One of the greatest songs ever made
This is a great version
Great reaction too.
Ever!
@@mikes4248 They did this old folk song justice.
A comment from an 80 year old Englishman in the US. This group is my age. We were born in ww2, with bombs raining down on us. My house was hit by a v1, and we had a twin engine Heinkel crash land behind us. Our parents were pretty well mentally scarred from 6 years of war, as were there children.These young people climbed up out of those ashes. Many parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles dead. Most of mine died in ww1, then the rest, especially the women from bombs, in ww2.
Americans did not know this kind of horror, as the war was fought in Europe. My point being, that life was very difficult in England, and many were hungry through the 1950s, paying off the war debt to the US. Just mentioning this, to perhaps help understand what these young people had to overcome.
Believe it or not, that audio track was done in a single take!
That's great info, I've never heard of that being done 😮
A classic paradigm of a band that all members complete the other. Eric Burdon in vocals , strong , passioned and with the distortion that the song needs, Alan Price at keyboards with so powerful solo parts , John Steel keeps unstopping the bluesy jazz rythm at drums , Chas Chandler at Bass Guitar and Hilton Valentine at Guitar completes the magic. A timeless classic !
For our younger, umm, gentlemen . . . Chas Chandler married a Playboy Centerfold. Unfortunately, the high life caught up to him - he died of a heart attack. So, if you marry a Playboy Centerfold make sure to eat your Wheaties.
@@slypperyfoxThanks for interesting info.
The song was made in 1964..His voice was Amazing..I was 14 yr. In 1964....No other voice like Eric Burton.....
i am born 1972 and i grew up with this music.... ever a great journey back to the good old times... ^^
In my 70 plus years of following music there has never been a voice as powerful as Eric's.
I was born in the 70s and I asked myself a while ago how I might have perceived the artists of the 1960s if I'd been a teenager then. I think I would have enjoyed the music of both the Beatles and the Stones...but I suspect I would have wanted to go to bed with Eric. :)
"What a stunning, stunning song ..." Listen to it 25 more times, and somehow it continues to stun. Then you shake your head, listen a little later, and go get stunned all over again. Great music does that. Thanks for the reax. Wow!
PRobably up to 50 or 60 times listening to it - it never gets old.
Absolutely strong and beautiful.
The song was written 150 years ago, originally a poem, a warning to the young to avoid sinning. ''The House of the Rising Sun'' was a Brothel. the warning was to a young Girl.
Eric Burdon the singer was 23 when this was done but sounded much older. The 2nd guitarist became Jimmi Hendrix's manager and the guy on the organ/piano was Alan Price who later had his own group.
Hilton Valentine on guitar was 21 when this was recorded. Bryan "Chas" Chandler on Bass, who later managed Jimi Hendrix, was 26.
Чес Чендлер ? Он еще был менеджером SLADE , по -моему ? Рано умер . А недавно и Хилтон Валентайн (R.I.P.)
@@user-kh9hl7oz5k Yes after he left Jimi Hendrix during the recording of Electric Ladyland, Chas Chandler managed SLADE.
Alan had a big hit in 1978 with Jarrow Song.
Love Eric Burdon & The Animals. They were part of the British Invasion along with The Beatles, Rolling Stones & others. People are always shocked that Eric has such a different unique deeper voice. The Animals had a lot of great hits in the 60's such as "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place", "Baby Let Me Take You Home", "I'm Crying", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood", "Bring It On Home to Me", "It's My Life", "Don't Bring Me Down", "See See Rider", "Monterey", "Sky Pilot" etc. Eric later joined the funk rock band "War" & they had a few hits "Spill the Wine" & "Tobacco Road".
Sky Pilot is my favorite of theirs. And then Monterey with War.
Bands with so much Raw and True talent back then. Not the synthetic stuff they put out now.
" Not the synthetic stuff they put out now."
That's the same crap the old farts said about the music of us kids in the 1980s. They were misguided and so are the eople who say the same about the youngers of today. Don't be that guy. Don't blame others for being out of the loop.
Help break the chain.
@@carlossaraiva8213 If you have to use autotune to cut a track then the music is not authentic, so it is synthetic. There really is no other definition. Raw talent -vs- augmented talent.
