I grew up in the 70s. This song is a haunting memory. In a good way.

[@kenhayhurst374]

As for bands named after places, there is a band called "America". Some really cool tunes there. A band called "Europe" had a few hits. Then there was "Asia". Some called them the first 'super-group'. Kansas' entire album "Leftoverature" was great.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Boston of course, but let's not forget Black Oak Arkansas!

[@SWLinPHX]

The song makes you really realize how insignificant you and everything you do is in the long run. Even everything that happens in your life means little because it is just a nanosecond in time compared to the age of the planet and universe itself. Comparatively, the Earth itself is a speck in the universe. Such a beautiful and uplifting song.

[@trishdaniel6196]

KANSAS WAS A GREAT BAND....ENJOY!!!

[@bobguilda6884]

IS A GREAT BAND. Still rockin

[@bobdillashaw4360]

This song to me is the most beautiful rock ballad of all time 🎶🎵

[@antoinetteciserella]

This song was our 1978 high school graduation theme song. Tells you a lot about our fatalistic mentality about our future.

[@kimberlygarwood-jl5om]

This is my favorite song from Kansas. One of the greatest classic rock bands of the 70's.

[@vixybanker]

My dad was NO fan of Rock music. Although he would buy me albums for occasions. But somehow he heard this song and fell in love with it!!! Maybe it was our Catholic upbringing. "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..." He wanted it played at his funeral, but my sister refused and she was boss. She was his caregiver. So, in Italian/American tradition "Ave Maria" was sung.

[@surfersilver6610]

Ave Maria I can't believe she snuffed his last request like that, damn. Smh. *Note Ave Maria used here is equivalent to 'darn it' in speech vernacular in Latin circles, for those who've never heard it used that way before.

[@aldoushuxleysghost]

There's so much good music from Chicago. It's best to start with one of their first hits. 25 or 6 to 4 would be a good place to start. As far as Kansas goes, Point of Know Return would be a good listen

[@CharCanuck14]

The Tanglewood video of Chicago's 25 or 6 to 4 would be the best.

[@daveking9393]

Please understand there's kind of really two Chicago's the early Chicago had a lead guitarist named Terry Kath who is like no other and really gave the band a different kind of edge.. Don't get me wrong they still produce some fantastic music after Terry passed I actually have seen them live four times but was never lucky enough to see them with Terry and I have to tell you the music with Terry just blows away the other Chicago in my opinion

[@CharCanuck14]

The Tanglewood video would show all how Terry blew us away!

[@christinahilt2978]

Kansas is currently on tour with 2 of the original members and they are still amazing. Last song was released right before COVID shut down. They are one of my all time favorite bands.

[@RT-mn2pb]

This song always leaves a hauntingly beautiful echo and repeat in my mind. "All we are is dust in the wind".....

[@boblozaintherealworld3577]

these guys were really from Kansas and went to high school together. except for the lead singer....he was from St. Louis. And he fell down from some heaven. Thank you, MMB.

[@Bekka_Noyb]

Powerful song! ♥

[@daveking9393]

If you like violin solos in the middle of rock music Wait till you check out the band Jethro Tull and hear flute solos in the middle of rock tunes just phenomenal....

[@pushitlpvo]

Try.. The Gumbo Variations, Frank Zappa early stuff off Hot Rats. Holy. Shit.

[@cdfdesantis699]

Such a deep, moving song, perfectly accented by the haunting violin solo. Thanks for your reaction.

[@TheDivayenta]

His voice at the end is so beautiful! Steve Walsh is his name.

[@vincecantu2828]

Chicago's 25 or 6 two four should be your first song reaction by Chicago

[@steverobbins4872]

Chicago: the song is called "25 or 6 to 4"

[@terrybeasley5931]

No dancing girls, no fireworks and no auto tune. Just talent.

[@TexasMagnolia]

The beauty of all other Genres is the support and comradeary of Artists. No toxic competition.

[@steverobbins4872]

If you like classic rock with violin, I suggest ELO. Some of my favorite ELO songs: Shangri-La, Big Wheels, Show down. Also, check out one of their very early songs: Whisper in the Night.

[@clairerosen7634]

Big Wheels is so good. One of my personal faves is Wild West Hero. It just takes me away.

