the time. Bob Seger played at a very small joint she went to called the Teen Center in our town pretty often, it was a non-alcoholic hangout the city put together. But alas, I was too young and withdrawn to go there, but as Seger continued to gain fame I remembered… “hey isn’t that the guy that…?” Much later, in the 90s, I co-owned a record store in the same general area, and Kid Rock would come in with his cardboard box full of home-made “bootleg tapes” to consign in our store. He really was a “Kid” back then… They ALL start at the bottom, some work hard & get lucky, too!
God bless you too, brother!
I wish I knew then what I know now....
@@ffjsb yeah, that's the normal saying. I always take that line to mean it was much simpler to be young and innocent than to grow up with the weight of the world on your shoulders. However, I do wish I would have purchased Microsoft or Apple stock when they debuted on Wall Street! LOL
Bob Seger always carries such soul and emotion in his voice!! Love him!!
Please check out: Night Moves, Shame On The Moon, Still The Same. Also revisit Paul Davis: Cool Night, Sweet Life, '65 Love Affair. Eddie Rabbitt: Drivin' My Life Away, You & I, Step By Step, Warning Sign, Someone Could Lose A Heart Tonight! Keep smiling!! 🎶❤️🎶
All so good!! Now I have to listen to some of these i havent heard in forever!!
Horizontal Bop, Her Strut 🥰 .. Hard to go wrong with Bob
It’s a detroit artist thing. With some exceptions of course.
Shame On The Moon is especially special to me. I dunno why. Night Moves might legitimately be the best pop song written during the entire '70's. It's right upt there next to Hotel California, American Pie, and Bohemian Rhapsody.
@@jhamler1 Shame on the Moon is my favorite.
"Against The Wind", "Like A Rock", "Night Moves"... Seger sings our lives with a soulful voice.
SO WELL SAID- “ Sings our lives” Amen to that❤️
Agreed!
The piano playing on this song is magnificent
Personally I think his best album was live bullet there are no bad songs on there
A classic!!!
I know every word to every song on that one. Every beat, every pause. Seger ROCKS
Any time someone mentions "Turn The Page" the first words I think are "This is from '72 also. Bought being on the road..."
He is one of the best story tellers. He has no bad songs!
For storytelling, I'd suggest Roll Me Away.
@@55itsme or Like A Rock🫶🏻
This song hits so much differently as ive aged. From a teen to now in my 40's , the line "Im older now and still running against the wind"
"Deadlines and commitments.... What to leave in, what to leave out" . Bob could definitely write a great line and did so many times. I think you guys should do a rocker from Live Bullet, the album that broke him nationally. Like Get Out of Denver, Nutbush City Limits, or Katmandu. The Silver Bullet Band in their home venue I think, Cobo Hall Detroit.
If there was only one artist I had to choose to listen to for the rest of my life.....it would be Bob Seger
Amen.
Me too!
So we’ll said.
I have to agree!
Bob Seger is a poet! He weaves such fantastic stories. Please, please, please, do many more!
Seger has always been upfront. Says what he means and means what he says, and does a beautiful job of it musically. He's THE MAN!
The older I get, the more meaningful this song becomes. At age 71, looking back at the innocence, excitement, freedom of youth.
But "still running against the wind."
J&A, you'll love his "Night Moves", "Hollywood Nights", "The Fire Down Below", "Her Strut" and more!! (the last 3 are bangers!!!)
edit-
Glad y'all like the Blues Brothers Movie, an all-time favorite of mine.
Also Main Street, C'est la vie, Nutbush City Limits,
The Fire Down Below, Her Strut and Old Time Rock and Roll are my favorite Bob Seger songs!
Hollywood Nights is my favourite, great song!
night moves is amazing.
I'm such a huge Bob Seger fan and he was a few years before my generation but my dad's taste in music inspired me to pick up the guitar and force myself to practice my dad was a good guitar player, performer and singer but I just couldn't learn from him at the age of 15-16 so I stopped in a music store in 1989 maybe 1990 and I purchased two chord books full of songs, one was the best of Bob Seger and the other was the best of The Eagles! Not really the music of my generation but music I absolutely loved and really wanted to be able to entertain myself and I just continued to learn and still learning today at 47 years old.
