Amber, generations of women have reacted just like that to Barry's voice. Priceless. Back on the Block is an *amazing* album full of LEGENDARY performers like Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, and Dizzy Gillespie, alongside modern singers, rappers, and instrumentalists. BTW, Quincy is not a new artist on your channel. He was the band leader in the We Are the World video, just like he is here
From Quincy Jones Back On The Block album! Barry White, El Debarge, James Ingram and Al B Sure. This was on heavy rotation on the late night slow jam stations. Kids were conceived to this song FO' SHO! Excellent choice!!!
Featuring the legendary voices of Al.B.Sure, James Ingram, El DeBarge, and of course Barry White! Y’all might have to get a babysitter after this one! 😄😄🔥🔥🔥
This was "baby maker" song #1 (I was about to say back in the day, but...). Quincy Jones was a master of mood. You could spend the rest of the year just going through his catalog.
Jay & Amber, Quincy Jones- legendary record producer, musician, songwriter, composer, arranger, conductor, and film and television producer. His instrument is the trumpet.
His instrument USED TO BE his trumpet. It's his piano. He had to stop the trumpet when he had two aneurysms, one burst he survived and they detected a second one and removed it. But he had to promise to never play the trumpet again.
This song is a masterpiece. And I'll add another request for Al B. Sure. (My third, at least.) His "In Effect Mode" album was huge in '88. You want some falsetto.... Listen to "Naturally Mine"... "Off On Your Own"... "Ooh This Love Is So"... and "Nite and Day"... Man, from New Wave to R&B, the 80s had some gooood music. 🙂
Couldn't hit the LIKE button quick enough! I know that you both had your eyes closed during a good portion of the song, but the video is showing you who is singing lead for easy identification. Great choice! Awesome baby making music!
And yes Amber, that's exactly what we did lol this was on everyone's mix tape/cd! Hell, I'd have it on in the background while talking to a woman on the phone 😉😂
OMG! That was so good! Kids, now you have to listen to "Black Men United" singing "You Will Know" ... all the best male soul singers and an inspirational song.
Quincy Jones did most of Frank Sinatras arrangements...Frank met a young Quincy and saw Brilliance..Of course Quincy dust the arrangement for " We Are The World " in calibration with Michael Jackson. Anything Quincy touches is Gold...
Another thing Q did when recording Sinatra with an orchestra was to have him on stage singing with the orchestra next to him. I want you to 'feel' the power of the music. And when Q is conducting a large orchestra next to you. & You're not in a booth with headphones. You don't get to say, stop, let me redo that line every 15 minutes. You do it right! Sinatra said he liked Q because he really pushes you, he wouldn't allow you to get lazy. successful
Not because of him. Read liner notes on his albums and he did very little. Most of the songs were written and arranged by someone else. He didn’t play any instruments. He’s definitely no baby face. Teddy Riley. Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis. Now those are real producers. Quincy contributes almost nothing to the music he takes credit for
I am shocked you haven't heard this before. I think it came out in the 90s. Check out the live version on here. Great album too and you can still get it. It is baby making music ha ha
You're not the first. Regrettably, this song never made it out of the R&B box. Even now, with music streaming and satellite providers, you will only find the song in rotation on R&B channels.
Yeah, he’s not really new to them, if you think about all he’s done, particularly with Michael Jackson. I recommend You Put a Move on My Heart featuring Tamia.
Finally! The young students of music learn about the brilliance of Quincy Jones ' producing and band- leading! 🥳🥳👍 (Think, "We Are The World") he's legendary in bringing diverse voices together and arranging them like an orchestra. 😍 This is one of the best examples of that and he has too many to mention. "Stuff Like That" is a major jam of his that will have you dancing in your seats. Love you two 💞
"he's legendary in bringing diverse voices together and arranging them like an orchestra" Absolutely spot on! Amazing producer and arranger! He knew how to bring the best out of every artist he worked with. He's respected across all genres of music!
@@PapaEli-pz8ff yes he did!👍 Globally he was recognized as a genius. I wish they could react to the documentary on Quincy's life! (Pretty sure it's available on RUclips). He's a national treasure. 😍
Quincy Jones is the most prolific writer/arranger in history. He has worked with most top tier musicians from Ray Charles and continuously to Michael Jackson. He has written movie scores, as well as television scores like Sandford and Son. He produced The Fresh Prince Of BelAir. His credits are more than I can recount here, but he is already in the record books with anything music. This is history.
