~Tapping into Your Potential Where Others Saw None~
One of the best lines in any song, ever: “wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then.” This song is packed full of gems.
I agree Ginny!!!! What did that line mean to you? My take is that/ I kinda wish I had my innocence back !!!?
@@sheripetrey4257
To me it speaks of regret & not truly appreciating those beautifully random moments which life gifts us from time to time. My conclusion is that ignorance truly is bliss.
I felt this way when first hearing this song in my youth. I've always seemed to be tethered to nostalgia...even prior to having even lived enough to have any.
That was my same thought! It makes me realize how naive I was. Great line.
The genius of Bob Seger is that he writes songs that everyone can see themselves in. That's a true storyteller.
"Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then" is one of the most profound lyrics in rock, IMO.
always makes you think doesnt it
@@frankmerris8821 Every damned time.
"The years rolled slowly past, and I found myself alone... surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends..." Gives these lyrics a run for most profound. If you know, you know...
@@levispann88 Big facts.
“Wish I didn’t know now, what I didn’t know then”…..ain’t that the truth.
You're exactly right, Van. Bob Seger could bring his message to the people. He's a POET, really, telling his stories, you know? By the way, you know his band was called "The Silver Bullet Band", yeah? Anyway, a few other BANGIN' songs of his you may want to react to:. "Her Strut", my FAVE; "Kathmandu", where he just simply blows it out of the water; & "The Fire Down Below" - when you hear it, you'll figure it out! Thanks for rockin' a great American songwriter.
Don't forget The Seger System and Bob Seger and The Last Heard
@@aviatom1 You're exactly right! Always good to hear from another Seger fan! Thanks for your comment.
I lost my father November 3 of this year. This song was my fathers favorite. Now mine. You help me understand my father. Thank you for helping explain this song. My father is no longer running against the wind. He is now in the wind
That is nice to have such a great memory.
That's beautiful, man. Your father lives in your heart, as all our loved ones do.
So sorry for your loss! 🙏
I’m sorry to hear. Hoping you find peace.
❤❤❤❤ I connect to this song on so many levels. God Bless your father, sweetheart.
"Roll Me Away" is spine-tingling in an upbeat, positive way. Check it out, sir! You won't regret it.
Another excellent choice from an artist whose career is full of them!
Bob Seger was absolutely epic in how he helped many other musicians. He’s written many tunes for others . Amazing artist and is legendary.
Been a fan of Bob Seger's since 1979. I don't think he has put out a bad song.
Fan since 1965, welcome aboard, lol
My first night in Japan. I've got jet lag so it's 3:00 in the morning and I'm in bed, wide awake, listening to Casey Kasem's American Top 40 on the Armed Forces Radio Network. Casey plays "Against the Wind." I've heard the song before (Against the wind, yada, yada, yada) but I'd never LISTENED to the song. But laying there in the dark, wide awake with the radio playing low, I listened to Seger's lyrics. The next time I was in a store that sold CDs I bought the "Against the Wind" CD, because damn it, somehow Seger had been spying on my life and wrote a song about it. Still one of my favorite tunes.
Bob always has a message or story to tell. He is an awesome poetic song writer. His lyrics are so unforgettable. “I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then”. Just wow! We all could say that looking back at our youth and journey through life. I love this song. I love Bob Seger.
This was my late Brother’s favorite song. The story of his life. I miss him so much.
Cowboy Ride On.
"wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then"...I now know what you meant Mr. Seger. Great lyrics always from one of the greatest singer/songwriters ever.
Incredible songwriting, an outstanding band, a Steller voice and countless hits = A well deserved welcome into the Rockin Roll Hall of Fame!
You can't go wrong with Bob Seger!
The song is "songumentary" about his life. His youth; his relationship with is first girlfriend. His days as a rising touring musician; the strangers he thought were his friends( his promoters, managers, agents etc). Then his later life as an A lister touring musician running his own production company; deadlines and commitments, what to leave in, what to leave out (o his albums and live tour). It about his evolution from a young boy into manhood, into stardom.
Well stated...you nailed it
"Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends, found myself further and further from my home." ... For so many people, this just nails it.