This song was in the movie “Forrest Gump” that’s when I started liking it again! It was such a thought worthy song with meaning! Imagine running against the wind! Running wild and free! I remember those days!
Very similar story to mine. My dad was a guitar player and songwriter. I grew up on CCR and the Eagles, with some Seger in between. I bought a Les Paul at 18 and have been playing ever since. I surpassed him on guitar but he is a far superior songwriter than me. I'm now 46 and still play every day, though my bar band days are long gone.
Another great song from Bob Seger. Still lots of gems left. Try “Rock and Roll Never Forgets”, “The Fire Down Below” or play both “Travelin’ Man and Beautiful Loser” from Live Bullett album. You have to play them together or you’ll miss one of the greatest transitions from one song to another ever.
OMG I forgot all about that transition. YES!!!!! FanTAStic recommendation!!!!!
"Beautiful Loser", the studio version from the Beautiful Loser album, is an awesome song in its own right, too.
Yes, yes, I loved it when they did that❤ It was Bob Seger for like 7min on the radio. 🫶🫶
Loved hearing Rob saying, “he said, ‘ I’m older now and still running,’” yes, that’s me, the lyrics. 70s songwriting at its best.
Yay, more Seger! It's been a hot minute! This song is such a vibe. You appreciate it even more, the older you get.
I think the next song by him you should check out is; "Like a Rock", or "The Famous final scene". Both phenomenal!! 🤘😊
Absolutely! I've always really dug the song, but it's taken on so much more meaning for me the older I've gotten. The nostalgia, the regrets, the memories, all come back whenever I hear this tune.
Staring 60 square in the eyeballs, you are so right about the song meaning more as you get older. I find a lot of songs are like that now.
"Somewhere Tonight" or "The Ring"
So true. I thought it was a good song when I was young, but it hits so much harder now that I am in my mid 40's.
'Like a Rock'.......BUT.....they should watch his video.
There is no bad Bob Seger song. Love his music, voice, lyrics. He does have some faster songs like Katmandu.
Yes! Totally recommend Katmandu!
The live version is best!
Amen MsKrystal
... and 'Betty Lou's Getting Out Tonight', & 'Get Out Of Denver'- either one will blow your hair back!!
Sunspot Baby and Fire Down Below are bangers, essential and vintage Bob Seger.
One of my favs from Bob Seger. That piano always gives me chills, goosebumps. Touches something deep inside me. And the lyrics. As I age, more layers of meaning are revealed.
The piano reminds me of Bruce Hornsby. And that's meant to be a compliment. Hornsby is great!!!
This one of those rare albums that every song is great.
The keyboard/organ in this song is just killer. The story telling and play on words is superb songwriting.
Night Moves and Turn The Page is a must. For a great cover - his version of Cest la Vie by Chuck Berry ( you will love it)
They did Turn The Page. It's in the video list.
@@cassiereroni thnx
Cest la Vie is a fun song.
They did Night Moves, Main Street and Old Time Rock and Roll as well 🙂
@@ruthparker9756 thank you for info
I use to listen to his 8 track so much I still can hear it changing tracks in the middle of songs. This was one of the that started on 1 track and finished on another.
OMG!!! I hadn't thought about the 8 track tape in a long time. It's true about the the little noise it makes when changing. I had so many 8 tracks.
Ha ha! Mine was a Steely Dan tape. My brain still expects to hear that change-over on a couple of songs.
mine was Bat out of Hell by Meatloaf!
Yes me too happened so much the long fade out and the longer fade back it right in the middle of a lyric
I love how he talks about how when he was younger it was him and Janey running against the wind but now that he’s older and alone he seeks shelter against the wind. Then at the end he says he’s older but he’s still running against the wind. He’s such a story teller.
I saw Bob on the tour for this album. It was definitely one of my favorite concerts ever. If you listen closely, you can hear Bob’s buddies, Glenn Frey and Don Henley singing back up vocals.
