This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

@jamesrawlins735 3 ай бұрын

To think that Kerry Livgren (who wrote it - it started as a exercise so he could learn fingerpicking) didn't want to play it for Kansas because he wasn't sure they would even want to do this type of song. After he played it for the other members of Kansas, they sat in silence and asked, "Kerry, where has this been?"

This is actually a heavy song lyrically, it’s about how so many things we wrap our lives up with don’t mean anything in the grand scheme of things. The line that’s so powerful to me is all your money won’t another minute buy.

This song began as a fingerpicking exercise, Kerry Livgren (Blonde Guitarist) wanted to work on that particular technique so he came up with this melody. His wife heard him playing it and suggested he make a song out of it. So, what started out as a fingerpicking exercise became their biggest hit, Kerry Livgren was incredibly prolific in the 70s, he's an amazing songwriter. Great reaction!

Great reaction Aaliyah! The members of Kansas, like many bands in the 70's and 80's, were so talented. Many could play more than one instrument and many were good vocalists as well as instrumentalists. Most of their careers were spent performing live on tours and at events. An era when talent, not technology, reigned supreme!

On the day this song was recorded Steve Walsh was probably the best vocalist (of this genre) in the world. Well done Steve, Kansas.

2 ай бұрын

In his prime, Steve Walsh was one of the best voices in rock. This song started as a finger-picking exercise for Kerry Livgren. His wife suggested he turn it into a song and a classic was born. I get chills every time I hear it and I am old enough to remember when this song was released.

Hi Aaliyah I'm Tim a 66 year old musician and have been involved in music since I was 15. of course this song is great & "Cary on Wayward Son" is also. I have been into 1920s through the 2000s music and it's can be musically soothing or heart pumping, it can depend on your mood

Back in the day when they were touring this album, for some reason Kansas NEVER played in Nebraska. I lived there so a buddy and I had to go to Red Rocks (Colorado/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) 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".

@stevedahlberg8680 3 ай бұрын

Oh I bet you would love more Kansas songs, and they had a lot of hits and some really Innovative material. But they really knew how to rock as well. "Point of No Return" from their iconic Point of Know Return album. Fantastic story and well composed Song and more incredible singing. So good. It was a huge hit. "He Knew" is a great little banger, another hit, and it's about Leonardo da Vinci of all things!

You can see it in your face the respect you have for music no matter what genre it is. 70s classic rock had so much talent and freedom to write what they wanted to not what the record company wanted. Maybe one day you can react to Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven album version.

Aaliya, given that you mentioned that you like modern music with classical elements you might check out the group Renaissance. They are a British progrock band from the 1970s with American lead singer Annie Haslam who had a crystal clear five-octave voice. They combined elements of classical, rock, folk, and jazz influences. Three of my favorite Renaissance songs include Ashes Are Burning, Mother Russia, and Carpet of the Sun

Aaliyah, check out a singer named Laura Nyro. She had an amazing voice as well as piano and songwriting skills. In one verse she'll sound like the most soulful R&B singer and then she'll hit operatic notes that could shatter glass. I recommend "Eli's Coming" "Stoned Soul Picnic" or the live TV version of "Save The Country".

@rogerdodger6025 3 ай бұрын

Aaliyah, you should react to more songs in the Progressive Rock genre. It fits in well with your Operatic/Classical training as many of the musicians have classical and operatic training as well and mixed it with the energy of Rock.

The band Shooting Star from Kansas City also features a violinist. My favorite song is “Flesh and Blood”. Their song, “Last Chance”, from their 1980 debut album shot to #1 in the United States in radio play but due to infighting between their record company Virgin and their distribution Atlantic Records, they had ZERO records in the stores! They got totally screwed by their record company! Links below. These are EPIC songs! You will not be disappointed. I promise. 😊 “Flesh and Blood” kzbin.info/www/bejne/boi4lWmqrtmipLcsi=obOlDsAQzg5tLEG9 “Last Chance” kzbin.info/www/bejne/omaloqOsmLyor9Esi=IYnbIUoxA46HCmF6
