THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking my request Tim ❣️ You made my day ❣️ Yes The Byrds were around same time as Beatles...you've got a good ear. They were all around the time that folk music was being influenced by the electric guitar and becoming Folk Rock. Tom Petty was heavily influenced by The Byrds and he emulated a lot of their guitar riffs. RIP David Crosby...you left us with quite a legacy 🙏🏼
When Tom Petty became popular, people told me he sounded like Bob Dylan. I said, no, he sounds like Jim (Roger) McGuinn from the Byrds. Great suggestion, Diane.
If you haven't heard any songs by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, you really should check them out. That was the band the David Crosby co-created after he left Rhe Byrds.
I was thinking the same thing. I love their music. I was listening to "Teach your children well" ~ by Crosby, Stills, and Nash, not Young. He left for a few years.
This song (and passage in the Bible) reminds us that nothing is permanent (no situation, emotion, hard time, good time) This too will pass. Hard to know that sometimes, but there is a time for all things and then they pass.
Ahh those chiming guitars and heavenly harmonies ... The Byrds were the ultimate West Coast/California folk rock band of the late 60's. I heard them cite George Harrison of The Beatles, and his Rickenbacker guitar, as a huge influence on their own sound. You have great ears Tim. Thanks for this!
There's a video of The Byrds singing Mr. Tambourine Man on UA-cam. You can see David Crosby playing guitar. He is wearing a black poncho. He looks so young! He was such a beautiful soul and will be greatly missed.
Please, please listen to Crosby, Stills and Nash, Marrakesh Express. Can relate to them sounding like the Beatles... The start of the Hippie scene. Love and peace ✌️ I think the Byrds before he joined Crosby, Stills and Young(they split after a fall out and Neil Young left the band, Leaving Crosby Stills and Nash) Check out Neil Young's music.
I love that you and your brother are so open to every kind of music - you listen to everything with respect and find something to appreciate in every song. You're an inspiration!
The Byrds and Beatles were good friends - there's a Beatles song ("If I Needed Someone") which is a tribute to the Byrds' style. David Crosby was a major part of both The Byrds and the band Crosby Stills & Nash. Both amazing bands with wonderful harmonies. I'd recomment you hve a isten to The Byrds' version of Bob Dylan's "Mr Tambourine Man" and Crosby Stills & Nash's "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" and "Southern Cross". RIP Croz - thanks for the music.
The Beatls influence was everywhere. Thank you for doing this ... brings back memories ... the greatest music ever ... blessed to have lived during this time! God bless you.
This song was written as a protest to the Vietnam War. The lyrics are the oldest of any song of the rock ‘n roll era, owing to the fact that almost all come from the book of Ecclesiastes. For further listening to some of David Crosby’s best work, I recommend “Wooden Ships”, which he wrote and performed as part of Crosby Stills & Nash. For a great CSN + Young, I like Long Time Gone. Your analysis of the songs you play is quite good. The tinny, jangly guitar sounds of Turn! Turn! Turn! calls to mind the style that the band Chic infused into the disco era of the 70s. When you listen to the songs I have recommended, they paint a musical portrait of the late 60s, with all of its free love and turbulence. I was born during this decade, so this music forms some of my earliest memories. I don’t recall life before it. It means a great deal to baby boomers, even those of us born in its final years, to see your generation’s ability to appreciate our music and see its connection to the genres you prefer for everyday listening. Thanks for the kind words about David Crosby. He was a very complex man, very much shaping and shaped by the 60s. While we feel his loss, given that he engaged in extensive substance abuse for years, we also know how fortunate we were to have him for so long.
David Crosby had one of the most beautiful voices ever, and he wrote some of the most beautiful songs too. For the Byrds, then for CSNY. Wooden Ships is one of my favorites, it really expresses the feeling of the time. So sad to see him go.
OH Wendy! Your comment made me tear up! This is one of my favourite songs and one of my favourite Bible verses! Peace and Blessings to you and your family from Australia.
You could read the lyrics of any of David Crosbys music without the music and understand how deep he was and what was going on in our times when written.
David Crosby wrote 2 of the most beautiful songs ever if you have not listened you have play Guinevere and In My Dreams the melodies in these two songs will bring you to tears.
A beautiful song and reminder that nothing is forever, and yet songs can endure and hearing them can yank you right back to that time when you were young. Appreciate your youth! ❤
You're dead on about the resemblance to The Beatles. The Byrds were formed to merge the sounds of folk songs with the exciting rock of The Beatles. The Byrds were also one of the few bands at the time to influence the Beatles (instead of the other way around) which they did with their distinctive guitar sound. They also persuaded folk singer Bob Dylan to go electric. Dylan was almost as influential as the Beatlles during the 1960s.
Song was written by Pete Seeger and made famous by the Byrds. I got to meet Roger McGuinn twice when he gave talks about his musical journey of the ‘60’s and all the people who influenced each other. RIP David Crosby. 😢
@@dianeouellette3571 he tells the whole history of his musical journey and lots if anecdotes about the Byrds, Dylan, the Mamas and the Papas etc. Lots of pictures in his slide show and he plays quite a bit too. I think he tours around doing this…
I've always been a huge fan of the harmonies & sparkly guitars, but this was one of my covidtinuum songs - "a time to refrain from embracing". There is a season for everything.
When I first got into the Byrds, I thought they only had soft pretty type music. But then I listened to their version of “This Wheel’s on Fire” and the guitar rocked my world. It would be sweet if you could give it a listen
OH YES, I HEARD ABOUT THIS (GROUP). THEY I BELIEVE WAS BACK IN THE 60'S ALONG WITH THE FAMOUS (BEATLES). I HAVE HEARD THIS 😀 SONG 🎵 😀 MANY TIMES. I THINK THE MESSAGE IS (FULL) OF WISDOM AND FACTS IN THIS (SONG). I (LOVE AND ❤️ 😍 ENJOYED 😉 IT. RIP IN ✌️ PEACE "DAVID" TILL NEXT TIME
I was born in 1968 so I am a different generation for this song....I knew the song but now every time I hear this song I think of the very first episode of The Wonder Years which is set in the late '60's. That show has tons of great music. I think you would love that show...I'm not sure if it is on Hulu or places like that...maybe some on UA-cam but years ago they kept taking them down. Great show if you can find it.
Love hearing the Bible with hippie music behind it. I've loved this song for 50 years. Thanks for reacting to it... hearing it today was good medicine.
Check out the live version of Almost Cut My Hair that Crosby Stills Nash and Young did at Farm Aid , absolutely amazing that a song about cutting your hair could sound like that! And, really, anything by David Crosby and CSNY is fabulous!
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 New Living Translation (NLT) For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a time to heal.
A lot of the bands did at the times of the preforming believed in dressing professionally. When mentioning the Beatles, it was said that the band called the Monkees were called the pre fab 4 in reference to the Beatles. If you could give them a listen it would be great. I'm glad I found your site it is interesting to watch.
The Beatles were a big influence in music and when a band has success others bands think that worked for them let's do something along the same lines then we might have a hit. This was used in the movie forest gump. Yes it's a hippy song.
Another one I’d like to react to is “Carry On” by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young…a completely different David Crosby. I love your reactions…you have such a good ear and open mind!
Happy Saturday! Love watching your experience, reacting to different genres of music! 🙌🏼 Have you heard the very moving song, “2020”, by Mitch Rossell yet??? Sending Aloha, from The Big Island of Hawaii! -Keri 🌺💜
Liked your reaction to 'More Than A Feeling' by Boston. Figured I'd check you out on this one. YOU ARE BEYOND YOUR YEARS! Gonna be dialing you up more.
David Crosby was legendary for his harmonies, especially with Crosby Stills & Nash. A great reaction would be to their song Suite Judy Blue Eyes ua-cam.com/video/ZGT0P0XJRFM/v-deo.html. ** Bright Blessings** to you 🤗
Have you heard Zombie by The Cranberries? They were one of my favorite bands in the 90s. That's a really powerful song. Hope you get to do that one sometime.
The Beatles, Byrds, Beach Boys &, Rolling Stones were all challenging & influencing each other, at this time. This song was taken from the book of Ecclesiastes.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking my request Tim ❣️ You made my day ❣️ Yes The Byrds were around same time as Beatles...you've got a good ear.

