    I'm using my daughter's comment box tonight. I was in high school when this song came out and it became my anthem as the war on drugs went on within me. I think it was on a John Kay album. It's Never Too Late came to mind tonight and I realize the "war" is over 44 years old yet it still encourages me. I also found Savoy Brown's "Tell Mama." When I come across songs that spoke to me in my youth, no matter what happened, it is like an old friend --- its a happy feeling to be reunited.

    A great song from one of the most under-rated bands ever. I grew up on their messages. Their lyrics actually had meaning. And the music was second to none. Great band.

    Did not know he was legally blind as they were my favorite band then and very underrated. Always loved the way they just kept grinding out the same great music album after album. Was supposed to see them in 71, but a huge snowstorm made almost all traffic come to a standstill. So I was never able to see them.

  • @Mojave888
    @Mojave888 13 років тому +3

    @murphrey Actually, John Kay, a German, was a baby during World War Two (Born in 1944). When the Soviets were overrunning Eastern Germany on their drive to Berlin his mother fled westward with him in severe winter conditions. They settled in Arnstadt, which became part of Soviet controlled East Germany. In 1948 they escaped from East Germany, to Hanover West Germany (as recounted in his song "Renegade" on the album Steppenwolf Seven). I've seen John several times in concert. Great guy.

    The ultimate sixties song, I don't care anything about John Kays history really, I just know him and his crew were some very insightful writers, one of my all time favorites, ever!!! They frigging wrote the theme song for Easyrider which pretty much was the anthem for the whole sixties counter-culture. Snow Blind Friend is my favorite though!!! Great job on the slide show!!!

    Yes, lyrics so full of the truth that it makes you uneasy at first, then realize how brilliant John Kay and Steppenwolf really were with songs like this. Beautiful and meaningful music to make you think and reeducate yourself. College/University degrees hanging on the wall? Bull. How you treat your friends is worth everything.

    The "Thinking Man's Band" as they were referred to way back . . . ooh, so good! Love that intense, high-minded love and emotion. Of course, like Hesse's Steppenwolf (Herman Haller), they also had a taste for something akin to S & M sometimes -- (think of the lyrics to "Ball Crusher" on Steppenwolf 7) -- what a Tantric band! "Transcending via the senses to infinite compassion and love." (Or something along those lines!). Wish I could do that! :-D

  • @JustThePretender
    @JustThePretender 8 років тому +6

    The message in this song is (1:) So basic and simple, (2 :) So powerful and beautiful, (3:) So lifesaving and true... and I'm fairly certain that I've only touched the surface. Even without one taking the words to heart, my personal opinion is that (if it needs to be "pigeonholed") it's one of the best blues-rock-folk-inspirational songs ever conceived and performed - possibly even getting through to people on the verge of "eating a 44 caliber lunch". And even though I'll get "crucified" for my thoughts regarding the comments here, one of the biggest problems dividing mankind is religion - they mostly all focus on "If you have different beliefs, then you are wrong and going to Hell". Though I was raised a Christian (and still love them) I can no longer worship Christ. I focus now on my believe in GOD and *spirituality*, and realize that I cannot tell you or anyone else who/what/which is "right". Anyway, this masterpiece and Steppenwolf are both great & greatly underrated. Love, peace, and rock 'n' roll my friends!

    • @tracyraper7316
      @tracyraper7316 8 років тому +3

      Sad that you have abandoned the only true God, Jesus Christ. Though you claim to have been raised a Christian it appears you haven't studied or just plain don't understand the word of God. I challenge you to study the book of Revelation. You will find that the deception that you are suffering from was clearly predicted over 2000 years ago. Also, the current condition on planet earth was foretold as well. satan is the greatest liar in the history of time, he was created by God and was given far greater intelligence than we humans possess. he doesn't fabricate simple easily detectable lies. All other religions other than Christianity are simply intricate well thought deceptions to steer humans into hell. I am not judging you, I simply care about your eternal disposition. God allows free will for humans, if you choose to reject the only true God, Jesus Christ, he will honor your decision and allow you to spend eternity in hell with satan and the other fallen angels. I too am a fan of Steppenwolf. If you have never heard the song "from here to there eventually" , please give it a listen. The song discusses false religion and states that the true God, Jesus Christ, will return and that we "better be ready for his return". GOD Bless you in JESUS mighty name!