In this song, as an older man, he reflects back through his life's journey as a young man to now being in the last years of his life. We all do this when we reach that age, when we say "I'm no kid anymore. I'm not able to do certain things the way I once was able to." It's just part of life.
Really nice song, full of truth and wisdom.
Well said.. lord knows I'm there.. at times I cry when I hear this song.. this is one of those times..
Maybe the best storyteller in Rock music. Bob was poetic, Funky, and soulful. He was a hell of an artist from the 70s through the 80s. So many great songs.
This song is timeless and it speaks for everything. This literally is one of the best songs that has ever been written
Thanks for your comments and love towards me, hope you won’t stop someday?
Bob Seger has the ability to connect with the regular people who have experienced these things in life.
Local, Detroit bot, very appraochable to all.
“ Roll Me Away” “Feel Like a Number” “ Nutbush City Limits” “ Ain’t Got no Money” and so many more great Seger hits
Against the Wind is one of my favorite Bob Seger songs Van. Thank you for this video, watching your reactions helps me get a better understanding and or different perspective on some of these songs. I greatly appreciate what you do and how you do it. Keep on keepin on amigo.
life for many people, real words people can relate to young and old then and now, TIMELESS. Rock On!
How beautiful is this? Story of a billion lives....
The moment where Bob Sefer makes sense. Happens to all of us. It’s a great moment.
Many times Bob Seger wrote about life's experiences. Personally this is my theme song through life, and I never forget its meaning because I've never stopped running against the wind. That's not bad for a 74 year old. 2 yr in college, 4 years in the Navy (1.5 Vietnam), 2 more years in college to get my degree. Worked for a company 37.5 years, retired because I was fed up. Two sons graduated from College, and my wife hates me. Still, I'm running against the wind until I die.
Bob seager has been my favorite since the early seventies. Seen him many times in concerts. If you want a real treat listen to his albums from the beginning to his last. Follow the story of life, it's mesmerizing.
My father was a Bob Seeger fan. He passed away in 2005,and I still can't listen to this without crying. I know he'd want me to mention him
It's Seger!
@@jerryparks6123 Oh wow,excuse me. Don't you have anything better to do?
I was so excited to see this pop up. This is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite geniuses! “Wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then”. One of the greatest lyrics ever written. Just love this guy. Saw him in concert in 1980. It was a great show. Thanks Van🎄🌺✌️
The musical production on "Against the wind" is slamming.Love it.Bob is a brilliant story teller,but this one could have just been an instrumental.I would buy it.
The Late Great Eagle Glen Frey, RIP, singing background on this track
His list of great songs is so deep you can hardly go wrong. Of those you likely haven't covered, Still the Same, Hollywood Nights, Katmandu, Fire Lake, and from a later album, covers of Detroit Made and The Devil's Right Hand. Enjoy.
All great songs. I'd add to the list Beautiful Loser and The Fire Inside.
Absolutely.
Listening to Bob's sad song really is heartwarming, fabulous singer. Wish I could have given him a BIG KISS!!
"Back in '72": was an excellent intro to his music for me!!!! And "Heavy Music": gees they are all awesome, reason for seeing him about 10 times!!!!
Against the wind is riding your Harley down a stretch of straight highway with your feet kicked up and enjoying the breeze. I'm too old and crippled now but I can still feel it when I hear this song.
Love Seger ❤️
Thank You! Thank You for recognizing that his lyrics have such deep meaning behind them for his fans! I got to see Bob Live in concert years ago, he was definitely amazing!!
Let's not forget the sax!!! The great Alto Reed!!!!
My brother just wanna let you know I do the same when I listen to black artists, just discovered Bobby Womack, the Poet man that guy can sing. Al Green Shares his soul deeply it's the artist you need to give homage to not to not offend the crowd but the spirit of the artist. F what people think feeling with no words is all you need, it's the melody and emotions that are conveyed that matter. I can tell you're listening I read it on your face.
When we were just out of high school, my friends and I attended the Michigan State Fair near Eight Mile Road and Woodward Avenue and listened to Bob Seger for free at the State Fair outdoor auditorium one evening. Mr. Seger has "been there and done that". I guess sometimes the best thing a person can do is write songs about what they know.
