Вольный перевод с английского:
"Знает ли кто-нибудь вообще, который час?"
Однажды я шел по улице,
Ко мне подошел человек и спросил,
Который час на моих часах?
И я ответил:
"Знает ли кто-нибудь вообще, сколько времени?"
Я - нет. Волнует ли это кого-нибудь?
Если это так, я не могу представить, почему,
В конце концов, мы всегда найдем время поплакать.
О, нет, нет...
Однажды я шел по улице,
На меня взглянула хорошенькая женщина и сказала,
Что её часы с бриллиантами встали намертво.
И я ответил:
"Знает ли кто-нибудь вообще, который час?"
Я - нет. Волнует ли это кого-нибудь?
Если это так, я не могу представить, почему,
В конце концов, мы всегда находим время поплакать.
О, нет, нет...
Однажды я шел по улице,
И меня толкали люди, которые пытались куда-то успеть.
О, я просто не понимаю этого,
Люди повсюду куда-то спешат,
А я не знаю, куда податься,
Я не знаю, где я,
Я не вижу дальше своего носа.
Не стоит думать о последнем часе,
У нас нет времени оглянуться вокруг,
Мы всё бежим, бежим и гадаем,
Знает ли кто-нибудь вообще, который час?
Я - нет. Волнует ли это кого-нибудь?
Если это так, я не могу представить, почему,
В конце концов, мы всегда найдем время умереть.

How many of you come back, and listen to this time and time again. It never gets old. Love you guys!
I sure as hell do! Especially when I get some time to myself and have a few cocktails. It always puts me in a good mood.
Me
Me too
Yup
Yup
The drummer is a machine
Seriously. The whole band is incredible but he’s SO solid you end up paying attention to the drums more than you normally would. Plus he keeps his drums pretty ‘dead’ like Steve Gadd which is a solid plus too!
IGOR!
THE WHOLE BAND IS !!!!!!!
The guy is amazing. Deep deep deep in the pocket
I've gone back and listened to the original Chicago songs, and listened to the drumming in particular, and man that dude was killer too. He gets no credit because of the horns and the unique sound, but he's due a lot of props.
Note-for-note, nuance-for-nuance. These guys are the absolute very best cover or tributes that I've ever heard, incredible!
Yep. They are that. Fantastic.
So true!
I love those Russians and Ukrainians!!!
@@elisabethlinz4256 ....and i love baby poop!
@@gregorytyse9317
What an intelligent remark!
@@gregorytyse9317 do you love yourself
Chicago created these songs. Huge accomplishment. These amazing musicians play this music to perfection. Kudos to boh
Facts🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ok I’m back. I’ve been listening to the original recording for like an hour on a loop. For the first time in my audiofool life I’m going to say it…THIS VERSION IS BETTER. Start flinging the stones now. The dynamics, the whole breadth of this rendition is PHENOMENAL! These guys are absolutely WORLD CLASS MUSICIANS. Perfect, Perfect, Perfect!!!
yea, I've actually back to back compared. These guys nail it. (They DO seem to use more musicians though) Bottom line though, they raise the song to a level it probably never reached before, and certainly they do it better than the current iteration of the band known as Chicago
The tune original version by Chicago Transity Authority is how this tunes original sounded and that total smoothness. Saw this band in Amarillo with two other bands and that was my first concert I'd ever attended and it was worth every cent. Fantastic concert and artist. This is before they broke up and changed their name - forcefully.
Oh, please...
Perhaps you're hearing the band's love for music ... the desperation to spread love and peace to the WORLD. They have more to 'prove' than Chicago did, I think.
Their guitarist is WAY better than Chicago's current guitarist (Tony... and Tony ain't bad)
Their show is one of the highest energy shows I have ever seen live.
THESE GUYS ROCK!
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How they do this!!! I’m speechless. This shows you what human being can do with love in their hearts
Fantastic!
