Supertramp is one of the best production groups of all time. All the unique sounds all the horns all the harmony I saw them live and they absolutely blew my mind!
"THE LOGICAL SONG" - Supertramp (official video is a live performance)... you will get a better understanding of who they are, and the song will move you. P.S. it has some killer sax in it!! Great reaction as always! Peace and light...💞
The Logical Song, Take the Long Way Home, and Goodbye Stranger are all very good … as are others particularly from the Breakfast in America album, but I recommend Britt check them out in that order. I prefer the album versions over the live ones, though. Supertramp is very creative with sounds.
Love Supertramp! While not as 'popular', I think 'Even in the quietest moments' is one of their best. It has a slow build & layering of instruments that is so satisfying. Would love to see you react to it as not many others have.
I think Even in the Quietest Moments is the Supertramp album I revisit even more than the others, great as they are. Probably my favourite Supertramp album actually. I find it feels more like an album listen than a collection of singles. Plus I absolutely love the close out with Fools Overture.
The album artwork is a composite of three of their album covers...the umbrella is from the cover of Crisis, What Crisis?, the bars are from the cover of Crime Of The Century, and the hand, platter and drink is from the cover of Breakfast In America. It is insanely brilliant and imaginative artwork, and cheerful and bright, as you noted.
Supertramp is a massively underrated band and a rabbit hole worthy a deep dive into their amazing catalog. Their musicianship is outstanding, real quality writing and playing, and they were as good live as they were on their albums, which is hard to fathom. One of the very best groups of the 1970s.
The entire Breakfast in America LP was a phenomenon. Everyone will recommend the Logical Song, but I highly suggest The Long Way Home, and particularly the finale, Child of Vision…goosebumps. Once you see that LP cover art you’ll see the significance of the orange juice in the version you have today.
Great reaction, Britt, thanks! As to the album art, it is indeed a compilation album. The cover art is actually a “compilation” of what I consider to be their two best albums, Crime of the century (the bars) and Breakfast in America (the hand holding the tray). If you check out the album art on those albums you’ll see where it comes from. Cheers!
Yes, this is from 1977. The Goo Goo Dolls did a good cover of this song back in 2004, which got a lot of air play around that time and used in TV commercials.
Such an underappreciated band. Another example of why the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a complete joke with their exclusion. Lead singer Roger Hodgson has such a unique voice, never a doubt when he sings.
The fact Jethro Tull, Iron Maiden, Bad Company, The Doobie Brothers, Waren "Freaking" Zevon, Judas Priest, none of the 80 arena rock bands yet Link Wray, Nick Drake, Bobby Darin (Just to name a few) is a travesty against all man kind and Rock and Roll.

This is a Rabbit Hole you are going to absolutely love going down!! One of the best bands EVER! They fully deserve every accolade that they get and yet possibly still underrated by most people. Just phenomenal music!
Omigosh, you’ve never done any Supertramp!?! You must, must keep going down this road! The entire “Breakfast in America” album is fantastic, & that album cover is clever. Rodger Hudson is a genius, the arrangement, vocals, organ…harmonica & sax!😊
The artwork comes from their first 3 albums: The bars come from their first album "Crime of the Century", where there were hands grabbing the bars, the umbrella with a drink came from the second album "Crisis? What Crisis?" where a guy is getting a suntan under a big orange and yellow umbrella listening to a radio and having a drink while the rest of the picture is a black and white industrial wasteland, and the hand with the drink came from the third album, "Breakfast In America", where a happy waitress is holding up a little plate with a glass of orange juice and holding a menu in the other hand. You should react to their song "School". It has a long, simple, fascinating intro, and just keeps building into a unique rocking song. There's a guy in the band who throws in a lot of extra woodwinds and percussion and other weird sounds that makes Supertramp very unique. I saw them in Spokane about 1975. The band Heart was supposed to open for them, but someone in Supertramp was sick, and they had to reschedule the concert, and Heart wasn't available then. I was Heartbroken, but Supertramp put on a much longer and great show.
I had "Breakfast in America". Great album. "Crime of the Century" was, perhaps, the best engineered album of all time. Pick a tune from either one, you'll be happy.
Hard to believe I had doubts whether this seemingly simplistic radio favorite from my high school days would still hold up for me. What I didn't realize is that it's not so simplistic after all. From the sax, which I didn't remember, to the swells that you noted, and other little details and nuances, this song still does it for me!
Any song with a sax in it gets my vote. Now I never listened to Supertramp in the 70's, only what I heard on FM radio, but now I am really enjoying them. Great music! I was a Dead Head in the 70's.
