This is one of the most underrated bands in the history of rock and roll. So many great songs. Long Way There is my favorite. Beautiful guitar solos and great strings.
I have no idea if you are thinking of Supertramp's "Take The Long Way Home" or Little River Band's "It's a Long Way There." But I agree with you in either case about either band! :-)
Long Way There is my favourite too. As an Aussie, it's great to see you reacting to one of our best bands from their era. Home On A Monday is good too.
Growing up in the 70's, with no internet, Little River Band was often heard but seldom seen on American television. All we got from Australia were Olivia, Air Supply and of course the Bee Gees. They were all worthy, but the Little River Band had a unique sound. Never be another like them
The Little River Band is an incredible band from Australia. You need to react to some of their big hits like "Reminiscing", "Help Is On Its Way", "Lonesome Loser", "Take It Easy on Me", "Lady" and "The Night Owl"
Jay and Amber, I love your show. I'm totally addicted to it. Your reactions to the songs I know word for word and grew up with. It's just so amazing, God bless and keep the amazing job!!
My brother was a police officer and on his off time he could be found fishing on a beautiful lake. He died at the age of 44 of cancer. He asked for this song to be played at his funeral. Still brings tears.
“Now that my life is so prearranged…I know that it’s time for a cool change”. Few lyrics hit me harder or make me question life more than this one does. Always makes me want to sell the house, quit the job, cash in the 401K and disappear to solitude and peace.
Wife and I did just that. Sold everything, downsized and bought a 40ft RV. Livin the Life just North of the Gulf of Mexico. You COULDN"T PAY either of us enough to go back to it. Cheaper, prettier, (I'm actually a Florida Native) and CALMER.
This song has special meaning for me. I saw the Little River Band in 1979, a week or so before I was headed out to San Diego for Navy bootcamp. I was about to become a sailor for the next 6 years and I wasn't even 20 yet. It was the first time I'd left Missouri. I got goosebumps watching them play this then knowing I was about to become a sailor and had a "Cool Change" coming my way...and still get goosebumps when I hear the start of this song. It was indeed a Cool Change.
This band has many beautiful songs. This song was released in 1979, 2nd single from their 5th album,"First under the Wire". It made it to Number 10 on the Billboard charts. Next "Lonesome Loser". The vocals are great. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
The Little River Band was the opening band at the first big concert I ever attended. It was a triple bill at The Yale Bowl in New Haven Connecticut, June 14th 1980. The Little River Band was fantastic. Their vocals were off the charts. After The Little River Band was Heart and then The Eagles.
@@333perfection It was a fantastic concert. My friends and I learned a valuable lesson that day. Don't start drinking Jack Daniels at 9:00am in 94 degree heat. We spent a good portion of the concert looking for a friend who we found out later had passed out in a bathroom. If you have the vinyl album The Eagles Live, there is a poster that came with it. I'm in there somewhere.
One of their best songs from LRB this takes me back to late 1979 early 1980 when this was released on the airwaves at that time.... great music and memories.
I'm in a minute I'm in a Christmas mood I'm feeling good I want to split some cheer spread some compassion You know red the color red that's Christmas Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year but I've Read sovan Reid So VINAO red could sing a song now and he had a good and going with Teddy bear Teddy bear that's the song for Christmas cause it shows love and come
But seriously a Teddy bear is a real good song for Christmas it does put some compassion I'm tired of your heart and make you think about it all I don't know-it-all
I was thinking about grandma because grandma got run over by raindair that's a d*** good song grandma got run over by a rander I like to drink a little better one and I listened to that 1 on about after I've had tooth tooth too good glasses of strong one Hey I put that no new
It's Christmas in Dixie that's what Alabama would sigh I just love that song Alabama doing Christmas Christmas and Dixie cause I am in Dixie s*** that's where my heartight ha it's never left but my fate's type pretty much here too though
Got ur beanbag, bourbon, earphones and candles? Oh yeah, love this group. So many beanbag greats. Love chillaxing with these guys. Thanx so much, Blessings
This song always brings tears to my eyes. I grew up boating, skiing & swimming on/in the rivers & lakes of Kentucky but it's the ocean that calls to me, always. Every summer we went to Florida for vacation. In my adult life I go whenever I get the chance but not as often as I used to. I actually get homesick for the beach & the water. I love to swim out past the breakers & just relax, letting the smooth roll of the sea lull me & soothe my spirit. Some people just enjoy the water as a kind of playground. Others feel a primal pull that's undeniable & spiritual. I've felt it since I was 3 years old & always will. This song expresses it beautifully. Thanks for reacting to it. And gratitude to The Little River Band for the song itself. 💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙
I also love this song and being an Aquarian I love the water. We live on the east coast of Florida and being on the water is the most peaceful, relaxing, getting lost in the wonder of it all is the best feeling. And when the dolphins play in the wake of our boat, man, nothing like it. And the east coast is absolutely beautiful like the panhandle.
