Kenny Loggins, Steve Perry - Don't Fight It | REACTION

[@wendyhowe2178]

Steve Perry the best male vocalist of ALL time. Been a Journey MEGA fan for 40 years!

[@Steve-cm2ys]

Slow and Simple

[@msbolan]

Their voices work so well together; I wish they had done more collaborations together.

[@badredfinn2982]

This song still rocks after 40 years!!!

[@mariaday712]

Give Steve any song and he can make it his own. Steve has a set of pipes on him no one else ever has. He also is a great person. I love Steve.

[@gram5751]

Always liked Kenny but Steve is a vocal beast 🙂

[@jamoca67]

One of the best songs of the 80's. Totally underrated!!!!

[@ronbishop3289]

Steve and Kenny....AWESOME! what a catchy song!👍

[@dave0915]

2 of the most distinctive male vocalists of 70's and 80's. Kenny has duet with Stevie Nicks "Whenever I Call You Friend" (I mentioned it in the live chat)

[@cerscil]

You cant help but be happy when you here this song.

[@helendirenzo3392]

I know each generation loves their music but this song just hits it for my era- the 80s were hands down unbelievable - the artists, the songs- all the feels 🙌🏻😬

[@SpottedQ]

Over his very long career Kenny has managed to sing, pop, rock, r&b, country, folk and children songs. His vocals are amazing, always.

[@vincechampion3031]

Kenny is awesome. Steve Perry is The Voice. Great song and great reaction

[@kimpalko3391]

Steve Perry is my all time favorite but Kenny Loggins is great! If you’ve ever seen the movies Caddyshack, Top Gun or Footloose you’ve heard Kenny.

[@lorendunk5057]

I'll have to watch those. Never heard of them.

[@cathleen6104]

You guys are hilarious. And that tune was incredible. Two great voices of rock history.

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

Love me some Mr. Perry!!! Fun Fact!!! Perry was on the road when this amazing song was made!! Kenny had laid his tracks down at his recording studio and Perry laid his tracks while on the road! My best friend and I were HUGE Classic Journey fans back in the day (well I'm still a Classic Journey fan). And I remember when this song first it the air waves. It was played alot back in the day. It's still a great rockin' song, after all these years!

[@mikestevenson576]

Kenny claims they were in the studio together.

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

@@mikestevenson576 ....... Yeah, maybe they were. It's my understanding that the song was written and recorded while Perry was on the road. Kenny did his part while Perry did his while on the road. So, who knows!!...lol...

[@stevenhowell8331]

Kenny does an interview where he said they just wanted to do a simple song together. Maybe why a few extra “don’t fight it” in the lyrics. He said they were both in the studio singing at the same time. But non the less, it is just so enjoyable to hear those voices just soaring to the great highs. I is on my favorite rotation. Listen to it every day and don’t get sick of it. Just brings a smile to me in thinking, especially with Steve Perry, how great of voices they had.

[@SueK51]

This song was nominated for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal at the 1983 Grammy Awards. The guitarist is Pat Benatar's husband, Neil Giraldo. Why Pat and Steve never did a duet is beyond me. The Earth would explode.

[@landreaulover]

This song was very popular on pop radio in 1982, but oddly not played as much as it should be now.

[@thegraggs]

Definitely fire 🔥 The guitarist was Neil Giraldo from Pat Benetars band. Guy can rock it! This was almost an all star band.

[@cjpew]

I don't know if you've reacted to Journey at all - if not, it's a must. Mother Father live in Houston will knock your socks off. Steve Perry was a vocal genius (and still sounds pretty good).

[@berdy5064]

Yes! I love that song and Steve's performance. Another awesome live performance from Journey is "Still They Ride" from Tokyo, Japan 1983.

[@Thejazzfan66]

Ah, memories! I was a junior in high school when this came out. Both of them were in their prime!

[@gloriagaddy]

Great reaction! This collaboration was the one of my dreams, being a fan of both Kenny Loggins and especially Steve Perry. I loved it the first time I heard it in 1982 and still do to this day. It has that early Rock n' Roll influence from both their backgrounds, with their vocals showcasing their individual strengths. You can't help but be in a better mood after hearing it.

[@topherwhite370]

Kenny Logins did everything from the hard rocking “Danger Zone” to the children’s song “Back to Pooh Corner”

[@traciebenko-petrie3461]

If you are looking for another duet, Kenny Loggins & Stevie Nicks, "Whenever I Call You Friend" is a must hear.

[@stephaniewilson1153]

Another song I have not heard! Holy cow what a fantastic song. 🔥🔥🔥

[@danoguitar]

This was on Rock radio at the time for decades after it came out. Not so much nowadays. Its a shame.

[@gailjohnson5950]

The Kenny Loggins dive is deep, and begins in the 70's with Loggins & Messina. Two of their very best are Pathway to Glory and Angry Eyes, then Kenny's later solo stuff, like This Is It, Conviction of the Heart,(a real banger!!) Leap of Faith, Footloose, (yes, from the Movie!) so don't hold your breath at the edge of the rabbit hole, just jump right in, you won't be disappointed, I promise! Thanks to my 3 favorite guys on You Tube!! Best wishes for this new year!

