As a die hard Boston fan, I’ve always been interested in and followed the group’s former band members as they pursued music outside of Boston. Barry Goudreau released his first solo album in 1980, with Brad Delp and Fran Cosmo on vocals. He pursued his solo album because Tom Scholz wouldn’t include any of the songs written by Barry in Boston’s repertoire. The relative success of Barry’s solo album triggered Tom Scholz to fire Barry. He then went on to form Orion the Hunter in 1984 with Fran on vocals. In 1990, he formed RTZ with Brad on vocals. Barry, Brad and Fran produced some great music outside of Boston, which never really got the recognition it deserved.
This is very interesting - thank you very much for the information. So, to me it looks like Mr. Scholz is somewhat vain... Anyway, I like both of them: Boston AND Orion. And I will look for Barry Goudreau's first solo album (1980) that you mentioned. Many thanx for the hint!
You had your facts correct until you got to RTZ. Barry formed RTZ in 1985/86 and utilized 2 singers at different times (one being Fergie Fredrickson from Toto) before Brad quit Boston and joined in 1990.
The beautiful soaring vocal styles of singers like Fran Cosmo and Brad Delp were smothered to extinction by bands like Nirvana, who didn't care for virtuosity and wanted to take music "back to the garage". Once Grunge took over, all these beautiful 80s rock vocalists were pushed underground, their power-vocal styles driven out of fashion.
I met and spoke with Fran Cosmo in 2019 at a festival his band were playing at. He was down to earth and spoke about singing for Boston and Orion The Hunter.
The more I watch this video the more I appreciate the high quality of the cinematography and the performances. The song just kicks @$$! Those vocal harmonies with the Rockman saturated power chords! Forget about it! It just does not get better than that. This should have received much more airplay on MTV. I watched MTV all the time when this was out and never saw it once. On top of that, the song didn't get played in the midwestern US market. So, I get to discover it now. Rock on people!!
I'm 53 just found this tune and loving it. Can't believe I missed it growing up in the 80's. I then checked the story on the band and said yes good talent will usually put out good music.
back in the day i heard this song twice the dj never said who the band was but thanks to youtube and today technology we can in someway go back the best years cause these times really Suck...
It was the same for me! Until right now all they way back to 84 I finally found the name and artist to this song I had in my head all these years and it not really all that good but I loved it in the day never forgot it
"Dorky" - fing someone producing this music today or even in the 90's or past that time. The "dorks" are the ones trying to emulate musicians today and people like you lablelling the 80's rock stars as such! LOL!
I remember when this was released and I heard on the FM radio as a teenager. At first I thought it was a new Boston song preceding a new Boston record. I didn't know Goodreau (and the rest of the band for that matter) was no longer in Boston. Yes, this was pre-Internet, people. I thought it was pretty cool that Heart's Micheal DeRossier was the drummer. The whole album kicks ass.
I was exactly the same in my thoughts back then when I was like 16. I remember thinking "this has got to be Boston or at least a good chunk of the band under a different name". I did remember even then hearing that that they were in legal battles, so assumed OTH was a temporary remedy. I was partly right...😉👍🤘
The other guitarist is Fran Cosmo who ended up doing a stint with Boston as the vocalist on Walk On and stayed on through Corporate America which also featured his son, Anthony.
@Chris - AOR consumer #8733 Not really. Just Goudreau. Delp only did a few backup vocals. I originally thought Fran Cosmo was Fran Sheehan without the mustache, but I was wrong about that.
I remember barrowing this cassette in 1984 from afreind and i'd go to my brothers car and pop in his cars cassette player and would play this song over and over all night, just thinking about life growing up.....Those were the Good old days , good and sad memories miss the 80's
Glad I got to see these guys live. It just happened to be the night in 1984 in Springfield IL when Steven Tyler fell off the stage an hour into their set. It was mentioned in Rolling Stones and in the biography Walk This Way.
That's not Brad Delp singing. It's Fran Cosmo who would later sing in Boston on the Walk On album. Brad Delp does do some backing vocals on a couple other songs on the album. And yes, the Razor & Tie CD placed the vocal intro at the end of the previous track.
