ANOTHER BAND PLEASE DO A REACTION TO THIS SONG AND THIS BAND FROM SOUTH AMERICA PLEASE SHOW SOME LO💚E LOS CAFRES ~ AIRE 💚💛❤ th-cam.com/video/jOv8D46ilSQ/w-d-xo.html
I think it was a nod to Paul Kossoff from Free. He died of an overdose after Free had achieved success with All Right Now and Paul Rodgers was the lead singer. He was a shooting star along with many others. As usual, Jamal has the most empathy of anyone and feels the loss and expresses it very well. I appreciate the depth of Jamals reactions. 😎🎸👏🏻
Brian Ferris...yeah to Paul Rodgers with Bad Company, no to his style working with Queen. I never thought there'd be a way to get Queens' music out there live again; Adam Lambert proved me wrong.
This ride we call rock and roll is a great one,,,,,, but it has been costly,,,,, R.I.P. to all we have lost way to soon and Thank You to ALL who have made this music such a GREAT ride !!!!!!!!
I remember exactly where I was when I first heard this. Summer of 96, interchange of I-84W and I-91S going to visit my college roommate after freshman year. “Classic rock” was just being defined as a thing, separate from oldies. Good times.
they have a ton of great songs, just good, basic, solid rock n' roll. they definitely can fill up a whole 'best of' album with only one or two so-so songs tossed in.
Do yourself a favor and check out The Firm - Satisfaction Guaranteed (The Firm is Paul Rogers and Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, the only released one album in the late 80’s.)
This is one off the legit bad ass rock n roll bands. When you listen to them you are rock n roll the way it was supposed to be. This is one of my all time favorites from a band that I absolutely love!!! Great reaction as always! I'll be "moving on" now. Thanks and have a great day!!
This song was played for and dedicated to a friend that died in a single car accident 34 years ago . he was 16 and was loved by everyone, Greg Parisella is remembered everyday and especially when I hear this song
This has got to be one of my all time favorite songs.To me Paul Rogers has got to have one ☝️ of the Greatest voices in Rock & Roll history. The man 👨 can just down right sing 🎤.
This song seems to be a comment about the ups and downs of success. Many artists can fit the description of Johnny. But it can be a picture of anyone who rises to sudden fame. James Dean comes to mind. Some do manage to overcome and live on. The fact that Ozzy Osbourne is still living, is insane considering his crazy story.
The lead guitar player is Mick Ralphs. He played in a band before this, called Mott The Hoople. They had a lot of great songs. Queen open up for Mott The Hoople shows, back in 1974.
@@hippielove3100 Yes they broke up later in1974,. Mick Ralph had already left, earlier for Bad Company. They replaced Mick Ralph with Aerial Bender on lead guitar for a while, then Mick Ronson from David Bowie band. The Spider From Mars. They came to Oklahoma City the summer of 1974.
Oh my. It's been twenty plus years or so since I've heard this song. One of my favorite bands from back in the day. Damn. Those twenty years went by like shooting star.
Heard this so many times growing up, two older sisters were Bad Co wannabe groupies lol. Fine by me, one of my favorite bands and my #1 vocalist. More Bad Company, please.
Because of his many iconic rock hits, what's overlooked is the purity and clearness of much of Paul Rodgers' delivery. He can scream and he can roar; but he can do sweet and light. Shit he can do it all.
Back in the day when I started on my Bad Company kick, I used to play this album to death. My older brothers and I used to always listen to Bad Company and Bob Seger whenever we went fishing. It didn't matter if we caught any, or not. We had some great stuff to listen to on the way back home.
If you think about it, the title gives it away. A shooting star is bright, beautiful, and brief, never to be seen again. Always loved this song. For all the members of the 27 club, rest in peace.
Yeah, once you get to the top, everyone wants something from you. The attention becomes empty and you feel alone. I really enjoy watching you. You are sincere and that is rare nowadays
Led Zeppelins 1st albums were on Atlantic Records. IV and beyond were on the Record Label, Swan Song that that Led Zeppelin created for themselves.. Straight Shooter by Bad Company was the first album to be released on Swan Song in America.
Paul Kossoff, who was Paul Rodgers' band mate in the group Free, died of a heroin overdose in 1976, a year after this was released. He was just 25 years old when he died. It's a big reason folks used to think this song was about a single person. It was basically about the pitfalls of being in the world of rock and roll.
