I've heard this song thousands of times and never get tired of it. Absolutely magical.

[@kennethrussell1158]

I'm 65 years old and it's great to see these young people interested and reacting to this rich history of pop music .

[@realbser1956]

That’s Danny Seraphine on the skins. A great, great rock n roll drummer. 🥁

[@Beatles4Sale.]

My favorite Chicago song. The drumming at the end of this song is unbelievable. ❤️❤️❤️

[@alcambrola2834]

Yes, just before going into the final horn break, the drumming is pure lightning.

[@gotrhythm1]

This is THE song that made me learn to play the drums. It literally changed my life!

[@TheCkent100]

They are from Chicago. Their original name was "The Big Thing", before they changed the name to "Chicago Transit Authority" for their first album. They were threatened with legal action by the actual Chicago Transit Authority, so shortened the name to "Chicago" for the second and all subsequent albums. You should listen to "Ballad for a Girl in Buchannon" from their second album. It is a 7 song, 13 minute suite of songs that really shows the bands versatility and included the singles "Make Me Smile / Now More Than Ever" and "Colour My World".

[@alcambrola2834]

One of my favorites. They were at the top of their game.

[@lorin6673]

I remember listening to this song on AM radio back in the day and loving it. I still love it now.

[@timmiszkowski9222]

Danny Saraphine is the Drummer. Really good 👍

[@jeffp3415]

I was attending High School in the Chicago area in the 70's, when the real Chicago band was at it's peak. You're right about that marching band sound - Chicago songs were major favorites of the pep bands!

[@scottmatzeder9162]

Chicago is one of my all time favorite bands! They have a full bodied sound that is smooth, raw and oh so Classy! Terry Kath is a BEAST! In fact the entire band is full with super stars, true masters of their craft!

[@alcambrola2834]

If you want to see one of the best guitar solo ever live, check out "Chicago live at Tanglewood, 1970 and the song is "25 or6 to 4" I watch it at least once a week. The look on trumpeter Lee Loughnane's face is priceless watch Terry shred the solo.

[@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer]

I always wanted to play trumpet in this band. They are so tight.

[@alcambrola2834]

I've seen them 8 times, all with Terry Kath and they were pure musicianship magic. Terry Kath is a whole other discussion. Thank you.

[@hewjbacca]

Well havent seen them 8 times but have seen them a few times twice with the Beach Boys!! This song live goes on for like 30 min.!!!

[@CooT317]

Saw Chicago and Beach Boys in concert together in Chicago in the summer of’75. Actually still have the t shirt! Outstanding concert

[@tektoniks_architects]

Terry Kath....top 10 guitarist for me, all time.

[@shawnk7832]

Chicago Transit Authority with Terry Kath were the best band on the Planet! Peter Cetera, lead vocalist here is absolutely amazing and is always still on everything he's done to my ears even without Terry... The way Peter and Terry work the bass and lead guitars is better than anything 😁😁😁

[@shawnk7832]

Also Danny Seraphine is one of the best drummers of all time, and certainly sounds excellent in Chod's ears, we know!

[@danastearns7939]

Danny Seraphine, the drummer, is grossly underrated and under appreciated. amazing drummer. I still think you should react to "Questions 67 & 68" which is a focus on Peter Cetera's vocals and the horns. song goes through 3 tempo changes and written by trombonist James Pankow. Another nice song is "Dialogue parts 1 and 2"

[@IllumeEltanin]

💯 for both of these. Introduction as well, if it hasn't been reacted to yet. May as well start at the very beginning with the first track from the debut double album.

[@aandpman]

Cool fact about that album cover... it was printed by the American Bank Note Company. All the Ink on the outside has a raised texture. It feels just luxurious. Blessed to still have my original copy. :-)

[@buckyc.9069]

This song says, We tried. We failed. But we gave it our best shot, n guess what? Life goes on. Time to get over it, n get bak with living.

[@jimcochran1128]

When I was in the Ole Miss Marching Band in the early ‘70’s we did many Chicago songs at halftime.

[@paulf4802]

Welcome the world of genius music: CHICAGO!

[@johndoe-gt6gp]

Dee, in answer to your question, yes they are predominantly from Chicago. They originally call themselves Chicago Transit Authority. They put out one album under that name, which was a great album. But they were forced to change the name because the Chicago Transit Authority that managed buses, trains, ferries, airports etc for the city of Chicago threatened them with some kind of legal action if they didn’t. So they just shortened it to Chicago.

[@DanielFrost21]

Their original name was "The Big Thing"

[@mizladytaz]

This song, 25 or 6 to 4 and Saturday in the Park are probably my favorite Chicago songs, but I like many more. Chicago has such an easy, laid back sound.

