Firefall - Cinderella (Live)

Firefall does not have to reach too deep to deliver this classic hit song to enchant a SOLD OUT New Hampshire audience.

[@wendyonstott8988]

This band was SO UNDERATED. So much takent.

[@oliveoil4380]

So good. I cried many tears as a child. I’m 60. Songs like this kept me going.

[@debbiephilbrick2628]

Me too!!!!!!!!!

[@mikesangster677]

Talk about an underrated group...they're barely recognized, for God's sake. And they're known (where they are) for a completely vanilla song (title to remain unnamed, but Firefall enthusiasts know whereof I speak). These guys put out some wonderful and touching (pigeon-hole time) country-rock songs in the late '70s. To this day, am amazed at the lack of recognition, but, unfortunately, they're not alone in this situation.

[@cirtapnageem5329]

I always wondered why they were not bigger than they were. A lot of people dont know who they are, until you name their songs....then they remember

[@newmanoutdoors1564]

Mike I agree .

[@kenperkins7921]

The SUPER 70S WERE SO CROWDED THAT A WHOLE LOT OF RELLY GREAT BANDS WERE.WER!E,ALMOST LOST IN THE MIX.JUST ASK MELENCAMP!

[@williamchristensen5937]

My girlfriend who just died… this was her favorite song.. she was a singer, and she used to watch these guys out there in Denver… sadly, I’ve never seen them… but she would go watch them every time they played

[@debbiephilbrick2628]

Me too!!!!!

[@poom641]

One of the most beautiful cold hearted songs ever created by anyone The song is gorgeous sounding

[@markopolo244]

Disagree. At the end he sings "you SHOULD HAVE took your love and your child away," His regret seems to be that maybe he was unable to provide "all the toys and the joys that a young man should have." Ambiguous? Maybe.

[@donclayton9232]

Great song.

[@StephanYourdam]

I was turned on to firefall in '76 by a close friend - fell in love with their music the moment I heard them - they had so much talent - it was love at first sound - Mexico - Cinderella - then Strange Way - what aband!

[@natalievanderson541]

My daughters father recently came back into her life after being absent for most part of 43 years! I said this song will forever remind me of you and played this song for him. He cried his eyes out! It’s says all that’s needed to be said!

[@layoung.]

You know how Hard it is to find an open comment for this song. There’s a reason for that. I find these things incredible. Woke up to much. She knew the meaning. . Beautifully done. Childhood love song. .

[@cirtapnageem5329]

You sing really well....

[@ronmounts8075]

Dyyyyyam I love this Song!!!! Reminds the great days in 70s as a teenager!!!!!!! Gonna learn this on my Guitar for Surrrrrrre!!!!!

[@jeffreythornton7695]

Unnerving song of application, the hurt and sorrow of knowing your child grew up without you, No replacing time, it doesn't slow, wait, or pass you, it is always there, it is up to how you choose to spend time, time can be costly misspent. Cinderella can even be an adult with a fantasy of love, but when it affects a child and tragedy of broken hearts, the child's broken heart is often unknown. This is a fantastic song;

[@jeffduggan387]

Awesome Performance by very talented musicians!

[@cirtapnageem5329]

I saw them when I was in college. Poussette-Dart and Poco were also there What a day!

[@alanbeckham9093]

Poussette-Dart Band ruled !!!!!!

[@Seminole-en6si]

I still listen to this song regularly. Excellent musicianship and storytelling.

[@richintalent]

It ain't 70s music without a flute. Firefall, Tull, Traffic, MTB...

[@richardgarrett5322]

Saw them warm-up for Doobie Brothers in the mid-70's in Minneapolis. This song has always haunted me, coming to mind often. Still trying to figure it out :)

[@debbiesims138]

That would have been a great concert.

[@markberryhill2715]

The song is haunting if you lived it from the wrong side.

[@speedracer1945]

I remember this song getting radio airtime and Just Remember I Love you and walked down to the record store and bought it in 77 .

[@debbiephilbrick2628]

Have ALWAYS Loved them!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@joybranch-londesborough6617]

A long time favourite song of mine. Forgotten to some but when remembered, all say "HEY, LOVE THAT SONG!" They sound fantastic. Very, very cool!

[@ronmounts8075]

Im with ya on that!!!!!! Brings back Grrrrrreart Memories for Sure!!!!!

[@mikenowicki5656]

Love this song and one of my favorite bands to play while camping!

[@Walkerlovevtbers]

Firefall Cinderella is my favorite song

[@jillnaples-mcloughlin4220]

I loved singing this w Rob Cadrain on many roadtrips!!!

[@joeh8268]

Whoever shot this did a great job! Lots of challenges to be dealt with, like the guy leaving his seat and walking right in front of you! lol. But the camera work was nice and steady and I loved how you panned over to show the flute player before he put his flute down and picked up his harmonica. Great two-shot of the two guitar players. So many videos that are shot from a concert seat are amateurish, but not this one. Great job! The sound quality is very impressive, too.

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

thanks for the lyrics. At 3:30, learned what he was singing in the studio version. He was wondered whether his son had all the things a boy should have.

[@williamhinerman9469]

Always loved this band and song!!!!

[@nonyabizz7327]

david muse is blowing the hell out of that flute and harp... he is a great guy .. he signed my guitar

[@cosmicgeek]

Did he blow you too? This song sure blows.

