    Years ago, i did a personal playlist called “good vibes”. Differents songs of differents artists to feel metter. Now, i am discovering that the most part of them were produced by this man! I think he know how to create joy with his songs. An amazing special talent, thank you!

      Me too!! One of my faves being Keating with Life is a Rollercoaster, Mel C with On the Horizon, Santanas Game of Love, Texas Inner Smile, and many others, including of course You get what you give. I don't like some of the more dopey stuff Gregg has recorded himself, but there's still enough genius to make him one of the greatest.
      Pity that New Radicals stopped, but having his songs sung by various top artists is just as fine to me.

    I remember loving "Get What You Give" as a 9yr old, and the music video was so fun aswell.
    I always liked Gregg Alexander's sound. He's like a mix of Moby, R.E.M and Macy Gray sonically. Unique.
    His re-make for Justin Guarini is tight too!

  • @strictlynorton

    Gregg has a unique ability to fuse melody with lyric to create euphoric pop music. He's a great songwriter. I easily put him in same masterclass as Hal David, Holland and Dozier and Goffin and King. The more you study these songs the more you realise he really is a pop savant.

    One of the greatest pop songs ever. I prefer Sharleen’s awesome vocals but Gregg wrote it and came up with all the melodies

    It's one of my all time favorite songs. Sharleen Spiteri from Texas improved upon the song with new lyrics, a fantastic bridge and vocals and more instruments like that killer guitar solo. But this is great. I would've loved it in a New Radicals album.

    • @Truckergunners
      @Truckergunners 4 роки тому +7

      I sure hope Texas thanked gregg for this, masterpiece, would of loved if the new radicals released this, but I have to admit I think this song sounds better sung by a woman.

      These songs were created around the same time of "Maybe You've Been Brainwashed, Too" so the late '90s/early '00s. That's why they sound so much like his previous works. 😁

      I don't what synthswas used but i recognize the sound of the piano which is from a Yamaha Clavinova or PSR keyboard. The drums could be off a Korg Triton as it could make RnB style sounds and other sounds may have been used but with effects added.