Drugs were responsible for Paul Kossoff's declining health, but he didn't die of a heroin overdose. He died on a flight from LA to NY, from a pulmonary embolism, after a blood clot in his leg moved to his lung.
Lots of great tunes from this band. Evil Wind, Crazy Circles, Gone,Gone, Gone, Rock and Roll Fantasy, Burning Sky, Running with the Pack, Holy Water, If You Needed Somebody, Company of Strangers, Sweet Little Martha, Down and Dirty
Paul Rogers has one of rocks most impressive and versatile voices. He goes back to Free in the '70's to Bad Company to a great solo career to possibly the only voice that could sub for Freddy Mercury with Queen
FINALLY!! My favorite bad company song ever. Thanks a million. I believe this song is about Free guitarist paul kossoff. He was incredible and vastly underrated!! I remember when this album was released and to this day I find it hard to listen to this classic song. It's so heartfelt!!!😀
Oh, you gotta check out the ORIGINAL version of "Ready For Love", which BadCo guitarist Mick Ralphs recorded with his previous band, Mott The Hoople. It's on the All The Young Dudes album; Mott's version is a bit harder-edged; also, there's a bridge that BadCo left out. Plus, David Bowie played the saxophone part.
@@Clnt874 I don't know the gentleman's name but so you know at 2:20 am in stl I'm raising my drink to him and saying cheers to a shooting star I never had the privilege to meet. No shit. Gin and pomegranate. CHEERS BROTHER.
Paul Rogers, the Lead singer of Bad Company, was also in The Firm ( with Jimmy Page) and sang and toured with Queen after Freddy Mercury passed. Also was singer for Free, who had a hit with “ALL RIGHT NOW” Very talented singer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter!
One of my favorite albums is 10 from 6 by Bad Company.... It took me over a decade to figure out that 10 from 6 was a best of album... Yep... I’m somewhat dense at times. But 10 from 6 is a great best of album.
Dana Ernst I had to get my old cassette tape out and look at that... your right,,,, Update... I looked it up. The 10 songs do come from only 5 albums but, the band had 6 albums out the Album “burning sky” isn’t represented by a song on 10 from 6.
You hit the nail squarely on the head, my friend! What this song is about is making the statement that the music industry can be difficult to handle for someone that is not prepared for it. people wishing to get into it can be swept along into the depths of despair, as they try to figure out how to make it work. And if drugs and alcohol enter the picture, as it does for way too many, it becomes even more difficult to deal with. Many have ended their lives because they were unable to pull out of the path the business takes them on. Others, realize where that path leads, and have the strength to turn it all around. Those people take one of two roads forward: stepping out of the limelight and living the rest of their lives quietly, or taking charge of the way they deal with their careers in the business, making sure to end any practices that are destroying them. The lesson of this song is that you must know what you are getting yourself into before jumping in. You must think ahead, and see where it can lead, then decide for yourself which way you should go with it. The wise ones usually enjoy a long and prosperous career, if they can make sound decisions on the path they need to take.
At 5:06 I was reminded of why I like JamelJamals vids so much..because there's a song I've quite literally heard 1000 times and I know the crescendo,climax, or story's moral is coming, and (Jamel's) reaction harkens me back to MY FIRST TIME listening to the tune
Love this one, it was always on my pool hall playlist.....Whenever I was at my local hall it was on the CD jukebox, that Foreigner and George Thorogood finished it out. Good times. Gotta check out Feel like makin love from them next. more "freaky-Deaky" as you so eloquently put it....
Jamel, Paul Rogers was the lead singer for Bad Company. He has one of the best singing voices around. He did a short stint with Queen also. This is one of my favorite songs. Love listening to your channel, it makes my whole day!!! Keep rocking!
Jamal, thanks for laying out the truth about the stories in these songs. These so called "pop stars" seem to die alone in a drug induced stupor all too often. I must be the opposite...I'm 61 and have almost no friends except immediate family.I 've never been interested in the "fake friends" that some people collect and string along. Take care Bro.
