First Time Reaction Irene Cara FLASHDANCE...What A Feeling (THIS SOARS!) | Dereck Reacts

[@kaorireview1288]

How come you've never heard this song! Glad you can discover it!"

[@pearlgrantmuiznieks1200]

That was exactly my reaction 😂

[@SeArquiteteMininu]

I can't even fathom that! This song is literally everywhere from time to time!

[@Mathou.]

We are old ;)

[@AdurianJ]

@@Mathou. Surprisingly considering death was always 30 minutes away during the cold war !

[@miroro03]

The most iconic song of the 80s PERIOD

[@Earcandy73]

This was a huge, huge, huge hit! Georgio Moroder was all over the place from 1975 to 1985. He put Donna Summer on the map.

[@benellenberger5610]

Georgio Moroder was really something. Big fan. A thousand thumbs up!

[@patrickw123]

Irene Cara- Bronx-born, Puerto Rican father, Cuban mother, beautiful voice, several hits besides this one.

[@kmzoilus2486]

natural beautiful raw talent! And very beautiful herself she's also a sweet person! RIP Irene! We love you ❤

[@williamalvarez7549]

I'm 24 and I love this song thanks to my parents who have TASTE

[@nickhaswell6011]

Incredible song absolutely magical superb mindblowing

[@thekingcobra63]

Got to go on a Irene Cara binge now.

[@DereckReacts]

I've been hearing so many good things...I must!🔥

Irene Cara songs: "Fame" & "Out Here on My Own"

[@reevstemporary]

Agree .... Great Songs

[@brettdavies5239]

And Breakdance

[@PaladinesAngel]

Oh man Fame is AWESOME!

[@sexysadie2901]

And Hot Lunch Jam.

[@martianmonk]

I love "Out Here on My Own". Got me through some tough times in my teens making me think that somebody understood me.

[@shaunmccarthy6279]

I cant wait for you to watch Irene in Fame!

[@ludivinebalthazar9189]

You have "Fame" from Irene Cara too, you'll like it I think ❤️👌

[@Dave-oj4zd]

That's one of the reasons why the 80s music is the best. How about a whole week of The Awesome 80s music...

Love this song 🎶 as well

[@ryanbuckley5529]

I was born in 88, I absolutely Love the upbeat of the 80’s and how beautiful it really was! I wasn’t there for it but some of the best upbeat music ever made! Very inspirational🙏🏼

[@Jalopeurix]

One of the best soundtrack ever. I still have that soundtrack LP.

[@aknelson229]

Omg, you MUST watch the movie!! If you like this, you'll just love it.

[@lostbounty5380]

This song sums up the overall feeling of hope and possibility of the 80's

[@ownyourcrazy8734]

Songs like this win Oscars for Best Original Song.

[@MyNLR]

Love this movie! The entire soundtrack is amazing.

[@ControlTouchMaster]

Flashdance was a popular movie when I was in high school and this song was a big hit.

[@LHSnLA]

One of my all-time favorites!!

[@jellyrollnorton]

I love what you feel when you hear great music.!

[@soakedbearrd]

This song always brings me back to my childhood. I was born in the late 70's, I was like 5-6 when this came out and my mom's would always play it.

[@bridgettedenise]

Awesome reaction

[@LeoStubbing]

Such an amazing song - an absolute classic. Nothing beats the 80s. RIP beautiful Irene Cara who passed away in November 2022. Irene is a Grammy, Oscar & Golden Globe winner, an incredible artist. Check out the extended version, extra vocals & production. Also check out her other hits, Fame, Out Here On My Own, Why Me, Breakdance, The Dream. Definitely NOT a one hit wonder!

[@f1saintsutd]

I am so pleased you have reacted to this, Dereck. I was 6 years old when this was released, and it is very nostalgic for me. I LOVED this movie, this song and the whole soundtrack when i was growing up. I still love it dearly. Giorgio Moroder is one of my favourite keyboardists of all-time. The album he did with Philip Oakey of The Human League is an absolute classic.

[@andrewdinkins4480]

Your reaction is priceless. Irene Cara is my girl. This is oscar award song that she co-wrote.

[@thekingcobra63]

Irene was a super talented and got hosed by the industry for sure. She was so amazing.

[@charlyacevedo1775]

This entire soundtrack is fantástic.

[@pushpak]

One of my fave 'guilty pleasures' movie. Oh, and I don't feel guilty for loving it. Fab soundtrack too.

[@dreasbn]

One of the Defining song of the decade. Never cared about the movie itself with the leading actress not dancing herself... but the soundtrack was fab... especially Maniac.

