People didn't use auto tune in the 80s. People actually had to know how to sing.

[@deejones8196]

Auto-tune or a variation of it was used in the 80's and 70's by maybe a handful of artists and groups, but it was rare.

[@debiterrell3829]

Richard page knows how to sing. I love his voice

[@andyclark1337]

Great vocals

[@TSGEnt]

Richard Paige can sing and still sounds great. Absolutely no machine. Catch him on Ringo Starr's all-star band. They do this song and there is NO autotune nor is Richard lipsyncing. Real musicians here no joke. Carry a laser down the road I must travel!

[@livingtorture5745]

They didn't autotune live. Defending robot singers is so 2008

[@ryanr4664]

Kyrie eleison (Lord have mercy), down the road that I must travel Kyrie eleison (Lord have mercy), through the darkness of the night Kyrie eleison (Lord have mercy), where I'm going will you follow Kyrie eleison (Lord have mercy), on a highway in the light

[@footloosewill5569]

I actually nevver realized till now what this song was about. one of my favorite 80s songs and all my life i thought it was about a woman lol. but , Ty kyrie elieson means " Lord Have Mercy" in Greek. The song is essentially a prayer

[@lemhanback9595]

Thanks for explaining that phrase, I don't do well with foreign languages. Think I was also in high school at the time. It was probably the feel of the song that got its popularity back then. Now I know there was a good message in it as well. Lol

[@footloosewill5569]

@@lemhanback9595 oh i didnt know that myself. i looked it up lol

[@Abe-rz1nm]

Same. I was a teenager in the 80s and I never really listened to this song but I always thought Kyrie was a woman! I just re discovered it and found out the meaning. It's such a beautiful song, I can't stop listening to it.

[@lizjoe21750]

Same here! I always thought they were singing to a woman whose name I couldn't pronounce correctly, hahaha. :P

[@pownbnull]

In the Bible the Greek translation should read Yehowah (Jehovah) Elieson..."may Jehovah have mercy"....they removed Gods name and replace it with "Lord"

[@charlesmiller6826]

Kyrie Eleison is Greek for Lord have mercy. It is from a prayer said at every Catholic Mass (and some Episcopalian). The prayer is Kyrie Eleison, Christi Eleison, Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy, Christ Have Mercy, Lord have mercy.) It is our supplication to the Lord to prepare our selves for what we are to receive in the Mass.

[@robertschneider1977]

Lutherans too.

[@bethshadid2087]

Actually CHRIST in Greek is CHRISTOS

[@MilosDaddy]

It's Latin, not Greek!

[@swyzzlestyx]

@@MilosDaddy It's Greek, but it may also be Latin.

[@Barcodum]

It’s the last bit of Greek remaining in the Traditional Latin Mass. Server: Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) Respondent: Christie Eleison (Christ hame mercy) Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) Christie Eleison (Christ hame mercy) Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy) Christie Eleison (Christ hame mercy) In the Roman Rite (Traditional Latin) Mass as prescribed by the Council of Trent. Sorry. Had to verify a couple things before actually finishing the post.

[@artfartzy]

Love this one from Mr Mister, one of their best

[@matthewlee6168]

I was a freshman in high school in a small Texas town just north of Houston when this song was released. I remember it was a HUGE hit and we heard it on the radio constantly. It wasn't until I was converted to Christianity in college that I learnt what Kyrie eleison meant. That brought me a whole new appreciation for the song.

[@FeaturingRob]

This is probably one of my favorite songs ever...probably top 10. I was a teenager in the 1980's when it came out...and an atheist. However, I was so interested in spirituality and in mythology thanks to Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth, I realized the significance of 'Kyrie Elaison' as part of the Latin liturgy in Catholicism. What I love about the song is its deep spiritual message that is not about religion. It is about finding your path, without fear, guilt, or any other feeling but love, placing yourself in the hands of God, the Universe, or your own belief that you are "following your bliss." This has been an anthem for my own rather eclectic spiritual journey. Thanks, Ty...you made my night with this one. I am so stoked you loved it!

[@MrAnamchara]

Thanks for explaining this more mate as the songs message holds very true to many people's struggles, myself included. I can take a lot more from it now than when I was about 10

[@willrichardson519]

We need to have mercy on and be kind to ourselves.

