The musicians referenced are (Count) Basie, (Glenn) Miller, Satchmo (Louis Armstrong), Duke (Ellington), and Ella (Fitzgerald). Powerhouses of the Big Band era.
That is a hell of a list of names.
I missed Miller
Great music.
“Swing the Mood” by Jive Bunny and the Master Mixers is a medley of early rock and roll classics featuring Glenn Millers “In the Mood”
@@stephentaylor6617 I have never heard that song. Being that I am a huge Glen Miller fan. I need to give it a listen. Thanks for posting
it never fails -- in every video it is guaranteed that Lex will recognize the chorus and start singing along and Brad will look at her like she's crazy
I love it when that happens! 😆
Well Brad knows her best.😁
so true :)
Brad is starting to get used to the craziness
Such a sweetheart ❤️
Brad is the only person who cannot feel it all over
LMAO
Brad&Lex, you'll love his"Don't You Worry About A Thing", "My Cherie Amour", "Living For The City" and about 30 more!! He is the GOAT's GOAT. If you do "Living For The City" it must be the full album version, never live. Very important part is omitted live.
I've always had a soft spot for "I was made to love her". I guess it still has that old Motown feel before he matured.
Pastime Paradise
Agreed. Many to choose from, and I include "Boogie on Reggae Woman" in that list!
@@UMfan21 That's my favorite one from Stevie also.
@@mkmstillstackin Yes definitely.
From 1972-76 Stevie was in a fucking zone that most musicians can only dream of. Everything he produced was gold. An incredible output of greatness in such a short time.
Lex had a good upbringing, she knows all the songs, props to Lex's parents.
This is truly Lex's song...you can feel it all over...
This one of the most relentlessly positive songs I know. Love it!
Higher Ground and Living for the City are my favorites. He was truly a musical genius; I’m not sure but I think, taking into account different genres, knowledgeable critics would class him with Bach or Beethoven.
Higher Ground is one of those rare tunes with enough joy and hope to move me to tears. I love it to bits. I don't know why it's not played more.
Oh and I've just remembered the RHCP cover is an absolute beast!
I love Stevie Wonder like an annoying wasp loves picnics, and I'd class Innervisions as the pinnacle. Dare I even suggest it, Songs In The Key Of Life has some filler on it. Innervisions is a perfect album. Sublime!
I remember seeing him when he was around 11 singing and playing his harmonica
❤
This song hit number one on the charts in 1977. It was during this period that Stevie Wonder was sweeping just about every Grammy Award for which he was nominated, year after year after year after year. Finally, after he'd won seemingly every Grammy Award there was to win for like four or five years in a row, he finally didn't release an album one year, and whoever it was that won the award got up at the podium to accept their award for Best Album and said, "I want to thank Stevie Wonder for not releasing an album this year." It was hilarious. He was about as hot as an artist can get in the music business for about five years in the '70s.
Paul Simon
This is one of a handful of songs that take me right back the public swimming pool when I was a kid in the late 70's early 80's! So fun- love it.
YES! Exactly! And that bass player is ridiculous! Nathan Watts...so great.
Great album. "Songs In The Key Of Life" (He's singing about Duke Ellington) The instrumental part is amazing - that old style jazz.
One of the best bass lines ever recorded. Plus, as usual, Stevie has perfect pitch. 🥰
Stevie Wonder's music is irresistible! (Sir Duke, Superstition,) and "You Are the Sunshine Of My Life" "Master Blaster" "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" "I Just Called To Say I Love You" "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing" "Ebony And Ivory"(with Paul McCartney) "Livin For the City" "Do I Do" "Golden Lady" "Boogie On Reggae Woman" "For Once In My Life" "Did I Hear You Say You Love Me?" "Ribbon In the Sky" "Part Time Lover" "My Cherie Amour" "Higher Ground" "In My Brain" "That Girl" "Send One Your Love" "Land Of La La" "Overjoyed" "As If You Read My Mind" "Isn't She Lovely?" "Front Line" "Happy Birthday" (lots more)
Music. Food. Art. Community. These are the things that we should exult as a species.
