I NEVER get tired of The Rascals aka The Young Rascals. All their songs are very groovy. (as we used to say lol) I was 13 when this song came out. ✌

My absolute favorite Rascals song

One very underrated 60s band. Their "Its A Beautiful Morning" is the greatest Saturday/Sunday song ever. Give it a listen. 👌

Asia & BJ, you'll love their "People Got to Be Free", "Good Lovin' " and "Groovin' "!!

Love your comments and how you appreciate this music! You are right, it is beautiful music!❤ Try Listening to "How Can I be Sure" It is another really great song by the Rascals

This is sixties band, hippies, pop no dress up ! Great group played into the seventies." it's A Beautiful Morning" another beautiful song by this group The Young Rascals to just The Rascals again great group.

Great reaction you guys! I love it when younger generations appreciate music from the 60's. It really was a revolutionary time in many ways.

Glad you enjoyed it

If listening to a song by the Rascals/Young Rascals doesn't make you feel better, nothing will! I didn't see other songs on your Playlist but if you haven't already, I think you'd LOVE all of the following magical tunes from this exceedingly talented group: It's a Beautiful Morning Groovin' How Can I Be Sure People Got to Be Free Lonely Too Long Good Lovin' Want a great evening? Settle in and listen to them one after the other!

Great list, but I would recommend they listen to these in reverse order.....I think people like to hear the rockers first, then get to the more mellow ones!

Very STRONG Motown Influence in this one. Felix Cavalarr had a SOULFUL voice!

The Rascals, formerly, "The Young Rascals," had a sound similar to the "Motown Sound," but they weren't trying to copy it, it's just that soul is soul, and they had it. Great 60s Band. So many hit songs. Good memories for us 65 and overs. God Bless

Asia and BJ, the 60’s are a goldmine of hits 🔥 Keep on the journey👊🏻

First time I ever heard the rascals 1967, at the beach on a portable radio. This is my growing up years that graduated from high school. What great memories, and the good music to go along with it!

Oh yes , the music of my youth. These guys were smooth as heck when I was in high school . Im now about to turn 72 , and it still sounds great today.

Great time to grow up .all we had was am radio,but they'd be playing these hits 1after another 😊. Thanks for memories.

Another one of the great 60's groups. They started out as "The Young Rascals" but later were just known as "The Rascals". They were considered rock & blue-eyed soul. They had a lot of hits such as "How Can I Be Sure", "I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore", "You Better Run", "I've Been Lonely Too Long", "Good Lovin'", "People Got To Be Free", "A Beautiful Morning", "It's Wonderful" etc.

Soul music is based in feelings and feelings never go out of style. Great song choice and reaction.

One of the first "blue-eyed soul" bands; still love 'em. Hearing them on the radio when I was about 11 opened up a new world, in a way :)

Real "feel good" music! The Rascals/Young Rascals have a number of great hits like this. Got to see them as they were starting out, still playing small gigs. It was a private function, they were VERY young, but had swag even then. Thanks for your reaction.

The Lovin' Spoonful is another great group

if you don't know who these guys are...dig in, they're sooooooo good!!

My son is in “Groovin, a tribute to the Rascals”. They’re 14-17 years old. They perform sometimes with Eddie Brigati from the Young Rascals. It would be crazy if you guys would hear a song from them.

What a great band they were . A girl like you one of my favorites.

Find some live footage of the Rascals and check out the style of their drummer, Dino Danelli. One Sharp Man! RIP Dino.

LITTLE RASCALS HAD SOME GREAT HITS!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍🎹🎹🎹🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤🎤👍👍 "COME ON UP" "I AIN'T GONNA EAT OUT MY HEART ANYMORE" "GROOVIN'" "LONELY TOO LONG" "GOOD LOVIN'" "YOU BETTER RUN" "PEOPLE GOT TO BE FREE"👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤

They weren't the Little Rascals. They were the Young Rascals and the the Rascals!

The greatest blue eyed soul band of all time. Try them doing "Lonely Too Long", "How Can I Be Sure", "Good Lovin' ", and of course "Groovin' ", their giant hit.

