THis wasn't a cover, it was a completely different song with the same title. The song you are thinking about is Dancing in the Moonlight by the Little River Band, THis was a straight Thin Lizzy song.
I’m happy you’re doing Thin Lizzy. They are easily the most underrated band in Rock history. Every album is amazing beginning to end. Not one bad song. In my opinion, they were the best rock band of the 1970s
@@Anthonyacg138 I would say they were. If you ask any average music fan, they would only know The Boys Are Back In Town. They couldn’t even name one of their album titles.
The first rock concert I saw was in 1977 and it was Thin Lizzy opening for Queen . The '70's were a good time to be in high school . I think Phil Lynott was one of the coolest in the biz .
He is thinking about the king harvest version a very pop oriented song. this one is popping hard rock driven guitar and funky heavy bass driven flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers 🌶 bass playing. This version smokes the King Harvest version.
Thin Lizzy are such a unique band and so underrated! To me, when I think of what a rockstar looks like I see Phil Lynott! He was just something magical and an amazing bassist as well! Together with Rory Gallagher definitely the best rock music Ireland has produced.
This is a Thin Lizzy ORIGINAL, 100%! There is a song by King Harvest which has the same title and has been covered by many artists (most notably, Toploader) but this one you're listening is written by Phil Lynott. The record company actually forced a subtitle (It's Caught Me In Its Spotlight) so that people wouldn't get confused with the older song by King Harvest.
They’re completely different songs, just the title in common. This is an original, written by Phil Lynott (bass and vocals). They also originated the song “Still In Love With You”, which was later covered by Sade.
Summer of 77, Daleymount Park Dublin, open air festival. Fairport Convention, The Boomtown Rats first gig and the one and only Thin Lizzy. The big silver name sign swaying in the breeze, Scott Gorman hair flowing and the debut of this song. Sometimes being old as has its advantages. Great times. Peace out folks ✌
I've seen Phil. Go to Dublin and he's there with his bass. Possibly the greatest rock singer of all time. Phil, to the women in his audience: "Would you like some Irish in you?"
@@kevinlay9902 There's ONLY ONE Dancing in the Moonlight. It belongs to King Harvest. I'm not sure why Lizzy decided to title their mess as Dancing in the Moonlight. At that time, there was still an abundance of other unused titles available instead of causing confusion. I like Lizzy but there's NO comparison between King Harvest and this shit.
@@kenperk9854 ''this shit'' .....you utter fuckwit. they are two T O T A L L Y different songs you clown, if you can't close your eyes....and listen with your ears... you need them tested. Comical comment, we had a good laugh reading it. Not your fault.. the correct and full title of the song is Dancing In The Moonlight Its Got Me In Its Spotlight. But you stick with your sugary pop music type britney spears sounding song though.
No..no..maybe in your part of the world! but not in the UK, he's respected and loved here. I've lost count of how many times I've seen Phil live. He's known here in Liverpool Uk as the first bass player that ever played it like a lead guitar.
The full name of this song is "Dancing in the Moonlight (It's Caught Me in Its Spotlight)" -- so I guess the bit in the parenthesis is supposed to let you know it's an original and not a cover of the King Harvest pop classic. It reminds me of "Spirit in the Night" from Bruce Springsteen's first album, as well as Van Morrison classics like "Wild Night" and "Domino." Check out those songs too when you can.
they are the greatness...I have all formats , album , 8 track , cassette , cd , live...this is 1977 , I graduated high school in '77 "high" on Thin Lizzy
This is easily my favorite Thin Lizzy song. It's just got such a vibe to it that you can't help but love it. I've also got a song suggestion for you that is absolutely nothing like Thin Lizzy: Liquid Tension Experiment - Freedom of Speech.
Yes. In fact, the song is entitled (simply): "Sarah" and is the 2nd song of said title by Thin Lizzy. The first one was written for Phil's grandmother (Philiomena's mother - If you don't know who Philomena Lynott is ...you need to do some reading, son!!) & appears on their sophomore album (with Eric Bell on guitar). The one YOU are referring to is written for Phil's, then infant, first daughter and appears on 1978's: Black Rose: A Rock Legend album (which is the only studio Lizzy album to feature Gary Moore - Phil's first song-writing partner and old friend.). "Sarah" [2nd/Black Rose song] is one of my favorites by Phil or the band and is BEAUTIFUL. ...It, also, demonstrates, both Phil Lynott's and Thin Lizzy's versatility, skill and aptitude. 💜🤘🔥🤘
T. Andra - All true with the minor exception that Gary played guitar on the original studio version of Still In Love With You on the Nightlife album in ‘74.
T. Andra - It’s just such a great song and Gary’s guitar work was so good that Robbo and Phil got in a fight when Robbo refused to redo the solo, saying it was the best guitar playing he had ever heard. I was just trying to relay that to the general public.
This song, “Dancing in the Moonlight” was written by Philip Paris Lynott, himself. The song, “Dancing in the Moonlight” that you are referring to was written by Sherman Kelly and performed by King Harvest. I absolutely love it and it has so many memories attached to it. This is also a good song and has a dancing beat to it. Thank you for reacting to this song!
about 20 million in UK love this song as it takes them straight back to their dating youth days and yes this is all Phil, it's one of the sweetest tunes ever made. Tanks so much for playing it :)
How am I just seeing this video NOW?. Thin Litzy is one of the most brilliant bands ever. Thin Lizzy and King Harvest have two entirely different songs with the same title
They waste no time hitting the groove on this one, right from that first strum of the base they move you. Phil Lynott is one of many musical geniuses who died far too early, but we can be thankful for the legacy he left behind for centuries to come. And it has to be some kind of crime that they have still not been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Tragic, truly tragic.
This a Thin Lizzy original song written by lead singer and bassist Phil Lynott. There are several songs with Dancing in the Moonlight title but are completely different songs. Thin Lizzy title is actually Dancing In The Moonlight (It's Caught Me In It's Spotlight) which sets it apart from the others.
Thin lizzy were an irish band. The lead singer phil lynott is an icon here in ireland. They actually erected a statue in his honour in the capitol city of ireland Dublin. Xx xxx
So many great tunes! This band has a lot to offer anyone who is discovering them for the first time, or re-discovering them. The evolution of the band had so many of rock's heavy hitters involved! Phil Lynott, Gary Moore, John Sykes, Snowy White, Tommy Aldrich, Marco Mendoza.... The list goes on! Lot's of change ups
I love how everyone reacts to this song, especially if they've heard other Lizzy songs prior. They always start out confused, like "are you sure this is the right band?" and then sloooowly, slowly they get lulled into that "it's Saturday night, I got my drink, I got my people here"-feeling. It's inevitable.
