People sleep on George Benson. He is a legend. He did the original version of The Greatest Love Of All, and it was so powerful it will make you cry.
It did just make me cry, it wasn't pretty: ruclips.net/video/Bw26pG7u5ak/видео.html
Agree totally!
I've always preferred his version of "Greatest Love of All," but maybe that's because I knew it first.
Actually, Dolly Parton did the original The Greatest Love Of All. I didn't know George Benson did it too, though!
@@bonniespruin6369 I'm going to have to listen to this - I love Dolly!
George Benson had quite a few hits back in the day "This Masquerade" "Give Me The Night" "Breezin" "Turn Your Love Around" and "The Greatest Love Of All" which was made popular again when Whitney Houston redid it!
"Turn Your Love Around" is a completely underrated gem. So funky and danceable!
Another good one, his cover of the jazz standard "Moody's Mood," a duet with Patti Austin, which also features his fine guitar playing.
You nailed it! I dunno the business that well but it seems as if they're reacting to hand outs or just signature songs from artist.
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT His best? He didn't even play his guitar! But you're right because I saw a PBS and women were trying to get on stage and dance with him. They were successful.
Don’t forget “Summertime”! 🔥🔥🔥
Give me the night was ABSOLUTELY amazing, as was Masquerade. I swear you guys keep raiding my record collection! Love you guys! {{{hugs}}}
Yes indeed I simply think Give me the night is my favorite of his.
That was my favorite too
Yes! And "On Broadway" and "In your eyes". (BTW, I think they've already done Give me the night)
Jay and Amber did This Masquerade? No way, I missed that one!
@@kmach1000 Two of my faves as well! Also "Breezin" is an iconic instrumental! I remember my Dad loved George Benson, and he had all of the 8-track tapes that he'd play in the car whenever he'd come to pick us up from school. "Breezin" will forever be the one I remember the most. So nostalgic...😍🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶
Wow! I never realized the Glen Medeiros version was a cover. You learn something new everyday.
I actually like that one better, maybe because it's the one I have always heard. I love George Benson, but think the other version is better.
I didn't realize it either. It's Glen's version I listened to and always remember. I don't think I was even aware George Benson sang this. I believe the versions are only a couple of years apart, so there's that. I like them both.
Same!!!
I’m more familiar with the Glen Medeiros version but I prefer this one better. In Your Eyes is another one of my favorites.
Ditto...never realized the Glen Medeiros version was a cover either. Learn something new either day.
Glen Mederos had a hit with this song in '87 and it was my favorite for about a year. I didn't realize it was a cover until I got Benson's 20/20 ablum a couple years later. Both are great and entirely different styles.
Isn’t his vocals sweet? Soothing sound comes out of his mouth! He also plays a mellow guitar! Check it out!
Mederos' version is... not great. It's not even good. The only thing that boy had going for him is that 13-year-old girls wanted to marry him.
@@btgiv6009 Nah, your opinion is not great. It's not even good. But thanks for weighing in.
@@btgiv6009 Clearly you have no taste. racists don't
I had no idea it was a cover until now. I had to click on the reaction to see if this was the same song. My first time hearing the original.
On Friday and Saturday when I was a kid my dad would be blasting George Benson on the stereo. He still does! I didn't like the music, but I love it now. A very deep rabbit hole here, but you have to hear "This Masquerade", "On Broadway", "Off Broadway", "Love Ballad", "Lady Love Me one more Time", and "Down here on the Ground" among many many others.
George is one of the best jazz guitarist around
Mostly instrumentals
His playing is in the same style as the late great Wes Montgomery.
If you think George Benson is a great vocalist you need to hear him play guitar. This Masquerade, and On Broadway, really show off his guitar and vocal skills.
Got that right
On Broadway is my favorite song!!! George’s version and the original
I hope they listen to both of these songs! They are the essence of George Benson. 🎷 🎸 🎤
You my friend nailed it! I just commented that when you see him on stage sing and play, it's unbelievable. Even when he played "Breezin" with Carlos Santana he was better to my opinion. "Masquerade" is my favorite. It seems reaction videos play the signature songs, but many times the unpleasant ones.
Yes! Heading George play guitar solo while he scats with it nite for note will blow your mind! Masquerade and on Briadway his two best displaying this particular talent.
George Benson is a legend considered one of the greatest jazz guitarist of our time. He has quite a few R&B and Jazz hits also. A few of his hits that I love “Breezin’” , “Love x Love” and “Turn Your Love Around”.
George Benson is also a brilliant Guitarist! I was lucky enough to see him in Concert a few years ago at Sheffield Arena UK. A great Performer!
