Gasp! Reactors have finally discovered that Van Morrison has other songs besides Brown-eyed Girl and Domino, (great as those songs are)! Van is my special favourite!
Underlying spiritual message here is that the ‘foghorn’ blows for us all when we get closer to the exit ramp towards life’s end and go ‘into the mystic’.
Van Morrison great singer. You can’t go wrong with him ! Please do Brown Eyed Girl and Moon Dance. He is from Northern Ireland, and began his career in 1964
Those are the two I was gonna suggest, I love them. Also, I generally prefer old gospel songs over contemporary, but Van's Whenever God Shines His Light is great!
Ireland's Van Morrison, a great poet and wordsmith - using his vocal talents to breathe life into his beautiful words. Not sure he has made a bad song in his long and much loved career.
Oh yeah, he made some bad songs. Well, sort of. I mean those songs he made to complete a contract he couldn't get out of were so awful and hilarious that they were still pretty good.
@@Grendelbc I met some N Irelanders once in a pub in Kenmare. They were from Derry. Derry. They were strong dissenters to British/Orange occupancy/rule and bought our drinks and hung out with us in a lock-in. You can't hold geography against folks like that.
@@merlball8520 what's your point, the so called dissidents are the ulster Scots who have been there for centuries, what if Britain kicked out all Irish who have leached off the British for centuries, would that be a fair exchange I would support that.
He did a string of great albums in a row that didn't have anything except great songs. Astral Weeks, Moondance, His Band and The Street Choir, St. Dominic's Preview.
Saxes on this track are by Jack Schroer (alto) and Collin Tilton (tenor). I used to see Collin Tilton in bar bands in the '70s in the Woodstock, NY area, which is where Van was based when the MOONDANCE album was recorded. Besides the vocals, Van plays guitar and tambourine on this cut.
💯💯💯💯 agreed “I have played on repeat many of times these albums. Moondance” . Carole King’s “Tapestry” Paul Simon’s “Negotiations and Love Songs”, Bob Marley’s “Legend”.
My favorite from Van is "And It Stoned Me" check it out or for something special check out Van's performance of "Caravan" from The Last Waltz , you will love it!
You both did EXACTLY what a person who loves music should do when listening to this song, you shut your eyes to shut out all other senses to truly FEEL the song! The bass is EPIC and the tone of Van's voice with the contrast of the bass and ambient sounds and horns is why this song is my ultimate #1 favorite song. Watching others experience the feeling you get when listening for the first time is so touching, thank you for doing Van justice and reacting with grace and appreciation ♥ New sub here!
FINALLY, this is one that Iv'e been waiting for. There is no one who projects such great acoustic sounds like him, his "Astrel Weeks" album is a stunning masterpiece ,every song on it is classic...i.e: "Ballerina" or "Slim Slow Slider"... man it dosn't get any better than that.
@@dougieyou If you like those two, I highly recommend everything by him as he only has three main releases including only one true studio album. I don't know how familiar you are with Jeff.
Van IS the man! Into the Mystic may be my favorite of his songs and that's no easy choice because he's done so much wonderful stuff. This particular song has been performed by an awful lot of artists over the years which simply reinforces how good it is. Btw, Bob Dylan once said that if you want to hear God smile, just get Van Morrison to play Tupelo Honey. Perhaps you should check that one out next.
Welcome to Celtic Soul. One of the greatest songs of all time and one that I recommended over and over again. Now all you need to react to by Van The Man is "Someone Like You".
In the 70 I got the record "Moondance" with the single "into the Music". It is my all favorite music. Now i'm nearly 77 and every time i'm touched by Van's songs.
Van was a Irish soul singer blessed with a bluesy voice! Dive into his library. He has some awesome songs that will blow you away. Growing up on his music was awesome!
Van Morrison is a world treasure. There's no one like him. I'd suggest checking out his song St. Dominic's Preview (my favorite) and Jackie Wilson Said (I'm In Heaven When You Smile) both from the St. Dominic's Preview album. So very very special.
This is my favorite Van Morrison song but he has so very many more that are equally as good. Check out Tupelo Honey and Wild Night. One’s a great ballad and the other is a rocker.
Not just great, his delivery transformed the song, turning it into a bitter commentary to a former lover at the end of their relationship. It makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. The arrangement is brilliant as well.
Some time a while back they did a survey of surgeons and asked them what songs they most liked to listen too while performing surgery. This song was voted number one and it just totally makes sense. Its soooo relaxing.
