"Moondance, "And it Stoned Me," "Caravan," as well as "into the Mystic." All from the Moondance LP. I still listen to it after all these years. Van was one of the greats!

[@janflewelling6277]

You could drop the needle randomly on the Moondance album and get a hit. As close to a perfect album as I can think of. Not a bad cut in the bunch. Favorite - Into the Mystic. Love the sax "foghorns".

[@deannacrownover3]

Oh no, You said the title that sticks in my head! I'm typing this while listening to BP talk and the whole time I can hear "and it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like jelly roll and it stoned me!" I had to take that song off of one of my playlists because it sticks in my head so bad LOL.

[@cassbumk3565]

Just a n FYI, he is still with us

[@rayj1011]

Moondance!

[@lisakunka78]

Moon dance Is one of my absolute favorite songs. Van Morrison has a killer voice.

[@clifton8929]

Moondance and Tupelo Honey are excellent examples of Van The Man's greatness.

[@kencurtis2403]

Don’t forget Into the Mystic, my favorite!

[@LonghopeBro-ju6jl]

Astral Weeks is often overlooked.

[@boomeister2]

Yes! Pleease react to "Tupelo Honey".

[@ruthcrawford3015]

Baby Boomers such as myself have become known, now-days for insisting that "we had the best music"....and it's true. The incredibly vast verity of music is one of the reasons...plus radio...plus 'do your own thing' attitude. Van Morrison ...still in our collection of albums, cassettes, CD's and and now playlist via ONLINE (online shinning on our collections for a whole new audience). Thanks for sharing your reaction!

[@susannehouse3857]

Can't beat a bit of Boomer music.......😂😂😂

[@LovesLabs]

Definitely! And we got the benefit of the ‘70’s, 80’s, 90’s plus too!

[@ruthcrawford3015]

@@LovesLabs Yes yes yes!! WIDE range. I was born in 1953....my teenage sister played great 'be-bop' on records, and along with our Parents we watched many of the greatest talents of their age, in black & white on Ed Sullivan, our Uncle who lived with us played serious Country back then, we saw some fads come and go, on the music scene growing up, but what an amazing wide range of input, songs during and after Vietnam War .Bob Dylan, Linda Ronstat, Ike & Teana Turner etc etc etc!!! It's really fun for me to watch the reactions from this current younger gen. Love that they love the music! OUR music!! ...and expanding their own capabilities!

[@LovesLabs]

@@ruthcrawford3015 totally agree, I’m a child of the mid ‘50’s too. Weren’t we lucky?

[@JosieBowman-u2c]

I've noticed when my daughter plays music ' on line' it's ever so slightly faster than the vinyl, which sounds WAY BETTER

[@BigMike1073]

I love that a rapper is reacting to all genres. There’s so much great music beyond 1 genre.

[@SpeedRacerXM5]

Too bad we can't react to rap!!! WE COULDNT SAY HALF THE WORDS and most of the topics would be inappropriate

[@coreenavenn4235]

Educational to learn about music before rap

[@Songbird-59]

Van Morrison is one of my absolute favorites. He is so talented. He plays multiple instruments, writes his lyrics, and this rabbit hole is a very deep and full of GREAT music. Tupelo Honey, Into the Mystic, Moondance, Have I Told You Lately, Bright Side of the Road. . . . . He is still around and putting out music, which I purchase.

[@827dusty]

This Irishman has more soul in him than many who are just posing or faking it. Van Morrison LIve video with "The Band" playing "Caravan." Unbelievable.

[@gwydion56]

I loved seeing you enjoy this song. This is music designed to make you happy.

[@rosemaryabbott1020]

This was Van Morrison’s first big hit. I was 12 and my eyes are brown. I loved it. Still do.

[@jwine4145]

There’s a few songs that bring a smile to my day no matter my mood. Two are from Van. This and Into the Mystic. 😎

[@Memorylanemodelcars2]

😂 Yes Robert VM was American Folk Rock li like CCR my Favorite is Crazy Love Which Aston Neville Did a Cover for Movie Phenomenom

[@Memorylanemodelcars2]

[@markstryshak539]

Fact you will appreciate. His original title and lyric was “brown skinned girl”. He wrote it about an interracial relationship. He changed it to make it more radio friendly.

[@vlcccapt]

More radio friendly in the US.

[@joshuaharvey4116]

Remember, it was the 60’s.

[@nrgzrbny]

Today I learned..

[@Sometimes-even-lyrical]

Brown-eyed girl here. Van is legendary... and, yes, he's still creating! 🥰

[@leannelittle6067]

I love this song. I used to sing it to my awesome baby girl. She was a German Shepherd mix. Rest in peace, my best friend.

[@LaPinturaBella]

The vibe of this song is just so uplifting, fun, and definitely makes you want to dance...no matter where you are when you hear it. It's obe of those songs that just puts you in a great mood.

[@angelalambert6069]

Yes !! I thought it was just me ... can't stand still !

[@northnsouth6813]

It's a 60's song but could have been recorded yesterday. Timeless.

