Hi Jamel. Please take a look at Talk Talk.. a band from England in the 80s. Talk Talk my Foolish Friend video is so thoughtful and the voice of mark Hollis very special.
Hey JAMEL! Check out Billy Joel's song, "You're only Human"!! Makes a lot more sense than this man's LAME EXCUSE! LOL 🤣. Thanks for your reaction though. Now THAT made sense! LOL 😆
I've heard this song many times - was around when it came out - but never listened to the lyrics carefully 'til you stopped it, talked about it, and made me crack up. Thanks Jamel!
That's the way it is with me too on many of his vids. I always focused on the tune first. The message was secondary so I missed the meaning in many of them. Sad Eyes, for example by Robert John. Great tune. The message is telling a woman he's cheating with to wipe her eyes and split because his wife is coming back home.
Ikr! Fill the space of emptiness?? I was on a three day business trip? Tf you mean?? Filling your secretaries space is more like it! FOH!😂 I got issues!😂
God bless Jamal for having a strong sense of decency and good character! Cheating is cheating is cheating. Don't have a relationship if you can't be faithful to that one person .....
I’m 70 years old and grew up listening to these songs and going to many awesome concerts. It’s awesome watching you listening to these songs for the first time. It brings back the feelings for the songs for myself! Thank you for what your doing!
That's what I was thinking when she said we were apart.were they on a break to think about how their relationship was going and what to do next or did they split up?😁
Josh Smith ... It's a story about a couple being apart for whatever reason, whether it's a break up or separated because life happens. While they were apart loneliness happened and they both made mistakes, like humans do.
I'm a musician. Been playing for 24 years. I always hear the music, never the lyrics. This has ALWAYS been my fave 80s song. And I only found out what it was about like, 3 years ago! Lol
"Love Action (I Believe In Love)", "Mirror Man", "The Things Dreams Are Made Of", "Darkness", "Empire State Human", "Being Boiled" and "Seconds" are just some of the New Wave greatness that The Human League had in their early years. They are definitely a band worth investing some time in, beyond the songs that were at the top of the charts.
The Human League were one of the pioneers of electronic pop in the UK and were initially totally synthetic. Original keyboardist/writer Martyn Ware passed up the chance of buying a car to purchase his first polyphonic synthesizer, for instance. But they always wanted to be a pop group first and foremost (one of their seminal influences being Donna Summer's iconic disco hit, 'I Feel Love').
Hey Jamel. I had to laugh while watching you experience this song, getting tight with what the dude was saying, all the while thinking "Wait for it, Jamel." And then she dropped the lines! LOL This is a great song and it got serious radio airplay back in mid/late 80's. And it's still such a great song to deserve serious airplay now. ☮ out! ✌🏼
Check out "Sarah" from Starship and "fortress around your heart" by Sting. Not necessarily similar in content but both good 80s songs. Keep up the fun vids mang.
if you do sara you have to do it like i did as a kid and listen to we built this city and rewind the cassette at minimum 20 times before getting to sara.
'The Sound of the Crowd' and 'The Lebanon' are great ones from them. The singer Phil Oakey also did 'Together in Electric Dreams' with Giorgio Morodor (Heart of Glass, I Feel Love, etc)
Jamal and company, here are 3 more great '80's songs: 1) Howard Jones - What Is Love 2) Nik Kershaw - Wouldn't It Be Good 3) Nick Lowe - Cruel To Be Kind. Enjoy!
One of favorite songs from Human League. The song was written by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. Back in the day when the song came out you would hear this song playing even in the hood.
Hahaha! I was waiting for your face when she started singing her own confession and you didn't disappoint! I agree with your assessment btw but I was just waiting. Don't ever change! ❤
"To err is human, to forgive divine" Alexander Pope or as you would say, Different Strokes for different folks. An aunt by marriage had an affair & when she got pregnant was abandoned by her lover. My uncle took her back & raised the child as his own.
when i first heard this in 1986 i went hold on what is this? By the 3rd hearing i said this is the best thing they have ever done. I was into Human league from the start 'being boiled ' etc- loved them all 'Love Action' but this is my favourite song and it still sounds great today.
The beat and production were by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis from Morris Day and the Time. They eventually wrote and produced for Alexander O'Neal, Cherelle, Janet Jackson and countless others.
