I love how halfway through Lex is like "its so heartwarming" when the songs about a guy saying goodbye to all his one-night stands lol. Anyways the production and arrangement on this song is great.
I always thought it was about saying goodbye to his cannabis usage but okay haha.
@@Layjus123 no, that’s Tom Petty’s Last Dance With Mary Jane. 😉
@@Layjus123 I think they probably intentionally wrote in the double meaning there. The lyrics make sense either way. But regardless of which way you go with it, I still think its funny describing the song as heartwarming lol
@@Layjus123 i always thought it was about touring and the one night stands but now comment is making me see this differently. Goodbye mary, goodbye jane..... hmm 😂
Guess it's up to interpretation of each person.....I personally thought it was about left handed cigarettes as well 🕊️
Does this man ever show emotion?. You go girl
Breakfast in America had 4 hit songs on it. The album went quadruple platinum and was the top album in the US pop charts for 6 weeks.
It made it to Sweden too!
Had their highest sales in Canada. We love em here! :)
@@protovision2010 I was at the outdoor Concert in Toronto, when Roger announced he was leaving the band. I think that was their Famous Last Words Tour??? It was awesome.
Videos killed supertramp
The outro of that song is AAAAAAAAAAAMAZING!!!
Lex is literally the epitome of a "good time". She's always grooving, I'm so jealous I wish I could be as happy as her!
And stunningly beautiful aswell
Guys, its about one night stands. Nothing more, nothing less. Feel no sorrow, feel no shame. It's the life I've chosen, everyday. He wakes up in a new town and has to say goodbye to women all over again wondering if they will ever meet again.
Some of they do, some of they don't, and some you just can't tell... it's definitely about women he came to know on his endless journey.
Brad & Lex, you will LOVE their "Dreamer" and "Give A Little Bit"!!! Most of their songs contain a great solo!
LOL, the song is about a member of a rock band leaving behind a trail of groupies in his wake.
Yes. I'll up-vote both those songs for a reaction.
Give a Little Bit was one of my self-pitying after a breakup songs.
Right .. you're bloody well right
Just Another Nervous Wreck and It's Raining Again are great too
Supertramp is an intelligent band that incorporated a lot of traditional rock, pop rock, and art rock into their music. I always just labeled them as an art rock band along with another intelligent band called 10cc. It is well worth exploring their deeper cuts (both Supertramp & 10cc).
When I was 13 years old here in Toronto, I went to the fair (CNE) and in one of those sideshow games where you win small, usually worthless prizes, I won my very first prize ever, a Supertramp Breakfast In America record lol. I had no idea who these guys were and pondered throwing it out somewhere so I can enjoy the rest of the evening at the fair but, thankfully, I held on to that thing for the rest of the night and the very next day when I finally put it on my parents ancient, cheesy, disco ball turntable, I was mesmerized at the beautiful sounds coming out of that thing. I think I listened to that record so many times, it turned white. One of the all time best rock albums, I'd rate it up there with Pink Floyd's Dark Side, Fleetwood Mac's Rumours etc.. fantastic band.
Lmaoooo!! That’s a great story!! :) I love it! Perhaps we’ve crossed paths at the CNE! 🤣 I saw supertramp in 83’ at the CNE!! Was so sad when they tore it down.. saw so many amazing shows there! Big props to you for shleping thru your day and hanging on to Breakfast in America!! 🤘🏼
Yooo.. I just realized something.. 🤔 I’m 53 now.. born in Toronto in ‘69.. I went to the Exhibition stadium to see Supertramp in ‘83… so I was like.. how old?!! OMGGG i was 13 too!!!! Hahahaa! Small world.. 😜
Ya ya ya.. I was trying to figure it out🤣 I was indeed 13 cause my birthday comes about 3 weeks after the CNE closes every year.. I was about to turn 14! :)
Timeless, top 10 album in all rock history if you ask me. I'll never get tired to listen to it, actually the more I listen the more I enjoy.
LOVED that story
@@Music-Is-Real-Love Thanks Lisa ☺
I appreciate your point of view. I can definitely relate.
I love how they added the whistling in this song. It really conveys the care free attitude the singer is talking about.