I saw the Rascals live and they were fabulous. 😊

They were a great band from the sixties. Their drummer, Dino Danelli, is a top tier drummer. I recommend reacting to The Young Rascals playing Been Lonely Too Long on the Ed Sullivan Show. It showcases Dino. Another is when they sang Mickey’s Monkey on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Growing up you look for something different than your parents stuff to become an individual . Later when you become YOU and not just their child its then ok to LISTEN. I have always said there is a difference between HEARING and LISTENING. PLUS. Lets admit it. This stuff is BETTER! LOL Growing up in this era, I couldn't wait to get up the next day and turn on the radio to hear what would be new and mind blowing.

BJ, your comment about describing a man's love for a woman is spot on. ❤

This is a "desert island" band for me. If I were marooned on an island and could only have three albums, one of them would HAVE to be The Rascals. A favorite band for 55 years.

The 60's & 70's had some great music. Awesome reaction.

Yes! Thank you!

Felix Cavaliere is one of the greatest singers ever. Their in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and surely deserve being there. Eddy Brigatti another great singer is in the group tho Felix mostly takes lead. Very many good songs. Groovin, Good Loving(probably their biggest hit), People gotta be Free, I've been Lonely too Long. Eddy sang How can I be Sure, great song!!

The session studio musicians are Outstanding, true professionals!.

The first band i saw in concert when I was 14.

My very 1st concert...I was 12. 😊❤

RIP DINO DANELI A GREAT DRUMMER

I liked BJ’s reaction to singing at the start of the song “we are talking about 1967”

A RAY OF HOPE, MY WORLD. THE YOUNG RASCALS.

So glad that you finally found these guys. What a great rabbit hole to go down! Check out more from them. A great example of blue eyed soul! They definitely got it goin on.

" May,I have this dance"(Class of 71)

MUSIC CROSSES LINES OF EVERY KIND❤❤❤

They are so great…check out their songs…midnight hour,slow down,ain’t gonna eat out my heart anymore,and probably one of their best is love is a beautiful thing

Incredible love song, epic!

Good for you, BJ! You've got it. Really insightful!

I remember when this song came out. I was 12 years old. Check out "It's a beautiful morning" and "Groovin"

Asia, BJ, the young rascals, had all kinds of soul. Check out good Lovin by them.

This Album Time Piece is such a great album of my childhood. I wore it out. I need another copy to spin.

how can i be sure!! sung by eddie brigati of the rascals

Check out some of their appearances on the Ed Sullivan Show ..The lead singer , keyboard player Felix Cavaliere was from Pelham, NY ..BJ is correct the time was school dances , and summer days ..Great Band with many hits

Blue eyed soul at its best!

There's a good version of it on The Ed Sullivan Show that was our internet

The further back you go, the music is cooler. BTW, 1967 is full of incredible songs. Perhaps the best year in music.

Dynamic Duo! Please react to more great songs by this Hall of Fame group. Felix Cavaliere is one of the greatest singers and still performing

Nice hearing your experiences.

LOTTA LOVE IN 60'S...❤❤❤❤ THEY JUST DON'T WRITE LOVE SONGS LIKE THAT ANYMORE!!❤❤

You absolutely nailed it - “that’s how a guy feels about a girl”

Yeah, If you were ever looking to warm up a girl back in the day, The Rascals & Van Morrison were always a sure bet.

Check out Lonely Too Long by The Young Rascals

This band was also classified as rhythm and blues

They started out as The Young Rascals and later became The Rascals. The album cover you have as your thumbnail is Time Piece one of the Greatest albums of all time. You need to check out and react to other songs on this masterpiece.

HarriBest said he could picture Marvin Gaye singing this as it's very Motownish

I never heard this song before and did not know there were two songs with this title. The Smithereens had a song also called A Girl Like You. Sounds COMPLETELY different from this song.

Sixties were great, 67 was the best, and this is an example.. Try "good Lovin' " from the ed Sullivan show and watch an amazing drummer!

Naaa Asia! You are thinking of the 50's. 67 was hippy time. This is "Blue eyed Soul". People mainly freeform danced. Though their was "The Jerk" The Swim" The Monkey" that some would learn. We just let the music take us. "Let your freak flag fly" and all that.

Thats why it was called "grown folks music" 😂
