I absolutely love this song. So sad that Dan passed away from a AIDS related brain tumor. That dreaded disease took way too many too soon. RIP Dan.
Teensey...when did he died?
@@michaelasay8587 He died on March 22, 1994, at his Westport, Connecticut, home from an AIDS-related brain tumor. A closeted gay man, he was diagnosed with HIV in the late 1980s. He kept his HIV status a secret and supposedly did not seek treatment.
@@Straydogger Good info,didn't know this,very good song tho.RIP:Dan Hartman.
The Caucasian man is the singer. The clips of the band is from a movie "Streets of Fire," and the song is on the soundtrack. He was a really good singer and artist. Sadly he passed away too soon.
I just realized he was the singer of Relight My Fire in the 70’s a few months back…I’m a child from the 70’s so I can dream about you is what I was hearing at about 9years old
In the video the girl was watching, that was an actor named Stoney Jackson. And 3 guys backing him up
It was a promo clip for the film Streets of Fire....the band in the movie included Stoney Jackson and Robert Townsend!
I always thought the group from the movie sang this
@@jennypenny Also lead vocals on Edgar Winter Groups big hit Free Ride.
A great upbeat song. Hartman wrote this for the 1984 movie Streets of Fire, where it was performed by the fictional group The Sorels, with the actor Stoney Jackson playing their lead singer, Bird (they do a sweet moonwalk at the line "moving sidewalks" when they perform it in the movie). The real voice behind the version used in the film was Winston Ford, but Hartman's version was the one used on the soundtrack and released as a single. The song also appeared on Hartman's album I Can Dream About You
Source: Songfacts
But that's Dan Hartman's voice on this video. I love his voice! I'm glad he sang it, since he wrote it. His voice should have been used in the movie, also.
Actually, he wrote it for Hall and Oats but the song didn't make it into their album in time so he decided to record it himself.
@@DigitalBridge. Daryl Hall told that story during a live concert, right before playing their version of the song, dedicating it to his memory
@@jessiem276truth
You can always tell when Asia likes a song, she might not be grooving, but her smile is her tell and it's a beautiful smile!
I love how she concentrates hard on the video. At first I didn't know what to think. :)
Dan Hartman had a big hit as lead singer for the Edgar Winter group on their song "Free Ride". Then he had some huge classic disco songs, "Instant Replay" and "Vertigo/Relight My Fire" which featured Loleatta Holloway.
I just wrote about Relight My Fire/Vertigo with Loleatta Holloway and Edgar Winter Group as well 😃. I hope someone reacts to Relight My Fire soon; what an epic dance floor song.
Asia & BJ, his "Instant Replay" was a #1 hit on the US Dance chart!
For some reason in the movie "Streets of Fire" they portrayed the song to be performed by the group on stage which are clips taken from the actual movie. For the longest time I always thought it was those dudes that sang it. Till this day I still wonder why they did that.
Fun fact! he played bass and wrote songs in Edgar Winter's band. You can see him in the Frankenstein video.
The whole soundtrack from Streets of Fire (actually, the movie was classic back in the 80's) is really good. I haven't seen anybody reacting to another great song from the album: Tonight is what it means to be young, yet.
You should.
Ellen Aim & The Attackers. Fabulous Movie. Excellent Songs on the soundtrack.
@@lindarenee2198 One of my all-time favorites. I just watched it again not long ago after having not seen it in a long time and still had the same "magical" feel to it. There are some interesting articles about S of F, with Walter Hill et al discussing why it was a box office "flop" and how they said that Michael Pare was the wrong actor to cast as the lead. I don't know what movie they were watching but I can't see anyone else playing that role as well as he did; same with Eddie and The Cruisers.
@@mikek5958 100% agree. Nobody else could have played that role. Even Rick Moranis' part was cast right. But don't go by me , I love all of this movie.
Agreed about Tonight is What It Means To Be Young. It's on my jogging playlist. Same for Nowhere Fast.
Most of the music for that movie is credited to a group called "Fire Inc". Which was a group of musicians put together by Jim Steinman. He also wrote most of the music for the movie. Jim Steinman is probably best known as the guy who played the piano and wrote the music for Meat Loaf - Bat Out of Hell.
You can tell she loves that song
The 80’s was so much fun, we just didn’t realize how much at the time. I miss it. This is one of my favorite songs from childhood all the way to today. I was eight when it was released in 84’. It never gets old for me. RIP Daniel Earl Hartman.❤
Streets of Fire (1984) was directed by Walter Hill, who also directed 48 hours and The Warriors. It has one of the best 80s soundtracks. (One of my top five fave movie and soundtracks). You should absolutely include this on your movie-watching channel, you won’t be disappointed.
The woman in the video is an actress known for her role in “just one of the guys” where she dresses like a teenage boy and attends a different high school than she does as her original identity. 80’s classic film. Check it out, guys.
