The fact that legitimate arguments could be made for nominating EVERY SONG as "best song on the record" is mindblowing. What a record.
if you really love silk sonic and their soul sound, i'd recommend this song if you're looking for new music :) ruclips.net/video/jpJ0mS5NPlI/видео.html
Definitely
The best song is Put on a Smile.
As soon as I heard Leave the Door Open I knew it was going to be a classic album
Many reactions, people mention the contrast in vocal tone, with Andy as raspy & Bruno smooth. They both have more flexibility than that, especially Bruno. But if you hear that last riff Andy sings on the fade of Leave the Door, it’s so smooth, maybe because it’s in his lower range. He also talked about how Bruno pushed him vocally on this project, & gotta say, compared to previous work, Andy is definitely bringin his vocal game next level on this project in particular, on this song & Blast Off. Bruno? Well, he lives up to his planetary stage name, Mars, cause thas where dat brotha came from on this track. But great singers with smooth voices who could also be powerful come to mind, because they could go hard & dip into rasp when needed. Jackie Wilson, Stevie, Donny Hathaway & even Smokey, come to mind, but the one most relatable to Bruno I think is Sam Cooke. All those love songs he sang so smooth with perfect intonation, & then here comes this intro with strings & the band orchestra stops. Sam belts ‘I Was Borrrrrnn by a river’, for A Change Is Gonna Cone. I hadn’t heard him do that on any other song, but you hear the rasp clearly there. He probably did it a lot singin on the church tours. Anyway their flexibility is one of many elements that makes the whole album so enjoyable Great remarks & reaction. 👍
That’s actually Anderson opening up the song! He’s been talking about in interviews how Bruno pushed him vocally to take his voice to places he never thought it could go. Bruno also encouraged him to stop smoking so his voice could do those things & go to those places!
Bobby Womack of our time
@@titan316thatsmyattitude6 close
In this case, I feel like anderson's smoking helped his voice out lol. He has a raspiness in his voice that's probably due to him smoking, but it most definitely helps out in contrast to Bruno's voice. I don't advocate smoking, but in this case, it helped out haha
edit: holy shit, he actually touches up on this at like 6:50 loool! i wrote this comment before that part lmao
You know what’s funny? Bruno actually smokes cigarettes.
@@realitycheck12em Bruno looks like he does a lot of drugs
"This record is a five-course meal, you guys."
And there it is. Finally someone managed to put in words exactly how utterly joyful and fulfilling the experience of listening to this album is.
Thank you sir. That was spot on.
I'd argue it's an eight course meal.
@@therealbonkman9224 Mate, that's an open buffet. 😆
As soon as I saw Bruno say Babyface was involved with this song… I knew it would be the one
This song will literally make a grown man cry period, this is what regret sounds like, in the most straightforward way possible period and emotionally grabs you by the throat. And it doesn't matter if the person you lost was a girlfriend, significant other, wife. This song explains the darkness of that moment and the aftermath in a way that is very understandable especially if you've gone through it yourself
Amen
if you really love silk sonic and their soul sound, i'd recommend this song if you're looking for new music :) ruclips.net/video/jpJ0mS5NPlI/видео.html
This song makes my girl mad at me just so we can kiss and make up
@@theresponsiblyviolentcitizen wtf
It has made this grown woman cry a couple times. When this song hits, it hits DEEP. What Bruno does here is out of this world.
The Raspy voice of .Paak sounds so old school and soulful and Bruno’s voice adds a modern twist. I can’t stop listening to this, it’s on repeat.
Actually, Bruno's voice is old school too like the great falsetto's Curtis Mayfield and Eddie Kendricks.
Goosebumps in 80% of the song and almost cried at the end. It’s was just beautiful.
That key change did caught me off guard. Holy fuck theyre beasts! And bruno cries, was offfff the roooooofff babyyyyyy! And paak's drum fillssssss oooohhh myyyy
Indeed
When you can make the Drums cry with the song i think we are witnessing "GRAETNESS"
Amen
One of the best songs of the decade
You could literally do a whole music class just to study the structure of this album. 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely!
I'm a 63 year old grown a$$ man. This song made me cry.
It’s such a touching piece. Crying is good!!!
Silk Sonic released a cover of Con Funk Shun's 1982 hit 'Love's Train' as a Valentine's Day gift to their fans.
Anderson sounds like Bobby Womack on this song. It's my favorite on the album.