Janey says to me all the time, 'You allow more people to walk on you than anybody I've ever known.' And I always say it's human nature that people are gonna love you sometimes and they're gonna use you sometimes. Knowing the difference between when people are using you and when people truly care about you, that's what "Against the Wind" is all about. The people in that song have weathered the storm, and it's made them much better that they've been able to do it and maintain whatever relationship. To get through is a real victory.
You will always be running against the wind! That's life! The new car payment, addition to the house, always something!
DUDE we're all running against the wind old young big or small running against the wind of Time 😲✌️♥️
What he knows now that he didn't know then is that there is a force that must be overcome to have anything in life. Nothing comes without effort. Finding love doesn't automatically mean "happily ever after".
I love the part where he says “well those drifter days are past me now, I’ve got so much more to think about”
My favorite Bob Seger song. It mirrors my life almost exactly.
"Feel Like a Number is a rock anthem the crowd sings almost louder than him"!!!!!
This is one of my favorites of his if not the favorite. I get confused. But not about farts. Where farts are concerned, I'm very clear.
0:47 don’t ever get rid of the inner child. I keep mine at the ready, at all times.
It's about the head winds of life that sometimes pushes you back in our daily walk of life! The pressures, the setbacks, and the confusion that life brings! But we must collect ourselves, vibe and move forward with one foot in front of the other!
Born and raised in D, now in CA, but back in the day would see Bob Seger everywhere lol no big deal, but he's a big D legend
The break in this song has some of the best piano licks in rock.
Bob Seger like a rock I really think you will like that one
More Bob Seger please. His first big hit is a banger. Ramblin' Gamblin' Man. It’s short but awesome.
That outro always tugs the heart strings.
“What you leave out, and what you leave in”….So true…….
Bob segar is one of my favorite artists hes a 💎
Check out "Still the Same." Def'ly my fav. Seger jam.
This is _another_ one of Bob Seger's timeless songs.
I could tell you felt that line :
*"I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then"*
I was so fortunate to grow up surrounded by this music.
Very profound lyrics "Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then" are so true.
I really appreciate your love and support towards my aspirations, how long have you been my fan?
As popular and making the big money but, when they had they're kids he dropped every and come in off the road to raise his kids, his wife worked and he was a stay at home dad, taking them to school and picking them up and cooking and all that!! Great guy!! His kids had always heard from their friends parents how popular they're dad was and how they had heard him in concert. But, after they were grown they kept after him, prove it dad lol so he decided he'd do a short tour to prove he could still pack a venue so he went back out on the road for about 6months with gray hair and all. He promoted it alil bit and took off and his kids got to see they're dad in concert, which I thought was awesome of him to do that for them. He still had it!!!
Bob Segar is a legend 🤟🤟 HOG FAMILY 4 LIFE 🎯😎
My dude Bob rocks so hard it shakes foundations
Bob Seger is an icon !
🤘❤🇨🇦
Van, I have 43 & 41 year old son's who are terrific husband's , amazing father's & wonderful men...they still talk about passing gas as if they were 5 & 7 years old! So I understand your wife's thoughts. Lol
In "Roll Me Away, such a tribute to his Michigan roots!!!!
Love the piano on this and so many other Seger songs
Seger not Seeger!
@@jerryparks6123 oops. Corrected. Thx
"Against the Wind" explores the space between care and indifference from friends and loved ones. It centers on maturation and memories, like many other Seger songs, and carries a tender, mellow tone. Seger pulled from his high school years as a cross-country runner to form the song's title-a metaphor for growing old. "Against the Wind" became one of Seger's most successful singles, reaching number five on the Billboard Hot 100. It also charted in Canada, Australia, and Belgium. It received high marks from music critics, with many praising Seger's songwriting. The song has been celebrated by generations of contemporary country artists, with covers ranging from Garth Brooks to Brooks & Dunn.
Next song from Bob is Night Moves
He already reacted to Night Moves.
Loved your reaction. I'm a truck driver checking you out while they unload me. Then I'll head up the road running against the wind.
Thanks for your comments and love towards me, hope you won’t stop someday?