I always loved this song especially the thunder drumming of Mike DeRosier, formerly of Heart. The drums and bass are so tight and Barry's guitar sounds awesome .... really like the outro guitar solo and the shift in time signature.
I heard this song a few times on the radio way back in the early 80's and never forgot it, I have been trying to find it since then and I just did, WOW I'm so missing that Era :(
Freeze the video during the solo around 2:42, when the drummer does a fill. Pause on the drummer's side profile when he looks to his right and tell me he doesn't look like Michael Ian Black with a pencil mustache.
Had this cassette playing in my Walkman for most of my junior year in HS. It was my escape in my mind! Cant even begin to express what hearing this means to me.
Orion was the first band I ever saw live. It was them and Face to Face at a free show at India Point Park in Providence RI back in 1984. They were really good and I remember Barry being real good that day. I wish I was back there, lol.
@@TheEWFX29 . . Cool. I'll do that ! ... For the hell of it, look up the band/videos under FACEDANCER: "Time Bomb" .. "Red Shoes". They were an early 80s band from Baltimore that never got enough pub & acclaim, due to their management/handlers. I saw them in a mid-sized venue in Philly, and they SMOKED it !! Found their cassette for a BUCK in a "Woolworth's" once ! ..lolz. ♡
@@tracyhall6195 I will have to. Just read about then, they were from Rhode Island I'm from Mass. I don't really remember them but might have seen them open for somebody with all the shows I have seen in Providence I just might have.
@@Gripnrip611 I'm pretty sure that Brad is listed as the vocalist in the credits but you are right about no Tom. From what I've heard Tom had kind of left the rest of the band out in no man's land after Dont Look Back
I've always liked this song but I especially like that the video was shot at Lynn beach and the restaurant scene is the tides restaurant, a north shore landmark that's been there ever since I can remember
Great to own the LP. Bought it when it was released back in the 80s... and as already said, this is basically "Boston without Tom". A precious album for me, in my opinion most certainly "Boston-class". They would get together again and do an "Orion The Hunter II"
"Orion the Hunter" (on Portrait, 1984, charts: #57) was the only official "OTH" album ever issued by the band. ... "OTH: 2", or "The Lost Demos of Fran Cosmo (vocals) / Bruce Smith (bass)" were recorded for the 2nd "OTH" album, which was never released. ... *4 songs were uploaded to FranCosmoMusic's You Tube channel. . . (SOURCE: "OTH" band "Wiki" file).
The whole album is great. This is of course my favorite song on the album , but the rest of the songs are top notch also. Love music from the’80s. It was a great decade for music.
In addition to the Boston boys, Brad, Barry, and Fran, Orion The Hunter had an awesome drummer by the name of Michael Derosier. Not only was his timing impreccable, he had a very unique style. He also reminded me a bit of John Bonham because he really pounded the drums hard. Michael is best known as the original drummer for Heart and a co-writter of the song Barracuda. (Michael and Roger Fisher wrote most of the music, while Ann and Nancy wrote the lyrics for it.)
Jon Blackers The info you provided is only partially correct. First of all, the drummer you are speaking of is Kat Hendrikse (not Hendriksen). Secondly, Heart actually had 4 session drummers on their 1st album "Dreamboat Annie". These 4 drummers were Michael Derosier, Dave Wilson, Duris Maxwell, and Kat Hendrikse. Michael Derosier played drums on "White Lightning and Wine" and "Sing Child Sing". Dave Wilson played drums on "Magic Man", Duris Maxwell played drums on "How Deep It Goes", and Kat Hendrikse played drums on the remaining songs. After "Dreamboat Annie" was completed, the band made Michael Derosier their full-time drummer and he joined them on tour.
The drummer for Heart that really sounded like Bonham was Denny Carmassi ! Derosier is great, but listen to the bass drums here... Carmassi would never want to sound like that.
In 1985 Fran Cosmo and Barry began Orion the Hunter.Michael DeRosier, the former drummer for Heart played drums. That's Fran on Vocals who I believe, wrote several of the songs on the album. and yes Anton... he sure does have it!
