First Time Hearing Bob Seger - “Even Now” Reaction | Asia and BJ

[@DizJakeOG]

Bob does NO wrong. I'd like to dedicate this one to my Mama. She just passed and she loved Bob!

[@michaelasay8587]

Diz,..so sorry

[@jeffjones6221]

Bob is Americana, like Mellencamp. Blue collar rock and roll.

[@weslennon3425]

Bob Seger is one of my very favorite singers and writers.

[@rhondagreene637]

Saw him for the 4th time in concert in 2019. He was 76 and he rocked it out like the first time I saw him.

[@klasseact6663]

I'm blessed to have grown up in the D! I'm 53 and grew up with his music, I wad 12 when this came out and it was HUGE❗️

[@surlechapeau]

Asia & BJ, you'll love his "Rock And Roll Never Forgets" and "Katmandu"!!!! BANGERS!!

[@davidbordonaro1631]

Yes and Hell yes !

[@kensettle3184]

Few singers have a vocal range that can match Bob Seger, His ability to go from low to very high notes with a ton of soul is incredible!

[@larryhudgins3647]

Bob was my very first concert. He opened for the Beach Boys and did "Ramblin Gamblin Man"! That was his first hit in 1969. Give a listen!

[@robertglanville6558]

To this day that live version is still my favorite.

[@rikbas71]

I love that you two dig Seger. The Legend and The Silver Bullet Band are so relevant, even now.

[@tylerhackner9731]

He’s always so raw and real and just plain good

[@willlong8942]

You cannot go wrong with Bob Seger. I've been front row during his prime. All of my life I've had a visceral connection to his music. I own every (as far as I know) LP he ever recorded (don't worry, I don't have a "record player" to play them). "Even Now" I still connect with his music after all these many years.

[@keithjones7390]

I see what you did there at the end of your comment 😅 I've only got four of his albums, Stranger in Town is my favourite.

[@willlong8942]

@@keithjones7390 😅

[@kevinsieger147]

Keep going down seger rabbit hole. He never disappoints

[@MARKB3946]

Great song. Bob is the man. You can't go wrong with his music.

[@maril1379]

It's great how you listen to different genres. My favorite music is from the 80s. Thumbs up from NYC to Texas!

[@flash1660]

I got to see him at my high school in 69 and many times since! My favorite’s are like a rock and roll me away I love your reactions keep it up ! I feel the same way about my wife 53 years yesterday

[@danj312]

Yes yes More Bob Seger more more more!! And yes keyboard and Piano.

[@suprchickn7745]

One of the things I love about Bob (among many) is his songcraft and arrangements. Every song has so much polish, with the breakdowns, solos, emotional buildups, right down to beautiful satisfying ending. Big, big fan! Keep up the awesome reactions! Another beautiful love song by Bob is "Always In My Heart". It's one of my wife and I's favorite songs.

[@graydonfowler4289]

Brave strangers is one of my favorite Seger songs

[@keithjones7390]

Mine too, great album as well

[@metalmark1214]

When you think Bob Seger, you just think Rock N Roll.

[@davidfoucher2050]

One of Bob Seger greatest song Fire Down Below I guarantee you will really really like it

[@yolandabrooksqueenofsevens]

Y’all this was my cut🔥🔥🔥🔥I love Bob Seger❤

[@elizabethbowden1574]

I absolutely love watching you guys,especially when Asia hears Steve Perry. He has always been a favorite of mine too. ❤

[@johnboehmer6683]

I've been looking for someone to react to this one, you're the first, thanks! SO much positive energy to this one, WAY underrated. Bob's got that solid catalog chock+full of 20+ hits, this one isn't one of them, yet so sonically, emotionally powerful.

[@AsiaandBJ]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@eddie623]

Asia and bj you two know how to bring it keep up the good work 👍

[@AsiaandBJ]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

I love that man. ❤️

[@WoodsintheBurg94]

Many years ago when I was a runner I had this on a mix tape. I timed it to where this song would come on around the last 1/2 mile to give me the extra push to finish strong.

[@stevenjohannesson316]

Seger has always been one of those people at the very top of his craft. Story goes Bob was in a bar with Glenn Frey of the Eagles, listening to a local band, and told Frey, “They’re never going to make it as they aren’t writing their own material”. Frey was aspiring at the time and said something like, “what it what you write is bad”. Bob is supposed to have said, “Oh it will be bad, most of it will be bad, but keep writing until you come up with a good one”. That’s why Seger’s music is top notch, he just kept writing songs until he got something good.

