This song is timeless. If you don't feel something from listening to it, you're already dust.
Best comment on this song ever! Absolutely on target!
Amen brother lol
i love the Song like 1977. (yes im old)
Guitarist Kerry Livgren was just doing a finger picking exercise when his wife told him the song was beautiful. He said it was just an exercise. He never thought the band would go for it. Well, here we are.
The band was almost finished recording the album but they felt they needed one more song and Kerry said well I have this little excercise I’ve been playing with, and the Kansas magic dust was sprinkled on it and the rest is music history
@@truckrboat I watched and interview with Kerry Livgren and he said he used this as a warm-up before they played and his bandmates asked about it and said we think there is a Kansas song in there.
that is how he opens this song in concert
A beautiful masterpiece…
I felt, and feel the way you felt…
AC/DC's Thunderstruck started the same way. Sometimes those finger-exercises makes for memorable riffs/licks!
You’ve gotta keep in mind that this song was a HUGE hit right in the middle of The Bee Gees/Saturday Night Fever/disco era. And it still resonated with people.
It’s that powerful and universal
When you have a master violin player in your rock band, you know you ain't dealing with an ordinary band.....you're dealing with greatness!.....and Robby Steinhardt's solos fit so perfectly into the cadence of this masterpiece song!
Have a listen to Hawkwind's Hassan I Sahba.
Kansas had the talent to open the floodgates of emotions in everybody. I'm almost 63 years old, and still get chills when I hear them! 🥰
I’m 63 as well and totally agree
In 1993, I got to see Kansas twice in the same summer for free. One was at our state fair & the other was an all-day, all-evening concert series sponsored by a local radio station. We were lucky because the '93 line-up was only missing one of the original members, but the rest were there. Till this day, with 40+ concerts under my belt and my daughter having seen around 20, we still both agree that Kansas is the best live band we've ever seen.
Never been this early before but this is 100% one of the best songs ever written. I want this at my funeral
Yeah me to.😎
Already requested also.
I want "Hocus Pocus" by Focus.😊
You and me both.
I would like "Another one bites the dust" at my funeral. Love Queen :)
Truly one of the most beautiful songs ever put to paper... You don't hear much like this nowadays.
This song is my absolute favorite of all time
When I think of the term "classic rock", and what it means to me, I think of two songs. This one and Boston's "More Than a Feeling"
Now you're ready to react to The Wall, Hold On, No One Together, The Point of Know Return, Song For America, Portrait(He Knew), What's on my Mind, Play the Game Tonight, Can I Tell You, the list is nearly endless!!!!!
The Violinist and co-lead singer Robby Steinhardt’s dad, Milton Steinhardt, was the director of music history at the University of Kansas. Robby started violin lessons at age eight and was classically trained. When his family traveled to Europe while Robby was just growing up, he played with some of the orchestras while there.
R.i.p. Robbie Steinhart. I got see Kansas in concert, Robbie was amazing. You are gone, but your music lives on.
Thanks for sharing that insightful story.
Robbie was actually adopted, so it was his step-father.
@@rusty9129 Incredible bands usually have even more compelling back stories. This ranks among them. Thanks for sharing.
@@rusty9129 Yes he was adopted. I had that in my post but tried to shorten it a bit. Regardless, parents who adopt children are not “step parents”. They are THE parents.
This is arguably the prettiest, most real song ever written. The fact that it is so beautifully performed is just pure perfection! Very euphoric!
☁️😇☁️
The violin 🎻 solo is awesome
"I was told: 'You're just ashes & dust.' They forgot to tell me it was STARDUST."
- Hubert Reeves, astrophysicist.
YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE!
You beat me to it. I could not get into the messages quickly enough yo see if it was here. 😅
LOL
Got a fuckin dart in your neck! You're crazy, I like you. Bwaah
Ha
WE’RE GOING STREAKING
Lyrics you say?.... heh heh The lyrics to every single song on their first two albums are freaking poetry. Unbelievably thought provoking. Gorgeous stories even.
HE KNEW
CLOSET CHRONICLES
Kansas was a great band from the 70's. Their musical style is a fusion of hard rock, southern rock & progressive rock. "Carry On Wayward Son" & "Dust In The Wind" are their 2 biggest hits. But they had other good songs such as "Point Of Know Return", "Hold On", "People Of The South Wind", "Play The Game Tonight", "Fight Fire With Fire", "All I Wanted" etc.
