Even though I was born in 1965. Most of what we had around the house was Elvis records. I wasn't introduced to Roy until a few years later. What an amazing voice he has. I believe Elvis said that Roy had the best voice he'd ever heard. Or at least something similar.

Jack can pull anything off musically because he is genuinely unapologetically himself always.

That last line "Nobody loves no-one" is actually not a sad statement - it's a double negative!

@@vezokpiraka That’s the point. It’s impossible for that many KZreadrs to have never heard most of the songs they’re reacting to. The only exception is if they’re really young. The honest ones will admit that it sounds familiar and they recognize it, but have never sat down to listen to it.

He still tours!! His best song for me is "Blue Spanish Sky", absolutely love it! He even had his own TV show in the days!! He is amazing! He is from California.

There are a few times in the song where I believe a hear a hard "g" from the backup singers, saying "this girl is only gonna break your heart" and most times it is clearly "this world is only gonna break your heart". The first time through the lyrics, Chris subtly sneaks in the word "don't" as in "no, I don't wanna fall in love", thereafter he clearly sings "no I wanna fall in love", which shows a change in his feelings as he's being drawn in. To me, the entire song is about being drawn in to feeling love for another person when that other person is just stringing you along before dumping you and not caring that they've broken your heart and broken you as well. That's why even when the backup singers ARE singing "this world is only gonna break your heart", I've always taken it to mean that the world she's drawn him into will only break his heart. I've also always thought of the guitar work being symbolic of his situation. He (Chris) is slightly out of tune with the rest of the world because of how he's being manipulated. Of course, that's all opinion. I could be wrong!

Chris Isaak is from my hometown. We were pretty amazed and proud when he achieved success with this song/album. He had the voice, musical talent, movie star looks, and intelligence to make it big time. But in spite of that and some parts in movies, he always remained a pretty down to earth musician who prefers to make music and do small gigs. He's still making music and touring. Respect.

Watching your videos is like being there with you in the same room. I often find myself laughing and answering you out loud, and now drinking. Not to mention all the things I learn from your videos about voice and music in general. Thanks for these awesome videos. You rock!

Chris Isaak is just such a huge vocal talent on every song he does - fast or slow, happy or sad!! And the guitar is always great too. He's an old school crooner in style for some songs.

I cannot verify it, but I read that this video was filmed when Kyle was really struggling with depression and Jack swooped in and decided that this might help his friend feel a little better. If that’s true, it gives this video so much more gravitas. Instead of just a bit it’s actually a really sweet moment between friends. This video gives me such “two Labradors running and frolicking on the beach” vibes. I watch it often because it makes me feel so happy to see them so happy.

I saw Chris Isaak live last summer, and his voice is just as flawless in person--including the sustained note at the end of this song.

His answer was (and again, paraphrase from memory), "no, I dress like this for my fans. This is what they want to see me wear. I wear this for them." Great guy.

I'm commenting on what I _think_ you meant which is" But music rarely falls into the the _latter_ category. " Otherwise it looks like you're including both categories which would then be "These categories" and I'm pretty sure you meant "The latter category" . In any case its not written properly. It's confusing, but I get it I think. I think the positive spin the commenter gives it is fine if it's how he wants to look at it. For all we know it was written with that in mind.

Helena i s god damned timeless. She's 54, but still looks like an absolute million bucks. Danish genes, eh?

Just love the channel and the dichotomy of her love for voice and music, watching her melt into his voice and the then teaching exactly why? just plain cool. New appreciation for the performance that I wouldn’t have gotten otherwise.

This is one of those great songs that has its own universe that it pulls you into from the very first notes. Love vibe songs like this.

This song is timeless. Never gets old, never lose the magic ❤️Everytime I get hooked during the first tone and everytime I need to listen the whole song again in silence.

I watched Chris Isaac sing this song, live, many years later. He sounds the exact same. You can tell he’s a perfectionist and not just “winging it”.

100% his live voice is so unbelievably good!

I am continually in awe of her ability to think about the tonal qualities of those voices with the visual spectacle of those two videos in the background. That is focus!