Ahh. Finally more Debarge! Second best Debarge and Ingram combo since Switch! Bobby Debarge and Philip Ingram's group! El said "if there was something you wanted to say to your lady, put on a Switch song and let Bobby tell her for you!"
He conducted the Count Basie Orchestra with Frank Sinatra for the "Sinatra at the Sands" album. Though Jones was credited as the arranger, most of the arrangements on that album were Nelson Riddle arrangements that Jones adapted to Basie's band (without a string section). Nonetheless, that album was a masterpiece. My favorite tune from that album was "Don't Worry 'bout Me"--hopefully they will react to that tune someday.
One of my absolute favorite slow jams! You have 4 amazing singers and Quincy on production, what more can you ask for. The earth’s population definitely increased after this song was dropped.
This is the kind of song that is played on the R&B radio program "Quiet Storm", which was named after a 1970s Smokey Robinson song. Here's a few other songs you might want to check out: Atlantic Starr ~ Let's Get Closer Marvin Gaye ~ After The Dance Minnie Riperton ~ Inside My Love Jermaine Jackson ~ Castles Of Sand O'Bryan ~ You And I Mother's Finest ~ Love Changes Chanté Moore & Keith Washington ~ I Love You Sade ~ Love Is Stronger Than Pride Teena Marie ~ Portuguese Love Black Ivory ~ Don't Turn Around Labelle ~ Isn't It A Shame Tower Of Power ~ You're Still A Young Man Lenny Williams ~ Cause I Love You The Dramatics ~ I Can't Get Over You Gap Band ~ Yearning For Your Love Average White Band ~ A Love Of Your Own Cameo ~ Sparkle Kool & The Gang ~ Too Hot Prince ~ Adore
I mentioned in another post that Quincy Jones writes, produces, arranges, and conducts. I should have also mentioned that he works with top talent. Every musician in the world wants to work with Quincy Jones.
Barry with his bedroom voice, just nailed everything about this song,,, I never get tired of playing this song,,, kudos to Quincy Jones & rip to Barry white & James Ingram. Love & miss you all.
So glad you reacted to this! Loved your reaction! Next you have to react to 'U Will Know' from Black Men United. A group of popular singers from that time like Tevin Campbell, Gerald Levert, Tony, Toni Tone, Keith Sweat, Boyz II Men etc.
Ayeeee I never clicked so fast!!!! This is the song right here!!! Go ahead and let the song take you to heights unknown! Please check out Stuff Like Please check out the entire CD Body Heat by Quincy Jones it's has old 70s smooth grooves that I know y'all will love! 🎼🎶🎵🎶 And please check out Night And Day by Al B Sure.
From Back on the Block! There are some really good songs on this album, including Back on the Block!! I've been singing that song since it came out. Also I'll Be Good To You, which was written and sung first by the fabulous Brothers Johnson, who I've been waiting for you to react to. Their Get The Funk Out Ma Face is such a good funky song!!! Also Strawberry Letter 23, Stomp, and of course, I'll Be Good To You.
This was an absolute cut when this came out!! But also you should check out "HEAVEN'S GIRL," from the album "Q's JOOK JOINT," which Quincy Jones used the vocal talents of Ronald Isley, from the Isley Brothers, Aaron Hall from Guy, R. Kelly from Public Announcement, and Charlie Wilson from The Gap Band, in which Quincy Jones made the music and arranged the vocal talents from each artist!! I enjoyed it so much because I am from Chicago and we consider this as a "NUMBER ONE STEPPERS CUT!! CHECK IT OUT PLEASE!
Al B. Sure!: Listen to "Nite and Day" El Debarge: Listen to "Rhythm of The Night" James Ingram: Listen to "One Hundred Ways" Barry White: Listen to "Your're The First, The Last, My Everything" or "Goodnight My Love"
Jay and Amber: Next Quincy Jones song: “Betcha Wouldn’t Hurt Me” featuring Patti Austin; it is smooth fire 🔥. SO wonderful. He has an amazing producer, arranger, musician. Did you know he produced Michael Jackson’s “Off the Wall”, “Thriller” and “Bad” Albums? Also, he was an arranger for Frank Sinatra? And that’s just part of his accomplishments!!! 🏆
For a moment there I thought we were going to have to hold you guys down isn't it just perfect when a song can make your entire being filled so yes I'm a midwife and believe me I delivered plenty of babies made to this music!
