[@hazi5961]

Collective Soul are one of the more underrated bands from the 90s. They put out some really excellent music.

[@bradsiddons8571]

Do "she gathers rain" or "where the river flows"

[@eddiepierce7028]

Totally agreee

[@lonfowler9843]

This 70's Boomer agrees.

[@_alifeallmine_]

They’re still putting out great music, the new album is excellent.

[@screwyootube1]

@@_alifeallmine_ yes! It’s a shame that they aren’t having anywhere near the success (on Mainstream Rock radio - they stopped having crossover, or “pop” singles success after the first 2 albums) they enjoyed during their first 10 years, because they still make great music!

[@andyluzenski1288]

Collective Soul is the most genuine band out there. I had the pleasure of making a dream come true and meet my favorite band and they are the nicest guys in the world.

[@lionskoolaid7521]

These dudes were so underrated.

[@5yearsout]

You got that right, they sit atop my list of "Why aren't These Guys Bigger?", Chevelle is a close second on the list.

[@jmparker78]

They’re still around.

[@5yearsout]

​@@jmparker78 They put out a new album recently that is solid as always.

[@IdinDunifin]

Underrated but so severely over-played on just a few choice songs that it became an annoyance.

[@tweitner]

I've seen a few interviews with Ed Roland, the lead singer and songwriter, and he's one of the most gracious and nice people I've seen interviewed. I love Collective Soul, too many good songs to pick a favorite.

[@alberterickson4614]

Greatest band in alternative rock history! You should also check out Shine or The world I know

[@syx3s]

i was born in 84. this was the first new album i ever owned. _soooooooooooooo_ good. this live performance is spot on too.

[@jdmensing]

Great record

[@antonettekilpatrick7850]

Thank you. I'm a huge Collective Soul fan. I've seen them many times live. You're the best Jamel. Peace and much love.

[@digitalis2977]

Collective Soul owned the 90s the way Train owned the 00s. They were everywhere, and you knew them...even if you didn't know you knew them.

[@jtf2dan]

collective soul had a lot of great hits in the 90s......very catchy songs...listen to SHINE then Gel,...then Smashing Young Men, December, Where the River Flows, .......then precious declaration,.... then the World I Know

[@matthausner4006]

They just Rocked ALPINE VALLEY music theatre in SE WI last week! If you ever get a chance to see them do not miss it!

[@mariadawson5247]

Amazing group. One of my favorites and still are👍😎 "Shine" is an amazing song of theirs also😊

[@southcarolinagrizfan1594]

I remember watching Collective Soul music videos on MTV early in the morning.

[@robertanderson2355]

I cannot believe I just found this reaction tonight. I've been following you since 2020 (during the pandemic) and I missed this! CS became my favorite band in 1995, I've seen them in concert 15 times. They are still my top two favorites along with Foo Fighters. They have so many good songs and putting out great music now! From this performance they also did a cover of Crazy Train that the crowd went nuts for!

[@lisalovemc717]

Love this band. They never got the props they deserved.

[@RetroSoulGirl]

Glad you picked a live version because Collective Soul is one of those bands that kinda sounds better live, and that says a lot because their studio versions are already TOP NOTCH! I recommend you listen to Collective Soul's newer song, "Right As Rain", to hear how they're still rockin!

[@richardrydlewicz4900]

So happy you got to Collective Soul! Love, love, love them! They have so many great songs. Keep the reactions coming 👍

[@RB-oc7ti]

Love Collective Soul! They (Ed Roland) had a really good handle on writing simple catchy guitar based rock/pop songs. Very consistently good. Caught a good wave of popularity during the initial post grunge movement. I have moved on musically to heavier rock and metal since those days, but feel nostalgic and warmth to this band and its solid output. They were/are quite good.

[@cherylreichardt]

One of my favorites! The guitar work on this song is amazing!

[@heatherbroda7950]

Just saw them this summer for the first time! Always want to.

[@sirluke7]

I love Collective Soul. During the Pandemic they made about 3 albums worth of music. Can't wait to hear all of it.

[@MichaelMyers-pj2uk]

Indeed ! They released Vibrating last summer and that album is so cool ! You can hear the old Collective Soul sound with new stuff. Amazing

[@mr_anakin_guy]

​@@MichaelMyers-pj2uk it's such a good album

[@barrypeirson3710]

3:28 "Hes not Heavy, He's my Brother" is my favorite Neil Diamond song. This song rocksm Great reaction. 4:01 lol Woodstock '99 despite all the criticism it gets was epic!

