Lyrics
I'm in love with the girl that I'm talking about,
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without.
I'm in love but I sure picked a bad time ...
To be in love, to be in love.
Well, let her be somebody else's queen,
I don't want to know about it.
There's too many others that know what I mean,
And, that's why I got to live without it.
I'm in love with the girl I'm talking about,
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without.
I'm in love but I feel like I'm wearin' it out,
I'm in love but I must have picked a bad time ...
To be in love, a bad time to be in love,
A bad time to be in love, A bad time to be in love.
All the stories coming back to me,
From my friends and the people that I don't want to see.
The things you say I know just couldn't be true,
At least not until I hear them from you.
'Cause I still love the little girl I'm talking about,
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without.
I'm in love but I feel like I'm wearin' it out,
I'm in love but I must have picked a bad time ...
To be in love, a bad time to be in love,
A bad time to be in love, a bad time to be in love.
You know that I love the little girl I'm talking about,
I'm in love with the girl I can't live without.
I'm in love but I feel like I'm wearin' it out,
I'm in love but I must have picked a bad time ...
To be in love, a bad time to be in love,
A bad time to be in love, a bad time to be in love. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
Mark Farner! What an amazing, underrated Talent! That voice, guitar playing, singer/songwriter FOR THE AGES!
I may be biased, being from Flint, but these guys have been ignored for far too long. Amazing band.
That fuzzy sounding five note scale descent beginning at 2.22 is so unique and effective. He knows the relationship is headed downhill.

For some reason the critics hated this band, but they were seriously talented as this great song shows.
Just ignore them and enjoy the music. They wouldn't know good music if it jump up and bit them in the ass.
I thought that was odd, too. They are really good. I love them.
Right !?!
What did they hate about GRAND FUNK RAILROAD - wtf ?
Bruce Springsteen and the E St. band Out In the Street live
GFR was my favorite band while in high school in the early ‘70’s. I still have and play all of their original albums. Was fortunate enough to have seen them live at the university of Cincinnati 1973.
Great song when you are a teen and going through the ups and downs of romantic pursuits.
Or whenever love decides to rear its beautiful, unpredictable head in your life
Great song regardless of your age.
Or even in your 20's and later!
I'm lucky that I married the girl that I was talking about and the girl that I couldn't live without.
John Reedy me, too! She's my little girl I'm talking about, married 30 years
Bingo!.....44 years!!
We’re you in the USAF in Little Rock?
how much does she weigh now?
You sir, are truly blessed
Grand Funk Railroad was the real deal in the 70's !
Loved all these bands in 70s
I love this song. So many memories
This was the song in my head when my granddaughter was born.
So rhythmically flawless...you can't help but LOVE THIS SONG!
SHO'NUFF!!!
Ditto and Love the name Choice!
Thanks. Angela - Buffalo NY☮️💕🙏
This song reminds me of the summer of the 70ies when I was a teenager and life was so fun with different girlfriends, playing sports and trying to impress the girls. I so miss those days and wish I could go back in time just for one day.
(:
I absolutely LOVE this song!!! Brings back memories.
I graduated HS in 74, I think this came out the following summer, so many memories
I REMEMBER when BAD TIME came out : IT WAS,EVERYWHERE.BAD COMPANY : THE ORIGINAL HAIR BAND.💖💖💖💖💖
I don't know whether I like this song or Some Kinda Wonderful better! They are both fabulous songs!! Now go pawn some stuff!
This song, which I have always loved, reminds me of the girl I fell in love with decades ago. She didn't feel the same way and after two years, she ripped my heart out of my chest. I've had many loves since her, but I still can't get her out of my mind.
Been there, done that! Maryann!
I feel you....been there-- done that...it sucks..
Danny G ... you gotta (always) love yourself more first, then there's no one can put in a position where your heart can be ripped out...jus' saying' ... just call me romantic cynic but nobody is worth goin down that hard for ... well, maybe your mom...been married to the same love for 32 years ... got mad crazy love for her but could walk tomorrow if she should loose the spark for me...oh, well....
by the way...this tune ROCKS!!! always did
wow Danny I had exactly the same thing happen to me...I guess it is pretty common.....there was also a problem with religion namely her parents were both very severe Jehovah Witnesses
Yesterday, all of a sudden I thought about this song, now I can't stop singing it. I love it!