That whole Breakfast in America album was all so phenomenal. Check out a huge hit from that album, Bloody Well Right. The music and the arrangement, the playing, and the singing, oh my God, it's just fantastic. But the lyrics and the idea behind the song are really amazing as well.
Both of your first two sentences are correct, in that Breakfast is a great LP and Bloody Well Right is a great tune. The only thing is BWR is off of Crime of the Century, another fantastic album! Cheers,
I just discovered you. So far, this is the best video I have seen of yours. Your personality really shone through. This song has a lot of personal meaning for me. It takes me back to better times.
Their album: The Very Best Of SUPERTRAMP is one of my favorite compilation albums!!&! I actually knew more songs on it than I had realized! If you ever saw the Kristi McNichol / Tatum O'Neil movie: Little Darlings , then you've heard SUPERTRAMP before. They do have a few live in concert videos...
Take a look at the artwork on Supertramp's album titled Breakfast in America (also the name of a hit song for them) and you'll understand this artwork a bit more. Edited to add: on reflection, it's a combo of three covers: Breakfast in America, Crime of the Century, and Crisis? What Crisis? Fitting for a greatest hits album cover.
Love this song! It brings me back to high school days when I had my hair in a big monster red headed Afro, big belled sleeves on my shirts with pressed bell bottomed slacks and high healed shoes, strutting my stuff down the hall. Those were such fun times!
Just pick any Supertramp song. But if you want to go down their greatest hits first, that's perfectly fine too. Or just go with Logical Song... Edit: that Album cover is a composite of a couple of their album's specifically "Crime of the Century" and "Breakfast in America"
The album art is artwork from their albums combined. The bars are from The Crime of the Century, The hand, saucer and glass of orange juice are from Breakfast in America and the yellow umbrella is from Even in the Quietest Moments.
The album cover is a combination of their three most iconic album covers. The Barred window is from "Crime of the Century" The Waitresses' hand holding up the orange juice is from "Breakfast in America." The umbrella is from "Crisis? What Crisis?"
First time hearing Supertramp? OMG your in for a ride. Each album has a different "feel" to them. Mellow to progressive pop. This song comes from the album "Even in the Quietest Moments" which is an amazing album along with Crime of the Century, and Breakfast in America. Highly suggest "School" from Crime of the Century. ~enjoy 🙂
There is a Huge Supertramp collection to discover… School, Logical Song, Crime of the century… great, great band. The album is a greatest hits album and is a combination of previous album covers, most specifically Breakfast in America and Crime of the Century.
Love this song 😊 the 70s was the Golden age of Rock 😊 the cover says to me that someone is offering other person happiness to a person in a cage, saying come on, come with me, be happy 😊
The art work comes from their "Crime of the Century " album and their "Breakfast in America" album. I still have both ALBUMS. Yes. Albums purchased in my youth.
Hey Brit, the album art incorporates the graphic from Supertramp's two most iconic albums, "Crime of the Century" from 1974 with the jail bars in outer space with a man's hands trying to escape, and "Breakfast in America" from 1979 with a woman waitress acting as the Statue of Liberty serving a plate of food off the coast of Manhattan, as seen from the inside of an airplane window. Supertramp was incredibly creative with their album art and their music. It's a journey of beatiful orchestration. They were, simply, BRILLIANT!
Regarding the artwork, two of their most successful albums were “Breakfast in America” and “Crime of the Century”. This artwork is a blend of the two album covers.
Enjoyed your reaction, Britt, and the song of course as well! Many people are suggesting reactions to the songs off Breakfast In America and Crime of the Century albums, and they are right as both are terrific! But this track is off Even In The Quietest Moments! I would suggest "School" should be your next Supertramp song followed by every song off Crime of the Century, followed by the songs of Crisis? What Crisis?, then Even In the Quietest Moments and then Breakfast. Each song is a treasure and I am pretty sure there are lots of live versions of their songs out there, and they were great live!
Well, Breakfast In America was a tremendous album. My two personal favorite Supertramp songs are Goodbye Stranger and Breakfast In America, the latter of which has a good live video from late 70’s showing the band off really well.
Supertramp was my first concert, with my parents. I was 11 and it was 1981. They were huge, but I was there for the opening band which was the Fixx. Anyway, I always wondered why Supertramp didn't go on to create dozens of more hits. Hmm. If you haven't checked out the Fixx you could start with, Red Sky's at Night. That being said, we were here for Supertramp, and I would recommend listening to the logical song.❤
Besides their great music, Supertramp had great album covers. Crisis What Crisis is my favorite. The greatest hits cover was a blending of at least two previous albums.
