I appreciate what you're saying about appreciation of the music. It's taken me a LONG time, but I now appreciate the Plastic Ono Band. I'm not adding it to a play list - but I "get" it, and appreciate it! Keep on keepin' on!
For some of us more "senior" watchers - Back when this song first came out, one of the Philly DJs referred to Steve Winwood as the "illegitimate son of Sam and Dave!" Ha-ha!
Glad your next line was and Dave. Son of Sam got a bad vibe huh? Just kidding how ya getting on with these golden years? Senior 1 egg instead of 2 and 2 strips of bacon instead of 3 yeah that's a senior discount you bet. Have a wonderful day hang in there we aren't dead or senile yet and I've got the papers to prove it. Haha
One of my favorite tunes! Jamel, you are great man! So much fun to see you reacting to these tunes. Reminds me of when i went off to school and my buds taught me about Steely Dan and Led Zeppelin. And I taught them about Average White Band and New Orleans music. Keep em coming! Here's a few to consider. The Meters (aka The Neville Brothers) album: Rejuvenation song: People Say (New Orleans funk) song: Hey Pocky Way (New Orleans dancin in the street music) Jeff Beck album: blow by blow song: Cause we've ended as lovers (you GOT to hear this!) All Led Zeppelin is good, but do album: houses of the holy song: The Crunge (Led Zep tribute to James Brown) All Steely Dan is good, but do album: The Nightfly song: IGY album: katy lied song: Chain Lightning Love ya man!! Peace! Elliot
they actually may just come back with back in the High Life they put it back on the charts with a bunch of great songs like higher Love Freedom over spill the title track. then he continued on going down with roll with it
@@courtnayzeitler4854 well at the time it was sort of a comeback form cuz you know after traffic he had those into the early 80s with Valerie ark of a diver but then he kind of faded out for a little bit off of the pop scene he was doing some more traffic stuff and more jamming.. but then he came back with back in the High Life and then he was on top again for quite a while selling away it was sort of a comeback for him onto the charts I guess you could say
When this song came out, I knew nothing about Steve Winwood. I thought it was kinda poppy and ubiquitous and very eighties, and only later did I discover Traffic and really fall in love with his music. In retrospect, this is quite good.
Same for me, as a 13 year old. It wasn't until at least 10 years later when I heard "Dear Mr. Fantasy", and then more of the classic Traffic and Blind Faith.
I hate 80s music production - hated it while I lived through it and today, still. Nothing like going back and thinking, “hmmm, there’s a good song in there, somewhere.”
Yeah, I always knew Steve Winwood from his 80's and 90's stuff, and it wasn't until I got to about 20 when I made the connections with Traffic, Blind Faith, et al... Born in 1984 rocking out and singing before I could talk
Nothing poppy about this. It was written with Steve by soul music legend writers Holland, Dozier and Holland. By the way, nothing wrong with pop music. I hate genres anyway.
At 70 years old I still roll with this. I play along with my Fender 70's Jazz Bass when the feeling hits me. If you can't roll with this you ain't among the living. Thanks Jamal for introducing the younglings to real music.
Steve Winwood has a legendary voice. It's amazing how good it's remained from the Spencer Davis Group when he was a teenager up into his 70's. He posted a video 10 months ago of him singing "Gimmie Some Lovin" from the Spencer Davis Group and he still sounded great.
Why do people consider this a comeback song? Only two years earlier, he had hits like Higher Love, The Finer Things, and Back in the High Life. Four years before that, Valerie was a hit.
@@greenhometony I got it, and also understand your reaction. In Europe, Robbie Williams was huge, for example. The more reason to listen more Steve Winwood.
I hope you know you're a leader in resurrecting older hit music. Not only do these other people try to do what you do, but they follow your songs. You are a leader.
Thank you, Jamel - I love your appreciation of Steve Winwood's talent. He's special, and I hope that through you, more people are finding out about him.
I met Steve in St.Louis the afternoon before he kicked off his first concert in the Roll With It Tour back in 88. He is so short.😂 He gave me free tickets to the show.
Wow! I’ve always thought he looked tall in his videos. Well, dang. I’m 5’10” and I’m always surprised when I meet some of these guys and they’re shorter than me. 😆
Although it was 32 years ago, I am 5'7 and he was shorter than me or it seemed he was. Of course he was with his then pregnant wife and she is like 6'5. We were on the stairs going out of the hotel and were going to his car and maybe the stairs were distorting his height to me. He was incredibly nice and gracious and told his manager to make sure I had a ticket waiting for me for the show. It was an awesome open to the tour. I will never forget it. It was at the amphitheater.
That's one of those songs that's truly just real life...hard times hit everyone, just hang on and roll with it until the good times come back around because they will.
Bonus info; when you reacted to Prince with Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne doing "While my guitar gently weeps", it was the very talented Steve Winwood on the keys in the back..