[@CBB672]

He’s still alive and still making music

[@KathrynKufar]

My long ago boyfriend used to blast this in the car when it went on. Cause I was his brown eyed girl. Listen to Van's "Moondance". It'll take you to a beautiful place.

[@lorrainebowen6530]

What a rabbit hole to go down! You will love his music!!!❤

[@DianaLynnSahlen]

Great tune, my late husband, was a musician and would sing this too me (except changed to blue eyed) Van Morrison is still performing and got to see him (again)in my City just 2 years ago. Appreciate you keeping our old tunes alive.

[@heartwork8318]

This song is pure joy! I always loved it as a kid because I was a brown eyed girl 🤭❤️‍🔥✌🏻🫶🏻

[@karencolley-smidt864]

I'm a brown eyed girl too 😊

[@Jen-in-Texas]

Me too!

[@theodoreritola7641]

Black P .HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE RAIN IS FROM .CCR IS FROM 1971 ITS 70s

[@LillyMarz777]

Me too.

[@pisl78]

The original song was Brown Skin Girl. The record label insisted he change the song.

[@cindyv1401]

VAN MORRISON - perhaps my favorite artist ❣️ MOONDANCE - definitely my favorite song 🤗 Slainte' 🍻

[@davidjennings1771]

I remember my brown eyed girl. She didn't want me to forget her either, my brown eyed girl`~~~ It was the summer of 1967, and it was known as the Summer of Love. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band came out that year too. It was the Beatles eighth album I believe, I was drafted the following spring, and I still have that draft card in my crusty old wallet. I took an extra year of service to get my school of choice and that got me thirteen months in Beautiful Thailand Black Pegasus. I think you'll agree it's beautiful and the food is fine and all good except for the sun-dried squid. The Thais loved it! I hit the lottery so to speak BP, being in R&R Land and I & I land instead of Vietnam just a few miles away behind Laos & Cambodia. The Mekong River separates Thailand from Laos & Cambodia. Small, motorized boats can navigate this large river, 12th longest in the world.

[@suzanrice4834]

I am a green eyed girl, I always sung this song with …. My green eyed girl……. LOL still do at 67 years old….

[@blackprix]

When I belong to the Columbia record club… Some of you people in your late 60s and early 70s would remember that. One of the first albums I bought was this one by Van Morrison didn’t even hear his music just bought it like the picture, like the titles of the songs and then that was the endgame, love love love this music bought everything you put out‼️😊😊😊

[@JeanetteFaith]

The album "Tupelo Honey" is the only album I bought twice because I wore out the first one. I had this song on a 45 record. lol..

[@barbarahawkins7331]

Man! I didn’t even know how much I needed this song tonight! This has been my song all my 60+yrs! Thanks BP! 🇺🇸💙

[@SBel65]

My all time fav song! 😊

[@cmoplay1]

And Moondance, it gets to your soul.

[@Blue-6773]

This song and Mr. Blue Sky always brighten my mood.

[@micheleparadis2808]

So so many great songs! Crazy Love, Someone Like You, Moondance, etc...

[@mmiller1296]

my husband used to sing this to me.............memories

[@nolalivingstone4974]

The first 45 that I bought. Love this song and Van Morrison.

[@joanndowers5080]

If you are a brown eyed girl you know how special this song is for us. I always fealt like Van was singing to me. Lol. And it always cheered me up!!!❤😊

[@bosvigos9165]

He is still around and touring. Thankfully! Try his "Into the Mystic... 😊"Truly wonderful...

[@megsullivan9149]

He’s absolutely amazing! Crazy Love and Someone Like You are all time favorites!

[@JuliaKardaras]

Teenager in Texas in the 70s...every pool, every skating rink and all the radio stations all summer. Song of Summer.

[@lindahendricks1868]

loved this song for a long time. I was born in 63. And right now this song has me chair dancing. 👍

[@etcurran3107]

My era of music. Yay!! Van Morrison awesome singer. Love this song, love the person behind the music.

[@just1mansopinion]

Transistor radios, such a huge part of my early life, and now....forgotten! Cheers\=/\=/

[@JeanetteFaith]

lol...I had one also.

[@CBB672]

I think every wedding I’ve gone to plays this song

[@kbrewski1]

You need to diversify and get some blue eyed friends.

[@Bekka_Noyb]

all time classic! ♥

[@joelilley6603]

Both this song and Different Drum by Linda Ronstadt give me that happy feeling, and I've always had them on my phone to listen to over and over. Two of my all-time favorites. 👍👍

[@yogaphile7833]

I grew up with this music, never made the CCR connection, but can now definitely see it. Upbeat music; similar vocal tone between these two iconic singers; lyrics are about simpler times, simpler places, nature, water; sunshine.

[@brendamclean8447]

Omg I love this song forever! Thanks so much for the great memory this morning ❤

[@taun856]

His song "Wild Night" is my favorite but this is awesome too.

[@texmextrecia6062]

Love this classic💙 always a feel-good vibe hearing this. You and your adorable Familia have a nice day 💥💥

[@hbruso1212]

I knew you would love (or know of) this one! And absolutely music is universal. I'm happy you're happy listening to this classic! Wishing you and your family a very blessed New Year! ❤

[@imocchidoro]

It's another one of those song that everyone at the beach turned up the volume on their transistor radios. Great reaction.

