If you have listened to the dreck for the last 25 or so years you know they have been needed for a very long time. We've been crawling through a desert of numbing mediocrity, robotic banality, mindless hatefulness and autotuned toxicity but have finally arrived at this oasis flowing with milk and honey and are being musically clothed in the finest linens and silks.
Agree that Anderson and Bruno vocals and personality are the greatest duo.. The suits, vocals, steps and humor in this song keeps me feeling good and laughing. Can't get enough. Go Silk Sonic. I just loved your reaction! Looking forward to the album.
I've listened to every Bruno Mars album and most of his videos, I think this is the most fun I've seen him had - of course there's the Uptown Funk/24K Era but he just seems looser or laid-back, if that makes sense.
huge fan of .paak and this song has his fingerprints all over it. only he could write a song about being down bad and make it sound this smooth and funny
I just got an email from Spotify that Silk Sonic is giving their top fans on the platform an exclusive crewneck and I got selected with only 500 in stock! Can't wait to see it
I hope this inspires others to make "real" music. So good. This one is pretty Anderson .Paak inspired lyrically, and Bruno goes full Michael Jackson towards the end!
OH GOD YESS!! RIGHT ON THE HEAD WITH THAT SWEETIE! SO TRUE! MUST. HAVE. THIS. CD. IN. MY. LIFE! IT'S LIKE THEY ARE PAYING A GREAT HOMAGE TO THE MUSIC I LOVE FOREVER AND GREW UP ON! I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How do you know this is .Paak inspired lyrically? Did they say this or are you assuming? I want to hear or read the article. Remember Bruno helped write 'F*ck You, aka Forget You sung by Ceelo. Just curious about information. Thanks.
@@LadybugLuv They are probably just assuming. If you listen to .Paak’s music. Suede and Silicone Valley especially, it makes sense why they would think that. I haven’t heard any dirty songs from Bruno but maybe he has them idk.
@@raymonds7492 You haven't heard a dirty song from Bruno Mars? Dude are you fuckin for real? Go listen "Gorilla" by him right now. You can also listen "Natalie", and you can hear that what song this one inspired from.
@@paranoyakrobot I liked Natalie but gorilla… sorry I don’t really buy it, he should leave that kind of stuff to Ginuwine and the like. Also I never said which one of them the song came from I just said why I think someone would assume it was .Paak, Bruno still has that Disney image (even if he had a sex tape) and .Paak has very few clean songs in fact Smokey Robinson would only do a song with him if it was clean.
Pete and Anderson are paying respect and homage to classic R&B when groups dsnced and dressed in suits! I love it! Anderson sounds strong and sexy. Of Pete always comes through with those beautiful highs! This one is a classic!
@@noahmartin2208 i knew him as a little boy. I lived and performed in Honolulu for several years and befriended his mother. He was called "Pete" or "Peter" by all the locals.
@@noahmartin2208 Yes, I did! His Elvis performances as a child were amazing! I knew he was totally present -- surrendering to the music! He was serious!
This album is destined to go down as one of the all-time greats. I wonder how it would have held up 50 years ago, but also (and I'm almost 50) but just so happy we have a project like this now.
Definite Conchords and Lonely Island influences. Bruno was tremendous in those skits on SNL and brought some of that humor here. Still the song is absurdly good.
Yeah! I had the same thought - more Ween than Conchords/Lonely Island, in that it's a playful send-up more than an outright joke, but all three of the Silk Sonic tracks have been such note-for-note homages to classic 70s stuff (Commodores, Chi-Lites, etc) that they do give off a sort of parody song vibe, especially with how funny some of the lyrics are. I don't think that's a bad thing, either, it gives them a sense of fun you don't always get from soul/r&b.
Great reaction. Can’t wait to see your reaction to the album next week. I agree that they should have something very upbeat in the album- perhaps similar to Perm.
Definitely! There is a very long tradition of “talking over the song” in not only R&B but in Gospel, which is probably where they got it from. Check out classic Dramatics, Bobby Womack, Isley Brothers and the list goes on and on
Can't believe on November 12 we're getting a silk sonic album and Kendrick Lamar will also be making his first live appearance in years in Day n Vegas.
teh thing with silk sonic is that it's so obvious that this isn't a cash grab collab. it's two friends having fun and experimenting and doing what they WANT, perfectly and effortlessly.

