I've heard this song a thousand times but I have never listened to it so intently as today nor have I ever really dissected the lyrics before until today. I'm certainly not prudish by any stretch but they are surprisingly bawdy, something I never realized. In the context of the song however they are remarkably beautiful and even spiritual. The love where you lose yourself in that person, connect in a way where you become one entity, absorb every aspect of them body and soul, and celebrate that limitless love in such a way can be such a magical experience. Some people live their whole lives never having the chance to experience love so profoundly. Thank you Kirti, Savio and Priti, for helping me see this (and many other) songs in a whole new way.
@@88wildcat This one too: "You ripple like a river when I touch you When I pluck your body like a string When I start dancin' inside ya Oh baby, you make me wanna sing Yeah, baby, baby, baby, baby Oh yeah, all right Baby, we're sure doin' it tonight."
@ripsaa2003 I'd be embarrassed to react to a borderline pornographic song like this with my young daughter, but they probably didn't know about the content, or their daughter is mature enough to handle it. This song was very explicit for the time it was written. With Cardi B singing about her WAP, this is very tame.
Marty is so passionate with this amazing love song about a guy so blown away by the incredible, sweet experience of loving the woman he loves. All he can do is keep begging her to trust in him, as he believes in the miracle of finding true love. If only she'll believe like he believes in the miracle of love, they will make it. One of my favorite love songs ever.
Hi Enoma, many nights in the 70's lying in bed in the dark with my headphones on, nothing but the green light of my stereo, takes me back, Marty Balin had a big hit with a song called HEARTS, Beautiful song.
Lady on the left got before everyone else did, very deep song with a real meaning, heard it at 10 years old a few months after it came out in 75, it came on the radio a couple after that then a certain girl broke it down one day. A few years later at 13 I found out that the song was inspired in part by the Indian guru Sathya Sai Baba, whose followers believe him to have been a miracle worker. It was also inspired in part by a woman Marty Balin was in love with at the time. It's a song that you may or may not be ready for!! However the lady on the left got it!!!
Jump on the Starship & head for the stars! Sadly; the singer passed away in 2018 - great legacy he left us! Loved all 3 your reactions; Priti saying she's 'taking this one' is adorable...OK; I never do patreon, but this persuaded me;)
My absolute favorite reaction channel ! It is so interesting to see people from a different cultural background enjoying and relishing songs that have been so endearing and interwoven into so many special unforgettable times in my life here in the States. All of you are doing great work, and may i just add....the tourism dept in your country should be paying you because those lovely ladies by your side scream higher than the hilltops...come see and experience India !!
This was one of my late Mother's favorite songs. It makes me happy that you have reviewed it with such nice reactions. I will become a patron.