@@polywog9591 Ya? And is using an electric guitar "synthetic?" Whats the difference between using autotune on your voice and a pedal on your guitar? Where do you draw the line?
@@nathanpapp432 Easy. I can't play an electric guitar with or without a pedal, to save my life if I had to. What would happen? Someone would unplug the amplifier to make that Gawd awful noise go away. To make music with an electic guitar with or without a pedal takes TALENT. Now if I could pick up that same guitar with zero talent and pipe it into some computer device to transform my crap playing skills into something Jimi Hendrix might have played, would you say that I have any talent at all? No. You would say I was cheating.
@@polywog9591 What if using autotune is a deliberate, stylistic choice? And there is no computer device that can turn bad guitar playing into Jimi Hendrix. And if you made some really good, interesting music, i honestly wouldnt care how you made it.
It is called talent! The vocals and the keyboard are definitive. Sadly very very few performers today could get anywhere near the abilities of musicians and singers from this era; check them out if you doubt.
Eric Burdon is still going, he's 82 now. Love this version on RUclips.
Fun fact: The Animals bassist, Chas Chandler became the manager for Jimi Hendrix and brought him to fame in London, the the USA.
That was so sweet watching Sarah so moved by that song. ❤
I grew up in the 60s and 70s hearing it constantly on the radio and played by local bands, but never ever saw a video of it. Interesting to see how deadpan Eric Burden expression was though his vocals so intense and moving!
What a great reaction, Sarah! ❤
Eric Burden's vocals are legendary. 😊
The legendary "The House of the Rising Sun" was included by Rolling Stone magazine among the greatest songs of all time. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has announced that this 1964 hit by the British group The Animals is one of several pieces of music that shaped rock and roll as a style. Good wine does not age over the years: already in 1999, which is close to us, the song was awarded the Grammy Hall of Fame award.
Despite its length, this track was in the charts for weeks...
An interesting story. During the second world war many American soldiers spent 1942-1944 in England. bringing with them American music. One type of American music of the time was Black Blues music out of the US South. In the 1960s, white English musicians adopted American styles (and whole songs) and exported them back to America in the 1960s. The Animals, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Dave Clark Five, The Yardbirds, The Kinks and many others composed and performed American (Black) Blues, American Country, American Folk and took it back across the Atlantic. It was called the British Invasion. Ironically, it was young Americans listening to American style music, written and sung by British musicians.
It's been 59 years since I first heard this song. I still love it.
There are songs, classic songs, then there are creations like this. A song so profound it transcends music.
Summer of 1964 --Eric Burdon & the Animals meant business--Raw Talent-watch /the Animals perform on the Ed Sullivan show to see it live-on youtube
The control he has ovrr his vocal chords ❤
So happy you made this song part of your life ☺️
always loved that song!
it affected me the same way ...at its release...i was a freshman in college, and Will be 77
1 of the best classics of all time. 😊
They were such a great band. Nice to see you enjoy this 😅
Another Great Band From a Woking class background in the Northeast of England. 🏴 The organist went on to sing Simon Smith and his amazing dancing Bear. His name was Alan Price.
This is an ancient song. The Animals werent the first..but probably the best.
Loved it, Sarah! How appropriate that you did this one soon after your Louis Armstrong reaction. They are singing about a New Orleans "house of ill repute" similar to the one young Louis started off in playing his trumpet when he was a young boy. Well done! 🙂
It is a powerful song! Great voice and instruments. You really got into it and gave a great reaction!
It was very impressive to see your physical change as this music washed over you. It's one of the best songs out of the 1960's & for many of us, our favorite song!
I was still in High School when I went to see The Animals live in Baltimore. I can still hear them do that nuMber and remember exactly where I sat in the audience I am now in my 70’s
The 60's thru the 80's had such great raw talent. I'm 70 yrs old and I can go back in time each time I hear the songs. It was a great time to be alive!
this was one of my grandfathers favorite songs, he passed almost two years ago. thank you for this.
I, so so miss this kind of amazing music!
I nearly wore out my record. Times were magic and we got change. Great music from so many, but this was one of the top Power Bands...
