I'm Canadian and Bryan Adams is one of my biggest canadian pride!!! You would like alot of songs from him like : Run To You, Cuts Like A Knife, Heaven, Somebody, One Night Love Affair, Heat Of The Night, It's Only Love (a song featuring Tina Turner), Thought I'd Died and Gone to Heaven. MORE BRYAN ADAMS PLEASE!!!
I am from Spain, I started listening to his music in 91, and I've become through the years a die-hard fan. Last year I had the chance to watch him in à concert in Cádiz (Spain) and he was even better in live than in the videoclips! It was amazing! Now I know that day will be one of my favourite memories in my life! I could share that night with my girlfriend and I think she became also another Bryan's ardent supporter.
I used to think it was a trilogy until recently the other two songs that go with the storyline is *Somebody* and *One Night Love Affair* which "The Girl" *( Lysette Anthony)* character is not in, but it's applied by "The Boy" character *(Bryan Adams)* longs for her. Check out they intertwine with each other, who knew!!
“Everything I Do, I Do It For You” and “Run To You.” These are my favorites by Bryan Adam’s. The first song is in the movie, Robin Hood, with Kevin Costner.
This song was actually released in 1984, so it is nostalgic for me as well as it takes me straight back to high school (I graduated in 1985). Bryan Adams has a lot of great songs, you really can't go wrong with any of them.
Amber sharing her experiences of her and her mom listening this song with her mom was priceless. I got a bit emotional. You made my day. You guys are awesome.
As a Canadian I have been lucky enough to see Bryan Adams numerous times in concert. He is an amazing live performer, and has a very impressive list of hits that you should definitely check out!
We sadly lost the rock legend that is Dusty Hill today .. Can we see you react to some ZZ Topp in memory of the great man please Tush , La Grange or Sharp Dressed Man ...
Bryan Adams and Tina Turner have a song called, "It's Only Love". It's perfect. Watch a live version because their chemistry is INSANE! PS Y'all are the cutest!
Bryan Adams was nine years old in the Summer of '69. He didn't write the song, but he really sold it as his own. This was a huge hit back in the summer of '85. "Heaven" is a must-hear. It was played at every prom and party back then.
Bryan did write the song the song has nothing to do with the year 1969 at the end of the song he sings the line “Me and my baby in a 69” that should tell you what the 69 in the title is a reference to
Because Adams' biggest hit was the ballad "Everything I Do I Do It For You" a lot of people think that is his style, but this is far more representative. He's a prolific songwriter and is fantastic live, so maybe use a live clip for your next video.
He is also an amazing photographer who I believe has even photographed Queen Elizabeth. His photography has been preserved in several books and articles such as this one in Rolling Stone.

"Heaven" was released long before "Everything........." which featured in the film "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves" almost a decade later.

For me, the "summer of '69" was between my junior and senior years in high school.💯 Smoked weed for the first time in the "summer of '69".🤯 Now I'm 69 years old and still smoking!🤣 I fell in love for the first time in the "summer of '69".😍 Like the song says, "Those were the best days of my life."😁❤✌
Summer of 1969 was with my first ever steady boyfriend, so this is especially meaningful. Thanks for reacting to this one! (And yes, the drive-in was our favorite destination, lol.)
I'm lucky, the same drive-in that we went to as kids in the 60's is still open. About a mile from my house. So my kids and grandkids have all had the drive in experience! Such great memories of going in the station wagon as a kid with my parents, going with friends in high school, then with my first boyfriend, then kids, grandkids, etc. Such fun and great memories. Haven't been in a number of years since the grandkids are grown. Been thinking of going but just haven't gotten around to it. Thanks for reminding me! lol.
This album ("Reckless") was huge for Bryan Adams. There are six singles from this album (some charted better than others): "Summer of 69," "Run To You," "Heaven," "One Night Love Affair," "Somebody," and "It's Only Love." When 60% of your album is good enough to be on the radio, you're doing pretty well...
