SO GOOD!| FIRST TIME HEARING Paul Davis - Sweet Life REACTION

[@jamesbickerton2475]

Paul Davis was the first cousin to my wife. Both hail from Meridian, Mississippi. Check out 65 Love Affair, a song about his time at Meridian high School.

[@c.j.7752]

Loved his music growing up back in the day.

[@sticks64]

I agree. '65 Love Affair is a great song and was a big hit for him. It was originally called '55 Love Affair but his record label suggested that he change it.

[@patrickjudd4575]

It's a little more rockin' ,kind of a little different sound!!!

[@nealm6764]

Was? Did he pass?

[@DonnaS459]

​​@@nealm6764 Died April 22,2008 (the day after his birthday) April 21 1948

[@BillGraper]

You mentioned "I Go Crazy," but you never reacted to the studio version. Believe me, it's an experience like no other. That live version doesn't do it justice. I've loved that song since I was in kindergarten, when it was on the charts.

[@foreveralone11w]

100% Agree! ❤

[@cindipossidento5688]

That is my favorite song he sings !!!!!

[@RabbiSteve]

Totally agree

[@rebeccawolf4961]

Definitely need to listen to the studio version.

[@sandylee6025]

Yes please!

[@7gelis]

65 Love Affair is a totally different vibe, but a fantastic song and worth a listen.

[@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13]

Great song. It’s worth at least a few hundred listens, imho! 😃

[@leopresnell8653]

I love it when Amber gets that look on her face when the music hits her and she's not quite crying but real close. And I understand because Paul Davis's voice does that to you

[@karensheline6958]

I saw too, but I thought she looked like he was singing right to her, about her life.

[@stevebengel1346]

I think when she reacted to Could It Be Magic by Barry Manilow was probably the most emotional I'd ever seen her

[@kathyrizzi8754]

Paul Davis is a wonderful singer, I remember this song on the radio, loved it & I still do!👍👏👏👏♥️♥️

[@R-L-I]

Paul Davis was the ‘chill music’ king, you can put his music on, sit back in a chair on a porch and just enjoy the sunset, that’s the kind of music he made and I love it, RIP Paul.

[@217_Walker]

💯

[@2zxodcfm]

Paul Davis was such a great singer. One of tbe richest voices of my lifetime. I can listen to him daily, still now, years after first enjoying his work.

[@collinpillow4066]

Such a great talent who passed away too young. Thanks for featuring his great writing and singing.

[@reppi8742]

I still listen to Paul Davis! His songs go right to your soul.❤

[@steventrosiek2623]

Me , too. The best ❤

[@eclps4246]

I still have my album ❤

[@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13]

Paul Davis had some of the best ever slow/love songs.

[@Jude_196]

I SO LOVED THIS SONG when I was a young teen....LOVED HIS VOICE - and, it was just a SWEET SONG, but not "too sappy"!! All the things we girls dream of, when we're young!! HUGS, YA'LL!!!

[@davidcall5430]

Eventually, they'll get to 65 Love Affair. And then, ho boy! Can't wait!

[@hmsweet5227]

'65 Love Affair is my favorite from Paul Davis. You've got to hear that one!

[@theodoreritola7641]

I LOVE SWEET 70s Love songs like SWEET LIFE from 1977

[@dannelson99]

Paul Davis /Marie Osmond .... YOU`RE STILL NEW TO ME

[@kellyjohnson3617]

I always loved Paul Davis and this one just melts my heart with the most touching and simple and heartfelt lyrics. Very relatable and his voice has such sincerity. This song always makes me smile

[@johnbumgardner7977]

Paul Davis was such a great talent ❤

[@alejandrobojorquez6181]

JAMES TAYLOR and J.D. SOUTHER - " HER TOWN TOO ". WOW! WOW! WOW! This song is Incredible youguys should get back to James Taylor and Especially this song is a classic 1981 with a late 70s feel and sound it's Amazing!!!

[@kelqueen9998]

Good call! I forgot about this one, love it!