For some really great whistling in a song, try Jungle Love by The Steve Miller Band.
Right, it perfectly conveys his cavalier ways. It's essentially about a guy who loves women in general too much to stick with any one of them. I mean, what other takeaway can you have with lines like, "Just the thought of those sweet ladies sends a shiver though my veins?" ;)
Singer's
Yeah! Supertramp is so good!
Great albums and many amazing songs
I think I could watch Lex react to anything...simply adorable....so genuine
Whistling, falsetto, a major hook.. 😻Land O'Goshen, it's Supertramp!
I haven't heard this in years, but holy fuck, I love this song.
Yes structurely today everything is the same. Because '70s, '80s, '90s music is creative as heck that is why it is as popular as back then.
A very strong track elevated to classic status by the instrumental finale.
The song just wouldn't be the same without it for sure. Because they were from prog rock, they were one of the few bands who would end a composition on a solo. As in other cases where they did it, I really works well.
@@s.mcpherson6354 Well said. I always hated the radio edit that clipped off the ending guitar solo.
Hodgesons solo at the end is voted as one of the all time top 100 solos btw.
You just want it not to finish.......
The ending is a total eargasm!
Remembering driving home from an all-night high school graduation party back in June 1980 in Los Angeles, the song came on the radio along with the sunrise, I would never forget it. We went to Denny's and had breakfast, just like the title of the album..."Breakfast in America."
Even in the quietest moments, Lord is it mine, Casual conversations, Fools overture. When it comes to Supertramp there are so many great songs to listen to.
Absolutely need to check out “Even In The Quietest Moment”, my favorite.
Also “School”, “Take The Long Way Home” and “Crime of the Century”
Oh, and one of their lesser played songs, “Cannonball”
oh you are picking some deep cuts and some great one!
Can't let this list go any further before someone has to mention Rudy. Guess it's me
I find it hard to understand how anyone likes Casual Conversations. I always found it much less enjoyable than any other song on the album. Skipped every chance I had.
Don't forget Hide in your shell and Lord is it mine
I always did love this song. Supertramp really has some excellent music that I think gets overlooked
They never play Supertramp on the radio but will play Hotel California 100 times a day.
This song is about a guy who loves 'em and then leaves 'em.
To me, this song is what he’s telling the different ladies that he meets going from town to town.
Basically “Hey, it’s been fun. Hope your life works out, but I’m on to the next town, next adventure, next woman.”
I was in 8th grade when "Breakfast in America" was released. My English teacher brought in song lyrics for songs as a way to help teach poetry to kids in a way that was relatable. At the time, all the kids thought here we go again, an adult trying to be cool. BUT, one day see came in with lyrics from this album. He told us his 17 year-old son recently purchased the album and after hearing the lyrics, he and his son had a deep conversation about many topics that concern parents and children, like drug use, heartache, etc. So he brought the lyrics into class. I remember discussing Child of Vision in particular, as a class exercise interpreting the meaning behind the lyrics. Just like you guys are doing in this reaction. I bought the album the next day. Yes, my 8th grade English teacher introduced me to Supertramp, and, consequently, Mary Jane too.
This song is just about a guy hooking up and saying goodbye in the morning. I always love how the organ kicks in so dramatically.
The guitar solo at the end is my favorite part of this song.
You have to check out bloody well right by Supertramp if you haven't already. One of their best!
Right.
School/Bloody Well Right. Those two songs best heard together
@@larryh.5229 Quite right.
Yes. That's still my favorite, even though I've heard it a million times.
My Favorite!
Still one of the smoothest guitar solos in history. Not a note wasted or out of place. It flowed like a fast moving river.
Supertramp did some seriously good music. Breakfast in America is one of several great albums. Tasty little tune about one night stands, this. Cheers....
Lex had it right again! I used to focus on the Maryjane connection but actually it's about their experiences as a famous rock band. As Lex had it, getting close or even lovers with strangers from various places, then leaving knowing you would most likely never see them again. I'm quite amazed how fast Lex gets it.