LOVE your reaction! This is "baby-making" music, or "practising making babies" music - ha ha ha! This song was FIRE at da clubs in the 90s...glad it made ya'll smile.
You need to check out Quincy album "The Dude". It ws my introduction to James Ingram and Patti Austin. Patti's "Razzamatazz", "Betcha' Wouldn't Hurt Me" and "Something Special" are great. James's "Just Once" is a classic. Quincy Joones is the GOAT. After all he produced Michael Jackson "Off the Wall", "Thriller" and "Bad" albums.
Ha ha love your reaction to Barry White! I'll show my age here I actually bought the album when it first came out on LP - just for this track. However the album is really good all different singers, you will know most of them. Great singers on this track I do think James Ingram was very underrated his voice was superb, sadly he has died a while back
This was a new one for me too guys, so thank you! I like how the video you played shows each singer as they do their solo. James Ingram could sing me the phone book.🔥 One of my favorite 80’s songs was Al B. Sure’s “I can tell you how I feel about you night and day.” It’s a vibe. Thanks for sharing
Thank you..thank you..thank you. One of my favorite songs of all-time!!. So many of the #1 R&B Artists..in the Industry. YES!!. The beautiful voice of Barry White.. in the beginning!!.
🤣💓 You two crack me up! Perfect reaction. Thanks for making me smile/laugh yet again. I may be mistaken, but I think the person singing is the person on the album cover they are showing.
Quincy is music royalty of American Music... producer, arranger, band leader, composer, etc... from Frank Sinatra to Michael Jackson and so many inbetween.
As an avid 80's & 90's R&B fan - this was the holy grail for me. When this came out I bought a compilation CD with several mixes of it total time like 30 minutes. Lets just say it got played A LOT 😁
Hey ..Absolutely fantastic channel and I love watching you experience all these songs. You're both so genuine and your perspectives on the music always add a new dimension. It's really so much fun to watch people hear music you know so well for the first time. Can I make a request here? I think it would be great to see you guys hear Tom Waits for the first time. He has a very deep, diverse catalogue over several decades but one request I would make is "Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis"....I know it sounds crazy but its a beautiful song and I think you guys would love it.
Found this song a few weeks ago and can't believe I forgot about it all these years. Led me to your video and loved your reactions. I've loved Barry White for over 50 years and my family and friends scratch their heads wondering how a 71 year old white guy goes crazy whenever one of his songs comes on the radio. I thought of a song from the album "Soul Zodiac" by Nat Adderley Sextet and Rick Holmes titled "Libra". The album has a song for for each sign of the zodiac with Holmes telling you about what the sign means backed by the jazz of Adderley. Holmes received a grammy nomination for "Best Spoken Word Recording" and I thought of "Libra" while listening to "Secret Garden". Love your site and intend to be a regular listener.
The song literally hypnotizes you ! You catch yourself drifting, into another dimension! A sweet dimension that flows across you with all types of sensual and physical Love throughout your body . A Really cool effect! ... 🤗
Quincy Jones wrote a lot of songs for various singers, James Ingram's "Just Once" & "One hundred ways". He help produce 3 Michael Jackson's albums, "Off the wall", "Thriller" & "Bad". You should hear "Ai No Corrida". The style in Micheal Jackson's songs.
I was one of those kids who was way too grown for their age. I still remember the words to this song and I haven’t heard it in decades. I can still hear my parents yelling “time to go brush your teeth and go to bed” when this came on. My little grown ass was like “ok this song is definitely one to pay attention to”. 😅😊
Al B Sure, is a great artist, check out 'Night and Day' by him. The album that this is off is called 'Back On The Block' and was a come back concept album by Quincy Jones, the main deep is voice is of course Barry White. For a track by Quincy Jones check out 'Stuff Like That' if you do check this out please do the single version as the vocal is far better.
Quincy jones writes, produces, and arranges. Quincy was one of the songwriters on this song, and was the arranger and producer. You also reacted to "We Are the World", which Quincy produced and conducted. This is from Quincy's "Back on the Block" album, a fantastic album. I have the title track running through my head right now. You should listen to it.
