Suddenly I’m a young teen again. Haven’t heard this in decades. At a time when Charlie’s Angels was the detective norm, Starsky and Hutch was much more raw. The episode Hutch tried to detox cold turkey was intense.

R.I.P To A Great Actor David Soul,You Will Be Missed

RIP David. My tv boyfriend. I'm gutted you've left us to go sing with the angels. My favorite of his songs is 'Tomorrow Child' - a lullabye which he co-wrote for his children.

RIP David Soul. Born David Richard Solberg in Chicago, Illinois on 28 August 1943. Died in London, UK on 4 January 2024.

Memories of my childhood!!! I sure miss music from the 70’s & 80’s….great music!!!!

David did alot of Stunts on the early eps- he injured himself but always carried on like the athlete he was. He is in pain constantly now but manages it well, continues to work at 78.

Songs from this era are timeless.... The arrangements, the lyrics, the harmonies and melodies just create a wall of sound that makes the productions so lush...

Oh my lord...you've made a international trucker from the uk happy....I'm on tour with the band queen ,and this takes me back to when a young teenager....

Loved "Starsky & Hutch" (cop series 1975 - 1979) David played "Hutch". David also had a singing career with hits such as this, "Silver Lady" "Don't Give Up On Us Baby" & "This Time (I'm Going In With Eyes Wide Open")

I absolutely love this song by David Soul, I was only 12 years old when this beautiful song hit the airwaves back in 1976..I can close my eyes while listening 🎧 to this and transport my self back to the happier years of my childhood..It was a great decade to be alive throughout the 70's..Thank you both so much for sharing, you guys are the greatest..🎵🎶🎤🎸❤️

This and silver lady Beautiful songs from David Soul

Me too memory lane at our teen high school days 🤫 It is a beautiful heartfelt song Australia 💕 Christina

Love Starsky and Hutch with David Soul and Paul Michael Glaser great series 1970 ,

I remember when this song came out and when it was played at the skate ring the floor would be packed with couples skating.

May David RIP, he passed away today at 80. He was born in my hometown Chicago. He had 6 kids, I did not know that I am a 70's kid, we watched the show sometimes. It dealt with social issues of the time.

David Soul was such a handsome guy with such a beautiful voice. It's to bad he didn't sing more songs and act in more shows and movies.

Don’t give up on us David, RIP...

Thank you for playing another great love song.

Yes, our Generation had a wide variety of the best music! I loved David, Barry Mannilo but also Pink Floyd & Led Zep as well as Southern Rock- Disco but just for dancing in clubs. We are lucky to have wonderful memories. My husband & I listen to music outside with a glass of wine almost every night. Great for forgetting what a hard life it really was & still is. Bless the Beasts & the Children for they have no say.

I have always loved this song and David. He starred in the TV show Starsky and Hutch. He played Hutch. It was one of my favorite shows as a kid. Thanks for reacting to This one. This is also in my 70’s playlist.

This one of the many songs remembered foundry in the heart of this “old man” but I never knew it was sung by one half of the 70s cop team Starsky and Hutch! How cool thanks for educating me.

Before he was "Hutch", he was in a show called "Here Come the Brides ". One of the other actors in that show, Bobby Sherman, also had a brief music career. You may want to check out "Julie Do You Love Me" or "Cried Like a Baby".

Yes if he couldn't made it as a star the guy had a hell of a voice

One of the best songs of the 70s. David Soul was better known as officer Ken Hutchinson on TVs Starsky and Hutch

Beautiful song and a beautiful couple reacting to it; your reactions are so heart-felt - I love it!

Yes, he hated Hollywood-it was & is all about money & short cuts . He wanted recognition for" UNSUB" but it was too ahead of its time. Michael Mann was the producer and later he developed "Miami Vice". David was brave enough to take on the role of Rick in the TV show "Casablanca" Bogart fans never gave him a chance but he was Phenominal- David left for Paris ,then London where he still resides.

He was "Hutch" on the TV show, Starsky and Hutch! I always enjoyed this song. Sometimes u just need some mellow music in your life...at least I do. 😊

Love this song, another that was out around the same time was "If You Leave Me Now" by Chicago, if you guys haven't reacted to it I strongly recommend it.

One of those very memorable songs from my youth. Thank you very much. 🙂

He was in my favorite show of all time!! Starsky and Hutch with David and Paul Michael Glasser (who are still best friends 2 this day) u should watch Starsky/Hutch

He was a singer before he was a actor he couple good this was great song

David was such an extraordinary man and there will never be anyone as captivating as he was so grateful my late grandmother introduced me to David soul's music because he was more than Hutch to me ❤ RIP thanks for eight wonderful years on Twitter the only reason for being on that platform that long you are loved and missed ❤

David Soul is an actor & singer. I remember watching him on the series "Here Come The Brides" (1968-1970) & on the series Starsky & Hutch (1975-1979). He also had a successful career as a singer with "Don't Give Up On Us" & "Silver Lady" in 1977.

Wow, this was out when I was in high school and I just turned 60!

He was dreamy.

