All the crazy bits about that video and the recording of it on two separate continents, have been pointed out already. There is a podcast by Cory Wong, talking to Henrik Linder about the making of this song, and the whole of this album, Turbo. Check out “Follow The Light”, “Turbo” (the title track) and “Ring of Saturn” from the same album. Only “Follow the Light” has Jonah on vocals, the rest don’t. But they’re all absolutely mind blowing, and feature great solos by Henrik and also one of the horn/flute players…. 🔥🔥🔥 Enjoy, and thanks for that reaction

Thank you for commenting and your suggestions. I'm looking forward to doing more reactions to Dirty Loops & Cory Wong. 🙂

The horn you missed is a double bell euphonium.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Hi Jeff! Thank you for the information. I appreciate it. 🙂

[@jh4freedom2]

This performance was done during COVID and quarantines. Cory Wong and his horn section (called the "Wong Notes!!!") were in Minneapolis while Dirty Loops were in Stockholm. Dirty Loops never met Cory Wong in person until their current US tour in 2024.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you! 🙂

[@RobertClaeson]

The brass section is also known as The Hornheads.

[@jh4freedom2]

@@RobertClaeson Yes, they were the "Hornheads" when they worked with Prince (as did Cory) and they are the "Wongnotes" when they work with Cory. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6ewhneCrrJ2nJYsi=hKxxEcIzTuEpWGwg

[@andersgranstrom7128]

I really hear Stevie in the singing, last part of the song (when the shades go on)... Love it all - love the horn section! This one done during the crappy covid-period, so they were not in the same room. Even though it feels like they were! 🙂I think Michael would have liked this version.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you for your comments. Yes, I loved it all as well. 🙂

[@carinarodebak9419]

You seem to taken to Dirty Loops' music. Not complaining, I like what I hear as well. Have a nice day. I'll need one. A visit from the plumber has just assured me of an upcoming hefty bill.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Yes, I am impressed with their talent but also their personalities. I hope your plumber is in a good mood and give you a huge discount on the bill (hey, one can dream). Best of luck. 🙂

[@ellenstergaardgravesen1011]

Many of the players in the horn section used to play with Prince - they are just soooo tight! Cory is a great guitarist - he's playing is much in the background here but you should check out some of his work too (besides more Dirty Loops of cause) :-)

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Hi Ellen! Thank you for commenting. Your comments are especially important because I forgot to add Cory Wong's channel to the description (remedied now). Yes, I'll have to check out some of Cory's work, but I won't forget to come back to Dirty Loops for lots more! 🙂

[@VoxTone2009]

Grace Kelly (blue hair) is also one of the big attractions at the large jazz festivals. Joining the Hornheads here which is the collective horn section which plays with Cory Wong on occasions for example.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

@@VoxTone2009 Thank you for the added information. I appreciate it. 🙂

[@birger4788]

And maybe I’ll be the first one to point this out, but this video is filmed on two different continents, DL in Sweden and Cory and brass section in the US. They used similar props, lights, carpet and even same cameras and then Aron put the videos together.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

@@birger4788 That's awesome. Thank you for pointing that out. 🙂

[@ingmarkronfeldt6174]

Liked your reaction! But I wonder the following. *In the comments* , did you see: *Plant supervisor: Monstera Aloe-Vera* (two types of plants, of course) *Eurovision judge: Främling McGremlin* (reference to a Swedish Eurovision winning song, and to gremlins, they go sort of well with the Thriller lyrics) *Security: Ghost busters* (goes well with the Thriller lyrics, and sort of from the right time) *Head of Security: Mike Wazowzki* (green one-eyed figure from the movie Monsters Inc., also fits with Thriller. Lousy head of security, I am sure) *Catering: Cookie monster* (another monster to go with Thriller, not good fr catering, would eat all the cookies) *Aron/Cory stunt double: "I see dead people" kid from sixth sense* (goes with Thriller of course) *Henrik stunt double: Edward scissorhands* (goes with Thriller, but not doing Henrik stunts!) That was all just for fun, but we also see that they care about not forgetting to mention those involved (while also fitting it in with Thriller, I guess): *Belgian Batman/Lyrics writer for Follow the light: Tineke Melkebeek* (We forgot to write that ...) So a late recognition of Tineke's participation in writing Follow the light, but I am not sure why she is a Belgian Batman, but I guess that would go with Thriller as well. Sometimes the references are to hard for me to grasp. Then at the very end, something in Swedish: *"Livet är en fest!!!!"* - Life is a party/celebration (from a Swedish prog song from the 70s by Nationalteatern)

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you! No, I missed most of that. I think I did mention something I caught, but many of those references I wouldn't have recognized anyway - lol. I shall keep watch on other videos though. 🙂