[@eileenmaryomalley740]

Kansas are musical geniuses. Kerry Livgren guitar and writer wrote Dust in the wind , Carry on Wayward son, and many other brilliant songs , Steve Walsh lead singer keyboards, drummer Phil Ehart founder of Kansas said Steve Walsh needs to be singing Kerry Livgren's songs, he paired them up man was he ever right ,Kansas is beloved world wide they filled stadiums across the world ❤️⚡

[@hibhibb5429]

Chicago "Saturday in the Park" would be a great place to start. Also "Hard To Say I'm Sorry" and "You're The Inspiration". They have a huge catalog. Kansas is Awesome! The only thing I dislike about Dust in the Wind is that it's not longer. I could listen to that violin for a very long time. Lol. I Love the violinist/singer Robby Steinhardt. Sadly, we lost him in July 2021. RIP Robby!

[@andreasmith6528]

This song is just simple and beautiful with deep lyrics. The end.

[@katnapper1966]

"And all your money won't another minute buy..." unforgettable lyrics

[@golden454]

Hope you're doing good tonight. Beautiful song, lots of love to you and yours. ☮️💜🤘

[@daveking9393]

Whatever song you do from Chicago you have to start off with the live performance at Tanglewood!!!! any song from that live performance is just phenomenal Please please do yourself a favor and watch the live performance from Tanglewood it's just phenomenal

[@maggieshevelew7579]

Chicago is such a great band. Sure, you can start with “25 or 6 to 4”, but to me, their masterpiece is “Beginnings”. And it MUST be the original full studio version. Live performances of it just don’t come close.

[@jayyoung5423]

My man... Boston is a city.,as well as Chicago...Kansas is a State... all good peace

[@suzanneprock7286]

You'll love Chicago, they had so many great songs, especially the early Chicago. That deep rabbit hole is worth going down. You have to realize that we had so many great bands in the 70's, you had to be perfect and even then, it was so very competitive!

[@mikemiller3069]

From Chicago, start with "Beginnings" of course. Then check out "Make Me Smile", "Saturday In The Park" and "Feeling Stronger Every Day".

[@williamjones6031]

Back in the day when this was hot for some reason Kansas NEVER played in Nebraska. I lived there so a buddy and I had to go to Red Rocks, CA(God's Cathedral). Very well worth the trip and a nice ride on a couple of Harleys with our girls. 600 miles round trip with roughly $1.00 gas I've seen them since then with the new band members in Reno (former Harrah's outdoor venue) in 2018. Still killin' it. I still have this LP./Album. Carry on Wayward Sun. Point of Know Return. "All your money won't another minute buy".

[@crazexskater]

Jethro Tull plays the flute, Ac/DC played bagpipes, and the Who also used the violen.

[@danbaranowski8580]

Chicago Must do their song 25 or 6 to 4, the live version at Tanglewood.

[@Jeffbambam]

Alabama, Boston, Chicago, Kansas all great bands in their Genre's I'd suggest "All I Need " by Chicago.

[@donnalong402]

Alabama's "Feels So Right" is strikingly beautiful.

[@jraben1065]

There are a lot of great Chicago songs. I would recomend you try the song "25 or 6 to 4". I like this theme "Bands named for Cities". Kansas "Dust In The Wind" was huge on the radio in 1976, even my Mom knew about this song. Meanwhile, I'm waiting for you to get back to The Who! It's past time for your third Who song. Find out if youre going to be a "Who fan"? The Who caused many musical transitions since 1965, they need more than just two or three reactions.

[@gems3604]

So happy you took the time to do some research and share it with the viewers. That elevated your entire reaction.

[@Crystal_Abbott-jn6xs]

America is a great band. A most noted song is “Horse with no name”. Do check them out. Saw them at Red Rocks with Yes. Amazing!!!

[@davidbordonaro1631]

Beginnings , by Chicago , would be a good beginning .

[@wendymartin4892]

Beautiful in a sad sort of way, and yet strangely comforting 😌

[@pamscites3515]

Grew up listening to this music. Thank you!

[@dow311]

Alabama (any song), Atlantic Rhythm Section (So Into You), Miami Sound Machine (Rhythm Is Gonna Get You), Georgia Satellites (Keep Your Hands To Yourself), Kentucky Headhunters, Orleans (Still the One),

[@scottwilson7835]

Tons of emotion on the track, Travesty. There's a classic band named "Orleans", from the 70's. Had several hits.

[@ronaldelliott4373]

Do yourself a favor a drop in on Kansas’ debut album. I would recommend the last track first, called “Death Of Mother Nature Suite.” This band was fire right out of the box. Regards 🤘

[@thomasroutte8942]

I enjoy your reaction video’s so much You have more taste in music than most people your age!!!

[@gpxo11]

An obscure violin/symphony solo in a rock song would be Deep Purple's April. Refresher- Gold 500,00 units sold-Platinum one million-double platinum 2 to 9 million. Diamond certification is the top with 10 million plus.

