Bob Seger - Like a Rock First Time Reaction | Rere Reacts

[@Werebare]

My favorite performer for over 50 years. Give Night Moves, Mainstreet, Famous Final Scene, Brave Strangers or Turn the Page a try, you won’t be disappointed with any of them!

[@jeremydean6210]

How did you forget Old time Rock N Roll? 😂🤷‍♂️👊

[@leitheparsons1186]

When I leave Denver, you know what I put on! Usually I end up listening to him all the way through Wyoming or Kansas or to New Mexico depending where I was headed.

[@fasttruckman]

Bro, you forgot Strut.

[@Werebare]

@ that’s fair, couldn’t remember them all, too damn many

[@BlueDragon53]

Bob Seger is an American Legend and National Treasure. One of the best singer songwriters ever. His catalog is massive. Had so many hit songs, he was the voice of the blue collar working man. Loved your reaction Re

[@thirday44]

I'm 62yrs old and with every year that passes, this song digs deeper into my soul. My favorite scene in this video is when the young lady climbs up onto the back of the seat with the wind blowing through her hair. A time of carefree. Then both guitar solos........ Thank you for your reaction.

[@billc.5861]

Oh boy , every older guy can relate to this song Looking in the rear view mirror of your life This song brings misty eyes to this grizzly old drummer guy after raising my kids and seeing them become adults Where did those last 20 years ago? It goes by in a blank of an eye

[@michaeltellez2755]

In my opinion he comes up to the train tracks, stops and gets out, the train represents his life starting at 18, The young people across the tracks were him and his friends when they were young. When he says 20 years now where they go, the young kids across the tracks stop and wondered what their lives will be as they get older, when the train comes to end that is where he is at in his life right now. I always get choked up when he says 20 years where they go i always wonder that it goes so fast. im 59 now and i still sit and wonder where the time went.

[@jamescutler8055]

59 year old here. Bob Seger is the voice of my life. Love his music.

[@walterwilliams2195]

I just want to say that your reactions are so thoughtful and the way that you show respect to all of the genres is really refreshing. Thank you for being yourself.

[@bobblethreadgill4463]

What ever you want to react by Bob Seger is going to be a great song. All his work is great youngin. Hell Yeah.

[@MyCamfan]

I was 18 years old in 1986 when this song was released. I'm now 56 and this song is so poignant looking back on my life now. Bob Seger is such a good storyteller.

[@Andres64B]

You can never do too much Bob Seger. He has a massive catalog and I can honestly say that there are only one or two songs that I'm not crazy about.

[@rickwelch8464]

Turning 56 tomorrow and this song brings a tear. I remember it all like it was yesterday. Stronger, better looking, ideals still intact. "Something to see" as he says.

[@leitheparsons1186]

For me, 57 last August. Bob Seager lyrics mean more the older you get.

[@RobertBreedon-c3b]

Yep 57 as well here plays like a movie of my life I was 19 when this song came out I was like a rock i changed the line 20 years now where they go to 40 years

[@crankyyankee7290]

74 here-50 years where'd they go ?-Now I drive a ragtop Corvette(newer than that one but old).back in the day drove a Chrysler(like the one with the slanted headlights, but 1 year newer) did work for peanuts then,living with my Ex wife-I see a lot in that video, old ,treasured memories !

[@EricNess-sc3rh]

Yes, you've found another corner in the roomy rock world. One that has held this 68-year-old warmly and tightly.

[@bostonwhofan]

I recently turned 59 years old. The lyric in this song "I still believed in my dreams" means a lot more to me now than it did when I was a teenager when the album was first released. Many of my teenage dreams came true. Many didn't. But the good news is, even at the age of 59....I still believe in my dreams.