I went to countless rock concerts in the 60's and early 70's,. I took my girlfriend (now wife) to see Van Morrison in the Oklahoma city Civic Center in 73 it was her first concert. One of the best concerts I ever attended.
ITS A '74 RELEASE AND I SWEAR TO GOD HE WAS STILL WORKING ON IT A COUPLE YEARS LATER IN COTATI CA. 'THE INN OF THE BEGINNING' USED TO GO WATCH HIM WORK HIS TUNES FOR RECORDING
A friend introduced me to this song right after a breakup 27 years ago. It calmed my soul and my tears. I have loved Van Morrison since that day. This is of course my favorite ♥️♥️♥️
Morrison was lead singer of 60's group, THEM, famous for "Gloria" But his solo work is his best. You MUST hear "Baby Please Don't Go" it's a great rocker
Suggested this song several times... so glad it has come up. One of the most beautiful songs ever written IMO. The foghorn is death and into the mystic is the afterlife. Thank you so much.
Always been my fave by V.M. . It's one of those songs you can't hear enough of. I have been to many concerts in my life but sadly never got to go see Van Morrison. I know how much i missed and regret never getting the chance.
@@stevemohammed3497 :Oh i wish i could. My age and health have made it too hard now. You are so lucky! I think 22 might be a record for seeing one band. I have been to many concerts in my life, i feel blessed.
Can’t tell you how many times I have listen to this song but I have your reaction to this a lot because it reminds me of the first time I heard it … so enthusiastic.. love it
Yes indeed, Van the Man is from Belfast, Ireland, and one of the most brilliant singer/songwriters ever. There is so much treasure waiting down this particular rabbit hole, and the delights are almost endless with this man, the great Sir George Ivan Morrison. Please give a listen to Moondance, Caravan, Tupelo Honey, Wavelength, Domino, Crazy Love, Have I Told You Lately That I Love You, Hungry For Your Love, And It Stoned Me, Jackie Wilson Said, Madame George, the list goes on and on…so many incredibly brilliant albums overall. He’s a true ICON…
I have SO been waiting for this!! Absolutely magical, right? Can’t begin to explain where this song takes me! And will continue to take me!! Thanks guys…you’re the best! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Love this song. Zac Brown Band does a live version of their song “Free” which goes right “Into the Mystic”. Their version led me to the original and I was grateful to find Van. Love both versions. Peace and love, guys.
That movie is where I first heard and fell in love with this song! I was only about 10 years old at the time but knew instantly the song was special. 40 years later and I still listen to it regularly. The movie was pretty good too
@@feminist5641 yeah, I was 19 when this movie came out in '89, saw it when it was on HBO if I remember correctly. Been an all time favorite ever since. And yep, the movie was good as well.
YES!!! You finally got to Van Morrison. His lyrics are superb, his phrasing sublime and the band is just top notch. This was dance night music for hubby and I. put the kids to bed, share a drink or 2 and slow dance to Van Morrison. Good times, good times.
YES, YES, YES Van Morrison. I absolutely love his music! I have been waiting for you guys to react to this song specifically. It is my favorite from him.
OMG! The guru himself. Van "The Man" Morrison. Poet, spiritual journeyman, song-smith, troubadour...I could go on. His library is vast as a solo artist and you must also check out his original band "Them".
Van Morrison is a genius who surrounds himself with unbelievable musicians. Please do Moondance for something different - the entire album is great. He also has a country song called Once A Day Here Comes The Night by Them showcases Van in his first band
So sweet to see folks your age loving what we grew up with.. Oh yeah, btw, I'm 75 years old and loved this when I was your age. rock and roll will never die.
In Addition to all his most known songs , his duet with John Lee Hooker was a great one. He is a great Blues guy. Try he and John Lee Hooker doing "It serves me right to suffer". A fantastic blues tune.
My favorite Van song! So many little intricacies in the music and the way he sings and breathes the words. I’m not a huge Van Morrison fan, but this is one of my favorite songs by ANY artist.
My all time number 1 artist, always and forever since discovering him when I was 19. Spotify let's me know I listen to him more than any other artist every year!. Now my young adult kids love him too. He is timeless and perfect and unique!
I love this song so much, it has so much meaning. My therapist ( and dear friend John Duffy ) was sick with liver cancer. I was blessed the day I met this man, the day I found out that he had passed this song and a few others were on his timeline. I want this song played at my wake, I cry whenever I hear it ♥️😎