"Miracles Out of Nowhere", 'The Wall", "Song For America"
Magnum opus, journey form Mariabronn are jems too
People Of The South Wind is one of my favorites
Yeah, Kansas to me are those two songs. Never really heard any others from them. None of those you mention ring a bell at all. They might be good too, I don't know myself.
"Can I Tell You" is one of my faves from Kansas. Other songs that hit the top 30 include "Play The Game Tonight", "People Of The South Wind", "All I Wanted" and "Point Of Know Return". A very versatile group Aileen.😁
This song seamlessly combines mourning for the past lost, imploring not to waste the fleeting present, and warning that the future is never certain.
2004 in Iraq getting back to the patrol base after 14 to 16 hours on operations and recovery, I would put my Kansas CD in the player and just try to chill for a moment. Then go out and do it all over again
Thank you for your service.
Indeed . And I am glad you had a decompress vent - must be so hard to find in such a situation
Thnx you
Beyond the harmonies, tonal qualities, and rhythmic grace of this masterpiece, remember that without this classic piece of progressive rock Bill and Ted might not have been able to convince Socrates to go with them on their excellent adventure. A timeless classic.
Dust, wind, dude.
@leemiracle6840 Yes! Like sands of the hourglass, so are the days of our lives!
There was nothing like a Kansas concert in the 1970’s to give me a case of musical whiplash.
Saw them at a state fair in 2000, They started by shouting "Hello Missouri, welcome to Kansas!" They were absolutely stunningly good! Daytime, playin to the bleachers....fantastic
A song about the impermanence of life, living on in history forever. Beautiful
It was the perfect song for when they did the flashbacks on the Highlander tv show
Such a timeless song!
Your beautiful smile and such well spoken reviews are simply wonderful. Love this song. (You should be on your own television show)! ❤️
I don't care what anybody says, but that's the best violin solo in the history of Rock music. It should have its own wing in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
There's a reason this song is used in scenes where there's a loss or death in movies and even tv shows. It packs an emotional punch.
I'm kind of surprised it's never been used in a Superman film. When he loses his adoptive (Kansas) parents.
This song always makes me think of my late grandmother, always telling me not to cry for her passing but celebrate her life ❤
Possibly my most favorite song of all time. Not only are the instruments so simple and elegant, but the lyrics as well. They hit so hard.
If ever there was a song that really is the true meaning of life, it's this one!
what a hauntingly beautiful song
Loved the reaction.❤️ I had the great fortune to meet and spend some time with the guitarist and song writer Kerry Livgren many years ago. He is an amazing musician and composer. He took me out for dinner and then touredhishome studio. A very kind and generous man. I treasure my time with him. Kansas is a deep well of prog rock gold. Dive in and I’ll be right here with you.❤️👍🎸🎶🇨🇦😊
Kerry Livgren lead guitar wrote this and Carry on wayward son. He became a Christian and in the 80s formed the group A.D. The debut album had multiple vocalyst including Ronnie James Dio. That album deserves a listen!
It’s a good song to get high to and reflect, remember back when this came out a lot of the bands would make certain kind of folk music you could trip to, and this is one of them
I've grown up listening to that song and every year the lyrics get truer and truer. I can't even listen to it now without crying because of the raw, naked truth of it all.
This is a beautiful touching song I was one of the people who recommended this song thank you for reacting to it
I remember my mother coming home with the album when I was 7 or 8. This was pretty much the first song that I really remember as a child. Now it just reminds me of her and the old farm. Amazing how a song can bring back memories fresh from almost 50 years ago.
The Lightning's Hand, Bring it Back from Mexico, Miracles Out of Nowhere... So many.
As I'm approaching 70 years old, this song and Pink Floyd's song "Time" hits closer to home. So, now I don’t waste my time not living but try to make a difference in others lives.
this song holds so much emotion and memory for me.
THis and "WHo Wants to Live Forever" from Queen.
To Me the Song is very Somber and Humble as We face our own Mortality and It Matters the Legacy We Leave Behind When We Leave this World.😊😊😊
This is arguably Kansas's most well-known song-even more popular than "Wayward Son".
"Song for America". Another classic from Kansas
This song will always be magical.
So many great Bands from the 70's-80's... LOVE the reaction and your smile is the cherry on top!
Boston, Eagles, Bad Company and many others have had such an impact on our culture beyond believed thought.
