The 'Mike' is Mike Rutherford. Lead guitarist and founding member of Genesis ❤🇬🇧

[@brianjohnston4117]

My all time favourite band . Genesis . ❤

[@KenCyrus-tb3nh]

And the lead singer is Paul Carrack from the band Squeeze, and The Bleeding Heart Band which often worked with Roger Waters of Pink Floyd during his solo career.

[@peterphiles]

As a fan, I recommend listening to anything by Genesis, Mike and the Mechanics, Peter Gabriel... very good music.

[@MauroJourney]

The singer is Paul Carrack. Mike Rutherford (Genesis) is the man with long hair and a beard who, in the video, walks hand in hand with his young son. Mike Rutherford co-wrote the lyrics with Brian Alexander Robertson. The song won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically in 1989, and was nominated for four Grammy Awards in 1990, including Record and Song of the Year, as well as Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals and Best Videos. In 1996, famed composer Burt Bacharach said that the song was one of the greatest lyrics of the past decade. "Silent Running" and "All I Need Is a Miracle", from the 1985 self-titled debut album, were also quite successful, although I really like "You Are the One". From the 1988 album "Living Years", in addition to this song, I would also recommend "Nobody's Perfect", "Beautiful Day" and "Why Me?", although one of my favorites from a musical/instrumental point of view is "Don't".

[@danielkinn782]

I didn't speak to my father for 5 years prior to his death. We had a falling out. Then one day, i called him. He was very sick and was dying. We talked for about 10 minutes. Said our good byes. I called him 2 weeks later and said everyrhing i needed to. Told him nothing matters and that i loved him. He died 3 days later. All thise years i wasted being angry. Id give anything to have 5 minutes with him again. Buckaroo

[@BlairDeurucki]

You said everything that matters to him when it mattered! He died knowing you loved him! So sorry for your loss!!

Same - my fault. Luckily I wised up before he went. He was my hero, still is.

Almost the exact same story here, except it was 10 years. I still kick myself over it 6 years later. I can't believe how stubborn I can be.😢

[@robertsanssouci2093]

I lost my brother November 27th 2023 I lost my father June 23 2024 My mother has dementia and doesn’t recognize me sometimes. Other times she’s asking where my brother and her husband are…. Saturday Sept 14th my 14 year old chihuahua passed away This song makes me grateful there was no riff in our relationships. I can’t imagine adding guilt on top of my grief

[@GaryMorris-p2q]

I lost my father June 22 2024

[@John_Locke_108]

That's how my 90 year old grandmother is. She doesn't recognize my mother most days. I know I'm gonna regret it but I don't have the heart to see her like that. I want to remember her how she was a year ago. Not how she is now.

[@SiAnon]

When this song came out i didn't really get it. Well i did but not to the extent i do now. Spent the last 19 years wishing i'd said things i never got to say. Trust me, say what you need to say because forever not being able to is a long time.

[@Xtro-1098]

Ooft. This song wrecks me, man. Every time.

[@richd66-p4o]

Once again a wonderful reaction! This song came out 3 years after I lost my father. I had no regrets but it made me very nostalgic and touched me. Thank you for this song. I still get emotional almost every time I hear this. I have loved all of your reactions and always look forward to the next. 🥰

[@fredinaz]

This song/message has gotten even more relevant today with all the divisiveness in politics and social media. Great reaction, again!

[@brandonwilliams957]

I was fortunate to work with my Dad. We butted heads at times but it was with love. I was with him and my Mom at the hospital when he passed and had to tell the doctors and nurses at the hospital to stop trying to resuscitate him. It was the toughest thing I’ve ever done. Carpe Diem.

[@ashotvoskan]

Are you going to review Peter Gabriel's "Secret World" live performance?

[@chickenlampbrent]

Oh God, I've been waiting for her to discover that. I can't wait!

[@juanjohernandez1921]

Before this amazing job of Mike Rutherford and his project called Mike & The Mechanics, just we need to remember that Mike is a main member of Genesis with Tony Banks and Phil Collins; by the way, I suggest you Taken In, Silent Running, All I need is a miracle, and Par Avion, these tracks are included in his first album, enjoy them and I hope listen your reactions about them, regards Stacey, you look beautiful always!!

[@benmason9755]

Over My Shoulder is another really beautiful, catchy and memorable song from these guys.

