FIRST TIME HEARING James Brown "I feel good" REACTION I Can't Stop Dancing!!

[@orbahumphrey8329]

YOU HAVE NOT experienced James Brown until you see a live performance!

[@ajruther67]

Very True! Watch a live performance and you will be even more amazed

[@BenAHulse]

Saw him live around 2003... even at that age he was amazing

[@thethesaxman23]

There’s a reason James Brown is The Godfather of Soul!!! If you liked his, you should check out Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag, Cold Sweat, and Sex Machine!!

[@hollyodell4012]

Get on up.

[@DavidB-2268]

But do the live performances.

[@loveit7484]

YES!!!

[@BarbButler]

@@DavidB-2268 💗 💖 💘 💝 💟

[@toddkurzbard]

DEFINITELY "Papa" and "Sex Machine".

[@positivebuoyancy8841]

Small mistake using a lyric video, much of the brilliance of the artist is his stage performance.

[@dragonflyparade8143]

He's right, you know. Go watch this artist; he is great.

[@bangmon1000]

yes

[@estellasreyes6847]

TELLL HUMM😉🤣

[@porttack8574]

Half of the enjoyment of James Brown’s music is watching him.

[@vonniesmith8829]

AGREED

[@surlechapeau]

James, his "Get Up Offa That Thing", "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine" and "Say It Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud" are next for you!!! He was known as the 'Hardest Working Man In Show Business'. Soul brother number 1. You must see a live performance of his.

[@Eyes-of-Horus]

"Get Up Offa That Thing" was used in "The Muppets from Space."

[@marshacaperton5315]

Get up offa that thing was FANTASTIC!

[@michaelpond6386]

The hardest working man in show business, his stage act is legendary and you chose a lyric video, good god man.

[@coleneilsen337]

The Payback! You gotta see James Brown preform live. He kills it and his band, The JB’s, burned the house down every show in every town

[@slownoman]

Jimi Hendrix was in James Brown's band early in his career. Probably 64-65.

[@shevawn1973]

Yes! My favorite!

[@henrytberry]

I have been watching, and enjoying, this young man's reaction to so many songs from my youth. These are the songs I grew up with, and while the songs are still wonderful, what doesn't translate is how James Brown, Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Aretha Franklin, and so forth changed the world. Before this music came along, we had Patti Page singing How Much for that Doggie in the Window" and then we had Elvis, Chuck Berry and Bob Dylan. The world changed.

[@NOLAgenX]

With James Brown, you always need a stage performance! The man could dance his butt off. 😁

[@sergestorms8044]

Living in America is classic too.✌️👊♥️

[@chrisjenkins8450]

James Brown is my favorite artist of any genre!

[@kiddmobb4759]

James Brown at his best! Live on The TAMI SHOW his entrance is EPIC!

[@slownoman]

You've gotta see him perform his songs. I only saw him once, opening for the Rolling Stones in 1965. James kicked Mick Jagger's ass that night. Mick learned some lessons, big time.

[@mfree80286]

Lessons literally, to see Mick dancing years later...

[@lindawalker161]

Watch him live and see him dance. You'll love it. Gotta dance when James Brown sings!

[@stephaniehouston521]

James Brown Will Always Be The Godfather Of Soul.

[@rileysteve]

He put on a live concert that would send you home worn out. Wonderful entertainer. Decades of hits. My favorite era for him was early 70's.

[@rileysteve]

Oh, and then there was the "HELL" album.

[@sergestorms8044]

And then he'd party all night after the show. Hardest Workin Man in showbiz baby👊

[@Eyes-of-Horus]

He was "the hardest working man in show business" for a reason.

[@aresee2003]

"Get Up Offa That Thing"..............is awesome tooooo!

[@lavalleecg]

James Brown Papa's Got a New Bag 🎒🎒🎒

[@elevenbucks5682]

You got to see a live version of this. You see James dance , you,ll know what to do.

[@chuckjordan6455]

"Please, Please, Please" -- very emotional. "Living in America".

[@crazydale1000]

I saw James Brown in Miami in the early 70's.He was great.His band was an absolute killer. The entire audience was up dancing the whole show.

[@rachelsullivan2926]

This is one of those songs where the only way to dance to it is to feel it in your soul and just let the music move you.

[@warrenroy7333]

You have to see the video of this.... A MUST then you can REALLY appreciate him!

[@kemitamenophis3221]

JB had his signature dance move on stage beginning in the early 60's! Everybody was trying to imitate it. as he got older, he was not able to do that dance quite as hard, swiveling and skating across the floor

[@Bluewizard7131]

Check out James Brown Night Train live on the TAMI show for one of the most amazing performances ever!

[@thebiscuitscraps]

You CANNOT sit still with this one. I'm 73 and it gets me on my feet every timed! Love your reaction! This is one of my fave, all time...get in the groove songs...and nobody sings it like JB.

[@lisarainbow9703]

"Get On the Good Foot", is another classic JB..