[@mitchelfishel4075]

I was 26 years old when Bob Seager released LIKE A ROCK. I was young and firm,,,, arrow straight,,,, working for peanuts,,,, and strong in my beliefs.... I instantly loved this song.. The music,,, rhythm,,,, guitar.... Then there was the lyrics.... The story of growing up,,,, growing old..... I`d hear it every day at work from the older men I worked with.... " When I was young".. " It seems like only yesterday:.... I was aware that someday I would be there... I always respected and expected that.... So now,,, today,,,, as I type this,,,, I am 64 years old.... Still able to work,,,, still firm in my beliefs,,,, but wiser,,, kinder,,,, smarter,,, and a little sadder... 40 years,,,,, where did they go? Seems like only 8 or 10 years ago.... I now sit,, bathed in the firelight,,,, looking at the pale moonlight,,,, remembering long past summer nights..... This song is so utterly spot-on. In 1986 I first heard and loved this song. Since then I have lived this song. I have become this song. Now, my eyes mist when I hear this song.... It is so damn true....

[@johnv61]

Great reaction, you nailed what he’s singing about. Bob is my favorite artist of all time, he’s a great story teller. The older you get, the more his songs resonate with you. Check out “Night Moves” and “Turn the Page”, you’ll love them both. Really can’t go wrong with Bob, all his songs are great!

[@michaeltellez2755]

i recommend every young person from 18 and up and then listen to this song 20, 30, even 40 years of age and 20 years from now play this song then u will understand how much you miss your youth and sit back close your eyes during the guitar solo and picture yourself young again. It will choke you up maybe even make you cry Bob Seeger is Goat for writing beautiful songs about life.

[@onnasenshi7739]

I don't miss my youth, if anything I miss a time when many things were easier. The reason why I don't miss my youth is that I would belittle what came afterwards. Today, at the age of 58, I often think of old loves that we ran after, of friends who left us too soon, of my children when they were still Kids. Today I enjoy their children, my “new” love (together for a few years). I enjoyed the old times, but I enjoy the present time just as much.

[@barrysmith4492]

Against the wind, Bob Seger and the Silver bullet band

[@jamescrane2156]

Bob Seger - Night Moves. Studio version or music video.

[@daledodson1279]

The music video is just a distraction, as far as I’m concerned.

[@chipurBillWhite]

Beyond his talent, he’s a wonderful man.

[@nwredneckturner1508]

You totally get it. This is probably one of the greatest video concepts interpreting a song ever. His youth on one side of the tracks, his present on the other, and the train is the time passing between the two. The amazing guitar and raspy voice just help to emphasize the meaning of the lyrics. Brilliant.

[@briangrogan7107]

Prepare yourself for one of the great rabbit holes of American music. Seger=Legend

[@Randsurfer]

I think what makes the song so universal is that Bob is not just talking about physical strength, although the vitality of youth is definitely a theme. He's talking about mental strength, morality, focus, integrity.... which is available to anyone, even someone with limited physical power.

[@michaelbaker3598]

Thank you for listening and not constantly interrupting the music

[@ThistleAndSea]

You found another classic! Bob can flat out sang, and The Silver Bullet Band is top notch. This one is mid-80's, but this bunch of guys from Detroit, Michigan first got together in the 70's and they have many, many hits. In fact, I don't think there is such a thing as a bad Bob Seger song, for real. You will enjoy them all! Try his Turn The Page, Night Moves, Hollywood Nights, Against The Wind, and Mainstreet for starters, but really, you can't go wrong with anything you decide to listen to. Thanks for sharing this one.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Well said.

[@tracyborden1468]

Heis one of the greatest song writers who has ever put pen to paper. Incredible story teller

[@williamcwoodjr8075]

It's nice to hear someone who just listened to the music! (78,class of "65")

[@mikeconway9849]

Great reaction, Rere! Bob Seeger has a good catalog to look into. Lots of amazing songs. I really appreciate watching today's youth enjoy music i grew up with!

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

give this song another 40 years and then you will really connect and appreciate it even more. Life and age connect the dots much better.

[@JOELY79]

As a 40 year old man i can say you do start looking back at your younger days when everything seemed possible and you didn't have the aches n pains of getting older 🤣🤣 Bob Seger Night Moves is an awesome song as well

[@Kevin-i6t5i]

Had my 40 year high school reunion last August, yep it's sobering how fast time passes, and the aches and pains for sure, I don't heal as quickly nowadays 😊

[@bigdaddyeb56]

Brother Bob !!! The Pride of Michigan !! One of the Greatest Story Tellers

[@johnmac62]

Singer, Songwriter, musician, Storyteller extraordinaire! One of the best of all time. Turn the Page and Against the Wind are my favorites from him. I love the way he uses seasons of the year to express times of life

[@paulkingartwerks7981]

My homeboy from Michigan! Seger is the G.O.A.T.