I love that you break down lyrics and really know music. Your videos really make my day. I’m slowly binging to catch up on everything you’ve done. Don’t stop keeping great music alive.
Dude, this was one of your best reactions - LOVE IT! Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis absolutely nailed the groove on this (as they did on damn near every song they wrote or produced - you could do a month's worth of reactions just on their stuff!). Cheers
I saw the Human League live when they were on tour for this album. I was so impressed that lead singer Phil Oakey's makeup was more on-point than the ladies. Fun show. And I remember that they just *killed* this song live. 👍🏼(Translation: killed = were great)
Yeah when I first heard this song, the chorus was stuck in my head. When I started learning the versus, I was like WTF? Lol … The song still brilliant!!
Oh goodness I had a great laugh; kept saying....wait, there's a second part (like all the rest of you were saying). Jamel's reaction was more than I was expecting...still laughing. :)
I lived in Sheffield when they were getting famous ,along with heaven 17 and ABC and you would see them in the clubs My claim to fame was doing a women’s self defence course with Susan and Joanne ( the two female singers ) very Yorkshire , very funny , was great ! I’m not sure if you look here ,but their track “ Louise” is lovely and shows Phil Oakeys bass voice off so well
Absolutely and always a favorite song of mine from the 80’s. 🎸♥️♥️. And l love your reactions to the lyrics…..which flew over my head as a kid for sure. 🤣
You're so right on the lyrical content & thank you for addressing it - I felt the same way too when analyzing the lyrics more closely as I got older, having falling in love with the song when it came out. Musically, it's absolutely gorgeous, which is what makes the song hard so hard to dismiss. Wouldn't it be nice if new lyrics (of fidelity) could be written for it?!
Nice selection! This song totally takes me back to the late 80’s, early 90’s. This track is super underrated, it just captures a moment in time with the synthesizers and vibe. Good stuff.
More than one couple has experimented with other folks. So, while the lyrics may not be ideal, they are accurate for some. That being said, the melody and groove are fire!!
Have loved that song since I heard it for the first time! The British boyband Five has a cover of this song and my teenage self was in la la land when they released it back in the day. Good times...
How quickly we forget, Jamel. If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with.- Stephen Stills And by the way, why are you taking this song so personal? It was a top 30 hit in the mid 80s! I think we can all suspend disbelief for the 3 minutes for a cool tune once in a while... lol Keep up the great work. Love the reactions
Wow!!! Ok, I couldn't wait to see this, cause I've LOVED this song since I was 16, but... AMAZING reaction!!! The indignation with his excuses, "but I'm still gonna dance!" 🤣 and waiting for the other shoe to drop... he almost fell out of his chair!!! 5 stars-- will like, share, and HIGHLY recommend this reaction! Outstanding!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hey man, how you doing? Great reaction! Didn't know this song but now i'm love with it. I was just watching some old videos, like the ones about Foreigner, Pink Floyd and Bob Seger, legendary reactions, it was like i could feel you, Amazing. I also watched the video about the bands you cannot react to and The Eagles was one of them. Such a shame, because they are a great band, with great musics like Lyin' Eyes, New Kid in Town, Best of my Love, Take it Easy, Peaceful Easy Feeling, Tequila Sunrise, Take it to the Limit, Desperado, and of course Hotel California. But anyway man, just keep doing your job, grretings from Brazil. All the best.
What's good for the gander is good for the goose. This is the one song of theirs that always moved me. Love those harmonies and falsetto singing, great melody and resigned admission of human frailty. Maybe mankind isn't made to be monogamist. I had actually confused this song with one by the same name by The Pretenders which was the theme song to a very short-lived TV show I loved back in 1998 called "Cupid". It starred Jeremy Piven in the title role and the lovely Paula Marshall as his therapist. He's convinced he's the actual Greek god kicked out of Olympus for his arrogance, banned until he matches 100 human couples without the use of his powers. It was funny and human, good lead actors but the song is one of The Pretenders' best. Please give it a hearing: ua-cam.com/video/RkW-8jwfIFI/v-deo.html
The thing about this song is he was married to his high school for about 2 years then he had an on and off fling with the dark haired girl in the group. They still remain friends to this day along with being in the group also.