This is old folks music...back in the day. Those Juke Joints down in Alabama....black/white folks geeting together...and rollin'. Cheap wiskey,,,no air conditioning...sweat. Mr. EWinwood is just jammin' his A@# off. The video was ahead of it's time...that slick sepia tone and that low down organ music....Churchified and funky!! This is the JAM!!
When I'm listening to tunes on TH-cam, I'm almost always doing something else at the same time so I don't usually watch the video. This one is a major exception -- I will drop everything and keep my eyes locked on the screen, and most of the time I'll play it several times in a row. This video is so damn good. A song this good deserves that!
This song hit #1 in the summer of '88, when Winwood was still only 40. It is truly amazing that he accomplished so much greatness by that time: Spencer Davis, Blind Faith, Traffic and much of his solo career. A truly gifted musician.
Brotha, you listen to music the right way! I see you expanding your musical horizons. That's why to me, you have the most entertaining reactions. Right on brother!
Hey Jamel, Please react to _"THE FINER THINGS"_ also by *Steve Winwood* , such an underrated song but feel you'll vibe with it 100 as it has a real groove to it - Love Ya Work :). EDIT: React to the FULL 5m 49s version rather than the Official Music Video as that's shorter - Here's a link: th-cam.com/video/aU4tFpwYK0s/w-d-xo.html
Jamel, loved your analysis of the song and especially your words of wisdom at the end about appreciating all the aspects of the songs you listen to. That is what separates you from most of the other reaction channels. I dig your positive attitude and appreciation for good music. Keep up the good work!
Finally Roll with It!!! I was 10 years old in the summer of 88 when this song dropped. It got so much air play on MTV (remember that channel that uses to play videos?). It was holding its own with 80’s Power Houses like Def Leppard, GnR, Poison, INXS, etc. Thanks for bringing back the memories Jamel.
Steve Winwood said his first visit to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival was the inspiration for this song and visit. Makes perfect sense to me.
Now you know the magic of Steve Windwood. I was a kid in the 60s. I was a music lover at a young age. From the Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith and as a solo act, Steven Windwood is a true talent.
Huey Lewis and the News!!! What a voice. Start with Hip To Be Square if you liked this song. Sooooooo many hits they have Omg what a rabbit hole. I Want a New Drug, Power of Love from Back to the Future, Heart of Rock and Roll, Stuck with You, If This Is It................. etc etc.
One of the best shows I ever attended was Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers with Steve Winwood as opening act. Steve played all his most famous songs for us that night. He's amazing.
Jamel- check out “ I’m A Soul Man” by Sam and Dave and you’ll hear what I believe to be an influence on Steve. Also “ Shotgun” by Junior Walker and the Allstars. Soul classics.
The Memphis Horns, Andrew Love (sax) and Wayne Jackson (trumpet), on here and Sam and Dave hits. You've got a great ear and came to the right place. Both are gone now but still legends.
This song reminds me of being a lil girl dancing in the kitchen with my Momma and Daddy RIP.....such great memories to these old 80s tunes...I'm glad you enjoyed it he's one of my favorite artists...he's a very talented musician as well as a singer.. please try his whole albums... there's a few,songs back in the high life again, Higher love with Chaka Khan,my lady!! Love her!! And lots more! Update, just seen you have already became a fan!! ❤️❤️ Music is the universal language....
I love your explanation of how you listen to music. I grew up in the late 70s and revisiting some of the music I thought was just ok, with your attitude, brings me to a level of appreciation for what I’m hearing as a person in my 50s, rather than a teenager. Thanks for everything you do!
I love your comments that you bring in your videos. Whether it be a personal perspective or just telling how much you like a song and why, it makes this more like friends getting together for music, other than just a reaction.
I'm chair-dancing! This is like Motown, Blues and Pop had a baby. I've always loved this song - if you can't get up and move with this one, you just can't.
my favorite Steve Winwood recording---the most danceable song ever!!!! Don't know how anyone could sit still while listening to this! This song helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life.
I've been known to pull over on the highway, turn the tunes up and get out and dance on the side of the road!!! I love Steve's voice!!! I grew up wqith the fabulous, best ever music - the 60's!!! Back when it was sheer raw talent, not al the dancers and fluff, no synthesized crap.
Yes! Got to roll with it. Don't shut down or close yourself off from this world. The next person you meet or the next adventure might lead you to the best thing so far. Be open to joy!
Ha Ha Jamel. Judging by the frequency of your visits to Steve Winwood's artistry you've become a Superman of his. He is one of the greatest in my opinion. Thanks for the great videos and the music you promote and possibly introduce to the You Tube community. Keep on!