Recorded in 1964, almost 60 years old! The lead singer, Eric Burdon, was in his early 20’s. He’s still with us at age 82. Great song!
I love these reaction videos. Because I already know how amazing these tracks are, I want these people to feel something of what I did, all those years ago. To tell the truth, I was very young when this record was released - but I heard it so many times while I was growing up. But this song never gets old... never!
Sometimes I wonder how people in their twenties and thirties (today) have managed NOT to have heard these songs before. But obviously, there must always be a first time. Really glad that you loved this classic. It's a classic for good reason. 💖
Loving your channel. Bouncing from one video to the next and hearing my childhood soundtrack. My granny loved this song and taught me to love it too. The vocals and instrumental are so beautiful and haunting! This makes me think back to being in her living room listening to it together.
Wow, that is one powerful song, thanks Sarah for putting this great video back to the present time! Cheers!
The Animals were in the states long before the Beatles early 60s I believe. Understood the blues like no other.❤😊😊❤❤❤❤❤😊
Nope. The Animals' first U.S. tour, starting in York, Penn., in September 1964. The Beatles kicked down the door for everyone else in February 1964 with a #1 record, and appearances on the Ed Sullivan Show, the only variety show that really counted back then on TV. The first group to follow the Beatles was in March 1964...the Dave Clark Five....USA record companies were NOT interested in British musicians, singer or groups, assuming they would not sell [dumb adult record executives]. I Want to Hold Your Hand changed their mind when Capital records, owned by the British EMI company, finally relented and released that single in December 1963. Whether people like the Beatles or not is immaterial to history. EVERYTHING changed because of the Beatles back then, long hair, guitar group music, self expression....no Beatles, probably no Animals....that's just the way it came down.
Wonderful to see the pure joy hearing it has given you....
It wasn't live; the guitars were not plugged in; it was a video made up for tv...but presented very well.
1964 The English Band They were on the Ed Sullivan Show, live. We only had the big reel to reel recording machines. No funny business with voices, that was the real deal. Eric Burden and The Animals...Beatles were top of the radio charts for so long, suddenly it was this song.
This was back when people had to sing with their own voices and not Dr. up their instruments and voices with all of their Internet devices. Great reaction, thanks and God bless.
"HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN" WAS WRITTEN AROUND 1912 ABOUT TO 1916, THE SONG WRITER IS UNKNOWN I FOUND A COPY OF THE SONG BACK IN THE 1960'S 1965'S (ABOUT) AT THE LOS ANGELES PUBLIC LIBRARY DOWN TOWN LOS ANGELES, THE SONG WRITER IS UNKNOWN, THE ANIMALS DID CHANGE SOME WORDS TO BRING IT UP TO DATE BUT THEY DID NOT WRITE THE OR COMPOSE THE SONG, BUT HAVE A GREAT JOURNEY LISTENING TO THAT SONG "HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN".
Loved watching your facial reatctions to the power and range of his voice .. you are a stunningly beautiful youg lady ... so wow to you too!! i was 22 in 1964 a magical time ... xxxh
Singer Eric Burdon, with one of the most powerful voices in rock. This British Invasion band has a plethora of great hits. This one is a cover of an old R&B song. Thanks for your reaction.
I believe the true origin of the song is unknown but bits and pieces have been passed down over the years. It’s believed the lyrics were found on the walls inside a prison cell of a man about to be put to death for murdering a women. Lead belly is the first musician I know of performing it but I’m sure it goes beyond that. It’s THE tale of old blues musicians and have been done by many. But The Animals has always been my favorite rendition. That band did not get the credit they so greatly deserved. To this day, I listen to them all the time and they were way before my generation. They are timeless.
@@imogen31499 Indeed, as with many of the old blues & folk melodies, the origins of this song are uncertain. There were SO many amazing bands that arose in the UK during the British Invasion, that a lot of them got "lost in the shuffle". I agree, though - the Animals were a stand-out. Thanks for your reply.
I'm 59 years old now and this song was the first song of my life that I remember as a child. It's the song of my life, so to speak.🤔😉
Legend. Epic. Musical perfection. Really liked your reaction ❤
I love this era of music, the keyboard was very influential in a lot of bands.
