Very sad. Feel blessed for discovering these guys later in life. A great influence. RIP Burke!

[@romanq5605]

Wspomnienia zalewają myśli. Mój tato zaczytany na fotelu, mama kupiła mięso na kartki, siostra jak radio. A ja w pokoju z słuchawkami odpływam przy Budgie. Teraz sam jestem rodzicem. Ten utwór jeszcze bardziej melancholijny. Czas, życie, mgnienie oka.

[@boguslawak9439]

Super komentarz jak by sam napisał i to przmijanie

[@waynegodfrey6119]

You got that right.

[@thisismagacountry1318]

I'm stealing the last sentence 😂

[@jarekzeniuk8248]

Najpiękniejszy komentarz, nic dodać.

[@arekchopecki2886]

I've been listening to this song for over 30 years now and still can't find words to describe its beauty. Budgie - the most underrated band in history.

[@jerzybecik1120]

Well said Arek! Cheers!

[@adrianfelipe6148]

Arek Chłopecki agree

[@hoonycr500]

+ 1

[@morisco56]

Agree but for me the most underrated band will always be UFO

[@chriscollier7469]

Totally agree

[@keithbradley5243]

When I was 15 years old I used to sit on my bed play my accoustic and sing 'Riding My Nightmare' and 'You Know I'll Always Love You' but this song I used to go to bed and listen to this with my eyes closed. Loved it. Sometimes waking up in the middle of the night with my record player still on, humming and headphones still on. Magic memories. Budgie, Cardiff's finest.

[@bernardthedisappointedowl6938]

A beautifully painted picture that comment, thanks, ^oo^

[@f0njoe927]

Rest in peace Burke, love this song

[@pauldaly3952]

Finest 3 piece Rock Band ever R.I.P Burke Shelley.

[@mrbruceriddell]

Never stops impressing

[@marshalkrieg2664]

This song has to rank as one of the best rock songs of all time, I would put money on that.

[@bradwtferson2585]

PLAYING THIS TRACK ON 2X SPEED WILL GRANT YOU ALL THE THINGS YOU EVER WANTED, AND MAGICAL POWERS, AND FREE FOOD

[@fretsnreeds]

We lent each other records, I lent Brain Salad Surgery, he lent Never turn your back on a friend, we swapped them back after two weeks but I had to buy my own I was 15 and hooked. Headphones on eyes closed and surrounded by this work of harmony and gritty playing, in 2021 I feel the same way I listen to this on my laptop, eyes closed and time traveling back on a wave of pure beautiful nostalgia, this and riding my nightmare... just bloody incredible.

[@theguyof360]

Nostalgia is a truly wonderful thing eh?

[@DavidHawkins-sk7re]

This band should be in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. They started it all in 1967.

[@michaelshiel831]

I only discovered Budgie in 2020 thank you covid , i listen to them everyday ,love them

[@stigeriksen6479]

Saw them 1 of May 74 and I love this album, 💖, and Parents is maybe one of the best tracks ever 💖

[@9326metal]

Just discovered them this year.

[@AnyFuleKnoThat]

Almost 50 years listening to this band, and this is my most loved track by them ❤

[@richardmarquet4500]

you have a lot of catching up to do my friend there is a song for every mood welcome aboard !

[@B0X666]

You should NOT thank Covid for anything!!

[@rorygilmoreNZ]

Awesome band. One of the best heavy rock bands of all time. You will be missed Burke Shelley.

[@ixoye56]

This is one of my favorite songs of all time, I was 17 when I bought this album in 1974, and I still remember the first time I put it on my turntable and the sound poured out of my JBL speakers... what a wonderful time the 70's was .

[@KarinaWatson-b7b]

This is one of my favourite tracks of all time been listening to it for yrs .. sublime ❤️

[@markoivancan2805]

Big up to hard rock welsh giants from Zagreb,real good meaningfull music Budgie was playin from the get go deserved to be on top like Who,Zeppellin,Thin Lizzy etc

[@Grrizo]

The guitar in the end is not emulating the sound of seagulls, it's the sound of nestlings calling for their parents.

[@TheVidkid67]

Well spotted mate :)

[@marktaco276]

true story? always thought it was a slide being used past the last fret...

[@FreddyD177]

Holy shit yooooooooooo I always just thought it was birds chirping but now this makes perfect sense why they used this on the song cus it's about parents. Got me in the feels now wow

[@Johnny_Golgotha]

Yeah. Ouch.

[@robertallerton3638]

I didn't know that wasn't real lol my bad I love this song it never gets old

[@wiesawherliczko367]

Znakomita kompozycja. Całkowicie ponadczasowa. Można tworzyć piękno zaledwie na trzech instrumentach. Dwie gitary, perkusja i znakomity wysoki wokal. To prawdziwa perła wśród ponadczasowych kompozycji

[@lawrencesantana7253]

The beauty of this song to me is like listening to it in the paecefulness of the forest with the chirping of the birds and the rustling of the trees and hearing the waves of the ocean coming in at the same time. This song transports me to both at the same time. And thats without the acid.