And English is not their first language! Incredible!
What's funny is that they don't think that they're anything special. When they tour the USA or hit them up on FB, they all respond and chat for hours 😂😂
Bravo! I love this song! Many good memories thanks guys well done!
YES!!! I’m with you my brother. I have loved Chicago since 1969. I have the Chicago Transit Authority album in my collection. These guys are great!
The band is truly awesome. Seeing Chicago 8 times starting in the mid 70s, I can appreciate how very good this band is. Keep Chicago rockin.
They were touring with Earth Wind and Fire recently.
I TOTALLY AGREE!! 😀🖐🇦🇺🐨
These guys are phenomenal. Not only does it sound like Chicago, it sounds like the original studio recording. Bands are always trying to "make a song there own," but it takes extraordinary talent to replicate a recording down to the last note and inflection. Often even the original band cannot duplicate there original recording when they are live. Of course, there performance is all the more amazing considering that they are not native English speakers. Bravo guys.
They must have a different lead vocalist now and sounds different but they are still good...5 1 2024
I CANNOT stop watching & listening to this group! Since I ‘discovered’ them, here on RUclips, 2 weeks ago I’ve played their entire catalog over & over (& over ...). As both a vocalist & horn player growing up in the ‘60s & ‘70’s in America I was obsessed with the great horn bands like Chicago; Blood Sweat & Tears; Earth, Wind & Fire, et. al.. I marvel at the exquisite musicianship displayed by all of these immensely talented people and only wish I could could ‘sit in’ with them!
Leonid’s ability to cipher these tracks - BY EAR - is reminiscent of the scene in ‘Amadeus’ (movie about Mozart) where Mozart hears Salieri’s march played once by the Emperor Joseph II ... which leads to Mozart sitting down and playing it and then running many variations off with ease.
Okay, back to the present from my obscure movie reference ... Leonid & Friends musicianship, obvious passion and enjoyment of playing keystone music from my youth has brought tremendous joy to me in what has been (like so many I suspect) one of the most difficult years of my 60 year-old life! (2020)
I am a disabled Veteran living in chronic pain and fatigue from Parkinson’s disease. My medical providers encouraged me to return to my musical & artistic youthful endeavors for ‘Neuroplasticity’ ... and it’s been one of the most effective means of pushing back on chronic pain and keeps me from falling into the twin abyss of dopamine deficiency induced Anxiety & Depression.
I, however, hit a very rough spot, 3 months ago and stopped painting and playing my music. That is ...
UNTIL I heard Leonid & Friend’s opening riffs of Chicago’s “Make Me Smile”. ... which, in a profound way they did!
Thank you so very much to all of you in Leonid & Friends for returning music, joy and hope back into my life!
Hi Rock Head! First of all thank you for serving our country ! Welcome to the Lenheads! Lol
My bf and I had a rough yr last year health wise and when we heard them I looked them up and by golly if they weren’t going to be in concert an hour away a month later . Bought tickets right away . Met so many ppl on their Facebook fan page before we even went .
Omg do you know my bf did not stop smiling the entire concert ! Everyone was smiling and singing along . It’s like we were born again or something! It’s really weird how they’ve made such an impact here. Now , go get your art supplies out and next time they come here you HAVE to go see them!
Judy Patterson Ayala thank you so very much!
Rock Head - Thank you for your service! I been playing drums for over 50 years, and guitar for over 40, and like you, this band reminds me of why I started playing and listening to music in the first place. I just can’t get enough of seeing their joy in their playing and singing...
Strum Bum thanks Strum ... I’m on Sound Cloud if you wish to hear any of my music. Most popular is a cover of ‘Vincent’ (Starry Starry Night by Don McClean) .... so appreciate your kind words!
Oh, and Judy ... thank you for the gentle nudge back to painting. I won a National juried Veteran Art show in fall of 2017. My icon is a self portrait ;)
The sound quality is superb. Hats off to the audio engineer.
