Now its " in your email , oooo , in your email"

[MrChiludo11]

gracias antohuya por subir esta cancion

[Tboneator64]

This song definitely brings back memories of the early 80s. Very rarely even see typewriters these days. These days, the song would be the awkwardly titled "In Your Email" with Kevin Cronin simply deleting it, rather than tearing the letter and tossing the paper shreds, LOL!

[DeputyDog644]

You fine folks are ssoooo right!!! What has happened to true rock 'n roll??? Lord, we thank You for giving us such fantastic and pure music and great memories!! They will NEVER die!!

[camlpg]

Definitely a 1950s style song , catchy. Hey, when is the last time you wrote someone a letter and handwritten one to boot. Does remind me of when I wrote a love letter a few decades ago; well, she wrote back and ... she didn't like me.

[rockerbabyification]

each bad thing that has happen with me and Gary i ever want to speak to him again or even see him around . he is a not a good guy .

[pgraeser1]

LOVE, LOVE LOVE REO SPEEDWAGON!!!

[fluffydolly]

[blackandtanful]

[DougiesGirlDy]

@blackandtanful SPEAK ENGLISH BIATCH.

[drproctor13]

Hi Infidelity along with Escape from Journey were the two albums that you had to own if you were in high school in the early 80's! Thank you for posting this great song.

[oldschool525]

[fonse592]

NICE T-SHIRT...BILLY MADISON

[MrAIRBORNEDAD]

went thru Ranger school in 82

[chickachickalady]

This song was written because Neil 's lady left him for another man while he was on the road . He got that infamous letter when he came home from touring. Sad story but so true!

[starr022]

reptiles so many wered we start in his heart 

[liddypool2009]

What a great band they had been and they still are!

It reminds of the time when I was young, listening to good music from the USA.

So today it´s Lady Gaga, Black Eyed Peas, etc. - No melody, no harmony and no real love in it today.

Long live the real music and the love and passion for it!!

[Graceland2ndFloor]

@liddypool2009 Very well said. 

[shaniafaniscam]

@liddypool2009 So true

[sandinyourshoes]

What was all the trouble with "Ghair?"

[MrGarciaAZ]

I remember My 70 chevelle ss and listing these bad ass songs number 1 now and for ever

[wardo692001]

[rossyc73]

HERMOSOS LOS 80's................. LOS AMO!!!!

[DBZPIE]

REO was great back in the 80's wish Kevin and Gary would get back together

[amadeus65rocks]

[lovethemick]

:)) :)) So Cool!! Cheers Rob

[2711hiro]

この曲を探してました。題名もアーチストも分からず半ばあきらめ­ていました。感謝します。

[bigdaddy714100]

my girlfriend used to sing these songs to me ,I miss you cathy chorder/kenmore ,I still lovf this 1

[jackwolf131]

This almost sounds like Little Chrissy and The Alphabeets would do this song for Sesame Street. If that didn't happen, Then I just invented that idea

[erickland16]

scsa

[ameryasser1]

REO are fine. Their song (In your letter) it's nice. It's fine. It reminds of the 1st time in my past life when I had started behaving like a tramp. But that was long ago. Where did those REO people come from originaly ? At other past times also, I had thought they Originaly had come from Italy, or ??? Or South America ? Or Spain ? It's fine with me that many people like them, and that they are successful. (Fine).

[corre2010caminos]

DE QUE AÑO ES ESTE TEMA????

[epascob]

@corre2010caminos fines de 1982 y verano de 1983

[emboladoomeiodecampo]

Essa é com certeza, uma das mais belas músicas do Reo Speedwagon!.

[dulcemary40]

GOod memories when I here this song best song ever

[MrAIRBORNEDAD]

This song reminds me of being a young infantry soldier going thru jump school man those were the days

[nwhitacre]

@MrAIRBORNEDAD  Same here. We might have been through jump school together. "Ungawa" "Hit the hole poleman, hit the hole."

[udaymehta1963]

Mindblowin' CLASSIC--one of the most beautiful song one can ever hear!!!

[MrGarciaAZ]

REO is the best band ever they rock

[scorp68]

One of my favorite songs :)! Could never get sick of it..Best era for music....

[VICTORIA777NESS]

They are definitely one of my all time favs!!!!

[chingon1371]

one of my favorite songs

[radioelargentino]

Estimated friend, if you want to listen again to this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - it looks for his direction URL for Google (scribe Musica para Mimos in Google)-. The best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is going to please you, is very good ...!!!

[sixnightsaweek]

They were a class group all the way

[Wildrosestands]

Short of ACDC, these guys were the sweetest most humble group of musicians that I ever met.

[novusconcepts]

A fan from Singapore. Awesome.