Bryan is from North Vancouver, I remember him playing at our school in Vancouver at a noon hour concert. The band was Sweeney Todd, but their lead singer couldn't make it so they brought along this scrawny kid named Bryan Adams and he was awesome! That would have been the mid 70's, the same year we had Heart play our Valentine's day dance. Pretty cool times.
Check out Bryan Adam's duet with TINA TURNER called IT'S ONLY LOVE. And it's nearly a crime that you've never reacted to TINA TURNER. She was a huge solo artist in the 1980s and 1990s but you ALSO need to hear her early music from the 1960s and 1970s when she was part of the IKE & TINA TURNER REVUE. You should start first with the Ike and Tina song PROUD MARY.
@@sometimesboy I hope they just pulled it when they saw all of our comments telling them the song was by Harry Chapin and not cat Stevens. If so, a little editing and it can be reposted.
Yes we want to give credit to the correct artist. The song we reacted to had cat stevens as the artist so we are going to try and edit out his name and make sure it’s titled for Harry Chapin
@@juliewhite7469 I think so too. Even though I'm not much or a rom com fan, 'Hope Floats' and 'While You Were Sleeping' are two that I still like watching. They are very good flicks. Although, to be honest, Harry Conick Jr's character in Hope Floats is kind of creepy sometimes, but I digress.
Ugh, that movie! My friends and I loved it so much. I feel like that movie was underrated. And young Mae Whitman’s performance as Bernice…. Guess I’ll have to watch it again! 🙃
@@theoneandonlyCatseye I loved 'While You Were Sleeping' too. 'Sliding Doors' with Gwen Paltrow is another rom-com with a more serious tone. It's here on YT.❤🧡
Great song and great reaction as usual, Bryan Adams is a great singer; a dirty little secret though about this song, when he's talking about the summer of 69, in a recent interview he admitted it's exactly what it sounds like when your mind goes to the gutter. It is about his summer with that girl at the end, but not 1969. Another good song of his is *Everything I Do (I Do It For You) from the movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
Amber, love the insight you had about your mother. I am the same age as her and I can concur that certain songs take you back to a specific time in your youth, and this song is one of them.
That's right, its about a time when things were unfettered and better without malice. An innocent time where things were it felt like the world would never end.
"In the Summer of '69", Adams was 9 years old. He explained on interview "It's a very simple song about looking back on the summertime and making love. For me, the '69 was a metaphor for making love, not about the year. Song written 1984.
Bryan Adam's biggest hit was the ballad "Everything I do (I do it for you)" But he's more popular for 80's hits like "Heaven" ... 'Cuts like a knife' ... 'Run to you'
It was number one in the UK cart for a record 16weeks.love is all around a cover by Scottish group wet wet wet for the film four weddings and a funeral may have beat it but the group decided to take the record off the shelves and let people buy something else at 11 weeks at number one.
I remember back in the mid-80‘s (when I was a late teen) that this song was well-liked by most everybody I hung with, even if they didn’t admit it: pop fans, rockers, progressives, neo-punks, R&B lovers, etc. Really good tune that stands The Test of Time 👍
This song is SO good man, just good vibes. The storytelling in this song makes it even better, it always makes for a good song when it's obviously authentic and real and you can visualize every aspect of the artists best memories. I'd also say the same to "Jack and Diane", that song also gets me in a good mood every time I hear it. 😄
I remember when I graduated HS in 85. After that summer was gone. I just remember thinking wow that part of my life is over and no more,being like it was. You guys are totally awesome.
He is Canadian, just like me!! It was a massive song when it came out. He had sooo many huge hits in the 80's and early 90's. He is definitely worth the listen. I love that you brought up The Outsiders~~top 5 books I've read in my life. How do you feel about To Kill a Mockingbird?