Love this band. Great reaction, agree with what you said about covers. People who complain about covers don't understand musicianship. Every great artist did covers. Louis Armstrong, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Aerosmith, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ray Charles all had big hits with covers. The Iconic Artha Franklin song Respect is an Otis Redding cover.
What I love about Thin Lizzy is everyone of there songs is about 5-10 minutes but feels like a 20 minute jam session. Got to be one of the greatest bands of all time.
Phil, he was one of the MEN back in the day, amazing front man without question. Yep Jamal the guy of a thousand expressions lol no need to say anything
The song "Dancing in the Moonlight" that you remember is by King Harvest in 1972,but it was originally recorded in 1970 by Boffalongo and was written by one of their band members, Sherman Kelly.
If you want a Thin Lizzy song that is not a hit but absolutely rocks with guitars and drums going off the scale, Listen to Warriors off the Jailbreak album. Amazing song.
I play this as a Medley with Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Quuen. I love when Rock tracks swing. 1 of the Top 3 songs by the band in my opinion. Thin Lizzy are completely underappreciated and underrated in North America. Pioneers. For God sake, put them in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame already.
Guthrie Govan - Wonderful Slippery Thing (a live version). He is one of the best guitar players in the world along with dudes like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani. You will be absolutely floored
Other Phil Lynott songs you should check out: Bad Reputation, Do What You Want To and Chinatown. Also "Out In The Fields" by Gary Moore featuring Phil Lynott. Gary & Phil were in a band called Skid Row together before Thin Lizzy. When original guitarist Eric Bell left after a New Years Eve concert in '73, Gary Moore was invited to join. He stayed for a number of months before Brian Robertson was hired full-time later that year, alongside Californian Scott Gorham. Robertson left in '78 replaced by a returning Gary Moore, who left for the final time in July '79.
The original “Dancing in the Moonlight” that you know is by King Harvest. This is not a cover; it is a different song with the same title. You should totally do DITM by King Harvest!
@Jamel_AKA_Jamal you are conflating two different songs together that happen to have the same name. This Dancing In The Moonlight song is a Thin Lizzy original! Thanks for the REACTION video, you can never go wrong with a Thin Lizzy song!
I remember listening to dancing in the moonlight in the summer of 1976 and for a change it was a long hot summer here in Ireland it's definitely a thinn lizzy original. You should do the cowboy song
You might enjoy Black Star Riders. They began as a Thin Lizzy touring band years after the band ended following the death of Phil Lynot and featuring two classic members of Thin Lizzy. When they started recording new music, they didnt feel comfortable using the Thin Lizzy name, so they changed it. The music has a definite Thin Lizzy vibe, though. The song "Killer Instinct", "Before The War", and "When The Night Comes In" would be good places to start
King Harvest & Thin Lizzy both did Dancing in the Moonlight ... I dig both of them 😎 Thin Lizzy used a really smooth horn section reminiscent of Bruce Spingstein
You are thinking of the band Harvest Moon, my friend...Dancing in the Moonlight .....every body's feeling warm and bright its such a fine and natural sight,every body's Dancing in the Moonlight
Back in '77 high school era, we had the pleasure of seeing Thin Lizzy, (with Gary Moore), open for Queen...even then, respectfully, I was more of a TL fan. Overlooked by too many, who think of them as one hit wonders.
I was thinking the exact same thing, bro, and when I didn't hear the right intro I was like ohhhhh forgot about this one. Glad more people are knowing Thin Lizzy. They are great for sure. Both awesome songs though :)
Best Thin Lizzy album (in my opinion) Great guitar work and fantastic production. This is not the same song that you're thinking of. It's an original Thin Lizzy song. 👍🍻
Phil Lynott was once asked what it was like to be black and irish his reply was "a bit like a pint of guiness". What a great band.
Nothing compares to Irish wit
LOL
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
A black Irish Man born in West Bromwich (the arse end of Birmingham) England.
he also said " i suppose it was no different then someone growing up with a cauliflower ear "
Forget U2, Thin Lizzy are the greatest Irish rock band ever.
Phil Lynott has been gone 34 years now but their music is timeless.
And I echo the suggestion for "Angel of Death" (and in case you get confused again it's a completely different song to Slayers one 🙂)
Tim Giddey - Rory Gallagher was not a band.
I concur.
perioooooooooooood
And Edge can suck the chocolate stains out of my pants. He's nothing but an echo (ditto) pedal on a cheap guitar. Period. U2 doesn't have shit on Thin Lizzy. I really don't have much of an opinion on this, however......
I've been saying that for many years...seen Thin Lizzy open for Queen in '77 and U2 open for J. Geils Band in '82.
THis wasn't a cover, it was a completely different song with the same title. The song you are thinking about is Dancing in the Moonlight by the Little River Band, THis was a straight Thin Lizzy song.
Indeed. This is the real deal. Accept no substitutes. ;)
I was thinking of the one by king harvest, i didnt actually know little river band did that one too, who did it first?
@@craftywizard361 king Harvest did it first
People it is Van Morrison learn your history
Robert Donoho Van Morrison’s song is Moondance
Thin Lizzy had so much soul. They could play rock, blues, jazz, funk....or put them all in one song. Amazing! And that voice. Sweet soulful tones.
I’m happy you’re doing Thin Lizzy. They are easily the most underrated band in Rock history. Every album is amazing beginning to end. Not one bad song. In my opinion, they were the best rock band of the 1970s
They certainly weren’t underrated
wrong!
@@Anthonyacg138 I would say they were. If you ask any average music fan, they would only know The Boys Are Back In Town. They couldn’t even name one of their album titles.
@@mikejanke2690 Right!
To be short: you are absolutely right!!!
The first rock concert I saw was in 1977 and it was Thin Lizzy opening for Queen . The '70's were a good time to be in high school . I think Phil Lynott was one of the coolest in the biz .
What a feather in the rock legend cap! If would have killed you seen that! I’ll bet is was beyond great!
I remember.. Thin Lizzy opening for Queen.. I was a teenager in heaven.
Even before I clicked "Play", I said to myself- "He is gonna be soooooo confused...."
This isn't a cover, just one of the greatest songs of all time.
He is thinking about the king harvest version a very pop oriented song. this one is popping hard rock driven guitar and funky heavy bass driven flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers 🌶 bass playing. This version smokes the King Harvest version.
I'M TEARING UP!WHY?BECAUSE I LOVE THIN LIZZY ❤
Lucky enough to see Thin lizzy many times in the 70's. Best times
One of the most criminally underrated bands ever. Absolutely phenomenal live as well.