[@kennethrussell1158]

Melissa, I'm 65 years old and it's great to see and hear these young people interested and reacting to these songs when I was their age. Although it does make me realize that I'm old👍🙏

[@mizladytaz]

@@kennethrussell1158 Indeed! I'll be 58 tomorrow! I raised my kids (now in their mid and late 30's) on music from my day, as well as the music my parents exposed me to, from their day. So, they are well rounded, musically! 😉

Legends! Its a feast for the ears ❤❤❤

[@jollyj3285]

You guys had extra extra great songs today...my favorite Jethro Tull...my favorite Supertramp, and my favorite Chicago!!!!

[@petepotaczek5844]

To have this many congealed musicians in a band each person must be totally in tune w/ each other. It’s impossible to imagine any groups in the future matching the musicianship of the classic rock ears!

[@waltw4537]

THuis song was popular when I was in college. Saw Chicago live at my college and they were tremendous. When traveling home on the NYS Thruway for various breaks, this song would come on the radio by a certain, every trip! Man, did I look forward for the energy of the finale of this tune. Thanks!

[@mark-be9mq]

Love it. Old Days would be my next Chicago suggestion.

[@Russ-gy7tx]

Chod, React to "Vehicle" by the group Ides of March, a Classic released in 1970. Popular with Marching bands back in the day and maybe today as well.

[@deborahcooper9085]

One of my top 70s band.

[@timgrady4630]

Completely compelling Chicago at the height of their Jazz Fusion/Funk groove : 1. Sing. A Mean Tune Kid . 2. What's This World Coming To .

[@ericredlefsen5554]

Based on the lyrics, I don't know that I would describe this as a happy song. It seems like more of an optimistic song about recovering from a bad break up. The music itself sounds uplifting and inspirational, largely due to the horns.

[@robleigh461]

Yeah, that's exactly right. Cetera wrote it when his marriage ended. It's a break-up song, but with the realization that life goes on, and he feels a little better as time goes on.

[@ronniemckinzie7982]

@@robleigh461 Did they even mention the lyrics? The music is great but there's a story in there!

[@debjorgo]

I'd recommend Dialogue Pts 1 & 2. Make sure you get the one with both parts.

[@johnfoster5295]

They are a large band, but remember 3 of the 7 are the horn section. And then the keyboards, bass, guitar and drums. And 3 of the members take turns on lead vocals. This one was sung by bassist Peter Cetera.

[@petemiller8296]

They are from Chicago! My first concert was when this song came out!

[@craigw1911]

Of the original seven members of Chicago, six of them were born and raised in the Chicago area. Keyboard player Robert Lamm was born in Brooklyn, NY and raised in Chicago. This song was written by Chicago's trombone player James Pankow and bass player Peter Cetera. It's a song about healing after the end of a relationship.

[@alonzocoyethea6148]

i don't know the name of Chicago's drummer, but in thier early LP's they gave him lots of room to show his chops, and he was bad azz on every song--"The drummer from hell", as the other band members jokingly called him.

[@bloppysloppy2283]

Danny Seraphine

[@pollynicklas5220]

I have this album! I played a binch of older Chicago songs in band in the seventies!

[@myownchannel247]

Danny Seraphine on drums! I couldn't think of better lyrics for a workout song

[@jimmoore8951]

You’re right about the vibe at the concert from this song. Saw them on their stadium tour with The Beach Boys and the sunshine, girls in bikini tops, and flying beach balls was definitely a vibe way back in the 70s.

[@arnoesco4889]

Look up “Leonid & friends” (Chicago tribute band) are amazing musicians from Russia. They play all the old Chicago music.

[@stephaniethurmer5370]

Yes they are from the Chicago area, If you like their brass section try a group called Chase

[@chrishickey7502]

Great reaction.

[@williamweiss6128]

Great album. And the other previous ones as well.

[@TheCashcrue]

This is one of the few songs I like by Chicago and that's just because I don't like many songs that have a whole brass section lol.

[@RockDocNeal]

Hey, great reaction, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen one of your videos. I’ve been a huge Chicago fan since I was a kid and I can remember laying on my bedroom floor listening to the entire Live From Carnegie Hall double album. I’m not sure if I mentioned this in one of your previous Chicago reaction videos, but I would highly recommend checking out some videos from the band Leonid and Friends. They’re a Russian band who mainly do covers of Chicago songs (ridiculously good covers), but they have also done some songs from other bands (Steely Dan, Tower of Power, Earth, Wind and Fire, Deep Purple, etc) and a couple originals. They were started by a Moscow producer/musician who’s been a huge Chicago fan since he was a kid. They do meticulous arrangements of the songs and the playing and singing is incredible. I just saw them play live in Massachusetts a couple months ago (I also them in 2019 during their first US tour) and they sound just as good live.