I don't know if that was a rhetorical question but I read both in school (late 70s and early 80s) and I LOVED both books and the movies they did on them weren't as good as the books themselves. Anywho, thanks for your ear !!! Lol 👂
Oh yes! I adore Bryan Adams. So many amazing songs, so little time. Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman, Please Forgive Me, Everything I do, Straight From The Heart…you can’t go wrong! ❤️
I was born in the Summer of '69, on the second day of Woodstock, and as an 80s kid this song always felt special to me. (I'm originally from Tulsa as well!)
I love this! I saw Bryan Adams back when he was just starting in the 80's. The concert was Journey, Eddie Money and Brian Adams. So Amber I fall in line with your mom and it bringing back memories when I hear it.
HEAVEN, I CAN"T STOP LOVIN YOU, SOMEBODY and many more, Probably the biggest hit maker of the whole decade of the 80's. He had a lot of those teen dance love songs. A great, singer with a unique voice and a great guitar player, who is STILL RECORDING NOW>
Just like Corey Hart, Bryan Adam's is a fellow Canadian. Many more to discover (Platinum Blond, Loverboy, Barenaked Ladies, Saga), including some contemporary artists (Arcade Fire, Metric, July Talk, City and Colour).
The only time I saw him in concert, I drove 3 hours there. And I got a speeding ticket on the way even though the semi truck drivers gave me a warning by flashing their lights. Dumb teen I was. Got to the concert late and without tickets, missed the opening act. But my luck turned for the good as some people who reserved seats didn't show. I got to buy 6th row center. The girl I went with was quite the screamer (and looker) that got the band's attention many a times. Caught a couple guitar picks and a drum stick. Didn't get home until after 2 on a school night but will never forget it.
I listen and enjoy hearing many Canadian singers/bands including Anne Murray, Shania Twain, Three Days Grace, Bachman Turner Overdrive and Theory of a Deadman, but Bryan Adams has many songs that will get me jamming and ready to party. This one is on my top favorites list.
Oh the soundtrack to my teens 💜. So many bangers from Bryan.....Cuts Like a Knife, Heaven, To Love a Woman, Please Forgive Me, (Everything I Do) I Do It for You, Straight From The Heart, Reckless, Run To You. Could go one but y'all get the gist 😁
I was 17 when I first heard this, the band in my local pub played it every 2nd week.i thought it was the greatest ever. Now I'm in my 50s and I still love it
Bryan Adams is "80s rock". You guys may like Joe Cockers "you can keep your hat on"... Thanks for the review. I'm enjoying watching you "find" "my" music. 🙂
It's one of those songs that 100 years from now it'll still get air play during the summer. Like Don Henley's The Boy's of Summer or the Beatles' Here Comes the Sun.
Watched an interview with Bryan Adams on one of the morning shows. She asked about the year and he corrected her. It's not about a year. It's a position... Yeah her jaw hit the floor. I still chuckle everytime I hear the song.
Another great Canadian act!!! Here's a suggestion - Home For A Rest by Spirit Of The West!!! It is a GREAT party song and for about 6 years straight was the most requested song on Canadian College Radio. And, it will be totally different thanks to the fiddle and the pan flute,
When this song came out I was immediately taken back to 69. I was 14.5 years old and playing in garage bands thinking I was going to be a rock star. Incedentaly that was coincidentally the year I discovered that 69 meant something completely different than the year it was. 😜
This gentleman is from Canada and he was the first rock artist I saw in concert. I remember it well because my brother took me for my 17th birthday. I had to buy my own ticket but he took me to it. I also got to go to the big college party after it. That was the night I was introduced to a mix drink called a gimlet. It came out in the early 80s.
This song actually came out in 1984. I was in high school then - and loved this song. Bryan Adams had quite a few hits as mentioned below. One I haven't seen mentioned is "Straight from the Heart," it's one of my faves of his.