VERY mind blowing to realize that the music your grandparents listened to at your age was FAR SUPERIOR to ANYTHING you've got today....
This is one of the first songs on bass i learned. Great Song Great Reaction =)
Soy español 🇪🇸😎.. tengo 65... viejo rockero...y está canción es mítica en mi país desde que yo recuerdo....... disfruta mucho ❤️😎🇪🇸🇪🇸
My favourite song of all time
Simply good music 😚
HI SARAH! 😊SO THIS WHAT YOU CALL INSANELYYYY GREAT MUSIC OF THE 60'S ( PSYCHEDELIC ROCK ) 😊
The song originated from the mining country of the U.K. It then went to America where several people shaped and changed it. Lead Belly did it but many did it even before him. Dylan did it and so did Joan Baez even before the Animals.
I saw them live in 1964 in Blackpool, they were one the better groups live.
This song was considered super hardcore in the 60s.. and I agree with your reaction. I had it along with you, and I've seen the video many many times 😊
I used to go to Friday night teen dance at a local swim club when this song came out They banned this song. Can you imagine They must
Be rolling in their graves listening to
Todays lyrics
he is miming that's why his face is relaxed, no one recorded pop videos live. He doesn't have a mic and the guitars aren't plugged in might be a clue
Lovely reaction video. Thank you!
This performance was mimed at the direction of his producer to make a very early video. So the sound is a studio recording. You can find the real live performances of the Animals. Here is a real treat that you would like, it's the Animals' song Sky Pilot. It's a Vietnam War era song about a Chaplain doing what a wartime chapelain does and the tragedy of war. It's a fantastic song.
Thats pretty much how 99.99% of music videos are made. Its almost never a live performance or live singing in an official music video.
Mimed from their one take recording. This clip was filmed in 1964 or 65 as part of a UK colour film called Pop Gear for paying theatre release. This explains the early high quality color images we luckily have for this mimed from the record performance and also a few other top UK only music artists from when the film was made.
RUclips has quite a few segments from this UK movie Pop Gear with the US contribution being to re title it Go Go Mania and add a few intro segments to satisfy the US audience.
A RUclips search for Pop Gear Go Go Mania shows the segments :
ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=pop+gear+go+go+mania
The intro by TCM explains the background of the film. While some of these segments were likely to be shown on US Colour TV much later , the source would originally be this high quality film.
Rising Sun is the standout, but the Honeycombs with Have I the Right is a landmark too,
In 1964 images not recorded on film would be much lower quality videotape, not the notable quality images used here. Especially with the inferior US NTSC standards often called Never The Same Colour.
So lucky the film was made instead of relying on low standard video tape recordings that were usually taped over anyway to save tape cost money or made by filming a TV screen with poor quality results. I would be amazed to see any video recording from 1964 up to this standard of image quality. A better sound source can easily replace or lesser quality film track early source in RUclips postings these days.
These films mainly used mimed performances as the vast majority of theatre audiences wanted to hear the music performance as they knew it from the records.
Hope this helps people who have the colorized and vidoetape theories that usually pop up.
@@johnd8892 Very comprehensive comment. Appreciated. Greetings from western US
Ug. Sky pilot is a bit of a Hippy dirge and not at all the original Animals but a whole new group.
This was a song from the girls point of view, which adds a lot more to it. I love what you are doing to keep good music alive.
More Animals tracks to try should include "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place" "I'm Crying" & "Don't let me be Misunderstood"
If you haven't heard it try "The Black Plague" one of his songs not often heard.
Another fave of mine is "When I was Young,"...
That's when a Watkins Copycat echo machine was considered high tech!!!! It's pure talent. These lads were the fist generation English after WWII, they didn't have it easy growing up and you can tell.
Sarah that was Soooooo cool!! Haven't seen that for years. Thanks, for pleasing an elderly subscriber.😅
what a great theme from 🇺🇾 excellent reaction
This is great. But their Track Don't let me be Misunderstood. Is outstanding. Next reaction please.
Best reaction I've seen so far. One that matches my own every time I listen to this. 👏👏
Love your reactions❤
HERE'S ANOTHER ONE SARAH : DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD 😊
Recorded in one take between shows on the road.
