Santana has always had some of the best Afro -Latin rock-fussion sounds out there. Hats off 🎉.
Carlos sings with his guitar 🎸
That he does.
Yes he does!!!
And he reaches deep inside your guts, grabs hold, and you find yourself dancing on the clouds
He makes it cry! “Yo Carlos you making that guitar cry” (Maria, Maria)
He makes it another voice, backing up and filling in around the lead vocal, adding richness, making a good song great.
Carlos Santana "The Latin Guitar God" his sound spanning since the 60's. Brought the Latin sound back into Rock and Roll. As you have seen he plays the guitar so effortlessly. Carlos is one of my favorite guitar players of all time. So happy to see you bring in some of Latin / California style to your channel. Till the next time. ✌ N ❤
You can't NOT love Carlos Santana!
Carlos Santana is one a few guitarists - along with St. Jimi - whose playing is both visceral and transcendental.
Marie, You'll love his "Evil Ways", "Oye Como Va", "Everybody's Everything and song featuring Michelle Branch "Game Of Love". Carlos doesn't normally sing, but he makes the guitar sing!! Its a guitar strap that holds the guitar.
I was going to say that Santana does his singing thru the guitar. 😁👍
He has a very ‘artsy’ guitar strap that is practical as it distributes the weight of the guitar over a wider area.
If you like a guitar you should listen to Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood (from Live at the El Mocambo)
I agree with SRV except one should Not view "Texas Flood" 1st, save the surprise till later.. ♠W.G.
My best concert ever( seen alot), outdoor Austin 1985! Unreal!!
Seen Clapton and David Gilmour!
For softer solos, favorite is Andy Latimer of Camel!
Ice, Stationary traveller both live!
Nothing Beats SRV!!
Too Young to have seen Hendrix, except on Here. Prefer SRV!!
What a loss! Kicked heroine, died in a helicopter crash.... God has left us!!
Also Yngwie Malmsteen he is amazing too. And Eddie Van Halen
SRV was amazing, life cut short. he got a friend of mine into the blues, and its taken him around the world. the guy is awesome. a jewel from small town iowa!
@@wgdavis5353 it's hard to save SRV surprises lol
Marie, I loved your reaction video. And yes, you said it correctly, it's "clearer". Carlos is an ICON that has been around since the 60s. His spanish input into his guitar playing is so unique that is very easily recognizable! He is a LEGEND in the world of rock music even though he crosses many genres and has done so many collaborations with singers from different musical backgrounds. Glad you have found and enjoy Carlos Santan!
Hi, sweet Marie. Glad you had a go at this song and you liking it. Santana is one of a very few band leaders that likes to stay behind and give the chance for others to shine. Although he writes music and lyrics, he prefers not to sing. In the 70's during a concert, some lifestyle guru was so impressed with his skills that he gave Carlos the name of "Devadip", meaning "The enlighted one". Carlos in an enterview said that if he doesn't "feel" the emotion of a guitar solo, then the public will feel the same way. One word of advice: pause the video 2 or 3 times, give some reaction, slightly rewind (a few seconds will be enough), and continue. This way, the video will not be blocked. Continue exploring the wonderful world of Santana, and you will be amazed. Kind regards and stay safe.
Quick story from something I've read even though I'm a young guy I do research on Music. So I wasn't really around or I was a little baby when this came out. I'm 22 and I think this came out in 2000 or 1999. What I wanted to mention is well was doing his research for myself I realized that Rob Thomas at that time was on a streak of writing hits for other people. For 3 or 4 years he he won't got the song writer of the year a wood because everything that do whose writing for other people was becoming a hit Practically. The cool thing is the story about this out of The mouth of Carlos I saw in an interview. He knew Rob Thomas was riding the best music at that time for other people so he came to Rob Thomas Asking could he write lyrics for this but he never won and Rob Thomas to sing. She wanted someone like George Michael. He said I was looking towards someone like George Michael type voice. Apparently, Rob Thomas after writing the lyrics asked Carlos well can you at least listen to me Singing To this song track? Long story short you see what you got. But that was a cool story To me because this song I cannot see another person singing. But again on this Lee he did not want Rob Thomas to see because honestly he didn't dislike the voice but he just didn't fake it was the voice he wanted on this song. I just think that's really cool and you a check the interview well is kind of cool because right Carlos and Tana is so freakin quiet that it becomes mysterious almost. So if I catch a video where hes actually in an interview answering questions that is dope to me. Make Christmas happy Hanukkah or just happy holidays to you
Carlos has his guitars custom made by a luthier located in eastern Maryland... not only does Carlos make his guitar sing, but he also makes it cry. He is a master.
