It just rocks my world to watch young folks reaction to hearing any Boston song! I was in a Walmart store and I saw this 14 year old kid wearing a Boston T-shirt. I’m 59 years old and said to the young man “you probably don’t even know who Boston is”. He replied “dude, that’s my favorite band” and I was like “dude! Mine too!” It makes my heart sing to see music bringing us together. Especially these days. Keep rockin sister and I’ll keep watching! Blessings
@@MrScorpions999 Bro, I have to listen to that closer. I honestly didn't know. I think Michael Sweet was a good choice to go on the 40th Anniversary being a Christian I've met and on one of the 3 occasions, I had a 30 minutes conversation with him and one other musician. I think he was the right guy at the right time for the rest of them. Michael lost his 1st wife years ago to cancer. The irony is this lifetime southern Californian moved to Boston and remarried and stayed there. Super genuine guy. He really respected Brad for sure and you can hear it in STRYPER's guitar tones and Michael also had a insane range. Thanks for that info Mr Scorpions999. Gone way too soon.
Man, this song s one of THOSE songs that you HAVE to listen to while driving on the Freeway at sunset with the windows down and the volume up high as you go home, trust me, once you hear it and listen to it as I do and said, it will make you nostalgic. That duel guitar solo is epic, huh??
Yep...you are definitely right....blue oyster club-don't fear the reaper is not so....light.but check it out if u wish. in some long boring drive.it'has almost the same vibe...music,not lyrics of course
That 1st Boston album is one of the greatest albums ever made. The whole album is like a Greatest hits list. The whole thing is fire. Try Foreplay/longtime or Smokin.
Peace of Mind is a fantastic song my favorite from the album...still have original copy I bought waaay back in late '76 when I was 12. 2nd album was great to.
@Rob Foam I agree it is the weakest but still good on a very strong album it was the only song written by Brad on the album & the only song recorded professionally in a studio. All the others were recorded in Tom's basement.
Did it again: I posted a comment before scrolling down the comments and found you expressed the same sentiment, John. Music has been getting more simpler and it's sad. I hope the trend reverses because it's hard to imagine it getting even more non-melodic and complex than it is right now. If the trend is left to continue, it might go back to the days of cavemen banging rocks together.
Yes and no and I should know as I listened to this song when came out in'76 and since that time there has been much great music made and still being made. If you like something new that is epic I suggest giving Nightwish a listen as they are an act you can actually see live. The past sounds good because it is familiar and not necessarily better and what is popular today will be forgotten for the most part and what will be remembered will seem better in the future too,and so it goes. Music is a subjective thing and always has been.
I was born in 1955. I kind of agree however i think the 60’s through to the 90’s was a great time for music. So good to see young people discovering it and enjoying it.
I will be 60 end of june 2019. I lived the era. I loved the 80's music as well. I am SOOOO glad you listen to these eras. It REALLY is the best stuff out there. ALL the bands were so diverse from each other. Rock on.
So cool seeing a young lady being able to thoroughly enjoy and appreciate music from this Boston band I grew up with... More than a feeling is one of those songs that still fires me up every time I hear it.😎
I've been listening to this band for 40yrs and they never get old. Timeless music and Brad Delp is BY FAR one of the best vocalist in Rock music TO THIS DAY. RIP Brad, you are very missed. Glad you liked this India. Nice to see that people can actually like hard rock music if they just give it a chance.
I totally agree with your view on Ronnie James Dio, one of A kind, he will also be missed. I also have a deep seated love for Chris Cornell, who also left too soon. Great voices all!
I've got tears listening to this and watching your reaction. So great to see the next generation appreciating this band. Has to be the most underrated rock band in history.
Sadly the singer suffered depression and took his life. You can't hear music from Boston and not feel lifted If you like one song you will like them all.
Boston were phenoms of the 70s and did great things although at a time when rock and roll was somewhat diminished as it was in the heart of the disco era. Not afraid of longer-play songs, their sound was kind of ahead of its time. Very rich and full; sounded like a bunch of folks who were all good at their individual musical disciplines who came together to make wonderful sounds. They weren't prog but sometimes you hear bits of progginess in their music. It's hard to describe this but I bet there are some others out there who will agree. So far, Boston has appeared to have become somewhat timeless and it replays exceptionally well. Play this song, Hitch a Ride, Don't Look Back, Rock and Roll Band, and some others at a party and see what happens. MANY folks will know these. Folks who've never heard will start asking..."Hey, who is this?" Often, they are surprised to hear how long ago this came out.
"sounded like a bunch of folks who were all good at their individual musical disciplines who came together to make wonderful sounds." - There were 2 musicians on the first Boston LP. Tom Sholz played all the guitars and key boards and a lot of the drums. Brad did all the vocals. The rest of the band wasn't formed until after the LP was recorded. There are many stories about the band and Tom and the ensuing legal battles that have followed Tom and the band until a few years ago.
Boston came out of nowhere with a totally new sound unlike anything we had ever heard before. I was in the 10th grade and I wore this album out. This is one of my top 5 songs of all time.
Nothing beats the 70’s music. Boston, Sabbath, Van Halen, Rush , AC/DC, Curtis Mayfield, Earth Wind Fire, Bob Marley. Herbie Hancock. Barry White, James Brown, Elton John, Queen, Maze, ABBA, Isley Brothers. This list is endless. Analog sound era is timeless.
Brad Delp, the singer for Boston was probably one of the most underrated singers. He was definitely the voice of Boston. R.I.P. Brad Delp. Your musuc, and presence are missed by many Boston fans.
You have the cutest reactions. I love seeing the reaction of young people of the music I grew up with. The music that made the radio the most important part of your car. LONG LIVE BOSTON.
What a joy it is for me to watch you react for the first time listening to these classic numbers. You make me smile, laugh, and sometimes cry, because you are 100% real and natural. You are, in a word, wonderful, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart! Don't ever leave!!!
MR BLUE SKY-- ELO MR BLUE SKY--ELO!!!!!!!! start your day with that song.... best uplifting song ever written, please react to it... would love to see your face when you hear it for the first time
