I'm 53. Thanks to you and your brother' I feel 16-25 again. I can't stop grinning. That "OOO" face you make gets me every time. Thank you for bringing the world together. #TwinsTheNewTrend
Same! Thank you thank you Twins! used to listen to music like this when i was younger too, with my whole heart an open mind and joy! Y’all making me do it like that again 😁
My dad wrote to Stevie Wonder as loved his album (vinyl) and called my brother Stephen after him. Stevie wrote back to say thanks for buying the album and congrats on my birth of my brother and was honoured being the inspiration for his name.
Stevie wrote back? What you mean to say is Stevie had a member of his staff (like my cousin Cynthia Robinson, at one time) write your father back a letter he dictated to them as the man is blind but he has people assigned to write for him since I doubt your dad understands Braille.
“As” is my favorite Stevie piece. After all the description and contradiction in that song, he sings “Now ain’t that lovin’ you!!!” I be like, “Yep...sure is, NO doubt!”
Duke Ellington: An innovative conductor and composer. Stevie's "Songs in the Key of Life" should be listened to from beginning to end in one sitting. It's remarkable and timeless ❤️
Absolutely! Best. Album. Ever!!!!! When I hear any song from that album, but especially "Sir Duke" I am brought back to my childhood in the best way possible.
It's so refreshing to see the younger generation not only appreciating older music from the legends, from various genres, but they're also paying attention to the lyrics. The first line is straight FACTS!
I'm 68 . Was lucky enough to see Stevie Wonder when he was at the Uptown late 60s . I used to cut school and jump on the subway. Often I was the only white person . I was hyptnotized by the music Duke Ellington ..what a treasure In these dark times these videos put a smile on my face Thanks
Its so great when music erases age. I saw a kid listening to the weeknd blinding lights...he said his parents ran into the room and started dancing!! 💃
Only discovered your channel this evening (thanks to your Phil Collins reaction doing the rounds on Twitter - and I just want to say "Thank you!". I've been watching your videos for *hours* and the openness of your mind and the genuineness of your reactions has brought this middle-aged white woman such a tonne of joy! Keep it up, and travel well guys :-)
As have I. I couldn't hit that subscribe button fast enough. So refreshing to hear today's generation getting in touch with our music, our parent's music, and in some cases our grandparent's music.
Haha! Same. I was born in 78, my parents were huge music lovers so I now have pretty eclectic tastes . I found this channel on Friday and I have been watching them ALL weekend. Instantly hooked. Love their openness!
I'm 64, and this is the music I was a teenager when this album came out. I was saying along with Stevie at the top of my lungs! I'm so happy that you like his music !
@@TheresaJollyLee my parents both had the other half of this album when they got together, it was a sign lol. sometimes i wonder if this album is magical
We are so damn happy to see some young people appreciate some of the greatness of our day, as well as their own. I used to work in education, so I knew a lot of young black gentlemen like you. Hey, from my late childhood, find some funk. Parlement, Sly & the Family Stone, etc. Love funk.
This is Classic Stevie!!! He is one of the few artists that you really can't choose 1 favorite because there are so many. He & Prince were Great friends & he had such respect for Stevie in how he ran his business in this industry & Stevie loved Prince for all he also accomplished & being true to himself and what a good person he was. Stevie also is a jokester like Prince was. He'd be behind the wheel of the car driving for real (maybe only in the driveway) but he'd freak people out! People swear (its on youtube) he can see. Great reaction! You got it!!! He just turned 70. So glad we still have this icon.🙏
You're completely right about his sense of humor. I saw him live at Jones Beach in 2008 and the show was delayed about an hour because it was raining. When Stevie finally came out on stage he said "I'm sorry for making you all wait but when I saw it was raining I didn't want to get myself electrocuted." The audience burst out laughing 🤣
Yeah - not too long ago he did a similar stunt with James Corden - pretty great! (an ongoing thing with Corden was "carpool karaoke") ruclips.net/video/qqrvm2XDvpQ/видео.html - this is pretty awesome... lol (BTW, Corden can actually sing a bit)
Saw Stevie live in the late 70s. Besides his humor...HIS energy wore the audience out 🤣 His love and generosity to the public extended to covering for another band (that was late). After playing his own 80 minute set; he played until The Family Stone showed up (40 minutes later) albeit... leaving Sly somewhere; too wasted to perform. Stevie is a class act and did his best to save the show 🥰
He said, "with a voice like Ella singin' out, there's no way the band can lose". Al Green is great, but Stevie was talkin' jazz greats like Ella Fitzgerld.
This album is one of the best entire albums ever created. Not just ever created by Stevie Wonder, not just created for R&B, but overall, this album is one of the best. There is not a bad song on this album.
Beverly Johnson I do agree with you. And as an old gal, I do appreciate seeing the younger generations being introduced to my music & even that of my Mom’s.
