Johnny Rivers - What's The Difference

Third song on side two of Johnny's 1968 release LP 'Realization'

[@user-zo9wf2wn9m]

I absolutely love this song. I can so relate to it. Sorry, I'm 76 and I have lived it.

[@reallyrarestuff]

Johnny has said this was his most favorite project of all time

[@2510katjo]

I have always loved Johnny Rivers. Such a unique voice, gentle style, universal music.

[@davidsurnearsr8249]

Johnny Rivers is the one performer who truly touches my soul , I love his music.

[@fogologo100]

Realization was probably one of the finest albums ever recorded. Johnny Rivers could sing almost any song and make it better than most.

[@robertcoker4648]

Agreed 💯%

[@cesargiometti]

A sad song, deep and emotional feelings touchin' my young heart, fourty years ago...

[@monicacubberly-early1901]

One of the best albums and performers ever. Thank you Johnny for all the hours of entertainment. God bless you

[@felipesants8936]

REALIZATION IS THE BEST ALBUM BY J RIVERS. GREAT

[@robertcoker4648]

I thank God Johnny was one of the first artist I really listened to, he touched me from the get-go, his voice, his persona, I learned Class from my friend Johnny, and it never ended, I love him and his music to this day 7-6-22, and as long as I live. Thank you Johnny, Love ya man !!!!!!! ♥️

[@augustogiometti6933]

Wonderful song! I was thirteen when I've heard Johnny Rivers... 1968! Oh, this song put some tears in my eyes till today...

[@jab353]

Thank you Scott McKenzie for writing this song so our Brother Johnny could adapt it to be included with all the other "spiritual sounds" on that Masterpiece he named "Realization"

[@firstnamelastname3574]

THIS SONG IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER WRITTEN!!!!!!

[@karenmonet2374]

WOW I had forgotten how good this song was. I LOVE JOHNNY RIVERS, the most soothing voice EVER. LOVE THIS ALBUM

[@robertcoker4648]

Johnny could mesmerize most anyone, his voice so-o-o soothing, and the lyrics, just beautiful 👍

[@threemississippi]

Deep lyrics, and that voice of Johnny's - beautiful song!

[@peeterpoon]

A very underrated Scott McKenzie tune...

[@teoflores9121]

Wuuuay que tema que llena el Alma y espíritu pura nostalgia escuchar jhonny Rivers ..talentoso 👏👏 🔊 🎧🤩🤩🤩😘

[@MsJaneSi]

Has much more meaning today than when it had back then. The world is in a state of delusion.

[@robertcoker4648]

"sleeping on a feather bed of lies" has an entirely different meaning now Jane, as you know. The entire song has more meaning now, I absolutely love singing this Masterpiece, "you want know yourself, when you finally do", they don' t write um like this anymore. ♥️

[@brucekat53]

Love this song!!!

[@patriciagoodwin1922]

beautiful

[@tdpjjb1939]

I love my music today's so much variety,But I just fold in two & weep to this Lp. Johnny has always made a sobering,humbling feeling inside. I was very Young ahead of my time to recognize music than my same aged peers. This is good & still works for me when I think I need to step back & account for my life did I live it the way I truly wanted? Todd

[@shirleydunbar6970]

beautiful song and beautiful

[@johnknottenbelt2502]

Just so beautiful ! The whole album is great ! Takes me back to my days in Broadway Court 1975 & onwards when I learned to really "get INTO the music" ! How, you may ask... Just like brian Wilson of te Beach Boys advises.... put all the lights off, so as not to allow yourself to be distracted from the music, put headphones on & slip INTO the groove. Try it, you too may learn what "Getting INTO the music" is all about ! :D

[@swinedance]

Don't get to do that much anymore, but when I do this is one of the songs I take with me.

[@Artsartisan]

"Realization" and "Homegrown" are among Johnny's finest albums. Contemplative, searching....special! Thanks for posting these songs from Realization.

[@markwalls9072]

Great song from a truly great album

[@lilysandoval4152]

Johnny Rivers, TRULY TEAR-JERKING VOICE !

[@euell]

this is the REAL STUFF from such an amazing album !!

[@manuelgaspar2181]

Linda canção dos anos 60/70.

[@teoflores9121]

Jhonny Rivers sos único que tema 2023 sigo escuchando x siempre 🤩🤩 👏👏👏 BUENOS AIRES ARGENTINA

[@FabioSilva-lo5bl]

Quando ouco essa linda cancao me volto aos meus 23 anos de idade

[@monicacpetersen]

👑 Mr #1

[@swinedance]

Until I heard this forty years ago, I thought the only song Scott McKenzie wrote was San Francisco. This song is much better than that. It gets better as it gets older.

[@briantimmons3044]

Scott McKenzie didn't write San Francisco John Philips of the Mamas and Papas wrote because Mama Cass said so when she introduced him and the song as the Monterey Pop Festival but i stlll love this song,Johnny Rivers and this whole album

[@brucekat53]

That's me sleeping all the time!!!

[@solmendes6634]

Linda esta canção, demais !!!!!!!!

[@duffgordon9005]

He is the best doctor of the healthy and wholesome healing in this mean world. Oh I drift around , but he mKES ME FEEL LIKE i HAVE BEEN TO A GRACEFUL, Church, no pretensions, we are all sinners. JR no doubt has grown into this role of TAKING THE RESPONSIBILITY of keeping the nasty out of his music, and Dylan I believe felt it both being "brothers" with the crooning soulful vibe. No tricks. No gutter trash...... Both men refuse to be branded and provide such diversity, rearely disappointed, only good disciples. Lastly- Rivers Voice. Really listen to the minute' subtleties- almist like a song-bird in creole land lol.

[@jab353]

I very much agree with you!

[@duffgordon9005]

JR - the most diverse recording artist in history, Remember how many ;greats were dead at 25, here at 78> Dennis Wilson, ny favorirte t beach Boy- his pure vice extremely rare -because of smokes and drink , compare to JR, where I will die not having heardf= ahh his cuts