This is awesome! Loved seeing your reactions to this, and this is coming from a guy who's heard this song literally thousands of times, and owns an original copy of the LP!
@@dougmcauliffe2253Walk on and Corporate America are pretty much growers instead of instant likes. some of the songs on walk on are good but corperate was all over the place and little focus with multiple vocalist and fillers. the current one life, love & hope suffered the same problem and Tom started to be the George Lucas of music with re-recording two of Corporate America's weakest tracks. the first 3 albums are masterpieces. in case you're interested. one of the guitar player from Boston Barry Goudreau has a solo album with Brad Delp on vocals in 1980. worth checking out. I think Frans Cosmos who sang on walk on album did some vocals on that album as well but I could be wrong.
Boston's first album was one of those rare occasions where every song is a hit. You put it on to listen to one song and you end up letting it play until you've heard them all. Then, you play it again! LOL.
Actually Boston was just one guy who did all the instrumentation he brought in the singer to sing on the songs. The Boston seen in the clips is the touring band
@@HeavyJ713 Tom Scholz is the mastermind behind Boston. All of us 50 something fans who have been there from the beginning know this. The power of his creation speaks for itself no matter who joined him on tour to play live. RIP, Bradley Delp.
They were always one of my, if not THE favorite classic rock band. I always considered the music way ahead of its time. And imagine that Tom Scholz said that when they sent the album to Epic Records they wrote him back and said there was nothing new about this music and were have no interest in publishing it... Finally, when he knew someone on the inside they got them to publish it, and still has the framed rejection letter. lol It was probably one of my favorites because I really love superb vocalists, and Brad Delp is definitely one of the greatest.
This is one of my top favourite songs. His vocals, the drums and guitar. So tragic that he took his own life but I’m glad we have these recordings to remember him.
This is my favorite song ever by my favorite band. It takes me back to a rainy day at a friends house, listening to the rain hit the roof and thinking about a beautiful girl I used to know.
Tom Svholz' lyrics and studfio perfection and Brad Delp's voice are unforgettable. Boston's debut album is one of the best selling albums ever. Groundbreaking, even.
Boston... is awesome! Great reaction! It's an oldie but a goodie! I bet when your grandfather listens to it... it makes him think back over all the good memories. And at that age it all we really can do. I feel it in my soul every time I hear it!
I used to work for Boston. I began working for them in 1976, and left for another job in 1979. A great bunch of guys they were. I began by moving their equipment from Van's, trucks, cars etc. to studios. I'd watch them rehearse at the "Music Complex" on Fresh Pond Parkway in Cambridge, Ma. The main guitar sound they got was from founder, lead guitarist, and just about "Mr. Everything," Tom Scholz. Tommy had an engineering degree from M.I.T. in Cambridge. He played every single instrument on that first record. But he also knew he needed a great lead singer, so that's when lead vocalist Brad Delp joined the group. Sib Hashian on drums, Fran Sheehan on bass, and Barry Goudreau on guitar. That amazing guitar sound that Tom got just perfect for the recordings, came from his enginuity and time at M.I.T. I used to help carry that computer to and from the recording studio. He called it the big "M." And it was enormous and heavy as hell! I liked everyone in that band, but lead vocalist Brad Delp was my favorite one. We just hit it off instantly. Brad was an incredible human being. So kind. An amazingly warm heart. And would do anything for anyone! Sadly, Brad took his own life back in 2007, in Atkinson, N.H. God bless you Brad, and I'm sure that Pamela's still thinking of you.
Wow man,loved that story i hope life is treatin you well and you're happy..wish i was around when it was so easy to get access/work for bands..it's all changed now besta luck sir
@K RC No. That was when I was just a kid. Did some work for the J. Geils Band too back then. But after that I began training in the martial arts, and I've been an instructor for 22 years...
This is definitely one of the Great Musical Compositions that has kept Me Going for 45 years since it was first released, along with YES, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin, Now go crank this up in a vehicle and put all the windows down and take a drive and listen to the whole album. You need to listen to music like this with speakers in a space, or vehicle with some volume, so the Highs have a place to go, and the Bass can be tweaked a bit to get the full power, from these 70's Tunes. Keep The Power Flowing.
Tom Scholz is a MIT graduate and a lot of the chimes an bell sounds are actually guitar and the devices used to create such sounds and he invented these devices and employed in his music, Brad Delp singer took his own life in 2007 it has been said he was one of the best male rock vocalist ever, RIP Brad RIP SIb Hashan.
"I see my MaryAnne walking away....." This song is one of the greatest rock songs in history. In the same category as Stairway to Heaven by Led Zep and Won't Get Fooled Again by The Who.
Brad Delp sang lead and harmonies. That note he carried at the end, he sustained that for almost half a minute, into the fade. Phenomenal. The man with the golden voice.
This is what I grew up on. Glad my dad introduced me to all this great music. Would love to see your reaction to one of my all time favorite songs..TRIUMPH.. LAY IT ON THE LINE.
My favorite song of all time. The effects that music and a special song can have on you. It can make you remember a person or time in your life you haven't thought about for years. It is truly, More than a feeling. Foreplay/Long Time if you have not done it already.
A lot of us who grew up in the 1960s, 1970s and early 1980s listen to "Top 40" stations that played everything - pop, rock, R&B and even a little country. All of us kids - black, white and everything else were exposed to all different kinds of music and developed an appreciation for it. I love R&B and know lots of black folks who love rock. It was a great time for radio and music.
one guy did all of the music. I mean all. Wrote, played, everything. He asked his friend to help him out and sing on his album. Did this whole album in his basement. Biggest debut album of all time. Great one for sure. Reminds me of summer.
It just rocks my world to watch young folks reaction to hearing any Boston song! I was in a Walmart store and I saw this 14 year old kid wearing a Boston T-shirt. I’m 59 years old and said to the young man “you probably don’t even know who Boston is”. He replied “dude, that’s my favorite band” and I was like “dude! Mine too!” It makes my heart sing to see music bringing us together. Especially these days. Keep rockin sister and I’ll keep watching! Blessings