They’re completely different songs, just the title in common. This is an original, written by Phil Lynott (bass and vocals). They also originated the song “Still In Love With You”, which was later covered by Sade.
OMG! I just checked that out! 😭💔
Thank you Mark, really, it's as beautiful as Phil's original.
wow
Correct Dancing in the Moonlight (It's Caught Me in Its Spotlight) full title.
Summer of 77, Daleymount Park Dublin, open air festival. Fairport Convention, The Boomtown Rats first gig and the one and only Thin Lizzy. The big silver name sign swaying in the breeze, Scott Gorman hair flowing and the debut of this song. Sometimes being old as has its advantages. Great times. Peace out folks ✌
One of the best Irish rock bands out there. Phil Lynott was amazing.
Another cool T'in Lizzy song for you is "Don't believe a word"
Ron Nelson that guitar solo 👌🏻
All Lizzy's songs are great
yas!!
Massacre is pretty cool too
Their song Suicide , (about a character on the old Perry Mason tv show) really kicks ass too!
I've seen Phil. Go to Dublin and he's there with his bass. Possibly the greatest rock singer of all time. Phil, to the women in his audience: "Would you like some Irish in you?"
hehe, the song is Dancing in the Moonlight but the band is King Harvest. You totally should do a reaction to that song too.
You got the right version but no reaction, please.
Nah that song blows
Different song completely

