REO SPEEDWAGON - CAN'T FIGHT THE FEELING | REACTION

[@gwensnyder8313]

“Roll with the Changes”or “Riding the Storm Out”, next, please! Both are bangers. Roll has a wicked organ solo.

[@tiendo6565]

it's R....E....O speedwagon. great group...

[@JackleenaO]

I like when he mispronounces band/singer names; it confirms that its a blindside for him! 😆

[@that1mamalady]

It drives me nuts. My daughter had a friend who told me that he was listening to that Reo band. It took me forever to figure out he meant R...E...O Speedwagon

[@Renkk17]

Next.....REO Speedwagon - Roll with the Changes - Take it on the Run

[@j.j.upright4010]

🎸 "TAKE IT ON THE RUN" And "KEEP ON LOVIN' YOU" By R..E..O SPEEDWAGON Are both Mandatory Listens! 🥁

[@joelliebler5690]

One of their biggest hits! Great vocals!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@mhlevy]

REO Speedwagon really rocked in the 1970s, this was a big hit for them, but they really sort of "wimped out" with this song. As some said below, "Riding the Storm Out" was really great, but another really great song was "Golden Country." And for some incredible guitar playing, the late Gary Richrath REALLY rocked out on "Roll with the Changes" and the instrumental "The Flying Turkey Trot!" And "157 Riverside Avenue" was really great. In fact, if you can, please try and check out that song live, as well as "Riding the Storm Out." On the original recording of "Riding the Storm Out," Kevin Croner hadn't yet joined the band, and his vocals really added quite a lot. Their live album "You Get What You Play For" was really terrific!

[@rev402]

Back when these came out (and boy am I dating myself) they described these type of songs as "power ballads". Oh, the bands name is also R.E.O. Speedwagon. The band was named after a 1934 fire truck - have no idea what the story is behind that, but that's the name anyway.

[@Cashcrop54]

REO was a juggernaut in the 70's! Almost seemed like they were at every concert I went to. But, my favorite was Gary on lead guitar and they weren't the same after. Just me. I love these songs. You should react to "Riding The Storm Out". Especially good live. I used to shun any music that wasn't loud and rocking. My biggest regret. Another excellent reaction!

[@johndbrandhorst4434]

Great album is REO live you get what you play for 🎸🎶

[@jeffschielka7845]

This brings back memories. Try Golden Country or 157 Riverside Avenue from the live album You Get What You Play For. REO at their best! Also Riding The Storm Out is incredible.

[@meganparsons9106]

Yes definitely that live version of 157 Riverside Ave rocks. I was listening to it Just the other day. I swear it was just the other day :) Just the other day.

Gary Richrath, the guitarist for REO was my crush as a teenager! I saw him at The Electric Ballroom in Atlanta once and he gave me a 🌸!! ❤️

[@garfield122010]

" keep on loving you " was their biggest hit ❤️

[@vickiroman189]

Riding the Storm Out and Keep on Loving You. Love your reactions.

[@historyguy5942]

Huge radio hit of the late 70s. Remember learning the guitar parts for the band I was in at the time...like it was yesterday.

[@deborahdennehy9937]

The video is very good too! This particular song really does make you think, & so beautiful. xx

[@kierstenridgway4634]

Idk what REO stands for, but they definitely are part of the soundtrack of my teenage years. ❤✌

[@jeffschielka7845]

REO stands for Ransom Eli Olds. It is an ancestor of the pickup truck. Made 1915-1953.

[@johnfoster5295]

It is pictured on their debut album.

[@jeffschielka7845]

@@johnfoster5295 Yes it is. Sweet looking truck!🛻

[@johnfoster5295]

@@jeffschielka7845 Also a great underrated album. Terry Luttrell the singer went on to join Starcastle.

[@hippiejoe969]

I've see R.E.O. Speedwagon several times, they got their big break from playing at the Imperial lounge here in St . Louis, MO where I'm from and where a couple of the members of from, and so we got to see R.E.O every tour either as an opening act or headliner. 157 Riverside is cool song , Riding the Storm Out, and, Time For Me To Fly and many more. Looking some more Kenny Wayne Shepherd Thanks. PEACE

[@wild8757]

Definitely need to here riding the storm out, 157 Riverside Ave., roll with the changes.

