I don't want to sound like a punk. But, when I see people today in 2024 getting their spirit lifted hearing music from my generation it gets me very emotional. It means the music from my youth survived time and decades to come to touch people years later. There is no better feeling than watching this type of GENUINE reaction to my music from back in the day. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
1976 here, I watch ALOT of Reactions to Alot of Songs that i Love, mostly 70’s & 80’s songs and man, i Often Get Very Emotional watching them, Especially Lyrically DEEP and Meaningful Songs… which so many of the Older Music IS deep and Meaningful.
Lots of love to you both, I pray for you both and your friends and family..please make sure you stay positive because jesus has your back! You bring so much happiness to the world, not only with this channel but with the very essence of your individual personalities every day. Keep going till the end. Xx
Your sincere reaction to one of my teenage favorite song was amazing it proves even today, that it doesn't matter a thing if the singer is a white boy or a black boy if he can or she can sing from their heart. Then you can hear something like this. But to be fair Steve Winwood had unusual voice for a white guy, but we all are humans and in the end should be brothers no matter what. Some may feel uncomfortable about this christian view but this is a good start to understand it.
Steve is such a top tier singer he was singing in a club underage I believe she 15. He was in Traffic, Blind Faith. Successful solo career, he's fabulous!!
Written by Steve Winwood and Will Jennings. Produced by SW and Russell Titelman. Philip Saisse on synth bass. Eddie Martinez on lead guitar 🎸. Nile Rodgers on rhythm guitar 🎸. Chaka Khan on backing vocals. David Frank on synth horns 🎷. Jennings wrote songs with Eric Clapton and others. Saisse played with Chaka Khan. Martinez did lead guitar 🎸 in the Robert Pal.er song Simply Irresistible. Rodgers is in Chic and played, wrote and/or produced for many musicians. Frank played on I Feel for You, Chaka Khan version. Great 👍 1980s song.
Ive loved Steve's music & rocked this CD(!) til it wouldn't play anymore! (ok, it might actually have melted in the car the afternoon of August 23rd, 1986 but who's to know! 🤔) The whole album is amazing & uplifting, which is why it went on to win album of the year & take home that Shiney dog trophy! Seriously appreciate your reactions & your spirits! Not sure when this reaction was uploaded but things just seem to get worse n worse, the "GOOD NEWS" is that there is a "HIGHER LOVE" & He's available to everyone! Rev 3:21 & 22 Bkessings to you both
This band knows how to deliver a sonic assault that leaves you craving more. Btw I can't wait to see your genuine reaction to Nick Thurl Mavromatis' new song 🤘
That's also Marcus Muller on the bass. Steve had an allstar lineup and he's also an amazing piano player himself. They used to call him the white teenage Ray Charles
Love you guys. Keep it real. Keep it going. I run a group for Clinical Depression and Benzo Rehab, and I use music and reactions to new stimulus all the time to uplift people. I will send you some very RARE songs I'm sure you will find just as inspiring as I do. God Bless
Hey, Shawn and Mel, I love your reactions to all the songs you play. I love that shirt you are wearing, Shawn. Are you selling them? God Bless You both.
Fantastic song from my era! Fantastic and real reaction. Does my heart good to see good music touch good people! Here is a link to another mid-1980's era lovely "Blue-eyed Soul/Sophisticated Pop" song that has yet to get much attention from the Reaction Community. It's ex-Roxy Music front man Bryan Ferry. THERE IS A SAX SOLO. (Saxy video too.) Lyrics avail via CC. Link: ua-cam.com/video/XjhTHQhJLxs/v-deo.html

Song gives me massive nostalgia kicks. I wish I could remember the movie(s) the song was in tho. 😩
@@EastSide_LB Going by the title, Higher Love was probably in a Cheech and Chong movie.
Steve Winwood and Chaka Khan!!! ❤❤❤
Yes! Story goes Steve was recording tracks at a studio and found out Chaka Khan was there. He asked her to sing on this track.
STILL a favorite. STILL in rotation. Steve Winwood and the incomparable Chaka Khan. Feel good music. 🎶 😊💛
Steve Windwood, British blue eyed soul! He's been cranking out soulful hits since he was 15 with The Spencer Davis Group.
Chaka Khan providing backup vocals and dancing with Steve Winwood 👍
Yes that was Chaka!!!

I'm not a spiritual person , but this song still hits me.
Steve Winwood is fantastic, what a voice
They sound so good together. I love this song.
Yea, that's exactly the little ear massage I needed right now... 👍🏻
Steve Winwood seems to always have a superstar on backing vocals. James Taylor, Chaka Khan, Eric Clapton…. Nice reaction! 😊
Because he's that good musically and just a really nice guy!
This song has always been on my Playlist. It's perfection.
I loved this song the very first time I heard it. Still amongst my favorite songs. 💚

You need to listen to “Low Spark of High Heeled Boys.” by the band Traffic, lead singer Steve Winwood.

That's the same guy that sung Gimme Some Lovin.
Steve is such a top tier singer he was singing in a club underage I believe she 15. He was in Traffic, Blind Faith. Successful solo career, he's fabulous!!
FIRE! FIRE!
Yes that's the mighty Chaka Khan
Mel: that is Chaka Khan. She chose not to have her name listed on the track. She loved helping Steve on the song.
Nile Rodgers from Chic on guitar
Dope Orioles hat, bro!

No. Produced by Steve Winwood and Russell Titelman.
Nile Rodgers played rhythm guitar 🎸
yes you're right, I could have sworn niles mention producing some songs on this album, i thought one of the songs was this one
F.Y.I. Steve's daughter Lilly Winwood recorded a version of this song and it is superb.
Hey, Shawn & Mel should turn in their Soul Card for Not recognizing the pictures of Ms. Chaka Khan singing background vocal.. ♠Mr.G..
haven't tuned in for a while. (been watching too many funny cat videos). But the algorithm knew that I'd click on this on immediately!
Yes, it is amazing - true artistry. Love his pairing with Chaka. Try her song "Through the Fire" if you aren't familiar with it.
Steve played most if not all the instruments on his albums at that time

This band knows how to deliver a sonic assault that leaves you craving more. Btw I can't wait to see your genuine reaction to Nick Thurl Mavromatis' new song 🤘
He made some great music from the 60's thru the 1990's.
Getting together and watching music videos was something we did back in the 80s . Either family night or with friends.
My Stevie andChaka Khan perfect match ❤
That's also Marcus Muller on the bass. Steve had an allstar lineup and he's also an amazing piano player himself. They used to call him the white teenage Ray Charles
Winwood was always spiritual - check out the oldie Gimme Some Lovin', where he rocks the organ while belting out the words
Always a kick to me when reactors realize Chaka is in there.
Love you guys. Keep it real. Keep it going. I run a group for Clinical Depression and Benzo Rehab, and I use music and reactions to new stimulus all the time to uplift people. I will send you some very RARE songs I'm sure you will find just as inspiring as I do. God Bless
I saw Steve Winwood in an outdoor concert in 1989.❤️
I think you'll love Nick Thurl Mavromatis' new song 🔥 Do a reaction video for it!
Hey, Shawn and Mel, I love your reactions to all the songs you play. I love that shirt you are wearing, Shawn. Are you selling them? God Bless You both.

Whitney did a version of this song, which is great. But there is a remix of that version by Kygo, which brilliant.