Sometimes your volume is too low to really hear the music. I always hear you well, but the music is much softer. This is one of those occasions. Not all of your listeners use headphones. 💜
If this is the only Supertramp you've heard you're missing so...... much more. Like, "The Logical Song", Breakfast in America", "Dreamer", "Take the Long Way Home", "Bloody Well Right", "Goodbye Stranger" & many more.
This song and, in part, the album cover is from the album Breakfast in America and it was an absolute beast of an album. There is nothing weak on the entire album.
This song is from the album before "Breakfast in America," titled "Even in the Quietest Moments." It wasn't nearly as much of a chart-topping juggernaut as "Breakfast in America," but it's a great album, definitely worth hearing in full, in its own right. Sometimes, I even prefer it over "BIA."
Supertramp is a deep rabbit hole. I would love to see you react to "Bloody Well Right live 1979 Paris" video. Really, anything from this concert is fire; The Logical Song, Dreamer, Goodbye Stranger, Breakfast in America.
Britt, their song "The Long Way Home" might be said to be the "flip side" of this song's messaging. The instrumentation & vocals are fantastic on that. The best version is from the Live in Paris 1979 concert. Definitely should be your next dive into Supertramp.
Regarding the cover: the bars are from the Crime of the Century album cover, and the hand holding the juice glass is from the Breakfast in America album. However, Give A Little Bit is from Even In the Quietest Moments. "Crime..." is (not surprisingly) a dark album. "Even..." and "Breakfast..." are much lighter.
For some reason I always think this is an REO Speedwagon song. Very fun feel to the song, though. Take the Long Way Home is great, too. Supertramp feels like the love child of Little Feat and Steely Dan.
Oh, yes, you must listen to The Logical song. It's powerful. The words are incredibly relevant to today. The Long Way Home is another fantastic song with some profound lines.
I just found you and I think you are as cute as a button and are very open to genres and articulate and not bash bash bash! Love you and glad I found you, even though you're a baby. Coming from old school 1972. 😇
When it comes to Supertramp, the whole Breakfast in America album is great. I personally love their Crime of the Century album. Take a journey back to their song "School ". You'll find it interesting.
Britt, check out their Crime of the Century album which is excellent! The songs tell a story and they are meant to be listened to in order. I'm thrilled that you love them. They are one of the very best and are incredible live!

Everyone has a favorite from the amazing Breakfast in America album. Mine is Goodbye Stranger. The last couple of minutes are musically so impressive.
@@pamelawertz498 ❤️❤️❤️
No, please the live version in paris
The Logical Song, Take the Long Way Home, and Goodbye Stranger are all very good … as are others particularly from the Breakfast in America album, but I recommend Britt check them out in that order. I prefer the album versions over the live ones, though. Supertramp is very creative with sounds.
Seriously…this band is phenomenal…you should listen to them…not for us…but for yourself…
Take the Long Way Home is another great song of theirs. I love your reactions ❤
One of their best i think
Love Supertramp! While not as 'popular', I think 'Even in the quietest moments' is one of their best. It has a slow build & layering of instruments that is so satisfying. Would love to see you react to it as not many others have.
I think Even in the Quietest Moments is the Supertramp album I revisit even more than the others, great as they are. Probably my favourite Supertramp album actually. I find it feels more like an album listen than a collection of singles. Plus I absolutely love the close out with Fools Overture.
Saw Robbie in Bulgaria on the beach, 30 thousand Bulgarian fans singing every word to every song. Just brilliant.

Once you see that LP cover art you’ll see the significance of the orange juice in the version you have today.
'Child Of Vision' is a great song, highly overlooked.
The Long Way Home is my favorite song by them.
A classic album indeed.
And the jail bars bear reference to the "Crime of the Century" album cover.
Agreed - I bought that album when it first came out. Take the Long Way Home is my fav.
Great reaction, Britt, thanks! As to the album art, it is indeed a compilation album. The cover art is actually a “compilation” of what I consider to be their two best albums, Crime of the century (the bars) and Breakfast in America (the hand holding the tray).

And don't forget the umbrella - from Crisis? What Crisis?
@@Pixelologist Also the white background / colored text is from "Brother where you bound"
I missed those. Not as familiar with those albums. Thanks for that!
... and the Beach umbrella from "Crisis, what crisis?"
Live in Paris 1979 is brilliant
My favourite live album. 👍🙏
I've always loved this song and "Dreamer", but of course there is also "Bloody Well Right", "The Logical Song", "The Long Way Home" and many more.
Hands down, one of my favorite Supertramp songs.
