One of the best! What I love the most about Bread is that they are clean; I do not mean that they are G rated, I mean the music, the lyrics, the presentation is as clean as a spring morning. So many good memories, and yes, I am so old, I remember hearing all of their songs as they were released on AM radio. Then I learned to play them on my guitar. Damn, things were so much simpler in the early 70s.
My favorite song bread ever did. Jimmy Griffin on lead vocals... So glad when I was a teenager a friend of mine allowed me to walk away with his mother's bread's greatest hits album... I didn't care that some people considered it to be pansy music I just love great song writing great production values, etc.
Beautiful..my first time hearing it as well. Much love to you and your family! Always stay safe and live in peace and love! I am loving your mature reactions! FINALLY...no young ones with no life experiences.
This is absolutely one of my favorite Bread songs. I love Jimmy Griffin’s lead vocals & acoustic guitar combined with David Gates beautiful back up vocals . I agree with you that the first half of the song the guy is just destroyed after a breakup and then the second half he’s angry about what she did. Great reaction!❤
One of my favorite Bread songs. Great selection Craig. Not one of their more famous big hits but a real beauty. It was written by James Griffen and Robb Royer , James was a great singer songwriter and had a marvelous voice. He was usually in the shadow of David Gates, but he was also a fantastic musician. I also love his song "You're the only one" RIP James. Great song Harri. 👍🔥😉🌏💟🕊️🙃
I remember this song I loved bread but my friends didn't so I had to sneak around to listan to them we were hippies and so mainly listan to real heavy stuff aloha ps I bet some of my friends were doing same as me
James Griffin had his own style of songs he wrote/performed with Bread. And he did great harmonies to David Gates' lead. Bread did a lot of fabulous uptempo numbers, including "Let Your Love Go," "Mother Freedom," "Down on My Knees," "Make It By Yourself," etc. Check that side of the group out. Brilliant musicians, arrangers, and songwriters.
You mentioned a couple of my favorites... MOTHER FREEDOM and DOWN ON MY KNEES! I've been a 'rocker' by preference, but Bread wrote some of the most beautiful love songs. And when they were in their salad days, I was head over heels for the girl next door.
I have an older sister who loved listening to Bread in the '70s. As a young child living under the same roof, I absorbed many of these songs as if through osmosis. Happy you're working your way through their hits, as it's sure bringing back some long forgotten memories. This one has always been a particular favorite of mine.
I started junior high in '71 and graduated high school in '77. I'll put those seven years of music up against anyone elses. We slowed danced to Bread at school dances and later at Victory Dances after Friday night football games in high school. So cool to see the music of my time still as popular today with the younger generation and new fans just discovering it. Love the Bread requests!
The keyboard player on this was Larry Knechtel, who was also the piano player on Simon And Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water. He actually wrote a track that James Griffin sings on the Guitar Man album titled Picture In Your Mind.
Lots of Bread reactions this month...anyone fancy some toast?...lol Seriously though this is a great request Craig. The brilliant vocals of David Gates shines again in this beautiful track. Thanks for the reaction on this Harri. Glad you're enjoying a group that was overlooked and underappreciated! Bread had its loyal fan base back in the day, but they never got big.
thank you for this song it reminds me of a couple that divorced when I was turning `18 that emotionally took me apart and this song reminds me of how I was feeling at the time
Please react "Remember When" by Color me Badd. Color me Badd was a RNB/Soul boyband that formed in 1985. They were awarded as the "Best R&B/Soul group" back in the early 90s. "Remember Me" was their last song produced before they were disbanded in 1998. They're one of the most underrated boyband but one of the greatest!
I really like their harmony! I’ve listened to them for more years than I can remember! Talking of harmony,there is a gospel group called the Gaither Vocal Band! You should listen to “The Hallelujah Band” by them. It’s on TH-cam! I think you will love their harmony!!
Reminds me of my Ex-Wife LOL C, mon return and destroy the little that is left of me FINISH what you've Begun. I used to sing a fair bit of Bread at a Wine Bar ( Piano Bar ) along with other songs from Elton John, easy-listening music
I'm sure you get a million recommendations every day but you really need to check out "Dismal day" and "London bridge" by Bread it's the 1st 2 tracks From their 1st album and it's 2 of the best tracks they ever did in my humble opinion... Keep up the great reactions I really appreciate it.
Hi Harri, I notice that you haven't done any Talk Talk yet. One of the greatest bands that this country has produced, and believe me when i say that this is no hyperbole! Starting out in the early '80s, they were marketed as a Duran Duran kind of band, and although their debut album was riven with synths, there was something more intelligent lurking behind the haunting voice of Mark Hollis. In '84, they brought in Produced Tim Friese-Green has a permanent member of the group. The second album was still predominantly synth based, but with an extended roster and the arrival of ethnic percussion, their live shows took on an organic feel, slowly leaving behind the cold limitations of their synth beginnings. 'The Colour Of Spring', their '86 release was when the true Talk Talk were born, and what an album it was. Eight tracks of remarkable beauty, with two songs pointing the way to something truly transcendent, the album was a big success, allowing EMI to grant them a decent budget to produce what they thought would be 'The Colour Of Spring (part 2)! What they received two years later was an uncategorizable blend of minimal jazz, with influences ranging from the milder work of Miles Davis, to the classical tropes of Satie and Debussy, all contained within a Post Rock atmosphere. To cut this short, they ventured further out with 91s 'Laughing Stock', an,,d then called it a day! Seven years later, mainman Mark Hollis released a self titled debut album and then removed himself from the music industry to be a better father to his two children. Talk Talk had taken on the might of the capitalist music industry, and come out the other end as heroes to many bands (hello Radiohead), who to this day don't quite have the balls to emulate Talk Talk's achievements. Now you know of this incredible band, and you decide to play them for your audience, i strongly recommend you begin with 'The Colour Of Spring' before moving on to the indescribable atmospheres of their final two epics. It's in your hands Harri, but to bypass this miracle in sound would be to misread the signposts and end up missing out on something we don't get anymore! Cheers and beautiful music.
Moon represents water that cleanses the dirt or washes away the soap represented by Saturn. Thys the baby boomers sometimes do tell a story of frustation, and expect the other party to do the unentanglement. Moon represents a baby and he yells at the adult caregiver to do the unentanglement.
If you really want to hear an incredible album, listen to the entire LP by James Griffin on Polydor Records titled "Breakin' up Is Easy. Not a bad track on it.
I have never heard this song by Bread. It must be a deep cut, but it sounds pleasant enough. Not my favorite, and I can see why it was never a hit, but it might grow on me.

ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG EVER WRITTEN.
Yes!
My kids ( 39 and 33 ) all grew up with bread and my grandkids are growing up to bread.
Sublime! I can't think of one of Bread's songs that I don't like. Their music is timeless.
I’m old so I completely remember this song & Bread was brilliant - harmonies are soo cool!✌🏻🎼🙋🏻♀️
I remember in 1972 a friend offered to make a tape of the best bread songs for me. There were 30 and not a bad one among them.
One of the best! What I love the most about Bread is that they are clean; I do not mean that they are G rated, I mean the music, the lyrics, the presentation is as clean as a spring morning.

Clean, Crisp, and Fresh like a lively Zesty Pasta Dish served with zesty yet sweet Moscato, the sun rays look amazing through the palm throngs 🌊 🍹🎸🎹

Just another great song by Bread. There are many more.

A great lost classic!

Probably my favourite Bread Song
I remember this song I loved bread but my friends didn't so I had to sneak around to listan to them we were hippies and so mainly listan to real heavy stuff aloha ps I bet some of my friends were doing same as me
One of my favorites! Thank you for being one of the few reactors to give it a chance. ❤
Thank you for bringing back some great memories
There's another song with a similar title, "Look What You've Done To me" by Boz Scaggs. Another beautiful song.
James Griffin had his own style of songs he wrote/performed with Bread. And he did great harmonies to David Gates' lead. Bread did a lot of fabulous uptempo numbers, including "Let Your Love Go," "Mother Freedom," "Down on My Knees," "Make It By Yourself," etc. Check that side of the group out.

