Erics voice makes this song unforgettable and unduplicatable, but Alan Price's organ solo makes it legendary.
Very well said 👏
Spot on Alan price master of the organ/keyboard. 👍
Great reaction!
In this video , no mics or wires. Walking with electric guitars with no electric connection. It`s a miracle ...lol ...
Some people can sing all that they can. But Eric can sing all that he wants to. Just a solid, God given talent.
Spot on!
This song is impossible to cover. Nobody can sing it better.
Eric Burdon has one of the most distinct voices ever!
so many people forget the british invasion was more than just the stones and beatles....these guys are so underrated.
60s and 70s were rock's golden age. We had THE best talent then. No gimmicks, no autotune, just pure talent. Today's music doesn't even come close.
"Please don't let me be misunderstood" is another great song of theirs...
Yes👍
It's all over now,Baby blue excellent song also
All their stuff was great.
I would love to see you thought on this song .
Fantastic song!
The Animals rocked the house of the rising sun. Not the original version, but by far the best in my opinion.
Was 23 at the time of this song, looked 18 and sounded 40.
spacefanatic. I learnt Eric Burdon was only 19 when he sang that song. It was so popular and believe it or not it is still popular today. It is often played in bars in the evenings!
@@zella417bcarter9 He was born in 1941 and the record was released in 1964 making him 23
Eric Burden has soul coming out of his ears. So much talent
True
This song was way ahead of it's time, 1964. Not only does Burden have an awesome voice, the backup band does such a great job.
It always astounds me when these young black kids actually acknowledge the depth of talent in my generation. We really had it pretty good. We had folk and trad., blues, jazz, fusion, rock, rhythm and blues, soul, funk, funkadelic, psychedelic, pop, rock and roll, hell, we even had country rock. And western. Ha!
They were a huge UK band in the 1960s, along with Beatles, the Rolling Stones, etc. with songs like this, and "We Gotta Get Outta This Place", "Don't Bring Me Down", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood", "It's My Life", and much more. In fact, The Animals were a big favourite of GIs during the Vietnam War... House of the Rising Sun and We Gotta Get Out of this Place, especially, struck chords with troops there
I grew up in that generation (age 68), that is raw talent! No auto tone back then. People sang from their heart & were great at it. I really miss it compared to what’s out there now. So glad I was born when I was to enjoy such perfection. If you want to hear others (white) with real soul, listen to The Righteous Brothers. Favorite song, You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling. Can’t be beat!
Totally agree with you, I also grew up with this music and today's music can't compare to the 60's ,
The Rising Sun was a brothel, music, gambling place. They made their record in 1 take because they couldn't afford to pay more. British band.
Wasn't one take drummer and organ player switch positions at the end, just sayin
It flows incredibly but not one take
Yes and the guy in the song is "going back to New Orleans to wear that ball and chain." So he fell in love with one of the prostitutes and is willingly going back to marriage. "It's been the ruin of many a poor boy" so I guess that brothel had some of the prettiest girls around and many a poor boy married the girls.
They where English formed and borm in Newcastle upon Tyne
@@twalrus1 Or maybe by ruin he means he was drawn into a life of crime associating with them and now he's going back there to be imprisoned.
Where did this soul come from?
The north of England mate!!
A true classic song.
👍👍☮️💟👏👏👏🇬🇧🏴
Tyneside
They recorded this song in one take which makes it all the more impressive.
They recorded this in ONE take.
Eric Burdon was only 23 when this song was done......face of an angel, such a well-seasoned voice at such a young age.
No face of an angel! More like the face of a bad boy. 😛😛😍😍😍
@@bernicemoore5182 well, i think he has a cute little boy face......with the voice of a bad boy.....LOL
@@cindyshawver9986 That's not no cute little boy face. He's good looking, but that's the face of boy with the don't f**k with me look. 😄😄😄😄
23 year old, who looks like he's 15 and sounds like he's 45. EB the legend!
The face of a man who's blowing minds and knows it. And yeah - he's really young and baby faced here. But he's a total badass.
Hi Chod. I'm an old English guy and feel so privileged to have experienced the incredible musical talent that we had in the 1960s and 70s. There was new stuff being released every week. It was all so new and so different to what went before that it was almost like a spiritual awakening. I'm glad that all this fantastically diverse music is still there for new generations to discover and enjoy; as you so clearly do.
