      Guess that depends on your definition of 'a lot'. The discography of Simply Red, a British soul band, consists of thirteen studio albums, six compilation albums, one extended play, and fifty-three singles. That doesn't even include Mick's solo records.@@timothychung4811

      I'd doubt it! I heard Labbi Sifrie live in what was essentially a waiting area. His van had broken down leaving him with just his accoutic guitar, he came out and sang for us. I think his voice was marginally better than Mick but I'd be happy to listen to either of them all day.

    Originally from the 1985 album, "Picture Book", this was one of the greatest ballads of the 80's with Mick Hucknall's incredible powerful vocals. His emotional delivery was inspired by being deserted by his Mom at 3 years old and the upheaval was the inspiration.
    Keyboardist and trumpeter Tim Kellett took inspiration from Miles Davis's "Kind of Blue" album for the incredible trumpet solo.
    It was first recorded by Mick in 1982 with his Punk Band, The Frantic Elevators, but later he added the I'll Keep Holding On, chorus after the band split and Hucknall formed Simply Red.
    Live this is even more heart penetrating with his vocals absolutely brilliant and the instrumentation superb. It does not get any better. Such a musical treat. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Neal. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada. 🇨🇦

    I subscribed to his channel last year- was excited to hear he is still making music and has taken on the internet, even though many of his generation aren't generally into creating video content regularly enough to keep a channel going and growing. The vivacious, fiery, red headed soul singer is as potent as ever with his one of a kind voice!❤

    What's great about a reaction video, and you Harry, especially to a good tune(such as this), is that you're providing a service that allows fans of the tune in question to be re-experienced in a way that's all but been forgotten. Our emotions bubble back up to the surface to reflect a time when we initially listened to the tune ourselves. From a JukeBox at RoundTable pizza or on the radio in our parents car on the way to a soccer match. You react, and we, your audience, rejoice in the nostalgia of how we felt listening at that moment. It's like blowing air onto fading hot fire coals. It lights up and gets red hot with life. On behalf of all your reactionees, thank you. You're making my human pain and suffering a little bit better. A truly unique phenomenon in this day and age. Gracias, and hello from Tijuana, MX. Asta luego, amigo!