[@Noledad77]

Collective Soul is still one of my favorite 90's bands to this day. Their debut album was really good and their follow-up, "Dosage" was really good as well. "Heavy" came from their 2nd album, as did "The World I Know" and a rarely-played song called "Dandy Life", which was on the soundtrack for the movie "The Skulls" and was sung by lead guitarist Ross Childress.

[@Iron-Bridge]

You nailed the underlying meaning of the song perfectly. ☝☝👍

[@tinawidmann8973]

Collective Soul is one of my favorite bands. I've seen them so many times in concert. Thank you for this video! Hopefully you can check out more of their songs. The World I Know, December, Shine...there's so many good ones!

[@carldavis1407]

Dude! The last vid I saw from you, I was under the impression you were done. Then, here you are with my all time fav Collective Soul tune. Yeah, Shine rocks, no doubt about it...but Heavy is da shiznit 😎

[@zappa1952]

Actually saw them at the Linn County Fair in Oregon about 10 years ago. The lead singer was very cool. Talked to the audience and invited some little kids onstage between songs. Then he told them they'd better get behind the amps b4 the next song cuz their ears could get damaged. He explained to the audience that he had kids. They sounded great too. 😁

[@anthonyweston4813]

One of my favorite bands! see them live twice!

[@cynthiastanley35]

These guys went to the same school as I did. I was in HS when they were in Junior High. I graduated HS in 1980. I had a feeling that they were going to make it to the big times. Even if we had no connection at all I would still have loved their music when it was released and played on the radio.💖

[@Thomas116-m2n]

[@clemmycat]

Wow, they were incredible live!!

[@elizabethlozano9358]

Awesome to see this reaction on your channel!! Collective Soul, such a great band! Thanks Jamel 👍👍👍

[@melissaschmitt2364]

Love Collective Soul!! One of my all time favorite bands 💜

[@beckieabbott9342]

Love Collective Soul! More please!

[@mask316]

These guys are a never skip when songs come up to play thank you be loved you are

[@TheFlashpoint69]

When I played in a cover band we used to play this... great song

[@edtrembicki-guy993]

I grew up on Zep, Sabbath and Rush. These guys continue to carry the torch. If you haven't seen them live, DO IT!!! Thanks Jamel, you should sample a few more, like "This" "Contagious" "Happiness" Not to mention "New Vibration" When Ed Roland walks on stage, the crowd stands and usually doesn't sit for the rest of the gig. 😎🎶

[@TexasMagnolia]

We’ve lost another iconic, legendary artist. On 1/11/23 - Guitar Master Jeff Beck past away. Jeff Beck was beyond a Master. A Guitar God that you have to hear to appreciate. Beck was the epitome of Making a Guitar Sing…no words needed. His career is a must read! If you choose to honor, I’m supplying a link of Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart & their iconic song “People Get Ready”. kzbin.info/www/bejne/imWWnmmamLKebLc

[@GTO4now]

YES! Georgia boys kicking it! Great band!

[@faithnyou1732]

Love, love, love Collective Soul! One of my favorite bands! We saw them in concert with ZZ Top last July for my birthday. Best show I've EVER witnessed, and I spent my teens through the 70s, so I've seen a LOT of concerts. Collective Soul is probably in my top 3 best concerts I've ever been to! Would be great if you could react to one or all three of these. Easily 3 of their BEST: "Shine", "December", and "The World I Know" (links below). Thanks for this great reaction, Jamel! ✌💙✌ Shine - kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZ6Tk3xuZ7etlc0 December - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJbbpJSqepJ3i80 The World I Know - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGi3fYegprqspck

[@brookamos5787]

Jamel_AKA_Jamal, thanks for posting the three reaction requests from my wife Mindy. She's been a longtime fan of yours and has always wanted to submit requests. I hope you enjoyed the ones she chose. I love what you do as well. I appreciate your humility and kindness. You're a good person and we both think highly of you. I don't know if you will see this, but if you do I have two requests myself and if you ever get the chance check out Samantha Fish "Gone for Good" live at Telluride and then Joanna Connor Band "Walkin' Blues" live at Norwood, MA @ Carty BBQ. Thanks my friend!

[@clemmycat]

Thank you soooo much!!! I’ve actually never seen this live before!! This band is from Stockbridge, Georgia!!! 🤘🇺🇸😊🤗(suburban Atlanta.) My home state👏

[@cynthiastanley35]

My home state too.

[@stevensonchambers5577]

Collective Soul convinced me to stop being lazy and learn this song on the guitar. It's played in drop tuning so one day I finally tuned my guitar down to practice heavy. The goosebumps I got from hearing these powerful chords come through my amplifier made it all worth it.

