If you want hot chemistry, watch Aaron and Linda Ronstadt singing Don’t Know Much live! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ajruther67]

Yes!

[@ithilnin123]

Yes at the 1990 Grammy's!

[@afordhere75126]

This!

So Good✌💜🎷

[@cspringer333]

Another New Orleans legend.

[@kheart7260]

💯% a true New Orleans LEGEND!

[@JohnBullard]

You would be shocked to see him. Built like a lumberjack, sang like an angel.

[@lydmarl.475]

And he still looks the same and sound even better at 80 plus!!

[@kheart7260]

Facts & more facts ❤️

[@kenmatthews46]

Agree with the others, his duet with Linda Ronstadt, "I Don't Know Much" is one of the greatest love songs you'll hear.

[@roguealien]

Yes, please react to that song! So much emotion!

[@thomasbeauchemin1298]

Pleaseeee!!!

[@danielgrosky1446]

I agree one hundred percent.

[@eclconsulting]

He did a couple of duets with Linda Ronstadt that are worth checking out. His name is pronounced nev-uhl.

[@m.harris2429]

Absolutely! Those were the best.

[@victorcowboywest]

They also dated.

[@katlu8178]

Aaron singing Ave Maria is as close to Heaven you can get and still be on this earth

[@ritamcbee]

His voice is so beautiful and unique. Anytime you hear that voice, you know it’s Aaron, I haven’t heard anyone else that sounds like him.

[@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS]

Him and Roy Orbison.

[@ritamcbee]

@@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS Yes!

[@joannevincent2035]

Aaron's voice is as close to heavenly as we mortals will ever hear in this lifetime.

[@tomsawyer2768]

Aaron’s voice was so unique! My fav was ,” The Grand Tour”, but this song and 4 or 5 Marvelous Masterpieces! The collaboration with Ronstadt was a perfect vocal match!

[@MommaBird52]

YES!

[@robertjones2728]

A New Orleans legend! When you hear this song you think about the city back in the day! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Thanks for this guys! You guys are the true shizzle! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@helgar791]

"I was not crying". I just got something in both of my eyes at the same time. I will never forget in 1967 the first time I heard this. The song was written by two members of his band at the time. Although now retired Aaron is still alive and well at the ripe young age of 80. And like the other commenters here I also say watch the very moving live version of his duet with Linda Ronstadt "Don't Know Much". Yes, the music of yesterday kills the junk of today.

[@donanderson8550]

His duet with Linda Ronstad /Don't Know Much is fire

[@m.harris2429]

YES!

[@martinespinosa9858]

One of the best singers

[@davidroseman4917]

Aaron Neville is one of the most versatile and talented musicians in existence and it's unfortunate that more people aren't familiar with his work. He's brilliant

[@susangalloway3055]

He is one of my favorites ! I have all of his albums!!! His duets with Linda Ronstadt are great!!!

[@tracymeredith9450]

This was my mother's favorite song! Aaron's voice is like butter...

[@loilt5091]

Aaron penned this classic back in '66...the voice & his signature delivery, kills it‼️

[@beeseewill2407]

Arron's voice is someting special. So distinctly different from any other sound.One of New Orlean's finest sons.

[@kathleenseddon6638]

Such a beautiful song

[@thomasbeauchemin1298]

Yes Aaron Neville is the real deal!! Great reaction!!

[@timelliott1033]

One of a greatly talented family.

[@jeffharry9675]

I love Aaron Neville. His version of For The Good Times is wonderful. I definitely sing this song.

[@chuckyoneil2853]

He's the size of a football player and that voice comes out of him,RAW TALENT!

[@bcojr1074]

He does a great job on Goerge Jones' THE GRAND TOUR.

[@joe80ss]

Luv this classic

[@darrelljohnson5764]

Sooooo many awesome tunes by Aaron ! Such a voice . Try Grand Tour .

[@dougieyou]

Shawn,you look gob smacked , this is a classic by the one and only Arron Neville. I think this is the song that really got to you. Amazing to watch your reaction.....Priceless !!!!

[@susangalloway3055]

Please do more Aaron!

