    One of the most emotionally evocative songs ever, always brings a tear to my eye. I met Brad Delp once, he was such a humble, down to earth guy, his suicide really hit me hard. Such a huge loss.

    This song helped me though many high school moments feeling alone and searching for who I was, it gave me strength when I was feeling down. It takes on a whole new meaning whenever I hear it now after Brad's death. His voice was so amazing, and I heard so many nice things about him -- he was MORE than the man he was meant to be, I wish he knew it.... RIP

    I can relate to this song , I once was given the ultimatum by my wife to quit doing drugs and drinking . I tried so hard but I was a fake I. did a good job of hiding it from her but I got caught with my hand in the cookie jar . I honestly tried to stop but just couldn’t , she left and today I’m sober . Go figure , coincidence?

  • @jklmn101

    This has always been one of the weirdest of my favorites, simply because the force progression of the music builds pretty early on, and it has a long distance to travel to the end. There is a lot of love and stress being expressed in the song, and what's missing in this version is part of one of the extended lead solos that helps really build it up to the end. What I've learned is that the length of the song itself it part of the total expression, and it makes a difference.

    This was one of my most favorite Boston songs BECAUSE of the guitar work. The way that one cool flowing semi-solo part works (you know the one I mean), is just magical and gives the song a cosmic feel, which kinda goes to Boston's entire guitar sound to begin with. The way they tune their guitars to sound like this was their signature sound. Very innovative for a 70s rock band.

    Tom Scholtz did the lead guitar on this one ,though Barry gudreau ( I may have misspell his name) was mainly the official rhythim guitarrist of Boston in the first two records ( still most of the guitar work was done by Scholtz). Is a great but heartbreaking song especially after Delp's suicide decades after this song was written.

    This song brings out a lot of emotion. Unfortunately ,suicide is a permanent solution to a possible, temporary problem. Brad Delp had one of the best voices in rock and roll music. It's a shame someone didn't see his path to end his life Before it happened. If you like his voice like I'm sure most people do. You should check out the group 38 special. Their lead singer Don Barnes, Has a similar voice.

    • @sethbaruti4367
      @sethbaruti4367 4 года назад

      I really like Don Barnes. I've had the privilege to have met both he and Brad and, without any disrespect at all to Don, as he's an excellent singer, no one compares to Brad for me. Brad had every bit the range of Mercury and, I think, a more soothing tone, but simply wasn't the flamboyant showman that Freddie was. If substance mattered more than style, Brad would be every bit as much the household name Freddie is and just as much on people's lips when they think of the best male rock singers. Never mind that he never would have wanted that level of fame.

    Hi, I love your reactions and I've loved this song since it was first released. I grew up in the same hometown (Danvers, Massachusetts) as the lead singer, Brad Delp (RIP) and my oldest brother graduated high school with him. Brad was a huge Beatles fan and his yearbook quote was "Have you heard the new Beatles album"? (he also played in a Beatles cover band called Beatlejuice for years while he was in Boston). Tom Scholtz started the band and he is a musical and electronics genius (he has a masters degree in Mechanical engineering from MIT). He wrote, recorded and produced nearly the entire first Boston album in his basement and he played all the guitars, keyboards and bass. The drums were played by Sib Hashian and all the vocals were sung by Brad Delp.

      Can't help it, to watch all these people (not just them) in this awkward position of being basically forced into a positive take on every song they're hearing for the first time is really cringalicious. Often reacting to music they're not even inclined to naturally, or familiar with... But they want their channel to grow, so they're going to talk well of it. I'll tell you what, there might be three or four songs ever that on the first listen I REALLY liked, it's just a fact that it takes a few listens to come to truly appreciate a song. It's just really contrived, but it's a fascinating bit of human behavior to observe nonetheless. 😁

      Ugh, your comment really hit me hard. A simple question that really gets at an extremely painful and complex condition in people like Brad Delp that built over a long time. For such an extreme act that devastates so many, we have the right to ask why, and the fact that the answer given in every suicide note is completely unsatisfactory to us left with the hardship of the loss only serves to reveal yet again there is in fact a spiritual component to human beings, and the answer lies there. Also yet another proof that popularity, fortune, respect, love, talent, sex, drugs...these things we all think will fulfill us simply do not.
