Kenny Loggins & Stevie Nicks - Whenever I Call You Friend | Asia and BJ

[@jenniferfoster1692]

This song was huge, always on the radio. Two legends.

[@petercourtien4581]

My first 45 record.❤

[@kenperkins7921]

Those were the days

[@jwgoulet]

It was always on the night time easy listening station…

[@MCMNasty2]

Yesssss! So glad someone did this one. It’s an old school classic. No one ever talks about it and Stevie’s vocal here is soooo good.

[@NoahFroio]

One of my favorite duets - Kenny Loggins (Loggins and Messina) and Stevie Nicks (Fleetwood Mac) - both had MASSIVE solo careers, but this duet just shines so bright and brings me memories of my youth... I am sure that my Mom must have played this song a million times as I was growing up - I was 10 when this was released - great memories, thank you.

[@dawnmarieallenkent2495]

Thanks for pulling this out of the "oldies" vault! I even remember the friggin words... been about 20+ years... thanks for the blast from the past! ❤️ you guys!

[@AsiaandBJ]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@arlenezamora8367]

Beautiful duet by two great artists.

[@MARKB3946]

An instant classic. Such great lyrics and vocals.

[@raeann63]

this was stevie at the height of the CLARITY, sound, control, and freedom of her voice. within 2-3 years she would have to change how she sang due to the damage of endless touring, recording, and horrible cocaine habit. listen to how different her vocals are on her 1st solo album BELLA DONNA (which i absolutely adore). this duet with kenny is my most favourite of all her collaborations over her career. it is a classic, filled with strength, hope, and optimism of true friendship and love. thank you for choosing this wonderful song! ❤

[@MCMNasty2]

❤ agreed

[@PassionGrows]

It doesn’t matter what decade you listen to Stevie, her voice is amazing and unique in all its different facets and tones. I love them all from Dreams, to Seven Wonders, Illume to how she sounds today.

[@impishsongster333]

You've probably heard it in a grocery store, or on the radio somewhere. It is most definitely, a classic. It will outlive all of us. And I'm not mad at it. Humanity needs songs like this. 😊❤

[@bkm2797]

Such a warm and sweet tune that reminds you of friendship and the celebration of having them. Thanks Asia and BJ

[@jellyrollnorton]

"Whenever I Call You Friend" exudes joy. Masterful vocal arrangements and “See love flowin’ on us every night". A classic.

[@angelawhite3058]

Ohhhhhh I had such a crush on Kenny Loggins!

[@ericsmith6615]

Wife here...I was a very small child when this dropped and I Looooooved it since..Love the harmonies of these 3...Thanks for the Awesome Selection as always!

[@donvito2682]

This song reminds me of my first car. I use to hear this song on the car radio. I worked and saved all my money through the summer of 1978. Then I bought a 1970 Chevy Caprice. It was a white 4 door, black vinyl top, black interior with 56,000 miles on it and ran like new. I paid $700

[@chrisb9577]

This song peaked at #5 on the Billboard charts in late 1978. I was in 2nd grade and it became my favorite song at the time. 45 years later its still my favorite all time song.

[@joannavasquez1220]

"Whenever I call you friend" has a very deep meaning for me. One girl two guys. One my very best true friend. The other my first young love. I lost them both. Long tragic story. But I love this song. It will always always remind me of how fragile our hearts are and how strong they can be. Beautiful song! It is possible to love two people deeply and differently. Difficult choice for someone to make being so young. My neice always told me I reminded her of Stevie Nicks which I was extremely flattered and I carry that compliment with grace and humility. 😊Ms. Nicks has a heavenly voice! 🪽🙏Mr. Loggins is very talented and a handsome man. He has a couple of songs that I really like! 💖"Easy driver and"Don't fight it"

[@sfbaydennis]

This song came out during the fall semester of my senior year in high school and it was one of those songs that was on the radio a lot...very popular!

[@allenwhitmer8192]

Wow! I always love when Asia sings parts of the song when it's over, who knew BJ would sound great humming along! Id love to hear Asia sing one of these classics with BJ humming background vocals! Great reaction, guys

[@gerardroll6468]

Asia… Thank god you found the volume switch at the start as I thought there may have been an audio issue. I hadn’t heard this in such a long time & it brought back many fond memories of times with “that special someone” I was dating back in my early 20’s. Much love fam… I hope & pray that your whole family are well. Much love & best wishes always… From Australia 🇦🇺✌️😎🇦🇺

[@Bikebrh]

Back then, Stevie Nicks was about the best Duet partner you could ask for. This song was a big hit, John Stewart had a big hit with her as a duet partner with the song "Gold", and a couple of years later she had hits dueting with Tom Petty(Stop Dragging My Heart around) and Don Henley(Leather and Lace)

[@shawnfynn7889]

In my book, 2nd best pop-song from 1978, incredibly well-crafted and executed. Kenny Loggins outdid himself with this one.