[@deegomez2089]

Aaron's voice makes water come to my eyes too Shawn 💚

[@davidmazon7516]

This song reminds me of my vato Loco days in the 70s

[@pharamathews5152]

Love Aaron Neville voice & also The Neville Bros. I played the 45 "Tell It Like It Is" constantly in 1966 because I had some decisions to make about this guy who kept wanting to get closer to me & I wasn't ready. The song was like he & not Aaron was speaking to me. This song ended up helping me to change the course of my life. I moved to CA, he followed & we said "I Do" a year & a half later. We were together until he died in 2010.

[@suzannehennessy]

Your expressions as soon as Aaron began singing says it all.

[@Toni-pl4zz]

Yes Ma'am! This song put him on the map along with his brothers. Aaron Neville's voice is one of a kind. BTW just found your channel and I AM LOVING IT!!!

[@lisaharrod8386]

Burn me up, burn me down! Aaron's voice is just amazing!

[@kitcatsaunders]

Aaron Neville and his brothers are amazing , I saw Aaron live in concert at a place called Rams Head he was amazing ,and sang for almost 3 hours , love this man . Great reaction ,good vibes and much love ❤️

[@Gulfmist_63]

I grew up about 30 minutes from NOLA, it wasn't unusual to go down to the Quarter and see at least one Neville Brother hanging out. Best place to see them performing was Tipitina's. All that's left of the brothers is Aaron and Cyril.

[@TheDivayenta]

I actually watched some reactors who didn’t like Aaron because they thought he was a “ sissy” for sounding like he’s crying. I’ll just say this: the little girls know what the little boys don’t understand! We love you Aaron!

[@patriciarooney6113]

Thank you

[@kennethohnemus4750]

Please check out Dobie Grays song called Drift away. Love your energy and vibe

[@lydmarl.475]

Yes another great legend for sure!! And not to forget “Let go”!!!

[@pamelaflanner317]

BEST ever! And the Neville Brothers are the best out of New Orleans!

[@larryunsworth9573]

So glad you found Aaron Neville!! He is one of a kind and so much over looked! No one sings like him!

[@lloydkeller1809]

This is why we all love you two. You wear your hearts out there for all of us to see. We feel the same way about him. He sang that song.

[@deegomez2089]

I love Aaron's voice so much (last name rhymes with level). Pls do at least 1 live performance by him. Seeing him sing is a joy 🎶🎵 check out something by the Neville brothers also.

[@suzie4417]

No one compares to Aaron Neville 💖 He always gave a message ☮️🥰🎶. Check out a live version of This song recorded live at ‘ Daryl (Hall’s) House ‘in Hawaii. I have always wanted to go to New Orleans to hear Aaron Neville & The Neville Brothers sing live, also to catch CCR do a concert - still haven’t made it to New Orleans 😢🥰🎶

[@lydmarl.475]

For sure!!!

[@williamcalderon9158]

Shawn your reaction was timeless I Love it!!!!

[@zinarhone7642]

I love Aarron! His voice is one of a kind. Also check out Billy Stewart singing Strange Feelings.

[@CarolynStewart-v5q]

What a voice. And Mel, it's Aaron NEVill. He is a masterful soul singer. I love the 3/4 waltz time on this too.

[@josephponce3261]

One of a kind voice, this is one of my favorites I remember when it first came out 👍🏼🎼🎼

[@CajunGemini]

Ahhh one of my favorite voices to listen to! Be sure to follow up with more from him. Maybe also check out some music from he and his bros. as well. The Neville Brothers

[@dianefiske-foy4717]

My favorite song by Aaron since I was a teen, and I’m 68 now.

[@earlmiller192]

Take the time to check out more by Mr. Neville after this intro.

[@tanyatrujillo9212]

Love this song!!! You guys need to listen to Fats Domino- Blueberry hill, I hear you knocking, walking to New Orleans, Blue Monday, ain't that a shame. There's a few oldies but goodies!

[@kheart7260]

Yes 🙌🏼 yes 🙌🏼 yes! I🙋🏼‍♀️ 2nd, 3rd, & 4th this! 😄 love me some Fats! Another GREAT!

[@victorcowboywest]

Other hits "DON'T KNOW MUSH dute with Linda Ronstadt (1990), THE GRAND TOUR (1993), "FOR GOOD TIMES"(1995), "YES I LOVE YOU"(1997)

[@starleemartin1961]

My mom and I were just listening to Aaron Neville last night and freaked when he sang "Pledging My Love." Just freaking beautiful! His son Ivan is also a great artist as well as his brothers. Just an amazingly talented family! You NEED to check him out further because, my God, that voice hits parts of your soul that you never knew existed. "Crazy Love" just makes me want to scream in absolute ecstasy. That voice is a treasure!

