It's funny you say how you're beginning to notice music everywhere. I honestly, in my heart believe that music can unite people. We can all find common ground and a shared history.
This song was 💯 in a Chevrolet commercial! It's all I can picture when I hear this song! Kinda like The Allman Brothers song Midnight Rider in the Geico commercial! 😆 U should definitely check out more Bob! Old Time Rock and Roll is a whole different vibe than what u have heard so far!
Wait till you’re 76. You reflect on even people not things. Music pulls me back to the era it was made. The fifties and early 60s family, Vietnam my Marine buddies, 70s the start of my marriage, 80/90s my kids music, and now after 50 years of marriage I can relive the people I love in each time period. Thank you for taking me back with your reflections.
A few of my favoirte Bob Seger songs: Against the Wind Her Sturt Old Time Rocking Roll If you get a chance check out the The Allman Brothers Band - Soulshine - sure it will make your playlist
Seger was equally perfect in concert--sounded every bit as great as his recordings, all without autotune and no lip synching. At 61 he was still running up and down the stage during his performances....absolutely two of the best concerts I ever got to see.
I was able to see 5 concerts. My Sister and Father saw 6 concerts. All over a 30 year span. Bob Seger is part of my life. Always has been and always will be. It is a family affair with me. I am blessed.
100, Having an eidetic memory; I hate covers and live performances because it doesn't match the time signature, Bob Seager almost never had that problem, very few artists can keep Rythm with No metronome. lol
I was fortunate enough to have seen him live twice, the first time was front row tickets I won on a radio contest. It was amazing! I was so close I could see the red Levi’s tag on his jeans! 😂
I only heard both of those about a million times 'cause in the mid '80s they were played over and over every night in every topless bar from coast to coast!💯🤣❤️✌️
Not Bob Seger, but I gotta add one more song to the nostalgia list. Don Henley - The Boys of Summer. As a kid, it wasn't bad. As an adult, it grabs me, every time.
Im 56. I grew up in MI. I still have a cabin in Northern MI. When Uncle Bob comes on, you turn it up, and recall. Go to the woods, the lake, the river, the fishin hole, the cornfield, the bondfire, and chill with Bob.
My favorite Bob Seger song is Against the Wind. Beautiful song with the best line ever "wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then." How true in life. 😢
Bob's voice and lyrics can paint a picture in your mind like no other. Put all of his songs on little pieces of paper, put them in a hat, pull one out, it's a hit. "Where did the time go?" Brother, with your b-day coming up, you are a week younger than my youngest. I can't tell you where the time went.
Bob Seger. My all time favorite performer. Times of reflection, times of romance, times of road trips... all accompanied by Bob Seger and his Silver Bullet Band.
I've seen him many times through the years, and never even a bad piece of a show, just pure excellence. I've seen him from the front row, I've seen him from the cheap seats up next to the ceiling, and never anything less than pure excellence. Thank you for the reaction!
You are correct Chevy trucks used the Like a Rock in their commericals for many years. When Chevy first approached Bob about using his song in their ads he said no. However After speaking to a plant worker for GM, Seger had a change of heart as he was reminded of his own time working for the car company. He relented and "Like a Rock" became the official anthem of Chevy trucks from 1991 to 2014. Bob was from the Detroit area, and always wanted to do what he could to suport the local workers. Bob has a very deep and full catalouge of songs to explore. One of the best singer songwriters of his or any other generation. THe best thing you can say about any singer/songwriter. There is not such thing as a bad Bob Seger Song. Hollywood Nights, Her Strut, The Famous Final Scene, Feel like a Number, and Beautiful Loser are some that I think you might connect with.
I'm 66 and you are playing the music I surrounded myself with when I was in my 20s. We boomers had the best of rock in the 60s and 70s. They were golden years for rock.
About that car commercial (truck commercial), Bob gave all the profits from Like a Rock to the auto workers in Detroit. Every penny, for all time. Detroit loves Bob Seger.
I just turned 75 a couple of days ago. I, a US Army Paratrooper and wore the coveted Green Beret. Now, I have problems getting into my truck... where has time gone? That is why this song is so loved by me and I play it a lot... to remember...
Bob Seger transcends age groups. Something in all of his songs hits home. But this one....wow. There was a time I was like a rock. We can all remember those days. I took my inlaws to a concert of his a few years ago. Watching them sing and dance along was amazing.
Seger didn't get paid much for the commercial. He did it because he was from Detroit and the American car industry, mostly from Motor City, was hurting. His backup band is called the Silver Bullet Band, and he turned down a lotmore money from Coor's Light (the "Silver Bullet") because he didn't want to "sell out..."
In the 70's,when I was standing in line in Hollywood,at Two Guys From Itally for a Pizza,I turned around and the guy behind me smilled at me. It was Bob Seger. Suddenly he took off his baseball cap that said "Peppermint Patty" and put it on my head. Saying" This fit's you better than it does me". I still have that cap. It is dark blue with the saying on it.
When I heard the truck commercial I thought "Oh my God! No No! Do not cheapen and abuse this amazing song!!!" as I get older I change the words " 20 years,where;d they go? " to 30 years now 40 years
