BEAUTIFUL! |FIRST TIME HEARING Gordon Lightfoot - Rainy Day People REACTION

[@sj49770]

"Every time I hear a song of [Gordon's] it's like I wish it could go on forever." --Bob Dylan

[@TristanandIsolt]

Great tribute. Thanks for sharing.

[@batmanforpresident9655]

One of the best things about being 50 plus years old is being alive to have heard great music like this when it first came out.

[@hawkeyegeorge]

Amen

[@cathynuytten798]

Totally agree!

[@KenRoerden]

So true.

[@michaelrieser9928]

I remember spending summers on my aunt and uncles farm in Ohio and everyday the clock radio alarm would go off and songs like this would go on. Every time I hear the top forty from 1973- it makes me remember tending to hogs. Good memories! Sometimes we didn’t do farm stuff and we would go to Ceder Point

As a Canadian, I'm still mourning the loss of Gordon Lightfoot. I grew up listening to his music when it was new. Having heard some of the music over the past 20 years, I'm glad I grew up when I did, when true songwriters and storytellers like Lightfoot could do it all.

[@petergarayt9634]

Have you seen John Prine at 'The house of Strombo' ? Lightfoot is in the audience.

[@RustyB453]

Same ... I'm from Ontario, Canada. My mother went to school with Gordon, in Orillia. I believe she said they even worked together on weekends in a laundromat, when they were kids. That was something I heard many years ago. Mom has since passed as well.

[@6916dog]

I absolutely love the John Prine at House of Strombo vid. Sound is crystal clear, stories are told, small crowd is totally engrossed....and Gord smiling and singing along. ❤ ❤

[@edorm3120]

Love it when you feature my fellow Canadian singers. This is beautiful 🥰

[@NetVoyer]

This man is a fantastic writer and performer.

[@quincee3376]

RIP Mr. Lightfoot. What an artist. A Canadian icon. Great stuff guys.

[@ChuckHackney]

Oh, Canada!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@mrnobody3161]

Gordon Lightfoot has his own Vibe. No one else like him. 🎶✌️👉🇨🇦

[@louisejohnson6057]

✌️🫶❄️🇨🇦❄️

[@danieldickson8591]

First word of a song out of his mouth, you instantly knew who it was.

[@kellahella5286]

Only one kinda close would be Jim Croce.

[@johnmason8841]

I won't lie, I am 62 yrs old, and I cried like a baby, from the memories this has brought back. I have gone through many traumatic experiences, and his music has helped me through an awful lot. I was privileged, to see Gordon about 8 years before he died, he was frail, but he never skipped a beat. I also got to meet him and have a picture taken with him. It was so bitter sweet! RIP Gordon, thank you for all your beautiful music, which has helped me to survive to this day!! ❤

[@jimmuratori5625]

John I am also 62 years old and I saw him way back when I was 20 years old in a theater in the round setting in Chicagoland.

[@RJs_CC]

It has been said that "Gordon Lightfoot is your favorite singer's favorite singer."

[@nickrizzi4927]

They say that about many other artists too. They're right about each!

[@bryandamkaer3646]

Gordon was one of my favorites as a kid growing up in the 60s and 70s... I just turned 61 and still love his music..

[@TedJamesLytle790]

Same. I am a year behind you.

[@TheBeav87914]

Same. 🎉64 last Thursday, love the 70s what a great time to be alive!☮️💖🎶

[@loritajohnson5664]

Me too! Same age!

[@randyem6910]

67 here love this song.

[@MRTruckingshorts]

The next Gordon Lightfoot you guys really need to hear is "Canadian railroad trilogy" that's got amazing imagery in the lyrics and transports you to the building of a railroad and a nation..... He really nails it!!!

[@ultimatespinach]

I second that request. The song was commissioned by the CBC for Canada's Centennial in 1967 and shows Gordon at his poetic and storytelling best. An absolutely epic song that dips and soars and is full of passion!

