However... the trick with "goodbye stranger" is, if you do it from the "best of" album, it does not include the snapping fingers, you must try to find the goodbye stranger right from the Breakfast in America album itself.... otherwise on the best of album, it cuts the snapping fingers out, and just replaces it with the chorus line . . . so thats an FYI
Breakfast in America is from the same album as the Logical Song. However, this is a later performance by Roger Hodgson as a solo artist. (Although it's ‘his’ song, he wrote and sang it wth Supertramp.)
"Breakfast in America" is their biggest hit. A true "perfect" album. But some of their earlier work is truly amazing. I'd love to see you react to the piano licks in "From now on" or "Crime of the century", or the epic dimension of "Fool's overture". Not to mention the story of "Rudy" or the keyboard intro in "Bloody well right". And that's just for starters!
Girlfriend really isn't Central and may not even be actual in the song this is about Wanderlust this is about looking over different Horizons for something better and what you have Where You Are
"Crime...." is the turn on album of Supertramp..,saw these guys back when they were touring America for "Crisis? What Crisis" After that they went more pop than classic rock. The 2 albums I mentioned I bought. Not interested in the commercial albums that followed.
I recently found you on youTube. My wife and I have become fans of yours! We're older...61 & 55. It's great to see how much you appreciate the music we grew up with. May I suggest "Blinded by the Light". Manford Mann's version as seen on The Midnight Special. I think you'd enjoy it....appreciate the complexity of how it was arranged. This is a cover of a Bruce Springsteen's song from earlier in the 70's. Take good care!
Please consider this Frank Zappa performance. The song is amazing and the solo at the end is heart-wrenching! Thank you for all that you do! Frank Zappa Muffin Man Live 1977 HD
My dad worked at a record store called Peaches in the the late 70s where they had bands come in and do record signings. He gave Supertramp a ride to the laundromat to wash their filthy clothes. Child of Vision is my favorite track of theirs.
I don't know how its possible but I get so much enjoyment watching your enjoyment. It really fills my heart with happiness! Please don't stop. Your child like excitement ( I mean It in the best possible way) makes me smile... You are a diamond out here. Keep it up! You're succeeding in bringing folks together. Bless you.
Love Supertramp. Roger Hodgson has done a few solo albums himself although for the past 20 years (his last album with new songs was released in 2000) he's touring singing his Supertramp songs.
I swear after all these years. Hearing these songs millions and millions of times, until now I never knew what they looked like. That is blowing my mind. They didnt have videos in those days and bands were often heard and not really seen
J - you seem to be bringing NEW life to songs I've heard thousands of times in my life. I'm listening to them again with refreshed ears and I can't thank you enough for that, and the enjoyment I (and it seems we) get from watching you discover music that we also love! Keep doing these!! All my best to you! - David
@@iceman10129 To me a sample is just that a small bit, maybe a riff or a few bars, a small sample, used in a song. They used the whole Supertramp song as a template for their song . There's not too many songs like that out there. Maybe the Simply Red song Sunrise that tracks the whole Hall and Oates song or something like that.
TWO IMPORTANT SONGS From "The Band's Last Waltz": "The Weight" and "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". Others added, "Up on Cripple Creek" and "Mannish Boy". "The Last Waltz" was The Band's farewell retirement concert. It features TONS of great musical greats they knew through the years. Those 4 songs are the critical ones. Believe it or not, people would watch the entire movie with you if you did it.
Been trying to get Jamal to check out the Weight for a couple months now. Especially the live performance with the Staple Singers from the "Last Waltz". Heck, react to the entire movie.
Saw Supertramp live in 1974 and 1979. This is actually a video of one of Rogers solo tours. Saw singer songwriter keyboard player guitarist Roger Hodgson live solo just a few years ago.... by himself on keyboards and guitar, no backing band. still has the strong powerful voice. EXCELLENT! 😎🎼🎶🎶🇨🇦
Many more to do. Supertramp was such a gift. Everyone liked or knew at least one Supertramp song. My parents "claimed" to not like it, but I would catch them tapping along! "School" just pumps me up every time. If your not ENERGIZED by the time it ends, you sleepin'!
I'm gonna keep suggesting Kenny Loggins "Heart to Heart." Trust me, it's got everything you want: Michael Mc-D on backing vocals (and co-writer) and SAX!!!
Yesss !!, You have chosen the best way to present this song, composed by Roger Hodgson. I was there that day in London, at Royal Albert Hall. If you liked listening to it, you can't imagine living it live !!
'School', .Lord is it mine', 'Even in the quietest moments', 'Its Raining Again' are just a few of the deeper cuts, more likely to be less familiar to the public, but certainly loved by their hardcore fans and worth a listen at any time.
Is they keyboardist going for the Kraftwerk look? Actually 'Neon Lights' by Kraftwerk might be an interesting listen for the channel. Keep on keeping on :)
When I hear these songs from my youth I feel lucky I grew up listening to such wonderful music. It makes me feel sad for younger people because great music is just not being made anymore.
Jamel, the whole 461 thousand of us subscribers wouldn’t be visiting your channel if we didn’t love sitting with you and enjoying all of the great music. I’ve told you before and I’ll say it again you are at the top of the list of my favorite reactors. You are and outstanding person and it’s a great pleasure spending time with you.
“Goodbye Stranger” for a 4 piece today- please- the bass and harmonizing is fabulous!❤️💛✌️
I bought the 45 of that song when it came out. WORE IT OUT. Still to this day I'm not sick of it!
Sally Phillips great one! Hope he does it!
However... the trick with "goodbye stranger" is, if you do it from the "best of" album, it does not include the snapping fingers, you must try to find the goodbye stranger right from the Breakfast in America album itself.... otherwise on the best of album, it cuts the snapping fingers out, and just replaces it with the chorus line . . . so thats an FYI
Oh hell to the yeah!
Goodbye stranger is my all time fav of Supertramp
There’s always a rainbow after the storm .
Love ❤️ and Light
"Give A Little Bit" is a good one too.
Very Good....!
Yes very special and it is used as an adoption theme song for cats and dogs ❤️🐈🐶❤️
to listen to supertramp and leave out Goodbye Stranger, Give a little Bit, and Bloody well right is a travesty lol
@@evilvolts "You're Bloody Well Right".... "Do It For Johnny Man!"
@@2869may Poor Johnny [:(
Saw this man live here in Sao Paulo.
A great singer, musician and composer
So many brilliant songs
Breakfast in America is from the same album as the Logical Song.
However, this is a later performance by Roger Hodgson as a solo artist. (Although it's ‘his’ song, he wrote and sang it wth Supertramp.)
I have tickets to see him in November and..well...Covid 😔