[@secolerice]

Loved Joseph Campbell. He explained what I already knew but in such a beautiful way and helped me to continue on my path.

[@soyboy29]

Omg!! Me too. We are twins mentally

[@TinaICXCNIKA]

How likeable and refreshing are YOU, #ModernRenaissanceMan? I LIKE IT! First time I'm seeing you and it's because I always loved "Kyrie" (which by this time, I'm sure you learned many details about, but...back to YOU)! FIRST off, no other channel I've ever seen has asked people to 'get to know me before subscribing'...SAY WHAT?! That's awesome! I was basically done with 'reaction' videos but you're different...not superficial, not chatty and interruptive during the tune, you're not overly expressive or interactive with your audience during the song (soooo many 'reaction peeps' could learn a lot from you)...you're really listening. Big respect on this...well done! Blessings on you and yours, is my prayer. BTW, now deep in his 60's, singer and bass guitarist Richard Page can still sing this and sound just like he did then!

[@linkfromhyrule5504]

Yup, this was from the 80s, and before autotune. The 70s & 80s were the best decades for music. I was kid in the 70s and a teen in the 80s. This is before music went down hill like the 2000s and 2010s.

[@lucindajones701]

[@rddav1]

My kind of woman! I grew up in 3rd Ward Houston TX and graduated in 1983. My taste in music was totally different from about 98% of my classmates. But I didn't care! I wore my Def Lepard t-shirts and my Genesis and Journey pins on my jacket...proudly!

[@RecordStoreDeva]

I’m in the same boat. I grew up in the hood, blasting Mr. Mister. I didn’t care. They were the bomb back in the day.

[@wolf762x51]

Richard Page, bassist and lead vocalist is a great writer and singer. After Mr. Mister , Richard went off and wrote and recorded contemporary gospel. There are a lot of religious aspects to the music of Mr. Mister. They're back touring again, and I've heard, back in the studio for a new Mr. Mister release that will pick up where they left off, keeping the core of their sound intact. They were a very good live act.

[@muppetsstoogesfan1]

Where'd you hear that? I think that might just be a rumor. Richard Page tours with Ringo Starr's All Star Band now.

[@wolf762x51]

@@muppetsstoogesfan1 , I heard it on Richard Page's Facebook page. They've gigged together on a good bit of the 80s reunion concerts. You never know what comes from intentions. It may or may not happen. They were't in the studio yet and that was about a year ago.

I’m 45, so I never got to go to a Queen concert, but still love them... and I know lots of reaction videos are for them or country... that’s awesome .. but Thanks for doing the videos with the artists I grew up on that are great in their own way, Mr. Mister, Bon Jovi, Poison, George Michael, Bruce Hornsby , Mr Big, Garth Brooks, George Strait, etc .. all of which like you say, CAN actually sing , harmonize and play... so glad a newer generation gets to hear, experience and appreciate all of this. Thanks again !!

[@CarmenTorres-sx2bk]

I was a teenager at he time this song was released.. what I remember about this song was the different sound of the keyboard and the great harmony with a very catching chorus. I never knew what Kyrie Eleison meant until a few years ago, since we’ve been praying it a lot during Mass. It so happened that the radio station played this song and I was happy to hear again after so many decades! They mentioned the definition of those words & I was stunned to know this great song had such profound meaning!

[@MrGau911]

I grew up with this song...togehter with songs like Africa, Rosanna, In the air tonight, David Bowies Let's Danse. And so on. It is so cool to watch your face during the song. And it's so nice to see a young person recognizing quality music. Thumbs up for you!!

I learned something for the first time as well...that "kyrie" is defined in a phrase that means "Lord have mercy" from some church's historical records...for decades I thought this name in the song was about a girl... great to learn something that boosts my faith a teensie...thanks again for posting this !!

[@grimgrinningtracy9157]

The guys were all top professional session musicians that decided to do their own thing. I saw them multiple times, even Richard Page, the lead singer alone, their voices are the real deal. This song came out in 1985 and auto tune wasn't used until 1998. Page was a session player for Quincy Jones, and wrote and composed for Michael, Al Jarreau and many more. I got to talk with them, nice guys. This was the huge when I was in high school, reminds me of great times with best friends, it was part of our life soundtrack.