[@damonhines8187]

I too keep waiting for 'The Canadian Railroad Trilogy'; a stunning progression through a truly Canadian story which parallels the story of the US's own railroad.

[@Thepirireis]

I also second that request

[@AmandaZuke]

YESSSS! Canadian Railroad Trilogy is such a special song.

[@christineh9838]

YES!!!! Amber, this is a historical song that will blow you away with the lyrics, and Jay will love the guitar. Would love to see this done soon!

[@williamrandall3786]

What a voice that man had - damn!!!!!!!

[@randybass8842]

Gordon Lightfoot used to drive from town to town when he was on tour, rather than fly. He was driving north from Phoenix and saw an exit sign for Carefree Highway, to the small town of Carefree. He didn't take that exit, but those words started to play in his head as he drove along, and the song Carefree Highway became one of his biggest hits. You should give it a listen. BTW, I live in Phoenix now, and Carefree Highway is still there.

[@tazjammer]

One of my favorites.

[@magneto7930]

When Gordon Lightfoot is on, you just stop whatever you're doing and listen.

[@tonymonk1965]

I saw Gordon Lightfoot in concert in 1987 in Vancouver BC Canada. It was absolutely amazing. I felt I was on cloud 9 throughout the whole concert. I was 22 years old.

[@KatazeevTheWizard]

Bob Dylan once called him his favorite singer. He was truly a fantastic singer and songwriter! ❤

[@jethro1963]

Dylan famously inducted Gordon Lightfoot into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1986. The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, which runs the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, had wanted to put Lightfoot in basically every year since it started, in 1978. But Lightfoot wouldn't go in until they could get Dylan to induct him.

[@brendaekdridge3523]

Just love everything Gordon Lightfoot sings.

[@doreenm9168]

Lightfoot is a master of the 12 string guitar…his sound is like no other..

[@ultimatespinach]

The song that perhaps defines Lightfoot more than any other is his "Canadian Railroad Trilogy". It was commissioned by the CBC for Canada's Centennial in 1967 and shows Gordon at his poetic and storytelling best. An absolutely epic song that dips and soars and is full of musical passion. Cheers from Ontario, Canada!

[@eddyd3298]

Summer side of life - Gordon Lightfoot

[@Ed-R]

A few more songs by Gordon Lightfoot are "Alberta Bound", Mountains and Maryann", and "Canadian Railroad Trilogy". Another Canadian singer is Ian Tyson "Springtime in Alberta".

[@supasoulproductions]

No one else will probably ask for this, but my favorite Gordon Lightfoot love song is 'The Last Time I Saw Her'. Just incredible poetry and storytelling! And some beautiful guitar playing as usual.

[@folkmusic99]

Yes!! I wish the whole world could hear this song. One of the saddest but most beautiful love songs ever. The interplay between the acoustic guitar and the full orchestra is breathtaking. And then you have his words and his voice. Majestic!!

[@folkmusic99]

From the album "Did She Mention My Name?"

[@tedcole9936]

Sign me up, I’m with you. Great song.

[@terrymacleod6882]

100%! You're not alone.

[@johnhegarty1761]

I have this album.

[@rubyswaim1441]

Back in the day, someone told me that I am a Rainy Day People. I took it as touching compliment.

[@geraldyates8958]

A few years ago a buddy and I were playing golf. It started a light rain around hole 13 or so. And started to increase. It started fairly hard on 18. My buddy was complaining bit about his game and the rain. After we got to the cart when done I said to pull up to that tree for cover. And then I played this song. He asked what the hell are we listening to? Gordon Lightfoot. I told him to listen and be a rainy day people with a positive attitude like this and me at the time. Now loves Sundown so he listened and got it! Love this song!

