Please consider checking out _That Song_ by Big Wreck. th-cam.com/video/4qsOcYIDtE4/w-d-xo.html That’s the link to the original, full-length (about 5:05), album version, which is the best one. I wouldn’t bother bother with the 4:11 version-that’s a single version, shortened for mainstream radio and a video, and it cuts out the heart of the original. You seem to really enjoy thoughtful, melodic tunes, so I think this would be right up your alley. Thanks for your consideration.
Another Jackson Browne song that's a favorite 'Here Comes Those Tears Again ' and Bonnie Raitt sings in background: th-cam.com/video/V_5UuHsAoaI/w-d-xo.html
Since you're in the singer/songwriter zone. James Taylor's Fire and Rain, Your Smiling Face, Mexico, Country Road, are guaranteed to turn you on. Would love to see your reaction.
Fast Times at Ridgemont High...Jennifer Jason Leigh...dugout scene LOL. Damone (was not in this scene I know....his was in the pool changing room) is one of the funniest 80s movie characters....”ya don’t just walk up to her....ya kinda move”
Frey ... and it was a straight co-write - neither "helped" the other ... They both recorded it; the Eagles pushed theirs, Jackson Browne made it with "Doctor, My Eyes," instead ... The same happened for Jackson with "These Days," a hit for Gregg Allman that Jackson wrote for Gregg to sing when they were roommates before anyone heard of either of them ...
Nice history, they were all part of the Troubadour music scene along with J D Souther, Linda Ronstadt and a who's who laundry list of our finest singer songwriters and groups to date.
'Take it easy on me" is a great song, in fact there are so many Eagles songs that are amazing. You've probably heard them. You should dive down that rabbit hole. 👍🏼
A great story Jackson told at one of his many concerts I attended. He laughed and said "only Frey could right the line about the girl 'slowing down to get a look at me'".
Yeah man, that one is a home run shot. I was a new fan when it came out and he outdid all the others I’d heard. Saw him play in 77’ -a golden boy in his prime on a perfect California day !
The line, “I’m gonna walk up to her, gonna talk to her tonight.” If that doesn’t take you back to those sweet memories of being young and having a crush on some pretty little babe, I don’t know what would.
Jackson Browne and Daryl Hannah were together for years. My favorite of his "Tender is the Night." Daryl Hannah is in the video and the song has some of the most haunting lyrics I've ever heard. You should definitely check that one out.
Yay! Jackson Browne. Truly a talented man. Please listen to 'Before the Deluge..' It's such an epic song that has more relevance as years go by. PLEASE!
A really good 80s song is Dan Hartman "I Can Dream About You" from the movie Streets Of Fire. Dan was the bass player in the Edgar Winter group and wrote the song "Free Ride" and played on Rick Derringers "Rock n Roll Hoochie Coo"
"When you see through love's illusion, there lies the danger." "And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool." The lyrics of "Fountain of Sorrow" are amazing!
Everyone has their own suggestions, and I'm no different. While you're running down the Jackson Browne road, I strongly recommend "The Load Out / Stay," celebrating both the unsung heroes of tours - the roadies - as well as talking about the loneliness of a life on the road. The song(s) basically tell how the happiest times for a touring musician are those moments on stage, when they get the energy from the crowd. The rest is just survived to get to that next stage in the next town somewhere down the road: th-cam.com/video/scsJZ67ssDY/w-d-xo.html
I’m listening as I type because 🎶🎧 I know this is a great classic with such meaningful lyrics by JB. Love Love this song. Also Jamel you are the perfect reactor to great songs because 1. You never heard these songs and 2. You have such a love for music period. I can always tell when a song strikes a chord with you
The song is the typical scenario of the gorgeous girl who everybody thinks is taken but confided to friends that she HAS to be somebody’s baby. Excellent use of the same line for two different meanings.
Definitely agree with request for “Before the Deluge” & would add “Fountain of Sorrow.” And a shout-out to David Lindley & the west coast musicians who made JB’s music so great.
Jamel - I grew up with much of your 60/70s music and I got to tell you how much I enjoy your moves, reactions, as you feel the music. Many of your viewers I’m sure are doing inside what you’re doing physically. Makes the tunes exciting all over. You’re a gift- thanks for doing your thing. I’m a fan.
