Mickey Thomas's voice can make anyone stop in their tracks. He's amazing!
This was me and my wife's favorite song! After 43 years married, she passed away leaving a huge void in my life! I can't believe you did this song! Your reaction was priceless! Brought back a lot of memories...Thank you!
Hello bluesmike1, we’re so sorry you loss your wife. So happy we brought back good memories. You and your wife had great taste in music. 43 years is a long time to love someone. Praying to one day see 43 years with my Shawn. Thank you so much for watching 😀
Stay strong brother, she wouldn't want you to be down. My wife and I are on 33 and I just couldn't imagine my life without her. My heart goes out to you.
So sorry for your loss

The lead singer is Mickey Thomas and the guitar player is Elvin Bishop ✌️
Elvis and his guitar "Red Dog".
@@denroy3 Elvin not Elvis
Then why was it always listed as Elvin bishop as the singer?
Couldn't tell ya but Elvin Bishop doesn't song.........plays guitar 🎸
I'm 61 years old and always loved this song but never knew that. 😊 Thanks.
Shout out to Reni Slais, the female singer, too. She's sang with the best around.
thanks for that. most don't mention her, but she's right on time - great co-vocalist with Mickey.
I always thought it was his wife
Wonderful Reni Slais, Mickey and Elvin on lead guitar
How old is she here?
Reni Slais! Thank you for mentioning her name! She was truly bitchin there paired with Mickey Thomas on vocals!!
His voice is stellar and always has been, from Elvin Bishop to Jefferson Starship/Airplane. Amazing talent. Congratulations on 8 years together!!
Tracy his voice is phenomenal ❤️❤️ Will be celebrating 8 years married on March 1st. We’ve been together going on 13 years. We have to check out Jefferson Starship/ Airplane
@@ShawnandMel4Life he is a phenomenal singer for sure! 13 years is an accomplishment, especially these days. Congratulations to you both. You are beautiful people. 🙂
@@ShawnandMel4Life Jefferson Airplane first
@@franrichards5131 Mickey Thompson was not in Jefferson airplane he didn't join until they were called starship
The man singing is Mickey Thompson believe guitar player is Alvin Bishop people never seem to know that Mickey Thompson went on to sing with starship or Jefferson starship and then they went to starship you know but he is an incredible singer
Mickey Thomas has a top 5 voice, in my book, of all time. Nobody sounds that good live. Outrageous!!!
We agree john
@@ShawnandMel4Life I don't. He's good but nobody else? Paul Rodgers? David Clayton Thomas? David Ruffin? Steven Tyler? Smokey Robinson? Roy Orbison?
Am I up to five yet?
@@johnoneal1234
That's simply YOUR opinion. Period.
@@ShawnandMel4Life
That's because you two have great taste!!!
@@johneldridge8678 but your opinion matters more?
Mickey has one of the greatest forgotten voices. Chills.Unworldly. A new dimension.
Mickey Thomas’s voice is so underrated! He also sang with Jefferson Starship. His vocal range is incredible. 💙😓
There will never be music like this again!!!! Grateful I got to experience it first hand, 60s and 70s music can't be repeated!!!!!
The music of my generation. It will never be matched.
Almost 50 years later and this will NEVER be replicated. It’s impossible, scientifically it’s one of a kind. Glad to see that it means as much to you as it does to me, and yet…. It means that much more!!
I've been loving this for many, many years. Since it was released in fact!
Hey Iyriasfaves, you have great taste in music. We were blown away😀
Mickey Thomas went on to join Jefferson Starship. "Find Your Way Back" rocks hard.
Don’t forget about Jane, love that song!
Find your way back is a great song....also love "Stranger"
Thanks for that detail... I knew his voice sounded familiar and its one that I've always loved.
JANE!
Just out of a bad long term marriage at 40 yrs old with 4 children. Met this awesome 45 yr old man who just ended a long term relationship.
Neither one of us were interested in a commitment, so we fooled around…… and fell in love anyway….
Now married for 20 glorious years and we both are deeper in love than ever before……..💖💖💖💖💖
OMG…. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to this song! Great song and good times!
Yes it is LadyGator, we absolutely 😍 love it
I probably listen to this song twice a week at 73. It’s just a great song and Elvin Bishop’s guitar skills are amazing!!!
Yes that’s live and no Autotune here. Truly one of the best male vocalist of my generation. I’m 66
Elvin Bishop (the guitarist) was a member of The Paul Butterfield Blues Band in the 60s and went on to front his own band and played all over America and is still playing, he is recognized by purists as one of America's guitar legends, and his beautiful solo here tells the story. He wrote this classic and Mickey sang it. I saw them perform this number at The Aquarius in Seattle in 1976, they saved it for last and brought the house down. You are a nice couple with good personalities, please react to another legendary must see performance by Joe Cocker doing "With a Little Help from My Friends", live at The Metropol, thank you!
