It appears that it was actually Carol Kenyon singing. Brie Howard-Darling, although she is a singer and drummer, only appeared in the video, not on the actual track.
And before that people used to say Que Sera Sera, from the very popular Doris Day song. The meaning is very similar - Such is life, what will be will be.
Great album front to back. No filler. Aside from the hits, I loved "Just a Little Closer" and the ballad "Back to You" which was actually a song about faith and turning back to God.
A few years ago I gave away all my old cassettes but I made a list of them before I let them go. Last year I looked back at my list to see if there were any that I missed enough to buy on CD. This was one I bought. (The other was the Split Enz).

I think you will like Scritti Politti " Perfect Way" , Dino "I like it", Jon Secada "Just another day" , Cherelle "Affair" "Saturday love" and "you look good to me" And Jets and 5 Starr were big around this time too.
the female singer was Brie Howard , she is also a very skilled drummer and performed a host of artists in the 80's if you look again you will see she is playing the drums in the video
"Hey, Jay Jay, what you been doin? You say your car broke down. The thing just isn't moving 🎶" is such a memorable line from this banger that's been stuck in my head all these years. Thanks guys for taking me back!
My Prerogative by Bobby Brown was massive hit around the same time. Somewhere Down the Crazy River by another Robbie this time Robbie Robertson was massive as well. Hello Mamma ❤
UH a song that NEVER charted on Billboard Top 100 is NOT A MASSIVE HIT. Just because you like it, doesn't make it massive. It was only played on mainstream radio. Same with Robertson, kill their channel why don't you.
When this song came out, there really wasn't anything else like it on the airwaves, especially the slowed-down funk groove that was still danceable but not frenetic or over the top. I had the 12" single, really liked it a lot - glad yall did too! You guys validate so much of my musical taste lol!
I get your point but R&B radio in the 80’s had a lot of songs in the tempo of “C’est La Vie”. What’s even better is that Robbie’s song was also played on Urban Contemporary. Def blue-eyed soul. 👏🏾
I LOVE both your reactions to this song! Not just what you say, but watching you two listen to it is exactly how I feel when I hear it. I love listening to it when I'm driving -- no one or nothing can bring me down! C'est la vie! That's life! You two are my FAVORITE people reacting to music -- such great variety in song selection, and I can see you love what you're doing. Thanks for making me smile.
My favorite "C'est La Vie" song was by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer which has a rich French melody and a beautiful voice by Greg Lake, it makes you feel like you're in Paris listening to one of those french organs they play on the streets.
Greg Lake (ELP)…What a legend!!! I’ll soon be 67 and Greg’s voice and talents are beyond compare. Another of his mega hits is “Father Christmas”. My fav is the live with Ian Anderson.
@@terrydelano9998 and don't forget the great Keith Emerson (who sadly passed away a few months before Lake), I absolutely love prog rock and ELP is definitely up there in my favorite prog rock bands!
Have not heard this in years, blast from the past for sure, great work as always, it is always refreshing seeing your reactions to absolute tunes I grew up with. Music never grows old, it just keeps finding new audiences.
Great story about this artist. I danced on a TV show in Tampa back in the late 80s early 90s (like Soul Train/American Bandstand) and instead of paying us with money, we got music cassettes. This was the first one I got and I just love this song!
"Wots it to ya" and "Dominoes" are both good by Robbie. C'est la vie reached #2 in January of 1987. Would love to see a reaction of Chicago "Stay the night" whenever you can.
@@HerschelWalker4President Absolutley. I do like some of their 80 hits of course "Stay the night" and "Along comes a woman" especially. Do still love their 70s hits a bit more overall. Yeah, surprised "C'est la vie" charted that high on the year end. Guess if I charted a month or two earlier, it may been a lot lower due to the year end chart cutoff.
@@joetoth2564 robbies song spent a lot of weeks on the chart putting him ahead of several #1 hits. 70s Chicago is better than 80s , just think Stay The Night gets buried behind Inspiration, Hard Habit, and others.
@@craigparker9744 Yep! It was my first job as a singer. We did a show called Fascinatin’ Rhythm at the inside theater. I think it’s just called the Kings Dominion Theater now. It was called the Mason Dixon Theater in 1987.
He had five hits "C"est La Vie", "Dominoes", "Wots it to Ya", "Back on Holiday" and "Just Like You" but stopped recording as a solo artist after his third album (to my knowledge) Even though I don't know any of his current work, he did write songs for several Disney Channel shows and movies. But there are some real bangers on his solo albums (not just the hits) and he is definitely worth a deeper dive. Very talented.
I LOVE the 80s... flashback! And I LOVE... LOVE... LOVE this song! C'est La Vie #RobbieNevil Another 80s favorite... The System, "Don't Disturb this Groove"
My jam! 😃 This song was on pop and R&B stations in my area. Amber, you're on the right track...C'est La Vie means "That's life" (as Robbie says) or "Such is life", as in stuff happens, but life goe on, like JJ's car being broken down, and he lets her know not to let it get her down. Hello to your mom, from Alabama! 👋🏽
When I saw the title of your video I was expecting the Cajun-flavored song by Chuck Berry, "C’est La Vie (You Never Can Tell)." It is also a great song & I think you might enjoy reacting to it. I especially like the live performance by the wonderful Emmylou Harris at the Old Whistle Test concert in London. It is really my favorite.
