It's just so hard to swallow that people don't know Bob Seger? It actually hurts my feelings 😢 cuz he was and still is one of the best musicians I've heard!!! He performed for decades! "AGAINST THE WIND" is one of my favorite songs ever!!!!!!❤
Bob Seger is a national treasure . . . . there are many, many, many more songs from him to listen to. Night Moves, Main Street, Old Time Rock and Roll, the list goes on and on . . .
Nine tonight, her strut, Hollywood nights, still the same, ramblin gamblin man, we've got tonight, ROLL ME AWAY, I am a mega fan and I can't wait to see move reactions to pretty much any of his music.
Seger was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2012. From the 1960s to the 1990s, he had 31 songs on the 100 Top Hits chart. He captured the youthful pursuit of meaning on the road. Enjoy
The fact that this was a LIVE performance, and yet sounds more like it was a studio recording, just goes to prove how talented and amazing Bob Seger was as a singer, and a performer. Not to mention how good the Silver Bullet Band were when they were doing a show.
This man is an institution. His music has lasted decades and his live shows were always incredible. It always seemed like every show you saw was the first one and I saw several!!
He is talking about being on the road as a musician. Bob Seger spent decades on the road performing. This is speaking from his soul. I was fortunate enough to see him many times including Detroit shows which were dang hard to get tickets for. In 2019 he did his last tour and I saw him in Shreveport Louisiana. Whole stadium goes pitch black and that sax riff at the beginning rings out over the crowd in the dark. CHILLS
I was at that concert in Shreveport! The only time I'd been fortunate enough to see him live (he's one of my favorite artists). When he sang "Roll Me Away" I just sat there crying in total awe that I was hearing my favorite song by him **live**!!
Love that you finally heard something from Bob. He's a legend with a long list if hits!! Keep going, you will be pleasantly surprised!!🙃"NIGHT MOVES" and "HER STRUT"... those 2 mega hits will show you another side of the iconic Bob Seger!! Peace and light...✌💞
My brain went to that pair of songs as soon as she made that lil question/statement about ""FIRST PERSON"" living the life of a star on the road. JB's list of what entertainment was available on the buss was awesome!!
Brit, you are of a different generation. Bob Seger is an institution an this is his greatest ballad. I had a brother who died in 2007 who said this was his best song ever. I can see why. Look him up on the internet and check his songs. You are in for a treat.
Somewhere on the album "Live Bullet" there is a 15 year old fan standing 3 rows back from the stage cheering his lungs out. Me, on September 5th, 1975 Cobo Hall in Detroit. Yes, they said that because of his long hair. Viet Nam hadn't been over long and "hippies" weren't looked upon favorably.
I appreciate Britt a lot. This is someone who is not from our generation who is digging into songs for the very first time. Let's give her some room! She controls the pause and comment in the songs, and at times has super insightful takes on what a song is all about.
Same here when I come across her in the suggested, and it's of interest to me. I lover her in the moment as she's listening reactions. I'm mid sixties and appreciate that she's finding the music we listened to when it was new or were already classics when we first heard them.
Absolutely! I grew up with my parents blaring classic rock like this, and folks today are giving me perspective on how amazing those artists were and yet it was just "normal" to me. The Eagles, Foreigner, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bob Seger, Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty ... too many to mention but many are becoming lost gold, IMO. Lots of awesome country disappearing as well. Bob Seger though... holy smokes, many many crazy good songs! That band is a showing of true talent.
This song was and still is an amazing take on what is like being a touring musician. When it came out it told a story that everyone could relate to thinking about that lifestyle. An epic tale and incredible song. Never get tired of that song and its deep meaning, thank you Bob Seger.
If you could’ve witnessed Bob Seger and the silver bullet band live, you would think even today the best concert you ever been to live bullet is a classic listen to the entire album and see what you missed❤❤
Live Bullet is hands down one of the best albums ever recorded. Start to finish...fabulous. I wore out two 8 tracks of it, then went to cassette and had the album. It just never got old...still today one of my favorites.