If you listen to the title track, make sure you listen to the 7:40 version. There is an Introduction by Q's son that adds nuance to the single and album. The title track features Ice-T (yes, Det. Tutuola), Melle Mel, Big Daddy Kane, Kool Moe Dee, Tevin Campbell, and the Andre Crouch choir (Gospel Legends).
You HAVE to check out Al B Sure’s ‘Night & Day’ - it’s amazing! But this is a fantastic tune as well, very sensual. And who could mistake that deep voice of Barry White 😁
You should check out Jones' albums "Walking in Space"--especially "Killer Joe"; and his album "Smackwater Jack"--a favorite from that album is the Marvin Gaye tune, "What's Goin' On."
Quincy Jones is an American Treasure / Icon better known as Q and / or The Dude. He is a musical legend who has worked with so many greats from Count Basie, Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Diana Ross and of course Michael Jackson. Quincy Jones produced The Brothers Johnson "I'll Be Good For You", "Get The Out of My Face", "Strawberry Letter 23", "Stomp", James Ingram "Yah Mo B there", "Just Once" multiple Michael Jackson albums and We are the World / USA for Africa. Excellent reaction!
I am so late to the party...but I am crying from laughing at Amber's reaction to hearing Barry White's voice at the beginning. This is a definite go-to track whenever I am "entertaining" LOL. Love the channel!
Great content. Quincy Jones, and George Duke are the best when it comes to bringing the best singer's together to sing one of there songs they created.
(After readings some of the other comments): Quincy also produced Donna Summer's 1982 album "Donna Summer", which features the precursor song to "We Are The World" called "State Of Independence". It was an all star choir backing Donna, including (but not limited to) Christopher Cross, James ingram, Michael jackson, Quincy jones, Quincy's wife Peggy Lipton, Kenny loggins, Michael McDonald, Lionel Richie, Brenda Russell, Dionne Warwick, Stevie Wonder and Richard Page of the 80's group Mr. Mister. There's also an all-female trio version of this song featuring Patti LaBelle, Teena Marie and Pat Peterson.
WHITE LION check out this band. They’re an 80s hair band and underrated. Their 2 most popular songs are ‘Wait’, which is heavier, and ‘When the Children Cry’ which is softer. Would love if y’all reacted to these!!
you guys played the short version of the song , listen to the extended version, it's incredible
I was gunna say...this is missing some KEY vocals...but def THE MOST SENSUAL song ever!
Came here to say same….PLEASE go back and listen to the full version…even if you don’t do a reaction to it….much better!
Always thought it was a crime the way they chopped this song up
I only listen to the extended version, interesting to see the original version.
The extended version is a bedroom banger.
Amber, generations of women have reacted just like that to Barry's voice. Priceless.
Back on the Block is an *amazing* album full of LEGENDARY performers like Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, and Dizzy Gillespie, alongside modern singers, rappers, and instrumentalists. BTW, Quincy is not a new artist on your channel. He was the band leader in the We Are the World video, just like he is here
You got that right ! because I’m one of those women that melt’s when he sings
Back on the Block is also a movie -- where Quincy traces the roots of hip hop far back into Black American musical history. It's a must-see.
George Duke said record companies give Jones big budgets and that's how he can have so many legendary performers on one record.
From Quincy Jones Back On The Block album!
Barry White, El Debarge, James Ingram and Al B Sure. This was on heavy rotation on the late night slow jam stations. Kids were conceived to this song FO' SHO!
Excellent choice!!!
Exactly! No "Quiet Storm" late night radio show was complete without this outstanding song!!!!
Facts!
The Voice love Barry White is making Amber melt
Should have done Sax in the Garden so that Amber could here the sax in that.
Love this!
Featuring the legendary voices of Al.B.Sure, James Ingram, El DeBarge, and of course Barry White! Y’all might have to get a babysitter after this one! 😄😄🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂
I was about to say something just like that 😂😂
Quiet storm music! Your either conceiving kids or putting them to bed.
UHHKAAY !!!
This was "baby maker" song #1 (I was about to say back in the day, but...). Quincy Jones was a master of mood. You could spend the rest of the year just going through his catalog.