Just a brilliant songwriter and performer. Everything I do I do for You must be next. Obvious biggest hit but still a gorgeous ballad of love The actress at the end was Lynette Anthony, an English actress
I was born in 69 as well and when this song was big in the 80s it was a magical time to be alive. Thank you for doing these reactions, its like getting to hear the songs for the first time all over again.
Amazing soundtrack! When my grandson was 2-4 I think I watched that movie 500 times & Bryan’s music added so much to the story & emotion. We had the CD & listened to that 500 times. My grandson is 20 years old now & I still know every word to every song!
This angel is one of the best singers (incredible extremely low vocal) in the world! Reactionaries, who have already made more than 7 thousand reactions (check my playlist) call her the queen of goosebumps! I invite you to discover this wonderful talented young singer. Please make reaction to Diana Ankudinova - (rarest contralto with polyphonic overtones) I was stunned to find that the first performance (Show "You are Super") I heard was when she was 14!!!! She's now 18 and still developing. She sings in Russian, French, English, Spain and Arabic. The covers she performed on that show are very popular on CZcams. Many CZcamsrs publish reactions on these performances, which include "Wicked Game", "Human", "Derniere Danse", "It's a Man's Man's Man's World", "Take On Me" and others. Please react to one of Diana's songs and I promise she will surprise you.
Bryan Adams is the second best thing in Canada. The first would be poutine Hey guys please do a ZZ Top in honor of Dusty Hills passing... R.I.P. Texas man Music is the language of the Soul ~T
That moment you realize you are older than somone’s mom. 👀 This was popular when I was in high school. Excellent performer live too. Thanks for playing Canadian music again. Cheers. Love this channel so much.
It’s definitely one of his most popular songs. Deservedly so. But there are plenty more to check out. He’s great live as well. Maybe even better than in a record. He’s such a humble, funny and nice person as well, I’ve been lucky to have met him in person. Love your reactions!
The list of amazing Bryan Adams songs is endless! But it’s fun to see that Amber knows and loves him so well, one of the last true Rock Heroes. He and Gary (Moore) are my absolute favorites and bring back the best memories growing up. Bryan I still can see live, did it actually just before the pandemic in December 2019 r here in Lisbon. He still rocks it live, one of the all time best! 👍💪💪
Who’s with me? Isn’t this the best duo ever? Husband and wife, baby on the way, appreciative of different genres of music…..wow….just wow. ♥️
I agree with your underappreciated comment
Not really, girls reaction is kinda cringe and fake. Her over emotional reactions are annoying

One of the things I like best about Amber and Jordan is how much they obviously love each other. It restores some of my faith in humanity.

Fellow 🇨🇦 here and I agree, been listening to him since he first came out! Raised in Kelowna BC, where he's from Vancouver
Nova Scotia here, and same! Funny how Americans don't know Adams is Canadian... and they all know Summer of 69, but almost nothing else. Lol.
Personally 80s Bryan is his best creative work and I'm 100% biased because 80s is my all-time favourite genre!

2 very good songs, for sure.
Don't forget "Cuts like a knife"
My favourite Bryan Adams song wasn’t even a single. Just a forgotten song on one of his albums. _Ain’t Gonna Cry_
Bryan Adam’s did a song with Sting and Rod Stewart called “All for one, All for Love”. Which is super cool
Which I believe was in a Three Musketeers movie soundtrack. With Keifer Sutherland.
That song is horrid!!! Stick to the 80`s Bryan Adams when he was good.
Pllllllllzzzzzzzzz do this song. My favorite song, not JUST because it's a great song, but because who is singing. 🔥 🔥 🔥
Ooh, excellent suggestion! That was a great song on top of being clever movie tie-in. 😃
Yes I keep recommending it to all the reaction people I subscribe to but to no avail!
“Everything I Do, I Do It For You” and “Run To You.” These are my favorites by Bryan Adam’s. The first song is in the movie, Robin Hood, with Kevin Costner.

