This song is one that is deeply embedded in my mind. This was very popular throughout the mid to late 60s and into the 70s. Every Sunday morning, our family would load up in the station wagon and tow my father's 1955 Nomad to the Englishtown Raceway in New Jersey. We children would know we were close to the track as we came to a hill, followed by a bend in the road towards the left. Just before that hill was a huge house that was beautiful, that several black families lived in together. We used to call it the House of the Rising Sun because the song often played during our drive to the racetrack. Every Sunday morning, most of the family members living there would be on the porch drinking coffee and stand up and cheer and wave to us as my dad honked the horn passing by. One Sunday morning, we crested that hill and saw shoke. Everyone that lived there was outside looking, watching their home burn to the ground. My pops turned in there for the first time ever. Needless to say, dad didn't race that day.
one thing I wanna say is I really like that you don't just do a reaction and move on. you revisit songs to introduce others around you to these great tunes , exposing them to music that otherwise could one day be lost. my generation thanks you !by remembering our music you remember us!
Sadly we miss every 20 first seconds of every reaction. Don't understand why he like to not show the first 20sec of reaction ... We miss every 20first impression because he don't show face expression at the Beginning
The story goes that they recorded this song, an old US folk song covered by many other artists, so they had something different to play, other than the usual blues covers, when they were supporting US bluesmen on UK tours, now it's, arguably, the definitive version of this song. Interestingly the big guy playing bass, Chas Chandler, was the one who brought Jimi Hendrix to the UK after seeing him play a small club in New York, he became his manager and put together his backing band the "Experience" present on all his earlier recordings. Singer Eric Burdon was a close friend of Hendrix and was first on the scene after Hendrix' girl friend found him lifeless in their London apartment.
His appearance and voice come from growing up on the tough streets of Newcastle upon Tyne, NE England. An industrial city: shipbuilding, heavy engineering, coal mining... not short on pollution.
The one band mate was smiling at his other band mate on the keyboard. They were moving him, while still playing, from next to the drummer into position in front of the lead singer. 😄🎹🎶🎶🎶👏🏻
Loving this, Mr and Mrs Reactions. Keep it coming, there is a whole world of music out there to discover. You have only scratched the surface. Great job.
This is my #3. Loved this song for decades. Eric wanted the vid to appear serious, the rest of the band said "OK" with a big smile. Good catch on the gum.
Your wife was so right about the chewing gum. As many times as I’ve watched this video cause i absolutely love this song, I’ve never noticed that. She has an eagle eye. 💯💕🕊
This song is a US folk song that sings about a woman who ends up in a bothel in New Orleans. How the Animals found this song and adapted it is beyond me!
The big smile at the end, is because the organ was being moved from the back of the set (at the drummers left) to the front of the set. My bet would be a couple of stage hands hustling the equipment around during the song.
I love watching the two of you share songs - even better when they are from artists with who you aren’t familiar, although the song might be. Have you watched the movie Cars with your kids? ‘Life is a Highway’ was written in 1991 by a great Canadian singer-songwriter, Tom Cochrane - also a great video - long before Rascal Flatts covered it for the movie. A much more positive story behind it, and worth sharing.
The guitarist (the late Hilly Valentine) was laughing at all the action he saw going on in the monitors. He said it was funny seeing that he had just gone in a complete circle. Also, the tall bassist (the late Chaz Chandler) was also a manager and record producer, and discovered Jimi Hendrix and the band Slade.
Song was sung by a woman, about a brothel. The great Leadbelly recorded it with his wife singing the lyrics. Leadbelly had worked in a brothel . Check out Leadbelly. George Harrison said " No Leadbelly no Beattles."
I love how none of the electric instruments are plugged into anything!😂 I think it’s a performance on the Ed Sullivan show. This was before everything went wireless and batteries.
Eric Burton vocal.chas Chandler bass.hilton Valentine guitar.john Steele drums.alan price keyboard.chas and Hilton are gone.alan left the group in the mid 60$. Eric still performs. This was done in one take
