Red, Red Wine🍷🍷🍷is another great song they did. It was written and originally performed by Neil Diamond. Sorry Neil, I love all your stuff, but I like UB40's version better! Please do their version Jay. 🙏 💗
I'm a lifelong UB40 fan, if you decide to listen to more, you won't be bored. There's such a good variety of reggae in their albums. I'd recommend Signing Off and Labour of Love 2 👌🏻😁 Ali Campbell also has some solo albums you might like too, like Great British Classics, where he puts his reggae spin on songs by the likes of the beatles, (hard days night). His voice is perfection on He Aint Heavy He's My Brother.
@@Kazza_8240 Me too! I was introduced to UB40 through Labour of Love II in 1989 when distant relatives from USA sent me (to Lithuania, former USSR then) a casette (and two more - some album from New Kids on the Block and Depeche Mode "Enjoy the Silence"). Still in love with that album!
My family & I are from the islands in the Pacific & my dad was a kid when UB40 was rising, I did not know this was a cover because I was brought up with UB40. My dad had me at a young age & I’m glad my dad introduced me to so many different genres of music, but UB40 will forever feel like home! 🤙🏽
Said before I'll say it again ....I love UB40. Such a shame they split, they are so good together even though Ali and Astro were amazing on there own, just wished they were all still together 👍
Me too man. Seen them live 7 times, and last 2 concerts was Ali Astro and Mickey, with Matt doing backing vocals that Robin would usually. Ali's voice never disappoints, but it is sad. And I wouldn't ever pay to see UB40 without him. Don't even start me on Duncan's reggae/country abomination of an album 😤 Someone needed to remind him 'reggaes what we love and that's what we defend, and that be a love that could-a never end' 😂❤️💛💚
UB40 are an English reggae and pop band, formed in Birmingham, England in December of 1978. The band has had more than 50 singles on the UK Singles Chart, and has also achieved considerable international success. They have been nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album four times, and in 1984 were nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Group. UB40 have sold over 70 million records worldwide. The ethnic make-up of the band's original line-up was diverse, with musicians of English, Welsh, Irish, Jamaican, Scottish, and Yemeni parentage. Their hit singles include their debut "Food for Thought" and the two Billboard Hot 100 number ones, "Red Red Wine" and "Can't Help Falling in Love". Both of the latter also topped the UK Singles Chart, as did the band's version of "I Got You Babe". They covered Elvis Presley‘s "Can't Help Falling in Love" in 1993, peaking at number 1 on both the UK Singles chart, and the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Another great UB40 song, they did a duet, is that even possible with a group, with I think Chrissy Hynde from the pretenders. It's called I got you babe and is a cover from Sonny and Cher.
Chrissy Hynde invited UB40 to be her support act, and duetted with Ali for I Got You Babe, she seen them perform live, and asked them immediately to be her support act. We've got her to thank for giving them a leg up 😁
@@horsefootrot8044 Also, on Ali's solo album Running Free, he duets with Smokey Robinson, Katie Melua, Bitty McLean, Beverly Knight, Mick Hucknall and Lemar. 👌🏻 Baby Come Back with Pato Banton is another duet worth mentioning. Plus - UB40 got a mention in a song by Ed Sheeran and Stormzy, in August I think, so that's introducing them to a new audience as well 😁
One of the best covers ever made. Another that you should check it out is Pet shop boys covering “always on my mind “ from Elvis Presley . It’s an Amazing cover also.
Shout out to you, Jamal, and ALL the reactors who reacted to Fleetwood Mac. Their album "Rumors" went to No.1 on the Billboard Charts a few weeks ago....last week dropped to No.27 and this week No.13 and climbing!!!! It's you guys getting it out the word to young folks!!! Thank you!!!
@@turdferguson400........I'm not mixed up Friends I said or addressed saying," Shout to "You", Jamal, and the other reactors....." lol.....hahaha....I maybe old but I am not losing my memory..."You" acknowledging him... and of course Jamal and others like KSO...Because you, I and others have requested old school music like Fleetwood and they liked it ...reviewed the songs...