Yepppppp
BRAVO 👏 👏
Good choice of songs nice job guys someone taught you well
No doubt. The mix and levels on this are perfect.
This band doesn't need my approval they are outstanding!! Took me back to my high school days on the lakefront in Chicago (yeah) everyone who was there knows how beautiful it really was.❤❤
I’m 67 and saw Chicago three times in their heyday. You guys have absolutely nailed it! Thank you for bringing it back so perfectly...
Your comment "Covers" me exactly!!!
I remember watching Chicago in 1979… they were the finale at Chicagofest at Navy Pier… I’ve never gotten over the live horns. These guys are a close 2nd. 👍🏼
They absolutely nailed this❣️
Steve thank you for your comment I'm 37 years old I've always been a ol soul I wish I could have seen eagles or chicago in their hayday.
dude music's not whar it used to be
OMG !! Holy Crap these guys sound 'exactly' like Chicago, they're hitting everything right on cue I can't believe it. They're AWESOME !!
NO !!! the guy DOES NOT sound like Robert Lamm at all, this guy has an accent! YUK! The background singers does sounds like.
Olive Rivera - yuk, really..... are you serious......... I think you need your hearing fix. He may have the slightest accent but yuk is not an appropriate response for these talented musicians.
Bart Simpson Booo Hoooo! I’m crying so hard !! The replicas are so good!!! ... NOT !!!
Olive Rivera - well, at least you got one thing right, olive...... for a brain. Pickled with a pimento for an ear. Booooo hoooo, little kid playing on mommies phone ☎️. Okay, there’s shit in your diaper, time to shower the shit out of your ears so you can hear well!
And yet it's just different enough to know that it is a cover, as it has its own unique sound.
Okay this is getting ridiculous now.
Every time I click on these guys my mind is blown.
Me too....
FEELING THE SAME! UNREAL!
The same way I feel. Out of this world.
I agree!
It's crazy how good they are!!...Sometimes I forget this is a cover and think they're actually Chicago!!
Every time I watch this I end up with tears in my eyes...
I love you guys.
The fact that they included the spoken part in the last verse is what gets me.
As a tribute to the one of the greatest bands in the world! Shit, what band has EVER been better.
Back for another few dozen listens 👍
I don’t think there is another band that can cover Chicago as good as these guys can!
Correct Paul..At least we have not found them yet..:)..The best of the best!!!
Not even Chicago!
I've seen Chicago once or twice. I've seen Leonid and Friends 2 times.
I prefer Leonid and Friends.
Here's hoping for a third time in a couple of months.
@@toober4013lol!!!
The trombone sign off is beautiful - so damn accurate and so cool.
I have such a weird connection to those 2 bars of music, ive always loved that trombone sign-off, so good.
Absolutely Incredible!!! How could ANYBODY not love this!!! It's just Perfect!!!
Our band leader back in 1970 was like leonid. He taped this song and wrote the sheet music for our stage band. I played trumpet. Our stage band played this song ( along with others ) at a competition in North Dakota. We took 2nd place out of 18 bands performing. Can’t say enough for the experience and fun being in band with such a dedicated teacher.
That’s a great story/memory. 😁
Im guessing chicago music is a huge favorite of high school and college bands everywhere.
Back when high school budgets hadn't yet slashed the music program.
As a former horn player and band leader for a popular group here in the USA, let me just say that these guys are amazing. As good as Chicago, who I love dearly.
Anyone I may know?
@@pacificcoastpiper3949 Kurt Hansen was with Head East, if this is the same guy.
I have seen this group 7 times in my life a great group
It is so good because they are using the original music and not playing the horns you hear.
@@joebeardfw IF so, very cool. Head East was awesome.
I was prepared not to like this being a huge Chicago fan and having seen them so many times live. WOW, was I ever wrong! Great freaking job!
