For anyone watching this in 2024 or later....I'm the lefty lead guitarist in this video (I couldn't get access to the old account I uploaded this video to). I just stumbled upon this after forgetting about it for almost a decade. After reading all these wonderful comments, I wanted you all to know that most of us in this group are still pursuing music in various ways. For instance, the acoustic guitarist in this video is now Olivia Rodrigo's touring guitarist. I currently play in a touring band called Eminence Ensemble. Most of us in this video are still doing the damn thing! Thanks for watching, everyone. Means a lot!
I am over 50 years old and when I see this I have hope for the future. If kids in 2041 are still playing Boston songs, the human race might just survive.
Well stated BLOWN AWAY BY THIS i have the space ship/guitar from the first album tattooed on my arm with "it's been such a long time," and my father's initials He introduced to this amazing group by playing it very loudly in front of me as a 5 year old IM FOREVER GRATEFUL RIP TO MY DAD RIP TO BRAD Both left us in the same way Both amazing men ♥️
I watch this video every few months to remind myself that kids are still rocking out to the music I grew up listening to. There is hope for the next generation.
I have no idea why it took the internet 12 years to show me this. But it's awesome! I hope all of these lovely young people are still out there making music somewhere! Great job everyone!
Man, that lead singer is a firecracker and what a voice! She reminds me of a young Janice Joplin! It'd be cool to see what she and the rest of the band is up to nowadays!
This actually made me cry. I listened to this on my way to go skiing every weekend when I was 10 years old. It is great to see young kids jam to these tunes. Good for them! Long live Boston!
Wow, these kids were AMAZING! The lead girl is like a bomb ready to explode! The camera shaking when the guitar blasts means the camera person is rockin out too! Love it!
Fanyastic job of a very difficult and demanding classic rock song! The execution and adherence to the details and nuances of the song were superb! I would bet Tom and Brad (God bless his soul) would be proud! Outstanding!! These young musicians have much to be proud of!!!
This video was posted 11 years ago and I just watched it now in 2022, and WOW!! The energy flowing from that lead singer was just crazy! So powerful!! I wonder where all these young musicians are now? 😎
Good lord that was fabulous! Gotta start with the drummer, he held it together flawlessly. Then the lead guitar player nailed every note. And the rest of them carried the tune perfectly. But the lead singer's enthusiasm was so contagious that it made the performance!
As a guitarist - and a Boston fanatic - you all did an AMAZING job. The voices were great, the keys were perfect - and that lead guitar player totally GOT IT!!
That was dam good, seriously now! Drumming, base, electronic organ, harmonies, lead vocals, and then our young 'Jimmi', lefty with very good control, just needs more confidence! He has been trained, you can tell! Great stuff, lots of energy and passion!
Boston's 1976 debut album was one of the best in the decade and I still have mine. These talented kids just nailed it. Long Time is my favorite cut from it. They brought back those wonderful memories since it's been a while since I got my album out. The cutie lead singer gave it everything she's got and then some. The late Brad Delp would be very happy with this.
Oh yes these kids are fantastic it's amazing It seems kids play so well and singing so good Very inspirational especially songs that I grew up with I'm 72 years old I love watching these people say play and sing they're fantastic it's amazing how many people in the band they're fantastic Awesome totally cool very neat amazing
It is so wonderful to hear and see this..very young girls and boys playing real instruments with such a passion and perfection! Singing with their hearts with such freedom, authenticity and real talent. Each and everyone enjoying real music made alive with no computers or tricks. Such a great experience! Congratulations to all!
way beyond what you might expect WOW!! Great performances all! Terrific to watch youth diggin' the songs we grew up on! We were damn lucky to be hearing Tom Scholz's "basement tape" creations in high school!!! Keep on rockin ya'll...
I was sitting in a discoteque an early evening in ‘76 with 4 other guys when the DJ put on their album in the background. We were all blown away after a couple of tracks and we HAD to know who that fabulous band was. The day after we bought the casette and cruised along in my car with Boston roaring from the speakers 😊
Thanks to all the parents like me who grew up in the 60's and 70's and introduced thier children to the music we listened to at thier ages. Great cover!
Watching this cover again and saw this post about 8-tracks. Back in HS the first Mod to my first car was to install and 8 track player and amp. That was the bomb back then. Second mod was flipping the air cleaner cover over.
Wow 12 years ago. Wonder where they are now. I can only imagine how much time and work they spent together to preform like this. I sure hope you all have great memories of the time you all spent together doing something positive and great.
WOW WOW WOW as one of the biggest Boston fans on the planet - WAY TO GO!!!!! DANNNNNNNNG My father played THE HELL out of this album, this song from when it first came out until I left home , about 15 years!!!! I have played the hell out of it ever since I have a tattoo of the space ship/ guitar from the album cover complete with the words "its been a such a long time " This performance brought me to tears WOW MY father left us in 2001 in the same way Brad did It has INDEED been such a long time THANK YOU FOR PUTTING YOUR HEARTS AND SOULS INTO THIS ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I have never seen this before, and im impressed! This is a very difficult song, because it have a lot of dynamics. I hope you all did well in life, since this is from 2011:)!
I think these kids gravitate to the classic sound because the music was at it's best then and they want to be the best they can be. And doing a hell of a job at it! Keep on truckin you rock n roll kids.
Boston was my first concert, I was twelve, these kids parent's weren't even born yet. Just goes to show, great music is great music. My youngest is 19, he's all classic rock, ELO was his first concert, One day driving him to class he asked me if I had any Cream (I have over 8000 sons on my iTunes), he asked if I could play The Tales of Brave Ulysees", listened to the whole disc on the way to school. You don't have to be Old to appreciate great rock music.
Take’s me back to tape I had in my car 70s going down to Donington park watching the bike GP good time of my life not a care in the world well played ❤
Please keep it up you guys I want to keep enjoying watching today and sing this is awesome I love watching you guys you guys are fantastic You have future I'm sure wish you were the very best all of you You're all great You're very good music players and singers you're awesome Thank you for the memories ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
Second time seeing this cover. SO good. Goosebumps, baby! I'm a 59 year old dude who grew up with this music. You guys did SUCH a great job...all of you!
Well that bass player in the back she’s really keeping that band together she’sGot that song together on that bass sounds fantastic through my speakers on RUclips perfect tempo