I’m 45…lost my father last September. I wish he could’ve heard this album. The influences of Heatwave, Earth Wind & Fire, Issac Hayes, Temptations and Motown, The Spinners, and Bootsie Collins. Bruno brings to mind the Shalamar version of Howard Hewitt. Andersen has put those world on notice regarding his vocals. They are incredible musicians matched perfectly.
Your father sounds like a very special man. God rest his soul.
Also Anderson’s drumming on this track blows my mind every time.
Best album I've heard in years, pure excellence.
Bruno’s vocals put me in the mind of Sam Cook on this track. Absolutely beautiful.
I'm obsessed with this album. Bootsy is all over this album, it drips Bootsy. Reminds me of my pre teen years my mom turning me on to the Motown greats and The O'Jays, Earth Wind and Fire I could go on. I have been crying to my wife for years for someone to get back to this music. It's amazing how real instruments sound so warm and touches the soul. I could go on forever about this album...
Still listening in 2024! Love your reaction to the genius that is Bruno Mars!
Anderson paak is a insane drummer.
Check out Apple Music interview with Ebro. Bruno talks how he called up baby face to hear the song...baby face also helped Bruno on too good to say goodbye record on 24k. It’s a great interview
To Good to Say Goodbye is a gem. I think it's a glimpse of what was to come with Silk Sonic.
Too Good To Say Goodbye is so underrated, amazing song
it makes me shaky and cry. it's too emotional, as another comments say, it doesn't matter why, it just makes you cry, Love when music touch the very soul, and become emotional. Can't stop dancing with Fly as me, or feel sexy with after last night. Too well done songs.
What this album does for me is it honestly makes me appreciate the time and effort because this piece of work is just masterful. So many emotions through a half hour of music is incredible
It's a perfect song. Bruno's vocal is insane. I love Andy's performance too that make it up an incredible song in the album. Love your rection as always. The best so far.
Great reaction to the best song on the album.
“This record is a 5 course meal, you guys.”
Facts!!!
every song on this album pulls from a different sound from all the major 70's groups... stylistics, o'jays, rare earth, the spinners, EWF, the isley bros,... this is the sound of putting your emotions into your music.... I absolutely can't wait for you to review 777.. to me, that's the hidden jewel of this album....
Amazing Album ...Album of the Year in my eyes....philly soul,earth,wind&fire, funk, etc..so good its tasty
That combination is awesome, beyond words... takes me back to the days of a good slow dance, a lost art by this generation. Their voices are just enough contrast to give you everything you need like the groups of the 70s... contrast Dramatics, After 7 (80s), soooooooooo smooth... silky, smooth, sonic boom out the box of music.
This is my fave track on this album. And I'm not kidding, I've been so immersed in the song I had a music video visual in my mind. That was PHENOMENAL.
I've seen bruno 3 times, probably the best show I've ever been to and I saw Prince in his prime, and this song is without a doubt one of the best pieces of Art I've ever heard. They put you in their songs which are relatable to anyone and everyone. Thank you for doing these videos.
The OJay's!! Also Gerald Levert when it first starts . Also the Old Philly Sound. Gamble and Huff!!
I'm so obsessed with this album rn... but this song, this SONG... is beyond time and space, really. We just don't deserve it. I feel so blessed when I hear Bruno. Is that what a true genius sounds like? Definitely.
Totally agree but for me it's Anderson Paak that makes it 🔥, Bruno is amazing too ofc!
Love this record!! I know a lot of people think Bruno is African-American, but he is actually Puerto Rican and Filipino, but Anderson is Korean and African-American… no matter their descent, they are an amazing duo!!
Thanks for setting the record straight on the ethnicities but I think what he is paying homage too is the style of of music in which they are replicating which the black culture created in soul and funk I don't think he was referencing their ethnicities but when I read this I thought the same thing that neither of them is really black till I thought about it and realized he's talking about the style of music
It's typical for Filipinos to embrace black culture when migrating to the US. I think they somehow connect with being a minority and a lot of Filipinos have found their way into social circles of african americans that's why they're into b-boying and hip hop.
Nobody thinks that lol
He's talking about the culture not the race
@@90youngyankee Anderson is mostly black his father's black and his mother is half black and Korean so that makes him 3/4 black
This is what I call real music. I am going to say it again this is a Master Piece.