    • @SymeonPhronema
      @SymeonPhronema 8 років тому +2

      Brother you're correct on so many levels, except one. It was never meant to be "you don't believe in Christ, you're going to hell". Gods love is Eternal. God is love. When we reach the gates of Death, that love will either feel good to you, or torment you. Whether it feels good or not to you would be determined by the type of person you are and your actions here in this life. That's the teaching of the Eastern Orthodox Church, unchanged in its thinking since the time of Christ and the Apostles. The first version of Christianity, if you will. Check it out brother, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    • @JustThePretender
      @JustThePretender 8 років тому +3

      When I wrote the comment I fully expected, as noted within, that I would receive replies such as I have. I will not challenge any of these opinions, nor the thoughts of anyone else's. One of the most important lessons God has taught me was to keep my mind open. Although I might not follow Jesus as such, I shall gladly walk beside Jesus to and through God's kingdom be I so fortuned to have God's blessing. Again, I realize I've opened that same door to get more comments from those that believe differently and again I pledge I shall not challenge their thoughts and beliefs - so may I ask the same courtesies in return, and perhaps pray that we all are able to walk together? I wish to comment of our differences no more when we should instead be praying and doing for those that really need it the most. Thank you to those who will respect this request, and love and peace to all.

    • @maggierezac5820
      @maggierezac5820 8 років тому

      JustThePretender, thank you for your well thought out words & opinions. I, too, am a Christian & when asked if I'm "Religious" I vehemently deny that, as it connotes silliness like certain rituals that even Jesus said many times were 'lame' {my paraphrase}!
      Like you, I refer to myself as a Spiritual Person & so far, God hasn't struck me down with a bolt of lightning or a plague of boils! What an interesting conversation thread has become of this great band of long ago!
      I am a bit confused when you say 'I might not follow Jesus as such,' yet you conclude your comments with the words Peace & Love...which is exactly what Jesus is all about! {sic} 'The Greatest Commandment'. As for people who state that so many wars have been fought about 'religion', that is absolutely historically accurate! Or oil...
      Did I just say that out loud? ;-)
      Hugs friend & God Bless Us One & All!

    This is The Steppenwolf. They are canadian germans and liked a man called herbert hesse who wrote a long and boring book. This song is mainly about dislike for things. I think a negative song yes? As for our lord and saviour Jesus Christ, well I heard he wasn't all that and frankly was a bit of a show off. He also wasted a resurrection by basically going to heaven. Which he would have done anyway. Another case of showboating perhaps?

      jackcarter71 Wow man you think this is negative. And how did you come to believe Christ was a show off? Did you meet someone that actually walked with Jesus on this Earth? Seriously I would like to know. Christ is our only hope. Did he show off when He was being tortured and beat and hung on the cross for you. Christ and this song is nothing but positive and true. Everyone may get something different from this song. If you listen to all of Steppenwolfs songs there are so many songs about love and positive reinforcement. Listen to every song on the For Ladies Only LP and maybe that will open your eyes. I wish you the best and may God bless you and yours.

      Kurt Sherrick .....Obviously I didn't meet anyone who walked the earth with Jesus. They would be about 300 years old.
      However, my studies indicate that someone who pretended to be God's son, was in all likelihood nothing more than a mentalist.
      As for showing off.....turning water into wine. Come on Kurtz.

      Herman, not Herbert. OUR lord? not mine. Get out of fantasy land. Und this is a very positive song. Jack, Jack, Jack, you must be from another planet. Everything you wrote is
      erroneous. WTF?

    The message in this song is (1:) So basic and simple, (2 :) So powerful and beautiful, (3:) So lifesaving and true... and I'm fairly certain that I've only touched the surface. Even without one taking the words to heart, my personal opinion is that (if it needs to be "pigeonholed") it's one of the best blues-rock-folk-inspirational songs ever conceived and performed - possibly even getting through to people on the verge of "eating a 44 caliber lunch". And even though I'll get "crucified" for my thoughts regarding the comments here, one of the biggest problems dividing mankind is religion - they mostly all focus on "If you have different beliefs, then you are wrong and going to Hell". Though I was raised a Christian (and still love them) I can no longer worship Christ. I focus now on my believe in GOD and *spirituality*, and realize that I cannot tell you or anyone else who/what/which is "right". Anyway, this masterpiece and Steppenwolf are both great & greatly underrated. Love, peace, and rock 'n' roll my friends!
