The students in my area were singing this at a house party (before lockdown) with excessive emphasis on "Maurice" and the "wo wo" guitar noise. I'm so glad it's a timeless track.
Mr. Hale, I'm SO glad you were my 6th grade teacher at Woodworth in Dearborn in 1973. We went on a filed trip to The Henry Ford Estate. He had one of those big boat 70's cars. I was piled in with 5 other students. We all wanted to listen to WRIF. This song in particular. Thank you for indulging us! This song never gets old and makes me smile remembering times past.
This song reminds me of my Mom her favorite song growing up, she had cancer later in life and this song was something we made memories with! I miss you momma I share the tree for you my angel in heaven! ❤
Happy 50th anniversary to this great lively song! It was released this time in 1974! It’s the day after new years 2024 as I post my comment. This song made the top ten songs of 1974, together with “Bennie and the jets”(Elton John), Grand Funks cover version of Loco Motion, and “Sweet Home Alabama,” by Lynyrd skynyrd of course. May this song live on for another 50 years!!!
This was one of my dad's favorite songs when i was growing up. After getting older and having a family of my own I'd like to say I've picked up the tradition. Love and miss you pops
Since I started listening to this song 🎵 I've listened to it more than 30times just in a few hours and am still loving it more and more beautiful 🎵 song.
When I was little, we used to have barbecues out in the backyard. When my dad was on the grill, he'd have the radio next to him and this song would play about once every half hour because he couldn't stop listening to it. I remember so many summer afternoons or evenings sitting out in the lawn having burgers or just chilling with this song on the radio. Good times, good times.
one of the best memories with this song. my CD collection gotten stolen. had to go to the record store at 930 at night with only a few people in the store and picked this one back up. my friend and I went out to the car I turned my system up in the parking lot of Rasputin and blasted it and my friend and I danced in the parking lot singing this song. the last few people that were in the store walked out and came and started dancing with us telling us they loved this song. one of my absolutely all time favorites. Steve Miller rock on!
Nope. I had a hunch but never confirmed. I'm over it now. It's been years. I just know not to have a modified car it only causes attraction. I had a kick ass collection though. EVERYTHING was in that collection.
Being at teen early 20s in the 70s would be awesome. Just smoking, chilling with friends listening to great music. All I can do is be happy for the people that lived it!
This song is so nostalgic. As a child growing up this song always managed to play over my Disney and r&b, rap, pop, and princess music lol. A true love tbh and today at work it was playing on the radio ❤️❤️❤️
I do have appreciation for all music including the ones you say “isn’t about music or talent” but music like this really does make me happy, makes me think that all the messiness of life doesn’t matter. Idk I just think recently I have really gained appreciation for this kind of music :)
Growing up as a kid/teen in the 70s n 80s the music was awesome n it was everything. Nothing like it before or since!! But clean lyrics..it was not!!! 🙂
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-guitarist-harmonica player Steve Miller, bassist Gerald Johnson, drummer John King, and organist-clavinetist Dick Thompson.
I will be taking my oldest son and future daughter in laws engagement photos outdoors today, and I plan on having this song playing in the background! I want to capture real and fun smiles with this song playing! This song will keep the photo session non stressful but a fun experience! 🥰
Why oh why wasn't I born in the 60's, 70's?! :) Magical time to be alive I imagine.. 💕✌ I have loved this song.. since I was a kid. I love the way the guitar sings Stoner central?
I absolutely Love this song! Totally brings me back to high school pottety class... We had XM radio and this song came on all the time and Mr. Webster always got into it. Classic.
❤ I swear this is a song that everyone that has ever heard it, when they hear it again go back to some happy memory somewhere...... it's just amazing ❤ I love this song, it makes me happy❤
This song would always play at the restaurant i was a cook at. Something about this song always kept me motivated during the very draining nights chopping vegetables and making burgers
love this song. I was a 18 years old kid just migrated to the usa from jamaica where reggae music was my love and passion. but this song the joker, good times charlie got the the blues. the streak have always made me listen happily. hit me with music as bob marley said
Fun fact. Pompitous or Pompatus is not a word. It was misheard when this song was being written. It was heard from the Medallions song 'The letter' What was really heard was 'The puppetutes of love' Puppetutes being a cross between Puppets and Prostitutes.
My father was a well known guitar player in his area When he was here and this was the song my dad played on his guitar all the time around campfires with tons of friends and family anyone was welcome. And he sounded so similar this song always takes me back to when I was by the fire with all my family cause friends are family were he was from.
Let me tell you, 8-tracks kinda sucked. It wasn't just that the tapes were huge and 10 of them would fill any glove box, but everyone I knew had to do the same thing I did; you had to tear off and fold over a matchbook cover and stuff it in the deck next to the tape to keep it from dragging and stuttering.

