Your so right by saying the 60's and 70's was the best time for music. Being a teenager at this time was just wonderful. Oh, how I miss those days. I thank all the reactors who are keeping this music alive . Peace!
there’s only one grainy black and white recording of him singing it during the recording that I know of, yeah. Just cling to the studio cut and enjoy lol
I grew up in the sixties and seventies and in my opinion; between 1964 and 1979, some of the greatest songs you could ever react to were made during this golden age of music!
This performance could be all the band ever did and they would go down in history. Its like zeppelin at knebsworth or msg, metallica in moscow, ac dc donnigton or hendrix at monterrey pop. Its a once in a lifetime experience and nothing can compare.
Well back in those days the point was prove yourself as a musician. Because there were crazy talent everywhere... all countries were doing amazing music. Black Americans, Brits, but Los Jaivas and so many geniuses. ❤
Deep Purple , Led Zeppelin , Black Sabbath , England musically gifted. Saw Deep purple live in 2005 , amazing . One of the greatest band of all time, The masters of Hard rock and Heavy metal . The list of their greatest songs is endless , Perfect Strangers , Knocking on your back door, Highway star , Smoke on the water , Black night , Sometimes I feel like screaming , Anthem , Love conquers All , Woman from Tokyo , Strange kind of woman , When a blind man cries, etc.

i'm gonna be honest here .....for us who grew up in the 70s ....when the 80s rolled around ...we sometimes looked back at this stuff as being old school ...and the production old fashioned ....however , you see it now as classic and refreshingly honest !!! - its great stuff.....NEVER follow fashion....thats the lesson i learnt
It was a time of a true double edged sword - the artists really expanded the creative boundary in really all music genres but also the labels really pushed them hard to publish, tour, publish.
lol bands was trippin on best drugs women and alchocol,they cared not! it was true time to live and die w/o being too anxios about this llil thing called life@@Dibbdroid
@@DibbdroidA lot of dodgy managers, yes, but the labels pushed the musicians to death..... while making millions of $ along with the managers and paying the bands almost nothing.
@@Rassskle the labels don't book four American tours in a year, plus Europe and the UK on top: the managers do. Labels wanted 1 album a year and the managers could have negotiated for time off.

This has always been considered an anti-Vietnam War song. Ian Gillan, the singer, wrote the lyrics. Their "In Rock" album was the second album I bought as a teenager. I saw them live three times in 1971, 72 and 73. They were fantastic live. (I still have all my extensive collection of vinyl from the 60s and 70s.)
It's mostly Americans who think it must be about America's War Against Vietnam because everything has to be about them. But Gillan has said repeatedly it was about the Cold War. He said, for example, that “I started singing and the words came easily because we were all aware of the nuclear threat which hovered over us at this time which was probably when the ‘cold war’ was at its hottest ... So, we created this song using the Cold War as the theme.” Being British it's not surprising that they (and me) were far more concerned with any Soviet/ Warsaw Pact threat of invasion/nuclear war than the rogue, terrorist USA killing hundreds of thousands in a country half a world away that was never any threat to the them (or any other country) as they were fighting for their independence from France (and eventually US imperialism).
@@psbarrow Well said by an imperialist Brit, but a big fake. Who got involved in the Iraq war; I thought at the time that the UK would become the 51st state, moving away from the reluctance of other European countries. And even before that, with the Fakland War, Britain had rediscovered its old imperialist streak. Wars are mostly diversionary maneuvers by old machos to distract from national problems and to unite their country through nationalism. As the saying goes, everyone should take a good look at their own nose and reconsider their own behavior✌
The U.K. was obsessed with music particularly rock in the 60’s/70’s/80’s, it was much bigger than any other cultural thing (football for example). Now the U.K. is totally football obsessed, and music is an after-thought. Our footballs team will never be as good at competing on the international stage as our music once was though
The fact of the matter is that in the later 60s and early 70s, the performers WERE IN CHARGE. The executives didn't know what the audience wanted, they signed everybody, and see which ones sold tickets and records.
Hi guys again, have a listen to Deep Purples "Perfect Stangers" film clip its around the ninetys I think you will love it, real Deep Purple sound. All the best guys Peter
You guys can bet these five monsters already knew exatelly how great they were, at the time... Deep Purple was fundamental influence over hundred of musicians and the music...
This song has a special place in my heart and especially this performance. I don't know how many times I've seen this video and just had goosebumps again. It reminds me of the time when I got to know this music. Bands like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, The doors etc. It was the early 90's and man we had a good time. Good friends, experience good music together, drink and smoke a little and were happy and carefree and became one in this music.
tutte le volte che sento questo pezzo, e ormai lo ascolto da 54 anni, continuo ad avere brivii lungo la schiena. I Deep purple sono per me il più grande gruppo hard rock di sempre.
Couldn't wait for you to get to this. Many of the songs in those days had something tangible about them, something you could almost touch and feel, they were created by true musicians who sometimes seemed to be more like magicians. One of the best reactions to this masterpiece I've seen. Thank you
Its true what you say , Deep Purple were formed in 1969 same time as Led Zepplin they were all true musicians not fake like today enjoy watching your take on different music and yes its true the best music and Bands were back then i wouldnt cross the road to watch any bands today
Great song! This is one of the few hard rock groups I enjoyed in the 60's-70's. Some of my favorites are their covers of Joe South's "Hush" & Neil Diamond's "Kentucky Woman", "Lazy", "Fireball", "Speed King", "Highway Star", "My Woman From Tokyo", "Space Truckin'" etc.