Every song on this album "Breakfast in America" is a winner with me! Their all feel good songs
The girl was dropped on the planet to teach us. Amazing girl. Yup..
One of my all-time favorite bands. My friends always look at me strange when this pops up right after Slayer on my Playlist. 😂😂😂
The band is on the road touring, great to meet you, but we have to keep moving on, will we ever meet again, we don't know, hope your life goes well !! Thanks very much for sharing your reaction with us Brad & Lex. Hope you and your dear families have a wonderful week!!
Wife here..Literally heard this song all my life.."Have to have things my own way to keep me in my youth"..I'm happily married..47..Wondering where the time has gone..Getting to make a big life change..Hoping all will be all right.."I guess I wonder if it will be the "PARADISE".I'm imagining...Goodbye for me...Love Your insights!!..Thank you for reviewing Supertramp!!
My favorite song of all time. Glad you liked it 🥰
They were a great group. They usually had upbeat songs. Check out more of their songs.
Kind of a pop prog rock group. Like Queen, ELO, and Alan Parson's Project.
Upbeat music with some dark lyrics...haha
@@FreeMTrider "Its raining again" is such a good song.
Superb British band with an incredible back catalogue
Checkout “ gone Hollywood “
“ The lover boy “
“ even in the quietest moments”
“ Rudy”
“ Downstream”
Don't forget School!
The musicianship and production on ANYTHING Supertramp recorded was superb!
When compact music discs were new there was a distributor of original studio masters who knew that music CDs could preserve the finest of studio recordings. One of the few albums that Mobile Fidelity put onto gold-plated CD master recordings was Supertramp's 'Crime of the Century' album. This bit of recording history ought to tell you how good Supertramp is.
As I've stated a hundred times before,
I'm a veteran of now, 1033 concerts (# goes up almost weekly) seeing just about every band you can think of in all musical genres since 1973.
Still till this day, "Supertramp Breakfast in America" tour during 1979 is still in my top 3 concerts of all time.
Simply a perfect performing "live" band if there ever was.
I've been listening to Supertramp since 1980 and every song on every album is GREAT!!
Oh, yes! One of my top, favorite bands and songs of the 70's!!
To me the lyrics sound like he has just had a one night stand with two ladies and is leaving in the morning.
One of the best songs I have ever heard from beginning to end. And that guitar at the end is so good. I never want it to stop.
Goodbye Stranger's such a sweet, tuneful song for most of it, and slowly morphs into sort of an Indian raga psychedelic rockin' jam, at the end eh? Supertramp are a deep well. "Bloody Well Right" "Dreamer" "Give a Little Bit" "Breakfast In America" "Oh Darling" "Child of Vision" "It's Raining Again" "The Logical Song" "Take the Long Way Home"
My fave Supertramp song for the outro alone! Definitely cruise with the windows down to this one! 💗 Brad, I think there are 2 Supertramp songs you might like:
1) Take the Long Way Home (a MUST for both of you) - it really has a dual meaning, and it has harmonica that I think Lex would love!
2) The Logical Song - it has lyrics to create introspection and has depth, and I know Brad's all about breaking down those lyrics! 😁
Yeah this album is amazing, there's a reason it went on to sell around 20 million copies world wide.
This song will forever be entwined in my adolescent years, specifically the summer of ‘79, with bittersweet memories of a (really cute) guy I met one day during summer break then never saw again until about 30 years later and he was, and is, happily married to a girl I went to school with. This song was released that same summer and any time I have heard it since then it sends me reeling back to that summer and those “lovesick” feelings ❤💔❤️💔
Amazing album, brings you right back to where you were when you first heard it.
I lived with this song a really long time before reading the song's meaning according to the writer, Rick Davies. It's from the point of view of a man who has flings with women but doesn't want anything long term, no matter the opinion of the woman. When he moves on he wishes them well but refuses to feel bad about not staying.
I agree that's the most logical meaning, but the comments about quitting weed made me look for an explanation from Davies. I couldn't find anything directly from him. Do you remember where you read that? I would love to hear his version of the song.