A legend
Wrote a song about his own death. " Hitch a Ride "

Yep...you are definitely right....blue oyster club-don't fear the reaper is not so....light.but check it out if u wish. in some long boring drive.it'has almost the same vibe...music,not lyrics of course
My favorite song of all time...and I'm black. Oh, and since 1976. Gives me chills whenever I hear it. Those guitars...and Brad.
Larry Johnson you been black since 1976? What were you before that?
Mine too & it is amazing a black fellow enjoys it so much I wouldn't have thought but hey I loved Thriller so great music is great music.

Brad Delp has a voice out of this world! One of my very favorite bands in the 70’s!
Who can't love this girl for the pure joy she feels when listening to music and how innocently she interprets the lyrics.
This song was inescapable in its day. Blasting out of muscle cars in high school parking lots constantly.
Yes via 8-track cartridges & Jenson tri-ax speakers lol
I am partially deaf because of blasting this song, and I wouldn't change a thing!
Well walk into just about any pool hall today and you'll hear it within 15 minutes
If the windows on your car didn't vibrate, you needed more speakers.
@@catonthemoon2084 My first player was an Craig underdash cassette in 76.
70's music was epic. More complex and melodic than today's pop music.

Absolutely
Saw a season of The Voice and they made one of those poor bastards sing a Boston song. It was brutal
I agree somewhat because I also think Ronnie James Dio was right up there...

Alan French he had some serious power.
If your Grandpa listens to this, you got one cool Grandpa!
Thank you he is pretty awesome sometimes lmao but always love him ❤️

Remember when it came out!

