This hit hard but in a great way!
I'm 77. We had the best music and man, the memories. My younger me just came back. Friends, good times, concerts, care free life, wonderfu music. Thank you
This hit me hard as well, I first heard this Masterpiece in 1969 by a local band doing a cover of it. Love it then and now . Emotions and memories all good.
Yea brother. 70 year old vet here. These songs are the soundtrack of my life
A man in buckets of tears is a proper man 👍😏
It hits us all the same way, Robk, those of us who were there.
This tune is at the top of many musicians favorites list. It's an absolutely brilliant song.
Loved your reaction. It's incredibly wonderful how music can stir the memories, good or unfortunately sad.
This Hammond Orgen kills me every time again . This was His ever last Live performance , so thank God He got such great musician around who know what they gifted to Him and us , a never been forgotten last say good buy to all who loved the journey called life . R.I.P. Garry
Yes, Gary Brooker was one of the greats. Here is at 61 and sounded just as good as he did in 1967 when this song first came out. Sadly, We lost Gary to cancer in February of 2021 but his songs will live on.
Sounds better than the 1967 version. Like a good bottle of wine, just improves with age.
@billprice8596: Brooker died February 2022.
When the live performance is better than the recording tells you what a great Garry Brooker was and is! I’m 54 years old but I remember my dad playing this song and I fell in love with the song. When I heard this live performance for the first time the memories of my child hood came rushing back. Remember sitting next to my dad’s stereo system and listening to Procol Harum . The memories. R.I.P. Garry Brooker❤️❤️❤️
It hit me too.. like I saw my life passing by.. Beautiful reaction and I love when men allow tears to come (please excuse a swede for the english)
The older we get, the more the tears flow..... I turn 69 on May 9th. And I have tears in my eyes.
This is just magical isn't it? One of the greatest songs ever written, and then performed by the great Gary Brooker. This is music at it's finest. Great reaction!
I'm 62 and I also cry everytime I hear this song, especially this performance ❤
Beautiful isn't it? Glad you enjoyed it!
Dito , heard this song first time at the age of 2,5 years , my mom told me I react to this like she don't can't understand . Every time in my Live I heard this song I realized whow much I love music , but this one was like a bottle of good old wine you harvest by yourself and when you take the first small taste of it ... all you discoverd in Life comes back to you and fill my Eyes every time with respect to the gift to travell thru what god gave to Us .
Dear Rob, I couldnt listnen to this song for 37 years, because ofthe passing of a highschool friend, this hé played by cassette recording and was played at his funeral.... please accept my virtual hug (the biggest one your heart can handle) from a stranger from the Netherlands ❤❤❤
Bless you dear! I pray your heart heals❣️ ❤️💔❤️🩹❤️
@@Grammichal thank you so much
Nothing like the sound of a Hammond organ to take me back to the 60's.
This is a song from the 1960's! Loved it when I was a kid! But Gary Brooker never sounded better than in this concert!
Based on the melody of Air On A G String, by Bach. This ruled the airwaves in summer of 67
i love this song....very good...thanks for reaction...
Loved your reaction it hits me the same way every time I hear it. 😊❤🇺🇲
A great reaction. Thank you for strengthening the memories.
Yup! I was gonna say at the beginning there is no way you could live to your age and not know this song. Lots of emotions all connect back to my youth. Keep going fellow Canadian.
I am right there with you....l'm 66 and l found this few weeks ago. It was in my younger years....never forgot it. NOW l cant stop listening. You had a great reaction to this song!!!!
"My whole life just flashed". And so it does for me each time I see this. Thank You.
Love your reaction to this song! I love this song 💟☮️🎶
I love your reaction brother genuine..❤❤❤
Loved the reaction.😊
When the live version is better than the original. Doesn't happen very often
A lovely reaction, sir. Music should evoke memories be very happy or sad. Music is everything.
Hi Rob, was hoping you would get to this one & very glad you did. Totally amazing!! Had the same effect on me the first time I heard this 2006 rendition a few years ago. A National Symphony, a choir an iconic 60's band and the great vocals of Gary B. - It's insane how good this is - I count it as one of the best live music performances ever. If/When you get time, check out Lucy Thomas's cover to this song. Take care
Wow…..Great reaction video! First time viewer here (🤔 just might have to subscribe if you do more of this quality) 👍 As you said, music is powerful - brings back so many memories - of love lost, friends passed on, and yet so many fine memories as well.