63 here man and no friends. Had plenty but when things went south for me, they all kicked me to the curb. Fair weather friends I call them. Then they want to make the excuse that it's because of me, to help ease their own conscience. Meanwhile I was there for them through thick and thin, always. I say screw 'em, I'd rather be alone than have fake ass friends.
mr. jinks Better to have 4 quarters than a hundred pennies. I’m 42 and my circle is very small. VERY small. I’m not even on Facebook or any other social media other than this. Friends come and go, but this beautiful music unites! Stay safe dude :)
@@michellerobin5461 I love that saying. Never heard it before. Very wise. I don't do facebook and the others either. I have tons of acquaintances. But a tiny circle of true friends that Ive had most of my life. Thats enough for me. Family and a few true friends is all I need. You're right, music unites. I love this channel.
Omg, you finally listened to my favorite band when I was a teenager. Paul Rodgers has one of the best vocals ever. Love this band, I hope you listen to more of their songs especially from their first album titled Bad Co. That album had hit after hit.
This song... man... you think about ALL the men and women who died in their prime in the music biz, suicide, plane crashes, and on and on. This song could be about Jimi Hendrix or Curt Cobain, or a hundred others. Could you imagine the music we'd have to listen to if they all made it to retirement?
More than a few of em were murdered. The music biz is worse than the damn mafia. And all that money floating around? And all the drugs? Prime territory for deceit, greed and murder. See the doc 'Soaked in Bleach' about Cobain. People high on heroin NEVER shoot themselves. It's a high like none other. U don't ever want it to end, let alone permanently. Buddy Holly was also killed. Jimi same thing. His manager was a shit. Same with a lot of young Hollywood stars, like Freddy Prince. Really too many to name.
No. Everybody used to think that because of how close he died to the release of this song. I thought it myself for years. He died in 76 though, a year after this song was released. Rogers said it's about guys like Hendrix and the pitfalls of the industry. But it's not about any one person.
@@johntremmel3949 you're right. Pulmonary embolism when a blood clot let go in his leg. So there's another wrong rumor that had been going around for years. Although his heroin use did lead to his declining health. He was a heavy drug user from 15 on. It's not technically what killed him.
Paul Rodgers has been belting out the lyrics for many decades. I was surprised the first time I saw an interview with him, his British accent, he had always sounded like a Southern Rocker to me. There are certain moods when only a Bad Company song will do 🤗😎.
I am surprised this song took so long to make its way to me. I heard a Dr playing it in his office, and it caught my ear went home downloaded it and was blown away. Instant classic!
Paul Rogers has an amazing voice. Saw him a few years back in Virginia Beach and he delivered the goods. A performer who, early on, learned to take care of his body and to stay away from drugs. He has had a very long career, comparatively speaking.

Thank you for the link. Just ordered my shirt.
When Bad Company plays this song live, they show a montage of all the musical legends who died way too young
That's a fitting tribute. Cool
thanks for sharing that !
That’s an awesome tribute to their fallen musicians! 🙏🏼💫🙏💫🙏
Wow, I didn't realize that---I love learning new info like this---thanks!
Nice tribute. There are far too many of them, unfortunately :(
I think it was a nod to Paul Kossoff from Free. He died of an overdose after Free had achieved success with All Right Now and Paul Rodgers was the lead singer. He was a shooting star along with many others.
As usual, Jamal has the most empathy of anyone and feels the loss and expresses it very well. I appreciate the depth of Jamals reactions.
😎🎸👏🏻
Yes he does, big empathetic props to Jamal!
This song brings tears to my eyes, remembering Jimi and Stevie Ray. Rest in peace Brothers.
Don't forget RVZ.
When you see Bad Co in person, they always show pictures of musicians who died way too young. Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Mama Cass, etc.
Johnny's life passed him by like a warm summers day, and then there's Keith Richards...
😄😄😄
When Keith Richards dies.....We are all gonna smoke him..........oh the high
No drug or amount of drugs could kill Keith...
Pickled to the core.
Same thing already happened to Keith, he just hasn't noticed yet.
The song isn't necessarily about any one individual, but more about the many who had died so young ...Hendrix, Joplin, Morrison etc ......
ALL @27
Kurt Cobain was 27 also.
@@Gonzo614 shotgun by his head but yup😢
Let's not forget possibly the original 27 club member... Robert Johnson
There's one artist that no one ever mentions when they talk about rock stars that die at 27. Allan Wilson of Canned Heat.