[@thelmacummings425]

So true.

[@milosal3991]

Just Beautiful. I lost my Brother Raul, we just loved this. Miss you Brother. R.I.P. Burke Shelley. Heaven added another Beautiful Soul.

[@maxbroberg5586]

Man sad to hear of Burke Shelleys death. At least he made a few masterpieces like this song during his life. Rest i peace legend.

[@chrishodkin4677]

RIP Burke Shelley, Budgie were one of the greatest bands. I feel very sad. Thankyou for some of rock most outstanding music.

[@pauldavey]

This song gets me every time deep and meaningful🤔 probably one of their best 🤔😎 If you are not nodding your head to this then there is no hope for you.

[@shuster1921]

Amen!💯

[@alanthom4641]

....nodding......😊

[@losrolling8027]

STILL SEND SHIVERS DOWN MY SPINE ... WHEN I HEAR THIS AFTER ALL THIS YEARS... RIP BURKE SHELLY... 🎵🔝😍😍😍

[@ianturnbull6116]

Seen budgie 1978 at Newcastle unbelievable got Tony Borg plek I'm 60 now and still play there music fantastic band

[@mrbruceriddell]

Been listening for 40 years

[@markymark8008]

OMG!😮 Not listened to this song for decades. It’s like meeting an old friend Bloody masterpiece 😎🎸

[@JohnPirhanafish]

Budgie's best song ever.

[@richardmarquet4500]

one of their best songs ever there is so many

[@michaelbochnia5686]

For me it is Nude Disintegrating Parachutist Woman, but they have a bunch that are very tasty.

[@petergonzales6633]

Pink floyd

[@petergonzales6633]

The wall

[@youreatoilet]

@@petergonzales6633 What does pink floyd have to do with Budgie?

[@mariuszkowalski7773]

Jak byłem małym chłopcem, usłyszałem gdzieś muzykę, puszczaną z magnetofonu ZK-120 , jak się później okazało,to był zespół Budgie, od tamtej pory, aż po dzisiejszy dzień, często słucham tej muzyki a to dopiero 50 lat ...

[@indianski]

ja bylem o poziom wyzej. mialem zk-140

[@nwester6144]

I thought I was a huge Budgie fan in the 70's and I never heard this song! So thankful to those that keep this music alive. Amazing song....ditto: UNDER RATED band. I hope Burke Shelley checks these videos out and sees all the love.

[@deedeedigsit5376]

My favorite song on this album! Never Turn Your Back on a Friend takes me back nearly 40 years! I must’ve played this album a thousand times! Thanks for the upload!! 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰

[@majsiewiczm57]

Jedna z najwspanialszych ballad rockowych.❤❤❤❤

[@tiagorabelo7396]

R.I.P Burke Shelley 😪

[@rootoothelmet2387]

This band released so much amazing stuff. It is beyond belief how they did not make it really big. Lack of backing I guess. They were brilliant. A travesty of justice.

[@gaseousgiant8053]

How can I have never heard of this til today??? Great song, lyrics, vocals and a guitarist that flips from smooth and tasty to aggro and in your face! I liked Breadfan a lot but this is amazing!

[@4kingnews288]

there is no best song. Budgie is just awesome.

[@jamesdunne5638]

Only now I realize, why my parents had to try.....Love you all and keep you all my life! RIP Burke Shelly. Thanks for being part of the music of my teenage years.

[@squarelecircle]

One of my top 5 albums ever!

[@FeelingShred]

I was very intrigued by the sound of that song "Pyramids" from this album (and also the title of course) Upon hearing it I could not avoid but to think of some tracks on the Judas Priest' "Point of Entry" from a few years later, stuff like Solar Angels and Desert Plains

[@FeelingShred]

seems like a whole lot of bands took "inspiration" from Budgie stuff without mentioning them

[@richardvasquez6746]

I've loved this song ever since my dad showed it to me when I was about 13 or 14 now I'm 29 and was finally able to add this record to my collection.

[@marcinbaj3000]

Rest in peace Burke, Budgie the most underrated band of all time

[@ShawtyPhatt]

I absolutely love that this song... (which is probably my most favorite song from Budgie...) Plays for 11:11 it's entirety... 11 minutes, & 11 seconds...hmmm, I wonder if Budgie did that purposely...they were mos definitely ahead of their time ❤🎯🎶🎹🎤🎼🎵🔊🎸😎☺😊💡🌍👏💬🙏🌱💪💞💨✊🍃⚡🌌👥💭🌟💥🌐👀🔥✨

[@gabi.m.hshshs8913]

Hah:))) 11:11

[@michelmuller5183]

This is the best thing rock gave us. What a feeling, what a guitar...!

[@FeelingShred]

that intro... 1973... wow... miles ahead...

[@johnhernandez8090]

Old school rock from the Heart is by far the Best........

