      That is amazing. And thank you so much. I have actually just done a lot of work in the members category right before this to make it better. We are beyond humbled. It means so much, so much. The singer for tool. His name is Maynard James Keenan and his mother called him Jimmy. and her name was Judith. So that's some irony. Thanks again.

    Ahh thanks for doing this my boys. A classic American soul song from the 1960’s by Sam Cooke. I agree with you OGL that Jimmy’s voice has settled into one of more control in his older years and he has tailored his newer material perfectly to sit with this change. It’s a more mature vocal that has risen from his newfound self awareness of his life pain and struggles.
    “The depth of one’s soul cannot be reached by those afraid to swim” (Cailin Heargraves).
    There’s absolutely no doubt that younger Jimmy had a wider range and more variation in tone. If you listen to Forever Now (recently remastered by yours truly) you’ll hear a tone from young Jimmy that has tinges of pop-reggae, no belting at all and no rasp/grit. It’s a perfect example of young Jimmy’s pure vocal tone. It’s not a live performance but with that one it’s better hearing the official anyway because you can focus on the vocal without distraction.
    Jimmy appeared on 60 minutes a couple of weeks ago, it’s on TH-cam, not sure if you saw it. ❤

      You're very welcome. As soon as I seen it, I told Greg I said, let's do it. I was supposed to pop the screen up there in the last few lady was read. your um. comment that you had pinned. but instead it looks like we're just looking at nothing for like 3 or 4 minutes. LOL. I did it. So get your, you know, channel logo and your commenting. But I put the link to your channel anyway in the description.

    Cold Chisel another Aussie treasure not accepted in the USA. I can’t understand it but what a voice sooo good thanks again guys.❤. This is a Sam Cook song about the oppression of black people in the US and the impact of the Jim Crow line so soulful

      Yeah. Well, we all hate LA too. There has been so many songs from American bands talking crap about L. A. And the music industry and. how they use everybody. So the music industry in America is pretty much L. A. & New York. That who gives the record label power and that's who deems what comes on the radio and what C D's are sold in stores. Everybody I've introduced to cold chisel. loves them. So it's the music industry that turned cold chisel down. Not Americans. They never had a choice. They never heard of cold chisel or heard them on the radio. I mean, we love in INXS. We love ACDC. Olivia Newton John is loved dearly here. but it's not like any of us knew that these people were from Australia No different than we know where any artist is from unless they tell us and we're big fans and we. respect the culture. because music is all around us and literally half of everybody in America are from other countries. So it's not that Americans are insular. They already know about most cultures because they live everywhere all around us. I can't tell you right now what bands are from America that come on the radio. I mean, I could tell you a few, but most of the time I have no idea where a band is from or where they were born. Not that we don't care. It's just that it's just not a thing here to figure. out where someone's from. I thought INXS. was a British band. I mean, if I would have had to guess. And I always felt Bon Scott was an American. So what I am saying is, the American people never had a say In what bands get turned down. It's no different than you in Australia. You don't know half of the bands that are American. because it doesn't come on your radio stations and it's not advertised there. This is the same thing. The difference is that the radio and. record label and music industry is in L. A. Which happens to be in America. And we all hate that place. In fact, the popular thing in America is to write a song about screw LA and screw the music industry. Hotel California is a great example. Just like the cast in Greece. Well, Olivia Newton John was in there, so it was John Travolta. I don't know right now where John Travolta is from. I have no idea. Like Grand funk Railroad. Now they are an American band because they made a song called that we're in American band. And that song was made because it's so confusing here for musicians, because of not knowing where any other musicians are from. So in America an American band don't get any credit for being an American band because. there are so many other bands everywhere in America. I'm not trying to, like, argue with you or anything. I guess I'm just trying to make you understand. that we have no idea who gets turned down or not. The band I love tool made a song that was totally about screw LA. Maynard's hero is Bon Scott. The singer for Tool actually his inspiration is an Australian. So there are 48 states full of people that don't have any record labels or industries in the states and have nothing to do with who is on the radio and who is on the shelves in the store. It's one of them deals where the evils of a very few affect the majority of the many. just like every state has different laws because of the few people on Capitol Hill that get to make the rules for everyone in every state. I've been a huge fan of Michael Hutchins when I was younger, but I had no idea where he was from. Good music is just good music, I guess here and as. far as knowing where that person was born or where they lived really has nothing to do with the music they make. I love Nightwish now and there all Norwegian. Music streaming has helped get music all round the world. for them to get recognition. That's why when music started streaming, all of a sudden there became like 100 different genres. And the reason I'm saying all this is because now I feel terrible like all of Australia thinks that all Americans don't like Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham. Both of them make great music, and we would love them no different than ACDC. I mean, I understand that this would be confusing if you lived outside of the U. S. and I would be upset too. That's like the country music industry wouldn't let any of their acts or singers. tour across seas. So it's so sad to me that the world doesn't know Hank Williams Junior and George Jones and Waylon Jennings. But it's because the music industry would not promote them to the world.