[@cherylfahnert6798]

A big rabbit hole here, gordon was amazing. Please react to "beautiful". It never fails to give me goosebumps

[@BethReed62]

I love that song. ❤

[@technomikelyons]

I played a lot of Lightfoot when I worked the all night shift at a Vancouver area oldies station from 1989-1992, and "Beautiful" in particular brings back memories of sitting with lights dimmed, and the guitar strumming as the CD machine clicked as it began blinking to let me know the song was ending... I would almost lose myself in the song. Absolutely they need to react to that song, which lives up to its name.

[@carolmartin4413]

RIP, GL...you've earned it. We miss you. 😢

[@ZenWithKen]

Sunday afternoons, sitting in the kitchen, mom baking bread, me doing homework, listening to GL plays on the radio.

[@danieldickson8591]

I have to say, I started coming to your channel when Jay was on his own, and I remember you both being pretty naive as far as knowledge and understanding of music. Seeing you now, hearing your comments being so much more perceptive and insightful, makes me appreciate how much you've grown. From an old man to a young couple, thank you for helping bring classic music to a younger audience.

[@normabreazile5500]

One of my all time favorites! Another song I would suggest…BEAUTIFUL..it’s a great song!

[@glenonoko4918]

Another great song of Gordon's in the "history lesson" category is "Canadian Railroad Trilogy"

[@haroldmorey1107]

My Wife and I saw him in Lakeland FL for our 50 th Anniversary.His show was Great

[@joelliebler5690]

Another great one by one of the best storytellers!2 more unforgettable great ones by Gord are Song For a Winter’s Night, and Beautiful,( The perfect wedding or anniversary tune)!

[@shelleywright749]

My older brother bought Gordie's first album, Lightfoot!, back in 1966. I was 8 years old and have been a fan ever since. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on one of Canada's most gifted artists. xx

[@johnnyV2194]

I also have older siblings that shared great music. I was born in 1962.

[@raymondohlsen5054]

Y'all sending me back to the 70's with this one!! Spent a lot of my teen years listening to Gordon Lightfoot. Check out his song Beautiful.

[@martyholbrook91]

I was blessed to have seen Gordon Lightfoot in concert in 1997. It was the 1st date that i had with my boyfriend that later become my husband. My heart will forever miss him, but what a legacy he left behind. You have to check out The Circle is Small or Daylight Katy and let's not forget Cold on The Shoulder. He deserves to be in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame!!!!

[@Alan-lv9rw]

This is his best song. Love it!

[@pjmurphy920]

Found Gordon Lightfoot in the early to mid 1970s and his album, Gord's Gold, is one of my very favorite albums. He has so many beautiful, calming and feel-good songs, including Raindy Day People. Another very visual song of his is "Song for a Winter's Night." Thank you for your reaction to Gordon!! Peace!

[@NavvyMom]

Yes, I have that CD. I love The Pony Man. Edit: Well of course I love the whole thing, but that's a cute song that tells a nice story and is overlooked for his more serious fare.

[@DavidMcIntosh-v4g]

Having been a fan of Gordon Light for many years, "Song for a Winter's Night" is one of my favorites. "Beautiful" is exactly what its title says.

[@ub1846]

⁠Pony man was written by Gord for his children - played it for my granddaughter.

[@GeorgetteHolloway-g4q]

Love love love Gordon Lightfoot, we don't have many good singer songwriters anymore where you can understand the words, his music makes you FEEL same as David Gates from Bread, Cat Stevens, John Denver. Bring back the singer songwriters, music today is missing something! We need them!

[@stevetournay6103]

They're there. But they're lower profile than they were. You just have to hunt a bit...

[@taun856]

II know you'll love one of his deepest songs "Don Quixote".

[@davidswearingen4411]

I think that's my favorite as well. "Don Quixote" is a tremendous song.

[@michaelnorman3393]

Canada's finest....

[@andreagiesbrecht611]

So many phenomenal songs by Gordon Lightfoot. I think you will enjoy Canadian Railroad Trilogy (another history lesson). My feeling is that the spirit of the song also reflects the building of the American railroads to the west.

