First Time Reaction to Peter Cetera - The Glory of Love

[@meemermarie1977]

“Karate kid 2” was this song

[@waynefinnicumbb7218]

Definitely! And what a great song and movie

[@mordavi]

Yup my thoughts too

[@davewalkeden6932]

Not exactly. It was written for Rocky 4 and rejected.....🤔

[@mordavi]

​@@davewalkeden6932​I'm sure they meant that in the metaphorical sense but thank you for your input..

[@CusterApollo]

​@davewalkeden6932 100% correct. Sylvester Stallone did not think the song fit with the Rocky 4 movie so he passed on it. They took the song to Karate Kid 2 and it fit perfectly with that movie.

[@DanielFrost21]

Peter is the voice of Chicago......no one else ever came close.

[@allenwhitmer8192]

Agree to a point, but Bill Champlin did a great job on Look Away, their 3rd and final #1 hit

[@DanielFrost21]

@@allenwhitmer8192 He's good, but not close to Peter's legendary voice.

[@allenwhitmer8192]

@@DanielFrost21 No, no I know

[@MrHarper00]

Peter has an iconic voice, I totally agree. But when I think of Chicago, I think of Terry Kath. His voice was the blues, so much soul. Not to mention his brilliant guitar work. I feel like he gets overlooked quite often. R.I.P. So young, so much talent. Robert Lamm was no slouch either. Three great vocalists, impeccable musicianship all the way around. One of the best bands ever.

[@DanielFrost21]

@@MrHarper00 Terry was incredible, a great voice and of course his guitar playing was mind blowing. I've always thought of him as the heart and soul of Chicago, and Peter as the voice of the band. I think the loss of Terry affected the band more than when Peter left. Chicago never fully recovered from Terry's passing.

[@dewman0269]

Peter Cetera is and always will be the voice of the group Chicago... His vocals are unmatched even today in my opinion... This was from the movie "Karate Kid 2"... There are trailers of the movie that contain this song within it and it makes for an awesome listening and watching experience... I'm going to keep looking on your channel and I'm curious to see what you're going to do next... I like this rabbit hole you guys are going down... I'm 67 years old and I'm happy to see that the songs that I listened to as a young man are enjoyed by you young people of this generation... Chicago is one of my top 5 groups of all time that I enjoy listening to... My favorite group of any genre Is ABBA... Great reaction guys... Can't wait to see the next one that you're going to react to... Keep Being Awesome !!!...

[@petertoal371]

Hi man, I'm eighty one years old and still have Chicago vinals in my collection. One of THE best bands of the late seventies early eighties. Peter Cetera has still got the the Charisma and the voice hasn't changed much as he's gotten older (as we all do eh!)

[@happiness5556]

I really love this song. Peter Cetera has the most beautiful voice. Here I am about to turn 67 in September and I am still in love with the voice of Mr. Cetera. The man that makes me feel a plethora of emotions! Memorable forever.

[@johnthegreek5836]

This song was an anthem to guys even though it’s a romantic song because it was in the Karate Kid movie, 80’s power ballad

[@ouachitawoman]

I had forgotten how beautiful this song was. Thanks for the memories.

[@C.UHoward]

Yes, memories for me too!

[@angie7777-7]

Have to agree …in the 80s we had a lot of iconic voices Peter Cetera, Steve Perry, Michael Jackson, The BeeGees…..

This guy has an impeccable voice...such depth and control. One of the very best.

[@bobthecone]

Because of how this song was placed in "Karate Kid II," (that there was a castle in the background during it) my friends and I (during the early 2000's) created the phrase, "Wow, Peter Cetera. Your lyrics are wicked accurate." This is used to dismiss someone who isn't helping the situation or stating the obvious.

[@billhuisman1476]

Chicago is a great, long-surviving band that had many different lead singers & different band members. Peter Cetera was one of my favorite lead singers of this group. I beleive this song may have one a Grammy award & I believe David Foster (mulit-Grammy award song writer & producer) is one of the composers for this song. Memorable love song!

[@Pinylyn]

Aww, it takes me back to my youth and Karate Kid 2. 😊 Such a beautiful song.

"Hard habit to break" and "You're the inspiration" are Amazing songs❤

[@vincentobrien7353]

Peter's the best. Great voice. Great performer. One of the few singers who sounded even better live.

[@gpt2010]

Loved the song so much I made my dad take me to watch Karate Kid 2 as a child of the 80s.

[@RAFA1852]

Peter Cetera is one of my faves saw him live and sounds the same or better, i enjoy younger people enjoying the great singers.

[@miorandmior]

When tasha pointed to her chest and asked did you feel it, i understand that feeling. When i hear a song i grew up with , the nostalgia hits you there, you get like a whoosh feeling deep in your chest.

An all-time love song. I mean, ain't it? Just sounds good. And powerful. And you gotta love the "change-up" outro. Again -' the most likable couple on KZbin RVC channels.

[@wendyhowe2178]

This song was in Karate Kid 2. Amazing song! Can’t believe I was so blessed to hear this song and so many others like it on my car stereo everyday. Man…I’m so glad I was a teenager in the 80s. Blessed!!! And btw…Journey is still my favorite band since 1981.

Everytime I hear this, it gives my marriage a new meaning. This song is everything!

Great stuff! As a metaldude i can't help just love Cetera's voice.