[@dallaskitchens9643]

A song called better now and Hollywood by collective soul are two that kick ass

[@kenstanley2567]

Definitely check out some more of these guys!

[@tifanym747]

You can't really go wrong with Collective Soul! I'd add December to the recs already here

[@CreativeWarrior-]

Jeff Beck just passed away. You really should watch his DVD, Live @ Ronnie Scott's. Watch all of it. It's truly a masterpiece of a show and you'll be blown away. You won't want it to end! Trust me on this.

[@dirizarry8117]

Love Collective Soul

[@Alewifes_Husband]

I admit I've only ever seen a little bit of Collective Soul live performances. The one I remember was with an orchestra, and was really good. But this is basically just like listening to the studio cut! I love this song, it's my favorite Collective Soul song, and I always wished it was about 2 minutes longer! Thanks for the reaction, Jamel!! P.S. Woodstock '99 was an unmitigated disaster but this was a terrific performance.

[@barbaracollins385]

Georgia boys. Their first album. Allegations and Things Left Unsaid is a story in itself. Every song a hit.

[@jessicalee7119]

I think the song, Shine, is the one song I remember of theirs ~ it's a great song.

[@megdelaney3677]

💜Collective Soul!!! Please react to -Shine -Gel -The World I Know -December -Where the River Flows -Thanks!!!

[@slimsantilli4476]

I saw them open for Van Halen in the mid 90s. They were pretty solid.

[@thedoctor8]

This was before things got absolutely crazy at Woodstock 99. One of the first days of the festival. Good documentary on the disaster of that festival now on HBO.

[@kenhall6525]

Great song from a very underrated band, they have some amazing songs

[@tb225]

Collective Soul, Matchbox 20 and Live = 😁👍🏻

[@davidgossoo486]

Another great song by this band, the world I know, in case you haven't heard it, I definitely recommend it jamel I think you might like it

[@rosiebarker6285]

This is even better all these years later!

[@jules3048]

Yay! Love this song! And u r so right. Ppl love to dish out probs to me as if I dont have my own. and id argue i have more than they do. but they just dish it out. worst is when they dont ask or seem to care what ur going thru… 😤

[@tunetitan5683]

Damn ... I forgot how good this band was. What a debut album ... 'Hints Allegations and Things Left Unsaid'.

[@jmurray2018]

Wowz I can’t believe after all this time you finally play a band I like anything by them after 2000 is a must you just gotta play more there still going strong which is good for me as I’ve only known them for two years I’m just not old enough to grow up with their back catalogue but it’s all amazing

[@nextmini201]

You should hear shine by them....awesome song

[@et2petty]

Jeff Beck died today. I've asked for reactions to Jeff Beck songs but I haven't noticed you get to them anyway he was very unique guitarist no one sounds like

[@whisperienced]

Love this band. Another band with a similar sound is I Mother Earth. They have a song called One More Astronaut. Also sorry on the stream yesterday I asked for a New Orleans is Sinking reaction but you have reacted to that, don't know why I couldn't find it before.

[@ranieraandreoli4478]

Buongiorno Jamel😊🤗☕🌟🌻🌟🌺🌿

[@kevie1166]

Excellent choice. Keep going with these guys. It’s a lengthy ride

[@angelagoodwin5758]

One of the best bands of the 90s. A boomers opinion.

Precious declaration is my fave

I world I know my favorite song Wendy Thompson

[@tjmctube]

I think you would like "Shine".

[@jayschultz202]

Woodstock 99 wasn't bad in terms of performances, there were actually some terrific performances. It was just badly managed and terrible conditions for the kids. Turned into chaos.

[@pdog547]

Not a bad version, the studio is better - but they got the riff down which is the most important part! Great song.

Ok Jamal, i missed you so im back!😊

[@mbroussardnthaboot]

Oh how I wish this song was literally talking about a heavy person...🤣

[@deejayturtle]

This was such a great band back in the day. They were the closing act at the tech festival I went to in Birmingham, Alabama to watch Harry Mack for the second time. These guys are not good live, not anymore anyway.

[@AndysRambles]

They were amazing all the times I saw them. Even in 2019 right before covid.

[@kearansheppard12]

Thought it was Frank Mir on bass for a second

[@screwyootube1]

This is a great performance - they certainly proved they could perform live - but the studio version would sound better, simply because the sound is just naturally “dissipated” (for lack of a better word), being out in such a wide open area. The crowd noise also distracts, just a little, from the music. But it’s still a great vid. Good reaction, nonetheless!

[@et2petty]

[@rambowbizz]

Fire.

[@SKULLFVK3D]

fun fact the record this is on, is the demo. they said at record company, the demo sounds fantastic, dont rerecord it
