Oh My God - SO few bands ever come close to this amount of sheer talent. Yes, that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. You can stick to the crap these days that has NO real/actual talent behind it. Just electronics, stupid/senseless lyrics and people who can't even sing a single note on key with their own voices. Yep, you can keep all the noise and garbage. Too bad you take such offense to calling crap .... CRAP.
I was dating this guy who took me to a party. We got there early, sat down in the living room and this song came on the radio. I said 'OH Boy this song'. He said 'Does it bother you I'll change it'..
Just an outstanding song that has stood the test of time! The harmonies, chord structure, rythm, lyrics...everything about it just makes me smile, as so much music from the 70s and 80s did!
Michael Mcdonald was brought in to replace tom jonhston who had to leave because of a stomach aliment. Mcdonald was sugested to the band by the other guitarist in this video (Jeff Baxter) the skunk! wearing the sunglasses. Baxter was also one of the founding menbers of steely dan.
@Nallzybellz Michael came much later. I think the later 70's early 80's Although he did a lot of leads he was not the lead vocalist. . .the guy you just heard on this video was the official lead singer. I think they all could sing and did on different songs though. . .
@MrRandblues - Thank you for saving me some time writing my comment!
The Doobie Brothers "ROCKED" with Tom Johnston! Michael McDonald made them sound too much like cheesy, cocktail lounge music. Whenever I think of Michael McDonald, I think of what Jake Blues said in the "Blues Brothers" about his band members being dressed in candy-ass outfits and playing silly music no one likes!
Born in 71, the 80's music is my era but certainly had no lack of 70's songs being played still and the place I used to go out used to play it all the time, awesome song and always puts me in a happy mood, it did back when I was 16 and it does till this day!
on time i had turned the radio on to a station that only i like other kids started chasing me to change the station and then this song came on and it was like a big F.U to those kids
i knew the brothers before they were doobies , pat and me jammed a few times , 60's , he was good then , i hadnt got my chops yet , but i got em now , pat borrowed the term " doobies " from us , he owes us royalties i think ...
@ChopstickBrando : This is likely the original track dubbed to this live performance clip. It's identical to the one I heard on the radio 939,867,143,475,874 times. No banjo to be seen...heard but not seen eh.
@jackfantoe : Right on. And who the fuck are you? The leader of the Klu Klux Klan or just his pussy? Do you really like getting boned in the anal cavity by a bigot every day? Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot....you do and you're proud. What ya call a field full of bigots? C4 experimental targets. LMAO. Hope yer KKK guy drives A.I.D.S. into your anal cavity, or down your throat. Either or. Send my DISregards ahead of time eh...ARSEWIPE.
@treblejunkie bahahhahahah it was a joke cock sucker an your the only idiot who bought into it you dumb fucking peice of nigger shit bahahah have a nice day man :)
I love this song!, and Im only 17 lol. I grew up listening to the Doobies as well as Little River Band and the Beatles because of my dad. Im glad he steered me into this kind of music THANKS DAD!. There's nothing like this these days though. Such a pitty!
We just saw them play this song @ Nakusp BC Music Festival....this summer 2011....this song and the whole show was totally tight , crisp clear and awesome ...Doobies forever!!!
@deepakbubna There comes a point when the jokes get too old to be funny. Beiber isn't my cup-o-tea but I got no particular hate for him, he's not the Anti-Christ of Rock. Let it go.
@hotstuffandicecream I actually grew up as a "little brother" to your generation.What a time that was..everyone was driving beat up station wagons,Volkswagon bugs,and those vans with painted Star Trek themes on the side,,stealing from convient stores, coming from dysfunctional families..but this music made it right.
