Yeah pretty crazy!....just think 3 or so years ago Jay was sitting solo as a rap fan reacting to songs, and now him and Amber have Howard Jones performing live on their channel......Its awesome watching good people succeed in life.
Mr. Howard Jones, if you’re reading this, THANK YOU for your music! Your beautiful songs are part of the soundtrack to my life…. and I’m sure the same holds true for others. Thank you from my heart!❤
Howard is what the Brits call a "true gent". I was lucky to spend 3 months on the road with him as part of the opening act on his "One to One" tour in 1987. The generousity of spirit from all of his band a crew was truly inspiring. He would cut his sound check short if it looked like we might not have enough time to do a sound check. I cannot tell you how incredibly rare that mindset was - - especially in the early 80s
I cannot believe Howard is 69 years old now, he looks great, and sounds even better! Thank you Howard. And thank you Jay & Amber for inviting our Howard onto your show. And he sang to us too! 🤯🥰🎙️👏🎼🎶👌
Howard Jones is hands down one of the greatest singer/musician/lyricist in the world. I've been a huge fan from the beginning . One of my favorite songs is No One Is To Blame. Thank you, Howard and Rob Squad! ❤
I was a member of his fan club back in the 80s which was run by his mom Thelma and I wrote letters back and forth with her for quite a while. She played a part in my quitting drugs and drinking way back then and I remain sober to this day. Howard’s music is phenomenal of course, but the positivity and pure goodness he brings into the world is without measure. So happy to see him here intermingling with the light y’all radiare too! ❤
Wow!! 🥰❤️🥹 When I saw your original reaction video I was so excited to see how taken you were to Howard’s music. I’m a lifelong Howard Jones fan and this new video with him live has made my week!!! Howard is an absolute genius and has such a kind heart. Thanks so much guys 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
YOU GOT HOWARD JONES!!!!!!!! Oh my god! I was so madly in love with him as a kid. I used to dance and sing to his songs on my tape deck for hours. He has always come across as the sweetest, kindest, humblest man with bucketloads of talent. That piano performance was exquisite 🤌🏻🥰❤️
Oh my goodness! What a gorgeous rendition of this song! Thank you so much Howard Jones, for gracing us with your presence and performing this intimate version of this song! Thank you all for such a great interview! ✌💙✌
How cool that you got HoJo on the program! And a private concert! Holy moly. He's definitive 80's with such a unique sound. I wonder if you might also enjoy chatting with Alison Moyet of Yazoo. You've reacted to a couple of her songs. She has quite a big library of songs from her solo career too. What an iconic voice. Thanks for the interview with Howard!
What an absolute treat to see Howard looking so good and sounding so fantastic! I'm 55 and grew up with his music, along with other favorites like Nik Kershaw, Thomas Dolby, Duran Duran and others. "What is Love" was from '83, so I was 14 years old, which is right at the age that music most imprints on us. So needless to say, his music along with others' from that time is deeply ingrained in my soul. And frankly, it's gotten me through tough times over the years. Soooo, Howard, if you're reading the comments, THANK YOU!!!🙏🎹🎵
That was an absolutely stunning performance by Howard. I've always loved that song, but this stripped-down version has given me a whole new perspective and appreciation for the lyrics. I hope he releases this version at some point! 🥰
I think that Howard Jones is incredible. I have been watching you two since the beginning. I am honored. Thank you so much and Thank You Howard! Just AWESOME!
I’d agree. It’s what made me fall in love with his music and message! Told this teenage girl she didn’t have to fit in with societal norms to live a happy life.
That was a truly beautiful performance. He lives and breathes music, and I feel lucky to have watched it. "Never thinking I was a proper singer." Imposter syndrome IS the human condition.
Jay & Amber, glad to see he’s bringing “No One Is To Blame” next !!!! Hopefully he'll bring "Like to Get to Know You Well", "Life In One Day" or "New Song" next !!! You will be seeing a great HoJo show in two weeks!!! You'll finally get to hear the Haircut One Hundred songs I've been requesting “Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)” and “Love Plus One”!!! Also you may hear ABC's "When Smokey Sings", "Be Near Me","All Of My Heart" and likely the two song of their you’ve heard!!
I saw Howard live in 1985, amazing show except when a power cut interrupted and all the computers shut down! Didn’t phase him though, soon restarted and yes we all sang along!
Howard Jones was a major part of the 80s and all its fun, happy times. The Music, The clothes, The Hair, The Look!..Going Out on a Saturday ...Music was so exciting and diverse. Wonderful times. Well done Rob Squad for this real coup. Loved Howard Jones...Nearly forgot..still has the class and talent after all these years. loved it!!
Howard thanks for appearing with our favorite reactors, Howard your music is great 👍 from someone who couldn't get enough of the 80's British evasion! Had my radio 📻 on the entire decade. 😅 Peace✌️ and Love❤️ your 70 year old forever hippie Gary😊 Jay and Amber great reaction 😅 Howard you still got it !
41 years has passed since i first heard this on Radio One here in the UK in The Sunday weekly Top 40 countdown presented by Tommy Vance . Every week i'd have a fresh new cassette tape ready to record my favourite chart hits . Howard Jones has still got it after all this time , " New Song " was my favourite of his but he had loads of bangers .
I was able to see Howard Jones in concert literally days before the COVID shutdown in 2020. Unfortunately due to that, he didn't stick around after the show to sign stuff for fans, which I wish he did. A great show! It was at a small venue where I was in the 5th row from the stage and I didn't pay an arm and a leg for that seat. It was his trio accustic tour. One of the best concerts I went to, in Grand Rapids, Michigan and I hope he comes back through soon and I can get him to sign some of his stuff after the show in the near future.
Taking credit for suggesting Howard Jones to the Reactors playlist. 😉 Humbled by the evolution of that request to seeing him here. 😌 Well done Jordan and Amber, Rob Squad productions! 👏 I’m 80’s giddy and ready to dance before I even hit Play as my entire HoJo playlist starts bouncing in my head. 💃 Joyous Nostalgia. For me, you couldn’t have picked a better day to give me back my youthful heart songs to beat along with for meaningful positive inspiration. Thank you all. HoJo fan for Life.
And thank you @DeAnne1233 for making that request! I saw it and instantly agreed that if they asked, he'd be the man to say yes. I just didn't think it would be so quick in coming.