[@Shang1966]

I'm 58 now and I cannot listen to this song without shedding a few tears. My dad and I were very close but he grew very ill quickly 10 years ago. He battled for a while and I thought he was doing better. But, my mom called me 6:30 one morning and found him dead outside from a self inflicted gun shot to his heart. He couldn't handle the pain; knowing he was not going to get better; and never wanted to burden anyone to care for him. I never got to say goodbye to him and man does it hurt. If there's anyone reading this and holding a grudge with your parent; sibling or close friend, get over it and make up. Love your show Stacey!

[@MauroJourney]

Until two months ago, for me, this was "just" a beautiful song with beautiful lyrics and carefully arranged music; I bought the album on vinyl as soon as it came out, and a few years later, in 1996, I also bought it on CD in Manhattan, New York, in that five-story store that I don't think exists anymore.. Since last July, when my mother passed away, the song has taken on another meaning. Inside me, in addition to the natural melancholy, there remains a slight sense of guilt because to convince her to be admitted to hospital I had assured her that I would not let her die in a hospital bed but, with a clear head and reasoning rationally, when her kidneys and heart "gave up", if she had been at home without treatment and "pain therapies" she would have suffered much more. The day they started with sedation, forced hydration and morphine, she was still mentally clear and, when she saw and heard me, she held my hand and said: "Mom's love, you are here" and I replied: "Of corse Mom, I'm here and I will not let you go away", even though she was aware of what was happening. Her last words and her look remain a comfort to me but, more than anything, what can really put my conscience and soul at peace is having shown her and made her feel my affection and my love throughout her life, even if there were discussions and some arguments, as I think is normal in any family and in any parent/child relationship. You gave me life, the most precious gift, and unconditional love: "I love you mommy!" ❤❤❤❤

[@Richard-jh7nt]

In my opinion, this particular message is loaded more towards reconciliation and saying things like I love you after previously not doing much if any of that, to your loved ones, particularly those who are old or seriously ill. Mike Rutherford in the video, (with one of his sons) and after whom the band is named attended an expensive school and his father was an officer in the Royal Navy . I believe he was rather disappointed in his sons taking up music as a career. Perhaps his father died before he'd reached peak success with both Genesis AND Mike and the Mechanics. I DON'T think this song is so much about selfishly saying what you like to your parents, it's more about prioritising seeking reconciliation, calmness and affirming loving relationships. If that means addressing negative issues, so be it, but only if it helps build the road to ultimate reconciliation and healing.

[@sanandaallsgood673]

This song has always been a very touching, and loving song that speaks so much truth! It's one that everyone should hear and take in for some self-examination, IMHO.

[@chitownlee]

I never listened to this without my eye's filling with tear's...

Thought you might blub at that one Stacey but you toughed it out,unlike me when ever I hear this.

“I think I caught his spirit, later that same year/I’m sure I heard his echoes in my baby’s newborn tears.” is amazing.

[@kevincaulder20]

Hey, Stacey. Next up from Mike + the Mechanics is SILENT RUNNING. The video has a message for you. How about some R&B and doul on the channel? Suggestions are, REMEMBER WHAT I TOLD YOU TO FORGET by Tavares. GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT by the O'Jays. NEITHER ONE OF US by Gladys Knight and the Pips. SHOW AND TELL by Al Wilson. DANCE WITH WITH ME by Peter Brown. And finally, PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH by Barry White. Just a little chocolate candy to get you started. You are my new favorite reaction channel. Keep going and enjoy the music.

[@sanzoftatooine]

Gotta be some Barry White on this channel SOON

[@joehodgett3376]

I highly recommend Silent Running it's another thought provoking Mike + The Mechanics song

[@jangoliocloney3441]

These lyrics have always cut way too deep for me. Even decades before my dad passed it made me sad, knowing that I was probably never going to be able patch things up with him, though I tried much later (to no avail). And of course, this song dropped at a time when I needed a father the most (the divorce happened a few years prior). Life is something else...

[@MRCINI100]

Love this song, always reminds me of my dad. God rest his soul.

[@havok6280]

The theme is a little more complex than carpe diem. It's about generational conflict. It's about reconciling with your parents and the past as well as with your children and the future.

[@RICKYBO66]

Mike Rutherford is the guitarist with the beard who was in 'Genesis'. Paul Carrack is the singer who was in 'Roxy Music' & 'Squeeze'

[@TheCornishCockney]

Eh? He was in neither of those bands. He started out with Ace ( How Long)

[@DanMcClinton]

@@TheCornishCockneyhe was in Squeeze, he sang the song Tempted with them.