[@bl18ce99]

Angry Eyes is my favorite jam song done live.

[@shawnski001]

This is a 1980s nugget. Glad you mined it! :P

[@badredfinn2982]

Thanks for the shout-out to White Cliffs of Dover -- great tune by a great guitarist, Eric Johnson.

[@KrazyKatLadyx2]

I've honestly never heard this before and it's from my era. Good find 😊

[@lensnart1303]

Always loved this one and the High Adventure album. Two of my favorite singers.

[@deelawson4551]

I love it too!! Always have! So happy you reacted to it! Kenny was the King of the 80s for Soundtracks (Caddyshack,Top Gun,Footloose) and Steve(well of course he is my fave,saw Journey twice with him,AMAZING) Please check out more of both,esp.my Steve :) Keep On Rockin'

[@davidelswick6660]

Kenny Loggins has a song called "Heart To Heart" from that album. Good song too.

[@rickhawk22]

One of my favorite songs, period! Kenny is the king of hits and especially soundtrack hits from the 80’s. From Top Gun to Caddyshack and Caddyshack II, Footloose, I mean the guy is a master!

[@RustyHinge]

When you are pleading with someone, you tend to repeat it... thus, "Don't Fight It". Always listen for the emotion in a song. If you do this, the repetition will be less bothersome. Great overall reaction of a great, underrated song. Perry is the best, btw.

[@Topgunphoto]

How could you have not have heard of Kenny Loggins? Danger Zone & Playing with the Boys (VB scene) from Top Gun, Footloose, I'm Alright from Caddy Shack(Classic Movie) Whenever I Call You Friend with Stevie Nicks is Gold

[@metalchicdeluxx2683]

OMG I forgot this song. Yes it was played at the roller rink.

[@wendyhowe2178]

Every single Friday night. Awesome song! Brings back so many amazing memories.

[@garyatwood-mendez6465]

I’m glad you reacted to this. I remember them playing it on the radio when I was a kid.

[@joelhammond4162]

Duet with Stevie Nicks - Whenever you call me friend. Also, the song Celebrate Me Home.

[@nancymartineau-bauman6018]

Back in the day this was played on the radio a lot. Love Kenny Loggins music.

[@dtilt1]

I love your reaction when you all laugh cause you like it so much

[@marshabailey772]

Steve mopped the floor with Kenny Just smooth and effortless...incapable of a bad performance

[@MotleySchuh]

I remember sitting in front of my stereo/tape deck receiver waiting to push record as soon as this song came on. Yes. 🔥

[@orlandociacchi6111]

Try journey anyway you want it it's a great rocker!

[@gram5751]

Particularly live in Houston!

[@cynthiabustamante2884]

I remember blasting this song when it first came out. Everytime I played it I felt kinda bad ass.

[@heathergossett3828]

It’s is perfect !

[@jirinejedly540]

Pitty, that this song has no video. Maybe that's why it peaked only on #17 / 12 weeks on Hot 100. Unusual thing - it plummeted from the #17 all the way to #76 right next week.

[@jenniebirchfield7218]

Awesome!!!!

[@jamesmotes1]

Love this song.

[@gizmoitus]

"Swear your love" off this same album is a banger.

[@ttaylor758]

A really underrated song

[@leemiracle6840]

I loved this sing when it came out but for some reason it got lost in the crowd. Pat Bennetars husband Neil "Spyder" Geraldo on guitar.

[@dickieburbank]

Just discovered you guys 30 minutes ago. Great stuff! Two songs you'll love-- "Magic" by Olivia Newton-John. She passed away a couple of weeks ago. John Lennon said this song is a perfect pop song. And Christopher Cross' "Arthur's Theme." A sax solo you will absolutely love. Crazy good song.

[@glennawhiteman742]

I still have this on a 45 record! Ya had to pull this one out of the rafters! Lol Ya got to try some Early Journey!!! Infinity, Evolution and Departure albums are all fire! With founding keyboardist Gregg Rolie, the music has a different feel to it.As compared to the later album's.

[@sirrobin4394]

Good reaction, gents. I completely forgot about this tune. :)

[@chadmiller1768]

I remember that guy in the middle. We were all drinking and dude was swimming in my backyard. I didn't even have a pool. Classic times.

[@ViewsFromThe502]

Thanks for watching bro!

[@lydmarl.475]

Surely sounded like a sneeze to me!!

[@carleysdad94]

Neil Geraldo on lead guitar

[@williamfisher8239]

Angry eyes by logging and Messina, their live version is fire but jenny had hits before going solo and then hitting it big with this collaboration with Steve, a collaboration with Stevie nicks and the title tracks for the films footloose and top gun. Steve and Kenny share their long time money managing attorneys and entertainment firm and had just performed together on the USA for Africa iconic track.

[@jamesyeatts5706]

Try Steve Perry’s “O Sherry.” Totally great.

[@dennismoore3383]

Heart To Heart off this album is more of a This Is It vibe. Check it out, as well.