He actually worked in a GM plant before he, "made it". Certainly one of my all time favorite songs. The older you get the more it means to you. I'm a 75yo container with a 39yo inside. Well... occasionally a 12yo is inside it. As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
Bob Seger was the Simone Biles of the music scene in his day. His support of the Michigan auto industry (he was born in Detroit) was how Chevrolet was able to use this song in their ads. He also gave a large chunk of the money he was paid to the auto workers fund. Solid Michigan guy who never forgot his roots. Solid man, solid music, period.
Bob Seger :Feel like A Number". That's how I felt when I first went over seas after joining the Marine Corps. Played it over and over on the juke box.....
I would love to hear your reaction and interpretation of Bob Seger’s “Ship of Fools”(1976). It’s a haunting song for me at least. Also Hank Williams Jr. “Man of Steel” 😊 Love your reactions and insights! Keep them coming! 👍👍👍👍👍
Quite possibly the greatest storyteller in rock history. If you want to react to more of Bob (and I know you do), write his extensive catalog of hits on a board, close your eyes & throw a dart--you can't go wrong with any of 'em!
Bob Seger is absolute gold. He's the real deal and I'm so pleased, really, so please you're making this discovery . i wish i could live over the times he was brand new on the radio
Time moves on. Its one of the few things we cant control or manipulate. Memories come back as we grow and we see where we were or how we have changed. This song is really deep and Bob tells this story so well. I am 58 and I remember those days as a 18 yo .I still stand for my beliefs, i just stand slower and take pain meds to do it lol. Bob Seger makes you think and i love his music. Great reaction, keep em coming and happy Birthday :)
I grew up in Detroit and as a high schooler danced to Bob Seger's band at Notre Dame dances. I've been a fan since then and his songs will get me on a dance floor the minute I hear the opening chords. At that point, my response is Pavlovian - I can't sit still , I have to dance. It's the sound of Detroit as much s Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, and the Supremes. He is legendary.
I listened to Seger all through high school and have never stopped. Sometimes, nothing moves me like some of his songs. Against The Wind is one of greatest!
Bob Seger represents the heart and soul of Detroit, that's why this song was chosen for a Chevy truck commercial. Just like Chrysler used Eminem's Lose Yourself. Turn The Page, Shakedown, Come To Poppa, Her Strut, Old Time Rock And Roll, Ramblin' Gamblin' Man, the list of Seger classics goes on...
If you want to think about the people and places that formed you, grab some beers, sit back on the porch, and put on Bob Seger. All the people and all the places will come back. Raise a toast to their memory and be thankful they were there for you.
This song is one of my favorite songs ever, and it has been since I was a preteen. Having more comprehension of the lyrics as a middle-aged person now, I just love it more. This song reminds me so much of my late husband, who passed away at just 45 yrs old.
Love your relating to this song. Listen to it when you're 54. You'll get goosebumps and recharged like a bolt of lightning. Foutian of youth for the mind, body & soul.
Mr. Seger describes a young person stepping into adulthood. All the hopes and none of the fears. All the strengths without the weakness and pain that comes with age. *That's* why people try to teach their children well. That's why communities invest in education, and vocational training. :D No one lives forever. Twenty years after your high school graduation, thirty, forty....fifty or more, as we gaze at the moon up in the sky the only things we will have left to cherish is the memories of what we've managed to accomplish together *and* on our own in the world during our personal journey through time. Time doesn't go *anywhere* but we cannot linger. Live so that somebody misses *you* when you're gone. That's a tribute in itself, don't you think?
Seger is one of what some critics call the "Heartland Rockers," guys with a working class attitude, sometimes but not always from the Midwest. Seger and Springsteen are perfect examples, along with John Mellencamp and Michael Stanley.
Seger is my dad's favourite artist. I didn't really get it when I was young, but the older I get, the more it becomes clear. His lyrics are timeless. His voice is passionate. And he's clearly a Goat that's underappreciated.
Bob Seger and Johnny Cash are the two storytellers of music if you ask me. I can name four or five other absolutely amazing ones right now but something about Bob Seger and Johnny Cash can paint a picture better than anybody. There are plenty of good other storytellers but some of them just rise to the top.
Bob's music has universal appeal as his lyrics and music capture what everyone feels but can't easily express so poetically and metaphorically. A time when we were young, strong and seemly invincible.
It’s amazing how these icons like Bob Seger, Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, Billy Joel, Jon BonJovi, and others I’m not immediately recalling, all have vast musical catalogues from hit songs they wrote from their own imagination or their own experience. True artists and poets.
It's funny you say how you're beginning to notice music everywhere. I honestly, in my heart believe that music can unite people. We can all find common ground and a shared history.
Absolutely it’s the universal language. Every human no matter race country whatever can enjoy. It’s definitely a way of communication and love.
That's what MJ said and believed. And we had the music to unite around.
Yeah, wishing. ALOT of young people are too dumb and don't have the drive or only choice to actually have to live
Amen
Absolutely 💯
Bob Seger is one of my favorite artist. He’s a legend.
Almost 59million views..WORD UP
BOB is so great. Aldean night train,tge truth, a segar lover

