Checking some more Bad Company it’s been a while! What do you guys think of this song?! And what’s the next one we should check out by them! Cheers all!! 🙌🏻🔥

Hardly anyone is saying "Feel Like Makin' Love." Hmmm...I'm going to say "Feel Like Makin' Love."

"Johnny's life passed him by like a warm summer day" That lyric always gets me.

This is the reason I like these guys; they don't just love everything. They are good at explaining why they like a song and what they don't like so much. Not a lot of other channels do that, they just say 'wow, that was great'.

Haven't seen anyone mention it but "Cant get enough of your love" was the first song of theirs to hit the radio. It banged.

'Rock Steady' is well....rock f***in steady. That's all I got to say.

Paul Kossoff, one of the great guitarist of that time died of a overdose when he and Paul Rogers were in the band Free. Rogers took the loss of his friend very hard and that band ended . Years later Rogers founded Bad Co.

"can't get enough","rock steady","runnin with the pack","seagull" are a few more classics by Bad Company ☮️

Most people don't get the "shooting" star reference at all, let alone early in the song. Great, very thoughtful analysis!

I’m voting for Burnin’ Sky as your next Bad Company hit.

These are a few of my picks for Bad Company. These are a little more banger than Shooting Star. Feel Like Makin’ Love Can’t Get Enough Ready for Love Good Lovin Gone Bad Rock Steady Rock n Roll Fantasy Burnin Sky

"If you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play." Those lyrics give me chills every time. Time for some deeper cuts from Bad Company. 🎧 Burnin' Sky 🎧 Feel Like Makin' Love 🎧 Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy 🎧 Good Lovin' Gone Bad

During high school back in the 70s, Bad Company was an important part of our lives. I love the band. Thanks for the vid guys.

Its heartening to know this music wont die with those of us that grew up listening to these songs in summers that went by too fast. They represent free will and imagination to me. Keep it alive.

Interesting tidbit: Led Zeppelin started their own label, Swan Song Records, to promote their own music and sign other artists. One of the few bands they signed was Bad Company.

Man, i forgot how good this song is. Back when it came out, we were all mesmerized by the sad story. Awesome vocals and musically very good although these tempo songs aren't always my favorites, this song was pretty fresh back then. I love your take on this, Alex. You totally got it. The fleeting shine of the shooting star!

Every time I hear a Bad Company song, I'm 16 years old again! (Then the song is over and I try to stand up and realize that I've been 16 four times! )

Hi Gents! This song was a staple for my generation. Everyone didn't just love this song, we made it part of our lives.

"Can't Get Enough" is the Definitive song for Bad Company, and their biggest played song on classic rock radio

Anything off the Bad Co album is great. That said, "Silver 'Blue, and Gold" off Run with the Pack is one of my favorites. Great song.

I so appreciate your analysis, Alex. For me, Shooting Star was more like a solemn remembrance of rock and roll loss. In 1971-72 we lost 3 legends over the course of a year, all the same age, all of the same cause. It was a dreaded theme and like generations before us we took it hard. And make no mistake, even then we knew Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison were legends. Then there was Duane Allman in a motorcycle crash during that same period And others I can’t think of right now It was awhile ago. Do more Bad Company, please. Well done, guys.

Seagull is a MUST listen!! Bad Co has such a special place in my heart and soul.... Can't ever go wrong with some Bad Co 🔥🤘🔥

BAD CO. ~ "Moving On" "Runnin With The Pack", "Don't Let Me Down", ''Silver Blue and Gold", ''Gone Gone Gone", "Seagull"

Shooting Star is a banger and classic short story complete with hope in the beginning and sadness at the end. Imo they covered the bases in this rocker with both storyline, feeling and dynamics and lyrical content which are all super hard to do within a 3 minute span. While it may not be in my fav category, I’d suggest it deserves an A for total composition.

If you want some old school bangers, do Bachman Turner Overdrive. "Not Fragile", "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet", "Roll On Down The Highway", "Let It Ride", "Four Wheel Drive", "Flat Broke Love". You really need to hear some BTO !!!

Bad Company has a special place in my heart. My husband and I song was Feel Like Making Love.

Not my favorite Bad Co. song. However, Paul Rodgers is an all-time singing legend.

Finally more Bad Company! You guys nailed the reaction in this one! The lyrical analysis by Alex was deep, and spot on. Paul Rodgers is noted as one of the iconic voice standards in classic rock. Realize he was also the lead singer for Free, with songs like All Right Now, which is said to be played on the radio somewhere in the world every 45 seconds. Bad Company has got a wide range of fantastic songs. The songs you've got to listen to are: beginning with the harder hitting songs - Holy Water, Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy, Burnin' Sky, Rock Steady, and Can't Get Enough; to the middle ground - Bad Company, Shooting Star, and Movin' On; to the softer end of the spectrum - Ready for Love, Feel Like Makin' Love, Don't Let Me Down, and Seagull. You can't go wrong with any of these songs, or anything else from the Bad Company discography.