So glad to see you loving J.B. The most beautiful song of ALL TIME...For a Dancer. Sums up life, love and the struggle for meaning that all humans go through.
This song brings tears to my eyes cause it makes me think of my gorgeous 23 yr old daughter. She IS Somebody's Baby and she has that light in her eyes and she is a ray of Sunshine!! And when she went off to the big city to go to college, I cried for DAYS! Just WAIT till you guys get a baby girl Jamal! :)
I love Jackson Browne and this song is a pop masterpiece. To anyone else feeling like the protagonist in the song, I've got a story for you. A few years ago, I was in another state for a work contract and went out to a Meetup event at a local bar. I was just there to make some friends in the area, but then this absolutely gorgeous woman walked in, and I had the exact same thoughts the guy in the song is having. Yet, despite my usual introversion, my lack of muscle, and my subpar hair, I walked right up and started talking to her. Wasn't long before we were making out in her car. For the brief time I was in that city, she was my baby. Just go for it, my dudes. Rejection is not a big deal and you've got nothing to lose.
My husband and I went to see him in 1995 at the Civic Center in Des Moines , Iowa we sat in the 2nd row right in the middle my husband was getting a little mad, because he looked at me through the whole song. I loved every second of it. Just saying!
Jackson is an incredible & prolific songwriter & singer. His lyrics are always filled with sadness, hope & love. So Beautiful! I agree with the other suggestions of "Running on Empty" & "The Pretender". Also please listen to "Before the Deluge". That particular song has a very significant message for all of us & our planet. "The Barricades of Heaven" is another great one. Thanks!
Followed Jackson for over 40 years..The Pretender being my fav album..each track is superb..Bright Baby Blues..The Fuse..Here come those Tears again....give them a spot on the show you won’t be disappointed
If you can check out the live version of Running On Empty. You'll see a string wizard named Dave Lindley on slide & pedal steel guitar. He toured with Jackson quite a few times. He's an amazing musician.
CarolynJane Sutton A typical teen film of the time (ie a bit raunchy), a classic film from 1982 with a bunch of actors that weren’t yet stars. Sean Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Judge Reinhold, and Forest Whitaker, with small background parts played by Nic Cage (as Coppola), Anthony Edwards, and Eric Stoltz. th-cam.com/video/vzva_I8WPAg/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for loving music in all its forms and sharing its joy. Jackson Browne is a poet and writer in the form of a musician and puts it all together so beautifully and meaningfully.
You hit the nail on the head Jamel. This song was so about the funk. All these years later, bad day just put it on. Sure to turn your head around and get cha to stepping. I know he said it just happened. Wonder f he knew was going to following him around for so many years. You hear this song and it is instant good mood. The funk is so damn fun. Was a blast to see him do it n person. Damn t holds up well with many generations. Most especially your review had me in stitches. Lord you are just too damn fun. Certainly am a follower for life. Keep on keeping on. So much happiness you spread. Thank you to Jackson for still performing this song over and over again for too many years to mention. It takes us all to our happy place. We need that more than ever right now. Same goes for James. First you get your shot in the arm then you go to their concert and get a real shot in the arm. Love the classics by James. You Jamel, too fun to listen to!!!!!!!!!! Many thanks
Jamel , you like songs that tell stories. Listen to The Load Out / Stay , it's his tribute to his road crew & his appreciation for all they do for him. I think you will enjoy it. As well as Tender Is The Night & The Pretender.
"I saw her talking to her friend when she thought nobody else was around--She said "I've got to be somebody's baby, I must be somebody's baby"...Jamel, she is longing for someone to be with! I think you missed that part because you were reacting. Browne often puts in a subtle twist like that.
The writer of this song originally wanted Hall and Oats to do this song but they already had their album full, so Jackson did it and I must say he did one hell of a job on this song.
Jamel you have so much joy when you are digging a song, it makes me hear it for the first time! Jackson Browne shared this on his social media today , so I must not be the only one who thinks that! keep on Jamel! And Jackson 🙌✨💫⭐️🤩😎 one of my favorite musicians of all time, keep it up brother!