Carlos - knocking us out since Woodstock. FrenchTastic, you are a brilliant and fascinating woman.
Santana is my favorite guitarist ever, period. Thanks for your review.
Young lady, you have now entered the " Santana " zone!!! Go find and listen to all the Santana music you can, you won't be disappointed!!! Omt. Pass it on!! 👍😎
That is a guitar strap that holds the guitar.
And when you were second guessing yourself about "More clear/clearer"? You can say either one.
We love your channel! Keep up the great work!
True that.. This is the 1st time I've found her channel kind of by accident . I left a very long comment for her which are normally never leave comments that long. I notice she really wanted to understand what Rob Thomas was saying because she mentioned it over and over as she can't understand. I just gave her a little background on him and that he is a Southerner and has a little draw when he sings and stretches words . But you I'm with you she is trying to learn and I can only imagine how hard it would be because I speak 2 languages but there is some Spanish rock vet I just do not understand. So even if I know the language A lot of times I just don't understand certain Spanish Dialects in songs and especially if his hip hop. Have a good holiday and peace
Called a Sash
Called a Sash
You should give the Santana song “Maria, Maria” a try !
Yeah that's cool
Great song!
Carlos Santana played at the Woodstock festival in 1969 (51 years ago!) and was apparently one of the best acts despite being on the drug mescaline. He was hallucinating the whole time, but played brilliantly. He knew the songs so well he didn't even need to think about it, his fingers just knew what to play. They call it 'muscle memory'. 🎸
Yes, try viewing Soul Sacrifice by Santana, live from Woodstock 1969. A really tight performance in spite of the drugs.
It's called a guitar strap. This one is a custom made of [I assume] embroidered beads or fabric with seashell lined on leather.
Carlos rarely sings except for some chorus or background vocals. He has gone through several lead singers over the years and has collaborated with many guest vocals like Rob Thomas on this particular song. Carlos' guitar does all of his singing for him ;)
Pretty cool for a 73 year old, don't you think? I've loved his music for most of my life and hope he keeps making it for another fifty years.
I love it when your head gets to bobbing, adorable reaction.
Your facial reactions were again a joy to watch. Thank you sweet Marie!
Excellent choice! Any time you bring us another Santana reaction will be a happy day!!!
Thanks so much for the inspiration! This really chimes with inspirations I take for my independent music, it’s so nice to see this kind of work out there.
i love Your choices, you always pick good songs, that's why I'm a subscriber of your channel.
The guitar strap, rhythms, colors, and artwork is from Carlos' Mexican American heritage. I don't think Carlos ever sings. Except with his guitar.
i love your reactions -- you always give me a different perspective and you are so nice -- thank you for the reactions -- smiles
This was Santana's first album in a decade or so... and he invited some hot artists to collaborate on this work. What's amazing is that some of the guest artists had their biggest hits ever with Carlos on guitar. I bought the DVD after hearing Rob Thomas and Carlos release this song. The entire concert is very good. If you cannot understand... search for Rob Thomas - Smooth - lyrics.
Great reaction! Carlos usually has another bandmate or a guest singer to lead the vocals on his songs: Matchbox Twenty's Rob Thomas for 1999's "Smooth," and Santana bandmate Greg Rolie for 1970's "Black Magic Woman" and bandmate Alex Ligertwood on 1981's "Winning," and solo artist Michelle Branch for 2002's "The Game of Love."
Ligertwood shone with Hold On.
This is better than the official video. Glad you reacted to this.
Carlos Santana is a living Legend from the Jimmy Hendrix Times/ 60s 70s! From California ! A Latin Rock culturally colorful twist of sounds combined 🎶❣️👍
You don't need to understand. Music is universal. You just have to feel the music.
Such a great song. It rocks which is why it won 3 Grammys. It was written by both Santana & Thomas (of Matchbox Twenty). Wonderful review Marie.
Thank you for playing the live version. I had not seen it before.
Love your reactions...keep it up😀
In the 2000 Grammy awards SANTANA went home with eight Grammy trophies
it's called a STRAP. He has some really cool ones, also love his hats. If you can watch the Kennedy Center Honors where they Salute him for his contribution to the Arts. It is a small story of where he came from to having the largest Grammy win in History with 10 Grammys. Love your Love for watching and learning. It really excites you.
" Give me your heart, make it real, or forget anout it."