[@Jerry-up8bk]

Bob Seger and Glen Frye grew up together,played in a garage band together,After Glen passed Seger Dedicated a couple of songs in Memory to him ,Glens Song and another 1 . Bob Seger wrote a lyric in the Eagles song Heart ache tonight and sang background Vocals in it with the Eagles!

[@robertglanville6558]

Bob Seger is one of the best story tellers, with THAT voice. Damn.

[@scotthall5085]

Someone mentioned here that this was NOT a hit song for Bob. It was #12 on the Billboard hot 100 in 1983. That’s a hit. Great tune.

[@keithjones7390]

Some great rock songs from Bob, House Behind a House, Roll Me Away, Feel Like a Number and Building Thunderbirds to name a few.

[@kevinminne1460]

They’ve reacted to Roll me away about 8-10 months ago.

[@bostonwhofan]

I'm 57 now and have been listening to Bob Seger songs since I was a kid. I've got most of his albums and know most of his songs. I've always liked his music, but it never made it into my top tier of artists. Until about 2 years ago or so. The lyrics to his songs absolutely blow me away now as I can really appreciate the meaning as I continue to get older along with my wife of 32 years. I'm kicking myself now for never getting to see him live. Another great love song by Bob is "The Real Love". I don't think I've ever seen anyone react to it on youtube yet.

[@Black66]

The Distance is such a great album! Love Even Now!

[@garysunshine9643]

Even Now, Bob Seger's songs are still incredible

[@steverobertson6748]

Seen Bob 3 x in Toronto, always the best ever!,,,

[@kensettle3184]

You are both right!!! It was organ AND piano on this tune!! The ending had a piano figure with a background Hammond B3 organ blend.

[@bobdelp2023]

( THE DISTANCE ) 😊YOU GUYS HAVE DONE 2 OF THE HITS ON IT: ROLL ME AWAY & THIS, THE OTHERRR HUGE HIT WAS : SHAME ON THE MOON 😊

[@davidbordonaro1631]

I saw him (them) 3 times and they are 3 of the best nights of my life ... where sex wasn't involved

[@jeffreyg607]

Long time resident of California but born and raised in Central Illinois and those roots never leave you, and Bob Seger is that tether to my Midwestern roots :)

[@donluce4883]

BJ, even now you have Asia to help you stand tall!❤

[@janetf23]

Bob Seger feels like the quintessential favorite American man.👏

[@keithhayes844]

Bob Seger is a very straight-up guy who sings universal songs in plain language that everyone can understand. You two really need to check out "Hollywood Nights" -- a true Bob Seger classic. You'd should also check out "Brave Strangers." It's one of Bob Seger's best songs and no one ever reacts to it. You'll also like "You'll Accomp'ny Me." I guarantee all three of these tunes!

[@themetalchica]

Yall need to be modeling or acting. You're individually stunning *and* you're a gorgeous couple! Glad I found you by searching for this, my favorite Seger song!

[@johncasamassa2840]

Next you have to listen to 'Little Victories'! It's off the same album and it's an amazing song!

[@elizabethbowden1574]

You guys need to check out The Eagles "I Can't Tell You Why"full session version.

[@jimmypadgett1106]

Still say one day y'all aught to do Bob Segars Katmandu. Its not your typical Segars song. But it was a pretty fair hit

[@Jerry-up8bk]

It's Seger Not Segar!

[@ML-un1oi]

Great reaction! You should go deeper by checking Bob out when he was with the lost heard and Bob Seger system. So many great songs. I to am from D! So much music to listen to growing up on first AM radio CKLW KEENER 13 and afterFM came out Wabx, W4 The Riff. Keep up the good work Asia n B.J❤

[@haroldzitman8843]

Asia, you heard guitar, organ and piano. Great reaction/commentary by you and BJ.

[@janabraam7963]

One of the best things to ever come out of Detroit! I love your reactions. You should listen to his song FAMOUS FINAL SCENE.