Wait till you’re 76. You reflect on even people not things. Music pulls me back to the era it was made.

Love Seger, so many bangers!
My favorite! Love him
A few of my favoirte Bob Seger songs:
Against the Wind
Her Sturt
Old Time Rocking Roll
If you get a chance check out the The Allman Brothers Band - Soulshine - sure it will make your playlist

Yes sir, and as you probably know, many of those live performances ended up on the albums.
I was able to see 5 concerts. My Sister and Father saw 6 concerts. All over a 30 year span. Bob Seger is part of my life. Always has been and always will be. It is a family affair with me. I am blessed.

Saw him in 1975 Live at Hulman Center in 1975 and have been mesmerized by his music since!
All you need is LIVE BULLET ALBUM Bob Seger must be enjoyed live
Nine tonight is the best live album I have ever heard. I hope you have heard it.
Live Bullet and Nine Tonight are the 2 best albums ever recorded, IMO.
"shit, i've known that for ten years!"
@@zzz7zzz9 shit I've known that for 10 years!!! 😂 the most classic line EVER 😂
@@zzz7zzz9 I saw what you did there
No doubt. Still resonates
Bob Seger is the G.O.A.T. of nostalgia songs that make you think of your past. Just for fun try Come To Papa or Her Strut.
I only heard both of those about a million times 'cause in the mid '80s they were played over and over every night in every topless bar from coast to coast!💯🤣❤️✌️
Not Bob Seger, but I gotta add one more song to the nostalgia list. Don Henley - The Boys of Summer. As a kid, it wasn't bad. As an adult, it grabs me, every time.
Main Street is another great song by Bob Seger.....the guitar riffs are amazing!
I'm 87 and bob seger still has the best music.
I'm 65 and still remember telling my brother when we were in our 20's that Bob Seger was the best story teller ever. I still feel that way.
Bob is a great storyteller,but don't forget to include Billy Joel in that list!🎹🎙🎶
Great American singer songwriter.
Bob Seger never disappoints. One of the best, most consistent singer/songwriters ever.
I haven’t watched yet, but I’ll bet this goes on your playlist
My favorite by Bob Seger is Night moves, it's a must hear❤❤
Absolutely!! 🔥
Turn the Page is up there too.
Bob Seger is 79 years old today. Happy Birthday Bob
Bob Seger is the KING of reminiscing songs, always makes you think back to your youth....
He just rocks.
The older you gets, the harder this hits. Keep cruisin', Brother.
Im 56. I grew up in MI. I still have a cabin in Northern MI. When Uncle Bob comes on, you turn it up, and recall. Go to the woods, the lake, the river, the fishin hole, the cornfield, the bondfire, and chill with Bob.
64 here and calling him Uncle Bob means something to us!
Grew up in northern MI and Bob Seger always reminds me of home.
Nice!!!!!
54 Michigan 🎶🤍
Hello fellow MI friends !
My favorite Bob Seger song is Against the Wind. Beautiful song with the best line ever "wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then." How true in life. 😢
My favorite line as well,
Yeah, that one is incredible
Always makes me cry!❤
Bob's voice and lyrics can paint a picture in your mind like no other. Put all of his songs on little pieces of paper, put them in a hat, pull one out, it's a hit.