You're right... you're bloody well right! :-)
Fools overture. Would be something Jamel has probably not heard on the radio at work.
Even in the quietest Moments
is EPIC
So true Alberto
Agreed! It’s one of the records I consider to be “perfect.”
You would LOVE Supertramp Live in Paris 1979. The best performance
Heads up Jamal, This is NOT Supertramp. Its Roger solo!
He's restricted to showing it live, as if he embeds the original Supertramp recorded version, he might get a DMCA takedown.
it’s still really good though. Rog Hodg never disappoints
Pro-tip: Never refer to your significant other as "Not much of a girlfriend"
But what if she doesn't got a lot : )
Girlfriend really isn't Central and may not even be actual in the song this is about Wanderlust this is about looking over different Horizons for something better and what you have Where You Are
But I never seem to get a lot
I'm not much of a girlfriend to the man in my life since he made me his wife.
That stands to reason.
"Goodbye Stranger" is a must
Thank you loved your reaction. Jamel you bring people together every day.❤️😃👍🌼✌️Love and peace
"Goodbye Stranger" is the next song to check out.
For sure!
Yes, this is an absolute.
And follow that up with "It's Raining Again"
@@karlsmith2570 I think he should check out Fools Overture
Be even more happy and play Chuck Berry. 'N try "What if God Were of Us" and "Jane" by Joan Osbourne
Supertramp is smooth.. Listen to that Sax and piano. Great musicians. Goodbye Stranger is a great song too. 💗
I love your reactions because it reminds me of how I felt when I first heard that song. Music is a uniter and you are a great ambassador. Thanks!!
"Crime Of The Century" is a classic rock standard specially -"School" right into "Bloody Well Right" and of course, "Dreamer"
Their best album I think
"Crime...." is the turn on album of Supertramp..,saw these guys back when they were touring America for "Crisis? What Crisis" After that they went more pop than classic rock. The 2 albums I mentioned I bought. Not interested in the commercial albums that followed.
This is actually Roger Hodgson performing 'solo' as opposed to with the original Supertramp lineup
Many bands have that one guy that can play ANYTHING/EVERYTHING.... Versatility is huge...
"Can we have kippers for breakfast, mummy dear mummy dear"
Always loved that line. Must do "School" and "Crime of the Century" next.
mummy dear mummy dear! hahaha if you were wondering where they were from that'd about settle it lol

