This song was composed in under 15 minutes while he was improvising with his orchestra and backup singers at a live show in Pittsburg in 1958. The audience reacted with such enthusiasm that Charles decided to record it. B.t.w. the best song all over the world!!!
The drum part is extraordinary ! Paul McCartney said one of the reasons they wanted Ringo to join the band is because he could play the drum part to this song !

And Ringo loved Lightning Hopkins. Of course, Ray Charles was a powerful influence too!
This is one of those songs that blew me away on first listen. Usually it takes me several listens to "get" a song, but not this one. A timeless classic.
I remember my band teacher had us play a small part for this, cause he was hoping he’d “aspire us to compete in the talent show” and we weren’t to bad. And I was on cow bells
@the teetto and @ Mustapha Aazim, why don't you go listen to Cheb Mami or Rachid Tahar? Me i don't listen music from people i do not like you see what i mean, Ray Charles is not talking to your people, so stop annoying cursing. You don't even know about english, both of you, you need to learn english first.
Till the horns enter at almost 4 minutes? THAT is a 3-piece band centered around a little Wurlitzer electric piano with about 63 keys that sold for a couple/few hundred bucks back in the day! That is also what's called SOUL! Wurlitzer shoulda paid Brother Ray for the only advertisement they'd EVER need for a "Wurly" for more than half a century! ...WOW!
His brain was about 5 seconds ahead of his fingers. Never ever will be another. Love him. Sock hops in high school. Class of 61... Him and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Ray Charles had more talent in his left pinky finger than most artists have in their entire being; he was an innovator and musical genius. I always liked Ray Charles when I was a little kid (I was born in ‘79, so I grew up listening to Ray. Georgia being the first song of his that I remember hearing) and now that I’m 40 years old, I love Ray Charles and I have a huge appreciation for his musical contributions and talents.
When music was music. An old masterpiece. And this was done from someone who was BLIND. Ray know 100% where the notes are in the piano. Faith always prevails. He is one of those few guys who had MAD talent.
My friend and I danced our asses off driving through town today on this song, and everyone around us was cheering for us just having a good time. I have not had such a good time listening to a song in a long time :D
I really listen to the track in the car today and all I could think of that drumming on this track is complete genius I had to find out who the drummer was such a straight… The use of the times do use of the ride symbol… Lol Glenn
The 50s wouldnt be the 50s without the music realesed in the end of the decade: Johnny B Goode; Whatd i say; Put Your Head on My Shoulder ans many more. I know some people consider this song as 60s but for me this was the last revolutionary sound of the decade. I fcking love the 50s!!!! Elvis Presley, Ray Charles, Fat Dominos, Buddy Hollie, Everly Brothers, Hank Williams, Etc. Sometimes id like to be american. You have a lot of great music.
@@3r7h130undx 'Break on through' i guess, there is a video where another "Ray" Manzarek (Pianist) used this same baseline. Well they steal from anybody.
The definitive Ray Charles song. I remember back in 1972 when I was 15 working at a skating rink and the owner, (the infamous Carl Clark, Idabel, Oklahoma, former B17 pilot) was always playing Ray Charles. Such a good skate two-stepping song. Ray, you was always rocking the rink!
@@michaelbarnett7691 Ringo got the gig with The Beatles, partly because he could play a version of this. Their previous drummers couldn't. Brother Ray's drummer is the business. Stay healthy.
I remember when I heard the song for the first time, almost twenty years ago when the movie "Ray" with Jamie Foxx as Ray Charles came out. And since then I've loved Ray's music and the film starts right with that song. Simply legendary.
I remember when 'Whad I Say' was played in clubs and it could go on for 45 minutes rolling into, "see the girl dressed in red" and then black, and every other color possible. I always loved the perfect blend with the Rayletts chorus in the background.
Un événement historique : le passage de Nat King Cole (que j'adore) à autre chose, qui était encore du jazz (Ray Charles ne l'a jamais quitté) et en même temps autre chose : rock ? rythm and blues ? What'd I say en 1959, c'est un gand virage. Les sixties lui doivent tout.
Man, I'm a white 43 year old guy and the first time I hear this song I was about 7 on the jukebox at a restaurant and I kept playing it over and over!! When I got older I started getting what this jam is all about, and there may not be a sexier song ever made lol! It's addictive! I mean, you feel like a million bucks when you hear it. I can imagine ol Ray and his band playing this in nightclubs for hours and the crowd begging him to keep it going!
One of the Greatest to ever do it in Music! I sure do miss him, along with my family members that listened to him! Glad I was brought up on music like this!

The drummer deserves some serious credit! Wow!
What was him
You are absolutely right. The drummer created so many amazing textures! It’s because of him that a good song became great.

Or rocking your head in the beat.
Correct 👌👌👌
Damn was laying in bed, read this comment, and realized my toes were tapping the air
I was doing that while i scrolled down and seen your comment
C'est exactement Ça !!!
Charles created this song on stage to fill lime remaining in his contract. No rehersal...all off the cuff. Brilliant !!!
Really? Astounding!
The young people back then were more cultured! Also, most of their music was GOOD. Hence the appreciation.
@@FederazioneCiclisticaItaliana right back at you.

Ray Charles ran out of songs to perform in a concert and in return, created the greatest song in the first year of Billboard 100 history.
Easily one of the greatest songs EVER recorded. AWESOME
This is one of the greatest R&B/Rock&Roll tunes ever made.
I agree!
61 years later, this song is still smokin'
Take it to the house kid
so ahead of his time
Indeed. Vintage masterpiece.
This track is the eseence of Ray Charles.

The original is way better than any cover out there.
You are right. Bobby Darin's version is a distant second best. The rest ( Covers) t do not come anywhere close to the original
Jerry Lee plays the hell out of this one too I think. Especially at his concert in 83' at Hammersmith Odeon London
Why can't pop/rock music nowadays sound anywhere near this level?

He manages to not only notice someone trying to steal, but shoot at them, and nearly miss them.
Deadley Spawn: I would kindly add: thanks Mom for playing bigg Ray Ray on the phonograph, still listening at 59..
The most awesome man. The night I met my husband at a party, we danced to this song most of the evening. Ray rules! 😊
