You guys haven't shown up on my feed in FOREVER. Turn the Page was my Daddy's favorite song and we played it at his funeral. He's been gone 16 years next month so I like to think he's speaking to me today. Thank you for reacting to this song for a broken hearted Daddy's girl that still needs her daddy ❤
I love the message of this song. It's the story of the rock star. The real story. That saxophone is lonely. It's so honest. One of those songs I wish I could hear for the first time again.
Also it was originally written in 1972 when the conflict in Vietnam was at its peak, and many men grew their hair out long in protest. That was used as a cutting thing to say , "What is that? A woman , or a man?"
This song is all about the lyrics, that’s why the instruments are very minimalistic. In the lyrics, Bob is portraying the mental and psychological toll one takes being on the road so much as a musician.
I hear it on my radio atleast once a day on the '60, 70, 80s' station. It's still big to this day, hearing it played on the radio is why I even know of it. It's how I find most older music I like.
I love that you guys react to so many different genres of music. So many people are so 1 dimensional when it comes to music. Legendary song. It’s timeless something that will be listened to for very long time. U guys got my subscription for this reaction. ❤
"One night, (Prince) asked Matt Fink why the proudly working-class Detroit rocker had such a huge appeal; Fink replied that it was Seger's big, gut-punching ballads - 'We've Got Tonight,' 'Turn the Page' - that his fans loved, and that Prince should try writing that kind of anthem if he really wanted to conquer the pop world." He then wrote Purple Rain.
I saw Seger and the SBB in '79, and the sax player (Alto Reed) started the song standing over the exit in the 3rd balcony wirh a spotlight on him. Amazing. One of my favorite shows ever.
My favorite way to explain the genius and appeal of Bob Seger is a quote from Bob Dylan: "Some people think Bob is a poor man's Bruce Springsteen, but personally I always thought Bruce was the rich man's Bob Seger"
I'm not much of a Dylan fan, but that's spot-on. Bob Seger's lyrics are straight from the soul of the blue-collar man. Bruce Springsteen's lyrics are like asking ChatGPT to write working man songs.
Traveling Man/Beautiful Loser off this album Live Bullet is blistering, both musically and vocally. Every single song of Live Bullet is stellar rock and worthy of reaction...every single song.
We saw him on his 2019 tour. His voice was still great for his age, and he had A LOT of energy. One of my favorite concerts ever. My wife didn't know that she knew all of his songs, each time he started singing, her eyes would light up as she recognized another song that she loved. Don't be fooled though, Bob's voice is capable of amazing power!
My first concert! Kansas City, 1986. "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" is very upbeat and you'll hear him all over his range, whereas "Night Moves" is a bit more subdued. For my money, the live version of "Travelin' Man/Beautiful Loser" is where you'll get the full experience of what he can do. It's on the same live record with "Turn the Page."
This song hit hard for anyone who ever played in a band and went on tour or even local bands that traveled to different cities in their home state. Bob is a National Treasure! Seen him many times in Southern Michigan before he went national. Many times after. Great storyteller.
Lyrically, "Night Moves" is utterly fantastic with a turn of the phrase at the end of the song. "Like a Rock" is full of ennui and regret. And the live version of "Travelin' Man/ Beautiful Loser" is so so powerful. Bob Seger is the king of story telling and nostalgia.
I’m so glad yall reacted to this song. This was my Dads favorite song and and when it comes on I get to be via with him for a few minutes. This song has so much detail go back and listen to the words, it’s a fantastic story.
Bob Seger deserves every accolade and praise he gets! My favorite song of his that doesn't get a lot of attention is "Her Strut". It's got a nice guitar riff and of course that good growly Seger voice!
One of his lesser known but equally fantastic songs is a cover of Tina Turner's "Nutbush City Limits". It will not disappoint, and for the record the two times I saw Seger in concert "Turn The Page" got him a minimum of 5 minute standing ovations...
Has there been a more honest song about life on the road as a musician? We're talking about the 60's, 70's. No fancy private jets, doing 2 shows in 2 nights, then having 2 weeks off. 5 shows in 7 nights in 5 different cities, riding a bus. Bands in those days EARNED their money.