The fact that he specifically uses the names Mary and Jane, does make me think of references to pot. But it is just as logical to think it's just him saying goodbye to 2 different women he had a one-night stand with. The names are irrelevant and were commonly used to fill in any generic female, i.e. Jane Doe. That's why the "fling" scenario really makes the most sense. I'd just love to hear Davies' personal comment on it.
It's about groupies specifically.
Roger's guitar work on this song is outstanding.
One of my favorite classic rock songs. The truth serum on kill Bill was called the undisputed truth in the last act and I seen the guitarist in concert
Has to be the most well put together song about a one stand of all time
🤣😂 I think I just saw Brad’s mind explode 🤯. That guitar solo at the end was awesome.
Supertramp is just fantastic to listen to... great nice afternoon out by the pool or driving with the top down music.
This is a super special song for me, this is the same sweet and free-shame attitude that I love to have with girls, if we spent a beautiful time together but the feelings are passed away don't feel ashamed, see you tomorrow or whenever, friends like strangers that I knew before, have a good life and we'll meet again, maybe today! Jane. Mary for me are just girls name, this is what I feel for this incredible song! Thanks for sharing this reaction guys!
Yes, Mary Jane was used back in the 70's as slang for Pot. The song is about hooking up with groupies for one night stands before he moves on to the next concert. Or maybe also about pot. could be both, but definitely the groupies.
Supertramp often uses contrasts in the way that their lyrics and music fit together. The album, Breakfast in America, which this song is from, is loaded with them. To me this song has a light hearted feel and speaks about a guy enjoying the rock star lifestyle. The guitar solo at the end has an emotional feel to me and provides the counterpoint.
This is my favorite Supertramp song! I was so stoked to see this reaction pop up!!
I was 15 when this came out, 1979, and I bought the album. Great memories! I didn't know for many years that this song is about "One night stands"!
Supertramp are great! I have a few albums of theirs. They never disappoint. Even in the quietest moments is my favourite album. It`s also a fantastic song.
Love Supertramp , this is about him going to different places and meeting strangers, spending night or whatever and then telling them he has to move on and be free. he cant be tied down and wondering if ever meet them again
Definitely in the top ten albums of the 70s. MaryJane was a term for weed going back to the sixties.
It goes back a lot further than that. More like the 1920s or 1930s
@@bent-one2545 Reefer Madness
That's progressive rock, added to the fact that the Supertramp sound is very harmonic, rich in wind instruments.... Supertramp is a supergroup
"I'll never look behind me....my troubles will be few"...great wisdom....or as Danny Gokey says " Yesterday's a closing door...you don't live there anymore". Love this song, love Supertramp 💗🕊️
I heard this song a million times but for some reason never analyzed the lyrics until now. My impression is it about a life of one night stands and having no remorse (a common 70s rock theme) but doing research I discovered tons of debate between one night stands vs. marijuana factions. My impression is Mary and Jane are used as generic names for women, not a reference to weed.
I agree. I've tried to make the lyrics fit the quitting weed narrative, but it always seems a huge stretch. To the contrary, the tone, lyrics, and general feel make it seem more like somebody enjoying the party lifestyle of the time that you mentioned being a common theme. It just makes me feel reminiscent.
For decades I thought this song was about one night stands with groupies while on tour with the band.
Mary and Jane were generic female names in the readers we learned from in Elementary school. Years ago.
Durp. Nope. It’s about stoppin smoking weed.
Hate to be the logical one here, but Mary and Jane are reference to marijuana. Lol
One of my favorite bands since, forever.
Lex - "I feel our musical tastes are so different!" Right? But that's what makes this channel so fun!!
The most delicious combination of music instrument creating an irresistible groove. Love it!
Keep going with Supertramp.
CANNONBALL,
DREAMER,
HIDE IN YOUR SHELL,
& IT'S RAINING AGAIN.
They always bring the best musical temperament to each song. Nothing like exploring territory with artists that care.
I was just playing this cd in my car 12 hours ago. So good!
liar
I love this band!! Thank you for reacting to this fantastic song.