More must listens from Bad Co would be Can't Get Enough, Movin' On, and Feel Like Makin' Love.

Bad Company's bassist, Boz Burrell, was formerly of King Crimson. Paul Rodgers had said this song wasn't about anyone in particular but was a cautionary tale.

Burning Sky, Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy, and Electricland. Electricland has a pretty funky, swing feel backed by gritty, bluesy guitar over it.

Silver,Blue, and Gold definitely.

Such a great tune, and what a great rock and roll voice Paul has. Until the internet came along, I always thought he was American. This music will never die; it was a unique era... it became legendary, and now it's timeless.

I think the lyrics carry this song. The music is good, real good, but doesn’t blow you away. I think that’s by design. I know when this song is on I NEVER turn it off or change the channel. Thanks guys!

Others have said it but you must do Rock Steady.. The bass alone is worth it...

I'm a 62 year old who has played guitar and bass for over 50 years. I lived most all of the songs you guys post, yet you never fail to point out something I originally missed in the song. I love your channel and look forward to your future posts. Keep up the great work.

One of my favorite by Bad Company is "Gone, Gone,Gone". another must listen to.

Time for some Humble Pie please....Smokin', 30 Days in the Hole, I Don't Need No Doctor, Black Coffee.....

Please do “Can’t Get Enough” to me this is THE song for this band.

It’s hard to not appreciate Paul Rodgers vocals he’s up there at top 5 male rock vocalist ever!

This is definitely a cautionary tale. It use to be said it was about Hendrix, but it can be applied to any artist who destroyed their life through drugs and booze. Good song but they have better.

I love Alex's take on the song.

Very good evocative lyrics. 🎼🎼🎧🔥 Paul Rodgers voice is Magic

"Feel Like Making Love" is a kick ass song, way better than this one and a banger in general.

Believe me,this song grows on you,the very first time I heard it,I had pretty much the same reaction to it, listen to it a couple more times and you'll see what I mean.

Listen to the deeper cuts. Wild fire woman and burnin sky.

Big fan of Bad Company but this is not one of my favorites. I would try "Feel Like Making Love" or "Rock and Roll Fantasy". Good job!

Bad Company is like Bob Seger in that they don’t have a bad song. You can put their music on and drive all day and night.

Yeah, you nailed it. A shooting star is a meteor...It hits the atmosphere and shines bright for a few minutes while it's burning up and then its gone.

Spirit " I Got a Line"

I always get chills from the lyric "Johnny said, 'Don't cry momma. Smile, and wave goodbye.'" To me Jukebox Hero is the light/happy version of Shooting Star, like a Disney movie based on a Grimm's fairy tale. (Jukebox Hero was several years later than Shooting Star.)

Paul Rodgers is the only singer who can sing Whoooaaoooaah Yeeaahheeaah, and make it sound like he just said something profound. "Feel Like Making Love" is the only song where they have a ripping guitar solo(not really a solo b/c Rodgers is singing over it, but it rips).

Lol, the title almost got me guys!!!😆 For a second I thought you decided to tske my advice on Shooting Star....the band! Still a great tune from BadCo. No complaints here for sure. But really want to hear a reaction on "Last Chance" from y'all. Would be a banger for sure. Gotta give this a listen now!👍🏻

Paul Rodgers has one of the great vocals in rock history. Boz Burrell on bass was highly under rated, he played a fretless bass guitar BTW

I won't stop asking..... Ten Years After: I'd Love to Change the World. Guitar anthem for all time....

Check out The Firm! Paul Rogers and Jimmy Page super group!

You guys have to check out Little River Band!!!!!!! They’re so underrated!!!!!!!! Lonesome Loser, Help is on it’s way, Night Owls, etc.

"Burning Sky" really showcases Paul's Voice, and how tight this band is.

Glad you guys are doing some more of the raw rock n roll from that era! Rock on 🤘

Johnny's life passed him by like a warm summer day...always makes me tear up.

Great story song..... Good job keep up the quality fun

This is the same vocalist from the band "Free." Their biggest hit was "Alright Now."

Hey, I learned something with Alex's analysis of the lyrics. The whole "shooting star" metaphor. You're right about that. It's ephemeral.

The Eagles repeat that message in New Kid In Town. “Everybody loves you, so don’t let them down.”

In the vein of “country rock” you would be remiss in not checking out “Can’t You See” by the Marshall Tucker Band and “Dixie Chicken” by Little Feat.