Definitely.
This song reminds me of my dad. Gone from here but never forgotten. Love dad.
Can't go wrong with Bob! Every song is 🔥!!!
About that car commercial (truck commercial), Bob gave all the profits from Like a Rock to the auto workers in Detroit. Every penny, for all time. Detroit loves Bob Seger.
Turn the Page is another good one of his. In my opinion. But he's got quite a few that I love.
I definitely agree with you.
Jodie Girl, Travelin' Man and Beautiful Loser...
One of his best songs is "Shame on The Moon"
Beautiful song with real thoughts
I have always been a Bob Seger fan. This is one of many fantastic songs by him.
I just turned 75 a couple of days ago. I, a US Army Paratrooper and wore the coveted Green Beret. Now, I have problems getting into my truck... where has time gone? That is why this song is so loved by me and I play it a lot... to remember...
Bob is the Best!! He's from Michigan and we love him still!!
Bob Seger is one of the legends! Happy almost birthday.✌️
Bob Seger transcends age groups. Something in all of his songs hits home. But this one....wow. There was a time I was like a rock. We can all remember those days. I took my inlaws to a concert of his a few years ago. Watching them sing and dance along was amazing.
Great song, anthem of old guys everywhere. 40 years where they go....

His backup band is called the Silver Bullet Band, and he turned down a lotmore money from Coor's Light (the "Silver Bullet") because he didn't want to "sell out..."
Granddaddy of rock! Unmistakable! ♥️
Love Bob Seger, Old Time Rock and Roll is another great song to check out
If I could only listen to one artist's music for all my remaining years, it would definitely be Bob Seger.
I would too! ❤
And the eagles for group!
Had the pleasure of seeing Bob Seger in concert it was unbelievable! He is the best story in his music.
In the 70's,when I was standing in line in Hollywood,at Two Guys From Itally for a Pizza,I turned around and the guy behind me smilled at me. It was Bob Seger. Suddenly he took off his baseball cap that said "Peppermint Patty" and put it on my head. Saying" This fit's you better than it does me". I still have that cap. It is dark blue with the saying on it.

Roll Me Away needs to be your next Bob Seger reaction.
Yes! My favorite ❤
He actually worked in a GM plant before he, "made it".
Certainly one of my all time favorite songs. The older you get the more it means to you.
I'm a 75yo container with a 39yo inside. Well... occasionally a 12yo is inside it.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
The best voice, storyteller, and songwriter of All Time!!! Not one of his songs will ever disappoint!!!!!!
Bob Seger was the Simone Biles of the music scene in his day. His support of the Michigan auto industry (he was born in Detroit) was how Chevrolet was able to use this song in their ads. He also gave a large chunk of the money he was paid to the auto workers fund. Solid Michigan guy who never forgot his roots. Solid man, solid music, period.
come to poppa. feel like a number. two of my faves.
Bob Seger :Feel like A Number". That's how I felt when I first went over seas after joining the Marine Corps. Played it over and over on the juke box.....
He is going to make you cry. You should listen to Her Strut. Yes, every Bob Seger song is emotional perfection.
Music is everywhere. Thank god. Music makes this world better.
Yes Sir, you are correct. Bob Seger is THE GOAT!
Forever Playlist! Uncle Bob snagged another one.
Bonus points if you caught his album titles in the lyrics!
Bob turned 79 in May. He is still like a rock.
One of the best lyricists and storytellers ever!
I would love to hear your reaction and interpretation of Bob Seger’s “Ship of Fools”(1976). It’s a haunting song for me at least.
Also Hank Williams Jr. “Man of Steel” 😊
Love your reactions and insights! Keep them coming! 👍👍👍👍👍
Quite possibly the greatest storyteller in rock history. If you want to react to more of Bob (and I know you do), write his extensive catalog of hits on a board, close your eyes & throw a dart--you can't go wrong with any of 'em!
Bob Seger is absolute gold. He's the real deal and I'm so pleased, really, so please you're making this discovery . i wish i could live over the times he was brand new on the radio

