Funny back then we all listened to the radio in our car , at home, and at work . We went out to concerts and cookouts and party’s . No god dam cell phones or computers. We talked and listened to one another. The absolute best time of this now 60 year olds life . I live in today’s world with only those memories to get me thru .
I grew up in a little town on the New South Wales south coast. This was close to my favourite song. I applied for and was accepted into the Air Force as a pilot in 1987. I swore that if I passed the pilot course, which had a traditional pass rate of just 50%, I would come back to my home town, sit down at South Beach with a beer, in my RAAF uniform, with my newly awarded pilot wings, and look out over the beautiful ocean while listening to this song. I did pass. I did sit down at South Beach with a beer, looking out over the ocean listening to Cool Change, whilst contemplating what I'd achieved. I felt bloody good.
They say Don Hensley of the Eagles is the "golden throat" of rock, but this guy, Glenn Shorrock has a golden voice that is a contender for sure! Love, love, LOVE this song!
I feel your words, this is my song with my dad. Its always been in my eyes, 40 odd years on we go. Dad whistles this song perfect and beautifully. I told hime 20 years ago that this song connected me to him during a drive from the airport while i was home for a visit. Fro. Then on he always whisled what musically played.
I think that there's a reason for this. The people using the Little River Band name now are imposters. A Guy bought the rights to the music and is touring playing LRB's music with his own band.
LRB are with out a doubt the best Australian band to date and I am a 74 year old veteran who's seen a hell of a lot of bands.Thanks LRB for the fabulous memories ❤️.
These guys are every bit as good with their harmony as Don Henley and the Eagles, maybe even better. And I am a very big fan of the Eagles. This song was on the radio when I got my driver's license in November. Right before Christmas break my parents let me miss most of the morning of school so I could drive my brother to Galveston and bring his car back. This song played 3 or r times on that trip.
I think LRB is one of the most underrated bands of the 70’s-80’s. The way they harmonized wasn’t something you hear much of these days. I kinda think of LRB as one of the first “boy bands”. Cute as hell, can sing, harmonize, and all the ladies loved them! Keep on a rockin’ Glenn.
you're on point. Beeb, Wayne and Graeham compliment Glenn so well and they sing it well both in studio and live...John Farnham had a different style and some liked it but I still prefer Glenn's laid back style as though he's only talking to you and not really trying to make an effort out of it...love LRB
Never has been a better band than LRB, ever. I was honored to attend their concert in Fairbanks Alaska 35 years ago and they were as they always are, #1. So many beautiful songs but my favorite is 'Light of Day'. all their song demonstrate their profession and love for music but Light of Day is Magical from the 'First Under the Wire' Album. Thanks LRB, you guys are the greatest and thank for sticking around all these years! GOD SPEED AND BLESSINGS!
Growing up in the late 60's and 1970's was when the music scene exploded with the best musical talent. I bought that album and wore out 10 nettles on my Technics turntable. I still get goosebumps everytime I play this beautiful song from one of my favorite bands growing up.
Just lost my Mom to Covid. I've listened to this song like 50-times in the last 3- weeks. She was 70 and very healthy...BUT, I really think she was ready for a "Cool Change." The stress of life gave her daily migraines that haunted her. The pain is almost unbearable....I miss her so much!!!
Part of music’s beauty is creating a vision & feeling emotion. LRB did this like few other bands could. Songs that make you want to live and love life.
Just watched a music show on tv and a aussie interviewing the eagles mentioned that both bands had an incredible similarity in the harmony in their voices, and it brought me here to listen to the song, 55 yrs old, brings back memories,
Little River Band had so many great songs - many of them hits! Sadly, they were underrated and pushed to the side for other "hit' making artists. Their harmonys are spot on. I really enjoyed the practice session before the show.
Wow. Never saw this version before of one of my favorite songs. And it's gold. Didn't miss a note. Usually big harmonies are tough to reproduce live, but these guys killed it. Love that they showed them practicing just that before hand.