One of the greatest ballads ever written. It is part of my music collection and really takes me back to my childhood. So brilliant! I love y’all’s reaction to this classic love song.
This song is not beautiful solely due to vocals and lyrics but due to instrumentation of the band members, Craig Chaquico (lead guitar), Bass/Keyboards (Pete Sears), Johny Barbata (drums) and the additional band members, David Freiberg and Papa John Creach. It was a very cooperative band. Also, they had Irv Cox on saxophone on this track. Give 'em all credit.
There's always some kind of a special aura that emanates from all of you in your videos. Anyway, I'm subscribing to your channel. I enjoy it immensely.
Wow. I have been listening to this song for 100 years, heard it 10 million times and I had no idea it was Jefferson Starship. I always thought it was Ambrosia or something. Its a Lite Rock Radio standard. Thanks!
I just stopped to experience your reactions, and i loved it. To try to embrace the music seems sincere. And your heart felt response to what you felt inspired me, to write a more thoughtful lyrical content in the future. I'll be back to see you guys again, stay sincere and open minded.
Man such a great song . I remember this growing up and loving it. I believe the guy singing has passed away.....Marty something. Grace Slick. The band went thru slot of changes over the years.,name changes,different singers etc This song fabulous.....keep up the good and honest reactions
Try the tunes, Count On Me and Runaway, by Jefferson Starship. Both have Marty Balin on vocals. He's on vocals here on Miracles as well...RIP Marty Balin...
Marti Balin was a very special and sincere soul. It is interesting to know that he was a friend with Vishnujana Swami, who played with Jefferson Airplane at the very beginning, but later joined the mission of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupad. Marti Balin once visited the Temple in L.A. and he played Vishnujana Swami the song "Good Shepard." You see, this kind of idealism is rare in this materialistic world. Marti Balin expressed in his own limited and to some extent ignorant way, but he was searching. Hope he will find it to a greater extent in his next life. Blessings!
I grew up on this song i love it but when i listen to it i cry maybe because i was married for 20 years our parents did not let us play house we married very young but 20 years later i found him home dead heart attack he was 38 a year later i met my next husband now it is my turn and even though im sick and he has to do a lot for me he still here and when im in the hospital he is there but he knows its just a matter of time but he is still here
In order to secure more radio airplay for the song, the full-length album version of "Miracles" (6 minutes, 52 seconds long) was cut by more than half its length for the single, which was released at a length of 3 minutes, 25 seconds. This edit was done not only for length, but to remove the sexual reference in the line "I had a taste of the real world when I went down on you, girl."
Where did you get that info from ? Marty Balin had this song in mind for a long time,but it never came to full realization until early 1975.The band had already changed its name to Jefferson Starship,and had released the "Dragonfly" album the year before.Paul Kantner had already toyed with the Jefferson Starship name in 1970 with his "Blows Against The Empire" album.But when the "Red Octopus " album came out in 1975,from which "Miracles" was lifted,they were in full steam as Jefferson Starship -not Airplane,and this song was not a Jefferson Airplane recording.
I little trivia about this song: It was inspired in part by the Indian guru Sathya Sai Baba, whose followers believe him to have been a miracle worker. It was also inspired in part by a woman Balin was in love with at the time. According to Jeff Tamarkin's book Got a Revolution! Marty wrote the song right after returning from a spiritual pilgrimage to India to study Vedanta under guru Sathya Sai Baba. He had made the trip with a lover named Barbara and wrote the song upon returning as a ballad to both Baba and Barbara.
The song progression is meant to mirror the climax and orgasm during intercourse. There are quite a few songs, especially from this era, that are written in this progression. This one is a masterpiece! (Chefs kiss!)
Katherine...my love for you would fill the entire void of the Andromeda Galaxy... I will never see you again in this lifetime... I should never listen to this song
well, it's a matter of prospective. lol! I think pulling a rabbit out of a hat is a miracle.. i mean really. we can see it. amazing. turning water into wine is a myth, and belief in that is noting but faith and not a miracle.
Everybody loves this song. I love it because women get embarrassed when I tell them to listen closely to the lyrics. That it's about oral sex... it's always fun to watch their expressions when they figure it out.
Preposterous. How could humans, lovestruck or otherwise, exist on the stars? Even a G2V star such as the Sun has a 'surface' temperature (as measured at the outer limits of the photosphere) of 5500 degrees while the corona reaches at least 1,000,000 degrees! Add to that a surface gas pressure of. 868 mb and surface gravity of 274 m/sec sq. Nothing romantic about that, and the Sun is not even an exceptional star!
Always loved this song especially with Marty on vocals. Big hit when I was in high school.
I forgot how incredibly good this song was. What a joy to hear again after so long.
I've heard this song a thousand times but I have never listened to it so intently as today nor have I ever really dissected the lyrics before until today.

@@88wildcat This one too:
"You ripple like a river when I touch you

@@wiz9496 That's not their daughter. She's Kirti's sister...and a grown ass adult, who holds college degrees of her own.

One of my ALL TIME favorite songs from the Rock n Roll era.
Who couldn't stop their head moving side to side hearing this? This song is beautiful. Great reaction; I felt it too.
Beautiful, sensual song. ❤️ Marty’s vocals❗️
This is one of the greatest songs ever written. What a pleasure to see you all enjoying it. Marty Balin was a genius.