Hey, thanks for the update! Good to know these things!
Rock on! Everyone rocked that song, especially the lead singer. She has a great voice.
Thx for the update. I love this video and you all killed it!
Very cool to read. The second guitar solo on this is in my top five favorites. Really nice job.
Bring Rock Back. I hate the shit that's being played.
I am over 50 years old and when I see this I have hope for the future. If kids in 2041 are still playing Boston songs, the human race might just survive.
I am 74, a musician and I feel the same way ~!
Well stated
BLOWN AWAY BY THIS
i have the space ship/guitar from the first album tattooed on my arm with "it's been such a long time," and my father's initials
He introduced to this amazing group by playing it very loudly in front of me as a 5 year old

♥️
Good point. Let’s just hope it’s contagious 🎸🎸😎
Ditto
🎸🙋♀️Thank you Great point!

Kid on the lead guitar, DAMN SON, you go boy.
It's not only about the notes. These guys capture the music, spirit and vibes from the era. Great job, I wish I was there.
I have no idea why it took the internet 12 years to show me this. But it's awesome! I hope all of these lovely young people are still out there making music somewhere! Great job everyone!
To see young kids listening to Boston is amazing. To see then playing it gives me hope for the future!
Where r they all now WOW
Having seen the origal Boston do this song in 1976, I couldn't give these kids any higher praise. Fantastic.
yeah right
@@lukemanify Tulsa Assembly Center October 22 1976. Google it. Weather you believe I was there or not means nothing to me
Lukemanify
You are obviously not a musician in ANY way shape or form
This is excellent ( if you know what talent is )
@@ianhaywood3460 Didn't mean it sarcastically. See my other comment. Could have put it another way...
lol apologies for that mate@@lukemanify
Man, that lead singer is a firecracker and what a voice! She reminds me of a young Janice Joplin! It'd be cool to see what she and the rest of the band is up to nowadays!
As an old guy, this made my day.
This actually made me cry. I listened to this on my way to go skiing every weekend when I was 10 years old. It is great to see young kids jam to these tunes. Good for them! Long live Boston!
These guys man….hats off take a bow! Love seeing kids make a Boston rock classic come alive. Keep it going!
Wow, these kids were AMAZING! The lead girl is like a bomb ready to explode! The camera shaking when the guitar blasts means the camera person is rockin out too! Love it!
There is nothing about this that isn't great. Every instrument, every voice nailed it. Just great.
Fanyastic job of a very difficult and demanding classic rock song! The execution and adherence to the details and nuances of the song were superb! I would bet Tom and Brad (God bless his soul) would be proud! Outstanding!! These young musicians have much to be proud of!!!
This video was posted 11 years ago and I just watched it now in 2022, and WOW!! The energy flowing from that lead singer was just crazy! So powerful!! I wonder where all these young musicians are now? 😎
I was going to comment the same thing but i saw yours. Totally agree. 🎉❤
Same here. Dang...We'z old Timey!!!!
Good question. Hope they are all well and still rocking on.
Isn't music grand ?
She over did it a bit.
Right On I'm impressed. Class of 77
Good lord that was fabulous! Gotta start with the drummer, he held it together flawlessly. Then the lead guitar player nailed every note. And the rest of them carried the tune perfectly. But the lead singer's enthusiasm was so contagious that it made the performance!
Spot on. Seemed to me she was channeling Janis Joplin! Loved it.
What's her name
My words exactly. Music like Boston will never die.
@@stevebader6385She was channeling Brad Delp
This is why rock and roll will never die 🤟
As a guitarist - and a Boston fanatic - you all did an AMAZING job. The voices were great, the keys were perfect - and that lead guitar player totally GOT IT!!
Man, EVERYONE got it! I listen to this cover at least once every couple of weeks. So good! Wonder where the band is nowadays?
Jon Baglo would be proud. He does the same remake. His dad is a record producer, Dale Baglo. Has a studio in house. Check them out
Music can bring joy and fun into your heart and soul..this band showed that great job
Could not have said it any better! You kids are amazing!
Ditto!
Singer moves and dances like a person we all know. Channeling a little piece of our hearts.
yes!
I thought the very same thing.
Same thought indeed
Like a ball and chain
My thoughts exactly.
This is an absolutely brilliant cover of one of the best rock songs of alll time.🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲☮️🏴🏴🇦🇺🇸🇪😁🥳
Wow. I bought the album when it came out. The music is legendary, as is this cover. Just wow!!!
SPOT ON!! Damn I lived this but to see these kids carry the TORCH!!? Bravo!!!!