My fav Seger song. This guy has the best lyrics of the 70s-80's, but makes you reminisce.
This reminds me of high school. Bob Seger was big mid 70's to mid 80's. He has a down home feel to his music.
"Hollywood Nights" is my favorite by him!
Agreed. No jukejoint was without his hits.
"Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends" - what a killer lyric that is. Great song choice as always you guys, peace and love from Canada!
Seger is a great song writer. You analysis keep getting more and more focused as your musical library increases. Such a joy to visit with you each evening.
My favorite is “Roll Me Away”; it brings tears to my eyes every time.
Yes!!!
A former lover of mine always said that song suited me perfectly. Maybe she was right, but I've always got my eyes on the horizon.
Omg, SUUUUCH a great song!!!
He has so many amazing songs!
Rambling gambling man short but kick ass song!
So many Amazing Albums! Back in 72! .
About 5 years ago, Seger was in concert in Columbus, Ohio for the last time. At the end of the concert, he sat at the piano and sang this to his sister who just lost her husband. There wasn't a dry eye in the house.
Rock and Roll Never Forgets and Still the Same are great ones to react to. Actually you can't go wrong with any of his songs!
"Against The Wind" (1980) peaked @ #5 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was Seger's 17th charted single. Between 1968 thru 1991, Seger charted 32 singles in the Hot 100, 7 in the Top 10 including one #1, (not one you might guess- at least I didn't) -- his 31st single "Shakedown," (1987) from" Beverly Hills Cop 2."
Great to see your name again, Mr. Fadburn. :)
Wouldn't it make for a better reaction if THEY (and other channels) would do this before they listen or after if they want to go in "cold"?
@@Shrykespeare Hi Patrick. Thanks for the greeting.
@@markfadness9204 Anytime, bruh. You and Joel are/were my spirit animals.
@@rsw1227 I guess they like to do it "cold." When I have time, I try to add some stats to give a better understanding re the level of chart success the record attained and when it was released in the span of the artist's career (beginning, middle, end, etc.)
"Shame On the Moon", "Fire Lake", "The Real Love", and "You'll Accompany Me", should be next for Bob Seger.😀❤
Also Night Moves!
Yes all those !
YES!! to all!! 👍😃❣️😃👍
The Fire Inside
You'll Accompany Me, great love song for me.
I was 16 in 1978. Without Bob Seger the special memories of that era I have, would not be the same. His early music is incredible, he is incredible and has quite the arsenal of musical gems. I can name 35 of them right of the top of my head. (Team Bob Seger)
I've been blessed to see Bob more times than I can remember. He was way more popular around Detroit were I'm from than the rest of the country. He used to sell out stadiums for like 6 nights in a row. Nobody can do that now.
Amber I've been listening / watching your channel for about a year now. Truer words were never spoken. Bob seger in my opinion is the quintessential storyteller.
More Bob Segar reactions please. Legendary.
In my early 20s couldn't get enough of Seger...still feel the same.
I'm 80 years old and O HOW TRUE THIS SONG IS 😢😢
"Turn the Page" is still my favorite & I have all his hits. He wrote & sang great songs.
Piano and organ was played by a guy named Paul Harris. It is a great part. He has an excellent touch. Glen Frey of the Eagles sang back ground
So many great Seger hits “Hollywood Nights” “Shinin Brightly” “Feel Like a Number” “ Nutbush City Limits” “ Katmandu” and many more
my dad was driving me to work one Saturday and this came on the radio. My stoic quiet dad got quite emotional listening to this. Great memories.
The return of Seger. Love it. That’s Glen Frye from the Eagles singing background. They were very close. Wrote some lyrics for each other over the years.
I didn't know that that was Glen Frey.
IMO the greatest line ever written "I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then" says so much
I don't know...Like a Rock is pretty amazing.
truer words were never spoken. . .
"Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then" one of the most evocative lines ever written. Who hasn't had that thought run through your mind at some point. And I know that there is a lot of comments about that line. but, that's because it's an incredible piece of wordsmithing and it brings out different emotions in different people but everyone wants to talk about it.
