dominika, stop saying "sorry" for having so much joy! your joy is a gift to us, andrei, and yourself. revel in it.
Thank you 💚
Mavis Staples is an American treasure.
My take on this performance is that it is pure Americana. America has always had a creole musical culture.
@@lipby I don't mind at all that The Band's music is called Americana, even though 4 of the 5 members were Canadian.
Cheers from Ontario, where Robbie, Rick, Richard & Garth are originally from.
@CharCanuck14 And the Rolling Stones are basically a blues band from Britain who mastered American music forms. The phrase "rolling stone" itself is a blues idiom.
@@lipby Aaah yes......I remember back in the 60's listening to them do Willie Dixon's "Little Red Rooster".
Look at how popular skiffle was in Britain. Didn't the Beatles start out as a skiffle band?
As well as Pops, and all his children!
This is what music is all about. It speaks straight to your soul. You two make my heart happy.❤
Rick Danko coming in like your drunk uncle bursting through the back door on Christmas morning. You two are adorable together. Hell, I would have married her too, but Andre, she deserves you. Thanks for sharing yourselves with us.
😂👏👏✌️
Rick!!!! 🤹♂️💚
I love all THe Band members, but Rick really touch at my heartstrings, his voice have been described as plaintive and archingly that even the most hardcore Hell's Angel's would tear up. Listen to Rick singing "Stage Freight and especially "It makes no difference", and you will know what I'm talking about.
Glad you enjoyed it. Much love from both of us 💚
Every family needs a drink Happy to be alive drunk Uncle😂..don't have one,? Adopt. 👍
Greatest Americana song ever written by a Canadian.
Helm is actually from Arkansas
@@davidoriggan Levon Helm didn''t write this song, in fact he wrote very few songs. He was a great drummer and singer, but not much of a songwriter, Robbie Robertson wrote this song and most of The Bands songs.
@@hannejeppesen1809 which is why they were so upset with him when he left. That, plus the royalties, which in those days went to the songwriter.
@@zoeslovely7096 According to Barney Hoskyns biography they all made a lot of money, they did get 20 percent of the royalties until 3 of them (except Helm) willingly sold their share to Robbie. The 4 members reunited in the early eighties, under the name The Band, they had to get Robbie's approval to use the name, which he gave, he didn't have to. By the time Robbie left, he was tired of being the caretaker of 3 heroin addicts, he had a wife and 3 small children he wanted to spend more time with. The Band was together for 16 years, more than most bands. Several other musicians, George Harrison and I think Don Henley said it is very hard to keep a band together for 10 years or even less.
@@hannejeppesen1809 well said! I was going to bring up the "babysitting 3 heroin addicts" part and decided against it.
Beautiful song, Beautiful reaction, Beautiful couple..Peace and Love to everyone..
'Respect Yourself' by the Staples is a great and permanently relevant song
Agreed! And probably worth checking out the live version ( from Wattstax if I am not mistaken ).
For sure!
From the Band's farewell concert, The Last Waltz. Martin Scorsese filmed the entire concert. It's worth a watch. The Staples are the perfect compliment to a great song. Mavis takes us to church.
Mavis Staples always reaches my soul with her voice 🤘🤘
Best reaction to this song ever! Another great song from The Last Waltz is "It Makes No Difference" sung by the bass player Rick Danko. He as an incredible and unusual sound.
Brings you to tears.
Thank you 💚
‘It Makes No Difference’ has long been in my shortlist of favourite songs of all time.
Absolutely, it's beautiful.
Check out the Staple Singers' big hit "I'll Take You There".
That whole Last Waltz concert is really something. So many great singers came to celebrate The Band, share their music, and say goodbye. Just wonderful. Thanks for sharing this one. 🙂
A treasure without a doubt!
Cripple Creek is one of my favorite songs from the Band. Incredibly talented musicians. Levon Helm(the drummer) was also in several movies.
Again this song and artists are in that Coffeehouse genres were every note sung or played is intimate like you get in a Coffeehouse. Love the Staple Singers I would love for you guys to react to "Respect Yourself" which brought great fame to them in the 70's and it was their No.1 hit. Marvis Staple the lead singer of the group I consider as one of this best female vocals in music history!!!
Genuine music evokes genuine emotions. 👍👍
I just love you two!! Never apologize for crying to the best music ever made!! A great song, wonderful harmonies. A favorite !!❤
So many great songs from this concert. Check out It Makes No Difference (Danko's voice will make you feel), Helpless (with Neil Young and a special mystery guest), Caravan (with Van Morrison), Forever Young (with Bob Dylan), and I Shall Be Released.
Oh my...we definitely have to check it out. Thank you 💚
I've heard the song for decades and I still react the same as you every time I hear it. It just makes you feel good.
Thinking song is timeless. It’s more than 50 years old and every generation seems to enjoy it.
Haha he said "hey baby, don't cry.." 😅 you're the man
Don't worry about it man, your wife is crying tears of joy. Anyone who can gets tears of joy is a very lucky person.🥰
It's okay to be deeply moved by this soulful music, Domenika. We're there with you.