This is one of my favorite 80's songs. Such a feel-good song with great, soulful vocals by Dan Hartman (RIP).
The girl in this video was an actress. She was in a very funny movie where she pretended to be a boy. She dated singer Bruce Springsteen for a long time in real life.
I was 10 when this song came out.. my mum had it on vinyl..the 80s rocked
Dan Hartman was a solo act and a prolific songwriter. Before he went solo, he was playing bass for the Edgar Winter Group. Dan wrote and sang lead on their hit "Free Ride."
WOW! didn't know that.
The object of his affection in this video is Joyce Hyser. She played the main character in a pretty funny 80's movie titled Just One Of The Guys. It's worth a look.
The quartet featured on the tv in the bar was a fictional R&B group in the film "Streets of Fire". In the movie they put on concerts in the nightclub which is the film's plot setting. One of the songs they "perform" was Dan Hartman's "I Can Dream About You". Though the movie was a box office flop, Hartman's single actually charted.
Hartman was never married and had no children. He died on March 22, 1994, at his Westport, Connecticut, home from an AIDS-related brain tumor. A closeted gay man, he was diagnosed with HIV in the late 1980s. He kept his HIV status a secret and supposedly did not seek treatment, even after friend and intermittent collaborator Holly Johnson (formerly of the band Frankie Goes to Hollywood) announced his own HIV status in 1991 His remains were cremated; he was survived by both parents, his brother Dave, and sister Kathy. RIP, Dan.
Love this song. Saw him do this one on an old Showtime at the Apollo and he just nailed it. The footage on TV is from a movie.
Guy in the bar is Dan Hartman. Concert footage is from the movie Streets of Fire.
The other commentors got it right on this song's story. Dan Hartman also worked on James Brown's 1986 album, "Gravity," which I own and love. He produced, co-wrote every song, did backing vocals, and played several instruments. A multi-talented man.
James Brown's last top 10 song, "Living in America", was cowritten and co-produced by Dan Hartman.
Nice! Dan Hartman writes great dance tracks. Living in America (for James Brown), Free Ride (for Edgar Winter Group), Vertigo/Relight My Fire, Instant Replay. The film "Streets of Fire" (shown in the video) is also a great idea for your movie reaction channel.
One of My All-time Favorite songs.. ❤️
One of 1984 signature songs.
He Originally wrote it for hall and Oates for there new album but they had already completed it so it wasn't used,they later covered it on a later album ...worth listening to :)
Just bought a used Hall &Oates Cd, Our Kind of Soul and found this song on it.
Mostly covers but a very good Cd.
This was from the soundtrack of a movie called Streets of fire back in the day
My god you have a such a WONDERFUL smile god bless you
This song represents the best decade in such a great way. 80s forever!
Dan Hartman was so talented. He sadly passed away from AIDS back in the late 80’s or early 90’s.
Dan Hartman was a talented young man that was taken too soon. His first real break was when he joined Edgar Winter's Band in which he played bass on the song you've reacted to "Frankenstein". Dan did a lot of production for that band and for Edgar's brother, Johnny. Dan later went on to do one of, if not my favorite dance songs "Relight My Fire" which was a huge hit, along with "Love Sensation" which he wrote and produced for the great singer Loletta Holloway. Both of which I far prefer to this, although good, cut.
I like instant replay too.
Pittsburgh Pa. Native Dan Hartman was also a member of The Edgar Winter Band and he also wrote the Song "LIVIN' IN AMERICA' for "JAMES BROWN". .
Totally a Hall and Oates vibe to it.
Dan Hartman wrote the song with Hall and Oates in mind.
Dan Hartman as far as I know had one more late 70s hit called "Instant Replay" a dance classic...
Tthe Sorels were the group playing on the TV. This song was actually sung by Dan Hartman who in the bartender in this video.I recall seeing this on MTV when the song was released and i had no idea who actually sang the song.
That record player back in the 60s 70s and 80s that was the jukebox you put a quarter in there and you got to listen to any song you wanted
One of the actors portraying the doo-wop group that sing the song in the movie was Robert Townsend, who starred in, cowrote, and directed The Five Heartbeats, so that makes sense your mind went there!
That is from the movie Streets of Fire from 1984 starring Diane Lane. The group singing is a scene from the movie, singer is actually Dan Hartman at the bar. He died of an AIDS related disease in 1994 in Westport, CT. at the age of 44.
The ones in the movie "Streets of Fire" is a group called "The Sorells" lipsyncing Dan Hartman's I can dream about you. Their dance choreography on stage was awesome!
What a fine, fine, fine groove that is. Super sweet pop song. Sounds great loud in a bar.
smooth groovy cut......I was 13 when this hit. Still dig it
In my mind, she puts the song on the jukebox (the black and white footage) the bartender (Dan, the white guy) sings it in his dreams. So, the whole thing is a dream sequence, basically. I heard he originally wrote it for Hall and Oates but they passed on it.