This kid did a gell of job an drummer ALL of them did great!👍🥰😔😥miss Chicago/ earthwind FIRE ETEC ALL GOOD bands..the crap that's out there now music AWARDS isnt music to me..
Listen to everything, you will not regret it, they do Chicago better than the original. Remember, they barely speak English!
@@julieannkuster1999 Can't even compete, I really hate to call today's sh-- music, electronic drivel.
Same here… These folks are fantastic!!!
They sound exactly like the band Chicago. Absolutely Phenomenal!!!!
That horn section though! Amazing!
Does anybody really know how much joy you guys bring to all of the world wide ,life long Chicago fans???? Don't come to America guys because we won't let you go!!!!! Sergey, the way you rip that guitar and sing the American women will definitively make you stay!!!! Seriously, may God continue to bless you all now and forever.............
Gregory Crnkovic chicago doesnt want them to come I think Theyd have to compete with them for concertgoers ....yea I'm serious
@Texbluejeans Uh no. Not better than the original. Each one stands on its own merit.
New York City on 1/8/19, Los Angelis, CA on 1/11, 12 &13/2019, Rosemont, IL on 1/15/18, Highwood, IL on 1/18/19, Dallas, TX on 1/20/18 and Clearwater, FL on 1/22/19.
What he said … for reals!!
Correct 💚💚💚💚
This group is possibly one of the best on the planet, great horn section, magic vocals, well done!
OMG, this has got to be the most incredible cover of any American pop song I’ve ever heard in my life! It really sounds exactly like Chicago!!! I mean the rhythm, the instrumentals, the vocals (and HARMONIES!!!)…. Absolutely incredible!! And these guys are in Russia?!? Do they even speak English??? I have no idea how they did that! It’s like listening to Arnel Pineda singing old Journey and Steve Perry songs…UNCANNY!
I've only just discovered L&F tonight and I've listened to every single thing they have on RUclips. Every song is perfect.. better than the original usually. But every nuance of the original is in tact. The engineers who mic'd these sessions are as talented as the players, really. I'm an engineer and musician and I can tell you that both are important to what we hear.
Ron, you're gonna miss some sleep late nights listening to L and F. Of course it's worth it. You can also enjoy the visuals and individual efforts the members of the band put forth. Be well.
I agree 100%. The studio work is impeccable. Everything, every instrument, every voice, is crisp and clear. This band sounds brand new and shiny clean every time.
Currently touring USA
kick ass drummer , sweet horns , excellent vocals..they have it all 👍🏻✌🏻☮️🇨🇦❤️💯😊
that drummer is incredibly strong and very musical
Some people come for the hot blonde, I'm just here for the drummer
You can tell they are having fun, as well as being awesome musicians.
It would be fabulous to see them in Canada!🇨🇦
🤗🤗🤗🤗
Man, this is so incredibly smooth and good! Please do not stop making these.
The 5a r e mono mp n m
This is without a doubt my favorite Chicago song!!!! Saw them in concert ..... way back in the ‘70’s !!!! Omg!!!!!
Damn fine rendition!
JUST PERFECT, SO EXCELLENT, TOP OF THE WORLD MUSICIANS
Sitting by the campfire and just heard this for first time...... ya , life is good !
I'm 59, live in Georgia ( U.S., not Europe--smile), and have heard Chicago sing this several times live over the years, and you guys sing this as well as I've ever heard it. Very well done, sirs....
I'm a few years younger than you but I also grew up listening to Chicago and they nailed it. What is even more surprised is that she didnt grow up speaking English. Playing jazz is tough but they are tight.
All I had to do was close my eyes and be transported back in time to the greated era in music. Well, done gentlemen. Bravo
@Jim McCracken It's called a typo friend. Wanna make someting of it?
You said it right 82 Luft.
Not really, it's called being human
Maravilhosos!!!!!