Omg 😱 3 is the charm. No worries about nailing it at the Grammys 2022 - I love the Chucky Cheese 🧀 N Gripping me like Hercules lyric 😂🤣😂Love them 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾Motown meets Silk on a throw down 😂❤️❤️❤️
Thankfully Adele and Silk Sonic aren't dropping their albums on the same day. Adele is the week after but Silk Sonic and Taylor Swift are both dropping next week which is gonna be hard to choose. I'll probably go with Silk Sonic because Taylor Swift's is a re-recording of one of her other albums (even though it's her best album) while Silk Sonic's is completely new. Obviously gonna listen to all 3 of their albums though.
You can also react to the rum add they did with James Fauntleroy, it's a cool short track but it is pretty upbeat, you can find it on their instagrams but it is probably reuploaded somewhere on youtube
You always seem to have the first reaction to Silk Sonic which I appreciate, I'll be looking for your reaction to the album next week. i agree with what you say about them. Greatest duo ever. They have the best harmonies and beats. I love the humor they use in each song and video. Cant wait for it.
The part where he goes it gets better with every single listen... Gawd damn....... Yup.. And watching the video at the same time... You can just feel the energy they put into the song...
![Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, Silk Sonic - Leave the Door Open [Official Video] REACTION!!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/S5Iug1hvCUk/mqdefault.jpg)
one of the greatest duos we never knew we needed
Cap, I knew I needed them and then they happened :)
I can’t stop watching Seven Hunnid on UA-cam 😪😪😪

Anderson Paak just being a clown thoughout the whole music video is something I didn't know I needed.
i actually cried when i saw andy lying on the floor at 3:07 cuz i didn’t see it in the first listen 😂
This is my favourite part of the video lmao
When I saw him on the floor I screamed…. and Bruno just steps around him like it’s normal! Pure comedy 😂😂😂😂
That’s my favorite part of the video I die crying every time I watch this
One of the greatest moments in music video history!
Andy lmao
This album is going to be so good. Cannot wait to hear the whole thing
I got nostalgic and ordered the vinyl and cassette version.
@@God_of_Calamity there is no vinyl?
@@AH-mx5su The vinyl was delayed until '22 because of a shortage of vinyl believe it or not. There saying March.
when anderson just resurrects, i die laughing every time. they just having fun
This might be the best song I have ever heard. I might be being dramatic but it just hits that musically orgasm g spot. Can’t wait for the album!
Chill bro 🤣 boat is too far for now. It's damn good fossho
Leave the door open is on another level compared to this
@@justsomejusstsome8994 it’s the only way to describe how this music gets you 😂 there’s gonna be a lot of babies made to this music lol
How u know what a g spot feels like on YOU
@@TheInterfactor Yooo frrr 💀💀💀
huge fan of .paak and this song has his fingerprints all over it. only he could write a song about being down bad and make it sound this smooth and funny
The “barefoot in these streets” line absolutely sent me hahahahahaha
Anderson falling on the floor playing dead and jumping back up …is soul legend
Silk sonic is gonna be the best thing to drop next friday by far
IT DROPS NEXT FRIDAY?
@@makeit0pium599 YES!
@@mutantbananas1 *YES LAWD!
I just got an email from Spotify that Silk Sonic is giving their top fans on the platform an exclusive crewneck and I got selected with only 500 in stock! Can't wait to see it
holy shit congrats
Sooo lucky! I wish I used Spotify now lmaoo
Damn man congrats
I'M SO MAD I SWITCHED PLATFORMS NOW DAMMIT
This comment sounds so much like a bot scam, but there’s no link to click

three Silk Sonic songs, three 10s, this is not even funny anymore
Did you see how smooth Bruno was when he got up off his knees? He never missed a beat! Perfection at its finest! Talented beyond measure!
Pete and Anderson are paying respect and homage to classic R&B when groups dsnced and dressed in suits! I love it! Anderson sounds strong and sexy. Of Pete always comes through with those beautiful highs! This one is a classic!
I know Bruno’s real name is Peter but it feels weird to see someone refer to him as Pete honestly
@@noahmartin2208 i knew him as a little boy. I lived and performed in Honolulu for several years and befriended his mother. He was called "Pete" or "Peter" by all the locals.
@@JaceHarnage oh wow, that’s really cool! Must be really interesting seeing him now, did you or other people see this coming?
