FIRST TIME HEARING Semisonic Closing Time Official Video REACTION

[@quantumxfluxmd6821]

How can anyone genuinely say they haven't heard this song before! Lmao this song is always the radio, in the grocery store, bars etc

[@elizabethwise4376]

I bartended for 5 years, and I always turned on the lights and played this song at closing time. 😆

[@farfromperfek]

My Daughter had a apartment while at UGA above a bar in downtown Athens. They blasted this song every night at 2am. Needless to say she hates this song with a passion now.

[@deborahbarchard5957]

Still relevant to my days in the 70s. Describes clubs and bars perfectly.

[@JimmyNotes]

This song is actually about the lead singer's son being born, but they thought that would be kind of a lame song so they decided to hide the message and make it sound like a song about a bar closing. "This door won't be open until your brothers and your sisters come" I'd love to hear you do a reaction to "stand tall" by Burton Cummings kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2G6lWuofLyVd5I

[@saymynameice-zen-berg511]

Yeah and The line, ‘turn the lights on above every boy and every girl’, is reference to a maternity ward.

[@tnightwolf]

Tbh being drunk at the end of the night it's almost like being a newborn... The main difference is that the "drunk newborn" knows the basics of how to operate in society XD

[@worldwidewells7452]

I never knew this, but it blares now. Thank you for this. This is the song of my childhood, and it means so much more now that I'm a dad. You made this song happy for me for the first time.

[@Taleriose]

When this song came out I swear for the next 10 years and still sometimes now this is the last song of the night for every bar.

[@Gadeberg90]

Like most good songs this song also make use of metaphores. It isn't a song about closing something physical like a bar or a store. It's more like closing a chapter in your life and getting ready for a new one.

[@romulusremus7537]

You kick ass, my friend. Sincere thanks for all the time and work you put into this for us. We appreciate it.

[@imafgc]

The only other big-ish songs from Semisonic are "Chemistry", "Singing in my Sleep" and "Secret Smile" edit - Oh yeah Lead Singer Dan Wilson also co-wrote Adele's biggest song Someone Like You

[@jerrystonekingjr.6791]

"Beth" by Kiss will surprise you.

[@jpf77302]

Jerry Stoneking Jr. I love Beth so much!

[@coreyrees840]

About the birth of his son, once you know that and listen very carefully you realize it, very cool how they set it up though as a bar closing time

[@cocoemrick1903]

I'm a 63 year old bartender. This is our last song each night. I relate to it! Great tune!

[@bangmon1000]

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

[@farfromperfek]

This is one of the songs I teach my beginning guitar students. Lyrically a much better song when you learn its about his unborn baby. Still recommending Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4 or Make me Smile (guitarist Hendrix called a better player) Rush - Tom Sawyer (Arguably the best drummer to ever live) Yes - Roundabout (different from anything you have listened to)

[@navigatingwithnana]

REM "Everybody Hurts"

[@wileydawgknows5326]

I was a bartender in the 90's and we played this every night at 2:30 am. What a great time in my life! Also Andy Bernards song for everyone to go home in the Office.

[@TexasRivermedic]

AC/DC Shook Me All Night Long

[@Atlanticoduck]

They definitely play this song when bars close in my area! Great 90’s jam!

[@hampyonce]

Brilliant simplicity.

[@elizabethwise4376]

Pearl Jam's 'Jeremy' uncensored video, followed by their MTV Unplugged performance of the same song.

[@mikegeorge1988]

Every pub cover band in Australia closes the night with this

[@jerrystonekingjr.6791]

AC/DC "A Whole Lotta Rosie"

[@mmjb53]

I used to go to a bar called The Social Pub a lot in university and they played this song every single night at last call (2am) lol it was fantastic!

[@sirsnarry8013]

This song is played at almost every bar at closing time in my home town

[@khalidmuhammad5828]

You see the drummer he is amazing the way he plays the drum

[@MsLuvmusic81]

Always loved this song ; it’s really unique and the song from the beginning sounds like it’s ending if that makes sense

[@robc.8269]

Please review Raconteurs 'carolina drama', 'steady as you go', 'level', 'consolers of the lonely', 'hands' & 'top yourself'. To start with, they're a current band.

[@kennethcoval4970]

Hell yeah

[@lynette.]

That is a pub chucking out song Time gentlemen please ain't you got no homes to go to. That was very nice.

[@gombers]

Damn this song takes me back to when I was in high school and we would be wrapping up in the theatre tech shop blasting this to signal we gotta get the hell on out hahaha. Great reaction, so happy to see you checking out all types of music. If you are not familiar with Lupe Fiasco, I would love to see you react to him. Much love and peace friend! 💜 Also, never played it when we were closing but it has played at the grocery store where I worked at lol

[@jerrystonekingjr.6791]

"Man of Constant Sorrow" By The Acapella Group Home Free The Bass will amaze you and the Beat Boxer is awesome. The only instrument is their voice. Truly amazing. and the Boyz to Men cover of "End of the Road" will knock your socks OFF!

[@durv13]

this is one of my favourite songs , thats all i got to say lol

[@3DJapan]

Many many times have I been to a bar where they played this at the end of the night.

[@brandymatthews9857]

This song is played at every bar at 2 am

[@jerrystonekingjr.6791]

Ringo Starr the drummer for the Beatles does a fun song you might like. "No No Song"

[@alexandradavies6669]

Please react to more Semisonic! 'FNT' is a really fun song (it was used in 10 Things I Hate About You) and 'Secret Smile' is also really nice. And they're all very different songs so there's range! :)

[@asdband888]

I think I have heard it play at a bar when it was closing time. It was a fun song. I don't remember any other songs by them. But this one was/ is awesome!

[@imafgc]

Fun fact the lead singer Dan Wilson co-wrote someone like you by adele and is still heavily active in the music industry more behind the scenes

[@asdband888]

@@imafgc That's cool. I'm glad they are still doing something musically. They are obviously talented. Sometimes bands just come on the scene at the wrong time and don't catch on in a big enough way to sustain them. It's too bad.

[@imafgc]

@@asdband888 In this case your 100% right, if you listen to more of their music you can definitely tell what sound they're going for but it was pretty much at a wrong time for it

[@fathomwoodworking4094]

Slightly Stoopid - Welcome To the Sun Slightly Stoopid - World Goes Round Slightly Stoopid - Wiseman Slightly Stoopid - Sweet Honey Slightly Stoopid - Officer Slightly Stoopid - Everything You Need

[@Hollingsworth2781]

More like a bar closing late at night. When everyone wants to stay and party all night.

[@ABunny-li1cc]

Totally should do Daughtry- Waiting for Superman

[@JesterValentine]

You should react to Jamiroquai some songs to get started with are - Virtual insanity, Cosmic girl, Deeper underground, Little L, Feels just like it should, Canned heat, Love foolosophy.

[@vanhouten7377]

KISS - Forever

[@BrianSmithNow]

Saddest song in a bar...when they were open.

[@summer4187]

Have you heard Biz Markie? I think you’d have fun with Just a Friend.

[@t3chkz0wep0p.2]

I'll keep saying it, over and over. Your ear is so different you should try Ubiquitous Mr. Lovegrove by Dead Can Dance

[@robo6590]

You should check out his Harvard reunion explanation video. Fun.

[@laurenpeck3609]

You need to start checking out early Chicago and Journey!!!

[@vanhouten7377]

Rehab - Bartender ( dirty official video )

[@OrangJoe1077]
