Thank you my friend! 😊😊😊🫶

I really need to do a reaction to BT...it's so beautiful

I so love this version of Bad!

Hahaha love me some Python 😆. Yes, I saw that video floating around!

Oh yes, I have listened to those song no less than 1000 times each, hahaha. I can probably sing every part by now! 😂

I'll take it! :)

The only reason why I haven’t done a first reaction video for Thriller is because I already saw it! Waaaaaaaa

For sure,glaad you heard it ,too.

You gotta tune in to my interview with Jonah cuz we talk about Stevie Wonder (it’s in part 2 or 3 of the interview)!

Awesome suggestion!

Jacobs stuff is AMAZING!!! Only problem is every video that includes his music gets blocked. When I did “Moon River” I had to post it on my Patreon site which is not a huge deal except I don’t think as many people will go there to enjoy it. 😩

You nailed our influences! I’d love to know what your favorite songs are! 😃

@@StrateleStudios Ok, you asked for it... Lol. Here goes, highlights: Broken: love the lyrics; the background harmonies; the driving guitar throughout & the solo before the last chorus; the broken yell Out Among Stars: like a lullaby (for Major Tom, floating out in space, befriended by a satellite, lol); it's soothing lyrically & musically; "so much for gravity" The Scorpion & The Frog: atmospheric synth; the switchups; the story reminds me of Brian Wilson's "Mt. Vernon & Fairway" fairy tale that was included as a bonus 45 with the Holland album, both are very cool! Nika: The Kansas tribute, yes! Otherworldly feel. This is the one that reminds me of "The Wall" for some reason. Quasar: Parts remind me of "Fly like an Eagle" Steve Miller Band. Haven't digested all the lyrics yet, but "numbers of Fibonacci" caught my ear. Shred vocals! Is that a Hammond organ sound in there? Ghost...: Super cool, could be a haunted house video game background track with all the different sections; love "soon as the sun comes out" sung in a round; "standing on the edge, not to jump but to fly" yeah! (Some days you don't know which one you're gonna choose.) Tipping Point: cool chords, reminds me of Joe Jackson's "Steppin' out" All that to say I think it's super cool & different (in a good way), but with familiar nods that make my ears perk up. I like the interesting, verbose lyrics that make you think a bit. And the way the sections switch up keeps you on your toes (or ears). And I like that the songs feel expansive, not chopped down for radio purposes... Episodic. Vast & varied soundscape!

@@lavenderbluemama953 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 I can’t tell you how much it means to me that you would comment on such great detail to one of my albums! I loved all your comments and it’s so fascinating to read your reactions to these songs. I can’t thank you enough!

@@StrateleStudiosAww, thanks. I tend to get stuck in my playlists, & forget to seek out new music sometimes, so I'm having fun listening to yours. And really, how many times does one get the opportunity to actually tell an artist how their music makes them feel? Anyway, I admire those with talent, knowledge, & passion to create music that moves people, as you do, so thank you.

@@lavenderbluemama953 Curious! Where do I find the playlist you are taking about?!

Hahahaha! That was such a great song to do a reaction video for! I had so much fun. I’ll be doing more Premiers cuz the chat was so much fun! About where are you located?

Yeah I was definitely noticing that Jonah-Jacob thing., very heavy in this song, and I know they are friends.

@@StrateleStudios I live in Berlin, Germany and today there is BIG government election day for district, federal land + the Federal Republic of Germany. It´s impossible to do more decisions for the future election wise...

@@matto9734 the Abgeordnetenhaus of Berlin?

@@StrateleStudios ;-) yup, plus the districts of Berlin, plus the whole Federal Republic

Hahahaha thanks man. That’s a fun one! Ya I saw that breakdown, so many tracks!

@@StrateleStudios pretty interesting, yeah, also his choice of sounds ☺️👍

Good timing, I was going to ask for suggestions of other bands to check out! You beat me to the punch! 😃

@@worduser899 you’re right, What about me is a must, maybe the best piece from We Like It Here, that’s why I recommended Jeff to start with Lingus 😉

Probably, I’m personally more familiar with MT so they came to mind 😊

@@StrateleStudios What a thrill it must have been to interview Jonah, and what a humble guy he is! KUDOS.

@@StrateleStudios I have met Man Tran a few times. Janice Seigel grew up near where I grew up in Seattle. Met Tim and Alan, too. Great artists.

Hahaha for sure!!!

😊✌️

That’s was fun!

I followed your advice and OMG they are awesome! It´s good to see other sides of Henrik apart from DL and what a beautiful solo he catered to that song...

I shot my reaction to this tune, loved it!!! Need to edit the footage and post now!

I know…so mind blowing but we need to do some vocals like that for Hollander (hint hint) 😃

Ya baby ya!

I really need to…I love his solo

Great question! I’d love to hear them do a remake of “If You Want Me To Stay” by Sly and the Family Stone!

Interesting choice indeed! 👌

Definitely an interesting choice! I would ask for Inca Roads by Frank Zappa.

@@MiQBohlin can you imagine them pushing THAT song harder 😂

Totally!

Hahahaha yaz!!!

That just made my list! 😊😊😊 Thanks Malcolm!

@@StrateleStudios you’re very welcome. Live your posts.

@@mallit I did a reaction to this song goes up Aug 13. 👏👏👏

@@StrateleStudios I’ll check it out. There’s so many incredible talents about. Keep up the great work.

Understand why you would think that but it’s Jonah doing all the backing vocals himself

Interesting, I could definitely see that.

@@birger4788 Yeah, I re-watched de original flix and you're right. It is a very Jacob Collier's style arrangement.

Is this info available online somewhere? If not let me know and I can ask Jonah.

@@StrateleStudios Hi! No, I have not searched. I thought it was JC but I was mistaken. As I said before, it's a very JC's style arrangement (wall of voices, half/quarter time ending, etc). Thanks for asking!