It takes me back to a place and time only this kind of music can, now that was music.
That's definitely sure bud! So many good things go through my memory...
8th grade Marla Daily Peoria, Illinois...
I feel the same way
Yes....I was 20 years old and having the absolute best time.
The last GFR song I liked of them.plus that spring/ summer was a bad time to be in love.
I haven't heard this song since 1974; when i was in Junior High. I forgot it existed.
OH, don’t do that!
Omg... I heard this song today ... it brought back so many great memories of my then husband, who has past away recently.
He had sang this song to me when we first were dating, (I had another boyfriend at the time, nothing serious). But after hearing him sing this to me as, he was pointing to me and looking into my eyes while, singing this song, is all it took... I was hooked on him. ( i was, like "what other boyfriend?")... lol...
He was the one... for me...
And we were married for 35 years before, he went on to a better place.
Another song that's dear to me, that he use to sing to, me is called: "This old heart of mine".
Loved, when he sang that to me too... He use to sing to me all the time in our earlier days... I will always and forever treasure those, many precious memories... 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm sorry that you lost him but so happy that you both loved each other so much!
So moving!
Lost my wife 2001 we were both big fans of this song, it moved us equally through our time together. Be well
Lets me visit those better days of the 70s.❤❤❤
This is why it's worth your time on youtube. You will never hear something like this on America's Got Talent.
WONDERFUL SONG FROM A WONDERFUL BAND - HAIL HAIL GRAND FUNK RAILROAD !
Loved the 70's listening to GFR at the roller skating rink and thinking this song was singing my life. Crying while skating, yea it's a real thing LOL Grand Funk for LIFE!!!
Every song by Grand Funk Railroad by far this song is one of the best from 1975
น้าค่อมร้องเพลงนี้คับ R I P น้าค่อมชวนชื่นคับ
Probably the most underrated Band of the 70's!! They sold out stadiums faster than the Beatles.
+Larry Borders yeah,right
+Larry Borders Sorry, but selling out stadiums is no reason for anyone with taste to rate them favorably. I love them, but that would be the case if they'd never risen above playing bars and supermarket openings. Hanson sold out arenas if you want to make it about a band's popularity. ABBA, too.
@@dantean You come across like an arrogant elitist and you're probably a sweetheart...ticket sales are definitely a function of an act's talent. MMMMWHAAAA!
"Maybe".! They Were Definitely One of The Best of the Best; "of Their/The Time(s)' The Hide sight is always 20/20..."" 'THEY ALSO DEFINITELY DEFINED THE "TIMES' "...!!!
Great song i grew up with but they shouldn't be in the same sentence with the Beatles! The best group of all-time!
How could anyone not love GFR, Fantastic Band!
#1 requested song in 1974 but didn’t hit #1 on pop charts. 🤷🏼♀️
Awesome song! I love Mark Farner’s voice❤️❤️❤️
A great song. The melody really pulls you in.
78rlb That's cause its produced by Jimmy Ioner!
There from my home town. Good song great memories 😌
1973 was a great time to live in flint
FLINT MICHIGAN has history!
When Flint was a good place and had clean water.
I met Craig Frost my freshman year when he came to our house to buy our refrigerator.
WHAT an amazing, timeless, Heartbreaking Song for The Ages! STILL GIVES ME THE CHILLS.After 50 Years; STILL MAKES ME WANNA Cry OUT MY HEART!
The guitar riff that continues after the solo really squalls (distortion), leaps to a peak, and then heads down....relationships are the same way when you're all in.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG 🎵 ❤️
มาฟัง..เพราะคิดถึงน้าค้อมผู้ร่วงลับครับ😭😭
I taped this song on my old cassette player from a local FM radio channel back in 1975 and played it over and over! I love this song and will always love it because It brings back memories of my first love! Unfortunately, It was a "Bad Time" to be in love because all the stories where true!
I remember hearing this song on the radio as a kid, in 5th grade I had a crush on this girl. I'd always think of her when I heard this song. Times were much simpler in the 70's😃
37 years ago I still love her and protect her with my life
A fantastic song on a beautiful September morning
😢bittersweet love the 70’s reminds me of high school and that elusive boy…..