George is my all-time favourite. I've seen him in concert 3 times, the last time was only a few months ago, and he's still brilliant 👏
George had many big popular hits but this is a cover I have never heard on the radio. The single was by Glenn Medeiros in 1987.
You guys will love George's TURN YOUR LOVE AROUND
Meet him once when he was a customer in a store I was working at. An absolute gentleman and a pleasure to talk to. Super friendly, kind and 100% present. It was maybe 30-40 minutes of interaction but I won’t forget it.
George is a legend (and FYI, he will celebrate his 80th birthday in March!). "On Broadway" is a must-listen, as is "Turn Your Love Around", and "Lady Love Me (One More Time). His voice is smooth like buttah! For your next Billy Ocean song, I hope you do "Loverboy". It will SURPRISE you, and the video is a trip!!
Had to go check out "Loverboy" That Video IS a Trip👽👾🦎!!
The opening sequence of All That Jazz with On Broadway is one of the great movie intros ever.
Give Me The Night was probably my favorite song by George Benson
Had front row seats in 1977 at the Sunrise Musical Theater in Florida. George Benson is a great guitarist, very smooth, great voice. On Broadway and Greatest Love of All were two great songs he sang among others.
"On Broadway"!!!
Notice how he does vocal scat with his voice and jazz guitar licks with his hands in perfect unison!
Jay & Amber, you'll love his "On Broadway" and "This Masquerade"!!!
On Broadway is my favorite George Benson!
When I was a teenybopper - I fell in love with Glen Medeiros's version of this. It was THE song that I loved and played the most. I didn't even realize that it was a cover. Would LOVE to hear your reaction to Glen's version as well.
Yes! Glen Medeiros' is the only version I've ever heard from the mid eighties. I was in middle school.
@@emeraldtiger7135 And I had SUCH a crush on him too. The good ole days - lol.
Goerge started out as a Jazz guitarist. When his album Breezin came out there was only one vocal composition on it. I come from his hometown of Pittsburgh, the story is that When George was waiting to record Masquerade. he played through it in rehearsal and sang to it. They love it so much that they put it on the album. That really started his professional singing career. Then he recorded The Greatest Love of All and Broadway sealing his career. He is a fabulous guitarist!
Love your vibe, but he goes further back than you think before Leon Russell "Masquerade" in the 70's go back another 20 years. LOL
@@FlipArt57 I know that he goes back to the mid sixties and was known for scat while he played. But Breezin was his breakout album.
@@deborahscalise3215 Yes! Because his commercial hit is the relevancy here. So much so "The Midnight Special" had he and Carlos Santana DUAL it out. George was such a gentlemen he let Carlos take more of the song. In the projects 1969-74, Carlos Santana was our "Guitar Hero." But when "Breezin" was released George was my hero. The timing was right, a better version of "Bobby Womack." His version wasn't as beautiful and complex as George Bensons. George hit two birds in one stone, in the same album is "Affirmation" from Jose Feliciano. Both those songs dominated over the originals by critics. Kinda rare.
@@FlipArt57 I have seen both live and they are fabulous.
@@deborahscalise3215 Notice that George Benson was holding back giving him the red carpet? I shouldn't "bother" you anymore but, listen to Affirmation from Jose Feliciano and notice how sweet George Bensons version is. Thanks for everything Deb.
I have seen George Benson live four times though the years.On Broadway, Breezin showcase his phenomenal guitar mastery! Absolutely enjoy your show and reactions!🎉😮
Remember he's one of the greatest guitarist ever along with his singing and scat.Breezin, On Broadway live and Masquerade are musts!
This Masquerade written by Leon Russell is one of his best.
I like george’s version but for me the carpenters version is even better
I remember such a smooth beautiful voice. George Benson. Haven’t heard him in quite a while. Thanks for this! ❤
I was thinking the same thing; can't remember the last time I heard him. Loved hearing him again :)
George Benson was smooth a can be. He still sounds the dame to this day.
Benson ,has my heart for sure ,❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️, one of the best ! Love and good vibes 😊
Love George Benson's music. 'On Broadway' and 'Give Me the Night,' were big hits for him.
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT Yes, great song. I should have included that one in the list.
1st time for me hearing George do this, Ive only heard it sung by Glenn Mederios
Turn your love around us a personal fave. On Broadway is a classic of his too!
Once again. All these songs that I love and had no idea who it was!
A guitar no vocals and classic jam you would love is “ Breezing” truly sounds like the guitar is doing the singing.
