This was a very old recording that got blocked and we never got to post it until now!
Ah...that explains the intro music. I was thinking you brought it back.
@@charlie5thumbs351 the intro music started gettin everything blocked! This was recorded last July 1st and had to wait to be unblocked for that long! Sometimes it’s a pain!
That also explains how you apparently didn’t know who Ivan Drago was yet at the time!
@@RobSquadReactions - You asked if James has a song more relaxed. Even his ballads, like "It's A Man's World", which you have done, have quite a bit of passion to them. There is one recording of his that reached the top 40 called "King Heroin", which is a spoken word recording. It would be something unusual and different for you to cover.
You both reverse-aged extremely well! Love your channel and vibes! Keep it up! :)
R.I.P. Carl Weathers & Godfather James Brown
And the songwriter, Dan Hartman.
This is from Rocky IV. Peak 1980s movie.
With my hero Ivan Drago!
They reacted to Rocky IV
"I must break you"
The blond guy is actor Dolph Lundgren who played Ivan Drago, these were some scenes from Rocky IV. certainly a must watch
Surprised they wouldn't recognize it cause I'm pretty sure they've done Rocky 4 on their movie channel .
I don't know how Dolph Lundgren got his hair that blonde, it might be natural, but....if he dyes, he dyes.🤪
They watched it on their other channel
A young Dolph Lundgren would have been the perfect Master Chief in Halo movie. Because the guy they have now don't look like he should be Master Chief.. And sound nothing like him either.
Best walk up ever. James Brown singing Living In America with Carl Weathers dressed up as Uncle Sam.
Weird Al has a fun cover called Living With A Hernia!
I was just thinking about that song !
@@serendipity191 You got to think about Al Yankovic when you hear this one. His take on this may be his funniest song.
@@serendipity191 Me, too.
@@debjorgo This is one of those songs where my brain always goes to the parody first and I can't help but hear those lyrics in my mind when I'm listening to the original.
@@johnplaysgames3120 To quote Metalica - Sad but true
James Brown went to view Elvis’s body during funeral time. He wouldn’t leave for five hours, and cried over and over. He loved his friend Elvis.
What does Elvis have to do with? This is all about James Brown and the greatness HE brings to the table.
MC Danny Ray kept trying to help him away. He’d put a cape over his shoulders and help him to his feet, then James would throw off the cape and return time after time. 🪦👑😂
@@ChrisC709 shut up
@@ChrisC709 Yes, but I appreciated the comment because I did not know he stayed for 5 hours and he was that upset….and that they were good friends. Glad to know.
If you don't love this great funky patriotic song, then you ain't an American.
Weird Al Yankovic parody of this song is also amazing. Is titled "Living with an Hernia".
Yes, you need to start doing some Weird Al parodies starting with this one. James Brown let Weird Al use his band and stage to recreate the video nearly exactly.
@@TomP-pf7knYes they are really missing out not doing Weird Al! “Living with a Hernia,” “White & Nerdy,” “Word Crimes,” and “The Saga Begins,” just to name few they need to react to!
My suggestion when doing Weird Al... If they haven't seen the original, do a video with the original, followed by the Parody in the same video...
Weird Al did a parody of this song “Living with a Hernia.” It is hilarious.
@@biguy617 "Yeooow! I feel bad!"
One of the funniest things in history is James Brown getting interviewed while on a little magic nose powder on the news yelling “LIVING IN AMERICA”. Happy America day everyone, be safe and be healthy 🤘🏾✌🏾
I love it 😂
@@tylerhackner9731What proof do you have that James Brown snorted anything🤔
@evarene - lol. Have you ever seen the interview? Dude is definitely on something. 😂
@@evarene07 It's not exactly a secret.
The ONE and ONLY......JAMES BROWN. THE GODFATHER. He was one of kind.
Yes he was! Other artists admired him as well. Michael Jackson was a huge fan and he emulated his dance moves! I believe Jackson attended his funeral as well. The late great actor Chadwick Boseman portrayed him well in Get On Up.
