[@april4244]

Definitely a great song.. I'm not in love!

[@bradsouthers7476]

"I'm Not In Love" is a one of a kind song. They recorded vocal "ahhhhs" for the different notes and then "played" the song using those vocals. It's not a capella... I don't think there's a name to describe it. You just have to experience it.

It’s crazy, I was born in 72. Grew up in the 80’s and loved freestyle (Jersey girl) and club... r&b like new edition, Keith sweat etc. THEn, as I got older only did I learn to appreciate groups like Queen, Toto, Eagles etc. Now in my forties, I listen to it all!!! And share it with my college aged son who seems to have good taste in music. Music heals... Thank you for these vids!!

[@marciloni12]

When my friend's 3 1/2 yr. daughter comes over, I put this on and her eyes close and she dances with such passion as the music takes over!!💓 It makes me so happy!

[@diannevaldez8670]

And these three were GORGEOUS!!!!! The one in orange was on a soap for awhile.

[@GJRight]

You ought to listen to Christopher Cross, “Ride Like the Wind and Seals and Croft, “Diamond Girl”. Both are fantastic 70’s soft rock classics. You will like them! 😀

[@madmex2k]

Christopher Cross had Michael McDonald as a backup singer on some of his songs, as well as other well known band members.

[@ym61]

I was going to suggest Seals and Crofts. Jamel would have stink face maximus in no time with Diamond Girl 🥴

[@cheznardi]

Ride Like the Wind...and the theme song from the Arthur movie!

[@alternadiva2010]

Seals and Croft, "Get Closer".

[@allendixon1044]

Just imagine there's this is like the Twilight Zone imagine this you're in a band called player and you sing the song Baby Come Back crying crying baby come back to the player is crying baby come back so how sad I wonder what the Pleiades

[@M00159]

Yes!!! Love your reaction!! You know why?? Because you get it!!! You see their talent! You see that this is a kick ass song! Nothing worse than someone who just doesn't get how special a song is. I was hoping you weren't one of those people, and you didn't disappoint...thank God. And I agree 100% when you say you need to see the singers...absolutely!!

[@robertstinnette1926]

Thank god ,I was born 1969 and got to hear this music and the eighties. Fabulous

[@matts6272]

Silky smooth, this one was destined for #1 on the charts.

[@therewolf615]

70's music like this was the bomb. I could listen to this stuff all day.

[@timsparks4990]

Best line I've heard in a long time. " 70s! YOU DAMN RIGHT"! I was one of the lucky ones to grow up with this music. My generation had the BEST music of any generation up to this point! HANDS DOWN ! No auto-tune, just great voices and great music! I love how well you knew this song and would come in at some of the crescendos like you were playing one of the instruments! That's how OUR music gets you! Keep VIBING on those 70s hits! Like your reactions a lot Jamel.

Bobby Caldwell: "What you won't do for love"

[@lauramarinaperez8325]

Talk about smooth!

[@2bteachable2]

Now that would be a reaction to watch. Especially if he's never seen Bobby Caldwell!

[@hockypro2555]

Bobby Caldwell is the definition of smooth from back in the day...

[@11dsw]

I think he did this one already

[@Wicked99Ways]

He did Bobby Caldwell already. He couldn't believe he was a white guy LOL. I couldn't either! I never knew even after all these years that Bobby Caldwell was not black! Brother is smooth!

[@southfloridadcl]

i loved growing up in the 70's.the music back then is still great know.

[@karaokesinger1758]

Talking about smooth and soul music, old musicians and artists spotlight will never fade. So timeless. There's something like magic with old music that is not here right now in our times. I'm glad at least we have BRUNO MARS.

[@keithdrewv1161]

It's funny that you appreciate the music more when you're able watch the group or bands play their songs. I couldn't agree more!!! Its also one of the reasons why I hate that MTV & VH1 no longer play music videos

[@scarletjohnston741]

Yeah it really stinks 😑

[@potiswad]

I just love to watch the younger generation appreciate music from my generation. It just gives me confirmation that the music was really good and it's not just cause I'm too old to appreciate good music.

[@ssteacher78]

This song is fantastic and never gets old. It's a whole feeling 😌

[@DG-america]

What a phenomenal era the 70's were. The funk and soul was prevalent in everything. The sounds were so smooth, you couldn't help but move when you heard it. Excellent pick Jamal.

[@brookebarker8022]

FYI, Ronn Moss, the bass player, was Ridge Forrester on "The Bold and the Beautiful" for 20+ years.

[@musicandmoviefan9217]

Jamal has the gift of joy. He brings Joy with each and every reaction and its why he is my Number 1 Reactor.

[@ursulaturner7980]

The one in the red/orange shirt played Ridge Forrester on the soap opera The Bold& The Beautiful!! Lol He's a good musician. BTW Not that I watched it or anything🙄😆😂

[@donnamcmanus7360]

I had forgotten all about that, then that stare into the camera😜

[@ursulaturner7980]

@@donnamcmanus7360 yeah, I just happened upon the video on you tube and I said to myself, self that guy looks familiar and then boom it hit me ....Ridge freaking Forrester!! Lol

[@heidithatswho.2481]

His name is Ron Moss. Love him❤

[@jasonwilliams6005]

No. You never watched it. Never once. Well...maybe once. Maybe sometimes. Ok fine. You watched it. 😁

[@ursulaturner7980]

@@jasonwilliams6005 HaHaHa.... oh I'm a 70's kid(born 1972), The B&B was in the 80's. My grandma watched it ALL the time and sometimes I watched with her. Had to be a good granddaughter.😉😊

[@timliao2541]

This is one of those One Hit Wonders. It's like they put so much into one song, they just can't replicate that magic again

[@howardganim6099]

Player put on a great live show. Icaught them and Heart at the Richfield(Cleveland)Ohio Coloseum during the late seventies. That concert was the maiden effort for a live" Simulcast", an effort to broadcast on radio and television stations across the U.S.A. That was a landmark event in the days before internet.

[@deelight7747]

These songs make my heart sing....filled with so much memories and joy.