Love UB40. All from Britain but from different ethnic backgrounds. Reggae music is a strong influence in the UK. There are documentaries about how reggae came to be a force to be reckoned with.growing up in London we used to go to house parties. Lots of rub a dub reggae. Just the best days
UB40 started a lifelong love of anything Reggae! Growing up in the late 70’s-80s these guys were and still are the bomb! PLEASE PLEASE react to more UB40🙏🏻❤️
I met the whole band a few years ago, when they were flying back to London. I guess there was an awards show here that night. I had no idea there were actually 40 band members. My boss gave me a look like she wanted to slap me for not figuring that out. 🤣🤣🤣 I checked in all 40 of them and over 100 suitcases. Worth it though. They’re such a great group of fellas. They’re very nice and super talented. I grew up listening to these guys. They’re so good.
They make me proud to be British 😂 and if cos my age group growing up with first generation west Indians in Britain, I have so many great happy memories of all the single mum's playing their different music and us kids playing. We are family to this day , it was the best childhood and I still know every word to all the old reggae songs like so many Britt's. It's a whole music genre
UB40 turned a lot of songs into Dancehall grooves. But their early original songs like FOOD FOR THOUGHT were so spot on and reflected the times. The earth dies screaming always haunts me when I hear it.
Another invention of the 80's was ska. UB40 is reggae, but ska was big as well. Such as Madness (You've done them) and The English Beat. If you want to go in this direction, I'd recommend English Beats "Save it for Later", or "Tears of a Clown".
Ska and bluebeat originated in the1960s. It was the late 1970s that it was revived under the banner of 2 Tone (records) with The Specials & Madness, The Beat, Selector & others. UB40 certainty came along on the back of that. BTW, I saw them late 1979 3rd on the bill to The Beat & Selector as they already had records out
I remember they did an outdoor concert at the excel centre right near my house and everybody was out on the street jamming as it was so loud good times
UB40, great band and I enjoy all their music. You should really check out their early stuff, one in ten for example. 👍 also check out a band called “fine young cannibals” lead singer has an outstanding voice
Please Jayee do more UB40 reactions..I always get a goofy smile on my face when you enjoy their songs...I LOVE UB40!!!!❤ REACT TO THESE 1GROOVING 2. SING OUR OWN SONG 3. MAYBE TOMORROW 3.

I love the different versions of this I've heard but this and Elvis singing it though very different are my favourites. I love the pace of this and yes it's a song that gets people up dancing, I couldn't resist it when I was younger lol. A great reaction from you sweetheart, it was lovely to see the happiness on your face and watch you chair dancing (my Mum became disabled and she sat and my younger siblings said that never mind she couldn't stand up to dance Mum chair danced. I always found that a lovely expression but my Mum tried not to let things stop her, where there's a will there's a way. Take care and stay safe please everyone God bless you all love hugs and peace Mary-Ellen UK
They tore it up, on the floor up! 👍👍👍 LOVE THAT MAN'S VOICE & everything about that band. They do another GREAT cover version, by The Chi-Lites "HOMELY GIRL". Official video is great...
It is very hard to make a cover song better than the original and this definitely is.First time i have heard this for a while and i love it.Great to hear it again. Another great cover song is You Cant Hurry Love by Phil Collins.
@@oskarobit I only mentioned Phil Collins because the cover song he did was very good.And it was my opinion about the UB40 track.Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I got 27 thumbs up in a few hours so other people do agree with me. I like all kinds of music and artists not just Phil Collins.Also I am not a big fan of UB40 but I do like this particular cover,enough said. Thanks for your opinion and agreement. Just voicing my opinion that is all.
I think Elvis would have liked this version. A new generation at the time keeping his music going. They put their sound on it, but kept it respectful to Elvis's version. Side note a group called the pet shop boys did a cover of Always on my mind, you should check it out, they did it in 1987. React to it.
