First Time Hearing | Burton Cummings - I’m Scared

[@kathrynjarlov5166]

Burton is awesome.

[@Lakeshore14]

Love this man’s voice. Have seen him a few times in concert and he really delivers. Why is he not in the Hall of Fame. 👏👏🥰

[@paulmorris8762]

He should be in the Hall of Fame

[@CarollPearson-o7i]

He sure should be! But will never be....

Burton is wonderful! Those 1st 2 songs were his. You need to watch KZbin for more Guess Who!

[@karenhollis9611]

WOW! Someone reacting to my favorite singer of all times!! I have followed him since the 60’s! That makes me seasoned! I have seen him 3 times in concert. This man is in his 70s and can still sing well. He has so many hits with and without The Guess Who. I have all of his cds. My very favorite song of his is Heavenly Blue. He is a true ICON especially in Canada.

[@Lifewithstan2020]

Thank you for watching

[@Deborah4Antiques]

Burton is one of a kind!

[@lyndagolding7290]

That first song was These Eyes and yes he sings it. Great reaction as always Stan.

[@Lifewithstan2020]

Thank you so much and thank you for answering my question

[@kristipenwell8611]

I was just a kid when this came out but my Dad had this album and that's how I got to know his music. The song you were wondering about that he played on the piano first is called "These Eyes" and it was a big hit for him. Also, "My Back Yard"was one I liked as well. Its a bit more upbeat. To clarify, in this case what I mean by "upbeat" is the rhythm of it lol)But I do like this one too. I liked your reaction. This took me back to listening to my dads albums on the stereo!

[@paulmorris8762]

don't forget Stand Tall

[@brucehuston5219]

Yes those are his these eyes and laughing and many more from Winnipeg manitoba Canada

[@bobbiewallace4008]

Great reaction to a great song. Trying to get dressed for work and loving this. Thank you

[@debbiebell1801]

Break it to Them Gently is one of his best!

[@lightingprotogo]

Burton Cummings was the voice behind the hit machine called The Guess Who. American Woman ring a bell? The Lenny Kravitz one you recently compared to the original. The first one he tinkled on the ivories was “Sour Suite” before he started talking. The one you are thinking of was “These Eyes”. Burton plays a nice flute solo on “Undun” which is a stellar track. “Albert Flasher”and “Running back to Saskatoon” are a few personal faves from when he was with them. Far too many hits to mention them all, but here’s a few: “Share the Land”, “ No Time”, “No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature”, “Clap for Wolfman”. You really should go back and listen to the album cut of of American Woman with the extended intro. just saying..😎

[@bozomahoney]

Burton fan here / ♥♥♥ BURTON CUMMINGS ! He lives in the next town from me :)

[@bjm9071]

His greatest solo song was "Stand Tall", a really powerful song. Would love to hear your reaction!

[@scottcampbell2707]

This is a pretty good version of "Stand Tall" from 1976: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2G6lWuofLyVd5I

[@tommykinikin9335]

I've never heard this song. Good song!

[@jimnicosia5934]

Nice, Stan.

[@rod9845]

You might know already but Burton Cummings was the lead singer of the Guess Who for 10 years. That start of that first song he played that you want to know more about was called “These Eyes” Check out also another early hit called “ Laughing”. This guy has had so many great hits! Great show…..keep up the good work!

[@CarollPearson-o7i]

Randy Bachman was also responsible for those songs!

[@adam.4487]

Back to my young 20's again. I have this record. :)))

[@fairenough7984]

My teens. The Guess Who was first concert at age 14. Great, great band Great, great memories of the best era of music ever. The 70s

[@LouiseMaeAllardBrouder-po1gs]

Yes, he wrote his songs 🇨🇦❤

[@bobsteinzig]

Laughn' was that 1st song from the GREATEST ROCK VOICE ever

[@CarollPearson-o7i]

YES!!

[@TemuMuuMuu]

Dang! Are you psychic or something? I just got this song stuck in my head today! The first song was called "Sour Suite" awesome song! Second one was "Laughing." (Or maybe the other way around...) But yeah, they're his!!! Glad I found your channel, enjoyed this! You should check out "Take One Away" it's another Burton Cummings song, an 80's one, almost over the top, almost cheesy, but somehow, not!

[@TemuMuuMuu]

Ooops, and the middle one was "These Eyes."

[@stephanieellis5399]

One of my favourite Burton Cummings song, if not my favourite, is I Will Play You A Rhapsody.

[@cgluck]

A member of the Guess ho. They where his songs. Yes, I believe he was so good, but so underrated

[@RonaldLund-y5d]

the first song was a number 1 "These Eyes" it was a song from his days with The Guess Who. He was in the group with Randy Bachman. Bachman later founded ( BTO }Bachman Turner Overdrive

[@joecantu8131]

Yeah Burton Cummings saying with the Guess who had big hits like American woman these eyes laughing that was the other song that he had the intro to also he came out with a few hits as a solo artist I'm scared which was just played break it to them gently was a great one that he's saying you should check that one out also stand tall those three were pretty big hits of his when he went solo if I remember right I think he was from Canada but I'm not positive

[@joecantu8131]

Also another fun hit of his was a song called get down

[@brucemorrow5271]

Winnipeg

[@CynthiaNicol-h1w]

You should hear the other songs he does. Amazing

[@marceldagenais1893]

Check out the. guess who his previous band with randy bachman.

[@rp7326]

The first song was Sour Suite written by Burton Cummings. The song leading into your reaction song was Laughing written by Cummings and Randy Bachmann.

[@tommiesmith3191]

The name of the first song is called "Sour Suite". It's from an album called "So Long Bannatyne" by the Canadian band The Guess Who. And yes it's his own composition. And the second song is called "These Eyes" and finally the third song was called "Laughing" The last two were co-written with Randy Bachman. When Randy and Burton were members of The Guess Who. Before Randy went to form Bachman Turner Overdrive. Hope all of that helps.

[@paulmorris8762]

I think this was from My Own Way To Rock album (ie song - maybe the album was Stand Tall tho)

[@hendrixnut64]

The FIRST song he plays (before he starts talking" is called "Sour Suite"...with The Guess Who, the next one is These Eyes...also The Guess Who. There are no Sour Suite reaction vids on here...jump on it...it's a masterpiece!

[@Rottimail]

How about "I Will Play a Rhapsody"?

[@mollybean1000]

Yes it was his song

[@barbaramarkland7441]

LOVED THOSE MUSTACHES ON MEN, SOME WORE IT WELL. THUMBS UP FOR TOM SELECK... WHAT FINE LOOKING MAN IN MY DAY. ❤

Dreams of a Child

[@jacquelinesavoie9749]

These Eyes is the name of the song that sounded familiar to you and yes he wrote it. He hardly ever performed music he hadn't written. He does so now. Yes he's still performing - he was 75 on New Year's Eve and I was at the sold-out concert celebrating his birthday. His voice is still amazing! He sang for a good two hours, tons of standing ovations mid-concert and an outstanding long one at the end! P.S. That New Year's Eve concert was with his long time band and at The Burton Cummings Theatre in his hometown Winnipeg, Manitoba. The theatre was an old vaudeville house, at least 100 years old, which was refurbished and named after this outstanding singer/songwriter. Am I a fan? Been enthralled with that voice for 60 years!

[@CarollPearson-o7i]

Me too!

[@rod9845]

When are you doing Buttons “These Eyes” reaction Stan?

[@robinsmith1614]

HOW DO WE, HIS FANS, GET HIM IN THE ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME??!!!!! Tell me what to do and I will do it. I am 65 yo.
