"Crime of the Century" is an operatic concept album dealing with the folly and ignorance of youth and the "crime" of a wasted life. It's an album best enjoyed start to finish.
This LP is a top 5 all-time for me
Great lp. Music and sonically. Seen them probably about 79/80 or so. Amazing sound.
And the title track is one of the greatest songs ever
Supertramp was buried treasure as they were accomplishing what Pink Floyd were doing without the fanfare. They always were under the radar. Most of the world were asleep even back when this album came out.
@@marcelliott1111 There is an argument that Crisis what Crisis was as good... personally I can't decide. But then again I love everything they did, oh the dilemma ;-)
'School' is about how schools expect you to act a certain way, and, if you don't, you'll be cast aside. So if you want to do something your own way, its up to you. "It's always up to you if you wanna be that, wanna see that, wanna see it that way!" -'School'.
For me, it's a Mother watching over her son, being protective and watching him proudly go off to school, where he'd conform to the set standards and ideas of education, without really letting his creativeness shine...as with many kids. A theme they expanded on with the Logical song. Conformity, expected to be someone you're not in order to fit in.
Making boys act like girls....more true now than ever!
Finally!! Someone got it. I've seen too many reactors get the meanings wrong. But they didn't grow up when this music came out.
This is the correct interpretation
Roger is playing the part of the mother though. The antagonist voice is played by Rick. The last part is a war going on with Roger stomping his way through making the determination that one can continue pointing in the upwards direction if that is their choice.
We need to take full responsibility for what our eyes behold.
Crime of the Century is a masterpiece.
so true. astonishing production for 1974
One of the best.
A lot of old English rockers really hated school. They felt it was warping kids. The Who, Pink Floyd, Supertramp all had songs about it.
And they were all right. Most millionairs are drop outs.
Of course they did ,
Those English rockers all grew up through the 60's and many teachers were ex military from world war 2 they were hard, strict men mostly who went heavy with corporal punishment as they all came from tough discipline and parents who rarely showed sympathy
Yes. This! This is what it was about.
Add to this list the Kinks "Schools Boys in Disgrace" album.
Supertramp are just a unique group and their live performances are something else!
Yes, there is a lot of great live performances by them on RUclips.
I saw them once in the late 70s just by chance. A friend of a friend's brother worked for the promoter putting on the concert and had 4 tickets waiting for him at will call. One of the most amazing live performances I've ever seen.
I saw them on their Breakfast in America tour in 1979. That show still ranks #2 of my all-time favorite live shows I've seen.
This song is about the system shaping us the way they want us, and don’t want us to think for ourselves.
Roger Hodgson, was sent of to a boarding school by his mother, he called himself an introvert during that time and used music. playing and writing as a way to cope with what was going on inside him
Hard to believe this is almost 50 years old, great music really is timeless.
This song is another example of what Supertramp is known for. Build up. Roger is playing the guitar and is the lead vocalist. Rick starts out playing the harmonica, then the Wurlitzer electric piano and then switches to a piano plus backing vocals. Dougie Thompson starts out on an organ and then switches to his bass. John Helliwell plays clarinet throughout the song. The "shhhh, shhhh, shhhh you hear is Roger's voice. They switch from one instrument to another during songs and in between songs when they are on the stage.
Supertramp was one of the highlights of the late 70s.
This song has a haunting element to it.
The entire album does because it's explores the tragedy of a wasted life.
Top 10 favourite albums of all time for me.
Finally my favourite Supertramp song 😍😍😍
Supertramp had such a totally unique sound.
And this album Crime of the Century was recorded before digital & is absolutely impeccable. Amazing to hear through headphones. Perfect production.
Two master song writers in this band, one of the greatest bands ever IMO. So much innovation, so much structure, texture the whole bit including amazing progressions. Incredible band in concert as well.
I'm 67, and grew up in the San Fernando Valley in CA in the 60's. I've listened to this song MANY times, and have never made the effort to pay attention to the words because for me, music is about the MUSIC, and the lyrics are secondary. What always amazes me is how young these musicians were when they were writing and performing this music. Most of them were in their 20s.
Sherman Oaks in the house.
Rick left home I believe at the age of twelve years home to try to catch on with a band. His mother said he would one day watch a drum corp parade by and would go marching following after them never to return as the same after that. The incredible maturity came from Rick. He spoke of a group he once listened to as a youngster - this being his version of Supertramp - and would listen to it over and over never getting enough of it. After his dad died, Rick had to go back home to work in a steel smelter to take care of his family. Rick let out here recently that his first chance to play with a band only need someone that could play the organ which he knew nothing about. So, he would fake it.