What an awesome tune by the band from Flint MI. One of their best 👌!
Great sounds, love the 70s, try to copy this band, no chance, one of a kind, maybe the goat.
I met this guy, Terry, he is no longer with us @ 43, I can't believe he brought me this wicked jam that day, lol, I was rockin, laughing asking how did u know! Lol, From San Francisco and born in 68, he just smiled at my enjoyment, guess I was a cheap lol date1
love this song because it will lift up your spirit
All it did was make me cry but I love the song
🥰
Yes, because back then generations had what it took when it came to living the good life. It was the best time to be a teenager or just to be around living in the best era's.
I can remember the days when everybody was saying Grand Funk was a bad band. But they sold out Shea Stadium faster than the Beatles. Now don't get me wrong I like the Beatles. But I think Grand Funk was one of the most underrated rock and roll bands of all times. They were actually a one hell of a band. They were actually my first concert in 1974 and I still enjoy hearing their music today. So rock on
GFR....the absolute MOST under rated/appreciated band in the history of modern music.,Can i get a witness!?
Yep!
Yup, Some Kind of Wonderful, is yet another Grand Funk classic for the ages!
Does anybody here remember when Grand Funk Railroad used to be a hard rock band? Now they make love songs. Talk about a 360. Or is it a 180 in any case they changed in a big way. I was looking at there earlier videos I'm getting down with it and then my buddy said check this out this is what they were singing I'm like damn that's the same band that's incredible.
Mark Farner... one of thee greatest voices in Rock music thats ever been. Checkout GFR live performance of...Inside looking out 1969 ...a real blowaway...
I Love this Song! Reminds me of 7th &8th grade. Our school dance. And my first puppy Love Guy! Bruce Zimmerman💗 what memories .
Love, love this song!! Great memories.
The beginning of this song has few rivals as a love song with feeling.
3 minutes of pop perfection
1975 ... I have Always LOVED this song. I remember when it first came out I did not realize it was Grand Funk because it was so much softer than the rest of their stuff. Oh the memories and times I so badly miss
Its such a beautiful song and performance. Grand Funk Railroad were so incredibly good with everything they did. As someone else said here, Mark Farner was and is an amazing talent and we love you.♥
Saw the original band 15 times. And ten without Mark..Too bad they don't talk anymore.
OMG is this the coolest song ever I'm dedicating this song to my woman but it's always a great time to be in love with her LOL
Wow! I remember this song but don't remember him singing it. It must have been when he left the band. Somebody tell why they aren't in the HOF.
22 seconds of classical music overtones blended in with rock and roll...who could ask for anything more?
I agree... Hit me up again for another spin!
There's something so beautiful about the key this song is in, and the bass and piano - always loved it.
A Very Good Song and Video. I think the 60'and the 70's, was a much Better time, to have lived in.
I agree with you. much better songs in the 70's and they had meaning to them.
+56bluegold For me, it was a much better time to have lived in. If you were in Vietnam, or a minority, or in any other way not mainstream, not so good. But Joe the Plumber could make a living, afford a house, get a muscle car and gas it up, and even send his kids to college, an opportunity he probably never had.
Sad...but true..
The 60 and the 70 the best.. My brother Danny Peil out of Milwaukee, WI, had a couple of groups, The Corporation, The Apollo, The Tigers, How I miss him and his beautiful voice. She calls me baby baby all night long.😇 His Sister, Connie Jopek in Michigan. Much love to the good old days. 😘😘😘😘
I am in love with this song😘
I love this song and think back to the first time it played on bandstand.
A Time when Grand funk railroad became more pop then rock but this is one of my favorite songs when I was a young teen. Great tune!!!
Agreed
*Man the memories....holy crap!*
I love this gem ❤️❤️❤️. Way to go fellas!!!
THE lead guitar MAKES you WANNA JUST LEAVE. THIS EARTH, and Love LIFE in another Dimension!
When music was MUSIC!
Excellent tune very rarely heard on todays radio
Will always touch ❤️S👍
No arguments there
So underrated! This is so damn beautiful.