He's singing about the "Big Band" era of music, particularly in the Black community where they had whole swing orchestras playing the clubs playing the dance music of the era. Started in the 1920's and went into the '50's. Some stars like Duke Ellington (Sir Duke) were legends. Count Basie, Glen Miller, Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald are the musicians and singers of the era he's talking about.
We had the pleasure of seeing Stevie Wonder live on his “Key of Life Tour in Newark, NJ when our son & his fiancée took us as an anniversary gift! It was one of the thrills of our lives!!! He is one of our 5 All Time favorites composers/performers! There are not enough words to fully say the emotion we feel when we hear him sing. By the way we are all multi-generational professional musicians/song writers and made sure our sons & granddaughter were brought up on Stevie Wonder. Keep on doing your thing- I enjoy it a lot!!!
Please react to Stevie "Living just enough for the city" "Overjoyed" "Isn't she lovely" I just called to say I love you. I could go on & on because Stevie has so many hits, but these are a good place to start! 😍👍
I'm a big fan, I'm totally hooked and I'm sad to see I don't think you've heard any of The Spinners? Rubberband Man will blow your mind, I promise! Love to you!!!
Yes!! I'm a music teacher and had my chorus perform this a few years ago. Music is the catalyst! Glad you enjoyed. Its a joy to watch you enjoying incredible music.
I love knowing Tim (and Fred) are getting ready to listen to a masterpiece, classic "banger" as they like to say. Plus, you kinda get reminded of how much fantastic music we had in the past
You MUST listen to this entire album. I was a young teenager when it came out, and it blew my mind. It is the single most influential and important album in my life and I am now 58. I will never ever tire of it. Stevie Wonder is life
I love watching you listen!! If we all listened to each other with your level of openness and willingness, the world would be a better place! Keep it up and keep your passion alive!! Thank you.
Stevie Wonder is a legend. I remember the first time I ever saw him was on a daytime show. He was about 12-13 years of age, he came on, he sang, played the drums, played harmonica, piano and another instrument. I was amazed at his talent. I've always been a huge admirer of him.
You CANNOT GO WRONG with Stevie, a musical genius! Try: A Place in the Sun; Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours; My Cherie Amour; Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday. ALL CLASSICS!
Love Stevie, it's all my parents used to play in the house. I'm a 60s child, yes, that classic music is still RELEVANT! Keep digging in the crates. Enjoy your videos.
You might like jamiroquai, a bit like stevie. Some tracks to check out would be Virtual insanity, return of the space cowboy, too young to die...they even did one on the Godzilla soundtrack called deeper underground
The Virtual Insanity video came out when I was in college, and I STILL go back and watch it every now and then. The song is good, but the video was mind-blowing at the time.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed this song. Back in the day when this song came out my heart jumped for joy to hear Stevie doing a song in big band style of the 40s. Music is so fluid that we get to hear the influence of music styles flow back and forth through time. It did me a lot of good to see you appreciate this song. Keep on doing what you do. I'm happy knowing that though one day I will be gone but the music of my day will continue on.
What’s special about this one too is that he not only pays homage to the Duke & musical influencers in the lyrics, but also mimics them in the instrumentation, runs & changes. Stevie is musical genius. My late dad was a huge jazz & swing fan, & he LOVED this song.
Same here! I've been watching the different videos by these young men as they experience milestones in music. I love that they keep an open mind and find something to appreciate.
“Basie (Count Basie-swing bandleader), Miller (Glen Miller famed trombonist and Swing Era bandleader ) Satchmo ( Louis Armstrong, our country’s greatest musician) and the King of all Sir Duke” (Duke Ellington our country’s greatest bandleader and composer), “and a voice like Ella’s ( Ella Fitzgerald) singin’ out!” All deserve you checking them out! I don’t remember Al Green being mentioned in the song though! (although he’s great too)
Honey, I think everyone on the planet speaks Stevie Wonder, he's been around so long, by now he's reached every man, woman and child on the planet, and ohh God, Songs in the Key of Life, a pioneering, producion, and engineering marvel, the album was a double disc, I played it DAY AND NIGHT , EVERY DAY , even would put the huh "record player", on repeat and go to sleep with what ever side of the album I wanted playing while I slept!,, He got a Grammy for it, can't remember, maybe more than one. This album is in there with the other amazing albums that were extraordinarily produced, groups that took extra , extra care in making, The Wall, Aja, Go For Your Guns(I think the best album by the Isleys, played that too morning noon, and night!), The White album. And Stevie sounded like he had so much fun while he made it, its hard to remember while you listen to it how much professionalism he put into it. You must, YOU MUST, listen to the whole body of this work. "Loves in Need Of Love Today, Pastime Paradise, Summer Soft(beautiful and "flighty", light, and soft, and all light piano keys), Have a Little Talk With God, As(beautiful, heavy on the heart lyrics, thay one "God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed"), Knocks Me Off My Feet, Ordinary Pain, Isn't She Lovely(about his beautiful daughter, and she's squealing and laughing on the song like that song by Aliyah from Dr. Dolittle?), just to name a few, there's no bad song on there, you may find you you like all of them, check it and see, enjoy young man, there are many jewels from the 70's, so, so many, Stevie is a genius, no joke, no lie see for yourself, enjoy, Godspeed, Peace✌
New Birth (Wildflower, It's Been A Long Time, Dream Merchant), Tina Marie (Dear Lover, Out on a Limb, If I Were A Bell, Casanova Brown ), Rick James and Tina Marie (Fire and Desire), Al Jarreau (1976 Take Five, We're in This Love Together), Simply Red (Holding Back the Years, If You Don't Know Me By Now)
Love how your music growth continues! Add some early Stevie to your list....Fingertips part I and II he plays an unbelievable harmonica and he was so young 12 years old! You will continue to be amazed. Just love your posts
Thank you for this glorious channel. You all are a bright spot in a dark time, and I am grateful! I would love to see you react to Paul Simon's Late in the Evening. Again, thank you so much!
