Barry was known for his deep voice & romantic image. He had a lot of songs especially in the 70's such as "You're The First, The Last, My Everything", "I'm Gonna Love You Just a Bit More, Baby", "Never, Never Gonna Give You Up", "What Am I Gonna Do With You", "Let The Music Play" etc.
I heard somewhere that when his voice changed as a teenager, he didn't go through the awkward crackly phase that most boys go through, his voice just DROPPED like a stone. Scared the cr@p out of his mother the first time he said "'morning Mom" with those pipes!
He was known as "The Maestro of Love". Barry White did it all. Not only was he a superstar on his own, he also wrote and produced the music for the Love Unlimited Orchestra, including their #1 classic "Love's Theme", as well as the successful girl group "Love Unlimited", which featured his then wife Glodean. As you can tell, his entire career was all about spreading a message of love. As the 70's came to a close, his career fell off quite a bit, but he managed to mount a decent comeback in the 90's. He was one of the giants of the 70's, and one of the early architects of what would come to be known as disco (although he strongly objected to being classified as a disco artist).
Now you understand why this artist Barry White is the go-to music when you want to be romantic with your loved one!! I don't believe there are many women on the planet that do not just melt instantly when they hear this man's voice!!
Back in the late sixties and early seventies on a date,I would after I put on a Barry record I would always say,come on Barry help me out.nother good Barry song is my first,my last,my everything.
There is no comparison of the Barry's. They are each so wonderfully different. And from two totally different genres. We can LOVE THEM BOTH! No competition or comparison.
Barry. What a voice, what a vibe. This man could have sung his shopping and errand list and it would have been great. RIP big man. "I have to buy...canned soup and tomatoes..."
Barry White was a music mogul. He set the blueprint for others to follow like Prince. He was a writer, singer, producer, composer, musician and orchestra conductor. Not only did he have success as an artist, he also had success with The Love Unlimited Orchestra and the girl group Love Unlimited that his wife was in. LUOs hit "Love's Theme" from 1974 helped kick off the Disco era.
Barry's a legendary unique vocal talent. He brings that sexy bass vocal to a Quincy Jones collaboration, "Secret Garden" which is like a romantic song in the style of we are the World with Legends. 😉
Other Valentine Day gems are "Reunited" by Peaches and Herb, "Cupid" by Sam Cooke", "Turn Off the Lights" by Teddy Pendergrass, "Always and Forever" by Heatwave and "Valentine Love" by Micheal Henderson
FINALLY, you complete the Barry trifecta (with Gibb and Manilow)! I knew you would love Barry White. I daresay more babies were made to his music than any other artist in the 70s. :) "You're the First, the Last, My Everything" is maybe one of the most romantic songs of all time. I hope you do that one next! That BARITONE!
This song was responsible for a lot of "baby making" back in the 70's. The man's voice is like velvet! Also check out his songs "I'm Gonna Love You Just a Little Bit More, Baby", "You're The First, The Lat, My Everything", "I've Got So Much to Give", "It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next to Me" & his version of "Just the Way You Are". Perfect Valentine's soundtrack.
Barry's vocals, backed by the beautiful Love Unlimited Orchestra, make this one really special. It went all the way to Number One in 1974. I just love the orchestration and production on this one. It has gotten better with age, like all of Barry's music. May he rest in peace.
I love Barry White!!! Ironically, my favorite Barry White hit has no vocals...It's called "Love's Theme" by Love Unlimited Orchestra, and it was composed and produced by Barry. Aside from that gem..."The First, The Last, My Everything", his cover of Billy Joel's "Just The Way You Are" is almost as perfect as the original, "Let The Music Play", "I've Got So Much To Give", "Never, Never Gonna Give Ya Up"...oh, man...so many amazing songs and tunes. The man was a genius.
"Ironically, my favorite Barry White hit has no vocals...It's called "Love's Theme" by Love Unlimited Orchestra" That's my favorite, too! And wasn't that the theme to ABC's Wide World of Sports?
@@wyattetzel926 yes… I’m not around a lot of young people often enough to see what they’re learning about music unless I’m watching these videos. I personally enjoy music all the way back to the 1930’s. I hope that young people can also go back to way before our time as well.
We've been socially engineered intentionally. There are forces that do not want us elevating and respecting one another. Look at the differences from the 1970's and now.
I had the pleasure of meeting him at a record store signing. I got there early and he was just getting setup (or his crew were setting up). He was standing off to the side and I introduced myself as a fan (I bought his latest release) and we chatted for a few. Such a generous and sweet man. Just the genuine thing. They say you shouldn't meet your heroes (often they don't live up to your ideal), but in White's case, he was so much more. A true gem of a man! He is sorely missed.
They don't make 🎵 or voices like this anymore. Barry is a romantic person. Classic lyrics. Lyrics are trashy now. You are right about the music now. No respect for women. Women nowadays have no respect for themselves.
No no no, You’re my first my last my everything! Is definitely Barry Whites hit that will make goosebumps crawl up your arms and bring that perpetual smile across your face yes yes yes!!
Barry White also formed The Love Unlimited Orchestra. His orchestra’s music often backed his own songs but had some hits under their own name. Barry sometimes would conduct the orchestra! Brings back good memories from the 70’s 😉😊
Barry White had a full Orchestra of over 20 musicians winds strings percussion, his orchestrations were amazing. He co-wrote a song called “Love's Theme" is an instrumental piece and recorded by White's The Love Unlimited Orchestra group and released in 1973 as a single. It is one of the few instrumental and purely orchestral singles to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Nice to see today's youth enjoying this. At a tragic 61 years old, I have to be careful, because I am simply not capable of hearing this song without my entire body bopping to the rhythm!! The song itself is just so darned simple, but when all of the pieces are put together the effect is to just wrap itself around your body and soul! RIP Barry - you made some amazing classics!
The 70s has to be the best decade for music even though I am a child of the 80s. Between the classic rock, the southern rock, the progressive rock, the jazzy rock, the soulful R&B, the rich country sound, the danceable funk and disco, raging punk rock, the fun pop music, and the deep singer/songwriter music, (I'm sure I missed one or two major genres) there just isn't any decade that can compare to the variety of amazing music that defined the decade.
