The song which was so powerful for a broken 12 year old child to hear.
It's still a goosebumps experience.
Thank you Hari❤
Thank you for sharing your pain. I hope you have healed.
This band needs to be in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
One of many notable snubs, through Three Dog Night was mostly pop music. Edgier bands like Supertramp, Jethro Tull, Kansas, Thin Lizzy, Styx, Blue Oyster Cult,Foreigner probably deserve to be selected in before them. R&RHOF is a joke anyway.
@@chuckhutton5087 It is a joke since country and hip hop are in it.
@@TheGreatGig73 exactly right; it truly is a farce, an insult to the very concept of rock and roll.
Most definately.
@@chuckhutton5087 - I disagree. All of the bands mentioned deserve to be inducted even though the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland is a joke.
The city of Cleveland NEVER defined or represented Rock n Roll except for maybe Joe Walsh.
Why the Hell is this Group NOT in the H.O.F.!!! Gross injustice!!
Because the RRHOF is a joke.
I agree with you, should be in the HOF, with so many hits!
This song displays Chuck Negron's great vocals he is the one with the mustache. The three lead singers had great harmony singing. Three Dog Night had a ton of hits back in the 70's. I seen them live several times and they put on great shows. Easy to be hard and Mama told me not to come is one of my favorites.👍👍
I love this song but it makes me cry. Made me cry back then, even as a kid - and made me cry tonight. Wishing our society could be just a little bit kinder....
This is from the musical "Hair".
The vocalists get the limelight, but the instrumentalists were just as integral. They were a complete band, and all were masters of their craft.
You're THE BEST Harri, you react in Perfect Timing and, best of all, you know when to remain silent, while savoring his voice and the strong emotions I felt from him and along with you. Thank YOU for being so sensitive and respectful, I enjoyed each and every second of it (I never heard that song before) EXQUISITE SPLENDID AWESOME all the way! 🫴🫴🫴🙏🕊️💎👑💎🕊️🙏🫴🫴🫴
The message is more relevant than ever now!
Yes, makes me think of the Genocide going on in Gaza by the idf.
@@user-kt1ox3im7e Politics is tricky. It is easy to get caught on one side or the other. Killing children is hard to justify on either side. Remember who started this genocide.
Maybe 'The Knife' is a better song to illustrate my point (from the band Genesis). A knife can cut either way.
Well, from what I've been reading, while the israeli soldiers have killed mostly civilians, the palestinians target the israelis. That's what I'm reading. I'm reading a book "The hundred years' war on Palestine," by Rashil Khalidi. I'm trying to look at both sides, but I still side with the Palestinians.
Gorgeous song by 3DN. Excellent choice Terry Wyatt. 👍👍👍
Three Dog Night had many hits. Easy To Be Hard was their third hit of 1969, followed by their 4th, Eli's Coming. Another great song, which, BTW, was written by Laura Nyro, & first released on her fabulous 1968 LP, Eli & The Thirteenth Confession. If you haven't listened to that album yet, treat yourself. You'll be so glad you did!!!!!
The first time I heard the song was in the movie "Hair" and was sung by a woman. My favorite song fron the movie.
Then I heard Three Dog Night version. Very good as well.
Sung by Cheryl Barnes in the movie Hair. Movie audiences gave her performance standing ovations, which rarely occurs in a cinema.
Great song! The version from the "Live" album is really amazing!! Originally from the musical "HAIR." A girl sings it about a guy who is all into "social justice" but is cruel/dismissive of her.
At the forum? Great album!
Many people love humanity, but hate people.
That girl is Cheryl Barnes
Saw Hair on stage in London, England in 1972.
@johnbrowne2170 Amazing my younger teachers at our high school displayed the soundtrack to prove they were still cool. I believe my wife saw the OG cast perform, too (I did not). She really appreciated Nell Carter!
Cheryl Barnes was the lady who sang the song in "Hair". Very moving.
My favorite song of a lot of great songs of the 3 Dog Night was "Eli's Coming" !
This would be a beautiful and powerful song to re-release today. Timeless message.
#4 in 69, and certainly one of if not THE very best song IMO in their catalog. I love it, Chuck Negron was amazing.
So many great songs came from that Hippi Musical Hair. Still love the original soundtrack versions, but Three Dog Night covered this one brilliantly.
Great reaction to a great song. I've always liked Three Dog Night and saw them in concert once. In my opinion this is their best song, and I'm so glad that you reacted to it. This song is so beautiful and heart felt, that I almost get tears in my eyes. Many people doing reactions, that react to Three Dog Night songs, don't have enough sense to react to this one. Again I'm glad that someone finally did.
Incredible vocals by Chuck N.
The mighty Chuck Negron, one of the voices for Three Dog Night, him and Cory were the killers on those hits.
Yet another song that stands the test of time.
My personal favourite Three Dog Night songs were "One (is the loneliest number)" and "Eli's Coming".
It's such a beautiful song. It really reminds me of my youth.
Chuck Negron is one of the greatest singers ever in my opinion. Cory Welles and Danny Hutton are great also. Very successful group from 68 maybe to 75. Cory did a phenomenal job covering Try a Little Tenderness by Otis Redding.