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Gordon is such an amazing Canadian treasure. And there is so much MORE Canadian music that you haven't discovered yet. Blue Rodeo is an iconic Canadian group that has an incredible thirty year rabbit hole to go down. Try, Diamond Mine, It Hasn't Hit Me Yet, Trust Yourself, Bulletproof are just a few of their biggest hits. I know you'll BOTH fall in love with their sound and instrumentation behind them. Big hugs from Ontario, Canada! :)

[@Carrie-so3ro]

ABSOLUTELY TRUE!! They love Canadian music when they listen to our artists - Shania Twain, (Gordon Lightfoot), Rush, Heart, Corey Hart, Celine Dion, Alanis Morisette etc. BUT - they haven't even touched the TIP of the iceberg!! I keep wanting them to discover more. I KNOW that they will LOVE so much of it! Blue Rodeo is CERTAINLY one they should hear. The ONLY Canadian Country music that they know is Shania Twain - (& they BOTH really like her.) They have NEVER done anybody else - & there ISN'T anybody BETTER Than Blue Rodeo! You are also right about the instrumentation. I was thinking how much they would like it just the other day. For Blue Rodeo - I would suggest - "5 Days in May" as a start. Not only does it have great instrumentation, it has the romantic edge that I know Amber will like. Afterwards, J. might like to especially listen to - "Rose-coloured Glasses" - & then ALL the rest! J. & Amber, I know that you normally do it this way anyways, but when your discover our new groups, it is BEST to listen to them as we were first introduced to them - either with an Official Music Video OR else a studio version. Live almost never gives the song in its best light & only do it if a person PARTICULARLY suggests it for one OR you have heard at least 1 song already by the artist(s), so you know how they sound before watching something live to see them perform.

[@timcarder2170]

Great Big Sea 😊

[@Cyssane]

Blue Rodeo is a great suggestion! And there's so many more Canadian artists they haven't heard as well -- Great Big Sea, Cowboy Junkies, The Tea Party, Kim Mitchell, Colin James, Sass Jordan, Luba, Bif Naked... honestly the list goes on and on.

[@Carrie-so3ro]

BESIDES Blue Rodeo - just SOME of the Canadian artists they still need to check out: Chiliwack - (70s Chiliwack) - Fly at Night - (80s Chiliwack) - My Girl (Gone, Gone, Gone) Great Big Sea - Ordinary Day - Mari Mac (NOT their normal style but one they still need to hear) Amanda Marshall - Beautiful Goodbye - (to start) Alannah Myles - Black Velvet Tom Cochrane & Red Ryder (both Tom solo & with the band) - ESP. - Lunatic Fringe Spirit of the West - Home For a Rest Gowan - (80s Gowan) - Cosmetics (Amber will love his videos) - (90s Gowan - all perfected) - All the Lovers in the World Trooper - Raise a Little Hell Kim Mitchell - Go for a Soda - (he's a male Amber, just so you don't get him confused for Female Friday 😄 Sass Jordan (female 😄) - Make You a Believer Crash Test Dummies - Superman's Song Spoons - Old Emotions The Pursuit of Happiness - I'm an Adult Now Have J. & Amber done - Glass Tiger - at all? esp. - Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone These are just the ones that I can think of off the top of my head AND They have NEVER done: Takin' Care of Business - BTO (Bachman Turner Overdrive) Somewhere Down That Crazy River - Robbie Robertson If I Had a Million Dollars - Bare Naked Ladies - (the song that started it all) - although in truth - Grade 9 - is a good pick as it is closest to the style of - One Week (& it ALSO gives a depiction into life as a 1st year high school student in the EARLY 80s ie 1983?) I hope J. & Amber DO read & make note of this list & any others anybody else adds that I have not immediately thought of here. Have a great day/night everyone.

