Welcome to my channel! This is a music reaction channel. For the longest time, I've loved creating content on the internet. I started off with a gaming channel right here on KZbin, which eventually turned into a Twitch gaming channel, but as time has gone on I've evolved into doing other things on KZbin. For years now I've wanted to create a music channel on KZbin, and recently just figured "why not?", so it’s time to give this a go! Give me any suggestion you have for music reactions, and I will do my best to get around to them. As music has fallen further out of my life, I figured this would be a great time to get reintroduced to music.

When I was 13, I was listening to to this song on pub Jukeboxes, in Northern England 1967 0nwards to this day, it is so high quality. Alan Price was the organist, top man in the uk. Eric Burden was 23 with the voice of a 60 year old blue singer, incredible. Thankyou.

[@artbagley1406]

One of the British Invasion bands of the 1960s, but Eric Burdon puts such a southern U.S. twang into his vocals you'd think the band was from Noo Aw-lee-ins (listen for his Louisiana drawl). A cautionary tale from one who regrets living a life of sin and degradation. One lyric says it all: "Well, I've got one foot on the platform, the other foot on the train. I'm goin' back to New Awleeuns to wear that ball and chain."

[@denniseldridge2936]

Hi, I had to listen to your reaction as this song was introduced to me around 1970 as part of a collection of records I received as hand-me-downs from my much older half-siblings. The song originates in the mid-60s as part of the so-called British Invasion of rock bands from the UK. They were inspired by American blues, rock and R&B that had made it over to to England in the late 50s-early 60s. This song is a traditional American one, a cautionary tale of the dangers of life in the seedy houses of ill-repute in the New Orleans of the late 19th century.

[@peterholmes3011]

The highlight - the organ solo from Mr. Alan Price.

Eric Burden was underappreciated.

[@M.E.M.O.10-50]

I saw The Animals do this song in concert in 1965. Eric Burton dramatically threw himself on the stage during one song, which panicked a security guard, who jumped onto the stage to help him, and was clearly disgusted when the singer just stood up and was fine. PS: I was just a little older then than Zoe is now.

[@marxlover100]

[@threekidzmom04]

That's what they did in the 60's....matched! lol. I loved this song back then and had no idea what they looked like! no KZbin. no mtv. haha. Enjoy these oldies!

[@friedaprince]

Yes, we had no idea what the artists looked like unless it was on the record cover or they happened to be on Ed Sullivan Show. And everyone matched, parents bought the exact same dresses for siblings, bands wore matching outfits etc.

[@henkebenke573]

Amazing too see a young girl listen to this kind off music. You raised her well. Well done Zoe! 🙏🙌

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

At 83 years old. Eric Burdon is still out there singing. When this song came out and for many years after, it was the first chord progression that you learned on the guitar with the progressive picking style.

[@PlutoAnn]

The Zoe & Shawn Show is an absolute delight, love those happy faces. Eric Burden was quite a Bad A___ in the day. Every garage band and school band and many bands really covered this song. You frequently heard new musicians trying to play this song. Thanks for the reaction .... YAY

[@joelilley6603]

The lead guitarist was smiling so much at the end because they were moving the keyboardist to the front of the room at the very end. No one ever notices that. They moved him so he would be in front of everyone at the end. 😄

[@peterfields4801]

The more I hear it the more I think this was probably the greatest single from the sixties!😎

The Animals first recorded this song in 1964, the same year I was born, and the Beatles came to the U.S. for the first time (Coincidentally, on my birthday, Feb. 7, 1964) The Beatles and I invaded the U.S. on the same day.

What was amazing about this record was that songs in the sixties lasted about two minutes, and this one was nearly five. In the playground at school after this had been on the BBC we were all so excited by this track.

[@bradsense7431]

Here are a couple of songs that feature accordion in them and both by Little Feat - “Six Feet Of Snow” or “Cajun Girl”

[@valeriesowers5954]

How Can I Be Sure by The Rascals is a good song with an accordion.

[@KJ-4321]

YES!!!!!