Also for Cory, “ELI’s Coming”!
I still knew every word after 45 years! Love 3DN!
The song is from the off broadway musical play; "Hair". I happened to be standing on Broadway when that was playing with a couple of Marine comrades of mine. Instead of going to see "Hair" we decided to go to a theater and watch "Tora-Tora_Tora". A decision I regret to this day!
It’s funny how as we age we regret decisions not made. Retired military here, and I can tell if I had been with you guys I would have seen the movie too. “ Hair” was a polar opposite portrayal of life than what Marines experienced back then. Can’t see how it would’ve been pleasant at all.
Amazing song. Great vocals by Chuck.
Agreed! Chuck should have won an award for his vocal performance on this song!!!
You can hear each lyrical line saturating Chuck Negron's soul. And it was delivered in the most compassionate way! The organ finale culminates the song's strong message! CLASSIC!!!!
The vocals in this...💥🔥🔥🔥🌟 Your comment Harri about the children...😥...that last note ALWAYS gets ya!👍🏻
Another one from my youth. Brings me back to the days when I went around with rose colored glasses until life taught me lessons - just like described in the song. Touches deep in the heart
Great comment. Right there with ya.
Excellent comment!
I was only 2 when this came out, but a timeless, relevant song.
Three Dog Night, Grand Funk Railroad and The Guess Who are the trifecta of a 70's classic rock genre. I made a mix tape of those 3 bands. One of my favorites.
My mom loved it too since it was her generation. 🙂
Awesome choices of bands!
@@roberthalpern5454 - 🙂
Best moustache in rock and roll, and a great voice.
This song has always been of my favourites of Three Dog Night and made me fall in love with Chuck Negron. ❤
Originally sung by Lynne Kellogg in 1968 in the Rock musical Hair, the emotion Chuck poured into this version is so emotional and pulls at your heart strings. 😢 Such a sad song that sadly still sums up our world situation today. 😢 From their 1969 album, "Suitable For Framing', this song jumped up the charts, Number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100's and Number 1 in Canada.
Three Dog Night had 21 songs on the Billboard Top 40's, 3 made it to Number 1.
Beautiful instrumentation from start to finish, ❤ , Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Terry. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
That man's voice has always knocked me out. Three Dog Night is a big part of the soundtrack to my life (& for millions of others). They were one of those very few bands where nobody would, or could, make fun of you for liking. I know of no one who didn't dig them.
A beautifully performed song and a sad commentary of society.
I GREW UP WITH THIS BAND AND THEY ARE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE OF ALL TIME!
Terry - Your wonderful submission is one of my favorites of the 80s. Bravo! Great review, Harri.
How can people be so heartless, how can people be so cruel, .... because it’s easy !
WE ALL NEED A FRIEND! Ain't that the truth, brothers and sisters!!!!!!!
"I Never Dreamed You'd Leave in Summer ", a powerful 3 Dog Night song.
A Stevie Wonder song
“Pieces of April” from Three Dog Night is similar to that song maybe?
@@kenennis6287Stevie sang it at Michael Jackson’s funeral. And it was so appropriate.
🥰🥰🥰 Love Three Dog Night!
“ Out in the Country” has always been my favorite song from Three Dog Night. Danny, Cory and Chuck were indeed a force to be reckoned with in the 70’s and 80’s . Saw them on a twin bill with America in the mid 80’s. Great show. Loved the reaction, Hari. Your empathy towards children is very genuine and awesome. Please go see the movie “ Sound of Freedom “ while it in theatres, hopefully in the UK soon. Cheers from the US
I saw them with Rare Earth in the mid-80s in Morgantown, WV.
I saw them play with America also and I thought they went in the wrong order. Three Dog Night got everybody all peppy and then you got so many slower tunes like "Horse With No Name" coming from America. It was a great show anyway, but I've always thought America should have gone first.
@@anneschreck5136 Good point. Maybe that’s why my girlfriend back then thoughtAmerica was the better group, being last up. Interesting. Both bands were great. So what’s your opinion regarding Chuck Negron? He has tried for decades to be back in the band, ever since he cleaned himself up.
❤️
@@chuckhutton5087 I think Chuck was such an integral part of the band, but it's hard to know what he put the others through during his addiction. I always loved his singing and I would think they would have loved to have him back, if there weren't things affecting the decision that we'll never know.
Great choice. This is sort of a lost classic. Beautiful song.
One of the great songs from one of the greatest groups.
Wow🤙🏽Brudah, I slow dance to this in high school. Amazing first take! Mahalo 😂
Beautiful song.
Nice memory from my teens. Thanks Harri. Great choice 🌺✌️
You'd love the live version of "Eli's Coming", one of their best that will send shivers down your spine.
Great live band music sounds great 3 singers make a big difference
You're one of the few reactors who actually listens to the lyrics! Love you for it.
Cathyortiz is right. It is from the musical Hair! You might want to explore the other single's covered from that musical!
Wow. First time hearing this. Very deep and beautiful.