I didn’t see the ocean until I was 26. And it’s been 11 years since I’ve seen it. Disabled and physically and financially know I will probably never get back there. When I first saw the ocean, the pelicans, the smell of the air, the sound and feel of the waves… knew I was home. I miss it so much. Think our souls lead us there.
Deborah, I completely understand how you feel. Decades ago, when I was just a punk at 15 years old and turning 16 in late August, I signed up for a SCUB diving class out here in California through my high school, that was an occupational program aimed at making me either a lifeguard or if I took more classes, a commercial diver or underwater welder. I did end up being a lifeguard one summer and hated it, but I loved the sea. When I got to college, I took a marine bio course and an oceanography class just so I would better understand the world I loved to explore. I would spend almost every weekend on scuba at places like Crescent Bay, Seal beach, Laguna beach, Corona Del Mar and many others. I had many awesome experiences and learned that I was the visitor, and that mankind is just a tourist down there. I've seen many species of whales and sharks; I've played with dolphins and seals. I watched sharks, little and large, swim right by me and I've been bumped by God only knows what while hanging out in the kelp forest along the California coast. I've drifted on the surface at night and watch falling stars burn up and become part of our planet. I probably have close to two thousand hours on scuba over my lifetime. I used to keep a dive book but lost my gear several decades ago along with my dive card but know people that have their own compressors so I can almost always get my air tanks filled. (That's how dive shops stop the government from taking control of the sport diving industry, by only allowing people that have their certification to get their tanks filled.) The sea if a beautiful but harsh mistress and when she looks her most beautiful is when she is the most dangerous. A siren song actually. Go learn how to Scuba dive and open that world even further than what is just on the surface.
@@CryptikConstruct yep, I’m Australian and Cool Change is way down my list of favourite LRB songs. I find it very B-side. I would consider Help is on its Way, Lonesome Loser, Reminiscing, It’s a Long Way There, Curiosity Killed the Cat, Little Ray of Sunshine, Happy Anniversary, Emma, Everyday of my Life, Home on Monday, Witchery, Lady, Shut Down Turn Off, …all way better tracks to name a few.
@@Laraine3 That's the beauty of music, every feels and likes the music differently. This is my favorite of theirs but I like them very very much. When I need to be at peace this is one of my favorite songs from anyone.
I saw a Little River band in Chattanooga, Tennessee at the Riverbend festival years ago. Atlanta rhythm section was there too. That was a great concert and a great night.
In my opinion one of the best and underrated bands of the 70's and 80's! Little River Band is from Australia and they were a nice change of pace compared to my hard rock that I listened to most of the time in 1980-1984! Thank you for your reaction!
Jay and Amber, you've only just scratched the surface with Little River Band. Although from Australia, they are one of the great soft-rock bands of the 70's/80's (right up there with the likes of Bread, America, Eagles, etc).
My Little River Band record had its grooves worn deeper from constant replay in the late 70’s. I still play them while sipping on a glass of wine, perfect mood.
For those of us who grew up by the Ocean this song speaks to us. The sentiments expressed in the Lyrics is something that we feel. Have always loved this!