[malle420]

these songs remind my mom of when she was in high school woodruff high in peoria illinios

[orengamblesr]

As someone who grew up during the 60s, that was a time when there was so much great music being made. This songs takes me back to that time, the musice and the lyrics are so awesome. REO made so many great songs but this one will always be my favorite.

[ACORNSUCKS]

typewriter....lol

[wildbilltexas]

Randy & The Rainbows did a awesome Doo-Wop version of this too. Do a search for it here on YouTube.

It was a real shock to hear this on "Hi Infidelity" after all those rockers and ballads. Great song that showed off the versatility of this band!

[HistoryTours]

Saw them last night at the Gretna Heritage Fest 1st class show they still have it

[smittie1989]

nice song!!

[thewayilook2night]

[rowgreer]

Boring old REO is way better!!!

[77virgo7]

I remember seeing Reo Speedwagon with Foghat in the Salt Palace!

[fntrovato]

Brings back college memories

[davehutchinson67]

I remember this video on early days of MTV. Do they even play videos anymore?

[missperfect2010ful]

It is a fantastic song. But video has no matching with the great lyrics. Even the woman did not show high emotions on her face. i love this song since my childhood. Thanks a lot for the upload.

[tonidmc]

They filmed this obviusly the same day of the keep on loving you video. The same girl, the same shirts, and the same tv...

[kentuckycowboy2]

Timeless .

[Jenne61265]

I was 8 yrs old when my dad got Hi Infidelity on 8 track. I was always stealing it and this was always my favorite song.

[rawee1one]

just coming to bring those good old days back. Where are all these guys doing? miss them a lot.

[MrARMusic]

@rawee1one they are touring... i got the privilage to meet them after a show last April. nicest people ever

[biggin2g]

love it

[tryithere]

I wonder what key the song is on the typwriter...and how do you transpose?

[Bond007Brian]

great song from a great album

[CedrictheDragon]

@Bond007Brian Hi Infidelity, a very good LP

[chrisandcoreyslife]

wat album this

[lisag7567]

AWW this brings back so many good memories, when life was much calmer, and more fun. I remember listening to Reo Speedwagon in my high school years. GOOD TIMES. I really need to find one of those hot tub time machines! lol.

[DaveWollenberg]

Hit #20 pop, #26 AC in Billboard. God bless!

[screamsofvanity]

nobody plays like this anymore, good song

[misshair]

Gary looks so cute n sweet when he smiles..Ya, I miss Richrath too...:/

[hamer1980]

que porqueria vieja ,,

[flugeldozer]

this is such a pretty and charasmatic "coming of age" song........summer of 1981. haha- young, dumb, and full of ,well.....

[castertunes1967]

love this cd! song is great...also see "tough guys" and "out of season"

[MsFleur68]

Love it! Thanks much !

[Kohntarkosz]

Wow! I've never seen this video before! I like the Fender XII that Gary's playing in this one.

[01Paulina01]

I love this song

[christiansoilder777]

in your text! u could of said it better!lol

[Indiancrab]

Classic from reo speed wagon.

[rin3guy]

This great song reached #20 in 1981. (U.S., Billboard)

[fluffydolly]

great original vid!!!!!

[thewayilook2night]

In your e mail,,you could of said it better.

[wsanders65]

was really surprised to see REO perform this song in Toledo last weekend. Forgot about this one... Made me feel peretty darn old.

[mrbassmatt2112]

guitar is better !!!!!!!

[katanakis]

Always will be my favourite band!

[keyeword]

saw these guy a thousand times in high schools all over chicago when i was a kid.

gary was a MONSTER. i aint shittin he was a monster.

two 50 watt marshalls plugged into to the p.a. . . .

he was the SHIT!!!!!

gary if yer listenin. . .you were fuckin TOPS. .that aint no shit

[1danrobbins]

I should clarify something, I enjoy the new guy. He plays really well and seems to be enjoying himself, but Richrath was the always such a treat to watch and man could he rock.

[Freyja1133]

IS Reo Speedwagon a good influence for a power metal band to have?

[fucia11]

@Freyja1133 sort of... REO Speedwagon is the best band out there in my book but if you are looking for good power metal i'd suggest Cinderella they are the shit when it comes to metal, poison too!

[djk569]

wow..its been way too long since Ive heard this song.....i just remember that i cried every time i heard it.....

[1danrobbins]

Haven't heard this REO song in a long time. I miss Richrath.

[Freyja1133]

So do I,1dan

[pixiehollow22]

Me too! He was the heart and soul of REO.

[Lorraindeer]

WOW  great song,it's been a long time since iv'e heard this

[grumpypant]

Les Paul is a Gibson electric guitar, for those of you who are curioused, which Gary usually played back in the days...

Rest in peace, Mr. les Paul!!!

