Only song on the debut album written by Brad. Only song recorded in LA by the full band. All the rest of the album was out of Tom's basement studio. This way Tom got the sound he wanted and the Record Label got proof the band could handle the music.
All of those Brad Delp vocal overdubs at the end are just insane! He is most definitely one of the greatest rock vocalists of all time! Gone too soon...RIP.
@@xindaxoxou7431 🧬🔬 Wow! By aging 35 biological years in just 1 real year, you have accomplished the _opposite_ sci-fi goal than I've been shooting for! You see, I'd prefer to _only_ age _1 year_ for every 35 real years that go by.....
The definition of a perfect album. Tom Schulz = musical genius. His underrated bass playing, innovative guitar sounds and guitar work, keyboard playing, sound engineer quality and production skills are second to none. Very few musicians achieved this level of artistry. Thanks for leaving Polaroid and making music instead :). Oh and also thank you for finding Brad Delp to sing these songs. The harmonies and melodies are just perfect. Top 10 rock album of all time for sure. Not a dull mount on this one. 8 perfect songs.
Had a girl a lost in high school 08' graduate here young still but made her mine over ten years later. Our son was made over this song. Long live Bostons music
A beautiful, perfect song, ive always wondered why this isn't as well known as More Than a Feeling, cuz it deserves to be. When this album came out in the late 70s, and just like Van Halens first album, it wss like an atomic bomb went off!!!!!
I have always loved this tune! The ending of it goes into an amazing rocking lick that gets the adrenaline flowing! I used to quarter mile drag race my old 1968 RS/SS Chevrolet Camaro, that was a beast back in the day, while blasting out this tune on my Jensen car stereo! Ahh…. The good old days! Boston is a major part of the soundtrack to our lives! Long live their music! Thanks Tom for creating a timeless legacy. 😎👍🏻
The 1960s and 1970s for me the worst years then the 1980s good I was a adult then get away from the drama and the 1990s were the best. I had mental health issues from 70s to 1980s then 1990s finally got the help. Music fantastic for me 1970s to 1990s.
The production values for this song, the entire album, were multiple decades ahead of it's time. Sholtz had talent beyond those days technology. Imagine the product, the music, that could have been had litigation not hindered the groups momentum.
The ironic thing is that Tom was only a partial producer for this one song. The backing track was recorded in California by Barry, Sib and Fran with producer John Boylan (while Tom worked on the rest of the album at his home studio), then Tom added Brad's vocals and mixed it to match the sound of the rest of the songs.
I was just down the road from you then. In 1976, I would have been 16 and in the 10th grade at French HS, Beaumont, Tx and burning up the roads in my '66 white Volkswagon Bug. Just over five bucks filled the gas tank and it would go forever before having to fill up again. Seems like yesterday..........but feels like a whole lifetime since. Oh wait, it kinda was, almost 50 years ago. Damn we got old fast.
And here I am at the last song on side 2 of the record. Such a great album. Makes me think of when I was in 10th grade listening to it when it first came out in 1976.
I too was in the 10th grade when it came out! Loved it then and still do.Nice to know someone my age is still into music like this!!! Seventies and early Eighties had the best music and it's all I listen to. The memories of where I was in life all come flooding back!! Boy those sure were the good ole days,lol!!! Thank you for posting this. Love every song on the album.
I was born in 1962 and turned 62 July 2024.the late 70s 80'S 90's were the best many great memories. Lots of loust back then. Great tunes. Ear buds in blasting that music and locked the world outside. Going down memory lane. Still here September 2024.!
This song wasnt done in Toms, Watertown studio . It was recorded in L.A. ... the only one that was..Thats why it sounds different from the rest of the album...
How the boys never even got ONE NUMBER ONE #1 song off off the RIAA is impossible. That's what the RIAA does, bunch a wise extremely wise guys that ❤️ 😍 💖 love people like Boston so much that that's what they do pick CCR for example. At least they let them have AMANDA out the door 🚪 in '86. It probably 💔 their little hearts to, 2.
Boston was one of those bands that seemed to be popular but not as popular as they probably deserved. I was in my early teens when most of their stuff premiered.