[@charlenezack37]

This song became a commerical for Chevy Trucks and helped them escape collasping like other parts of General Motors. Since Seger 3:52 grew up in Michigan,it had double meaning. I am sure you know their old Time Rock 'n Roll, so many hits

[@glennvanzandt3011]

He's one of the best, please do more. Hes a great writer, storyteller and singer. Enjoy your reactions and your perspectives.

[@Neaptide184]

Night Moves, Turn the Page, We’ve Got the Night.

[@timshuey917]

Bob never disappoints. Keep listening to his music, one of the great voices and storytellers.

[@frankmerris8821]

MR SEGER IS A LIVING LEGEND. Love watching the younger generation appreciating the music of 60s and 70s and imo the time where music was at its best

[@sitnhere]

Bob Seger's music is timeless. Are you ready to do your due diligence and jump deep down inside the Rabbit Hole of Bob Seger? It's deep and wonderful.....you will like the dive you took.

[@1227air500]

Always powerful lyrics. He is from Detroit and I was lucky enough to see him perform there in the late 70's. Always powerful performances.

[@randyhanson9441]

Excellent perspective Rere. For those of us in the States, this song was used by Chevy pickups for over a decade. ie.. the truck is solid like a rock. So many of us have at least heard it in passing. A song by Seger in a similar style is "Turn the Page". Looks back at all that time he spent touring with the band. Enjoy the sax. I'm guessing you have someone in your life that may have experienced something like this. Away from home, the family, friends. Wishing you always didn't have to be there. Although maybe not a rock star. Unless you know Cher. But Seger had a career that spanned six decades. A literal library of hits. Lots of great suggestions given by others, as he can go from a ballad to much more uptempo stuff.

[@billallen1307]

I think you appreciated Bob more and more as you grow older. He is like a fine wine that gets better with age.

[@richardlatham7307]

All the people on the other side of the tracks...were memories.

[@kjw1886]

This song made him a ton a money. An that's alright. He earned it. Some times it takes a couple of listens, to get the drift a song.

[@cyu5251]

Bob is the GOAT ❤❤❤❤❤

[@curtismarsh4528]

Night Moves, Hollywood Nights, just two of a dozen epic Seger classics.

[@tonydagostino6158]

The song was a huge hit for Seger when he released it and then he licensed it to Chevrolet to use in their car commercials. It became an iconic song in the adverts too. So big Seger didn't perform it in concert for decades because he felt he'd be giving Chevy a free commercial. It's only in the last decade that he began performing it again

[@thomashiggins9320]

It's been 50 years for me, and my mid 20s were like this. I worked on the loading dock of a waterbed warehouse, for just about no money. My clothes were trashed from all the particle board, and any extra money I had went to pay for university classes, so I had absolutely nothing. But I was so strong and lean and focused on getting my life moving in the direction I wanted. That was a long time ago.

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

Uncle Bob gave us good advice in the 70's & 80's.

[@jeffrelowe9393]

I’m enjoying your channel. I truly hope it catches on. I’m friends with the lead guitarist from The Silver Bullet Band (Drew Abbott). Bob Seger is simply amazing - you’re entering fertile ground. Go next to “Roll me Away,” or “Night Moves “ or “Against The Wind,” or “ Hollywood Nights,” or “Turn The Page (live)” or…well, so many more. He is a story teller and a song writer extraordinaire

[@byronfleener3408]

I think people should take a dive into some "B" sides like Sunburst or Ship of Fools

[@Tomtanker57]

Over 60 years of listening to music, and Bob Seger is in my top 5. "Downtown Train" is another good song. 👍

[@stevesullivan8705]

Very nice reaction. You can't go wrong with Bob Seger. Night Moves, Against the Wind, Roll Me Away. Too many to mention.