[@eemanuel4655]

Chicago.. 25 or 6 to 4.. studio is best, but live is awesome.. a song good enough to do both versions back to back.

[@RealTechZen]

“Chicago” began as a band called “Chicago Transit Authority”. What about “Blood, Sweat and Tears”? What about “Three Dog Night”? “The Moody Blues”? “Emerson, Lake and Palmer”? “Earth, Wind and Fire”? “Jefferson Airplane”? What about the first mixed gender and mixed race band ever to chart in the Billboard 100, “Sly and the Family Stone”?

[@talltulip]

Since you like bands that are known for their beautiful harmonies, be sure check out Crosby, Stills & Nash (also Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young). Another group with amazing harmonies is the Bee Gees (recommended song: Too Much Heaven).

[@sandrastorer5628]

The violin duet I believe was played by a member or members of the band. That reminded me that many 70's rock artists were actually classically trained, particularly keyboard players. I think the first Biblical reference is from Ecclesiastes ( pronounced E - clee- zee- AS - tees), written by King Soloimon.

[@PhatFreddysCat]

One of my all time favorites (and Im a hard rock gal) 😍🇺🇸

[@stevedahlberg8680]

They had great album covers in general. And really you should do the title track from this album, also a huge hit and just a fantastic song. It's so cool, and it's got the harmonies that you like but it's really Up Tempo with a lot of organ and the story is amazing. And it gets it a wayward son in a way almost like a different look at the character in that other song, and this person has left his family and his friends and his home he's going to push it and he's from the age back where they believe the Earth was flat and that at some point where all the oceans poured off the edge of the earth, that's where the worst monsters work that have done in ships and crew and his family is really worrying about him. It's a perfect allegory for a lot of things. As far as chicago, most people would probably tell you that 25 or 6 to 4 would be the Gateway and I probably agree. But the early stuff in particular is just mind blowing. They damn well deserve to be Chicago and in fact they're very first name of their band on their first album was Chicago Transit authority. And then they shortened it to chicago. Saturday in the park, feeling stronger every day, smile, these are all songs that you would totally dig in there are a whole lot more.

[@deannacrownover3]

I would suggest "Saturday in the Park" as your first Chicago track. It's a feel good track! Edit: Baby, you've blown a speaker.

[@kelliatlarge]

There are 2 really distinct eras to Chicago, so you really have to be mindful of which one you're working with. My personal favorite is an early one -- Feelin' Stronger Every Day

[@ronbeck201]

Another band named after a state, Missouri and their song " Movin' on".

[@R.POWELL]

Great reaction !! 👍 POINT OF TO RETURN is another good one from KANSAS .

[@patriciawaring]

“25 or 6 to 4” should be your first adventure into Chicago. Later stuff is good, but more commercial. Thank you!🤍

[@MollieC-uc1fk]

The outside stuff doesn't matter, it's the inside stuff that does that carries over to everyone you love while here. How we love and treat others matters so much more than outside things that mean nothing when it's all said and done. And that is what is changing here now if y'all are paying attention...this earth has been so low frequency is was totally focused on material things and ego based lifestyles that is going to change.

[@stellamorgan482]

Ist song from Chicago should be "25 or 6 to 4" (studio version). Seriously Kansas, Boston & Chicago are all incredible bands & you should definitely go down the rabbit hole for all 3!

[@jonathansmith3742]

All your money won't another minute buy. Great lyric.

[@joecampbell2496]

CHICAGO has a 50 year catalog that you won’t believe. Each decade CHICAGO kept reinventing themselves, to the delight of literally billions of fans alive or not. Love BOSTON. Love KANSAS. But CHICAGO produced 100x the amount of music than the other two combined. Love CHICAGO, but your first introduction should be “MAKE ME SMILE” which is early CHICAGO (1968?), with earliest lead vocals. All soul. Peter Cetera was the lead singer from the late 70s through 2000s. He was much higher in voice, but also provided the high background vocals early on.

[@trishdaniel6196]

YOU ARE GOING TO GO CRAZY OVER CHICAGO!!!!!!

[@tdoheron]

Early Chicago is the best (25 or 6 to 4......)

[@Trilingualeks]

I have a suggestion - since you listened to Cream, and you're kind of on this classic rock journey, you should listen to Layla by Derek and the Dominoes - let it sink in, and then the following episode do Clapton's unplugged version of Layla (from the unplugged album - where you can hear the audience in the recording). Two VERY distinct versions that just live independently of each other. PLEASE!!