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

@@Carrie-so3ro They actually did Glass Tiger pretty recently - and I think Alanah Myles as well. I have been requesting Spirit of the West for a year now. Just itching to see Jordan's WTF look on his face - before he and Amber start chair dancing.

[@steveker5084]

The older I've gotten, the more I appreciate this guy. So relaxing, so easy on the ears.

[@ztyphoon8982]

You like deep voice folk singers? Stan Rogers is a must hear. “The Mary Ellen Carter” is my favorite.

[@tommesing4281]

As a songwriter, I'm amazed at his ability to put poetic ideas into words and music so flawlessly. He's a world class talent. I never heard him do a bad song. This one is super sweet. What an icon...! Glad to have grown up listening to him.

[@ub1846]

“Song For A Winter’s Night” is a masterpiece of poetic imagery - ol’ Gord is gone, but his music is timeless.

[@aarongoldstein7614]

Hard to believe Gordon Lightfoot left this world almost a year ago. I had the pleasure of hearing Gord perform this song live four times over a 25-year period. Your next Gord reaction should be "Summer Side of Life" - Live at the BBC. He was at the height of his powers. R.I.P.

[@extracaliber432]

Summerside is my fave.

[@deb4578]

In my 60s now I've always been thankful for the music I've had the pleasure of hearing throughout my life. Mom loved the 'big bands' and the crooners...Sinatra, Dean, Como and Crosby. Dad was the 'country' man...Ernie Ford, Buck Owens, Roy Clark and I had a sis 10 yrs older. She introduced me to doo-wap, Elvis, Everly Bros, Beach Boys, The Beatles, Motown and folk. Then I had my own generation's contribution: The Monkees, Three Dog Night, BeeGees, KC disco and awesone 80s music. And I was exposed to classical at school. Talk about diversity!! l watched Top of the Pops, HeeHaw, Lawrence Welk, American Bandstand, Andy Williams, Donny & Marie, and Soul Train. Throw in glorious country Gospel, too. J and Amber's reactions are so fun and enjoyable and I'm glad they're open to listening to such a myriad of music styles. Their channel is one of the best things about the internet.

[@Jagangela]

100% agree!

[@johnbeech6940]

How about playing "My Love For You", that's my favorite Gordon Lightfoot song .....

[@rogerwaterman8153]

Folk. Storyteller. Time for some more HARRY CHAPIN. Iconic 70’s folk storyteller. Sending love from sunny SoCal!

[@khayyakkuan5836]

'Sundown' was Gordon Lighfoot's early song that I learned to sing and play the guitar, after which I entered a tv song contest in the early 70s good old Hong Kong playing this song and I won a prize of a rice cooker 😅❤

[@ronbrown912]

My first concert ever was Lightfoot in the 70's. He made me a life long fan of live concerts. Been going to several a year ever since. He holds a special place in my heart. RIP, Mr. Lightfoot. Your legacy lives on....

[@Robomatic]

As a former track man on the railroad I have to recommend “Canadian Railroad Trilogy”. I get a lump in my throat every time.

[@wadewestworth4282]

Oh how I miss Gordon! Another great Canadian singer song writer you shockingly haven’t done yet is Leonard Cohen (he wrote Hallelujah - you did the KD Lang version) but he has some amazing songs as well. Suzanne, I’m Your Man, Everybody Knows, Dance me to the end of Love, Chelsea Hotel #2 (about his fling with Janice Joplin), and on it goes.

[@MrRiverfeverwa]

I could listen to Gordon Lightfoot for hours on end! What a treasure he was...

[@detect]

Then go fucking listen and shut up!!!

[@carollandrum9223]

The whole double album Gord's Gold is just that, Gold!

[@ub1846]

One of my favorite albums; not a bad song among the tracks.

[@sallypursell1284]

I love Gordon Lightfoot! Thanks so much for reacting to him.

[@leemcclements8889]

A staple of my youth. His voice was beautiful.