ruclips.net/video/xMhj22JwFEo/видео.html "Woman" by Three Dog Night. Three Dog Night is an American rock band. They formed in 1967 with a line-up consisting of vocalists Danny Hutton, Cory Wells, and Chuck Negron. This lineup was soon augmented by Jimmy Greenspoon (keyboards), Joe Schermie (bass), Michael Allsup (guitar), and Floyd Sneed (drums). - Woman" by (Andy Fraser, Paul Rodgers)
Can You PLEASE do one of these for Foreigner "I wanna know what love is" it's a banger track I KNOW you'll love! You think Phil was good, which he IS....check out the one I suggested. I ask in the kindest way! I loved your reaction to that famous beat drop all of us know and love.
I was blessed to see Stevie in concert in Nashville in 2013. When he started playing this, the crowd went crazy!! His musicianship is beyond incredible. Love you guys!!💜
I was around seven years old when this song came out, and I grew up hearing it, but I was today years old when I learned it was called "Sir Duke" and was about Duke Ellington! Since you're enjoying learning about the jazz greats, I'd like to see you do a reaction video to Duke Ellington's "The Swinger's Jump." It's one of my favorite pieces of instrumental music ever.
This could be your theme song! I was 8 when this came out. I remember watching him play this live on our little black and white television. He and his whole band were dressed in white. I think tuxedos. I was blown away. My little 8vyear old self boppin' around the living room.🤣 I'm so glad you're into it. Stevie is truly a Wonder!!
So enjoy watching you listen to "old" stuff! You're right, music can bring us together. If you need a pick me up, try Boogie Shoes by KC and the Sunshine band, and please keep making these connections. I lost a lot of time with your channel the last couple of days. Love to hear the music, and love seeing you experience some surprises!
"Dont you worry bout a thing" a story of hope and joy when haters are in your midst. And 'Misstra Know it All". a story of those that know it all but are empty an hollow.Both Stevie Joints!!!
I've been enjoying your stuff all day. If nothing else just to listen to these songs. You need to do some live Grateful Dead. Best Live Band in history. Every show was different. Best sound engineers. They could make the music come from every direction. Dead Heads would follow show to show. They let people record their shows so there are volumes and volumes out. Literally hundreds of shows. I would say start with 'High Times' or 'Brokedown Palace', but every Head has their different favorites. Literally one of the most productive bands ever. You could do a song a day for a year and not get through them all. As to something more up like Nivanna, check out the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Think Funk Punk Hip Hop. May want to start with 'The Power of Equality'. 'Give it Away' is another banger. However, some of their slower songs are their best. 'Under the Bridge' or 'Breaking That Girl'. All on the same album. "Blood Sugar, Sex Magic. Can't go wrong. Noticed you like Ray Manzarek of the Doors keybord. You may want to check out Jeff Beck's 'Blues Deluxe' on his album Truth. Bad Ass pounding keyboard. Thanks for your positive message, and keep up the good work.
@ThatDamnScottishGuy love Parliament, too,, I've also recommended Balll of Confusion, and Time Has Come Today.,, what about Motorhead, Lemmy kilmister? LOL LOL LOL
Sorry, but I used to live with a bunch of Greatful Dead fans and all I can say is: they play the same chords over and over. The band lacks musicality, in my opinion. They were very popular amongst some people, but probably the most boring band out there.
Pure unadulterated joy to watch your.reaction. Been a Stevie fan since way back when, you bring a new dimension to my listening pleasure. Million thanks to you and your brother for making an old biddy smile.
Here it is March 15 2021 it's 10:49 p.m. and this young man makes me smile just to watch his reaction is so adorable he's watching Stevie Wonder right now I love this love it
I just discovered you today. I'm an old lady from the 70s and 80s and I love that you're willing to listen to these songs and you love them. My suggestions would be the following: Johnny Cash--Folsom Prison Blues Live, Earth, Wind and Fire--On and On, Prince--Little Nikki, David Bowie--China Girl, David Bowie--Heroes, Dave Brubeck--Take Five, Madonna--Like a Prayer, Michael Jackson--Thriller. Every generation of music builds and takes their inspiration from the last. **Earth, Wind and Fire had a big influence on Prince.