Perhaps you guys should do a full Album review of "Songs in the Key of Life".....one of the best Albums ever!!!
I was 12 when this song came out in 1977. I can vividly remember listening to CKLW-Am Detroit/Windsor on my little 7UP can transistor radio in my grandmother's back yard. It was summer, she, my 7 year old sister and I were picking plums off the tree near the back fence while her white German shepherd dog ran around us. Those were great days. It's so cool that a song can take us back in time so easily.
I was a kid when this came out and I immediately loved it and became a Stevie Wonder fan. This song is just plain old fun.👍🎧
Song's in the Key of Life is a must to listen to. Stevie Wonder is a true musical magician. He can make you take a trip without leaving the house.
Sir Duke was Duke Ellington..
"Composer, pianist, and leader of his eponymous jazz orchestra from 1923 through the rest of his life."
Sir Duke = Duke Ellington
Satchmo = Louis Armstrong
Ella = Ella Fitzgerald
Count Basie is mentioned. Also Glenn Miller.
Stevie Wonder's greatest song.
My all-time favorite song is Sir Duke by Stevie Wonder. From the lyrics, vocals and every note!
"Signed, Sealed, Delivered" or "Superstition."
This is the one song that will absolutely, positively put a smile on my face EVERY single time I hear it no matter what is going on! It takes me to my happy place. 😊 Those horns are therapeutic. So glad they finally got to this one and that Lex enjoyed it so much!
For a taste of what the song is about, check out Duke Ellington "Take the A Train", Count Basie "Jumpin' At The Woodside", Glenn Miller "In The Mood", Louis Armstrong "When the Saints Go Marching In", and Ella Fitzgerald & Chick Webb "St. Louis Blues", along with so many other greats!
Love Stevie Wonder. He has delivered so many great songs and if I can wish for a favorit to make a reaction video on I chose "I wish".
The best!
living in my apartment in queens in the late 70s I was a toddler...my parents played all the cool albums and those are my earliest memories...this song and album were on alot..such nostalgia.
Love the horn section. I bought my first two albums in 76. Frampton Comes Alive and this one, Songs in The Key of Life because it had Sir Duke. The whole album is good.
Songs in the Key of Life is one of the best albums ever made. Such a timeless masterpiece
DUKE ELLINGTON!
Black music in the 60's and 70's was stellar to begin with and for this era there was no better than Stevie Wonder, his great music came in volume and in quality.
2 trumpets, a trombone, a tenor sax, a bari sax, an alto sax, a bass guitar, an electric guitar, drums and keys. I believe Stevie played most if not all of the instruments on the whole album recording.
Songs in the Key of Life. Stevie is a national treasure.
This was 1977. We used to play this when it was new, me on keys, a horn band. Stevie went to school at the Michigan School for the Blind in Lansing MI, my hometown, with my cousin. didn't realize at the time, I was just a little kid.
This was Stevie's tribute to the greats of the big band era, listing Basey, Miller, Sachemo and the king of all Sir Duke (Ellington). Then he praises Ella in the next line (Ella Fitzgerald). This album was just great -- every track was just perfect -- and so many different genres. Stevie IS a musical genius.
Hard for me to think of a world without Stevie Wonder music. Lex, my brother, you need to dive into his musical history. It will make you feel more live. Love you guys!
I love watching Lex getting in the groove to the music and Brad giving her the sideways glance like "ummm...are you ok?" LOL.
I worked at a store and a live performance of this song was used as a demo for a speaker system and one of my coworkers used to sing “Bacon feeling all over!” Instead of “they can feel it all over” and I think of that every time I hear this song.
Songs in the key of life was a masterpiece no matter what genre of music you listen to one of the greatest albums ever made.
