I'm sorry for your loss. I cannot sing but when my daughter was born, I didn't know any lulibys, so this was our song when I would feed her in the middle of the night.
Nuno is still absolutely beautiful & I agree, phenomenal guitarist!! If you’ve never seen their Queen medley at the Freddie Mercury tribute, it’s well worth the watch! Brian does a video on Nuno’s solo for Get The Funk Out that’s worth watching, too!
When my daughter was born, I didn't know any lullabies. So, in the middle of the night, when I got up to change and feed her, I used to sing this to her. This brings tears to my eyes.
I was a kid when this song came out and about 3 months ago, at 38 years old I got married for the first time and this song was our first dance. Everybody went wild when it started playing. Old song, but no regrets! I think my wife is glad I chose this.
I first heard this song when my first born was like 4 days old and it was the most beautiful song I had heard as a new momma. It has been his song since.
Right at the end when he sings "what would you say if I took those words away". He sings "what would you say" in a soft head voice, then belts "If I" and then switches back to the same soft head voice for "took those words away". It's so seamless and made to look so easy you almost don't realise how insanely amazing that is.
Jamel, I agree with you about this song. I have been singing all my life, and I learned pretty young to pick out harmonies. This is one of those songs that I really love to harmonize with, taking that second harmony line and just joining along. Beautiful tune.
Yes children out there, when we went to concerts we used lighters because there weren't any CELL PHONES! Enjoy the experience of seeing someone live instead of trying to record it on your iPhone. You will never duplicate everything you miss at a concert when you watch it back on your laptop.
I remember the lighters very well. The lighters always came out near or at the end of the concert and was a signal by the audience that they wanted to hear more from the performers. The goddamn phones have destroyed the value of concerts and should be banned from use there.
Maybe the people with phones actually want videos of their experiences so they can look back on it in their old age in case they forget. Just a thought.
@@jacksbox317 they don't need to because the concerts were recorded and afterwards sold on video/dvd.... What you feel at that instant moment in a concert can't be recorded.
@Sono2 That's what they said about 70's music. Being an 80's kid , I think that decade was the worst so far. Everyone has different opinions. I think it's the pop crossovers that most refer to when they say a certain era is "the worst"
Just love that harmony. I remember when it came out.People would hear it on easy listening stations and want to hear other music by them not knowing they were a hard rock band. I bought the CD and was pleasantly surprised myself.
Age 16, Made out with a girl at the beach, listening to this song on her fathers k-car car radio in the back ground. A fire crackling a few feet away. Never gotten past a weak second base with her but it was one of best memories of that summer. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of that night. The smell of the camp fire and the sounds of the waves, gently lapping the shore. It was an amazing night. I’m really glad that you reviewed this song.
@@Module79L It does, I saw the interview when Sir May talks about it. Nuno is definitely a beast. I saw him with Steve Vai and Zakk Wylde, a few times during the show I swear he even amazed Steve. It was so great
I don't know if it's because I've listened to the albums so much but the first 3 albums are all great. The slower songs on 3 Sides to Every Story I don't really care for but everything else was great.
"What would you do if I took those words from you? Then you couldn't make things new just by saying I love you." Actions speak louder than words. SHOW, don't tell.
He said it makes you want to love the right way . That is exactly right , love the right way ! I have never heard someone put it so perfectly . Thank You For That !
This is one of my favorite love songs. It's, literally, just a guitar and two beautifully harmonized voices. It doesn't get more pure than this ... nothing to hide behind.
@@Module79L Yeah, i was in for a shock when I listened to the rest of their album. People responded to this acoustic song. The rest was very heavy metal.