“Is that a woman or a man? You always seem outnumbered and you don’t dare make a stand…” Seger had very long hair back in the 70s… This song was one of his Masterpieces…
Hi Britt, Being back in the "70's" and guys with long hair... would sometimes fool you into thinking is that a girl or a guy. Pretty common phrase at the time. Bob Seger a Detroit rocker had so many hits. He is still rocking the house to this day. Thanks for the reaction video
Born in 63 growing up in the 70'S and 80'S as a teenager Bob Seger was one of the top performers on the charts . I got to grow up in a time music told a story and unmatched in today's music industry
I love watching people react to people to songs i remember growing up i was born in 72 but i remember here this on the radio as a kid don't want to hurt anyone's feelings but music in the 70s and 80s were the best love you Britt
The song is a tribute to "roadies" who do the really hard work on concert tours and don't get much credit for the tough work they do ! Here's to the roadies that make the concerts great !
I lived in Detroit (Ann Arbor actually) for 10 years and got to see Bob Seger in concert around 1982 or 83. Start to finish great songs. In fact, I can't think of any of his songs that weren't great. He's the ultimate singer/songwriter, genuine, authentic, and lacking the celebrity BS that surrounds most rock singers today. His songs tell a story and it's always an interesting one. When I moved to LA I was disappointed that they didn't play his songs nearly as much as I was used to hearing in Detroit. But thanks to UA-cam you can find most of them and a new generation can enjoy them. So many great songs, but try listening to Roll Me Away or Hollywood Nights to get an idea of his range as a song writer.
The story is self evident. It will unfold as the song goes along. No need to interpret the lyrics so early in the song. Thank you for playing the wonderful Bob Seger. He is an awesome storyteller in his songs.
Each person can see some of their life in this song. I see so much of my life when I was in the Navy and people would sometimes judge us thinking we were just women trying to be men. Even the "amplifiers ringing in your head - " I was in ship and shore communications and spent a lot of mornings trying to get to sleep after a long night shift (including a different sort of amplifier) but I can't get the buzz and clatter of a complex work center out of my head.
Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band , the albums of my youth . Every time l hear these Segar tunes , man , it takes me back . His song Mainstreet was me circa 1980 . Those times are long gone along with so many people that made it so memorable.for me . Living on the streets with all the other lost souls , all of us just searching for a place to find love . Up on Main Street.
A big quick thumbs up!!! One of my top 20!!! It's sad but strange how I found about this song and artist. There had been a big complex housing fire. I had walk passed the day after and there was this CD laid out among other things. I said why not. It was meant to be. Thank for this one my dear ❤.
I see you smile at every point where the beat comes in with a slow "chugga chugga" vib and I remember that you said you felt a western vib early in your video. I feel those sections of the song as a train chugging along, mainly because of the line where he sings "the engine's one note song", as in, the horn a train engine will sound as it approaches a crossroad, early in the song, but I could easily experience that as a horse galloping across the plains, as well. (the locomotive was called the "iron horse" at one time for some reason!)
a GOAT!!!!!! best song ever about life on the road!!!! I have loved this song since it came out!! I am 74 & his voice still gives me chills - he has one of the sexiest / sensual voice out there next to Kenny Rogers!!!
Bob started out in the '60s with "Ramblin Gamblin Man." You should listen to it to hear what he sounded like before he became jaded by years and years of performing.
STILL THE SAME- This reminds me of a "friend" who wasn't a real friend. NIGHT MOVES- Classic. MAIN STREET. WE GOT TONIGHT, BLAME IT ON THE MOON. Bob Seeger is a story teller.
Your review of this song was great! This was the music of my youth and I don't expect you to have the same connection to it that a teenager from that time would have, but your analysis is very insightful. Sonically, Bob Segar's voice and the band's performance was quite soulful and hypnotic. But more importantly, his ability to portray what it was like to live a life on the road as a "celebrity/character" was a revelation to myself and many of my friends, at the time. This song was not important because it provided deep thought provoking insights, but rather, that it shoved the reality and loneliness of being a rock star in all of our faces.
Saw him five times he would get the crowd going the slow them down all five the sax play aways run into the audience the last time I saw him right at the end of our row.