A highly underrated and appreciated artist from the 80's. Sort of a one-hit wonder even though he had another song, called "Wot's It To Ya" & ""Dominos", which are also good. But this put him on the map. He is a great writer and has since been known for writing music for shows and other artists.
Both his self-titled, and his "A Place Like This" albums are both underrated. Some really great and catchy tunes. I wore those tapes out in the mid-late '80s. Thanks for the reaction! So glad y'all discovered Robbie Nevil! Some specific songs you might like: Back On Holiday, Dominoes, Wot's It To Ya?, and for something more mellow, Back To You.
I was a student in Florence Italy when this song was out, along with George Michael and Aretha Franklin's hit I knew You Were /waiting and Jody Watley's Looking for a New Love were all on European MTV in rotation along with MJ and Prince. When I'd come home from classes, Id watch an (Dubbed into Italian)episode of Batman or Rocky and Bullwinkle(Which actually helped me learn Italian a lot faster) and then I'd watch some MTV and dance like no one was watching, cause they weren't! Ahhhh Good Times!
You both outdid yourselves this night. Jermaine Stewart? Huge hit back in 1986. The Specials? Only heard that song for the first time about 7 years ago and I like it! Robbie Nevil's song went to #2 on the Billboard charts in 1987. Two more top 20 hits followed, "Wot's It To Ya", meh. And "Dominoes", not bad.
Now we're getting into my childhood, lol! I don't know how, especially since it's been YEARS since I've heard it, but I still remember the words to this song. 😄 It's a fun one.
C'est La Vie is french for "Thats life"! SLAPPING song AND reaction!!!!! Love watching you guys!! Be on alert for "CANADIAN" content e-mail! Always making"em smile!!!!! Regards, RSK
It came out 1986, I was 25 in that year. I have the whole album in vinyl. It was a great hit in my country, the second single of this album is Dominoes.
Great song, great reaction J&A! There's another completely different song also called C'est La Vie (2016) by Canadian R&B artist Bobby Bazini. Great song also!
This song was released in 1986. I heard it a few times but I had never seen the video on MTV. I had no idea what he looked like or how hey would make a video around it. Great reaction. Take care.....
around my house C'est La vie ( That's Life ) and Que Sara Sara ( whatever will be, will be) were the 2 big mama sayings.. the young lady singing back up is Brie Howard-Darling... Fun fact .. Robbie was not sure he wanted this song on his first album, the reason it made it.. his Grandmother after listening to it said.. This is the one you should do .....
This was a fun song. "C'est La Vie" by Emerson Lake & Palmer is another you should hear. I know you two would really enjoy it; beautiful orchestral arrangement and ofc Lake's great vocals.
When I first heard this song, I was rockin with it. Then I heard his name, I thought he would be part of the legendary Neville Brothers family, then I saw the video...SHOCKER!!! It was cool though, I came up in the "blue eye" soul era...i.e. Righteous Brothers. I haven't heard anything else by him.
I don't care what anyone says the 80's were and always will be the best decade of music 🎶🎶🎶🎶
Robbie Nevil wrote the majority of the songs on high school musical, Hannah Montana and other various Disney shows during the late 90's and 2000's
That is impressive!
Facts
Never knew that. Thank you for sharing. ✨️💛
Learned a lot of info on ROBBIE I didn't know.
Did not know this. Wow!
This song came out in 1986 . Great song , great reaction ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️!
HOLY MOLY, this guys music is sooooooo underrated. Love all the songs he has put out
The female background singer in this song was Carol Kenyon. She also did background vocals on hits for a couple other bands in the middle 80s.
actually it was brie howard
It was Brie Howard- Darling. She was about 36 in this video singing
It appears that it was actually Carol Kenyon singing. Brie Howard-Darling, although she is a singer and drummer, only appeared in the video, not on the actual track.
Great voice.
@@melhall17I've had a dig and, judging from relevant pictures on Discogs and Brie's website, I reckon you're right.
I was in middle school when this song came out and I loved it. I'm glad to see youngsters like yourselves appreciating the classics.
I was obsessed with this song when I was a kid.
I remember saying that phrase C’est La Vie many times when I was younger. Actually people used to say it quite a bit back in the day. GREAT song too!!
And before that people used to say Que Sera Sera, from the very popular Doris Day song. The meaning is very similar - Such is life, what will be will be.
Yes, way before this song.
I like Robbie Nevil. I always thought of him as a slightly more R&B version of Kenny Loggins. 🔥
Omgosh that totally makes sense!!! Nice!
Yup...😊💛
Great description!
They both fit the blue-eyed soul mold. Listen to Kenny’s “Love Will Follow”; he sounds 100% R&B.
@@gabrielmcdonnell8699 True. But unlike Robbie Nevil, Kenny Loggins began as a Rock artist who diversitied into Adult Contemporary and Blue-eyed Soul.
1986! My senior year in high school. Holy cow, the memories. Thank you!
I played this cassette till it broke. Then I went out and bought the CD. The whole album is awesome.
Same! Same! Same! I've listened to Wot's It To Ya a billion times and loved the deep track Neighbors so much.
@@wendyjenae I think Neighbors is my favorite track on the album.
Great album front to back. No filler. Aside from the hits, I loved "Just a Little Closer" and the ballad "Back to You" which was actually a song about faith and turning back to God.
A few years ago I gave away all my old cassettes but I made a list of them before I let them go. Last year I looked back at my list to see if there were any that I missed enough to buy on CD. This was one I bought. (The other was the Split Enz).
This song brings back the memories of the smell of a fresh Maxell cassette tape. That is where I had a recording of this sone. Amazing!

