Asia & BJ, you'll love their "Shambala", "Eli's Comin' " and "One"!!!! They were a hit machine in the 70s!!
You basically had three lead singers in this group. The harmonies are otherworldly. So good!
Those singers would fall flat without that talented band behind them. It's not just the music, not just the lyrics,it's when you put them together and how smoothly they blend together that makes them so iconic
@@TonyM1961 Absolutely.
My favorite thing about this song is how it builds with each verse, starting off super pared-down with just one low-key voice and a single guitar with a little percussion. By the end, everyone is just wailing and jamming!!! So cool!
Man oh man, takes me back to being a teenager in the 70’s with an illegal smile vibing to this song 😎
Brings me back too.
@Jeff Flaherty yes sir, John Prine is a rabbit hole worthy of going down😎
Don't analyze the lyrics, just listen to the vocals. Talk about heaven on earth!
Volume ends up on 10 every time...
This is one of those songs you wish would never end.
Guaranteed just turn it up!!! Many great songs by 3 Dog Night... This is the best!!!
Between 1969-1974 no group had more top 10 hits, Sold more Albums, also Sold More Concert tickets than Three Dog Night! Much Love from Oregon, Chuy ☮️🫶🏼🤙🏽👍🏽😎🎼🎸🎤
I always loved the song. Born in OK..Been to England, love the Beatles..When my dad and stepmother moved to Spain..so finally I went there...Las Islas Canarias..las mujeres son bonitas. That's my anthem!
To me, thins song is about enjoying where you're at and living in the moment.
woooow to the point FANTASTIC
Yeah, it’s kinda like CSN “Love the One You’re With”
I always thought a “three dog night” meant it was an extra cold night, hence sleeping with three dogs to stay warm.
This group is ridiculously talented!
I remeber when this came out. Love just about everthing by them. They were the top band for 5 years in a row beating out the Beatles. If you get the chance give "Eli's Coming" a listen the live version. Their vocals will blow you away.
This is another great song from Hoyt Axton, and it's a great cover by Three Dog Night. For me it says that wherever you are is a good place to be, and so are the places you've never been. Life is an adventure to look forward to.
It was composed by Hoyt Axton- an actor and musician. he was from Oklahoma. He was touring w/ 3 DN at the time. He also wrote, "Joy to the world", also done by 3 DN. :P
“Joy to the World.” Yes, it did bring a lot of joy! I was eight when it came out and it was such a fun song for kids to sing. Both songs are great from start to finish.
@@terri2494 I was about that age, too. 1970. The LP, "Naturally". It was one of the 1st LPs I ever owned(thanks to a brother). Awesome stuff!
I never knew that.....so cool.
He also caused havoc in a small town bringing in a gremlin! 🤣
@@jonathanmoon86 Right! Love that movie. 🤣
Three Dog Night is an American-Irish rock band from the 60's-70's. This band had a lot of energy. They had 3 guys with great voices that could all sing lead vocals. Hope you check out some more of their music. Some other great songs are "One", "Just An Old fashioned Love Song", Eli's Coming", Shambala", "Mama Told Me Not To Come", "Joy To The World", Try A Little Tenderness", "Easy To Be Hard", "The Show Must Go On" etc.
Truly one of the coolest songs ever written.
Hoyt Axton ,the songwriter is from Oklahoma ..He wrote ''Joy To The World''' also that they made famous as well ...
When I was 11 my best friend had only this 45! We played it over & over! Thanks for the memories!❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love this song! It's my favorite by Three Dog Night. Fantastic song!!
Wife here..These guys were HUGE back in the day.. This is my FAVORITE Three Dog Night song..!!! ..Ms.Asia.., you NAILED the meaning of this.."Heaven on Earth"..Very well stated BJ..Thank you for the insightful and intelligent insight into this song!!!
That reminds me of John Denver’s “Country Roads.” I lived in Virginia for about twenty five years and when he sang “Almost heaven, West Virginia” I would think, “Yeah, because you’re almost to Virginia.” 😁
“Eli’s Coming”, live 1975 please.❤️ (Their BBC 1972 concert is also great.)
Yes yes yes, so good!
Per Wikipedia the lyrics consist of the narrator ruminating about overseas locales that he has never visited, but about which he feels he has some proxy experience, primarily via the music but also due to other presumed highlights found there. He loosely compares his own actual travels to these more worldly spots.