I love the keyboards on this song. For some reason, I just get the impression that this song is lip synced--maybe not. Has been a great song for years. Moms always catch gum chewers lol.
Dear Sir, Onr song you should check out is DOA from Bloodrock their album titled Bloodrock 2. Also from the Righteous Brothers the songs "You' ve Lost Tht Loving Feeling", "Soul and Inspiration", or even "Rock 'N' Roll Heaven".They all feature both singers together.
Fun Fact#1.. this was the first British Invasion song that the greasers in my neighbourhood liked (guys who were slow letting go of their slicked back hair, and pointy shoes, and resistant to changing to a Beatle haircut)... they liked Eric Burdon and the other Animals because they looked and sounded a little nasty Fun Fact #2.. the keyboard player, Alan Price, is in the 1967 documentary of Bob Dylan's 1965 tour of the UK called Don't Look Back, but not in a good way... he is stinking drunk, and Dylan gets a complaint from the hotel that someone threw a glass out of his hotel room window onto the street, and Dylan is told it was Price and/or his group of friends, and Dylan throws him out... ua-cam.com/video/OP9ArKYGvD4/v-deo.html ... how cool is that, getting under Bob Dylan's skin, lol!
Having your lady join you brought to mind a group popular when I was in high school marching band. Check out This Guy's in Love with You, by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.
They are dressed like the Beatles did back then (and they are both British), but our man Eric Burdon has that scruffy look which is like the song and the content.
How can anyone stop watching True Blood 😮😂 it comes back around after season i didn't like which is when everyone's eyes got black and such but I agree, totally can see this in the show! Definitely has the southern soul that would fit into LA
Love the Mr and Mrs reactions. Taking you down different music avenue, Would love to see you do reaction to Andrea and Matteo Bocelli “Fall on Me”. First song for his son at age 21. Original video ua-cam.com/video/ChcR2gKt5WM/v-deo.htmlsi=vGNxg1dEqjEVZ1xW Live video ua-cam.com/video/tKVb7QuInOU/v-deo.htmlsi=yUyQBcKWpi8VzpbA
@ if reaction not possible, as new parents I think you will truly enjoy it ❤️ Italian verse: Soon you will find what your heart wants to know Don’t give up hope for I know you are close All you have ever dreamed, wished you could ever be Is waiting to find you wherever you go Believe in yourself every step that you take Know I am smiling with pride everyday My love will forever be stronger than stone Don’t be afraid you are never alone
@@BlackPegasusRaps another amazing collaboration is Ed Sheeran Perfect Symphony with Andrea Bocelli. Ed flew to Andrea house in Italy and they recorded in one day. Ed wanted to re release a diff version of his song and asked Andrea. ua-cam.com/video/eiDiKwbGfIY/v-deo.html
The song is NOT being sung live, and since artist of the time considered lip syncing to be bad they would often signal in some way that they WEREN'T singing live, like chewing gum!
Let's get you back on some good country music - It's been too long - Here are several for you to pick from - Rascal Flatts - What Hurts The Most - you are sharp enough to see what's going on, most reactors miss is - and it drives me crazy. Tim McGraw - here are two great ones to pick from, both have great messages : Live Like You Were Dying. or Humble and Kind - the titles tell you everything. Tim has a huge catalog of amazing music - he performs several great ones with his talented and beautiful Wife - Faith Hill Motivational- Carrie Under with Luda - Champion ( official video ) I had also suggested to you an amazing cover along with the Original - you should view them back to back to see what an outstanding cover it truly is. Believe by Cher ( not the Brooks & Dunn song) Cher released her song Believe in 1989 it's techno - it was the first song to ever use auto tune - in 2019 Adam Lambert covered the same song honoring Cher at the Kennedy Honors- it is beyond words. Adam Lambert was a runner up on American Idol - he has since become the front man for Queen - filling in for the Great Freddie Mercury
Wife like Vampires.... check out Versailles Revenant Choir official music video... The band mermbers are Baroque Era Vampires who wear French Rococo inspired outfits.
The lead singer is a 23 year old with a face of a 13 year and the Voice of a 40 year old 😅So unique. Great reaction guys and Peace out ☮️ ✌️ 🙏
That is the single best description of the lead singer and you are spot on. 💯🕊💕
Greatest thing about the song. It was recorded in one take. Took a total of about 15 minutes and done.
This song is one that is deeply embedded in my mind. This was very popular throughout the mid to late 60s and into the 70s. Every Sunday morning, our family would load up in the station wagon and tow my father's 1955 Nomad to the Englishtown Raceway in New Jersey.