2023 and still jamming and blaring me some steve Miller listened to this today as a matter of fact on the way to work..70s chick all way rock on
Since I started listening to this song 🎵 I've listened to it more than 30times just in a few hours and am still loving it more and more beautiful 🎵 song.
If you've only listened to this song thirty times in a few hours, you don't like the song as much as the rest of us
I love the 70s and 80s. It will never be the same.
Honestly tho 😢
When I was little, we used to have barbecues out in the backyard.

HAHAHAHAH i dont have a dad
Damn that’s sad dude
The name of the song please.

Damn that sucks .. Did you ever find out who stole your music collection?
Nope. I had a hunch but never confirmed. I'm over it now. It's been years. I just know not to have a modified car it only causes attraction. I had a kick ass collection though. EVERYTHING was in that collection.
Sfll
That sounds like fun - you had me at the dancing part Genai:) cheers to u, m
Sweet story , except the collection being stolen part.
So Joker was singing a japanese version of this song in s2ep12 of fire force
Yea lmao
@Odale Watson same
@Odale Watson lol just watched that scene and i was like wait a minute. that sounds familiar
I wanna in japanese subtitles of music
I came from the manga ch 128
This reminds me of when I was little and everything was simple and happier
Geroge Straight
The happiness is still there, you've just lost yourself gazing at the past. Life's too short to look back
Be grateful and be patient. Life is a test. There is no god but Allah. Hereafter is better than this worldly life.
Adrienne vs. Vs.vs hahaha
AMEN, sister!!!
If you've never blasted this song at 2am after a bad day while laying on the hood of your car out in a field somewhere, are you living life?
Been there done that...:)
Ok
0:17 with your top down
If you have never bungee jumped off the Burj Khalifa wearing nothing but flip flops and a snorkel, are you living life?
Hell yeah been there
Being at teen early 20s in the 70s would be awesome. Just smoking, chilling with friends listening to great music. All I can do is be happy for the people that lived it!
David Rosas lmao u can do that now 😂😂
Yeah and with better weed and access to high quality entertainment and high quality sound and speakers
Not really everyone’s distracted with phones and other shit that wasn’t invented back then. Back then shit was simple is what he’s trying to say
David Rosas lol back when they could afford to go see bands
Gabe Rodriguez weed is better now.
This song is so nostalgic. As a child growing up this song always managed to play over my Disney and r&b, rap, pop, and princess music lol. A true love tbh and today at work it was playing on the radio ❤️❤️❤️
what the hell is wrong with you
me?
no max contreras
+Blake Chaney don't even worry about it, obviously it's an immature 7 year old bossing behind the screen. Lol 😊
I remembered this song at the age of 6 and would sing this song to all my uncles friends while they were drinking. I’ve never failed to disappoint.
One of the best nights ever! Watch them live at Red Rock in CO, danced the entire night. Legends!!!
This song should have WAY more views and WAY more likes. It is a really a good song and in my heart I think it deserves more.:(
i agree
i agree
+Dodie Smoke Im just speaking the truth:D
Great song! Brings back great memories of when life was carefree😊
Anyone still listening to this in 2024?
I am 😊
Hell yeah!!
May 2024
Yes always for ever💯💯💯💯💯