      And it's kind of the same with the Jim Crow. Everybody in Alabama hated Governor Wallace. Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote. a song. Sweet Hill, Alabama. This song points this out Says in Birmingham, they love their governor. Boo Boo Boo We all did what we could do. WaterGate doesn't bother me. Does your conscience bother you, tell the truth.
      This points out that when Americans came here and settled, they brought sleeves with them before there was a north and S. When people went south, they were actually rebelling against the government. Because there were just as many slaves in the N as the S because the. because there was no N and S. and Washington was in the north, and that's where we settled first. So they tried to blame everything in the South. for slavery. There was a little music studio in a little town in Alabama called Muscle Shoals. And this was right when Governor Wallace was making the speech. Segregation now segregation to Morrow and segregation forever. Just a few miles down the road, Percy sledge. after being in the cotton field, would go into this studio and a band called the Swampers for three. nerdy white guys. And they started this little studio. And that's when Percy sledge made when a man loves a woman. And this was in the heart of the civil rights. crisis in the segregation. See in the north they started building all these textile meals and they were profiting off of all of the cheap cotton. There were actually black slave owners in the north that did not happen in the South. and the free African Americans in the north would still work on the plantations, but they were free to go home. So they really had no relationship with the white people on. who owned the plantations? But in the South. as terribly slavery was. the slaves lived in the plantations and in the house, and they were basically the nannies of all of these kids and people that didn't even know what was going on. And they all loved each other very much. Those slaves that women were like mothers to most of these people who grew up to make this music in the South. So they were actually way more in touch with the culture of the African American than people were in the north. But on the news, all you're saying was that the South or the bad guys and that's where all the racism is. But I mean, people couldn't just leave and move away This was back before even cars. and the whole civil war that happened very slow with a lot of events that took place leading up to it. Southern Rock and roll and the Blues was born in the South. Baby King. Elvis Presley. Percy sledge. Aretha Franklin. Ray Charles. they all cut their teeth and made all their great albums in the South. and the slaves would sing songs while picking cotton, and the kids would sing with them. Those kids grew up to be the musicians who got labeled as racist southern rock music. And still to this day, here in the South, you see way less racism than you do up north. Robert Johnson at the crossroads that happened in Alabama. Hank Williams senior was taught how to play music by a man named Tee Tot. Who is a black man who sang the blues? And that's where Hank Williams got his bluesy sound from. And that's where Elvis, who was born in Tupelo, MS. got all of his soul from. And again, the record labels is who would promote the music. But they wouldn't tell you that all that great music by the African Americans was made in the South. So nobody knew. the song RESPECT. It was written in muscle shoals. because Aretha Franklin's husband came down there and seen her cutting records with white people. And he got mad and they got into a fight. And she ended up leaving him and staying there. That's why it says RESPEC. T. find out what that means to me. Sock it to me. Sock it to me. Sock it to me. LOL that song is about the goofy white boy drummer who punched her husband for treating her like a dog and telling her to come home or else. And he assaulted her. But yes, America has a lot of blood on its hands. We killed all the natives. We brought slaves here. And we literally went to war with our own people. Which none of us are very proud of? And a lot of the plantation owners were sickening. But all the children and the sisters and brothers and everyone that lived in the household with the slaves, they all loved each other like family. Charles was a big part of getting the. African-american crowd to get into the Blues and into what became Southern Rock and roll. Sorry to write so much. I have made a couple different documentaries about this on the channel. So it's something I'm very passionate about. So now I really love this song even much more knowing what. knowing what it's about. That makes it so special. Thank you for educating me.

