[@randiwatches]

Man, I just wanna be your friend so bad. I want people like you around me. Positive energy, a love and appreciation for music, an open mind and a desire to learn and consume music you never heard before... We would have a blast at karaoke. I groove with you on videos of songs I love. I get so excited to see the way certain parts of songs affect you because I feel like we both feel music on a deep physical level. Bless you 💜

[@jamelakajamal]

Ran Kaye I Appreciate You 🙏🏾

[@romonabrown7330]

The songwriter, Hoyt Axton, I believe, was trying to say I haven't done a lot, I'm no great world traveler, but what I have done has showed me enough to appreciate my life and all the people in the world too. Just my take.

[@SEANMCAD]

I have been around and I am an okie now and I can say Oklahoma is good enough

[@hippysuetotherescue9827]

Great take 🇨🇦👍✌🌲

[@SkiGolfer]

In the final verse, Hoyt Axton observes that while he has "never been to heaven", he has "been to Oklahoma", where he was told he was born, thus implying a kinship between the two places.

[@PhoenixRisen63]

Perfect.

[@jhnstn1]

Hoyt Axton has a wonderful body of music. A YT rabbit hole worth exploring.

[@timdwight7958]

Cory Wells singing lead on this song is one of the most underrated lead singers in rock and roll music. Such a sweet tone just dripping with soul. Thank you for posting these clips -share the love!!

[@1neruby]

Couldn't agree with you more.

[@azstarbar]

Cory is my all time favorite male vocalist!!!!

[@bbmtge]

Cory Wells is not and was not underrated. Unfortunately people like you seem to thrive on absurdity. 3DN one of the most popular bands of that era as well as Wells, Hutton and Negron themselves. Grow up.

I am 60 yrs old, have been a fan since I was a teenager, I finally saw them live last night. Great show, not all original members, but the songs have stood the test of time.

The reason I love this channel is because he appreciates the music WE love, and is open to us gifting it to him. His physical reactions make me feel like I'm hearing it again for the first time.

[@terrirobertson7821]

Cory Wells has such a great voice...Especially on this song. Very underrated singer.

[@JimTrageserSD]

Three Dog Night is a sadly forgotten band - glad to see them being kept alive. Grew up listening to their amazing harmonies.

[@sealdrup]

So many good songs by this group: Shambala, One, Liar, Joy to the World.....etc. One of my favorite groups.

[@happyhaze1526]

Nice cover of Brickyard Blues too.

Nice cover of never dreamed youd leave in summer too

most of their hits were written by Hoyt Axton as well. an amazing songwriter as well as musician himself.

[@ty7504]

Very true, dear Sealdup ... so many timeless and meaningful songs by this particular man-group of those 1970s.

[@RenR70]

“Black & White”/“An Old Fashion Love Song”/“One”/“Out in the Country.”

[@expresscp]

"Black & White" is a must to listen to. It was inspired by the court case "Brown vs Education" the desegregation of schools in America. It was a #1 song from 1972.

[@bellasmom2597]

My favorite 3 dog night song. Had no idea was about brown vs court case. Nice to know.thanks

[@duncandevolld492]

[@donaldpruitt6787]

David Levin you are sooo right Hoyt was a great song writer his many songs they recorded and had hits with , he wrote this song , joy to the world , shambala , I think mama told me not to come as well their first big hit was written by Harry billion , Laura Nyro wrote easy to be hard. They. Had great choices to choose from !!! Great live shows as well at one time their shows grossed more money than any touring act in music surpassing Zepplin at the time .... I love watching Jamal loving these group and artist like TDN. And steely Dan and the rest of them Great music artist blossomed in the early seventies through the 80’s

[@jasonbabila6006]

Now that's a classic I haven't heard in a long time.

"Black & White" is a nice tune by them. Nice lyrics. "Celebrate" is also a good one.

[@mlsr36]

I forgot about 'Celebrate'

[@christinehaworth7446]

Black and White!!

[@troyowens9734]

Celebrate, Joy to the World, Mama told me not to come

[@TwistedSither]

Never Been to Spain was written by country music legend Hoyt Axton. Hoyt was a bit of a character with a wry sense of humor which worked its way into his music. One of my favorite songs of his is A Cat Named Kalamazoo. He also wrote the shortest song in the world, which was titled, appropriately enough, This is the Shortest Song in the World. That was also the full lyric sheet for the song. Hoyt also wrote You Can't Do the Disco With a Girl From San Francisco When All You've Ever Danced To is the San Antonio Rose. If you can find any of his material, I urge you to look it up.

