In interviews Huey Lewis credits the harmonies and arrangements from Mutt Lange, who wrote this song. Huey Lewis and members of the News were in Clover 🍀, a Bay Area 🌁 band before it became Huey Lewis and the News. Mutt wrote and produced their final album.

This song is pop perfection, Huey Lewis & The News best song and in my humble opinion one of the best songs of all time. Love this song my favourite from the group, it just makes you feel so good when you hear this track.

I’d forgotten about Doing It All For My Baby, what a great song! I always hold a light for a song from their 1991 album Hard At Play called We Should Be Making Love. It keeps the formula of their best 80’s songwriting alive into the 90’s but the band were losing popularity then so it isn’t as well known as it should be

Y'all are one of the only reaction channels that actually react the Huey Lewis and the News so I thank y'all for that. They are one of my favorite bands from the 80's. Huey is easily one of my favorite voices

This kind of song exemplifies the 80's for me. For me it was the positive, hopeful decade, and much of the music was too.

Fun fact: during that break, each time a band member comes into frame, their instrument is highlighted in the song! Guitar, sax, drums, keyboard, and bass.

Pop music from each decade is just pure fun. Never need to apologize for loving pop music.

Loved these gentlemen singing the National Anthem... beautiful Check out I WANT A NEW DRUG next... lotsa good quality music from Huey Lewis and The News.

This is my favorite Huey Lewis And The News song. I fell in love with it when it came out and love it even more now!

My first concert was in the early 80s when I saw Heart on their "Private Auditions" tour. Huey Lewis and the News opened for them. Nobody knew who they were and at first the crowd even booed them. Then their guitar player started shredding and the horns started wailing. By the time their set ended, the crowd gave them a standing ovation. The rest for Huey Lewis and the News was rock history. There are a slew of hits from this group. I would take a listen to "Heart of Rock N Roll" too.

I happened to see a music video that Huey Lewis and The News put out from their first album in 1980. I was impressed and thought they were so, so close to having a great formula figured out. I thought I'd better keep an eye on them. Then their second album came out and everybody knew who they were. I'm not very good about spotting future stars but I nailed it that time.

Huey Lewis is awesome!!!

I've loved Huey since I first heard him, but I decided to find some reactions and am falling in love all over again

LOL how does she just lay there without cracking up I'd be dying laughing

Huey and the boys were big fans of 50s and 60s music which is where a lot of their harmonies come from. The even did a whole album of nothing but covers of 50s and 60s songs.

I saw the group in 1987. One of the songs they did (I can’t remember which, sadly) was sung completely a cappella, with the exception of a drum machine, and the harmonies were as tight as they could be. I was very impressed.

80s music, great memories. My kids were young, and everyone I loved was still alive.

Oh yes! The first hit from them, and probably still my favorite. Was lucky to see them live early on, and meet them backstage as well -- Huey and the boys are awesome.

Funny thing is that I heard the retro American Top 40 with Casey Kasem yesterday morning from April of 82 and this was in the top 5 today in 82

I gave Chris (the guitar player) their “Picture This” album on vinyl to autograph. He laughed and said “Wow, we don’t even own copies of this anymore! “ Didn’t think he was going to give it back! Lol. The whole band was so sweet and cool.

So glad you got to Huey Lewis and the News and my favourite song of theirs!

PERFECT VOICE HUEY !!!!! INCREDIBLE HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS !!!!

You have got to listen to " It's Alright" or "Bad Is Bad" by Huey. The harmonies are off the hook. "It's Alright," has a 60's street corner vibe and is sung acapella. "Bad Is Bad," has a bluesy jazz vibe, but the vocals are tight, and the music is almost secondary. They really sound great.

I was so head over heels for this band back in the day. Saw them in concert twice and had the biggest crush on Huey, what a hottie! Anyway SO many great songs from them, you guys gotta check out Workin for a Living (banger), If This Is It, Walking on a Thin Line and my all time fav Heart and Soul.

These guys are just a great band, top to bottom... great songs, classic rock rhythms, brilliant musicians... and they HAVE FUN...

My faves are " Heart and Soul" and "Jacobs Ladder" I love them. They are a good vibe band.