The Apple Music interview has been mentioned before, the insights into the songs from that interview are golden. Especially for this song. Bruno presents the the song to Anderson and say whatcha think. Anderson says it's trash. They work on it until Bruno thinks they might just have a song, that's after Anderson sets the pace from behind the drums. Bruno being the perfectionist he is thinks it needs a little something more, something special and he dials Babyface and tells him to come over. The magic happens and we are gifted with perfection! ❤ Anderson's drumming on this track are pure 🔥 As strong and important as the vocals IMO. Thank you for another fun informative review!
I love it!

11:37 that’s that “She’s Out Of My Life” by MJ
First time I heard it. I cried. No specific recall of memories or anything. It just felt amazing. If this doesn't everyone, those souls are lost.
This song is so lush and full of pure talent and emotion. The first time I heard it, I felt emotionally spent afterwards. It takes you on a ride, and you can feel every amazing yet painful moment. The vocals and the drum fills, my god! The tension in the song is what really got me hooked, and I never knew how to explain it til I watched this reaction. It is by far my favorite song on the whole album.
Gorgeous song, so moving
This song breaks my heart....its just to perfect. 100yrs from now and this will still be listened to for the masterpiece it is. The best album of our generation
This is the best song I’ve heard in
awhile
definitely AOTY for 2023 Grammies and song and record of year for several songs. Duo of the year too ❤️❤️ This whole album moves my Soul 🙏🙏 and is Fiyah 🔥🔥☄️☄️⚡️⚡️💫💫
Best album in a loooong time! Positive lyrics, catchy chords and smooth voices.... it's a win!!
This might be my favorite song off the album
Hey man thanks for respecting my culture's music
I feel so blessed to be able to be influenced and inspired by your culture and your music. I am truly blessed.
This whole album makes me feel wonderful. Then, I play it again.
Yes!
Me too!! I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve listened to this entire album!! 😍💕🔥
I love this album I wasn’t alive when Philly soul and Marvin graye Motown soul was at its height… but my Dad flooded me with Blue magic, dellfonics , And all the groups of the 1970s and 1980s and this album dipped right in the 70s… and be being a 80s baby I love it
Good dad you have
@@MusicShed indeed the same songs that interested the lil boy listening to the radio I get pass down to my son
That key change with the drums in the background is just “chef’s kiss* goosebumps everytime!
I bought 5 copies of their CD to give out as Christmas presents, I think so much of it.
This album has the making of a great movie or even broadway. I have a feeling these guys are shooting for that. You can see it in their videos!
This is my favorite song on the album. When I saw them live they were sitting on a park bench in the rain. Very reminiscent of 60's doo-wap soul. And that key change.... chills every time.
David, you play so beautifully. I love your pro reaction. Bruno slays it here on the vocals and Andy is killing it on the drums. Incredible performance, productions and arrangements!
LM, TY!
@@MusicShed The are mixing old school with new school. But it kinda reminds of Con Funk Shun, T-Connection, The Dazz Band. The also did that transposing and modulations. But I also hear James Brown, even some EWF-ish sounds.
I LOVE the layering of the vocals. The instrumentation, mixing and recording is truly impeccable.
Very looking forward to your reaction to the rest of the tracks and of 1 track in particular.
@laurens Mulder in curious if what song "in particular" you were waiting on
@@sevans336able "Blast Off"
🧑🚀 Definitely worth watching!
This is my favorite on the album and of course I'm really enjoying Silk Sonic but maaaaaan can we just talk about YOU for a second? With YOUR gifted self... I LOVE it! Your attention to detail is everything!! You. Get. It! Good Lord, what sign are you? (hahahha, how's THAT for old school!). Your reactions rock! Heck, I should do a reaction to your reaction! I am so glad I discovered your channel! Keep doin' what you do sir... annnnd THANK YOU HOWIE!
Your/these comments are making an already wonderful day even more delicious!
Renee, like Meatloaf you took the words right out of my mouth. Couldn't have said if better. He's exactly what a non music playing but music loving person like me has always wanted. Someone who can explain how the effects are achieved. Of all artforms music is arguably the most emotional and it's great to finally find someone passionate, articulate and likeable as well as hugely knowledgeable.
Remember when we put a gold record on the voyager probes so that if any other intelligent lifeforms encountered it, they may find it and learn more about the best of us?
Can we do it with this record?
I pray that these guys get their just do.
Both are highly intelligent.
These are live instruments
ALLL LIVE.
Just Amazing, I sure hope award show do what's right..
Hey be careful...Anderson Beat the CRAP CRAZY out those drums.