I listen to this song EVERY morning bc it really does make you feel it all over and those HORNS! This is the BEST Stevie song! And 100% agree... Music is what brings people together!
I'm 53. Thanks to you and your brother' I feel 16-25 again. I can't stop grinning. That "OOO" face you make gets me every time. Thank you for bringing the world together. #TwinsTheNewTrend
Yes, when this guy connects with a song, the expression of pain on his face (it's really intense pleasure) makes makes me happy.
"Thank you for bringing the world together". This is the nicest comment I've ever seen. And it's completely true ❤
40 year old here feeling the same - love watching these reactions 🥰
Same! Thank you thank you Twins! used to listen to music like this when i was younger too, with my whole heart an open mind and joy! Y’all making me do it like that again 😁
I freaking love them.. i am so glad that they are doing this.. music is timeless and loving their reactions brings tears to my eyes
Bill Withers- “Ain’t No Sunshine” one of the best old blues/soul songs ever. Give it a listen.
Yes!
Omg 1 of my favorite songs ever!
YES! This is a must watch.
Absolutely!
Another vote for listening to "Ain't No Sunshine" a song about a man missing his female partner.
My dad wrote to Stevie Wonder as loved his album (vinyl) and called my brother Stephen after him. Stevie wrote back to say thanks for buying the album and congrats on my birth of my brother and was honoured being the inspiration for his name.
Classy
Stevie wrote back? What you mean to say is Stevie had a member of his staff (like my cousin Cynthia Robinson, at one time) write your father back a letter he dictated to them as the man is blind but he has people assigned to write for him since I doubt your dad understands Braille.
@@ujimajame4601 of course. I didn't realise I needed to go into specifics x
We all agree that this is a fabulous talented gentleman. You can't hear this without feeling uplifted.
@@annegan6749 I was only clarifying the process so that people who know Stevie Wonder is blind do not question the validity of your statement!
Stevie Wonder is one of the greatest artists of all time. The song “As” is one of the best on this album.
As is a true masterpiece
Lauressa N. It is indeed
“As” is my favorite Stevie piece. After all the description and contradiction in that song, he sings “Now ain’t that lovin’ you!!!” I be like, “Yep...sure is, NO doubt!”
As & Master Blaster are Epic
Duke Ellington: An innovative
conductor and composer. Stevie's
"Songs in the Key of Life" should be listened to from beginning to end in one sitting. It's remarkable and timeless ❤️
Yes!
Yes! One of the great albums of all time by a genius!
Yes,
I entirely agree
Absolutely! Best. Album. Ever!!!!! When I hear any song from that album, but especially "Sir Duke" I am brought back to my childhood in the best way possible.
One of the best albums ever...
Do “Living for the city.” Stevie Wonder.
I agree!
That song is ahhh. No words.
YES! I used to listen to that track on repeat with my best friend, sitting in my dad's Volvo.
Living for the city is a good one.
Yes!!!!!
“The language we all understand” such truth.
I play jazz and soul.
Jejus.
I will this!!! Love.
Truth and Truth 💯
It's so refreshing to see the younger generation not only appreciating older music from the legends, from various genres, but they're also paying attention to the lyrics. The first line is straight FACTS!
What happened to the word "truth". These kids talk like aliens these days.
Watching someone hear this chorus for the first time was heartwarming.
I'm 68 . Was lucky enough to see Stevie Wonder when he was at the Uptown late 60s . I used to cut school and jump on the subway. Often I was the only white person . I was hyptnotized by the music
Duke Ellington ..what a treasure
In these dark times these videos put a smile on my face
Thanks
Just saw the twins on CNN this a.m.!!
Exactly!
Its so great when music erases age. I saw a kid listening to the weeknd blinding lights...he said his parents ran into the room and started dancing!! 💃
Heartwarming is absolutely the right word 😊
"The language we all understand". I think you've found your theme song. Love what you are doing; never stop.
Only discovered your channel this evening (thanks to your Phil Collins reaction doing the rounds on Twitter - and I just want to say "Thank you!".

Keep it up, and travel well guys :-)
"Grimcoat"- I'm just learning about these young men off the Phil Collins reaction! Their reaction was priceless!!!!
me too! just saw it on the news
Seeing these first time reactions to some of my favourite songs of all time is such a joy.
As have I. I couldn't hit that subscribe button fast enough. So refreshing to hear today's generation getting in touch with our music, our parent's music, and in some cases our grandparent's music.
Haha! Same. I was born in 78, my parents were huge music lovers so I now have pretty eclectic tastes . I found this channel on Friday and I have been watching them ALL weekend. Instantly hooked. Love their openness!
I'm 64, and this is the music I was a teenager when this album came out. I was saying along with Stevie at the top of my lungs! I'm so happy that you like his music !
When this album came out, everyone was blasting it every day... a magnificent album.
True and it was on the radio constantly too!