The 50'-60's laid the solid foundation on the blues frame. The late 60's-70's was the era of the virtuoso musicians. The Frampton's, Page's, Clapton's, Cambell's, et al poured years into mastery of there instrument and it shows. Problem is, kids have a hard time putting that much effort in. They stripped it down and simplified it ... that's the 80's
I think you two will really enjoy you're the first you're the last my everything by Barry White same type of funk upbeat tempo but somehow you put his voice on top of it and it makes everything sensual
When I was a teenager in the ‘80’s, my parents bought a new car, it was the nicest car we ever had! It had a sunroof AND an 8-track stereo system in it! We all used to drive around town, windows down, sunroof open and blasting Barry White!❤️ 🎼🎶🎵🎶🎼🎵❤️ Those we’re the days!! Thanks for the walk down memory lane!!😊 Definitely, definitely, need to listen to ‘You’re the First, the Last, My Everything’!!
Barry is a legend. You truly should dive more into his music. Picking up with something like "Your Sweetness, Is My Weakness". He had so many great tunes.
Barry White was one of the most prolific artists of the mid 70's. My favourite Barry tune was his first top 10 on the Pop charts, " I'm Gonna Love You A Little More". With the his band the Love Unlimited Orchestra and his backing band Love Unlimited, with his then wife Glodean James, who was the lead singer of Love Unlimited (hits - Walking In the Rain and I Belong to You). Many of us will remember Never Gonna Give You Up, What am I Gonna Do With You, My First, My Last, My Everything, Standing In the Shadows of Love etc..
You really hit the nail on the head with your explanation of the difference between this old love song being sweet and respectful etc. And if it came on the radio in the family car, it wouldn’t be a problem if the kids happened to hear it.👍👍. I’m 69 and still enjoy his songs😍😍
Jay and Amber. CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF YOUR LOVE, BABE/Barry White charted at #1 (Billboard Hot 100) in 1974. Here are some more of his big hits you can check out: I'M GONNA LOVE YOU JUST A LITTLE MORE BABY/Barry. This song charted at #3 (Billboard Hot 100) in 1973. NEVER, NEVER GONNA GIVE YA UP/Barry White. This song charted at #7 (Billboard Hot 100) in 1974. YOU'RE THE FIRST, THE LAST, MY EVERYTHING/Barry White. This song charted at #2 (Billboard Hot 100) in 1975. WHAT AM I GONNA DO WITH YOU/Barry White. This song charted at #8 (Billboard Hot 100) in 1975. IT'S ECSTASY WHEN YOU LAY DOWN NEXT TO ME/Barry White. This song charted at #4 (Billboard Hot 100) in 1977. Enjoy.
He totally earned/deserved his moniker..... "THE MAESTRO (of LOVE)" He has a great personal story....growing up in Watts (S. Central, LA) spending time in jail, then leaving the gang life. While in jail, he listened to Elvis Presley singing "It's Now or Never" on the radio, an experience he later credited with changing the course of his life. Soon after he started his music career!!!
Of all the beautiful songs that we had back in the 70's Loves Theme an instrumeltal by Barry White is considered the anthem of the 70's please listen to it and give us your reaction, thank you very much☺
Not only the tone of his rich deep voice this man was very intelligent. He knew he needed to maintain control of his music and managed to become an owner a recording studio and waiting for someone else to make him a star. Barry and Bob Seger became the mega talents through hard work and keeping their eye on the prize. It may have taken years to attain but the outcome was the best.
Thank you for your valentine day’s gift!!!! Haven’t heard this in a long time, loved it when young, and enjoyed it now I’m older (70)…. Good music is hard to find, when you do, hold it close to your heart!!! Happy Valentine’s Day!!!!!
Another great song 🎵by Barry White is My first, My last, My everything. Jordan I think it will make you think of the lovely lady to your left. Listen 🎶and see what I mean.
Barry White - The Maestro, was my Dad's favorite singer. Barry is partly the reason why I have 3 beautiful little sisters, if you catch my drift! His voice and arrangements are pure magic! Casting another vote for Barry White featured in Quincy Jones' Secret Garden!
Barry made some great love songs, including one with his side project, Love Unlimited Orchestra, called "Love's Theme," which is a Funky instrumental, with orchestra, that was a huge hit and IS the theme of love. You will both love it. This amazing song soars but it also bops. It's like a Soul orchestra and very memorable. ❤🎶
Barry White .. the smooth operator. Luv his songs. Agree with many here .. next check out "You're my first, my last, my everything". Happy Valentine's Day y'all. Peace Out ✌🏼💓
Perfect choice for Valentines Day❣️I remember dancing to that song in high school and listening to this album over and over again.... yes, I am that old 😉😘😘
Immediately after I was born, my father introduced me to Barry's music, and I've been living with his music for 45 years now. There is nothing better❤❤❤
Absolutely thrilled you’ve finally reacted to Barry White, keep going there are so many more gems to listen too! ♥️ I was so incredibly lucky to have seen him in concert, still adore his music and the way it to connects to my childhood memories 🥰
Love Love love Barry White. I willing to go out on a limb here but I bet there were a whole lot more babies conceived to Barry White than Barry Gibb and I'm a big Bee Gees fan. His voice is so smooth. Romance lost a great when Barry White passed away. Barry was great romance singer.
Love the reaction!! This song will always be Special to Me! My husband sang this song to me on the day I got married!! Been together for 42 Years married for 25 of those Years!! 2 children 4 grandchildren later!! This song will always be one of my favorites!!! 🌺🌺🌺🌺
Barry White! The smoothest ever! The next Barry White song you should react to is “You’re the first, the last, my everything”. You guys will love it.
YESSSSSSS!!!!!
💯
You’re The First, The Last, My Everything
Think the version of that song they should do is the duet with Pavarotti those 2 voices together mold so well together
Absolutely. His best in my opinion.
Listen to Barry White with his Love Unlimited Orchestra. I was young, but my love for string instruments came from seeing him live with his orchestra.
Barry was known for his deep voice & romantic image. He had a lot of songs especially in the 70's such as "You're The First, The Last, My Everything", "I'm Gonna Love You Just a Bit More, Baby", "Never, Never Gonna Give You Up", "What Am I Gonna Do With You", "Let The Music Play" etc.
ALL great songs!
And the inspiration for the Chef character from South Park....😉
I love all those songs, but you left out my personal favorite " Practice what you preach".
@@armynurseboy Chef was Isaac Hayes another r & b singer from the 70's.
Dagmar S ALL fantastic songs.
This world is big enough to love and appreciate both Barry’s. Gibb and White.
Barry White's voice is as thick as molasses and as smooth as honey. Even guys like his vocals.
I heard somewhere that when his voice changed as a teenager, he didn't go through the awkward crackly phase that most boys go through, his voice just DROPPED like a stone. Scared the cr@p out of his mother the first time he said "'morning Mom" with those pipes!
Barry White - pure unadulterated sensuality with not a hint of vulgarity

