My late brother loved this song so much he wanted it played at his funeral. It is one of my absolute favorites.
Sorry about your brother great song to play to memorialize him.
I listened to this song following a transplant, heart attack, and bypass surgeries within a 4 month period, followed by therapy. Stevie Winwood carried me through the years.
❤❤ 😢
So sorry for your loss. Great taste for sure. 💛🌼🥺🙏🏼
It’s a beautiful song!
"While You See A Chance" is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Steve Winwood is extremely talented.
A DEFINITE must-listen!
'Arc of a Diver' was such a great album. My intro to solo Steve Winwood.
Yesss
I was only a kid back then and "When You See A Chance" dominated radio to such a degree that you sang along before knowing who the artist was. Such a timeless iconic Winwood classic. I've said a billion times: Steve Winwood is Goodwood. He's musical salve for the soul. 😊
When you see a chance is a must!!!!!
Even when Winwood's being mellow... he's more soulful than most singers on the scene.
Very well said!
"Back in the High Life Again" peaked @ #13 on the Billboard Hot100 in 1987. James Taylor provides the backing vocal.
I thought that was JT.
I never knew that about James Taylor. Good to know.
@@loristone9242 There is that one point at the end of the song where JT he sings a solo part. know that you know, becomes perfectly clear it is him.
I had just started dating my now husband that year. I love this song.
This man joined the Spencer Davis Group when he was 14 years old, Island Records. Producer and founder Chris Blackwell later said of Winwood, "He was really the cornerstone of Island Records. At age 16 the Spencer Davis Groups' first recording became a hit. He moved on to Traffic and Blind Faith, before starting his solo career..
If I remember correctly, he sang "Gimme Some Lovin" while still a teenager. Quite a voice!
Chris Blackwell was a vampire devil.
Even crazier, his first professional performances were at age 8 in the Ron Atkinson band (with his father and older brother).
@@theresatrapp4532 The Spencer Davis Group's first single was 'Keep On Running' and Steve was 17 when it was a hit in the UK (I don't know if it was ever heard in the USA). It was followed by 'Somebody Help Me' then Gimme Some Lovin'. I first saw them in Edinburgh when Steve was still 17 or 18.
If you haven't heard them, have a listen to 'Every Little Bit Hurts' and 'Georgia On My Mind' - still with the SDG. They're on youtube.
This album, Peter Gabriel’s “So” and Paul Simon’s “Graceland” were all released within a few months of each other. A great time in pop/rock music
Indeed! 😊
👏👏👏👏👏
Absolutely! All brilliant artists. Why don't we have people like this in the mainstream charts (like Spotify) any more? Such creativity 🥰
Exactly, those albums are part of my youth and the sound tracks of my life.
Oh my goodness! I still play Graceland from beginning to end on days when I need some sunshine for my soul.
Please "Somewhere Down the Crazy River" for Robbie Robertson, founder of The Band, who sadly died yesterday at 80. It is a great song, and you will love it. THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN MEMORY OF ROBBIE. HE DESERVES A TRIBUTE.
Great song!
I agree, be nice to pay a tribute to Robbie Robertson
Great tune!
I agree! 🙌🏻💯‼️
You knew that Steve Winwood played organ on Robbie's "How To Become Clairvoyant" album, right? 😉
36 years ago, after a hard time in life, I met the love of my life, and this song was on the radio. I'll never forget it.
Steve Winwood is brilliant ❤️
Steve’s wonderful voice has graced many classics over the decades, you should check out Blind Faith - Can’t Find My Way Home
GREAT suggestion ❤
One of the best songs EVER.
One of my favorite voices. Great song choice! Love the mandolin and James Taylor’s backing vocals. I recommend “While You See A Chance” for your next Steve Winwood song.
One of my favorites of Steve Winwood was When You See a Chance.
Great suggestion 🥰
Can't deny this tune. One of his greatest. A favorite of mine, along with Winwood's "The Finer Things" ( Which is different but still very similar)
“The Finer Things” was my introduction to Steve Winwood. Love that song.
And, yup, Steve played mandolin. The guy can play so many things. Huge talent of which I am so impressed...even after all these years.
'Don't You Know What The Night Can Do?' and 'While You See A Chance' are two of my favorite Steve Winwood songs. He also wrote and sang an excellent song called 'I'm a Man,' but you might want to listen to Chicago's version of that song first.
