This song came on at Trader Joe's the other day, and I was singing along. A lady next to me said, "OMG, I HATE this song and you're singing it!" I almost hit her with a frozen bag of salmon!!!
I was in a TJ’s too when Elton John’s song came on in San Francisco. A shopper heard me say “I can’t stand this song” and responded, “I really like it.”
I am a born metal-head, but I love this stuff. "Cool Change" is my favorite Little River Band song. Songs like this are for sitting in the billowing fragrance of the green.
The Midnight Special was our weekly fix for those of us too young to go to concerts! Love Little River Band & your enjoyment of all songs from the 70’s 🤗
Oh yes , I do remember the MNS. That show had so many great artists of that era on its program. We had so much great artists and music in that era. 2nd 2 none. 4-sure.🎼🎼🎼🇺🇸
Yet the original band cannot get together under the LRB name, as one of the guys that joined the band later, not original, kept active. So now he owns the rights to LRB, not an original member in it.
mattyone78 yep and that so sucks and he goes around America playing their hits and saying they are LRB and people are believing it so sad.. saw a video when the people found out they weren’t the original they were disgusted they were making out they were the real deal 😠
@@aussiekat6379 Some of us Americans are hardcore LRB fans and we know the current line-up is nothing more than a covers band. Their constant rearrangements of the classic hits are as bad as their generic original songs. My LRB collection stops with Get Lucky and the current band I call Little River Bland.
"Reminiscing" is my favorite LRB song; loved it since it first came out (yeah, I'm old). I hear that opening & I immediately fall down a big ol' nostalgia hole.
Love how this song mentions the Glenn Miller Band. Wonder how many younger people know who he was? It was before my time too but he was an important part of American musical history. He was the bestselling recording artist of the early 40's. Bandleader & trombonist (love how the horn section came in when they mentioned him), in World War II his plane disappeared over the English Channel as he was on his way to entertain American troupes in France. Terrible tragedy but he left a great musical legacy. "In the Mood" is a good example. Most people would recognize it.💙
Big on Glenn Miller my mom sang with big bands back in the day And sang with Nat King Cole and Billie Holiday. Glenn was from my state colorado.A little town Ft.Morgan colorado kinda there clam to fame. I'm older than you obviously.Like my kids had to endure my music.I endured my mom's and ended up having a love and appreciation for it. 60s,70s and 80s are my favorite of course old 50s rock and blues. Like food,music is a uniter If we'd all have community potlucks sharing food and music Sharing our cultural differences we'd all find out how much similarity we have. That's how you get fusion like how Carlos Santana blended and ELO blended theirs with classical.
I grew up loving the Glenn Miller Band. I still have a lot of his music. My parents were big fans and the movie the Glenn Miller Story was so incredible.
@@carmenjones5528 What a great comment! That's so interesting about your mom. Did she get to be on any recordings? I had a great-aunt who danced with Rudolph Valentino, but that's about it. You might not be older than me. We have the same favorite musical eras. I was a child when The Beatles burst onto the world stage. Then grew up through my teens listening to all the great bands of the British Invasion, blues, Motown artists. 60's & 70's were like a musical Renaissance. I was always going to concerts. Saw Hendrix live 2 months before he died, got some good photos. Saw Led Zeppelin 3 times. Elvis twice. So many greats. Most recently, Queen in Nashville last summer. Never got to see them when Freddie was alive but Brian May & Roger Taylor are still fantastic & it was truly wonderful. All ages enjoying their music together. Magical. Your idea about community potlucks, sharing food & music, is such a great idea. Wish it was a common occurrence all over the country & the world. We'd all be the better for it.💙
True that, but mad props to John Farnham, a more than capable fill-in for his short stint! Gee, this may start a lead singer debate on a par with the Genesis Peter Gabriel/Phil Collins debate! Woo-hoo!
@@markgriffin4888 Oh, no doubt! What makes this such a curious situation, though, is John had many years of success prior to his brief LRB stint, and decades of it after! It'd be like asking James Taylor or Andy Williams to fill in!
I grew up on this music! Born in 71 and have two older brothers who are 8 and 9 years older than me. They saved up their money to buy albums all the time. Great times and good memories.
I also got the benefit of growing up with older brothers and sisters (7 years) and being exposed to a broader range of music than many of my fellow ‘69ers.
My football bro from High School's mom used to dance to this music and this song specifically when she would make us dinner at their home in Olney. She called it "steppin" and "bumpin" and taught this white boy how to impress the young ladies on the dance floor. What an awesome cook and Mom and woman she was. Miss you Momma J.
This song is almost perfection in songwriting. From the lyrics to the arrangement to the vocal performances and the entire execution of the song. Just an amazing song period!
This is the original group. Sharrock, Birtles and Goble. Been others since, but you cant beat these guys. Highly praised by the Eagles for their fantastic harmony.