[@gloriamartin3006]

Que buen tema, y que carismática peli, todas queríamos bailar así y amar así, felicidades por tu reacción. Gracias como siempre y besos.😉😉😉😉😉

[@angelaswanson1077]

What a great movie this was!

[@laukushi]

Ptit clin d'oeil : pour la chorégraphie finale de ce film, c'est un grand danseur français qui l'a exécuté !!! Merci bcoup pour cette reaction dereck!!!

[@gormsie28]

YOU MADE MY DAY!

[@songbird989]

Make sure you check out Irene Cara's song "Fame" from the movie of the same name. Also I Sing the Body Electric is a really fabulous song too!

[@tinywife8070]

some great music and singers came out of the 80s xx

[@elisabeth3074]

Waouh i can't beleive you don't know Irene Cara and the movie Flashdance !!!! ??? !!!! 😁🤪 ( Or may be i just realize i'm getting old ! 😏 ) You can also watch Soundtrack/theme music from the 1980, Alan Parker film "Fame," with Paul McCrane and Irene Cara ! These are my favorites ! 🤩😘😘

[@yvonpestel3283]

Comment il ne connaît pas cette musique !!!!! Une des meilleurs un slow d'enfer pour moi

[@ReactionsByJeff]

I believe that 1983 was one of the best years in music... I was twelve at the time and I also have a theory that the music you heard at 12 becomes some of your all-time favorite music ever. It's theory, not fact.

[@silverstitch28]

Love this movie! As a teen I went to a dance school and to get in you had to perform the audition piece from this movie!

[@pascalbrants9642]

best song classic

[@nross3101]

J'ai ADORE ! la bande originale du film était démente ! On avait envie de danser tout le temps ! Toute mon adolescence ! Vous vous êtes trompé de date de naissance Dereck ! Il fallait choisir 1969 ! 🤗🤗🤗

[@geminidreamatl26]

Irene had a hit with the song Fame.

[@christophegreuse3456]

Yes yes... Maniac by Michael Sembelo . The best ......

[@suzannesherrington4232]

Great song ❤️

[@dionnecoburn134]

You should really watch the movie! I think you would really like it. There was quite a bit of backlash when the movie came out because they used a double to do most of the dance scenes. The woman was a professional dancer. Great movie!!

[@m.amachado]

I love this soundtrack!

[@lamusiclover2264]

There is a 12" version and it's on KZbin. Irene Cara was also in FAME and sang the theme song for that movie, "Fame". which is also a big hit classic, and Hot Lunch Jam and Out Here on My Own. . She had a couple of solo songs, also produced by Giorgio Moroder. Breakdance was a single, and a ballad, "Anyone Can See. She has a large film and tv resume, plays and musicals, and she is on 17 Soundtrack albums.

[@bufordt.justice6741]

Nice Reaction Dereck. I LOVE this song soooooo much and Irene Cara had such a wonderful voice. Check out the movie which is awesome and Irene Cara's amazing song On My Own from the movie Fame as well. And if you want to do Rod Stewart try Young Turks for some sheer 80s Bliss.

[@nickice7009]

You’re so right...like parasailing 🪂 floating in the beginning... it really is brilliant 80s dance production at it’s best. With incredible vocals too. DJ Louie DeVito in 2003 I think did a remake of flash dance that is a modern take and fun too,

[@eTicketDeutschland]

The skating scene in the film features "Gloria" sung by Laura Branigan. But you should hear the original italian version by Umberto Tozzi.

[@Ciclopea2]

"I mean i can play this thing over and over and not get bored, that's how good it is" Me 38 years after it was released: Yup :)

[@lordwraith]

Flashdance wasn't the best 80s movie, but one with the best music ! (However Top gun is still number one) From the same OST, the love song is beautiful to.

[@twooharmony2000]

2:00 Good reaction.-Ernie Moore Jr

[@nazaretgomez1277]

You have to listen to the whole soundtrack to this movie I have and I cannot stop listen to it it so good and also you need to also need to see the movie great 80 movie

[@djyanno]

Irene Cara's "Fame" is even better for me

[@jenniferkasowicz9463]

Yes, you should check out some Rod Stewart! Long history, lots of songs. Would be hard to choose. I love “If You Think I’m Sexy”

[@Sailor-Alpha]

AND THERE IS AN EXTENDED VERSION OF THIS WITH EXTRA LYRICS

[@IreneCara-TheOneAndOnly]

Thx Austin. Don’t always agree with your reviews so I’m really flattered you haven’t taken personally-(lol)

Irene Cara wrote this.

Unsure if you have already reacted to it but please react to "Charles and Eddie - Would Lie To You?" (R.I.P Charles 1962-2001)

Please Dereck for your own listening pleasure listen to the full Flashdance movie soundtrack album. There are some truly awesome tracks on that album.