Brilliant song! Another great Elvis cover is 'Always on my mind' by the Pet Shop Boys. Great 80's pop classic. It's another track that sounds completely different to the original Elvis version but just works. Give it a go! Love the channel btw!
This came out when I was at school here in the UK. I bought it on cassette and played it over and over. I was obsessed (I already knew and liked Elvis's version). And what girl wasn't in love with Ali Campbell?! EDIT: I don't think I've seen this video since the 90s!!
Great reaction Jay...love UB40...coming from Hawaii, we love the reggae music...a couple of UB40 songs I enjoy are Cherry Oh Baby, Version Girl, Don't Break My Heart...
_Some great UB40 tracks:_ Homely Girl Groovin' If It Happens Again Wedding Day Don't Break My Heart Rat In Mi Kitchen Impossible Love Cherry Oh Baby One in Ten The Way You Do the Things You Do
@@kathbrown1437 Heck! I'll take anything other than the ususal 'Red Red Wine' which is pretty much all other reactors on UA-cam have acknowledged. This 'Can't Help Falling in Love cover, is not exactly a prime example of the band's music, imho. 99% of UB40 reactions on UA-cam = 'Red Red Wine' 99% of Radiohead reactions on UA-cam = 'Creep' It's like, c'mon guys, we can do better than that. Let's suggest some songs that truly reflect each band's work, here.
Food for thought is excellent, and focuses on the problems of poorer countries, very catchy tune and has always been one of my favourite UB40 hits. I know what you mean about all the reaction vids seem to cover the same songs all the time,gets old very quickly
@@davidmcfarlane9185 an excellent group and always looked like they were having a great time, had some very good hits I love homely girl,always puts me in a good mood
Another cover of this that's also really good is by an English band/group called "Lick The Tins". It was used in the 80's movie "Some Kind Of Wonderful". It's another completely different take of the song, it's really good!
One of my favourite covers of all time. Dem jus know how fi dweet, nuh true Jay? lol I drop everything when this comes up on my playlist. Can't do nothing but sing and dance along. You'd probably enjoy "The Way You Do the Things You Do" and also "I Got You Babe" with Chrissie Hynde.
Lo-ove that horn section. Oooh, ooh, you should do "Here I am"! Also do "Come and Get It" by the Beatles. I don't know why I thought of that, I just did.
Just because of the name, every time I see UB40, it reminds me to bug you to react to “Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)” by US3! It’s an early 90s jazz hip-hop hit that will make you wanna dance!
i agree, J, about this version being so upbeat. for me, this version reveals that "i'm so happy to lose myself in this love" feeling. something about the elvis version sounds almost remorseful about falling in love.
Superior version, I say. The music video is all surveillance and hidden cameras because it's from the soundtrack to a movie called "Sliver", an erotic thriller about an apartment complex full of cameras watching people have sex... and murder! It's trash, but in a very early '90s way that is especially enjoyable today.
It's not often I prefer a cover song to the original, but this is one of those times! I adore this version ❤
@Kelly Pierce Same, it’s sooo good!! 💯🎶
Red, Red Wine🍷🍷🍷is another great song they did. It was written and originally performed by Neil Diamond.
Sorry Neil, I love all your stuff, but I like UB40's version better!
Please do their version Jay. 🙏 💗
Me too! Love their version. His voice is so great and they choose their cover songs perfectly suited to them.
UB40 has a few of those
This song dominated every radio station when it came out. It was HUGE
Next one Kkngston Town I love it
A la tv aussi !!!.... la Guadeloupe confirme ;)
Spent 7 weeks at #1 on the billboard hot 100 chart
Dont forget the film sliver topped box office at same time which video was based on
Still is
Theres nothing sexier than a group of men jamming to a love song... this song is sooooo good! ❤
I was thinking precisely the same even before I read your post!

UB40 is some of Birmingham, UK’s finest, such a diverse group.

Musical masterpiece, how they turned a timeless classic and made it their own.