@@noahmartin2208 Yes, I did! His Elvis performances as a child were amazing! I knew he was totally present -- surrendering to the music! He was serious!
Anderson .Paak's first name is Brandon!
Sounds to me like Bootsy starts the song off. Love this song!! Love the vibe!
Yeah that's definitely him. Which could explain the feel of the song
This is timeless music
This time . imma leave the door CLOSED !
Cuz I’ll be smoking out the window.
Looking forward to the Abel and posty reaction
Yeh
They should’ve done a darker tone for that collab. That pop sound didn’t sound to mesh well between them
@@hansonlangi4347 it meshed pretty well imo
@@hansonlangi4347 right? It's so bad
I'm not looking into it, that song is soo disappointing
Are we getting a Travis reaction Jon?
This album is destined to go down as one of the all-time greats. I wonder how it would have held up 50 years ago, but also (and I'm almost 50) but just so happy we have a project like this now.
it would be as successful as thriller or even more
@@shashwatmishraalumni4918 Okay that’s a bit much
@@odinaksnes4950 in terms of music quality its much better than thriller
@@shashwatmishraalumni4918 Stfu, this song is good but its not THRILLER and Bruno Mars is not Michael Jackson, the most popular icon on earth
@@jewel_throne2950 ohh i forgot most of indian people know only mj justin bieber eminem taylor swift
"I was wrong, you belong to everyone " love that melody there loll
I already know today’s gonna be a busy day for Jon.
Silk Sonic
The Weeknd x Post Malone
Travis Scott
man that abel and post song was not good 😭 i wanted to like it so much but i couldn’t
One right now gets better with each listen, I got used to it lol
@@sajidulhaque Honestly I love the song and music video.
YO this album is gonna be FIRE🔥🔥 I like the three singles so far
Definite Conchords and Lonely Island influences. Bruno was tremendous in those skits on SNL and brought some of that humor here. Still the song is absurdly good.

Every song is incredible. The album is gonna be a 10/10 no doubt
Bruno and .PAAK are lightning in a bottle. Incredible music.
I seen Anderson open for Bruno Mars in Liverpool in 2016, now look at how it’s worked out. Amazing
Album finna be a 10/10😭, next week can’t come faster!!!!!!
So so good. My only complaint about silk sonic is that we’re only gonna be getting 5 new tracks when the album drops :(
Whered you get this info from? 🥲
@@BluesGetOrigin in recent interviews they announced they would have 9 tracks on the album
@@BluesGetOrigin It's a 9 track album. 4 songs have already been released including the intro. So there's 5 left. I'm still excited though.
My 71 yr old Pop thinks this is as good as the best Motown old n new school... Bruno + Paak = This Bitch Got Me Payin The Rent
Is there any stopping them now? WOW.... another a great song from Silk Sonic. Well Done!!!!!! From Malaysia!!!!
I remember when my cousin put me on Anderson Paak back in 2015 .. I told him paak and bruno would make a fire combo. Damn this is straight fire!!!
THIS IS A WINNER ! I can't pull myself away from this video. "She belongs to everybody(?)" How hurtful is that ?
It does get better with every listen 😩!!! This is my favorite one so far ☝️
Great reaction. Can’t wait to see your reaction to the album next week. I agree that they should have something very upbeat in the album- perhaps similar to Perm.
That ‘talking over the song’ idea is more inspired by old school soul music than Flight of the Concords, but I see what you’re getting at 😊
Definitely! There is a very long tradition of “talking over the song” in not only R&B but in Gospel, which is probably where they got it from. Check out classic Dramatics, Bobby Womack, Isley Brothers and the list goes on and on
Alot of old school soul vibe. I think of Barry white immediately when it comes to this
Can't wait for this damn album😭🔥🔥🔥
Anderson .Paak is so goofy in this video, I love everything about it hahaha
Can't believe on November 12 we're getting a silk sonic album and Kendrick Lamar will also be making his first live appearance in years in Day n Vegas.
LOVE THE DRAMATICS WHEN FALLS ON FLOOR - DEAD! LOVE IT!
teh thing with silk sonic is that it's so obvious that this isn't a cash grab collab. it's two friends having fun and experimenting and doing what they WANT, perfectly and effortlessly.
Just great Duo, GOD has blessed them as a band they are gonna go far cause he got"em"!!!❤️😎🎶🌞
Anderson staying on the floor gets me every time. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is a CLASSIC ! Old school at it's FINEST !