One of the best outros in the history of music! This and Journey's "Be Good to Yourself" always pop in my head when I think of perfect outros. I savor every note!
the amazing theme is no guitars or heavy synth (it's there but not dominant), the pianos , the keyboard work is what pulls the song together. i still remember them as the only rock 'POP' group to use 2 grand pianos but now you understand why they're so good
More Supertramp! Love Supertramp music! He was talking about all the one night stands he had in the different cities and it's not about being stoned.
It’s funny how you question the genre of Supertramp! They’re DEF a rock band! Saw them live back in the 80’s! I was DEF a rocker chick! 🤘🏼
Man, I still have this CD from back in the day, although I never bought the album when it came out, but this was like a jump over "In The Quietest of Moments" album that I had on tape. The whole album is outstanding. Side note: Back in the day when Jon Anderson left YES, the lead singer of Supertramp was approached, and he said no. (Like the story of AC/DC approaching the singer of Krokus after Bon Scott died, and he said no)
The whole song is great but the jam at the end is absolutely insane!!!! One of my favorites of all time!!!!
It kills me when the radio cuts that part off.
Supertramp was such a talented and unique band with so many good songs.
This album is one of those rarities that is as close to perfect as you can get. Pink Floyd’s “The Wall,” Yes’ “90125,” Meat Loaf’s “Bat Out Of Hell,” Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumours,” Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” to name a few.
Boston.
Supertramp was one of, if not, the first band to have a financial backer. A band that was put together by a millionaire that knew talent... Kinda like NSYNC.
Love this band... So underrated.
This song is the musical equivalent of a spring day when you roll the windows down in your car and just crank tunes in the warm sunshine.
Supertramp hangs with the very best. There is a concert out there with a full orchestra!
Watching people reacting to Supertramp always puts a smile on my face. I've been a fan of theirs since the seventies. Fool's Overture and Crime of the Century are very good songs that I think you would like. Actually, just about anything by them.
I love the rich build of sound in this song. The layering in of different instruments along with excellent lyrics makes for such a unique sound.
This has always been a top 10 for me. Love it
You guys will love their best album "Crime of the Century"!!
Great reaction as always. I don't think I stop smiling the entire time you two are reacting. Thanks for your joy!!! Bless you both.
Hey guys! These guys were my sisters favorite band when they were releasing these songs. Very interesting band from England. They had two lead singers. You hear the second guy occasionally in the background. Eventually they broke up and did solo albums. They both did OK but they faded away after that. At least in the US.
I really enjoyed that. I've never liked the vocals of Supertramp, especially the heavy reliance on falsetto, and never paid any attention to the lyrics, so having this be a lyrics video opened new vistas for me. Another night, another groupie, another joyous roll in the hay, and early morning exit for the next city on the tour. Most guys don't have the luxury of having their travel arrangements all planned in advance before they bed a girl. You wake up, and you're in the same town with her, she's expecting a phone call, you might bump into her anywhere while out and about, she might find out where you live, key your car, or otherwise make your life miserable. But he knows when the tour bus leaves the hotel, or when the plane takes off, and he's outta there at the crack of dawn. No commitments, no regrets. It's a brand new day! Overall, a very interesting philosphy to have for a rock star, one that celebrates his way of life. That instrumental outro is so great, just a guy high on life, or high on something, booking out of town with no baggage that breathes.
Two very unique singing voices, that's for sure. As a kid I thought (Hodgson) was a chick . The Logical Song comes to mind lol. To me, they are what makes that band tick though.
@@funkster007 There are more wondeful musicians and singers than there are people who can write a great song. Supertramp wrote great songs, and that is more important than the singing or the "lead electric piano".
@@Yesquire0 Well of course, they are excellent musicians and songwriters. I never stated otherwise. But the vocals do stand out for me in this particular musical outfit. Btw, you do realize "lyrics" are very often an important ingredient to what makes a well written song right? ;)
@@funkster007 My initial point, somewhat obliquely set forth, was that mediocre singing of the lyrics tends to discourage any investigation into the content of the lyrics, while excellent singing tends to make you want to look them up. Rarely are lyrics discernible upon simply listening to the song, although, once you've looked them up, they are sort of magically made forever clear.
By this time, supertramp had become very much more commercial.
Previously,,they were most popular among the progressive rock crowd.