Haven't been in a number of years since the grandkids are grown. Been thinking of going but just haven't gotten around to it. Thanks for reminding me! lol.
@@emmef7970 same memories with station wagon at the drive in!
@@supobostarman Ah, the good 'ol days. :)
This album ("Reckless") was huge for Bryan Adams. There are six singles from this album (some charted better than others): "Summer of 69," "Run To You," "Heaven," "One Night Love Affair," "Somebody," and "It's Only Love." When 60% of your album is good enough to be on the radio, you're doing pretty well...
Bryan Adams, criminally underrated. Fabulous in person.
Bryan is from North Vancouver, I remember him playing at our school in Vancouver at a noon hour concert. The band was Sweeney Todd, but their lead singer couldn't make it so they brought along this scrawny kid named Bryan Adams and he was awesome! That would have been the mid 70's, the same year we had Heart play our Valentine's day dance. Pretty cool times.
Check out Bryan Adam's duet with TINA TURNER called IT'S ONLY LOVE. And it's nearly a crime that you've never reacted to TINA TURNER. She was a huge solo artist in the 1980s and 1990s but you ALSO need to hear her early music from the 1960s and 1970s when she was part of the IKE & TINA TURNER REVUE. You should start first with the Ike and Tina song PROUD MARY.
Yes we definitely need to react to Tina!
@@RobSquadReactions And yo...they already zapped your Cat Stevens reaction. Bummer!
@@sometimesboy I hope they just pulled it when they saw all of our comments telling them the song was by Harry Chapin and not cat Stevens.
If so, a little editing and it can be reposted.
Yes we want to give credit to the correct artist. The song we reacted to had cat stevens as the artist so we are going to try and edit out his name and make sure it’s titled for Harry Chapin
My favorite from Bryan Adams is the song "When You Love Someone" from the movie Hope Floats. My hubby and I used it as our first dance at our wedding.
"Hope Floats" would be a good choice for a movie reaction video. 💚💙
@@juliewhite7469 I think so too. Even though I'm not much or a rom com fan, 'Hope Floats' and 'While You Were Sleeping' are two that I still like watching. They are very good flicks. Although, to be honest, Harry Conick Jr's character in Hope Floats is kind of creepy sometimes, but I digress.
Ugh, that movie! My friends and I loved it so much. I feel like that movie was underrated. And young Mae Whitman’s performance as Bernice…. Guess I’ll have to watch it again! 🙃
@@theoneandonlyCatseye
I loved 'While You Were Sleeping' too.
'Sliding Doors' with Gwen Paltrow is another rom-com with a more serious tone. It's here on YT.❤🧡
I'm a product of the 60's it was a great era ,I'm 75 and still rocking!
Great song and great reaction as usual, Bryan Adams is a great singer; a dirty little secret though about this song, when he's talking about the summer of 69, in a recent interview he admitted it's exactly what it sounds like when your mind goes to the gutter. It is about his summer with that girl at the end, but not 1969. Another good song of his is *Everything I Do (I Do It For You) from the movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
Amber, love the insight you had about your mother. I am the same age as her and I can concur that certain songs take you back to a specific time in your youth, and this song is one of them.
Bryan Adams has explained in several interviews that "Summer of 69" is not about the year....
I was looking for this comment...lol
True. He was 10 years old in the year 1969.
That's right, its about a time when things were unfettered and better without malice. An innocent time where things were it felt like the world would never end.
@@robvegart it's about giving mustache rides to his girlfriend...
The story I read said this song was written just because he said he could write a song that had 69 in it
For many of us; the greatest Canadian musician of the 80s. Bryan is just a class act and a great dude.
"In the Summer of '69", Adams was 9 years old. He explained on interview "It's a very simple song about looking back on the summertime and making love. For me, the '69 was a metaphor for making love, not about the year. Song written 1984.
We all know what 69 really means, but some people are just too innocent.
