We happened to take a drive up to the top of the Hollywood Hills, past the Greek Theatre, where we saw a sign saying that Supertramp was playing there the next night. We stumbled across the last 2 tickets for sale at 11:00pm from a ticket selling place on Sunset. So we got to see Supertramp on their 1st Concert in 20 years at the Greek Theatre. Unbelievable, experience, great night, one I will never forget.

    I just gotta say you're one of the very few TH-cam with great presentation and reactions. You don't take long to start the actual video and you don't interrupt the song 50 times in one min. Great !

    I had friend in high school that lived just a short way away from school. We would ditch classes, and listen to music. He had a great stereo setup. That was the first time I heard this song. Oh yeah, we were usually high too!

    Jamel I love your reactions. Breakfast in America was my first album I bought when I was 13 years old and it is one of my favourites that I have listen to countless time. I get goosebumps every time at he beginning of this song.

    If he likes harmonica, he needs to react to some blues traveler. Especially "Hook" and "Run Around"

    I would say that Supertramp is one of the greatest underrated artists, but there are many more out there. The music of this era is enjoyable due to the music made during this time. In 2020, I wish there where more artists who would step up to make music to enjoy.

    I have a totally different take on this song. I first heard it while working in Saudi Arabia as a 20 something year old young man. I was a looooong way from home. Prior to working overseas I'd always considered myself just a part of the scenery, but now I was playing a part in a movie show. As another lonely day became another lonely night, I'd sit on a rise looking across the empty blackness at the city lights in the far, far distance. Later in life I'd relate to "when you look through your life and you see what you could have been", not that I hadn't experienced some incredible years... unforgettable. But there were many years abroad. I was not around. Looking back, I think I might have done a few things differently. Great song, gave solace to me as young man alone in a far away land, as well as later in life. To this day, when I'm fortunate to hear it again, it brings back very introspective memories of the empty vastness of those Arabian nights! For reference, I'm now 65.