He had many excellent songs. My favourite is still Against The Wind
This song hits hard when your best years feel 20+ years behind you.
I grew up in Detroit and as a high schooler danced to Bob Seger's band at Notre Dame dances. I've been a fan since then and his songs will get me on a dance floor the minute I hear the opening chords. At that point, my response is Pavlovian - I can't sit still , I have to dance. It's the sound of Detroit as much s Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, and the Supremes. He is legendary.
Old time rock ‘n’ roll
I listened to Seger all through high school and have never stopped. Sometimes, nothing moves me like some of his songs. Against The Wind is one of greatest!
Bob stated he made a mint from the Chevrolet commercial. Way more than the airplay and publishing it rights.
I think it was used in a commercial for a "Silverado" a Chevrolet pick-up truck. Bob Seger's Live music is the best.
Bob Seger represents the heart and soul of Detroit, that's why this song was chosen for a Chevy truck commercial. Just like Chrysler used Eminem's Lose Yourself. Turn The Page, Shakedown, Come To Poppa, Her Strut, Old Time Rock And Roll, Ramblin' Gamblin' Man, the list of Seger classics goes on...
Bob is the man. He never disapoints. Kudos also to Rick Vito for those two brilliant gitar solos.
It's amazing how lyrics to these songs hit different from when you are a teenager singing to them.
I'm loving your love for Bob Seger. He's one of my all time favourites
If you want to think about the people and places that formed you, grab some beers, sit back on the porch, and put on Bob Seger.
All the people and all the places will come back. Raise a toast to their memory and be thankful they were there for you.
If you ever get the opportunity to see him live. GO!!!!! I've been to quite a numbers of concerts in my day, his show ranks in my top 5.
❤At 78 this year will be hi last tour 2024.
He deserves to retire.
Chevy's "Like a Rock" was the best ad campaign ever.
Bob Seger is a A Rock Legend!!!
Love his music this generation's music is The Greatest !
I think this was used in a Chevy Truck Commercial. Love all his songs!
Was lucky enough to see him in concert. One the best live bands
Roll Me Away please asap.....
Roll me away. good story.
Every time I hear that song, I want to hop on the bike and just pick a direction.
Incredible song. Seger was one of the greatest songwriters of our generation. Once you crack 40, you'll appreciate it this song.
This song is one of my favorite songs ever, and it has been since I was a preteen. Having more comprehension of the lyrics as a middle-aged person now, I just love it more. This song reminds me so much of my late husband, who passed away at just 45 yrs old.
He’s easily the goat. Tons of great songs.
I'm loving you hitting all these songs from way back. You wonder where 20 went, I'm looking for 40+.
Love your relating to this song.
Listen to it when you're 54.
You'll get goosebumps and recharged like a bolt of lightning.
Foutian of youth for the mind, body & soul.
I'm in tears, remembering the 70's with every summer with friends and a Bob Seger conterts
😢 I feel you
Mr. Seger describes a young person stepping into adulthood. All the hopes and none of the fears. All the strengths without the weakness and pain that comes with age. *That's* why people try to teach their children well.

Seger is one of what some critics call the "Heartland Rockers," guys with a working class attitude, sometimes but not always from the Midwest. Seger and Springsteen are perfect examples, along with John Mellencamp and Michael Stanley.
loved Bob Segar, and the Silver Bullet band, Tom Petty and the Heart breakers. so many good bands back then.
No one better than Bob Seger. I actually have 2 of his songs picked out to be played at my funeral. None of his songs are bad.
Yep ! LIVE BULLET and an open bar at mine.
Seger is my dad's favourite artist. I didn't really get it when I was young, but the older I get, the more it becomes clear.
His lyrics are timeless. His voice is passionate. And he's clearly a Goat that's underappreciated.
Another GREAT AMERICAN song writer…as a 64 year old man this song resonates really strong
Bob Seger and Johnny Cash are the two storytellers of music if you ask me. I can name four or five other absolutely amazing ones right now but something about Bob Seger and Johnny Cash can paint a picture better than anybody. There are plenty of good other storytellers but some of them just rise to the top.
Everything an American rock artist should be, he is all of it!
Bob's music has universal appeal as his lyrics and music capture what everyone feels but can't easily express so poetically and metaphorically. A time when we were young, strong and seemly invincible.
It’s amazing how these icons like Bob Seger, Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, Billy Joel, Jon BonJovi, and others I’m not immediately recalling, all have vast musical catalogues from hit songs they wrote from their own imagination or their own experience. True artists and poets.
It pleases me so much to hear how much you love him. Ive loved him since I was a kid, but not many other kids in my school did. ❤