Ok, that makes sense. Bryan Adam's rep is strong in that he loves women lol loves loving them
yup
This is an anthem of '85!!!
Bryan Adam's biggest hit was the ballad "Everything I do (I do it for you)"
But he's more popular for 80's hits like "Heaven" ... 'Cuts like a knife' ... 'Run to you'
No it isn't
“Everything I do” is also a great song by Bryan. Reminds me of the movie Robin Hood prince of thieves with Kevin Costner. 😍
Indeed, it was the theme song for that movie.
It was number one in the UK cart for a record 16weeks.love is all around a cover by Scottish group wet wet wet for the film four weddings and a funeral may have beat it but the group decided to take the record off the shelves and let people buy something else at 11 weeks at number one.
This song captures a time that is now lost, but living in that moment was very happy. For me its the summers of 88 and 89.
Summer of '69 is a perfect pop rock song.
Bryan adams , everything I do , I do for you, thanks
I remember back in the mid-80‘s (when I was a late teen) that this song was well-liked by most everybody I hung with, even if they didn’t admit it: pop fans, rockers, progressives, neo-punks, R&B lovers, etc.
Really good tune that stands The Test of Time 👍
This song is SO good man, just good vibes. The storytelling in this song makes it even better, it always makes for a good song when it's obviously authentic and real and you can visualize every aspect of the artists best memories. I'd also say the same to "Jack and Diane", that song also gets me in a good mood every time I hear it. 😄
I remember when I graduated HS in 85. After that summer was gone. I just remember thinking wow that part of my life is over and no more,being like it was. You guys are totally awesome.
It makes me so happy to watch both of you smiling when you like a song. Amber rocking it in this one! Love it
He is Canadian, just like me!! It was a massive song when it came out. He had sooo many huge hits in the 80's and early 90's. He is definitely worth the listen. I love that you brought up The Outsiders~~top 5 books I've read in my life. How do you feel about To Kill a Mockingbird?
He belongs to us now..🇺🇲
He was also 4 years old in the summer of 69.What a motivated kid!Lol
@@pastorofmuppets22 - He would have been about 9 and a half. He was born late '59.
I don't know if that was a rhetorical question but I read both in school (late 70s and early 80s) and I LOVED both books and the movies they did on them weren't as good as the books themselves. Anywho, thanks for your ear !!! Lol 👂
@@3joewj LMAO ... You wish!
Oh yes! I adore Bryan Adams. So many amazing songs, so little time. Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman, Please Forgive Me, Everything I do, Straight From The Heart…you can’t go wrong! ❤️
I was born in the Summer of '69, on the second day of Woodstock, and as an 80s kid this song always felt special to me. (I'm originally from Tulsa as well!)
The song's not about the year though :D
I love this! I saw Bryan Adams back when he was just starting in the 80's. The concert was Journey, Eddie Money and Brian Adams. So Amber I fall in line with your mom and it bringing back memories when I hear it.
Eddie Money
Take Me Home Tonight
czcams.com/video/3aJvIFK9-xk/video.html
What a concert! I am fanatical about Bryan Adams and Eddie Money.
Brian is one of Canada's musical treasures. He's also an accomplished photographer.
LOVE ALL OF HIS SONGS AND HIS RASPY VOICE❣‼‼‼‼‼‼
HEAVEN, I CAN"T STOP LOVIN YOU, SOMEBODY and many more, Probably the biggest hit maker of the whole decade of the 80's. He had a lot of those teen dance love songs. A great, singer with a unique voice and a great guitar player, who is STILL RECORDING NOW>
Just like Corey Hart, Bryan Adam's is a fellow Canadian. Many more to discover (Platinum Blond, Loverboy, Barenaked Ladies, Saga), including some contemporary artists (Arcade Fire, Metric, July Talk, City and Colour).
Yes Loverboy...saw them in 81!
Not forgetting Leonard Cohen, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell, of course, who, like Adams were some of the most prolific songwriters in popular music.