And that was a true live performance!
To know how great a singer Mickey Thomas truly is that even at close to 70 years old, he still sings all his songs in their original key
Wow, gotta check him out more but if it's true he was born in 1942, now that this is 2024, gonna be a lot older than 70 now. More like Mick Jagger's age but then look at him now!
Loved this song as a kid and STILL do!! His voice is 🔥 🔥 🔥
This guy has always been smooth as can be. What a Voice!!!
We concur 80s Rocker
Yes, this was the '70's. Love your reactions! You guys are gorgeous!!
Thank you so much Gillian❤️
The lead singer, Mickey Thomas, was later the lead singer for Jefferson Starship. (Jane, We Built This City, No Way Out, etc.)
Hey David, we’re going to check out Jane and we build this city😀
@@ShawnandMel4Life Sweet! Jane is a banger - We Built This City is more synth-y.
@@ShawnandMel4Life jane is THE BEST. Watch the high note he hits at the end of the guitar solo ... he sings even higher than the guitar does !!!
Not to take a jab at Jefferson Starship but Mickey seemed watered down when he joined that group, his vocals seemed average,
maybe it was the new wave of music that forced him to sing basic but at the end of the day I'd put Mickey up there with the greatest vocalists of all time.
It is Mickey Thomas that is singing! He has an amazing vocal range, even now at 80 years old. He is one of the rare few who sounds better live than the recorded version. He still gives me chills too after first hearing this masterpiece in the 1970s. Thank you for sharing! ❤❤❤
do "Jane" by Jefferson Starship. Same lead singer, Mickey Thomas.
I believehe also sang "Miracles" with Grace Slick
@@michaelpozzini6426 Great song, but that was Marty Balin on vocals.
@@jalkabre5904 Really? I always thought it was Mickey.
@@Dee-gk6zg Miracles was Marty Balin... such a good song. Mickey Thomas pretty much did everything else along with Grace.
@@jalkabre5904 I’m sorry! I thought you meant Jane! Mickey has such a great voice! All good things to you brother❤️
One of the all time classics ! This song never gets old . This live version shows the incredible vocals of Mickey Thomas . You need to listen to the studio version as well because the guitar solo is absolutely beautiful!
The singers name is Mickey Thomas. He has an incredible voice. Try “Jane” by Jefferson Starship. It also showcases his voice.
Mickey Thomas still sounds just as amazing today as he did then.
It is impossible to overstate how huge of a hit this song was in 1976. It was everywhere. Written by Elvin Bishop, who came out of the 1960's Chicago blues scene. He knew his voice would not do the song justice. So he gave it to his back up singer Mickey Thomas to sing. The rest is history. Elvin plays a 1959 candy apple red Gibson ES345. It has been his signature guitar for decades. Many of the great blues guitarist chose the ES345. Fantastic reaction S & M!! RNB
A true conneseur of the music back in the day, I see! Love the details.......saw Elvin and the band back in the day in an intimate venue. I stood right in front of Mickey...what a night.
Finally somebody that has a really great comment and knows who Elvin Bishop and Mickey Thomas are and yes a great Blues Guitarist and Mickey Thomas a Great Singer and thanks to Mel and Shawn many people get to see and appreciate these two guys
@@wildbill7081 Thank you Wild Bill. Much obliged, RNB
This was a huge hit, Mickey Thomas nailed it🎯
@@Shelley550 yes i love this song it never leaves my head now hahaha
One of my all time favorites. Summer of my youth. Emotional pain and joy. Wow!
I loved my teenage years , the music is the best ever
That man got soul coming out of every pore.
Yes it is Leno. He gives me chills
Mickey Thomas who is lead singer here is amazing. He’s now 72, can still sing amazing and performs today
Mickey Thomas has such an amazing voice- and range. He’s magical.
I love it when you young folks hear our old folks music and like it. We didnt have any voice tuners back then; it was just what ya hear is what it was. Awesome!!! Thank you for this reaction. A beautiful couple!!
I was in my teens when this came out. It is still one of my favorite songs from the 70.s.
Yes! I have loved this song since I was a teen in the 70's. Great choice. Please thank who ever recommended it to you.
Oh my Lawd, I played this song so many times when I was a teenager. Always in love or looking for love it seems as a teen. Nov 16, been married 43 years. I love him more today than the day I met him.
Love to see you react to Samson "Just leave the kids out it". Haven't seen many reactors brave enough to react to it. Samson spitting straight facts.
Well yr one of the few that have stayed together...I'm almost yr age and actually know only one couple..gay guys, lol.