For me, of a certain age, growing up in the state of Michigan... Bob Seger is like the sound of summer. Late nights around a bonfire with a good drink, good people, looking up at the stars, Bob Seger in the background. A lot of Detroit, southeastern Michigan is just the feel of this sound. Little rough around the edges, blue collar, the good kind of nostalgia.
i wish you guys could've seen the smile creep across my face, knowing what's coming, when you first paused it and said "...this feels like it's gonna be this low-key thing, and it's cool, i'm loving it." That last kind of shout that he builds to is just fantastic. A lot of younger listeners don't understand what it was like to have long hair like he did back in the 60s and 70s, particularly touring in the midwest and south... that's what that section with the line "All the same old cliches, 'Is that a woman or a man?' / You always feel outnumbered, you don't dare take a stand" comes from. Guys would get cornered and beaten buy a group of guys for having long hair back then.
This is surprisingly cool to see this on your platform. This song is incredible!! Good job by representing different genres and some what older ones too!
This is an awesome song, and it makes me think about the life of my favorite artist when they are on the road and I enjoy their concerts. Bless them all and thanks for all the shows.
Just one of those all time great silky smooth songs. It's been redone by a few artists and probably every bar band played this song, it never gets old. Nice reaction!
Very much a song lamenting the boredom of a traveling musician. Sixteen hours to travel for that 2 hour high of the next gig, turn the page, and repeat. Jackson Browne does a similar theme in his song, The Load Out/Stay. For Seger, Night Moves is a wistful ballad of his passed youth and his first amorous encounter. Rambling Gambling Man is a much more uptempo rocker. Fire Lake gives me more of a Country vibe.
Glad you liked it… I’m not a big Bob Seger fan but the first album I ever got for Christmas in 1978. It’s got the song that you need to live on it. It’s a live album and it does Nutbush city limits by Tina Turner… But it’s a dual song because it goes into the song traveling man I think you would really enjoy and you can receive the voice that you’re looking for
For George: Of the Seger hits you listed, the one that's going to give you the high voltage singing you're craving is "Hollywood Nights". I have a feeling that's going to be an instant Staylist for you.
Seger is singing with the intention to express tiredness in his voice like the road has beaten him down. This is why he does not use is big voice for this performance, most artists don't have this control and it's why Seger sings with so much soul. Other songs that require the big voice are "Even Now"," Roll me away","Fire inside". you would really like!
You guys are real... You have a great sense of good music.. If you were old like me you could have seen all of this music in concert... Enjoy your commentary... Kudos!
I am a huge Bob Seger fan. If you want to hear him really push it vocally, listen to The Fire Down Below, Nutbush City Limits, Down Home, (among many others).
Thanks for reviewing this one! BUT, the actual “radio hit” is off Segers “Live Bullet” album which is one of the the best live albums ever. A couple of ones you should check out.. “Rosalie” “Night Moves” and my all time favorite from the “Live Bullet” album version “Travelin Man/Beautiful Loser” live combo version.
A guitar man, a piano man. a soul man. Bob Seger is rock and roll royalty. Not to mention a great American poet.
Bob Seger is one of the all time greats. I will never be tired of Night Moves, Still The Same, and Main Street.
Main street just brings me back to the early 2000s watching the Red Wings at a bar in Detroit
Grew up with all that music in the late 70's and early 80's. I'm a metal head but appreciate good music in most genres except pop and new rap crap!
@@Dyenosaur00Brings me back to the late 70's...
Against the Wind
Night moves is a BANGER!
Bob Seger has an absolutely phenomenal catalogue.
nah
@@pooki903 Cool you have an opinion that differs from mine. Thank god I didnt ask you.
“ Come to Papa” and “Her Strut” funky and some dirty raspy vocals. 👌
He said Her Strut was about Jane Fonda
Bob has been my co-pilot on every single roadtrip I have taken over the past 40 years. No long drive is complete without Bob Seger on repeat!
that's depressing
Live Bullet album is a must on a road trip for 25 years strong
Just watch out for Hollywood Nights. You'll get a ticket if you're not careful.
