<\/div>\n

Bob Seger<\/a> was one of the last major artists to put his music on streaming platforms, so it\u2019s no huge surprise that he\u2019s also one of the last to start an official YouTube channel. It premiered Friday with a lyric video for his 1976 classic \u201cNight Moves.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe video is the first of a series of lyric videos Capitol is producing to highlight Seger\u2019s classic hits,\u201d reads a press release. \u201cThe Bob Seger Official Artist Channel will also premiere rare and classic Seger music videos restored for the first time in HD, and feature custom playlists of Seger\u2019s catalog in HD quality audio, fan-generated videos, as well as rare and unreleased content.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seger already made a \u201cNight Moves\u201d video back in 1994 that featured Matt LeBlanc shortly before he became a superstar thanks to Friends<\/em>. The video also showed 1994-era Seger lip-syncing to his original 1976 recording in which he recounted teenage events from 1962.<\/p>\n

The \u201cNight Moves\u201d hall of mirrors is now even more surreal with this 2020 lyric video showing the lyrics and graphics related to the song. (Lyric videos are usually reserved for new songs prior to the release of a proper video, but they seem to be going this route since many of Seger\u2019s most famous songs were created prior to the music video age.)<\/p>\n

The music video was never Seger\u2019s art form of choice, but he did create ones for \u201cLike a Rock,\u201d \u201cThe Fire Inside,\u201d \u201cChanges Are,\u201d \u201cTurn the Page\u201d and \u201cWait for Me\u201d that will presumably appear at some point on this new YouTube channel.<\/p>\n

The fate of his early albums still remains a complete mystery. In a move that has baffled and frustrated fans for years, he has kept them out of print for decades and they are extremely hard to find through any legal means. \u201cJack White is always asking me about that,\u201d he told Rolling Stone<\/em> in 2018.<\/a> \u201cHe wants to remix them all, and said he\u2019d do it for free. But I\u2019m always on to the next thing \u2014 the next album, the next tour. Maybe when I retire I\u2019ll get serious about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seger wrapped up his Roll Me Away: The Final Tour<\/em> at Philadelphia\u2019s Wells Fargo Center on November 1st, 2019. He left the window open very slightly to perform more shows overseas since it was merely billed as his \u201cFinal North American Tour.\u201d But outside of brief visits in 1977 and 1980, he\u2019s never played outside of America and there\u2019s no indication any such tour is in the works.<\/p>\n

That gives him plenty of time now to get those early albums back out. In the meantime, however, enjoy the new \u201cNight Moves\u201d lyric video.<\/p>\n