Jay & Amber, Quincy Jones- legendary record producer, musician, songwriter, composer, arranger, conductor, and film and television producer. His instrument is the trumpet.
A lot of babies 👶 were made off this song alone
His instrument USED TO BE his trumpet. It's his piano. He had to stop the trumpet when he had two aneurysms, one burst he survived and they detected a second one and removed it. But he had to promise to never play the trumpet again.
Oh no! Watch out, y'all 🤭... BABY #4!! 😂
Perfect song. I recommend James Ingram/Patty Austin duet Baby come to me. You will not be disappointed
OH YES!!!! Absolutely! Jay & Amber definitely have to do that song!
Or “how do you keep the music playing”
❤️ that song!! I agree there'll be NO disappointment when they react to that!! 👍😃❣️😃👍
YES!
Actually Jay & Amber need to dig into both Patti Austin and James Ingram all together. Both just wonderful artists with wonderful music.
This song is a masterpiece. And I'll add another request for Al B. Sure. (My third, at least.) His "In Effect Mode" album was huge in '88. You want some falsetto.... Listen to "Naturally Mine"... "Off On Your Own"... "Ooh This Love Is So"... and "Nite and Day"... Man, from New Wave to R&B, the 80s had some gooood music. 🙂
Also Killing me softly and Touch you etc... one of my favorites from the 80s
💯❣️
You guys are hilarious. Tomorrow by Tevin Cambell (who was 14 at the time) is also a great track from the same album. Love your enthusiasm.
Couldn't hit the LIKE button quick enough! I know that you both had your eyes closed during a good portion of the song, but the video is showing you who is singing lead for easy identification. Great choice! Awesome baby making music!
You guys gotta play the full version, please check that out! This edited/short version does complete injustice to this sensual masterpiece!
And yes Amber, that's exactly what we did lol this was on everyone's mix tape/cd! Hell, I'd have it on in the background while talking to a woman on the phone 😉😂
I was a radio DJ back when this was out. This was my signoff song.
OMG! That was so good! Kids, now you have to listen to "Black Men United" singing "You Will Know" ... all the best male soul singers and an inspirational song.
Quincy Jones did most of Frank Sinatras arrangements...Frank met a young Quincy and saw Brilliance..Of course Quincy dust the arrangement for " We Are The World " in calibration with Michael Jackson.

Not because of him. Read liner notes on his albums and he did very little. Most of the songs were written and arranged by someone else. He didn’t play any instruments. He’s definitely no baby face. Teddy Riley. Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis. Now those are real producers. Quincy contributes almost nothing to the music he takes credit for
Wow! Never heard this. I know who all the artists are and know their separate voices but have never heard them all together. Just WOW!! 👍
😱 this is soul staple. Icons making something iconic
Seriously??
I am shocked you haven't heard this before. I think it came out in the 90s. Check out the live version on here. Great album too and you can still get it. It is baby making music ha ha
You're not the first. Regrettably, this song never made it out of the R&B box. Even now, with music streaming and satellite providers, you will only find the song in rotation on R&B channels.
@@panamas6865 and on you tube. Theres many versions of it on here.
And I see they show the picture of each artist on their verses. That's dope!
He produced some of the greatest soul music ever recorded. He was also married to Margaret Ann "Peggy" Lipton of "The 60s-70s "MOD SQUAD".
Rashida Jones is their daughter.
Loved Peggy Lipton
Yeah, he’s not really new to them, if you think about all he’s done, particularly with Michael Jackson. I recommend You Put a Move on My Heart featuring Tamia.
My wife and I danced to this song at our wedding reception. One of the best of all time imo
Finally!

He also worked with Frank Sinatra, Count Basie among others
@@PapaEli-pz8ff yes he did!👍 Globally he was recognized as a genius. I wish they could react to the documentary on Quincy's life! (Pretty sure it's available on RUclips). He's a national treasure. 😍
Not sure anyone has nearly as many memorable soundtracks either, TV and Movies.
Quincy Jones is the most prolific writer/arranger in history. He has worked with most top tier musicians from Ray Charles and continuously to Michael Jackson. He has written movie scores, as well as television scores like Sandford and Son. He produced The Fresh Prince Of BelAir. His credits are more than I can recount here, but he is already in the record books with anything music. This is history.