I remember hearing this song as a kid very young. It was being played by the guys who worked at the gas station that was behind my house.
I also remember hearing Rubberband Man among many others.
I have two daughters. One named Joni for Joni Mitchell. The other named Stephanie for Stevie Wonder. Two of the greatest songwriters/singers ever.
The look on Brads face when your screaming and rocking out Lex. Lol
Brad and Lex, if you're really serious about listening to and experiencing popular music throughout the years, this song is naming names you want to be familiar with. After all, these are the artists and musicians that influenced the performers of early rock and today. And there are sooo many more. Every decade has it's hitmakers and influencers. Take note, look them up, enlighten yourselves and you'll enjoy the music much much more. Too often I hear from you both "I don't know" and it's NOT coming from your outro. I appreciate your reactions and think it's great that you're checking out old music, but you're just scratching the surface. There's so much more to know, understand and experience. Good luck and may God bless.
There was a Sitcom called "What's happening' that used this song a few times. There was a Heavy set Character called "Rerun" ( Fred Berry {RIP}) that Danced to it!
It was a GREAT Sitcom! "hey HEY hey!".
One of the best songs ever
"Sir Duke" refers to jazz musician and big band leader Duke Ellington. The song is a tribute to some of Stevie Wonder's jazz musician heroes.
"For there's Basie, Miller, Satchmo
And the king of all, Sir Duke
And with a voice like Ella's ringing out
There's no way the band could lose "
That would be Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Satchmo is Louis Armstrong's nickname, Sir Duke is Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald.
I remember when my niece was a little kid she would love to sing this song .. so full of joy .. she moved away and for a long time I couldn’t hear this song .. it make me choke up and tear up .. it’s kind of weird to cry to such a beautiful happy song .. 💔❤️
This song is off on of the greatest albums of all time. Songs in the Key of Life.
Stevie is fantastic. Boogie on Reggae Woman, I Wish, You Haven't Done Nothin, Higher Ground, and so many more but the above I mentioned are truly outstanding🎶🎼🎵
I love the instant when she recognizes the song and goes crazy.
Here are the amazing musicians on this production:

I don't just feel it all over, I hear this sing all over too. Classic. Thanks, cats.
When the “oh,oh, oh” comes, hahaha!! Wakes me up to life every time! Thank you for the smile,,
this was one of those songs that i had heard a million times when i was young but never knew the name of it. It was like that a lot before the internet age.
What is relating to is that we all can love music from many genres and time periods.
Summer of 77 I'd here this everywhere I went. Something so magical about the 70s feel.
This is part of Stevie's golden era and the work shows just what a genius he really is. I just have to forgive him for writing "I Just Called To Say I Love You" and some other stinkers later on (yes, that's a nod to the movie High Fidelity, but it is SO true).
One of the best songs ever. Period.
Stevie Wonder brings back some good memories of traveling with my dad
well, it's about time, this is what we in the deep south call Mardi Gras music. i have always LOVED this song. glad to see Lex shout out in joy!
... pssst ... Glenn Miller's “In the Mood” would be a perfect followup. It's a BIG part of what brought us to Rock 'n' Roll
I'm just amazed how they never seem intrigued enough to find out what a reference, a phrase or word, or in this case names mean in a song.
Especially when it's so easy to find out!
It reminds me of asking a younger worker at a store, where something is located, and they shrug their shoulders and say "I don't know" as they don't miss a step as they walk by me.
It doesn't even occur to them to go find out or ask someone else to show them.
@gigi v I've seen many other reactors stop and Google something. One even called his grandma!
I'm sure it has something to do with that the channel benefits from having a lot of comments.
The fact that they guess a song's meaning (which is usually wrong) and then ask for comments doesn't make sense to me.
It would be funny to see their reaction to their interpretation vs the actual meaning.
To me it just seems disingenuous.
and "You Haven't Done Nothin'"(irresistibly funky!)
I wish music like this was still made. Sad it's not. This is REAL music.
