@CSM100MK2 Will you find a song that sounds like The Midnight on the top 40s hits? Probably not, but pop in any random VHS tape, especially a sci-fi adventure or about teenagers, and there this sound is in soundtrack. This dreamy synthwave sound was UBIQUITOUS in movies and television shows. What The Midnight is doing is center-staging a sound that, if it were an actor, it was the one that never got its big break as the star but it was in supporting cast or background of everything. As an actual 80s kid, their sound hits very true to me.
💗I wanna live in a never-ending 80s synth-wave Miami where the beach, the buildings, the roads, the palm trees are lit by neon light under an eternal setting neon sun. It’s always midnight and the sound of arcade machines are filling the air.💗
You kept the magic of the original and framed her iconic voice while adding your own distinctive sound. Best remix I have heard. Massive fan of The Midnight.
Love this. I was a DJ in the eighties and this song was requested all the time. I've become a big The Midnight fan in the last few years and this is such a fantastic mix of the two. As we said back then, this is "totally awesome."
@@WhittakerEntertainment Came across this one again while browsing my history. Thank you for the wonderful mix. Still love it! RIP Whitney. Thank you for all the memories
"Sunset" is my fav song of The Midnight and Whitney is my fav female singer of all time. I keep coming back for her voice and that synth guitar solo and snares!
Never in a million years would I have considered putting these two together...but you did it, and it's magical. Combining the artists of the past and present to create a blissful future, what could be more Synthwave than that? Cheers to you, bro.
I have been listening to this almost daily for a year and have had it saved in my music playlist and it's still one of the best mashups I've EVER heard in my life.
It's like seeing a family of several generations together in 1 photo :) And everyone's happy. So am I :) Wish you all lots of Love and lots of dancing in the Sunset! See you later in the 80's, my dear people!
The marriage of these two songs is outstanding work by you, I really reeeeeallly dig it because I'm a huge fan of the original two songs. With these combined, you really showcase your talent and highlight the brilliance of Whitney and The Midnight. It's like the fusion of the classic and the modern tribute to an era.
This is absolutely brilliant! I am intimately familiar with The Midnight song that this is based on since I absolutely love his work. So when the song started I was waiting for the opening vocals of the original song but then when Whitney Houston started singing I realized, man, this is going to be great, and it was.
Just discovered this mashup. It’s like these two songs were made for each other. And just when I thought I was full of ecstasy, you made that key change happen and I screamed in my car and my jaw dropped for 30 seconds straight
If you going to mess with two great songs for a mashup it must this good!!!!!.....welcome mate!!! Weldone....the blend just works, Whitney and The Midnight will be very proud of you!!!!
8 Years later, Whitney Houston, the World Certainly feels vastly empty without your presence, indeed your everlasting legacy will continue to live on in the Hearts & Souls of those who Cherished your Life and Music from such a missed decade of the 80s onwards. Your Light will Forever Remain Shining for many Years to come and will never Blow Out. See you at the Crossroads including your Beloved Daughter (Bobbi Kristina 1993 - 2015). 1963 - 2012 - We Will Always Dance with You 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great track! The simple video that goes with it is perfect too. Just a single, beautiful image of Whitney from the beginning of her career, paused on an old school VHS. Wish we could all go back to the 80's together, and leave this mess behind.
I'm a say no - that is the AIDS epidemic, the beginning of the economic downturn we've been in because of Regan, the turbocharged war on drugs, so yeah noooo.
@@skylersneathen4799 I don't think I'm being "counter factual" It's just that we weren't so completely fascist, yet and the word "billionaire" was never uttered. College was a LOT cheaper and so was your average home. The American dream was a little more obtainable and people were more optimistic and less divided, overall. Reagan, although FAR from perfect, at least welcomed immigrants, never made fun of the handicapped, or called women pigs, and at least acted presidential. The wall in Germany came down and the Cold War finally ended. There were no MAGA chuds and we didn't live in a surveillance state, where your phone, computer and TV were spying on you. Radio, TV and newspapers were more independent and diverse, and not all owned by 3 companies. The 80's weren't perfect, but compared to right now, vastly superior. There's hope, though, and I think with a lot of effort, we could see far better days. All the best to you.
@jakewhittaker What you've done is very special - you're literally enabling people to relate across generations. This is one of my parents favorite songs, but I never "got" it... until now. Don't know if I should hate you or love you 😂 I've shared this with them, they're gonna love it.
My neighbors and I are listening to this song right now. Good stuff.
Turn it up, the walls are thick and I cant hear it
This song is so 80s, my phone became a walkman, my jacket has 20 zippers, and my hair is 3 times bigger.
name 1 song from the 80's that sounds like Sunset....anyone?