This is the right voice. This is the theme of what the song is about, the vibe you're supposed to get reminiscing about those nights with your loved one. It's not about vocal acrobatics and mindless amusement. The mood is supposed to be foggy like a memory, and this brassy and classy sound and vocals is what fits. It's a masterpiece. The other vocalist is tremendously talented, just totally missing the feel of this song. This guy, Glenn (?) is a huge part of why the original radio cut was so big and gave us images in our mind of a past love.
I miss my uncle when I hear this era of music🥺cause of him I was exposed to this beautiful music at such an early age and can reminisce of my childhood memories❤️
First listened to this song when I was 17. The middle of the night. So smooth, so cool. Now I'm 61, still feels the same. Thank you, my Aussie Brothers. Greetings from Canada.
OMG! It’s 2022 & I was in Walgreens and heard this song that used to play over 43yrs ago on the radio when I was a kid! Tracked it down and can’t stop playing it! Beautiful a song that brings so much joy! 😍
Great song. Both great singers, but different and each brought their own polish to it. I prefer this one, but to each there own! This one is smooth and sultry, the other is upbeat and enthusiastic.
We didn't want to have a traditional "first dance" at our wedding since we'd been together for almost 15 years, so this was the first song that the DJ played and invited everybody up on the dance floor with us.
This was our wedding reception song in 1978.... And we are now reminiscing after 42 years and still going strong in our love for each other...Great song and band...
I'm from the Dominican Republic, and i I was 21 and let me tell you, that song was a hit at my country. God bless you Jamel, good memories for my soul.
lockandloadshari Lol.....and don’t forget smack dab in the middle of these great songs they stopped to do the Hokey Pokey in every skating rink across the USA! 😂🤣.
Supposedly he thought of May Pang with this song. According to her they continued their relationship after him and Yoko got back together and they had Sean.
Glenn Shorrock (lead singer) along with Beeb Burtles and Graham Goble are the voices / harmonies of Little River Band. The band was named after Little River, a place near Geelong in Victoria, Australia . John Farnham took over the lead vocals after Glenn Shorrock left the band in the early 1980s.
You're tearing out my heart! These songs from my preteens and teenage years. They made this girl dream of romance and innocent love...but then life smacked me in the face. It brings tears to my eyes. Thank you sooooo much for allowing me to relive those times!
So glad you were able to view the studio/recorded version of this song. The concert version with the other lead was definitely more lively, but this original lead is def smoother, my preference, I couldn't agree more with you, man!
Another great Aussie band. Thank you for bringing so many memories back for me. My hubby is now telling me "play that one, now that one." So many of our favourite songs and bands all in one place. We are loving it.👍👍
Check out Dr. Hook, "Sylvia's Mother." It was written by poet Shel Silverstein (The Giving Tree) who actually hosted the band on his houseboat and played harmonica in the video.
Best Aussie band ever. Went to the states and killed em. That's the original band. Glenn Shorrock stepped down and John Farnham took over. John the showman verses Glenn mister smooth. Please check out some of their other stuff.
One of the best soft rock songs ever made. People don't make songs with this type of melody and harmony anymore. Song came out the year I was born, but it was still hugely popular several years later, and recall hearing it on the radio when I was a little kid.
They’re legends here in Oz, they paved the way for so many Oz groups. They put in the long miles of travel and years on the road, they’re fabulous guys. I’m so glad the world fell for them too🤗 Glad you loved this!❤️
Masterpiece of vocals, production, instruments and writing. Lots of nostalgia from radio on road trips as a kid...and K-tel Albums. You appreciate it with honesty. Always a blast to watch
Yeah I remember watching The Midnight Special as a youngster. Maybe 8 or 10 years old. Back in the late seventies. I love those times. The music was very Soulful grooving and meaningful. And it's great enjoying this together with many other people and yourself. The world to use a lot more of this type of activity. And not just over the phone. Let's get real again everyone. Love is the answer :-)
Little River Band is a rockin' bunch of rock and rollers, or was, last time I had their greatest hits ! Great selection, try "It's a long way there" . You are my fave D.J. right now 🗽🌎🎖️ !
You just threw me back to the 70's riding in the back of a pinto station wagon. These voices are so nostalgic...the lead singer is a crooner ..good song!!
Love me some LRB. I was going to recommend you go back to Sweet and do "Fox on the Run. Instead I'm going to recommend The Cars. "Just What I Needed", "Moving In Stereo", "Let's Go", "Dangerous Type", "Bye Bye Love", "You're All I've Got Tonight, "Good Times Roll". Any or all of them would be great choices.
Yes! The Cars and Let's Go is my favorite of theirs. More Foreigner, please!!! They have so many hits you can't go wrong. Just make sure it was the originals with Lou Gram as lead singer. He has super curly hair. The dude singing with them now has dark straight hair.
I can tell you’ve become a Little River Band fan! I’m 55, so I was fortunate to grow up with this group, and even getting to see them in concert! You need to do a reaction video to; It’s A Long Way There. Another awesome song done by this group!
@@douglaswerner8334 Definitely in my Top 5. Others would be Mama Let Em Play by Doucette, Blinded by the Light - Manfred Mann, Cars by Gary Numan, Life in a Northern Town - Dream Academy