❤❤❤
Bob Seger should be his own genre. You both will love his song Roll Me Away. 100% guaranteed.
This⬆
❤❤❤

I love the message of this song. It's the story of the rock star. The real story. That saxophone is lonely. It's so honest. One of those songs I wish I could hear for the first time again.
Bob is a great story teller in his songs. And his voice just has a ton of character. He can do it all, and has.
When Bob Segar wrote this song, he had super long hair. Hence the cafe "..is that a woman or a man"
Also it was originally written in 1972 when the conflict in Vietnam was at its peak, and many men grew their hair out long in protest. That was used as a cutting thing to say , "What is that? A woman , or a man?"
This song is all about the lyrics, that’s why the instruments are very minimalistic. In the lyrics, Bob is portraying the mental and psychological toll one takes being on the road so much as a musician.
Seger has an endless catalog of hits! Bob is a legend!
This song was HUGE for 10/15 yrs. It was played at keg parties, blasted from cars, and everyone knew every word.
I hear it on my radio atleast once a day on the '60, 70, 80s' station. It's still big to this day, hearing it played on the radio is why I even know of it. It's how I find most older music I like.
Straight up , along with Zeppelin and Skynyrd! Always at keg parties during the 80's..
As I am sure many will mention, this live performance is incredible.
Bob Seger is LEGEND!!!!!! He does NOT have a bad song! Take a deep dive into his catalog
I love that you guys react to so many different genres of music. So many people are so 1 dimensional when it comes to music. Legendary song. It’s timeless something that will be listened to for very long time. U guys got my subscription for this reaction. ❤
this is one song i can never say if i enjoy the original or the Metallica cover more.. i like them both, a lot.. for different reasons and it's ok!
I also like both versions but I got to go with the original as my favourite.
Classic Bob Seger. Love the journey it takes you on. Thanks so much guys for this reaction!
Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man is a song you dudes will flip out for! The kind of song you can listen to 18 times in a row and not get sick of it.
Also his first hit, with 17 year old Glenn Frey on background vocals
I still listen while watching the music video to this day
Lots of good song suggestions. Katmandu is fast fun and upbeat
Short, but a banger. I second that as well as Katmandu.
His lyrics are so visual. He’s a great communicator and excellent storyteller.
this song was played at my brothers funeral he loved Bob Seger he did kaeroke and this was his favorite song to sing thanks for the memory
Against The Wind is my all time favorite Seger song. Great for driving and the drums hit hard
Bob Seger's voice is like a warm, sexy, unforgettable embrace that you never want to end.
Lord…that’s the truth!
Night Moves, Against the Wind, Hollywood Nights all great ones
"One night, (Prince) asked Matt Fink why the proudly working-class Detroit rocker had such a huge appeal; Fink replied that it was Seger's big, gut-punching ballads - 'We've Got Tonight,' 'Turn the Page' - that his fans loved, and that Prince should try writing that kind of anthem if he really wanted to conquer the pop world." He then wrote Purple Rain.
Bob Segar always gets me in my soul. My dad always loved him and everytime i hear him i simultaneously feel happy and sad. He has so many bangers.
Bob Seger embodies the feeling of when you sit in front of a campfire and fondly comtemplate your memories and mortality.
Roll Me Away, Feel Like a Number, Betty Lou, Horizontal Bop, Katmandu, Hollywood Nights and Rock and Roll Never Forgets.
👍
Fire Lake, Strut
I saw Seger and the SBB in '79, and the sax player (Alto Reed) started the song standing over the exit in the 3rd balcony wirh a spotlight on him. Amazing. One of my favorite shows ever.
I like that visual.
That 100% would have given me goosebumps
My favorite way to explain the genius and appeal of Bob Seger is a quote from Bob Dylan:
"Some people think Bob is a poor man's Bruce Springsteen, but personally I always thought Bruce was the rich man's Bob Seger"
I prefer Bob over Bruce. But, I have to ask, with that analogy, what does that make John Mellencamp?
@@cirrustate8674 A spoiled whiner?
bruce can't hold Bob's jockstrap
I’ve always thought Springsteen was a better lyricist but Seger is a better vocalist. Love both.