Reminds me of that one Black Mirror episode lol
@@FackYouAndy Which one? I've only seen the first season.
@@keja0 san junipero is the episode
and cocaine
@János Kelemen please, stahp, I can only take so much
I am blown away by this. Pure gold.
@@WhittakerEntertainment this is seriously nuts how good it is. Im dancing around my apartment xD
2023 still here 🩵💙🩵
Thank you! :))
This has become my original sunset, every time I want to listen to it, I listen to this instead
When this first started playing I was like ‘no way are these going to work together’ but GODDAMN THIS IS INCREDIBLE
Yes, likewise! 'Huh, this should be interesting.... wait, this is amazing!'
haha me too, In the first seconds I thought it would be trash but damn was I wrong!
Same 🤯
Same. I heard the intro and was like "meh." Then the mashup started and... was. not. prepared. Dude, you're one talented Aussie!
You kept the magic of the original and framed her iconic voice while adding your own distinctive sound. Best remix I have heard. Massive fan of The Midnight.

RIP Whitney. Thank you for all the memories
dang whitney houston was a babe back in the days
who “just” discovers this...
Crack is wack

What a lovely sound. Reminds me of a perfect summer evening.
Thankyou! :)))
I've listened to this song 10 times in the last two days. This is one o the best mashups I've ever heard.
Thank you so much!! :)))
I mean...are there other songs out there than this?
@@skylersneathen4799 yeah Carly Rae Jepsen x The Midnight
10? Those are rookie numbers
If an artist comes along with the pipes and melody lines of Whitney and the music of The Midnight, whoever picks them up would have struck gold...
WOW.....to travel back in time and graft a legend (Whitney) with artists of our generation (The Midnight)...what BEAUTIFUL tapestry!
Never would have thought to put these together.
Never thought these two would go so well together
An unreleased masterpiece. it surely would've been a huge hit in the '80s. great job, keep them coming!
Beautiful 2 fave songs ❤
Amazing. This is SUCH a great mashup dude.
As someone who grew up on Whitney Houston and is a huge fan of The Midnight, this is friggin amazing!
The one dislike is Bobby Brown.
😂👍🏽
😂😂 bro
😂
The title of this sure aged well.
Goosebumps. I hope The Midnight gets to see this. Can we make it happen? This is brilliant. Effortless.
A classic feel-good 80s song combined with synthwave, it can only lift your mood. Great job. Love this song! 📺📼💜
Thank you so much!! :)))
I have been listening to this almost daily for a year and have had it saved in my music playlist and it's still one of the best mashups I've EVER heard in my life.
Thank you so much for the support!!! :))))
@@WhittakerEntertainment of course! I once had this blaring at a local karaoke pub thanks to my aux hahaha
Best mashup EVER
Hahahah omg that’s amazing! 😂😂 I hope everyone got in on the action and sang along!
@@WhittakerEntertainment oh absolutely! My friend just thought it was a good remix so I got to introduce them to The Midnight at the same time!
Nice!! Needs to be more awareness of synthwave and The Midnight’s music I reckon! :))
This deserves millon of views.... ❤
An astounding combination. An absolute gem.
This is the best mashup I have ever heard. Beats even Girl Talk!
Incredible. Why isnt this more popular. Its works flawlessly and natural
i could listen to this on repeat for hours. I feel like i'm in a different time and i don't want to leave.
I really like this, it's a great mix, soothing, sensual and has that Midnight vibe 👍
This is brilliantly done
Okay well this just goes perfectly 🤔 almost too perfectly. You’re a wizard aren’t you...
Great mash-up! I love both of these tracks!
Wow..
We need more of these tracks..
Without Bieber..
Damn yo, that key change.
It's like seeing a family of several generations together in 1 photo :) And everyone's happy. So am I :) Wish you all lots of Love and lots of dancing in the Sunset! See you later in the 80's, my dear people!
Great work Jake - Good for the resume - displaying talent like this will open up new doors to your future in the music industry.
Bro why do I fill up with tears!!! I'm a grown ass man this shouldn't be happening 😂
Hahaha thanks dude! :)))