This is such an amazing song!! Great progression. Great lyrics.
Absolutely GREAT SOUND!
Thanks guys. Waiting forever for someone to give this track some love. ❤️❤
I love almost every single Supertramp song. Saw them in concert, should have went to many more Supertramp shows. Fantastic band.
One of my favorite concert's ever. They sounded the same live.
I love Supertramp. Rudy and Even in the quietest moments are two of my favourite songs by them. Bloody well right was the first song I heard by them way back in the 70`s.
Supertramp is one if my favorite groups. School is off of Crime of the Century. Most fans myself included consider it a concept album, the band has always denied that. School to me is about learning the lessons taught in school, not the politics in society often learned in school. Loved this and glad to see you guys enjoyed it a well.
Again, this explanation of a song that doesn't fit your explanation is wrong. Each member of this outstanding band probably has a different explanation as would every listener. Self righteous you are.
@@VMIHATER ok thanks for that. I guess I would consider myself lucky if you were to tell how wrong my opinion is on other things in life. Its people like you that make me want disconnect with the small things in life that give me joy. Again thanks.
I saw Supertramp several times in the 70s. This song when played live was breathtaking.
Such a great song! My favorite of Supertramp.
My fave Supertramp song. Good one.
I remember when we first heard Supertramp in the 1970s. It was so different, so fresh. A revelation!
What an album, will go down in history as a masterpiece
Supertramp at their peak. Commercial success peaked with Breakfast in America. But to me Cre of the Century was when they were at the top of their game, artistically. Amd this was my favorite song on that album. Good review.
Even in the quietest moments , Lord is it mine and Casual Conversations by Supertramp are well worth a reaction video.
Brad & Lex, you will love their "Dreamer" and “It’s Raining Again”!!!
"It's Raining Again" - is one of their best singles.
Two very good suggestions no doubt!
@@Prone2Thrill thank you!
4:06 One of the coolest instrumental segments ever!!
You should have included the build up before the spilling over. There are lots of hidden vibe slaps and whistles in that instrumental as well.
As a token of appreciation I suggest you listen to the entire 1979 Live Concert of Supertramp in Paris, it´s a magical experience.
When this came out is was a huge hit with the rock crowd. I loved it! Still do. Great reaction.
School is my favorite Supertramp song, although Fool's Overture is close. But I think it starts out as if it is a stranger danger song, but by the end it has morphed into the opposite. By the end the message seems to be, don't let them scare you into conformity. The idea is that as a schoolboy everybody is telling you what you should be to be good. But the singer ultimately comes down on the side of not conforming unless you want to. Ultimately you have to decide what is right and what is wrong.
Such a great band!!! This song is another example of being a master at composition. Anyone who listens to this becomes a Supertramp lover. Crimes of the Century is often overshadowed because of the huge success of Breakfast in America but it has some moody amazing songs too!
BiA was such a let down and sellout. in my unit a lot were big supertramp fans and when BiA it was such a wtf is this.
@@vinceaaron8921
Exactly. Im like is this the worst song ever made?
Crime of the century was the best artistically and Breakfast in America was best commercially.
Great choice and reaction. In 1978 I bought a 1975 Camero. I installed a Clarion stereo with a cassette deck. This was my go-to tape for driving alone at night. I still have that tape. I just don't have a tape player anymore. Also, the teachers could smack you around for acting up if your parents gave them permission in public school. Then your parents would kick your ass for causing trouble.
One of my favorite songs of all time off of one of my favorite albums by one of my favorite bands!!! This is the tip top cherry on top music here boys and girls...
Great band, unique sound.
We are all so lucky to have not only the music, but the information about the song and the band right at our fingertips. Back in the day, if you heard a song on the radio, but the DJ didn't tell you anything about it, you would have to wait and wait and wait until it was played again and then, maybe, just maybe they might tell you the name of the song, the band, the singer, etc. It could literally take years (and it did) to find out stuff about music back then unless your friends knew or the local music store knew or something like that. Just crazy.
Very true. You really had to do your homework.
That's what Rolling Stone magazine was once good for. 😎
There were also Liner Notes on most of the albums, so when you bought the vinyl you sat there are read everything they printed on the jacket and the sleeve while you listened. In the days before the internet left DARPA and Stanford, that's how I learned the connections between and histories of all my favorite bands.
Saw them live twice in Calgary in the 80's. Fantastic live. Rudy was always a stand out track.
