The line, "Playing Star again", reminds us that no matter who they are, they can't believe their own fame. In their own mind, they are just another person; it's fans who have elevated them.
Bob Seger is in a legend. He writes songs that puts images in your head. Have been listing for over 50 years. Go ahead and listen to his other songs you won't be disappointed. Loved your reaction.
Bob is such an Ameican treasure! His songwriting is outstanding! He lives his songs with his emotions flowing free. My favorite is "Roll Me Away" you won't be disappointed if you listen...blessings to you both❤
The song "Turn the Page" was written by Bob Seger. It was originally recorded by his band, Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band, and released in 1973 on the album "Back in '72." Metallica recorded their version of "Turn the Page" in 1998. It was included on their album "Garage Inc.," which is a compilation album featuring cover songs.
Bob Seger is a national treasure! When searching out his music, his live shows are almost always better than studio verision. Check out his Night Moves and You'll Accompany Me if you want to further explore.
Bob Seger is a great rock singer, songwriter & musician known for his raspy powerful voice. He wrote & recorded songs that dealt with love, women & blue-collar themes. "Turn The Page" is my favorite by him. But he had so many great songs especially in the 70's-80's such as "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man", "Night Moves", "Still The Same", "Hollywood Nights", "Against The Wind", "You'll Accomp'ny Me", "Shame On The Moon", "Mainstreet", "Roll Me Away", "Like A Rock", "Shakedown", "We've Got Tonight", "Old Time Rock & Roll" etc.
Seger is fantastic ,please listen to his Night Moves and also Against the Wind and Like A Rock . You made an excellent point about sort of going through life with blinders on and not appreciating or knowing about so many really good things .I was married at 19 ,my first son was born 6 days after my 20th birthday and I had 4 kids before I was 25 . I worked 2 full time jobs for 14 years and then one well paying job that required about 70 hours a week for the next 28 years to support my family and I had no time nor the energy to take my nose off the grindstone to look around and appreciate life . Now that I am retired I am continually reminded of how much I missed . A great quote I read " No one on his death bed ever says . I wished I had worked more hours ."
Seger is one of the all time great song writers. While songs that he didn't write, like Old Time Rock and Roll are fine, his self-penned songs have so much feeling and are so evocative. So many truly great songs to explore.
Aldo Reed was the sax player and he would go up to a very high area or in a sling (over the crowd) in the auditorium for this song and the crowd would go crazy.
For some of us 1973 seems not so long ago..I was 16, and in love that year. It didn't last, but life is like that. It goes on, and I have no regrets..They are beautiful memories, and it was a great time in my life..This song brings those memories flying back to me..Thanks for the upload!..One you can follow up on this one is Jackson Browne's "The Load Out/Stay"..It was always only performed as the last song of his concerts, as a tribute to fans, and his road crew...It tell's the same kind of tale, about touring from town to town, doing nightly shows many miles apart...There's a great video on here of a performance..Hope you check it out..I enjoy your reactions!
The radio version is actually the version he did live at Cobo Hall in Detroit for his Live Bullet double album. And the Metallica version is a cover of Bob's song.
this is the live version not the studio version. It is the superior version of the two. Bob Seger has the best power voice in the industry and was very underrated as an artist
You both made me Happy watching your response to this song for the first time, nothing like music to connect all of us, and there is nothing like a Great Bob Seger song.Thank You new subscriber.🎸🎼🎹❤😎
I've been front row for this song in concert. When the sax began he was all you could see on stage in a spotlight. That was in the late 70s. I still get chills. Seger is a beast. Do 'em all. He'll never let you down. Brilliant songwriter and singer. True to his craft even to this day.
Uncle Bob doesn't have a bad song, his entire catalog of music is 🔥✌️ might I suggest his song " Roll me away" one of the greatest road trip songs ever!
Sometimes some of the great songs aren't the ones that are released as singles and this is a classic that Bob Seger's vocals and the wail of the sax are the real hallmarks but little things like the sounds of the strings really make this an absolute all time classic song. So many great songs by Bob Seger and I'm sure most that I would have thought of are said below. I had the distinct pleasure to see him live on the Like a Rock tour. It was a FANTASTIC SHOW!
This describes being on the road, going from show to show as his life 'turns a page' only to repeat itself. Bob is still performing & is still amazing. I grew up seeing him before he was famous. He played locally here in Michigan and has a voice that is immediately recognizable. Love all the clips showing him at different stages. I knew him when that beautiful hair was long. Now its gray. LOL Other cool tunes by him are 'Mainstreet', 'Night moves', 'Nutbush city limits' or 'You'll accompany me' to name a few.
Good call. Bob at piano older than film of him in concert.He was a party hit machine for live shows. Just incredible catalogue of dance tunes and sentimental rock tunes celebrating a souls life.
1973? Let's see, I was a sophomore in high school then. Loved this song, had a couple of Seger albums including "Live Bullet" which had this and his other hits on it.