      By the way, I would thought I'd let you know that your comments are always awesome and this had nothing to do with you personally. I was not upset. I was just trying to give you context. So what I didn't say while ago was, thank you for your time. Thank you for your comments. Thank you for letting me know what this song is about.

      Thank you both, a young Jimmy full of soul, he is one of a kind we are just so grateful that he’s survived the life threatening infection and is well on the road to a full recovery.

    • @DannyLeeOGT
      @DannyLeeOGT  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Gymnastics-tq2zl I am so happy as well. I almost want to erase all those comments, but it's all true. But you don't know what you don't know and I for one, enjoy learning things about. things that I put one thing about, which happen to turn out to be different. Well, like Elvis for example.
      And I just. I just don't want people thinking that we didn't want Jimmy. I can't speak for everybody, but that that the public has anything to do with with Hollywood and L. A. I do know almost every American is disgusted with that entire scene And boy do I wish I had heard about Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham earlier in life. And I think I remember where Jimmy was gonna sing for ACDC and they turned him down after Bon Scott died.
      And I'm so glad he's gonna be able to come back and sing. I want John to as much as anybody else, but I also know what it's like to have damaged vocal cords and I just don't want John to hurt himself anymore. I know he'll get over excited like he did on the cold chisel concert and things could be a lot worse. or turn out worse than they did that day. I'm gonna react to some more older John because other than that, I don't think we really have.

    This was not long after the December 1983 Last Stand concerts when Cold Chisel broke up. in recent weeks he has been doing some practice on his property south of Sydney after heart surgery looking good just had his 68th birthday ready to make a comeback.

    Thanks guys for another great reaction to one of Oz's favourite sons. I just wanted to give you a Cold Chisel suggestion for a song which very rarely gets reacted to, but which is my personal favourite and one which is my phone ring tone for my lovely wife. The song is "All for You" and it was written by the band's keyboard player Don Walker and released in 2011 for their greatest hits album "The Best of Cold Chisel". I guess I like it because it is an older Jimmy vocal effort without too much vocal belt and more emotion associated with an older man. You can check out the official lyric studio version first here : th-cam.com/video/kYl49c3NpnE/w-d-xo.html and then there is an official live version from 2015 here as well : th-cam.com/video/IEf_ddIab1E/w-d-xo.html. I'm sure you will enjoy the experience 👍.
    By the way, another great Australian female singer which I don't think anyone has mentioned yet, is Chrissy Amphlett from the band Divinyls. Sadly she passed away in 2013 from cancer and complications from MS. The band is probably most famously known in the US by the song "I Touch Myself", but I would highly recommend you watch their song video "Boys in Town" th-cam.com/video/WnOXYcO4zjg/w-d-xo.html. Cheers guys.

      Yeah, that part was me being uneducated on our new system and app or. program. I didn't add the screen to. the main screen. So. you guys can't hear it, but it was playing and me and Greg both thought it was there. when we premiered it, I told everybody and premier. and that's the first time I realized they had happened when I premiered it and I've been gone all day since then. So I'll put a comment and pin it under here explaining that. I'm sorry.
