Most artists are horrible live (At least compared to their studio versions.) It's like they sing it really well once, by luck, and then say "That's it, put it on a CD" and from then on every time they do it it's horrible. Kansas did it the right way, it was equally well performed each time.
+anthemofadam It was a good performance, but I noticed so many differences from the album version. Either the guitarist was trying something new, or he was nervous/got off his groove. Either way, the album version sounds better to me.
+Joe Aga My husband and my son are both musicians and often change live playing to move with the audience or a mood. it is really difficult to play the same thing over and over and over...
There cannot be many bands - EVER, who can reproduce such a brilliant mirror image of vocals and music 40 years after the original - I still have the vinyl copy of the Album. Long may they continue.
I discovered Kansas in the mid-70s and saw them a dozen times over the years. They are one of the tightest, most passionate live bands you will ever see. Indoors, outdoors, small halls, stadiums, or with and orchestra, they bring it every time. Their music is so much more than their two hits. Go see them. They will still blow you away.
This song is really hard to play with all the changes but Wow Great Feeling when you finally pull it off in a bar! We did back in 77-78 & Man those days were Great just like this song!!!
Shit the bag and save the matches, I jammed the ear buds at MAX volume. I remembered a concert I never went to...twice. In November of 79 and in 80..Both my daughters born were a year apart the night of both concerts, I still have the 4 tickets
How can people dislike this song its a classic. We all grew up with this song. Your parents grew up with this song cruising the highways of America in their muscle cars. This song is as Americana as it comes!
Please Help Me! I'm addicted to this song!!!!!!!!!!!! I hear it in my head over an over! It won't stop! Sure, it's a great song, but ... please ... please let it STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would kindly say to any person who does not listen to rock music ,to stop commenting on the perfection of this song.....We knew that,it existed almost 35 years before SUPERNATURAL....I'm always begging my friends to listen to some classic rock songs and they just ignore and laugh at me...and when such a song is related to a series or a movie they like,then they manipulate this so that to show that they have an overall view about music in general..Now go and just listen to Justin Bieber..THANX
I would just like to say that, yes, we do know that music like this existed before a TV show or movie, but for lots of Supernatural fans, the show has just gotten us interested in this genre of music. Most of us actually do like the song for the song itself, not because of what it relates to. So, please don't make us feel inferior simply because we didn't come across this sort of music the same way you did, because we like it just as much and are perfectly entitled to express that. Thanks.
No wonder I'm still stuck in the 1970s/1980s. REAL MUSIC~! PLAYED BY REAL MUSICIANS~! What a lovely change from the raunchy, lyric-less trash of today.
brofranomo Dude, take Lawrence Taylor's advice and stop smokin' crack. This song is now almost 40 years old, and people of different generations still sing it when it comes on the radio. Kansas was NOT short lived, their songs are still getting regular airplay, and they still sell out concerts. Does it hurt to be that stupid and jealous?
My six year old granddaughter heard this song on the radio and said "hey, this is Dean's Song from Supernatural". her daddy said, "your damma would be so proud!".
I don't know... if they keep putting out no-talent songs like this one, they'll never make it. *SNARK* Are you shitting me?! These guys just celebrated their 40th anniversary. One of the best prog groups or otherwise to come out of the 70's!
cipher ZeroX oh my gosh. These comments are so cliche. There are so many great singers out there. And many of the very famous (not flavor of the month) singers are real musicians. Just because they add pageantry and you don't like them doesn't make them fakes.
Living, following art & music thru the late 60's, 70's,80's,90's, & yep-right up to until today, 2017-makes me: *A DINOSAUR*! So while you have your youth, I got to see all the GREATEST BANDS, & that's no cliche;}
OMG, the bass is so bottom heavy and really carries this tune quite well. Pure thunder. Kansas are bloody LEGENDS, even in England. We have really taken a shining to classic rock from the States. Boston is another great band as well. = ]
Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man Though my mind could think I still was a mad man I hear the voices when I'm dreaming I can hear them say {Refrain Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune But I hear the voices say {Refrain No! Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, nothing equals the splendor Now your life's no longer empty But surely heaven waits for you Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry (don't you cry no more)
Sounds true to the recording, just as powerful and epic. I love when a band can produce the same sound live as their studio stuff.
Most artists are horrible live (At least compared to their studio versions.) It's like they sing it really well once, by luck, and then say "That's it, put it on a CD" and from then on every time they do it it's horrible. Kansas did it the right way, it was equally well performed each time.
Alex Burgoyne you have absolutely no idea what the work in the studio looks like nowadays, do you?
The music is simular yes, although the guitar in the beginning is different than the studio version.
+anthemofadam It was a good performance, but I noticed so many differences from the album version. Either the guitarist was trying something new, or he was nervous/got off his groove. Either way, the album version sounds better to me.
+Joe Aga My husband and my son are both musicians and often change live playing to move with the audience or a mood. it is really difficult to play the same thing over and over and over...
And if I claim to be a wise man,
it surely means that I don't know.
We should all remember that.