🎸💯 Carlos SHREDS that guitar & Rob Thomas' voice is sooo smooth‼ They're smokin hot‼🔥
Hi there FrenchFry, now your in for a treat, enjoy
The singer Rob Thomas (who wrote the song) is from band called Matchbox 20 who are worth a listen
Santana has such a distinctive sound that even though he has so many guest vocalists, after you have listened to only a few Santana songs, you will easily recognize his sound.
The Santana album "Supernatural" that the song is on, won the Album of the Year" at the 2000 Grammy Awards
Good rhythm and great guitarist Carlos
THIS SONG was awarded the Latin Grammy in 1999. Rob Thomas is the lead singer in the group MATCHBOX TWENTY
Great job with your reaction to Smooth from Carlos Santana and Rob Thomas .
Have seen Carlos in concert many times in my life.he always puts on a fantastic show.i think he accepts that his voice is rather average so he always gets great singers to work with him.his guitar work his beautiful.also going to recommend,again,Stevie Ray Vaughan,texas flood,live at the el macambo.i think its the greatest guitar playing ever caught on video.i think it will amaze you.stay safe and strong dear
SRV is undeniable greatness.
Maybe in his old age his voice is average, but when he was young his voice very unique and cool.
Carlos Santana and his brand originated from San Francisco California in the early 1970s. His music will make you want to dance everytime.
Carlos Santana rarely sings, he prefers playing his guitar.
Have a very nice day Marie!! 🤗🙋♂️❤
Rob Thomas is from the band "Matchbox 20".
thank you for the reaction to musical art of our generation . It soothed the soul during the turbulences , ' Oye Como Va' 'Incident at Neshabur ', 'Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock' Batuka no one to Depend on' 'Hope you're Feeling Better' and many more works that are awesome
Here for your eyes, subbed for your reactions...
I don't care for the music but still enjoy your reactions! I do luv the guitar solo!!!!!
I'm glad you weren't able to use the official video, with someone like Carlos Santana, live is much better. It's a great song either way, but watching a legend perform is just something special.
This is the absolute best vid of this song. So much better than the original vid.
Hi Marie, Your videos always put me in a good mood, I enjoy them very much. The scarf you mention is called a "guitar strap." Hope this helps. Have a fun day.
Fun video!
He did two songs with Michelle Branch that i really love, "Game of Love" and "I'm feeling you".
Also there is a nice version from Sarah McLaughlin playing "Angels" with Carlos on accoustic guitar.
This is one of my fave Rob Thomas songs. Santana is the guitar master for many years now. Rob Thomas started with the group Matchbox 20 if you want to check them out.
I love that song!
I could listen to you for hours. Yeah
One of the greatest bands of all time came from Santana. Several members wanted to do a harder style of rock, so they formed JOURNEY. Mother Father, Faithfully, Open Arms, Separate Ways, and Lights are just a few of their most famous songs from a very large catalog of hits.
I saw Santanta first time in 1987,and he is still one off the best :)
when she said he's not even looking at the guitar, well he's only been doing this since the 60's. If not maybe a little longer.
One of the great concerts I have been to . Santana is one of the Greats. Enjoy
My number 2. My number 1 is Santana's soul sacrifice at Woodstock with the drum solo. Santana is a killer on the guitar. No doubt!
for ( in my opinion ) Santanas best instrumental watch "Samba Pa Ti - live in Mexico"... he doesn't play the instrument..he IS the instrument
This song is fantastic . Good choice!
Cool song .. love his music
The one song you need to listen to is Soul Sacrifice live at Woodstock. You will be amazed.
This is the ONE song performance you need to hear to see an amazing drummer. It must be the live performance from Woodstock 1969.

This album was Santana collaborating with other artists. It was called "Supernatural". Eric Clapton was on the record, as was Cee Lo Green, Lauren Hill, Dave Matthews and others. It's one of the biggest selling albums of all time and in 2000 it won 8 Grammys including Record of the Year and Best Pop Collaboration for this song, Album of the Year, Best Pop Album, Best Pop Performance for a Duo for "Maria Maria", Best Pop Instrumental for "El Farol", Best Rock Instrumental for "The Calling" with Clapton, and Best Rock Vocal by a Duo for "Put Your Lights On" (with Everlast).
This was a HUGE album.