[@ddiamondr1]

Amber, that was so cute that little laugh on the high stepping strutters line. I’m so glad we can still listen to that guys voice. Another iconic piece of work from him is The Canadian Railroad Trilogy. I don’t know if you’re aware that all the proceeds from the song Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald went to the families of the crew. And that when Lightfoot passed away, they rang the bell in the Detroit Maritime Cathedral for Gordon. Just as they did for that crew. What a guy.

[@howko3583]

Black Day in July. A must listen by Lightfoot

[@donmurray6362]

Highly recommend Beautiful. My favourite Lightfoot song.

[@stevehatton-bw3bo]

Best way to describe Gordon Lightfoot is simply beautiful!👍👍❤️❤️

[@Carrie-so3ro]

I remember listening to him as a child - on the radio or on one of my mother's albums. I have always found his voice & music so very wonderfully soothing. Such a great thing to listen to.

[@garyi.1360]

I always like it when you appreciate the deeper sounding voices. It's almost a lost thing.

[@MrSteveLoucks]

Here’s a rainy suggestion for you: The Fortunes’ Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again. Such a fun song with a lead singer who will remind you of another great one!

[@stefanwilliams2576]

Got to have a brief "Hi, how ya doing" backstage meet and greet with him thru his record company. He was so gracious and patient and genuine and you know he had to do thousands of these over his career. Truly as nice as his songs...

Looking at the Rain is a fantastic song that will certainly pull emotins out of you when you hear it. Check it out.

[@LittleWolf194]

Always liked Gordon Lightfoot but you need to check out fellow Canadian songwriter/singer Ian Tyson who wrote a lot of classics in the 1960s & 70s :) Try; 'Four Strong Winds', 'Someday Soon', 'Navaho Blanket', for starters?

[@chaz5229]

OMG....I feel like I'm a little girl again hearing this music!! I miss the wonderful music of singers and songwriters.

[@themanofmovies]

One of the many reason that the 70's is my favorite decade of music. The massive resurgence of the folk music from people like Jim Croce, Gordan Lightfoot, Dan Fogelberg, Don McLean, Ian and Sylvia, Peter Paul & Mary, Cat Stevens, James Taylor... I could go on forever. There is just something about the relaxing folk music of the 70's that can make any day no matter how hard, stressful, or tiring feel easy. Being a Millennial, I for sure fall under the term polyjamorous. My Itunes music list would make people question, how do you go from something as harsh as Deathcore, to something as easy listening as BJ Thomas, to some Nelly, to some Alan Jackson, to even some Opera...

[@stevetournay6103]

Well...David Draiman, for one, does all of that in one lone cover song, so...😁

[@surlechapeau]

You guys gotta listen to some more Eric Carmen since he just passed away and was an amazing artist, as you've gotten to hear.

[@roncypert8255]

One of my favorite singer/sonwriters. He was a master storyteller. Another of his songs that’s in the same vibe as this one is Rainbow Trout. Exquisitely beautiful and so tastefully produced as usual.

[@Linda-zm6lk]

Great song! You should do The Circle is Small. Great lyrics!

[@tcanfield]

One of the best love songs I ever heard is Gordon’s “Affair On 8th Avenue”. His romanticism was one of his best facets.

[@KStewart-th4sk]

In addition to his singing voice, song writing abilities, Gordon Lightfoot was also a very good guitar player. Oh, and he was one of the square dancers on CBC's Country Hoedown, which was hosted by Gordie Tapp. I often wondered if anyone on that show knew what a tremendous future talent they had in Gordon Lightfoot. As for Gordie Tapp, he went to the USA and became one of the cast on Hee Haw.

[@antoniofernandez7075]

"That Same Old Obsession" is one of his most beautiful songs ever¡¡ It hit #3 in Canada in 1972.

[@DerekDominoes]

Eric Carmen has passed away. Would be awesome for you two to do another reaction video to Eric on his own or with The Raspberries.