This song was always the one I picked to Karaoke, when I was over served at the local tavern. Mistakenly thinking his voice range was perfect for me. I love this song and it is my top five of songs period. Sorry Bob, for not doing justice to it in the past. Give me Seger and Heart and my listening needs are satisfied.
I'm so happy you are reacting to Mr Bob! He is so iconic! Oh BTW, talk to each other as much as you want, don't ever worry about that! I feel like we are friends, you have a friend in TN that you two didn't know you had. Ha my attempt to be funny. Listen to more Bob, he will never disappoint. Love & peace. ❤✌🏼
My brother had a similar experience of walking into a restaurant with a band late at a night after a concert in Iowa in the early '70s, and the place was packed with rural people at 11 pm and all heads turned toward us and all conversation stopped. And a group of young guys were gathering out front of the restaurant to fight is as we came out - just because the band members were dressed differently and mostly had long hair. So we skipped the meal and just drove out of town as quickly as we could. I imagine Black people, Native Americans, Asians or anyone else (not like them) walking into that all-white restaurant would have gotten a similar reaction. Sad that people judge others on their appearance without really knowing anything about them. The movie "Easy Rider" is a must-see to get a feel for how blatant prejudice worked in those days.
This is an older Bob singing with pictures of him as a young rocker flashing across the screen. Not often that you hear a musician singing about his life. Bob is definitely a legend and still relevant today.
The images are a montage from Bob Seger's concerts. Don't know what is up with the lyric closed captions translating the word "page" into "pain". :( The title of the song is Turn the Page.
Bob is THE quintessential American rocker. From Detroit, Michigan, he hes the grit and soul of the American people in his voice, who toured for 50 years all over the US. We f*cking love him.
It is awesome (but strange to me) that you heard the Metallica version first, THEN Bob. This is "one of the greats," right here. Wonderful to watch you enjoy it so much!
My New Years song, Turn the Page. Sry I didn't react earlier but I've listened to this for 14 years right after New Years. As the world rolls over a year I feel I should... So I turn the Page.
This was recorded live in Detroit in 1975 and included on "Live Bullet" in 1976. THIS is the best version I've heard. His original 1971 studio recording, in my opinion, pales in comparison to this masterpiece. One of, if not THE, best live albums of all time.
Metallica did a nice try at this song, however my personal taste prefers Bobs original. This is probably his number one song in his huge catalog. My favorite is Feels Like Number, Like a Rock and a lot others. Bob does not have a bad song.
Another of the fantastic songs that shaped my musical palette from an early age! Glad you are discovering Bob and his band....such good music!! Cheers!
You guys are always so much fun, always great to hang out with you in your experiences. So refreshingly genuine, very nice. So sweet, you guys are just great. I find it so fascinating to see folks experience these songs from my youth for the first time and see how it affects them too, it’s like hearing it again for the first time myself. Some of these songs, I actually saw them performed live by these bands. Your videos remind me of times so long ago when I was young, first learning about the world in so many ways. Hard to remember how raw it all was, just learning to experience the world constantly. Anyway, thanks for all the memories re-lived. 😊
Hahahaha, Metallica was probably a bar band or in high school when Bob Seger was writing this (and other) charted hit songs, lol. God love ya, young ones hahahahahaha!
If you want a definition of classic rock? Seventies…if I could only pick three bands or singers? One would be Bob Seger and the silver bullet band. Wonderful
JUST TO CORRECT THE RECORD,THIS IS AN ORIGINAL BOB SEGER SONG METTALIC COVERED IT LATER,FOR A CHANGE OF PACE PULL UP BOB SEGERS LET IT SHINE RECORD AMAZING!
I always tell the younger generation. The 70's and 80's generation of music was the best. Growing up back then, listening to all the great artists was unbelievable. They were so many great one. Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Van Halen, The Eagles, Bob Seger, Phil Collins, Heart, Kansas, Journey, Foreigner and so many more. These bands were real artists, they spent their lives on the roads. They didn't make a ton of money back then. They played in a different town every night. And the biggest thing was they poured their heart and soul into their music, and they didnt have no stinking autotuning to help their voices. They used their talents!
I promise you would love night moves…bob of course wrote it about the discovery of young love. He is a treasure and so respected. Of course Metallica loves Bob. LOL
The lyrics you had displayed for the song had a lot of inaccuracies in them. You should check it out with the actual lyrics--this is a beautiful song that always earned him standing ovations when he used to play it in concert!
Detroit born and raised. He's a treasure here in Detroit.
trust me guys MR. SEGER is a legend.go down the rabbit hole
100% one of the best story tellers and song writers most people can relate to.
The line, "Playing Star again", reminds us that no matter who they are, they can't believe their own fame. In their own mind, they are just another person; it's fans who have elevated them.
The King of Detroit Rock and Roll
My favorite song of his, I can't even imagine Metallica doing it.
I absolutely love your reactions to these songs. Your genuine and feeling thoughts about what you are hearing is very refreshing to witness.
That is the 1975 Live version from his live album.... The original version is from the album '' BACK IN 72 ''

