Prob the greatest balad of all time. Not many people 'get it', unless one has been there. Powerful. Credit where credit is due... This is a song, sung and played, from the soul. Thanks, and you nailed it man
I'm actually excellent with words, and I strive for accuracy and avoid exaggerating. But this song is so good I don't want to try to describe the way it hits me. Memories of 1985 [when I discovered it] lying on the floor in the living room with the stereo loud enough to be heard in the next county. Loved your stories and playing 👍
Beautiful. Best Song ever and your guitarre is so very present. It sounds so much stronger. This is the song women will never understand. Bosten and TruthSurge forever.
When I see Brad Delp sing this song live it brings huge tears to my eyes, such a lost talent . One of the best voices in rock, lost way too soon. RIP BRAD DELP
Me too! I am a big tattooed guy who has tried to fight Godzilla! Afraid of no man but I feel like crying when it comes to anything brad delp!! Such a huge part of my growing up listening to Boston! Good post!
Brad is so very missed Just as my dad, the man who gave me the gift of Boston , is also missed Both brad and my dad took their own lives, brad a few years after my dad Boston has a very very special place in my heart and will forever be one of my fave bands ever Thank you for doing such a great job with this masterpiece
The sound of Boston did it to me also. Back then I was a Marine and used music to get through. Today I'm an old man with both legs gone still trying to just get through. Thanks Brother I "will " get through.
This song is so intense that it is the only song in my collection that brings me to internal emotional breakdown and I can’t figure out why…I’m not sure if it’s the memories that it draws on or some relationships of my past but I can listen to this over and over again and never get tired of hearing it, this could be my favorite of all time, thank you!
I wasted my best years .....decades on a floozy. This song completely expresses the exasperation of trying to understand a woman who didn't have a clue what she wanted other than " worship".
My closest friend Kevin and I wore the groves off this album when we were young. He commented that this was one of his favorite songs. He was killed at age 20 in a motorcycle accident. I'm now 58. Every time I hear this song, the momories of him come back. What a great song and a fantastic cover!
It’s really hard for me to choose a favorite song because so many songs were so great however if I had to choose this would be tied with foreplay/longtime. Great job!!
Damn, I can't stop, His perfection is just to much. I am still in shock. I tried this song, for 20 years. Never got it. He is better than it was presented. The best song ever that has ever been created. #1 No doubt. The hardest to recreate, due to it's perfection.
This is one of the finest covers of any song on TH-cam. You captured both the power and the subtlety of Tom Sholz's brilliant guitar playing on this song. Bravo!
We're all still kids when this music comes on. Whether you're playing it or listening to it, it's a time machine that takes us way back. Good times indeed. Great job on the guitar!!!
I get chills just to watch you demonstrate your awesome talents ! God has touched you in a special way and you have shared those gifts with us. Such skill level that looks like you were born with a guitar in your hands !
No, sorry to report that no deity helped me learn how to play. I am almost entirely self-taught except for a few lessons early on when I was 11. About 2 months of lessons once a week on acoustic guitar then I taught myself everything else. Thanks!
I just now noticed, the disappearing pick. Funny. Very cool. Still, I watch to smile, and relax, every night. I want to do what he does. I played for like 30 years, it's hard man. He nails it. This is the best song that has ever been produced. Scholz is the Master. A God. One of the many.
The G is 2 slices lower than tune. Scholz theme. Do that, and please do this again. I am watching every movement, some are better than the Original. Dude, you are sick with Talent. I am in awe. 63 year old here, played over 40 years, 7 inch disc, nothing more. But what fun. People adore you. As I adore you, and your talent. G - again -2, and then we talk. I need to meet you. Seattle much, it's time. Teach me. I got the ride dude.. No Problem. Bring the family, and let's fucking rock. The Scholz way. I can get him too, but hard at the time. If we all could live forever, we could create perfection of the mind. ( your new song ) Perfection of the mind. Out, for tonight Mad Man with a Pick, damn, you rock.