God, what a beautiful song. Like you mentioned, they’re really tipping their hats to the greats on this record. From my perspective, Put On A Smile truly reminds me of In the Rain by The Dramatics. The somber tone, the rain effects, the instrumentation and keys are similar, but the key change was reminiscent of Maybe Tomorrow by The Jackson 5! But this one has the most emotional vocal performances on the album from Bruno Mars and Anderson Paak for sure, especially Bruno. God, that note that they cut the music around was absolutely sublime. This kinda reminds me of the emotions Bruno tapped into on his earliest material like Talking to the Moon. Wow, wow, wow to Anderson Paak’s drums and D’Mile on piano/bass. Bootsy sets the tone very nicely too with that intro, it kinda functions as a response to the previous track: Smokin Out The Window. In that song, they talked about the toxicity in their relationship, but now they’re begging for that person back because there still is love there in Put On A Smile. This is Top 3 on the album, easy. Thank you, Howie, for helping to put this little series together. I can’t wait for 777 tomorrow, that’s some Funk we all need after such an emotional and Soulful track. Great and informative video on the keys once again 🔥
OH. How could I forget?? The strings at the beginning reminds me of It’s a Man’s, Man’s, Man’s World by James Brown!! That’s the first thing that jumped out at me when I first heard this song
Yes! Maybe Tomorrow by the J5!
@@colettewalker381 glad you agree 😄😄 I definitely feel those vibes on this track!
Crazy crazy wonderful performances on this track. Transcendent
if you really love silk sonic and their soul sound, i'd recommend this song if you're looking for new music :) ruclips.net/video/jpJ0mS5NPlI/видео.html
The fact that the song wouldn’t even let you pause it…. Lol You had to make yourself pause it because it is THAT GOOD. That says it all about this album and this incredibly talented group.
This song reminds me of Donnie Hathaway's "A Song for You". Not just the chords, the lyrics, the passion, but all the way down to the album cover. Silk Sonic does a fantastic job of encapsulating '70's soul.
Grew up a mile from Oakland Coliseum and in the late 70’s all the R&B, Funk, &Festivals. To many iconic groups to mention. This album is a time machine to that era! Thank you for the breakdown!
The one thing I like about this is that the ride cymbal emulates the sound of rain in the verse to convey a sad/dark emotion and it gets lifted up in the part when Bruno sings the money shot and then we remember that we're sad again at the end
The drum fills on this song were great...about as great as the vocals
if you really love silk sonic and their soul sound, i'd recommend this song if you're looking for new music :) ruclips.net/video/jpJ0mS5NPlI/видео.html
Anderson was killing the fills the entire album
This is one of the best songs I've heard in a very long time....got goosebumps! In fact, EVERY SONG in this magnificent album is a masterpiece. I'm in love with it and Silk Sonic ...Haven't bought an actual record for I don't know how long...but this...Oh my! This one I gotta get it! And...I'm not American, I'm Portuguese. Bless them !!
I want this guy as a friend man
“Fly As Me” and “Put On A Smile” are the standouts on this album for me. Needless to say, this album is incredible.
Woooo! 5 course meal is right.
In terms of a sound, it's a wonderful distinct sound (to me) and still an homage to the RnB roots that I think you hit the nail on the head with on the Smoking Out The Window reaction that we really needed this kind of album this year. This song has me feeling like I need to make some apologies on the phone 😅
Specifically this song, the release from Bruno's Money Notes hit an emotional thread similar but opposite to what I felt from Lorna Shore's To the Hellfire lol. Thanks for bringing this to me because I definitely not would have heard it otherwise! I appreciate the series, David and Howie!
Love the vids :)
Those opening chords make me think "if lovin' you is wrong, I don't wanna be right"
I'll be honest, I thought there is no way we're getting the musical integrity of the 40s to 90s, that 50year span was golden, but these guys had a different idea. And I think this album needs to be out on vinyl.
Amen
You can get it on Vinyl now April 2022 🎧🎧
Such talent, it’s almost obscene…what they’ve done on this album is brilliance at the highest level.
The best part about this video is all the time he pauses and geeks out and knowing that he hasn’t even made it to the best part!!!
Very Very true. This is pure talent. It is magic to the ears. I'm glad you see and acknowledge their talent! You Rock man! I know I sound weird haha
Lyrically this song reminds me of Tracks Of My Tears. You can hear the pain in their voices and the melodies and harmonies are amazing!