In the final verse, he observes that while he has "never been to heaven", he has "been to Oklahoma", where he was told he was born, thus implying a kinship between the two places. Hoyt Axton, who was born in Oklahoma, explained that he originally wrote, "...in Oklahoma, born in a coma...." However, it was considered inappropriate; thus, the lyrics were changed to "not Arizona".
Written by Hoyt Axton.
Just arrived, saw the seven songs you've posted. Clicked on this so damn fast. Three Dog Night were great, badass talent. That harmony for one thing!
the great Hoyt axton wrote this song....Hoyt was born in Oklahoma...👍
I was a roadie back in the day and loved working with these guys. Cory Wells was a huge loss. I always felt he was saying just because haven't been to a certain place doesn't mean that you can't appreciate the culture anyway. If your observant you can enjoy talent and beauty from a place even if you haven't gotten to witness it firsthand.
I was raised in NEEDLES CA. where 120+ temps in summer
cause travelers to over heat and Vegas is 120 miles away..
hence they broke down in little town of Needles on their way to Vegas...
and this song was very popular in our stage band in the 70's lol
Yeah... got a flat tire in Needles... but on the way HOME from Vegas and broke!
@@lyriasfaves but have you ever been to Spain LOL
Nope, never been to Spain!
Hoyt Axton wrote this song and another song covered by Three Dog Night to great success....Joy to the World.
This song was written by country star Hoyt Axton. He also wrote their number one song Joy to the World, the NoNo song for Ringo Star, and tunes for Steppinwolf, Elvis Presley, and more...
Elvis did a killer live version of this song. He didn't have as many hits in the 70s but he took songs like this, 'My Way' (written for Frank Sinatra) and others and made them his own live. And the mother of the guy who wrote this song (Hoyt Axton, who really was born in OK) wrote 'Heartbreak Hotel' for Elvis in the 50s. Circle of music life lol.
Been looking for this comment! Elvis version of this song is my fav.. He kills it and made it his own
@@chanellegale914 Yes! He really did. This and 'My Way'. I like Sinatra but Elvis' version is far superior and more heartfelt.
This song has always resonated with me because my father was born and grew up in Oklahoma. I'm from Chicago (my father came here in his early twenties) but we used to go there every year on vacation to stay with my aunt and uncle from the time I was a baby until I turned 18. I have fond memories of that time. I agree you need to do "Eli's Coming" and I also love "An Old Fashioned Love Song".
I remember when this one came out. I was in grammar school and was an instant favorite of mine! I liked it so much. I loved the lyrics, but never gave any real thought to their meaning, to this day up until now. I think you two are spot on. Thanks for doing the brain work for me. 😊
Never been to England but I kind of like the Beatles me too!
Great band with huge hits, in concert at Irvine, CA. soon
High times in the 70's! We had the best music!
Elvis did the best cover of this song! It's my fav version honestly he absolutely killed it 🔥 Have it on repeat
I love Three Dog Night, ever since I was in Grade School, and I love this song, but you really need to hear Elvis's live performance of it in 1972. It's magnificent!!
Went to see these guys twice in concert. They were outstanding live. Don't overthink the song. Just enjoy a great song that will always put a smile on your face.
Yea with this old stuff it's more about how talented them bands were and how awesome they sound vocaly and musicaly. It truly was a golden time to be in. Wish everyone could have been there
This is definitely one of my favorite Three Dog Nights songs, this makes me want to get a list of all of their hits and play them again
I would pass a BILLION DOLLARS EASY to be able to go back to 1970 And be a 70s Brat AGAIN
Money cant by you REAL Happy ness ; My Youth in the 70s did , My family was close, I lived in Kodiak Alaska By a very pretty lake,I Fished rain bow trout and Doly vardoin often ,The seafood was OUT STANDING. My mom was a loving mom and great cook .God blessed me so good. . The70s were packed with FANTASTIC Music like this . And so many great bands came out in the 70s, Just a great decade ..
As to how they got their name; Aboriginal Australians, in the Australian Outback, explained that on cold nights they would customarily sleep while embracing a dingo, a native species of wild dog. On colder nights they would sleep with two dogs and, if the night were freezing, it was a "three dog night". They are from the U.S......the west coast, I think.
Mama told me , Eli's Coming , Good Feeling 1957 , The Show Must Go On ,,,, THREE DOG NIGHT has a bunch of cool tunes !!!!!
One of the greatest groups for about 8 years. 3 great singers, songwriters, band members, the whole ball of wax. Cory Welles lead killed the cover of Try a Little Tenderness by Otis Redding. Worth checking out.
Just an all out harmony driven vocal onslaught to finish. Forgot how many strong vocals they had including background singers - whoa!