I got this album (2 cassette set) for my 16th birthday present. I was living in Fairbanks, Alaska at the time. That was a loooong time (43 years) ago.
@@TheresaJollyLee my parents both had the other half of this album when they got together, it was a sign lol. sometimes i wonder if this album is magical
You got all us old white ladies jibber-jabbering at you. Poor guys.
I'M 50 and Black and I am right here with you!!!
But we know all the music dude!
ROTFL
We are so damn happy to see some young people appreciate some of the greatness of our day, as well as their own. I used to work in education, so I knew a lot of young black gentlemen like you.
Hey, from my late childhood, find some funk. Parlement, Sly & the Family Stone, etc. Love funk.
Ya just want to make them a sandwich :-)
This is Classic Stevie!!! He is one of the few artists that you really can't choose 1 favorite because there are so many. He & Prince were Great friends & he had such respect for Stevie in how he ran his business in this industry & Stevie loved Prince for all he also accomplished & being true to himself and what a good person he was.

Facts.
Exactly!
"Hey Love" when Stevie was still wet behind the ears is early insight into his talent and greatness, don't sleep on this one!
Good grief, man. You gained 5k subscribers in like... what... an hour? You’re killin’ it!
They were trending number one on Twitter this morning
They were in UK press today too. The Independent.
Violet Bell That is so good to hear, as these two deserve to be recognised.
So young, and appreciative of different genres; well done to them..
Beverly Johnson totally agree. They have uplifted me so much. Just so genuine!
Beverly Johnson
I do agree with you. And as an old gal, I do appreciate seeing the younger generations being introduced to my music & even that of my Mom’s.
I think the twins would lose their minds hearing What You Won’t do for Love -Bobby Caldwell
One of my all time favorites, but I didn’t know until a few years ago that Bobby Caldwell was white.
tjl1961and2 exactly why they would lose their minds haha
Jason Villa Michael Caldwell, What u won't do for Love, I play that song a lot, even today. Good song
ANYTHING by Stevie! How about Master Blaster? 🙌🏼. BTW, this is his best album!
I agree my favorite by him too. Love "As" ..probably my favorite on the album.
My favorite from him.
Master Blaster is fire!🔥
He's singing about the "Big Band" era of music, particularly in the Black community where they had whole swing orchestras playing the clubs playing the dance music of the era. Started in the 1920's and went into the '50's. Some stars like Duke Ellington (Sir Duke) were legends. Count Basie, Glen Miller, Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald are the musicians and singers of the era he's talking about.
I love Stevie Wonder's "I Wish"
My favorite!!! Yes please!!
An absolute must! Along with living for the city! And many others!
We had the pleasure of seeing Stevie Wonder live on his “Key of Life Tour in Newark, NJ when our son & his fiancée took us as an anniversary gift! It was one of the thrills of our lives!!!

Please react to Stevie "Living just enough for the city" "Overjoyed" "Isn't she lovely" I just called to say I love you. I could go on & on because Stevie has so many hits, but these are a good place to start! 😍👍
'Overjoyed'! Good one!
monicawism YES! over joyed!!!!! and as
I'm a big fan, I'm totally hooked and I'm sad to see I don't think you've heard any of The Spinners? Rubberband Man will blow your mind, I promise! Love to you!!!
Love the Spinners!
That's one of my happy songs
How you can not feel fantastic listening to this?! On your feet!
I like how he just casually says that Stevie Wonder “did his thing”.
I’m like: “It’s frickin’ Stevie Wonder!” 😭
Awesome video.
I'm right there with you! It's awesome and cringe worthy all at the same time!
🤣🤣🤣💯‼️‼️
Yes!! I'm a music teacher and had my chorus perform this a few years ago. Music is the catalyst! Glad you enjoyed. Its a joy to watch you enjoying incredible music.
My kids' music teacher had them singing this song in the 90's, too. It's timeless!
I love knowing Tim (and Fred) are getting ready to listen to a masterpiece, classic "banger" as they like to say. Plus, you kinda get reminded of how much fantastic music we had in the past
Please do "Parliament" " Flashlight" thanks for keeping me smiling !!!💙💙
Everybody’s got a little light under the sun!
"Flashlight" is great funk! The video of him coming out of the mothership with his cane. They were so darn cool back then.
Yes Flashlight
I just suggested them on another answer! Love funk!
He and Prince played most of their own instruments in the studio. He's a freaking genius!!
I'm white, British and younger than you. This is one of my favourite songs.
I was 8 when this song came out.....I'll be 52 in September.
"Knocks Me Off My Feet", "As".
You MUST listen to this entire album. I was a young teenager when it came out, and it blew my mind. It is the single most influential and important album in my life and I am now 58. I will never ever tire of it. Stevie Wonder is life
I love watching you listen!!

Keep it up and keep your passion alive!!
Thank you.
Stevie Wonder is a legend. I remember the first time I ever saw him was on a daytime show. He was about 12-13 years of age, he came on, he sang, played the drums, played harmonica, piano and another instrument. I was amazed at his talent. I've always been a huge admirer of him.