This song came out the summer before my wife and I started dating. We (She 19 and me 17) heard this song together on one of our first dates. She liked it so since I could play guitar I took time and I learned how to play it for her. Now a few years later (she 48 and me 46) we are still together!
This is one of the songs I was going to recommend to you. I heard a guy from high school sing it and I was blown away. He was that good that there was a crowd around him. This song is awsome. It's was one of the best songs back in the day and become a great hit for 10 or 15 years. It will never get old and it will be a classic years from now.
Ha! I remember this from back in high school. And all the girls jealous of Nuno's hair. I can remember trying (and failing) to play the guitar and sing this to my girl back in the day... Must have worked at least a little. We're still married to this day. As far as Extreme goes, I think they were a band that didn't really fit in with any genre. I think too many people think of them as being light rock or just cheesy hair metal. They were sometimes cheesy, but they were much more, musically, than most hair metal bands. The guitar and bass work is amazing. I think Pat Badger is a criminally underrated bass player. And the harmonies were so good. And they did the horn parts just as well as any other rock band that integrated horns, as Aerosmith is also known to do. The drummer did nothing flashy, letting the guitar and bass player take the limelight. Finally, their albums, at least from Pornografitti, were concept albums. The album More Than Words comes from is all about the dangers and pitfalls of living in a decadent society. The final song, Hole Hearted, isn't a sequel to More Than Words, it's more of a revelation of the emptiness left by a life of decadence. Listen to the album, read the book of Ecclesiastes, then listen to the album again. You'll see what I mean. Taken as a whole, that album is incredibly deep and meaningful. And I think most people miss the message.
I've never been that great at telling my wife that I love her, other than using those three words. When I listen to this song, I'm reminded of everything I've ever wanted to say to her. I love you Megan, with more than words.
Fun fact, the drummer left the band in the mid 90s, and became their manager, and still is. The album they released upon his departure featured Mike Mangini on drums. He now plays with Dream Theater.
This is a local group from Boston, When this song came out everyone was singing it. I remember my 4 year old nephew singing it at the kitchen table. But they are actually a rock band!
Three notes. 1. The lead singer of Extreme, Gary Cherone, was the lead singer of Van Halen for one album. 2. The guitarist, Nuno Bettencourt, has toured with Rihanna. 3. Additional Extreme songs to react to: "Hole Hearted" from this same album, "Decadence Dance", "Mutha (Don't Want to Go to School Today)", and has already been recommended "Get the Funk Out".
Their album III Sides to Every Story was way ahead of its time. Them and Jellyfish were extraordinary but their time just didn't coincide with the times.
I remember being in high school madly in love and this song came out ... feels smashed and so many great memories now 30 years later this song is still just as amazing and beautiful
Criminally underrated band - If not for this song they may have not found the fame they did, but it also overshadowed so much other great music that they did. Nuno is a legend
One of the 1st songs I learned on guitar and played in front of a group of people.. The tingly feeling I got .. The sing along and vibe is the reason I'm a dedicated musician!
Jamel ....Heart at Kennedy center honors playing “stairway to heaven “ for the honoree Led Zeppelin , Robert Plant was choking up , Obama was there digging it , a full blown DC choir for back up , standing ovation , a chilling performance...a must see
Back in the early 90's a young black man came on the scene in Country music. He had a great voice and we loved him. He did not remain in Nashville long but returned to his former profession. His name is Dr. Cleve Francis and his first love, repairing the hearts of people. He was a cardiovascular and heart surgeon. Love Light is a good place to start with his music.
Dude. You’re the best. I love this song. Steven Tyler from Aerosmith and the guitarist from this video covered it and man it’s amazing. If you want to react to it I would appreciate it. You have the best reactions. Peace
I love your singing. I wanted to say this song is on repeat on my kindle. I've been having anxiety attacks on top of anxiety attack and just listening to this song is so calming.