[@RealTechZen]

As for this song: Go to the Bazaar Cattle Pens, on the side of I-35, the Kansas Turnpike, just before midnight on the night of a summer solstice, and play a recording of “Dust in the Wind” by the group Kansas, nice & loud. You'll never get the experience out of your head.

[@scottjswenson]

If you like violin solos AND bands from Kansas, you have to listen to Shooting Star. They got screwed by the industry and should have been much bigger than they ended up. Prime cuts are Last Chance, Hang On for You Life, and Flesh and Blood. Definitely worth checking out.

[@Thebestaustin-d8f]

Chicago is a huge rabbit hole! Trust me!

[@marthalikens482]

Where has all the music gone... long time passing.

[@TerryKrysinski]

If you react to anything else from the first seven Kansas albums--you will be thoroughly amazed. Can't pinpoint songs because it's all fabulous! Dive in...T

[@r8rRodzilla]

Maybe a little off topic, and this band is a different genre and later era, "Better Than Ezra" came up with their name in a very unique way. At a battle of the bands , where I believe all the bands were competing with some kind of monetary prize, they ran into a band with the same name as theirs, which at the time was Ezra! Well they ended up winning the battle and changed their name to "Better Than Ezra" because of course they were better than the other band with the same name. Hope I didn't waste anyone's time lol but kool story imho have a great one people!

[@scottdebruyn7038]

If you play guitar at all (acoustic or electric), learn this song! I can't pick up a guitar without at least playing that intro. 😁

[@Vattenballong128]

I know I'm a bit late but, if you want to react to more Kansas I'd recommend the song "Song For America" or "The Wall". Both are phenomenal. Have a great day!

[@donaldatherton319]

You are 100% correct. It’s very presumptuous to name yourself Boston,Kansas or Chicago. You better be very very good.

[@Hobodeluxe960]

next up Atlanta Rhythm Section " Champagne Jam" "Spooky, So Into You, Georgia Rhythm, Back Up Against The Wall, Imaginary Lover,

[@marcuseisen11]

25 and 6 to 4 from Chicago for sure.

[@holgerschussler9107]

Alabama,Black Oak Arkansas are a couple others.

[@surfersilver6610]

🎶"Dust in the wind, all reactors are dust in the wind"🎶😫

[@donaldwillis2267]

I recommend anything from Tanglewood

[@roccaclassico9028]

You should do a deeper dive into the "Kansas" catalog; you'll be amazed at how good they are. I recommend: "Song for America", "The Wall", "Icarus (Borne On Wings of Steel)", "Miracles Out of Nowhere", and "Child of Innocence".

[@cassbumk3565]

One one the best country bands is Alabama

[@sourisvoleur4854]

Chicago: first song should be 25 or 6 to 4, the live version 1970 Tanglewood.

[@johnbelcher2323]

Another song from the album…Sparks of the Tempest

[@Abri412]

I would be very interested in what you would make of "Hold the Line" by Toto.

[@libertyresearch-iu4fy]

There are bands named after continents: America, Asia, and Europe. Another state: Alabama.

[@keithetherington4824]

Chicago, Make Me Smile

[@michaelasay8587]

Yry Katen Carpenter bro, she was the no. 1 female singer in the 70s and all time the best...as far as im concerned.

[@pepperprovasnik]

Im always suprised african Americans haven't covered that song. Its already beautiful song, an African American voice would be amazing in this song

[@Killvoid13]

"Your my boy Blue"

[@charlesscott8357]

The book of Ecclesiastes develops this theme throughout.

[@quellenathanar]

Other bands in the genre you may like: STYX, REO Speed Wagon.

[@Lixallot]

Kansas touched on the futility of human existence. And no other band pin pointed the finality of it.

[@Drahculia]

This song reminds me of the video / song "Everything Dies" by Type O Negative. Maybe you might react to that video?

[@SWLinPHX]

Man, I love all three bands a lot. But the truth is Chicago has like four times as many hits as Boston and Kansas combined!

[@coreyrees840]

25 or 6 to 4 is definitely the pace to start with Chicago

[@SWLinPHX]

1:35 What until he finds out there's a famous band called America, not to mention Asia and Europe, LOL.

[@farmhome904]

Let us not forget Alabama. Country group that a lot of non country fans liked.

[@terriertz5134]

I want this song played at my funeral.

[@richardmartinez6057]

GOD brought us to earth 🌎 from dust are spirit leaves but are body returns to dust 🤔🙏☝️

[@philgrody3681]

Like harmony ? CSN !!! Nuff Said .

[@TexasMagnolia]

Next….Point of No Return!
