This is Driving With Todd and I'm Todd. I love music. It is sort of my life.
On my channel you will hear many different genres of music. I react to groups and songs I have never heard before, usually suggested by my viewers. I also react and/or review groups and songs that I love from my past. When I cover a song from my past, I try to relate it to what was happening in my life at the time. This is sort of like story time with Todd.
I normally do not talk over the soundtrack of the video I am reacting to, but instead stop the video to talk about what I have heard to that point. The reason I rather stop the video then talk over it is I want to hear every note played and sung by the band. I can also give my thoughts with some detail during these stop breaks.
I hope you give my channel a try. If you like what you hear and see, please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE. Thank you!
Peace out baby!

Their voices meld together. Thanks🎉
Their live album is the definition of 'Heavy Rock.' It almost sounds scary at times with their unique vocal.
Love this band they are brilliant!😊😊😊
As an Australian Vietnam Vet, it really pisses me off to see the majority of images in the clip are of Americans. Either too lazy or ignorance shown by the person who put the clip together. The title is actually A Walk in Light Green and refers to the colour that forested areas are shown on tactical maps. I really liked your comments Todd, it's no fault of yours about the clip. Thank you.
Mushroomhead came out with 2 new songs. One is called “Fall in Line” and the other is called “Prepackaged”. Then the band As I Lay Dying has also 2 new songs. The first one is “Burden” and the other one is “The Cave We Fear to Enter.” Plus check out some of these songs out by Imminence. Some songs like “Continuum”, “Chasing Shadows”, “Alleviate”, “Heaven Shall Burn”, “The Sickness”, “Paralyzed”, “Heaven in Hiding”, and “Ghost”…… These bands are amazing. I’m sure you did some of these bands or maybe even all of them. Any of them that you didn’t do. Could you please check the ones you haven’t done yet. I apologize. Could you please check the ones you haven’t done yet. Thanks ❤️🤘🏼❤️! Derrick
SOUTHERN METAL 🎸💘
❤ LILIAC ❤
Broad Australian accent😂
They were the training camps in Australia.
Was it not Steven Wilson who remixed?
Hi @alexanderewing3779 - Great catch!!! I have no idea what I was thinking when I wrote "Tom Wilson". I knew it was Steven, but obviously my fingers did the walking and took me to the wrong name. Thanks for letting me know. Keep rockin' ...
Love how you think it a live version but look at he bass and the keyboard an and the guitar there is no cables coming out of it to the amp. I know that she is lip syncing to this version of a pre-recorded studio track. You should really learn to look at to sign of live performances.
I bought this album Crimes of Passion when it came out all those years ago. I was 15 and I absolutely fell in love with this version. I played over and over. Pat's just amazing.
Love this song. Love the original too! 70s reggae rock and punk was/is the best!!! The Clash gets a lot of respect for doing reggae. They put a lot of people on! Most only know Bob Marely and MAYBE Dennis Brown and Peter Tosh when it comes to 70s reggae. Theres hardly any reaction videos to this song. Like 2? Everyone wants mainstream yet 70s reggae and dub was HUGE in the U.K. in the 70s and is still massive in the reggae club's dancehall scene today. Thanks for posting this!!! The Clash bridged the gap when it was a time where racial tensions were high. Love them and ALL their music.
You asked about the instruments. If Dan doesn't list other musicians on the video, then he did all the instrumentation himself. He plays guitar, keyboard, and, of course, harmonica. He does the drums digitally.
Check out delusion it their others new single. It heavy
Thank god there was a twin-neck guitar in that film clip. Otherwise it would have been sensible.
Agree with you, mate. A good album, but a phenomenal song.
This is the original performance and to this day the best one! I love the one of Ted Newley but this is a bomb!
Hi Todd, Would you be able to check out: Cold Chisel - Choir Girl nzoz1979 ? The song is about a teenage abortion from the perspective of a carer. ''Looking like a choir girl'' is a metaphor for being in a hospital gown.
Yep! She's growing up and a truly beautiful young lady! The younger brothers are also growing up fast! And i really appreciate the diversity in this band, lots of bands sound good but when you hear bands that can't seem to diversify , then all their music sounds fairly redundant, not with LILIAC their originals are continually different, now if i could just get them to remake LIE TO ME by JOHNNY LANG my world would be almost complete HAHA!!!! Thanks for this reaction! Keep the liliac coming 👍
Great song! They just get better and better
I started following Liliac when they were very young. They have all grown into amazing artists and my God Melody has grown to be one the Hottest and most Beautiful multi talented artist out there. 🔥🤩
Hi Todd, I always enjoy you reaction videos. I like Bad Boyz from the first listen. Great vocals, fantastic music, great production, but yes, way too short and that is disappointing.
Liliac can't be pigeon holed into one genre or style. They had some really creative songs on Madness that never really recieved much play time. Hologram Hypothermia and Hey There Child are different than anything they have done. The music arrangement in Hologram is exceptional. Sadly the songs that don't get a video get minimal attention. I really like the seamless transitions in this. It hits you hard where it needs to. Then let's you catch your breath. Great reaction, And you are right Melody is not just a young lady anymore. Now she is an extremely serious talent, as well as the rest of the band.