There will not be another like him!
One of a kind, James Brown. Often imitated, never duplicated. This song is fire!!!
James Brown has a slow song that is one of his biggest classics ever: "It's a Man's, Man's, Man's World".
He is still going off even in the slow song.
Now you HAVE to see Weird Al Yankovic's "Living With a Hernia".
Fun note.... For the Video, Weird Al received dancing instruction from James Brown Himself.
@@macmcgee5116 James also lent Weird Al the use of his stage set and band so he could recreate the video perfectly. That's how much James enjoyed the parody.
If James Brown don't get you moving you don't have a pulse 🤠
Now you have to see the Weird Al version. 😆 Living With A Hernia 🙌🤣
Because of this song, James Brown was the only artist to have the #1 single in the USA on the day he got inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. I believe Dan Hartman produced this; you seriously need to do a react to Hartman's song "I Can Dream About You," which came out within a year of this, I think.
I believe they've already reacted to that Jam. Only one they haven't done far as I'm aware is vertigo/ relight my fire which I suspect will be a proper jam for Jay and Amber
Dan Hartman was also lead vocalist for the Edgar Winter group on the classic "Free Ride".
Eddie Murphy paradies this on saturday night live
"Eddie Murphy - Eat Your Heart Out!"
Hot Tub!
@@marygoodson4920 Owwww too hot in the hot tub.
Such a banger from the Rocky movie!
Happy 4th of July!
Gotta view "Living with a Hernia" by Weird Al someday. James Brown liked Weird Al and helped him with the same dancers to make the video and it's a banger too.
James Brown had more stage presence in his little finger than most people have in their entire body! I was fortunate enough to have spent a good bit of my childhood in Augusta, GA & therefore, was introduced to Mr. Brown at a young age. If you want some slow songs by Brother James, I would suggest "It's a Man's, Man's Man's World", "Oh Baby Don't You Weep", "Please, Please, Please", "Down & Out in New York", "Try Me", "Bewildered" & his cover of "Georgia on my Mind".
Jay always misses so much from these videos because he listens with his eyes closed. I hope he pays attention during the editing process.
A classic from Rocky IV, a movie you evidently still need to see!
I think they reviewed it already.
@@sonsofthesportsguy I thougth they had, but how could they forget this entire scene. They also said they didn't recognize Drago. How can one forget James Brown AND Drago?
@@joecarcione6636 I was wondering about that as well.
@@sonsofthesportsguyYep, they posted a review of Rocky IV on Aug 30, 2023. But in that reaction they said that they had reacted to this video previously but it was blocked and were saving it for July 4. So this reaction is old but only being posted now.
@@SuperHondo21 Thanks for that explanation. I was just ready to cut them some slack because they've tried to absorb over half a century of pop culture over the last couple years. It's got to be quite a jumble in their heads by now.
Omg, who wasn't having fun filming that scene? Go, Mr. Weathers!
I absolutely love this song…by Mr James…💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸LIVING IN AMERICA!
The BEST COUNTRY THATS EVER BEEN…AMERICA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
💪🏽🇺🇲
My sister took me to see James
Brown when I was 7 yrs old and
it was so impactful I still remember
it to this day. I'm 68, Wow 60 yr ears
ago.
That was Dolph Lundgren as Ivan Drago in Rocky IV. This song was written for the soundtrack.
Just another vote for Weird Al's "Living with a Hernia" parody. James Brown lent Weird Al his band and stage set to help get it as close as possible to the original video.
"Living With A Hernia" is Weird Al Yankovic's parody of this hit. Rocky IV brought me here. Happy 4th guys! James is a legend. This was also featured in The Tuxedo with Jackie Chan and Jennifer Love Hewitt.
In the early 80’s Eddie Murphy had a stand up show where he’s describing James Brown’s singing. Fell out of my chair.
"Going to da hot tub hott tub too hot" lol
"I need a word here.