Love this reggae version!The horns were on another level.🎶🎺🎷🎤🌴👍
The horns turned this into a whole nother song!!! From balad to banger
You would really enjoy the longer version of Red Red Wine
With Astro!!!!

It was the lead song to the 90's film Sliver, not sure if it was originated to be used as part of the film or not.
From the ' SLIVER' soundtrack. it is very good. The movie was filmed in the very thin NYC highrise. AKA the Sliver building.
They tore it up, on the floor up! 👍👍👍 LOVE THAT MAN'S VOICE & everything about that band. They do another GREAT cover version, by The Chi-Lites "HOMELY GIRL". Official video is great...

Food for thought is excellent, and focuses on the problems of poorer countries, very catchy tune and has always been one of my favourite UB40 hits. I know what you mean about all the reaction vids seem to cover the same songs all the time,gets old very quickly
I love with what they did to many rivers to cross as well.
@@davidmcfarlane9185 an excellent group and always looked like they were having a great time, had some very good hits I love homely girl,always puts me in a good mood
I love this song an his voice is amazing. Please also react to UB40 "i got you babe". 🙂
Loved it, never would have thought that song would sound so good with that beat. 👍 good 👍 👌 👏
Ooo I'm glad I heard their version.
Have a listen to UB40’s ‘Rat in Mi Kitchen’ you’ll love it.
Another cover of this that's also really good is by an English band/group called "Lick The Tins". It was used in the 80's movie "Some Kind Of Wonderful". It's another completely different take of the song, it's really good!
Holy crap, I thought I was the only one. "You look good wearing my future." 🤗
Absolutely love this version!!
One of my favourite covers of all time. Dem jus know how fi dweet, nuh true Jay? lol I drop everything when this comes up on my playlist. Can't do nothing but sing and dance along. You'd probably enjoy "The Way You Do the Things You Do" and also "I Got You Babe" with Chrissie Hynde.
my favourite version of this song - try their version of many rivers to cross - its perfect
I was 13 when this was big hit in Britain I'm 41 now lol love there tunes u have to listen to some more of there music u will love it
Lo-ove that horn section. Oooh, ooh, you should do "Here I am"!
Also do "Come and Get It" by the Beatles. I don't know why I thought of that, I just did.
Dude you gots to hear them with The Pretenders
Deffo, kj! 💖💖💖👍
@@turdferguson400 dude yes! Chrissy and them singing *I Got You Babe* is so great
Totally agree.
Also, MORE Pretenders songs!!! Am I right??! 💖💖💖
@@turdferguson400 I think I know only 2000 miles. Some more suggestions?
Break out the lighter! Thanks for the joy you put out in these stressful days!
Just because of the name, every time I see UB40, it reminds me to bug you to react to “Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)” by US3! It’s an early 90s jazz hip-hop hit that will make you wanna dance!
I had that song in my head today and was thinking I needed to suggest it to him to react to!
@@Stephanie-xg7mg It’s sooo good!!
My absolutely fav song from UB40. "something were ment to be........ !!" ❤️❤️
Finally - love this song.
i agree, J, about this version being so upbeat. for me, this version reveals that "i'm so happy to lose myself in this love" feeling. something about the elvis version sounds almost remorseful about falling in love.
This song single handily got me into UB40 thanks to a completion album my sister had at the time!
Once again, yet another BRILLIANT song from UB40, fabulous group, lead singer Ali Campbell (Birmingham, England, UK) xx
Jay you are living legend!!!
I definitely enjoyed the 70s and 80s music and am glad I was born in the 60s and got to enjoy all the 80s music whilst in my teens .
Absolutely love them... from my hometown in Birmingham 😍
They do such a great job on this song 💗
Some Jimmy Cliff please, more of that reggae vibe
This is Real Music. Nothing like those years for good Music
Superior version, I say. The music video is all surveillance and hidden cameras because it's from the soundtrack to a movie called "Sliver", an erotic thriller about an apartment complex full of cameras watching people have sex... and murder! It's trash, but in a very early '90s way that is especially enjoyable today.