That was dam good, seriously now! Drumming, base, electronic organ, harmonies, lead vocals, and then our young 'Jimmi', lefty with very good control, just needs more confidence! He has been trained, you can tell! Great stuff, lots of energy and passion!
Incredible! Awesome cover. The lead singer is a true rocker. Great vocals and stage presence.

It's been over 10 years since this recording. I hope the kids watch the video today and think, "we really killed it!".
It is so wonderful to hear and see this..very young girls and boys playing real instruments with such a passion and perfection! Singing with their hearts with such freedom, authenticity and real talent. Each and everyone enjoying real music made alive with no computers or tricks. Such a great experience! Congratulations to all!
Opino lo mismo🎉
Cast of characters in this one is amazing. Lots of free spirits. Love the barefoot and love the peace sign on the wall. Rock on.
I'm old enough to have seen Boston do this song live back in the 70's , this was Absolutely Outstanding!!
Ditto... they nailed it .. sounds as good as the 8 Track tape original I had.
My wife and I saw Boston tour this album on our second date! These kids killed it! I gotta go back and watch it again!
The lead vocalist and lead guitarist are just amazing, love this song and this performance hits it out of the park!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!
I love seeing these youngsters nailing my era of music. Kudos to all of them.
Saw Boston in Long Beach just once. These kids brought it back. Thank you. Your awesome.
I am truly impressed by this group . This is not an easy tune to cover you gotta hit all the cues have to be tight and this group is. ✌👍
Man ! Young and talanted , what the world needs more of !
Amazing. The energy here is electric. Rock lives on great job
😮 Never have I ever heard a Boston cover, usually the request is followed by "no way can we do that"! These kids are awesome!
Mom, I don’t wanna go to public school anymore!!!!
I WANT SCHOOL OF ROCK!!!!!
Just saw this. The keyboard player and lead guitarist - WOW!!!!!!
Glad to see you mention the keyboardist.....he is an "unsung hero" of this song and their performance!
Boston - always a great band. To hear these kids killing it. I love it. And this is without a doubt one of Boston's best songs.
Very nice performance of one of Boston’s best
this deserves more likes, such a phenomenal job,,
way beyond what you might expect WOW!! Great performances all! Terrific to watch youth diggin' the songs we grew up on! We were damn lucky to be hearing Tom Scholz's "basement tape" creations in high school!!! Keep on rockin ya'll...
This just so much fun to listen to and watch..these kids are having so much fun..and they are good...
Awesome cover! Never in my life i would see youngens out there jamming this out, and killing it!🤘
I sure would love a "where are they now" about any of these awesome kids who pursued careers in music!
God wish i could have went to school of Rock! I went to school of hard knocks Rock! ;)
I remember driving my 71' Camaro through the streets of Ft. Lauderdale Florida when this Boston song debuted in 1976. Amazing!
Me, my 68 Charger RT through the streets of Metro Detroit, rock on!
I was sitting in a discoteque an early evening in ‘76 with 4 other guys when the DJ put on their album in the background.
We were all blown away after a couple of tracks and we HAD to know who that fabulous band was.
The day after we bought the casette and cruised along in my car with Boston roaring from the speakers 😊
Me and my 1970 Vitamin C orange Roadrunner. Windows down and my
8-track smoking.
@@homebrew2070 I forgot, I too was smoking Marlboro Reds back then. We were cool as hell weren't we. LOL!
Just like that my faith in the next gen getting along just fine is restored. Thank you.
One of Best Boston covers I have ever seen, fantastic job.
Thanks to all the parents like me who grew up in the 60's and 70's and introduced thier children to the music we listened to at thier ages. Great cover!
Yeah man! This album came out when I was a junior in high school! We had the greatest music in the 70’s
This rock group gives me chills with their version of the Boston hit
No doubt that RUclips is a great avenue for young musicians to get exposure..
All i got is anazing job. The future all of a sudden doesnt look so bad. Ive seen Boston do this live twice and these guys have got this
I’m only finding this now!!! Wow. Great to see young people enjoying this as much as I did when I was young.
I wore out an 8-track of this album, Its great to see young artist enjoying it and just putting their heart into it 40 years later ..
Watching this cover again and saw this post about 8-tracks. Back in HS the first Mod to my first car was to install and 8 track player and amp. That was the bomb back then. Second mod was flipping the air cleaner cover over.
Nerds Rule, these kids are amazing...... one of the greatest songs ever.
Keys were awesome, so was everybody else too, GREAT JOB
Smiled all the way through this. Love it!