My first ever rock concert was seeing Supertramp at McMahon Stadium during the Breakfast in America tour! I was 14 at the time.
Best Supertramp song ever. Thanks for getting to this! One of the all time best albums beginning to end.
So many great songs from Supertramp, but this song and Crime of the Century are probably their best.
You never know what expect with Supertramp, you only know for sure that it will be great and different!
It was like that in the 70s. Btw, that whole album "Crime Of The Century" is amazing. It's a sort of concept album about growing pains. Every song is fantastic.
Such an underrated song. My parents used to play this at family get togethers when I was a kid in the 90’s, super nostalgic
Awesome song. So clean sounding yet so layered and complex at the same time. This song (and album) are a go to to test out a new sound system because it sounds so so good. The clarity and richness on the bass is really nice. Very very inventive band. Song for me is about a kid getting pressured into being the best he can at school, the kid wants to enjoy life and is pressured.. But at the end, you're coming along. :)
Four masterpiece albums:
Crime Of The Century
Crisis? What Crisis?
Even In The Quietest Moments
Breakfast In America
Two very good albums:
Famous Last Words
Brother Where You Bound
The live album " Paris " is superb
They are art rock/prog rock/prog pop...all songs good /very good/excellent/masterpiece(as School obviously is)
Lyrics : a view of school from an adult looking back at he felt about school as a kid, the view hasn't changed as an adult
It's about being forced to conform to society's structure and stifling creativity and individuality. Indoctrination of young people. It's much like The Wall, or even Dylan's Times They are A Changin'. Back in the day, songs were quite often social commentary.
Love this song and the whole album.
👍❤🤙
"School" was one of the first Supertramp songs I remember hearing on the radio back in the seventies. Listening along just now, the piano lead in the middle passage reminds me of the uptempo passage in Jethro Tull's "Aqualung". An influence there would not be surprising.
Great song, great band . I’ve always been fascinated with the music on this song, lyrics are good but the music is so otherworldly, love it
fantastic band
We had corporal punishment in schools all the way through grade school and Junior High and then by the time I got to high school, it was a bit more like it is now and they didn't do that. And it was particularly a big issue for longer in Britain. The theme shows up frequently in the music of Pink Floyd, another British band.
Love watching your reviews of stuff I grew up with. You absolutely have to do RUDY from the same album. You will not be disappointed.
When this album came out it was one the best albums released that year, The amazing thing is that Supertramp was able to make 1 or 2 more albums that were even better. BTW: This song and Bloody Well Right, are usually played in conjunction. It's slightly sacrilegious to only play the one song.
No one ever questions how good Rick is playing the harmonica because of the passion he puts into it. He then transitions that energy into his piano playing.
I am so glad you guys finally checked out this particular song ! They have a ton of amazing songs and this one is right up there at the top !
Check out the entire album. It tells a continuing story thru every song one after the other from School thru Crime of the Century! Great album and I saw them live in 1985...great concert!
I listened to this like a religion as a kid from the wrong side of the street who worked hard not to be what he was told he was supposed to be!
Love you both and thanks for being here with your part of today!
As a junior in High school, I had a brother return from his first year of college for summer break. Knowing he had experienced a year of dorm life, and having bought my first car and 8-track player, I asked him what new music I should buy.
He asked me if I had ever heard of “Supertramp”?
I told him I hadn’t, but ran to the Mall and bought “Crime of the Century”. I have been a lifelong Supertramp fan from that day forward. I’ve seen them “live” 4 times and have never been disappointed. I wore out that 8 track, several cassettes, and I own pristine vinyls as well as CD’s of all of their music. I have never heard a bad song on their 5 most popular albums and at 65,
I hope to continue to listen until I take my last breath.
Fantastic song! Fantastic album!
I LOVE ❤️ Supertramp! Many wonderful songs, their albums "Crime of the Century", "Crisis, what Crisis?" and "Even in the Quietest Moments" are great. I suggest to you to listen to their song "Rudy" from the "Crime of the Century" album, a musical masterpiece!
Back in the mid to late 70s I played alto saxophone in that school marching band my favorite song by Supertramp a song called “my kind of lady“ the Sax work is unbelievable.
I can STILL VIVIDLY remember the Christmas of 1974. My best friends big brother got a new Sansui stereo system!!! AND the Supertramp album Crime of the century album for Christmas!! ALL the neighbours knew we loved the album
I have been fortunate enough to have seen Supertramp “The Tramp” Live 3 times. Their live shows are a spectacle and brilliant. Each member is a musical genius. Rick Davies is my favorite keyboards player and John Helliwell is favorite Sax player. He is a blast to watch live. The bass and drummer are awesome and Roger’s guitars are superb. The only live show I put above Supertramp is Pink Floyd, who I have seen 4 times.
