Forgot about 65 Love Affair. Good one.

I GO CRAZY spent 40 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. It peaked at # 7 in 1978. Paul was a very talented singer and songwriter who left us way too soon on April 22, 2008, he was 60. Other hits by Paul were, 65 LOVE AFFAIR, one of my favorites and quite an upbeat song, COOL NIGHT and SWEET LIFE.

Al, Those 40 weeks were a record at the time for longest run in the Hot 100. It slowly climbed the chart and hit its peak after more than 6 months. Fun fact: He wrote this song with Lou Rawls in mind to record it. But after the record label heard the demo he had recorded, it was so impressed that they decided to release it with minimal editing. Lou Rawls later did record a version, but it did nowhere near as well as Davis's.

Back in 1981, when I was 13-years old, I called the most popular AM radio station in my city and requested they play this song. I'll never forget the DJ's response. He scoffed at the idea of playing a song called "I Go Crazy" and seemed to imply that the song title alone was too negative to play over the airwaves. I never forgave him for that.

This is the song that everyone wanted to slow dance to in the late 70s and early 80s! Great blast from the past folks!!!

The man introducing Paul Davis is the very famous Rick[y] Nelson. I just read where it took this song 6-7 months, starting in Aug of 1977, to climb the charts to #7 in late March early April 1978. This is a real buzz for me, it was constantly on the radio when I was in college.

Slow dance song at all my high school dances. So romantic.

Beautiful song. Another thing they had back in the day was melodies! This is a softer song that starts getting under your skin.

So glad y'all found this. Paul Davis was a talented songwriter, blending soul with country in songs for artists like Juice Newton & Tanya Tucker, who had some success in the late 70's/early 80's as a singer also. I would suggest you also check out his songs "Sweet Life", "Cool Night", "65 Love Affair", "Love Me or Let Me Be Lonely" & "Do Right" (with showcases his gospel influences).

If you like Paul Davis you will love Cliff Richard. In a career spanning over 65 years, Richard has amassed several gold and platinum discs and awards, including two Ivor Novello Awards and three Brit Awards. More than 130 of his singles, albums, and EPs have reached the UK Top 20, more than any other artist. One of his biggest hits is We don’t talk anymore.. you guys should really check him out. Thanks.

“Cool Night” is worth checking out also. It’s literally one of my top 10 songs ever.

I haven’t seen the video yet but I know you will love this artist one of my personal favorites. You have to check out his song Cool night and 65 Love affair absolutely great songs!

Yes! Yes! Omg! I love this song!! ✌❤🎶

He looks like a Viking to me. I love this beautiful song.

I’m 66. I grew up listening to all his songs! Love the man and his music!

Im 50 now. I remember hearing this when I was 8 years old on my old transistor radio when it first got radio airplay. Been one of my favorite tear jerker songs ever since!! Love it!!

Amber got that look that all of us have when listening to this amazing love (lost) classic.

Now, that was a blast from my past! High school in the 1970's.... it all comes back with that song. Thanks!

My favorite Paul Davis song... Maybe my favorite song of all time, honestly is "Sweet Life" "Cool Night" is a good one, too, but pretty much everything he sings is good.

"Cool Night", "65 Love Affair" and "Sweet Life".....also great songs by the late Paul Davis, worthy of a reaction!!

I absolutely love this song

Normally I would never recommend a live version for any first reaction, but Paul Davis definitely nails this one! 65 Love Affair is another good one of his to check out.

A quintessential 1970s soft rock song. Another great song in the same genre is Ambrosia's 'How Much I Feel.'

Love this song and "Sweet Life". Another you might enjoy is Sammy Johns "Chevy Van"

Another awesome classic from Paul Davis: Cool Night

Sweet Life by Paul Davis. It is super sweet and you'll both love it!