Man when can we have a beer?? ✌️✌️ here you go brother 🍻🍻🍻 cheers bro, keep fighting the good fight!
PATIENCE ... this song is about getting your comeuppance (reaping what you sowed), put in a pretty way.
Hi Jamel. Please take a look at Talk Talk.. a band from England in the 80s. Talk Talk my Foolish Friend video is so thoughtful and the voice of mark Hollis very special.
Hey JAMEL! Check out Billy Joel's song, "You're only Human"!! Makes a lot more sense than this man's LAME EXCUSE! LOL 🤣. Thanks for your reaction though. Now THAT made sense! LOL 😆
Hey Jamel, I would love to see your bros react to this too.🙂😊
Waiting for Jamel’s reaction 😮 to when the girl says “ while we were apart… I was Human too”
And Jamel fallin’ back in his chair like “ whaaaat?!” 😂😂😂
Jam and Lewis added that rap.
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same here, the more he's going on about the guy and I'm like, just wait.
@@cvanz They wrote the whole song.
Highlight of the reaction video. 😆
I've heard this song many times - was around when it came out - but never listened to the lyrics carefully 'til you stopped it, talked about it, and made me crack up. Thanks Jamel!

Great tune. The message is telling a woman he's cheating with to wipe her eyes and split because his wife is coming back home.
Yep, same!
Me too!
Ditto
Making excuses for cheating!! Lol….leave it to Jamel to critique those lyrics!! Gotta love you man!!!
"I'm only human...you only single, now!"
That got the thumbs up alone. Hilarious!
Ikr! Fill the space of emptiness?? I was on a three day business trip? Tf you mean?? Filling your secretaries space is more like it! FOH!😂
I got issues!😂
I laughed out loud on that, too!
🤣🤣😂😂
Yeah, they were both unfaithful!
I was just waiting to see your face when she sang "I was Human too!" You did not disappoint! Thanks for your brilliant entertainment Jamal.
This was a classic Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis production. Yes New Edition's N.E. Heartbreak was produced by them. So the similarities are uncanny.
and a lot of Janet albums
Its funny How most pop songs in the 80s SOUND THE SAME
Reminds me of “ Can You Stand The Rain”.
Jam & Lewis we’re great producers. Rhythm Nation by Janet Jackson is their absolute pinnacle of quality.
@@manyelephants and the Janet album but I think rhythm nation spawned more top tens
I was DYING to see how he reacts to "the twist" --- worth it!!!
Literally was thinking the same thing
Oh me too. I was just waiting for him to get there.
🤣🤣🤣 yep
Yeah 😅
God bless Jamal for having a strong sense of decency and good character! Cheating is cheating is cheating. Don't have a relationship if you can't be faithful to that one person .....
Waiting patiently for the Jamel-AKA-Jamal relationship counseling channel to pop😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😅😅😅
I remember hearing this the first time and the "whooooaaa" as she informed how, indeed, she understood his situation quite well! 😊 Love your take!
I’m 70 years old and grew up listening to these songs and going to many awesome concerts. It’s awesome watching you listening to these songs for the first time. It brings back the feelings for the songs for myself! Thank you for what your doing!
Brother....seems like only yesterday that these songs aired on MTV/VH1, and the radio.
wow...how amazing! you are so lucky! I watch the live shows wishing it was there!!
I'm 45, I watched this as a boy. Loved it then, love it now, this is a forever song
This is soooo 80s...that my hair has started to crimp all on its own!
Brilliant 😂
LOL !! 👀
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis went in with their flawless production on this ThrowBack Jam!!!
Lol. .lol...
Love it!!!
I really hope you do (Keep Feeling) Fascination next! Talk about a great beat and some impressive synths.
Yes I love that one too!🙂
I can hear those synths in my head right now. Great song. Hope he does that one too.
I hope that's next it's on my phone playlist.electric dreams would be nice too
That song was a favorite of mine as a kid. Enjoyed watching the video on MTV.
Good one did they do tell me when as well . Rings a bell
She says "while we were apart, I was human, too." I'm wondering if it was like Ross and Rachel on "Friends"....they were on a break?
That's what I was thinking when she said we were apart.were they on a break to think about how their relationship was going and what to do next or did they split up?😁
That's exactly what she is saying
I've always thought the same damn thing!!
Josh Smith ... It's a story about a couple being apart for whatever reason, whether it's a break up or separated because life happens. While they were apart loneliness happened and they both made mistakes, like humans do.
@@MikeHart72 Exactly they both were in other relationships in other words, cheating. It happens, they were being human. LOL

They are definitely a band worth investing some time in, beyond the songs that were at the top of the charts.
Mirror Man!!
"The Lebanon"
@@makepeace234 Good call! I love that song.
'Open Your Heart', '(Keep Feeling) Fascination', and 'Together in Electric Dreams' also deserve a mention. They had quite a few hits.
Oh, I forgot Mirror Man glad you mentioned that one. They've had many good songs. Definitely underrated band.
The Human League were one of the pioneers of electronic pop in the UK and were initially totally synthetic.