[@garyarnett1220]

Asia .before it starts, how could it fail but to be good. Kenny and Stevie.

[@jeffreyallen-uw9uh]

LOVE this song-was playing on Mom's radio in the kitchen when I was a kid-haven't heard in forever-Thanks

[@liammarucci8154]

❤❤❤ this duet… Loggins was opening for Fleetwood Mac, and asked Stevie to lend her vocals and he pushed her to the limit…. Originally to be with Melissa Manchester, there schedules conflicted…. We got Magic with Loggins and Nicks😊…. You’re the glowing light in my life…..ohhh everything takes me back to you…..🎉

[@jackiegoodspeed1849]

Love Stevie. Love this song. Very versatile artists we had. Never knew which way they were going to go with songs

[@Jill-ni8fe]

One of my fave songs ever thanks for reviewing! Such a great vibe, the harmonies are so perfect they both sing their butts off. ❤️

[@charlesfitzgerald9631]

Oh ! That frickin BASS line !!’

[@Jules-um4yy]

Have always loved this song with two dynamic artists. The melody is so cool. Kenny Loggins range is insane along with Stevie's unique voice. Thanks for reacting to this one🧡

[@Triggerhippie70]

When you combine these two it’s magic. One of the greatest songs of all time.

[@janetf23]

This one really showcases Stevie's strong rolling vibrato perfectly. And Kenny's sweet, laid back folksiness. Good choice👍

[@chantellecline6945]

I have been waiting for someone to do this song for so long!!! Yeah!!!!

[@suzy260]

Stevie said that Kenny cracked the whip to get the best vocals possible out of her. And it worked. She was exhausted but his perfectionism in both singing and producing this song paid off with one great duet.

[@christianmattison6096]

Love hearing Stevie sound like her heart is unshackled and free to enjoy all of love's goodness!!

[@marqmars3599]

Stevie has a duet with Don Henley from the Eagles, "Leather & Lace" that is great song as well as a duet with Tom Petty, "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" which is also another good one.

[@kengruz669]

You two hit it on the nose with this one, in how you each so succinctly summarized what the song did to you, how it made you feel and what you loved about it.

[@mike09271974]

It's amazing how we can see the moment Asia falls in love with this song... song ain't even done and she already singing it!

[@gigantor62]

This was a hit in Australia during late '78. Great selection and reaction guys.

[@susanhoh1414]

Many love songs in those days. Big hit thanks for giving me a trip down memory lane.

[@christopheryochum3602]

One of the catchiest songs I've ever heard. Just a note...this song was co-written by Kenny Loggins AND Melissa Manchester. Just a suggestion, but, if you want to hear a fabulous singer, Melissa Manchester.

[@gerardroll6468]

Stevie Nicks is an all time GREAT … Unquestionably 👍😁💿

[@joelliebler5690]

One of many great songs and huge hits that Kenny has had over 50 years. Try reacting to This Is It, and Celebrate Me Home among so many more!😊

[@tommythompson9565]

Something about this song. Written in such a unique way. Like Paul McCartney's "Band On The Run" ... it's like 3 songs in one. But the best thing about it ? It simply sounds fantastic !!

[@statnerd9263]

one of my favorite duets of all time - a great "pick me up" song!

[@angelskunk2206]

I had totally forgotten about this song! So glad you played it because it takes me back in time to my childhood. It really was one of those songs you heard EVERYWHERE and it always made me feel happy inside ❤

[@susanmaggiora4800]

This song is one of those that catapults me back to the 1970’s!

[@eviekelpie1]

So happy you finally got to this one. A hidden gem which not many reactors do. Another gem is Stevie Nicks and Don Henley (The Eagles), Leather and Lace. They sound stunning together

[@Cherazny]

Thanking for doing this classic song by Stevie Nicks and Kenny Loggins.

[@sassymess7111]

I remember hearing that they actually didn't get along during the recording. But this is a JAM. Just FYI, sll the different voices you hear harmonizing in tje beginning is ALL Kenny Loggins.

[@terrimilka7805]

One of my favorites! I would wait to hear it on the radio.

[@scruffyroses2796]

I LOVE this song!!! TY! She did a great duet with tom Petty...Needles & Pins

[@chuckd2219]

Good morning family great reaction! Thanks for doing this one I forgot about this 1 Let's take it me back. Kenny Loggins Stevie Nicks Great pair two great voices Mixing together beautiful!

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

Like a love that puts you in a good mood when you just think of it. That’s what this evokes, good happy feelings that makes you want to love someone and dance about it ♥️

[@marthaz]

It's a classic combo - 2 legendary vocalists. Can't go wrong.🔥👍 for another power duo, check out Michael McDonald and James Ingram, "Ya Mo Be There." 😉

[@craigmarkowski7156]

You have definitely heard this song , they've used it in many commercials and movies throughout the years ! You would also be surprised to know how many duets Stevie has done with various people ! Especially in the 80's , A lot of people wanted Stevie involved in their songs !