Van The Man has so many incredible soulful songs.Here some that for your own fulfillment you need to react to;And It Stoned Me, Moondance, Have I told You Lately,Jackie Wilson Said,Warm Love, And Tupelo Honey!
In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. It makes me feel peaceful just to hear it.
100%
up there with Iz wonderful world
Yes this song is almost perfect. I would say it was perfect but nothing is lol
Agree. Van is the man.
Agree❤❤
And that folks, is how to write, arrange and sing a song. Plain incredible.
masterpiece.
Couldn't of said it any better ! 1970 folks.
Sexiest song ever!
Amen!!
imagine just once in a lifetime to be able to give life to a masterpiece like this.
This one never ceases to give me chills. "Ere the bonnie boat was one." We're all in the ship of life together, sailing into the mystic. ❤️
Really, that's true!
Word.
5:05 This is Amber! Rob, you must never interrupt when Amber is sooo into the moment😂 This is why I love you guys. So genuine!
Yes, yes, yes. Her glorious smile.
@glenndespres5317 at 5:25 she was on her way to a moment and he just cut her out of it. Haha
Amber is tapping into her own gypsy soul.....she completely gets the vibe.
There isn't a single mood that Van Morrison hasn't explored or defined. Truly a poetic champion and a musical genius.
What YOU said!!
That describes his music perfectly. Thank you.
I like to travel through music 🙋🏻♀️
Seven Hunnid on RUclips is suprisly entertaining cuh
i might be wrong, don't know all his stuff, but can't remember him being part of the celtic thrash movement of mid 80's
Van (The Man) Morrison "Domino" & "Moondance"
..Both True Classics Among MANY By Him.
And “Golria” that he did with his pre-solo band Them
Tupelo Honey - is a favorite as well.
@@joeking6763 I Already Suggested That One,, I Love It Too,, Among Many Others By Him.
Also TB Sheets
I have always loved it when he sings about the foghorn, and there's a subtle musical foghorn under that verse.
The sax is beautiful, too, isn't it?
pee wee reese on that sax
His whole Moondance album is fantastic. It's love-making music. 🥰
💯💘
I’m 70 years old and I still tear up to this song. I listened to Van ever since my high school days.
flawless album
Van is the man✅
“And when that foghorn blows”…and the cellos come in sounding like a foghorn!
To me, best Van Morrison song.
One of the best songs ever written, in my opinion.
Gasp! Reactors have finally discovered that Van Morrison has other songs besides Brown-eyed Girl and Domino, (great as those songs are)! Van is my special favourite!
Me too. No idea why!
😂🤣😂🤣
Van (The Man) Morrison "Gloria" & "Tupelo Honey"..Absolute Classics.
Truly one of the most soul-stirring songs ever recorded. Glad you loved it.
Soul-stirring is the perfect description.
Too bad I could hit the like button only once.
Underlying spiritual message here is that the ‘foghorn’ blows for us all when we get closer to the exit ramp towards life’s end and go ‘into the mystic’.
this is one of the best top 5 songs of all time
"Moondance" and "Tupelo Honey" are similar to this one.
For something upbeat from Morrison, try "Bright Side of the Road" and "Domino"
Tupelo Honey is the one that came straight to mind. That song is amazing!
I'm surprised nobody brought up Wavelength, another fantastic non-commercial song!
J/Amber, His "Moondance", "Domino" and "Wild Night" are next for you!!
wild night is amazing i like john mellencamps cover to
All great choices to react to!
"Moondance" is a Van Morrison must. It has piano, horns and even a little bit of scat. I know you'll both love it.
Every man had or has a woman that fits this song perfectly. I let mine slip away 26 years ago but I can still see her when I hear this great song 🎶
Van Morrison great singer. You can’t go wrong with him ! Please do Brown Eyed Girl and Moon Dance. He is from Northern Ireland, and began his career in 1964
They loved Brown Eyed Girl. ruclips.net/video/E_MDUXR7peg/видео.html
they did Brown Eyed Girl already its on youtube
They should try One Two Brown Eyes when he was still with Them.
Done “Brown Eyed Girl”… ruclips.net/video/E_MDUXR7peg/видео.html
Those are the two I was gonna suggest, I love them. Also, I generally prefer old gospel songs over contemporary, but Van's Whenever God Shines His Light is great!
I played this song at my husband’s funeral. Makes me cry every time.
❤️
I wish I had played this at my husband’s memorial service...3 1/2 years ago...
Plus...my husband was a Morrison...❤️
This was my mother’s memorial song, as well… ❤️😇
I would like to have it played at mine also ! My wife and I are 3 months shy of our 46th anniversary and I realize that time is short !
I want "Precious Time" at mine. Love Van the Man.
My parents headstone says “Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic”
Amber was so into the song at 5:26, and Jordan paused it wow, the look on her face 😢 says it all!