When did you see them?
@@josemiguelcarrizo7373 1977, San Diego.... 79 & 83 The Forum - Inglewood. Awesome shows
Crime Of The Century album is very lot of people’s desert island disc. The whole album is brilliant and genius.
These guys create some of the best grooves in Rock. Great, great band.
A true masterpiece, feast for the ears...just love it! Rudy is another one similar to this, full of surprises.
Supertramp had some great concept albums, not just a group of singles made for radio. That was a thing back then and they were among the best at it.
This is a GREAT album to sit and listen to from beginning to end. It has quite a few of my favorite Supertramp songs, bloody well right, school, Rudy, dreamer. After that dive into their masterpiece Breakfast in America
There was nothing in the world better, than to sneak home from school lunch, with my friends, smoke half a tai stick and listen to this song shake the windows of the house.
Got to try Rudy it’s a beautiful song
200 % 👍🏼
201 % 👍
300%
i was a teen when this song was out, i allways thought it was about being young and growing up when life was changing for young people, and parents and teachers didnt see that we were young adults, not children, and that we needed more than just negative reinforcments about life, we needed to be encouraged to live life, to go out and be part of the world as it changed around us, and be part of the new world, no longer just doing as we are told, but deciding for ourselves what would and wouldent be, the 70's was a sweeping change in the UK for young people, a decade that would never be repeated.
Supertramp used to play in our high school cafeteria all the time. Memories!
For me, easily the best Supertramp album. Top tunes from start to finish.
Great track great album. You HAVE to listen to the title track. I'm sure it will blow you away. Keep up the great work you two.
BEST reactors on RUclips.
Oh, that smile when the piano part plays!
This was their 3rd album. Everyone reacts to this album. Nobody reacts to the first two albums. There is some serious gold to be mined in them thar two albums. Especially the self titled first album.
OMG love it. Wow. The best of the best. Supertramp. Good luck sorting this out.
Supertramp were an excellent and complex band, and this is one of their finest.
Also, it seems like Pink Floyd took at least some inspiration from this for "The Wall".
Love this album
One of my favorite Supertramp songs!
Supertramp are magnificient.
I am turning 40 soon and i loved them since forever.
My favorite Suertramp song!
Thanks, kids - this is pretty much my favorite by Supertramp.. the instrumentation is awesome!
Supertramp I have seen them 3x and I absolutely love their old stuff. Being from Detroit area Ford Auditorium a 3k seating venue would have concerts during the week for bands that were up and coming for $2.00 from 72 to 78. My cousin had listened to their previous album Crisis? What Crisis? and talked us into going. There were 3 bands Supertramp, Reo Speedwagon and some other band. Reo was decent but Supertramp came on played this whole album and some older stuff. We were godsmacked. We all walked out of there wondering how they have not made it already. 2 months later they exploded. They became to myself very pop after Breakfast in America (borderline pop) which is the result of record companies and success.
It's about the Prussian model of schooling, like that used in the US & UK, that institutionalizes kids, turning them into obedient slaves to the State.
Didn't see any of that come into play these past few years did we?
(edit) That is to say, look how obedient so many were.
Never question, just roll up that sleeve.
True artists.
One of THE best bands EVER!!!!!❤
IMO, this is the very best of Supertramp!
This album is a masterpiece front to back! Sonically it’s amazing and is my audio test album along with SD’s Aja .
More Supertramp. Amazing band with lots of amazing songs
Thank goodness for Supertramp.
Hi I always felt it was just about society's high expectations of conformance and how that can limit creativity.
Pink Floyd songs were sometimes about that as well
Roger Hodgeson is a genius. Thanks for playing this gem. ❤
As with a lot of albums from this era, it's better to hear this in the context of the album, which is all about how society's conformities f**k you up. This song leads naturally into "Bloody Well Right", which continues the concepts of it. The whole album is perectly produced and orchestrated too - the way the instruments blend into each other is wonderful.
One of my favourite songs from one of my favourite albums.
this album is an actual narrative... back when albums were a complete and total "art" or creative concept.. from album cover graphics thru to the lyrics etc... Dark side of the Moon being the most famous such concept album.. someone made doco on the subject.. it's out there somewhere
You did it, my favourite song of all the times!. It is so special, different, emotional, I Love it. The atmosphere is unique in this track, I will love it all my life. Thank you
