    Singing in his Dad's band...
    Rockin it:
    And, making it his own!

    I've been down lately ... strange to say this but at the age of 54 I'm feeling more spiritual than I ever have before. I'm a musician, and at the age of 16 I recall hearing this song, playing it in the front room of the family home on my Mum's piano. I searched it up on the ol' Itunes yesterday and gladly rediscovered it, and have played it (along with 'The Walls' and 'Let The Day Begin') possibly over 30 times ... Life is a strange journey ... I now have lived through what Michael mentions in his song - pain, tears, shame and grief etc (not wars thankfully) ... ironically I'm restoring my old bass guitar at the moment that I bought from a friend at the age of 16 ... RIP Michael Been

    When THE CALL first hit the air ways. I was Young, in the Army and away from home. I was in a local place where I went to get a civilian meal..LOL.. This song place on the radio they had on. I right then thought, 'well...finally a real bunch of rock and rollers' ... I have always loved this band. I am so sad the Michael is not with us. I am now an old goat, but I still Believe !

    At age 18, I spoke at my dad's memorial service (he died at 49). My last words in that "Speech" were "It will be a really hard act to follow." I wish I'd done as well as Robert Levon Been has done. I'm still trying fulfill my promise... and I'm pushing 70 now... The first time I saw The Call perform, I was 16.

    No better way to pay tribute to a father than by his son. This band was a bright light during a very hit and miss era of music. So very underrated and overlooked by those that thought the music scene was somewhere else. Critics are clueless, this band is proof. God Bless you Michael, Robert and The Call.

    My God, that was chilling. While not the vocal dynamo that his father was (who is, though?), it's uncanny and somewhat unnerving to basically see and hear a young Michael Been performing alongside The Call again. What a heartbreakingly fantastic tribute to his father - nicely done, Robert!

    Flat on my back
    Out at sea

    I'll march this road
    I'll climb this hill
    Down on my knees if I have to

    Up on this stage
    I'll wait 'til the end of time
    For you like everybody else
    I'm out on my own

    I still believe
    Through the shame
    And through the grief
    Through the heartache
    Through the years
    Through the waiting
    Through the years

Great band, The Call & B.R.M.C. If you haven't seen the concert/docmentary this video was taken from, you are missing out. The Call: Featuring Robert Levon Been of B.R.M.C, A Tribute To Micheal Been.

    If he sounds like his old man is cos he's a chip off the old block. A great delightful tune & justice was done to this song. This has always been a favorite song from the 80's. Especially where a 1977 Buick Regal that was considered something special to me. I supplied the high-performance parts & my mechanic modified the engine for me. I don't think I ever loved a car like that Buick Regal. There's times I think about my 1977 Buick. If I ever went back to the 80's & it was possible. The only way I'd go back, only if my Buick Regal was waiting for me. 1987 was when this song was popular. Another group covered this song for the Movie "The Lost Boys." It still was a great song the way it was done. If the Calls version had been used instead, it would've helped them more with this song. This particular version is a great song. Great job with this one.

    Anyone else still putting on "Let the Day Begin" and the other The Call classics at least once a week in their house? I can't let these songs go, they're just too much a part of me!

    Yes, like father like son.. You know it for sure. Heard it the other day, on Russ Taffs' recording.
    Then became curious as to the original. Found that on U Tube. Then had to listen to the son singing. Awesome. "WE STILL BELIEVE".

    Awesome! I remember seeing The Call when they opened for Simple Minds in '86 I think it was. I met the band back stage, first class all the way. Obviously the fruit didn't fall far from the tree! Great job, Robert! This brought back a lot of great memories!

    • @Meandgenevieve
      @Meandgenevieve 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Simple Minds were pretty ok but The Call must have blown them off the stage!

    Just discovered this... This cut still hits me hard, and Roberts voice still pulls out the original emotion I felt and feel when I hear The Call. Thank you for not forgeting your father's fans and making it your own.

    WOW. So much like your Dad. I saw them live, followed a good bit live late ‘80’s early ‘90’s or so… your Dad was electrifying. The whole band phenomenal. You really nailed this. I am sure he is proud of you.
