Eric Burdon is a unique and powerful voice that you don't find much anymore.

[hookalakah]

Newcastle soul at its best. It never gets old.

[Cissy]

The lead singer Eric Burdon, was only 23 when this was recorded, he is amazing

[edithdavis]

To me this is the best version. At 73 I have heard a lot of copies, while good they just don't match up.

[ntracefan]

Eric Burdon is 81 years old and is still singing. They did this video in one take

[dagmar.]

Love Eric Burdon & The Animals. They were part of the British Invasion along with The Beatles, Rolling Stones & others. People are always shocked that Eric has such a different unique deeper voice. The Animals had a lot of great hits in the 60's such as "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place", "Baby Let Me Take You Home", "I'm Crying", "Boom Boom", "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood", "Bring It On Home to Me", "It's My Life", "Don't Bring Me Down", "See See Rider", "Monterey", "Sky Pilot" etc. Eric later joined the funk rock band "War" & they had a few hits "Spill the Wine" & "Tobacco Road".

For me, this is the best version!
From what I understand this was done in one take because it's all the money they had saved up to record it.
I completely agree his voice is haunting.
They had many huge hits.
What kills me is The Animals and all the other artists of the 60s were bashed by the older generation for having long hair!! 😆
The five Finger Death Punch cover is fantastic as well.
We've Got To Get Out Of This Place
Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood are good next steps.

I grew up with the Animals and Eric's incredible voice.

[sharipetkovsek]

Nothing beats Eric Burdon's version

[donnamoskowitz]

How fortunate I am to have grown up in the best musical era! From the 50s to the 90s in all genres!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Eric Burden had a set of pipes on him at such a young age. They had many great hits. My favorite was Sky Pilot and House of the Rising Sun. 2 very different songs, yet both had an impact on people. Sky Pilot was about the war in Vietnam and the soldiers being blessed before going to battle. If you get a chance, listen to the long version. Thank you for reacting to The Animals. I grew up with this music, and it sounds just as good now as it did back then 😊

Alan Price is killing it on that Vox Continental organ

[stevensmith]

The bloke on the organ was Alan Price who went on with Georgie Fame to sing the hit Bonnie and Clyde

[jeannieschmidt]

This OG version is just one big VIBE. Doesn't get much better.

[sherylhenley]

Eric Burdon was 23 when he did this. He sounds like a 60 yr. old man of experience doesn't he. The organ player is phenomenal and the bass player later became the manager for Jimi Hendrix. Loved your reaction!

[ladyred]

This song gives me chills every single time I hear it

[pinky]

Yes, I love The Animals! This is one of my favorites, also "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". Great reaction!

[jamesbassett]

THe song is trditional with known author and, thus is in common domain. It has been performed well by many artists.IMHO, part of why this version endures is that one can really hear the pain in Eric Burdon, pain that i have read goes backto his very rough childhood.

[hookstomper]

An all-time classic. The big bass player was Chas Chandler: he discovered Jimi Hendrix in New York (where basically nothing was happening for him), brought him to the UK, and the rest is history.

[onenight]

I'm old enough to remember when this came out. It was played on the radio all the time. Glad you enjoyed!