Ought to do some Roxy Musix next. Maybe Avalon or Jealous Guy
Essential music to brush up on! 🎸🎸🎸
Jamel: Here is a 2020 socially distance Steve Winwood- still Rocking out Gimme Some Lovin....th-cam.com/video/rpkqTLR3OD8/w-d-xo.html
We danced to this a lot back in the day when our hips and knees worked! Love it!
XD
Thought the same thing !
Amen brother.
LOL Truth!!
Neither of mine work anymore! LOL!
Steve Winwood is one of the gods of Rock n' Roll. So, everything he does is great. lol
Amen to that brother!!! ✌️💗😊
Steve still sounds the same but he looks like a wise australian/british grandfather with specracles now...
Well said fellow Anthony :)
Yes,and not many can say they sound the same as when they were teenagers this one,does.
@@julieraymond482 Not many, young or old, can say they ever sounded like Winwood. And yes, he still can bring it.
For some of us more "senior" watchers - Back when this song first came out, one of the Philly DJs referred to Steve Winwood as the "illegitimate son of Sam and Dave!" Ha-ha!
Glad your next line was and Dave. Son of Sam got a bad vibe huh? Just kidding how ya getting on with these golden years? Senior 1 egg instead of 2 and 2 strips of bacon instead of 3 yeah that's a senior discount you bet. Have a wonderful day hang in there we aren't dead or senile yet and I've got the papers to prove it. Haha
Earlier people said he sounded like Ray Charles; he did.
@@roncarpenter7240 He has a different way of singing than Ray Charles... to me, anyway. I like his voice better.
@@roncarpenter7240 Yep; he was called "the White Ray Charles" back in the 1960's when he was still a Teenager with Spencer Davis Group
"While You See A Chance" is Steve Winwoods masterpiece... IMO...
Absolutely Great song...!
"Mandolin Rain" ~ Bruce Hornsby is another.
Love this toon
Yes!!!!!!
One of my favorite tunes! Jamel, you are great man! So much fun to see you reacting to these tunes. Reminds me of when i went off to school and my buds taught me about Steely Dan and Led Zeppelin. And I taught them about Average White Band and New Orleans music. Keep em coming!
Here's a few to consider.
The Meters (aka The Neville Brothers)
album: Rejuvenation
song: People Say (New Orleans funk)
song: Hey Pocky Way (New Orleans dancin in the street music)
Jeff Beck
album: blow by blow
song: Cause we've ended as lovers (you GOT to hear this!)
All Led Zeppelin is good, but do
album: houses of the holy
song: The Crunge (Led Zep tribute to James Brown)
All Steely Dan is good, but do
album: The Nightfly
song: IGY
album: katy lied
song: Chain Lightning
Love ya man!! Peace!
Elliot
Just one of many songs great sings by Steve Winwood.
Huge hit when he made his comeback.
Yep, I think it was the most played song of the year when Casey Kasem did his year end Billboard review
they actually may just come back with back in the High Life they put it back on the charts with a bunch of great songs like higher Love Freedom over spill the title track.
then he continued on going down with roll with it
@@courtnayzeitler4854 Mama said to like your comment.
@@courtnayzeitler4854 well at the time it was sort of a comeback form cuz you know after traffic he had those into the early 80s with Valerie ark of a diver but then he kind of faded out for a little bit off of the pop scene he was doing some more traffic stuff and more jamming..