[@nettiemac]

Ronald Elkins I loved the episode of WKRP that he was in.... “you got the knife, I got the gun, cmon boy we gonna have a little fun” to Johnny Fever. 😂

[@randybennett8771]

And, he was in Gremlins

[@brianmorton4270]

The song is actually "Della and the Dealer".

[@chrisknight7921]

He was also in a tv show with the two truckers who travelled around solving murders in the seventies. I think the show was called convoy?

[@chrisknight7921]

Just looked it up The show was called Movin On.

[@latortugapicante719]

It’s kinda like celebrating the mentality of laid back and carefree. “Hey the Beatles are from there I can dig that place”

[@deb5710]

This song was written by Hoyt Axton, who was from Oklahoma. He also wrote, "Heartbreak Hotel" for Elvis, and yet another hit for Three Dog Night, called "Joy to the World". Hoyt Axton was a real character, he used to say as a joke, "Oklahoma is the Cultural Center of the Universe". When I believe he really loved his home state of Oklahoma and the people living there.

[@susanmaggiora4800]

The great Hoyt Axton!

[@deborahcornell171]

"ONE" was their 1st big hit in 1969, very famous. I want to see if you'd get that "aHA!" look of recognition on your face. Thanks for doing more Three Dog Night. Beloved band & you're discovering why.💙

[@edb6690]

Written by the great songwriter, Hoyt Axton. He also wrote Joy to the World.

Take a listen to 'Out in the Country'. It has a super mellow groove. This is my favorite song by Three Dog and I like the vast majority of their catalog.

React to "One" by Three Dog Night. Seems like the last one you haven't done from them- as well as my fav TDN song.

[@kev7161]

Ha-ha - - He would love "One" and its message I think. But he hasn't touched "Celebrate", "Black and White", "Liar", and a couple others yet - - at least not that I've seen.

Fun fact: The guy who wrote this song played the father in the movie Gremlins back in the 80's.

[@bellasmom2597]

When a song reaches out and touches you so you know the feeling, that shows they have not only expressed themselves but they did so in a way that people can reiceve and identify with them.

[@msitarland]

Growing up a kid in the 70's was awesome. I now realize that I took all this fabulous music for granted. Like it would never end. My little grade school friends and I would get together every Friday night in someone's basement, complete with green or orange shag carpet, paneled walls, iconic 70's yellow bubble glass mirrors, and a hanging oil bead fountain. All decked out in our hip hugger bell bottom jeans, fringe beaded belts and vests, we'd turn out the lights and put the lava lamps we brought to bubbling on the shelf. It was all the light we'd allow. Then we'd crank up LOUD Three Dog Night, Styx, ELO, Steve Miller Band, you name it. We'd dance and scream and laugh and practice making out on a psychedelic rainbow pillow with a smiley face in the center and laugh that it was our boyfriend. We'd shoot pool, play table tennis or air hockey, and drown ourselves in our records until the folks hollered down it was time to go to bed...which was never earlier than 1 or 2am. (70's parents were so cool.) Then we'd sit up and tell scary stories with flashlights under our chins until the sun came up. No video games were ever necessary. All we ever needed was friends and just good music.

[@charlesharred9643]

My God I'm so glad this was my era of music the list goes on and on and on. Thank you brother for the memories at least I'm young for a few moments again. Please do ONE by three dog night.

Me too I graduated in 1975 our music was the greatest and the most awesome era ever

[@timothybessemer7316]

The writer of the song was from Oklahoma. I met him briefly as his mother and my father had been friends in the past. Hoyt Axton was a gentleman and true artist. He wrote other songs (Joy to the World, etc). What is he trying to say in this song? Matter of interpretation? appreciation of other places and a longing to see those places? Hard to know without Hoyt saying so himself. What can be said is the way that Three Don Night did this song was tremendous. They were such a great group and i thank them for doing this song.

[@johnschofield9496]

Got a chance to meet them in Longwood Fl. in 1981. Corey tossed a drumstick out into the crowd. I caught it ! Went out back after the show, waited about an hour. They came out and I had a personal meet 'n' greet with the entire band. Also Corey signed the drum stick for me ! They were an incredible, very underrated band, still one of the best.