This song is a great example of the genre of Americana music; a mixture of folk, blues, bluegrass, country and sometimes gospel , as we saw here
Yes and written by a Canadian! 😊❤️🇨🇦
I love this song and I love Dominika's reaction to it. RIP to The Band and thank you to them for the musical gifts they left us.
YES, please check out "The Last Waltz". You will never see a stage full of the greatest music makers from the era, or ever!
This song takes me to the summer of 1968, in the fall I entered high school and the next summer 1969 was Woodstock, ☀️ the music then was so exciting, wished I could go to Woodstock everyone did 😢 Peace✌️ and Love❤️ Gary the 70 year old forever hippie.😊 Loved your reaction I can see the 2 of you at Woodstock, all the great music what fun it would have been!😅
Never apologize for feeling the music like you do ❤️ thank you for keeping the music alive in all of us ❤️
Oh Dominique I feel the same way about this song and I have been listening to it for decades ❤
One of my all time favorites!
Kisses to you I love it too! Your so sweet both of you ❤
The guy playing the double neck guitar is Robbie Robertson. He wrote the song. Later on he put out a solo record with many great songs including one called Sacrificed. Listen to it.
Never say sorry for crying, music is emotion, and a lot of times I have tears in my eyes when I hear a great song and this is a masterpiece
Thus is from the movie 'The Last Waltz', the best concert ever filmed.
Glad you enjoyed this , give yourself the gift of watching the entertainment film. The Bands farewell concert “The Last Waltz “ The Staple Singers have a great song I’ll Take You There. Their harmonies and feel good Gospel is joyful.
If gold could sing it would sound like Mavis
What a lovely, well-put sentiment.
Those 2 keyboards, garth hudson and richard manuel were so friggin talented🤘❤️
One of my all time favorite performances. The Band and The Staples, absolute perfection. Thank you for this wonderful reaction. Peace and blessings to all. ✌🙏🤗
I absolutely love your reactions😊 I've known the song pretty much my whole life never shed a tear all these years and when you cried I cried God bless you ✌️
Much love from both of us 💚
Love you guys so much. I wonder if you even realize how many people you touch with your warmth
Oh, thank you so much 💚
Mavis whispering at the end "Beautiful".
That's the beauty of music. When a powerful song like this can bring you to tears. You don't have to apologize. You have the music in you. Both of you do. Hell I'm 61 and it gets me everytime.
..brings back good memories of driving across the US in the early 70's.
Dominika, your reaction - your BEAUTIFUL honest reaction is just as perfect as this song and performance is! There are moments in music that are transcendent magic for the listener whose heart is open to the magic! We love you both and we are so happy that you appreciate this as much as we have over the years!
Thank you for your kind words 💚
Rick Danko has a good one from The Last Waltz called "It Makes No Difference". Very sad song.
I always say, anytime something moves you to tears. It has to be something worthwhile. Please don’t stop covering these until you’ve done one for each song from the film or everything on the album.
No, you're not alone. It doesn't matter how many times I hear this song, it gets to me every time. Thank you for your beautiful heartfelt reaction! God bless you as well🙏🏻
Wow, thank you. It's refreshing to know it's more of us out there 😀💚
@@MerchantOfAlba Yes, there is! I truly enjoy your reactions and how you care for each other❤
Great reaction...don't apologize at all... this is how most people feel when they experience this band and this song. They were an amazing and so original. The drummer Levon Helm was a special human being who was the definition of what makes a great person and one of the coolest guys God ever put breath in.
Great Choice. Voices were from Angels
You can't lose watch....
The Last Waltz
Its 4 more hours of what you just watched and possibly one of greatest concerts ever recorded ✌️🙂
(Just for the star power alone) Rock Blues Soul all in one magic night !
The best thing about The Band....
They all can play they all can sing....
the concert is a gift it truly is ❤
Beautiful
I love these men and women so much.
This is my favorite version of one of my favorite songs. Cheers from Texas! 🇺🇸🇨🇱🤘🏻😎
My all time fave song by my all time fave band.
Totally understand the emotional reaction to this. It's a sublime performance of a classic song. We've lost a lot of the people in this performance, but the magic they made will live on forever.
Still my favorite reactors. You're so REAL! Thank you for your channel... Really, thank you!
Wow, thank you so much. It means a lot. Much love from both of us 💚
It Makes No Difference. Also amazing.
God Bless you both! One of the greatest songs ever written and this is probably the best performance of it. Peace be with you all.
You 2 are my favorites because you both have remained authentic, and simply: are yourselves
Love and peace from Romania 💚
this performance is fuckin outrageous. Poppa staples sings so goddamn effortlessly yet so forcefully.
It's because everyone is perfectly out of phase with each other. It makes the sound authentic. The Joni Mitchel song "Coyote" from this concert is also special.
When you hear music like this it reaches into your soul
Exactly the right reaction. This song and these musicians are amazing!
The band were so, so underrated. They never received the wider listening audience they deserved
your reaction is right in line with Bob Marley's famous quote, “One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.”
Great choice you 2 beautiful people
When I was 16, in 1970, The Band was my very first rock concert. Great musicians making beautiful music!❤
That's awesome! That's a beautiful memory
This music is fantastic, For a while everybody wanted to sound like the Band.
