I went to High School (AA Stagg High - Stockton, CA.) in 1972. Chris Issac was a grade ahead of me. He ALWAYS carried his guitar case with him in the halls. Played on the center grass glade area at noon. Girls, girls, girls, always girls. Later in the late 80's when he hit it big, I used to go to New George's on 4th Street in San Rafael , CA. when he headlined. Place was packed. Standing 5 feet from him and his band dancing our asses off...Peace
"You don't want anybody playing with your heart; your heart is a valuable thing, it only got so many beats." You dropped some serious TRUTH there, Leo! Words to live by ...
The amount of "gems" that come out his mouth is PRICELESS!!! And he doesn't even know it. Not only is he funny as hell, (without even trying) his spirit is refreshing!!!! :)
When this song first came out I watched the video and listened to it for days and days on repeat. There wasn't a song like it or a voice like his. I've loved him ever since and this song has a permanent spot on my playlist. Still jam it to this day. You need to watch the gorgeous video. Hearing his voice on the produced track will make your whole body break out in goosebumps...trust.
Not sure how you can get Johnny cash when u listening to Chris Isaac?. Vince Gill, and Chris go hand in hand imo. And maybe some Roy Orbison m. I can agree there, also Raul malo the lead singer of the Mavericks. Hope I didn’t butcher his name
@@nolagirl2458 It does sound countrier in this video, but the only version I've ever heard is the video with the model on the beach. It's funny. It sounds the same, but the feel is totally different.
I have to tell you that my mother was a huge Elvis fan and we went to Graceland in 2005 anyways we were in Memphis and just happened to follow up on a concert with Lisa Marie Presley and Chris Isaak at the park and it was amazing because Chris Isaak is a huge Elvis Presley fan if you can tell or not that he has that twang and thing about him but anyways it was the best concert ever and Chris Isaak is huge and you should really listen to a lot more of him plus Lisa Marie Presley she's awesome as well 😃👌🤎
I love watching your expressions when you watch a video. You're such a great guy. The way you smiled as soon as Chris started singing literally gave me the chills. Love you Mr. Video.
I don't know him (I'm about to go listen to a bunch), but this song is pretty old school country from what I'm hearing. Especially the guitar, and he's floating back vocally too.
I had my heart broken so badly that this song always makes me sad but your reaction got me ugly crying. People shouldn't be so cruel, but sometimes they are. Thank you for being so kind.
No body better be threatening to un sub Mr. Video! He's the shit & we need him! He makes us laugh. And I wanted to add, I hope we add as much joy to his life!
You NEED to watch the Official video where supermodel Helena Christensen emotionally tortures the s**t out of him!! Btw he's also an actor! He was in "Silence of the Lambs"
One of Chris's biggest influences was Roy Orbison and if you listen closely you can definently hear it in his voice, and I agree he does have a beautiful voice!!! Keep flowing love watching your reactions!🥰
Helena Christensen is her name. After they shot the video Chris kept going on about how much attraction there was between them, it was electric, etc. When she was asked about him and the video she said he was “nice” 🤣🤣
The official music video to “Wicked Game” was directed by Herb Ritts. He also directed Janet Jackson’s “Love Will Never Do” and Michael Jackson’s “In The Closet,” 3 of the sexiest music videos you’re ever gonna see. Not a coincidence: all 3 music videos costar supermodels.
my float away song back in the day had van used to do a lot of driving when tapes were in car stereo s get blank c 90 tape and put fav songs on worked a lot of hrs my tapes were the best remember driving listening late night summer evening arm out widow just cruising
Interesting fact…Chris had a quick appearance in “Silence of the Lambs” which you reacted to a while ago. He was one of the S.W.A.T. Team in the elevator scene after Hannibal peeled the face off the cop. FYI! Chris’ voice is stunning but can we talk about those background vocals? Butter! Love this reaction, love you! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
I have literally every song Chris Isaac has done. I love him and his music, wicked games, somebody’s crying and going nowhere are my top fave Chris songs
You want more Chris Isaak- You Owe Me Some Kind of Love, Lie to Me, Blue Spanish Sky, Can't Do a Thing (To Stop Me), Graduation Day. He has so many good things you can't pick a bad song.

When you stood up and yelled “ISAAK!!” I cracked up because that was my internal reaction too! I’ve never seen this live version, so good.
One of the smoothest, sexiest, subtle pieces of music ever made. So mesmerizing.