This was my husband's favorite songs. He died 22 years ago. I feel like this is his Valentines message to me today. Thank you.
I'm sorry for your loss Heather
@@HevyDevy101 Thank you.

@@c.s.7266 ❤
I'm sorry for your loss. I cannot sing but when my daughter was born, I didn't know any lulibys, so this was our song when I would feed her in the middle of the night.
The guitar player is so beautiful that if wings opened behind him I wouldn't be surprised. I love this song and it never gets old.
Nuno Bettencourt
Might be one of the best guitar players in the world too.
Nuno is still absolutely beautiful & I agree, phenomenal guitarist!!
If you’ve never seen their Queen medley at the Freddie Mercury tribute, it’s well worth the watch!
Brian does a video on Nuno’s solo for Get The Funk Out that’s worth watching, too!
Totally agree!!
Yasss!❤
Two beautiful men singing a beautiful song.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. ❤
Mr. Big - To Be With You!
Shane Sturgill my fav!
I really like their version of Wild World
Great one!!!
Amazing song, amazing guitarist Paul Gilbert, amazing bass player Billy Sheehan. Yeah, a must listen!

Not only can Nuno Bettencourt play a mean guitar and sing, he's pretty to look at too!
Carol Landrum omg he was gorgeous!!
When my daughter was born, I didn't know any lullabies. So, in the middle of the night, when I got up to change and feed her, I used to sing this to her. This brings tears to my eyes.
That song is a throwback to 50s duets like The Everly Brothers.
I felt that Everly Bros vibe. LOVE this song!!!
My first reaction is harmonies and voices sweet as Phil and Don Everly!
When the drummer & bass player sit out - and it's still a great tone.!
It's a song that just hits your soul and calms the storm inside.
I was a kid when this song came out and about 3 months ago, at 38 years old I got married for the first time and this song was our first dance. Everybody went wild when it started playing. Old song, but no regrets! I think my wife is glad I chose this.
Should check out Hole Hearted by Extreme as well. Or really their whole catalogue lol. They’re awesome!
Takes me back to real feelings with an edge. Love it!
Yoooo whole hearted was the last of that cowboy gunslinger rock phase. Bon jovi cinderella and extreme were the best at those for real.
@@ReginaldForman Wish I could give that statement more thumbs up!
I first heard this song when my first born was like 4 days old and it was the most beautiful song I had heard as a new momma. It has been his song since.

Nuno is a madman on guitar. Definitely worth further looking into.
"Cupid's Dead" is an amazing track. Perfect Guitar, Bass and Drums teamwork.
Just a beautiful love song. Pure.
One of the smoothest acoustic guitar licks ever!!!
The transition from hard to soft singing is truly special...hooked me immediately...and still does!!!
I was a teenager when this song was released. I didn't know about love but I knew this was a meaningful song.❤
Two guys and a guitar. You probably won't find anything this good in today's music without auto tune and over processing. A great song. Thank you sir!
Get the Funk out !! Extreme really kick it in gear , the solo AMAZING !!

What you feel at that instant moment in a concert can't be recorded.
Yep, ah the old days lol
Also your girl on your shoulders so she could see. Usually the floor seats folks.
Lol
One of my favorite songs ever!!! I cannot just listen one time, it goes on repeat.
When music was about music..... Ahhh the good ol' times.
ah youth!
@Sono2 That's what they said about 70's music. Being an 80's kid , I think that decade was the worst so far. Everyone has different opinions. I think it's the pop crossovers that most refer to when they say a certain era is "the worst"