It's magic with Serge or Sergey or Micheal on vocals and Igor on the drums. I grew up listening to Chicago all of the 70's. The difference is barely noticeable. You put so much work into every song. It brings tears to my eyes how well everyone in the group is so talented at what they do, keyboard, saxs, trumpet, guitar work, vocals and of course Ksenia. Best cover group of all time !!!
AMEN !
The intro of this song is one of the most beautiful things ever recorded!
Hang on, while I pick my jaw up off the floor!!! Perfect cover!!! one of the best Ive ever heard!!
Sure is
From an American 50 year fan of Chicago, this is an outstanding cover of one of their best songs.
Wow!!! I can’t!!! This band is like voodoo!!!!! They’re superb!!!!!!
This group has left me speechless, full of admiration remembering the music of the 70's. Absolutely brilliant!! Come to Europe some day pls. Ricc
Terry Kath would be proud of these wonderful musicians..
Keep on playing boys..Cheers 🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Jimmy Hendrix stated years ago that Terry Kath was a great guitar player. Now that's impressive coming from a great guitar player. I loved Terry's raspy voice too especially in Color My World.
Unbelievable, Without a doubt the Very Best Cover I've Ever heard in my life. And this Chicago Song - is a Masterpiece.
I grew up Listening to CHICAGO; and if anyone would have told me as a child, that another band would come some 50 years later, and would be BETTER THAN CHICAGO! I would have thought they were CRAZY!! And then, LEONID & FRIENDS SHOWED UP!! NUFF SAID!! 😍♥😘🙏
When you have that many musicians in one room you know it's going to be good
The attention to detail is impeccable!
I was a huge Chicago fan in the day. This group of musicians are absolutely amazing. There are not the words to describe what a miracle this music by these people is.
Thank you Leonid and Friends!
Excelente interpretación Maestro Voroyev y su grupo a esta " sabe alguien realmente que hora es? de nuestra querida Banda Chicago ah como no!!!!!
These guys nailed it!!!! GREAT JOB!
Good stuff in every way. I'm a 68 year old and remember this song being on the charts and being played on the radio. Hearing it takes me back to the care-free days of my youth.
How I wish I could capture those Care free days. Best music ever
I remember when this song came out, too.
Graduated in 82 from HS; Chicago was always tops in my book. Great Horns. Love this tribute band. ^5
First time I heard it was on a cassette tape a neighbor kid let me listen & he recorded it from the radio in 1971.
I just time traveled
As a musician who plays trumpet, guitar, and keys these guys are TIGHT! The horns are spot on and the vocals are better than the originals. I've played in several bands thru the years but nothing close to these guys. Thanks.
They are just so tight!!
University music grads who didn't get a gig. Brilliant players but not satisfied as a studio musician.
Great performance by one and all. I used to play myself. I still have to give the nod to Chicago, because after all they wrote it.
They’re great but missing Terry’s grit.
They are all in the pocket, great feel.
Congratulations. As a long time Steely Dan fan, I am blown away by the attention to the music detail, just fantastic. Chicago too - immense!
This isn't so much a tribute to one of the greatest bands in the world as it is one of the greatest bands in the world performing somebody's original from 48 years ago.
David Muzzatti That is the best compliment!
Word!!!....
David Muzzatti Exactly!!!
Well said!
David Muzzatti
I agree! Generally I'm sceptical of so called tribute bands, there's a certain parasitic sense to someone doing Zeppelin, Beatles, Allman Bros, or Stones shows for a living. I'm of an age that I have fond memories of the real thing. I loved the first couple of Chicago's lp's, but felt ambivalent about the rest of their output. It's a treat to hear their best music played so well by guys who are so passionate about it.
Amazingly !!! Brilliant! !!! Excellent to infinity and beyond !!!
As a Trumpeter it olny inspires me to perform with excellents.
These guys JAMMED...if we ever get to the Pleiades, I'm certain the Greens would dig this music.....check the time, man.