One of my favourites is Waiting For An Alibi. Amazing twin guitars on that one!
Their music has soul and a pep to its step. For real!
I feel like Phil Lynott is overlooked and underrated especially when it comes to Black rock stars
He's a legend through and through!
No..no..maybe in your part of the world! but not in the UK, he's respected and loved here.

Love this song! My first concert was Thin Lizzy and Queen in January 1977! Greatest night of my life!
This song kills it on every level- bass, vocals, guitar, sax- just rocks
This is easily my favorite Thin Lizzy song. It's just got such a vibe to it that you can't help but love it. I've also got a song suggestion for you that is absolutely nothing like Thin Lizzy: Liquid Tension Experiment - Freedom of Speech.
Little River Band didn’t do Dancing In the moonlight. King Harvest did that one
You should really check out their song "My Sarah", written for Phil Lynott's newborn daughter. It's a beautiful song!
Should probably specify that you mean the one off ‘Black Rose,’ as they have another song titled “Sarah” off their album ‘Shades of a Blue Orphanage’
Yes. In fact, the song is entitled (simply): "Sarah"
and is the 2nd song of said title by Thin Lizzy.

Must React to Thin Lizzy's Emerald too!
Swing, swagger, jazzy, blues just great. Love the guitar solo.

The Dancing in the moonlight that you remember was by the band King Havest and was released in 1972. Different song completely.
One of the greatest songs of all time in my opinion!!!👌

Phillo is a legend.
King Harvest Original; This Thin Lizzy version is killer !!!!
The one you are thinking about is by a group named King Harvest, they they had one named the same. Thin Lizzy's is their own, as far as I know.
Phil Lynott wrote a lot about his life and times as well as historical Irish figures..."life" like you mentioned on some of your other reviews
I love your dance moves! This song makes it impossible to stay still!
Phil, he was one of the MEN back in the day, amazing front man without question. Yep Jamal the guy of a thousand expressions lol no need to say anything

You are so funny with your nerdy dance moves! I love you for it!🤗🤗🤗
This is so good. When you feel down or have had a bad day, just put on some Thin Lizzy, that will put a smile on your face.😊👍🏻

Thank you Phil is a Star
I saw them the exact same tour. At the Forum in Inglewood Ca. First concert I ever went to. I was in the 9th grade.
The original song came out in 1973 and was sung by the band King Harvest. I remember when it came out.
god I hope you like this band. so under appreciated.

Thin Lizzy should never be in the same breath as Toploader.
Kipper Republic hahahaha ha ! Spot on.
"Suicide" is a great great thin lizzy track.
The song you're thinking about is by King Harvest. 70s Gold. One of the first 45s I ever owned.

I love dancing in the moonlight always like that song. Hey Hey Thin Lizzy cowboy song cowboy song

King Harvest & Thin Lizzy both did Dancing in the Moonlight ... I dig both of them 😎
Thin Lizzy used a really smooth horn section reminiscent of Bruce Spingstein
Thin Lizzie made this their own while paying homage to King Harvest ...
You are thinking of the band Harvest Moon, my friend...Dancing in the Moonlight .....every body's feeling warm and bright its such a fine and natural sight,every body's Dancing in the Moonlight
what a tune this my first time i thought was the other dancing in the moonlight
KING HARVEST originally did the one that you're thinking of in the 70s. MY FAVORITE!!!!!!
They once asked Phil Lynott (singer/bass guitar) what it was like to be a black man in Ireland “ kind of like pint of Guinness”
Back in '77 high school era, we had the pleasure of seeing Thin Lizzy, (with Gary Moore), open for Queen...even then, respectfully, I was more of a TL fan. Overlooked by too many, who think of them as one hit wonders.
Now that’s a groove
Thin Lizzy
I was thinking the exact same thing, bro, and when I didn't hear the right intro I was like ohhhhh forgot about this one. Glad more people are knowing Thin Lizzy. They are great for sure. Both awesome songs though :)
Best Thin Lizzy album (in my opinion) Great guitar work and fantastic production. This is not the same song that you're thinking of. It's an original Thin Lizzy song. 👍🍻
