One of the first concerts l went to as a teenager was Leo's..he does have an amazing voice..it was exactly like the records..got most of his albums he had quiet a few hits..love Long Tall Glasses...Moonlighting..Raining in my Heart..The Show Must Go On..Thunder in my Heart..Orchard Road..How Much Love and a personal favourite I Can't Stop Loving You..🇬🇧💕✝️🙏👍👏🎵🎵🇺🇸
With aldue respect day one you have a smile that would have light up the entire state of Texas even when we Texans had that eclipse a couple of days ago!!!🌞
In a recent interview that Rick Beato had with a producer from the Steely Dan Aja album, it was revealed that Steve Gadd did the drumming for 'You Make Me Feel Like Dancing' a few hours before doing the famous drumming for the song Aja in the same studio.
I know this song sounds weird to you DayOne now, but in 1976, going to school, it used to be on the radio as I left home to walk to school, and having this in my head made the journey easier....we never questioned it or thought it was weird, we just had our little parties and danced with it
Angela, you should react to the r&b group, Heatwave. They have two big disco-crossover hits. One is Boogie Nights and the other one is called The Groove Line. You will love both songs.
Leo has a few good songs such as, How Much Love & Long Tall Glasses which is my favorite! This one is also cool, and he does have other songs I can't remember right now! I keep thinking he's Australian, but I think he's actually from the UK! You're playing the radio edit version I believe! Boogie meter 5! See you next week people, whoever you all are! Maybe no one's really out there! 😢😮Bye!
When this song came out In my high school in Southern California most guys found his voice silly but the girls liked it and danced to it so it was pretty popular.
Hi Angela 😊 Great reaction to You Make Me Feel Like Dancing😊👍 I agree with you on the Boogie meter rating of four because it did make you feel like dancing but it didn't quite have the energy to push it up to a five 😊 Have a great day and bye for now 😊👍
She needs to hear Amii Stewards - Kock On Wood. That would sure get a 5 on Angela's dance meter. I checked, and Angela hasn't done any reactions to Knock On Wood.
I thought you'd like it when I suggested it for the theme. It was a great song that has stood the test of time. You were right on with your assessment of 4. Thanks for reacting to it!
One of my favorite Leo Sayer songs is "The Show Must Go On" from 1973. However, for years I had wrongly assumed that the Three Dog Night cover version was actually sung by Leo Sayer, and not by its true lead singer, Chuck Negron. I made the same mistake with The Car's "Drive" song when I wrongly assumed it was sung by Ric Ocasek, and not by its true singer, Benjamin Orr. I also love Sayer's 1977 song, "When I Need You". Its a perfect companion song to America's 1972 song, "I Need You".
Here are just a few of the musicians that played on this song and the album it was off of: Larry Carlton, Ray Parker Jr. - guitar, Steve Gadd - drums, Jeff Porcaro - drums (verse 3 onwards), and Chuck Rainey. These guys were working on a Steely Dan album "The Royal Scam" at the same time. This song was the Grammy Award winner for 1976's Best Rhythm and Blues Song.
Lovely Angela. I once heard a story that in one of Leo Sayer's earliest performances, someone hit him over the head with a chair. No idea if it's true.
Took you a short bit at the beginning to get into it, but then you got it...just like most of us. This song was a little different at the time, BUT So Fun !!
According to Leo Sayer, He got a call one day from Elvis. Elvis had heard Leo's songs on the radio and wanted very much to meet him. This would be Elvis' last day on Earth. Leo Sayer may have been the last person to have spoken to Elvis, perhaps other than his girlfriend.
Since you're talking about disco music, then check out these artists Dr. Buzzers and his original Savannah band," che che lafam" The Miracle's " do it" The Commodore's " Machine Gun" Cheryl Lynn " hot burn" Donna Summers " try me" Ohio Players " flopp or fropp, and love rollercoaster " Abba " dancing queen" Van McCoy " the hustle Trans europe express
Leo Sayer was a talented songwriter, at this time he released a great album called Endless flight which included this song and When I need you. This a really catchy one, great to dance to. I would rate this a 4-Colin Ward
This song was "stolen" from Ray Parker Jr. after a record exec heard Ray playing it on guitar and asked Ray if he'd like to go in and record it (no paperwork mind you). They got Leo Sayer to sing & release it. However, when it came out, Ray was at a record store trying to find his name on the record for hours - it wasn't there, they STOLE his song, he had no money to sue, so he chalked it up as a "lesson learned" to copyright & always get paperwork! Leo felt so bad that he let Ray perform on a few songs on his album.
This brings back a LOT of memories. Glad to see you enjoy it.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe. EVERYBODY!!!
My late, great mother introduced me to this classic. It's always fun to boogie along to.