Glad you liked it, Jamel. JB is one of my very favorites. So talented. This was just a classic feel good song. Many of his other best songs take you on a ride as they are both lyrically heady and thought-provoking while musically engaging. He's a gem.
I will always remember this song from fast times at ridgemont high. That and the cars "moving in stereo". I will never forget phoebe cates shining moment.
I always love the slap-pop sound of the bass that comes in at around 2:32! Great music! Great lyrics! Great song! Great artist! Great channel! Thank you, Jamel!
I always enjoy your reactions!! You have the kindest eyes! Thank you for the great music and putting a smile on my face! I'd think you'd love the band, "America". Incredible harmonizing! "Horse with No name", "Tin Man", "Ventura Highway". Enjoy!🥰🎈🕊
I really like this song but I wouldn't call it Jackson Browne music. He is usually much more cerebral than this...but it sounds Great! Check out the live(ish) video.
@@sarahdee374 good pop music. but he is so much deeper than this song. The Late for the Sky album is a conceptual gem. One of my desert island selections.
I liken it to George Harrison's "I got my mind set on you" Very disappointing, made me think he either had to fulfill a contract, or really needed the royalty.
yeah ,this is a single guys song ..lol I remember being a teenage in the late 80s /early nineties and a drummer in a band.sometimes going to the mall looking for the records stores .remember Record Bars and Camelot .lol seeing the young girls then in the food courts .thinking they must be with somebody! xoxo
Jamel, glad to see you discover the talent of Jackson Browne. You already highlighted his first big hit DOCTOR MY EYES, my favorite, other hits of his are, THAT GIRL COULD SING, great upbeat sound and RUNNING ON EMPTY.

Another Jackson Browne song that's a favorite 'Here Comes Those Tears Again ' and Bonnie Raitt sings in background: th-cam.com/video/V_5UuHsAoaI/w-d-xo.html
Since you're in the singer/songwriter zone. James Taylor's Fire and Rain, Your Smiling Face, Mexico, Country Road, are guaranteed to turn you on. Would love to see your reaction.
Can’t hear this song without thinking of the movie Fast times at Ridgemount high.
Five more payments,an that baby is ALL MINE.
Every time JJL got laid.
All I can say is...
Fast Times At Ridgemont High!!!
That's exactly what I was going to say.
Fast Times at Ridgemont High...Jennifer Jason Leigh...dugout scene LOL. Damone (was not in this scene I know....his was in the pool changing room) is one of the funniest 80s movie characters....”ya don’t just walk up to her....ya kinda move”
I can't listen to this song without thinking of "Fast Times." What a masterful use of an incredible song in a seminal movie.
"Seminal", I see what you did there!
Thinking the same thing !
werd
Yup, every time straight to Fast Times in my head
Yup, such an iconic 80's scene from a great movie.
Jamel, You'll like his "Running On Empty" "Tender Is the Night" "The Pretender"
@surlechapeau His Album 'Running on Empty' is one of my all time favourite albums.
And Rosie!!!
"Running on Empty" my favorite.
"I'm the cat" and "Sky blue and black" as well
Tender! Tender is the 🌙 night. Yes!!!!
I adore that look he gives about 10 seconds in, like "OK you guys got me, this is going to be another great one".
He helped Glenn Frye write the first Eagles song "Take it easy". He is a great singer and I love his music.
Frey ... and it was a straight co-write - neither "helped" the other ... They both recorded it; the Eagles pushed theirs, Jackson Browne made it with "Doctor, My Eyes," instead ... The same happened for Jackson with "These Days," a hit for Gregg Allman that Jackson wrote for Gregg to sing when they were roommates before anyone heard of either of them ...

'Take it easy on me" is a great song, in fact there are so many Eagles songs that are amazing. You've probably heard them. You should dive down that rabbit hole. 👍🏼
Regardless, his relationship with David Geffen was always better so he got paid.
A great story Jackson told at one of his many concerts I attended. He laughed and said "only Frey could right the line about the girl 'slowing down to get a look at me'".
One more essential Jackson Brown song you must do next is ‘Running on Empty’, if you don’t already know that one.
One of my favorite Jackson Browne songs. I like the load out song also.