Well said 👌👌💘🌹
So much emotion in the man's voice. Every time i hear this song, i get chills. Especially when he goes forcetto
I agree... btw it's falsetto.
I'm chuckled to myself, "What you got Chris Isaak?" Hang on tight. This is everyone's favourite song once in a while.
What's really wicked is that we have all done it to somebody at sometime!
'Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing' is another good one by Chris.
My favorite song of his is "Wrong To Love You" (though I love so many).
San Francisco Nights is a banger, too!
It’s gotta be the top sexiest music videos too
Yes! He’s just cool!
💯💯💯💯💯❣️
As a musician, this band's performance is exemplary.

Agreed!!!! Leo. Pinpointed that truth!
Hell of a comment 😎😎😎
Amen
I drink as much beet juice as I can.
Love all Chris music.
If this song don't give you chills you must not have skin....🤣
The comments alone on the original video make it worth the trip, they're hilarious
20-30 years later the song still gives me chills every time!
They played this to start off the NY AIDS WALK and the crowd went nuts - of course ☺️
its been that long ?
yep 30 years I turned up the volume for my Mom to hear it first time. She could sing.
When this song first came out I watched the video and listened to it for days and days on repeat. There wasn't a song like it or a voice like his.

My friend and I used to joke that Chris Isaak was created in a lab by scientists looking to create "Sexy Roy Orbison"
Oh I just posed something very similar to this!
Awesome
i think hes a pretty decent elvis impersonator
That's great!!!!!🤣
😜😁🤣❣️
omg his voice.....i love him so much...and i always listen to this song...its so ......woo weeee....lol
he's not country, he's old school bluesy rock n roll, like Elvis, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis, and maybe a little Johnny Cash rock n roll.
Rockabilly!!😍
Perfect description 🥰
Not sure how you can get Johnny cash when u listening to Chris Isaac?. Vince Gill, and Chris go hand in hand imo. And maybe some Roy Orbison m. I can agree there, also Raul malo the lead singer of the Mavericks. Hope I didn’t butcher his name
@@itsme_mandyp I came here to say that
He came out in the same vain and at the same time as Sade.
Blue Hotel is another ..His voice is beautiful ! I always thought he was late 80's 90's Rockabilly blues ..sexy shit hot stuff music!
I wouldn't call Chris Isaak country by any means, but I sure would call him man candy. Yes please.
I second that 🙋🏽♀️. Yes please!
This version I can hear a country twist in it.
@@nolagirl2458 It does sound countrier in this video, but the only version I've ever heard is the video with the model on the beach. It's funny. It sounds the same, but the feel is totally different.
Chris probably falls closer to the Rockabilly category
I second that emotion.
When a song like this give me that feeling I like to watch reactions of other people getting the same thing
I have to go along with everyone who has already said, YOU NEED TO WATCH THE VIDEO, Mr Video 😁
👌👌👌👌👌
word! ain't NOBODY (male heterosexual, anyway) wanted the "live" version. but we still luv ya doe!
Yes!!!
Love Chris Issak, listern to Baby did a bad bad thing, and dancin. Loved your reaction 🤗🤭❤
This song is sexyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Every woman loves this song and if they say they don’t, they lie.
My wife would agree. She has always said women love this song and men love the (official not live) video.
Makes sense. It’s about a woman wrecking a man’s heart haha.
this song can really apply to anyone of either gender who plays games with people’s hearts
@@ChrisHaar 100%.... songs is good BUT, the VIDEO...... ;)
Lol!!.. finally I heard a woman say that..
I have to tell you that my mother was a huge Elvis fan and we went to Graceland in 2005 anyways we were in Memphis and just happened to follow up on a concert with Lisa Marie Presley and Chris Isaak at the park and it was amazing because Chris Isaak is a huge Elvis Presley fan if you can tell or not that he has that twang and thing about him but anyways it was the best concert ever and Chris Isaak is huge and you should really listen to a lot more of him plus Lisa Marie Presley she's awesome as well 😃👌🤎
Love that dreamy, yodeling, smoky sound
I love watching your expressions when you watch a video. You're such a great guy. The way you smiled as soon as Chris started singing literally gave me the chills. Love you Mr. Video.
I don't think of Chris Isaak as country.
I just think of Chris Isaak ... constantly.
Not at all. Chris Stapleton? Yes. Chris Isaak? No.
I don't know him (I'm about to go listen to a bunch), but this song is pretty old school country from what I'm hearing. Especially the guitar, and he's floating back vocally too.
