Yes!! Amber definitely needs to hear holding back the years!! Simply Red sings the hell out of that song!😃
OH BOY!! Absolutely!!!
Do another reaction to Holding Back The Years with both of you!!!
Yes.
Let Amber here holding back the years please 😂
I couldn't agree more IMO MICK's best vocal performance.
Great reaction as always guys
This is one of those RARE covers that does justice to the original.
This is actually a cover of a wonderful 1972 song by Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes. You should check it out when you get a chance. Not that I'm knocking this version, not at all. Mick Hucknall's vocals are amazing, as they are on most Simply Red tracks. For your next one, you can do "Money's Too Tight (To Mention), "The Right Thing", or "It's Only Love". Thanks for reacting!
I never heard this version. The original is a must!!!
Definitely. Teddy's voice is beautiful. 👍✌️🇨🇦
@@marybaillie8907 Hi Mary. Teddy Pendergrass does lead vocals on it, not Harold.
Was just fixen to recommend this. I love this version but it doesn't come close to the original 🕊️

Simply Red are a British soul and pop band formed in Manchester in 1985. The lead vocalist of the band is singer and songwriter Mick Hucknall, who, by the time the band initially disbanded in 2010, was the only original member left. Since the release of their debut studio album Picture Book (1985), they have had ten songs reach top 10 in the UK Singles Chart, including "Holding Back the Years" and "If You Don't Know Me by Now", both of which reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. They have had five number one albums in the UK, with their 1991 album, Stars, being one of the best-selling albums in UK chart history. At the 1992 and 1993 Brit Awards, they received the award for Best British Group. They received three Grammy Award nominations: for Best New Artist in 1987, and "Holding Back the Years" and "If You Don't Know Me by Now" for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The band re-formed in 2015. Simply Red have sold over 50 million albums. Peace out.
Excellent short history of them Steve !👍 I think they should listen to Stars, Fairground, The Air That I Breathe & Home would give a nice addition to the two that Jay has done and Amber needs to do Holding Back The Years as it’s a killer version !
I recommend to check out the original version by Harold Melvin and the blue notes, lead vocals by Teddy Pendergrass, a 70s classic
Yes, yes and yes!
Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes!!!!!!! The Philadelphia sound!!!!
It was Teddy in his prime!
Yes anything from Mr Teddy Pendergrass! RIP.
Yes, definitely check out the original version... the lush Philly Soul sound and the thunderous vocal by Teddy Pendergrass... please do!
Simply Red live in concert are incredible, Mick Hucknall's voice live is stunning.
Agree 100%. His concert at the Sydney Opera House (Australia) is outstanding!
It really really is!!!!
I agree, Linzi! He's the real deal live. He's got the pipes, without any mechanical help to hit and hold the notes while putting plenty of color into his vocals. So many vocalists that became hits in the 80's turn out to be disappointments live. They resort to auto tune a lot, or they end up sounded winded and unable to hold a not long, and definitely incapable of hitting those high notes on the recording.
This is a remake. The original was by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes and led by the late great Teddy Pendergrass. Teddy was one of the best, most soulful voices to ever lay down a track. Periodt!
Yes!!
This was my late husband's and I favorite song. So, we called our song. Thanks for helping me remember my true love.
Sorry for your loss💖❤
That's beautiful Bobbie... so sorry.
❤
dude this guy is a different level of genius I can’t believe it I’m blown away
Mick Hucknall's vocals are absolutely
stunning. He has packed this passion filled voice into 50 million in record sales. Outstanding. Great reaction.Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
I'm so glad Jay and Amber have discovered Mick's amazing vocals and Simply Red's amazing songs. I'm mainly a rock fan but I've loved Simply Red since I first heard them. I love 'Fairground' myself. This is what music is about - pure quality.
Simply Red - “sunrise” , “fairground”, “something got me started”, “Stars”
Such a classic 80's vibe. You can't help but love this one!
It's actually from the early 70's. Original done by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes.
Yes Robert G. Give Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes a listen. They the original artists who sang this song way back in 1972.
Absolutely stunning.