Yes!
Good song!
Absolutely, Running on Empty as my favorite song from Jackson Browne.
Yeah man, that one is a home run shot. I was a new fan when it came out and he outdid all the others I’d heard. Saw him play in 77’ -a golden boy in his prime on a perfect California day !
“The Pretender” is another great hit of JB’s. It was in the movie “Mr. Holland’s Opus.”
Great song and movie!!!
The Pretender or, even better, "Here Come Those Tears Again".
Well then Lovers Concerto from Mr. Holland's Opus should be on the list too
Forgot how good this song was. 👍
Joe Jackson - Is She Really Going Out With Him.
So many good ones from Joe. I love You Can't Get What You Want (Til You Know What You Want). Amazing, especially those horns.
The absolute flip side of this song, LOL
"Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street...."
I never realized how similar these 2 songs are. Weird
Great song
"Tender Is The Night" "Running On Empty" "Load Out/Stay" "These Days"
In the Shape of a Heart
Nick Lawyers in Love
@David B love all his songs but Shape of a Heart is my favorite
The line, “I’m gonna walk up to her, gonna talk to her tonight.” If that doesn’t take you back to those sweet memories of being young and having a crush on some pretty little babe, I don’t know what would.
This song was nostalgic when it made it big on the Billboard Hot 100 in 82.
I love the part "I try to shut my eyes, but I can't get her out of my sight"
Jackson Browne and Daryl Hannah were together for years. My favorite of his "Tender is the Night." Daryl Hannah is in the video and the song has some of the most haunting lyrics I've ever heard. You should definitely check that one out.
Great, great song.
She dumped him cause he was an abuser
Daryl Hannah was also in the video for You’re a Friend of Mine with Clarence Clemons.
Ha, I forgot all about Daryl Hannah. She was all the rage for quite awhile.
@@amyk9175 I've been requesting that song for months. It's a cute song.
Yay! Jackson Browne. Truly a talented man. Please listen to 'Before the Deluge..' It's such an epic song that has more relevance as years go by. PLEASE!
That whole album was fantastic
I heard this song while walking around a store yesterday. I was dancing and singing up and down the aisles! 😄
Jeaninia, one simply must! 💃🏽
Next Jackson Browne song MUST be "Running On Empty" .. No ifs or buts, Jamel .. Make it happen, brother !
Yes sir!!!
After that, he should react to "The Load Out/Stay"
Jamel you are on a roll today and I'm loving every minute! Foreigner, Jackson Browne.... Such good music! I am singing my heart out!
Ahhhh, memories of Fast Times At Ridgemont High, that movie encapsulated my high school years pretty closely 💜
👍 except we didn't get pizza delivered 😁
@@bethshadid2087 no, Mr Pizza Guy was definitely not allowed on campus! 😂
@@bethshadid2087 just learnin about Cuba and havin some food
@Bryan Robinson 81 for me, which is when it was filmed so tied in perfectly 👌🏼
Me too! I graduated in '82
I could type pages about "Fast Times at Ridgmont High", but I won't.
Yep.... I exactly what you're saying. If you start typing, you'll be here all day or longer.
This song took me there,for sure.
For sure. That movie has phenomenal soundtrack.
Oh yeah, Fast Times can’t be beat! Fantastic soundtrack. Anybody need Cheap Trick tickets?
@@wendywallace4614 that's kid's stuff 😏
“That Girl Could Sing”! One of JB’s very best!
Agree.
You are absolutely right that's a fantastic song
He's in the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame 2004 AND the Songwriters Hall of Fame 2007. C'mon now!!!!
Jackson Browne is an amazing artist. You need to react to The Load Out/Stay from Running on Empty, you will not be disappointed
Darren Hoey Can’t agree with this enough!
Yes, Yes! There is a great video of a live 1978 BBC performance on TH-cam.
The Load Out/Stay is one/two of my all time favorite songs!
A really good 80s song is Dan Hartman "I Can Dream About You" from the movie Streets Of Fire. Dan was the bass player in the Edgar Winter group and wrote the song "Free Ride" and played on Rick Derringers "Rock n Roll Hoochie Coo"
I love me some Jackson Browne! I recommend listening to his "Fountain of Sorrow." Love that song!