Woke up this morning and you were gone Found your note by the telephone You said goodbye I won't be back this way I guess in time Ill figure it out The flame burned and flickered out You sped away and you burned down the highway So you ran (you keep on runnin') took the heart of a lonely man I hope you'd say but now you've gone away Seemed like I never got a hold on you The harder I tried the more desperate I grew I should have known I couldn't change your heart You once said you need to be free Oh babe you could have been with me You fade away like the sun turning to darkness So you ran (you keep on runnin') took the heart of a lonely man I hope you'd say but now you've gone away In this life we might find our way But love is more than just day to day Why (Echo) why why why So you ran So you ran So you ran Baby I wonder who your with tonight Can he save you from the sacrifice Will he love you hold you For another day Or is it just a stop on your lonely highway Baby So you ran (you keep on runnin') took the heart of a lonely man So you ran I hope you'd say but now you've gone away
Fran Cosmo was a helluva singer. Hearing him and Brad Delp singing together at a Boston concert in '94 was a complete eargasm. Their alternating, searing vocals and harmonies left scorched earth!
I remember a local radio station playing this on and off for about a month and then burying it. Yet, 30 years later, you still hear Billy effing Squier?
Damm this such a great band and song! Saw them a few years ago under the voice of Boston and I was sho ked that they sang this song. It was an awesome show! And super packed!
Orlando Rodriguez Jr that's because the vocalist of Boston and Orion are One of the same. Great sound! But there you go, and by the way, it was in the top 15 here in S.A. Texas.
Fran Cosmo was the vocalist of both this band and Boston later. Not to be confused with the more prominently known Brad Delp who was the singer on Boston's signature tracks.
Man. That sure -looks- like actress Linda Fiorentino. She was in movies such as "Vision Quest", "The Last Seduction", "Men in Black", and "Dogma". She was labeled as "difficult to work with", and her Hollywood career flamed out around 2000 at the age of 40. ... So,, she was PERFECT for this video vixen role, as it turned out (..IF that is truly her) !
Always loved this song. Fran Cosmo's vocals are incredible, Barry Goudreau's guitar solo full of heartbreak and emotion. Just amazing!! Fran is on fire; he brings a certain Geddy Lee style to the microphone. IMHO he was the only logical choice for Tom Scholz for recruitment as a lead singer in Boston along with Brad Delp, who will live on in my heart forever.
It's a catchy little 80s pop song, that primarily falls back on the sweet chorus. Certainly not Boston quality, kinda dated. But if I'm cruising around and it comes on, I'm pumping up volume.
GREAT song, MAJOR personal significance! To quote Miles Goodwin 'words are sometimes hard to find, but silence can be so unkind'. An old acquaintance with EXTREMELY cruel intentions re-introduced me and a mutual acquaintance from childhood, knowing that she had already been planning to move 1,000 miles from home, but it totally BLEW UP IN THE FACE OF the ex-'friend' who tried to set her (a woman so beautiful that few men see past her looks) and me (a widower who knew how to love someone like her) up to be CRUSHED by 'impossible' love. She tried to hide her feelings, until she learned that I was already planning to buy a winter home not far from where she was going. It took 18 months to figure it all out, but the attempt to hurt both of us BACKFIRED bigtime. Starting in 2019, the 'Goodbye Girl' and me will be on the beach in the winters while our ex-'friend' trudges through lake-effect snow. LOL
I wonder why this song didn't make it big and it should have. A very underrated band in Orion The Hunter also. It's a really good jam. This song brings Boston back to the jammin' scene. Great guitar solo. Listen to this song loud!!!!
I have it too, buried in a closet somewhere, since I haven't listened to any cassette in years. Was lucky enough to find an import CD of it 15 - 20 yes ago. However, as good as So You Ran was, I have to differ with you in that it was the best song. My far and away fave was/is Dreamin'. With that pounding beat and the way Barry shreds in his solo, that song's climax was as good as it gets. I'd listen and be transfixed and transported to another sphere every time. Amazing masterpiece of work hardly anyone knows about. Also the ballad Dark and Stormy was great MO song. 😉 Sad they aren't on Spotify. So You Ran was until 2 years or so ago, but it was taken away.