I’ve always thought this was a very workmanlike, solid “B” sort of song, but the ending couple of minutes raise it up a notch. Especially that guitar work tucked behind the vocals.

This is one of those songs that hits you in an emotional spot. It kind of sweeps you along.

Dude I'm 49 years old and I absolutely love this channel. Love to hear you guys breakdown and put your opinions on all these classics. Keep it up, you guys have an awesome thing going here.

"Rock and Roll Fantasy", seven days a week over this one. You guys would LOVE it...

Check out .... The Firm..... Radioactive...... Jimmy,page and Paul rogers

“Feel like Makin Love” is a must! And soon, please-😊💛❤️✌️✨

Its a great thing when young people acknowledge music from the past.

As far as I remember this is interpreted as homage to the guitarist from their original band Free (Paul Kosof) who died as in this song.

Next “Ten Years After” and.... *T H E H O L L I E S*

Bad Company -Shooting Star What A Great Tune To Be Jamming Too in 1975 At The Age Of 15 Years Young

Gents You need to listen to & then review Feel like Making Love Paul Rodgers rocks /50 yrs & still going

"ROCK STEADY" next please!

GOOD MORNING FAMILY!!!

Great band! My favorite Rock singer Paul Rodgers. Here are some great sogs for you: Ready For Love, Rock N Roll Fantasy, Movin On, Good Lovin Gone Bad, Silver Blue & Gold, Gone gone gone, Live for the Music and Burning Sky. Thanks guys you ROCK

Feel Like Making Love and Rock and Roll Fantasy. Several other good ones.

Awesome start to the week!!!

Ok this is a goody!!!! Great song!

Bad company has lots of bangers. Paul Rodgers is a legend. Keep delving in - it will pay off

I liked your analysis of the lyrics. I feel like it is not only in reference to stars that might turn to substances after they have lost their initial star appeal, but you can also apply this to all those musicians who died at the height of their careers because of their overindulgences. We keep getting that repeated history of so much lost potential from those who die far too young from this same sad story.

The song is good, but not a banger. They have better stuff. My personal fav is 'Ready for love'.

More Bad Company, From their Debut ",Album "Can't Get Enough", "Rock Steady" & "Ready For Love". From Straight Shooter "Good Lovin' Gone Bad", & "Feel Like Making Love". From Destination Angels "Rock N Roll Fantasy".

Awesome. Love Paul,Rodgers Now it's time for A&A to get slapped by the bass of Mr Larry Grahm! Sly and Family Stone , "Thank You(Falletme be mice elf again ) ".

This album was hugely popular when it was released. Rock 🤘

Great reaction but seems to me that music of my era like this took their time n didnt need to fill every moment. We loved the "feel" of songs n this was a big hit✌️

You got it, Alex 💫

My first album back in the day...just a young'un in elementary school! Try these...Movin On; Seagull; Rock 'n Roll Fantasy; Good Loving Gone Bad; Ready For Love; Rock Steady; Can't Get Enough; Silver, Blue & Gold; Burnin' Sky; Weep No More; Don't Let Me Down; Gone, Gone, Gone...that ought to get you started

Movin' On, Can't Get Enough, Rock and Roll Fantasy, Burnin' Sky, Rock Steady, Deal with the Preacher - all good Bad Company tunes. The Original Bad Company was: Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke from Free, Mick Ralphs from Mott The Hoople and Boz Burrell from King Crimson. Signed to Led Zeppelin's own Swan Song label. Managed by Led Zeppelin manager Peter Grant

Paul Rodgers is one of my top 6 rock voices the other 5 in no order Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, Ann Wilson, Chris Cornell and Roger Daltrey

Next one has to be Feel like makin love". That one came out when I was 10 and was the first rock song I noticed. As a ten year old not knowing what the lyrics meant, I made my mom "listen to this great song!!". Pretty sure she was not as impressed as I was:)

Can’t Get Enough, Feel Like Makin Move, Run With The Pack, Live For The Music

Wow Alex! That was deep!

Nice way to ease us into the week! A bit of a sad song, but one that needed to be heard. You nailed the entire concept. Nothing to add - Well said! Paul Rodgers is such a gorgeous singer and such classic rock riffs. It is a good song, but I do think this is a "droopy" A... I think I prefer the first album much better. Still enjoyed this! Suggest: "Can't Get Enough" or "Feel Like Makin' Love". Either one. Have a wonderful day, fellas! :)

Another favorite when I'm working out.

Bad Company is really good at packing in the cliches.

Very spot on analysis of the metaphorical lyrics. As long as you are, a shooting star. Neil young would argue that it’s better to burn out than fade away.