His Moondance and Astral weeks albums are classics
Van’s saxophone playing on this one is sweet
He did a string of great albums in a row that didn't have anything except great songs. Astral Weeks, Moondance, His Band and The Street Choir, St. Dominic's Preview.

💯💯💯💯 agreed “I have played on repeat many of times these albums. Moondance” .
Carole King’s “Tapestry”
Paul Simon’s “Negotiations and Love Songs”,

This song has touched me deeply for over 50 years . Never gets old .☮️💜🎶

Grew up on the ocean. Left the coast 42 years ago. This song calls me. One day I will be able to hear the fog horn call and I'll be headed home.
..and besides writing most of his songs, vocals and guitars he's also the horn player!! a man of many talents.... it's why we call him Van The Man!
RIP, Barry Bailey, lead guitarist for Atlanta Rhythm Section! Died in his sleep this morning!
Horrible loss. But he would say-
🎶"I'm Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonite!"🎵
Rest In Piece
Crazy Love and Tupelo Honey are my favorite Van tunes.

This song is really close to my heart…it’s what we played for my dads funeral.
This was played at my husband’s best friend funeral. Always tear up and think of John when I hear this song.
Played at my wife's funeral as well
I'm sorry for your loss.
My sister requested this song be played at her funeral.
Finally.
Welcome to Celtic Soul. One of the greatest songs of all time and one that I recommended over and over again.
Now all you need to react to by Van The Man is "Someone Like You".
Love this reaction, just before your first break where he says "I wanna rock your gypsy soul" it looked like Amber had just had her soul touched.
The best “vibe” song of all time.
This song is fricken awesome, I love all Van Morrison’s music but this is in my top 3 of his music
In the 70 I got the record "Moondance" with the single "into the Music". It is my all favorite music. Now i'm nearly 77 and every time i'm touched by Van's songs.
Van was a Irish soul singer blessed with a bluesy voice! Dive into his library. He has some awesome songs that will blow you away. Growing up on his music was awesome!
He still is.
Jay comparing Van to John Denver?? Totally different sounds and vibes.
One of my faves! You’d also like Moondance or Brown Eyed Girl.
Blue Money.
Cleaning Windows.
Jackie Wilson Said.
They did “Brown Eyed Girl” ruclips.net/video/E_MDUXR7peg/видео.html
My two favourites!
Van Morrison is a world treasure. There's no one like him. I'd suggest checking out his song St. Dominic's Preview (my favorite) and Jackie Wilson Said (I'm In Heaven When You Smile) both from the St. Dominic's Preview album. So very very special.

I’m a big fan of his Live album in San Francisco.

Beautiful … yes, a Belfast cowboy with a gypsy soul … Magnificent ❤
This is my favorite Van Morrison song but he has so very many more that are equally as good. Check out Tupelo Honey and Wild Night. One’s a great ballad and the other is a rocker.
The whole album “ Tupelo Honey” is amazing. All killer, no filler.
When he was in the band “Them” they did a Dylan cover called “ it’s all over now baby blue” it’s great
Not just great, his delivery transformed the song, turning it into a bitter commentary to a former lover at the end of their relationship. It makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. The arrangement is brilliant as well.
@@PaulWilliams-ko5fu 100% agree
This is a great song by Van. My favorite Van Morrison song is Tupelo Honey. 🥰

Van Morrison - Someone Like You
🎹🤘
A friend introduced me to this song right after a breakup 27 years ago. It calmed my soul and my tears. I have loved Van Morrison since that day. This is of course my favorite ♥️♥️♥️
One of my faves. Can't go wrong with Van. Only saw him once. Punctual, blew us away, then he was gone.
Morrison was lead singer of 60's group, THEM, famous for "Gloria" But his solo work is his best. You MUST hear "Baby Please Don't Go" it's a great rocker
Van Morrison, before his solo career, was in a band called THEM. Try Gloria from them.
Yes, he is Irish. Born in Belfast.
Good call
Gloria so amazing i love the outsiders too
Being from Belfast makes someone a lot different than just being from Ireland.
“Moondance”is the album that this song is from and it is a masterpiece…one of my favs of all time(lots of sax)!!!
Suggested this song several times... so glad it has come up. One of the most beautiful songs ever written IMO. The foghorn is death and into the mystic is the afterlife. Thank you so much.
One of my favourite songs ever! I heard it in a movie many, many years ago and fell in love with it.
Always been my fave by V.M. . It's one of those songs you can't hear enough of. I have been to many concerts in my life but sadly never got to go see Van Morrison. I know how much i missed and regret never getting the chance.
He’s still touring Kathy.. I’m on number 22 of his live shows. You need to witness his Magic . 👌🇮🇪
@@stevemohammed3497 :Oh i wish i could. My age and health have made it too hard now. You are so lucky! I think 22 might be a record for seeing one band. I have been to many concerts in my life, i feel blessed.