Needless to say, dad didn't race that day.
Wow
It’s so nice to see you and your wife doing reactions together!❤
Beautiful wife.....glad we got to meet her and hope to see her again soon❤
one thing I wanna say is I really like that you don't just do a reaction and move on. you revisit songs to introduce others around you to these great tunes , exposing them to music that otherwise could one day be lost. my generation thanks you !by remembering our music you remember us!

To me one of the most iconic songs of the 60s - and never ever again in such authentic intensity in later times.
The story goes that they recorded this song, an old US folk song covered by many other artists, so they had something different to play, other than the usual blues covers, when they were supporting US bluesmen on UK tours, now it's, arguably, the definitive version of this song.

Are you saying all Geordies are loud mouth gobshites 😂
*Pegasus REAL FANS ARE YOU HERE ?! 💖✨*
The one band mate was smiling at his other band mate on the keyboard. They were moving him, while still playing, from next to the drummer into position in front of the lead singer. 😄🎹🎶🎶🎶👏🏻
I was born in the late '70s, this is something I grew up listening to, because this is what my parents listened to ❤
Eric Burdon was 23 years old when he sang this song. He has had a long history of great songs.
To look at him you would never think that voice would come out of him.
Loving this, Mr and Mrs Reactions. Keep it coming, there is a whole world of music out there to discover. You have only scratched the surface. Great job.
This is my #3. Loved this song for decades. Eric wanted the vid to appear serious, the rest of the band said "OK" with a big smile. Good catch on the gum.

Great song. Great band. The big guy (Chas Chandler) on the bass guitar later "discovered" Jimi Hendrix and became his manager.
It’s WONDERFUL that you have your wife on! WTG!
This song is a US folk song that sings about a woman who ends up in a bothel in New Orleans. How the Animals found this song and adapted it is beyond me!
Probably heard Bob Dylan's version, three years earlier.
@davidmoor8096 it's actually about a boy
It actually about a black tar heroine den
Thank you SO Very much for doin’ your thing! I enjoy every single viewing. SHOUT OUT TO YOUR WIFE!
I also enjoy it when you both are reacting. I agree with your wife about True Blood, it did get crazy.
This has been my ringtone for years.
It may take a few listens, but eventually the seductively creepy vibe takes you over. Not hearing this misses the essence of the song. Masterpiece.
Learned to play guitar because of this one, an easy chord composition!
This is why music is so magical
The big smile at the end, is because the organ was being moved from the back of the set (at the drummers left) to the front of the set. My bet would be a couple of stage hands hustling the equipment around during the song.
She's got a sharp eye. I've never heard any other reactor point out the gum-chewing.
Hello wifey, always good to see ya both.
..."Class of 76"...Singer Eric Burdon was 21 here...
They’re walking around reminds me of a jazz funeral procession in New Orleans
I was 15 when this song came out. It was one of the loudest songs of the time. Good thing. It was perfect for AM radio.
I love watching the two of you share songs - even better when they are from artists with who you aren’t familiar, although the song might be. Have you watched the movie Cars with your kids? ‘Life is a Highway’ was written in 1991 by a great Canadian singer-songwriter, Tom Cochrane - also a great video - long before Rascal Flatts covered it for the movie. A much more positive story behind it, and worth sharing.
That keyboard solo 🔥
You brought your wife on to react to a song about a man going to a brothel? Brave man!
Watch Eric Burdon sing this today, He still got it.
I've seen this video many many times. Never noticed the drummer was chewing gum!
The guitarist (the late Hilly Valentine) was laughing at all the action he saw going on in the monitors. He said it was funny seeing that he had just gone in a complete circle.
Also, the tall bassist (the late Chaz Chandler) was also a manager and record producer, and discovered Jimi Hendrix and the band Slade.
@7:31 cute overload.
As much as I've loved this version from The Animals over the years, the brand new "Epic Dark Version" from Erik Grönwall is now my favorite.
Love ya both.
Song was sung by a woman, about a brothel. The great Leadbelly recorded it with his wife singing the lyrics. Leadbelly had worked in a brothel . Check out Leadbelly. George Harrison said " No Leadbelly no Beattles."
This song was used toward the end of the movie "Casino" with Robert DeNiro and Joe Pesci.
Love this song. The animals were a great group. Maybe they're still are I don't know. Love seeing your wife react
That tall bass player was Jimmy Hendrix's manager.
Could hardly hear your wife’s comments. Turn up her Mike!! Lol
I love how none of the electric instruments are plugged into anything!😂 I think it’s a performance on the Ed Sullivan show. This was before everything went wireless and batteries.
Play Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood for her!
Joe Cocker does a great version of this too
the brilliant alan price on the hammond organ
Eric should have blown a quick bubble during the organ solo.
Eric Burton vocal.chas Chandler bass.hilton Valentine guitar.john Steele drums.alan price keyboard.chas and Hilton are gone.alan left the group in the mid 60$. Eric still performs. This was done in one take
Great song! Love your channel! From 60 year old woman that loves Grateful Dead and Tupac!
Great song, another band did a cover of this song in 1970, Frijid Pink, i actually like it a bit more than the original
I ❤️ the Animals. I bet you would also love this song by Five Finger Death Punch. They do an amazing job of singing this song also.
There are tons of covers that are very good! Hard rock covers are cool but my fave is Dolly Parton 😁
The guy playing the bass guitar discovered a promising young guitarist you may have heard of…..Jimi Hendrix
I love the keyboards on this song. For some reason, I just get the impression that this song is lip synced--maybe not. Has been a great song for years. Moms always catch gum chewers lol.
I think this was on Ed Sullivan show, they had rules when rock bands played on tv
Dear Sir,