Being born 1970 I remember this man and lots of Supertramps music in the radio. Lots more to listen to. Glad you enjoyed 🙌🏼
Man . . . YOU'RE GONNA LOVE this group . . .
Yes, this is from 1977. The Goo Goo Dolls did a good cover of this song back in 2004, which got a lot of air play around that time and used in TV commercials.
I love Supertramp, their music never gets old or stale!!!👍👍👌👌✌✌😃😃
Such an underappreciated band. Another example of why the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a complete joke with their exclusion.
Lead singer Roger Hodgson has such a unique voice, never a doubt when he sings.
What Rock N' Roll hall of Fame? There is one? The thing they call now is a travesty.
Cannot believe they are not in - yet Janet Jackson is in?
The fact Jethro Tull, Iron Maiden, Bad Company, The Doobie Brothers, Waren "Freaking" Zevon, Judas Priest, none of the 80 arena rock bands yet Link Wray, Nick Drake, Bobby Darin (Just to name a few) is a travesty against all man kind and Rock and Roll.

When i was in High school "Dreamer " was one of my favorite songs.
You identify the very best of the 70's material. Love your personna and your reaction.
This is a Rabbit Hole you are going to absolutely love going down!! One of the best bands EVER! They fully deserve every accolade that they get and yet possibly still underrated by most people. Just phenomenal music!
Omigosh, you’ve never done any Supertramp!?! You must, must keep going down this road! The entire “Breakfast in America” album is fantastic, & that album cover is clever. Rodger Hudson is a genius, the arrangement, vocals, organ…harmonica & sax!😊
Now's the time that we need to share......so send a smile and show you care....don't you need to feel at home? Oooooohhhhh we gotta sing!!!
Supertramp were a phenomenal band👏👏
Their song "Even in the quietest moments" is also quite good.
loved growing up with amog others supertramp a whole host of music from them.
This is one of those songs that while riding down the road with your friends you realize everyone is singing along out loud and it just seems right.
The music was so cool and diverse! The lyrics were so profound!
I grew u an 80's teen, and my uncle that I lived with listen to 50's/60's rock so I had all sorts of music, but the 70's is my favorite.
I saw Supertramp in Vancouver in 1997 or 98 I think, they are awesome.
Love your smile and enthusiasm~~Thanks for sharing!!
The artwork comes from their first 3 albums: The bars come from their first album "Crime of the Century", where there were hands grabbing the bars, the umbrella with a drink came from the second album "Crisis?

"Crime of the Century", "Crisis? What Crisis?", and "Breakfast in America" are their third, fourth, and sixth studio albums.
We cannot hear the song very well thru your feed...
@__Miss_brittreacts_._the volume is very very low on the song.
Yeah, damn.
Yes a tad to low. I thought my speaker was clogged.
and she’s louuuuud 🎺
The song sounds great and loud enough. I hear it just fine.
A compilation album not only of songs but covers too. They really did create art a different sound
I had "Breakfast in America". Great album. "Crime of the Century" was, perhaps, the best engineered album of all time. Pick a tune from either one, you'll be happy.

Such a great band,a definite favourite of mine.
Supertramp are great.
That whole album is great!!!!
this song takes me back to my childhood
Hey Brit, the album art incorporates the graphic from Supertramp's two most iconic albums, "Crime of the Century" from 1974 with the jail bars in outer space with a man's hands trying to escape, and "Breakfast in America" from 1979 with a woman waitress acting as the Statue of Liberty serving a plate of food off the coast of Manhattan, as seen from the inside of an airplane window. Supertramp was incredibly creative with their album art and their music. It's a journey of beatiful orchestration. They were, simply, BRILLIANT!
The cover art is basically a compilation or mash-up of cover art from their two big hit album; Breakfast in America and Crime of the Century
Check out their tune "Even in the Quietest Moments".
Their most underrated album...and a great title track.
The bars are from the album cover Crime of the century and the arm holding the drink is from Breakfast in America
Regarding the artwork, two of their most successful albums were “Breakfast in America” and “Crime of the Century”. This artwork is a blend of the two album covers.
LOVE your reactions, Britt. Your mic is way louder than the music.
Enjoyed your reaction, Britt, and the song of course as well! Many people are suggesting reactions to the songs off Breakfast In America and Crime of the Century albums, and they are right as both are terrific! But this track is off Even In The Quietest Moments! I would suggest "School" should be your next Supertramp song followed by every song off Crime of the Century, followed by the songs of Crisis? What Crisis?, then Even In the Quietest Moments and then Breakfast. Each song is a treasure and I am pretty sure there are lots of live versions of their songs out there, and they were great live!