@@carment4224 I go back about 3 years the first time I requested. Somehow they got their wires crossed and reacted to a completely different Howard Jones before they found who we meant. As whippersnappers do. Endearingly hilarious and one for the Memory Palace. *They didn’t disappoint, nor did Mr Jones in his interview and performance today. Enjoyed every minute with joy.
Ah, you finally found another great British songwriter/performer.... Howard Jones. Huge in the 80's. Almost everywhere you went back then, a Howard Jones track wasn't far away.....
Wow, that was incredible. And Howard seems like a nice person. And his voice!! It's still incredible and he can hit those high notes. How lucky to have a private live performance. His piano skills are so great, too. Having grown up in the 80s I'm pinching myself watching this.
i grew up listening to Mr Howard Jones and a like .that was such a fantastic version that Howard just sung.hats off to him and both of you. for chatting to him
This one on of my favourite songs of the 80s, and one of the greatest ever written. Absolute genius. You guys are amazing. And THANK YOU HOWARD, for your music! From South Africa 😍
Howard is an amazing person, he wrote extremely relatable songs back in the day, and his performance was a huge treat. Thanks for all that all of you do.
One of my absolute favorite musicians ever! Howard Jones is THE reason the only way I've ever made a living my entire career of 30 years was playing the piano. I am a HUGE HOJO fan...this is a GREAT song! I am SO JEALOUS!!! What a treat for me to come home from doing my own piano show and see this waiting...Thank you ALL so much!
Blown away... simply iconic. This man wrote the soundtrack of my life. Thank you Howard Jones, and thank you Rob Squad. I am tearfully grateful for this magical moment.
WHOA!!! viewers!!! Howard Jones performs live in this video and it's STUNNING! DON'T MISS IT!!! You'll be moved. This man obviously has a very deep soul. Truly one of the greatest moments on UA-cam this year. 8:18
Wow this was great you guys. Howard Jones is an awesome talent, had a huge impact in the 80's with so many great hits that still stand today and very generous and giving of his time to be on your channel. "No One Is To Blame" is one of my favorites. "New Song" is also another great song, so uplifting with amazing keyboards in it.
Remember seeing Howard come on MTV in the early 80's with his first album HUMAN'S LIB and the video, "What is Love". From there I was a fan. He brought a unique style and incredible sound to music that resonated with so many. Great lyrics and music. Nice reaction with the brilliant Howard Jones. An icon! Love how genuine and down to Earth Howard is. WOW! What a great live performance. So lucky to experience that from one of the greats. The talent of someone who can play live and sound so incredible is truly inspiring. Beautiful rendition of that song.
Awesome moment! The 80s was magical with so many genres of music all performing at their peak. Thexmusic of Howard Jones brings so many wonderful memories.
WOW! An interview! I just want to say, as a teen I was a hard rockin metal head, but enjoyed all the 80's mainstream pop and rock. When I first got my car stereo hooked up in 1988, I turned on the radio and it was Howard Jones. The stereo and Howard himself sound SOOOO GOOD! I've been a Howard fan ever since. Lots of great songs from Howard Jones.
Beautiful song, great artist and so cool, he joined you for this. ❤ As a teen back in the 80s I had quite a crush on him and I still love his music today. Alas, the 80s were fantastic!
Wow! I have always loved Howard Jones' music, and am looking forward to more HoJo reactions this week. "No One is to Blame," "Everlasting Love," "Tears to Tell," "Someone You Need," so many more! And I once saw an episode of a series called "The Song That Saved My Live" about Howard Jones - truly inspirational for me.
This man is a legend of music!! His voice is still pristine and gorgeous. Thank you Howard for the beautiful music and the gift of your voice. This was a privilege 😊😊
Amber and Jay - thank you for all of the videos you're creating with such special guests. You two are the best thing on UA-cam. And, thank you Mr. Howard Jones for being a part of the soundtrack of my life. I love your music.
What a treat! Howard is awesome, we're very proud of him in England, he's talented and a gentleman. A class act all round. I've always liked singing along to his songs - he made a great contribution to the soundtrack of the 80s - but I never could reach the really high notes he hits, much to my frustration! You guys will love New Song, it's right up your alley, trust me. No One Is To Blame and Like To Get To Know You Well are also terrific.
I've followed Howard since his first tour in 1984/85 - he was my first gig at the Glasgow (Scotland) Apollo in 1985 and I've seen him many times in concert ever since, the last being in 2023.
As a teenager in the eighties I just wanna say THANX Howard. This live performance, Fantastic. Not only things can get better, your vocals too. I live in Spain but if I were in the States I would definitely go to Oklahoma to attend the show. Amazing!
Cool!!! You guys got the great singer song writer H. Jones I was fortunately lucky to see him a few years back at a concert here in the park in Woodland Hills,CA. He did a full show and it's so great to hear him live nobody sold more than him in the 80's
I have been a huge fangirl of Howards since the early 80s and have been lucky to see him live several times. Last time was last year and he still delivers! I love you Howard! This performance was definitely amazing!
Wow y'all, thank you for this amazing treat. The Dream Into Action tour was the first concert I went to with my own money, and Howard's music beats through my heart to this day. Human's Lib changed how I saw life.
One of my favorite concert DVD’s is Howard’s 20th anniversary show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire in 2005(?). In the “retro” segment of the show he plays six of his earliest songs as a one-man band on a lot of the old analog synths, just like the old days. He enters sequences on an old SCI Pro-One between songs. He re-tunes one of his temperamental Moog Rogues in the middle of songs. He sets up drum patterns on his Roland 808 between songs. He totally masters that “iffy” technology live in front of a full house. I have great respect for anyone that can do that without melting into a puddle on stage. Of course, it must be nice to come off tour to a Steinway grand in your living room afterwards 😉.
Omg you got THE ACTUAL HOWARD JONES! Epic!
Feels like we all just got a Back Stage Pass. 🫠
One of my fav 80s artists !!!
Yeah pretty crazy!....just think 3 or so years ago Jay was sitting solo as a rap fan reacting to songs, and now him and Amber have Howard Jones performing live on their channel......Its awesome watching good people succeed in life.
Yes he is amazing!
My exact reaction!
Mr. Howard Jones, if you’re reading this, THANK YOU for your music! Your beautiful songs are part of the soundtrack to my life…. and I’m sure the same holds true for others.
Thank you from my heart!❤
What an honor to have Howard Jones on your show. He is an icon for my generation. Thank you, sir, for sharing your talent.