HEEEYYYYYY!
Oh, that's good!"
"We getting paid, keep singing."
he even did a james brown impression in front of james brown 😂😂😂
That will always be funny to me. “I don’t know what he just said….Yeah!” 😂
James Brown "Living in America" great choice, Happy 4th of July, Can't wait for the fireworks. 😀 Peace✌️ and Love❤️ your 70 year old forever hippie😊
If you can sit still listening to James Brown you are DEAD! His music makes you move and lifts your spirit.
Some of James Brown slow jams are "It's a Man's, Man's, Man's World" "Try Me" and "Please Please Please".. But his biggest Club Banger is "Give It Up Or Turn It Loose"🔥🔥🔥
The Godfather of Soul The One and Only The Legend James Brown Happy Fourth of July Guys 🎉🎊🌆🇺🇸
This is the PERFECT way to set up starting Weird Al reactions, as he does a parody of this song with a brilliant homage to the video as well. Time for Weird Al!
God I just love James Brown. He's a gem!!!
Funk, soul, horns, & James with that massive hook. Yeah, get up.
I love this video...James Brown at his dynamic best. Weird Al has a great spoof called "Living With A Hernia" and he really does a great job of imitating James Brown in his video! I can't hear this song w/o thinking of Weird Al's spoof!! This song was on the soundtrack of one of the Rocky movies!🤣😂
written by Dan Hartman, lets not forget this is a cover. He also wrote I Can Dream About You.
WOW!! After all these years, I never knew that this was a cover version! And I definitely didn’t know that Dan Hartman wrote it!
@@benjohnson1633 It's not a cover. Hartman wrote it. He didn't sing it until he decided to on his 1994 album.
@@censorshipsucks9493Okay, I see. Thanks. I was only going by what the other commenter said.
@@benjohnson1633 No worries. But that's exactly why we can never trust everything we see on the internet.
The hardest working man in showbusiness... James Brown is the man bro!
The blond guy was Dolph Lindgren from the movie "Rocky IV"
GOD KNOWS, JAMES BROWN WENT ACROSS COUNTRY DOZENS OF TIMES!!!!💋💋❤❤❤
Enjoy your Fourth guys, fire up that grill and enjoy your time with the kids, you only get one chance at these times, make the most of it. This was a later hit by James, but he is still The Godfather, the One and Only, JAMES BROWN. ✌️
Now you're talking! James Brown would get you on your feet! He was a hell of an entertainer.
James played outdoors in the rain with all the horn, backup singers on his 60th birthday at a local casino here in San Diego. He came out after getting most the water off the stage and told the crowd, "It's my 60th birthday and because you're here, we are going to do it all." He told the vendors to empty the hot dog bun bags and give them to the crowd. Michael Jackson picked up a lot of moves from Mr. Brown. ❤
You need to watch weird Al's parody Living with a hernia absolutely hilarious and he nails James Brown 🤣
This is always fun to watch. Two other James Brown songs I highly recommend are "Licking Stick, Licking Stick" (My personal favorite James Brown song) and "The Old Landmark" from "The Blues Brothers movie.
No James Brown No Funk - The Godfather Of Soul - and American Treasure, Icon, Genius. Not a firecracker...an Atomic Bomb of Talent.
Weird al's parody of this song is hilarious
Love that version lol
If this song does not having you moving, check your pulse because you are most likely dead. For me this was the highlight of Rocky IV and a fun fact is that this song was cowritten by JB and Dan Hartman of "I Can Dream About You" fame. James Brown was one of those performers who fell into the force of nature category because when he performed, you could not look away. So glad you did this review today, guys, and Happy Independence Day!
You ask if James Brown has a song where he is relaxed and calm. Maybe not. But "How do you stop" is a really nice slow jam.
Love this song! I believe it's from Rocky 4. 😊
Way before Rocky 4
@@ricksaunders8074 Nope the Movie was release November 27 1985, and the Song released in December 1985
@@mikesteinkrauss9773 I just looked it up
You are right
Happy Independence Day! Enjoy the fireworks, food etc. with your family.