Amber would love the Jets
Glad you mentioned Dino. Most people seem to not know about him.
Perfect Way is a perfect pop song. One of my favorites.
Yes!!! I thought you would never get into Robbie. I loved his music from back in the day. Thank you guys.
I am so glad you guys are finally playing Robbie Nevil.
I love this song. Classic 80s R & B. So many memories.
1987 37 yrs. Ago now watching march 22, 2024
the female singer was Brie Howard , she is also a very skilled drummer and performed a host of artists in the 80's if you look again you will see she is playing the drums in the video
And her daughter is Playboy Playmate Brandi Brandt, Nikki Sixx's ex-wife.
"Hey, Jay Jay, what you been doin? You say your car broke down. The thing just isn't moving 🎶" is such a memorable line from this banger that's been stuck in my head all these years. Thanks guys for taking me back!

Robbie Robertson!

“My Prerogative” and “Somewhere Down The Crazy River” both charted and I remember hearing them and seeing their videos a lot when they each came out.
Those 2 songs and music videos are great. I’ve been thinking of recommending “Somewhere down the crazy river.”
When this song came out, there really wasn't anything else like it on the airwaves, especially the slowed-down funk groove that was still danceable but not frenetic or over the top. I had the 12" single, really liked it a lot - glad yall did too! You guys validate so much of my musical taste lol!

back when MTV played videos and we watched or listened all day and night.
Tres bien!
C’est la vie is French for “that's life”
Hi momma!
Always liked this tune.
From 1986 - The group is World Party and the song is Ship Of Fools
My favorite "C'est La Vie" song was by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer which has a rich French melody and a beautiful voice by Greg Lake, it makes you feel like you're in Paris listening to one of those french organs they play on the streets.
At first I thought that's what this was going to be, and I was so excited. ELP's C'est La Vie is so beautiful. Hope they'll react to it sometime.
@@lindawulfkoenig4907I thought exactly the same, I was happy to see the title "c'est la vie" but then I realized it's not ELP song.
Greg Lake (ELP)…What a legend!!! I’ll soon be 67 and Greg’s voice and talents are beyond compare. Another of his mega hits is “Father Christmas”. My fav is the live with Ian Anderson.

Man I have not heard this for a long time! I just know you are going to love it!
"Oh Yeah!" Another personal favorite and one I had to have on vinyl, Loved this song since it first came out and spin it to this very day!
I forgot about this song. One of the reasons I love following you. It brings back songs I haven't heard in 30 years. Thanks 💚
SUCH a great song! I would hit repeat, frequently, when that one came on! ❤
Underrated imo! He's amazing. Such a good tune
Have not heard this in years, blast from the past for sure, great work as always, it is always refreshing seeing your reactions to absolute tunes I grew up with. Music never grows old, it just keeps finding new audiences.
Yay for Robbie! I also was a fan of his second hit, "Wots it to Ya"...these are from around 1987...cuz i was in my freshman year of college.