[@anthonyblakely399]

One of the gods of Soul Music and The Godfather of Soul Mr. James Brown who I saw twice in concert. Without him...there would be no soul music, R & B, or Funk music. Love him!!!! And the man could DANCE UP A STORM!!!!!

[@geraldhallahan5270]

"Give It Up Or Turnit Loose" "Get Up Offa That Thing!" "The Payback" "Get Up (I Feel Like Being A ) Sex Machine" . His live performance on the TAMI show are unreal. You can't get enough JB in your life.

[@nmgal8543]

Yep, def check out the TAMI show, it's one of the most awesome live performances by anybody

[@akahina]

You MUST see James Brown live...

[@bangmon1000]

yes

[@porflepopnecker4376]

James Brown loses a lot when you can't see him performing.

[@lacm64]

Nope, he does not. Runs circles around any auto-tuned pop singer today.

[@glennk1931]

This wonderful classic will get you dancing every time. It’s beautiful.

[@bethneubacher8985]

Oh you MUST see him perform this live on stage! He's tremendous!!!

[@traci4187]

I agree with Positive Buoyancy. Many of the artists from the 50s and 60s need to be watched for real appreciation!

[@rachelsullivan2926]

I've been in love with this song my entire life so to watch someone fall in love with it for the first time took me back to my childhood where I would sing and dance around the house to my mother's rock n roll records.

[@HK-ny8pr]

‘Get up offa that thing’ is danceable like wouldn’t believe! I agree with the others, I cannot wait for you to see him performing live! There is no one like him in the whole wide world!

[@cletushouse906]

James brings so much to the stage. You have GOT to see his live show.

[@painfullyaware5221]

You should really check out videos of him dancing as he sings. On, "It's a Man's World" he wasn't dancing at all, but he had some signature moves later on.

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

He was known as The Godfather of Soul, and the hardest working man in show business! Best live show I ever saw was James Brown.

[@sherrelwilson7354]

“Papa don’t take no mess” my favorite James Brown💙

[@lowrider4266]

Heck yeah. Legendary James. Thanks. Great song choice.

[@romulusremus7537]

The way I dance to James Brown is to stand up and Salute the man!!!

[@BobBridgesbob]

YES! James Brown! The Godfather of Soul!

[@estellasreyes6847]

Man 😏, Would HAVE LOVED THE LIVE DANCING PERFORMANCES

[@mykuklaki]

Yes!! He influenced Michael Jackson, Prince and countless others with his moves.

[@matthewgeddes4139]

Hearing James Brown changes people man. I bought my first best of in 1995. Double vinyl. So many top tunes.

[@christinajensen8058]

Rocking, side to side, to soul....metal, headbang..up and down....

[@karenm502]

It's always fun to watch people find new music to jam to, that makes ya wanna get up and MOOOOOVE!

[@ea9541]

Live performances and JB is where it's at. Seriously...hardest workin man in show biz...when u see him live it all makes sense.....

[@vickeyadkins1481]

This song will still get everyone up on the floor at any party!

[@cindyp1033]

You can’t help but dance to this one. You should see him dance!🔥🔥🔥

[@seanwood5912]

James Brown’s song Please Please Please live version. Must be watching live versions of James. AWESOME

[@debbieford8842]

OMG Your reaction!!!! Loved it. He and Aretha - miss the great hits from the "old days". I'm nearly 70 and this music can still make me get up and boogy!!!!

[@lynnrogers9236]

Isn't James Brown a blast? Iconic performer. Thanks!

[@827dusty]

I remember this song on the radio when I was a skinny little white kid in Seattle in 1964 or 65. James Brown..."The Godfather of Soul." and aka "The Hardest working man in Showbusiness." It didn't matter in those days. Everyone loved James Brown.

[@trollsmyth]

Also, track down episodes of a TV show called Soul Train. Back in the '70s, watching that show was how we learned to dance.

[@raynavarro7997]

The Godfather of Soul, Mr. Dynamite, The Hardest Working Man in Show Business, Mr. Please Please Please, Soul Brother Number One and more....no one had or deserved more titles in music then Mr. James Brown!

[@cynthiadepriest8192]

The Godfather!!! Love James. No one compares. Wish you'd of seen him dance.

[@James-StJames]

James Brown is one of the GOATs, among the best Singers we've ever had, certainly a fore-father of Rap and Hip-Hop, and a Soul/Funk pioneer. "Prisoner of Love" is one of the sweetest melodies you'll ever hear, and the "Funky Drummer" has one of the most sampled Drum beats in history. There's alot of music to investigate here.

[@jlb2408]

I think its always good to hear the audio version first to get the best sound of the song.

[@armadillotoe]

The hardest working man in show business. The Godfather of Soul. What else needs to be said?

[@lesiamiller8819]

James Brown the Godfather Of Soul!Rip Legendary😀😊💖

[@athena6307]

The Godfather of Soul! This man was one in a billion!!!

[@caythorgrimson]

im a a kid that grew up withe luis armstrong and james and this tune is and allways will be my feel good song damn man its one of the greatest tune ever its is for what it is

[@doggzillablk7955]

You got to watch james Brown live his soul is full of soul that is why in my opinion james Brown is the grandfather of soul

[@amylafferty3092]

Enjoyed him in Vancouver, British Columbia, (1970s) and they allowed me to stay right there for the second show!