"Wanted Dead or Alive" - Bon Jovi's take on the same thing. Not sure if she is even old enough for this, but she might know "Like a Rock" from the chevy commercials. Of course, Seger has a a bunch of GREAT songs.
When I first heard this song as a child, I had the same thought that it was a truck driver, but I slowly released more as I listen to it, it was more about his personal experiences as a rock star & what the constant state of touring can do to you. Like the line "the same old cliches, is it a woman or a man" was something him and his band members experienced in a small-town diner back when they had long hair and would get remarks about it. Course, back then in the time he was actively touring and when this song came out, long hair was less acceptable on men.
I'm also from Detroit, so I remember when he was still playing small local bars and venues. In the '60s, if you had long hair (as a man) people would often make snide remarks (such as is that a woman or a man) knowing full well he was a man. Needless to say, as his notoriety and success grew, those comments stopped. He's always been one of my favorites. The best times for me, were at the beginning when he played the local bar circuit. As always, you did a phenomenal job at catching the nuances of the artist and the times. Thanks again for your review and for taking me back to my teens and twenties. (Yes, a looooooooong time ago. Bobby is only a few years older than me)
Bob Seger is from Detroit. He has had a 50 year career which is now over as he has retired. Peter Frampton sold out Cobo Hall arena 7 nights running Bob Seger sold it out 8 nights and it could have been 14 days A rabbit hole so deep you may never get through it.
One of the best. When he was coming up he spent a lot time across the border from Detroit in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Like many of the Motown Stars and musicians all over he got a lot of airplay on CKLW in Windsor as well as advice ftom a lady by the name of Rosalie Tremblay know as the girl with the golden ear. He has a song, Rosalie written about her that was later covered by Thin Lizzy. My father worked at CKLW back then, I was just a little kid at the time. Other songs to check out from Bob Seger (pronounced Seeger) would be The Famous Final Scene, Sunburst is one no one reacts to as well as Rosalie among many, many others. Also check out some of his early stuff such as Heavy Music (Bob Seger & The Last Herd) , 2+2, Ramblin', Gamblin' Man and Beautiful Loser.
Yes, a lot of rock stars in the 70's and 80's had long hair. And strung out from the road means just touring life. Doing one night stands playing in a different city all the time, etc... It has to wear on you.
It's just so hard to swallow that people don't know Bob Seger? It actually hurts my feelings 😢 cuz he was and still is one of the best musicians I've heard!!! He performed for decades! "AGAINST THE WIND" is one of my favorite songs ever!!!!!!❤
I agree!
Yep. We're old...lol. It does pain me that the younger kids don't know so much amazing music from back then, but these reaction videos are helping
I think in many black community the radio stations didn’t really play the song, so how would they know?
Lot of people don't know he had a handshake deal with the guys in muscle shoals on his first 7 albums that he still honored today
How can you bea
Bob Seger is a national treasure . . . . there are many, many, many more songs from him to listen to. Night Moves, Main Street, Old Time Rock and Roll, the list goes on and on . . .
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
and on and on and on....
And, Like a Rock.
Nine tonight, her strut, Hollywood nights, still the same, ramblin gamblin man, we've got tonight, ROLL ME AWAY, I am a mega fan and I can't wait to see move reactions to pretty much any of his music.
I second this..Definitely start with Night Moves
I've been listening to Bob Seger for 50 years.
Me too
Seger was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2012. From the 1960s to the 1990s, he had 31 songs on the 100 Top Hits chart. He captured the youthful pursuit of meaning on the road. Enjoy

This is from the live bullet album.
This man is an institution. His music has lasted decades and his live shows were always incredible. It always seemed like every show you saw was the first one and I saw several!!
Why dont you listen to the song Jesus listen your way off he's on a Harley riding
He's from Detroit, and that's where he gets that soulful sound
He’s from Ann Arbor about 40 miles west of Detroit, but yeah, same area of southeast Michigan. We love him around here. And many others as well.
Live Bullet was one of the best live recordings of the 70's
Totally agree!!!!
