I HAD NO CLUE WHO REDBONE WERE!!!!!!!!!! Blind reaction to Redbone - Come And Get Your Love

[@coletedeux]

The dance is Fancy dance in the Lakota tradition. The regalia is made especially for each dancer and is sacred to him. This one is the prairie chicken. There is also Eagle, Tatanka (buffalo), and other animal clans. Different regalia, different dancers. The fist was the symbol of A.I.M. The American Indian Movement.

Beautiful!!! ❤❤

[@springboard1994]

Thank you!! ❤

[@gwapegan61]

Megwich! First Nation from Muscowpetung Saskatchewan. Thank you for adding the historical context. My brother's children are Lakota and I remember when my cousin came back to Saskatchewan from the U.S. in the early 70's fired up for A.I.M. It was a time of change! I was jam then and it's a jam now!

[@JamesLechon]

Da`anzho! Lakota brother or sister? Isn't it "the bird" the dance ? Anyway Boozho right? That's hello right? If it isn't I'm sorry ❤ Aho!

[@coletedeux]

@@JamesLechon My mentor is a Lakota Medicine Woman who carries the Chanupa. What I know, I have learned from her, Blue Thunder Woman.

[@lavender_granny]

i'm so fortunate to have grown up with this music

[@danarussell1291]

They say that everybody loves this song!!! They couldn't find any who hated it!!! That's saying something!!! I was 15 when this was popular!!! Memories!!! ❤

[@kathytomaino6093]

Before they formed Redbone, Jimi Hendrix told them they should start an all Native American band. Jimi was part Cherokee.

[@rulab]

All the original members of Redbone were of Native American or Mexican American Heritage. This song was written by Lolly Vegas who, along with his brother Pat, were the first and longest standing members of Redbone. Lolly passed in 2010 and Pat disbanded the group BUT still technically has the rights to the group by being the only member... I love this song and remember the first time I saw this intro and how much it made me smile...lol Thank you for this one Bumblebee Whisperer! Amazing choice again!

[@magicworld3242]

Everyone was Native American. Nobody was Mexican.

[@MariaGasca-Reyes]

​​@@magicworld3242 Lolly Vegas ? The Vegas brothers ? that band was of Mix heritages And Mexicans also decend from Indigenous people too. So yes it was a indigenous band

[@hopeklemann1]

🌸 dude it was no auto-tune nothing it was pure talent

[@floydthompson9332]

Not retro, bro. CLASSIC. 🤜🏾🤛🏾

[@deniblackmore2179]

Redbone! That's a blast from the past! I always loved their earlier song, "Witch Queen Of New Orleans".

[@OLGABURROLA]

Thank you for honest and respectful comment.

[@sheryljohnson6602]

I'm going to show my age here, but I actually saw this episode of Midnight Special. I was 11 years old, and had a huge crush on the bass player. Witch Queen Of New Orleans is another great song by them.

[@MonicaGoodwin-qz5gd]

❤#Redbone.Amazing. The majority of millennials and younger don't have a clue that the Band was Native American. Wonderful reaction.❤

[@baskervillebee6097]

Redbone - 18th century Creole chattle slavery. Light skinned. Mixed Race The bright colored dance costume is called Fancy dress. The stooped posture, circling and feather display are based on the male prairie chicken.

[@bunnyhollingsworth5954]

Thank you for that information. I love the sound of their music. ❤️🐇

[@baskervillebee6097]

@@bunnyhollingsworth5954 absolutely

[@Monica-sw9ld]

Yes..a fancy dancer! It's pretty special to be one.

[@coletedeux]

It is not a costume, it is regalia and sacred to the dancer.

[@MikeCoggan]

What is amazing is this song came out when I was 14 - and it is truly one of a very few that no matter how many times I hear it, it elicits the same joy

[@JETSETJP]

Yes a forever classic.

[@GrandmaShirley-op4jm]

Please listen to more 70's bands. Black water by the Doobie Brothers, three dog night singing"Mama told me not to come". Those two bands are two of the best. I graduated in 1977. This granny is 65. I lived in the best times. Praying y'all's generation can learn from the mistakes made and we can have peace and love all over the world. Peace out. Grandma Shirley ❤❤❤

[@OLGABURROLA]

Yes, thank you he has given An opportunity to demonstrate a minimal of native culture. ❤❤❤❤

[@JaneWilson-s8x]

They are Yaqui, Shoshone and Mexican

[@i43pammy30]

Loved your reaction! Thank you! So love this song and band!

[@judgetoogood1033]

Redbone simply the best. Mexican boys from Coalinga California. We had fun playing together as kids. 😊😊😊

Redbone/The Witch Queen Of New Orleans😮😊This is their other hit single. New subscriber!

Fancy dance competition outfit.

[@debradillard315]

Midnight Special was must see TV. I remember rushing home every week to watch. The only time i wasnt a little late getting home for curfew. 12 midnight was curfew for everyone, we always thought all the mothers got together and agreed on a time. Thanks for bringing back some great memory's. There is only 2 of us left.