You mentioned a couple of my favorites...
MOTHER FREEDOM and DOWN ON MY KNEES!
I've been a 'rocker' by preference, but Bread wrote some of the most beautiful love songs. And when they were in their salad days, I was head over heels for the girl next door.
"Truckin'", "Been Too Long On The Road"
Yes, their songs have beautiful messages!💓 I love the heart imagery.
I have an older sister who loved listening to Bread in the '70s. As a young child living under the same roof, I absorbed many of these songs as if through osmosis. Happy you're working your way through their hits, as it's sure bringing back some long forgotten memories. This one has always been a particular favorite of mine.
Absorption LOL My Sister too and my mother Dancing to Joan Baez and Bob Dylan
I started junior high in '71 and graduated high school in '77. I'll put those seven years of music up against anyone elses. We slowed danced to Bread at school dances and later at Victory Dances after Friday night football games in high school. So cool to see the music of my time still as popular today with the younger generation and new fans just discovering it. Love the Bread requests!
It’s nice to hear some of Bread’s lesser known material. This song is lovely. 🌺✌️
Great song awesome reaction ❤️💯
The keyboard player on this was Larry Knechtel, who was also the piano player on Simon And Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water. He actually wrote a track that James Griffin sings on the Guitar Man album titled Picture In Your Mind.
Great reaction. What a superb band Bread were.
Great reaction Harri. Bread doesn't have a bad song!
Keep it up Harri, enjoying the variety of songs on your channel, your reactions and hearing what you think of the songs...
I was just saying yesterday that James Griffin was my favourite singer and you react to one of his songs the very next day.
Finest and beautiful music, armonies, thank you friend, desde México, than'ks :)
Never heard this one, didn't that was possible! 😊
Lots of Bread reactions this month...anyone fancy some toast?...lol Seriously though this is a great request Craig. The brilliant vocals of David Gates shines again in this beautiful track. Thanks for the reaction on this Harri. Glad you're enjoying a group that was overlooked and underappreciated! Bread had its loyal fan base back in the day, but they never got big.
Thanks!
Actually they did get pretty big, had a lot of top 10 hits with Make it with you going to 1
It is James Griffin, not David Gates, singing on this song.
@@padfolio He starts out the song, but he and David Gates then sing harmony.
Did David Gates sing a bad song,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Nope 😁
thank you for this song it reminds me of a couple that divorced when I was turning `18 that emotionally took me apart and this song reminds me of how I was feeling at the time
Try Mother Freedom or Down On My Knees for more of a rock sound from them.
Bread has a big catalog of music
Please react "Remember When" by Color me Badd. Color me Badd was a RNB/Soul boyband that formed in 1985. They were awarded as the "Best R&B/Soul group" back in the early 90s. "Remember Me" was their last song produced before they were disbanded in 1998. They're one of the most underrated boyband but one of the greatest!
My favorite is the song, IF
Thanks for that song. I remember it well. Another one to accompany this one might be "I Want You With Me"... also by BREAD. Again, Thanks.
Oyaaaaaa nice wow never heard this 1 thanks
I really like their harmony! I’ve listened to them for more years than I can remember! Talking of harmony,there is a gospel group called the Gaither Vocal Band! You should listen to “The Hallelujah Band” by them. It’s on TH-cam! I think you will love their harmony!!
Another album cut of theirs of note is "Our Lady Of Sorrow". A haunting song about a woman fighting addiction. It may be the best thing they ever did.
Reminds me of my Ex-Wife LOL C, mon return and destroy the little that is left of me FINISH what you've Begun. I used to sing a fair bit of Bread at a Wine Bar ( Piano Bar ) along with other songs from Elton John, easy-listening music

I brilliant song from James Griffin, with David Gates singing backup for a change!

Next time it's "Down on my Knees."
James Griffin is singing lead on this song
Temptations shirt !!!!
Moon represents water that cleanses the dirt or washes away the soap represented by Saturn. Thys the baby boomers sometimes do tell a story of frustation, and expect the other party to do the unentanglement. Moon represents a baby and he yells at the adult caregiver to do the unentanglement.
It just hit me that Bread sometimes sounds like the Beach Boys, and David Gates sounds like Brian Wilson.
If you really want to hear an incredible album, listen to the entire LP by James Griffin on Polydor Records titled "Breakin' up Is Easy. Not a bad track on it.
Green Day Jesus of Suburbia I’m telling you life changing
Give a listen to David Gates Clouds Suite
James Griffen not David Gates leading this one. I remember this cut on the album I had. It's great!
Both sing harmony together starting part way through the song.
I have never heard this song by Bread. It must be a deep cut, but it sounds pleasant enough. Not my favorite, and I can see why it was never a hit, but it might grow on me.
Try Mother Freedom by Bread. Their only "rocking" song!
I really wish he would but I don't think he looks at these comments much.
Call On Me, Dream Lady, Tecolote, Don't Tell Me No, Lay Your Money Down, would be other rocking songs.