One to One is my favorite Howard Jones album. Love his song Give Me Strength.
Which band were in? I caught a bit of that tour and am wondering if I saw you?
I cannot believe Howard is 69 years old now, he looks great, and sounds even better! Thank you Howard. And thank you Jay & Amber for inviting our Howard onto your show. And he sang to us too! 🤯🥰🎙️👏🎼🎶👌
This is why I've loved Howard for over 30 years
Thank you very much friends for this great surprise!! 👏👏👏👏😮
Howard Jones is hands down one of the greatest singer/musician/lyricist in the world. I've been a huge fan from the beginning . One of my favorite songs is No One Is To Blame. Thank you, Howard and Rob Squad! ❤
That might be my favorite as well, but its always a tearjerker for me. I really like the more upbeat "life in one day" though
My favorite!
Watched Howard’s tour kickoff in Redmond last night - what a musical legend. Nick Heyward/HC100 and ABC were awesome tour buddies too!
HJ still sounds good after 40 years, rock on HJ. I want to get into time machine back to 1985 right now and stay there.
I was a member of his fan club back in the 80s which was run by his mom Thelma and I wrote letters back and forth with her for quite a while. She played a part in my quitting drugs and drinking way back then and I remain sober to this day. Howard’s music is phenomenal of course, but the positivity and pure goodness he brings into the world is without measure. So happy to see him here intermingling with the light y’all radiare too! ❤
I can't imagine my life without the contribution of UK artists.