Brings back ol memories of being out in the middle of Atlantic & Mediteranean oceans for 100+ days on the USS Independence CV-62..in the early 80's...great times..
By far the most underrated band of all time. You can feel the love and passion they had for the music. They didn't do it for fame or fortune. That's what makes them great.
This is my favorite song by Little River Band. Wow just listened to the video and sent chills up and down it was a time when I got sober and stayed sober since 1983 amen A guy named Andy refers to this song and some how it stuck with me. Thanks Andy you never know what someone says that helps you on this journey of life amen
Congratulations Donald. God bless you it takes a lot of strength and believe in God to get you through what you went through I'm sure he was there through the whole process he's mad with everybody helping them through everything you keep one foot in front of the other and you're going to be doing fine I'm so glad that you're sober God Is Watching Over You he watches over all of us stay safe peace out once again love you life to the fullest
Typo on the word mad I didn't put that one in there say that he's always with you sorry about that Google speech sometimes for doing what they want LOL
Congrats Donald, I was trading my wife and kids for alcohol, cocaine and loose women and calling it "cool change" at about the time you were figuring it out. Hit bottom in '88 and it's been a good life ever since. Good luck to you!
The Platinum Disc song which will be played in this Earth for another 100 Years more.This is an Imortal song which will be Glittering like a Diamond forever. GLENN U ARE A LEGEND.LOVE U MAN WHAT A SINGER BUDY.THOSE DAYS WILL NEVER EVER EVER EVER COME BACK.!!!!!! I MISS IT WITH ALL MY HEART. 'OH' GOD.!!!!!!!
My best friend in high school and I were in concert choir and we would sing the whole album over a 6 pack on weekends. Super good singing, key word singing. RIP bro
@@tutubeas10 you might disagree on these two since you sound like a rocker, but I'm not opposed to some Bee Gees or ONJ. No seventies playlist is complete without something by them. Lol
I was in my 20s when The Little River Band, The Moody Blues, and others like them with their 'easy listening ' rock sound came along. But listening to their music sent me back to being 16 all over again.
I had the pleasure of living in Melbourne from 1974-1977. Awesome Australian acts like Little River Band, AC/DC, Air Supply and Sherbet were frequent guests on the weekly Countdown TV program. I did not realize how fortunate I was.
I have often joked that every hit song that I can sing along with from the late 70s/early 80s that I don't know who it is by, is by the Little River Band. They had so many great songs across a broad swath of the musical spectrum. Great harmonies, great hooks, great lyrics. Thanks LRB for being the greatest f-ing band that nobody really appreciates enough.
These guys are right up there with the Eagles as far as harmonizing. Lead vocals right on par with like of Don Henley . They're also very musically talented
Glenn Shorrock has a very remarkable voice. This Band was my favourite band in my young years, i loved this extraordinery musicians. These formative period I remember todays with a great thankfulness and melancholie, that it will be no come back. Allow me to make one more comment. Every era has its music. But for the life of me, I can't do anything with today's music. It lacks soul.
Nobody sings like that unfortunately. This band is still relevant right now they're still playing the music on the radio still one of the best bands ever God bless everybody peace out play safe
These were good days am 63 now the world is so off balanced no peace or love anymore, we wake up to turmoil everyday ,since 2018 things have been pretty bad for me alot of loss in my life 😢.
![Noob To Max With DRAGON REWORK In Blox Fruits [FULL MOVIE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LnBMOinoOvA/mqdefault.jpg)
Little river band deserves to be in the rock hall of fame.
I'm an old fart in the US and I totally agree. Good music.
The original LRB. Not the knockoff imposters.
you mean the rock and role fame of Australia
So doesn't Billy Squire
-hof is a joke now ... !-
2023-2024 is time for a COOL CHANGE!
The right song for these weird times .

Love this comment so much!!!!
@@MrsRebekah45 Oh thank you
You're simple. Yet inspirational story.