I can’t tell you how much I loved this song after hearing and seeing it in “Rocky IV” while in college in 1985. James Brown performed this PERFECTLY in the movie. What a great song!
Definitely the hardest working man in entertainment back in the day 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
I LOVE James Brown!! Happy Independance Day!!
For future reference for this day, check out: Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA", John Mellencamp's "R.O.C.K in the USA" and "America" by Simon & Garfunkel.
This one gives me chills! A favorite! The Godfather of Soul.
It was a lot of fun growing up in the 1980s.
I could not stop listening to this song when it first came out. I was only 10 at the time and loved it more than any other song. Always got me on my feet!
My favorite James Brown song is "My Ding-a-Ling" the live version of that song is amazing with the crowd. It's a song that has so many memories for me when I was a kid, giggling the whole way through.
You guys must,must, must listen to the parody by Weird Al Yankovic, Living with a hernia. James Brown actually helped him with the video, providing the set the dancers and helping Al by showing him his moves.
Believe me that you will not be disappointed by going down the Weird Al rabbit hole.
RIP TM Steven's who sang back up on this.
Such a banger
This is a perfect video to renew the request that you guys react to some Weird Al. I have a feeling you two have avoided Weird Al over the years because he does parody songs and you think you won't enjoy them but think about this: James Brown loved Weird Al's parody of "Living in America" SO MUCH, he lent Al the use of his stage set, his band, and he taught Al some of his dance moves. People who "just make funny songs" don't get that kind of treatment and respect from artists. Al is at a different level. He's an institution in music at this point. Pretty much every artist (except for Coolio) has taken it as an honor to get one of their songs parodied by Weird Al and it's been said by artists that having Weird Al do a parody of one of your songs is a sign that you've made it in the music industry. Y'all are missing a trick by avoiding Weird Al.
If you decide to try him out -- and please do -- start with his parody of this James Brown song. Al's is called "Living With A Hernia" and it is both funky and hilarious. Or, if you want to dip into a song that Jay may know from his rap background, Al also does a parody of "Ridin'" by Chamillionaire and Krayzie Bone. His version is called "White & Nerdy." Or, since you're both teachers, you might enjoy Al's parody of Robin Thicke's song "Blurred Lines." Al's version is called "Word Crimes" and is a lesson in good grammar.
Point is, there are SO MANY great Al songs -- Weird Al has been making songs since the early 80s and its a HUGE rabbit hole -- and, now that you've been doing this channel for a couple of years and really expanded your musical horizons, you'll recognize a lot of the songs he parodied and will be able to appreciate them the way the fans and the artists themselves have. Heck, even Kurt Cobain was stoked when Al said he wanted to do a parody of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" called "Smells Like Nirvana." He asked Al if he would make it about food -- because Al had a lot of songs about food and was kind of known for it early in his career -- but Al wanted to make the song about how hard it is to understand what Kurt is saying. Kurt loved it.
Btw, another artist you two like who loved Al's parodies of his songs so much that he lent Al sets, props, dancers, etc. was Michael Jackson. Al did parodies of MJ's songs "Beat It" and "Bad," and MJ was a big fan. Al's songs were called "Eat It" and "Fat" and the videos are spectacularly close to the originals (just silly).
So, yeah, if the artists you admire loved the parodies Weird Al made of their songs, there's no reason for you two to avoid Weird Al. There's a reason he's the only parody artist that most people can name. He's just at a different level.
A classic James Breown is bigger than life. I absolutely agree with you on his "Hunh" and his "oww". Loved your reaction.
I was coming through customs in France and after I had clearance to return to the USA, the agent sang this song and did an amazing James Brown dance for a minute. Everyone clapped. Great moment on the way back to USA. But, I always tear up when they say, “Welcome home” at the US port and I see the kazillion US flags. Sweet.