Keep turning out the videos Girl... I'm a FAN!
peace
I'm old, thankfully. I got to see Kansas do this live when it was new!! Always been a fan as they incorporate thought provoking lyrics with driving rock and touches of jazz fusion. Certainly a unique combo in that Era.
This album came out in 1976. The previous album in 1975 contains an anthem that you should hear. Great themes, lyrics that make you think and first-rate musicianship. It's called "Song for America".
You will be captivated!!
I think of my beloved parents when i hear this. Both gone now. The gifts i had from each, i struggle every day to use for some good. They are now dust. But still the wind blows dust in the way of the wicked, and while we breathe, we are the wind. Be strong.
Those who have gone were. For you.
How appropriate that a band named Kansas would write a song about the wind and the lack of permanence. No wonder it is gorgeous. One of my favorite songs.....bar none.
I always thought of this song as "intimate." Beautiful work...
I too am a sucker for stringed instruments. Particularly the violin, probably because I used to play it, eons ago. Violin music goes right to my soul.
Great song and reaction!
Happy/Sad at the same time, melancholy is the name for that.
Aileen, I LOVE that these songs from my formative years are affecting you like they did me oh, so many decades ago. Kansas Leftoverture tour 1982 was my first ever rock concert. It’s still as hauntingly beautiful as it was so long ago.
2024 and this song is still not only relevant but still very important 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻☮️
You need to treat yourself to “Miracles out of Nowhere”. It’s a Kansas gem!
This song reminds me of what the pastor tells us on Ash Wednesday. From Dust you came. And to Dust you shall return. Thank you for your wonderful reaction. Please consider reacting to the Kansas song Play the game tonight.
Existential folk, gotta love it
As a fellow musician, I really always love where your analysis is coming from. Good words at the end as well. I bet you would really love another of their huge hits, Point of No Return from their album Point of Know Return.
Following up a big hit like 'Leftoverture' and "Carry on Wayward Son" was daunting, especially for a band like Kansas that has never really trafficked in hit singles. That the cleverly named follow-up was arguably more consistent is a testament to the band, especially given its rigorous touring schedule in support of 'Leftoverture.'
Kansas generally moved back toward shorter pieces here but maintained prog ambitions throughout, stretching things out for "Closet Chronicles" and "Hopelessly Human."
‘Point of Know Return’ solidified their popularity, selling 4 million copies in the U.S. alone. It generated hits with the title track and the iconic ballad “Dust in the Wind,” as well as popular favorites “Sparks of the Tempest” and "Portrait (He Knew)" - Excerpts from Ultimate Classic Rock 2023
As a guitar teacher with 30 years of experience I've taught this song so many times I've lost count. Beautiful guitar playing by Kerry Livgren. This song touches my soul.
Oh back to my childhood in 1977. The great old days of music and life.
I recommend "Cheyenne Anthem" and "The Wall"
This song is a reminder that sometimes we as humans can have an overflated view of our place in this world. In the grand scheme of it all we are just here for a blip in time.
The best part of reaction videos is rediscovering the songs we all forgot were so epic! Because of content creators like you - I buy MORE music than ever from artists I never would have given a second look.
Nothing like a classic 70’s rock band Ballot. The lyrics just hit different
Years back, while still learning the many intricacies of guitar playing, I decided to delve into learning how to play this beautiful piece and remember really struggling with the artful fingerpicking. Those were the good ol' days... days long gone now with my fine motor control greatly diminished due to living with the most aggressive form of MS. This disease hasn't stopped me from appreciating great music like this though. I gotta say, another tune that I also struggled with - fingerpicking-wise - was Just Breathe by Pearl Jam. Thank you for doing this one, Aileen. I didn't know how much I needed it.
My first concert was Kansas in 1978 at the Jacksonville Coliseum (RIP). Amazing! They sounded live like the studio except for the ENERGY! Atlanta Rhythm Section was the warm up band. Kansas was the warm up band for Queen a time or two and Brian May had a lot of good things to say about them.
You doing more Kansas songs is such a fun thing after how cute your last reaction was from by them 😭 Which was also the only time I’ve ever listened to them too so I’m happy I get to listen along with you for these songs ❤️
I have loved Kansas since I was a teenager. Long time ago now. I put this song right up there with The Ode To Joy. A classic that will never die
This was our class song(1978). Wow this song sure nailed it. Time flies by...........
Kansas was one of the best concerts I ever attended
I remember my sister's wedding I requested the guitar player to play this. It ending up being a sing along with upwards of ten people joining in. What a great song. This is one I learned on the guitar also.