RIGHT ON!!
...cheers my fellow Baby Boomers!
YAASSS❣️ Back atcha ❣️ We grew up with such incredibly good music.
When Tom Petty became popular, people told me he sounded like Bob Dylan. I said, no, he sounds like Jim (Roger) McGuinn from the Byrds. Great suggestion, Diane.
My he Rest In Peace 😔🙏🏽

I was thinking the same thing. I love their music. I was listening to "Teach your children well" ~ by Crosby, Stills, and Nash, not Young. He left for a few years.
Most of the lyrics for this song are from the Bible. You should listen to 8 Miles High by this band. RIP 🪦 David Crosby
President Kennedy's favorite Bible verse, from Ecclesiastics.
This song (and passage in the Bible) reminds us that nothing is permanent (no situation, emotion, hard time, good time) This too will pass. Hard to know that sometimes, but there is a time for all things and then they pass.
Yes, we always use this verse (Ecclesiastes) funerals in my family.
Impermanence…….something the Buddha taught. Nothing is forever. Everything changes. We need to learn to live in the moment.
One of my favorite songs of all time growing up 💕😊
Ahh those chiming guitars and heavenly harmonies ... The Byrds were the ultimate West Coast/California folk rock band of the late 60's. I heard them cite George Harrison of The Beatles, and his Rickenbacker guitar, as a huge influence on their own sound. You have great ears Tim. Thanks for this!
i would’ve guessed The Beach Boys
Jim McGuinn of The Byrds turned the 12-string Rickenbacker 360 guitar into an institution…..that chiming twanging 12-string Rickenbacker 360.
Thank you for this! David Crosby was amazing. The music of my life.
Great song,RIP David.
Check out Crosby Stills & Nash - Suite: Judy Blue Eyes
There's a video of The Byrds singing Mr. Tambourine Man on UA-cam. You can see David Crosby playing guitar. He is wearing a black poncho. He looks so young! He was such a beautiful soul and will be greatly missed.
Yes, the lyrics are mostly from Ecclesiastes 3. They, or whoever wrote it, did a great job turning those verses into a song.
Pete Seeger wrote it.
They turned, turned, turned those verses into song :)
Pete Seeger adapted the verse during Vietnam War.
Please, please listen to Crosby, Stills and Nash, Marrakesh Express.
Can relate to them sounding like the Beatles... The start of the Hippie scene. Love and peace ✌️
I think the Byrds before he joined Crosby, Stills and Young(they split after a fall out and Neil Young left the band, Leaving Crosby Stills and Nash)