[@harrietmiller3982]

If only you could see him live dancing! Got to see that‼️

[@suzie4417]

The Godfather of Soul had the moves! His music always got the party going & ending!!💕 you need to find videos of him live & see his moves. His band was The JB’s later on & you need to see them all groovin!😆💗

[@maccladoz]

A number of James Browns backing band left and joined George Clinton's Parliament/Funkadelic, most notably bass guru Bootsy Collins. You should listen to some Parliament I would recommend, "P. Funk (Wants to Get Funked Up)" "Mothership Connection (Star Child)" "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)" "Flashlight" or "Dr. Funkenstein" you will see the evolution from James Browns R&B/Soul to George Clinton's Funk which then evolved into rap/hip hop.

[@farfromperfek]

There is a reason he is the Godfather of Soul! The man was the best at what he did.

[@TheOpy83]

Your reaction is priceless and very authentic! :))

[@pamelachavis3258]

You need to watch a video with him dancing, boy oh boy what a freaking experience. I’ve been to 2 concerts, what a show!! U gotta research the videos that he dances to.

[@dragonflyparade8143]

He was wonderful.

[@jennkim74902]

Nice for sure...next James Brown song you have to see him performing. Such a great entertainer & singer.

[@perrymalcolm3802]

Dude..... The TAMI SHOW!!!! James n the Famous Flames 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@daft4343]

Stage performance....great always but the performance itself is legendary..not to mention the song itself. Cheers, stay safe!

[@stephaniehouston521]

That Is Why You Need To Listen To All The Songs Of James Brown.

[@loveit7484]

You really must see his on stage antics. Fantastic!!!

[@julietgroce1811]

You really need to react to James Brown, dancing he will blow yr mind.

[@kimscott3889]

This is a man's world. Not a dancin song but oh so smooth

[@yvonnephillips3888]

As a very young teen, I played this 45 on my record player (no stereo back then). I can still here my Dad telling me to turn down the volume then coming in my room to dance to this song.

[@Realgrande]

I was 14 when this song came out, the dance that was done during the 1960's to this tune was called the"Boogaloo". We also did the "Cool Jerk" to this also.

[@kenbarton2920]

F******g LOVE this song. Thank you!

[@lawrencekelli]

James Brown ..'' Gravinty''..Biig G ! is a fantastic groover song! James Brown was an AWESOME dancer.

[@emdusha5590]

I just can't tell you how much joy you give me watching your reactions! And yes, a lot of dancing has been done to this song!

[@patriciadowning4036]

You have to get the video to watch James' super body moves.

[@Graphite42]

Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose (Undubbed Mix) is still my all time favorite James Brown song.

[@wadesnider5218]

Need a performance video of this. Missing so much

[@stephaniehouston521]

That Is Why You Need To Start Listening To Old School Music From 50s, 60s, & 70s.

[@NilZed1]

i cannot believe you never heard your grandad or somebody like that playing James Brown!

[@karenleedom3354]

This song any time!!! My best time hearing was an early Sunday trip to the grocery store, those few of us there were grooved :)

[@maryozee6135]

The reporters and crew of "Good Morning, America" used to listen to this every morning before going on the air. They started very early in the morning, so this helped them get going.

[@janetberrio1448]

Got to see his performance for this song. Another to see "Please Please Please "

[@jamesgant213]

My Man, James Brown Live in Zaire 1974, The Payback, Your eyes will be opened, go to Soul train. For good foot, make it funky, escapees . He made modern popular music what it is today

[@jamiekendrick5057]

You really need to react to this song again with a video of him singing and dancing. Man had the MOVEZ! (Depending on video blockage, of course.) He was often backed up by his dancers, The Fabulous Flames (every guy - yes, guy) was a fabulous dancer. My favorite part of his act was - and he did this with different songs - was when he’d pretend to be SO EXHAUSTED he couldn’t go on, one of his people would come out on stage with his long cape and wrap it around James Brown’s shoulders, acting like he was going to help James off stage. - AND THEN, and then, Janes would THROW OFF the cape and start dancing and/or singing like a man possessed. - James Brown was a heck of a showman! If you can react to one of those videos without it being blocked, it is definitely a spectacular show to hear AND see!

[@davidroyston1918]

PURE TALENT!

[@ajruther67]

THAT is why James Brown is the Godfather of Soul

[@richardpoynton4026]

You never heard James Brown before??? Incredible....

[@seanwood5912]

Bro you missing out if you ain’t watching these live versions of James...he will show you how to dance! Spins splits and everything. So much energy! He is the showman for sure 🤘

[@michelletittle4689]

Always watch James in video!!!

[@jbz2291]

Love this song!!!! Was singing it this morning on the way to work😁

[@larryiles2950]

Oh Brother, I'm sure you've done it by now... but DAMN!!!! you needed to SEE the man perform this live! He could throw down some moves that would've had you outta your chair and on the floor!