The Tragically Hip, The Tea Party, I Mother Earth, The Headstones, Sass Jordan, Finger 11
Loverboy for sure. Saw them back in the day.
Our Lady Peace, Three Days Grace, Cevilain, Cleopatrick,
The only time I saw him in concert, I drove 3 hours there. And I got a speeding ticket on the way even though the semi truck drivers gave me a warning by flashing their lights. Dumb teen I was. Got to the concert late and without tickets, missed the opening act. But my luck turned for the good as some people who reserved seats didn't show. I got to buy 6th row center. The girl I went with was quite the screamer (and looker) that got the band's attention many a times. Caught a couple guitar picks and a drum stick. Didn't get home until after 2 on a school night but will never forget it.
I listen and enjoy hearing many Canadian singers/bands including Anne Murray, Shania Twain, Three Days Grace, Bachman Turner Overdrive and Theory of a Deadman, but Bryan Adams has many songs that will get me jamming and ready to party. This one is on my top favorites list.
He has an amazing voice- love that distinct 80’s sound.
Oh the soundtrack to my teens 💜. So many bangers from Bryan.....Cuts Like a Knife, Heaven, To Love a Woman, Please Forgive Me, (Everything I Do) I Do It for You, Straight From The Heart, Reckless, Run To You. Could go one but y'all get the gist 😁
I was 17 when I first heard this, the band in my local pub played it every 2nd week.i thought it was the greatest ever. Now I'm in my 50s and I still love it
I don't know why but songs like these bring me back to the first time I heard it and it does bring a smile on my face. :) Love Bryan Adams! ❤️
Surprised nobody mentioned " One night love affair" That`s an excellent song by Bryan Adams
"One Night Love Affair" is probably my favorite
My favorite Bryan Adam's song is "Everything I Do, I Do it for You"
Hate that song
Bryan Adams is "80s rock". You guys may like Joe Cockers "you can keep your hat on"... Thanks for the review. I'm enjoying watching you "find" "my" music. 🙂
Yes..."You Can Keep You Hat On"...Song was in the movies "9 1/2 Weeks"
@@junebug_tx2305 I can't hear that song without Kim Basinger dancing through my memories.
It's one of those songs that 100 years from now it'll still get air play during the summer. Like Don Henley's The Boy's of Summer or the Beatles' Here Comes the Sun.
You guys rocking out to the music of my youth never fails to bring a smile to my face :)
Saw him when he opened for Journey in May of 1983. This song was off an album after that tour.
Bryan Adams wrote Straight from the Heart at 17, he sounds as good now in his 60’s as he did when this came out
That song always made me cry. Such a beautiful song.
Bryan Adams is now a highly renowned photographer. His portraits of celebrities are definitely worth looking at.
My favorite song growing up (I was also born 1969). To me it's like the ultimate Americana.. and it is from Canada 😄
Watched an interview with Bryan Adams on one of the morning shows. She asked about the year and he corrected her. It's not about a year. It's a position... Yeah her jaw hit the floor. I still chuckle everytime I hear the song.
I lost my pizza cutter, so I had to use my Bryan Adams CD... It cuts like a knife!
It wasn’t summer without this song playing back in my teens. Takes right back
Great song! 69 1969 sophomore In hs worked at a drive in, Sat o n mama’s porch this was my life, as so many can relate
Another great Canadian act!!!
Here's a suggestion - Home For A Rest by Spirit Of The West!!! It is a GREAT party song and for about 6 years straight was the most requested song on Canadian College Radio. And, it will be totally different thanks to the fiddle and the pan flute,
One of my favorites. VanCity represent.
Fantastic suggestion! We'd jam out to this at every party and the clubs used to play it every night. Guaranteed to fill the dance floor!