What a great opportunity to be in contact with the great Howard Jones!!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of my all time favorite artists!
What an honor, great job guys!!!
Love Howard. His song 'No one is to blame' is one of the best songs of the 80s.

Indeed. Phil Collins on backing vocals I believe?
Yes and drums

Rob Squad did that one a year ago. It was the first one they did of Howard. Great reaction, check it out
Me too,amazing song!🎶♥️
Wow. I'm starstruck and you two were the ones who got to meet him. I'm jealous.

Ditto!!! I was 14 when this song came out, it's in my soul.
I think that Howard Jones is incredible. I have been watching you two since the beginning. I am honored. Thank you so much and Thank You Howard! Just AWESOME!
That was a fabulous interview. I love Howard Jones!!
“New Song” will always be my favorite Howard Jones song.
Me too!
I’d agree. It’s what made me fall in love with his music and message! Told this teenage girl she didn’t have to fit in with societal norms to live a happy life.
I love that song too, but then again I love SO MANY of his songs that it is hard to choose.
@@amyk9175Yes!

I was OBSESSED with Howard Jones in middle school and high school in the 80’s. He’s still dope as hell🤩
That was incredible! This man still sounds incredible at 69 yo.
Such a humble person . Glad that I got to see him perform this year.
That was a truly beautiful performance. He lives and breathes music, and I feel lucky to have watched it. "Never thinking I was a proper singer." Imposter syndrome IS the human condition.
Thanks so much for this Folks. This guy was a total guilty pleasure for a little metalhead in the 80s.

Squeeeeeeee! I’ve seen Howard Jones several times. No one is to blame. You must see. Great lyrics.
Wowsers!! That live version of What Is Love is absolutely amazing! I have been a fan of Howard since he came on the scene.

My favorite song of Howard Jones is 'HIDE & SEEK'. A real vibe - so relaxing and exciting at the same time, this special genesis story.
The Live Aid version of Hide and Seek with the crowd singing along is worth a watch, it’s on UA-cam somewhere
Cool!!! You guys got the great singer song writer H. Jones I was fortunately lucky to see him a few years back at a concert here in the park in Woodland Hills,CA. He did a full show and it's so great to hear him live nobody sold more than him in the 80's
I have been a huge fangirl of Howards since the early 80s and have been lucky to see him live several times. Last time was last year and he still delivers! I love you Howard! This performance was definitely amazing!
Wow brings back childhood memories. The 80s was the best decade ever. Nothing like it
Wow y'all, thank you for this amazing treat. The Dream Into Action tour was the first concert I went to with my own money, and Howard's music beats through my heart to this day. Human's Lib changed how I saw life.
One of my favorite concert DVD’s is Howard’s 20th anniversary show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire in 2005(?). In the “retro” segment of the show he plays six of his earliest songs as a one-man band on a lot of the old analog synths, just like the old days. He enters sequences on an old SCI Pro-One between songs. He re-tunes one of his temperamental Moog Rogues in the middle of songs. He sets up drum patterns on his Roland 808 between songs. He totally masters that “iffy” technology live in front of a full house. I have great respect for anyone that can do that without melting into a puddle on stage. Of course, it must be nice to come off tour to a Steinway grand in your living room afterwards 😉.
Howard jones! What a score!