[@bobr4987]

Did You notice the whip sounds? They recorded this on the sound stage where the Indiana Jones movie crew were recording sounds for the movie. So I guess they sampled the whip sounds and plugged them into the song. also 80's mega star Pat Benatar's husband was playing the wild overdriven guitar.

[@bedazzled64]

Okay guys, you really need to check out Supertramp (70's/80's) Especially off their album Breakfast In America

[@nicholassauer606]

SNARKY PUPPY! the song is Lingus. the best keyboard solo ever and much more.

[@DocRaunchy]

I really don´t think this song is fire, even though Loggins and Perry are amazing. But you guys going off to it makes me smile big time. YOU GUYS are FIRE.

[@bl18ce99]

You guys have to check out anything by Loggins and Messina. They made at least six albums together.

[@orlandociacchi6111]

the guitarist is neil giraldo...pat benatar husband

[@garyatwood-mendez6465]

Check out Journey’s “I’m Cryin’”

[@valerianportus7409]

The guitarist is one Neil Geraldo: Husband to Pat Benatar

[@stevecappello9620]

Hello gentlemen, thought I take a moment to say Hi! I recently subscribed to your channel. I found it very entertaining. I saw your reaction video review for April Wine “Roller” and laughed my A-Off. They are definitely Rockers! I thought I might suggest for your consideration their song and official video “I Like to Rock”. If the over under bet line for making your playlist is 1 minute, I’ll bet the under. I know you’ll love the 3 guitars and the drums, but the bass player finally gets his dues paid for with this song.I would also like to suggest to you to classic groups and songs that have great guitar rifts; The Outlaws, “Green Grass and High Tides” and Blue Oyster Cult, “Veteran of the Psychic War”. And for your consideration in the Horn Section of music the great Band Chicago, with “Feeling Stronger Everyday” , “25 or 6 to 4” & “Questions 67 & 68”. I think you might like their rabbit-hole of music. Until later, greeting from Rochester, NY. Keep up the good work! Thanks again

[@cjpew]

All great suggestions - but for horns (and other great instruments and vocals) I also strongly suggest Lighthouse - One Fine Morning, Sunny Days, pretty much anything.

[@carlroza102]

Luv the simultaneous head shake😂no,really!

[@garyatwood-mendez6465]

I don’t think that this has been added to the Kenny Loggins file yet.

[@UNREG1STER3D]

Great reaction! Keeping on the topic of 80s songs you guys should do a reaction to another ELO song! I recommend Secret Messages! Its the title track and opening track of their album Secret Messages in 1983. It's a unique song that's a bit different from what their known for. It's one of my all time favorite songs. You guys would be one of the first to react to one of ELO's songs from the 80s

[@marshabailey1121]

Kenny is a decent singer but Steve Perry is SO much better.

[@joemachine4714]

I hope you'll react to my two favorites off this album: "Heartlight" and "Heart To Heart" 👍🏼👍🏼

[@wpochert]

Not a roller coaster.. just proper song structure....Intro... Verse ..Chorus ... Verse.. Chorus.. Bridge...Solo...Chorus .. Outro ...Back when music was real and played by real musicians.. even new music figure as it ends. Young people today have way too short attention span. This is a cool song, infinitely better than most of what radio has played the last 20 years or so, but it barely broke the top 20 back when it was new... that's how good music had to be to make the radio and chart at all.

[@sherrihimes7357]

❤

[@billhallisey7298]

Guys, great song. Go Bengals! Sorry Ty. One of my favorite reactions you guys did was Band Maid Onset. Since it was an instrumental, you need to react to one of their songs with vocals. My suggestion: Domination(the official live video). It will show their individual talents and how well they interact with their audience.

[@heatherturner6955]

7:25 to 7:33!!! ❤

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Danger Zone by Kenny from Top Gun - would be perfect for you guys. And Nobody's Fool by Kenny from Caddy Shack.

[@jesseguerra1442]

If you get a chance listen and watch the video of Steve Perry Strung Out

[@kobbe68]

....this song shows up as GUILTY PLEASURE in my playlist

[@Okrabatze]

gesundheit... hahaha love from Germany

[@josephdow5428]

Dud Neil Geraldo play guitar in this?

[@skye62]

Nice reaction guys! Check out Loggins and Messina ,Mama Don't Dance 🙂🔥👍

[@serawasnever2902]

Smokey Robinson Cruisin?

[@kevinhothan4284]

You guys are great if you want to hear some good sax Try candy Dufler Lilly was here her was Han Dufler you will love it

[@AmyW-qo4se]

Hadn't heard this, can't believe it. Both so good, but steve man...

[@EC-dz3fb]

🤔ᴴᴹᴹᴹ You boys ain't mocking this now, are ya?

[@ViewsFromThe502]

The opposite!

[@mikeboston421]

just hit you guys, you get ALL THE BEST SONGS!, awesome, everything i'm suggesting i have to delete because you've done it, this is great, a great song, great singers, great great great

[@johnnyo8903]

Y'all are crazy. Actually Kenny outsings Steve on this one. Steve is one of the best vocalists ever but Kenny is the real deal on this one.

[@saraheart2804]

I have never heard this. Kind of cheesy. HaHa.