And he is still performing!!!
And he wrote all the music and arranged it! He is a genius
Another Stevie song to listen to. "Don't Worry About A Thing" My favorite I think
This entire album is one of Stevie's best, and he has a lot of great ones. 🙌🏾
One of the best albums. Period. He's a musical genius.
He is truly amazing!!!
Well he isn't called "Wonder" for no reason
Stevie Wonder is one of the best. Try “For Once In My Life” or “Signed, Sealed, Delivered”
From a blind school in Bay City Michigan to a world inspiration. Stevie is legend.
You CANNOT GO WRONG with Stevie, a musical genius! Try: A Place in the Sun; Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours; My Cherie Amour; Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday. ALL CLASSICS!
Love Stevie, it's all my parents used to play in the house. I'm a 60s child, yes, that classic music is still RELEVANT! Keep digging in the crates. Enjoy your videos.
You might like jamiroquai, a bit like stevie. Some tracks to check out would be Virtual insanity, return of the space cowboy, too young to die...they even did one on the Godzilla soundtrack called deeper underground
I Love You for saying that. Jamiroquai singing with Stevie in London was fantastic..( HUGE Jamiroquai fan......)
The Virtual Insanity video came out when I was in college, and I STILL go back and watch it every now and then. The song is good, but the video was mind-blowing at the time.
Steven keith hey that sounds great, I’ll see if I can find a vid of it
Lothorn honestly I hadn’t thought about them for years until hearing Stevie tonight and that video was the one I thought of
"Cosmic Girl" FTW
I'm so glad that you enjoyed this song. Back in the day when this song came out my heart jumped for joy to hear Stevie doing a song in big band style of the 40s. Music is so fluid that we get to hear the influence of music styles flow back and forth through time. It did me a lot of good to see you appreciate this song. Keep on doing what you do. I'm happy knowing that though one day I will be gone but the music of my day will continue on.
Best Stevie Wonder songs: Overjoyed, Don't you worry about a thing, As, Someday at Christmas, All I Do, Lately, and Ribbon in the Sky
I’m partial to Jesus Children of America
All is fair in love, I never dreamed youll leave in summer, Rocket love.
Masterblaster (Jammin) is the ultimate Stevie banger
Awww. Ribbon In The Sky. I just listened to that on my way home from work today. I also love Golden Lady from Innervisions
And Living for the city!
What’s special about this one too is that he not only pays homage to the Duke & musical influencers in the lyrics, but also mimics them in the instrumentation, runs & changes. Stevie is musical genius. My late dad was a huge jazz & swing fan, & he LOVED this song.
I saw you earlier with "In The Air Tonight" and liked subscribed new fan here :)
Ha! I did the same lol
Me and my hubby too! These 2 lads are just great! Love their take on 'new'music
I ended up spending a few hours last night watching further videos after the Phil video went viral :D
@@jamesdeanlovespunk lol me too! For 3 days now. I saw them on TV with Cedric.
Same here! I've been watching the different videos by these young men as they experience milestones in music. I love that they keep an open mind and find something to appreciate.
Your enthusiasm is so infectious, I'm loving this music all over again in ways I never did before. Keep it up!
Played this in my High School Jazz Band, what a great song.
Darrell Crone Us too. One of the most fun to play.
Well, I'll say we TRIED to play it in jazz band. 😄 All of Stevie's songs are very difficult to play.
“Basie (Count Basie-swing bandleader), Miller (Glen Miller famed trombonist and Swing Era bandleader ) Satchmo ( Louis Armstrong, our country’s greatest musician) and the King of all Sir Duke” (Duke Ellington our country’s greatest bandleader and composer), “and a voice like Ella’s ( Ella Fitzgerald) singin’ out!” All deserve you checking them out! I don’t remember Al Green being mentioned in the song though! (although he’s great too)
Stevie Wonder is one of the Greatest talented people in the music 🎶 world!☮☮❤❤☺☺
Honey, I think everyone on the planet speaks Stevie Wonder, he's been around so long, by now he's reached every man, woman and child on the planet, and ohh God, Songs in the Key of Life, a pioneering, producion, and engineering marvel, the album was a double disc, I played it DAY AND NIGHT , EVERY DAY , even would put the huh "record player", on repeat and go to sleep with what ever side of the album I wanted playing while I slept!,, He got a Grammy for it, can't remember, maybe more than one. This album is in there with the other amazing albums that were extraordinarily produced, groups that took extra , extra care in making, The Wall, Aja, Go For Your Guns(I think the best album by the Isleys, played that too morning noon, and night!), The White album. And Stevie sounded like he had so much fun while he made it, its hard to remember while you listen to it how much professionalism he put into it. You must,
YOU MUST, listen to the whole body of this work. "Loves in Need Of Love Today,
Pastime Paradise, Summer Soft(beautiful and "flighty", light, and soft, and all light piano keys), Have a Little Talk With God, As(beautiful, heavy on the heart lyrics, thay one "God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed"), Knocks Me Off My Feet, Ordinary Pain, Isn't She Lovely(about his beautiful daughter, and she's squealing and laughing on the song like that song by Aliyah from Dr. Dolittle?), just to name a few, there's no bad song on there, you may find you you like all of them, check it and see, enjoy young man, there are many jewels from the 70's, so, so many,
Stevie is a genius, no joke, no lie see for yourself, enjoy, Godspeed, Peace✌
I love it young brother. You could do a whole tv series with Stevie Wonder songs. Check out Earth Wind and Fire though -- "Reasons" or "Fantasy".