Hardly new. The elements are conventional. But I like it.
Would be Southern rock like Lynyrd Skynyrd, 38 Special, and Molly Hatchet.
Agree 100%. Way too short. After the scream it was a perfect chance to throw in another guitar or piano bar like keys solo and another verse. Paul brings a lot to this Band in my opinion and hopefully is able to add on the vocals. Love the song.
I was still in school when the jam took off and they were truly one of the greatest bands ever to come out of my country ! The catalogue of the jams work is timeless
Ian Dury was just a fantastic poet
Reasons to be cheerful another great song
Ey up Todd. Hope you and yours are well. - great choice, one of my favourite songs from one of my favourite bands. The DVD/CD Vinyl info' you gave out was interesting - cheers. Saw Tull many times from 1970 to mid 80s when they became (in my mind) a bit dated and less relevant but have never lost my love of their earlier stuff. I know what you mean about Mick A, 'This Was' has a very different feel to 'Stand Up', Benefit' etc. Keep on truckin' mate.
Hi @speedtriplerider7853 - Glad to hear from you. Was thinking about you and wondering what you were up to. Yes, I love Tull as well. And the band (or should I say Ian Anderson) doesn't quit. He keeps on putting out albums and it is good stuff! Tull came to our little burg in 2002 for Lakefest and were great! Rock n Roll my friend...
calverts lyrics are beyond words, genius
Hi Todd, would like to say thanks to this song I love so much. Your reactions are very enjoyable and refreshingly open minded so I will subscribe.Great work. If you get time in the future I think you would enjoy doing Tommy Navarro I cried my life away another great song that sadly was overlooked in the states but amongst others that shaped a generation of kids in the U.K so thanks America.
There's a direct lineage from Lobby Lloyd & Billy Thorpe to AC-DC & Rose Tattoo to the Cosmic Psychos. Aussie pub rock sadly kinda faded out at this point.
This album was my introduction to Tull , and I was hooked- it was just before I went to college, and I spent a bit of my grant finding and getting their back catalogue (on Vinyl in those days) - I have bought this album many times now with all the re-releases (have one I keep in car).
Good video Todd. Can I send you one of my Mp3 tracks?
Hi @theremoteinfluencer - is this something you wrote and recorded and want me to react to?
@@drivingwithtodd1781 Hello. Please check your email when you have time. One of the tracks is a piece I had co created. The other 2 are surprise tracks. No. You don't have to review my track.
You're right Todd Jerry Lee and Johnny okeefe similar rockers my two favourite s of all time Michael 14:34
Thank you. No words! Love your response! Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️
Ian Dury was such an amazing musician and amazing band I truly love this
You might like to check your sound level. The INXS version comes off a bit loud. I'm sticking with The Loved Ones. Might have to do with me growing up in Melbourne.
Hi @BarbaraTowning - My show is recorded as one take with absolutely no edits thus no changes in recording volume. I used a "merged video" that someone created and was suggested for use by the original requestor for reaction. My guess if there is a volume issue, it would be with that merged video. When doing my reaction, I did not notice a volume increase but as I stated in my video, everything was cleaner, more intense and mixed upfront (especially the bass guitar) for the INXS version over The Loved Ones. This is basically due to better recording technics in the 1980's versus the 1960's. I would check out the original video to learn if that has the volume increase. My guess it does. Take care and keep rockin' ...
You need to listen to California man - it was the A side for good reason- it was a big hit here in the U.K.
Mushroomhead came out with 2 new songs. One is called “Fall in Line” and the other is called “Prepackaged”. Then the band As I Lay Dying has also 2 new songs. The first one is “Burden” and the other one is “The Cave We Fear to Enter.” Plus check out some of these songs out by Imminence. Some songs like “Continuum”, “Chasing Shadows”, “Alleviate”, “Heaven Shall Burn”, “The Sickness”, “Paralyzed”, “Heaven in Hiding”, and “Ghost”. These bands are amazing. By chance, you have done any of these videos or bands before then I apologize.
Van Morrison vibes is what I have always gotten from the Loved Ones version. Oh this is not the KICK version, the KICK version is way rockier, this is more similar to the original. I love all 3 versions! Btw i agree, Gary's bass is so good and so underappreciated!
The soldiers returned to Australia not as hero's but pariahs. Shameful. How were they supposed to recover from all of this?
July 19th (Friday) Liliac releases a NEW OMV...."bad Boyz"....enjoy!
As an Aussie defence force veteran- this song was pretty much our anthem when I served
That accent is full Aussie mate 😊
I LOVE Dan! But I’ve never heard of Rehn. She’s got a beautiful voice and they sounded wonderful together. Hail VascNation ❤
One of Pinder's best. RIP.
Lead vocals by Pamela Birch (tall blonde girl). She was a great singer with deep bluesy voice.