Such an amazing, beautiful song, Ooooo, yeah, takes me back...Thanx for the memories, Blessings
Can’t tell you how many times I have listen to this song but I have your reaction to this a lot because it reminds me of the first time I heard it … so enthusiastic.. love it
I love Van Morrison. So many good songs; Gloria, Domino, Wonderful Remark, These are the Days, Someone Like You.
I'm always surprised that more people don't do reactions to this. It's a unique and amazing song.
Yes indeed, Van the Man is from Belfast, Ireland, and one of the most brilliant singer/songwriters ever. There is so much treasure waiting down this particular rabbit hole, and the delights are almost endless with this man, the great Sir George Ivan Morrison. Please give a listen to Moondance, Caravan, Tupelo Honey, Wavelength, Domino, Crazy Love, Have I Told You Lately That I Love You, Hungry For Your Love, And It Stoned Me, Jackie Wilson Said, Madame George, the list goes on and on…so many incredibly brilliant albums overall. He’s a true ICON…
ALL ARE GREAT!! but . . . JACKIE WILSON is my FAV of his upbeat tempos!! ❣️😃👍😃❣️
I have SO been waiting for this!! Absolutely magical, right? Can’t begin to
explain where this song takes me! And will continue to take me!! Thanks
guys…you’re the best! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Love this song. Zac Brown Band does a live version of their song “Free” which goes right “Into the Mystic”. Their version led me to the original and I was grateful to find Van. Love both versions. Peace and love, guys.
First time I heard this was in the movie "Immediate Family"... Glenn Close and Mary Stuart Masterson dancing to this song was so sweet.
That movie is where I first heard and fell in love with this song! I was only about 10 years old at the time but knew instantly the song was special. 40 years later and I still listen to it regularly. The movie was pretty good too

My favorite Van Morrison song. You guys are hitting home runs here lately. Love it!!
Next Van Morrison reaction should be of his band Them "Gloria". It's probably his most iconic song.
YES, YES, YES Van Morrison. I absolutely love his music! I have been waiting for you guys to react to this song specifically. It is my favorite from him.
The unmistakable voice of Van Morrison. He is a legend.
Fantastic! If we’re talking Van Morrison, then “Sweet Thing” and “Tupelo Honey” are a must! 💜✌️🎸
OMG! The guru himself. Van "The Man" Morrison. Poet, spiritual journeyman, song-smith, troubadour...I could go on. His library is vast as a solo artist and you must also check out his original band "Them".
You have stolen the words from my keyboard! The very terms I would choose to describe the man.
Amen!!
“Gloria”,
“Baby please don’t go”( also covered by AC/DC).
“It’s all over now baby blue” from Van Morrisons band THEM. Check ‘em out.
"AAaaannnnddd, I want to rock your Gypsy Soul ... just like in the days of old ... " hits me to the core!!!
Sound track for a good movie. Immediate Family 1989 with Glenn Close, James Woods, Mary Stuart Masterson and Kevin Dillon.
Van Morrison is a genius who surrounds himself with unbelievable musicians. Please do Moondance for something different - the entire album is great. He also has a country song called Once A Day
Here Comes The Night by Them showcases Van in his first band
This is the sexiest song, his breathy vocals and beautiful guitar and bass lines. Chef's kiss!
So sweet to see folks your age loving what we grew up with.. Oh yeah, btw, I'm 75 years old and loved this when I was your age. rock and roll will never die.
This is one of my favorite van Morrison songs. Close to it is "and it stoned me". Please check it out.

Have I told you Lately was our first dance at my wedding. Love that song
Love this song so much. It is hauntingly beautiful. Great choice. Another great one by him is Days Like This.
Haunting...perfect description!