I thought it was The Walrus of Love.
@@DazzleMonroe, as well!😁🤣
Been around the world & I I I can’t find my baby! and I don’t know and I don’t know Why! Well she’s gone away! Barry White wrote that for who? 💔🎶🎶🎶🎶💙
@@jameslemmons9737 Lisa Stansfield
Nothing increases the population faster than throwing a Barry White CD in the player.
Barry White and Lou Rawls so Deep and Smooth!!!
"That's some baby making music!"
Every time Amber smiles she lights up the room! My boy "J", you best realize just what you got there. The girl is a queen!
You are absolutely "telling it like it is!"
Oh yeah. Absolutely!
Barry White could set a romantic mood by reading a phone book.
I got a nice chuckle out of that.
😂😂😂
Now you understand why this artist Barry White is the go-to music when you want to be romantic with your loved one!! I don't believe there are many women on the planet that do not just melt instantly when they hear this man's voice!!
I'm 73; back in 'the day', Johnny Mathis had the same effect- if you don't know his work, I suggest you give him a try- start with 'CHANCES ARE'!!
Ahh...Johnny Mathis. You REALLY want to listen to him! Extraordinary at all times.
@@jerrihadding2534 I would not be on this planet if it wasn’t for a Johnny Mathis record lol
Donma Summer and Barry White, the king and queen of disco.
So, so, so, true!! ❤ 😊 👍
Barry might be the king of "Baby-making" music.😂
Back in the late sixties and early seventies on a date,I would after I put on a Barry record I would always say,come on Barry help me out.nother good Barry song is my first,my last,my everything.
Panty-dropping music for sure!
The Love King.
Barry White has such a deep, sensual voice.
Barry White on Valentines Day! EXCELLENT!
There is no comparison of the Barry's. They are each so wonderfully different. And from two totally different genres. We can LOVE THEM BOTH!
No competition or comparison.
preach! two talented musicians fr different time periods
He made BABY MAKING MUSIC 😏😘😉😉
Barry. What a voice, what a vibe. This man could have sung his shopping and errand list and it would have been great. RIP big man. "I have to buy...canned soup and tomatoes..."
Lewis....saw him 4 mo's. before hpe died... he couldn't sing well. I felt so bad.