[@ryanfeit1420]

Great reaction you guys!! Bob Seger is so awesome. I really hope you listen to "Blame On The Moon" which came out around the same time and is a hauntingly beautiful song. Also, I recommend watching the film "Mask" (1985) starring Cher, Sam Elliott (he played one of the brothers in "Tombstone") and Eric Stoltz. The soundtrack has many great Bob Seger songs and other great 70's songs. Cher gives her best performance in this movie, I believe. Love you guys 😂😂

[@quintondees4501]

Bob.....L E G E N D

[@suprchickn7745]

I love your reactions, you're absolutely some of my favorites. I am also a massive Bob Seger fan, I've been a fan since I was about eight years old. Hopefully, you'll check out one of Bob's best-written songs called "Famous Final Scene". Most reactors haven't given it a shot but I guarantee you this song is top-tier and will give you all the feels. Trust me! Seger fans, back me up!

[@robertrecords8650]

You should listen SHAME ON THE MOON It is a beautiful song

[@bobdelp2023]

NIIIIIIIICCCCEEEEE!!! 😊OHHHHH YEAH

[@Meyzen76]

🔥The Fire Inside is another great one from Bob! Check it!!! 🤙🏼

[@johnathanstruble1064]

Yup. !

[@jamesglover4802]

I absolutely love you both... I've watched your reactions to Elvis... And loved watching your adoration for him grow ... N BOB SEGER..... The way you Get it ! ....I'm 55 yrs old n was the odd kid out cause everybody else was into Kiss .... N whatnot.... N I just wasn't feeling it... I love watching the youngers GET IT !... thank you.. PS. Bob seger can say more with an "oooohh yeah yeah yeaaaah" than Bruce Springsteen can say with a 8 minute cathchy tune.., not saying he's a no-talent bumb or nothing... Just that he doesn't compare (soul wise)... To a Bob seger oral course Elvis

[@MikeCoggan]

Check out "2+2" it's early Bob. American Storm is underrated and similar to Even Now

[@user-oq8np5ew9d]

Great. Job

[@zoostew8354]

Way underrated song….💪👍✌️

[@laurakali6522]

Gotta listen to The Famous Final Scene.

[@ericklein5927]

Detroit hometown boy!!!!

[@johnlillis1161]

ok Asia i thought you was going to help me out and get BJ and yourself a listen to Johnny Winter and Edgar Winter Tobacco Road Live video lol come on guys you will Love it and seeing im from Detroit i do Love all the Bob Seger have you listen to Turn The Page yet great song thanks

[@Hopefully_Sohyang]

💛

[@CreepinDeath359]

Play Hollywood Nights it's his best song.

[@ericskivers6643]

Yes , his voice is great . But for me, it’s his writing that blows me away . Been a fan since around 1976. IMO he’s up there with the very best American lyricists

[@scottvanhille5688]

What about Bob? Btw, please check out that movie with Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss. Bob Seger is a legend.

[@Steve-kl9vg]

It was a B3 Hammond Organ

[@dustinparadoxxx148]

Glad yall fans tho

[@rjh862]

Really surprised that you guys are turned on to Bob seger. I've noticed that although he is national and maybe even international he's definitely more prominently regional it seems to me like he's a big deal in Michigan but once you get outside of Michigan it's kind of so-so. But it's cool check out some old Bob seger back when he was with the Bob seger system. I worked with a drummer many years ago that was the son of Bob seger's bass player from the seger system Dan honaker and Dan honaker Junior. In fact Dan honaker senior the bass player sat in with us one night at a gig !

[@ryanfeit1420]

Sorry. I meant "Shame On The Moon". Oops. Typo.

[@patrickgoode8343]

BOB got a pilots license and plane so after the show he could fly home and be there for his kids when they woke up

[@JamesSmith-ti5jc]

I’m just say’n, Bob is a BAD/A- -, I saw him in concert, back in th day, Against The Wind tour, he had throat cancer, & was retiring, (Thank GOD 4 Miracles), Awesome, Awesome 😎😎👍👍

[@benjithecat1294]

Hey guys, can you react to "Amira Willighagen - O Mio Babbino Caro - HD - André Rieu (Love in Venice) Maastricht - 2014" please?

[@mikestevenson576]

This whole reaction video industry is hilarious. Young black people giving us a dopamine hit by pretending to like our music....who could've predicted this as an income stream, but I love it. You guys are great at it. And since you mentioned the piano...he borrowed Springsteen's piano player Roy Bittan for this song.

[@dustinparadoxxx148]

There are way better Seger than that for someone who hasent never herd it try night moves

[@johnthegreek5836]

I forgot all about Bob Seger

[@vincenthewlett4329]

Try " The Fire Inside " by Bob Seger
