🎵 Steve Winwood - Roll With It REACTION

[@popgun5247]

Lex hears and feels music more so than the average listener. She always gets it. A joy to watch.

[@rods1379]

Absolutely. I really enjoy watching someone, especially from the younger generation, appreciating good music from the past. Her reactions get me smiling.

[@johnmilner5485]

Agree. Brad is a cool dude , but he seems to have a stick in his butt that keeps him from just relaxing and enjoying good music.

[@heavenlysonshine]

@@johnmilner5485 Whoa,dude!

[@ronaldstokes4841]

@@rods1379 Lex was Rollin' with it!

[@Markrealguy51]

She is such a rush

[@slimsantilli4476]

Steve is an insanely talented man.He can play guitar like Clapton. On top of singing, and playing keys like Ray Charles.

[@jonnno243]

You got that right.Think of "Stevies Blues"

[@oldschoolfink3212]

He also plays bass as good as Geddy Lee or Jon Anderson.

[@thomassamburgh5904]

Steve is great and a good guitarist but he doesn't compare to Eric

[@thomassamburgh5904]

@@oldschoolfink3212 no,he doesn't

[@oldschoolfink3212]

@@thomassamburgh5904 he most certainly does. I've seen a video of him and Eric playing Cant Find My Way Home with Steve on Bass that is phenomenal.

[@827dusty]

Steve Winwood got him some soul since he was 17 years old old, singing for The Spencer Davis Group back in 1966. His voice is so soulful.

[@Adrian-zd4cs]

Ahhh The Spencer Davis Group 💕💕 All that music makes me miss my Mom

[@AnthonySipes]

He was singing with them when he was 14 and 15 definitely sounding like a grown man

[@ohfour-seven6228]

I feel the same way, this song is for better times. Winwood is such an incredible singer, a world treasure.

[@gswithen]

This was a comeback song for him. He started as a teenager in the 60s with The Spencer Davis Group then was in Blind Faith and Traffic. Then a very successful solo career. One of the greats.

[@kona883]

His comeback? He never left! Also if he had a comeback it was the album before this Back in the Highlife which was so superior to this album! It won 3 Grammies certified Platinum 3 times

[@lindaaugone382]

LOVE TRAFFIC❣

[@jamesbooty]

I wouldn't call this a comeback by any stretch. His album *Back in the High Life* - released in 1986 - went 3x platinum and won 3 Grammys. *Roll With It* was released just two years after that. However, he hadn't even been away that long, because the last single released from Back in the High Life was "The Finer Things." It was a top ten hit in February 1987. Further, in between those two records came a greatest hits collection titled *Chronicles* and it contained a remix of his 1982 song "Valerie" which also got into the top 10 in December 1987. "Roll With It" was the lead single from the album of the same name, and was released in May 1988, just 5 months later.... but he wasn't even away THAT long! Between the releases of *Back in the High Life* and *Roll With It* Michelob beer was running their "The night belongs to Michelob" television ads, and two of Winwood's songs were used in that campaign: "Talking Back to the Night" and "Don't You Know What the Night Can Do?" The latter was a song on *Roll With It* but the album hadn't yet been released when the commercial containing it was aired. Steve Winwood dominated adult contemporary radio throughout the second half of the 80s, and "Roll With It" was right in the middle of that success.

[@umpdaddy1]

Steve Winwood is a treasure for all humanity. A genuinely good person with an insane amount of talent. Thyanks for posting this.

[@aaronarnold7653]

Steve Winwood is extremely talented...Excellent Reaction

[@tomlemery8490]

You probably know this. Steve Winwood sang Higher Love, Back In The High Life Again, and sang with the Spencer Davis Group with Gimme Some Lovin'.

[@jollyrodgers7272]

Yeah, he co-wrote that, I'm a Man, and others - as a teen.

[@andrewkelley434]

Higher Love, Back in the High Life, Valerie (which you will probably notice was used as a sample!), While You See a Chance, The Finer Things....he has many hits! Such a talented guy

[@mightymouse293]

Y'all hitting on my teen year's love the versatility there was in music thank you so much..