This is, by far, my favorite Huey Lewis and The News song.

Huey Lewis "Heart and Soul".

Not only a great, great band...their videos were hilarious for the early days of MTV. :) Could tell they didn't take themselves too seriously!

Their best for me was ‘I want a new drug’. But all their 80s hits were fun! Good to see u enjoy!

J & Amber, the REASON music from the 60's 70's and 80's sounds so good is because these were artists that had to compete for a record contract based upon their voices, artistry, musical talent and a mass appeal. The record companies controlled the industry and they selected artists and groups based upon TALENT. There WERE some groups that were just pushed out there because of some gimmick, but the vast majority of the music was being made by the cream of the crop. Now days, ANYONE can release music on the web and it shows in the multitude of so-so music and talent.

One of my favorite Huey Luis songs Reminds me of my dad

They were the first band i saw as a teen...I think i was about 17 years old.....They were an amazing band live.....Criminally underrated....I play that song nearly every day....It would cheer anyone up.

Finally! 😱😱😱 Love it! "HEART AND SOUL" IF you haven't ❤ you guys!

A great song. Glad you picked it. Another great song by Huey is "If This Is It" 👌 👏

Great band loved them growing up.

Huey Lewis and the News were my musical nemesis in the 80s... They were so popular, and I couldn't figure out why. Then I saw a live video of them, and oh my god they were so awesomely good live. On the radio, hit after hit after hit. Who knew that it was all tongue-in-cheek?

I love Huey Lewis & The News. They have great songs that made the 80's the 80's. Heart and Soul, I Want A New Drug, and It's Alright (sung a cappella) are awesome songs!

They have so many great songs. The message is always great.

I've always loved Huey Lewis and the News, good memories of good times.✌❤🎶

Just a fun song! Great guitar, harmonies, sax...

Huey Lewis and the News are one of the most under appreciated & disrespected bands of all time. The fact that they’re not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame yet is a disgrace. I know there are other musicians that deserve it more and likewise haven’t been inducted either, but considering some of the musicians that are in there now, Huey Lewis and the News deserve to be in there as well.

J & Amber, you will LOVE their "Heart And Soul", "If This Is It" and "Working For A Living" !!! I used to play their first album cuts on the radio station!

The entire "Sports" album is an 80s classic.👍👍😄😄😄😄😄

Huey Lewis and the news are great!!!

Their song "Naturally" and their performance of "The Star Spangled Banner" are some of their best harmonies. So many great hits from them for you to catch up on.

Many many more hits to go for this band. They were solid throughout the 80s.

I have seen countless top bands from the 80s/90s, in their primes, and Huey Lewis & The News was the best live band I have ever seen.

My favorite by this group! Oh my former teenage heart. 😂

Love Huey Lewis what an amazing Singer their Most poplar signature hit We all know is "Power of Love" From Back to the Future which earned them their First U.S. Billboard 100 #1 thats the Song that Made them who they are They then went on to make other Smash hits like Stuck With you and more 👌👌

Loved them in concert! Have you done his song "I Want A New Drug" Very upbeat!

Love Huey Lewis & The News. They have so many great songs and I always smile when I hear them. 😊

Just noticed how excited Amber got when the sax came in. Funny and sweet! I love how J reacts to the harmonies and melodies. U guys are as awesome as Huey!!

Love IT! Realize you younger folk, WE had BOTH Huey Lewis AND Hall and Oates at the SAME time! H&O more cutting edge, and Huey Harmony, often with a more basic Love & Fun approach to their songs! Couldn't beat it THEN, and can't beat it NOW, so thanks for the selection! :) And I'm sure everyone saw you swoon, Amber, when the SAX fired up! :) GUYS, once in a while, even though your channel is a 'New Reaction' one, you can slip in something you liked back in the day too. At least that's my opinion. :)

Huey Lewis and the News are great, super 80's rock n roll...easy on the ears and good for feet tap'n.