Remember Rocky 4 , he did this song before the Apollo vd ivan fight
This makes me sad. I grew up looking in awe at America and that song encapsulates it all. The glamour, the wealth, the possibilities. It seems out of place now.
Love it - how could you not get up and dance to this!
Happy 4th American ! James Brown an American classic !🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
The video of James Brown performing 'Please Please Please' live at the TAMI (it's on UA-cam), has to be one of the most incredible displays of stagecraft ever witnessed. No wonder the crowd were going nuts. I first saw this back in the 70s, when Robert Plant, a guest on a UK rock music show, insisted that the producers screen it.
Happy Independence Day Jay & Amber, I'm 66 and James has been in my ears since I was 10 when I tried to do his dance on the kitchen floor
James Brown's last residence was in Beech Island, South Carolina, not too far from where we live (Aiken). It was a sad Christmas morning in 2006 to wake up and find out he passed . . .
I first learned about James Brown when I watched the movie Ski Party. James Brown and the Fabulous Flames did a cameo where he sang I Feel Good
Another good song for today that was released earlier this year is "An American Here" by Dion and Carlene Carter. Yes, the same Dion who did Runaround Sue, still rocking at 84 going on 85. He released an album of duets earlier this year - "Girl Friends" and it is excellent :)
This is from Rocky 4, where Rocky is fighting a Russian in the middle of the Cold War before the Berlin Wall was taken down. Thus the super funky, patriotic song representing for America.
This song was Apollo Creed’s theme in Rocky IV! Dolph Lundgren as Ivan Drago, he fights both Apollo and Rocky in the movie.
Love to hear James Brown sing this.
I'm gonna join in with the folks saying you gotta check out Weird Al's "Living With A Hernia," especially this close to seeing the video.
"Please, Please, Please" was his first big hit!
Have a great Fourth with the fam!! Thanks for the video! This was a fun one!
I've never heard anyone say they don't love this song!
RIP, Carl Weathers, the LEGEND. Athlete, actor, director...and HANDSOME!
The other boxer is portrayed by Dolph Lundgren (Swedish actor, filmmaker and martial artist) in 'Rocky IV. He's currently battling kidney cancer, and I wish him a clean bill of health. And, he's HANDSOME!
Give it's a man's world a listen by James. It's a classic.
Can't listen to this without hearing Weird Al's Living With a hernia
4:18 If you wanna see more of James dancing ability you NEED to watch his performance on David Letterman in 1982. Beyond incredible.
You can't sit still when this tune comes on!
If you guys want a low key James Brown try King Heroin, probably his most hard hitting song ever. It will hit you all the way into your soul. Make sure you listen to a full uncut version. The full version is in 3 parts and is over 14 minutes long.
Song was used in Rocky IV. JB won two Grammy awards for it that year.
I LOVE James Brown!! Fantastic choice for Independence Day! Great Reaction You Guys! I'm Glad You Guys Feel Good!! Happy 4th to You & Yours!
Saw him live in '97 at a festival in Leeds, England.
I couldn't understand a word he said. He must have left the stage 12 times before rushing back to entertain us again.
One of the greatest experiences of my life.
Y'all should check out the James Brown biopic called "Get On Up". Chadwick Boseman plays JB. Mick Jagger is one of the producers of the movie. There's also a documentary "The Night James Brown Saved Boston".
LIVING WITH A HERNIA!!!!!
Watch Eddie Murphy on SNL imitating James Brown...comedy gold
James Brown did this Song in Rocky 4. He sang it before the fight between Apollo Creed and Drago...gave me goose bumps.😊
RSQ - You got to follow this up with Weird Al's "Living with a Hernia"
I Love James Brown! 🙌🏿💯
Godfather of Soul
He was nicknamed The Hardest Working Man In Show Biz for a reason!
My favorite Janes Brown song, Just can't help moving to this with your bad self. This us from Rocky 4
I can't listen to this without hearing Weird Al's 'Living With a Hernia'