Love this song! I had no idea Glenn Medeiros was not the original artist; that's the only recording I've ever heard. My history with this song is a bit different. When Glenn Medeiros released his version in 1987, I was living in Costa Rica. There were a couple of radio stations that played mostly music in English, and they would have local top ten countdowns in addition to broadcasting Kasey Kasem's American Top 40. Glenn's cover was a hit in Hawaii and in other countries before making it back to the US mainland. I heard the song climb the local charts and then fall back off. Then someone recorded a Spanish version. It had climbed the local charts and fallen off before I finally heard it start up the US charts.
I only remember Glenn’s version , I don’t know who recorded it first, but the dying hold back time, it took me there all over again and the lady in my life at that moment! Learn sunshine something new every day!!
Written by Gerry Goffin
Carol King’s ex husband and writing partner
George did it first
They're both fabulous!
In 1986, 16 year old Glenn Medeiros won a radio talent contest in his home state of Hawaii, when he performed a cover version of this song. A radio executive from Phoenix heard the song and took a recording back to his station, where it spread like wildfire, and it became a national hit, then later, a worldwide hit. It reached #12 on the Billboard Hot 100, spent four weeks at number one in the UK, and reached #3 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart in 1988.
I love George so much! That voice!
“Breezin” is a great instrumental by Benson in 1976.
A must hit to listen to from George Benson is "On Broadway" !!! It's not disco, but came out around that era. It will get you moving for sure! Please give it a listen, you'll love it.
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT Oh Yes Definitely! "On Broadway" was the first song of George's that popped into my mind. I haven't heard “Turn Your Love Around” in quite some time. It's absolutely one of his best, and a must react to song! Great suggestion!
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT Haha, You got that right!! 😁👍
I'm going to keep plugging for Joni Mitchell singing "Both Sides Now". Her live 2000 version
George Benson's Love Ballad is my absolute favorite one of his ... think you would love it too!
I love how Amber has this small delighted smile as she’s tuning into the love in his voice, and the quality of his buttery tone. I feel it because I grew up as a child listening to this. I memorized it including the harmonies. It’s a favorite ballad in the Philippines too!!!
Al Jarreau is the voice you need to hear. I've sent suggestions about him for about a year now.
I believe this version of the song is more famous in eastern countries while the Glenn Medeiros version is more popular in the western world. So when cultures collide, there tends to be some confusion about which one is the original (this).
This Masquerade!!! Next on your list 😉
George is more than just a fantastic guitarist. but a great singer as well!
Nostalgic...always playing this song while i got traffic jam after work.😅
I love everything by him
You've GOT to do "On Broadway," "This Masquerade," and his version of "The Greatest Love of All." He's still out there performing. One of the sexiest voices in existence.
Quick story. Mr benson warming up outside for an afternoon concert on broad street NYC right outside my work on NYSE. Sat down 10 feet from him. He ripped it on the guitar. When done practicing he looked up asked me how was that? Not bad not bad at all I said. Both laughed. Truly a great entertainer and so talented.
Amber and J please play Masquerade, I think it's George Benson's BEST song I believe he won a Grammy for it. Also listen to his version of ON BROADWAY, it a classic by Mr. BENSON. his guitar and scattin is amazing love you guys!!!
George Benson is such a good vocalist, you might not even know, he is primarily known as a jazz guitarist. You should try This Masquerade. It was written and originally recorded by Leon Russell in 1972. After covers by Helen Reddy (1972) and The Carpenters (1973), George Benson released his cover in 1976. It became his first big hit. You will love the guitar/vocalization pairing as well as Jorge Dalto's piano. This Masquerade evokes such a darkened jazz lounge feeling, you can almost smell the smoke.
"LOVE X LOVE" a great song!!!. ; )
You discovered the greatest R&B Jazz singer George Benson,I have all his albums...love this guy even Whitney Houston took one of his songs and made it a great head again....love you guys love your reaction energy keep it up.
I listen to all I can everyday. You two are the best therapy a guy trying to get as much of my memory as I can.🙏Thanks!
Great memories from high school in '87
I love it how you guys get lost in the music as we all have done listening to these beautiful songs!
One of the most dedicated songs of the 80s. Glenn Medeiros did a wonderful job with it as well❣️
Smooth! The perfect word to describe the chorus. Great song
Oh! If you guys haven't done it yet, This Masquerade! Love you guys! He has been regarded as a singer who plays guitar exceedingly well, or a guitarist with an incredible vocal quality.
I especially love his 80s stuff but Suddenly was a sweet 70s song that I absolutely loved.
You should listen to Al Jarreau as well
George Benson - Turn Your Love Around
I used to always get this confused with the theme song from the movie Arthur, Christopher Cross' Best That You Can Do. Partially due to the fact that I was just a kid, and all smooth jazz sounded alike to me back then. But Benson has a really good voice, and even nowadays, he is still a good singer.