Another 80s favorite... The System,
"Don't Disturb this Groove"
Love this song, only ever heard the song on the radio, never saw the video so was nice to put a face to the voice 😺
Y'all bopping out!!! This was my jam back in the day. This was the only song I ever heard from him. A very funky song and hi, Amber's mom!!
I forgot about this gem. Putting it on a playlist. 💛
Great song 🙌🙌🙌
My jam! 😃
This song was on pop and R&B stations in my area.
Amber, you're on the right track...C'est La Vie means "That's life" (as Robbie says) or "Such is life", as in stuff happens, but life goe on, like JJ's car being broken down, and he lets her know not to let it get her down.

I've always loved this song. ❤
that's just the way life goes. THAT'S RIGHT !! Love this song.
Thanks for giving me a Smile. !!
Dang, I’d forgotten all about this song. I love this channel because I get reminded of these bangers every once in a while
Wot’s It To Ya is another great Robbie Nevil song.
Your understanding of C'est La Vie is right on point Amber
This Song Takes Me Back To My Childhood, Great Memories 😊

This song makes you want to dance. I heard this in Target and wanted to dance, but didn't because I didn't want to be stared at, lol.
A serious banger! Love this. So eighties!
A great song from the same year 1987 , was World Party and their hit Ship of Fools .
Love this song I sing with Robby Nevil. CE la vie for top pop Holland I am the woman singer from Holland. With red curls
Both his self-titled, and his "A Place Like This" albums are both underrated. Some really great and catchy tunes. I wore those tapes out in the mid-late '80s. Thanks for the reaction! So glad y'all discovered Robbie Nevil! Some specific songs you might like: Back On Holiday, Dominoes, Wot's It To Ya?, and for something more mellow, Back To You.
his 1st & 2nd albums - well crafted memorable tunes amazing
I was a student in Florence Italy when this song was out, along with George Michael and Aretha Franklin's hit I knew You Were /waiting and Jody Watley's Looking for a New Love were all on European MTV in rotation along with MJ and Prince. When I'd come home from classes, Id watch an (Dubbed into Italian)episode of Batman or Rocky and Bullwinkle(Which actually helped me learn Italian a lot faster) and then I'd watch some MTV and dance like no one was watching, cause they weren't! Ahhhh Good Times!
Somehow I missed this in the 80s. I love it. This is my “new” favorite!
Lots of memories from this time period..was a fave since first hearing it.Back when i enjoyed what was on top 40 radio.
This song got a ton of airplay on the radio and MTV back then. It grew on my fast. His other hit from this album was really good too.
It sure did. I even ran across an radio aircheck from the 80s on RUclips that had the song on it.
This is in constant rotation on my playlist to this day! I know that your mother remembers this song from back in the day, Amber, not just the saying!
Sooooo glad you guys are reacting to Robbie! One of my favs as a kid. Please explore more. Next.. Wats it to ya
Oh the memories... Mallorca Summer 1987 and this playing everywhere.
This jam came out during my first semester in college (Fall 1986). I really enjoyed it!
I remember the song I do but must have been a one hair wonder
😅😅😅
@@allendixon7700 Robbie Nevil had another song called 'Dominoes' that came out in Spring 1987. It was okay.

Now we're getting into my childhood, lol! I don't know how, especially since it's been YEARS since I've heard it, but I still remember the words to this song. 😄 It's a fun one.
Nothing beats 80's music...
This one of my top ten upbeat 80's songs. It is impossible to be/stay in a bad mood when this song comes on! Nice pick.
so many catchy songs in 80s!
Hi my girl Amber's Mom. This song came out when I was hitting the clubs in the 80's when I hit my 20's. Always a get up and dance song.

It came out 1986, I was 25 in that year. I have the whole album in vinyl. It was a great hit in my country, the second single of this album is Dominoes.
The scene in PULP FICTION when John Travolta and Uma Thurman dance to Bob Seger’s C’EST LA VIE is iconic! (It is an entirely different song.)

Ooh Robbie Nevil. Love it!! The modern version of "C'est la vie" would be "it is what it is". Another song suggestion would be "Wot's it to ya".
This song was released in 1986. I heard it a few times but I had never seen the video on MTV. I had no idea what he looked like or how hey would make a video around it. Great reaction. Take care.....

When I first heard this song, I was rockin with it. Then I heard his name, I thought he would be part of the legendary Neville Brothers family, then I saw the video...SHOCKER!!! It was cool though, I came up in the "blue eye" soul era...i.e. Righteous Brothers. I haven't heard anything else by him.
