He is not. He has a cover of Gregory Isaacs Night Nurse. Huge hit as well, but I'm aware why you all skip over this one

He sings this live pitch perfect even better than this recorded version. A master at his craft.

Watching young people discover the music of MY youth/teenage years always earns them a subscriber in me. Yeah, I get it... music continues to evolve. Nothing wrong with that. But these classics are timeless, and it's good to see younger people learning about them, and the meaning they had to us in our youth. It helps bridge the generation gap.

80s hair was very expressive and usually big.

Simply Red is one of the most soulful groups of the 80s. They had a lot of great songs, including 'Money's Too Tight To Mention.'

Simply Red (Mick Hucknall) is from Manchester, England. He's got that soulfulness that is infectious. Still singin' his heart out today too!

A true masterpiece, they don’t make music like they used to

Love this little brother. At 66 the music of my time still touches the young of today. I stand by what I've always said we had the best music. No auto tune just great story tellers. GOD bless you on your journey .

Mick Hucknall, one of the purest voices of the ‘80’s

Vocals are Mick Hucknall and trumpet is played by Tim Kellett. Kellett played with Simply Red for about six years in the mid 80s. This group from the UK was very talented and known for their “soul”. ❤️

its amazing how young these artists were so talented at such a young age.

He is one of my favorite singers. This guy can sing pure talent.

Listen, I was born January 19 70 so I grew up listening to simply red one of my favorite bands of all time. he is sheer genius

One of my fave smooth jams ever. His voice is amazing. Nobody like him.

From Aotearoa New Zealand, thankyou Twon for your reaction, I cried knowing the story behind the songs he writes, His story breaks my heart. I'm a grandmother and I wish I could give the boy a hug😢!!!

Simply Red is an amazing artist, and adored by many. You should check out his other big hit " If You Don't Know Me By Now" you will love it, I guarantee it. .

I've seen Simply Red 3 times absolutely superb live and a truly great voice

Now you need to watch a live performance to see how supremely talented Mick Hucknall is, e.g. at The Montreaux Jazz Festival, he nails it every time, even now at 60 years of age

I love having you young Black people visiting the music from my past . It actually is very touching. We were once very cool. 😎

This group is from England British and this is one of the most beautiful songs ever and ever. Don't ever judge a book by it's cover because this guy has a voice that's unbelievable just like the line... Holding Back The Years thinking of the fear I've had for so long when somebody hears listen to The Fear that's gone. FABULOUS

Hi Mick used to live round the corner from me, and I worked with his cousin too. He has the most outstanding voice and he's got the same broad Northern accent as me too !!!! Stay safe from Manchester UK xxx

I went to see Mick about 3 or 4 years back. He's nearly 60 now, and he still sounds as good as any recording he ever made. He is a national treasure for us folks over here.

This is one of my favorite songs of all time I was a child when it came out but my Dad was a huge fan of Simply Red so he played their music all the time Such a great reaction Love your channel ♥️

Simply Red is and always will be an amazing voice

I’m probably not your usual subscriber, I’m a 65 year old gran from the U.K. but I love to watch your reaction to music I listened to when I was your age. Excellent channel.

He’s from Manchester England. The Blue eyed soul boy. Saw him a few days ago here in Brighton England, his voice is the same 👌🏻

Man oh man oh man I love when you have to go back and hear it again.

Those shots of him remembering his traumas and then clutching/shaking his hand always get to me. You can hear the pain and frustration in his voice. Goes straight to my heart. 💔

It’s a trumpet of course but it has a mute in it and that’s why it has such a unique sound.

The live version in Australia a couple years back was incredible.

Another song by Simply Red is Sunrise. They sample Hall and Oates I Can't Go For That on the track!

They are a English band , this was filmed in England in Whitby where bran stoker wrote Dracula.

The singer is Mick Hucknall, he's from Denton, Manchester, England.

I remember an interview with him where they asked about his hair style, he touched it and smiled and said it's kinda like anarchy isn't it?

IF YOU DON'T KNOW ME BY NOW. Is another great song by SIMPLY RED

He British, born in Manchester uk His name is Mick Hucknall. The band is called simply Red

If you haven't heard these two yet you should also do his songs if you don't know me by now and money's too tight.

Simply Great ❣️❣️❣️🤗

Such a DEEEP song. Great vocal performance by Simply Red. A 'unique' voice.

God.... I Have Loved This Song For About 35 Years...... I Describe It “Tragically, Beautiful” Based On Truth- 💔 Keep Holding On! Mother Left Him As A Child With Overbearing Father. Hauntingly - I’m Captivated By This Song 🔥🔥🔥

This song still gives me goosebumps! Mick you're great❤

HE DOES HAVE SOUL IN HIM,,,,A GREAT REACTION

Saw these guys live at Toronto Canadian National Exhibition Grand Stand with the Blow Monkeys and headliner the Psycadelic Furs. Front row party!! Great memories.☺

Man he so much soul. I believe he is from Manchester, England. His cover song, If You Don’t Know Me By Now ✌️🤘🏻

Great choice. One of those songs that just takes it there

This song is deep...very touching

Reminds me of my grandma from Santa Monica. We named our grandparents after the city they lived in. He wrote this about his Mum and because of the neglect she left on him.. beautiful song..."nothing had the chance to be good, cause nothing ever could"

I love the saxaphone, that is a trumpet both are amazing Mick was born in Manchester England. He has so many hits and live he is great !

I remember laying on the beach chillin' many moons ago to this!

Simply Red "If you don't know me by now"...

Classic song.

You’ve picked a perfect British 80s Band, one of the best singers ever! ❤️🇬🇧

Precious reaction to an oldie but goodie! Thank you....good theme song for this life.

I believe he's from Great Britain. Very soulful.

Mick Hucknall is a very humble man. He had a tough go in life.

Simply Red......simply brilliant....🙂.

If you don't know me by now. I think that was his best song. He's from the UK. Loved him!!!

A dedication to my kids when I had to leave for some time because of their father, it will always make me shed so many tears.... Even though I can't rewind time I'm with them again just now I'm older they are older and alit has changed just wish I could hold them more so tight before my time is done....... But until then I'll keep holding on so tight... By the way this song was about his mom.... This is why I'm touched by this song..

Sadly his situation did not end as it did for your kids. His mother was a wrong un from what he has spoken of about her. He dedicated a song to his father for bringing him up on his own and sadly he never got re-married. Glad your and your kids got a happy ending. Every situation is different. Life is complicated.

So glad I was there to experience all the great music like this that came out in the 80s. This is a classic

Briton, British singer and still wonderful 👍❤️

Oh man! It’s so nice to watch you, just enjoining music - no matter what genre, decade or colour! It’s the magic of music that brings us together-like me a 40 year old woman from Vienna, austria (Europe- not Australia 😉) and an much younger u.s.-dude who normally would have nothing in common! ♥️

I love this song ❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶😎

Oh my God beutifull soulful anjelic heartfelt smooth flowing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😊 that's all I have to say

You must listen all their albums, specially from 1985 to 1992 including their live performance in Montreux and the live tour of the "Stars" album. You gonna be touched by many of the greatest song composed on those years.

Just amazing ❤️
