[@thomasmarthinussen8978]

@@emilymalden3310 America were originally Dan Peek, Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell. As a trio they would score several hits between 1972 and 1977. Dan Peek left the band in 1977 and America continued on as a duo, Beckley and Bunnell, and they would release several albums between 1979 and 1985, still only one single, You Can Do Magic became a big hit. The other players in this video were their backing band, both on record and in live settings. Beckley and Bunnell has kept going and are still active in 2021, although there's been 10 years since their last album. Dan Peek became a successful Christian contemporary artist but sadly died in 2009. America is a great band, in fact one of my all time favourites!

[@thomasmarthinussen8978]

@@emilymalden3310 Just in case you're not familiar with the band here's some info: America basically were a close harmony Folk Rock trio inspired by Crosby Still and Nash and hit the big time with their first single on Warner Brothers, the now classic A Horse With No Name. Although they would would score a couple of follow up hits in 1972/1973, things really went into the stratosphere when they got Beatles producer George Martin to produce their albums, starting with Holiday in 1974 and Hearts in 1975. Massive hit singles like Sister Golden Hair and Lonely People made America arguably the equal of The Eagles in term of commercial and artistic impact. Things begun to go sour in the late 70s, after losing Dan Peek to religion and the music climate was changing as well, moving away from the Soft Rock of America to New wave and Disco inflected music. Still they were a popular touring ensemble and would get a comeback hit in 1982 with You Can Do Magic, a more hook laden synth popper. More or less not a functional concern in the mid/ late 80s, Beckley and Bunnell resurrected America in the mid 90s and have been relaxing albums sporadically ever since. As a touring band, they're massively popular and they're first class artists, singers and songwriters, writing more or less every song they record themselves. Their to date latest album Back Pages, however, consisted of 12 cover songs and it's a fine album. God bless America! The band, that is!

. . . check out Alizee or Joyce Jonathan. . .quality music has a universal sound. . . you don't have to speak or understand French. . .but you, if you are open to new sounds, can sense and feel the pure magic in the next generations and their transcending music that will blow away stuff from the 20th century. . just wait a decade or so. . .(the comments above are IMHO) & the fact that historically all music evolves, changes & progresses into new sounds & genres by observing & practicing the previous generations works AND then thru hard work, some luck & inner inspiration from their selves or their friends take music to the next level. . . have faith that things WILL improve & get better. . .the BEST is yet to come. . .

This is one of my favorites songs from the many thousands that I have heard across 55 years of living. Also there is something about this video that is so attractive to watch. A fine group of musicians and singers who look like real men who create world class music.

Love this song so much. My ex husband sent me this link, reminding me that I used to sing it to my son when he was a baby on the changing table. When I used to say 'You can do Magic" I used to say "Bing Bing," in a high voice and he would giggle and giggle. A beautiful memory... unfortunately, he was killed in April 2002 at the age of 20. I always wanted to recreate this memory with my grandchildren. We'll see...hopefully soon now that my daughter has found her forever love. ❤️