I’m only half through this and loving, laughing, and agreeing completely with your reaction!
I always loved the plot twist of this song. 🥰
Imao at your reaction when finding out!
“Go join a damn swingers club” Jamel you are the best, love your content!
Fascination by Human League is a great jam.
(For my Gta vice city fam)
This song was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. They also produced the New Edition song, "Can You Stand The Rain". They do sound similar.
THE MINNEAPOLIS SOUND!!!!!!!
@@lccoleman3 viva mineapolis e São Paulo city
Check out "Sarah" from Starship and "fortress around your heart" by Sting. Not necessarily similar in content but both good 80s songs. Keep up the fun vids mang.
Random but I love those 80’s songs so much!!! Sarah is soooo nostalgic for me!
Good song!
if you do sara you have to do it like i did as a kid and listen to we built this city and rewind the cassette at minimum 20 times before getting to sara.
"Sarah" is absolutely beautiful 💜 reminds me of my childhood every single time!
Or A Little Time from Beautiful South
'The Sound of the Crowd' and 'The Lebanon' are great ones from them. The singer Phil Oakey also did 'Together in Electric Dreams' with Giorgio Morodor (Heart of Glass, I Feel Love, etc)
PHIL is an ICON!!! What an amazing group this is...
I love your comments on this. You are a good human. ❤️
My jam was always "Keep Feeling Fascination". Hey, hey, hey hey heeeey!!!
Jamal and company, here are 3 more great '80's songs: 1) Howard Jones - What Is Love 2) Nik Kershaw - Wouldn't It Be Good
3) Nick Lowe - Cruel To Be Kind. Enjoy!
Definitely agree with the Howard Jones and Nik Kershaw suggestion. What is Love and Wouldn't it be Good are great songs.
I'm with Jamel on this one.
If you haven't done "Keep Feeling Fascination" by them, you NEED to. That bassline is everything.
The meaning of the song aside…such a great song. Probably my favorite by them . Brings back a lot of good memories from the 80s
From the same era: Spandau Ballet: Through the barricade
Yes, beautiful song! Also OMD: Enola Gay, Maid Of Orleans, Souvenir, Electricity, (Forever) Live and Die, Dream Of Me,...
One of favorite songs from Human League. The song was written by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. Back in the day when the song came out you would hear this song playing even in the hood.
Hahaha! I was waiting for your face when she started singing her own confession and you didn't disappoint! I agree with your assessment btw but I was just waiting. Don't ever change! ❤
Always liked this song. Nice reaction.
This reaction cracked me up. So good!
Jamel, you brighten up my days with your reactions. You're a good man with good morals...
Song: Great
Jamel’s reaction: Priceless 🤣
This is British R&B at its finest! I love this song, and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis wrote this song and produced it. This was a mega hit in the 80s.
This song shows the brilliance of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis
Wait Jimmy jam and terry Lewis who worked with Janet Jackson wrote this ( learn something new everyday )
@@faiththomas1749 They wrote & produced it.
“come on baby dry your eyes..” I love this song so much.
This song hits me hard. reminds me of how messed up some relationships are.. this one is a very personal one

I am REALLY ENJOYING your reactions to these lyrics ‼️😂👏👏
Love it when Jamel gets animated when singing about some kind of infidelity!!
One of your best reactions ever. Haven't heard this song from start to finish in nearly 35 years.
Why do people make it so hard? Because we're human.
Fascination is such a fun, great song. Please do that one too.
when i first heard this in 1986 i went hold on what is this? By the 3rd hearing i said this is the best thing they have ever done. I was into Human league from the start 'being boiled ' etc- loved them all 'Love Action' but this is my favourite song and it still sounds great today.