Great tune! Great band! Too bad there was never a follow up album...it's now October of 2023 and I just saw Fran Cosmo and Anthony play at a benefit show in Binghamton, NY...they were awesome! 🎸
The vinyl album version definitely has the intro vocals to So You Ran. This exact same thing happened on ELO's Face The Music for the song Evil Woman. The instrumental intro to Evil Woman was mistakingly placed at the end of the previous song, Waterfall, on the cd (non-remastered version). It's a mistake that pops up every once in a while when record companies do not "proof-read" their transfers from album to cd.

A great song with the added bonus of a nice 80s UJM.
Me too!!!
The song still has a place in my heart. If you wasn't there back then you'll never understand
Amen to that.
Agree 100%
I love this song. When I first heard it I thought it was Boston. I was living in San Diego and it brings back some great memories
I wasn't there back .. But i understand.
I was. I do.
Lead Vocals are out of this world great and the harmonies just kill it with so much power. Can’t beat the choruses from the 80’s

Really wish this was on Spotify, so underrated
Who is actually viewing this in 2020? Awesome song. This group was so underrated.
2021, brother. Immediately popped into my mind when I saw Rick Beato's video on the 'Best Vocal Intros In Rock"
Me and in 2021 too! Forever 80's!
Barry has a new album...
i love this video and usually go back in time once a week to the 80's, if i had a time machine i'd stay there permanantly lol
Ba Ba Booey!
There will never be another time when music will be as powerful as it was back then
Can we bring back the 80's please?
one more trip in the time machine
Perhaps the best Boston album, Boston never made
this song should have 3 million views... Great 80s tune
Love this song and band 🎉

This song sits in my oddities playlist with Streets “If Love Should Go” and Kim Mitchell’s “Go for Soda”. Don’t forget Tony Carey’s “Fine Fine Day.”
..Tony Carey ! 😃 ..with "Planet P..Project" ! 👍 1983's "Why Me ?!" is *my* jam !! 🤘😎👍
You have great taste! 😌😉
Damn good songs
I really wish this band had stayed together. They were a great band!
I remember having Barry's email address...wished him a happy birthday. He said thanks!
I LOVE THIS SONG! And it reminds me that there were TWO guitarists in Boston. Sorry Tom, love you too.
Another great tune from 1984. If I were forced to pick one year to only have music from, it would probably be that year
A Denver tune I call it as I was living there at the time
1984 remains perhaps the greatest year in music. A year of giants. The quality (and quantity) of talent is unbelievable today.
@@TRKEWEENAW Arvada here lol
‘86 was also a great year. For me it really is a toss up between ‘84 and ‘86.

Raise your hand if you were fortunate enough to catch these guys in 1984, when they opened up for Aerosmith on their Back in the Saddle Tour.
Had to wait out a heavy rain storm to see that concert on Navy Island in Minnesota.
I missed this concert But I was lucky enough to see Boston with 3 of the original members in '86.

DeRosier is a terrific drummer
That Chrysler B body isn't too shabby either.

There's a reason this sounds like Boston. 3 members are in the band/were in the band.
The mullets and mustaches are pretty awesome...

Woke up this morning and you were gone
Found your note by the telephone
You said goodbye
I won't be back this way
I guess in time Ill figure it out
The flame burned and flickered out
You sped away and you burned down the highway
So you ran (you keep on runnin')
took the heart of a lonely man
I hope you'd say
but now you've gone away
Seemed like I never got a hold on you
The harder I tried the more desperate I grew
I should have known I couldn't change your heart
You once said you need to be free
Oh babe you could have been with me
You fade away like the sun turning to darkness
So you ran (you keep on runnin')
took the heart of a lonely man
I hope you'd say
but now you've gone away
In this life we might find our way
But love is more than just day to day
Why (Echo) why why why
So you ran
So you ran
So you ran
Baby
I wonder who your with tonight
Can he save you from the sacrifice
Will he love you hold you
For another day
Or is it just a stop on your lonely highway
Baby
So you ran (you keep on runnin')
took the heart of a lonely man
So you ran
I hope you'd say
but now you've gone away
Have this on cassette,Still blasting it in 2022,the vocals are amazing 🤘
Fran Cosmo was a helluva singer. Hearing him and Brad Delp singing together at a Boston concert in '94 was a complete eargasm. Their alternating, searing vocals and harmonies left scorched earth!