This movie, I saw it in the 80s, It's lovely. The entire soundtrack is wonderful, you should do all of them. or try a reaction to the movie.

[@searhill]

I advice ELO Twilight (1981)

[@SandrinesVoxServices]

Secret messages, Confusion, Last train to London (most interesting disco song IMO), are great tunes with a lot of brilliant use of synth!

[@upfrontbear74]

You need to react to Fame and Out Here On My Own

[@jeremymaboule3743]

react Sarah Brightman and Antonio Banderas - The Phantom of the Opera

[@TangoEliott]

You really need to get out more! Lots of movies you are depriving yourself of. Including A Hard Days Night by the Beatles. Get with it. Oh and keep this variety going. You have so much to see and hear.

[@gjnoto1]

Well theres so much out there a reactor can do lol.

There’s no doubt older music was real music. Doesn’t compare to today’s music whatsoever.

Esa canción es maravillosa!!! Puedes reaccionar a la canción de Dancing with the devil de Demi Lovato por favor?? 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@laurentrefouvelet7314]

J'avoue que cela semble improbable de n'avoir jamais entendu ce titre. A travers le film, le clip, une pub.... même depuis ces 15 dernières année. Je trouve très douteux que l'ont n'ai jamais entendu ce titre.

[@jillk368]

FOR CHILLS AND THRILLS. Hello Dereck. I like your reactions. I've been trying to get SOMEONE to react to a song called "I Sing The Body Electric" (finale song of the original movie Fame (1980)). It features Irene Cara along with other stars from the movie, as well as background orchestra, chorus and dancers who were seniors at the High School For Performing Arts the year it was filmed. It is absolutely mind-bogglingly good. There is a harmony section in there that still blows my mind after hearing it - I don't know how many times - over the years. Based on your reactions to a few things I've seen this week, I think you will absolutely love it. I'm putting this out to a few reactors who I also think will love it and hoping someone will check it out. Anyway, keep up the good work. Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qniQqJ9optZ3bbs

[@ayamahei1393]

Face to face Giorgio Moroder

[@julien.4617]

Irene Cara (RIP) is Not a one-hit wonder. You need to react to Irene's "Fame."

[@timothychung4811]

The dance part looks like her in the video, but it is actually a guy...FYI She had 4 hits: Fame, What A Feel..., Why Me, Break Dancing.

[@hotflesh66]

The one redhead female judge was the teacher on Little House on the Prairie! I believe Irene Cara was in Fame and did that song too.

[@kev7161]

Wasn't the person doing all the dance stunts actually a man? I thought I read that somewhere. You should check out "I Sing the Body Electric" from the move Fame. It featured Irene Cara along with other dancers, singers, an orchestra and a chorus. It's really quite nice.

[@kev7161]

I mean during the audition scene, of course.

[@francoisemeskine9712]

Hi Dereck, I'm sure you will like a song of Mr Mister called Broken Wings. It's fantastic !

[@yastube27]

You should watch the film! Also listen to this by Laura Branigan “Gloria” kzbin.info/www/bejne/pH-ok2WhlKqgg8k it’s from the same film . You should check another Laura song “self control”

Gloria by Laura Branigan, from the same movie. You'll go bananas, it's such an amazing song.

[@upsill]

Yes, basically just watch the all movie xD

[@mickdenis6630]

Gloria the song is not from movie or on the soundtrack, it's was hit in 1982. Jeanie skated to it, in the movie.

[@stef8073]

The music is by Giorgio Moroder one of the fathers of electronic music. The same that was behind Donna Summer's successes. He won an Oscar for this song as well as he will win it for Berlin's "Take My Breath Away". It also won the Oscar for the original soundtrack of the film Midnight Express.

[@caitlinnk6]

I feel old 😅 I just cried rewatching this because I was dancing my soul back then and I wanted to become a dancer. I learned the choreographies of the movie.

[@geminidreamatl26]

It won the Oscar for best song. Irene Cara co wrote it so she got an Oscar too!

[@marktirado4527]

I have a huge problem at age 50, I think everybody knows the artists of my teen years, obviously many don't know who is Irene Cara but she was huge in the early 80's!!!! She had many classic hits like this one, FAME, BREAKDANCE,, etc etc so was not a 1 hit wonder

[@soakedbearrd]

It called getting old. How do you feel now that Justin Beeber is in his 30's and his music is considered old school lol.

[@samuraifugitivo]

Man, im your age, admit it, we are old.

[@PaulWhytcross]

'Why Me?' and 'Breakdance' are two of Irene Cara's other 80s hits. You'll love both. Also, you MUST react to 'Fame'.