Also Springsteens "Born to Run"
@@robinbeers6689 YES!!! I bought that 8track tape in 1975. Full of great music!
Please do The Hollies, ‘The Air That I Breathe” - a wonderful, soulful homage to love. One of the greatest love songs ever.
Yes, also "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress".
Yes, The Air That I Breathe. Please.
Supertramp is one of my favorite groups and Breakfast in America is one of my favorite albums🤗😍🤗
I know everyone’s saying it, but it’s true, you should listen to “Goodbye Stranger”. It’s definitely my favorite of the band. ✌🏻
Please consider this Frank Zappa performance. The song is amazing and the solo at the end is heart-wrenching! Thank you for all that you do!
Frank Zappa Muffin Man Live 1977 HD
Roger Hodgson's song "Had A Dream (Sleeping With The Enemy", is a great song. After he left Supertramp it was a solo song.
Rudy from Supertramp also a very good song
Hi everyone, try Buffalo Springfield field, Mr Soul, For what its worth, Blue Bird Rock and Roll Woman
Right on
"Nowadays Clancey Can't Even Sing", a great early Neil Young composition!
come into the deep end Jamel really the water is fine. So many masterpieces from Supertramp
The sax sounds a little like 'Klezmer' clarinet music.
Candy Dufler Pick up the pieces will blow your mind!!! Best female saxophone player I've ever heard!!!!
My dad worked at a record store called Peaches in the the late 70s where they had bands come in and do record signings. He gave Supertramp a ride to the laundromat to wash their filthy clothes. Child of Vision is my favorite track of theirs.

Love Supertramp. Roger Hodgson has done a few solo albums himself although for the past 20 years (his last album with new songs was released in 2000) he's touring singing his Supertramp songs.
Notice the “circus” vibe running through the song. It’s satire.
It's great to see them live and to see there still doing there thing. Awesome I luv it. ❤🙏❤🙏
Now ya' gotta' complete the experience and react to "Goodbye Stranger"
Thanks for another great reaction!
You hang in there as well brother peace to you and yours.
R.I.P. Alexander Supertramp
Roger Hodgson's version of "Had a Dream (Sleeping with the Enemy) is an incredible song!
School, Bloody Well Right, Give a Little Bit and Goodbye Stranger. These all are the Jam!!!
This is Roger Hodgson's version of supertramp .
....and as such, it is not Supertramp.
Correct
Live album by the teal Supertramp is called Paris. It is fantastic start tfinish
I still love and listen to these song, since the days they were first released ! That's 40 years !
1979 very early 1979 43 years ago its 70s
"Hide in Your Shell" mustn't be missed.
Rudy is brilliant, too.
I swear after all these years. Hearing these songs millions and millions of times, until now I never knew what they looked like. That is blowing my mind. They didnt have videos in those days and bands were often heard and not really seen
"Bloody Well Right" is a good one too!
Loved the SoloTramp tour Roger did too. So many great songs by these guys!
Hey my friend, not to be a know it all here but it’s actually a brass clarinet not a saxophone. Love your reactions!
You beat me to it but I didn't know it was brass. It did look unique though...
Isn't it a soprano sax?
Gary Moore Yes.
Soprano sax all day long....
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
Emerson lake & Palmer band, the song name is called “from the beginning” thank you Jamel!
Great song! My favorite Supertramp song is "It's Raining Again". Highly recommended!
You gotta do " Lord is it mine" it just brings you to tears

""School" and "Hide in your shell" and "crime of the century" are their best....you should try the Eurythmics or YES next!!
The song School is classic Supertramp, you will be blown away by that one.. 1974
Just looked it up.
Gym Class Heroes "Cupid's Chokehold" sampled this song.
100% thats why he did the "da da da da" after the line in the beginning. Because he recognized it from that song.
Featuring a young Katy Perry as the girlfriend, who was also Travie McCoy's real life girlfriend at the time.
Sampled lol they used almost all of it, down to the beats...
@@dewdew34 thats what a sample is...

TWO IMPORTANT SONGS From "The Band's Last Waltz":

Yes! Jamal needs to the Band, in fact all of the youtube reactors need to get more into the Band. Little feat too
I love the Band but I hate "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down".
@@leighfoulkes7297 That's a shame as its one of their best songs and one of Levon Helm's most heart felt deliveries as a vocalist

@@timcardona9962, yes, it really is Leon at his best. I imagine if you don't like that song, it's probably for political reasons, not musical ones.

