WAIT WHATT!.. | FIRST TIME HEARING Rod Stewart - Maggie May REACTION

[@stevefrost64]

Anyone else suddenly feel like they belong in a museum when they see reactions like this. Sir Rod Stewart is a music legend young man. Rod is still playing and performing today at 78.

[@michaelwduffy]

That’s incredible still going out there at 78!! 😲

[@coinneachmaclellan3121]

Ironically it seems that a fair number of "reactors" have had limited exposure to a wide variety of music yet the possibilities available to them online is far greater now than when the music they're reviewing was created. I think that a lot of it is due to "niche marketing" but that still doesn't explain their seeming lack of patience in accepting and understanding the music that they're being exposed to.

[@lizetteolsen3218]

This guy is either a moron, or just trying to get clicks. Regardless of age, he would have come across this song at some point in life. It is an iconic song--not a 70s song.

I think this guy is fill of crap claiming he never heard of Rod Stewart and he makes the same claim on several videos about many well known music artists. He is merely one of many of his generation who are putting out videos like this. Probably easier to do this than to get a real job. Time for a lot of these " music commentators " to move out of the basement, get out from under the rock and start actually being productive members of society .

[@zennenn]

Just to bring in some perspective for those who are commenting about how shocked they are that Rod Stewart wasn't already known, how many of you were familiar with the stars of the 1920s back in the 70s when this song came out? This song, which I have loved all my life since I was born in 1974, is about 50 years old. Why would he be familiar with Rod Stewart? It's great he's interested in understanding more about the awesome music we had when we were young!

[@Isleofskye]

He was only a teenager and got used and abused by an older Woman,who showed him the ways of the World... Why couldn't that have been me in London? 😄

[@RLucas3000]

Definitely a dark tinge to the song he and many people didn’t pick up on. Far darker now, as back then a teen boy was considered ‘lucky’ to meet an older woman (clearly at least in her 40s or 50s, as several lines hint at) who gives it to him. Not nowadays.

Rod S' is in the Rock Hall of Fame, two times, as a Solo Artist, and as a member of The Faces. He started in the Sixties, singing for Jeff Beck's band (Beck erectly just died; phenomenal guitarist) He then Joined The Faces, who had been the Small Faces -and toured with them, and did solo work. When the Faces broke up, members joined The Rolling Stones and The Who, in the late 70's. Rod has a tun of hits, and still recording and touring. Roderick David Stewart, born 1945, had a Scottish father, and sometimes used to wear the Stewart tartan as part of his attire, even a scarf or trousers. Rod was also known for some gorgeous woman in his life.

[@Rassskle]

Maggie May was Rods first solo hit record in Australia...... but he was still the lead singer of The Faces at the same time. The Faces did perform Maggie May in live performances and many more of Rods solo efforts. Rod joined The Faces when still called The Small Faces, along with Mick Taylor. Mick Taylor left to join a little unknown group named The Rolling Stones. Ronnie Wood joined The Faces and together with Rod shot them back to world wide recognition........ Wood also joined The Rolling Stones and for many years was lead guitarist for both The Faces and The Stones. Now...... The Small Faces was fronted by legendary guitarist singer Stevie Marriot. Known as a psychedelic rock band, they also pioneered heavy and hard rock, as many psychedelic bands did. Those with a memory might even consider that heavy metal came from psychedelic rock. lol When Marriot left The Small Faces to form Humble Pie, the Small Faces lost their singer and guitarist..... so they hired Taylor on guitar and Rod on vocals. The original band members were already famous, soon they all would be. They changed the band name to The Faces when they realised that neither Mick nor Rod had a small face. lol Sir Rod has a back catologue of over 100 poppy songs for young girls and the top 40 lists. If you want his good stuff try his early soul and blues years.... Good morning Little School Girl. or Street Fighting Man..... a Stones cover. or Downtown Train.... a Tom Waites cover.

[@friedaprince]

saw him in concert several years ago, I think he was 74 at the time, still sounds just as good as he did in 1971 when I first heard the 45, Maggie May and Reason to believe. He has so many hits, definitely worth checking out. Loved your first reaction!

[@daveloboda1769]

One of so many great Rod Stewart songs, a massive back catalogue of superb music. Try "Downtown Train", "Reason to Believe", "This Old Heart of Mine" and my personal favourite "Mandolin Wind". The instrument you asked about is a mandolin.

Just a little tip , much of the 70s music wasn't straight up R& R. There was Southern rock , a blend of rock , blues & country..Bands like the Allman brothers were absolute fire . CCR, Marshall Tucker band , all highly influential, check them out . Then there was Motown , mid 60s through the 70s, Disco with hot groups like the BeeGess . The deal is 70s music can't be narrowly defined as just R& R. And the talent range back then was incredible with singers & groups who played multiple instruments & had amazing vocals . No auto tune, or computer gimmicks either

They were a stand in group as Procul Harem couldn’t appear due to exhaustion. This was here in Cambridge UK in about 1967. Great for a stand in group.

[@OronOfMontreal]

You are wearing a University of Edinburgh shirt, in this video, which is fitting, because Rod Stewart is a Scottsman. The secret to his success, I believe, is an impeccable taste in which songs he should cover. This sense of his has served him tremendously. One example is "Handbags and Gladrags". Many other talented and famous singers had covered it but gotten nowhere with it. But Rod's version made it into a big hit. Rod the Mod!

[@brianb6024]

This was 1971. Before the age of social practicality. Before the time when rules and boundaries governed every relationship. Before a time when couples got together via a purposeful and premeditated "arrangement." Before the time of relationships based on convenience. Love just happened. Relationships just happened. And the pain from unrequited love just happened. All more or less arbitrarily. Socially, it was still a time of innocence, a time that had not yet faded away. I don't think there's another voice in the world that could express so perfectly the pain and rawness felt in this song. And the anguish in Rod's voice is perfectly matched by the anguish in the lyrics. Through this fusion, an incredible, painful and beautifully honest and heartfelt story is told. And I never get tired of hearing it, painful as it is. It brings back memories. Memories of bench-mark events, never to be repeated. Memories of Love's lessons, learned once, never allowed to happen again. And it's just like the memories of the song itself : Released once and only once, with Rod's voice at its peak, the band at its peak. A great album, great songwriting, all the stars aligned. A moment in time, happening just once, never to be repeated. These are memories of an event gone by, of a unique passing instance, of something gone forever. After all these years, this remains one of my favorite and most cherished love songs that I have ever heard.

Sir Rod Stewart, a legend in the 70's, still going strong today. You have a life time of his music to enjoy. At the time of Maggie, Rod was enjoying a successful career as lead singer with the Faces, as well as his solo career. Much of his music at this time featured the Mandolin as heard on Maggie. I like most of Rods work over the years, but mainly favour his early work. Try "Brocken Dream" recorded with Python Lee Jackson, but make sure it's the original version.
