    This band was huge and the lead singer and the band were all millionaires but with fame the singer Charles Negron became a huge heroin addict and lost everything and became homeless but he managed to beat his demons and got clean after years of addiction and has now been clean and sober for decades and doing great now

    One of the most underrated bands in history. 18 Top 40 Hits.

      @@lauriekittle9459 I saw them when I was 12 years old in 1972 at the height of their popularity and a string of successful records. They are underrated because musical history has forgotten them for the most part. Far more successful that most in that period, but forgotten by history.

      Three Dog Night could also rock the house. Their live albums Captured Live at The Forum and Around the World with Three Dog Night demonstrates how amazing and powerful these three singers were together. I love the introduction of the Captured.... Live album. The man says "and now, one of the heaviest bands in the land, THREE DOG NIGHT."

    I certainly wish I could have seen this 3 months ago live ,but this is the first I've seen your show! May I tell you what the term Three dog night means? Well in Alaska on a cold night in an igloo,..you bring in one dog. A colder night requires 2 dogs inside your igloo
    But a 3 dog night is by far the coldest of all the cold night's, so you bring into you're igloo three dogs. their body heat will save your life. So that's it! that song used to bring me to tears when I was 5 years old will be 60 soon this brings back memories was the good old days. Thank you so much, Louisville Kentucky Maria Brown

    As others have mentioned, This song was written and originally recorded by Harry Nillson, the Beatles' favorite American singer. He has a couple of songs that would be great to react too. One is "Without You" which really shows his incredible voice and another is "You're Breaking My Heart", a rocking breakup song (be forewarned, it does contain a NSFW phrase).

    Hey, Van! Three Dog Night got bars! NOBODY has a stage show like Freddie Mercury! This "one" is about a relationship gone bad, broke, & he wants it the way it used to be - hence the line, "2 can be as bad as 1...". OK, rinse & repeat - "Joy To The World, Joy To The World, Joy To The World", PLEASE!!! You also may want to react to "Never Been To Spain", smooth as silk, & "Black & White", a social statement. Thanks for rockin' 1 of the biggest pop bands ever!