I just read that on Wikipedia. I had never noticed it before. Are you familiar with the album cover for Supertramp's Breakfast in America? That's another good one that has a lot of implied imagery.
RIP Brad. We miss you. You were one of a kind.
One of the best bands. No voice like Brads
Been A Fan Since I Was 16 I'm 64 , Never Get Tired of Boston 🎸‼️
17 I'm 65 I know every word to every song still on the Boston album ; )
63 from Boston
rock n roll man
Beautiful !!! Music just hasn't been the same since the 70's.
So true ❤

Agreed100 he definitely was🌹🌹🌹
Outstanding vocals🔥🔥🔥🔥
Easy my top 5 Singers
@mixhaelamikovich he is definitely in my top 5 as well!
One of the best rock albums of the seventies.
Yes! Of All Time! 😻
Huh? LOL
Definitely one of the best debut albums of all time, if not THE best!
One of the top 20 of all time
A gem preserved for posterity, one of the few perfect albums ever made, thank you forever to NOT just another band out of Boston.
We have some good bands, but these guys are top tier for sure 🤘
Well said
This is one of my favorite albums I own. I found an original press from 1976 in a record shop in upstate NY
It took the about 7 years to make this album.
An absolute MASTERPIECE!!
No words for Brads Voice
Well said
One of the most memorable guitar openings of any song in rock.
Chills. Where have the years gone? Thank you Boston for the fantastic memories.
Yesterday I was 20, now I am 55.
Good tune! ❤ this reminds me of someone I met at ramada inn. What a beautiful soul and so handsome! Had the best time ever!
Boston was is and will always be the shit.
Their music will always have a special place in my heart.

1976 I used to sing this to my GF April, senior year, she's gone now but every time I her this song I think of her
Who remembers that famous Boston Beltbuckel!! The 70's what a great time to be alive.
Pacifica belt buckle
@@silversmith3982 very weak band compared
I've rediscovered this song and album recently....so amazing.

I'm not like this I'm really but I get this feeling whenever you walk by
Boston my favorite band
What a masterpiece from the first song until the last❤❤!
What a classic classic 😊
This one was different however it didn't have their fuzz box
Listen to Boston at least twice a week , they just don't make albums or music 🎶 like this anymore.... I'm glad it was in my lifetime..... Rock & Roll

That's so gricken brother .U go back cruising in ur 68 RS/SS listening 2 BOSTON on ur Jensen Cassette .love it
High school , part time job at Winn-Dixie …. Boston …. Good times.

I love them just as much now as I did when they first came out. They are amazing.
A rocker from my childhood I've never forgotten. Song I can't not sing along to even if my voice isn't great, I can hit MOST of the notes. :)
To all Boston fans, hey did anyone ever realize the artistic Boston trademark album spaceship cover
is actually a guitar upside down!
Your right and all of them are.👍
maybe some are guitars, but the most prominent one in front is a bass cuz it has only four strings.
@@h7opolo if you're referring to the "bridge," 1) they're all like that and 2) the headstocks have 6 tuners
Damn I didn't know that. There's really something new to learn every day. Thanks!
Just found out by 1st comment & yours. Thanks
THE 70s STILL RULE,
BRAD wrote this song!
Ive played this album atleast 1000 times
Arguably the most perfect album ever recorded. Delps voice. Incredible
1970s memories Jefferson High San Antonio Texas. Me and my Chick in my 1966 Dodge riding on old Hwy. 90.
I was just down the road from you then. In 1976, I would have been 16 and in the 10th grade at French HS, Beaumont, Tx and burning up the roads in my '66 white Volkswagon Bug.

2024 and great music is still GREAT MUSIC! Thank-you for the music that made my teens and my today 💕
Love this song
Love every song on this album! Not a bad song on it!

Great song
LEGEND TOM SCHOLZ
This song wasnt done in Toms, Watertown studio . It was recorded in L.A. ... the only one that was..Thats why it sounds different from the rest of the album...
it made no sense to put this song at the end of the album. Honestly it should've never been on the album in the first place
Best guitar solo of all time? Maybe.
How the boys never even got ONE NUMBER ONE #1 song off off the RIAA is impossible. That's what the RIAA does, bunch a wise extremely wise guys that ❤️ 😍 💖 love people like Boston so much that that's what they do pick CCR for example.

Still kills
Tom sholze in was a very underrated guitarist
There were at least a few kids concieved to this song.
Isn't that the truth!
bOM DIA!!!
Not a bad song on this album or the second album either
Agree
Boston was one of those bands that seemed to be popular but not as popular as they probably deserved. I was in my early teens when most of their stuff premiered.
Art Class Senior year, Mrs Owens, three albums, Peter Frampton, Aerosmith, and Boston
RIP to the head Singer 👍👍👍👍
This and More Than A Feeling go back and forth as my favourite Boston song. Right now, this is winning.
Legends 🥁
Beautiful 😍
True story I quoted these lyrics to a waitress at a bar one time my buddy's now been married to her for about 10 years.
Haven't heard this in forever!
Let's GO!!!
Let me take you home ❤ sunshine 🌞🌄
One day 🌞🌄 sunshine I will wait 🥰😘
