I didn’t realize Pam Beasley had a reaction channel. Nice

[@auralfixxation6702]

They are the greatest 70's band that actually isn't from the 70's.

[@kburdy]

Check out The Sheepdogs for more modern 70’s bands 😋😉

[@calmnrelaxed]

Nah, they are great...but the 70's had a lot of great groups...Stylistics, Isley Brothers, Earth, Wind and Fire, Enchantment, Delphonics, Harold Melvin & the Bluenotes, Jacksons, Commodores, OJays, etc just to name a few.

Anderson.Paak never goes wrong. Incredible music all the time! Both are awesome!

[@HarmonicFox]

This entire album is impossible to listen to, without a cheesy smile the entire time. They had an idea they wanted to portray with this song and they nailed it on the head. Composition is incredible, lyrics are hilarious. One of the greatest bands of the last century.

[@stephenord3403]

I'm an old man but grew up with 60s soul. It's back with these guys and the band. Real music is back 🙌. Love you Bruno, Anderson, the band. Love to America 🇺🇸 from England 🇬🇧

[@cParman9]

This is the smoothest Diss Track ever.

[@Kage521]

Bruno is a true performer and singer all of his songs are great and fun.

[@lostnemesis]

Bruno Mars just has been working his way through the decades like look at it he started his career singing that 2000s early 2010s style of music that he kind of patented and then he decided you know what I'm going to work my way through genre and decade and I'm here for it.

[@davidhughes9320]

The whole album is great. I like how much fun they all seem to be having, they don't seem to be taking themselves too seriously and are just incredibly talented.

[@BluEx22329]

Thanks for highlighting Anderson's singing ability as well. Also the spirit of Michael Jackson and James Brown were in full effect with this song

[@jo_ni_kay]

"Smokin Out The Window" songwriters: Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, and D'Mile Producers: Bruno Mars & D'Mile Vocal Producer: Bruno Mars Music Video Directors: Bruno Mars and John Esparza Vocals, guitar, percussion: Bruno Mars Vocals: Anderson .Paak Bass, piano: D'Mile Drums: Homer Steinweiss Check out their live performances of SOTW at the American Music and Soul Train Awards. Both are excellent. You also need to experience their album "An Evening With Silk Sonic." It doesn't disappoint. TRIVIA: Everyone in this music video is a member of Bruno's backing band the Hooligans (except for Andy of course).

[@brentd.4093]

We saw them in Vegas August 2022.... OUTSTANDING !!!!! from start to finish. Clever, brilliant and so talented theses guys!

[@gtrulez]

I love that Bruno has evolved his style into 70's soul/motown the last few years. At first i didn't really like his songs but now that he did changed up a bit i'm digging these tracks! It was like a fresh wind blowing through mainstream pop music. It's probably also why i like the recent Dua Lipa's songs, they also got these lovely baselines going. Love it!

[@cheahbuddy6146]

He has some old songs that are definitely bangers but his vibe nowadays is godly, every hit is a banger, this fella has me singin and dancing in my kitchen and in the mirror like a fool 🤣🤣🤣.

[@carolmiller5713]

It’s always fun to have professionals point out details, thank you. This is one of my favorite songs with the serious R&B vibe complimented with Paak’s humor. He said in an interview that Bruno pushed him vocally & seems to have worked out well!

[@shell8481]

Loved absolutely everything about this, the vocals, the smooth choreography and presentation topped off with their tongue in cheek humour and playfulness.... I want more !

[@bradleyhymen9687]

I'm not a Bruno Mars fan but he really does seem to have his own sound when most new artists sound the same so I can respect that. This is funny.

[@hardleecure]

yeah the last few years musically have been definitely getting better. Bruno here doing the classic soul/r&b stuff. The Sheepdogs doing the classic rock kinda led zeppelin/allman brothers mix. I hope it's a sign of good things to come.

[@chinenye4457]

Uhmm won't say it's his sound maybe his niche....might be wrong

[@jaderlelis27]

Who's NOT a Bruno Mars fan? There's no such thing.

[@MrThemexacutioner]

​@jaderlelis27 Me. I love Silk Sonic and Bruno is an amazing singer but............no.