Never heard of this guy, but hey, I love discovering new artists and music 🎶🎶🎶
Mickey Thomas vocals and Elvin Bishop lead guitar/solo. This is a great song. Mickey Thomas has killer vocals. This doesn’t even begin to show them. Elvin Bishop had killer guitar skills also.
In 1975 I was tending bar at a kid's joint. The guy I dated several times was the bar manager. He could have anyone he wanted and did, (me rolling my eyes, wtf I was only 19). But one night we closed a little early and went across the street to the "disco" for one last drink, and they played this song on the jukebox and he looked at me like a sudden truth had just hit him. We were only together 6 years (married 3), but this song still brings back vivid memories everytime I hear it.
Dude has a voice man....he is up there in the Stratosphere. Dam'n what a voice the lord gave him.
Saw them sometime around mid 1970s at the Top Hat in Missoula. When Mickey hit those high notes I got chills up and down my spine. Holy crap!
Born in December 1970 and so many of these songs from the ‘70’s have been hardwired in me because this song was just always there. To this day I Love it.
Born a year after you in December 1971...the 1970's had the best decade of music!
I was born Nov 1971 and I’m so glad I was raised listening to this kind of music.
Released as a single in 1976, it was all over the radio the day she waltzed into my heart. A week later, she moved in with me and I threw my book away. We "fooled around and fell in love" that week, 47 years ago. That stuff is real, y'all. We still turn it up when it comes on.
15, and met my first love when this song came out! Married him and have a beautiful daughter, and 2 grandchildren. Never forget the butterflies after all these years. Beautiful! ❤️
Best reaction I've ever seen to this song! I can sense your appreciation for it through and through!
I’ve heard this so many times over the years but never appreciated it until i saw it on another reaction channel.
I love this song too. Cuz I fooled around and fell in love and it's been the best thing to ever happen to me.
Thank you for this reaction!! One of my favorite songs. A pleasure watching you two relate to this song. Elvin Bishop was the guitar player and lead singer Mickey Thomas delivers one of the greatest vocals ever on this song. This is a classic. Ya gotta love the 70's. If you grew up in this era you were truly blessed with extraordinary music.
Beautiful music transcends all boundary's. This beautiful song found the perfect band and singers to bring it to life.
When you kissed her hand. A year. Thank you for all these trips down memory lane for this 65 yr. old.
Aww, I've always loved this song. My husband and I fooled around and fell in love, for sure, for life. I lost him last year after 44 years of marriage, 46 years of love.
Elvin Bishop on lead guitar. Mickey Thomas was a back up singer that he asked to sing lead because Elvin didn’t think his voice was right for it. Mickey has been around forever and is one of the all time greats! Thanks for recognizing!!
Are you beginning to understand why we boomers are so critical of today's music?
That voice, OMG, love. love, love Mickey Thomas, also was amazing with Starship!
Love watching reactions when I know it's an incredible song and somebody's about to get surprised😂💕
I can so relate to this song awesome reaction Mel and Shawn... a one night stand at a new yrs eve party in 1978 turned into a 42 yr. relationship our baby was murdered when i was 20 weeks along in a vicious attack our injuries were to great and she rested in the palms of my hands after 4 minutes i watched her slip away. it broke me i will never forget my daughter i still hurt and grieve her loss everyday i wish they would of finished me off but for some reason i didn't die even though i wanted to die... we and still going strong after 42 yrs soon to be 43 yrs new yrs eve. love you P.J.T. forever and always.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤reminds me of my late husband Sergio Rodriguez. Rip baby...💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
omgosh congratulations on 8 lovely years you two! this was Mom and Dad's favorite song
I have lost both of them, but this song always brings a tear to my eyes, in a good way...
Pipes! Dudes got pipes!
Great reaction!
That song has always been on of my favorite since the day it was released. I always crank the volume! And can we talk about how handsome Mikey Thomas was/is. Wow!! He has my heart!!
Shawn and Mel, you are correct, you found some gold! This song with Mickey Thomas on lead vocals and and Reni Slais singing backup harmonies is one of my all time favorite videos.
It sets your soul on fire when you find a song that relates directly to your life. I love this song. Wonderful reaction. 🥰
This was my music back in my day I still love it
Me too, Donna. That's why I have XM Radio in my car and on my cell phone. Love 70s music. When this song I was in, I was in the United States Marine Corps, loved it.
Now your getting back to my era.