September by Earth, Wind, and Fire
EWF for sure!
I absolutely agree! EWF "Fantasy", for sure!
New Birth (Wildflower, It's Been A Long Time, Dream Merchant), Tina
Marie (Dear Lover, Out on a Limb, If I Were A Bell, Casanova Brown ),
Rick James and Tina Marie (Fire and Desire), Al Jarreau (1976 Take Five,
We're in This Love Together), Simply Red (Holding Back the Years, If
You Don't Know Me By Now)
Love how your music growth continues! Add some early Stevie to your list....Fingertips part I and II he plays an unbelievable harmonica and he was so young 12 years old! You will continue to be amazed. Just love your posts
Great review, please do " You Haven done nothing" Higher Ground" "Living for the city" and "Sunshine of my life".
Thank you for this glorious channel. You all are a bright spot in a dark time, and I am grateful! I would love to see you react to Paul Simon's Late in the Evening. Again, thank you so much!
You guys are so fun to watch! I love "Sir Duke". You gotta check out "I Wish" from the same album!
This my favorite song of his! You can feel it all over!
Imma need to talk to y’alls momma and daddy - how have you just heard Stevie Wonder?! 😂
Lol... I keep thinking that too.
They did a video on that topic
I love it! Yes - we are so different but music is the language we all understand! (And gotta love Stevie! Good choice!)
Chris Isaak “Wicked Game” and Bobby Caldwell “What You Won’t Do For Love”
Both are great! I bought Chris Isaaks album in the 80's. Very popular in the Netherlands, Europe.
Yes!
Love those horns, one of my all time favorites.
Sir Stevie Wonder singing out Sir Duke! Another masterpiece, from the Brass, rhythm and vocals, nothing but Gold!
Great reaction, greater message.
That whole "Songs in the Key of Life" album is FANTASTIC!
I want you to listen to the WHOLE album, "Songs In the Key of Life." It will be one of your favorites!!! Brilliant Album!!!

"Woman" by Three Dog Night.
Three Dog Night is an American rock band. They formed in 1967 with a line-up consisting of vocalists Danny Hutton, Cory Wells, and Chuck Negron. This lineup was soon augmented by Jimmy Greenspoon (keyboards), Joe Schermie (bass), Michael Allsup (guitar), and Floyd Sneed (drums). - Woman" by (Andy Fraser, Paul Rodgers)
ruclips.net/video/7nqcL0mjMjw/видео.html "Livin' On The Edge" by Aerosmith is a song for today. Check it out!!!
I would enjoy y’all doing Cameo “Word Up”
I agree!
Yep! Word up!
Can You PLEASE do one of these for Foreigner "I wanna know what love is" it's a banger track I KNOW you'll love! You think Phil was good, which he IS....check out the one I suggested. I ask in the kindest way! I loved your reaction to that famous beat drop all of us know and love.
Oh yes, Foreigner is a great choice! A fav of mine.
OMG! I wanna know what love isssssss! Freakin love that song!
Right I cant get enough of the song! It's my all time favorite. One that brings serious chills to my bones and warmth over my soul at the same time.
I was blessed to see Stevie in concert in Nashville in 2013. When he started playing this, the crowd went crazy!! His musicianship is beyond incredible. Love you guys!!💜
I remember him from when he used to be known as Little Stevie Wonder. He has had a long and prolific career.
He’s absolutely marvelous! C’mon man!!😃😃
I was around seven years old when this song came out, and I grew up hearing it, but I was today years old when I learned it was called "Sir Duke" and was about Duke Ellington! Since you're enjoying learning about the jazz greats, I'd like to see you do a reaction video to Duke Ellington's "The Swinger's Jump." It's one of my favorite pieces of instrumental music ever.
Earth, Wind, and Fire’s “In the Stone” is one I always bop like this to, and I think y’all reacting to it would be great.
That's the joint
This could be your theme song! I was 8 when this came out. I remember watching him play this live on our little black and white television. He and his whole band were dressed in white. I think tuxedos. I was blown away. My little 8vyear old self boppin' around the living room.🤣 I'm so glad you're into it. Stevie is truly a Wonder!!
Check out Bill Withers, Al Green and Marvin Gaye!
So enjoy watching you listen to "old" stuff! You're right, music can bring us together. If you need a pick me up, try Boogie Shoes by KC and the Sunshine band, and please keep making these connections. I lost a lot of time with your channel the last couple of days. Love to hear the music, and love seeing you experience some surprises!
