    Fantastic song. As a metal head growing up in the 80s, all of 70s music that seemed "acceptable" was the harder stuff like Sabbath, Zeppelin etc. So it took me some time to discover those more "sophisticated" 70s rock bands like Supertramp, Steely Dan etc. Glad I did eventually.

    Supertramp earned their superstar status one song, one record, at a time. This song from from the very successful album BREAKFAST IN AMERICA was their crowning jewel of the decade. Other songs like RUDY,
    HIDE IN YOUR SHELL,
    TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME,
    and the excellent musical journey of CHILD OF VISION are worth a listen. Keep that inner child open and alive for as long as you can, Maddie. It keeps the smile on your face. And that makes us all happy. Enjoy

    For me, this song and Styx's Grand Illusion will be forever linked. Both came out in roughly the same time period and both talk about getting caught up in the rat race instead of being yourself. The two actually started opening my eyes and significantly impacted my young life as far as what kind of person I wanted to be. Such good messaging in each

    Supertramp had a great run of four terrific LPs from 1974 to 1979 with Crime of the Century, Crisis? What Crisis?, Even in the Quietest Moments, and Breakfast in America. A curious blend of elements of prog and art rock and bluesy pop.
    More from the 1970s could include songs and albums by the bands Steely Dan and also 10cc. Plenty more, of course.

    This song has always spoken to me on an emotional level. I'm naturally a friendly, optimistic person but years of dealing with people has made me cautious and suspicious of everything and everyone I encounter. It's easy to see the bad when you are trained to always be on the lookout for it. Worse yet is that they punish you socially if you don't continue faking being ok. I want to be ok. I want to see the good in people. I want to be able to trust someone without fearing getting hurt for petty reasons. But that's not the kind of world we live in and I hate knowing that.