Mr Mickey Thomas on vocals. Elvin Bishop wrote it and is playing lead guitar. Elvin knew Mickey had a great voice, so he was asked to sing lead and history was made. Mickey later joined Jefferson Starship and made some great songs, Jane, No way out and a few others. I believe Mickey is severally underrated. He started out singing gospel. Congratulations on 8 years of marriage!🥂
I react this way every time I hear this song!! One of the best ever. I love to put it on repeat if I'm driving a long ways. Especially at night, then I can dance and sing like crazy even though I'm driving. lol
'60s, '70s, & '80s music is the best! Such a fun time to be young! Early Happy anniversary! Feb 11, 2022 will be my parents' 67th!!
Elvin Bishop had his backup singer Mickey Thomas sing this song because he knew Mickey could sing it better, and it became the bands biggest hit! This then got Mickey the call to lead the Jefferson Starship after Grace Slick departed. If you want so see Mickey sing this song at 70 years old, search "Howard Stearn Mickey Thomas" ... it IS mindblowing!
I totally feel you guys with this song. My (now) wife & I 'fooled around' back in the day, and this year is our 21st wedding anniversary! Although we were together for almost 7 years before we finally got married. You never know when cupids arrow will hit you! Neither of us were expecting this but we're thankful every day that we 'fooled around' back then. You two are amazing as well & I wish you many happy anniversaries to come!
Oh, the memories. Mickey Thomas singing lead with Elvin Bishop and his band. Elvin handpicked Mickey to sing this, said he himself could not do it justice. I feel young again, dancing slow swing style to this in a favorite bar, ….oh my. One of my favorite songs, always. New subscriber….seeing this selection drew me in and loved seeing you two feel the value of this song and the performance. This was a live performance on The Midnight Special.
This is my all time favorite reaction video, the look on your faces when Mickey started singing is so funny lofl
just discovered the two of you i am inspired by your happy state of mind. and your love for elvin bishop guitar work and mickey''s vocals....I Love and celebrate your happiness!
I loved the way you both reacted to this song it was my wife & my wedding song
Hands down my favorite reaction ever..I love these two and how their souls are connected…these two God will bless because they are equally yoked…this song can actually be a good song for king Solomon in the Bible because he literally had a million in concubines but it took only one that took him down.🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🙏🏼
Mickey sang his heart out on this one and we all fell in love for it. But you also have to credit Elvin Bishop for pulling on those guitar strings with such sensitivity.
I loved this song when it was released and love it still.
The voice is great and hearing the guitar solo alone makes this worth listening too.
You two keep up the great entertainment! God Bless you both.
Note that this is live on the Midnight Special TV show. Elvin Bishop is the Sheriff and Mickey Thomas the incomparable lead singer. He went onto Jefferson Starship
Elvin was also the guest guitar player on the George Thorogood track I believe you reacted to" One Bourbon...One Shot...One Beer. (If not, check it out) This is way more easy listening than his usual lane.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this song!!!
The lead singer is the incomparable Mickey Thomas, a few years before he joined Jefferson Starship. This song brings back great memories of the Summer of '76!
Singer Mickey Thomas has such great vocals in everything he sings, still today.
Absolutely love this song. Love Mickey's voice so much!!
Shawn and Mel - you bring a smile to my face. 😃 Keep up the great vibes!
This is a classic. Loved loved y’all’s reaction. Song speaks a lot of truth. Y’all are such an adorable couple. You can see how much you love each other. I grew up listening to this music. Brings back a lot of memories Ty for such a beautiful reaction. Love y’all
It was game over for that player. It was time to really be happy.
This song is soooooo,70”s. Right in my wheelhouse 😎
The Midnight Special was a FABULOUS show, and Fooled Around and Fell in Love was an all-time great performance on that show!
Great Song! Great Reaction!
No auto tune just pure raw talent!
This is a GREAT SLOW DANCING SONG! Love your reaction! 👍👍👍
That's what you call real music!!!
I fooled around and fell in love 47 years ago. The year this song came out. Love has got a hold on me.
I saw this live in '76 with my girlfriend who became my wife in Tusa,Oklahoma.Elvin was living in Tulsa back then.Elvin wrote a great song and his backing singers,Mickey Thomas and Reni Simon killed it on the vocals.Elvin did sing too but not on this one,he just layed down some great guitar! Thanks you two for this!
One of my all time favorite songs. Elvin is the guitar player. Mickey Thomas is the vocalist. He was later the vocalist for Jefferson Starship. You probably know this already, but just in case 😉
I just came here to say how sweet it was to watch you react to this... Lotta love and understanding there was in that 🩷. Also, i dig Shawn's hoodie. ..It's the little things in life ~
Thats a soul brother if ever I have heard one😍❤
I love you two! If you’re not married yet this should be your first dance song at your wedding 💒
Elvin Bishop was a Norhtern California favorite. Out of San Francisco he could play several levels of Blues, Rock and Roll, and even Country. I saw him at the Oakland Coliseum ( Day on the Green) in summer of 1976. He opened for the Beach Boys.