I could hardly wait to see the expression on your face when she sang, 'while we were apart, I was human too'. lol Jamel_AKA_Jamel keep it goin' bro!
I'm not gonna lie, I was grinning the whole time you were reacting to him admitting it because I knew your reaction to her would be even better. Lol
Jamel basically says: The Human League - Human song is about NOT being a good human!
Preach brother Jamel! I feel the same way.
"You're only single now", ROFL
You're expression when she said she was human too. PRICELESS!!!
Dude, this was one of your best reactions - LOVE IT! Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis absolutely nailed the groove on this (as they did on damn near every song they wrote or produced - you could do a month's worth of reactions just on their stuff!). Cheers

They are still touring strong in the UK. Saw them two years ago and they were great
LOL - I was just waiting to see your reaction when her part dropped! Better that expected!
Yeah when I first heard this song, the chorus was stuck in my head. When I started learning the versus, I was like WTF? Lol … The song still brilliant!!
Oh goodness I had a great laugh; kept saying....wait, there's a second part (like all the rest of you were saying). Jamel's reaction was more than I was expecting...still laughing. :)
Love you Jamal, love your values. Your lady is very fortunate to have a man she can trust. Wish there were more like you out there.
I lived in Sheffield when they were getting famous ,along with heaven 17 and ABC and you would see them in the clubs
My claim to fame was doing a women’s self defence course with Susan and Joanne ( the two female singers ) very Yorkshire , very funny , was great !
I’m not sure if you look here ,but their track “ Louise” is lovely and shows Phil Oakeys bass voice off so well
Exquisite, refined, sophisticated .. Times of glory .. !!
Absolutely and always a favorite song of mine from the 80’s. 🎸♥️♥️. And l love your reactions to the lyrics…..which flew over my head as a kid for sure. 🤣
That song has soul. Sometimes life turns a bit sideways.

Loved watching your face as you processed the lyrics!❤️🤣
Would love to see you hear some of the beautiful South
LOL. Love it when she starts talking 🤣🤣😂😂!! One of the best reactions Jamal🤣🤣🤣😂😂when she said she was human too !! Priceless!! ❤️❤️❤️
Nice selection! This song totally takes me back to the late 80’s, early 90’s. This track is super underrated, it just captures a moment in time with the synthesizers and vibe. Good stuff.
"Things Dreams are Made Of" is a great song from them.
Who else was just waiting for her part to come in?! Preach Jamel!!👏🏼👍💙✌️
This song came out when I was in high school and MTV didn't suck, thanks for CPRing good, old memories lol
Beautiful sounds in that time. Jam and Lewis - superb. Jamel, as usual, spot on.
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis went in with their flawless production on this ThrowBack Jam!!!
Thanks fir taking my request. Honest reaction
More than one couple has experimented with other folks. So, while the lyrics may not be ideal, they are accurate for some. That being said, the melody and groove are fire!!
I agree. Lyrics aside, this is still one of the most beautiful songs from the 80's.
Have loved that song since I heard it for the first time! The British boyband Five has a cover of this song and my teenage self was in la la land when they released it back in the day. Good times...
Your reaction to some of these videos are spot on but hilarious at the same time lol

While we were apart...I was human too..cmon man...it's OK to cheat?.....Jamal? Did you hear that?!!!!
Love this song, one of my favortites and love your reaction when the girl says "While we were apart I was human too"
I don't think it's an official sample but the beat of "If It Isn't Love" by New Edition does sound pretty similar, now that you point it out.
Yup, was gonna say this. Scrolled through first to see if someone already said it.
That's because Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis produced both records. No sampling with these cats. I mean they sample but rarely they do.
@@CHICAGOWIND1981 I didn't know they produced this one. Good info. Thanks.
Bring back New Edition!
Dude, the expression on your face is priceless! 🤣
Still one of my fav groups in the 80’s! I still play this music, and my kids listen to the 80’s now 👍💕
Wow!!! Ok, I couldn't wait to see this, cause I've LOVED this song since I was 16, but... AMAZING reaction!!!

One great song. Jamal , you will love this.
We were on a break!!! “Ross” lol
I had kinda forgot about this track.... and, this was a track that I used to crank up all the time in the car. Still love it.

LOVE your reaction to this I was waiting for u to hear her part...
They were seperated at the time that BOTH of them made a mistake. Such a great song.

We 80s kids was waiting 😂
The thing about this song is he was married to his high school for about 2 years then he had an on and off fling with the dark haired girl in the group. They still remain friends to this day along with being in the group also.
This was so funny because I was waiting for that other shoe to drop and I knew it was coming and to see Jamel’s face. 😂
The look on your face is priceless lol, I was waiting to see when you understood the song