The guys performing is a clip from the movie in which they performed the song.The guy actually singing is Dan Hartman
great 80s tune here! ♥
great song. love the 70s, 80s & 90s.
Dan was originally in The Edgar Winter Group ,he was the bass player and songwriter of FREE RIDE and wrote other songs with the band ..He made a huge disco hit called INSTANT REPLAY ..
That's Dan Hartman behind the bar. He's the one who sang. He wrote this song. R.I.P. D.H. The black group on the tv screen was just for the music video. Those guys on the tv screen are actors. One of them was Robert Townsend Jr who directed the Five Heartbeats the movie. You guys should check that out too, The Five Heartbeats movie on your movie reaction channel. The Five Heartbeats is similar to the Temptations, The O'jays etc.
Awesome song great lyrics and super cool groovin guitar riffs
one of my top 5 favorite songs of all time
You definitely have to react to the Movie Streets of Fire. One of my all time favourites with an awesome soundtrack. I had a massive crush on Diane Lane after seeing this movie for the first time 😊❤️😍
I STILL have a massive crush on her; total babe.
@@mikek5958 yep she certainly is 😊
I loved this song grew up in the 80’s great music back then
The Woman in the Video was Joyce Hyser. She Starred in the 1985 Movie "just one of the Guys".
This song is from the movie Streets of Fire you guys wanna watch that and react to it Dan Hartman departs at the road it and then the movie these guys singing on stage Robert Townsend ,Stoney Jackson, Micheletti Williamson ,and Grand Bush. This is a great movie you should react to it
This came out around the time my parents got cable tv and I got MTV, I remember MTV playing it what seemed like 100 times a day
It's Dan Hartman and the song is from the movie "STREETS OF FIRE"

There is a video version of this song where you only see the black group performing...Back in the day that really confused everybody when people found out that it was a white guy singing ( Dan Hartman )...Dan really did sing with a lot of soul...For some reason where I lived in the south ( Virginia - on the Carolina border )...Whenever the video was on TV it was always the version of the fictional black group from the movie...Then later on we started to see the video with Dan Hartman in it.
Yes I remember I guess it was done for marketing purposes a bait and switch move I did kniw him from Edgar Winter Group but never made the connection
@@Darius58x Yes indeed...You are right.
Dan Hartman sang it...the guys on stage are a group in the old movie Streets of Fire
I totally forgot about this song, I’m pretty sure it’s from the 80’s and in many movie soundtracks
Check out "Free Ride" Edgar Winter, the song Dan Hartman was made to sing! The song that sums up the '70's'
The TV clip is from Streets of Fire, Dan's (the bartender) song was part of the movie's soundtrack.
Asia & BJ its Dan Hartman singing the song. The bartender in the video. The men in the video are from the movie. Streets of Fire.
Per Songfacts Hartman wrote this for the 1984 movie Streets of Fire, where it was performed by the fictional group The Sorels, with the actor Stoney Jackson playing their lead singer, Bird (they do a sweet moonwalk at the line "moving sidewalks" when they perform it in the movie). The real voice behind the version used in the film was Winston Ford, but Hartman's version was the one used on the soundtrack and released as a single. The song also appeared on Hartman's album I Can Dream About You.
The "movie" in the background is a movie. Dan Hartman was soulful enough for a black man to sing this and be believable. The movie is " Eddie and t😊he cruisers"
This song is featured in streets of fire. It’s an excellent movie, watch it sometimes. The movie is like a rock & roll fantasy with a damn good cast and story line.
I loved this song I used to have a crush on Dan Hartman I was 14 years old ❤
I've read some of the comments and as other people have pointed out Dan was a Hired hand bass player for the Edgar Winter group. There is a kick-ass killer live video of the Edgar Winter band playing the song Free Ride... Cuz every time Dan opens the song playing the six string electric guitar and then as it kicks in he switches over to a four string bass guitar and sings the lead vocal. The guitar he's playing is a double neck so six string guitar and a 4-string bass but it's amazing to watch. And his vocals were great.
The song is from a movie called Streets of Fire and that's the video playing on the screen. The bartender is Dan Hartman.
YO when he sings MOVIN SIDEWLKS.......I would moonwalk on thata part @ the school dances (JR. High).....Chiclks dug it..
This song was written and performed by Dan Hartman. It was written for a movie called "Streets of Fire:(1984) and the music video was made not only tto promote the song but the movie as well..The clips of the singing group singing and dancing on stage are actual clips from the film."Streets of Fire" . The movie was trying to capitalize on the music video craze at the time made popular by music channels such MTV(which was 3 years old at the time) and VH-1. Movie studios used music videos to help market and promote their movies. I don't think this is the original music video of this song. I think this particular video was remade in the early 90s but they still used clips from the movie.