Wow. How can it get any better. 4 of the best most soulful voices ever together on one song. Great song choice again guys!
Ahh. Finally more Debarge!
Second best Debarge and Ingram combo since Switch! Bobby Debarge and Philip Ingram's group!
El said "if there was something you wanted to say to your lady, put on a Switch song and let Bobby tell her for you!"
Fun Fact: Quincy Jones arranged and conducted Sinatra's 1964 album "It Might As Well Be Swing."
He conducted the Count Basie Orchestra with Frank Sinatra for the "Sinatra at the Sands" album. Though Jones was credited as the arranger, most of the arrangements on that album were Nelson Riddle arrangements that Jones adapted to Basie's band (without a string section). Nonetheless, that album was a masterpiece. My favorite tune from that album was "Don't Worry 'bout Me"--hopefully they will react to that tune someday.
Yes! You are the first that I have seen react to this masterpiece. Each artist with a rabbit hole you could get lost in. Love it!
One of my absolute favorite slow jams! You have 4 amazing singers and Quincy on production, what more can you ask for. The earth’s population definitely increased after this song was dropped.
UHHKAAY !!!
Amber, your face when you heard Barry’s voice ,you had me rolling on the floor

Yeah about he and Diddy shared baby mother Kim Porter
I mentioned in another post that Quincy Jones writes, produces, arranges, and conducts. I should have also mentioned that he works with top talent. Every musician in the world wants to work with Quincy Jones.
This is the jam!
In order by verse: Al B. Sure, James Ingram, El DeBarge, then Barry White. A 1990 slow jam that is just too smooth.
All I have to say is Quincy is AWESOME. 💜
Barry with his bedroom voice, just nailed everything about this song,,, I never get tired of playing this song,,, kudos to Quincy Jones & rip to Barry white & James Ingram. Love & miss you all.
Quincy of course is one of the Kings of the music business. I'm pretty sure anyone that knows anything about music knows Quincy.
So glad you reacted to this! Loved your reaction! Next you have to react to 'U Will Know' from Black Men United. A group of popular singers from that time like Tevin Campbell, Gerald Levert, Tony, Toni Tone, Keith Sweat, Boyz II Men etc.

Absolutely!
Performing his Award winning "Theme from Shaft" at the ceremony YOU HAVE NEVER EVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS.
From Back on the Block! There are some really good songs on this album, including Back on the Block!! I've been singing that song since it came out. Also I'll Be Good To You, which was written and sung first by the fabulous Brothers Johnson, who I've been waiting for you to react to. Their Get The Funk Out Ma Face is such a good funky song!!! Also Strawberry Letter 23, Stomp, and of course, I'll Be Good To You.
Yes! Finally!!! Sooooo much love for this song!
Since you enjoyed this so much, try Maxwell's "Ascension". You will love this one too!!!
That was a fabulous album that I think most slept on ❤❤❤
Every Artist featured.. are Masters Of Sensuality.
Al B. Sure became a superstar after his single Nite and Day back in 1988.. Might wanna check that out
This Song is Fire 🔥
By far THE MOST ROMANTIC AND SEDUCTIVE SONG EVER!
This was an absolute cut when this came out!! But also you should check out "HEAVEN'S GIRL," from the album "Q's JOOK JOINT," which Quincy Jones used the vocal talents of Ronald Isley, from the Isley Brothers, Aaron Hall from Guy, R. Kelly from Public Announcement, and Charlie Wilson from The Gap Band, in which Quincy Jones made the music and arranged the vocal talents from each artist!! I enjoyed it so much because I am from Chicago and we consider this as a "NUMBER ONE STEPPERS CUT!! CHECK IT OUT PLEASE!
Wow..first time hearing this.. Love it!
Back On The Block was a 🔥album through and through - A true masterpiece!
Al B. Sure!: Listen to "Nite and Day"
El Debarge: Listen to "Rhythm of The Night"
James Ingram: Listen to "One Hundred Ways"
Barry White: Listen to "Your're The First, The Last, My Everything" or "Goodnight My Love"
Yes yes. I love that song always have. That voice. ❤️
Your reaction is priceless luv it
Jay and Amber: Next Quincy Jones song: “Betcha Wouldn’t Hurt Me” featuring Patti Austin; it is smooth fire 🔥. SO wonderful. He has an amazing producer, arranger, musician. Did you know he produced Michael Jackson’s “Off the Wall”, “Thriller” and “Bad” Albums? Also, he was an arranger for Frank Sinatra? And that’s just part of his accomplishments!!! 🏆
You guys are too cute 🥰. Keep listening to these "behind closed doors" jams and we will all be seeing baby #4 next year 😂.