When I get to my childhood home in Rhode Island, the smell of the ocean - even miles inland - makes me happy. When the singer says "when I'm out on the sea alone" - you ARE alone. Lying back in a drifting boat just staring up at the sky and just feeling connected -- to the sea -- to the sky. The quiet - just water lapping at the boat. BUT you know you can't let yourself get too lost in the feeling; you need to make sure you can get back. I was always in small craft - row boats, small sail boats - so a couple thousand yards from shore was my limit. I always wished I could afford something sturdier.
Definitely one of my favourite Australian Bands. The lead singer Glenn Sharrock has an awesome voice. They have tons of great songs. Glenn Frey and Don Henley from the Eagles heard Little River Band and stated they had the best vocal group harmonies they had ever heard. Try "Lady" next or "Help Is On It's Way". Both great songs
My dad passed away a few years ago. He used to love this song. We were best friends, and I haven’t listened to this since he passed because it’s painful. I love LRB and I feel like they are Australia’s answer to The Hollies and CSN, and Cool change is LRB’s answer to CSN’s Southern Cross. Oh my! Just looked it up. This song came first by a couple years. Wow.
Love this song 💗. If I'm honest I say the easy listening music of the 70s just hit you in the feels.....makes you calm......I think the music today is reflective of chaos, immorality.....we need more of the substance filled music instead of the bs today 🕊️
In 40-plus years, this song has never gotten old. Always sounds as fresh and new as the first time I heard it. Near the end, when the strings kick in...I always think..."no, no don't end. Keep going." Great song. Luved your reactions.
When I heard Reminiscing? It was my beginning to become a fan. I really liked the falsetto in a beautiful combination for the chorusses in all their songs
This is one of the best Australian groups of the 70s. Every songs is great and one of the best was not even released as a single. You need to listen to Help is on its Way and an epic It's a Long Way There.
One of my all-time favorite songs. For me it’s a reminder to take time out every once in a while and just live my life. With no worry of jobs or responsibilities. Even taking a little bit of time away from family just to be my own person. It is very important in life. Living in Florida, I take one morning every other month and go to the beach by myself. I sit with my chair, some music, and some rum punch, and just exist for a couple hours. Totally reinvigorates the soul!
I agree with Thomas, they are underrated in the history of rock & roll. I want to see you react to the song, It's a Long Way There. It's from there first album in 1973 I think. I've seen them in concert 2 times. One of those concerts I was at ,was in Sydney , Australia 🇦🇺 November 1979. I was serving in the USMC, it was on my first 6 month float around the South Pacific. The citizens of Australia treated us like we were family, I have many great memories from that shore leave we got.
I remember when I was little we would camp on the beach each summer, this song was on the radio a lot back then. I'm so blessed to have been born in Australia.
Im fro. Maine. I grew up on the ocean and this describes the feeling of awe you experience being out on the waters, bobbing up and down, sailing and feeling the breeze on yours ur face ❤
"Well I was born in the sign of water and it's there I feel my best" makes this song feel like it was written just for me. I love it. I've lived my whole life never more than an hour from the ocean and I can't imagine not having access to it.
Always loved LRB. You've got two songs under your belt, but the next on your list has to be "Lonesome Loser". You can also do "The Night Owls", "Reminiscing", or my personal fave, "The Other Guy".
"Dancin' in the key of life", by Steve Arrington (1985). BTW, before he went solo, Steve Arrington was a drummer for the legendary funk group, SLAVE, who has great hits like "Just A Touch of Love" (1979), "Watching You" (1980), and "Slide" (1977).
This was my theme song for a while when I felt so overwhelmed. I live in a land-locked city now but I was also "born by the side of water and it's there that I feel my best." Thanks for the reaction, guys! My next favorite LRB song is "Lady." 💖 Have a great evening.
@@dv3507 its about the best alteration that line could get; I think the band would have approved! I'm a Cancer which is or also sort of a water sign; my sister is a Gemini and my mother was, too. :--)
I love this song. I could live on a deserted beach with nothing but the sounds of the surf, sounds of the seagulls and dolphins in the background. I am also land locked in OKie land. Good reaction.