[@judydavis7993]

This was a favorite band for me back in the day.😅 Loved this song. I live about 15 miles from a reservation, and we love to go to their pow wows in August to watch the dancers. My favorite are the children. They are so talented, and the native clothing is beautiful.🥰

[@marilynleveque2497]

Lolly Vegas and brother Pat. Since 1960s good duo. Look them up. 1960s to 1980s.

[@leslieholland7843]

My late husband, Brien, was Native American, actually knew these guys a long time ago. Thanks for reminding me of them, DJ. His name was Brien Two Bears Holland.❤❤

[@debbiem6406]

As the first lyric depicts, Pat and Lolly Vegas were originally going to call it, “Hail” (not Hey). Love this song and this group’s from my early twenties!

[@JamesLechon]

Da`anzho!! ( Apache greeting) ❤! Thanks for the great reaction! And yes native american is fine youre ok😊 but I think we go by just Native or Indigenous or most us just identify by our tribes now! And yes we still exist now in america lol 5 million and growing stronger then ever in these trying times! Bless you mate! ❤️🖤🤍💛 btw these colors have a meaning as well 😊 and i think i may be mistaken the dancer is doing either a traditional,chicken or "the bird" dance❤

[@carolburnett190]

No offense, but I was laughing so hard waiting for that first riff to start! This is from my teenage years.

[@OLGABURROLA]

Thanks!

[@terimingle8957]

Woooo going back to my time!!! Thanks Bumblebee!! Great reaction DJ❤

Hello from a 63 year old man in Maine USA. Want another one to blow your mind. Watch Low Rider by War

[@judgetoogood1033]

Lolly and Pat Vegas come and get your love. ❤❤❤

[@joycejean-baptiste4355]

When I first heard this song when I was a kid without that intro on the radio I thought they were black. My great great grandmother was American Indian. I don't know what they call American Indians now. My ancestors were Cherokee. Thanks for the memories.

[@suzanneprock7286]

This song was very popular in the 70's, everyone loved it. I think the first time I heard it, I was in Jr. High School.

[@judylee1440]

"Witch Queen" was always my favorite of theirs.

[@deniblackmore2179]

Same here 🙂

[@hollyevoy2118]

Redbone is amazing. We were watching KZbin videos a couple weeks ago & saw them in their Regalia. Very impressive!

[@rudymarmaro]

Yeah, our music is the best, for sure. My first concert I saw was in 1976, the Doobie Brothers. Awesome. I was 15.

[@Laura_Martin42]

Oh yeah, back in the good old days! I was 12 but I remember it well!

[@judgetoogood1033]

Lolly and Pat Vegas from Coalinga cCalifornia. We were Mexican boys and played together. We did not consider us Indians but Mexican. That’s Hollywood…..😊😊😊😊

[@OLGABURROLA]

That because you love the power rangers! ❤ the natives are the real deal

For 30 years I thought a black man sang this until I saw this video

[@Jennifer_J_C]

Thanks DJ 😊

[@smokymthiker]

If you liked this you should react to Los Lonely Boys singing Heaven.

[@rhondaserges5136]

Native Americans .. each Tribe have their own customs and culture. We are all quite different from one another.

[@hopeklemann1]

so the correct term for the native American costume it's called Regalia. if you Google native American pow wow... you'll be able to see more of this and maybe receive some explanation and some instruction on what it's all about

[@LeeJaeger-dj8jd]

Hi there! I'm back again. If you want to react to something that will knock you out, look up C.W. McCall. He did a song called "Convoy" and one called " Wolf Creek Pass". They have to be heard to be believed.! Okay. I'm gone again!

[@LeeJaeger-dj8jd]

I live in Arizona. The guy in the white is the leader, I don't remember his name. A lot of Native dances are supposed to mimic the native animals in their area. The guy in the black is wearing a turquoise necklace, that style is called a Squash Blossom. I'm not sure which tribe they are from. By the way, I'm a Pentatonix. Where did all of your PENTATONIX reactions go to? I need more, more, more!

[@THEPATRIOT1000]

More, ABBA. Queen, Journey, BeeGees, Elvis please

[@pdxoregon1]

Happy sexy music.

Good, huh?

[@candacemay7187]

I've been sitting here yelling at ya for 5:43 minutes to stop pausing and get to it! I've never seen your channel until right this minute, but this shouldn't be a 17 minute reaction. Stop with all the pausing -- unless that's what your subs like. Personally, it irritates me. No hate and good luck with your channel. I was just visiting.

[@JaneWilson-s8x]

Well we love DJ so feel free to move on

[@JamesLechon]

Oh btw redbone is a derogatory term for a half breed 😢 for Native American and Mexican Mainly.

[@aposamoa8475]

What kind of AMERICAN are you.............?

I'm Australian, not American :)

Pass, 5 minutes to get into the song, is too unbearable.