I've got tears listening to this and watching your reaction. So great to see the next generation appreciating this band. Has to be the most underrated rock band in history.
One of the top rock albums in recorded history...Boston rocks
Sadly the singer suffered depression and took his life. You can't hear music from Boston and not feel lifted If you like one song you will like them all.
I was 15 and this song played on the radio. I immediately went out and bought the album.
It's great to see young people keeping the music alive!
Loved her reaction to Brad Delp’s high notes..
Brad Delp..... One of the greatest vocalist ever!!!
Grossly underrated vocalist.
Amen brother!!!
4:11 She is probably thinking, oh he can't get higher then that.
I'd say: Oh he gets higher than that.
Boston's "More Than A Feeling" is truly a classical rock anthem and it is pure FIRE!!! It will never get old!!!
Brad Delp was such an amazing singer. Such a beautiful voice.
I played this song so loud my neighbour called the cops. When they heard it was this song I was playing they arrested him!
:D
Lol
Please tell me this story is true!
HA!! I love it... If only it were true..
The funniest thing in a long, long time.

One of my all time favorite songs from one of the greatest bands ever-Boston.
Boston were phenoms of the 70s and did great things although at a time when rock and roll was somewhat diminished as it was in the heart of the disco era. Not afraid of longer-play songs, their sound was kind of ahead of its time. Very rich and full; sounded like a bunch of folks who were all good at their individual musical disciplines who came together to make wonderful sounds. They weren't prog but sometimes you hear bits of progginess in their music. It's hard to describe this but I bet there are some others out there who will agree. So far, Boston has appeared to have become somewhat timeless and it replays exceptionally well. Play this song, Hitch a Ride, Don't Look Back, Rock and Roll Band, and some others at a party and see what happens. MANY folks will know these. Folks who've never heard will start asking..."Hey, who is this?" Often, they are surprised to hear how long ago this came out.
"sounded like a bunch of folks who were all good at their individual musical disciplines who came together to make wonderful sounds." - There were 2 musicians on the first Boston LP. Tom Sholz played all the guitars and key boards and a lot of the drums. Brad did all the vocals. The rest of the band wasn't formed until after the LP was recorded. There are many stories about the band and Tom and the ensuing legal battles that have followed Tom and the band until a few years ago.
Boston came out of nowhere with a totally new sound unlike anything we had ever heard before. I was in the 10th grade and I wore this album out. This is one of my top 5 songs of all time.
Nothing beats the 70’s music. Boston, Sabbath, Van Halen, Rush , AC/DC, Curtis Mayfield, Earth Wind Fire, Bob Marley. Herbie Hancock. Barry White, James Brown, Elton John, Queen, Maze, ABBA, Isley Brothers. This list is endless. Analog sound era is timeless.
F Shaw. Dude. What about Floyd! Over 900 weeks on the Billboard 200. Next band up is in the 500’s!!
Michael Croteau didn’t forget Floyd on purpose. My bad. Phenomenal band!
Don't forget about the late 60's, and you can add Prince into your 70's ring of honor!
@@timwilliams8496 Prince was definetely an 80s guy. Sure he did some songs in the 70s but his big success came within the next decade