That was the song for our high school prom in 1978.
Damn that's cryptic for a high school song lol
My favorite Kansas song. Even way back when I was a kid already, songs like these just spoke to me. Takes me back to a simpler time. Like late eighties/early nineties, my first years of what we call highschool in our country, the first year of music education. We weren't taught to play an instrument in the first two years, but the teacher listened to music with us and broke it down to make us understand the different kinds of music, and the lyrics as well as the meaning behind them. This was one of those songs, and after class I was one of the few to ask him if I could bring an empty cassette tape and if he could put that song on there for me >^_^
All that from a few guys in the middle of Kansas. You are a beautiful human, carry on being you.
You are such a Beautiful Soul, I love your reactions and interpretations on such good Music! Thank You
The violin is the gotcha point in the song that make it timeless
Kansas
Point Of No Return
Beautiful. No auto tune
When this song came out back in the day, absolutely loved it. Bit then the radio wouldn't stop playing it, over and over and over. I grew to loathe it. But now after decades, it's great to hear it again. I'm back to loving it.
can you believe this song came from a preshow finger exercise.....his wife over heard him doing it and made him bring it to the band and heres the final product!!!!!!!A classic!!!!!!!! Aileen your starting to discover why music from the 60's 70's and 80's was so unbelievable great lyrics great musicians and we all love those moments where we fell in love with a song ands so fun to see it happen to you..Beauty moves me to tears, I see it does the same to you....keep digging out the classics....
I visited a high school graduation site, and THIS was their theme song! Lovely tune, a scary graduation song...haha.
Kansas is an awesome band to explore. Super talented everyone of them and they had the coolest album covers. This song is very deep.
Kansas was some of my gen x music. Very profoundly humbling song. It really reminds you of your mortality
I had the pleasure of meeting Robbie a number of times and on a personal basis...a gentleman and a brilliant musician...RIP Robiie.
one of my favorite lines in most any song..."And all your money...Wont another minute buy"....so true
Hi Aileen 😊 An awesome reaction to Kansas's Dust in the Wind😊👍 I remember this playing on the radio for a long long time 😊 Yes indeed 😊 You have captured the message loud and clear😊 It's most important what Mark you leave behind when you're gone... You stated this very beautifully 😊👍 I wish you all the best as you talk about mental health to those who need to hear 😊 and I hope for all the energy for you as you do so 😊 All the recommendations for Kansas songs are wonderful and I look forward to the reactions from you 😊 Have a great day you and Arya 😊👍
Hi from Phoenix Love the band!
This was my friends song at his funeral. He passed away a few years ago and he always loved the line 'all we are is dust in the wind' and used it a lot to describe his life.
My brother loved this song. He had me play it at his funeral.
Saying Kansas already means greatness, then you pick a tune. 🎶
If you want or just play all of them in a row!! Such sweet memories of all the days and nights we have all lived through😊😊😍😍🥰😉and know it’s all Dust!!
another really good song from them to listen to is "Hold On"
If you make another human smile, the universe smiles back at you.
I saw Kansas a few years ago and they are in Toronto tomorrow night and I may go. We'll have to see. They are awesome in concert having two of the original seven members still with the band; however, you wouldn't notice as they are spectacular. If you get a chance to see them live, take it!!
A favorite of mine from them. "People of the South Wind" is also very much listening to. Good reaction. Glad you appreciate them.
Was looking for a mention of that song, I love it, I still have the old 45 record of that tune.
"You're my BOY BLUE! You're my boy..." -- (Frank the Tank: Old School )-- ... This song is played in every tv and movie funeral scenes.
Back in my youth, this was a favorite song of mine and my best friend Billy. He died about 14-15 years ago and this has brought back some memories. It was hard, but good too. Thank you for this.
This song was used with devastating effect in the first season finale of the Highlander TV show… has stuck with me for years even though I was a big fan of Kansas all the way back to the early 80s
Beautiful song by a great band. Brilliant reaction once again Aileen.
I saw them in a small Apache casino close to Alamogordo, New Mexico, in 2016, and they were still f**king awesome !! For a French guy, that was an amazing moment I can't forget, so blessed to have seen Legends as them live !
Almost at 300k subs, Aileen, woohoo! And yet...this too shall pass. A stoic song if there ever was one, existential message. Wisdom put to beautiful music.
Kansas is one of the very best American rock bands, ever. Incredible musicianship and song writing.