One of the greatest ever songwriters, and when Bob sings, it feels like he's having a one to one conversation with you. One of his best, and often overlooked songs, is "Understanding"......the piano and female backing vocals always give me goose bumps.
When Bob Seger did his Farewell Tour stop thru Tulsa I was in the rafters of BOK Center keeping a spotlight on him at all times for 3hrs making a small fortune being up so high . This was after I rigged all audio for the show . Then when show was over I had to help pack all gear away and load trucks for the next show on the tour.
I caught him in Boston a few years before his farewell with J. Geils. Even in the later years, both could still blow the doors off the place.
"Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then."
I know we all talk about what a great singer he is, but can we talk about his piano playing? My goodness.
I believe Craig Frost was the pianist for most of the band's recordings.
Top ten of all time. Seger is a great songwriter.
"Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in
What to leave out"
The older you get, the deeper you feel those lyrics
Love everything Bob Seger has ever done, Mainstreet has got to be one of my top 5! That's a story if I have ever heard one.
"Night Moves", my favorite Bob Seger song.
I've always felt that Bob Segar had more of a "Midwestern" or "Heartland" rock vibe, like Iowa or Indiana small town sound rather than a country vibe.
Yes, exactly! Not a country artist, but his music resonates across several genres of listeners. If I'm not mistaken, he's from Detroit, Michigan? So much great music from that town.
So glad you keep going back to Bob . I've been to at least 100 concerts . Including huge artist like , the Stones , the who , Elton John ..... but Bob Seger was my favorite. He sounds as good live as he does on his records , and I've never seen an artist smile as much as him . If you want to hear something a little faster by him . Try : Get out of Denver . 😀
“Like A Rock” is another great song. There’s no one alive who listens to the words can’t relate to it. No matter age or race.
ABSOLUTELY !
My all time favorite by Bob :) The lyrics fit my life for a long time.
This is such a great song on so many levels.
Bob Seger is great interstate cruising music. Hit I-75 headed north to the UP at 2 AM doing 80 mph with Bob playing to keep me company.
One of my favorite songs is "Night Moves". You may have done that one. I will look it up if you did.
Another great Seger tune is "Roll Me Away". Imagine hitting the open rode on your motorcycle, letting the world fall behind you. "I could head east, I could go west. It was all up to me to decide."
I don't have to imagine it. It's on my biker playlists. Here's one.
music.ruclips.net/p/PLlFrRPKzi7HjyGKT_4xUTqC1mfcrcmFVv&feature=share
I love pretty much anything by Bob Seger. "Roll Me Away" and "Rock and Roll Never Forgets" are tops though.
💯✨ Storyteller. This deserves 💯 points out of 10. Paul Harris - piano on "Against the Wind"
My all time favorite line in a song : " Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then."
I am so glad that the newer generation can enjoy classical rock music aka real music
The Eagles are singing background Don Henley AND Glenn FRY
I did not know that...Wow...Thanks!
"Trying To Live My Life Without You" and "Feel Like A Number" are great songs by Bob that don't get enough attention. "Trying To Live My Life Without You" is a cover but does sound like a song Bob would write.
I saw Bob Seger in 1998 or 1999 for his 25 year anniversary tour in Pitts. Bar none besides the Eagles the best concert I've ever attended. Absolute Legend!
Don't know what you've already reacted to but these are excellent songs by Seger you should react to just to name a few.
Her Strut
Betty Lou
Night Moves
Old Time Rock and Roll
Roll Me Away
Like A Rock
Turn The Page
Gotta recommend “Night Moves,” “Mainstreet,” “Beautiful Loser,” “Hollywood Nights,” “Black Night”…Oh, I give up, there are just too many great Bob Seger songs. Not a bad one in the bunch, “Her Strut” is a fun one too.
Great lyric that for some reason didn’t fully register until I got older…”Wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then…”. Such a great inversion of the cliche “Wish I knew then what I know now.” Genius.
