definitely an album that isn't in my wheelhouse but i'm glad i gave it a good shot. definitely found a few new favourites :)
next week is a heavy metal pick, and then a punk album after that! already up on my patreon - patreon.com/kirawasareactor
It's very weird to me that you think every song on an album should be uptempo.
I agree completely
Preference is not expectation.
She’s a victim of low attention span
Anyone that says this album isn't in their wheelhouse just aint got that dog in them
Sounds like a classic case of someone who loves funk but doesn't get soul music. I used to be exactly like that when I was 3. Give it time, the soul ballads grow on you the more you expose yourself to them. You jumped in the deep end with Stevie. Start more accessible like Aretha Franklin, Dionne Warwick, Bill Withers, Whitney Houston, Ashford & Simpson, and then work your way up to Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, Barry White, Isaac Hayes, Gamble & Huff.
Also, Stevie is so influential in all genres of music that it's backward to say that he sounds like Beyonce, etc. He was the original influence. The brass in most of the music is from him coming up in Motown. Young folks exploring older music is cool because they can see where stuff originated.
I was never a big fan of Isn’t She Lovely… then I had a daughter. Now I can’t hear it without crying 😂
Exactly… as if she were to have a child, her version of it would be a meandering 20+ minute nothing burger 🙄
@@chancebrown106 hey man I have no idea what you’re talking about thanks!!
@@dylanholmes8186 I’m agreeing with you and also saying that while yes the song may go on a bit, that compared to the fact that this song is about Stevie’s first born, that if the reactor had a child, that she probably wouldn’t be so quick to down the song and would probably make a 20 minute lackluster track about her first born if she were in Stevie and or your shoes…
"Isn't She Lovely" was a song written about his Daughter. "Hotter Than July" is another great album.
Great reaction! I’m a huge Stevie fan and though many people believe this is his best album, my personal favorite is his previous album “Fulfillingness’ First Finale”. The two previous albums “Talking Book” and “Innervisions” are also great listens.
I put Music of my mind above all, cause it was fresh and groundbreaking. As if a new music was born on earth. Followed by Fulfillingness FF and Talking book
My personal favorite is Musiquarium.
It's really sad that you don't appreciate the genius of Stevie...but of course you wouldn't!!! It's really good to see that you're the only critic that don't like his true sense and feelings of his discography 😢...ijs however I do appreciate your honesty 🤔
I crooked my eyebrow a bit at some of your observations until I realized you're more into Metal than Soul/R&B, that's cool, different strokes as they say. Perhaps, mid-70s Isley Brothers would be a better "gateway" for you, esp. "Go For Your Guns."
On the original vinyl it was a double album that concluded with 'another star' and the final four songs were on a bonus 7"
Maybe you had to be there. This project took us on a complete journey. No obligation to be dance music or about love or social action. It was a bunch of things. It is important to listen to “sides” straight through. As and Another Star are 2 are the best duos ever
You seriously need to give Steely Dan's album 'Aja' a reaction, you won't be disappointed.
"As" has long been a favorite love song. Spiritual and profound. Such poetry. Such love. Ain't that lovin'!
After viewing this channel I’m more convinced than ever that: far more people “listen”-than the chosen few who actually “hear”.
Such is life.
This is STEVIE WONDER you’re attempting to critique, child.
Please be aware that:
you are in no way qualified to do that.
But, fret not. When life has done it’s job of putting wrinkles on your face and experience in your heart?…give this album another listen. The
unrecognized wisdom that you can’t possibly see today?…will be patiently waiting for you later. That is:
if you survive your youth.
Blessings.
“Wisdom is wasted on the old.
Youth is wasted on the young.”
George Bernard Shaw
Love your reactions. Genuine. "As" is definitely a favorite for me, along with "I Wish"
you're videos are so comforting💜 I'd love to see you're reaction to a Talking Heads album especially with Stop Making Sense coming back into cinemas this year!!