I saw them on this tour, they were awesome.
My favorite song is fools overture.
Remember, this song came out in the '70s, in a time before AIDS made casual sex life-threatening. People slept around a lot. He was a guy who got around a lot and liked it that way, like many rock stars of the time who had a different groupie every night in every city where they played.
100%
This song just sounds like a happy, upbeat rock and roll song to me, nothing out of the ordinary as far as classic rock goes. Although it had its uniqueness as well. Its own flavor. Interesting to see how different people view things from different perspectives according to their past experience and environment.
Supertramp is just one of those amazing bands that you can just put the album on and just listen to beautiful music
My favourite Supertramp song! I LOVE IT! GREAT REACTION, GUYS!
Lex always looks like she loves music and is really enjoying herself on every song.
Supertramp are one of the most underrated bands of all time. I have always loved their music.
I messed up getting a greatest hits album. Too many great Supertramp songs to cram into a compilation disc. Live and learn. Thanks for the reaction.
"Breakfast in America" is Supertramp's high point, but there are good cuts throughout their catalog... a band that deserves more props from a era filled with great bands.
@Brian Johnston They WERE huge, but most people under 35 have never heard of them [or many of their contemporaries like the Little River Band, Kansas (beyond, "Oh! That song they used in 'Supernatural' a few times... that's Kansas?!?"), REO Speedwagon, and others]. To folks who think Foo Fighters is "Dad Music" and Nirvana is "back in the day" music, they have no idea who Supertramp are. When I said they deserved more props, I meant from more than the 55-and-older crowd who bought "Breakfast in America" on vinyl or cassette when it was a new album. I was a late-70s to 80s kid (high school class of 1986) and I knew the music of Fats Domino, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, the Coasters, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, etc. It's no different, really.
"School" from the album "Crime of the Century" is Supertramp at their shredding best.
Absolutely!
Most definitely. Played this out loud at high school when I was,a senior.pissed off the teachers ah screw em
🤔🤔🤔 This is it !!!! This is ST Masterpiece, the one that everything came together at one point and Voila!!!! If you really but really want to enjoy their wonderful legacy you’ve got to listen the entire album. Every song is a testament of their incredible talent as a group. One of the finest from England. 👍👍
Bear in mind the band has 2 singers with 2 distinctive voices & accents (U.S. & Brit). Great band.
Not sure what you mean by this? Davies and Hodgson were both born and raised in Great Britain. Their voices are each distinctive but there is no US versus Brit accent.
@@CaryOn11 I was just gonna say that, glad I checked out your answer before I did. Yep they're both from the South of England (Portsmouth & Swindon I think).
Ha, loved your reaction Lex. It's funny, Supertramp is a band I don't actively seek out to listen to but I bought this album in high school when several of the songs on it were on the radio all the time and I played the hell out of it and then at one point I got burned out on it and just never returned. But that was really great hearing this again. And I think you're right; to me it's a very uplifting song about moving on, starting a new phase in your life, that kind of thing. I could totally see it as putting on your makeup and getting your energy up. And yeah, the Mary and Jane references sure do evoke weed, but of course it can mean lots of different things at the same time. If in fact he intended that as at least partially a tongue-in-cheek reference, still it would certainly be in the context of, I'm not going to do that again for a while, I'm going to keep moving every day and not just sit there stoned. If you haven't already, please please please check out the three other big hits from this iconic album. I've never met someone that Supertramp doesn't grow on oh, especially these songs. This is from Wikipedia:
Breakfast in America is the sixth studio album by the English rock band Supertramp, released by A&M Records on 29 March 1979. It was recorded in 1978 at The Village Recorder in Los Angeles. It spawned four US Billboard hit singles: "The Logical Song" (No. 6), "Goodbye Stranger" (No. 15), "Take the Long Way Home" (No. 10) and "Breakfast in America" (No. 62).[A] In the UK, "The Logical Song" and the title track were both top 10 hits, the only two the group had in their native country.[5]
I wish there was an artist and /or band in today's day and age that can replicate something this good again .This stuff was so great back in the day ! ♎✌️
Breakfast in America is a great album 👌🏻