When this song came out I was immediately taken back to 69. I was 14.5 years old and playing in garage bands thinking I was going to be a rock star. Incedentaly that was coincidentally the year I discovered that 69 meant something completely different than the year it was. 😜
You have to see Bryan Adams live. Unreal
This gentleman is from Canada and he was the first rock artist I saw in concert. I remember it well because my brother took me for my 17th birthday. I had to buy my own ticket but he took me to it. I also got to go to the big college party after it. That was the night I was introduced to a mix drink called a gimlet. It came out in the early 80s.
This song actually came out in 1984. I was in high school then - and loved this song. Bryan Adams had quite a few hits as mentioned below. One I haven't seen mentioned is "Straight from the Heart," it's one of my faves of his.
Just a brilliant songwriter and performer. Everything I do I do for You must be next. Obvious biggest hit but still a gorgeous ballad of love
The actress at the end was Lynette Anthony, an English actress
Yes... so many great memories. Thank you... old friends long gone ... so many great memories
I was born in 69 as well and when this song was big in the 80s it was a magical time to be alive. Thank you for doing these reactions, its like getting to hear the songs for the first time all over again.
You must react to “It’s Only Love” which he did with the great Tina Turner.
Bryan Adams - arguably Canada's classiest rocker!
Another Canadian classic! You folks rock! 🙂
Seen him in concert - absolutely brilliant.
Bryan Adam's did the soundtrack for the animated movie: Spirit.
Amazing soundtrack! When my grandson was 2-4 I think I watched that movie 500 times & Bryan’s music added so much to the story & emotion. We had the CD & listened to that 500 times. My grandson is 20 years old now & I still know every word to every song!
This angel is one of the best singers (incredible extremely low vocal) in the world!
Reactionaries, who have already made more than 7 thousand reactions (check my playlist) call her the queen of goosebumps!
I invite you to discover this wonderful talented young singer.
Please make reaction to Diana Ankudinova -
(rarest contralto with polyphonic overtones)
I was stunned to find that the first performance (Show "You are Super") I heard was when she was 14!!!!
She's now 18 and still developing. She sings in Russian, French, English, Spain and Arabic.
The covers she performed on that show are very popular on CZcams. Many CZcamsrs publish reactions on these performances, which include "Wicked Game", "Human", "Derniere Danse", "It's a Man's Man's Man's World", "Take On Me" and others.
Please react to one of Diana's songs and I promise she will surprise you.

Sweet, Amber...great memories with your mom! I too love this song!
I was born in the summer of 69. August 28th. I love this song! Brian Adams is the man!!
We need some ZZ Top today. Lost Dusty Hill (the bassist) of this legendary band. "Legs" and "Sharp Dressed Man". Please!
Bryan Adams is the second best thing in Canada. The first would be poutine
Hey guys please do a ZZ Top in honor of Dusty Hills passing...

You're putting him above Rush? Inconceivable!

As you wish...
@@HandleTakenlol 😆
I’m guessing Bieber is the last on your list.
That's an early 80's classic from the very beginning of MTV , HUGE Hit video & record , I was as happy as you !
That moment you realize you are older than somone’s mom. 👀 This was popular when I was in high school. Excellent performer live too. Thanks for playing Canadian music again. Cheers. Love this channel so much.
It’s definitely one of his most popular songs. Deservedly so. But there are plenty more to check out. He’s great live as well. Maybe even better than in a record. He’s such a humble, funny and nice person as well, I’ve been lucky to have met him in person. Love your reactions!
A song I would suggest that I haven’t seen mentioned “the kids wanna rock”. Such an underrated song
The list of amazing Bryan Adams songs is endless! But it’s fun to see that Amber knows and loves him so well, one of the last true Rock Heroes. He and Gary (Moore) are my absolute favorites and bring back the best memories growing up. Bryan I still can see live, did it actually just before the pandemic in December 2019 r here in Lisbon. He still rocks it live, one of the all time best! 👍💪💪
this guys has such a huge library of awesome songs he is amazing!!