Whitesnake “Still of the Night”
OH HELL YEAH!
DEFINITELY A MUST HEAR!
A poor man's Led Zeppelin. No thanks.
Oodles Loodles come on bro.. lol there is no way to even be comparing LedZep to Whitesnake. I just suggested the song.
@@jessearmstead2237 right, I'm a huge Zep fan but Still of the Night is great song.
Jesse Armstead and is this love by white snake
💜 *SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG, WITH A SIMPLE MESSAGE, THAT ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS* 💜
Age 16, Made out with a girl at the beach, listening to this song on her fathers k-car car radio in the back ground. A fire crackling a few feet away. Never gotten past a weak second base with her but it was one of best memories of that summer. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of that night. The smell of the camp fire and the sounds of the waves, gently lapping the shore. It was an amazing night. I’m really glad that you reviewed this song.
I was 21 when this came out and I’m 51 now and I still LOVE LOVE LOVE IT
Do "Get The Funk Out". It might be one of the best guitar solos ever
Nuno Bettancourt is an amazing guitarist.
Nuno can say that his solo has Sir Brian May's seal of approval. Not many guitarists can say the same.
@@Module79L It does, I saw the interview when Sir May talks about it. Nuno is definitely a beast. I saw him with Steve Vai and Zakk Wylde, a few times during the show I swear he even amazed Steve. It was so great
That whole album was filled with sick guitar riffs
@giglio33012 He's still with Extreme too. New album due this Spring...
Their sequel to this is a song called Wholehearted, or for a kick in the pants from them, 'Get the funk out'
I don't know if it's because I've listened to the albums so much but the first 3 albums are all great. The slower songs on 3 Sides to Every Story I don't really care for but everything else was great.
That song is amazing and I only discovered it last year!
I really like "hole hearted"
You really should do a reaction to Get the Funk Out! Awesome song!!!
I really like this song too. And Nuno in bike pants makes me happy ☺
"I could listen to that song..., every day for the rest of my life" it really is...thaaat good. Great comment.
"What would you do if I took those words from you?
Then you couldn't make things new just by saying I love you." Actions speak louder than words. SHOW, don't tell.
He said it makes you want to love the right way . That is exactly right , love the right way ! I have never heard someone put it so perfectly . Thank You For That !
This is a beautiful song! I love how Jack Black sings it, he tries to be funny, but it's actually really good.
This song tells me... look at me, hold my hand, walk with me, hug me, and if you want... Love Me.
This is one of my favorite love songs. It's, literally, just a guitar and two beautifully harmonized voices. It doesn't get more pure than this ... nothing to hide behind.
It's the beautiful harmony that really made it heartfelt and great! Reminds me of the Everly Brothers.
Unfortunately, this song was such a huge success that it almost completely overshadowed what the band was really about and the rest of their work.
Perhaps, but it's possible that had this song not gotten so big, their other work wouldn't have made it to the ears of the number of people it has.
@@g3synth205 - I'm pretty sure many of the people who made this song famous are the kind of people who wouldn't listen to the rest of Extreme's work.
@@Module79L Yeah, i was in for a shock when I listened to the rest of their album. People responded to this acoustic song. The rest was very heavy metal.
I like Whole Hearted even more.
Unfortunately, I think it basically ruined their credibility as hard rock/metal musicians.
Oh, the harmonies! Beautiful.
I remember when this song first came out. This will always be one of my favorite songs by them.
Jack Black and Jimmy Fallon do a cover on the Tonight Show that's really good.
😂 one of my favorite things ever.
I like that version better..
mattypisme love their version too
Agreed. It's fun but so, so good....
I was just going to comment that I like their version better.
Your bathroom seems to have gotten smaller - and a bit more see-though.
On the plus side, it's got more seats than before ;)

Pretty easy on the eyes too.

Do did Gary's wife just dayin

@Debbie Gum Extreme is highly underrated.
Going to add "Kid Ego" (their first single) and "Play With Me" (known from Bill+Ted's Adventure 'mall scene song')
Yeah, but that was unquestionably their worst album by a country mile, so.... They simply just didn't mesh well...
Their album III Sides to Every Story was way ahead of its time. Them and Jellyfish were extraordinary but their time just didn't coincide with the times.
Me when I hear this song: 😳🥺😭😭😭😭🤧 The transiions, for some reason makes the tears start. And I'm jealous of their hair.
This is one of those songs you never change the station on. One of my top 10 faves.
I remember being in high school madly in love and this song came out ... feels smashed and so many great memories now 30 years later this song is still just as amazing and beautiful
If you want your soul to be moved, listen to Van Morrison “Into the Mystic “
God yes.
Another one of my favorites
Any Van Morrison, a sister
WOULD appreciate!!*
Wao centuries have passed by when I last heard this beauty.
Criminally underrated band - If not for this song they may have not found the fame they did, but it also overshadowed so much other great music that they did. Nuno is a legend

Love this song, beautiful. Happy Valentine's Day❤️

Now do Extreme - Rest in Peace. :D
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone ❣️.... This was so popular in the early 90s. Hope you check out more Extreme.
My favorite band! They'll likely always be best-known for "More Than Words," but they have so much range. They're a great live band, too!
I agree. This song is amazing. I am Native and I love this. Love these amazing men

You should do more power ballads like this Jamel_AKA_Jamal! I suggest "Is This Love" by Whitesnake. Love your channel btw!
I don’t think he’s done I remember you by Skid Row
Munk Bandit Yes! That is an excellent suggestion! And maybe....some songs by Barry White? 😁🥰
@@bryancase2643 I been askin for Skid Row for a while man. We need it!
Whitesnake "Here I Go Again"!!
Yaaaas power ballads! Grew up on those with my momma

I have never been more mesmerized by a song and this video is flawless.
The 90s golden years. 😍