[@SaintPhoenixx]

Always liked the contrast of the young choir at the beginning and elderly choir coming in later to emphasise the point of time passing. Also the guy at 6:00 with the kid is Mike (Rutherford). The vocalist is Paul Carrack, in case you weren't aware. It's Mike's band but he isn't the guy singing, he's a guitarrist.

[@FredtheFrisian]

You took the words out of my mouth,

[@robquince3076]

My father was not nice to me and my only regret is I left it to late to talk to him I didn't go to his funeral which I have no regrets but for me I live the rest of my life wishing I had aired my grievances so before it's to late I'd say do it for you

[@general-cromwell6639]

Doesn't matter how many times I hear this, it always resonates deeply and brings a tear or 100 to my eyes. All the best to you and yours. Cheers.

[@Able-Man]

I can remember Mike and the Mechanics, from "40-ish" years ago... I guess I probably haven't heard this song, since sometime in the "late 1980's"!

Stacey, I suggest you check out Josh Groban, specifically a song called "Remember When It Rained." He is one of the greatest male vocalists I've ever heard, and I think you would really enjoy him!

[@seumasmackinlay]

Another anthemic song from the 80s you should have a listen to is John Farnham’s “You’re the Voice”. It's message is simple, and I think you’ll appreciate it..

[@DaveElliott-jl3yk]

Hi, for info Mike is Mike Rutherford, the lead guitarist from the band Genesis. He is playing the guitar on this track. This was his solo project away from Genesis. He had more than one singer in this project.

Song prevents me from breathing or swallowing every single time. Involuntary reaction followed by deep thoughts. Bless You and good health to all on board.

[@EchoesDaBear]

Great reaction Stacey! If there is any 'estrangement' within a family, especially with parents, this one hits deep! It's really a call to say time is too short to let allow a wedge to drive us apart...because some day, it will be too late to make amends. There is nothing more expensive than regret. Wish my eldest sister would realize that...she's ostracized herself from the family. Wasn't at my wedding, didn't attend my grandmother or mother's funerals, doesn't know her nephews or nieces. It's sad really. So for me, this song hits hard...and did for my mom & dad too.

[@news2mewallace]

ANOTHER great song choice to react to Stacey. You are circling around the GENESIS music world, so hope they are next...Phil Collins, Mike Rutherfors, and eventually the Peter Gabriel years...

[@wesklong7719]

Paul Carrack from The Squeeze...just sayin'

[@CharlesPhillips-no3sz]

This song means different things to different people. I lived my ENTIRE life from 13 years on totally at odds with an estranged father,,,,who completely emotionally abandoned his 7 biological children, while continuing to pretend to care with inane weekly visits....and pointless empty holiday get togethers. He never took responsibility for totally F-ing up EVERY one of our lives to one degree or another. My "Living Years" regret has never been about reconciliation, rather voicing my disdain and anger that he would cow tow to some hore (spelling, I know) woman over his 7 children. My Dad passed away in 2017.......and I am pissed that I didn't get the chance to tell him how much I hated (and still do) him for doing that to our family. 100% Truth.

[@gerrydantone6834]

Wonderful reaction. As others mentioned, the writer is Mike Rutherford, the guitarist. The sing is Paul Carrack, a wonderful singer and keyboardist. You would enjoy "Tempted " by Squeeze where he is the lead singer.

[@chrisb9238]

Paul Carrack (lead singer in Mike + The Mechanics) was invited to sing "Hey You" with Pink Floyd in the 1990 live show in Berlin. You should check that out since you're a big Pink Floyd fan.

[@gavinparry5426]

Saw them live in Manchester UK around 1995? They were supported by 'The Swans' (Bell & Wade ) who were also superb! Fantastic concert all round. Will never forget both bands.

