Reo Speedwagon-Keep on loving you-LIVE

[@DevilDave59]

1981- I was 20 year old, and this song was at every party and club we went to, fantastic song, fantastic band, fantastic times.

[@colinremmer2417]

Man, 1981, where have the years gone?

[@ComplexWork]

I’m jealous. Wish I was born and lived through that incredible era

[@cozartboy1573]

You're old af

[@christiandupuis3261]

You know that a song is legendary when the crowd literally roars of joy at the first three notes

[@joseeduardoherradura9350]

[@rh5466]

Well put, Jose. Well put, sir.

[@brknbar]

Bought a few tickets for $10 back in '85.......turned out to be a triple shot consisting of REO, Survivor, & Zebra !! Best money I've spent. Thanx for posting.

[@kimrube1]

Haha...these guys were my very first concert when I was a kid. I'm now 50! Time sure flies...⏳⌚🌎

[@KaitsBaby0514]

One of the greatest love songs EVER!!!!!!! thumbs up if you agree

[@Vivaldiz]

The moment when all crowd hears what song they are about to sing.. OMG. This is simply amazing. Amazing song and band itself.

[@dew1403]

curly haired mullet, sweat bands, and track jacket.. awesome attire

[@GATvsGAT]

Yeah I know what you mean. I was a kid in the 80s and really noticed how the quality of music was so much better back then. No Pro Tools or Digi Design. Just talented musicians nailing it spot on every night. To me the 80s were a musical coming of age. I say bring it back!!

[@abelsietecuatro9249]

One of the best love songs. But this live version is even better. The intro is magic

[@coconutgrovemusicnz]

Epic records were going to boot them off the label after 10 mediocre album releases. Needing a break, self confessed folk lead singer Kevin Cronin wrote this after a restless night when his marriage of 10 years was on the rocks. Getting up one night and completing the song in the studio. The band didn't care for the song at all thinking it was far to 'soft' but in the end they went with the song. With Gary Richrath's (RIP) soaring guitar rift's, he brought the anger and anguish of the song. Hi Infidelity the album went to Number 1 in the charts spending 14 weeks in 1981.

[@balalaika0]

Great info, thank you

[@TheNabokovsgirl]

heard this on the radio today, and nearly blew the speakers out! This is such a great song!!

[@BeansAutosLTD]

Wendy go and finish off those speakers please!!

[@denisesclater759]

The best im on stage !! Then up front in Jackson,Mississippi .. at the Coliseum I worked there🎉

[@aSingleDallasGuy]

Great song from REO! One of many!

[@briannorman952]

Went to see these guys in concert around this time here in Cincinnati. They were one of, if not the best live bands I’ve ever watched. Gary was and always will be an influence on my playing.

[@johnotto4931]

Might be the best live performance of anyone, timed perfectly

[@RockbertoRocks]

I love heavy and death metal... and this song will always ROCK harder!

[@CatsPajamas23]

I don't.. (blech.) But this band rocks. Love most of their songs

[@Kampfhamster1992]

I really like the 80's songs. This one is of my favorites. Unfortunately I wasn't even born in the 80's so I missed many good songs.

[@dhermo13]

Same boat as you. I have over 500 songs on my 80s playlist

[@rashaadhenderson3160]

Speedwagon is the shiznit! Love these guys...they've still got it!

[@leecalvinmusic]

It’s like Bruce and Gary were just chilling during this part of the show. This also has the best intro to this song and is by far the best live performance.

[@islogical]

I saw them live back in '85 at Tallahassee Civic Center with my cousin... What a great night out!!! Thank you Brian!

[@cowhanson]

ah the classics...keep on lovin REO as they keep touring the world...Thank you Kevin for all the great songs like this one

[@javierameliabalzola1285]

Possibly the most memorable guitar solo of the entire 1980s....rest in peace Gary....you are SO MISSED

[@fritzschultze6538]

I played with them as drummer in 1980s really good band and respectful band

[@AjemanChannel-il3ci]

Thanks For Sharing. Awesome Gig. I Love it, > Toronto, Canada

[@usmc9543]

RIP, Gary. You were great, man!

[@lisaboje3640]

Going to see them again (#5 I think) tomorrow night. I never get tired of seeing my 80's arena rock bands!

[@jerrycat11]

My favorite song of all! Has been for 20+ years! Thank you

[@Qkudzu]

Great 70s-80s girls on the front row.

[@denisesclater759]

I'm the one with curls...lol..I worked at there...Jackson Mississippi

[@Tommyblueeyes]

just awesome, ive been a musician for over 30 years and this one....get me everytime

[@Liberal_US_Army_Vet]

Saw twice on concert...Puerto Rico & Iowa (Iowa State...I went to college there in the 80's...yeah, I know major culture shock for a kid from PR)...along with Journey, one of the best to see live.

[@hawkster81]

These guys are still one of the great old bands along with Styx and the rest who still perform these timeless classics. They just stick to you like glue because of the meaning and great harmonizing lyrics. Great up. Better than studio. Im actually going to be at their concert this coming saturday.

[@BRH4711]

Love his facial expressions, lets you know he's getting into his amazing music.

[@rwsales]

One of the all time great rock ballads!