This song is in the deepest depths of my memory and I'm glad I found it again
This takes me back to when I was little, listening to my brothers sing this while playing guitar. God, I haven’t heard this in over a decade.
things changing fast,, we all need to repent. #JESUS
Thank you That 70's Show, you made me find an awesome song
that show is so good for finding gems
I love this song, reminds me of when I was young.. Feels like a whole different life time ago😕 memories are forever though😉!!
Me: Listening to this in 2020 because it reminds me of my good times playing guitar hero
I have loved this song.. since I was a kid. I love the way the guitar sings
This song brings you back
I’m only 16 and this song I hate to admit it reminds me of my dad who passed 4 years ago to heart disease. Think about him literally every day. ❤️
I saw Steve Miller in 1976 at the Omni in Atlanta. Great times remembering those days.
@@matthewpavelka4905 it really does
TWootwoooow 😅

Me too.
I really love your peaches wanna smoke some tree
Had to check out this song after NYT games.. 😅

This song has been dedicated to the memory of Heath Ledger, the coolest Joker the world has ever seen. R.I.P.
Well he's one of the three best. The other two are Mark Hamill and Jack Nicholson
Sorry, I only got here because of fire force latest episode 😅, it is a good song though
Why are you sorry? Nice to know pop culture makes us remember past greatness. Somebody should re-do this song, it's sexy
Doesnt matter where we come from the song is a banger
But you got here! ✌
Same
I've heard it before that but that's what brought me here now 😂
I love this song and I'll be shocked if it's not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
Back when musicians were actual recording artists, kept the lyrics clean and it was about the music and talent.
I do have appreciation for all music including the ones you say “isn’t about music or talent” but music like this really does make me happy, makes me think that all the messiness of life doesn’t matter. Idk I just think recently I have really gained appreciation for this kind of music :)
Psychedelics brought out the real talent
Dont do drugs, unless you wanna make a good song
Ain't gonna lie loved 70s n 80s music..nothing like it before or since. Bu sorry, clean it wasn't!! 🙂
Growing up as a kid/teen in the 70s n 80s the music was awesome n it was everything. Nothing like it before or since!! But clean lyrics..it was not!!! 🙂

love this song. I was a 18 years old kid just migrated to the usa from jamaica where reggae music was my love and passion. but this song the joker, good times charlie got the the blues. the streak have always made me listen happily. hit me with music as bob marley said
Heard this at the store so I looked it up. I'm not disappointed.
Fun fact. Pompitous or Pompatus is not a word. It was misheard when this song was being written. It was heard from the Medallions song 'The letter' What was really heard was 'The puppetutes of love' Puppetutes being a cross between Puppets and Prostitutes.
Thats probably 'prophetess'
awesome! I love this song. ❤❤❤
The chorus on this song is the perfect definition of easy living without a care!
I love it. Hear a little sublime in there which is one of the goats.
Wow I always thought the same
I used to take my pops to anger management and he'd walk around the building saying he was a joker and a midnight toker
I love this song
My father was a well known guitar player in his area When he was here and this was the song my dad played on his guitar all the time around campfires with tons of friends and family anyone was welcome. And he sounded so similar this song always takes me back to when I was by the fire with all my family cause friends are family were he was from.
This song will never get old ;3
Ugh I would love to live in the 70's
John Kittz yesss
Who wouldn't?
John Kittz but then you don't have easy access to this song
rhw 8-track*
Let me tell you, 8-tracks kinda sucked. It wasn't just that the tapes were huge and 10 of them would fill any glove box, but everyone I knew had to do the same thing I did; you had to tear off and fold over a matchbook cover and stuff it in the deck next to the tape to keep it from dragging and stuttering.

Jessie Drury that's genius and underrated stuff huh?
Great memories of all them parties .
Can’t help but come to this song when I smoke. Always comes to mind since I heard it 13 years ago lol. Such a great chill and be merry song.