They sound just as good in concert... amazing group

Such a feel good song - so catchy and infectious - you just can't help but sing along to it. Great music, romantic lyrics, tight harmonies, a peppy sax solo, Huey's soulful vocals and the band's whole 50's-era vibe with an 80's flair makes this song impossible to listen to without smiling and elevating your mood. One of their best songs if not the best (it's certainly my favorite by them). Oh, and I loved how excited Amber got when she discovered there was a sax solo in the song, too! See? You just can't help but love it... ❤️ 🙌 ♥️

I saw them in concert & they are freaking AMAZING!! You can NEVER go wrong w/any of their songs.... just love them!!

You will love their song Naturally. It’s a bit of a throwback to Doo-Wop.

First concert I ever went to was Heuy Lewis after his album "Sports" came out. 1984. Great times.

Haha !!! ALL of their videos are fun. So were their concerts! They were so awesome. Their a capella was not famous, but they put some out there. Soooooooooo good !!!!!!!

This was their first hit. I remember when Mtv debuted this song.

I haven’t heard this one in years! Such a happy song. Thx guys!

Was a teenager throughout the 80's such a different world than today. Society was the polar opposite of today. Love your reactions and the genuine smiles say it all. These are my generations oldies, love to see younger people appreciate the older stuff. 55 now where does the time go 😮. Peace to you both......

You couldn't turn on a radio in 83 or 84 without hearing them. Huge song.

"Workin' for a Livin'" is another pre-Sports Huey Lewis tune with lots of infectious energy. Worth checking out if you loved this one.

Huey Lewis & the News have a great song “Walking on a thin line”

Huey Lewis and his band were /are great. I was a fan when they performed ( also a musician). Their harmonies were perfect and that Les Pal jr. guitar does it well, alo the tenor sax. Great band, Huey , keyboards. bas , guitar and sax.

Brings back some great memories,love this song

It's so easy to love Huey Lewis and the News. I was all over the place in my musical tastes in the 80s, which were really formative for me (from age 10 to 18 years old during that decade). One band that was always part of my love of music was Huey, even when I listened to mainly metal (Iron Maiden, Dokken, Motly Crue, etc) or to Synth Pop (Duran Duran, Erasure, Pet Shop Boys, A Flock of Seagulls, etc)...the sweet spot was down the line rock and roll...and Huey was always there. A song of his that I really loved, but was never released as a single was a song called "Naturally". It is a throwback to the 1950s Doo-Wop sound, acapella, and the harmonies are incredible! Here's the link, from the 'FORE!' album...'Naturally' kzread.info/dash/bejne/d2Vnzq17ksrFltY.html

80s hit machine. Check out: If This Is It, I Know What I Like, The Power of Love, Back in Time, Hip to be Square, Jacob's Ladder - all stellar tunes.

So many hits from Huey Lewis and the News- just one after the other in those days. All over the radio.

Nearly 40 years later and I remember every single lyric. What a great memory. Great song.

I love Huey Lewis and the News!! Other real good, catchy songs are "Heart and Soul", " Stuck with You", "Working for a Livin", "I Want a new Drug", "Doing it all for my Baby", "If This is It", "Back in Time", "Hip to be Square"!!

I love that you’re listening to pre-Sports songs. 😊👍🏼 Their two earliest albums were like that. They are like one of those early doo-wop groups you’d hear on the corner, singing for anybody that passed by back in those days. After Sports, they got a bit more slick. They really are just a group of fun guys Edit: If you’re looking for something a little darker, deeper by them, react to “The Only One”. It’s a look at how we see our childhood heroes when they’re at the top….and when they fall from that perch.

Huey Lewis & The News, Are The Best 💯 Period

My first concert ever that I went to. They were in it. 😀

I still say " I Want A New Drug" and "Bad Is Bad" and "Stuck With You" are the top 3 singles by these guys. Of course this is opinion. I have no idea the sales for all their many hit singles

I love this song and Huey Lewis and the News! I forget if you’ve done “Power of Love” yet or nor but that’s one of their most famous from their Back to the Future album. A couple of my favorites I love are “If This is It” and “Stuck With You”….gotta do them! Thanks for the reaction!

This is one of those songs you don't think about for years but when you hear it again you remember how much you loved it.

Huey Lewis and the News is so mid-80s, I suddenly found myself wearing a Members Only jacket with the sleeves pushed up... *_the gray one._* (believe me, people who grew up in the 80s know that the gray one was the one _everyone_ wanted)