I am an old American guy and feel the same way. Grew up in the 60's and 70's and every time you turned around there was great music coming out. And I didn't care which side of the pond it came from. If it was good, it was good. Love the old blues too - Muddy Waters with Little Walter on the harp (harmonica). God what a sound they put out together. Little Walter never got the credit he deserved from Muddy but that is another story. Loved it all. It was a great time for music lovers.
I m a 65 years old woman from Sweden I fell as you two , what a great time it was whit all that great music and all this groups . The original Animals is my favorit group love Erics voice so much
60s and 70s were rock's golden age. Today's stuff pales by comparison. Back then you had to have real talent. No autotune, no special effects, just raw talent.
75 years old here in Idaho, USA. I’m 10 yrs younger than my sisters and heard their 1950s music. Loved it. But then Elvis and the pop singers to the Beatles, but this song was so special. I only heard it a few times, but love it!
It's good to see some recognition for Alan Price's sterling performance on the keyboard. Most reviews/reactions are so struck by the vocals that the instrumentalists are overlooked but this is very much a 'group' effort!
It really is.
Alan Price's organ work is justifiably celebrated - it's hypnotically brilliant. The entire arrangement is constructed around the keyboards. But all of the Animals were terrific musicians, pulling from diverse traditions. The commentator hit on the fact the Hilton Valentine's memorable circling guitar riff really is like Cash, and John Steele is putting down very tasty jazz-influenced drumming.
The Beatles are my favorite band but the Animals were the only contemporary band that actually made the Fabs nervous. And with good reason - in 1964 I would say that the Animals were even better musicians than the Beatles were at the time. And Eric Burdon is an absolutely legendary vocalist. I consider him to be the finest British blues singer of the 60s, and maybe ever.
The lead singer is Eric Burden and the first time I ever heard his voice it sent a shiver right up my spine.
To answer Wilburn's question, Eric says his soul style came from listening to American singers such as Ray Charles, Muddy Waters, and Big Joe Turner.
the 1st time ?
You're lucky, it still does that with me :)
I'm just as floored as you and I've been listening to this for over 50 years.
I was 12 yrs old when this came out, the Animals were game changers on the British music scene. Thank you for a very thoughtful reaction. A Scottish subscriber.
The Animals got on board in 1964 and this song was a huge hit at the time. So you see they were on 57 years ago. I am a die hard Animals fan; I was 14 years old when that song was released. I still listen to it a hundred times on a daily basis and still can't get enough of it! so.......
epic masterpiece by an exceptionally talented group...yes, Burdon's facial expression totally matched his vocal expression...This cover of an American folk song tells an authentic story of the human condition.
The organ playing is superb, some of the best you'll ever hear, and creates a deep and soulful atmosphere. Eric Burdon, the lead singer, had an incredible voice and had a very successful career. See if you can find 'Sky Pilot', a magnificent song. Cheers
Song can always give chills. I was driving with my 4yr old daughter today and played this for the first time. She was entranced by this performance. Who wouldn't be
Eric Burden, the lead singer, turned out to be an incredible talent. You won't be disappointed by any of his stuff.
He is great
Eric Burdon and Alan Price two of the greatest musicians of any era, it's lovely that you youngsters are discovering this stuff through TH-cam while it's bringing back the good times for us old geezers.
It’s a product of the time. I’m 70 now and I was so lucky to have been there! On tv or in person which was cheap, it was DOPE. I hate to say that but today that explains it best.
The opening guitar riff grabbed me in 1964 when I was in the 4th grade. Still love the song, it’s timeless. Great reaction video..
What a great reaction! Thank you! This song is a classic!
That was a one-take performance by the 23 year old Eric Burden. No technical wizardry back then either to enhance the effects. It was just his own raw God-given talent. I loved the individual vocal and musical hallmarks of the British 60’s bands. Each one had something a little unique about their style. I also loved the way they dressed in matching snappy suits. It definitely conveyed the impression that they were a Team.
I love this band 💗 his voice is soul
True
Gives me goosebumps every time..and tears.
Dude on the keys, reminds me of Lerch on the organ in the Adam's Family. He is nothing less than Fire.