That was beautiful Thank You
Thanks for listening 😊
A lovely song, that speaks to thirsty souls, with big hearts that love to love people ❤ rest in His Love lovely people. Take a load off...❤😊
Yes, "The Last Waltz" is a film no rock music lover should miss. Another terrific number to react to from the movie is Van Morrison doing, arguably, his finest rendition of the wonderful "Caravan". It's one of his odes to radio/music, and he and the Band bring down the house. (You two are the sweetest couple, and so deserving of each other.❤)
OMG Perfect! Your reaction
This is a very uplifting and emotional performance. Have always loved it!
Nice to see you lifted by it as well!
Love this reaction.......NEVER apologize having a visceral reaction to music! Peace and love from NC, USA.
This performance makes my soul soar.
Beautiful reaction! The power of music is unbelievable!!!!!!!!
Every song from this event is a happening in itself. The Band's performance of 'It Makes No Different; is a personal favorite and something I would love to see you two check out.
You both are a joy to watch. Your appreciation of music is a gift to us watching. Thank you 🙏
This song speaks to so many.
Love it..!. Ty MOA ☘️🇺🇲
You folks are the most endearing, lovely people. It's such a gift to ME to see such sincerity AND joy in this reaction.
The Last Waltz is a treasure of a film. Read a short synopsis of how, why, what before you watch...and watch for Van Morrison...out of so many wonderful performances from great talents who came to perform cause they loved The Band.
This is my favorite reaction with you two LOVE IT LOVE LOVE IT❤️❤️❤️
Your reaction made the song better ❤
Oh, thank you ☺️
The Staples sound is pure Southern church . So many American singers got their start singing in those Baptist churches
Don’t apologize for feeling something so deeply. I’m right there with you. I so love you’re reactions because they are heartfelt.
The Last Waltz is an amazing epic concert/documentary style movie. And this is an epic version of an epic song. After 48yrs of hearing it, it still hits my soul the way it did when it was first heard back in 78'. The Weight is a song that moves and touches your soul to start with. The addition of the Staples in the movie just gave it an amazing wow factor. Mavis Staple still performs. We were fortunate to have seen her the summer before last. She still has her pipes I can tell you. I was too young still to have seen The Band live as I was born in 69' and still 6 yrs from beginning my live concert days. I did see Levon twice and Robbie once. But oh to have seen The Band live would have been incredible. Fate and destiny put those 5 together and they didn't squander it.
Mavis Staples is taking us to church... Got to love the band and the staple singers....
It is such a pleasure to watch two people fully embrace and enjoy some of the greatest music ever made. I was fortunate enough to grow up with all of this music. I was born in the 60s, was a child and young teen in the 70s and a teenager and young adult in the 80s. Those eras produced some of the greatest music ever. To see people who’ve never listen to this music fully appreciate and enjoy this music fills my heart with happiness. Music like this will go on forever because of people like you two. Thank you so much for reacting to and enjoying all the music I was fortunate enough to grow up with. 👏👏👏👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Warm greetings from Romania 💚
Great song, and one of the most iconic concerts ever. Hope you choose more songs from this epic concert to react to. I would suggest The Bands own song It Makes No Difference and performances when The Band played with Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and Joni Michell.
Incredible live tribute to The Band!
One of the greatest collaborations of all time, magical glad you enjoyed🎶🎶🎶
I Had the same reaction when I heard this on the Radio when it first came out, a few decades ago!🥰
Well that’s weird. The song cut off before the end. In the cuts I’ve seen, it continues and then Mavis Staples says something like “that was beautiful”. Anybody else remember that?
Yes she did, they should have left that in and forgotten the drunken 'interview' part lol
What a lovely reaction. I feel the same way every time.
Lovely reaction from lovely people. I absolutely know what you mean that sometimes a song hits you and without realising it, you want to cry and you don't even know why, but you're not sad. Music is something slightly magical that exists in a world of science and data.
If I had to choose between just about anything and music, I would pick music! It takes me back to simpler times, it heals the heart and soothes the soul and there's so many songs that deal with real life which makes music my version of therapy! I would not want to live without it! I love it! Thanks for another great reaction!
The same! Music is much needed to make the world a better place. Love and peace 💚
Watching The Last Waltz will teach you a whole lot about American music history up to when this was filmed in 1976. Definitely a Must watch for any music lover as there are many great guest artist throughout the film, on live stage as well as in the soundstage as this song was filmed in.
Time passes and so do we. The only living member of the Band is keyboardist Garth Hudson and the only living member of The Staple Singers is Mavis. It's an absolute treasure to have these songs and videos to watch.
Robbie Robertson, my native brother 💚 So talented....RIP
The Last Waltz was a documentary capturing The Bands last performance. The list of guest performers is legendary.
❤awesome. Thanks for sharing. The Band are an amazing band.
Saw these guys back in the mid 70's at the Oakland Coliseum and they were great.
Love watching you both. Your reactions are great because you guys just get it. Music touches the soul and can move you to tears. So never apologize for crying
Much love from both of us 💚
Beautiful couple!❤️🤘🏻