Calamity Jack yes yes yes!
Yes! 💜💔💜
"When you see through love's illusion, there lies the danger."
"And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool."
The lyrics of "Fountain of Sorrow" are amazing!
Yes, it's a beautiful one! I also love the music and lyrics to "These Days." Jackson is an amazing songwriter!
Everyone has their own suggestions, and I'm no different. While you're running down the Jackson Browne road, I strongly recommend "The Load Out / Stay," celebrating both the unsung heroes of tours - the roadies - as well as talking about the loneliness of a life on the road. The song(s) basically tell how the happiest times for a touring musician are those moments on stage, when they get the energy from the crowd. The rest is just survived to get to that next stage in the next town somewhere down the road:
th-cam.com/video/scsJZ67ssDY/w-d-xo.html
@Bad Wolf Media I agree with you that "The Load Out / Stay"is a great song.
My absolute fav!!
"Tender Is the Night" "The Pretender"
I second the motion for these Jackson Browne songs
Linda Paloma...haunting!!!
I’m listening as I type because 🎶🎧 I know this is a great classic with such meaningful lyrics by JB. Love Love this song. Also Jamel you are the perfect reactor to great songs because 1. You never heard these songs and 2. You have such a love for music period. I can always tell when a song strikes a chord with you
The two songs that are essential listens from Jackson Browne are
"Running on Empty" and
"The Load Out/Stay"
Love, love, love Jackson Browne. My favorite: Rock Me On The Water.
SUCH a beautiful song and SUCH a beautiful reaction and SUCH a beautiful channel!
Love this song! 1982 in the house. I was in high school 9th grade. Its also featured in Fast times at Ridgemont high 😀
“I know she ain’t single, hell no! Not looking that good” 🤣🤣🤣
I love how memories are tied to music. Thanks!
The song is the typical scenario of the gorgeous girl who everybody thinks is taken but confided to friends that she HAS to be somebody’s baby. Excellent use of the same line for two different meanings.
Definitely agree with request for “Before the Deluge” & would add “Fountain of Sorrow.” And a shout-out to David Lindley & the west coast musicians who made JB’s music so great.

So glad to see you loving J.B. The most beautiful song of ALL TIME...For a Dancer. Sums up life, love and the struggle for meaning that all humans go through.
"You can't fix this car, Spicoli"
"My dad,is a TV repairman, he has an ultimate set of tools...."
Wouldn't that make it... Our time?
Lmfao
This song brings tears to my eyes cause it makes me think of my gorgeous 23 yr old daughter. She IS Somebody's Baby and she has that light in her eyes and she is a ray of Sunshine!! And when she went off to the big city to go to college, I cried for DAYS! Just WAIT till you guys get a baby girl Jamal! :)
Jackson Brownes "The Pretender".... "The Late Show"..."Your Bright Baby Blues"....All must listens...some of the best song writing ever. Seriously.
I love Jackson Browne and this song is a pop masterpiece. To anyone else feeling like the protagonist in the song, I've got a story for you.
A few years ago, I was in another state for a work contract and went out to a Meetup event at a local bar. I was just there to make some friends in the area, but then this absolutely gorgeous woman walked in, and I had the exact same thoughts the guy in the song is having. Yet, despite my usual introversion, my lack of muscle, and my subpar hair, I walked right up and started talking to her. Wasn't long before we were making out in her car. For the brief time I was in that city, she was my baby.
Just go for it, my dudes. Rejection is not a big deal and you've got nothing to lose.
My husband and I went to see him in 1995 at the Civic Center in Des Moines , Iowa we sat in the 2nd row right in the middle my husband was getting a little mad, because he looked at me through the whole song. I loved every second of it. Just saying!
So many choices with this artist. Check out "Shape of a Heart", "Call it a Loan", "Running On Empty", so many Jamel..Great stuff dude!
Call It A Loan and Hold on Hold out are my favorites.
Great call on "Shape Of A Heart". Probably doesn't get the recognition it deserves.
This is my favorite Jackson Browne song!
Gina T mine too😎👍🏻
Probably because it's easy to digest and lacks any substance. It's annoying that people request a bad song from a great artist.