[@user-or1ye3iz6d]

"65 LOVE AFFAIR" is fast paced and so good!! ❤❤❤

[@richellewest402]

This is my favorite Paul Davis song ❤

[@concettaworkman5895]

Paul Davis was one of the best of the 70's.

[@theodoreritola7641]

You got that very RIGHT

[@csw3287]

Amazing... His song, "Cool night" is also a Favorite of mine

[@melmingin8445]

Such a beautiful song ,always one of my favorites!!!!

[@tinahairston6383]

He was such a wonderful artist. Another great song that I still know all the words to....can't get any better.

[@tinagriggs1004]

Oh my goodness...been waiting for this song to be done. I was almost 13 when this came out, and just fell in love with it and Paul's voice. Just dreamy.

[@alejandrobojorquez6181]

PAUL DAVIS - " LOVE OR LET ME BE LONELY " Watt an Awesome Intro you'll luv this 1981 singers and song writers Classic also " MEDICINE WOMAN " is Amazing Too!!

[@edditor]

Never heard his version so I thought I’d give it a listen. For me it’s ok but not nearly as good as the original by “Friends of Distinction”.

[@olliemerritt9279]

Love Paul Davis!! 65 Love Affair...Do Right are also great!

[@lifegood3322]

This is an easy listening banger! 🎉

[@reneestes6254]

This song! Paul seemed to know the true things in life. The important things. Taking your time, enjoying your family, finding the joy in every day God gifts you with. The things money can’t buy. I love all his music, but this one just makes me feel such gratitude for my simple, beautiful life.

[@michellem3127]

Love this reaction. There is another love song that came out around the same time as Sweet Life that I think you'd love. Both songs got alot of radio airplay back then. The song is Falling by LaBlanc and Carr ❤

[@LauraEllen999]

Your expressions perfectly summed up how I feel when I listen to this song. Incredible.

[@karenneal8302]

Thanks for sharing this amazing artist. Another great one is "65 Love Affair." It is a little faster but a lot of fun. Either way, he is incredible.

[@gina-714]

Great song! As a kid of the 70’s-80’s, Paul Davis is one artist I can listen to with my 80 year old dad and we both like him. Ironically, I got my mom’s eyes and my dad’s nose. So fitting!

[@raymondohlsen5054]

Haven't heard this in a long time! Thank you for the memories!!!

[@butterflymama0838]

Yessss!! I love this song so much. I was a very young girl when he was popular, but my parents, aunts, and uncles all played this man's music! I was born in 1969 and grew up to great, great music!! #GenXHere🙋🏼‍♀️

[@marcnovellino2028]

When I was with a woman and Paul Davis songs were playing it was going to be a good night. All joking around a side he definitely wrote some beautiful songs

[@jeanstrickland2445]

Fantastic song about loving your family wish this kind of music was more prevalent nowadays!

[@mikekling]

I'm so thankful that my parents listened to this type of music while I was growing up, because now I tie these songs back to fond memories and appreciate the beauty and talent that classic songs have. So blessed to have these awesome songs as a soundtrack to my life. Please also check out his songs '65 LOVE AFFAIR - DO RIGHT - great bops!! Also, Donna Summer's WANDERER, Donald Fagen's NEW FRONTIER - GREEN FLOWER STREET. Keep smiling y'all!!

[@gododgers081]

65 Love Affair is a Jam!!!!

[@tylerhackner9731]

Wonderful singer

[@rwschumm]

This is one I remember very well... I suspect it's his biggest Hit; I knew the song as soon as I saw the title! Love It... Wish they made songs like this still.... Great Reaction, You Guys! :)

[@memorylane7068]

65 Love Affair, and he a 1976 hit called Superstar.

[@theodoreritola7641]

And sweet life is from 1975 i was 15 young ones

[@carolmartin4413]

Aw..every time this came on the radio..we zoned out and swerved to the smooth sounds of this song. So sweet ❤

[@maxr4448]

Love this song! Thanx Paul Davis, and the Rod Squad for playing this.

[@brucefrancis6222]

One of the best young family beginning love story song ever written. "65 Love Affair" should be on deck!

