Rod Stewart - Maggie May (1971)

Maggie May was Rod Stewart's first big hit as a solo performer. The song went to #1 in the UK Singles Chart in October 1971, and at the same time topped the charts in Australia, Canada, and the US.

[@ron6653]

It's 2024, I'm 63 now and this is one of the greatest songs in my lifetime.

[@stevenrobert8567]

Rod is truly great. Stairway to Heaven is one of my most loved songs. Nothing greater than a song that lasts decade after decade. It was a fun time, wish I could go back. Today, is a mess compared to then. Our once sweet country is gone.

[@wakeupherewego7245]

Me too. I like most of his songs, almost all, and it was so nice the 80's ( I know he started in 70's) but the 80's are the top still are...and this singer knew how to go older very well, he really is one rare that looks super, for his age and no plastics, or not exagerated which seems to be a problem, for others. They do so many and start at such younger age, that when they reach 50 the face looks horrible instead of nice.

When I was pregnant with my daughter, this song always came up on the drive to work, and she would kick kick kick in the womb. When she was born, knowing then we had an hour, maybe two before she would die, we played this song to her. It’s Sophie’s song. She died of a complex heart condition in September 2020 and the line “you stole my heart and that’s what really hurts” really connects us to the song. I cry whenever this is played.

That being said at Daniel 2:1 those asleep in the dust of the earth will wake up Romans 4:17 God makes the Dead Alive acts 24:15 there is going to be a resurrection. So our almighty God has given us the scriptures to assure us of better times to come for instance Ecclesiastes 1:4 the Earth remains forever Isaiah 65:25 the lion will eat straw just like the bull.

"Maggie May" is more than just another song; it holds a sentimental place in my heart. The nostalgic opening guitar riff, coupled with Rod Stewart's soulful vocals, transports me back to the carefree days of my youth. The lyrics perfectly capture the unrequited love and coming-of-age experiences that many of us can relate to. This song showcases Rod Stewart's undeniable talent. The combination of his raspy yet melodic voice, the energetic guitar solos, and the infectious rhythm creates an unforgettable listening experience. The folk-inspired melodies seamlessly blend with rock elements, making "Maggie May" a true masterpiece of musical craftsmanship.

BEST DAYS EVER.

[@Justagirlnamedshawn]

This song makes me a little sad. My parents separated, i was 6 years old, and my Dad moved into this tiny little apartment while they tried to work things out. Me and my siblings and I would go see my Dad there. He was playing this song. I was so sad for my Dad, not for me, for my Dad because I wanted him home & I know he wanted to be home. I remember like it was yesterday.😢 i miss you, Dad & thanks for loving me. ~Shawn Rest Easy. 🕊☮️✌️

To think that Rod never thought this song would be a hit. It was the B side of a 45 he put out. Some DJ in Cleveland thought the tune was really good and started playing it, another DJ in Chicago heard that it was being requested heavily in Cleveland so he gave it a try on the Chicago radio station, the requests took off like lightning! It swept the nation and the world!