+DancesWithBears I totally agree. This song is beyond sublime.
It has a favorite of mine for many years! Pleased you like it! Thank you for the comment!
no shit Sherlock, dont know why this has 51 likes, you literally said what we already know
Apparently, you do not grasp the meaning of the song so I am guessing you are quite young or just lame! :)
so much respect for this song. MASTERPIECE.
There cannot be many bands - EVER, who can reproduce such a brilliant mirror image of vocals and music 40 years after the original - I still have the vinyl copy of the Album. Long may they continue.
It's my ringtone...love this tune. .thank God Supernatural is bringing back some really epic classic tunes..@live and love supernatural
now this is music no fake ass auto tune nothing pure music
What a beautiful piece of art, magnificent song. What a pleasure to have lived in that time and enjoy all those wonderful music.
my boy 12yr.s came back from church camp singing this song, and when I joined in he was floored
Steve and Robby still had it and sounded better then ever
Don't you cry no more...

I love that 'Supernatural' has brought so many new fans to know this great song! (And many others!)
This song is really hard to play with all the changes but Wow Great Feeling when you finally pull it off in a bar! We did back in 77-78 & Man those days were Great just like this song!!!
Shit the bag and save the matches, I jammed the ear buds at MAX volume. I remembered a concert I never went to...twice. In November of 79 and in 80..Both my daughters born were a year apart the night of both concerts, I still have the 4 tickets
These guys took rock to a whole new level in the late 70s.
one minute I'm watching supernatural, the next I'm obsessed with kansas
THESE GUYS ARE MONSTERS, OMG! I bow to them!
Saw them about 2 weeks ago..still Badass!!! Carry On!!
saw kansas live in shepherds bush in london 5 years ago.. the best band ever.....
How can people dislike this song its a classic. We all grew up with this song. Your parents grew up with this song cruising the highways of America in their muscle cars. This song is as Americana as it comes!
Please Help Me! I'm addicted to this song!!!!!!!!!!!! I hear it in my head over an over! It won't stop! Sure, it's a great song, but ... please ... please let it STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry i'm addicted too and i can't find the cure...
Mirna Rodriguez The only prescription is more cowbell!
gun to the temple?
ApexApocalypse you are horrible
KME Rochester
I try -.-
Oh gosh, how much did I love them in college? Sweet memories! ❤️
Real talent,great music : excellent band !
True musicianship, great tune!
awesome song awesome band and the best awesome series ever....Jensen and Jared are even more awesome....love it all......
I would say 40% of the awesomness of Supernatural is because songs like this....and 50% Jensen Ackles.
but that is just 90%, where is the other 10%?
BigFoot912Productions
the rest is story, other characters....
TheDissmaster10 Id actually say its 40% the music and 50% Jensen and Jared..
Geez, where's the love for Jared and his mane?
Bigfoot and Jack Frost the other ten is from them being badass monster hunters.
damn these guys just sound better than they did 30 years ago
I would kindly say to any person who does not listen to rock music ,to stop commenting on the perfection of this song.....We knew that,it existed almost 35 years before SUPERNATURAL....I'm always begging my friends to listen to some classic rock songs and they just ignore and laugh at me...and when such a song is related to a series or a movie they like,then they manipulate this so that to show that they have an overall view about music in general..Now go and just listen to Justin Bieber..THANX
So much damn talent. Saw them in 1991. Fantastic!
Me and my friend just seen Kansas here in Milwaukee, WI on 10/25/12 and they gave one heck of a performance from start to finish.
Its For You Son
--Kansas---Carrry On Your Way My Wayward Son----
Best version that hasn't been struck down by copy right.
I would just like to say that, yes, we do know that music like this existed before a TV show or movie, but for lots of Supernatural fans, the show has just gotten us interested in this genre of music. Most of us actually do like the song for the song itself, not because of what it relates to. So, please don't make us feel inferior simply because we didn't come across this sort of music the same way you did, because we like it just as much and are perfectly entitled to express that. Thanks.
My Parent's used to like these music at their childhood, and know I have shame about kind of music my sons will enjoy on their generation..
Their music just never fades away.
This is by far the most Badass looking band in the world
They sound even better live love Kansas !
Omg I watched this 1000 times in a row. They rocked this shit
Awesome I agree with you Dances If we all remembered that phrase the world would be a better place.
The epicness flows through this one
These guys are geniuses. We'll listen to Kansas AND Black Sabbath..thanks
No wonder I'm still stuck in the 1970s/1980s. REAL MUSIC~! PLAYED BY REAL MUSICIANS~! What a lovely change from the raunchy, lyric-less trash of today.
I am thinking now. Thank you, Kansas.
Hands down!! These guys are classic
Don't you cry no more. Love it.
They guy with the Eyepatch is so bad-ass
You must be from Kansas because they weren't that good. Short lived..
brofranomo they'll be remembered long after your gone!
Maybe by a few, very few at that..
brofranomo Dude, take Lawrence Taylor's advice and stop smokin' crack. This song is now almost 40 years old, and people of different generations still sing it when it comes on the radio.