Absolutely!❤️
Don't you know what the night can do is my FAVORITE!
Dirty City, gimme some Loving
Great tune! He has some wonderful music, solo and with several bands. Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith, Traffic...
Seminal groups!
I Like the stuff he did with Traffic even though I also like The Spencer Davis group and Blind Faith
@@robertaistrope9602 ok
@@robertaistrope9602 Yes the Traffic song ‘The Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys’ is a great song! 👍👍
Steve Winwood is very talented, I love his music!! I am so glad you are enjoying it too!🎶🎵
I think you'll love "While You See a Chance" every bit as much as I do!
Not one of his most popular, but my favorite song of his is, "While You See a Chance."
Mine too ❤
Same!
He made such feel good hits! It's impossible to be in a bad mood listening to things like this, Higher Love, While You See A Chance etc.
“And we'll drink and dance with one hand free
And have the world so easily…”
Best line ever…
❤
I'm surprised as all heck that no one has mentioned "Low spark and high heeled boys" back when he was in Traffic! That's A MUST!!!
I've been asking for this for months!
@lokivt haha yeah maybe it will get in rotation! I've been giving some great suggestions for the past year, since I became a sub, but I know they get TONS of suggestions so I'm patient!
That Back In The High Life album was huge when I was a junior at Marion High School, SC in 1986. That laid back music with those poetic words helped us focus on the positive. God Bless.
Steve Winwood was a visionary…so unique and creative and ahead of his time.
There just is no bad Steve Winwood song.
Such an artist.
Jay & Amber, You'll love his "The Finer Things" and "While You See A Chance"!!!! Great singer/songwriter/keyboard player!!!
Also guitarist!
The Finer Things is another great song from his solo career. However, his former band, Traffic, has some incredible songs. The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, Empty Pages, and Glad/Freedom Rider are not to be missed. Always great to hear Mr. Winwood!
Low Spark of High Heeled Boys in one of my favorites also.
The Finer Things from the same album as his along with Higher Love! Incredible album!
He's a world treasure!@@kona883
This! Please Low Spark of High Heeled Boys!
Time to do some early Steve Winwood, the man was a genuine prodigy, his first hits with The Spencer Davis Group, Gimme Some Loving and I’m a Man came out when he was just 16 and were songs he wrote when he was 14. They still rock 60 years later. ✌️
While you see a chance is a song you just should not miss covering. Quite meaningful and beautiful
If you're looking for an upbeat tempo try "I'm a Man" or "Gimme Some Loving" both from the Spencer Davis Group featuring Steve Winwood on lead vocals. Both these songs will rock your world with Steve Winwood vibing with his vocals. You'll be snapping your fingers and stomping your feet.
You can never go wrong with Steve Winwood. I agree, Higher Love is my fave. But this one is amazing! Just a different vibe. Great choice.
His vocals with the Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, and Blind Faith are more than worth exploring
If you’ve ever been knocked down in life…..this song is what it feels like to get back up. Great song.
James Taylor's backing vocals during the chorus of this song are perfect. You guys have got to get into Steve's early stuff with the Spencer Davis Group.
I am at that age now where I know how my parents felt when there old songs where played .It brings back good memories but at the same time there is a deep sadness that it is gone forever .
A young 14 year old Stevie Winwood joined The Spencer Davies Group back in the 60s, and the rest they say, is history. ❤🎼
Please put "The Finer Things" on your list for Steve Winwood.
Stellar song! :)
Steve's daughter Lily did a cover of Higher Love with him. It has a very different feel than the original but is very beautiful.
I got to see her open up for Steve + his band several years ago ! That was great to see her have her chance in the spotlight and she did really well. That duet with her Dad was one of the highlights for sure.
This is such a great song and such beautiful music 🎶 I love Mr. Winwood's voice.
If I could sing at all, I'd want to sing like Steve Winwood! I was sold on that voice as a kid the first time I heard "Gimme Some Lovin".
One of the best albums of the 80s, period. Oh, and this song throws in a single line by James Taylor at the end
Yes!!!!!! This is such a great song. It’s reflective,romantic and heart touching
Robbie Robertson has passed. Deserves extra special tribute for both his solo work and The Band
I'd love to hear "I Will Be Released."
Have loved this guy since the 60's. Sooo smooth...and cute as hell.