Jay & Amber, you'll love their hits "Reminiscing", "Lady" and "Lonesome Loser"!!
I second this!!!! All their songs are great.
Yes Yes and Yes!
Yes! Lonesome Loser first, because of those harmonies in the beginning.
I agree, al worth a listen and also Help Is On the Way
@@rulebs "Help Is On Its Way" is the title.
This is one of the most underrated bands in the history of rock and roll. So many great songs. Long Way There is my favorite. Beautiful guitar solos and great strings.
I have no idea if you are thinking of Supertramp's "Take The Long Way Home" or Little River Band's "It's a Long Way There." But I agree with you in either case about either band! :-)
With you, man. Criminally underrated!
Long Way There ?
My favorite has always been “Lady”👻
Long Way There is my favourite too. As an Aussie, it's great to see you reacting to one of our best bands from their era. Home On A Monday is good too.
It's a damn crime this band is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
R&R Hall of Fame is a joke!
High crime indeed
They are here in Australia.. 😊🇦🇺👍
ALOT OF THE GREATEST BANDS ARE NOT ITS VERY SAD AND PATHETIC OF THE RRHOF Should be the HALL OF SHAME

Great 70s band one of my favorite's.
Little river band still tour's. Mainly in small venue's..
My brother was a police officer and on his off time he could be found fishing on a beautiful lake. He died at the age of 44 of cancer. He asked for this song to be played at his funeral. Still brings tears.
Little River Band. Many songs on my Playlist
“Now that my life is so prearranged…I know that it’s time for a cool change”. Few lyrics hit me harder or make me question life more than this one does. Always makes me want to sell the house, quit the job, cash in the 401K and disappear to solitude and peace.
Don’t think I’ve ever gotten a heart from you guys, makes me happy because it’s clear you are good people and I like that you maybe think I am too.
@@knew3355 You deserve the heart, you literally put in words my exact thoughts
YES to all of this.
@@knew3355 I did, no regrets
Wife and I did just that. Sold everything, downsized and bought a 40ft RV. Livin the Life just North of the Gulf of Mexico. You COULDN"T PAY either of us enough to go back to it. Cheaper, prettier, (I'm actually a Florida Native) and CALMER.

From LRB......greetings from OZ...
I saw Little River Band in concert opening for Boston back in the 70's. They put on a hellofa show!
This band has many beautiful songs. This song was released in 1979, 2nd single from their 5th album,"First under the Wire". It made it to Number 10 on the Billboard charts. Next "Lonesome Loser".
The vocals are great. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
Me too
Not "Fire Under The Wire." "First Under The Wire." Look at the cover photo. It was their 5th album, not 6th. Yes, they have any beautiful songs.
"First Under The Wire" is my favorite album by them. "It's Not A Wonder" should have been a hit and that whole second side takes me on a journey.
"Reminiscing" is another great one by these guys.
I think "Lonesome Loser" is by far their best song. It's one of my favorite songs ever. You should do that one next. I'm sure you'd both love it.
Wish I could give this 65 thumbs up!!!...it's so iconic and epic!
Little River Band is its own vibe. Soulful, smooth. So under-rated.
The Little River Band was the opening band at the first big concert I ever attended. It was a triple bill at The Yale Bowl in New Haven Connecticut, June 14th 1980. The Little River Band was fantastic. Their vocals were off the charts. After The Little River Band was Heart and then The Eagles.
I'm certain that day was Awesome 💚🙂
@@333perfection It was a fantastic concert.
My friends and I learned a valuable lesson that day. Don't start drinking Jack Daniels at 9:00am in 94 degree heat. We spent a good portion of the concert looking for a friend who we found out later had passed out in a bathroom.
If you have the vinyl album The Eagles Live, there is a poster that came with it. I'm in there somewhere.