This song is perfection and was always one of my favorites when growing up. Red has some soul!!!
He definitely had a straight up soul sound! It didn’t take much effort to make the masses love his sound! I was one them! Could listen repeatedly! Loved it! Ginger soul!
I love this song Mick Hucknall has such a beautiful voice. It's one of my favorite songs.
This was originally recorded by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes.
Simply Red is Simply Great. One of the most soulful voices of the 80s and 90s.
This is a real good cover by simply red. You guys should hear the original by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes featuring the late great Teddy Pendergrass on lead vocals. It's more soulful in my opinion.
Yessss
Right, it's definitely more soulful.
Teddy sings it best
@@joemc1960 agree
I guess I am odd man out, as usual. I prefer this version.
Guys. Take my word for it. Watch his live concerts here. No shameful lip syncing like today's stars do. When Mick performs live, he puts on a show. A true PROFESSIONAL musician. Look up Simply Red- Stars Symphonica in Rosso. Your soul will be touched like nothing else.
Obsessed with Simply Red. Thanks for this one.
I'm from the 80's and im just discovering this band, Mick's voice... gorgeous. Great reaction. ❤
This was a huge hit in America in 1989. Their next album, Stars from 1991, was huge in every country BUT America. It's strange it barely got played in America, but was album of the year everywhere else, well into 1992 and had 4 big hits
It wasn't a huge hit on the charts...but fantastic
Another case for the "Grunge killed my career" file that Todd in the Shadows talks about sometimes, I guess.
I think the music is a bit basic. But DAMN, Mick's voice…
I've only heard that one song Stars, but if that's any indication the album might have just been too different from what people were used to from them.
Wasn’t that when grunge really hit big in the US? Kinda changed the vibe stateside
@@misterdoe check out " for your Babies". Shoulda been huge
Mick is STILL one of the best male vocalists of all time!! Unreal how he hasn’t completely blown out his vocal chords and still performing in his 60’s. If you Google him it’s funny to see results like “how amazing is Mick Hucknall’s voice” 😂 There are a few live concerts of Simply Red on here I looove watching. 👌🏼👌🏼
Ever heard Josh Groban sing? Now THAT'S a voice. :)
@@tommtommkin lol 😂
@@tommtommkin yes have you never said he can’t sing calm your tittes. Lol 😂
@@tommtommkin nobody is using foul language how about if you don’t want people to respond don’t t post . 🤷🏽♀️ you don’t tell people what to do . 🤦🏽♀️
great to hear his voice is still strong
I could listen to Stars on repeat. ✨ Such a feel good song for me.
Mick Hucknall is an incredibly soulful vocalist! He has a many wonderful tracks with Simply Red, and much great solo stuff as well. This song is a fantastic cover of the original 70's soul classic by Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes.
If you are doing Simply Red, you have to do "Stars". It's the title track to their best album, and is a good example of their pop sound and Hucknall's incredible vocals.
Something got me started, A new flame, You make me feel brand new...
Mick Hucknall is the lead singer of Simply Red, from my hometown of Manchester in the UK. Moneys to tight to mention and Say you love me are other songs you should check out. Keep up the great work , love and best wishes to you and your family.
I could turn the lights down and listen to Simply Red all night. ❤
Glad you liked it Jay & Amber ❤
A beautiful cover of Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes classic. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I absolutely love Simply Red. Mick has such a fantastic voice and if you haven’t heard Holding Back the Y Years you really need to give it a listen. ❤
Look...this is definitely a Rabbit Hole that you want to go down....so many great songs. One of my favorites is Sunrise with a sample of Hall and Oats in it. Also , the songs "You've Go it!", "Something got me started", "For your Babies", "Stars", so many great songs.
Scrolled down until I found someone calling out "Something Got Me Started"!
Absolutely love the uniqueness of his vocals, a beautiful song. Thanx so much, Be well, Peace
Saw him in concert july past brilliant as ever
Simply Red! I love Simply Red. Stars, Sunrise and Fairground are three of my many favourite songs by them but you really cannot go wrong with any song with them. Mick Hucknell’s voice is incredible.