He is talking about being on the road as a musician. Bob Seger spent decades on the road performing. This is speaking from his soul.
I was fortunate enough to see him many times including Detroit shows which were dang hard to get tickets for. In 2019 he did his last tour and I saw him in Shreveport Louisiana. Whole stadium goes pitch black and that sax riff at the beginning rings out over the crowd in the dark. CHILLS
I saw him in the 70's in Germany, and again in Georgia in the 80's.
I saw him several times in the 70's and his live shows were awesome.
He would rock you hard and grab your heart leaving you wanting more.
thank you
I was at that concert in Shreveport! The only time I'd been fortunate enough to see him live (he's one of my favorite artists). When he sang "Roll Me Away" I just sat there crying in total awe that I was hearing my favorite song by him **live**!!
@@amandamckee9178 It was an unbelievable show! So sad that the sax player that had been with him since the song was first recorded has since passed.
Bob is his own category
If you heard a chevy commercial in the90's, you now Bob Seger. LIKE A ROCK
Love that you finally heard something from Bob. He's a legend with a long list if hits!! Keep going, you will be pleasantly surprised!!🙃"NIGHT MOVES" and "HER STRUT"... those 2 mega hits will show you another side of the iconic Bob Seger!! Peace and light...✌💞
SEGER also plays guitar, piano and key board !
Don't forget "We've Got Tonight"
Bob Seger....many great songs..."roll me away". Night moves, Like a rock etc etc. Fabulous.
Jackson Brown “Load out and stay”. All about his love of being on stage and the hard work his roadies put in to set it up and tear it down.
Leader of the Band - Fogelberg
My brain went to that pair of songs as soon as she made that lil question/statement about ""FIRST PERSON"" living the life of a star on the road. JB's list of what entertainment was available on the buss was awesome!!
The whole album Running on Empty is about this theme.
Wanted dead or alive - Bon Jovi
Wonderful artist & song. ❤
One of the greatest songs ever written by one of the greatest performers of all time.
It may help if you listen to the song first, then ask questions. Only then, you may have not as many questions. Seger is truly amazing.
Brit, you are of a different generation. Bob Seger is an institution an this is his greatest ballad. I had a brother who died in 2007 who said this was his best song ever. I can see why. Look him up on the internet and check his songs. You are in for a treat.
Bob Seger Rock and Roll King!!! Let him sing
Somewhere on the album "Live Bullet" there is a 15 year old fan standing 3 rows back from the stage cheering his lungs out. Me, on September 5th, 1975 Cobo Hall in Detroit.

How can you listen to a song and interrupt it so often. I kills the flow of the song and this is one of those songs.
Bob was a Legend, he done about everything he ever set out to do, very fine guy.
This song was and still is an amazing take on what is like being a touring musician. When it came out it told a story that everyone could relate to thinking about that lifestyle. An epic tale and incredible song. Never get tired of that song and its deep meaning, thank you Bob Seger.
Absolutely on of my favorite songs ever. A masterpiece about touring, isolation, and the pressure of being on the road as a performer.
Please let him sing a full verse before you stop to try and figure out what he’s talking about 😊
It’s called a reaction video? 😂❤
@@DaRkHoRsE-_-it’s better when they don’t react to every line
@@1960BobD gotcha
So true!
Girl, listen to Bob
If you could’ve witnessed Bob Seger and the silver bullet band live, you would think even today the best concert you ever been to live bullet is a classic listen to the entire album and see what you missed❤❤
Live Bullet is hands down one of the best albums ever recorded. Start to finish...fabulous. I wore out two 8 tracks of it, then went to cassette and had the album. It just never got old...still today one of my favorites.
Bob Sever is a great singer songwriter and story teller. Many great songs. You may have heard his song Old time rock and roll.
Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band…one of the deepest rabbit holes! Great music that I came of age to. 💗
“Is that a woman or a man?
You always seem outnumbered and you don’t dare make a stand…”
Seger had very long hair back in the 70s…
This song was one of his Masterpieces…

Born in 63 growing up in the 70'S and 80'S as a teenager Bob Seger was one of the top performers on the charts . I got to grow up in a time music told a story and unmatched in today's music industry
Journey: "Faithfully" is also about performers on the road, Jackson Brown: "The Load Out/Stay"
“Strung out from the road” is referencing just how drained and “strung out” you can feel after being on the road so long.