I played one of your songs to my wife and I said to her who is this and she said "Chicago" as a huge Chicago fan you do them justice, keep up the great work, absolutely fantastic.
Great drummer. Not easy pulling off Chicago tunes like that. Hats off!
Listened to this two times and it
takes me back to a simpler time
in life when I was carefree and
had time on my side !!!!
I want to thank you for getting me through these times. I have tears in my eyes because I have no other emotion left to express the level of joy I experience when I watch your video's. Thank you today from CA USA 3/20/2020
I'm sadly going through these same depressing times with you, Corona virus and now riot's in the US because of another police murder of an unarmed black man.
I heard " Feeling stronger every day" on a local oldies channel and looked it up on RUclips. Thankfully I discovered Leonid and Friends and will enjoy and spread the word of their amazing musical talents. Let their music get us though 2020 and beyond.
Same here. Became a widow and have to go through these scary times without my best friend. We always used to listen to this song. When I watch this wonderful talented band, I Cry.
@@williambonson6846 L & F are a gift during these trying times. On the riots, look up the actual statistics for yourself - do not rely on the national media to inform you - on the comparative rarity of those encounters (I'd recommend Heather MacDonald's articles). B on B homicides are much more common. Look at the city of Chicago year-over-year.
I can tell the difference between Chicago's original studio version and this version. THIS VERSION IS EVEN BETTER!!!
Beautiful 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I Can Listen to Chicago 24/7 Almost like when I Was a Kid in the 1960,s -70,s,,, Chicago 🎶🎵🎼🎼🎼They were The Greatest Group of Musician's for me, back then And still are. 🎼🎵🎶👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I've seen Chicago 8 times in concert. This is amazing musicianship.
I'm from Chicago..these guy's give me chills they're so good.
They are bad ass I can't believe how much they sound like the true chicago man this Orchestra is awsome never get tired of listening to there music 🎉❤
These guys are fabulous ❤
If only you knew just how much I watch your RUclips videos. I would love to see you live!
I cant stop. They are amazing!!!!!!!!
They summer tour (July/August) is in the works now! Check their FB page and webpage for cities!
Even have the dude in the background talking. Perfect.
For years I thought my recording was warped or something because I kept getting that " what I called interference". Lol. I had to watch this video to know that it was deliberate. I couldn't make out what was being said. Thank goodness for RUclips.
Terria Nesmith that’s hilarious!
Was kinda wondering if that was an original member
@@kurtroberts2310 In this video it was not. Terry Kath spoke on the original recording.
@@dav8388 Any idea who the guy on this video is? Seems a little out of place to do it this way.
Absolutely spot-on cover! Cannot get enough of this and keep coming back.
Makes your eyes water, great audio quality warm rich sound. Amazing talent.
Always have loved “The Brass” ever since the sixties. Yes I’m old. Brass sections need a comeback. Great job brass section !!!
Very Nice. Almost brought a tear, remembering my childhood. At 8 years old, grabbed my bike in the morning. Rode wherever I wanted. Back home by supper. Nobody cared about time. I was a man at 8. Lol.
I played this twice…only because I’m bowled over by your talents!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Outstanding rendition...Chicago's twin band!!!
close your eyes and listen... not sure you can tell the difference. Incredible
Oh... I can tell the difference. Better and cleaner than Chicago did it on their recording. They hit every nuance.
There's much less empty space too. The mix on this is much better than Chicago's.
All TRUE & performed live!!! It was like a trip back in time 😎
This is my favorite song from Chicago.. And when you play it, it's like hearing the original with touch of beautiful freshness...
I'll be the first to admit I wasn't a Chicago fan back in the 70's. I was rock and roll all the time and didn't care for horns in any of the music I listened to.
But now, and thanks to this perfect cover band I have a new appreciation of Chicago's music and talent. Their covers are spot on as well as those of Earth, Wind and Fire.
I only found they band a month or so ago....and I am listening to their covers everyday since.