"Dont you worry bout a thing" a story of hope and joy when haters are in your midst. And 'Misstra Know it All". a story of those that know it all but are empty an hollow.Both Stevie Joints!!!
Don't you worry bout a thing is one of his best songs also -- yes such a great FEEL GOOD song!
Just wanted yall to know that yall made TMZ with yall's reaction to Phil Collins and made him trending on Friday. Way to go guys!!!👏👏👏
Alright, alright! That made me smile! Congrats to the twins!!!
I've been enjoying your stuff all day. If nothing else just to listen to these songs. You need to do some live Grateful Dead. Best Live Band in history. Every show was different. Best sound engineers. They could make the music come from every direction. Dead Heads would follow show to show. They let people record their shows so there are volumes and volumes out. Literally hundreds of shows. I would say start with 'High Times' or 'Brokedown Palace', but every Head has their different favorites. Literally one of the most productive bands ever. You could do a song a day for a year and not get through them all. As to something more up like Nivanna, check out the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Think Funk Punk Hip Hop. May want to start with 'The Power of Equality'. 'Give it Away' is another banger. However, some of their slower songs are their best. 'Under the Bridge' or 'Breaking That Girl'. All on the same album. "Blood Sugar, Sex Magic. Can't go wrong. Noticed you like Ray Manzarek of the Doors keybord. You may want to check out Jeff Beck's 'Blues Deluxe' on his album Truth. Bad Ass pounding keyboard. Thanks for your positive message, and keep up the good work.
@ThatDamnScottishGuy love Parliament, too,, I've also recommended Balll of Confusion, and Time Has Come Today.,, what about Motorhead, Lemmy kilmister? LOL LOL LOL
The Grateful Dead are a band for dirty hippies.
I second that Red Hot Chili Peppers suggestion.
Sorry, but I used to live with a bunch of Greatful Dead fans and all I can say is: they play the same chords over and over. The band lacks musicality, in my opinion. They were very popular amongst some people, but probably the most boring band out there.
Ripple was one of my favorite dead songs. Van Morrison " Into the mystic"
This whole album is a statement! Every song is amazing. Listen to it all and enjoy!
I would love to see your reaction to hearing Little Richard - Tutti Frutti.
Pure unadulterated joy to watch your.reaction. Been a Stevie fan since way back when, you bring a new dimension to my listening pleasure. Million thanks to you and your brother for making an old biddy smile.
The album ' Songs in the Key of Life " is one of the greatest albums of all time.
Love Stevie Wonder...I live in NYC and listen to his when on the subway/bus as this always makes me happy!!! This is a classic! ❤
BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE, by Talking Heads (from the film Stop Making Sense)
Keep on listening to Stevie. He plays a lot of the instruments too. He's amazing.
React to "Never dreamed you leave in summer". I love his earlier work!
I'm a fan all the way back to "Fingertips". But I agree. The 70s is Stevie's most ambitious decade of creativity 🥰
Gorgeous song
I was singing this into a hairbrush at age 3 on shag carpet. This entire album threads through my childhood. So glad you listened and loved it!!!
You should listen to The Brand New Heavies, song Never Stop...
Here it is March 15 2021 it's 10:49 p.m. and this young man makes me smile just to watch his reaction is so adorable he's watching Stevie Wonder right now I love this love it
Listen to T-Rex '20th Century Boy.' Thin Lizzy 'Boys Are Back In Town', 'Parisienne Walkways,' 'Old Town.'
“The Boys Are Back In Town” is one of the best Rock songs ever!
I just discovered you today. I'm an old lady from the 70s and 80s and I love that you're willing to listen to these songs and you love them.
My suggestions would be the following: Johnny Cash--Folsom Prison Blues Live, Earth, Wind and Fire--On and On, Prince--Little Nikki, David Bowie--China Girl, David Bowie--Heroes, Dave Brubeck--Take Five, Madonna--Like a Prayer, Michael Jackson--Thriller. Every generation of music builds and takes their inspiration from the last. **Earth, Wind and Fire had a big influence on Prince.
Miss Lady,
I like the way you think. Eclectic taste is the best taste.
Alright guys! I like what y’all are doing! Pull up some “Living Colour” Cult of personality! Make sure you strap in for this one!!!
Which Way to to America
They’ve done this one
I was a wee lass in ‘76 and EVERY station was playing stuff off this album. It was that damn good!
He speaks the truth. How about Ebony and Ivory duet with Paul McCartney? I think we all need that right about now with all the racial tensions.
Also, "Isn't She Lovely." He wrote it for his daughter. Fabulous song.
Cool song! Try "I Wish" and "As" from the same album or go back to the beginning with "Fingertips Pt 2" 🎧 💓 🎶
I listen to this song EVERY morning bc it really does make you feel it all over and those HORNS! This is the BEST Stevie song! And 100% agree... Music is what brings people together!