Oh that’s such a good song! Grrrrreat memories!:
My Mom is a big fan of Steve Winwood. His songs carry people through some hard times, including me. I have been through some pretty difficult stretches of my life, but songs like this carry me forward
When his album "Arc Of The Diver" came out, there were a few singles lifted, and they were all fire. I'd never heard of him before, but back then, radio DJs use to throw it bits of info at you (there was no internet to look people up!!) and I realised I had heard (and enjoyed) music he'd done with other bands over the years.
Steve Winwood, Traffic, "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" Just great!!!
This reminds me of traveling across the country with my mother, as a 19year old. We quickly grew tired of the radio. Found this album at a truck stop store,and played the heck out of it!❤
With Traffic - The Low Spark of High Heeled boys - incredible!! Thank you!!
I remember when this song first came out. I just broke up with someone and lost my job. This song helped encourage my motivation to kick into high gear. New love and a new job came quickly.
How can this song not lift your spirits? !!!
I vote for y’all to listen to Steve with the Spencer Davis Group sing the classic Gimme Some Lovin’. It’s just a must 🙌🏻💯‼️
Steve Winwood is such an underrated genius! He had a lot of success VERY early on, then had a lull in his career. This song was indicative of his return to stardom, and I love the message.
If you haven't already, listen to "Gimme Some Lovin'" from The Spencer Davis Group. Steve is the lead singer on it, and he was SIXTEEN when they recorded it. Absolutely amazing! This man has an incredibly amount of soul and talent.
I love Steve Winwood. Saw him in concert in the late 80s.❤
Check out his early music. "Gimme Some Lovin", The Spencer Davis Group, 1967. He was in high school when he wrote and performed this classic.
This whole album was great. I played it constantly when it came out. I think it was probably his top selling album. I would recommend checking out "Can't Find My Way Home", the version he put up on his channel a few years ago, solo acoustic, fantastic version.
I'm thankful you are helping to revive all these good tunes. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, but we had great music, great hash and beautiful hippie girls...
You have so much to discover yet in Steve Winwood's catalog. His start with the Spencer Davis Group at the age of 17 writing and singing hit songs like Gimme Some Lovin' and I'm A Man. The one album from the supergroup Blind Faith (with Eric Clapton) and the beautiful song Can't Find My Way Home. His years with Traffic (such an amazing band) and so many great songs on so many great albums. Dear Mr. Fantasy, The Low Spark Of High-heeled Boys, John Barleycorn Must Die, Paper Sun, Medicated Goo and so much more.
Warren Zevon did an incredible acoustic version of this song that completely changes how you hear it.
Man! Only great artists today. This is my favourite one from Mr. Winwood. Great reaction! Greetings from Brazil!
"While You See a Chance" is the one. That song inspired me to play keyboards. It's magical.
Pure Awesomeness with Steve Winwood
Don't forget, Mr. Fantasy. That is Steve in Traffic
Remember he was the singer for The Spencer Davis Group and Traffic!
😃
My favorite is "The Vacant Chair" that was on the same album as "Valerie." Very beautiful, soulful sound. ❤
Gimme Some Lovin' from his days with The Spencer Davis Group, when he was 16 is one the best, songs ever.
ahh yes...80's Steve Winwood...PERFECT for Daddy's 'calm down/post-workout mix tape'...🤭
"While You See A Chance" is a Winwood song absolutely worth checking out!
Don’t forget his band , Traffic fire 🔥!
One of the anthems of my entire life.
This whole album is great.
The instrument in your left ear is Steve Winwood on the mandolin, one of the half-dozen instruments he plays. The backing vocals are by James Taylor.
Next Steve Winwood: Gimme Some Lovin!! He did it as part of the Spencer Davis Group, which he joined when he was 14! He'd been playing professionally with his dad & brother in pubs etc since he was 8 and backing up touring American Blues musicians in the UK since he was a teen. Gimme Some Lovin is one of the most famous rock/pop songs ever and very upbeat..you'll love it.
I remember this playing on the radio and Mtv for the first time. I was a kid and this guy caught my ear
I love James Taylor in the harmonies. Such a great song.
Checkout the live version of this when he is 30 years older, unbelievable, one of my top favourite artist
Steve Winwood up tempo singing with Spencer Davis Group at 14 years old, Gimme Some Lovin’
"Drink and dance with one hand free" -- imagery that depicts someone really enjoying themselves with a song and a dance!