I saw Three Dog Night in concert 3 times in the early 70’s. They are all amazing singers and put out a lot if hits. I recommend “Joy to the World” by this great trio. I’m really enjoying your channel. Thanks for doing what you do.
Harri, this is my favorite by 3 Dog Night. I love that you feel it, you get it ✌️🎶💙
Three Dog Night , Naturally was my first album to buy
Chuck is one with mustache, Corey Wells sitting frong, Danny Hutton on the left.
This song is from the musical Hair.
Yes!! Fully engaged. All in. Great song, great vocalists delivering award-worthy performances, superb band. Any version from a cast of 'Hair', whether the original cast or another, is well worth a listen too.
😘🤙🎶❤️✨️🕊
Love this song. And it was written over 50 years ago. **sigh**
This song is originally from the musical Hair and as usual, Three Dog Night knocked it out of the park.
Love this song ❤
Love This 1970s Song, Feel the Music.
Exactly a perfect rendition of this beautiful song from the musical 'Hair'.
Always been my favorite 3 Dog Night song.Interesting this song was being played at the beginning of the movie Zodiac whom was an heartless killer whom has never been caught in over 50 years.
TDN can sound so different with each song. Great choice Harri! Great analysis and reaction Harri!
my all time fav of many by these guys.
Great choice !!! My all-Time favorite Band.
Just saw them past Nov. Danny Hutton is the only original singer left in the group. Chuck Negron is the lead singer of this song. Loved Corey's version of Try A Little Tenderness, early version live
Beautiful song
Brings me back to my childhood and am radio
The soul, the passion, the feeling, Harri, spot on. Now are you ready for One is the Loneliest Number?????
Another poignant reminder of how easy it is for humans to be cold, cruel and heartless. It is so easy to be those things. It is truly hard to care, to empathize, to be selfless, to love and to seek peace. I wonder if a certain politician is listening? I wonder of societies around the world are listening? Such powerful stuff from Three Dog Night❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Beautifully articulated!
I saw them sing that song live.BEAUTIFUL! YOU NEED TO HEAR THE VERSION FROM THE MOVIE!! ALSO I GOT LIFE!!
This was a beautiful performance. We lost the feeling in musical performances today due to autotune.
Como no recordar grandioso hermozo my escuela y amigo my Colonia bendeck comayaguela d.c
Honduras ♥️ 🇭🇳 ♥️ anoz lindos my novia 1973 the best thing about this ♥️ excellent work experience my bids por ziempre te ♥️
Probably my favorite three dog night song. Wonderful tune.
A very emotional and powerful song. Very well sung and produced.
Three Dog Night is an American rock band from the 60's-70's. This band had a lot of energy. They had 3 guys with great voices that could all sing lead vocals. You've done quite a few of their songs. Some others are "An Old Fashioned Love Song", "Joy To The World", "Celebrate", "Liar", "Black & White" etc.
Yes, goosebumps. What a powerful vocal. Almost a religious experience.
this song was sung in the movie “HAIR” simply beautiful 😊😊
This song is superb.
This song, Easy to Be Hard, you need to watch live! If you think you hear emotion, his face adds even more, Chuck Negron's face always gave every song he sang told a total story that it belonged to him alone!!!! ❤❤❤
Amazing vocals
Love it!
This Song has always stuck with Me ever since I heard it, at age 12. I'm now a Songwriter with 5 CD's out, and Songs like this, with powerful, meaningful lyrics set me on my Songwriting journey!
Three Dog Night's song had SO much substance! They were ahead of their time with meaningful messages in their music...in a time when their was SO much unrest...the Vietnam War, early years after Civil Rights Laws were enacted and more!! Great lead vocals by Chuck Negron! Three Dog Night has SO many great hits!!! The band had 21 Billboard Top 40 hits between 1969 and 1975! It's a TRAVESTY of the music world that they are not in the Rock & Roll HOF!!! Chuck Negron was right, "Easy to be COLD!!"
3 dog night After the Beatles , the best
I have always enjoyed TDN. I began listening to them as a kid and continue to the present day. They have a vast array of music and they are very talented.
Chuck Negron (the one with the mustache) was a fine singer wiith the group and he still is ! Check him out on youtube. He is still singing solo today and very healthy after a lifetime of drug abuse. Divine Intervention
This song is from the play hair originally
Ty brother Harri...spot on!
I remember this one too! Nice! 😊😊
The singer is Chuck Negron and I heard he sang this song on the first take. Aretha Franklin was famous for getting songs on her first take as well
This was a powerful song back in the days and today as well.
I grew up listening to them. All three vocalists were truly amazing! 🔥 The ending of this song is very powerful! ….the Echo of his voice!
God bless
Some context to the lyrics, this song is in the libretto of the musical HAIR, and was sung onstage by a woman. She had a baby out of wedlock with her boyfriend, who has just left her with the child. Basically it is heartbreaking in a way that women have always understood, to this day. I remember sobbing when it was performed. I saw the play in 1971 in Seattle and a couple of my friends were in the cast. It can be generalized to all people and Chuck Negron gives an amazing performance.
That’s why I like 3 dod n
A perfect song for our time today! We can learn a lot from these words of wisdom from 50 years ago.