[@danielsitzmann8592]

He's a master story teller. One of the few musicians who can tell you about a whole lifetime in 3 minutes.

[@douglydooright4580]

Thank you Dear for picking vids with the words. Wish all you reactors did that. Most of us who grew up with these songs knew the tune, but never knew all of the words.

[@dow311]

Listening to Bob Seager make me feel cool and hip. Love driving in my car and playing his songs.

[@paulbunch7772]

Listening to great music like that reminds me I'm the same person I was 20 years ago. A little slower on the basketball court but all the same beliefs and dreams.

[@smitty60-su2xf]

SO many great songs from BOB SEGER dive deeper into this artist for sure...

[@kellybrincks]

Rick Vito is a fing is a guitar legend. The story behind his slide work... man.

[@tim8287]

Great reaction. "Night moves" is another great by him. He has many....

[@DaveB806]

Yes, Yes, Yes, PLEASE listen to the official video for “Night Moves”. Love your reaction to one of the greatest songs of all time ❤

[@RobertBreedon-c3b]

Makes me weep looking back now I was 19 when this came out in 1986 before the wife before the kids now 34 years later still married to my sweetheart two grown kids 34 and the baby is 33 now 5 grandkids the oldest of them just turned 16 wouldn't change a thing I have great life just makes weep that my youth has gone and my ego still tries to write checks my body can't cash

[@aragorn50th]

One of the great voices of Rock n Roll. Great catalog of songs, you can't go wrong.

[@jeremydean6210]

Haha I love your reaction, the song ended and you say…Umm we need to listen to Bob Seger…haha absolutely! The world needs more Bob Seger

[@shinjusmith5293]

I'm pushing 60 and I still feel this way. So thankful to have been alive during this era to have music like this influence my outlook on life and inspire me to always keep ten toes down and marching forward.

[@michaelhillmann3460]

I recommend Night Moves but you can’t really go wrong with Bob, so many great songs. Turn the Page is another classic you will enjoy all .

[@clintfrancispodcast]

"Shame on the Moon" by Bob Seger is another great song.

[@sweisbrod6109]

Bob Seegar and i are both 78 years old now. To me, the people he sees are friends that are gone now. All the guys he knew and girls he knew. He can see them in his mind....but theyre only memories now. I recommend the Bob Seegar song Night Moves as you next stop down the Bob Seegar "rabbit hole". Another group youll be able to relate to is The Marshall Tucker Band and the song Can't You See. Keep up the good work. I enjoyed your reaction. You are 21 year old young woman of color, im a 78 year old white guy. We are more alike than we are different.

[@natejames6867]

When I was 18 I worked for little just to help others but little I knew I was gaining experience. When I was 18 I played American football for many years and that helped me become a team player and to help others build on their skills in the real world. I wish all young men challenge themselves every day when they are young . Do it until it hurts and work beyond that, and you will be proud of yourself. No one else will know your struggle but you and that’s what makes you special young man.

[@alanbarger7712]

You will like him even more when you're older.

[@robertlockhart3122]

Excellent reaction..... Excellent reaction....Bob Seger feels every word he sings and you will too. Do Night Moves next.

[@scottnorvell2955]

Likely the most under appreciated rock artist of all time. So many wonderful songs. The entire Live Silver Bullet album is worth covering.

[@danoriordan8044]

The video follows his song, sitting across the tracks watching 18 year old or so kids and reflecting on those days. Bob has hit after hit and he sings with soul. More Bob aseger please

[@MikeytheGeek7711]

Bob Seger has a LOT of great songs! I recommend reacting to Night Moves, Turn the Page, Mainstreet, Roll Me Away, Travelin' Man/Beautiful Loser, We've Got Tonight, Rock And Roll Never Forgets, Old Time Rock & Roll, Hollywood Nights, Still the Same, and Feel Like a Number, but there are still more!

[@TheZepp44]

Love the channel, and it’s nice to see the younger generation appreciating music we have been listening to all our Life. Bob is a great Balladeer. Check out Roll Me Away, and Hollywood Nights. Enjoy the Journey. 🤘

[@jeffreiland7463]

Just found your channel last week. Keep cranking them out. Love your mellow and how you actually listen to the song.