Close the Door--Teddy Pendergrass!!!
And don't forget "Love X Love" by George Benson
Ooohhhhhh, Sam Cooke. Talk about another iconic and unparalleled voice! I hope you guys explore his body of work. Especially "A Change Is Gonna Come".
It's been a long time since I've heard Barry. Thank you

What is it about both deep baritones and smooth falsettos?! Chills and goosebumps. Probably why I love both Barry White and Barry Gibb 😱🔥❤️

Anything Barry White!
It blows my mind how much music this generation has to discover.
it blows your mind that people don't know music from 50 years ago?
This year the song is just 48 years old. close to 50 but no Cigar for you Wyatt

Guys I recommend “You’re My First, My Last, My Everything” by Barry White.
The gentle giant with immense talent. He's gone but left a treasure.
Amber is spot on! I will never understand how we went from music expressing respect and love for women to deeming us Bi*chs and H*s and WAP.
women changed, they lack standards too many of them
It's a sad commentary of today's music.
Trust it’s all by design to breakdown humanity.
He was around in the Disco Era, that's what I hear in his music. Everyone ran to the dance floor when he came on!
We've been socially engineered intentionally. There are forces that do not want us elevating and respecting one another. Look at the differences from the 1970's and now.
Baby making music! 🥰
Before their respective deaths Barry White and Luciano Pavarroti performed a duet of Barry's song "My first...My last..My everthing"
I had the pleasure of meeting him at a record store signing. I got there early and he was just getting setup (or his crew were setting up). He was standing off to the side and I introduced myself as a fan (I bought his latest release) and we chatted for a few. Such a generous and sweet man. Just the genuine thing.