Bad Company was another great group from the 70s. My favorite song by them is Silver, Blue and Gold! Beautiful song. 🥰
There are no words for Paul Rodgers’ voice! Saw them live back in 81 and they were fabulous!
I saw them on 2019 and he sounds the same!
“Johnny’s life passed him by like a warm summers day”
Go tell the people you love how you feel about them...while you have a chance
Paul Rogers (singer) was Freddy Mercury's personal fave. Now that's respect!!!
Freddy told him if he ever died that he wanted Rogers to sing with Queen, it looks like the fans didn't take too kindly with him singing the songs.
Freddie said same about John Farnham.How many faves has Freddie got?
Wow, how interesting! I love learning new info like this---thanks!
Paul for a while took Freddie's place in Queen.
Brian Ferris...yeah to Paul Rodgers with Bad Company, no to his style working with Queen. I never thought there'd be a way to get Queens' music out there live again; Adam Lambert proved me wrong.
Thats paul Rodgers on vocals, he should aiways be in the conversation when we talk about best male rock vocalists IMO
"The needle and the damage done" Neil Young ... the Rock and Roll lifestyle .
Paul Rodger's voice is amazing.
*Rodgers'
The gigs he did fronting Queen are something special. He has one of the great male rock voices.
He comes very close to Freddy mercury always liked this song.
got to watch him live. Best show ever.
Even now, he still sounds awesome. He puts on a great show!
Paul Rodgers, one of the best voices in rock n’ roll
Hands down, without any doubt, one of the greats!
I remember seeing an interview with Robert Plant...said Paul was his favorite!
Freddie Mercury's favorite voice!
Amen!!
Agree and nice Gadsden flag ! Rock on Free
Paul Rodgers had one of the best rock voices ever.
"Burning Sky "... trust me Jamel.
"Rock And Roll Fantasy"
Yes. Burning Sky. Excellent song.
burning sky, hands down. Amazing intro
A shooting star passes through the sky and dies just as It's the brightest!!!!
This song never fails to make me think of Jimi Hendrix
for real! 😔
Yep. Paul Rogers said the lyrics were inspired by Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison. Incidentally Jimi's birth name is Johnny Allen Hendrix
And all the other ones that fell beneath the feet of fame. God bless.
I never made that connection, but... yeah. Damn. The 27 club, damn shame.
@Joe Pitt whatever hahaha
This ride we call rock and roll is a great one,,,,,, but it has been costly,,,,, R.I.P. to all we have lost way to soon and Thank You to ALL who have made this music such a GREAT ride !!!!!!!!

Yeah I really like that one too
Another deep cut is Seagull, a slow but good one.
Seagull one of my favorites, Paul's voice and that beautiful acoustic guitar, can't go wrong!
My favorite!!!
th-cam.com/video/y3diEm3Z7ZU/w-d-xo.html Silver, Blue and Gold

they have a ton of great songs, just good, basic, solid rock n' roll. they definitely can fill up a whole 'best of' album with only one or two so-so songs tossed in.
Also they were Led Zeppelin’s 1st signed under ZoFo

Foreigner - "Jukebox Hero" is a good one. Its a bit of a happier ending than this song.
I think he did it already but I could be thinking of another reactor
He did, but it wasn't the Lou Gramm version. Ugh.
I admit, I was dying to see the reaction to the third verse when Johnny died.... always makes me sad as well.
"Feel Like Makin' Love" is a great Bad Co. song.
"We are stardust, We are golden....."

I say screw 'em, I'd rather be alone than have fake ass friends.
mr. jinks Better to have 4 quarters than a hundred pennies. I’m 42 and my circle is very small. VERY small. I’m not even on Facebook or any other social media other than this. Friends come and go, but this beautiful music unites! Stay safe dude :)
@@michellerobin5461 Very true. Be well.
Same here. I live on a desert island, I've been training for quarantine for years
@@michellerobin5461 I love that saying. Never heard it before. Very wise. I don't do facebook and the others either. I have tons of acquaintances. But a tiny circle of true friends that Ive had most of my life. Thats enough for me. Family and a few true friends is all I need. You're right, music unites. I love this channel.
Omg, you finally listened to my favorite band when I was a teenager. Paul Rodgers has one of the best vocals ever. Love this band, I hope you listen to more of their songs especially from their first album titled Bad Co. That album had hit after hit.