My gosh, this brings me back to being an adolescent in the movie theater with my best friend watching Karate Kid 2. **sigh** I miss those days sooo much!!!! 😭❤️

[@dalehammers4425]

LOL it was absolutely crystal clear the moment she realized she knew this song.

[@dalehammers4425]

Also, now I think I'm gonna have to go re-watch Karate Kid 2 again...

[@angelomaurizio1668]

This song was from Peter Cetera's first solo album after he'd left the group Chicago. 'Glory of Love' initally was the soundtrack to the movie Rocky IV but plans were changed then lyrics were changed as the song became the soundtrack for The Karate Kid Part II (1986) It was a huge hit for Cetera hitting Number 1 on the Billboard Charts and received a Grammy nomination. Another number 1 hit from this same album was a ballad with Amy Grant called 'Next Time I Fall in Love' Far as nostalgia, I remember there was a market for the Karate Kid. Enrollment for karate skyrocketed after the first movie across the country. There were also merchandise, posters, booklets, stickers, etc. I do recall begging my old man for $5 so i could get the Karate Kid II booklet at my school's book fair that contained scenes from the movie and a small poster if I could remember. Wish I couldve kept it, dont remember what happened to it. Far as Soft Rock/Mellow Gold became popular in the mid 70s til I wanna say into the early 80s thanks to artists like Christopher Cross who'd continued the Soft Rock era into the early 80s. Time Life music has a collection of Mellow Gold music you should check out that has various artists in a CD.

[@johansjoberg8388]

Actually it's his second solo album. He released one in 1981. Don't remember the title though...

[@angelomaurizio1668]

@@johansjoberg8388 Right, but id mentioned it was his first solo album "after" he'd left Chicago. The '81 album was self titled when he was still with the group.

[@davewalkeden6932]

Pretty sure it was never gonna be on the Rocky soundtrack - it was cut very early in the process. Would've been a naff song for the theme of the movie, anyway. Cetera was a magnificent bass player, probably as good as McCartney, wrote some great music, but as a lyricist, nah. Average at best. His first solo album was unadulterated rubbish, full of filler.....😁

[@bobdelp2023]

AHHHHHH T, YOU GOT HER, GOTCHAAAA! 😮YOU DIDN'T SEE 2, YOU SAW THE ORIGINAL! 😊 THAT WAS GR8888!

[@pleutron]

[@chuckwhite3176]

Can't go wrong with a Chicago song! Timeless stuff right there.

[@miltonslocum8957]

Great reaction guys! This song got a lot of airplay back then. And as others have mentioned, it was the soundtrack for Karate Kid 2 which was a commercial success and was one of the highest grossing films of 86. You'll enjoy it.

[@stevefoulston]

Singing style was a result of "Four Marines didn't like a long-haired rock 'n' roller in a baseball park," Cetera later recalled in the liner notes to the Chicago box set. "And of course I was a Cub fan, and I was in Dodger Stadium, and that didn't do so well. I got in a fight and got a broken jaw in three places, and I was in intensive care for a couple of days.” “I had a broken jaw and I was wired shut for a few months,” Cetera said in 2009. “And when they cut the wires off, I was always afraid of my jaw sticking open again, so I don’t really open my mouth a lot when I sing.” In the meantime, given time to think - lots of it - Cetera found himself, for the first time, moved to create. Cetera went on to write or co-write some of Chicago’s most familiar songs including, "Baby, What a Big Surprise," "Feelin’ Stronger Everyday" and "If You Leave Me Now," which became the group’s first No. 1 single. Peace out.

I have a clear memory of being around 6 years old hearing this outside of the Ft. Worth Zoo. So random .. And yes, the nostalgia is palpable.

You should try Peter Cetera and Crystal Bernard with "Gonna take Forever Tonight". Enjoy your reactions. Was rolling on the floor with your reactions to "Marie Lavou". Hilarious!

I was just thinking of this song and here you are reacting to it.... Actually recently the guitarist in this song, Dann Huff, was interviewed... The video is on youtube.... He is the same guitarist on some of MJ's songs, Madonna, M, Bolton etc...and even Mariah Carey's Merry Christmas album... 😅

You wanted to know more or less when this type of music strarted to change, I would say around the late 80’s early 90’s when hip hop, rap, and acid rock started to appear if I’m not mistaken.

You can hear David Fosters influence here too. He produced Chicago 17 and several others in his hay day in the 80s and 90s. He produced, wrote, arranged and played mostly piano on many albums from pop, R&B, Jazz, Rock, Country and Classical. Who he’s worked with is almost every big name in music including Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Stevie Nicks, Celine Dion, Dolly Parton and many, many more he has won 16 Grammys of 47 nominations. I suggest you check out Celine Dion and Andreas Bocelli “The Prayer” which he wrote and produced.

[@mikefetterman6782]

Peter left the group right before this solo effort. This song was the theme song for KARATE KID II. Peter/Chicago, Bryan Adams, Journey, all these bands had slow songs for us kids that were too self conscious to dance to fast songs. To sway back and forth on the dance floor with a girl at the dance or skating rink, gave us a chance to get close to a girl too. Seeming a little more sappy to me now, I still am nostalgic for these sugar sweet ballads.

Peter has since done some live stuff (in his late sixties early seventies) with David Foster, whom he also collabortated with on so many of his great hits.