This is one of those songs that helped to define a generation. Love his music. Jackson Browne was one of the best.
First time I heard this was "Fast Times At Ridgemont High". Really takes me back.
Jackson is an incredible & prolific songwriter & singer. His lyrics are always filled with sadness, hope & love. So Beautiful! I agree with the other suggestions of "Running on Empty" & "The Pretender". Also please listen to "Before the Deluge". That particular song has a very significant message for all of us & our planet. "The Barricades of Heaven" is another great one. Thanks!
Gotta do the load out / stay now
Followed Jackson for over 40 years..The Pretender being my fav album..each track is superb..Bright Baby Blues..The Fuse..Here come those Tears again....give them a spot on the show you won’t be disappointed
I remember when this song was released .. Great memories..
Fast Times at Ridgemont High Soundtrack ..
I still love this song. It is one of those songs that I can never get sick of hearing it.
Great song! Great channel! I'm gonna request Greg Kihn Band's 'The Breakup Song' 'cause they don't write them like that anymore.
Jackson has made some of the most prolific music over his life time,no doubt.
If you can check out the live version of Running On Empty. You'll see a string wizard named Dave Lindley on slide & pedal steel guitar. He toured with Jackson quite a few times. He's an amazing musician.
Fast Times at Ridgemont High! One of my favorite movies ever!
The Load Out/Stay, The Pretender, Running on Empty
Jamel TY for what you do. You put a smile on my face every day. You really will like the band 'America' GREAT library of songs.
Who else can’t help but think of “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” when they hear this song? 🙋🏻♀️
Sorry, never seen it! I just think of seeing Jackson Browne live, two night running, in London.
CarolynJane Sutton A typical teen film of the time (ie a bit raunchy), a classic film from 1982 with a bunch of actors that weren’t yet stars. Sean Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Judge Reinhold, and Forest Whitaker, with small background parts played by Nic Cage (as Coppola), Anthony Edwards, and Eric Stoltz.
th-cam.com/video/vzva_I8WPAg/w-d-xo.html
Jackson Browne has the unique gift of writing and performing timeless songs that are melancholy yet uplifting.
I always think of Fast Times at Ridgemont High when I hear this song..Outstanding movie and soundtrack..
Thank you for loving music in all its forms and sharing its joy. Jackson Browne is a poet and writer in the form of a musician and puts it all together so beautifully and meaningfully.
When you get the chance you need to react to Huey Lewis and the news.
I second that!!!!
Yep
Hells yeah
ROWDY NATION18 nah. They’re fkn terrible
WTF Huey Lewis is absolutely hideous.
"You Love the Thunder" (live version), "Miles Away", "Tender is the Night", and the exquisite "Something Fine" are among my many Jackson Browne recs.
Please you must react to Jackson Browne the load out "stay".
You hit the nail on the head Jamel. This song was so about the funk. All these years later, bad day just put it on. Sure to turn your head around and get cha to stepping.

Yes!! All 3!!
This man knows how to make a video.
Honest reactions, enjoying every moment, and very respectful.
Very cool video from a cool guy
"Give me about 4 more drinks, and she's mine" ... 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Song was my soundtrack to all the wet dreams of my adolescence starring Phoebe Cates and Jennifer Jason Leigh
"I saw her talking to her friend when she thought nobody else was around--She said "I've got to be somebody's baby, I must be somebody's baby"...Jamel, she is longing for someone to be with! I think you missed that part because you were reacting. Browne often puts in a subtle twist like that.
The writer of this song originally wanted Hall and Oats to do this song but they already had their album full, so Jackson did it and I must say he did one hell of a job on this song.
Please!!
Sky Blue and Black!!!
Heavy-duty tune ✌️
In the Shape of a Heart, too
Both of those are amazing.....(Sky Blue & Black and In The Shape of a Heart). I also love I’m Alive
Jackson Browne "For a Dancer" From "Late For the Sky" So deep and meaningful.
Great song ,listen to “load out” a tribute to the roadies
Jamel you have so much joy when you are digging a song, it makes me hear it for the first time! Jackson Browne shared this on his social media today , so I must not be the only one who thinks that! keep on Jamel! And Jackson 🙌✨💫⭐️🤩😎 one of my favorite musicians of all time, keep it up brother!