Me and my friends seen him at a bar on Sunset Blvd circa 1993. The bar was otherwise empty. We were big fans of Starslky and Hutch whern we were kids. I told my friend not to bother him thinking he would be tired of being approached. My friend insists. I tell him to at least address him as David. He goes over and says "Hi Hutch" David turns round and is upset and says , "Have I got a sign on my back?" Touchy drunk.

Well, ya' know he wasn't very happy at that time of his life. His new wife suddenly turned Born Again Christian-imagine how he felt ? He had enough of the Church as a place to find solace-he never did & his dad was a famous Lutheran Minister. He loved her and the kids dearly but Hollywood screwed him too. He no longer got calls for good roles like in the '80s either so he moved to Paris & then London where he lives happily & still working He is Like Hemmingway a great lover of Adventure And Women- a good soul

Yeah...This Is Still A Lovely Song!

That’s a good song! 🎶

if you are a true romantic..... only love wins 🎶

Starsky and Hutch was a hugely popular "cop show" in the 70s. David Soul was Hutch and Paul Michael Glaser was Starsky. Some episodes are on You Tube if you want to check it out.

I like the bit where he becomes a motorcycle cop and hunts vampires.

Hutch !! I grew up on Starsky and Hutch. I remember when this song came out I was like ..WTH he sings also 😂

In Here comes the brides, David Soul was an actor first, but Bobby Sherman was a singer first before he played on Here comes the brides,television show, I think 🤔

Not bad for a TV star. Wondered if you would ever react to this nice song.

RIP David Soul

Forgot about this one. Beautiful ❤️!

God bless you both for this thoughtful comment on David's song.

Thank You Shaun & Mel for your beautiful reaction and coments- I shared it to my "It's all about David Soul "site- It was #1 in april 1977 and still comes through in 2022- so happy you loved it- He had 2 # 1 hits and 1 # 2 but theres much more to him including other songs & duets along with movies & TV. I personally think this song is to his 7 year live in Partner who supported his career from 1972-1979 as bad guy in "Magnum force" & Detective Ken Hutchinson in "Starsky & HUtch" Multitalented Man

Oh my goodness I had the biggest crush on him when I was about 14. Loved Starsky and Hutch. One week I was in puppy love with Starsky and the next week it was Hutch. I thought they were so cool. If you have never watched the show you should give it a try, its really good. I even had his poster on my wall! When this song came out I played it a million times sigh! Such happy memories. This song still stands the test of time. It even means more to me now that I am older and can really understand the depth of the lyrics.

David Soul and Paul Michael Glaser they were best friends in real life and starts Starsky and Hutch

This is a great song. David Soul was in the series Starsky and Hutch back in the 70's. Great heartbreak song. I always thing of May Macgregor's "Torn Between two Lovers'... that was also released around then.

There's an old Johnny Cash song no one seems to know anymore, you two would love it, Johnny Cash's *"A Thing Called Love."* Its too good to miss, to never hear, and i'd LOVE to see/hear your reaction to it! Thx, love your channel!

Another 70s gem you should react to is Alice Cooper's "You and Me".

I still want starsky and hutch to this day ,I enjoy your channel very much.

Written by UK's Tony Macaulay, who, along with John Macleod, penned many hits for various artistes, including Love grows, Baby, now that I found you, Let the heartaches begin, Build me up buttercup, That same old feeling, Something here in my heart, Baby, make it soon, I can take or leave your loving, Home-loving man, Silver lady, Back on my feet again, Smile a little smile for me - a long list. And many more with other collaborators.

David was first a singer who accidentally turned actor. He has a very empathetic nature & knows what ordinary citizens go thru. He is still an activist for Dogs , he helped with Animal voice to save some asian dogs from meatmarkets but succeeded in making these poor dogs be treated humanely before killed and eaten. He was an activist for Syrians when they were masacurred & trying to migrate to Europe. My favorite movie he did was "Key to Rebecca" but it's only avaiable on Amazon Prime .

He was born in Chicago. His Dad was religious affairs director for US government helping the German people reunite after WW2-so he spent his formative year witnessing tragedy and hope in Berlin. Then the family resettled in South Dakota, then Mexico City, he ran away after a year hitchhiking to Minnasota where his sweetheart lived, then NYCity and LA -he moved to Paris then London to do stage work , some TV & movies but mainly making more albums

I always loved David Soul's voice, even at a time when it wasn't hip to like him. This was number one in the UK and the US. The line you picked up on, 'the angel and the dreamer' always hit me really hard. Five more to try: Silver Lady Going In With My Eyes Open Playing To An Audience Of One (my favourite) Nobody But A Fool Or A Preacher Mary's Fancy The last two are rather different from the others, which are romantic ballads in the style of 'Don't Give Up On Us'. Oh, I have to add Topanga as well, love that song. Written by David as well. Do you know, just the other day I thought to myself, 'Never hear any David Soul on the reaction channels' and suddenly here you are. Please listen to some more and let's hope other people pick up on him. You know who else I never hear? Only one of the best songwriters ever, Neil Sedaka! I hope you'll take this suggestion on board with one of these five: Laughter In The Rain New York City Blues The Hungry Years That's When The Music Takes Me The Immigrant (one of the best songs ever written, I think) Thanks fo taking me back in time, great show.