THE OPENING MUSIC AND LINES have always and will always get me and move me so beautiful and melancholy...
RIP Marty Balin.
Such a flashback to my 1970's childhood.
A lot of people hear this song even as adults and they just aint ready for it!
I always LOVED this song from when I was a young boy. Had an 6 year older brother and 8 year older sister so I liked songs much older than my age.

Kirti, your reaction to the music is totally open and honest. You have a beautiful smile with sparkling eyes too. Colin from Scotland
I saw them in concert so many years ago. Marty sure could hold a note.

As for the 100’s of my favorite songs, this one is very close to the top!
Thank you guys for reviewing it!💕
This was a very successful "update" of Jefferson Airplane. Marty Balin's vocals really soar on this track. Great reaction.

Grace Slick was the female backing vocal.
And many children were thus conceived...
I loved seeing all three of you smiling and swaying in unison.

Try the tune Count On Me. Marty Balin is on lead vocals on that one too. RIP Marty Balin...
Such a beautiful song... thank you !
So romantic and beautiful!
Go back to Jefferson airplane came frist
Man such a great song . I remember this growing up and loving it. I believe the guy singing has passed away.....Marty something. Grace Slick. The band went thru slot of changes over the years.,name changes,different singers etc This song fabulous.....keep up the good and honest reactions
RIP Marty Balin. Nice job !
So many good songs from Starship. A less well known gem by them is Hyperdrive. A beautiful song.
So beautiful! And so is the song.

If you like "sax on the beach" Harden my heart by Quarterflash.
Oh my. Great song to help flood the memory bank. 😊
Miracles was the name of an Indian guru.
I grew up on this song i love it but when i listen to it i cry maybe because i was married for 20 years our parents did not let us play house we married very young but 20 years later i found him home dead heart attack he was 38 a year later i met my next husband now it is my turn and even though im sick and he has to do a lot for me he still here and when im in the hospital he is there but he knows its just a matter of time but he is still here
Airplane/Starship have such great voices but Marty's is my favourite. A real heart breaker. Shaanti.
Like you guys alot. Keep up the good work.

Yes it was a “less is more” edit:

Great song i love how u enjoy it listen to more great band
The sign you're showing is an Indian dream catcher and I'm a registered Choctaw Indian from Oklahoma
Listen to thier earlier music Jefferson airplane
With your love
After the brake up of the Airplane and Grace Slick left was born the Starship.
I love seeing their reactions.
they were called Jefferson Airplane when they made this song :) They changed thier name to Jefferson Starship later on

They changed from JA to JS in ‘74 and then to just Starship in ~1985
Great song!!!

Yes in a very beautiful way it does indeed.
try his songs "Hearts" "Runaway" & "Count on me"
I like your vast selection of songs. Always interesting to see what's next..
What about, " Quicksiver Messenger" singing "What about me"
I don’t think Enoma has done any reactions to Sade. You guys should check out The Sweetest Taboo, No Ordinary Love, By Your Side, and Smooth Operator.
huh, never knew this was by Jefferson Starship.
Blizzardofwit, miracles, my video to this song
❤️❤️❤️
💞
Do I believe in miracles? Forty seven years before she passed away. Yes I think I do.
Went from Jefferson Airplane in the 60’s,Jefferson Starship in the 70’s,and Starship in the 80’s.They ruled about 30 years.
Enoma, you know that this song is about getting busy?
❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸 🦄🌈🎄💥😍🥰😘
The most controversial part of the song many never catch. 5:11
Marty and Gracie
Great song by them you should check out Sarah buy them I think you might like Sarah check it out and see
Katherine...my love for you would fill the entire void of the Andromeda Galaxy...
I will never see you again in this lifetime...
I should never listen to this song
Not a big fan of JS but no other song sounds like this one
well, it's a matter of prospective. lol! I think pulling a rabbit out of a hat is a miracle.. i mean really. we can see it. amazing. turning water into wine is a myth, and belief in that is noting but faith and not a miracle.