Animals, lead singer Eric Burden, from North East England back in the sixties. One of my favourites. Their version of Sam Cooke classic Bring It On Home To Me is awesome, as is Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood. Thanks for this and for your reactions. Cheers bro!
Dude I love this song so fuckin much, it hits me right in the soul. I still get chills while it washes over me, decades after I first heard it
Same here
Soul has no color!✨☀️✨🎸✨☀️✨🎸
Now check out Eric Burdon and the Animals 'We Gotta Get Outta This Place' - The anthem of U.S. troops fighting in the Viet Nam War. Also 'Monterey' - all great tunes.
I like "Dimples" myself.
Brian Harron first song I heard in 1969 when I touched down - sure was not the last time.
And not *Sky Pilot* ? Strange but I just saw an interview where he's outside I believe in SE America. Certainly not in any studio. Burdon said that he did BOTH those songs because he is SO anti-war and frankly it was Vietnam at the time. But Sky Pilots the lyrics also could be another war? Or all wars. "Where people are around there is trouble".
Remember "Sky Pilot" with the bagpipes going on? Another great EB and the Animals song.
Eric Burdon’s voice was epic. My all time favorite song. First heard it in 1964 when I was 15 years old and now, in 2020, it’s my iPhone ringtone! Lol.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR REACTION!👏👏👏 The Animals were before my time, but the first time I heard House Of The Rising Son, I was mesmerised - the guitars, that unbelievable organ, BUT where does Eric Burton get that amazing voice - just WOW! I will never tire of listening to this song💖 It can only be described as MASTERPIECE!
True
The tall bass player, Chas Chandler discovered Jimmie Hendrix and became his manager.
yeah this really surprised me. Wow!
I met Jimi Hendrix's Daughter in a South London Park 3 years ago. As she was walking away after speaking to me, while I was walking my dogs, i asked her what she did and she casually mentioned she was a Singer and that her Dad had been in THe "Business". It was only on further probing that she disclosed who her Father was ...lol
He did not "discover" Hendrix. LOL
@@malcolmdrake6137 Yes, he did. Jimi's white girlfriend tried to interest a big-time record producer in Jimi and the fool said that Hendrix had no talent. Then Chandler saw Jimi at Cafe Wha, and told him he'd bring Jimi back to the UK when The Animals finished their American tour. Jimi thought Chandler was bullshitting him, but he wasn't. And the Animal's manager, Michael Jeffery, became Jimi's co-manager. True story!
@@heinrichvon yes..but Jimi recorded with Curtis Knight and The Young bloods. The thing was England had a much more accepting audience for a "Black" musician like many stars they had to go to England to "Get a Name" and then...come back to the States and make it BIG. ✌
They were part of the "British Invasion" of the early/mid 60"s.
At this time of video production (1964) the song was recorded in studio (this song in only two live takes) and the video was on set with the band lip synching and instruments muted. Nothing was augmented just laid on top of one another.
I love being able to see someone discover this song for the first time
The best lesson I have ever learned is that soul is not governed by race, religion, or class; it is just something to recognize, and music is the best way to do that.

E.B. could flat out sing! Great reaction
Eric can sing, if you couldn't sing back then you didn't get anywhere it was that simple.
I’ve done that just played it over and over again in my car I just love his gritty soulful voice and he sounds even more soulful than rock a couple years after this video.
One moment in this video that always makes me laugh just a lil bit, is in the last few seconds, after he's done singing...
He's maintaining his serious look, but the guy behind him, with the red guitar, just has this big sh** eating grin on his face looking like Jim Carrey's character in Dumb & Dumber.
The guitarist is Hylton Valentine( his REAL name). I went to High school weith him, and he taught me how to play my first 3 guitar chords - E, A B7
I always noticed that too 😂
Probably laughing at the stagehands pushing organ and Price to stage front.
I must've watched 100 reactions to this song.
It never gets old. That keyboard solo. Legit.
OMG.. I was 13 when this came out! We loved the Animals
Burden moved to L.A. many many years ago and established a solo career for a while. Keys player is Alan Price and he left to form his own group
The Alan Price Set.
Not to mention, left stealing the royalties to this song.
ShariSez1 John Fogarty was screwed!