The big boy had a way with the ladies ,for sure. Solid tune.
Love this song.
OMG!!! Barry White!!!!! So happy you've finally discovered him!!! He is so amazing. The original baby making music!!! Keep reacting to Barry.✌❤
Pure class……..
Oh! That Voice….. nobody beats Barry….. in romantic songs…..
Luther Vandross is up there too!
And as an added bonus his music also makes you want to get up and dance!
They don't make 🎵 or voices like this anymore. Barry is a romantic person. Classic lyrics. Lyrics are trashy now. You are right about the music now. No respect for women. Women nowadays have no respect for themselves.
BIG SMOOVE !!
The world needs some Barry Whites !
No one is writing or performing live songs anymore.
No no no, You’re my first my last my everything! Is definitely Barry Whites hit that will make goosebumps crawl up your arms and bring that perpetual smile across your face yes yes yes!!
Happy Valentine's to you both.

yes indeed. Their "Love's Theme" comes to mind
@@surlechapeau "Love's Theme" was a single when I was a kid, and I played the grooves off of it. Loved it then, love it now.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
ABC used it for their Opening Theme on golf tournaments
So many babies were made listening to Barry White, Al Green, and Marvin Gaye
Can't compare the two Barrys they are as different as chalk and cheese, they are both awesome!

Barry White is definitely the top Barry to me.
Great to see Youngster hear what real music was like back in the day. Great voices, great/clean meaning, and great dance sounds. !!
I think you two will really enjoy you're the first you're the last my everything by Barry White same type of funk upbeat tempo but somehow you put his voice on top of it and it makes everything sensual

Barry is a legend. You truly should dive more into his music. Picking up with something like "Your Sweetness, Is My Weakness". He had so many great tunes.
Barry White has a notoriously baby-making voice and way of singing.
Barry White was one of the most prolific artists of the mid 70's. My favourite Barry tune was his first top 10 on the Pop charts, " I'm Gonna Love You A Little More". With the his band the Love Unlimited Orchestra and his backing band Love Unlimited, with his then wife Glodean James, who was the lead singer of Love Unlimited (hits - Walking In the Rain and I Belong to You). Many of us will remember Never Gonna Give You Up, What am I Gonna Do With You, My First, My Last, My Everything, Standing In the Shadows of Love etc..
You really hit the nail on the head with your explanation of the difference between this old love song being sweet and respectful etc. And if it came on the radio in the family car, it wouldn’t be a problem if the kids happened to hear it.👍👍. I’m 69 and still enjoy his songs😍😍

Barry White - The Maestro, was my Dad's favorite singer. Barry is partly the reason why I have 3 beautiful little sisters, if you catch my drift! His voice and arrangements are pure magic! Casting another vote for Barry White featured in Quincy Jones' Secret Garden!
Barry white rip✌
Barry White is the consummate artiste, his own orchestra, of which he is a part, backs his songs - a genius!!
You guys are just so cute to watch and glad your generation appreciates this great music ! 👍👍
Deep husky voice soul music at it's best.
Barry White.
Rare.❤❤❤
Barry is great romantic dance music, "It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next To Me" and "Never, Never Gonna Give Ya Up" is pure groove with that voice.
"You're The First, The Last, My Everything" is my favorite
Barry made some great love songs, including one with his side project, Love Unlimited Orchestra, called "Love's Theme," which is a Funky instrumental, with orchestra, that was a huge hit and IS the theme of love. You will both love it. This amazing song soars but it also bops. It's like a Soul orchestra and very memorable. ❤🎶
I'm in in love with this girl on screen...she's beautiful, genuine, and moves to the music.
Barry White .. the smooth operator. Luv his songs. Agree with many here .. next check out "You're my first, my last, my everything". Happy Valentine's Day y'all. Peace Out ✌🏼💓
I still dance with my wife in the kitche 46 years on this was the music of our time
Perfect choice for Valentines Day❣️I remember dancing to that song in high school and listening to this album over and over again.... yes, I am that old 😉😘😘
Wow you dont look it I do ha ha you have great taste..
Immediately after I was born, my father introduced me to Barry's music, and I've been living with his music for 45 years now. There is nothing better❤❤❤

The Maestro of love..Barry White.
Absolutely thrilled you’ve finally reacted to Barry White, keep going there are so many more gems to listen too! ♥️ I was so incredibly lucky to have seen him in concert, still adore his music and the way it to connects to my childhood memories 🥰
Love Love love Barry White. I willing to go out on a limb here but I bet there were a whole lot more babies conceived to Barry White than Barry Gibb and I'm a big Bee Gees fan. His voice is so smooth. Romance lost a great when Barry White passed away. Barry was great romance singer.
Barry “baby-makin music” White!! His voice! His songs! The man isn’t fire, he’s the bomb that lights the fire!! So good! 🔥🤙
A big man and huge in soul. Barry had heaps of hits in the 70s.