I'm not much of a Dylan fan, but that's spot-on.
Bob Seger's lyrics are straight from the soul of the blue-collar man.
Bruce Springsteen's lyrics are like asking ChatGPT to write working man songs.
No one will EVER be mad at a Seger reaction ❤

ROLL ME AWAY.
That song just makes my spirit fly. You dudes would love it.
Traveling Man/Beautiful Loser off this album Live Bullet is blistering, both musically and vocally. Every single song of Live Bullet is stellar rock and worthy of reaction...every single song.
Recorded Live in Detroit Michigan at Cobo Hall !!! Brother Bob, The Pride of Michigan
I was nine when my older brother took me there. I lived in Toledo Ohio at the time. 58 now. Lol😮
Watch her Strut and you'll get almost every aspect of his voice
My favorite of his.
We saw him on his 2019 tour. His voice was still great for his age, and he had A LOT of energy. One of my favorite concerts ever. My wife didn't know that she knew all of his songs, each time he started singing, her eyes would light up as she recognized another song that she loved.
Don't be fooled though, Bob's voice is capable of amazing power!
I may have been at the same show? I was at 26 of them on the last tour lol
I know the comments are going to be flooded with Metallicas Cover and as well they should!! What a masterpiece
Ive been to every Bob Seger concert that came to the Denver area since I was 16, I'm 69 next month. Still love this song it never gets old.
Bob Seger has a ton of great songs to get into. You could easily fill up a marathon with his material.
My first concert! Kansas City, 1986. "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" is very upbeat and you'll hear him all over his range, whereas "Night Moves" is a bit more subdued. For my money, the live version of "Travelin' Man/Beautiful Loser" is where you'll get the full experience of what he can do. It's on the same live record with "Turn the Page."
That's an awesome first concert!
And '86 was an amazing year. After all, that year gave the world me.😂
My 1st 4 were in 1986!! Great shows!!
This song hit hard for anyone who ever played in a band and went on tour or even local bands that traveled to different cities in their home state. Bob is a National Treasure! Seen him many times in Southern Michigan before he went national. Many times after. Great storyteller.
One of his most popular but he has so, so many more songs from Live Bullet that you would love. Great concert.
Lyrically, "Night Moves" is utterly fantastic with a turn of the phrase at the end of the song. "Like a Rock" is full of ennui and regret. And the live version of "Travelin' Man/ Beautiful Loser" is so so powerful. Bob Seger is the king of story telling and nostalgia.

Bob Seger is an absolute LEGEND. Nothing more needs to be said ... turn the page.
Bob Seger has an incredible catalog of great songs.
Alto Reed is the saxophonist. He was an absolute beast on the Sax. He unfortunately passed a few years ago
is that his real name lol
He lived here in South Florida for years before he passed away.
@@bigol9223 . Actually birth name Thomas Neal Cartmell. Respect
Add Clarence Clemons to that list
Great name for a sax player!!!
Bob Seger deserves every accolade and praise he gets! My favorite song of his that doesn't get a lot of attention is "Her Strut". It's got a nice guitar riff and of course that good growly Seger voice!
Bob is a Motown Records, 60s soul, R&B influenced classic rock legend!
I was lucky enough to see Bob Seger in concert 5 times and every time he was fantastic. Great reaction as always guys. Peace, out.
I am from Detroit. I remember when this album came out. This was before anyone outside of Michigan really didn't even know who Bob Seger was..
One of the best story tellers of his generation....... and since!!! Thanks! I always relive my past when listening to him. Then i smile!
One of his lesser known but equally fantastic songs is a cover of Tina Turner's "Nutbush City Limits". It will not disappoint, and for the record the two times I saw Seger in concert "Turn The Page" got him a minimum of 5 minute standing ovations...
Bob really captures life's peaks and valleys with his incisive lyrics, rich in detail and imagery.......and that voice! LEGEND!
"Her Strut"by Bob Segar is legendary too. Be a couple good reactions. Love the channel
Finally some Seger....Thanks guys..love it!