I love watching people react to people to songs i remember growing up i was born in 72 but i remember here this on the radio as a kid don't want to hurt anyone's feelings but music in the 70s and 80s were the best love you Britt
The song is a tribute to "roadies" who do the really hard work on concert tours and don't get much credit for the tough work they do !
Here's to the roadies that make the concerts great !
He says here I am, up on the stage. Its about him
Your thinking of the Jackson Browne song The Load Out
Bod Seger is a Legend. Everything he does turns to gold. LOTS of Hits!
The song writing is great. Seger’s timbre and range are great

I haven't heard this song in many years and forgot how pasionste he was. Thanks for the gift of memory and enjoyment. :d

I wasn't a musician, but but I worked in an industry that traveled the country, and I thought of this as an anthem of my life.
Bob Seger and his music remains amazing!
Bob S. Is my an neighbors favorite music. We go into middle of 50 acres an turn up the sound.
One of my favorite songs.
Really enjoyed your reaction, Britt! Perceptive and honest... Oh, and this is one of my favorite songs :)
Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band , the albums of my youth . Every time l hear these Segar tunes , man , it takes me back . His song Mainstreet was me circa 1980 . Those times are long gone along with so many people that made it so memorable.for me . Living on the streets with all the other lost souls , all of us just searching for a place to find love . Up on Main Street.
I first heard this in the early 80s and loved it. Still do. It has stood the test of time. ❤
It’s a true meaning of a man’s heartbeat, deep down!!
Yes girl. Love your show!!! Because he has long hair is where that line comes from.
A big quick thumbs up!!! One of my top 20!!! It's sad but strange how I found about this song and artist. There had been a big complex housing fire. I had walk passed the day after and there was this CD laid out among other things. I said why not. It was meant to be. Thank for this one my dear ❤.
When this was recorded in 1975, Seger did have long hair. Check out the album art from Live Bullet.
Lol, he and his band are going from city to city on tour, and groupies were in abundance. This is a great song.
Been listening to Bob seiger since I was a little kid he's freaking awesome
Bob Seger active from 1961 to 2019.
Saying that one has never heard of him is like saying one has never seen the sun rise
The term for the Saxophone as it was used in this song and in that era was sometimes called " The Premarital Sax " !
Growing up in Michigan, we knew Bob Seger. Kathmandu is a must.
Bob seater and the silver bullet band have been around since the 70’s. Very popular band. Great music!
Bob is a great artist years of good rock n roll
Boom! This song cuts right into your heart.
I really liked your first reaction to this great song. We learn and we grow. Keep it up.
Love her reactions...one of the best out there.
Saw him in Memphis in 1977. My very first concert.
I love your analytics.
You and Lex from Brad and Lex are masterclass!
I love TRAVELIN’ MAN!! Bob is the best. I was born in the 60s he’s just part of my life.
Thanx Britt for your study on this 🙏❤️
I see you smile at every point where the beat comes in with a slow "chugga chugga" vib and I remember that you said you felt a western vib early in your video. I feel those sections of the song as a train chugging along, mainly because of the line where he sings "the engine's one note song", as in, the horn a train engine will sound as it approaches a crossroad, early in the song, but I could easily experience that as a horse galloping across the plains, as well. (the locomotive was called the "iron horse" at one time for some reason!)
a GOAT!!!!!! best song ever about life on the road!!!! I have loved this song since it came out!! I am 74 & his voice still gives me chills - he has one of the sexiest / sensual voice out there next to Kenny Rogers!!!
Amazing songs one of my all time favorites
I've seen him in concert a few times! Great musician!
Bob pulled on the heartstrings with this song.
The echos of the amplifiers ringing in your head. It literally rings and it's quite loud. Makes it tough to fall asleep.