Keep these reactions going Brotha Jamal
This is the only reaction channel I watch. I love his truly real reaction like he says he actually feels the music.
ROWDY NATION18 YESSSS and he definitely introduced me to some beautiful music I’ve never heard before
Glad you liked it, Jamel. JB is one of my very favorites. So talented. This was just a classic feel good song. Many of his other best songs take you on a ride as they are both lyrically heady and thought-provoking while musically engaging. He's a gem.
You should listen to "Afternoon Delight" by the Starlight Vocal Band Jackson Browne was one of the co-writers.
I will always remember this song from fast times at ridgemont high. That and the cars "moving in stereo". I will never forget phoebe cates shining moment.
For A Dancer, These Days and so many more....I won’t beg for more although I want to.....
Love this. Those were the days. Almost every group or singer was top notch. No other time like it in my life.
Listen to "You're a Friend of Mine" by Clarence Clemons and Jackson Browne.
Love Jackson Browne. Early childhood memories for me with him. Love this song! Love him.
Next up Cat Stevens Moonshadow or Barry Manilow could it be magic or James Taylor Fire and Rain thank me later
I always love the slap-pop sound of the bass that comes in at around 2:32! Great music! Great lyrics! Great song! Great artist! Great channel! Thank you, Jamel!
Try....
John Cafferty "On the Dark Side"
John Parr "Naughty Naughty" or "St Elmos Fire"
Pokes 98 St Emlos Fire encapsulates all that was HORRIBLE in 80s music. Literally one of the worst songs ever
Awe! You're so open minded to all genres of music.... 💖 Love your channel!!!!
I remember this from Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Jackson Browne : Your Bright Baby Blues, Sleeps Dark and Silent Gate, Here Come Those Tears Again and Love Needs A Heart.
So many!
Please do Running On Empty and The Pretender!
I always enjoy your reactions!! You have the kindest eyes! Thank you for the great music and putting a smile on my face! I'd think you'd love the band, "America". Incredible harmonizing! "Horse with No name", "Tin Man", "Ventura Highway". Enjoy!🥰🎈🕊
I really like this song but I wouldn't call it Jackson Browne music. He is usually much more cerebral than this...but it sounds Great! Check out the live(ish) video.
I agree, it's sort of an offering of fluffy ear candy. Nothing deep.
@@sarahdee374 good pop music. but he is so much deeper than this song. The Late for the Sky album is a conceptual gem. One of my desert island selections.
He's such a better songwriter than this. He must have been broke or something, or worried about being broke. Go back to Late for the Sky.
I liken it to George Harrison's "I got my mind set on you" Very disappointing, made me think he either had to fulfill a contract, or really needed the royalty.
I agree
Shape of a Heart is a really great song from Jackson Browne
yeah ,this is a single guys song ..lol I remember being a teenage in the late 80s /early nineties and a drummer in a band.sometimes going to the mall looking for the records stores .remember Record Bars and Camelot .lol seeing the young girls then in the food courts .thinking they must be with somebody! xoxo
I still have vinyl I bought at Record Bar in the 70s! 😂
Omg yes! i miss food courts with attached arcade and record stores!
Love that you dig jackson browne so much. One of my all time favs. Thanks for exposing him. Keep doin your thing. We're all listening!!
Thanks for that. Now do Running on empty". Then do Rick Springfield Jessie's Girl". Then do Journeys "Mother Father❤️
Or Rick Springfield Don't Talk to Strangers. Really neat chords in there.
It is SO FUN watching you listen to these songs for the first time, I just love it!
Fast Times, Dugout scene.
(no pun intended)
Jamel, glad to see you discover the talent of Jackson Browne. You already highlighted his first big hit DOCTOR MY EYES, my favorite, other hits of his are, THAT GIRL COULD SING, great upbeat sound and RUNNING ON EMPTY.
I’ll second and third the recommendations of “Running on Empty “ and “The Pretender” also “Lawyer’s in Love”
I forgot about Lawyers in Love! Good call!
As always you put a smile on people’s faces keep doing what you are doing brother the world needs more like you 🙏🏼