[@ekathrynlee7757]

Hi Zoey and Shawn, I also like the accordion. Grew up watching Lawrence Welk show. The accordion was often featured in the music. Great fun reaction, keep up the good work. Refreshing 💖

[@KJ-4321]

Yay! A 60’s song for Zoey! 😀 Loved the enthusiasm! I learned how to play that guitar part a long time ago… a lot of people did! Zoey might enjoy watching Paul Revere & the Raiders. 😀 Great songs & fun to watch!

[@Shabenn]

"What's an organ?" So young. I was still hearing this on the radio on a regular basis when I was her age. If I'm not mistaken, he's on his way back to New Orleans to go to prison at the end of the song. Good one here.

[@janb200]

Dad, this song is about a house of ill repute (a brothel) in New Orleans.

[@reneezie]

According to Songfact,they believe it originated in 1874. It's a song about a brothel,presumably in New Orleans. named after the madam that ran it. Her name was LaSol Levant(rising sun in french),and it tells of trials and tribulations of men and women

[@emerald1805]

Actually this song predates even that old version. It has been traced back as far England in the 1600s where it was originally about an opium den. Rising Sun used to refer to anything from the East or Orient, such as opium. Same as ‘kicking the gong around’ - with ‘gong’ being from the Orient, and also slang for opium. Who knows how much further back it may go?

[@captainsatellite2112]

Saw Eric Burdon and his band at the Mushroom Mardi Gras about 15 years ago. Stood about 10 ft away when he came out early for sound check. Just hearing him warm up his voice gave me goosebumps. Great band and performance. He signed my CD after and hung out a little while and talked with those who stuck around. Great time.

[@dggydddy59]

Your daughter did a fantastic job and what an adorable little character she is. You should have her on a lot more. Cheers!

[@RaLeaChaddle-kq9gi]

You both are young. I'm 52 and Animals is still before my time tho I did grow up on this song 100%. Very much a part of my growing up. Music today doesn't compare because they can't.🔴

[@sweisbrod6109]

I believe Eric Burden was 16 years old when they made this video. It was in the early 60s.

[@rosemariediamond5948]

I just found your channel. It is so fantastic that someone of your younger generation is appreciating the music of the 60’s. Especially exposing your daughter to that good music. And the past when music was based on real talent not electronically created and enhanced.

[@anitawright7169]

Love this song so much. I was 10 years old at that time. Love your reactions!

[@CarportCarl]

Cute banter between you 2.

[@757optim]

I'm sure it's already in he comments somewhere, but the tall guy playing bass became the manager for Jimi Hendrix.

[@DennisGayhart-s3t]

[@PaulRoehl-fi1iw]

Your discussion about the organ led me to thinking about the Sir Douglas Quintet. A great Texas group from the same time period. I think you'll like "Mendocino".

[@KJ-4321]

Absolutely! 👍

[@luizgustavomouragondim]

I really like this song 😍 One of the best songs ever 😍 International songs from the 50s to the 90s is the best, and that can't be denied 😍

[@tedcole9936]

Great reaction! Thanks!

[@twalrus1]

The house of the Rising Sun is not only a gambling house but also another type of adult entertainment. The hint is in the line "I'm goin' back to New Orleans, To wear that ball and chain". The old ball and chain is "marriage". He fell in love at the House of the Rising Sun and now his bachelorhood and freedom is ruined. [in the old old days, a prisoner would have a metal ankle bracelet attached to a heavy metal ball locked onto his ankle so that if he tried to run off, he couldn't go fast. That ball and chain meme was used to make fun of guys that always had a wive and kids "attached to his ankle" so he couldn't do any fun stuff..."Here comes Johnny with his ball and chain" = Johnny with his wife and kids.] "The ruin of many a poor boy" means there were a lot of pretty women at the House of the Rising Sun ready to settle down and leave that life.

[@yoker88]

I dont even want kids but a daughter like her would be awesome to have.

[@chercee]

This version of the song is from 1964. The Animals were a British band. Nice reaction! Y'all make a good team! The bass player Chas Chandler (tall smiley guy in the back) discovered Jimi Hendrix.