Greatest song ever….
when it comes to the little river band....... this is my all time favorite song ..... so glad yall did this one
This is the one song that I'll listen to when I'm feeling off. It helps me get my center back
One of their best songs from LRB this takes me back to late 1979 early 1980 when this was released on the airwaves at that time.... great music and memories.
1979 RIGHT HERE LOL
I used to love hearing Little River Band on my AM clock radio when I was a kid in the late 70s.
Reminiscing is a must, its so good
The water is so relaxing. It's like another world. Every time I get out there, I hate coming back. Could be out there forever.
"Reminiscing", "Lady", "Lonesome Loser", "Help Is On the Way", "The Night Owls", and "Take It Easy On Me", are awesome by the Little River Band...😀❤️
All 🔥🎶 right there ☺️
My jam since I first heard them in 1970 something.
One of the most moving and underrated songs of all time

Top Little River Band Songs. #1- "It's A Long Way There" #2 -"Reminiscing", #3 -"Lady" and #4 - "Lonesome Loser" IMHO
Sailing is the most exhilarating aexperience you can have. It is like nothing else I've ever done. Just something about the wind and canvas sails.
This song always brings tears to my eyes. I grew up boating, skiing & swimming on/in the rivers & lakes of Kentucky but it's the ocean that calls to me, always.
Every summer we went to Florida for vacation. In my adult life I go whenever I get the chance but not as often as I used to. I actually get homesick for the beach & the water. I love to swim out past the breakers & just relax, letting the smooth roll of the sea lull me & soothe my spirit.

I saw a Little River band in Chattanooga, Tennessee at the Riverbend festival years ago. Atlanta rhythm section was there too. That was a great concert and a great night.
It wasn't REALLY them. No original members, it's just a cover band that lucked into legally inheriting the name
Love this band...Lady and Man on Your Mind are my favorites

It's a Long Way There, 14+ minutes of amazing music and harmonies, this one you both would love.
Lead singer Glen Shorrick still singing and touring around Australia at age 75. He still sounds as great as he did back in the 60s 🇦🇺
Saw SHORROCK and CADD at the Palms at Crown on the
7th July they were both awesome and SHORROCK voice hasn't changed
Jay and Amber, you've only just scratched the surface with Little River Band. Although from Australia, they are one of the great soft-rock bands of the 70's/80's (right up there with the likes of Bread, America, Eagles, etc).
My Little River Band record had its grooves worn deeper from constant replay in the late 70’s. I still play them while sipping on a glass of wine, perfect mood.
So much to love about this and other LRB songs.
I think this has to be my favorite Little River Band song,my mom loved it to. Reminiscing is a banger
One of my top 5 favorite songs...
For those of us who grew up by the Ocean this song speaks to us. The sentiments expressed in the Lyrics is something that we feel. Have always loved this!
Exactly!
When I get to my childhood home in Rhode Island, the smell of the ocean - even miles inland - makes me happy.
When the singer says "when I'm out on the sea alone" - you ARE alone. Lying back in a drifting boat just staring up at the sky and just feeling connected -- to the sea -- to the sky. The quiet - just water lapping at the boat. BUT you know you can't let yourself get too lost in the feeling; you need to make sure you can get back.

Like the 70’s didn’t have music that you would consider immoral. smh
A timeless classic.

Now these guys are meant for you to be on your deck in the hammock a glass of scotch and a cigar enjoying a beautiful day
Love this song. This is one that you sing at the top of your lungs while you're driving down the highway
You will love their song called "Help Is On Its Way".
In 40-plus years, this song has never gotten old. Always sounds as fresh and new as the first time I heard it. Near the end, when the strings kick in...I always think..."no, no don't end. Keep going." Great song. Luved your reactions.
Love love ❤️ this song. I can relate to this song. Little River Band has a lot of great songs
You will love their song Reminiscing.
When I heard Reminiscing? It was my beginning to become a fan. I really liked the falsetto in a beautiful combination for the chorusses in all their songs
This band was everywhere on the radio in the 70s & early 80s. My sister& I couldn't get enough of them! I still listen to them to this day😎👍
This is one of the best Australian groups of the 70s. Every songs is great and one of the best was not even released as a single.