[buckk007]

Gary owns an unbelievable collection of Les Paul's. I've never seen, it but I've heard it's very extensive & quite rare & that it's worth a fortune.

[NightOwlie]

I forgot all about this song, but loved it when it was popular....and still do! Great to hear it again.

[3impersonators]

*GASP* No Les Paul!!!!! :-)

[AnacondaTwelve]

Wasn't that chick in one of their other videos from this album?

[retro38]

yes she was. still don't know what her name is though.

[Kupkake1994]

My mothern loves these guys. I didnt even know them til like 3 yrs. ago..... i love them now! and i love this song.

[pixiehollow22]

Is Gary playing a Fender there? That's something you don't see very often!

[Freyja1133]

Gary Richrath was a les paul guy

[Kenoman29]

I've been an REO fan since '73.....now, this song is really goofy....but it does have that '50s feel which is a good thing. When REO hosted the Midnight Special after "Hi Infidelity" came out, this song did not appear. However, look at Garys' guitar in this video...I think its a 12 string. In a commercial break on the Midnight Special that night REO was doing the "Hey we'll be right back" sort of ting and Gary was holding that same guitar. In your Letter never made it on the program.

[esanez]

Great song, one of my favourites.

[SolaceNocturne]

This song has so many memories.... not of love.. but just of times & growing up. An era. makes me both happy & sad.... but I will always love this song!

[cambroni13]

ahhh this is a real music,beautiful song.

[Freyja1133]

Poor Gary!  I feel sorry for him He was so sweet looking back then

[shumishumi100]

asuuuu, que lindo tema, me hace recordar mi temporada del cole, y la paraba tarareando, algunos amigos se me apegaban para saber de la buena musica. Buen grupo que tal piano la muerte, en tu carta buenisimo buenisimo.

[rshakira1]

I love this song. Makes me wanna cry cuz it reminds me to someone. Sniff!

[piontro]

Ok, rshakira cry your heart out, because if you don't, You'll always have it inside you. Just move on bella, Somewhere, someday, he's waiting for you. Just give a chance to your heart. He;s there and you haven't noticed it.. You think he looks funny, or silly, but he's the ONE. Tell me later when you become a beautiful mom.

[smile4mejmarie]

In your Email,,,,you could of said it better....

[brownies4you]

Thanks for the much needed laugh.

[Freyja1133]

smile ,letter  rhymes with better

[k16k16jp]

in a  japanese i-doll DUO "Wink"'s Album,thre were same song.

But most majour sonf of Wink is "Heart on wave" in japanese "samishii nettaigyo"　淋しい熱帯魚　Ｋ－１6

[Luismendez33]

que pariguayo este video, jajajja

[TheGene500]

this song awsome after 25 years

[dnafreq]

I don't believe it... not for a minute...

[brownies4you]

My kids used to play this song. It was one of the few songs I could tolerate being played loudly.

[kitisak2504]

i love this song, may be more than 30 years ( so long time ago ).

[Shakeandbakejake07]

I'm going to be 21 this year, and I remember when dad picked me up from school in his work truck. This was always the tape he had in the player. Grew up on music like this, and still love it.

[JROCKER61]

This is a great song and its a shame they don't play this one at concerts anymore

[chrisrockspeoria]

WTF????? gary isnt playing a les paul???? that was strange to see.

[kutzbill]

I grew up 3 doors from Gary, and I remember some of the old ones he played, He was good even as a kid. His Mother license plate read "REO MOM".

He is a good guy.

[chrisrockspeoria]

i grew up im lake camelot. his mom lived theres in the 80s. i would always ride my bike in front of his moms house to see if i could meet him

[edugomh]

Primera vez que veo este video, la canción la recuerdo de mi niñez, que suerte que en ese tiempo si habían buenas canciones y yo los escuche, se extraña este tipo de música.

[pookers2000]

i don't remember if REO performed this live until after Dave Amato joined the band. I've seen them do this live with Dave performing the high harmonies.

[ErrikuStewart]

Fun song.

Kevin Cronin sounds a lot like Neil Sedaka in 'In Your Letter'.

[kutzbill]

I Never thought about that, but your right, he does!

[andresariel10]

I love this song, and have greatly missed it. when I was at universidad in Peru cayetano heredia I was in love she drive me crazy another girl but now I´m happy whit my wife

[smalltowngerl]

by far the nerdiest...and best reo song there is...

[sangnam99]

My favorite

[pixiehollow22]

Thanks for posting this video! I remember back when this first aired, loved it then, love it now! It was also good to see Gary the subject of a video for a change!

[joeardinger1111]

[3impersonators]

THANK-YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS! I love this video, and have greatly missed it.

[ronago]

I've heard this song a million times since its releasing in 1981 but i've never seen the official video until now.

Thanks a bunch for posting!

[mcmurrayfan26]