Mr. Jamel,. We need a Teddy Swims Rabbit Hole!!! H does an incredible version of What's Going On and If You Don't Love Me......

This song came on at Trader Joe's the other day, and I was singing along. A lady next to me said, "OMG, I HATE this song and you're singing it!" I almost hit her with a frozen bag of salmon!!!
😂🤣
How can anyone hate this masterpiece!?
Love this song. The most romantic song ever.
@@roxannefebuary6823 romantic or not. This sing makes you reminisce the best nights youve ever had
I was in a TJ’s too when Elton John’s song came on in San Francisco. A shopper heard me say “I can’t stand this song” and responded, “I really like it.”
John Lennon heard this song on the radio and he absolutely loved it
Is that a story he told?
@@leoray1234 not likely.
@@leoray1234 his girlfriend at the time (when John and Yoko separated for a few years) has since mentioned it, stating it was 'their' song.

Long Way There is my favorite.
That song inspired me to buy my first boat.
#FACTS! Cool Change is freakin' awesome!
@@YhwhKhaiMostHigh Cool Change is one of my favourite songs. Just so smooth and perfect
This is the original version with Glenn. This song was their hit.
Sorry Ned, I tried to hit the thumbs up and the down one lit up and can't change it. Thumb up for your comment. It is now corrected.
ONE of their HITS ;-)
Glenn Shorrock, great voice!
@@Mirrorgirl492 Yes, they had many but I had an Idea that it was their first that launched them world wide.
What happened to Glenn, why did they change?
The Midnight Special was our weekly fix for those of us too young to go to concerts!
Love Little River Band & your enjoyment of all songs from the 70’s 🤗

Glenn Shorrock. I am a death metal & hardcore fiend & all I can say he has a once-in-a-generation voice. Pure. Kia kaha \m/
I was 21 that year, I will tell you, the ladies melted over this band! Glen was just as you said, SMOOOOOOTH.
Me too
Iwa one of them. Still am! Just listened to this yesterday! Jamel is a cool cat himself!
If a dude dances with a dudette to this song, action was sure to happen.
Much better. This is the REAL Little River Band. Love this sound.

Moonlight Serenade.
I grew up loving the Glenn Miller Band. I still have a lot of his music. My parents were big fans and the movie the Glenn Miller Story was so incredible.

made us dance across the room..."

