- "The Logical Song" is a song by the English rock group Supertramp that was released as the lead single from their album Breakfast in America in March 1979. It was written primarily by the band's Roger Hodgson, who based the lyrics on his experiences being sent away to boarding school for ten years. The song became Supertramp's biggest hit, rising to No. 7 in the UK and No. 6 on the US Billboard chart.
It was a very personal song for Hodgson; he had worked on the song during soundchecks, and completed the lyrics and arrangement six months before proposing it to the band for the album. In 1980, Hodgson was honoured with the Ivor Novello Award from The British Academy of Composers and Songwriters for "The Logical Song" being named the best song both musically and lyrically. "The Logical Song" also has the distinction of being one of the most quoted lyrics in schools.

These lyrics apply to life NOW- more than EVER!!
so true
Indeed
So true ...
Read my mind Dude
More than ever!!!
I listened to this song many-many yrs ago, but know at 65 yrs old it takes on a whole new meaning.
❤❤❤❤I love u Tommy, there can never be anyone else❤❤❤❤
Now that I listen to this song at an old age, the lyrics make much more sense. Especially during these crazy times. 😊🎹
I feel your feelings
Few of us that can remember our life before school seem to have a strong emotional feeling to this song
interesting....was noticing this as well.
@@Sconnieification it's a good song
Truth!
Forgot how much I love this song
This song was lyrically and musically inspired. One of my favorites.
To me this song is about having an identity crisis and unfortunately it rings so true to me. I joined the Army at 17. After serving 20 years and looking around now I ask myself why. I believed in freedom and patriotism. Exhausting days and sleepless nights doing my duty. Now I am labeled as a thought criminal if I say those beliefs. It hurts that I can't remember who I was before that. This song is exactly what I feel and ask myself. Almost every day.
Then "someone" labels you with PTSD and gives you drugs to get you before you get yourself. Went in the military in 1971 got out in 1991 drove a truck (over the road) for almost 20 years. Been married close to 50 years and the Government wants to give me stuff cc as long as my grandchildren will pay for it. RETIREMENT AIN'T ALL IT'S CRACKED UP TO BE.
Thank you and to all veterans that served to protect democracy. Much respect. Find your way back to the child inside of you that holds the key.
It’s not an identity crisis. You are waking up, remember who you are.
A great song 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Still
@@harrykoulountis2989 hell ya it is a great song
One of the best band Supertramp !!!
One, two, three, five. Love it
I suffer from anxiety and depression but this song transports me to another dimension giving me peace and tranquility.
Thank you for sharing that about yourself- MANY PPL DO, BUT HIDE IT- AND IN THESE DAYS SOCIAL ANVIETY IS HUGE- DEPRESSION IS ON THE RISE, YET...... ISOLATION, AND "NOT" SHARING- CONTRIBUTES TO DIGGING THAT HOLE- DEEPER & DARKER!! IT IS GREAT THAT MUSIC CAN TRANSFORM YOUR FEELINGS- EMOTIONS- ,&, STATE OF MIND!! HONESTLY....... I THINK THIS SONG, DOES THE SAME FOR ME- IT ALWAYS MAKES ME FEEL BETTER!!
I agree with that statement, may peace be with y'all whenever it can, or you can find peace yourself. I just said this in another comment, but I'm partial to cheesecake and hours of mentation without attachment or thought, and observing existence move and be. Sapientia sapienti dono data.
SPIDERHEAD on Netflix reminded me how LOGICAL this song is- and brought me here!! I've listened to it so many times (haven't gotten back to the movie yet!!) LOLZ
Same
Few of us that can remember our life before school seem to have a strong emotional feeling to this song
Oh my gosh that just brought me back to this song too 😄
I LOVED Supertramp when I was a kid and my mom would play it!
Fabulosa canción se anticipó a su época!!!!!!!