Has there been a more honest song about life on the road as a musician? We're talking about the 60's, 70's. No fancy private jets, doing 2 shows in 2 nights, then having 2 weeks off. 5 shows in 7 nights in 5 different cities, riding a bus. Bands in those days EARNED their money.
Detroit at its finest. Proud Michigander! Bob is The Bomb

👍🏽✌🏼
Fuckin' A, man. Toledo here.
Bob Seger is my mom's favorite so hearing his songs reminds me of childhood.
Hollywood Nights, Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgets, Betty Lou's Getting Out Tonight, Her strut, Still The Same
That subtle guitar volume gain at "echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head". Classic.
i wish you guys could've seen the smile creep across my face, knowing what's coming, when you first paused it and said "...this feels like it's gonna be this low-key thing, and it's cool, i'm loving it."

Bobs one of the goats for sure, so many great tracks. Night moves next please
Any Bob Seger song is well worth listening to.
Bob Seger is one of the best. Night moves is great. Will be looking for you guys to do that one.
It's my favorite Bob Seger song!
This is surprisingly cool to see this on your platform. This song is incredible!! Good job by representing different genres and some what older ones too!
Like a rock is another one of his hits!!❤
I have been listening to his music for 50 years. I have always thought of it as Motown/ Southern Rock . The best of 2 worlds.
I usually feel like I need a cigarette after listening to a Seger song........and I've never smoked a day in my life.
This is an awesome song, and it makes me think about the life of my favorite artist when they are on the road and I enjoy their concerts. Bless them all and thanks for all the shows.
My mom had his silver bullet CD that we would play in the car when I was younger, would love to see y’all cover “you’ll accompany me”
Thank you for playing this. He has a deep catalog, please do lots of Seger.!
Night Moves, We've Got Tonight, Feel Like A Number
Just one of those all time great silky smooth songs. It's been redone by a few artists and probably every bar band played this song, it never gets old. Nice reaction!

As well Bon Jovi Wanted….
Reference Jackson Brown, which I love!
This is absolutely stay list for me as well.. so many of his songs are. Night moves for sure!!!
An amazing voice and carries so much weight, love this reaction!
Yall should definitely check out that new 38 spesh album! Spesh is back is definitely the song to start with!
Oh and my favorite Bob Seger song Fire Down Below. Get some
I love the way this song builds up to the end.
My first concert was Seger opening for KISS.😊
One of the greatest ever. LEGENDARY🤘🏻
Kid Rock said "Bob Seger has paid more dues than all the artists in the current Billboard Top 40 combined". 'Nuff said.
Something I actually agree with Kid Rock about. Huh.
And Kid Rock just mashes Seger songs up with Skynrd and his fans think he's a genius.
Glad you liked it… I’m not a big Bob Seger fan but the first album I ever got for Christmas in 1978. It’s got the song that you need to live on it.

So many great songs. None are bad. Night Moves is a must.
Excited to see your reaction. Great song
Damn I miss my childhood music really is a time machine. Great reaction guys.
Hollywood Nights and Mainstreet are my favorites but I love a lot of Bob’s songs
Seger is singing with the intention to express tiredness in his voice like the road has beaten him down. This is why he does not use is big voice for this performance, most artists don't have this control and it's why Seger sings with so much soul. Other songs that require the big voice are "Even Now"," Roll me away","Fire inside". you would really like!
Hi guys I just wanted to say another great song from Bob seger would be Hollywood knights the album cut which is longer
Bob is a legend, great storyteller.
I had the pleasure of seeing him live twice. First time was front row tickets I won on the radio, amazing
Bob Seager is-------
Mr. Rock n Roll !!!!!
Bob seger is a classic rock legend for a reason. He was one of the owners of radio play in the 70’s and 80’s.
Such a classic ❤
You guys are real... You have a great sense of good music.. If you were old like me you could have seen all of this music in concert... Enjoy your commentary... Kudos!
I am a huge Bob Seger fan. If you want to hear him really push it vocally, listen to The Fire Down Below, Nutbush City Limits, Down Home, (among many others).
Thanks for reviewing this one! BUT, the actual “radio hit” is off Segers “Live Bullet” album which is one of the the best live albums ever.