My favorite Deep Purple song... your reactions are priceless!!! I've watched so many Child in Time reactions but you guys are my favorite!!! I never get sick listening to this song!!! Speaking of "smoke..." their song "Smoke on the Water" is probably their most famous song (but most people will say it's overly played) Keep 'em coming!!! ❤
Like so many of my generation, I took for granted just how good the music was back then. Looking back, I treasure those memories of seeing so many great bands in concert. Rush, Outlaws, Bob Segar, Molly Hatchet, Pink Floyd and Tom Petty were some of the best to see live.
I was really fortunate to see this same lineup live. I love music but I agree, music was much different then compared to now. There are talented people but this was a special time. Wonderful reaction guys!❤
Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple were known as the Unholy Trinity, the actual founders of Hard Rock. And like Dire Straits Deep Purple consisted of top class musicians. And that makes for greatness. I basically grew up in the 60s, was in my teens in the 70s and I cannot tell you how lucky I feel to still be able to see performances like this one nowadays and have that connection to, as Dominica said, "back in the day". Elisabeth Zharov (The Charismatic voice) in her reaction compared the uuhs and aaahs of Ian Gillan with various expressions of pain in relation to the war (the song was a Vietnam protest, the "blind man shooting at the world" being the two superpowers going at it and leaving havoc in their wake) which I thought was brilliantly deduced. In a way I think the best music has already been composed, written, and sung. Sorry, most of what we hear today is just a watered down version of what was pure back then.
It’s not about America's War Against Vietnam, but the Cold War, as Gillan has repeatedly said.