The vocalist name Rob Thomas. He wrote the lyrics also. He was in a famous band named matchbox 20. He was the most successful writer for 3 or 4 years straight. He wrote a lot of songs and tracks for other artist that became hits. You can find the lyrics On RUclips. One reason you may not understand him too well is because he is from South Carolina in the USA. In the poor of the USA they have a dialect that is very unique compared to the rest of The USA. It's called a Southern draw . That's probably one reason you're having a hard time understanding him. One thing is obviously English is not your 1st language even though you speak it well and great. But also even for Americans sometimes we got people who sing and their accent or dialect is so different we don't even understand and need lyrics A lot of time.... lol .... There's something in the USA they call blue eyed soul. Basically it started out with the righteous brothers way way back in the day. It's when a white person sings with so and almost is pure soul music. If you don't know what so music is is predominantly something that started with black Americans. You can type it in and you'll see a lot of so put out talk of names out and one would be James Brown from way way back. That would be the godfather of soul ......what they call him... So when I say soul I'm talking about so music and its Lake your singing from way down inside and from your emotions rather than just see in words and trying to sound good. So the reason I mention blue eyed soul is because basically this is white folk who scene music with soul and I say so a don't mean a religious thing of course I mean just deep inside emotions and given it the all they have. Rob Thomas is one of those people they considered blue eyed soul. And no this was long but I wanted to touch in on some things and kind of give you an idea of where Americans see things like this and vainly not even understand where he saying sometimes. He has an accent and he also plays with the way he pronounces words if you notice. He was stretch words out. And then of course the rest that you C is freakin immaculate production. You noticed a write-off with all those freakin horns and drums and then of course Carlos Santana on the guitar. This is a dope song in my opinion and obviously again you got a great living legend guitarist like Carlos Santana... That's a living legend you know. That right there is one of the best shows I've ever seen with all the instruments and all the drums and colors ... It all came together and this is the 1st time I've ever seen this. The thing I knew about these people Santana and Rob Thomas are things that I had to go watch documentaries or read about on Google because I'm still him up early twenties. I wasn't around necessarily or maybe I was a little baby when this came out. Anyway sorry it was so long 1st time a balanced on your channel and going to subscribe I'm gonna give it a Lake and the only reason this was so long everyone is because I know that she wanted to know the lyrics said she mention it more than once. She said she couldn't understand him and things like that so I will just telling you and everyone there's a lot of people that don't understand Rob Thomas sometimes the way he has is pronunciation. So don't feel Like you alone. You can find the lyrics With music on RUclips if you just would like to know where he was saying. Last thing is this album had 9 grammy wins from what I read a believe that's right. It's the most of all time in one night of the grammys awards or it might be a tie with Michael Jackson having the most M1 night at the Grammy Awards. Think about that 9 freaking grammy award wins in one night. This album supernatural should be on your playlist cause they got some dope songs. Yo again sorry so long and normaly just leave a couple sentences on RUclips sites but I'm really so you wanted to understand what he was saying so I thought I would toss out a little bit of why you didn't understand and how you can get the lyrics. Merry Christmas everyone
Santans playing always lifts my spirits.
In a similar way, Ruben Blades & Willie Colon.
Rob Thomas is the lead singer of Matchbox Twenty, a great pop rock band from the 90s, which I think is worth listening to.
Carlos Santana is all about the guitar. Few can match him.
The strap to hold up the guitar is a guitar strap. Santana’s guitar strap is the widest one I’ve ever seen.
The DVD this clip is from is excellent.
Carlos sings through his guitar.
His guitar STRAP and yes it is beautiful
I found the lyrics in French.. Smooth (French translation)
Artist: Santana
Suave
C'en est une chaude, mec,
Comme de se tenir à sept pouces du soleil de midi
Je t'entends murmurer, et tes mots font fondre tout le monde,
Mais tu restes si cool
Ma petite poupée, ma Mona Lisa de Spanish Harlem
Tu es la raison de ma raison,
Le pas de mon rythme
[Refrain I]
Et si tu disais que cette vie ne suffisait pas,
Je donnerais mon monde pour te soulever
Je changerais ma vie afin de mieux convenir à ton attitude,
Parce que tu es si suave
[Refrain II]
Et c'est comme l'océan sous la lune,
Enfin, c'est cette même émotion que je ressens avec toi
Tu as ce genre d'amour qui pourrait être si suave
Donne-moi ton cœur,
Fais-en une réalité,
Ou bien oublie tout ça
Et bien, je vais te dire une chose
Si tu partais, ce serait vraiment dommage
Dans chaque souffle et chaque parole,
J'entends ton nom qui m'appelle
Depuis le barrio,
Tu entends mon rythme à la radio
Tu sens le monde qui tourne, si tendrement et si lentement,
Te faisant tourner encore et encore
[Chorus I]
[Refrain II]
(x2)
Ou bien oublie tout ça...
[Répéter]
When Carlos tips his head back and closes his eyes, shit is gonna get real lol.
