    I LOVE Manhattan Transfer. They have such tight harmonies. A must hear from them is Route 66. Tuxedo Junction is another great number. Thanks for your reaction. I truly enjoyed watching!

      I forgot, this was also the entrance song for the wrestler "Handsome Jimmy Valiant. That's when I fell in love with Boy from New York city. I watched wrestling all the time just to hear that song, I still remember the lyrics by heart

    This is the third Manhattan Transfer song you have done and you have loved them all. Maybe if you do a few more, you will remember them. Try Boy from New York City, Chanson D'Amour, Trickle Tridkle,, Twilight Zone... there are so many good ones.

  • @lamusiclover2264
    @lamusiclover2264 3 года назад +3

    One of my favorite groups of all time. They are mainly a jazz group but had a period of doing pop music as well. "Birdland" is one of their best "Rays Rockhouse" and an a Capella great, " A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square"

    I have loved this song since I was a little child. It always makes me cry. Praise the Lord. The Giver and The Gift. Believe it or not all the singers in this group are white. They sing with the soul of the beautiful black gospel singers. THIS is their biggest hit.

    Man, you folks are requesting so many of my faves. The double album you pulled this from is another where the cd's are about worn out. Saw them in concert, another notch on my bucket list. Awesome acapella jazz! There have been many songs that I couldn't wait to see you react to, this one was def one.

    You would also really like a song by jazz group The Yellowjackets, specifically from their SHADES album titled "Revelation" with the noted Perri Sisters doing vocals. You can find live versions and a lot of covers, but, please, try the album version first. You will not be disappointed - at all.

    The boy from New York City was a very popular one. You should check it out. My mom loved this group & she introduced me to them. So when I hear songs of theirs it takes me back. I lost my mom when she was 46 years old. I was 22 when she past. She loved music. All kinds. So I got my love for music through her. My best friend. Miss you Mom. But I loved your reaction to this song. This is probably my favorite song of theirs. You should react to Ronnie Milsap’s song called Jesus is your ticket to heaven. It’s really really good. An upbeat tune.

    I don’t like much white gospel music but this is an exception and one of my favorites, along with The Happy Goodmans’ ‘Looking For A City’ (which must be seen in concert footage so you don’t miss the comedy), but for Manhattan Transfer overall I think their masterpiece is ‘Chanson D’amour’.