“Fools Overture”!
Super tramp is like the most famous unknown band ever! Thanks for giving them love!
Please check out Bryan Ferry's "Slave to Love".
Anything from Bryan Ferry’s days with Roxy Music would be good too! Avalon comes to mind right away.
Or "Is your love strong enough" a killer track
@@frednielsen5209
"More Than This", from Avalon, is gorgeous.
Bryan Ferry....what a magically seductive voice, like satin. He also had a solo album that I wore out twice, its that good. Bett Noire
Any Roxy Music or Bryan Ferry. Bryan Ferry was my first live concert!
One of the best songs ever written about the difference between fantasy expectations, and reality.
I'm gonna keep suggesting Kenny Loggins "Heart to Heart." Trust me, it's got everything you want: Michael Mc-D on backing vocals (and co-writer) and SAX!!!
Every song they have written makes you feel like that, kicks you in the feel Goods. Rudy is an amazing song
Talking Heads bro! Gotta be live 1983 concert called "Stop Making Sense". Post it on the other place.
That would be cool.. to react to the entire concert.
Harmony Wisdom Oh yeah, but too long. I would start with “Slippery People” then work through the concert.
Yeah Dude, I was about to suggest Talking Heads!
Ahh good luck with that. Any Talking Heads track will be blocked, copyright tagged & generally blown out of the water instantly.
Cassette Walkman That’s why we put it at the other place.
Thanks for being such a light in this world!
I believe that's a soprano sax he's playing.
thanks Jamal for you message at the end. Your service here is healing & helps people to keep things in perspective. Play on my man.
Listen to "School" it's a masterpiece
It's such an underrated song!
It would be the Crime of the Century if he didn't
Love that track!
Yes! Love that eerie song! What memories!!!!
Yesss !!, You have chosen the best way to present this song, composed by Roger Hodgson. I was there that day in London, at Royal Albert Hall. If you liked listening to it, you can't imagine living it live !!
This was sampled for “Cupid’s Chokehold” by Gym Class Heroes
Love Supertramp!! You should try listening to YES, another great band!
Good reaction.
Let's try Squeeze and "Tempted".
Kelly Stith Great band
I saw Supertramp durring their farwell tour concert in the1980's . their parting words were "A change is for the best as long as it premotes growth"
Child of Vision is the best song on this album.
Mine too. You have great taste Tom! :)
That song is one of my favorites on the album...that and Oh Darling!
Love that one!
Too many good ones for me to pick a favorite, but that is a good song.
Masterpiece
I wore this album out! I love Supertramp, the lyrics, the quality musicians...Amazing.
I really hope you will do a reaction to Greg Kihn Band, "The Breakup Song" .
....buh buh bahhhh buh buh buh buh bahhhh;)!!
Wow....after all this time I didn't know they are an English band. Now listening to the lyrics, after hearing his opening comments....that is gold!
doin GREAT man....check out "Lord, Is It Mine"
from the same album.
'School', .Lord is it mine', 'Even in the quietest moments', 'Its Raining Again' are just a few of the deeper cuts, more likely to be less familiar to the public, but certainly loved by their hardcore fans and worth a listen at any time.
Suggestion: Red Rain and Big Time by Peter Gabriel from the album “So”. (Big Time is especially appropriate in the era of Trump.)
Games without frontiers, Mercy Street
1979....wonderful year wonderful music.
You should react to the Band, "The Weight" from the Last Waltz. Should be doable as there are several reacts to it on youtube already.
This is a great song. I never knew the name of the song until it came onto the radio recently. I saw it on the dashboard of my moms car.
Bloody Well Right is next, right? :-)
That's my favorite Supertramp song!
That would be my choice too, together with "soapbox opera", "easy does it/sister moonshine" and "School".
Quite right!
quite right!
Thank you for reacting to this brother. It brings back a lot of wonderful memories for my bride and I.
Is they keyboardist going for the Kraftwerk look?
Actually 'Neon Lights' by Kraftwerk might be an interesting listen for the channel.
Keep on keeping on :)
"Man Machine" by Kraftwerk.. DaftPunk owes Kraftwerk a huge debt for inspiring their whole career!
Seriously! I’m so glad you pointed that out!!! 😂😂
Ponderous Panda Love Kraftwerk. I believe Florian has recently left us
Soprano sax is like razor blades down your spine. Such an underrated band with the passage of time. Just brilliant. Kia kaha
FYI. That was a clarinet, not a saxophone.
Actually it is a soprano saxophone. A clarinet is a woodwind instrument and is usually black while this one has a metal color.
That is a soprano saxophone, not a clarinet.
The Japan viewer , got it 10 seconds before me
@@japanviewer "A clarinet is a woodwind instrument" so is a soprano sax, just to be clear.
Looks and sounds like a soprano sax to me. Maybe it was a clarinet in the studio version, but not here.