The singer is Eric Burdon. He is 82 years old now, and has had a long career. He may be retired by now but as recent as a year or two ago he was still singing.
I was 4 years away from being born when this song was released. It's always been, and will always be, one of my favorite pieces of musical genius. ❤️
Listen to that singer again when he sang with War. "Spill the Wine" Here's a live version of it: th-cam.com/video/ppJnTlazJuk/w-d-xo.html
YES almost nobody knows that!
Hidden gem
Yeah he killed it with war. His voiced softened but he's still a ba
I totally agree. You gotta hear “Spill the Wine”. He also sang with War on their song: “Low Rider”. You’ll feel the funk on that song!
1964 I heard this song on the radio. I fell in love with Eric Burdon and The Animals!!! LOVE THEM!!!! They are among the gods of Rock n' Roll!!!!! lol
Same here
yes, the great Eric Burdon!
This was the Animals. One of the best bands in the 60th.
Yes
You are so right, this song has two voices one is Eric Burdon(the voice) and the other Alan Price on the organ. The back and forth by these two great artists is classic talent.
I have loved this song for 50 years! Another awesome thing about this song is that this tune fits perfectly with the words of "amazing grace". Try it you'll see. So glad you younglings have found The Animals! We old folks were pretty cool in our day. yep :)
I was 2 years old in 64 lol love this song first time I ever heard it was when I was 5 years old 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎☮️💟
I was 9 years old
British Invasion!! About the time of the Beatles. Eric Burden has such a powerful voice, he was so young when he recorded this. This has always been my favorite rendition!,
I love this song and Erics voice from 1964 to this day
It bogels my mind how anyone alive could not have had ever hear The house of the rising sun! 🤷
👍👍
Powerful song, powerful voice, it's like he had the voice of a much older soul
It's a really good guitar exercise too, for both hands
He’s what my grandmother would call an “Old soul”
The Animals were formed in my home town of Newcastle in the 1960s . . . all incredibly talented working class lads.
Love them
The lead singer is Eric Burdon. A great song from later in his career was Spill the Wine. which he recorded with the group War. Great song!
U gonna love this! Eric Burdon always looked like a kid, but that voice! You may be familiar with his work with WAR, including Spill The Wine
There is a good explanation of the origins of this song on wikipedia. There really was a Rising Sun Brothel in 1862.
This was the most successful recording of the song, but as other have said try some of the other songs by this group.
This song takes me back to my first hearing it on a small trannie radio as we picnicked on the lawn at home back in 1964.
One of my weird memories: In 1965 I attended an Episcopal church camp, Camp Illium, in the mountains outside Durango, Colorado and a couple of camp counselors had their guitars, sat on the front stoop of a cabin, and sang this song. A peculiar setting for this song....in a church camp!
@@jppitman1 Well, it is a song that warns against falling into the vices and evils of humanity, so perhaps there is no more appropriate place to play it.
This is actually a 1964 cover of a blues/folk song that dates back fifty years before that. There have been many really good covers both before and after, but the Animals took ownership with this version. The various versions have switched it up, both singing it from a male and female perspective.
The song is way older than that. They've found that it dates back to at least the 18th century, probably even older, and was most likely from the British Isles. This version is an Americanized version that the guys in the Animals liked and did their own version of, but the song? Unlike a lot of classics from this era it's a LOT older.
Of course, there's people who think Simon & Garfunkel wrote "Scarborough Fair"...
Dolly did a version that was pretty good.
Good point, but the truth is that it may be much older and nobody is certain as to who wrote it. It is generally attributed to the greatest and most prolific author of all time, Anonymous.
A haunting classic tale. The Cosmos gave birth to a timeless soul filled song. Despair and misery never felt so beautiful and sung about no less. Going on 60 years and it still grabs all who listen.
The singer, Eric Burden started the soul/funk band "War." They did "Low Rider", "Slipping Into Darkness", "The World Is A Ghetto" and "Cisco Kid."
1962 vintage here and this group is timeless
These were the days before Auto-tune, Remixing, No effects, CD's, Tape, etc
Everything was done on Reel-to-Reel tapes. So songs were often recorded in one take. Anything added was done at the time of recording.
If you kept re-recording you'd wreck the original recording.
So you got it right. No messing about.
