​@@ronstone6839 Yep, they are the coolest sounding horns ever, They have a funk band vibe but with a rock beat, and even some jazz vibes too// So much going on. There were a few bands around at this time with a horn section like Wings. This song was 1970, Wings started in 1971. There were quite a few funk/R&B/Soul bands with horn sections. What about KC and the Sunshine band, they had a horn section but they started in 73. Elvis had a band with a good horn section in the late 60's. There were a few around.

My stepdad died October 2, 2024, after a long battle with early onset dementia. He loved music up to the very end. One of the last things he asked me to do was learn how to play this song on his guitar, which I never managed to do before he died. After the funeral (which was on a Friday), I went out to the lake at midnight, where I could see nothing but stars for miles, and I played this song. Right as the song ended, I saw a shooting star. I play this song every Friday night in his honor, and plan to do so for a while. And I still plan to learn it on his guitar, too.

So glad my older brother introduced me to Chicago by buying me their greatest hits back around 1975. I was 13. I was hooked but I never told him. He died a few years ago at 70 yrs old. He did eventually know I liked them but they became my favorite band when I finally "grew up" into my 40s Lol. They are still my favorite band. Though I mostly listen to gospel music now I cant seem to put these guys away for good. They are in my blood and it gives me good memories of my brother. My crazy brother that I loved dearly bought a Pacer in 75. He taught me how to ride his Honda motorcycle and took me to Taco Bell for my very first time. He served in Vietnam. He came home and was kind of a hippie Lol. I wish he were still around but I will see him again in Heaven. They have different music up there but I'm good with that! You know why? They got horns! Lol And it glorifies God. Sorry for rambling. Felt good though.

Jerry, this song brings me memories of my brother also. I am 80 this month and my brother was seven years younger than me and our dad got us both into playing music in his band in our early teens. After I bought Chicago 2 in 1970 and my brother and I sat in my mom's living room floor and listened to it for a couple of hours, including hearing 25 or 6 to 4 about a dozen times, this became my favorite record since then. At least 3 or 4 mornings a week, I go on KZbin and listen to it really loud so my neighbors can hear it. It always energizes me as soon as that opening bass and guitar starts up the intro. My brother passed away from cancer in 2016, and I always think of him when I hear it because the lyrics describe perfectly how he and I stayed up all night writing and recording our songs, then as the sun came up, we would be standing there with headphones on smiling at each other as we listened to what we had created together. I miss my brother, but this musical masterpiece brings me closer to him whenever I hear it.

Twenty five or 6 to 4, oh yeah!

I usually like songs for their melody, not their lyrics (which can get a Catholic boy explaining himself, at times!). I like everything about 25 or 6 to 4. It was a genius lyric in the song and fit perfectly. Thank you, Chicago! Live long and prosper, 25 or 6 to 4. BTW, it was 26.

Amazing combo of Peter Cetera's passionate voice and the stabbing brass, which all gives way to Terry Kath's solo, which later becomes a backing instrument when the singing comes back to the front. Great progressive music.

I LOVE the older Chicago songs w/ the horns...ohhh yeah! I was in a Drum Corp I twirled the rifle. I was color guard. But we had a Fantastic horn assembly and with it being 1975 76 77...We did Alot of Chicago songs 🎵 And when we went to competitions, we'd always get 1st place! Because we did Chicago songs that were on the radio and we had a huge horn.line. I married my first love, he played baritone. My son ended up playing baritone in the Bristol. RI 4th of July parade..America's oddest parade. 🎺🎺📯🎶🎵🎶🎺🥁🥁