[@mattbartlett3964]

Damn I love this song!

[@janicerednour1933]

They will be at Indy state fair Fri, July 30! W Atlantic Rythem Section n Ileana! I'll be there!!

[@ronniehill6142]

I was fortunate to meet this band at Norfolk international airport the morning after there consert

[@glynisjones8128]

[@lindaweston4482]

One of the best songs ever. So beautiful, so sad.

[@michaelkelch3635]

Nice seeing Jock still has it. “FIREFALL” ……, when I play serious 70 & 80 Music ……, of course FIREFALL Stands at the TOP of the List.

[@pmwizard48]

Been one of my favorite groups

[@jasmynemorgan3277]

Great 70's song!

[@newmanoutdoors1564]

Firefalls best song .

[@SamOgilvieJr]

Cinderella Firefall Last December I met a girl She took a likin' to me Said she loved me But she didn't know the meaning of the word She imagined love to be grand Me holdin' her hand and Whisperin' sweet things and Cooin' softly like a song bird Then one mornin' she came to me With a tear in her eye and a Sigh on her breath Lord she said "Hon I'm heavy with child" I said "god damn girl can't you see That I'm breakin'my back Just tryin' to keep my head above water And it's turnin' me wild" Cinderella can't you see Don't want your company You better leave this mornin' leave today Take your love and your child away Rockin' chair on the front porch I'm thinkin' about all the things that I did As a young man Now that I'm old I remember her and the boy Did he have all the toys and the joys That a young man should have Before he gets too old Cinderella couldn't you see Didn't want your company Shoulda left that mornin' left that day Took your love and your child away Songwriters: Larry Burnett

[@markberryhill2715]

Reading the words makes it even more heartbreaking than real life (almost)

[@wendylecker6937]

👸still love this song👸

[@jamesgeorge1709]

They were GREAT

[@markvetter6330]

its a great song, just enjoy it...stop reading into it !

[@cosmicgeek]

It's not a great song. it's not a mediocre song. It's utter bullshit and the "artists" behind it have no balls. Only a twinkie would think otherwise.

[@steveglenn4736]

Gary Richard Haworth ..I said God Damn Gary can’t you see .. Mark’s not a Twinkie. I bet you eat ding dongs every day. Take a bag and flyyyy high high away eh hey hey.. do do do do yeah. Thank you thank you very much lol.

[@blackdoo]

EXCELLENT

[@joeforkin1044]

I was 24 when this song was aired and I loved the message....poor guy knocks up (cuz that's what he did) a girl and ends of staying with her; basically giving up his life. And then a funny thing happened when I was much older (39) and a full grown man; the message took on a whole other meaning: and that is: don't fall for his bullshit and don't "give it up" unless you're sure. Time is a great teacher and all we Dads can do is hope she'll listen. I still love the song; just hate the message.

[@kenperk9854]

Or maybe she was trying to rope him into marriage by getting pregnant. It happens all the time. We don't know which way they meant it.

[@Betty-ng3yq]

I think it's a beautiful song

[@johnfoster4244]

Terrific

[@markgardiner1767]

Awesome

Oh My God!

[@fableblue2010]

nice...

[@swami1]

Conflicting messages from this song...

[@DrHookedOnDrHook]

Not really.....when she first told him she was pregnant he told her to leave and take her child away. Later on the porch he's thinking about his life and he remembers her and the boy and the joys that a young man should have........and he reveals that she SHOULD have gone.......but she didn't. She stayed and together they raised the boy and gave him all the joys that he should have. Its a beautiful and moving love story, told from the prospective of an older, wiser man, thinking about his family. I cry every time. Side note....after my heart attack I sang this song to gauge my lung capacity.....no no no no no no no............no no no no no no no...,,..nooooooooooooooooooooo

[@makeupandmystery]

I feel like it's a pretty honest and realistic reaction to getting a girl unexpectedly pregnant, sung to this upbeat tune haha

[@howardliss1653]

Are people really getting mad because of a song story and lyrics? Get a life you sad sad people.

[@cosmicgeek]

Are you really that stupid that you would think a song such as this is "cool?"

[@cosmicgeek]

Are you really so daft that you do not understand the implications of this song? Only a person who has an absolute disregard for women could appreciate this song.

[@joybranch-londesborough6617]

@@cosmicgeek I'm a women. Have no issues with this song. It is true life for some. Not myself (amen) but it's just story telling ..with great music. Similar to Cats in the cradle

[@makeupandmystery]

@@joybranch-londesborough6617 I feel the same! It's realistic and you can feel the pain through the lyrics. I can't relate thank god, but there's something about this song that I just love

[@Mrcleanupman]

Happened to my sister, guy went back to California. She gave boy up for adoption. She died 2 years later. Recently the man now contacted us only to find my sister his mother died. I don't if he found anything about his father on Ancestry.

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

Beautiful song ... but I really hate the "guy in the song"

[@delimac59]

The only song better than this is Headed For a Fall!

[@leftywright6458]

Love the music of this tune. But I hate the misogyny. But that's just me.

[@driver75]

Drummer ruined it

[@scotabot7826]

I sure wish there was a version of this song where they Didn't take Gods name in vain. Just so, so terrible and unnecessary. I sure hope Larry Burnett regrets it.