Reminds me of the category you could put Katie Langs constant craving in
That’s because he’s not country.
From the moment I first heard his voice ...yearsss ago...I loved his music.
Goosebumps are real on this one.
I love crooner rockabilly and Chris Isaac is a LEGEND!!!
I can’t believe you passed on the official video and the opportunity to appreciate Helena Christianson in all her glory!
I can't believe it .
Exactly!!! He's REALLY missing out!!!! ;)
YEP!!! she is drop-dead GORGEOUS omg
The song is about Chris's voice, not about a super model's looks. I prefer reactors reacting to live performances.
@@macsfe9828 I stated I couldn’t believe he did, not which version is my favorite. Lighten up dude, have a shot, a smoke, and smile. 😁
All of them are outstanding musicians. Chris Isaac is great
I wouldn't call him Country, but I will say that this song has one of THE sexiest videos ever. Eye candy in the sand for DAYS
Yup, NOT country and....VIDEO is a MUST!!! :)
great voice so unique
Watching Mr. Video trying to sing like Chris Isaak has brought joy to my heart 😍
And yes the original video is a must!
I had my heart broken so badly that this song always makes me sad but your reaction got me ugly crying. People shouldn't be so cruel, but sometimes they are. Thank you for being so kind.
No body better be threatening to un sub Mr. Video! He's the shit & we need him! He makes us laugh. And I wanted to add, I hope we add as much joy to his life!
I agree!!! The BEST antidote for aging is MR. VIDEO and a joint!!!
Love this man!!!
(In a non stalker kinda way)
😆😆😆🙃🥴🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Who's talking to junk about unsubbing? Let them leave if they want we don't need that kind of negativity
@@chris72. exactly!
Agreed 💯
My friend this is one of greatest songs you will ever play. I saw your complete attention and that says it all.
You NEED to watch the Official video where supermodel Helena Christensen emotionally tortures the s**t out of him!! Btw he's also an actor! He was in "Silence of the Lambs"
That video is LEGENDARY! 😳
I miss his show!
He had his own tv series for a bit and it was really good
She's my favorite model ever!
@@viva5526 Do you remember when she was with Michael Hutchence??
Your my fix for a good time guy. Chris is definitely a voice you never forget.💕💕🎶🎶
His voice is hypnotizing ain't it! Such a mood-making tune.
That voice, and his writing, have always been so special.
Gotta react to the official video its gorgeous 😍, so much emotion
he does have a fucking beautiful voice
One of Chris's biggest influences was Roy Orbison and if you listen closely you can definently hear it in his voice, and I agree he does have a beautiful voice!!! Keep flowing love watching your reactions!🥰
Thank you for showing love to Roy!
That's the first singer that came to mind. He's very much like Roy. Fantastic
And Elvis Presley
It's plain obvious in his voice and timing
He is so dreamy! I saw him once at Green Apple books in San Francisco and just about passed out. 💕💕💕
One of the most beautiful songs ever made
Yep, it's an oldie, but just LOVVVE this song. Chris Isaak is incredible as well as the rest of the guys!!!
This is one sexy song. Watch the other video of this song. He's rolling around on the beach with the one he's singing to.. you'll appreciate it 😁👍
@Zazu Pitts She was Michael Hutchence’s ex first.
Please please please watch the music video.
This is all about .. lovin and losin!!!!!!!!! If you ever lived ... you have felt that
No other song captures the essence of love like this one. It's one wicked game, the stuff of the worst nightmares and the most beautiful dreams.
Man has one of the most wonderful voices ever I swear❤
You have to watch the actual music video. It’s so beautifully done. You may have a new crush in there lol sorry Sade
Nah. That video is super distracting.
yeah man, that woman from the official video is hauntingly beautiful
Helena Christensen is her name. After they shot the video Chris kept going on about how much attraction there was between them, it was electric, etc. When she was asked about him and the video she said he was “nice” 🤣🤣
@@johnny85er Helena Christensen. She is stunning. One of the original supermodels
@@nanip2029 poor Chris ! Lol she was really young too. I believe only 20 years old
This song crossed genres. Legendary...if ya ask me.😎
You definitely need to see the official video to this song. It’s beautiful and very sexy!
Yeah. Have the big pillow ready. 😂

@@OZYM1 I love “Love Will Never Do”!