Great rock band with some of the best musicians ever. The vocalist Ian Gillan one of the best front men ever. He sang the role of Jesus Christ on the original soundtrack of Jesus Christ Superstar, a rock opera from 1970. Unbelievable talent.
Thanks for this great reaction. This is , for me, the greatest songs ever maked....it was back then in 1970 and it still are. Amazing song and an amazing band.
An amazing band the first album I bought was deep purple machine head 5 minutes later I bought pink Floyd dark side of the moon and I’ve loved this era ever since I grew much older but my music still sounds of my youth ❤️
There are bands out there that can convey that sort of feeling like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, and Black Sabbath could 50 years ago. They are far and in between. But they do exist. The amount of talent in the UK in the 60's and 70's was astounding and will never be matched again. Child In Time is an all time classic. Wise choice. Great reaction.
OH, MY - the passion in this song is AMAZING!!! His mournful vocals are just so MOVING and ENCOMPASSING!!! So hard to find words....just SO impactful!! And, still true, today, when speaking of war. The musicianship in this one is TOP-LEVEL and the vocals, as ALWAYS, with Ian Gillan, are STUNNING...and, in this case: heart-wrenching!!! I'm so glad all this music was available to me, as I grew up: a time when musicians could SO APTLY convey their thoughts and stances to the masses, whom many agreed with. Not the case, with a few exceptions, these days. LOVE YOUR REACTIONS! HUGS....from an old lady!! ❤❤❤❤❤
It was Great Growing up in the 1960's and seventies in the UK Led Zep, Black Sabbath, Deep purple, Pink Floyd, Dire straits, Yes, etc . I was lucky enough to see most live, but the best concert by far was Pink Floyds pulse at earls court standing under the mirror ball.
You are absolutely right! Music and the arts in general were so so much better than today. Even though we have super advanced technology, which continues to grow, we are currently in the new Dark Ages.
OH YES, THEY KNEW HOW GOOD THEY WERE. Gillan (vocals) and Blackmore (guitar) were among the cockiest of them all. They were #1 at that time (albumwise), Blackmore called one of the greatest and most influential guitarists of all time, Gillan was the first Jesus Christ Superstar. This song is a protestsong against Vietnam-War.
London WAS the place to be in the 60s and 70s. After that is was steadily downhill to where we are now. The musicians were so mature then and just incredibly talented and inventive. Those of us who experienced it were truly blessed as it will never come again.
I Love Nightwish, Epica, Black Sabbath and other Metal Songs but THIS is/was ALWAYS my Number 1 HIT All-times. Since i heard it in 1972, i wast lost for this song. [never heard a better].
I love your guys reactions, and I've been a Deep Purple fan since I was a kid. You guys are right: Child in Time is just an overwhelming masterpiece by five unbelievable musicians each playing amazingly but somehow coming together.
Thx for the reaction!! Written during the VietNam War. And you've not been hit Oh, by flying lead You'd better close your eyes Oh Bow your head Wait for the ricochet
Your so right by saying the 60's and 70's was the best time for music. Being a teenager at this time was just wonderful. Oh, how I miss those days. I thank all the reactors who are keeping this music alive . Peace!
Best version of this song ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gillan's voice is like another virtuoso instrument.
The lead singer Ian Gillan was also on the original stage version cd of Jesus Christ Superstar as Jesus
Ian Gillan was never on the stage version..only on the the original 1970 concept album..which all others followed.
Saying "stage" is a bit misleading as it was just a studio recording. Gillan never sang the role on any stage.
there’s only one grainy black and white recording of him singing it during the recording that I know of, yeah. Just cling to the studio cut and enjoy lol
This is the birth of heavy metal : Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin

Completely understand the ‘smoke’ reference!
I love you guys. You so completely get it.
One of the greatest singers ever and the band plays great
I saw deep purple quite a few times in the 70's & 80's and the smoke was going around me too 😉
When Ian Gillan hit that really high pitch scream, Dominika looked like a mother wanting to run to her screaming child and hold on tight. 😊
My Fav couple! enjoy.
I like the smoke analogy. His voice does wrap itself around you...
This never gets old, and they are all excelling at what they do. What a respectful reaction.

@@psbarrowI stand corrected. Not that it matters too much as the lyrics can be applied to any such scenario, then and now.
@@musashimiyamoto586 No worries, and yes, indeed they can, nothing's changed in that regard since the song was written.

yeah it’s probably a dead heat between Ian and Greg Lake for a British musician who is his own biggest fan lol

Yo los ví en buenos aires y sinceramente son lo mejor,y Vi a ac DC a Maiden , megadeth, Metallica, sepultura. Y no les llegan a los talones
What a wonderful analysis!
Incredible musicians and what a voice lan has!!!! Love Deep Purple! ❤
Thx for the reaction!! Written during the VietNam War.
And you've not been hit
Oh, by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes
Oh
Bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
I was born in '94 and i totally agree with everything you said there at the end! ❤ :)
Hi, I'm thinking what a good time it's been, music from the heart and right to the point