Three of my favorites as well!
Just sat in the car listening to BBC Radio 2 (in the UK) and the DJ played a clip of you two talking about Simply Red!!! How cool 😎
Next stop, "Holding back the years". Such a great time. And an absolute belter for Karaoke nights.
❤️beautiful 😍 one of my favorites 😍
Simply Red are an amazing band that you need to check out more of. They are from Manchester, England and lead singer Mick Hucknall is a big Manchester United fan, the Red Devils, and of course Mick having read hair the band had to be called Simply Red. If you get the chance you would see if you can find a video of them performing with the Buena Vista Social Club band, I remember seeing them on TV years ago and it blew my mind. As for the next Simply Red songs I'd suggest Stars or For Your Babies (Something Your Me Started I think you'd also love thinking about it as well, as well as It's Only Love). So glad you checked this out though, can't wait for more!!!
The original done by Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes in 1972… Simply Red does a fantastic rendition… a favorite of mine ❤
Simply Red- "Do the right thing" live is amazing! Very unique performer and exquisite voice.
Found the video
ruclips.net/video/-s9KCLLaPHI/видео.html
Can you believe this soulful & bluesy voice comes out of this man’s voice!?!? I fell in love with it the very first time I ever heard him sing! So unique in so many ways!! Love from one redhead to another!! ❤❤
I've listened to this one and holding back to years.. probably 2,000 times in the past 2 years
One of my favorite songs.
Omygosh!!! Such a beautiful, beautiful, song! But I do prefer Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes…no one does it like them. ❤
Jay & Amber, you should check out SR's version of "Money's Too Tight to Mention" It's a great tune! You'll really enjoy it!
I haven't heard Simply Red sing in over 20 years. That English dude could sing.
I remember how soft and simple this song was. Alot of meaning in these words of soul...
Holding back the years live is awesome
Simply Red sold stronger in the UK than the US but Mick Hucknall's "blue-eyed soul" is worth checking out even if they weren't big hits stateside. For a song with stronger R & B sound, try Simply Red "Never Never Love." Or hit up another "blues eyed soul" song by Michael McDonald "I Keep Forgettin."
For your babies is another simply red must.
Absolutely love this song
React to "Money's Too Tight to Mention ".Means so much to me.
"Talk it over" by Grayson Hugh. 80s blue-eyed soul.
With an immense back catalogue, it's so weird people directed you to one of their very few cover versions! It's a great cover, don't get me wrong. You need to hear the original and then dig into Simply Red for real! Check out For Your Babies, Fairground, A New Flame, Money's Too Tight To Mention, Stars, Say You Love Me, Sunrise, We're In This Together...and sooo many more!
My absolute favourite band of all time!!
Next Simply Red song you should check out is, Money’s Too Tight To Mention! It’s a bop.
This is one of those songs that just always seems to be playing in my head
He also covers the Stylistics song...You make me feel brand new... check that one out, you won't be disappointed. Excellent song choice tonight, it's been a while since I heard it, this was something I played on repeat when it came out.
''official video'' version
This song is so beautiful and heartfelt 😍
This version is very good. However the early 70's original by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes is one of the most beautiful recordings ever.
It is. But I prefer this version.
I love his voice ❣️❣️❣️
I was just watching a live video of him. This man's vocals live is absolutely FIRE! If you get a chance check it out, you won't be disappointed.
Seriously fire!! Even in his later years! It’s unreal!!
One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands from back in the day. So glad you found this one.
"Holding back the years", guys - please!! 🙂
..and "Say you love me"...
Please give us more Simply Red! Stars, Sunrise, For Your Babies... so many great ones to choose from! Thank you for your reaction!!
All the Americans saying "This is a remake of Harry Melvin and the Bluenotes". All the British people saying "About bloody time you started listening to Simply Red!"😂
By the way, about bloody time you started listening to Simply Red!😉
Great reaction guys. I really hope you get around to hearing more songs of Simply Red. Some of my favs are "Stars", The Right Thing" and "A New Flame", and I'm sure plenty of people have suggested others.