[@carlbaker7242]

Excellent choice.

[@MamaT160]

Bringing back memories for me! Stevie Nicks sounds as great today as she did 40 years ago! Check her out singing with Harry Styles.

[@marilyncintron3864]

You guys are great. I love the variety of music you listen to.

[@johnthegreek5836]

I think both of them are great great artists

[@lindajardee]

Love, love, love this song, the very beginning of it is so cool

[@leahdoerr731]

Hello from Cody Wyoming! You guys are awesome😊 you fulfill my day

[@jackiesconiers4230]

Great reaction! Thanks for keeping great music alive!

[@SG-js2qn]

Loggins and Nicks both did several duets in this era. Pretty much all of them big hits.

[@_blueskies]

If I had a bitcoin for every time I've grooved to this on the radio. About to run that last 30 seconds back!

[@scottvanhille5688]

Ok, the song ended and a mic drop just happened. Such a good song. I think Stevie can do a duet with practically anyone and kill it. This song was in the 1995 movie Safe with Julianne Moore and an episode of the tv show Glee back in 2014.

[@liammarucci8154]

❤❤❤ this duet ….makes me feel good🎉

[@sonyawasmer2344]

This song takes me back to 5th grade! 💗💜💗

[@tylerhackner9731]

Love this duet

[@Triggerhippie70]

I feel blessed growing up during this time. Music was amazing

[@JD_ATX]

Melissa Manchester wrote this song with Kenny Loggins (and sings backup on the track) and she recorded her own version but not a a duet. It's a decent cover but nothing beats the original.

[@edwardcrews2952]

Such a fantabulous song by two legends

[@jwgoulet]

That bass player was feeling it!!!

[@lizd85018]

I love this song I'm glad you reacted to this

[@kilroygirl7347]

Sometimes you just can't beat a golden oldie. Great reaction as always! ❤❤

[@naturemom57]

I love this song and i love you two..you are such a great couple❤

[@donnabannister793]

Love this music 💃💞💃 Great song!!! 👊💯❤️

[@seanwilliams3103]

the bass line in this is killer

[@paulkliger6164]

Great reaction. Strongly recommend “Celebrate Me Home” from Kenny Loggins (with Bob James).

[@jeanniedebartolo5965]

One of my absolute favorites from yesteryear. 💜

[@malkum77ify]

Grew up during that time period, the music was very different and much more optimistic than it is now.

[@mmt.o.m3637]

❤ one of my favorites

[@SRGots]

I'm so happy you did this one!

[@tinahairston6383]

Yes, BJ...what else? lol. One of my favorites!!!

[@sassymess7111]

This was written by Krnny Loggind snd Melissa Manchester. Please react to her song "MIDNIGHT BLUE ".

[@miguelbotelho2613]

you’re such an awesome couple always love your reactions. Keep em coming.

[@HiddenCharmhome]

This song just makes me think of sparkles roller rink in Atlanta

[@jerickson725]

Loved this reaction. Should I be concerned that my "Like" above was #666? LOL!

[@lorriwood8545]

I missed yall Dad Gummi. Lol

[@stephaniewashburn7700]

Perfection ❤

[@roybiggs7239]

Great song!

[@sandierichardson2153]

Love this song!

[@jameswhite7139]

Try "Do you believe in magic" by The Loving Spoonfull

[@lisar.6670]

Stevie has a couple other hit duo's with Don Henley {#Eagles drummer/vocalist} "Leather & Lace ... and ... Tom Petty {RIP!} "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around". Check 'em out if ya haven't already ..

[@patrickdowdle5121]

Stevies voice is heaven sent . There is not a male that doesnt adore her

[@mikelundquist4596]

I used to work with a couple of guys who actually disliked her. I'm pretty sure that they were dropped on their heads as babies. Multiple times.

[@davehess1019]

every voice singing in the beginning of the song is Kenny Loggins voice over dubs , that's all Kenny Loggins

[@mikelundquist4596]

Check out Kenny Loggins song, and album, Vox Humana.

[@malkamusik]

Another good duet is Gold by John Stewart featuring Stevie Nicks.

[@malkum77ify]

That's the way 70s music was.

[@michelleferranti9468]

Hey! Go back and check out We Are the World….there’s Kenny Loggins!! 😊

[@patrickmgaddis]

Have you heard Stevie Nicks’ duet with Tom Petty Stop Dragging My Heart Around?

[@lizd85018]

Barbara Streisand and Barry gibb woman in love

[@kennethcamilleri4678]

Stevie would never sing this song to Lindsay Buckingham….