A real masterpiece of rock music that never will be forgotten ❤. Brad was one of the best rock singers of all times 👏 RIP And Boston is still a great band ❤❤.
+Jeffrey P Yeah, I need one of those for this tune. But I never owned one. I used them when I worked at a music store in the 80s. I really liked the clean sounds. Chorused and stereo.
What's even more amazing is that most of the guitar, bass, and keyboards were performed by Boston founder Tom Scholz himself, although other players were involved sporadically throughout the recordings. He and singer Brad Delp defined what the Boston sound was and still is to that day !
The song itself is a masterpiece. My very favourite Boston tune ever. But watching you play it so consummately, literally sent chills up my spine. Thank you...
I'm 69 years young, when Boston first came out I listened to the radio hits, and their first album was great, but never really heard or listened to much of the second album. Now in retirement I've gotten back into my guitar, and trying to become that guitarist I'll never be. But I found this song on TH-cam, and have gotten completely hooked on it. You brother have inspired me greatly, showing me what I can do with a love for a song, and my guitar. Thank you for such a great video!!
Excellent work One of my all time favorite songs. I met Brad a few months before he passed, a class act till the end. RIP Brad, you will be always be remembered and definitely always be missed.
to Tony Tupelo, since I cannot reply to his comment thanks to some GooTube bullshit programming: thanks! I get pretty close sometimes. I think I have a tendancy to drag a little bit. Maybe it's because I don't rehearse these but a couple times right after I learn them. I used to play in a rock band back around 1983/84 and I knew the songs like the back of my hand and could play them in my sleep left handed so these play-alongs are done mostly after I quickly learn them with hardly 2 run throughs. So there are some mistakes but for the time I invested, they are fun.
You sit inspire to actually Lear to play like my idol David Gilmore his solos speak to me either that or it was the blotter lol thanks for the music great solo man
thx. yeah, it's a great solo. Boston always had good solos because Tom would obviously craft them and learn them and record them instead of just winging them. They have a more... timeless appeal that way, I think. Unless you are just great at ad libbing greatness. ty
@@TruthSurge I heard Boston from the very beginnings - I started college in '74. I'm been entranced by the guitar in this song ever since it came out. You did an awesome job with it. Do you have a Rockman to get the Boston sound?
@@guyrouillier No, I used Guitar Rig 4 or 5. One of those and just rolled my own sound. I do that for all my guitar covers. I rarely use Peavey Revalver but on a few tunes. I also have this free plugin LePoulin that sounds pretty good. I never liked those portable Rockmans. I liked the clean but not the distorted sounds. Something just sounded wrong to me. Maybe the actual amps were better but nah, I just roll my own sounds by turning knobs and listening. I get close enough I guess. thanks!
Great showcase of BOSTON. This is one of my go to songs by BOSTON- Heard it first time before release of Don't look back on King Biscuit Flour Hour WKDF fm radio in Nashville,Tennessee,Brad said her's one off our new outcoming album, fell for it that night⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is absolutely breathtaking. Could never take anything away from Tom Sholtz, but you proved he isn’t the only one who can master that sound. Flawless to say the least...
wow i have been playin for over 55 years 30 years on the road .... im with the guy who said brought tears ,,,, you did a great fnnnnn job to a great tune cheers to you !!!!!! like he said you win !!!! i got to go on... i have been a musician since the age of 4 nothing except for my kids nothing has meant has more ....so .when my wife wanted a divorce i left a cassette tape of this song on the stairs for her with a note i am and will always be the man you wanted i haven't changed so what happened to you........... long story short met the woman of my dreams married 22 yrs she raised my kids who the call mamasan .... amazing the memories from a great tune thanx again JR
Well Brother, you pulled it off, I was a little skeptical before I played it, because this was one of Tom’s best solos ever and you did a remarkable job so blessings to you…!!