Well, Breakfast In America was a tremendous album. My two personal favorite Supertramp songs are Goodbye Stranger and Breakfast In America, the latter of which has a good live video from late 70’s showing the band off really well.
another great classic rock song, great reaction and positive message . keep it up!
Supertramp was my first concert, with my parents. I was 11 and it was 1981. They were huge, but I was there for the opening band which was the Fixx. Anyway, I always wondered why Supertramp didn't go on to create dozens of more hits. Hmm. If you haven't checked out the Fixx you could start with, Red Sky's at Night. That being said, we were here for Supertramp, and I would recommend listening to the logical song.❤
I'm so glad that I found your reaction channel ☺️... You give that same zest in Life as that song was intended to...
Besides their great music, Supertramp had great album covers. Crisis What Crisis is my favorite. The greatest hits cover was a blending of at least two previous albums.
Sometimes your volume is too low to really hear the music. I always hear you well, but the music is much softer. This is one of those occasions. Not all of your listeners use headphones. 💜
great reaction great tune.............hey britt ........WHIPPING POST
The artwork references the classic album "Breakfast in America". Get it.
Britt, the art is a combination of the cover art from two of their LPs. Crime of the Century and Breakfast in America. Love you and your vids XXOO
The cover is a mesh of the bands Album covers.
The songs audio is really low compared to your voice, but what a great song!
I agree, I'm a little (well, maybe a lot) hearing challenged, bring the songs audio volume to your voice volume.
Trust me on this MUST HEAR/SEE track,, Steam Powered Giraffe "Honeybee" (Official Music Video A MUST!!)
Now this is what i call music
When a girl split up with me in college, I played this on repeat in my self-pitying. Even without my self-pitying, this song is just amazing.
If this is the only Supertramp you've heard you're missing so...... much more. Like, "The Logical Song", Breakfast in America", "Dreamer", "Take the Long Way Home", "Bloody Well Right", "Goodbye Stranger" & many more.
This song and, in part, the album cover is from the album Breakfast in America and it was an absolute beast of an album. There is nothing weak on the entire album.
This song is from the album before "Breakfast in America," titled "Even in the Quietest Moments." It wasn't nearly as much of a chart-topping juggernaut as "Breakfast in America," but it's a great album, definitely worth hearing in full, in its own right. Sometimes, I even prefer it over "BIA."
Mid 80s laying out at the pool with Cheri and Johny smoking and just enjoying being young man I miss my teenage years and
Bought this album in 10th grade.....got a free shirt too....I'm very aged.....Peace!
Supertramp is a deep rabbit hole. I would love to see you react to "Bloody Well Right live 1979 Paris" video. Really, anything from this concert is fire; The Logical Song, Dreamer, Goodbye Stranger, Breakfast in America.
The graphics is a mix of their album covers, since as a "best of" its a mix of songs from their albums..
'Even in the Quietest Moments' which is the title song from this record, is one you'd really like. It's very moving and emotional.
I hear it. It's good.
Britt, their song "The Long Way Home" might be said to be the "flip side" of this song's messaging. The instrumentation & vocals are fantastic on that. The best version is from the Live in Paris 1979 concert. Definitely should be your next dive into Supertramp.
Even in the Quietest Moments is also good. The Goo Goo Dolls cover of Give a Little Bit is pretty good as well.
Love your reactions Brit. You rock!!
Regarding the cover: the bars are from the Crime of the Century album cover, and the hand holding the juice glass is from the Breakfast in America album. However, Give A Little Bit is from Even In the Quietest Moments. "Crime..." is (not surprisingly) a dark album. "Even..." and "Breakfast..." are much lighter.
Breakfast in America is also a great album
70'sbest Era of music in my opinion ,late 60' as well
For some reason I always think this is an REO Speedwagon song. Very fun feel to the song, though. Take the Long Way Home is great, too. Supertramp feels like the love child of Little Feat and Steely Dan.
Take the Long Way Home is in my top 3 intros of all time.
Oh, yes, you must listen to The Logical song. It's powerful. The words are incredibly relevant to today. The Long Way Home is another fantastic song with some profound lines.
Give me a little bit Britt great song keep up tne great work ❤😊
I just found you and I think you are as cute as a button and are very open to genres and articulate and not bash bash bash! Love you and glad I found you, even though you're a baby. Coming from old school 1972. 😇
When it comes to Supertramp, the whole Breakfast in America album is great. I personally love their Crime of the Century album. Take a journey back to their song "School ". You'll find it interesting.
Britt, check out their Crime of the Century album which is excellent! The songs tell a story and they are meant to be listened to in order. I'm thrilled that you love them. They are one of the very best and are incredible live!