Big tune, my uncle,e requests when, hitting the sauce. Not too do what I have doneeeeeeee
The Frigid Pink version of this song is worth a listen. Think you will be surprised
❤ have albums awesome 👍👍😎
I realize they were just walking through playing the song for the video, but they could have at least plugged in the keyboards.
I’m happy to see you with wifie
The sixties great music
How can anyone stop watching True Blood 😮😂 it comes back around after season i didn't like which is when everyone's eyes got black and such but I agree, totally can see this in the show! Definitely has the southern soul that would fit into LA
That was a great song
You should definitely listen to "Monterey" by them
Love the Mr and Mrs reactions. Taking you down different music avenue, Would love to see you do reaction to Andrea and Matteo Bocelli “Fall on Me”. First song for his son at age 21. Original video ua-cam.com/video/ChcR2gKt5WM/v-deo.htmlsi=vGNxg1dEqjEVZ1xW
Live video ua-cam.com/video/tKVb7QuInOU/v-deo.htmlsi=yUyQBcKWpi8VzpbA
thank you so much for the extra support!. I will see if I can react to one of these videos. No promises, but thanks again.
@ if reaction not possible, as new parents I think you will truly enjoy it ❤️
Italian verse:
Soon you will find what your heart wants to know
Don’t give up hope for I know you are close
All you have ever dreamed, wished you could ever be
Is waiting to find you wherever you go
Believe in yourself every step that you take
Know I am smiling with pride everyday
My love will forever be stronger than stone
Don’t be afraid you are never alone

U both should react to more music from the 60s!! 🙌🫶
Alan Price on keyboards. Check him out.
Try their version of Inside Looking Out. I think you've already commented on this song performed by Grand Funk Railroad.
She’s a keeper you need to introduce her to Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Simple Man
You got to bring the wife and do Aldious Dominator live Radiant A at O East.
Hi Mrs Pegasus don't worry, this song will perk you up!!☕
Educate Mrs. P Mr. Pegasus
There you are, Leadsinger Eric Burdon, is ‘The Eggman’ referred in ‘I am the Walrus,’ by the Beatles. I’ll let you look up why he is the eggman.
I think they used this song in True Blood, took place in New Orleans
her mic needs to be closer to her so we can hear her better
Women notice things like the gum chewing. 😂
Were the guitars and keyboard electric? With no cords?
Did you notice that none of the instruments are plugged in?
❤❤❤
The song is NOT being sung live, and since artist of the time considered lip syncing to be bad they would often signal in some way that they WEREN'T singing live, like chewing gum!
I don't usually throw out the thumbs up, but I did for Wifey!
I am subscribed though!
What's up BP. You know this is a cover by the Animals. The original was by Leadbelly way back in time. Check it out sometime.
Let's get you back on some good country music - It's been too long - Here are several for you to pick from - Rascal Flatts - What Hurts The Most - you are sharp enough to see what's going on, most reactors miss is - and it drives me crazy.
Tim McGraw - here are two great ones to pick from, both have great messages : Live Like You Were Dying. or Humble and Kind - the titles tell you everything. Tim has a huge catalog of amazing music - he performs several great ones with his talented and beautiful Wife - Faith Hill
Motivational- Carrie Under with Luda - Champion ( official video )
I had also suggested to you an amazing cover along with the Original - you should view them back to back to see what an outstanding cover it truly is.
Believe by Cher ( not the Brooks & Dunn song) Cher released her song Believe in 1989 it's techno - it was the first song to ever use auto tune - in 2019 Adam Lambert covered the same song honoring Cher at the Kennedy Honors- it is beyond words.

I wonder how many people know the true meaning of the line “My mother was a tailor…”?
Wife like Vampires.... check out Versailles Revenant Choir official music video...
The band mermbers are Baroque Era Vampires who wear French Rococo inspired outfits.
Check out any old blues by Robert Johnson
The Frigid Pink did a lot better version.
You need to do more Animals
Hey gyp
Sky pilot
❤
React to SPILL THE WINE by ERIC BURDON (the Animals lead singer) + WAR. Video. It will blow you away.
Not really related, but in video, John Lennon used to look like he was chewing gum when he sang…
I'd suggest you have your wife listen to American Pie by Don McLean. Especially since she liked the Weird Al cover of it already.
Ed
👍👍
This version is fine, but the best version is by Geordie with Brian Johnson.