And of course the young beautiful lady doesn't hurt..
I am 68 also thisband does an awesome job the horns goodjob.
Excellent example of excellence in musicianship. Wow. One of the best renditions ever!!
Thank you....
OMG!!! Close your eyes and IT IS the real sound brought back to our world all over again!!! Thank You 😊
Sounds just like an echo of the real deal band themselves, really well done there lads, bravo forever.
Again, Leonid and his friends hits it out of the park.
WOW WOW WOW. That was 3 1/2 minutes of unexpected fun. Such a good find during the sad times of this stupid virus.
Such a clean recording...love it
SO BEAUTIFULLY DONE!!! WONDERFUL TRIBUTE TO CHICAGO!!!
These guys are nothing short of awesome! They're way better than what's left of the original band. They should tour the US.
robertwbingo They have just toured USA and are coming back this June I believe.
@@Mij1965 Thanks, so much! I'll keep an eye out for them. I hope they include Houston on their tour. There aren't many bands that I would pay nearly any amount to see, but, Leonid and Friends are certainly worth it.
My pleasure Robert. I would be there too if I lived in the USA. Hope that you have a great time if you manage to get a ticket.
@@Mij1965 I played Trumpet, Baritone and Coronet since age 10 and am 72 now. I grew up just north of Chicago and loved the band. These guys sound absolutely INCREDIBLE !.[ tight, crisp and perfect !..would love to hear what Peter Cetera thinks of these guys...Bravo...they should be very proud of their work ! Peace !
Coming to San Diego...?
You guys are astounding. Love how tight and polished you are.
The Count is CORRECT..!!!
Very Nice!
Wow all I can say is wow these guys are amazing they show so much passion and energy in their performance
I just saw a live performance of this song by Chicago themselves dated 1998 outdoors. They just seem to get sloppier as they get older....this version BLEW AWAY CHICAGO BY A MILE!!!!
JUST WOW!!!
Smashed it out of the park guys!
👌👏🖐😃🇦🇺🐨❤
This tribute band IS the best, so much talent
This band is amazing. Every time I hear their covers of Chicago, et al, it literally brings tears to my eyes... reminds me when I first heard the songs on the radio, albums, etc. Leonid and Friends have given me hope for the world and bringing people together with their music. Keep bringing it.
They absolutely CRUSHED this! It is the GOAT cover of any song I’ve ever heard by anyone.
I would give anything to sit in a studio and just watch and listen to this great group of masters . This brass section is in sane ! All of you are amazing . I hope I get to see your show .
Just got my tickets for September 15 in Northern Indiana. Taking my older brother who introduced Chicago, EW&F, BS&T, Chase and others to my young ears. Time to thank him properly and this is it!
Wow. His voice . I'm in love.....they do justice to this song.. love it
Jesus Christ!!!
This IS Chicago!!!
Bravo!!!!!!!!
Brilliant!!
RUclips rabbit holes are the best things ever when they lead you to things like this! My new obsession! Thanks Leonid and Friends! Y’all have made my day….AGAIN!
OMG!! I was transported to the best days of the 70s!
Fantastic trumpet, trombone and sax!!!!
One of my all-time Chicago favorites, way to go guys!!!
This is so crisp and clear. Wow, what a song. Chicago is really smiling.
Outstanding! It's like Chicago Resurrected
I actually don’t remember Chicago EVER sounding this good...Like seriously this band is so tight, and I love that smug look Sergey has a few times because he knows they have absolutely mastered it. God bless, just phenomenal !!!
Chicago was untouchable but this band does them justice.
I love everything about Sergey.
I heard them live in the gym at Lamar University in Beaumont back in the early 70s when Terry Kath was still alive...and they were definitely this good, even in that kind of sound environment. Don't tell me that the original band didn't sound this good..I was there.
Nice job guys. From a Chicago fan for 50+ years. Hello from America.