@@truckerkevthepaidtourist a four year absence from the charts is hardly a comeback, imho.
Been waiting for this one since you started doing Steve Winwood. His tribute to Junior Walker and the All Stars.
And we could use some Junior Walker about now. Shotgun? How Sweet It Is?
WHAT WOULD IT TAKE? JUNIOR SAID
@@bobbrown5951 Road Runner!

Steve Winwood is an English musician, singer, songwriter and multi instrumentalist, genre blue eyed soul
Great comeback song in the 80's. He's been going from the 60's to now.. Roll on!
Why do people consider this a comeback song? Only two years earlier, he had hits like Higher Love, The Finer Things, and Back in the High Life. Four years before that, Valerie was a hit.
Indeed
Steve Winwood" Arc of a Driver"
His best song imho
I agree and the organ intro to When You See A Chance is glorious
Arc of a Diver. Yep, lovely song
Effortlessly 💕
@@beachbunny7256 i love that song. I try to gaze up because with you I'm stronger. Great lyrics in that song.
We could do Winwood tracks all day. Thank you.
Peace to all, and let the music play!
I love this song! So much soul. This is another one in my favorite playlist. This video won all kinds of awards at the MTV Music awards that year.
Directed by David Fincher 🏆
...and Steve Winwood is a brother who would dance!! This is a jam too. Love him!!
Love some blue eyed soul from Winwood!
And ya know dat!!!!
I love blue eyed soul!
Now it's time for "Don't you know what the night can do" by Steve Winwood
Great song, very soulful vocals from Steve. Hearts on Fire is good too.
Great one!!
I'm guessing that Steve Winwood was pretty popular in the US?
Huge! 😊
Uhhhh, yeah....
@@Nan-1017 Thought so. See him beeing requested a lot!
@@greenhometony I got it, and also understand your reaction. In Europe, Robbie Williams was huge, for example. The more reason to listen more Steve Winwood.
@Michael Pullins Thank you. 🙏
Just a suggestion... This song is excellent to hear while cleaning your house. You're done quick!
Yeah. I remember running the vacuum to it many times!
Facts!
Omg so true
This was one of my Mom’s favorite songs back in the 80’s. Fittingly, her name was Valerie. RIP Mom ❤️
I hope you know you're a leader in resurrecting older hit music. Not only do these other people try to do what you do, but they follow your songs. You are a leader.
Thank you, Jamel - I love your appreciation of Steve Winwood's talent. He's special, and I hope that through you, more people are finding out about him.
Gotta again recommend the best Steve Winwood song While You See a Chance

@Donna Dawson super talented for sure!! I always assume they’re taller than me. Which is weird but they are larger than life. 💯
Although it was 32 years ago, I am 5'7 and he was shorter than me or it seemed he was. Of course he was with his then pregnant wife and she is like 6'5.

Great song by brotha Steve 🎧🎶very soulful!
One of my favorite Winwood songs. If you don’t like it, just Roll With It!! Keep up the great work, Jamel!!
"You'd better be dancing"
Just wait a second you'll see
Oh, there’s more. For something sultry, my favorite is “Don’t You Know What the Night Can Do”
I'd love to see a reaction to this song as well.
I'd like to see him react to I Want Your Sex and Wicked Game
That's one of those songs that's truly just real life...hard times hit everyone, just hang on and roll with it until the good times come back around because they will.
Preach brother. Glad your channel is around in 2020! Raises my spirits to watch your reviews. Feels like you’re my friend even!
“While you See a Chance” by Steve Winwood!!
SO GOOD!!!!
I love Steve Winwood. I've seen him live and every show was incredible.
Love the layed brass section & the pop-click rythm section.
Bonus info; when you reacted to Prince with Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne doing "While my guitar gently weeps", it was the very talented Steve Winwood on the keys in the back..
😳
This is old folks music...back in the day. Those Juke Joints down in Alabama....black/white folks geeting together...and rollin'. Cheap wiskey,,,no air conditioning...sweat.

It's like an "OLD STYLE JUKE JOINT"! LIKE WHEN YOU WOULD DANCE & JUST FEEL THE "RHYTHM & MUSIC" FLOW THUR YOU!!!
There is no way I can sit still when this song is on. You have to move, you have to clap! Love me some Steve!
When I'm listening to tunes on TH-cam, I'm almost always doing something else at the same time so I don't usually watch the video.