You all should listen to In your eyes and you are the love of my life by george benson it'll make you feel live all over again
I love this song. But even though George Benson first recorded this, the version I remember growing up was done by Glenn Medeiros. It is also very good.
Love George Benson! Some other great songs by him, Turn Your Love Around, Shiver, Give Me The Night, Never Give Up On A Good Thing, Love x Love, Feel Like Making Love.
Other great songs from this time, Love Has Come Around by Donald Byrd, If You Were Here Tonight and Sunshine both by Alexander O’Neal, Dreams by Smoke City, If Only You Knew and Love Need & Want You both by Patti Labelle, too many to list but you’ll love them!
Other artists you should experience are Lillo Thomas, Mel’isa Morgan, Melba Moore, Teena Marie and Patrice Rushen.
Great reaction! ❤️❤️
Both George Benson and Gino Vinelli were grossly under appreciated. I adore them both
That man knows nothing but Smoooth!
Love this song. Takes me back...
"Turn Your Love Around" by George Benson is 🔥 very nostalgic for me
Still remember his New Zealand concert 40 years ago 😊
Don't miss out on Masquerade. You guys will absolutely love it.
Add to your more of list James Ingram! Just once, I don’t have the heart, Baby come to me (duet with Patti Austin) Somewhere out there(duet with Linda Ronstadt) for classic 50’s romantic song you two definitely wouldn’t go wrong with Lenny Welch “Since I fell for you”For a journey into rich manly tones I strongly suggest Brook Benton “it’s just a matter of time, Rainy night in Georgia. “ much love and happiness robsquad family ❤😊
You would love his songs, Love X Love, Give Me The Nights, Lady Love Me, and Breezin' if you loved this one
George Benson-"This Masquerade"
Being here with you Jay and Amber puts a smile on my face🙂
I had never heard George Benson’s recording of this song. I only heard the one that was all over radio by Glenn Medeiros.
I love this song. Gives me chills. ♥️♥️
He also gave Glenn Medeiros permission to sing this version and it was amazing as well.
Where did you hear that? I've never heard that before. I'm not sure why George Benson would have to give anyone permission as he didn't write the song.
@@magneto7930 my bad as I thought since George Benson was the original singer that’s what happened. 🤷♂️
@@cdpwillprevail1 it's all good. Glenn definitely did a great version!
One of my all-time favorites
There is a live performance of "This Masquerade" that truly shows his vocals, his mastery of the guitar & his jazz scats!!! Like nothing else!
yes, please!!
Check out George Benson and Al Jarreau doing Summer breeze
"There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make you Cry)," "Loverboy," and "Love Really Hurts Without You" (I could go on) are some really good songs from Billy Ocean.
George Benson is an artist I always wanted to see live, unfortunately I haven't managed to
Turn your love around, is a great song 🎵
George Benson is so talented it ought to be illegal. Singer, composer and oh yeah world class guitarist.
Beautiful love song.
Guys you did George Benson before, Just give me the night.
Must do, On Broadway and Masquerade
There is another rendition of this Song. Sergio Mendes, which is actually the original. Benson is so great guitar player that sometimes we forget the extraordinary singer he is.
You definitely need to check out This Masquerade by George Benson!
This Masquerade...a Masterpiece
George Benson is awesome! Do "This Masquerade" next!
George Benson at 79 is still great live. I saw George at the Albert Hall in London last June as it was a delayed concert for two years due to Covid restrictions. He was fantastic. Also have seen George at Wembley Arena London way back in 86. One of the best I have seen live.
I had no idea the 1987 version was a cover! That's the only version I've ever heard. Wow
This is a standard song for every male artist and singer who is studying to be a singer.
Sweet and clear❤
George Benson is fire! You should react to the Bee Gees (Love you inside out) - definitely a different experience! Love them!
If you look up the definition of the word “Smooth” you’ll see a picture of George Benson😊
You definitely should react to "Turn Your Love Around" from late 1981 which is one of his best songs. "On Broadway" is another great choice. One of his most underrated and least known songs by George Benson is "Lady Love Me One More Time" from 1983. Billy Ocean's "Loverboy" is a fun song with an awesome video.
Oh!! I had forgotten all about this song!! I loved it so much "back in the day".
Hey Amber, Have you hear of an 80's group named The Jetts? It's a group of brother and sisters...I think like 9 of them. They wrote the lyrics and music and played the instruments to a number of big hits in the 80's... You got It All; Crush On You; Make It Real... You Got It All has a sax solo that you will really love. They were really good and cool that they were all family. Also, how about Nu Shooz... they sang Point of No Return and I Can't Wait. I suggest I Can't Wait first.
Love x love great song as well, the list goes on 🙏🏻🇬🇧xxx