[@daleofficer1709]

Such a great singer, such a great song. I don’t think Paul Davis ever wrote or recorded a song I didn’t like. Later on, he had a hugely successful career as a country singer throughout the ‘80s and early ‘90s. His song with Tanya Tucker and Paul Overstreet called “I Won’t Take Less Than Your Love” is guaranteed to bring a tear to Amber’s eye, but in a good way. For more of Paul’s pop side, you should check out “‘65 Love Affair”, it’s a little more upbeat and I think you guys will enjoy it. ❤

[@jamesgonzales5285]

🙏🏻 Paul Davis a most underrated artist, and musician... Thankfully, there are many, many fans of his creations, that you were able to being his music to more, and more! 🙏🏻

[@cog4life]

Just love those sweet song. 🎶 I love Paul Davis. This is such a precious oldie. 😊❤

[@BACKTOTHEPACIFIC]

I was born in the 70's and remembered hearing my mom listen to Paul Davis. He has always been one of my favorites , RIP Paul Davis 💔

[@Citizenesse8]

Paul Davis is soooo underrated. I love this song..

[@josephvalenzuela311]

@Citizenesse8 Well said.

[@barrylippard1846]

Paul Davis. An American treasure. Such a sweet soul.

[@billreilly7693]

I go Crazy!!! What a great song, amongst many of Paul's songs. 🥁☮☘

[@allendixon7700]

Yeah, that's the kind of brother that all the women else up remember S.A. Y they won't.Oh, alright.Question mark f*****, find yes, thy getting thy getting magnified.Treat, what's a Tyrone a chick with Tyrone? I'm not Mr.Perfect or wrong question mark

[@littleogeechee223]

Such a sweet song, too! Those first lines break me up always!

[@rickparman7040]

"Ride 'em Cowboy" from 1974. You'll love it

[@darinaria]

By far my favorite Paul Davis tune.

[@masapell]

I love the way the horns sit underneath giving texture and color to the bottom end, very much like Chicago’s horns in the song “No Tell Lover.”

[@danrudloff]

Paul Davis will always be timeless

[@Tank4Life]

I forgot about this song. Thanks for reminding me of good days!

[@DianeJohnson86]

Paul Davis is amazing listen to “I Won’t Take Less Than Your Love” with Tanya Tucker Paul Davis and Paul Overstreet singing on Hee Haw

[@kathynuchereno4655]

Forgot how much I enjoyed this song and his voice. Thx for sharing.

[@beckiramsey9561]

Another awesome song, so beautiful! Definitely should do ‘65 Love Affair! I see that in another comment, another great one!!❤❤❤ Awesome reactions you two!! Brings great memories!!❤❤❤

What a soft gentle soul who left us way too early. Great selection of heart felt hits for the gentlemen.

[@KellyShaw-w1z]

Paul Davis had one of the most beautiful, soothing voices. You should listen to Frankie and the Knockouts Sweetheart and Not another lonely night. Lead singer has a great voice. ❤

[@patrickjudd4575]

Sweetheart takes me back to the summmer of 81'... mellow jam!

[@michellecasey5752]

I haven’t heard this in such a long time. I was a pre-teen when this song came out and I dream d I would get married and be just like the words of this song. It’s a great look back. Thank you.

[@jdw5678]

Paul Davis was a master of late '70s pop. His very first hit, from the mid-70s, was "Ride 'Em Cowboy," a song in a more country-folk vein. Also a bit of a sad number, a song about missed chances in life.

[@chuck7356]

Singer of Songs and Teller of Tales is my favorite album ever. When Paul passed away a couple of years ago, I posted about it Facebook. A good friend of mine from Macon wrote me and told me that he played tennis with Paul a lot in Macon. I was so touched. Listen to the rest of the album if you get a chance...

[@willfromyadkinville]

great song and a great guy! R.I.P.! gone way to soon!

[@kinnonmoss]

One of my favorites of Paul Davis. This song's message resonates so much life. What a treasure in song that I never tire of hearing. Good reaction, peace folks. P.S. At another Paul Davis reaction time, you ought to check out/react to "Do Right" and/or "Superstar" [it is lyrically nothing like the Carpenters tune, and is full of cameo references of other pop/rock stars of that time]. I think y'all would get a kick out of it. Hold the fort.