m2karateman You're without a doubt, the biggest idiot on youtube comments sect....Take your own advice and take it to heart....loser fuckwad
I love this song! Have tons of Kansas' albums. And props to Supernatural for introducing great 80's and 70's music, including this song, to new fans!
probably because... it's old and we of the 21st century don't hear this on the radio much any more (pity though, I like this song).
that's the coolest rock song ever plain and simple people
I was listening this song before Supernatural, and it made this song even better with each season finale of Supernatural.
A timeless CLASSIC!
Can I see this one song live , repeatedly ? These men can jam ! Classic forever !
One of the greatest bands of all time. Carry on, Kansas, carry on.
This is one of the greatest live performances I've seen.
My six year old granddaughter heard this song on the radio and said "hey, this is Dean's Song from Supernatural". her daddy said, "your damma would be so proud!".
every time i hear this song all i think of is supernatural
Music was great in the 80's, but nothing beats the 70's
that guitar player looks so badass with the eyepatch and everything !
One the best all time songs, bands, individual musicians that has expressed such truth along this journey called 'life'...... Thank you
Kansas was the first live concert I ever saw, shows ya how old I am, haha!
this group is cool I love this song I wish this group success
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?? THIS IS KANSAS
I don't know... if they keep putting out no-talent songs like this one, they'll never make it. *SNARK* Are you shitting me?! These guys just celebrated their 40th anniversary. One of the best prog groups or otherwise to come out of the 70's!
wtf are you talking they've been around forever
amazing...when I was young and grow up with this fantastic mucic! Never let go!
They still hit those high notes perfectly
Kansas is the best!!!!!!!
Here is a real comment....excellent song from one the best bands during the 70's!
Listen up kiddies, they don't make music like this anymore!
Remember when musicians didn't need to lip sync & could actually play real instruments in real time?
Pop artist* not musicians
+cipher “cipher0x” ZeroX Yeah that shit was crazy
cipher ZeroX oh my gosh. These comments are so cliche. There are so many great singers out there. And many of the very famous (not flavor of the month) singers are real musicians. Just because they add pageantry and you don't like them doesn't make them fakes.
Living, following art & music thru the late 60's, 70's,80's,90's, & yep-right up to until today, 2017-makes me:
*A DINOSAUR*! So while you have your youth, I got to see all the GREATEST BANDS, & that's no cliche;}
This was back in 2019, Still sound tight, time flies my friend!
2019? Lol
+SpiffyChris 123 how high was he when he posted that comment xD
Legen Diver hello from 2021
Makes me remember my sons , especially the one who was killed in wreck last feb!!!
+Phyllis Bennett sorry to hear that may your son rest in peace

PRS... the most beautifull guitar !!!
Favorite song of all time!

Great song with Kansas, the Lead Guitarrist is awesome!!!
This song blow my mind!!!!!
Rock on,one of the best !
OMG, the bass is so bottom heavy and really carries this tune quite well.
Pure thunder. Kansas are bloody LEGENDS, even in England. We have really
taken a shining to classic rock from the States. Boston is another great band as well.
= ]
I saw them live last October and they still sound great! They are the epitome of progressive rock.
best lullaby song ever¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
He is strangling that SG!!!!!! Rock Rules
that's not an SG, it's a PRS McCarty.
+orion681 Well spotted, thanks. He's strangling that too :)
Love the drums in that song.
Almost 40 years ago 1976--still a great tune
Never too old to rock !
Couldn't agree more with your comment and I'm 60 and still rock but classic rock
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say
{Refrain
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say
{Refrain
No!
Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
But surely heaven waits for you
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry (don't you cry no more)
On terms of pure musicianship - this has got to be the greatest band of all time
I love this song, and rock and roll! YEAH!!!
Скрипач за 40 лет почти не изменился! Хорошо сохранился!
I'll listen to both, thank you.