I love the song Sunset by The Midnight in combination with Whitney's big hit ...perfect!!! 👌👌👋👋💯
Just discovered this mashup. It’s like these two songs were made for each other. And just when I thought I was full of ecstasy, you made that key change happen and I screamed in my car and my jaw dropped for 30 seconds straight
Thank you so much!! This really brightened my day :))))
Just when I thought this song could be more perfect.... puffff
Thank you!!! :)))
I would never have put these together, but this is brilliant! Please make more things like this :D

The modulation really took me buy surprise! That was sick!
I adore Sunset and this takes the song take it to another level!! I’m seriously impressed, shared the heck out of it!!

If you going to mess with two great songs for a mashup it must this good!!!!!.....welcome mate!!! Weldone....the blend just works, Whitney and The Midnight will be very proud of you!!!!

You know in some lucky alternate universe, this is the version everyone got and the world was healthier for it.
Amazing work. Can't wait to hear more. I'm the biggest midnight fan
Crazy version, amazing! Congrats

Two songs that has no right to be mashed up together, but ohhhh you make it sound so good!
Man! The vocals pretty much fits perfectly with the song! Crazy! Awesome mix!
This is awesome 😎 Whitney would have loved this.
This is obviously on another level of wholesomeness!!!!
OMG, this is absolutely perfect! Thanks for posting
Thanks! :)))
INCREDIBLE REMIX! 💖💜💖💜💖💜
I....just....wow. This was amazing! Would love more of these for sure
Brilliant remix!!! Great work athmosphere!!!

Little did Jake Whittaker know that this would inspire The Midnights Dance With Somebody.
WOW I have listened to this song 1000,000,000 times. What a great mash up. Please make more 80s song/mashups!!! ie Living on a prayer?
I got goosebumps! IT FITS SO PERFECTLY!!!!! Congratulations, it's amazing!
This. Is. AWESOME!
DAMN this is fire
Thanks!! :))
Oh my days ...amazing!
Thanks! :)))
I wish i discovered this way back!
It's like this simultaneously improves both songs
28 December 2024 ❤
Amazing remix, Happy New Year 2025🤗💪
I'm waiting for Nocturnal The Midnight with your remix🙌❤️
Happy new year to you! I’ll try and work towards a mashup for Nocturnal :))))
Ive been chasing the best mashup... Like a surfer chasing the dream wave... This could be the one x

I came in skeptical. This was roughly 9000 times better than I expected.
Genius!!! We want more!
GREAT mashup! Vibing to this a few times today
This absolutely phenomenal! Well done!
I'm just here for the heart
Whitney would have loved this collaboration, this right up there with Aerosmith and Run DMC doing their version of Walk this way.
Wow! I’m impressed. ❤️
Great Job Sounds awesome , greetz from Germany
HOLD UP!!!!! This is Amazing!!!!! I wasn't expecting this to be THIS GOOD!!!!
Anyone else wake up with this song already playing in their head for the past few days?
Oh wow! Mind blowing. Well done 👏.
4:10 About the time I felt like crying
Very very clever 👍👍👍
Fantastic mashup!