You need to listen to Help is on its Way and an epic It's a Long Way There.
Saw them live in 1980, this is my favorite song of theirs. So smooth and gave a great concert!
One of my all-time favorite songs. For me it’s a reminder to take time out every once in a while and just live my life. With no worry of jobs or responsibilities. Even taking a little bit of time away from family just to be my own person. It is very important in life. Living in Florida, I take one morning every other month and go to the beach by myself. I sit with my chair, some music, and some rum punch, and just exist for a couple hours. Totally reinvigorates the soul!
Why do I start to tear up every time I hear LR’Bs Cool Change? Wonderful 🥰🥰🥰
Their stuff was so smooth. You can't help but relax when you listen to this song.
Such a great band. So many good songs!
Lord, those bass notes are so smooth. I like turning the bass up in my car.
I agree with Thomas, they are underrated in the history of rock & roll. I want to see you react to the song, It's a Long Way There. It's from there first album in 1973 I think. I've seen them in concert 2 times. One of those concerts I was at ,was in Sydney , Australia 🇦🇺 November 1979. I was serving in the USMC, it was on my first 6 month float around the South Pacific. The citizens of Australia treated us like we were family, I have many great memories from that shore leave we got.
Underrated is an Understatement!! This is a super 70’s group!
Your reaction during the end and crescendo was great! He just felt that.
I remember when I was little we would camp on the beach each summer, this song was on the radio a lot back then. I'm so blessed to have been born in Australia.
Im fro. Maine. I grew up on the ocean and this describes the feeling of awe you experience being out on the waters, bobbing up and down, sailing and feeling the breeze on yours ur face ❤
I saw LRB in1981. This is by far my favorite of theirs. I’d break out my vinyl if I still had a turn table.
You definitely need to add their song "Lady" to your list!
Absolutely!!!! Needed to listen to "It's A Long Way There."
They have a deep catalog of top tunes.
A very pretty and smooth song.
Classy band sound
"Well I was born in the sign of water and it's there I feel my best" makes this song feel like it was written just for me. I love it. I've lived my whole life never more than an hour from the ocean and I can't imagine not having access to it.
One of my favorite reset songs when life hits hard..lol
I love the Little River Band. They had so many great songs that take me right back to my youth. Very underrated.
Love this song, makes me wish I could be out on the ocean sailing.
Always loved LRB. You've got two songs under your belt, but the next on your list has to be "Lonesome Loser". You can also do "The Night Owls", "Reminiscing", or my personal fave, "The Other Guy".
It's one of those that you would just hug your partner in a nice slow dance.
Always loved this song. Never get tired of it. ❤️
This has been one of my favorite songs forever. Had the 45. My husband's song to me from them is Lady.
All very talented. Glen Shorrock’s voice is one of my favorites. The sax, sublime.
"Dancin' in the key of life", by Steve Arrington (1985).
BTW, before he went solo, Steve Arrington was a drummer for the legendary funk group, SLAVE, who has great hits like "Just A Touch of Love" (1979), "Watching You" (1980), and "Slide" (1977).
This was my theme song for a while when I felt so overwhelmed. I live in a land-locked city now but I was also "born by the side of water and it's there that I feel my best." Thanks for the reaction, guys! My next favorite LRB song is "Lady." 💖 Have a great evening.
That lyric is "born in the sign of water," meaning astrological. Cool comment. ;-)
@@bobdavis4848 haha, true! I'm a Gemini so I altered the lyrics. 😁
@@dv3507 its about the best alteration that line could get; I think the band would have approved! I'm a Cancer which is or also sort of a water sign; my sister is a Gemini and my mother was, too. :--)
@@bobdavis4848 ah, nice. Thanks for sharing!
@@dv3507 You're welcome! I see you are a Rob Squad subscriber, too! ;-) Happy Holidays to you and yours!
I love this song. I could live on a deserted beach with nothing but the sounds of the surf, sounds of the seagulls and dolphins in the background. I am also land locked in OKie land. Good reaction.