Shooting star was one of my first VINYLS i ever bought! Im a Bad Company-phile...and PROUDLY SO!!
One of the greatest voices in rock!
More Bad Company!
one of those rock and roll "success" story songs...
No it's not it's about the failure,dead people can't make music.
I highly recommend Bad Company- Burning Sky. Great tune in headphones.
One of my favourite songs of all time. Absolutely beautiful lyrics. Make you appreciate how special life is
Paul Rodgers is my all time favourite vocalist. I've been hoping you would do this one for quite some time.
Nicely reviewed Jamal. One of THE great rock and roll songs of ALL time...and a tragedy. This song always breaks my heart....
Paul Rogers is one of Rock music Quintessential voices. Unmistakable, soulful, bluesy, and kick ass
So many outstanding Bad Co. songs. One of my all time favorites is "The way I choose".
Thanks for digging deeper. It seems most people here only know the songs the radio played to death.
Paul Rodgers is one of the most underrated voices in all of music. I think he's as good as Freddie no doubt
He's good, but not even in the same ballpark as Freddie Mercury.
i don't think i'd go that far, lol, but he's a great vocalist, very distinctive. i saw him and jimmy page when they did their 'the firm' tour.
@@tazmom0 Subjective...
I got a chance to see Paul Rodgers at a local festival years ago. One of the greatest rock vocalists ever !!
I still get goosebumps listening to this. 👏👏👏👏
This song... man... you think about ALL the men and women who died in their prime in the music biz, suicide, plane crashes, and on and on. This song could be about Jimi Hendrix or Curt Cobain, or a hundred others.
Could you imagine the music we'd have to listen to if they all made it to retirement?
More than a few of em were murdered. The music biz is worse than the damn mafia. And all that money floating around? And all the drugs? Prime territory for deceit, greed and murder. See the doc 'Soaked in Bleach' about Cobain. People high on heroin NEVER shoot themselves. It's a high like none other. U don't ever want it to end, let alone permanently. Buddy Holly was also killed. Jimi same thing. His manager was a shit. Same with a lot of young Hollywood stars, like Freddy Prince. Really too many to name.
Same album straight shooter “good lovin gone bad” is excellent !
Much better than Shooting Star, to me.
I am so glad bad company is finally being given attention they are fabulous........
So much emotion put into this, especially in the ad lib almost an emotional overload
Shooting stars, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Keith Moon, Jim Morrison, Mama Cass, etc
Paul Kossoff .. RIP 💫
Ronnie Van Zant
John Henry Bonham.
It is about former bandmate in Free, Paul Kossoff.
No. Everybody used to think that because of how close he died to the release of this song. I thought it myself for years. He died in 76 though, a year after this song was released. Rogers said it's about guys like Hendrix and the pitfalls of the industry. But it's not about any one person.
I LOVE Koss, but not about him even though the lyrics would make it seem that way.
I loved "Free" .. Back when I was younger, late 70's...they played at my aunt's high school. I remember her coming home with the posters.
Except he died of natural causes
@@johntremmel3949 you're right. Pulmonary embolism when a blood clot let go in his leg. So there's another wrong rumor that had been going around for years. Although his heroin use did lead to his declining health. He was a heavy drug user from 15 on. It's not technically what killed him.
Paul Rodgers has been belting out the lyrics for many decades. I was surprised the first time I saw an interview with him, his British accent, he had always sounded like a Southern Rocker to me. There are certain moods when only a Bad Company song will do 🤗😎.
I am surprised this song took so long to make its way to me. I heard a Dr playing it in his office, and it caught my ear went home downloaded it and was blown away. Instant classic!
This is about the 27 club artist who passed at the age of 27 Janis Joplin, Jimmie Hendrix and Jim Morrison
Amy Whitehouse.
@@mljones655 We can't forget Kurt Cobain
We can't forget Kurt Cobain.
This is still relevant today. We’re always hearing of famous folks who have died, overdose, suicide, or accident.
Shooting Star 🌠 One of the all time great Rock & Roll songs ❤👍
Paul Rogers has an amazing voice. Saw him a few years back in Virginia Beach and he delivered the goods. A performer who, early on, learned to take care of his body and to stay away from drugs. He has had a very long career, comparatively speaking.