[@psongman9536]

I believe they slowed it down when some when they played it out after this, to make it a bit bluesier, which we did, when we played it out back then!

[@ChrisKyle-om5wi]

By 1966 Jimi was well known as a great guitarist playing professionally for 7 years, including in backing bands for some legendary acts, but never really made it in his own right. Chas had a vision and recreated him to become a legend.

[@chercee]

@@ChrisKyle-om5wi Thank you for the clarification!

[@ChrisKyle-om5wi]

@@chercee Pete Townshend and The Who (and other British bands) also had a major influence. Within the first couple of days of arriving in London, Chas took him to Pete’s studio and Pete suggested what amps and speakers to use and taught him about the way The Who were using feedback and distortion.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Zoey! ( finally got it right)

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Hey Shawn's daughter ( I have always been bad at names), it's fun having you on here, but two double down on it, it's really fun contrasting your dad covering so much ground so quickly with this channel, and really becoming super educated about it and he always brings a bit of emotion to which I like, but .... But now, it's fascinating watching you open-eyed and open-eared, checking this out. You probably missed about 80% of the dramatic adult import of the story, but you responded to it in the way you knew how, and you asked great questions, and I just love watching your reaction to this stuff. I just recently went through this phase with a stepdaughter of mine, from being a tween into a teen, and it was fascinating. I've taken her to stadium concerts of One Direction in 150 degree heat and stuff, and maybe I'm exaggerating, but really only slightly, that's exactly what happened. Lol ❤

[@visaman]

One Direction played Vancouver on the same night that RUSH did. Guess which band I saw.😂

[@Eyes-of-Horus]

You are completely wrong. The House of the Rising Sun is a house of "ill repute" in New Orleans. The rising sun was the red colored light outside the door. Originally about a woman, it sings about the life she had and how she ended up there, left and is considering going back to what is familiar. The Animals were a British Rock band in the late 60s and early 70s. They were popular at the time of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, the Dave Clark Five, and Herman's Hermits. I got to see The Animals with The Rolling Stones and Herman's Hermits in the late 60s.

[@decolonizeEverywhere]

This American version of the song is as you say, but the original song was from a very old English song and from the point of view of a woman who was one of the prostitutes in that house of ill repute.

[@ptournas]

No proof whatsoever that was the case. Musicologists have been trying to trace down the particular building referred to or if there actually is a specific building referred to in the song, and at least two of them have traveled around world looking for hints and they've pretty much all come to the conclusion that whether there was a reference to a specific place and what that place was is lost to history. Many of the claims came from owners of buildings didn't come until after the huge popularity of the version of the song by the Animals, but even though though song that was well known in New Orleans for almost fifty years before that, there were few claims before that. One woman, who's late husband was a prominent lawyer, claimed her house was a brothel that the song referred to. Yet she wouldn't let anyone see the large room and painted ceiling, yet she would not allow anyone into the room because she said it was being refurbished. When she finally finished she invited Eric Burden to visit and convinced him the freshly painted ceiling and interior were what it originally looked like, yet she never taken any pictures before the work started and had never before in the forty years she lived there made that claim to anyone. And like New Orleans, there were dozens of local areas around the country from Maine to Texas that had there own version of the song, referring to local places, some real, and some not. Depending on town, some referred to drinking establishments, some to brothels, some to prisons and some to gambling houses. BeforeThe Animals rock version the folksinger Dave Van Ronk (who created the unique chord progression that both Dylan and the Animals used for the song), visited New Orleans to see if he could learn more about the song and was told by most of the elderly people he talked to that the song referred to the New Orleans Parish prison for woman, which had since been converted to a convent, and they said they used to refer to it as the house of the rising sun. He said he was even shown old pictures of it by some of them. Of course, whether that's true we don't know, and even it it is, doesn't prove that the song was actually referring to it.

[@ScottHarlow-y3m]

I admit that, since I was only 8 years old when The Animals' version of "House of the Rising Sun" came out, it was many years later before I found out it was a cover of an old blues standard. Thanks for the additional info.