Pa-chan Saw them do that in 2003. It was Awesome!
She kinda' looks like Mick Jagger, 0:23 stepping off the tour 🚍 bus. 😄 🤘
..or is it more like Harry Styles ?! 😅 🍉🍚
My music professor sent me here after seeing my name. I'm impressed!!!
Cool AF name, bro ! ♡
That's my uncle Bruce on bass!! Badass!
No way
@@JacksonDang04 Way. (assuming he's telling the truth)
And my cousin Michael on drums
My son, Nestor.. was there in spirit.
I was the director of the video, I was 8 at the time.
"THIS WEEK ON FRIDAY'S NIGHT VIDEOS!!!..."
Wait all week to watch an hour program and they may or may not play at least one good song,lol.
As a kid I can remember staying up till 11pm on Friday nights to watch.
@@plumerjr YES!!! We didn't have MTV because we lived in the boonies and that was my only video fix!!!!
I too remember seeing this on NBC Friday Night Videos
whoa never heard this. Prime AOR for sure!
I remember a local radio station playing this on and off for about a month and then burying it. Yet, 30 years later, you still hear Billy effing Squier?
Ain't that the truth?!!
Damm this such a great band and song! Saw them a few years ago under the voice of Boston and I was sho ked that they sang this song. It was an awesome show! And super packed!
Orlando Rodriguez Jr that's because the vocalist of Boston and Orion are One of the same. Great sound! But there you go, and by the way, it was in the top 15 here in S.A. Texas.
Fran Cosmo was the vocalist of both this band and Boston later. Not to be confused with the more prominently known Brad Delp who was the singer on Boston's signature tracks.
Man. That sure -looks- like actress Linda Fiorentino. She was in movies such as "Vision Quest", "The Last Seduction", "Men in Black", and "Dogma". She was labeled as "difficult to work with", and her Hollywood career flamed out around 2000 at the age of 40. ... So,, she was PERFECT for this video vixen role, as it turned out (..IF that is truly her) !
Some of the gang from Boston Brad Delp, Barry Goudreau and Fran Cosmo. I also love RTZ with Goudreau and Delp.
I've been looking for this song forever! Thought it was a from Jefferson Starship, since the lead singer sound a lot like Micky Thomas.
Never thought of that, but you're right.
It's Barry Goudreau
It's Fran Cosmo, who later took over the lead vocals for Boston...
terriblita308 nope Fran Cosmo
Always loved this song. Fran Cosmo's vocals are incredible, Barry Goudreau's guitar solo full of heartbreak and emotion. Just amazing!! Fran is on fire; he brings a certain Geddy Lee style to the microphone. IMHO he was the only logical choice for Tom Scholz for recruitment as a lead singer in Boston along with Brad Delp, who will live on in my heart forever.
Killer vocals.. Great Song
Wow. That Melody. Those Vocals and That Guitar !
Great song! Fran Cosmo can sure sing wow. Barry Goudreau rocks as always
Some good, kick ass Barry Goudreau right there!
Still have the cassette!! 😃👍
It's a catchy little 80s pop song, that primarily falls back on the sweet chorus. Certainly not Boston quality, kinda dated. But if I'm cruising around and it comes on, I'm pumping up volume.