[@Hey_Jamie]

The joy on your face when you hear something you like is so infectious

[@mattrichardson5678]

This isn’t something I would ordinarily come across in my listening, but being exposed to different styles of music is a good thing! It’s hard to deny the groove of this song, and they really nail the retro soul vibe they’re going for. Thanks for this one Elizabeth, your joy and passion are always so infectious!

[@emersonmartinez1962]

Bruno’s and aanderson’s dance moves so clean and smooth

[@haniefpratama3974]

came for the vocal analysis, stayed for basically just her fangirling Silk Sonic. love it.

[@capstan50g]

They're so good. They're So Good. They're so GOOD! They take me back to my teen years when Smokey Robinson and the Miracles ruled the airwaves. Unbelievable talent on display here. Thanks so much for the reaction, Elizabeth! For a similar experience with the blues, I think you'd crush on Shoshana Bean singing Make It Rain at The Theatre At Ace Hotel.

[@strider8933]

Every time I listen to Bruno, I hear 70's funk and some jazz. Love it!

[@sarawlindgreen3115]

I love that both song, outfits and lighting makes my brain go into 70's vibes 🤩 it's retro in all the right ways ❤️

[@ghomerhust]

straight to the disco, even though none of them was alive for disco!

[@OmniphonProductions]

Several years ago, when my son was in elementary school, I was tucking him into bed. Just as I was about to turn off the light and walk out of the room, he said, "Hey, dad?" I paused ans asked, "What's up?" Then, out of nowhere, he says, "A lot of kids at my school like Justin Bieber, but it's just 'cause they haven't heard Bruno Mars." I was so proud, I swear I almost cried. Then a few months ago, we were in Las Vegas. We didn't score tickets to the live show, _but_ we had dinner in the same building...and just knowing _that_ filled us with joy and excitement. P.S. I love their use of Major 7ths and Major 9ths in the back-up vocals. They create a "sweet dissonance" that really fills out the harmony chords just beautifully!

[@mhh1153]

Great story, junior having good taste👌

[@theabbot88]

im a die hard metal head but LOVE these two! this song speaks to me soul

[@LtFrankDrebin100]

It’s a legitimately perfect song, coupled with the PERFECT video to accompany it. Plus I love one gets the sense that Silk Sonic is just not gonna stop. This is clearly not just a one off side project for either of these great artists.

[@SteveFrank111]

Holy crap! That redefines smooth. And those background harmonies are fire.

[@raymitchell9736]

As much fun as this group is... don't underestimate your reaction video making it fun to experience the music along with you! You've made this delightful and fun to watch as well!

[@lleldridge1]

Elizabeth, I love your reactions/breakdowns. How can we not smile and giggle at this song/video? And I adore the choreo. 🔥

This show in Vegas was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. Their stage presence and showmanship are second to none.

[@scousewillo62]

I have watched the whole show many times now but it always amazes me. What a stunning collaboration. Each number is crafted into a chapter with different moods and styles that complement each other perfectly. I would say it is the ultimate body of work that lifts you and transports you to a different era. Thank you for reacting to it to give me another reason to listen to it again

[@emersonmartinez1962]

Anderson such a funny, happy, genuine, generous guy so truthful

[@GuilhermeBuzatto71421]

I love the way you seem to be melting down out of love for these two while you listen to and watch them, and giggling all the time... this is my exact reaction about every damn thing they release. Love Bruno and Anderson so much. Each of them apart was already brilliant, but together they're the best thing ever.

[@outcast491]

might be the best musicians currenlty actually playing music out there right now

[@Fluffybee-p2x]

Them holding and tilting the mic stand in sync while harmonising dramatically into the mics is such a throw back.

[@msvin2090]

I love your comment about how different but/and amazing the quality of their voices are. Got their own styles but together they're even better. Their skills and (maybe) their personalities complement each other well. The joy they let us experience just by watching and listening to them is undeniable. Really talented and fun-loving guys.

One thing that I think is overlooked is Paak incorporating a Southern Baptist Pastor with the: "ooooone thing fo sho! oooon thing fo sho". Even the mannerism is on point.

@@dcanngieter Bruno has definitely been pushing limits on this album. Anderson is super talented, and one of the best drummers out there today. He already has an collab with Ed. I think he really found himself in this genre, and that is what matters.

After the heaviness of the last video of yours I watched ("One" by Metallica) this is JUST what I needed! I love that Bruno can do everything with his voice, but is such an expert at not over-doing it all the time. It's just so tasteful the way he sings and the video/lyrics of this are hilarious! It was my real introduction to Paak and he is fantastic. Thank you for doing this song!

