Breakfast in America - Written and Composed by Roger Hodgson (Supertramp)

If they don't play this at my funeral, I'm not going.

I Will!

If the people complain at your funeral about me, i won't care

[@Daniel-lq5qq]

One of the greatest songs of all time

[@jamesmoser1939]

Such a hard flex to roll out playing the electric clarinet

[@kayleighwyatt8737]

I'm a clarinetist who's still impressed by that riff. It's tough!

[@Mewhen12369]

@@kayleighwyatt8737 I play it an octave down, easier to get right.

[@donnix768]

@@kayleighwyatt8737 As someone who played the Clarinet from 4th grade through 12th, it is so cool see a clarinet used in a rock band context. The player is John Helliwell, who played soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophone along with the Bb clarinet in SUPERTRAMP.

[@aegisgfx]

Yeah but it's not an electric clarinet it's just a clarinet with a microphone on it

Supertramp was “the band” of the 70’s. Their songs will remain in my mind forever. Love them!!!

[@Changelingheart]

Well, not "the band" of the 70s, but certainly a memorable group in the Top 20, possibly Top 10.🎉

[@Anastasia-nk9dd]

They are the best band ever❤

Самый лучший альбом! 👌🤟👍 . Столько лет прошло, а как слушается💞💞💞💞💞

[@gnosis7662]

Love this song! My parents used to play it all the time on their record player when I was 5 years old. It stuck with me ever since!

[@patdthomas]

An amazing and almost forgotten album. Don't ever let it be lost in the dustbin of time.

[@lol-dn6nx]

I disliked because I don’t think it will die

[@lordvadertheleftie9703]

It'll never be forgotten

[@rinat7221]

The beginning of this song was used in No Doubt - Don't Speak and the part that left in Gym Class Heroes - Cupid's Chokehold. Not that I'm saying it's a good progression but I'm sure it won't be forgotten, because it's inspiration for relatively modern singers left alone listeners.

[@veroniquemeillier4100]

impossible for me!!!

[@averagepaolidamenjoyer9855]

If that gets lost that's very sad indeed. It used to be my lilife Rodger hodgsonas my everyday. Now I listen to my everyday

Finally some originals from Supertramp

[@rosecliff2613]

this is not the original video. The original was animated and was created in 1979. It was directed by Bruce Gowers. You may never be able to view this on KZbin due to a copyright claim. The real reason however is that at 2:22 into the video, a plane slams into one of the twin towers. This is a bit of a problem for the band as the album art if viewed in a mirror also shows the numbers 911 directly over the towers. Not to mention the view of Manhattan is from a plane. So they block the video from being viewed but occasionally people do upload it and you can see it if you are lucky and looking ^^

[@sm64be]

​@@rosecliff2613if this is true, it would be on another website other than KZbin, like internet archive. So where is it?

I don't always listen to supertramp, but when I do.. so do my neighbors.

this is rock not country

[@huskyfaninmass1042]

@@davidcarson7855 Sounds more like klezmer with the clarinet.

This came out when I was 10 years old -38 years later I still remember every word, can't remember when last I heard it. It's the great ones that stick in your mind.

[@raygordonteacheschess5501]

I was twelve and had started buying Billboard and listening to AT40 just as this hit #1. The album was very well-constructed, with a great concept. The song reflects how foreigners see America.

[@Changelingheart]

Supertramp had a unique sound. Almost as unique as Pink Floyd when they 1st brought their music to the US..🎉 We won't forget.

[@oludotunjohnshowemimo434]

This is real, undiluted music that came from the heart.

Pearl of art rock. Peerless work. I've been listening and getting aesthetic pleasure for so many years. Hello from Georgia!

[@RafaelHEscobar]

I heard this album for the first time a month ago on audio tape. At first glance I thought these voices belonged to young (beardless) kids until my Internet research begun... I really appreciate that music like this exist and receive so much appreciation because of its proper execution and production. You may excuse my grammar, but english is not my native language.

[@brookcrowley4254]

Great scat vocals, clarinet, double bass, trombone, and backing vocals from John Halliwell.

WOW WOW! GENIAL, GENIAL 👍🎶👌👏👏👍👍👍🎼👍👌👍🙃

[@TheVerdilac]

Love the vintage sound quality. Actually think it sounds better in some ways than the remastered version.

[@puppyupper4565]

I don't think its in stereo. I have a good sound system and this seems so monotone

[@nuvotion-live]

No way, it sounds terrible. And it's not vintage either, it sounded just fine the way they recorded it lol

[@leafbelly]

This isn't "vintage." It's just Shite. The sound back when they recorded this did not sound like this at all. This is KZbin.

[@patrickmccarron5059]

One of the few bands that sounds better in concert than pre-recorded. I can only think of one other band (Queen) able to that.

Thaaaank you Rodger! This is exactly what I was asking for, and I'm sure many more of your admirer's. I remember seeing this I believe here in the States in the late 70's or early 80's. Man, this is just totally cool! Please if possible,....more! I was 15 in 78, your music helped make my life so joyful, and healing through the rough parts of it. For myself, and as you surely know, so many others....thank you!!!