These boys were the truth
The Animals, "House of the rising sun", This song is special to me. This was my first modern Baby Boomer's Rock Music that I was exposed to. It was Eric Burton 'powerful soulful story telling voice that drew me in as a fan of the now sound in the 60"s, at the innocent age of 7 listening to 45's @ a friends basement, and his older sister's record collection. Nearly 60 years later my musical appreciation for those Groovy, Magical 4 Decades of Brilliant Masterpieces from all those Bands, Duets Solo Artist. Male and Female. Skin color of everyone. It's become music of all generations. The neat thing is. God gave Music to us. How lucky we've been ❤ Peace....
No modern-day music, can give me such feelings as this style of music from the 60-70ties.
Love you and your reactions !!
Your a doll and Motown hits me the same way! 🎸
Chas Chandler used to go to my mams house when they were kids for tea, in Wrekenton, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, UK.. They also used to dance in Newcastle Upon Tyne at a night club called the Oxford....
Great reaction. You so obviously felt it.
I'm glad you reacted to this beautiful song! I was glad to see that you enjoyed it a lot. I know her when I was little, my father had many cassettes with songs of this style. I'm using the translator, I hope it's understood...
Other suggestions from those times:
- “Reflections of my life” (1967) of Marmalade
-"Silence is golden"(1967) of Tremeloes
-"A whiter shade of pale" (1967) of Procol Harum
-"Young girl" of (60´s) of Gary Puckett & The Union Gap
- "California dreaming" of The mamas & the papas
Enjoy!
¡Saludos, desde Argentina!
I’ve heard this song for decades but never with your wonderful smile. 😊
One of the best songs and singer gotta love hi
Muy buena música
I remember hearing this for the first time and it sent chills down my spine, and the record company did not want to put it out as they thought it was too long. Most records then were 3 minutes or so. But if this is fire (and it is) listen to Joan Baez version, that is ice.
Can't tell you great it is to see youngsters (I'm 77) listening to songs like this from my teen years (18 at that time) and react like my friends and I did. You just listened to what I still feel is a song in top 5 all time of rock history (blues also in my mind).
I was born in 1956 so I was very young in 1964 , and I dont understand english back then. I cryd like a river ,I hade goespumps all over. Eric Burdons voice blow me a way , I love this song so much. Erics voice is so powefull you fell what he sings ,the Animals original line up was Briliant, my favorit group of all in the 60,s and I still gets goespumps of this song . Listen to Going Down Slow, As the crow flys, we gotta get out of this place ,Bring it home to me.
Ai que bom ele ainda está vivo ! Deus abençoe a sua VD e sua voz linda que ele tem ❤

just to piggy-back on what the previous posted noted, they were an amazing band with tons of great songs :)
This phenomenal traditional song goes back to the early 1900s OR POSSIBLY EARLIER. So many people covered this song, however, this version was the very most popular. In the 1960s, this was the most played song in the pool hall I frequented. In fact, the Animals had the most played songs in Wally's pool hall. Try some of their other hits like WE GOTTA GET OUT OF THIS PLACE, WHEN I WAS YOUNG, and DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD. The Animals really resonated with the rebel crowd.
Probably older:
"Like many folk songs, "The House of the Rising Sun" is of uncertain authorship. Musicologists say that it is based on the tradition of broadside ballads, and thematically it has some resemblance to the 16th-century ballad "The Unfortunate Rake",
I think you'd love "Don't Let Me be Misunderstood" as well. Peace, Love!!
Alan Price from my home town of Jarrow playing the organ was a life long friend of my late father ❤.
nice reaction, great song and band
My boyfriend earned a kiss from me one night when we were out listening to live music by identifying this song from just the first few notes. --A shared love of music is a beautiful thing!
Great reaction you were really feelin it
Bands back in the day used to play that kind of music all the time it had feeling it had meaning and look at the garbage that is being played now
Eric Burton / what Voice......Talent& whole group..,
The bass player, Chas Chandler, discovered Jimi Hendrix in NY and brought him to England... the rest is history.
I must have been great to see the animals live in concert🎉
Take a dude back to a time when he thought of whiskey small towns and hard times... and the House of the Rising Sun... and a tumble weed in the distance with a Sergio Leone whistle song going
