First girl said, about the 60s, probably meant earlier too, that they had such depth, such passion in the voice compared to autotuned today - interesting coming from her. She's not anglo, is responsive, passionate, really lives it. Entertaining gal.
Fourth girl ... sadly, there's something wrong with her, a real product of today, what's been done to kids, just lacks ... something ... can't identify it. She likes 60s but the schlock fashion part.
Third man, the black guy - reacted as I thought he might. Blacks got soul, man, they're going to see it in an instant. Respect, mun.
Second lady nice reaction - ran it earlier as a video, changing it now for another black reaction.
The song - it's where I'd argue the point with our classical and jazz chaps.
There's a time for purity of note, of sound, but there's also a time for rough edged and I'd hold that it stands up, musically, in the hands of a real band, just as well as any ensemble. Eric Burdon and Alan Price were something else again:
Also this:
The Animals dramatic version of this was probably one of the first well-known real folk-rock releases. The song being very old and having multiple versions from now mostly forgotten US singers but even Dylan covered it in a very traditional way. Personally, as a folk rock enthusiast growing up in the psychedelic era, although not a particular fan of the band I rather like this arrangement which was even more folk-rock in my opinion. https://youtu.be/t40INnb6DnY