I had just gotten done watching another TH-cam video on Boston’s More Than A Feeling Ep.17 of “What Makes This Song Great” Then I saw your video listed and watched when you cover that song Omg!!!!!! Amazing!!!!! Then I watched this video and again OMG!!!!! Amazing !!!!! Who hasn’t played air guitar to all of the Boston songs??? My favorite group of allllll time!!! Thank you for taking the time and sharing your great talent with all of us. Boston should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ...... one of the great travesties that they keep getting passed over ..... I keep praying one of these years while I am still alive! You so do them such a great honor in performing their music is such an extraordinary fashion!!!!! Please do some more of their songs for us!!!
My man. You make all your posts look too easy. I know you've put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into practice and playing, and it's paid off. Seriously. Your humility is a credit to your amazing sound.
Dude this is my favorite song in the world, and you played it so perfect, and with passion, I was feeling every strum and pick, this made my day for sure. Bravo my friend Bravo
Yeah me too truthsurge....the only song in my 62 years of life that revels what I feel. It puts me in another world. Love all of their songs....but this one captures me n the one next to it is undoubtably More Than A Feeling. Its of a certainty played from the heart. Many thanks to the band Boston.
I am always encouraged when I hear excellent musicians who love a song so much they seek to nail it when they play. Congratulations. My favorite rock ballad done to perfection. SALUTE!
My first concert as a 16 year old kid my older cousin took me to see Boston "Live" 1976, they debuted "A Man I'll Never Be" my hair was standing up on my arm all night, needless to say 43 years later still great music, Outstanding job reproducing it
That was the most amazing play along i have ever heard. I have loved Boston's music since they started and you were on the mark. Thanks for choosing this amazing song and posting this. Keep it up.
Holy crap, that sounded excellent! I put good headphones on to listen to it through my iPhone 6s, and you nailed it, bro! I love this solo, it's probably my favorite solo to play from the band, and I can play it exactly like on the album, so I really appreciated that you can also! BTW, nice guitar! I used to own that guitar! And I too used to play nothing but KISS back in the day! And regarding Tom's sound, I bought the Rockman when it came out, and I'm so glad you know about Ty Tabor! Dude, you're my new fav TH-cam guitarist! Right on, man!
I have just got into Boston after 41 years on the planet and this is my favourite song. It is just euphoric and you must good man are the custodian. Bravo
Brother, you are a man of many talents. Your guitar skills, amazing voice, everything...amazing. Nailed this one. Love your Still loving you rendition and Africa as well! 👊👊🎵🎼
thanks!! I try. I just enjoy trying to replicate these old songs I used to like in my younger days. Some I nail, some I do good. Hopefully I never suck! hahah
I remember seeing Boston in Baton Rouge, I can't remember the year ,maybe 91-92. Who cares!!!! I was sooo high!!! They came out and 6 ENCORES!!!!! BADDEST CONCERT EVER!!!!!
Very cool brother. I was in a couple of bands back in the late 70's and early eighties. We had rehearsal space at the Cambridge Music Complex. Several Boston based bands did too. The Cars and across from ours was Boston's. I got to meet the members of the Cars and sit in with them while rehearsing songs for Panorama. I was told that Boston hadn't been at their rehearsal space. It was at the time they where in a battle with the record company and had to reform under different names. I saw Boston at the Boston Gardens in 1979. Sammy Hagar was the opener.
I've never been to Boston. I'm sure it's a cool place. Was Sammy HAgar solo then? I know he was with Ronnie Montrose at some point. Maybe by 79 he was solo. I guess he had to be. By what, 1985 he was with VH?
TruthSurge It was billed as Boston with special guest Sammy Hagar. I wish it was Montrose though. I just found it. It was November 6, 1978. The set list did include Bad Motor Scooter.
Sammy was good on guitar, though. No slouch. But he had a good voice so that's mainly what his thing was. I had that Montrose album with bad motor scooter. It was cool
I am 60 years old, UK based and have been fortunate in life to have seen many of the big name rock bands here and around the world, I can honestly say I have enjoyed your many videos on my iPad and headphones as much as any concert I have been to. Sing along and play along my rocking friend, I can’t help feeling but for circumstances in the ether of time past I would have attended many of your concerts and hailed you legend. Thank you.
How does this have 55K views? people must really be looking this song up.