[@cherisparkes4447]

I’m with Lex… for me it’s impossible to not ‘chair dance’/ feel giddy while listening to this “oh so damn catchy!” Steve Winwood song! He’s got a unique sound to his voice, always recognizable immediately and music that just makes you happy❣😉👍👍❣

[@cherisparkes4447]

Here’s a brief list of some Steve Winwood hit songs, that I think you’d really enjoy.. (Notably, Steve has long been a well rounded, highly sought after musician.. and while some of the songs recommended below are his solo pieces, others are from the days when he was part of groups like Blind Faith such as “Can’t Find my way Home” Another big hit and very catchy fave of mine that Lex would probably love, that he sang when in the Spencer Davis group was “Gimme Some Lovin” (plus the hard hitting, “I’m a man) now for some of his solo hits check out: “Back in the High Life again” “Higher Love” “Valerie” to name just a few. This man has an amazing catalogue of music, well worth a deep dive into!❣😁👍❣

[@terranceevans521]

The feeling you are describing is "Soul". This is straight out of Memphis in 1968. Steve was always soulful. Check him out with the Spencer Davis Group (he was only 17).

[@DSquareMusicBucketlist]

Steve Winwood is The Man!! I’ve been a fan since the late 1960’s. He IS the man!!

[@robertpope2591]

When life is too much, roll with it, baby! Good advice ! Great reaction to a great song and singer!

[@brendamilloy2557]

Steve Winwood is a world treasure. So much talent and genius. Is there any instrument he can't play? Maybe the bagpipes, but I wouldn't put it past him. Glad you had fun with this tune!

[@cathylee4234]

I'ts true . People worked just to get by and enjoyed life . We all had smaller homes and old cars . No cell phones no internet ,No cable television until the 80s to pay for .We use to say let it roll off you like a ducks back . And the fact that we had parents that went through world war 2 and the great depression made them have a thankfulness for the things they had and they instilled this in us .

[@martinjohnson9316]

Well said. Less is often more.

[@ed.z.]

Luxury was curling up with a good book.

[@harpergras]

Thanks for the reaction...This is my favorite song by Steve...And this video for this song is classic...Steve has some serious soul...This was always the first song I would play at my cook-outs back in the day...All of my guest would start dancing all over my house.

[@StefLuvsFoo]

My father took me to this concert back then. We danced and danced and danced. Just me and my daddy. ❤

[@mickeyd6444]

What a great tune. I had this album on repeat for about a year when it first came out. We need to get more of those tunes into the livestreams, Lex really dug it!

[@ChrisTian-rm7zm]

Awesome song! I love the whole album, it brings back so many memories of the 80ies. Happy new year to you all!

[@thomassamburgh5904]

Stevie is an icon, Spencer Davis Group, Traffic,Blind Faith and solo. You guys nailed the reaction. Great perspective.

[@hugoortega4548]

Great song!! It’s soulful and funky. Lex you felt it. Steve Winwood is such a fabulous talent. What a voice.

[@jollyrodgers7272]

One of Steve's best - Blue Eyed Soul to the max. It comes from the expression "Roll with the punches" - or waves, or whatever life dishes out. Take it in stride. Go with the flow. Keep a smile on your face, a song in your heart, and a spring in your step. Glad you hit this official video - it was back when MTV was king.

[@4yules]

winwood...GENIUS

[@glennburch1081]

Have seen SW twice now live, waiting on the 3rd opportunity. His live music sounds exactly like the recorded stuff. He has a lot of nostalgic hits that can really get the crowd rocking. Great reaction guys, TY.

[@francesthompson593]

Steve is a Musical Genius, s force of nature!

[@monticella]

A little Winwood for the soul.

[@brianforgie7724]

Steve Winwood is probably the most talented rock musician too come out of the 60's. Great singer,piano player, guitar player,front man any thing he touchs is gold. Best Steve Winwood tune was John Barleycorn Must Die with the band Traffic. His acoustic version is fire.

[@custardflan]

Love Steve Winwood. One of the great bluesmen ever. A Hammond B3 Maestro.

[@jonnno243]

Stevie/Steve Winwood was/is a huge fan of Ray Charles , as you may hear here. So was / am I, too.

[@stevedennis4197]

You nailed it my friend, no internet. It was much mellower, but that said I would not be able to watch young people like yourselves groove to older music.

[@youtmeme]

love this song...always have!!!😊 Steve, one of those English rock guys who basically brought back to America its blues roots!!!🙂👍✌

[@knight4iam]

Steve Winwood released an excellent song called VALERIE in very early 80s, which hit the top 100 but the strong keyboard sound was fairly new, so it was kinda forgotten. Fast forward to late 80s and he re-recorded VALERIE and released again, this time with a stronger keyboard sound. It was an even bigger hit. Both versions are worth a reaction. Beautiful song.

