FIRST TIME HEARING KIKI DEE BAND "I'VE GOT THE MUSIC IN ME" REACTION | Asia and BJ

[@randallforrest7683]

Great song...Kiki did a fantastic duet with Elton John, Don't Go Breaking My Heart

[@John_Chu]

She did a duet with Elton John "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" It was a huge hit. Sadly, her career didn't go that far after the mid-70s. She and her husband still perform but mostly as an oldies act.

[@ASDasdSDsadASD-nc7lf]

She was so successful she made a lifelong career, lol. As for an oldies act...she is OLD, lol. That is how time works.

[@kestrelle5345]

First UK female to be signed by Motown Records.

[@ScottPothan]

Met Kiki in the London clubs ‘70’s and then Don’t Go Breaking My Heart went massive

[@barriehull7076]

In the United States she became the first white British artist to be signed by Motown, releasing her first Motown single in 1970. Kiki Dee began her recording career as a session singer. She sang backing vocals for Dusty Springfield, among others, but did not achieve solo success in the UK for many years. She recorded her debut album, I'm Kiki Dee, in 1968 which included a series of Phil Spector-style tracks and covers.

[@FashionAlchemyEcademy]

Love this song, always have since the 70's it's timeless and soopp funky!

[@ebuz3288]

NOW THAT IS ONE ARTIST I HAVEN'T HEARD IN YEARS...THANKS FOR THIS

[@dmCurator]

Disco was one of those movements that blended music from across all genres. This is a great example of a thumping dance beat with rock guitar, bass and lead vocal delivery.

[@Lexwell_Lavers]

There was more soul in 60s and 70s music across all genres than any other time imo.

[@Smeets1950]

Makes you feel like dancing dun it ! Back to my old days !!!! Kudos

[@johnnypastrana6727]

Song was composed by the band's keyboardist Bias (Tobias) Boshell ...a whitebread from Kent, England. Who says Whitey doesn't have soul? 🌠

[@williamhochstetler134]

The live version is so much better mainly because you can see her energy .

[@JessicaGraham-is-wildwestjess]

Watch this particular song or video in a live version.

[@salome767]

I appreciate this song best for the richness of the music itself. Add to that those relatable lyrics, and it's a real gem.

[@long-timemusicenthusiast2243]

The only "Single" that I can remember buying that had "Play Loud" written on the label. :)

[@chrislaustin]

Give the live performance a go, as she has a good stage presence, as does a lot of artist you guys react to. I know a lot reactions like to focus on the music, but many artist are that much more interesting when watched as well.

[@DoxGR7934]

Song rocks more than I remembered.

[@justmejoy124]

Yes yes JOY lol does come natural it can flow fo sho 😉🙂 thank you guys another fantastic one.

[@anthonyperrault1805]

Another great song about the love of music is "Triumph" Magic Power!

[@michaelrush3403]

She and Elton Johns long time Guitarist Davey Johnstone dated for a few years in the 70’s. If I remember correctly she sang some backing vocals on some Elton John songs prior to their duet Don’t go breaking my heart

[@marthaz]

Fun memory! 😊 Love you two 💕

[@shwicaz]

YES, this is my JAM!

[@TheCornishCockney]

She had a great voice. Check out Star by her,magnificent.

[@happymethehappyone8300]

AN ABSOLUTE MUST HEAR CLASSIC,, CHI COLTRANE "THUNDER & LIGHTNING" (Pronounced "Shy" Coltrane)

[@stephenhowell5611]

Kiki wrote Sugar On The Floor, a song that Etta James covered.

[@1118alpet]

I LOVE this song. Love your reaction to it!! If you don't start moving when this song comes on, you might wanna check your pulse! lol

[@777petew]

I was 15 in 1974, and this was inspirational, as well as a brilliant rock song. So glad you knew this.

[@kktexan]

[@ASDasdSDsadASD-nc7lf]

This is the closest I have heard a white person achieve the heights of Aretha Franklin.

[@bakercarl8518]

Feel the great stuff, with an open mind.

[@pjdrum5973]

Another 70's female artist which you guys may enjoy is Chi Coltrane..... If you guys check it out she does a excellent live version of "Thunder and Lightening"....

[@ingridjanssen1894]

One of the backing singers is Cissy Houston, Whitney's mother.

[@TimStCroix]

This song was featured as the funny opening to the second episode of 'Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist' so you might have heard it there.

[@ralphfiligenzi6180]

Heart did a great cover of this song from their 1978 album "Magazine".

[@patriciawilliams1291]

[@briannichols3412]

This song fire

[@briannichols3412]

live version killer too

[@cmc8375]

Try Kiki doing Amereuse 💙🎶✊

[@zappafan1176]

The volume on the video should have been up a notch compared to your mics. Our band did this song back in the 70's. An all male band but the singer was awesome, plus the two guitarists. Damn fine memories.

[@lamusiclover2264]

Kiki Dee is the lead singer. She is the performer. There are other background singers. She had a number of solo albums throughout the 80's, and a few singles did well in the U.S. but she did much better in the UK where she is from. Amereuse, Chicago, and First Thing in the Morning are great songs that got radio play in the US. She had songs on the singles charts in the UK and Australia through 1993.

[@stephenhowell5611]

She worked with Dusty in the 60s, released several 45s and her first album was released in 73.

[@jeffmackey2474]

I am a van halen fan. You need to check out some of their albums. One song I would like you to check out is take your whiskey home. I watch you two all the time but you don't play enough of VH

[@johnmontgomery2784]

Do Don't go breaking my heart ♥️

[@buddinganarchist]

Cher meets Motown.

[@briannichols3412]

[@franckmedina3346]

[@movieman1556]

It's not "The Kiki Band" Its just Kiki Dee!!

[@franckmedina3346]

SOUL BRITAIN

[@franckmedina3346]

DUO ELTON JOHN- KIKI DEE

[@krisnesvik]

You should turn your microphones down a little,u r higer than the music. Good songs should be played blasting:)

[@helgar791]

To me this was just a mediocre version of the Thelma Houston original. Thelma's version was more exciting, more dynamic, and far better sung. Give that a listen.

[@damonrobus-clarke533]

2 years ago- ah who cares! FYI, this IS the original, written by the keyboardist, you must be American, so explains it! Thelma Houston version is good, but this blows it out of the water. I reapectlfully suggest you are talking rubbish.