One of my favs! You can't go wrong with Three Dog Night! Other folks have mentioned that this was written by Hoyt Axton, who is in the songwriter's hall of fame, but his mother, Mae Axton is also in the hall of fame as well. She wrote a lot of hits in Nashville, including co-writing Elvis's Heartbreak Hotel. Also, I think the Hard Rock Casino in Tulsa has the "I've never been to heaven but I've been to Oklahoma" lyrics still above one of the main doors in the lobby.
Next up
‘Eli’s Coming’
Got to see three dog night twice in the early 70s, and they were a hot group at a time and did some great songs this is just one of them
Good Song with Great Harmonies. The Song was written by Hoyt Axton, a very famous Songwriter in his day.
Still have my lp. Naturally and Suitable also. Legend albums. Don't know where they toured back then. Could have went all over the world, easily.
My fav Three Dog Night song....had the album back in 70s TY Appreciate ya'll
One of the best bands ever !!! IMO !!!! 3 Lead Singers in the Band.
Born in Baer county, San Antonio. We moved to Anchorage Alaska when I was 9 months old. I can relate to the song. Both coast but in Omaha 43 years. You 2 always make me smile when you react to music I've known all my life. Keep it up!
Asia & BJ, You guys got to react to Eli's Coming(Live), Shambala(studio version) and One Man Band(studio version)......Three Dog Night like the Beatles were Extremely popular with as many Hit in the 70's as The Beatles!!!! Everyone LOVES Three Dog Night!!! Enjoy the Journey!!!
The Hard Rock in Tulsa has the words "I've never been to Heaven, but I've been to Oklahoma" on the ceiling of the entryway.
Cory Welles took the lead on this, great singer! What made this group even better was 3 great singers. Cory, Chuck Negron and Danny Hutton. Many great songs,! Very successful late 60s to mud 70s. Cory did a phenomenal job covering Try a little Tenderness by Otis Redding. One of my favorite groups ever
Elvis did a cover of this and it was awesome.
This was written by Hoyt Axton. He had a way with words, to make a big understatement. He wrote The No-No Song that Ringo Starr made famous. Peace.
He also wrote Joy to the World, also made famous by Three Dog Night.
I saw Three Dog Night about 30 years ago when I was a youngster. Only onew 3 songs, but heard all the greats! Now I appreciate all the songs!
Love it beautiful people listening to beautiful music 😎
I just love how the dynamics just keep building as the song goes on. If you look it up on Wikipedia, you pretty much got the meaning.
Asia and Bj Elvis Presley sang this also very unique. Brian from Texas
Song was written by Hoyt Axton. He was born in Oklahoma. He was the father in the movie "Gremlins"
They had soooooooooooooooo many hits in the 70s....hard to go wrong with any of them.
Great song by Three Dog Night.
Now for more travel on a more dangerous level. Glenn Frey will learn you the meaning of the SMUGGLERS BLUES. This single was made into an episode of Miami Vice during its first season andce exploded in popularity. The same episode was repeated several times and introduced Michael Mann to an audience made for modern tomes in the 198o's. But the video is self-explanatory. Wrapped around a great song watch and learn the lesson of the perilous world of the SMUGGLERS BLUES.
Elvis did a great cover of this classic. Love this version as well. Written by the great Hoyt Axton. Great review. Peace!
These guys are professionals,they knew how to put music together a different kind style. But Terrific!!!! First dance to this in the 5th grade
Hi Asia & BJ, Three Dog Night always bring some soulful harmonies to the table & they never disappoint, so please keep on reacting to them!!! I'm here for it!!!
Pieces of April is a good Three Dog Night song
We would listen to Three Dog Night while playing cards at my best friend's (RIP) house and this is one of the songs we stopped and sang along to. It helped that we had tea spiked with Spearmint Schnapps and got loose. LOL
3 Dog Night has so many great songs. A word of advice. Listen to their studio versions instead of live versions. They tend to get silly live & you'll miss the lyrics & how great the songs really are. " Try A Little Tenderness", "One", "Eli's Comin'". Many, many to choose from! They were my 1st concert. I was so bummed cuz they were sick, stoned, & goofing around. But I loved them anyways. As a teenager, I was in love with Chuck Negron, the one with the great long hair & great mustache.
Lead singer Cory Welles knocked it out of the park did the same covering Try a Little Tenderness by Otis Redding. Magnificent performance.