When it’s great.. time cannot tarnish its depth

That was Rick "Ricky" Nelson introducing Paul Davis. Rick Nelson was born into show business - his parents were chart-topping Big Band performers who transitioned into radio and television personalities during the 1940s. As a teen during the 1950s, Ricky starred as himself, alongside his parents and brother, in the television hit 'The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet'. For years, each episode would conclude with a musical performance by Ricky Nelson and his band, in the style of his rockabilly idols Carl Perkins, Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash. His career continued into the 70s and 80s but tragically died in a plane crash in 1985. His first wife (Kristin Harmon) is the sister of actor Mark Harmon (NCIS, Chicago Hope, St. Elsewhere). Their daughter, Tracy Nelson was a very successful actress in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. Five years after Rick's death, his twin sons Gunnar and Matthew would become stars under the band name "Nelson", releasing the triple-platinum record 'After the Rain'.

This song spent 40 weeks (9 months and 1 week) on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1977-78.

This song seems suited to listen to just before sunset when it’s starting to stop drizzling

This song just brings back memories of an old boyfriend. I was driving behind him years ago and we both pulled into the same store parking lot. He got out of his car first and then we almost bumped right into each other. He was excited to see me and I had to tell him I was married with 2 little ones. Hes like, already? Well he didn't take our relationship very seriously. When I met my new boyfriend I kind of just accepted that he wasn't interested in pursuing our relationship. Too late. I think about him occasionally but he blew it! Good reaction video! You 2 bring the best songs to your channel! Buy the way this story happened alot of years ago!

This is such a great song. We had wonderful music in the 70s.

Listen to Paul Davis, Cool Nights! I Go Crazy has always been my favorite, but Cool Nights is incredible also.

This is one of my favorite songs. They actual album version has even more beautiful sounds. I see my sweetheart everytime hear this tune. 😍

I think of someone specifically when I hear this song. There is a certain part of the piano melody that has a deep tone that lifts upward after the verses and into the pre-chorus segment. Just an iconic moment.

The guy who said Paul Davis looked like an Allman Brother was Rick Nelson, who started on his parents' TV show in the 50s (The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet) and went on to become a pop singer. A decade later he had a song called "Garden Party" about how he wanted to play his new music but all anyone wanted to hear was his old stuff from when he was a teenager.

there's a lot of great singers passes by but this kind of songs would lasts forever!

Yes, We Love You both too. And you are completely correct. Make a point everyday, to make someone smile. There are a lot of people that do reaction videos, but to me, You both are the Best. I watch your videos every day! So far my favorite Reaction you have done is The Tom Tom Club Genius Of Love. That was the best dance song of 1981, I believe

The person who introduced Paul Davis was Ricky Nelson. America watched Ricky grow up as he was on a sit-com called "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet". Ozzie Nelson was his father, Harriet was his mother and his older brother, David, was also on the show. It was typical of the era, with the boys usually getting into something. Even though he was older than me by 15 years, through the magic of reruns I watched him grow up, too. So, he was an actor from the age of 8 and started recording when he was around 17. This made a nice story line for the tv show. Of course, it didn't hurt that he was drop-dead gorgeous and had a voice as smooth as honey. One of his first songs was, "Travelin' Man" and I think his last might have been "Garden Party". He did a cover of "I Will Follow You" and his voice was unbelievable. He was killed in a plane crash in 1985.

You're right Amber, it is really romantic. Love lost. Paul Davis, I loved your music RIP.

I love 70’s and 80’s male love songs being played in the radio during my overnight shifts in the hospital, so relaxing eventhough we are so toxic. Hahaha

Wow guys, this is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written!

This is an "after the relationship" song - "Hello, girl it's been a while"... "Getting over you was slow"... "They say old lovers can be good friends", etc.

To me, this is one of the best tunes of the 70s.

The guy who introduced him was Ricky Nelson,he was television first teen idol and singer. His parents were Ozzie Nelson a big band leader of the 30’s and 40’s and Harriet a singer in the 50’s and 60’s they had their own tv show featuring their songs David and Ricky called The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. In his teens Rick Nelson became a talented musician singer should check out Travelin Man and his later hit Garden Party
