Hello and welcome back to my channel. My

name is Stacy, and I'm so happy to see

you here today. If you are new to the

channel, first of all, welcome. And

second of all, if you're wondering what

we are doing in my corner of the

internet, I am on a journey of listening

to songs, bands, and artists I've never

heard before. And today, you guys, we

are diving into a new artist for me

named Kim Carnes, and we're listening to

a song called Betty Davis Eyes. I've

never heard of Kim Carnes before, so I

have no idea what her music is all

about. So, I'm excited to dive into a

new artist today and just check out her

sound. And yeah, I'm excited to see what

she's all about. So, before I begin the

reaction, you guys, if you like my

content and want to join me on my

musical journey of discovery, please be

sure to like and share the video, as

well as subscribe to the channel, as it

really helps growing content creators

like me. So, without further ado, let's

get into the reaction. All right, you

guys, this is Kim Carnes' Betty Davis

Eyes. Let's get started.

Ooh, baby.

80s magic. [music]

Hello.

Her lips, sweet surprise.

Her hands are never [music and singing]

cold.

She's got Betty Davis eyes. She'll turn

a music on you.

Mhm. You won't have to think [music]

twice.

Mhm.

She's pure as New York snow.

She's got Betty Davis eyes. [music]

Ooh, baby.

And she'll tease you.

She'll un-ease you. [music]

All the better to

touch and please you.

She's precocious.

Mhm. And she knows just what it takes

[music] to make a pro blush. Woah.

Glad

>> [music]

>> to grab her.

Stand up fast, she's got

>> [music]

>> Woah.

What the heck?

>> [laughter]

>> I am falling over from the slapping.

Okay, we have to rewatch that. Oh my

god.

That was hilarious.

I was not expecting that. Oh my gosh.

Oh, I was about to lose my train of

thought.

>> [laughter]

>> Okay, anyway. Kim Carnes, holy crap. I

love how her voice is a mixture of raspy

but also soft and whispery and angelic

in a way. It's so

cool to hear. It's cool how she is able

to change up the tone of her voice

throughout the song. That might be what

she's known for. I'm not entirely sure

this is my first impression of Kim

Carnes, but wow, she has a stunning

voice and she's also stunning herself in

this video. But I just love the

instrumentation and how it just sounds

like an '80s fantasy world. I just find

myself getting lost in this sort of

instrumentation with the synth and

I don't know. It just takes me to

another world. It just gives me like

dark fantasy vibes. And that just could

be something I have seen on TikTok, but

otherwise I just love this sort of vibe.

It just makes me nostalgic for some

reason even though I didn't even live in

the '80s, it makes me nostalgic. All

righty, so let's continue.

I'm excited for the slap.

What the heck time?

Why is that so funny?

>> [music]

>> Cracks me up.

Yes.

>> [music]

>> Blue.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Ooh.

>> [music]

>> Ferocious.

>> [music]

[music]

>> I love that guitar in the back. [music]

Makes it funky.

>> [music]

>> Ferocious.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Who's from prom?

I love that.

Just to please [music] you.

>> [music]

>> When she

you.

When she snows you.

>> She snows you.

>> What does that mean to snow somebody?

Huh? Okay, well, immediately I really

like Kim Carnes. I really like her

style, her voice. It's very distinct and

I feel like to have a combination of

that soft flirty kind of whispery vocals

with her raspy vocals is very different

and unlike anything I've heard from any

other woman singer before. So, this was

lovely to hear. I love the combination

here. I also just love how her voice

fluctuates with certain words, you know,

she'll say she'll expose you. She like I

don't know, it just sounds a little

flirty to me and I really like the

different flavors she would add to

certain words, you know, the ferocious

so many different examples of that in

this song. It's very playful and very

very fun. I feel like mastering that

vocal rasp is so hard and Kim just does

it so well. It seems to come natural to

her and I feel like again that's just so

hard to do and not only that, but to

make it sound this good, it's such a

treat to listen to. I feel like raspy

vocals aren't too much of a thing

anymore for uh women vocalists and

singers. So, it's again so unique and so

refreshing to hear every now and then.

Love the 80s instrumentation. I

especially love that that whip sound

that they had going on with the slapping

in the video.

That cracked me up. I was not expecting

that. But, it was it was funny and uh

put a smile on my face. But, yeah. That

uh brought a new beat and flavor to the

song that I wasn't expecting. But, this

song just as a whole is so nostalgic to

to just because

there's something about 80s music that

is so magical and it might be because of

the synth or something, the drums, um

maybe even the visuals of a music video

that just make it so comforting, but

the magic of the 80s is definitely

undeniable. I mean,

I've never even lived through the 80s

and

I feel nostalgic for that time. I feel

nostalgic for a lot of different things,

but there's just something very magical

and special about it. It just kind of

transports you.

And

yeah, there's something intangible about

it. It's really hard to place my finger

on or to really even describe, but there

definitely is such a thing as 80s magic

and I hear it time and time again as I

dive through these iconic 80s songs and

the 80s catalog.

There was a specific sound from the 80s

that I truly love, whether it was the

reverb drums, the synth, the saxophones.

I don't know. I just really love that

time. Overall, I really enjoyed this. I

love, again, the 80s instrumentation

combined with Kim's raspy

lovely voice. Oh my gosh, it's so cool

to just be able to hear her go from

raspy to like a wispy. I don't know. I

really liked it and also just to hear a

raspy playful voice is also different

for me as well. So, this was such a

treat. I really enjoyed Kim and I

definitely want to explore her catalog

more. I feel like this kind of voice and

this kind of vocalist is definitely lost

on music today, at least mainstream

music. So, I I want to hear more of it.

It It's just music to my ears,

literally. So, I think that will do for

today's reaction. Thank you all again so