Yes! This is how it's supposed to sound... Glenn Shorrock! Thank you....
Sorry, but I prefer John Farnham
Hey Jamal - this was wonderful!
Thank you so much for watching the original Glenn Shorrock version. Hope that you enjoyed this as much as we did. 👋🇦🇺
Man, so many memories . . . this came out in 1978, when I graduated from High School. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This is the right voice. This is the theme of what the song is about, the vibe you're supposed to get reminiscing about those nights with your loved one. It's not about vocal acrobatics and mindless amusement.
The mood is supposed to be foggy like a memory, and this brassy and classy sound and vocals is what fits. It's a masterpiece.

Yes you can. John Farham can outsing Glenn
Yup, perfect song to snuggle with your cat!😅
I miss my uncle when I hear this era of music🥺cause of him I was exposed to this beautiful music at such an early age and can reminisce of my childhood memories❤️
I love smooth rock and roll from the 70's!!! This song is on my phone's playlist along with "Moonlight Feels Right " by Starbuck.
I know Moonlight Feels Right is coming soon. I play these songs together evry morning wih my grand daughter.
glen had a magical voice and was a wonderful entertainer...actually all of them rocked......one of the greatest bands of all time 🔥🔥

I ran a spotlight on one of their shows back in '82 or so. They were really great. Those guys came to play!
Ok, the world is at peace again and the planet's have realigned. Thanks for this proper version.

Listening to this while 'dragging' Main Street in my hometown back in the day. Thanks for the great memories from these songs.
Wooow, GEEEE I can remember all of us waiting for this to come on .MIDNIGHT SPECIAL OH YEAH.
Well said,, Glenn was super smooth these guys had some serious vocal chops
Jamal try some of The Babys (isn't it time) you'll love the back up sooo 70s
Yeeeees!
Turn, and walk away is an AWESOME Baby's song!! Great job as always Jamal!!
Yes, yes, yes. John’s voice is right up my alley, plus the catchy tunes, and other vocalists.
Start with Union Jack And then, I'm back on my feet again
God I love them!
I love this song so much. Smooth. Lovely. If you’re not singing along, your heart has ceased to beat.
“We Two” is an excellent song of theirs where the lead singer’s range is ridiculous. You will love it. Promise.
You just threw me back to the 70's riding in the back of a pinto station wagon. These voices are so nostalgic...the lead singer is a crooner ..good song!!
Love me some LRB. I was going to recommend you go back to Sweet and do "Fox on the Run. Instead I'm going to recommend The Cars. "Just What I Needed", "Moving In Stereo", "Let's Go", "Dangerous Type", "Bye Bye Love", "You're All I've Got Tonight, "Good Times Roll". Any or all of them would be great choices.
Yes please, The Cars! And all of those songs you mentioned were off their first two albums. THE favorite band of my youth.
Yes! The Cars and Let's Go is my favorite of theirs. More Foreigner, please!!! They have so many hits you can't go wrong. Just make sure it was the originals with Lou Gram as lead singer. He has super curly hair. The dude singing with them now has dark straight hair.
My favorite song by them. Beautifully arranged.
Thank you so much for fixing this one brother!
I can tell you’ve become a Little River Band fan! I’m 55, so I was fortunate to grow up with this group, and even getting to see them in concert! You need to do a reaction video to; It’s A Long Way There. Another awesome song done by this group!
Sniff ‘n’ the Tears- Driver’s Seat!
Soon m8 lol
YES !!!! Great childhood memories riding the bumper cars in Vienna as a child listening to this in 1978 !!
My favorite one hit wonder.
Tarnay Spencer Group - No Time To Lose
@@douglaswerner8334 Definitely in my Top 5. Others would be Mama Let Em Play by Doucette, Blinded by the Light - Manfred Mann, Cars by Gary Numan, Life in a Northern Town - Dream Academy
One of the best songs ever. Smoooth. Great harmonies.. melody is so solid and memorable.
Not one of their big hits, but “It’s A Long Way There” is a good one and has some great guitar work.
I’ve been watching this channel ALL DAY. Soundtrack of a lifetime!