[@TripletDad3]

Roll Me Away is one of the best road trip songs ever. Seger does "wistful" songs better than anyone.

[@PaulChilds-x1d]

Talk about a poet and doesn't know it: morning coming in like a ghostly light

[@russellsearch7925]

Great track. Every human being, certainly over 40 can relate to this as we reflect on our lives and past regrets, memories, and our own mortality. Every second ticks by for us all. Love how you don’t stop but stay in the moment as we the watcher/listener also do. You’re good at this reacting malarkey.

[@mikematusek4233]

A few years ago this song was used for Chevy auto commercials.

[@loveloochay]

🌬️🌬️🌬️🎼 ... I am happy to see a younger person entranced with Bob Seger , just like many of my generation have been. Bob Seger was all over American radio in the late 70s , and 80s and 90s. He has many great hits that will move you. Try - "Hollywood Nights" or "Turn The Page" ... Rock on !!! 🤟

[@jimclifford1241]

There are just so many amazing Bob Seger songs. Please take a look at 'Roll Me Away' ... A great story and an epic song.

[@robblaber6655]

I was about YOUR age when this came out ❤ We had the BEST music back in the 70s 😎👌

[@thomasripley1548]

Many hits. Turn the page, roll me away , her strut, olf time rock and roll , hollywood nighys.....etc,etc,etc.....

[@billrehberg9271]

Glad you made it...glad you're enjoying it.

[@robinbeerman4726]

Six decades of hits. What a greT story teller.

[@markhenry8669]

BOB SEGER Again The Wind 1980.🐎

[@bobb9541]

Bob Seger is a great rabbit hole to travel down.

[@robinbeerman4726]

One of my favorite artist. Try night moves, it showcases his vocals.

[@ramonsosa4071]

Well you got this old man with Parkinson’s balling 😢 thank you I love this song

[@richardingles2011]

Katmandu (Live In Detroit/1975), a real banger!

[@dalemcmillan7231]

Love this song ❤❤

[@JimFlickinger]

I really liked your reaction and that you didn't pause! I'll listen to more.

[@roadkill7314]

Bob is one of the greatest rock storytellers of all time. Try his song Roll Me Away; another great story.

[@OraJarrels]

First time viewing your channel. Saw you were reacting to Bob and had to stop in. Loved your reaction and comments so yes I subscribed and will be back. Bob is one of the greats, not a single song is bad. He does what is called Midwestern Rock. And you will find most of his songs are two parts in that he has a "summer" of his life, youth, and "autumn" older and reflecting back on that youth. His voice is enough to carry a song on it's own. Check out Night Moves. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to appreciate the music I grew up on.

[@kevinfitzpatrick8532]

Bob has a great catalog of of music 🎶🎸👍

[@MrAL2491]

Give me more Bob. How about Roll Me Away!!!

[@jimivison1565]

This song is 45 yrs old. Bob was a great storyteller. I went to one of his concerts maybe 40 years ago. He has many hits as good or better than this one. Please stay safe, healthy, and free.

[@ythomitnellum]

I stumbled across your channel earlier and I’ve been watching for over an hour, your reactions are so erudite and thoughtful it’s so refreshing to know that the future of music is in safe hands. All of the Bob songs mentioned are worth listening to, I’d also add Betty Lou’s Getting Out Tonight as a guy just having fun. After Bob there’s his East Coast of the USA soulmate Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band who just have too many songs to mention, but are maybe one of the few who are arguably better live, so if you do check him out perhaps look for live performances (the 1975 Hammersmith Apollo and (I think) 1981 No Nukes concerts are great starting points.

[@mikepesce2611]

Bob Seger is one of the all time greats. Many good songs but Night Moves and Turn the Page is where to start

[@charleslively1714]

Seen bob more than a few times he’s awesome!!

[@cletushouse906]

You are in for a great ride.

[@chuckconner3694]

Great reaction! Very thoughtful and accurate!