[@susanfigueroa872]

My husband had this 45, way back, and wore the damn thing out!!! Love this song!! Thank You!!

[@kenennis6287]

Love your reactions to these songs that I grew up with and still love

[@m.harris2429]

Mel...I took this off the internet...Tell It Like It Is" is a song written by George Davis and Lee Diamond and originally recorded and released in 1966 by Aaron Neville. I agree with the squad...his duet with Linda Ronstadt, "I Don't Know Much" is amazing.

[@Lolo-zs2eo]

Haven’t heard this in years. Was stationed in New Orleans; got to see him perform. Beautiful song.

[@GinnyRobertsonLLC]

Great memories of awkward dancing to this in Jr High. I love his voice.

[@princedejour2686]

The Neville family were all very talented! Aaron probably has the best voice!

[@sharrongrant6240]

Aaron and The Neville Brothers are treasures from New Orleans

[@jimwillride]

I agree with you completely Aaron Neville is one of the best! The whole family tradition is worth checking into, which I am sure you already have by now and are being led there by other comments. So enjoy!!!

[@gregrodriguez5697]

When I saw this. I thought about time somebody reacted to Aaron Neville. The greatest voice ever!

[@idaduncan6260]

Could you imagine slow dancing dancing in high school to live wow those were the days.

[@harpergras]

He has like a million songs and all of them are great.

[@darlamills6846]

How have you two never heard of Aaron Neville? The Neville brothers...from Louisiana!! Always a winner...

[@spoonerfive]

Shawn, that reaction was priceless! Jaw dropping from the first note, and one of my all-time favorite ballads from the sixties. This is a grand slam of a performance by Mr. Neville!

[@kurtadams3021]

Classic soul at its finest ✌🏾

[@laurahatzes6964]

Great reaction. Definitely explore more of this great performer.

[@francesmarinapatarangawhik4702]

Oh my it has been a long time listening to, Aaron Neville, his voice is unique. I love his songs.☝️🤓love the reaction 🤩

[@amforeman60]

The Neville Brothers, New Orleans, LA I love! Aaron I love love! Saw him in concert before he passed away. I love his Grand Tour album. My 2 favorites are These Foolish Things and a song Bob Dylan wrote, Don’t Fall apart on me tonight. This Cajun Girl thinks you would love them!

[@kevinkimbrough8010]

Classic. I have never heard another singer with such a unique, melodic sound. Also, sanged in the band with his brothers ...The Neville Brothers. Emphasis on the first syllable...Aaron Ne-vuhl. Great reaction 👏👏👍👍

[@Kat-gx3se]

I was fortunate to see Aaron Neville and the Mighty Mighty Neville Brothers many many times. At one of the smaller venues.......The Galaxy in Santa Ana Calif I met Aaron and the rest of the Nevilles and had them sign their autobiography. Aaron had arms like tree trunks and such a serious face I felt 2 inches tall...he was an intimidating presence. Check out the Neville Brothers........I know you guys will LOVE them. New Orleans Funk at it's best.

[@patsaylor8973]

I loved this as a teenager I played the heck out of it!

[@loriezuberka4569]

this song was done by many other artists but no one does it like Aaron and your reaction just proved it

[@ShadowHawk4219]

One of the best of '67. My mom wore this out, with scratches and all. Now i have it on CD with crystal clear sound. Check out his brother Ivan Neville with " Falling Out Of Love". Totally different sound from this, but i think you will like it. It was the opening song in the John Ritter comedy film Skin Deep, loved that movie, John was so funny.