If anything takes immediately to the 80's it is the long overcoat, even if it is not down to the ankles ala Duran Duran / Rio album cover. :) The drummer Pat Mastelotto went on to play e.g with David Sylvian and in King Crimson when the tour backing band of Sylvian's including one Robert Fripp turned into a new incarnation of King Crimson. The bassist / singer Richard Page has collaborared with Japanese ambient musician Kitaro. He sang on "Caravan" which originally is an instrumental theme made for documentary "The Silk Road".

I was 20 when this song came out. I was in college where I was supposed to be a computer programming major, but I couldn't stay out of music class. The amount of time needed to studying math for computer programming and practicing and playing concerts in jazz band and marching in the marching band burned me out. One day, while trying to decide what I really wanted to do I heard this song while driving to work. At the end of the semester I left school and started working full time. Two years later I joined the Army. While in the Army I submitted my first novel for publication. It was rejected, but writing has given me the strength to keep going when things got really difficult. And when things got really bad, this song comes out of nowhere and I remember what passion really means and I start to get back on track.

[@erikwolfarng]

So here I am, 3 years late to the party. This just popped up in my feed (Probably because I just binged-listened to hours of Marc Cohn, Bruce Hornsby, and yes, Mr. Mister). This song was like an anthum for me in 1985. I graduated High School and began (what has become) a life-long career in the military. This song has Faith. It has energy, and it has the amazing ability to make you feel good, no matter where you are or what you're doing. I'm glad you discovered Kyrie. I encourage you to look more into Richard Page and his work. He's performed with everyone from Twisted Sister to Michael Jackson. Solid artist with a heart and passion for music that inspires.

The '70s is where 'arena rock' was born. The '80s...it was perfected. 'Kyrie Eleison' means "Lord have mercy", and is from a Gregorian (monk) chant. Instrumentation was recorded first with a 'dummy' lead vocal. Backing voices were next. We used to do it with many people surrounding one mic...then sing it again...that's where you hear the natural chorus effect. Finally, the 'dummy' lead vocal was scrapped, replacing it with a 'keeper'. Keep up the good work...

Kyrie Eleison is Greek for Lord Have Mercy, as others have explained in the comments, it is the response of the faithful to almost every prayer in the Orthodox Church; when we pray for one another, the priests and bishops, the world, peace, the sick and the departed. When the Orthodox pray this we mean Lord in the sense of the Holy Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; the One; the Thrice Holy One in Essence and Undivided.

Hey, Man! I was in high school when this came out. i am a music minister's kid. Ty---it means "God Have Mercy". Richard Page is the bass player----he was asked to join two groups: Chicago, after Peter Cetera left, and Toto, after Bobby Kimball left. He turned both of them down----to do Mr. Mister. stuff. Check out the record this tune comes from, "Welcome to the Real World". Richard is on toru with RINGO STARR's all star band. (YEAH, THAT RINGO STARR!)..... Keep listening. PS: AUTO-TUNE WAS USED BUT ONLY WHEN ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. THE REST OF THIS WAS DONE IN A LEGIT REAL STUDIO, SOMETIMES DOUBLE AND TRIPLE TRACKED, AND SOME TUNES TOOK 3 DAYS TO FINISH. THAT WAS BACK WHEN STUDIO PLAYERS HAD 3 and 4 gigs a DAY. The industry has changed so much! Keep listening to the older tunes; no matter what genre. Mr. Mister was one of those very talented groups. Chicago, Toto, Mr. Mister, Genesis, Kool and the Gang, Earth Wind and Fire,, Mike and the Mechanics, Steve Winwood, those are who I heard in high school and college. MANY others.

I have heard this before, but never seen the video. Loooove it ! These guys are really lucky to have found each other because singing high harmony like that for a male vocalist is extremely rare.