I saw him back in the early seventies live at Pine Knob in Michigan awesome singer should check out the rest of his songs I'm sure you will enjoy
3 concerts 80 something, He has always been my favorite
Saw a lot of concerts in SoCal in the 80’s. Seger’s concert at the Forum second to none!
Bob started out in the '60s with "Ramblin Gamblin Man." You should listen to it to hear what he sounded like before he became jaded by years and years of performing.
The song is about him and the band on their Tour Bus
Strung out from the road means he has been on the road for months.
STILL THE SAME- This reminds me of a "friend" who wasn't a real friend.
NIGHT MOVES- Classic.
MAIN STREET.
WE GOT TONIGHT,
BLAME IT ON THE MOON.
Bob Seeger is a story teller.
Lot of people have probably already said this song but one more time would hurt. “Leader of the band”
Talking all about the not-so- glamorous life of a musician! Amazing 🎶 song, he has many amazing songs!
Best concert I ever saw.
Your review of this song was great! This was the music of my youth and I don't expect you to have the same connection to it that a teenager from that time would have, but your analysis is very insightful. Sonically, Bob Segar's voice and the band's performance was quite soulful and hypnotic.

This song was not important because it provided deep thought provoking insights, but rather, that it shoved the reality and loneliness of being a rock star in all of our faces.
Strung out from the road. I never thought about it being a play on words, I know the feeling after driving for days on end, but good point.
Saw him five times he would get the crowd going the slow them down all five the sax play aways run into the audience the last time I saw him right at the end of our row.
It's about a band being on the road between shows
Jackson Browne "Load Out" is another artist on tour anthem.
"Wanted Dead or Alive" - Bon Jovi's take on the same thing. Not sure if she is even old enough for this, but she might know "Like a Rock" from the chevy commercials. Of course, Seger has a a bunch of GREAT songs.
Love this song 🎵… true classic.. ❤️
The Metallica version of this song is so good too ♥️ highly recommend 🫠
When I first heard this song as a child, I had the same thought that it was a truck driver, but I slowly released more as I listen to it, it was more about his personal experiences as a rock star & what the constant state of touring can do to you.

Course, back then in the time he was actively touring and when this song came out, long hair was less acceptable on men.
Blue's rock. It is old time rock and roll, and yes, that is the name of another of his songs.
I'm also from Detroit, so I remember when he was still playing small local bars and venues. In the '60s, if you had long hair (as a man) people would often make snide remarks (such as is that a woman or a man) knowing full well he was a man.

Bob Seger is from Detroit. He has had a 50 year career which is now over as he has retired. Peter Frampton sold out Cobo Hall arena 7 nights running Bob Seger sold it out 8 nights and it could have been 14 days A rabbit hole so deep you may never get through it.
Always loved Bob Seger!! All his music is great! Can't say that of many singers! ❤
Old time rock and roll, and, like a rock..... you never heard these songs? Hell, like a rock is sung in a Chevy commercial!
One of the best. When he was coming up he spent a lot time across the border from Detroit in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Like many of the Motown Stars and musicians all over he got a lot of airplay on CKLW in Windsor as well as advice ftom a lady by the name of Rosalie Tremblay know as the girl with the golden ear. He has a song, Rosalie written about her that was later covered by Thin Lizzy. My father worked at CKLW back then, I was just a little kid at the time.
Other songs to check out from Bob Seger (pronounced Seeger) would be The Famous Final Scene, Sunburst is one no one reacts to as well as Rosalie among many, many others.
Also check out some of his early stuff such as Heavy Music (Bob Seger & The Last Herd) , 2+2, Ramblin', Gamblin' Man and Beautiful Loser.
He's talking about being on tour. And yes that is smoke coming out while he sings.
What a great performer.. Watch LIKE A ROCK!
That song was used in Chevrolet commercials.
Yes, a lot of rock stars in the 70's and 80's had long hair. And strung out from the road means just touring life. Doing one night stands playing in a different city all the time, etc... It has to wear on you.
One of the all time best hell yeah❤

You bave just discovered Bob Seger! Have fun. 😊
Hes singing about being on tour in a bus, but as truck driver i can tell you that it easily relates to trucking.