Definitely!!! It is a masterpiece
my float away song back in the day had van used to do a lot of driving when tapes were in car stereo s get blank c 90 tape and put fav songs on worked a lot of hrs my tapes were the best remember driving listening late night summer evening arm out widow just cruising
My husband and I were just teens when we saw the movie WILD AT HEART and this became our song. Still together after 30 years. Btw love your vids!! 💜
Love it!!..... thanks for sharing!! :)
What’s not to like? Just so smooth. Your shoulders just wanna drop and you feel so chilled listening to this.
That voice! ❤️🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏼
The official video is definitely worth a watch for sure!
My inner school girl is screaming!! Yes Sir!!!! ❤😊❤
This song was the go to for 90's TV shows when they're trying to convey a complicated moment between couples.
"He slow stroking early!" Right off the bat. That's why I love your reactions. Keep toking, brother.
Forgot about how just so "heart-soul-melting" song this is! Just a soul touching song damn
Interesting fact…Chris had a quick appearance in “Silence of the Lambs” which you

One of my favorite songs. Thanks for choosing it
What a voice. Iconic and mysterious
Chris is smooth - and I love your kudos to Chris, cuz he sure can 'SANG'
Saw him live 3-4 years ago. Perhaps the best showman I've ever had the pleasure of seeing. Very old school feel, think the movie Walk the Line
Bruh..I can’t tell my man no to anything when I hear this song😍😍 It hypnotizes me.🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Always loved him. This song is just so beautiful 😍
I love this song! Have since I was a little girl and first heard it. Whenever it comes up on one of my playlists, it goes on repeat.
Somebody’s Cryjng & Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing are my favorites. Love his humor & heart. Still touring & great!!
Your assessment of the lyrics is correct in my mind. Still one of the sexiest tunes ever.
NEVER GETS OLD. 💘
Like many artists, Chris Isaak's music is the fusion of different influences -- country certainly being one of them. California boy.💗
"he sounds like an angel.." awww🥰
This song is so timeless, gives me chills to this day. Now do the music video...oh my
Watching the official video is a must...I still remember it to this day and haven’t seen it in years and years.
Wow.. Never heard the live version before. Very nice 😍
Jeff Buckley--Last Goodbye will certainly give you chills
I have literally every song Chris Isaac has done. I love him and his music, wicked games, somebody’s crying and going nowhere are my top fave Chris songs
I Wonder on the Fool's Rush In soundtrack is the one that drew me in. I had to find who sang it. 🙂
Kings of the Highway and We Let Her Down for me personally. But you could play me Chris Isaak singing the menu from McDonald's and I'd be happy.
I knew a lady who didn't really understand English and she said his voice made her cry.
Oh my goodness gracious. Chills. Banger for sure. Great reaction as always, Mr V. ❤️👍🏻
I've let myself down forgetting about this song
It's o.k.. Hearing something for the third first time is awesome.
This one grabs you. Cannot wait to see what you say.....here we go.......🎼🎤sustained like that......talent. Yep.....he got you. 🎼🎸🎤❤️😎
This song always makes me cry 😢 So mournful
I don't know what sounds better, Chris or that Strat on his left.
Yep. That’s EXACTLY what this song’s about. 👏👏👏
Saw Chris a couple years ago live...incredible show
yep, one of those "panty-dropping" voices.
YES!!!! My wife calls me gauche when I say that, but it's a real thing, yes?
😄😄😄😄😄
👍👍👍
The video with Helena Christensen. Stunner. Wow. This was a song of the day.. Back in.
Love this SONG!!!!!!! THANK YOU MR.VIDEO . You such a sweetheart 💕 ❤ 😘
Love Chris, he's a really nice guy, great singer songeriter not to mention he's 🔥🔥
The lyrics are all heartbreak juxtaposed against the pure seductive sounds of his voice and the music.
This song is so eerily beautiful! A genius song!
You should watch his interviews. He has a great sense of humor
Beautiful song and Chris can definitely SANG!
Eventually you did it, Chris is just spectacular, your reaction priceless. 💯💯💯💯
Ya, Chris is a rock’n’roll/rockabilly/roots crooner, with a pinch of jazz here and there. He’s great.
I love to ‘try’ 🤣 to sing this song when I fancy it but I just can’t sing with him. His voice is too emotional to behold. Pure vocal beauty.
I've tried to sing this song too. Did a look around first to make sure the coast was clear..
You want more Chris Isaak- You Owe Me Some Kind of Love, Lie to Me, Blue Spanish Sky, Can't Do a Thing (To Stop Me), Graduation Day. He has so many good things you can't pick a bad song.