He wrote and sang lead on the Edgar Winter Group song "Free Ride"
You two have seen Dan Hartman before - he played bass guitar with the Edgar Winter Group, amongst many others. Check out “ Frankenstein”.
The story goes that a planned music video for this song was made using footage of The Sorels performing it in " Streets of Fire", and it used this version sung by lead singer Winston Ford. When Dan Hartman got wind of this, he put a stop to it, as his contract stipulated that any version released commercially or for promotional purposes had to have his voice on it. Hartman recorded a new vocal for the video that replaced the one recorded by Winston Ford. A new video with Hartman lip-syncing was later made for the song. The talented artist Winston Ford himself tragically died young at the age of 55 in a car accident in 2007
This song is from the 1984 movie Streets of Fire. A great movie to add to your movie watching list. It stars Michael Paré who also stars in a musical movie Eddie and the Cruisers 1983.
2 of the tv singers are Robert Townsend and Mylkelti Williamson.
You're not alone Asia! The other video that was shown on MTV was just the act from the movie. Many folks (me included), thought the group sang this song. I was shocked when I found out it was a white guy!
It's from a great movie from the 80's called Streets Of Fire with songs written by the late great Jim Steinman of Meatloaf fame. This is my favourite movie soundtrack .
hidden gem, you guys always play my playlist!
Wife here...Great Song!!..from a cool movie..., my Husband Loves the cars in this movie..This song still gets alot of radio play..It was a HUGE hit..Thanks guys!!❤
Fan Hartman is the singer of the soundtrack. However, the group in the movie were lip singing in the movie Streets of Fire.
My favorite song from the summer of 1984...
Asia, you didn't know what a juke box was? I'm so old 🤣
Benny Mardones, into the night, is voice is amazing
A great song!
Asia had a grin you have to love.
Can’t believe y’all haven’t heard of Dan Hartman. These youngsters 😂😂
Grew up on these classics
🎶💗🎶 Heart of the beat,.. 💃👏💃👏💃👏💃
I can see the two of you in the 80's listing to this song.
Damn, i LOVED this song. Movie first turned me on to it.
As people mentioned the movie streets of fire the song was used in ,cool movie cashing in on the classic early mtv generation and the popularity of the 50s look and music that came back into style in the mid 80s
He was an amazing writer and singer. Play more songs by him on here.
Check out Dan's (Autumn ) on the Edgar Winter album "they only come out at night"
Even though everyone knew Dan Hartman sang the song, not many people really knew what he looked like. Matter of fact, when the song's video debuted on MTV in the mid 80s, they showed the movie with the black group performing the song and everyone, including myself, thought that they were the actual artist. I bet a lot of people never knew it was a white guy that sang it. I didn't know for years!
Asia, BJ, this is from a movie, Streets of Fire, Diane Laine, Willem Dafoe(from Platoon, Spider Man, he's goblin),...Michael Pare`(Philadelphia Experiment, Bad Moon),..the scene of the performers on stage, is from the movie, Diane Lane(think she was lip syncing?), comes out singing too, just before the villainous Dafoe crashes the scene, it's not the best movie, but the soundtrack is awesome, Sorcerer, a song written by Stevie Nicks is on there, Marilyn Martin sings it, but I like Stevie singing it more,..so love in the 80's, there was a lot of throw back to the way, the style of the "doo wap" days of music, and you see here the group on stage(Robert Townsend, believe he's the one on the end dancing, didn't know who he was at the time, then he started doing this crazy show on HBO, too funny, plus a crazy movie he single handedly financed off of credit cards to make, Hollywood wouldn't finance it, you know I guess when he pitched to them,.Hollywood Shuffle,..you never know when you see someone just starting out, how or when they're gonna blow up, he just had this small role, doing a dance routine in a movie 🎬)..dancing, fantastic dance moves, like the Temptations, The Spinners,..and that wonderful song by Dan, it hit the charts, did better than the movie it was featured in, ..and when I saw the movie, that concert scene to me was the height of the movie,..do keep going, check out The whole soundtrack,..check out Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young,..Rory Dodd Holly Sherwood,...Godspeed, Peace ✌
Streets of Fire movie.....Dan Hartman originally wrote this song for Hall and Oats
He has range 😊
Love this song! The bartender in the video is Dan Hartman and the group on the TV screen is a fictional singing group from the movie "Streets Of Fire". This song was in the movie. Dan was in the Edgar Winter band and wrote the song "Free Ride".
The white dude is the real singer, but the scene of the black singers is from a movie called "Streets of Fire" where it's the black singers singing the song. You should check out the movie. It has a lot of music in it and action as well. The black singers are actors: Robert Townsend, Stoney Jackson, and Mykelti Williamson. You might know Mykelti from "Forrest Gump."
My first wife and I loved this song...