Thank you for your service
They say Don Hensley of the Eagles is the "golden throat" of rock, but this guy, Glenn Shorrock has a golden voice that is a contender for sure! Love, love, LOVE this song!
Surly bring great memories lm 57 this year and always loved glen and the band and there music 🎶
Totally agree! Saw them live and Glenn's the best!
I think that this song is the most beautiful song I have ever heard in my lifetime!😇
That's Henley, thank you!😉😊
And to this day, he still has that GREAT Voice..as you know alot of musicians lose their Great vocals as they get older......
Said goodbye to my sister for the last time... While playing her favorite song...
Always remember good times when I hear this...
Just lost my sis last night. She passed from liver failure. I will miss her.
I feel your words, this is my song with my dad. Its always been in my eyes, 40 odd years on we go. Dad whistles this song perfect and beautifully.

The best of the best.
As a 63 yr old this song brings back so many wonderful sentiments, memories 🥲🥲🤗😊😚
You got that right from this 64 year old
yes it does and takes me back to HS memories ❤
Born in 1960. Fell into a lot of Great music throughout my early years
@@fredd9323i was born in 1960 also ,i think the little river band put Ausie rock on the map
As a 57year old, it even affects ME too.... I get goosebumps!!! ❤❤
Thank God for 70s rock!!!!
Hearing them do the harmony in the room before they play Priceless no auto tune just talent!❤️🎙🥁
Glenn Wheatley in the background too.
Yasssss incredible!!
Wow,,,how great it was to live in this generation....great music,,,,tv shows and music.....and no internet.....
For all who grew up and missed out on the late 70's 80's and early 90s...it was a hell of a time.
Sincerely,
Gen X.
FACTS!
Incredible times they were. I just can not believe this shit going on these days. Never would have believed it back then.
Better back then
Yes it was the best time to grow up in Australia, I miss those days...
You are absolutely right it was
Not in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. What a shame.
i like to refer to the hof as the Hall of Shame..big joke.
I think that there's a reason for this. The people using the Little River Band name now are imposters. A Guy bought the rights to the music and is touring playing LRB's music with his own band.
I'm 63 and this still works for me
71 , still works for me too !! Great song !!
80's Music Still Rocks ???
2023!!!!
Listen!!!
This is how "REAL MUSIC" sounds!!!!
LRB are with out a doubt the best Australian band to date and I am a 74 year old veteran who's seen a hell of a lot of bands.Thanks LRB for the fabulous memories ❤️.
On ya mate.
im 73 year old vet love these guys
They should be in the Rock an Roll hall of fame
so should Foghat, I laughed when I heard the go gos got in over these great bands.
I agree, but under what name?if they used Little River Band and or LRB, they'd be sued.
Rock n Roll hall of fame is woke, letting in groups that DID NOT play Rock n Roll. It's so pathetic and Little river Band SHOULD BE IN THERE!!
@@chadhosmer9357 woke? You sound like a complete moron. 😂
These guys are every bit as good with their harmony as Don Henley and the Eagles, maybe even better. And I am a very big fan of the Eagles. This song was on the radio when I got my driver's license in November. Right before Christmas break my parents let me miss most of the morning of school so I could drive my brother to Galveston and bring his car back. This song played 3 or r times on that trip.
This song is like coming home so good
Better harmonies. Blend. But guitar wise EAGLES. I'm a drummer.
I think LRB is one of the most underrated bands of the 70’s-80’s. The way they harmonized wasn’t something you hear much of these days. I kinda think of LRB as one of the first “boy bands”. Cute as hell, can sing, harmonize, and all the ladies loved them! Keep on a rockin’ Glenn.
Very special to me!
Definitely, except they’re the opposite of a "boy band" 😅 They were great musicians and wrote their own music.
Cheri .. I agree this Song and others they did were on radio all time in Summer of 80s..Brings me back when I was teenager 😊
What is their rating?
@@andyscott5277 I get what you're saying and yes, you are right!