Oh how I love Stevie!! Thanks for really feeling this. Thanks to your couchgang for shedding light on the references!
Being a native New Orleanian I can tell you it is all about the food, the music, traditions, and just having a great time. There are some incredible street performers that are just beautiful musicians. You can find them online and they will blow your mind.
This is my favorite Stevie Wonder song and that's saying something because he has so many great ones
Lex, I enjoy watching your joy as you listen to this. This song is pure joy.
One of my favourite Stevie songs. Undeniable beat!
Time for Sly and the Family Stone??? YES please!!!
Stevie Wonder’s homage to the jazz giants of the Big Band era and swing era.
Stevie Wonder is so under appreciated.
From the album 'Songs in the Key of Life"--one of finest albums of music ever
I love when artists write songs for other artists that came before them, the shoulders they stand on. Duke, Ella, Louis, Count, Glenn their music is from the 1920s and 1930s.
Sir Duke was not just a popular musician, but an icon...a legend! Actual name he went by was Duke Ellington, during the Big Band era of the 30s and 40s. That also goes for all the other legends he named in the song.
Brad “ok what is going on over here?” 🤣 Lex is a Star 🌟
I played trumpet in middle and high school band. This was my favorite song that we played.
'I was made to love her' is my favorite Stevie song. Its kind of short but amazing. Worth checking out!
Every little girl's favorite song for quite a loooong time !
Songs In The Key Of Life, is a brilliant album, and is still one of my favorites.
If Lex loves "that big band sound," y'all gotta get into The Brian Setzer Orchestra. I'd push the Easy button and start with Jump Jive and Wail, then proceed directly to Switchblade 327. You'll love it.
Key in the songs of life is easily one of the greatest albums of all time
This was my favorite song at one point in my childhood.
#1 hit in 1977. I was 5, and I remember when it hit #1. Good stuff! 🙂👍
It's funny you say it makes you want to go to NOLA. I am from the area and this is (or was) played A LOT at Mardi Gras from trucks or from walking clubs that may use a car or other stereo to play their music.
Gives me goosebumps every time, in the best possible way. 😊
I was itty bitty when this song was (2 almost 3) but I remember hearing it a lot on the radio and dancing to it in my car seat.
It took me a week to learn this on the fuckin bass…SUCH A LOVELY GROOVE
One of the best songs of all time off one of the best albums of all time an this was a little before my time too but it’s fact
Lex, your enthusiasm is infectious. Keep the good vibes coming you guys!
Come on Brad. EVERY SINGLE BRIT knows this tune HOW CAN YOU NOT?
I used to request this every time I was at Funkademia in Manchester, UK. Always got everyone moving.
that vibe just spreads happy
More Stevie please! He has countless amazing songs and one of the most influential artists of all time especially for current music. A lot of his albums have him playing all the instruments. Bird of Beauty is my favorite song at the moment. Lex never stop being you 😂❤️
Yes, one of my fav Stevie Wonder songs !!!
Stevie is an American music icon
So much fun - especially Lex! Thank you! I truly cannot think of any SW song that I don't like... this is right behind "I Wish" in my favorites...
One of the lines was "The king of them all, Sir Duke..."
Duke Ellington
Signed sealed and delivered and isn’t she lovely are amazing Stevie wonder songs to check out.
One of his truly great songs. But does it make you want to delve into the musics of the 20s, 30s and 40s? Some of my personal faves include Ellington/Strayhorn, Teddy Wilson/Billie Holiday, the Gershwins, Albert Ammons, Benny Goodman et al. Tons of great music that preceded the 50s and informed them.
You all make me smile and are the perfect couple. Love your reactions.
I remember listening to him when he was 13 year old Little Stevie Wonder. There are talented people and then there are geniuses. This song is a tribute from one genius (Stevie Wonder) to another genius (Duke Ellington.) Songs In the Key of Life was an exceptional album.