This is the best!!! I love your first introduction to Chris Isaak! ❤ All the best of you comes out in this!

My grandmother heard me listening to the stone sour version years ago and said “that’s one of my favourite songs, who’s singing, they sing it beautifully” She was in utter shock when I told her it was the lead singer from Slipknot. She had previously referred to slipknot as “just screaming and noise”. I actually managed to get her to listen to some other more mellow Slipknot and Stone Sour thanks to Wicked Game.

I've heard a lot of people say the same about Nine Inch Nails, but Trent Reznor has some great range. When I get people to listen to Hurt or more acoustic songs that NIN has made, they're always amazed.

She is so amazing about the way she expresses other peoples expressions that it is truly other worldly. Thank you for what you do.

He has the voice all men would love and all women want to hear.

Chris Isaac was known, before this song, as a Rockabilly singer! His vocals are absolutely incredible! This song will always hit so hard! Absolute.... PERFECTION!!❤

Chris Issac" voice on this song reminds me so much of Roy Orbison. There is a wonderful live "studio" version of this. You put a smile on my face as always. Thank you. Thank you very much. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with friends and family.

Love your appreciation of good vocals, ❤️

This song has been covered soooo many times by so many different artists, a testament to its greatness… but the original will always be a classic and favourite. Blue Hotel is another beautiful n brilliant song of his. He definitely deserves greater appreciation and recognition than he has for both his vocal and guitar playing talent

Another great version that has amazing vocals is HIM's version Ville Valo is so underrated

My favorite video yet!! ❤love this fun side and the family at the end 😂

Elizabeth, I fully agree. We always saw influences of both Elvis and Roy Orbison in Chris' singing style.

What a totally unalloyed joy this was Elizabeth. Firstly, this is an amazing song and to see you fall head-over-heels in love with Chris Isaak's vocals was such a treat. Then to see you enjoying a beer and getting just slightly tipsy while listening to Tenacious D was delicious. Then, and this is the clincher, you only went and referenced the Bernouli theorem and as an Engineer who uses this all the time, this was (even more) music to my ears. All the best from a very happy Yorkshireman x

I remember when this song came out, I was 17. Some songs just speak to your soul… and this is one of them ❤️

As I'm seeing and listening to you react to the beginning of Chris Isaak, I'm just having a fantastic time! I haven't listened to him in years, and watching someone experience him for the first time is so much fun! Yeah... he can sing a little. Can't he? This is very much my own voice range, and I remember wishing for a long time that I had his tone quality and smoothness! So glad you enjoyed it!

I have seen Chris in concert a few times and love hearing this live. I couldn't wait for you to get to that long note he holds, it's amazing how long he can do it especially in concert when it's not the first song he sings.

I can't state enough how grateful I am to have grown up in the 80's and early 90's. So much of the music and movies from that era are classics. This song came out when i was 13, and every time i hear it to this day, it takes me back. I'm so glad I was able to enjoy this and so much more.

Oh my gosh, I just have to add to the group of people like myself who found this wonderful content in the last week and I have been enjoying every minute of your videos :D thank you for sharing such fantastic information and awesome vibes with some of my favorite songs ever!

Oh heck yeah. This cover is way too short, honestly. I kept listening to it because I wanted the full version!

I love this song. The story of this song is interesting. A girl Chris Isaak knew called him for a booty call one night. Before they met he wrote this song (in like 30 minutes) about how he didn't want to fall for her and she wasn't right or good for him. When they met, talking about this song was all he wanted to do. The song is about his conscious choice to not fall in love with her and the wickedness of the temptation. What's so great about the Tenacious D video is, once you've seen it, you can never un-see it.

Ha ha!! I love it! Wacka and wacka-wacka-wacka! I enjoy your channel and you so much. Thank you for being real and sharing some cheer with your fans, including Tenacious D. Out of all the singing I've done in my life, my favorite has been in choir. In my humble opinion, operatic singing is the most powerful and potent instrument on earth and I thank you for teaching all of us the intricate elements of that. Well done.

Best review ever!!! Love your channel.
