Logical Song is one of the most perfect pop songs of all time, it hasn't lost a fibre of substance or soulfulness in all these years

[@OneGuitarist]

It really is perfect. This is one of those perfect songs you can't beat. You can do something different and also perfect, but you'll never top this song.

[@johngrunwell6101]

Not a huge Supertramp fan, in terms of their whole body of work, but when this song, or "Goodbye, Stranger" come one the radio I'm filled with true joy.

[@Marchaund]

This video proves great songs come from great minds pondering great ideas. Supertramp has always been the No. 1 existential guidepost in my life coming from the world of Rock HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Logical Song was my Zen meditation tool before I even truly caught on to the need to meditate on God and the meaning of life. If only people understood how significant the philosophy of the life of Rock is. Rock is NOT something from outside God's universe but definitely His own substance unarguably. Just as its mother the Blues is it is MEDICINAL. But unfortunately it is misused........ just as most good things are.

The Logical Song pretty much explains all of our problems. When I was kid hearing this brought tears to my eyes because I realized I wasn't crazy and I wasn't alone in all of this.

[@malkytrance]

@Red Nexican LOL

[@steelyman08]

It's been helping me in the same way as an adult for decades. I know exactly what you mean by "crazy" and it's really tough to be torn between those two worlds inside of yourself. One is only held together by yourself and a few singers or writers, etc, who echo the things that you're seeing and feeling on the deepest level. The other is the false, performing you that's supported by an entire society of others behaving and acting in a likewise manner (mostly unconsciously). You doubt your own consciousness (intuition) because it gets such minimal support. But the unconscious performing you has the entire society backing it up because that's the way we're supposed to be in order for this clockwork horror to keep ticking along, ensuring that the one-eyed man remains king!

Those that never spent time and energy researching real history, have never connected to reality. Ruling class controlled schools, TV, movies, etc, will never connect you with the truth. Truth seeking is a individual thing that no one will support you in doing. Only mocking, putdowns by people that are very afraid of what they may learn talking to you.

This song reminds me of my childhood and when I was older and understand the lyrics, I realised it was about my life. My mother screaming I had to be realistic and not a dreamer, that I should learn at school, and not just staring out of the window in my schoolclass. That I had to stop dreaming and fantasising, but be rational and for Gods sake study for a job to earn a living. My parents were desperate that I never find a job. So I did my best, with ups and lots of downs, learnt to be a nurse, earnt money, got realistic and wasnt feeling happy at all. Long story short, I couldn’t work anymore as a nurse because of a disease, and finally find my old self again. Now I dance, I sing, I sell my art and feel that that is who I am.

Placed with a French family there, along with two "french brothers" I had a 21 year old drop dead gorgeous "sister" who played Breakfast in America over and over for the seeming few minutes she spent at home. Upon returning to the States first thing I did was buy that album and play it over and over... for many years.

I was also really getting into bands like Rush, Yes, etc. and got my first guitar on Christmas 1980. Roger still sounds amazing, and it's nice to hear about his inspiration for writing these songs.

Late 1980s, I had to take an ethics course as part of engineering studies. I enjoyed the course. The final time we had class was kind of laid back. During this last class, the teacher played "The Logical Song" during the final class, that stuck in my memory. The ethics class was a good compliment to our studies, it meant something. I wish more people had the opportunity to take, and learn from, an ethics course. Somehow that thread winds back to the innocence of youth.

Roger, I can't say it strongly enough, THANK YOU! You're such an amazing person with extreme talent. You're so obviously soul & spirit-focused, alive in your heart, and soul-driven enough to bring all of us along for the ride. We can feel your soul with each new song, each new verse. You unburden my soul so many times with a simple piece of vinal and your pure searching heart. Peace to you my friend. It's been an absolute honor to have you in my life. I'll still be singing and tapping my toes to these songs even in my casket. They say on the other side there's no space between us. Till we meet then my friend, meet on the other side.👽

Logical Song is such an underrated song, just like the band that made it.

One of the defining songs of the late '70s, always loved "The Logical Song" from the day I first heard it.