[@sandyleewhite]

Such a classic rock Gold song!!! Great memories, Great music, miss this..........

[@lonnierichter6962]

I used to go to a sports bar with all kinds of sports on TV, pool tables, in a college town, and every Sunday night, they would have a DJ playing oldies. Whenever the DJ played this song, the place went nuts and really got into it.

[@randomtruths3400]

Always amazed that such a surly guy could produce such joyous music.

[@scott3744]

The first Van Morrison song I ever knew 👍😁

[@sedatedape315]

Another one of those songs where me and my brothers, all under 10, are sitting in the back seat singing along with our Mom ❤ Lovin the reaction. Lovin the song. Lovin the memory!

[@bobbi1972]

My mom still sings this to me but says “My blue eyed girl” 😊

I was born 1965 but I grew up in the 70's and love this song

[@jackielawrence1451]

Tupelo Honey, Moondance, And all the others! Keep it going hon with all the great music.

[@Gloren50]

My first term at University was in the summer of 1967 and this song was part of the soundtrack of that summer. It takes me back to that summer every time I hear it.

[@revaflowers3115]

Van the Man. His sound and voice is the best. He actually is still playing and making music. "These Are The Days" is what I relax to all the time.

[@ellenbakker-w8x]

OH LOVELY SONG !!!!! I LOVED IT !!!!! THANKS !!!!!

[@tonic8945]

Van the man, one time drinking buddy of Jim Morrison's and left us with classics like this and Moondance and many more ❤

[@Jude_196]

SUCH A LIL' JAM!! THANKS, BP!!! THIS one made me SMILE: BIG!!! :) HUGS from TEXAS!

[@TPaine1776]

He was my favorite part of The Last Waltz when they did Caravan. The man is a legend.

[@WendyCarroll-g7z]

I wanna SING and DANCE when I hear this song!

[@watrandy99]

I'm guessing it is also one of the most covered songs over the past 50 years. Jimmy Buffett covered it and it became one of the most popular songs at his concerts.

[@deborahpaley21]

'67 i think, i was 13 and was crazy about this song.

[@angelado3]

have always loved this song-

[@gwenivere73]

Moondance, Tupelo Honey, Wild Night, and Crazy Love are great songs by Van Morrison. They're close favorites for me to his song that I have loved since I was a kid.

[@TerryBeasley-b1y]

Shows that one part of love can be the fun , playfulness and spontaneity. ❤❤

[@leonardshevlin7260]

This song is about children discovering heavy petting.

[@pmrich7035]

Extremely prolific artist. This album released in 1967, his most recently released in 2024. “…Someone like You” from the ‘87 album “Poetic Champions Compose” was our wedding song.

[@singluna888]

He's great in any decade. This is my favorite. His voice is unique. Moondance and Tupelo Honey are great.

[@mdkram]

This song will make everyone in the pub start dancing. 100% guaranteed.

[@debh-714]

Phenomenal musician! So unique, so awesome! Van the man Morrison…listen to Moondance!

[@lynnelle66]

My husband was in a rock ‘n’ band in high school and college. He talked the band into singing this song because I was a brown eye girl with red hair. Today he still sings it to me after 50 some years together.

[@Franciszkowska]

Moon dance! Van Morrison

[@lorrahowell3567]

"Wavelength" too.

[@amygillespie2588]

I agree, Moondance is my favorite. Van Morrison was my dad’s favorite artist. Sadly, he passed away before getting to attend a concert.

[@jmarasco510]

Great observation with the credence reference

[@EShelby2127]

Many friends have played covers of this in Irish Pubs (even though Van Morrison is from the 'other side of the tracks' in the North), it always gets everyone dancing! (In Seattle, it's always "Making love in the green grass, behind Husky Stadium")

[@sandramoore]

This needs to be on all the playlists for Happy songs.

[@andreadeamon6419]

This was always my song that the blue eyed gals would sing to me. Every one of my friends have had blue eyes! (I'm 57 and think 1 friend had brown eyes with me and that was in 1st grade)

[@Renee-Suzanne]

Ohhhhh, I was feeling so low tonight and I typed, "music reaction videos" into the KZbin search bar and on the first page was you and this video. You are SO RIGHT! My spirit has been lifted and it definitely made me smile and sing along. Van Morrison is all before "my time" but like you said, who doesn't know "Brown Eyed Girl" hehe. Thank you for this reaction and sharing with all of us.

[@daphneboutin2714]

[@mariefraher8725]

Van the Man! Brings the poet. Brings the horns. He wrote "brown skinned girl," but they told him it was too controversial and he had to change it for the radio. "Into the Mystic," "Tupolo Honey," "Moondance," " Wild Nights" among so many others.

[@JeanetteFaith]

not true. it was always brown eyes..........

[@personalcheeses8073]

@@JeanetteFaith Yes I have always believed it to be a fallacy. As when he was growing up in NI there were very few brown skinned girls around.