[@josephvalenzuela311]

Thank You. Great reaction of such a great song and great singer.

[@CynicAtLarge]

Love this song and Atlanta dude Paul Davis. I used to tell my kids this was the cannibal song - "She's got your eyes, she's got my nose".

[@debra146]

😂😂😂

[@JT-ok6re]

This song was my third grade teachers favorite song! She would play this 45 on the record player in class. It was awesome his voice is so smooth.

[@phantomcollector1976]

ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG'S OF ALL TIME

[@LittleWolf194]

Some other great songs by Paul Davis; 'You're Still New To Me', 'I Don't Want To Be Another Love', 'Meet Me In Montana', 'Cry Just A Little' :)

[@waltw4537]

Great tune Had forgotten it. Nice. Yes. Had forgotten. Thanks.

[@darinaria]

Amber, I really get you. I enjoy you so much. Thank you guys.

[@cweefy]

A life long favorite. The man was so talented. Great Great soft rock.

[@chrisvanderhoof9990]

Always loved Paul! Great voice with a deep warmth to it, and a decent range. Great songwriter as well. He did and awesome duet with Marie Osmond on this song!

[@rlaj1968]

One of the best voices I’ve heard love his music ❤

[@peterokeeffe8307]

You guys describe what you are hearing so well and have a real feel for the music. Brilliant to hear that. This song is a great choice. Paul Davis has has some awesome songs that were never even singles. But following on with his singles check out his hit '65 love Affair'.

[@ronnix23]

65 Love Affair should be your next one by him.

[@lorinelson7401]

Love love love Paul Davis! Great song

[@ChrisLagos77]

This song to this day is on heavy rotation in Florida oldies stations .

[@ChrisLagos77]

Thanks for playing this amazing singer Paul Davis ....you guys have such joy ....please react to Europa by Gato Barbieri on tenor saxophone. Best Always !

[@tlo35]

Paul is a smooth singer.. enjoy all his songs.

[@johnniebravo5985]

That was a good song! I'd never heard that before tonight!!

[@darrylmilling2747]

I'm in tears I haven't heard this in decades always loved his voice this song is 🔥

[@nancypocock1525]

Forgot this song! Thanks for the review and bringing it back to my play list 😂

[@victorcruz-xr2lo]

If I could suggest to the both of you to give 65 Love Affair a try. It a song that charted the highest on Billboard pop charts during his career, which is saying something after he delivered some classic like the I Go Crazy, Cool Nights and Sweet Life. It's a change of pace song compare to his others. You won't regret it. It's a fun song and hopefully you guys will like it. BTW it's my first time commenting here and I just want to say that you guys are killing it, I'm a little late to the party and don't know what world that I was living in but better late than never. Discovered you two about a month ago but I have been playing catch up from what I've missed from the last two years. So fun to watch and love the passion that you guys feel about music the way that I and so many people do. I enjoy it very much. Thank You!

[@lordbiscuitpowerslamnation]

It's funny the song was one of my favorites. Growing up is a young kid teenager, but I can only remember the sweet life chorus

[@magneto7930]

You need to check out "65 Love Affair" next!

[@livechilllife]

This song always makes me smile so big as I sing along ❤❤❤

[@br1anv1c0r3]

This song made me cry when i heard it after my son had his first daughter. She does have his eyes. I grew up with this!

[@danielrustom9732]

Sure can tell it's gonna be on her playlist!

[@DonnaS459]

Remember this .....classic song.....love it

[@AbcDef-iq4no]

This song has aged so well. I remember when this song came out and it still sounds good today, particularly the ending of the song which gives me goose bumps it is so sweet.

[@heidivert830]

One of my favorites 😊. Rip paul❤

[@chriskrueger8225]

65 Love Affair by Paul Davis is a must!

[@troc55]

Paul Davis and his music are some of my favorites. He puts you in such a great mood! You guys should try some Hamilton Joe Frank and Reynolds. They have a very similar vibe. Falling in Love is awesome.