You've done some soft stuff, but Bob's bangers are even better. Rock and Roll Never Forgets, Katmandu (Live), The Fire Down Below. Feel Like A Number, Sunspot Baby, Betty Lou's Getting Out Tonight, Her Strut, Horizontal Bop, Hollywood Nights ...
Bob Seger & John Mellencamp; 2 of the best American singer/ storytellers of our time. 💯🔥🤙🏽😎
I love both of them. Love mellencamp. Storytellers of the common man , the middle class, or what's left of it.❤😂
Bob Seger , he didn't write songs. He wrote beautiful stories that were set to music. A true bard.
I absolutely love this, it's such a feelgood rhythm 🇬🇧
You’d love “Roll me away”!
He was unbelievable in concert. He is part of my life forever.
Seger sells the song. His voice is full of integrity.
Love you guys. Always playing different genre's of music for everyone to enjoy and experience. Keep up the great content
Bob Seger has so many great songs! Come to Papa is a good one. Like a Rock is really good too
My favorite Bob Seger song BY FAR is "Old Time Rock & Roll", both for the music, & for the sentiment.
Also, the beautiful piano music in "Against the Wind" brought to mind 2 other great piano hits & their singers/players: "The Way It Is" by Bruce Hornsby & The Range, & "No One Is To Blame" by Howard Jones!
Jay & Amber, please react to these songs & artists.
Hey guys, Don here. Been a Seger fan since the mid 70s. Looking back now, I can relate to Something in his lyrics almost every song....in this one especially. Night Moves is also a special favorite. In the song he mentions a 60 Chevy. Mine was a 72 wagon. I can still remember being parked in the woods with a special lady at the time. She was going back to Michigan the next day. We just layed in that big bench front seat and I held her all night...nothing more. Good memories. Ya'll take care. Love you both.
All the bikers I ever knew back in the day loved Bob Seger. Those rough and tumble guys could all sing along to Seger, something just resonated with them.
No 2 ways about it ... Bob Seger is a stunning musician and song writer!!
This is such a fantastic song!! Great reaction video!! 😀
@RobSquadReactions
Man o' man, what a laundry list of GREAT music! My personal favorites are "Roll Me Away", "Fire Lake" and "Feel Like a Number" though "Beautiful Loser" and "Mainstreet" sneak into th #3 spot from time-to-time. I have 19 of his songs on my main playlist (over 600 songs in length now).
It kind of bugs me that the younger generation so want attribute a beautiful - strong voice to a country background. I am not saying they are wrong, but by time the 70's rolled into the station there was a huge litany of strong - beautiful voices coming out of the rock & roll genre and even the blues voice was making a re-emergence into the main stream.
The thing that I love about Mr. Seger is he is one of if not the best ad lib. singers that has ever been in the industry. In every single one of his songs, usually around the break halfway through he starts that ad lib. and does it more and more as the song progresses. My favorite is "night moves". Once he starts down the finish line to that song his ad lib. is off the charts. I know, my music nerd came out on this comment but I cannot help it. LOL! Keep up the good work guys!
Bob had so many huge hits...this one is one of his best. He had a string of albums in the 70's -early 80's, that were so good, they all seemed like Greatest Hits albums, it was amazing.
love Bob Seger, would love a reaction to "Her Strut" would be fantastic! Thank you
He was a huge influence on a singer from your neck of the woods, guy by the name Of Garth Brooks. Segar could do it all, be soft, rock out, blues, old time rock, dude is just legendary.
I was wondering when you would get around to this song. A fantastic singer, songwriter, entertainer, solid kickass band and decades of hits = A trip to be immortalized in The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
Love Bob Seger! Thanks for this.❤
Hey J&A, you have to react to Klaatu, it's a GREAT underrated band, their sound is pretty similar to The Beatles in many songs, in fact during the 70's there was a rumor that their first album was made by The Beatles anonymously. I would love to hear your opinion about them! you can start to listening to "Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft" (wich was covered by Carpenters) or if you want to hear a more beatle sound you can listen to "California Jam" or "Sub-Rosa Subway" :)
To me this is his best song. Majestic and nostalgic and regretful. It ends so powerfully.
You can't beat a Bob Seger song❤❤