Bob Seger is indeed a treasure. Such a wonderful talent.
Perhaps the greatest rock storyteller of all time.
You have got to hear (LIKE A Rock) You will definitely put it on your LIST !

Has a large catalog of music. Retired from performing last year. Please do more Bob
Incredible writer, musician, singer, story teller.
You need to do more Bob Seger
Bob Seger lives close to me here in Michigan, USA..he's a gem!! Listen to 'Roll Me Away'..another jam!
"Wow 1973 Wow" LOL I was 22 years old when. Please check out night moves. This old man would love to see your reaction to him . Peace ✌️
I was just 15 when this song came out.
Hollywood nights, Main Street, Like a Rock! The man has too many hits to list.
Seger is fantastic ,please listen to his Night Moves and also Against the Wind and Like A Rock . You made an excellent point about sort of going through life with blinders on and not appreciating or knowing about so many really good things .I was married at 19 ,my first son was born 6 days after my 20th birthday and I had 4 kids before I was 25 . I worked 2 full time jobs for 14 years and then one well paying job that required about 70 hours a week for the next 28 years to support my family and I had no time nor the energy to take my nose off the grindstone to look around and appreciate life .

It's from '75... Live Bullet at Cobo Hall Arena in Detroit...
Seger is one of the all time great song writers. While songs that he didn't write, like Old Time Rock and Roll are fine, his self-penned songs have so much feeling and are so evocative. So many truly great songs to explore.
How wonderful the two of you are.
Top-shelf reaction to a top-shelf talent! Thank you.
Aldo Reed was the sax player and he would go up to a very high area or in a sling (over the crowd) in the auditorium for this song and the crowd would go crazy.
Try Againt the Wind its one of my favorite Seger tunes. Turn the Page is a classic

