If you angels only knew how you lift me up. And then there is Joe Cocker, with his gritty voice and Jennifer Warnes with her angelic voice... I've come to know that it's not about the quality of the voice, it's the passion.

[@donkey3187]

From Officer and a Gentleman...classic..need to watch that movie. It's iconic to our culture, a lot of references are made to this movie.

[@CurlieGrl]

"An Officer & A Gentleman" "Steel Magnolias" "Silkwood" "Norma Rae" "Blade Runner" "Erin Brockovich" are ALL movies you guys need to see, whether you "react" to them on your channel or not.

[@Gevalher-Prime]

"Greased Lightning", "Fame" (the old one), "Flashdance", "Grease", "White Nights" (I really love this one, makes me wanna dance, everytime I rewatched it)

[@xzonia1]

Agreed Angela! Great recommendations! :)

[@loristone9242]

Yes! Norma Rae is so good. I just watched that again the other day, but this time with my son. He was surprised by it and loved it. Excellent suggestion.

Jennifer Warnes was the Queen of the Soundtracks back in the late '70s and the '80s. She sang "It Goes Like It Goes," the theme song to NORMA RAE, which won the Oscar for best original song at the 1979 Academy Awards. She took home a Grammy in 1983 for "Up Where We Belong" and then another in 1987 for "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" from DIRTY DANCING.

"Almost Paradise" by Ann Wilson of Heart and Mike Reno from Loverboy. It was from the original Footloose soundtrack. Another great movie duet!

[@RetroClassic66]

Now that you’ve heard this huge 1982 hit, you have to see the movie AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN! It’s really a good story with strong performances by Richard Gere, Debra Winger, and Louis Gossett, Jr., who won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in the film. This song also won the Oscar for Best Song the same year! Since it was co-written by Buffy Sainte Marie, she became the very first Indigenous person to win an Oscar!

This is one of those songs that when it comes on, you have to sing it, you will sing it!

[@SteveWang251]

Your discussion of how Jennifer brings purity and delicateness to Joe's gruffness is spot on. Here's what Jennifer herself had to say: "I always thought the pairing had a strong ring of truth to it. It was so unlikely, because Joe has this well-known, very raw, masculine energy. I was less well known and had this very vulnerable, quintessential female energy and we were very polarized, as men and women often are these days. But we met in the middle." She is a terrifically underrated and versatile singer, able to sing with an ethereal sweetness (in the verses) but also with strength and power (in the choruses). She always serves the song and never oversings, which is essential when singing with someone as emotive as Joe Cocker.

[@TheNotedHero]

One of the greatest songs ever made. And one that triggers some early childhood nostalgia for me. The softness of her voice and the grit of his - perfection.

[@clare1061]

That mellow side of him & how he can bring it down & still have that grit. I really miss him and what he still had to give us.

"Endless Love" (1981) Diana Ross and Lionel Richie - from the movie by the same name

[@Shrykespeare]

If this isn't a cue to watch "An Officer And a Gentleman", I don't know what is. I'm not sure you've reacted to a Richard Gere movie, but either this or "Pretty Woman" needs to be the first. It's a great movie, and Louis Gossett Jr. won an Oscar for his role. I don't know much about Jennifer, but she had a hand in two of the biggest movie songs to come out of the 80s, the other being "I've Had the Time of My LIfe" from Dirty Dancing. As for Joe... well, what can you say about Joe? If I had to nominate your next song of his, it'd be "The Letter". The piano is FIRE!

[@violettompkins206]

Oh yeah! Have always Loved this song ✌❤🎶

[@joanfisher1079]

Now you have got to watch An Officer and a Gentleman on movie night. The final scene works so well because of this song and collaboration. You cannot go wrong when great music adds to the emotional response by the audience to a film. Also Lou Gpssett Jr. Shines with Gear and Winger. This was such a huge pop hit but the film was amazing.

[@johnvancoller7315]

Beautiful song. So many memories. Thank you

[@loristone9242]

This song is so beautiful, it's almost spiritual. I was raised in the Assemblies of God church, and they are so strict on music and stuff. But my pastor was so moved by this song, he played it during a Sunday Morning service at the time this song was popular. He just stood there at the pulpit taking it in with us. I was like 13, and I loved rock and popular music, so I had already heard it. I can't ever remember him playing a secular song ever, with this one exception. He said he felt like The Lord moved on his spirit to play it for the congregation. I don't know why, but I cried tears during that service while the song was playing. 💖 Excellent reaction.

[@willdwyer6782]

The woman who wrote this song doesn't publicly claim to be a member of any church, but she has expressed agreement with many beliefs of the Baha'i faith.

[@Gloren50]

One of the great love songs of the era written by a Cree Indian from Canada, Buffy Sainte-Marie. She was a fantastic singer-songwriter starting in the 1960s and she's still active. She has written songs for many artists. Among her hits were Universal Soldier, Cod'ine, Until It's Time For You to Go, God is Alive Magic is Afoot, and Up Where You Belong (that Cocker and Warne recorded). It would be worth it to check out all of those songs, no matter who the artist is. Although Buffy also recorded them on her own albums as well.

Williams released his version in 1962.

I was 14 years old when this song was released. It's certainly stood the test of time. My favorite duet is a hidden gem that not a lot of people have probably heard. In 1994 an album called Rhythm, Country and Blues was released. It contained duets by R&B/Blues artist with Country artists. My favorite song on that album is my all time favorite duet. It's "When Something is Wrong with My Baby," sung by Patti LaBelle and Travis Tritt. Y'all should definitely check it out, though you can only find audio only versions on KZbin. To the best of my knowledge they never sang it live together, which is a crying shame!!

This was a major song for the movie. "An Officer And A Gentleman" from 40 years ago. Do review this movie when you get a chance...