We are ALL running against the wind...of life
Bob Seger... my cruisin tunes in the mid 80's
Thanks for your comments and love towards me, hope you won’t stop someday?
I've had this CD for more than 20yrs love all their song.
CD?! I used to have his album 👍🏽
All good
Bob Seger is a legend.
Music has many meanings, and each person can take what they will from it.
Man, I am loving your channel. Love the music reactions,Jordan Peterson and Thomas Sowell reactions . Keep doing your stuff, it's great.
You know your tunes, you know how to dissect music and appreciate its nuances..shows your talent brother... i love it! That song is about a first love....being young and free and then having to grow up
One of my favorites. This song is my first memory. Driving with my oldest brother who's 18 years older then me, we were in our fathers old truck. Only just discovered your videos, the Black Betty video was priceless.
Come to Papa is one of my favorite Seger tunes ,it is funky!
Absolutely one of the greatest artists of all time! A couple of other favorites of mine are -
" OLD TIME ROCK AND ROLL "
&
" WE'VE GOT TONIGHT "
BOB SEGER helped get me through my early 20's! What an icon for me and so many people going through some tough times!
Also, would you please react to the latest release from Home Free, for Christmas it's really really beautiful!
" MARY DID YOU KNOW? "
It's been covered by many but not like this! Home Free has there own special touch on it!
Thanks Van! Appreciate you lots!♥️
Don't play that disco, in 10 minutes, I'll be late for the door was some very relate able lyrics for a lot of people!!!!
A true American treasure.
I think that this song is open to wide interpretation, which is the genius to the writing, and why and how it hits different people different ways. I have always interpreted this as just daily living. We make choices in life. Not everybody in our lives is going to agree with our choices, not matter how major or minor they are. So it could be going against: good advice, bad advice, a friend's advice, personal intuition.... To me it's kind of like a finding-your-way-in-the-world song.
My favorite Seger song.
Always in my Heart is one of Segers best vocal tracks to me Van… he sings awesome in each and every song… he jus SANGS on that track Bro… it’s a nice Valentines Day, Anniversary-type love song… I’d say plenty of little humans is runnin round planet Earth these days cause of that track if I was guessin’ Baaaahahahahahaha Always in My Heart is on the same album as a more well known killer travelin’ down the open highway track called Sightseein’… record they’re on is The Fire Inside…. Title track on that album’s a must listen as well. His piano playing is legendary and I think it makes people overlook his vocal abilities at times…
Great storytelling artist. You should check out Like A Rock, You'll Accompany Me and We Got Tonight
Life is like standing while the world blows past you.
I've always loved the instrumentals in his songs, especially the piano... That piano is always so melodic and I wonder if it's him playing because he does play piano - not just the guitar. Love Bob!
His songs are extremely well-crafted and arranged. His songs so thoroughly composed. Piano by a man named Paul Harris who seems to have been a session musician.
He’s one of the best.
I really appreciate your love and support towards my aspirations, how long have you been my fan?
Bob is the boss.
Goddam legend
One of my favorites. Bob is the man!!!! Again, great insight my man.
I always took the first verse as him remembering “the one that got away”
I admit I love what you are doing now! Showing truths!! Much respect to you and yours!
LFR u are my master tnks from brazil
“Running against the wind” means you need to provide effort while maintaining your life style, “running with the wind” means you are just going with the flow , no particular place to go!
Ah, that's the thing about runnin' against the wind...it's just about the most difficult thing you can do...when the world tells you to go one way...and you go another...the world may beat you down to the point where you just want some shelter...and things just seems to get more complicated the more you try to do your own thing, deadlines and commitments...but as you say, once you learn to love the adversity, something changes, and you love everything that wants to bring you down in a weird way...I don't really know how to explain it, but that's the feeling I get...
Man I'm at the start & thought I'd joke and comment "Me too when I'm jogging with my cousin from the bean farm" & BOOM that's when you made the comment on thinking of a fart lol. Hey do t feel bad I'm a decade older than you. My humor keeps me young 😂 😆
Van, you hit the nail on the head with this song reaction!!!
Awesome song
Great reaction.