It brought tears to my eyes back in 1979. It just brought them back again in 2024. 20 years from now, it probably will too. 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬😁😁😁😁😁
Man I hope we're still alive to enjoy this...
Same❤
🥹✌️❤
I recently lost my hubby of 33
Yrs, and I did the same and probably will 20 yrs from now. It's just one of those songs.
This has what modern songs don't have....HARMONY!!!!
Bingo 😍😁👍🤩
Seems to me the rest of the World lost it as well 😪
you're on point. Beeb, Wayne and Graeham compliment Glenn so well and they sing it well both in studio and live...John Farnham had a different style and some liked it but I still prefer Glenn's laid back style as though he's only talking to you and not really trying to make an effort out of it...love LRB
Or soul
Hence “Harmony” technology
You know you got talent when you sound just as good live as on your album. Thats a rarity.
Agree 100 percent
Indeed.
Decades before autotune and years before ProTools. Laid down on tape. Amazing, isn't it?
Not to mention nailing those harmonies a capella
Their songs still send chills thru me & I'm on the late side of Life !
Ah yes 'Reminiscing '...❤
One of the greatest bands of all time.. Beautiful song!!!
Never has been a better band than LRB, ever. I was honored to attend their concert in Fairbanks Alaska 35 years ago and they were as they always are, #1. So many beautiful songs but my favorite is 'Light of Day'. all their song demonstrate their profession and love for music but Light of Day is Magical from the 'First Under the Wire' Album. Thanks LRB, you guys are the greatest and thank for sticking around all these years! GOD SPEED AND BLESSINGS!
This song takes me back to the best memories of when I was a young man.
Good old days mate,,
Yes indeedy
Oh yeah
Best of times, can't go back,but I can close my eyes and sing. There I go again!
@@critterdoc93 I do the same!
The good old days, when music was more concerned with moving your soul than it was your feet.
Remember hanging out with my friends, called them friends back then, not bro's. Drinking beer and playing pool, good old days !!!!
This guys voice is pure GOLD
He sings from the heart, and actually believes in the song! That is why!
Vince Gedeon Neil diamond?
Yep😁👍
@@barryjohnson1973 Glenn Shorrock
100% agree with you! Still my favorite band of all time!
How are they not in the hall of fame?! One of the very best bands ever.
Greatest lyric I’ve ever heard “I’ve never been romantic and sometimes I don’t care I know you think it’s selfish but let me breathe the air”
Something about this song makes me feel at peace.
LRB takes me back to when I was young and carefree Wish we could all go back. Time was way simpler
Beautiful
Wow what an incredible performance
I grew up on the little river band this song bring me to tears everytime ❤😢
sometimes you just reminisce and say thank you guys. The rare song that is a part of your entire life.
May well be the greatest multi singing group of all time the voices bend so effortlessly
Glen Frey said exactly this when he played live with them in Sydney. High praise indeed.
Growing up in the late 60's and 1970's was when the music scene exploded with the best musical talent. I bought that album and wore out 10 nettles on my Technics turntable. I still get goosebumps everytime I play this beautiful song from one of my favorite bands growing up.
One of the best songs ever
Absolutely agree
Just lost my Mom to Covid. I've listened to this song like 50-times in the last 3- weeks. She was 70 and very healthy...BUT, I really think she was ready for a "Cool Change." The stress of life gave her daily migraines that haunted her. The pain is almost unbearable....I miss her so much!!!
I’m sorry for your loss. May her memory bring you peace.
I'm so sorry for your loss
This song.os so.calmomg.and soothing
I hope you are finding peace and enjoying the memories you had together.
Sorry for your loss.
@@sandyaltizer3202 - thank you!
Sorry 😞 for your loss.
People these days don't make any sensible and meanigful music like this anymore. These days; beat, melody and thousand likes is all you need. Sad.
What a beautiful song. The harmonies are amazing. Well done Glenn. Not only did you sing it beautifully, you also wrote it.
I hadn't heard this song for decades, now i cant get enough of it!