[@Elvis_Gonzalez]

This song used to always make me cry instantly. I lost my dad when I was 7 years old to alcoholism/drugs and I really owe a lot of my current love for music to him. We would take car rides and listen to Santana, The Doors, Hendrix, Elvis Presley, Hendrix, etc. and I took it from there! Thank you Budgie for helping me embrace my loss and RIP Burke Shelley.

[@Pogavranjen]

abusing repeat option. wow. magic these bands had.... Whisbone Ash, Blue Öyster Cult, Camel.... I'm speachless.... magick!

[@edwardandrade548]

RIP Burke Shelley

[@garyv2498]

The song makes me weep.

[@Wojtus425]

We will always remember You here in Poland !!

[@iandawson9816]

timeless poetry

[@TERRMINAITER96]

This song brings me back memories from my childhood.

[@Dusko1945]

Aside from the awesome giutar/bass/drums etc. in this song, as a teenager, I learned a very valuable life lesson on growing up and how important my family and friends were, are and always be in my life!

[@andyrock6481]

Best concert I seen live in 78 in Austin original band members

[@bungieflute]

La Semana Elegre' San Anton or some part of Fiesta, I used to drink but I still do too...

[@poohface1034]

Said already... most underrated band ever...they were awesome musicians. Every few years, get back into their music and re-visit it all over again. Been listening to them for 20 years or more...

[@chuckmagpie4159]

Listening To This Song, It Brought Tears Into My Eyes. Reminisching About My Childhood & When I Was Young. I Miss Those Good Old Days, When Things Were Simpler And This World Was Alot Better (Saner)

[@magorzatapersona7393]

Trochę mi przypomina piosenki do Bonda :) Liryczna ballada z "tym czymś". Dziękuję :)

[@fredrudow6465]

60 years old thought id heard everything rock had produced at least once. i was apparently wrong, this is my 1st experience with the band i am pleasently impressed. wonder why ive never heard of them, for some reason i keep waiting to hear them play a rock copy of my funny valentine

[@marceloramos4386]

Monstro..incrivel..muito bommmmm

[@seanhennessy]

Favourite from the 70s, many a night out of my head with this blasting full volume on the system :)

[@MrRukiddin]

Bourge is a monster player.It was never quite the same ,for me,after he left.

[@tonybrown9797]

So great to be alive

[@seanhennessy]

Pure awesome. Great to find it now, used to rack it up in the 70's after a night out :)

[@eltinjones4542]

What a brilliant song, haven't heard it since the mid 70's. Thanks Ps, So sad about Burke Shelley

[@dilltdog1158]

What a fitting epitaph to Burke Shelley.

[@andrewmacdonald1103]

Fantastic musicianship as well as the artwork. The budgie has a log held. The other set of talons is in attack mode. The whip makes a face on the beige / brown rocks. An eye, a smile, and a nose. The highest stone on the stack on the right resembles ET's face, he is sliding into the green lake. The big mountain has a horn like a unicorn, beneath that, there are eyes and the face of a Moomin. The beige / brown mountainside between and behind the budgie wings clearly depicts the face of a predator. A bear, a fox, or something similar, it is there. I'm sure that there are other hidden meanings. What a superb song.

[@chrissilverhand1]

Simply a superb song. R.I.P. John Burke Shelley.

[@DTM-Books]

Excellent album! Every song is solid, there's lots of crunchy guitars and cool solos, production is solid. And Breadfan is terrific. Thanks for uploading the entire album and sharing.

[@ianpmckay]

Possibly my favourite Budgie track ever, such wonderful lyrics and incredibly inspired playing. 😊

[@januszgrabowski2991]

Piękne i aktualne od 40 lat

[@jonathannieto3111]

Amazing song. Beautyful álbum. La caratula es iconográfica. La mejor banda de los '70. Mi disco de cabecera. It's the soundtrack of my youth. Thanx for the uploading. Saludos. From Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia.

[@meatwarwick]

saw them at warwick uni back in the day..they were late and helped them set up! amazing night!!

[@arlenburgin2392]

Badass bass in this one..

[@barbaranietupski8364]

Piekne!!!

[@kevinindublin]

Slightly eerie feel to this song.

[@timmillan6701]

Kind of an odd sentiment in rock music, but if you have lived long enough, you get it. My parents were pretty good to me, and if that wasn’t your experience, well then, I am truly sorry for you, my friend.

[@randallmarsh2672]

Just recently found this awsome band..deff heavy...love it

[@richardwatson298]

This song gets me in the goddamn feels everytime. Goddamnit.

Utwór który łagodzi mój nastrój jest świetny a jego tytuł(rodzice) to są wspomnienia młodzieńczych lat och to były piękne lata i chwile.

[@filosofemhliskjalf]

Wash your hands and up to bed, Mind your manners or your dead, Mind the cars 'cause you've got school on monday. Black is black and white is white, Witch to choose and witch is right, Guide me to a place where I was stay, Wrap me up and keep me warm, Hide myself far from the storm, Sleep and love will keep my mind at rest. Only now I realise why my parents had to try, Love you all and keep you all my life. Oh that road is there, Oh the road is there, Come on back, back!!!!