[@maryellenazack4466]

Wishing you were here-CHICAGO A TRUE GEM 💎 DEE WILL ❤️

[@OliverPeabody]

Just after the last refrain before going into the Feeling Stronger closing, there’s a deeply buried “Jumpin’ Jack Flash is a gas, gas, gas” at 4:22

[@shawnk7832]

Yes, formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1967. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_(band)

[@jeremyhodge6216]

This is a typical Chicago song 😁👌💯

[@edwardcrews2952]

Yes. From Chicago

[@markstanton2362]

Check out Blood, Sweat & Tears, band from the same era. A little lore funk, jazz and soul influenced.

[@improperbostonian6722]

The Power! House Band!

[@irenelopez7555]

❤️Chicago. Listen to “I’m A Man.”

[@angier5775]

I was in HS band, marching & orchestra - 2nd clarinet. We didn’t play this one, but we always did 25 or 6 to 4, from my soph yr in Fall of 72 to Fall 74. Good times! 🤩 You’ll understand when you hear it Chod! Take a listen to it 👍🏽

[@TheCashcrue]

Joe Montagna that starred in Criminal Minds and Godfather 3 was a part of the band before they became famous.

[@superlite177]

Good music is good music.

[@jimakcelik6486]

Next Chicago song "Does Anybody Know What Time It Is?

[@crsounddoctor4937]

Yes, they originated out of the city of Chicago...

[@rodger7029]

Great song construction

[@anselmoenning2304]

Super super Klasse Musik. 👌👍🤩😍😘😎

[@jflatty5389]

there's an actual video for this song- this was that in between their funk and love ballad stuff which this sort of is but isn't-

[@jfender8023]

React to the band Kansas - The Pinnacle live and Puya a Puerto Rican Metal band !!

[@daviddemar8749]

They are most definitely from Chicago .

[@commentatron]

The tempo and style match the title. Starts with slower tempo and bittersweet sound, slowly building in tempo to a triumphant, uplifting crescendo. The lyrics in the beginning foreshadow this by referring to a broken relationship in the past tense ('knowing you would have wanted it this way...').

[@allensaunders449]

There is Chicago with Terry and Chicago after. The with is great. After his death they stunk

[@chrishickey7502]

I wouldn't say stunk but they definitely lost their soul when Terry Kath died.

[@jonthomson8392]

can you do a reaction to Listen by Chicago

[@dagmar.6954]

I grew up with this great band from the 70's-80's. They were a rock & roll band with horns & blended elements of classical music, jazz, R&B, & pop music. They had a lot of great songs such as "Make Me Smile", "25 or 6 to 4", "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?", "Beginnings", "Questions 67 & 68", "I'm A Man", "Where Do We Go From Here?", "Free", "Lowdown", "Saturday In The Park", "Make Me Smile", "Colour My World", "Hard To Say I'm Sorry", "You're The Inspiration", "Will You Still Love Me?", "Look Away", "If You Leave Me Now", "Old Days" etc.

[@alvamarsh4290]

They were all at DePaul university except Robert lamm who was at Roosevelt University

[@timpeltier2901]

😁👍

[@Mary-cz8pf]

I don't know what you've reacted to. I love Hard to say I'm sorry, you're the inspiration, if you leave me now, and just you n me. I love ❤️ more than that, but those are what came to my mind

[@kevgret]

This song is actually about a divorce lol

[@johnnyd5285]

Your intro music is too loud. But I love your reactions.

[@TheWhanfried]

How does this compare with todays music. Yeh

[@uncnorseman2670]

Um, this is NOT a "happy" song... This is a keep going even though you are crushed song by losing whoever/whatever. Something we've all lived through to one degree or another.

[@vernhoke7730]

I hated this song, and 25 or 6 to 4, in high school. The music teacher was a big Chicago fan and hearing this at every assembly, pep rally, football and basketball ball game got old real fast.

[@ledsgar]

You should check out Leonid and Friends. It's a Russian band that mostly covers Chicago songs.

[@bkniker]

Chad, lose the raiders stuff DB4L

[@ndhudecz]

I play drums and wondering are you playing to that piece at the beginning. Your playing does not match music.I like the drum kit though. I have all clear 70's Ludwig set.

[@deborahanderson8682]

Well i try to give all reactors a chance and as soon as you turn off the song to talk constantly , Ill just move on. Very annoying. Why cant you react after the whole song plays ?