[@raymondvaniel8770]

TDN was such a sight band. Having life performances are so much fun to see them at their best.

[@kathys6402]

This is actually my favorite by them, especially the "Never Been To Heaven" part when they do it the 2nd time, like you said bring on the church. Thanks sweetie... stay safe & stay strong 💜💜

[@DebbieW1965]

Thank you for doing a reaction to this song, I knew you'd like it. I was in a family band with my Dad, 2 sons, husband, and 2 sisters. My name is actually Debbie Wilkins, Rex is my oldest son. We did a cover of this song, and rocked it up a bit, but kept the blues vibe. We would always have lots of requests for this song! I played bass guitar and did harmony vocals, my Dad played rythem/lead guitar and vocalsmy oldest son played lead/rythem guitar, my second oldest son plays drums, my two sisters sang lead vocals and harmony, my husband also sang lead vocals and harmony. We were kinda like the Partrage Family, but we played everything from Metallica to Patsy Cline! Dad always said variety was the key to being a good cover band. I started playing bass guitar with Dad at 16 years old in 1981 as soon as I could get in bars in a band. We lost Dad in March of 2014, it's very hard to carry on without him. I made so many awesome and treasured memories with my Dad over the years that I will treasure until I'm reunited with him and my Momma! 🙏🙏🙏

[@mejsjalv]

I've never really been to the US, just as a short layovers catching a flight. But I sure love tons of American music, from all eras. So much so I ended up learning some of it. And yes, Spanish speakers always come whenever you are reacting to their artists, just to see how you like it despite not being able to understand all the lyrics, much like it happens with them with music in English.

[@aliciasaracino1233]

You have good taste my friend.

[@TheRozberry]

I agree with you Jamel cause I'm an African American Woman and my musical taste runs far and wide as well. Even if you can't travel around the country or abroad physically, you can do it through music and movies. I had a friend who was a librarian once tell me that she use to tell her students that "the world is more than the four corners where you live".

[@UnoHoo1]

You have a gift. I hope you understand that. You never, ever fail to bring a smile to my face. There is just, obviously “good” in you, and it shines through in a way that is special and makes everyone want to be your friend! 😊 I never thought I would be so into a channel like this.

Hello, You asked what he is singing about and asked to leave a comment. The sing was written by Hoyt Axton who was from Oklahoma. Growing up there, I am sure he listened to the Beatles and learned about different cultures all over the world. I think he had a burning desire to travel and experience these things.I think the song is about his desire to get the heck out of the bible belt.

[@RicoBurghFan]

They had at least 20 top 40 singles in the 70s and they were all unique with different singers and writers and they all sounded great. Truly a special band.

Two of those are from the immortal "Graceland" album, which did the world the huge favour of introducing it to South African township music and musicians.

Three Dog Night was always just an awesome band to see live in concert. They were the first concert I ever went to at Georgetown Univ. In 1971 since my older sister was a student there ans was able to scarf up third row seats for us. From 1969 to 1971. TDN had the most number of top 10 songs, put more fannies in concert seats and sold more singles and albums combined than any other band of the era and had the smoothest three part harmony of any band. They absolutely ruled light rock.

Jamal ; you have embarked on a journey that it is a shame more people don't do, it has taken us out here watching you a lifetime to amass what you are learning in a short time, I love the fact that you appreciate what we are sending you, your life in general will be more fulfilled than a lot of people of your generation. We learned our life lessons through this music and zi can see the effect it has on you as you listen...take all those "lessons these artists have passed to us over the years to heart, it will make you a better man and pass them on to anyone who will listen. These songs come from people as you say "can make you feel something. It was in my opinion an era that will never happen again. I am proud to have lived it and know it has changed my life for the better, seems like younger people just don't want to "get it these days" hats off to you for understanding that it's not just words or music..some of it is just for fun of course but we who spent our lifetime immersed in it have come out much richer for the journey, keep listening man, there is so much more to hear and learn......nice job bro, if I met you, I'd wanna shake your hand for being so "open minded" and I just see you having fun too. It's great to see, keep it up. Think back about the "hip hop guy" and revel in what you know now that you were missing then! Kudos brother!