So much feeling in that song, it hits the heart !
Simply Red are incredible. You need to hear Money's Too Tight (To Mention), it's just as good as this one!
"Holding Back The Years" Beautiful - Also, the Group Breathe "Hands to heaven" Dear Lord. Richard Marx "Endless Summer Nights"
"For your Babies" is an underrated classic
Don't think it's underrated. Not in the UK anyway❤️
@@bethcushway458 it's bizarre how Stars was the biggest album of 92, everywhere EXCEPT the US. It barely got played here. The title track did OK, but " something got me started", " your mirror" and " for your Babies" got hardly any airplay
@@dawnpatrol700 that's what I meant by it not being underrated. The rest of the world sees its beauty.
That's really sad though and totally bizarre. Stars is such a beautiful album.
@@bethcushway458 yes,it was a beautiful song (Stars)and For Your Babies...Mick just has an awesome voice.
Another group that pretty much was totally overlooked here in the US was Smokie,recently discovered Chris and the band 6-8 years ago.. only song I remembered playing here was Stumblin In with Suzi Quartro...wish I would've researched them way back when I heard that song while growing up,since finding out about Smokie,Chris leaving and being replaced by Alan Barton and after a short 9 years or so Alan passing away in Cologne, Germany after their tour bus had an accident and Mike Craft taken over until recently. ..I fell in love,not hardly one song by Smokie or Chris Norman that I didn't fall in love with,even enjoyed Mike's voice...just didn't seem like "Smokie" so much anymore.
"Stars" is another one of their big hits.
Love this song. This is one of 80s Blue Eyed Soul groups
This girl has an ear!! Yeah, that backing vocal, imo, sounds fantastic!! That's my draw to this song too.
I still stop dead in my tracks when I hear Holding Back the Years. I can't recall if you reacted to it yet. Like so many have mentioned, this is Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes cover that is also a recording to react to.
Love Simply Red. Other than the ones you already have listened to, I love Stars, For Your Babies, and Sunrise.
Teddy Pendergrass sings the original with Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes.
Mick Hucknall has an amazing voice. So soulful
"Money's Too Tight To Mention" and "Sunrise" are two others you must check out!
Holding Back The Years - Simply Red
Both of you. That is all.
This song was so popular in my childhood!! Love it!
Love Mick Hucknall! Marvelous voice! Simply Red is a fantastic band with so many hits. My favorite? Stars.
I could listen to Stars on repeat
Always love this song, so beautifully sung too. Love his song called Money To Tight To Mention, another great song of theirs too. I also like these too,
It's only Love,
Your mirror,
So not over you,
The right thing,
Never Never Love,
Something's gotta give. All awesome songs. 😎👌
Money's Too Tight to Mention is also a cover by them. It is a 1982 R&B song by The Valentine Brothers. The original is far more funk than Simply Reds.
Thanks for mentioning "Money to Tight to Metion"I sang it with my sister the last time I saw her. Means so much to me.
@@lreed1040 Ah right, cool, haven't heard the original.
@@terrimilka7805 You're welcome, hope they react to it. 😊
I went to see Simply Red in concert in the spring. It was quite an experience, one of the best voices in modern music performing in front of me.
This one's a cover of an old song by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes.
Try some of their original songs: Money's Too Tight To Mention, Stars, Something Got Me Started, A New Flame, and the great Sunrise, sampling Hall & Oates. The concert was just hit after hit. Glad to see Mick back on the channel.
They have such a unique sound.
This song is "our song" - my husband's and mine. We danced our first dance and fell in love to it🥰🥰
Loved this reaction… and as I’m from Manchester England I have to say ‘ about bloody time’ Simply Red have always had a piece of my heart, my grandma was there biggest fan. Luckily for me, after 30 years I finally got to see Mick sing live in concert earlier this year and he’s still pitch perfect. Maybe react to something abit more up tempo like A new flame or something got me started or money’s too tight to mention, you’ll get a better idea of Micks vocal range, he’ll always be one of the best male vocalist ❤
Hi,My Aunts ,cousins and Grandparents are from Manchester, also spent a few simmers there when I was younger,Miss it do much❤
Hola! gracias por pasar muy buena musica!
