    Supertramp's lyrics have always been a treat, no matter how devastatingly serious the message could be sometimes. They were philosophers with an incredible musical talent. Good old days of music. True words, convincing music.

    A message that resonated with me as a teenager and helped determine that I would never fit in with the conventional, practical and responsible world. Those words still make my skin crawl. Great songwriting.

    • @DonHaka
      @DonHaka 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The message of this song certainly resonated with me aswell, although for me it had more to do with how society and specifically education during capitalist ideology is stripping away the soul of every kid to turn them into obedient, mindless workers and consumers.

    Man, this is the sound of my childhood. Breakfast in America and their Live in Paris double album were huge sellers here in France. For years on. Breakfast in America is still the fourth best selling album of all time in our country. Those sounds, those songs, they were ubiquitous, and The Logical Song most of all.

    I've followed Supertramp from Crime of the Century all the way to Brother Where You Bound. All top albums. I remember working at a bakery for vacation work when Breakfast in America was released. There was a guy who had a 90 minute cassette filled with just this song and playing it on repeat for weeks! Still like the song a lot though. After the break with the band Hodgson released a couple of nice solo albums of which the first one (In the Eye of the Storm) was the best to my ears. Still play their albums every once in a while (there are so many choices available these days).

    I didn't know Roger wrote this about uncertainy in school - an interesting coincidence, because in '79 or '80, Pink Floyd's "Another Brick In The Wall" was also a single climbing the charts, and also expresses protest to the rigorous English boarding schools, and how thought control is stifling the student's individuality.

    When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful
    A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical
    And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily
    Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me
    But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible
    Logical, oh responsible, practical
    And then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable
    Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical
    There are times when all the world's asleep
    The questions run too deep
    For such a simple man
    Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
    I know it sounds absurd
    Please tell me who I am
    I said, watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical
    A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
    Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable
    Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!
    Oh take it, take it, take it, yeah
    But at night, when all the world's asleep
    The questions run so deep
    For such a simple man
    Won't you please (Oh won't you tell me)
    Please tell me what we've learned (Can you hear me)
    I know it sounds absurd (Oh won't you help me)
    Please tell me who I am
    Who I am
    Who I am
    Who I am
    'Cause I was feeling so logical
    D-d-d-d-d-d-digital
    One, two, three, five
    Oh, oh, oh, oh yeah
    Ooh it's getting unbelievable, yeah

    You should try the first Supertramp album. The eponymous album with the flower head on the cover. It is so different that you could ask if it is the same band. Sounds more like Barclay James Harvest than to even their second album Indelibly Stamped (the one with the tits on the cover).

    For the vocal vs sax in the coda, I think you are looking for the word chase. In jazz, you often have a chase between say a solo instrument and the drums. Could be that.

    A big hit from a big, big album. Not my favourite from it, but still a goody. It was huuuge, and that work from Supertramp's not-so-secret weapon, John Helliwell's sax, was perfect. The lyrics follow on the theme from earlier Supertramp songs like "School" and "Bloody Well Right". BTW, you'll also probably know that album's title track, because it was used a few years back as the basis for a hip-hop hit by Gym Class Heroes.

    I don’t consider “respectable” a positive word. Respectable is not based on your own impulses and morals; it’s based on putting on a mask a suit, erasing your individuality in favour of what you think the group will like best. It’s the people who attack POC or queers for being loud when we protest. “You should be respectable and work within the system.” Nope, respectability politics will only get you so far. Throw it away; be outrageous and, above all, true to yourself.