Leo was an original. He never took himself to seriously, he just went out and had fun performing. He was great live.
In a recent interview that Rick Beato had with a producer from the Steely Dan Aja album, it was revealed that Steve Gadd did the drumming for 'You Make Me Feel Like Dancing' a few hours before doing the famous drumming for the song Aja in the same studio.
1976: "Wow, this song is amazing!"
2024: "Wow, this song is amazing!"
Wow, those were the days.
You must be into the 70s. All my high school songs. This song was so stuck in my head as a teenager
This is one of my absolute favorite songs from that era!
Haven’t heard this since I lost my metal Scooby Doo lunch box with the thermos inside!🤣ah Sweet Mems!
🤔WoW! you must be ancient🤨😏😁
Mine was the Fat Albert metal lunchbox.
Classic 🕺💃🏾🪩
Leo's LONG TALL GLASSES is a lot of fun.
Check out his other two big USA hits from the mid-'70s, the lively "Long Tall Glasses (I Can Dance)" and the #1 ballad "When I Need You."
Roller Skating!

70's magic at it's Best !!! music then was fun and simple .

I love both of those, too!
He is a Brit but moved to Australia.
Ray Parker Junior really wrote that song but his producer or agent gave it to Leo he said he was hurt about it
When this song came out In my high school in Southern California most guys found his voice silly but the girls liked it and danced to it so it was pretty popular.
Hi Angela 😊 Great reaction to You Make Me Feel Like Dancing😊👍 I agree with you on the Boogie meter rating of four because it did make you feel like dancing but it didn't quite have the energy to push it up to a five 😊 Have a great day and bye for now 😊👍
I was 15 when this came out.
Now I'm 63 and still love it!
Do "Fly Robin Fly" by The Silver Convention 1975
It's wonderful dear I do love
Семидесятые в мире музыки ,были самыми лучшими и урожайными .😊 👍🙏🎶
Now you know why being young in the 70's was great and dancing was the norm. Love your channel. 🎶🎤👩🦳👋💜💙
She needs to hear Amii Stewards - Kock On Wood. That would sure get a 5 on Angela's dance meter. I checked, and Angela hasn't done any reactions to Knock On Wood.
I second that suggestion!
Agreed!
Absolutely, LONG TALL GLASSES.
And HOW MUCH LOVE, too. It makes a crazy trying to figure out the answer from some people.
Entertaining song
"Orchard Road" by Leo is a great song, would bring a tear to a glass eye.
I saw him live in my local nightclub when I was a young man he was great.🙂🇬🇧
Leo had some very danceable songs back in the 1970s. Think this was his biggest hit.
Amazing memories was a kid in the 70s love this
❤
Ambrosia...HOLDING ON TO YESTERDAY/ 70s soft rock
I love it when you dance and sing!!❤
The BarKays Holy Ghost 1978 is a most!!!!!!!

Great song, and I agree with you, 4. This has a BeeGee vibe to it.
That was fun. Great song, great reaction. I'm thinking "Got The Love" by Average White Band would be fun also.

Great 70s dance song Peter Brown dance with me
Lovely Angela. I once heard a story that in one of Leo Sayer's earliest performances, someone hit him over the head with a chair. No idea if it's true.
AHHH! 1976/77 sophomore year in HS at a house party! CHEEEEEE!
Hot chocolate was also a great band ,"so you win again" was an epic song by them.
♥
Leo was big in 1970s with his distinctive voice
Another dance song from the 70's well worth listening to is Tina Charles song called I love to love. It got to No1 in the Uk. You will love it.
Try "Long Tall Glasses" by Leo. Pretty funny stuff.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍
Took you a short bit at the beginning to get into it, but then you got it...just like most of us. This song was a little different at the time, BUT So Fun !!
👍👍💯❤️🔥🔥
You probably reacted to Long Tall Glasses!
*GET DOWN TONIGHT* by KC & Sunshine Band ❤❤
I thought this song was a duet with a male and female when I first heard it. To be fair though, I was six years old in '76.
According to Leo Sayer, He got a call one day from Elvis. Elvis had heard Leo's songs on the radio and wanted very much to meet him. This would be Elvis' last day on Earth. Leo Sayer may have been the last person to have spoken to Elvis, perhaps other than his girlfriend.
👏🏻😃
70's suggestion - "Fly Too High' by Janis Ian.
Moonlighting.
Four is a pretty good score.
This is a 5 on my boogie booty meter!
Try Jesamine by The Casuals I think you and your listerners will enjoy .❤
70's suggestion - "Rock Me" by ABBA.

He claims. Doesn't make it true. Which it isn't.
@@Jason.King.at.your.service How can you be so sure?
@@Jason.King.at.your.service But, how can you be so sure?
Then Ray Parker, Jr stole "Ghostbusters" theme song from Huey Lewis and the News (I wanna New Drug). What comes around, goes around.
Huey Lewis made a lot of money from his own song (and maybe Ghostbusters), however, Ray didn't get a penny from the Leo Sayer song.
Leo can sing about dancing but he was not a good dancer. lol
I have never liked this song from day one.
Check out How Much Love by Leo Sayer.