Kyrie Eleison" means Lord have mercy

[@fabrisseterbrugghe8567]

The first time I heard this song, I was in a cab coming home from the train station. It was a Sunday, and I thought the cabbie was listening to a Christian station. He wasn't. I've always loved the song, from that first surprise listen. I was living in Germany. The cold war was still on. A couple of months earlier, I'd seen parts for Patriot (nuclear) missiles diverted through the town where I was living. This song gave me hope for mercy and a better world. A couple of months later my sister told me that a friend of hers complained about "the nonsense syllables" in the chorus. Sis explained to her the whole "Lord, have mercy" part of it.

Another great reaction to an awesome Group Ty, 😀😊😀 (If you have not already looked it up, 😀) "Kyrie Eleison" is Greek for "Lord, have mercy." It is used as a prayer in both Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox services. Greek was the original language of the New Testament and it was later translated in to Latin. ... But that happened three years before writing 'Kyrie,' and had nothing to do with that song. Same thought process of thinking it was 'carry a laser' as previously commented😀😁😂😁😀 Have a great rest of your week, 😀

I remember seeing Mr. Mister in my hometown back in the eighties and they were loud. I had ringing in my ears for days. I won't forget these guys any time soon, which is a good thing. This song brings back fond memories of walkmans, double feature shows, MTV, Much Music, leisure pants, 8-bit computing, etc. etc. Good times...

I saw this band in concert as the warm up act for Adam Ant one week before this song hit the radio waves in California. They put on a great performance for being such a new band.

I will never forget getting to see them perform live on Grad Night at Disneyland, they performed when Videopolis was still there, and it was AMAZING!

Before Autotune……. I love the fact that you can replace "Lord have Mercy" and it still flows perfectly.... One of my all time faves.

[@jankypop-a-matic58]

The mix and harmony of this is off the chain and timeless!

[@melissatang859]

This brings back super fun memories of cruising in a little red sports car across the country, from Baltimore to San Francisco, while playing tunes like this!

@MRM... this song inspired hope, peace in a time of my life dealing with a narcissist marriage... Conflict between my promise to God to honor my commitment... or leave. I was also struggling with a job that was placing allot more work on my plate too. Actually, my doctor advised me to choose one or I would end up in a padded room (yeah I know it sounds extreme, but no place to relax and breathe..) Of course, I chose to try to save the marriage. Long story short, I finally woke up in a cold sweat one night, knowing I couldn't envision another 10-20 or more years in a broken situation. I did leave, but not until 1993. I still listen to this song for inspiration, prayer for guidance over the decades of my life. May "Lord have mercy" on all of humanity that asks and accepts it. ❤️🙏

I had almost forgot about it. But I knew what it meant at the time and it was on the radio when I took my driver's license test - and then I was told to turn off the radio for the test (no worries - I past.) S till, it reminds me to be thankful for the Grace that has been granted down the path I've traveled and hope will keep traveling.

[@jaspercomp1]

I grew up on that song, It always provided motivation to me when I was in the Army - good running song, on cassette, on my Sony Walkman! which I still have lol.

[@stopthecrazynow]

I was in my 20s Very inspiring fun Life was great times of peace Innocence is definitely gone !! Sad 😓😓😓

[@horoszkodevora5095]

You are right. 80s song. My era. Im impressed you caught on to it. Very impressed.Im Hispanic. This song makes a person feel it.

[@jo9354]

This song reaches down and takes you to a higher level! Eighties music has an optimistic, exuberant, joy-of-life energy to it.

[@geoffoutdoors]

My favorite song as a kid in the 80s...! Still one of my favorites. Pretty cool i landed upon your reaction video haha...nice idea for a channel.

[@MsCathy42]

This is one of my favorite songs from the 1990's. Yes this is about the Lord guiding him in life. I was 30 years old and just loved this song.

[@caa1000]

1985 written all over this video! My childhood! :)

[@tiaelina1090]

Oh yeah love, love this song. Cant remember when I first heard it but I remember driving to and from the beach on hot summer days with my best friend listening and jamming to it. Love the music it stays in your mind. Thanks for this.

[@mowm88]

YEah this was from early 86, these guys were session guys who formed a band. They really were good--and vanished after 2 yrs. So weird.

[@robynhawkins48]

This been my SHIT since 85! I am so sorry that you just feeling this song. Lord have mercy! I'm a sista too.