I haven't heard this song in years but it still sounds amazing, and I'm loving this lovely video it fits the song so well 🥰👍
It's 1977, I'm parked on a long dark driveway in my 67 chevy2 Nova with my girlfriend, making out and all that sweet sweet love .... Heaven.
I was walking through a Sam's Club yesterday when this Grand Funk Railroad song comes on over the PA system. Mind officially blown!
I was 11 years old. This song reminds me of very first crush. He never looked my way. Fond memories
I wish I could find Mary Jackson, she was at Muirlands Jr High, La Jolla, CA , 1974-1975 This song reminds me so much of her. ❤️
Reminds me of dealing with early sobriety and meeting a sweet girl but I knew with my state of mind and place in life it was a bad time to be falling in love.
Straight up kick ass band.
Had a crush on an older girl when this song came out......sure picked a bad time.....lol thanks for posting
Fresh out of high school, the summer of '75. No money, no future plans, no responsibilities. Haven't been that free since then.
Bring one back to the amazing endless summer days of young love and heartaches, but we lived learned and loved.
just a great song all around
I'm in love with southern voices from ladies only 😎
I always loved Grand Funk, and this is a beautiful video!
I gotta' admit that even though the actual storyline of this song is nothing short of a big bummer, the tune is FAN-FREAKIN-TABULOUS...I've always liked it!!! What you did with this video is really lovely! Well done, LoveLeigh1964!!!
Another great old Rock song.
Hearing this song reminds me of a crush I had on a girl.
Do you remember having "butterflies" in your stomach ?
I wonder how her life has turned out, did her dreams come true ?
Hey Joe ! I've made it to 59 years of age so far ! 1974 seems light years away.Take care...
It's weird getting old .
F Joe he don't know
How her life turned out? Most likely, she got fat, had some kids, is divorced (maybe more than once) and is a nasty old hag who is bitter towards men who she blames for all that has gone wrong in her life.
I was 19 years old in 1974. I hear you Italo D. Girls feel the same way about long ago boyfriends. I have come across a few of them from back in the day - makes me glad I picked my husband. We were married in 1981.
Elaine, congrats on your marriage ! I married my angel on Earth in 1983.....
What a frigin Classic !
What a cool groove!
I love this song, but I love my brothers voice more!! Danny Peil from Milwaukee Wisconsin. She calls me baby baby all night long.. Love to all, Sister Connie 😘😘😘😘
Beautiful song 🎵 I grew in the 1970s
Grand Funk Railroad,
you're 100 percent right!
Love this song so much. They had a great sound!
What a feel good song you want to sing along with.
i will never ever lose my love for these guys, they made more hits than they ever got credit for, but oh well that does not make me love them any less, keep on jamming, mark and rare earth!!!
Take a look at the video of Grand Funk Railroad in 1969 what is it . Inside looking out .That's what Grand Funk used to be.
Yea, I hear you but when a band turns it around and sings love classics, it just shows one their adaptability to do multiple things and do them outstandingly! Such talent in Grand Funk! It’s truly a shame that they are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, yet!
I love GFR and this song is my favorite. Yes, talent was this band for sure. Great memories.
I'm a 70's music lover and I dont remember this tune at all. This song is wonderful! I hste that I just discovered it and the band 😒 However, I saved it on my music channel so that i can hear it all the time! It lifts my spirits when I'm a little down in the dumps! 😊
Great 70's song!
This song was running through my mind and I couldn’t place who the artists were or the title. I found this by searching the lyrics here on YT. Thank you for posting this, love it!
During their last significant tour, Guns 'N Roses in '92 regularly led into Sweet Child O' Mine with Axl belting out the opening lines to Bad Time. It was such an unexpected but powerful homage to this deeply affecting tune.
Mary Begley....you were at Muirlands Jr High school 1974-1975, La Jolla CA 1974-1975, you were friends with Mary Jackson, I thought so much of her with this song
Grand funk always have 👍 songs 🎵
A great band with some great songs
after 1966..still n love..with linda lamie..4-18-22
I played this today 😊 for a young man at my restaurant that had a picture of him and his therapist due to a grand mal seizure he's almost non verbal, came in with his mom and grandma. Kept saying I'm in love pointing to her !! So sweet!!