This reaction just filled me with joy. Came very close to matching my favorite of yours, the reaction to Chris Stapleton's Tennessee Whiskey. Your pure love of music is so contagious, and as a singer myself your technical grasp of music just adds even more. So thanks for what you do and bringing some joy to a world that needs that more than anything right now. 💖

[@yanky_]

They’ve got some of the SMOOTHEST voices I’ve ever heard honestly. Amongst old and new school

[@Dang3rMouSe]

My absolutely favorite part is when Pak comes in with the: "Just the other night she was gripping on me tight screaming Hercules!!!" stomp! stomp! (Hercules) stomp! stomp! (Hercules) 😏You probably decided not to mention it because of the innuendo but how absolutely creative was that?! There are so many ways in music to express making love that we've already seen, from very cleaver to straight up front nasty lyrics to certain rhythyms in the front or in the back but this is IMO, sonicly this is the best I've had the privilege to hear. It's highly suggestive & not just that, it's let's say... describing an enthusiastic final push by the team to cross that finish line for gold✨🏆✨. Yet at the same time it isn't raunchy, over the top or out of sync with the rest of the song. It is accomplished is such a playful & balanced creative manner that it delivers the point without drawing excessive attention away from the song & story.

[@emersonmartinez1962]

🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm here for that! "Feeling That Way/Anytime" definitely has my vote. I just hope it's not "Winds Of March". I love that song, it's one of my favorites and showcases Steve's voice so well but it's too sad, especially when Elizabeth is about to have her baby.

[@victorsixtythree]

During the whole reaction video I was waiting for you to get to the end with Bruno's high notes! Amazing!

[@gwooledge]

For quite some time I've been wanting to recommend Earth, Wind & Fire for Elizabeth's reaction. There is one specific performance of Fantasy that I really want to use, but I haven't been able to find it on KZbin. I have an audio CD which says it was "Recorded Live in Japan April 20, 1995". I've found other performances from Japan on other dates, but they don't compare to this one. Maybe there is no existing video for that date -- I have no idea. Anyway, if you can find a good live performance of Fantasy, I think you'll love it.

[@yungguattari4924]

Their album together is simply magnificent.

[@Broccoli_Highkicks]

Welp, I need this album. I listen to a lot of metal, but I love the 70s vibe. Popular music has become so homogenised and stale, mainstream music was just much more interesting and adventurous in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Nowadays pop sticks to a very narrow band, and people's musical universe lamentably keeps shrinking and shrinking. Also, Bruno Mars is the natural successor to Michael Jackson, and to some extent, Prince.

[@KevinIandutton]

Ive found that the ease of access to music creation has only increased its variety especialoy as pop has subsumed so many genres and really genres themselves have become a thing of the past. I think that as we age and settle into the comfort of our individual worlds and indulge nostaliga our willingness to put in the work to challenge our ears and our tastes lessens and so does the time we might take to try new music. Fresh fridays is a playlist spotify makes of the weeks new releases and I try to give it a listen whenever I can. Not only do I find new bands all the time, I also am constantly shocked by the sheer breadth of music out there by professional and home grown artists as well. I also think with recommendation algorithms being what they are, it kindof locks us into an infinite mirror of our own choices and then all we hear outside of that are those top 40 pop songs of the moment creating the illusion that music has become more homogenous or is inky trending one way.

[@KevinIandutton]

Also Bruno Mars is a living legend 💯💯

[@Hessian247]

Bruno Mars is definitely more Prince in this fashion then MJ fr

[@CarlosRamTx]

Same here. I'm mostly a metal guy but appreciate a lot of other genres. The 70s vibe is always good and Bruno is great at it.

[@bfure1]

I'd say the Weeknd is also carrying on the legacy of Prince and Michael Jackson

[@kirbys1370]

Hi Elizabeth, this is my first time listening to this song, and I loved the performance. Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak (Silk Sonic) have great chemistry together, and the choreography and humor in this song was amazing.

They are both smokers in real life. Can you imagine what Bruno could do with clean lungs?! As an ex-smoker (who cannot sing), I can tell how much harder it was to just walk up a couple flights of stairs when I still smoked. Let alone dance AND sing at the same time. I would have died.