This song is a masterclass in writing and composing a song about letting someone go. It's perfectly arranged in a way that you slowly feel them singing her soul out of their body and then singing its ascension into the heavens (or descent into hell, if it's the same girl from Smokin' Out The Window). That key change/modulation in the bridge transforms it from a purely sulk song into a song about true love being the ability to let someone go.
The whole album is a classic….. I listened to it…. Went to sleep….. woke up and listened to it again…. Still a classic…… rarely can you listen to AN ENTIRE ALBUM and like every song on it
One of my favorite songs on the album
The whole collaboration is a classic, a total masterpiece! Very well thought out and relatable.. People, we are witnessing greatness!
Late to the party but a truly great song, what a performance by SS! Drained!
You are my favorite reactionary because I enjoy music the way you do. You can tell it feeds your soul. You react just like me! Keep doing what you do❤
This is one of the best songs I've heard in a decade
Me too
Ohhh yeaaahhh you did it!!!! Thanks Sirrr David so blessed by this haha.. THIS SONG MAKES ME CRY EVERYTIME.. Put on a smile brought tears to my eyes (WHATTA STATEMENT)
Babyface was also part of the song Too good to say goodbye!!!!
BRING ON THE CONCERT DATES!!!!!!!
I will be at the show
My favorite song on this album which is saying a lot coz there are many songs on this album that are amazing but this one in particular is just so emotional it speaks to me
This song makes me want to get back with my ex! Beautiful and emotional song. It hits you in your soul and speaks to your heart.
This is the one...I love the control of and manipulation of the tempo...Anderson playing just behind on helps build the anticipation in the climbs into the chorus...so much going on in this one!
Yes!
So Bruno and Anderson went back to the 70s and some Gamble and Huff writing style and Thom Bell arrangements put a new school twist on some straight up Philly soul and face pushing the vocals and Anderson pocket and Bootsy funk for 60 years great song Great review 😃
This song was phenomenal!!! ❤️❤️
This song touches my soul. It almost made me cry.
I have longed for music like this for soooooooo long. They did that!! I'm in love, I'm in love with love, just listening to it. What an emotional roller coaster. I don't even have any relationship drama going on, but I feel every word and note in this song. Got me twisted.
He gonna pause the song but the best part come out, and it just 🤯
You're enthousiast is infectious... Thanx for the musical insight....
Such a great song... It's a picker upper when down....
The whole album is structured. "Put on a smile" it has an array. Almost solemn. The rain and the smooth melody. Their vocals are haunting. Everything lines up.
For example this how I listen to this song. If your walking up to the mountain top enjoying the moment, and you hit the peak and then you are running down the mountain to flat land with the sun hitting you in the face. Oh my the emotions, the feelings. Silk Sonic is dynamic and determined. It made my hair stand on end and my eyes teared up. Thank you for you reaction. Bravo 👏🏾
Your enthusiasm is infectious, thanks for doing this.
absolutely right - love your enthusiam - it`s infectious !!! love the show and this song -
greetings from Berlin
Your face was the face of pure musical bliss there at the end. I love it
This was a special track in an album full of special tracks. Love your reactions too!
I watched all your reaction videos on the silk sonic album. You sir, have complete understanding of the gravity of this album. Your analysis is absolutely perfect in every aspect of this record. Your musical knowledge and appreciation for this peace of music history should be the text book for every critic out there.
Well done my friend, stay healthy and soulful.....
Bruno is the Bobby Womack of our time Bruno mars has the MJ energy on this track
Did you mean Anderson Paak is the Bobby Womack of our generation or Bruno Mars? That rasp in Paak’s voice is reminiscent of Bobby Womack’s vocal performance in “If You Think You’re Lonely Now”.
Yea i ment Anderson lol 😂 I got to excited Anderson I’d the Bobby Womack of our time
@@titan316thatsmyattitude6 kinda figured lol
YESS this was the one I've been most looking forward to.
I truly love your insight and knowledge. Other React RUclipsrs are fine and all, but I'm not actually learning anything watching these people.
David I can listen to you play the keys all day! So soothing!
I’ve been lurking for a while now but I need to say this, your reactions are sooo enjoyable and just such awesome brain food for a young musician to watch sir.I really do look forward to every video you put out and I feel like I leave every one with a little more than I had the last time, it feels like lessons I should be paying for and for you to just put them out here for free is very much appreciated I hope to continue to watch and learn for a good while longer.
This reminds me of " You are everything" by the Stylistics. Superb