I had to chuckle at the suit and ties.
That’s what 1964 was about when getting a video made. The Animals are cool and soulful!
God Dam the Pusher Man!
Yeah got to love the British Invasion! They brought the blues to teenager in America. They bought it full circle back to where it was born! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
First heard this in the Summer of 1964 - yes I’m that old and here we are decades later and I’m thrilled that others are as thrilled as I was all those ago. One thing I’d hadn’t noticed before was the big grin on the Lead Guitarist Hinton Valentines face at the end of the song that says we nailed it Guys! RIP Hinton - he passed away in January!
Chas Chandler, the bassist, pAssed away in 1996
What amazes me is this is the 6th review I’ve watched on you tube and every single reaction was the same 👍🇬🇧❤️
Great song (singer and keyboard WOW) Great reaction.
This was done in one take on only day off a Saturday, while on tour with chuck berry!!! Real voice Eric Burton no crutches like today.
Love Eric Burdon so much great music then. Sky Pilot is another great one. I had some of their albums🤗
I was 8 years old when this song came out and it is in my top 10 songs, everybody that loved this song was white, loving his black soul voice. Music will end this crazy race relations in this country I know a couple rap and hip hop and like it. Good music is good music. I love your channel girl.
Listen to the oldies, there's a lot of great music waiting for you.
This is one of the better reaction reviews I've seen. Respect.
I was a freshman in high school when this song came out. You couldn't turn on the radio without hearing it. This was the beginning at of the British Invasion, 1964 - 1967 starting with the Beatles, which had a tremendous impact on popular music. Every week a new British band was dominating the airwaves. The Kinks. Herman's Hermits, The Yardbirds and The Hollies
Alan Price on the keyboard outstanding 💕🇬🇧
"The only thing that a gambler needs is suitcase and a trunk. The only time that he's satisfied is when he's all drunk."
lol
This song is one of MANY that defined that Generation and Lives on Today..
Great reaction! You are not the first person to mention the stoic demeanor of the band. Remember that this was the beginning of rock and roll and the free wheeling atmosphere of rock and roll concerts had yet to happen. Watch the Stones on Ed Sullivan show.
I'm 47 and have heard this song a long time but have never seen the video. Honestly I am shocked at how young the singer is and his amazing voice for his age.
Eric was 23 here he was born in 1941
So glad you enjoyed this song. It's one of my all time favourites.
It`s so interesting to those of us who grew up with this music and the bands ,that you young Americans are having the chance to spread this wonderful stuff.
What was happening in the UK then was quite unique ,your own record companies were strictly divided into Black and White music but there was nothing like that here and many of the young British musicians had heard and admired Black Artistes.
So they were free to play and record any kind ,and when these bands were picked up to play Internationally ,it was often the first time that White Americans appreciated what the British had heard all along .
Did you know that when the Beatles were informed that their audiences were to be segregated ,they refused to appear unless it was to a mixed audience and the management had to give in as the Band was so famous and in demand?
Alan Price's keyboards were amazing.
blues/rock at it's finest. my favorite band from the british invasion of 1963. the beatles were everyman's band - a bit poppier. rolling stones were the badboys and the animals were - well they were the animals. a lot of british bands then cut their teeth on old blues songs - they loved mississippi blues and the artists.
Add in the Who and the Kinks and you’ve got the essence of the (first) British Invasion.
To be fair, the Beatles were only poppier at the beginning. With Rubber Soul and then especially Revolver, they took music in entirely different directions.
@@richardnanian6075 very true - the beatles without a doubt got much more diverse and even sometimes quirkier [why don't we do it in the road , when i'm 64 , bulldog ,etc.] and you could really say that the who and the kinks were the first punk rock bands. loved them all
I love original Animals and Erics voice, i like most of the groups from the 60s .But Animals has my heart,
Alan Price absolutely smashing it on the Vox Continental.
Everybody have different way to qualify this song but basically are impressed by the singer and organ player that bury the excellent guitarist and the drum play.
The only group that could rivaled them was the doors with different songs.....
the 60's were spectacular for music
Legendary group from mid 60's, they were hit machines with that great voice of Eric Burton. Lot's of killer tunes from them for sure. Met Eric in 1991 and he was so nice and funny.