Brings back so many memories of my youth and makes me tear up!
Can't hear this group often enough. Such wonderful talent. Harmony!
LRB had the best harmonies ever! I am in love with Glenn's voice!! You can feel his longing in this performance. It's pure magic.
Awesome! Graham is singing this. Glenn wrote it.
Part of music’s beauty is creating a vision & feeling emotion. LRB did this like few other bands could. Songs that make you want to live and love life.
Glenn Shorrock's voice is like silk and damn, he was gorgeous.
LRB just takes me back. Heart ache, heart warming, heart healing.
I'm 60 and still enjoying LRB.
Underrated band. Great voices, tight instruments.....LRB reminds me of the Eagles.
You're so right. These two bands greatest.
Just watched a music show on tv and a aussie interviewing the eagles mentioned that both bands had an incredible similarity in the harmony in their voices, and it brought me here to listen to the song, 55 yrs old, brings back memories,
Better
Absolutely~NO doubt a wonderfu11y harmonic~°\ §uperb Tune -😻💕😻🎶🌈 in fact would be a no1 💖if was an" Eagles song"»~ 😻🎶💖🎶😻💕🌈
They were never underrated.
Glenn, you guys were the original and by far the best.
Dang, what a voice. Pitch perfect and fantastic timbre.
Little River Band had so many great songs - many of them hits! Sadly, they were underrated and pushed to the side for other "hit' making artists. Their harmonys are spot on. I really enjoyed the practice session before the show.
I've loved this song for so long.
Wow. Never saw this version before of one of my favorite songs. And it's gold. Didn't miss a note. Usually big harmonies are tough to reproduce live, but these guys killed it. Love that they showed them practicing just that before hand.
if you know your music, harmonies will find themselves.
GOLD, JERRY! JERRY!!!
They're not in the rock and roll hall of fame because the so-called people That think they know music, really don't.
Fully agree
Brings back ol memories of being out in the middle of Atlantic & Mediteranean oceans for 100+ days on the USS Independence CV-62..in the early 80's...great times..
I'm a 67year old whos still afan rock on guys
Saw them in 78, my lord they were good and this guy has a voice.
By far the most underrated band of all time. You can feel the love and passion they had for the music. They didn't do it for fame or fortune. That's what makes them great.
not so sure about that. there have been a lot of underrated bands. I'd put Firefall high on that list. Cinderella.
One of the greatest voices of rock and roll history whit not a doubt in my mind 🎤🎼🌟👍🏻
Memories 😊 grew up one Of my favorite since HS years an now at 60, I loveThe years of memories it's been in my life.😢
My favorite song of Little River Band. I saw them twice in concert. Awesome.
No auto tune. Amazing vocals. Tight harmonies.
This is my favorite song by Little River Band. Wow just listened to the video and sent chills up and down it was a time when I got sober and stayed sober since 1983 amen A guy named Andy refers to this song and some how it stuck with me. Thanks Andy you never know what someone says that helps you on this journey of life amen
Congratulations and God bless you. Stay safe. And peace out
Congratulations Donald!
Congratulations Donald.

Typo on the word mad I didn't put that one in there say that he's always with you sorry about that Google speech sometimes for doing what they want LOL
Congrats Donald, I was trading my wife and kids for alcohol, cocaine and loose women and calling it "cool change" at about the time you were figuring it out. Hit bottom in '88 and it's been a good life ever since. Good luck to you!
One of my all time favorite bands, the mid 70s and all of the 80s had the best bands and songs in my opinion
Truly amazing vocals
The Platinum Disc song which will be played in this Earth for another 100 Years more.This is an Imortal song which will be Glittering like a Diamond forever. GLENN U ARE A LEGEND.LOVE U MAN WHAT A SINGER BUDY.THOSE DAYS WILL NEVER EVER EVER EVER COME BACK.!!!!!! I MISS IT WITH ALL MY HEART. 'OH' GOD.!!!!!!!