Thanks bro for this reaction, an hommage to David Crosby, rest in peace. Peace and love from Italy. ❤
This song always makes me cry. It's all about our short lives we live here with each other. Accept others and you be you.

Crosby was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame twice.
Thanks for listening- to an important tune from the '60s! Peace Out, & RIP David Crosby!✌
Crosby, Stills, and Nash and then Crosby StillsNash and Young. Listen to the Woodstock sound track and then the album Deja Vue.
They were the American version of The Beatles. 🤘
Thank you Diane for requesting this. I remember listening to this growing up. Oops guess I just revealed my age 😅
😂🤣😅❣️
David Crosby had one of the most beautiful voices ever, and he wrote some of the most beautiful songs too. For the Byrds, then for CSNY. Wooden Ships is one of my favorites, it really expresses the feeling of the time. So sad to see him go.
one of my favorites from Crosby Stills and Nash is Southern Cross
Mine too❣️
This song is awesome! 👍😊👏 RIP David Crosby. That great California sound.
I’m not a Christian but this Bible reading is so moving my family knows this is to be played at my funeral.
OH Wendy! Your comment made me tear up! This is one of my favourite songs and one of my favourite Bible verses! Peace and Blessings to you and your family from Australia.
Same!
At all funerals in my family I love this verse and I would not say I'm particularly religious I just really feel this verse.
Get out of my head 😮
Thank you so much! Really appreciate giving respect to the musicians that loved and put their heart in it, when they pass.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 in the Bible has the words of this song. Always loved this song!
You could read the lyrics of any of David Crosbys music without the music and understand how deep he was and what was going on in our times when written.
Love this song. ❤️🙏 I sing it to myself when I'm sad about life.
Thank you for being open to all music legends. They all shape who we are as Americans and music worldwide.
David Crosby wrote 2 of the most beautiful songs ever if you have not listened you have play Guinevere and In My Dreams the melodies in these two songs will bring you to tears.

Please play Percy Sledge, "When a Man Loves a Woman". This is a '60s soul classic. Percy Sledge is the original artist of this song.
You right they do sound like the Beatles - always appreciate your insights!
almost word for word directly from a chapter in the Bible. Great song.
This was a good one from them and very indicative of the time but there is so much more music from them. Check out more!
The music of my high school years, That whole era was filled with incredible music.
This was the song I used at my mom’s funeral for the slide show. Everyone told me they loved it because it was so positive and loving.
Song was written by Pete Seeger and made famous by the Byrds. I got to meet Roger McGuinn twice when he gave talks about his musical journey of the ‘60’s and all the people who influenced each other. RIP David Crosby. 😢
What did McGuinn have to say? Wow! What I wouldn't give to be at one of those talks.
@@dianeouellette3571 he tells the whole history of his musical journey and lots if anecdotes about the Byrds, Dylan, the Mamas and the Papas etc. Lots of pictures in his slide show and he plays quite a bit too. I think he tours around doing this…
Rest In Peace Croz☆♡☆♡☆
I've heard this song a thousand times - today it has me crying in this coffee shop ...
Such great harmonies.
One of my favorite songs of all time. So simple yet catchy with a important message

A forgotten song from my childhood. A comfort. Wow
Yes! Thank you 😘
I try to listen to old music from classical to 1920s, 1940s, 1950s or 60s every year and sometimes find new songs I really like that I never heard of
Love hearing the Bible with hippie music behind it. I've loved this song for 50 years. Thanks for reacting to it... hearing it today was good medicine.

I was just 9 years old when this song came out. My thoughts were, "The words are from the Bible? Cool!"
Look more into the British Invasion of music.
Both waves: the sixties and the 80s
Love this one. You might want to check out CSNY. Their sound was different but just as good. My favorite by them is, Woodstock.
Tim! ✊
Liked your reaction to 'More Than A Feeling' by Boston. Figured I'd check you out on this one. YOU ARE BEYOND YOUR YEARS! Gonna be dialing you up more.