GREAT song, MAJOR personal significance! To quote Miles Goodwin 'words are sometimes hard to find, but silence can be so unkind'. An old acquaintance with EXTREMELY cruel intentions re-introduced me and a mutual acquaintance from childhood, knowing that she had already been planning to move 1,000 miles from home, but it totally BLEW UP IN THE FACE OF the ex-'friend' who tried to set her (a woman so beautiful that few men see past her looks) and me (a widower who knew how to love someone like her) up to be CRUSHED by 'impossible' love. She tried to hide her feelings, until she learned that I was already planning to buy a winter home not far from where she was going. It took 18 months to figure it all out, but the attempt to hurt both of us BACKFIRED bigtime. Starting in 2019, the 'Goodbye Girl' and me will be on the beach in the winters while our ex-'friend' trudges through lake-effect snow. LOL
My favourite from this great band. Thanks for sharing.
A real treat on this album are Brad Delp’s vocals on Joanne. So sweet!!
AGREED
one of the top albums from my childhood.
had no idea how much afro hair was behind the music. :) first time seeing them.
fantastic band.
Fran Cosmo has quite a set of pipes!
That "tik-tok" beat sound could be an absolutely *torturous* alarm clock in the A.M. !! 0:01 🌄 🛏 🙉 😱 😖 ⏰️
LOved The 80's.
Still listening 2024 good song
They did a free concert at Indian Point Park in Providence in 1984. Worst sunburn I ever got but a good time just the same.

Great tune..Sounds like Boston and Starship had a baby..
Great song when times were much easier and music rocked!
That Solo is Epic !
Amazing that tiny dude could even pick up the guitar, much less make a sound on it.
... Barry's BEST !! ♡
That tiny dude was one of the bad ass guitarists of Boston. He can play quite nicely
Absolute class
I wonder why this song didn't make it big and it should have. A very underrated band in Orion The Hunter also. It's a really good jam. This song brings Boston back to the jammin' scene. Great guitar solo. Listen to this song loud!!!!
I think I heard this song once back in the 80s, but I never forgot it. So good to hear it again after all these years.
I totally understand. I was in a similar situation back then. Song real tugs on my heart strings. Such a great band!
"Playing the 🎸 ..like ringin' a f'n BELL !!" 🔔 😎 At 2:30 and on ! 💫
..The battle of the pencil-tin 80s porno mustaches ! 2:40 😂 🥸
I still have the cassette tape. This is the best song on it
So do i dude 🤘 still rockin it in 22
I have it too, buried in a closet somewhere, since I haven't listened to any cassette in years. Was lucky enough to find an import CD of it 15 - 20 yes ago. However, as good as So You Ran was, I have to differ with you in that it was the best song. My far and away fave was/is Dreamin'. With that pounding beat and the way Barry shreds in his solo, that song's climax was as good as it gets. I'd listen and be transfixed and transported to another sphere every time. Amazing masterpiece of work hardly anyone knows about. Also the ballad Dark and Stormy was great MO song. 😉
Sad they aren't on Spotify. So You Ran was until 2 years or so ago, but it was taken away.
This video deserves WAAAAAAAAAAAAY more views than it's gotten. Cheesy? Hell yes. But that's a part of its charm.
Ive looked long for this timeless classic
I came here for the tip of Ken Tamplin. This has really great vocals and great music!
OMG. I totally forgot about this tune. Glad the algorithm sent me. Reminded me of some good times
I agree. Great music from the 80's. Even my dog loves this song.
Very well crafted. Diggin Barry's mullet! Definitely should have had a Chevy Nova with that mullet!
I had this song in my head the entire time I was leafing through used vinyl at Radiation Records in Anaheim this afternoon hahaha
Great tune! Great band! Too bad there was never a follow up album...it's now October of 2023 and I just saw Fran Cosmo and Anthony play at a benefit show in Binghamton, NY...they were awesome! 🎸
Love the old boat pulling up in the end.
The vinyl album version definitely has the intro vocals to So You Ran.
This exact same thing happened on ELO's Face The Music for the song Evil Woman. The instrumental intro to Evil Woman was mistakingly placed at the end of the previous song, Waterfall, on the cd (non-remastered version). It's a mistake that pops up every once in a while when record companies do not "proof-read" their transfers from album to cd.