It should have more! This cover is as close as it gets to the actual song! Great job!

Cocaine is Terrible !!!

Do did it justice Man.
Saw him with Beatlejuice Brad's cover band many times, what a sweet sensitive soul that man had! 😢
Brad is so very missed
Just as my dad, the man who gave me the gift of Boston , is also missed
Both brad and my dad took their own lives, brad a few years after my dad
Boston has a very very special place in my heart and will forever be one of my fave bands ever
Thank you for doing such a great job with this masterpiece
Remember young fella, Old Guys Rule and you owned this one my friend!
Can’t get to sleep. Enjoying in 2024. Insane cover. Spot on. Fun to watch and listen to.
ty!
The sound of Boston did it to me also. Back then I was a Marine and used music to get through. Today I'm an old man with both legs gone still trying to just get through. Thanks Brother I "will " get through.
Thx. Hope you can find some joy in your life. It's not that easy sometimes.
Thank you brother. When I was a teacher of High School Juniors and Seniors we would watch this A Lot before class.
This song is so intense that it is the only song in my collection that brings me to internal emotional breakdown and I can’t figure out why…I’m not sure if it’s the memories that it draws on or some relationships of my past but I can listen to this over and over again and never get tired of hearing it, this could be my favorite of all time, thank you!

One of my favorite bands of all times. Boston is NOT easy to duplicate. Their songs are really quite complicated.
You literally brought tears to my eyes Brother. This is top shelf. You win. You've mastered the craft.
My favorite of all Boston songs, fantastic job man!
It’s really hard for me to choose a favorite song because so many songs were so great however if I had to choose this would be tied with foreplay/longtime. Great job!!
This song is the most underrated song they've ever played in my opinion. Love it.
@@benfranklin3655 fer sure
very good my freind!

A guitar-player like that "I'll never be".
Totally agree 😉 This is so good...
Me either. He did a great job
"After some serious practice" damn right
lol but at least you are honest :)
He is one of the FEW guitar players I've seen who plays with soul. Completely effortless.

Boston was simply amazing for those of us growing up in the 70s and 80s. Well done !
Sublime. One couldn’t climb any higher. Thank you.

From a massive Boston fan since Boston at the start, thank you I loved it, 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🔥🔥🔥😎😎😎👍🏻🍻🍻🍻

No way THAT was absolutely fantastic my friend! Tom Scholz should be proud! You nailed the sound as well as the song.
Goosebumps. My fave

I used to own that guitar! And I too used to play nothing but KISS back in the day! And regarding Tom's sound, I bought the Rockman when it came out, and I'm so glad you know about Ty Tabor! Dude, you're my new fav TH-cam guitarist! Right on, man!
thanks! but this guitar is a homemade one. parts. I have a few King's X tunes on here.
TruthSurge id like to know where and how you get your sound and if you can play walk on
I have just got into Boston after 41 years on the planet and this is my favourite song. It is just euphoric and you must good man are the custodian. Bravo

Dude, you are an inspiration.
wow! Boston should hire you! Great job my friend!

After listening to this, I put Sholz up there with Gilmore as one of the greats. So beautiful, so melodic.
I remember seeing Boston in Baton Rouge, I can't remember the year ,maybe 91-92. Who cares!!!! I was sooo high!!! They came out and 6 ENCORES!!!!! BADDEST CONCERT EVER!!!!!
Except when Mr Edward Van Halen pointed this finger at me in New Orleans!!!!
WOW truly amazing. It gave me goose bumps. Thank you so much for the cover
back again maestro
I'm so jealous right now! Damn, great work bro!
thank ya!
Yep!
Very cool brother. I was in a couple of bands back in the late 70's and early eighties. We had rehearsal space at the Cambridge Music Complex. Several Boston based bands did too. The Cars and across from ours was Boston's. I got to meet the members of the Cars and sit in with them while rehearsing songs for Panorama. I was told that Boston hadn't been at their rehearsal space. It was at the time they where in a battle with the record company and had to reform under different names. I saw Boston at the Boston Gardens in 1979. Sammy Hagar was the opener.
I've never been to Boston. I'm sure it's a cool place. Was Sammy HAgar solo then? I know he was with Ronnie Montrose at some point. Maybe by 79 he was solo. I guess he had to be. By what, 1985 he was with VH?
TruthSurge Sammy was solo. He wore his signature red leather. You're probably right it was around 85.
ok.. I saw some vid on YT where he did bad motor scooter but it was w/o Ronnie. Maybe he was solo then. 79 I think it was. later!
TruthSurge It was billed as Boston with special guest Sammy Hagar. I wish it was Montrose though. I just found it. It was November 6, 1978. The set list did include Bad Motor Scooter.
Sammy was good on guitar, though. No slouch. But he had a good voice so that's mainly what his thing was. I had that Montrose album with bad motor scooter. It was cool
Definitely the best song off this album. And a poignant message, considering Brad's death.
Still watching it regularly especially now we are stuck in UK lockdown. Really love truthsurges' videos. Keep them coming.
Great playing of one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded :-)
Awesome! great playing!
You should Tap into Boston's guitarist Barry Goudreau's work solo and with Orion the Hunter, Great songs there too!
thanks. I did Dreams already. check it out! :)
My wife said "nice quilts"
Very nice, make a new brazil fan !
Obrigado! :)
Stopped by again to see a master play such a great song. Amazing.
I am 60 years old, UK based and have been fortunate in life to have seen many of the big name rock bands here and around the world, I can honestly say I have enjoyed your many videos on my iPad and headphones as much as any concert I have been to. Sing along and play along my rocking friend, I can’t help feeling but for circumstances in the ether of time past I would have attended many of your concerts and hailed you legend. Thank you.
Much better look with your beard trimmed up. 👍
Naaa... The beard rules.