This song came out in 1972 I believe my senior of High school . The memories come flooding back .
a song from my youth, Bob Segar is badass!!!. Thanks
Seeger is such an excellent story teller and a musical genius! The life of a pop star gypsy laid out in song!
I've been front row for this song in concert. When the sax began he was all you could see on stage in a spotlight. That was in the late 70s. I still get chills. Seger is a beast. Do 'em all. He'll never let you down. Brilliant songwriter and singer. True to his craft even to this day.
This was HUGE where I am about 50miles north of Detroit me and my sisters would jam it on our big ol hi-fi stereo
Uncle Bob doesn't have a bad song, his entire catalog of music is 🔥✌️ might I suggest his song " Roll me away" one of the greatest road trip songs ever!
Agree-love, love "Roll Me Away".
Bob Seger is still performing and his catalog is outstanding. My personal favorite is "Her Strut" but he doesn't have a bad song.
Sometimes some of the great songs aren't the ones that are released as singles and this is a classic that Bob Seger's vocals and the wail of the sax are the real hallmarks but little things like the sounds of the strings really make this an absolute all time classic song.

This song is haunting. Dominika you're right, you don't want it to stop. You want the magic to contintue.

This band has so many great songs!!!!
Bob is one of the best in the world at his craft.
You can't go wrong with Bob - such a great story teller.
"Like a Rock," official video of Bob Segar!
Night Moves! Another song with good story telling! Like a Rock another! One Hit right after another! With Bob Segar! Your going to love this!...
🇺🇸❤🇺🇸
Saw him at our highschool in the in Hamilton Ontario Canada when he first started out
1973? Let's see, I was a sophomore in high school then. Loved this song, had a couple of Seger albums including "Live Bullet" which had this and his other hits on it.
From the album Live Bullet. The whole album was recorded live in Detroit in 1974. Check it out, best live album ever recorded.
This song was always the one I picked to Karaoke, when I was over served at the local tavern. Mistakenly thinking his voice range was perfect for me. I love this song and it is my top five of songs period. Sorry Bob, for not doing justice to it in the past. Give me Seger and Heart and my listening needs are satisfied.
Like a Rock.
The music Justice good today as it was 50 years, you're so cool.😊😊😊
I'm so happy you are reacting to Mr Bob! He is so iconic! Oh BTW, talk to each other as much as you want, don't ever worry about that! I feel like we are friends, you have a friend in TN that you two didn't know you had. Ha my attempt to be funny. Listen to more Bob, he will never disappoint. Love & peace. ❤✌🏼
Bob lived it, wrote it and recorded it live in 1973. Long before Metallica was ever heard of.
Keep working! Wonderful.

Such a classic!❤
I heard this song first time in USA 1980. It has been one of my favorites since.
Cheers from Denmark 👍🇩🇰
If you want a definition of classic rock? Seventies…if I could only pick three bands or singers? One would be Bob Seger and the silver bullet band. Wonderful
His voice is so Captivating
Bob Seger wrote this song ❤
Main Street. Another story song.
Love it! Great song from a great artist! Love Bob!!❤
I’m so glad i came across this version. Metallica did a version when I was a teenager and I remember hearing that and also loving it
You guys are pretty fn cool.
Against the Wind will always be my favorite.
I would recommend "Like a Rock" and "Mainstreet" Bob Seger from Michigan near where I grew up with his music.
JUST TO CORRECT THE RECORD,THIS IS AN ORIGINAL BOB SEGER SONG METTALIC COVERED IT LATER,FOR A CHANGE OF PACE PULL UP BOB SEGERS LET IT SHINE RECORD AMAZING!

Try "Night Moves" for an emotional roller coaster and a beautiful take on love and the passing of time.
How endearing is it, that the wife has heard the Metallica version? 😍😍
Bob is a working class hero .
Bob Seger Silver Bullet Band is from Detroit Michigan and just never got out of the United States for reasons beyond any of our control/understanding
Night Moves ❤😊
I promise you would love night moves…bob of course wrote it about the discovery of young love. He is a treasure and so respected. Of course Metallica loves Bob. LOL
Great review guys ...say hello to Borat!
Metalica was a cover, this was written by Bob Seger
The lyrics you had displayed for the song had a lot of inaccuracies in them. You should check it out with the actual lyrics--this is a beautiful song that always earned him standing ovations when he used to play it in concert!