[@mikecaetano]

Nice! Really nice! The golden voice from the golden age of soulful male singers. 1966. George Davis and Lee Diamond wrote the song. Aaron Neville kept it real. He formed a performing group with his brothers in the seventies and Mardi Gras was never the same. Fire! The Neville Brothers "Brother John / Iko Iko" (1981) makes me hungry for gumbo, big time. But for more gold like "Tell It Like It Is" from the sixties, check out some of these: Maurice Williams "Stay" (1960), Ben E. King "Stand by Me" (1961), The Drifters "Some Kind of Wonderful" (1962), The Impressions "It's All Right" (1963), The Righteous Brothers "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" (1964), Smokey Robinson "Ooo Baby Baby" (1965), The Temptations "My Girl" (1965), Marvin Gaye "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)" (1966), Otis Redding "Try A Little Tenderness" (1966), Percy Sledge "When A Man Loves A Woman" (1966), Billy Stewart "Sitting In The Park" (1966), Brenton Wood "I Like The Way You Love Me" (1966), Jackie Wilson "(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher" (1967), The Four Tops "Bernadette" (1967), Clarence Carter "Slip Away" (1967) ...

[@johngraham3057]

The voice of an angel in the body of a linebacker.

[@Constance8722]

What a song! So unforgettable. Thank you for your reaction.

[@loriemills8337]

I love Aron Neville. Him & Linda ronstad " I don't know much" is absolutely beautiful

[@kopro-uma1258]

He tells it like it is.....another great song from a great singer

[@40somethingfire12]

OMG this is MY JAM! And yes, check out "I Don't Know Much" with Linda Rondstadt.

[@terrylynnheinrich8777]

Awesome voice..I love Aaron Neville!

[@russelbarnes7235]

The Neville brothers are legendary. Aaron and Linda Ronstadt are definitely worth a listen. Enjoyed seeing your "eyes water". Love you two, too much. You have got to react to the Righteous Bros. You've lost that loving Feeling and Soul Inspiration are my suggestions for them. Of you like vocals, don't wait, or hesitate Righteous Bros.,right away. Peace.

[@jsemancik1]

you're re action to this song is so true, yeah bro we had some great songs and singers in the 60's

[@beedeegee9374]

Aaron and his brothers, The Neville Brothers, are New Orleans music royalty! You should listen to Aaron’s AVE MARIA, it will touch your souls.

[@twisprivergrainmill803]

This is nothing but Righteous!!

[@lovcymaribeth4081]

I remember when this song came out. Such a love song and all girls wished for a man like this! Heart touching and heart breaking. No play, teal love !😍

[@francesmarinapatarangawhik4702]

Hi guys, Aaron Neville is one of my favorite singers...🥰☝️☝️🤓

[@mustangbill65]

More Aaron..Ten commandments of love..and many more also his duets with Linda Ronstat!!! He is from New Orleans just like me..I grew up on his music..

[@fredyoung9384]

I love seeing pure emotions from music. Thank you Shawn.

[@vernonrutherford458]

You guys are taking me back....I was lil kid, but my family played these songs on the regular. THANK YOU.

[@lydmarl.475]

This my all time favorite souks singer, great choice! He has some amazing X-mas classics under his belt. He is called the voice of an angel! Saw him last 2 years ago for the second time, the guy gets better with age and the vocals; believe he is now 80 plus. Woww you are crying???! I grew up on this, always love him, yes Aaron, Aaron, Aaron!! He is from a musical family, so missing seeing him in concert!! Try the next one “Everybody plays the fool”.

[@brendatrump5163]

His brother Ivan has a song that I've loved all my life called, "Not just another girl". It was in an 80's movie called "My Stepmother is an Alien"

[@pilesovinyl]

THIS IS A CLASSIC, C-L-A-S-S-I-C!

[@Vicky49610]

I just love you two so much! And I could listen to Aaron sing every single minute-an amazing voice.

[@sereneamani1713]

Love this from way back in the day. His last name is pronounced with the sound more like "level"

[@gramzkpopii84]

I’ve watched a lot of your videos and the one thing that finally got me to subscribe was Shawn’s raw emotions. Keep doing what you’re doing love watching you 👍💞

[@judyhinton7131]

I have all his albums!! I love his voice! It’s like an instrument!!

[@CatDad6392]

I’ve loved this song ever since I was a small child when it first was released in 1966

[@theresamcdonald1943]

oh you bet that is my honey of all time, got all his music and a member of his fan club. love you dear Aaron. Shawn and Mel brace yourselves. put your shoes on. woooooo e.t.

[@flomurdock]

Thanks so much for reacting to Aaron - especially this. It was a big hit a long time ago, and a lot of people seem to have forgotten about it. He's great, all his more recent stuff with his brothers, and other duets - but this one is so good I hate to see it forgotten. And if no one told you his name is Neville, rhymes with devil.