For a moment there I thought we were going to have to hold you guys down isn't it just perfect when a song can make your entire being filled so yes I'm a midwife and believe me I delivered plenty of babies made to this music!
Your first reaction was unforgettable lol!! Beautiful though. Yo, this was what we were slow dancing to.
LOVE your reaction! This is "baby-making" music, or "practising making babies" music - ha ha ha! This song was FIRE at da clubs in the 90s...glad it made ya'll smile.
You need to check out Quincy album "The Dude". It ws my introduction to James Ingram and Patti Austin. Patti's "Razzamatazz", "Betcha' Wouldn't Hurt Me" and "Something Special" are great. James's "Just Once" is a classic. Quincy Joones is the GOAT. After all he produced Michael Jackson "Off the Wall", "Thriller" and "Bad" albums.
Also, check out "One Hundred Ways" by James Ingram on "The Dude" album.
Ha ha love your reaction to Barry White! I'll show my age here I actually bought the album when it first came out on LP - just for this track. However the album is really good all different singers, you will know most of them. Great singers on this track I do think James Ingram was very underrated his voice was superb, sadly he has died a while back
This was a new one for me too guys, so thank you! I like how the video you played shows each singer as they do their solo. James Ingram could sing me the phone book.🔥 One of my favorite 80’s songs was Al B. Sure’s “I can tell you how I feel about you night and day.” It’s a vibe. Thanks for sharing
Thank you..thank you..thank you.
One of my favorite songs of all-time!!.
So many of the #1 R&B Artists..in the Industry.
YES!!.
The beautiful voice of Barry White.. in the beginning!!.
🤣💓 You two crack me up! Perfect reaction. Thanks for making me smile/laugh yet again. I may be mistaken, but I think the person singing is the person on the album cover they are showing.
Quincy is music royalty of American Music... producer, arranger, band leader, composer, etc... from Frank Sinatra to Michael Jackson and so many inbetween.
As an avid 80's & 90's R&B fan - this was the holy grail for me. When this came out I bought a compilation CD with several mixes of it total time like 30 minutes. Lets just say it got played A LOT 😁
Priceless reaction, It can be dangerous, lol...Just an awesome sound and vibe...Thanx so much for reaction, Blessings
Hey ..Absolutely fantastic channel and I love watching you experience all these songs. You're both so genuine and your perspectives on the music always add a new dimension. It's really so much fun to watch people hear music you know so well for the first time. Can I make a request here? I think it would be great to see you guys hear Tom Waits for the first time. He has a very deep, diverse catalogue over several decades but one request I would make is "Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis"....I know it sounds crazy but its a beautiful song and I think you guys would love it.
Found this song a few weeks ago and can't believe I forgot about it all these years. Led me to your video and loved your reactions. I've loved Barry White for over 50 years and my family and friends scratch their heads wondering how a 71 year old white guy goes crazy whenever one of his songs comes on the radio. I thought of a song from the album "Soul Zodiac" by Nat Adderley Sextet and Rick Holmes titled "Libra". The album has a song for for each sign of the zodiac with Holmes telling you about what the sign means backed by the jazz of Adderley. Holmes received a grammy nomination for "Best Spoken Word Recording" and I thought of "Libra" while listening to "Secret Garden". Love your site and intend to be a regular listener.
The song literally hypnotizes you ! You catch yourself drifting, into another dimension! A sweet dimension that flows across you with all types of sensual and physical Love throughout your body . A Really cool effect! ... 🤗
Quincy Jones wrote a lot of songs for various singers, James Ingram's "Just Once" & "One hundred ways".
He help produce 3 Michael Jackson's albums, "Off the wall", "Thriller" & "Bad".
You should hear "Ai No Corrida".
The style in Micheal Jackson's songs.