[@richardstewart1989]

So R-E-O Speedwagon started in the late 60's as a ROCK band. This is one of their pop hits after they sold out and went top 40. If you want to hear real rock by them start with: Golden Country, Sophisticated Lady, 157 Riverside Ave, Like Yo Do, Flash Tan Queen, Let Me Ride and Music Man... Thanks brother

[@marilynk30]

There's many different types of rock! Soft rock is what I would call this!

[@styles2980]

One of those early rock ballads that executes a good guitar solo well. Seems like all of the hair metal groups of the 80's tried to emulate the guitar solo in the ballads like REO did so well in this song. Time stamp 3:08.

[@williamaustin1084]

Yes roll with the changes and ridin the storm out are must hear by REO Speedwagon. Listen to the live versions, this band is one of the few who sound better live IMO

[@naturesounds-ib5dh]

REO: Riding the storm out, Tough Guys

[@liligames5775]

Top tune

[@beckmn1]

Others have commented on the band name being initials .... very similar issue as the band ELO for Electric Light Orchestra. . REO Speedwagon has sold more than 40 million records and has charted 13 Top 40 hits. They were one of the more successful bands in the 70s and they continue to tour to this day.

[@bangmon1000]

I remember wining their album Hi Infidelity in the summer of 1981 from a radio station. My siblings and I listening to the album over and over that summer. You still need to listen to: Triump - Magic Power Two other early 80's rock/pop bands that you still need to listen to: Night Ranger - Sister Christian Lover Boy - Living for the Weekend

[@brandonious7732]

It's actually r.e.o. like e.l.o. but also I'd like to see you react to blues traveler, the hook pleeaasse.

[@RESET1776]

Several of those listening where probably born because of this track 🙈

[@mistymichelle9957]

🤣🤣🤣 Facts

[@williameller7002]

Thanks for finally do this band

[@thevoiceofthelordpastorkei7165]

Wilburn, just FYI brothrer, The group is not called Reo speedwagon brother, their called R.E.O. speedwagon! They have numerous hits, one of the greatest bands from 1967 through the 70's & even into the 80' s!! One of the greatest bands from those erras!! 👍 Take it on the run and I can't fight this feeling are two other fantastic songs just to name a couple!!

[@anthonyf8121]

Supertramp- “Child of Vision”

[@JoeSmith-ey2xp]

"Golden Country" is their best song imho.

[@terrylucaspoetrycoach4489]

In case you didn't see the other comment, it's R-E-O Speedwagon--the letters pronounced individually. :)

[@garyhill2063]

Golden country live

[@jeffschielka7845]

One of their best!

[@JackleenaO]

KISS is notoriously hard rock-- I saw them live in early 2000s. My ears were blocked/ringing for 3 days! Lol. But listen to their song "Beth."

[@scottlaughlin9897]

Golden Country and 157 Riverside Ave. both live. And a forgotten gem Back on the Road again. Can’t believe no one mentioned that one. Watch the likes for these picks.

[@pattomei70]

React to Headquarters video it shows thier making of this song and thier sense of humor also.

[@willcordelo9582]

Like you said, rock is not just headbanging! That's just one side of so many. R-E-O are not head bangers. They are classic rock with a few rock ballads. All of their songs are really good because they are a VERY talented band.

[@stevebuckskinner5482]

[@killiansred1000]

Songs from the sixties and seventies were released on vinyl albums. CDs are too clean for the older music. REO’s, “You can tune a piano but you can’t tuna fish,” is one of their best albums.

[@j.jennings1722]

R. E. O. ...REO Speedwagon is one of the kings of the Power Ballad. You should react to one of their big rock hits, "Ridin' the Storm Out." I prefer the album version, but when Kevin Cronin became lead singer, their live version went straight to #1. It's an amazing song. The live version is better, but I have a soft spot for the OG version. Either one would be awesome.

[@kenthunter6850]

As the comments grow you'll hear so many songs by REO that are better, much better, in my opinion. This was one of their power ballads that was a hit, but Keep on Lovin You, Roll with the Changes, Golden Country, Riden the Storm Out, Time for me to Fly, 157 Riverside Ave, Flyin Turkey Trot...

[@daveconder4351]

Forgot 157 RIVERSIDE AVENUE

[@cletushouse906]

If you are going to listen to these guys, then you have to listen to their early stuff and not this elevator music. Try ANYTHING from their early stuff from the album with the front of the R E O truck. 157 Riverside Avenue, Dead At Last, Gypsy Woman’s Passion. Or anything else from that album is far better than this.

[@marksummers1700]

horrible piece of pop drivel... after having done some great tunes, like Keep Pushing..