Like a ton of great musicians, Hoyt Axton, who wrote the song, was born in Oklahoma. Being a Texan but spent lots of time for business in OK, It's a pretty great place, for the most part. Kinda like Texas with a short winter, as opposed to 10 days of cold weather.
Exactly "What does it matter" like the lead singer said. There's also a lot of sarcasm here. see Oklahoma or Arizona. I get your postcard reference. I have travelled around the country a bit. I did send postcards back home and saved them. Three Dog Night always a great choice. Have you sampled "Try A Little Tenderness"? They do a great version of Otis classic
Saw them live in 1978, again in 1991, both times AWESOME! this is the music reminds me of my highschool years, so many great memories, and even after all this time, this music is STILL Great. My children and NOW my grandchildren LOVE this music. I love how ya'll get into all kinds of music.!
I think that he is saying that music connects us to places that we've never been. Physically and spiritually.
Deffo road tripper song. I agree with Oklahoma being like heaven because that's my home. B.J. is right, wherever you were born and raised is your slice of heaven. The place you long for if gone for too long. Great vid brother and sister. Rock on.
Elvis Presley covered this song live. Great performance. These guys were the original recording artists. Elvis blew it out of the park with his take on it. Check it out when you can.
Great reaction. Take care.
3 Dog Night was formed in L.A., but the members came from all over the country.
Yes! I am from Texas , an this has been on my road trip playlist for many years. Its great diving across the High Plains at sun rise with this playing.
Thanks for sharing!
Great band! The song was written by Hoyt Axton, you should definitely check out more 3 Dog Night songs and some Hoyt Axton songs as well.
It's hard to find a bad song by Three Dog Night. Try, Joy to the world, it's great.
they've reacted to that one on Apr 22, 2022.
Both songs are by Hoyt axton.
Three Dog Night was one of the biggest groups of the 70s. They had so many Number 1 songs... and it wasn't the content it was the Vocals. They had 3 very very talented Lead Singers. Their music was all about the vocals, harmonies, bluesy soul sound. They have quite a few LIVE performance videos on YT that you should check out. Their performances are EPIC. They were true performers and singers. Shambala, Eli's Coming, lots of good songs. They are from California.
3 Dog Nite is good rabbit hole. Great music from them in late 60's and through the 70's: Celebrate, Out in the Country, Just another love song, Mama told me not to come (kind of a whimsical tune). Great harmonies-3 part harmony is what they were known for.
"Out in the Country" good tune from 3DN
How about a reaction to the great Tony Bennet on his 96th Birthday. Try "I wanna be around" or "Who can I turn too" or"I left my heart in San Francisco" Happy Birthday Mr. Bennet. No duets please, just Tony
I seen them in 1979. And Elvis does this also. Stay well and groovy my friends. TX
I saw Three Dog Night 4 years ago.at a smaller venue in Canton, Ohio. They still got it
Eli's Coming written by the great Laura Nyro RIP is a must listen from TDN. Another of my favorites is Out In The Country.
Love Three Dog Night! Great music my dad listened to when I was a kid🤗✌️
Hoyt Axton wrote this song he is a country music singer song writer it was written about him he was born in Oklahoma
I was able see these guys in person and they were just so smooth and creative back in the day... good to see the younger peeps enjoying the music when music was an event!
I love everything they do. Great band.
Another great song as usual from a special time in music. Asia and Bj are awesome. God Bless.
One of my FAVORITE songs ever!!!
Kids, if you want a deeper rabbit hole
Lead singer was Hoyt Axten
Well, if u really want to hear Chuck Negron from the Group, Three dog night, sing his heart out, then u must listen to the song, Easy to be hard. It will blow u away.
Have always loved this vibe good memories 👵❤️🙏🎶
I hope 50 years from now you guys are listening to this just like most of us from back in the day..TDN are MONSTER composers and their music will last forever I hope...
FYI Three Dog Night came from Los Angeles, CA.
where ever you are, your home.
"Liar" should be next. Live version of this puh-leeze from back in the day that one
I love 3DN! ❤❤❤❤❤
He's trying to say that it doesn't matter where you are as long as you let music be your guide and understand that the people there are the same as you. Oklahoma... Arizona what does it matter?
Anything TDN! Grew up listening to them. Met Chuck Negron about 6 years ago on a 70's themed cruise. Such a great band! Definitely check out Eli's Coming. One of their best!
FYI, In Alaska, it’s so cold, they hav, what they call dog night’s, it’s so cold, U hav 2 sleep W/ a dog, 1-dog, 2-dog, & of course on th coldest, a Three Dog Night, that’s where they got their name 😎
I love Three Dog Night.