[@1bigrowdy]

One of the most prolific singer songwriter musicians in the business .writing and performing hit songs at 16/17 years old..

[@daddyguerrero]

This hearkens back to his day with the Spencer Davis Group.

[@richdiana3663]

My favorite of his is " Back in the High Life Again" and the video is sweet.

[@scottwitt4104]

Should listen to him as 15 or 16 old with Spencer Davis Group. Keep on Running my fav

[@ed.z.]

I was obsessed with Steve in the seventies and saw his group Traffic several times. It was a blast. So great!

[@FUBAR1986]

Once again, Lex proves that she’s an old soul listens to music the way we used to back in the day….. the lyrics were not the most important thing how it made you feel did it touch your soul that’s what always count.. And in the meantime, your child gets to feel all of this wonderful music from the past I’m sure it’s going to be a feel the music lover…..

[@dennis2966]

If I'm having a down and gloomy day, all I have to do is get me a dose of Lex and I start feeling better. She always puts a smile on my face, and usually a chuckle or two.

[@scapito]

💙 Live poll voters, you're on point for more Steve Winwood.

[@John-fv8sc]

I just love Lex she has a unique way of explaining the music but she gets it she feels the music it's great

[@kellyhilton2330]

Ok, I have watched this video to many times 😂😂 I love this song and I love watching Lex get into it.makes me smile every time.thanks♥️🤗 all love 💕

[@3DJapan]

2:55 There's a word for this in Japanese, shoganai, meaning "it can't be helped". Whenever there's some problem and you can't do anything about it they just say "shoganai" and move on with life.

[@richard_n]

This song is about as perfect as it gets

God give you good health, Mr Steve, forever, for i worry a bit on your recent videos that age is taking its toll on such a talent

[@LetItBeSummer-1]

How can you not move to this song? Brad? Brad? 😆. Love the jazz/blues next to Steve’s voice!

[@stephenhanson3647]

For Brad, he is practically jumping off the couch. A whole 2 inches of sway there.

[@sarahtonen4873]

Lol, he might be from Toronto. When I used to see music live, bands would stop and ask the crowd if they were having fun bc no one was dancing and everyone would scream and shout YES!!!! But still no one would be dancing! Lol

[@danevans5823]

You really nailed it; no Internet and simple relief from everyday problems.Dance,sing,laugh and hug.No damn computer to slog your mind into trash

[@courtnayzeitler8564]

[@allendixon7700]

It's kinda like somebody gives you a bag of weed and a thing of papers since it's raw with it

[@allendixon7700]

Hello with it baby

[@Cuprum-ws5lo]

Does anyone else think the way this scene plays out is like in a time travel movie? The way it shows what people are doing and such. It’s like to give you a sense of a full picture that will be revealed over the course of the movie to have been affected in this way and that by one or more time travelers taking part in the scene.

[@trebleboost7]

One of my favorites. The organ tones are fantastic. Check out ‘Vacant Chair’ too.

[@timmiszkowski9222]

Lex I love your natural bubbly reaction to this

[@jennyjenny4501]

Great song! Happy new year!

[@andrewcrowe2170]

Lex nails it as usual! This was our traveling music back in the day. Steve made long car ride fly by

[@typorter-pp6lh]

Lex you are so right about the lack of “grind culture” 30 or 40 years ago. I was raised in the 1980s by a janitor and a nurse, and so I had absolutely no expectation or even possibility of ever being rich. The idea just never entered my mind. This notion today of anybody can just HUSTLE HUSTLE HUSTLE and be wealthy by 25, true or not, just wasn’t around back then. As a result I think people were much more content to enjoy simpler things. Now everybody thinks IG is real life (it’s not) and everybody is in a race to get rich so they don’t have to work.

[@johntremmel3949]

That was the best track of December, great vibe❤

[@tinaboksa3642]

I loved your reaction. Life was much simpler before computer and cell phones. Then we wouldn't be able to watch you without all the gizmos and gadgets, which would be a bad thing.

Spencer Davis had Steve join “The Group” as a teen in the 60’s. Serious talent there. Blind Faith with Clapton….. This 80’s Classic album is loaded with goodie’s. 🤘😎

[@tayclarets]

One of my all time favorites. I wondered if you huys would ever play it.

[@robertnieten7259]

Steves voice reminds me of John Lennons singing voice. They both have so much power in their voices that its like they were fighting to keep control of it. Anybody know what i mean ? It's like whispering, but shouting at the same time.
