    "Donna" was a huge hit for Ritchie Valens. Also, when you reviewed the song "La Bamba" - that was not Ritchie Valens - that was Los Lobos (from the movie - "La Bamba"). You should react to "La Bamba" again, this time with Ritchie Valens (real name Valenzuela).

  • @debrawilson9791
    @debrawilson9791 2 місяці тому +1

    Such a great soulful voice for such a young guy. He was only 17 when the song became a hit. You need to check out the movie La Bamba. It’s the story of his life and when he died in a plane crash with Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper. It’s a wonderful movie.

  • @frankticasdroppinknowledge2363
    @frankticasdroppinknowledge2363 2 місяці тому +5

    Don McLean's song "American Pie"' makes mention of the Day The Music Died, which was how the media called the day of the fatal crash. "Oh Donna", "La Bamba", and "Come On Let's Go" are his greatest hits. He was also one of, if not the first, Latin Rock and Roll singer to hit the charts, along with Santo and Johnny, Sam The Sham and The Paharoahs, and Question Mark and The Mysterians. Great reaction guys!

    You can see hear the 40s swing music in rock and roll. You can hear Irish and Scottish folk music in rock and roll, you can hear church music in blues. Stairway to Heaven has strains that are reminiscent of early English minstrel muksic. So it goes on. Look at architecture and how many buildings have the fluted columns and architecture from the classical era. Look at your White House. Art, music and even human behaviour often borrows from the past.

    The song American pie yes by Don McLean was written in commemoration of the plane crash that killed Ritchie Valens The Big Bopper and Buddy Holly in 1959 a tragedy as Ritchie Valens was still in high school
    it was sad that he was quite fearful of planes but he was also sick with a bad cold or flu from riding on a tour bus from town to town it was constantly breaking down and was ice cold people actually suffering frostbite thank you for playing his music he truly had come far from the poor Mexican kid I believe he was from Pacoima could be wrong

And knowing he died young and was torn from his Donna that he loved makes it twice as tragic. You know he sang these songs thinking of his girl.

    This was on his first album 1959. It was a cover of a top 40 song released a year earlier by Robert & Johnny, which was when I first heard the song.
    I thought Valens did an excellent job on this one, but I do have a slight preference for the original. Of course it's a duet and more of a doowop arrangement, so it's hard to compare the two.

  • @helgar791

They also have a video for their new song Hell you call a Dream, live @ the Pepsi center 2023. You have been warned by Musik reactors jeremy and jillian.

    Hi Jay & Amber, yes unfortunately we lost Richie, Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper and the pilot on 2/3/1959, a good one by Buddy is Down the Line with Bob Montgomery

    Always loved this beautiful song, Ritchie had a beautiful voice, so sad that he died at such a young age.
    This song was used in a movie called Christine 1983 a movie I highly recommend you check out guys. 😎👌📽️🍿🎸

    The Ritchie Valens version is very good, but the original version in 1958 by Robert & Johnny was awesome.

    I love this song, but this is my first time hearing it by him. The more famous version is sung by a male duo (don't know the name) singing lead and harmony. Great song. I need to see you react to, as someone already suggested in the comments, "Shake Rattle and Roll" by Big Joe Turner, but also "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby" by Louis Jordan.

    This is so cool. I have never heard Ritchie Valens' cover of this song. I'm very familiar with the 1958 original version written and recorded by Robert and John. How beautiful is Ritchie's voice here. Absolutely stunning. I picture couples slow dancing together to this song.

    I knew nothing about Ritchie Valens prior to the La Bamba film. He is now legendary. His voice is haunting. Love that 50s mono stereo sound. Timeless.

    Another very late 50's and then 60's teen idol I don't think you've done is Bobby Vee. Very popular! He actually filled in at the age of 15 for a concert right after the plane crash that killed Holly, Valens, and The Big Bopper. He also was a help with a very young Bob Dylan. Recommend "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes'", "Take Good Care of My Baby", and "Come Back When You Grow Up".

    When you reacted to the song "La Bamba", you actually watched the version from the movie with Lou Diamond Phillips playing Ritchie Valens. You should definitely watch the movie (it's very good) and also react to the original song. Keep up the good work, you guys are a lot of fun to watch.

    Richie was only 17. Just starting off. So sad. Next week I’m heading to the Surf Ballroom where he performed for the last time. Then going to the crash site where him, Buddy Holly and Big Bopper tragically lost their lives 😢

    50's suggestion - "Why Do Fools Fall In Love?" by Frankie Lymon And The Teenagers. Maybe check out Diana Ross's 1981 cover of the song too.

    First let me say, you guys are, this almost 60 yr old Rock n Rollers favorite reaction couple. You are both genuinely beautiful people. Thank you very much for a very very enjoyable channel. Ritchie and Buddy were great song writers and excellent guitarists, had they lived they would've ruled the 60's. It was a massive blow to Rock n Roll when they left us.... ✌❤🙂

    I live about a about a mile from the house Ritchie bought for his mother with his music $$$ Pacoima Jr High was renamed RV Middle School & He is more than a legend in my Town! Pacoima has produced an excessive amount of talented studio musicians and touring bands for such a tiny speck of NE Los Angeles. If you pick up an instrument in front of players in PACAS!!! Be ready to be called out on your chops by gangsters!!!! Ritchie's ghost looms large here!

    Love this pick, glad you guys got to enjoy it. A couple of related anecdotes I’ve heard of the plane tragedy, you guys may have heard too-a young Bob Dylan saw Buddy Holly at his last performance score the crash,and also a young DJ -Waylon Jennings-gave up his plane seat to the big bopper…