[@goreobasurero7848]

A true musician can create immortal lyrics, can play instruments and sings from the heart all the way to the lonely souls across the universe, hey kids this is true music!

[@jimmyhoffman6932]

One of my favorite bands of all time.

[@fabmusicman4]

Es la mejor versión en vivo para mi de este tema...aun tengo el vhs de una disco-pub que trabajaba y cuando cerró mi jefe me regalo varios vhs.

[@VHEELMAH]

oH BOY!!!! REO is one of a KIND!!! I hope they will still do this kind of music.... LOVE YOU SO MUCH GUYS!!!!!!

[@retrotheband]

Sounds amazing live. Seminal power ballad.

[@cperez8860]

I love this performance!

[@neilchristopher7520]

Wish I could go back in time. Just for the music and the laughs.

[@MrNostalgiaX]

I love Dave Amato, but you cant deny the vocal harmonization of the Cronin/Hall/Gratzer combination. Wow, it's so rich here as opposed to the more recent performances. Just incredible! Probably the best live performance of this on youtube yet.

[@qtkitty4u]

i can just picture a ENORMOUSLY great friend of mine watching this!!! hope he sees this comment and like magic, a knight in shinning armour comes and rescues me. In my wildest dreams....best songs are always the old ones...

That note he hit from 2:43-2:45 is priceless. Much better than the studio version.

Lol----my 1st concert ever!!!! I was 14, got lucky that night and still do whenever I play this song!!!! A classic!!!!! Any Last American Virgin movie fans???

[@djchocolatemilk]

just saw them live today they still and will always sound amazing wooooooooooo

[@twinstu50]

G'day from Australia. I'm lucky enough to have been 'around' when REO was emerging, and, let me tell you, it WAS EXCITING!. Check out the visuals, no post-production editing, re-mixing and so-on, just PURE quality, gotta love it!. As for "no one from my generation listens to this", don't sweat it, just keep on loving it, and let this fabulous music be our little secret, if 'they' have no interest, then that's 'their' great loss. Welcome to the club.

[@josephstewart2827]

REO was one of the best . Kevin with his great delivery says it all

[@jamesconnolly1201]

MTV 1981 - 1984 WILL NEVER BE TAKEN AWAY FROM ME. The simple on stage live,or on stage faked or with the band acting is so precious !!!💪💪💪✌✌✌✌✌✊✊✊🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍👍👍

This song came out in 1981 I still have th original LP

It is too good and a tear does not stop.

I can't belive I found this video after 34 years after it was shut off in front of my face in a group home in Carlsbad California. Wow! Found it by mistake

[@leslieweison487]

pretty love song!!!REO still has it going on!!!

[@Christine1966]

they have many really good songs......in the 80's

[@cuhullan89]

This was the most overplayed song on the radio when it came out in 81..I think..anyway they played it so much that it was a very hated song at the time. But now, all these years later it stands up as one of the best rock ballad/lovesongs of the day...thanks for posting it.

[@rickmahal]

you can feel such sweet emotion in this song....One of The greatest Love Songs all time...

[@pansyfaye1]

Kevin was no pretty boy, but he sure could sing and write good music.

[@stevenfifield7667]

That was an odd comment. Lol

[@dapper763]

@@stevenfifield7667 The band kind of spoke to this around the time when Kevin Cronin joined the band. They said something about him not having the good looks a frontman should / would usually have, but damn was he born to be a music man.

??? Maybe who he is somehow...idk how to say this but he somehow was moreso.

Great Great band, I love you. My respect and specially to Mr Gary Richrath, one of the best 🎸 guitar riffs from the 80's

[@AmericanGraffiti1962]

Out of all the rock artists from the 80's only 4 people can sound as good maybe better live than in the studio. 1) Freddie Mercury (Queen) 2) Phil Collins 3) Jimi Jamison (Survivor) 4) Kevin Cronin (REO Speedwagon)

[@joeyjokester]

I want to see these guys live at least once. I have seen REM, and they were absolutely amazing. Now I need to see REO, U2, Phil Collins, and the other oldies that absolutely rock. It sucks being born in 1987, all the good music was from the 70's and 80's.... At least I have an amazing record collection comprising of more than 300 33's, and 1 or 2 45's.

[@yang9692]

keep on lovng u s romantic song by speed wagon song

[@larainne]

finally found this song after a long search...this song will be in my reception...^_^

[@jypsyblue685]

In 1969 REO Speedwagon played at the Gauntlet in Carbondale IL SIU.........that was the beginning....heard them several times, disco ball and all at the Gauntlet....I think they also played In Charleston IL at EIU at "Rocks" might have played at The Crystal In Effingham too........Lots of places in Champaign ,,this band is the best!!!

[@theunknown4570]

What a absolute DREAM and BLESSING it must be , to be a singer in a band where every person can play their instrument just like the record every night. Unfortunately i sang lead vocals in a band that the guys couldn't remotely do that.

[@robynhawkins48]

All coiled up and hissin' . My fave

I have recorded an LP of REO from radio approx 30 years ago behind the Iron Curtain (there were no copy rights in Communism!) in Hungary. Never saw them but this LP (with this song) became one of my all time favourites! Nice to see finally the faces behind this great song!

I am a hardcore hiphop fan but his is a really beautiful song put together with alot of emotion.