This was his great "comeback" album and probably his best selling. While the Number One hit "Higher Love" (with the incomparable Chaka Khan) was the song everyone raved about, and rightly so, this title track was my favorite. It was a song about being back on top after a long time out of the spotlight. Such a personal song resonated with a lot of people.
they played this to every major sporting event montage in the 80's on NBC, very inspirational
Winwood and Clapton performing Tell the Truth live in their 60s. MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!!
Steve has an immediately recognisable voice. From Spencer Davis group to present time, you cannot miss his fantastic voice. A top ten voice of all time for me. Great vid,.
It's such an understated, yet totally catchy melody. The chorus gives me joy. The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys is one of my favourite Steve Winwood tracks (in the group Traffic)
Just love Stevie Winwood. In fact, one of my old Traffic/Stevie Winwood buddies and his wife were visiting yesterday so I'm ready!! I'm unashamedly singing along. Another absolutely one-of-a-kind talent. Knew you would dig that snare drum, Jay. And Amber. James Taylor right at the end, singing BITHL, yeah? Thanks. Great reaction.
It's my favorite Steven Winwood song.
One of my faves from Steve. So soothing and uplifting at the same time. He does that really well with just his voice, never mind the lyrics themselves.
Remember when they filmed this in Manassas VA and surrounding areas near Warrenton. People were massed all around off camera to get a glimpse of Winwood
I had the biggest crush on Steve Winwood in the 80s. Never got the chance to see him live in concert. I played his Arc of a Diver album every day for ages!
Beautiful. Just beautiful. I love myself some Steve Winwood. I feel he can be underrated and slightly overlooked at times, but he truly contributed so much to music at that time. There's nothing like the 80's. I'm so glad I grew up in this decade. I'm soon to be 50 and I still choose this decade over all the others. I'm not taking away from other decades. They all had great music but the 80's speak to my heart even until today.
Everything aside, some songs simply work perfectly. This is one of them.
This video was filmed in my hometown of Manassas, VA at my old high school and the train station. Good times!
Cool 😎 ❤
Here's a little tidbit: the harmony vocal was done by James Taylor, a legend in his own right.
Don't forget, you've also heard Steve Winwood on Traffic's Dear Mr Fantasy & Blind Faith's Can't Find My Way Home. If you listen to Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Chile (different from the rocking out style of Voodoo Child, this is more bluesy) you'll hear him on organ! Jimi sought him out to play with him and they worked together on that version of the song. JImi wanted to be in a band with Steve, he respected him so much.
Steve Winwood is fire!
I LOVE STEVIE WINWOOD!!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for the reaction!!!
Steve Winwood is an amazing artist he started off as the singer and playing piano with The Spencer Davis Band then went on to form the band Traffic playing piano, guitar and lead vocalist then went to his solo career in the 80's and just exploded. He is the true Goat!!!
Had his first hit song when he was 16. Still making music almost 60 years later.
Steve is the perfect example of an artist that is so capable that he has been successful in so many different groups as well as a solo artist. Warren Zevon did a fantastic cover of this song. You guys need to get some Warren going on your channel. Start with the "Excitable Boy" record. "Excitable Boy", "Roland the Thompson Gunner", "Lawyers, Guns and Money", "Tenderness on the Block" etc. I see youo've already done "Werewolves of London".
Don't forget Nighttime In The Switching Yard.
@@KenRoerden Jeff Porcaro
@@beachbumsailordude He laid down one helluva groove.
Love Steve Wynwood
"Stevie" Winwood was an underrated musician to all except those who could appreciate music and his phenomenal musicianship!
Grammy Award winning Steve Winwood is one of my favorite artists. This is my favorite song from his solo career. This video was shot in the town that I call home; Manassas, VA. The train station welcomes several Amtrak and commuter trains every day, the downtown has nice shops and restaurants and the building Steve is walking in front of is now an arts center. I don't know why Manassas was chosen for the video location, but I am glad it was.
One of my favorite artist. An EXTREMELY TALENTED MUSICIAN. Quite a long and deep career.
Puts on a great show! Can't miss with his music going all the way back to Spencer Davis. Love to hear more! Another great show guys. Keep up the good work!
Always loved Winwood and 20 years ago got to hang out with him when he would occasionally sit in with the house band at our hotel bar. Great memories.