I was one of those kids who was way too grown for their age. I still remember the words to this song and I haven’t heard it in decades. I can still hear my parents yelling “time to go brush your teeth and go to bed” when this came on. My little grown ass was like “ok this song is definitely one to pay attention to”. 😅😊
There is a great live performance of this you can watch from the 1991 Soul Train Awards. The ladies in the crowd go wild!
This song was played very commonly on the former smooth-jazz stations for a good number of years!!!
Jordan 🤪🤣🔥👏🏾 in the beginning! When Barry started singing, I thought Amber was gonna float up out of the chair! 🤣🤣🤣
Al B Sure, is a great artist, check out 'Night and Day' by him. The album that this is off is called 'Back On The Block' and was a come back concept album by Quincy Jones, the main deep is voice is of course Barry White. For a track by Quincy Jones check out 'Stuff Like That' if you do check this out please do the single version as the vocal is far better.
Ok J& A y’all are giggling 🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️ when this first came out we all fell in love with these handsome gorgeous men!!!❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎙🎙🎙
In the video, they display the photo of each artist to let you know who is singing at that particular moment.
There is a very real possibility that one or both of you owe your existence to that song!!
Quincy jones writes, produces, and arranges.
Quincy was one of the songwriters on this song, and was the arranger and producer. You also reacted to "We Are the World", which Quincy produced and conducted.
This is from Quincy's "Back on the Block" album, a fantastic album. I have the title track running through my head right now. You should listen to it.
If you listen to the title track, make sure you listen to the 7:40 version. There is an Introduction by Q's son that adds nuance to the single and album. The title track features Ice-T (yes, Det. Tutuola), Melle Mel, Big Daddy Kane, Kool Moe Dee, Tevin Campbell, and the Andre Crouch choir (Gospel Legends).
It is one of my favorite collaborations of all time.
Each vocalists name appears visually in the video named before their section begins.
You HAVE to check out Al B Sure’s ‘Night & Day’ - it’s amazing! But this is a fantastic tune as well, very sensual. And who could mistake that deep voice of Barry White 😁
You should check out Jones' albums "Walking in Space"--especially "Killer Joe"; and his album "Smackwater Jack"--a favorite from that album is the Marvin Gaye tune, "What's Goin' On."
Quincy Jones is an American Treasure / Icon better known as Q and / or The Dude. He is a musical legend who has worked with so many greats from Count Basie, Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Diana Ross and of course Michael Jackson.
Quincy Jones produced The Brothers Johnson "I'll Be Good For You", "Get The Out of My Face", "Strawberry Letter 23", "Stomp", James Ingram "Yah Mo B there", "Just Once" multiple Michael Jackson albums and We are the World / USA for Africa.
Excellent reaction!
a who's who of timeless r&b male voices under the magic fingers of quincy jones
"SMOOTH" soul great reaction. ; )
Omg! I requested this so long ago! So glad you’re here!
Such a sexy song!!
I am so late to the party...but I am crying from laughing at Amber's reaction to hearing Barry White's voice at the beginning. This is a definite go-to track whenever I am "entertaining" LOL. Love the channel!
Great content. Quincy Jones, and George Duke are the best when it comes to bringing the best singer's together to sing one of there songs they created.
Love to see the two of you cheesing!
(After readings some of the other comments): Quincy also produced Donna Summer's 1982 album "Donna Summer", which features the precursor song to "We Are The World" called "State Of Independence". It was an all star choir backing Donna, including (but not limited to) Christopher Cross, James ingram, Michael jackson, Quincy jones, Quincy's wife Peggy Lipton, Kenny loggins, Michael McDonald, Lionel Richie, Brenda Russell, Dionne Warwick, Stevie Wonder and Richard Page of the 80's group Mr. Mister.
There's also an all-female trio version of this song featuring Patti LaBelle, Teena Marie and Pat Peterson.
It was fun seeing your stunned reaction. But you held it together and didn't completely Melt! :) Fun Reaction Guys! Have a Great Week :)
This song was huge in 1989 this was like that R&B collaboration of all the legends and the girls lost there minds when it came out.
WHITE LION
check out this band. They’re an 80s hair band and underrated.
Their 2 most popular songs are ‘Wait’, which is heavier, and ‘When the Children Cry’ which is softer.
Would love if y’all reacted to these!!
The Manhattans, Cadillacs, Drifters, Temptations & Four Tops - Battle of the Groups (@Apollo 1985) WOW