Never heard this song before, I continue to be amazed by Graeham G’s song writing…he is one of the greats
I was fortunate to see them in the late 70's. They were fantastiic! They outshined the headliner Foreigner that night.
My favorite Little river band tune!
My best friend in high school and I were in concert choir and we would sing the whole album over a 6 pack on weekends. Super good singing, key word singing. RIP bro
Good on you, keep doing it
Glen Sharrock is an awesome singer and frontman! LRB are incredible!
In 1983 at the junior high school bus stop, my friends and I would harmonize to Cool Change. Yeah, we never had many girlfriends.
😅
One of the best singers and harmonies ever.
I've liked this song since I was a teenager and spent all this time believing this was an American band. Well done aussies.
Late,but you know who else are Aussies? Air Supply and INXS. Amongst many others.
@@markberryhill2715Yes, Air Supply, 😆my little sister loved those. But my favourite music bands from Down Under definitely are AC-DC and Men at Work.
@@tutubeas10 you might disagree on these two since you sound like a rocker, but I'm not opposed to some Bee Gees or ONJ. No seventies playlist is complete without something by them. Lol
Glenn Shorrock simply fantastic
Thats my music ❤
I was in my 20s when The Little River Band, The Moody Blues, and others like them with their 'easy listening ' rock sound came along. But listening to their music sent me back to being 16 all over again.
I go back to this live clip when need great harmony and memories.
The true LRB. Classic voices
I had the pleasure of living in Melbourne from 1974-1977. Awesome Australian acts like Little River Band, AC/DC, Air Supply and Sherbet were frequent guests on the weekly Countdown TV program. I did not realize how fortunate I was.
Just raw talent!!! Nothing extra to make it sound better...it just IS better!!!
Hard to realise that the gorgeous girl is in her mid sixties now. Scary how time flies.
I have often joked that every hit song that I can sing along with from the late 70s/early 80s that I don't know who it is by, is by the Little River Band. They had so many great songs across a broad swath of the musical spectrum. Great harmonies, great hooks, great lyrics. Thanks LRB for being the greatest f-ing band that nobody really appreciates enough.
So glad you posted that, you are 100% correct, and well written, good on you Aussie
These guys are right up there with the Eagles as far as harmonizing. Lead vocals right on par with like of Don Henley . They're also very musically talented
Glenn Shorrock has a very remarkable voice. This Band was my favourite band in my young years, i loved this extraordinery musicians. These formative period I remember todays with a great thankfulness and melancholie, that it will be no come back. Allow me to make one more comment. Every era has its music. But for the life of me, I can't do anything with today's music. It lacks soul.
One of the best songs of all time- fact
I was mesmerized by this song as a young man. I remember going almost trance-like when it came on the radio. 🙏
The harmonies on this live version kick arse.
As a 57year old, it even affects ME too.... I get goosebumps!!! ❤❤❤
Love all of the harmony in this group. They were my favorite group of the 80s' They don't make groups like LRB anymore!❤❤❤ ❤🤟
Nobody sings like that unfortunately. This band is still relevant right now they're still playing the music on the radio still one of the best bands ever God bless everybody peace out play safe
They’re still touring. Gonna be in Nashville in a couple weeks!
Terrific band! Creative Human beings! The albitross and whales are your brother. Breath the air.
I like how Glenn is still getting his clothes together while warming up backstage.
These were good days am 63 now the world is so off balanced no peace or love anymore, we wake up to turmoil everyday ,since 2018 things have been pretty bad for me alot of loss in my life 😢.
When life has me worn ragged this is a go to video.
Oh my goodness! I can not get enough of these guys! Then when I was a young teenager and now as a older woman. Love them. The vocals are amazing 😎
They have aged like us….gracefully ….soundtrack of my best years
Yep, me too!!
The talent of this band is sub par to none... 5 decades of classic beautiful music....long live LRB
Not many singers sound this great live such a beautiful voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
yesss
I was a teen when this came out. LRB always stood out to me. They still do.