I like the album and Hendrix's debut album was fantastic as well.
This is one of my top favourite songs. His vocals, the drums and guitar. So tragic that he took his own life but I’m glad we have these recordings to remember him.
This is my favorite song ever by my favorite band. It takes me back to a rainy day at a friends house, listening to the rain hit the roof and thinking about a beautiful girl I used to know.
It is More Than A Feeling, it's an experience!
Mote than a feeling is a classic. One of the most played songs on the radio.
Tom Svholz' lyrics and studfio perfection and Brad Delp's voice are unforgettable. Boston's debut album is one of the best selling albums ever. Groundbreaking, even.
Boston... is awesome! Great reaction! It's an oldie but a goodie! I bet when your grandfather listens to it... it makes him think back over all the good memories. And at that age it all we really can do. I feel it in my soul every time I hear it!
I used to work for Boston.
I began working for them in 1976, and left for another job in 1979. A great bunch of guys they were. I began by moving their equipment from Van's, trucks, cars etc. to studios. I'd watch them rehearse at the "Music Complex" on Fresh Pond Parkway in Cambridge, Ma. The main guitar sound they got was from founder, lead guitarist, and just about "Mr. Everything," Tom Scholz. Tommy had an engineering degree from M.I.T. in Cambridge. He played every single instrument on that first record. But he also knew he needed a great lead singer, so that's when lead vocalist Brad Delp joined the group. Sib Hashian on drums, Fran Sheehan on bass, and Barry Goudreau on guitar. That amazing guitar sound that Tom got just perfect for the recordings, came from his enginuity and time at M.I.T. I used to help carry that computer to and from the recording studio. He called it the big "M." And it was enormous and heavy as hell! I liked everyone in that band, but lead vocalist Brad Delp was my favorite one. We just hit it off instantly. Brad was an incredible human being. So kind. An amazingly warm heart. And would do anything for anyone! Sadly, Brad took his own life back in 2007, in Atkinson, N.H. God bless you Brad, and I'm sure that Pamela's still thinking of you.
Wow man,loved that story i hope life is treatin you well and you're happy..wish i was around when it was so easy to get access/work for bands..it's all changed now besta luck sir
@K RC I wish I had. No, I only worked with them at the Complex in Cambridge...
@K RC No. That was when I was just a kid. Did some work for the J. Geils Band too back then. But after that I began training in the martial arts, and I've been an instructor for 22 years...
@@damotheman4196 Yeah Damien. I just got lucky. I happened to know their lighting crew. I worked for the J. Geils Band also...
Cool - thanks for the memories
Boston...'Don't Look Back'! Changed my life musically when I was 8.
when you listen to this song its hard not to smile its a very uplifting song.
Boston is one of the best bands ever!
#5 top selling rock album all time
This is definitely one of the Great Musical Compositions that has kept Me Going for 45 years since it was first released, along with YES, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin,
Now go crank this up in a vehicle and put all the windows down and take a drive and listen to the whole album. You need to listen to music like this with speakers in a space, or vehicle
with some volume, so the Highs have a place to go, and the Bass can be tweaked a bit to get the full power, from these 70's Tunes. Keep The Power Flowing.
Boston is cool, they are like a rock n roll orchestra!
Tom Scholz is a MIT graduate and a lot of the chimes an bell sounds are actually guitar and the devices used to create such sounds and he invented these devices and employed in his music, Brad Delp singer took his own life in 2007 it has been said he was one of the best male rock vocalist ever, RIP Brad RIP SIb Hashan.
"I see my MaryAnne walking away....." This song is one of the greatest rock songs in history. In the same category as Stairway to Heaven by Led Zep and Won't Get Fooled Again by The Who.
Definitely!
Hells yeah!
Far superior - seriously. Nothing ids better than this.
Oldie but goodie!!!
Great song that takes you back to the 70's ! This band, this album and song still hold strong today, sign of a classic. Thanks for this.
Brad Delp sang lead and harmonies. That note he carried at the end, he sustained that for almost half a minute, into the fade. Phenomenal. The man with the golden voice.
You spoke the truth. "There's only one music, and that is good music" music, and only good music tears down racial divides.
The whole album is amazing and must be heard by every music lover ❤
The first outstanding band to master the new synthesizer effects in the 70's, Boston is.awesome.
This is what I grew up on. Glad my dad introduced me to all this great music. Would love to see your reaction to one of my all time favorite songs..TRIUMPH.. LAY IT ON THE LINE.
Rip Delp 2007 love that More than a feeling Classic
Agreed
thats my top 1 favorite song by them
One of my favorite bands back in the day. Like seeing the younger generation listening and liking what are classics now.
BOSTON!!! Alright, I love their music...all of it.
A great driving song!
ONe of the greatest songs ever made.
My favorite song of all time. The effects that music and a special song can have on you. It can make you remember a person or time in your life you haven't thought about for years. It is truly, More than a feeling. Foreplay/Long Time if you have not done it already.
I grew up in the 70s and the music was awesome!!!!
Saw Boston Live in Ottawa on their first concert tour.
Fantastic as every song was a hit and the whole album was performed!
Love how the last notes of his singing are sustained and Blend into guitar feedback in the fade out. So well produced.
I'm 60 and music is in my every day life. New music and the classics. Fuels my soul 💞
A lot of us who grew up in the 1960s, 1970s and early 1980s listen to "Top 40" stations that played everything - pop, rock, R&B and even a little country. All of us kids - black, white and everything else were exposed to all different kinds of music and developed an appreciation for it. I love R&B and know lots of black folks who love rock. It was a great time for radio and music.
I love seeing the musical revolution of the mind and heart, it's amazing
Girl you gotta clap during the chorus, or hook lol. Saw Boston in concert years before the singer died. Loved it. Was such a fun concert.
This is one of the top songs from my youth, I'm an old lady now and this song still gives me goose bumps.
one guy did all of the music. I mean all. Wrote, played, everything. He asked his friend to help him out and sing on his album. Did this whole album in his basement. Biggest debut album of all time. Great one for sure. Reminds me of summer.