Carlos ... The Master!
It was the last #1 song of the 20th century and 1st #1 of the 21st century. 👍👍
Rob Thomas is the lead singer for match box 20, you need to check them out. They're great.
Santana the legend
Carlos' guitar skills are excellent, he and Hendrix opened up the door for what a guitar is capable of. She should check out Jimi and then see where it leads with guitarists like Satriani & Vai.
Carlos Santana is a guitarist. May I offer these suggestions: Jonny Lang "Lie to Me", Gary Moore "Still have the Blues", Gary Clarke, Jr. "CatFish Blues", Traveling Wilbury's "Handle with Care and End of the Line". Just to name a few impressive works of art. Enjoy!
Rob Thomas is in a band matchbox 20 as well as solo.
It did look like a scarf....but it's called a guitar strap. ;) I really thought it was beautiful.
Santana - Smooth
Artist: Santana
Featuring artist: Rob Thomas
Smooth
Man, it's a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whisper and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My muñequita, my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa,
You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove
[Chorus I]:
And if you said: "This life ain't good enough"
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
'Cause you're so smooth
[Chorus II]
And it's just like the ocean under the moon
Well that's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that can be so smooth
Give me your heart
Make it real
Or else forget about it
Well I'll tell you one thing
If you would leave it'd be a crying shame
In every breath and every word
I hear your name calling me out
Out from the barrio,
You hear my rhythm on your radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft and slow
Turning you 'round and 'round
[Chorus I]
[Chorus II]
2x
Or let's forget about it ..
[repeat]
You should check out Santana Evil Ways -Woodstock 1969, where it all started for Santana. By the way he sings.
Awesome music from the past🤣🤣marie. I'm thinking Matchbox20 Rob Thomas. Good reaction actually this music could go well in France.
He sings in Corazon Espinado
Santana used to practice playing in a dark room. That’s how he developed his playing and style so, no, he doesn’t look at his hands.
This one is almost better than the then the official video anyways!
was just about to comment and say exactly what Dave G said. he makes the guitar sing for him
Man, it's a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
Well, I hear you whisper and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My muñequita, my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa
You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove
And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Because you're so smooth
And it's just like the ocean under the moon
Oh, it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah

Hello beautiful how was your day hope it was as beautiful as you deserve, this is a great rhythm and if you listen to the lyrics they're very nice to I'm sorry it didn't seem as clear to you as it does to us . enjoyed your video God bless from Tennessee
Santana is the lead guitar in the black hat. He began making hits in the late 60's
I've seen videos in which Carlos does sing, but can't locate it right now.

Even though Rob Thomas wrote the lyrics and sings this was a hit through an exact combo of Rob Thomas and Carlos Santana. Obviously Santana was the one who wrote the original music if you Will. He came to Rob Thomas and asked him to write the lyrics but had no intention of ever getting him to sing because he said he wanted someone to sing this track Who was George Michael like . Thomas was not supposed to sing this. At that time he was burning the charts with songs he was Writing for other people that became hits. From everything that I've watched in documentaries my man Rob Thomas was the top song writer for about 3 or 4 Years so he was definitely in the zone which is exactly why Carlos asked him to write the lyrics more than likely. The way the story goes according to Carlos ..... This was an interview I saw....... So Thomas writes the lyrics in then he wants to Be the vocalist on this track. In other words come on Carlos just let me try and see what you think... I guess he thought it would be OK lol. I can't think of a someone else singing This track. I can't imagine someone else like George Michael B in the vocalist here only because Rob Thomas put his special little spin on the words if you notice. That's what she can't understand them as she says many times. Hes from South Carolina when he sings you can hear him stretching out words and to anyone that English is not the 1st language will probably have a little difficulty with this blue eyed soul of Rob Thomas. And then we got my man Carlos Santana on guitar. I only wish that Carlos would have had more than one riff and a little longer. Other than that this the 1st time I've ever seen this and man it was dope with the drums in the horns colors different colored . People and the list goes on... Sorry I'm just 22 years old and although I've heard this before I've never seen this video and something about this song pumps me up so guess I gotta lower hyper with the long Comment. Happy holidays everybody of every face for this is Christmas when I'm leaving this comment
Rob Thomas is the lead singer of match box 20, you should check them out. They are great..
Carlos Santana needs more praise for his Latin influence on Rock music. He is so wonderful as a guitar player & made me realize that Latin sounds can be included in rock and roll.
If you want some more Latin beats try Miami Sound Machine with Gloria Estefan doing "Conga"
Agreed, this video is fun too!