I laughed so hard when paak was still dead😂😂

Brilliant reaction. Definately my favorite of the 3 releases.
An Evening with Silk Sonic is going to be Album of the year. I'm calling it right now
The Harmony and performance- A ++++++
Omg 😱 3 is the charm. No worries about nailing it at the Grammys 2022 - I love the Chucky Cheese 🧀 N Gripping me like Hercules lyric 😂🤣😂Love them 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾Motown meets Silk on a throw down 😂❤️❤️❤️
Mate and the beat after the Hercules....even the dances are addictive😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Love can drive you to do things when your 💙 is Broken. Again they did it again .LOVE THIS SONG. BAD BEAT AS ALWAYS💃💪
Did you miss one of the greatest funkateers ever Bootsy Collins doing the intro?
He’s hosting the entire album
Where is the reaction for escape plan and Mafia by travis scott??
Soul music 🎶. AP and BM, give us more, the world needs it.
Definitely my favorite outta the 3 so far omd🔥
Anderson and Bruno are the Laurel and Hardy of today's music industry 😆😆
Thankfully Adele and Silk Sonic aren't dropping their albums on the same day. Adele is the week after but Silk Sonic and Taylor Swift are both dropping next week which is gonna be hard to choose. I'll probably go with Silk Sonic because Taylor Swift's is a re-recording of one of her other albums (even though it's her best album) while Silk Sonic's is completely new. Obviously gonna listen to all 3 of their albums though.
Worked on “Skate” music video in art department. Was a very chill shoot/day. Great, fun vibes
In this day and age of streaming I will be buying this album would love to get my hands on a vinyl of it
damnnn u know flight of the concords??? extra points to u sir 🇦🇺🇳🇿
This is one of the best songs of the year. Simply incredible. This album is about to be a Classic.
Also, these guys might be bringing smoking back. Finally! I haven't wanted to get back to cigs in a while LOL
The song was so elite my man had to put his shades on! Go headdd! LOL
truly love,love Andersen and Bruno. they are creating real R & B music. pure talent !😍
I agree!!! Great songS on this album!!
Wasn’t SKATE really upbeat????
Jon travis recently released 2 new songs. Will you react to them?
React to summer walker, over it album and still over it
Can confirm -- it gets SOOOO much better with every listen.
You can also react to the rum add they did with James Fauntleroy, it's a cool short track but it is pretty upbeat, you can find it on their instagrams but it is probably reuploaded somewhere on youtube
So glad to hear "The NEW MOTOWN SOUND " !!!!! LOVE IT !!!!!!!
This is lounder and clearer than it was when I just watched it on UA-cam!!! WHAT IS THIS!!?!
Can't wait for my man to react on Abel's featured brand new song of Postyy
My favourite track so far. Absolute killer.
By far my fave of the three🙌🙌
You always seem to have the first reaction to Silk Sonic which I appreciate, I'll be looking for your reaction to the album next week. i agree with what you say about them. Greatest duo ever. They have the best harmonies and beats. I love the humor they use in each song and video. Cant wait for it.
This song is going to be pure therapy for guys.
They’re such a good duo and every song they’ve released together has been fire 🔥
You know it passes the vibe check when everyone’s reaction videos are just them dancing to the song and grinning. Haha!
That Flight of the Concords comment is on point. Songs that are playful or even silly while paying homage and making seriously good songs.
I love this song! It gives me some "Never can say goodbye" - Jackson 5 vibes!
I was waiting for your reaction 🔥
Smokin out the Window is perfect 💕✨
I've been waiting all day for a reaction video to this track 🥰 bring on next week!!! That album is gonna get rinsed dry from me 😁🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Already a classic ! Love this
This album is truly building up to be a classic
This is def their fav track so far... SO FAR
The part where he goes it gets better with every single listen... Gawd damn....... Yup.. And watching the video at the same time... You can just feel the energy they put into the song...
I thought the same than you, instant classic!
Future approves ✅
Anderson is gifted
I’m so pumped for this album. Omg.
Geeez can you imagine how this album will come out?
I wish music was like this and not the garbage we hear today... I guess I'm old skoo
I can't wait to listen every song on the album
Dang this got that 70's funk/soul throwback sound.
Never thought I needed to hear Bruno Mars say “this bitch” but I stand corrected
The best dúo 💖