Fantastic heartfelt reaction guys!! Money's to tight to mention really showcases Mick's voice and is absolutely brilliant. Take care and warmest wishes from the UK.
Holding back the years Simply Red
Wow, Jay especially looked like he was seriously digging the melody there. It's a fantastic song.
Money's Too TightMoney's Too Tight - My favourite Simply Red song.
Wow it's like you guys dove into my playlist today. Great choice for Simply Red. Mick Hucknall is considered "blue eyed soul", like Daryl Hall, so definitely r&b. Check out "it's only love" , "money's too tight to mention", and "sunrise" from them.
Never Never Love by Simply Red. Mesmerizing voice…always.
Beautiful song 🎶 Beautiful singer 🎵
Last thursday I saw them in concert in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. His voice is still amazing. This was their last song of the show. You should also react to Stars, Sunrise, I't's only love, You made me feel brand new.
Didn’t think anyone could do this song justice after Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes. But Simply Red does an excellent cover of this. Love their version. 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦
Agreed!!! One hundred and ten percent! Excellent job. Grew up on Teddy P. and he was great! But this brother here is on a level too!!!
@@keithknox5829 disagree, it's a good version but Mick's voice just hasn't got the same emotion as Teddy, and I like simply red a lot, their own stuff is excellent
@@keithwarrington2430 I wasn't saying I thought Simply Red's version was better than Harold Melvin and The Bluenotes version. But I do like what they did with it. Just like I like what Rod Stewart did with This old heart of mine by the Isley Brothers or Some guys have all the luck (who I forget who did the original versions, Persuaders, Intruders, one of those R&B groups from the late 60s to early 70s) but I've always been a big fan of Rocket Rod's stuff. I am totally colorblind when it comes to greatness in all things positive, inspiring and uplifting!
I saw simply red live for the 3rd time last Monday. It's always worth it, it's incredible!
Anything that is a live performance by this band would be nice
They are unreal live! It’s amazing
Reminds me of my schools days this was number 1 at the time and bobby browns every little step was 2 . Such a classic song sung so beautifully. Many decades later I was at work and me and a work mate started randomly singing and harmonising this great song.
Money’s Too Tight to Mention is the absolute jam by this band. 👍🏽
Preach
What was that dirty joke about simply red?
Something to do with a rabbit, I think.
He was holding back the ears, but the bunny was too tight to mention, lol. Something like that. I think I last heard that joke when I was a kid in the 80s.🤦♂️😂
@@TheRetroManRandySavage 😆
Hi guys ! Thanks for playing this great r&b classic originally sung by teddy pendergrass who sang lead for harold Melvin and the bluenotes.Simply red is one of my moms favorite bands..Love you guys thank you and have a great day!
I absolutely love Simply Red, and they did a great job with this song. It's originally by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes.
The lead singer of Simply Red is Mick Hucknall has a wonderfully soulful voice. His red hair was the inspiration for the name of the group.
More from them....
"Your Eyes" (pay attention to the video as it tells a good story)
"More"
"Enough"
"Maybe, Someday"
"Infedelity"
"Sunrise" (samples a great Hall & Oates song)
"Something Got Me Started"
"Stars"
"It's Only Love"
"Say You Love Me"
"You've Got It" (another video to pay attention to)
"Jericho"
LMmcxcallL.57. I always thought that it was because they were ardent Man. United supporters!
Don’t sleep on Simply Red ❤ Stars should be your next one.
This is one of the few covers that I prefer over the original.
This a cover song of a 70’s song. When I heard this song on FM radio in 1989, I thought this was an original song. It blew up on the adult contemporary station, the alternative station, the r & b station, and the top 40 stations. A massive hit record for Simply Red!
It freaked me out when I realized this was an old song from the 70’s! I heard this growing up in the seventies.
I'm guessing a ton of people have told you this is a cover, and you should do the original now, too. By Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes. (I think that's the original. LOTS of people have covered this song. It's a classic)