If you are interested, I have some comments, interpreting the lyrics of this song which gives it even a deeper dimension - I will share that at the end of this - (and sorry for this detailed commentary, but I think you will find it helpful if you listen to the song again and/or share it with others).
Gary Brooker’s incredible singing in this live performance matched - or perhaps even exceeded - the quality of the original 1967 recording that took place 40 years earlier.
The band’s name comes from a couple of possible sources. One of the band members in ‘67 had a cat named Procol Harum. This is Latin for “Far beyond these things”…. Personally, I think they named the band after the cat. 😁
This song and about 3 or 4 others defined the sound and the scene that was the “Summer of Love”. Unfortunately, that beautiful era only lasted about three years…. Innocence lost - marked by another outdoor concert in December ‘69 at Altamont - The Rolling Stones - they hired the Hells Angels motorcycle gang to be their “security” force - 4 people died that night.
However, great music continued to come out from the late 60s all through to the mid 90s. But 1967 through Woodstock 1969 was magic.
There has been much debate/misunderstanding regarding the lyrics. I believe I can unlock the mystery for you. The lyrics are mostly metaphorical.
The song is about a young couple who are attending a party perhaps at a ballroom - maybe even on a ship. They were either entertainers for the crowd, or they were just part of the crowd dancing….”We skipped the Light Fandango” but instead did “cartwheels across the floor”, implying that they were having a great time, perhaps even on their way to getting drunk. The room seem to be shaking apart as they “ordered another drink”, but the waiter brought a tray of many drinks.
As the night wore on, the young man was fast becoming interested in having a more private intimate time with this young girl…. But yet even through her near drunkenness, she sensed it, and became frightened.
As the young man shuffled through his “playing cards” - a metaphor for looking for that winning hand to convince her to go with him - she again was unable or unwilling to give into him. Even as he told her stories, and lies about himself to impress and take advantage of her she knew she was potentially headed for trouble as “The truth was plain to see”.
The vestal virgin metaphor clearly implied that she was young, inexperienced, and not ready for what she feared was his ultimate intent.
But he kept on with his tales and lies, and he “would not let her be”…..ramping up the pressure on her to give in. This frightened her tremendously.
I know that Gary Brooker and his cowriter actually wrote two more verses, that were never studio recorded (except that there are a few other live performances by Procol Harum that include the 3rd & 4th verse - which makes an otherwise spectacular pop song from the late ‘60’s way too long and it becomes tedious to listen to). The 3rd & 4th verses are also full of images and metaphors which keep the listener always a bit unsure how that story ends.
Again, I want to say your reaction video was excellent.
Well done
Superb reaction Rob. ✌️
Memories.1970 i was in prison but we sang .through the windows. I sang this song.because i co hit the notes.many songs. Beautiful song.b.t.w.good luck .never give in.
Your exhale at the start said it all
❤
Beautiful song. So many memories as a young teenager in love with my cute girlfriend. New Subscriber too
I saw Procol Harem in 1972 At the Santa Monica Civic Center, the best part is the newbies Eagles opened up for them
VERY COOL! I LOVE this song. 1969 high school graduate. I’ve also been a major fan of the Eagles for decades. My claims to fame are Jimi Hendrix, the Fifth Dimension and Simon and Garfunkel in about ‘68 and ‘82. I just missed the Beatles when I was about 12 years old. I’ve been in the Seattle area most of my life but the family was with my dad when he was doing active duty training for the Navy in New York City. Someone gave the guys tickets to a band he had never heard of before, so he turned them down. 😮 I probably would’ve been trampled it at Shea Stadium anyway, right? I saw Carlos Santana and Earth, Wind, and Fire not so long ago. ✌🏽
❤😊

It’s actually a Bach tune from about 3 hundred years ago.

Kenny Rogers water and bridge......
song was first made in 1967 dude
Hi sir, please react to Gökhan Kırdar: Yerine Sevemem 1994 🥰 Nice reaction btw. :))
Original 1967
"WHITER" not "Winter".
The original 1967 record had far more atmosphere and vibe.
Sometimes god shows up
Lose the caption service, and please get the the title right, whiter shade of pale not winter shade of pale.
That is why I dont care for music really.