[@b3stanga697]

You really need to check out the group Frijid Pink doing House Of The Rising Sun ☀️ This is a very heavy version!

[@mikerickson01]

So many Lead Belly songs ended up as hits for 60's and 70's groups. This, Cotton Fields and Midnight Special are just a few. If it weren't for Lead Belly, the 60's would have been musically much different. (IMO, Alan Lomax is the person who had the most impact on American music in the 20th century.) BTW, that wasn't a tambourine, it was a drum stick hitting a closed high-hat. If you want to hear some accordion, Flaco Jimenez. Also, Helen Carter of the Carter Sisters played accordion until she started to get pleats in her stomach.

My step mom used to sing and play this song on the accordion a lot back in the day. And don't get the "step mom" thing wrong either. She was great, not like an evil Disney step mom. She played the accordion really well and had a great voice too so she was always a the center of attention at parties and such. Not many people can play the accordion anyway and if it was a more mainstream instrument she'd be superstar tbh.

The Animals, from Newcastle UK this was released in 1964/5 and was a massive hit everywhere. The organist Alan Price quit the band to pursue a solo career but joined forces with fellow organist Georgie Fame to create The Price of Fame which was quite successful. Later in the 60s The Animals released We Gotta Get Out Of This Place which was adopted by the US troops fighting in Vietnam 🇬🇧

This song was originally recorded in the 1930s. I believe by Lead Belly.

[@ptournas]

[@ptournas]

@@emerald1805 I know that's one of the things that's been claimed. In the sixties and seventies I used to play folk clubs and lived about 15 minutes from the Boston Public Library which had great music resources including a big listing room and a complete archive of the Alan Lomax field recording and recording of the Child ballads. I did do some research on Risin' Sun After hearing Van Ronk perform it in a local coffeehouse, a year or two before The Animals version came out. Some of the tracings back of the song were really ludicrous if you actually listened to the songs in the path. But of course the history of the song outside of the U.S. is really irrelevant to the New Orleans version. As I mentioned, the same song was found all over America in different local versions, and we we know with certainty that they could refer to all different type of establishments where one could find trouble, since many of them referred to places that were still in existence at the time, though some referred to places made up for the song. We don't even know for sure if the first lyrics from the New Orleans version were sung from a woman's or a man's viewpoint. Clarence Ashley said he learned the song from his grandfather, who told him he learned it during the civi war, and he sings it as a man telling a story about himself. The sixteen year old girl that Alan Lomax recorded shortly after that said she learned it from her father and she sang it from a woman's point of view. And as far as the building goes, no one is never going to know for sure. Not only do you have the problem of all the new claims made after the Animal's, with even official tourist guides from the city claiming it to be different buildings in separate tourist guides, but you also have the fact, besides there being different local people recalling different building referred to colloquially by that name, there are also city records of that name being used by many estblishments going back to 1800s

In itself the song is lost in time when its true origins are. The clearest thing is that there was a brothel called Rising Sun back in the 1800s, and that there are many versions of it, the most appropriate one is that it seems to be from a woman's perspective.

One of the first bands to feature the organ as a soloist, and what a soloist! The Beatles had first appeared in America in Feb 1964. everyone else followed from Britain...they were friends of the Animals, used to hang out with them in London. The Animals were obviously more rhythm and blues oriented. The Rolling Stones visited the USA on tour but did not make it big here until Summer 1965 with I Can't Get No Satisfaction.

[@willieb3765]

Not many US bands had organs at this time and the only other top British band I can think of that had an organ was The Dave Clark Five. However up here in the NW corner of the US, every band from mid-late 50's on had an organ (and a sax) and that continued well into the Beatles era, into the 70's for some bands (Merrilee and The Turnabouts come to mind)

a group of friends and i started a rock band in '66 in jr. high school and what was the first song that we learned to play ? yup - this song. relatively easy to learn but an awesome song nonetheless.

Katzenjammer is/was an all female band from Norway that used an accordion in a lot of their songs. I think altogether the four members played about 30 different instruments. If you listen to them, listen to them live. They were better live than on record.