Listened to this every morning on my way to school back in the late 80's. The groove is too much!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this song and Steve Winwood! Has so much SOUL!
Two great Winwood songs: While You See A Chance, and Arc of Diver - please react to these!
Winwood literally has 50 or more classics, all great!
Sax and music goes together like peanut butter and chocolate!
...or nutella 😎
Imma dancing and singing making cup of coffee 😁
Love this one 👍 thank you for reacting to it!! Arc of Diver should be next, such a good tune
Absolutely Great song...!
"Mandolin Rain" ~ Bruce Hornsby is another.
Yes! Bruce Hornsby is a fabulous pianist. Sunflower Cat, Sneaking Up on Boo Radley... love them!
Hey Jamel, Please react to _"THE FINER THINGS"_ also by *Steve Winwood* , such an underrated song but feel you'll vibe with it 100 as it has a real groove to it - Love Ya Work :).

And another song that’s underrated is While you See a Chance. Love that song, brings back such beautiful memories:)
Great song, great suggestion!
Been asking him to react to The Finer Things forever! We are not on his patreon! I guess
I'll throw in for FINER THINGS as well. great song. I love Arc of a Diver too
All of the songs in this thread are great suggestions. You can't really go wrong with Steve Winwood.

Steve winwood is one of the best! Brings back great memories!
Steve Winwood said his first visit to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival was the inspiration for this song and visit. Makes perfect sense to me.
Great voice Another award winner Steve Winwood rock the house he did.
Check out Aretha Franklin "Freeway of Love"-- same time period of this, and yeah, you'll be dancing.
i'm so glad you discovered "brother" Winwood lots of great music
Now you know the magic of Steve Windwood. I was a kid in the 60s. I was a music lover at a young age. From the Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith and as a solo act, Steven Windwood is a true talent.
My fave steve winwood solo track. Master of music.
Check out.. Booker T and the MG's.. 1962.. Green Onions
One of hendrix's favorites.
Blind Faith In the Presence of The Lord It's chicken soup for the soul.
Also "Sea of Joy" fantastic Steve Winwood vocals.
Every song on the album is great. I love Well All Right.
@@loosilu right you are. Rock’s first super group put out a kick ass album.
@@darkmagus64 What an album!!!
@@loosilu pretty amazing for a first try. I also love Steve Windwood’s work with Traffic.
What's not to love about Stevie's unbelievable body of work, from his teens to whenever he 's done, if ever, tho' I hope the day never comes.
Love this jam brother 💗. We feeling this great music 🎶😊
Huey Lewis and the News!!! What a voice. Start with Hip To Be Square if you liked this song. Sooooooo many hits they have Omg what a rabbit hole. I Want a New Drug, Power of Love from Back to the Future, Heart of Rock and Roll, Stuck with You, If This Is It................. etc etc.
This guy here is a great musical legend on our planet earth respect for this mans music and great life
One of the best shows I ever attended was Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers with Steve Winwood as opening act. Steve played all his most famous songs for us that night. He's amazing.
Jonny Lang..."Lie to Me", Jeff Healy..."I Think I Love You Too Much"...Kenny Wayne Shepherd..."Blue on Black"
OMG....took me back to our local saturday night dances... best of the 60's.
Hendrix wanted so badly to do guitar work with Steve Winwood, he was shocked when he was told hell yeah he would work with him easy.
Reminds me of a dance I had with a lady from Louisiana at a dance in Georgia. Whoo! I'm from Louisiana. 😀
Jamel- check out “ I’m A Soul Man” by Sam and Dave and you’ll hear what I believe to be an influence on Steve. Also “ Shotgun” by Junior Walker and the Allstars. Soul classics.
The Memphis Horns, Andrew Love (sax) and Wayne Jackson (trumpet), on here and Sam and Dave hits. You've got a great ear and came to the right place. Both are gone now but still legends.

His "arc of a diver" album...he played every instrument on every song. He produced it,mixed it,engineered it,! Now that's impressive ⭐
Thanks Jamel for bringing me back to Steve, it's been too long! Talent just flows from him! AWESOME!
I love your comments that you bring in your videos. Whether it be a personal perspective or just telling how much you like a song and why, it makes this more like friends getting together for music, other than just a reaction.

While you see a chance by Steve Winwood thank you
I can never listen to this too much!!😆😆....the drummer's bringing his stick down onto that snare from above his head!!
And I think it's a homage to "Soul Train" dance line. Catchy as hell, love the brass.
Yes! Got to roll with it. Don't shut down or close yourself off from this world. The next person you meet or the next adventure might lead you to the best thing so far. Be open to joy!
"Freedom Overspill", "The Finer Things," and "Holding On."