[@MrJambug]

Genesis were/are a remarkable band. Their 5 key members not only steered genesis through a remarkably successful career, but all had success as solo Artists. The first to jump ship was lead vocalist, songwriter and flower, Peter Gabriel, he of Sledgehammer fame. Then Lead Guitarist Steve Hackett. He remained successful but only really as a Prog Rock album artist. Going to see him in November. You know Phil Collins, drummer and lead vocalist ran two parallel careers, both enormously successful. Mike Rutherford, Bass, Lead, Rhythm, of Mike And The Mechanics, ran two parallel careers having some big hits as MATM, the Living years of which is the biggest. He co wrote Living Years and Follow You follow Me, a Genesis song you may like to take a listen to. Seeing them twice next year. Finally Tony Banks, Keyboardist extraordinaire, who's solo career never really took off like the others. Oddly enough it is his writes/cowrites, I like best in Genesis. That Stacey, is where Mr 'Mike' Rutherford has been hanging around these last 55 odd years. Another thing, if you do a 'first time' on Follow You Follow Me, listen closely to the rhythm guitar and compare to the living years. Very very similar and impossible not to conclude they were written by the same guy. You will love it.

[@MDElam]

Interestingly, Mike Rutherford, though he played some guitar in early Genesis, was primarily a bassist, and a darn good one too. This is a beautiful song, and there are a few other M+M songs worth checking out, most notably "Silent Running" and "All I Need Is a Miracle." Still, it may be worthwhile checking out his "home" group, Genesis. There is a ton of Genesis stuff worth checking out, but I'll plug "Firth of Fifth," a song that showcases Mike on bass, and features what is considered one of the great progressive rock guitar solos (Steve Hackett is right up there with David Gilmour); in fact, the song shows off the skill of each of Genesis' members (Phil Collins on drums and Tony Banks on keys).

[@dougm659]

It’s a double edged sword really loving a parent, it’s incredibly painful when they die but you had their love all your life. My dad just died aged 93 and the man was incapable of love so his funeral on Tuesday will just be a procedure for tying up loose ends….I shall not mourn or miss him, in emotional terms, I get off lightly.

[@John_Locke_108]

This song absolutely destroys me. So glad my father is still alive but I know he won't always be.

[@joehodgett3376]

I'm a child of divorce, born in Illinois in the mid 70's and was always close with my dad until 1987 when I moved to south Florida. our weekly father son time was cut to school holidays. then this song came out in my early high school days and made such an impact . there were things missed "like my graduation" and a change in point of view of people " we came from a small rural farm community to the cultural melting pot of Broward County. my dad was a man of few words throughout his life, and before he passed in 2016 there were still conversations we needed to, but hadn't had. the regrets I have had diminished. but this song stirrs up thoughts of what should have been. but also brings forward the fond memories I have with him.

[@anthonyguadagnino2681]

Great reaction. I think the bigger message is that we might not always see eye to eye with loved ones but to not let it ruin the relationship and to just wait and it may have a new perspective on a different day and we’ll all be ok if we just try to see a different perspective

[@bertpunkaficionado8357]

Mike (Rutherford) is the bearded man you see with his actual son. He’s also playing bass in the video, but he also plays guitar and keyboards, and sings background. He’s a founding member of Genesis as well. This song gets to me every time I listen. It chokes me up if I think about the song. Regret is a powerful thing.

[@fcocartin]

Well, you got me now! "The Living Years" by Mike + The Mechanics is a song that always brings tears to my eyes. It reminds me of my incredible father, who has been my rock through the good and bad times. His unwavering support and love have shaped me into who I am today. Every time I hear this song, it serves as a powerful reminder to cherish every moment with him and to be the best son I can be, just as he has been the best father to me, although nobody is perfect. This song is a beautiful tribute to the importance of expressing our love and gratitude while we still have the chance. Say "I love you" today, because maybe tomorrow can be too late! Thank you, Stacey, again!!!

[@976PAIN]

Thanks for the reaction to this song! To this day, I continue to learn from my dad gone 30 years now. We had it pretty good while he was here, and now I continue to draw on his wisdom and possibly impart it to others. Mike Rutherford, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Tony Banks and Steve Hackett all have had fine solo careers during and post Genesis. I do recommend Genesis from the Genesis of Genesis as a fascinating study of the evolution of one of the highly adventurous progressive bands to come out of the UK in the early 70s.

[@tonysmith6940]

1st of all, 100,000 subscribers! Congratulations! OK, this song is a little outdated. He addresses it from the Father to Son relationship which was stressed more in the past when the Father was passing the farm to his son and maybe that's not the way to go with newer, more modern white collar career options available. The only thing the past and the present agree on is that college is a rip-off. 😂

[@bostonwhofan]

The video is brilliant as first you see the children's choir followed later in the song by the adult choir. Those children are now the adults.....and many in the adult choir are probably gone now. Basically, it's the circle of life. Don't hold grudges.....it's not worth it.