I like Stevie but some of this material isn't for me as well. I personally think the album Innervisions is a better listen. It is half the length of this album and is much more focused on upbeat material.
this album is def a grower for a lot of people
Yeah I love Innervisions is one of my favorites
Regardless of your own opinion on the album and the various tracks, you remind me a lot of myself listening to music as a kid. Very instinctive, very sensitive to the lyrics' writing and how deep or shallow they might seem to me, maybe sensitive to certain moods more than others and always jumping to my own quick impressions in a very narrow-minded way. If I'm not mistaken, you were born in the 90s just as I was? In fact, I'm a big Björk fan and if I understood correctly, you're a Radiohead fan. The problem with being a reactor is that it tends to make you consume lots of music in a very throw-away manner. You keep what impressed you and you trash the rest. But hoping for you that you also grow out of that way of listening, as I did. You will probably lose that high but you will enjoy yourself a lot more than you do now.
I Am Singing is such a beautiful ballad!!!
Happy moving Kira. Hope the plant 🪴 handles the stress. Just received my Cure tickets for May 16th ! Can't wait too see Mr.Smith one last time.
There's Bach, Beethoven, Brahms and Stevie Wonder. Not sure what you're talking about here. This is genius level music!!!!
My mother had this album but she only liked a few songs on it and never played the whole thing (ah, the good ol' days where you had to buy the whole album just to get at the few good songs you liked). I heard "Sir Duke", "I wish" and maybe a couple of others on repeat. For the longest time I never knew 'As' was on the album and asked everyone which Stevie Wonder song had the lyrics about the 'earth going around the sun' because I was in LOVE with that song. 😂
Loved your absolute joy while listening to As!
I love when you are excited by As and even more amazing song comes in
Have you ever think about doing a live reaction on here? Could be fun. Everyone chatting with you. Just asking about that. Enjoy your reaction.
Yeah I'm with you on this - it's too long overall. Some amazing highlights for sure, but Talking Book (1972)
and Innervisions (1973) are so much more concise and therefore better overall in my opinion.
It's as if there's something too self indulgent about 'classic' double albums where they needed someone
to come in and say "right cut this one", "trim this down", etc.
(I feel the same way about Pink Floyd's The Wall and The Beatles's White Album too)
A few Stevie Wonder greats..(IMHO)
Fingertips Pt 2
Uptight (Everything's Alright)
A Place In The Sun
I Was Made To Love Her
For Once In My Life
My Cherie Amour
Signed Sealed Delivered I'm Yours
Superstition
Higher Ground
OK, that's enough.
I hope you love your new place!
I'm glad you know and love the Stevie's songs. He was a Pop Music genious. His music bring us smiles and good feelings, I can't say the same about black music today.
you're delusional, stevie's verses are one of a kind... they are poetry...
genia Kira, saw your reactions of Purple, Maiden and Portishead again
I wonder when you will update the other channel
😇
your reaction to RTL is great too, my favorite Metallica
You would probably like stevies album 'Music of my mind'. It's a bit more original sounding and more him in my opinion.
It feels strange leaving the place that has practically been your home during the pandemic, right? All that quarantine and social distancing to look back on 😆 but you did make a ton of videos and even started a new channel during that time, so at least there's that 😉
I would recommend Innervisions . Thanks you're welcome x
Are you a fan of Jane’s Addiction? I’d love to see you react to the albums Nothing’s Shocking and Ritual de lo Habitual
People who think that music always has to be fast ARE NOT LOVERS OF MUSIC…
Thank you for saying that
Good reaction. I think Innervisions, Talking Book, Fulfillingness and Music of my Mind are better albums.
Hello
Dream Theater: Hell’s Kitchen + Lines in the sand. You’ll love it!
13:09 I think you'll like Mary Spender's Lone Wolf EP.
Superstition and Master Blaster are also great songs by Stevie Wonder
Swans - The Seer.
I’m with you on this one. It would have been a great single album. Though still not as good as Innervisions. That one’s great all the way through.
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath soon?
OH NO… NOT SLOW MUSIC!!!!!!!!!😒