It is 11/10/2023 and it is here.... all these lyrics...have come to fruition ....and it's about to change. Change for a more beautiful world ... we can't stop what's comin.....those aware know what I mean.... it is here! 🦚🌎🌟 tell it Supertramp 😉
GREAT SONG FOREVER
Fabulous song, fabulous band. Thank you. ❤
Supertramp made this based on everyone's life Roger Hodgson had the right clue to make this song because when we were young it seemed that life was so wonderful a miracle and beautiful and magical and now nobody's got no idea
When I woke up this a.m. this song was playing in my head. I could hear the melody and some lyrics. I'm glad I made it here
Spiderhead movie brought me to this song. I can’t believe I’m almost 50 years old and had never heard this song… I know it sounds absurd 😂 But seriously, these lyrics are magical. I can’t stop listening. I’ve shared it with at least 10 people already.
Very moving. Still have the album...on tape...from the 70's. Jep!
Some songs required thought when you listened. Such an honest song, full of questions, I remember listening so much when this was on FM Stereo Rock Music Channels, often heard on the Interstate thoughour the United States, I loved the questions of this song, it required thought and consideration of the available evidence. Great Song when it was released back then, Good song for today.
It still as true as when the song was first written.
This song is America today
Oh.. It's getting u n b e l i e v a b l e🎸 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎸🎵
Is it a wonder we baby boomers do not get on in this world when this is what we listened to ...we knew even then what was on the way
listening to it i realize how deep it is. the story of my life really.
This song speaks to times today more than ever! Who are we?
Siete solo dei geni di musica e parole, avanti a tutti di millenni, vi adoro cari ST.❤
"Watch what you say they'll be calling you a radical a liberal oh fanatical criminal" Very prophetic just before the Reagan revelution.
This song... more than ever, it seems we need to hold on to THE GREAT ONE -- thanking JESUS ... moving with the HOLY SPIRIT. 🌬🙇🏼♀️🕊
If any wonders what's the point of this song, I believe it's this: Don't forget or shun your inner child (the longer it's repressed, the harder it is to dig out) and learn how to play the game of American capitalist life while letting the world play you as little as possible. "This is cliche, but with most cliches there is a profound wisdom"; there's always time to change. One just has to realize it and push through despite fear. Sapientia sapienti dono data.
*Yes I know they are English.
Nope you are wrong.
That's fine, I've been wrong before. I partially accept it, but will need a bigger consensus before I wholely believe you. I hope you believe yourself.
@@DrDuckDrDuck-jh7ki It's about questioning authority. Society wants us to be obedient little citizens. When you question it you get shunned by being called a conspiracy theorist, bigot, or religious nut.
Understandable, what you're saying. Fortunately, I am unable to be influenced in any way by most things unless I agree to it.* (Other things like an earthquake or tornado or taxes can affect me despite what I will.) I believe most people need to be controlled or guided or pointed in a new direction; and that it is not a good or bad thing, just the way the cookie crumbles for most. Although, the ones doing the controlling could do a far better job than they are but everyone plays the cards they're dealt... and the extra cards slipped in. "With absolute power come the absolute certainty that they'll be a right c**t." If you read this far, check out that Latin phrase in my 1st post, or not. You might be ready to go down the rabbit hole. I doubt it, but I never know for sure, and pointing someone to the trials, adventures and rewards that particular rabbit hole brings is always worth it, and I don't mind. Regardless of it all, good luck to you and may peace find you whenever it can, or you can find peace yourself, I'm partial to cheesecake and hours of mentation without attachment or thought.
OBRIGADO. SUPER.
My parents raised me on this
Me to man
I used to force my dad to play this for me when I was like, 5? 6? I forgot it's name and couldn't find it for years because I only remembered bits and pieces of the melody. I had very good music taste at 5
Nothing iS logical anymore
Awesome
I love this song a lot ❤and I am in love with myself
1 Corinthians 15:1-4! Salvation is as easy as Believing!!! Jesus came, died, was buried and rose again on the 3rd day for you!!!! He loved you so much that He died for you!!
